Night, lonely.
Outside the window, there was only the sound of raindrops falling from the sky and hitting the ground.
It's like this era that defeats all players in survival games.
out on a limb!
There is no turning back!
We can only forge ahead!
Li Xiya sat aside, his thoughts echoing in his mind.
A path that neither succeeds nor fails?
Mo Luochen, his choice at the crossroads in life.
He embarked on the completely opposite path to Li Xiya.
Regardless of whether he knows the information about the path of the strong.
But the fact is that he was reincarnated as the Devourer of Worlds!
What did he gain?
What has been lost?
Perhaps what is gained and lost is the same thing - player qualifications!
If players and races participate in a survival game, no matter how hard they try, the outcome is doomed to failure.
So if you abandon your player qualifications and join the evil god's camp, will you be able to survive?
And the answer is obvious!
Because these clues are all in Li Xiya's personal experience before, and they are all in his previous exploration adventures!
The Harpy of Sky Island!
Goblin underground!
Lizard people of the desert!
And...the Naga clan that I have never set foot in, but can know about it through the information on the invitation letter of the marine biome.
These races that switched to the evil god camp survived after the change of eras and the failure of the survival game of the last era.
And the cost?
Became a minion of the evil god!
Turn the gun and aim it at your own people!
perhaps……
Mo Luochen didn't know the information about the path to becoming a strong man!
Because according to what Xu Hongdou said, she is able to obtain less than half of the authority of the small special biome gem mine at this stage, also because of the special nature of inheritance and her own authority.
Others won't have such good luck.
but……
What does it matter if Mo Luochen doesn't know this?
Through the major biomes, there are still races that remain.
Mo Luochen can also draw a conclusion——
Some level of player qualification might be a good thing!
But to a greater extent, for most participants, player qualifications are a cage, a shackles, and a confinement!
All players who participate in the Ke survival game, whether they are from the previous era or this era.
In the final analysis, they are all caged birds!
yes!
It’s just a caged bird!
If not a caged bird.
Why can’t we even decide when a catastrophic event will occur?
Just tired of coping?
And even though he has the scarlet master inheritance, he still has to abide by the rules of the game.
In the eyes of Mantian Evil God, he is just a large caged bird.
Mo Luochen would not have thought of this.
Even... at this step, he thought ahead of himself.
Player qualifications are a hot potato.
So out of despair, while exploring the Corruption Land and being bewitched by the Demon Altar, Mo Luochen half-heartedly gave up on his body as a human being, and also gave up on his qualifications as a survival game player of this era.
Was he the first of this era?
Li Xiya was not sure.
but!
Li Xiya is very sure of one thing -
Mo Luochen will never be the last!
yes!
Not even a player!
He doesn’t even have the qualifications anymore!
If it is destined not to succeed, then why fail?
Survive?
still……
die?
Mo Luochen has made his choice even though the puzzle of the truth is incomplete.
Li Xiya also made his choice when the truth puzzle was even more incomplete.
But now that the clues have become more detailed, Li Xiya does not regret his choice.
Li Xiya didn't know what the World Devourer looked like.
But let him give up everything he has now and become the Brain of Cthulhu, a brain covered with tentacles?
Feel sorry!
He can't do it!
only……
Li Xiya thought of this and looked at Celia worriedly.
she……
She has qualified as a player!
she……
She has fallen into this vortex!
Is it lucky or unlucky?
Li Xiya smiled happily, and immediately told Celia all his guesses, and said:
"I don't know if what I did was right or not!"
Celia raised her eyebrows and said:
"Godfather, you are wrong to think this way. Even if what you do is wrong, so what?"
"I like my life now, and who says we will definitely lose? Who stipulates the ending where we must lose?"
"Even if the future you mentioned, godfather, is true, I believe that godfather will protect my safety and lead me or us to victory!"
"Hahahaha, you are more optimistic than me, that's right, optimism is a good thing!"
Li Xiya nodded and said:
"I just complained and forgot about it. No matter how difficult this life is, I still have to live it."
"Besides, our life is not difficult at all!"
"Yeah! That's right!" Celia nodded hurriedly:
"I think so too."
Li Xiya stood up and said:
"Okay, we've finished eating the noodles. Go to bed!"
"Well, okay, godfather, please take care of yourself! I'm going back to the house first!"
