A Priest's Legend Volume 1 Chapter 4-5
Chapter Four Super Mana Portion
Silence quiveringly took
up the ring emiting orange lights,carefully watching it.
The Ring of Chaos. Type:jewelry;demand
occupation:unlimited; demand level:unlimited;effect: the ring had two forms—it
could act as either a chaos ring or a holiness ring.When working as a holiness
ring,it could increase manaish treatment magic's effect by 20% and in the
meantime the wearer would antomatically stand on a camp of lawful good.While
the ring worked as a chaos ring,dark spells'damagic would be strengthened by
20% and the camp of this ring's owner would antomatically be turned into a
chaos evil.This kind of effect could be used endlessly but cooled down within a
duration of 30 minutes after last usage.
"How there could be such
a thing?"muttered Silence.If his guess turned out to be a truth,Silence
afterwords would be given an option of teaming up with people to be a competent
priest for cure or grinding alone as a evil priest. His level rose rapidly in
this way,didn't it?
Even if Silence
currently took up the third place of priests'level ranking,he was aware that it
is not worthy for himself of leveling up alone.With time going by,monsters were
harder to strike.Now he could draw up a suit of attack pattern for a monster
depending on the weakness of the monster
to kill it up until exhaustion of his mana ; nevertheless,how could he depend
on afterwards?
His attack power would
have been unable to keep up with speed of monsters'level raising.There were few
experiences if he decided to strike normal monsters while there estimately
were few health point reducement of boss
monsters until he exhausted his
mana.Although he look at this with eyes of Silence before job transfer,Silence
estimated there would be not that great change after him transfering up
nevertheless.
Therefore,if the ring
could help him do what he imagined to do:to be changed into a member of lawful
good camp to major in a divine spell for a higher level ,or to be changed into
a memeber of chaos evil to learn a dark magic.
If this is true,then he be
imagined to win advantages from both sides:either to team up with players to
challenge high level monsters or to select suitable zones to raise level.
However,now everything
was still an idea.Everthing would be clear until 40 level.
Silence put away The
Ring of Chaos in the safe-deposit box of the bank,and then put other stuffs
into a box next to it.
Out the bank,he went to a shop rather than an auction house.At
shop,he bought some necessities and some items necessary for refining portions
before he arrived at a place where his refining was taught.He was about to
refine herbs he picked a few days ago into portions to satisfy later rapid
leveling's need.
After Silence paid the
handling fee,he came to the refining hall.A look at this fimiliar place called
up those times when he was right in this game,unaware of everything,standing
stupidly here for refining portions until he accidentally triggered a hidden
task,which after finishing he gained a skill and achieved a t.i.tle of Master
alchemy.
Those players around
busy refining portions noticed someone coming in,with even n.o.body rasing a
head.Silence walked before an empty table and began refining portions.
Blood dragon gra.s.s,the
most crucial herb,was put into a crystal bottle prior to silence nervously
looking at the inside of the crystal bottle in which blue liquid ceaselessly
went up and down,causing bubbles of various colors.
Waiting for finishing refining
required an extradinary patience.Fortunately,Silence retired from the army was
able to bear it at ease.A half hour's wait later,the rolling liquid gradually
calmed down which turned from a blue one into a clearer and more transparent
one,giving off a refreshing fragrance.
Silence looked at the
bottle of portion and a stripe of smile appeared in his originally tighting
face.A bottle of super magic portion provided an extra live for manaish
job.Especially in the sunk continent,not only was super mana portion paid a
high price,but also was hard to be accessible for players only in refining.Nontheless,the success rate
of refining was very low,in addtion to which was that there is little herb
gra.s.s,causing a high cost.It is impossible for normal people to raise their
refining level to adept unless you were way too rich or under a support of a
guide,let alone level up to a master alchemist.No chances were that anyone
would be t.i.tled as a master alchemy without raw materials and needed gold coins
supported back by a large-size guide and
a little good luck.
Of course, an exception
pointed to Silence taking a hidden task after the most basical portion several
thousand times.
Diving portion inside
the bottle into quarters and putting them into a specially made crystal
bottle,Silence got prepared to begin
refining other portions.
"Excuse me,this is a
legendary super magic portion?"Asked a mage player pointing to the bottle
Silence put on the table.
Silence hesitated,and
then nodded his head.
"How is it possible?"That
mage player shouted in surprise.
The hall silent besides
crack sounds of portion bubble was no longer quiet thanks to this surprised
shouting.The other players turned to look
at surprised mage player with anger.
"What are you doing?"A
player accused him annoyedly,"don't you
konw that it is not allowed to talk loudly here? Becouse of a scream of you just now, I failed my intermediate
portion refining.Do you konw that?"
