214 Spirit Stone Consumption Curve
Unlike the search for the reason for the disappearance of the person's body, the search for how the person appears requires a higher level of monitoring points, both in terms of accuracy and quantity.
After all, corpses are dead, static targets, and to see how these corpses disappear, all you need to do is point the camera at them. But the people who are born again ......
At least Wu Xiaoqing had no idea how the collection team decided on these observation points.
Yevgeny probably explained to him how it works—it's based on big data screening.
Specifically, everyone who comes to the space station is paid a return visit, and everyone is asked to mark the location of each rebirth they have experienced on the map. Then the highly overlapping areas of these locations were carefully screened, and the areas suitable for monitoring were selected, and finally Wu Xiaoqing was asked to install them.
Because of the tight time and heavy tasks, the intensity of Wu Xiaoqing and Yan Xiu's work in the past two days has also begun to increase, and they can complete the installation of a point in an average of one hour, and then they don't wait for the data to be verified, and fly directly to the next point at an ultra-high speed of 350 yards.
At the end of the day, Wu Xiaoqing can pretend to be about fifteen points - after loading on the road, he will no longer take the initiative to investigate, but just sleep to refresh his spirits.
Today is the fourth day, and in Yevgeny's monitoring footage, there are already more than 60 monitoring points in the area where Wu Xiaoqing has recently worked, that is, a small area of the Ascension Realm to the periphery, within a radius of about 2,000 kilometers.
The rich surveillance pictures also made Yevgeny's boring life on the space station exciting, and when he usually had nothing to do, he checked and filtered the historical pictures in the space station, those more informative content, the most important of which was the war.
Although this was the outer periphery of the Ascension Realm, compared to the area around the Nine Great Factions, the war was much inferior in terms of intensity and scale.
Many sects in this area have begun to give up fighting, and in the face of the invasion of the rebels, the strategy of many sects has changed from defending to running away with all the spirit stones.
Anyway, the sects here are all small sects, and the number of spirit stones accumulated is limited, and it is not difficult for dozens of disciples in the sect to use flying swords to carry them.
At this point, Yevgeny did not see the brutal, life-and-death positional warfare in the core area, but the form of war was more of a guerrilla warfare, and many sects now no longer have a "sect station" in the conventional sense, and have completely become wandering sects. When some sects go out to wander, they will also bring a signboard, and some sects will not even bring a signboard.
Among these wandering sects, some of them will take the initiative to have some contact with the rebels after a period of time, and the search and rescue team has filmed many trading scenes in the camera - since the rebels can't catch up with these sects, and these sects don't have many spirit stone reserves, they also feel that this is not a way to go on, so there is a trading space - these sects also want to exchange spirit stones for some soul devouring arrays.
After many small sects got the Soul Eater Array, they simply joined the ranks of the rebels, or they took the Soul Eater Array to work alone-since those who had nothing in the rebels dared to rob the Great Gate Sect with the Soul Eater Array, then why couldn't they, those from serious sects, do this?
And now that the aura is cut off, if the rebels fail, of course they will be the first to suffer, and the next ones to suffer are their peripheral sects.
Rather than sit and die, and be forced to run around by the rebels—this chaos itself will consume the small amount of spiritual energy reserves in the first place. It's better to just join the rebels - at least the rebels are looking pretty good for now.
As soon as this kind of atmosphere appeared, the entire periphery immediately began to "peace". Of course, the real reason is that the people on the periphery have already begun to converge towards the core area - because the aura reserves of the entire periphery have basically dried up, and they have to do so in order to survive.
As early as when analyzing the data of the rebirth location, the search and rescue team noticed a pattern, that is, the reborn area is largely more inclined to the peripheral area. In the outer areas, a considerable number of people are reborn in many abandoned desert islands on the island.
This characteristic of rebirth reveals two elements about the place of rebirth.
First, it is sparsely populated. Because the outer area itself is not densely populated with sects, even if there are sects, most of them are like the original Nine Heavens Gate, with only a few dozen people in a sect, occupying an island, leisurely.
Second, second, is the obscuration of vision. Take Yan Xiu's own personal experience as an example, every time he was reborn, he found that the place where he appeared was indoors. Sometimes it's alone, sometimes it's several, or even a dozen people together. But they don't necessarily have anything to do with each other.
These two elements actually have a common feature, that is, the process of rebirth focuses on secrecy, and the executor of this specific process is definitely unwilling to be discovered, so he deliberately avoided the core area where the nine major factions are located.
