The next day at 8 AM, Xu Lang got into bed on ti to farm points, then slept for a full eight hours straight.
[Base Nightmare Coins: 56, Conversion Rate: 304%, Total 8-hour production: 226 Nightmare Coins]
[Total Nightmare Coins: 230]
After waking up and glancing at his gains, Xu Lang wasn't as excited as last ti.
There were only a few days left before the ga started. At most, he could only farm Nightmare Coins four more tis. In an extre scenario, that would be just enough to upgrade his Nightmare Bed once.
But back when he first saw that upgrading the Nightmare Bed required one thousand Nightmare Coins, Xu Lang had already dismissed the idea of upgrading it anyti soon.
It was too tight—one wrong move and he could easily crash and burn.
Plus, after getting tainted by Blood Grudge later on, he had even less desire for such thoughts.
"The best approach is to save up enough for two door upgrades... I'd better not use any more Nightmare Coins from now on," Xu Lang contemplated privately.
What a pity.
If only he knew the difficulty level of the next ga, then he could estimate his dormitory's defensive capabilities, deliberately accumulate a batch of Blood Grudge, and wait for monsters to co knocking and deliver points right to his doorstep.
From the veteran players' discussions in the chat room, he had gleaned so information.
For first-cycle players facing a ga, the Points Leaderboard would be open from start to finish. When encountering weaker monsters, veteran players would take the initiative to attack.
If he could make monsters co to him to die, how exhilarating would that be? At that point, it would just be a matter of strengthening his Attack Facility a few more tis.
If veteran players like Xu Ruyan learned about Xu Lang's thoughts, they'd probably be shocked to death.
Others were struggling just to survive, and here you were thinking about luring monsters to farm points?
Xu Lang really had been living too comfortably lately; otherwise, he wouldn't have such bold, unconventional ideas.
Those players who spent their days in constant anxiety definitely wouldn't even dare to think like this.
...
Ti passed, and dayti quickly flew by.
Throughout the day, aside from gaining several dozen new residents, basically nothing happened.
Of course, this was from the perspective of Xu Lang and his group.
Veteran players were exhausting all efforts to scavenge supplies, while new players were racking their brains trying to figure out how to extract more resources from Supply Points without getting caught.
Although it was called rest ti, the competition never actually stopped.
If humans could truly unite, we would have been in space fighting Trisolarans two thousand years ago.
...
Life for the four people in Dorm 200 was exceptionally comfortable.
Cao Yaxuan and the other two won played cards whenever they had nothing else to do, and during their free ti, they could even take out costics and do their makeup.
anwhile, Xu Lang occasionally played poker with them too. The rest of his ti was spent either doing physical training or ditating.
Cultivation was sothing that could beco addictive.
Even though his basic attributes hadn't changed, Xu Lang could clearly feel his condition improving, which proved that the training was effective.
Another ordinary day passed just like that.
The ti for the ga to start was getting closer and closer.
[Total Nightmare Coins: 456]
After routinely checking his gains, Xu Lang opened the chat room.
Today's atmosphere in the chat room was noticeably more tense than yesterday.
Fewer people were idly chatting in the group.
Everyone was thinking about how to develop themselves so they could survive the next round of the ga.
At the sa ti, the number of players in the Mad King Dormitory Building officially surpassed two hundred!
Although the veteran players who transferred over had at most only experienced three ga cycles, they revealed a lot of information.
For example, how to allocate stat points!
"Focusing mainly on Constitution is the most conventional build, suitable for the vast majority of gas."
"Focusing mainly on Spirit specializes against ghost-type gas, but it's quite skill-dependent."
"The best stat ratio is three to one. More extre builds can go four to one. Five to one is the extre among extres—only under special circumstances would soone allocate points like this... For example, a specialized tenant under the leadership of a powerful dorm owner!"
"No rush, no rush. The information isn't very complete yet. Cao Yaxuan and the others' developnt directions will need to wait until at least after the next ga round to be decided. After all, I don't have that many resources left anymore."
Although he was holed up at ho, Xu Lang never fell behind on intelligence gathering.
And precisely because he was staying ho, he had plenty of ti, so he read every single ssage in the chat room.
So far, this piece of information was relatively important; he could discuss it with Cao Yaxuan and the others later.
As for which path he himself would take...
To be honest, he hadn't decided yet.
The ga was still too early stage right now. Newbies like them basically had no career planning, mainly because they lacked that foundation.
Although they had Free Attributes to enhance themselves, they hadn't reached superhuman levels yet. Their main thods of attack still relied on external items and the dormitory's defensive structures.
Moreover, the reason many people could determine their developnt direction was mainly because they had obtained a key item or skill.
Realistically speaking, many veteran players understood the importance of confirming a developnt direction but were still in a state of confusion.
Because they didn't have a decisive core skill or item, they could only go with the flow—this included so Three-Cycle Players as well. This showed that locking in a developnt direction wasn't an easy task.
Not long after Xu Lang woke up, Wang Yazhi and the others also woke up.
Watching Wang Yazhi's slender, beautiful back as she cooked, Xu Lang felt quite pleased.
As the saying goes, you should enjoy life when you can, because you never know when you might kick the bucket and be gone for good.
