Chapter 2860 - 1356: Fivefold Body

As fellow big shots on the ranking list, setting aside those like Kordova who aren’t even human, Mo, who’s almost become a special guest in this book, Xinglong who truly understands the game, and Christina with peculiar attributes that often drop her off the front page, there aren’t many who can be directly compared.

Among them, Double Leaf and Snow Bathing Sword, who are generally in the mid to upper tier of players, can practically be classified in the same rank, and under the premise of being in the same rank, there is certainly room for mutual learning.

On this basis, Double Leaf, who constantly strives to improve his or her strength, had previously watched on-site the match of the [Comprehensive Knight Skill Competition]. Although it was just the finals, the technical content of the duel between Snow Bathing Sword and Motan was very high, even using the left-hand sword, making it extremely valuable for reference.

Admittedly, Snow Bathing Sword’s profession is the unique special branch [Sword Maniac] in the warrior series swordsman branch, a pure physical profession swinging weapons to meet opponents head on, having nothing to do with mysticism.

Double Leaf’s profession, on the other hand, is the special branch [Magic Controller] in the Mage series, a pure spellcaster who doesn’t even perform flowery martial moves, just bombards with various elements, following a straightforward mysticism path.

However, this absolutely doesn’t mean that professions with completely different styles have no value for reference.

To give a simple example, in an RPG game, a professional mage player watching a professional warrior player’s battle, really won’t gain anything?

The answer is, of course, no. If it’s PVE, as fellow professional players, the opponent’s positioning, strategy, timing of skill release, approach to bosses, handling of various buffs and debuffs, are all aspects to reference, without needing self-insertion. Instead, one absorbs and refines these experiences, adjusting them to one’s own profession, habits, and even character, to make them applicable.

If it’s PVP, there’s even more to learn. Not mentioning anything else, simply speculating the approach against a warrior through the mindset of a warrior is already a significant gain, most importantly, it’s an expansion of mindset.

The reason "reinventing the wheel" is a derogatory term is precisely due to these various reasons.

Therefore, in other words, as long as Double Leaf isn’t a fool, after watching such a high-quality match by Snow Bathing Sword (PS: due to differing levels, Motan and Wang Badan can only become background characters), she’d definitely gain some insights.

Is Double Leaf a fool?

The answer is clear; not only is she not a fool, but she’s also a genuine genius beauty. Despite her rather slim build, it doesn’t hide her exceptional wisdom.

For Double Leaf herself, the insights gathered from watching that match were not just a little, but a significant chunk.

The direct outcome is what she now demonstrates, a scene chilling enough by mere sight ——

[Remark 1: Since the skill was self-created, the remarks should be self-made too...]

[Remark 2: Ha!]

[Remark 3: After a flat-chested otaku girl witnessed a white straight hair chuunibyou girl unleashing great power, researched for a total of 68 game hours and created this skill. In reality, it’s just an adjustment to the structure of Mirror Image, with a ridiculously low technical content. Without the corresponding weapon, it’s essentially a useless skill.]

[Remark 4: Four-eyes airfield! Not even 1.6 meters! Bleh bleh bleh bleh bleh!]

...

Truth be told, when Double Leaf successfully created and mastered this skill, she was momentarily taken aback at the remarks but wasn’t vexed by stimulation; instead, she laughed cheerfully. She had long suspected that the system of The Realm of Innocence had some similarities with her AI NAVI, or perhaps the latter was a superior upgraded version in various aspects. Thus, she had been probing the game system in various ways through her methods.

It must be said, Double Leaf’s sensitivity in this area is far sharper than Motan’s, and far more enthusiastic than Motan. To know that as early as the initial period of The Realm of Innocence’s launch, this girl had been intentionally spending about ten to twenty minutes every day from the login interface to harass the system. Regardless of frequency or intensity, it far exceeds the ’Chaotic Neutral’ persona of Motan. Even without receiving any feedback, she was endlessly enthusiastic.

As an IT genius capable of developing a Heaven-defying AI like NAVI, Double Leaf had long determined the ’System’ absolutely has consciousness, which sparked an intense thirst for knowledge, to the extent of wanting to reference it to upgrade NAVI.
