My Post-Apocalyptic Shelter Levels Up Infinitely! - Chapter 1429
[1419. Chapter 1399 New considerations, restart of deployment!]
If his idea could really allow every human being to have the possibility of becoming a god, it would naturally usher in a new era.
In this era, almost everyone will benefit from perfectly following Lao Zhang’s views.
Moreover, once desires expand to the level of becoming gods, it will naturally be difficult for any fear to suppress them.
“You’re right. That’s exactly what I was thinking. Aren’t there many people saying that if the route can be upgraded continuously, they will have all kinds of super powers? I was thinking, if this route can be upgraded indefinitely, wouldn’t humans also have the opportunity to become gods?”
The physical fitness bonus brought by the increase of attribute points alone has made many survivors fantasize about what kind of invincible combat power they will have when they max out the points one day.
Coupled with the various special abilities that come with route upgrades, the gains of these abilities are even more fascinating than technology for certain specific groups of people.
For example, a chef’s apprentice, with just one special flavor bonus, is better than even the most advanced cooking machine.
Another example is a scavenger, who has the mysterious ability to sense high-value objects.
These are things that cannot be brought by Earth’s technology, and will naturally be sought after by the survivors.
Now there are even many territories that have completely given up on developing technology and turned to researching routes.
Before, Luo You found it difficult to tell whether this approach was right or wrong, but now that he has figured out his own desires and goals, he thinks this approach is absolutely right.
As long as you complete the tasks given in the game and gain experience, you can get intuitive bonuses.
As for technology, 99.9% of the people are users, so it is not easy to restore it.
If one wants to have a persistent intention, one must set a long-term desired goal and a source of motivation that can help him or her keep moving forward.
Improving the route level just meets this requirement.
Treat “becoming a god” as a long-term desire and goal, as the answer, and then establish gaining experience and increasing levels as a source of motivation.
Doesn’t this coincide with Soma’s theory?
“If the route is infinitely improved, one can become a god.”
Su Mo thought about it carefully and decided that if he could continue with this method, there was a real possibility of becoming a god.
There are currently three known ways to become a so-called “god”.
The first is the ‘borrowing divine method’ that has been personally verified by humans in future ruins.
As long as one can establish a connection with the godhead left behind by the spirit of death, one can instantly possess the authority that comes with the godhead, that is, obtain a pistol without bullets.
If you find the bullets needed for the pistol, which is divine power, you can reach the level of Tengu pseudo-god.
Depending on the amount of divine power, the upper limit of the abilities that gods can use will also be different.
I won’t go into too much detail about this for now.
The second is the ‘Faith to Become a God’ method which is the most common in the universe and is also used by alien races.
Gather enough creatures to form a faith, and then use special methods to gather the power of this faith.
Ignite the divine fire, forge the divine nature, and then you can become a god.
However, this method requires humans to overcome cognitive barriers, which is completely impossible to achieve without special help.
The third type is the gods bestowed by the will of the world.
For example, Adam directly selected many people from the first generation of humans in the Butterfly Universe and promoted them to gods.
Granting them authority and divine power, they will naturally become qualified gods.
Improving the route level to become a god is just a variation of the third method.
Adam exchanged a certain amount of life force and opened up an upward channel for mankind.
Well, the word ‘channel’ can indeed be used to describe this approach.
Those attribute points that allow humans to continuously improve their physical fitness are the result of the materialization of the wandering divine power.
Humans complete tasks, accept divine power into their bodies, and when they reach a certain level, they are considered to have upgraded their level.
Part of the divine power becomes attribute points, which are used to improve physical fitness, and the other part becomes the power source for the abilities attached to the route.
This is also the reason why ordinary routes upgrade quickly and rare routes upgrade slowly.
The more ordinary the route, the more divine power will be used to supply physical fitness, and only a small part will be distributed to special abilities.
The rarer the route, the more divine power is required to upgrade, and special abilities will account for a large part of it.
This is also the fundamental reason why Su Mo has not been keen on upgrading the route level since a long time ago.
On the road to becoming a god, he had already reached the end of this road in the future ruins. Having mastered that kind of unparalleled extraordinary power, he knew clearly how great its disadvantages were.
Moreover, if becoming a god could solve the problems currently facing the Giant Mountain Star Domain, then the gods of the first generation Butterfly Universe would have completed their tasks long ago, and there would be no need for the subsequent dozens of waves of players to sacrifice themselves.
