With that, Trace Dragon Soul and Burning Snow bid their farewells. As for the list of candidates that the other party had forced onto him, Yang Rui could only keep it in his hands for the time being.
It was only after the two of them had left that Yang Rui discovered that the first person on the list was Burning Snow. No wonder Trace Dragon Soul had a strange look in his eyes and Burning Snow's bashful look.
"What is all this about?!"
Yang Rui bitterly smiled as he shook his head. He then sat down and fell into deep thought.
The information revealed by Trace Dragon Soul was truly shocking. If the situation was as he had described, then it would truly be a catastrophe!
When that time came, most people in the real world would not be able to attain the strength of a Seventh Grade Soldier or a Beginner General. Nor would they be able to obtain a corresponding amount of Silver Grade Soul Items or higher grade items.
This also meant that most people in the real world would not be able to escape the influence of the Origin Force. The result was self-evident. The accelerated life process was equivalent to a death sentence!
Even if Trace Dragon Soul and Burning Snow did not say anything, Yang Rui would definitely use his own methods to extend a helping hand to others. However, now that Yang Rui knew about this matter in advance, he needed to make more preparations.
Yang Rui himself and the people around him would naturally not be affected by the Origin Force. At this moment, Ren Sisi and Xiaohui had already grasped the Soul Internal Force Mantra. Moreover, they had already reached the Advanced Grade. Even the weakest among them, Chen Xiaonan, had already reached the Eighth Grade Soldier level. He also practiced the Soul Internal Force Mantra.
There was no need to talk about the other officers and family members that had materialized in the real world. Among them, none of them were weaker than famous historical figures. Only Du Yang's level of strength was relatively low. Thus, he would not be affected by the Origin Force Mantra.
Therefore, Yang Rui didn't need to worry about his own people. The crux of the problem at the moment was actually the lack of soul-type inner force mantra skill books and soul-type equipment that was Silver grade and above.
In particular, the soul-related foundational mental mantra skill book was the key to advancing to Seventh Grade. If one didn't have a foundational mental mantra, they wouldn't be able to advance, even if they had a more advanced mental mantra skill book.
At the same time, Yang Rui was also considering other types of mental cultivation method skill books other than the internal cultivation method. The internal cultivation method was only one of the most common types.
However, other than the Basic Internal Force Mental Cultivation Method * Soul Skill Book, Yang Rui had not seen any related Basic Soul Mental Cultivation Method Skill Books. In fact, this type of mental cultivation method was too rare.
Therefore, Yang Rui's speculation about this kind of basic mental cultivation method soul skill was basically not within the scope of consideration, at least for now.
Returning to the two major goals of the soul-related foundational mental cultivation method and Silver grade soul-type equipment, Yang Rui thought hard about the various sources of drops.
The sources of the two were basically similar. The first source was natural drops, but the drop rate was very low. Moreover, it was basically limited to humanoid monsters, so the chances of it being dropped were even lower.
The second source was the rewards from large-scale storyline missions. Currently, Yang Rui had a lot of Silver grade and above soul equipment, which were all accumulated through storyline mission rewards.
However, Yang Rui didn't pay much attention to the exchange of the Basic Internal Force Mental Cultivation Method * Soul Skill Book during the previous few storyline missions.
In general, the rewards from the large-scale storyline missions were abundant, and there were also plenty of choices. However, the large-scale storyline missions didn't happen frequently, so Yang Rui could only pay more attention in the future.
The third type of Silver-tier Soul-type equipment that Yang Rui could think of was the Tower of Civilization. In the Tower of Civilization, there would be a soul reward every ten levels, and the number and quality of the rewards would change according to the level.
Yang Rui had reached the 115th floor of the Tower of Civilization last time, and received more than ten chances to draw soul-type items. From that, he had obtained a lot of high-grade soul-type items.
At the same time, the Tower of Civilization also produced Seventh Grade Soldier Upgrade Skill Books, including normal Seventh Grade Soldier Upgrade Skill Books and special Seventh Grade Soldier Upgrade Skill Books, which could be used together with the Basic Internal Force Mental Cultivation Method.
