My Post-Apocalyptic Shelter Levels Up Infinitely! - Chapter 1431
[1421. Chapter 1401: Brainstorming, Divine Rules!]
If we calculate the price based on the hard currency food in the disaster store, one kilogram of food only requires 5 points, so this card is worth two tons of food, which is a sky-high price.
Not to mention the material express card with 50,000 points. Even if Su Mo wants to use it himself, he has to think carefully and consider the cost-effectiveness.
But then again, the products from the disaster store are really expensive, but they are also really useful.
These items, which are manifested by the power of life, are actually of the same nature as the cards rewarded in previous games. They all possess some magical powers that science cannot currently explain.
Speaking of vitality.
In the past few days after the in-depth communication with Adam, Su Mo has been thinking about some in-depth issues derived from it every night, including special disasters that were previously incomprehensible, disappearing game functions, abrupt game version updates, etc.
To this day, he has basically found a clear answer.
First up is the special disaster and disappearance game features.
Unlike environmental disasters that cover the entire wasteland, astronomical disasters will force every player to participate in them. These disasters with special signs seem to leave players with a certain amount of escape space.
For example, this time’s tide of death beasts.
The beast tide released by the game will only impact every established gathering place and will not set foot in other places.
This also means that if players choose to disperse and leave the territory during a disaster, they will not be affected by the disaster.
When Su Mo first encountered it, he was wondering how the game could tolerate such an obvious loophole and let players avoid disasters?
However, after understanding the nature of the disaster, everything had an answer.
When players survive any disaster, they will digest the power of destruction and generate vitality equivalent to it according to the degree of digestion.
The vitality generated after the covering disaster will be handed over to the domain master or the world will for use.
That is to say, in the traditional sense of concentrating resources to accomplish great things, the world’s will can gather vitality in one place.
For example, opening up a secret trading realm that everyone is eligible to enter, creating a storage space that all players can use, creating routes that benefit all people, changing the terrain conditions of the new continent, and releasing more creatures, these are also changes brought about by vitality.
This also explains why functions that are beneficial to players in the early stages, such as trading secrets, storage spaces, world chat, etc., all disappear after several version updates.
It’s not that Adam thinks the players don’t need it, but that too much vitality is consumed, and the supply is under great pressure.
And after the Tengu false god incident ended and Adam discovered the variable of Soma, he would no longer waste his life on those ordinary people.
Not to mention the storage space, which obviously consumes a lot of vitality. During the time when the ocean came, even the world channel was closed.
Now that I think about it, the opening of special copies such as Candlelight Ruins, Deep Sea Ruins, and Future Ruins should all be the product of Adam’s massive investment of vitality.
The purpose is to quickly mature this variable.
Special disasters are exactly the opposite of ordinary disasters.
The former is to hand over the harvest and concentrate the efforts on big things, while the latter is to work harder and get more pay, and have control over the harvest yourself.
The vitality generated by the disaster will be materialized as points that can be used in the disaster store.
The more destructive power players absorb, the more vitality they can use.
“According to human nature, this special type of disaster is obviously more reasonable than a disaster without rewards. Players will not only not avoid disasters, but will take the initiative to face them. However.”
Su Mo thought about it and felt that this idea was actually only suitable for the current situation.
If it were the first year after the wasteland was crossed, 99% of humans would try to escape even if they could exchange items in the disaster store.
In other words, now that everyone is accustomed to the wasteland environment and has the ability to resist disasters, the appearance of the death beast tide is just right.
As for the changes in game versions.
This is also related to the input of vitality, but is subject to some game restrictions.
According to Su Mo’s current speculation, the vitality invested at one time should exceed a certain threshold, which obviously causes the living environment of the wasteland to change. Only then will the game come out immediately to make a public announcement and promote the update of the game version.
On the other hand, if there are only minor changes, they will be ignored by the game until the threshold is reached.
“If I could become a true domain master, I could restore the storage space that everyone can use, the chat function without any restrictions, or even give someone the power to rival the gods. I’m afraid I could do it just by thinking about it.”
After closing the game panel, Su Mo looked up at the boundless sky, thinking quietly.
