Chapter 2000 What the hell just happened?!

Chapter 2000 What the hell just happened?!

As for why Fang Yun suddenly set his sights on the divine beast.

The viewers in the live stream already had some guesses about this.

As mentioned before, with the emergence of more and more fully-red special pets, the transcendent status of mythical beasts has long been replaced, and they have become nothing more than mascots.

In other words, it has lost its practical value.

But there is one exception.

That's right, it's map-making!

As we all know, treasure hunting is a high-frequency, low-profit activity that relies solely on high volume to make a living.

Because of the existence of gameplay mechanics.

This leads to treasure map players often choosing to go naked, carrying only a stainless steel weapon and a fully-equipped, high-damage pet to frantically cycle through the map.

But the problem is.

You can use stainless steel weapons; as long as you're not aiming for the absolute best, it won't cost much.

But the baby can't.

Babies have a lifespan mechanism.

Even if each battle only costs 1 point of lifespan.

However, in the high-frequency treasure map battles, the loss of 1 point of lifespan in each battle can accumulate to a terrifying amount!

This can be seen from the fact that Ribs Tang's Hibiscus Fairy only had 174 life points left.

This is why many people either choose a weak pet to fight when farming treasure maps, or they don't even bring a pet and rely solely on their character's damage output.

Not taking care of a baby can indeed avoid the problem of shortened lifespan.

But a new problem has arisen: the characters who usually farm treasure maps don't have high cultivation levels.

Without a baby, it's difficult for players to end the battle in one round.

If the battle cannot be ended in one round, the efficiency of the entire treasure map will be severely reduced, directly affecting the overall subsequent gains!

This creates a dilemma.

Taking care of a baby will rapidly deplete your lifespan, although you can replenish it with food.

However, if you don't feed them expensive Osmanthus Pills, feeding them longevity noodles, beans, or fruits can quickly restore a large amount of lifespan.

However, the poisoning properties of these two items, which randomly reduce attributes, can render a pet useless.

You can leave it out.

Most players who engage in map-based combat are unable to end a battle within one round.

This is really quite a headache.

At this point, if you could have a mythical beast to fight in the map, then all the above problems would be solved!

The divine beast itself possesses exceptional qualities.

Especially when allocating all points to full strength or full magic, they can usually deal explosive damage.

Mythical beasts themselves possess the characteristics of immortality and perfect loyalty.

This means that players not only don't need to worry about lifespan, but they also don't need to see a witch doctor, saving players a lot of time.

In other words.

With this thing, you'll never have to worry about not being able to finish a battle in one round again.

Moreover, there's no need to spend an extra penny on the baby, and you can even save time on the witch doctor, allowing you to fully dedicate yourself to the map-making project—it's a true perpetual motion machine!

Therefore.

For all map-hunting players.

A full set of stainless steel armor plus a mythical beast with all-out damage output is practically their lifelong dream!

pity.

You can still find cheap stainless steel if you pick and choose.

But mythical beasts are different.

This thing is inherently high-class; forget about getting a bargain, you're lucky if you can even buy it at all.

The problem is that the map makers themselves don't have money.

Considering that a mythical beast now costs at least two thousand yuan, and a slightly more popular one can cost three or four thousand or even four or five thousand yuan.

It would take a map-farming expert countless hours to save up enough money, and even if he did, he wouldn't be willing to use it to buy a mythical beast.

Therefore, this becomes an unsolvable problem.

Mythical beasts + stainless steel are indeed the ultimate configuration for graphic designers.

However, most map enthusiasts will never enjoy this configuration.

It's not that they can't afford it, but from a cost-performance perspective, the mythical beasts are too cheap.

But what if someone suddenly gave you a mythical beast?

Some might say...

If it were him, he would have sold the divine beast on the spot!

Even the cheapest mythical beast can easily sell for two or three thousand. With that money, he could not only get a bunch of ordinary pets to use until they die, but also save a lot of money. Wouldn't it be better to buy ribs instead?

This idea isn't wrong, but it's just too hasty.

Selling the mythical beast directly would certainly bring in a large sum of money in one go.

But once you spend that money, it's gone. Before long, you'll be back to square one, still without a mythical beast, and still having to worry about the lifespan of your baby and the witch doctor's problem every day.

But if we stay...

Although not many results can be seen in the short term.

If you persevere and persist for a while, you'll find that you've saved a lot of time and energy without even realizing it!

The key is.

