Chapter 440: Enlargement and Shrinkage (Happy Chinese New Year)
As an internal test user of the "Assisted Learning System", Gao Fei has learned "Mage Armor" and "Shield" after more than a week of experience.
In the future, when other mage archetypes are obtained, these two 1st-level spells can be directly shared with them without having to learn them again.
The mage profession is recognized by the heavenly people as a "junk" profession that is difficult to get started, slow to grow, and low cost-effective.
However, with the "Spell Assisted Learning System", coupled with the fact that different mage archetypes can share knowledge, further improving learning efficiency, the evaluation of mages will surely usher in a wave of highs.
From the initial entry into the game world to now, it has been almost four months in a blink of an eye.
Gao Fei's deepest feeling is that the kitchen knife profession is powerful at the beginning, but unfortunately the upper limit is too low.
For example, the higher the level of the berserker, the more clearly you can feel the ceiling above your head.
Even a strong dragon warrior is no exception.
To break through this ceiling, you can only rely on high-level magic.
Priests, warlocks, and druids can indeed master 9th-level magic, but the range of spells they can choose is too narrow and not flexible enough.
The profession that can truly embody the essence of magic is ultimately a mage who believes in "knowledge determines destiny" and has an infinite desire for knowledge.
Gao Fei's Berserker module is almost finished, and he doesn't know how long it will take to get the official version of the Mimic module.
He decided to choose a mage module to practice after completing the Berserker module.
While thinking about it, a military call came from the star screen.
Ma Yun pushed the door open and took a look, then turned back to Gao Fei and others and said, "Gather! Gather! I have to go, I'll talk to you later!"
...
The next morning, Gao Fei and Jiang Feng logged into "Savior Simulator" after breakfast.
According to the strategy provided by Qi Tian and Ma Yun, Gao Fei's level 5 "Mimic" entered Jiang Feng's Berserker module and spent a whole day helping her to clear the Dragon Bone Tower.
It is proven that high-end rum and pickled herring can indeed win the favor of astrologer Luna. With this powerful foreign aid, the difficulty of fighting the Dragon Bone Tower dropped sharply.
At the end of the day, Jiang Feng got the S-level reward profession "Dragon Warrior" as he wished.
At the same time, Wang Daqing and Ma Tao formed a team and successfully persuaded Luna to join the team and successfully cleared the Dragon Bone Tower.
In this way, Gao Fei's dream of "Red Dragon Team" has been successfully realized.
Gao Fei's "Imitator", wearing a "Mage Mask", can learn 1-ring magic.
The two scrolls given by Luna, Jiang Feng can't use them for the time being, so Gao Fei took them to copy.
After exiting the game, he didn't even care about dinner, and quickly logged into the Tiangong Library, using his game save as a voucher to borrow the same "Giant Transformation" and "Shrinkage" in the game!
...
1-ring "Giant Transformation" (School of Change): Lasts 10 minutes/level, the recipient's size increases by one level, strength +2, agility -1; defense suffers large size penalty.
1st level "Shrink" (School of Transformation): Lasts 10 minutes/level, the recipient's size is reduced by one level, Agility +2, Strength -1; Defense gains a small size bonus.
...
The reason why it is so urgent is that Gao Fei has realized that these two spells are very important for his tactical framework!
After learning "Giant Transformation", Gao Fei can turn into a super-large red dragon in reality. Not only will the strength attribute and weapon damage dice be improved, but all size-related abilities, such as "Earthquake" and "Dive and Crush", including the two specialties "Mastered Collision" and "Horror Shock", will also benefit from it.
After learning "Shrink", you can first cooperate with "Rampage" to maximize agility and flexibility.
There is also a more clever way to use it, which is the combination of "Mage Mask" + "Druid Mask".
With the help of "Druid Mask", Gao Fei can turn into a small animal, such as a bat and an ocelot, with a body length of no less than two feet, and it cannot be transformed into a smaller one.
However, with the "shrinking technique", Gao Fei can shrink again in the above transformation state and become a super small animal with a body length of one foot.
Ordinary house cats, and even larger mice, are about this size.
What are the benefits of becoming a kitten?
Being small has its own advantages, just look at the popular tiger...
Of course, Gao Fei does not intend to rely on his cute appearance to cheat for food and drink, or get close to cute girls who love small animals.
This double transformation tactic has some serious uses.
For example, getting into the ventilation duct, sneaking into the gangster's lair, secretly collecting criminal evidence, and eavesdropping on intelligence.
When performing such spy missions, it is inevitable to shuttle among the crowd. If you accidentally see someone's skirt, Gao Fei can only say "sorry" in advance.
He copied these two spells into his electronic spell book, and then modified the auxiliary learning sequence list.
"Shield" and "Mage Armor" have been mastered. According to the original sequence, the next thing to learn is "Magic Tricks", "Dancing Lights" and "Repair".
Sorry, these three will be put aside.
"Giant" and "Shrink" will be put in the queue first, set as the first and second priority respectively.
After arranging the learning sequence, we need to optimize the intelligence attribute to maximize the learning efficiency.
Gao Fei's current attribute configuration is as follows:
Strength 20/+5, Agility 14, Constitution 16, Intelligence 14, Perception 14, Charisma 15
Using the point-washing skills of the Tiangong SWAT and the imitator, Gao Fei spent an hour adjusting the attributes to:
Strength 14, Agility 14, Constitution 16, Intelligence 20/+5, Wisdom 14, Charisma 15
In fact, it is just an exchange of strength and intelligence.
If you switch to physical fitness and intelligence, you can stack the intelligence attribute to 21 points, but it is not necessary.
If intelligence is 20 or 21, the correction provided is +5, and there is no difference in the efficiency of assisting learning.
Calculated based on 20 points of intelligence attribute, it takes Gao Fei 33.6 hours to learn a level 1 spell, which is equivalent to four days of sleep.
In other words, it only takes a little more than a week for him to master the "Growing Technique" and "Shrinking Technique".
…
On Thursday morning, Gao Fei and Jiang Feng returned to the Berserker module and began to attack Chapter 13 of "The Revenge of the Prince", which is the last large-scale battle of the entire module.
Ice Ring Lake, this lake formed by the movement of glaciers is located in the north of the Jotunheim Frost Tundra. The water is in a ring shape. The clear lake water is very cold, but it will not freeze under the influence of magic.
There is a large island in the center of the ice-ringed lake. The tall ice tower standing on the island is the so-called "Ice Tower Fortress" - the castle and arcane laboratory of Frost Giant Lord Gelmir.
This magic-reinforced ice-shaped spire reaches a height of a hundred feet above ground alone, and has a frozen spiral staircase that leads to a secret laboratory hidden deep beneath the surface.
According to the account of the captured frost giant, when he was on duty on the first floor of the ice tower, he would occasionally hear the roar of the dragon faintly coming from below the floor - a howl full of pain and fear.
On the last day of 2021, I wish all book friends a happy New Year and all the best!
In the new year, I hope you will still be with me.
