Chapter 299 Corps system upgrade!

  Dawn City North Runway.

  A wooden plane knocked crookedly on the runway, bumped up and down several times, and finally stopped.

  Looking at the speed dial returning to zero, Mosquito, who was holding his breath, heaved a sigh of relief, and finally let go of his hanging heart.

   "Mom..."

   It can be regarded as coming down!

  Two shots were shot on the belly of the fuselage and five shots were shot on the wings. This was the case when he took the risk of falling apart during the lifting process and performed a roller maneuver.

  Are these hostile NPC Nima Takov’s men’s team?

  Rifle fire can have such a hit rate is too outrageous!

   Absolutely forced to open things!

   Throwing the hat in the cabin, Mosquito jumped out with both hands and checked his car. Looking at those cracked eyes and cracks, I felt a heartache.

  Since the wings and fuselage of the aircraft are made of wood, the defense power is about zero. Basically, it will be a hole when it touches a bullet.

  One of the bullets even grazed the circuit wire, and almost smoked the battery on his left.

  However, thanks to the wooden wings.

  Due to the excessive kinetic energy of the opponent's bullet, which caused the power to pass through, it did not cause serious structural damage to the wing.

  The mosquitoes hovered in the sky for a while, and it was not until the return flight that the cabin was leaking and the wings were cracked, but at that time it was only a few kilometers away from the runway.

   Panic is panic, but the problem is not big!

  Four disciples surrounded him.

   Duo Ming glanced at the gun holes on the plane and said in surprise.

   "Fuck? You used this broken plane to fight people and dogs?"

   "I got shot a few times while fishing for French fries, so it's not a big problem... Can this plane still be repaired?" Mosquito stroking the wing said distressedly.

  Gu Jia stepped forward, stared at the wing, and shook his head.

   "It can't be repaired, the fuselage and wings... redo it."

  Zhouhun patted Brother Mosquito on the shoulder and comforted him.

   "It's okay, it doesn't cost a lot of money to make it out of wood anyway, the batteries, motors and machine guns are still there... people are still there."

   "That's what it says..."

   But it would be nice if I could not take these shots.

  Deducting the money for replacing the wings, the rounding of this mission is equivalent to no profit. The only consolation is contribution points and flying skill proficiency.

   Mosquito let out a long sigh, still grieving over the lost silver coins.

   "Uncomfortable!"

  …

  Eastern suburb of Qingquan City.

  Led by Lu Bei, 20 aboriginal soldiers wearing light cavalry exoskeletons and belonging to the Guards Regiment are rushing to the area where the red smoke is rising to support.

  As the elite of the New Alliance Standing Corps, those standing here are all veterans who have participated in two battles and survived.

  After being transformed by inducing the expression of serum, their physical qualities are far superior to ordinary people in all aspects.

  However, unlike the "specificity" enhancement of clones, the panel data of natural persons after awakening tends to be the average of more than three attributes.

   Only a few experimenters with excellent innate aptitude or exceptional luck can excel in a certain attribute.

  This type of person will generally occupy a special position in the team.

  For example, agility-type awakened people usually take positions such as team shooters because of their excellent eyesight and reaction speed, strength-type awakened people are more responsible for ammunition carrying and fire support positions, and physique-type awakened people stand relatively in front, etc.

   These are the experiences summed up by players in countless deaths and "official website discussions".

  Leading the brothers close to the abandoned heavy-duty exoskeleton in the center of the flower bed, Lu Bei stepped forward to check the charred corpse next to it, and tapped the helmet with his index finger.

   "...Report, we found a damaged exoskeleton near the signal flare! The friendly forces have withdrawn from the target area, requesting instructions for the next step!"

  Chu Guang, who was sitting on the sofa in the reading room, listened to the report of the frontline soldiers, thought for a moment, and then ordered.

   "Recover the wreckage without leaving a single piece behind!"

  Lu Bei: "Yes!"

