Chapter 198: Draw for a Dungeon, a Test of Acting Skills
[Challenger Tip: Congratulations to the player for completing the hidden dungeon mission "Dead Space". The mission ended midway... The settlement reward is: 112392 points of sacrifice power. ]
"Hahaha, this wave of profits is huge. It's a pity that Lao Gou and the others died early, otherwise I would have become an Echoer and returned to the monster world."
"As expected of you, you are the Lord of Welfare. You gave me a strengthening reward of 11 sacrifice power in just five trials. This is too fast to earn money."
"Pay attention to the time. It seems that three months have passed in the illusion woven by the Lord of Welfare, but in fact, it has been less than three days in the monster world. This illusion technology is really amazing."
"After all, illusions are where the Welfare Lord makes his living. Last time, I heard an explorer say that he seemed to have been in the illusion for a long time, but it took only a few seconds for him to wake up after purification. This is obviously a way of applying the rules of bliss."
"This benefit was originally intended for elite warriors, but we snatched it away. I think the Welfare Lord is furious now."
……
Listening to the chat of the veterans in the guild chat channel, a smile appeared on Qi Sheng's lips.
This time, when the player accidentally discovered the Paradise Node in the Catacombs World, the guide also followed the network cable to investigate the current situation of the Lord of Paradise.
As a result, the Dead Space program was discovered.
After learning the details of the plan, Qi Sheng thought of the vast wealth of resources in the inventory of the Lord of Paradise.
So the idea of "sneaking into Chencang" came into being.
He issued a hidden mission to the veteran members who discovered the Paradise Node.
They will then be sent from the Paradise Palace to the Death Space to participate in the brutal Gu competition as Paradise players.
In order to prevent the Lord of Bliss from discovering any abnormalities, he also made changes to the situation of the Veteran Corps.
In the challenger prompts received by the Veteran Corps, as long as they confirm to participate in the hidden mission, all enhanced abilities will be taken back and they will participate in the hidden mission process as ordinary people.
If the Veterans had participated in the Death Space competition at their peak, they wouldn't have had to put in so much effort and could have easily become Echoes.
But it is also clearly stated in the prompt.
After the mission is completed, all sealed powers will be released, and all enhancements in the death space will be converted into sacrificial power.
In other words, the veterans all became Elysium players as ordinary people and did not receive any special treatment.
As for how to participate, it is also very simple.
He asked Yan Ming to use the power of space to replace several ordinary creatures who were supposed to be captured and taken to the Paradise Space, and instead have 27 members of the Veteran Corps participate.
Then a dramatic scene occurred.
The Veteran Corps actually topped the list of the 12th Dead Space Team in this round of testing.
Originally, after the final trial was completed, the Veteran Corps would become the Echoers in the eyes of the Lord of Bliss.
Next, you will be sent to the monster world by the Lord of Bliss to participate in the competition for resources in various regions.
During this period, you will definitely enjoy the various welfare enhancements supported by the Lord of Bliss.
But the Veterans Corps is a whole.
The massive deaths of their teammates during the ultimate test caused them to give up the idea of continuing to fight and concede victory.
This is also the reason why Lin Xia, the bliss warrior in the death space, was able to complete the ultimate trial.
That is why Li Tie said:
"Maybe we'll have a chance to meet again."
After the veterans returned, Qi Sheng returned all the sealed abilities.
He took 30% of the reward and made a huge profit from the Lord of Paradise.
After all, I gave the Lord of Bliss a big gift package during the Chinese New Year, so it's normal to ask for a gift in return.
Bliss is not given to him, he takes it for himself.
The average level of the members of the Youlu Council who were sent in a package last time was over 100, allowing the Lord of Bliss to gain the benefits of continuous output.
According to the guidance feedback, the Lord of Bliss was obviously confused at the time.
Unexpectedly, dozens of powerful elemental lives suddenly descended upon the entertainment city he opened without any warning.
But the Lord of Bliss had no intention of giving up the resources that were given for free.
It didn't even need to take action, the bliss scene had already dragged the members of the Dark Law Council into the abyss of desire and began to continuously produce the power of bliss.
