What did you do with the dice?

What's more, these are secondhand items, the kind that noble families wouldn't want and commoners couldn't afford. I guess only the nouveau riche would want to buy these secondhand, custom-made items. If they can't find a suitable buyer, the Chamber of Commerce will have to modify and refurbish them themselves, which adds another cost.)

Therefore, Sanita felt that these things, which were originally worth 20-30 gold coins in total, could actually be sold at a 10% discount for 2-3 gold coins, which was already very good. Klauen was willing to pay 10 gold coins, which was indeed a friendly price among friendly prices, or simply a close friend price.

But Rusalka also had something to say: (If I ever really conquer Alice City, then these are the chairs Rusalka sat on, the bed she slept on. Wouldn't they sell for antique prices? At least ten times the price.)

Sani Tieta: (The bed is still there. If you want to dream, you can just sleep there.)

By the way, the two of them were promoted twice after the war. Perhaps it was because there was an extra experience settlement reward after the siege. In any case, Rushaka, who got 50 points, was indeed a nouveau riche.

Sanita spent 5 points to get a [Magic Hand] talent: once a day, when casting a spell, he can consume additional mana/rings and treat any item in his hand as a material that meets the casting conditions. The amount of mana consumed is determined by the rarity of the material.

He used the other 5 points to strengthen the magic [Counter Spell] and added an entry for [Energy-saving Counter Spell] to it: [Counter Spell] no longer has a ring limit of at least 3, and can now use 1st and 2nd ring spells for casting. The target of the counter is still only spells of the same ring/level. The success rate of the counter is reduced by 50% for each level crossed.

This entry is actually quite awesome in Sanitieta's opinion, because it maximizes flexibility and solves the dilemma of "not wanting to use it to counter those small but disgusting spells because spell countering requires at least three levels of protection."

For example, if the Paladin plans to use the 2nd ring of Phantom Step to attack the enemy, most mages are actually reluctant to use the counterspell because they feel that it is a loss to exchange the 3rd ring for the 2nd ring. In fact, in the early and middle stages of PVP, if the mage wants to kite, this thing really must be countered, otherwise the Paladin will teach you what it means to send you to a resurrection match with the prison in one round.

As for the late game? Late-game mages have so much to offer, and the same goes for some bards. Counterspell itself is a spell used to swap rings, effectively using a free reaction to eat up a boss's action. This is why Counterspell is considered a cheat spell—its existence forces DMs to exclude boss actions from spellcasting. Unless the boss is surrounded by a ton of helpful minions, you're going to miss out on casting a spell.

Of course, if you design something like multiple spells in one turn, you can certainly ignore this problem. However, in this case, the boss will be creating rules outside the rule book. If the DM's design is very different from the information in the rule book, the player experience will be very poor. If playing between strangers, it is easy to encounter unruly people who use the rule book to question "it is unreasonable."

As a result, in the tabletop game environment of dnd5e, mages are not allowed to use spells above level three by default in combat - if they do, they will be countered by the opponent's spells. If the opponent uses some special equipment or ability to counter a level, it will be uncomfortable to lose a high level.

But Sanitta is different from Rusalka. Rusalka studies all this nonsense every day and finally comes to a strange conclusion that "knights are better than mages". Sanitta is a loyal PVE player. He has always believed that the flexibility of mages is the way out for tabletop games against DM designs.

But it doesn't matter, in the end it's still brothers playing together, so Rusalka created many bosses to torture his teammates. Sanita is no longer surprised by what kind of monsters he can create, which is why he chose to bring Rusalka to play this DM's self-created rules together.

No one wants a Chaos Card that will ruin their team, but no one will complain that their teammates are too strong.

Back to the point, Sanitieta used ten points to buy these two practical abilities and upgraded his poet to level 7. Due to the existence of points and abilities, the benefits of part-time mages and warlocks are very low, and the benefits of other indigenous professional branches such as shamans do not seem to be high either. He still plans to go the route of pure poet + spell table copying, which is more suitable for him.

As for Rusalka next door, he had already lost track of time after getting 50 points. Sanita suggested that he purchase an ability called [Flight].

This ability is simple and unpretentious, with its function written in its name. By simply consuming 50 attribute points, the character can gain the ability to fly freely, which is equivalent to the ability of permanent flight without loss, and no immunity is required when being hit, which is in line with the expected value of 50 attribute points.

