Chapter 1795 Observation Seat
Game time AM07:12
Rebecca appeared in the player preparation area on the third underground floor of the Prince Courtyard Arena, sitting alone in the corner maintaining her equipment. .
That's right, it's not just pretending to be fashionable, but really maintaining your weapons and armor so that they can perform better in the next battle.
In the World of Innocence, most equipment is not limited to the two states of 'usable' and 'unusable'. Just like mounts such as war horses, equipment also has its own status. After the durability is reduced to a certain level, the strength and additional attributes will be reduced. In addition, there are many practical tips. The more basic one is to apply [Jue Yuan Glue] on the surface of the protective gear to reduce the damage. Damage caused by magic, or use a high-quality whetstone before battle to increase the armor-breaking coefficient of the weapon.
Of course, except for a few players who specialize in forging or enchanting, few people will work hard on equipment maintenance. The reason has been mentioned before, that is, except for a few strong players, most players are still in the state of character strength. In order to reduce the intensity of equipment, instead of letting them work on weapons and armor that God knows will be eliminated tomorrow, it is more cost-effective to let them practice more and specialize.
The reason why Rebecca is more proficient in this aspect is not that like Awakening Dragon, she already has semi-graduated equipment that can accompany her for a long time and is quite powerful online, but simply because... Be diligent and thrifty.
That’s right, it’s thrift! Different from the stinginess of Yu Ying and others, and the stinginess of Jun Wu and others, this girl Rebecca is just playing games and is very thrifty. This can be seen from the fact that she only bought high-quality fraud orbs.
In this regard, Xinglong, who has always been hostile to Rebecca, did not do very well. Perhaps it was because he was promoted by the Red Constellation Club as soon as he came up, and was later promoted to captain by Hanmei Lightspeed. The reason for the big hat is that although Xinglong went through a period of great pressure in all aspects, he did not have the awareness of 'diligence and frugality'.
To put it simply, under the leadership of Luo Ou, the boss of Red Constellation, although everyone does not engage in extravagance and waste, they do not like to 'haggle' on the premise that they can improve themselves, so even if The price/performance ratio is not high. As long as it can make you stronger, the club stronger, and the guild stronger, Red Constellation’s principle is to buy it! purchase! purchase!
What? The new prismatic gems in the version can reduce the global cooldown time of the character who awakens the dragon by 0.02s? It's just a bit premium, the market has already fetched 300 yuan a piece? purchase! There will be a competition next week, wrap it up! Sell as many as you have! I'd rather it rot in your hands than let others use it!
What? The enchantment on Hanmei's robe was secretly changed by a stupid plan? Because it is permanently bound, can I just buy a new robe of the same style and spend a lot of money to change the enchantment type? Change! Not only Hanmei, but also all the players from the first and second teams who were tricked by the enchantment did statistics and all were changed!
What? The club bus had a flat tire? transfer! This kind of safety hazard cannot be left alone, so it is a good time to get a dragon-themed itasha.
To sum up, no matter what the members of the Red Constellation were like before, after joining, their concept of money will immediately drop to a very dangerous level in a short period of time. mentality.
As for the boss Luo Ou, who knows that Chaimi is expensive, he doesn’t care about the money at all, because he likes to use money to make money. In other words, in his opinion, these investments will generally generate profits. Not to mention the benefits of making the character stronger, in e-sports competitions Things are changing rapidly, and sometimes a skill or a critical hit can affect the situation of a game. Even if the car has a flat tire and needs to be replaced directly, it is a way to take care of publicity at the same time. Needless to say, advertisers are definitely happy to hear about this kind of thing.
In other words, in Luo Ou's view, everything that requires money must have benefits, and as long as it is managed properly, such benefits can offset the upfront expenses even if they cannot generate positive returns. The whole issue of no loss or profit is not a big deal, so since no matter how bad it is, no loss is no gain, why not change the character to better gems, enchantments, and why not change it to a more comfortable car?
And it’s not like we change a set of equipment or a car every day. Even if we lose a small amount, can we still lose money to the club? Isn't this funny?
