Jiang Qiao kept trying to capture that ethereal voice. This voice kept repeating the words "save me". The repeating voice changed from the female voice at the beginning to the male voice at the back, children, children,
All the old people have it.
It feels like millions of people are repeating these three words in their minds.
Jiang Qiao concentrated his attention and tried to talk to this voice, but the next thing that came to his mind was... 'I really want to eat roasted whole lamb. The roasted whole lamb from that restaurant must be delicious if it is brushed with sauce.'
Stop it! You useless goddess, what else is there in your head besides roasting a whole lamb?
Jiang Qiao really wanted to flick Hailan's forehead with his finger, but he couldn't do it now. The connection would be broken if he flicked it. Then Hailan used her strength to prove that she was thinking about something other than roasting the whole lamb.
There are also potato chips, fried chicken, Coke and...three coordinates.
coordinate?
Hailan could still do some serious work. Jiang Qiao quickly grabbed the three coordinates Hailan found and wrote them down. When Jiang Qiao opened his eyes again, the shouting voice gradually disappeared from Jiang Qiao's mind.
disappear.
"Which side should we help?" Hailan opened his eyes, and the first thing he said was not roasted whole lamb.
Jiang Qiao opened the portal and took Hai Lan back to the astrology tower on the Holy Spirit's body plane, and then started this conversation.
"We'll help both sides. As I said, I want everything on this island."
Jiang Qiao opened his system book, and the projection of Brand Island appeared in front of Jiang Qiao's eyes.
What Hai Lan refers to as "helping that side" is actually making a choice between the Earth Mother Goddess and Brand Island.
The Mother Goddess of Earth’s initial commission was for Jiang Qiao to purify the island of crystallized plague. This is also the main mission announced by Jiang Qiao to players at this stage.
But just after Hailan swallowed the core crystal of the Sky Frost Dragon, he heard a cry for help...from the Brand Island.
This cry for help did not come from any creature on Brand Island, but from the entire island!
This island is also asking for help from Jiang Qiao, and it has also issued a main mission to Jiang Qiao, which is the three coordinates.
The three coordinates Hailan marked for Jiang Qiao were located in the Lingmai Forest, the crystallization land in the center of Brand Island, and an area named Black Soil Swamp by Jiang Qiao.
The coordinates of these three areas happen to be connected on a line... As for the meaning of these three coordinates, it is the place where Brand Island's consciousness can barely maintain its sanity.
That's right... maintain your sanity, Brand Island has its own thinking, but its thinking has entered a state of rampage, which manifests itself in the fact that the crystal-infected monsters on the island will attack all living creatures indiscriminately.
The three areas of the Spirit Vein Forest, the crystallization place in the center of Brand Island, and the black soil swamp are the areas where the thinking of Brand Island is still preserved.
This is also why the core crystallization of the Spiritual Vein Forest is not in the body of the monster, but is controlled by the law thieves, and the area where the city of the law thieves is established is in the core crystallization place of Brand Island.
If Brand Island is regarded as a god, it should be a god like an ooze monster. It has a strong learning ability and absorbs the power of this world uncontrollably.
Jiang Qiao is not sure that this is the source of the crystal disease, but the law-stealers and all those infected with the crystal disease can be regarded as believers of Brand Island.
But Brand Island's consciousness itself is harmless. To be more precise, there is no idea of 'wanting to hurt the other party' in his thinking. It is like a newborn baby who is too powerful to control himself.
of rampage.
What makes it go berserk is not only its strength, but also its ability to learn, which can be seen from the abilities possessed by the law thieves.
The magic thieves are endlessly imitating the power of others, and this imitation sometimes hurts the magic thieves themselves. Brand Island is also in this kind of... pain now.
"So how should we save this...island?" Hailan listened to Jiang Qiao's explanation for so long but still didn't understand what Jiang Qiao was talking about.
"Just let it be completely transformed into your follower." Jiang Qiao flipped through the pages of the System Book, and a line of data appeared in the three areas of Brand Island's Spiritual Vein Forest, Crystal Land, and Black Soil Swamp.
.
The assimilation value is 15.1%, the assimilation value is 41.1%, and the assimilation value is 0%.
These three areas refer to the assimilation values of the Spirit Vein Forest, the Crystal Land and the Black Soil Swamp respectively.
"Should I ask now what this assimilation value attribute means?" Hailan asked.
"This attribute means... the control progress of Brand Island." Jiang Qiao said after thinking for a while.
"You can imagine Brand Island as a baby. This baby now has three stepfathers. The first stepfather is me, the God-Eating God, and the players. The second stepfather is the magic thieves. The third stepfather is me.
A stepfather...has not yet appeared. These three stepfathers all want the little baby on Brand Island to become like themselves, so that they can control the tens of millions of assets left to him by the baby on Brand Island.
