Chapter 77: Rising Pace

Then Sun Yimin returned Liu Ronghua's principal, and also attached 10,000 yuan of interest. Liu Ronghuale couldn't close and chased after him, and looked at Sun Yimin's package with envy: "I've grown so big, I haven't seen so many gold coins, hehe!" ”

Sun Yimin looked proud. Compared to the huge prize money won, the return of this principal is only a drop in the bucket. Looking at the 1300w+ game gold coins in the package, Sun Yimin began to worry about how to spend it.

Liu Ronghua made a good suggestion: "First of all, if you want to do a good job, you must first sharpen your tools, you exchange the gold coins for some cash, and go to SEG DIY a set of high-end desktops." Then the rest of the gold coins will be used to build your own combat power. ”

Sun Yimin strongly agrees with this view. He understands that a good computer is important for playing good games. So, a whole million gold coins were hung in the Treasure Pavilion.

On Saturday the next day, all the gold coins hanging in the Treasure Pavilion were sold, and after deducting the transaction fee, Sun Yimin won 9,400 yuan. That's more than enough money to configure a great gaming-only desktop.

Just do it, Sun Yimin asked Liu Ronghua to drive him to Huaqiangbei Electronics Market.

In the SEG Building, Sun Yimin and Liu Ronghua relived a kind of life in college: for their science men, in addition to playing games, one of their biggest hobbies is to visit the electronics market.

For boys with girlfriends, weekends are naturally a time to make an appointment to fall in love, but for a group of single boys in Sun Yimin's bedroom, in addition to playing games, the program in their leisure time on weekends is to hang out in the nearby digital market.

It's a great pleasure to wander around the huge market for a wide variety of computer accessories and digital products, even if you don't buy them. After all, for poor college students, they couldn't afford expensive desktop computers.

In the dormitory, except for Liu Ronghua, a rich second generation, who spent a lot of money to buy a PC (personal computer) in the second half of his junior year, everyone else only had to watch the excitement and rub it off. Every time they visit the electronic market, they usually buy some pirated game CDs, and then happily take them to Liu Ronghua's computer in the bedroom to install and play.

Thinking back to reality from the old time, Sun Yimin looked at SEG's countless digital shops and dizzying computer and electronic products, and couldn't help but sigh with emotion: back then, he was only greedy, but now he can finally be willful.

He carried a bulging stack of renminbi in his pocket. Sun Yimin asked Liu Ronghua about the reasonable price of various accessories. In terms of price, Liu Ronghua is more knowledgeable than him, because he often changes computer hardware to improve the gaming experience.

"With a budget of tens of thousands of yuan, you can choose top brands for all kinds of accessories." Liu Ronghua suggested.

"Okay, listen to you." Sun Yimin nodded.

When choosing a processor, Liu Ronghua asked a technical question: "I

tel high-end CPUs are currently available in dual-core and quad-core options, and the price is about 2000. Which one do you think is better, I think you should know better about this? ”

"Quad-core, of course. The more cores, the better. Sun Yimin didn't think twice.

Liu Ronghua: "But the main frequency is lower than that of dual-core. ”

"That's also quad-core." Sun Dao.

"Why?" Liu Ronghua asked puzzled.

"The more cores, the more efficient the processor will be." Sun explains: "You have to know that the working principle of a multitasking operating system is that the processor constantly switches between multiple threads in a very short period of time. This switching process actually wastes a lot of computing resources of the processor. The higher the number of CPU cores, the fewer such switches and the less resource overhead is incurred. So the more efficient the processor is, the smoother the computer will be. ”

Liu Ronghua nodded understandingly. Sun Yimin seemed to remember something at this time, and said with a little sarcasm: "You should understand this, the last time I talked about the working principle of the multitasking operating system, it can even be compared to the pickle girl!" ”

Liu Ronghua sneered: "I'm nonsense that doesn't seek much understanding, how can I compare with you, a computer engineer, haha!" ”

After a pause, Liu Ronghua asked again: "But the dual-core CPU has a higher frequency, can't this make up for the defect of fewer cores?" ”

"You're wrong, there's no point in just chasing the CPU frequency, if the motherboard and memory can't keep up with the CPU frequency, it will become a bottleneck. Today's CPUs are clocked at frequencies that far exceed memory frequencies. Sun Yimin explained.

