In fact, he had wanted to come for a long time. After all, the Purgatory Sect needed someone to take charge of the overall situation in the fifth difficulty.
However, Cliff is also a person who knows how to persevere. He knows that his strength is still far behind those of the old bosses, so he used the time in the fourth difficulty to strengthen his strength. He only used the holiday order. Two pieces, working hard in the wilderness every day.
Relying on the powerful Ice Phoenix and Fenglin Volcano, Cliff also gained a lot of benefits in the wilderness. It was not until recently that he finally broke through and entered here.
He entered the simulated world three days ago, but the base he chose was not on Titan, but on the lava star, the main star of the Purgatory Sect, which is their base camp.
When he came, he asked Meryl to say hello to Shen Yi, but because everyone was busy, they never met.
The same goes for Zhou Hao.
The leader of the Yunhai Team has been hanging out with the Dragon League on the Dragon King Planet after entering the fifth difficulty level. Hearing that Shen Yi came over, he asked someone from the Dragon League to say hello to Shen Yi, but everyone was busy. I didn't even have time to meet.
Seeing the two people coming in at this moment, Shen Yi stood up with a smile: "Let me guess why you came...a joint attack, right? It seems that someone is dissatisfied with my performance."
Cliff spread his hands: "I knew I couldn't hide it from you."
Cliff had only been in the simulation world for three days, which was the most critical moment for base construction. Shen Yi didn't believe that he suddenly came over at this time to reminisce about old times.
It would be fine if he was the only one who came, but Zhou Hao came too.
Shen Yi knew that Zhou Hao's recent situation was not very good. Not long ago, a Zerg attack almost captured his base and severely damaged his vitality. When he came over at this time, Shen Yi didn't believe it when he said that he didn't have any special mission. of.
With the distribution of promotional advertisements, Shen Yi is now well-known among the generals.
Completing the ten-man base in two months was quite efficient, not to mention unprecedented, and the image of the fortress giant was even more deeply rooted in the hearts of the people.
The three districts of East, West, North and West all attach great importance to Shen Yi, so in this joint attack, Shen Yi's performance will inevitably fall into everyone's eyes.
Shen Yi is so negative, so naturally people are not happy about it.
"It seems that some people don't like what I did, so I asked two people to talk about it." Shen Yi smiled and asked them to sit down and asked the guard to serve tea.
Cliff is considered the representative of the West District, and Zhou Hao is considered the representative of the East District. They all have the same idea of finding people. The North District also pays attention to it, but they are really not negotiation experts, so it is better not to send someone.
Cliff took a sip of tea: "I can't help it. Who told you to do something so outrageous recently? You don't think the Supreme Council can't see the tricks you play, do you?"
Shen Yi replied seriously: "This is not a trick, but for long-term development. Don't fight for the gains and losses of one moment and one place!"
Zhou Hao said earnestly: "Do you think the Supreme Council doesn't understand this? The joint attack itself is to weaken the Zerg. Without attacking the Zerg, how can there be stable development? If everyone is like you and allows the Zerg to grow uncontrollably, they will be defeated individually. Already."
"Then you have to make a choice. There is no need to sacrifice everyone's right to development."
"But it should be decided by the parliament, right?"
Shen Yi laughed: "The question is, is it possible for the parliament to decide? Two brothers, we are all here now, and who still doesn't understand who? The parliament is not suitable to stand up for this kind of thing at all. They can't choose who to sacrifice and protect whom, because it is fair and just It is the foundation upon which the bloody city relies!”
"There is no absolute fairness in the world."
"Yes, but Bloody City has it, at least on the surface. Everything is determined by the system. You get rewards for completing tasks, and you lose rewards for not completing tasks. It's that simple. The Supreme Council cannot decide who can develop and who can be sacrificed, unless they can make it happen The sacrificed adventurers will not be wiped out. But can they do it?"
"One day it will be done and the obliteration will be cancelled."
"But not now, right? So who can develop ultimately depends on the adventurers themselves. I know the council, so I know what I should do. This is my resource, I just make good use of it."