Celia waved her hand and walked up to the bedroom on the second floor.
Li Xiya stopped where he was, his mind wandering away again.
He was facing the problem of Mo Luochen's reincarnation as the Devourer of the World.
So arrogant!
Or……
He underestimates everyone in the world!
The world is not black and white. Gray areas exist in every industry, world, and class.
Mo Luochen's reincarnation as the Devourer of Worlds may not have been decided by a slap on the forehead, but the result of careful consideration.
Even at this moment, Mo Luochen still believed that he was on the right path.
yes!
Although this path is destined to fail, at least it won't fail, right?
But it’s not that easy to be the evil god’s minion, right?
Reincarnation as the Devourer of Worlds is just the first step.
What about the certificate of nomination?
Mo Luochen is a world devourer. If he simply devours the players who are still stranded in the corrupted land, this would be too small a gesture.
Too much noise, too little profit.
Not what a smart person should do!
Seal and imprison the Corruption...
Catastrophic event Goblin invasion...
And information about hidden easter eggs...
Perhaps this disaster is like a snake hiding at the end, and the one who plans to do what the mantis stalks the cicada and the oriole behind is Mo Luochen, who was reincarnated as the devourer of the world.
Despite the large number of regional channels, there is only one, Mo Luochen.
But the problem is that Mo Luochen naturally hopes that the petition must have weight!
And what kind of weight is comparable to my own scarlet master inheritance?
so……
At first glance, his encounter with Mo Luochen seemed like an accident.
But in fact, it is an inevitable event that things have developed so far.
Since Mo Luochen is not a fool, but has a deep mind.
This battle can be fought!
Li Xiya took a deep breath and said in a deep voice.
"Be fully prepared and don't be careless!"
The heavy rain outside the window gradually stopped, and the raindrops smashed to pieces on the ground, finally gathering in the potholes, waiting for the arrival of dawn.
Li Xiya transformed the scarlet armor suit into a raincoat and walked into the courtyard.
However, Li Xiya did not immediately upgrade the Scarlet Mage Tower.
Instead, he came to the mortar.
[Requirements for mortar upgrade: gold ingots x3600, scarlet points x1000, shelter level 6 (upgrade time: 5 hours)]
As a unique and range-based shelter building, the mortar can be upgraded within a limited time, which is obviously a profit-maximizing move.
It's just that... five hours will still waste a lot of time.
Li Xiya didn't think too much about wasting time, invested resources, and immediately decided to upgrade.
"boom!"
With the hammer of gold and construction!
With the blessing of the toolbox and bricklaying knife, the mortar has only 48 minutes left to upgrade.
After the mortar is upgraded, dawn will come.
Li Xiya quickly walked to the Scarlet Mage Tower on the side and upgraded the two Scarlet Mage Towers one after another.
After finishing these things, Li Xiya returned to the living room of the shelter and continued to strengthen his skills.
"laugh!"
As a golden light flashed by, the three strengthening paths of the scarlet crystal strike also appeared.
[Scarlet Crystal Strike Strengthening Way——]
[1: When releasing the skill Scarlet Crystal Strike, the magic value consumption is reduced by 50%]
[2: When releasing the skill Scarlet Crystal Strike, the cooling time is reduced by 50%]
[3: When releasing the skill Scarlet Crystal Strike, the stun duration is increased from 2 seconds to 3 seconds]
Li Xiya looked at the existing data on the second-order Scarlet Crystal Strike and fell into deep thought.
Strengthening method one, the magic value consumption is reduced by 50%. Scarlet Crystal Strike has the effect of area damage, and the magic value consumption is naturally twice as much as that of Scarlet Heavy Strike. Currently, a single release of this skill requires 20 magic points.
This is not a small amount of money when the original base of players currently only has 200 magic points.
This strengthening path can reduce the magic value consumption of Scarlet Crystal Strike from 20 points to 10 points.
But again!
Not counting other bonuses, with the blessing of the third-level scarlet authority, the recovery speed of one's own magic value can reach a fixed recovery rate of 1 point of magic value per second.
It is fully capable of affording the consumption of Scarlet Crystal Strike. After all, although this type of skill is powerful and is a range-based skill, the cooldown time is as long as two minutes.
