Doomsday Super Merchant

Chapter 231 New Mode after Level 12

In addition to the huge amount of materials, the biggest gain is naturally the crystallization.

There are many high-level zombies of all kinds in the city. Level 7 and 8 zombies also succumbed to human gunfire and could only be shot. As the zombies in the city were cleared, workers collecting crystals were

After half a month of processing, the excavation of millions of zombies outside the city was finally completed, and the severely decomposed corpses were burned under gasoline.

If it crystallizes in the apocalypse, it will definitely be a real wealth.

Zhou Yuanqiang, who controls the entire general warehouse of the Chamber of Commerce, certainly knows how many crystals he has in his hands. The previous crystals of the Administration were upgraded to the level of a ring by himself and were completely consumed. However, when zombies attacked the wasteland settlement, they were replenished.

As many as 600,000 crystals of various grades were obtained, and the subsequent trade in Tianzhou Plain brought more than 400,000 crystals of different grades.

This in itself is already a huge amount of crystallized wealth, but compared with the harvest from the capture of Qingyuan City, the harvest of more than 1.3 million fruits is more than the sum of all previous efforts. As long as you stand

In the crystal warehouse, a whole warehouse of crystals became colorful and flashed with various colors when the lights were on.

I am afraid that in addition to the ninth-level crystals and the seven-color crystals, Zhou Yuanqiang has on hand even the very rare level 7 and 8 crystals, which are already displayed on the storage shelves of the crystal warehouse.

No matter who it is, they will definitely become crazy after knowing about this crystallized wealth, because with the purchasing power of crystallization in the apocalypse, you don’t have to doubt that its value is definitely beyond your imagination. But in Zhou Yuanqiang’s view, the value

It is very high, but for the upgrade needs of the ring...it seems that such a huge crystallization is just a drop in the bucket.

Currently, Zhou Yuanqiang's ring level is eleven, and according to the rule that a skill appears every three levels, a new skill will appear at level twelve.

Judging from the first three skills, the skills produced by the ring are very practical.

Fatal Strike: Increase neurological ability by 50%, achieving more precise shooting and hitting. The increase increases with the level, increasing by 5% at each level.

A very good skill, at least in Zhou Yuanqiang's opinion, it allows him to have a higher hit rate with firearms. The fatal strike can be upgraded to level ten, and the maximum increase in nerve ability is 75%. However, there is too little crystallization in the early stage.

, Fatal Strike is still at the first level now.

Gravity: Can release a five-fold gravity field with a center point diameter of fifteen meters. The gravity multiplier increases with the level, and the gravity doubles at each level.

You don’t need to think about this skill, it is absolutely heaven-defying. Think about it, in this gravity field, the user is not affected, and you need to bear five times the gravity, unless your own ability is five times stronger than the user.

Six times, you will not be affected by the gravity field. But Zhou Yuanqiang's ability is already 33 times that of ordinary people. I am afraid that no one five times stronger than him has yet appeared in this world, right? Within the scope of this gravity technique

Here, no matter how fast the zombies are, they can only suffer in the hands of Zhou Yuanqiang.

The third skill is even more abnormal. This is permanent enhancement. Its function is to permanently strengthen DNA enhancement. You can use the enhanced DNA ability at any time, instead of worrying about the impact of DNA enhancement as before.

Suddenly it got stuck.

The first three skills, no matter which one they are, are rare for Zhou Yuanqiang.

It is precisely because of the outstanding performance of the three skills that one is stronger than the other, which makes Zhou Yuanqiang want to know what kind of skills will appear if the ring is upgraded to level 12? He is very much looking forward to this.

It's a pity that when the ring was upgraded to level 11, almost all the crystals were sucked out, which directly made the entire chamber of commerce poor. If it weren't for Zhou Yuanqiang's ability to carry time and space, which allowed the chamber of commerce to have food and materials to operate, I really don't know.

How can the Chamber of Commerce, which has no money at all, maintain the living expenses of hundreds of thousands of people when it first took over?

The matter of upgrading the ring level has been delayed because of this.

When zombies attacked later, although he had harvested huge crystals, Zhou Yuanqiang sadly discovered that raising the eleventh level to the twelfth level was like a watershed. The required crystal energy suddenly became even larger, even if he had several

Even with 100,000 crystals, there is no way to upgrade it to level 12.

This discovery certainly made Zhou Yuanqiang crazy. In order to earn more crystals, of course he launched a trade offensive on Tianzhou Plain.

