Under the starry sky.
The thin dog stood at a corner of the 'place of decision' chosen last time.
There was a purple halo flickering under his feet, and there was a faint sense of good fortune.
Luck: Defense +5%
Before him, constellations unfolded.
Falcon, Night Claw Dragon, Harpy, Owl, Wolverine, Toad, Shepherd's Staff, Hammer, Anvil, and Void Throne, a total of 10 constellations.
The stars are twinkling and lifelike.
Xigou realized something: "Is this the direction I can choose next... What kind of power can these constellations bring me?"
When his vision focused on a constellation, the constellation seemed to come alive and move quickly towards him.
As time goes by, Xigou is now standing above the constellation "Falcon".
The eagle's sharp eyes scanned the starry sky, as if it wanted to tear all prey to pieces.
There are a total of 5 planets in the constellation.
The five stars put together form the shape of an eagle.
"So I use my devotion points to choose... One devotion point can light up a planet. When all the planets are lit up, the entire constellation will be activated."
Although no one told Xigou how to operate it, Xigou seemed to know what to do already.
It's amazing.
At the same time, he could also see what kind of bonus he could get by using piety points to activate a planet above the Falcon constellation.
Pray for the first star, increase basic strength and agility
Pray for the second star to increase life and attack ability
Pray for the third star to increase more basic agility
Pray for the fourth star to increase basic strength and agility
Pray to the fifth star to obtain the exclusive skill of the Falcon constellation: Falcon Swoop
Activating the entire constellation will have a special effect on the starry sky...
"So... if I choose this constellation, I have to light up 4 more shrine ruins to complete it? This is too slow... It's been more than half a month since the server was launched, and I've only lit up 2 shrine ruins. Finding another 4... will take at least 2 months."
He shook his head and turned his attention to other constellations.
Night Claw Dragon.
There are a total of 4 stars inside, each adding different attributes.
1: Increase agility and strengthen the damage of all combat pets
2. Increase the elemental energy resistance of yourself and your pet
3: Attacks by yourself and your pet cause additional physical damage
4: Greatly enhance the physical attack of yourself and your pet
Activating the entire constellation will have a special effect on the starry sky...
"Oh... this is interesting. It only has four stars, but it can also increase the damage of your summons. It's a physical bonus. Summoners can learn it, but I'll just forget about it."
At this time, he turned around and looked at the constellation of 'Night Claw Dragon', and also faintly felt the breath of enhanced summons, which had little appeal to him.
He looked at other constellations and found a 'Hammer' constellation that was more attractive to him.
3 stars total for the interior.
1: Increase physical damage and strengthen defense
2. Increase the trauma damage and duration caused, and strengthen your own defense capabilities
Three: Enhance physical damage and trauma damage, and strengthen defense
Activating the entire constellation will have a special effect on the starry sky...
"There are fewer planets in this one, and the speed of maxing out is faster. The attributes are more in line with me and my current skill system, but..."
“This has no skills!”
"When you max out the Eagle constellation, you get a skill, but this one doesn't give you anything... a bit stingy."
"They all told me that it would have a special effect on the starry sky... What does that mean?"
"Hey! Can someone answer my question?"
Xigou shouted in the starry sky, but unfortunately no one responded. The information of these constellations entered his mind directly after he saw them, and there was no sound communicating with him.
Xigou looked at several other constellations, each of which has its own unique bonus.
There is the 'Shepherd's Staff' constellation which strengthens summoning and gives a special summoning skill, there is the 'Anvil' constellation which strengthens defense and gives a shield defense skill, and there is the 'Owl' constellation which strengthens the damage of the three elements of fire, ice and electricity... ...
The number of planets inside ranges from 3 to 5.
Each one is different and very complex.
In order to make it easier to distinguish, Xigou added a unique naming method to each of their constellations.
Falcon (Physical), Night Claw (Physical Summoning), Hammer (Physical Trauma Defense), Anvil (Shield), Throne of Falsehood (Defense, Resistance), Wolverine (Defense Counterattack)...
This division into 10 constellations made it easier for him to write the guide later.
He even went offline several times to record all the content on his computer.
After completing the recording, Xigou has already made a judgment on what he should choose.
"Although the attributes of the hammer are very compatible, but... I want to see what kind of constellation skills the falcon can bring me, so I choose you!"
"Aquila constellation!"
He placed his piety point into the first planet of the Eagle constellation, and it lit up instantly!
The Eagle constellation instantly established a special connection with him, and he could vaguely feel his soul bathed in a layer of starlight.
The next second, a suction force came, and the little dog's consciousness fell and was sucked back into his body.
"call!"
The thin dog let out a breath and opened his eyes.
