CHAPTER 464: CHAPTER 163: OVERCLOCKED DIVINE POWER, RATIONAL SOLUTIONS

Call out the function panel and choose to log off.

A 30-second countdown to log off appeared in his mind, and his vision was gradually swallowed by darkness.

Returning to reality, a strong sense of weakness struck, and the muddled smell in the air made Qin Ye feel a strong aversion.

"This feels terrible. If my strength keeps increasing, I might not even be able to log off."

He complained a bit, got up, changed a set of clothes, and sat down at the computer desk.

Wake up the screen and open a document.

Typed in the words "Spirit Plant".

Qin Ye:...

His hand hovered over the virtual projection keyboard, as if time had stopped.

He tried hard to recall the Spirit Plant Study knowledge that was clearly imprinted in his mind just moments ago, but the information in his memory was rapidly disappearing at an unstoppable pace.

The names of the Spirit Plants, their growth environment, growth cycles... The memories that were firmly engraved in his mind were being erased bit by bit, like being wiped by an eraser.

It was as if a huge void appeared in his mind. The harder he tried to grasp it, the faster the memories escaped.

The knowledge he used to know fluently was reduced to scattered fragments, like leaves falling and scattering in the wind, never to be pieced together again.

A strong sense of helplessness surged in Qin Ye’s heart:

"No way, Brother Emperor Zhao, this isn’t how you play the game."

He suddenly realized something.

In the game, memory could still be retained after turning off the Brain Overclocking because the Life Soul from Brain Overclocking was still in the Star Vein Slot, or the attribute enhancement of the player’s body was still there, sufficient to carry vast amounts of memory information.

But after logging out of the game, attributes were stripped away, and the Life Soul was stripped away.

As an ordinary person, he simply couldn’t retrieve the vast amount of short-term memory information in his memories.

The rapid memory content in the game now was like footprints on the sand, washed away by the waves without a trace.

At this moment, Qin Ye wanted to cry but had no tears, and couldn’t help but sigh:

"If only the attributes and abilities in the game could be brought back to reality."

...

Primordial Altar.

Qi Sheng sat cross-legged on the altar, lost in thought.

After half a day of contemplation, he came up with an idea.

Every player was his wealth generator of sacrificial power. After death, there were many ways to handle it.

The first way is, resurrection.

By consuming a large amount of sacrificial power, players can be resurrected in reality and continue to operate in Monster World as players, generating sacrificial power revenue for him.

As for how to explain resurrection after death.

He didn’t need to explain it to anyone, and the outside world would only think of it as a medical miracle.

Just like when he treated the mother of "Dark Night Will Come".

The problem with this way was not explaining it but the consumption of sacrificial power.

According to Guidance feedback, resurrection roughly requires consuming ten thousand points of sacrificial power, but as players operate in Monster World, this expenditure could definitely be recovered.

The second way is, death decomposition and recovery.

Decompose and recover all of a deceased player’s Star Vein, Life Soul, body, pets, Space Bag, Guiding Avatar, etc., converting them into sacrificial power to enter the Sacrificial Pool.

This method is also feasible.

After recovering all sacrificial power, it can be used elsewhere and can also be converted into the growth of the Player Corps.

But this method has a flaw.

Although the essence of sacrificial power recovery is not wasted, the player’s growth in combat awareness, combat skills, and other experiences are undoubtedly wasted.

This deceased veteran player only had a few months of combat experience, seemingly without impact.

But looking to the future, if those with ten years, a hundred years... of combat experience die and still choose decomposition and recovery, it would be a huge loss.

Many strong players have grown through accumulated battle experiences, and they are of great significance to the Player Corps.

For example, the Divine King of the Divine Hall Guild.

From initially commanding hundreds of players, to commanding thousands of players, and recently starting to command tens of thousands of players in external wars.

In addition, the Divine King also spends a lot of time reviewing forum strategies.

Understanding the effects, strengths, and implications of various new features in wars of different Star Vein Combinations.

Every wartime command and every learning experience brings him growth, and this valuable experience would vanish once the player’s body is completely decomposed.

On the surface, decomposing a player seems to yield sacrificial power, allowing more players to be recruited.

But on second thought, this option is unwise.

The third handling option is to ignore reality, resurrect the player’s consciousness within the game, and achieve Eternal Life as a player.

Doing so indeed retains everything about the player.

The method of player resurrection can be explained as the implantation of AI intelligence, limiting the resurrected player from revealing the secret of resurrection, continuing to accompany family and even game friends as a player.

But this model has a series of problems.

This is not an optional implantation; once the Challenger System’s settings are completed, the subsequent process will be automated.

The player dies, consciousness is implanted in the player’s body, and completely cuts off from reality.

But whether the player themselves are willing is a potential issue, perhaps reality death is the player’s own choice.

Secondly, whether a player’s relatives agree is also a problem.

Implanting intelligent AI, explaining that it retains the player’s pre-mortem memory information, might delight the player’s family and friends, but they might also resent it.

After all, in the eyes of the players, this is essentially not human, just an AI with memory.

A similar situation can be referenced from the Soul Returning Clan.

This is one of the most resented cheating forces among players, the reason being the perfect memory possession, even capable of conversing with friends using the victim’s pre-mortem tone.