  Hearing the sonorous and forceful answer, Chu Guang ended the communication, looked at the snow-white tablet beside him, and raised his eyebrows with an expression of interest.

   "Anti-drone?"

   Something ah these people.

  About a few minutes ago, he transferred the hummingbird drone deployed near Shelter 401 to the front line, trying to track down the unknown armed forces fleeing towards the ruins.

  However, when these people withdrew from the battlefield, they immediately found the drone following them.

  One of them took out a long gun with a square head and a square brain, probably an anti-drone electromagnetic gun, and pointed it at his hummingbird.

   Then, the connection between the drone and the control terminal was disconnected.

   But disconnection is disconnection. After all, the hummingbird drone is a pre-war product, and its anti-intrusion capability is not weak. After the signal is hijacked, the protection mechanism is triggered immediately, and the control unit actively cuts off the communication function, enters a state of radio silence, and the camera identifies the path and returns along the original path.

  The only pity is to lose that group of people.

  Chu Guang can only judge from the direction of their escape, they are heading north.

   “They are the men of the torch.”

   Lightly tapped his index finger on the table, Chu Guang spoke after thinking for a moment.

   "Xiao Qi, is there a way to hack their exoskeletons?"

  Xiao Qi was silent for a while, then whispered.

   "Master, the chip used in their exoskeleton is most likely a copy of the pre-war chip. It would be fine if the operating system was written by themselves..."

   "But it would be very difficult to directly apply the pre-war operating system."

   Chu Guang nodded thoughtfully.

   "That's it."

   Although unexpected, it is not incomprehensible.

  Spears and shields do not exist in isolation. Since there are means of invasion, there must be armor that can defend against invasion.

  In the early days of the Renlian era, even before entering the era of prosperity, machine learning technology has been quite popular. Compared with writing every code by hand, people are more inclined to build an AI algorithm, let this algorithm learn like humans, and automatically adapt to various application scenarios.

   Equivalent to automation in the field of programming.

With the birth of quantum computers, traditional encryption methods are almost useless, and human computing power has evolved from two isolated "points" of 0 and 1 to an infinitely extending "line", and the corresponding encryption measures will naturally born out.

  In the era of prosperity, even the most basic anti-intrusion plug-ins have flexible identification and judgment capabilities.

They are like the human immune system, capable of recognizing unknown viruses and forming targeted antibodies, ensuring that express delivery can be delivered to customers accurately under any circumstances, and also ensuring that missiles can accurately hit the enemy's head .

   Although Xiaoqi is close to "complete artificial intelligence" AI, it is general-purpose after all.

   Its characteristic is that it can do everything, but it does not mean that it can do everything to the best.

  Edit user-friendly applications, flexibly meet the various needs of users, and even provide spiritual support and encouragement, all of which it can do. But when it comes to a certain field, its capabilities are no more prominent than AI specialized in that field.

  If the full level is 5 and the average is 3, then its intrusion ability is about 1~2, maybe it can reach 3 with the addition of computing power.

   Although Xiao Qi is not a professional hacker, the shelter still doesn't have to worry about electronic warfare intrusion.

  The defense plug-in installed on the refuge server cooperates with the computing power of the server itself, and the anti-intrusion capability can reach MAX, which is equivalent to the ceiling in the current era.

   Therefore, even if the offensive ability is not strong, no one can hack the security system of the shelter through hacking methods.

  As for the anti-invasion and invasion capabilities of the earth countries in the parallel world?

   Optimistically, it should be around 0.1. Rounding it up is equivalent to nothing. After all, it is not a thing of the same era at all. It is meaningless to discuss the combat effectiveness of cavalry and tanks.

However, at least 3.5 billion of the 7.5 billion people rely on information technology for 90% or more, and the market value of information-related industries exceeds tens of trillions, which indirectly affects several fields such as transportation, logistics, finance, industry, and agriculture. Even life becomes a problem for personnel without the Internet.

   It is precisely because of this that dimensionality reduction strikes in the information field can form an "effective deterrent."

