This Weird Three Kingdoms game is too cruel.

Chapter 446: The birth of Essence Pill and the fifth-order Scourge Army!

The dinner at the Lord's Castle is over.

At the enthusiastic invitation of the Scourge leaders.

Yuan Shao, Gongsun Zan and others went to the tavern on Lord Avenue to continue the second game.

Hang Yuling has developed to this day.

There are abundant entertainment facilities.

I wouldn’t dare say it’s comparable to the real world, but at least it’s a replica of it.

The hospitality provided by the Scourge Army was not as luxurious and formal as the Lord's Dinner, but it could broaden the horizons of these people in Jieqiao who had lived through hundreds of years of hardship.

After the Dragon Slayer Society became the Jiyin Sect and the Musheng Sect, it became another important organization in the territory, and the leaders of various disaster army groups wanted to establish good relations with it.

The reason is not difficult to guess.

On the one hand, the Dragon Slayer Society still has a lot of important intelligence value to be mined, and on the other hand, there are at least hundreds of talented people in the Dragon Slayer Society.

If these members could be recruited into the corps to serve as worshippers, it would be enough to greatly enhance the strength of the corps.

Hang Yu has now asked all the questions he wanted to ask.

However, he still asked Xiao Ba to keep an eye on it at all times and record any intelligence or information that was worth noting.

"There shouldn't be any problems with the boundary bridge."

Hang Yu believed that as the power of the Dragon Slayer Society was completely absorbed by the territory, the pressure on the territory in the direction of the boundary bridge would be greatly reduced.

"Xiao Ba, notify General Wen Pin to immediately stop deployment and return to Luoshui!"

"Yes!"

Jie Bridge is directly connected to Woniu Mountain.

If the Jieqiao area is unstable, the defense pressure of Woniushan will be very great.

Woniu Mountain is a relatively weak area in the territory and its location is very critical.

Because of this, Hang Yu originally planned to deploy the territory's top defense general Wen Pin and the giant warship here to ensure that nothing could go wrong.

Now the defensive pressure on Woniu Mountain has been reduced.

There is no need for Wen Pin to stay there for a long time.

It would be better to transfer back to Luoshui, on the one hand to protect the main city in the future, and on the other hand to prepare for the next battle.

There are only two or three days left for the protection of the stars.

The top priority is to take advantage of the fact that the safe period has not yet ended and there is no need to worry about being robbed, and to attack Shouchun with all our strength, capture the scarlet desert in the east, and seize this huge area of ​​strategic depth.

If this campaign is successful, Shouchun will have the Scarlet Desert as a geographical buffer, and Jieqiao will have the Dragon Slayer Society to contain the Star Dragon Territory and provide strongholds and intelligence support.

The central core area of ​​the territory is absolutely safe.

The southern and northern defense zones of the territory have sufficient depth. If outsiders attack the territory from these two places, the main city will have enough time and space to respond, and the threat posed will be minimal.

"It's time to attack the Scarlet City!"

Hang Yu began to edit tasks related to the Scarlet City.

This city, created by the Outer God Scarlet Mother's followers, is extremely large, and the current strength of the Scourge is far from enough to shake it.

The city is located in the heart of the Crimson Desert.

It would take at least half a day for the Scourge Army to rush from the Abyss Fog Gate to the Scarlet City. If they died twice, more than a day would pass.

Judging from the size of Scarlet City and the strength of its reserve assessment.

If the Scourge attacks with this frequency and intensity, they will not be able to take the city in 20 or 30 days, let alone two or three days.

The only way is to use the giant divine ship. The giant divine ship now has the blessing of the main city level. It will become the most important troop transportation and regeneration platform for Hangyu Territory.

Wen Pin was recalled from the Woniu Mountain area.

The troops will be led to the Scarlet Desert as soon as possible and deployed in the designated area. After the Scourge participates in the mission, they can be teleported directly from the main city and quickly enter the battlefield.

After the war broke out.

The giant divine ship can even be used as a resurrection platform.

In this way, the Scourge Army can avoid the long journey of running around the map, and can immediately regroup and attack again after death, thus ensuring sufficient attack frequency and intensity.

In this situation, with the small soldier fairy Zhang He, the peerless general Dian Wei, and the powerful firepower support deployed on the giant divine ship, the possibility of capturing the Scarlet City greatly increases.

Of course, up to now.

The territory has no way to enter the Scarlet City yet.

So the biggest problem right now is the lack of intelligence.

No one knows what special circumstances may occur during the process, so when deploying operations, one needs to be more cautious and be prepared to intervene personally in response to circumstances.

