MMORPG: Crowd Control

There were many beginner towns available in Magnolia, and each player would be transported to them randomly once they created a new character.

Hence, the chance of their friend transporting them to the same beginner town was very minimal and would usually take them weeks or even months to meet.

And with that fact known to most, Lei Zhen was stunned completely to see Samantha arrive at the Town of Wales of all the beginner towns available.

"Well, at least I can inform Kate in Yors Castle to assist Samantha if that's the case." Lei Zhen muttered, feeling that she was going to have an easy journey compared to him.

The struggle of running away from a swarm of Goblin Mobs would forever be embedded in his memory. A traumatizing memory to be precise.

Shaking his head, Lei Zhen went ahead to call for Howard, who was guarding the door like a stone.

Howard was so dutiful sometimes that even frightened Lei Zhen occasionally. It was as if the man did not need any rest and could remain awake for the whole day without eating or drinking.

"What can I do to assist you, Chancellor?" As usual, Howard held a respectful expression and asked solemnly, ready to accomplish any tasks being assigned to him.

Lei Zhen didn't even bother to ask him to change that behavior of his since it seemed like he was programmed to behave that way.

"Howard, send a message to Kate that one of my companions has just arrived in the Town of Wales." Lei Zhen said, and before he could even continue, Howard already nodded his head.

"Understood, I'll inform Queen Kate to watch over your companion and their safety."

Lei Zhen twitched his mouth when the people serving under him were all so clever and quick-witted. Such a thing was very hard to come true, and most of the time, the people proclaimed to be the best of the best were actually not the best.

Without wasting any time, Lei Zhen gave Howard a brief description of Samantha's appearance and warned them to not overly assist her. Samantha would definitely kill him if he spoiled all the excitement and fun for her.

And while Lei Zhen was paving an easy road for Samantha to experience, Samantha was currently browsing through the stores in the Town of Wales.

"Health potion, mana potion, and temporary stats buff…" Samantha muttered softly as she glanced at the shelves that contained numerous types of potions.

Nevertheless, she was just browsing and had no intention of actually shopping for them. Her inventory consisted of the basic health and mana potions already, and she doubted she would need some temporary stats buff either for the time being.

'Let's just open my skill tree and check what is suitable to be equipped in the quick slot.' Samantha thought to herself, heeding the advice of Lei Zhen.

Although Lei Zhen tried to act like a pro and failed miserably, she was still grateful for the information he had compiled for her to comprehend.

After all, when she had tried to check Magnolia's information on the internet, there was practically zero useful information, almost as if everything was mysterious.

Though this was mainly because of people hoarding the information for their own use, with only a few of them actually being generous enough to give information out to the public.

[Skill Tree]

Skeleton Summoned: Level 1

Health: 200

Cost: 30 Mana

Description: Summon one skeleton soldier at the cost of 30 mana. The skeleton soldier would then comply with the absolute command of the summoner, even if it was ordered to kill itself. The duration of the skeleton soldier is dependent on the health points it has or if the summoner wishes to cancel the summon.

Bravery: Level 1

Buff Duration: 20 seconds

Cost: 50 Mana

Description: Bravery, a buff type for the summoned soldiers of the summoner. They would temporarily have their attack, dexterity, and speed increased. Bravery buff could be stacked together with a maximum of 3 limits. To increase the stacked buff limit, the Bravery skills need to be leveled up.

Note: Do keep in mind that the Bravery buff could only boost 3 soldiers and need to be leveled up to increase the number of soldiers eligible to be boosted at the same time.

Samantha might be a newbie in terms of gaming, but even she knew how overpowered the two basic skills she got when she read the skill description.

[Name: Sam

Class: Necromancer

Level: 1

(Health Point) HP: 500/500

(Mana Point) MP: 250/250

(Attack) Atk: 11

(Defense) Def: 8

(Intelligence) Int: 15

(Wisdom) Wis: 12

(Dexterity) Dex: 14

(Speed) Spd: 10]

And when she glanced at her character status, the health point and other stat points were all above average.

"Oh dear, Lei Zhen would surely have migraines if he knew I have such great stats," Samantha murmured, wondering if she should flex her status to his face.

She had heard about how he complained about his status and sudden limitation because of a Unique Item being forced upon him. Hence, she was kind of looking forward to the expression he would make if he learned of this.

'Oh, I'm so evil for being so tempted to make him have a headache. But then again, isn't that the joy of a gamer? Flexing their gears and stats to their friends in the guise of assisting them?' Samantha thought to herself.

Alas, her evil thoughts didn't go through because she didn't have the heart to do so. Lei Zhen had given her so much information, so it would be rude of her to repay gratitude with evil.

Instead of wanting to troll Lei Zhen, Samantha equipped her two skills to the quick slot space and made some math calculations.

According to her calculation, she could at most summon 6 skeleton soldiers at once if she wanted to use the Bravery buff on them as well.

'But the Bravery buff would only be applied to 3 skeleton soldiers because of the level limitation, so there will be 3 other skeleton soldiers that don't have the buff. Ugh, why is it so complicated?' Samantha grumbled inwardly.