Next to him, the player had just killed the only remaining Chaos Priest, and the Lord was holding four skill seals in his hand and exclaimed:
"It's actually... a Barbarian class skill???"
I looked at the time and half an hour had passed.
“The scene designed by the planner is really shocking! It really feels like the soul is lifted up into the sky and facing the sea of stars. The content is extremely rich. The constellations contain so much information. It seems that when I make BD in the future, I have to take the constellation bonus into consideration.”
He moved around and felt that his strength and agility had been greatly enhanced.
I took out my smart watch and compared it with the previous properties.
"Strength and agility both increased by 3 points... Not bad. Compared to an average person's 10-point base value, it increases physical strength and reaction ability by 30%. Not bad."
Strength increases muscle and cell activity, and agility increases nerve reaction and speed, both of which are essential attributes for melee combat.
“But... one constellation only adds 6 basic attributes, which is not particularly powerful. It is not as good as this new special effect. Bad review! I suggest that the planner change it to one piety point to light up an entire constellation. I will directly use the skill!”
The fox demon heard the dog mumbling to himself, and came over to ask, "How is it? Is there any change in the second constellation selection?"
Xigou nodded: "There are changes, a lot of them, I have recorded them all, I will talk to you slowly when I get back. You have to think carefully before making a choice, this is related to the next several shrine ruins."
The fox nodded: "Okay, I understand. It just so happens that we don't have any chaos energy on hand. Let's have a good chat when we go back to decompose the corpse. Take a look at the lord's new four skills, all of which are for you barbarians."
Xigou was immediately overjoyed: "Holy crap! Barbarians really have skills? I thought the Barbarians' skill system would not be able to increase in the future. This is great, double happiness!"
Lin Tang shouted from outside: "Lord, can you share your new skills with everyone?"
Cheng Shaofeng: "I'll put it on the skill wall when I get back, you can check it out yourself. Now... it's time to clean up the battlefield."
The red maple forest was littered with corpses.
About 1,500 mutants were killed or injured, and there were at least four times more summoned creatures.
However, the summoned creatures of the mutants do not leave bones or corpses after death like the skeletons of the undead. Instead, they shrink into a ball of ashes and then dissipate, just like the mysterious crows.
The polar bears concluded that this was because the creatures they summoned were not physical entities, but a combination of energy.
The task of cleaning up the battlefield was not completed by the players, but was undertaken by the newly established Labor Dispatch Department. Minister Zhao Yan brought the people of Zhao Village and wanderers to clean up the battlefield and take back all the corpses.
Since we are already paid, we should make good use of it.
Cheng Shaofeng decided to take them in, not out of idleness... He had long realized that if the players wanted to play a bigger role, to help him explore the world, find resources, and improve their own strength, there would have to be someone to assist the players.
Just like the NPC characters in all games, they provide good service to the players.
"And if you do this... it starts to look more and more like a game."
Cheng Shaofeng boasted that he had done a good job in disguising the other world as a game, and no one had been able to tell the difference so far.
"Maintain this situation, and when the players send me to the Lord of the World, I will tell them the truth."
At the same time, in Cheng Shaofeng's heart... there is still a little hope, hoping to return to the human society on Earth, that is his home.
In order to fulfill this wish, he needs to have very high strength.
It can't be weaker than Dreig or Hades, right
As the battlefield was cleaned up, Cheng Shaofeng and the other players returned to the Scourge Base.
At this moment, the world channel has been flooded with players!
Riben Guizi: "Fuck! I just realized that I leveled up 2 levels after fighting a battle! What the hell! Is this the speed at which I can level up?"
Hiroshima Atom: "This is outrageous. With so many people sharing the experience, I can still level up twice. What a loss!"
Xigou: "Huh? How come I'm level 16? Wow, 6 extra skill points, just right for learning new skills for the Barbarian class. Oh, by the way... I remember someone said that we Barbarian players have no subsequent skills and are abandoned?"
Drum washing machine: “?”
"It's not fair! Someone is complaining to the planner! This should obviously be a new summoner class, why is it assigned to the Barbarian! Will all the skills of mutant humanoid monsters be assigned to the Barbarian in the future? Huh!? What are you thinking, planner
!”
You Yazhenser: "When I think of the Barbarian's many skills, our mysterious player feels like ants are crawling all over his body!"
Once made a promise with the gods: "Uh... Excuse me, new players in my group should not blindly choose the Barbarian. It may seem like an accidental event, but it is actually planned behind the scenes. They will definitely not let other professions have no new skills. Just choose according to your own wishes."
You guys force me: "Wuhu~@drum washing machine, can you give me a guide? Which profession should we choose to open up the wasteland now? How to use these 12 skill points? I don't understand it very well since it's my first time playing..."
