Chapter 23 T1000 (B)
In the Terminator series of movies, from Terminator 1 to Terminator IV, the Terminator with the most appearances should be the Terminator of the T800 model, that is, the Terminator played by the governor in the first and second films. Then there is the T850 model Terminator, which is also played by the governor in the third part, which is exactly the same as the T800 in appearance, but with further enhanced functionality.
But judging from the ability it shows, although the T800 level terminator is powerful, its strength is actually limited, and to put it bluntly, it is more durable and not easy to destroy. But it's not easy here, just compared to ordinary people, for adventurers, this kind of terminator that an ordinary person can kill may not be difficult to deal with.
According to Bloody City's damage rules, when the attack damage fails to break the opponent's defenses, a point of forced damage will be dealt. However, when the attack damage is not even one-third of the opponent's defense, it does not even have the ability to force damage at all.
In this respect, the T800 Terminator can be undamaged against normal guns, but it can still take damage against some high-powered guns. It's just that they have the ability to repair themselves, and because of the shock of their scenes, most ordinary people will lose the courage to shoot continuously because of the opponent's "can't be killed".
And in the entire Terminator series, the one that impresses people the most is actually not the T800 but the T1000.
That is, the liquid metal terminator in the second part.
Although in the third part, the Terminator series has launched a more powerful TX model Terminator, with powerful long-range attack ability and mimic change ability, able to control all kinds of Terminators, which can be called the pinnacle of Terminators, but if it is a one-on-one battle, the TX Terminator may not be stronger than the T1000.
The strength of the TX lies in its sharp offense and ability to control other finishers, and its mimicry ability is limited to the surface, so when it comes to changeability, flexibility, and the unbeatable trait, it is still inferior to the T1000.
For adventurers, the ability to fight alone is always the first, and flexibility and immortality are far more important than strong offensive ability.
Therefore, the practical value of the T1000 is actually above the Tx - after all, no one knows what kind of world they will go to in the future. The TX has its limitations, and is more suitable for the modern world, but the T1000 is suitable for almost any mission world.
In this respect, the significance of the T1000 is far better than the TX, if it is sold in the bloody city, it can be treated as a B-grade product, and it is absolutely sought-after.
In addition, Shen Yi has already learned that all the actions of the Bloody City are carried out on the basis of respecting the background of the original mission world, and will not easily change the balance of power. In other words, since TX is stronger than T1000 in the original mission world, it cannot forcibly increase the value of T1000 beyond TX.
As the highest level in the Terminator world, TX has an unshakable existence of double C-level status, and it cannot be improved by raising it again to improve T1000 in disguise.
If you go up again, it's a B grade.
However, the B-level is a three-difficulty world, and the strength of the robot has entered the realm level of Gundam and Transformers, which is the conclusion that Shen Yi and they reached when collecting store information, which is absolutely correct. In this way, the strongest existence in the Terminator world is stereotyped, and it can only be a double C level, which cannot be changed and cannot be stronger.
As a result, the T1000, which is destined to be one grade lower than the TX ranking, can only be aggrievedly classified as C-level.
In this way, there is a logical paradox - the C-level terminator is more practical and popular with adventurers than the double C-level terminator, and if they have a choice, the adventurers would rather have a C-level T1000 than a double C-level TX, let alone a difference of up to 9,000 points.
This is obviously not a no-no.
There are two ways to solve this problem. One is to weaken the T1000, and the other is to increase the difficulty of the T1000 to buy.
To be honest, both possibilities exist, and Shen Yi is not sure which method it will be.
However, all the world figures he has experienced so far have only seen those who have been strengthened, not those who have been weakened.
From this point of view, it is not the customary style of the city to weaken the strength of a certain weapon or character in order to achieve balance. On the contrary, it is the habit of the city to engage in specialized management.
In this way, Shen Yi is sure that the city will choose the latter way - to increase the difficulty of purchasing.
That is, T1000 is listed as a special item, which is extremely difficult to obtain.
