Chapter 224: 9th Generation Precognition, Fierce Newbies
Chapter 224: The Ninth Generation of Precognition, the Rookie is Fierce (Thanks to the leader of the Romance in the Armored Car for the reward)
The original altar.
Qi Sheng's consciousness followed the guidance and descended into the "Senluo Forest" area of the Pale Continent.
Looking down at the earth from a perceptual perspective, what appears in our minds is a world made up of plants.
To the north of the area, huge vines are coiled on the ground like a blue dragon, and their branches and leaves are interwoven into an endless green sky, blocking out the sun.
To the south of the area, giant trees that reach into the sky stand on the ground like natural towers, with glowing lines all over their trunks and life energy flowing inside.
To the east, fluorescent flowers sway in the breeze, and the crystals spewing from the flower cores float in the air, illuminating the darkness in the forest.
Blade-like sharp sky-splitting flowers, bushes covered with purple poisonous thorns, poisonous mushrooms, iron-eating tree monsters... This is a kingdom made up of plant life.
In the midst of vitality, countless green plants grow wildly, and the glittering and translucent light spots emitted from their surfaces decorate the earth under the night sky like a dream.
The air here is filled with rich life particles, and it is one of the rare "AFK" treasure lands that Qi Sheng has found.
This is also the area he decided to set as the next Novice Village space node.
I was able to find this place thanks to the information provided by Lord Welfare.
The average hunting level of plant monsters here is not high, especially in the area to the east.
Secondly, while exploring this area, he found an original monster here.
At this moment, the line of sight jumped to the end of the Senluo Forest in the west. A colorful giant mushroom stood on the horizon, like a towering mountain.
[Precognition (Ninth Generation)]:
Hunting level: Divine realm.
Introduction to the original monsters: The original monsters that have mastered the predictive characteristics can obtain information about the future through deduction (the deduction process simultaneously consumes mental energy and blood).
……
When Qi Sheng saw the huge origin monster as big as a mountain, he was shocked.
This was the first time he had seen the Ninth Generation Yuanchu, and a Ninth Generation Yuanchu at the divine level.
Its ability to master rules is even more powerful.
The guidance explains the "precognitive" feature as analyzing existing information and then accurately predicting future events.
This kind of predictive deduction is like a weather forecast.
They are all future trends made up of existing information, rather than directly seeing future content. This requires a process of deduction.
The guidance indicates that even StarNet has similar predictive future deduction capabilities.
For example, StarNet can grasp future trends through its powerful data processing capabilities.
However, there is still a lot of potential information that the Star Network cannot obtain, and the amount of information determines the accuracy of deducing the future.
The Ninth Generation's ability to predict the future was completely different.
When using this rule capability, information related to the deduction target (event) will be automatically collected, and then combined with the future trends of this information to combine the future results.
Take real-life examples.
The Star Network and the predicted rules work together to deduce a fighting event held by the Night Demons and the Giant Mangs.
Before starting the simulation, StarNet can collect all existing data, such as the historical records, physical condition, venue conditions, etc. of the participating fighters.
Then, based on these data, StarNet established a deduction model and used algorithms that combined the information to predict the results of the game.
Finally, a probability number is obtained.
The reason why it is a probability number rather than an exact result is that there are too many potential variables and unexpected events may occur.
The underlying information may be that the fighters suffered from insomnia the night before the competition, resulting in a poor mental state the next day.
It may also be that the contestants temporarily changed their playing style during the game.
Even the contestants accidentally fell down while walking on the road that night, injuring their knees, etc.
This is just a variable in reality. The bigger variable is that aliens suddenly invade tomorrow, causing the game to be cancelled.
The existence of unknown factors will inevitably affect the results of the next day's competition. Even if StarNet has big data, it cannot obtain all the information.
The advantage of the Ninth Generation Origin's "precognition" lies in the collection of current information.
Taking fighting events as an example, after using the predictive ability to lock in the event, all information related to the game will be automatically collected.
Including known information (the record of the two contestants, the status of the two contestants, etc.) and even potential information that is difficult to pay attention to (such as the contestants' mental state, on-the-spot performance, emergencies, etc.), will be included in the information statistics link for deduction.
However, during this process, the user of the capability will not see the content of the information collected.
In the process of deduction and calculation, the player's blood and mental strength are like the electricity when a computer is running, continuously supplying energy consumption for deducing the future and then directly obtaining the answer.