The profits from clothes were indeed astonishingly high. The hundreds of thousands of crystals made Zhou Yuanqiang smile. It was this huge amount of crystals, plus the previous harvest, that finally met the need for ring upgrades. At that time, Zhou Yuanqiang almost

I have the urge to extend my ring to the twelfth level.

However, things tend to be long-lasting. The changes in Qingyuan City forced him to put all his efforts into improving the combat capabilities of the Chamber of Commerce. For a month, he ran around, working as a coolie in the middle of the night every day, and brought countless supplies to the wasteland.

The purpose of establishing a settlement is to be able to maintain this career in the last days.

Fortunately, it was successful. The Chamber of Commerce with a large number of fighter planes was not comparable to the zombies. At least after three days of hard fighting, the city was still recovered.

A series of events after the recapture made Zhou Yuanqiang spin like a top again. With huge supplies, Zhou Yuanqiang did not need to work hard to carry supplies, but the stalls in the entire city were really too big, far from

Comparable to a settlement, there are so many things that need to be dealt with by him. Almost every department will have a headache. In the end, it is Zhou Yuanqiang who finalizes it.

Finally, now everything is managed and handled by various departments. While Zhou Yuanqiang was relieved, he saw such a huge crystal storage. Naturally, his silent heart became active again. This promoted the ring to the 12th level.

The willingness has naturally become stronger.

The new general warehouse in Qingyuan City occupies a very large area. It is located in the Southern District, which was the least damaged. It is connected to the Western District where you decide to live. It is composed of the South 27th District, which is subdivided by the Southern District.

The guards here are naturally strict, and the dedicated Zheng Daguang naturally becomes more powerful with the expansion of the general warehouse. Now he is the person in charge of a thousand soldiers in the entire general warehouse, arranging everything in the general warehouse.

This matter is deeply understood by Chairman Zhou Yuanqiang. In ancient terms, this person is the emperor's closest minister and the most caring confidant.

The crystal warehouse is located in the main warehouse. Next to the crystal warehouse is the gold warehouse.

The storage space of Zhou Yuanqiang's level 11 ring is currently 2048 cubic meters, which is very large. However, the storage space contains many things that Zhou Yuanqiang needs, such as tools for escape, weapons, food and water for survival, tents,

Quilts, clothes, etc. These already take up hundreds of cubic meters of space.

The volume of gold will not be very large, but the problem is that Zhou Yuanqiang cannot always put it in the storage space. When carrying supplies, he takes it out first, waits until the supplies are transferred, and puts it back into the storage space. In this way,

It's too troublesome. Anyway, it's stored in the main warehouse, and it's heavily guarded. There's no need to worry about anyone in the settlement having the ability to break in and remove the gold or something.

As for the crystals, the quantity was too huge. Zhou Yuanqiang only selected the crystals of level six and above and put them in the storage space. The other crystals of levels one to five were all piled in the crystal warehouse.

Now that he has decided to upgrade the ring to level 12, Zhou Yuanqiang naturally has to come to the crystal warehouse.

The dutiful Zheng Daguang came to greet him with more than a dozen soldiers. Of course, Zhou Yuanqiang liked the loyal Zheng Daguang very much. He took out a pack of high-end cigarettes specially produced by the Wasteland Cigarette Factory for ministers from his pocket and put it on Zheng Daguang's chest.

Hou patted his shoulder with his hand and said, "Da Guang, I've really worked hard on you."

Zheng Daguang's biggest pleasure is to take a puff. Especially for these high-end cigarettes, the cigarette factory produces only a small quantity, and most of the ministers of the chamber of commerce are old smokers. They are precious to death. People like the following, if they want to smoke, don't use it.

He was counting on it. So Zhou Yuanqiang would bring him a package almost every time he came to the warehouse, which naturally made Zheng Daguang very grateful.

He took the cigarette unceremoniously, grinned, smelled it, and said, "President, aren't you holding my mouth in your mouth? How can you let me endure the taste of other cigarettes in the future?"

Zhou Yuanqiang smiled and kicked Zheng Daguang's butt, and scolded: "Don't be so good at taking advantage of it. I specially left this cigarette for you, so don't be dissatisfied." Zheng Daguang just giggled and quickly received the cigarette in his pocket.

In his pocket, he smiled honestly: "President, this entire cigarette factory is the capital you started with. How much you want is not yours to say?"