This process will last approximately three months until the members of the Yulu Council die.
The income from the output is much higher than what the veteran group can get.
And the gains of the Veteran Corps are nothing to the Lord of Bliss.
After all, the profits of monster casinos all over the world are very high, and huge amounts of resources are brought in every minute and every second.
But in Qi Sheng's eyes, it was a considerable profit.
This is especially true for members of the veterans' corps.
The old dog who earned the most received 13 yuan in sacrifice power, which can be said to be a sudden wealth.
After this round of testing, Qi Sheng felt that he had found a new path for players to grow.
That is to be sent to the death space created by the Lord of Welfare to gain experience.
Not only can you get free resources, but you can also hone your skills, killing two birds with one stone.
The biggest shortcoming of players is that their combat awareness is quite different from that of real fighters.
Dead Space is the ideal training ground.
He does not need to spend money on resources to build the scene, and can also earn enhancement points from training, which can be converted into sacrifice power income at the end.
More importantly, the training in the scenarios is conducted as ordinary people.
The players have no external support at the beginning, and their strength is even not as good as those real extreme players who fight to the death.
If you want to get more points, you have to work hard to grow.
Otherwise, it would be difficult to survive a round of death trial.
With the idea in mind, Qi Sheng immediately contacted Yan Ming and asked him to help create a hidden space line connecting to the death space.
On this basis, he still has a problem to solve.
It is not difficult to open a transmission line connecting to the Death Space, but the players being transmitted must be disguised each time to replace the Elysium players who should have been teleported into the Death Space.
He had to turn this setup into a stable operating mode and connect it to the Challenger system.
From now on, you don't need to take any active action, just teleport into the dead space and automatically replace a recruited player.
Secondly, how to control the transmission volume is a problem.
Massive teleportation, all the bliss players trained by the Lord of Bliss became his own players.
That would be fun.
For example, create a Death Space dungeon node in Dizhong Village.
As long as a copy appears, players will definitely sign up in large numbers.
When the Lord of Welfare finds out, he will probably faint from crying.
Imagine this scene.
One day in the future, the Lord of Paradise will walk out of the Paradise Space and decide to show his strength to compete with the powerful tribes.
With a wave of his hand, countless beams of light spread behind him and the Paradise players were summoned.
As a result, most, or even all, of these players were his players. The scene was... too cruel.
It's just that there's no problem.
The problem is that when the player dies, he will eventually return to the space of Tezuka Village.
Occasionally, players would be lost, but the Lord of Bliss would choose to move forward with the plan even if he could not find the cause.
But if it happens frequently, it will be a big problem.
The Lord of Bliss’s choice must be that since he cannot find the cause, he should simply give up looking for it and completely abolish the plan.
So you have to be careful when taking advantage of others.
It cannot be exploited without restraint, nor can it affect the normal progress of the Death Space Project.
Qi Sheng fell into deep thought on how to solve this problem.
It is possible to set up a space teleportation array in Dizhong Village, but the number of players participating must be limited.
The best way is obviously to distribute the limited qualifications to the strongest top players.
They can create more enhanced benefits in the dead space, and he can also collect a considerable amount of tax from them when he returns after each copy experience.
But this approach has drawbacks.
For example, every time a veteran regiment is involved, it is easy for them to be ranked high on the list due to their combat experience.
The same is true for other top players.
The Lord of Welfare must be furious with the constant loss of top players.
Therefore, the best way is to combine the ratio of top players and ordinary players, so that the strength of the lost Paradise players can be presented to the Lord of Paradise in a random way.
In this way, it will think that there is a problem with the structure of the dead space, just like the random loss in the previous space tunnel, and there is some undiscovered uncertainty.
Given the vigilance of the Lord of Paradise, it would be strange if he didn't become suspicious given the steady loss of top Paradise players.
Even this random method may make the Lord of Bliss suspicious.
But at least the randomness won't shake the core of Dead Space.
As long as the core issues are not wrong, the Lord of Bliss will continue to move forward with the plan for Dead Space.
After much deliberation, Qi Sheng decided to distribute the qualifications by drawing lots to increase randomness.
