Chapter 3919 [Ga...], Activated!
...The auction for the final share of the road beacon dividends was not very intense.
Firstly, the final dividend does not involve the content [design] of the layered world, which means there is no revenue from the excavation of the heritage... Secondly, the starting price of 100 million also deterred most customers.
Besides, both the Heavenly Court and Paradise are clearly scrambling for it, so this last share of the profits is actually impossible to distribute.
Let's just watch the show.
Surprisingly, this last item in the auction did not fall into the hands of "Heaven" or "Heavenly Court"—but rather into the hands of that equally mysterious fellow who had previously bid against the mysterious big shot in Box 3.
The transaction price was... 400 million!
Of course, the mysterious big shot in VIP box number 3 also made a bid along the way—as for why this mysterious big shot ultimately failed to win, it is unknown whether it was because he spent too much money in the eighty-first level of the world, or something else.
In conclusion, the three rounds of auctions have come to an end, with each item finding its place, bringing joy to some and sorrow to others.
"Finally, distinguished guests who have acquired the [Design] rights to the Layered World content, please proceed to the hotel's main conference room shortly," Hathaway concluded. "There are some specific matters regarding the [Design] that need to be communicated to the owners... Thank you again for your presence and support of this auction. We have prepared a sumptuous celebration banquet for you..."
Blah blah blah!
……
……
"As for the specifics... there won't be any hidden problems, will there?"
Lord Raguel's spirits recovered considerably the moment the auction ended—although he didn't get more floors than Ziwei Old Dog this time, the two sides were even, so Michael could barely explain himself.
As for the final ownership of the complete road sign... that will take a long time!
According to the rules of the "Journey to the West", it is unknown when the main characters will reach their destination. However, no matter how long it takes, it is worth waiting for the immortals.
That's the beacon of the fourth node—to put it bluntly, it's an entry ticket to the fourth node, an opportunity to leap from the Void [Radiant Moon] to a higher level!
In the words of the Heavenly Court, it is equivalent to an opportunity to ascend to the upper realm.
It's important to understand that currently, apart from the Beacon, there's no other way for someone to directly advance to the fourth node of the [Primordial] realm... not counting being brought in by a true master of the fourth node!
If you don't find the landmark on your own, even if you're led in, it's useless. You'll be automatically expelled soon enough. It's just a sightseeing experience... and you can't really do anything about it.
"My lord, how about... we bring two [Holy Angels] to accompany us this time?" the priests hurriedly suggested.
Raguel rolled his eyes. "Doing this will only make Joan of Arc look down on you even more. Don't bother with these useless little tricks. Actually, I'm quite looking forward to the upcoming briefing."
"Why?" The priests were taken aback.
"because……"
……
"Heh, this way we can finally see what kind of background that mysterious guy in box number 3 is."
[Emperor Ziwei] said calmly at this moment.
The results of this auction, while not perfect, were actually enough to satisfy the Jade Emperor. As for what happens next, we can plan for it later.
Hotel staff outside the door have already come in to show us the way.
[Emperor Ziwei] naturally brought along [Zhenwu] and [Venus]... As for Heavenly King Li Jing, he returned immediately after the auction ended to bring the news back to [Lingxiao Palace].
……
……
The designers of the eighty-layered world were naturally not all eighty people—the Heavenly Court and the Heavenly Kingdom made up the majority.
The rest, most of them, only gained the right to design layers of the world.
There are naturally two special ones among them—the mysterious big shot who has the design rights to the 81st layer of the world, and the one from the first layer of the world... whom everyone privately calls the vengeful seed!
According to the currently announced rules for the "Journey to the West", as long as the first layer of the world is strong enough and can withstand the test for a long enough time, then the time left for exploring the subsequent layers of the world will be longer!
But ultimately, the main characters must reach the finish line, otherwise they won't get their share of the final beacon rewards—so, knowing exactly when to get the main characters through is crucial.
At the very least, you need to make the owners of the next layer of the world feel that the exploration has been sufficient, right?
At the very least, you need to completely drain the second layer of the world to avoid losing money, right?
Take your seat...
