Chapter 109: Chapter 108: Spending 160 Million to Buy a Hundred-Meter-Tall Rock Giant?
14th Level Gun Devil vs. 19th Level Insect Tribe Priest.
This was a very exciting battle.
Just as Zhou Shen said, the moment the battle started, this Insect Tribe Priest summoned thousands of various Insect Clan pets, almost filling the entire arena, crowding it so much there was no place to stand.
Just this move alone must have cost at least 20,000 Star Coins.
After all, summoning higher-level Insect Clan pets costs even more Star Coins.
Ordinary people really can't play like this.
The exchange rate between Star Coins and credit points is 1:20.
20,000 Star Coins is equal to 400,000 credit points.
Using a down payment for a house to fight one battle, and the likelihood of benefits not exceeding this amount, how could ordinary people afford it? Many say that "Insect Tribe Priests" and "Giant Riders" are very wealthy.
It's not that these two professions are wealthy, but those without money simply wouldn't choose these professions.
For an ordinary Supernatural, even if the Job Transfer Books of these two Hidden Occupations were given to them, they would rather sell them for money than change their profession, and even if they did, they simply couldn't afford to play.
...
As the battle began, the Insect Tribe Priest's appearance was extremely impressive, with thousands of Insect Clan Creatures summoned, including ranged, melee, and support types, who took their positions and launched an attack on Chen Miao, performing quite remarkably.
Like a legion strictly following orders, an ordinary Supernatural would feel tremendous pressure facing this scene.
With no desire to fight back at all.
If it wasn't for being on the "Virtual Arena," knowing they wouldn't die, they would have fled as far as they possibly could.
Chen Miao's performance, however, was even more straightforward, without a hint of showiness, sticking to his old tricks.
A dense Metal Storm to fend off ranged attacks.
Thomson, firing 20,000 bullets a second, began to clear the field; a few seconds later, the "Insect Tribe Priest" along with the creatures he had summoned turned to ashes.
"..."
"..."
After a moment of dark-faced silence, Zhou Shen's voice came out hoarse, "In Fengtian City's Virtual Arena, the highest-level opponent in the 'Giant Rider' occupation is this 19th-level one. if one were to surpass the 20th level Third Turn, they would be able to control their Rock Giant from an extremely long distance, and even share vision with their Rock Giant, while the summoner themselves could hide in a safe place."
"After the 30th level Fourth Turn, one could sit inside the Rock Giant's head, and as long as the Rock Giant doesn't die, the summoner won't be injured."
"There would be no such drawbacks then."
"But before the Third Turn, indeed, the strength isn't that high in the arena matches."
"Pretty good."
Chen Miao smiled and nodded, looking at the battle replay of the Rock Giant, nearly a hundred meters tall, "How many Star Coins would it approximately take to enhance a Rock Giant to level 98?"
Truth be told, he was quite impressed by this Rock Giant.
In the battle, when he tried to riddle the Rock Giant's arm with bullets, he barely managed to chip off some stone flakes and pits. He basically couldn't penetrate its defense, whereas he could take down a siege boss of teen levels in an instant, and yet he couldn't break through the Rock Giant's defense.
Considering even he couldn't breach its defense, one could imagine the strength of this Rock Giant. It could likely solo a boss without any trouble, by just having the Rock Giant go toe-to-toe with the boss in close combat. Wasn't that basically like carrying a boss with you wherever you went?
"There's some general information online. I do not know exactly how many Star Coins it would take to enhance to level 98, but to enhance from level 0 to 100 would be around 8 million Star Coins. A normal Magician can only enhance up to level 9, which allows the Rock Giant to reach up to 9 meters, and the enhancement would cost about 90,000 Star Coins."
"But generally speaking, normal Magicians seldom enhance Rock Giants. They would enhance other pets with higher levels."
"8 million Star Coins?"
Chen Miao was momentarily stunned upon hearing the figure, his mind struggling to convert the amount. According to a ratio of one to twenty, were 8 million Star Coins equivalent to 160 million credit points?
160 million.
160 million for a Rock Giant standing a hundred meters tall? Was that worth it or not?
"Wait a second."
Chen Miao suddenly realized something, his brow furrowing as he said, "Did you just say there's a 'Giant Rider' in Jingjiu City that has enhanced their Rock Giant to level 999? How many Star Coins would that need?"
"I'm not sure."
Zhou Shen shook his head. "Even if the cost of enhancing each level after 100 is the same as it is to enhance to level 100, it would still be at least 80 million Star Coins. But in reality, each enhancement would cost more than the last."
