This Text Adventure Game is Totally Poisonous
Chapter 199 The Value of Lifespan (6000 words)
"Oh? You have sunflowers?" Mu You was quite surprised.
"I don't have one, but one of my clients does." Lu Yao said.
"Client?" Mu You was taken aback.
"I opened a second-hand store on the forum, don't you know?" said the other side.
"……I gonna go see."
Mu You casually cut out of the forum, turned to the homepage of 'The Man of Fire' and took a look.
Sure enough, the name of her homepage has now changed to 'Chuanhuo Xiaodian', and there are dozens of pictures listed below, all of which are all kinds of equipment and props, each with the purchase price and detailed information on it. The equipment introduction looks a bit similar to the exchange interface in the Longteng software.
"Where did you get so much equipment?" Mu You asked strangely.
"Some of them were recovered by me at a low price, and some were sold by customers. If they were sold, I would receive a part of the commission... By the way, do you have any second-hand items that you would like to sell?" Lu Yao Say.
"You are Xianyu..."
Mu You has already found familiar advertisements on many product pages, "Girls use Jiujiuxin for themselves", "Girlfriends vomit blood and resell" and so on.
"Almost, but I do not only do domestic business, but I also do international business. A few days ago, a player in Africa sent a private message asking me if Sunflower would be accepted. I thought it would be confiscated if it couldn't be sold. I didn't expect that someone would really want it."
"It's still an international version..."
Mu You was speechless for a while. After carefully looking through the historical records, I found that the popularity of her shop is not low. In the historical sales, more than a dozen pieces of equipment have been sold, but most of them are above the elite level, and very few of the ordinary level and black iron level.
Lu Yao said: "I'll contact that person right away. It may take a few days to receive the goods. Keep those two pieces of equipment for me first!"
"Can."
Mu You nodded. It doesn't matter who he trades with. Since the other party has channels, it is of course the most convenient and safest way to trade with acquaintances, saving him trouble.
"By the way, how do you set the price of the equipment in your store?" Mu You asked again.
The prices of the equipment in her shop are a bit confusing, and the prices of the goods sold in the Astral World shop seem to be quite different.
"The average price of the black iron grade equipment here is 5 years per piece, the average lifespan of 30 years for the common grade, 250 years for the refined grade, 1500 years for the rare grade, 7000-9000 years for the epic grade, and an average of about 8000 years...Of course, The most advanced equipment I have received so far is the excellent grade, and no one has asked me to sell the equipment above the rare grade..." Lu Yao said.
"The price of black iron and ordinary is so low..."
Mu You found that the price of her product was a bit hard. It takes 30 years for a piece of black iron equipment in the star spirit world, and it has been directly reduced by 6 times in her case. The 100 years of the ordinary level has been reduced to less than one-third in her place, and the 300 years of the elite level is not much. .
But in the future, the rare level equipment is about 1000-1300 years old in the star spirit world, and the epic level equipment is about 5000 to 8000 years old, but it will appreciate in value in her shop!
"No way, the higher the level of equipment, the fewer the quantity, and the easier it is to sell. There is no market in the astral world. I can basically get the equipment above the elite level and sell it very quickly. But ordinary grade and black iron grade are hard to sell, and many of them have been hung up for a long time and no one cares about them." Lu Yao said.
Mu You understood after listening. To put it bluntly, equipment is also a luxury for players. Those who can afford equipment are often rich enough old players, and old players will not lack low-level equipment below the normal level. After all, this thing is in the game. Bad streets, spawning monsters to open treasure chests, etc. have a high probability of breaking out, and it will overflow after playing for a long time.
To put it simply, it is "you can't afford it if you need it, and you don't need it if you can afford it", which eventually led to this relatively deformed market price.
"In this case, I want all the equipment in your store!" Mu You said suddenly after looking at the pictures of many equipment in the store and doing some mental calculation.
"Ah?" Lu Yao was obviously taken aback when she heard the words: "Are you serious?"
"certainly."
"..."
Lu Yao was silent, and it took a long time before she spoke: "Actually, those 'girls' labels' are just labels, not real..."
"...uh, I know."
"Know you still buy it?"
"Khan, what do you think I bought it for?" Mu You's face was full of black lines. Of course, he bought low-level equipment for synthesis. What did the other party think?
"I also want to know, there are a lot of women's equipment here, what do you want to use?" Lu Yao asked.
"Don't worry about it, anyway, I have a serious purpose. Will you sell it or not?"
"Of course you want me to sell it. I'm just worried that I won't be able to sell it. I'm just afraid you'll lose money." Lu Yao said.
"Then it's settled, do you accept cash or something else?" Mu You asked.
"At present, I only accept barter here, and I don't accept cash for the time being."
Lu Yao said, and then added: "Recently, the price of cash-for-life has fluctuated a bit, so I have to wait and see."
