398 Super Kobold
"Our group is farming monsters, is there anything wrong with Sister Zero? Disgusting~"
"Our boss has something to do with you! Disgusting~"
"Your boss? Chinese parasol tree? He's coming to Auraon? Wait for me, I'll be back right away! Disgusting~"
Waiting for Lin Linling to put down the stone in her hand, Wutong was very curious to pick it up and take a look, it turned out to be a strange piece of equipment: [Communication Stone], this kind of stone is usually in pairs, and both holders can communicate instantly through this stone.
Generally speaking, the value of [Strange Things] level equipment is difficult to define, and at the same time, the types are also strange, and the functions are even more ever-changing, it is not listed in the normal equipment grade, and the number is not rare, among which there are many auxiliary or functional items, and there are few practical defensive equipment and offensive weapons.
At present, the [Communication Stone] in Wutong's hand is a low-level strange object, but this thing effectively solves the problem that players cannot communicate over long distances, you must know that in "Endless", players do not have the "chat channel" or "SMS system" function used in other traditional online games.
Unless you happen to be nearby, you can still use the natural ability of [Communication Roar], otherwise, if you want to communicate with friends in other areas, you can only rely on leaving a message, leaving a message, or writing a letter on the message board of the Mercenary Guild or the Adventurer's Guild.
Later, players invented the "Flying Pigeon Story" method, through the domestication of certain avian animal companions, to send messages to each other, but this method is extremely inefficient, the possibility of loss is relatively large, there will always be some lowly archers, or ranged professions, when they see a flying creature across their heads. You can't help but "Boom! "Shoot it down and see what is written on the little slip of paper tied to the legs of the poor little birds, and some of the more secret information, in this case, has no secrecy at all.
"Where did this thing come from?" Sycamore was curious.
"When the kobolds in [Dallas Travan] become stronger, they can burst out of this kind of thing. The kobold squad leader has a certain chance of exploding. But it's hard to make a pair, and it took me a lot of money to get it. In addition, as the level of the kobolds increases, their equipment is also much better. That's why everyone is happy to brush them."
Lin Linling handed the small box in her hand to Wutong to see, there were a total of more than a dozen ordinary pebbles that looked inconspicuous, the black-brown stone was even a little rough, with irregular white stripes, if it was thrown on the river beach, no one could find it again.
"It's not difficult to hit this kind of [Communication Stone], and it occasionally comes out of kobolds above the captain level. But the problem is that this thing is a pair, and it is difficult to happen to meet two that are connected to each other, after all, no one will carry both at the same time, so everyone hits the back. It's all about staying, and then calling if it's okay to see if anyone calls the other one. ”
Lin Linling said, and took out a small wooden box one foot square from her pocket, which was full of a single [communication stone]: "If someone hits another one, they can exchange it with each other, or simply buy it, but those who have another one will usually ask for a sky-high price." That's why the explosion rate of this [Communication Stone] is not low, but the price has been high. ”
"How much does this thing cost?"
Sycamore curiously picked up a "Hey! Feed! Twice. Then I heard a sound like a puppy barking from inside.
"That's kobold talking"
Lin Linling smiled: "This shows that the stone in your hand corresponds to another one on the kobold's body." If it's a single stone, it's not expensive. 500 standard gold coins each, but if it is a pair, it is 1500 standard gold coins sold to the aboriginal alchemy shop, and the minimum gold coin sold to the player is 3000 gold coins, and if it is a dead asking price, it is not impossible to sell it for a pair of 5000 gold coins. ”
Wutong listened to the staggering, although the current production of gold coins, because of the player's level and strength improvement, and greatly improved, resulting in a large dive in the exchange ratio of gold coins and real coins, from the original 1:1350, all the way to 1:300, and then jumped again to 1:10~1:20, and has been stable for a long time!
According to the speculation and estimation of financial professionals like Uncle Butler, the exchange price of a standard gold coin and real currency should drop to below 1:10 within one to three months in the game, and then stabilize for a long time. ..., of course, this stability is not absolute, but relative, once the economy in the game, affected by the course of the game and the events of the game, and fluctuate violently, then the exchange price will also change.
