After several modifications, Asho input all the data of the Black and White Witch into the Gospel Book, and finally received a useful answer:
“Cost: 50 points.”
“First conclusion: Practice the Claw faction.”
“The learning efficiency of the Time faction in reality is relatively low. The only suitable place for practicing the Time faction is the Time Continent. Your friend should enhance their combat power by practicing the Claw faction in reality and engaging in high-intensity adventures in the Virtual Realm. This is the most cost-effective choice.”
“The premise is: 1. Your friend does have talent in the Time faction (slightly doubtful); 2. Your friend does possess items that can enhance Claw faction practice by 15% in reality (somewhat doubtful); 3. Your friend can summon two special creatures of the Second Wing level to assist in adventures in the Virtual Realm (strongly questioning whether your friend is lying, as the ability to summon creatures of the same level is extremely rare among Second Wing sorcerers).”
“Therefore, we can draw the second conclusion: Does your friend have a serious illness?”
This Gospel Book is unexpectedly sarcastic…
Since the strategy guide says so, Asho has no reason not to follow its instructions – after all, he spent 50 points and cannot waste them. He equips the Black and White Witch with “Training Gloves” and consumes “Advanced Stamina Potion” and “Advanced Experience Potion,” then fills up all three action points.
However, at this moment, Asho suddenly remembers that the witch seems to have another option – entertainment!
Under the influence of the “Prince of Pleasure’s Twenty-Sided Dice,” agents can also gain magical experience through entertainment. Asho was not interested in this option before because the benefits of entertainment are always lower than training, and it relies on luck – Asho, a low-quality male user who only uses his Weibo account to forward lottery posts but has never won anything, has no expectations for his luck.
But now he realizes that the Twenty-Sided Dice is perfect for the witch’s situation. The trial profession of the witch significantly reduces the learning efficiency, but the pleasure magical experience rewarded by the Twenty-Sided Dice is not reduced, only accepted as a bonus, perfectly bypassing the witch’s negative state.
Asho suddenly realizes – so that’s how it is. Entertainment is not really for entertainment, but a special training method to avoid negative states!
He almost misunderstood this game mechanism. Fortunately, he didn’t arrange entertainment for Sword Girl before, otherwise, he would have missed out!
However, entertainment only takes up two action points. What should he do with the remaining one? Resting is not possible, and training efficiency is low, so it seems that he can only arrange for battles.
In the cultivation strategy, the “Entertainment” option has changed. In simple terms, it now has an additional icon of a twenty-sided dice, which looks like an entrance to an online casino.
The “Entertainment” interface displays two types of entertainment projects: Professional and All-Rounder.
Professional entertainment, such as “Fire Magic Faction – Candle Making,” “Water Magic Faction – Swimming Pool Fun,” “Divination Faction – Hide and Seek,” “Mind Magic Faction – Playing House Alone,” “Truth Magic Faction – Solving Puzzles,” and so on, these entertainments only increase the magical experience of specific factions, but the experience gained is higher.
All-Rounder entertainment, such as “Playing with Mud,” “Catching Beetles,” “Jumping Rope,” “Playing Football,” which are not very specialized, or entertainments that involve multiple factions, increase the magical experience of multiple factions, but the experience gained is lower.
It seems complicated. It’s better to let the witch continue training.
However, this mobile game is designed for lazy players like Asho and provides a thoughtful option –
“Random Game: Random entertainment project, can only obtain experience in a certain magical faction, but with an additional 10% experience bonus.”
That’s it!
“Activate the inherent talent of the Final Observer and log the Black and White Witch into the Sorcerer’s Manual?”
Asho is taken aback, realizing that the Sorcerer’s Manual needs to be bound to an agent in order to arrange their schedule, just like Sword Girl.
A thought suddenly pops into his mind – if he draws a new agent in the future but there is no space in the Sorcerer’s Manual, can he delete an old agent to make room for the new one?
This thought only flashes through his mind, and Asho selects “Confirm.”
“Sword Girl’s cultivation strategy: Training, Training, Battle.”