Perhaps in the eyes of others, ending the current chaos in the wasteland is still a long way off, and it is unknown how many years and disasters it will take to achieve it.
But for him, all he needs is two more battles in Wanjing. If he progresses faster, he may be able to do it within three years.
However, is ending the disaster really the end?
The threat facing the Giant Mountain Star Region has not been resolved, and the endless destructive force brewing in the star region still needs to find a suitable way to dissipate it.
Moreover, the alien gods outside the star field who covet this place have not taken their eyes off it, so the big trouble may be yet to come.
Su Mo couldn’t help but sigh.
The simplest known way to dissipate the power of destruction is to capture “wild” gods outside the star field, bring them into the star field for execution, and use their vitality to offset the power of destruction.
But if he went out to catch it alone, even if the universe where the Giant Mountain Star Region was located was destroyed, he might not be able to achieve his goal.
“Perhaps, I should really consider the era of universal deities proposed by Luo You.”
This is the old path that the Butterfly Universe once took with the help of Adam, and it is also the old path that the Giant Mountain Star Domain once took, using war to revive the star domain.
According to the trajectory envisioned by Adam, players should actively go outside the domain and capture the gods to bring them back to eliminate the destruction.
But in reality, based on the knowledge of humans at the time, after obtaining this huge power, they were unable to use it reasonably.
Moreover, humans who have become gods don’t care about the life or death of the Giant Mountain Star Region at all. Even if this place blows up, the worst that can happen to them is that they can just go back to Earth, right?
With this idea in mind, players who treated everything as a virtual game brought even more serious impacts to the Giant Mountain Star Region. The war that was set off once brought the entire super world to the brink of destruction.
If the game hadn’t intervened at the end, there probably wouldn’t have been the subsequent 32 waves of players joining the game.
However, if we divide the process of becoming a god into several different stages and divide them according to the levels of power,
Introduce the entire system of gods into human development and establish a complete way of learning and growth as well as supervision?
For example, the sects in fantasy novels and the academies in magic novels.
The best of the ordinary humans are selected to enter the school, where they learn the basic knowledge while becoming familiar with this special power and various management regulations in the simulated space.
Only humans who have completed a complete round of learning and passed the assessment will be qualified to truly obtain this power.
Generation after generation, it will probably take less than a hundred years to establish a complete and stable system of gods.
Of course, the specific implementation is definitely not as simple as imagined. Not to mention how to end the disaster, there are still countless difficulties to overcome in the integration of the gods’ system and the original human system.
But these are exactly what Su Mo needs to consider at the moment. He found that most people are madly abusing the power granted by the routes. Not only are the combat and life systems hostile to each other, and the high-level and low-level systems are wary of each other, but even the rarity of the routes can create a whole chain of contempt.
Under such conditions, how could one have the qualifications and ability to harness higher-level divine power?
We must first guide people along the route, gradually get everyone to accept the rules one by one, and then introduce real divine power as a supplement, only then will there be a chance of realizing the so-called ‘Global Age of Gods’.
With this thought, Su Mo immediately felt that his confused thoughts became clear.
Since the current route and the future path to the gods can be connected to each other, some of the rules can also be connected.
It would be better to just manage each route as if it were a road to the gods, just as ordinary people think.
And in the final analysis, isn’t it just about finding ways to promote the establishment of rules and regulations to constrain players who own routes in order to ensure the smooth development of the entire system?
This is not difficult. He doesn’t have time to deal with these things now, but the three major families have too many talented people with excellent management skills.
As long as there is a specific research direction and the tasks are broken down, these people can push for completion.
And the more people involved, the better. Everyone can pool their wisdom and avoid situations where the light is not in the dark.
At that time, the worst that can happen is to upgrade the system to ensure that no loopholes appear.
“Hey, why didn’t I think of that before!”
Su Mo slapped his thigh. He was used to working alone, so he felt a little uncomfortable with the idea of cooperation.
Fortunately, the thought of going outside the domain to hunt wild gods reminded him, otherwise it would take some time for him to realize that this kind of work could be handed over to the three major families.
