After calling the player

==================

The remaining 3 items, cooking, runes and leatherworking, are ridiculed by players as untouchable skills for the poor.

The threshold for cooking is not high. If you make a fire in the wild and string together sticks and roast it, it is considered cooking. If you take a stone pot and cook it casually, it is considered cooking. Finding a flat stone to make a "teppanyaki" is also considered cooking.

Whether or not the player learns cooking skills has no effect on the final finished dish.

But Eric knows that not many players are willing to go to such trouble in the game. Some people are too lazy to cook in reality, or even don't know how to cook at all.

So there is the cooking skill.

After learning cooking skills, you will also get a book called "Basic Recipes" like herbs and fishing. After opening the "Adventurer's Handbook", there is an additional column "Cooking Encyclopedia", which initially records some common recipes And the attributes of the corresponding dishes.

When players find conditions for "free cooking" in the wild, they can also record the attributes of the corresponding recipes and dishes.

Most dishes only increase hunger, and only a few dishes have special attributes. For example, basically all dishes added with small red mushrooms will have the attribute of accelerating life recovery.

These attributes do not particularly disrupt the balance. Players generally believe that it is better to get one before the war, and there is no need for it in normal times.

Eric actually encourages players to "cook freely" and create more recipes.

There are several stoves in the kitchen that are specially provided for players who have learned cooking, and they are completely free.

Kitchen utensils such as kitchen knives and cutting boards do not need to be purchased additionally, and they are also rented to them for free.

Even some condiments and basic ingredients are supplied to players at cost prices.

Of course, players can also bring their own ingredients, and the forest itself is a treasure house.

In short, players who are willing to spend energy to cook their own dishes will not spend much money on cooking. If the things they cook look delicious,

When players say that cooking skills are not suitable for the poor, they mean that they are not suitable for those who are greedy and lazy, who want to satisfy their appetites but do not want to do it themselves.

Eric naturally also prepared an alternative for these people, that is the alchemy pot.

Although it is not like other games, if you have all the materials on your body, you can harvest a dish after reading the article for more than ten seconds, but it is also very convenient.

Just put the corresponding ingredients and condiments in the alchemy pot, choose a good recipe, and wait for a while before you can enjoy the delicious food.

The alchemy pot is a very magical alchemy item. It can simulate various cooking methods such as boiling, roasting, frying, frying, and frying. Advanced ones also have various additional functions.

The only downside is that it's a bit pricey, after all it's something popular from the mage's tower.

The primary alchemy pot costs 1 gold coin, and the intermediate alchemy pot costs 10 gold coins. Compared with the primary alchemy pot, it has an automatic cleaning and heat preservation function, and the space for condiments and ingredients is also greatly increased.

No matter how expensive the alchemy pot Eric was, the players couldn't afford it anyway.

The price of the alchemy pot is already very fair, because the positioning of this product is a bit problematic.

Creatures with little money prefer to cook by themselves, and truly decent rich people also like to hire chefs to cook for themselves. They dislike the same food made by the alchemy pot without any change.

Only some creatures who like to be alone, such as mages who shut themselves in the mage tower for research, will especially respect the alchemy pot.

So the body of this alchemy product is not expensive, what is expensive is actually the recipe burned into it.

However, players have a unique advantage in this aspect. There is a system that can collect recipes created by everyone and then consolidate them. They only need to spend a little money to choose and burn their favorite recipes.

Eric believes that players can't afford the price of the alchemy pot now, and they will still buy it in the future.

Such cooking skills can basically meet their expectations.

The remaining runes and leatherworking are expensive raw materials.

The runes require leather paper and mana ink, both of which Eric ordered from the Mojin Alliance last time.

Low-level magic can only be carried by ordinary parchment, and magic beast skins rich in magic power are required for higher levels.

Most of the monster skin papers in the market are obtained by raising monsters that shed their skin regularly. This is more convenient and cheaper than directly using the fur obtained after the death of monsters, but it is still expensive.

However, players don’t need to think about this for the time being. Rune skills can only create lower-level magic scrolls that they have mastered. To put it simply, players are now level 4, and they can only draw level 1-3 magic scrolls. They only need parchment That's it.

Mana ink is also expensive. Traditional mana ink is divided into several grades, all of which are formulated with precious herbs and special monster blood.

Fortunately, Clake, the tribe's rune tutor, was born as a commoner. When he was learning runes, he carefully studied the method of reducing costs, replaced them with some cheap materials, and invented an alternative ink. The cost of such a bottle of ink is Only 1/3 of traditional ink.

Of course, the disadvantages are also obvious. Traditional ink has no tendency to magic. It can draw magic scrolls of any attribute, and it can be stored for a long time. Even if it is stored for ten or twenty years, there is no problem.

And this alternative ink will also have attributes according to the attributes of the magic core added during production. It can only draw magic scrolls of the same attribute, and can only maintain an active period of about one year. After that, the effectiveness of the scrolls will gradually decline. , After three years, it will be almost a piece of waste paper.

But this has little effect on the players.