Hunting treasure maps with a mythical beast is an absolute emotional boost!

Therefore, for true veteran image processing experts...

You want him to buy a mythical beast himself? Sorry, I can't do that.

But if you get a mythical beast for free, you'll definitely have to use it until the very end!

Fang Yun's current actions are clearly aimed at equipping Paigu Tang with a perpetual motion machine set, helping him become a ruthless ultimate map-hunting master!

But here's the thing.

According to the rules he had previously stated.

Each account can only be optimized once, and only one part can be optimized.

But now he's clearly going to break that rule.

This... isn't appropriate, is it?

"As everyone knows, the key to the perpetual motion machine set lies in the 'set' itself!"

The comments were either criticizing Paigu Tang for getting lucky or for ignoring the rules.

Fang Yun could only patiently explain: "In other words, this account was optimized from the very beginning to serve map-collecting purposes, so naturally we want to solve this problem once and for all and completely eliminate any worries for map-collecting enthusiasts!"

"Goodness, you're actually going to explain yourself?"

"Come on! A stainless steel weapon is enough for a map-hunting guy to last forever, there's no need for a divine beast!"

"I understand wanting to collect a perpetual motion machine set, but is it really necessary to have a divine beast? If all else fails, you could at least get him a fully red Hibiscus with tens of thousands of lifespans!"

"As long as there is a lifespan, ordinary babies will never be able to compare with divine beasts!"

"Whatever! Anyway, even if I buy a Pink Bubble, it'll only cost three or four thousand at most. Compared to what Xue-ge went through, it's incredibly cheap!"

"Although he doesn't spend as much as Xue Ge before me, the thought that this trash map-hunting Tang is about to collect the perpetual motion machine set before me makes me feel itchy all over!"

"Otherwise, why would people always say that luck is also a part of ability?"

Despite his explanation, many people remained dissatisfied.

However, considering that the perpetual motion machine set is indeed very valuable in the eyes of map hunters, and that even if you really buy a legendary beast, the cost is far less than that of the Snow Brother mentioned earlier.

So everyone reluctantly accepted it.

We can't refuse, since Fang Yun said it from the beginning.

He reserves all rights to interpret the rules of this event...

I've finally managed to steer the tide of the comments back on track.

Fang Yun finally breathed a slight sigh of relief.

He knew in his heart that arranging stainless steel weapons and mythical beasts for Ribs Tang was indeed overstepping the rules.

But he still did it, for a simple reason.

Tang, who is known for his slender build, is indeed in a less than optimistic situation in reality, and he wants to help the other party out.

of course.

Is the other party genuinely in trouble, or just trying to get something out of him?

Fang Yun couldn't be 100% certain either.

However, considering that the other party only randomly selected the winner from their own live stream.

Even if they wanted to put on a show, they probably wouldn't have the time.

simply put.

If what the other party said is true, then the question raised in the live stream about why he didn't ask someone from his class is truly unsolvable.

You can't expect someone who can't walk to push a wheelchair to tighten screws, can you?

That's why Fang Yun wanted to assemble a perpetual motion machine set for the other party.

He could certainly give him the money directly, but as the saying goes, it's better to teach a man to fish than to give him a fish.

Given the other party's current situation, it's better to give them money directly.

Providing some indirect assistance to help the other party become self-reliant is the most appropriate decision from all perspectives.

of course.

All of this is based on the premise that the other party is genuinely experiencing financial difficulties.

So this matter is not over.

He will then have someone follow up, and if any problems arise, he will take decisive action to provide the other party with a great deal of support!

While thinking about all sorts of things.

Fang Yun continued to communicate with the seller of the pink bubble product.

The seller initially just wanted to show off her baby, but unexpectedly, her bubble actually caught someone's eye.

Just as he was considering whether to refuse or take the opportunity to fleece the other party.

His friends list suddenly exploded with friend requests!

The key point is that these people who add him seem to be two separate groups.

A group of people threatened him not to sell bubbles to the other party, or they would hunt him down.

The other group didn't force him not to sell, but simply told him that he should be fair about the price, and that they would reward him handsomely afterwards.

The sudden influx of these two groups left the seller completely bewildered.

who am I?

where am I?

What the hell just happened?!

I stood there, bewildered, for quite a while.

finally.

Through conversations with some of his close friends, he finally figured out what was going on.

But when he learned that the swordsman he was bargaining with was actually the legendary man.

The seller was stunned on the spot.

