“Don’t be in a hurry to go back!” Yang Yongle smiled and said, “It’s nighttime now. If you lie down after eating, it’s not good for digestion or maintaining your figure. It’s very easy to get fat! Don’t tell me you want to have a small belly?”
Lao Yao didn’t know whether to laugh or cry. So this was what it was about. No wonder the bunch of girls were sitting in the living room without getting up.
“Hello, Uncle!” At this moment, Ning Jing also spoke. “Come over and have a chat. I heard from Sister Lele that you asked her about the leveling point of Level 5 this afternoon. You reached Level 5 so quickly?”
“Level?” Lao Yao was stunned for a moment. When he went offline just now, he forgot to take a look. He did not know what level he was at now. However, after killing monsters for so long, he should be almost there, right? Hence, he nodded and said, “I think so?”
“What do you mean by that? Are you patronizing us?” Ning Jing was unhappy. “Are you lying to us? There are so many people fighting and killing monsters, and the leveling experience is so high. How can you reach Level 5 in an hour?”
“Are there a lot of people fighting for monsters?” Lao Yao was a little depressed. “Why didn’t I realize that?”
‘Of course you don’t think so. You’re always stealing other people’s monsters…’
However, in Ning Jing’s ears, she thought that Lao Yao had found a place without many people to level up. She was relieved and said, “It’s really difficult to level up. In our team, the highest level is Sister Keke. She’s Level 7 now!”
Lao Yao looked at Wang Ke in surprise. The only girl in this studio who chose the Assassin profession was actually so strong!?
Although she always had a calm expression during the day, making Lao Yao feel that this girl was not simple, he did not expect her to be so powerful. Lao Yao could not help but be shocked.
When she saw Lao Yao looking over, Wang Ke also gave him a rare smile. That look seemed to be a combination of exhaustion and relief, causing Lao Yao’s heart to tremble uncontrollably.
This girl seemed to have been silently working hard for their studio…
“Why? You don’t believe me?” Ning Jing seemed to have been picking a fight with Lao Yao. When she saw Lao Yao and Wang Ke “exchanging glances”, she was even more unhappy. She shouted, “Let me tell you, Sister Keke is very strong. Her initial Agility of 18 points is also close to max. Now that she’s Level 7, her maximum attack power is 95 points!”
“Maximum attack power of 95 points!?” Lao Yao praised. “It’s indeed very high!”
Wang Ke’s initial Agility was 18 points. If she chose a race with Agility bonuses, then every level up would give her an additional 2 points of Agility. Now that she was Level 7 and had leveled up 6 times, it meant that she had gained 12 points. Coupled with the 60 free attribute points after leveling up, if she invested all of them in Agility and plus the weapon in her hand, she would almost have this value.
I wonder how many attacks I will have when I reach Wang Ke’s level? Lao Yao thought.
Wait, maximum attack power!?
After this term suddenly flashed across Lao Yao’s mind, the difficulties that he had encountered in the game previously seemed to have been resolved and he suddenly became cheerful!
“I understand!” Lao Yao suddenly stood up, giving the group of girls a fright. Just as they were about to ask him what was wrong, they saw Lao Yao running upstairs and rushing back to his room.
“Did he eat gunpowder?!” Ning Jing widened her eyes. “Why did he suddenly make such a big move? I was shocked!”
“I don’t know!” Yang Yongle shook her head in confusion. “From the looks of it, he seems to have something urgent.”
“Hmph, who cares!” Ning Jing pouted and snorted. Then, she held Yang Yongle’s arm ingratiatingly and said with a smile, “Sister Lele, let’s go swimming. We’ve just arrived these few days and are too embarrassed to swim in front of that perverted uncle. Since he’s not around now, let’s go to the pool to play!”
“Girl! You’re just thinking about that private pool!” Yang Yongle poked her head in amusement, but then agreed.
“Yay!” Ning Jing cheered and called out, “Sisters, hurry! Let’s go together!”
The group of girls ran to their rooms playfully. After confirming that they would rent Lao Yao’s house, they had secretly bought swimsuits. Now, the swimsuits could be of use.
Wang Ke didn’t go crazy with Ning Jing. Instead, she got up and prepared to return to her room to continue playing. In the end, Yang Yongle saw through her intentions and gently pulled her back.
“Ke’er, relax once in a while. I know you’ve worked hard for the studio!” Yang Yongle persuaded her with a sigh.
“But…” Wang Ke hesitated for a moment. If Lao Yao was here, he would definitely be surprised at how pleasant her voice was.
