Chapter 94 Startup
The light blue panel unfolded in front of him.
[Villain Life Simulator Starting...]
[Please select the final mission goal of this life simulation:]
[1. Fight for the right of succession as the prince of the Star Luo Empire and ascend to the throne of the Star Luo Empire. Mission reward: 100,000-year soul bone; Difficulty: B]
[2. Steal the emperor's power as a non-royal member and ascend to the throne of the Star Luo Empire. Mission reward: 100,000-year seventh soul ring; Difficulty: A]
[3. Cultivate one person to ascend the throne of the Star Luo Empire. Mission reward: external soul bone; Difficulty: S (Note: If too much help is given to the cultivated person directly during this process, the final settlement ratio will be greatly reduced)]
"Is it the Star Luo Empire this time?"
Su Cheng stared at the light screen in front of him, thinking silently.
According to the order of preciousness, the priority of the external soul bone should be lower than the 100,000-year soul ring, not to mention that this is not the ninth soul ring.
But here, the external soul bone is placed in the S-level difficulty mission reward, which means that this is definitely not an ordinary external soul bone.
Although external soul bones have growth potential and cannot be regarded as ordinary soul bones, there are undoubtedly differences in their advantages and disadvantages.
External soul bones are generally compatible with the soul master's own martial soul attributes, but the soul beasts that produce external soul bones are different, which leads to different skills and characteristics of the soul bones themselves, and their strengths are definitely different.
Take the external soul bones that appeared in the original timeline as an example.
Tang San's Eight Spider Lance, Hu Liena's fox tail, Bibi Dong's six-winged purple light wings, and even Huo Yuhao's evil eyes and dark gold claws later, the strength differences between each other are extremely huge.
"Anyway, no matter what, just pull it up."
With the previous experience, Su Cheng naturally can't choose the second-level difficulty task now.
"However, the more help you give directly, the less the final settlement reward will be. In other words, my task focuses on "cultivation", but I can't help too much in the process of seizing power and usurping the throne."
[You have chosen the final task goal of this simulation: cultivate one person to ascend the throne of the Xingluo Empire. 】
【You can choose one of the following characters as the training target for this simulation: Dai Mubai, Zhu Zhuyun, and Zhu Zhuqing. 】
"Well, these three people..."
Su Cheng looked at the character list and analyzed it habitually.
"Since the three are tied, it means that no matter who you choose, the overall difficulty will not be too different."
After the last simulation, Su Cheng has summarized some rules.
The rewards will inevitably be different between different difficulties.
Even the talent choices given have their own characteristics, and they will definitely play a role in the process of completing the task. There is no useless talent.
For example, the last simulation.
The talents such as "medical genius" that seem to be relatively useless in this extraordinary world are of great help to him in the end. Even if they are combined well, the effect can far surpass the top cultivation talents such as twin martial souls and innate full soul power.
This is enough to explain the problem.
Because in the simulation, what he has to do is to complete the task, and then use this as a basis to measure the balance of gains and losses in all aspects, and he does not need to be so powerful himself.
This is completely different from his demands in reality. After returning to reality, everything will naturally develop with his own strength as the core.
But at this time, the three options in front of him did not have any additional prompts for settlement bonuses, indicating that these candidates actually have their own advantages and disadvantages.
"If I want to continue to accumulate more knowledge in this simulation, I'm afraid I need to think about it carefully. I just need to see where their respective advantages are and eliminate the options I don't need."
After the last simulation, he tasted the sweetness of the knowledge talent of "medical genius".
Is it useful to practice stronger in the simulation? Back to reality, I'm still a weak soul master.
But knowledge can be brought out and lay the foundation for my future development.
Su Cheng looked at the options in front of him and gently rubbed his chin.
"In theory, Dai Mubai should be the most suitable candidate. After all, he is the legitimate heir to the empire. He only needs to defeat Davis to ascend the throne. Identity is his biggest advantage.
"But the question is, can he do this? Dai Mubai's character has obvious flaws. It is difficult to succeed without external help. And it is not easy for me to take action directly. Being in the Xingluo Empire, it is difficult to get in touch with Dugu Bo, and I don’t know if I can get the fairy grass.
