Chapter 63 Domain Node: Cloud Field
The lottery will end after 24 hours.
In this event, most players lost more than they gained, and only a handful of players received high returns.
But no player doubts the lottery probability issue.
In their understanding, the game official has no possibility of making profits through activities.
If you can't draw good things, you will just think that you are too unlucky.
This is also the reason why Qi Sheng chose to use lottery to obtain Sacrificial Power from players.
But Qi Sheng also understands that such activities cannot be launched frequently and are only suitable for when Sacrificial Power is in urgent need, otherwise it will seriously affect the growth rate of players.
He had already seen some players complaining on the forum, regretting that he couldn't control it and spent all the Sacrificial Power originally intended to develop Astral Veins on the Lucky Wheel event.
At the end of the event, Qi Sheng counted his income.
The total income of Sacrificial Power is 830,000.
The event drained one-third of players' Sacrificial Power inventory.
It is certain that if the event is not only for 24 hours, in addition to a small number of players who are indifferent to the probability of gambling, more players will participate, bringing him more Sacrificial Power benefits.
Origin Altar.
It was clear that Sacrificial Power was enough for Hyperdimension to develop the "armed vehicle system". Qi Sheng waved and hung up the connection light curtain with Hyperdimension.
He raised his head and glanced at the Primal Containment wall in front of the altar.
The majestic wall made of blue crystal walls is divided into countless grids, but only No. 1-15 at the bottom holds Primal Monster.
You can see that there is a translucent hose connected to the back of each Primal Monster, which continuously extracts energy from their bodies.
In a flash of thought, Qi Sheng switched to Di Zhao Form.
As his head turned into blazing flames, a bright energy orbit like the Milky Way appeared around the body, followed by 15 spheres of different colors emerging on the orbit and circling around the body.
This galaxy orbit is the embodiment of his power. Every ball on the orbit represents a contained Origin Source ability.
Qi Sheng raised his right hand, and the palm burning with Di Zhao's fire slowly opened.
Immediately, 15 Origin Source ability balls broke away from the power orbit and flew to the top of his palm, circling and flying, releasing energy of different colors from the palm of his hand into his body. The surging heat flow stirred and merged in Qi Sheng's body, and the color of Di Zhao's fire deepened.
Every time Primal Monster is taken in, a piece of the power puzzle is recovered. Qi Sheng can clearly feel that his strength has been improved.
He believes that with the help of players, he will one day be able to step out of Emperor's Tomb Village and face the challenges of Terror Black Tide as Di Zhao.
[Boss, found new Domain Node.]
Guidance, who was floating next to him, suddenly made a sound, interrupting Qi Sheng's thoughts. He decisively switched his sight to the perspective of Guidance's feedback.
15 minutes ago, Emperor's Tomb Village southeast direction.
Gray fog forest.
The map fog dissipates, and exploration rewards arrive with prompts.
The two-person team that received the reward did not stop and continued to explore the dense forest.
After passing through the towering bamboo forest, the scene before them shocked the two players.
It's like a paradise here, with a path paved with fine pebbles leading straight into the depths of the forest. On both sides are fluorescent grasses that emit soft light. The air is filled with thin white mist, and every breath brings a hint of sweetness, refreshing the heart and mind.
Going deeper inside, a variety of plants are displayed before your eyes.
The two people who advanced finally stopped in front of a spiritual tree.
This spiritual tree is several feet high, with lush branches and leaves. The trunk is wrapped with slender vines, and flowers of different colors are blooming on it. Each petal is crystal clear and exudes a faint fragrance.
Focusing their eyes, analytical information was presented in the minds of the two players:
[Seven-Colored Wood]
Spirit Plant Level: Level 4
Introduction to spiritual plants: Monster World is a relatively rare medium-quality spiritual plant. The flowers blooming from its accompanying vines can rotate with time and seasons to show seven different colors. Each color has different effects. In the cold winter, when the cold wind is howling, Seven-Colored Wood is golden and fiery red in color and has entered the mature mining period (corroded by the energy of Black Tide, the growth state of spiritual plants has been destroyed. Seven-Colored Wood cannot follow the changes of the seasons, showing the coexistence of multiple colors).
Efficacy of spiritual plants: Body Refining Experience can be obtained by eating it, and can also be used to provide special potions that provide amplifying effects.
Discovering that this was actually a level 4 spiritual plant, the team's breathing became rapid.
They never thought that such good luck would happen to them in this way.
"Monkey, are we going to get rich?" the man with short hair in the team said with bright eyes.
