17 Depart to explore the surrounding islands

Qin Xiaobai's tribe now has two bases - a camp in the heart of the island's jungle, a thatched hut to recruit farmers; Ferries on the coast of the islands, production of rafts, fishing. The two bases are separated by 1.5 kilometers and are about 3~4 minutes away in a straight line.

Although the two bases were very close, in order to concentrate his forces and save time, Qin Xiaobai focused on the ferry, and all the barbarian peasants spent the night at the ferry.

At half past seven in the evening, after the base at the ferry port was fenced, Qin Xiaobai went offline.

After eating.

Qin Xiaobai was about to make a phone call when Ah Jian came.

"Boss, the things you explained yesterday have been done, and I will email you the coordinates of all the brothers."

"Well, I'll see."

Qin Xiaobai turned on the computer and received an email from Ah Jianlai. It's a very simple email that records the names of about 100 players and the coordinates of the island where they are located on the Empire Starter map.

If this email is accidentally seen by the average player, they may not think that it is a list of members of a small studio or a little-known mini-game guild. Because the number of people is too small, less than a hundred, at most it is just an ordinary guild in a small city.

But wrong.

This list is all of China's top professional players, and all members are in the top 1,000 of the world's professional gamer rankings TPP, or China's professional gamer rankings CTPP.

Their identities are very secretive, they are a group of professional gamers who don't like to be inhibited, they surf the world's top online games, they love war, they love adventure and plunder, and they love all kinds of different things.

The only thing they all like is selling arms in the world's top online games. They are a group of professional arms suppliers, both professional gamers and businessmen.

Because of this common preference, they have come together to form a loose organization of professional gamers - Wolf Smoke. It is a business organization. Collaborate with each other to provide valuable business intelligence and work together to turn business intelligence into money. The principle of the organization is: where there is war, there are members of the wolf.

Qin Xiaobai scanned all the lists and coordinates on the email, and had a rough idea in his heart.

The beginner map is centered on (0,0) and spreads out infinitely in all directions, and there are currently about 37 million islands and more than 140 million players. Each island is separated by a few nautical miles to tens of nautical miles.

The coordinates of the island where Qin Xiaobai is located are (x:20,y:25), which belongs to the most central location of the novice map, and it is also a dense area for players and masters.

Judging from the coordinates, almost all the members of the Wolf Smoke Organization are concentrated in the center of the entire novice map, but each one is still at least a few days apart, and it is impossible to gather all the members together, and it seems that they can only meet on the strategic map.

The nearest member of the group also had a three-day sailing journey from Qin Xiaobai's islands -- not to mention that it was only a three-day sea route, but it had to pass through at least nearly a thousand islands on the way, and it was possible to be attacked by unknown opponents along the way at any time, which was extremely dangerous, and the difficulty of joint operations was even greater.

Qin Xiaobai smiled, he believed that the strength of every brother in the organization could be very good in the novice map where dragons and snakes were mixed.

"Also, to help A-level customers upgrade, do you find a suitable brother to take over?"

"Boss, this is a bit difficult. The brothers entered the game very early, concentrated in the center of the newbie map, too far from the edge of the customer's area. However, I contacted a large game guild in Zhejiang Province, and they had a professional master who entered the game a little late, just near the island where the A-level customer was located, and I gave them a commission task of 10,000 yuan to help her level up. What do you think? ”

"How creditworthiness are they? This customer is my friend, and I need to make sure that the customer gets enough satisfactory service. ”

"This guild was newly opened half a year ago, and it has become a small name in Zhejiang, and it has not yet been ranked in the country. I don't think they're going to joke with their guild's credibility and future. ”

"Okay, that'll do."

Qin Xiaobai didn't want to spend too much effort on this kind of small task that led people to upgrade.

The next day, at five o'clock in the morning.

Qin Xiaobai boarded the 6 game on time, and the sky had already revealed a glimmer of dawn, just bright, and the sea was filled with thick white fog. Standing on the shore of the island, I couldn't see the other islands in the distance, only a hazy black shadow in the distance.

Qin Xiaobai woke up all the 27 barbarian peasants.

Today is the third day after the start of the game, and Qin Xiaobai's task is to build a stone workshop (225 wood), a barbarian barracks (225 wood), and several war rafts (250 wood/one).

The Barbarian Barracks can recruit Barbarian warriors, which are the standard warriors of the Stone Age, and their strength may not be much higher than that of ordinary Barbarian peasants, but their will not to fear death makes them have a combat power far superior to that of ordinary Barbarian peasants. A heavily armed barbarian warrior can compete with about 3~5 barbarian peasants at the same time without falling behind.

Of course, the warrior is only one part of the war, and the more important part is the weaponry.

The stone tool workshop is a place dedicated to the manufacture of stone weapons and armor with high combat effectiveness. Heavy Large Wooden Stick (melee blunt weapon attack, with n% chance to stun, n% chance to knock back), Sharp Stone Spear (melee piercing attack, with n% damage reduction over time to death), Large Stone Block with water chestnut (ranged, smash attack, with n% critical hit), Heavy Wooden Strike (dedicated to ramming defenses and buildings, with special effects), Sturdy Fur Suit (defense). (n is an uncertain number, determined according to the craftsman's manufacturing level, the higher the manufacturing level, the better the effect of weapons and armor.) )

After equipping each Barbarian warrior with weapons, these most primitive but very effective weapons will maximize the combat effectiveness of the Barbarian warriors.

Barbarian warriors are not enough just to have weapons, they can still only fight on 6 grounds. If you want to go out to sea for naval battles, or go directly to the islands of 6 other players, you must equip them with a war raft or a transport raft for each of them.

Qin Xiaobai and 6 Bing have a "peace agreement", so the battle for hegemony in the 6 places on this island can be avoided.

He intends to form a small army of barbarians who can go to the sea to fight naval battles, patrol the surrounding seas, and protect his island and nearby fishing grounds from the players of the neighboring islands. Therefore, all of the above required buildings are indispensable. It must be made in the shortest possible time.

Seventeen barbarian peasants cut down wood and accumulated wood for stone workshops and barracks. Five peasants each took a small raft to the sea to catch fish and stock up on food to recruit warriors. 5 peasant stone tools. After assigning the work of the 27 peasants, Qin Xiaobai pushed the remaining 1 small raft into the sea, picked it up, and rowed it to the sea with his pulp.

He didn't go fishing, but he wanted to explore the area around his island as soon as possible, how many islands there are, the size of each island, how many players there are, the player's progress, the player's nationality, and many other things.

As the saying goes, early birds have worms, and Qin Xiaobai has always believed in this.

At 5 a.m., when most of the players are still sleeping in their warm nests, this is the best time for him to explore the surrounding islands - try to avoid being spotted by players from other islands.

Six small rafts left the ferry and broke through the white fog on the sea. Five of them paddled towards a small fishing ground near the coast, and one paddled towards a hazy black shadow in the depths of the white fog, which was the island where the other players were.
