Chapter 130
Shu Mo's recent development goals are mainly the entertainment area and the homestay area. The entertainment area has a gratifying income, and she has not let go of the homestay area, and has expanded it by building a few buildings from time to time.
Bao Yunya's family just made a reservation and moved into the brand new building a week later.
The advantage of systematic house building is that you can move in on the day it is completed. There is no need to remove formaldehyde or go through the hassle of moving the house, so the expansion speed is naturally very fast.
After checking in, the family of three began their special swimming training as if they were injected with chicken blood.
Within a few days, information about the swimming pool had spread. Hearing that it could permanently increase physical strength, players flocked in. For several days in a row, the reception hall was packed with people. The front desk staff had to receive countless guests every day and their mouths were dry from introducing themselves to the front desk.
The swimming gear store had been sold out several times, and Shu Mo had assigned a clerk to be responsible for restocking.
Because many players come here to increase their physical strength, many people only buy tickets to the swimming pool. Without wearing the corresponding bracelet, even if they pass by the hot spring pool and want to reach in to take a look, they will be prompted that "the spot has not been purchased yet", which effectively prevents people from taking advantage of the situation.
They had no choice but to head straight to the central building after entering the park.
But if you think about it, selling individual tickets to the swimming pool actually saves them money.
For those who are looking for experience, they have to buy a ticket to the separate hall every time in order to go in for a sauna, and the price is much higher than the 30 points for a single entry to the swimming pool.
However, because the players were so enthusiastic, the swimming pool opened the capacity limit early on, so you can not always go in directly.
During the boring waiting time, most players will stay in the dining area on the first floor for a while, buy some snacks and drinks to pass the time, or simply have a meal here.
As a result, the income of the catering area also increased.
As more and more people came, the players gradually figured out the rules of the swimming pool.
Swim for an hour and you will automatically clock out when you leave the pool.
You can go out to the bathroom and eat during the session. As long as you return to the swimming pool to continue exercising on the same day and meet the time requirement, you can complete the check-in.
But for most people, even if they try hard for an hour, they will only get a 1-point bonus.
There are very few people like Bao Yunya who can get 2 points at the beginning.
She grew up in a coastal city and her swimming skills are unmatched by ordinary people.
The family trained for a few days, spending the same number of points, but Bao Yunyaga's physical strength was twice as high as Xu Jiancheng's. Xu Jiancheng was envious, but there was nothing he could do. He could only grit his teeth and work hard, trying to catch up with his wife's progress as soon as possible.
If you just play in the pool, an hour will pass easily.
But if you want to complete the check-in and ensure the efficiency of exercise, you have to exercise almost non-stop.
Due to the high-intensity training, the father and daughter were out of breath every day when they came out of the swimming pool.
Xu Yao didn't like to move much to begin with, and this time she exceeded the daily exercise requirement. Her appetite increased significantly. At night, she would return to her room, take a bath, and then lie down. She would sleep soundly on the soft big bed in the homestay. Her life was extremely fulfilling.
Fearing that her body couldn't handle it, the couple would take her to a resort every weekend for a full body massage to relax her muscles.
Xu Yao was already in the growth stage of puberty, and after persisting in doing this for a while, her height grew rapidly and her complexion became much rosier. He used to worry about being blown away by the wind after taking a few steps, but now he has a well-proportioned figure and you can even vaguely see the lines of his muscles.
Bao Yunya and Xu Jiancheng were overjoyed and became more determined to continue living in Wenquan.
Perhaps it was the increase in height and physical strength that gave her confidence, and gradually, Xu Yao was not so afraid of monsters anymore.
There are quite a few summoners in the inn, especially in the lawn area by the lake. Summoned beasts are often released and walk around their owners closely. The mimic beasts will also eat and broadcast at the door of the main building on time at dinner time every day.
Xu Yao would occasionally pass by, and T would even have the courage to squat beside her and watch for a while.
The mimic recognized the regular guests in the B&B area, or maybe it was just used to the business hours and pretended not to see them. It chewed chicken claws with its canine teeth and tapped the ground casually with its big tail.
As the sun sets, life in the hotel is slow and leisurely, but it never feels monotonous.