The player known as the monkey nodded excitedly when he heard this, and the depression caused by the lucky wheel was swept away at this moment:
"Work, check out the regional channels and see if anyone charges a high price. If not, give Sacrifice to brother Di Zhao."
After a brief exchange, the two immediately took action, took out Pickaxe, dug up Seven-Colored Wood from the soil, and put it into their space luggage.
After doing all this, the two did not directly release the sale information, but continued to explore the depths of the jungle.
They think there must be other treasures here.
But they soon noticed something was wrong deep in the jungle.
As you go deeper, black spots gradually appear on the surface of the plants along the way. The further you go, the more black spots there are on the surface of the plants.
Many plants are unable to hang down, and their leaves are withered and yellow. Through analysis, it is found that the plants here have been corroded and damaged by the power of Black Tide, and are almost dead.
"Monkey, is there a corrosive core in this?"
Not long after they experienced the Gloomy Cave battle, they saw such a strange sight, and they subconsciously thought of corroding the core.
According to Guidance's description, the corrosive core is a Black Tide evil that is naturally generated under Evil Moon's light. The generated area will be gradually penetrated by the corrosive core, causing serious damage to the environment.
The node field crystal of the Gloomy Cave battle was entangled and penetrated by the corrosive core.
"I'm not sure, keep taking a closer look."
Five minutes later, the two passed through a patch of dead fluorescent grass, and the sight ahead suddenly became clear.
Deep in the jungle is a vast field, divided into square pieces. The spiritual plants planted in it are all dead. The air is filled with a faint fishy smell, and a corroded core that beats like a sarcoma can be seen suspended in the center of the field.
The fungus spreading from the core covers the surface of the field like a spider web, absorbing the power of the earth to nourish itself.
The challenger prompt also sounded at this time:
[Challenger Tip: Found Domain Node "Cloud Field".]
As the challenger prompt sounded, the fog in the center of the Gray Mist Forest area on the map was dispelled, and the location of the corrosive core was marked with a black sarcoma icon.
The two players focused their eyes on Spiritual Field in front of them, and more detailed introduction information appeared in their minds:
[Cloud Field]
Territory type: resources
Territory characteristics: Accelerated growth
Feature introduction: Greatly accelerates the growth rate of spiritual plants planted in the node coverage area. Level 1 spiritual plants can mature within 3-5 days.
Realm Status: Corrosive Core Entanglement
It was just a guess at first. Looking at the changes in the environment, I thought there might be a corrosive core ahead.
But I didn't expect that the guess turned out to be true.
There is actually an uncontained Domain Node here.
"Monkey, break the corrosive core and the two of us can enjoy the Purification reward exclusively. I'm afraid we will really get rich." A player in the team said emotionally.
"Don't make trouble. There must be danger near the corrosive core. Don't rush to death." The player known as the monkey seemed very cautious.
"There is no Cursed Soldiers here. The brave ones will be starved to death, and the timid ones will be starved to death. If you are afraid of this and that when playing a game, you are too coward, so do it."
With that said, the leading player walked decisively into Spiritual Field.
Seeing this, the monkey had no choice but to follow.
Although he believed from the bottom of his heart that the corrosive core could not be easily destroyed and was definitely potentially dangerous, he still chose to follow in his brother's footsteps.
The two of them moved forward slowly, gradually approaching the core of the corrosion.
When less than a hundred meters away from the corrosion core, the leading player spoke in the voice channel:
"Monkey, monster form."
After the words fell, the two players switched monster forms back and forth, and their bodies twisted into Stone Gargoyle form and Bone Fire form respectively.
As he raised his hands, the leading player's hands ignited black flames, and after rapid consumption of mental energy, they condensed into a large fireball with a diameter of one meter.
But he was not in a hurry to take action:
"Monkey, you go up first, I will follow up and output."
The player known as the monkey felt helpless, but still ran towards the corrosive core. At this time, the leading player also shot a fireball, flying straight towards the corrosive core.
This is a simple tactic used by two people when hunting. One person is responsible for taking damage and the other is responsible for dealing damage.
But just as the ink-colored fireball was about to hit the core of the corrosion, the black sarcoma suddenly shrank, and then a large amount of black mist was ejected from the top, quickly forming a barrier.
The fireball hit it, and the black mist surged violently, but it failed to break through the defense.
Then a tentacle pierced the tumor and grew rapidly, and whipped the approaching player away.
The silent corrosive core was completely activated under the threat of external force.
