Chapter 87: Settlement, 'Swallowing Souls and Refining Nerves'
In the silent main god space square, standing under the main god's big ball of light, Zhou Ming felt like he was suddenly separated from this world.
Although the total time of this plot world is less than two months, Zhou Ming has experienced more battles than the past year combined.
The high-density and high-intensity battle gave Zhou Ming unparalleled will training. He grew up in pain and stood firm in the temper.
But now, the plot world is over and it’s finally time to reap the rewards.
[The task settlement is completed, please check it yourself.]
[Mission 1: Go to Dick State and find Dr. Max. The mission has been completed and 1000 reward points have been obtained. Mission completion evaluation: Excellent. 】
[Mission 2: Protect Dr. Max from arriving in Shandar City. The mission has been completed and 3000 reward points were obtained. Mission completion evaluation: Excellent. 】
[Mission 3: Protect Shandar City until the production of Kenny's potion is completed. The mission has been successful and 5000 reward points have been obtained. Mission completion evaluation: perfect. 】
[Kill reward settlement: Normal zombies are killed, 588 reward points are obtained; junior mutants are killed 336, and 336 reward points are obtained; advanced mutants are killed 59, and 5900 reward points are obtained; super mutants are killed
If you kill 18, you will get bonus points; if you kill 2 ultimate mutants, you will get bonus points and two special rewards. Killing performance will not be included in the overall evaluation of the mission, nor will it be included in the bonus points and special rewards.
】
[Overall mission evaluation: nine stars.]
[Obtain special reward one: 190% bonus to the total number of reward points.]
[Obtain special reward two: nine-star lottery qualification once, you can choose to draw specifically or randomly.]
[Obtain special reward three: Special reward for killing the ultimate mutant twice.]
[Obtain special reward four: prompt for the next mission, this reward will be distributed one day before the mission starts. ]
[The next mission world will be entered in 90 days.]
After all three main tasks are completed, the reward points obtained are 9,000, which is the point after 190%.
Coupled with the cumulative reward points obtained from killing zombies, in the end, the total number of reward points Zhou Ming received was 3 points.
This is because the reward points Zhou Ming received for killing zombies are not included in the 190% bonus, otherwise the reward points he received would even exceed the 100,000 mark!
"One mission rewards 60,000 points. Haha, it is indeed the last opportunity among the three novice missions to increase points!"
With a chuckle, Zhou Ming looked at the mission settlement again, but noticed an unreasonable point.
"In the second mission, I was chased by the ultimate mutant. I don't know how much strength I spent to reach Xandar City safely, but I only got one excellent rating?"
"On the contrary, in the third mission, I have never even entered Xandar City, but the mission evaluation is excellent."
"Could it be said that the Lord God's evaluation criterion for task completion is not how difficult it is to complete the task, but how to complete the task better and simpler?"
Zhou Ming thought carefully and found that his guess seemed to be correct.
If in the second mission, Zhou Ming and the others can reach Shandar City in the shortest time, even without any battle, the evaluation of this mission will be greatly improved.
In the same way, in the third mission, although Zhou Ming never set foot in Sandar City, he single-handedly wiped out the zombies hundreds of miles away from Sandar City, so that Sandar City did not even break out in a month.
Fight against the zombie attack.
Therefore, the evaluation of Zhou Ming's third mission was perfect beyond "excellent", and the overall evaluation of this mission finally reached nine stars.
Compared to the Samurai World Quest in the second game, which relies on a well-rated hidden quest and a triggered hidden plot, it only gets eight stars in total. The value of this "perfect" rating is self-evident.
"Calculating it this way, there are actually many aspects of this plot that can improve the evaluation. The establishment of Sandar City, Dr. Max's genetic evolution research, and even the origin of the zombie virus may all reveal hidden plots."
"Unfortunately, I still don't have enough wisdom. If I followed the path of wisdom, I might be able to analyze more information and greatly increase the benefits again."
Although the Way of Wisdom is an enduring path in the Gu world, its inheritance has never been widespread and only a few Gu masters have access to it. Even if Zhou Ming wanted to follow the Way of Wisdom, he did not have the conditions.
He could exchange the items from the Lord God for things that might be related to the Way of Wisdom, and take them back to the Gu world to try his luck to see if he can refine the Way of Wisdom Gu worms.
It's just that the cost of this method is too high. The path Zhou Ming himself took has not reached the bottleneck, so there is no need to take this path.
After completing the task settlement, the next step is the usual lottery time.
The first was to qualify for a nine-star lottery. Zhou Ming also chose the designated draw as usual.
[If you choose to qualify for the designated lottery, you will get the following five reward options: Drought Demon Blood (one drop), Tree of Life Root (one section), Soul-Swallowing Nerve Refining, Divine Sword Beiming, and Sky Sniper.]
Drought Demon's Blood: Zombie, the resentment of heaven and earth, not in the five elements of heaven and earth, and unable to enter the six reincarnations. Drought Demon is cruel, as if it is burning. A drop of Drought Demon's blood can turn a person into a zombie, and directly enter the realm of immortality.
Roots of the Tree of Life: Growing in the Garden of Eden, the tree of immortality has endless potential in one root.
