Chapter 9 Program Naming: Greed

[Collection]: A general function that can quickly decompose biological corpses and extract the essence of substances.

Looking at the function bar in the visual attribute panel, Lu Ming said silently: "Ultimate sublimation."

[Hint: Please select the sublimation grade, second order/first order]

Looking at the prompt, Lu Ming himself felt speechless. Sublimating anything, it really can include anything, not even a general function. Is this a BUG? Will it be dealt with if it is used too recklessly?

A little scared, but there is no intention to restrain.

If you have a magical skill and don't use it, you are a fool. Let's have fun first.

"First order."

It stands to reason that it should be sublimated directly to the second order. Anyway, there is no specialized crystal and you can only rely on privileges.

He is just curious and wants to see what the effect of first-order sublimation is.

[Hint: Sublimating the general function "Collection" requires 2 million "specialized crystals". You have an unconditional consumption privilege. Are you sure to consume the privilege once to upgrade the general function "Collection" to the special function "Perfect Collection"? ]

2 million specialized crystals? !

Lu Ming was stunned.

This is only the first stage of sublimation, and the cost has exceeded the value of the ultimate sublimation. What if it is the second stage? I can't even imagine it!

Is it even more amazing than the ultimate sublimation? !

Check out the perfect collection.

[Perfect Collection]: A special function that can quickly decompose the corpse of a creature and extract the essence of all the substances produced by the creature. The range of action is 5 meters.

It must extract the essence of all the substances produced by the creature?

What does it mean? As long as the substances produced by the sickle owl larvae will be 100% produced regardless of the probability?

Damn, if this is true, perfect collection is the existence that changes the drop rules, and it is priceless!

And the first stage effect can be so amazing, what about the second stage?

The thought flashed through his mind, and Lu Ming felt dry mouth.

Swallowing his saliva unconsciously, Lu Ming reached out to the button to cancel the first stage of sublimation, and then started the ultimate sublimation again.

[Prompt, please select the sublimation grade...]

"Second grade."

[Prompt: Sublimating the general function "Collect" requires 8 million "specialized crystals". You have a one-time non-consumption privilege. Are you sure you want to consume the privilege once to upgrade the general function "Collect" to a higher level? ]

[Confirm (consume 8 million specialized crystals)]

[Confirm (consume one non-consumption privilege)]

[Cancel]

"..."

8 million specialized crystals?

According to the ratio of 1 specialized crystal = 100 specialized crystal blocks = 10,000 specialized crystals, 8 million specialized crystals are already an astronomical figure!

Is this function really that scary after sublimation?

Wait, a higher level, instead of directly telling you what skill to sublimate, is consistent with the ultimate sublimation, the prompt of the Eye of Truth.

It seems to be another grade that touches the unknown field. Lu Ming curled his lips, "Confirm to consume the privilege once."

[Prompt: The general function "Collect" has been successfully sublimated to a higher level. Since this level appears for the first time and is an evolution of the general function of the program, it will be directly named by this program. 】

[Program naming...]

[Naming completed, function name: "Greed"]

[Hint: Function "Greed" sublimation is complete, the function has been forcibly converted into an exclusive function, exclusive owner: Lu Ming]

"This..."

Lu Ming was dazzled by the list of prompts.

The most obvious difference is that the namer has changed from himself to the program itself.

Greed?

Looking at the function word that has completely turned into a highlight bold font, Lu Ming always feels that something is wrong. This color doesn't look like something used by decent people, it's a bit weird.

Click to view.

[Greed] (???)

Category: Exclusive function

Effect: It can quickly decompose biological corpses and extract twice the essence of all materials produced by biological organisms. The method of use can be silently recited.

Action range: 10 meters (will increase with the target's specialization level)

Function characteristics: [Hand of Greed]

Function characteristics: The grade exceeds the limit, cannot be detected by any external force, and disappears after death.

Target: [Lu Ming]

...

The function information display mode changes to skill status.

The effect description only adds a doubling of the output compared to perfect collection.

To be honest, this little effect improvement is not worthy of the magnitude of 8 million specialized crystals, unless it has hidden attributes, or the characteristic called the Hand of Greed has an extremely exaggerated effect.

Touch the Hand of Greed.

[Hand of Greed]: Hungry and unscrupulous, it takes everything in the world, and can extract the corpses of other creatures. When extracting, it is necessary to complete the extraction operation first, and the method can be selected when extracting.

Compassion: Single extraction, take the essence of the material first, but do not affect others' extraction.

Cruelty: Double extraction, directly empty all the essence of the material, and no material will be produced when others extract.

"..."

Staring at the Hand of Greed, Lu Ming couldn't help but shout "Fuck".

What an outrageous function this is, is it okay to directly steal the spoils of others?

What if others spent countless manpower and resources to kill a king-level alien creature, and he stood aside and turned on the cruel mode, wouldn't it make a group of people work for him in vain without knowing it? This special effect would make capitalists cry.

"It's worth it!"

Turning off the greedy information panel, Lu Ming almost grinned from ear to ear.

To be fair, a decent and kind young man like him should not use such an unethical function.

But it smells so good.

Finally, weighing the moral degradation and fame and reputation, Lu Ming decided to sacrifice a little bit of his image and only use a little bit when necessary, really, really only use a little bit of "billion".

"Hehe, cough cough cough."

I couldn't help laughing twice, but immediately realized that I was not polite, so I covered up my cunning with a dry cough and calmed down again.

Now the problem of crystal output has been completely improved, and the resources for upgrading the knife are already available. It can be said that everything is ready, and there is no need to worry about it. I just need to kill the sickle owl larva without leaving a single piece of armor.

Picking up the machete again, looking at the dried mucus on the blade, Lu Ming said in a deep voice, "Ultimate sublimation."

[Tip: Please select the sublimation grade. ]

"First level."

[Tip: Sublimation tool [420A stainless steel machete] requires 2 specialized crystals. ]

[Confirm]

[Cancel]

Very smart, after three privileges are used up, the prompts have become simpler.

"Confirm."

[Tip: Please select the sublimation direction, "straight knife", "large knife", "samurai sword". ]

"Straight knife."

Whoosh!

The machete in his hand decomposed into particles, and then condensed again after rotating and gathering.

In just one second, a straight knife with a sharp silver blade and a brown-yellow handle appeared in his hand.

Holding the handle, he felt the brand-new texture of the blade.

His heart was slightly moved with a little excitement.

[Tip: The tool [420A stainless steel machete] was successfully sublimated into the ordinary weapon "traditional straight knife". ]
