Chapter 4150 Level Choice
"The Stone Table Conference?" Laplace muttered to himself, then suddenly nodded. "That's a good name."
Angell pointed to Gray Porcelain and Gabriel: "They took it."
Gray Porcelain and Gabriel chuckled.
Laplace: "Since you two are so eager to express your opinions, then let's have you two give your opinions first at this 'Stone Table Meeting'."
Gray Porcelain, Gabriel: "..."
The theme of this "Stone Table Conference" is also very clear: which level should we choose to conquer next?
Although Ivda brought information about the "Golden Land," it doesn't mean they will choose it.
When choosing a level, suitability should be the primary consideration.
"Which of you two will speak first?" Laplace glanced at them.
Gray Porcelain was silent for a moment: "Lu Nuo hasn't arrived yet. Why don't we wait until Lu Nuo comes before we talk about it?"
"No need to wait for Lü Nuo, he's gone to interpret the Dream Starry Sky." When Angell was eavesdropping on other levels from a god's-eye view, he also took the opportunity to check on the Dream Mirror members, and Lü Nuo was naturally among them.
Gray Porcelain hesitated for a moment, then slowly raised her hand: "Then I'll go first."
"Personally, I think it's worth a try... the Golden City."
After Gray Porcelain finished speaking, neither Angell nor Laplace made any comments, but simply nodded slightly and looked at Gabriel.
Gabriel extended his tentacles, manipulating the illusion puppet, and said, "I just analyzed the Golden City carefully, and it seems to be a mechanic-based level, but at the same time it also has high-intensity combat. In comparison, I think it might be even more complex than Nereid."
Although Nereid has mechanics, there's no need to strategize; just understand the mechanics and fight directly.
As for the Golden Land, it has mechanisms, requires strategic maneuvering, and involves fighting against the Golden Phantom... In Gabriel's view, there are too many things to consider.
Moreover, it is difficult to make full use of one's strengths.
Therefore, Gabriel personally prefers...
"Angels on earth."
After some analysis, Gabriel gave his own answer.
After hearing their answers, Angell and Laplace exchanged a glance, both seeing in each other's eyes, "Just as I thought."
In fact, they already had a general idea before Gray Porcelain and Gabriel answered.
Gray Porcelain would definitely choose the Land of Gold, while Gabriel would choose the angels on earth.
The reason is simple: if it were the Golden Land, Gray Porcelain would most likely not be chosen. This is because each Golden Phantom is a separate entity, and even on the second floor, each person can only hold off one. Given Gray Porcelain's individual strength, even with gold artifacts, he wouldn't be a match for the Golden Phantoms.
In this situation, the best option is to optimize the ash removal process.
And this was also the intention of the gray porcelain.
Therefore, choosing Huangjinxiang as the location for gray porcelain is very reasonable.
As for Gabriel's choice, it's quite normal, because the Earth Angel level has Earth Spores, and the solution to its core skill "Fall to Earth" is to leave the ground, so the flyer has a great advantage.
Gabriel, however, floated the entire way, completely avoiding falling to the ground.
In this situation, it is perfectly normal for Gabriel to choose the Earth Angel level.
Both Gray Porcelain and Gabriel are choices based on self-interest, which is understandable. However, for the Rabbit Hole team, the choice of level doesn't necessarily have to be the most self-serving; the optimal solution is the one that is most suitable and allows for the fastest possible completion.
After Gray Porcelain and Gabriel finished explaining their choices, the Rabbit Girl also shared her thoughts.
She personally prefers level-based games, especially pure combat games. Although she completed the Nereid level, she didn't feel satisfied with the combat.
Therefore, she prefers places where she can fight to her heart's content, such as... Golden City.
As for Laplace, she didn't make a choice, since she's currently unable to participate in the level's challenges.
Finally, everyone's eyes turned to Angel.
They knew very well that Angell's answer was the one that had the final say.
However, Angel did not make a choice immediately, but instead turned his attention to Montedan.
"Even though you won't be able to participate in the level challenge afterward, after hearing their choices, do you have anything to say? Or, which one do you think is better?"
Montessard is an observer, and in Ingres' view, perhaps some new ideas can be gained from the observer's perspective.
