Chapter 87 It’s Time to Spend Money! Get Rich!
The first meteorite rushed downwards after entering the ground, while the second meteorite hit again near the first landing point with a deviation of several meters. Both meteorites penetrated deeply into the ground, but what happened next was dangerous. . The ground hit by the meteorite sank first like water, and then suddenly began to rebound violently, with mud flying out in all directions like splashing water. The underground impact formed a tsunami-like earth wave on the ground that radiated in all directions.
In the face of this terrifying shock wave, Warcraft is as helpless as the player. The shock wave moves forward along the ground, turning over the surrounding land. Most of the objects on the ground have been turned underground, and the soil layers dozens of meters underground was turned to the ground. Large swathes of mountains and forests in the nearby areas and more than a dozen cities were all submerged by waves of earth and turned into underground buildings. As for the players in the cities, most of them were naturally buried together.
Such a huge loss is actually a small problem. If it weren't for the resistance of the regional guards, the Lord of Light, and the mysterious forces, it is estimated that the meteorite would have destroyed the entire Europe. In fact, the speed of the two meteorites that landed was no longer very fast at that time, and most of the impact force was offset. Otherwise, what was stirred up at the moment of impact would not be waves of earth, but rain of fire all over the sky.
In any case, this leveling area is completely finished, and what remains is a large, smoking pit. No one could survive such a catastrophe, oh no, at least two.
After the impact, the area in the center of the crater had turned into a piece of black scorched earth, and the ground had turned into a black material similar to iron sand, and the temperature was quite high, otherwise there would be no smoke. There was a sudden movement in this scorched earth, and then a drop of silvery liquid suddenly appeared on the ground. As the liquid appeared, more liquid gradually began to gush out from below, and a small fountain seemed to appear on the ground. The silver liquid looks very viscous. But it is very flexible. The gravel separated to both sides under the pressure of the liquid, and then a hole gradually appeared. With the pressure of the liquid, the hole grew larger and larger, eventually turning into a large hole three meters in diameter. A pair of black wings suddenly stretched out from the hole, and then the wings flapped violently, and I, wearing armor, flew out from the ground holding Ling. The silver liquid on the ground quickly flew up and merged into my armor.
"What a huge area of destruction!" Ling sighed when he saw the surrounding environment.
I shook my head: "It's not big, right? Judging from the size of that meteorite, the destructive power shouldn't be that small, right?"
Ling looked at me suspiciously: "Do you want the damage to be more serious?"
"Of course not, I'm not two hundred and fifty. But this situation is obviously not a normal destructive effect."
"There may be something that resists the power of the meteorite." Ling boldly guessed.
"Maybe you're right, that meteorite was indeed blocked by someone. But at least I know we made a fortune."
"Huh?" Ling was still discussing the issue of meteorites with me, but my subsequent words had obviously jumped to other places. At this time, Ling couldn't understand why I put these two completely unrelated things into the same sentence. But when I turned her head in the direction of my eyes, she immediately understood what I meant.
"Crystal? No, it's a diamond!" Ling screamed.
I didn't waste time screaming, and opened the space door directly. Scott and the others were inside, and of course my Tyrannosaurus Knights. Seeing the situation outside, Scott was confused. But he also quickly noticed those diamonds, so he immediately ordered the Tyrannosaurus Knight to start rushing for luck without my instructions.
"Get rich, get rich." Falling back to the ground with Ling, I rummaged around in that area excitedly. Under the black gravel, there are a large number of diamonds buried almost as densely as stones. Diamonds in reality are generally transparent in color, but diamonds in the game can come in any color. The various diamonds on the ground are actually what are commonly called gemstones. Unlike mass-produced crystals, diamond-like gemstones can be used repeatedly. And they are extremely rare. They are not mined and sold in tons like crystals. These diamonds all appear individually. Although diamonds are not sold by the carat in reality, diamonds in the game are definitely not much cheaper. After all, this thing has too many uses, but its output is too little.
Our guild also has its own diamond mine, but the output is...! It's really scary to see them appear in clusters like this and pile up almost as soon as you shovel them down.
After Scott assigned all the tasks, he walked up to me and asked me: "How did this happen? Where did you find so many diamonds?"
"I honestly don't know."
Ling suddenly pulled me and said: "By the way, the map, the resource map, the map of our area, please open it and show it to me."