No matter how Sunny Tower thought about it, he felt that this thing was invincible: Sorry, in the three-dimensional world, if you can fly, you can really do whatever you want.

But Rusalka felt that the scale of the Sani Tower was too small. He remembered that it was written in the rule book that the Vengeance Paladin would learn the Wings of Vengeance by himself after reaching level 17. At that time, he would be able to fly, and there was no need to waste points to experience it in advance.

Sanitta rolled his eyes. He knew that Rusalka couldn't be persuaded at this time, so he could only say, "Yes, yes, yes."

After Rusalka was upgraded, the build became a 4th level Paladin + a 3rd level Warlock.

In the game, it is definitely not like that, because a level 5 Paladin can get the feature of being able to attack twice in one round, and a level 6 Paladin will have a small-range resistance aura, also known as a sticking aura - all teammates want to stand next to you to enjoy the aura benefits (but you can choose to only let the opposite sex stand next to you).

Now, the "two-hit" feature is probably impossible to implement in reality. It can't just be that your arm swings twice as fast, right? I don't know what other feature it will be replaced with.

The halo itself provides a +5 resistance point for Rusalka, whose resistance has been stretched to the limit. While +5 sounds impressive in a 20-sided dice game, it actually doesn't seem to provide much improvement to Rusalka in the real world.

But it's different for a level 3 warlock. Not only does the damage of the magic explosion get enhanced, and he can use the [Repulsive Magic Explosion] feature to forcefully push people, but Rusalka also gains a crucial feature: magic contract weapon.

He can now summon a spiritual weapon at any time, and the damage judgment of this weapon is still the noble "magic damage". Not only that, Rusalka can also contract and bind a physical weapon at any time, treating it as a "magic contract weapon". After the strength is modified by the village rules, it has the noble judgment of choosing the highest value between physical and magic damage.

I treat damage to magic immunity shield as physical damage, and damage to physical resistance shield as magic damage. The most important point is: the weapon will not explode, saving a second-ring enchantment, probably.

Even if it explodes, I can grab it again. My mother no longer has to worry about what to do if my main weapon is broken while I’m chopping.

In order to celebrate his acquisition of the "Knight Does Not Die Unarmed" ability, Rusalka immediately opened the ability list and picked out an ability that he had wanted to buy for a long time but could not afford to buy because he had never saved up enough points.

It is true that you can save up points and buy stronger modules like the 100-point modules if you don't use them, but in this dangerous world, arming yourself as much as possible is the right choice.

Of course, you would choose to use 50 points to directly purchase a powerful ability - [Hamlet Barrier].

Hamlet's Barrier comes from a boss named Hamlet in "Seeler". It is also a beautiful childhood memory for many people in the ancient times when the elves' battles were still pure.

Of course, if we put it into real life, it cannot be said to be beautiful for every enemy, it can only be called despair.

The original effect in the game was an invincible shield that switched between "water", "fire" and "grass" attributes each round, and would only take damage from that attribute in that round. However, with the inclusion of the DM's village rules, this ability was weakened and changed to a certain extent.

But as a product worth 50 points, which is half of the points for opening the card, it is expensive, and there is a reason for its high price.

[Hamlet Barrier], Effect: After receiving a certain type of damage, you gain immunity to that type of damage, which lasts until you receive another type of damage.

Note: While both bludgeoning and slashing are considered physical damage, they are considered different damage types. When receiving mixed damage types simultaneously, such as a "Colorful Ball," the player will be immune to the damage they are immune to first, and then randomly determine the other damage types.

Note 2: Don't think this skill can help you travel underwater. When you are on the seabed, you will be affected by both "squeezing" damage and "suffocation" damage from the sea water pressure. You will die if you are destined to die.

The reason why I didn't choose this when opening the card is, on the one hand, because the DM can see the card, and this thing is very easy to be targeted in PVE. It is too easy to design a mixed damage boss like the Evil Eye Tyrant, where each eye has different attributes. The 50 points are equivalent to white points.

On the other hand, the main reason might be because this was like Note 2 written specifically for him: if you are going to die, you have to die, which means that even if he learned it, he couldn't date and cuddle with Zhu Lei Ai Ge on the seabed, and he lost interest instantly.

You asked him if he had considered the possibility that the Pearly Tear Singers tribe would not be included in the DM's copy?

