Chapter 85: Raising Prices From the Ground Up
"Ah!" With a bang, I hit the ground below the Ring of Discipline. However, just after I landed, all the protoss immediately realized that something was wrong, because my body was obviously exuding extremely strong magic power fluctuations. Generally speaking, this situation is a sign that the magic is about to be completed. At this time, I was facing the ground. If I released the magic in this position, the result would be...boom. The fact helped the gods to directly answer this question. I saw a purple-red flash suddenly burst out from my body, and then the whole ground suddenly erupted like a volcanic eruption, and my whole body was directly hit by the reaction force. It was thrown into the air, and the protoss standing nearby did not run away. They were all burned to death by the flames flying in all directions.
Originally, it was said that the gods would not be afraid of ordinary magic, but the problem is that I have the attribute of divine suppression, so the magic released by me is not only indefensible to the gods, but also twice as powerful. This is why the gods present The reason why powerful people are so burned that they jump up and down. However, although the image was a bit embarrassing, none of the gods present were harmed. After all, it was not a magic attack on those guys. Even if they were hit, they would only have residual power. Naturally, it was impossible to do anything to these powerful people. But it’s just embarrassing to be done like this now.
When the gods finally escaped from the raging magic, I happened to fall from the sky waving my tattered wings still carrying flames. However, before the gods could ask me why I used magic to blast them, they saw me breaking out first. "Why is it you again? Didn't I already tell you? I won't take on your mission! Why don't you understand?" I said this and then looked back at the Ring of Discipline, which had not yet completely fallen silent, and then Said: "You actually used the Ring of Discipline. Do you know what I was doing just now? I was just completing a ninety-nine-ring continuous mission, and I am currently blocking the ninety-eighth ring. I finally knocked out the boss at the end of the level. I was ready to gather my magic power for a final blow, but you actually pulled me back! What do you mean by this? Are you deliberately trying to get in trouble with me?"
The gods who were originally angry at me and were planning to settle accounts with me didn't dare to get angry after I scolded them so much. Instead, they began to apologize to me in a low voice.
"Oh, I'm so sorry! We really didn't know that you were at such a critical moment, why don't we compensate you?" A protoss stood up and said.
"Compensation?" I glanced at the gods present with disdain and said, "What compensation are you going to use? After completing my ninety-nine series of tasks, I will get a super gift package, and the level of each link will be the same." You can get a piece of equipment, and it gets stronger as you get to the later stages. Although the boss in the ninety-eighth ring is not dead, he is already dying. He only needs the final kick, and you guys actually pulled it for me. I'm back! Do you know what the boss's prize is? You bunch of bastards, I don't want to get close to you anymore. This time I'm unlucky, so why don't I accept it myself?"
As I said that, I ran out. The protoss around me were originally very angry at being scolded by me, but on second thought they couldn't let me go, so they had to surround me again.
"Oh, everything is our fault. We will compensate you for whatever you have lost." A protoss said.
"It's just you?" I glanced at the gods present with disdain: "You can fall out with me for a small profit, but will you compensate me for such a big loss? I think it's better to forget it! You guys won't show up in a while If you can’t afford the price, you’re going to torment me again, so let me leave as soon as possible!”
"Don't!" Anubis quickly stepped forward and grabbed me and said, "It's their business to be stingy, but I'm very generous to you. Think about your death tattoo, am I a stingy person?"
I looked down at the tattoo on my arm and said, "Then what do you want?"
Hearing that my tone had softened, Ditans quickly pushed Athena who was still standing there and pushed her in front of me. Athena was also very helpless about being pushed out suddenly, but she knew to some extent what she should do at this time, so she just felt a little embarrassed and walked to me reluctantly.
"I'm sorry, I apologize. It was my fault before."
"No, no, no, it's my fault, it's my greed, it's my bad thoughts." I deliberately said something ironic: "I have figured it out now, don't worry about things that don't belong to you, so I decided to go back and be self-reliant. Go. Bye everyone."