…
【Today's swimming exercise check-in completed√】
Xu Jiancheng climbed out of the swimming pool along the escalator and raised his head almost impatiently.
He had never realized that swimming was such a tiring thing before. It was even more tiring than killing monsters in the wild - killing monsters did not involve fighting all the time. There was teamwork, and time for taking medicine and replenishing supplies in the middle of the game. But swimming was a real one-hour exercise!
I am exhausted every day, and the only consolation is to take a look at the check-in page after finishing.
The "ding" sound effect indicating that the clock-in was completed sounded, which sounded like heavenly music to his ears.
The only drawback is that after looking at it for a long time, he felt that the page was a bit too monotonous.
How great would it be if it could help calculate the calories burned, just like the sauna counts the time spent?
Xu Jiancheng thought to himself.
If there really is a calorie counting function, he can swim two more laps just to make the number round off.
Xu Jiancheng felt relieved, but at the same time he always felt that something was wrong.
Um?
Is he kidnapped by this punch-in mechanism...?
I completed the check-in as usual today, but the sound I heard was a little different from usual.
[Basic Stamina +1.1]
[Current number of days persisted: 30]
[Exercise and check in for 30 consecutive days! marvelous! 】
When reading the last sentence, the BGM suddenly switches to high-pitched and exciting music, which lifts people's spirits.
He looked at the phrase "Great" and felt a little embarrassed. "It sounds like something those sports apps would say in the past."
As expected, with positive feedback, it becomes easier to stick to exercise.
No matter how old you are, you will like the feeling of being praised.
His vanity satisfied, Xu Jiancheng touched the back of his head, feeling both ashamed and enjoyable.
Behind him, Xu Yao followed the queue to get on the escalator. She glanced at the panel and exclaimed, "Why did the increased physical strength change?"
Xu Jiancheng said, "Hmm?"
Xu Yao: "Look, it was always 1 o'clock before, but today it became 1.1."
Bao Yunya followed up and was a little excited when she heard it. "Is the exercise effective?"
But then, she discovered that her numbers had changed as well.
From 2.0, it became 2.1.
A number quietly jumped up after the decimal point, and if you took a quick glance like Xu Jiancheng, you really wouldn't be able to notice it.
After all, before this, they always thought there were only two numbers, 1 and 2.
Not only that, there is also a cluster of small flame icons behind the "Current number of days persisted" column.
It is a light red color, not very eye-catching, but combined with the text below, it makes Bao Yunya think of something.
"So, if I keep punching in every day and accumulate a certain number of days, can I get an amplitude bonus?"
There is such a pleasant surprise!
There are many special facilities in Nuannuan Hot Spring, most of which have their own different mechanisms. For example, the sauna tests your endurance. The longer you stay at a time, the higher the experience bonus you can get.
If the player works hard enough, it is entirely possible to get the highest multiplier bonus in one go.
But after swimming for so many days, players have discovered that after more than an hour, no matter how long they swim, the physical strength gained every day is the same.
They thought that the swimming pool was different from the sauna and did not have a similar mechanism, but they did not expect that it was equipped with a growth mechanism.
Although players cannot obtain a large amount of physical strength bonus at one time, they can gradually improve the effect by checking in persistently.
After careful consideration, Bao Yunya found that this seemed to be more in line with the original intention of the swimming pool to encourage players to exercise every day.
Exercise is not something that can be rushed.
"I don't know what the upper limit of this amplitude is, and how often it will jump up."
After being reminded by the two, Xu Jiancheng was surprised to find his own little flame, and he felt itchy when he saw it.
According to common sense, after the small flame there should be a medium flame and a large flame, right?
Also, this light red color doesn't look cool enough. As the size of the flame increases, will the color gradually deepen, then become a dark red, or even have a gold border or something?
The more he thought about it, the more he couldn't control himself. His whole body seemed to be burning along with the pattern of blazing flames. He wished he could jump to a month later, or swim another 800 meters in the pool.
Bao Yunya was helpless, "...Looking at the current situation, it should increase once every month."
I was exhausted just now, but when I found out that I could get icons by checking in, I suddenly felt less tired.
She was too lazy to pay attention to her husband's useless look. She turned to look at her daughter and pondered for a moment. "It's not easy to accumulate this amplitude. Your father and I usually have to fight monsters. It may be difficult to persist. Yaoyao, you usually live in the barrier and have nothing to do. Remember to come here by yourself every day, and don't miss it."
