Chapter 389 Statue of Order
After making an appointment with the Tyrant for the decisive battle, Mu You also needed to hurry up to prepare.
Then he went to Brand and told him that there were other traitors in the other party's clan.
In fact, Mu You already had some ideas about who the other traitor was, but he was not completely sure and needed further testing.
Mu You checked a lot of information about the blood clan members from Brand. These were all intelligence provided by the Wagro family, that is, the family that obtained three bottles of ancestor blood at the clan meeting before. One family built the most professional intelligence organization in the blood clan.
According to Brand, this family directly obeyed his orders and could be fully trusted.
Mu You and Brand secretly discussed for a long time and determined the plan until the decisive battle.
Today is Wednesday. At midnight that night, Mu You attended the secret art meeting as usual.
There were no other urgent topics in this week's meeting. The ownership of the major sky cities has basically been settled, and there is no news about the black magic club that Mu You asked everyone to pay attention to last week. So this week's meeting was just a casual chat, and the usual exchange of cards ended.
The only thing that worries people is that Jinniu didn't come to the meeting again. She didn't come twice in a row, which made everyone start to wonder if something happened to her.
In terms of cards, Mu You released a new card this week.
[Black Hole: A high-level black magic of the space system. It creates a space vortex at the target location, attracting surrounding creatures to slowly approach the center point. The vortex covers the range and blocks all spatial displacement and flight capabilities. Creatures that are pulled to the center point will suffer high space compression damage, which lasts for up to ten seconds and has a cooling time of ten hours. ]
This card is a black magic converted from the "space binding" obtained last week. It was originally a magic that instantly gathered monsters, but it became a group control spell that lasted for ten seconds.
Mu You has tried the specific effect of the spell. The radius of the vortex has reached 20 meters. Anyone within this range, whether enemy or friend, will be locked by the vortex and pulled to the center point at a speed of two meters per second.
During the traction process, the character can move normally, and even run in the opposite direction. However, no matter how you run, your feet will feel like you are stepping on a treadmill. The faster you run, the faster the treadmill will turn, causing you to stay in the same place. This is the spatial locking effect.
The only way to escape is to offset or even reverse the traction effect only when your movement speed is greater than or equal to the escape speed of the vortex.
Mu You also tested this escape speed, and the result was very outrageous. With the double agility of his vampire skin, he could not escape even at full speed, unless he turned on "Godspeed" to escape successfully.
In short, as long as this magic is turned on, people within the range will basically be firmly controlled for ten seconds, and during this process, the controlled person must struggle desperately to escape to offset the traction effect as much as possible, otherwise if he chooses to lie flat, he will definitely be pulled to the center point to suffer damage.
And this damage is also quite outrageous, 3000 points per second! You should know that there are very few space-related damage magics, and generally few people stack space-related defenses, so this damage is full damage in most cases. If it is stacked for a few seconds, most people will die on the spot.
In short, this is a very practical group control card.
After a transaction, Mu You exchanged a high-level curse magic from Capricorn, named "Unforgivable", which cast a black lightning and caused varying curse damage to a target.
The description looks ordinary, but the characteristic of this black magic is that its damage is directly linked to the negative emotions of the caster, such as anger, jealousy, resentment, etc. The stronger the negative emotions you have towards the target when casting the spell, the higher the damage of this magic. When the emotions are pure enough, the damage can reach tens of thousands or even hundreds of thousands of points, which is enough to cause an instant kill effect!
This is a magic with a very high upper limit, but it is a pity that negative emotions are not available when you want them. When you are in a good mood, this spell is too weak to scratch your itch. In short, this is a spell for revenge, and it must be powerful under specific circumstances.
This spell is useless to Mu You at present, but he still keeps it. In the future, he can pay attention to those props or talents that can change emotions and try to develop the potential of this spell.
In addition to exchanging cards, this meeting also briefly discussed the next things about Evernight City.
"Boss, does Evernight City need our help?"
