Chapter 1: A Turning Point of Identity
"Hey......"
Looking at the huge space war machine that was more than ten meters away, it was difficult to take the whole into his eyes, and the man with a slightly thin face and a sun-shaped scar on his eyebrows sighed heavily.
"BOSS, you don't have to blame yourself for this failure, the number of those recruits and the will to fight are completely unreasonable." Next to the man with the scar of the sun, a man with a face full of flesh who was nearly two meters tall persuaded him that he could not be classified into the category of well-developed limbs and simple mind.
A smile tugged at the corner of his mouth, and he shook his head, not responding to the strong man's persuasion.
He wasn't blaming himself at all, what he needed to blame himself was just the predecessor of this shell named Pan Wen.
Dozens of hours ago, a fierce space battle caused heavy losses to Pan Wen's fleet, and when he took over this body, even if he thought he still had a little tactical literacy, the situation was irreparable, and he could only sacrifice the carrier-based shuttle tractor to lead the ship back to the airport.
The reason he sighed was simply that he was reluctant to pay for it...... This reason is not easy to explain to his bodyguard and first mate, but fortunately, the first mate named Dorotai Cassie is very professional and did not ask his employer.
Recalling the previous battle, two 20,000-ton patrol ships, 20 8,000-ton gunboats, and a large number of fighters and mechs were sent out as fixed targets by their predecessors, and the frigate that sat down was also seriously damaged, and only barely maintained its flight ability and was able to escape back. In the heart of someone who already regarded all of Pan Wen's assets as his own, it was really sad enough, and if it was only a few hours earlier, the outcome would have been completely different.
It's a pity that the change of identity is not something he can decide, and the current result can only be accepted in its entirety.
At this time, two soldiers pressed a woman with short and medium-brown hair out of the frigate's personnel passage, and approached Pan Wen and the large first mate through the gangway.
The woman was dressed in the same crew uniform as the soldiers, with a bumpy figure, a beautiful white beauty, but with a few restraints tied around her body, and the hatred for Pan Wen in her eyes was undisguised.
Pan Wen's senses for this beauty are really ordinary, and there is only one reason why she was tied up, to break into the battleship command room with a gun during the battle!
Her crime could be called a rebellion in ancient times, even if Pan Wen was not a prince, he was enough to commit the crime of Zhulian. In the Galactic Age, such an act that threatens the lives of the whole ship is also an intolerable crime, if she hadn't moved out of a big backer under Pan Wen's gun, she would have seen her boyfriend a long time ago!
By the way, the reason why she rushed into the command room was that her boyfriend heroically hung up as a fighter pilot in the battle that she lost in the front.
Turning his face to the strong man beside him: "Dorotai, accompany the two of you to hand her over to the security team, and remember to hand over the video from the command room together." ”
“Hi,Sir!”
Dorotai led the soldiers to press the woman away, and for a while, Pan Wen was the only one left in the maintenance class on the second floor of the huge dock, and the rest of the crew had already been disbanded.
Walking a few steps and holding the fence with both hands, watching the frigate being torn apart from the outer armor of several tens of meters, I felt that my pockets were twitching.
Since the existence of human society, the maintenance and repair of equipment has never been a money-saving thing, and the cost of lifelong maintenance will always reach ten or even dozens of times the cost of equipment, and this is the case for iron tools 10,000 years ago, and today's warships will not be an exception.
After a moment of grief alone, Dorotai arrived with the man he was waiting for.
The leader was a middle-aged man, with only a beard left, black eyes and short black hair, and a wide scar that came out of his hairline and dragged down his chin.
"Master Pan, it's really an honor for you to be the first to think of my Scar Dragon." The man who called himself Scardragon slapped his chest loudly.
His job was similar to that of a foreman, with a large engineering regiment under his command, specializing in ship repair.
Pan Wen shook his head: "There is only one left, what else do you want to mention." ”
"Hahaha! Master Pan laughed, who in the fourth port area does not know that Lord Pan has the skill to collect money, and the two patrol ships are definitely not to the extent of breaking their muscles and bones. ”
Of course, it's not you who lost the money!
Pan Wen scolded in his heart, but he still kept a smile on the surface: "You Scar Dragon can speak, so let's do it, I'm going to buy another frigate, can you contact the goods." ”
Scardragon's eyes lit up, and he turned his face and yelled at the few engineers he had brought, "Why don't you go to work quickly, wait for dinner!" ”
Waiting for a few followers to go on the ship to inspect, Scarry Dragon put on a flattering face: "I don't know what kind of frigate Master Pan wants, do you know that a good ship is much different from a retired one." ”
Pan Wen was silent for a moment, the decommissioned ship is relatively cheap, and the injured big guy next to him, the Kuroshio, is a military decommissioned ship, and it can still be regarded as a qualified frigate. Of course, there are obvious problems with decommissioned ships, they have been in service for decades, and even after maintenance and a certain degree of refurbishment before being sold, the reliability of the same type of equipment is not at the same level as that of a new ship.
"A ship that can outperform the Kuroshio in all aspects would have better equipped with a better detection system."
