Chapter 63: Searching for the Target

  "Has the career change task finally begun?" Upon hearing the system's prompt, Lin Chen let out a long sigh of relief and hastily opened his own task interface. There were three tasks available for him to choose from: Career Change Berserker, Career Change Swordsman, and Career Change Thief.

  Seeing these three tasks, Lin Chen hesitated. Although he was charging forward with his head down, as for what profession to transfer to, Lin Chen had never really thought about it carefully. This time, instead of making a choice, Lin Chen fell into deep contemplation.

  The Berserker class, without a doubt, has the strongest combat power among the three classes, and also has various status skills to support it. Originally, choosing this class is the best option, but most of the Berserker's skills require entering a "Berserk" state to be used. After using "Berserk", the in-game attributes are greatly reduced intelligence, in exchange for increased physical attack power and defense.

  In the game, these attributes are still nothing to look at, but here in the real world, if one were to go crazy in the future, would they really enter a state of frenzy?

  With his current strength, if he were to go berserk and lose his calm, it would be truly dangerous. Rather than becoming a Berserker, Lin Chen felt that seeking the protection of the Alchemist Guild was safer.

  It has to be said that Lin Chen is very afraid of death, otherwise he wouldn't be so eager to improve his strength for the sake of his own life safety. In this world, people without strength can't even resist being killed, so after some deliberation, the state of frenzy actually made Lin Chen somewhat hesitant.

  Next is the profession of thieves, and it has to be said that Lin Chen still likes this profession very much. In the real world, as long as you hit the vital point, the target will die, unlike in games where they just lose blood. So, in this real world, the lethality of thieves is magnified invisibly.

  If the Berserker's profession is the strongest in combat power, then in this real world, the Thief is undoubtedly the deadliest, with traps, bows and arrows, poison assassination...

  However, the weaknesses of the thief profession are also obvious. Although they have the strongest killing power, their defensive ability is the weakest. Moreover, once they engage in a head-on battle with the enemy, their combat effectiveness will be greatly reduced. If they are surrounded by several people, they may even be killed by some low-strength players.

  If it were a Berserker or a Swordsman, being surrounded by several people with lower strength would be completely killable, but Thieves are not, and the main reason is that the Thief profession does not have group attack skills. On the basis of strong lethal power, it is to sacrifice one's own life safety in exchange for it. The Thief profession also made Lin Chen hesitant...

  In the end, only the swordsman was left. Although the swordsman's lethality was between the two, overall there were no particular weaknesses and his strength was fairly balanced. After all, this wasn't a game world where you could revive after dying.

  So, while getting stronger, one's own safety should be the top priority. Lin Chen felt that he should still switch to becoming a Swordsman. Although the profession of Swordsman seemed to have no bright spots overall, it was still well-rounded, with decent ranged attacks, close combat and group attacks.

  If it weren't for the thief's obvious shortcomings, Lin Chen would have definitely chosen to be a thief, and if he were to transfer jobs in the future, becoming an assassin would be even more awesome. However, after careful consideration, Lin Chen still felt that transferring to become a swordsman was the most stable and suitable choice for himself at present.

  After a moment of contemplation, Lin Chen knew what he had to do and raised his hand to choose the Swordsman's job change quest.

  "Ding, Swordman job change quest activated. Quest requirements: Solo kill a Lv 25 or above BOSS. Quest rewards: Job change to Swordman, reward Swordman skill book 'Charge', reward Swordman skill book 'Block Prejudgment'."

  "Want to take down a BOSS above Lv25 by yourself?" Lin Chen was stunned when he heard this job transfer task, although he had always known that the job transfer task was difficult, but he didn't expect it to be so difficult.

  To kill a Lv25 monster, a Lv20 character must wear a suit of high-quality equipment of the same level, which is not difficult to do. However, this Lv25 is not an ordinary monster, but a BOSS.

  "Hey? Wait a minute......", just as Lin Chen was somewhat intimidated by this Lv25 BOSS, he suddenly reacted quickly.

  This is the real world, even if it's a Lv25 BOSS, it can't be as abnormal as in the game. After all, the BOSS in the game has tens of millions of HP and is comparable to a 50-level monster. However, this is the real world, even if it's a leader-level BOSS, it's just a bit stronger.

  If you're lucky, you can take out the opponent's throat and kill them instantly. After all, back in the Sunset Forest, didn't I team up with a warrior to take down a level 32 BOSS, Flame Wolf King?

  Thinking of the Flame Wolf King's strength back then, and it was still a Lv32 BOSS, Lin Chen secretly let out a sigh of relief. If compared to that Lv32 BOSS Flame Wolf King, the Lv25 BOSS monster might not be impossible for him to solo kill.

  Lin Chen called out to Ares, who was dozing off beside him, and walked out of the training room. He found Mocha Elder and inquired about the distribution of magical beasts around the Imperial City.

  Unfortunately, although the world is full of monsters, Moka Elder is the elder of the Alchemist Guild and isn't very clear about the monster problem around him. After all, what time does an alchemist guild elder have to deal with this?

  "If you want to know the distribution of demons near the Imperial City, you can either ask someone in the army or go to the Mercenary Guild," although Moka didn't know the distribution of demons near the Imperial City herself, she still gave Lin Chen a heads up. She didn't know, but the Imperial City's army and Mercenary Guild would definitely be clear about it.

  "Oh? Mercenary?", Hearing this, Lin Chen's eyes lit up slightly. The captain of the Whirlwind Mercenary Corps wasn't inviting him to visit, was he? Although he said he would go find him tomorrow, it was only early evening now, so he shouldn't be unwelcome if he went to find him, right?

  On one hand, I can settle the affairs of the Gale Mercenaries and focus on the job transfer task tomorrow. On the other hand, I can also smoothly gather information about the distribution of the magical beasts I need.

  Lin Chen roughly tidied up his clothes and walked out of the pharmacist's guild, casually inquiring about the direction before heading towards the Stormwind Mercenary Corps.