The lion suddenly spoke when he heard that Evernight City was about to open.
"Do you mean to come in person?" Mu You looked at him.
"Yes, I went to Dark City to do a mission there before. It just so happens that the door of my accomplice in the Sun City will be cooled off tomorrow. If needed, I can go there to support at any time." The lion said.
"Of course it would be best if you can come." Mu You nodded. He didn't mind having more helpers.
"Okay, call me when you enter the door tomorrow." The lion put his hands on the back of his head and breathed a sigh of relief: "I left regrets when I fought for the Sun City last time. This time, I have to help our association to fight for it with all my strength!"
After the lion finished speaking, the virgin next to him also raised her hands and made some sign language to Mu You.
"The virgin said she can also go over to help."
Libra helped translate, then exchanged glances with Capricorn, then looked at Mu You and apologized: "We could have gone, but our door was just used last week and is still cooling down... Of course, it's okay to go over and help in the game."
"Ah, in the game, I can too..." Aquarius next to him raised his hand and whispered.
Then Cancer and Sagittarius followed suit.
"Okay, then come over if you're free, and meet at Dawn City tomorrow morning."
Seeing that everyone wanted to help, Mu You simply said. It would definitely be more convenient for everyone to go to the scene to help than the remote support of the Death Contract, and it would also save life.
"Not bad, not bad, this is the first time our association has fought side by side!" Leo was very excited.
"It was the same when we pushed the tower last time, right?" Sagittarius reminded him.
"There were too many people there, and we didn't even meet, so it doesn't count." Leo waved his hands repeatedly.
Last time was a nationwide collective mobilization, and they were insignificant in the crowd. This time was the real gathering of the Mystic Association alone, and it was the first time they met offline.
After some casual chatting, this week's meeting was spent in this relaxed and pleasant atmosphere.
At one o'clock in the morning, Mu You left the meeting, returned home, and logged into the game again.
[You appear in Dawn City. ]
[Dawn City has been upgraded to LV4, the population limit has been increased to 50 million, and the construction rights of the following buildings have been unlocked...]
After a period of material accumulation, Dawn City has finally upgraded to another level.
The residents of Dawn City received the news that the construction of the City Lord's Castle had begun yesterday, and they were all looking forward to the upgraded new buildings.
Mu You did not delay and immediately replenished the population, and then quickly upgraded the four attribute temples, training grounds, scarecrows and other buildings.
In addition, there are new buildings.
The Sky City upgrade building information that Mu You sent to the experts before was only for those below level three, and the plan they finally gave was only for routes below level three.
Mu You did not disclose the subsequent building information because after the city exceeded level three, it no longer needed help from outsiders.
The fourth-level main city is a very important watershed for all sky cities, because it marks that the construction progress of the sky city has officially entered the mid-term stage.
At the same time, the fourth-level main city will unlock a new building that is extremely important to the entire tribe: the statue!
[Statue: A giant statue built by the believers of a god to express their faith in a certain god. After building the statue, the residents in the city can choose to believe in the god, thereby obtaining the blessing of the god and opening the "hidden experience bar".
Whenever the believers reach the level bottleneck, they can store the subsequent overflow experience in the hidden experience bar. When the hidden experience bar exceeds the current experience bar by ten times, they can offer all the extra experience to the god in exchange for 1 point of "real experience" to help themselves break through the bottleneck and complete the evolution.
Note: Once the belief is chosen, it cannot be changed for life, and the creatures with existing beliefs cannot believe in other gods. 】
[The statue that can be built in the City of Dawn is: the statue of order. Do you want to build it immediately? 】
The statue, to put it bluntly, is a building that helps the tribe bypass the need for evolutionary potions and directly break through the bottleneck, and the price is: ten times the experience!
Ten times the experience is not much, but not too little either. It depends on the level of experience. For example, at level 10, the experience bar is 2560, and ten times is 25600, which is not a lot.
