Ten thousand I am across the heavens

Chapter 2062: Consumption of Wealth

Xu Cheng didn't have much confidence in his willpower. After all, the pain in the virtual world could be reduced to a very low level. He had always activated 10% of the pain level, which allowed him to feel pain, but not unbearable.

Therefore, even if he was blown to pieces during the battle, the pain was actually nothing to him.

But in reality, it was different. He had never experienced the pain of having his soul cut and tempered. However, compared to his own lack of confidence, other people had a high confidence in him. Those who were selected to participate in the soul strengthening project had already passed the Republic's assessment of willpower and were the type with a very strong will.

Xu Cheng is actually the best among them. He is followed by many fans because he trains himself through failure again and again, and even passes the ultimate trial of the first level.

Afterwards, he not only cleared the ultimate trial of the first level, but also successfully cleared all the ultimate trials up to the fourth level.

The later you get, the harder it is to pass the final test. Even though it is different from a real person, it is just a projection of a real person's behavior. It is also very difficult to defeat such an advanced artificial intelligence.

Facing an artificial intelligence that would hardly make any mistakes and had the combat experience of the strongest at that time, he spent countless years in the virtual world honing his skills through failures. Only then did he successfully pass the ultimate trial and reach the fifth level.

Being able to persevere through this repeated training, his willpower was beyond doubt. And at this moment, he was already sitting on the machine that was like a massage chair.

The machine slowly operated. One needle after another pierced his body. According to the current theory in the Shanhe Republic, the human soul is located in every cell of the human body. Therefore, the best way to strengthen the soul is to inject the fragments of the soul into the limbs and bones of the body.

At this moment, in the transparent electromagnetic container, the soul dyed white was pulled out from the channel. Then it was spun rapidly in a centrifuge-like device. It was shattered quickly during the collision. It looked like a white mist and was completely mixed together.

Then, Xu Cheng felt an extremely comfortable feeling coming from his limbs. The kind of feeling that makes people unable to stop. It is comparable to the Western Poison. This is the feeling when the soul is strengthened.

When using the legendary Dandanzhi Gu, you will also have this comfortable feeling. It may even be stronger. In history, many people have been addicted to this feeling of soul strengthening, so much so that their souls have been strengthened to the point where their bodies cannot bear it, and they have directly choked themselves to death.

When the soul is strengthened to a hundred times the level of an ordinary person's soul, it must be stopped immediately and soul training must be started. The soul is not the bigger and more bloated the better. After the accumulation of quantity reaches a certain level, it must settle down and improve the quality, so that it can continue to be strengthened.

One of the great advantages of the soul strengthening equipment at this time is that the soul strengthening steps are carried out by others, and the soul strengthening values ​​are directly presented in the form of data.

This also means that it is impossible to burst yourself because of greed for the joy of soul strengthening. Even if you are still unsatisfied, the person in charge of controlling the machine will stop strengthening at the right time.

As Xu Cheng immersed himself in the comfort of his soul strengthening, he also felt fragments of memory one after another. These fragments were chaotic, just like a chaotic dream. Sometimes he felt like he had turned into a sheep, eating grass. Sometimes he felt like he had turned into a wild animal, eating something like dog food. Or he was running on the grassland.

But none of the memory fragments lasted more than one second. They just flashed in his mind for a moment and then disappeared immediately. The impact of such fragments on his self-personality was almost negligible.

After a while, when his comfortable feeling reached a certain critical value and he couldn't stop, the soul strengthening came to an abrupt end. This stop made him very disappointed, but he had just understood the soul strengthening process, so he forced himself to calm down and didn't struggle violently. He took deep breaths to relieve his inner anxiety.

"As expected of you! You didn't even have any violent reaction at all. I remember that many people who came to strengthen before would beg me to continue when they reached this step. They would even scold me if I refused. You are much more rational than them."

Xu Cheng, who was on the strengthening equipment, was a little embarrassed: "No, didn't they say that if I continue strengthening, it will explode on the spot? I'm just afraid of death."

"Even if it's because you're afraid of death, your willpower is already very strong. Under this kind of super-limit sensory stimulation, the threat of death can be ignored by most people.

Next we will continue. The soul refining process is much more painful than before. Next your soul will go through a thousand cuts and cuts. The originally huge volume will be reduced little by little. It will be gradually compressed and finally form a special soul form.

At present, the use of animal soul insects such as wolf soul insects to shape the soul is rarely used in China, because it will have a certain impact on people's personality. The killing move constructed by the special insects we use will compress your soul into a human form again, consistent with your own self. You should be able to see the changes in your soul when you look inward in a while."

As if he understood that he would be stabbed if he stuck his head out, and that the pain of soul strengthening was unavoidable, Xu Cheng finally nodded to indicate that he should start.

And the next soul strengthening step began. He saw something like a laser gun stretched out beside him. With his experience and knowledge, he could see that each laser gun condensed a soul killing move, which was not too powerful. But it was enough to penetrate his fragile body's defense.

The soul-directing killing moves can basically strike the soul directly. The damage caused may not be very high, but the pain it brings is often very great.