I took out the map from Fenglong Space in confusion. Work with Scott to open the map. Ling pointed to the map and said: "We are at this location. According to the areas divided on the map, we are in the Eurasian coal storage belt."
Ling's words made Scott and I react at the same time. People who have received modern education should be familiar with this. Scott and Ling now have real physical existences. The intensive education they received includes a lot of scientific knowledge, so Ling can think of this problem.
I was surprised and bent down to grab a handful of black gravel from the ground. These black gravels are actually more like gravel. Their volume is larger than gravel, and each piece is about the same size as a date stone. The sand shouldn't be such a big volume, it should be finer. Besides, black sand is not common. I picked up a piece of gravel from the handful in my hand. Then threw everything else away. Squeeze it hard and there will be a soft popping sound. The black gravel was crushed in my hands, and a large amount of black powder fell down, but there was a crystal object in my hand that was the same size as a normal fine grain of sand.
"Diamond!" Scott recognized the small crystal particles in my hand.
"Haha, what luck!"
The meteorite apparently hit the coal seam. What is coal? That's carbon. The composition of diamond is carbon, but it is arranged in a different form. Carbon can be naturally transformed into diamonds as long as it receives sufficient temperature and pressure and is isolated from air (mainly oxygen). The pressure and temperature when the meteorite fell were enough, there was carbon underneath the coal, and the air content under the stratum was almost zero, so the meteorite appeared in its current situation. I've encountered this situation once before in the game. At that time, all the diamonds that came out were ordinary white diamonds, and the output was very low. But this time, diamonds of all colors came out. Not only is the texture significantly better than last time, but the yield is also much higher. I guess the reason may be that the last meteorite was not strong enough, and this time this one was big and heavy enough, so it had such an effect.
The black ground under our feet is all coal that is about to form diamonds, but may not have completed the formation due to various reasons, so they all gathered into such lumps of coal cores. In fact, if you add more strength, you can turn it into a diamond. However, although not all of them turned into diamonds, at least some of them turned into diamonds, and they were so dense.
Considering that there are some small diamonds mixed in the coal, and coal itself is also a resource, I immediately decided to take the coal back and slowly sift through it. Although those tiny diamond particles cannot be used to set gems, they can be used as materials to release special magic, or simply make energy bombs for crystal chocolate.
Since the following items are so valuable, it's okay to have them snatched away from you. I immediately contacted Rose with a ring of love. The Ring of Love is restricted by the system, and people who do not truly love each other cannot apply for it, so very few people in the system can get this ring. On the one hand, many people are not sincere, and on the other hand, some couples are afraid that if their application is rejected, it will prove that they are not really in love, which will cause embarrassment. So there are not many people there. Just because it is rare, the Ring of Love is very powerful. Rose has been teleported back to China with Essinger, but the Ring of Love can still have conversations across regions and borders. I can even summon Rose here if necessary.
Get my description of the scene. Rose, a big money fan, immediately ordered Essinger to teleport back. Although the cost of this round trip is staggering, considering the value of these diamonds, there is no need to worry about the cost.
Essinger temporarily served as a mining base. A large amount of coal and diamonds were transported directly into the city. As long as the quantity reached the upper limit of one transmission, they would be transported once and sent to Steel City. There are equipment there that can process and screen these. Diamonds and coal are also energy resources there. Can be used directly.
We are very busy mining here, and Ashford is also busy there. This accident wiped out one of the enemy's elite troops. The remaining enemies realized that something was wrong and began to play desperate and risky tactics. Ashford had to cooperate with our guild's troops to start a melee with the opponent's main force. However, it seems that this battle will not be over for a while. It will take at least two days for Ashford to win the final victory.
Ashford and I briefly communicated with each other to exchange opinions. After the conversation, I saw that it was almost time to leave the mission, so I planned to log off, but I heard a system notification before I could log off.
"The Frost Rose Alliance successfully eliminated the encirclement and suppressed the enemy forces. It completed the 'sexual' battle victory. In view of the fact that the Frost Rose Alliance only used one-twentieth of the system's predicted time in the battle and basically annihilated all enemy units. The campaign is awarded a total score of five. Thousand points, the rewards will be calculated based on the accumulated battle scores after the battle."