“Witch’s cultivation strategy: Entertainment (Random Game – Claw faction experience), Battle.”
After arranging the cultivation strategies for the witch and Sword Girl for the week, Asho closes the Gospel Book. At this moment, the young butler finishes smoking a cigarette, extinguishes the cigarette butt in his palm, stands up, and says, “Miss has two requests for you all.”
Everyone looks up at him.
“First, you are not allowed to leave the house for now.””Secondly, you are temporarily forbidden from practicing any sorcery faction.” Pancake paused, “At most, you can read the tool books of the sorcery factions, but Miss hopes that you can play as much as possible and do less serious work.”
Asho was stunned – was there such a good thing?
Igura seemed to guess something, “To prevent our actions from ‘polluting’ our evaluations?”
“Exactly.” Pancake patiently explained, “Your learning efficiency will be recorded by the Gospel Book. The more diligent you are in learning, the deeper the Gospel Book’s understanding of you, which is very unfavorable for you to become Echoers. On the contrary, the more lazy you are, the Gospel Book will overestimate you. After all, you all have the backing of the two-winged Artificing. When it finds that you are not very hardworking, the Gospel Book will naturally elevate your talent.”
I see, it’s just like a study show-off, who seems to do nothing serious every day, but in fact, they have finished studying all the books for the whole semester before the school starts, just to appear effortless and let everyone overestimate their abilities.
Compared with Igura and Harvey, who are eager to progress, Asho is extremely happy this time – yay, everyone is lying flat with me!
“Lis, you can play as much as you want during this time… Why do you look like you’re not very happy?”
Lis, who was looking in the mirror, seemed very conflicted (///￣皿￣): “Where do you see that I’m not happy? I’m very happy, daddy!”
“At least put on a happy face to fool me!”
Pancake said, “Speaking of which, I haven’t introduced you to the various facilities in the house. There is a library, swimming pool, shooting range, audio-visual entertainment room, simulation game room, and fun game room. Gun sorcerers are not allowed to enter the shooting range, water sorcerers are not allowed to enter the swimming pool, and illusion sorcerers are not allowed to enter the simulation game room. Please follow me…”
“I’m not interested.” Harvey stood up and said, “I’m going back to my room. Please help me buy a box of catnip.”
Pancake was slightly taken aback, “A box? Are you sure?”
“What kind of grass? Vegetables?” Asho asked curiously.
“Does Harvey look like a good boy who eats vegetables? He’s more likely to eat corpse beetles.” Igura muttered, “There are only two possibilities for him to take the initiative to make a request, either it’s related to corpses, or it’s…”
“Catnip is a very niche category of tobacco.” Pancake emphasized the word ‘niche’, and everyone naturally understood – others ask about the direction of development and whether they have a girlfriend when they get points, but Harvey is practical, asking if there is a substitute for moon sugar here?!
Watching Harvey go back to his room alone, Asho was a bit confused, “Can the necromancy faction increase resistance to poison? Even if he has resistance to poison, but his consumption of hallucinogens should strongly affect his consciousness, right?”
“Maybe he just wants to affect his consciousness.”
Igura glanced at Asho, “Although the stars are beautiful, they are out of reach even if you stretch out your hands; although the gutter is dirty, it is a place of rest as long as you lie down.”
“Not everyone wants to stay awake.”
Asho said, “Isn’t this the time for you, a mental sorcerer, to play your role? You specialize in psychological therapy! Harvey is on our side now, why not help him recover to normal?”
“Firstly, if judged by the standards of the Blood Moon, Harvey is very normal now.”
Igura said indifferently, “Moon sugar is one of the classic drugs of psychotherapists. If you go for psychotherapy, nine out of ten will recommend you to take moon sugar, and the last one will recommend you to buy some stronger dancing powder on the black market.”
“Secondly, do you think I have the energy to deal with other people’s psychological problems now?”
The fraudster met the gaze of the heresy leader and sighed softly, “Asho, you are stronger than all of us.”
Asho was taken aback and shook his head, “I just have experience, that’s all.”
