I Become An NPC That Can Do Infinite Job Changes - Chapter 5

Translator: Dragon Boat Translation Editor: Dragon Boat Translation

After the resources met the requirements to build the barracks, Avril immediately began to build it through the game system.

The five farmers put all their efforts into finishing the construction of the barracks while the remaining few continued to gather basic materials.

Time slowly passed, and it took several hours to finish the barracks.

The rudimentary barracks stood at the edge of the small courtyard of the territory. This type of barracks was the lowest-level one. Its sole function was to make shifting into the job ‘Militia’ possible. On the other hand, a higher-level barracks could train and upgrade soldiers and had several other uses.

Su Mu looked at the beautiful Lord in front of him and asked the question that he was most concerned about.

“What are the requirements for farmers to change their job to ‘Militia’?”

“The barracks are already built. You only need two units of iron to change your job to ‘Militia’ without problems,” Avril said happily. She looked at Su Mu as if she was even more anxious than him to shift into a different job as she urged him.

“Su Mu, hurry up and go in. I also want to see how a farmer turns into a militiaman!”

“Alright.”

Su Mu nodded heavily. He suppressed his excitement and walked to the front of the barracks.

Before entering, Su Mu turned his head to look at Avril. This woman had given him the most important turning point in his life.

Su Mu turned his head and stepped into it.

Then…

He felt the sudden descent of an incomparably majestic consciousness. It was akin to a pair of cold eyes scanning him.

The game’s system descended!

“Job advancement requirements are met. Job advancement commences.”

As the world spun, a heat current that was several times stronger rose from his body and flowed into his limbs and bones. Su Mu could feel that his body was being rapidly strengthened.

When a moment had passed, it felt as though a century had gone by. The heat current disappeared, and Su Mu’s body had undergone a major change.

His originally scrawny body had grown strong, and the clothes on his body were also modified. The previously tattered coarse cloth had been replaced by leather armor, and his empty hands now had a slightly worn-out long knife.

“Is this a militiaman…”

Upon noticing that his body was several times stronger, Su Mu mindfully opened his attribute panel.

[Name: Su Mu]

[Identity: Subject of Chang’an Village]

[Occupation: Militia]

[Level: 5]

[Experience: 30/100]

[Attributes: Spirit 8, Martial Strength 10, Intelligence 8, Stamina 12]

[Skills: Basic Blade Skills (Level 1)]

[Talent: Heaven Rewards Diligence]

[Equipment: Worn-Out Long Knife]

…

Looking at his attribute panel, Su Mu’s eyes had a glint in them.

After becoming a militiaman, there was an additional attribute panel. His ‘Martial Strength’ directly increased to 10 points, which was equivalent to three times the strength of an ordinary person.

Moreover, there was an additional ‘Basic Blade Skills’.

[Basic Blade Skills: Passive Skill Level 1]

[Description: Basic Blade Skill improves your usage and comprehension of blade skills. It increases the attack power of knife-type weapons by 1%.]

This was expected of a combat profession.

Even though it was just the most basic militia unit, the attributes had increased by a large margin. To Su Mu, this was a true transformation!

Following his job change, even if he faced four to five farmers at the same time, he could still kill them without receiving any injuries. He really had the power to go off.

“I’ve finally taken the first step!”

Su Mu clenched his fists. He was filled with confidence for the future.

This is only his first job change. When he reaches Level 10, he can undergo a second job change. From the job ‘Militia’, Su Mu can switch to ‘Basic Soldier’.

After Level 15, he could undergo a third job change. This time, he could choose ‘Professional Soldier’.

Beyond Level 20, he could undergo a fourth job change and shift his unit to ‘Elite Soldier’.

…

“Next, I need to raise my level and prepare for the next job change.”

After letting out a long sigh, Su Mu walked out of the barracks.

When Avril, who had been waiting quietly outside, saw Su Mu’s strong figure walking out, she secretly heaved a sigh of relief and spoke with an apparent surprise on her face.

“Did you succeed?”

For Avril, this job change was the first step in nurturing her subjects. She couldn’t help but feel a little anxious and nervous. At this moment, seeing Su Mu’s change made her extremely happy.

“Yes, I succeeded!”

Avril immediately opened Su Mu’s attribute panel.

Word by word, she read every message on the panel even more carefully than Su Mu.

Seeing that Su Mu’s level had risen to Level 5 in just a few hours, Avril’s eyes suddenly lit up.

“Oh my god, I was right! Su Mu is definitely a special NPC. His aptitude is so remarkable.”

Avril then spent the night reading a lot of posts.

One of them discussed the aptitude of the subjects. The highest was SSS-grade. However, talents with this kind of aptitude were very rare. Most of the people only received C-grade or B-grade.

Compared to Su Mu’s improvement, it was simply outrageous.

At the same time, Avril was pleasantly surprised to find that Su Mu’s favorability towards her had increased from 10 points to 15 points!

The increase in favorability was even more surprising than Su Mu’s successful advancement.

Noticing that Avril was checking his information, Su Mu did not say anything. She was originally the Lord of this side, and she basically trusted and nurtured him unconditionally. Su Mu would not reject this.

Currently, he was highly satisfied with Avril as a Lord. In the far future, his growth and advancement would depend on this Lord Player.

Besides, Su Mu felt that there was nothing to hide about his attributes.

The faster he grew, the more Avril would value him, and the more willing she would be to devote more resources to nurture him.

‘Why not accept it?’

There wasn’t even a need for Su Mu to say anything more. Avril immediately expressed her stance. “The job change from ‘Militia’ to ‘Basic Soldier’ requires your level to reach Level 10. In addition, you will also need a Level 2 barracks and 10 units of iron. You only need to relax and level up. Within two days, I will definitely develop our village to the point where you can change your job!”

“Alright.”

After staring at Avril for a while, Su Mu smiled.

Once again…

He felt that choosing to join Chang’an village was the right decision.

If it was someone else, even if they knew that he was a hidden special NPC, they probably wouldn’t have taken out too many resources to nurture him. It was even more impossible for them to be like Avril. After all, even the development of the village revolved around Su Mu!

Level 2 barracks required the territory to be upgraded to Level 2.

To upgrade the territory, not only did they need a certain number of people, but they also needed basic structures such as houses, forging shops, sewing shops, granaries, and so on.

Whether it was building these basic structures or recruiting farmers, they all required a lot of resources.

Realizing this, Avril finally had the positive attitude that a Lord should possess. She began to focus on gathering resources and the development of the village.

Su Mu continued to move freely!

Avril felt that with the wisdom and ability Su Mu had shown, it was better to let him move freely than assign tasks to him.

She asked the four farmers in the territory to start building new houses, and then, she assigned four people to collect basic materials.

When Avril commanded the farmers to start developing the village, Su Mu also left the safe area around Chang’an Village and entered the back mountain of the territory.

From being a farmer to becoming a militiaman, Su Mu could no longer gain experience by cutting down trees and collecting stones.

His current strength had changed a lot. Since ‘Militia’ was a combat profession, fighting monsters was the right way for him to gain experience.

The low-level beasts near the novice territory were the best source of experience for him..