At this point, the guide used ants as an example to explain.
It means that if you use 100 points of energy to predict the future of an ant, you can see the future direction of the ant within 20 days.
But if you use 100 points of energy to predict the future of the "ant colony", the consumption of predictive deduction will increase due to more information, and you can only see the future of the ant colony half an hour later.
Because the ant colony is a complex dynamic system, each ant is a variable, and the interaction between variables will exponentially increase the amount of information, thereby increasing the cost of deduction.
So the smaller the target, the simpler the information the prediction rules need to process.
The larger the target, the more complex the information.
Second is time.
To predict the future and see further, the greater the amount of information involved in the deduced target, the greater the consumption.
For example, predicting the future of an ant 20 days later.
Although the amount of information is small, the time span is large, and more energy is consumed in the time span.
When predicting the future of the ant colony half an hour later, although the amount of information is huge, the time span is short, so the energy consumption focuses on the collection of information rather than the information amplification brought by the time span.
Secondly, the intensity of individual life will also affect energy consumption.
If we raise the target from ants to intelligent life, the complexity of the information will increase significantly.
The behavior patterns of ants are relatively simple, mainly driven by instinct, their activity range is relatively limited, and their information complexity is relatively low.
Intelligent life has complex thinking and logical abilities, and its behavior is influenced by a series of factors such as personal experience, social environment, cognitive level, emotional changes, etc., which significantly increases the complexity of information.
If intelligent life also has the ability to fly and cover a distance of 108,000 miles in one second, the amount of information will become even larger.
Because in the next second you need to take into account a series of events that may happen tens of thousands of miles away.
Therefore, target intensity, time span, event scope, and target group will all affect the energy consumption of predictive ability to obtain future information.
The Ninth Generation Precognition is a very powerful original ability in the eyes of the Guide.
It may even be the strongest original monster in the Pale Continent. At this stage, the player army has no ability to contain it.
As for the other forces in the Pale Continent, even if they have the strength, they are unwilling to challenge this Origin.
To the west of the Senluo Forest is the territory of the Soul Returning Clan.
However, the Soul Returning Clan never expanded eastwards to challenge the Ninth Generation Origin that blocked their way.
In addition to the heavy price required to destroy this Origin, the most important thing is that the Soul Return Clan cannot gain any benefits from killing the Origin, only negative losses.
The soul beasts created by the Soul Return Clan can obtain all the abilities of the target, including memory, by taking over the target's body.
However, facing the "origin" that is the embodiment of the rules of the monster world, even if you kill it, you cannot take away any trace of the rules.
This is also the core reason why "Precognition" can always stand on the earth and no force dares to challenge it, including the Anti-Tide Legion, which has never taken any action against this original monster.
Another reason is the character of the original monster.
Different original monsters have different personalities. This foresight looks very Buddhist.
It neither expanded its territory nor actively killed surrounding lives. It just quietly took root in the earth, absorbing the earth's energy and growing continuously.
The lack of threat is one of the reasons why Precognition has been able to survive until now and grow to the realm of God.
But there is only one core reason.
Knowing the future can allow it to avoid all possible dangers and escape calmly before the crisis strikes.
In theory, you can give yourself a predictive deduction every three days.
It can ensure that you will be in a safe state for the next three days.
However, the guidelines also state that the prediction rules have two insurmountable deductive limitations.
The first limitation is: it is impossible to deduce the future of “high-level rules”.
No matter how powerful the foresight is, it was once a part of the Emperor's Omen God.
Therefore, prediction cannot deduce the future of the person who possesses the Emperor's Omen Solid Origin, that is, his future.
Precognition is also unable to deduce the future direction of the super god behind the black tide.
The guidelines explain the principle.
Considering the world as a network world, once the predictive deduction capability is activated, all information related to the deduction content in the network world will be automatically checked.
To be more precise, a command is given to the cyber world, and information related to the deduction target is automatically integrated.
The high-level rules refer to the encrypted information in the cyber world. No matter how many commands are issued, it is impossible to obtain this encrypted content.
For example, the foreknowledge wants to deduce whether Emperor Omen will be resurrected in the future.
This part of the deduction involves "Emperor's Origin", so if we cannot obtain this information, the future that is pieced together will no longer be accurate.
If you cannot break through the encryption barrier of high-level rules, you will not be able to deduce the future related to high-level rules.