Five thousand campaign reward points. This voice instantly stunned everyone in our guild, but a few seconds later, amazing cheers broke out. What is the concept of the 5,000-point campaign reward? In the just-concluded Battle of Fulcrum City, I took Essinger to fight so many interception battles, harassment battles, and even head-on battles, and I only got a total of 10,000 points in battle rewards. points, and this time it was only a stage victory, and he got 5,000 points.
Battle reward points are rewards for guilds, and what they ultimately transform into is definitely not as simple as equipment or experience points in player rewards. The city-level weapon below Essinger City is a system reward item. As long as the battle reward points are high enough, it is possible to get such a reward. Therefore, reward points are actually more important than any other campaign points, because they can obtain group-enhancing items for guilds that cannot be obtained by other rewards. Under normal circumstances, these items cannot be obtained unless you complete special guild tasks, and it is precisely because of this that they are particularly precious.
After the 5,000-point reward, another voice sounded, but this time only me and my summoned creatures could hear the voice.
"The player Ziri's demon pet Ling has outstanding performance in this battle. Completed large-scale guided attack magic and destroyed a large number of enemies. Now rewards the transcendence level improvement ability, allowing the demon pet Ling's level to surpass the owner Ziri, and can surpass level 1,000 The level cap limit continues to increase the level. At the same time, Ling is rewarded with a special skill - Guidance. This skill allows the user to call the magic power of friendly units within 200 meters around him to complete his own magic when launching magic. From then on, legion-level magic is officially open to players. ."
Guidance and legion level magic. What a terrifying thing! This guidance technique is actually a permission to use legion-level magic. To release this magic, there must be at least one person who knows the guidance technique.
Real legion-level magic has been used by some people for a long time, but that is the prerogative of NPCs, especially the temples of darkness or light, which they use most frequently. Players do not have the ability to use legion-level magic, although they know that this magic is very powerful. But if you can't learn, you can't learn. You can only watch NPCs perform gorgeous multi-person group magic. When using legion-level magic, a mage who knows how to guide will take the lead, and the other mages only need to stand aside and serve as magic batteries. The leading mage releases the guidance spell first, and the other mages cooperate to release their own magic. Then as long as the leading mage releases magic, its power will be equal to the sum of all the mages around him plus his own magic attack power, and it can also be adjusted according to the level of the guidance spell. Get a certain percentage bonus. Even the zero-level guidance technique is actually the effect of the total magic attack, if it is upgraded to the first level. The actual effect is probably the sum of the magic attacks of these mages multiplied by more than 110%. If you continue to upgrade, this ratio will continue to increase. It is said that the effect of the final level is to increase the power by ten times, which is equivalent to The mage group has become a super magic output machine.
Legion magic is released faster than individual magic. The power of magic is greater than that of single-player magic, and the proportion of magic consumed is relatively small (note that the proportion is not an absolute value). Except for the need for a mage who can guide, the other conditions are more powerful than single-person magic. This kind of magic is simply too valuable for everyone. Unexpectedly, Ling would be the first player to gain the power of Guidance. Although she does not enter the game as a player. But she is my demon pet. Opening this skill to her by the system is actually equivalent to opening this skill to players.
Before we could calm down, the system started again: "Reward the player with a Zirui special task scroll, and the task reward is the method of making magic pet equipment."
How to make magic pet equipment. Another super bonus! There are quite a few of my familiars equipped with equipment. Fortunately, as my first familiar, he has the equipment. Lucky has a dragon crown on his head. Because of this thing, he has double damage and double defense against ordinary dragons. Therefore, he will almost never fail in a battle with dragon clan members. Even dragons with a higher level than him would have a hard time fighting him.
In addition to being lucky, Yeying also has equipment. The saddle and reins on Ye Ying's body, as well as the pedals on his hooves, are actually magic pet equipment. Yeying's trampling damage comes entirely from the pedals on the hooves, and my riding speed bonus is actually due to the saddle.
In fact, in addition to Lucky and Night Shadow, there are many familiars with equipment. Ling's dark scepter, Xiao Chun's light staff, Jingjing's holy shield, Lingling's holy sword, Yeyue's headdress and six-handled snake body sword, Xiaofeng's gold anklet, crystal dragon crystal ball, steel teeth The claw sheaths, the red-feathered face armor, and the protective collars around the necks of the demon pets are all magic pet equipment, and each of them is extraordinary. Theoretically speaking, the owner has to find all the equipment for the familiar. These magic pets of mine bring some equipment with them because they are relatively different. Most magic pets have no chance to equip these rare magic pet equipment.