At level 15, the experience bar will become 81920, and ten times is 810,000+, which is a bit outrageous, but there is still a chance to achieve it through hard work.
At level 20, the experience bar will become 2.62 million, and ten times is 26.2 million!
Let alone ordinary people, even Mu You, who has many conveniences as a city lord, feels a black eye when he sees this number.
As for the 25th level, there is no need to think about it. The ten-fold experience bar is as high as 800 million+, which is an impossible task. If someone really has the ability to brush out so much experience, are they afraid of not being able to find a few bottles of evolution potions?
Of course, real experience can only be used to break through the bottleneck below level 20, so there is no need to worry about this. But even so, this thing is enough to make countless lower-class residents cheer, as can be seen from the performance of those ordinary players when they were brushing the Shadow God before.
And the statue is actually not only for fools. The major elves, dwarves, and even goblins all have their own gods, which is also the main way for the lower-class groups of various races to evolve.
On the contrary, several human countries in the Star Spirit Realm cannot break through in this way because they do not have a unified collective belief.
Of course, because the human race is popular with potion science, they can directly produce a large number of evolution potions, so they don’t need this troublesome way of losing sight of the main point. It’s just that the evolution potion formula was gradually monopolized by the Wizard Association, which led to the overall upgrade of the human race being stuck.
"Yes."
[The statue of order is being automatically built and is expected to be completed in one hour...]
Ordinary people don’t know the buildings that can be unlocked at each level of the city lord’s castle, and several city lords have not announced this information to the outside world. At this moment, there is a group of curious players on the forum, eagerly waiting for the latest building of Dawn City.
As Mu You clicked on "construction", all residents of Dawn City immediately received a game prompt.
After checking out the effects of the new building, there was an uproar on the forum.
"Real experience!! Real experience available to everyone!"
"Idol...is this a belief system?"
"Ten times the experience in exchange for a little bit? This is too much of a loss..."
"Loss? It would be nice to give you a chance to evolve!"
"Idol of Order, what does God of Order mean? So the gods that each city can believe in are still different?"
"Everyone is congratulating me. Last time I used the Shadow God to break through the tenth level. I was worried about what to do about the bottleneck of the fifteenth level. Now it's better. I have reached the fifteenth level!"
"Same as above, now the minimum is level 20! As for levels above 20, don't worry about it. That's the realm of the real bosses..."
"Is there a God of Love, or a Goddess of Luck? Someone who can let me go out and pick up money..."
"I would like to ask, what kind of gods are there in other cities? It seems that the belief cannot be changed. I feel that this thing is very important. I should carefully consider which one I believe in..."
"Holy shit, are you all serious? Ten times the experience. Level 15 requires more than 800,000! Just relying on a few hundred experience points in dungeons every day, how long will it take to grind?"
"It's only eight hundred thousand. As long as you have perseverance, you can always do it. It's better than being stuck and watching the loss of experience every day."
“I feel the same way, it’s great to have no bottlenecks to worry about!”
…
A group of Auroville players on the forum were discussing it non-stop.
Players in other cities are already crazy with envy at this time. Not long after Dawn City defeated Shadow God, something that breaks through the bottleneck is ushered in. Isn't it so happy?
It was only then that most people realized that there was such a thing as a god statue that could help the collective evolution of the group.
Fortunately, they don't have to envy this new thing. The idol can be built in every city, as long as it reaches the fourth level main city!
For a time, countless residents of outer cities began to bombard their city lords with private messages, strongly demanding that the city be upgraded as soon as possible.
In this regard, the city lords of each city are ashamed and helpless. The development of Dawn City is really far ahead. Other cities, even Dawn City, which is the fastest, have only just collected the materials to upgrade to a second-level city and a third-level city.
Solomon was originally hesitant about consolidating some defensive buildings and then upgrading them. But seeing how the people were urging them, he didn't dare to hesitate and hurriedly clicked the upgrade button.