Guhuoji: "Yes, yes, how do you use it? @Drum washing machine"
Washing machine: "Get lost! Stop pretending, you idiots. Each of you has at least 10 cloud BD solutions. How can this stump you?"
Cao Cao holds the pen: "Damn! I was just about to analyze it for them... You're deceiving my feelings!"
Cao Cao holds the pen: "Wait! That's not right. Didn't you just enter the game? Where did the skill points come from?"
Once made a pledge with the gods: "Oh, when we were fighting in a group just now, I asked everyone to go with me, and I also threw a few fireballs, ice spikes, etc., and gained a little experience..."
Lin Tang happily returned to the base, but when he saw a group of new level 5 players and then the world chat, he immediately put on the mask of pain.
"Fuck, you guys are so..."
The legendary bored person: "You guys deserve to die!"
Wei Kunchen: "I worked so hard and struggled so hard to reach level 5. How come you guys have reached level 5 just after the launch? You are such a jerk, planner!"
The legendary bored person: "When I think about how happy you guys are coming up here, I feel like there are ants crawling on my body!"
Wei Kunchen: "No wonder I lost so much experience. I could have reached level 17. I'm not that smart!"
The two of them sang in unison and stole all of Lin Tang's lines.
Lintang: (°ー°〃)
"Who! Who is imitating me?"
Two new players walked out from the crowd and greeted Lin Tang with a playful smile: "Boss! We are here to support you in the game!"
As soon as Lin Tang saw the two IDs, he immediately understood that these were the two administrators in his Diablo 3 mod group!
"Fuck! Bored, Lao Wei, you two are here too! That's awesome! It's just around the corner for our mod group to unify "End Times Online"!"
Lin Tang was particularly happy to see an acquaintance.
He directly took out two rifles and two hundred rounds of ammunition from his warehouse and gave them to the two men: "Use this! Inlay your inlays on it, and you can shoot guns and use skills. It's so cool!"
The legendary bored person: "Is this the group leader? You can mess with me if you want!"
Wei Kunchen: "The group leader really... I'm crying!"
Lin Tang laughed loudly: "In this game, I'll protect you!"
While Lin Tang was reminiscing about the past, the other newcomers also chatted with the beta test players they were familiar with or met on the official website.
In this battle, the Scourge Base reaped a rich harvest!
Even though it cost nearly 100 resurrection coins, compared to the profits... it's insignificant!
The old players, who were the main combat force, gained a lot of experience, and players above level 10 all rose by 2~3 levels.
Players who entered the beta test of version 2.0 below level 10... almost all of them have reached level 10!
They all underwent the first-order evolution, gained additional attribute points and skill points, and became eligible to study the second specialization.
The players who had just entered the game happened to be around the base. Under the command of "Once Made a Pledge with the Gods", they safely gained experience points, all of them were level 5!
The overall level has been greatly improved!
Cheng Dafu also made it to level 10.
This wave is another small enhancement. Cheng Shaofeng is more confident about the game in Feisha City four days later.
In addition to these, the greater gain is that the corpses of so many mutants will decompose into a large number of crystals and more good equipment.
This type of humanoid mutant drops the most equipment.
"I participated in the command of this battle. I killed almost all the Chaos Priests. As for the distribution of the spoils... hehe~ I have the final say!"
"It's just right to equip Cheng Dafu with a set of equipment to enhance summoning."
Since the summoned creatures had no corpses, only 1,500 corpses of these mutants could be decomposed in the end. Cheng Shaofeng collected 500 corpses of ordinary mutants and 5 corpses of second-level chaos priests, and gave the rest to the players.
"Wu Jie, finish breaking these down and store all the spoils in our warehouse, sorting them by category."
Wu Jie: “OK!”
The base's warehouse is replenished through team battles.
The players had no objection. After all, the Overlord had eliminated all the powerful Chaos Priests for them and they had gained all the experience, so it was normal that they were not given the spoils.
At this point, all of the base's loot generators were running at full capacity, with players lining up to disassemble them.
Cheng Shaofeng was not in a hurry and let the players operate first.
Pile the corpses belonging to the base aside so that the undead in the energy supply department can have some fun.
The surging breath of death that was as tangible as a substance made the DNA of all the necromancers move. Without Atun's urging, they absorbed it all with all their might, and their body energy continued to increase.
If human extraordinary beings need to constantly absorb crystal energy to strengthen themselves, these undead are equivalent to soaking in a crystal energy pool every day, and their strength increases too quickly!
"With 100 new players, they will get more experience points for completing tasks every day. If we want to maintain the original task experience ratio... we have to find more undead to charge."
Thinking of this, Cheng Shaofeng's mouth corners slightly raised into a devilish arc.
The main body walked up to the 91 rebellious wanderers who were controlled by Atton and his skeletons.
