Temporary Constitution, Points Soar!
In ordinary games, lower-level players often have a level advantage when killing higher-level monsters.
For example, damage may be reduced, hit rate may be reduced, or even if the level difference is too large, the damage may be reduced to 0. This is to prevent players from relying on numbers and resurrections to force a little bit of damage to whittle down the monster's health and kill it.
Ordinary Player don't have the time or energy for this, but studios that focus on making money and operating can do it. After all, they can kill high-level bosses at low levels and sell the equipment and items that drop for a high price.
Of course, if your attributes are far superior to those of the monster, then level advantage won't work.
Gao Linzhi is an example of this.
He had been constantly grinding against various high-level bosses.
His high noble rank also greatly increased the drop rate.
Now, Gao Linzhi is simply replicating this process and expanding its scope.
Simply Farm BOSS is clearly not enough to level up the "Life Steal" talent.
On a stretch of sea, Gao Linzhi was brushing swordfish.
These swordfish are really unlucky. Because of their large numbers, rapid reproduction, and the protection of the seabed, they are not easily killed by other hunters.
It's also of a high level.
Therefore, it has become a favorite among many daring players.
Gao Linzhi fought his way through like this.
I spent two weeks refreshing it.
If it weren't for the fact that he could only play the account himself, he would have hired a power-leveling service.
Fortunately, he also has the automatic monster-farming function, Noble Privilege; otherwise, he would have been exhausted to death.
As for the so-called honey trap used by the other party, the innocent-looking girl Qin Qin has already settled down in East Wolf Village.
If it were an ordinary young man who had already achieved success, he would have already resorted to various means by now.
However, Gao Linzhi completely forgot about her.
This is, of course, because he is concerned with Immortality and has the world in his heart.
Compared to Immortality, compared to the universe, what are beauties, powerful figures, or live-in sons-in-law? They are nothing but dust.
He never took it to heart.
Soon, the news reached Island No. 8.
When the veteran players on Island No. 8 learned that their elaborate honey trap had failed, they were immediately taken aback.
"Strange, why is he completely unmoved?"
"That's impossible. He's a man. We've checked that. There are still many subtle traces of him passing through his old home."
"Damn it, this isn't right. Every man who becomes stronger goes on a wild party."
"Yes, those ancient generals, once they rose to power, would inevitably take a lot of concubines, and the same was true for emperors."
Why is he an exception?
"This isn't right!"
"Isn't he interested in women?"
"It can't be that bad, considering the evidence we collected before didn't say that."
They were utterly shocked.
It's worth noting that this tactic of theirs is almost always effective.
They have almost never lost against newly emerging players, especially men.
This is a weakness of human nature.
Many men who pride themselves on being heroes end up falling for the allure of women.
This time, they went through great lengths to select someone who best suited their needs.
But it was shown to Blind Man.
That's hilarious.
Everyone fell silent.
"Could the other party really be the kind of person whose will is unyielding?"
"I think it's because there are still significant threats from the external environment that he doesn't dare to indulge himself."
"Yes, just like Zhuangzong of Later Tang. He was brilliant and powerful in times of crisis, but as soon as things improved, he immediately fell from grace."
"A legendary general, who repeatedly triumphed over powerful adversaries, ultimately died at the hands of a group of actors."
"It seems we need to create an environment where he feels very safe."
"Yes, only in this way will the other party fall, only in this way will they become the kind of person we want them to be."
"Hahaha, how could a newcomer like him know our methods?"
Gao Linzhi was unaware of these matters.
If he knew, he wouldn't laugh at these people's ideas.
A flock of crows plotting against an eagle may seem ridiculous, but in reality, eagles are often preyed upon by crows due to old age and disease.
The mighty Xiang Yu, who dominated throughout history, was dismembered by a few low-ranking officers, thus beginning a wealthy and powerful family that lasted for hundreds of years.
He simply noticed that the environment on Wolf Snake Island had been gradually improving recently.
Many of the previous targeted measures have been cancelled.
For example, the offline gold lock-up is no longer in effect.
Other cities no longer have laws restricting the purchase of gold by people from the Four Village Trading Company.
Of course, everything is based on market prices.
If others are unwilling to sell, families in other cities will not interfere.
You can set any price you want.
Bored, I reported to Gao Linzhi:
"Boss, several people from powerful families have spoken with me privately, saying that the heads of the families have come to their senses and don't want to offend you."
"They thought that rather than both sides suffering losses, it would be better to compromise, since no one could guarantee what items were actually available in the game's store."
"If an item that restores youth or Immortality were to appear, they would still expect you to buy it."
