Starting From Zero

Chapter 174 The Brood

wwxom “Now prepare to witness the miracle!”

As the split body was thrown into the big pit by Radamance, we immediately felt a not very loud muffled sound coming from the ground, but immediately after that, the surrounding ground suddenly began to tremble. , but from above, I saw that the split body that had reached the bottom of the pit was rapidly expanding, and many huge root systems like fish tentacles stretched out from it and penetrated into the nearby land. The vibration of the ground came from this.

The growth rate of that split body is really unusually fast. Although I have heard about the growth speed of the Noisy Nest, the legendary speed is not as exaggerated as the one in front of me. Besides, the environment of this underworld is obviously not the same as the growth of the Noisy Nest, but this Noisy Nest still maintains such an exaggerated growth rate. This is abnormal.

"Is this the effect of the powder you just sprinkled?" I asked in surprise.

Radamance said quite proudly: "I dare not speak of other methods. I am an expert in cultivating the Styx Banshee."

I wiped the cold sweat from my head while looking at the proud Radamance, and murmured in my mind: "Does this wife Persephone have the talent to be a teacher? A regional demon like Radamance can do it." Trained to be gardening experts, wouldn't all the demon gods under Hades be gardeners? Of course, Radamance is a demon king after all. Although his gardening skills are good, the plants he grows are a little bit more exotic."

I was muttering in my mind when I suddenly saw the split body of the Noisy Nest in the pit in front finally growing out of the ground, but the growth characteristics of this thing were obviously different from the normal Noisy Nest. A normal Noisy Nest should have a bare main trunk about four to five meters high growing from the ground all the way up, and then a huge meat ball with a diameter of two to three meters will grow at the top. After that, this meat ball will look like The heart beats and continues to produce noisy banshees until the number it can support reaches its limit.

A normal Noisy Nest should be this long, but the one in front of me not only grows extremely fast, but also looks weird. After this Noisy Nest tree grew out of the ground, it actually grew not one trunk, but four trunks. And it doesn't grow straight upward, but bends in four different directions, and finally plunges back into the soil to form four wooden structures exposed on the ground.

"What's going on? Is this a normal reaction?" I asked, glancing at Radhamanth next to me.

Radamance nodded and said: "Don't worry, this is normal, and the growth is very good. Generally, if three trunks can be separated at this step, it is successful. If four trunks grow like this, it is considered to be very well developed. . I have planted it so many times before, but I have encountered one that has no roots and trunk. The Styx Banshee bred at that time was absolutely top-notch, and I still keep it with me."

I nodded and asked, "So how long will it take for this Styx Banshee to grow?"

"The Styx Banshee did not grow out of this. This is just the first step. You and I will understand after we work together." Radamance knew that it would not be easy to explain, so he simply let me do it.

In fact, the development speed of this noisy nest was indeed fast enough. After about two minutes, a fifth branch suddenly stretched out from the center of the four main trunks of this noisy nest. Radhamans knew that I would misunderstand, so he said directly: "Don't worry, this is not the main trunk. It's just a flower path."

"Hua Jing?"

"Well, you know."

Following Radamance's instructions, I discovered that the branch grew out of the ground and then stopped growing to a height of more than one meter. Then, a green spore appeared at the front end of the branch. This spore looked like The inflated balloon usually begins to expand rapidly. It only takes a dozen seconds to grow a huge bud with a diameter of nearly half a meter. Then suddenly it seems like an explosion. The entire bud suddenly blooms outwards and spurts out a large amount of it. Golden light particles. These light particles fly about four to five meters high. The coverage area is only about five meters in radius, but there are so many light particles and the falling speed is very slow. It looks like stars falling to the ground, which is very beautiful.

As the flower fully blooms, we see a huge blood-red flower hanging on the tip of the branch, and in the center of the flower are several golden stamens stretching out, which looks extremely beautiful.

"What should I do with this? Do I need to pollinate it and let it grow into the Styx Banshee?" I asked, holding the flower.

I came here just to say it casually, but Radamance actually nodded and said, "You're right. It just needs pollination. But it's not pollen. You still have a lot of Noisy Nests there, right?"

I nodded and asked, "What are you doing? Do you still need it?"

"Yes, get them all out. I want to use them."

I nodded and asked the Qilin Warrior to quickly move all the Noisy Nests out and pile them outside. Radamance was checking the Qilin Warriors one by one as they moved out, and then directed the Qilin Warriors to separate the noisy nests. Some of them were thrown into the noisy nests where the vitality was about to be exhausted by the Qilin Warriors he commanded. These were useless. The remaining parts were piled together under his command.

