Survival Was Actually a Gal Game
[Su Luo: I'll go to Han Song's place to pick it up in an hour. You can trade there beforehand.]
A few seconds later, Su Luo sent a list of dozens of blue Skill Books, mostly Spell- related, covering areas such as Spell theory, elemental manipulation, and energy structure.
Most of these Skill Books were accumulated by professionals in Zone 76 during this period, with a small portion coming from lotteries. They haven't been used yet, and they're not in a hurry to use them.
Su Luo had already noted down the Skill Books she urgently needed, so as not to waste them.
[Su Luo: Let me trade these Skill Books over, record the contents, and then return them. Thank you for your help.]
Su Luo stepped off the experimental table, put the completed Xiao Luo back into the Dream World, and casually assigned it some new calculation tasks.
After doing all that, he finally looked up at the control panel.
[Spirit: 21.6 (↑0.2)]
[Constitution: 19.8 (↑0.3)]
It wasn't much of an improvement, considering the last improvement was just over a day ago. This 0.2 increase in Divine Power was only achieved by Xiao Luo squeezing out all her computing power, plus Su Luo digesting some of the two blue Attribute Skill Books for the Continued Battle.
One book is titled "[Advanced Theory of Mana Transmission (Blue)]", and the other is titled "[In-Depth Analysis of Mental Resilience (Blue)]".
The blue Skill Book is becoming less and less useful to him now, mainly providing new directions and expanding his knowledge.
The two books he redeemed from the Continued Battle Shop are already highly aligned with his development path. After fully utilizing them, he expects to be able to push his Spirit Attribute to around 22.0 at most.
There are three ways for Su Luo to continue to improve significantly.
First, continue to collect a massive amount of various blue- Attribute Skill Books, accumulating them little by little through sheer quantity. However, this takes time—waiting time and learning time—and the marginal benefit will decrease over time.
Secondly, he needs to create a revolutionary Attribute- based skill that can reach purple quality. His three-tiered spiritual Cycle structure is already extremely sophisticated, but no matter how much Optimization, the upper limit of its basic framework is fixed. What he needs is to completely break free from this framework and open up a new path.
Third, frequently Out-of-Zone Exploration and complete quests to "farm" Attribute Skill Books of purple quality. This is the choice of most top professionals in the future. It is simple and straightforward, but the risks and time costs are equally huge.
Of course, a few people's Talents can also boost their Attributes; I wonder how they manage to allocate those resources.
Su Luo chose to take all three paths at once, focusing on the first two.
Most people's base Attribute will be stuck between 21 and 22 for a long time, since Out-of-Zone Exploration takes a considerable amount of time.
That's why you see Song Shige running out without wasting a second.
With a sweep of his Divine Power, he took a previously discarded Mana Pool and Elemental Conversion device and placed it in the very center of the "experimental area." He set it to absorb free Mana from the environment indefinitely, convert it into high-purity Fire Element, and Storage.
This was the inspiration he gained from the Continued Battle. The incandescent Fire Domain Core that he had compressed and accumulated back then was extremely useful, whether for attacking enemy positions or as an experimental energy source.
By building a "large fireball" in advance in the experimental area, it can serve as a backup energy source and can also be used for high-energy experiments at any time.
After a moment's hesitation, Su Luo took out the [Near-Death Teleportation Ticket].
He did not choose to set the teleportation point within the experimental area—there was a possibility that he might blow himself up.
If the experiment were to explode one day, nearly killing you, and you were teleported back only to fall back into the blast center, that would be a real disaster.
Su Luo's figure flickered, and in a few breaths she had traveled dozens of kilometers, found a relatively open wasteland, and designated the Near-Death Teleportation location.
"Looking at the historical information on the World Channel, there are already 27 Forbidden Existence that don't seem human, revealed in the Continued Battle alone... This is a bit tricky. The next District War shouldn't be for another four weeks. How should we fight...?"
Su Luo stood in the darkness, surrounded by several balls of firelight, her brows slightly furrowed.
"Time, time! If only I could have twice as much time..."
He needs time. It takes time to digest knowledge, time to deduce new skills, time to explore areas outside the zone, and even time to conduct experiments.
The only instance with a different time flow rate is the Trial Instance. It would be great if, like the Forbidden Existence leaving the Dungeon, it could attach itself to Class Change and enter the Dungeon to get six times the time flow rate for free.
But the ideal is often far from reality.
Su Luo had already tried it, but it didn't work. Survivors can't possess other Survivors to enter Dungeons, not in any Dungeon.
The only remaining controllable difference in the flow of time is in his Dream World. After a period of continuous partitioning and structural adjustments, Su Luo has successfully divided the Dream World into thirty independent regions.
If only the time acceleration of the "Library" core area is maintained, the consumption can be reduced to one-thirtieth of the original.
Furthermore, with the enhancement of his own mental Attributes, the flow of time in the Library area can now be stably maintained at a terrifying level.
Seven times!
It can be Overclocking up to twelve times.
Damn, how can it be so low?
The higher the flow rate in the Dream World, the more terrifying the consumption. Su Luo did the math on the spot.
To reach the energy requirements of the Luther encountered in the first Continued Battle, who possesses the [Dream Game] Talent and has a time flow rate five hundred times faster...
Fixed Star- class?
No, no, that's not right.
Su Luo passed the data to Xiao Luo, and after calculation, they found no problems.
Looking at that energy requirement level, Su Luo remained silent for two seconds.
"Nonsense," he concluded.
There must be some crucial mechanism he's overlooked, or some core element he hasn't yet mastered—perhaps it's that platform connecting countless Dreamscape...
Su Luo's current Dream World is entirely sustained by his own Divine Power and Mana, and it is a self-modified, primitive "stronger bricks fly" mode.
It's not easy for someone who comes from a humble background.
"System, how about we discuss this... Could we get a Dreamscape- related Purple Skill?"
The updated World Channel is currently buzzing with activity.
A small flame icon has been added to the left of each message box.
The logo currently comes in three colors: a muted bronze, a bright silver, and a dazzling gold.
Bronze Badges correspond to a "normal" rating in the Trial Instance, Silver Badges to a "good" rating, and Gold Badges to an "excellent" rating.
Those who were previously considered to be in Forbidden Class but remained silent throughout have been exposed, and those who arrogantly called themselves "big shots" have been revealed...
Even anonymous comments are marked with this tag, which is quite ridiculous.
Furthermore, the filtering function allows you to filter information by logo color. Options such as "Only view Gold Badge" and "Only view Silver Badge and above" significantly improve information browsing efficiency.
But at the same time, it also brings a subtle... sense of hierarchy.
[(Silver Badge) I've discovered something shocking: the Survival System is actually a complete mystery! Everyone in the same area has a chat channel with a dialogue box, and I've been trying to figure it out recently.]
