Chapter 149 -144: Resetting Points to Become an Intermediate Navigator
Storm! Is this task tailor-made for me? Da Fei incredulously asked, “Are you sure it’s a storm?”
Catherine sighed, “I don’t know what it’s like in the Demon World, but this situation would definitely be a storm in the surface world!”
Anwen sighed, “It does seem like a storm. Captain, you better prepare for the storm quickly.”
Da Fei suddenly turned wooden. Though my special skill is Storm Navigation, every time I encounter a storm, the ship’s Durability limit drops by a thousand, and the Flying’s Durability is less than a thousand now!
Da Fei looked around; the Blood Sea was vast with surging waves, not a single island to take shelter! Da Fei exclaimed in horror, “Can we make it through?”
Catherine frowned, “Our ship underwent major repairs before setting out, and we’re fully staffed with sailors. As long as repairs are timely, the loss should not be as great as before.”
Da Fei sighed in his heart and waved grandly, “All hands prepare for the storm! All troops get into the cabin!”
Katrina immediately shouted to the sailors, “Lower the sails! Lower the sails! Store away the items on deck, and get all the spare tools and repair materials ready!”
Watching the busy scene on the deck, Da Fei was internally conflicted. If I had just completed the task of the Pool of Radiance normally, and fixed the ship before attacking, I wouldn’t fear the damn storm! Now all I can do is grit my teeth and withstand it! Right, I also have a notebook from Makar that upgrades to the Intermediate Navigator! Just level up one more, and my professional specialty, Storm Navigation, will be extra secure!
— Navigator Promotion Experience Notes: Use this item, and you will spend a skill point to raise your profession level to “Intermediate Navigator.”
Apoo! Da Fei spat out a mouthful of old blood! I don’t have any Skill Points left!
Da Fei shivered as he crumpled the notes in a fit of despair. I thought I calculated my steps finely throughout the journey, but to be out of skill points at a crucial moment! Oh heavens, are you kidding me?
Anwen sighed, “Captain, what’s troubling you?”
Oh yeah! Magical old lady, you must have a way, right? You definitely have a way, right? Aren’t you a retired mentor? Giving away dozens of skill points is a piece of cake for a mentor!
Da Fei, with a face full of pleading tears, said: “Madam, although I have prepared the Intermediate Navigator scroll for dealing with the storm, I don’t have the skill points to learn it at this critical moment! Could you think of a solution?”
See, if it weren’t for you, how could I comprehend Divine Skills? Although I’ve received a lot from you, as an elder, you should have the demeanor of an elder, right? As a thank you for comprehending a Divine Skill, giving away a Skill Book would be quite normal.
Anwen chuckled, and Da Fei’s eyelid twitched. There’s hope! Old lady, you really are the Doraemon who can fulfill all my dreams!
Anwen simply said, “What’s so difficult about that? Captain, just visit the online shop and buy a Skill Reset Potion.”
Apoo! Da Fei spat out another mouthful of old blood! NPCs truly live up to being NPCs, speaking for the game company at critical moments!
People always make mistakes, whether intentionally or unintentionally, brain fart or trembling hands, choosing the wrong skills is a common occurrence. Heroic Creation Era, being a world-class online game, whether for humanitarian care or user experience, traditional Skill Reset Potions are of course essential.
Of course, there are heavy restrictions on purchasing Skill Reset Potions. Each account can only buy one bottle per real-world month, and each bottle costs only 1000 points, that is, 1000 RMB, with the potion being account-bound and non-tradable. This prevents tycoons from arbitrarily resetting skills. Indeed, the purpose of the Skill Reset Potion is to save players who made mistakes due to shaky hands.
Although I’m a professional gamer, I haven’t earned a penny from gaming yet. I already spent a hundred yuan on three offline Divine Sanctuary items. Do I really need to spend another thousand on a Skill Reset now? I’ve already spent a thousand on lotteries! If I spend another thousand, I won’t even be able to afford instant noodles!