Radamance was picking it up when he suddenly screamed. "Oh my God! Brood! How did you get this?"

Of course I went over when I heard Radamance's cry. As a result, Radamance was holding one of the purple Noisy Nests and yelling in surprise.

"I found that one too with the other Roaring Nests. What's wrong? Is there a problem?"

"Of course there is no problem, it's just that this thing is very rare and hard to find. Don't you even know that?"

"I don't know. What? Is this thing useful?"

Radamance said seriously: "It has many uses. The first one is that it can be washed."

"Wash some?"

"Hey, you are an adventurer after all, don't you know this? You adventurers invented the word wash."

After hearing what Radamance said, I asked tentatively: "Are you talking about the kind of point washing that whitewashes all the attribute points that have been assigned to the player and then redistributes them?"

"Yes, that's it."

"Oh my God!" I was stunned when I heard this answer.

Wash some! This thing is a special business item that can only be seen in the private servers of some previous online games, and not all games have it.

When players first enter the game, attribute allocation is often not so accurate because they do not understand the game, are not familiar with the skills, and do not understand the specific effects of attribute points. Many players like to be the first to experience the game before it is officially released, that is, to participate in the game's internal beta or the game's public beta. In fact, it is to go in and get familiar with the matching effects of various professional attributes in the game, so as to facilitate the game. When the game is officially opened, your characters can directly have the best attribute allocation plan. In addition, plan the future upgrade and career change routes, which skills to learn, which skills to give up, and what tasks to specialize in to obtain certain equipment. These can all be clarified before the closed beta and public beta.

Although most games will delete all closed beta and public beta information after they actually start operations, that is, the accounts and levels of players in these two tests will not be retained. Although on the surface this is done so that players who participate in the test and players who do not participate in the test start the game on the same starting line, it is a setting that ensures fairness in the initial stage of the game to the greatest extent. However, players who have actually participated in the closed beta and public beta can re-apply for an account. Their advantages are still very obvious.

Players who have participated in the test understand the role of attribute points, and their point distribution, if not the most reasonable, is at least relatively reasonable. And they understand a general task process, so they can level up most efficiently. In the early stage of the game, there are few open scenes and the player levels are concentrated. When the leveling point is crowded with people, these players who have participated in the test can use their knowledge to stand out from the many players. Once you break away from the mainstream player group, you can take up a lot of game resources by yourself. Because other players are still crowding into the low-level leveling area, you can already go to the mid-level leveling area. Others are busy grabbing monsters, which will definitely slow down each other's upgrade speed, but you can dominate a large leveling area by yourself. This speed will definitely be much faster than others, and when the mainstream player group squeezes into the intermediate area. You can already go to the premium area. In this way, you are taking one step at a time, others will always follow you and eat dust, and you will not be able to develop even if you want to.

However, even for players who have participated in the test, it does not mean that attribute points can be allocated so accurately. Although the entire game is tested during internal game testing, a multi-time experience mode that is completely different from the normal mode is usually turned on. That is, players upgrade quickly at that time and can test the entire game process in a very short period of time.

Although the player has mastered the reasonable matching of the attribute points of the game characters in this process, the problem is. The equipment that explodes in the game and the tasks you receive. There are also various rewards that come across unexpectedly, and these things are often not fixed. The biggest difference between online games and stand-alone games is its randomness. Especially a super game like "Zero" that is almost equal to a du li world. Even if you play it ten thousand times, I can guarantee that you will never have the same attributes twice. Various unexpected tasks and various sudden situations will put you on a different path, which will then affect a series of changes in your attributes.

The final result of these different attribute changes is to interfere with the balance of your attributes. For example, your attribute points are allocated according to the agility setting, which means that your attributes are mainly concentrated on agility and attack power. However, after you play the game for a while, your character suddenly explodes. I came across a job transfer mission with a hidden profession. This mission can transform you into an extremely powerful mt, which is the main tank of the team. As the main tank of a team, defense and health are the key attributes, but all your previous attributes are added to agility and attack. This is obviously an attribute mismatch. However, this hidden profession is very powerful. Even if you change jobs with your current attributes, your future development will be much higher than your current achievements. At this time, most people will definitely transfer directly to this more promising career, but the problem is that although you have become more powerful, your attributes have become your eternal pain, because if you had just gone directly to With the additional attributes in the mt position, it will definitely be several times more powerful than it is now.

