112: Chapter 112 Exploiting the Guides and the Secrets Behind Heavenly Rewards!

Zhang Jian continued the introduction.

"Wei Donglai has a talent effect called [Over-level Armament], which allows him to equip weapons no more than 10 levels higher than himself."

The Reception Envoy's eyes were thoughtful.

"This talent appeared a few years ago as well; there was a student in the academy who had it, but he was a Support class, so it was somewhat of a waste."

"If I remember correctly, Wei Donglai should be a Fire Mage; this talent should be quite helpful to him."

"Especially when he reaches Level 30, he'll be able to equip Level 40 epic-grade weapons. The job change mission will basically be no challenge for him at all."

Zhang Jian and Wang Fei were struck with realization.

They hadn't thought of it from that perspective.

Thinking of his own Growth-type Weapon recipe, Zhang Jian felt a sense of emotion.

When the time comes, Wei Donglai might very well be the biggest winner among them in this regard.

Composing himself, he continued the introduction.

"As for Yan Han, it's [Control Enhancement]."

"His elemental attribute—the duration of his Ice-type control skills is increased, and the cooldown time is reduced."

Wang Fei chimed in.

"When we were discussing it, he even complained that his reward was the only useless one."

The Reception Envoy shook his head.

"That is not the case."

"Looking at this talent alone, its limitations are indeed great."

"But you must understand one thing: the priority of skills rewarded by the Heavenly Dao stands above all other skills."

"Even epic-grade skills and mythical level skills will be affected by it."

"Furthermore, starting from epic-grade skills, there are types that permanently reduce skill cooldowns."

"If he learns more Ice skills that already have short cooldowns, he could even achieve near-infinite casting."

"Think about the concept of an Ice Mage who can continuously freeze monsters."

The eyes of both men lit up.

Put that way, there really was potential there!

A thought occurred to Zhang Jian. "Then, do you have any skills here suitable for him?"

He still had quite a few legendary rank skills on hand, and Zhang Jian planned to exchange one or two suitable ones for Yan Han as well.

The Reception Envoy merely took a quick glance through his inventory and tossed over two books.

Zhang Jian caught them and looked.

[Abyssal Frost Imprisonment] (legendary rank)

Releases chains formed of frost to entwine the target, inflicting an imprisonment effect. Initially causes a 3-second forced freeze, with a brief freeze triggered every 5 seconds thereafter.

[Ice Crystal Fortress] (legendary rank)

Summons movable ice prisms that can cause an instantaneous freeze effect on enemies they touch. While the prisms exist, damage taken by teammates will be converted into shields proportionally.

Zhang Jian solemnly put them away.

The effects of these two skills were both excellent and very suitable for his team.

As for the last one, it was naturally himself.

He directly revealed the effect.

[Skill Boon]: The number of skills obtained after each level-up is doubled.

Though it was just a short sentence, it made the Reception Envoy's gaze freeze, and his expression became unusually excited.

Zhang Jian, on the other hand, was somewhat puzzled.

Before the Second Job Change, one can obtain two learnable skill slots at each level-up—at Levels 10, 20, and 30.

Even with his talent's bonus, he would only have six more skills than others.

While that was indeed a significant benefit,

It shouldn't be enough to make a figure of the Reception Envoy's level this excited.

When he expressed his confusion, the Reception Envoy sighed with emotion.

"Before the first job change, the effect is naturally not that exaggerated."

"But starting from the Second Job Change, you can learn epic-grade skills."

"Among them are many skills with powerful effects, and even passive skills that can increase basic attributes."

"With 3 skills every 10 levels, you'll be able to learn nine more epic-grade skills than others throughout the entire Second Job Change stage."

"In terms of basic attributes alone, you will be far stronger than anyone else."

He became more excited as he spoke.

"Not to mention, after the third job change, you can learn 4 skills every 10 levels."

"That's a cumulative 12 skills. If you can learn mythical level ones, or even passive skills that increase attributes by a percentage, then it would simply be..."

Before he could finish, Zhang Jian couldn't help but hold his breath as well.

Put that way, this talent really is powerful enough!

Especially since,

His talent could also transform skills into affix-type effects that adapted to him. Even with the same quality, the skills he learned would be stronger than others'.

If the quantity was doubled as well, it really was a bit overpowered.

Thinking of this, Zhang Jian rubbed his hands together, looking a bit embarrassed.

"Lord, you know that I'm just a common and weak Swordsman class. It's usually not easy to find suitable skill books."

"You should have all types of books here, right?"

The Reception Envoy said crossly,

"If you want them, just say so. Don't play the victim with me!"

Zhang Jian gave a mischievous grin.

"Then I won't be polite!"

"According to what you said, it would be better for me to learn more passive skills now, right?"

The Reception Envoy shook his head.

"Due to their quality, legendary rank passive skills basically don't have percentage-based increases. Those that can increase basic attributes are all fixed numbers, and the values aren't large. As you progress further, that degree of increase becomes basically useless."

Zhang Jian's mind raced with thought.

For others, that was indeed the case.

Adding 10 or 20 points of attack, or 50 or 100 points of vitality, naturally didn't mean much.

It couldn't compare to a powerful offensive skill at all.

But he was different.

After transformation, all of his skills could have their affix effects and even their quality improved!

Even if the initial effect was average, wouldn't it become high after a few upgrades?

Besides,

When they were upgraded from legendary rank to epic-grade or even mythical level rank,

Would the original specific values also upgrade to percentage-based bonuses?

Zhang Jian's breathing quickened.

He immediately made up his mind.

"I still want passive types; they're more suitable for me."

The Reception Envoy narrowed his eyes.

This kid seems to have a secret.

However,

He didn't pry.

Instead, he carefully helped select some.

In the end, he found three skill books and handed them all over to him.

"Passive-type skill books are very rare among legendary ranks, and those suitable for you are even fewer."

"Make do with these for now."

Zhang Jian was naturally extremely grateful.

Anything selected by the other party was bound to be high quality.

Taking them was definitely the right choice.

Having fleeced enough benefits from the Reception Envoy, Zhang Jian urged him to head back quickly.

In the airship, there were still three classmates from other countries waiting expectantly.

Zhang Jian didn't want the others to feel that he was receiving preferential treatment.

Before leaving, the Reception Envoy couldn't help but give another instruction.

"If you want to challenge a Hell Dungeon again, you must be cautious."

"Don't be fooled by the fact that your medal's trait can be used once a day; others can only use theirs once every three days."

"If something happens to you, there won't be anyone else like me who can bring you back again."

Zhang Jian nodded.

"Rest assured, we will definitely be fully prepared before attempting a second challenge."

After seeing the Reception Envoy off to the airship,

Zhang Jian returned to the secret room and looked impatiently at the three skills in his backpack.
