In the end, Fangzheng only chose to exchange for 30 Dimension Points and kept the rest of the crystal energy. In the game , Soul Stones were not unique. This could be seen from the number of times they could be used up. Every Soul Stone had its own number of times to be used up. Once it was used up, it would be gone. Of course, this was not something that could not be changed. Players could also draw Strengthening Stones and Charging Stones. The former could increase the overall strength of the Soul Stone by + 1, while the latter could replenish the number of times the Soul Stone could be used up.
Why did he specifically mention these two? Because right now, Fangzheng just happened to draw these two.... Well, what a sad story.
Returning to the original topic, was a combat system that focused on the characters created by the players. This had actually broken away from the boundaries of ordinary mobile games and was closer to the routine of online games. Players would always need to strengthen themselves. Equipment could be obtained through dungeon drops and rewards, while skill enhancements could be obtained through completing missions. What the crystal energy could be used to exchange for were more cosmetic enhancements. Of course, there were also some rather rare items. For example, accessories that could increase the drop rate of equipment, or consumables that could increase the player's attributes.
Even in dungeons, the crystal energy could be used to unlock some rather rare functions.
And now, Fangzheng was aiming for a ring in the Merchant Shop. It was called the Ring of Souls. Its function was to give the user an additional 30 inventory slots, + 3% equipment drop, + automatic equipment pickup, + 5% chance of absorbing soul power when defeated. The most important of these was the "5% chance to absorb soul power". According to the setting of , the Soul Stone used soul power. Therefore, using a Soul Stone once was equivalent to using soul power. The function of the "Soul Ring" was to absorb soul power. As long as the ring could absorb a certain amount of soul power, it could be used up even without using Charging Stones.
Of course, according to Fangzheng's settings, there were two ways to obtain this ring. One was to grind hard in a hard difficulty dungeon and rely on luck to drop it, and the other was to directly buy it with money.
For players, it was just the difference between working hard and spending money. However, as a designer, Fangzheng knew very well that every high-level pay-to-win item had a hidden setting of "Luck + 1". In other words, if a player with a full set of paywalls and a player with a full set of equipment fought the same Boss, the former had a much higher chance of obtaining a Rare item than the latter.
For a valuable item and equipment with a 0.1% drop rate, the drop rate for a player with paywalls was 3%! Moreover, the chances of drawing a high-quality Soul Stone would be higher with the points spent. It would be higher than grinding for free points! What? Manipulation under the table? Are you kidding me? The big boss is willing to spend money to support us. Of course, we have to think of ways to make his gaming experience better. Only when the big boss was happy would he continue to top up the money.
As for free players? Weren't they used to hug the big shots' thighs and harvest leeks? You want to be a big shot when you don't have money? No such thing exists!
Of course, everything was useless against the Europeans.
That's about right ….
Looking at the two Charging Stones and Strengthening Stones in his hands, Fangzheng muttered to himself. He had a pretty good idea of the depth of the stone pool he set. Although pay-to-win players were definitely easier to draw than those without, as a game designer, he couldn't make it too obvious. Otherwise, if you topped up 1,000 yuan and got five stars in a row for every ten, anyone with a discerning eye would know there was a problem. Then, a little skill was required.
For example, if the same ten players got ten consecutive tens, but the free players didn't have luck and risked their lives to get five stars — Fangzheng naturally wouldn't care about that. The rich were the boss, the poor were the f * ck. But what about the pay-to-win boss? I can't give you ten consecutive five-stars for ten consecutive tens, but I can make the first nine consecutive tens fail to produce five stars, and then three consecutive five-stars for the last ten …. This kind of huge contrast will make the big boss wild with joy. This way, the happy big boss would choose to continue to top up, and the ordinary players who were leeks wouldn't think there was a problem with the fairness of the card draw. What's wrong with everyone being happy?
In the "Dimensional Codex", the quality of Soul Stones was divided into four grades: Bronze, Silver, Gold, and Fantasy. Bronze and Silver were the homes of non-pay-to-win players and Africans, while Gold and Fantasy were exclusive to pay-to-win kings and European emperors.
Fangzheng's previous draw, [Arthas], was a Gold Soul Stone. It could be said that his luck was pretty good. But now, according to Fangzheng's plan, after the first top-up, there was a high probability that he would draw a Gold or Fantasy Soul Stone. The first two times he drew were consumables, so the last draw … should be a Soul Stone!
Although he didn't know what it would be, Fangzheng could only pray that it would be something presentable. It would be best if it was an existence like an angel or a god. At the very least, a mage or warrior would do. Please don't give me another Lich King! I don't even dare to use my ultimate skill now!
While praying silently, Fangzheng stretched out his hand again and placed it on the Dimensional Codex that only he could see. Soon, under Fangzheng's hand, the Dimensional Codex flipped open again. The circular summoning circle under his body began to rotate gradually. It slowly changed its colour from white to green, then to gold … Then, with a flash of light, countless golden light particles condensed in the center of the circle, forming the shape of a Soul Stone.
It's done! The Golden Legend!
Looking at the shining golden Soul Stone in front of him, Fangzheng took a deep breath. He stretched out his hand and grabbed it.
The next moment, there was only darkness in front of him.
Pitch-black, dense clouds shrouded the entire sky. Below them, the huge city was abnormally dark, looking like a lifeless graveyard. For a moment, there seemed to be only black and white left in the world. There was nothing else.
Then, a voice sounded.
"I, am a swarm …"
The next moment, the scene in front of him suddenly became clear. The gigantic monster emerged from the clouds, and many egg-like objects fell from its body, smashing heavily on the ground, creating large, pitch-black holes. The soldiers shouted loudly and attacked with all their might. But the next moment, their bodies were completely pierced through and torn to pieces by the monster that emerged from the holes.
"The army is reduced to ashes, the world is burning under my feet …"
Countless swarm of insects flowed through the city like a sea made of flesh and blood. They destroyed everything in sight. The humans formed the last line of defense in the square. Countless soldiers lined up and clenched the weapons in their hands. Behind them, giant steel cannons slowly raised their bodies and let out an earth-shattering roar.
Sparks exploded among the swarm of insects and then disappeared, like waves stirred up by a small stone hitting the sea. Small, fragile, and meaningless.
"Finally, I will complete my revenge on this planet."
The dazzling flames gradually extinguished. The barrier of the humans shattered like bubbles under the attack of the swarm of insects. At the end of the square, a towering statue broke and fell to the ground. At the end of the clouds in the distance, a huge battleship fell from the sky, shrouding the whole world in a deathly white light.
"Because I am the Queen of Blades!"
… …..
Fangzheng opened his eyes. At that moment, his entire face was black. He stared at the Dimensional Codex in front of him, completely at a loss for words.
First it was Arthis, now it's Kerrigan. Are you forcing me to walk the path of arrogance?
