13. Why bother Africans?
Early the next morning, Higra had a rare serious expression on his face, and he changed Johnston into a small white dress like his own, and stood at Antong's desk. Pen ~ fun ~ pavilion www.biquge.info
An Tong looked at the pair of ship girls in front of her, each with their own beauty and unique charm, like a mother and daughter, and like a sister, for a while she felt that her throat was a little dry, and she said with a little embarrassment: "Where did you find these clothes for her?" ”
"The underground warehouse of an abandoned children's clothing store outside." Higra replied, it seems that she has really searched the ruined city outside, and even this kind of basement can be turned out, An Tong really underestimated her leisure.
"That's not what I'm going to talk about today! Admiral! I'm seriously asking you to equip Littleston with a better outfit! We have a lot of resources right now, right? Higra said righteously, but her soft and glutinous voice sounded more coquettish.
"Uh... This question..."An Tong was a little speechless for a while, theoretically speaking, this is indeed the investment that should be made, whether it is the actual increase in combat power or in order not to arouse suspicion, Johnston does need some new ships.
Although the initial outfit of the B-class ship is the same as that of the D-class, it is a water gun and a corn cob, but once the Admiral confirms its level, he still has to arm it with iron, which is the main combat force after all.
"Yesterday I did receive some resources as a thank you, but Higra, you don't know that there is such a thing as developing equipment... It doesn't seem to fit the current situation of our town guard. An Tong explained with some embarrassment.
"If Littleston had the proper outfit yesterday, he wouldn't have been hurt!" Higra still argued with reason, and An Tong also had to admit that if Johnston could carry a qualified ship, the improvement in combat effectiveness would be extremely obvious.
"But the development of equipment requires additional contribution points, and we are very tight on hand now, you know..."An Tong hurriedly made an excellent excuse, but before he finished speaking, his personal terminal prompted him to receive 20 contribution points.
An Tong hurriedly opened his personal terminal with surprise, and the prompt on it was battle damage compensation? Obediently, this is incredible, this kind of thing is the same as the legendary college student loan, and it really sent it to him?
After receiving this kind of war damage subsidy that is only theoretical, and it is almost impossible to apply for it, An Tong instantly understood that this was Zhu Junji's credit, it seems that he should have reported that Johnston sacrificed himself in order to cover the cargo ship, and easily helped An Tong apply for this kind of subsidy.
"Although this guy looks young and wears glasses under beer bottles, and his breathing is not smooth and his body is weak, but this work is still quite reliable." An Tong looked at the contribution points that fell out of thin air, and he was still a little happy.
However, he didn't realize that Higra had unknowingly slipped up to him and saw the message.
"And said that there are no contribution points! Admiral, you great liar! ”
This was a terrible moment, Higra jumped up like a cat with its tail stepped on, and then pounced on An Tong and bit his arm.
"Huh? Hey, hey! Got something to say? Don't bite! ”
Johnston on the side saw this, his eyes flashed with a strange luster as if he had found some fun game, and he also hugged An Tong's arm from the other side, "Ahhhh I took a bite of it.
"Huh? Why are you here too? Don't follow her in everything! Feed! Don't lick it with your tongue! Are you a cat? ”
In the end, with two tooth marks on his arm, An Tong got on the overrail train to the Holy Mountain alone.
The reason why he was so reluctant was not that he was reluctant to have that little resource and contribution point, but that the admiral was really not suitable for developing equipment during the apprenticeship stage.
An Tong has read a lot of experience in the development of Admirals on the forum before, and the routes and methods are different, but there is a very unified consensus, that is, when your family is not rich enough, don't touch the giant pit of development equipment...
One author even added by quoting one of the victims' last testimonials:
Why is this so? The first time I had a high-level ship girl, the first time I had a rich resource, the two things overlapped, it should have been double happiness, why is this happening? ”
It can be seen that this victim has suffered from some kind of strange mental illness, which shows how terrifying it is to develop equipment...
Therefore, although An Tong has not actually tried, he is still full of fear of this vicious event, and he has 30 contribution points saved before, 20 contribution points for battle damage compensation, and a core that can be exchanged for 20 contribution points.
He first turned in the core and exchanged it for 20 contribution points just in case, although he needed 25 contribution points if he wanted to exchange this core back in the future, but it was more reliable to have more goods on hand in this kind of crisis.
Then he went to Ji Chao and transferred 20 contribution points to the other party as compensation for losing the yacht last time.
"Are you crazy? That kind of yacht is about the same as scrap metal in this era, and there are still two leftovers that can be exchanged for two at 20 o'clock. Ji Chao not only didn't thank him, but opened his mouth to spray him.