Normally, of course, one would directly level up to Level 30, and then use the Basic Internal Force Mental Cultivation Method * Soul, which was practical and convenient. However, the Basic Internal Force Mental Cultivation Method * Soul was very rare in the game, and there weren't many non-Soul Basic Internal Force Mental Cultivation Methods either. Most players took the Soldier Upgrade route.
Most of these players were around Level 60, and they could only increase their strength through the Soldier Upgrade route. Therefore, the Seventh Grade Soldier Upgrade Skill Books were also necessary.
However, there was a big limit to obtaining Silver-grade soul-type items through the Tower of Civilization. Every player could only climb the Tower of Civilization twice per game year, and the quality of the soul-type items obtained after the Tower of Civilization had been explored would drop a lot.
At the same time, many players took the Tower of Civilization as a form of entertainment. It was very difficult for ordinary players to reach the higher floors and obtain rewards. On the other hand, if most players could reach the higher floors, the rewards would drop below Silver-grade.
In other words, most players couldn't obtain soul-type items through the Tower of Civilization.
For a moment, the fourth source of Silver-grade soul-type items that Yang Rui could think of was in the Foreign Plane.
During the Foreign Plane Tournament, Yang Rui was the first to enter the Cursed Land, and almost no items were dropped. However, when Yang Rui conquered the Foreign Plane's main city and completed the Four-legged Cauldron of Heaven and Earth mission, he obtained a lot of high-grade soul-type items.
However, there were no Foreign Plane Tournaments or similar events at the moment, so there was no way to enter the Foreign Plane from the normal game space. Therefore, there was no way to talk about obtaining soul-type items from the Foreign Plane.
In short, soul-type items were rare in the game, and soul-type basic internal cultivation methods had always been the focus of attention of many players. There were very few of them circulating in the market, and the same was true for Silver-grade and above soul-type items.
Under such circumstances, even if Yang Rui didn't lack soul-type items, it would be very difficult for him to obtain a large number of soul-type items in a short period of time.
Fortunately, Yang Rui still had a certain amount of soul-type items in stock, especially Silver-grade and above soul-type items. The two auction houses didn't sell many of them at all.
Currently, Bronze-grade soul-type items were still not outdated, and the most mainstream ones were Black-Iron soul-type items. Silver-grade soul-type items were already high-end goods and only accounted for a small portion of the market's circulation.
It was very difficult to source them, so Yang Rui immediately thought that he had to control them by reducing consumption.
Therefore, Yang Rui immediately sent a message to the Ethereal Ninja through the Imperial Guards, informing Xiaohui in Luoyang's Royal City to stop selling basic internal cultivation methods and all soul-type items above Silver-grade in the Three Kingdoms Civilization Region under her control.
At the same time, Yang Rui also sent people to Big Mountain City and sent the same order to Wako Uesugi through the information channel reserved in the Japanese trade route, ordering him to stop selling related items at the large auction houses in the Japanese civilization region.
The large auction houses were recognized by the system as public buildings in the game. Even during war, they were in a neutral state and wouldn't be too affected by war unless the ruler of the civilization region in which they were located banned them and turned them into ordinary buildings.
Usually, unless it was under special circumstances, the rulers of the various civilization regions wouldn't easily do so. For example, the Han Emperor Liu Xie in the Three Kingdoms Civilization Region definitely wouldn't ban the large auction houses in the Three Kingdoms Civilization Region for no reason.
In fact, Yang Rui also thought of some channels to obtain high-level soul-type items. For example, during the imperial wedding, Yang Rui had received many good things from various vassals and factions.
At that time, Cao Cao had given him the Heavenly Sword Soul and Yuan Shao had given him the Lunar Shadow Raging Fan Soul. Although there weren't many of them, their quality was very high.
The Heavenly Sword Soul and the Lunar Shadow Raging Fan Soul were both Earth-level soul-type items. Although Yang Rui hadn't figured out the wonders of them or put them to use, their quality was genuine.
Thinking of the wedding, Yang Rui invited Guo Jia and Xun You, who were in Chen Liu County City, over and asked them about the matter of sending envoys to the various player organizations.
"Reporting to my lord, the matter of sending envoys to the Inhuman organizations was indeed discussed by several of us before it was carried out.
At this time, although there are no top experts among the Inhuman group, their average strength has been increasing rapidly. This is something that several of us have experienced more deeply after we've realized it in the real world.
