Chapter 420 - 392: Turns Out to Be a Divine-level Talent
"""Cliff Walker Backpack plus Flying Army made Da Fei’s three-man team easily avoid the ambush ahead. And after using the Spiderman Artifact, Da Fei didn’t have to take risks on the ground anymore, flying and weaving through the dense, dangerous thorny forests like it was his personal realm!
Undoubtedly, players with God-level Reconnaissance Technique are the pinnacle among adventure players at present stage! Of course, they will remain at the pinnacle for a long stage in the future as well! Not to mention, Da Fei also had the assistance of two Divine Skills of the hidden profession, Sentinel. It could be said that as long as it wasn’t a combat instance, nothing could stop Da Fei.
And now, Da Fei finally arrived at the end of his journey, a fruit chestnut enveloped in a golden halo in the thorny grove, with countless beetles lurking around it. Was this a stance for a final showdown with the player?
Tamilia spoke in a deep voice, "This is the Holy Vine Heart. The golden light on the outside is the Divine Power Barrier of the Holy Vine, protecting the seed from being destroyed by Demon Worms and any external interference. Hero, if you are ready, I will close the seed’s barrier. Once the barrier is closed, the Demon Worm will surely try to destroy the seed madly. Hero, make sure to succeed in acquiring it before the seed is destroyed!"
So that’s how it is. For ordinary players, it might be quite a challenge, but for a tech-savvy dude like me, it’s actually a cinch!
Da Fei positioned Little Fei properly, nodded, and said, "Ready, let’s begin!"
Tamilia solemnly waved her magic wand, and with a flash, the golden halo outside the seed collapsed with a roar, "Barrier closed!"
—System Prompt: Gardener Tamilia has alarmed the enemies, battle begins!
This is the moment! Before all the Demon Worms had time to react, Little Fei appeared from the void plane and grabbed the seed at once!
—System Prompt: Your reconnaissance spirit eagle Little Fei has picked up the Holy Vine Heart!
Da Fei burst into laughter, "Miss Gardener, I succeeded!"
Such lightning-fast efficiency left Tamilia dumbfounded! But NPCs are just NPCs, after pretending for a moment she immediately calmed down with joy and said, "Retreat!"
A space gate immediately appeared. Watching the swarm of insects rushing in like a tide, Da Fei laughed heartily and entered. When the scene changed, Da Fei found himself back in front of the wooden house in the Vine Space.
Simple! Just so simple! Wahahaha!
At this moment, Tamilia was so agitated that she couldn’t control herself, "Hero! Finding this place is indeed not by chance; your capability is undeniable! Entrusting you with the Holy Vine Heart is indeed the most reliable choice. I am willing to follow you, hero, and make every effort to cultivate the next generation of the Holy Vine for you!"
—System Prompt: You have completed the task "Collect Holy Vine Heart," and you gained +1 million experience. Your city gained the Divine-level Vine Forest Master and Master-level Gardener Tamilia as new members.
Da Fei’s eyebrows jumped in surprise! She really pledged herself to him! This is a talent for territory management! A divine-level talent, oh, goodness! In a joyful surprise, Da Fei immediately checked her attributes.
—Tamilia: Manager of Vine Space, born from the essence of the Holy Vine Flower, a Vine Demon whose life is integrated with the Holy Vine. She possesses divine-level ability in cultivating vine plants. At the same time, she is also a master-level gardener with extensive experience in cultivating various flowers, trees, and plants.
A non-military-type NPC unit. Attack 19, Defense 11, Damage 11-19, Health 150, Mana 300, Attack Speed 12, Magic Resistance 70%, Stamina 120, Skills: Flying Creature, Holy Vine Space Manager, Divine-level Vine Forest Master, Master-level Gardener, Holy Vine Symbiosis.
These are the attributes of this god-tier talent!
The so-called non-military type units refer to regular city NPCs. Here is a simple introduction to the differences and similarities between city NPCs and military units. The similarity is that both can join the player’s team and fight together with the player, enjoying the bonus of the player’s hero attributes and hero skills. For example, Ted, who once fought alongside Da Fei.
But the difference is that city NPCs do not require command power, and each NPC occupies one of the player’s tactical positions alone. For instance, Da Fei, now at level 40, has 5 tactical positions, plus an additional one due to guild president bonus, totaling 6 tactical positions, meaning Da Fei can only lead 6 NPCs to battle. This is completely incomparable to military units like Charming Emperor, Artillery Emperor, Banshee, etc., which are all deemed as one unit category, can use one tactical position to carry hundreds of them.