"He...He...He..."The
mage player pointed to Silence,blamed by many pairs of angry glances ,and said
with a stammer:"He said he refined up a
super magic portion."
"What!"The crowds in the
hall cried out,and then turn their eyes to the priest foolishly standing.
"How can it be
possible!I have no choice of seeking to raising my experience point but to get
prepared to be an alchemist,but now the best portion in my record was nothing
but an intermediate portion.How could he concoct a super magic portion?"A
player stared at Silence in doubt.
"Do come by yourself if
you don't believe it!"The mage pointed to the bottle on the desk,and said to
guys around him.
Silence saw so many
people here,tense arising in his mind.Altough he didn't understand why they got
affected,he still put the portion away in the package hurriedly and hurried up
out.
"Be a cheat
absolutely!"The player who just now questioned Silence laughed at that mage
player,"Otherwise what he was
running?As is konwn to all,now no one is able to concort a super magic portion.If he make it to refine that,the
most biggest guides would have to serve him as Buddha? "
"However,I apprently
recognised that was the super magic portion!The color and l.u.s.tre,the
flavor...It was exactly the same as what the instructor showed for me!"
"s.h.i.t!You want a super
mana portion so desireing that you go mad...?"
Those who just walked
forward to see the super magic portion but nothing ,and listened to their
debates.Most of those imagine in the mind:I kept trying here all the time but
had no choice to see him.What's more,judging from his dress ,he was at a level
of 30 at least.He has so high a level that it is impossible for him to spent a
lot of time to refine portion for enhancing the alchemy spell,let alone to
concort up a super mana portion!That one certainly mistaked.
However,this thing was
under the attention of someone intended .A following imformation set off to
spread out:a alchemist able to refine a super magic portion appear,as a
priest,was eatimated to have a level
between 30 and 40.The rest unknown.
Silence rushed out of
Alchemy Hall.He was really not accustomed to being paid so many people's
attentions to and had no idea of what he should do.Thereby, he just ran out so.
Silence don't konw it is
so surprising a thing to be able to concoct a super magic portion.He believed
that way too many people would be able
to gain a mastery alchemy skill.
After running
out,Silence came to a store to cost some gold coins to buy some alchemy
tools.Unfortunately,these refining tools were not better than those in Alchemy
Hall and they would go to sc.r.a.ps once used once time.What's worse, it was at a
lower chance of success.However,the most important potions had been done,other
needed but ranked-lower potions was easy for Silence to refine depending on the
mastery alchemy of Silence.
Silence was advancing on
a 40 level as all had been prepared.

One Being alone's Joy
Chapter
Five A New Tactics
Silence stood before Valley
Devil's entry and took a quiet look at that.
This was the last time to
come here and he was about to get away here shortly after he rose to get
leveled thirty-nine times(a 40 level or a level of 40).Right here topped first
Lord of Devil in the level and other monsters'level was between 35 to 38.If
silence arrived at a level of 40,the expericences he gained here killing
monsters were not in direct propotion to to the time he spent.
The best opportunity to
abtain experiences was to take tasks or to strike monsters as you were on a
adventure in Continent Sunk .However,it was necessary to have a deep understanding
of Continent Sunk before taking tasks,so Silence chose the traditional way -to
kill monsters for experiences needed to enhance his level.
If there was a great
difference between monsters'levels and players' ones, players weren't able to
gain a lot of experiences.Therefore,it was the best way of raising your level
to opt to stike monsters whose levels were little away from your level.
One thing occured to him
as Silence had a idea of entering the valley.He patted his head and privately
scolded himself.
He opened the role panel and thought of the talent attribute
points he gained through leveling up hadn't been allocated.
Watching the role
panel,Silence a.s.sign the talent attibute
point to the skill appeared thanks to
just leveling up to 40: Divine Repremand.
Divine Repremand: a
pa.s.sive skill,increased the hurt holy spells caused to devilish monsters by
15%.At a junior level.The skill studies had to begin from openning up it via
talent attribute points obtained from leveing and then you was allowed to seek
the related NPC to learn a skill at a higher level）.
With the help of the
skill Divine Repremand in addition to the attack bonus euipments what Silence
put on a moment ago brought ,Silence
currently was able to strike devilish or fighterish monsters to death in within
two rounds.
Basically he didn't
release a stunning magic to reduce the moving speed first within two rounds of
stiking monsters to death for the monster usually was almost about to fall down
as he run close to himself.
