Chapter 62: Closed beta number exceeds one thousand!

The business of spider silk has no follow-up for the time being, but the amulet of Yan Wang has already shown signs of being in short supply.

As Luo Yan expected, this thing was not only welcomed by the residents of Pine Song Town, but also sought after by adventurers.

After all, for most adventurers, what is terrible is not that the remains are profaned or utilized, but that even the soul is enslaved as a puppet of a necromancer.

Although that amulet cannot compare to the efficacy of holy water, at least it can release their souls from the broken bodies.

Just as the threshold of the Pine Song Town church was stepped over by believers, Luo Yan's "Great Graveyard" finally welcomed the third wave of newbies.

With the completion of the quest 【Ensure the daily net profit of faith value exceeds 1000 points for three consecutive days】, the five hundred closed beta qualifications issued by the Catastrophe System arrived, and another batch of fresh little leeks ran into the venue, making the entire mine tunnel full of *creak-crunch* sounds.

"Ooooooh!!!!"

"It's actually true!!! It's actually true!!!"

"Holy crap, too awesome!"

"Wait, why did you all choose skeleton soldiers?!"

"I wanted to choose a zombie, but you didn't let me choose!"

"If you don't choose a skeleton soldier, do you choose a dwarf or a mount?"

"???"

"Thanks, the dead rat player has been offended!"

These noisy guys still belong to the category of normal players, while some abnormal guys have already jumped onto Sara's counter.

Compared to when she first took the job, Sara's personality was obviously much calmer.

Before, she would be scared to fluff up by these overly excited skeleton soldiers; now she looks at them like looking at restless little cats, and yawning counts as a reaction.

Now is performance art time.

Before these guys vent the excitement in their hearts, no one is going to be useful.

So, the clever Luo Yan didn't pay attention to them at all, ordered Hearing You You to watch over his handsome statue, and decided to close his eyes and sleep in for a while.

He has been seriously sleep-deprived these past few days.

Either practicing Dragon language magic, grinding monsters in the labyrinth, or running back and forth in various places of the Demon King Ridge, acting as an NPC.

He is about to fight the Earth-Dragon clan.

He has to nourish his spirit first.

At the same time, in a corner of the plain square, an unremarkable skeleton soldier was standing in the corner of the skeleton sea, staring blankly at the surroundings, muttering constantly.

"Holy crap..."

His ID is Wang Shi Ru Yan.

Although this sounds like a name full of stories, there aren't actually many stories in it; the so-called past is just junior high and elementary school.

He didn't stand with those skeleton soldiers with low-level tastes, nor did he rush to form a team to level up, but followed the signs on the wall of the mine tunnel, walked all the way to the entrance of the Beifeng mine tunnel, and stood at the end of the winding mountain road.

Everything that came into view left the experience brother stunned in place.

He had always thought that the so-called fully immersive virtual reality game was just a joke, or even a clumsy scam... but he didn't expect that the world presented before his eyes was even more shocking and vast than he imagined!

He sat on the stone pier by the mountain road, letting the field of vision extend continuously toward the distant place covered in clouds and mist along the autumn red covering the mountains and plains.

"Here..."

"It's just like the real thing."

It wasn't in vain that he fought with the black-hearted second-hand dealer for so long!

Sure enough, suffering the bitterness of bitterness makes one a person above people; in an instant, he felt that all the bitterness he had eaten these days was worth it!

At this moment, experience brother didn't want anything, just wanted to sit here quietly for a whole day.

However, misfortune always seemed to run toward the "bitter life"; just as he thought this in his heart, a line of dark green pop-up windows suddenly floated in front of him.

【Low activity account detected.】

【Warm reminder, this game is currently in the closed beta testing stage and has not been officially launched, and the number of accounts that can be maintained is limited. If the player is in a low activity state for a long time, the game rights will be frozen until the end of the closed beta...】

Wang Shi Ru Yan's face changed instantly, his butt jumping up from the ground as if it were on fire.

"Holy crap!"

【Faith Value: 7077】

【Daily Growth: 3120 (+560)】

【Daily Consumption: 1000 (+500)】

Magic workshop of the Demon King Ridge.

Luo Yan, who had slept in for two hours, just woke up yawning, and at this moment was sitting on the bed checking the "financial report" of the Demon King Ridge.

Waking up, he actually increased by 560 faith points.

It seems that the movement Father Mate made is not small.

As for the increase in daily consumption, it is mainly the maintenance cost caused by the new players.

Sixty percent of the players who logged in this time are skeleton soldiers, thirty percent are undead rats, and as for Earth Spiders, they are still few and far between.

But this is up to them.

Anyway, below Black Iron level are all cannon fodder, and choosing what doesn't make much difference to him.

"... Didn't expect that the residents of Pine Song Town don't worship the Demon King, and I can also increase faith value here."

Hearing You You floated to his side and said excitedly.

