The three Great Guardians exchanged glances and nodded slightly. Pharmacist’s Wish seed to want to say sothing, but after exchanging a glance with the Rabbit Heroine, she remained silent and accepted the result.
Without caring about how the three divided the four pieces of loot, the Rabbit Heroine picked up the stone, and the ga imdiately displayed the detailed information of this item:
"Si Wuxie’s Stone of Calamity"
"Grade: ??? (All effects only apply to Real Mode players)"
"Carrying Effect: All damage you cause 9."
"Usage Effect: You gain 7 points of Celestial Calamity Karmic Force."
"Evaluation: The catastrophic relic extracted after Si Wuxie’s complete death, containing fifty percent of all his Celestial Calamity Karmic Force. Ten percent of the force has transford into the Stone of Calamity; destroying the stone can absorb forty percent of the force."
So that’s how it is!
Yan Qing felt enlightened. He had noticed sothing peculiar ever since learning how to acquire Celestial Calamity Karmic Force—why was it preserved in a milestone manner?
This statent isn’t quite accurate because Yan Qing fully understands the official’s rationale. If Celestial Calamity Karmic Force were calculated separately for each character, Real Mode accounts would never qualify to participate in the Celestial Calamity version event, where survival is the main gaplay of Real Mode accounts—it would be impossible to challenge a dungeon 10 levels higher, it’s simply courting death.
But preserving Celestial Calamity Karmic Force as a milestone greatly benefits Real Mode because the milestone can be effective on all Real Mode accounts, and the easiest way to gain Celestial Calamity Karmic Force is by creating a small account to crack low-level dungeons!
Yet this leads to a serious problem: if everyone does this, Celestial Calamity Karmic Force will quickly suffer from inflation. Note that this is a property related to real damage, which can easily break the nurical system if played recklessly.
The Stone of Calamity is the official’s restriction on the Catastrophe Milestone and... a bounty!
Yan Qing sharply noticed that the Stone of Calamity describes ’half of Si Wuxie’s Celestial Calamity Karmic Force.’ If Si Wuxie also has other small accounts, and he himself has never acquired Celestial Calamity Karmic Force, but as soon as he dies, half of the Celestial Calamity Karmic Force from all linked accounts will be extracted!
In other words, players can use small accounts to farm Celestial Calamity Karmic Force, but as soon as a small account dies, half of the Celestial Calamity Karmic Force of all accounts will be reduced!
This is just the surface layer; the deeper aning is that any player can hunt Real Mode players to obtain the Stone of Calamity! Although the Stone of Calamity can only be used by Real Mode players, ordinary players can also acquire and sell it to others!
Moreover, since Real Mode is easier to accumulate Celestial Calamity Karmic Force, as long as resources and karmic force are hoarded in Real Mode, then suddenly feed the new account to Foundation Establishnt or even Immortal Ascension, with suitable build, a dinsional reduction strike can be inflicted on other players.
If forced to describe, it’s actually similar to the search-strike-withdraw mode, where small accounts accumulate resources, then the major account launches a fierce attack. If done well, the major account can even acquire more Stones of Calamity for qualitatively change, reaching the point of nurical collapse, but because it’s Real Mode, no matter how strong the major account is, dying once ans losing everything.
The official permits nurical collapse, permits players to reap enjoynt after long-term accumulation since other players will naturally deal with the first to overreach. As for players in other modes, although their deaths won’t cause a drop in karmic force, since their levels are constantly increasing, the Celestial Calamity Karmic Force they can acquire is limited, so their strength remains under control and will beco the ’invisible hand’ the official uses to balance the strength of Celestial Calamity players!
Truly, it is free competition under a frosty sky, the official probably doesn’t care how Real Mode is played, account cancellation can solve any problem, and thus all interesting and brutal gaplay elents are packed in.
Then I won’t be polite, I will embrace this brutal delight!
"You absorbed 7 points of Celestial Calamity Karmic Force."
"You triggered the Catastrophe Milestone!"
"Calamity: You currently own 11 points of Celestial Calamity Karmic Force, unlocking subsidiary milestone [Disaster][Sigh], accumulating more Celestial Calamity Karmic Force can unlock subsidiary milestone.
Disaster: All your attacks can cause real damage equal to the Celestial Calamity Karmic Force value, currently at 11 points.
Sigh: Any damage you take gains a reduction equal to the Celestial Calamity Karmic Force value (after calculating all damage reduction), currently reducing 11 points."
Reducing damage by 11 points seems not much, but actually... it really isn’t much. This is clearly a milestone prepared for defensive players, if deliberately stacking damage reduction, players can stack up to 85% damage reduction, then further weaken through Sigh, and they can continue consuming Spiritual Jade to maintain a defense barrier, fearing that within the sa rank no one can shake them.
While the Rabbit Heroine absorbed the Stone of Calamity, she and Pharmacist’s Wish had already walked to one side of the back forest. Pharmacist’s Wish was holding Celestial Spirits, her eyebrows drooping, if she had a tail, it would surely be hanging quite dejectedly.
"It’s dragging you down again, right?" she asked quietly, "If not for worrying about , you definitely could have killed them all and taken Si Wuxie’s legacy."
The Rabbit Heroine looked at her with a shocked expression, "Do you think I’m so sort of serial killer? Encountering any issue, I just slaughter everything?"
"But you can."
"Though I can indeed, I’m not planning to trouble them. My brother said, there are many people I can only et once in a lifeti, so do not hesitate over love and hate, if you miss it, it’s gone forever." the Rabbit Heroine said, "I acknowledge their achievents, they deserve this reward."
Even if the Rabbit Heroine said so, Pharmacist’s Wish was still sowhat disappointed.