But it’s okay, as NPCs have extremely high intelligence, very flexible use, and they can also not occupy the player’s tactical positions, freeing up space for the player to lead troops. However, if done so, NPCs will not receive the player’s attributes and skill bonuses. From this level, players can actually lead countless NPCs. For example, in city defense battles, when the player lord has nothing left to defend with, the last resort is to summon all the city’s NPCs.
Then, NPCs can go wherever they want, while military units must reach leader-level to be able to operate independently from the hero, and only leader-level military units can reach the intelligence level of NPCs.
And of course, an even bigger difference is that NPCs’ attributes and skills are all over the place. If a player can become good friends with an NPC possessing mind-blowing skills, that effect is absolutely just as good as recruiting a god-level vice hero.
...
While Da Fei was reveling in pleasant thoughts, another thunderstorm exploded in the sky.
Da Fei immediately snapped back to reality; it was time to leave! However, how to get back? The key was how to bring this god-level gardener back? Could this expired magic wand be used for the return trip?
At this moment, Tamilia became passionate and said, "Master, are you interested in teaching the invader a lesson?"
Da Fei exclaimed, "How is that possible?!"
Tamilia shook her head, speaking solemnly, "Master’s collection action was faster than I imagined, which afforded me a lot of time. I have ample time to release the Holy Vine from the Sealing Space, and let the Holy Vine unleash its last powers to fiercely strike at the invading enemy — rather than let it be destroyed in weakening pain, it’s better to let it fully unleash its thousand-year-old fury!"
Da Fei’s eyebrow twitched, "What about your safety?"
Tamilia smiled faintly, "Master, my life is in symbiosis with the Holy Vine Heart, as long as the Holy Vine Heart doesn’t perish, I won’t really die; death to me is just a sleep!"
Oh, I see! Fine, as long as you don’t die, anything goes, dude can also die back to revive!
Da Fei laughed and said, "Okay! Let’s do it your way!"
I would like to see the power of the Holy Vine! If it’s awesome, I’ll cultivate it vigorously! And by the way, let’s see how big the difference is between me and NPC Demon forces.
Tamilia nodded, "Then I will go conduct the unlocking ceremony. Master, please rest well."
Rest? How is that possible! Idle doing nothing is still idle; I’ll go hunt for 3rd-class, 2nd-class seeds! Gotta make full use of time, wahahaha!
...
Elorin Commerce Bureau.
The undercover tycoon Endo Shinichiro flipped through the commission task column of the Dragon Cavalry Chamber of Commerce while waiting for Invincible Soldier and others to gather, and lead him to accept chamber of commerce commission tasks for leveling up.
—Elorin Thief Guild elder issued an indefinite A-level chamber of commerce commission task "Bounty on the One-Eyed Pirate Barth."
—Elorin Sunrise Hotel owner issued an indefinite A-level chamber of commerce commission task "High-level purchase of blood shark fins for gourmet ingredients."
—Elorin Starlight Jewelry Store issued an indefinite A-level chamber of commerce commission task "High-level purchase of Blue Bay Pearl Scallops."
Looking at this array of A-level commissions on the chamber mission column, the shock in Ono’s heart could be imagined! During the open beta, only guilds of medium standard occasionally had a few A-level commissions, yet Da Fei’s guild actually churned out so many A-level commissions! How high is this guild status? Clearly, this guild also only had a few people, how could they achieve such great accomplishments in such a short time?
Is it the effort of Da Fei alone? Or is it the result of Da Fei appointing NPCs as the vice president? What would Mr. Igarashi think seeing these commissions, comparing them to their chamber’s specialty golden spearfish, octopus?
The gap was truly too large! An urgent sense of urgency surged up in Ono’s heart, and he couldn’t help but clench his fists.
Just then, there was a cheer from behind, "Brother Hao! Brother Hao, we waited long!"
"Brother Hao, I specifically turned the ship around midway to pick you up!"
"Everyone, greet Brother Hao!"
"Brother Hao, we love you!"
Ono couldn’t help but smile knowingly, the breakthrough was in this group! So he slowly turned around, smiled faintly, and said, "Thank you everyone! You’ve worked hard!"
Invincible Soldier exclaimed excitedly, "Brother Hao, don’t be polite with us. Come on, we’ll take Brother Hao to do C-level tasks first, everyone has to perform well!"
(Sorry everyone for the long wait, caught a bad cold, head, eyes, ears, and heart all hurt, gotta take care of the body first...) (To be continued.