"Oh? How about bartering?"
"As far as the price I mentioned above, you can exchange some advanced equipment or props, one piece of common equipment can be exchanged for six pieces of black iron, one piece of excellent equipment can be exchanged for 50 pieces of black iron, and you have other types of props or potions. I can also give you an estimate on the spot."
"Very professional..."
Mu You nodded, glanced at the product list again, and soon had a plan.
"Then a fine-grade silt boots, in exchange for all four pieces of common equipment, plus 26 pieces of black iron equipment."
There are currently only 4 common items and 29 black iron items in the other party's store, and Mu You's sweep basically wiped them all out for her.
"Milty boots... aren't you one of the rewards posted in the post about exchanging Xiangyanghua?" Lu Yao was puzzled, he has already paid in advance the future remuneration, what will he exchange for Xiangyanghua then?
"Don't worry, the excellent equipment will definitely not be given to you."
Mu You exhaled.
The synthesis furnace has six pieces of black iron combined into one ordinary piece, and six ordinary pieces combined into one excellent one. In terms of value, it is equivalent to 36 pieces of black iron. 250 years, each synthesis of a fine piece is equivalent to a net profit of 70 years of life.
He bought these, plus the four pieces of common equipment he already had, enough to synthesize two pieces of high-level equipment. One can be exchanged, and he can keep one for himself, which is a sure profit deal.
"That's fine."
The two quickly finalized the deal and agreed to deliver the goods tomorrow morning.
After hanging up the phone, Mu You continued to browse the Fool's forum, and switched to the trading interface to have a look.
He was a little concerned about Lu Yao's phrase "recent price fluctuations in cash-for-life" just now.
This observation, sure enough, the recent magic props and item trading market has changed a lot.
Before cash was exchanged for magic items, it was exchanged according to the lifespan ratio of 100,000:1, but in recent trading posts, this ratio began to drop wildly, from 50,000 to 1 to 30,000 to 1, and even some posts today, the market has become One year of life is equivalent to about 10,000 cash, which is ten times lower than the original!
For this, Mu You can certainly think of the reason: it is obviously because of the impact of the previous public beta announcement!
The reason lifespan and magic props were so precious before was because they were rare enough, but once the public beta comes and the lifespan transaction is opened, people from all over the world can enter the game and get magic props and lifespan from it, then as a large number of magic props flow into the market Of course, the value of lifespan and magic props will also depreciate sharply until they return to their original value, which is close to the price of the astral world.
As for the value of the lifespan of the star spirit world, according to Mu You's experience when he met the goblin merchant, a pack of food worth three months' rations costs about 20 days' lifespan. belly rations.
According to this value calculation, the value of one day's lifespan should be between 20 and 30 yuan in RMB.
According to this standard, the current exchange ratio may continue to decrease. In other words, the earth currency will continue to appreciate in the future, so it is not wise to exchange cash for magic items recently.
No wonder there have been fewer large-amount cash transactions on the forum these days. It seems that players have a keen sense of smell.
After scrolling through the forum posts for a while, the time gradually passed zero.
In the game, he finally arrived at the location of the drunkard blacksmith.
Mu You cut off the herbal picker's skin and went into the blacksmith's shop.
The old dwarf was still so dedicated, and he didn't make him wait for the big night, and the interactive text popped up as soon as he arrived.
Mu You ordered a bottle of Moutai from the ring.
[You presented a bottle of unknown wine to the dwarf blacksmith. 】
[After the blacksmith tasted it, he called out 'Sacred Wine', and immediately treated you as a distinguished guest, and enthusiastically asked you what you need. 】
Sure enough, the undiluted wine was very popular among the dwarves.
Mu You clicked on the synthesis stove in his backpack.
[You take out the cracked synthesis furnace and ask the blacksmith if it can be repaired. 】
【You saw the blacksmith take the synthesis furnace and observe for a long time, your face became serious, and finally nodded to you. 】
[The blacksmith said that the furnace is made of a special material and can be repaired, but it needs a very special material. Without this material, even he cannot repair it. 】
[You asked what materials the blacksmith needs? 】
【The blacksmith holds up all the fingers of both hands to you solemnly! 】
[Ten bottles! The blacksmith tells you that if you want to know this secret, you need at least ten bottles of this wine! 】
"Ten bottles..."
Mu You's finger was already placed on the box in the ring that he specially packed and sealed in a large box containing fifty bottles of various famous wines. Seeing this condition, I was taken aback, and withdrew my finger from the option of "gift all", opened the box, and counted ten bottles out.