"You're asking the right question! I know there's a brand new Cam X-VI waiting to be sold. What about the Cam X-VI, the most powerful presence among the frigates, there is no one! ”
The tail of Pan Wen's eyebrows jumped, and the information provided by the "memory" that the so-called "the most powerful existence in the frigate, there is not one of them" turned out to be not a boast!
There are clear criteria for the classification of space warships, mainly by tonnage. In the frigate class, the significant difference with the low-level ships is that all the main ships of the frigate are equipped with a "full-size main gun", which is not a tank gun, but a super weapon with an average length of 100 meters and a weight of at least 10,000 tons, which greatly corrects the accuracy and power of ultra-long-distance strikes! The reason why the Cam X-VI can be boasted as the first frigate is first of all because it is equipped with two positive electronic main guns with a range of 760,000 kilometers, instead of the normal one!
After estimating the money in the bank, Pan Wen nodded: "Okay, help me contact the owner of the goods, go to see the goods tomorrow, if the price is right, I may sign the purchase agreement on the spot." ”
"Master Pan, you are so wise!" Scardragon smiled, and the scars on his face were a little wrinkled, "Do you want to help you prepare the basic information of other 'goods'?" ”
Scardragon was so excited, it was obvious that as the head snake of the port, he could get a lot of middleman income.
Pan Wen hesitated, with Cam X-VI as a reference, the average ship is a little out of the table, and once the purchase contract is signed, there will not be much money to buy another one. But...... Since Scardragon wants to provide free services, there is no reason not to accept it.
"Well, yes, help me collect information on a few ships with guaranteed quality, as long as heavy and light frigates, the others will not be considered for the time being." Nodding again.
Scardragon then complimented him on his wealth and wealth, Pan Wen shook his head and patted him on the shoulder: "It's time to get down to business, I don't want anything wrong with that thing in the hangar, let's talk about the maintenance assessment tomorrow." ”
There was also an unequipped battleship weapon in the hangar of the broken ship in front of him, and its value was a bit outrageous, and he had to explain it clearly.
This is considered to be a temporary handover, and he left the port with Dorotai in a driverless taxi.
Residential areas, a special city, almost no formal residential areas, various hotel-style leisure centers, hotel-style casinos, hotel-style entertainment centers have become the keynote of the city. The city has no sky, and at a height of more than 100 meters, there is a natural light simulation system that covers the entire top surface, and further up, there are only metal, maintenance passages, and a vast starry sky.
Pan Wen in "Memory" has more than ten years of experience here and does not have his own residence, but the hotel where he lives is also fixed, but the previous Pan Wen did not pay attention to personal enjoyment, and the hotel can only be regarded as a mid-range preference, and there is no long-term rental.
To put it bluntly, Pan Wen was a miser dozens of hours ago.
However, the current Pan Wen is not very generous in terms of money, so he ...... He decided to live in the old place!
Luckily, room 512, where he often lived, was unoccupied. In fact, no matter what the hotel, when there are not many guests, it is a normal detail service to leave their favorite rooms for each regular guest as much as possible, so there is no need to book rooms for a long time during the normal time of staff flow.
The first mate and bodyguard, Dorotai, was originally going to be arranged in the standard room on the second floor, but Pan Wen waved his hand and threw him next door to him, since it was a medium-sized hotel and not a long-term residence, it was really unnecessary to care about the one-third price difference, and the security of the bodyguards was also high. It's a pity that Dorotai didn't bow his head for this, and only said thank you very indifferently.
Luggage, except for the uniform on the body, is completely gone, and goes straight back to the room.
Standing in front of the mirror simulated by the holographic projection, Pan Wen shook his head, his eyes fixed on the guy who was shaking opposite.
"The kid is a little handsome!" This guy doesn't know if he's praising himself or himself.
After looking at his whole picture, his attention was turned to the sun-shaped scar between his eyebrows. The scar is the size of a coin and slightly more depressed than the surrounding skin.
Suddenly I thought of something, and reached out to touch the back of my head.
Fortunately, I have hair, so I don't have to spend money on plastic surgery.
He couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief and entered the memory. Other people's "memories" are not really as easy to blend as in legends, it is more like an encyclopedia that has been preliminarily memorized, and often takes a lot of time for the action of recalling.
The size and depth of the sun-shaped scar showed that it had once been a fatal wound, and it was clear that Pan Wen was a combination of two people, the brain and the body belonged to two people, and the two dead ghosts were combined with extremely high medical skills, and he was now the third occupant of this body.
"Hey." Pan Wen suddenly sighed and said to himself, "The memory details are really in place...... It's a pity that it's all illusory. ”
In fact, his current identity as Pan Wen is not a human at all, but an NPC!!!
Yes, NPCs, Non-Player_Character, non-player control characters, their shells are nothing more than a set of data, and the whole world is not real!
Why he occupied the shell of an NPC is his biggest secret, and what can be revealed is that he was also an NPC before he obtained Pan Wen's identity.
This kind of NPC that retains more than one lifetime of "memory", here, in the era of the Great Galactic, has a special title - the Awakened! The group they represent is an extremely rare super boss in the eyes of players!
