46 Recruit "Mining Queen"
After leaving the dangerous area near the military base, Lin Chi did not immediately go back to the workshop, but first bandaged the wound on his chest, and then drove in the direction of a certain store. Pen "Fun" Pavilion www.biquge.info
At this time, the second safe house he purchased had been successfully transformed into a barracks, and as for why Lin Chi knew, it was precisely because he saw that a new skill appeared in his skill column:
War Horn:
Action skill with a 12-hour cooldown.
After use, increase your Strength, Agility, and Endurance stats by 5 points for 30 minutes.
"Men, you should men............ The right thing to do! - Tykes. Finlay.
"Isn't there something wrong with this sentence?" Lin Chi complained.
Although there are quite a few criticisms about the "celebrity quotes" behind the introduction of the skill in the game, after reading the introduction of this skill, Lin Chi finally understands why the construction of barracks has become the current mainstream:
The three stats increase by five points in half an hour, which is indeed a great choice for those who charge the front line.
His current strength is 15 points, and when he puts on the armor of the Dreadnought, he can only move at a slow speed, but if he turns on the "War Horn", he can wear that heavy armor to kill in half an hour!
Soon, he was back on the street where the "Queen of Mines" was.
Lin Chi parked the car on the side of the road, got out of the car and walked to the door of the mining queen's shop. Before he had taken two steps, he saw a redhead dragging a suitcase and walking out of the store in a panic, so he immediately strode over and blocked the woman.
"You...... Are you the one sent by that monster? Stay back! ”
The woman with long burgundy hair took out a small and delicate silver pistol from her pocket, held the handle of the gun with trembling hands, and pointed the muzzle of the gun at Lin Chi's face: "If you come back, I'll shoot!" ”
"Don't be nervous, I wasn't sent by that guy." Lin Chi immediately understood who the other party meant by "monster", and then added: "Your gun is not loaded." ”
"Huh?" The redhead's gaze fell on the pistol.
While she was distracted, Lin Chi rushed up like lightning and grabbed her wrist and took the pistol that was actually loaded with a magazine.
"Help!" The red-haired woman cried out in pain.
"If you want to live, you'd better come with me." Lin Chi lowered his voice and said to the woman, "I know that bandaged weirdo wants to kill you. ”
At this time, the mark of a silver skeleton had already appeared on the right side of the red-haired woman's body, along with her name and identity:
"Queen of Mines" Medea, a special NPC, cannot be recruited.
Seeing the real mining queen for the first time, Lin Chi finally understood who the woman on the sign of this store was - the redhead girl with a hot figure on the billboard turned out to be the owner himself!
If he was not mistaken, this woman must have been providing equipment to the mining enterprises in the City of Chaos, and according to the information provided by Gleick, her shop was the leader of the industry, worthy of the name "Queen of Mining".
As the queen of mining, Medea was naturally very shrewd, and after hearing Lin Chi's words, she immediately raised her head and stared at him: "You are the competitor of that monster?" ”
"So to speak." Lin Chi smiled.
The purpose of his visit this time was to recruit the high-level engineers who might exist in the shop, but he met a non-recruitable character like Media.
This time, though, things don't seem to be quite the same.
――Maybe you can try to ignore the rules of the game and forcibly recruit this NPC?
Thinking of this, Lin Chi said to Medea: "If you want to live, come with me." Then he turned and walked to his sports car.
Looking at the back of the man in black, Medea took out a short dagger from her pocket, frowned and thought for a moment, then put the knife back in her pocket and followed quickly.
As soon as Lin Chi walked to the car, he saw that Medea had already followed, so he nodded and smiled approvingly: "Wise choice." ”
"I don't have any other way to choose, I'm afraid that monster will come after me soon......" The woman with the name of the Queen of Mining held her forehead a little weakly: "After all, what I sold him is a fake." ”
"Oh?" Lin Chi raised his eyebrows.
In a normal game, it is impossible for the player to buy counterfeit products from the Merchant NPC. But Medea obviously broke this rule, and let Lin Chi once again confirm his previous judgment:
The NPCs in this game do seem to be conscious.
But unlike real humans, the consciousness of these NPCs should be limited by the rules of the game or something.
Thinking of this, Lin Chi continued to ask, "Why are you selling fakes to him?" This will smash the sign of the 'Queen of Mining', right? ”
Hearing this, Medea blinked, and showed a depressed expression on her face, which was wearing heavy makeup and glamorous makeup, revealing a strange "pure" feeling: "I know this will smash the signboard, but I don't want to watch the city turn to ashes in the explosion of nuclear weapons......"
"How do you know he's making a nuclear bomb?" Lin Chi asked curiously.
"The first time the monster came over to ask me about the extraction of uranium, the second time he sent a group of militants to buy equipment. Obviously, it is to refine the 'yellow cake'. Do you think I can't see it? Medea shook her head.
"What is a yellowcake?" Lin Chi asked.
"It's uranium enrichment...... You don't even know that? There was a hint of disdain in Media's voice.
"I don't think ordinary people should deliberately understand this knowledge." Lin Chi smiled.
"Anyway, that monster is planning to refine a lot of nuclear fuel, and there is no nuclear power plant in this island city, so I can only think that he wants to make nuclear weapons......"
Speaking of this, Medea suddenly looked at Lin Chi and said seriously, "Can you stop him?" ”
"I've blown up his base, you should have heard the explosion just now." Lin Chi nodded.
The military base occupied by Frankenstein is not far from this street, and the loud sound of helicopters exploding on the street must have also reached the ears of the "mining queen".
"I know, you're a danger too." Medea sighed a little depressedly: "But I can't do anything else now, that monster may come to trouble me, if he finds that the machine doesn't work, I'm afraid I'm going to be finished......"
"Ha, in that case, do you want to join my camp?" Lin Chi finally said the point.
In order to keep the woman in fear, he didn't tell Medea that the beneficiation had actually been blown up.
Although in her character introduction, the words "not recruitable" are clearly written. But with the experience of fighting side by side with Greck, Lin Chi knew that even if it was an unrecruitable NPC in this game, he would have a chance to win over to his command!
So now, he is also decisively starting to try for the first time.
Hearing Lin Chi's words, Medea lowered her head as if she was a little embarrassed: "I...... Can't ......"
"Can't you? Then I'll go first. Lin Chi said and opened the car door.
"Ah, wait a minute!" Medea hurriedly stopped him: "Yes! I can join you, but ......"
"Are there any conditions?" Lin Chi narrowed his eyes.
"Can you keep me safe?" Medea asked.
"Absolutely."
"Can you give me enough personal space?"
"I have two houses."
"Can I get a dog?"
"No problem."
"If I help you, can I get paid?"
"I'm rich."
"Okay then." Speaking of which, Medea finally stopped asking questions: "Although I don't know if you're lying to me......"
She said she put her suitcase in the trunk of the sports car while she sat in the passenger seat and fastened her seatbelt.
Lin Chi noticed that at the same time as the woman got into the car, the words "not recruitable" behind her name disappeared without warning as if they had been erased.
