Something's wrong with my undead

Chapter 536 Non-Killing Experience

Heine was stunned, and the player was stunned too.

But then Heine realized a more serious problem -

He raised his hand, facing Solace.

The latter's soul strength began to increase, and in the blink of an eye it broke through the original level six and reached the level seven.

...

“What the hell? What the hell what the hell???”

Mr. Sa was so shocked that he couldn't even speak.

The others were no better.

Teacher Xia: "Is this right? Is this right? Is this right? Why was this experience given to Suo Laoden? And not to me? Huh?"

Wei Dianyuan: "Don't worry, where did he get the experience? No, why can non-players also level up?"

Da Huang: "I remember you said that Heine could see experience at the beginning, but it was green. Later, he found combat experience and then there were blue ones. Could it be that the root of this is combat experience?"

President Sa: "But can't combat experience in the game only be gained by sparring with NPCs? And can't it only be used to improve skill levels? And, isn't the way we gain combat experience by teaching NPCs? Does... does this make sense?"

Teacher Xia: "I don't understand! I don't understand! I don't understand! I am deeply shocked! I can't be the only one shocked!"

He immediately opened the tea room.

[Xia]: Something big happened. Heine promoted Solodeng to a higher level!
【Caught three sheep】: What???
【Black-hearted Glasses】: ??? Explain your situation clearly! I’ll be right there!

...

Not to mention their series of question marks, Solace was also confused.

After the initial shock, he even felt offended.

Because judging from the behavior just now, this is more like a "gift" from God to mortals.

When did he become a mortal?
When did he need a gift?

When did he place his hope in God?

Is it possible that the great Solace is looked down upon like this?!

Among this group of people, perhaps only Heine had made some slight discoveries.

When he got the blue root, it felt exactly the same as the cool and refreshing light blue "combat experience balls" he usually got, so he came up with this bold idea and subconsciously gave the experience away.

But the purity of the two is not at the same level at all.

For example, the combat experience that players usually get from NPCs is like handfuls of dust, loose and light.

And this root is a huge and hard stone.

When he upgraded Solace, he only consumed the loose soil on the surface of the rock, and was unable to mobilize more.

Moreover, this time, upgrading Solace actually consumed his mental energy.

The more he wanted to mobilize, the more mental energy he consumed. In the end, he could not dig any more, and his current level six mental energy was almost drained.

We need to call people, we must call people!
Just like Solace said, the mage might have studied the "Ritual of Serving God" from the source, so Macara can't be left behind.

...

Soon, people who came to enjoy the melon filled the study of the lord's mansion, and almost all of McCara's senior executives came.

Some of them are soul bodies, such as the two Duns.

Some came in person, such as Zhuoyang and Huihui.

Although not everyone is explicitly aware of the existence of "experience points", they are aware that there is some kind of resource allocation relationship between Heine and the Skeleton.

And this is the main reason why they collectively jumped to level six in just one year.

This is largely seen as some kind of mysterious "great power", just like Heine's mysterious skeletons.

Indigenous peoples have rich experience in using the unknowable to explain the unknowable.

What Heine is showing now is more like the magnification of "great power".

He didn't even let anyone go!

This may not be bad news.

Who doesn't want to upgrade their pants? After understanding the general situation, everyone started a small-scale discussion.

Linumu remembered some ancient rituals of the Wood Elves. Such promotion could only be achieved if the people of the Council of Elders asked the gods for blessings.

Milton mentioned a similar feeling after becoming a lich - the power obtained from the underworld can allow the lich to undergo a complete transformation in the real world.

These "descendants" all have one thing in common with the upgrades Solace experienced.

That is, the participation of "God" is required.

The way everyone looked at Heine gradually became strange.

The latter's attention is mainly focused on internal discussions among players.

Huihui:

"Strictly speaking, there are only two kinds of experience in AGE. One is the main way for players to gain experience - killing experience. The other is the general term for all other experiences, including but not limited to sparring with NPCs, completing single-player missions, completing team missions, completing regional missions, etc. These do not have clear terms and are collectively referred to as 'non-killing experience'."

