Game of the World Tree

Elf blacksmith Carlos Flame has been having a good time lately.

Since the "task system", he found that he no longer has to worry about not having apprentices who assist in forging.

Of course, the premise is that you have to keep your mouth shut and can't easily tell some secrets.

Especially where there are rumors of treasures, rumors of ruins, etc.

Otherwise, these Chosen Ones will definitely run faster than a rabbit after listening to it...

They seem to have an unparalleled interest in treasure legends, relic legends and the like, and they fantasize about digging treasures and making a fortune every day.

As long as I chat with you, I will inquire about these...

However, although some people will leave, more people still show interest in forging.

Almost every day, a new Chosen came to Carlos' forging shop and asked him to teach him his forging skills.

These candidates are very hardworking and enthusiastic, and many people don't even want to be paid!

And as long as Carlos promised to teach them the skills of forging, they were willing to help Carlos to do anything.

Whether at work or in life...

There was even a female Chosen who took the initiative to undertake Carlos' meals in order to stay and study, and made a fruit feast for him every day, which almost made Carlos' appetite.

This made Carlos extremely satisfied, and at the same time, he felt more and more that the mother goddess was really great!

The mother of nature is above!

Where did the old man call the warriors from?

What a group of good children who love learning and are enthusiastic and selfless...

Hmm...though it's a little weird sometimes.

Of course, the Chosen did not always satisfy Carlos.

They also have some shortcomings that Carlos does not like.

Sometimes it even makes Carlos feel very angry.

And what dissatisfied Carlos the most was that they were too aggressive and gave up too easily.

And... sometimes too ruthless.

Almost every chosen person who came to study would propose to learn how to make equipment first.

But...forging is a technical activity, without a solid foundation, just going to learn equipment manufacturing is tantamount to building a castle in the air.

If you want to learn to forge equipment, how can you do it within a few years?

For this, Carlos also reprimanded them.

After learning that it would take at least several years to learn how to make equipment completely, almost all the Chosen Ones who heard about it chose to give up and instead asked for instructions on how to repair equipment easily...

Repairing equipment is easier to learn.

But as a senior blacksmith, Carlos still hopes that everyone can learn from the basics, work steadily, and eventually grow into an outstanding elf blacksmith!

It's just... Even with Carlos' painstaking advice, these Chosen Ones are still unwilling to give up.

After learning that equipment repair is easier to learn, most people don't learn anything, but are willing to learn how to simply repair equipment...

This even annoyed Carlos a little.

Really... There are so many things that can be done with forging technology. After ten years of patient learning, you can even create powerful magic items yourself. Why are these guys so obsessed with repairing equipment?

Just because you learn fast?

But...you can repair equipment, what's the future?

Of course, in the end, he really couldn't beat these Heavenly Chosen people, and he couldn't wait for them to keep begging, and he agreed as soon as his heart softened.

Fortunately, there are still two or three people who listen to him and are willing to calm down and learn from the basics.

And when Carlos began to teach, he was surprised to find that the talents of these people were very high, and many things could be learned as soon as they were learned!

Especially in forging techniques, many techniques that require long-term practice to form muscle memory can be easily mastered by the Chosen One after a few practice sessions.

This is actually the talent of the players' bodies at work.

Although Eve's IQ cannot be changed, but the potential of the body can be. When players learn skills, they are much faster than natives.

After all... the talent comparable to the original elves is not a blow.

However, what happened next made Carlos very disappointed and heartbroken.

Every day after the Chosen learns the ability to repair equipment, he will not come back the next day.

Basically learn to walk one by one.

Better yet, will say thank you when leaving.

Almost immediately, he slipped away happily.

And as long as you leave, basically no one will come back...

This gave Carlos the feeling that he was just a tool man who taught blacksmithing techniques, throwing it away after use.

This made the old elf feel a little aggrieved...

Why never come back?

After all... it's a teacher-disciple.

Am I so annoying?

At least...let's say goodbye when you leave?

In the same way, he doesn't really like such a Chosen One.

Of course, not all the Chosen are like that.

Those who are willing to stay for a long time basically respect him.

Carlos is old, and he still feels very keen, and many people respect him from the bottom of their hearts.

In particular, a woman named Meng Zhihan has been studying with him earnestly, and she really regards him as a teacher.

So... for these Chosen Ones, he also opened his heart and taught them all, and truly regarded them as disciples.

Forget it, everyone has their own aspirations.

Those who leave without saying hello, just leave...

They don't like me anyway, and I don't like them either!

You treat me as a tool man, then I also treat you as a tool man!

Carlos shook his head.

With this mentality, he pushed open the door of his house.

As soon as he went out, Carlos was stunned.

He found that a group of Chosen Ones were rushing around in front of his house!

And according to his impression, most of them are those who have learned skills from him.