Allow both capable players and ordinary players to rely on luck to draw the qualification for the Death Space.
As for the number of places to be distributed, he decided to temporarily set the quota at 100 per day.
This number of infiltrating players is well within the tolerance of the Dead Space plan.
Although 100 qualifications are just a drop in the bucket compared to the current total number of players.
But this is only the fourth round of testing for the "Elysium Players Legion".
The scale has not yet been expanded.
When the Lord of Bliss expands the recruitment scale and builds more Death Spaces, he will also increase the number of Death Space copy qualifications issued simultaneously.
The specific amount to be distributed will depend on the plan of the Lord of Bliss.
With the idea in mind, Qi Sheng immediately began to develop a detailed planning process.
Let Yan Ming, who has the rules of space, and Chaowei, who can strip away the player's abilities, be responsible for the creation of this aspect of the setting. At 3 pm that day, a full-channel prompt sounded in the player's mind:
[Challenger Tips (All Channels): New functional building added to the Dizhong Village space: Instance Transmission Area. ]
Introduction to the dungeon transfer area: Players can go to specific dungeon scenes through the dungeon transfer area.
The open copy this time: Dead Space.
Introduction to Dead Space: A fantasy dungeon constructed by the Lord of Bliss. The speed of time in the fantasy dungeon is different from that in the outside world. Players participate in the tasks issued by the Lord of Bliss as Bliss players. Each time you complete a built-in fantasy dungeon, you can get Bliss points. Bliss points can be used to enhance physical fitness and other abilities, and increase the probability of completing the next round of built-in fantasy tasks. After the dungeon is completed, the player will be sent back to the Imperial Village to enter the resurrection cooling, and the points and enhancements obtained will be returned to the player in the form of sacrifice power.
Dungeon Tip 1: After the player enters the Death Space Dungeon, Star Veins, Body Forging, and all other enhancements cannot be used in the Death Space. The player must participate in the Death Trial with normal attribute values. Enhancement is limited to using Bliss Points at the Enhancement Stele.
Copy Tip 2: This copy is open for testing. 100 Dead Space copy qualifications will be issued every day. Players can draw through the newly added "Copy Qualification (cannot be traded)" in the function panel. The qualifications will be reset from 0-1 o'clock every day. Players can sign up during this period. The qualification distribution list will be determined at 1 o'clock. All players who win the lottery will receive: Copy Key.
Copy Tip 3: If a player dies in the first round of tasks in the Dead Space copy, he will not receive any rewards. Each reward will be distributed based on task completion, combat performance, teamwork, and other dimensions.
Dungeon Tip 4: Players cannot reveal any player information in the Death Space scene. During the dungeon, there will be a perception detection by the Lord of Bliss (random). If it is discovered that you are not a Bliss player, you will be forcibly killed. Players who obtain the dungeon key need to play their role well.
……
As the update notification was released, the Tezuka Village shook.
A circle of light blue light suddenly exploded in the empty space to the west.
Like a stone dropped into a calm lake, the halo quickly spread out, outlining a circular outline with a diameter of over 100 meters on the ground.
Countless glowing characters emerged from the void, written quickly by invisible hands and embedded in the ground one by one.
It moved on the ground like a living thing, quickly arranging itself along complex trajectories. Golden light gushed out from the runes and intertwined into a web in the air.
At this moment, the golden light released by the rune suddenly shrank and condensed into an elliptical portal with blue arcs jumping around the edges.
The space inside the portal rotates like a whirlpool.
Finally, a circle of light blue light rose from the bottom of the portal, surrounding the dungeon portal like a guard.
The new functional building "Dungeon Teleport Point" is officially generated.
However, it is not open for use at this stage, and players can only pass through the portal even if they enter it.
Only players who obtain the "copy key" through drawing lots will be sent to the death space to participate in the brutal competition.
But the "cruel" here refers to the extreme players.
For genuine players who possess immortal bodies, it is nothing more than a wonderful journey, or a training journey.
In the future, Qi Sheng does not plan to transfer players in the form of a team like the Veterans Corps did, allowing players to randomly combine with Paradise players to participate in dungeons together.
