I Live on the Land in Global Games

Chapter 400 - 400 390 Test Level400: Chapter 390: Test Level 400: Chapter 390: Test Level With Little Stone’s current nutritional reserves, they could only construct five test houses and one test monument.

The test monument was not much of a concern; regardless of how many test houses were built, the results were all connected to the test monument.

Just building one was sufficient.

Although there were only five test houses, in the future the Crystal Underground would definitely develop an area surrounding the unique test houses specifically for testing player combat ability statistics.

Eventually, there would certainly be more than just these five test houses, and space needed to be left for future test houses.

Although the buildings in the Underground City could be taken back and rebuilt, once the scale increased, it wouldn’t work to just expel the players inside every time, then replan and construct, making them reacquaint themselves with a completely new place when they return!

This wasn’t conducive to fostering a connection to the place among players, as people generally form stronger attachments to familiar locations.

So, it had to be designed properly right away.

There was no need for anything fancy anymore.

They directly planned a large square-shaped underground square, and this square used up 45 of the 55 able-to-be-built stone brick houses inside Little Stone’s belly.

Although the count was tallied by stone brick houses, this only represented the total amount of stone bricks that could be produced; the size and scale of the houses could be individually designed, not necessarily being tiny stone huts one by one.

What ended up being built was a huge square stone house square, several times larger than the Sky Square above ground, and the square’s height was also left very generous to accommodate the size required by the test monument after bearing enough information.

Mu Ying could even ride around on a broom for a few laps without any problems.

Mu Ying named this square Adventurer Square.

After that, Mu Ying used the remaining stone brick houses to construct a spacious passage that could accommodate two carriages side by side, extending all the way to the surface, directly substituting the small pathway on the Mushroom Man’s side.

At the junction, there were crystal patterned fonts on the ground serving as road signs, reading: “Adventurer Square,” with an arrow above the words.

The test monument was situated right opposite the entrance to the passage, placed right in the center of Adventurer Square.

The monument had the capacity to display many types of rankings, including overall and tiered rankings related to Comprehensive Combat Power Evaluation, as well as lists regarding attack power, defense ability, healing, and other combat abilities.

Almost all data that could be measured by the test houses could generate rankings with corresponding data, which would then be displayed on the test monument.

Mu Ying considered privacy issues and omitted all additional data, leaving only the tiered and overall rankings for Comprehensive Combat Power, and the display would only show names and professions when the time came, without revealing specific test values.

However, the tester themselves, upon the conclusion of the test, would see data rankings for each category displayed, and this information would be updated synchronously onto their linked Identity Card.

They could choose to show it to others if they wanted, or simply keep it private.

Now, it was no longer necessary to rank by profession in the test rooms.

Because Comprehensive Combat Power encompassed many aspects, including attack power, defense, attack speed, and even healing amount, all abilities used in combat were included in this evaluation regardless of profession.

Even a Priest, with their healing amount, could have a high Comprehensive Combat Power.

The five test houses were aligned in a row, placed by Mu Ying at the end of the square opposite the test monument, against the stone wall.

They occupied less than half the length of this wall.

In the future, more test houses could be built directly next to them; if this wall became fully occupied, a corridor could be created in the middle to continue extending inward.

Mu Ying had no further plans for the remaining three stone walls of the square for the time being.

If other functional areas needed to be planned for the Underground City later, they could expand outward from these three stone walls.

Mu Ying had not yet planned to organize different functional areas on different floors like in Guland Underground City.

She intended to spread out on just one level, expanding outward as Qingshan Town was developed.

Because of the presence of Qingshan Town, she didn’t need to plan residential areas in the Crystal Underground; this place would be thoroughly an adventurer’s playground.

Even though right now there was only one activity here: combat power testing.

But soon, there would be other activities as well.

Little Stone, at the age of three, was already eligible to inherit Guland Underground City, and by then at least one adventure maze from Guland Underground could be replicated.

These plans required time, however, and the immediate tasks had to be completed first.

After the new Adventurer Square and the adjacent test houses were constructed, Mu Ying became the first tester.

She first went behind the test monument to pick up an Identity Card.

Upon attaching her Resident Identity Card to the back of the test monument, the back of the card was laminated with a thin layer of crystal-bordered stone.

This thin stone layer was the test house Identity Card.

The retrieval method was specially set up by Mu Ying; it had to be accessed with a Resident Identity Card attached to it.

This allowed the direct reading of the tester’s name and profession, and also bound the player’s identity.

Just touching the thin stone with a drop of her own blood would activate it.

Thus, a card with multiple functionalities was created.

Mu Ying, holding her Identity Card, walked to the door of Test House No.

1.

There was a card slot on the door of each test house, with a coin slot next to it.

Here, payments could be made directly from the funds stored on the card, using Contribution Points, or by inserting coins.

Since there were a limited number of test houses, which were of quite a good standard, this time the service was not free.

Yet, with fewer people, the emotional impact wouldn’t be affected because the real “emotional harvester” was the stone monument out on the square.

The doors of the test houses would only open after paying.

Once inside, the interior space was divided into different testing stages, with only the area near the entrance serving as a ceasefire zone.

Each testing stage had different supporting facilities.

The first stage was the singular attack powers test stage, where both physical attacks and magic attacks could be tested.

This area contained only one stone statue.

By utilizing your attack abilities on this stone statue, your attack power level could be measured.

The second stage was the singular defense powers test stage, featuring two special thick stone walls.

Standing between the walls and using your defense abilities, the walls would either compress or attack you, thus testing single defense abilities.

The third stage was the support abilities test stage, also featuring a stone statue.

By applying your support abilities, such as healing or amplification ability, to it, your support abilities could be measured.

The fourth stage was the speed test stage, which included a movable floor that, to Mu Ying, was very similar to a treadmill from before the apocalypse.

This could test maximum speed, average speed, and endurance, while another facility alongside could measure spell casting speed, skill usage speed, and reflexes.