"That's of course, Great Demon King, after all, Yan Wang is you yourself!"

Luo Yan touched his chin with interest.

"So, as long as it's about my legend, whether it contains the Demon King element or not, I can get faith value?"

Regarding this question, Hearing You You pondered seriously for a while and shook her head.

"Hmm, that's not it either; at least there must be an area of cognitive overlap."

Luo Yan: "Cognitive overlap?"

You You: "That's right, that's right! For example, the amulet provided by King Yama comes from you, and the faith of Pine Song Town residents in King Yama is largely because the amulet he provides can suppress the undead. Rounding it up, people's faith in King Yama is equal to faith in you! This belongs to the area of cognitive overlap."

"For another example, you referred to your own life experience for Yan Wang's life experience! If people also know your life experience, Great Demon King, and find that you are unexpectedly very similar, this can also become a huge bonus point! Of course, because it is too similar, there is also the risk of dropping the vest."

So that's it.

Luo Yan roughly understood what Hearing You You meant.

Simply put, the more similar the personas of the two vests, and the higher the overlap of showing miracles, the more faith value he can share from the "small account."

And if the two vests completely overlap, then there is no question of sharing or not, and people's faith in Yan Wang will directly be transferred to his "main title."

This sounds like the best way to do it.

However, dropping the vest is not without risks.

After all, the worship of King Yama by the vast majority of Pine Song Town residents has a premise.

That is, the entire legend is within the framework of the Shengxisi faith, not in the framework of the Demon God.

Before the faith in Shengxisi in the local area is shaken, taking off the vest may instead cause most people's faith in Yan Wang to return to zero directly. Even if this can increase a little of their fear of the Demon King, it is a losing behavior compared to it.

However, after listening to Hearing You You's words, Luo Yan thought of a good idea in his heart.

That is, the Demon King's belongs to the Demon King, and Yan Wang's belongs to Yan Wang!

In the core territory he controls, he can directly use acolytes to spread the Demon King's faith, while outside the core territory, he can mainly sponge, relying on bards and adventurers to spread Yan Wang's legend!

Not even just Yan Wang.

He can open many similar vests in Shengxisi's territory, and then constantly fleece the church's wool through similar means, until the latter can no longer bear it!

"... I basically understand the situation; I will keep an eye on it."

"Mm-hmm, as expected of the Great Demon King! You grasped the key to the problem in an instant!"

Seeing that the Demon King already understood what she meant, Hearing You You happily offered a rainbow fart.

However, for things like flattery, Luo Yan had long since had his ears calloused, so he didn't take it to heart at all, but continued to focus his attention on the "financial report."

The consumption of faith value these past few days has been a bit high, mainly because of a batch of extra expenses.

On one hand, 100 players rising to Black Iron directly consumed 10,000 faith points, occupying the bulk of the expenditure.

Another is the resurrection cost.

Ordinary players are okay; the basic resurrection cost is only one point. Once they rise to Black Iron level, the resurrection cost starts to go with the level number and race type.

For example, if the player level is lv4 Black Iron-level skeleton soldier, the resurrection cost is 4+5=9 points. If it is a lv4 Black Iron-level Earth Spider, the resurrection cost soars to 4+10=14 points.

Although the overall resurrection cost is in the double digits and below, it still adds up to a not-so-small expenditure, totaling 460 points in three days.

Of course, because of the death penalty, the vast majority of players are relatively cautious when facing life-and-death choices.

Especially players carrying equipment, even if the equipment is registered for ownership, picking it back is ultimately a trouble, and they have to be careful about being fished away by adventurers or monsters.

According to the resurrection expenditure curve, as time goes by, players gradually become familiar with the roles they control, and the resurrection expenditure will generally show a peak at the time nodes when players are densely reincarnated, and then show a downward trend in the following days.

In addition, the faith value from natural growth and accidental gains in these three days totaled over six thousand.

It was also thanks to this income, otherwise Luo Yan's faith value reserve would not be enough for the players' upgrade consumption.

"One thousand players all rising to Black Iron requires a total of 100,000 faith points... hiss, so expensive!"

100,000 faith points is enough for him to impact Bai Yin!

Thinking that the players who rose to Black Iron would soon start impacting Bronze, Luo Yan felt a tingling sensation on his scalp.

No wonder the lives of the chosen ones are not long.

"Have to find a way to suppress the contribution value gain..."

Wait until I impact Bai Yin, then you guys can impact Bronze.

At this time, Hearing You You's voice suddenly came from the side again.

"Great Demon King, the envoy of the Nightmare Homeland has visited you again; your mount Arake is receiving you on your behalf."

Putting away the mirror in his hand, Luo Yan got up from the bed.

"Just in time, I happen to have something to look for them; let that guy wait for me at the old place."

"Got it!"

Hearing You You responded with great enthusiasm, and then floated away happily like a messenger bat. ===== CHAPTER 63 =====