When Hang Yu was preparing for the Battle of Scarlet City.

Zou Wan came to report: "My Lord, Dr. Zhang has made a major breakthrough in drug research and development."

"Really? Another breakthrough!"

Hang Yu immediately became interested when he heard the news.

During this period of time, Zhang Zhongjing has been busy in the territory. Although he is not directly involved in refining medicine, he is an absolute scientific research fanatic in the territory.

With the blessing of orange talent.

Zhang Zhongjing's research and development capabilities can be described as incredible.

In recent times, Zhang Zhongjing has successfully developed medicines including but not limited to the following types.

First, attribute medicine.

After Zhang Zhongjing had deciphered the first, second and third order conventional attribute amplifying pills, he had recently successfully deciphered the fourth order attribute pills and the fifth order attribute pills.

Level 4 and 5 attribute medicines are considered high-level attribute medicines. Because the cost of refining materials is too expensive, there are only a handful of lords who are capable of purchasing them on a large scale, and the market is not as large as that of levels 1 and 2.

Even so, it can still generate considerable income for the territory. Of course, most attribute medicines will be supplied to the territory first, thereby enhancing the strength of the Scourge Army and territory units.

The second type is consumable medicine.

Zhang Zhongjing not only researched medicines with conventional properties.

He also developed more than a dozen kinds of medicines with unconventional properties.

Except for a few resistance-enhancing drugs that can permanently enhance specific resistances.

The vast majority of others are consumable medicines that temporarily and significantly enhance properties.

Zhang Zhongjing also developed several different grades of advanced recovery pills for level 4 and 5 units, which can allow high-level units to quickly restore health or mana.

……

not difficult to see.

The elixir studied by Zhang Zhongjing.

The vast majority are necessities that are in short supply internally.

These elixirs can greatly increase the strength and foundation of the territory, so they are basically consumed internally. Although they can also bring considerable results to the alchemists, they are ultimately unable to create considerable export income like the Mu Shengmen.

These days.

Zhang Zhongjing stayed indoors and never went out.

It is said that they want to research a kind of elixir that has no market or almost no market, but has a huge market and demand, and once successfully developed, there will be no chance of encountering competition.

At this moment, the preaching reached Hang Yu's ears.

This kind of elixir has most likely been successfully developed.

So he went to Zhang Zhongjing's laboratory in person.

To check the latest research results of this eternal medicine saint.

"Lord, please look!"

Zhang Zhongjing presented a bottle of elixir, "This is the special elixir that I have recently developed!"

Hang Yu poured out one and held it in his hand. He was surprised to find that the pill was very strange. Its material was transparent, a bit like crystal or ice. When exposed to the natural environment, it showed slight signs of evaporation.

[Zhang Zhongjing's secret essence pill], a first-level pill, top grade green, can gain 499 points of essence after taking it, and can only be used once a day.

"This is……"

Hang Yu couldn't help but widen his eyes in shock.

Although he had never doubted Zhang Zhongjing's talent, he did not expect that he could develop such a thing.

The essence of the abyss!

This is the most basic and scarce core resource of all territories, and is also considered to be untradeable.

Although there are natural treasures that can increase vital energy in various places, these items are usually rare and hard to come by, and there is no way to cultivate them in large quantities through spiritual field planting.

Therefore.

No matter how powerful the background and influence are.

A territory can seek external assistance for any resource.

It is almost impossible for essence and energy to obtain external assistance.

Although the elixir refined by Zhang Zhongjing is only of first-grade green quality, it can seal 500 points of essence.

Although judging from the current situation, the essence is still volatile as always, but the rate of loss is not fast.

Hang Yu asked: "How long can this essence pill last in the natural environment?"

Zhang Zhongjing immediately replied: "According to my speculation, if it is completely exposed to the natural environment, it will lose 20% of its essence in about three days, more than 50% in ten days, and it will take about 30 to 40 days for it to be completely lost."

The above is just in the natural environment.

If a special formation or props are made in advance for preservation, then it will not be a problem to triple the shelf life of the Essence Pill.

What is Hang Yuling’s most competitive resource?
Of course, it is the essence of the abyss itself.

If a small portion of this resource, even just one ten-thousandth or one hundred-thousandth, could be used to produce specialty products for export, the value that could be created would be immeasurable!

This will not only be income from magic crystals or other resources, but also excess profits beyond material things, as well as incredible privileges.

Pills like Jingqi Pills.

Has the Land of Stars ever appeared in the past?

