"That's not right!" Bai Ye said, "Why would you go to Salem?"
Since Mechanical Reconstruction was Bai Ye's ability, Bai Ye naturally knew where to obtain it.
Salem was a space station and also a place where Mechanical Reconstruction could be obtained.
However, it was truly not a place anyone could go to at the moment, and it would at least require the world battlefield's progression to enter its mid-to-late stages.
Take Bai Ye himself, for example. Mechanical Reconstruction was his core ability in his previous life. If he had the chance, Bai Ye would definitely acquire it.
Moreover, compared to his past life, since he had obtained it once before, it would definitely be easier for Bai Ye to obtain Mechanical Reconstruction in this life.
However, Bai Ye had no intention of going to Salem at all.
It wasn't that Bai Ye didn't want to go, but that Bai Ye knew going would be suicide. He was currently incapable of surviving in Salem.
No, to be precise, it would be somewhat difficult for Bai Ye to even get to Salem.
In Bai Ye's estimation, to go to Salem space station, at least most people would need to possess two or three red-quality items, and top experts would need at least one gold-quality item or ability before attempting it.
Bai Ye was currently at the acceptable level. The Rumble-Rumble Fruit was indeed powerful, but its proficiency had not yet been improved. Strictly speaking, the Rumble-Rumble Fruit could only be considered the lowest tier of gold quality at present.
Relying solely on this, Bai Ye felt that going to Salem would be quite a challenge.
Given this, why could the Evil Spirit Group go to Salem?
Did the Evil Spirit Group have such powerful experts within it?
On the other side, Gao Ming also showed a look of confusion, wondering, "What is Salem?"
Bai Ye said, "You don't know Salem, so how did you get Mechanical Reconstruction?"
Gao Ming replied, "Wish Task!"
Bai Ye showed a look of realization, how could he have forgotten this?
Indeed, Wish Tasks were precious precisely because they could be used to obtain things that were difficult to acquire at the current stage.
Especially since Mechanical Reconstruction, like the Phoenix ability, was a growth-type ability. Frankly speaking, when first acquired, it was of black quality, and it was truly possible to obtain it through wishing.
Then there was nothing to consider.
Bai Ye decisively said, "I want this thing!"
"Hmm..." Gao Ming pondered for a moment and said, "You'll have to tell me what information you can offer in exchange first."
Oh, so he was playing hard to get now?
Bai Ye was startled for a moment, then patted his forehead.
It was his tone, the excitement he displayed, the excessive eagerness to obtain Mechanical Reconstruction, that allowed Gao Ming to detect some clues.
The core meaning of a business transaction was essentially about who was more desperate.
"Alright, today's a special promotion, I'll give you some explosive news," Bai Ye said, "Do you know about virtual reality games?"
"I do," Gao Ming replied, "I'm from a future technological world. Although my world isn't exactly top-tier, we do have games that create virtual realities in consciousness."
"Oh? If you know, then it's easier to explain," Bai Ye said, "There's a region that belongs to the future technology sector. However, it doesn't have many war-related items, it's a very peaceful area, and in fact, it's an absolutely safe zone."
Gao Ming asked, "There are no absolutely safe zones in the world battlefield, are there? Even safe zones are only temporarily safe."
Bai Ye smiled and said, "That's true, but that region is safe. It's directly protected by the world battlefield. You can consider it the only safe zone. However, nothing that enhances strength can be obtained within that region."
Gao Ming asked, confused, "So, you mean?"
"Be patient, this is the main point," Bai Ye said, "It's a virtual reality game called 'newworldonline', and you can only log in in that region."
"The core lies in this virtual reality game. The game's background is a fantasy setting, similar to a dungeon mode. Players can conquer floors. The higher the floor, the stronger the monsters within, and the better the items dropped."
"Moreover, the rules of this game are that after conquering the boss of each floor, you can choose three game items obtained on that floor and bring them back to the world outside the game. The first floor can yield blue-quality items, the second floor can yield black-quality items, and the third floor can yield red-quality items."
"Therefore, as long as you defeat the boss on the third floor, theoretically, for every person you send into it, you can bring back three blue-quality, three black-quality, and three red-quality items."
Gao Ming asked, "Theoretically?"
Bai Ye replied, "Blue and black are easier to talk about, but the boss on the third floor is not that easy to conquer. Secondly, you can't just swarm the boss in the game. According to the game's rules, there's a limit to the number of players in a team."
"Secondly, you will have competitors. There are already so-called players in the game. You can treat them as natives, and there are no shortage of experts among them."
"Also, don't think that just because it's a game, you won't die. If you die in the game, you're truly dead. It's just named a game, but that place is essentially still a part of the world battlefield."
Gao Ming frowned, "The rest is easy to discuss, but you can't just use numbers to overwhelm it."
Bai Ye interrupted, "Didn't you understand the key point? This is a game!"
Gao Ming asked, "What do you mean?"
Bai Ye replied, "Don't just focus on the fact that you can only bring out three items. You should pay attention to the items you *can't* bring out. The boss is indeed not easy to conquer, but what if you have enough time to spend in it? If you obtain enough red-quality items, you could even challenge the boss solo."
Gao Ming immediately showed a look of realization, "I see. You can only bring out three items, but you can obtain more than three items within the game. Moreover, as long as you have time and patience, the game also has levels, right?"
"Exactly!" Bai Ye said, "But don't get happy too soon. The game's mode does allow you to defeat the boss 100%, but you need to understand one thing: if you spend too much time, even if the items are brought out, their value will be reduced."
"Furthermore, the bosses on each floor can be infinitely refreshed. Since you need to defeat the floor boss to bring out items, everyone gets a share of this. However, some bosses within the game that can produce good items have a quantity limit; once killed, they're gone."
"Finally, you must be cautious when entering the third floor, as there is a very obvious pitfall in the rules..."
Gao Ming interrupted, "The person entering will be trapped inside, right?"