“No buts!” Yang Yongle hugged her and smiled. “Don’t worry, we won’t be left too far behind. Everyone only has ten hours in the game. When the time comes, they will be forced to go offline. It’s almost time for those who entered at the same time as us to go offline. We can rest in peace.”
“Well…”
After finally getting Wang Ke’s approval, Yang Yongle chuckled and pulled her back to her room to change…
As for Lao Yao, after rushing back to his room, he immediately put on his helmet, pasted the sensor, and entered the game.
After being reminded by Ning Jing, Lao Yao finally realized where his problem was. Thinking back carefully, every time Lao Yao’s critical hit appeared, the damage was almost infinitely close to his maximum damage!
Maximum damage! That was the key!
It was just like the first time he dealt a critical hit to the Wild Wolf. At that time, the damage was 278. Since the critical hit was 200% damage, and it was the combination of the two ultimate skills, the number divided by 4 should be the normal damage value without a critical hit.
This number should be 69.5, calculated as 70.
At that time, Lao Yao’s maximum attack power was 66. Although it was not as high as 70, the damage value of the ultimate skill was 125% damage and 20 additional damage. With this calculation, after deducting the defense of the Wild Wolf, this was about the number.
With this conjecture, Lao Yao once again thought of the few critical damages that had appeared later on. They seemed to be similar situations.
When the Critical Hit appeared, the attack power would fluctuate between 90% to 100% of the maximum damage! In other words, if his attack at that time could only unleash the lowest 22 points, it would be impossible for a Critical Hit to appear!
This hint of inspiration was caught by Lao Yao. His current problem was that if he could control the damage every time and could unleash damage infinitely close to the maximum, there was a high chance that he could control the appearance of a critical hit!
If some powerful programmer understood Lao Yao’s thoughts at this moment, he would probably be shocked. This was because his way of thinking was completely a reverse engineering of the established program!
This was the train of thought. Under normal circumstances, the system would determine if the attack had met the random 5% chance. If it was, then the player’s attack would be infinitely close to the maximum value. Moreover, multiplying this value by two would result in critical damage and there would be a critical hit effect.
Lao Yao’s reverse engineering was to allow each of his attacks to be infinitely close to the maximum damage value that would correspond to the 5% chance.
Whether it was possible or not, Lao Yao still had to verify it in the game. However, to be able to think of such a method that others could not think of was the difference between people…
Wasn’t there a saying? Geniuses came from that 1% of inspiration! The key was whether you could find the hidden breakthrough point.
When Lao Yao went upstairs, he kept thinking about this question. Perhaps in previous games, it was impossible to rely on human factors to control his damage output. However, this was a virtual reality game. Moreover, Lao Yao was a player who had activated Free Mode. Since he could forcefully change the original settings of the system and create a new weapon grip and new skill movements, who could say that he could not create a critical hit?
The more he thought about it, the more Lao Yao felt that he had a high chance of success. Hence, he quickly entered the game and prepared to verify it.
However, when Lao Yao entered the game and appeared at the spawn point of the Wild Wolves again, he realized that the gamers who were fighting monsters around him before he went offline had all gathered together and were even shouting in a mess.
“Hurry up! Warriors, block the position and hold the aggro! Don’t let it over! If you let it over, we’ll be done for!”
“Priest! Priest, heal up! Don’t let the main tank die! Mage, control your damage output!”
“Damn it! That Assassin! Do you think you’re a Warrior?! You actually resisted the monster head-on! Do you know what ambush means?!”
“That’s right. If you die now, no one will pull you up. When the time comes, you can run over yourself…”
The forest at the spawn point was noisy and lively. It made Lao Yao, who had never seen the world, depressed for a while.
“What’s going on? Could it be that the situation of snatching monsters has become so serious?” Lao Yao scratched his head and went forward to see what was going on.
Coincidentally, at this moment, a person who looked like a Warrior retreated from the front. He took out a bottle of red potion in a sorry state and drank it. After waiting for a while, he wanted to rush forward again.
However, Lao Yao pulled him around and asked him, “Bro, what’s going on?”
With this pull, the Warrior was just about to curse when he saw Lao Yao’s appearance clearly. He hurriedly changed his words. “Ah! Brother Expert! You’re online?”
This Warrior was the leader of the previous player team…
Upon seeing Lao Yao, this leader’s eyes lit up. He did not answer Lao Yao’s question. Instead, he grabbed Lao Yao’s hand as if he had seen his own father and said, “Brother Expert, come into our team! Let’s fight the Wolf King Boss together!”
