Chapter Twenty-Three: The Horror of the Players
Xia Qi casually put aside the map of the salt mine and the drawings of the canoe production, the thing is a good thing, but it is a little inappropriate for the time being, after all, it is still raining heavily outside.
"Can you tell me what the Immortal Pill does?"
Then, the slightly surprised voice of the little light man appeared.
"You got the elixir? It's really a lucky little guy, you must know that I ...... at the beginning" Speaking of this, Xiaoguangren immediately stopped talking.
"What?" Xia Qi was a little confused.
"Ahem...... It's nothing, let's go back to the issue of the Immortal Pill. ”
You must have said something terrible, right?
But Xiaoguangren didn't want to say it, Xia Qi couldn't force him to ask, right? It's hard to hug your thighs, but don't let it go again.
"I ask you, what do you think is the most important thing in this game?"
What is the most important?
Xia Qi thought for a while and asked, "Is it the population?" ”
"Yes and no."
"That's technology?"
"Yes and no."
"That ......"
"Yes and no."
No matter what he said next, Xiaoguangren's answer was only one, "yes and no".
Xia Qi was a little speechless, and said angrily: "What the hell is that?" ”
"Lifespan, it's lifespan!"
Xia Qi was thoughtful, and Xiaoguangren continued: "Let me ask you, how many years does it take for a civilization to develop from ancient times to the present? Even if there are players involved, this time will probably not be short, right? ”
Hearing Xiaoguangren's words, Xia Qi's eyes were instantly filled with horror!
yes, how did he ignore the most important point?
According to the records on the Blue Star, the Blue Star Human Beings have lasted for two to three million years in the Paleolithic Age alone, about 10,000 years from the modern society, and entered the Neolithic Age.
As Xiaoguangren said, even if there are players involved, the time is rapidly shortened, and this time is probably not short.
And as a normal human being, being able to live to the age of eighty or ninety is considered a high life, eighty or ninety years old and two million years, which is tens of thousands of times the difference!
Xia Qi, as a normal human being, wants to run and maintain a real and large civilization, no matter how you think about it, it is a little unrealistic.
But then Xiaoguangren's words made Xia Qi return to reality, and even had a feeling of soul soaring.
"However, this matter is not impossible to solve."
Xia Qi hurriedly said: "What way?" ”
"You can spend 10,000 Civilization Points per year, so that your age will be frozen directly to your peak. How, don't you think it's cheap, you only need 10,000 civilization points per year, and you can maintain immortality. ”
Xia Qi nodded subconsciously, but then reacted, what a ghost! You know, his current civilization points are only in his early days, and he doesn't know how long it will take to get together 10,000 points.
And, he vaguely felt that things were not so simple.
"Didn't you get to the point?" Xia Qi asked.
"Yes, you're very responsive." Xiaoguangren praised it.
Then he added, "There are two points. One thing is, 10,000 civilization points is cheap, but what if you want to give some other people an extra life? Wenchen generals, women and children, friends...... How many people can you support, and for how long? ”
I repeat, 10,000 civilization points is really a lot. Xia Qi didn't bother to complain.
"The second point. You seem to have a misunderstanding, let me ask you, what is the first thing that comes to mind when you hear that you can extend your life indefinitely? ”
Xia Qi tentatively spoke: "Immortality? ”
Xiaoguangren corrected: "Remember, it is immortality, not immortality. ”
"In other words, even if your life has been extended by many years, if I cut off your head with a knife, you will still die?" Xia Qi's reaction was quick and immediately understood the point.
Hikaratus: That's true, but why do I feel so cold on my neck?
“...... That's right. ”
Anyway, Xia Qi's mood finally calmed down. When he heard Xiaoguangren's reminder before and realized that he was going to die, Xia Qi was really panicked.
Whether it was immortality or immortality, Xia Qi finally saw a glimmer of hope for seeing the society first.
It's just that in this way, the temptation to prolong life is significantly reduced.
It can't be said that there is no temptation, it can only be said that his expectations were too high at first, but in the end it turned out that it seemed to be completely different. But in any case, Xia Qi can be regarded as having no worries about lifespan.
"By the way, I just heard you say that, can Ziming in my civilization also extend his life?"
"That's right. After all, you also know that people with great potential and talent are not everywhere. ”
"That's good."
Hearing Xiaoguangren's answer, Xia Qi breathed a sigh of relief. When I was in the game before, the game characters in it had the setting of lifespan, and the death of every five-star character, Xia Qi would have a long time in pain, and that was only in the game.
Now that the game has become a reality, and they have lived together for so long, Xia Qi doesn't even dare to think about it.
It's just that......
