When he opened his eyes again, Cheng Shaofeng's vision had returned to the natural disaster base.
"This transformation of space is like traveling through time."
Although Cheng Shaofeng can remotely control the shadow guard, his mental power is not strong enough. He cannot control his body well when he is fully controlling the shadow guard, so the lord of the base just sleeps when he has nothing to do.
When the energy is full, make a bunch of [Explosive Ammunition], and then continue to sleep. If there is going to be a fight over there, just shut down the phone here and devote all your energy to the operation over there.
From the player's perspective, the lord seems to have a bug. He is working and suddenly stops working. After a while, he continues working and goes to sleep after finishing the work.
Uncle Tian: "Brother! I heard that you are a programmer. What do you have to say about the Lord's situation?"
The new player "Turkey Flavored Crispy Rice" thought about it for a while and said something meaningful:
"Hey! As long as the code can run"
The actions at Colossus City have no impact on the players in the natural disaster base. Everyone is still doing their own thing.
In the store, Wu Jie's business is very good!
There have been a lot of monster explosions recently. Players have become richer. After hoarding a lot, they will sell some useless things and receive a lot of various inlays and equipment.
According to Cheng Shaofeng's instructions, he put the product on the market at twice the purchase price so that other players in need could buy it.
After all, everyone plays in different genres. [Undead Condensation], which is not very useful to barbarian players, is a key item for spell machine gun players.
Influenced by the "Rolling Washing Machine" new player's strongest guide to clearing the land, many new players choose the "Mysterious" and "Judge" professions to clear the land!
The power period of these two professions comes early, and their skills can cause large amounts of critical damage to ethereal spirits. However, ethereal spirits seem to be endless at night, and they gain experience very quickly!
Far more cost-effective than fighting mutated creatures!
Mutated creatures are powerful individually, with high bursts, high blood, and high experience. Most of them are refreshed individually, so they are more suitable for experienced players. New players should still refresh Void Spirits. It doesn't matter if they have less experience. Just use a large amount to get enough.
At this time, seeing Cheng Shaofeng wake up, Wu Jie immediately went over and asked: "Brother Feng! I have collected too much [Undead Condensate] here. The soldiers only sell but don't buy. Should we stop the acquisition? Otherwise, it's not the case."
Blood loss?"
Cheng Shaofeng waved his hand: "Collect it! Not only must we continue to collect it! We must also collect it vigorously! Maintain the original price!"
Wu Jie: "Well, you can give out the money as you like anyway."
Wu Jie still thought that Cheng Shaofeng's iron coins were just a random number, and he could get as many as he wanted.
The last country that had the same experience as him was called Zimbabwe.
If currency does not have a physical object as an anchor, it will soon become worthless!
Cheng Shaofeng used food, guns, ammunition and other basic living supplies as a guarantee for the natural disaster base's iron coins, so players wanted to make money desperately.
Players are not stupid either. Once they find that iron coins cannot buy useful things in the natural disaster base and no one outside admits it, no players will do any tasks that reward iron coins. Cheng Shaofeng will take it from the players.
Didn't get any supplies.
The control over the player will plummet.
Therefore, if Cheng Shaofeng wants to maintain a stable price in a base, he must have incomings and outgoings. He uses the players' materials to do business, and then buys more valuable materials and brings them back to the base. If both sides make some money, they can get better and better.
The bigger.
[Undead Condensate] is a good thing he plans to export!
He has seen the effect of this thing. An ordinary high-quality enchanted necklace can be sold for 50,000+ at the Colossus City Merchant Guild. In the future, he will get more of this kind of equipment. He will no longer have to worry about money when he goes to Colossus City to buy things.
"Players are so blessed that they don't know how to be blessed. Let's take a look at how your business genius lord became the richest man in Colossus!"
Moreover, Shadow Guard walked around the Colossus City and got a lot of information from the caravan leader Liu, and he already had the next plan in mind.
"This winter, while growing up, I'm also stocking up on goods. I'll buy more crystals from the Chamber of Commerce and get the [All Things Synthesis Machine] out!"
This thing is a specialty of the three-stage base and can be used to synthesize new things from different materials.
Cheng Shaofeng didn't feel that it was urgent to build this building before, because he didn't have many things that could be synthesized, and he couldn't think of any good combinations.
But recently, players have picked up too many mutated creatures from the mountain col in the west. They have broken down into [material] items one by one, which have no other use. After the players stocked up a batch, they began to sell them in the store.
After all, players nowadays have relatively few iron coin reserves, especially inquisitor players. They consume a lot of bullets, and if they don’t go out, they can only buy them from the natural disaster base store. Without iron coins, they can’t do it.
The profession is powerful, but also very expensive.
Therefore, not only does the player's materials keep piling up, he also has a batch of materials that he cannot process.
This kind of material is not stored permanently. After all, this is a real world. It is not like in the game where it can be stored in a warehouse forever.