Zhou Yuanqiang was startled, and then laughed, "Hey Zheng Daguang, when did you become dishonest? That's right. I'll go to the cigarette factory another day and ask them to increase the production of these cigarettes and equip them for you.

How about welfare qualifications? You should be satisfied now, right? Look at your prospects, how many times have you mentioned this matter? "

Zheng Daguang just kept smiling and said: "This kind of love is good, this kind of love is good."

Zhou Yuanqiang arrived in front of the crystal warehouse. He originally raised his legs to go in, but suddenly remembered something, stopped again, looked at Zheng Daguang who was following behind him, and asked gossiping: "I heard that your boy is having a wife?"

Zheng Daguang nodded and said: "There is such a thing, but it's not a mother-in-law. She has not agreed to marry a big boss like me. It's just a way to meet each other when I have time. This is not a big deal.

President, you don’t have to worry."

"What do I worry about?" Zhou Yuanqiang smiled and said: "I'm just curious, well, if you have time another day, bring it to my office and see me." After saying that, he entered the crystallization with a smile.

Naturally, Zheng Daguang and the others had no right to enter the warehouse, so they all stood guard in front of the closed door of the crystallization warehouse.

The crystal warehouse is nothing more than Zhou Yuanqiang’s name for the warehouse where crystals are stored. The real name of the warehouse should be the number nine, Warehouse No. 9.

The main warehouse has an independent generator set, so with sufficient power supply, it can ensure that the perimeter of each warehouse is covered with lights. As day and night, all the lights are turned on, illuminating the perimeter of the warehouse like a winter sun.

It's as white as snow, not to mention people, even flies flying by can make a shadow, so you don't have to worry about anyone sneaking into the warehouse.

After Zhou Yuanqiang entered the crystal warehouse, it was impossible to directly see the stacked crystals inside the structure. Instead, after passing through several password doors, he could officially enter the center of the warehouse, where the crystals were placed.

place.

As soon as the lights are turned on, the dreamlike luster flickers everywhere, as if you have entered a dreamy fairy tale world.

The appearance of crystals is somewhat similar to diamonds, and they come in red, yellow, white, black, orange, green and other colors. You can imagine what nearly two million diamonds of different colors will look like when they are placed in front of you under the light.

What does it look like? This kind of scene is beyond anyone’s imagination. After all, in reality, even in a country rich in diamonds, such a scene cannot happen.

Sometimes Zhou Yuanqiang really doubts whether these crystals are a type of diamond.

In modern times, a five-carat diamond would cost more than one or two million. These crystals vary in size, ranging from two to three carats in small ones, to more than ten carats in large ones, or nearly two million. How much wealth is that?

Being as rich as any country will no longer be a myth. Even an ordinary big country will not be richer than you.

But the problem is, these are indeed not diamonds. Just pick up one of them and you can see the energy flowing inside it with the naked eye.

"Tsk, tsk, it's so perfect." Zhou Yuanyo slid his hands over the crystals on the metal frame, full of admiration for the crystals. If you hadn't seen the disgusting look when you took it out, you would never be able to see such a pure crystal.

As you can imagine, it actually came from the head of a zombie.

Looking at these crystals, Zhou Yuanqiang unconsciously thought with some malice: "If it were modern times, even the most chaste woman would become a bohemian and passionate woman under the influence of these dreamy crystals, wouldn't she? It's not just who she wants to chase, but whoever she is.

Get it immediately? But it's a pity, these crystals..."

Zhou Yuanqiang stretched out his hand in the air, and the crystals on the shelves disappeared out of thin air. After a while, the dazzling light in the warehouse disappeared and turned into a dull light again.

Zhou Yuanqiang was not sure how many crystals were needed to upgrade the ring to level 12, so he collected all the crystals in the crystal warehouse into the storage space. Anyway, when the time comes to suck it, the ring will only absorb enough energy to upgrade, so he thought

To advance to the thirteenth level, Zhou Yuanqiang needs to use his mind to activate it, and then it will absorb it again. There is no need to worry about the crystals being wasted.

"Fortunately, everything in the Chamber of Commerce belongs to me. Otherwise, how long will it take to earn such a huge crystallization?"

Zhou Yuanqiang just had a slight headache. He took a deep breath and gave the command with his mind: "Absorb the crystal..."

In the next second, more than half of the crystals in the storage space were lost. On the ring's information panel, the originally gray experience bar turned orange again. The 100% number made Zhou Yuanqiang feel happy without hesitation.

