Chapter 2755 (1/2)
”Shit, why so much?”
Although the female devil's nest is very easy to find, the location is just above the nest of the big earthworm, but the number of female demons is a bit frightening.
According to Yamamoto 55's introduction before, these cursed mutant female demons should be very high-level demons, and the difficulty of obtaining them is much lower than that of ordinary ones. It can be said that they are super valuable super resources with very low collection difficulty.
Because we know that this is a very valuable resource, we instinctively think that the number of resources must be very low, that is, the number of female demons must be very small. After all, the problem of balance should be considered in the game, so it is impossible to have super high-value, super easy to get, and a very large number of resources, because the idea of giving benefits runs counter to the concept of the game itself. As a financial bomb, the most important ability of ”zero” is to attract money. Therefore, if you give a lot of resources that are easy to obtain, you will reduce your ability to attract money. Because resources are a form of money. If you let players obtain a large number of them, it means that the game operators are paying back to the players. It is also because of this reason, so the game is unlikely to appear in the same kind of resources, even if there are, it is very small.
It is because of the above conjecture that we think the number of female demons will not be large. After all, we have already seen the combat effectiveness. Although it's not bad, but for us top players, these should be considered very ordinary creatures. Yes, the high demons before being cursed are really powerful characters. For example, Ling and Linglong are both high demons around me. Among them, Ling is the standard branch of the great devil, which is the orthodox devil among the demons, while Linglong is the evil spirit, which can be regarded as a minority, but also belongs to the higher demons.
Linglong didn't fight a lot because she only joined my big army for a short time. But Ling's record was outstanding. It can be seen that the fighting capacity of high demons is very good. Although Ling belongs to a special individual, even among the higher demons, it is also a relatively rare type, but after all, the general higher demons are not worse, so these demons are still relatively powerful creatures. However, although these female demons are all high demons, they are all cursed. Although they were very strong before, the problem is that the curse made them lose their intelligence as demons, and they all became low-level creatures. Although their physical qualities are still preserved, the demons are proud of not only their physique, but also their magic. So these damned demons aren't really powerful creatures now, but once they are converted back to their original form by the iron heart blood dropping ritual, their combat effectiveness will soar. That is to say, the difficulty of capturing these female demons is far lower than the value after capture. After all, after all, their combat effectiveness will be significantly improved after being captured, which is equivalent to the appreciation of resources in hand for no reason.
Because of this reason, we think that the female devil belongs to an efficient resource with less input and more output, and the resources given in the game are generally extremely rare in quantity, which will not let you take advantage of it in vain.
However, when we see the number of female demons here, we suddenly realize that our thinking has entered a complete misunderstanding.
At first, we thought that these female demons themselves were not very effective, but after they were captured, they could become very powerful creatures through the ceremony of lifting the curse. In this way, their natural value became very considerable. That's why we think the number of female demons must be very small. But, in fact, the system is using another way to balance this situation, and this method is called - quantity accumulation.
Suppose that a man eating ant is a very precious resource, and collecting a man eating ant can sell for hundreds of dollars. Then, considering the value of a man eating ant at 100, and comparing the difficulty of catching a man eating ant, we can draw a conclusion that catching a man eating ant is a very simple and fast way to make money, because no matter how fierce the ant is, it is just an ant, and one or two cannibals can not pose any threat to human beings. So, at first glance, it looks like catching a cannibal is a low-risk, high reward thing. However, in fact, it is impossible for the ants to move out one by two, and their units of action are at least tens of thousands as their basic units.
Because in this case, when you need to catch a man eating ant, you will first encounter tens of thousands of them, and then they will certainly not wait for you to catch them one by one. When you go to catch them, they will swarm on you and attack you. To save your life, all you can do is kill the attacking ants or run away. The result of escaping is that you can't get a single cannibal, and killing the one that attacks you takes a lot of risk, and obviously the number has dropped to a very low level after the remaining predators are not enough to pose a threat to you. That is to say, although there are a large number of cannibals and each one is easy to catch, once they gather in groups, it will become very dangerous to catch any one of them. Not only do you have to invest a lot of money, but you have to risk your life to fight. What's more, you are doomed to not catch many of them because most of them are killed in the battle.This is the so-called difficulty problem caused by the accumulation of quantities.
These damned demons are obviously more troublesome creatures than the cannibals, and their combat effectiveness is much stronger than that of the cannibals. And the numbers are just as terrifying. Just for a simple observation here, there are hundreds of them hanging on the wall of the cave nearby, and how much of the hole in the back is still unknown.
Such a number of female demons gather together. If we attack them, we will certainly disturb all female demons. In the end, we can only kill a large number of female demons in order to protect ourselves. Finally, when the remaining female demons are not enough to threaten our life safety, we can have free time to catch them. At this time, the female demons must have died almost. in other words. In this process, the number of female demons we can obtain is extremely limited, but the threat we need to face is very huge.
