The author's diary of ghost stories

[Group leader]: Create a "group" and become the "group leader".

Yu Liang looked at this ability with some doubts in his heart.

"Swarm" is something deeply imprinted in the genes of every flesh-and-blood civilization creation. Whether they are egg-born humans or deformed people, or whistle beasts and meat monsters, they all have the ability to create "swarms."

The whistle beast mother body could create a "group" before, but this ability was not reflected on the character card panel. Instead, it now obtains this [group leader] after being amplified by the life spring.

In other words, the focus of this ability is not to create a "group", but to become the "group leader".

Yu Liang was relatively familiar with this. He had connected with dozens of deformed people when he lost consciousness in the Whistle Beast's lair, and was then trapped in the "group" consciousness.

He tried to become the brains of the "group", to completely control these deformed people and turn them into his own tools, but in the end he failed.

It is not that simple to become the brain of the "group", nor is it that easy to resist the erosion of consciousness by deformed people.

Yu Liang could feel that this was an extremely ancient ritual, similar to the dueling ritual in the West, but he was not a native, so he was not good at dealing with this ritual.

So does the ability of the Whistle Beast mother body mean that it is forced to become the "leader of the group"?

this……

Even if you are a native?

A bold idea appeared in Yu Liang's mind.

How about letting the whistler mother create a group and then bring the natives into it?

If there was anything in this copy that impressed Yu Liang the most, it was naturally the native who was chasing him just now.

Multi-form mode, mastering the core technology of flesh and blood, powerful and calm, tenacious and persistent, always with an indifferent expression.

Both in terms of style and strength, he is one of the best, and his strength surpasses almost all flesh-and-blood T1s that Yu Liang has ever encountered.

Of course, this feeling is also because of the strange methods of the native. He is not as simple as those T1-level flesh and blood types in the past. He does not just rely on physical fitness and simple skills to fight.

Under normal circumstances, if Yu Liang does not rely on Lu Jie, he will easily have trouble against any T1.

This is true for the Sea of ​​Flesh, the Princess, the Hexagonal Head, etc.

Is it possible to use the creation of a flesh-and-blood civilization to control its owner?

However, such an idea only excited him for a moment. Yu Liang's cautious instinct made him refuse to use the whistle beast's mother body for such an experiment.

It would be a bit uncomfortable if a native had some special characteristics and forced himself to become the "leader" of the whistle beast's mother body.

And judging from the performance of the whistle beast's mother body, it was willing to join the universe mainly for the ethnic group. The ethnic group is the product of the native people, so it is difficult to guess what its attitude towards the native people is.

"Look at me, if I ask you to kill the master of flesh and blood civilization and kill those people in the brain network, will you obey?" Yu Liang looked at the fat white mother body and asked.

"Kill. Master. Not the master." The mother's eyes showed some confusion. It seemed to be thinking about something, and finally said, "For the sake of the ethnic group, you can kill. If the ethnic group is stronger, you don't need them."

"Okay." Yu Liang finally understood the meaning of the whistle beast's mother body.

For the continuation of the whistle beast group, it does not mind killing native people, because for it, the most important thing is to return flesh and blood civilization to the [tree].

As for what exactly flesh-and-blood civilization is...

In the cognition of the Whistle Beast mother body, all life forms on this planet are.

There is no so-called master-slave relationship between natives and whistle beasts, just like the "group" setting.

The intelligent whistle beasts are willing to become the tools of the "herd", while the natives are the brains of the "herd" as a matter of course.

But it is not difficult to judge from the words of the whistle beast mother body that the strange creatures that join the universe are not necessarily absolutely loyal and obedient.

Yu Liang is clear about this. When the intimacy is not enough, every strange creature may betray.

He looked through the character cards in the universe and found that all the other monsters were honest and honest. Even the cunning paper man team had never thought of betrayal or anything.

On the one hand, he didn't dare, and on the other hand, he had meat to eat with Yu Liang.

Instead, the mother whistle beast, which has "Loyal Obedience" written on its character panel, is at risk of betrayal.

Forget it, take it into the universe first and don’t release it.

After finishing this dungeon, after returning to reality and away from the [Tree], the Whistle Beast mother body should not be so evil.

At that time, it is the safest way to take it back for your own use.

As for controlling natives...

It's not impossible. If you can't survive, you can definitely die.