It is much more convenient now. We can pass on the information at night when there are fewer people around. We should be able to receive a similar answer after the disaster is over.
The night fell darker and darker, slowly spreading across the sky of the New World with a deep black and purple color, swallowing up all the noise and starlight.
As the twilight of the night embraced the New World, the vast land did not fall into sleep as usual.
Stars of fire lit up, stubbornly lighting up in the dark night, like stars, echoing the stars in the sky.
Looking down from the sky, these flames are spread across every corner of the New World. They not only represent traces of human activities, but also represent the uneasiness and anxiety in the hearts of the survivors who are worried and unable to sleep due to the release of disaster information.
What’s more rare is that the lords of all territories, including the territories of the three major families, are in the same state tonight, and are in deep worry like ordinary people.
This is the first time that a disaster specifically targeting a territory has occurred in the wasteland.
Even when the territory model was launched long ago, the think tanks of large forces had already speculated that there would be disasters specifically targeting territories in the future.
But no one expected that this day would come so early!
The Western New World.
The Dragon Flag Territory, crawling on the ground like a giant dragon, has an east-west extension of nearly 200 kilometers, and its scale is comparable to that of Qinggang City.
Hundreds of millions of survivors have taken root in this land. With their own hands and wisdom, they have gradually transformed this barren land into a vibrant paradise, and have gathered into a force that cannot be ignored.
Looking down from the sky, the first thing that catches your eye is the square-shaped factory parks, each of which covers a huge area and is composed of rows of bungalows.
In terms of scale, these factory parks are far more terrifying than any industrial city on Earth. The largest factory even covers an area close to two hundred football fields.
Even though it was late at night, it was still brightly lit and bustling with activity. Hundreds of thousands of people were busy moving around inside, operating machines or performing assembly line operations, churning out batch after batch of goods.
This is a sight that cannot be seen in other territories.
Even the Northern Land and Golden Eagle, which are also among the three great families, still cannot reach such a terrifying scale.
It’s a pity that the production of large quantities of ordinary materials cannot bring much sense of security in this disaster-ridden wasteland.
The center of the Dragon Flag territory.
In a secret meeting room built underground.
Long Anguo was puffing on his cigarette, with dark circles under his eyes, silently flipping through the documents in his hand.
Compared with the previous few months, the current development of Longqi Territory is changing with each passing day.
Not only have various basic industries sprung up like mushrooms after a rain driven by human power, and the earth is showing signs of recovering its heyday, but even the more important machinery manufacturing and chemical industries have also recovered.
Up to now, Longqi Territory already has several complete production lines for firepower weapons.
If there are sufficient resources, nearly 10,000 rifles and hundreds of thousands of bullets can be produced every day.
In terms of combat capability alone, it is probably on par with the Dragon Flag Territory in the Future Ruins around the end of the third year of the Wasteland.
However, behind the rapid development, there are also more and more challenges that cannot be ignored.
In recent times, the development of various industries has encountered huge bottlenecks.
The first thing to be affected is the crucial energy aspect.
At present, the energy that Longqi Territory relies on basically comes from simple hydropower generation.
Although this method has alleviated the problem of energy shortage to a certain extent, its limitations are becoming increasingly prominent.
In order to create a sufficient drop in height to drive the waterwheel to generate electricity, the Longqi Territory had to rely on artificially built dams.
However, the construction and maintenance of this type of dam requires a lot of manpower and material resources, and its power generation efficiency is also affected by many factors such as water flow and season.
According to the report jointly submitted by major factories, if the energy problem cannot be solved in the short term, the energy bottleneck will be more serious than it is now after the major factories enter a period of stable development.
By then, the challenges faced will be even more daunting, and some factories may have to close down.
And this is exactly the scene that Long Anguo least wants to see.
The theme of this volume is basically out, and the next step is to officially enter the rhythm of finishing the book, filling in the holes dug before step by step. In fact, this part (the age of gods) was conceived when the book was first published, but unfortunately I wrote too slowly and my ability was not enough, so it has been delayed until now. However, I will not write too much about gods in the future, and will just pass it over in the final volume, so you can rest assured~