"You're not the only one who understands."
"You don't have to worry about them."
Cliff was helpless: "We also have scruples. The four major forces are basically joint bases. If we do this, it will not be a matter of one or two people, but a group of people, so we can't."
Shen Yi retorted: "Yes, that's why I don't want to join the joint base. Whatever I do, there will be a group of people watching, staring, and biting. How great it is now, I am free to do whatever I want! I have no organization, no Reliance, but no restraint. As long as I can get through the difficult beginning, I can have a bright future. Now that I have survived the most difficult period, we survived by ourselves, so now is my harvest. Fruit time!”
Those who are organized have scruples, while those who are unorganized have no ability. Everyone wants to do this kind of thing, but few can actually do it while retaining their strength and focusing on development.
Shen Yi added: "Besides, it's not like I won't go on an expedition. Aren't battleships also powerful? I will bring three battleships on this expedition. How many bases can you tell me that can bring out three battleships? Isn’t it okay if we use all the resources to produce warships? I can transport the troops of adventurers who have not bought warships on a voluntary basis, and the charges can be cheap.”
"Ahem...that's not called an obligation."
"Okay, discount."
"The problem is that you brought the battleship from your home world."
"So what? They exchanged it with points, but I exchanged it with points. Is my biological son not as good as their goddaughter?" Shen Yi laughed sarcastically: "You are pretending to be a godfather and have a sense of superiority. Already."
"...The problem is that this is not in line with your strength."
"Just keep up with the public."
"But those who are capable work hard!"
“But our current social stage is that the more we work, the more we get, and we distribute according to work!”
The three people were talking to each other, arguing, and the atmosphere became intense.
After arguing for a while, the three of them suddenly fell silent at the same time, and no one spoke.
It was Zhou Hao who sighed and broke the calm: "I originally wanted to take the opportunity to meet Brother Shen and have a good chat, but I didn't expect that we would quarrel as soon as we met. Forget it, why bother hurting your feelings about other people's affairs? Just pretend that I haven't been here. "
He said as he stood up to leave.
Shen Yi suddenly said: "What benefits did Longmeng promise you for you to convince me?"
Zhou Hao was stunned and replied: "My base was seriously damaged some time ago, as you know, I need support."
"How much support?"
"They can give me at least two hundred thousand points."
"What do you want you to do to convince me?"
"Help them eliminate at least one high-level brood."
"What about you?" Shen Yi turned to look at Cliff.
Cliff smiled: "The Purgatory Cult has 14 generals leaving the fifth difficulty level next month... eight of them have not completed the task of killing the high-level brood. I hope to send as many of them as possible safely away from this world. , this is also my responsibility as the leader."
"This will also improve your prestige, right? After all, you are the new leader."
"Yes."
"At least one?"
"It would be better if you could help more."
Shen Yi nodded.
He closed his eyes and thought for a while.
After a long time, he finally said to Zhou Hao: "I can help the Dragon Alliance kill at least one high-level brood, but they will have to lend you another five hundred workers."
There was a trace of gratitude in Zhou Hao's eyes: "Thank you very much."
Shen Yi turned to Cliff again: "The same goes for you. I will do my best to help the Dragon Alliance and the Purgatory Sect kill a high-level brood each, and I will forget about other things."
Cliff was not happy about this.
He knew very well that what Shen Yi promised was different from what others asked for.
What Shen Yi promised was just to help the Dragon League and the Purgatory Sect, but what about the others?
What they asked for was that Shen Yi bring enough troops to create more opportunities for them.
Resolving the brood and resolving stress are completely different things. The former is only for individuals, while the latter is for everyone.
Shen Yi's promise has nothing to do with these people, and they will not be grateful for it.
So Cliff looked at Shen Yi: "You will offend a lot of people."
Shen Yi sneered disdainfully: "Why should I care about other people's opinions? You have to resolve your own affairs after all. If you put your destiny on others, it is not an exaggeration to call it a waste."
"But there are many such people. If you don't help them today, they won't help you in the future."