"Then can you help me find a faster and bigger one?" An Tong took the opportunity to hit the snake and put forward a request.
"You guy... Wait for news. Ji Chao replied angrily.
Then, the two chatted about the recent situation, Ji Chao's expression suddenly became very exciting after learning that he had really picked up a ship girl, and then after learning that he planned to develop equipment, his expression became even more exciting...
In short, after leaving Ji Chao's place, An Tong recalled his compassionate eyes like a mentally retarded look, and his heart was even more bottomless...
When An Tong walked to the area where the equipment was being developed, he suddenly understood why the development of equipment was such a dangerous thing.
It's like a post office on Earth, with windows one after another, and the staff in the windows stuff large and small boxes of things to the Admiral from time to time, and then replace them with the next person...
For a moment, Antong almost thought he was back on Earth, if it weren't for the various signs around the hall that were out of place.
"Recycling at a fair price."
"Unsecured borrowing, fast disbursement, no collateral."
"High-quality equipment is sold/recycled, and the quantity is preferred."
"Fortune telling, fortune prediction."
"What the hell is this place?" An Tong looked at the various admirals coming and going, some laughed, some cried, some cried and laughed, some held various religious instruments and kept praying, and some wore white hats and bearded people lying on the ground doing some kind of cult ritual.
There weren't many people in line, and soon there was only one person left in front of An Tong, and then he heard the man roar with anger:
"I put in 5,000 full resources, and then you gave me a bunch of what the hell?" The Admiral was visibly furious, and his voice was loud enough for everyone to hear, but it failed to attract attention outside of Antong.
"Forget about the rice cooker and leather shoes, what the hell is this TMD?" The Admiral pulled out a mosaic-covered stick from the box, and when he pressed the switch, it would hum and vibrate.
"What can make the ship's mother relax and enjoy, of course, you can use it yourself." The staff at the window didn't bother to raise their eyelids and said.
"And what the hell is this? It's still a broken one! The Admiral pulled out a penguin puppet from the chest, and the top of the puppet's head had been cut open, and the cotton inside was popping out.
"A new puppet from a well-known communication company, a popular style this year." The staff replied.
"Are you kidding me? Lao Tzu's 5000 resources were exchanged for this pile of garbage, you damn liar! Tax thief! I'm going to shove this stuff in your mouth! The Admiral had gone on a complete rampage, wielding the mosaic stick vigorously.
The staff still looked calm, yawned, and reached out to pat the bell on the desk, "Gendarme!" ”
"What do you black-skinned dogs want to do? Let go of me! I've done a lot for the organization, and you can't treat me like that! I want to see the general..."
The Admiral's voice disappeared through the doorway, and all was quiet again.
"Next... By the way, help me get this pile of garbage in the trash," the staff continued.
"Uh... Can I take these two? Antong stepped forward, picked out the tattered penguin and a hammerhead shark puppet from the box, and asked.
"If you like it, you can take this box, let's say, how much to bet?"
"1500 base resources." An Tong handed over the personal terminal, and he threw everything Zhu Junjie sent in.
"Comes with a 15-point contribution fee." The staff took out a device and scanned it on his terminal, and the 15-point contribution was gone.
"Please be patient for 3 minutes." The staff who have completed the process are back to their boring state.
"I want to ask..."An Tong seized the time to ask, "What is the yield rate?" ”
"About 10%." The staff replied, "If you want those powerful ships, it will be lower, you know, those wine bags and rice bags of the Academy of Sciences are nothing but cheat the grants..."
An Tong roughly understands why the development of equipment is so pitiful...
In fact, the ship's equipment is not an ordinary mechanical equipment, but it is directly shaped with net energy, but after the development of this technology, it is still in the experimental stage and put into use because of the urgency of the war situation, resulting in many problems, the yield is extremely low, and the garbage is everywhere.
And for more than ten years, the scientists in charge of tackling this project have only come to one conclusion: the development of equipment that has been separated from the core of the ship can only maintain this result, and if you want to obtain the ship equipment as stably as the ship girl was shaped, you must first crack the secret of the core of the ship, otherwise the development of equipment alone can only maintain the status quo.
This is tantamount to throwing the black cauldron to the personnel responsible for tackling the core of the ship, and as we all know, the core of the ship's mother is actually the purified deep fog core, and if you want to crack the mystery, you don't know how long it will take.
At the same time, for some reason, the development of equipment was not banned, but a large amount of scrap was provided to the Admiral as usual, which made one have to consider that this was a despicable means of recovering the Admiral's resources and contribution points.
So An Tong had to wait for the result with apprehension.