Gao Linzhi nodded; that made a lot of sense.
However, this does not align with the mindset of those in positions of power.
Just like ancient feudal emperors, they clearly knew that doctors and medicine were very important, and that their children, wives, parents, and even themselves all needed the great development of medicine and Gao Ming doctors.
Unfortunately, they were relentlessly entangled with the ugly devil of imperial power, repeatedly committing acts of torturing and murdering doctors and suppressing the development of medicine.
The reason is simple: they are arrogant and make all sorts of unreasonable demands on doctors, and if they fail to meet these demands, they often resort to punishment.
Doctors are never given a relaxed research and treatment environment. When doctors come to see Noble Personage or important person, they have to kneel down and be extremely careful.
In this situation, which doctor could possibly develop a groundbreaking solution?
The most typical consequence was that the Imperial Medical Academy never treated serious illnesses; the medicines they prescribed were mild and predictable, with no significant effect, but also unlikely to cause any problems.
The problem is that the royal family members who came to see the doctor were already seriously ill. If you prescribe starch pills, it will only treat starvation.
And that's when a really awkward thing happened.
The royal family, who most needed doctors, became the force that most suppressed the development of medicine because if there were a throne to be inherited by a healthy child.
The top executives of these companies and powerful families are now like emperors.
They clearly needed Gao Linzhi's Pay-to-Win Talent, but they were unwilling to let Gao Linzhi, a casual player, benefit so much. What they wanted to do was to control Gao Linzhi through marriage and other means, turning him into a laborer working for them.
They were also worried that Gao Linzhi was becoming too powerful and would overthrow their position.
But Gao Linzhi just wouldn't have any of it.
Now, with Wu Liao saying they're willing to compromise, Gao Linzhi is even more convinced that these people have new schemes up their sleeves.
But it doesn't matter. As long as he continues his upward trajectory, he doesn't need to worry about these self-righteous fools.
Looking at the time, the physical fitness ranking competition is about to end.
Gao Linzhi glanced at it; he was still at the top of the list.
The total points are 542,000.
The second-ranked player is Empty 2086, with 320,000 points.
This guy had tried to steal from Gao Linzhi before, but he failed.
It spiked again this time.
This definitely put pressure on Gao Linzhi.
The main problem is that the online store is not performing well!
It doesn't demonstrate his ability to spend money on in-game purchases.
He checked the time; there were only three days left.
So he made another suggestion to the game AI:
"Can't your event store be a little more competitive?"
"Give me several items that cost tens of millions of Skyfall Stone to buy!"
"It's going to boost my physical fitness!"
"Dear VIP 25 players, the relevant benefit activities are being launched after our developers' hard work."
"The promotional event is: Recharge 10 kilograms of gold to receive 10 points of physique."
"However, this constitution is temporary and can only be used for 48 hours."
I took the test, and it was a temporary physical condition test.
Regardless, as long as I can accumulate points, that's fine.
After all, points can be exchanged for Revival Stone.
"Damn, that's way too expensive! Ten kilograms of gold for ten points of temporary physique for 48 hours? That's like exchanging money for points!"
"Dear VIP level 25 players, this is a special benefit event launched for players with VIP level 20 and above."
Gao Linzhi understood what the AI meant—this was it; most people couldn't afford to spend it even if they wanted to.
He decided to go for it.
Temporary physical conditioning can actually be useful.
You can take this opportunity to take down those high-level bosses.
It may seem expensive, but ten kilograms of gold isn't expensive at all if you master the entire process of gold mining, smelting, and refining.
This game is really clever.
Fortunately, only I was able to recharge; otherwise, I don't know how high gold would have been driven up in the offline world.
One kilogram of gold can be exchanged for one point of temporary physical enhancement.
Gao Linzhi glanced at the score difference on the leaderboard.
He felt that someone below would try to steal from him at the last minute.
Since that's the case, then recharge 1 ton, which will give you 1000 temporary physique points.
Gao Linzhi called Wuhu and wrote another receipt, specifying that he would take away one ton of gold and at the same time hand over a batch of resources obtained from defeating Farm BOSS.
He wasn't like the Jiajing, who only spent money and never brought in any, leaving every household impoverished.
Then a ton of gold was extracted.
Then Gao Linzhi rushed straight into the game.
The next moment, 1000 temporary physique points were credited to my account.
Without hesitation, he added the physique points directly.
And just like that, his ranking points instantly soared to 1 million!
It jumped to 1,542,000 points in one go!
This action immediately shocked the players who were unaware of the situation.
"Holy crap, the big boss is at it again!"
"I thought someone was secretly trying to steal the top players' rankings, but it turns out the top players have been guarding the rankings all along!"
