Chapter 19: The Next Game?
"Hey, hey, it's done!"
After dinner, the corners of Qi Lin's mouth curled slightly when he came out of his cousin's house.
After almost a day of flickering, Xiao Xuan finally agreed to Qi Lin's matter and sent him to the African continent.
It's just that the time is set for a week later.
Although Xiao Xuan is an internal executive of a large foreign labor company, if he wants Qi Lin to be secretly transported out of the country without outsiders knowing, he also needs to prepare for a period of time.
"But it doesn't matter, I can also take advantage of this time to familiarize myself with the skills, and it is best to master the art of dancing the sky." After getting into the taxi again, Qi Lin thought to himself.
And you can also think about what you will use for the next game.
The original purpose of going to Africa this time was to make money, after all, it is often said in the novel that there are many diamonds in Africa, and it is chaotic, which is most suitable for fishing in troubled waters and selling arms.
Therefore, after Qi Lin found out that modern US military equipment could be purchased in the system mall, his first thought was to go there to play an arms dealer.
Is there anything more lucrative than selling arms in war-torn areas?
And if you can, you can make a lot of money by getting a bag of diamonds to sell.
Although Qi Lin didn't know why he wanted to make so much money......
But who doesn't like a lot of money?
But after an afternoon, when fooling his uncle, Qi Lin also thought a lot about himself.
So on the original money-making plan, Qi Lin added another one - to establish a base!
Because of the limitations of the system to travel through the movie world, Qi Lin felt that it was too unreliable to establish a base in the movie world, after all, he could only travel through 3 times a week, even if he found a movie and created a base, he wouldn't need it many times.
And unlike the novels he watched that traveled through the movies, his system could only travel randomly into the movies through the guò game, and the unknowns were too great to determine whether his next movie was suitable for building a base.
So after thinking about it, Qi Lin decided to build the base in the real world.
In this way, the base can not only make money by selling arms for itself, but also build a safe place for itself.
And even if Qi Lin improves his strength, it is impossible to be by his family's side all the time, and once he has a base, he can cultivate some powerful bodyguards by himself to protect his relatives in secret.
In this way, Qi Lin can improve himself more confidently, without worrying that if he exposes himself because of a moment of negligence, the relatives around him will be implicated, or they will be held hostage and threaten him.
When it comes to building a base, many strategy games can do it, so there is no difficulty for Qi Lin to do this, and he can also build his own base without using the real human race, and the secrecy is naturally needless to say.
But it is precisely because there are too many games that can build a base on his own, so Qi Lin now doesn't know what game to use, so he suffers from a phobia of choice.
Although Qi Lin didn't play many strategy or strategy games, even if he was lonely and didn't even like to play strategy games, he did play real-time strategy games like Command & Conquer, Red Alert, StarCraft, Warcraft, and Age of Empires.
Among them, the technology level of the Age of Empires is too low to be excluded, although the World of Warcraft is stronger, but the technology tree is crooked, and it is not suitable for development in this world, so it can also be excluded.
But even so, there are still three series of games to choose from.
Although Red Alert used to be a Command & Conquer series, with the start of Red Alert 2, the storyline and tech tree have completely unrelated to the original work, so in Qi Lin's eyes, this can be regarded as two series.
As a result, Qi Lin was completely caught in a dilemma.
Among the three series, StarCraft's technology level can be said to be the highest, after all, StarCraft has started, can it not be high?
Although the Command & Conquer series is not as good as it, it is already rampant with all kinds of mechas, and at least in one game, it has begun to fight aliens.
And the technology level of the Red Alert series is undoubtedly the lowest of the three, although it has been improved in the third generation, but in the final analysis, it is just a game of earthlings fighting earthlings.
It can be said that the familiarity with the game is dù.
Command & Conquer Qi Lin has only played one type, and he has only played it for a while at the instigation of his classmates.
Although StarCraft has been playing for a long time, Qi Lin is too handicapped, basically can't even beat a simple AI, and after feeling that his self-esteem was injured, this game finally failed to 'live' on his computer for a week, and it can be said that he didn't even recognize all the classes in the game.
And whether it is the second generation or the third generation, Qi Lin has played for a long time, and even now there is Red Alert 3 on Qi Lin's computer...... Pirated of course.
Although Qi Lin didn't dare to say how good he played, at least the troops in the 2nd and 3rd generations of Red Alert knew each other.
In addition, the rift generator in the Red Alert will be of great help to Qi Lin in establishing a secret base.
Maybe the rift generator in Red Alert 2 is a bit weak and can only block radar or satellite scanning, but in Red Alert 3, the Allied Phantom Tank's rift generator skill can directly distort the light and hit the dual hidden effect of vision and satellite/radar, which can be said to be very powerful.
If this is the case, even if Qi Lin builds his base on the ground and does not set up any shielding, as long as there are enough Phantom Tanks to use the Rift Generator, he can ensure that his base will not be discovered.
And he can also send a Phantom Tank to ambush around and disguise itself as a stone or tree, and no one will find out.
In addition, in some of the novels of the Red Alert series that Qi Lin has read, the engineers are the backbone of the construction base, and it is not too simple to invent and create a zào magic horse.
Qi Lin didn't ask them to invent and create any high-tech things, but if they just built and managed the base, it should still be very simple, right?
In addition, some special units in the Red Police can also be used to protect their loved ones, such as Omega Yuriko with superpowers, Natasha the sniper, and Tanya, the most legendary figure in the Red Police, who is said to be the captain of the special operations team.
So after thinking about it, Qi Lin suddenly found that there seemed to be no choice at all? Because he hasn't played much other games at all, he can only choose Red Alert 3?
With the answer in his heart, Qi Lin didn't think much about it anymore, just waited for the car to arrive at the place, and then turned on the computer to buy the game.
This time, the taxi driver didn't talk as much as the previous one, maybe he had been thinking about things silently after seeing Qi Lin get on the bus and report the name of the place, and he didn't bother him.
It wasn't until he got to the place that he called him.
After paying the fare, Qi Lin returned to the room, turned on the light, looked at the almost empty room, silently took out the computer from the space and put it on the table, and after connecting to the Internet with the help of the Guò system, he decisively purchased Red Alert 3: Hour of Uprising from Steam.
"Anyway, it's not to connect with others, if you want to play, you can play with more troops!"
Ten minutes later, looking at the purchase page where the transaction was completed, Qi Lin smiled.
"Then in the next period of time, let's familiarize myself with the newly purchased skills!"