“I still can’t decide everything based on my personal opinion. After staying in the territory for a long time, most people are indeed not so enthusiastic about upgrading the route level due to my influence. However, the situation outside is not like that. I have to observe more.”
Su Mo kept hearing Luo You’s excited voice in his ears, talking about the prospect of humans becoming gods.
This also made him slightly change his previous thoughts.
If becoming a god is the goal, it can motivate most humans to be like Luo You and have renewed hope for the future.
So what if he promised them a chance to become gods?
After thinking this through, Su Mo decided that when he encountered a passing fishing boat on the way to his next destination, he would not choose to bypass it, but would stick close to them and communicate with them one-on-one.
As the most enterprising and adventurous survivors today, these people’s ideas are very representative.
“Brother, if you have any questions, just ask me. I would never dare to lie to you about what I know.”
The dark-skinned man protected his little son. Although he had a flattering smile on his face, his eyes would occasionally glance at the shining pistol on Su Mo’s waist and the guerrilla boat floating on the river behind him.
It would be a lie to say I wasn’t afraid, but besides fear I also felt a bit excited.
“What route did you choose?”
“My son is also a handicraft enthusiast.”
“What level?”
“Level seven.” The man hesitated, but finally answered truthfully.
It is normal for everyone in the gathering place to hide the true route level from each other.
First, the level is basically related to the combat effectiveness of the survivors, and second, they are afraid of causing jealousy among other players on the same route.
However, when facing outsiders, there are not so many concerns. Since the other party asks directly, he must have other purposes.
“How do you think the route helped you?”
“You mean”
“Literally, do you think upgrading the route level will help you survive?”
“That’s great!” the man said to Su Mo with a smile.
“In addition to the physical fitness added by the attribute points, you can see the sampan under me, the oars, fishing rods, fishing nets, and those miscellaneous small things in my hands. I can’t make all of these without the help of the route.”
“If it weren’t for it, I would have died a long time ago.”
“Nonsense, I won’t let you die.” The man’s youngest son, who was protected behind him, suddenly said. He looked to be about fifteen years old, and the childishness on his face could not be concealed by his dark skin.
“Okay, okay, my child is very filial, you won’t die.”
He is still a man from northern Shaanxi.
Su Mo was deeply moved by the scene of loving father and filial son, and the cold expression on his face loosened a little.
“Brother, what is this?” The man took it in great surprise, and was stunned when he took a look at the packaging.
Hard candy!
The packaging is still new.
Where did this living god come from? He asked him two questions and was paid for it?
“Take it, as payment for asking you questions.”
Su Mo nodded, turned around and prepared to jump back onto the guerrilla boat.
But after thinking about it while standing by the boat, he turned around and asked, “Have you heard that if you keep improving your route level, you will become a god one day?”
“Become a god?”
The man was still immersed in the joy of getting a handful of hard candy. Hearing this, he nodded happily and said:
“Of course I have heard of it, and many people in our Baiyu Village believe it. They think that if the route level is high, it will definitely have various special abilities, and becoming a god is just around the corner.”
“Do you believe it?”
“I don’t believe it.” The man immediately shook his head.
Don’t believe it?
Su Mo was a little surprised and wanted to ask curiously.
However, the man patted his chest and said, “That’s a Western god. What does it have to do with us Chinese? If our route is high, we will become the Jade Emperor. No, my route is not very good. It’s just an ordinary route. As long as I can become a heavenly soldier, I will be satisfied. I will never be afraid of disasters again.”
“Answer: I think your ideal can only make you a small soldier or a crab general.”
“What’s wrong with the shrimp soldiers and crab generals?” The man turned around and glared at his son: “They are also the Water Dragon King’s men.”
Well, so it’s not that you don’t want to become a god, but that you don’t want to become a Western God?
The first research subject encountered a strange thing. Su Mo couldn’t help but hold his forehead and jumped back to the guerrilla boat with his legs.
Woo.
The underwater propeller started moving, pushing the guerrilla boat quickly away from the vicinity of the sampan.
Watching the waves on the river moving from near to far and the guerrilla boat turning into a black dot and disappearing, the man covered his chest and took a few breaths.
“Answer, why are you so nervous? I don’t think that person just now is a bad guy.”
“Good guy, bad guy, you know nothing. Don’t tell anyone what happened today when you go back.”
