Chapter 1: Mechanical Alchemist

　　 The oblique sun setting lengthened the shadow of the pub signboard,
　　 The chunky boss counted the wine account behind the counter,
　　Guests drinking ale and looking at the stage,
　　The poet holding the piano is singing lazily:
　　 "... When all legends write the first chapter
　　 It turns out that the so-called heroes are the same as ours. "
Xiao Ling likes this poem by Xiu Xi Rui, this poem has a taste of rivers and lakes, heroes don't ask for the source, and the term hero is just a respect for a group of people. The so-called hero is actually ordinary. People make no difference.
　　 Xiao Ling is holding a dog's tail grass, lying on the old willow tree outside the small town of Braka da Virgin, leisurely spending the afternoon time. Recently, the mining is too tired, it is rare to take a rest. Near dusk, the sunset lazily scattered the red glow on the town, and the evening wind blew through, setting off a touch of yellow sand.
　　Men and women in town come and go, mages, priests wearing robes, paladins wearing silver-white armor, barbarians, elves, humans, busy creating value for game companies.
　　 They are either ready to go, or seeking a team, shouting loudly, the whole Viking town is very lively.
　　 "Thirty-five-level all-purple suit high-fire fire mage begging for ashes forest, some dense."
　　 "Forty level high anti-thick thick blood violent barbarian warrior begs to build Elasi Marsh,,,,,,"
　　 "Forty-level elite team needs to treat 500+ priests, some roar."
Looking at these busy players, Xiao Ling is envious. When can I really start leveling? When I think of the experience of just entering the game, I feel depressed. In all occupations, the warlock is a marginal occupation, and the major tasks The least needed is the warlock, because the damage output of the warlock can never be better than the mage. Many control skills are only effective for some mobs. When they encounter BOSS, they only stare. Moreover, the warlock is a demon profession, except for Brakada, NPCs in other places are not willing to issue missions to the warlock.
Although the warlock is on the edge, some missions still require a warlock. The skills of the three classes of the demon warlock, the destroyer warlock, and the pain warlock are very useful in the task. If the warlock player’s consciousness and response are good, and the equipment is not bad, the role is completely It is as good as the mage called the soul of the battlefield.
　　 And the three-line sorcerer is the of single practice, and the leveling speed when single-player leveling is no worse than that of the thief known as the king of the wild.
　　 is also a warlock, alchemist is the edge of the edge.
　　Alchemists are divided into magic potions alchemists and mechanical alchemists.
　　The magic potion alchemist enhances his strength by refining various potions. Their spell damage is very low, and after drinking the potion, they can only barely reach 80%-90% of the average magician's spell damage, but the potions they make are extremely expensive.
　　In Bradada’s main city of Edins, an enhanced potion made by a high-level potion alchemist can be auctioned for a high price of one or two thousand gold coins.
　　If the magic potion alchemist is still useful, the mechanical alchemist Xiao Ling chose is the waste residue in the waste residue.
　　The mechanical alchemist's magic damage is only about 40% of that of a normal warlock.
The talent of mechanical alchemists is engineering. They can make mechanical puppets. Each mechanical alchemist can carry a mechanical puppet. The mechanical puppets also have a certain combat power. For example, a first-level first-order mechanical imp, the spell damage output is about 80% of the mechanical alchemist, which can make up for the defect that the mechanical alchemist's spell damage is not high to a certain extent.
　　A mechanical alchemist plus a mechanical puppet, the combined spell damage of the two can be as long as that of a normal warlock, if the mechanical puppet's rank is high enough, then the mechanical alchemist is enough to disregard any legal profession.
　　Xiao Ling originally entered the game with such illusions, and also happily learned the four production skills of mining, metallurgy, forging, and engineering, preparing to create his own exclusive mechanical puppet.
But the illusion quickly broke, and after more than a month, many players have risen to more than forty levels, entered the major copies, put on high-end blue and purple outfits, and Xiao Ling's level remained at the same level. level.
　　 There is no mechanical puppet, and mechanical alchemists are waste scum, which cannot be leveled at all.
　　 But how easy is it to make a mechanical puppet?
　　Impact metallurgy needs money, forging needs money, and engineering even needs money. The money earned by Xiao Ling every day by mining ore smashed into this bottomless abyss.
　　One month and a half, Xiao Ling's four production skills have been greatly improved, but the level has not been upgraded.
