Chapter 12: Grabbed from the official website
After one hour.
The players in the nursery group finished their resurrection cooldown, and the chat group that was having heated discussions also died down.
Amid the group leader's various "You guys deserve to die" roars of frustration, 30 players logged back into the game and resurrected in the central square of Tezuka Village.
This time they still chose to explore the dark cave.
According to the guide, the method of occupying the territory node is very simple.
All you need to do is smash the node crystals corroded by the black tide energy, and the power of the Emperor's Omen will cover the domain nodes again and merge them into the Emperor's Tomb Village. At that time, the Emperor's Tomb Village will also have new functions.
After a one-hour journey, the children's group arrived at the crystal wall of the dark cave again.
I unexpectedly discovered that some players were fighting fiercely with the iron shell beetle.
Two of the players chose the bone fire form that they had never seen before. Ink flames burned all over their bodies, and they could condense a fireball and throw it at the iron shell worm with a raise of their hands.
Black Ball: This bone fire form is so cool. I love controlling fire so much. I will choose it for the next Star Vein.
Zuinai: Brothers, it seems like they can’t hold on any longer, do you want to help them?
Tiechui: Nonsense, we are here for revenge, of course we will help!
……
After a brief exchange, the 30 players in the children's group switched to monster form and joined the battle.
The scene suddenly became extremely chaotic. Bumps and collisions were inevitable in the small space, resulting in many funny scenes.
"What are you biting, bro? You're biting me. I'm the player!"
"Brother Gargoyle next door, why are you hitting my head? Can you please look at your target clearly!"
"Who threw the fireball at me? Help me put out the fire! I'm losing blood!"
"I'm sorry, brother. I can only start a fire but not put it out. I'm sorry first and go in peace."
……
In the chaos, many players were hit hard by their own people.
Several players immediately turned into black mist and entered death cooldown.
The realism of the game made the players in the battle couldn't help but complain again.
Other games generally have faction settings or safe PK settings, where you can choose whether to cause harm to other players.
But this game does not have such a setting, even teammates can cause damage.
Especially the Bone Fire's ink flame attack, which is difficult to extinguish after hitting the target and continues to burn until the target dies.
This resulted in several unlucky players not being killed by the iron bugs, but instead dying at the hands of their own people.
During this period, several iron bugs were killed, and their life energy turned into evolution points and flowed into the bodies of the players who made the last hits, allowing their levels to be increased and their physical fitness to be strengthened.
In Qi Sheng’s setting, the player kills the monster every time.
The challenger system will extract 30% of the monster's dissipated life energy and convert it into sacrificial power which enters the sacrificial power pool. The remaining 70% will be converted into life energy suitable for the players to improve their physical fitness, which is what players understand as experience points.
Qi Sheng, who was watching the game, naturally also noticed the problem of accidental injuries that the players mentioned.
But there is no solution to this problem at this stage.
After all, the monster world is just a real world in a game skin. There is no such thing as the same camp or damage immunity between players.
However, the players figured out the reason themselves, thinking that this was done to make the game more realistic. While complaining, they couldn't help but praise the strength of the game's development team.
The fierce battle in the cave lasted for more than ten minutes and ended with the annihilation of all players.
Although he was very eager to take over this domain node, Qi Sheng also knew that it was unrealistic for players to take it over with their current strength.
After guided detection and perception, it was discovered that there were 5 layers of space under the cave.
The player is currently on the first floor of the cave. The further down you go, the more iron bugs there are. The domain node crystal is on the fifth floor of the cave.
If the player wants to clear this dungeon, his strength still needs to grow.
This also gave him the idea of recruiting players again. After recruiting the second batch of players, he still had 10 points of sacrifice power.
The four original monsters that were taken in could produce 960 points of sacrificial power for him every day. Combined with the sacrificial power produced by players hunting in the monster world and collecting resources for sacrifice, the income and expenditure of Dizhong Village had reached a balance before the expansion.
He planned to recruit 50 more players and keep the remaining 5 sacrificial power for emergencies.
……
The one-hour resurrection cooldown ends.
After two waves of players logged into the game, they looked at each other at the resurrection point in the center of Dizhong Village.
Through communication, the players in the kindergarten group learned that the exploration degree of the map is shared by all players.
After they explored the Bloody Plains, the opposing group of players also saw the new sign on the map, and then entered the dark cave according to the map coordinates.
The situation was very similar to what they had experienced in the cave. They were also very excited when they saw the spiritual mine and immediately chose to buy pickaxes to mine.
But soon a large number of ironworms were alarmed by the sound of pickaxes hitting the rock wall, and a fight broke out with them.
Then they arrived and joined the melee, and were wiped out together.
At this time, Tiechui from the children's group couldn't help but look at Li Zheng and asked curiously:
"Dude, how do you get the Bonefire form used by your team?"
When asked, Li Zheng immediately explained how killing Bone Fire gave him the right to open the second Star Vein for free, and how two members of the team spent 1000 points of sacrificial power to purchase the Bone Fire Soul and embed it.
After listening to his story, the players in the children's group who chose the Eagle Demon raised their hands and cheered:
"Hahaha, I knew I made the right choice. The Eagle Demon's perception plus the Bone Fire's long-range elemental damage, this combination is invincible in the early stages of development."
"Good boy, I was forced to pick the Eagle Demon for the sake of team configuration, and now I'm told that this is the version answer. Happiness comes too suddenly."
Listening to the discussion of the other team's players, Li Zheng smiled and shook his head:
"This game has a very high degree of freedom. In the future, there will be a large number of new original monster souls for us to choose from. The appearance of bone fire is just the beginning. Each monster form has extremely high development potential. There is no need to worry about the problem that the initial form you choose is too weak. Moreover, the initial form can be changed by spending 1000 points of sacrifice power."
Zuina: By the way, do you know why there are not many players in the Novice Village? It feels so deserted.
Black Ball: Yes, I am also confused about this question. I have only met you guys so far and have not met any other players.
Mengwa: It would not be reasonable to say that other players have already walked out of the Novice Village. After all, there are only four selectable forms of primordial monsters at this stage, three of which are initial options, and the other is the Bonefire that you killed. Is it possible that no other players have killed primordial monsters?
When asked, Li Zheng was also stunned. After a brief silence, he came up with a reasonable explanation:
"Perhaps in order to solve the problem of server congestion, the Dark Land has opened up multiple sub-servers. We entered a newly opened area, and not many players were diverted in, so there are not many players in the Novice Village."
"That makes sense." Tiechui nodded in agreement.
"By the way, which platform did you purchase the game qualification?"
Li Zheng's sudden question stunned everyone in the children's group.
They dare not tell the truth about this question because their answer may affect the safety of the "welfare officer".
If the answer is not good, the welfare officer will most likely have to go in and provide food and accommodation.
"Haha, we are lucky. We got 30 game qualifications on the Dark Land official website... How about you? Where did you buy them?"
Tiechui's question made the ten players in the hardcore group feel embarrassed, and the leader Li Zheng did not expect that this question would be asked to him.
The reason why he asked the other party was that he wanted to know whether the other party had the strength to form a guild so that they, a group of brick-moving players, could join.
Facing the question, Li Zheng felt embarrassed but smiled:
"Coincidentally, we didn't use any other channels. We bought the game qualifications on the official website at 128888."
While chatting and laughing, both sides gave a reasonable explanation.
Instead of continuing the topic, they tacitly shifted the conversation to the dark cave and decided to go exploring as a group.
