379: The first rookie adventurer of level 74 in the Demonic Continent

Chapter 378: The First Level 74 New Adventurer on the Demon Spirit Continent

But soon, Trundle showed a look of reluctance, because this so-called "fast refresh" had a terrible prerequisite.

"Dick... then can you use my divine power to ensure that ape-type Beasts will definitely be refreshed?"

"Of course not. Only the supreme God of the Underground City can do something like this!"

Hearing Dick's denial, Trundle's heart immediately sank by more than half.

As everyone knows, the number of Beasts in the Underground City always maintains a certain quantity, fluctuating slightly up and down based on this.

Simply put, whenever a Beast dies, after a period of time, the Underground City will refresh a new Beast.

According to Dick's method, he used his divine power to speed up the refresh rate of Beasts, but what if the refreshed one wasn't a female Magic Ape?

Beast refreshing is purely random. Level, gender, type... everything is random.

If the refreshed Beast wasn't a Mother Ape or a young ape, then in pursuit of efficiency, wouldn't Dick have to carry out slaughter after slaughter?

Constantly clearing the Underground City, and then constantly accelerating the refresh... Repeating this process can indeed refresh the desired Mother Ape and young ape in a short period.

If luck isn't enough, make up for it with frequency.

However, for his own selfish reasons, he would let the entire Underground City flow with blood, creating thousands upon thousands of killings.

This method... is simply too cruel!

Although Trundle wasn't close to Beasts, he wouldn't indiscriminately kill the innocent. The kindness in his heart made it difficult for him to accept Dick's method.

Through the window, Trundle saw Dahuang in the distance. This magic dog had transformed into a human form and was talking to the girls with a fawning expression.

She bowed slightly, her furry tail wagging up and down, not minding at all letting the girls take turns petting her, and even showing pleasure in it.

At this moment, Dahuang was like a poor, destitute child tasting ice cream for the first time in her life.

On the cruel Fourth Floor of the Underground City, no one had ever petted her fur like a pet. Those adventurers were all fierce and menacing, and Dahuang didn't dare to go near them at all.

But now, being treated as a pet by the girls, an inexplicable comfort grew in Dahuang's heart. She felt like a lost traveler who had finally found her home.

Beetroot oil dogs are inherently gentle, submitting meekly like sheep. Even the Level 50 Dahuang was like this; she was a natural pet.

With no combat power, her main purpose was companionship.

And there are many more Beasts like Dahuang in the Underground City.

Since birth, she had never harmed anyone at all, eating only vegetables and no meat, just peacefully staying in her own territory.

If Trundle agreed to Dick doing this, what difference would there be from an evil god who indiscriminately kills the innocent?

"Dick, just to refresh suitable Mother Apes, you would have to kill countless innocent Beasts... I absolutely disagree!"

Looking at the determined Trundle, Dick chuckled and shook his head, waving his hand, "You've misunderstood. I'm not such a cruel person."

In fact, if he could complete the task immediately, Dick wouldn't care about the lives of innocent Beasts at all; he wasn't a sentimental saint.

The reason Dick wouldn't carry out a large-scale slaughter in the Underground City was that it was too inefficient and also meaningless.

Having been reborn a hundred times, Dick understood the Underground City, this world wonder, very well. He knew its operating principles better than anyone.

The same Underground City cannot continuously and unlimitedly refresh Beasts. It needs rest and time to recover.

If all the Beasts in the White Roland Underground City were slaughtered, and then Trundle's divine power was used to accelerate, a completely new batch of Beasts could indeed be refreshed immediately.

But doing so would also empty the energy of the White Roland Underground City. After slaughtering all the Beasts for the second time subsequently, it would no longer be able to refresh!

For the Underground City, refreshing Beasts consumes energy. The higher the level of the Beast, the greater the consumption.

Trundle was clearly overthinking. White Roland was just a C-grade Underground City. It couldn't withstand round after round of sweeping slaughter.

Even those famous S-grade Underground Cities could only be swept three or four times at most, after which they would no longer be able to refresh new Beasts.

The energy stored by the Underground City is limited. Once it is exhausted, it needs time to recover slowly. Repeated refreshing is simply unrealistic.

After listening to Dick's explanation, Trundle was even more confused. "But just now, you clearly said they were refreshed by the Underground City..."

"Heh heh, the method is indeed this method, but the specific operation needs to be changed."

Dick poured Trundle a full glass of wine, then said slowly, "We can narrow the scope. Instead of the entire White Roland Underground City, we'll change it to the Secret Treasure Room!"

Every layer of every Underground City has a Secret Treasure Room, where countless rare secret treasures are regularly refreshed.

However, most adventurers are more accustomed to calling it by another name - the BOSS Room!

Income is often directly proportional to risk. The Secret Treasure Room will refresh the Floor BOSS, which is the most powerful Beast on the entire floor.

"Lord Trundle, I will use your divine power to speed up the refresh rate of the BOSS Room, and find your family by continuously refreshing the BOSS."

"Unlike other places in the Underground City, the BOSS Room doesn't refresh just any Beast. It will only refresh Beasts with strong combat power!"

The setting for the Floor BOSS is the strongest Beast on the entire floor; its combat power must be high. Therefore, it is absolutely impossible to refresh weak Beasts like Dahuang.

Moreover, as everyone knows, BOSS refreshing has another rule - only Beast races that have appeared on this floor will be refreshed in the room.

For example, if snake-type Beasts have never appeared on a floor, then the BOSS on that floor will absolutely not refresh snake-type Beasts. This is a rule summarized by adventurers over millions of years.

As long as these two rules are utilized effectively, the problem becomes much simpler.

As of now, in the White Roland Underground City, only the Second Layer and the Fourth Floor have had ape-type Beasts appear.

Dick spread out the information provided by Vaseline and analyzed, "Historically, a total of 492 types of Beasts have appeared on the Second Layer, of which 198 types had strong combat power."

"And a total of 348 types of Beasts have appeared on the Fourth Floor, of which only 168 types had strong combat power, and among them, three types were ape-type Beasts!"

"In other words, if we choose the BOSS Room on the Fourth Floor, there's a 1/56 chance of refreshing your family!"

Trundle suddenly understood, finally grasping Dick's method, and his joy was evident.

The three types of Magic Apes that had previously appeared on the Fourth Floor were all types with strong combat power, and all could potentially be refreshed in the BOSS Room.

Dick's move directly filtered out 180 types of Beasts with low combat power, and even came up with this 1/56 probability.

"But this way, won't we still have to kill innocent Beasts?"

Hearing this, the corner of Dick's mouth twitched, left somewhat speechless by Trundle's saintly heart.

"You should think of it this way..."

Dick let out a light breath and began to persuade, "The mission of the Beasts in the BOSS Room is to guard the secret treasures inside."

"Adventurers must risk their lives to kill the BOSS to obtain the secret treasures. This is something that has been repeated in the world for millions of years, and no one finds it inappropriate."

"And for you, your family is the secret treasure. Your act of killing the BOSS is no different from that of an adventurer, and it is a matter of course..."

Under Dick's persuasion, Trundle finally accepted this logic.

But for the sake of legitimacy, Trundle also planned to go to the guild, register as an adventurer, and use this identity to challenge the BOSS on the Fourth Floor.

...

One day later, the first Level 74 new adventurer on the Demon Spirit Continent appeared.