Even the high-level rules can not only be encrypted, but also have a self-protection mechanism. Any attempt to deduce the high-level rules will be blocked or interfered with.
For example, if you predict and deduce his future, he will know it.
This process is like someone knocking on the door and asking if they can get the information in the room.
Whether he opened the door or not, the knock had already happened.
So he can learn that someone is predicting his future, and when he is strong enough, he can even go through the Internet and beat the predictor up severely.
The second limitation is: information interference.
Once the future results deduced by the predictive ability are exposed to the outside world, they will have an impact on the development of events.
This leads to distorted deduction results.
In other words, the conclusions cannot be exposed to the outside world.
It’s not accurate to say it out loud.
Knowing the results of the deduction and knowing the future, creatures will adjust their behavior according to the "answer", thereby changing the direction of the future.
Take the example of real energy prices.
If StarNet predicts that energy prices will fall tomorrow and spreads the news, it will indirectly cause energy prices to fall further due to the impact of the prediction.
The results will exceed your expectations.
The influence of the star network determines the direction of the predicted results, so the higher the influence of the target who knows the deduction conclusion, the greater the factor that changes the deduction conclusion.
On the contrary, after StarNet came to the conclusion that energy prices would plummet tomorrow, it announced to the outside world that energy prices would inevitably soar tomorrow. This would also cause events that were supposed to happen to develop in the opposite direction and forcibly change the established pattern.
If the target influence of the deduction content is small, the spread of the predicted conclusions will also trigger a butterfly effect over time. The tiny impact will be gradually amplified through a chain reaction, ultimately leading to a future that is very different from the deduction results.
The longer the time, the greater the impact.
Therefore, the guidelines indicate that the conclusions of the deduction are affected by high-level rules and information interference.
If you want to make sure that the future you foresee will happen, first of all, you cannot deduce the future of the high-level rule controllers. Secondly, you cannot tell the outside world about the future you foresee, otherwise it will change the future and distort the predicted answer.
Perhaps the future will continue in the same direction, but there will inevitably be differences in details and trends.
There is no doubt that the original ability of foresight is very powerful.
But there are also many restrictions.
The stronger your own strength, the stronger your predictive ability will be.
The body can be considered as a power source and processor, and foresight is the rule algorithm, and only when combined can the effect be produced.
But Qi Sheng knew that he had no ability to defeat this "divine" Yuanchu at the moment.
There is a high probability that he will need to take action personally in the future.
He is the only one who is not subject to the prediction of the algorithm of predictive deduction.
No matter how strong his ability of foreknowledge and deduction is, it is useless to him who has mastered the emperor's omen and solidified his own origin.
Following the guidance, Qi Sheng passed through the "Senluo Forest Realm" and finally returned to the East District with the guidance.
The plant monsters here are the weakest in the entire area, so he decided to build the fifth Novice Village space node here.
After leaving an information coordinate point, Qi Sheng contacted Yan Ming to establish a space node here, and then returned to Dizhong Village with guidance.
Next, he plans to issue 500,000 player qualifications.
Speed up the speed at which players enter the game.
……
Earth, trading city.
The city was shrouded in rain.
Jiang Luo stood under the holographic projection billboard, watching the neon lights above his head spreading out in the rain.
This city that never sleeps, created by the integration of multiple races, is always shrouded in hazy light and shadow. The skyscrapers towering into the sky are like glowing pillars, cutting the sky into irregular geometric shapes.
The air smelled of motor oil and synthetic fragrances.
On the street, hover cars shuttled silently, and their headlights dragged long trails of light on the wet ground.
Occasionally, a holographic advertising girl would jump out from the street corner, promoting the latest alien technology equipment in a sweet voice.
"number 28."
Hearing the shouts, Jiang Luo tightened the collar of his windbreaker and walked into a food store on the corner.
The store’s decoration is abstract in color, which fits the characteristics of the “spice tribe”.
The original name of the Spice Clan was very complicated. The translated meaning is roughly Taste Bud Walker, Food Time Traveler, Spice Weaver, Taste Alchemist, Food Rhythm Singer, Taste Wanderer... and so on.
Finally, the Eclipse Clan was named the Spice Clan based on the characteristics of this clan.
This is very similar to the situation when the Eclipse Clan landed on the moon and was named the "Eclipse Clan" by humans.
The Spice Tribe is very good at making all kinds of delicious food. Food is also regarded by the Spice Tribe as a force to assist their own growth. Basically, every kind of food is infused with spiritual particles.
