Chapter 2: Elf

“Half-Elfin setting is active.”
“Blackleaf Eflin Royal bloodline potential setting is active.”
“Human Legendary Hero bloodline potential is active.”
“The experience points of the open missions are currently set at 1000.”
“Poker face characteristic is active.”
The corners of William Blackleaf’s lips twitched as he stopped thinking about the players. However, he never expected his new Father, who had disappeared to have Legendary bloodline.
However, if he was really that incapable, he definitely would not have been able to snag his Mother, who was already the Elfin princess.
He just didn’t know if that Father of his had died or merely disappeared.
However, usually, NPCs with Legendary bloodline were exceptionally lucky and wouldn’t die so easily.
If they were actually able to get to the Legendary levels, humans were usually able to get the dignified Duke t.i.tle and power. This was because the Legendary position meant that they were at the top of the social pyramid.
“Hm, is he dead, or is he just missing?” William raised an eyebrow, muttering to himself: “Character Attributes.”

Apart from the people in the Dark Camp, everyone else (including G.o.ds), animals and flora will have a good impression of you, something equal to your charm level. When you make a transaction with other intelligent beings, you can get a discount. (The higher the other party’s level, the better the other’s bloodline, the lesser the effects.)

Comment: Amongst the young level 8 half-Elfins, you’re so powerful you can kick a human kindergartener already.
There was no need to explain health. Once it was zero, it was game over.
The stamina was a little different from other games.
In this world, any movements, actions or skills would use a certain amount of stamina. Even if you were having s.e.x, your stamina would be depleted as well.
Of course, if the players want to have children, they would have to acc.u.mulate their friendship points to 1000 points before they could do anything.
Basically…
This process took six months…
That was why the players had to keep an eye on their stamina all the time, so that they would not waste it on unnecessary actions. If not, if they ran out of stamina when they were fighting, they wouldn’t be able to use their weapons and it would be as good as dying.
Strength = Stamina = 50% of the standard attack power.
Physical Strength = Health Amount = 50% of the basic defense amount.
Agility = speed of movement. (It has nothing to do with avoiding speed and critical attack.)
Intelligence = 50% of the basic magic defense amount.
However, intelligence had a hidden attribute to it as well, that was mental strength!
That also meant that the longer you concentrated, the more mental strength you used. During a fight, they needed to constantly stay focused, so that they could hit the enemies or hit at their critical spot.
As the length of the fight increased, the hidden mental strength would also be depleted and the player would slowly lose focus during the fight. From that, their critical hit rate and the rest would all decrease.
At the same time, intelligence also gave a mage’s skill attacks an extra boost!
As for endowment, he was handsome?
Of course, he was very handsome. Being handsome was the real power in this world. Fighting strengths were all temporary, being handsome was forever…
Elves all liked people who looked good. With his endowment, what else could William ask for?
“F*ck, couldn’t they give me something more useful?”
However, he didn’t need to worry. With his Legendary bloodline, more endowments would appear as he increased his status level. Also, he could complete some hidden missions to increase his endowment.
After all, he could only hope for so much now…
Because his Legendary bloodline seemed to be fake. His luck was too low. Of course, this probably had something to do with how he had pa.s.sed away early in his previous life.
Or, there was another reason.
There were so many Legendary Bosses that there would definitely have to be an unlucky person to take the fall for everyone.
To be honest, William was rather shocked when he saw that the character attributes page looked like a player’s. However, it was a good thing that he remained quiet and composed. He took a closer look at the attributes and started to gloat a little.
He was truly someone with Legendary bloodline potential. Being an untouched level 8 was indeed a strong attribute. If he went to the beginners’ village now to kill the level 0 characters, he could kill them with just one attack…
Bloodline potential was very important in this game and that determined the highest level NPCs could reach. Unlike the players who could eventually become stronger as long as they were willing to put in the effort and money. Although it was very hard to advance their levels in the later parts of the game, they were still a lot luckier than NPCs.
“With the Legendary bloodline potential, the weakness of being half Elfin has gone. It even blends perfectly with the strengths of both the human and Elfin sides, making my attributes even stronger. However… I definitely cannot mess about with the addition of my attribute points and leveling up. I still have to specialize in what I have to do. If not, I’ll die very quickly!”
There were races that were wealthily endowed as if they were the G.o.ds’ sons, such as the Elves, the Dragons, the Mages, and others…
Of course, today was mainly to introduce the Elves.
They were naturally a lot stronger compared to other races.
The long-range attacks were based on the family’s ability. It was as though he had a lock on his mind, like everyone who had the surname Lu… Anyway, even he could not explain it clearly after they had shot their attacks out and hit their targets accurately…
Their near range attacks wouldn’t be weak either. No matter if they were Elfin warriors, Elfin knights, Elfin rangers or even Elfin mages, they were all extremely strong and could withstand many attacks.
As for the defense and life attributes, can you believe it would be possible for these people who can live for more than a thousand years, to have low defense and be stronger than Orcs?
People who didn’t understand the game and dared to say that the defense attribute of Elves was lower than Orcs were all bullsh*tting. They were merely on par. The main key depended on the occupation and attribute points addition…
Agility… Haha, William merely smirked. It wasn’t a joke for Elfin rangers to fly kites.
On the other hand, looking at the various humans, Orcs, Goblins, Death Souls and others, they were all made after nature had finished creating the Elves.
Of course…
Even though the Elves had many strengths, they had their weaknesses too.
Their fertility rate was extremely low.
This was the pain of every Elf. It was extremely hard for pure-blooded Elves to reproduce. Every war and every fall of an Elf was a drastic blow to them.
A fertility rate of 1 out of 3650 chances, what kind of chance was that?
If they were Orcs, they would be able to develop a notably sized village in ten years…
In his previous lives, many players had chosen the good looking Elves as their first characters. However, they merely played for a few months before they knelt down, deleted their characters, and started playing as new characters. They had all been tortured by the experience levels because an Elfin’s experience levels required twice that of humans.
That was why there was a saying back then:
Elves and magic can only be used by the richest of them all, while the rest can only observe from afar and not play them at all.
At this time, many might ask, what about those who chose the half-blooded Elves?
William really wanted to say that half-blooded Elves required 1.5 times the normal experience levels. However, they didn’t have such strong attribute traits as he did, so they might as well choose the Winged race and act as an Angel or something similar in the future.
Although it is worth noting that changing their occupation to an Angel required looks. A normal player’s appearance usually wouldn’t meet the requirements…