Montedan thought for a moment and then asked, "Are the only two levels to choose from: Golden Land and Earthly Angels? What about the other levels?"
Angell: "Of the remaining three levels, one is related to ghosts, but there is very little information about it, and the ghosts are not easy to deal with. So I personally think that we can postpone this level for now."
Gray Porcelain immediately raised his hand: "I second that! I second that!"
He's terrified of ghosts! Extremely terrified! He'd rather die than go near a ghost.
Angel glanced at Gray Porcelain, then continued, "Another level is available; the information currently available suggests it's a relatively pure combat level."
The rabbit girl's eyes lit up, but as Angell continued his story, her gaze dimmed again.
Angell: "However, as far as I know, this map is extremely wide, with combat objectives scattered everywhere, and each combat objective represents progress points. In other words, it may take a long time to get the maximum score."
This is an option, but the long processing time is a major drawback.
Moreover, this is just the general information disclosed by other teams; the perfect mode is estimated to take even longer.
In the current situation where it's crucial to secure points early on, I personally think that these long-running levels can be ruled out first.
Gray Porcelain: "I second that!"
The rabbit girl nodded, "Although I want to fight, I'll skip this kind of time-consuming one. Let's clear the other shorter ones first, and then see what happens."
Angel nodded: "The last one is a puzzle-type level, with ancient books as mazes and works of art as battlegrounds. It requires sufficient artistic cultivation and knowledge... Personally, I don't think I'm very suitable for this one."
"Of course, if you want to choose this, I'm happy to oblige."
Upon hearing about this challenge, Gray Porcelain's eyes widened with interest: "This one seems pretty good?"
Angel raised an eyebrow: "You're interested in this?"
Gray Porcelain truthfully replied, "Golden Township is still the first choice, but as a second choice, I think this could be it."
Angel nodded noncommittally: "However, as far as I know, although this level is more of a puzzle-solving challenge, the frequency of battles is quite high. Encountering an artwork will trigger a battle, and the player drawn into the battle is random."
Before Angell could finish speaking, Gray Porcelain immediately said, "I take back what I just said. Since Mr. Angell says this is not suitable, then I second that! I second that!"
If someone is randomly pulled into a battle, doesn't that mean he might end up in a one-on-one situation with someone else?
The mere thought of this possibility sent a chill down Huici's spine, spreading like frost across his entire back.
Absolutely not!
Angel gave Gray Porcelain a deep look: "I think this level is quite suitable for you. Danger sensing is especially useful in maze-like levels like this."
The gray porcelain shook its head violently, like a rattle-drum, its resistance evident.
Angor didn't continue teasing Gray Porcelain, but turned to look at Montedan: "That's the general situation. Other levels can also be challenged, but in terms of the completeness of information, the level information brought by Iveda is the most complete."
Montedan nodded knowingly: "I understand... If we're simply choosing between the two levels, the Earthly Angels and the Golden Land, I would personally recommend the Golden Land."
"Oh?" Angell: "Tell me your reasons."
Montedan: "As Mr. Gabriel said, the Golden Country is more complicated than Nereid. But in my opinion, complexity is not a bad thing."
"In my fragmented memories, the war in Abyss Stronghold City was happening almost every moment. Among these battles, large and small, the more complex the battle layout, the simpler the core was."
"Because in the abyss, only the weakest side will go to great lengths to choose complex tactics. Therefore, when a battle is always about feints or complicated maneuvers, the warriors of the stronghold city are not afraid. As long as they hold their ground, there will be no major problems."
"On the contrary, those direct and undisguised frontal battles are more troublesome for us. Because the more straightforward they are, the more confident they are."
"Of course, I can't say that's the case in all situations, but at least in the battles at Abyss Stronghold City, this is the norm."
Similarly, in Montedan's view, the rules of the Golden Land are very complex. It requires following both mechanisms and rules, and even provides a large number of various kinds of war-prepared gold artifacts to compete with the Golden Illusion.
It integrates mechanisms, rules, game theory, strategy, and combat into one, and the Gold Market on the first floor even allows other teams to communicate together... In the context of a stronghold city battle, this is the most typical manifestation of a weak core.
"So personally, I think we could consider Golden Township."
