Beside the Magic Stone Tower in the Black Forest, a gentle Mountain Breeze rustled through the leaves, creating a soft sound. Everything around had fallen back into silence after an astonishing showdown.
Fortunately, the monsters in this area were of a high Level, and there were few players undergoing job changes nearby. Otherwise, if someone happened to stumble upon the scene, it would surely cause chaos throughout the game.
As Yi Tianchen slowly gathered his thoughts and turned to look back, he found that the Hell Swordsman, Azure Abyss, was still in the process of recovering.
Lying back on the soft grass, he gazed at the starry sky through the gaps in the leaves. As he felt the Mountain Breeze lightly caressing him, he replayed the recording over and over again, observing every minute detail of the battle. Yi Tianchen couldn't help but scorn his own shameless luck.
Before he realized it, more than twenty minutes had passed.
Finally, Azure Abyss opened his deep blue eyes and scrutinized Yi Tianchen for a moment before nodding slightly. "Kid, you did well just now. You have potential!"
Yi Tianchen was taken aback and asked, "So... can I change jobs now?" He had been looking forward to this moment for nearly half the night.
"Of course you can!"
Azure Abyss nodded, propping himself up with his heavy sword as he stood. With a smile, he said, "Very well. My great lineage of Hell Swordsmen will gain new blood. From now on, you will officially become a qualified Hell Swordsman!"
"Uh..."
Yi Tianchen was startled. Before he could react, Azure Abyss seemed to teleport right in front of him, placing a large hand on his forehead.
In an instant, Yi Tianchen felt his mind go blank as a powerful magical force surged in, cleansing every meridian in his body.
"Buzz..."
"O great God of Darkness, I call upon your divine power as a Hell Swordsman. With this body as my vessel, I shall continue the new dark bloodline. In my name, grant me the mark of a Hell Swordsman..."
As the incantation echoed, an exhilarating notification suddenly appeared—
System Notification: Congratulations on successfully completing your job transfer and obtaining the new profession of [Hell Swordsman]. Your previous profession of [Swordsman] has disappeared, and all character growth records have been successfully modified. You have lost the item [Hell Token] ×1!
Soon, the light faded, and Yi Tianchen finally completed his job transfer, becoming a true Hell Swordsman. In Zero Era, a job transfer not only allowed players to learn skills but also meant that two corresponding character settings would be forcibly changed.
Firstly: After the job transfer, if a player dies normally, they will lose 20% of the experience required for their current level, while drop rates remain unchanged. If they die under a red name status, they will directly lose one level and randomly drop one piece of equipment currently equipped under that status, with no limit on the number of drops.
Secondly: After the job transfer, whether through normal or abnormal death, players will no longer be teleported back to their bound town but will instead release their soul at the nearest graveyard to the death point. To revive at their corpse requires using a revival card, while reviving at the town's revival point does not require any items.
Yi Tianchen was well aware of these mandatory modifications; the game data for Zero Era had detailed this information thoroughly. What troubled him now was why he hadn’t learned any skills after the job transfer.
“Teacher, why don’t I have any skills?” Yi Tianchen asked.
The Hell Swordsman, Azure Abyss, looked serious for a moment, glancing slightly at the night sky before chuckling softly, “Well… cough cough, learning skills requires payment!”
“I can’t believe it!” Yi Tianchen exclaimed in shock, completely caught off guard by this revelation.
Without further ado, Yi Tianchen immediately engaged in an intense conversation with Hell Swordsman Azure Abyss, which brought up a skill learning interface---
【Blade Break Slash Lv-1】: Learning cost 10 Silver Coins!
【Necromantic Binding Lv-1】: Learning cost 10 Silver Coins!
【Return of the Dead Lv-1】: Learning cost 10 Silver Coins!
【Death Entanglement Lv-1】: Learning cost 10 Silver Coins!
Each skill had a learning cost of 10 Silver Coins, totaling 40 Silver Coins for all four skills. This might not seem like a small amount for an average player, but for Yi Tianchen, it was truly insignificant.
With just a thought and the deduction of 40 Silver Coins, all four skills that could be learned were now added to Yi Tianchen's skill bar---
【Blade Break Slash Lv-1】: Active skill, consumes 10 Magic Points. It harnesses immense power to deal 110% physical damage to a single target, with a certain chance to knock the target back; cooldown of 5 seconds, can be upgraded, requires 100 skill proficiency for the next upgrade!
