Chapter 117 The Last Long-cherished Wish
Yuanchu Altar.
Qi Sheng was looking through the recently refreshed strategy posts on the forum.
After the players in the kindergarten group successfully contained the Sanya Soul, the forum started a simulation test review of the new Soul.
As the 25th Yuanchu monster that players have taken in, Sanya seems to be just an inconspicuous generation of Yuanchu.
But the emergence of the Scattered Arrow Bow has filled a gap in the professional classification of the monster world.
That is the remote physical output genre.
After testing by forum raider players, the strength of Sanya Life Soul is very high, and the original characteristic effect is that it can cut all attacks into multiple offensives.
Even the inlaying of legal players can produce miraculous effects.
For example, the ink flame fireball of the Bone Fire Life Soul can be cut into multiple fireballs for ranged strikes after being embedded with scattered arrows.
Before this, the ink flame attack could only speed up the output frequency, but every fireball fired was a single attack, but the scattered arrows could cut the ink flame into group fireballs.
In terms of power, the rule characteristics of Sanya Soul Soul can allow the ability to be cut to retain 20% of the effect, and no matter how many parts are cut, 20% of the effect can be maintained. The specific number of cuts is affected by the level of Sanya Soul Soul.
Or it can bind the life soul, and with the addition of scattered arrows, it can turn a single target into a group immobilization effect.
The only thing that bothers legal players is that after the Sanya Life Soul level is increased, the main attribute that increases is not mental strength, but physical fitness.
In the evaluation of the Raiders players, the scattered arrow was used as the main weapon, and there was no need to carry an arrow every time the bow was drawn.
The player's vitality and blood value will be automatically extracted and condensed into vitality and blood arrows for release.
Whether it is the bonus ratio of the main attributes or the cost of using the characteristics of the scatter bow, it is more in line with the physical genre.
This made many legal players lament.
The characteristic effects are so adapted to the life soul of the legal system, but in terms of attribute bonus and characteristic consumption, it cannot be adapted to the legal profession.
After half a day of testing, there are three Star Pulse combinations with the highest praise rate among forum players.
The first combination was proposed by The Dark Night: The Explosive Stream of Equipment Spirit.
The matching life soul is: Scattered Arrow + Forceful Axe + Broken Knife + Soul Separating Gun + Extreme Speed.
This set of Star Pulse style focuses on an output explosion. The Scattered Arrow Bow provides long-range single target output or group output, the Brutal Ax increases the physical damage value, the crushing characteristic increases the numerical damage, and the Soul Separating Gun creates a mental shock.
It not only has ultra-high output damage, but also can cause mental damage. The test results are excellent, and the output efficiency is not weaker than the strength of the mainstream legal systems.
Finally, coupled with extreme speed, you can shoot more than a dozen arrows in one second at critical times, causing explosive damage.
The second combination was proposed by the forum strategy player "Super Magic Chicken Boy": Functional Arrow.
The matching life soul combination is: Scattered Arrow + Binding + Black-armored Snake (Venom) + Forbidden Blade.
Although this genre ranks second in terms of likes, its overall strength is higher than the explosive flow proposed by The Night Is Coming.
Especially suitable for team battles.
The effect is to produce group special effects through scattered arrows.
In the demonstration screen, the super chicken pulls the bow and shoots ten blood arrows, hitting ten targets in front of him.
The hit target is also restricted by restraints, and is subject to the superimposed damage effect of poison and forbidden blade. The performance is outstanding in the test, and the continuous output and functionality are much stronger than the weapon spirit burst flow.
The third-ranked genre was proposed by the forum raider player "Reading to Support a Family": Speed Ranger.
The matching star pulse combination is: Sanya + Extreme Speed + Dusk Shadow + Breath-taking.
This combination is not as good as the above two star pulse combinations in terms of output, but it is better in mobility.
Its characteristic is that it can quickly roam through Dusk Shadow Life Soul, reveal itself and deal a set of high-frequency burst damage at high speed, and then continue to switch to Dusk Shadow Escape, using the breath-taking characteristic to restore the loss of energy and blood caused by the output, and wait for the opportunity to strike again.
This combination is more like a long-range version of an assassin, and is very suitable for players who have no skills but want to be as elegant as an assassin.
Each of the three combinations has its own advantages and disadvantages, but they performed better than the other combinations in the evaluation.
This has also attracted many players to change the Star Pulse combination.
Some of them are like Mengwa, who have always been looking forward to the remote physics genre, and now they finally have the opportunity to change careers.
The only drawback of the Scattered Arrow Bow is its hit rate.