In two minutes, that is the recovery of 120 magic points. Let alone one skill, it is easy to support the current three skills.
Li Xiya immediately ruled out the first way to strengthen.
As for the second enhancement method, reducing the cooling time is currently the most cost-effective option, and it is also an option that can improve one's combat effectiveness in disguise.
This reinforcement pathway is retained.
Li Xiya lowered his gaze and looked at the third strengthening path.
When the skill Scarlet Crystal Strike is released, the stun duration is increased from 2 seconds to 3 seconds.
Although the Scarlet Crystal Strike skill is very powerful, even when facing a boss-level enemy, as long as the enemy is not immune to the stun debuff, it can still effectively extend the stun effect for 2 seconds.
But reaching this level is enough!
An extra second of stun duration seems to be a 50% increase in duration. How useful is it likely to be? That's not necessarily the case.
To defeat mobs, you don’t need this extra second of stun duration.
When fighting a boss, there is no essential difference between two seconds and three seconds.
Thinking of this, Li Xiya had already decided on the way to strengthen this time.
He raised his head and tapped the strengthening path two with his finger.
As a golden light disappeared again, the skill panel automatically popped up.
[Skill name: Scarlet Crystal Strike]
[Skill attribute: active·permanent mastery]
[Level: Level 3]
[Magic points consumed: 20 points]
[Cooling time: 1 minute]
[Effect: Can be used with any weapon. The player consumes 20 magic points to cast Scarlet Crystal Strike on the enemy. It will cause 200% of the basic damage to the first enemy while ignoring the enemy's defense, and it will be fixed for 2 seconds. The dizziness debuff]
[On this basis, Scarlet Crystal Strike will also perform a chain strike on enemies within a 50-meter radius of the first target. Number of links: 10. Chain damage: 100% of the user's basic attack damage]
[Learning requirements: Sagittarius E]
[Remarks: With the blessing of the evolutionary gold source, the scarlet crystal arrow has evolved, and the scarlet crystal arrow that has obtained the [chain] authority will have a strong range of lethality and is a good choice for players to deal with a large number of enemies]
Li Xiya nodded with satisfaction.
There was no immediate strengthening of the remaining scarlet fission because two gold sources were integrated into the body.
now.
Li Xiya's soul felt an inexplicable feeling of fullness, and he needed to digest it first.
Li Xiya returned to the alchemy table and invested a lot of resources in mass production.
Restorative potion!
Boosting potion!
As long as there are plenty of materials and as long as the curative effect is strong, then we will survive!
After all, Li Xiya’s potion is number one on regional channel 9527!
Blessed by the mutation of the Moon God Potion, these mutated potions have a unique market position.
Li Xiya just made the potion and waited for the Scarlet Mage Tower to be upgraded before continuing the upgrade immediately.
Proceed at the right time and strive to maximize benefits.
Accompanied by a ding.
Li Xiya glanced at the shelter prompt and saw that the mortar had been upgraded.
Li Xiya walked quickly to the courtyard and came to the mortar.
[Name: Gold Mortar]
[Type: Architecture·Unique]
[Level: Level 6]
[Quality: Outstanding]
[Sturdiness value: 12000]
[Defense: 40]
[Occupied area: 4 square meters]
[Height: 4 meters]
[Range: 1000 meters]
[Attack: 120]
[Attack interval: 10 seconds]
[Ammunition type: bomb (after being launched, it will explode after a delay of three seconds, causing 120 points of basic attack damage to all enemies within a 15-meter radius, and comes with a fire debuff: causing 8 points of damage per second, lasting 4 seconds) 】
[Characteristic (1/2): The protection of the tree of life (recovers 1 health point per second)]
[Characteristic (2/2): Heart of Cactus (fixed 15 points of damage back in a single attack)]
[Upgrade requirements: scarlet ore ingot x720, bomb x30, shelter level 7 (upgrade time 8 hours)]
[Remarks: Mortars are unique as shelter defense facilities. Only one mortar can be built in a single shelter]
[Although the number of buildings is limited and the attack speed is slow, mortars can cause huge area attack damage and are rare offensive buildings]
Although the attack duration of the upgraded gold mortar has not been shortened, the attack damage, attack distance, and attack range have been further increased.
It is indeed a unique shelter building, and the increase in various data is truly incredible.
