Chapter 760: Less Than Fifty Million Copper Coins? Since When Was I This Poor?

Four great Sequences.

—The Scarlet Shepherd, perfectly suited to be wielded. In truth, it was the ideal time to advance with valor and vigor.

—The new Sequence fused from the Annalist of Years and the Vajra Guardian, absolutely not easy to deal with.

—The Lucky One and the Judgment Executor had yet to decide whether they would fuse.

—As for the Seven Killings Monarch Sequence, the day he reached its summit would be the moment the demigod cast his net.

Every single matter was a vexing headache. The more Xu Lang thought about it, the more irritated he became, and a trace of restlessness seeped through his brow.

Just then, the Divine Seal of the Path of Asura suddenly turned scorching hot, and hot blood surged straight into his chest!

His eyes snapped open, and two strands of red radiance, nearly condensing into blood mist, drifted out. Xu Lang's palm came to rest upon the blade of Purgatory's Master.

When his mind was unsettled, the Divine Seal of the Path of Asura provided the answer!

Kill!

A single swing of the blade could sever ten thousand sorrows!

The Path of Asura plunged people into endless warfare, while Mad King Building plunged people into disorderly madness. To some extent, the two were actually compatible, both being higher mysteries that caused people to sink into depravity.

"I'm going to Training Room One to train. Notify me when Mary returns." Xu Lang rose and headed straight for the training room.

Zhichun watched Xu Lang depart, her brows and eyes relaxing.

Although Xu Lang had left radiating killing intent, he inexplicably gave off a sense of lightness. When a person was preoccupied with a single matter, their mind was at its most relaxed.

...

[Blade Technique has gained insight. War God has advanced to Level 26.]

[Blade Technique has gained insight. War God has advanced to Level 27.]

[Blade Technique has gained insight. War God has advanced to Level 28.]

[Blade Technique has gained insight. War God has advanced to Level 29.]

[Blade Technique has gained insight. War God has advanced to Level 30. Exclusive Skill "Madness: Blood Dance" has been unlocked.]

Inside the training room, Xu Lang wore only the most ordinary practice trousers, his bare upper body almost a work of art. His long blade rested between his knees as Seven Killings Blood Qi mingled with blade intent, burning and surging, condensing into a blood-colored aura of flame.

Mad killing intent and battle intent surged against each other, given free rein, like charcoal burning past its limit, about to self-immolate.

After taking up the Seven Killings Monarch post, Xu Lang's killing intent had risen by several tiers. His aura alone could suppress an entire building's worth of players.

And killing intent, it was incomparably compatible with the Divine Seal of the Path of Asura!

The Divine Seal of the Path of Asura grew incredibly scorching, as if about to burn through Xu Lang's flesh. Various visions churned forth in turn.

The black magic box grinned ferociously in the shadows; the Dragon Blood Rakshasa roared furiously within the blood clouds; the Seven Killings General Star hid within the clouds, resonating with the Dragon Blood Rakshasa; upon the Blood-Colored Highland, the Blood River surged and flowed ceaselessly.

Suddenly, Xu Lang gripped the hilt of Purgatory's Master.

The scarlet long blade slid from the Wraith Scabbard, wreathed in a shroud of Ghost Qi, then extended infinitely, reaching the far end of the training room in what seemed like an instant, and it was incredibly pliable!

Xu Lang rotated his wrist, and the war blade, like a long whip, curled and unfurled, whipping up layer after layer of blood-colored blade qi as it danced.

This blood-colored blade qi was likewise incredibly pliable, like one blood-colored ribbon after another adorning an immortal's body.

After a good while, Blood Dance ceased.

Xu Lang sheathed his blade and rose, casually pulling on a handsome leather jacket.

Madness: Blood Dance combined the essences of madness and pliability into one. When unleashed, it carried the exhilarating thrill of flaunting one's skill.

With all his killing intent released, his mood finally settled.

And the problem had its answer.

—Lying flat!

The road to heaven was laid right before his eyes!

With every level-up, the Nightmare Bed's effects would be enhanced across the board.

Once the Nightmare Bed rose to Level 8, its Sequence suppression effect would grow stronger, and along the way, it could even resolve the problem of Sequence Fusion taking too long.

The final answer to all problems was sleep.