Swallowing souls to refine nerves: kill billions, swallow souls to refine gods! Devour the souls of other living beings to nourish your own body and enhance your own soul.
Divine Sword Beiming: It is made from the marrow of ten thousand years of black ice in the North Sea. When the magical sword is unsheathed, everything freezes. The magical weapon has spirit and will not hurt its owner.
Sky Sniper: Heavy sniper, a product of the combination of electromagnetic structure and rune technology. The powerful kinetic energy combined with special bullets is enough to instantly break through powerful barrier shields and destroy large war structures.
The same as last time, there are still five rewards, but there is less Sword Dao and one more Drought Demon blood than last time. This should be the reason why Zhou Ming removed the Sword Dao Gu from his body and replaced it with the Corpse Heart Gu.
Each nine-star reward is very precious.
However, this time Zhou Ming chose the fastest one.
"Swallowing souls and refining nerves, this is it!"
Zhou Ming's soul has reached the limit of a hundred souls in the zombie world. After several days of condensation with the Wood Soul Gu, it has now been transformed into a Wood Soul. The upper limit has been increased and can be further strengthened.
However, using pure soul crystal to strengthen the soul is not a long-term solution.
It took a total of 50,000 reward points and a hundred days to strengthen him to a hundred souls. If he wanted to strengthen to a thousand souls, using this method would consume too much time and resources.
Zhou Ming has been looking for other ways to improve his soul, but he has not yet found a very suitable method, whether in the Gu world or the main god space.
There are many Soul Dao techniques in the Main God Space, but most of them have pre-requisite training requirements, such as those that require the Ancestral Aperture between the Eyebrows, those that require Soul Immortal Roots, those that require the opening of a Mysterious Entrance Aperture, etc. There are many tools to enhance the soul.
Like Soul Crystal, the price/performance ratio is not as high as Pure Soul Crystal.
In the Gu world, although the Soul Dao is now a majestic avenue, the method of improving one's foundation is not just a shabby thing.
In the original work, Dongfang Yuliang, the patriarch of the Dongfang Family of the Golden Family in Beiyuan, used the family's secret Coptidis Gu and Lingchi Gu, and suffered a lot. It took him ten years to upgrade his soul to Thousand Souls.
This is already a quite remarkable achievement among Gu masters. Not to mention the effects of ordinary Gu insects, Zhou Ming could not expect them at all.
But now, Zhou Ming found a new hope.
The designated lottery rewards given by the Lord God have a minimum principle, that is, Zhou Ming can use them, and they will definitely be able to use them.
Just like after the end of the first plot world, the wood spirit root obtained by lottery has no prerequisites for use, you can just take it and use it.
It's just that Zhou Ming didn't know how to use it himself, so he spent 200 reward points to have the Lord God strengthen it for him.
Now Zhou Ming can be 100% sure that the "Soul Swallowing and Nerve Refining" is definitely the same. Under the premise of ensuring that Zhou Ming can practice, the Lord God can also directly strengthen him with one click.
As Zhou Ming confirmed his choice, the Lord God's prompt confirmed his guess.
[After obtaining "Swallowing Souls and Refining Nerves", you can choose to practice it yourself or have it strengthened by the Lord God. You can get started directly. Strengthening requires 2000 reward points. 】
"Only 2000?" Zhou Ming smiled scornfully and immediately chose to strengthen.
Are 2,000 bonus points still money to him?
A beam of light fell down, shrouding Zhou Ming.
In the light pillar, countless tiny light particles turned into tiny runes, constantly rotating and integrating into Zhou Ming's body.
Zhou Ming's mind echoed with the essence of formulas and practice methods. A mysterious and mysterious feeling formed in his mind and spread instantly.
Naturally, Zhou Ming knew how to practice the "Swallowing Soul and Refining Nerve" and how to activate it.
Just like when he was learning to ride a bicycle as a child, he suddenly learned it one day, and from then on he rode smoothly, turning it into an instinctive reaction like breathing.
The beam of light disappeared suddenly, and Zhou Ming fell back to the ground. However, he was not overjoyed by this enhancement, but frowned slightly.
"Swallowing Souls and Refining Nerves" is a completely demonic technique, a naked way of plundering!
As we all know, although magic techniques are quick and powerful, they generally have side effects.
When the technique is activated to devour the soul, the memories and emotions of the devoured soul will also blend with the own soul, causing memory conflicts, emotional confusion, and ultimately mental confusion and complete madness.
What are the chances of this being a madman? Ninety-nine percent! Almost all the beings who practiced this magic skill went crazy in the end.
Countless personalities are born and die at any time, and you can't even tell who you are. What can such a being, no matter how powerful it is, do?
When Zhou Ming learned this technique, he also knew the disadvantages of this technique, so he frowned.
"Let's look for ways to solve the problem later."
With this in mind, Zhou Ming continued to look at the harvest behind him.
In addition to a nine-star lottery qualification, there are also special rewards for killing the ultimate mutant twice.
(I’ll post one chapter first, and the second chapter in the afternoon. I’m visiting relatives during the Mid-Autumn Festival, and I’m seriously running out of time. It’s difficult.)
