After the Sporadic Mill is resolved, the players' task of building teleport points will no longer be hindered by any obstacles.
Originally, purifying nightmares three times was not a difficult condition.
If given the choice, players will definitely give priority to purifying the nightmare with the lowest difficulty.
Anyway, they are basically at the bronze level now.
You can also eat nightmares of normal difficulty to get full rewards... When you advance to Silver and you have to clear nightmares of hard difficulty or above to upgrade, it won't be so easy to gain experience.
After Bernardino is killed, players are out of the initial "novice period".
From Frozen Water Port to the Royal Capital, the "dungeons" they used when upgrading and the enemies they killed were basically provided by Annan for free. Not only were they large in quantity, the keys were easy to get, but there was no one to control them.
And when they left the royal capital and each found their own way to travel, they gradually realized... that it was actually quite difficult to find high-quality nightmares.
Generally speaking, unless you are a high-IQ player who is particularly familiar with this process, after entering an unknown ordinary-level nightmare, you will almost have to die once or twice before you can start to clear the level.
And for this kind of nightmare, the rewards are basically very stingy.
For example, it may be limited to increasing the level of the swordsman profession, or only increasing the level of the rogue...or it may be given a skill that cannot be used, or even multiple curses may be inexplicably given.
There are not many nightmares with puzzle content, and usually the durability is completely defeated before the puzzle is completely solved - it may have been defeated before, and then left directly because it felt that the reward was not good. The result will be given directly to the back.
People are left with an endgame.
The problem is that players can't see how much of the nightmare is left.
Only priests who specialize in nightmares can use the ritual to accurately see how many times the nightmare is left.
The result is that after clearing the level two or three times, the solution density has reached more than 60%, maybe even 90%, and the puzzle is about to be completely solved.
Then there were no more times.
——I hate it so much that the players are itching their teeth.
If you want to fight the front part, just finish it!
Who is left to see the endgame!
But it’s not enough if you don’t have nightmares.
The reason is also very simple...
...because killing is illegal.
And after reaching the bronze level, ordinary people no longer give experience; but extraordinary people are not that easy to fight, and it is easy to cause trouble if they are really killed.
In fact, some cheap players have been chased for thousands of miles by silver-level old hunters. They have died twice so far, and the experience deducted from death is more than ten times more than the experience gained from killing...
To this day, his "Diary of the Hunted" is still serialized in blood and tears on the forum. It has become the second most read post every day. This friend uses his own personal experience to let players who don't like to cause trouble and are more cautious read it.
You can enjoy it. You don’t need to commit suicide yourself, but it can also greatly enrich your experience of committing suicide.
By the way, the most read post is written by Delicious Wind Goose, which records many practical tools for simple rituals.
Delicious Wind Goose has not gone far on the road of ritual master, and the knowledge he carries is not heavy enough to be taught. If he tells others this knowledge, he will lose the same weight of knowledge.
But he found a trick...
He used some brief knowledge of rituals to draw in the real world using a drawing program and a stick figure drawing mode.
He didn't use pen and paper to write it out in detail because it would definitely trigger forgetfulness - he had already tried it once. Even if he wrote down the ritual knowledge on the earth, it would really trigger the forgetfulness mechanism. He was so frightened that he directly wrote this
I read the piece of knowledge again, and then burned the paper.
Delicious Wind Goose was very excited at the time, thinking that he was going to become a ritual master on Earth - but as expected, these rituals seemed to be useless on Earth.
But fortunately, when Delicious Wind Goose recorded the ceremony using the abstract narrative method of "soul painter-level stick figure drawing combined with numbers", it really did not trigger the forgetting mechanism.
——This seems to be regarded as the creation of "pseudo-canon".
After that, Delicious Wind Goose printed out this knowledge, took screenshots, and uploaded it to the frozen water port forum, allowing players to "enlighten themselves" by looking at the stick figures.
As a result, this post was viewed by hundreds or even thousands of people. Some were seriously guessing, some were joking, some were funny... everyone was "expressing their own opinions".
Then Tasty Wind Goose pinned the correctly guessed "Look at pictures and tell stories" post to the top. Then the players understood it.