Would you say you are depressed in this situation? And if someone suddenly told you at this time that there was a way to wash away all the attribute points you had obtained so far, and then let you redistribute them yourself, would you say you were happy or not?

So the ability to wash some points is definitely quite incredible. Of course, the above is just a relatively extreme example, but most players will actually have attribute point allocation problems to a greater or lesser extent. This kind of problem is often caused by the attributes of equipment in the later stage or certain rewards received unexpectedly. Although these problems are not very serious, they do not affect the continuation of the game. But it just makes people very depressed. Many times everyone will think, if only I had added some points like that!

Because everyone has similar thoughts, it is definitely a super happy thing to be able to wash some. Moreover, the further you get to the later stage of cleaning, the more obvious the effect will be. Because as the player level increases, the character's attributes will gradually become fixed. It's like when a person grows up, his hobbies and interests will be fixed. The attribute points and skills of advanced players are almost fixed. At this time, if the attributes can be redistributed. On the basis that the total amount of its attribute points remains unchanged, its combat effectiveness can be increased by at least 20%. This is quite an incredible addition.

"Radamanth, you said this purple Noisy Nest can be washed. Can any player really wash it? Will there be a loss of attributes previously obtained? Will all bonus attributes be retained? You won’t lose your attribute points, right?”

"Normally, of course, you won't lose it, but it's not guaranteed. At least I know there are ways to deliberately cause some people to lose attribute points. But as long as there is no external interference, it is very safe. The transformation process It will not cause accidents on its own. If any accidents occur, they will be caused by external factors."

"Can you tell me the specific method of change, and what happened to the accident?"

"This purple thing is called a mother nest. After you plant it, it will not grow a noisy nest. Instead, it will grow a low, large sarcoma. This large sarcoma is called an evolutionary sac, and it will actively devour anything close to it. The first living body. If you want to wash it off, just approach it and let it eat you. But don’t worry, you will not die or be degraded. This flesh bag will decompose you and then synthesize you again. During this process, you will receive instructions to reassign your attributes, and you can even modify your appearance. And there is no limit to the scope of modifications. Even if you want to change yourself into a monster that no one has ever seen before, you can No problem. Of course, your own volume will not change before and after the modification. After this, it will take about five or six hours of reorganization, and then the flesh sac will quickly wither, and you can come out."

"So, this brood nest can only be used once, right?"

"Yes." Radamance said: "The mother's nest is actually a parasite, and the flesh sac outside is just an eggshell. It only reorganizes the body to give you a stronger ability to protect itself, so that it After living in symbiosis with you, it will have a stronger guarantee of survival. But you don’t have to worry, this mother nest is a plant-like creature. Although it lives in symbiosis with you, its dominant thoughts are completely your own. For For a plant-like creature, as long as it can survive, it doesn't want to control anything."

"So what happened to that accident you mentioned?"

"An accident is an unexpected interference. Because you need to reorganize after being decomposed. If the flesh sac is attacked before complete decomposition, you will die once. But you will not lose your attribute points, you will just die once. However, once The Brood starts to let you allocate points. From this time until you are completely reorganized and break out of the shell, during this process, if the Brood is attacked, you will not only die once, but your attribute points will be reduced. This is specific The amount of reduction depends on the time when the brood is attacked. If you are attacked before you finish allocating attributes, you will become a super useless person with only all basic attributes left after you come out. If it is after this, Then the longer the time passes, the less attribute points you lose."

"I understand. What you mean is that after the Brood breaks you down, all your attributes will be gone. Then the Brood will instill back into you after your choice is completed. If the synthesis is not completed, it means that your attributes are gone. If all the points are not infused back, the sooner they are attacked, the less they will be absorbed. Is that what you mean?"

"Yes, that's it. So accidents do exist, but it's not a big problem. All we need to do is recruit some reliable people to protect the mother nest during the reorganization process. Anyway, the whole process only takes four or five hours, and it's not very long. long."

After listening to Radhamanth's explanation, I thought about it for a while. There are only twelve purple nests in total. If they are all used for washing, they can only be used by twelve people. If this is the case, it can only be used by the main force of the stronger guild. The more advanced players use this opportunity, the more obvious the effect will be. After all, the effect of a person like Kristina increasing her strength by % and an ordinary player increasing her strength by % are completely different! Of course, how to use it depends on the other abilities of this brood. Radamance said that this nest has several uses, and helping people wash is just one of them.

"You just said this is just one purpose of the brood, so what about the others?" I asked Radamance again.
