435 Total War (December 12.5)
Link took the helicopter back to wind howl Castle.
The soldiers on the helicopter saw Link’s smile, but they didn’t know why. They didn’t dare to ask.
Link, on the other hand, was extremely satisfied with the gift he had prepared for the Queen.
When the frontline was almost settled, it would be time to visit the old place and have a showdown with grace.
Link was in a good mood when he returned to the castle.
seeing this, the macaw’s eyes curved into crescents. it poked link with its smiling eyes and said, you’re smiling so happily. Was the matter very successful? ”
The macaw was also involved in this, so link didn’t hide it. He said bluntly, ” it’s going very well. After the war on the front line is over, I’ll take you on a tour of the old place and see the new quagmire of death.
The macaw shivered in fear and shook its head like a rattle. It quickly refused, ” “Forget it, forget it. I don’t want to go to that place a second time. Do you think I don’t know what you’re thinking? after going there, you’ll definitely not only find the Harpy, but you’ll also go to the underground base a second time, and you might bring back some strange things.”
Link had a whole new level of respect for the macaw.”I didn’t expect you to understand it so thoroughly.”
The macaw snorted, placed its wings on its waist, and raised its head, ” “Can’t I?”
I’ve already caught the low-level aberration, ” the macaw said. have you thought about how to deal with it? ”
Although it had already been locked up in a cage, the macaw still had a lingering fear when it passed by. As long as this fellow existed, it would not feel at ease.
let’s leave it there for now. Let’s see how it lives without a mouth and a nose.
Link returned to his office. Soon, he received an email from the link building. It was from supervisor penny. The content was a business plan for the monster security company’s desert oasis survival exploration.
Lin Ke opened the document and looked at the design discussed by the think tank. He was full of praise.
For example, each Inhumans were only allowed to bring one hot weapon and 100 rounds of ammunition, but there were no restrictions on cold weapons.
The time to enter the desert oasis was also set. There were four options: three hours, six hours, twelve hours, and twenty-four hours. The price of each option was different. If players could not return according to the scheduled time, all the loot in the desert oasis would be invalid. This eliminated the possibility of players escaping solo after entering.
Moreover, they had also set up a disciplinary mechanism. If a small team came, the entire team would have their points deducted. if he entered alone, his credit system in the sand capital would be affected after his points were deducted. The Lin family financial group’s various businesses in the sand capital, as well as Shenmu City and the military intelligence Department, all had the right to refuse entry.
The strict credit system put an end to the players ‘sneaky ways and situations of taking advantage of others. the price to pay for playing tricks on this was definitely higher than the profit.
As for the price, three hours was 3000, six hours was 5000,12 hours was 10000, and 24 hours was 15000.
Link immediately saw the psychological and game theory behind the price. As expected of a dark blue grade pet, its ideal was to build a money empire. It was just that the knowledge contained in this price was enough to be studied.
The first was 3000 wasteland coins for three hours. There was nothing much to say about this. It was to set a benchmark and also to let the players have a clear understanding of the value of time in the Gobi oasis-1000 wasteland coins per hour!
The next six hours cost 5000 wasteland coins. There were three more hours, but the price was only 2000 more. It gave the players the feeling that buying it was a profit. Hence, if players were given three hours and six hours at the same time, they would definitely be more inclined to stay for six hours. Even if they couldn’t last for six hours, five hours was still worth it.
the second one was 10000 for 12 hours. this one was different from the previous ones. the average price was the same as six hours, so it didn’t show its advantage. However, compared to 24 hours, the price was doubled, but it was only 50% higher. In comparison, it was very affordable.
even if he couldn’t stay for 24 hours, he could still earn back his money by staying for 16 or 17 hours.
By placing these four prices, it was already a round of subtle questioning to the players, allowing them to make their own judgment of value and thus affect the result of their brain’s choice.
although the six-hour and 24-hour projects were worth it, most people wouldn’t spend all this time on their watches. leaving early was the source of extra profit.
There was also a table and a sector diagram in the report. After some analysis and calculation by the actuary, the four options could produce an additional 20% or more of profits.
The professional things were left to the professional people, and the business-related things were left to the Penguin penny.
After reading it, link immediately wrote down his reply: Approved.
