"It's quite difficult, but I haven't fought such a challenging boss for a long time. It's really fun."
Zhao Haiping wiped the sweat from his forehead and cleaned the battlefield with other players.
The armors and weapons and equipment left behind by the monsters contain demonic energy. Players can use them for a short time, but they cannot be carried for a long time like their own weapons and armors, so handing them over is the best option.
What's more, all the players are fighting against the monsters, so these loots cannot be taken by just a few people.
Everyone happily brought their weapons and armor back and prepared to hand them over to the blacksmith in exchange for money.
The money converted from these trophies can be distributed together with the rewards obtained from killing bandits according to the contribution value evaluated by the game itself.
For those players who died in battle, there will also be a small amount of compensation to encourage them.
Of course, these are the rules that Meng Yuan determined after careful consideration.
In fact, Meng Yuan does not support players who are mindlessly giving away lives and wasting precious orderer power, but he must also encourage them to have the courage to charge forward.
For example, someone like Fan Cun sells his life in order to end the battle more cleanly. This behavior must be encouraged, and the contribution value must be increased accordingly.
Along the way, other players cast envious and regretful looks.
"A large wave of monsters appears?"
"Damn, so much loot? You've made a fortune!"
"Damn it, I was busy moving bricks just now. I just heard the news and rushed here. The battle is over?"
Players who couldn't drink the soup simply sighed.
Soon, the resurrected Fan Cun and Zhao Haiping received their rewards and went to the blacksmith shop in the city again.
Fan Cun took out a handful of silver coins from his pocket and said confidently: "Brother blacksmith, bring me a new set of armor and a spear!"
Immediately, his voice became slightly lower: "Well, the mid-range one will do."
Although he got scared within a second, the other players did not laugh. Instead, they all looked at him with envy.
The reason is simple, the weapons and armor here are really too expensive!
Even the cheapest one is a bit unaffordable in the eyes of players.
The blacksmith shops in the fortress sell basically standard armor from the Dasheng Dynasty, with prices ranging from 40 silver coins to one or two gold coins.
Among them, the cheapest armor was 40 silver coins, which was equivalent to about four taels of silver in the history of the Dasheng Dynasty. If it was forcibly converted into real prices, it would basically be equivalent to more than 4,000 yuan.
This price is basically similar to the price that some armor enthusiasts pay for armor in real life.
Although the degree of modern industrialization is higher, and various raw materials and processing techniques are better than those in ancient times, after all, modern armors are basically made as collectibles, with low demand, low output, and high labor costs.
In ancient times, the status of craftsmen was very low, so labor costs were much cheaper.
But no matter what, no matter in any era, things like armor are an absolute luxury. Many powerful officials have their homes confiscated on charges of treason, and one of the charges is often for hiding armor.
There are several different types of armor in the blacksmith shop, but they are basically made of cotton armor. Water-soaked cotton is the main filling material, and cowhide and metal are used as composite defense materials. It became the most common armor in the middle and late Dasheng Dynasty.
Defensive equipment.
The main difference between these types of armor sold in blacksmith shops lies in the sophistication and style of workmanship.
Among them, the cheapest one sells for 40 silver coins, which is the most basic armor. It basically only has a helmet and a waistcoat, which is relatively doable.
The higher the price, the more protective parts there are, and the practicality and aesthetics will naturally increase accordingly.
For example, advanced armors include phoenix-winged helmets, unique shoulder armors, front and rear breast guards, and other structures. The material and workmanship fineness can also be seen to be significantly improved.
The armor that Fan Cun chose is mid-range. It sells for 70 silver coins. If you put it on the battlefield, it can be considered an elite.
Of course, there are also more expensive armors, and full-body heavy armor looks quite gorgeous, but neither the weight nor the price can be afforded by today's players.
After receiving the armor from the blacksmith, Fan Cun immediately took off his original armor and put it on on the spot.
The default armor for military soldiers was the most common light armor during the Chu Dynasty. It can basically be regarded as a waistcoat with two shoulder pads. It is lined with leather armor and decorated with iron armor plates on the outside. The defensive effect is very average.
After putting on the new armor, Fan Cun felt like he had a completely new look!
With a brand new spear in hand, Fan Cun felt even better about himself.
As for shields, bows and arrows... they are really out of money.
The armor and spears completely spent all the income Fan Cun had earned from killing bandits these past few days, and there was basically nothing left.
Fortunately, making money is not difficult. Hunting a pheasant or a hare in the fiefdom can be sold for dozens of silver coins, and the reward for killing a bandit is even greater. As long as you save money consciously and don't spend it randomly,
Basically, you can replace it with new equipment.
