Chapter 112: Legendary Talent – Elemental Dominator!

With the direction set, William began to plan the specific measures for harvesting the leeks on paper.

He wasn’t sure if he could assign tasks to the players, but it should be possible. If not, he could always ask someone else to help with the assignments.

Even though players appeared in the Gaia World and were restricted in some of their actions by the game system, their bodies were no different from those of real humans.

So, players also needed to eat, rest like normal people, and when they logged off, their bodies wouldn’t disappear like in some games but would continue to exist, albeit in a state similar to that of a vegetative state, completely powerless.

It’s like your controlled character is truly existing in the Gaia World. If you don’t log in for a long time, your character might starve to death.

But there’s no need to worry too much. After the character dies, apart from experience penalties and other losses, there won’t be any other changes. Players just need to resurrect again.

So, when players first enter the game, the first problem they face is survival.

You see, the attributes of the newly created characters controlled by players are all blank, except for their innate talents, they are just like ordinary people in all other aspects.

Player characters are all Level 1 commoners. Want to advance to extraordinary professions? Except for a few lucky ones, you’d better start by working hard to earn money.

That’s why mercenary guilds are the most common places for players in the early stages of the game, and it’s also one of the official recommended paths.

The first is to earn money, and the second is that there are many opportunities here to learn extraordinary abilities.

To be honest, although players are all poor, their talents are undisputed. There’s no problem with mastering extraordinary abilities and advancing professions.

Should he try to replace some of the influence of the mercenary guild among players born in the Canlight City area?

Even if it’s just replacing a part, it would be very helpful in controlling the behavior of players!

Gold, quests? The guild he’s currently setting up lacks various kinds of labor the most.

You see, players are all hardworking, obedient leeks who work 996. They are proficient in everything, and this transaction won’t lose out.

Moreover, he is very clear about the situation of players in the early stages. As long as accommodation, clothing, and food services are provided while hiring, he might even make more money back than he spends!

The more William thought about it, the more promising it seemed. This was the real dilemma faced by players when the game first started in his previous life. Many even went to beg on the streets of Fis, reportedly as a form of performance art, but unfortunately, they were all caught by patrolling guards.

Make a note of this and ask Mora to arrange it later.

As for the various ways of harvesting leeks, William wasn’t planning to use them right away.

There’s no way, the leek sprouts are still underdeveloped, and it’s not satisfying to harvest them yet. It’s better to let them grow plump and tender.

There was one thing that William felt he needed to prioritize.

That is, cultivating some runemasters among the players.

William had noticed that the process of players engraving runes was different from that of the natives, faster, and didn’t require an understanding of the principles involved, just knowing the end result was enough, and the efficiency was higher.

Most importantly, as long as William maintained strict confidentiality requirements and punishment measures, players were almost impossible to leak information, which was crucial for him.

However, it’s still too early to cultivate players to the point where they can handle the “self-charging” rune combinations. William had plenty of time to take it slowly, anyway. After all, the early production capacity wasn’t much, and Bernie alone was busy enough.

Before long, the parchment in front of William was filled with writing.

That’s about it, William nodded, and stored the parchment in his storage ring.

There’s still a month until the game starts, and William is also relieved.

The appearance of players means that the development of various major events and main storylines in the future won’t change much. William still has a significant advantage as a foreteller!

The next morning, William didn’t go to the First Magic Workshop to study with his teacher but came to the library instead.

William didn’t know what Teacher Stephens had been up to these past two days that allowed him to study on his own without needing to go find him.

But William also felt that Apollo had already instilled a lot of basic knowledge into him, and now what’s more important was for him to comprehend, practice, and ultimately master it himself.

Angela lazily lay on Lisa’s head. She seemed to have eaten too much yesterday, and today she only ate a small portion of the food on the table.

Watching Lisa slowly flipping through the magic book in the mild morning sunlight, her hair, as white as sheep’s fat, seemed to emit a mysterious light under the sunlight.

Lisa was quite familiar with her young master by now and had already gotten used to having such a bookworm companion.

The two of them quietly leaned against the window, quietly reading for most of the morning. Both of them were patient souls.

Putting down the book “Harmony and Resonance of the Four Basics – Apollo Stephens” in his hand, William asked Lisa:

“You’ve been reading for so long, Lisa, aren’t you tired?”

“Yeah, a little bit.”

Lisa said that after spending time together multiple times, she no longer felt as nervous as before.

“Speaking of which, Lisa, have you been staying in the library all this time? You’re already a Silver-tier mage, so why haven’t I seen you practicing spells in the courtyard?”

It’s difficult to make progress solely by burying oneself in one’s profession. Progress comes from combining acquired knowledge with practical experience; the two complement each other. William couldn’t recall seeing Lisa practicing magic, which was quite unexpected.

“Young Master William, I did practice while I was studying at the Magic Academy, but I haven’t practiced since returning and staying in the library.”

“But it hasn’t had much impact; I can practice some simple spells in the library myself.”

Lisa tilted her head in thought and said softly.

William was somewhat speechless. It’s impressive that she could achieve Silver-tier advanced strength even without actively practicing. However, William guessed the probable reason for Lisa’s clandestine behavior and didn’t press further. He had other purposes for coming today.

“How about a sparring match in the courtyard? It’s a good opportunity to stretch our bodies.”

William suggested, intending to verify some of his hypotheses through the match.

“Um, okay.”

Lisa hesitated a bit. Instinctively, she didn’t want to leave the library, but seeing William’s encouraging gaze, she couldn’t help but agree.

Standing in the courtyard, William looked at Lisa wrapped tightly in a black cloak, feeling somewhat helpless.

The more he looked, the more she resembled the person he had speculated about?

Seeing Lisa retrieve a golden fighting staff adorned with an advanced water elemental magic gem from her storage ring, William didn’t pay it much mind; all of this was within his expectations.

“Here I come!”

William announced, wielding his emerald staff. A solid emerald-green wind blade condensed in mid-air and flew directly towards Lisa.

However, halfway through, it was blocked by the elemental shield cast by Lisa.

Nevertheless, William had achieved his goal.

Looking at the refreshed system panel in front of him, William saw Lisa’s challenge information.
