It was already nine o'clock in the evening when Fugui and his party completed the immigration formalities. Before leaving, everyone except Bailang and Sulf received a gold coin of 200,000 U.S. dollars, with a purchase limit of five coins. (Gold coins cannot be traded with each other)
After getting on the shuttle bus, there was no one else around. Bailang asked Fukimaru a question, and the latter replied:
"Boss, you were once a winner in the Garden of Eden. This is your second time to enter, so there are no benefits for newcomers. Only those of us who enter for the first time have this opportunity, which is considered a change of life. And the high exchange price
, and restricts those ordinary people, further widening the gap. Only by recharging can you become stronger! Each gold coin is a piece of capital for survival."
Bailang thought that there were 18 gold coins stored together with the 'gyro'. His starting point was higher than that of ordinary gold-earning players, so he didn't feel that he was at a disadvantage in an instant.
"What are the uses of gold coins? And how to obtain them?"
Fukimaru explained: "When you make a contract with a certain 'spirit', this identity card will be connected to the other party. Next, your daily negative emotions, your own desires, the joy when your desires are satisfied, and the joy of fighting
Fanaticism, pain and torture will all be absorbed by this card and accumulate slowly. After reaching 1 scale, you can either withdraw power from the 'spirit' transaction or go to the monastery and exchange it for a gold coin."
Bailang said: "So the full scale is 100 gold coins, which is a 'blessing' from the spirit, or an opportunity to leave?"
After he learned the conditions for leaving the Garden of Eden, the paradise also refreshed a reminder. Once Bailang collected 1 evil spirit blessing and chose to leave the Garden of Eden, it meant that he had voluntarily ended the mission and returned to the paradise space.
This mission may be time-limited, but he can unilaterally terminate it at any time and return to the paradise. The degree of freedom is much higher than that of Level 1. If you can't continue playing, just Esc. At least the safety is guaranteed and you will not die tragically on the spot. The penalty for failing the mission is
It's another matter.
"That's true. But usually no one would choose to leave when they collect a 'blessing'. A blessing can only be exchanged for 5 years of life, and low-level limb healing. However, appearance is much cheaper. Ordinary people can become a person with a single blessing.
Handsome men and beautiful women, but peerless looks require more. Permanent beauty requires three blessings." Fukimaru reported the latest trading conditions.
Bai Lang has no interest in health or appearance. He is already the most handsome boy, except for his life span: "In terms of life span, is there an upper limit for redemption?"
If given the chance, he would obviously try to increase his lifespan. Everything about demihuman blood is good, but if you don't extend your lifespan, you will die of old age naturally. He may be able to increase the upper limit of his lifespan in this world.
"There are no restrictions to speak of. The maximum life span of each person is 10 blessings, which is 50 years. Whenever a blessing is consumed, you can come to the Garden of Eden to replenish it at any time. The longest-lived person on earth today is Ameirika Ten
An elder in a large family. He has participated in the construction of this miracle city since the discovery of Eden, and has formed a friendship with ancient evil spirits. He is now 180 years old, and has been blessed with 10 lifespans.
If nothing happens, he will continue to survive and live as long as Eden. By the way, the queen in Buckingham Palace across the ocean also has 10 blessings."
Bailang instantly thought of a certain prince who had reigned for 67 years. According to the rules of this world, that was guaranteed to last for 117 years! It was also a miracle.
"Don't their sons have any ideas? According to the blessings of Eden, these people not only live long, but also have health and youth, right?"
Is there anything more terrifying than a 'father' who is in his prime, physically strong, good-looking, full of energy, who controls the family business, keeps taking concubines and creating people 24 hours a day, so as to increase your competition?
A hundred years later, you, who were originally an only child, will share an inheritance with no end in sight on the timeline with one hundred brothers and sisters, eight hundred nieces and nephews, and thousands of grandchildren. How wonderful is it?
Fukimaru nodded with deep understanding: "More than 50% of those who received blessings in Eden did not die well, and were assassinated by their children, brothers, lovers, and subordinates. Long life and health represent endless 'energy',
This is the most despairing thing. Therefore, some people call the blessing of Eden the curse of the evil god. Only the strong can seize the throat of fate, trample on the curse, and survive for a long time."
"That's right!" Bailang nodded.
Originally, the gang leader would abdicate after another ten years, but now there is no hope for another two hundred years. What should we do? The only way to break the rigidity of class is to backstab with justice.
Brother Su once said: I have not come to bring peace to the earth, but to bring war on the earth! For I have come to alienate a man from his father, a daughter from her mother, a daughter-in-law from her mother-in-law. A man’s enemy is his own home.
Nice person!!!
"Continue to talk about the uses of gold coins..."