"But in this way, with the development of civilization, the number of people who need to continue their lives in the later stage will definitely increase, and each person needs a year's civilization points for a year, so what if there are ten or even hundreds of people? In addition, development projects also need to use civilization points, and the later the development is, the easier it is to collapse in September, right? ”
"That's right, so in order to avoid crashing in the later stages because you need a lot of civilization points, you need to make certain trade-offs at that time. Or go on a war frenzy to snatch Civilization Points from the player, after all, every war can take half of the Civilization Points of the loser. ”
"Is it the same if you kill a player?" Xia Qi asked suddenly.
"Theoretically, if you kill a player, you can earn more Civilization Points."
Xia Qi remembered Pu Bancheng in front of him, and in the end he only gave him a dozen civilization points, and he was really a poor ghost.
After thinking about it, Xia Qi asked again: "In addition to using Civilization Points, is there a solution once and for all?" ”
"There is a way to do it once and for all, and this point has to mention the elixir in your hand."
"Are you saying that as long as I eat this pill, I can live forever?" Xia Qi asked.
"Yes."
Xia Qi, who received an affirmative answer, held the Immortal Pill in his hand tightly. Immortal! How many emperors have pursued it all their lives.
In order to live forever, Qin Shi Huang asked Xu Fu to cross the sea with 3,000 boys and girls and countless gold, silver and jewelry.
Tang Taizong's martial arts and martial arts eventually died because he took a large amount of pills, which led to heavy metal poisoning.
From ancient times to the present, there are too many stories about the superior seeking immortality, but in the end, the chicken flies and the egg beats.
"It's just that the Immortal Pill can only be opened in the Golden Treasure Chest? Isn't that too rare? ”
"No, in addition to being opened in gold-level treasure chests, you can also exchange merit points in the merit shop, and you can exchange them for one for only 100,000 merit points."
Meritorious store?
Xia Qiyan opened the game panel when he heard this, and sure enough, he saw that there was a new meritorious store.
After entering the meritorious store, there was only one product in it, which was the elixir that Xiaoguangren said, which was priced at 100,000 meritorious points.
At this price, Xia Qiren is numb, and he is only a few hundred meritorious points now.
What's more, Xia Qi is thinking about whether it is cost-effective to use civilization points to extend the life of his subordinates, or whether it is cost-effective to use the Immortal Pill.
And the price of the first longevity pill, as well as the rarity.
As Xiaoguangren said just now, it is immortality rather than immortality.
Think about it, if you just used an immortal pill for your subordinates, and the subordinate died within a few days, wouldn't you have to die at a loss?
So if you want to die, it's more cost-effective to be civilized, especially if you're a fierce general, it's the most cost-effective to continue your life year after year.
Seeing that Xia Qi had no problem, Xiaoguangren left with him, and he seemed to be very busy.
Looking at the Immortal Pill in his hand and thinking about it, Xia Qi still put it into the system warehouse.
I'm not even in the prime of life now, and I still have a long time to prolong my life, so let's save it for emergencies.
Unfortunately, this system repository can only store what the system produces. It's like something they made themselves, and they can't keep it in it.
Just when Xia Qi was struggling with the matter of the Immortal Pill, his battle with that Pu Bancheng caused an uproar among other players.
After a period of research, players finally roughly figured out the effect of this leaderboard, and when they found people who knew each other well, added friends, or exchanged feelings, they didn't know which player it was, and suddenly found that the leaderboard had changed.
Xia Qi, who ranked first, changed the number that was originally zero to 15, and Pu Bancheng, a player from the Western Eight Kingdoms who was ranked 25 at first, first turned gray, and then disappeared from the top of the leaderboard.
"This guy won't be killed by Xia Qi, right?"
"Is it Park Bancheng who took the initiative to provoke, or is it ......"
Players are speculating that if it's the former, it's fine, but if it's the latter, then the players are in danger.
"I think it's more likely that Park Bancheng will take the initiative to provoke, after all, when he was in the game, his performance was obvious to all."
In the previous competition, it was a hundred players who randomly landed on the same land and competed at the same time, so after Pu Bancheng was eliminated by Xia Qi, that guy was smashing the mouse and scolding, and all the players saw it.
"Knowing people and knowing faces but not knowing hearts, now it's not the world of Blue Star, it can be said that we are all the makers of this world, so ......"
Although this smacks of conspiracy theories, it has to be said that there is indeed a possibility in this regard.
However, the players discussed for a long time and did not discuss the reason, and finally someone decided to chat with Xia Qi privately, like him to ask what happened in the first place.
As a human being, the premise of all this depends on Xia Qi's willingness to speak.