Therefore, the Inhuman group or the player group is bound to be a force that can't be ignored. Although there may be congenital deficiencies and many other shortcomings, it is undeniable that the overall strength of the largest player group is very strong.
My lord may not have carefully calculated, but just the core members of such a large player group number in the millions. It's not far from the total number of soldiers under my lord.
Such a strong force only lacks a commander with the highest level of strength as well as a very weak Liegeman base. Although it's impossible for them to stand on their own in a short period of time, they are still a force that can't be ignored.
If we can make good use of them, although it's difficult for the players to wholeheartedly follow us due to their personalities, they can still be a great help under special circumstances.
Moreover, the various player organizations have always cooperated with my lord. There's nothing wrong with us providing them with candidates for marriage. My lord, please understand. "
Faced with Yang Rui's inquiry, Guo Jia straightforwardly admitted to it. He admitted that several of them had discussed and sent envoys to the various player organizations and explained the reason for doing so.
After listening to Guo Jia's words, Yang Rui began to pay attention to the strength of the various player organizations. According to Guo Jia's calculations, the strength of the core player organizations should not be underestimated.
"Previously, Dragon Soul and Burning Snow have already paid a visit. I have already explained the relevant matters to them. This is the list of candidates that they have listed for marriage. I hope that you gentlemen can discuss this matter further.
As far as I am concerned, the marriage with the player organizations should be canceled. You are all people in the real world, so you should have some understanding of the concept of marriage in the real world. Marriage is not something that players can accept.
Moreover, marriage with players involves many secrets of our identities and situations. It's also not suitable for us to carry out such a marriage. I hope that you gentlemen can be careful.
In fact, strengthening ties with the player organizations can be done through various forms of cooperation, such as business cooperation … "
This time, Yang Rui did not directly reject the marriage that Guo Jia and the others had discussed. Instead, when he handed over the marriage list to the other party, he expressed his attitude first and let Guo Jia and the others reconsider.
After all, Guo Jia and the others had a limited amount of time in the real world. They had not gone out for any activities, so they did not have a clear understanding of the situation in the real world. It was normal for them to make some mistakes in their judgment.
"Yes!"
"Yes! If we have not thought it through, we will definitely reconsider … "
Guo Jia and Xun You both agreed. They had already begun to consider the two factors that Yang Rui had mentioned.
"In addition, Trace Dragon Soul and Burning Snow also brought a piece of news. I'm afraid that in the real world …"
After he finished talking about the marriage, Yang Rui described what Trace Dragon Soul had said about the influence of the Force's dispersion on the people in the real world. At the same time, he also introduced the background of the game "War of the Worlds" so that Guo Jia and Xun You could understand it more easily.
Guo Jia and Xun You were famous historical figures and came from the original world. Although they did not understand some of the concepts, they had a clear grasp of the seriousness of the situation. They discussed it with Yang Rui for a long time.
Guo Jia and Xun You agreed with Yang Rui's decision and plan. They believed that Yang Rui should do his best to make more preparations.
"The two of you can do your best to prepare for the wedding. Inform the Han Dynasty officials of this matter as soon as possible and publicize it in advance. Inform all the major and minor forces and try to get them to come.
At the same time, order all the troops to stop fighting with other forces so that they can achieve a state of truce before the wedding. It will be easier for all forces to teleport. "
After discussing for a while, Yang Rui said to Guo Jia and Xun You.
This time, Yang Rui did not have too many scruples. He was prepared to make the wedding as grand as possible so that he could "snatch" as many high-grade soul-type items as possible.
"Yes!"
Guo Jia and Xun You both replied.
During the discussion, Yang Rui had already explained to the two of them how to obtain the basic soul-type mental cultivation method and the soul-type items above the Silver grade. The two of them naturally understood the reason why Yang Rui wanted to hold a grand wedding.
"I will use the time when everyone is preparing for the wedding to enter the Tower of Civilization again and accumulate more soul-type items."
"Yes!"
"…"
After careful consideration and selection, apart from holding a grand wedding again, only the Tower of Civilization could provide Yang Rui with some high-grade soul-type items for the time being.
Therefore, after parting with Guo Jia and Xun You for two hours, Yang Rui rode his flying pet in the direction of Luoyang Imperial City and prepared to enter the Tower of Civilization again.