But that was only for that year.
Spiritual resources on earth are scarce, and the days when the Spice Tribe ate spiritual food for every meal are long gone.
The new generation even thinks that the older generation is bragging, and they dare not even imagine a day when they would eat spiritual food every day.
The spice tribe can now only earn foreign exchange by opening food restaurants in the ethnic cities.
He sat down at the wooden dining table, and the holographic ordering screen popped up automatically, moving along with Jiang Luo's focused pupils.
While ordering food, Jiang Luo was a little confused.
The usually bustling restaurant was unusually quiet today. There were many diners, but no one made any noise.
Along the way, I could see that all the diners were staring at their phones.
Without giving it much thought, he placed an order for his favorite "Rainbow Heart Soup Set Meal" and waited hungrily for the meal to be served.
The heating in the store was turned on very high, and a thin layer of mist formed on the glass. Out of boredom, he began to draw smiley faces on the mist with his fingers, and then watched it slowly disappear.
At this moment, the phone's ringtone suddenly rang.
I took out my cell phone and looked down, and found that it was a call from my best friend "Mahua".
Mahua and his friendship comes from the previous two generations.
His grandfather and Mahua's grandfather were sent to the Trading City to participate in urban construction and became permanent residents here.
The friendship has continued from my grandfather's generation to this day, and the two families often have dinner together.
With doubt, Jiang Luo picked up the phone and put it to his ear:
"What's the matter?"
"Where are you? Why don't you reply to my messages?"
"I'm hungry late at night, so I came out for a midnight snack. What's wrong?"
"Why don't you order takeout? You failed at the critical moment. Monster World's official website has been issuing game qualifications for most of the day. The exact number of qualifications is unknown. Everyone is scrambling for them now. How can you still think of having a midnight snack..."
Hearing the reminder from his best friend Mahua, Jiang Luo instantly became excited:
"Fuck, I'll go to the official website right now."
He noticed something was wrong when he came in; the restaurant was too quiet and everyone was staring at their phones.
Now I understand that these guys are all trying to get the game qualification for Monster World.
I logged into Monster World's official website on my phone and saw that there was 1 hour and 32 minutes left.
"so close!"
He decisively clicked on "Qualification Obtaining".
Suddenly a text popped up on the phone:
[The identity-bound account has applied for qualification, please wait patiently: the qualification lottery will be opened in 1 hour and 37 minutes. ]
I put the phone down, but then couldn't help picking it up again.
Looking at the jumping countdown numbers, Jiang Luo couldn't help but feel nervous.
Although the probability is slim, he is extremely eager to become the one in a million chosen person.
Becoming a qualified player has been his lifelong pursuit.
Every day he spends a lot of time in the live broadcast room of Monster World and even in the forum exchange section, indirectly experiencing the game content as a tourist.
I had dreams several times that I had successfully obtained the qualification for the game, but when I woke up, I was overwhelmed with disappointment.
Every time this happens, it feels like the whole world is dimming at this moment.
Now that the qualification has finally been awarded, he feels extremely tormented, fearing that he will miss it again.
My eyes were fixed on the ticking countdown numbers, but my perception of time became blurred.
"Hello, this is the rainbow heart soup set meal you ordered." The food delivery robot arrived at this time and placed the set meal he ordered on the table.
Jiang Luo's eyes were still fixed on the countdown numbers on his phone. He picked up a piece of meat dipped in spices with his chopsticks reflexively and put it into his mouth.
The food I once loved now seems tasteless, and the only four words that keep popping up in my mind are: game qualification.
As time passed, every time the numbers on the screen ticked, Jiang Luo's heart pounded heavily in his chest.
There were still three minutes left before the draw. He swallowed subconsciously, his throat aching with dryness.
He could even hear the sound of blood rushing in his temples, like rising waves, one after another.
The excessive stress also caused him to have tinnitus.
There were still two minutes left in the countdown. Jiang Luo's fingertips were numb and a thin layer of sweat seeped out of his back, sticking to his clothes.
last minute.
Jiang Luo bit his lower lip tightly and his breathing became rapid.
I looked up and out the window inadvertently, and the whole world became extremely quiet.
The only sound in the restaurant was heavy breathing. Even the chefs from the Spice Tribe inside the transparent glass next door had stopped working.
Looking down again, the numbers on the screen seemed to be infinitely stretched.
