Chapter 386 Equipment Library

Although I have decided to focus on cultivating the Blood Crystal Flower, it is impossible for me to prepare the strongest equipment for her right away, and based on my experience, the strongest equipment may not actually be the equipment with the best attributes. It should be the equipment that suits you best. For example, two long swords of the same specifications have similar basic attributes, but the attack speed of one is slightly faster, but the attack power is lower than the other. Calculated according to the output ratio per unit time, the attack speed is higher. The faster one actually has a lower total output than the slower one. In this case, it can be considered that the slower one actually has better attributes, but it also depends on who is using it. If you are a heavy armored swordsman, then of course the slower sword with the highest total attributes is best, but what if you are a swordsman? There is no doubt that the faster sword is more suitable. Therefore, as long as there is no absolute data difference in equipment, then it depends on which attribute is more suitable for you, rather than which weapon's attributes are a little or two higher.

The Blood Crystal Flower followed me through the hall where the artifact sets were placed and went directly to the second floor. The hall on the first floor is basically only responsible for three kinds of work-recycling, repairing, and selling. Moreover, these three kinds of work are basically all It is external, which means that the first floor is mainly for lay players. Players in the guild generally go directly to the second floor except for repairing equipment.

Compared with the first floor, the lobby on the second floor is obviously much more luxurious, and the counter here is more spacious, but the number of windows is also much smaller. However, because it only handles the internal business of the guild, the busyness is actually Much more relaxed than the first floor.

After I took the blood crystal flower to the second floor, I didn't stop here. The blood crystal flower was about to go inside, but I grabbed me and dragged it up the stairs. After going up the wide corundum staircase to the third floor, you can see a small hall. The area here is only less than one-tenth of the second floor, but even so, it is three times the size of an ordinary classroom. There are only two counters in this space. The rest of the space is filled with tables, chairs and benches, and they are full of people, all of them NPC guards. The number of people is at least fifty.

Except for these NPC guards. There is also a player sitting here. In addition, behind the small hall, through a fence door, you can see a huge high-pressure explosion-proof door that looks like a bank vault door. There was a metal fence between the explosion-proof door and the small hall outside, and there were six defensive mobile Angels standing side by side on the left and right sides of the door.

Of course, these are just visible guards. In fact, the guard strength here is far from that. The walls on both sides of this small hall are actually only a thin layer of stone slabs. The outside has been decorated so it cannot be seen. But it can be easily broken at critical moments. There are twelve Mobile Angels sealed behind that layer of stone slabs, and they are all the latest models. Every time the mobile angels in our guild change. The mobile angels in these hidden positions were replaced immediately. In addition, there are many reliefs on the walls around this room. In fact, those are not all reliefs. Some of them are fixed energy transmitters. Behind the reliefs of the characters in the picture are powerful magic arrays. The eyes of the characters in the reliefs are transmitters. Their function is similar to the laser defense system, but this thing What happens is a dissociation ray rather than a laser, but the visual effect is almost the same.

In the center of the small hall is a statue of a fallen angel nearly three meters high. That thing is actually only a thin layer of plaster, and inside is a mobile angel used against the gods. Its combat power is absolutely off the charts. In this narrow environment, even if the gods face it, the survival rate is only 50-50. That’s all. In addition, there are many exaggerated-looking monster sculptures beside the stairs we just walked through. In fact, they are all golem guards. As soon as the alarm is sounded, those sculptures will come alive and attack the intruders.

Even if someone can get through the layers of defense outside and rush to the door. And it can destroy the door that is enough to withstand a full strike of the Lord God. There are a total of thirty-six defensive mobile angels, three mobile angels used against the gods, and a full two hundred steel golems in the shape of infantry in the room. The combat effectiveness of these things are all first-class. Even the main members of ordinary guilds will find it very difficult to fight against one or two of them. And if they are besieged by three at the same time, even a big guild like our Frost Rose Alliance The frontline staff of the meeting will also be a little confused. Of course, this also excludes the three mobile angels that use against the protoss. They are existences that can confront the protoss head-on. If an average player encounters them, if three or five people can join forces to contain one of them, it will be considered that this group of people is strong.

"Why are there so many guards here?" Blood Crystal Flower exclaimed as soon as she entered. It was the first time she saw a door that needed so many people to guard it.

The NPC who was leading us next to us turned around and said with a smile as he walked: "If you had a room containing tens of billions of crystal coins, you would arrange as many guards as we do."

"Tens of billions?"

"This is our guild's main equipment warehouse. All idle player equipment in our guild is locked here. Tens of billions is just a conservative estimate." After I finished speaking, I asked a guard sitting behind the counter. Said: "Who has the key?"

"Here." A guard sitting next to the door suddenly stood up.

