Chapter 1199: Chapter 466: An Unexpected Choice
Hunchback Woman: "Just now, I received a message from the director, turns out the players entering are the 0 point players!"
And indeed, there’s only contestant 1 Henry Thompson in the 0 point level!"
Museum Director Phoenix: "This means, aside from him, no other player chose the 0 point level.
Understandable, after all, the initial attributes of low-point cards are too poor.
Probably going to be quite hard upon landing."
Hunchback Woman: "Exactly, maybe there aren’t many in the 10-point level either.
Wouldn’t this mean that contestant 1 Henry Thompson has unfairly gained a 20-hour advantage?"
Museum Director Phoenix: "That should be the case. It’s expected that the players are mostly around the average point levels, which are the ones choosing 20 points, 30 points, 40 points."
Ree Shil’s chosen template was neither the [Spirit Master] nor a temporary Fusion of the [Spirit Master].
Indeed, most were expecting him to choose a high-point card, to make an entrance like the Final Boss.
That indeed would have been impressive, but it’s too passive, not his style.
So after some consideration, the template Ree Shil chose was—[Beginning Stick].
He carefully reviewed the rules.
In front of the 1-10 point levels, there was a 0 point level.
Of course, the transformation of a 0 point card into a Puppet would make its basic attributes terribly weak.
If a 100 point card’s combined value is 10, then a 0 point card’s combined value is less than 1.
It’s between 0 to 1 point.
And [Beginning Stick] had its value calculated well, it got a transformation value of 0.99, very close to 1, almost no difference from the 1-10 point level cards."
However it ultimately was a Puppet transformed from a 0 point card, so unless it had passives, the base attributes would still be terribly weak."
But if there was only his single 0 point Dragon card this round, then he could take the lead and develop for 10 hours.
He could even take the opportunity to explore the terrain, environment, and the distribution of the wild monsters."
And [Beginning Stick], being an S-rank card, had the advantage over A-level cards with one extra slot for passives."
In terms of passives, he also did a thorough selection."
In the end, he acquired 5 passives to match this template."
They are:
[Initial Force-S]: Attack power obtains a significant increase
[Spirit Master’s Wings-S]: Volume shrinks by 10 times ([Spirit Master])
[Clan Strength-S]: Every Dragon consumed increases Attack Power by a fixed value ([Soul Dragon])
[Infinite Body-A]: Every time a certain distance is covered, Maximum Life Value increases by a fixed value ([Climbing Dragon])
[Time Baptism-A]: Every time a certain duration is accrued, Maximum Life Value increases by a fixed value ([Time Magic Dragon])
He originally wanted to choose [Five Claws] from the [Five Claws Golden Dragon], that card that regenerates in 5 major categories.
But the [Beginning Stick] template has a special function besides passives.
That is, it inherently covers both seven categories and six categories.
Yes, including New Species Cards as well."
Therefore, the [Five Claws]’ effect was redundant, no need to carry it.
Firstly because the rules demand, at least one passive from the template must be carried.
Therefore, he carried one [Initial Force].
And it turns out [Initial Force] had a feature that he hadn’t noticed Before.
It seems that the passive can be strengthened after devouring other Dragons’ passives. freewebnøvel.coɱ
But [Initial Force] is originally based on amplification from self-value.
Even if Ree Shil doesn’t feed it any nutrients, as long as his own Attack Power goes up, [Initial Force]’s value would increase as well."
Then, to survive he needs to be tanky, only by living can there be DPS.
So, the passives from the two A-rank Cards, were all about stacking Health Points."
He just needed to walk around casually, and his Health Points could grow.
Also, this 10 times volume reduction, Ree Shil had tested it as well."
It simply shrinks the volume, but the movement speed doesn’t slow down due to the reduced step size."
The time one would take to make a single step at normal volume, it could make 10 steps.
Since the speed remains the same, then of course the smaller volume is more suitable for concealment, harder to be noticed."
Whether for running away or Stealth Attacks, he believed it would be very useful."
As for DPS, it’s also unrestricted growth."
He just needed to be able to Eat Dragons."
Initially, none of the players are strong, so the wild monsters in the Instance won’t be strong either."
The strength of wild monsters increases as time moves forward."
Anyway, the competition has just started, and as long as one is serious, even a 0 point player can start monster hunting upon landing."
Furthermore, the starting value of [Initial Force] isn’t exactly overwhelming, but it’s pretty close."
Yesterday, he tried it, and there was no pressure when hunting right after landing."
With the triple growth paths laid out, if he had to evaluate, it would be invincibility in development."
Given himself 100 hours of time, the growth will definitely be stronger than the [Spirit Master] template."
"Man, I am really ugly."
At this time, Ree Shil arrived by a lakeside, where he inspected his appearance through the water’s reflection.
His current form was akin to those small, slender-necked dinosaurs from movies.
Then, his body was of a gleaming, metallic iron-grey color, looking quite bleak.
[Roar!]
Just as he’d paused by the water for a few seconds, a huge gaping mouth lunged up from beneath the water."
This was a water-dwelling dinosaur that resembled a crocodile, with a skin covered in bumpy growths resembling tumors, looking quite menacing."
To note, this was a completely realistic dinosaur World; a slight oversight and one could be killed by wild monsters, no need for other players to deal with you."
But Ree Shil was well-prepared and didn’t panic a bit.
With a turn of his head, he avoided the creature’s lunge, and seizing the opportunity, he bit down on its throat."
Clamping down hard while ignoring the crocodile dinosaur’s struggles, he dragged it onto the shore."
