Chapter 8: a tribe named Aima part 1
It doesn't let me walk too long that I can see a big group of horse in front of me. About tens of thousands of horses are driving by more than ten herders. I have seen it only in TV before. But now the sight of this is even shock me more than TV. Oh I hear the game is made mainly by computer itself. If it is made by human, this scene only can cost hundreds of programmer half a month.
I greet to the herder near to me. Luckily, there is automatic translation in the game. I am not dare he doesn't understand me. He is amazed to see me because here is quite far from any village and they don't have the Transfer Matrix also. (Here won't be the born place of player) So no one came here before me.
But I got difficult to buying horses. They didn't use money here. They didn't transfer anything outside. And transfer inside is in the form of barter. I talk with him for a long time he finally decides to introduce me to the patriarch. The patriarch is very kind. As the first player arrive here. He sends me a pony of the greatest horse - god horse in the ground. But I am felling embarrassed to receive his gift without doing anything. I ask him if I could do anything to the tribe and so I spark two missions: defeat monsters hunt horses and healing the disease of horse.
This tribe named "Aima" consists of tens of people. Except normal herder there's some special NPC: 2 professional fighters, 1 jewelry craftsman. It seems that they maybe will have some special things to spark. At least it is better than the forgotten village. So I decide to stay for some times because the two missions can't be finished in a minute.
I use my "primary healing" and "the red fruit" to the horse and surprisingly find their disease is relieved a little. It gives me a lot of hope. So I use my healing right now when my MP once recovers to 10. It made another surprising thing - a herder kids is cured by my healing. Although only once, it make their favorability rise up. No longer after that, I learned "horse riding", "grazing" and "monster controlling". It let me feel very exciting.
With "horse riding", the horse which was always very hard to ride becomes obedient. This pony patriarch send to me is named "flying". It has a really good blood, is at the highest rank of the 9 grades of horse. But now is in the growing period, can only express half of its ability.
"Grazing" is used to control animal that feed by people such as horse, bull or goat (it can't be used on monsters). My primary grade "grazing" can control 10 livestock. But the herder in expert degree can control more than ten thousands of them. And grazing can also increase the reproduction rate of those livestock.
"Monster controlling" is a useful skill in the fighting. In primary grade, it can only control monsters and let them keep calm for some seconds (the monsters are fighting is very hard to control). It I practice it to a high degree, I even can let the monster become my temporary pets or even permanent pet and let them help me fighting with other monsters.
No one will think his skill is too much. After talking, and showing them the skin of wolf king and the tooth of wolf king. I get respect of two fighters. And get their skills: "primary knife usage" and "primary bow usage" and I show the jewelry craftsman looked at the ring I get from wolf for some while. Through he can't identify, he still says it open his eyes and teach me "the method of making jewelry".
While I am collecting skills, the player "Holy Devil" is already leveling to 40, and gets first equipment in platinum grade. I suddenly realize it is time for me to leveling. After all, I am not good at playing living profession. It cost me too much to master so many skills.
Tribe is not a good place to leveling. It lacks the most important thing - healing potion. Although I lent their bow and arrow, but they are all stone grade (not made of stone, it's the grade of equipment). They are all too weak and can't deal any damage to the monsters in higher defense. Almost everyone here has bow skills and one of them even have skill in expert grade. They still have nothing to do to these monsters.
I'm about to leave. But to pay back their kindness, I decided to try my best to help them defeat the monsters as much as possible. In the help of the fighters in the tribe and traps, I killed hundreds of monsters in 10 hours. I am leveling to 23 also. But because there are too many people help me. My point is not very high, only 7 in all.
But my kindness is get paid finally, my "healing" is leveling to the second grade in primary. Then the process of healing horses is easier. Some of the horses are fully cured. The patriarch thinks I finished his two missions. And reward me:"the warrior of Aima" medal, it can increase my 2 powers and 1 explosion ability. It is more beautiful than the "village guard"(badges signify status and medal signify honor can equipped many).