It was clear that none of them knew each other very well, and they couldn't even call each other by name—but that was understandable, given how vast the void was, it was normal not to recognize each other.
As for the locations of "Heaven" and "Heavenly Court," no one stepped forward to disturb them—who knows if the bigwigs of these two sides were still angry about the imperfections of this auction?
At this point, it's best to avoid trouble and keep quiet while making money... Anyway, these big shots will definitely release information later that they want to acquire Daobiao and share the profits.
—It all comes down to which side offers the higher price!
The person who explained the design of this content was not Hathaway, but a young man with black hair and a cold expression—many people had already seen this young man when they were invited to the auction.
Chen Mingming... a high-ranking Dark Soul!
……
"How could it be this guy..."
In a corner of the briefing, Odin, the king of gods who had come with a son of a god and a daughter of a god, couldn't help but frown slightly.
As the saying goes, even a broken ship has some nails. Although Asgard was severely damaged, the realm still exists. This time, the god-king Odin gritted his teeth and took out a huge loan to forcefully acquire the design rights for three layers of the world: the seventh, twelfth, and twenty-eighth layers.
This already makes them the party with the most design rights, aside from [Heaven] and [Heavenly Court].
"Father God, this...this guy won't make things difficult for us, will he?"
The goddess whispered with some concern.
The god-king Odin calmly said, "The shop is a large and well-established business. It's not worth breaking the rules over such a small matter. Please calm down."
However, Odin, the king of the gods, had a flicker in his eyes, as if he were somewhat guilty.
"Too……"
……
"I'm sure you all already know me, so I won't go into too much detail," Chen Mingming said calmly. "Now I'll be explaining some design considerations for the content of the Exterior World. Also, please keep quiet during the explanation. After the explanation, I'll have time for questions."
The venue was quiet.
Chen Mingming nodded, then turned on the projected screen, which displayed more information about the [Kasyapa] world—even the time when the [Kasyapa] world was roughly born during the Void Old Gods Era, and the history of [Kasyapa] up to the point before the protagonist group's preview began.
This part requires careful reading, as these historical timelines alone can reveal a great deal of information about the Old Gods era—it's extremely valuable!
How much would it cost to buy this from those guys in the Secret Society?!
However, it's clear that even the Secret Society might not be able to obtain this information—because it's already noted on the screen that there are no Secret Society scribes in the Kasyapa world.
After everyone had finished reading, Chen Mingming continued playing the next PPT and slowly said, "In order to protect the rules and ecology of the [Kasyapa] world to the greatest extent, all designers will appear in the layer world in the form of descent."
"When you designers arrive, you will be automatically matched with the highest power in the current layer of the world. However, at the same time, you can only choose to use either the [First Element] or the [Second Element]!"
"It must not cause a large number of deaths among the native inhabitants of the layered world."
"The belief can be freely spread."
"The original history of the [Kasyapa] world must not be drastically distorted. Minor modifications are permissible, but clues must be left behind to give the main characters a chance to unravel the mystery..."
"The mining of the small world's essence in the current layer world must not exceed 17.7% of the current layer world's essence content. Anyone who violates this rule will have their content design authority revoked and their corresponding beacon revenue share cancelled!"
Upon hearing this, some participants couldn't help but want to speak, but ultimately held back. After all, they really couldn't afford to offend the shop; they could just kick you out whenever they wanted, and the worst part was that even if you searched the entire void, you wouldn't find anyone who could seek justice for you...
The number 17.7 is also significant—it represents the absolute limit to which the essence of a small world can automatically recover.
Of course, recovery will be an extremely long process.
However, compared to the legacy of the old gods and the future beacon dividends, this part of the mining volume seems less important... it only serves to replenish the wallet a little.
Something is better than nothing.
Next is about the attitude towards the main characters – they can be killed, even outright, because the main characters have the characteristic of [returning to the starting point upon death]. As long as the members of the main characters can mentally withstand it, they can be killed ten thousand times starting from the second level.
However, if the second layer really manages to wipe out the main characters and force them to give up, then all the owners will forget about receiving the final beacon dividends.
The shop didn't specify the appropriate level of understanding, clearly leaving it to the designers to figure out on their own—this is obviously another big pitfall.
