More Comfortable Than a Vacation
Chen Hansheng calculated and said, "Keep raising it! Do we still lack money?"
Wang Wen looked at him helplessly. "Level eight requires one trillion Point, and level nine requires ten trillion."
"I knew top Tower Climber cost money, but I didn't expect it to be this expensive." Mo Ran exclaimed in astonishment.
Chen Hansheng, however, said, "Raising ten trillion yuan isn't too difficult; it can be done in a little time, after all, we have so many conglomerates under our control now."
"No need." Wang Wen shook her head. "We haven't taken over the conglomerate in time, and things haven't been sorted out yet. Using such a large sum of money rashly might cause chaos. We should focus on external matters first. If the company needs money, we'll find another way."
"What method can compare to the speed at which the group can raise funds?" Chen Hansheng scoffed. "You're not going to rely on this Four Squares Formation, are you?"
"That's right, it's Four Squares Formation!" Wang Wen smiled, then turned to the dumbfounded Cheng Queyi and asked, "What did you just say?"
Cheng Queyi shook her head blankly, indicating that there was nothing there.
Because she saw Wang Wen casually swat and kill even more bats.
The invisible giant hand, larger than a house, shocked her.
This bizarre method of randomly killing small bats shocked her even more.
The first time Cheng Queyi climbed the tower with Wang Wen, she felt that everything around her was magical and mysterious.
Wang Wen quickly began distributing the work.
As with the standard procedure, each person is responsible for a portal, while they deal with the central monster on their own.
The only difference is that the four guards don't need to hold back; they can kill the little bats whenever they want.
Zhu Xingguo, being the most obedient, immediately began to beat the little bat.
He must have never beaten up the monsters in the Four Squares Formation so thoroughly before.
In every instance, the number of divisions was always carefully controlled.
Right now, Master says to fight however you like.
How could it be wrong?
Zhu Xingguo took out the heavy machine gun he had collected in the previous few times from [Equal Exchange] and unleashed a barrage of fire at the portal.
The little bat was smashed to pieces the moment it peeked out.
Seeing this, Cheng Queyi quickly found a teleportation portal, set up a mechanism, and began harvesting.
Meanwhile, Chen Hansheng and Mo Ran chatted leisurely together.
They observed Wang Wen's methods of controlling the division and discerned her intentions.
Chen Hansheng clicked his tongue and said, "Looks like they're planning to fight their way out of this Four Squares Formation."
"In that case, if we can finish off the big monster quickly enough, without considering the splitting time..." Mo Ran calculated the speed at which the portal spewed out bats. "The portal spews out one bat per second, 60 bats per minute, that's 100 bats per day, multiplied by four equals over 340,000 bats, which translates Point over 34 billion points!"
Chen Hansheng used a blunt object to flatten the approaching small bat.
With a look of surprise, he chimed in, "Over 30 billion a day? That means one trip into the tower could net you 200 billion! In less than a year, you could earn 10 trillion for free! My goodness, Teacher Wang's money-making speed is really not much slower than the group's! No wonder he said he didn't need the group to raise money!"
Mo Ran, thought of another aspect.
He watched as the small bats died one by one.
Imagine the number of monsters that will eventually need to be harvested.
My legs feel a little weak.
He stared at Wang Wen in the center of the arena, his lips moving as he muttered, "No wonder he said he needed thugs... This job is truly inhuman!"
Time ticked by, second by second.
When Wang Wen came over to call Cheng Queyi eat in the open space, she felt like she could barely lift her arms.
I sat in the open space watching Zhu Xingguo fiddling with the cookware.
Cheng Queyi asked Wang Wen, "How long are we going to fight like this?"
Wang Wen laughed and said, "If nothing unexpected happens, we'll probably keep playing until we leave the tower. You haven't been upgraded yet, so if you get tired, just leave the tower. We have enough manpower. We're also forming a team of five because it would be too troublesome if outsiders were matched into our lower tower levels."
