Chapter 435: Total War
Link took a helicopter back to Wind Howl Castle.
The soldiers on the helicopter saw the smile on Link's mouth, but they didn't know why the general was smiling, so they didn't dare to ask.
As for Link, he was very satisfied with the gift he gave to the Banshee King this time.
When things on the front line are almost settled, it's time to revisit the same place and have a showdown with Grace.
Back at the castle, Link was in a good mood.
Seeing this, the macaw's eyes curved into crescents, and poked Link with a smile: "Laughing so happily, did things go well?"
The macaw also participated in this matter, so Link did not hide it, and said bluntly: "It's very smooth, and when the frontline battle is dealt with, I will take you to visit the old place again and see the new quagmire of death."
The macaw was so frightened that it shook its head like a rattle, and quickly refused: "Forget it, I don't want to go to that place a second time. You think I don't know what you think, and after I go, I will definitely not only look for eagles. If you are a banshee, you will definitely have to go to the underground base for a second trip, and you may bring back some strange things at that time."
Link looked at the macaw with admiration: "I didn't expect you to understand it so thoroughly?"
The macaw snorted lightly, put his wings on his hips, and raised his head: "That's not possible?"
Then the macaw said again: "I have caught the primary aberration, have you thought about how to deal with it?"
Although it has been locked in a cage, the macaw still has lingering fears when it passes by. It will be uneasy for a day if this guy exists.
"Let's just leave it there and see how it lives without a nose and nose, and can't eat."
Link returned to the office, and soon received an email from Link's Building on the computer. It was sent by Director Penny. The content was about the monster security company's plan for wild survival and exploration in the Gobi Oasis.
Link opened the document and looked at the discussions and designs of the think tank, and he was full of praise in the end.
For example, it is stipulated that each alien can only carry one hot weapon, and only 100 rounds of ammunition, and there is no restriction on cold weapons.
The entry time is also stipulated. There are four options: three hours, six hours, twelve hours and twenty-four hours. The price of each option is different, and if you can’t come back at the scheduled time, all the spoils in the Gobi Oasis will be invalid, and no It increases the possibility of players escaping orders after entering.
Moreover, a picket mechanism has also been established. If a team comes, a point deduction will be given to the entire team. If it is entered by a single person, the subsequent credit system in Shadu will be affected after the deduction of points. The various industries of the Lin Consortium in Shadu City, Shenmu City, and the Military Intelligence Department have the right to deny the other party entry.
Strict credit system prevents players from cheating and licking wool. The price to pay for playing tricks on this is definitely higher than the profit you get.
As for the price, it is 3,000 wasteland coins for three hours, 5,000 for six hours, 10,000 for twelve hours, and fifteen thousand for twenty-four hours.
Link saw the psychology and game theory contained in this price at a glance, and couldn't help sighing in his heart: It is indeed a pet of dark blue quality, ideal to create a money empire. Just the knowledge contained in this price is enough to study it well.
The first is 3,000 waste coins in three hours. This is nothing to say. It is to set a yardstick first, and it also allows players to have a clear understanding of the value of time in the Gobi Oasis - equivalent to 1,000 waste coins per hour!
Immediately after six hours, five thousand waste coins, three hours more, but the price is only two thousand more expensive, which gives players a feeling that if you buy it, you will earn it. Therefore, if three hours and six hours are placed in front of the player at the same time, the player will definitely prefer six hours.
The second is 10,000 in 12 hours. This is different from the previous one. The average price is the same as that in 6 hours, so it does not reflect the advantage. But compared with 24 hours, the price has doubled, but the price has only increased by 50%, which is very affordable in comparison.
Even if you don't stay for 24 hours, but you can stay for 16 or 7 hours, you can still get your money back.
When these four prices are set out, a round of PUA has been virtually performed on the players, allowing them to make value judgments themselves, thus affecting the results of the brain's choice.
Although the six-hour and twenty-four-hour projects are very valuable, most people will not completely consume these hours with the watch stuck, and the time to leave early is the source of extra profit.
There are also tables and fan charts in the report. After the analysis and calculation of the actuary, it is concluded that these four options can generate an additional income of more than 20%.
Professional things are handed over to professional people, and business-related matters are handled by Penguin Purney, that's right.