After several
tries,Silence abandoned Holy Hammer with a attck bonus aginst devilish
monsters.Although he added the attribute point to Divine Repremand and the holy
magic possessed extra 15% attack damage bonus；However, Silence equipped himself with Eyes of A Devil and A Devil's
Left Hand,dark spells' attack hurt is a little
difference to catch up with sacred spells's attack at devils.Nevertheless,Blow
Up Souls belonging to dark spells had a
shorter releasing time than Holy Hammer belonging to holy spells and reduced mana consumption by 20% compared to Holy Hammer's mana cost.
With the help a spell
shooting time of one and a half seconds compared to a three-seconds magic
releasing duration,a Pain Deep Into the Soul spell promoted through devilish
equipments did cause silence to save a
time between one and two seconds within killing a monster.Afterwards,Silence
completely ignored devil swordmen coming by him,just dodging to the side,and
then went on striking next monster.Let previous monsters die of the effect
caused by Pain Deep into the Soul of continous attacks.
In order to rush to a
higher level,Silence brought junior and intermediate portions he concocted
before by himself.When he saw several monsters nearby ,he lessen the time to
rest and directly drunk up a bottle of mana portion other players only used at
the crucial moment to recover his magic points.In this way rised Silence
getting experiences's effiency.Although
it was in exchange for the cost of gold coins,it didn't matter that only
if he was able to pick herb gra.s.ses for Silence as a mastery alchemist.Let
alone herb gra.s.ses he picked in pa.s.sing when hitting monsters were enough for his own needs.
"Blow Up Souls!"(a dark
spell,with a cooling duration of one and a half seconds .)
"Pain Deep Into Souls!"
"Light Of Purification!"(a
holy spell at a lower level,with a releasing time of one second.)
After the cooldown
duration of Blow Up Souls went by,another Blow Up Souls was shot out.And then
followed another Light Of Purification.
Then, Silence paid no
attention to the devil swordman dashed up to him and set off to launch an
attack to another monster nearby.
Don't do it repeatedly,
until suddenly,Silence found devil swordmen around him were gone.
After thinking
deeply,Silence found time used to skill monsters was faster than system refreshing monsters' time.Silence took
the gap to tidy up his equipments and at the same time caculated how much time
he spent leveling up to 40 at this speed.
"It will took
thirty-four more hours keeping trying."Silence said in the mind after making a
calculation,"incorrect,gains of
experiences was lower after rasing a level ."
"Thirty-six hours."It
cheered up Silence if he worked harder,sleep time reduced two hours and game
time rised from six hours now to eight hours so that he was capable of going up
to a 40 level. At that time,he could try and verify his idea of a super priest
possessing both a high attack power as well as
a ability to command immortal creatures from dark priests and a strong
treating ability from holy priests.
Monsters began to
rebirth here(or refresh) and Silence set off to strike monsters.Used to the new
tactics, Silence had an ability both to hit monsters for experiences and to
ponder something.
After a long time of
skilling monsters,a belif occured to Silence,"could a priest have an ability of attack around an area as same as a
mage? "
However,searching through
all the priest' spells, Silence found no spells of attacking about a area or a
group but only attacks at a single target.
"Blow Up Souls!"
"Deep Into Souls!"
"The Light of
Putification!"
"Blow Up Souls!"
An automatic striking
monsters still run on and Silence continued thinking.
Suddenly,Silence
believed he seemed to catch some idea.After finishing killing a monster,Silence
retreated to a safe shelter.Then he opened the spell list.
Area attack spell have
an advantage of causing damages to many monsters more than more in the
meanwhile that way it benificial to increasing greatly experiences you gained
during unit time.
Although Silence as a
priest didn't have a spell as mage had,Silence possessed a continuous attack
spell any job couldn't match:Pain Deep Into Souls.As long as in a very short
period of time ,all the monsters had been given a Deep Into Souls that way
causing an effect as good as such area attack spell as Blizzard of a mage.Silence
looked at Pain Deep Into Souls on the spell list murmuring.
But how to bear several
monsters attacking at the same time.Even if Silence had an instant-shooting
Divine Defense Shield spell,perhaps Silence only resisted against three attacks
from a dark swordman and got out of
mana.
Silence frowned, and
began to looked over all his spells.At last, a spell was found in the division
of dark spells:Fear Scream.(This spell was capable of causing monsters around
fears and driving them fleeing away,with a duration of five seconds.It worked within
a radius of ten feets around the targer.)
Silence gave a smile,"it's this one!"
Then Silence began to
have a try.
"Pain Deep Into Souls!"
"Pain Deep Into Souls!"
"Pain Deep Into Souls!"
Silence sent out three
consecutive Pain Deep Into Souls at three dark swordmen nearby, shot a Blow Up
Souls spell to a monster of them shortly before monsters approached and
released a Light Of Purification to that one.