It just so happens that in terms of mechas, the city uses the same method as Gongfa and bloodline items plus blood points, and there must be energy crystals to exchange for the corresponding robot.
It's just that the T1000 is a liquid metal man.
The so-called liquid metal man, from its ever-changing nature, has no core energy crystallization at all.
In other words, with a terminator like T1000, there is no reason why you can get an energy crystal, even if you kill a thousand.
Since everyone can't get it, the difficulty of buying it naturally increases.
But there is no chance like this, and it is obviously not the style of the city - if you can't get it, why exist?
So the bloody city simply made a general-purpose energy crystal.
Whoever performs well in the task will be rewarded with a piece, and as long as you can make up a C-class general-purpose energy crystal, you will have a chance to get a T1000 Terminator.
All the problems were solved naturally.
Otherwise, the corresponding energy crystallization can get the corresponding robot, so why bother with any general-purpose crystallization?
Taking control of an air carrier and forcing the city to take drastic measures to blow it up, such a big achievement, why only reward each person with a D-class general-purpose energy crystal?
The answer is imminent.
You have to collect, integrate, and redeem rewards to truly unlock their value.
Of course, all this was Shen Yi's speculation, and he couldn't be sure if things were as he speculated, but he thought it was very likely, because he had always felt that the reward given by the city of this mission was really not in line with his contribution. Then there must be something greasy in this.
So he kept thinking about it until a flash of inspiration came to him, and he remembered the gentle splitting of the reward.
Information is the foundation of everything, and the more information you have, the more detailed and reliable the data you can produce.
Shen Yi thought that the rewards could also be combined through the reward splitting, and deduced the solutions and balancing measures for various problems through various models of terminators and the previous styles of the bloody city, and then deduced everything from the characteristics of the T1000 liquid metal that it was impossible to obtain energy crystallization, the contribution of the tasks he had completed, and his understanding of the information and materials of the items currently sold in the bloody city.
For Bloody City, the opportunity is given to you, and whether you can grasp it or not is your own business. If you can take advantage of the opportunity, it may be understood that this is the reward you get for completing a difficult mental task that is not in danger of your life.
For Shen Yi, things became simpler - he speculated on a possible way to get T1000, and the rest was to act and take risks for it.
With his character, it would be strange if he didn't bet on it.
The robot enhancement route was originally a robot of the same level far stronger than the skills of the same level, which is like T6 is more practical than a D-level skill, T8 is more practical than a double D skill, and T1000 is a hidden species in the C-level robot strengthening, the purchase value is C-level, the strength value is double C-level, and the practical value is only afraid that it can be ranked to B-level, once it is obtained, its significance can be imagined.
At this moment, although Zhou Yiyu didn't expect so much, he finally realized what kind of huge reward Shen Yi might get, and he said with a sad face: "Damn, T1000! No wonder you're so bold, I should have asked for more. ”
The loss of an air carrier controlled by them was the reward, but now the results are all in the hands of Shen Yi. But the agreement has been completed, and the things have been returned to others, and Zhou Yiyu just wants to regret it too late.
Shen Yi patted Zhou Yiyu's shoulder and smiled: "Don't worry, this is just speculation, I don't know if it can be done, maybe there are other conditions?" But I can assure you that if I do get T1000 for 9,000 blood points, I'll give you some more good. ”
"Really?" Zhou Yiyu lit up.
"Of course, but until then, I want you to fulfill your other promise. ”
"What promise?" Zhou Yiyu paused, unable to figure out what else he had promised the other party.
Shen Yi replied slowly: "You said that if the value of the news I gave you is really valuable, you will return the five hundred points to me." ”
Zhou Yiyu opened his mouth wide and couldn't speak.
For a long time, he scolded: "Dog's day, count you ruthless!"
He reluctantly returned the five hundred bloody points to Shen Yi.
―――――――――
The SUV drove straight down the country road to Los Angeles.
It was the place where Shen Yi and his partner made an appointment to meet.
