Chapter 174 Mother's Nest
ww.x.om “Now prepare to witness the miracle!”
As the split body was thrown into the pit by Radamantis, we immediately felt a muffled sound coming from under the ground, but then the surrounding ground suddenly began to tremble. From above, I had already seen the split body at the bottom of the pit expanding rapidly, and many huge roots stretched out on it, like octopus tentacles penetrated into the nearby land. The vibration of the ground came from this.
The growth rate of the split body is really unusually fast. Although I have heard of the growth rate of the noisy nest, the legendary speed is not as exaggerated as before. Besides, the environment in this underworld is obviously growing from the noisy nest, but this noisy nest still maintains such an exaggerated growth rate, which is abnormal in itself.
"Is this what the powders you just sprinkled?" I asked in surprise.
Radamantis said proudly: "I dare not say anything else. I am an expert in cultivating the Styx."
While looking at the proud Radamantis, I wiped the cold sweat from my head, and muttered in my heart: "Does this wife, Polesphone, have the talent to be a teacher? A regional demon like Radamantis can be cultivated into a gardening master. Can't all the demons under Hades be from gardeners, right? Of course, Radamantis is a demon king after all. Although his gardening skills are good, the plants grown are a little bit curious."
I was wondering in my heart, and suddenly I saw the split body of the noisy nest in the pit in front finally growing out of the ground, but the growth characteristics of this thing are obviously different from the normal noisy nest. The normal noisy nest should grow a bare trunk about four or five meters high from the ground, and then a huge meat ball with a diameter of two or three meters will grow at the top. After that, the meat ball will be beating like a heart and continue to produce noisy Banshee until the number it can support reaches its limit.
Originally, the normal noisy nest should have been so long, but the one in front of me not only grew very fast, but also looked very strange. After this noisy nest grew from under the ground, it was not a main trunk, but four main trunks grew. It did not grow straight upward, but bent in four different directions, and finally pierced back into the soil and formed four wooden rings exposed on the ground.
"What's the situation? Is it a normal reaction?" I asked at Radamantis next to me.
Radamantis nodded and said, "Don't worry, this is normal, and it grows very well. Generally, when you can divide three main trunks at this point, it will be successful. If you grow four main trunks like this, you will develop very well. I have planted them so many times before, and I have encountered one without roots again and again. The Styx's Banshee who was bred at that time is completely the best, and I still keep them with you now."
I nodded and asked, "So how long will it take for this to grow the Styx?"
"The Styx Banshee didn't grow on this. This is just the first step. You can see what I do later." Radamantis knew that it was not easy to explain, so he simply let me watch.
In fact, the development speed of this noisy nest is indeed fast enough. After about two minutes of use, the fifth branch suddenly stretched out in the center of the four main trunks that the noisy nest split. Radamantis knew that I would misunderstand, so he said directly: "Don't worry, this is not the main trunk. It's just a flower path."
"Flower Path?"
"Well, you'll know."
With Radamantis' prompt, I found that the branch grew from under the ground and then stopped after growing to more than one meter high. Then a green spore appeared at the front of the branch. The spore began to expand rapidly like an inflatable balloon. It took only ten seconds to grow a huge bud with a diameter of nearly half a meter. Then suddenly it seemed like an explosion. The entire bud suddenly burst out and sprayed out a large amount of golden light particles. These light particles flew about four or five meters high. The coverage range was only about five meters, but there were many light particles and the falling speed was very slow. It looked like a star fell to the ground, very beautiful.
As the flowers fully bloomed, we saw a huge blood-red flower hanging on the tip of the branches, and the center of the flower was a few golden stamens stretching out, looking extremely beautiful.
"What should I do? Do I have to pollinate and let it grow the Styx?" I asked as I looked at the flower.
I said it casually, but I didn't expect that Radamantis actually nodded and said, "You are right. You just need pollination. But you don't use pollen. You still have a lot of noisy nests there, right?"
I nodded and asked, "What are you doing? Do you still need it?"
"Yes, I'll get it all out. I'll use it."
I nodded and asked the Kirin Warrior to quickly move out all the noisy nests and pile them outside. Radamantis checked one by one when the Kirin Warrior was moving out, and then directed the Kirin Warrior to open the noisy nests. Some of them were thrown together by his command of the Kirin Warrior to the noisy nests that were about to be exhausted before, which seemed useless. The rest were piled up together by his command.
