She is a summoned beast, and she is one with me!
With Monica on board, the team was finally formed.
Linda glanced at a certain deity who was drooling in his dream, shook his head speechlessly, and focused his attention back on the squad module.
In the upper right corner of this interface, there is a passive skill called Captain Aura. Clicking on it will show its specific attributes.
[Captain's Aura: Within a 10-meter radius, all members of the Phoenix Flower Adventurer Team have their damage increased by 10%. This skill's effect scales with the overall level of the team members.]
10%, that's not bad.
According to the game's settings, once the team members' levels increase, this skill can increase damage by up to 30%, which is equivalent to having an extra powerful piece of equipment for free.
Then there's the second function: [The Residence]
In the back house, the team members' chibi-style characters train and produce a currency called diamonds.
According to the system's Q&A sprite, diamonds can be collected once a day. This currency can be used to decorate the backyard and increase the daily diamond production.
You can also buy various guidance vouchers for your team members to improve their attributes, potential, and skills.
After reading the introduction, Linda understood.
This is equivalent to 'pay-to-win' in games!
With enough diamonds invested, even a four-star character can unleash the power of a five-star character!
He clicked on a small wooden house icon and entered the inner quarters.
The scene inside was quite shabby.
A broken window, a leaky ceiling, and rats crawling on the floor frightened a large-headed chibi-style doll that looked a lot like Monica, who sat on the floor crying with a line of small text displayed above its head:
Mood -30%, diamond production efficiency decreases.
There's also a chibi-style Kafni lying on the ground, fast asleep, ignoring the mice crawling all over her body. She appears as a pet in the back courtyard. Her status is displayed: "Good Mood +20%, Production Efficiency Increased."
In the corner of the room, there was a cool, short-haired, animal-eared little man with his hands in his pockets blowing bubble gum, with the message above his head: "Mood so-so, production efficiency unchanged."
These three... were none other than Linda's teammates and summoned beasts!
The information interface shows that the current base diamond production speed is 100. Monica's mood is -30%, and Kaffni's is +20%. With one out and one in, it means that only 90 diamonds can be obtained today!
"How can we get rid of those rats and stop Monica from crying? The ceiling and windows also need fixing!"
Linda felt overwhelmed by the task, scratched her head in frustration, and then clicked on the mouse, prompting a system notification:
[Spend 100 diamonds to kill 1 rat? Current rat count: 15]
Click on the ceiling, prompt:
Should I spend 1000 diamonds to repair the leaky ceiling?
Should I spend 2000 diamonds to repair the broken window?
Click on the house:
Should I spend diamonds to upgrade my cabin to a mansion?
How exactly do I obtain diamonds? I don't see a recharge option.
Linda thought to herself with a puzzled expression.
After browsing through the system's Q&A tool, I learned that there are two main ways to obtain diamonds.
First, you can use Mystery Points to exchange for items. Second, you can use these chibi-style team members to delve into the [Hell Rift], and you will receive rewards for each level you clear.
"Deep into the Hell Rift to get diamonds? This is like turning the web-based mini-game 'Secret Realm Continent' into a system function."
Linda suddenly realized.
Clicking on a deep red and black pit, the screen switched to a top-down view of the auto-battle scene, and his three characters—Lulu, Monica, and his pet Kaphni—jumped into it.
It landed in a dimly lit place, surrounded by torches, in a circular arena-like area.
Three black wolves emerged from an open door.
'The earthquake cracked! '
A line of skill text with exclamation marks appeared above the head of the chibi Monica, who raised her staff high, and brown light shone from it.
The ground around her trembled violently, and the soil transformed into sharp spears that pierced the three black demon wolves.
【victory】
Large, golden characters appeared.
On the checkout screen, Monica smiled shyly, looking both pleased and embarrassed.
Kaphni lay on the ground sleeping, while Lulu kicked at the stones, looking sullen.
Linda obtained 500 diamonds after passing through the first-tier hellish rift.
[System prompt: Automatic exploration?]
Linda clicked: Yes!
During the exploration, he retreated to the back room interface, where the chibi-style characters remained, unaffected by the exploration of the Hell Rift, working diligently like paper cutouts to produce diamonds for the player.
Linda noticed that Monica's mood worsened after she hadn't seen her for a while, dropping from -30% to -35%, and she was so frightened by the mice running around that she crouched down with her head in her hands.
Those wretched rats, how dare they bully my team members!
Linda angrily clicked on the mouse, spending 500 diamonds to kill five of them.
Monica noticed the number of rats had decreased, so she tentatively stood up, patted her chest in relief, and her mood improved by 5%.
There are 10 rats left. Killing them all should make Monica feel better.
