I Might As Well Quit This Lousy Wizard Profession

Chapter 287: 244 Yeah, these are the settings_3 Chapter 287: 244 Yeah, these are the settings_3 Xia Bian turned to look at the other members and noticed they all shook their heads. Then he looked back at Lin An, “I must say, I don’t understand.”

“Let me give you an example,” Lin An said.

Lin An thought for a moment and wrote on the writing pad—Witchcraft: The Deliciousness of Baked Sweet Potatoes.

The name of this witchcraft caused everyone to make strange expressions.

Lin An didn’t pay attention to their reactions and kept on speaking, “There was a wizard, her name was La Xia. She was badly injured and close to death.”

The surrounding chatter stopped, and everyone listened to Lin An’s story in unison.

“Lying weak and powerless at a street corner, cold and hungry, La Xia looked up at the gradually brightening sky, hoping to see daylight one last time before she died; she didn’t want to pass away in the cold, damp night.”

“As dawn broke, a breakfast vendor with a cart full of steaming goods passed by. The vendor, who also seemed to be living a hard life, wore starched clothes full of patches that had turned white with washing.”

“The vendor obviously noticed La Xia, hesitated for a long time, and finally picked out something from his cart after a lot of deliberation and gave her a baked sweet potato.”

“The baked sweet potato was very fragrant, and the delicious food provided La Xia with the strength to live on.”

“She always remembered how the vendor, swallowing his saliva, asked her if it tasted good, clearly reluctant to eat it himself.”

“From that point on in her life, La Xia always remembered the delicious taste of that baked sweet potato.”

“Unfortunately, due to the chaos of war, she could never find that vendor again. So to reminisce about that person and the times she almost perished, she created this witchcraft—The Deliciousness of Baked Sweet Potatoes.”

“The effect of this witchcraft was to make any food exude the aroma and texture of the baked sweet potato from her memory…”
“And every bit of emotion she felt when she first tasted it.”

Lin An tapped on the Extraordinary Spirituality and added, “The skill on the skill tree, witchcraft, is ‘The Deliciousness of Baked Sweet Potatoes.’ But it’s not just a skill; it’s a vivid color from one’s past life. That’s the ‘spirituality’ I was talking about.”

Xia Bian’s eyes lit up. After Lin An finished speaking, he turned to discuss with the members, “Creating a story background for each witchcraft, this direction is great!”

After discussing, Xia Bian hesitated for a moment but still suggested, “Lin Zhi, although I understand that this witchcraft indeed belongs to the concept of ‘spirituality’ you mentioned, if we create it as a separate skill tree, it will be easier for the players to understand.”

“Body, mind, spirituality, plus a skill tree.”

Lin An shook his head. This would indeed make it easier for players to understand, but the conceptual confusion would greatly affect the dissemination of knowledge about the Real Extraordinary World.

Although he didn’t quite agree with the boss introducing Extraordinary knowledge into the game, if it was going to be done, it couldn’t lead to misunderstandings.

“Because it’s not only the wizard’s witchcraft but also the Demon Hunter’s Breathing Skill.”

He pointed to the writing pad, “The Extraordinary Spirituality (Dark Gold Statue) actually originates from True Self Spirituality (Black Cat), just like the story I just told. ‘The Deliciousness of Baked Sweet Potatoes’ was born from a time in the past experiences.”

“Transcendents gain strength by amplifying their spirituality to carry more Spiritual Energy.”

“To be specific, wizards amplify without limits, hence their extreme uniqueness.”

“Like the baked sweet potato I mentioned, if a wizard desires a more powerful culinary spell, they must magnify the feelings from that memory, and even twist that memory out of proportion.”

“Demon Hunters, on the other hand, amplify with limitations, so they are distinctly pure.”

“Compared to the multifaceted wizards, Demon Hunters have obviously fewer skills, and they can perform fewer Extraordinary acts, but the effects are stronger. Generally, these are some rules, like guardianship, sacrifice, and the like.”

Xia Bian frowned, “It’s a bit complicated…”
Lin An spread his hands helplessly towards the boss. See, this is how it is. The real world is too complicated. Playing games is about enjoyment; no one would play if it were too complicated.

The boss was still persistent, looking earnestly at Lin An, “An, think of a solution!”

This…

Alright.

Lin An quickly mobilized his spirituality to aid his brain in thinking, his thoughts starting to race.

He suddenly realized that if this game truly spread far and wide, if it really took off, wouldn’t the definitions he was now setting become the most widely accepted in the Supernatural World?

So he looked at everyone thoughtfully, “Then we return to the setting we were just discussing, the body, the mind, the spirituality, all three together; are there any doubts about this?”

Everyone shook their heads.

“Then let’s abandon the definitions of ‘True Self Spirituality’ and ‘Extraordinary Spirituality’.”

Lin An erased the other definitions, writing on the board with an extremely serious expression, because, in his eyes, this wasn’t just a game’s setting, it was also the definition he was about to spread in the Sorcerer’s Sanctuary, as well as the definition that would one day be spread to the entire world through the game.

This was his definition.

And it would become the definition of the Supernatural World in the future!

“The body, the mind, the spirituality, the Extraordinary Body.”

“I’m sorry, but ‘skill tree’ is not a suitable name for it, I will name it ‘Extraordinary Body’.”

“A wizard’s Extraordinary Body is a Dark Gold Statue, and the way to learn is through witchcraft.”

“A Demon Hunter’s Extraordinary Body is a furnace operating inside the chest cavity, and the way to learn is through Breathing Skill.”

Lin An spoke with a serious expression, “Next, I’ll sort out their relationships for you.”

The body, the mind, the spirituality, the Extraordinary Body—there is so much to tell about the interconnections between these four, and even more differences between wizards and demon-knight hunters.

As he explained, bit by bit, the three people listening—the young boss, Zheng Miao, and Caidai—seemed to enter a dazzling Supernatural World.

While they were also Transcendents, their understanding of this world was so superficial by comparison.

They were instantly captivated.

Because they knew that what Lin An was talking about was real in life.

Moreover, many details of this content in other places would cost a great deal to learn.

And they even concerned life and death!

They were diligently taking notes of it all, and the planning team was also recording everything.

After the explanation was clear, it would be the planning team’s turn to contribute.

Xia Bian, holding a notebook, described their ideas, “Based on Lin Zhi’s settings, our game mechanism needs to record all player actions throughout the gameplay, which we will name ‘Spiritual Diary’.”

“If a wizard character wants to learn a certain type of witchcraft, they must have corresponding experiences in the ‘Spiritual Diary,’ and the vividness and difficulty of those experiences will determine the potency and even the effect of the released witchcraft.”

“For a Demon Hunter character to learn martial skills, the process is the same, and actions that go against the principles and precepts of a Demon Hunter will even weaken the intensity of their martial skills when deployed. Of course, the means to enhance the effectiveness of martial skills is similar.”

“Thus, we will design different playstyles for these two characters, based on the same map…”

“Secondly, planning from the perspective based on the mind setting.”

“We will randomly assign a personality to each character, and people with different personality traits will behave differently as wizards and Demon Hunters, and there will also be variations in different witchcraft and martial skills…”

“Players can gradually change their character’s ‘personality or traits’ to match, based on their experiences in the game, that is, the information recorded in the ‘Spiritual Diary’…”

“Thirdly…”