――――As a digression, the number of words in this paragraph is not included in the VIP charging content.
[Trouble: The exchange ratio between this gold coin and the real currency is set by me after referring to the relevant information and the real gold price and the real price, theoretically speaking, it is "relatively" in line with the authenticity and rationality, of course, this is only a reasonable party, and the habitual egg pain is an exquisite behavior, only for reference, and it should not be accurate.
In the "True Principal Material Plane", the current price of gold fluctuates around 400 yuan, and the gold content of a standard gold coin in "Endless" is 5%, and a standard gold coin has a diameter of 20 mm, a thickness of 1.6 mm, and a weight of 5 grams.
(Approximately the size of 5 dimes in reality, you can directly think that the size of the gold coin is a pennie coin, and the size of the silver coin is a one-yuan coin, and the details are not reasonable and can be ignored.) )
In this way, the gold content of a standard gold coin is about 0.25 grams, which is 100 yuan, but according to the 10 times the virtual value I set in the game, the actual price of a standard gold coin should be 10 yuan.
But considering the "inflation" in the game (in-game prices fluctuate with the amount of production produced. )
and "non-reciprocal values" (60 silver coins for 1 pound of pork in the game, which is equivalent to six yuan in RMB, Nima went to buy fifteen yuan for a pound of pork ribs yesterday!) )
Therefore, I think it is more appropriate to set the final stable price of a standard gold coin at 1:1, and it is also convenient to explain the rationality of the huge amount of equipment in the later stage, otherwise, tens of millions of real coins are too exaggerated for one piece of equipment.
Although speaking of the equipment in the game. Even if it is worth tens of millions of real coins, it may not be sold, but this is not a real online game after all, but a game novel.
-- That's all the nonsense. The following text:
But. 3,000 gold coins, if thrown on the virtual trading platform, even according to the current minimum exchange rate of 1:10, is almost equivalent to 30,000 real coins. For ordinary salaried people with an average salary of 1,000 yuan per month in reality, spending 30,000 cash to buy a trivial auxiliary in the game. Props, it's simply a ** behavior, this price is enough to buy an ultra-luxury limited edition personal terminal!
Wutong shook his head, this thing is probably used by player organizations such as guilds, and it can only be used for one-on-one calls. No casual player is crazy enough to spend tens of thousands of dollars on this thing.
Lin Linling's box used to hold the [Communication Stone] looked like it was specially made, and the rows of recesses inside were inlaid with stones with famous brands, all of which were used to contact the heads of various departments. It can also be regarded as solving the problem of communication between the personnel of the "Secret Shadow Guild" scattered to various countries in the game.
In the stone in Wutong's hand, there was still a kobold barking roar, but no one could understand what it was saying, and Schneider, the pseudo-dragon lying next to Wutong, suddenly flapped his wings, flew onto the log table, and yelled at the stone in Wutong's hand, and suddenly there was no sound on the other side.
Everyone was stunned, and Wutong asked strangely: "Schneider!" What do you tell it? What language is it? ”
Counting the tail twice the length of the body, the pseudosaurus is only one meter long. Although because of the problem of vocal cord structure, he can't speak directly like Firebird Leilin. But its telepathic ability allows it to communicate with anyone.
"This stupid guy. It's a dragon, and it's a place for us to join it! ”
The pseudo-dragon Schneider rarely saw it, and from its long pointed dragon face, which looked obscene and felt obscene, showed a proud and proud expression: "These erect lizards are not as pure as my blood, and this country dragon is embarrassed to shout!" I'm letting it fuck off! ”
Wutong Khan, listening to its tone, swollen like a rich and handsome person of the eighth level of Asian American standard language, despising the taste of a short and poor standard language with the taste of a rural dialect? What's that pride? In addition to the appearance of the pseudo-dragon at first glance, the blood relationship has nothing to do with the dragon, right?
"Wait!"
Wutong's eyes suddenly lit up: "Schneider, do you understand what they say?" ”
"Of course!" ..., Schneider was triumphant and raised his head proudly: "Although their accents are very strong, after all, they are a language derived from the dragon language system, and I can certainly understand it if I know dragon language!" ”
"And where did it say we should go and join it?" Sycamore's eyes are getting brighter and brighter.