For players who have experienced remote physical output professions such as archers in other virtual games, they only need a short period of training to skillfully use a scatter bow as a weapon.
But for players who have never been exposed to it, it will take a certain amount of practice to accurately hit the target.
The emergence of the scattered arrow bow has also given the player legion a new direction of growth in the combat profession.
As the number of original monsters under containment increases, the choice of growth genres is showing a diversified development trend.
In addition to the offensive, defensive, and functional types of the general system, each system has derived different gameplay styles, each with its own advantages.
And this is exactly the development trend Qi Sheng wants to see.
The challenges that players will face in the future are daunting.
The terrifying black tide, the fighting Zerg, the mechanical legion, the ancient gods... there may be more forces that have not yet appeared in the monster world. Only the development of a diversified combat power system can deal with powerful enemies with different styles and characteristics, and adapt to complex combat in the environment.
Although it has been more than two months since the server was launched.
But in Qi Sheng's eyes, the development of the player army is still in its infancy, and there is still more combat power that needs to be expanded.
For example, it is already docking the "armed vehicle" function of the Challenger system.
Others include an all-around automatic training system, a skill guidance system, a pet system, etc. that are under planning.
However, the creation of these functions requires a huge expenditure of sacrifices and a certain amount of technical support, and some content must be explored and collected by players.
For example, the all-powerful automatic cultivation system requires a special organ that can perfectly adapt to all cultivation techniques.
It is also necessary to add an automatic operation program on the basis of this organ, allowing players to drive the "omnipotent organ" by burning sacrifice power, so that it is always in a state of absorbing the spiritual energy of the world, and brings players a continuous increase in physical training experience.
This setting can significantly speed up the improvement of the player's physical fitness level, thereby accelerating the player's growth rate.
It will become very difficult to increase the level of forging in the future. Every 10 levels will be a bottleneck, and the sacrifice power that needs to be consumed will increase several times in the future.
There is no fully automatic training method to speed up growth. Players who want to match the star pulse combination of dozens of life souls will be severely limited by the speed of improving the body training level.
But Qi Sheng is temporarily unable to do this.
I asked Jiuyin, who controls the power of purification, and learned that if you want to build a fully automatic training system without a reference template, it will take a huge amount of sacrifice power.
The sacrifice power currently produced by players is simply not enough to support it.
So many ideas and settings are still in the idea stage.
At this stage, the consumption of sacrifice power must also give priority to player recruitment, domain division, special activities, etc.
The creation of all new functions must be based on whether the player's current sacrifice output value matches.
……
Colorful fog coast, the land of the Dayan tribe.
At dawn, Xia Sheng and Jiang Cheng had already woken up.
Standing in front of the old house dedicated to the gods, they began to stretch, mentally prepared to face a new round of devastation from Lao Den.
After these days of hard training, they have cultivated the painful life soul given by Lao Deng to level 12, and their strength has increased rapidly.
The second is the physical training level. With the financial resources accumulated by Lao Deng, their physical training level has reached level 5, and the speed of improvement is comparable to that of a rocket.
The only drawback is that the process is painful.
After a set of stretching exercises ended, Xia Sheng was confused:
"Hey, why hasn't Lao Deng come yet?"
"Did you oversleep?" Jiang Cheng took a bite of the spirit fruit he took out from his space bag, chewed it and made a guess.
"Impossible, do you really think that Lao Deng disappeared to go to sleep? He could have stayed up for several days... Could it be that something happened?"
Thinking of this, the two looked at each other, and then ran decisively towards the dilapidated house not far away.
Although they call him Lao Deng, they can feel the care and attention that Ascetic has for them through these days of contact. During this period, he spent the accumulated resources on them without any distress, which made them have feelings for Ascetic.
Thinking that Xi Xing was getting weaker and weaker these days, they suddenly had a bad feeling.
Lao Deng was afraid that he didn't survive last night and couldn't wake up.
Pushing open the old wooden door, I saw Xi Xing sitting cross-legged on the wooden bed, his face pale. Analyzing the feedback reveals that Ascetic is falling into a state of extreme weakness.
This made Xia Sheng and Jiang Cheng feel bad.
Lao Deng's condition has become serious again. If he continues in this state, I'm afraid he won't be able to hold on for long.
Finding them entering the house, Ku Xi opened his eyes at this moment.
"Lao Deng, your situation has become serious again." When he came to the wooden bed, Xia Sheng said with a worried look.