How much copy profit is obtained depends entirely on the player's specific performance in the Dead Space scene.
But based on his judgment of the overall quality of the players, he was afraid that most of them would not be able to pass the first three death trials.
But as long as you can pass the first level of the death trial, you will get a considerable reward.
Similar to the Ancient God Arena, how much reward you get depends on your strength.
The launch of the new function immediately sparked heated discussions among players on the forum.
The Sleepy Gang: It’s so funny, the lottery pool might only contain the words “Thank you for participating”, with hundreds of thousands of players fighting for 100 copy keys. I suggest the game be renamed “African Simulator”.
Lin Hai: I thought of my brother who is still trying to get the qualification outside. The last time he participated in the New Year event, all the red envelopes he got were blessings. Not to mention the qualification for the game, he didn’t even get a red envelope with 1 point of sacrifice power. After grabbing dozens of red envelopes, his mentality exploded. Last time he complained to me on the phone, he kept "blessing" the Eclipse Clan, saying that he had worked in vain for so long, which made me laugh to death.
Ding Ding Ding i: The Eclipse Clan's stinginess is really puzzling. They are so stingy with game qualifications, but they are also so stingy with the resources in the game. Why can't they change the resources with one click and give everyone one million sacrificial powers to have fun? I think one million sacrificial powers per person is not a lot. In the later stage, it is estimated that one million sacrificial powers are only enough to open a star vein slot. I think 100 million sacrificial powers can be used up quickly.
Moon under the Autumn Wind: After my rigorous calculations, I have proven that the probability of grabbing the key is lower than the probability of the cafeteria aunt not shaking her hands (draft paper photo.jpg)
Mingzhu Tiannan: Wow, life is getting more and more interesting. I wait for the bus to Caiwu Coast early every day. Now there are still 100 copy qualifications to grab in the early morning. The chance to get rich is getting closer. It is said that 30 qualifications were issued in the last round, and now there are probably more than 50 players. More than 50 players are competing for 100 copy keys. Do you think this is a setting that only humans can come up with? Oh, this is a game developed by the creatures in the upper realm (teeth gnashing.jpg).
The Dark Land is Really Fun: I don’t care about anything else, I just want to ask a question, when will the name change card be online, because the wild team formed with this name has been ridiculed several times (crying.jpg).
……
Qi Sheng simply ignored the players' complaints on the forum.
He wanted to issue unlimited qualifications at one time, so that players could go to the Death Space anytime and anywhere to participate in the Gu Competition and obtain rewards.
But the problem is that the Lord of Bliss won’t allow it.
During the fourth round of player mode testing, the Lord of Bliss only recruited tens of thousands of Bliss players every day.
There is no problem with occupying 1% of the proportion.
But if hundreds of thousands of players came in at once, the Lord of Paradise would probably think it was a ghost.
The most important thing is that these hundreds of thousands of Paradise players all died and ran away with their money.
If the copy qualifications were to be distributed unlimitedly, the Lord of Paradise would probably have to modify the settings overnight, and the Death Space Project would have been cancelled the next day.
Qi Sheng naturally understood that you cannot dig up the leeks by the roots.
As for the players' ideas, they are not taken into consideration.
Early next morning.
The copy qualifications have begun to be issued.
Players opened the function panel one after another and clicked on "Copy Qualification" at the bottom among the numerous function options.
The interface for copy qualification is very simple, with only one red trick bag.
After the player clicks, a prompt will pop up:
[Challenger Tip: You have successfully participated in the dungeon qualification draw. The winners will be announced after 59 minutes and 59 seconds (1 am). The number of dungeon qualifications issued this time: 100. ]
The distribution time is chosen at this point to match the approximate time of Dead Space recruitment.
Once players enter Dead Space, they will be matched.
Only when the Lord of Bliss recruits Bliss players will they be able to enter after being adapted.
There may be a matching duration.
But it generally doesn't take too long, the average time is about 20 seconds.