  If we go back to World War I or even the age of great voyages farther back, the deterrent effect of electronic warfare is quite limited, and even if you make a broadcast to recruit ghosts in the past, no one may be able to hear it.

  As for why its own manager system can take over other shelters that are "also full of anti-invasion capabilities"?

  Chu Guang is more inclined to think that it is the back door left at the beginning of the design, rather than Xiaoqi's illegal intrusion.

for example…

There is such a line of hidden code in the program of the People's Union Refuge: "Once the manager dies or voluntarily relinquishes his duties, the managers of other refuges will automatically obtain the management authority of this refuge after certain conditions are met. "

  The picture of the drone reappeared on the screen, and the hummingbird drone that returned to the assembly point was back under the control of the terminal.

  Xiao Qi: "Master, do you want to continue to follow?"

  Chu Guang shook his head.

   "Everyone has gone far, and it doesn't make much sense to keep up."

  Xiao Qi: "Woo..."

  Hearing the pitiful voice of self-blame, Chu Guang smiled and said.

   "It's okay, it's not your fault, it's enough to test out the truth of the other party."

   Besides, he can probably guess where the other party is going.

   Go north.

   It’s nothing more than looking for people from the Bone Chewing Tribe. It’s impossible to contact the Great Rift Valley, which is impossible to reach.

   From the trucks of those looters, Chu Guang seized a lot of nerve connection equipment of the Church of the Torch, which is enough to prove that the Bonechewer Tribe is supported by the Church of the Torch.

  These rats can't get away!

  Chu Guang picked up the tablet on the table, stuffed it into his pocket, and got up from the sofa.

   "Call Yin Fang for me and ask him to wait for me at the elevator door."

  Xiao Qi: "Good master, are you going to go out?"

   "Well," Chu Guang nodded as he walked to the mirror and straightened his collar, "I'm planning to go to shelter 401."

  …

  East District of Qingquan City.

  A five-meter-long deathclaw with a collar hanging around its neck was running rapidly across the ruins with a man and an iron bump on its back.

   "Why don't we take the car?"

   "Tires can't pass through ruins, this is the fastest means of transportation."

   "I'd rather go slower, didn't we walk slowly last time?"

   "Okay, stop talking nonsense, my time is precious."

  Nicole under the two of them let out a grunt of dissatisfaction, but the deterrence that penetrated into the bone marrow made it dare not do anything wrong, so it could only vent its emotions on the concrete stones under its feet.

   Sitting on Deathclaw's back, Chu Guang felt like a dragon knight in heavy armor.

Pity.

   This stupid lizard has no wings.

  How about giving it a mechanical prosthesis when I get a chance?

   Just when Chu Guang allowed his thoughts to diverge, the two had already arrived near the third ecological park. The natural deterrent power of Death Claw scared the surrounding monkeys away.

   Along the way, no alien species dared to approach.

   As for the nibblers, daytime is not their active time.

  At the guard post near the ticket gate of the Third Ecological Park, two soldiers with rifles on their backs on duty cast awe-inspiring eyes at Chu Guang, and made a military salute with their right fists on their chests.

   As expected of a manager!

   There is probably no other person in this wasteland who can use Death Claw as a mount!

   "Dear Master Manager!"

  Carrying a coffin-like box and wearing a war-damaged exoskeleton, Lao Bai stepped forward and said respectfully, "We have brought the fuel rods you asked for!"

   "Good job, put it here."

   Chu Guang nodded approvingly, jumped off Death Claw's back, and gave Yin Fang who was sitting in front of him a hand.

  Both feet finally touched the ground, and Yin Fang, who was about to fall apart, couldn't stand firmly and almost fell.

  Nicole let out a loud snort, which seemed to be mocking, but after being taught a lesson by Chu Guang, the lizard quickly calmed down, and put its head on the ground aggrieved.

  Old Bai looked at this guy in surprise.

   Is this the Deathclaw that nearly killed them all?