59, 58, 57... Every second seems as long as a century.
As the last ten seconds counted down, Jiang Luo's ears were buzzing, as if countless bees were flying around.
The emotional tension is like a fully drawn bow, with the whole body exerting force.
3, 2, 1!
His vision became blurred due to excessive tension, and he almost crushed the phone. His knuckles turned white and his palms were covered with cold sweat.
Suddenly, the page jumped!
[Congratulations, you have obtained the qualification to play the Monster World game. 】
“What the hell, hahahaha!”
Seeing the prompt, Jiang Luo stood up suddenly and laughed excitedly. Then he couldn't help but pinch his cheek hard.
He was afraid that this was just another false dream. When he woke up, he would still be that humble tourist who typed in the live broadcast room and was often blocked from speaking.
Confirming that he had really gotten the qualification to play the game, Jiang Luo's heart was instantly ignited with joy, and he couldn't help but shout out in excitement.
At the same time, the originally quiet restaurant was instantly filled with all kinds of noise.
The diners nearby followed suit with various shouts and curses:
"Stupid Eclipse Clan, you didn't win again. This is the nth time. I'll XXX you XXX."
"My good mood for the next few days has been ruined. Why is the game qualification for this monster world so slow to be issued? I can't stand it. I'm so angry. The stupid Eclipse tribe is so annoying."
"Which grandson next door won the lottery? You won too. What do you mean by shouting it out? I seriously suspect you are provoking me. I will come over and beat you up later."
"Add me in, and beat up that unlucky guy next door, and I'll take it out on you."
"Count me in too..."
At this time, Jiang Luo was still immersed in the joy of obtaining the qualification.
At this moment, he suddenly found that the surroundings became quiet again.
Jiang Luo looked up and found that the dining table was surrounded by members of different races, all with undisguised jealousy on their faces.
"Human boy, keep a low profile when you go out. This will be a lesson for you."
As he spoke, a nearly three-meter-tall alien member rolled up his sleeves:
"beat him!"
……
"Authentication passed, welcome home, Master."
When you open the door, the lights in the house will automatically light up, and the busy sweeping robot will automatically "return to its nest" and go into sleep mode.
After closing the door, Jiang Luo returned to the room and stood in front of the mirror.
The man in the mirror had a bruised face.
It turns out that grabbing Monster World game qualifications cannot be done outside.
The joy after success is simply impossible to suppress, and it is easy for passers-by nearby to envy and beat them up, becoming the target of their anger.
He had seen a piece of news when the last round of qualifications were issued.
A man from the Defeat Clan held up his mobile phone on the street, cheering excitedly that he had won the qualification to play the game.
Then he was pinned to the ground and beaten violently by the tribesmen passing by nearby.
During this time, a kind-hearted passerby came forward to ask about the situation and tried to persuade them to resolve the situation.
It turned out that he learned that the man who was beaten had grabbed the qualification for the Monster World, so he went up and kicked him a few times to vent his anger.
When he saw the news, he thought it was ridiculous. Although it was infuriating that someone had snatched the qualification, the tribesmen passing by would not resort to violence.
We now live in a society ruled by law, and beating people is against the law.
Until a similar incident actually happened to me.
Looking at his disheveled self in the mirror, Jiang Luo couldn't help but grin.
This little pain is insignificant compared to obtaining the qualification to play the Monster World game.
He took out a spray from the medical kit and sprayed it on the bruised wound. Then Jiang Luo took out his cell phone from his pocket and called his best friend "Mahua".
Soon, the video call was connected successfully.
In the picture, Mahua is carrying a can of nutrient solution in one hand and going upstairs.
Seeing Jiang Luo with a bruised face, Mahua in the video looked very surprised:
"Daluo, didn't you go out for a midnight snack...and what did you eat was fists and feet?"
"Yes, it's delicious." Jiang Luo couldn't help rolling his eyes. Just as he was about to speak, his eyes focused on the nutrient can in Mahua's hand:
"What are you doing, carrying a nutrition tank in the middle of the night?"
"Of course it's to change the nutrient solution. I have a little joy that I want to share with you, but I don't know how to say it."
Jiang Luo's heart trembled:
"You kid, you won't get the qualification to play in Monster World, right?"
"Hehe, yesterday my mom went to the Star Network Temple next door and burned a stick of incense on the Star Network for me. I didn't expect that I would really win today. The Cyber God is indeed more reliable than the real God, because the Cyber God really exists."
