PDLP Chapter 147 is too conservative, comrades.
Chapter 147 is too conservative, comrades.
It's so curly, it's really curly.
Even refining a pill has resulted in a mythical quality.
[Immortal Grade Qi Gathering Pill] increases spiritual energy absorption efficiency by 600% for two hours, and has a very small chance of sudden enlightenment.
What does this mean?
This means that, if he wanted, he could maintain a cultivation speed of six times the normal speed 24 hours a day!
As for the so-called "extremely low probability", Chen You didn't take it to heart at all.
Even a small probability can't outweigh a large number of cases!
The pills in his backpack were enough for him to take for 18 hours.
And the new seeds in the medicinal herb field will be harvested again in twelve hours.
Perpetual motion has been perfectly achieved!
All-you-can-eat!
"Ordinary Qi Gathering Pills... can be given as a benefit to the comrades in Project Dragon Scale."
Chen You was in a great mood and chose to leave the Origin Realm.
……
Qinling Command Center.
Chen You suddenly opened his eyes, and deep within them seemed to still linger the starlight.
A thought suddenly occurred to him.
A pill, entirely purple-gold in color and imbued with the essence of Dao, appeared out of thin air in his palm.
The rich spiritual energy instantly dissipated, making the temperature of the surrounding air seem to drop a few degrees.
"Yes, it can be removed, that's good."
Chen You nodded in satisfaction, put away the pills, and left the room.
In the hall, Li Guoan, Zhang Yunhai, Sun Feng and others were sitting around a small table with steaming hot soy milk, fried dough sticks and steamed buns on it.
When Chen You came out, Li Guoan waved to him.
"Have some, it was just delivered and it's still warm."
"Okay."
Chen You didn't stand on ceremony. He walked over in a few steps, picked up a small steamed bun, and stuffed it into his mouth, his cheeks bulging.
He chewed and mumbled, "Director Li, you've got something good."
As he spoke, he opened his palm, and five or six Immortal-grade Qi Gathering Pills lay there quietly, their purple-gold radiance instantly attracting everyone's attention.
Chen You swallowed the steamed bun in a few bites, took a sip of soy milk to smooth things out, and then briefly recounted how he turned alchemy into a rhythm game and eventually created a mythical quality pill.
After hearing this, the entire command center fell silent for a moment.
Data team leader Sun Feng adjusted his glasses and muttered, "They've turned cultivation and alchemy into a rhythm-based beat 'em up game..."
"Did achieving a godlike rating lead to an improvement in the quality of the elixir?"
He felt that his data model might need to add another highly weighted variable: "player initiative".
This is no longer science, this is metaphysics, no, this is a victory for gamers.
However, Li Guoan's focus was completely different.
He glanced at the pills, a hint of approval flashing in his eyes, but quickly regained his composure and asked in a deep voice:
"The pills are a good thing; they can greatly improve your cultivation efficiency. But the important matter is more important."
His sharp gaze locked onto Chen You.
"Any progress on that Ancient God quest?"
Upon hearing this, Chen You's expression also turned serious.
He synchronized the information about how the ancient gods were actually the world's leaders.
This includes encountering the Shadow Apostle, passively participating in the sacrificial ritual, and finally leading to the world boss "Shadow King" and triggering a server-wide announcement.
Upon hearing keywords such as "World Boss," "24-Hour Countdown," and "Server-Wide Announcement," the atmosphere in the entire hall instantly shifted from the joy of a successful outcome to the grim atmosphere of impending battle.
"It should be... not a big problem," Chen You concluded.
Tactical team leader Zhang Yunhai frowned. "The world leader's system isn't exactly friendly to us."
"Universal participation, dynamic scaling of levels, ranking by damage contribution... these three things mean that our greatest strength and weakness coexist."
"The advantage is that Chen You is still in the newbie protection period, so he doesn't have to worry about being surrounded by other players and can focus on outputting damage without distraction."