"In addition to accumulating 'blessings', the accumulated marks in the card can be exchanged for gold coins, which can be used to trade tokens of different spirits. The senior people in this city are only human beings in nature. What is really scary about them is the extraordinary power given by different spirits.
Power. Everyone who signs a contract can directly draw power from the enshrined spirit. But a single power is far from enough and may even be restrained, and gold coins can be traded for the 'abilities' of other spirits. Different extraordinary intelligences, prices
Not the same."
Bailang was very interested in this: "After purchasing it, can you control it permanently?"
Fukimaru shook his head: "No, the superpower is entrusted in the token, it has a limit on the number of times, and it is a consumable."
"You really know how to do business. Apart from this, are there any other uses for gold coins?"
"Injuries caused by extraordinary power can be treated in special places by paying gold coins; using gold coins, you can go to the divine realms of different spirits and enjoy top-notch services; gold coins can also buy insurance and even be resurrected from the dead."
Bai Lang interrupted: "The last one, let me focus on how to resurrect and how much does it cost?"
This chapter is not finished yet, please click on the next page to continue reading the exciting content! "Each gold coin is essentially the power of a 'spirit', which can be used to buy extraordinary power or to resist harm. In the monastery,
By paying enough gold coins, it can be converted into 'defense' in proportion to protect you at all times. When you encounter damage from the outside world, it can be offset until the power of this defense is exhausted. This kind of defense is usually used as a 'blessing'
To settle the settlement, the poor use gold coins, which is an abridged version. As for resurrection, the same is true. Five blessings can burn the status of the sacrificer. After being killed in Eden, he will not die directly, but
Reversed to the burned state."
"Can this kind of blessing bring out Eden?"
"No, all tokens will become ordinary items after leaving Eden. Regardless of whether they are placed in a defensive force field or resurrected, they will all be ineffective. Only health, lifespan, and appearance can be preserved."
It is becoming more and more like the krypton gold version of Earth Online. Players are locked into the human state and cannot become stronger. They can only widen the gap by recharging to purchase "special props", and there is also a "resurrection coin" setting.
…
The convoy finally stopped in District 11 of Eden.
Among the 53 major districts, District 11 corresponds to the eastern part of Asia. It is dominated by neon immigrants, mixed with about 20% of North and South sticks. This is a pan-Chinese cultural radiation circle, and the architectural styles along the way are also 'modern and classical'.
The mixed style has a Chinatown feel. The authentic Chinatown is in District 17, where overseas Chinese gather.
Before Bailang took control of Fukimaru, the company behind Tanaka's team had already sent many groups of employees to District 11 in advance to manage the community gangs here, signed a large number of civilians with high rewards, and purchased a building.
The home base of the 'God-making Project'.
According to Fukimaru's introduction, newcomers have a five-day protection period after entering Eden. During this period, they can frequently enter and leave 53 areas to try to find jobs. During the protection period, if they are accidentally attacked in the safe area, Eden will offset the damage;
After five days, if you don't have the determination to take risks and fight hard, just find a job and live a low-key life. If you are accidentally killed, there will be no compensation, but a 'revenge mark' will be carried out for you.
Bailang made a comparison and found that his protection period was only 36 hours. After this time, unlike the lower-level civilians, he would be marked with the 'minimum hunting tag (worth)', and anyone in any non-safe zone could attack him.
power. He can also counterattack with unlimited freedom.
(Freedom is the most basic civil right in the City of God.)
The income from killing a Bailang ranges from about 1 to 5 gold coins. If Bailang's "mark (worth)" continues to deepen, the income from killing him will continue to rise, with no upper limit.
Every 'player' who has a 'contract' with him essentially not only represents himself, but also the manifestation of the power of the 'spirit' behind him. The more people are blessed by their own spirit, the stronger their strength will be, and the benefits of hunting him will be
The higher it is, the greater the benefits the spirit behind it can gain.
For example, every person who joins the fight is essentially a bet thrown on the gambling table by the evil spirits behind him. The stronger the person, the higher the stakes.
Believing in Freddy's chip A, he killed the bet B in Jason's hand. Freddy won the game and made a huge profit. A also increased in value and encountered Jason's 'Revenge Mark (Bounty)'. What will happen next
There is a steady stream of bets to hunt down A, which not only increases one's own value, but also wins chips from the opponent's spirit for the spirit behind it.
After a night's rest, the game officially begins. And Bailang's safe time is only the last 24 hours.
Within these 24 hours, he must figure out all the basic rules, adapt to this world, master a series of technologies spawned by the 'Wandering Spirit', and finally determine the cultivation and growth route of the 'Gyro'.
Compared with fighting a bloody path in the Garden of Eden alone, in this city where evil spirits are seriously involved, raising a 'spirit' is ridiculously difficult, even harder than raising a baby. He would rather challenge to raise 100 people in a month.