He said: "Confirm that the ring level has been improved..."

As soon as he finished speaking with his mind, the experience panel on the ring's information panel suddenly dimmed again, and the experience number changed to 0%.

Zhou Yuanqiang's heart suddenly accelerated as the experience bar dimmed. The feeling brought about by the ring's improvement made him feel a little elated. It's just that this time there was no feeling like the permanent strengthening.

I felt a pin-sharp feeling, very comfortable, my head felt empty, and my whole person became extremely calm.

As this comfortable feeling slowly subsided, Zhou Yuanqiang's consciousness entered the information panel of the ring, but a window suddenly popped up on the information panel, and a paragraph of text slowly appeared on the information panel:

"Do you feel that upgrading is becoming more and more difficult? Do you feel that the crystals obtained cannot meet your needs? Level 12 will be a new world, and you will find that you are just an entry-level user now.

The ring's evaluation of you is just that of a newly qualified user. You must move towards becoming an outstanding user, a perfect user, and a heroic user..."

Seeing this paragraph, Zhou Yuanqiang was completely speechless. What the hell is this? However, he seemed to realize that the ring must have changed, and he continued to read.

Just as Zhou Yuanqiang imagined, to be precise, the ring split into another upgrade mode.

Ring upgrade mode 1: Obtain crystals and use the energy of the crystals to make the ring meet the upgrade requirements.

Ring upgrade mode 2: Complete the task and use the randomly appeared tasks in the ring. After completion, obtain the energy required for ring upgrade. Any ring upgrade experience will be obtained according to the difficulty and completion evaluation.

At the end of this ring upgrade mode 2, there is a small line of text: Once the task is extracted, there will be a time limit. It cannot be completed within the limited time. The degree of task failure will be judged based on the degree of completion, and a reward will be given.

Different failure penalties for taskers.

If the first line of words made Zhou Yuanqiang happy, then the following line of small words was like an ice hole, exuding a trembling chill.

Zhou Yuanqiang looked at it carefully several times, shaking his head and muttering to himself: "What the hell does this mean? What is the function of this ring?" Yes, Zhou Yuanqiang was a little confused.

Well, the second upgrade mode is basically the same mode as Overlord.

You don’t have to accept the task, but once you accept it, you must complete it, otherwise there will be penalties.

As for what this penalty is, there is no explanation at all above. According to Zhou Yuanqiang's guess, the penalty for failure will be shown when accepting the task. As for how much experience you will get for completing it, it has been clearly stated above.

Corresponding experience will be given based on the difficulty and the evaluation given during the completion process.

It is indeed becoming more and more difficult to obtain crystals, and the crystals required for upgrades will also increase exponentially. Zhou Yuanqiang has also thought about it before. According to the multiplier of the level of the ring, it may take one or two years to collect the level 13 or 4 rings.

The crystal can be upgraded. But the question is... what about the levels after level 14? How to upgrade?

The new method of obtaining experience has undoubtedly solved this problem, but after reading the explanation, Zhou Yuanqiang hesitated. When he didn't know what the punishment was, he still used the method of obtaining crystals, which was much more reassuring.

But when Zhou Yuanqiang focused on the crystallized energy needed to upgrade to the thirteenth level, his whole body was like a lightning strike. He became dumbfounded and shouted: "No way? It's twenty times that of the thirteenth level. I

……I……"

He called me several times, but I couldn't come up with a reason.

At this moment, Zhou Yuanqiang almost had the urge to cry. You must know that from the eleventh level to the twelfth level, nearly two million crystals have been lost, which is more than half. If the upgrade to the thirteenth level is the previous

Twenty times, which means that Zhou Yuanqiang has to find at least nearly 30 million crystals of different levels.

"Damn it, do you think the crystals are stones or sand in the wasteland? Are they all over the ground? Oh my god, there is only one crystal for each zombie. Even if a province has a corpse queen who can breed zombies, it is only 2 to 3 billion.

Just a few..."

Zhou Yuanqiang is already going crazy. Even if he can kill all the zombies in the entire province and get the crystal, how much materials will be consumed in the process and how huge an army will be organized will it be possible to complete the hunt for 230 million zombies.

Kill? Using crystals to upgrade is almost like a bottomless pit... no matter how many crystals you have, it won't be enough to upgrade it.

But fortunately, at least there is still hope for crystal upgrade, but this hope... is too slim, but it is still an upgrade method, isn't it?