This is what this ceremony is supposed to do.
——It is like the "key" to the apocrypha.
Although the players still do not possess this mysterious knowledge, they can still successfully perform the ritual by following the instructions - of course, it is limited to rituals that "do not consume mysterious knowledge".
In this way, Delicious Wind Goose also roughly understood why there is such a thing as apocryphal books...
Because creating apocryphal texts really does not consume knowledge!
As long as "accurate" knowledge is not completely output, it will not be judged as "teaching".
This strange judgment makes Yummy Wind Goose always feel that something is wrong... This is not like a natural rule, but more like a man-made constraint.
After all, I have never heard of Earth OL being stuck with bugs...
By the way, in the post of Delicious Wind Goose, the ritual with the highest praise is the ritual that affects "preservation".
Compared with those weird nightmares.
The nightmare obtained from the influence can only be fought once.
But at least the reward is generous.
Because it is a random arrangement, the rewards you get must be something you can use.
...Of course, the difficulty is not necessarily the same.
After experiencing all kinds of fucking nightmares, players have regarded nightmares as limited-time, limited-time dungeons with extremely generous returns.
Adhering to the idea of "eat the free food first, and then eat your own food", the "low-level influence: Leviathan's breath" that Lin Yiyi and the others received when passing through the undersea tunnel was also well preserved.
From this influence, a random nightmare on hard difficulty can be opened.
The most profitable thing is to wait until you have advanced to silver and then fight again.
They were still three bronze players at the time, and it was really a waste to play the hard level nightmare.
The reason why I say "at that time"...
It's because now Lin Yiyi has successfully advanced. The silver jewelry Nefertari gave her is just in use.
——It is the [Blue Holy Guard].
Once she gets used to the new spells and professional abilities, Lin Yiyi is ready to start playing hard-level nightmares and continue to level up.
"——Are you going to leave for a while?"
Neusser was a little surprised.
But he quickly smiled and said: "That doesn't matter, the spore mill has been purified. We already owe you a big favor.
"If you want to leave, it's best to wait a few more days, because the gifts are still being prepared..."
"We won't be leaving soon. We have to purify some nightmares before we leave. Someone will come here and take over our work."
Jiu'er explained.
Neusser was thoughtful.
"...Are you going to do something else?"
He asked with concern: "Can I help?"
"Maybe."
Annan replied with a smile.
He glanced at Jiu'er and Si Anke and guessed what they were thinking.
After Jiu'er and Si Anke complete the teleportation point mission here and get the mission rewards... they will almost reach the "promotion match".
In other words, it’s time to prepare the advanced nightmare that will be used when advancing to the silver level.
But the two of them haven't figured out what the advanced options are.
Lin Yiyi has designated advancements, so she doesn’t need to be distracted too much.
Delicious Wind Goose thinks that Juggernaut is very good and meets his needs quite well.
But neither Si An Ke nor Jiu'er wanted to advance to a common advancement casually——
And Jiu'er couldn't travel by herself.
She is really too small and looks like a little girl.
If you go out by yourself, you might get into trouble... No, you will definitely get into trouble!
Then you have to bring four dark engravings.
But since you have brought Brother Kezi with you, you might as well take Sister Gangzi with you. Otherwise, she will definitely be lonely if she stays here alone.
Although they had just said that they would stay to purify their nightmares, they felt a little embarrassed about leaving.
But the matter still needs to be brought up.
The worst thing is to come back after advancing.
Where can I find more copies of the underground world?
After hearing Annan's response, Neuser took another look at the silver jewelry on Lin Yiyi's chest.
He tentatively replied:
"If you are troubled by the issue of advanced professions...
"Why don't you follow me and ask Nefertari?
"She is a real wise person. She has read a lot of books and is very knowledgeable. I think she should be able to help you."
The golden retriever didn't have any psychological burden, so he sold his socially fearful childhood sweetheart.
The players looked at each other and then looked at Annan.
Annan's expression was also a little strange.
...What, do you have a lot of information about advanced professions here?
It just so happens that the third batch of players is about to arrive here... At that time, more than 200 people will come at once, and I haven't decided what level to let them advance to.
You came just in time!