  It became the manager's mount.

   "Your task has been completed, and on behalf of the alliance, I thank you for your contribution!"

   "Go back and take a good rest!"

   With a swipe of his index finger in the air, Chu Guang settled the task for the members of the cattle and horse team for Yin Fang.

  Looking at the beating numbers on the VM settlement interface, the five players had expressions of surprise on their faces.

   In the last link of the task chain, in addition to the basic income of 1300 silver coins per capita and 500+ contributions, there are also branch rewards of 1200 silver coins and 200 contributions.

   It's so cool!

   Seeing the players excited, Chu Guang couldn't help showing a smile on his face.

   Tens of thousands of silver coins can buy a fuel rod.

  His little players are so easy to use!

  It would be even better if they were willing to sell the silver coins they got cheaply to professional players in life to invest in production and expand exports.

   Or go out and buy some good things and come back.

certainly.

   How to play this game is their own business.

   Right now, what Chu Guang has to do is to reclaim the soil for the fresh leeks, so that more players have the opportunity to come here to work for him.

  Chu Guang opened the box and took a look, closed the box and carried it in his hand, then looked at Yin Fang who had just got off Nicole's back.

   "I'll leave it to you later."

   After bumping all the way, Yin Fang's calf was still shaking, and he said with a sad face.

   "No problem... Wait for me to take it easy, I'm going to fall apart this bumpy road."

  Nicole snorted mockingly, almost writing the word "weak" on her face.

  But soon, it received another lesson from Chu Guang on the back of its head, and grumbled aggrievedly and crawled on the ground, completely honest.

   "It will be convenient when the underground passage is opened later."

  Chu Guang casually replied to Yin Fang, then took out half a hairless hyena from the package behind the armor, threw it to Nicole as a snack, and continued to use the neural connection device to issue orders, telling it to wait for his return at the same place.

   After finishing these, Chu Guang took Yin Fang and the fuel rods and walked towards the subway station.

  Nicole joyfully gnawed at the half hyena on the ground, making cheerful creaking and chewing sounds. Two NPC soldiers next to it looked at it nervously, and unconsciously grasped the rifle in their hands.

  The swaying iron chain always gave them a sense of insecurity, as if the animal could break free and pounce on them in a second.

  However, this death claw seemed to have no such intention at all. After gnawing on the bones, it curled its tail in a circle and took a nap at the door.

   This guy has been completely tamed.

  Watching the manager away, Ye Shi glanced at the balance on the VM again, and couldn't help swallowing.

   "If this is changed to RMB..."

  Even if the price drops a bit.

   It cost tens of thousands!

   "Can you be a little promising?" Fang Chang patted him on the shoulder with a smile, "Let's exchange some special products and get them to Boulder City to exchange chips. Isn't it good to upgrade a wave of equipment?"

  There have always been professional players in the forum collecting silver coins.

  Setting up a caravan to expand production requires money, either earned from NPCs, or purchased from professional combat players.

  Before Fang Chang took a lot of money when he was falling.

   After this task is completed, he plans to purchase some goods with his good brothers and ship them to Boulder City, and use the chips he earned to buy some equipment.

  At present, the trade route has just resumed, and at this time, everything can be sold to make money.

   After a period of time, the trade routes have been developed and matured, the information gap has become smaller and smaller, and the profits will hardly be as large as they are now.

  The economic system of this game is affected by the relationship between supply and demand, a real batch.

  Ye Shi scratched the back of his head in embarrassment, and smiled.

   "I just subconsciously calculated... By the way, when are we going to Boulder City?"

   "Tomorrow, all the tasks that can be done are basically done." Checking his VM, Lao Bai suddenly found that there was a small red dot on the icon of the Corps system.

  Clicked curiously, and after opening it, Lao Bai was surprised to find that the original LV0 level logo had changed to LV1.

   Not only that, but also an additional property panel.

