Astral Apostle

Chapter 10: 010 Placement with determination

Views:

With a shock, he returned to the starry space.

"I am back?"

Zhou Jing looked down and confirmed that he was not using the carrier "Will Wood" at this time, but his original appearance.

Phew, I'm finally back, the feeling of being in a coma from poisoning is really uncomfortable... Zhou Jing grinned.

When using the astral apostle, the consciousness will not be separated from the body's senses, it is 100% real, and the pain is really painful.

The huge fluorescent panel is suspended in front of the eyes, and the information received before is displayed on it synchronously.

"The actual stay was six days... So after I was poisoned, I was almost in a coma for two days. Griff took me, a wounded man, for so long in the forest..."

Zhou Jing pondered.

There are dangers in the forest, the threat of the Earth Skeletons has not disappeared, and they are not the true companions of the hunters, they can abandon their burden... But now it seems that their so-called kindness is not just talk.

A brief adventure, a taste of a different life, and it's so profound in retrospect.

Zhou Jing suppressed his emotions and looked at the next column of information.

The panel shows that a total of 163 astral points have been collected in this experience, and all of his astral points have accumulated to 1468.

Many actions of the astral apostles, such as fighting, practicing, surviving and even eating, etc., can collect free astral energy and turn them into astral points.

However, unlike the immediate benefits of triggering achievements, the astral points collected by these daily actions will only be counted and settled when the Astral Apostle’s release ends and consciousness returns, and the collection results will be brought back at one time.

Zhou Jing opened the statistical details of this item, which listed which behaviors in this experience were collected to the astral point, which looked very trivial.

As big as killing alien beasts, as small as what you eat every day, all have astral points in the account, and even simple sleep has very little profit.

"So as long as the astral apostle is alive and breathing, you can continue to collect astral points..."

Zhou Jing scratched his head.

The bulk of the income this time is mainly from killing the White Spider Monster, and the rest is the sum of all kinds of odds and ends.

At the bottom of the collection details, two pieces of information caught his attention:

[Sync rate bonus: 0%]

[Famousness bonus: 0%]

The synchronization rate and popularity can increase the daily total income of the regression settlement, which is equivalent to improving the efficiency of the apostles collecting astral points.

The synchronization rate of the body of "Will Wood" had increased to 32% before the return, but there was no bonus. He estimated that the synchronization rate must reach a certain standard in order to get the bonus.

And the popularity seems to be related to the influence of the astral apostles, what deeds have been left, how many people have received attention, etc. Based on Zhou Jing's not too rich experience analysis... This popularity may be equivalent to personal reputation. s things.

Turning off the statistical details, Zhou Jing looked at the next item, which read "The experience log has been recorded, and the relevant exploration results have been entered into the illustrated book."

"What does it mean… "

When his mind moved, the panel suddenly flashed, and an extension interface suddenly popped up on the left and right sides.

Interface on the left:

["Astral Apostle Register"]

[No. 001: Will Wood (survival) - you can view detailed attributes and experience logs]

[Number 002: None]

Right interface:

["Illustrated Book of Records"]

[1. Talent class]

[2. Skills]

[3. Super energy system class]

[4. Accessibility class]

[5. Trait personality class]

Zhou Jing became a little interested, studied it, and roughly understood what these were.

The Register of Astral Apostles records all the Astral Apostles that have been created, whether dead or alive.

By clicking on a name in the roster, you can query the file of the astral apostle, and you can also query the experience log of the astral apostle.

The form of the experience log is a video, which contains all the knowledge of this astral apostle as a memorandum.

Zhou Jing tried to watch a few paragraphs, all of which were images from the first-person perspective of the carrier. They were all things that he personally experienced not long ago. If you forget the details, you can directly query the relevant images without confusing your understanding.

The "Recording Book" classified and recorded all the abilities of the astral apostle templates that he had used, which could be queried intuitively. Currently, there is only the ability of "Will Wood".

In addition to the function of recording, the illustrated book is also equivalent to a material library when pinching people - when creating a new astral apostle, you can specify the ability to inherit other astral apostles from the illustrated book, and generate it in the template of the new carrier. Just according to the selected ability, the amount of Astral Points will be consumed.

"So the more Astral Apostles you have used, the richer the roster and illustrations... But it seems that only the previous Astral Apostle has cleared or died to create a new Astral Apostle."

Zhou Jing secretly wrote it down, turned off these two interfaces, and continued to read.

The cooling time for the next release is 12 hours... This is understandable, the main body must spend at least 12 hours before the consciousness can be re-introduced into the astral apostles as before.

It doesn't seem to be forced. When the time comes, you can shuttle if you want to shuttle, or you can choose freely if you don't want to shuttle.

Zhou Jing looked at the information in the last column:

[Please formulate an action plan for the placement of the astral apostles... ]

The reason why the panel stays in this settlement interface is because the follow-up operation has not been performed yet.

As soon as he chose to continue, the settlement interface immediately disappeared, replaced by a new page:

[Place object: Will Wood]

[The highest synchronization rate record: 32% (second stage)]

[The upper limit of placement income: astral point 0/2000, information state particle 0/20]

[Please set the main action target, secondary action center of gravity, event processing mode, combat mode, interaction mode... ]

[Hint: During placement, the sync rate does not grow. The higher the synchronization rate, the better the astral apostles can deal with complex events and act flexibly according to the placement plan]

[Hint: When the astral apostle executes the placement action plan, the behavior mode still has the template trait personality]

Zhou Jing read it again, and was immediately stunned.

