457. Invest in the future

The metal progenitor's thirst for spiritual constructs, whether it was Li Nuo, the Assassination Angel and the Book Angel, or the core of the "Command" plane, was considered a potential threat.

The core of the "Command" plane is "a big family", and the number of players under his command is too much.

In the face of the metal progenitor dragon that was eyeing it, it had a sense of urgency that did not care about the end.

With Li Nuo as the medium of communication, the two angels reached an indirect communication with the core of the "Command" plane.

The parties discussed a plan with relatively high feasibility.

That's "fishing".

Didn't the Metal Ancestral Dragon want to get a large number of spiritual constructs to help him explore the illusion space?

Isn't it some kind of cooperation with an angel consortium?

Well, let's take the initiative to send a batch of spiritual constructs to them.

These psionic structures were installed by Li Nuo through the back door, and became a kind of existence similar to a remote-controlled bomb.

Normally, the psychic structure would provide Li Nuo and the others with first-hand information from the phantom space.

At the critical moment, they will explode with a "bang", making the Metal Ancestral Dragon's plot fall short, and by the way, they will give themselves a trace of corpse destruction.

There are two difficulties with this approach.

One is that the back doors on the bodies of these spiritual constructs cannot be discovered by the Metal Ancestral Dragon and the Angel Enterprise Complex.

Secondly, the ultimate control of the spiritual structure must be in the hands of Li Nuo's side, and it must not be reduced to a puppet of the metal progenitor dragon like the spiritual structure on the transport ship.

These two difficulties are solved, and this plan is feasible in the real sense.

Researching how to install the backdoor is a technical issue for two angels, the Assassination Angel and the Book Angel.

As for how to maintain ultimate control of the spiritual structure after the metal progenitor dragon deeply eroded the spiritual structure, it is a matter for the core of the "Command" plane to consider.

Under this division of labor, Li Nuo has become the most idle person, in addition to giving tasks to young players every day and guiding them to plunder angel crystals, he is to delve into magic pets and enrich the types and products of magic eggs.

In order to mobilize the enthusiasm and subjective initiative of players to a greater extent, Li Nuo intimately provided a lottery activity.

Previously, for every 100 Angel Crystals sent, players could harvest 1 primary Angel Essence to provide nutrients for the Magic Egg.

Now, on top of this, Leno is rewarded with an additional random drawing of magic eggs.

The magic eggs in the hands of the players are obtained from the daily tasks of the academy and are of white quality.

The prize pool provided by Li Nuo contains green, blue, purple, orange, pink, red and other higher-quality magic eggs.

Any 100 consecutive draws, guaranteed green.

Any 300 consecutive draws will definitely come out blue.

Any 1000 consecutive draws will definitely produce purple.

Orange, pink, and red, looking at the face completely.

This kind of lottery routine can be said to be rotten on the street, but it can't stand its effectiveness.

Moreover, the lottery chances are awarded by completing loot tasks, which can be said to be very fair.

But soon, Li Nuo had to be impressed by the ingenuity of the players.

Among the players who call themselves "rib man" and "brick movers", some people have analyzed the prize pool.

This man wrote a long paragraph of data and text, which can be summed up in one sentence:

Instead of handing over the angel crystals to the academy to complete the task and reap the lottery opportunities, it is better to directly sell the angel crystals to those in need in exchange for real currency.

Regardless of whether this person's analysis and results are correct, the temptation of money is real anyway, and few people can resist the temptation from real money.

Imagine that.

Every time others follow the fleet on a mission, they decisively sell the angel crystals to merchants, guilds or buyers, and harvest the money for movie tickets, the money for going to the restaurant, the money for playing the two-dimensional eighteen-plus game, the money for buying milk powder, etc., to fill up the odds and pieces of life.

And you.

What do you gain beyond a thumb-sized bottle of serum and the boredom of waiting for a magical pet to break out of its shell.

People will always bend over real problems.

Even those "normal players" who are very disgusted with treating the game as a job, moving bricks in the game, and earning money to buy ribs in the game have to sell the angel crystals in their hands in the end, give up the lottery opportunity and essence, and instead reap the fullness of reality.

