Chapter 704 - 213: Defying the Heavens
Players have always been suppressed by the Black Tide, but there is only one core reason that causes the Earth Thought Evil Spirit immense pain.
Killing and absorbing, resurrection without loss.
These are the two biggest trump cards for players.
No matter how strong the Nano Mechanical Army is, with comprehensive combat power several times stronger than the Black Tide, when encountering the Black Tide, it can only gain a temporary war advantage, but will ultimately be countered by the Black Tide.
Because the Black Tide can devour nano-mechanical insects to grow, this is bound to be a war of mutual destruction.
Without the protection of the Player System, the mechanical nanoworms and the Black Tide aren’t even in the same category of warfare system.
After the Star Network proposed the concept, what it wanted to know was whether the Nano Mechanical Army could be integrated into the Player System to allow nano-mechanical insects to grow without damage.
Or rather, even if there are losses in combat,
as long as the player’s body can resurrect after death, they can resurrect the mechanical nanoworms under their control without damage, just like ordinary players.
This idea is the Star Network’s most core demand.
Only by solving this problem can the Nano Mechanical Army become an almost unsolvable existence, directly competing with the Black Tide.
Even if it’s not as excellent as the Black Tide System in all aspects, it can have unlimited fault tolerance.
This issue, Qi Sheng temporarily doesn’t want to give any answer.
To sum up, no money!
The sacrificial power for creating the Star Network has yet to be secured, where would there be sacrificial power to create a configuration that can integrate external objects into the Challenger System.
Players are fundamentally nurtured by the Challenger System and grow within the framework of the Challenger System, so even if they are strong, they can resurrect without loss.
But linking external objects to the Challenger System is very complex.
This is essentially no different from the issue of the Star Network entering the Monster World to become a player with its main body.
As for the Shuyan Warriors captured by controlling Life Souls, although they can enter the Imperial Tomb Village, it’s only after purification process.
They do not resurrect in the Imperial Tomb Village upon death.
So purification does not mean integration into the Challenger System.
To truly integrate Shuyan Warriors into the Challenger System is also a considerable expense.
Especially in remolding the life structure of Shuyan Warriors into the players’ "Pure Body," which can cost even more than directly generating a Shuyan Warrior.
The Star Network’s idea, in Qi Sheng’s view, is quite good.
But the development of new functions must advance with the growth rate of sacrificial power.
Once the Weapon System is complete, he will prepare for the next round of player qualification distribution.
As for the Star Network’s conceived configuration, let’s talk about it when there’s money.
Players often cry on forums about the lack of sacrificial power, not having enough to spend, and he feels the same way.
If he really had endless sacrificial power, he would prioritize enhancing the strength of the Four Gods, helping the four mighty allies regain their combat power.
In the future, projecting the powers of the Four Gods to the players would be stronger than any existing functionality system.
Just like the "Power of War" projected to the Reverse Tide Warriors by the Reverse Tide God, granting all warriors rapid growth in warfare.
For players, Jiuyin can bestow the Purification Power.
If Jiuyin could be restored to peak state, even without Jiuyin taking action, players could possess the "Purification Body."
Theoretically, non-rule, even ordinary rule power cannot affect players in the slightest.
Simply put, with the blessing of Jiuyin in peak state, players will maintain an Eternal Dominator mode, unaffected by curses, mind control, or any restrictive means.
This is the divine might of the Four Gods.
But the sacrificial power required to restore the strength of the Four Gods cannot even be calculated in billions.
Sacrificial power, no matter how much you want to spend, is never enough.
It can only be spent wisely, gradually developing compatible version functionalities aligned with the Player Corps’ growth progress.
Thus, earning sacrificial power is a long and arduous journey.
Recently, he has taken note.
Besides hunting for resources, players have opened up a brand new sacrificial power acquisition route.
Which is the Black Market Trading Center set up by the Gold Coin Chamber of Commerce.
If this plan succeeds, it essentially builds a sacrificial power production center on Dream Island.
The model is quite similar to the Ancient God Arena.
Both derive energy through rules, and this part of derivative energy can be converted into sacrificial power.
The difference lies in the Ancient God’s profound heritage and straightforward customer acquisition approach.
Racing through major seas, grabbing anyone that looks pleasing.
Whereas the most challenging part of the player’s Black Market Trading Center is customer acquisition in the early stage, requiring constant trips to various Alien Race Islands, seeking to establish trust.
But once trust is established, the influence of the Dream Island Trading Market will gradually spread across the major seas, attracting a large number of trade clients, and the future sacrificial power output will undoubtedly be significant.
This is a sacrificial power output route that will continue growing over time.
Compared to the Ancient God Arena, both are resource production through rules, yet their usage methods differ vastly.
In his view, there are many ways to acquire resources through rules.
Rank the known forces using the method of deriving resources through rules.
The first tier is definitely the Reverse Tide Army, which explosively produces rule energy by initiating wars, akin to printing money.
The second tier is the Ancient God Race and the Lord of Jile, acquiring customers by capturing, allowing clients to produce rule energy.
The third tier is the current players, trying to establish resources capable of producing rule energy through contact, errands, and various means.
So with strength, one takes shortcuts.
Without strength, one engages in operations.
This point is something that a certain evil boss of a particular mountain range evidently understands deeply.