Ku Xing didn't answer, and stretched out his hand to take off the dark green bracelet on his left wrist:
"There is not much time left for me. These are the cultivation resources I have accumulated. Now they are all given to you...but there are not many resources left in them. These days have been basically consumed in your cultivation. What is left is still there. It can help you practice for a few days.”
Hearing this, Xia Sheng and Jiang Cheng felt uncomfortable.
They naturally knew Lao Deng's situation, and he was already approaching his end.
They usually joke and say that when Lao Deng passes away, the inheritance will be theirs.
But at this time, their hearts were full of reluctance.
"Lao Deng, how long can you hold on?" Xia Sheng asked with a complicated expression without taking the bracelet.
Check out the 16-9 book bar and see the correct version!
"I can persist for seven days at most, and the fire of my life will burn out... But before my life burns out, I still have one thing to do."
"Lao Deng, tell us if you have anything to do and we will do it for you."
After hearing this, a smile appeared on Ascetic's wrinkled face, and then he shook his head:
"I have to do this. You are my successors. You should not take risks with me."
Realizing that the asceticism was to kill evil spirits at the last moment of his life, Xia Sheng immediately said:
"Lao Deng, you have a good rest, we will kill Xie Sui."
"The purpose of building a ship is to sail, not to dock. I created the Touch of Pain to resist the invasion of evil spirits. My life is coming to an end, but I have never ridden it to ride the wind and waves. Now I want to try to control my ship. An old ship that is about to sink, I will do my best to drive away evil spirits and clear the darkness of my home world.”
As he spoke, Wu Xing's aura began to rise.
Qi and blood began to surge and burn, as if he was going to make a last ditch effort.
Seeing this scene, Xia Sheng and Jiang Cheng stopped talking.
They knew that blocking him at this time would not change the fate of the ascetic, so they might as well help him and let him fight heartily with the "touch of pain" he created with his own hands at the last moment of his life.
"Having carried the hatred of genocide, Lao Deng has been living in pain all his life. It's time to release his suppressed emotions." Jiang Cheng said on the voice channel.
"Yeah, we can't let Lao Deng die with hatred and pain. This battle is also a moment of revenge in Lao Deng's eyes. He may not be able to have much impact on the Black Tide's invasion, but at least he tried his best. ”
Wanting to understand the reason, Xia Sheng's eyes were wet, he reached out and took the bracelet from Ku Xing's hand, and said with a forced smile:
"Lao Deng, go ahead and have a good fight. Our brothers will take over your legacy. Do you have any last wishes before you leave?"
"Place a stone tablet for me in the cemetery in front of the Dayan tribe. May my soul return from the battle and be with my tribe."
"Okay." Xia Sheng and Jiang Cheng nodded solemnly.
"By the way...you must remember that the cultivation of painful touch is a long climbing process. Don't resist pain, but regard pain as a whetstone for your own growth and as nutrients. Only by accepting it can you climb higher. ”
"We understand... Lao Deng, how about we go with you, we are not afraid of death."
"No, this is my way home, I don't need to accompany you... You are really hypocritical. I chose you because of your strong willpower, but I didn't expect that you would be so sad after a mere separation of life and death."
Saying that, Xi Xing grinned and said:
"Go away, chase your own path, and contribute to my fight against the Black Tide in the future."
After the words fell, the aura on Wu Xing's body increased again.
Under the watchful eyes of Xia Sheng and Jiang Cheng, Ascetic's hunting level also increased.
The physical changes were even more astonishing. His eyes, which were once cloudy and tired, gradually became bright and sharp, and all the yellowish fuzzy substances disappeared.
Immediately afterwards, the sagging skin covered with wrinkles gradually regained its elasticity under the infusion of Qi and blood in the body, and its luster emanated from the inside out, as if time had never left any trace on it.
Accompanied by a crackling sound.
Ascetic's body made a sound like frying beans, and his body quickly rose.
The originally rickety figure became straight and straight, and the bones and muscles of the body were reshaped under the infusion of energy after the burning of Qi and blood.
As the body rejuvenates, every subsequent breath seems to induce the energy of heaven and earth to flow into the body.
The originally damaged body is revitalized by the burning nourishment of Qi and blood.
And quickly returned to near peak condition.
When Ascetic stood up, he had transformed into a young man of about twenty years old.
His handsome face is like a work of art carefully crafted by a sculptor. His face is clear-cut, with tight thin lips under the high bridge of his nose. His eyes seem to be filled with stars, deep and bright. The sunlight through the window shines on his skin. , reflecting a healthy wheat color, a tall and straight figure, smooth but not exaggerated muscle lines, and a head of messy black and bright long hair scattered on both shoulders, adding a bit of unruly and chic.
