Chapter 48 Three Major Occupations

Edgar seems to be dissatisfied with Homelander.

This is Kevin's guess through the conversation with Edgar.

This is normal.

Although Homelander is powerful and is the most perfect superhuman in the Water Group, excluding this point, there is no trait in him that Edgar likes.

Arrogant, conceited, willful, extreme personality, and various other defects.

If the Water Group could not find someone to replace him, Homelander would have stepped down from the position of captain of the Seven Team.

So when Edgar thought that Kevin had the possibility of replacing him, he came to talk to Kevin and test Kevin's intentions.

But in fact, Kevin really didn't have any idea about the captain of the Seven Team.

Speaking of making money, Kevin actually makes enough money now, mainly because he often goes to the bottom of the sea to fish out some sunken antiques and gold and silver jewelry to sell.

In the card that does not belong to the Water Group, tens of millions have been saved now. Even if he leaves the Water Group now and pays a large amount of liquidated damages, Kevin still has a lot of savings.

Kevin no longer values ​​his position in the Seven-Man Team.

The reason why he stayed in the Seven-Man Team was that this identity made it easier for him to get in touch with the plot, and getting in touch with the plot would allow Kevin to gain more skill points.

Kevin discovered a long time ago that there were more ways to gain skill points than just changing the plot.

Changing the plot was just to gain the most basic skill points. If Kevin could participate in the plot after the change, he would also gain skill points continuously.

In other words, change and participation were the correct ways to gain skill points.

Kevin kept Kimiko with him, which was part of the plot. Therefore, even if he failed to change the plot during this period, Kevin also gained the skill points that could upgrade the water flow control to LV4.

As for participating in the plot, staying in the Seven-Man Team was undoubtedly the easiest way to participate in the plot.

After all, the entire Black Robe plot revolved around the Black Robe, the Seven-Man Team, and the Water Group.

This was the only motivation for Kevin to stay here.

If Kevin could have another way to gain skill points, he would not have to stay in the seven-man team.

"Captain... I feel like this is another trouble..."

After returning home, Kevin rubbed his forehead and pondered.

Although Homelander is easy to coax, he is not always easy to coax. If he finds out that someone is lying to him, he will kill them without mercy, even if it is the person he loves the most.

For example, Madeline.

Although Madeline has been "in love" with Homelander in a special identity in order to use Homelander, she is still one of Homelander's favorite people.

As a result, when he knew that Madeline had concealed the matter of his son, Homelander killed her without much reluctance.

From this, we can see that Homelander is an extremely selfish and cruel person.

Comforting and flattering can only stabilize him for a while.

If you want to stabilize him forever, you can only be stronger than him.

But Kevin doesn't have the strength to compete with Homelander now. If Homelander knows that Kevin may become the new captain of the seven-man team at this time...

Homelander might really want to kill Kevin.

But speaking of improving strength, Kevin now has fourteen skill points... no, fifteen skill points, so he can try to distribute them.

Through getting along with Kimiko, Kevin gained two skill points, plus the twelve skill points he originally gained by changing the hijacking incident, he originally had fourteen.

But what Kevin never expected was that he did nothing today, just communicated with these survivors, and he gained a new skill point.

On the one hand, this confirmed Kevin's guess, and participating in the changed plot is also a part of gaining skill points.

On the other hand, it also gave Kevin more choices.

He now plans to set up a "victim rescue team" to specifically help him save the characters by changing the plot.

In this way, he can gain more skill points.

However, fifteen skill points are still not enough for Kevin to upgrade one of the LV4, but Kevin can try to change his job.

After all, Kevin really wanted to know what the job change was.

"Click [Water Sword] first, then click [Water Ball]. Hmm... Let's click one and see..."

After deciding, Kevin looked at the two skill icons with full points behind [Water Flow Control] and complained in his heart.

He was very confused before. He obviously had Water Flow Control. Wouldn't it be redundant to get a Water Ball or Water Sword?

So Kevin never looked at these two skills and didn't even want to click them.

But these two skills are the skills that must be clicked on the road to [Job Change]. This makes Kevin feel very disgusted. He is neither good nor bad.

Now that he has enough skill points, he can try to click them and see what these two skills are.

Anyway, lighting up skill points is divided into two steps, one is to allocate skill points, and the other is to confirm directly.

If these two skills are not to your liking, and the job transfer is not as good as expected, Kevin can completely withdraw the allocation of skill points and accumulate them for the next upgrade.

First, he clicked on the water sword, and the number of skill points decreased by one. Then Kevin clicked on the water sword again, and the number of skill points decreased by one again...

Wait.

Minus one! ?

Kevin clicked on the second-level water sword, and had not yet determined the allocation of skill points, and then looked at the remaining skill points.

It was thirteen points.

He tried to click on the first-level water sword again, and the number of skill points increased from thirteen to twelve.

Kevin was shocked.

"This skill only needs one point to upgrade to the next level?"

For the previous skills, one point was required for the first level, two points for the second level, four points for the third level, and eight points for the fourth level.

Each time it was doubled.

Kevin originally thought that these two skills were also the same, but he did not expect that these two skills would save skill points so much.

"No... no matter how much I save, this skill is useless, it's just a waste of my skill points..."

Although the waste is less than expected.

Kevin complained in his heart, and quickly upgraded the water sword to level 3, and also upgraded the water ball to level 3.

Of course, he just allocated it, and didn't really decide to use it.

Then Kevin found that he seemed to have misunderstood.

This water sword and water ball didn't seem to be as useless as he imagined.

Kevin can indeed form a sword and a ball by controlling the water flow himself, that's right.

But the skill that is activated is a little different from the water sword and water ball he formed.

To put it simply, the skill that is activated has its own enchantment.

If the water sword created by Kevin can cut ordinary wood and metal under his control.

Then the water sword created by the skill can cut higher-level alloys, and it is not impossible to even cut the skin of some superhumans with hard skin.

Of course, the skill level required may be a little higher.

The same is true for water balls. Kevin's water balls can be used to hit people, but it may take some effort to smash people's heads.

But the water balls that are activated by skills can easily smash people's skulls. The higher the level, the greater the power.

So...

"This is magic!!!"

Kevin finally understood why there were two seemingly useless skills in the skill tree.

If it was magic, it would be understandable.

Magic has magical powers that people can't understand.

Kevin vaguely guessed that these two skills were magic, and he couldn't wait to click the skill icon of [Job Transfer].

Fortunately, the [Job Transfer] skill icon only needs four skill points to light up.

When Kevin had assigned the skills but hadn't confirmed them yet, three glittering icons appeared in front of Kevin on the skill tree.

The bases of the three icons are light green, light blue and light red, the standard three primary colors.

The patterns on the three icons are also different.

The light green icon is a little man floating in the waves, with a naked upper body, like a fighter.

The light blue icon is thin, wearing a long hooded cloak, holding a long stick taller than the little man, like a staff.

The light red icon is a bearded man, with simple clothes, holding a thick book in his hand, surrounded by fish patterns.

Kevin was right, the three icons represent three professions.

The green icon is [Deep Sea Fighter], the blue icon is [Ocean Mage], and the red icon is [Sea God Messenger].

Among the three icons, only the [Ocean Mage] icon is shining now.

The skill tree of [Ocean Mage] is connected to Kevin's skill icons of [Water Sword] and [Water Ball].