"Damn, a million points in one go, how are we supposed to catch up?"
"Damn it, where did he get so many resources? I've spent months saving up my physique and it's only around thirty points."
"Wow, a player with 30 points has appeared! I only have 3 points."
"It's only two o'clock."
"I have none at all, am I proud of it?"
A group of people were discussing it in the event channel, all expressing shock at the massive amount of money spent by the Canxue.
At the same time.
Another uproar erupted in the Official Built-in Group.
"Damn, that old guy must have spent money on in-game purchases again!"
"Damn it, I can spend money on in-game purchases too, but the problem is there's nowhere for me to do it!"
"Stop talking nonsense. I've already said this game can't be played with real money. That's his talent—he can convert gold into game items."
"Yes, that's the most amazing talent."
"This talent will only become more and more powerful as the activities increase."
"Damn it, I got another 300 points and was just about to steal some, but look what happened, this bastard has already gone up to over a million!" Empty 2086 said angrily.
"Are you stupid? Why do you always rush to climb the rankings halfway through?" Riding the Wind to Beat Luo Shao sneered. "Can't you just climb the ranks at the very end?"
"Damn it, do you think I'm stupid? The problem is, I need time to absorb and convert intermediate and Advanced Skill Stone. If I pile them up at the end, even with good physique, I won't be able to increase them," Kongkong roared in fury.
"Oh, you're right. I was too hasty. I didn't expect you to be so bad. It takes you so much time to absorb a Skill Stone..." said Riding the Wind to Beat Luo Shao.
He showed no intention of apologizing whatsoever.
"Damn it, are you guys that fast? My native master taught me that you must not be greedy for Skill Stone too quickly, otherwise it will leave hidden dangers in the future and make it difficult to break through to a higher level of profession," Empty 2086 said with dissatisfaction.
"Ah, we're players, we're data-driven bodies, why are you fussing about that? Everything is given to us by the Game System. They rely on their own hard work to cultivate, they make a lot of mistakes, their foundation is weak, and their mentality is restless. We were added to by the system bit by bit, our foundation is deep, and we're perfect, how could there be any problems?" Zhujian3001 said, not understanding.
"What?! That's possible?! Holy crap, I've been tricked by that native instructor!"
"What he said is not wrong, and his intentions are good. The problem is that, like the story of the little horse crossing the river, he is the rabbit giving advice to the horse."
"Damn it, I messed up this time. This is the second time in a row. Is it really that hard to steal a spot on the leaderboard?"
"You're not going to steal it? Then I'll go." said Riding the Wind to Beat Luo Shao.
"Seriously? He's already reached 1.5 million, and you still have points to go?"
"Yes, I have a skill that grants a massive boost to my constitution. Although it reduces my attributes to one-tenth afterward and lasts for a month, it grants a tenfold increase in constitution for one day. I wait until the very end to steal it. Game events calculate the increase in constitution, so this temporary boost should count too."
"What if we don't count?"
"No, consider it a lesson learned."
"I'll take the test. I believe in you. I think you should be considered."
The big shots in several official groups were exchanging ideas with each other.
"Hey, you idiot, there's a mole with Canxue in this group, why did you just say it out loud?" Empty 2086 suddenly retorted with disdain.
"Oh, damn it, I was so excited I forgot. But whatever, if he really gets to 5 million points, it's my own fault if I can't steal it," Riding the Wind to Beat Luo Shao.
"Awesome, no wonder you scored over 100,000 points at the beginning. It was to lull the opponent into a false sense of security, to show that this was all the physical condition you had."
"It doesn't matter, let's see how much more they can go."
Sure enough, Jiangnan1912 quickly forwarded what happened in the group chat to Wuliao.
He was an informant, so what?
What you guys like to chat about in the group is not something he necessarily needs to see.
In online games, it's common to find spies or undercover agents.
Players who don't know how to play the undercover role are neither active nor skilled players.
Bored, he quickly relayed the message to Gao Linzhi.
Gao Linzhi had known about the Official Built-in Group for a long time, but he had never joined it.
Now that we know the opponent's skills, my physique can increase tenfold.
He wasn't surprised.
The "Heavenly Demon Disintegration" build is a style of gameplay where some players prefer high-damage output.
It doesn't matter whether they live or die, the point is to output an explosion of numbers.
That's because players can resurrect.
In this Skyfall Game, players prioritize mobility and stealth, followed by defense, and finally offense.
The main reason is the existence of unsolvable anomalies.
The ability to escape and hide is paramount.
Its defensive capabilities are practically useless, and its offensive capabilities are even more limited.