Schneider, who was squatting, was stunned for a moment, and spread out his paws with only four fingers very humanely: "It said that we should go to the hunting ground of 'the rotten third big tree to the left, and the breadfruit tree that does not bear fruit to the right'."
What kind of landmarks are these? It seems that this place is only understood by the kobold themselves.
As smart as Lin Linling, she immediately understood why Wutong asked the pseudo-dragon Schneider so much, Schneider, who understands dragon language, is like a translator, if he can know the other party's location from the conversation, the kobold on the other side is carrying another [communication stone]! Wouldn't it be possible to touch it and kill it?
But the kobolds are so strange that in the reckless Forest of Will, you ask them to go up to find the "third rotten tree" and the "breadfruit tree that doesn't bear fruit"?
Although it is only two or three thousand gold coins, it is not an expensive item for the current net worth of the Sycamore, but if they can get enough [Communication Stones], they can solve the problem of long-distance communication, and the disappointed Sycamore was just about to give up, and suddenly it occurred to him that they didn't know where the landmarks of the kobolds' dialect dragon language were referring to, but the kobolds knew!
If you go and catch a kobold, or go directly to the slave market and buy a kobold slave, won't you know the location of the other party? What's more, let the kobold slaves trick each other over. And if they are ambushed somewhere
Lin Linling obviously also thought of this method, and suddenly gasped, the big guy seemed to only think of beating the kobold captain, but he didn't think of using this method to defraud the kobold! However, if you don't know the dragon language, this kind of trap won't be successful.
He glanced at Sycamore. Lin Linling immediately used the [Communication Stone] to notify the lean pig who was in charge of the business of the "Secret Shadow Guild" in the Duchy of Adele. Let him send his men to secretly buy up all the scattered [Communication Stones] on the market!
At present, the major guilds, as well as the player forces, have obtained pairs of [Communication Stones] for their own use, and rarely for sale. The [Communication Stones] on the market usually fall into the hands of these wealthy forces, and it is difficult for ordinary players to get their hands on them, firstly, it is expensive and difficult to get together, and secondly, it is difficult for this thing to be played in a small number of people. So, if you can get a lot of [Transmission Stones], whether you use them for sale or for your own use, you will definitely make a lot of money!
Although Sycamore's approach is still just an idea. I don't know if it can be realized, so it's a bit risky and risky to buy a single [Communication Stone] on the player's market immediately, but considering that once the [Communication Stone] of 500 standard gold coins is matched, the price will directly increase several times, this risk is definitely worth taking!
As he was talking, Infinity, who had worked with him, hurried back with a few of his subordinates. As soon as we met, I warmly hugged Wutong.
He's going to be so enthusiastic, except that everyone is a "Platinum Supreme" player. also because of the long-standing cooperative relationship between the two sides, the "Blood Piercing Mercenary Group" under his name. At present, he is a very strong partner with the "Secret Shadow Guild", and after seeing the true strength shown by this demonic mage, I believe that no one will not want to maintain a good relationship with him and become his friend, it is too dangerous.
After looking at the [Flame Mage Set] on Wutong's body with envious, jealous and hateful eyes, he said infinitely strangely: "Brother Wutong, where have you been lately?" Since everyone took office, they haven't seen you appear? Where did you hide and get rich? ”
Wutong shrugged his shoulders and said helplessly: "You know, mage, you can't compare with the players of your warrior route!" We mages have to study hard and make progress every day! ”
"Hehe" laughed twice, infinitely revealing a "Believe in you to have a ghost!" With his news channels, he naturally wouldn't know that the uproar some time ago "Inaugural Tour" was the handiwork of Wutong.
Even Infinity was surprised by the sudden rise of the Principality of Adele, the Secret Shadow Guild, this unknown guild actually has such a strong strength, not only has formed a power network covering the Principality of Adele in a short period of time, it is said that in other countries, there are also their power networks, it is said that behind them, there is a mysterious Chamber of Commerce force in operation! ..., not to mention, it is quite difficult for players to even form a mercenary group at present, "Secret Shadow Guild" already has a background in the Chamber of Commerce, and the existence of the Chamber of Commerce means that the Guild has abundant game funds and resources to operate, which is something that those old large guilds can't do.