After we want to understand all this, even if we fully understand, this female devil is absolutely not a cheap high-quality resource. Just want to do, this is a pile of bone hard to gnaw. The investment is large and the return is small. Moreover, unless you intend to keep one of them still, you must do it to the end as long as you intend to start. Otherwise, the loss will be even greater. As long as you can not completely control the number of them in a safe range, you can't catch any female demons. In other words, the previous battle is equivalent to doing white work.
”Boss, what are we going to do now?” Looking at the front of that large number of female demons, gold coin some embarrassed asked.
I thought about it and looked at Yamamoto 55 and asked, ”does the scroll you see say how to catch this female devil?”
Yamamoto 55 shook his head and said, ”the scroll only mentions that these female demons are creatures that can be transformed, and there is no specific capture method. The original task of that scroll is to let us collect the petrified heart.”
”But won't the heart of collecting iron and stone cause their counterattack?” I asked, looking at the devil woman over there.
Yamamoto said, ”it's not that complicated. What you need to do to get the heart of iron and stone is to catch some common bugs here, and then give them simple training. When the training is finished, you can ask them to help move the iron heart out
”Training bugs?” Christina asked curiously, ”how do you train? Make it clear. ”
”It's a very common small creature here. It's about the size of a rabbit, and its intelligence is quite high. These insects are very many here, and their own blood has a very pungent smell, so whether those female demons or those giant earthworms will never touch this insect. In addition, the intelligence level of these insects is relatively high. All you have to do is grab them, feed them, and then, just like training puppies, pick up the heart-shaped stones and give them something to eat in exchange. After that, the bugs will understand this and steal their hearts from the female devil's nest over there. Although those hearts are the hearts of female demons, they are excluded from the body after being petrified, which has no significance for them. Therefore, those female demons will not take care of these hearts at all. Even if they are stolen, they will not care, and will not touch the insects at all. So, as long as we don't show up, we can steal the hearts of those female demons by relying on these insects
”That sounds like a good idea, but is this bug really so good at training?” ”There's no need for a special trainer to train here,” Christina asked
I didn't expect Yamamoto 55 actually nodded and said, ”sister Christina is right, but we don't have a president? The world's first trainer is here. What are we worried about? The team I followed before was just a half baked animal trainer who could handle it. I don't believe that the president himself can't make it. ”
As Yamamoto 55 said, we all think it's reasonable. After all, I'm the first player in the world, and my main occupation is animal trainer. So if even ordinary animal trainers can handle it, I'm sure I can. However, Yamamoto 55 saw that the method was originally designed to get those hearts, but now we have to bring them back together with those female demons, which has become a bit complicated.
”In that case, I don't think so.” ”We'd better use the bugs to get the heart out of the nest, and then we'd better use the antidote method to get the female demons out of the nest one by one, so that's almost OK?” Christina suggested
It has to be said that Christina's method is quite good. At least we have a simple idea here, and we think it is feasible. Before there is a better method, we can only make do with it.
Since Yamamoto 55 is to be used, the first step is to find the worms. Fortunately, these insects are said to be more than those earthworms, so it is easy to catch them.
In fact, the number of these insects is quite a lot, because we are still looking for a large group behind us.
These creatures are more like crabs or lobsters without tails than insects. Their bodies are covered with crab like crustaceans, with a pair of huge signatures in front of them and a scorpion like tail pin behind them. This strange shape looks very ferocious, but according to Yamamoto 55, it is actually a kind of scavenger, and it has no harm. Unless you attack it actively, it will not pose any threat to you even if you climb over your feet.At first, we were still confused about the reason why these creatures gathered together, but we soon found out the reason, because we found that gold coins were eating snacks all the way.
Although these insects are scavengers, they won't mind if there are fresh things, so the dregs dropped from the gold coins all the way become the food for these small things. Moreover, because they are timid, they dare not come up and can only follow us to pick up and eat. As a result, when we realize that, there are already a large group of insects behind them.
Now that the bug has come to the door, the first step is omitted and the training can be started directly. Of course, before we started, we still found a place far away from the nest as far as possible. After all, this is the door of other people's house. There are a lot of female demons going in and out. In case of being blocked, we will be in trouble.
The first step in training these bugs is to establish a friendly relationship. This is relatively simple. I can sprinkle some food directly. In addition, I am a trainer. My charm value is naturally high. So it helps to establish a good relationship. In just a few minutes, I can run back and forth among these insects without disturbing them.
When the worms get used to it, the rest is simply a conditioned reflex that allows them to trade heart-shaped stones for food. This process needs to be demonstrated first, so I directly control one of these insects with a temporary manipulation skill of the animal trainer, and then let it lift a stone about the size of a heart. Then I took a stone and gave it a piece of food. The simplest exchange was completed.
As Yamamoto said, the intelligence of these insects is very high. Although they can't think like human beings, they have a strong ability to sum up experience. I didn't teach once, and immediately there was a bug reaction. I began to wander around. Then I found a stone about the same size and brought it here. Seeing this leader, I immediately took out a piece of food to replace the stone. Then the insect was excited to eat the food and ran out. Obviously, I completely understood the principle that stone can be used for food.
