At the entrance of the dungeon, I saw that more than twenty players who had gone on an expedition had returned, and they also brought back eight dead underground spiders. The underground spiders were tied with ropes and dragged back together.
Sherlock didn't expect that in just a few hours, these players had already brought back eight underground spiders.
In addition to the underground spiders, there are also the corpses of four players. They obviously died when they went out to open up wasteland. Some of the remaining players are more or less injured. It seems that they have gone through a hard battle.
When the players saw the land reclamation team coming back from their third land reclamation with loot, they gathered around and asked about various situations.
Umekawa Kuzi was talking excitedly over there about the battles they went out to open up wasteland. Their first two battles were pretty good, without any casualties, but in the third time, the underground spiders that were attracted in one breath Too many, but after paying the price of four people being killed and many injured, they still repelled the underground spiders. After they suffered a setback in the third battle, they did not dare to continue in the spider lair. They stayed at the door for a long time. After the underground spiders receded, they quickly returned with the loot and the corpses of their companions. Those corpses were naturally intended to be resurrected. Of course, they could also choose to re-create the character, but if they re-create the character , it is time to start accumulating reputation points again. They have been working hard for so many days, and they must not be willing to give up the reputation level and start over.
While the players were celebrating, Sherlock also went over to treat the injured and repair the bodies of the dead, and then saw the players starting to decompose the corpses of the underground spiders. The area they focused on taking care of was the spider's belly, not because they were in a hurry to separate the spider meat, but because last time they saw Sherlock take out a strange metal ball from his belly, and then took the metal ball with him Winterfell has been appraised, but for these players, it is more like fighting monsters to obtain special props, and then opening up a hidden plot.
Maybe other spiders have similar props in their bodies
Moreover, even if the hidden items cannot be dug out, everything else on this spider can be exchanged for reputation and rewards! Sherlock has set a price for these things in his heart, such as spider meat. Ten kilograms of spider meat can be exchanged for ten reputation points and ten copper coins. Spider legs are also raw materials for making food and forging weapons. A spider leg costs ten reputation points. Ten copper coins. As for spider silk, it is an important raw material that can be used to make various props. It can also strengthen weapons. A ball of spider silk can be exchanged for 100 reputation points and 100 copper coins. However, the spider silk The output is relatively small, and it also depends on luck.
After collecting these things from these players, Sherlock can produce food, and use spider legs and spider silk to ask blacksmith Simba to make higher-level weapons and equipment, and then transfer Come out and sell to these players to recover the metal currency. In order to obtain better equipment, they can only take on more coolie tasks, or fight more underground spiders to earn money and reputation, and achieve a virtuous cycle in the dungeon. !
The players quickly dissected the eight underground spiders, placing the spider legs on the side one by one. The spider meat was also cut off piece by piece and piled together. As for the spider silk, the output There are fewer.
Sherlock could smell the unpleasant smell coming from these spiders even from a distance, but these players didn't have any suggestions and still enthusiastically got into the spiders' bellies to see if they could find anything. nice one.
They have been busy for a long time, but they haven't been able to take out anything good from the spider's belly. At most, they are the remains of some unknown creatures. After all, it is impossible to be so lucky every time to find valuable things from these underground creatures. Baby.
Sherlock watched the players counting the trophies in an orderly manner with his hands behind his back. He originally thought that these players would bring the trophies to his side in exchange for rewards. However, after the players finished counting the trophies, they were not in a hurry. When I came over, the auction started, but this kind of auction was only for the internal team.
"Spider legs, the starting price is twenty copper coins each!"
The person who presided over the auction was Kuzi Umekawa. After he finished shouting, the players who participated in the third land reclamation began to bid, and soon they quadrupled. Arthur bought five of them for forty copper coins. And some other rich players, such as Burning Chest Hair, Sakura Palace Cat Demon, and Sylvanas, also bought these spider legs at high prices.
As for the spider meat, some people also bought it, but the price was not high. The last auction was spider silk. Because the weight of spider silk was not a ball, the starting price was eighty copper coins, and it was sold to the price of three hundred copper coins not long after. , bought by Arthur.
Other players witnessed the first loot auction in the dungeon world, and many players sighed:
"Oh my gosh, this is really terrible. The current price of one copper coin is less than ten to twenty yuan. It's only so much money. It's really hard to live. I want it too. Hurry up and work hard and join the gold group as soon as possible!" (Gold Group, an online game terminology, all loot is auctioned, and the team is evenly distributed)
"The Golden Group is not easy to fight either. Can you fight an underground spider for two hours without getting hurt? I can't do it anyway."
"So we need to practice more!"
"Hurry up and move bricks. You can make more money. My children's elementary school tuition fees have been earned by moving bricks in the past few days."
"Don't mention it. I plan to wait until this game is released for public beta. I will resign and stay at home depending on the situation. I can make money by playing games professionally. After playing this game for a few hours, I can earn copper coins and earn a lot of money to go to work!"