There wasn’t much time left for Shandu.
Since the appearance of the wolf cavalry, the machinery faith and the wasteland gang’s activities in the desert had decreased a lot.
This was not good news for link. The machinery faith and the wasteland gang were gathering their strength, planning to do something big before the new year.
After approving the business plan that penny spent the night working on, the promotion of the Gobi oasis would be handed over to penny and the media department. What link had to do now was wait for the players to hand him the money so that he could complete more tasks to make up for the deficit.
After finishing his work, link even surfed the internet for a while to check on the recent hot topics in the sand City and the freedom Federation.
Nothing major had happened in Sandu, and the recent events were all related to players.
The conflict between the players and the Uptown dignitaries;
The large number of players had taken away the job opportunities of the natives;
News of the wolf cavalry entering the city, causing many people to be shocked.
As for the freedom Federation, they had also published several inspiring articles in the past two days.
Dragon City was fully prepared to defend against the beast tide after the new year, and Faye’s attention was always on the dark forest in the East. Under such circumstances, the new general of the sand capital had taken office, and they still had to go to war with the machinery faith and the wasteland gang. The people of the sand capital sat still and did not panic. On the contrary, all kinds of rumors were flying around about Dragon City and fa ye, making it seem as if the freedom Federation was going to disintegrate the next day.
After reading the message, link closed the webpage.
The situation on the wasteland planet was in a stalemate, and the freedom Federation was facing many problems.
“It seems like I’ll be the one to break out of this situation.” Link mumbled. He only had to wait until next year to conquer the gale desert and the sand City would re-incorporate the desert into its territory. The ruins, towns, and underground resources in the desert would bring various economic benefits to the sand City.
On the freedom Federation’s level, once the sand City had resolved their worries, they would have time to help Dragon City and fa ye solve their problems. At that time, the entire situation on the entire wasteland planet would welcome a huge change.
Link stood up and walked to the balcony to enjoy the fresh air.
As far as the eye could see, there was an oasis “enclosure” dozens of kilometers away with hundreds of thousands of animals living in it. There were oases and flowing water, Gobi deserts, Hills and man-made stones. There were all kinds of terrains.
If the Aboriginals in Shandu were to build it, it would take at least three to five years to build a man-made landscape of this scale.
However, with the resources of hundreds of thousands of players in his hands, the players fought day and night. In less than a week, the gray desert had changed.
These wild beasts would become the players ‘experience points, helping them to improve their strength and play the role they should have.
In the process of hunting, the players would go through a man-made process of survival of the fittest. The stronger and more agile animals would be selected and synthesized by Link’s “creator” to become a powerful member of Link’s beast Army.
Link was standing on the balcony when he suddenly heard a squeaking sound from the garden below.
Looking closely, there were no pets or animals on the lawn.
...
Squeak ~
The voice sounded again. Link followed the sound and finally saw a cobalt beetle with a Silver Metallic luster on its back at the entrance of the cave.
The cobalt beetles that were previously deployed for exploration had returned?
Link jumped down from the second-floor balcony and caught the cobalt beetle in his hand. At the same time, the cobalt beetle also pushed an irregular round ball with a metallic luster that was completely different from the color of the ground around it.
The way these insects communicated was different. However, link now had the [ insect commander ] talent. His mind immediately turned dark, and in the darkness, there were ” stars “. Each bright spot represented a synthetic creature.
Where link was, the stars were as bright as the Milky Way. Countless pets were shining with their own light.
in the darkness, there were dozens of weak lights scattered around, forming a large spot of light.
Link furrowed his brows and looked down into the cave. He didn’t see any other cobalt beetles.
He then picked up the metal ball and checked it. The system showed that it was cobalt metal.
Link’s eyes brightened. He finally understood why only one cobalt beetle had returned.
Looking at the shining cobalt in his hand, Link’s eyes flickered. He activated the power boots on his feet and jumped back to the second-floor balcony. He rushed to the study room and fumbled with the map of shadu on the wall, trying to find the locations of the bright spots.
...
link’s perception range was 14.5 kilometers. with this range as the boundary, link began to look for a position in the same direction and angle on the map. the pen in his hand slowly moved and finally stopped.