After Link read it, he immediately wrote an approval: Approved.
According to the time, there is not much time left for Sandu.
Since the appearance of the wolf cavalry, the activities of the Mechanicum and the Wasteland Gang in the desert have decreased a lot.
This is not good news for Link. The Mechanicum and the Wasteland Gang are accumulating strength and want to have a big wave years ago.
After approving the plan that Penguin Penny sorted out overnight, the follow-up publicity work for the Gobi Oasis will continue to be taken over by Penny and the media department. What Link has to do now is to wait for the player to take the initiative to hand over the money to him, and then use the more More tasks to make up for the lack of money.
After finishing his work, Link surfed the Internet for a while, and looked at the recent hot events in Sandu and the Free Federation.
Nothing major happened to Sandu, and he glanced at the recent events that were all related to the player.
Conflicts between player groups and uptown elites;
The large-scale appearance of players has deprived the aborigines of job opportunities;
The wolf cavalry entered the city, causing many people to frighten and other news.
As for the Free Commonwealth, there have also been some inspiring editorials published these two days.
Longcheng is making every effort to prepare for the beast tide after the year, and Faye's attention is always on the dark forest in the east. In this environment, the new coach of Shadu takes office, and he has to fight against the Mechanic Sect and the Wasteland Gang. Shadu's own people are not panicking, but all kinds of rumors and rumors are flying around Longcheng and Faye. It seems that tomorrow the Free Commonwealth will disintegrate.
After reading the information, Link closed the page.
The waste Saturn is now in a stalemate, and the Free Federation faces many problems.
"It seems that it's up to me to break the game." Link murmured, waiting for the Gale Desert to be conquered next year, and Shadu will reincorporate this desert into the territory. The ruins, towns, and underground resources in the desert will bring Shadu. various economic benefits.
At the level of the Free Federation, Shadu has solved his worries, and he will have time to help Longcheng and Faye to solve the difficulties. At that time, the entire waste Saturn pattern will usher in a big change.
Link got up and walked to the balcony, feeling the fresh air.
Looking far into the distance, there are hundreds of thousands of animals living in the Gobi oasis "paddock" dozens of kilometers in the distance, oasis flowing water, Gobi desert, hills and artificial stone dangerous peaks, all kinds of terrains.
If the aborigines in Shadu were started to build, man-made landscapes of this scale would never be built within three to five years.
However, Link had hundreds of thousands of player resources in his hand, and as the players fought day and night, it only took less than a week for the gray and bald Gobi to change.
These beasts will become the player's experience, helping them improve their strength and play their due role.
In the process of hunting, players artificially select animals with stronger strength and more agile responses, and accept Link's "creator"-style synthesis, becoming a powerful member of Link's beast army.
Link was standing on the balcony when he suddenly heard a creaking noise from the garden lawn below.
Upon closer inspection, there were no pets on the lawn, and no animals were seen.
squeak~
The sound sounded again, and Link followed the sound to search, and finally saw the cobalt beetle with a silver metallic luster on its back at the mouth of the crypt.
The cobalt beetle that was cast out for exploration last time is back?
Link jumped straight from the balcony on the second floor and reached out to grab the cobalt beetle. At the same time, the body of the cobalt beetle pushed an irregular ball with a slightly metallic luster that was completely different from the surrounding land.
The direct communication of this kind of insect creature is different, but Link now has the talent [Insect Swarm Commander], and a darkness immediately appeared in his mind, and there are "stars" in the darkness, and each bright spot represents a synthesis of Link's biology.
In Link's position, the stars were as bright as the Milky Way, and countless pets exuded their own light.
In the darkness, there was a place where dozens of faint rays of light were scattered, forming a large spot of light.
Link frowned first, then looked down at the crypt and found no other cobalt beetles.
Then he picked up the metal ball to check, and the system showed that it was cobalt metal.
Link's eyes lit up, and he finally understood the reason why only one cobalt beetle had returned.
Looking at the shiny cobalt metal in his hand, Link's eyes flashed, and the "Shock Power Boots" under his feet could be activated. He jumped back to the balcony on the second floor, and went to the study non-stop. The map location corresponding to each highlight.
Link's perception range is 14.5 kilometers. With this perception range as the boundary, Link began to look for positions in the same direction and angle on the map. The pen in his hand gradually wandered, and finally stopped at a point.