"So, the frequency of memory sticks should be as high as possible, right?" Liu Ronghua looked at Sun Yimin inquiringly and asked.

"Correct solution!" Sun Yimin nodded affirmatively, and said: "And the front-end bus frequency of the motherboard must match the frequency of the memory." ”

The two spent an afternoon strolling around SEG. In the end, it cost 10450 to DIY this ultra-high-end game-specific desktop computer. This was beyond Sun Yimin's budget, and he had to pay more than 800.

After the computer DIY was completed, he also bought several additional mice for other uses.

By the way, I bought the latest version of Wi

dowsXP pirated discs, as well as buying some pirated DVDs, planning to watch the film on his awesome computer at night. It is conceivable that for an IT dick man, it should be a very good enjoyment!

When I got home, I put the brand new computer on the desk in Sun Yimin's small room. His eyes lit up, and his heart was filled with joy.

From now on, I no longer have to play "Drunken Wind and Moon" on that broken laptop. There is no need to borrow Liu Ronghua's awesome computer.

However, since this is a desktop, it is not convenient to move around once it is placed in the room. So from then on, Sun Yimin basically played games in his room, and he could no longer operate side by side with Liu Ronghua at the living room table. However, this point seems to be more convenient for some of Sun Yimin's future operations.

Sun Yimin spent half an afternoon installing the new operating system and various application software. And downloaded and installed the latest game client software of Zuifengyue. I tested it in the game, and the smoothness of this high-end discrete graphics card and the smoothness of the picture brought by the big screen are really extraordinary. Even seems to be better than Liu Ronghua's so-called "magic machine".

Liu Ronghua said with envy in his eyes: "Your computer is too awesome, and the configuration is much higher than mine, no, I'm going to upgrade it another day!" ”

"Haha, if you didn't say earlier, just replace yours and eliminate the old one to me, and I will save today's money." Sun Yimin joked.

Liu Ronghua glanced at him, sighed again, patted Sun's shoulder and said, "Alas, you are still a great kid!" You guy, not only don't you spend a penny playing games, but you also make a lot of money. ”

Sun Yimin smiled proudly. asked Liu Ronghua again: "Then how much can I increase my combat power with these gold coins next?" ”

"If you spend it all, you can probably say more than 250,000." Liu Ronghua said.

"So what's going on first? Forged gear or gem-set? Sun asked.

"Of course, it's forging, and this increase in combat power has a fast effect. It's very expensive to get the gems to the back. Not to mention divine products, even if they are the best gems, it is a luxury to exchange them, and the effect of gems in improving combat power is not as high as forging. Most people do all the forging first. Get another gem. ”

"Well," Sun Yimin said just do it, and exchanged the gold coins for a huge amount of ingots in the ingots exchange, and bought a large number of body protection spars, divine weapon spars, and titanium crystals. Of course, some of the gold coins should still be kept in the package, because forging equipment also requires a large amount of gold coins as a handling fee.

As we all know, equipment forging can be said to be risk-free from +1 to +8. For example, even if +8 forging fails, it will still remain +7, but it will only lose gold and gold. But +9+10 is different. If the forging fails, the forging level is reset to zero.

And with the increase of the forging target level, not only the cost will increase, but the success rate will gradually decrease. The success rate of +8 is 30%, the success rate of +9 is 20%, and the success rate of +10 is 10%.

The cost of armor forging is relatively low, as the price of the Armor Spar is cheaper in the Mall than the price of the Divine Weapon Crystal. So he prioritized forging 6 pieces of armor all over his body.

After countless repeated failures and a large amount of gold coins, he finally forged all the equipment of the golden level 60 armor all over his body to level +10. As a result, he also gained the special effect of shining golden light all over his body.

