The Galaxy Exchange is a gigantic city from the outside, an aesthetically unappointing square pile of steel made of dark metal. Countless transport floats travel between the system's spaceports and trading centers, showing the prosperity of the area.

The first floor of the trading center is a special information inquiry hall for ground traffic. Lynch and Grant were so shy, they had to ditch the expensive float cars in favor of inexpensive ground taxis. It is said to be a hall, but it is bigger than a county seat in Lynch's previous life. It was bustling with many people, merchants, hawkers, swindlers, thieves, speculators, adventurers......

When Lynch saw Grant looking like a countryman entering the city, he looked around and exclaimed, and he said strangely, "You haven't been here?" ”

Grant was a little embarrassed, scratched his head, and said, "Today is the first time I've come with you." ”

Lynch smiled and said no more, wondering if he hadn't been here before. They randomly found a block of information query screens and began to look for various equipment transaction information.

After checking it all the way, Grant's face was already very ugly, "Ah, the cheapest 125MM projectile turret here costs 6,000 ISK, although the simulator is missing a high slot, but our money is not enough for three turrets." ”

This is indeed a problem.

Lynch called up the Lumberjack-class frigate from memory, and then flipped through the screen to find the Lumberjack, and the appearance and data of the two completely overlapped.

The Lumberjack-class frigate is the most common and inexpensive armed frigate produced by Mimatar, with four weapon slots, four medium slots, and two low slots. According to Grant, the simulator has half the shield and armor compared to the average lumberjack, and one each for the high and low slots.

Although this result reduces the cost of assembly, it is too brittle to resist beating at all, and the space for play is quite narrow. Moreover, due to the CPU output power of the ship itself, the four turrets can only be equipped with three guns, and the other slot must be equipped with non-firepower weapons, such as sweepers or probe launchers.

He thought about it for a while, clicked to search for the simulator, fortunately there was one on the market, and the data of the Lumberjack simulator appeared on the screen.

Statistically, it's exactly as Grant said, but the CPU output and energy grid output are enough to support three turrets. That Oak must have loaded three cannons, he thought.

THEN HE CLICKED OUT THE 125MM PROJECTILE TURRET AND THOUGHT TO HIMSELF.

THE MISALIGNMENT DISTANCE OF THE 125MM PROJECTILE TURRET IS 4500M, AND THE OPTIMAL RANGE IS 800M.

Based on Lynch's experience in his previous life, the best way to fight the Timberjack class is to wrap up the opponent's 500M high-speed surround, abandon the shield repair system, directly apply the afterburner to the middle slot, stagnate winding net (thruster jamming system, which reduces the propulsion speed of enemy ships), shield expansion devices, and anti-bounce equipment (jump scrambling and jump scrambling). Or because the propulsion speed of this kind of small frigate is quite fast, then you can also give up the net, add an extra shield expansion, and directly fight with the opponent for speed, as long as the speed of the opponent's battery is not enough, it can only be beaten in the face. What the low gauge didn't say, the last one that strengthened the strength of the thruster improvement equipment and the equipment that increased the resistance of the shield armor.

When the ships of the same assembly meet in pairs, in the game of Lynch's previous life, it is the various bonuses of skill points to the ship, and there is also a coquettish position. Keep the opposing ship in the best range of your own turret, while your own side tries to avoid the best range of the opponent.

This statement seems nonsensical, after all, if the ships are equipped with the same equipment, the optimal range of the two ships is roughly the same. But in reality this is not the case, because there is a gap in the firing of the battery. Although the gap is as short as a few seconds or tens of seconds, and it is not always possible to catch this gap in many cases, if you have this awareness, the gap will slowly manifest itself in hundreds and thousands of rounds of firepower exchanges. The end result is that you are one shot away from killing me, but unfortunately, you are only one shot, and you have been killed by me.

Mimatar's ships don't play the best range, they play the misalignment distance.

Lynch thought for a long time, gradually got a plan, and said to Grant: "Click on the civilian equipment to take a look." ”

"What! Civilian equipment? This is a lot worse than the performance of the most ordinary standard equipment! Isn't this looking for death? Grant looked incredulous.

Lynch glanced at him, clicked on the civilian equipment and looked at it. It's funny to say, in the previous life, when it came to the system of the army, there were basically few people who had seen it, but in this parallel world, it was the lowest-end road goods.

This bet has its peculiarities, and it is destined that both sides will not run away, so there is no point. Therefore, the jump scrambler system is completely useless, and the scrambler is not very meaningful, and its effect can only make the opponent unable to use the micro jump engine. Needless to say, the Tiny Timberjack's battery level probably won't last three activation cycles of the Micro Jump Engine.

Thinking of this, Lynch already had a plan, and he said, "Don't we have no money?" I'LL HELP YOU SAVE MONEY, THIS IS, A 250MM LIGHT HOWITZER, TWO SMALL ENERGY NEUTRALIZERS (EQUIPMENT THAT HARMS OTHERS AND IS NOT BENEFICIAL TO YOURSELF, YOU CONSUME 100 POWER TO NEUTRALIZE THE OTHER PARTY'S 100 POWER), TWO INJECTION BATTERIES, TWO SHIELD EXPANSION, LOW SLOT, FORGET IT, COME TO AN INERTIAL STABILIZER! Hehe, it's all civilian! ”

Grant was stunned, and Lynch laughed and left.

Three days before the showdown, two Lumberjack-class frigates were in place, quietly parked in the Academy's exclusive spaceport.