“This is the place,”
Link put up a red flag at the coordinates.
If one looked at the map of the front line of the sand capital, they would find that link had planted the flag between Shenmu City and the Garia Grand Canal. The distance between them was almost the same.
This place had a special mark on the map. It was located to the West of the gale desert. It was a red stone Mountain that was half-exposed and formed by many red spikes. Because its appearance was similar to the spine of a mythical creature, the giant dragon, it had a domineering name-red Dragon Ridge.
The Red Dragon Dagger was desolate and uninhabited. Because of the sharp stones, it formed a huge Valley, and the inside was like a maze.
Many animals mistakenly entered and were unable to walk out, turning into a pile of white bones after a few months.
Only one kind of animal could regard the Scarlet Dragon dhole as its home, and that was the Vulture.
vultures built their nests on the mountain ridge and went out to hunt for food. they also fed on small animals that entered the valley by mistake.
the sharp curved stone body and the sharp eyes of the vulture crouching on the tip of the stone were the epitome of the scarlet dragon dagger.
Link played with the cobalt ball in his hand and stared at the map in deep thought. Memories of the past flooded his mind.
The Red Dragon dormitory was not famous for its cobalt ore. In version 2.0 [ type one contact ], the alien demonic race had opened four dimensional portals to conquer wasteland. Demonic soldiers had continuously appeared on wasteland through the dimensional portals and built camps. The red Ridge mountain happened to be the location of one of the teleportation camps, [ demon forging camp-divine punishment ].
It seemed that the cold weapons in the hands of the demon soldiers at that time, which emitted green radiation, were made from the rich cobalt and iron minerals under the Redridge Mountains.
due to the demons ‘invasion, the three novice planets faced the same threat. the first order’s observer in the fandi system discovered this situation and sent reinforcements. that was how the players got involved in the storyline of the cosmic ray, and the theme of version 2.0-type one contact was deducted.
“Interesting.”
Link’s lips curled up.
If the location was here, he had more plans in his mind.
This cobalt ore would not only be used to deal with the machinery faith and the wasteland gang, but he would also include the alien demonic tribe in his plans.
Link sat down and called the military intelligence Department.
Ren Yi, the Deputy Director of the office of the military intelligence Department, was sleeping soundly with his legs on the table and a hat on his face.
The phone suddenly rang. Ren Yi was so scared that he shivered and his hat fell to the ground.
Ren Yi saw the exclusive phone number in his daze and suddenly woke up from his drowsiness.
“General, this is the Military Intelligence Office. What instructions do you have?”
“A large amount of cobalt ore has been found underground at Red Dragon Ridge at Gale desert coordinates (232,093,723). cobalt ore would be an important resource for new energy in shadu and would play an extremely important role in the war. I now order you to draw up a task and arrange for the Inhumans to go to Red Dragon Ridge to build fortifications and underground reinforcement measures to ensure the safe and orderly excavation of the cobalt ore.”
After Ren Yi heard the news, his head suddenly buzzed.
red dragon daggers, cobalt ores, new energy, a few important words flashed through his mind.
He realized that the turning point of this war might be coming soon.
Ren Yi immediately opened the map on the computer and locked the coordinates of the Scarlet Dragon Dagger.
West of the gale desert, between the weeping Valley and the Goria Grand Canal.
Gulu!
ren yi swallowed his saliva. ” general, this location is between the crying valley and the goria grand canal. it is also within the enemy’s sphere of influence. if we send inhumans to build fortifications, it will definitely attract the attention of the enemy’s patrol and we will be attacked. ”
that’s right. That’s why this mission is very difficult. You know what to do, right? ”
Although link didn’t make his position clear, Ren Yi understood that this was a death order.
He straightened his back, his eyes bright and full of energy, and said with confidence, ” “I’m determined to complete the mission!”
After hanging up the phone, Ren Yi looked at the Red Dragon Dagger that looked like the skeleton of a giant dragon.
This place would become the only focus of the battle between the two sides.
The all-out war with the machinery faith and the wasteland gang was about to begin!
P.S: ” I’m making up for yesterday’s chapter. I have to go out during the day to do something. The chapter will probably be in the middle of the night. I’ll be able to update it again on Monday.