Then he began to forge weapons. For an aggressive class, the Overlord's weapon is quite important, and if you can forge it to +10, you can not only greatly increase the lethality, but also get a cool visual effect - the weapon emits purple smoke. At the same time, a special skill will be added to the character.

However, he didn't have much luck forging weapons, and his original weapon forging level was +8. The first forging +9 was a direct failure. With a "poof", the weapon forging level is directly reduced to zero. I had no choice but to start from scratch.

Forging +8 from scratch is a process of labor and money, but after all, the money is spent and the effect is seen, and the weapon is back to +8 again. But bad luck struck again, +9 This time, Sun Yimin put 3 titanium crystals, and the success rate reached 35%. (20+15)%, but still a failure.

Two defeats in a row hit his confidence. But he thought: as long as he continues to throw money, he should be able to go up. After more than 10 more efforts, his weapon was finally forged to +9.

While the iron was hot, he continued to put 10 Divine Weapon Crystals and 3 Titanium Crystals. The success rate of 25% is the upper limit, and he clicked the OK button without hesitation, and with a "poof", the weapon returned to forging level 0. The bamboo basket is empty!

He was not reconciled and continued to throw money. But God seemed to be joking with him again, forging to +8 for the next 7 times, and failing again and again for +9.

There wasn't much money left in the bag. At present, there are only 5.22 million gold coins. He thought: If you can't get lucky today, let's stop it for the time being! It took another amount of money to smash the weapon back to +8 and stop the operation. The mood is slightly depressed.

In order to continue to improve his combat power, he chose to change the gem. You don't have to rely on luck.

He spent another sum of money to exchange a total of 15 gems set on his whole body and exchange them for 5 superb. He didn't change it all, because he didn't have enough money, and he had to keep the money to wait for the future forging weapons, which were the most important thing for a thug.

In the end, there were only nearly 4 million gold coins left in the package.

So far, Sun Yimin's combat power has reached 251396. This can be regarded as an entry-level god. Although the weapon forging failed, looking at the great god King Xiang in front of him, Sun Yimin's heart was still full of joy and excitement.

The frustration in my heart just now gradually faded. He thought about it: "It's not a big deal, I spent all the virtual currency in the game, and I didn't spend a penny of real money." Even if the millions of forging weapons are lost, I believe that this bad luck should be able to make up for it in the future. ”

Regarding the rest of the money, Sun Yimin doesn't want to spend it all at once for the time being. He had another plan in mind.

Then Sun Yimin entrusted Liu Ronghua with one thing, "Do you know where Zhang Xinyao and Lin Chunhong live?" Send me something for her. ”

"I don't know, you don't know, they didn't let me send them home last time, how could I know their address." Liu Ronghua said.

"What about the company address? You don't know either? Sun asked.

"I don't know. You also saw it that day, and asked them what company they worked for, and it was all mysterious. ”

"Ah, what then, I also said please help me send something to your sister." Sun Yimin was slightly disappointed.

"No problem, I can make an appointment with her and bring her something. What are you going to give her? ”

"A mouse."

"Didn't you give each of them a mouse key suit last time? How do you return it? Liu Ronghua asked puzzled.

"I bought two ordinary mice in SEG today, and I am going to disassemble and transform them, which is expected to achieve a special function that will help participate in the [Zai Tianshan] treasure grabbing activity."

"What function?"

"You can speed up the mouse buttons. When the time comes, I'll give you one, and you'll know. "Sun Dao.

"Damn, you still have the skills? Can you make something like this? Liu Ronghua's face showed curiosity and excitement.

"It's a small thing," Sun smiled, "isn't this the best way to gain her favor by following your teachings to help a girl do something that others can't do?" ”

Liu Ronghua raised his thumb: "The son can be taught!" ”

"You'll have to deliver it to me by next Friday. Because there is a treasure grab on Friday"

"Well, I will definitely help you deliver it, and I will live up to my mission." Liu Ronghua swore a promise.

Sun Yimin returned to his room and began the renovation work.