Cheng Queyi's face turned pale upon hearing this. "We're going to fight in this Four Squares Formation for seven days straight??"
She glanced at the ingredients in Zhu Xingguo's hand and asked doubtfully, "Even if you have no worries about food and drink, don't you need to sleep and rest?"
"We can take turns resting; there's no danger here." Wang Wen casually controlled the four teleportation portals and the central monster, preventing them from disturbing the group's meal.
When the portal became too crowded, they squeezed the clump of bats into starlight all at once.
In any case, aside from the large monster corpse left behind after being split open, all other times when monsters die, they simply scatter into starlight and disappear.
Mo Ran and the others were mentally prepared for the time commitment.
So I wasn't too surprised.
Only Cheng Queyi's face was flushed, and she seemed lost in thought.
Wang Wen handed her the cooked noodles, and seeing her absent-minded look, explained, "I brought you here simply to familiarize you with my tower-climbing rhythm. Don't feel pressured, just relax and treat it like an experiment."
"I'm not nervous, it's just..." Cheng Queyi rolled her eyes and whispered a few words in Wang Wen's ear.
Wang Wen smiled and pointed at Zhu Xingguo, saying, "Don't worry, after we finish eating, Momo will set up a temporary toilet. You can use it anytime. It has water and electricity, and all the trash can be sold to the World Tower. It's very clean."
Cheng Queyi covered her mouth in surprise.
Holding the bowl of noodles in one hand, she walked over to Zhu Xingguo and watched as the items kept appearing and disappearing in his hand. She exclaimed in admiration, "Brother Zhu, you're amazing! Are you a magician? How can you conjure up so many things?"
Zhu Xingguo placed a slice of fried egg into her bowl, grinning, "It's all thanks to Master's excellent teaching. Master's wife, if you need anything, just let me know. I have all the basic necessities I need."
Cheng Queyi originally wanted to talk about many more things.
Upon hearing the word "Master's wife," she was stunned and blushed deeply. She picked up the bowl of noodles, covered her entire face, and slurped down the noodles.
Zhu Xingguo chuckled and urged, "Master's wife, eat slowly. There will be braised pork ribs and braised beef later, so we'll add some to the noodles. You're new to the tower, so conditions are limited. Try to eat your fill and eat well so you won't feel bitter."
"Huff, huff, huff, huff!"
Wang Wen walked over, picked up a slice of fried egg, and said to Zhu Xingguo, "Don't shout nonsense. Are you getting a little cocky now that Xiao Ren isn't here? Where's the Gourmet Bread? Cut a few pieces for the new friend to try."
"Okay!"
Zhu Xingguo, beaming, took out a bread book and carefully cut it into several pieces on the cutting board, distributing them to everyone.
Chen Hansheng glanced at the prop information, then popped the bread into his mouth and chewed it.
His eyes lit up. "Are the conditions for climbing towers this outrageous now? I could live here year-round with this standard of living!"
The group burst into laughter.
Cheng Queyi panting heavily.
Mo Ran took a sip of noodle soup, then a bite of bread, and asked Wang Wen, holding the bowl, "Have you calculated how many monsters we'll have to fight in the end?"
"More than two million, right?" Wang Wen looked at Mo Ran with a half-smile, "What's wrong? Regretting it?"
Mo Ran gritted his teeth and clenched his fist.
He shouted resolutely, "Only a grandson would regret it! Don't forget the boxing gloves you promised me!"
Another burst of cheerful laughter filled the room.
As Chen Hansheng said, climbing a tower to this extent can only be described as "enjoyment".
Six days later.
Even Cheng Queyi didn't leave the tower until Wang Wen called a halt, then she started poisoning the bats to control their splitting and prepare to clear the level.
Mo Ran glanced at the time on the aircraft and asked in confusion, "Only a week?"
Wang Wen smiled and said, "You guys have worked so hard to help me earn money, it wouldn't be right not to help you at least once. Keep it up! After we finish the Four Squares Formation, I'll show you my current speed."