His soul was hit by hundreds of attacks from all directions at the same time, causing him to spasm with pain all over his body. Cold sweat flowed down his body like water. However, his body was firmly fixed on the seat at this time, and he could not break free and could only endure the strengthening process. This step is something that almost all soul practitioners must go through. Shanhe Republic has actually reduced the pain of the soul strengthening process as much as possible.

Xu Cheng was in such pain as his soul was being cut and shattered that his sense of time had gradually become blurred. When the entire course of treatment was finally over, his consciousness was a little fuzzy, and he couldn't remember how much time had passed. He stood up from the chair in a daze and turned back to continue. When he looked at the chair, he couldn't help but feel a little scared.

"What's wrong? Are you scared and don't dare to continue the treatment? I tell you that you can't quit once you've been selected. Although in theory you can refuse the strengthening process, it must be carried out on your own accord. But if you give up halfway, too many resources will be wasted."

The science and engineering man from the Datudingzishan Farm seemed to have seen people give up halfway before, so he was actually a little nervous at this time.

Xu Cheng waved his hand: "I didn't say I was going to give up, it's just that the feeling just now was too uncomfortable, I need to slow down for a while. By the way, how much social resources will my all-round physical strengthening consume? From your tone, it seems that the consumption is huge."

"So far, the resources you have consumed are not particularly large. But if you calculate the entire process, the resources consumed are quite huge. If you want to listen, I can help you calculate it a little bit."

As he spoke, he took out a pen and paper and began to calculate: "The number of beasts needed to carry out the full process of strengthening on my side is roughly 500,000, including several thousand beast kings and thousand beast kings. And dozens of ten thousand beast kings.

I don't know much about the cost of strengthening other processes. But judging from the funds allocated, the cost of my steps is relatively large. It accounts for about 30% of the overall strengthening cost.

If you calculate this way, it will be easier to figure out how much social resources you have consumed."

When Xu Cheng heard that in order to strengthen himself, he had to slaughter 50 livestock, he almost fainted. This consumption of social resources is too huge. Training a Sky Knight. I'm afraid it can drain the power of a family. But think about it. The combat power of the Sky Knight exceeds the peak of the fifth turn. And it's not just a little bit.

For a family without immortals, such a strong fighting force is hard to come by. Even if they drain all their resources, they may not be able to cultivate one. Or it is almost impossible to cultivate one.

At this moment, the calculation was still going on. The science and engineering man patted his shoulder and signaled him to relax: "Actually, you don't need to be so nervous. Although you did consume the souls of hundreds of thousands of livestock, the meat of these livestock is not wasted. It will flow into the market normally. The materials on their bodies will also become the materials used in refining Gu. So the cost is actually not as exaggerated as you think.

At present, the value of the output of a livestock raised here can be roughly divided into three parts: the value of their meat entering the market, the value of their souls, and the value of the special materials produced from their bodies.

The values ​​of the three are basically the same, each accounting for about 1/3. You don't have much idea about the value of Gu refining materials and souls, so let's use the price of livestock meat to convert it.

The supply of meat in the market is too huge. The selling price is actually close to the cost price. For example, the workers who raise livestock in our farms cannot make a profit if they simply rely on selling the meat and materials from these livestock. It is only with government subsidies that they can make a profit.

So we can directly convert the selling price of livestock meat into the cost price for calculation.

At present, the average daily wage of domestic workers can buy about 50 kilograms of meat. However, it is wrong to simply calculate the wages, because the value created by our so-called society is actually much more than our wages. You should have learned these things in textbooks. The extra value we produce was originally deprived by the family or other ruling classes, resulting in our labor being barely able to survive, or even difficult to survive.

And now this part of the value is actually not all in our hands. The state takes this part of the benefits and uses it to maintain the operation of society, including supporting the elderly, building national defense, building infrastructure, etc. So if you calculate carefully, the value created by each of us in social production every day is almost equivalent to a little more than twice the salary we get. Different industries are different, I just take a rough average for easy understanding.

Therefore, the social value created by each person's work every day is roughly equivalent to 300 kilograms of meat, and the lean meat and offal produced by a livestock usually add up to about to kilograms. Let's conservatively estimate that he produces kilograms, which is the same as an ordinary worker. The total output value of three days of work is almost enough to buy a farm animal, which is not much different from what I counted on the farm.

In our area, under the condition of large-scale farming, a farmer can raise more than 100 livestock per year on average.

So we can roughly convert each person's annual GDP into 120 livestock. In this way, we can more clearly calculate how many years of GDP you have consumed? It is roughly equivalent to the annual GDP of more than 4,100 people, and our funds account for a little more than 30% of the total enhancement funds. In other words, the resources consumed by your entire enhancement process are roughly equivalent to the annual GDP of more than 12,000 people. This consumption is actually very huge, and I am calculating this in front of you to make you cherish this opportunity. "

Xu Cheng actually knew from the beginning that this opportunity was hard to come by. But after this calculation, he realized how precious this opportunity was. The total value of 12,000 people working for one year. It sounds like nothing for such a huge country, but if it is converted into one person, it is the total value of one person's 12,000 years of labor. This calculation is very scary.

However, after completing the conversion, Xu Cheng found out after rational thinking that although the resources he consumed were huge, they were much less than what he estimated.
