But if the player is unwilling to purchase a monthly card, then if he wants to obtain a loan from the Lord God, he will have to provide collateral to obtain a loan with a higher interest rate.
So what exactly is this collateral? Is there anything that the main god can collect that will make players feel very painful? Those are the points players use to evolve.
Players who want to quickly obtain evolution through loans must use their existing evolution points as collateral. Basically, the higher the loan amount, the more mortgage evolution points are required.
In this way, interest collection is also very simple. It is still deducted from the evolution points. The evolution points do not have to be integers, they can be decimals.
So how to determine the evolutionary point in the decimal state? This is still related to whether you hold a monthly card. Krypton gold players with monthly cards always round up, and ordinary players without monthly cards always round down.
But for some players, due to some reasons, they cannot even provide evolution points as collateral. What should they do at this time?
It doesn't matter if the Lord God kindly expresses this. The evolution point can be deducted as a negative number. In short, I will not suffer any loss.
Therefore, in subsequent "Epic of Life" games, we often see some unlucky players whose number of original biomes they control is actually less than 20.
These are the unlucky people who tried to make a quick leap through loans, but failed to repay the loans due to bad luck, and in the end, their evolution points were reversed.
Some players were deducted too many evolution points, and in the end they were all numb, so they simply gave up and started over, and those owed evolution points would naturally be wiped out.
In order to prevent this situation from happening too frequently, in subsequent updates of "Epic of Life", the Lord God thoughtfully introduced a mechanism called "Bankruptcy Protection Application" for players.
If players feel that in their situation, it is destined to be impossible to exchange for a loan with compound interest, they can apply for bankruptcy protection from the Lord God. They only need to repay the principal in the future, and there is no need to pay attention to the increasingly huge interest.
Of course, not everyone can apply for this "bankruptcy protection application". Noble monthly card players can apply for free, while ordinary players who have not recharged money can only spend a sum of money to purchase.
There is no doubt that this operation of the Lord God comes from Zhong Shanze's past experience in the Lord God's space. The pain he has experienced always has to be spread to more people, so that he can gain a balance of mentality.
Although there seems to be so much unequal treatment between the ordinary player and the monthly card player, these differences in treatment are not excessive.
After all, the premise of all this is based on the fact that the player's operation level is poor, and only the benefits provided by the monthly card are needed to help.
If a player's operating skills are good enough, they don't need the benefits provided by the monthly card at all, and they can live a comfortable life through loans.
However, these are the benefits that normal players can have. Zhao Ling, a group of invitees who sneaked in, does not have any "benefits" such as loans.
Therefore, he did not complete the evolution immediately, but exited the evolution interface honestly, and only started to choose his own evolution points after he accumulated more evolution points.
The evolution mechanism in "The Epic of Life" is also worth mentioning. It does not mean that external creatures can evolve instantly by clicking on the evolution interface.
After completing the preparations for evolution on the evolution interface, only a few external creatures will complete evolution. The proportion of such creatures that evolve instantly is 10%-15% for players without a monthly card, and 15%-20% for players with a monthly card. %.
If players want to complete the upgrading of the entire group, they must continue to multiply and divide so that new creatures can replace the old ones.
Completing this kind of replacement is not something that can be accomplished overnight. For some players who evolve quickly, several generations of creatures may even be in the community at the same time.
This is why, as mentioned before, some players will gather together and launch an attack when the target has just left the evolved state.
Because the other party has indeed completed evolution, but this evolution has not yet spread to every creature in the community. It can be said that this is the time when the other party is most vulnerable.
After Zhao Ling completed the second group division, he decided to truly carry out the first evolution. The direction he chose was to strengthen his group's tolerance to osmotic pressure.
What is osmotic pressure tolerance? Because it is now located under deep seawater, both the distance from the sea level and the concentration of seawater salt in the area will lead to different osmotic pressures in different areas.
For modern organisms with a high level of evolution, this small difference in osmotic pressure can be ignored directly, but for primitive organisms in this era, every small change in osmotic pressure simply means a natural chasm.
This is why in this era, primitive creatures that have no mouthparts and are difficult to eat each other, a very important way of fighting is pushing. This is the reason why the osmotic pressure of different seawater layers is different.
Zhao Ling let his primitive creatures evolve stronger tolerance to differences in osmotic pressure, so that he could gain stronger combat effectiveness during the pushing process.
After all, when the creatures on both sides push each other, a large amount of their own energy will be consumed. When the opponent's energy is insufficient, it is the time for Zhao Ling to fight back.
However, this osmotic pressure exchange also has two directions. You can choose to be more adaptable to the upper osmotic pressure or to be more adaptable to the lower layer. Generally speaking, players will purchase the ability to adapt to the upper osmotic pressure in order to be able to surface in the future.
However, in order to be able to catch the enemy by surprise during battle, some players will do the opposite and choose to adapt to the lower osmotic pressure.
However, not all players who redeem themselves to adapt to the lower osmotic pressure want to catch their opponents by surprise. They simply don't like fighting.
But in short, when fighting such players, you cannot push them in a certain fixed direction without thinking. Instead, you must observe the opponent's state before the battle to determine whether they have evolved corresponding osmotic pressure adaptations.
Specifically speaking, the blurrier the appearance is, the lower the sea level is, and the clearer the appearance is, the closer the sea level is to the upper level. After accurate judgment, you can push in the corresponding direction, so as to achieve twice the result with half the effort. .
It also took Zhao Ling a certain amount of time to gradually master this unique combat technique, and he was almost invincible when facing those AI enemies.
But Zhong Shanze obviously would not be so kind, and specially gave them a casual game trip. As Zhao Ling and the other invitees completed their first evolution, their real purpose of entering this world also emerged.