"Don't!" How could Athena not know that I had not forgiven her when she saw this situation? Although it is embarrassing, but rather than being dressed up by the Russian gods and losing her life in the future, this face is really nothing now. "Don't leave." Athena hugged my waist and shouted regardless of the image: "Please, why don't we apologize? We will reimburse you for all your losses, and also compensate for your mental losses. , As for the battle agreement, can’t we discuss it again?”
"Huh, I can't bear it." I still didn't let go.
When Ditans saw this situation, he hurried over and said, "Forget it Ziri, let's all take a step back! Give us some face! At worst, we will give you enough benefits later, okay?"
After hearing what Ditans said, other protoss who had a good relationship with me also ran out to persuade me. Seeing them all say this, I knew it was time to give up. "Okay! Since so many of you have come forward to persuade me, I will reluctantly help you this last time because of your previous friendship with me. But I can make an agreement with you first. If you have the conditions I just promised, If I still fail to do the same, I, Lima, will withdraw from this world and come back when the plan of the Russian Protoss is over. By then, even if you use the Ring of Commandments, you will not be able to bring me back."
"Okay, it's a deal." Seeing me relent, the nearby gods quickly nodded in agreement. They didn't dare to do this again. If they had been more generous before, they wouldn't have ended up in this situation. Not only did they lose no face at all, but they didn't know how much more benefits they would have to pay. Anyway, it was probably impossible to solve this problem at the same price as before.
After agreeing to the gods, I followed them back to the previous conference room. When the door was closed again, I began to say: "First of all, in order to show my sincerity, I decided to temporarily cancel the transfer countdown of the Ring of Commandment, but if Our negotiations have broken down, and I will immediately restart this plan and no longer care about the Ring of Commandment." After hearing this, the gods quickly flattered me, but only they knew what they were thinking. However, I don't care what they think, as long as it's good for them, it doesn't matter if they scold me in their hearts? "Okay, now let's talk about my mission. How are you going to compensate me?"
"This is it." Taishang Laojun stood up first and said: "Since we are acting as peacemakers, we have to pay a little bit. We in Heaven will come up with a top elixir as compensation for this mission that affects the Purple Sun."
"Top elixir? What's its use?" I looked at Taishang Laojun and asked. It’s not that I don’t want to be more reserved, but there are so many types of elixirs in heaven, from Bigu Pill that can help you avoid eating for several years after taking it, to Wuji, which can upgrade a twenty-level newcomer to one thousand and twenty levels at a time. The magical elixir has many functions. If you don't ask clearly, just saying it is a top elixir will be too broad.
Taishang Laojun didn't seem to intend to deal with me this time, so as soon as he heard my question, he immediately said: "This time we are providing an innate wisdom pill."
"I've never heard of the name. What is it used for specifically?"
"According to what you adventurers say, this Innate Wisdom Pill is an experience-enhancing pill that can allow you to gain multiple times of experience within a period of time. What we provide this time is the most powerful type of Innate Wisdom The effectiveness of the elixir must be maintained for seven days. During this period, no matter what kind of creature you destroy, the experience gained will be increased tenfold. Adding the experience you originally gained, the total experience value will be eleven times."
"This value is quite a lot. Okay, I want this thing." I nodded and said that this thing is not bad, but I didn't mean to thank Heavenly Court much, because the gods in Heavenly Court are extremely unkind, and at this time, they actually Still thinking about playing tricks on me. To put it bluntly, this Xiantian Qizhi Pill is an experience pill, but at my current level, the fastest way to gain experience is to defeat the Gods, and now there is only one God that is suitable for my upright career. They are just Russian protoss, so Heavenly Court giving me this Innate Wisdom Pill is equivalent to 'forcing' me to find trouble with the Russian Protoss. Otherwise, this Innate Wisdom Pill will not be able to exert its full power in my hands, which is equivalent to a decline. Level one.
Although Tianting's motives are impure, with Tianting taking the lead, other gods will naturally not be too far behind. Both Ditans and Anubis knew that they would have to bleed some blood now. Who told them that they had a good relationship with me and had to act as the peacemaker just now!