I have never heard of the big man on the "Supreme Platinum Super Player List", or the consortium, who did this in "Endless", after all, "Endless" is not a game that can be controlled by money, power and manpower like traditional online games.
Such a mysterious Supreme Platinum and such a mysterious guild, although I don't know their origin and background, but dealing with them well will be of great benefit to the forces behind Infinity in the future development of "Endless"!
At this point, in the previous inaugural mission, unlimited they have already eaten the sweetness.
"I came to you to inquire, I heard that your mercenary group has organized [Dallas Cui Fan] a few times? What's going on inside now? Wutong asked directly.
"[Dallas Trifan]? Don't mention it! We"
Infinite said half a sentence depressedly, and suddenly his eyes lit up: "You plan to rush to the second floor of [Dallas Cui Fan]?" ”
After all, he is a master on the list of "Super Player", Wutong just asked, and was immediately sensed by Infinite Sense of his intentions, and Infinite smiled: "Task? Count us in? ”
Wutong shrugged his shoulders and agreed, this mode of task sharing is very common in "Endless", the task owner, and does not have to pay anything, nor will he lose anything, but players who participate in the task usually get a corresponding reward, and the information is exchanged for task sharing, which is very fair.
Besides, if you want to infiltrate [Dallas Cui Fan], Wutong estimates that just a few of them may not have enough manpower, after all, their professional equipment is far less than that of the supreme platinum master like Infinity, and the personnel under his command are complete.
Infinite is not verbose, as soon as Wutong agreed to his participation, he immediately began to explain their several painful experiences of rushing [Dallas Cui Fan]: "Half a month ago, my "Blood Piercing Mercenary Group" was established, and I planned to rush [Dallas Cui Fan] to get some benefits, but after we entered the secret passage you took us to last time, we found that it had changed a lot!" ”
The last time they went, the good things in [Dallas Cui Fan] were actually not taken away except for some portable, and a large amount of ore was still piled up in it, which was quite a huge amount of wealth, and the strength and manpower were abundant, of course, they were not willing to give up that large pile of glittering ore, and the mercenary group had just been established, so they planned to rush in and loot it.
"Don't say that after opening, we don't have time to go to the second floor at all, even the area of the first floor has been expanded dozens of times, and those kobolds don't know what's wrong, like what hormones they eat, one by one they are so fierce that they can't do it, all of our mercenary group members are formal occupations, but after entering from the secret passage, before they reached the mine, they were directly wiped out by a group of kobold miners who rushed out with hoes!"
The infinite description made Wutong swallow their saliva involuntarily, the last time they went, the level of the kobold miners in [Dallas Cui Fan] was about level 10, and the higher foreman was only level 15 to level 20, but according to the infinite description, the kobold miners in [Dallas Cui Fan] were at least 1st order 20+20+20+20 level (level 80) of the powerful monster, and the foreman was at least level 100, and his strength had increased several times!
"This is just kobold miners, those kobold warriors, kobold guerrillas, kobold slingers, kobold warlocks, there is simply no way to fight, we will die in one face, just from the secret passage through the mine, into the first floor of [Dallas Trifan], we have been wiped out more than three times!"
Infinite said very hurtly: "Later, I don't know if it was because we walked too much from the secret passage or what, we led the kobold to the vicinity of the secret passage, and the secret passage was discovered by the kobolds, but now the secret passage is full of kobolds, and they can't go at all!" ”
"I'll rub!"
Wutong was dumbfounded, if the secret passage couldn't be walked, wouldn't he have to clear it directly from the [Dak Kobold Tribe] on the ground, and then enter through the entrance in the center of the tribe?
This Nima is no longer infiltrating, but attacking!
This [Dak kobold tribe] that occupies [Dallas Cui Fan] has at least a hundred thousand kobold population, once it is alarmed, it will be a steady stream of rushing over, and there is no need to attract blame at all, how can it be cleared?
The most important thing is that the kobold in the current [Dak kobold tribe] is not an ordinary kobold, but a super kobold whose strength has increased several times!