　　 Extraction: Guru level, skill proficiency 307/500
　　Metallurgy: Advanced, skill proficiency 175/300
　　Forging: Intermediate, skill proficiency 102/150
　　Engineering: Elementary, skill proficiency 47/50
The only thing Xiao Ling is proud of is her own mining and metallurgical skill levels. Currently, the highest mining level except for Xiao Ling’s master-level mining, there are only two senior miners in the entire server. It takes time to become a master-level miner. day.
　　 Fewer metallurgy, only three to the intermediate level, only Xiao Ling is the senior.
If anyone could dig a month of mine in a primary mine outside Bracada, work for more than 13 hours a day, and have as good luck as Xiao Ling, digging three pieces of purple gold in succession, he might Can also become a master miner.
　　If anyone can risk the failure and put three pieces of purple gold into the smelting furnace without hesitation, and successfully smelt into purple gold, he may also become a senior metallurgist.
　　 But no one has such good luck, and no one dares to do so.
　　With the professional certification issued by the system, Xiao Ling can get a good position in any big guild and get an enviable salary, but Xiao Ling is not here. His goal is to become the first person in the game, not the first person in the production profession, but the first person in rank and strength.
　　If it is not master-level mining and high-level metallurgy, Xiao Ling may have deleted the number and retrained long ago, so it will not be so difficult.
　　 Xiao Ling stroked the smooth surface of the purple gold nugget, like a lover caressing himself. The dazzling light of the smelted purple gold nugget was Xiao Ling's hope.
　　 Zijin: third-order rare ore, can be used in metallurgy, forging, engineering.
　　 It is said that an unsmelted purple gold ore once sold a high price of two thousand gold coins in the auction house in Bracada, and only one piece appeared. Xiao Ling had to sigh his luck. On that day, he dug his head in the primary mine and found a piece of lilac ore, which was shoveled down with three mines. A series of system prompts made Xiao Ling confused. He jumped directly from the senior to the guru level, and the three purple ores in the package made Xiao Ling excited.
　　Know that this is a rare ore.
　　Ore is divided into three levels: ordinary, rare, and precious. Each level is divided into five grades. The common is more common. Rare ore is quite rare, and the third-order rare is rare. Xiao Ling has not seen any rare ore above 3rd order, let alone a gem.
　　What happens if the purple gold nuggets are made into mechanical puppets?
　　Three purple gold pieces are enough to make a mechanical puppet.
But trouble also ensues. Only after training the engineering to the intermediate level can you make the first-level puppet mechanical imp, Xiao Ling estimated that to impact the intermediate engineering, you need to smash another 3,000 gold coins into it. We also need to purchase drawings for making mechanical puppets. A drawing of a second-order mechanical imp on the market requires two thousand gold coins.
　　 That is to say, if Xiao Ling wants to make a mechanical imp, UU reading www.uukanshu. com needs at least five thousand gold coins.
　　This is five thousand gold coins! Xiao Ling turned his eyes white. He dug his head and dug mine for more than a month. He did not count the value of three pieces of purple gold before earning about three thousand gold coins, and still under good luck. It is also possible for a guru to mine a day and only earn more than ten gold coins. After all, mining and luck have a great relationship.
　　Ordinary intermediate miners can earn about 20 gold a day, and senior miners can earn 50 gold. As for the master level, no one has ever counted it. Xiao Ling thinks that it should be no problem to earn more than 100 gold a day.
　　Xiao Ling had to spend more than a month to forge a mechanical devil. By that time, I am afraid that many players have already risen to more than 50 levels.
　　 Xiao Ling glanced at the rankings of the human world. The highest level is a barbarian warrior named Mad Dragon, who has reached the forty-ninth level, leaving all people behind. The second place is a priest named Hua Wu, only forty-seventh level, but it is not easy to enter the second place in the ranking as a female priest. Xiao Ling guessed that she should be a shadow priest, otherwise the upgrade cannot be so fast.
　　Compared with them, Xiao Ling was a little bit self-confident. Xiao Ling tried to go out to fight monsters, but he couldn't even beat the first-level skeletons in the Skull Forest outside Viking Town, let alone upgrade. Moreover, Xiao Ling is accustomed to a person, has no friends, and disdains to be an experienced baby. Because of his professional relationship, his strength is too weak, and no one is willing to organize him.
　　 Mechanical alchemists without mechanical puppets are waste! Xiao Ling finally made this clear. So no matter what the cost is, you must get the mechanical puppet out!