"That's right here."
Link planted a small red flag at the coordinate position.
If you look at the entire Shadu frontline map, you can find the place where Link's flag is planted, which is exactly between Shenmu City and the Grand Canal of Goria. The distance to both sides is almost the same.
And this place is marked on the map. It is located in the west of Gale Desert. It is a red stone mountain that is half exposed and arched by many red spikes. Because its shape resembles the spine of a mythical creature, there is also a domineering one. Name - Red Dragon's Back.
The Chilongji is deserted, because the spiked stones form a dense and huge valley, and the interior is like a labyrinth.
Many animals strayed into it, but couldn't get out, and after a few months they could only turn into a handful of bones.
There is only one animal that can call the Red Dragon's Back home, and that is the vulture.
Vultures build nests on mountain ridges and go out to hunt, and they also feed on small animals that have strayed into the valley.
The sharp and curved stone body and the sharp-eyed vulture squatting on the tip of the stone are the epitome of the entire Red Dragon Ridge.
Link played with the cobalt iron ball in his hand, stared at the map in deep thought, and memories of past events spewed out.
The Red Dragon's Back is not famous for its cobalt iron ore. In version 2.0 [First Contact], the alien demons opened four time-space portals to conquer the waste Saturn, and the demon soldiers appeared continuously from the portal to the waste Saturn. , and set up a camp. Redridge Mountain happens to be the location of one of the teleportation camps [Forge Demon Camp · Retribution].
From this point of view, there were many cold weapons exuding green radioactivity in the hands of the demon soldiers at that time, which were made from the rich cobalt iron ore at the foot of the Red Ridge Mountains.
It was also because of the demon race that the three novice planets faced the same threat. The observers of the Vatican Galaxy [First Order] discovered this situation and sent reinforcements to support the players. Theme for version 2.0 - Contacts of the first kind.
"interesting."
Link's mouth lifted slightly.
If the location is here, then there are more plans in his mind.
This cobalt iron ore will not only be used to deal with the Mechanic God Cult and the Wasteland Gang, but even the Alien Demon Race will be taken into account.
Link sat down and immediately dialed the MI.
Ren Yi, the deputy director of the MI Office, was sleeping soundly with his legs on the table and his hat on his face.
The phone rang suddenly, causing Ren Yi to shiver, and his hat fell directly to the ground.
Seeing the exclusive phone number in a daze, Ren Yi's sleepy worm suddenly woke up.
"General, this is the Office of the Military Intelligence Service, what instructions do you have!"
"A large amount of cobalt iron ore is found underground in Chilongji in Gale Desert coordinates (232, 093, 723). Cobalt iron ore will play an extremely important role in the war as an important resource for new energy in Shadu. I now I order you to immediately formulate a task and arrange for Inhumans to go to Chilongji to build fortifications and underground reinforcement measures to ensure the safe and orderly excavation of the cobalt iron ore."
After Ren Yi heard the news, his head suddenly buzzed.
Chilongji, cobalt iron ore, new energy, several important words flashed in my mind.
He realized that the inflection point of this war may be coming.
Ren Yi opened the computer map for the first time, and locked the coordinate output to the position of Chilongji.
West of the Gale Desert, right in the middle of Weeping Hollow and the Grand Canal of Goria...
Gollum!
Ren Yi swallowed: "General, this location happens to be between the Weeping Valley and the Grand Canal of Goria, and it is still within the enemy's circle of influence. If we send aliens to build fortifications, it will definitely attract the attention of the enemy patrolmen. to the enemy's attack."
"That's right, so it's a tough task, do you know what to do?"
Although Link did not make a clear statement, Ren Yi understood that this was a dead order.
Straightening his back, his eyes were bright, and he said confidently, "Resolutely complete the task!"
Hanging up the phone, Ren Yi looked at the red dragon's spine that looked like the skeleton of a giant dragon.
This place, in the ensuing battle between the two sides, will be the only focus.
And the all-out war with the Mechanicum and the Wasteland Gang is about to begin!
P.S: This is the chapter that made up yesterday. Today, I have to go out to do errands during the day. It is estimated that the chapter is also in the middle of the night. The update will resume on Monday~
