After confirming that the survival points could start accumulating again, Sumo couldn't help but feel filled with joy.

In the original version of the game, the system had very limited channels for harvesting vitality. He had to personally participate in activities in order to harvest vitality.

This meant that after the subsequent expansion of the territory, he did not participate in many developments, and those points were missed.

Subsequently, the system was upgraded to version V1.1, and this pain point was solved to a certain extent.

The acquisition of survival points has become a host-centered, range-based harvest, which can be counted as long as the distance does not exceed the territory.

However, the change in scope has also led to the further subdivision of survival point acquisition.

Construction, items, technology, special.

Each type of survival point corresponds to a behavior pattern, and the difficulty of obtaining points has also changed.

Among them, construction points and technology points are relatively easy to obtain.

The former only needs to continuously build new buildings of various types and maintain the original scale to continuously expand, so that points can be collected stably on a regular basis.

The latter will be rewarded with points once breakthrough progress occurs when advancing each research.

Relying on survival points to promote research progress and supporting each other through self-research, the acquisition speed of science and technology points is the fastest among the four items, especially the research on energy stones, which can provide nearly a thousand science and technology points for every breakthrough.

Other items and special points are relatively difficult to obtain.

According to Sumo's long-term observation, the source of item points is very complicated. It is not just a factory assembly line that produces some small commodities in batches and can continuously earn points from them.

Item survival points require that the items produced must be used by people, and then points are provided based on the purpose, use time, use effect, importance, etc.

For example, if a flashlight is simply manufactured and piled in a warehouse, it will not gain points.

But if you go out patrolling with a flashlight at night, this behavior will trigger the underlying rules and generate points.

As for special points, the method of obtaining them is more complicated.

Until now, Soma has only found out that there are three main ways to obtain special points.

First, to form influence, as long as you have a certain reputation within the area, you will receive a large number of special points as a reward.

Second, if the mental state of the creatures within the range changes from sluggish to uplifting, and the physical state changes from sick to recovered, as long as there is a positive change, a certain number of points will be awarded.

Third, in wars with foreign races, points will be awarded regardless of winning or losing.

In addition to these three, there are occasionally other ways to give special points, but because the number is too small to form a sample, the rules cannot be studied yet.

But all in all, construction points, special points and item points must be easier to obtain the more people there are.

At this moment, Sumo opened the points panel.

Before leaving, he fired all the magic balls once. Now it stands to reason that the storage in the four magic balls should be empty.

But the fact is that the progress of the first construction sphere has now accumulated about one-fifth!

The gray-yellow liquid inside trembled slightly with the magic ball, causing shallow ripples to flow left and right.

"Something's wrong. The Boulder Territory only built three villages, and they gave so many. Isn't it too exaggerated?"

For 10% progress, the corresponding points are about two hundred points.

Just this one-fifth of the progress directly gave nearly 500 construction points.

It sounds like a small amount, but this is the number of points after breakdown, which is equivalent to 5,000 points in the previous version.

If all were used in the village below, it would definitely bring about earth-shaking changes.

In addition, in the next three orbs, except for the insignificant increase in technology, the items and special orbs also had a visible increase, about 10%.

This discovery immediately made Sumo realize that there must be rules for obtaining survival points that he didn't know.

"Could it be said that the acquisition of points, the emergence of new forces and the environment are also closely related?"

"The more stable and peaceful the environment, the more difficult it is to obtain points."

"But the more chaotic and disorderly the environment, the easier it is to obtain points?"

Soma thought to himself.

The same thing is building residential buildings and defense facilities. There is no reason why the construction in the Boulder Territory is better than that in the Tianyuan Territory.

If they are regarded as the same behavior, then the only variable that affects the points obtained is the environment.

Suppose the environment score of Tianyuan Territory is 100 points and that of Boulder Territory is 1 point.

The emergence of a few residential buildings can only increase this number by 0.01 out of 100 points, or even a smaller number, and cannot bring significant changes to the overall environment.

However, placed on the boulder territory, a few stone houses that can accommodate seven or eight people can bring immediate changes to the territory, and the 1 point will directly increase by 0.5, or even double.

This is reflected in the points, the latter must be much more than the former.

"It should be true. From nothing to something and from something to something, there must be more new forces produced from nothing."

"This is a qualitative change, which is more important than the latter's quantitative change."

