Chapter 516 516: I've Got a Bunch of Great Ideas
"Magic Net features? That's easy. I've got a whole bunch of great ideas."
The God of Hunting gathered his holy spirits together. "For the next while, your job is to learn how to develop Magic Net features!"
"First, we're gonna develop an encyclopedia. We'll input info on every beast that can be found on the continent—each beast's habits, attack methods, combat power, weaknesses, habitats, active times, everything laid out clearly."
"On top of that, let everyone filter by location and time to identify prey. When they use these features, they'll need to pray."
"But here's the thing—if it's an emergency situation, we won't require a prayer. We'll mainly rely on regular use..."
Listening to their god explain, every holy spirit's face lit up with delight.
The Magic Net's sudden changes had left them feeling a bit panicked.
After all, every change brought shifts in the power structure.
Recently, the faith they'd been earning through their old methods wasn't as abundant anymore.
They were terrified that one day they'd fall behind.
But now, their god had already found a new goal.
Just hearing about it made them think this feature was fantastic.
Letting everyone search for info on all kinds of beasts—that was definitely something most people could use.
Sure, not everyone goes hunting, but everyone encounters all kinds of animals, right?
Occasionally running into an insect you've never seen, spotting a pretty bird, coming across a snake or something—isn't that pretty common?
When that happens, aren't you curious? Or scared?
And if you're curious or scared, don't you want to know what it is?
What if it's dangerous?
Pretty much everyone runs into situations like that.
Once people know about this feature, they'll definitely use it.
"We can add another function too. Just have someone point their Magic Net at the animal and take a picture, and our feature will pull up the detailed info."
After the God of Hunting finished sharing his idea, one holy spirit added, "A lot of times, people have already seen the beast but can't identify it. I think that's when they'd want to know the most."
Hearing that, the God of Hunting nodded. "Good point. We can add that feature too. Make sure you write that down."
"Besides that, we can also develop a map that includes all the caves and forests on the continent. I bet a lot of people will need that too."
"Then this feature can interact with the first one, though it needs to be a separate feature."
The holy spirits looked confused. If they combined these two features, wouldn't that be more appealing?
The God of Hunting seemed to catch their confusion and smiled. "If we put them together, they'd only pray once. Keep them separate, and they'll pray twice for the same thing."
"Plus, different needs will lead people to different features, and then the two features can transfer users to each other."
"For example, if someone needs a map, they search for 'map' in the Feature Store and find ours. Then when they see beasts on the map and get curious, they can open our other feature."
"Similarly, someone curious about an animal will want to know the exact location after checking some info, so naturally they'll open our map."
"But if we merge these two features, what do we call it? And later when there are more features, how will people find ours?"
The holy spirits all had expressions of sudden understanding.
Oh! Of course!
They'd been thinking too simply. They just thought grouping these features together might make them more competitive, but they hadn't considered all these other possibilities.
After hearing the explanation, they all looked like they finally got it.
With no more doubts, the God of Hunting continued. "Besides those two features, there's actually another one I'm more excited about."
"It's kind of like the current Quest Board, but this feature is only for hunting or exploring places like forests and caves."
"Think of it as an exclusive feature for the Hunting Guild. Clients can place orders themselves, upload info, post bounties, and hunters can communicate with each other."
"Then this feature can interact with the other two. Bottom line, this feature is super important for our church."
"Even if it brings in less outside faith compared to the other two, you still need to take it seriously."
Many of the holy spirits present had been members of the church or guild when they were alive. They instantly understood the significance.
Several nodded right away. This feature had to be done carefully and presented perfectly.
The God of Hunting nodded in satisfaction.
"Besides that, I've got some other ideas that aren't fully formed yet. Like, Hunting Simulation."
"What's Hunting Simulation? It's using the Magic Net to build a feature."
"This feature can display different scenarios on the Magic Net in a video-like format—forests, caves, swamps, wilderness... Different animals appear in different environments."
"But here's where it differs from videos—all users can control a little character in the Magic Net. This character can use all kinds of tools to hunt all kinds of animals in all kinds of scenarios."
"We can input real-world info into this. I'm sure you all realize that not everyone has the guts to go hunting in the wild."
"Hunting is written into every living thing's instincts."
"People who don't have the guts to hunt can experience it through this feature."
"People who do have the guts can't reach every location, so they can use this to learn about hunting conditions elsewhere, or hunt things beyond their current abilities."
"Experienced hunters can try out new ideas they've imagined, test themselves against animals they're not super familiar with..."
"Bottom line, I think most people will love this feature."
"If we can pull this off, I think this is the real game-changer for attracting outside faith. So you need to put your hearts into it too."
"And if we can successfully develop this feature, we can build a whole series of similar features around it..."
After the God of Hunting shared his final idea, all the holy spirits stood there stunned. Every face was filled with disbelief.
They never imagined it could be used like that.
But thinking about it carefully, it actually seemed doable.