At this point, Mahua suddenly frowned, looking very confused.
"What's wrong with you again?" Jiang Luo couldn't help but ask.
“What’s the emotional value you gave?”
"What emotional value."
"From what I know about you, after hearing this news, you even wanted to kill me. First, your defense was broken, then you started to curse, and you might even roll on the ground like a shrew... Your calmness now makes me suspect that you have been possessed."
As he spoke, Mahua leaned closer to the camera:
"You're not normal."
Jiang Luo heard this and grinned:
"Is there a possibility that I also got the game qualification of Monster World?"
"Fuck, really?"
Jiang Luo did not explain and shared the screenshots in the album:
"That's why I was so excited that I shouted a little too loudly, and ended up getting punched and kicked by a passerby."
"Hahaha, Ronaldinho, we can play games together again, hurry up and get online."
"Well, I'll change the nutrient solution later and go online to open up the wasteland together."
After hanging up the phone, Jiang Luo felt happy.
From now on, he will have his own name in the Monster World Forum, instead of a visitor's name prefixed with a bunch of numbers.
Please speak louder in forums and live broadcast rooms in the future.
At least they will no longer be called cloud players, and there will be no situation where everyone’s speech is blocked by one click.
Just thinking about it makes me feel happy.
The desire to enter the game continued to grow in his heart, and he immediately began to get busy.
The play time of Monster World is measured in days, and the game cabin must be equipped with nutrient solution in advance to ensure at least one week of game consumption.
Otherwise it would be really troublesome to frequently take it offline for replacement, which is why Mahua prepares nutrient tanks in advance.
Without the assistance of a home robot, he would have to do this work himself.
Before entering the game, he called his parents.
He said that he would not be offline for the next few days, and asked him not to make emergency calls unless necessary to avoid affecting his gaming experience.
When they learned that he had secured a spot to play Monster World, the expressions on his parents’ faces in the video were fascinating.
Especially his father, who was happy for him but also seemed very depressed, saying that he had tried for several rounds but still couldn't get the qualification to play the game.
Finally, the father said:
"I will monitor the maintenance of the game warehouse through my phone. You just work hard in the game. If you don't log off after a week, I will go to your place to help you replace the nutrient solution. What you need to do is to earn more sacrifice power in the monster world before your father gets the game qualification, so that you can take your father to take off at that time."
"By the way, remember to start the live broadcast when you enter the game. Your dad loves to watch it."
Finally, he called his best friend Mahua and agreed on a meeting place for the new map, then Jiang Luo entered the game cabin.
As the translucent hatch cover pressed down, the excitement reached its peak.
Half an hour later, Jiang Luo appeared at the teleportation point of the fifth space node "Senluo Forest Realm".
The noise suddenly came like a tidal wave.
Looking around, the space square was already packed with dense crowds of people, and new players of different races gathered here.
The short but energetic green elf player moved flexibly among the crowd, chattering and shouting, his shrill voice standing out amid the noise.
Next to him, the tall and mighty Stone Giant player was like a moving mountain, standing out among the new players.
"Make way, make way, my tail is stuck." A cat-eared girl shouted anxiously. Her tail was accidentally caught by the crowded crowd of players, and her face turned red with anxiety.
"Sorry, the Novice Village is too crowded." An apology followed.
"Hahaha, from now on I'm the man of destiny, I'm coming to the world of monsters."
"Is anyone trying to form a team? I don't have any friends or family, so I want to find a strong organization to fight together."
"Wow, there are so many people here. Everyone, please stop crowding. Let's go out hunting. Why are you crowding here?"
Some players excitedly chatted with strangers next to them, sharing their aspirations for the game.
Some players looked anxious and wandered around in the crowd at a loss, trying to find the direction to leave the village.
The lively atmosphere of land reclamation is overwhelming.
Jiang Luo called out the map panel at this time and took a lot of effort to reach the agreed location.
Just as I was about to look for my best friend Mahua, I was patted on the shoulder:
"Daluo."
When he turned around, he saw his best friend Mahua looking at him excitedly.
"Let's form a team and go out first, it's too chaotic here." Jiang Luo immediately sent a team invitation to Mahua, and then the two of them followed the crowded crowd and slowly moved towards the exit of the Novice Village.
It took them 18 minutes to walk this distance.
After passing through the space barrier and feeling a brief sense of weightlessness, what appears before your eyes is a green world shrouded in night.
