Chapter 49: The First Meeting
After reconfiguring the fleet, Pan Vin plans to adjust the 153 men of the Heavy Hammer to 120 and the 126 men of the Kuroshio to 100 men. Considering that there is still a shipload of female crew members in the back to send the boss rank Zhengtai's fire controller Eloan to the Republic of Florin, this transfer has drained all the male crew members except Zhengtai, plus a small number of crew members in other positions, a total of 32 people. As for whether Eloan would be sucked dry by the girls on the ship before he had the opportunity to dock in the Republic of Florina, Pan Wen didn't think about it, it was called self-inflicted, he didn't ask Aloan to run to play in the feminist empire.
The reconfiguration plan, coupled with the technicians who were still inspecting the cruiser, directly increased the crew number on the 00863E to 136 people, which has exceeded the predetermined basic number of members. Next, Pan Wen only needs to replenish some crew members to the control room of the Scalpel, and then go and find a group of tactics for 00863E to survive!
In this way, by the time he travels again, the size of his fleet will exceed 1.5 million tons, which can barely be regarded as a big pirate.
For the last nearly thirty crew members, Pan Wen went to the interactive center again, originally he was short of money and did not plan to recruit high-level crew members, but in the process of recruitment, he found a special target in the application list.
Yuka Nishikawa, female, has no special name, and her position is that of an ordinary captain, but the license she registered is very strange: Assault Level 2, Attack Level 3, Hit Level 3, and Repair Level 1. I can't figure out what kind of license it is, because I can only see the name and level of the license, but it's clear that this woman is a player, a living human!
Finally, they got mixed up with the pirates.
Pan Wen, who still didn't know that he had created the sin himself, still had time to sigh.
At this time, Yuka Nishikawa was playing slot machines in the entertainment area of the hotel.
It's completely different from the boring kind of righteous society where the players are located.,The pirates here often lose and cry dad and call their mother to copy the guy.,There are also people who can't afford to pay back and are dragged outside to fight.,No one is doing this for the sake of picking up girls and pretending to be 13.,It's all happening naturally.,It's full of atmosphere in the entertainment area.。
She is still in the entertainment area, it's not that she doesn't want to experience the fun of pirates, but she joined the pirate camp only to find that the anti-capture restrictions of pirates are too outrageous, so she has no right to act independently!
After joining the pirates, there is a membership mechanism, which does not need to pay a fee, and is actually a credit system. Yuka Nishikawa, who had just become a pirate, was only a fifth-level member - in fact, it was the same as a non-member. Level 5 members can only join other pirate fleets to go out and do a few strokes, and once they have a name on the wanted list of any nearby forces, they can become a level 4 member. Level 4 members still can't take the lead in running out on their own, but they can already enjoy most of the paid services of Segeis, and they can become Level 3 members after becoming a regular wanted criminal of at least two forces. And the plural forces wanted from level 4 to level 3 can filter out more than 90% of the spies of each official force, because it stipulates that only if they are wanted by both the Gabri Federation and the Islamic Empire, they can be upgraded with two wanted names, and if it is not for these two family feuds, there must be three forces wanted.
Ran to the forum to search, and it turned out that she was the only player pirate, and many chat rooms were still discussing "how to smuggle in to avoid the identity of ordinary tourists", "what kind of strength can be used to defeat the Segeis patrol and land directly at the port" and so on.
Here Nishikawa Yuka hides a selfish intention, thinking that maybe other players have also joined the pirates but they haven't announced it, she and the very few players who may exist as pioneers, pirates must have to take a lot of detours, and announcing the situation now is equivalent to standing on the same starting line with everyone again, which is equivalent to a blind opportunity.
So she remained silent and went back to the second world to find her way out for herself.
A few days ago, she joined a pirate group as an ordinary crew member, but the shipwreck team was beaten to death by the players as soon as she went out, and when she came back to life, she was already a fourth-level member. Somewhat inexplicable, she went to the Security Administration to check it out, only to find out that as long as she was resurrected from the Segeys Gene Bank after death, whether she was on the wanted list or not, she was directly upgraded to a fourth-level member.
As soon as she explained this, she understood, in the last era, she specialized in mixing with high-end players, and more or less knew some things that ordinary players would not pay attention to, such as NPCs can be resurrected like players, but they die and resurrect, although the level does not decrease, but there will be a lot of financial losses and amnesia, to put it bluntly, it is the initialization of memory and learning data. It is normal for amnesia to forget about being a spy, so although Segeis does not have compensation from the insurance company, he also gives a little compensation through the policy.
It's a pity that it's really difficult for the fourth-level members to move forward to the third-level members.,She can't think of any good way for a while.,So she keeps hanging the application information in the interactive center.,If there are other players who are better than themselves, they should be able to pull a hand.。 However, she doesn't pin her hopes on a rope, she will go to all the interviews, and if she can meet a pirate with more ambitions, it will definitely be easier to complete the goal wanted by multiple forces.