Corpses can also join "groups" and may be safer.

In this case, he would need to find an opportunity to kill a native and then bring the body back to reality.

Yu Liang put the whistle beast's mother body away, and then took a look at its character card again.

The current remaining life span has become "104342 hours". Yu Liang simply calculated with his hands and found that the life span is about eleven or twelve years, not too short but not too long.

After all, the remainder of the mother's body will consume a lot of lifespan. Maybe you will still need to find something to replenish the source of life in the future.

Yu Liang focused on the "Shi Rui" reactor and goblin compound liquid that the masked man casually placed on the warehouse shelf.

Although I don’t like it a bit, I’d better take it if I can.

After all, the props provided by the masked man should be of decent quality. It is best to get them all if you have the chance.

Later, Yu Liang "purchased" several grass babies from the masked man. Just as Li Huachao had planned, the grass babies after the second screening had some special qualifications. The five grass babies watered by the demon blood had The two possess the ability of [dodge without killing].

He switched to Li Huachao and tried the grass infant's ability, first one, then two, and then switched to the writer profession to try it out.

So when the masked man and the Scrooge were having a heated chat, the background was filled with some inexplicable things being beaten by the abilities of the two grass babies, flying from here to there, and from there to here. head.

Sometimes it's a human being born from an egg, sometimes it's a grass baby, sometimes it's a whistle beast mother, just like playing Angry Birds.

Fortunately, the warehouse was large enough to accommodate Yu Liang's troubles.

The masked man took two glances and understood what Yu Liang was doing. He didn't bother to care. After all, the goods in the warehouse were stored in storage boxes. Yu Liang's level of impact alone was not enough to affect the inside of the storage box. Products of.

After some experiments, Yu Liang obtained accurate data.

[Flash without killing] can be superimposed. As long as two grass babies use skills before the target moves, they can produce double the displacement.

During a single skill, T2-level Li Huachao will move 6 meters, T1-level Xiaoxiangu will move 4 meters, and T3-level Yu Liang will move 9 meters.

This is also the data for the strange creatures of the same gradient.

In addition, monsters at level T4 and below cannot be detected here, because the space in the warehouse is not large enough, and monsters will directly hit the wall and be blocked.

The speed and impact force of this displacement are affected by the mass and shape of the target itself. Basically, we can draw the conclusion:

The cannonball-shaped structure can produce a very good impact, and coupled with the explosion when it lands, it is basically the same as firing a cannonball.

If goblin bombs are used, the effect may be even greater.

After all, the goblin civilization is particularly good at developing bombs. They not only pursue power, but also have various weird functions, such as magnetic storm bombs, net bag capture bombs, sewage bombs, stink bombs, etc. These bombs are all sold in grocery stores. , but the sales volume is not good.

In addition to the previous best-selling index bombs of the goblins, the sales of other technological products of the goblin civilization are not good.

Of course, the masked man's pricing is the main contributor. The prices of these bombs are the same for two stamps. Except for the index bomb, the price/performance ratio of other bombs is somewhat low.

After Yu Liang finished testing the data, Scrooge taught almost all the details. This was something it had wanted to do a long time ago.

Among them is the character market. It hopes to cooperate with the masked man to open up a market where characters can be bought and sold freely.

The market opens every morning and closes in the afternoon. After the market opens, the character price is updated in real time. The price is calculated based on the weight ratio of inventory quantity, character effect, etc., and the opening price and closing price are announced daily. During this period, players can buy and sell freely. , but large transactions within a day will be restricted, etc.

The specific rules still need to be carefully studied by the money-grubbers. If you want to operate a character market and make huge profits from it, it still has a long way to go and a lot of books to read.

Looting wealth in a civilized and courteous way is a secret worthy of a lifetime of study by the money-keeping man.

This is a concept of deep-level cooperation, and at a shallow level, the Scrooge also taught the masked man how to "make rumors" and "spread rumors."

At first, the masked man refused. He felt that he could not do such a thing.

So the Scrooge changed his expression and came up with a new idea.

It hopes to place a wall in the grocery store that belongs to the consignment grass baby area. This wall does not just stay in a certain instance, but can be seen by players entering the grocery store in each instance.

In other words, the information on this wall is for all players in the Kaidan dungeon.

In this regard, the masked man said that he needed to ask "higher authority" for instructions, because this was the first time such a request had appeared.