"Idle mode... It turned out to be like this after the return. When I don't control the astral apostle, he will act according to the plan I set, just like those robots with standard artificial intelligence in the main world? Making a placement plan is quite It is used to establish the behavior program and logic chain of the robot…”

He originally guessed that if he returned, the astral apostles would disappear together, or another plane time would be suspended or something.

Now it seems that the time of another world is still flowing continuously, and the astral apostles stay in this world, act according to the placement plan set by themselves, and automatically collect astral energy.

However, unlike personal control, the Astral Apostle has a limit on collecting astral points in the placement mode, depending on the synchronization rate.

Every 25% of the synchronization rate is a dividing line, which is divided into four stages. Every time you increase a stage, the upper limit of placement income will increase.

The base placement yield cap depends on template rarity. When the synchronization rate is increased by one stage, the upper limit of the placement income will at least double, so the upper limit of the placement income of the synchronization rate in the fourth stage is at least eight times that of the first stage.

When the cumulative total income of an apostle in the placement mode reaches the upper limit, it will no longer be able to obtain placement benefits, and it is necessary to personally descend to increase the synchronization rate to expand the upper limit of revenue.

Only the astral apostles who have cleared the level and the synchronization rate reaches the fourth stage will not have a revenue cap.

Zhou Jing nodded secretly: "So improving the synchronization rate is a high-priority goal. Compared with personal control, the time spent by the astral apostles in the placement mode should be longer."

He carefully looked at the specific details of the placement plan.

The placement scheme has many configurable items, covering many aspects.

He summed it up and simply divided it into two categories, one is the action target and the other is the action mode.

The former is to determine the purpose of the Astral Apostle's placement of actions, whether to explore new areas or stay in place, whether to focus on practice or to do things everywhere.

If it is more detailed, it can also be specific to a certain detail, such as choosing to focus on cultivation, setting the level of which skill to improve first, and so on.

The latter is a mode of dealing with various events, such as radical, conservative, balanced, etc., but will be affected by the characteristics of this astral apostle, personality, style, position, and so on.

"Try it first and see what the specific results of the placement mode look like..."

Zhou Jing thought for a while, and quickly set up the placement plan this time, all of which were conservative and balanced.

Take a look at it first.

[The placement plan has been saved and will take effect immediately]

[Do you want to open the map overview mode, additionally specify the activity area during placement, and plan the activity track? ]

[Hint: It is not necessary to specify, the astral apostles will decide the activity area according to the placement plan according to the situation]

The interface of the map overview mode popped up. This time, it was no longer completely black, but a small area was added. It was the area that Zhou Jing walked through in the black-shirted forest. You can zoom in and out.

In addition, this time, the unknown area has also become optional, as the exploration target in the Astral Apostle placement mode.

"Does not specify a region."

Zhou Jing refused.

There is nothing special to explore at the moment, and we still wait for Griff and the others to bring the astral apostle "Will Wood" to Frostwood Village and unlock that area.

After these operations are completed, the panel flashes, the interface for placing the plan disappears, and new information appears:

[End of setup]

[shuttle reserve space is closed]

[Countdown to next time: 12 hours]

Suddenly, Zhou Jing's vision darkened.

In the next second, the line of sight resumed, and the fluorescent panel and the starry space were no longer in front of him, but returned to his room.

The neon lights were still shining outside the window, illuminating the steel forest-like high-rise buildings and the flying vehicles passing through them.

Zhou Jing blinked.

Is this back

I thought it would suck me into the crevice like a shuttle in the astral world...

"By the way, what time is it?"

Thinking of this, Zhou Jing sat up from the bed and turned on the electronic clock on his mobile phone.

Five in the morning.

He estimated the time he slept, and more than six hours had passed.

In the preparatory stage of the shuttle, it shows that the shuttle time can be set by yourself. The default is six hours of the main body. The time flow difference between the two worlds is converted into the stay time of one shuttle in the star world.

"Eternal God Emperor"

Zhou Jing was still full of energy at this time, and did not feel tired.

"I travel through the astral world by throwing consciousness. During this period, is my body in a deep sleep? If someone wakes me up during this process, will I continue to travel, or will I return immediately? It's like falling asleep with a blanket Wake up?"

Zhou Jing was a little curious.

He spent six days in the astral world and has a deep memory, but during these days, he remembered the main world from time to time, and there was no confusion.

I don't know if it was an illusion or not, Zhou Jing found that his memory had improved a lot, but with a thought, he recalled his own experience on the day before the shuttle.

Well, I just came home after the interview, and was informed by my family that I needed to pay for the forced immigration quota for my family, and my life plan was disrupted...

Zhou Jing let out a sigh of relief, but he was not as disappointed and resentful as when he first heard the news.

After a few days of calmness in the astral shuttle, and then walking around between life and death, he suddenly thought of a lot of things.

Although he didn't get much benefit from changing his body, he found that his mentality changed.

There has never been a moment, like taking off a layer of invisible burden, light to the bones, as if boundless freedom.

Zhou Jing's eyes changed, and he finally made up his mind and let out a long breath.

"Looks like a decision has to be made."

Outside the black-shirted forest, there is a meandering river as clear as sapphire, and on the other side of the river is a verdant field.

On the field, there is a human village called Frostwood Village, which stands by the river, and a small stone bridge is built on the river to connect the forest.

The sky was bright and dawn was faint. In the peaceful village, the farmers yawned and walked out of the house, bringing their farming tools and preparing to go to work in the fields.

At this moment, three embarrassed figures with people on their backs ran out of the forest on the other side, stepped on the stone bridge, and stumbled into the village, shouting anxiously as they ran, quickly attracting the attention of many villagers.

"They are dying, save people!"

"Call the witch doctor here!"

For a time, the whole village was lively.