I have a thought to understand, the rest of the insects are also reflected, and then began to look for stones to send to me. However, what we want to collect is not stone, but the kind of petrified heart, so I began to classify the stones they found. If the shape difference is too big or the volume difference is too big, we don't give food, and then let them see the correct size and shape of the stone. Although I can't tell them in words that this is the shape of the heart, the intelligence of these insects determines that they have a very strong logical analysis ability. After summing up, they quickly realized that I had a requirement for the size and shape of stones, not all stones could be exchanged for food. So, the stones we finally got became more and more reliable. Some insects even picked out stones that were very close to the shape of the heart.
Although a lot of food was wasted in the training process, what they ate was only the lowest level food, which was the lowest level compressed dry food sold in the system store. Generally, players would not bring this kind of food unless they were really short of money. After all, the taste was very ordinary, and because there was taste in ”zero”, it was big Home will generally consider buying some delicious things, even if they know it is fake, but the taste in your mouth is really felt. So, in addition to not being able to replenish nutrients, the food in these games is actually similar to that of real life creatures. Moreover, for those beauties who want to keep fit, this kind of food which can eat a lot and doesn't produce any Caroli's food is simply too perfect. Of course, the food in reality still needs to be eaten. After all, eating in the game, the body in reality will not get energy supplement along with it.
We now use these dry food is the cheapest compressed video in the game, considering the taste is really ordinary, so the price is super cheap. It took more than three hours to train these insects. Finally, the food thrown out was less than ten crystal coins. It was really a drizzle.
After three hours of training, we began to consciously move towards the direction of the nest over there, and the search range of those insects moved along with it. Soon we moved to the outer area of the nest over there, so that the scope of the insects collecting stones could cover the positions of the holes.
In fact, if the female demons over there have even a trace of normal intelligence, our method will not work at all, because although we hide more tightly, but those insects are constantly coming and going around us, which means that we point out where we are, but the thinking of these female demons has degenerated to combat instinct and hunting books Yes, so even if it is obvious that they see this kind of strange situation, they are completely blind to it. After all, those insects are neither food nor threat to them. On the contrary, they can help to clean up some leftovers in the cave and reduce the smell of mildew. Therefore, the behavior of these insects is completely ignored in the past. Even if their behavior is obviously abnormal, no female devil comes to take a look at it.
Although Yamamoto 55's method has been basically completed, when we can get those hearts depends on luck, because we can't really command these insects. Of course, I can remote control these insects, but there are two problems. The first problem is that I can only remotely control three insects at one time. After all, I have too many demons. This skill is useless for me, so there is no special training, so the skill level is still very low. However, even at full level, this skill can only control 100 units at the same time. So the number of insects I can control is very small. Of course, this is not the main problem. The real main problem is that this kind of control is not a macro control like directing a mob fight, but a direct control like operating a remote-controlled car.Demons all have their own thinking. You just tell them your intention and how to do it. They will decide by themselves. Of course, if you specify how to accomplish it, they will follow suit. However, if you don't specify, they will try their best. At the same time, if it is some far away, or that kind of roundabout place, the spirit contact ability between the demon pet and the master can play a role. After sensory sharing, the master and the pet can see each other's things and hear each other's sounds. In any case, as long as the other party's senses capture the signal, the other party can sense it.
This shared sensory ability between the master and the pet is like installing synchronous video transmission on the remote control robot, so that the commander sitting in front of the monitor can adjust the command at any time, so that the remote control robot can better complete the task.
But it doesn't work when you use manipulation to control other creatures. These controlled creatures are only temporary controls. You can't share your vision with them. That is to say, once the controlled creatures are out of your sight, it's no use even if you can manipulate the creatures, because you don't know how to operate them correctly. As for direct macro instructions. This doesn't work, because the player directly occupies the other side's nerve center to give instructions instead of the opponent's brain, and the opponent has no executive ability at all. Even in the process of being controlled, the target organism loses its senses completely, that is, it can't see or hear. The other party's action completely depends on the remote control of this person with their own eyes to observe, otherwise it will fall into a state of complete loss of direction.
Because of the disadvantages of this control method, I can't directly control the insects to climb into the female devil's nest over there. Because the position there is too high and deep, I can't get in at all and naturally I can't see the situation inside. Once the bug gets in, I lose control. Even if it doesn't disconnect the signal, I don't know how to control it. As for controlling the insects before releasing them This method is also useless, because after the insects are controlled, there will be fear and hatred, which is similar to normal people who are forced to do this and that by putting a dog chain around their neck for no reason. When you are tied, you may be temporarily obedient because you know that you have no resistance. But once you are free, can you continue to talk and laugh at each other as if nothing happened? Although these insects are not as complex as human beings, they are not low in intelligence. Once you control them, they will form a hatred relationship with them. Even if they know that the hearts can exchange food, they will not cooperate with you. I had a simple operation in order to demonstrate the situation of exchanging stones for food, but it was the control of seven or eight seconds that made the insect on guard against me, and it took a long time to completely give up the alert. It's still because I'm very attractive. If you want to change your opinion, the bug will just turn around and run away.