Holy crap, Cheng is chatting with me?!

The thought of having your idol right in front of you, yet not recognizing them, and foolishly wanting to stab them in the back is unbearable.

The seller was so angry he wanted to punch himself!

"Here's the thing, I bought this bubble a while ago for 2800 yuan, so if you really want to buy it... how about 3000? 3000 for you?"

She realized that it was her idol who wanted to buy the bubble.

The seller suddenly changed his tune and revealed his true identity on the spot, leaving Fang Yun completely bewildered.

"Of course, I won't just take your 200 yuan for nothing. When I bought this bubble, it came with nothing. After I got it, I put a combo set on it myself. If you want to buy it, I'll give it to you for free!"

Seeing that Fang Yun did not reply, the seller thought he had overstated the issue and quickly added.

"No...do you know who I am?"

Seeing that the other party first revealed their true colors, and then added that they would also give him the combo set they were carrying.

After being stunned for a moment, Fang Yun immediately realized that the other party must know his identity.

"Hehe, with Brother Cheng speaking up, how can we fans not support him!"

Upon seeing Fang Yun's words, the seller chuckled but did not deny it.

"Alright, I just checked. The high combo stats on your bubble are pretty good. If you really sell it for 3000, you'll lose money hand over fist, won't you?"

Shaking his head helplessly, Fang Yun, who never liked to take advantage of fans, thought for a moment and finally gave the other party a very fair price, successfully buying the Super Bubble.

"Holy crap, they really bought it?!"

"Just kidding, if Brother Cheng sets his sights on something, it's incredibly easy for him to buy it."

"I never expected that this seller would also be a fan of Brother Cheng. He really has die-hard fans all over the world."

"The Super Bubble with its high-strength packaging is only 3000 yuan? How come I never get to see such a deal?"

"They were just giving Brother Cheng face, and besides, Brother Cheng didn't agree to that price in the end, did he?"

"I can't take it anymore! Just thinking about how this trash map-collecting Tang has risen to the top in one step and directly put on the perpetual motion machine set that I've always dreamed of makes me hate myself for not winning the lottery!"

"Alright, although it looks a bit infuriating, a stainless steel weapon and a high-combo set of Super Bubble didn't even cost 5000 yuan in total. That's not even enough to carry Xue Ge's shoes."

"I envy Xue Ge's account, but it's useless. Most people can't afford to play it. But this account is different. With the perpetual motion machine set, this account is the ultimate map-clearing machine. It only produces and doesn't consume anything. It's simply invincible!"

"Alright, alright, that should be the end of the second lucky winners list, right? Now it's time for the most exciting part: the final draw for the last spot!"

"Forget it, I've given up on winning. Damn, over 30,000 more people have flooded into the live stream in just a short while. It would be really weird if we could win!"

"Who says it isn't true..."

Fang Yun watched helplessly as, after a series of conversations, he successfully bought Super Bubble from this fan.

The viewers in the live stream were filled with envy, jealousy, and hatred; their eyes were practically red with envy!

Just as they said.

Xue Ge's special necklace is indeed awesome, and the overall cost is far greater than that of the perpetual motion machine set that Da Tu Tang wore.

The problem is that, apart from the necklace, Xue Ge's other parts are also incredibly powerful.

In other words.

This is a level that ordinary players can never reach. They may envy it, but it's hard to be jealous of it.

But the pork ribs are completely different.

The reason why the game Fantasy Westward Journey has remained popular for so many years is...

The participation of business owners is merely icing on the cake; the real backbone comes from the millions of ordinary players.

For any ordinary player, there is always one theme they can't avoid: making money to improve themselves.

That's why everyone was so excited when they first saw Pork Ribs Tang.

While the privileged are certainly enviable, Paigu Tang truly represents the working class!

The result was completely unexpected.

This guy, Tang, who's practically skinny, didn't even articulate any decent dreams.

Fang Yun took the initiative to help him come up with a dream, and even made it come true!

This dream, which has been realized, is something that most ordinary players of Fantasy Westward Journey would never even dare to dream of in their daily lives!

A level 120 stainless steel weapon with a built-in high-combo set of super bubbles.

These two items alone are a guaranteed kill to any map-hunting character!

Even if you add up the money spent on both, it's still less than what Xue Ge spent.

But the final effect, especially the impact on the vast number of ordinary players in the live stream, was far greater than the effect of Xue Ge getting the godlike status!