Before, Wu Xiaoqing was afraid of meeting people when he was on a mission, because encountering it meant danger and battle.
But after a few days, he was a little looking forward to seeing people again. Because now he is a little scared - all the places where he works and goes in and out all day are corpses, and except for Yan Xiu, no other living person can be seen. But their job is to come here to "catch ghosts", something that doesn't know whether it exists or not, and in what form.
"Didn't I remember you saying that there are no ghosts and gods in this world?" The two of them were resting in a cave, the light was very dim, Wu Xiaoqing looked a little nervous, originally Yan Xiu was patrolling outside, but Wu Xiaoqing called him in and talked to him.
"That's what I said," Wu Xiaoqing said, "but I'm still afraid." After Wu Xiaoqing finished speaking, he pointed to the pile of corpses in the corner of the cave and said, "What's more, there are so many dead people here, they will still live!" ”
"Even if they are reborn, they will not be in the same place again, not to mention that these corpses have not decomposed."
"What does rebirth have to do with the decomposition of corpses?"
"Of course there is," Yan said, "and it is usually only after the body has decomposed that one is reborn." For thousands of years, the Ascension Realm has been like this, and there has never been a counterexample. ”
"That's infiltrating enough...... In other words, it is possible for that little bug to fly in? Decomposing corpses? Wu Xiaoqing knew about that kind of bug, and he was afraid that the ghost would say it, but in fact, most of it was related to this kind of bug - this kind of insect can decompose the entire corpse by biting the corpse, so maybe if he bites him, he will be dead.
……
There are more than 400 people in Qianyangmen, and Bai Feng only brought out more than 100 people this time.
It's not that he thinks that there are too many people, but he is worried about wasting spirit stones, and he can't take care of a team of more than four hundred people.
When he was in the alliance, Yan Xiu had already noticed a tendency that many of the disciples who participated in the battle would often report the consumption of spirit stones more after the battle.
This is common knowledge in the army, and this was the case when he was in charge of the coalition army in the past. In the war, since the disciples have contributed to the war, they naturally want to take advantage of it. Before the battle of Spirit Island, Senior Brother specifically reminded Bai Feng about this issue - don't care about such things, the disciples want more spirit stones, as long as they are not excessive, give them to them.
This excessive standard usually has a huge room for ups and downs depending on the severity of the war.
For example, for ordinary patrols, if you use 10 spirit stones, you can report 11 or 12 at most, and earn two fractions. If it's small-scale and you need to go out to fight with flying swords, then it's half more. If you go up further, you often have to worry about your life when you go to war, and it is common to overrepay twice or three times.
In the battle of Soul Island, Bai Feng learned that the latest market was to use one and report three. At that time, he was reluctant to accept this price, because a considerable part of it came from the savings of Qianyangmen.
And in the battle with the rebels, Bai Feng knew that the market was already one and five.
After he announced that the Qianyang Sect was going to come out to find the secret of rebirth and carry out this task, the main elders expressed great dissatisfaction - in the closed-door meeting afterwards, they almost openly opposed this decision, feeling that this was the burden of the nine major factions, and wanted to use 20,000 spirit stones to directly send away all 400 of them.
No one thinks that this kind of whimsical idea can be realized, so many sects have not been found for thousands of years, how can it be that just a few hundred of them can be found in this troubled world? Even if they find it, what if they find it? Can it be guaranteed to be beneficial to the battle situation?
Under Bai Feng's pressure, the people of Qianyangmen still set off, but soon, Bai Feng noticed that the high loss of spirit stones along the way was terrifying—a little calculation could tell that the disciples were simply blindly reporting at a super high rate of more than ten times!
Needless to say, Bai Feng could also understand that the actions of these people were tacitly approved by those elders.
So in the end, Bai Feng didn't bring out the entire Qianyang Gate, what he took away was only a group of disciples he trusted the most and had the best relationship.
The rebels have almost formed a posture of encirclement of the nine major factions. But the encirclement was not tight—and the rebels never seemed to intend, or rather, had the ability to truly unite and make a real encirclement.
These rebels were strictly separated, scattered on a series of small islands on the outskirts of the Nine Factions, in groups of hundreds.
These large and small groups each maintain large and small spiritless areas, and some of the more dense areas have been connected into a single area, which is tens of kilometers deep. But in many more areas, these no-soul zones are independent of each other.
When the people of Qianyangmen went out through the gaps in these spiritless areas, they did not encounter any interception from them.
But Bai Feng knew that with the current battlefield situation, it would be easy for them to go out now, and when they came back later, I was afraid it would not be so simple.