However, many people are the ones who leave without a word once they learn to repair equipment, making him a bad impression.

How is this going?

Why are they all back?

Carlos was confused.

When these Chosen Ones saw Carlos going out, their eyes lit up.

In an instant, their faces were filled with pleasing smiles, greeting Carlos and giving gifts such as fruits:

"Ahaha, Mr. Carlos, good morning!"

"Grandpa Carlos, I'm here to see you! This is a gift for you!"

"Grandpa Carlos, thank you for teaching me your skills. I left in a hurry some time ago and didn't say goodbye to you. I'm here to visit you today!"

"Grandpa Carlos, you are looking good recently!"

Carlos:  …

Looking at the enthusiastic smiling faces, he was a little stunned.

"Hmph, everyone is gone, what are you coming back for?"

He blew his beard and said angrily.

However, his expression softened a lot.

Seeing that Carlos's expression eased, all the players rejoiced.

They surrounded the old elf, paving the way for him, and ingratiatingly said:

"You can't say that. We are very grateful for the skills you imparted!"

"Yes! Yes! I really appreciate you!"

"A teacher for one day, a father for life! Of course I have to come back to see you often!"

"Yes! Yes! Grandpa Carlos, don't be mad at us!"

After listening to their words, somewhere in Carlos' heart softened.

He glanced at the players complicatedly, sighed, waved his hand and said:

"That's it, that's it. I understand your... You are busy and have your own business, so I'm not angry."

"Go and do your business, I have received my heart, and I have to work next."

After he finished speaking, he greeted the other two Heavenly Chosen who had been studying with him humbly and continued to the forging shop.

However, the surrounding players did not leave.

They seemed to stare in a daze for a while, and then continued to please:

"Grandpa Carlos, do you need help?"

"Grandpa Carlos, I'll help you get something!"

"Grandpa Carlos, are you really not mad at us?"

Carlos:  …

What happened to these Chosen Ones?

Didn't he say forgive them?

Why... it's like it's never ending.

Suddenly, Carlos's heart moved, and some recollections came.

He rolled his eyes and said:

"You...wouldn't you be taking another mission?"

Player: ...

They were stunned at first, and then smiled again:

"Cough...where! We are all sincerely coming back to see you."

"Yes! We really want your approval!"

"That's right! I still want to make friends with you!"

Carlos:  …

"Ha ha."

He sneered twice, squeezed out of the crowd, and left.

Only a group of players stared at them with big eyes.

"Why... failed?"

"Didn't you say Carlos likes this kind of fruit very much? I even picked a lot..."

"After the apology, the goodwill did increase a little, but in the end it came back down..."

"It's too miserable! If I knew this earlier, I didn't leave in such a hurry when I left!"

"Who knows that leaving without saying hello after completing the task will also lose the NPC's favor!"

"Is this favorability system too strict?"

The players wailed.

Listening to the complaints of the players, Meng Zhihan, who had been studying with Carlos, stopped.

She glanced at the old elf who was gradually walking away, hesitated for a moment, came to the players, and sighed:

"You guys... definitely won't be able to save your goodwill."

The players listened and were stunned:

"Why not?"

"I've watched Brother Mu's video, and if I do what I like to NPCs, it should improve my goodwill!"

"Yes! I remember that Carlos likes this kind of fruit the most."

After listening to the players, Meng Zhihan shook his head:

"You watched the video, but you forgot the most important thing."

"What's up?"

The players were stunned.

"A sense of substitution and... sincerity."

Meng Zhihan pointed to his chest.

"You should take a good look at Brother Mu's video and study the real reason why he can improve the NPC's favor!"

After she finished speaking, she turned and left, keeping up with the old elf's footsteps.

Only a group of players stared at them with big eyes.

...

Similar things have been staged everywhere in Fei Leng Cui.

There are players who have found the trick and successfully boosted the NPC favorability.

But even if it is brushed high, it is only a little bit higher...

Emotional matters, except for special circumstances, how can it be so easy to improve?

More players find that their cramming is actually useless.

They found that the favorability of NPCs is far from being as easy to brush as they thought...

And at this time, they really realized how powerful Li Mu, who can achieve a comprehensive reputation rating of 100, is really!

in the sky.

Watching the players hit a wall, Eve nodded with satisfaction:

"It's time for them to hit a wall."

"Only by truly making players realize the importance of equal and sincere communication with elves, can they restrain some bad habits, and can they more effectively strengthen their cooperation with local elves..."

"If this problem is solved, then the next farming and power expansion will be much easier!"

Don't rely on the overall quality of the player.

To get them to curb their bad habits, to get them to interact with NPCs according to Eve's ideas, at the beginning, they can only be driven by rewards and punishments...

but……

Over time, it will be different.

Eve believes that once players accept the new favorability setting, their relationship with NPCs, and their attitude towards the game

Unprecedented transformation is sure to take place!