This is what Rusalka thought at the time. After all, the script was written by DM, and everyone was working together offline. It was just a matter of making up a race. At most, she could buy DM a cup of milk tea and ask him to make a separate story for her where she was close to the mermaid.

Trivia: A good self-created DM who can write a good plot will definitely be able to write good erotic fiction as well.

The quality and length of the article depend on the price and quantity of milk tea.

It turned out that he was too naive. He didn't expect the other party to be serious: he had traveled through time!

No, no, no, no normal person would not have thought that he would travel through time and space into a dungeon and change from pve to pvp, so now that God has given him a second chance to choose, he decisively took this pvp skill that he had long coveted.

Are you kidding? We've all traveled through time, so who would jump into the sea for no reason? Mermaid? How could they be as cute as my cat?

I, Rusalka, have always been a firm fan of Beast Ears. I always play Iron Beast Front and Little Animal Pirri when playing decks. I have never heard of Pearl Tears Lament.

With this skill, as long as you don't encounter those legendary creatures with very high challenge levels, very brutal attack methods, and very strange gameplay, dealing with cricket humans is no problem at all.

Especially those elven archers who like to coat their arrows with poison, Rusalka originally possesses the noble talent of [Poison Immunity] and will not be affected by poison-type damage. In this way, unless those archers do some tricks, Rusalka can just walk up to the opposite side and kill them one by one with hundreds of snipers.

Sanitta asked Rusalka a question: (If I hit you with a knife, shoot you with an arrow, and then hit you with a knife again, over and over again, wouldn't that mean that your 50 points will be wasted?)

Rusalka replied: (You're right, but first, you have to make sure that every different type of damage can penetrate my armor. Don't forget that I have the dual armor master talent, and the attacks of small fry can't trigger my shield at all. And I'm not a stupid AI, can't I judge when to use shield spells to block different types of damage and maintain the specificity of my immunity shield?

Secondly, the essence of this ability lies in information asymmetry. Now that I can't even see my own cards, how are these natives supposed to know I have this invincibility shield? With this information asymmetry, as long as you don't imitate the villains in the hot-blooded youth comics and proactively tell them the names and effects of your moves before a fight begins, they'll never guess I have such a trick.

Finally, when serious people fight, who uses a single blade to chop off a weapon? Do you think you're Tsukuyomi or Honbu Izō? Even Jax, the so-called Master of Weapons, only uses a street lamp. Aphelios is okay, but the real Aphelios doesn't use a single blade to chop off a weapon. If that doesn't work out, I'll just beg his sister to lock him up with the blue and purple blade.

Sanita thought about it according to Rusalka's ideas and felt that Rusalka did play a lot of PVP and was very experienced.

If the enemy doesn't know about this thing, there is really no way to detect it and they can only rely on guessing. For example, the fireball machine gun tower will make Rusalka immune after the first shot. You may still foolishly think that the opponent's "magic shield" is severely damaged.

Think about it from another perspective. If Rusalka himself encountered this thing, it would be difficult for him to deal with it with only the damage of light and slashing.

Rusalka: (Hello, easy to deal with. It turns out that my spear is more powerful than my shield. Because my Path of Holy Vengeance allows my Radiant Damage to ignore this immunity, the opponent's shield is useless in front of my Holy Slash.

And they're not even immune to my greatsword's physical slashes. Why? Because according to the settlement order mechanism, after my greatsword hits the opponent, they're cut into a physical shield, and the settlement mechanism of Holy Slash is "first determine the hit damage, then decide whether to activate Holy Slash." At this time, if I activate Holy Slash again, the opponent will be cut into a Radiant Shield due to the Radiant damage, and this cycle repeats.

You are right, but you should first determine the hit and then jump out the damage number before deciding whether to activate it. This is the invincible Paladin's Holy Slash, a design product after drinking fake wine. Even this broken mechanism can be used in reality. I just tried it, and the opponent's mage gave me a thumbs up before he died. We Paladin players are really good at it.

Oh, I almost forgot, I have a magic bond weapon now, so my attack is a noble two-choice damage type, and this shield is useless in front of me.)

Sani Iron Tower: (6, now I'm really going to beat you as a boss.)

Now the hp of the level 7 poet's Sani Tower is 44 points.

而4级圣武士+3级邪术师的鲁莎卡，已经111点hp了，满状态情况下【律令：死亡】这个直接秒杀100血以下的垃圾9环法术都秒不掉他了。

Level 7 resistance to nine rings, this is the confidence that the reinforcement brings me - Rusalka.

