Chapter 160 New Products in the Candle Keeper Store
Chapter 160 New Products in the Candle Keeper Store
Although there are still a small number of players continuing to explore, the overall progress has been temporarily halted.
However, players have not stopped discussing the contents of the two copies.
"There aren't many equipment on this map. I wonder if the so-called Tasolomo has dropped any better equipment. Has anyone found any clues or directions?"
"Brothers, I didn't go with Ina, I went to explore other places... To be honest, the map of the Forest of Bones feels a bit empty, but the art is so damn good, it looks just like the real thing."
"That's nonsense. Try the flesh and blood of the corpse trees. They taste pretty realistic. (Picking nose)"
"...It's ridiculous that the art resources were spent like they were free. This map basically allows you to go everywhere without any dead ends, just like in reality. But for a game, it's a bit empty."
"Indeed, I spent hours searching every corner, but I didn't find any treasure chests. There's no need to make it so realistic. (Depressed)"
"What about the treasure chest? You forgot about the pile of stinky clothes in the box on the Exile Island? This makes me laugh!"
"This game is obviously more realistic, but the game level and the realism level are always like fish and bear's paw, which can't be achieved at the same time. It all depends on personal preference."
"Anyway, I really like this kind of gaming method that is close to reality. It is a virtual game in itself, and this level of reality makes people more immersed. I feel a great sense of accomplishment every time I kill a monster."
"Same feeling!"
"I'm different. I like to see monsters bleed, hehe!"
“It feels like the game map is getting darker and darker, and the immersion level… this will drive away a lot of players.”
"That's true. I've seen several newbies quit the game."
"Let them leave. There aren't many vacancies anyway. Kick out the ones who don't do shit and make room for new ones in the forum."
"Don't worry, the officials are not panicking, why should you panic? Besides, this is just an internal test."
"makes sense……"
Players were chatting casually in the chat channel, and the atmosphere was pretty good.
And the players' discussion on the so-called degree of reality...
Rogge could only say, good job of imagination!
As we all know, as long as you have the framework of the game, players will be able to come up with a reasonable explanation for any situation they encounter.
This is what is meant by - after the server is opened, there will be players who will debate for me!
Rogge still likes to watch the chat channel of this world.
In addition to watching these players discuss dungeons and backgrounds with each other, you can also see many people telling jokes or simply competing passionately, which is very entertaining.
In addition to Rogge, there is another group that is often active in the chat channel.
That's naturally the fishermen.
"These guys are really passionate..." Lao Yan, who was sitting next to Brother Yu, couldn't help but smile as he looked at the chat channel, with a nostalgic look on his face: "This reminds me of the time when we played games all night long and read guides online all day long. It wasn't tiring at all, haha."
Hearing this, Brother Yu couldn't help but smile and said jokingly, "Aren't you playing all night now?"
"..."Old Yan, it seems... that's really the truth!
……
As the saying goes, there are all kinds of birds in a big forest.
As the player group continues to expand, all kinds of weird players naturally appear.
So, recently, the players of Zhuxin Island suddenly discovered a very strange player.
A player with the ID "Iron Pestle" would go online at a fixed time and place every day during the day, and then silently start his day's struggle with the fishman coach.
This made many players look sideways.
A player who had just returned from the Exile Island couldn't help but walk up and start a conversation when he saw this.
"Dude, you're almost level 20, why don't you go to the Exile Island to level up?"
He had seen this Tiechu brother when he first entered the game, and he was still a newbie at that time.
Now he has followed the guide, obtained the Resentful Ghost Giant, passed several dungeons, and updated his equipment.
He originally thought that this Iron Pestle guy would go to the dungeon, or at the very least go to the prison on the Exile Island to level up, but he didn't expect that this Iron Pestle guy was actually here flirting with the Murloc Coach...
"Exile Island?" After hearing his words, Tiechu skillfully and neatly killed a murloc, then scratched his head: "I've been there, but I couldn't beat the garrison captain, so I thought I'd level up for a while before going there. This murloc is easier to kill."
"..." The player couldn't help but laugh: "Brother, are you going to be the Sword God of Shilipo?"