The pressure of level 29 strength was released, and a terrifying energy wave surged out from Cheng Shaofeng, startling Lan Fu who was waiting nearby.
"What... Such a terrifying power! What is the strength of the Lord! Level 2... No! Not just an ordinary level 2, but the peak of level 2!"
He didn't expect that the lord who looked very friendly and usually loved to sleep actually had such terrifying strength. This completely stunned him. He had originally planned to plead for these wanderers, but at this moment he had no idea at all.
May you all the best.
It's such a powerful base, but you don't want the opportunity that's right in front of you, and you even dare to steal food... How short-sighted!
It's just like... Jack Ma asked you to follow him, but you ended up wanting to rob Jack Ma's store and leave.
Like a stupid pig.
The 91 homeless people who were forced to kneel below saw that the situation was already decided and quickly begged for mercy.
"My Lord, we were bewitched and frightened by the mutants! Please forgive us this time!"
"I didn't do anything, and I didn't shoot. Even if I'm guilty, I'm willing to atone for my sins and work for you for free. As long as you give me food, I can work until I die!"
"Ah?! I was forced to come here, I don't know anything. Ignorance is not a crime, Lord!"
"I wasn't with them in the first place. I was just a crazy person. Where was I? Who was I? What was I going to do? Yes! I got it! Hahaha! I got it!
”
Facing all kinds of life, Cheng Shaofeng's heart has not changed at all. What he hates most are betrayers!
"If you don't believe that the Scourge Base can protect you, you can just pack up your things and leave on your own. I won't blame you!"
"But! You should never rob my store, and you shouldn't point a gun at my brother's head!"
"He took me to eat when I was in the most difficult time, teamed up with me to scavenge, and saved my life many times! I said... I will never let a gun point at my brother's head in my life!"
"You all deserve to die!"
Wu Jie looked at Cheng Shaofeng with red eyes, clenched his fists, and said in a voice that only he could hear: "I didn't choose the wrong person..."
Cheng Shaofeng ordered: "Push them all under the energy launch column and kill them all! Hang their bodies in the center of the base for everyone who wants to come to my base to see!"
Suddenly, the rebellious wanderers panicked.
A thin, fair-skinned man ran over and hugged Cheng Shaofeng's thigh.
"Godfather! Dad! From now on I will serve you as my own father, I am very good at it! Everyone can testify! Please forgive me this time, I will never dare to do it again, never again!"
Cheng Shaofeng kicked him away and said, "What the hell is this slut? If he touches me again, Atun, you and your skeleton will die together."
Atun was surprised: "I know!"
He quickly asked the skeleton to put the knife on the man's neck, fearing that he would kill himself. His dream of becoming the King of the Dead, second only to the emperor, had just begun, and he couldn't let this thing ruin it.
At this time, facing such a scene, a middle-aged man holding a "pillow" walked out from among the wanderers, knelt in front of Cheng Shaofeng and began to kowtow hard.
"I still have a child! I just don't want him to die here, I'm a father... Lord, please, look at him, he's so young, his nose is frozen purple, it's so cold, I can't let him freeze to death! I just want a warm piece of clothing to take him out to avoid the cold, I don't want to steal food, please spare my child, the child is innocent... My child is innocent... Please, please, please!"
Bang bang bang~
The cold ground was covered with blood from the knocks, but the middle-aged man was still kowtowing.
A little head popped out from the "pillow" on the ground, looking around with a puzzled look on his face. When he saw his father bleeding from the knocks, his little mouth pursed and he started to cry loudly.
“Ah wow wow wow wow~”
Atun looked at Cheng Shaofeng, who frowned.
He squatted down and picked up the child. There was a pillowcase wrapped in a quilt made of some old clothes of unknown material. That was all the child's clothes in the winter with a temperature of minus 20 degrees Celsius.
It was slightly opened, and wisps of white mist came out.
The baby shuddered and then miraculously stopped crying.
The child has a big head but a thin body and looks malnourished.
A faint fire energy emanated from Cheng Shaofeng's fingertips, warming the surrounding air, and a comfortable expression appeared on the child's face.
Then he curiously stretched out his little hand and wanted to touch Cheng Shaofeng's nose. Cheng Shaofeng raised his head slightly and sighed.
"How old is he?"
The middle-aged man endured the severe pain in his head and answered dizzily: "8 months, a girl, her mother was killed by mutants last month..."
Cheng Shaofeng nodded and held the child in his arms.
"I'll raise the child, you can die without worry."
"Zero, execute!"
The middle-aged man shed two lines of tears. His expression was extremely rich, as he faced the fear of death and the relief that his child had a future home.
He slammed his head again.
"thank you... ... "
"Nannan, live well."
As the energy swept through, all the wanderers howled in pain.
