When he came back from work on Monday, Liu Ronghua was not at home.

Log in to the game and see the goddess online, so I said hello.

The other party replied in seconds: "There are relatively few people in the gang at this time, so it's not good to team up for tasks." Why don't you just go with me to the field to collect medicinal herbs? ”

"Okay!" Sun Yimin readily agreed, "Just how to pick it?" ”

"Just keep up with me." The goddess said.

The two of them then teleported to the safe area of the level 60 field map "Huiji Mountain". This is a small village surrounded by boundless mountains.

Stepping out of the village, you enter the non-safe zone. The wilderness is sparsely populated, but it is full of beasts and monsters that attack humans. As the two of them marched all the way, a bunch of monsters were dragged behind them. It's just that these mobs don't have high attack power, but they won't be life-threatening.

The goddess stopped at a col and said, "You can help me fight the mobs, so that they don't disturb me from collecting medicinal herbs." ”

"Willing to help." Sun Yimin then picked up the halberd and cleaned up a bunch of monsters that followed him all the way.

I saw the goddess stay in front of a plant with bright yellow flowers, and there was an extra small tool in her hand, making an action of digging and collecting.

Then the plant in front of you disappears, and the system information bar in the lower right corner of the screen prompts: "Your teammate [Goddess Goddess] has obtained [Ganoderma lucidum] X1"

"What's the use of picking these?" Sun Yimin asked.

"Collect medicinal herbs and make medicines." The goddess replied as she busied.

"What medicines can you make?"

"Generally, there are two kinds of red potions that restore life and blue potions that restore energy."

"Aren't there similar medicines in the shops in town, so why should players make them themselves?" Sun asked.

"The red or blue medicine sold in the store instantly restores health or blue, for example, after taking the medicine, it instantly restores 5000 HP. However, the player's self-made medicine is generally continuously restored, such as convincing the potion to restore 500 health per second for 10 seconds. ”

"Then if that's the case, as long as you keep drinking medicine during the fight, you won't hang up?" Sun asked.

"Medicines can't be taken all the time, there is a cooling time. For example, the cooldown time of the medicine that continues to regenerate blood is generally 10 seconds, which means that if you eat the first pill, you can eat the second pill after 10 seconds at the earliest. ”

"Why did you design a feature that allows players to craft medicinal herbs? Sell all the drugs directly in the store soon after? It feels like a lot of work. Sun was puzzled.

"Potions from the shop and pills made by players can be stacked without conflicting cooldowns, which increases the recovery speed. In addition, medicine collection and medicine is one of the functions of the game life system, which gives players a chance to get rich through hard work and also increases the fun of the game. ”

"What is the system of life?" Sun asked.

"The living system, as the name suggests, is a system of living. Not everyone in the game world is willing to spend RMB, and the gold coins and items obtained by doing tasks and brushing copies are often not enough to sustain a living, and poor girls like me can only rely on collecting medicines and selling medicines if they want to improve their combat power, and add a little household ......"

Sun Yimin sighed: "It turns out that the game world still has trivial details of firewood, rice, oil and salt, which sounds very interesting. He asked again: "Are your more than 170,000 combat power completely obtained by your own hard work and collection of medicinal materials?" ”

"Hmm. If you don't collect medicinal herbs, it's not enough at all. I don't spend RMB. The goddess said.

"Haha, I'm just like you, I also adhere to the principle that the game doesn't cost money." Sun Yimin came with a handshake emoji. Then he asked, "Is it just hard to collect medicinal herbs?" ”

"It's a little tiring. But it's worth it. Seeing the combat power slowly rise every day is also quite fulfilling. ”

"Yes, it's just that why can't I collect the medicinal herbs here?" Sun asked.

"Collecting medicine is a life skill, and you need to go to the corresponding NPC to learn this skill before you can use it. Haven't you learned a skill yet? ”

"Where do you learn these skills?" Sun asked.

"Chang'an City. Find Zhang Zhongjing for medicine and pharmaceutical skills, and find Zhao Mingcheng for mining and refining. ”

"Then you wait for me, I'll go to Chang'an first?" Sun said.

"Even if you learn it now, you can't just come here to collect. You can only go to level 10 maps. ”

"Why?" Sun asked.

"These herbs are also graded." The goddess explained, "For example, the level 10 field map that grows is generally level 1 medicinal herbs, and the level 20 field map can collect level 2 medicinal herbs, and so on. Each level of medicinal materials can be made into the corresponding level of pills, and the higher the grade, the better the efficacy. Herb collection skills and pharmaceutical skills are also divided into levels, and you need to slowly accumulate experience points through continuous collection and refining to upgrade your skills. So in the beginning, you can only go to level 10 map collection, and you can only craft level 1 medicines. ”

"What potions can be made?" Sun asked.

"Levels 1-6 continue to regenerate, levels 1-6 continue to regenerate. There is also a special drug, Da Huandan. The goddess said.

"I see." Sun Dao, "So you also mentioned mining and refining just now, what is that for?" ”

"Mining is the collection of gem ore, and refining is the refining of gem ore into rough stone. These rough stones can be synthesized into finished gemstones. Finished gems are set on the equipment to improve the combat attributes of the equipment. ”

"You just said the level of medicinal materials, different levels of maps distribute different levels of medicinal materials, so is the gem mine divided into grades?"

