Chapter XXVI Exchange of Interests

Ivus didn't actually know the exact process of the Advancement Ritual.

Mainly because there is no official dream map, the experience of players when they advance is not complete. Of those necessary ritual materials, only one or two are slightly more expensive, and the others are additional.

As long as you have these materials, you can open a copy.

Before level 50, the entrance to the advanced ceremony was lined up with a nine-person book, and there was only one place for each path. Then these nine people entered the door without fighting any mobs, and directly hit a random boss that was very easy to fight.

After playing the book, all players will randomly determine whether they have passed the book. The higher the level of the advanced book, the greater the probability of failure. Without using additional materials to increase the success rate, the number of people who advance through the Full Moon will be twice as high as during the New Moon.

In the beginning, the success rate was quite high. When level 9 advances to the second energy level, six out of nine people can clear the level, and even if there are three people in the crescent moon, they can advance smoothly; But as the level increases, it becomes more and more difficult to advance. When level 49 is advanced to level 50, only the Full Moon has at least one guarantee. It is even possible that all nine people will fail to advance in the Crescent Moon Dungeon.

Players are used to it, too.

It's like a card can't be shipped. I already think it's a normal thing.

Starting from level 59, the follow-up advanced book is a difficult single book.

In version 6.0, most paths were capped at level 85. Authority, balance, and wisdom were opened to 90 first, and other paths were unlocked in the future. The last advance of 89 to 90, the difficulty is scary. So much so that although the level cap is opened to level 90, the vast majority of players are stuck at level 89. Only a few bigwigs with liver and krypton and hand riding areas can really fill the level.

It is estimated that it will be until the level 90 upper limit of the Nine Paths is fully opened, and then the difficulty of the previous Paths will be specially lowered.

When the level 80 cap was opened before, this was officially done.

However, although Ivus does not know how the NPC progresses. But he understands at least one thing.

That is, when the NPC advances in the first 50 levels, it must also match nine people of the same level and different paths in the dream world. If you don't have nine people, the ritual can't be established - of course, a low-level advanced ritual can definitely make up enough people.

If they can get together, they will give priority to the nine people who are closest to them. If you can't get together locally, you'll go farther away to grab one or two, keeping the distance between the nine people as short as possible.

According to the explanation of the advanced ritual in the occult texts of the path of beauty, the advanced ritual is "looking at the moon and co-prospering, and the new moon is lost".

According to the speculation of the big guys in the players, maybe PVE is played during the full moon and PVP is played on the day of the new moon. This also explains why the success rate of rituals is higher during the full moon.

And tomorrow is the Full Moon, and it's a dungeon that requires a certain level of cooperation.

That is to say, tomorrow Ivas will enter the dream realm as a "dedication path". Sherlock is the path of wisdom.

Both the Equilibrium Path and the Authoritarian Path should be Avalons. It's hard to say where the advanced people of the other paths come from.

On the other hand, Sherlock and Oswald exchanged pleasantries for a while before getting down to business.

The thin, languid, seemingly unconcerned man took out a darkened book from his bosom.

Sherlock held the book upside down, handed the title downwards to the old butler, and said casually, "I've only come here this time to bring something for Mr. Kent for Ivus." ”

"I thought it would be a little girl who has no sense of time to do it."

Oswald apparently remembered the incident when Hyna was two hours late.

He handed the book to Evas, and he didn't have the name of the book himself.

This was Oswald's esteem for his masters as a steward—since the book was a gift from the Overseer to Ivas, he wouldn't have read it.

Ivus took the book, turned it around generously, and looked at its title.

The Pastoral Tantra.

It is also a tantric book. He wasn't impressed with the content.

But in terms of format, it should be an ancient skill of dedication......

It's a good reward. Ivus thought to himself.

It's not as rich as it is too rich—it can be called the ancient skill of the Tantra, at least at the level of the sacred skill of the Church. When Sherlock solves a major case for the Inspectorate, the Inspectorate will give him a tantric book on the path of wisdom.

…… It's such a simple low-level dungeon, and you give me such a good reward?

Why don't you give me a beating. I'm a little uneasy to hold this stuff.

"Please open the book and take a look, Mr. Evas. Make sure you can open the book normally. ”

Sherlock's expression was flat and his tone was low. Like a government employee working overtime, it has a cold smell of routine: "If you can't open the book, then I'm going to take it back to the Inspectorate." Mr. Kent will give you another tantric book that you can open. ”

Hearing this, Ivas roughly flipped over.