Radamantis was picking up and suddenly screamed. "Oh my God! Mother's nest! How could you have this?"
Of course I looked over when I heard Radamantis's cry, but I saw Radamantis holding one of the purple noisy nests there in shock and screaming.
"That was also found by me and other noisy nests. What's wrong? Is there any problem?"
"Of course there is no problem, it's just that this thing is very precious and super difficult to find. Don't you know it?"
"I don't know. What? Is this thing useful?"
Radamantis said seriously: "There are many uses. The first one is to wash some things."
“Bake some?”
"Hey, you are an adventurer at least, don't you know this? The word "wash" was invented by you adventurers."
I asked tentatively after hearing Radamantis' words: "Are you talking about washing all the attribute points that have been assigned on the player and then reassigning them?"
"Yes, that's it."
"My God!" I was shocked when I heard this answer.
Wash it! This thing is a special business project that can only be seen in the private servers of some online games in the past, and not all games have it.
When players first enter the game, they often do not understand the game, are not familiar with skills, and do not understand the specific effects of attribute points, so that the attribute allocation is not so accurate. Many players like to experience it first when the game is open, that is, participate in the game in-game test or the game public beta. In fact, it is to enter in advance and get familiar with the matching effects of various profession attributes in the game first, so that when the game is officially opened, their characters can directly have the best attribute allocation plan. They plan their future upgrades and transfer routes in advance, what skills to learn, what skills to give up, and what tasks to do to brush a certain piece of equipment. These can be figured out in advance when the internal test and public beta are internal tests.
Although most games will delete all internal test and public beta information after actually starting operation, that is, players' accounts and levels in these two tests cannot be retained. Although doing so seems to allow players participating in the test and players who have not participated in the test to start the game on the same starting line, it is a setting to ensure the fairness of the initial stage of the game to the greatest extent. However, in fact, even if players who have participated in the internal test and public beta reapply for an account, their advantages are still very obvious.
Players who have participated in the test understand the role of attribute points. Even if their points allocation is not the most reasonable, they are at least reasonable. Moreover, they understand a rough task process, so they can level up the most efficiently. In the early stage of the game, there are few open scenes and concentrated player levels. When the leveling points are dense, these players who have participated in the test can use their knowledge to stand out from many players first. Once they leave the mainstream player group, you can occupy a large amount of game resources by themselves, because other players are still squeezing low-level leveling zones, but you can already go to the intermediate zone to level up. Others are busy grabbing monsters and will definitely drag down each other's upgrade speed, but you can dominate a large area of leveling zones by one person. This speed is definitely much faster than others. When the mainstream player group squeezes into the intermediate zone, you can already go to the advanced zone. This is to take one step first, and others will always follow you and eat dust. Even if you are not developed, you can't do it.
However, even players who have participated in the test do not say that the attribute points can be allocated as accurately. Although in order to test the entire game during in-game testing, a multi-fold experience mode that is completely different from the normal mode is usually turned on, that is, players upgrade very quickly and can use a very short period of time to test the complete game history.
Although players have mastered the attribute points of the game characters in this process and matched points, the problem is that the equipment that explodes in the game and the tasks you receive, and the various rewards you encounter unexpectedly are often not fixed. The biggest difference between online games and stand-alone games is its randomness. Especially a super game like Zero that is almost equal to an independent world. Even if you play it ten thousand times, I can guarantee that you will never have the same attributes twice. Various unexpected tasks and various sudden situations will make you take a different path, which will affect your series of attribute changes.
The final result of these different attribute changes is to interfere with your attribute balance. For example, your attribute points were originally allocated according to the agility setting, which means that your attributes are mainly focused on agility and attack power. However, when you enter the game for a while, your character suddenly explodes and encounters a job transfer task of a hidden profession. This task can transform you into an extremely powerful mt, that is, the team leader tank. As the team leader tank, defense and health are the key attributes, and your previous attributes are all added to agility and attack, which obviously means that the attributes are not up to par. However, this hidden profession is very powerful. Even if you change your job with your current attributes, your future development will be much higher than your current achievements. At this time, most people will definitely directly change jobs into this more promising profession, but the problem is that although you have become more powerful, your attributes have become your eternal pain, because if you directly go to the mt position to add attributes, it will definitely be several times stronger than now.