Another rule for gaining points was discovered, but Sumo didn't feel much excitement, but instead felt a little worried.

If it is what he thinks, the more stable the environment, the harder it will be to obtain points.

In the future, Tianyuan Territory will continue to develop, and it can be foreseen that the speed of gaining points by staying in the territory will only become slower and slower.

Only by going out and triggering changes in the outside world can the point accumulation speed be restored to normal levels.

“No wonder the new version has launched a mission system. Now that I think about it, it should be a reminder to me to go out and do more influential things in order to gain points.

If you really expect to stay in the territory and gain points through step-by-step development, it will only drag down the progress and make it slower and slower!"

After thinking about this, Sumo thought to himself and realized that this trip was indeed the right one.

After the initial period of large-scale infrastructure construction, the development of the Tianyuan Territory has stabilized. The focus of construction has temporarily shifted from the territory to the surrounding Qinggang City, resulting in not many construction points.

It is also difficult to harvest other items and special points in large quantities from the citizens who live a prosperous life and are in good health.

After all, there are only a few hundred thousand people. Even if you add the two million gophers in Qinggang City, the points that can be provided are still very limited.

As for the scientific and technological survival points, the institute's progress must be to completely destroy all the territories in the New World, and it will be able to accumulate enough magic spheres about once a month.

However, technology cannot bring much benefit in a short period of time. Even if there are frequent iterations of technology, it cannot directly affect the results of the two gambling battles.

Therefore, if the point harvesting position is changed to the boulder territory, the income will increase significantly in the short term.

Especially the most important special points, a nine-digit population doesn’t know how many they can provide!

Of course, the prerequisite for seizing life is that Soma must first participate in the process of influence, and then the proportion of acquisition can be defined based on the degree of participation.

Otherwise, no matter how large the population is, he will not be able to get any vitality from it.

"Unfortunately, the special space that was pulled there before was most likely not formed in the end, which is why everything is like a tower in a mirror, and the system cannot extract vitality conversion points from it."

"Otherwise, I can accumulate at least hundreds of thousands of points in twenty years."

Having said that, Soma was just thinking about it.

If that special space really takes shape, it means that he and the wasteland world have completely parted ways.

The game would most likely kick him out of the player ranks, and hundreds of thousands of points would not change anything at that time.

But when I realized this point-earning rule, the time actually came just in time.

These days, Sumo has been thinking about what needs to be done in the next limited time.

At present, the development of Tianyuan Territory has reached a bottleneck period.

Recruiting the population in a short period of time will not lead to an expansion of strength, but will continue to drag down development progress.

This can be seen from the Yusanjia territory. Although the population has reached an exaggerated nine figures, the development of basic industries is not as fast as imagined.

For the sake of people's livelihood, the territory must continue to invest a lot of money and time in building ordinary buildings.

For example, in residential buildings, even if 20 people live in one house, 100 million people still need to build 5 million private houses.

For example, if there is one toilet for every 500 people, there would be 200,000 toilets.

Such an exaggerated figure represents a massive investment of resources and almost no progress in development.

If we are really going to encounter a disaster or encounter an alien invasion, do we have to rely on these houses and toilets to take refuge?

The answer is no.

As far as the current situation is concerned, the population should not exceed two million people at most, so that development and people's livelihood can be well balanced.

"The most important thing before me at the moment, and the one that must be implemented immediately, is a total of three things, all centered around two gambling battles."

"First, find a way to improve the overall strength of each human territory, so that the middle and lower horses must not be significantly weaker than the aliens before the betting battle begins. In this way, no matter how the rules of the two betting battles change, at least the starting line will be the same, and there will be no

It creates a big and difficult disadvantage right from the start.”

"Second, the more points you accumulate, the better, especially the most applicable special survival points. As long as you have enough points in hand, even if you encounter some unsolvable troubles during the gambling battle, you can use the points to break the game.

."

"Third, giving up the two gambling battles can successfully end the fantasy of the game. In addition to the gambling battle between humans and aliens, there must be a war that will radiate the entire wasteland. The scale will only be larger than in the ruins of the future. Perhaps the real victory or defeat is still unknown.

Before we can decide who is better in a gambling battle, it will be decided in the outside world!"

Sumo quietly watched the clouds and mists rolling in the distance, the red sun rising into the sky, and the time for the version to go online was getting closer and closer.