In short, regardless of whether this idea is right or wrong, this is what Luo Ou thinks and does. From the perspective of consequentialism, Red Constellation has indeed not suffered any large losses in the past ten years, but has made more and more profits. His hair became outrageous, which proved that there was nothing wrong with his thinking.
Of course, the method that works for Luo Ou and Crimson Constellation may not work for other people. It is not impossible to change clubs and directly lose money to bankruptcy. But at least for people like Xinglong and Hanmei, what they lack is directly It is no longer a habit to withdraw money from the [player budget] or the guild in the game and then go to the financial department to report it, but it is an 'instinct'.
But clubs like Red Constellation are relatively rare on the entire earth. Although other top clubs are not too stingy with players, especially in terms of weapons and equipment, they will spare no effort to support them, but very few Unfortunately, the [Lightning Girl] club that Rebecca belongs to does not have this level of strength, courage and financial resources.
As I said before, female gamers are not taken very seriously in the United States (there are many transgender 'female' gamers in the UK who are very fierce), and their status in the professional circle is not very high, so pure players like [Lightning Girl] Naturally, women's clubs are not that rich. To put it bluntly, as a first-class women's club, [Lightning Girl] does not even receive as much advertising sponsorship as those second-rate clubs, despite relying on various competitions, exhibitions and even commercial performances. The competition can ensure the operation of the club and normal salary payment, but life is actually relatively poor.
Under such conditions, Rebecca, as the captain and core member, has long learned to lead by example, save what she can, and work hard to reduce the burden on the club without affecting her own strength, that is - - Diligent and frugal.
Because of her diligence and frugality, Rebecca found a blacksmith shop and taught herself a blacksmithing craft, even though she had almost never left the Warring States. Although she was not able to do it herself like the girl A Qing next to Gawen. The equipment is manufactured, but daily maintenance and repairs are not a problem at all, which can be said to be quite economical.
Of course, the forging thing is just an interlude. Rebecca’s main theme in [The Boundary of Innocence] has always been to play in the arena!
Unlike the vast majority of players, Rebecca’s main channel for understanding the Realm of Innocence is not her own experience, but information from the Internet and several large English forums. As for herself, she has been in Savage Heights She played in the [Warband Daragabu] Arena, and now this [Prince Courtyard Arena] is her second stop.
Upgrading levels, honing skills, and updating equipment, Rebecca's Revenge only requires these three items, and these three items can be completed in the Warring States Arena, and because each battle is accompanied by system tasks, compared to Considering the adventure mode chosen by mainstream players, Rebecca's character improvement speed is simply ridiculously high, second only to people like Dabus and Tian Xingdao who teach in Academy City.
In fact, many players are familiar with the arena. Mo Tan, Ji Xiaoge and others have played in the extremely high-level Tianzhu Mountain Arena, and Cordoba has not yet. Successful graduation leads to a miserable life of being beaten every day, but players like Rebecca take root in [Battle Bandaragabu] after entering the trap. Every day they go online in addition to playing arena games, they also There really is no second one.
There is no other reason. For ordinary players, this kind of behavior will have a devastating impact on the game experience, and most professional players are not interested in this kind of exercise that is tantamount to masochistic. As for Lei Becca herself...
She actually doesn't want to, but she has no choice. She can only play games for up to ten hours a day on working days, and there is no funding and support from the studio. If she wants to rush To follow the footsteps of Awakening Dragon, you must use extreme methods to achieve it quickly!
One thing to say is that compared to the Tianzhu Mountain Arena that Mo Tan fought in, the arena in [Zhanbang Daragabu] is much rougher and wilder, and the most fearsome one among them is , it’s just that the protection mechanism for players is not that perfect. To put it simply, people can easily be maimed or even killed during the game!
It is no exaggeration to say that even in an upper-class arena like the Prince's Courtyard Arena, which has a higher threshold and is more carefully managed, there will be an average of two or three lives lost every day, and there will be countless serious injuries and disabilities.
Being able to play at a high position in a place like this with a frequency of at least five games a day, it is indeed impossible for Rebecca Hopkins to slow down her progress.