"Based on my past experience, this kind of complex mechanism can actually be solved by finding the opponent's weakest point and then crushing it with your own strengths."
To put it simply... no matter how complicated it is, force will overcome all obstacles.
Montessane's interpretation of the Golden City plunged everyone into deep thought.
Although you can't directly use the experience gained from stronghold cities in dungeons, the underlying principles are sometimes the same.
Complexity does not necessarily mean weakness, but complexity most likely indicates that its shortcomings are very small and need to be compensated for by complex mechanisms.
“Now that you mention it, Golden Country does seem worth a try,” Laplace murmured.
Even Gabriel was persuaded by Montessori's story, even though Montessori's claims lacked direct evidence.
Laplace looked at Angell: "What do you think?"
Angel pondered for a moment and said, "Regarding the Golden City, I actually know some information that Srita didn't mention."
Everyone immediately perked up their ears.
“There was a small team whose leader didn’t choose any gold items at the Gold Market, but went straight to the second floor.”
"In the end, they lost one person and chose to return to the first floor."
"This time, the captain didn't fight empty-handed; instead, he chose a golden earring that allowed him to temporarily become ethereal. But when they faced the golden phantom on the second floor again, the captain discovered that the phantom he was facing had become stronger..."
Laplace: "You mean, if you choose gold, the Golden Illusion will also be enhanced?"
Angel nodded: "That's right."
Gabriel: "So, if we choose the Land of Gold, the optimal solution is actually not to choose the gold artifacts?"
Angel shook his head: "It's hard to say. We don't know how much the enhanced Golden Phantom will increase in power. If the increase isn't as great as the boost from the gold artifact, then the gold artifact is still the better option."
"Moreover, the squad leader himself admitted that after obtaining the gold artifact, he was able to withstand the golden phantom for even longer."
Therefore, it's really hard to say whether or not this gold item needs to be chosen.
This information prompted everyone to reflect.
At this moment, Montedan suddenly spoke up: "This is actually a strategy that ordinary challengers need to consider."
"Personally, I believe that gold jewelry is a way to defeat the illusion of gold. Gold jewelry allows challengers to overcome stronger opponents with weaker ones."
"But this only applies to ordinary challengers."
In his view, the Rabbit Hole team were no ordinary challengers; they might be able to defeat the Golden Phantom even without the gold artifacts.
Moreover, the side effects of gold artifacts are too great and can affect subsequent performance. In this case, gold artifacts have become a burden for their team.
Laplace: "I agree with Montessori's point of view."
Both Golden Punishment and Golden Suppression, regardless of which negative status effect they are, have a significant impact on combat.
Since gold artifacts enhance the Golden Illusion, and gold artifacts are not a necessary option, then gold artifacts can be completely abandoned.
Rabbit Girl, Gray Porcelain, Gabriel: "Agreed."
Seeing everyone offering their opinions, Angel said quietly, "It seems like you've all already decided to choose the Golden Land... Actually, the angels on earth aren't bad either."
The rabbit girl sighed, "There's nothing we can do. The information the angels on earth gave us was too little; besides the terrestrial fungus filaments, there were no other clues..."
In this situation, apart from the third level, most of the mechanisms of the first two levels of Golden Land have already come to light.
Therefore, in the eyes of many, the Golden Land was more suitable than the angels on earth.
In truth, Angel himself was also inclined towards the Golden Land. The reason he mentioned the angels on earth was merely to see if the others would have other ideas.
Since everyone was now leaning towards the Golden Land, Angell naturally no longer objected.
"Then let's choose Golden Township next!"
After a pause, Angell continued, "Golden Land doesn't limit the number of people, so how many of us do you think should go in?"
As soon as Angel finished speaking, Gray Porcelain immediately raised his hand: "I, I'm not going. I definitely won't be able to face the Golden Phantom if I go in. Taking me along would be a complete burden!"
Gabriel said, "I can go, I want to see how many points the Golden Tower is worth."
Angell shook his head: "My question was about how many people should go, not who should be chosen."
In Angell's view, the unlimited number of people allowed in Golden Country is very likely a trap.
The more people there are, the more golden phantoms there will be.
Furthermore, the Golden Phantom won't become weak just because the person who enters is weak.
Therefore, the number of people entering is most likely part of the game strategy.