The door of the equipment library requires two keys to be opened at the same time to be effective. One of the keys is in the hand of the player on duty that day, and the other key will be randomly placed among the NPC guards here, and except for that guard I and no one else know exactly who has the key, and the key is not always with the same guard. Instead, it changes to another guard every two days, and each time the key is transferred directly from the previous person to the next person. No one else knows except the two of them.

The advantage of this arrangement is that if someone invades and takes control of this place, they will definitely not be able to find the key because they don't know this rule. After all, most people will think that the two NPCs behind the counter are keeping the key, and no one will think of it. The key will be on one of the guards.

In fact, in addition to these two keys, a password is needed to open the door, and the holder of this password is the NPC who led us. He is the director of this equipment depot, and he has a device similar to a dynamic password card. This thing can synchronize with the password switch on the door lock, and the password can be changed forty-eight times a day, which is once every half an hour. When the supervisor needs a password, he can activate the device with his personal password, and then the device will output a string of passwords. This password can only be maintained for up to half an hour, and sometimes only for a few minutes. This mainly depends on how long it takes to switch passwords, and the time interval for switching passwords is not fixed. Although in theory it is once every half an hour, in fact the password change is random, and sometimes it takes as long as an hour. Sometimes it even changes three or four times in half an hour.

Because of the existence of this dynamic password and the two keys, it is basically impossible for outsiders to open the door of this equipment warehouse using normal methods. If they want to enter, they can only forcefully destroy the door, and this door and the surrounding walls have been specially treated. Not only does it use a multi-layer structure, with several layers of super-hard steel plates sandwiched between it, but most importantly, there is also a layer of reinforced magic circle inside. That gate is relatively weak. Even if there is a god-level existence in other positions, don't expect to open it every ten minutes. Moreover, even if the shell can be opened, it is useless, because the entire equipment library is actually divided into two layers. There is a vacuum interlayer between the outer shell and the real equipment warehouse inside. There is a vacuum trigger in this interlayer. If you use the normal method to open the door, there will be no problem, but if it is destroyed by violence. It will inevitably lead to a rupture of the vacuum layer. Once the vacuum layer ruptures, the trigger in the vacuum layer will be triggered immediately, and then a directional transmission array will be activated within a few tenths of a second. At that time, the entire inner equipment depot will be transported to the location. In a reserve equipment warehouse in the City of Commandments. In other words, if someone breaks in forcefully, when he goes through all the trouble to open the door or wall of the equipment warehouse. What you will see will be a clean, empty room, with nothing left in it because all the equipment has been teleported away.

Of course, if someone uses a space shielding device, it can certainly prevent the teleportation, but in that case he will have to face the group of guards in the equipment warehouse. and. Essinger is the headquarters of the guild. Even if someone can sneak in and rob, the guard strength here can definitely block the opponent for more than ten hours. With so much time in Essinger, even the tens of thousands of robbers who came here were probably killed dozens of times. Therefore, this kind of defense can be said to be almost impenetrable.

"Go open the door for me." I shouted directly to the guard who raised his hand, and he immediately ran to the door. The metal fence door automatically opened to both sides as soon as someone approached. Then we walked right in.

The two people holding the keys walked to the two mobile Angels on both sides of the metal door, then opened a cover behind the two Mobile Angels and inserted the keys in. The two Mobile Angels stretched out their hands facing each other. He inserted a hand into the two hidden holes in the wall.

In fact, these two mobile angels are specially designed mechanisms for opening doors. If someone takes the key and inserts it into the keyhole of the door, what awaits him will be a high-voltage electric shock of one billion volts. It only takes a few tenths of a second. It can make a person evaporate directly from the earth, and no scum will be left.

The key managers on both sides start the keys and turn them according to specific rules, while the mobile angel's arms are inserted into the wall and no specific changes can be seen at all. After they completed the rotation, the management NPC of the equipment library walked over and entered the information on a magic circle in the middle of the gate. There are no numbers on this magic keyboard at all, and of course it won't be in the shape of a nine-square grid, but a standard disk shape. This kind of password keyboard has special input rules. People who don't know it don't know where to press even if they have the password.

After the password input was completed, the big guys here immediately automatically rotated back a few centimeters, and then were divided into a dozen parts and shrank into the surrounding walls. What appears behind the gate is a five-meter-long passage. The walls on both sides of the passage are carved with permanent anti-invisibility, anti-camouflage and other detection spells, which means that you cannot disguise your identity here.

After walking through this passage, you will not enter the equipment warehouse. Instead, you will encounter a metal door. However, this door is not completely closed. There is a small window on it. A mobile angel will check who is coming through this window, and then he will open the door from the inside. This means that the door does not have a key. Unless it is one of your own, you can only break the door by force.

Because they saw that I was walking in front, and the magic circle in the announcement ensured that this could not be a person in disguise, the mobile angel inside opened the door directly.

