Chapter 902 Shrinking the front line, an unexpected surprise from Hao Qiang!
Just as Sumo expected.
Not only did the storm caused by this update not weaken as time went by, but it actually became more and more violent.
The day after the announcement was made.
early morning.
The ancient Shuren friends next door hurriedly sent an envoy to discuss closer cooperation between the two parties in the future.
Maybe they also discovered the deeper meaning of the updated version of the game and knew the importance of subsequent development.
But unfortunately, the dwarves frequently harassed the surrounding areas of Tianyuan's territory and even stationed troops near the black market camp.
Faced with all this, the tree people pretended not to see it, hoping to reap the benefits.
Such an approach has destroyed the basis for continued cooperation between the two parties.
Even if he finally wanted to maintain this relationship, in the end, Chen Shenxu and Chen Shenxu had to work hard for a long time to reach an unlikely mutual help agreement.
After being politely sent to the periphery of the territory, Elder Zhu Chuan, who had been a pioneer in diplomacy, let out a long sigh.
After learning more about human society, he knew that the agreement placed in his tree nest was equivalent to waste paper.
But there is nothing I can do, I have to bear the sins I have done now.
Who would have thought that it only took three months for Tianyuan Territory to develop a village to the level of a town.
Among them, there are three or four factories that are emitting black smoke, and I don't know what they are producing.
Coupled with those heavenly soldiers and generals holding sharp weapons, their strength can be regarded as the strongest in the surrounding area. The tree people have lost a reliable and powerful ally without knowing it.
"Let's go, return."
"After this new continent becomes bigger, next time we want to come here, it won't be as easy as it is now."
After taking a deep look behind him, Zhu Chuan turned around and began to enlarge his body again.
He stepped forward and finally led people into the deserted ice and snow, and his figure gradually disappeared into the thick fog.
After sending away these tree people, the Demon Soul Clan Free City next to the territory also needs to be arranged.
It is different from the nearly 300 kilometers of blank buffer zone between it and the tree people's territory.
The distance between Tianyuan Territory and the Demon Soul Clan is not that far, the straight-line distance is just over 180 kilometers.
Zoom in five times, which is 900 kilometers.
All right.
After hearing this troublesome figure, Sumo finally had to admit that the game's plan was successful.
In the early stage, there was integration, communication, and even cooperation between the major territories.
The game only needs to simply zoom in on the terrain to completely destroy it and return everything to zero.
During a natural disaster, what he wanted to see was not that all the major races unite to stay warm and work together to fight the disaster.
As before, independent "screening" is his ultimate goal.
Rounds of disasters are a cruel sieve, and only those rice bugs that are "strong" enough can continue to stay at the top.
"Withdraw it, otherwise the decline in physical fitness will be a big trouble."
Sumo made this decision out of desperation, and the store built by Tianyuan Territory in Liberty City came to an end.
However, in the past few months, Hao Qiang has relied on dog planning to continue his business.
Many naive demon souls have already recharged their free funds into stores.
At this time, the store was on the run, and although it was not possible to exchange all the money in hand for supplies and take it away, it was still exchanged for nearly 60% of various rare items.
Among them, let’s not talk about various condiments that can greatly improve living standards, plant seeds with strange abilities, and tools with properties.
The most surprising thing was the big thing that was transported back with difficulty on a lizard cart.
"Director, this guy cost nearly 40% of our working capital, up to 1.5 million contribution points, which is ridiculously expensive."
On the afternoon of the fourth day, Hao Qiang, who was dusty with travels, arrived at the territory, and he could not conceal his excitement as soon as he opened his mouth.
Behind him, a silver-white square object was being dragged on a cart.
The volume is about 1m*1.5m*2m.
People who saw this thing for the first time were a little confused and thought it was just an ordinary metal cube.
But for those who have seen Soma more than once, this thing shouldn't be too familiar at all.
Amazing modular items!
This thing is simply not something that humans can create at the moment, and its technological content has greatly exceeded every human group that has been teleported to the wasteland in the past.
Only by completing the missions in the game can you occasionally get some good things like this and pass them down.
"At that time, we were trying to think of ways to exchange the working capital in our hands into items and bring them back. Due to the recent tightening of supervision, exchanging ordinary items in large quantities would easily arouse suspicion, so we focused on those who did not
Attention-grabbing relics will appear on the product.”