When I found that I could indeed open it, I didn't care about its contents, and closed it first and put it on my lap.

When Sherlock saw that Ivus had finished confirming, he gently removed the top hat he was wearing.

"Hello, Mr. Ewass."

Speaking faster than before, Sherlock relayed as usual: "Mr. Kent intends to hold a commendation meeting next Thursday. The venue is the Crystal Slipper Club in the White Queens, and the time is half past five in the evening. There will be a dinner after the commendation ceremony.

"The nature of this commendation ceremony is to give recognition to 'outstanding inspectors who have made outstanding contributions to the eradication of evil in the name of the Queen' and to summarize the important events of the quarter. Mr. Kent invites you to be there. At that time, the General Inspectorate will issue you with a Crystal Cross. ”

Hearing this, Ivas reacted immediately.

- This is the Supervision Bureau wants to beg itself to do things, and gave a deposit in advance for fear that he will regret it.

Is there anything Iwass can do lately, and he has to be able to help?

That's probably the only thing Iwass is in the newspaper today.

He independently solved such a large case, personally killed dangerous wanted criminals, and even found and cleared the junction of a noble Zhihong association on the glass island...... The premise that he became a "hero" and "celebrity" was based on the incompetence of the Inspectorate.

After sealing the Pelican Bar and following this trail to investigate deeply...... It was easy for the Inspectorate to see that this was a transnational black market that had existed on the Glass Island for a long time. Even if you are not an extraordinary person, you will often buy some contraband from here, and even exchange top-secret information here.

If they can follow this line, not to mention such trivial matters as demonic scholars and banned books on illegal paths, they may even catch major cases such as smuggling, espionage, and treason.

But on the other hand, if they really followed the Pelican Bar clue and started the investigation...... That's tantamount to slapping yourself in the face.

Such an important stronghold, which had not been discovered by the Inspectorate for so long under their noses, had become a near-open secret among the civilian population, and an important market for people to trade illegal goods. In the end, this secret was even discovered by a college student who was not yet a serious transcendent, a lame man in a wheelchair.

Then the Inspectorate is probably going to be in trouble.

Therefore, the meaning of Director Kent should be that he hopes that he can make a statement - as long as he can open his mouth at the commendation meeting, "I found out that the Pelican Bar is related to the Inspectorate".

For this reason, he even gave Ivus a rather valuable tantric book.

And that's not all. As long as Ivas took the book, he accepted the commission.

It also means that the director of Kent owes him a favor.

So, Ivas thought for a moment, and smiled with a pleasant smile like a fox.

"- Monitors?"

He feigned confusion, but he believed that both Sherlock and Oswald understood what he meant: "But I'm just a normal person." I was even a student in school. ”

Sherlock understood what Ivas meant.

"It's out of the way."

Without hesitation, he said, "You are not a formal inspector, but even students can become advisors to the Inspectorate. Just like me, I was registered in the Inspectorate. And there will be no real task, just show that you are part of the Inspectorate at a critical moment. Later, if you are interested in an event and would like to participate in the survey, you can also join as a consultant. ”

Sherlock's words were very fluid. Apparently he directly recited the original words of the Kent director.

As Sherlock's advisor, he was able to make such a promise directly to Ivus, apparently because Director Kent had considered Ivus's reaction before Sherlock left.

It was supposed to be Mr. Director, who had asked Haina in detail about Evas's personality, abilities, and what he had to do.

When he realized that Ivas was a smart man and not easy to fool, he immediately arranged more substantial benefits for Ivus.

"Mr. Kent's exact words were, 'This is a reward for your heroic deeds, and an advance appearance fee for inviting you to the commendation meeting.'

"Of course, if you really don't want to attend, it doesn't matter, you can still take the book, and I can go back to Mr. Kent for you."

Charlotte put her top hat back on and pressed the brim down.

"—So, what about your answer?"

"Yes, of course. Please tell Mr. Director-General, I will attend on time. ”

Ivas smiled gently, but never mentioned the book The Pastoral Tantra.

It was only then that he truly understood the weight of his identity.

Now he is not a black player with no backstage...... He is Ivas Moriarty.

While James was alive and Avalon was not destroyed, no one could swallow his credit. No one can treat him as a tool and call him at will. As long as they want Aihuas's help, they must exchange benefits with him, and they must not eat without vomiting.

And immediately after that, Ivas also immediately realized another thing:

- Good boy.

It turns out that when I was a player, I was secretly smuggled by these people for so many things!
