11: Chapter 11 Questions Raised by Architecture

Taking off his helmet, Wang Tao raised his hand, then lowered it back onto his watch. Finally, he submerged his consciousness into his Divine Kingdom to check it.

At the dinner table just now, he could feel Chen Xing's disdain and arrogance. He had wanted to retort at the time, but since his superior hadn't spoken, he could only eat in silence.

On the other side, after Lin Xiao took off his virtual helmet, he savored the taste of the food, looking as if he hadn't had enough.

As for the provocation from that guy on the side? Once his faith points were up, there would be plenty of opportunities in the future to let the other party know what it meant to have trouble come from the mouth.

He opened his watch and searched the shopping section.

"Clear Pattern Fruit E-level, 10,000 catties, priced at 1,000 faith points"

"Light Pattern Red Fruit E-level, 10,000 catties, priced at 2,000 faith points"

"Coagulation Grass E-level, 1,000 plants, priced at 1,000 faith points"

Looking at the prices of these resources, Lin Xiao couldn't help but twitch his mouth. Buying them cost tens of thousands of faith points, yet a single harvest sometimes didn't even yield one-tenth of the price.

A harvest took over 20 days, which meant that to break even, it would take more than half a year in the Divine Kingdom.

"No wonder Divine Beings can't get ahead. I even dumped 90,000 faith points into these three resources, and the result was only 4,000 faith points per 20-day harvest."

"To increase the multiplier quickly, I still need to buy buildings like an alchemy room."

Flipping through the prices of C-level resources, Lin Xiao twitched his mouth again.

"Red Cherry Fruit Seeds C-level, quantity 1,000, maturation time 300 years. Price 200,000 faith points"

"Red Cherry Fruit C-level, quantity 1,000 catties, price 20,000 faith points"

"alchemy room C-level, price 300,000"

Although the alchemy room's efficiency was decent, capable of producing 12 bottles of marrow cleansing pill a day (Divine Kingdom time), processing this stuff only earned a service fee.

After deducting the cost of medicinal herbs, the profit margin was actually very thin. The only advantage might be that it could be settled daily, had a short cycle, and showed quick results.

"The planted Spirit Fruit had a settlement, but the free-range spirit beasts weren't settled? The ordinary beasts raised by the Believers weren't settled either."

"Looking at it this way, to get a settlement, it's highly likely I need to raise spirit beasts of a certain rank. The building settlements are also calculated based on the output quantity per order, not the annual total."

"In this case, to quickly stack the multiplier, it's best to buy buildings with long cycles and high unit prices."

"great restoration pill Furnace B-level, input the required herbs and the furnace can automatically refine pills. It can produce 10 bottles of great restoration pill per month. Building price 10,000,000 faith points. Price per bottle 100,000 faith points."

"Description: The great restoration pill contains pure medicinal power, which can help Believers quickly improve and condense their own strength. The lower the realm, the more obvious the effect. It is almost ineffective for Qi Refining stage Believers."

"Are you still worried about your Believers' strength being too low? Are you still exhausted from trying to ascend to Demigod? The great restoration pill solves all your troubles!"

"As long as you pop pills fast, there is no sadness, only love! The great restoration pill Pharmacy is a century-old brand, with quality you can trust! Buy 1,000 bottles at once and get one free. What are you waiting for? Place your order now!"

"Flesh is weak, machines ascend. Are you still worried about the weakness of your Believers? If their bodies are fragile, replace them directly with alloy bodies; if their meridians are blocked or tiny, modify them directly with mechanical energy pipelines. Our slogan is:"

"As long as you modify machines fast, all physical shortcomings are replaced. Broken veins and withered bones can all be modified; all inferior roots are eliminated."

"You can always trust the power of machines! Iron Order Heavy Industry only makes quality goods!"

He just wanted to see what C-level buildings had high output, but he didn't expect an advertisement to pop up. Lin Xiao couldn't help but twitch the corners of his mouth.

As expected of the mechanical system, they are truly overbearing. The cost of this kind of targeted advertising might be equal to the wealth of a Demigod for several years.

After browsing the shopping platform for a while, Lin Xiao discovered something very interesting. The great restoration pill, its effect after consumption is to improve the Believers' cultivation level.

Just like that advertisement slogan, "As long as you pop pills fast, there is no sadness, only love." Then, isn't it enough to just pop great restoration pills to improve cultivation?

What does this "Magic Energy Meditation Potion" mean? And what about this "Savage Blood Brew"?

He read the descriptions of these items several times carefully. Although there were slight differences in the descriptive vocabulary, in terms of specific content, they were almost exactly the same.

Why create so many different types of products with the same effect? Could there be some difference in this? He didn't believe the difference was just about the category or raw materials.

Based on the good tradition that a good student asks if they don't understand, Lin Xiao entered the virtual world classroom and contacted his class teacher, Teacher Tong Qian.

About three minutes later, Teacher Tong Qian's figure appeared in the classroom. With a wave of her hand, she sealed the entire classroom, not allowing anyone else to enter.

This was also her right as a class teacher.

"It hasn't been long since class ended, why did you think of contacting the teacher again? Is there any question about today's lesson that you don't understand?"

Lin Xiao had a polite smile on his face and bowed slightly to Teacher Tong Qian to show respect. Then he stated his confusion.

"Teacher, you have already taught today's lesson very thoroughly, so I don't have any questions in that regard."

"I'm contacting you this time mainly because I encountered some things I didn't understand while browsing the shopping section just now. That's why I wanted to ask for your guidance."

Teacher Tong Qian nodded upon hearing this. If it were any other student, she would have already raised her hand to crush them. Don't understand? If you don't understand, go find the answer online yourself; if you can't find it, keep fumbling until you do.

But since it was Lin Xiao asking, she was still very willing to answer for him. Isn't that how relationships are built, step by step?

"You have only just been promoted to a Divine Being, so it is normal to have many things you don't understand. After all, before this, the school only taught you some of the most basic knowledge."

"Those can only be considered common sense. You will only formally come into contact with the Divine Kingdom and Believers in your third year. So, what is your question now?"

"Well, it's like this. I was browsing the shopping section earlier and found a pill called the great restoration pill."

"Its function is to quickly improve the individual strength of Believers, which I don't quite understand. What is the difference between this pill and things like Spirit Fruit or beast meat?"

"After all, I saw that one bottle costs 100,000 faith points. Even if calculated as one hundred pills, one pill would cost a full 1,000 faith points? Is this price a bit outrageous?"

"In addition, there is another question. I later found several other types of secret potions, secret brews, and such."

"Judging solely from the descriptions of these items, they should belong to items with the same effect. Since the effects are the same, why are there so many different products?"

"Could it be just because of the raw materials or the place of origin?"

After hearing Lin Xiao's words, Teacher Tong Qian showed a look of surprise on her face. She didn't expect that he had already started browsing B-level buildings at this time.

And it was this kind of high-value building for personal workshops. Generally speaking, this kind of building was not something a third-year student should consider.

Even as a deity, she didn't have this type of building in her Divine Kingdom. It wasn't that she couldn't afford it, but that it wasn't necessary.

"Your observation ability is very good. Most students wouldn't have any doubts about this even if they saw it."

"Since you asked, the teacher will treat it as teaching you some advanced course knowledge in advance."
