Chapter 1482: Divine magic loophole, priest inheritance!
Belief outside the world.
As the gambling battle officially started, the small-scale conflicts between humans and aliens, as if driven by the undercurrent on the eve of the storm, became more intense and frequent.
However, even though the tense atmosphere was so intense that it almost condensed into substance, until the fifth day of the gambling battle, the two sides still miraculously maintained a delicate balance and did not allow the conflict to escalate further.
There is no other reason.
Whether they are humans or aliens, they are all waiting for the game to announce the real-time data in the gambling battle.
As long as you can have a clear advantage in the gambling battle, you will naturally get a doubled morale boost in the outside world.
But if you see this data after the war begins and find that your side is at a disadvantage, it is very likely to cause a devastating defeat and trigger a great rout.
Eastern New World.
The Palace of Foreign Races Gathering.
Yin Yuan closed the game panel, retracted his gaze, and looked towards the shadows inside the room.
"According to your design, as long as the human Soma enters the gambling space, he will inevitably choose to follow the path of gods, and will eventually be firmly bound by our rules." His voice was low and magnetic, Every word betrays unquestionable confidence.
“I have to remind you, it will be a critical moment to verify whether your design can be successful!”
Giggle.
As soon as he finished speaking, several cold and strange laughter immediately echoed in the shadows, like the low cry of a night owl, which chilled people's hearts.
"Lord Yin Yuan, we never said that we can deal with Somo now, and we don't believe that these ambush at the beginning will bring Somo down. After all, what kind of threat is he? You aliens should be better than us humans. It's much clearer, but..." The voice in the shadow deliberately lengthened its ending, revealing a hint of cunning.
"But what?"
Yin Yuan did not get angry, and his reaction was so calm that he seemed to have been used to the other party's response.
In the past few months of dealing with humans, the other party has indeed proved its ability with some practical actions.
And now it’s time to reap the results. Only then do I start to question, why did I go there so early?
"But the ambush we designed is always useful. Even if we can't cause him big trouble at the moment, we can use the data released by the game to deduce his current predicament. As long as there is no problem in this step, then he will definitely He will fall into the trap we prepared step by step and die."
"Oh?"
When Yin Yuan heard this, a meaningful smile appeared at the corner of his mouth.
His huge body also rose and fell gently with his breathing, constantly sucking in the surrounding airflow, creating waves of tiny wind whirlpools.
"It sounds good. OK, I hope you can give me a good explanation when the data is released."
Soon, the time came to eight o'clock in the morning.
Several humans in the shadows immediately opened the game panel and began to carefully examine the data released by the game.
Since this battle of faith will not be broadcast live to the outside world, the data are all in text form.
The centimeters are divided into three lists:
Strength list.
Tribe list.
Faith list.
The strength list refers to the magical rank that players are currently in after acquiring magical talents.
The tribe list is the size of the tribe that the player belongs to, sorted by size, and only records the tribes that the player controls. If you just join this tribe, you will not be on the list.
The final belief list is more complicated, requiring players to take root in the world of belief and create their own beliefs.
The ranking is determined based on the number and quality of believers.
As for the current strength list, the human column is indeed empty.
Five days have passed, and still no one has obtained the magical talent and is qualified to participate in the ranking.
Looking at the foreign race, the list can only record a thousand people, and they are all filled up.
The strongest person has reached the eighth level priest, and his progress is far beyond that of humans.
"Hahaha, it seems that my king's choice is indeed right. Human beings have no magical talent at all. Even Somo has not been able to obtain the blessing of talent for such a long time!" Yin Yuan was immediately overjoyed.
And when I moved to the second tribe list, I saw Somo hanging alone on it.
"How arrogant, I didn't expect that he would dare to step into the trap we prepared!"
Yin Yuanfu put away his smile again and couldn't help but snorted.
"How about it, now he has entered the trap you prepared, right?"
"Yes, our most important plan was successful."
It can be heard that several humans in the shadows secretly breathed a sigh of relief after reading the data.
