No, That's Not It

Before Wang Wen could figure out how to kick someone...

Then He Jiong came over and asked with concern, "Your Majesty, it's so tiring for you to fight the insects all by yourself. Why don't you let us juniors help you?"

Wang Wen looked at him strangely. "Why do I feel like the way you addressed me is weird? Are you calling me 'Wang' or calling me 'Wang'?"

"No, that's not it." He Jiong continued seriously, "I'm not kidding. I've been observing and thinking about it for two weeks, and I figured that having more people to kill the bugs would help ease your workload."

"It seems you guys can't fight as fast as me?" Wang Wen shrugged helplessly. "There's only one Insect Chamber right now. I can't possibly spend time bringing everyone in every week and then watching you slowly fight bugs. That would be such a waste."

"No," He Jiong said again, "After you used your Same-Floor Teleportation ability to send us in, you could leave the tower and rest! It wouldn't be a problem if we stayed inside and continued fighting, right?"

Upon hearing this, a thought seemed to flash through Wang Wen's mind, making his heart race.

It slipped away before I could catch it.

As he tried to recall, he casually remarked, "Leaving the tower is the same waste of time for me. It's like I spent a week letting you guys inefficiently kill bugs. It's not worth it! I'd rather use that time to climb a few more floors in the super high-level dungeons."

"No, that's not it." He Jiong "no" again, shaking his head and slowly analyzing, "Our current efficiency is low, but boss, you can keep sending people in. The more people there are, the higher the efficiency will be, right?"

Wang Wen's mind exploded with a "boom".

He finally understood what that fleeting thought of his had been.

Those stranded!

Even if an insect in the Insect Chamber falls to its death, it will be counted as a reward Point.

So as long as someone is still inside, they can keep killing bugs and accumulating rewards.

As He Jiong mentioned, efficiency naturally increases with the number of people!

Yes!

Why didn't I think of this before?

He listened blankly as He Jiong tried his best to analyze:

"When you have thousands of people helping you fight in the Insect Chamber, the efficiency probably won't be much slower than if you did it yourself."

"Besides, we can bring other experts with similar area-of-effect damage skills to join us; their speed will be off the charts then."

"And there's more."

"We could also bring in some experts in Mechanism Art, preferably master-level figures, to set up traps all over the place to harvest the insects. That would increase efficiency dramatically!"

Wang Wen watched as He Jiong continued to analyze the He Jiong.

He let out a deep sigh.

It's true that bystanders see things more clearly!

All that time I spent fighting in the Insect Chamber was for nothing.

It's unbelievable that such a crucial method wasn't discovered.

As long as you can find a large number of Tower Climber voluntarily stay in the Insect Chamber, you can go in every now and then to collect Point.

The clearance settlement only applies to the current five members of the team. Those who are left behind will not participate in the settlement and therefore do not need to leave the level to go to the next level.

They can stay in the Insect Chamber forever.

If anyone wants to leave the tower, they can leave, and then be brought back in next time.

Alternatively, shifts could be rotated, such as the thirty Resource Team members who are "eliminated" due to their strong character and work ethic, who take turns on duty.

If you think the process is too slow, just take all these "thugs" to the 600th floor for the lottery!

As the base number increases, powerful area-of-effect damage-dealing extraordinary skills will inevitably emerge.

The insects in the Insect Chamber are not very strong. Even the 1000th insect is only two or three meters tall. It might be troublesome for a 100-floor Tower Climber, but a 600-floor Tower Climber has already unlocked the power of the world doesn't need to worry at all. As long as the output and support are well matched, they can start smoothly.

So, when you calculate it this way...

The day when we can finally escape the tedious grind of collecting Point is just around the corner!!!

Wang Wen stared intently at He Jiong, silently saying to him: Great young man, you've got your place.

The thought of kicking someone out of the team vanished completely at that moment.

Such valuable advice is enough to earn you a permanent position on the team.

While it may not become a core unit, at least it won't get kicked out as soon as it reaches the 300th floor.