"Listen to my advice, brother. Go to a map and kill the giant monster, then go to the prison to level up. If you keep fighting the murloc coach like this, even if you kill all its fish skins, you won't be able to catch up with others in leveling speed."
"Look, even my level is almost catching up with yours."
"Even if you want to follow the brush style, you have to find the right way and method."
Hear his advice.
Tiechu smiled and scratched his head, as if thinking about something.
What this player said does make sense. It is indeed too inefficient to keep spawning murlocs.
Maybe it's time to change places?
……
The little leeks are growing stronger every day.
Naturally, the "taxes" collected by Rogge were increasing.
Even after a while, we will be able to collect enough wax to upgrade the quality of the spirit candle next time.
But the problem is that if you want to upgrade the quality of the spirit candle again, you have to find the important "Broken Core".
Therefore, there is not much meaning for Rogge to save wax oil now.
So he used part of the wax oil to build Lingzhu buildings on each of the anchored islands, and upgraded them to make it easier for players to use. This would also prevent these players from always coming to Zhuxin Island to squeeze in with the crowds. Anyway, the functions of the Lingzhu buildings could be shared.
Another point is naturally to recruit new players.
The more leeks there are, the faster the exploration progress will naturally be.
After all, in the chaotic area of the Dark Border, it is impossible for every area to have clues worth paying attention to, and many areas are useless.
In the words of young players, it means "enriching the game background."
The last and most important point is to make equipment and various special items.
When the quality of the spirit candle was still relatively low, Rogge was unable to produce high-quality equipment.
But now that the quality of the spirit candle has been raised, Rogge will naturally be able to make more equipment.
This is a great way to produce wax oil!
Equipment made with 500 wax oil can be sold at a high price of 5000 wax oil by painting some details, adding some effects, and making it more handsome. There will always be players who like beautiful clothes and will buy them.
Of course, Rogge will also make some more practical equipment, but the price will not be low.
With the high price of equipment, Rogge will have the confidence to order these players around like slaves.
Think about it, if a player completes a quest with great difficulty, and then you give him a piece of equipment that only costs 50 wax oil in the store, will he be happy?
No, he would only call the Candle Keeper a stupid NPC.
But if your equipment is sold for 5000 wax in the store, it will be a different story.
Even if the equipment is just flashy, players will only feel depressed instead of angry.
so.
The reason why the equipment in the Candlekeeper's Shop is so expensive is because Rogge wants to make money and squeeze the players' blood?
It's one-sided, the idea is one-sided.
Small, the layout is small.
The high price is an affirmation of the players’ efforts and a recognition of the players!
So, when I think of the players' touched expressions after seeing the various high-priced equipment in the Candle Keeper's shop...
Roger smiled with relief.
In addition, there is the category of special items.
In this regard, Rogge was merciful and lowered the price again and again.
The reason for this is closely related to the players themselves.
Since they are essentially little wax figures molded from spiritual candles, although they have the power of immortality, they are lacking in attributes and other aspects.
For example, making special items.
[Scalding wax clots] [Type: Special item]
[Effect: After use, it will isolate the lower life fire from approaching for a period of time. ]
[Description: The clots made by the candle keeper are beautiful, elegant and practical. ]
Items like this.
Rogge's inspiration came from the Mage Burton, a high-level fire-burner in the Burning Land who often used the [Fire Core] when exploring.
That’s right, as a native of this world, although you can’t be resurrected infinitely like Zhu Ling, you still have to learn and comprehend the underlying logic to learn skills.
But this naturally also makes the indigenous people have their own unique features... such as making items with special powers.
Players are certainly growing faster, but they are like products on an assembly line. It's not bad for them to use the power of spirit candles roughly to fight monsters, but it is naturally impossible for them to make achievements in some detailed directions.
This includes creating your own skills and crafting special items.
Of course, the self-created skills mentioned here refer to those skills that can be written into the Lingzhu skill book.
The windmill that Mangzi Ge often uses is at most a rough fighting technique.
Closer to home.
It is normal that players cannot do anything in this regard. Anyway, Rogue does not need them to help him study. They only need to consider exploration and fighting and be good cannon fodder.
As for special items, Rogge only needs to make a sample at the beginning, and then the spiritual candles can be mass-produced, which is very convenient.
In order to expand players' means and improve their combat effectiveness, the price naturally cannot be raised too high.
