Chapter 124 - 124 123 The Essence of Stability124: Chapter 123: The Essence of Stability 124: Chapter 123: The Essence of Stability The skills taught by the Forest Patrol only cover how to aim and how to draw a bow, but they wouldn’t immediately improve your hit rate.

This requires a long period of practice.

How did she, a Druid, manage to do it?

Forums have statistics and summaries for most of the professions these days.

There are a total of eleven professions, and based on the focus of their abilities, these professions are divided into three categories: Spell-based, Skill-based, and Spell Skill-based.

Spell-based professions mainly utilize spells in combat, including Mages, Magicians, Priests, and Druids.

Skill-based professions derive their ability from various skills and lack spell-casting abilities, including Warriors, Barbarians, Wanderers, and Martial Monks.

Spell Skill-based professions have both spell-casting capabilities and offensive professional skills, including Bards that can use some Mage spells, Paladins that can use some Priest Divine Arts, and Forest Patrol that can use some Druid Divine Arts, but the spells they can use are very limited, mainly relying on skills to combat and spells for support.

In Spell-based professions, spells cannot be upgraded but will enhance differently as the Profession Level increases, bearing the necessity to learn higher-level spells after leveling up.

However, many skills in Skill-based professions can only be upgraded through practice.

For instance, basic Arrow Technique can be upgraded to Arrow Mastery.

But unlike Profession Level, the upgrading of skills can’t be expedited by using some Slaughter Experience; it has to be through genuine practice.

Thus, there are very few players who have trained their skills to the point of upgrading, most of whom had some basis initially.

Upgrading in Spell-based professions requires experience and meeting certain standards in spell learning.

For Skill-based professions, it requires practicing the professional skills to a certain level.

Spell Skill-based professions consider both aspects.

Spell-based professions may face leveling blocks due to attributes that do not meet the requirements for higher-level spells, and it’s hard to find solutions to this problem.

But for Skill-based professions, attributes only affect the power of the skills; there are no thresholds for learning the skills, but upgrading the skills is the challenging part.

Consequently, Spell-based professions have high thresholds and rely more on Talent; if the Spell Casting Attribute isn’t sufficient, they hit an upper limit, whereas Skill-based professions don’t have thresholds, but becoming very powerful is tremendously difficult, resulting in situations where Spell-based professions at the same level are stronger than Skill-based professions.

In other people’s eyes, Mu Ying, a Druid who had neither bow and arrow skills training nor was anything special before the apocalypse, had astonishingly good Archery, which seemed unscientific and was enough to make those Forest Patrols with Archery as their official skill feel ashamed.

In reality, Mu Ying benefited from the Elf Race, having a naturally high agility attribute, further enhanced by the Thousand Faces Set and the agility boosts from spells, and starting with the second Stage of Arrow Mastery, which allowed for shooting while moving, combined with the assistance of the Crosshair Skill, made her shots both accurate and fast.

It can be seen from her Druid spells and professional abilities that this really is a profession not outstanding in offensive capability but abundant in various supports, playing a versatile role in a team but rather mediocre when acting alone.

But Mu Ying isn’t a typical Druid; she doesn’t need to provide support for others, supporting herself with her array of spells, creating an effect greater than the sum of parts.

The Elf Race Skills compensated for her lack in offensive means, and the gains from the Ten Thousand Worlds Trial further diversified her strengths.

Generally, Druids are without weaknesses but also without strong points, consistently mediocre, whereas Mu Ying has no weaknesses and excels in every aspect.

Eventually, the group of level 3 Ghouls didn’t cause any trouble.

After harvesting materials from the Ghouls, everyone joyfully divided the spoils and went home.

That evening, the copper coin pawnshop was packed with customers.

Another wave of financially comfortable residents moved into the Tree House.

The next day, they tried the same trick, but no ghouls appeared again.

Mu Ying thought about the situation she had seen last time in the Ghoul Replica, and decided to keep watch for a few more days.

Meanwhile, inside the Ghoul Replica, within the abandoned tomb’s hall, a Demon Ghost glared at the Replica gate with resentment.

It was much more intelligent than the ghouls.

It had thought that by sending out most of the ghouls in one go this time, there wouldn’t be the continuous lack of returns like before.

The two bodies collected yesterday had proved its strategy effective.

But today, those dumb creatures hadn’t returned, and it feared the worst.

Those were most of its minions!

What good were the few remaining kittens?

Sensing the Demon Ghost’s rage, several ghouls trembled in fear.

The Demon Ghost decided to endure and wait until the Replica fully merged before striking out.

It glanced at the Stone Gate behind the Stone Chair, “Hmph, when the time comes, I’ll make those humans outside pay!”

With no new ghouls appearing for several days, the encirclement action was temporarily concluded.

“Lord, based on the numbers you saw last time, there shouldn’t be many ghouls left in the Replica.

Why don’t we go in and explore?”

Someone, not yet satisfied, wanted to pursue the victory.

“Level 5 Demon Ghost, do you think I can beat it?” Mu Ying looked at the person speaking, a bit unfamiliar, but she recognized his companion as the tall guy who had asked her questions at the gate of Spirit Dragon Gorge Camp.

“You’re also Level 5 now?” Guan Hai had already been impressed by her, trusting her abilities immensely.

Mu Ying saw others nodding in agreement with Guan Hai’s words, twitching the corner of her mouth, “I’m just a Druid who isn’t good at attacking.

Even if we’re at the same level, how can I directly confront someone without even knowing a Level 3 spell I just upgraded to, especially on their own turf?”

“Really can’t do it?” Liu Luoluo also asked.

Mu Ying: ...

“Really can’t!”

“Lord, you just lack confidence.

Your arrow technique, whoosh whoosh whoosh, accurate every shot, just go in and pin down its limbs with a few shots,” Guan Hai became more and more excited, almost imagining Mu Ying devastating the enemy.

Mu Ying held her forehead, “Not to mention my arrows are intangible and can’t pin anything down, even if they could, the Demon Ghost would break free in no time, and the shooting speed isn’t that fast either.

I’m telling you not to get carried away; what do you think is most important in the apocalypse?”

“Money!”

“Attributes!”

“Equipment!”

“Strength!”

“Life!”

“Nie Ying is right, life is the most important.

Without it, you have nothing.

Let’s be cautious, not reckless.

Since the Demon Ghost can’t come out for now, can’t affect us, and can’t escape, why not wait and strengthen ourselves before challenging it?

A difference of early or late might be the difference between life and death.

Besides, I’m not even sure if I saw everything in the Replica in just one glance.

What if there’s something we missed, and we just walk in unprepared?

I certainly wouldn’t dare,” Mu Ying seriously explained to the people around her, hoping they would be more cautious in the future and protect their lives to avoid losses to their territory.

“Cautious?

That’s just cowering...” someone muttered under their breath, earning a sideways glance from another person.
