I Don't Agree to the Terms-Chapter 592 - 322: June, Sky Falls
"Half a year has flashed by, and during these six months, Gu Shanhai has produced a total of thirty-six batches of equipment, the quantity of which has risen from the original half a million to three million. It can only be said that these saints have really invested a substantial amount of blood and sweat. However, with the incentives, the results have been very good.
According to the data calculated by Gu Shanhai, half a year’s time would be enough to tear the entire Adventure King world apart due to the gravitational pull of the Great Void. By the time the Great Void actually reached the position of the Adventure King world, there would be nothing to see, because the world would have already become fragments.
The saints’ calculations of the Great Void data were a complete mess, never once accurate.
With such gravitational force, even if the world’s weight was increased, it would be of no use; if the world was torn apart, being heavy would mean nothing.
Now, with the help of players’ various peculiar props, skills, and talents, although there are frequent anomalies in different places, at least the world still exists, so we shouldn’t ask for more.
During this period, the Holy Divine Sect Leader sent him several... Child Skills. Gu Shanhai now suspects that the other party might have a skill specializing in Child Skill, otherwise how could it be that what he found was always this?
Or perhaps the rules varied with different versions. Now it’s even more excessive, sometimes three to five volumes, sometimes more than ten. It was just like dealing with a Child Skill wholesaler.
Later, Gu Shanhai discovered that it really was because the merchant player had made a connection with the Holy Divine Sect Leader, who had been snared by the use of Child Skill.
Perhaps it was because Gu Shanhai was simply stubborn, but he must have really liked Child Skill; otherwise, why would you use Child Skill to save your life every time your assassination attempt failed? Once or twice might have been accidental, but if it happened every time, it indicated a special affection for Child Skill. So, every time you attempted assassination, you’d bring one or even several different copies of Child Skill with you, ensuring a safe escape in case of failure.
After pondering, the Holy Divine Sect Leader felt that it made sense, so the two of them connected. 𝕗𝐫𝚎𝗲𝘄𝐞𝕓𝐧𝕠𝘃𝕖𝐥.𝐜𝚘𝚖
If Gu Shanhai could find this player, he would certainly hang him up and beat him.
He wondered where on earth such a large amount of Child Skill came from, all sold to such an easy mark as the Holy Divine Sect Leader.
But looking at these different versions of Child Skill, most of them, to Gu Shanhai’s eye, actually had poor sales prospects. All required the limitations of a Child Body and the prohibition of bodily corruption, which players did not appreciate at all.
There were certainly cultivation techniques with similar properties and effects that didn’t have these restrictions, and at most, they required a prerequisite skill and attribute.
"If this keeps up, the Child Skills and Golden Bell Shield Iron Cloth Shirt in my possession will soon be derived into Martial Arts Techniques second only to the art of war," Gu Shanhai said somewhat helplessly.
This thing was truly special. Continuous stacking and plugging of gaps ultimately resulted in the most advantageous martial arts skill. Even the lowest forms of martial arts had the tiniest advantages that, if extracted, could become fodder for progress.
There were advantages, though. At least he had begun to figure out the Divine Skills of these three categories of martial arts, and maybe with a few more attempts, he could succeed.
Now he was actually eager for the Holy Divine Sect Leader to send more his way; he could only hope the players would step up.
"Eh? Why is more equipment being sent over..." Gu Shanhai noticed that another batch of equipment had been sent by adventurers. With a sweep of his Spiritual Sense, he saw that this time five million pieces of equipment had been delivered.
"Hopefully the Silver Saint is still doing well..." Gu Shanhai made a quip.
Each piece of equipment corresponded to a player who had performed exceptionally well, and the corresponding reward was a Divine Favored Skill. With Gu Shanhai and his Heart Demon Dao Soldiers available to help, the Silver Saint really had to take matters into his own hands.
At first glance, it seemed as though five million players receiving rewards was an easy feat. In reality, nearly six hundred billion players were all striving to save the Adventure King world together, so five million winners truly weren’t many, especially since the number of players was still increasing.
Mainly, if you put it on the forums saying that five million people won, anyone would think about giving it a try. If there were only five winners, everyone would indeed be less enthusiastic, but with millions of rewards, all genuinely distributed and the number of rewards constantly increasing, plus six times a month, who wouldn’t be pleased?
Another factor was the display of rewarded players showing off their skills and equipment on the forums, each one gloating to the fullest.
The reason was simple. If you acquired a Divine Skill, you might keep it hidden, but if you acquired three to five, flaunting the least valuable one satisfied vanity splendidly, moreover, you would not be the only one boasting, simply going with the flow.
This way, the stimulation for the players grew even greater.
Some areas suspected of being permanently changed were even eliminated by the players, all for the purpose of accumulating more Contribution Value to improve their rankings further.
Besides the exceptionally performing players, they could also accumulate Contribution Value on their own and, after the event ended, seek out the saints to exchange it.
It was naturally a case of not begrudging scarcity but inequality. Everyone had their share, but others worked harder and therefore received additional rewards, while you, although not as good as them, as long as you did your best and the crisis was averted, would be able to exchange for rewards later, and everyone would have a share.
Of course, if the crisis couldn’t be overcome and the world was destroyed, naturally, all thoughts of wanting anything would be for naught.
"Dusk Saint Lord, this is the latest batch of equipment," said the arriving adventurer, looking somewhat weary.
