Game of the World Tree Chapter 157: Crypt Spider
www.lnmao.org, the fastest update to the latest chapters of the World Tree game!
The improved favorability system was like a bowl of water thrown into a frying pan, immediately causing the players to boil.
Some people are happy, while others are unhappy.
While they are not used to it, some players even clamored to quit the game on the official website.
Of course... in the end, it's just talk.
Although the improved favorability and reputation evaluation are harsher, in general this system gives players more bonuses than penalties.
In fact, the players who can get huge bonuses under the new favorability system are the few among the few.
The NPC favorability value ranges from -100 to +100. Li Mu is the only one who has a favorability rating of over 40 among the NPCs he has come into contact with.
The score for reputation evaluation is from 0 to 100. Among the 1,200 players, only Li Mu can reach the full score.
Li Mu is an example. In fact, there are very few players who can reach 30 points in overall evaluation.
So... for most players, everyone’s starting point is still about the same. At least most people will not have a big gap between them.
However, those players with higher reputations do enjoy higher bonuses and are promoted faster.
Therefore, how to improve NPC's favor towards them and how to improve their reputation have become the direction for players to work hard.
However, with further exploration, players discovered that the starting point for everyone's comprehensive reputation evaluation is not actually 0.
The game system will regularly evaluate the player's overall reputation and come up with an average score.
This average score is the players' starting reputation evaluation, similar to an NPC's overall impression of the Chosen One.
Even if you do nothing, you can still get an average reputation rating.
At present, the overall evaluation of players is 5 points, which is neutral.
On this basis, further additions and subtractions will be made based on the overall favorability of the player and the NPC.
The lowest is 0, which is cold.
This discovery brings relief to players who are not used to gaining favor.
At least...as long as they don't act like monsters, they can still enjoy the average reputation rating from the players.
This means that even if some players enjoy higher bonuses, they will not fall far behind as an average.
Of course, those who seek death are really miserable.
Not only are you unlucky, but you also have to enjoy the looks of other players.
After all... no one likes to be held back.
Human beings are highly adaptable creatures.

Players, on the other hand, are more receptive.
After being uncomfortable at the beginning, players gradually accepted the comprehensive reputation rating system.
And those with high ratings have also become the targets of major guilds.
Just the benefit of having a high probability of getting equipment with rare special effects is enough to make most players excited.
While the players were getting used to the comprehensive reputation score, Eve also issued a new main mission.
Different from the previous single mission, this time there are three main missions, namely [Developing Forces], [Exploring Rivendell] and [Exploring the Underground World].
Each main line also contains many branch lines, some of which are fixed in the form of daily tasks and can be collected every day.
Players can repeatedly accept different tasks according to their needs and preferences.
The main task of [Developing Forces] includes [Crop Planting], [Poultry Breeding], [Resource Collection], [Main City Construction] and other side tasks, many of which are daily tasks...
The daily tasks of building the Chosen City have also been included in the branch line of [Main City Construction].
In view of the many additional daily tasks in the main line, Eve also selected some indigenous elves as new daily task NPCs, and asked them to be responsible for issuing tasks.
The NPC of [Poultry Breeding] is the black dragon Myriel.
Although the Elf Forest is rich in products, it can’t bear the players eating too much.
Whether it is for ecological balance or for the perception of believers, the development of breeding industry is necessary.
After knowing the goal of this mission, the little black dragon's eyes lit up and he became excited instantly.
It swore to Eve, touching its conscience, that it would let the players do a good job.
Hmm... As long as the thing is done, I can let it have a tooth ceremony occasionally.
The emergence of the [Develop Power] series of missions immediately aroused the interest of many life-style players who do not like to fight and kill.
At the same time, because the tasks in this series are very safe, it has also become the first choice for players with lower levels.
In this branch of the main mission, many missions involve development gameplay, which is what life-style players love.
For a time, many players chose to stay in the Elf Forest and devote themselves to the cause of development and construction.
Especially the "Cute Committee", which has a majority of lifestyle players.
After completing the human caravan mission, Xiao Xianmiao obtained some seeds of suspected crops, and some interested Druid players took them and began to cultivate and plant them.
Some players began to go to various parts of the Elf Forest with the help of the black dragon Myrel, looking for the cubs of Warcraft, especially those that grow quickly, have a lot of meat, and are easy to feed... They plan to explore breeding. Industry.
Wait, wait, wait...
The main line of [Developing Forces] attracts life-oriented players, while [Exploring Rivendell] and [Exploring the Underground World] attract players who love adventure and combat.
This group of players has the largest number among the 1,200 people.
They accepted the mission one after another and started their own adventure.
Among them, the main line of [Exploring Rivendell] can be divided into branches such as [Searching for Ancient Books] and [Exploring Mineral Lodes].
And [Exploring the Underground World] has branches such as [Mapping] and [Monster Detection].
Because there are no daily tasks in the branches of these two main tasks, Eve does not arrange NPCs for these tasks, but directly relies on the game system to receive them.
Of course, the more important reason is that these tasks involve the expansion of power, and early expansion is accompanied by risks, so Eve must personally control it.