Da Fei sighed, “Let me think thrice!”
Damn, think thrice my ass! I’m about to become a wealthy man selling heritage to the Dragon Slayer. Though the price hasn’t been discussed yet, I shouldn’t care about this thousand! Bought it! Da Fei immediately logged into the shopping mall!
—Ding-dong! A crisp sound from the mall mailbox, Da Fei tears streaming down his face! No matter how far apart, across mountains and seas, and countless planes, the game mall is the most intimate companion for players!
Which skill should be reset? Of course, the sub-skill “Disguise” under Reconnaissance Skill, initially chosen to sneak into the Monastery, but now it’s no longer needed, and probably won’t be in the future either.
Using the potion, a flash of gold, System Prompt shows an additional Skill Point! Da Fei slapped the note in his hand that was crumpled into a ball, flash of gold!
—System Prompt: You have used 1 Skill Point on “Navigational Insights Notebook,” and have successfully advanced to Intermediate Navigator.
—Intermediate Navigator: Speed of hero’s ships on the sea is further increased by 20%, the effect stacks with Sailing Skill. Every 4 levels, the hero and the Vice Hero gain an additional free attribute point. The hero and the hero’s Vice Heroes gain an additional 200 Experience points on the sea every day.
—System Prompt: You have gained 1 free attribute point from the Intermediate Navigator professional bonus. (Note: Da Fei at level 30, Junior Navigator at every 5 levels adds 1 attribute point for a total of 6 points; Intermediate should give 7 points, hence the compensation of 1 point now)
Oh, yeah! Finally fulfilling a wish, I must say, I have never wasted money in my life. This thousand yuan was the most worthwhile spending ever.
Now let me illustrate the relationship between the Captain and the First Officer here. The First Officer, also known as the Deputy Captain, has all the navigational functions of the Captain, and their Sailing Skills assist each other (keyword: Sailing Skill). Placing Catherine, with her Master-level Navigation Skill at 120% speed and Master-level Pirate skill at 25% speed, in the First Officer position, of course, the ship’s speed primarily comes from Catherine’s higher skills, covering Da Fei’s weaker low-level navigation skill, increasing the ship speed to 145%.
But Da Fei also has a Navigator’s additional 20% ship speed, a skill the First Officer doesn’t have, so the speed stacks up again, making it 165% increase. This speed is truly terrifying, and that’s why those giant paddle ships, clueless about Sailing Skill at Pool of Radiance, are left spinning.
Preparations on the Flying are quickly and orderly completed. The seamen responsible for emergency repairs on the deck even tied cables around their waists, while those inside the cabin carried materials and tools, securing safety cables at their stations. I must say, as a player, Da Fei wouldn’t know any of this if not for Catherine.
Everything is now ready.
At this moment, thick clouds loom overhead, the Blood Sea churns violently, and a fierce wind howls dimly between the sea and sky. With sails lowered, the Flying pitches and rolls significantly amidst the waves.
Da Fei and Catherine face each other in the cockpit, both breaking out in a cold sweat. The storm hasn’t arrived yet, but its presence is already heart-stopping. This storm is definitely much stronger than the first two encountered! Could it be that the Demon World produces only fine products, even storms are a few grades higher than the surface world?
This spectacle might even be too much for me, just recently promoted to an Intermediate Navigator! Da Fei must prepare for the worst. If the ship capsizes, the mission would surely fail, and the barracks onboard would go to waste, which is a mere billion in losses. Catherine grasped the Master-level Navigation Skill, and could be the lead locomotive in towing ships for a comeback. Money is not the issue. The problem is, Didi and Lili, these two dearly nurtured little darlings would also perish, which emotionally, Da Fei finds unbearable.
While wrestling with this thought, a thunderstorm shakes the sea and sky, the whole world lit up with red lightning, and the fierce wind rises!
Da Fei shudders, Here it comes!