"But the downside is that damage contribution is ranked, not who lands the final blow. This means other guilds will participate as a team."
Zhang Yunhai sat up straight.
"Rankings must include team-based elements."
"The system should calculate the total damage dealt to the BOSS by all members of the team and rank the team based on that."
"This means that other top guilds will inevitably assemble their strongest five-person elite teams, concentrate resources, and work together to deal damage."
"You may be powerful, but in the end, you are all alone."
"In the final damage statistics, you may be surpassed by a top-tier team with excellent teamwork."
"That's right," Pan Yu, a social relations expert, nodded in agreement.
"This world boss fight is essentially a server-wide GvG preview disguised as a PvE event!"
The atmosphere suddenly became somewhat heavy again.
However, Chen You's expression remained unchanged despite the solemnity of the occasion.
He had naturally already considered the issue of forming a team.
However, before he could speak, Sun Feng, the head of the data team, adjusted his black-rimmed glasses and stepped forward.
"Our data team has a different perspective on this."
Sun Feng's voice was calm and clear as he reached out and pressed a button on the control panel next to him.
A huge virtual light screen unfolded in front of everyone, displaying densely packed data models and graphs.
"Please take a look, everyone. This is the preliminary damage assessment model we have established based on Comrade Chen You's damage output capabilities."
On the screen, a red curve, at an extremely steep angle, far surpassed the blue baseline representing the "average level of players of the same level".
"Based on model calculations, using only the first two moves of the 'Heaven-Shattering Sword Technique,' Comrade Chen You's damage per second (DPS) against a single target at level 20 is..."
"That's already 37.4 times that of an average level 20 player."
"hiss……"
A collective gasp filled the hall.
They knew Chen Youqiang, but they didn't expect him to be so strong—it defies common sense.
Sun Feng ignored the shock of the crowd and continued to explain calmly.
"This result is still from the most conservative calculation method we used because we couldn't accurately calculate the specific bonus coefficients of the Heavenly Rank cultivation technique."
"Furthermore, Comrade Chen You's data after reaching the fifth level of Qi Refining is relatively limited. If we follow the calculations..."
He reached out and tapped the light screen, and the red curve surged upwards again.
"The conclusion is," Sun Feng said, looking at Zhang Yunhai, his glasses reflecting the light of the data stream.
"For a five-person team to surpass Comrade Chen You in total damage, each member of the team must have at least ten times the output ability of players of the same level."
"Furthermore, this peak output must be maintained throughout the entire BOSS battle without any mistakes."
"Team Leader Zhang, do you believe such a team exists?"
"..." Zhang Yunhai fell silent.
After a long pause, he shook his head, a bitter smile on his face.
"It doesn't exist. Let alone ten times, even three times is probably the work of a rare genius."
One force can overcome ten techniques.
Faced with overwhelming and absolute data, any tactical coordination seems pale and powerless.
All the experts looked at the lonely yet domineering red curve, and then at Chen You, who stood calmly beside it.
His gaze had shifted from solemn to a complex mix of awe, fervor, and disbelief.
It turns out that what they considered the "limit" couldn't even reach his "benchmark".
Chen You couldn't help but smile inwardly.
"Only 37.4 times? That's too conservative, comrades."
He secretly grumbled to himself.
After a long silence, Li Guoan slowly stood up.
He didn't look at the data or anyone else, but walked to the window and looked out at the Qinling Mountains shrouded in mist.
His voice was calm, yet carried an undeniable weight.
"A crushing victory in output, excellent. This means that taking first place is inevitable for us."
"but……"
He turned around, his gaze sweeping over everyone present like a hawk's before finally settling on Chen You.
"We've learned our lesson the hard way; nobody knows what unforeseen events might occur atop the snow-covered sacred mountain."
"We must not let our guard down."
At this point, Li Guoan suddenly changed the subject.
"Little Chen, how many gold coins do you have left? Should we top up another hundred million?"