At this time, countless players shouted in the world chat channel:
"I am banging the electronic wooden fish like crazy, please give me some merits, Guan Erye, the Bodhisattva of Star Network, Buddha, Jesus, and the Emperor Zhao God, I am willing to exchange my roommate's ten years of singleness for winning the lottery."
"I sacrificed my teammates' romantic luck for ten years, just to get the qualification. The old ancestor of Star Network blessed me and I won the lottery. I watched the live broadcast of the old soldiers group. The death space seems to be quite interesting!"
"I definitely won't be able to win the dungeon. Please slap me in the face, StarNet. Please slap me in the face and prove that I'm wrong."
"The last time I was this pious was when I was drawing for the Monster World qualification. Now I just hope that I can be lucky enough to do it again!"
"Everyone, stop rushing. The qualification this time is actually a game virus. I promise that what I say is the truth. Everyone, please don't click. Just trust me this time."
The chat channel became particularly lively during this period.
It was one o'clock in the morning, the qualifications were distributed, and the list of winning players was listed in the "Copy Qualification" interface list.
Rounds of condemnation immediately broke out in the world chat channel, wishing that this group of players would not be able to pass the first round of death trial.
Players who have obtained the qualifications will automatically have a purple copy key added to their backpack.
They rushed to the Dizhong Village space from different regions.
Players who are far away generally choose the easiest and simplest way to teleport back, but the teleportation time is a bit long and they need to wait for an hour on the forum.
Soon, the first group of players arrived at the dungeon teleportation point of Dizhong Village.
After they passed through the copy portal, the copy key in the backpack automatically disappeared and was sent to the death space scene by the space node.
The challenger's reminder also sounded in his mind, and the player's star veins, soul, body forging, and other functions were all sealed.
What appeared before their eyes was a dream-like patchwork scene.
There are many recruited internal test players in the square, setting up stalls to sell various equipment and props obtained from the Death Trial, and earning Bliss Points that can be used for strengthening through transactions.
After arriving in the death space, the players were extremely calm.
Although the main battlefield is the monster world, players generally have experience in cross-space combat.
From the Ancient God Arena, the Doomsday World, the Shuyan Space... to the newly launched Cave World, everyone is familiar with independent spaces.
But even though they were calm inside, fear was revealed on their faces.
They all transformed themselves into acting talents and started their own performances.
This update makes it clear that the Lord of Bliss may observe the recruited Bliss players.
So acting skills are very important in the copy.
The copy qualification is extremely precious. You may be lucky enough to get it this time, but you don’t know when the next time will be.
So all they think about is that they must maximize the value of the copy experience.
At least you have to pass a few rounds of death trials and make some money before you leave.
Before that, you must never reveal what makes you different.
The video of the Veterans participating in the Death Trial has topped the forum's popularity list. Players who enter the Death Space have watched the relevant videos in advance and know how they should participate in it.
Soon, they arrived in front of the stone tablet according to the prompts in their minds.
Then he was teleported to the first round of death trial scene.
The players and tourists who were watching the live broadcast were immediately burst into laughter by the subsequent performance of this group of dramatic players.
In the fantasy world of the Death Forest.
A player squatted on the ground with his head in his hands, buried his head in his knees, grasped his hair tightly with both hands, and whimpered:
"I want to go home, I want to go home, I don't want to participate in the death trial."
In a dark and desperate fantasy.
A player had a dull expression and trembling lips:
"What should we do? Are we going to die? I'm really scared."
In the horror castle fantasy.
A certain player curled up in the corner of the dimly lit, shabby room, hugging his body tightly with his arms. He was shaking like a sieve, his teeth were clattering, and his voice was filled with tears:
"This...what the hell is this place? I don't want to die here. Can someone save me?"
In the illusion of alienated tunnel.
In a corner of the dark passage, the player took several steps back, trembling, muttering:
"It's over, it's over. We definitely can't get out. I'm afraid we'll die here."
……
The addition of players caused the already desperate players in different fantasy scenes to collapse mentally.
Driven by their emotions, sadness spread and crying sounded one after another.
When the player discovered that the other players participating in the trial were crying louder than him, he decisively increased the volume of his crying, trying to blend into the environment and make himself appear more normal.