The man sat on the sampan, his hands still shaking uncontrollably.
The current harsh environment in the wasteland has completely deprived people of the possibility of equal communication.
When facing powerful survivors, ordinary people are like livestock. Whether they will be slaughtered depends on the other party’s current mood.
Just like now, even if Su Mo gave him a reward, the man didn’t want to encounter this situation again.
The risks and benefits are totally disproportionate. One wrong move could cost the lives of both father and son.
But thinking of this, the man turned around and thought that there was actually one most important point he had not mentioned.
The route is of immense help. It not only gives ordinary people the ability to survive at the moment, but also gives them the courage and possibility to catch up with the strong in the future.
This is an upward path that everyone is eligible to participate in.
Regardless of background, ability, qualifications, or any other factors.
As long as you are a player, you can join a territory and choose a route that suits you to participate in the competition.
If he lost it, the man didn’t even dare to think about the consequences.
Because just when this thought arose, he had the urge to give up his life.
It was evening.
After returning from another sampan, Su Mo basically confirmed his considerations yesterday.
They were just chance acquaintances, and even if some individuals deliberately catered to his views due to the gap in strength between the two parties, it was impossible that every one of the sixteen people he met would tell lies.
For ordinary survivors, the route has indeed become the most important pillar for their survival.
This result was something he had never expected before Luo You brought it up last night.
Thinking back to a few days ago when he was still in the World Cauldron’s space, he mocked Adam for his reckless use of his vitality.
Su Mo couldn’t help but feel a little uneasy. Adam shouldn’t be able to see this scene, right?
Damn, this is a bit embarrassing.
As the core of the world that has existed for hundreds of thousands of years, Adam’s knowledge should not be underestimated.
Whether it was the deployment of Blue Star forces that he chose, or the route capabilities that he gave to humanity as a whole, even though Adam’s original intention did not match the current situation, the help it brought was indeed unquestionable.
The former brought huge development opportunities to the Tianyuan Territory, and the latter gave countless ordinary people the confidence to survive.
It is just like the saying goes, one cannot see the true appearance of Mount Lu because one is already in it.
Because there has been no direct survival pressure for a long time, Su Mo does not feel that the attribute gains brought by the route can provide any qualitative help to the current Tianyuan territory and individuals.
On the contrary, the development and recovery of science and technology will always have an immediate impact on the continuous progress of the territory.
Comparing the two, there is indeed nothing wrong with the view that technology is the right path and routes are only short-term substitutes.
However, for other territories, not to mention the small territories, there are large territories with millions of people.
To this day, they haven’t even restored the most basic conditions for energy use, so how can they expect technology?
The route is the only life-saving straw at the moment.
But human dependence is terrifying. Once you identify the help of a route, it will be difficult to get rid of it.
“Luckily I came out, otherwise if I stayed in the territory, when would I realize this?”
Su Mo suddenly felt a little fortunate because he came to the Southern Fire Region because of the Mining Island Alliance’s call for help.
No wonder the aliens did not launch an all-out war with humans as they did in the future ruins.
The expansion of area is one aspect, and the improvement of the overall quality of human beings with the help of routes is probably another factor.
But is it true that the route is only helpful and has no disadvantages?
Su Mo thought secretly that although this upward path was open to everyone, it was actually not fair at all.
The gaps between the combat route, auxiliary route, and life route
are too large, and the levels will also cause a series of conflicts.
Let’s take the following disaster as an example. If a beast tide strikes, and the players on the battle route force the players on the life route to serve as cannon fodder, how should the latter resist?
These practical problems definitely require a complete set of regulations to manage and constrain them.
However, just as Su Mo was thinking about how to set the rules, the game panel that had been silent for a long time suddenly popped up.
[Record]: Attention all players, the 15th disaster ‘Death Tide’ will be officially announced in five minutes.
[Record]: Please note that this disaster is a special type of disaster, and a disaster exchange store will be opened.
[Record]: Please note that it is detected that the current player base no longer meets the maximum number of players. When this disaster is activated, the game will restart the delivery mechanism
[Record]: The delivery range this time is: (8-15, 53-60)
[Record]: Taking into account the special population portrait of this launch and the current version progress of Wasteland, this launch will cancel the principle of nearby relatives and adopt a new binding launch mechanism. For specific rules, players can enter the game panel to view the launch details.
[Record]: I wish you a happy game!