"From the time this thing was discovered, to excavated, and then transported all the way back to Liberty City, no one discovered its value at all, and it was only on the shelves for two hours before we photographed it!"
Patting the big metal block, Hao Qiang looked proud, as if he had found the feeling of opening an SSR card for the first time in the game.
"Well done, no matter what the purpose of this thing is, the more the better for the territory."
Unexpectedly, he had a big harvest. Sumo showed caring eyes and his tone became gentler.
Talent is really useful and can surprise people no matter what the environment.
Hao Qiang was formerly a planner, and what he is best at is the deployment of personnel, and...
etc.
"Chen Shen, go down and make arrangements to directly upgrade Hao Qiang's talent level by one level. In addition, Yuan Sheng Qiao is quite short of manpower, so he can be arranged to participate in our next restructuring."
Qiao Yuansheng, Wolong, has complained to him several times recently about the lack of manpower.
He wanted to investigate clearer data on the territory's citizens, preferably by quantifying each person into intuitive numbers.
If someone else does this job, it may take a long time to get used to it.
But for Hao Qiang, it was as friendly as going home, and it couldn't be more suitable!
"Thank you, Director! Don't worry, Director, I will definitely continue to work hard in the village."
"Hao Qiang will definitely bring your gifts and glory to every corner of the territory!"
After living in Liberty City for a while, Hao Qiang unknowingly acquired the unique "glib accent" there.
After saying his overjoyed words, he happily took the people back to rest.
In front of the shelter door, there were only two coolie lizards pulling the cart, raising their heads and trying their best to please.
"You're not bad, let's have extra dinner tonight!"
Patting the lizard's head, Somo took off the reins and reached out to touch the big, unattractive beast.
hiss.
A slight static reaction occurs and a popping sound is made.
At this time, the green identification light was released, and an attribute panel immediately bounced back.
I just glanced at the name at the top.
Somo's legs couldn't help but feel weak, and he almost fell directly onto the concrete floor in front of the shelter door.
[Adventurer Type I Terminal Fully Automatic Printing Module Device]
[Description]: This is a special device composed of five independent modules. Its unique structure can replace most tedious operations manually. It only needs to input specified materials according to the equipment requirements, supply sufficient energy, and print the device.
It can fully automate the processing of materials, processing and cutting, module production, inspection and testing.
[Module durability]: 39.1% (Note: This durability does not mean that the module device is damaged, but refers to the aging of the components that cannot be replaced inside the module; this aging phenomenon is irreversible and will occur every time it is used and produced.
The degree of accelerated aging occurs; the durability returns to zero and the module is automatically scrapped)
[Production speed]: normal (1 unit/8 hours), fast (1 unit/6 hours), extreme (1 unit/1 hour)
[Materials required for unit production]: space crystal*2 units, purified brass*850g, purified iron*500g, purified aluminum*150g, purified nickel*100g, purified tungsten*50g, purified silver*185g, purified gold*20g
[How to use]: Expand the module in a normal atmospheric environment, turn on the power, put in the materials, and then select the production speed and quantity in the pop-up screen.
[Evaluation]: Before getting excited, please take a look at the material list~
The mountains and rivers are full of doubts and there is no way, and the willows and flowers are dark and the flowers are bright in another village.
I thought that if I didn't find the terminal manufacturing equipment buried underground, I would miss it forever.
But who would have thought that after going around and around, Hao Qiang would actually bring back similar equipment.
And compared to the semi-finished products unearthed in Sudben, the future wasteland, this modular terminal manufacturing device is obviously stronger!
You only need to input materials and turn on the energy, and you can start manufacturing in a fool-proof manner.
Even though the materials required are indeed very demanding, including precious metals such as gold, it still gives people a hard-won hope.
As long as they are gathered together, Tianyuan Territory will immediately be able to have a steady stream of terminal production, which will be a great success for both foreign trade and personal use.
"The durability is only less than 40%, and I don't know how many terminals can be manufactured."
"If it's repaired, let me take a look."
Switching to another panel, Sumo saw the price it would cost to repair the terminal.
Survival points are not expensive. 1% durability only requires 500 survival points to recover.
But in addition, there is another thorny requirement.