The ensuing scene changes shocked the two players.
The originally silent land seemed like the gate of the abyss that had been opened, and countless black corrupt plants were like awakened demons, jumping up from the cracks in the surface, emitting evil breath.
The stems of these plants are twisted like snakes, their leaves are as black as ink, and their surfaces are covered with viscous rot. They grow in a rhythm that is almost like a dance of demons, intertwining with each other, intertwining into a tight and airtight black net, completely swallowing up the thin light around them.
The air is filled with a disgusting smell of mold, dampness and rot, accompanied by the rustling sounds of the plants growing rapidly, like the whispers of demons.
The scene like a group of demons dancing wildly brings a strong visual shock to the two players.
Before they even had time to escape, they were entangled and tightened by the corrosive plants, and their vision was subsequently shrouded in darkness.
Origin Altar.
Qi Sheng was not surprised to see two players die.
Each corrosive core has a strong sense of territory and will actively attack all life outside the Black Tide system.
With just these two players, it is impossible to Purification this Domain Node.
But now that this area has been discovered, Qi Sheng decided to release a new Purification mission to all players.
This time the mission reward was modified according to the domain characteristics of Spiritual Field.
Although Cloud Field is a resource-based field, it is significantly different from Gloomy Cave.
This Domain Node needs to produce resources by planting spiritual plants, so it will definitely not be fully open to all players after being contained.
Otherwise, it will easily lead to disputes over the ownership of spiritual plants, disputes over land use rights, and other issues.
So for this Purification mission, he simply used Spiritual Field as the reward chip after completing the mission and released the latest Purification mission.
Full Channel prompts sounded in the minds of all players:
[Challenger Tips (Full Channel): Discover Domain Node "Cloud Field" and capture Domain Node to receive generous rewards.]
Mission goal: Contain Cloud Field Domain Node
Task reward: Spiritual Field right to use
Detailed introduction: This Purification task will issue task completion rewards based on the contribution value ranking. The top 1,000 players can obtain a small piece of land in Cloud Field, which can be used for spiritual plant planting and cultivation (spiritual plant seeds can be purchased in the mall function panel)
Spiritual Field Characteristic introduction: It can significantly increase the growth speed of spiritual plants.
Mission duration: unlimited (until the node is captured)
Once the Purification mission was released, it attracted a large number of players' attention.
Players have started chatting in forums and regional voice channels.
"Eh? In this Purification mission, only the top 1,000 people with the highest contributions will be rewarded. Isn't this destined to miss a weakling like me? It's discrimination based on strength, right? (God of Wealth Furious. jpg)"
"As expected, you can't sell Sacrificial Power in the early stage, so you have to use it to increase your strength. When the reward comes, isn't it coming? Kill me, I have to have a piece of Spiritual Field. This is a permanent reward!"
"Damn it, this Spiritual Field is such a good thing. If you divide it into a piece and lie back, you can produce spiritual plants. The farming party is ecstatic. I am a college student and I want to reserve a piece!"
"Brother upstairs, don't tell me that you are a college student. If you have no strength, you are a beast. Spiritual Field has nothing to do with you (Strange Butterfly contemptuous look. jpg)"
"No, I've only been in the game for a few days, and the current monster level can't even beat Blood Corpse. I'd better continue to form a team to fight Blood Corpse, and find a strong guild willing to bring in newbies."
The discussion of this Purification mission has been polarized among the player community.
Competent players are ecstatic and believe that this Purification mission will bring them significant returns.
Weaker players will know that this reward is not for them when they see the mission introduction, and have no idea of participating.
During this period, major guilds organized their manpower and prepared to go to the new area of the map "Grey Forest" to contribute to the Purification mission.
But after the player entered the depths of the gray forest and saw the scene of a group of demons dancing wildly on Cloud Field, their high enthusiasm suddenly died down.
The reason is simple.
Cloud Field, which is controlled by the Corruption Core, has a large number of corrupted plants with hunting levels of 30-45. This is simply not something that the players can compete with at this stage.
After some guilds tried using Spirit Energy Bomb, they found that although Spirit Energy Bomb can cause certain damage to corrupted plants, the effect is far less effective than expected. All corrupted plants have strong self-healing capabilities, which means that the tactic of using Spirit Energy Bomb to grind blood is meaningless.
Only with absolute crushing strength can "Cloud Field" Domain Node be contained.
All major guilds have chosen to give up temporarily.
However, the potential income of Cloud Field has inspired capable players to upgrade and become stronger.