After the door opened, I called out to Blood Crystal Flower to follow. The person in charge also walked in, and the others stepped back and closed the door again. The door will remain closed until I ask to come out instead of being opened all the time. This is also the rule to ensure that no one will take advantage of the opportunity to transport equipment in and out to rob.

"Oh my God!" Blood Crystal Flower was dumbfounded as soon as she entered the door inside, because in front of her was an unimaginably huge super warehouse. Our location is halfway up the warehouse. There are still five or six meters above the ground. In front of us are rows of neatly arranged equipment racks. Each equipment rack is seven or eight meters high and more than 20 meters long. The equipment racks in the entire warehouse are vertical. It was placed so that we could see two hundred columns, and each column stretched from our feet to an almost invisible place in the distance. After being stunned for a brief moment, the Blood Crystal Flower suddenly realized that something was abnormal here. Then he turned to look at me in surprise and asked, "Why is this place so big?"

Essinger's buildings are indeed very large, but the internal space of this equipment warehouse is obviously much larger than the building we entered before. Even if you don't take into account the halls on the first and second floors and the guard room outside, the space inside the equipment warehouse exceeds the actual volume of the building, and it is not a little larger, but two or three times larger. . What's more important is that this building looks basically square from the outside, but this warehouse is flat. Its internal height should not exceed the height of the building, but the length and width are seriously excessive, especially the length, at least. It is seven or eight times deeper than the depth of the building.

"Why is this happening?" Blood Crystal Flower asked again when she saw that I just smiled but didn't answer.

The NPC in charge next to him explained: "Hyperspace technology is used here. In fact, only the door is connected to the equipment warehouse and the outside space."

After hearing this, Blood Crystal Flower looked at us and blinked for a long time. Finally, a sentence suddenly popped up: "Although I don't understand what you are talking about at all, but...it feels like it is very powerful. Is this what you Chinese often call 'unconscious power'?"

"It's not as exaggerated as you said. Anyway, you just need to know that it is an independent and special space." I explained again.

Blood Crystal Flower nodded and didn't dwell on this. Anyway, she didn't plan to rob in the future, so it was useless to know this. However, she soon realized the problem she needed to face. "Then what? President! You don't want to find me a set of equipment from here, do you?"

I nodded and asked her in surprise: "Otherwise, why do you think I brought you here? For a visit?"

"But there are so many pieces of equipment here. If I pick each item one by one, wouldn't it take me several years?"

"You don't think that a warehouse as big as our guild doesn't even have a catalog, do you?" I looked at the Blood Crystal Flower in surprise and asked.

Blood Crystal Flower obviously doesn't know what an equipment catalog is. He thought it was the same thing as the catalog in the library, so he continued to ask: "But even if there is a catalog, judging from the amount of equipment in this place, the catalog would weigh at least several hundred kilograms and have tens of thousands of pages, right? When will I finish reading it?”

I stared at the blood crystal flower and wanted to explain it, but after thinking about it for a long time, I didn't know what to say. Finally he said helplessly: "Forget it, you'd better come with me! I probably can't explain it clearly if I don't show it to you!"

As I said that, I went down to the ground below the equipment warehouse with the blood crystal flower full of doubts. There is no equipment rack at the entrance of this equipment warehouse, but a small blank area. In addition to the place where the guards stay, there are also a dozen small mechanical platforms.

These mechanical platforms obviously contain magic technology and look very modern in appearance, but their surfaces are all covered with magic patterns. And there is a flash of light on it.

"What is this for? Isn't it for dancing?" Blood Crystal Flower asked.

Although the circle around these mechanical tables looks very mechanical, the top is a whole piece of white crystal. The platform was cylindrical, only one foot high, but more than two meters in diameter. It looked a bit like the kind of platform used for lead dancers to stand on in some nightclubs. Of course, there is no iron cage around our platform.

I did not directly answer Blood Crystal Flower, but lifted her up and placed her on one of the platforms. Then I walked over and stepped on a pedal on the edge of the platform. The platform immediately lit up, and in an instant A beam of light rose up and completely enveloped the Blood Crystal Flower.

The sudden change startled Blood Crystal Flower. She hurriedly wanted to jump down, but found that she was slowly floating in the air, and no matter how hard she struggled, she could not move at all. Although her hands, feet and body were not restricted, she could No matter how you move, your whole body is floating stably at a height of more than a foot away from the platform. No matter how you move, you cannot move your position.

"What is this?" Blood Crystal Flower struggled for a while and realized that we were all watching her joke. Then she realized that she was embarrassed again, and quickly calmed down and asked me what was going on.

I still didn't answer her because I didn't know how to answer. After all, she had never been exposed to this thing. It was too hard for me to explain it. I might as well let her use it by herself, so that she could understand it without explaining it. (To be continued.