"It's better to forget it as soon as possible. It's the first beta now. The player base is small, so copper coins are expensive. You wait until the public beta later, when tens of millions of people come to play, and the studio will definitely explode by then. Do you still expect copper coins to be so expensive? ? The price must be getting cheaper and cheaper, so why not earn a few more while there is no open beta now?"
"Yes, that's the same truth..."
The players were talking about it, but Sherlock didn't understand. What's going on? What are these players doing? Trading with each other in...
Although these players had been seen exchanging currency with each other before, Sherlock was not at ease at that time. After all, in Sherlock's view, those players were more like helping a few people faster by helping each other. He raised enough funds to buy weapons and equipment to open up spider lairs, and did not regard the players' buying and selling of currencies as transactions at all. But now, when Sherlock saw these players, they not only started trading, but even auctioned! After the auction was over, the more than twenty people who participated in the land reclamation began to equally distribute the copper coins obtained from the auction.
Those players who bought spider meat brought the spider meat to Sherlock in exchange for copper coins and reputation rewards. Sherlock could understand their thoughts. They wanted to exchange the metal currency for more reputation, but those who bought the spider legs at a high price There are also a few people in the spider silk, Sherlock is a little confused. Do they know the function of these things
You know, Sherlock plans to use these materials to strengthen the equipment, and then sell it to these players at a high price, so as to recover the metal currency, keep them in a state of insufficient currency, and encourage them to work hard.
After seeing the players begin to trade these materials with each other, Sherlock thought for a while and decided to first ask "Blue", the core of the dungeon who knew about the different world.
"Bru, do you know why these players in the other world skip the recycling process I set and trade these items themselves?"
"This is probably for stocking up. After all, Simba seems to have revealed before that spider legs and spider silk can be used to make equipment. These players have a very fanatical pursuit of equipment."
Dungeon "Blue" said so.
Sherlock frowned:
"So, these players are planning to skip me and then hoard materials to make and strengthen equipment directly?"
"That should be the case. In fact, it's quite good. Let them exchange materials with each other. Anyway, if they want to strengthen their equipment or make equipment, they have to go to Simba. As long as they set it on Simba's side, In terms of price, metal currency can still be recovered. In fact, in the past few days, I have been thinking about a good way to speed up the consumption of their metal currency." "Bru", the core of the dungeon, said: "Set weapons and equipment How about a setting that enhances the level of layers?”
"How many layers of strengthening?" Sherlock was not very familiar with the gameplay of the different world. "Bru" explained:
"After strengthening the weapons and equipment, add '+1' '+2' and other similar data behind the panel. At the same time, the corresponding attack power and defense value will be increased each time. As long as we set up the equipment to be strengthened each time The spider legs and spider silk that are consumed, and then when Simba strengthens these equipment, after a certain number of layers, he can occasionally deliberately smash the weapons and equipment. It is said that the strengthening of the equipment failed, and the weapons and armors are damaged and strengthened. The higher the level, the higher the probability that the weapons and equipment will be damaged. After the weapons and equipment are damaged, we need to purchase new equipment and start new enhancements. In this way, the currency we can recover is much faster than simply selling weapons. We You can also use this to add a reward, which is called equipment enhancement coupons. Using equipment enhancement coupons to strengthen equipment can greatly increase the success rate! Moreover, we can also recycle those broken weapons and armor, reforge them into weapons and armor, and then return Go sell it to players!”
After Blue finished speaking, Sherlock understood that Blue's method was really wonderful. This greatly increased the consumption of players' metal currency. In addition, by recycling weapons and armor, there would be no waste. Diamond raw material.
Soon, Sherlock accepted Blue's suggestion, and then called the blacksmith Simba to come to the core hall of the dungeon to discuss the matter.
After Simba arrived, Sherlock followed Simba and told him about the equipment enhancement, and asked Simba to hang a new sign at the door of the blacksmith shop - [Equipment Enhancement], and mark the equipment enhancement each time. The price, the amount of spider silk and spider legs required for each level of enhancement must also be increased layer by layer, and with each increase in level, the probability of strengthening failure will increase. This increase, of course, depends on Simba's own mood. It also depends on whether the players are happy or not.
Although the blacksmith Simba was very strange and didn't understand why the lord made it so troublesome to strengthen the equipment, the lord was the boss, so the blacksmith Simba followed suit. Soon, Simba's [Equipment Enhancement] sign It hangs out. At present, relying on spider silk and spider legs, the maximum enhancement can only be enhanced five times, so the set level for enhancement failure is on the third level. In other words, after players have enhanced three times, they will not be able to strengthen again. If you want to strengthen the equipment, there is a chance that the equipment armor will be damaged.
When the [Equipment Enhancement] sign was put up, a player nearby noticed it immediately. Like a mad dog, he rushed to the players who were still dividing their money and shouted:
"Fuck! The dog has planned enhanced equipment!"