It has a shelf life!
For example, [Fiery Heart] will gradually wither after releasing heat for a period of time. Although it can still provide heat to the greenhouse of the natural disaster planting base, it is already smaller than when Cheng Shaofeng first obtained this material.
It is foreseeable that the heat will be completely gone after a month or two.
"Materials are collected from players. If they can't be used, they will be scrapped. It will be all my loss, and that's not okay!"
Therefore, he must quickly build the [All Things Synthesizer] and consume the materials. No matter what is synthesized, it is better than wasting it. What if an artifact is synthesized?
This building requires: 120 tons of mixed building materials (bricks, concrete, wood, stone, sand, ceramics, etc.), 10 tons of steel, 2 tons of plastic, 1 ton of glass, 100 electronic components and 10,000 energy.
Mixing building materials is easy to get. Huo Town is originally the ruins of a pre-apocalyptic city. If you find some broken bricks and concrete, it is no problem. You can cut stones from the surrounding mountains and dig out clay to make ceramics.
The number 120 tons sounds large, but it is actually the easiest condition to meet.
Cheng Shaofeng has asked the shadow guard to write 10 tons of steel, 2 tons of plastic and 1 ton of glass into the list for the dealer, and will bring it to them the next time the Chamber of Commerce departs.
100 [Electronic Components] were originally difficult to obtain, but Cheng Shaofeng saw that the player had obtained dozens of pieces from the Red City last time and submitted them to the base. As long as the player could continue to attack the Red City, it would not be difficult to get them together.
10,000 energy. Cheng Shaofeng could use it even if he didn't upgrade the base, but there is currently a major hidden danger in the base!
As the time taken to move to Huozhen became longer and longer, the hidden dangers became more prominent.
There are no items here to recharge your base like the Predator Radiant!
The energy of the natural disaster base can only go out but not in.
If it weren't for the large amount of energy collected by the raiders, the base would have stored a total of 75,000 energy, and it would be almost impossible to operate now!
"MD also said that he is preparing to rush the natural disaster base to the fourth stage in one go. It will be a good thing if the energy does not drop to the second stage now!"
The functions of the natural disaster base are provided dynamically. For example, you can enter the third stage only when you reach 20,000 units of energy, and unlock the [All Things Synthesizer] and [Treasure Hunting Nanorobot] in the third stage. Once the energy stored in the base is lower than 20,000 units, it will start again.
Go back to the second stage, and the functions of the third stage are temporarily unavailable.
It has been a week since Cheng Shaofeng moved to Huo Town, and he has summoned 300 new players. Whether it is generating clones, resurrecting clones, identification, decomposition, or tower defense, it all requires energy!
Now, the energy of the natural disaster base has dropped by 22,000 compared to before the move! And the energy continues to decrease by about 6,000 every day.
This energy consumption has only started to skyrocket in the past two days!
Because most new players have passed the 3-day novice stage and no longer sit in the base doing various infrastructure tasks, they all go out to kill monsters!
The decomposition energy consumption of the base has risen sharply!
Resurrection energy requirements have also increased relatively.
Although the [Loot Generator] is free for the first two appraisals every day, and charges after that, players are still enjoying it!
Anyway, the money they decompose is much lower than the value of the loot, and they can still make money by selling it to the store.
And Cheng Shaofeng cannot stop players from decomposing them. New players are officially in their growth period, and their equipment and inlays must keep up.
Therefore, he still has to solve the energy problem.
The shadow guard has already told Mr. Liu from the merchant, asking him to think about himself when he gets the special price crystals, and buy a batch next time he comes over.
"Are we going to have to buy crystal stones from Colossus City in the future?"
"This is unrealistic!"
"The cost is high and the supply is unstable. It cannot be used as a fixed source. We have to develop our own energy sources."
Speaking of the source of energy, Cheng Shaofeng remembered that Old Liu from the Chamber of Commerce told him about the source of [Mixed Crystal].
"The chaotic mutants he is talking about should be the humanoid monsters that can summon meat balls to the east of the base. They have chaos crystal mines there. Let the players brush this place. Maybe they can find the source of energy."
Just as Cheng Shaofeng was about to release the mission, the alarm sounded in the east!
Buzz~
The [Energy Emitting Column] located on the simple wooden wall on the easternmost side of the base was activated.
Fan-shaped radiation waves sweep past.
Several little pink monsters were swept through the air and fell on the spot.
It happened that the new player "The Inexplicable Green Invention" was at the base with a few of his friends. Hearing the alarm, they rushed over immediately. The crow spit out a few electric balls and collected the pink monster with residual health.
[Work together to kill the ‘Void Demon’, experience +10]
The experience value of this creature is very low, about the same as an ordinary predator. It is also rare here in Huo Town.
But the 'inexplicable green invention' saw two humanoid creatures covered in red not far away through his crow vision, and he immediately became energetic!