Hang Yu believed that there should still be some, even if Shengcang City and this domain had never appeared, but the stars and myriad worlds were almost infinitely vast, and there were very few territories that could produce similar resources by chance.

That is also extremely rare and extremely scarce.

The most important thing is that for almost all lords of the territory, essence is always an insufficient resource.

Even if there is the ability to refine similar elixirs or creations, how many territories have the ability or willingness to sell them to the outside world?

Therefore.

The Jingqi Pill developed by Zhang Zhongjing is uniquely competitive and can be mass-produced. In the long run, its value and significance will even far exceed the creations of Mu Sheng's refining tools.

According to Zhang Zhongjing's explanation.

The materials consumed in refining the Essence Pill are not precious.

However, the refining process requires two more stringent prerequisites.

First of all, no matter the quality of the Essence Pill itself, it would require an expert alchemist of at least the fourth rank.

Because refining this pill requires mastering a special alchemy technique, which was developed by Zhang Zhongjing specifically for refining this pill. In order to practice this alchemy technique, one needs sufficiently powerful alchemy techniques to match it.

Just this one request is enough to deter most territories.

Alchemy experts are not easy to come by, and few territories can recruit them in large numbers.

Sometimes it is not a question of money. Take Shengcang City for example. The number of alchemy experts above the expert level is limited, and most of them are controlled by major families, forces, and organizations.

Recruitment is also good.

Cultivation is fine.

The cost is not cheap.

Hang Yuling did not have this concern.

On the one hand, Hang Yuling is fully capable of training alchemy experts on a large scale.

On the one hand, under Zhang Zhongjing's Medicine Saint domain, he can forcibly upgrade the alchemists in the territory to a higher level. Theoretically speaking, he only needs to recruit a large number of high-level alchemists.

Secondly, in the process of refining the Essence Pill, the alchemist's skills will be damaged, and the pill itself has a high failure rate.

simply speaking.

On average, an alchemist loses about 700 points of energy.

Only then can you refine a pill containing 500 essences.

This pill has a hard failure rate, which is purely a matter of luck. Once the pill fails to be refined, all the energy consumed will be lost.

This is also difficult to accept for many territories. After all, the major territories do not have enough energy. How can they use the energy to subsidize the consumption of alchemists?
But it still means nothing to Hang Yuling.

On the one hand, Hang Yuling’s energy supply is very sufficient.

On the one hand, relying on Zhang Zhongjing's powerful luck, he was able to greatly reduce the failure rate of alchemy, making the process of refining the Essence Pill almost 100% successful without incurring any extra losses.

Thus.

Costs will be minimized.

Efficiency and quality will be maximized.

Theoretically speaking, mass production of Essence Pills is not a problem!
Once this kind of elixir is truly mass-produced, it will give the territory huge strategic value, a value that goes far beyond economic growth.

Hang Yu asked: "Is there any way to develop a higher-level, higher-quality essence pill?"

Zhang Zhongjing: "Yes, but the advanced essence pill is more complicated, and I need some time to study and perfect it."

"it is good!"

Talent is indeed the primary productive force!
From now on, there will be various wood-sacred creations for refining tools, and unique essence pills for refining medicine. It will be hard not to soar to the sky with this territory!
Hang Yu said: "Dr. Zhang is indeed a great medicine saint. Once this medicine is successfully mass-produced, it will have unimaginable and inestimable value to the territory and the human race!"

Done.

He was also generous.

Zhang Zhongjing was awarded 100 million contribution points on the spot.

This was both a bonus for Zhang Zhongjing and funds to support his continued research.

Hang Yu stayed with Zhang Zhongjing for a while, and after learning more about the functions of Jingqi Dan and various new elixirs, he returned to his residence. And at this time.

Xiao Ba gave another reminder.

"Report to the master!"

"A player is breaking through to level five!"

This news did not surprise or surprise Hang Yu.

It is very difficult to upgrade from level 40 to level 41. This level jump requires as much as 1000 million essences!

But if we use the strength of an entire army to fully push out one or two fifth-level strongmen, it is not impossible to do so.

Because it is one of the biggest benefits of the Scourge Army.

That is, each corps has its own energy pool.

The essence of this pool comes from the commissions from the daily tasks and hunting of the legion members.

Although the wool comes from the sheep, the free disposal of spiritual resources is itself a very valuable benefit and privilege.

After the battle of Jie Bridge ended.

The average reserve energy of the top ten natural disaster army corps has reached about 1500 million.

Among them, the first few military corps have as many as 20 to 30 million people!

With such abundant energy reserves, if one were to concentrate resources and achieve a fifth-tier ranking, it would be entirely possible.

of course.