I hope he can add two points of intelligence when he reaches level 8 - Sani Iron Tower.

Chapter 78 Luck

As soon as Rusalka opened her eyes, she began to shout in the private chat channel: (The time has come, the blade is unsheathed! I, thirst for blood! My skills are stirring, it whispers in my ear, to celebrate the birth of my new weapon with souls, I am the Overlord, I am Destruction, I am the embodiment of the Cataclysm, I am, Deathwing! The day I awaken is the beginning of a new era, even if you pray to your gods, your pleas will not receive any response~)

Seeing Rusalka's energetic private chat, Sanitita played along, and seeing him happy, he responded: (The side effects of reaching level 3 as a Warlock are so severe? Is your brain connected to C'Thun and Ben? I shouldn't call you Master Daxiao anymore, I should call you Xiaohuowang, right?)

Rusalka: (Mom!!! I can't tell the difference, I really can't tell the difference... Haha, just kidding, let's have some fighting.)

Sanitita knew that he was just tempted to perform, and replied indifferently: (No.)

Rusalka didn't believe it: (Nonsense! Didn't the City Guards' commander say that the Warrior Master had already sent a letter to the eldest son of the Conesnat family, asking him to lead the invincible infantry legion back to retake my Silver City? What's the matter? Your appetite is getting bigger and bigger. Can you take all the kickbacks from my city defense battle?)

Sanita: (Yes, I took the kickbacks. So I beg you to come to my office sometime and take a look at the paperwork that has accumulated on my desk for the past few days. I've been busy helping the maids move their suitcases these past two days and haven't paid any attention to state affairs, have I?)

Rusalka: (It's embarrassing for me, with only 20 Strength, to stand by and watch those maids carry heavy things. Don't worry, Phoenix won't be jealous.)

Sani Tieta: (You idiot, come to the office quickly, or I'll set this place on fire too.)

Damn it, I somehow traveled to another world, and ended up being forced to go to work by my brothers. I don’t even have weekends off. What kind of world is this? As a lord, I would cry after reading the Geneva Convention on Prisoners of War.

If it weren't for the fact that people nowadays don't get tired or sleepy, Rusalka would have been in a bad mood and skipped work for a few days to rest.

Although he was rebellious in his heart, his body was very obedient. He got up obediently, washed, tidied himself up a little, and hurried to the office.

I saw Sanita flipping through documents early in the morning like a working machine. Rusalka guessed that he had not slept all night again. On weekdays when he didn't need to restore his ring position and magic power, Sanita really didn't sleep. He kept working and studying, and was more hardworking than AI.

He pointed to the helpless Rusalka and pointed to the several documents he had sorted out on the side. "Those are the important ones. Just look at these. I'll use your stamp to approve the other daily matters."

Rusalka complained, "Can't you just privately chat with me about something? Bro, you've already reviewed and approved it, so why are you asking me to review it again? This reward for farming can't be obtained multiple times."

Sanita: "What if I am no longer around?"

Rusalka: "You talk as if you're going to die soon. What bad luck! I'd die without you too. I'm going to the bottom of the sea to find the Pearl Tear Singers. I can't stand this miserable life any longer."

Sanitieta rolled his eyes. "Think about it. We're moving to Silver City soon. As your personal aide, I'll have to personally handle a lot of things, including visiting and making friends. These all require me to travel outside. It's unlikely that I'll be in the City Lord's Mansion on weekdays. So, will I be able to split myself up and help you handle government affairs?"

Rusalka: "Ah, can't I?"

Sanita: "Fuck, of course not!"

Rusalka: "Then do you want an allowance for your business trip? I'll give it to you from Maomao's dowry. You should remember my kindness now. After Maomao and I get married, I'll help you keep all the private money I've hidden. This is called a brotherhood fund."

Just as Rusalka finished her dirty talk and before Sanita could speak, Phoenix suddenly walked out from a black mist in the corner, scaring Rusalka so much that her hand holding the paper couldn't help but tremble.

Fortunately, Phoenix didn't seem to hear Rusalka's words. She just asked, "Would you like breakfast?"

Rusalka then remembered that it was indeed breakfast time. He had been directing the moving work at home in the mornings these days and had not been to the office. When it was time for lunch, the maid working nearby naturally reminded him, and he almost forgot the usual job of reminding him to eat, which had always been done by Phoenix.