"Lao Deng, you're so handsome!" Jiang Cheng exclaimed at this moment.
"Your master, I was the most handsome man in the clan when I was young, but that is all in the past." A charming smile appeared on the ascetic face.
With that said, he opened the door and left the room. Xia Sheng and Jiang Cheng followed him out of the room.
"Lao Deng, just leave like this?"
"Our fate ends here. What follows is the last dance at the end of my life. You don't need to follow me."
With that said, Ku Xing turned around and glanced at Xia Sheng and Jiang Cheng, and couldn't help laughing when he saw the sparkle in their eyes:
"Don't be sad for me. I have already been prepared to face death. When I am dying, I can meet you two good young people and leave a legacy. This life is already worth it... Say goodbye to me. Remember to erect a monument for me. .”
After saying this, Ascetic turned into a bloody stream of light, flying straight into the sky and speeding in the opposite direction of the sea.
"Lao Deng, you are confused. There are evil spirits on the other side of the sea. You are flying in the wrong direction."
Facing the shouts of Xia Sheng and Jiang Cheng, the sound of asceticism came from the distance:
"There are no evil spirits in the evil moon realm there, they are just a group of derivative evil spirits. I am about to die, so I have to kill an evil spirit no matter what, hahahaha."
The laughter faded away, and the ascetic figure disappeared into the horizon.
Jiang Cheng and Xia Sheng looked at each other and couldn't help but sigh.
Xia Sheng whispered at this moment:
"Cheng Zi, you said this is just a game, why do we have such a strong sense of immersion?"
"I don't know. I'm also telling myself that this is just a game, but I still can't help but just want to shed tears. Lao Deng has been so good to us, so good that I can't bear to let him go." As he spoke, Jiang Cheng's eyes turned red. Wiped away a handful of tears.
"Let's go, find a geomantic treasure for Lao Deng and erect a monument. Let's kowtow to him a few times before we leave."
"No, Lao Deng is not dead yet. He must wait a few days."
"That's right. Then we'll stay for two more days and wait until Lao Deng is almost dead before erecting the monument."
"Well, let's stay for a few more days." Jiang Cheng nodded, then curiously said:
"By the way, how much legacy did Lao Deng leave us?"
Facing the inquiry, Xia Sheng lowered his head and looked at the space bracelet in his hand. After touching it with his sense of consciousness, the space inside the bracelet appeared in his mind.
The space inside is not large, and there are many spiritual plants and prepared spiritual liquids placed there.
Xia Sheng turned to look at the guidance water balloon floating beside him:
"Guidelines, calculate the value."
[All sacrifices including space bracelets are worth 133822 sacrifices. 】
After taking out everything inside and storing it in the space bag that comes with the system, Xia Sheng originally wanted to sacrifice the space bracelet to Di Zhao, but he paused after calling out the sacrifice panel, and then couldn't help but shake his head:
"What was I thinking just now? It's really an animal behavior. This is the last thought Lao Deng left for us. Let's store it in the space bag forever."
"Well, keep it. Maybe we can see Lao Deng again one day in the future and return it to him then." Jiang Cheng also nodded at this time.
"How did we meet?" Xia Sheng couldn't help but stare, as if he couldn't believe that such outrageous words came from his good brother's mouth.
Facing the inquiry, Jiang Cheng analyzed with a serious expression:
"In the game settings, the characteristics of Yuanchu are divided into ten generations. The weakest is the first generation, and the strongest is the tenth generation. Maybe the tenth generation of Yuanchu has the powerful characteristic of resurrecting life. When we return one day in the future, we can give it to Lao Deng. We won’t be able to see each other again until we perform a resurrection spell.”
Xia Sheng seemed speechless after hearing these words:
"Your hypothesis is indeed possible, but the problem is that we don't know where Lao Deng died. How can he be resurrected and cast resurrection spells in the air?"
"Fuck, it's true. How about we look in the direction where Lao Deng flew away? Maybe we can recover the remains of Lao Deng after he died in the battle, and put them in his space bag until we can find an opportunity to resurrect him in the future? ”
"Do you really want to do this? Lao Deng has suffered enough in this life. It is a good thing to be relieved quickly. Don't disturb the rest of the dead soul. Let him go."
"Listen to you."
"Then what do we do now?" Jiang Cheng asked curiously.
"Go to the Dayan Clan Cemetery ahead to find a geomantic treasure. It's almost time to dig a hole and erect a monument, kowtow and leave."
