Ye Qianfan was also shocked that in this weird world, there was such a weird competition!
Mr. Bai was not surprised at Ye Qianfan's surprise at all. Instead, he told him calmly: In fact, this so-called magic tree climbing competition is a project to select heroes, and it is held almost every ten years!
This year happens to be the 2000th year of magic, which is also an important year!
Generally, big things will happen in such round number years.
I still don’t know what will happen this year
But 2000 is also the year of hero selection every ten years. This year happens to be the Magic Tree Climbing Competition, so it’s fair!
And it is said that the top ten can get huge benefits!
What a huge benefit? Ye Qianfan raised his eyebrows and said, "What kind of magic tree climbing competition is this? Can I participate in it?"
Creatures of all races, as long as they live in the Misty Continent, have a certain IQ, and do not harm the Misty Continent, can participate! After Mr. Bai finished speaking, he looked at Ye Qianfan seriously and said: But Lord,
This magic tree climbing competition is quite dangerous!
Once you sign up, no matter whether you are disabled or dying, you will be sent directly to the Magic Tree Climbing Competition on the day it starts, and no cancellation is allowed!
And the most terrifying thing about this project is that the mortality rate is very high. Even in the year with the lowest mortality rate, the mortality rate reached over 85%!
Needless to say, the best year was when almost all the troops were wiped out and not a single contestant was left alive!
Is there no great wizard participating? Ye Qianfan wondered: Is this mortality rate a bit exaggerated?
The Great Magician cannot participate. Only combat professions below the advanced level can participate. There is no limit to non-combat professions! Mr. Bai continued: But in fact, the most dangerous part of the Magic Tree Climbing Competition is not what each level brings.
Danger! But the danger brought by greed!
Ye Qianfan cupped his fists: Please give me some advice?
Because the magic tree itself is infinitely high, or no one knows its height and the number of levels. Mr. Bai said: Therefore, there is no need to reach the last level before exiting, so as long as you reach the exit point,
You can exit safely!
Ye Qianfan didn't understand even more: In this case, the survival rate should be very high, right?
The problem is that there are certain restrictions on exiting the climbing competition. There is only one exit point every five floors. Mr. Bai said: And most people will overestimate their abilities!
Suppose that when you are on the first level, you feel a little reluctant, but you feel that you are okay.
But each subsequent floor is several times more dangerous than the previous one, so the last two or three floors are when the fatality rate is highest!
And most geniuses also fall due to overestimation of their abilities!
I see!
After listening to Mr. Bai's explanation, Ye Qianfan finally understood the terrifying nature of this demonic tree climbing.
Although it won't say, after participating, you must fight to the end!
but
It doesn't let you quit at any time.
Instead, an exit point is set up every five floors. Suppose you have climbed to the fifth floor. You feel that you can still fight on the sixth floor, but you have underestimated the danger of the seventh and eighth floors.
But once you miss the exit point on the fifth floor, you must climb to the tenth floor to exit!
at this time
Most people's abilities may not be enough to support them to reach the next exit point, and they will already die!
This is indeed a terrible design!
because
It takes advantage of the most irresistible part of human weakness!
greedy!!!
Anyway
Mr. Bai continued to persuade: A small businessman like me will never participate in the world of big guys. It is too dangerous!
Although I know Lord Ye that you are very capable, I am not derogatory, I sincerely praise you! But I still advise you, Lord Ye, to think clearly, this magic tree climbing competition is really dangerous!
I have seen many geniuses die in the magic tree over the years!
What a pity!
OK, I will think about it carefully.
Ye Qianfan nodded, and then turned to the helpless dwarf behind Mr. Bai and said: Then they
Oh, they actually had no work during this period of time, so I took this opportunity to hire them to build a branch of the Federation of Commerce for me! Only then did Mr. Bai mention the dwarves: You know,
The dwarves are top-notch races in terms of production, crafting, and construction! So if we don’t invite them here now, we will probably have nothing to do with us until other branches at the Demon Tree garrison receive the news!
Thank you for your hard work, Old Bai. Hearing this, Ye Qianfan nodded and said: So, Old Bai, what are you going to do?
I just want to build about ten hotels with the magic tree as the center. Lao Bai looked around Ye Qianfan's residential corridors: It would be pretty good to build them in the style of residential buildings like Lord Ye.
There is also the construction of two pubs and ten restaurants of different styles.
There are also weapon shops, potion shops, etc.
Anyway, this depends on the specific arrangement, that is
Lord Ye, your manor is a bit small. It would be much easier if it had the size of a small town!
Mr. Bai said with regret in his eyes: If there could be a small town here, the money we make could at least be doubled several times!
Upgraded to a small town Ye Qianfan rubbed his temples, then looked at Mr. Bai seriously and said: It's not impossible!