The Corps’ essence is a public resource.

It is generally used to reward meritorious officials in the territory, or as an important bargaining chip to recruit top talents.

It is unlikely that such a valuable public resource will be wasted.

All on one person.

Otherwise, the birth of a fifth-level player would not have come until now.

After the battle at the Dragon Slayer Society headquarters at Jie Bridge, the top players of the Scourge Army obtained a large amount of essence, with each individual having accumulated millions. Under such circumstances, it is normal for a corps to use the essence pool and be the first to push out a fifth-level player.

after all.

The birth of the first fifth-level player.

In any case, it is a milestone.

This can effectively increase personal and corps reputation.

If only a fifth-level player appeared, it would not be something to make a fuss about, and Xiao Ba would not report such a small matter to himself specifically.

The reason why he reported.

This is because individual fifth-level players themselves have little impact on the strength of the territory.

However, the collateral effects brought about by the appearance of fifth-level players, especially the impact on Blue Star, are worthy of attention!

"After the appearance of the fifth-level player, Xiao Ba's ability to interfere with Blue Star will be further enhanced!"

Tiandao Magic Cube directly reported the specific situation to Hang Yu.

original.

Xiao Ba's abilities will continue to increase with the growth of the territory and the players.

During this process, the influence and interference of the territory on the real world will become more and more obvious.

This is why, after players break through to level 4, they can awaken in the real world.

In fact, after Hang Yu successfully opened up the Shouyang Mountain area, Xiao Ba already had the ability to interfere more directly with the Blue Star world, but it needed to be based on some stronger anchor points.

And the fifth-level player.

It is a strong enough anchor point in reality.

Hang Yu asked: "What can a territory do through a level 5 player?"

Xiao Ba replied: "We can use the fifth-level players as a channel to directly transmit the territory resources to the real world, or send the real world resources to the territory through these players."

"what?"

Hang Yu was stunned when he heard this.

You can actually play it like this?

simply put.

Level 4 players can use their in-game abilities in the real world.

Theoretically, a level 5 player can open the game panel and game backpack in the real world, and can even bring things in the game into the real world.

of course.

The reverse is also true.

Part of the real world.

Can also be transferred into the game in this way.

If we say that the fourth stage period ushered in the era of player awakening.

Then when players gradually enter the fifth level, the barrier between the game and reality will begin to gradually disappear.

Hang Yu: "Doesn't this mean that all kinds of weapons in the real world can also be used in the territory?"

Xiao Ba: "Although it is theoretically feasible, the laws of the Blue Planet and the Abyss are different, so most weapons may lose their effectiveness when used in the Abyss or the stars."

No matter what.

This is a big change.

Hang Yu needs to study how to use it.

As for the territory resources appearing in the real world? This is bound to have a huge impact on the real world.

Hang Yu has always believed in maintaining stability and does not want any major chaos to occur on Blue Star, otherwise it may in turn affect the order of the territory, so restrictions need to be imposed in this regard.

After a little thought.

Hang Yu then asked Xiao Ba to make the following settings.

Players above level five can cash in in-game items in the real world, but cashing out requires a large amount of territory contribution points, and currently only items of level one to four and no higher than white quality can be cashed out.

This way.

Although a small amount of supplies from the territory will appear in the real world.

But this will not bring too much impact to the real world, but it can also bring huge benefits to the real world!
After all, even the white objects of level one to four are extraordinary materials that are unique in the real world and are enough to bring revolutionary changes to technological development.

Also.

Some medicines.

Terminal illnesses can be easily treated.

It has the effect of bringing the dead back to life.

It is enough to drive countless rich people crazy.

This will inevitably stimulate all forces in the real world to pay more attention to the game of Weird Three Kingdoms, and thus increase investment with the whole country's strength.

The bond between Blue Star and the territory is deepening.

The impact of territory on the real world is inevitable.

So far, among the people of the territory, only Zou Wan knows about the existence of Lan Xing. She now has countless aliases on the official website forum, and many well-known eccentrics are actually played by her.

Hang Yu felt that it was time to further relax the restrictions between the two worlds.

such as.

Open up permissions for more senior characters in the territory.

Allow them to log into the forum and communicate directly with offline players and netizens.

In the future, as the barriers between worlds continue to dissolve, not only will players from the real world be able to enter the game world, but perhaps the people of the territory will also one day come to Blue Planet.

At that time.

Blue Planet has a population of tens of billions.

Strong demand and productivity.

All of them will be used by Hang Yu Ling and become the backing of Hang Yu Ling!