No way.

The benefits of selling Angel Crystals to others are simply too great.

When the unit price of angel crystals did not exceed 10 yuan, the brick moving party had already begun to sell them with all their might.

When the unit price of angel crystals reached 100 yuan, casual players began to be tempted, no longer fishing as an air force man, but instead driving a boat to grab angel crystals.

When the unit price of the angel crystal reached 200 yuan, the brick movers regretted breaking their thighs, only hating themselves for selling too early, and casual players changed to professional brick movers on the spot, and the group of self-proclaimed "normal players" had to put down their bodies and join the brick moving business.

When the unit price of angel crystals reached 300, 400, or even 500, most players thought the game was crazy.

It's just a game, how can its game items reach such an astonishing price.

While many players were debating who was buying Angel Crystals in a long-term, massive, and cost-effective manner, a video sent by the Cucumber Slices team went viral on social media.

"Sailors, players, big guys who are still in the dark, are you curious, why no matter how high the price rises, some people buy angel crystals in bulk?"

On the video screen, cucumber slices hold a crystal model of an angel crystal between their fingers, face the camera, and say in a solemn tone:

"Today, let's reveal the truth."

As soon as the screen turned, a group of "artificial angels" attacked the space station.

The voice of the cucumber slice came:

"Do not doubt your eyes. A team of artificial angels is besieging a logistics space station belonging to the Guardian Angel Group. ”

"Boom—"

The "artificial angel" fired a three-meter-diameter laser beam and violently bombarded the self-defense post outside the space station.

The video screen is getting closer and closer to the "artificial angel".

Some sharp-eyed viewers have already discovered that the helmets and breastplates of these "artificial angels" do not have the logo of the angel enterprise complex, but the guild emblem of the "Golden Dragon" guild is added.

"Yes, you read that right. These 'artificial angels' are not artificial angels in the true sense of the word. They are actually magical pets from the 'Golden Dragon' guild. Thanks to the continuous supply of angel crystals for the 'Golden Dragon' guild, the guild leader 'Golden Dragon in the Sky' has successfully hatched the first angel-shaped magic pet earlier today, which is the group you see now! Angel pets. ”

Cucumber slices deliberately accentuate the tone on the unit of "a group".

It was said earlier that the golden dragon hatched the first "one" angel pet in the sky, why did it say that it was a "group" later?

Cucumber slices knew that the audience would have doubts, and immediately presented the attribute interface of the magic pet.

Name: Cluster Battle Angel

Type: Magical pet

【Quality】Purple

【Features】

1. Swarm operations

This magical pet is divided into ten and fights in clusters in the form of ten individual individuals.

2. Life sharing

10 Cluster Battle Angels share life. Only killing these 10 Battle Angels at once will cause such Battle Angels to fall into a state of death.

3. The road to promotion

By continuously taking Angel Essence and slowly improving its quality, it is possible to be promoted to a higher-quality Battle Angel type magic pet in the future.

On the panel data released by Cucumber Slices, there is no information such as the skills, HP, attributes, etc. of the cluster battle angels.

But the introduction of the "Features" column alone is enough to dumb the players who watch the video.

"Wait, wait. Do we have any misconceptions about magical pets? ”

"Aren't magic pets pets? Why can you fight like a real artificial angel? ”

"Damn, we've been deceived. This TMD should be called a battle pet, not a magic pet! ”

"Then after having a magic pet to help the owner fight monsters, does the owner still use his own hands?"

Some players have already hatched small white pets through their own efforts.

At this moment, they looked down at the cats and dogs rolling in their arms, and they always felt a sense of powerlessness flowing from the bottom of their hearts.

Can you fight for some air?

Other people's magical pets will help their owners fight monsters, why are you still rolling around here and begging for magic feed?

A barrage crossed over the video:

"Is there a possibility that only a magical pet that has reached the level of purple quality can be called a combat pet? White, green, and blue magic pets really only have pet functions. ”

This barrage resonated strongly with the player community.