As players explore, Rivendell and the underground world gradually unravel the mystery.
The first is Rivendell.
As the manufacturing capital of the elven civilization thousands of years ago, theoretically there should be many elven relics left here.
However, it is a pity that Rivendell seems to have experienced human plunder.
As the players explored, they found that there were not many useful things to find.
At least... almost all the places that can be explored on the surface have been hollowed out.
However, as players explore further, they gradually find new worlds.
Rivendell was built in a valley, and when it was split in half by an unknown force thousands of years ago, part of the city was buried under rocks.
Thousands of years have passed, and this part of the city has long been buried underground.
While exploring, players were delighted to find that these areas had not been raided by humans.
As they explored, they found a large amount of abandoned equipment. These items were buried deep in the ruins. Players speculated that it might be because almost all of them were damaged, so they were not taken away by human adventurers.
In addition, players gradually discovered more elven crafts, and even some ancient forging equipment, tools, etc...
Although most of them were damaged after a thousand years, some still seemed to be in good condition, and they were all transported back by the players.
Use what can be used, and sacrifice what cannot be used to the goddess to recover the contribution points.
In the process of exploration, players finally encountered the monsters living here.
Contrary to what the players imagined, they thought that Rivendell was connected to the underground world, and there should also be many strange underground creatures.
But in fact, there is only one kind of monster that players encounter——
Spider.
This is a kind of spider whose whole body is covered with jet-black armor. Its shell is very tough, like metal, and its legs are covered with hairs like steel needles.
They come in different sizes, the small ones are about the size of a washbasin, and their strength is about the same as that of goblins.
The big one is almost an adult, with ferocious sickle-like teeth, and its strength even reaches the black iron level.
They are entrenched deep in Rivendell, and the deeper you go, the more you encounter.
After identification, players learned that this spider is called a crypt spider. It is an underground creature with dark attributes. It has extremely sticky silk and sharp fangs. The larger spiders also have Highly toxic.
They feed on other weak underground creatures or minerals, and their entire skeleton is mineralized and extremely strong.
Unlike goblins, goblins are barely half-intelligent creatures, but these spiders are complete monsters.
In addition to their hard shells, their actions are entirely instinctive.
However, because of the hard shells, players have encountered a lot of difficulties when cleaning them.
Ordinary physical attacks are almost ineffective against them.
Fortunately, through exploration, players discovered that these spiders are afraid of light and fire.
Then, players discovered a good way to eliminate them.
That is to lure them into a cave dug in advance, and then throw a light to make them temporarily incapacitated. After the player jumps out of the cave, they can then throw fireballs down wildly.
Burn them.
However, this method can only be used against small spiders.
As for those large spiders, there is nothing you can do.
The large spider is very fast and has a poisonous stinger. Although it is afraid of light and fire, it also has a certain amount of patience and a very tenacious vitality.
In addition, they can also drive little spiders to charge...
A large spider will usually attract more than a dozen small spiders.
When encountering them, unless the players are outnumbered, they can only run...
As players continue to explore Rivendell, they encounter more and more spiders.
This makes players have to wonder whether the reason why humans have not explored in depth is because of the existence of crypt spiders.
However, this still did not dampen their enthusiasm.
Because killing spiders will also give you a lot of experience points!
There are experience points and treasures!
Rivendell has completely become a carnival place for adventure players.
However, unlike Rivendell, where the exploration mission is in full swing, the exploration of the underground world has encountered setbacks.
Rivendell has a huge cave connected to the underground world.
This is also the starting point for players to explore the underground world.
As soon as the players entered the cave, they encountered a big trouble...
They encountered a giant spider that was five or six meters wide!
All attacks are ineffective against the opponent. Even the fireball technique only leaves a few marks on its carapace...
But it has wind-like speed and powerful attack power, and can easily catch up with and kill heavily armed players.
Even the lunch team was completely wiped out by it during the attack...
Players speculate that this gatekeeper spider may have the strength of silver!
Not only that, this giant burrow spider also has three large spider subordinates, as well as hundreds of small spiders...
Players are no match for them.
"It seems that we can only ask the black dragon Myriel to take action again."
In the end, the players had no choice but to focus on the little black dragon.
However, when they found the black dragon who was leading a group of players everywhere in the Elf Forest to find monster lairs and rob cubs, the little black dragon refused...
"Crypt Spider? Several meters big?"
Merrell's face changed.
"No! No! I'm not going! I'm going to send you to death!"
It shook its head and flew away.
The black dragon, who has always been proud...actually got scared.
Only a group of players were left staring at each other.
That big guy underground... is even afraid of the black dragon?
Shouldn’t it?
I feel like it’s not as powerful as the Er Fool Dragon...
However, the little black dragon is unwilling, and the players have no choice.
In the end... they had no choice but to temporarily give up exploring the underground world and continue to explore Rivendell in depth.
And Ben Leng also led his team, no longer going to the cave, but going deep into the elves' ruins.
This time, he took on the side mission of [Ore Exploration].
It's just different from before, this time... there is a little tail behind him.
