Monsters Are Coming-Chapter 1000 - 275: Dramatic Changes in the Underground Cave, Divine Lamp Descends
The idea of the Lord of Jile was quickly applied to reality.
But it was limited to the top Jile players who had already graduated from Death Space and were active in Monster World.
Among the player community, three players received a "Hidden Task" issued by the Lord of Jile and were given a rule-derived imprint upon returning to Death Space.
The first thing these three players did was to ask for guidance on whether this derived rule imprint could be made into a Life Soul.
But the situation was similar to the derived imprint of the Divine Artifact Clan at the time.
Rule-derived imprints are essentially just nodes generated by the "Jile Rules," and the control rights of the rules still lie with the Lord of Jile.
Sacrificial power can be consumed to simulate the operation of the Power of Extreme Joy to generate a Life Soul, but the cost is enormous and completely unnecessary.
However, the presence of this rule imprint also provides players who favor instance parties a way to leverage the Jile Rules for extra benefits.
The key point is that the player's body is not subject to external energy extraction.
The energy benefits created by the players using the Jile-derived rules can be completely enjoyed by the players, and the Lord of Jile can't extract any profit from it whatsoever.
Qi Sheng's setting is to continue taking a 30% cut.
Although the Lord of Jile can't take it, Qi Sheng still takes it.
He takes a portion of all profits produced by the players.
Including the Power of Faith produced by the Divine Soul used by the Principal, he also implemented a cut setting.
Additionally, these three forum players have posted on the forum, seeking assistance from the wide player community on how to use the Jile-derived rule imprint to create profit.
They also asked for guidance, but guidance typically does not cover issues that require detailed hand-holding.
As for the Lord of Jile's notion of "transform into a Heavenly Demon and entice all beings," it sounds simple, but it requires a target group.
The characteristic of the Jile Rules is that the stronger the creature enticed, the more Power of Extreme Joy is produced when they burn their essence while falling into depravity.
This pattern is definitely invalid for one's own players; otherwise, one could open a Heavenly Demon entertainment center among them to let players have fun while generating profit, and even if players died during the depravity, they could be resurrected after an hour, essentially a zero-loss income, meeting everyone's needs.
But this is clearly not feasible.
Externally, there must be a clear target.
The players who posted the help request on the forum received many suggestions with the help of forum players.
Some players suggested going to the developing Doomsday Small World and descending in the form of an Outer Heaven Demon to harvest life.
But this idea was immediately met with various oppositions.
The Doomsday Small World is a resource place where many players with Praying Life Souls in the support streams continuously produce income.
Players from the instance parties adopting the Heavenly Demon Style coming in would severely affect their Power of Prayer income, and this proposal was universally denounced.
Moreover, the production modes of Power of Prayer and Power of Extreme Joy are completely different.
The production of Power of Prayer is also influenced by the "intensity of desire" of the Pray-er; the stronger the desire to fulfill the wish, the more feedback energy they gain after their spirit is satisfied.
However, the production of Power of Extreme Joy requires high life strength from the "Fallen."
The Small World's creatures have weak physical fitness, and for players adopting the Heavenly Demon Style, the only option is mass production with very low output.
Except for easy enticement, there is no advantage.
To obtain sufficient Power of Extreme Joy profits, Monster World is the optimal choice, and this was the choice of the Lord of Jile back then.
In the meantime, some players proposed normal hunting suggestions.
A monster can consume two portions, first causing the monster to fall and die in painless pleasure, then killing it to receive feedback benefits.
This approach is relatively reliable; its drawback is that it cannot be mass-produced, still following a hunting-growth route.
Qi Sheng didn't pay too much attention to this discussion.
He always gave players complete freedom in development; he only set general directions and provided ample space for players' creative ideas.
Just as he was about to shift his attention to the Colorful Mist Coast, guidance fed back a message.
Without hesitation, Qi Sheng followed the guidance's mark, shifting his consciousness.
...
Underground cave world.
Under the scene shrouded by a pale blue Sky Dome, Hong Yang crouched behind a rock, tightly gripping a spear with a cold gleaming tip.
Shifting his gaze to the other side, his three teammates were also crouching nearby, ready to act.
Defensive Wu, who excelled in defense, Ah Qi as the assassin, and Xiao Ye providing long-range support as the archer, each occupying a favorable position, held their breath, revealing their heads to watch the monster crawling in the nest ahead.
This was a Hunting Level 69 Rock Beetle, the size of a cow, its back covered with hard scales, its weak point being the soft gray-white skin on its belly.
It's not difficult to kill, but it must be done quickly; otherwise, the Rock Beetle's cries will attract swarms of them to attack.
"Act according to the plan." Hong Yang glanced at the Rock Beetle that had crawled out of the cave and spoke solemnly over the squad's voice channel. 𝚏𝕣𝕖𝚎𝚠𝚎𝚋𝚗𝐨𝐯𝕖𝕝.𝕔𝐨𝕞
"Wu goes first to attract attention, Ah Qi circles around, wait for it to open its mouth to spray acid, Xiao Ye shoot the eyes, and I'll come in with Ah Qi to finish it off."
Wu nodded, got up and raised the Rune Resonance Shield, leaving cover, striking the ground forcefully towards the Rock Beetle.
The Rock Beetle was attracted by the sound, its vertical pupils instantly locked onto Wu, then roared and charged forward, its sturdy tail sweeping across the rock wall, causing stones to splatter.
Wu took the hit head-on, with an ear-piercing rubbing sound between the shield and the sharp claws, but his body stood firm like a rock, his calves sunk into the soil.
Ah Qi, like a phantom, flashed out from the side, dagger slicing through the Rock Beetle's back.