Bao Yunya tried her best to persuade Xu Yao, fearing that she would not realize the importance of it.
She had finally managed to persist for a month, and if she forgot to punch in one day and had to start all over again, she would be so upset that she wouldn't be able to sleep well at night.
...I don't know if there is a mechanism for re-signing?
Even if I have to spend money to buy a visa replacement card, it’s okay!
Xu Yao listened and nodded obediently, "I understand."
She is already thirteen years old, and she has no problem moving around within the barrier on her own. Even if her parents are not around, she can train on her own.
In addition, the swimming pool had very good safety measures and the lifeguard had proven his abilities many times, so the couple was not worried at all.
*
There is a swimming craze in the Nuannuan Hot Spring.
For players, the redemption formula is roughly like this:
30 points for 1-2 points of stamina, limited to once a day.
If you come every day, you may get discounts. You can "buy" more physical strength for the same price. The more you come, the more discounts you get.
In this case, of course I have to run faster.
This full-scale movement lasted for a while, and some combat players gradually realized that something was wrong.
In addition to physical strength, swimming seems to bring them additional benefits.
For example, some swordsman players can clearly feel that they are swinging their swords with greater force, and fighters are punching with greater force.
In addition, professions such as assassins and archers also feel that their core strength is stronger and the subtle control of weapons has become more precise.
The attack's hit rate also seems to be a little higher.
They didn't realize what was going on at first, until the first player suddenly realized, "Wait, isn't swimming the best way to train arm and core strength? Could this be the reason?"
"To be precise, freestyle is better for exercising the upper arms..." another person recalled, "Different swimming styles mainly exercise different parts of the body. I remember that breaststroke can exercise the leg muscles, backstroke is the back muscles... Butterfly stroke is the chest muscles?"
A knight player suddenly had an idea. "No wonder. I was thinking that it seems to be easier to hold up the shield to block attacks recently. Is it because I have been doing breaststroke and my leg strength has become stronger?"
He said, still a little confused, "When I was a kid, my dad taught me freestyle swimming, but I never learned it. Unexpectedly, I accidentally chose the posture that suits me best."
Everyone's minds were suddenly opened.
"So, different professions can switch swimming styles according to their needs! There's no need to stick to one posture."
"But what if I only know how to swim breaststroke?"
"You're still lucky. Who can I go to cry to when I can't even swim?"
"Pay to learn freestyle, backstroke, breaststroke and other swimming styles, guaranteed to teach you until you learn, 20 points per lesson!"
Those who were quick-witted started their business immediately.
These changes are not special effects provided by the hot springs, but simply the changes that the exercise of swimming brings to players.
Although it is not reflected in the specific values on the player's panel, for long-term battles, especially for those elite players with high strength, every subtle change in the body cannot escape their eyes.
Many times, the accuracy of the operation determines the efficiency of killing monsters.
With the same weapons and attack power, some people can hit the head with every blow, while others can only give the monster a pedicure. The killing speed is certainly not in the same order of magnitude.
Spending the same amount of time, a powerful player can kill three monsters, but an ordinary person can only kill two, and the experience gained is only half as much.
This is where the different levels of gaming experience of different players are reflected.
The stronger the core strength, the higher the level of control over the body, and the more precise the operation will naturally be. Unknowingly, it helped them slowly bridge the gap between themselves and the expert players.
The more these players thought about it, the more shocked they became. It felt like the door to a new world had opened before them.
Why haven't they realized this in the past ten years?
This kind of game is never a simple competition of numbers!
It took me ten years to realize the importance of operation. No wonder I am so bad... Elite players like Jiang Qing must have realized it a long time ago, right?
They regretted it, but some tried to make up for it, saying, "It's hard enough to just kill monsters and level up, who would want to go to the gym to punch in?"
"That's right. Even if we wanted to, we don't have the conditions."
"Stop talking. Now that we finally have the conditions, let's practice quickly..." The person who spoke said angrily, "It's not that easy to catch up with a gap of ten years."
Sometimes, improvement in strength is just a matter of a change in mindset.
At least now, they finally have a direction to work towards.