Three dark swordmen has
arrived beside Silence and were going to hold great swords in hands to cut to
Silence.Silence hastily started off to release a Fear Scream spell!
The effect began to
work,three dark swordmen ran out of Silence.Silence stared at the dark swordman
which had been greatly harmed and went on releasing a spell of Blow Up Souls.
Over! One Dead!
Continue,hit a Light Of
Purification against another dark swordman not very far away.
The cooldown time was
over after releasing a Light Of Purification and Silence could release one
more Blow Up Souls.
"Light Of Purification!"
"Blow Up Souls!"
Over!Two dead!
Watching the third dark
swordman,Silence showed a smile on his face.The duration of Deep Into Souls exerted
on that dark swordman had pa.s.sed,but the health point was a little more than a
two thirds of its original left.
A stunning, and a Light
Of Purification.One more Blow Up Souls!
Over!
A successful tactics!
Following it,Silence
started a tactical review so that he had capacity to gain experiences with a
greater efficiency. Although in this way was promoted Silence's speed of
striking monsters,there existed two disadvantages:first,it would add a lot of difficulty in Silence operation
on skill release and use up many more spirits;second,here the dark swordmen was
apprently incapable of meeting Silence's speed.
After the review
finished,Silence stroke monsters to gain experiences with an old tactics while
thinking about how to settle this problem.
Increased difficulty in
operation could be overcome via exercise so that he ended up in an easier and
more relax operation,however,this grinding area was needed to change into a new
suitable place.Otherwise it was a real pity that that new tactics he just came
up with had no choice to work.
After grinding for a
while,Silence saw the experiences he lacked for upgrading next level,which was
sixty-five percent of a total experiences bar apart from a 39 level.Silence
took one more time and it was already more than midnight twelve.
After a period of
strike,Silence decided to work deep into Valley Devil to seek if there were
monsters suitable for him killing monsters.Silence remembered a great many
monsters of slightly one to two levels higher inside Valley Devil ;
Nontheless,in order to harvest experiences efficiently,he haven't gone anywhere
to have a careful exploration but stayed at the devil swordman zone.
Now it was up to how
much good luck he met with to find a place suitable for striking and full of
monsters busy reborning.Silence get occupied with both marching and watching
out for surroundings.
In the Continent Sunk,it
was necessary to keep cautious for punishment from death could get Silence
hairy.
"Which way shall I go?"
Silence was looking at
the two swarthy caves in front of him.
"Left or right hand?"Silence
gave a consideration and opt in the
right-hand cave which he had a little impression on.
There was obviously no
monsters in the swarthy cave.Silence lit a fire torch and didn't see a light until
stepped deep into the cave for about fifteen minutes .At this time,he was able
to watch a ma.s.s of light in the distanct and Silence moved towards there with
caution.
"Gonna arrive at the
exit."Silence was on the alert even badly, and added a defence shield on his
body in advance in case monsters bursted in to lauch a strike.
It was necessry for Silence
to be with caution.A monster suddenly attacked Silence as Silence right exited out
ofthe cave.
Silence hurried to throw a
stunning spell out and drew back into the valley inside when releasing a Pain
Deep Into Souls spell meanwhile.A Blow Up Souls was followed to release there.
Watching the monster near to here,Silence had
a hurried detect for this monster's information:Devil Detestation,at a 37
level.
Silence ran a calculation as was
retreating.His stunning spell commonly reduced monsters' moving speed by 50%.Judging
from the move speed of this monster,even if he didn't release a stunning
spell,it was obvious to not catch up with himself.Perhaps its moving speed was
three or less than three.
Good luck!Silence gave a thumbs up in his
mind.
"Now it comes to look how
thick your skin was!"
As the Devil Detestation crashed down
on the ground right at the second Blow Up Souls point，Silence stared blankly for a following moment.
"What...."Silence endured
ecstasy deep in mind,"hope right
here stand plenty of monsters."
A monster possessing a slow march speed and
not too many
blood points,was made-to-measure to fit his new gaining
experiences'tactics,wasn't it?
However,the monster
nearly broke his defence shield at one blow,showing a superstrong physical
attack power. Nontheless,it had nothing to do with Silence because that monster
wasn't able to get so near to him as to be under the control of Silence.Especially
the monster looked as a chubby ball as people said a fatty was,but its health
point was thinner than a sheet of paper.
Silence released a
defensive shield at him,and warily headed for the exit!
No stike from a
monster!Silence advanced out of the cave!
Silence couldn't help
standing in amazement as he took a sight of a scene before him.