"Our Dark Temple will provide Ziri with a super skill - elemental expulsion. This skill can expel one or several elements within a certain range at will, making all spells associated with this element invalid or less powerful."
The skill given by Ditans is a typical auxiliary skill, but although it doesn't look special, it is absolutely powerful when used. After all, legal professions are usually unlikely to be all elemental. Among them, they must be best at one or several types of spells. As long as I can expel all the elements corresponding to this elemental spell, then the opponent will have entered the realm of forbidden magic. , and a mage in a forbidden state is definitely not much better than an ordinary person.
After Ditans finished speaking, Anubis immediately continued: "We, the Egyptian Protoss, will provide an attribute - absorption. This is a skill that can operate automatically without being turned on. It can absorb the energy released by the opponent during battle. The free energy dissipated from magic can then accelerate your own magic recovery speed. If you are preparing magic, you can also increase the speed of magic release. The ratio of magic absorbed by this skill is 15%, that is, the opponent consumes 100 points of magic to release magic, then Automatically absorbs 15 points of magic power to provide to oneself. This skill can also gain blood-sucking ability during melee combat, and ignores the opponent's defense. As long as it is close to a certain distance, it will automatically start to suck blood regardless of whether there is a battle or not. The opponent cannot defend itself at all. Of course, the user can Automatically turn off the blood-sucking function. The normal absorption speed is ten health points per second. If the opponent's level is more than one thousand levels higher than the user's, the absorption speed is reduced to one point per second. If the opponent's level is more than one thousand levels lower than the user's, the absorption speed will be one point per second. Absorb one hundred points per second. In addition, this skill can also absorb the experience gained by the opponent after the battle. The absorption ratio is 10% of the experience gained by the opponent during the battle. If the opponent has not gained experience, it will not be fully absorbed. Here. How about it? Is this skill affordable?"
I nodded and said: "The compensation provided by the three of you is currently enough to compensate for my final mission reward, but what about the boss equipment I obtained in the 98th ring?"
"Let us provide this." The Olympus Protoss stood up and said: "As an apology, we are responsible for providing thirty star core fragments to strengthen your equipment. This star core fragment can be integrated with any defensive equipment. , the effect is to increase the physical and magical defense of the equipment, and there is a certain chance of auxiliary effects appearing."
I have heard of star core fragments for a long time and have used them before. That thing is indeed the first choice material for repairing equipment. Not only can it quickly restore durability, but it can also greatly improve the equipment's defense. Whether it is physical defense or magic defense, it can be doubled, and the effect is surprisingly good. However, corresponding to the extreme attributes of this thing is its extreme rarity. Even with our guild's contacts and financial resources, we have only collected a little over half a catty in total, which is less than 600 grams. look. Compared with this, thirty nemesis cores are definitely not a small number. Moreover, in addition to being used to strengthen equipment, this thing can also be used to feed magic pets, and it can be used for both physical attack and magic attack magic pets. Apart from the fact that the special type of magic pet is useless after being eaten, this thing can greatly enhance the attack and defense of the magic pet and all aspects of attributes. It is simply a panacea. Of course, generally speaking, no one except me would be so generous as to feed this thing to a demon pet. After all, the value is too high, and no one is willing to do this.
Seeing the compensation sent by the Olympus Protoss, I nodded and said: "Okay. Since you have given so many things, then this is the compensation for my mission. But, what about the cost of the previous apology? What are you going to do? Calculate?"
"This is easy to handle." The gods said: "Each of our gods basically has the ability to improve basic attributes. In a moment, each of our tribes will provide you with some basic attributes. What do you think?"
"How about the distribution of attribute points?"
"This, because we have different abilities, so even if you want to ask us to change, we can't change it. You can only improve the attributes that each of our families has that can be improved. Of course, if a company has multiple attributes, you can choose among them."
"Okay, you've passed this." I nodded: "Then the last item, the contracting war thing mentioned before, I don't care how you pay, but I must tell you first, all previous scores can only be counted as four points Three calculations.”