  【ID: Burning Corps】

  【Corps level: LV2 (+1 points can be allocated)】

  【

  Scale: 2 (+10 recruitment cap per level)

   Logistics: 2 (+10 logistics points per level)

  ]

  【Doctrine: (not selected)】

  Before, the page of the corps system seemed to be just a list and level, but now there is even a property panel.

   Is this a soft update?

  Old Bai looked at it for a long time and didn't understand what these attributes meant, so he scratched the back of his head and said.

   "Our corps seems to have been upgraded."

  Hearing this sentence, Quit Smoking immediately moved over excitedly.

   "The Corps has been upgraded?! Let me see!"

   "Well, the number of recruits in the LV2 corps has increased to 20, and one assignable point has been obtained... But I haven't figured out what this attribute panel means."

  The scale is easy to understand. It refers to the estimated upper limit of recruitment. Logistics probably means the budget? But he didn't quite understand the logistics points.

   In the past, ammunition expenditures were budgeted in silver coins.

   Will the logistics of the Corps system be separated from the economic system in the future?

   There is also the optional doctrine, which seems to consume points to upgrade.

  Old Bai opened it and took a quick look. It was basically divided into several major categories, including the theory of light infantry, the theory of mobile warfare, the theory of firepower superiority, and so on.

  In addition to this, there are also some small subdivisions, which mainly provide some strategic BUFF bonuses.

  For example, if you point out the human sea assault under the light infantry theory, the recruitment limit +100%.

   After clicking this branch, the recruitment limit equivalent to each [scale point] increase directly changes from 10 to 20, and directly becomes a centurion at LV5!

   Of course, the premise is that so many players can be recruited.

   Staring at the corps-level smoking cessation, he suddenly remembered something, and said.

   "Wait, isn't what we're doing a scientific expedition mission?"

  Fang Chang knew what he wanted to ask, nodded and said.

   "In the team task, more than 4 members of the team are members of the same corps. After completing the task, a certain proportion of corps merits can be obtained according to the contribution points."

   Meritorious points are the experience needed to upgrade the corps.

   Quit smoking for a moment.

   "Fuck! Then there will be more people in the future, wouldn't it be possible to gain experience?!"

   After upgrading the skill points, throw all the [scale], a regiment with hundreds of people, and a group of four to do tasks, the merits of the regiment will not be soaring!

  Fang Chang said with a delicate expression.

   "The theory is that, after all, quantity is also a kind of power, but there are differences in the benefits between tasks. The task rewards of the T0 echelon and the T3 echelon may even be an order of magnitude different, and the overall efficiency may not be high."

   After a pause, Fang Chang continued to look at Lao Bai who was thinking about how to add points.

   "Let's not rush to add some, wait for the update announcement to come out, and I'll do some research."

   After closing the interface, Lao Bai said with a smile.

"I think so too!"

  …

   At the same time, in the north of Qingquan City.

  Dimit, who was gradually leaving the boundaries of the new alliance, breathed a sigh of relief, and continued northward with the remaining seven subordinates.

  The Snake Clan is at war with Honghe Town, and the only one who can help them take back the black box is the Ya Clan stationed in Xizhou City.

   I don't know what happened. After the group of looters stationed in Xizhou City, they stopped going south.

   At this moment, a group of figures suddenly appeared in the north, and they happened to have a face-to-face meeting with them.

  Dimit involuntarily clenched the gun in his hand, but after seeing the tattered attire of those people, he quickly breathed a sigh of relief.

   Just a group of refugees.

   "Should we kill them? They saw us."

  Ulen had already opened the safety lock, and squeezed out these words from between his teeth.

"There's no need for extravagance, just see it when you see it, we're all here," Dimiter glanced at him, and said comfortingly, "I know Ted's death makes you feel bad, but killing these people can't make you die resurrected."

   "We have to save ammo, they're not worth it."

   Sparing the group of refugees, Dimiter squinted his eyes as he looked at their direction.

   Wait.

   He'll be back!

   Calvin was late yesterday, a bit late...