Chen Mingming spoke for about ten minutes before finishing, and then said, "Next, it's time for questions."
At this moment, it was naturally the big shots who spoke... All eyes turned to [Raguel] and [Emperor Ziwei], as well as the mysterious big shot in VIP room number 3.
This gentleman, although he saw the real person... still couldn't tell who he was—because this big shot was wearing a Hard-Boiled Superman mask in a very unique way!
It's a classic red and white design, and it's the kind that looks really plasticky, the kind that you'd find for about ten yuan at a roadside stall!
Even with such a cheap mask, you just can't see through it!
Isn't that infuriating?!
"Can we only descend alone?" Emperor Ziwei asked directly at this moment, "A layer world is so vast, we can't expect the designers to do everything ourselves, can we?"
"Of course not." Chen Mingming smiled slightly. "Regarding the manpower issue for all of you designers, we have prepared a special system for you, named the [Designer System]. Through this system, you can obtain some resources from the design layer world... As you all know, this is the [Designer System]."
The screen transitioned to a detailed explanation of the [Designer System]... After glancing at it a few times, [Raguel]'s eye twitched slightly, and he exclaimed, "Wow!"
Simply put, the so-called "Designer System" is actually a card pool—this is to conform to the model of the "Kasyapa" world, which is based on the principle of card power.
Designers can put the manpower, equipment, and even treasures they need into the card pool of this [Designer System], and then obtain what they want by drawing cards.
Mission card pool, weapon card pool, item card pool... and so on.
There is no limit to the amount that can be put in, but it will be graded according to the size of the characters or items put in. According to the division of the [Kasyapa] world, the highest level is the nine-star gold card.
However, the card pool will also contain a large number of cards that already exist in the [Kasyapa] world—meaning it's a mixed pool between the designer and the [Kasyapa] world!
"To ensure everyone's design work can be completed smoothly, all card pools have a pity system." Chen Mingming said expressionlessly, "Every ten-pull guarantees at least one Silver six-star to nine-star card. Every ninety pulls, there is a guaranteed Gold six-star to nine-star card... In addition, every time a new world layer is cleared, a specific prize pool will appear for a limited time. After one hundred and eighty pulls, the specified card will appear."
Even the [Ziwei Emperor] felt a stomachache right now... So after spending so much money to buy the design rights, he still has to keep spending money on gacha pulls?
"This...this is too unfair! Don't tell me that drawing cards also requires using Origin Units..." This is the voice of a designer who is already somewhat frantic...is this what everyone is thinking?
“Drawing cards requires a special item.” Chen Mingming remained expressionless. “It’s called [Kasyapa’s Fate], and it’s sold in the [Designer System]’s shop. It requires [Kasyapa Coins]. As for how to obtain [Kasyapa Coins], it is indeed through the World Origin recharge method… Of course, there are ways to play with recharged items and ways to play without spending money. I’m sure everyone here will weigh the options themselves; we’re not forcing anyone.”
"..."
Chen Mingming cleared his throat, "Currently, the [Designer System] shop will be launching a seven-day event where recharges will grant double [Kasyapa Coins]... Furthermore, the double event will reset once every nine levels of the world are cleared."
"..."
Chen Mingming coughed lightly again, "In addition, the [Designer System] has also developed a recycling option. If you find any valuable items while exploring the layer worlds, you can also exchange them for [Kasyapa Coins] through the recycling option... That's all!"
Raguel was no longer able to speak.
—Seriously, you could really just rob them outright…
The questions continued.
We all know how hard it is to make money and how difficult it is to get by... But since we've already fallen into this trap, we can only try our best to find loopholes in the details—even if we can't find any, at least we won't get scammed again!
Therefore, the questions asked became increasingly trivial.
Chen Mingming did not show any impatience and answered even the most trivial questions to the best of her ability without any ambiguity.
About two hours passed quietly like that.
Chen Mingming looked around. "So, does anyone else want to ask a question?"
The scene was quiet.
Chen Mingming nodded. "Alright, then I hereby announce the commencement of this [Kasyapa's Journey to the West]!"