"What do you mean it can only be calculated by three-quarters?"
"That's the score I gave you for the things that were open to you. It was originally worth four points, but now it's only worth three points. It was originally worth 100 points, but now it's only worth 75 points. And you have to give me 100 million points."
"I..." Athena has a hot temper and will get mad as soon as she hears that I want to raise the price. Fortunately, the people around her react quickly and cover her mouth from behind before she can shout out. Pulled down.
"Hey, no problem, it's whatever you say." After pulling Athena away, the other Olympus gods expressed their indifference. Are you kidding me? Isn’t that enough? I don’t know how much the price will go up again. Just pay a little more for the benefits! It’s not a big deal anyway.
After the gods confirmed that they accepted my new price, I added again: "In addition, in addition to remuneration, you must also provide some powerful equipment or materials to help us win this war. Of course, war aid materials The consumables in the game will not be returned to you after the war, but the non-consumable materials will be returned to you after the war. So please don’t be too stingy with these materials, otherwise you will be the one to win this war. I can’t live with myself.”
Now the gods have made one thing clear, that is, without me, they can't defeat the Russian protoss, so now they have to listen no matter what I say. Besides, I'm just asking for a relatively low price, and it's not like I'm just paying for nothing. Giving more benefits can always achieve the goal, and this shouldn't be too much.
After I finished speaking, the gods began to count the open projects in their hands, and then calculated the scores. However, although the points needed to be converted this time, the guys gave the quotation much faster than last time, and it was done in less than ten minutes. In fact, it is normal to think that they are so fast. Last time, they tried not to give me those good skills and techniques, so they kept dismantling small skills. As a result, it took a lot of effort to get the points I asked for. But this time it was different. Because they had already prepared for bleeding in advance, these protoss colluded with each other to eliminate some of the attributes that might cause invincibility, and tried to pick up the remaining items with high scores. Open large skills. The points for these high-level skills are very high, so each company only produces a few skills to take up most of the points. The remaining fractions can be supplemented by randomly picking some small skills and that's enough points.
When I got the newly filled list, I saw that almost all of the checked ones were large-scale skills, and many protoss forces had also opened up some very important technical information. For example, the Olympus Protoss has opened to us research data on the technology "Advanced Anti-Gravity" used by large guilds. Although our guild also has this thing, the technical data is very imperfect, so it has never been able to be directly put into battle. At most, we can only create a turtle-speed mobile fortress like Essinger Mobile Fortress and an aerial train that cannot turn and can only be used as a transport aircraft. Use half-baked equipment.
In addition to technical information and various large-scale skills, the equipment provided to me by various protoss this time is also more than one level higher than last time. Many items look like high-end goods at first glance. Compared with the garbage in the previous artifacts, then It's like the sky and the earth.
After reading the list information, I collected all the lists, then nodded to the protoss and said, "Okay, the conditions this time are quite decent. But what are you going to do with the war supplies?"
Listen to me talking about war supplies, the gods did not behave abnormally. After all, they have just made it clear that these things are only borrowed and will be returned after the war, so these gods did not show any dissatisfaction. Moreover, they all know that the things they invested before were just benefits for me. Now these are the things that really matter to the situation of the war. So it is exactly the opposite of the things before. Now it is not that they don’t want to give it, but they are eager to give more. Good thing, this way the battle will be safer.
"Purple Sun!" Taishang Laojun said earnestly: "After you explained the reason clearly, we also thought about it. This war material is really important, and we also hope to provide you with more good things. It's just the Russian Protoss. That magic circle seals divine power, and our high-level magic weapons are actually based on divine power, so many of our things are likely to fail after that magic circle is activated."
Originally, I was counting on all the protoss to lend me their treasures to play with, but now it seems that I have kept things simple. The reason why high-level artifacts are stronger than ordinary artifacts is because they use divine power as the basic energy to operate internally. Therefore, even if the set functions are the same, they will be much stronger than ordinary equipment. But in this case, the advantages of these high-level artifacts have turned into disadvantages. When the time comes and the divine power is suppressed after being moved to the Russian God Realm by the Russian Protoss, these high-level artifacts will become inferior to ordinary equipment. In that case, it will be the same whether they are lent to us or not. Anyway, they will not have any effect. .