"There is no level of gem mine, and the whole server only has a mine cave in Fuyu Mountain. However, mining skills are also graded. The higher the level, the more efficient the acquisition, and that's it. The level of mining skills needs to be increased by slowly accumulating experience points during gathering activities. ”

"I see," Sun Dao, "then which is more valuable to collect medicinal herbs or gem mines?" ”

"Gem mines are worth more." The goddess said.

"Why?" Sun asked.

"Medicinal herbs are all over every map, and they will grow and be inexhaustible when they are collected. However, gem mines are only available in the Fuyu Mountain Mine in the world, and the output is limited and is a scarce resource. And gem mines are in great demand. In addition to forging, the main way to improve the combat power of the character is to inlay gems in the equipment. The quality of the equipment and forging level of those great gods have long been at the top, so most of them pursue inlaying more advanced gems on their equipment. However, high-grade gems are very rare, as they require countless gem ores to craft. Until now, there are not a few great gods in the whole server, and the gems on their bodies are all top-notch. The gods' fanatical pursuit of gems has also led to a rise in the price of gem mines. Therefore, it is more profitable to mine gemstones. ”

"I see," Sun Yimin nodded, and said, "But the only gem ore resource in the whole server has been occupied by Sen Luo Tang, so most players can only make a living by collecting medicinal herbs, right?" ”

"That's right, because the gem mines are occupied, many players only have to collect medicinal herbs for their livelihood. This leads to an oversupply and can't afford to sell at a good price. The Senluotang gang occupies the gem mine, which makes it even more difficult for many people to afford finished gemstones. Therefore, most of the players on this server are oppressed and exploited by Xingtian and Sen Luotang."

"This is really too deceitful," Sun Yimin sighed, "So you have never been to collect gem mines?" ”

"I do mine once in a while." The goddess said.

"You're not from Senluotang, how can you get in?" Sun asked.

"Mo Lan took me there. She is the first lady of Sen Luo Tong and my best friend. ”

"I heard that Fuyu Mountain is an open map. Different gangs are free to attack. Aren't you afraid of being accidentally injured by the people of Senluotang in the mine? ”

"If Mo Lan leads the team to take me, they won't be able to attack me, and they won't be injured by mistake."

"Why?" Sun asked.

"Don't you know? The party function has a set of friends and relatives in the party. Once the Friends and Relatives party attribute is activated, all members of the party will be treated as if they were members of the clan to which the party leader belongs. Mo Lan teamed up to pull me in, and then set the attributes of the relatives and friends team, so that I would not be attacked by the people of Senluo Tang in Fuyu Mountain, even if I was injured by mistake. Members of the gang who hold the position of hall master or higher have the permission to set the attributes of the family and friends. Mo Lan is the hall master of Senluo Hall. ”

"So that's the case," Sun Dao said, "then in that case, you can go mining with Mo Lan every day to make more money, why bother to collect medicinal herbs?" ”

"Sister Mo Lan is very lazy and reluctant to go to the mine, not to mention that she is not short of money." The goddess said, "What's more, I'm not used to seeing the people of Senluo Hall occupying public resources like this. It makes me occasionally go to the Fuyu Mountain Mine to mine, as if it is their general gift, which is a bad feeling. ”

"Sen Luotang's gang is really a group of hooligans and bullies in the game world, hey society, it's really hateful!" Sun Yimin agreed.

"Yes! I really hope that there can be a person in the game world who can lead a powerful gang to overthrow the hegemony of Xingtian and return the right to collect this gem mine to all players in the world, so that everyone can mine! ”

"Your brother may be able to, you let him build the gang stronger enough to fight against Sen Luo Tang." Sun said.

"Come on," said the goddess, "I can see that the strength of the gang depends on the economic strength of the gang leader. Although my brother is also rich, he is still far from Xingtian. ”

"Indeed," Sun had to admit.

A topic was temporarily summarized, and the two entered a state of coldness. The goddess silently continued to collect medicinal herbs.

The goddess collected in this col for about 20 minutes, and basically the usable medicinal materials had been emptied. It takes some time for new herbs to grow back. So he led Sun Yimin to transfer his position.

Along the way, Sun Yimin asked curiously: "You have been picking for a long time, how much can you sell this material for medicine?" ”

"Hehe, that's it? Sell up to 50 gold coins. The goddess said without thinking.

"What? If you make money like this, you still have to die of exhaustion? It's better not to pick it up. Sun Yimin just thought that he could be self-reliant in the game, but now he has denied it.

"Hehe, you think it's so easy, do you know that I go as soon as I have time. I collected after work at noon, and no one did the task early in the evening after work. I'll go collect it first. ”

"This hard work is estimated to be more tiring than moving bricks in real life!" Sun Yimin sighed.

"Yes, if only I could hire someone to help me collect it every day for free, then it would be much easier to make money, hehe......"

"Hire someone, you can hire a child and give them lollipops every day." Sun Yimin joked.

"Haha, great idea......"
