Chapter 4 This is Humanity
"Oh!!!!"
Immediately, fierce cheers rang out.
"Win!!"
"!!"
"These damn frogs!"
"If I had known I would have bought Louie, I knew that guy would win!"
Some people are sad, some are happy, but many more are frantically crowding the betting shops because they have to hurry up and place their bets less than 5 minutes before the next game starts!
.......
Fast forward a few minutes, and in the realm hall of the dungeon, all the goblins looked up at the display in the distance, which was showing the human beings starting to pick frogs, waiting for the gate to open the game.
"Is this really going to work?"
Maria, who was standing next to Lot, asked, turning her head to look at another large transparent container that was also floating at a high height next to the big screen, the energy reservoir.
Emotions are absorbed and automatically converted into energy and stored there.
However, the blue gas representing energy in the storage at this time was quite thin, and it seemed to be only a little bit, although the number on it was constantly beating, but the increase was really pitiful.
Hearing Maria's inquiry, Lot, who was sitting on the king's chair, shook his head with a smile and said:
"Let's wait and see."
The butler didn't say anything, and continued to look at the virtual screen in front of him.
Her body is a white dragon, and like goblins, they are monsters that belong to the dungeon.
And the monsters just think that humans like to go on adventures in dungeons, and then spark emotions in killing monsters, but they have no idea why humans like to do it.
Later, it was discovered that the humans were for the gold coins, so they immediately placed a large number of treasure chests on the road for them to take, but in doing so, in addition to increasing the number of people who came and went, their emotions gradually stabilized over time, and there was no change in their emotions, and the energy spent to make gold coins was actually spent.
Therefore, the monsters think that maybe humans are not here for the gold coins, so what are they here for?
In fact, in Lotter's opinion, the methods of obtaining gold coins are too simple, and not many people will make more waves about what is at their fingertips.
What you can't get will be cherished, and what others are the best will be, this is almost what most people think, and this, monsters probably will never understand.
Retracting his thoughts, Lott looked at the huge energy reservoir next to him.
Each adventurer will provide 1~3 energy points to the dungeon when they are nervous and worried, and more than 10 or 15 when they are happy and sad.
The stronger the strength, the greater the energy.
The daily income of the entire dungeon is about 6000~7000 points - this is only to maintain expenses, many monsters have stopped operating because of the lack of energy supply, and the goblins have been lacking supplies for a long time, and some people have begun to languish - if this continues, the whole dungeon will have an accident.
But now.....
As the on-screen game began, the goblins stared in shock at the numbers in their memory that were growing exponentially in exponential multiples.
"The energy is constantly increasing! It continues to increase!! ”
"So fast!"
"Oh my God!"
In a few minutes, it went straight up to more than 5,000 points?!
This was absolutely unimaginable before - a few minutes is almost catching up with the previous 1 day's income?
How is this possible?!
Humans just want to get those gold coins? How come I haven't been so excited before?!
Despite the goblins' incredulous expressions, facts speak louder than words, and the data in the energy reservoir continues to soar.
When the frog named Louis wins, all the humans fall silent, and the data in the memory suddenly stops beating, so that all the goblins look there with bated breath.
"Oh——!!"
As the humans on the screen erupted in a large number of roars, the memory reading instantly increased by more than 8,000 points!
Just this moment is comparable to the previous day's income, plus the first few minutes, a round of frog racing, a total of 15,000 points!!
A few minutes is worth more than 2 days of revenue, and that number will have to skyrocket again as the next event begins!
Oh, my God......
The whole hall of the realm was silent, but then there was a burst of applause - Maria stood upstairs, clapping involuntarily - although she didn't know what her previous income was, she was really shocked just now, not referring to energy, but Lott had mentioned to her before: the gains and losses of money are directly linked to emotions - it turned out to be true?!
When the goblins below heard the applause, they also hurriedly clapped their hands, and suddenly the applause was thunderous, and they were all excited - judging from this trial operation, the lord's future plan is two hundred percent feasible!
The dungeon is finally saved!
"How Maria?"
Lott sat on the chair while crossing Erlang's legs, shaking the wine glass, looking at the front with a domineering president's posture, and asked with a smile, "Big harvest, I didn't lie to you, right?" ”
Maria leaned over and said respectfully, "I didn't expect humans to be so excited, but why hasn't this happened before?" ”
Maria sighed as she regained her calm expression, which should be said to be facial paralysis.
Lott looked at her cold and sluggish face, and said with a meaningful smile:
"It's the same as when we get energy."
"I understand that."
"So Maria, what would you do if someone offered to give you energy?"
"I'll be happy."
"What about the non-stop delivery of you?"
"I'll be even happier."
Lott was a little speechless for a moment, and asked again:
"And you can find a whole bunch of energy on the side of the road?"
"I'm going to feel even happier."
MD, this topic can't go on.
Lott said helplessly:
"Human beings are different, what they need is a surprise, even if they give them money, after a long time, when they find gold coins on the side of the road again, they will only put it away without any fluctuations in their hearts. When you get used to something or something for a long time, you will become inert. ”
Hearing this, Maria tilted her head and thought for a long time, but still didn't understand why.
“...... I don't understand, shouldn't I be happy if I have energy? ”
Lott immediately pinched the bridge of his nose, and wondered if the housekeeper was too stupid, or if all the monsters were so virtuous, and when he thought of the celebratory and cheerful appearance of the goblins below, he finally concluded:
All monsters are this single brain circuit, and they don't understand what humans really want.
Thinking of this, Lott finally spread his hands helplessly and said:
"Maybe you don't understand it very well, but I can only say that for human beings, the more they can't get it, the more they will cherish it."
"Sounds so cheap."
Maria gave a pertinent assessment, and Lott smiled noncommittally, then pointed to the designated adventurer mercenary named Jill on the screen and said:
"When we asked the monster to give him gold coins before, what was the energy index generated?"
"Five o'clock." Maria replied quickly.
"So now when he wins, how much."
As Lot's voice fell, the goblins hurriedly called up the emotional indicator named Jill, and there was a big 30 on it! And it's still going on and on! Apparently too excited to do it.
Why is this happening?! There was no fluctuation in his heart when he gave him money for nothing, but he was so excited when he won money?
The monsters here probably can't even think of it.
"This is human."
Lott sighed that at this time, there were some changes on the screen..... (To be continued)