"I don't need it." Shen Yi raised his eyebrows and replied, "Don't tell me that you didn't see the situation in the base when you came."
"That's it..." Cliff was speechless: "We built two military bases in three months, with a standard of twenty people. No matter how many generals go to the end, they may not be able to complete this step."
"I can't help it, my foundation is good."
Shen Yi is very immodest.
But it's true, there are not many people who can throw away 800,000 yuan of investment as soon as they come in. But with such development, if he didn't have strong personal strength, battleships and fortresses, he would have been demolished countless times. Among them, the first The second and third insect attacks are the most dangerous.
The base does not need to be dangerous every time, but it only needs to be dangerous once and it will often be doomed.
"But it's still not enough!" Zhou Hao reminded.
"I didn't say that I had expanded to the limit." Shen Yi replied leisurely.
Cliff frowned: "You want to expand?"
"Well, we plan to expand to ten military bases and a standard unit of one hundred people. How about that? I plan to build a joint base myself."
This answer shocked both of them.
Zhou Hao shouted: "Holy crap, are you crazy? The bigger the base, the better! If it's too big, the Zerg won't let you go."
"Of course, if I remember correctly, the largest joint base currently is the Sixty-man Joint Base in the Eastern District, with a radiation area of 1.2 million square kilometers, right?"
"So what?"
"That's why I said ten ** bases. The standard of ten people per base is based on one million square kilometers. Look, we are not the biggest."
"...But there are sixty people in the Dragon Alliance base, but you only have six!"
"Yes, so this joint base can satisfy my appetite." Shen Yi said confidently.
Cliff and Zhou Hao were speechless at the same time.
Shen Yi already smiled and said: "Think about it, a million square kilometers of radiation area can install 300 energy converters, providing 200 energy beads every day. That's 60 million a month, what else can be better than this of?"
"Then you still have eight bases left. Do you want to build them in the year of the monkey and the month of the horse?" Zhou Hao asked.
"It's not necessarily the year of the monkey and the month of the horse. One month's income from a ** base is enough to support the entire construction cost of a base. Considering the reduction of repeated construction, there is even a surplus. So it took two months to build the first base, and the second
The base only lasted a month. So next month I can
If I build two towers directly, I can build four towers next month. That’s eight towers. There will still be time left to complete the last two towers in the sixth month. Of course, considering the battle losses, we will count it as six months.
Just finish all the base construction, and leave six months to build troops... that should be enough."
"War is not addition or subtraction."
"As long as you have enough strength, you can make it into addition and subtraction."
"The problem is that the bigger the base, the more troops there are, and the smaller the proportion of adventurers' personal strength. Regardless of satellite bases, there are only ten main bases, and your Broken Blade team only has six people, and one person is not enough to defend one.
"
"I have my own way of manpower, but of course it won't work if I have more people, so I'll be content with building it as big as this."
"I'm satisfied...you really don't have a big appetite."
"Thanks for the compliment."
"...I'm not complimenting you." Cliff was so angry that he was speechless.
A team actually wants to build a joint base that is bigger than the joint bases in the two northwest districts. It's so fucking crazy.
Of course, this is indeed possible in theory.
But it's just a theory.
Shen Yi must ensure that while investing all his funds in expansion, he can still insist on not causing huge losses due to Zerg attacks.
Even the joint bases of major organizations cannot guarantee this.
Cliff didn't know what Shen Yi's guarantee was.
But Shen Yi is very confident.
The basis of his confidence is that in the past three months in the simulated world, the home world has successively completed multiple battleships, the number of which far exceeds the adventurers' imagination.
His big universe plan has been completely successful, and his long-term investment has been transformed into strength.
He also has a large amount of removable equipment in the home world. The home world is about to collapse, and these relocatable equipment will greatly reduce the financial requirements for base expansion.
With such confidence, what can Shen Yi not dare to think about?
On the other hand, if he can't even do this, why should he challenge the master?
After Youran drank the last sip of tea, Shen Yi said: "So, it's not that I need their help, but that they need to follow me and pick up the leftovers."