On the plain covered with green plants, various luminous spores are floating in the air.
Jiang Luo took a deep breath of the air filled with life particles and was shocked.
The air in the game seemed to carry some kind of magic, cool and moist, flowing into the lungs through the nasal cavity, instantly filling the whole body.
This is a feeling that has never been experienced before.
Breathing feels like eating. Every mouthful is filled with countless tiny life particles, awakening dormant cells in the body.
He often sees old players on the forum saying that they are unwilling to log off after staying in Monster World for a long time.
Some even said that being offline was torture and they just wanted to get online as soon as possible.
He couldn't understand it at the time, but this breath of air filled with life particles made him understand the reason.
What a treat it is! The qualified players really eat very well.
Now, me too!
"Daluo, get started."
Mahua's voice was heard, Daluo turned his head and found that Mahua had switched to gargoyle form.
"By the way, should we play the combined King Kong mode? The forum said this system is very suitable for novice players to start with."
"I have a better one." Jiang Luo grinned and twisted his body.
It transformed into a small sapling, and then jumped onto Mahua's shoulders.
"What kind of crappy soul did you choose? I haven't even seen this thing on the forum." Seeing that Jiang Luo's soul was in the form of a sapling, Mahua couldn't hold it anymore.
In the early stage, the three mythical gods are the mainstream. Even if you don’t choose the three mythical gods, if you want to hunt and upgrade quickly, you have to choose output and match it with a damage-bearing player to improve combat endurance.
After watching many live broadcasts, this was the first time he saw a newbie using a sapling-shaped soul to fight.
"You know nothing. My soul form is called Extraction. It is indeed very weak in other scenes, but in the novice scene of Senluo Forest, I am a well-deserved T0-level True God."
"Really?"
"Nonsense, how can I possibly make a living with such an important opening."
Afterwards, Jiang Luo shared the information about extracting the soul in the team chat channel.
[Extraction (First Generation Soul)]:
Soul Introduction: By decomposing plant life forms, they are converted into pure plant essence (spiritual plant essence). The essence contains the energy and characteristics of plant life and can be used to improve body building levels, treat injuries, and make potions.
……
As a senior cloud player in the forum.
Although he never qualified, Jiang Luo had a deep understanding of the monster world.
He read the combinations of star veins, the use of various functions, the analysis of soul characteristics...including the popular strategy posts on the forum.
Preparations for qualification were made very early on.
I didn’t study as seriously as I do now. I read all the mainstream knowledge involved in the game.
The purpose is to be able to grow quickly when you are qualified to play the game.
According to the introduction of the players who follow strategy in the forum, the Extraction Soul is an ancient soul from the period of the Three Mythical Gods, but after its debut, it has always been at the bottom of the version, and only a very small number of players will choose it.
During this period, there was a heated discussion in the forum, but it quickly subsided.
Because extracting souls can neither improve combat effectiveness nor provide auxiliary capabilities for mainstream players.
Only players in the Pharmacist Guild will use it to develop special potions such as "gene seeds".
The strength of other life souls has fluctuated in each version, including the first position in the version. In addition to the Food of Breath, other life souls have also reached the top.
The only thing that has always been at the bottom of the list is the "Extraction" soul, which has never wavered.
However, the author of this strategy guide, Dark Night is Coming, also mentioned future prospects when introducing the extraction of souls.
It shows that if the player's enemies in the future are a monster army composed of plants, Soul Extraction will be at the top of the list in that version until the plant army is completely destroyed and it falls back down.
Jiang Luo was deeply impressed by this because after this sentence, Dark Night is Coming also said:
Facts have proved that there is no weakest soul, only the most suitable soul.
Before having supper, he read the analysis of the new map by the forum players. One player mentioned that the version of Rise of Soul Extraction was coming.
So this time when he entered the game, he immediately chose to extract the soul from dozens of souls.
"Fuck, why didn't you remind me."
"When I remind you, will you change?" Jiang Luo looked at Mahua in the gargoyle form.
"Indeed, I still prefer close combat and I will definitely not change."
"Stop talking nonsense and kill the monsters quickly. Upgrading in the early stages is the most important."
"Go ahead."
Mahua Chuuniburi roared and charged towards the plain ahead.
There are new players everywhere along the way.
As soon as a plant-type monster appears, a large group of players will rush over to snatch it.
The scene was like a riot of demons.