"If we can't use high-end equipment, how are we going to fight against the Russian protoss? We can't really compete with people, right?"
"It's unnecessary." Ditans stood up and said, "We have just studied it. Although we can't give you anything with divine power, some auxiliary items with special functions can play some role."
"What item?"
"Wait a minute." After Ditans said that, he reached out and drew a circle in the air, and then the circle suddenly flashed, revealing something like a whisk held by a Taoist priest. However, unlike the whisks used by Taoist priests, the handle at the back of this thing is very short and thick, and the whiskers at the front are not that long, and they are also messy. The overall look is a bit like hair loss. 'Feather' duster.
"What the hell is this?"
"This is the treasure of our clan." A guy dressed like a piece of rotten grass emerged from the pile of gods, and then explained: "We, the mud pot god clan, are good at using curses. This thing is our magic weapon. However, because our clan’s divine power is relatively weak, this magical weapon is not driven by divine power, but by magic power.”
"Powered by magic power? Does that mean it won't be sealed by the God Conferring Array?"
"Yes, not only will it not be sealed, but this thing can also interfere with the magic circle."
"Interfering with the magic circle?"
"Yes." The protoss explained: "This magic weapon is actually used as a defensive weapon in our clan. Its main function is to use it to contaminate other people's weapons. No matter how high-level the magic weapon is, as long as it is used by it If it touches it, it will lose its effect immediately.”
"What?" I was shocked when I heard the function of this thing. A magic weapon that can disable equipment, this is a super killer weapon! How does a player’s strength in the game reflect? It's nothing more than their own attributes, equipment, magic pets and combat consciousness. Among them, combat consciousness is a unique attribute of each person, and it will basically not change due to the game itself. Among the remaining three items, one's own attributes will only slowly increase with the level, and the acquisition of a magic pet They are all relatively difficult, but only the equipment is relatively easy to obtain and the most frequently replaced. But this broken feather duster-like thing in front of you actually has the ability to disable equipment. If you hold such a thing as a weapon in your hand, who would dare to compete with you? You will be beaten into a primitive person in just a few clicks. How many pieces of equipment can a normal person support playing like this?
Seeing my reaction, the other party quickly explained: "You are wrong, this thing is not that powerful. It cannot really destroy a piece of equipment, it just temporarily disperses the flow of power on it, making it lose its effectiveness for a period of time. .”
"You mean this thing has a time limit?"
"Yes. And this time is not stable yet. It mainly depends on the manufacturing technology characteristics of the opponent's equipment. Weapons that have been treated with anti-magic treatment have better resistance. If they are hit, some functions will be restored in a few minutes, and it will be restored within an hour. It can completely return to normal. If it is an equipment that has not been specially treated, it may be ineffective for several hours or even a day or two after one hit. However, the specific time depends on the internal magic structure of the opponent's equipment."
"I don't care about other things. I only know that this thing of yours can dismantle people's equipment." I nodded and said, "If you have such things, get more of them for me. Anyway, I will return them to you after the war."
Taishang Laojun said: "Of course we know this, but this kind of equipment that is not driven by divine power and has great effects is generally not used by the gods. It's really hard to be sure for the moment. I think it's better for us to Let's go back and look for each other. Don't make any appointments. Whoever finds it will come back first. The Russian protoss can do it at will, so we must do it as soon as possible. "
Because there was not much time, after the gods confirmed the deal with me, they left the City of Commandments and went back to find equipment. I myself began to arrange the defense of the City of Commandments. But what made me depressed was that, The previous drama really took up too much time. Not long after the gods left the City of Commandments, the entire City of Commandments suddenly shook violently, and all the creatures in the city with levels over a thousand levels stopped almost at the same time. In the end, I was the first to react. "No, the super magic circle of the Russian Protoss has been activated!"
