Chapter 88: Chapter 74 Reunion of Old Friends (Seventh Update)

The next day.

Qi Sheng received a superdimensional mental link, informing him that the Decompose function had been completed.

After testing this function, Qi Sheng immediately launched a new round of updates.

Minutes later, Challenger Tips echoed in the minds of all players, and the forum also published the details of the update in real time.

[Challenger Tips (All Channels): The game is about to undergo version 1.4 maintenance update; the content of this update is as follows]:

Poster: Guidance (Verified Official)

Content:

To optimize game content, this update will modify existing features and add new ones.

Update Details 1: Life Soul Decomposition

Introduction: A new Life Soul Decomposition function has been added to the function panel, where players can decompose their existing life souls to obtain 95% of the evolution points refunded.

Tips: The decompose function can only be used on stripped life souls; it cannot be applied to life souls that are still embedded. The evolution points obtained from decomposing can be freely allocated for use on other life souls.

Example: After decomposing a level 10 Black Armored Snake life soul, 3000 evolution points can be refunded, which can be used to raise a level 1 Eagle-Headed Demon to level 9 at 25% progress.

Update Details 2: Evolution Points Allocation

Introduction: Following this update, a secondary panel "Evolution Points Allocation" will be added to the Star Vein enhancement panel, where players can freely adjust the percentage distribution of evolution points obtained from hunting, focusing on nurturing specific life souls to receive a higher quota of evolution points from hunting.

Update Details 3: Trading House

Introduction: A new Trading House function has been introduced in the function panel, where players can list resources they’ve gathered, crafted items, and other goods for sale. Pricing is set freely by players, with each successful sale incurring a 5% sacrificial power transaction fee for the seller.

Tips: Trading House purchases can be retrieved using Guidance teleportation regardless of distance, with an added 1% teleportation fee for trans-regional retrieval.

(This update is an online update; there is no need for players to log off and wait.)

Comments section:

Dark Night Will Come: The surprise came too suddenly. Just yesterday I was discussing the limitations of the Star Vein enhancement with a forum brother, as we couldn’t focus on nurturing specific life souls, and today the evolution points allocation function is released. I’m not sure if the Moon Eclipse Clan officials have been secretly watching or it’s just a coincidence... but I lean towards coincidence since anyone who’s played their previous games knows their style—they act high and mighty, listening to nothing.

Roar Hurricane: Spitting blood in frustration. Just yesterday I stripped the stone-statue ghost life soul to switch to Eagle-Headed Demon, and today they released the stripping and decomposing function. What about my loss from yesterday? Are the damn officials not compensating? I’m so angry I nearly punched a Moon Eclipse Clan member to death.

Beaver: Hahaha, the evolution points allocation and life soul decomposition functions are praiseworthy. No more worries about sunk costs when changing schools now. I give full marks to this update for truly considering the players’ actual gaming experience.

Weapon Master: I love the Trading House feature. Now we can search directly in the Trading House for custom weapons without needing to message privately, just snap them up. Although there’s a 5% fee, efficiency is much improved—a very convenient setup.

Big Killer: Life soul upgrades too slow? Hunting Evil Spirits too difficult? Head to the Trading House to buy Second Generation upgraded spiritual ability guns and Second Generation spiritual bombs. Even low levels can have strong firepower. Everyone who has tried them speaks highly of them.

Moon Eclipse Clan Special Invitee: Hahaha, just when I was thinking of swapping out my Black Armor life soul, this update arrived. Close combat is too lackluster this version, decisively switching to the combination of Bone Fire + Eagle-Headed Demon + Energy Absorption Star Vein, ranged output is the answer this version.

...

By browsing the comments, one can see that players are very satisfied with this update.

The only dissatisfied ones are those who changed their life soul schools right before the update.

Their extracted life souls were refined and entered the Sacrificial Pool without being eligible for decomposition feedback.

Qi Sheng immediately offered a solution to this issue, converting the 95% profit that would have been obtained from decomposition into evolution points and refunding them to the players via email.

Suddenly, the wailing voices in the official update thread disappeared.

With their losses compensated, the earlier complaints turned into praise for the content of the update.

This update also means that players no longer need to worry when pairing different Star Vein School combinations, as they can switch to a new life soul school with just a 5% loss on initial investment.

It will lead to the development and application of more combinations within the Star Vein School.

With the update concluded, Qi Sheng decided to start a new round of recruitment.

After the ravaging Black Tide, the Dark Cave is now empty, and even low-level beginners are choosing to leave Imperial Tomb Village, growing quickly through Hunting Evil Spirits.

In Qi Sheng’s view, the raging Black Tide is very suitable for beginner growth and trials.

As for the recruitment targets, he already has a clear target group in mind.

...

Iron Wall City.

As night falls and the lights come on, a corner of the city hosts the Veterans Bar, currently open for business.

The bar’s sign is shaped like a large black shield, with the words "Veterans" inscribed on it.

Pushing through the doors, the deep, magnetic sound of jazz music slowly flows, contrasting starkly with the bustling modernity outside.

The interior decor of the bar has a retro flair from several centuries ago, its dim yellow light spilling through engraved copper chandeliers, casting a retro glow over the space. Several old, yellowed photos hang on the walls, snapshots of group portraits from the days of the mechanical wars.

The bar is crafted from dark, solid wood, its surface smooth, reflecting the colorful glass bottles and fine bar tools. The bartender, dressed in a classic white shirt and a black bow tie, skillfully shakes the cocktail shaker, while the air is filled with the scents of whiskey, cigar smoke, and a hint of flowers.