Various conflicts of interest also arose. The real-life friendship between tribes turned into conflicts due to conflicts of interest in the unlimited scene of the monster world.
The lively atmosphere of pioneering and the full sense of immersion made Jiang Luo feel that this was what a virtual game should feel like.
As you move forward, you will see more new players than monsters.
Walking through the park full of green plants, a dreamlike scene appears before your eyes.
In the fluorescent woven scene, blue flowers stretch out their feathery leaves and expand and contract their branches as if breathing.
Orange fireflies and countless luminous spores float in the air like tiny stars. Blue flocs of light like meteors keep falling from the sky, lighting up the entire night sky like stars.
"found it."
The sound of Mahua was heard, and Jiang Luo came back to his senses and looked up.
Not far away, a plant more than one meter tall and covered with thorns was slowly twisting its body.
Analysis sweep:
【Thorn Grass】:
Hunting level: Level 3.
Target introduction: A plant-based life form unique to the Senluo Forest region of the Pale Continent. When the spikes on its body hit the target, it will secrete a painful toxin (mental toxin), causing the target to fall into severe pain.
……
Hunting level 3 is still too strong for them who have just entered the game.
But thinking that it was not easy to encounter a monster, Mahua stepped forward decisively and slapped the thorn grass directly with his sharp black claws.
The blow hit the thorn grass, making a dull sound, and the thorn grass instantly counterattacked.
Countless thorns lashed at the twisted dough like whips, and the sound of breaking wind was heard in the air.
clap clap.
The thorns hit Mahua, who had not yet activated his petrified form. Mahua instantly fell to the ground, howling in pain.
Jiang Luo, who landed immediately, decisively released his "extraction" ability on the thorn grass.
The feeling of mental power draining away was like the emptying of energy during a “shush” movement. Dense green bubbles appeared on the thorn grass, and the body quickly melted away like butter in boiling water.
Before the thorn grass could launch a second round of attack, it disappeared, leaving behind only a ball of plant essence formed by green bubbles.
"Fuck, the output of extraction is so high, it's so easy to kill a higher level enemy, it's amazing."
At this moment, the challenger prompt sounded in my mind.
Killing thorn grass only rewards evolution points, but no sacrifice power rewards.
This is obviously due to the extraction of the soul, and the reward for the sacrificial power is presented in the form of a plant essence ball.
Jiang Luo switched to the main form and stepped forward to put the ball of plant essence into the space bag.
Turning around, I saw Mahua still rolling on the ground.
"Mahua, does it hurt so much? Can the gargoyle form also be poisoned?"
"Mental toxin, try it." Mahua's voice was hoarse and his eyes were red.
"I won't try. It's said that 89% of players who play the damage-taking style will give up in the early stages. What do you think now?"
"I did have the thought of giving up just now, but I put it out. I will try again."
After a long while, Mahua stood up, looking exhausted.
Seeing Mahua's condition, Jiang Luo could imagine how vigorous those old players who played the injury-bearing style were to be able to persist until now.
Heaven is to the left, warriors are to the right.
The forum never deceived me.
No wonder the players who take damage in each team are treated the best.
After encountering the first monster, Mahua, a loyal tank player, had the idea of giving up. It’s scary to think about it.
Just as they were chatting, a large number of players came from behind, and the sight was once again filled with the figures of new players.
Jiang Luo immediately switched to soul form and followed Mahua to continue exploring forward, searching for plant-type monsters that could be hunted.
Preliminary attempts show that the strength of Soul Extraction in the current scenario is above the model.
It is simply a hunting artifact. We must hurry up and become stronger so that we can explore other areas in the future.
The Colorful Mist Coast, the Winter Snowfield, the Cave World...especially when he was a cloud player, the battlefield of the Emperor's Tomb Mountains that made his blood boil, that was where he and Mahua would be destined to be.
Before entering the game, he set a small goal: to join a guild in the United League.
The best is the Temple Guild led by the God King.
But before that, they have to prove themselves, because the Temple Guild only recruits elite troops.
"Let's set off towards the battlefield of the Emperor's Tomb, starting with hunting."
Half an hour later, Mahua, who had successfully hunted a monster again, lay on the ground gasping for breath, then turned his head to look at Jiang Luo who was picking up the plant essence ball:
"Daluo, I want to discuss something with you."
"explain."
"How about you play Gargoyle and I extract souls instead?"
"roll."