In fact, in Zhou Yuanqiang's opinion, this second method of gaining experience is nothing more than a supplementary upgrade method provided by the ring because the first method of upgrading was too abnormal in the later period. From now on, it seems that it is also

The only way to improve experience.

Zhou Yuanqiang was a little confused. Why did he have to constantly upgrade the ring? Could it be that when he used this ring and obtained the ability of the ring, his responsibility was to increase the level of the ring? And as the ring improved, the abilities he gained would also increase.

powerful?

It seems...it is basically a circular utilization relationship.

Shaking his head, Zhou Yuanqiang smiled bitterly and said: "Forget it, let's not think about this problem for now, let's take a look at what this mission mode is all about!"

Use your mind to activate the function of receiving tasks, and soon, in your mind, a line of three question marks appeared on the information panel. Although there are no buttons to receive tasks like in the game, Zhou Yuanqiang knows that as long as he

If you want to receive anything, a panel will pop up to ask you to confirm again. As long as you confirm again, the task will be regarded as received.

"No, the mission is still unknown? Do we have to wait for someone to receive the mission before there will be a mission description, including the difficulty?"

Zhou Yuanqiang was so entangled and said angrily: "What kind of broken model is this? If there is a mission for me to go to Mars, should I start building a spaceship and land on Mars? Or, let me go to the ocean.

In the deepest place, write the words "xx came here for a trip?"

But Zhou Yuanqiang, who had calmed down, knew that what was mentioned above should be unlikely to happen.

The ring provides a new mode. Of course, the tasks given are also determined according to the user's ability. It cannot exceed the user's ability by too much. Otherwise, if the task cannot be completed, how can the ring be upgraded? The ring is owned by the owner.

Yes, if the user dies, it will be impossible to find the next user again.

Looking at these three question marks, Zhou Yuanqiang also became hesitant: "Would you like to receive one and have a look?"

Since there is not much information for Zhou Yuanqiang to understand this mode, the best way is to receive a mission and everything will be understood naturally. But Zhou Yuanqiang hesitated for a while and finally gave up. The reason is very simple, because Zhou Yuanqiang himself is not ready yet.

good.

Qingyuan City has just been recaptured, and the relocation of settlements is in progress. The tens of thousands of soldiers lost need to be re-recruited and trained, the expended artillery shells, etc. need to be replenished, and the city needs repairs. A large number of manufacturing plants are breaking ground. The Western District is due to

The settlement area that has been officially decided to become a settlement after relocation is also being intensively planned.

It can be said that no one in the entire settlement is idle. Everyone has a pile of work that needs to be completed, and everyone is extremely busy.

Under this situation, Zhou Yuanqiang did not dare to accept the task rashly, because he simply could not mobilize the extra strength to help himself. Before determining what type of task it was, Zhou Yuanqiang did not dare to bear the possible punishment, because

He also didn't know what the punishment would be.

To apply the same thing in vicious martial arts, if you fail to practice successfully, you will be forced to commit suicide directly... If this is the case, you are finished. If a man is cut off, can he still be called a man? Just hit him to death.

Withdrawing his mind from the information panel in his mind, Zhou Yuanqiang looked at the empty crystal warehouse with a wry smile. There were nearly two million crystals, with less than half left. He originally wanted to take out the crystals in the storage space and put them back.

It's in a warehouse, but think about it, it's just hundreds of thousands of crystals. When piled up, it doesn't take up much space. Now that it has been upgraded to a higher level, the space has doubled, so it's better to hold it in your hand.

It is impossible for people to travel without money.

This crystal is one of the hardest circulating coins in the apocalypse, along with gold. Carrying these crystals on your body will give you some confidence, right? Zhou Yuanqiang doesn’t want to stump a hero with a penny.

Appear.

When he was about to leave the warehouse, Zhou Yuanqiang suddenly realized that he had just been too immersed in contemplation of the mission mode and had not yet had time to check what skills were given at level 11.

With excitement, Zhou Yuanqiang quickly found the location of the skill.

The name of the skill is very ordinary, nothing outstanding, but when Zhou Yuanqiang saw the introduction of the skill, tears suddenly flowed down. It was not tears, but emotion, because he realized that he had paid so much and worked so hard.

It is undoubtedly correct to upgrade the ring to level 11. This skill is the best reward for your efforts.

This is exactly what the saying goes: God rewards those who work hard.
