Chapter 43: The God-Making Plan
"Crackle..."
A huge bonfire.
Burning on a vacant lot.
The flames almost illuminated the night.
Chen Ye and Tang Zichen stood quietly watching.
Of course, they weren't there to play with fire.
They were burning the bodies of zombies.
Although Chen Ye had almost chopped the hundreds of small zombies into two pieces, the small zombies didn't die as a result.
They needed to be burned to be completely killed.
If Chen Ye knew magic, dealing with them would be easy.
But he didn't.
Using fire was the best solution for Chen Ye and Tang Zichen.
It was already late at night.
They had been on edge all night, and moving the bodies of the zombies had also consumed a lot of energy, making Tang Zichen look a little tired.
Seeing this, Chen Ye said, "Class Monitor, why don't you go to sleep first? I'll keep watch."
Tang Zichen didn't agree.
She looked at the evolved zombie under Chen Ye's feet, frowned, and couldn't help asking, "Chen Ye, what do you plan to do with this zombie?"
"For now, let's keep it." Chen Ye smiled and said, "I have a use for it."
The clever Tang Zichen soon realized what Chen Ye wanted to do.
"You're not planning to use its summoning ability to attract more jump zombies to kill, are you?"
Chen Ye wasn't surprised that Tang Zichen had figured out his intention.
Because his idea was easily seen through.
Otherwise, as a man, what could he do with a zombie?
It was normal for Tang Zichen's intelligence to see through this.
"Yes!"
Chen Ye smiled and said, "With this guy here, in the remaining nine days, I can exterminate all the monsters in the secret realm!"
"According to what Teacher Liu said, killing a jump zombie can earn about six potential points. By then, our attributes might even break a thousand!!"
Hearing this, Tang Zichen couldn't help but laugh.
This girl was usually not very talkative, always wearing a cold and beautiful face. At this moment, her slight smile was as lovely as a flower.
"Chen Ye, you're thinking too simplistically!"
"What's wrong?" Chen Ye looked puzzled.
Tang Zichen continued, "There is a reward limit in the secret realm, don't you know that?"
Chen Ye was dumbfounded.
He really didn't know.
Seeing Chen Ye's expression, Tang Zichen shook her head and said, "Think about it, if there were no reward limit in the secret realm, with our country's population and strength, wouldn't we be able to artificially create gods?"
"As long as we dispatch a team of newcomers, all matching C-class hero talents, armed with firearms into the secret realm, catch jump zombies when they encounter them, and then let someone with good talents kill them. Isn't your current idea similar?"
"By then, we could create an unparalleled powerhouse."
"Such a simple god-making method, even I can think of it. Do you think the higher-ups wouldn't think of it? Then why hasn't anyone taken action?"
Hearing this, Chen Ye suddenly realized.
Tang Zichen continued, "The original intention of the secret realm's appearance was to allow everyone to share the monster rewards. Whether it's teleportation location confusion or reward limits, it's all for this purpose."
Chen Ye couldn't help but ask, "Was the reward limit also told to you by Teacher Liu?"
"No, it's on the internet. I guess you rarely go online, right?"
Chen Ye breathed a sigh of relief.
If even this kind of information had to be treated differently by Old Liu, it would be a bit too much. Luckily, Old Liu wasn't that kind of person.
He had just crossed over to this world less than two months ago, so he didn't know that this was normal.
"Was the reward limit tested by someone?"
"Yes, the method I just mentioned was tested by a consortium abroad a long time ago, and that's how they found out about the reward limit in the secret realm."
"What is the reward limit in the secret realm?"
"Each secret realm is different, and the reward limit in the current No. 1 secret realm is 120 potential points per person, regardless of whether you're in a team or not."
120 potential points? So, killing about 20 small zombies individually would be enough! Killing more wouldn't give additional potential points.
Chen Ye furrowed his brow. This limit seemed a bit low! Most importantly, he had just killed over a hundred zombies, so wouldn't most of it be considered a waste of effort?
"Wait a minute!" Chen Ye suddenly realized something and said, "If the reward limit is only this much, why did Lee Jong Hi from Korea kill hundreds of people in succession to feed the Jiangxi? Creating such a tragedy?"
"You don't think it's easy to reach the reward limit, do you?" Tang Zichen said impatiently, "For you, it may be easy, but for others, surviving in the secret realm is difficult!"
"In addition, Teacher Liu also said that when a person is killed by a Jiangxi and transforms into a new monster, the potential points obtained by killing it again are very few."
"Lee Jong Hi had a lot of accomplices at the time. If he didn't create some monsters, how could it be enough to share?"
"Furthermore, Lee Jong Hi's ultimate goal was to obtain additional rewards."
"Additional rewards are obtained by the person who kills the most monsters. He had to maintain the lead in the number of kills for the additional reward... Only such a vicious plan would meet his requirements."
After listening to Tang Zichen's explanation, Chen Ye understood. Everything made sense now.
No wonder no one had come up with a god-making plan. It turned out that the secret realm had long been prepared for, using the reward limit to block unfair competition.
God-making wasn't possible, plus with the teleportation locations being disrupted and the secret realm's map being so large, it was believed that no one would be willing to waste a lot of manpower and resources for a little extra reward.
Because it wasn't worth it.
Unless they took Lee Jong Hi's route.
However, Lee Jong Hi's end was enough to make later generations wary.
...
"Chen Ye, the Jiangxi you just killed are enough for us to reach the highest reward limit and even ensure the additional reward is ours," Tang Zichen said.
Chen Ye was very disappointed. He had been thinking about controlling the evolved Jiangxi to attract a large number of small zombies to kill, and directly reap the benefits! Who would have thought that this BUG had long been fixed.
Suddenly, Chen Ye felt disheartened, as if he had lost his spirit.
He pointed at the evolved Jiangxi under his feet and said helplessly, "So, this guy is actually useless now?"
Tang Zichen nodded and added, "If you're not reassured, you can use it to attract more Jiangxi to ensure that you maintain the lead in the number of kills and get the additional reward one hundred percent."
"By the way, what exactly is the additional reward?" Chen Ye asked.
Tang Zichen said, "As far as I know, the additional reward for the first three secret realms is also potential points, and the quantity isn't too much, probably about a quarter of the maximum reward."
One quarter of 120 is 30.
In other words, the highest they could get in the secret realm this time was 150 potential points.
Arriving at this number, Chen Ye was quite dissatisfied. But no matter how dissatisfied he was, there was nothing he could do.
Since they were already here.
They couldn't just give up, right?