"The most important thing is that if I choose him, I am afraid I have to give up my talent for theoretical knowledge."
He looked at the two people behind him.
"Zhu Zhuyun is actually a good candidate. But I don’t know her well enough, and I don’t know how deep the relationship between her and Davis is. But since she can perform the martial soul fusion technique, I think it is not bad.
"If there is no opportunity to alienate the relationship between the two, Zhu Zhuyun may not be willing to backstab Davis. The operation is too difficult.
"On the contrary, Zhu Zhuqing, although her talent is slightly weaker and her status is far inferior to the first two. But she has a tough temperament, which is more important than anything else.
"Talent is not a problem. As long as it is not too bad, there is a chance to make up for it. And those with weak hearts, no matter how strong their strength is, are still weak. ”
[You have selected the training target for this simulation: Zhu Zhuqing.]
[You can choose the initial role:]
[1. A powerful imperial minister, settlement bonus: 0-20%]
[2. The youngest teacher of Xingluo Royal Academy, settlement bonus: 20%-50%]
[3. Theoretically no succession rights for the emperor's illegitimate son, settlement bonus: 50%-100%]
[You can choose three from the following ten talents as the initial talents:]
[Mutated martial soul, innate full soul power, 100,000-year soul ring (ninth soul ring), external soul bone (mask), battle master, sword genius, martial soul scholar, double standard master, full level charm, full level affinity]
[The initial character selected is: the emperor's illegitimate son who theoretically has no succession rights. ]
[The initial talents selected are: external soul bone (mask), martial soul scholar, full level affinity. ]
The main reason for choosing the emperor's illegitimate son as the initial character is not because of the mission requirements.
In fact, Su Cheng wanted to personally experience the mystery of the martial soul fusion technique.
Since there happened to be this option, it naturally could not be missed.
In terms of talent, he did not dare to choose innate full soul power.
As an illegitimate son of an emperor without the right of inheritance, if he has the talent of full soul power, it is purely seeking death. The eldest prince Davis is not a good man.
Su Cheng is still clear about the succession standard of the throne of the Xingluo Empire.
As long as a member of the royal family with the White Tiger Martial Spirit can defeat other heirs, even if you are a illegitimate child, you still have the opportunity to ascend the throne.
The biggest problem with this origin is how to survive the early development stage.
No matter how much Dai Mubai is targeted, he is at least one of the legitimate heirs, and he will not die in an accident before the winner is decided.
If you are an illegitimate son of an emperor with full soul power, don't think about how to support Zhu Zhuqing, just avoid various assassinations first.
On the contrary, if the talent is ordinary, it will naturally not be regarded as the primary target, and Davis does not need to risk angering the emperor to deal with him in advance.
After all, no matter from the perspective of age, background, resources, and identity, he is not a threat.
However, he didn't take the talent of "Kendo Genius" last time, but he saw it again this time.
In fact, Su Cheng really wanted this talent.
But there are three places in total. After choosing a "Martial Soul Scholar", it would be a bit too arrogant to take a "Kendo Genius" that is likely to be useless in this simulation.
This time his martial soul is not a sword martial soul.
As the character and talent selection is completed, the light screen changes again.
[Selectable task mode:]
[1. Guided exploration mode: The simulator will formulate stage task options according to the progress of the task, and accumulate the final settlement rewards in stages. ]
[2. Free exploration mode: The main task is no longer divided into stages, with a higher degree of freedom, but the final settlement will have a certain degree of additional fluctuations. ]
"Is it because of the extra years of energy accumulated?"
Su Cheng thought about it and chose the second option.
He is no longer the newbie he was at the beginning, and can make appropriate choices during the task.
[Free exploration mode has been selected. 】
【Note that everything in the life simulation is a projection of the real world, and it will also affect the fate of this plane. Please take it seriously. 】
【Simulation begins. 】
As the prompt appeared, Su Cheng's consciousness instantly left his body and entered another world that seemed real and illusory.
This chapter took much longer than I thought. I had to carefully consider the talent selection issue, and then reorganized the outline of the second volume, which delayed a lot of time, and it was not completed. I feel like my weekend is going to be gone!