Do you think you are depressed in this situation? If someone suddenly tells you at this time, there is a way to wash out all the attribute points you have obtained so far and reassign them yourself once, do you think you are happy?
So the ability to wash points is absolutely amazing. Of course, what is mentioned above is just a more extreme example, but most players actually have more or less attribute point allocation problems. This problem is often caused by later equipment attributes or certain rewards received unexpectedly. Although these problems are not very serious, they do not affect the continued game. But they just make people feel very depressed. Many times, everyone will think, it would be great if I added points like that!
Because everyone has similar ideas, it is definitely a super happy thing to be able to wash some points. Moreover, the later the matter of washing some points, the more obvious the effect is. Because as the player increases, the character's attributes will gradually be fixed. It is like a person's interests and hobbies will be fixed as he grows up. The attribute points and skills of advanced players are basically fixed. If you can reassign attributes at this time, then on the basis of the total amount of their own attribute points, their combat power can be increased by at least 20%. This is a very impressive bonus.
"Radamantis, you said that this purple noisy nest can be washed. Can any player really wash it? Will the attributes obtained before be lost? Will all reward attributes be retained? Will the attribute points be lost? "
"Of course, of course, I won't lose it, but it's not necessarily true. At least I know there can be a way to deliberately make some people lose their attribute points. However, as long as there is no external interference, it is very safe in itself. The conversion process itself will not cause accidents. If something happens, it will be caused by the outside world."
"Tell me how the specific change method is, and what is the accident?"
"This purple thing is called a mother nest. After planting it, it will not grow a noisy nest, but will grow a low large sarcoma. This large sarcoma is called an evolutionary sac, which will actively swallow the first life body close to it. If you want to wash it, just take the initiative to approach it and let it eat you. But don't worry, you won't die or downgrade. This sac will decompose you and then synthesize it. In this process, you will receive a prompt to reassign your attributes, and even modify your appearance. It is a modification without limiting the scope. Even if you want to change yourself to a monster that no one has seen before. Of course, your own body size will not change before and after the modification. After that, it will take about five or six hours of reorganization, and the sac will wither quickly, and you can come out of it."
"So, this maternity can only be used once, right?"
"Yes." Radamantis said: "The mother nest is actually a parasite, and the flesh sac outside is just an eggshell. It reorganizes the body for you just to have stronger self-protection ability. In this way, after it symbiotically with you, it will be like it has a stronger survival guarantee. But you don't have to worry, the mother nest itself is a plant-based creature. Although it symbiotically with you, its dominant thought is entirely yours. For a plant-based creature, it is enough to survive. It doesn't want to control anything."
"So what happened to the accident you mentioned?"
"Accidents are accidental interference. Because you need to reorganize after being decomposed. If the flesh sac is attacked before being completely decomposed, you will die once. But you will not lose attribute points, just once. However, once the mother starts to allocate points, from this time to when you completely recombined and break out of the shell, in this process, if the mother is attacked, you will not only die once, but also reduce the attribute points. The specific reduction depends on the time when the mother is attacked. If you are attacked before you allocate attributes, you will become a super waste person with only 1 in all basic attributes left. If it is after this, the longer the time you pass, the fewer attribute points you lose."
"I understand. What you mean is that after the mother nest decomposes you, your attributes are equal to being completely gone, and then the mother nest will instill invert you in reverse after you choose to complete it. If the synthesis is not completed, it means that the attribute points cannot be instilled back, and the earlier you are attacked, the less you will absorb. Is that what it means?"
"Yes, that's it. So accidents also exist, but the problem is not big. Just gather some reliable people to protect their mother nests during the reorganization process. Anyway, the whole process is only four or five hours, and it's not very long."
After listening to Radamantis' explanation, I thought about it for a little while. There are only twelve purple maternal nests. If they are all used to wash some, they can only be used for twelve people. If this is the case, they can only be used for the main force of the stronger guild. The more advanced the opportunity, the more obvious the player's use effect. After all, a person like Kris Dena improves his strength by 20% and an ordinary player improves his strength by 20%, the effect is very different! Of course, how to use it specifically depends on the other abilities of this maternal nest. Radamantis said that this maternal nest has several uses, and helping people wash some is just one of them.
"You just said that this is just one purpose of the maternal nest, so what about the others?" I asked Radamantis again.