Zhuoyang: "Now that you mention it, I remember that Dylan once said that Heine's way of gaining experience - or the way we gain experience - is a kind of 'plunder'. Then, is the 'combat experience' that has obviously mutated in this world considered 'non-plunder'?"

Huihui: “It’s possible. This is in line with my understanding of the term ‘experience’ which is full of gameplay. I have always been curious about why AGE has given so many high-quality explanations for so many terms that fit the RP setting, but only missed experience.

"For example, I can understand that I gain more experience after a battle, but I cannot understand that helping an old lady find her lost cat will give me more experience than a battle.

"But from the perspective of now, 'killing experience' is, as you said, something plundered from dead monsters, and the latter, as well as many similar and identical situations, the experience we gain can be regarded as 'background operations of a higher dimension'."

Da Huang: "You mean the administrator has the authority to change the number directly?"

Megumin: "Yes, this method can be concretely expressed as 'the administrator thinks you have done a good job in helping the old lady, so he gave you some experience as a reward.' If we compare it with the incident between Solace and Heine this time, it is not difficult to find that Heine played the role of the administrator, but the experience he gave was not created out of thin air, but obtained in the form of 'roots'."

Da Huang: "So in this real world, 'God' is the administrator, but because of the existence of faith, they each manage a piece of land. Chanting scriptures gives +1 experience, burning incense gives +2 experience, cursing pagans gives +3 experience, and defending their own gods gives +4 experience. Gods cannot manage places like Macara, so there is no faith here, and upgrades are slow. Is that right?"

Zhuoyang: "Indeed, then according to what you said, when we help NPCs improve their skill levels, does that count as the NPC thinking that we have done a good job in helping them, so he gives us some experience?"

Huihui: "You want to be your own god, huh? You really are preaching wherever you go."

Catching the Sheep: “Just tell me if it’s right or not!”

Da Huang: "That does make sense. The two are of the same nature. The only difference is the number of resources available."

...

They were still discussing - actually, it was Hui Yanggou and the other two who were discussing. The other three were as quiet as death, with the expression "I know nothing, and I dare not ask anything" written on their faces.

Heine nodded repeatedly in his heart.

In addition to what Huihui mentioned, he thought of another possibility.

"After level five, if a transcendent wants to advance, it needs the participation of the will of the gods, or in other words, it needs to be in a place where it can be observed by the gods. Only in this way can it receive the gods' 'blessings'. The criterion for judgment is whether the individual is pious enough."

He looked at Solace. "Although Macara is in the blind spot of the gods, due to the objective spread of religion, the people inevitably have a shallow belief in it. No matter whether it is useful or not, they still believe in it a little. But you are different. You are a fierce man who confronted the gods head-on four thousand years ago. You are older than the gods, so you don't have any faith in your heart. This can also be regarded as a kind of 'piety'. Therefore, I can use 'divinity' to give you power."

Solace reluctantly accepted his explanation that he performed well because he didn't believe in it, but there was still a thorn in his heart.

"So, whose power is this?"

Heine glanced at the sheep and said, "Perhaps in Macara, everyone is his own 'god'."

...

Huihui: "Well, Heine has become your follower, the Sheep Pope."

Zhuoyang: "Then you are wrong. This religion was founded by Gao Wenjian."

Teacher Xia: "Bloody Dawn?"

Zhuoyang: "This time we changed the name to Karaoke Knights."

Mr. Sa: "What??? What kind of name is this?"

Zhuoyang: "Kara = Mackala, ok = Omni-Knight, put together it means 'Mackala can play all knights', is there a problem?"

Wei Dian Yuan: "That's fine, it makes sense."

...

What the hell are the Karaoke Knights?

Heine was complaining about the name in his mind when Loulton suddenly stepped forward.

"Then, can the 'abnormal promotion speed' of the group of extraordinary people in Macara over the past eight months be regarded as a 'personal miracle'?"