Two days before the showdown, all the equipment was in place, and the spaceport staff who received a lot of commissions nervously deployed the equipment overnight. At the same time, a ridiculous news came out of these staff members, and soon spread throughout the academy.

"What? That kid's equipment is all civilian equipment? Wha! Go raise, 5 minutes! 5 minutes to burst the boat and raise two hundred, no, three hundred ISK! ”

"Damn, what the hell is this kid? It's not like that's how to throw in the towel, is it? Damn, the old men still think that although he will lose, he fights for all the poor students, damn, it turns out to be a fool! ”

......

Meanwhile, in a luxurious room, the tall and handsome Oak was frowning and listening to his subordinates' reports.

"You mean...... He uses civilian equipment? Oak looked incredulous.

"Absolutely, yes! Master Oak, look at this situation, should we replace the ship with a simulator? Lest others say that we use standard loggers to bully people? A long-haired subordinate with a lewd appearance said.

Oak hesitated.

Another subordinate spoke to dissuade, "No, Young Master Oak, don't be afraid of ten thousand, just in case!" Anyway, others won't know the details of the duel, and after winning, we will naturally control public opinion! The blockade only said that it was a lumberjack, but it didn't say that it was a simulator! Although this is a conventional rule, it is not absolute, our spaceship is not applied to the academy, but bought by ourselves! ”

After pondering for a long time, Oak's face showed a hint of gloom, and he said fiercely: "It's so decided, don't change!" Grab a woman with me, huh! I'll show you the price of being in the limelight! ”

At this time, Lynch and Grant were taking a leisurely walk in the college's botanical garden. Lynch was laid back, but Grant was sweating all the way. As long as they saw them, they all made all kinds of mocking sounds, which meant as if they were looking at two deformed idiots.

"I heard that each person can bring three assistant conductors, I have no friends, will you come with me on the boat?" Lynch asked.

"Ah...... I...... I...... I'm seasick ......," Grant stammered, feeling his legs go a little limp.

Lynch scolded in his heart, his mother's adaptive gravity system was dizzy, seasick and still studying at the military academy?

But he didn't show it, but patted Grant understandingly, "If you don't go, don't go, or I'll be distracted to take care of you." In fact, he understands that Grant can contribute all his savings, which is already a friend of life and death, but this person is really timid, that is an instinct, and he can't really blame him.

As he walked, Grant suddenly froze, and Lynch had to stop and look back at him.

"What are you thinking? You're worried about having a P right now. ”

"It's not...... It's not ......" Grant suddenly stretched out his hand, pointed into the distance, and whispered, "Kadia, she...... It seems to be coming towards us. ”

Lynch followed Grant's finger. This look, he was also stunned.

Before, he didn't think of this Kadia at all, and he didn't think about her, but now, when the real person came over, he couldn't hold it anymore.

Kadia has waterfall-like blonde hair, big eyes that reveal a sense of indifference and depth, and a pair of plump but not thick sexy red lips under the straight bridge of the nose. With a figure as tall as Lynch and a pair of black leather boots, it is not too much to describe it as sassy and heroic. In addition, her breasts that were about to tear the leather coat and her full round buttocks ...... Lynch swallowed unconsciously.

Kadia approached and said coldly, "Lynch, I want to talk to you. ”

"Ah, let's talk...... Why don't we go on a date somewhere else? "Lynch is caught up in the YY he has created.

Grant shuddered and quietly backed away.

Kadia's face was instantly covered with a layer of frost, her eyes showed disdain, and she snorted coldly, "Don't squander the only good feeling I have for you. Lynch, I tell you, this behavior of yours is very shameful! ”

"Ahh ”

"You......" Kadia was visibly angry, forcibly suppressing her emotions, "I'm talking about equipment!" I don't care if you live or die, but I hate your attitude of begging for mercy very much! ”

"I ...... Beg? Hey, this beauty, what are you talking about? What equipment what begs for mercy? Lynch was completely awake at this point.

"Isn't it? Using civilian equipment to make a gambling contract, this is not begging for mercy, what is it, and there is a good excuse for losing, isn't it? ”

"Damn, young master, what's wrong with me using civilian equipment? Are you so sure I'm begging for mercy? Lynch also began to feel uncomfortable.

"Hmph, don't pretend with me, I'm going to get on the boat in two days!"

At this time, Lynch was puzzled and puzzled: "Wait...... You say I'm begging for mercy and I'm going to get on the boat again? Get on my boat? What does it mean? I didn't figure it out, young master. ”

Kadia said with a blue face: "I don't care about your boring bets, but we are from the Military Academy, and the Mimatar people never know the word 'begging for mercy'!" So win or lose I'll get on board and show you what attitude is! Even if it is a desperate situation, you should fight to the end! ”

"Desperate?" Lynch was furious, "Hey, tell me, why are you?" What qualifications do you have to board my ship? It's up to you to ......" with a big chest and a round ass, and he finally couldn't help it.

Kadia froze for a moment, never realizing that Lynch would talk to her in such a tone, she stared into Lynch's eyes, and said word by word: "I have obtained the qualification to pilot the frigate!" Hmph, I have already reported to the teachers of the Combat Simulation Department, and they have approved it. Whether you agree or not, I'll get on board! As he spoke, he glared at the two of them fiercely, and turned away without any delay.

Lynch was still in a daze, and Grant was completely innocent, and that look was angry and funny.

Lynch shook his head and said as if to himself, "The former owner of my skin has a crush on an arrogant control freak? Hey, is it okay to change Lori, what about Mary Sue? ”