Rune is actually the skill that best fits the player's imagination of the mysterious magical world, especially the quill pen used to draw the scroll, which makes it feel professional all at once.

However, players who have learned this skill have complained on the forum that this skill is really not practical at this stage.

Leaving aside the persuasive price of materials, the price of NPC recycling finished scrolls is simply outrageous.

Moreover, according to the introduction of Clake, the rune teacher, there are three benefits of using magic scrolls.

One is that it requires less mana than normal casting.For the players, it is a question of drinking more honey and eating more small blue mushrooms, which is not attractive.

One is that with the magic scroll, you can release magic that you have never mastered.But the players summed it up, the only magic that is valuable to be drawn into a scroll is the dark "Darkness".Dark-type magic is not very lethal, and many players are unwilling to waste gene slots to learn dark-type magic for this control-type skill. It is a good choice to use magic scrolls instead.

However, players who have learned runes are not willing to choose dark magic just to make scrolls of darkness.

After all, the cost of the magic scroll is there, and the price of the scroll of darkness is not cheap. It is great for the average player to stock up on 2-3 scrolls for special tasks that may be encountered. The market is easily saturated, and the price is too expensive. If you can't sell it, you won't make much money at all.

This is very embarrassing.

A final bonus is that no chanting is required.Given that players haven't encountered spells that require chanting to release, their understanding of this is that they don't need to shake forward like condensing energy.

This is also very embarrassing, because the existing magic roll-forward time is inherently short, and it may not be as long as the time for tearing the scroll.

Players can only comfort themselves that the rune skill is a late-stage skill with great potential. In the first test, players basically still remember Clark and his Scroll of Fire, and players who have watched the live broadcast and related videos are also deeply impressed by this.

When it comes to rune skills, I have to mention a player. Her character name is "Mature nickers must learn to find candy by themselves", which is the same as the name in the forum.

Eric's previous impression of her was that she was very good at painting, but she would giggle "hehehe" at them inexplicably.

Now, Eric thinks she's such a baby.

Because of the existence of alternative inks, ecologists wondered why parchment could not be replaced with paper.

She asked the NPCs around, only to find that there is no modern paper made of plant fibers in the game world.

So the craving expert eagerly took her friend she met in the game, the handicraft master Strawberry Yoyo, to study papermaking together.

They can go offline to look up information at any time, which is much more convenient than those who travel through time.

The raw material they choose to make paper is bamboo, because other trees and plants can't correspond to reality, but the bamboo they found for Lanlan looks exactly like reality.

There are two big bamboo forests, Lan Lan can't finish eating a single panda.

Niacian and Strawberry Yoyo felt a little guilty, and decided to offer honey to Lan Lan every day as compensation.

Thanks to various documents and the help of various search engines, the manufacture of bamboo paper has achieved quite good results very quickly. The next step is to continue to experiment and adjust and improve the formula.

Seeing the hope of success, Nixologists put forward another idea, should their players study the difference between the game and reality first, and first get something that doesn't exist in the game yet.

For example, she also learned cooking skills, but there seems to be sugar, salt, vinegar, chili, and even things like MSG in the kitchen, but there seems to be no soy sauce, which is an indispensable good thing in daily life .

Many players in the life department are very interested in this, and some cloud players who can only be active on the forum are also happy to help them give ideas.

There are also various time-travel novels that can provide them with reference, whether it is reliable or feasible is another matter, but they can completely compare the differences between the two worlds according to the various "inventions" of the protagonists in them, which can save a lot of effort.

Eric is very supportive of their actions.

After all, this is the same as growing mushrooms, and he is the one who gets the benefits in the end.

The dilemma of leatherworking skills is still raw materials.

Because it involves violence and blood, and cannot pass the review (?), the system says that players cannot peel and tan their own skins. They can only buy leather that has been tanned by a cobbler as materials, and the cost will naturally go up.

In other respects, leatherworking skills are similar to craftsman skills, except that one is split into steps, and the other is split into parts. The principle is the same, and the learning methods are basically the same.

It’s just limited by the expensive raw materials. It’s not easy to make a set of leather armor equipment. Datou Cai, who has the fastest progress among the players, only managed to save a pair of shoulder armor and a pair of wrist guards. Improved whiteboard equipment.

This has already made him stand out from the crowd of players who are still wearing sacks, attracting the attention of others, and the return rate is 100%.

The cobbler of the tribe is a little troubled, and many adventurers have reported that they want to learn how to make helmets first.

It's the kind of helmet made of the whole head of a monster, the kind that allows their head to be stuck in the mouth of the monster, and I don't know where I learned the aesthetics.

After successfully testing the life skills, Eric was completely relieved, which meant that players could indeed replace the high-level Zerg, and his tribe would not have any major problems in running like this.

Eric is even thinking about starting the test without deleting files next time.

Sorry little angels, Qixi Festival is off again.Yesterday was really miserable. Heyue is a single dog, not to mention that he has no partner for the festival, and he was forced to get involved in the emotional disputes of the elders, and then I drove there with my mother for more than 2 hours one way.