What they were most worried about was that Soma would not play his cards according to the routine and give up on choosing the path of the gods.
No matter how many killing moves they arrange later, at the critical moment, if Sumo chooses to surrender and withdraw, then the plan will be regarded as a complete failure.
"The next step is to face difficulties step by step. When he realizes that things are irreversible, he can't escape even if he wants to!"
Faith in the world.
Fire Fist Tribe.
Realizing that he had finished displaying his magic, Soma fell into thoughtful silence.
Thomas paused and said loudly: "If the patriarch has any doubts, you might as well tell them all. Old man, I have traveled a lot in the wasteland in my early years, so maybe I can tell you something."
A sad reality that we have to face squarely.
In total, Sumo is already the thirteenth clan leader of the Fire Fist Tribe.
And Thomas is the second priest of the Fire Fist tribe. He alone defeated seven tribe leaders.
“Well, I was thinking that since the level of the priest is affected by the number of times the magic is released, then we humans have not developed a ninth-level magic that can be released many times a day to quickly Upgrade?”
Suma captured the problem of this system.
Using the number of releases to divide strength is indeed a simple and crude method of division.
As long as it can be ensured that the divine magic possessed by humans can be controlled no matter how it is combined or how many divine minerals are used to increase the number of releases in a single day.
In such a year, absolutely no player will be able to upgrade their level to a high level, and it can also be guaranteed that the strength structure of the world at the beginning of the structure will not be affected and change.
However, this crude approach also leaves an obvious loophole.
What if humans mastered a magical technique that could be released a hundred, two hundred, or even a thousand times a day?
Maybe the power of this divine spell is very small, and it is not even combat-oriented, but the level increase of the priest does not mention any restrictions on the power or type of divine spells.
As long as the magic has gained a level, it will all be included in the number of times the magic is released.
Mastering this method, even if there are not enough divine mines, is still equivalent to having the ability to mass-produce high-level priests. "Uh" Thomas pondered for a moment.
"Chief, I have indeed heard of the magic you are talking about, old man. It is rumored that in the rare cracks, those large tribes with hundreds of thousands of people have many in their hands. A kind of basic magical technique. Although these magical techniques are of low level, the number of times they are released per day is ten times that of magical techniques of the same level!"
"Then why are they not willing to share them with other humans? ?" Su Mo said in surprise.
Considering the current situation of human beings in the world of faith, only by allowing more people to become priests and increase their strength can humans get out of the radiation cracks and kill the black disaster monsters.
“It’s not that we don’t share, but that the cost of sharing is too high.” Thomas shook his head and sighed.
"Patriarch, do you know how the parchment roll I gave you was made?"
"Parchment roll"
Suma pondered.
That parchment really didn't look like a mortal thing, and it didn't look like something a small tribe like Fire Fist could possess.
“From the very beginning, the divine skills mastered by the priests were rewards from gods and were not discovered by us humans. Therefore, due to this restriction, we priests cannot tell other humans through oral transmission. The specific content of the magic is not enough, even if the other party is also a priest."
"So everyone had to find another way to pass it on, and finally found the only way, which is to use a special method to control oneself before death. The magical arts are engraved on the carrier, so that later people who gain magical talents can read the carrier and try to learn these magical arts."
"However, let’s not talk about the success rate of burning with this method. Success, the number of times the carrier can be read and learned is also fixed, depending on the strength of the priest. The parchment in our hands will be completely ineffective after being studied by three people."
"Well. ? Is that so? ”
Su Mo couldn't help but feel shocked.
Designing human beings in a world of faith is truly exhaustive, and even this point has been fully considered.
If the inheritance of divine magic can only be obtained by the death of the old person and the new person, then the number of priests is actually fixed!
Even the human players who entered the world of faith received three kilograms of divine ore, held a prayer ceremony, and obtained magical talents.
There will also be a group of people who may have talents that cannot be practiced and used because they have no place to obtain the inheritance of divine magic.
"Too cruel!"
Sumo couldn't help but improve his previous evaluation of the designer by one point.