"
"What about the gods of this world? The nannies are so annoyed by Brand Island. We are more like killers hired to kill this little baby, right?" Hailan asked.
"We are killers hired to kill the baby's bodyguards, not the baby itself. The gods of this world intend to directly rob the property left by the baby's biological father! Instead of taking good care of the baby like the law thieves.
Take the property, but...the baby's bodyguard, that is, the crystal disease does not allow the gods to do this, and even if the gods get close to the baby, they may be killed by the bodyguards."
Jiang Qiao didn't know if he understood Hai Lan's description like this. To put it simply... there is a being that does not belong to this world dormant on Bailand Island, but it is still very weak, so weak that it cannot control its own power, and even
Will be tortured by his own powerful strength.
The gods of this world want to get this power, but they may be infected by the crystal disease just by getting close, so they let the Holy Spirits come over to weaken the crystal disease, and then find a way to occupy the power buried under this island.
Jiang Qiao guessed that letting the God's Chosen sacrifice to the Sky Frost Dragon is one of the methods. The Sky Frost Dragon is equivalent to the embodiment of the chaotic consciousness of Brand Island. If the Shadow God's Chosen can control the Sky Frost Dragon by some means
...It is tantamount to stealing one-seventh of the power of Brand Island.
"Then are we... going to take away the baby's property?" Hailan guessed what Jiang Qiao meant by wanting it all.
"You're stupid, Brand Island itself is a very important resource, and its power is also secondary, so what we have to do is to become the baby's designated stepfather! Let it follow us willingly, and then its property will be
It legitimately belongs to us!" Jiang Qiao said.
"But the specific operation method..." Hai Lan looked at the three assimilation values thoughtfully.
"Teach our values of life and three views to Brand Island. It also means this when it asks for help... Players only need to expand their stronghold in the Spirit Vein Forest, recruit new crystal disease-infected people, or feed this island
The creatures on the island can be used as pets, which can increase the assimilation value of the area, so that Brand Island will learn the players' way of life...no...existence."
Jiang Qiao could not regard the learning on Brand Island as ordinary learning. The learning on this island was a law-like concept, just like law thieves who could imitate the skills of players for no reason.
Brand Island is also learning the ability of the God-Eating God.
"The most straightforward thing is to teach this island how to be a server. After it learns it, we can directly transfer it to our main world or the other world." Jiang Qiao said.
"Will it really go so smoothly? Do the magic thieves and other gods know this?" Hailan asked again.
"The law thieves must know, and they want to dominate the consciousness of Brand Island. The gods currently just want to steal the power of Brand Island, but I don't know if they will...continue to play the role of cruel stepfathers in the future.
Already."
Jiang Qiao glanced at the black soil swamp area on the map. This area is currently not developed by anyone. As long as any god leads his people to this area, Brand Island will gradually begin to learn this area.
The existence of a group of people.
"But what I have to admit is... At this stage, Brand Island is biased towards magic thieves. I still need to explore ways to specifically increase the assimilation value, but what we have to do next is to strongly encourage players to build strongholds! This point
That's right!" Jiang Qiao turned his attention to the Spirit Vein Forest area again.
Players have now established thirty-four strongholds in the Spirit Vein Forest. The assimilation value contributed by these strongholds can be seen by Jiang Qiao on the projection.
Among them, Coke Frenzy's stronghold made the little baby on Brand Island very happy, with an assimilation value of 5.1%, followed by the Jumping Nuclear Guild's stronghold, with an assimilation value of 4.1%.
"The more people infected by the crystal disease, the higher the bonuses of various buildings in the stronghold?" Jiang Qiao guessed at the method of increasing the assimilation value.
Jiang Qiao closed the system book in his hand, opened the Holy Spirit Forum and began to browse a series of news and intelligence related to Brand Island.
One of the posts caught Jiang Qiao's attention.
"After the stronghold is built, there are no rankings or ratings. The monster siege event will only be triggered once or twice. Dog planner, please brush some monsters at the door of my stronghold. The newly built cannon will be rusty.
"Posted by: Can Xin.
‘Be careful of killing a lot of lord monsters and destroying your stronghold.’ Replyer: Cruel Moonlight.
‘I have never seen such a strange request. Thousands of people wrote a book planning to spawn monsters and demolish the stronghold of the Abyss Temple.’ Reply: Dogs don’t taste good.
"Most players just want to build a beautiful big house when building a stronghold. I think there should be a stronghold ranking system. I want to see what the stronghold attributes of the big guys are like." Replyer: Haskabi.
Jiang Qiao looked at this post and fell into deep thought. If...the monsters on Brand Island are also the embodiment of the island's consciousness, will these monsters also increase their assimilation value by fighting the Holy Spirit?
"But let's make the ranking list first. We'll think about it after the monsters attack the city." Jiang Qiao knew that playing games without any excitement is indeed... very boring, but there are also many farming players.
