Chapter 180: Chapter 104: Incoming Call Request (Request for Monthly Ticket)

Primordial Altar.

Qi Sheng’s consciousness rapidly jumped as he browsed through the torrent of information produced by players.

By personally negotiating with the Moon Eclipse Clan, he had completely resolved the issue of explaining the game’s exposure in the future.

Monster World had been cloaked with the pretext of a secret game developed by the Moon Eclipse Clan, and apart from the 18 Governors of the Moon Eclipse Clan, even its members would not know the truth.

In fact, Qi Sheng had never truly cared about this issue.

He did this merely to facilitate the continued construction of the Player Corps under the guise of a game.

As for when to mass distribute qualifications to the Moon Eclipse Clan, that would depend on the trend of development.

After all, his sacrificial power was limited, and he would still prioritize the Human Clan as the core recruitment target.

When he has accumulated enough sacrificial power, he will then consider the other racial forces on Earth, as well as the Moon Eclipse Clan.

The early contact with the Moon Eclipse Clan was due to the Guidance monitor discovering that the higher-ups of the Moon Eclipse Clan had fallen into despair; thus, he made early contact to give a future filled with hope, incidentally solving the issue of explaining the game after its exposure.

In the eyes of the Moon Eclipse Clan, this is a hopeful turning point for the future, but to Qi Sheng, it is just a minor interlude in passing.

Without dwelling on this issue, Qi Sheng’s consciousness continued to sift through the game content.

At this moment, a post on the forum caught his attention.

The post was published by the well-known Strategy Party player "Dark Night Will Come," and initiated a voting round to rank the strength of the contained Life Souls.

The purpose of the ranking was to select the single Life Soul with the highest strength without combining it with Star Vein.

Each voter could present their rationale for their vote in the post, and if their rationale received a substantial number of player likes, then their voting weight would increase.

The moment the post was published, a large number of players cast their votes and replied in the post.

During this period, the host Dark Night Will Come categorized single Life Souls from T0 to T5 into six tiers and updated the ranking changes in real-time.

After 3 hours of voting, the results had gradually stabilized.

Temporarily ranked as T0 Life Souls, in order of voting count, are: Eagle-Headed Demon (Resentful Chant), stone-statue ghost (Petrification), Energy Absorption, Dull (Domain)

T1 Life Souls ranked by voting count: Black Armored Snake (Fierce Poison), Taunt, Shattering (Sword), Bone Fire, Rushing Thunder.

T2 Life Souls ranked by voting count: Roar, Sweep, Soul Separation, Nether Ghost, Light Shield.

T3 Life Souls ranked by voting count: Resistance, Shu Fu, Forbidden Blade, Flowing Shadow (Avatar)

T4 Life Souls ranked by voting count: Infinite (Sixth Generation), Power Barbarian (Axe), Dusk Shadow

T5 Life Souls ranked by voting count: Mud Demon (Dissolve), Extraction.

...

Apart from the Special Life Soul "Suffering," the ranking included all other collected Life Souls.

Unsurprisingly, the Eagle-Headed Demon Life Soul came in first place.

As the most practical Divine Skill for command in group battles, and a Perception Skill during exploration to avoid sudden dangers, the functionality of the Eagle-Headed Demon has always been ranked first since the game launched, and has never been shaken.

The second-place stone-statue ghost is likewise.

As the core Life Soul for Meat Shield Flow, the strength of the stone-statue ghost is unparalleled, and it is the preferred Life Soul for damage-taking players both in Independent Teams and front lines of group battles.

As for Energy Absorption ranked third, it is the only universal Life Soul among the collected ones.

Its trait effect is to automatically filter energy particles from the air through breathing, replenishing spiritual power, and Qi-Blood consumption.

Before the advent of Healer-type Life Souls, embedding Energy Absorption could save players a significant amount of potions, utilized by both melee and Magic System players.

Especially for Magic players, without the accompaniment of Energy Absorption Life Soul, the duration of continuous output would be greatly reduced.

Among these rankings based on the strength of single Life Soul traits, what surprised Qi Sheng the most was that the ranking of Power Barbarian Axe was listed as T4.

It was one of the earliest collected Artifact Spirit Life Souls, whose effect is that all physical attacks carry the "Barbaric Force" effect, enhancing damage by 50%.

It is also one of the mainstream Life Soul pairings for melee combatants now, hovering at the top priority.

But in the ranking of single Life Souls, its strength is ranked quite low.

After scanning the comments section, Qi Sheng found the answer.

The 50% damage increase effect of the Power Barbarian Axe is based on one’s own Strength as a foundation for enhancement.

Assuming a base damage of 1 for the solitary Power Barbarian Axe, with the addition of 50% damage from the Life Soul trait, the damage dealt without considering the target’s defensive power would be 1.5.

If the target’s defensive power is 1, the damage dealt by the Power Barbarian Axe would be 0.5.

As a purely damage-boosting Life Soul, the damage dealt by a solitary Power Barbarian Axe is far less than that of solely embedded Bone Fire, Rushing Thunder, and other elemental damage Life Souls.

Even less so than the physical effect Stream Swords like Shattering Blade and Black Armored Snake.

Like Artifact Spirit Flow Life Souls, the Life Soul Characteristic of Shattering Blade is to have all physical attacks carry penetration and Shattering effects.

Calculating with a base damage of 1 for Shattering Blade, against a target with defensive power of 1, the Shattering trait could deal about 0.85 in damage.

Calculating with a base damage of 1 for Black Armored Snake, against a target with defensive power of 1, solely based on the Fierce Poison effect, it could cause continuous damage of 1.2.

This is the interpretation posted in the voting thread by players after a detailed assessment of the two single traits in actual combat, receiving a large number of likes from players.

From this, it can be concluded that the Shattering Blade and Black Armored Snake’s strength is far greater than that of the Power Barbarian Axe when embedding a single Life Soul.