But Fan Cun proudly wore the armor and walked around twice, and suddenly felt a little disappointed.
"I remember that the Wei Dynasty and even the earlier Chu Dynasty had full-body iron armor, right? Why did they wear cotton armor in the Dasheng Dynasty instead? It's a bit boring."
Gu Xun
Zhao Haiping explained: "You don't understand this. I was also curious before, so I asked Chu Ge.
"What he said is that although iron armor is good, it weighs too much, easily weighing thirty or forty kilograms, which will seriously affect the marching speed. Iron armor is very useful when fighting heavy cavalry, but the main enemies of the Dasheng Dynasty came from the barbarians and barbarians from the north.
Dongyi's bandits mainly focus on raiding and harassing, so they must ensure their mobility.
"Of course, one reason is that this kind of armor is relatively cheap. If it were really pure iron armor, you would probably have to work for several days before you could afford it.
"What's more, the defensive performance of this armor is definitely much better than the most basic armor of soldiers. After all, the iron smelting technology and craftsmanship of the Dasheng Dynasty must have been much improved than that of the Chu Dynasty."
Fan Cun suddenly said: "So that's it. Will it be upgraded in the future? In the earlier dynasties, we can also wear full body heavy armor?"
Zhao Haiping: "How do I know this? I'm not the designer of this game. But based on common sense, it should be like this."
"I understand, that means I have to continue to make money!" Fan Cun happily left the city again, preparing to continue guarding the bandits who entered by mistake.
…
At the same time, Chu Ge, Li Weiyi and other players who were paying attention to the city's construction were standing in the square outside the city lord's mansion waiting.
The two-day voting is finally coming to an end.
In fact, there is no suspense in this vote itself.
Although many other players also proposed their own plans, Li Weiyi's plan undoubtedly received the most votes.
This plan was the result of repeated discussions with professional construction players and senior simulation management game enthusiasts in the game, and was confirmed in real life with friends in the industry. It won the support of most players.
In short, after an open, fair and strict voting, Li Weiyi’s plan was finally selected as the topographic transformation plan for this historical slice.
This transformation plan is currently just a series of parameters and does not have a specific terrain map, because the generated terrain itself is full of randomness.
But players are full of expectations.
Finally, Beichen walked out of the city lord's mansion.
Now that the voting is over and most players have approved this plan, then of course Beichen, the city lord, must use the power of construction value and sequencer to transform the entire historical slice.
Chu Ge couldn't help but look at the construction value figure written on the public notice board.
So far, the construction value of the Fortress of the Orderer is more than 1 million.
When the Fortress of the Orderer was opened, it had a construction value of 800,000. In the past two days, players were busy in the fief and the Fortress of the Orderer, saving more than 200,000.
I have to say that the players’ hard work is truly unimaginable.
In fact, the construction value that each player can accumulate for the city every day is not much, which ranges from a few to more than ten points. What's more, not every player likes to move bricks and fight monsters, and some prefer to practice in the illusion.
If you continue to play single-player games, no construction value will be generated at all.
It is already very fast to be able to save an additional 200,000 yuan in construction value in two days.
Beichen's body was seen stepping into the air again. At the same time, the players who were mining, hunting monsters, transporting stones and other materials outside the city were all teleported back to the city.
The whole city immediately became lively!
"Huh? What's going on? Am I dead?"
"I just dug a big piece of ore in the mine, and I haven't even wielded the pickaxe yet. Why did I come back?"
"Why are so many people gathering here?"
Fan Cun was sent back not long after he left the city, and now he looked confused.
It wasn't until they looked at Beichen floating in the air that the players who had been sent back vaguely guessed: something big was about to happen!
I saw Beichen's hands raised slightly, as if mobilizing the powerful power of the Orderer, and then, the construction value numbers on the public notice board began to decrease rapidly!
1 million, 990,000, 980,000...
Thousands of coins can be dropped almost every second.
The players who worked hard to move bricks took a breath when they saw this scene.
Although I have done some psychological preparation in advance, it is still a little painful to see it at this time.
The construction value saved bit by bit by moving bricks is spent like water, too fast!
However, most players have realized what is going on.
The plan that has been debated for two days has finally come to fruition. The terrain of the Fortress of the Orderer will be changed!
After the terrain changes, you can re-plan the construction of the city and build it into an impregnable fortress step by step!
As the aura of awe filled the entire historical slice, players felt the ground beneath their feet begin to rumble and tremble.
The ground in the small county town has not changed, but the surrounding terrain is changing!
Players can even feel that they are constantly improving!
