Chapter 34 Water can conduct electricity, do you understand what I mean?
"No, aren't you only level 14?"
The Jade Emperor was puzzled. "Didn't they say that you can only build your foundation at level 20? The game you play is not the same as the game I play?"
Indeed, according to the official introduction of the game, "Ten Continents" is currently only open to level 20, the highest level of foundation building. But so far, no player has reached level 20, let alone foundation building.
Because the upgrade system and cultivation system of this game are two separate systems, the level will limit the cultivation level. For example, a player will never do any tasks, will never upgrade, and will only practice all day long. As a result, his cultivation level is off the charts, but his level is only in the single digits. Then he will still be unable to draw Qi into his body. This setting is jokingly called "Stuck Cultivation Level" by players.
In other words, one has to reach level 10 to draw Qi into the body, and level 20 to build the foundation.
The Jade Emperor even fell into a state of self-doubt: How could she build a foundation at level 14? Could the NPC have given her a cheat?
Zhao Qing boasted happily: "Yes, that's why Senior Sister asked me to do more tasks these days to prepare for building a foundation. She also gave me a double experience buff that lasts for 24 hours!"
“Why?!”
The Jade Emperor was immediately shocked: "Why did she give you double the experience but still deduct 30% of my mission income?!"
This time, it was Zhao Qing's turn to look at the Jade Emperor with sympathy and even a bit of care: "Get down to business, Jade Emperor. Just now, a player completed the tasks diligently and attended classes every day to gain recognition. He regained the 3 points of favorability that he had lost before! You don't complete the daily tasks, and you don't attend the senior sister's lectures. How could she possibly increase your favorability?"
“…”
Just when the Jade Emperor was about to be defeated, Wang Ergou had already updated the Ten Continents Atlas with the speed of a single man for many years. He asked, "Okay, I have edited the entries in the atlas, and now I am just missing the pictures. Second Senior Sister, would you consider doing this hidden mission with us?"
Zhao Qing hesitated: "I still want to gain experience and level up first. After all, my buff only lasts 24 hours..."
Wang Ergou didn't care at all: "It's okay! Then you upgrade first. I don't think we can handle it for a while. Come and help us after you build your foundation!"
"Okay! By the way," Zhao Qing suddenly remembered some details about the demon, and hurriedly reminded him, "The book says that the demon is a spirit-like Nine Nether Demon that is a combination of Yin energy and resentment. Ordinary swords, spears, and halberds are useless against it. It is more afraid of pure Yang fire and various heavenly and divine thunders. I guess it may be immune to physical damage. You can consider fighting monsters from this aspect!"
Wang Ergou smiled brightly: "It has to be Second Senior Sister! Thank you, Second Senior Sister!"
After saying goodbye to Zhao Qing, the five pig-slaughtering guys gathered together and began to discuss countermeasures.
The Jade Emperor couldn't wait to be the first to speak: "Igotanidea!"
Wang Ergou, who had never passed an English exam, rolled his eyes and said, "Speak human language!"
"It's like this, I got 271 points in comprehensive science in the college entrance examination!"
The Jade Emperor held his head high, patted his chest, and said proudly. Wang Ergou continued to roll his eyes: "Then you failed to make black powder more than a dozen times?"
The Jade Emperor was immediately displeased. He argued, "That's different. The purity of saltpeter and sulfur, as well as the quality of charcoal, all have an impact! And the main active ingredient in saltpeter is potassium nitrate, but -"
"Stop it!" Wang Ergou grabbed the Jade Emperor's chattering mouth and said word by word: "Don't try to explain this to the person in front of you who has never passed the physics and chemistry exams. Just fart if you have to, understand?"
The Jade Emperor nodded reluctantly, and Wang Ergou freed his mouth which had been pinched like a duck.
"Well, I mean, water conducts electricity, you know what I mean?"
As he spoke, the Jade Emperor raised his eyebrows with a lewd expression.
Wang Ergou's eyes lit up, and he stroked his chin and said slowly, "Hiss - what you said... reminds me of the fear I felt when I was dominated by an electrician in a pool under a tower in the Kingdom of Hyrule... Well, what I mean is, where can I conduct electricity?"
"Thermal power, hydroelectric power, wind power, nuclear power, solar power, tidal power, biomass power... er," the Jade Emperor was getting more and more excited. When he saw his teammates looking at him like a fool, he paused unconsciously. Then he gritted his teeth and said, "I don't think we can use any of them. Why don't we try the Thunder Talisman?", facing Wang Ergou's eager expression and wanting to kick him.
Wang Ergou had a blank expression on his face: "Although I have never passed math, physics and chemistry, but are thunder and lightning the same thing? Don't make fun of me!"
"Although it's not the same thing, but!" The Jade Emperor said confidently: "The generation of thunder is the discharge phenomenon after the accumulation of electric charge, so I believe it! The thunder drawn by the thunder talisman is a powerful electric current! It can conduct electricity through the water body and cause a range attack on the BOSS in the water!"
The two players standing by had a somewhat unreliable intuition: "Can this... electrocute the BOSS to death?"
The Jade Emperor spread his hands and said, "In theory, people can be electrocuted."
"Well... let's try it first, okay. Let's try it first."
Strictly speaking, there are many kinds of thunder talismans.
Although a group of players racked their brains to understand why a game had to be so complicated and there were more than a dozen types of light thunder talismans, with their current level of cultivation that had not even reached the foundation, there were only a few types they could use.
Among them, the most useful ones are the Five Elements Divine Thunder Talisman and the Lightning Attracting Talisman. Although drawing the former consumes a lot of spiritual energy, it is quite powerful. The latter is relatively simple to draw, but its power is average, and it can only exert its maximum power during thunderstorms.
Of course, there is another type of thunder talisman that is simpler to draw, called the Five Thunder Talisman, which is a talisman used to ward off evil spirits, eliminate disasters and drive away plagues, and has nothing to do with actual thunder. Previously, some players had made jokes about using this plague-repelling talisman as a thunder talisman to kill monsters...
Ever since experiencing the [Spending the Rest of Your Life] adventure, Thunder Talismans have become a common prop for players - the materials for drawing talismans are very cheap if purchased from Taiping Town, and you can buy a bunch by digging up two spiritual herbs and selling them. Although the success rate of drawing talismans is not high, if you draw more, there will always be a success, and regardless of the power, it is at least a psychological comfort.
This thing is really useful! If you encounter a rabbit or a pheasant, you can use it and it will kill them all. After using it, you can still smell the roasted aroma of protein after high temperature! Before the game updated the public kitchen of the sect where players can eat, the small animals near the sect’s residence were almost destroyed by the players. Even some carnivorous animals migrated to farther places due to the lack of food. This is just a mere fifty players! So, apart from anything else, the backpacks of the five-man team really have a lot of thunder talismans!
