Chapter 441 - 231: Player’s L-Type Modification (Part 2)
Regardless of age or race, just pay and you can join.
However, to prevent some people from exploiting the system, residents over the age of sixteen who haven’t reached Transcendent, that is Level 11, don’t get free meals from the school.
They need to spend money to buy food.
But this alone is enough to spark a wave of learning across the entire Federation.
Arcane Magic, truly, doesn’t rely on talent. In just a month, the number of Transcendents surged, with everyone having grasped some knowledge.
Deep or shallow.
However, as long as you delve into the knowledge you have, releasing one or two arcane spells to temper Spirit and Magic Power is quite simple.
Under such tempering of Magic Power, becoming extremely powerful is impossible, but breaking through from Level 10 or Level 7 and Level 8 to Level 11 isn’t as difficult as imagined.
Of course, this is enough to deter most ordinary people, living half a lifetime aimlessly, it’s very difficult, extremely difficult to take up books and go to school again.
But knowledge is the easiest way to rise above others in this era. They can only force themselves to learn, or... force their descendants to learn!
Without magic talents and assassin talents, that’s okay too. Arcane Magic can fill the gap of missing talents.
"Scary, even infrastructure demons don’t do it like this, right?"
Demacia shivered slightly, looking at the growing changes in Dongwu City.
In a month’s time, during this period, almost all of Dongwu City’s Outer City District built Earth Treasure Houses.
These houses, although cheap, are better than wooden houses; at least they are sturdy and warm.
This includes the resurrection point for players, a mechanism unimaginable. When more than 80% of the surrounding buildings are completed, the players’ resurrection point also changed from one wooden house to a regular residential house.
This sparked a discussion at the time, but with a sentence from the gaming company — "Fully open game, please explore on your own" — it was left unresolved.
The Guard Brigade felt there was nothing surprising: "It’s normal, if there were Earth Treasures in real life, the construction wouldn’t be slower than this."
"But that Finance Officer is still outrageous, I even heard players have to pay taxes like other NPCs when doing business...."
The Guard Brigade complained: "Though I’m glad he sees us players as people, I still want to say, please don’t treat marvels like humans, thank you."
Demacia was also a bit speechless: "Something like Sabo.... forget it, never mind him, but 1.0 seems to be nearing its end, the bosses in the trailers on the Sun and Star servers are out, why is it so different here?"
"Not only has that cat in the trailer not appeared, but the main battlefield has also shifted from South Spirit City to Dongwu City... it’s absurd..."
The Guard Brigade fell into deep thought, pondered, and responded: "Not sure if you’ve read the gaming regulations."
"What regulations?" Demacia was curious.
"It’s the agreement that appeared during real-name authentication." The Guard Brigade was a bit helpless: "There’s one clause I still somewhat remember: There’s no predestination in the game, please don’t take our company’s announcements as game prophecies."
Demacia: .... "Who watches that stuff..."
Thud! Thud! Thud!
Suddenly heavy footsteps were heard, Demacia twitched his mouth, turned, and walked away, the Guard Brigade did roughly the same.
"Hey, don’t leave, look at my muscle structure, look at these charming biceps, look at my back muscles."
A rough voice sounded from behind, followed by that L-shaped Modified Warrior leaping to stand before them, continuously showcasing his muscles, along with his three-meter-tall frame.
Demacia was somewhat speechless: "A hundred thousand battle merits, and you used them for a one-time modification?"
"Hehe, who says it’s one-time, I’m currently the strongest player, as long as I’m undying, the modified state won’t reset!" Xiahou Fuxing said proudly.
Having gained five million battle merits, he decisively chose the L-shaped modification, not that the M-type modification was bad, but mainly because the L-shaped modification had a stronger sense of power and visual impact.
And after the player’s modification, he gained a large number of fans.
For the time being, a hundred thousand battle merits are beyond players’ reach.
Additionally, after a player’s modification, they cannot gain any experience value, and the modified state vanishes upon death.
These two points have made most players lose the desire for modification.
After all, if they use these battle merits to exchange for resources to sell, and then convert the Gold Coins to cash, even though Gold Coins are depreciated, it’s still more than ten thousand in real-world currency.
Only the wealthy would modify on such terms.
Looking at the swaggering Xiahou Fuxing, Demacia couldn’t help but complain: "In version 2.0, when the level cap resets again, won’t you be doomed not being able to gain experience?"
Xiahou Fuxing nonchalantly replied: "Doesn’t matter, it doesn’t affect farming Gold Coins. If I’m in a state near death, I can unleash power close to Golden Level, using this power to farm Gold Coins and battle merits. I won’t lose too much by the time I die."
"And..." Xiahou Fuxing turned his back to them, clenched his fists, slightly tilted his head, and looked back with a bit of flair: "I still have four million eight hundred thousand battle merits, I can refresh forty-eight times anytime."
He reached out, and a silver Barrett appeared from the Space Ring in his hand: "And this thing, ah, this game is so fun, never played such a fun game, ah, I love it, love it."
Demacia: ....
The Guard Brigade: ....
"Scram!" ×2
Xiahou Fuxing was satisfied, feeling content, and chuckled triumphantly: "Hehe, we’re brothers, tell me, what do you want? I’ll trade some for you, I have the money!"
The Guard Brigade hadn’t spoken yet, and Demacia immediately opened a screenshot and sent it to them: [Any of these would do.]
[Devil Legendary Set: 20,000,000 battle merits.]
[X-Type Transformation: 19,800,000 battle merits.]
[Full Mechanical Transformation Set: 10,000,000 battle merits.]
[Golden Level Barrett: 200,000 battle merits.]
[Legendary Level...]
Xiahou Fuxing: ....
"I treat you as brothers, you see me as a wealthy ATM..." Xiahou Fuxing was a bit on the verge of tears: "Besides, that Legendary Set is so enticing, with over 100 extra charm points in extreme attributes, even if I don’t want the Charm Value, I really want it just for the special effects..."
Demacia, thinking about the attributes of the set, was also somewhat helpless: "If I could trade for that thing, summoning a Golden Upper Tier monster to help in battle is possible...."
The Guard Brigade joined the chat at this point: "Hasn’t your Xiaomo completed its transformation?"
"No..." Demacia was even more on the verge of tears: "My Magic Staff is still with it, can’t get it back now, I’m so miserable...."
The Guard Brigade: ... "Another Magic Staff, it sounds so familiar..."
"Scram! A Scholar, a wealthy show-off, I’m leaving, going on a trip today, goodbye!" Demacia wiped away a tear of frustration and decisively summoned Er Shu, flying directly to the Outer City District.
Watching Xiahou Fuxing below catching a player and starting to show off, a relaxed smile appeared on his face.
This game is getting more and more interesting...
The uniformly lined up and evenly spaced houses below extended into the distance.
An occasionally luxurious building appeared, those were entertainment venues, schools, and places like the Law Enforcement Hall.
This orderly arrangement of buildings would make someone with OCD feel comfortable, and seeing some players teaching residents things, he felt this game wasn’t just one to pass time.
With the extremely high level of realism, every NPC seemed like a real person, players received requests, helping some NPCs to open businesses they hoped for, whether a steamed bun shop or a cake shop.
Players reaped monetary rewards from the tasks and a sense of satisfaction from teaching, while the commoners found another way to earn money.
The Outer City District also began to prosper, players seemed no longer to be the fourth calamity under the law and these residents’ humble requests.
Demacia thought about this and saw a player trying to steal a firearm from the Law Enforcement Team, causing him to involuntarily twitch his mouth.
Okay, except for these trouble-making players....