Perhaps because of the lack of time, Shen Yi and Zhou Yiyu were not in a hurry to leave, but instead sightseeing around leisurely all the way, looking at the scenery.
Passing by a deserted motel, they even got out of the car and cooked themselves a good meal.
Shen Yi's craftsmanship is quite good, and Zhou Yiyu applauded him again and again.
Time flew by, and soon it was afternoon.
During this time, Hong Lang King Kong and the others have always spent time in being hunted down, struggling in anger and hustle and bustle - the same task, different people to perform, and their performance is also different.
Zhou Yiyu actually didn't really want to be with Shen Yi's partner - that would make him lose control of the situation, although he didn't have much control now, but it was one-on-one, wasn't it?
However, this time is a Jedi survival mode after all, and there is no benefit for adventurers to kill each other, and with Zhou Yiyu's current understanding of Shen Yi, the other party's character is obviously quite trustworthy, so he finally agreed.
"Hey, I'm going to be ugly, this kid is protected by you and me, and no one else can interfere. Even if you meddle, you can't participate in the distribution of spoils. While driving, Zhou Yiyu said to Shen Yi.
Shen Yi was playing with the handheld computer with his head down, looking at the various information he had obtained from the data room of the air carrier, and his brain automatically filtered out the useless parts, and then extracted the important content for annotation. At this moment, when he heard Zhou Yiyu say this, he didn't raise his head and said: "This is not fair, right? Everyone has a contribution, and we can't ignore the contributions of others." ”
Zhou Yiyu pursed his mouth: "As soon as they come, what other benefits can I get? ”
Shen Yi immediately replied: "The people I have worked with, as long as they are friends, they don't want to leave." ”
"Then you've got one right now. ”
"Come on, Zhou Yiyu. Shen Yi finally raised his head, and he looked at the other party with a smile: "I know you're in a very unhappy mood now, but you ask yourself, let's meet for the first time and work together to complete the task, do you and I suffer together?"
Zhou Yiyu was stunned, and Shen Yi had already crossed his fingers and said, "Others who complete the first main quest are just getting the benefit of five hundred blood points. What about you? Now it's 1,800 points, a D-class energy crystal, a temporary terminator T6, and I owe you a thousand blood points. Suffice it to say, you wouldn't have gotten this without me. ”
"You can't do it without me. ”
"Yes. Shen Yi nodded affirmatively: "But I can form a partner with any adventurer and play their role." Without you and Xi Xiaofan, I can't control the air carrier at best, but I can get other benefits in other ways. There are always a lot of opportunities in the quest world, and if I don't get these, I can get others. As long as you put your heart and mind to it, you will always find opportunities, but you will gain a difference. What about you? Are you sure you're going to get extra benefits every time in any quest world?"
Zhou Yiyu was speechless for a while, although his familiarity with Shen Yi was limited, he already had some understanding of what kind of person this was.
He is indeed very good at discovering the hidden tasks and hidden functions in the mission world, which can be known only by the degree of this person's desperate collection and use of information, such as the handheld computer in his hand, the price is not expensive, but not every adventurer will buy it.
Still, he said, "But you get more benefits." ”
Shen Yi straightened his face: "Zhou Yiyu, don't always focus on others." Whether I can get the T1000 or not is still unknown, and who knows if Bloody City has set other thresholds in the process. Even if I did, it would be a reward for my hard work and risk-taking. The opportunity was also placed in front of you, and if you didn't grasp it yourself, you can't blame others for seizing it. If you don't think it's appropriate to work with me because of this, then I can only say that you have no future. People who only focus on the good of others will not succeed. ”
Zhou Yiyu was stunned by Shen Yi's words, and after thinking about it, he nodded and said, "You're right, I'm being careful." I'm sorry I said the wrong thing just now, and now I reiterate that I'm glad to be working with you this time. ”
He stretched out his hand towards Shen Yi.
Shen Yi looked at Zhou Yiyu and chuckled: "The son can be taught." ”