【Necromantic Binding Lv-1】: Active skill, consumes 10 Magic Points. Using necromantic power, it binds a single target within a five-meter range, inflicting a binding Status that lasts for 3 seconds and is canceled if the target is attacked; cooldown of 30 seconds, can be upgraded, requires 100 skill proficiency for the next upgrade!
【Return of the Dead Lv-1】: Passive skill, does not consume Magic Points. Each attack passively increases physical damage against living targets by 5%; no cooldown, can be upgraded, requires the character to reach level 20 for the next upgrade!
【Death Entanglement Lv-1】: Active skill, consumes 10 Magic Points. Using the power of death, it targets a single enemy within five meters, adding an extra 15% physical damage and a 2% critical hit rate to the next attack against that target; cooldown of 30 seconds, can be upgraded, requires 100 skill proficiency for the next upgrade!
Yi Tianchen studied each skill's specific effects, his eyes widening at the last skill, Death Entanglement. Undeniably, this was a terrifying one-hit kill skill; even at level one, its power was formidable. If it were to reach level ten, it would surely be extraordinary.
At that moment, Hell Swordsman Azure Abyss approached, slightly lowering his stylish black helmet and adopting a cool demeanor. He said, "This is all I can teach you for now. Whether you become a great Hell Swordsman in the future depends on yourself!"
Yi Tianchen nodded; he understood this well. All players in Zero Era could learn four basic skills after completing their job change at level ten. Further advancement opportunities would arise at levels 30, 60, and 100, allowing them to learn additional skills.
As for skills outside of their profession's abilities, they would have to rely on their own strength and luck to acquire them from quests or powerful bosses.
Having changed to a hidden profession and learned four basic skills, Yi Tianchen's attention finally returned to the four pieces of equipment in his inventory. He also carried a Courage Trial quest in Wolfman Valley. At this moment, Yi Tianchen was eager to transform into a butterfly and return to Southern Wilderness City.
"Teacher, is there anything else you wish to instruct me?" Yi Tianchen asked.
"No, you can leave now. But remember to be cautious of those hypocritical people from the Light faction!" Hell Swordsman Azure Abyss reminded Yi Tianchen kindly before heading toward the Magic Stone Tower with his heavy sword.
Yi Tianchen paused: "What about you? Are you going to stay here?"
If Light Swordsman Luo En could find this place, then others who despised darkness would surely come as well. Yi Tianchen worried about what would happen if Hell Swordsman Azure Abyss encountered any trouble; who would he turn to for intermediate, advanced, or ultimate job advancements?
Hell Swordsman Azure Abyss chuckled and said, "Don't worry; I've inscribed an invisibility magic mark on this stone tower that conceals my presence. As long as I don't leave the tower, they will never find me!"
"Invisibility magic?" Yi Tianchen looked at the countless magical marks on the surface of the tower and suddenly understood.
The stone tower was actually very close to Southern Wilderness City. Since the Hell Swordsman, Azure Abyss, dared to stay here, there must be a reason for it. Moreover, there is an old saying that the most dangerous place is often the safest place. You searched everywhere but remained right under your noses.
As Yi Tianchen watched the figure of the Hell Swordsman, Azure Abyss, disappear into the stone tower and was about to turn away, a voice echoed from within the tower again: "Kid, as a great Hell Swordsman, without this, you can't truly be considered a real Hell Swordsman!"
With that exclamation, Yi Tianchen suddenly looked up and saw a blue book being thrown down. He caught it and was immediately stunned. This was actually a Skill Book, the one with the lowest drop rate in Zero Era!
Trembling, Yi Tianchen held this precious Skill Book and felt his heart race. Then with a "pop," the Skill Book transformed into a burst of blue light and seeped into Yi Tianchen's palm---
【Heavy Sword Without Edge Lv-1】: Automatic skill, does not consume Magic Points. Each time you attack a target, this skill automatically triggers, adding an extra 5% physical damage to the target. Weapon restriction: heavy sword; no cooldown; can be upgraded; requires character level 20 for the next upgrade!
Looking at the skill description, Yi Tianchen was completely dumbfounded!
An automatic skill was a very rare category in Zero Era. Without any effort, Yi Tianchen had obtained such a valuable automatic Skill Book from his mentor. His luck was indeed more astonishing than a meteor striking Earth.
In an instant, Yi Tianchen felt a surge of confidence and power. Everything had undeniably declared that a powerful player had just been born!
Turning around, Yi Tianchen grasped the Serpent Shadow Sword and headed briskly towards the direction of Southern Wilderness City...