Rusalka glanced at Sanita guiltily and said, "Let's eat first."

"Row."

Sanita agreed, then exchanged glances with Rusalka and teased in private: (You were quite talkative just now, why are you so quiet now? Come on, why aren't you continuing?)

Rusalka: (Damn it, I'll only chat with you in private from now on. Luckily, Phoenix probably didn't hear that reaction, right?)

Sanita: (Why are you asking me? Why don’t you just ask her?)

Rusalka: (Man, that's terrifying! I definitely wouldn't dare ask. What if she hears me? What should I say? If I say I was joking, wouldn't it be stupid of me to ask? It's better to just pretend nothing happened. She'll know I was joking.)

Sanita: (Cowardly.)

Today's breakfast consisted of bread with jam and a cup of hot milk. After Rusalka and Sanitta sat down, Rusalka, feeling guilty, subconsciously called out to Phoenix to join them. "Our bread at home is much better than the one at the front. Phoenix, come and have some too."

Sanita always sat in the first seat on Rusalka's right. Phoenix hesitated for a moment, then pulled out the empty seat on Rusalka's left and sat down.

The maid in charge of breakfast today showed a look of shock when she saw Phoenix sitting down. She then walked over with a food cart and placed a standard breakfast in front of Phoenix with an envious look in her eyes. "Please enjoy your meal."

Phoenix preferred jam. She picked up the spoon, scooped a piece from the jam bowl and placed it on her bread. She tore the square bread apart and clamped it to make a jam sandwich. Then she started to eat it in big mouthfuls. She could eat a quarter of the bread in one bite, second only to Rusalka's two bites for one and Sanita's three bites for one.

In the past, Rusalka might have sighed, "I thought Phoenix would lick her food like a kitten, that would be cute."

But after going to the battlefield and having meals together, Rusalka has now become accustomed to Phoenix's somewhat unsightly eating habits, calling it a cute contrast.

Sanita: (You are quite hypocritical.)

Rusalka: (What do you know? Eating big mouthfuls is a sign of health. Phoenix is ​​an ace assassin, she should eat more. She should eat according to the standard of strength 20 and constitution 20. Eating fast is in line with battlefield standards. What soldier would be so slow when eating?)

Sanita: (I think you are crazy. You are raising a baby dragon.)

After breakfast and cleaning up, Rusalka still wanted to slack off, so she applied for a walk after breakfast, saying, "Take a walk after breakfast and live to be ninety-nine." However, her application was rejected by Sanita and she was dragged back to the office to work.

Phoenix finished her jam and milk, then asked the maid who was waiting to clean up to do her job first. She cleared the tableware herself and left with the dining cart.

----

Rusalka stretched and yawned, then slowly began to pick up the documents and read them. Sani Tower had organized them quite well. The first letter was a completion application report from the processing plant, saying that it could be officially put into operation, and hoped that Rusalka could choose a day to review it in person and hold a ribbon-cutting ceremony.

Although the ribbon-cutting ceremony was an activity that was only held on the first day of opening in the previous life, in this place where other rituals besides casting spells are not so important, production efficiency and making money are the first factors. The ribbon-cutting ceremony can be scheduled on any day, and the lord can go there to say a few words to motivate everyone and ask for good luck.

Rusalka thought it was no problem: "Is this all you need to show me?"

Sanita: "If I don't show you, you'll say something about forcibly dragging you into the sea and becoming a ship girl on an expedition."

Rusalka curled her lips and continued to look at the next document.

This document was quite long and contained war intelligence from the central government, but its signature was the part that shocked Rusalka the most.

"Count Basile?" Given the exponentially growing gap between the ranks of the Duke, Earl, and Prince, the possibility of the Count writing to a Baron was as odd as a division commander calling a squad leader. This prompted Rusalka to ask a profound question: "Who is he sending this to?"

Sanitta replied, "Strictly speaking, our city is still under the jurisdiction of the Earl's family under Grand Duke Delai."

"I remember now. According to the kingdom's division system, our city is just a shared city." Rusalka counted on her fingers. "The big fish eat the small fish, right? The Viscount is the city lord, but within the boundaries of the superior marquisate, the Marquis has jurisdiction. And then there's the Earl, who also has jurisdiction. Not to mention the Duke. There are three dukes in one kingdom. Does that mean I, a lousy city lord, have three higher-ranking officials over me?"