In "Zero", magic pets can greatly improve the player's combat effectiveness. Everyone knows this. Moreover, many players in the "Zero" forum directly stated that the combat power of the beast tamer profession is quite abnormal if the magic pets are full, so that many people think that the beast tamer profession is a profession that destroys the balance. Many people feel that these tamers With a complete magic pet, a beast master can completely achieve attack and defense and be invulnerable to water and fire, but in fact this is just a small group of people deliberately causing trouble for some malicious reasons. As a general profession, the beast tamer is a profession that can be chosen without special rewards. However, there are very few beast tamers in the game, which can be seen clearly.
If a profession is so powerful that it destroys the balance, why don't players choose it? Three major reasons. First, the magic pet. Second, the magic pet. The third one is the magic pet.
It is impossible for a beast tamer in the early game to have a magic pet with him, and even if he gives you a magic pet egg, you would not dare to use it. Once a magic pet is confirmed to be lifelong and cannot be changed, and the amount of the magic pet carried is so important, who among the early animal trainers is willing to bring a low-level pet to occupy the position? But if you don't bring it, the problem will be obvious. I got into it because I have two professions and a lot of incentive points. How do ordinary players survive the junior level? There is definitely no hope in hand-to-hand combat. This profession is not a close combat profession. Pretending to be a mage? This seems promising, but in reality it still doesn’t work. The beast tamer relies on his magic pet to fight, and he is responsible for using auxiliary magic to maintain the status of his magic pet, so the magic attributes are all biased towards the auxiliary type. It is not that the attack type cannot be learned, but if you really learn it, don't expect it in the future. Get ahead, because skill points are limited, and giving this and that won’t be enough. Therefore, it is difficult for animal trainers to get ahead. The beast tamers we see now are either trained by someone from the beginning; or they are bonus accounts with dual professional backgrounds. They use another profession to level up first, and then upgrade their beast taming skills; otherwise, they sacrifice their numbers to bring pets in advance. Or learn attack magic, that's just for fun, don't expect to get ahead in the future.
The growing pains are secondary. After all, the method of finding someone to guide you is relatively simple, and most people can do it. The key problem is that magic pets are hard to find, and good magic pets are even harder to find. If the level is too low, you won't want it, but if the level is too high, you won't be able to catch it. If you collect the magic pet early, you will be afraid that you will regret it if you find a good one later, and if you collect it late, it will be difficult to develop in the period before, which is really painful.
In addition to the above two issues, there is also a joint issue. This problem is still a question of the number of familiars. On the surface, magic pets are very powerful. If you bring a few more, you can easily defeat others. However, the amount of magic pets carried by a beast tamer is astonishing. Pay attention to how powerful the beast tamer is. However, the actual situation is that magic pets are very rare. Most people are not satisfied with the amount of magic pets they can carry, and animal trainers are even more dissatisfied. Under such circumstances, the carrying capacity advantage of the beast tamer is often not shown, and instead becomes a useless and useless profession.
Because of the rarity of this magic pet, without changing the amount of magic pets carried and obtaining new magic pets, magic pet equipment that can improve the combat capabilities of the magic pet has become the most desired thing by players. Compared with the various equipment used by players, the attributes of magic pet equipment are often more useful, and the attribute bonuses are very exaggerated. Almost every piece of magic pet equipment is top-notch. Which player doesn't want it?
If I can make magic pet equipment after completing this task...? Hehe, just wait and count the money then.
The above awards are actually all awarded because of Lingcai. There are not many projects but they are of great use. After the system finished handing out Ling's rewards, it started handing out my rewards again. The first sentence almost made me faint.
"Player Ziri successfully eliminated a German area guard in this battle. His performance was extremely outstanding. He will now be rewarded with a mysterious task such as a special lottery, and the difficulty of the task will be reduced to an advanced task level. The prize remains unchanged."
I don't care whether it's a mission or not, the key issue is guarding that area. When did I kill the area guard? After much deliberation, I still can't figure out what's going on. Is there something wrong with the system? impossible! There is no reason for such an obvious thing to go wrong!
