332 Devour the World (1/2)
Regardless of how unwilling the military god Tannu was, a loss was, after all, a loss. As the former military god, he was incapable of shamelessly not admitting his defeat.
”Very well, then per the agreement, you have a total of 25000 logistic points. You may assign it as you wish.”
With that, the board game on the stone table turned into a pack of complex forms. All the details about logistic point conversion were recorded on it. Wang Lu looked at it and began to carefully calculate the optimal army composition. However, before he finished his calculation, he suddenly saw some details that startled him.
”Wait a minute, how could I even be printed on it?”
Tannu said, ”Of course, don't you want to enter the war also? And won't you consume supplies in the war?”
”... So that's why. Even the commander can't be on the sidelines.”
Tannu said, ”Any commander who doesn't dare to visit the front line is not qualified to be the commander of the Golden King's army.”
”I see.” Wang Lu nodded and didn't make too much fuss about it; since it was the rule set by the others, for now, he would follow it. However, when he saw his point value, he was actually priced at 500 logistic points. Wang Lu frowned. ”Am I that valuable that I am equal to ten golden commanders!”
”The price is based on the strength of a person. Your value is 500 points, it means that you are worth as many as ten golden commanders.”
Wang Lu thought for a moment, thinking that he indeed could probably face off against ten golden commanders. Because if he really ran into ten golden commanders, he would still be invincible with his Non-Phase Sword Defense. However, 500 points seemed a bit more expensive. What if he were replaced by the others?
”If you want to substitute yourself, that's okay. However, only the person who set foot on the battlefield is qualified to pass. The onlookers who stay outside the battlefield inside the safe zone would forever stay in the safe zone.”
”So what you mean is, let alone substitution, the five of us have to go to the battlefield in order to pass? And according to my price, the five of us must at least use 2000 points…” Wang Lu thought for a moment. ”Then what about you? How much logistic points that must be spent for yourself?”
Tannu confidently said, ”Of course it's 0 point. Now I'm just a stone gate who has no combat ability. Even if I personally go into battle, since I lack any fighting power, I don't use any logistic point. If you envy me, then you can beg Golden King to turn you into a stone gate!”
”Forget it, I'll just consider this 2000 point as being eaten by dogs,” Wang Lu said and continued downward in the point conversion list, ready to acquire Aya and other people's exchange prices. However, in just a glance, he was immediately stunned.
”What the, one zero, two zero, three zero… it's 10000 points! What kind of price is this?” Wang Lu flew into a rage. ”Are you an airport security? How come the price is this high? Just a single Knight King alone is priced at 10000 logistic points?”
Tannu was also surprised. ”How could it be that expensive? It seems like your Knight King has a great background, 10000 points are for a legendary level character!”
”Legendary my ass!” Seeing that the other was worth twenty times more than him, Wang Lu was flustered with anger and impolitely criticized, ”She can't even complete a shredded pork with garlic sauce! If I, as a team leader, am worth 500 points, then she should be just 300 points!”
Aya's face had turned green from anger. ”So is this what you really think of me?”
Tannu explained, ”The price of the logistic points is mainly based on the peak strength. Although this woman is in poor condition, in her peak, she should be worth as much as a legendary character.”
Wang Lu very unhappily humphed and tentatively accepted this explanation.
Wang Lu then continued to look at the list, only to flare up once again. ”Damn, did Golden King conquer your land because you made a dubious land speculation? I can accept that you priced my Knight King as 10000 points, but now, you even priced Liu Li as 10000 points too? Is she worth a legendary level treatment? Or is it because she is quite close to Aya that her price rises as well?”
Tannu himself was surprised by this. ”She's also 10000 points? I don't understand either, her power is only advance middle-order, so her points should be at most one to two thousand… Is it because of another reason?”
”What is it?”
”This logistic points essentially calculate the logistic consumption. Although for the trial's sake, it heavily referenced to a unit's fighting strength, but logistic consumption is also an important factor in determining the price. Perhaps… the reason why this girl has such a high logistic points is that her logistic consumption is very high?”
Wang Lu was stunned, because Tannu's words were reasonable! Although Liu Li's cultivation time was still low, far from reaching her potential, based on strength alone, she was far from 10000 logistic points worth. However, her eating capacity...
”Damn it, two women had already cost 20000 points, while I am just 500 points… Little Bai is 600, and the stupid dog is 2400? Do all of you want to rebel? Every one of you is extremely expensive! There are only 1500 points left! At most, I can only buy some hard labors! Wait a minute, those who challenged this before us, weren't they given the same pricing standard? You said they only have 5000 points, right?”
Tannu was somewhat embarrassed. ”The price calculation is determined by the spell left by Golden King. If you're not convinced, you can talk to Golden King yourself.”
”Talk your ass! Did those challengers use this pricing standard too? Weren't their total score only 5000 points?”
Tannu said, ”It's the same standard as you guys. Among them, the most valuable is a legendary level that worth 8000 points. Therefore, he was unable to participate. It was someone else who brought in and led the large army.”
Wang Lu asked, ”But since people who don't enter the battlefield can't pass the test, could it be that after this they…”