But what Thomas said is not all bad news. For example, this kind of magic that is of the same level but can be released ten times as many times does exist.
Since it exists, can we directly use the system to upgrade it and create an experience-earning magic spell exclusive to the Fire Fist tribe?
The dilemma we are facing now is that Shado, the high priest of the Benlei tribe, is too strong.
But as long as Thomas' strength can be increased to the same level as Shado, or even stronger than Shado, wouldn't the current predicament be easily solved?
Thinking like this, Sumo suddenly couldn't help coughing twice and felt a tightness in his chest.
Uh-huh.
Got a cold?
Feeling something strange coming from his body, Sumo felt helpless.
The people who designed the gambling space brought the physical fitness of all participating players back to their original shape, which undoubtedly increased the threat of nuclear winter.
But having said that, it is quite impressive that a body that has been restored to its original shape can endure a four-day trek in low-temperature weather.
Keep all your thoughts in your stomach for now.
After telling Thomas that he would find a way, Somo strolled around the Fire Fist tribe.
There are a total of sixty-seven houses used to live in the tribe.
Most of them are simply built with simple wooden boards, bark, and animal skins. The roof covering is thin, and the corners will lift when the wind blows.
Many of the houses are empty and have been temporarily requisitioned by the tribe and turned into debris warehouses. You can tell from the dust covering the debris that the owners have not been back for a long time.
Walking on the tribal trails, Soma could see that the residents tried every means to make up for their material scarcity.
The shabby clothes have been mended repeatedly, and they have long been unable to recognize the color they were before.
The women wore large, ill-fitting shoes and walked crookedly.
A few men sitting outside the house were making daily necessities from discarded metal fragments and old wood collected from unknown sources.
"Patriarch, wake up. Yesterday's candy was so delicious!"
"Patriarch, patriarch, when can we get candy like that again?"
"Chief, are you able to be a priest now?"
"Chief, look at the weather this year, the food harvest is not optimistic. What should we do?"
< br>
"Chief."
Suma walked by, and the men and women in the tribe immediately came up to him, showing no restraint at all.
Perhaps it was because everyone did not know that the food was about to run out. To the naked eye, Sumo felt that the mental state of these people present was healthier than that of the survivors of three years in the wasteland outside.
Is this the power of faith?
Thinking like this, Somo quickly walked to the most important place in the entire tribe.
greenhouse.
“Patriarch, why are you here so late?”
‘Nong Cao’, a devout believer in charge of taking care of the greenhouse, came up to him, his dark face still stained with mud.
Behind him is an oval yurt, about four times the size of an ordinary house.
With the heating tower providing heat, the plants in the greenhouse grow very slowly and are an important source of food for survivors in the world of faith.
"Are you still taking care of the farmland so late?"
"Hey, I just dug out a batch of potatoes. Although they are a little small, they can always fill my stomach."
Nong Cao smiled naively. Then, he pushed open the greenhouse door and Sumo walked in.
The smell inside is not pleasant. The dung buckets used for fertilization are placed on the right side of the entrance. There are four large buckets.
But in this environment, no one cares about whether it smells or not.
Sumo lowered his body and picked up a potato from the pile of potatoes dug by the farmer. It was about half the size of a fist.
“We plant early-maturing varieties, and it only takes about fifty days to harvest.”
“Only potatoes?” Sumo raised his head.
“Currently we only have potatoes. We used to grow wheat, but the last time the Benlei tribe came to plunder, they not only took away our flour, but also took away all the seeds.”< br>
Potatoes alone are not enough
Although potatoes contain more starch and dietary fiber and are good carbohydrates, human survival requires a large amount of minerals and vitamins, as well as dozens of different amino acids.
Unable to obtain it from food, the body will become thinner and thinner.
Before entering the gambling space, Sumo also put a lot of high-yield disaster-resistant seeds that had been improved several times in the Tianyuan territory into the carrying soul disk just in case.
But distant water cannot quench near thirst. The key now is to overcome the upcoming difficulties.