But he suggested a suitable area, which was the wall connecting the shop and the warehouse.

The masked man's shop is located in each dungeon, but the warehouse is connected to all realms, so this wall is also connected to all realms. Grocery stores in different dungeons can see the information on this wall.

The Scrooge is planning to use this wall to make announcements, post some key player information, and establish an information trading platform.

In other words, this wall is the Cao Ying secondary market itself. Players can put second-hand Cao Ying in the consignment area for sale, and the information is announced through this wall.

The lowest price, friendly price, powerful grass baby discount, 90% new grass baby, etc., relevant information will be covered on the entire wall.

The Scrooge is also planning to leave a public screen area in the center of the wall. Information in this area will be released by individual players, but a certain fee will be charged.

At the same time, only four messages will appear in the central public screen area for ten minutes.

A day is 24 hours, with ten minutes as the smallest unit. A day in the public screen area is divided into 144 parts. The right to use it will be bid one (two) days ago, and the one with the highest price will win.

Of course, the starting price during prime time is higher than during garbage time, and more details need to be improved.

This public screen area Money Keeper is prepared for some advanced players. It hopes that someone will use the public screen area in the future to express love, propose marriage, declare war, get married, and other messy things.

The Scrooge is not sure whether the advanced players in the Kaitan World have the leisure to do such a thing, but it thinks it is a business opportunity, because the nature of human beings is to "join in the fun", and the grocery store is a relatively safe place. Maybe the Cao Ying consignment area can Become a camp for players.

At the beginning, it just wanted to spread rumors, but as it talked about the plan, it began to improve itself.

Probably just for this bowl of vinegar-wrapped dumplings.

Yu Liang and the masked man split the profits in this area 50-50. As long as "the top" agrees, when the huge system of Cao Ying market is put into operation, the related industries are bound to become a gold sales den.

Finally, the masked man stared at the money ghost with tired eyes and saw it leaving the warehouse with Yu Liang.

To be honest, they should have left here long ago. Players cannot stay in a safe area like a grocery store for too long, but

This plan of just a few dozen minutes gave him a great impact. For the first time, he discovered that this business could still be done.

The money-keeper's logic is strict and well-founded, showing him the future of the grass baby market, character market and other industries from all aspects.

He has no reason to reject such a wonderful future. Even if he fails, he will not suffer any loss, because he will always be the one with the interests of "Bai Lao".

At this time, the money-grubber respectfully calls him "shareholder".

but……

At first he just wanted to open a simple grocery store.

This made the masked man feel like he had betrayed his original intention, but he could no longer refuse because he was being coerced by a profit chariot, and he did not want to get off the chariot when it first started.

The masked man thought carefully, trying to recall where this thing started and how it led him to the road to wealth step by step.

After thinking for a while, he remembered that afternoon that day——

He took out the magic blood generator from the storage box at the bottom of the warehouse.

And, fortunately, someone can take over this kind of garbage.

——

Lee pointed outside the grocery store.

Looking in the direction of his finger, Yu Liang saw his paper people fighting.

There are rabbit paper figures, clown paper figures, moon-headed paper figures, and even paper figures with three eyes on their heads and tentacles and bone spurs on their bodies.

But there was nothing outside the lens door.

The natives are gone.

Lee used gestures to show that the native people had indeed gone a long time and that the open space outside was now safe.

Yu Liang walked to the door, looked at each other with Lee, and then opened the door together and came to the open space.

There are no traces of native people here.

Lee handed over a piece of paper: "The golden eyes on that person's head flashed violently a few times, and then he left."

Golden eyes flashing?

So, that native must have encountered something urgent?

"Where are you going next?" Yu Liang asked politely, because he felt that the answer was already obvious.

As rational master players, their choices should be the same.

The natives must have encountered some unexpected situation. Of course, this is the best time to kill someone with a retaliate.

And this is definitely a situation that the other two natives cannot handle, so this one was called back.

Um. Yu Liang had a premonition.

This sudden situation is probably related to the source of the ghost story.

Seize the opportunity and break through the second stage in one fell swoop!

Lee thought about it and gave his choice.

"I'm going to recruit a few more players to come back and open the Grass Baby Blind Box. I promised you that if you pull one, you can draw it for me once."

Yu Liang: "?"

At such a critical time, you don’t want to do the main plot, but you play card draws?

Are you out of your mind?