[You handed ten bottles of unknown wine to the dwarf blacksmith. 】
【The blacksmith was overjoyed, hurriedly put away all the wine bottles, and happily told Xin Mi. 】
[The material needed to repair the stove is called 'Cold Iron Essence', which is an extremely rare living metal that can only be born and continue to grow in extremely cold places. 】
[The old blacksmith once owned a piece of cold iron seedling, but it was too small to be used for refining. This is also the reason why he chose to retire at the foot of Misty Mountain after being exiled by the empire. The icy environment on the top of the misty mountain is the perfect environment for the growth of cold iron essence. 】
[When the blacksmith was young, he sent the iron seedling to the top of the Misty Mountain. Now that hundreds of years have passed, it should have grown to a size sufficient for refining weapons. 】
[It's just that the environment on the top of the misty mountain is too extreme. The icy wind that acts on the regular level floats on the top of the snowy mountain all the year round. This kind of wind has the characteristic of "unable to keep warm". No matter how thick the clothes are, people will be in the wind Suffering from hypothermia until freezing to death. 】
[The dwarves live in the icy and snowy plateau all the year round, and they have a natural resistance to the cold. Coupled with the strong body of the blacksmith when he was young, he can resist the invasion of the cold wind. , the body has long since deteriorated, and can no longer resist the harsh environment on the top of the mountain, so it has been a long time since he was unable to go up the mountain to retrieve the iron essence. 】
[The blacksmith handed you the map of the location where he buried the iron essence on the top of the mountain, and said that if you have the ability to retrieve the iron essence on the top of the mountain, he will give you the iron essence as a gift and help you repair the synthesis furnace. 】
[You have obtained the 'Simply Misty Mountaintop Map'. 】
Mu You clicked it out and took a look, and it was indeed a 'rudimentary' map. The relative positions of several peaks were outlined on the map with just a few strokes, and then an X was drawn somewhere on one of the peaks.
"Can't keep warm..."
Mu You frowned. The inability to keep warm means that ordinary foreign objects cannot be used to resist the cold. The body itself must be able to withstand the temperature of nearly 100 degrees below zero. This is indeed a bit troublesome.
For the time being, the only solution that Mu You can think of is the potion called 'Ice Resistance Potion'.
However, this potion can only last for five minutes, and the cooling time is as long as one day. In such a vast snow-capped mountain, five minutes is obviously too late to do anything.
After thinking for a while, Mu You still shook his head. This matter is not urgent. Even a broken stove can still be used, at least it can be synthesized normally below the elite level. As for the higher level, he doesn't have so many low-level equipment available now. .
After leaving the blacksmith shop, Mu You teleported to the forest of elves.
After getting the chocobo, it was much easier to travel. After more than ten minutes, he found the training hall in the forest, entered it, and chose a training of 'Elf Fighting Technique'.
This is a pure melee skill training without adding any attributes or talents. Mu You still doesn't know the specific effect, but among the remaining training that can be exchanged, this seems to be the most useful one.
[Elf fighting training is expected to be completed in 8 hours...]
Eight hours of training, the game cannot be operated.
Mu You went out to complete the shifting task, and then took a good night's sleep.
Early the next morning, Lu Yao called early and woke Mu You up.
When I went downstairs, I saw a sneaky little girl hovering at the door.
Mu You opened the door and let her in.
Lu Yao took out a cardboard box from her backpack. After opening it, it was filled with all kinds of equipment.
Mu You also handed over the mud boots to her.
After the two counted each other, the deal was concluded.
"Are you sure you want everything? It's too late to regret it now..." Lu Yao still looked at Mu You suspiciously.
"What's there to regret? Besides, I'll take care of all the normal-level and black-iron-level equipment in your store from now on." Mu You said.
"Damn it, you want more?"
Lu Yao looked at Mu You in surprise, hesitated for a moment, and asked, "Do you... have any way to synthesize equipment?"
Mu You thought for a while, then nodded: "I know a blacksmith in the game, who can combine low-level equipment into high-level ones, but the highest level is the elite level."
This business will be done for a long time in the future, just like now, Lu Yao can see his purpose so easily, so he might as well find a reasonable reason by himself to save others from guessing.
"Sure enough!"
Lu Yao's eyes lit up: "That's great! In the future, if you want to sell your sophisticated equipment, remember to find me!"
"it is good."
...
Watching Lu Yao leave, Mu You moved the box back to the room, entered the backpack space, took out the synthesis furnace, and started the experiment on the spot.
In the description of the synthesis furnace, the word 'recipe' is mentioned, that is to say, the actual synthesis combination may be more than those two.
Mu You randomly picked six pieces of black iron grade equipment from the box, and threw them into the furnace one by one, filling up the six grids.
After closing the lid, the furnace trembled slightly, the surface gradually became hot, and the synthesis began.
[Synthesis Furnace: Synthesizing, it is expected to end in 24 hours. The synthesis process cannot be interrupted, otherwise it will lead to unknown consequences. 】
"Unknown consequences..."