Every 1% of durability recovery will simultaneously increase the threat level by 0.5%.
If 60% is fully repaired, it means that the threat level will skyrocket by 30%.
You must know that this is a 100,000-point level of threat shielding. Once it is used up, you can only grit your teeth and collect the points to reach a million-level shielding.
The price is a bit huge.
"Let's use it first and see if it doesn't work. It doesn't mean we can't afford the cost of repairing it. After all, after the storage space disappears, the space attribute of the adventurer terminal will undoubtedly be more important. In addition, the terminal also has some weird other functions. If you use it well,
It can perfectly serve as a small game board.”
Sumo called more than a dozen strong villagers to carry the device back to the first floor of the shelter. At the same time, he also brought the territory's chief physicist and head of the scientific research group who was obsessed with studying KF energy stones from the mine.
Lu Kuan shouted back.
As soon as he entered the door, Lu Kuan was so surprised that he almost dislocated his jaw when he saw the large metal cubes on the ground.
"Modular device?! Damn it, it's still a technology production industry. Where did you get this thing?"
"This is a good thing that surpasses our human technology by several dimensions!"
As a big boss in ancient times, Lu Kuan obviously knows a lot.
The source of the big block was recognized at first glance, and it also gave information that Somo didn't know.
"Our manpower stationed in the Demon Soul Clan's Free City picked them up before running away."
"Why, how do you know it's for technology production?"
Seeing Lu Kuan lying on the square and starting to explore, Su Mo smiled and asked curiously.
"Here, each modular installation has its own unique signature."
"Hammers and wrenches often represent production, and gears appear next to them, which means technology."
Pointing to the wrench and gear engraved on the upper right corner of the square, Lu Kuan explained:
"Those who buy this thing are really lucky. The number of modular devices distributed is actually limited, whether it is buried deep under the soil, hidden in the sea, or in other unknown places, or even
If someone intentionally sabotaged the device and caused it to be damaged, it will be included in this amount.
Once the number reaches the standard, the game will stop issuing rewards, which is one of the main means to limit the appearance of too many devices and destroy the balance."
"In addition, this kind of production device is really fool-proof. As long as we can load the appropriate materials according to the requirements and provide enough energy, it will produce continuously on its own. I have seen many such devices.
, some even only need to plug in energy, and the machine can automatically capture carbon dioxide, moisture and microorganisms in the air to synthesize protein."
"The meatloaf made from that thing is very similar to chicken in terms of texture and taste. Of course, if you want to eat other flavors, you can also add some seasonings to it to make a different meat feast."
Su Mo was surprised and said: "So powerful? Doesn't that mean directly solving the problem of meat resources in the territory?"
Lu Kuan nodded: "Yes, a large device can produce about 800kg of meat every day at full power, which is more than enough to supply a territory with a small population. It's a pity that this thing is not omnipotent. It also has a service life and may be used for as long as it lasts.
When the time limit expires, it will break."
"Is there no way to repair it?" Sumo's eyes lit up and he asked quickly.
"Of course there is no way to repair it." Lu Kuan gave the answer simply and neatly: "We don't even understand the most basic principles of modularization. It is impossible to repair it. To put it nicely, we are users.
What’s worse is that we haven’t even found a way to gently dismantle it.”
"If you choose to dismantle it violently, no one has wanted to dismantle this thing before, but after opening it with a plasma cutting machine, the contents inside have long been burned to black charcoal by themselves, and there is no research value at all.
Over time, the biggest mission of this thing after it wears out is to put it in an underground safe room, protect it, and wait for the wisdom of future generations."
"So we can find this device as long as we find the underground safe room?"
Lu Kuan was stunned for a moment.
"Why would you look for him for a broken thing? I don't know where it is hidden underground. If you want to find it, you can only rely on it. Just like now, it all depends on luck."
"It's okay, I just asked out of curiosity." Sumo nodded and avoided the topic.
With the game's surveillance, he certainly would not tell Lu Kuan that he could repair the damaged module device.
But according to the information provided so far, looking for similar devices has finally found a reliable way.
As long as you can find an underground safe room, you will most likely be able to follow the clues and dig out more than one modular device.
If we could really find a protein-generating device that Lu Kuan talked about, it would really be a timely help for the current territory, which would greatly alleviate the material pressure.
