Chapter 869 The Role of the Holy Brilliance Stone



When the top players are attacking Tianjie Mountain and the next echelon is preparing to attack the vampire dungeon, Liu Shuai is ready to leave Tianjie Mountain.

Ning Meng finally agreed to his request to go to the cloud country together.

But before that, Ning Meng first told Liu Shuai some key information.

Since the two have logged in for too long, they are now exchanging messages in their respective dormitories.

[Super handsome Ergou: What, you mean to say that Shengyaoshi is the key raw material of top-quality gemstones? 】

Such news is very shocking.

However, Liu Shuai quickly realized something was wrong.

[However, I have also obtained some design blueprints of top-quality gemstones, and there are no sacred stones on them! 】

Liu Shuai was very puzzled.

Although he has lost interest in the mission of Tianjie Mountain.

But he still earned a lot of military exploits, exchanged a batch of gems, and a large number of gem design blueprints.

Liu Shuai originally thought that Shengyaoshi should occupy a key position in the synthesis of high-grade gemstones.

But the reality is completely different from what he thought.

The two are not related at all.

The synthesis of those top-quality gemstones does not use the Holy Glory Stone at all.

[Love to eat lemons: Then can you collect all the materials for even a set of top-quality gemstones? 】

[Unable to collect. 】

Only then did Liu Shuai realize the problem.

Materials are too scarce.

Liu Shuai didn't even bother to calculate how much assets he had.

However, the items he can buy are at least sold by someone!

How can he buy something that is not on the market.

There are some high-level resource areas in Tianjie Mountain, which produce some special materials, but the output is extremely low.

If you collect slowly, you don't know that you will collect until the year of the monkey.

Liu Shuai has a shortcut, that is, to loot the NPC's shop as a wild monster, and there may be special gains.

However, it is not impossible for him to get top grade gemstones.

Don't take such a big risk.

If you really want to loot, you might as well go to the cloud country.

The gems there can be traded with gold coins. Trading there is much more efficient than looting the poor ghosts of Tianjie Mountain.

Now after Ning Meng's reminder, Liu Shuai realized something was wrong.

[If the NPCs captured Tianjie Mountain for the so-called high-level resource areas, the price paid would be too high. Although from the perspective of war, not every war is for profit, but those high-level resource areas obviously do not match. On the NPC's emphasis on Tianjie Mountain. 】

NPC pays attention to Tianjie Mountain?
The empire is controlled by demons and will not return to aid.

Even in the story of the fall of the empire, none of the NPCs here came back to help the empire.

This place is bigger than the Empire.

However, although the high-level resource area here is very precious, it is not enough for NPCs to pay such attention to it!

It's understandable to want money but not life, but an important strategic place obviously cannot be formulated so rashly.

【Love to eat lemons: I investigated Tianjie Mountain, and I can find uses for most of the materials in it. Although I can't fully understand some of the materials, the only thing I don't know is the use of Shengyaoshi. 】

[So, do you think that the sacred stone is the main material of the top-quality gemstone?Or extremely critical material. 】

[Love lemons: Of course it's not just for this reason, do you remember the abandoned land, the NPC shop there has no equipment to sell. 】

[Remember, they have no materials. 】

[Love to eat lemons: Therefore, the materials of the Nine Realms will not appear out of thin air, and NPCs cannot conjure a lot of materials out of thin air by adjusting the data. 】

[It may also be that the NPC has mastered a special channel, for example, the fourth realm? 】

It's not that Liu Shuai is raising the bar, but on this crucial issue, if Ning Meng insists on a point of view, he will be responsible for opposing it.

This will allow you to spot errors and omissions in your point of view.

If Liu Shuai is unwilling to argue with Ning Meng on academic issues, she probably won't communicate with him in the future.

Her personality is such that it cannot represent all girls.

[Love lemons: NPCs don't do business at a loss. 】

Liu Shuai was silent.

He also realized something was wrong.

NPCs don't do business at a loss. Of course, it doesn't mean that NPCs will never lose money. It just means that they must do something out of profit.

The same is true for attacking Tianjie Mountain.

However, in the battle of Tianjie Mountain, the players gained a lot of military exploits, and many players obtained excellent equipment and even gems from NPCs.

So, what did the NPC get after paying so much?

Players can also use the advanced resource area.

Military exploits are just a number, and for NPCs, it cannot be converted into specific value at all.

On the contrary, those items exchanged for battle achievements are all the cost invested by NPCs for this war.

Even when the materials dropped by players from wild monsters are sold to NPCs, NPCs have to spend money to buy them.

However, with the rise of life professional players, players have become less and less willing to deal with low-cost materials to NPCs.

So, where does the NPC get benefits to make up for the endless investment in this war?

There is only one answer left.

[These NPCs released the task of obtaining the Holy Glory Stone before, but after the players encountered setbacks, no players came in to look for the Holy Glory Stone. Then, the NPCs launched the Tianjie Mountain War.

Could it be that this war was triggered by NPCs fighting for the Holy Glory Stone? 】

Thinking of such a possibility, Liu Shuai couldn't help but gasp.

This is too exaggerated!
Is the Holy Glory Stone so important?
[Love Lemons: So I have an idea.Whether it is refining equipment or making potions, if there is an urgent need for a magic material, it can be replaced by magic stone. Magic stone is a cheap general-purpose magic material. 】

[However, although the magic stone is not expensive, it can reach the level that can replace the top-grade purple. The cost often exceeds the value of the material itself, and the gain outweighs the loss. 】

[Love to eat lemons: Of course I know this, but, how much the price of the magic stone is, no one can say for sure! 】

【what do you mean? 】

[Love Lemons: I suspect that the Holy Brilliance Stone may also be a special general-purpose material. When synthesizing top-quality gems, if there is a lack of some magical material, then the Holy Brilliance Stone can be used instead. 】

[Then let me try to verify your conjecture. 】

[Love to eat lemons: However, Holy Glory Stone is very difficult to obtain, we can't just waste it, why don't we collect more information, and then conduct research in this area. 】

[It doesn't matter, you haven't realized yet, if this thing is true, what will it mean? 】

[Love to eat lemons: what does it mean? 】

[Since this world has a complete set of rules, magic stones can replace any magic material, which means that magic power may be the essence of magic materials, and all magic materials have the same essence.

Similarly, if the sacred stone can replace those messy synthetic gemstones, it means that the essence of this world is elements.

We have found the essence of this world. 】