……
【Update completed without downtime. 】
[The items sold in the Candle Keeper's Shop have been updated and moved to the Spirit Candle, and can be purchased at any time. ]
"Hey, the candle guy's shop has been updated again?"
"Moved to Lingzhu? That's good, so I don't have to queue up every time I want to see Nonia's wife. Seeing a group of big men leave my wife contentedly, I feel so heartbroken that I can't breathe..."
"No, buddy?"
"I heard that this time you can buy all kinds of useful special items?"
"Oh, what's so good about this crappy store? The things inside are just mediocre and makeshift. If you really want to find good equipment, you have to kill monsters."
"That's not true. The items sold in the Candle Keeper's Shop are ordinary, but they are expensive!"
"Hmm? I remember that there is a threshold for entering this candle keeper shop? It seems that you need to have a high level of favorability with the NPC who watches the candles?"
"Brother, it has been updated."
"Some people used to resell items in the Candlekeeper's shop after they qualified, and then the threshold became lower after a wave of non-stop updates. However, those who qualified before that were compensated."
"Good fellow, I feel like this guy watching the candles can't stand seeing players taking advantage of him."
"! Brother! Don't say that. You have to respectfully call yourself the Candle Keeper in the game! Otherwise, the drop rate and the chance of winning will be lower!"
"Tsk, you're so superstitious about metaphysics just for playing a game? I'm not afraid of it."
Players discussing.
They also came to the spirit candle in twos and threes and began to check its various functions.
At this time, the functions of the spirit candle have become more numerous and richer.
[Restore Status][Replenish Wax Blocks][Ignite the Fire of War][Reshape the Body][Reset the World][Enter the Dungeon][Teleport][Shop]
The most commonly used function by players now is teleportation.
After clicking on the store option, two categories appeared in front of the players.
【Weaponry】
【Special items】
Some players were the first to click on the weapon and equipment option above.
Then the pupils shrank and the reactions varied.
"Oh my god, so fucking handsome!"
"Fuck, so good!"
That’s right, the weapons and equipment in the Candlekeeper’s shop mainly highlight two characteristics: cool and expensive.
For example, the most eye-catching one...
[Blazing Pioneer Armor (Collection)]
[Type: Breastplate]
[Effect: Provides moderate defense and gives a small burning effect to the enemy when attacked. ]
[Explanation: The armor that burns like a fiery spirit of exploration is a symbol of pioneering.]
The names of these equipment were all thought out by Roger after much thought.
Naturally, it has nothing to do with the name collection post in the forum.
Needless to say, the appearance was something that Rogge had spent a long time surfing the Internet and had the guidance of Master Burton before he made it.
Even these picky players can't find any faults.
"This armor has a dim glow..."
"Yeah, it's not as colorful as in some games. This is really cool..."
Some players were amazed and envious.
However, once they saw the price below, their desire to shop was instantly extinguished.
[Price: 8500 wax oil]
[Number remaining: 1]
Eight thousand five?
Is there still a purchase limit?
How much wax oil does it take for our little wax figures to be resurrected once? How many little wax figures would that be?
Damn, you really dare to sell it!
Even if there is wax, the price shouldn't be this high. This store must be crazy.
I really can't afford it even if I sell them...
“I wouldn’t even buy a dog.” Someone said sourly.
If you can't eat grapes, then you can only say that the grapes are sour.
Then, in their eyes, the remaining number changed from "1" to "0".
"Wow, this equipment is pretty cool."
In full view of everyone, the newly-launched Black Mountain Demon put on the Blazing Pioneer Armor.
After taking two steps and realizing that the weight slowed his movements, he shook his head and put it into the inventory.
"It's too heavy to use."
The Black Mountain Demon smacked his lips, then began to look at other equipment.
"..."
The atmosphere was silent for a while.
That's a piece of knight equipment!
Of course you can’t fucking wear it!
"Doesn't this game have a recharge channel?" someone couldn't help but laugh.
"The game has no recharge channel, but people do have recharge channels." A player said sadly.
"Fuck! Damn it!"
"It must be a dog!"
"I'm going to fight you damn rich people!"
Some players' eyes turned red.
Please give me a monthly ticket!