Boredom shaking the old slot machine, suddenly a series of vibrations on her wrist woke her up.
Hey! Finally, there is a boss who knows the goods again!
Take out the rectangular syringe-shaped object and pull out the change from the slot machine and set off.
Ten minutes later, she met the employer at the interactive center.
A man with a sun-shaped scar on his eyebrows, and three women standing beside him, women's hands kept outside the holster on the side of their legs, looking like they were ready to draw their guns at any moment.
…… It should be considered a historic meeting, and now it is the first time that Pan Wen has come face to face with the player in the Galactic Era, without the barrier of outer space and ship armor.
"Yuka Nishikawa?" Pan Wen maintained his composure, using his natural facial features, especially his slender eyes, to make himself look a little gloomy.
"Yes...... Yes. ”
Yuka Nishikawa stammered slightly, because within seconds of entering the door, she felt that the man in front of her was definitely an extremely high-level NPC, probably the kind of top-level NPC that only appeared in the pure NPC camp.
The reason is not that the woman next to him has given him any ethereal momentum, but that his appearance is extremely distinctive, and the way he speaks is different from what most pirate employers always want to show how good they are, just talking lightly.
Pan Wen saw her uneasiness and thought it was funny.
Since the self-awakening of the last era, he has always stood on the opposite side of the player, rarely has the opportunity to talk to the player in an ordinary environment, and naturally rarely sees the weak side of the player who is not afraid of death.
"Your license is very strange, can you explain it to me."
He spoke in a calm voice and used polite words, but Yuka seemed to hear a threat in it.
Fortunately, she had already explained this matter to several pirate leaders who wanted to hire people before, but there was no need to think about it: "Ah, this is a newly developed ability system in the Isis Empire, they call it this natural power, and the biggest advantage is that it can directly exert its effect after improving its ability, and there is no need to take another exam." ”
It's great, you don't need to take exams, and you don't know how much money you will save if you get to the top.
"Assault Level 2, Attack Level 3, Hit Level 3, Repair Level 1, let's talk about what they all do."
"Each level of assault increases the evasion and damage of fighters/mechs under command by 3%; Increases ship damage by 2% per attack level; Hits give 3% hit modifier per level; Repair provides 1 point/day of ship durability recovery per level, and minor damage can be repaired without the need for a Technician. ”
After hearing this, Pan Wen deliberately frowned and complained: "What a bad system." ”
Sure enough, his attitude made Nishikawa Yuka dissatisfied, and immediately explained: "Actually, I still have some abilities for self-protection, but I didn't register if I didn't use them on the ship, please believe that as long as I have more actual combat experience, I will definitely be much better than ordinary people." ”
Pan Wen nodded noncommittally, lowered his head to look at the panel in front of him, but snickered in his heart.
Compared to his flagship-level advanced master license, which increases the strength of the ship by 120%, the player's skills look like the scum of the scum. But he understands very well in his heart, the player's skill system has always been like this, expensive and not expensive, and because the players are not as clear as the NPC, the growth value is about the same, and the level will be much stronger than the ordinary NPC after the level is higher. For example, the black-haired and brown-eyed girl in front of her, as long as she is upgraded a few more levels, she can completely replace an elite driver like Candace, both of which are a lot of skills, and each is not high.
Seeing that Pan Wen didn't speak, Yuka Nishikawa felt a little annoyed. No NPC has ever looked down on the player so clearly on the player's turf. However, it is such a real sense of oppression that makes many players always try their best to join the camp of NPCs.
Fortunately, Pan Wen didn't let her wait too long, and continued to speak after a while.
"You are from the Islamic Empire, if you join my fleet and are asked to attack the military fleet of the Islamic Empire, how to choose?"
"Follow orders."
Yuka Nishikawa replied without hesitation, too, the second world is not her "real", and she doesn't have any concept of hometown at all.
"You answered decisively, so then the last question remains." Pan Wen guided in a steady tone, "You are now a fourth-level member, have you noticed that all the people who apply for the captain's position are all third-level and second-level members?" ”
Yes, the Interstellar Trade Friendship League is a very loose organization, but Segeis must have its own management in order not to be broken by outsiders, except for those who were born and raised directly in Segeis, everyone has to stay up in other positions for several years before they have the opportunity to become captains, this system greatly prevents spies from quickly approaching the core of power, and the longer it takes, the easier it is to make mistakes. At the same time, the system also makes the vast majority of low-income ground and service personnel in Segeis willing to stay in the living quarters, otherwise everyone will be motivated, and Segeis is not a pirate paradise but a robot service area.
"Huh!?" Yuka Nishikawa opened her mouth and looked dazed.
She hadn't even noticed this kind of detail all along, no wonder the two bosses who had talked about it had ended up refusing at the last minute.
Seeing her reaction, the corners of Pan Wen's mouth curled slightly, and he was finally ready to show his sinister fangs.