Some people wish they could draw purple pets as well;

Some people complain that the game is unfair, and the existence of the pet system has widened the gap between civilian players and local tyrant players;

Some people sprayed planning and operation, blaming them for not explaining the strength of magic pets clearly, causing themselves to sell many lottery opportunities, and missing the opportunity to draw orange quality magic pets in vain;

Some people scolded the boss for being confused, this is just a game, even if you can train a combat pet to help you fight, it is not worth investing so much money;

Some people say that the game has changed its flavor and is no longer the shape that old players remember.

All sorts of barrages floated by.

The cucumber slices in the video seemed to have expected that the discussion on the barrage at this time would be as vast as an ocean, so he deliberately paused for a few seconds before saying:

"I think everyone must be surprised that the 'Golden Dragon' Guild has invested heavily in cultivating purple-quality magic pets. It's just a game, is it worth investing so much money? When I got the news, I had the same question as everyone else. But soon, all my doubts were gone. Jin Long gave me a detailed introduction to the guild's strategy and development ideas, and the details are as follows..."

Cucumber Slices will tell the process of interviewing the golden dragon in the sky.

First of all, the place of registration of the "Golden Dragon" guild is the Joint Military Academy under the Unification Bureau. The guild as a whole is focused on increasing its reputation within the Unification Bureau and is committed to carrying out team-based combat missions issued by the Unification.

Secondly, the funds for the "Golden Dragon" guild to cultivate magical pets do not all come from the public's own funds. The allocation of the Bureau accounts for a large proportion.

Third, the significance of the combat magic pet is not limited to better looting angel crystals, but also to receiving more difficult team-based combat missions.

For example, the "Great Expedition" series of missions that has been repeatedly discussed by players over the past year or so.

Speaking of which, cucumber slices give some players who may not have heard of the "Great Expedition" series of quests.

The ultimate goal of this series of missions is to allow players to establish a base for the Unification Bureau in a strange galaxy full of cosmic monsters.

In other words, any player or group of players who participate in the "Great Expedition" series of missions and successfully defend the advance base can gain a piece of land.

In the eyes of many, many game guilds, the "Great Expedition" series of missions are used to obtain guild territory and even guild space stations.

It is only because of the extremely high difficulty of the mission and the very strong combat strength of the enemy that the "Great Expedition" series of missions will become a mission that no one has been able to complete so far.

Now, with the help of the Combat Magic Pet, the Golden Dragon Guild may be able to expand its territory for the Unification Bureau and harvest its own territory.

With territory, the subsequent benefits are as simple as water.

It can range from the rental income of the spawn points in the territory, to the income from territory trade, material mining, stargate pass, and so on.

All the income from the territory will cover the cost of cultivating combat magic pets in the past.

When the time comes to smooth out the costs, the guild will usher in better book figures and achieve long-term stable profits.

So, to sum up:

Investing in a combat magic pet may seem like a bottomless pit, but it's actually investing in the future.

The content of the cucumber slice in the video made the players sigh.

It's not that ordinary players can't think of the "territory" layer, but for them, "territory" is too far away and too high-end.

If you weren't in a big guild, it would be really difficult for ordinary people to associate combat magic pets with "territory".

It's right to think about it.

What is most needed for the Great Expedition?

It's the strength of the troops.

Where do the troops come from?

Buying a ship, chartering a ship, buying insurance, buying missiles, buying supplies, all of this all cost money.

If you can cultivate a large number of combat magic pets that can be constantly resurrected and grow, wouldn't this be equivalent to saving a lot of money?

After a little bit of cucumber slicing, most players immediately understood the true value of combat magic pets and angel crystals, and it is not an exaggeration to say that they are strategic resources.

Of course, there will still be a handful of players who will be mavericks and spray at the setting of combat magic pets.

But in any case, a huge movement with the ultimate goal of gaining territory, the accumulation of Great Expedition Capital as the internal driving force, and the connection of all players with money, lottery opportunities, and angel crystals as a link has completely taken shape.

Under the combined action of multiple factors, the number of angel crystals in the Black Hole Magic Academy has risen.

Li Nuo, who planned all this behind the scenes, estimated that in three months at most, he would be able to save enough angel crystals needed to rescue the assassination angels.

At that time, the overall strength of the players should be enough to help him raid the space station that sealed the assassination angel.