Seeing the reminder from the all-knowing crystal, Mu You thought for a while, held his pocket watch, and lifted the furnace cover.
The moment the lid was lifted, a large amount of hot air gushed out, and at the same time, accompanied by a muffled sound, a piece of equipment that was being formed in the furnace turned into a piece of coke in the dense mist.
But before it was scorched, Mu You could see clearly that it was a bow, and the style looked somewhat familiar.
"That is to say, what will be refined in the end is actually determined the moment the equipment is thrown in..."
Thinking about it, Mu You immediately pressed the pocket watch and went back to before starting the synthesis.
Looking into the furnace again, sure enough, in the first grid of the furnace at this moment, there is a black iron bow, which is almost the same shape as the fused equipment just now.
This discovery moved Mu You's heart: Could it be that the synthesized equipment is not completely random, but also has a certain pattern?
Thinking of this, he immediately changed a batch of equipment into it, and conducted the same experiment again.
As a result, after the lid was lifted this time, what formed in the furnace was a phantom of a shield, and none of the six pieces of equipment he just put in was a shield?
"Is it just a coincidence?"
Mu You frowned, went back in time, and continued to try.
What follows is constant experimentation and backtracking.
After trying dozens of times in a row and combining all kinds of equipment at hand as much as possible, Mu You finally figured out the rule: as long as three of the six pieces of equipment invested are of the same type, such as three weapons, The final synthesis must be a weapon, and at the same time, the style and appearance of the final synthesis weapon will also be the same as the weapon in the first grid.
And if three items of each of the two types are placed at the same time, such as three weapons and three breastplates, the probability of the breastplate and the weapon appearing in the end is half.
In other words, as long as the conditions are met, he can predict the type and shape of the final synthetic equipment in advance.
It's much easier to master this rule.
The first thing Mu You thought of was: You can upgrade your mithril bow!
"Mithril bow, red oak wand, poison wand, hound helmet, colonist shoulder armor, flame necklace."
Mu You put six pieces of ordinary equipment into the furnace one by one, and closed the lid.
After starting to synthesize, he turned on the furnace and took a look. In the flashing light and shadow, it was indeed the image of the mithril bow that was left in the furnace, and it still had an empty slot.
In other words, the punch slots will also be inherited after synthesis!
So Mu You felt relieved, went back in time, put the lid on again, and started the synthesis with peace of mind.
It would take a whole day to synthesize, so Mu You placed the stove in the corner, then took out his phone to take a look.
[Elf fighting training has been completed. 】
One night passed, and the training in the training hall was over.
Mu You felt that there were some messy memories, or instincts, in his mind.
This is a very mysterious feeling, he immediately recruited a wooden clone in the grass, and tried his fists and kicks with the clone.
The conclusion is that his actions and reactions are obviously smoother than before, and his every move has a pattern. Of course, this is not an improvement brought about by attribute changes, but an improvement in combat skills.
If it is said that his close combat with people in the past was all wild ways of street fighting, now he has a formal fighting system. The elf fighting style, which is known for its flexibility and agility, allows him to use his original strength and agility attributes in a more efficient way.
No changes can be seen on the panel, but the actual combat ability has been greatly improved.
"good!"
Mu You nodded in satisfaction. These trainings exchanged by the elves are still very solid, there is no fooling around, and you get what you pay for.
There was no plan for the next day, and Mu Youwo made a card at home all day.
In addition to copying a few copies of the newly obtained 'Fire Giant' and 'Annihilation', he also successfully converted the 'Wooden Clone' into black magic.
[Wooden clone: high-level black magic, using plant energy to create a mirror clone with exactly the same appearance, and copy the mirror image of the equipment currently worn by the body (only inherits the basic attributes of the original equipment, and automatically disappears after leaving the clone.)
This avatar has 100% of the panel attributes of the main body, and can use all the ordinary magic mastered by the main body. The avatar shares vision with the main body, but the avatar has no consciousness and needs to be controlled by the main body. The duration is unlimited, and there is at most one clone. 】
The clone of the black magic version cancels the limitation of not being able to cause damage, and at the same time inherits the attributes of the main body and ordinary magic.
A clone that can use magic is too powerful!
It's a trivial matter to confuse the real with the fake, and recruiting such a doppelganger in the battle is equivalent to doubling the combat power!
The weakness is that only ordinary magic is inherited, black magic and equipment effects cannot be inherited.
In addition, this avatar has no consciousness, and it will not move when it is not controlled. It is equivalent to a wood carving, and Mu You must concentrate on controlling it at any time.
This comparison tests Mu You's dual-thread ability, especially in the rapidly changing battle, dual-tasking often means that the mind has to switch back and forth between the main body and the avatar. The more intense the moment, the easier it is to lose sight of the other.
There is no shortcut to this technique, and it can only be adapted slowly through long-term double-line practice.