As for other cities, not to mention, the progress is not as good as Dawn City. No matter how urgent it is, we can only wait.
While the forum was still hotly discussing the 'god statue', Mu You's attention had returned to the game.
[Biganhua summons the shadow of Death's skin in front of you. 】
[Are you sure you want to offer your life span to the God of Death? 】
This is a function in Lin Xue's God of Death skin. Outsiders can offer their lifespan to the God of Death to gain divine power. There is only one chance per week, and now the number has been refreshed.
"yes."
[Please enter the lifespan value you want to offer. Note that each person can only offer lifespan to the same god once in his life! 】
A text box pops up below. Of course Muyou entered 1000, and values below 1000 are invalid.
After worshiping the god of the dark elves last time, his lifespan was reduced to more than 700 years. Fortunately, he has a daily city lord salary and a contract with the ancient tree of knowledge, which brings him fifty years of daily income, and his daily net income is After more than a hundred years and so many days of accumulation, the life span has now reached 2572 years. It is still very easy to pay 1,000 now.
[You dedicated 1,000 years of life to the God of Death, and the remaining life span is: 1,572 years. 】
[You have obtained ‘God’s Power’*1, current God’s Power: 3 points. 】
3 points of divine power, respectively from the Shadow God, the God of Death, and the unknown god of the Dark Elf.
After getting the power of God, Mu You controlled the character to go to the dungeon.
There will be a decisive battle with Bloody Dawn tomorrow. He is currently at level 19 and still has 500,000 experience points left to upgrade. Mu You is preparing to level up within this day and break through to the next level before the decisive battle.
Five hundred thousand experience seems to be a lot, but he has now saved 18 double experience cards. When he brushes monsters later, he can multiply the experience by 19 times. In addition, the training ground has just been upgraded to level 4, and the experience value is * 1.4, so for what seems to be half a million experience points, he actually only needs to earn 19,000 experience points to reach the standard. Of course, it needs to be completed within one hour of the experience card, which is still quite difficult.
In order to gain experience as quickly as possible, Mu You did not bring teammates with him this time and went into the dungeon alone.
[You appear on the seventh floor of the dungeon. 】
[The surrounding roads that were originally blocked by crystal mines have been mined by others. You can follow the roads they opened. 】
The task of gaining experience this time is very heavy, and Mu You certainly has a clear goal.
In the past few days, the seventh floor has been explored by enthusiastic players. The various strategies on the forum are very detailed, but the location of the boss has not yet been found.
Before entering, Mu You read all the guides that should be read, especially the map of the explored area, and finally selected a monster spawning area located in the corner of the seventh floor: Killer Beehive!
Killer Bee Hive, as the name suggests, this area is occupied by a group of violent killer bees. This kind of monster is very difficult to deal with. Although it is only level 1, its size is small, and its health value is also very low, less than 500 points, it has 150 physical points. Defense, and an ability called 'Thick Shell Back Armor', which can withstand ten attacks when activated.
If it were just that, it would be fine. After all, it can be removed by ten attacks. The real problem is: when this thing is around the hive, it will be blessed by the aura of the queen bee, and when attacking, it will inject a kind of killer toxin that cannot be removed.
In addition, more importantly, they are in groups. As long as you attack any one, hundreds of killer bees will rush towards you immediately. It will take less than five seconds. The toxins on your body will be stacked to hundreds or thousands of layers, and then you will die quickly.
This thing is so difficult to deal with, coupled with the low experience value, it is risky to come to this area to spawn monsters, and the efficiency is low. Therefore, none of the exploration teams that have entered the seventh floor currently choose to gnaw on this hard bone.
However, this hard bone is an excellent place for Mu You to spawn experience. This kind of creature with low health but high damage reduction is the monster that God's power restrains most.
As for the problem of toxins and swarms, Mu You may have had some difficulty dealing with it before, but now that he has obtained the speed, the combination of speed and the Fool card makes this kind of low-level monsters in groups the most suitable monster for him to spawn.