He Jiong had no idea what he had gone through.

He was still working hard to refine the plan. "Now there's just one problem I need to figure out."

Wang Wen cooperatively asked, "What's the question?"

He Jiong said somewhat shyly, "I've spent most of my time in the lower levels of the tower, so I'm fairly familiar with some of the basic rules, but I don't know much about the more advanced ones. I wonder if the World Tower's weekend reset will also reset the Insect Chamber's prize pool?"

He seriously suggested, "If that's the case, we'll need to add an extra position in the Insect Chamber. You'll need to appoint a trusted confidant as the reward collection specialist. He'll be responsible for collecting the rewards before the weekly reset to prevent them from being cleared. If the specialist leaves the tower, you'll need to appoint someone else to keep the position."

At this moment, the skinny boy joined the discussion, saying, "It sounds like they've booked the whole place? What if outsiders come in? With so many Tower Climber, surely a few teams will be randomly assigned to one, right?"

Wang Wen did not respond proactively, but instead looked at He Jiong with a rather probing expression.

As expected, He Jiong seemed to have prepared a solution in advance.

He told the boy, "As the leader, most people who accidentally trespass will give face and voluntarily leave the tower. At most, the leader will provide some compensation, either personal or material. These are all negotiable. The difficult part is identifying the people who are willing to stay and genuinely help without causing trouble. Secondly, their individual insect-killing ability is important; they must be efficient. Otherwise, if we just rely on sheer numbers, the leader won't have enough people to do every week."

The skinny little boy nodded thoughtfully.

Wang Wen nodded with deep satisfaction.

It's clear that He Jiong and Ta have put a lot of thought into things for him over the past two weeks.

All aspects have been considered.

While not perfectly comprehensive, it was certainly organized and logical.

"Very good." Wang Wen finally spoke up to affirm He Jiong: "This plan can be tested. Let's start working on it next week, and we'll address any problems that arise during the process."

He Jiong was very happy to receive the affirmation.

The skinny little boy patted him on the shoulder with a rather dignified air to express his appreciation.

However, He Jiong still replied with a "No".

"No," He Jiong said to Wang Wen, "Boss, we don't need to wait until next week. Let's not waste this opportunity and start right away."

Wang Wen was slightly taken aback.

I heard him clearly say, "I can go straight back into the tower to the Insect Chamber as one of the first to remain, and fight for you."

As soon as she finished speaking, Wang Wen's body jolted.

At this moment.

Wang Wen was genuinely surprised.

To be honest, he didn't have much affection for He Jiong.

First impressions are very important.

He Jiong's first impression of him was not bad.

It was absolutely terrible.

A guy who's only at level 300 is putting on airs like a big shot.

If it were truly a master from the 300th floor, that would be one thing.

That's not it, however.

They run up to the lower floors of the tower, one or two hundred stories high, to show off their superiority to the newcomers.

How can someone like this make a good impression?

But what's going on now?

what happened?

Have I been misunderstanding him all along, or has he turned over a new leaf and reformed?

Why do I feel like he's a capable assistant?

Her persona has completely collapsed, hasn't it??

Wang Wen looked at him with a complicated expression. "Don't you need to leave the tower? Has everything been arranged outside the tower? And you've already worked hard for a week, won't it be too tiring to stay here any longer?"

He Jiong rubbed his hands together and laughed, "I'm not tired, it's just that you rushed through the tower so fast that I didn't have time to collect any supplies. How about we climb a few more floors? Let's find a suitable level and I'll grab some bags, backpacks, and suitcases to pack more supplies. I guarantee you'll be back next week still full of energy!"

Wang Wen remained silent.

She frowned and stared intently at him.

for a long time.

He felt a chill run down his spine from being stared at, and even the skinny little boy felt somewhat bewildered.

Wang Wen smiled.

He reached out and patted He Jiong Jiong's hunched shoulder.

"Alright, let's climb a few more floors!" he said loudly.