"This is a summoned object, and there is someone behind it. It looks like a new monster! Brothers, rush with me! Kill it!"
Immediately, about 10 new level 4 players followed.
Players at this time are no longer as cautious as they were when they first came here, especially new players! The ethereal monsters are mowing the grass every night, and they are very swollen! They don't care about the opponent's strength at all, and they have no thought.
But this time, with a large number of advanced crows tracking them, the red mutants were unable to escape the player's sight, and were eventually caught up, forcing them to fight back.
Among them, the mutant picked up a caterpillar from the ground and threw it towards the players.
Inexplicable: "That's it. Damn! It's such a big one!"
As soon as he spoke, the caterpillar burst out with a burst of blood energy in the air, its entire body exploded, bright red muscles grew out, and fangs sprouted from the corners of its mouth, turning into a pink ball of flesh.
He opened his mouth wide and bit it away.
The new player who didn't react for a moment was knocked down, bitten in the throat, and his blood flowed violently!
[The Void Demon caused a golden critical hit to the player's 'abnormal undead', HP-2000!]
Instant kill!
Void demons tear at the player's corpse.
Inexplicably, a teammate's call came to his ears: "Damn it! Mo Geqian, help me protect the body, don't let it chew it! It can be recycled!"
"Little things!"
‘Inexplicable’ and others quickly killed the void demon, and everyone gained 10 experience points again.
Although its fangs and claws are very fierce, the player's skills are not insignificant, and high-level crows beat it violently.
After several players tracked and circled around, after two players died, they finally killed two red-skinned mutants.
[Work together to kill the ‘Chaos Cultist’, experience +40! 】
[Work together to kill the ‘Chaos Cultist’, experience +40! 】
"Good guy, this monster is so strong. The way of summoning it is unique, and its body is quite strong. It's not weak at all in close combat."
The second player who died thought that this kind of mutant was just a summoned monster and would become useless after getting up close. As a result, he was taught every minute that this monster is also very powerful up close!
These level 4 players were able to defeat them both in the end, and most of the credit goes to the five level 8 crows in the team.
Although the crow can only summon one, its extremely high flexibility and high lightning basic damage can make it play a great role in pursuit.
"This is a new monster. I read on the official website forum that Xigou Ju, who always likes to write strategies, did not include this monster in his "Doomsday OL Monster Manual List". We probably got the first kill!"
About 10 people happily dragged the two corpses back to the city, expecting to find something good after decomposing them.
"I haven't asked the players to fight them, and they came to me first."
Cheng Shaofeng also saw the player's kill information through the communication base station, nodded and prepared to take a peek at what the chaotic mutants mentioned by the chamber of commerce were like.
"The predators are mutants transformed by radiation, and this red-skinned monster is a mutant transformed by chaotic energy. Theoretically speaking, there should be corresponding energy storage."
"But what's a little strange is that the personalities of these red-skinned mutants are obviously different from those of the stupid big predators. They had already chosen to avoid us when they first saw our forces. Why are there people attacking us at this time?"
He shook his head, not quite sure of the logic here. Of course. Facing a group of mutants whose brains were damaged by chaotic energy, there was no need for logic. He might just open his eyes in the morning and slap his head. Ah! Live enough.
Got it!
Here it comes.
While Cheng Shaofeng was waiting for the 'inexplicable' player to come back, a bird chirped loudly in the sky.
┗|｀O′|┛Ouch~~
A big bird flew towards the natural disaster base from the southeast at high speed.
"Eh? This big bird looks just like the one in Colossus City."
After a while, Cheng Shaofeng saw Agent Feng on the bird's back and reacted: "Fuck! It's just one!"
"Hiss~ This is the [Revenge Soul Stone - Cangniao] in Lao Feng's hand that can only be used once!"
"Why did he go to Colossus City? And use this rare item?"
"Wait a minute. Didn't you get caught using the Inquisitor's skills like me?"
The more he thought about it, the more likely it seemed to Cheng Shaofeng, and he immediately edited a world announcement.
【World Announcement!】
[Notice: According to reliable news from the City of Colossus, professional inquisitor players and official personnel of the City of Colossus are naturally hostile. All inquisitor players are not recommended to go to the City of Colossus. If you must go, please avoid using the inquisitor professional skills.]
After being notified three times in a row, all players within the coverage area of the base communication base station received the news.
At this time, the three agents Feng flew down from the bird. After the bird arrived at the base, the time was up and it turned into little bits of energy and disappeared into the air.
"Huh? Why are there two strangers here? Lao Feng won't cause trouble for me again!"
He angrily wanted to go over and question.
Agent Feng took the lead and said: "Lord! I have found a new profession for the base! And I have also brought new skills to the Inquisitor profession!"
Cheng Shaofeng:╭(⊙o⊙)╮
He stepped forward and took Agent Feng's hand.
"My good soldier, I know your exploration ability is unique! Second Battalion Commander, bring my spaghetti over and give it to Agent Feng."