In dreams, everything would be there.

Xu Lang was just about to step out of the training room when a notification popped up.

[Training room undergoing automatic repairs. Estimated cost: 83,900 Copper Coins.]

[Current remaining Copper Coins: 47,480,800.]

"Less than fifty million Copper Coins? Since when was I this poor?"

Xu Lang was inwardly startled.

He really had been spending money rather fiercely lately, without any restraint. Later on, he still needed to build the spire and the Mad Vanguard Barracks, and he had no idea if the money would be enough.

Mad King Building's assets were almost entirely concentrated in Demon King Castle. Even if he went to raise funds from other players, he wouldn't be able to gather much.

Making money was nothing more than increasing income and reducing expenses.

Reducing expenses would slow down development, and increasing income... Xu Lang once again thought of the war missions issued by Mad King Building.

If he could plunder a wave from other dormitory buildings, he would definitely be able to get rich in one go.

In the later stages of the Building Wars, he hadn't really bothered collecting items from other buildings.

Firstly, he hadn't been in the mood. Secondly, the other buildings were also somewhat poor. The Amusement Park Building and others, in preparation for the True King Duel, had nearly emptied out their family coffers.

"At worst, I'll use Lucky Star Piggy as an emergency measure at the end. For now, I'll go see how the Neighborhood Committee's work is coming along, and whether Mad King Building needs major revisions."

...

Mad King Building Chief Designer: Xu Lang.

Deputy Designers: Mary, Kui Zi, Sherry, Wang Yazhi.

Number One Design Team: Mad Neighborhood Committee Planner Team.

Mary had already returned to Demon King Castle and brought back complete data.

After calculation, Mad King Building's overall facility layout did indeed have many highly unreasonable points.

Kui Zi and the others were urgently adjusting the plan.

The most troublesome part was floors 1 through 10. These floors had yet to house any players, and the dormitory baseline was unknown, presenting enormous variables.

Everyone could only rely on inference to estimate how many production-type, combat-type, and defense-type dormitories would appear on floors 1 through 10.

And this plan had to be produced quickly.

Mad King Building players had been locked in for long enough. If they didn't go out soon, it would drag down the entire Mad King Building's development speed.

The focus of everyone's attention was Kui Zi, along with Mary assisting at her side.

Before Kui Zi was an information light screen filled with ceaselessly leaping streams of data.

At this moment, she was like an engineer calculating the orbital speeds of planets, meticulously precise to an outrageous degree.

Firepower Girl and a whole host of combat robots had also been summoned to the hall, because their processing power was needed.

The delicate work still had to be handled by Mary and Kui Zi. At times like this, others could only offer suggestions and grasp the general direction.

Specialization made the difference, and in this matter, Xu Lang was no exception.

"How much longer?" Chi Qingman asked cautiously.

The women of Demon King Castle had already been waiting here for a long time, just wanting a result.

Xu Lang sat to the side drinking tea, similarly feeling a touch anxious inside.

Hearing the inquiry, Kui Zi deflated like a punctured ball, sighed, and said bitterly:

"Open the gates. Let Mad King Building players go out and develop. It'll also conveniently test the correctness of these few models."

"Estimated time is about one day."

"Xu Lang, I'm sorry. The dormitory building's layout can't be made perfect. I can only get it close to perfection."

Xu Lang furrowed his brow. He didn't pressure Kui Zi, but instead comforted her: "Where exactly is the specific problem stuck?"

Kui Zi said with great discomfort: "Every time a game ends, new dormitories move in. This variable can't be calculated."

In a chaotic environment like Mad King Building, there were far too many accidents that broke the established pattern. There was simply no way to consolidate the entire building's resources.

At her current calculation level, as long as materials were sufficient, she could hand-build a rocket. Yet that kind of computational power, applied to Mad King Building's overall construction, still seemed utterly inadequate.

"First, explain these so-called models to me." Xu Lang pointed at the information light screen before Kui Zi.

"Alright." Kui Zi responded.

Ten minutes later, Xu Lang had a thorough understanding.

"No rush. You all wait a while for me. Let me think it over carefully." After Xu Lang said this, he closed his eyes.

Formulating the plan for Mad King Building's facility deployment, this was worth using some Nightmare Essence for.