And the first opponent she has to face today is——
...
"A half-step epic warrior profession, and it is also a mammoth clan..."
Ten minutes later, in the first section of the Prince's Court Arena [High Court], in a VIP box on the sixth floor of the stands, there was a man with long black hair tied up and a tall and slender figure. It looked as if a gust of wind could blow it away. The man murmured in a low voice, then turned to look at the woman next to him with long, flame-red hair and an eyepatch: "Go and buy Leibei for 30,000 gold coins to win alone, plus the duration of the battle. If the condition is more than thirty minutes, the odds should not be low. "Both of them are wearing cloaks with a lot of cyan patterns like uniforms, with an arrow-like blue bird printed on the back. They can be said to be handsome men and beautiful women, although they are not. Yidong and Yuchen have good looks that can be called flamboyant, but they are definitely the kind of excellent appearance that makes it easy to find a partner as long as the personality is not too bad.
As for temperament, the man stands out as a gentle and calm person, like a worldly master who will not starve to death without eating for ten years, while the woman wearing an eye patch is hot and cool. My sister's route is like that of a beautiful pirate leader.
"Xiao Fang, are you sick?"
The beautiful pirate leader rolled his eyes, then turned to look at the two people who were saluting each other in the field below, and said angrily: "You said it yourself, it was a half-step epic. We still bought that foreign girl because we thought the funds given by the boss were not enough?"
The man known as Xiao Fang nodded slightly, then took out a voucher from the Gold Coin Chamber of Commerce from his bag and handed it over: "Well, what you said makes sense, then I'll just buy it with my own money."
"Uh..."
The blindfolded woman did not take the voucher handed to her. But after hesitating for a while, he asked: "伱...are you sure about it?"
"Yes."
The man nodded and said calmly : "But you can choose not to believe it. After all, I am not 100% sure."
"Then how sure are you?"
"Ninety-five percent."
"Gan!"
The woman gritted her teeth and clapped the other person's hand. Go back, reincarnate angrily and walk out of the box, shouting loudly without looking back as he walks: "You better not lie to me, otherwise we will have to run back to the headquarters!"
"Run." It doesn’t hurt to run away.”
The man put away the voucher in his hand and smiled: "After all, life lies in sports."
Bang! ! !
His answer was a loud banging on the door.
"Really, this temper can't be changed a little bit..."
He shook his head helplessly, currently ranked ninth in the personal combat power rankings of the Innocence Realm, [Broken [Wind Bird] The brain of the main team of the club [Alchemist] sighed lightly, and then turned his attention to the field again.
Ninety-five percent is just a conservative statement. In his opinion, unless Rebecca suddenly loses the Internet and power and is forcibly ejected from the game, she will definitely win the game, and most likely she will win the game when the game reaches forty. About five minutes later.
This is not nonsense or super power, it is just a prediction made after combining the levels, habits, styles and other factors of both parties. Just as it is extremely possible to assume that there is an existence that can process all the information in the world in real time. Just like foreseeing the future, what the alchemist does is just to make a logical judgment after mastering all the necessary information.
This is unbelievable to many people, including the companion who bought the match results for him just now. He is also a core member of the main team of the [Broken Wind Bird] club and is currently in the personal power rankings. Everyone, including the 67th-ranked [Xizhao], felt that this kind of thing was simply outrageous, but they were always speechless in front of the established fact that the alchemist had guessed.
As for his own explanation, 'Everyone has his or her own strengths, I am just talented in intelligence collection and analysis'.
There is nothing wrong with his words in terms of direction, but... whether it is 'quite' is open to question.
"Unfortunately, it seems that she just wants to cause trouble for Brother Long. We really can't help."
Looking at the opponent's stormy offensive, she has always been able to fight without leaks, without revealing any flaws. "Rebecca," the alchemist said with regret, and took out a bottle of [Green Apple], a new product from the Chamber of Commerce, from his bag and took a sip -
"That's it, just treat it as a casual move. , go back and wait until the [Controversy on Crime] is over, and let’s get in touch again..."
