Chapter 23 Core Upgrades

For Duanmu Huai, this is indeed a surprise.

Although he had already guessed that since he was teleported to Alyssa, it meant that there should be a main quest and a clue to the holy relic following her, but he didn't expect that the first holy relic had already been started so quickly.

After obtaining the holy relics, Duanmu Huai temporarily separated from Alyssa and the others, went to the top of the castle, and then turned on the system. Soon, a line of system prompts appeared in front of Duanmu Huai.

[Relic signal detected, do you activate the transmission beacon?] 】

"Start."

With Duanmu Huai's order, soon, six skulls quietly appeared on the soles of his feet, and then a beam of light emerged from it, and then Duanmu Huai's eyes flashed, and the next moment, he returned to the core cabin that was originally suspended in space. Beside him, Ogis also looked left and right, obviously curious about this wonderful place.

At this moment, there is no difference between the core cabin and the Duanmu Huai when he leaves, except for a terminal and a hibernation cabin, it is still empty. Duanmu Huai walked to the terminal, stretched out his hand, and put the "Gift of the Water God" on the platform above the terminal. Soon, the terminal lights up automatically, and then lines of information appear.

【Relic signal detected】

【Relic Recovered】

At the same time, Duanmu Huai saw that the white pearl shattered and decomposed, turned into light and dust, and disappeared without a trace.

[Construction Points +1]

【Construction function has been enabled】

Along with the system information, Duanmu Huai saw the terminal expand again, and then, lines of information appeared in it.

[Core Module (Completed)] [Reactor (Ununlocked)] [Enhancement Room (Ununlocked)]

【Inquisition Library (Ununlocked)】【Strategic Command Room (Ununlocked)】

[Power System (Ununlocked)] [Defense Mod (Ununlocked)] [Weapon Mod (Ununlocked)]

【Extinction Order (Ununlocked)】【Void Air Barracks (Ununlocked)】【Void Dock (Ununlocked)】

Special Buildings (Ununlocked)

"Good."

Looking at the construction blueprint in front of him, Duanmu Huai couldn't help but rub his hands. This is also a fundamental part of the Inquisitor's Space Fortress.

Needless to say, the [core cabin] is where Duanmu Huai got up before.

The [Strategic Command Room] is mainly used for an intuitive scanning and reconnaissance of the entire planet map.

The power reactor is the basic component that provides the energy of the fortress.

The name "Enhancement Room" is a bit misleading, at first glance it sounds like it is used to enhance the player's self, but this is not the case, in fact, the [Enhancement Room] is used to create servants.

The so-called machine servant is a technological creation from an ancient empire, which simply means cultivating a person through cloning, and then fusing it with machinery to transform it into a mechanical cyborg. This kind of servant is not self-aware, and can do simple work through internal program logic.

Of course, if the player finds it troublesome, they can also directly catch some criminals and put them in the brainwashing device to be reformed.

As an aside, there have also been players who have captured a group of beautiful women and come back to be servants to try if they can do whatever they want......... It's a pity that games are just games after all, as for what happens in reality......... That's hard to say.

However, the basic thoughts that have this kind of thought have been eroded by the god of desire, and the list of people who can go to the court has been loyal.

The Inquisition Library is a large library, but it is not just a library, it is also an analysis and transformation device. Players can give what they have obtained from their adventures in other worlds to the [Inquisition Library] for analysis, so as to obtain skills, magic or knowledge from that world, which can be used to modify their own fortresses.

The [Defense Module] is the protective barrier of the Fortress Space Station, and the [Weapon Module] is used to build various defensive weapons, and there is nothing special about it.

The next thing to talk about is the [Extermination Order]......... Well, as the name suggests, the Extinction Order is a decree to exterminate a planet, which is essentially a powerful weapon to destroy the planet. If an Inquisitor confirms that the planet's chaos has become hopelessly corrupted, he can use his authority to sign an extermination order, and then blow up the entire planet to ashes ——— one shot.

The Void Air Camp is a place where the Inquisitors train their own troops, while the Void Dockyard is mainly used to build warships. The former is of little use to Duanmu Huai, because the later soul walkers are almost an army of one person......... In fact, it's the same now, if you want to, you can pave hundreds of puppets to enter the scene.

It's just that the attack power is really low.

[Special Buildings] is an additional enhancement mod, if a player has completed an adventure on a planet, if his main quest rating is high enough, or the planet's reputation is high enough, it is possible to obtain additional building mod rewards, so that they can build some buildings with special abilities.

However, this is still too far away for the current Duanmu locust.

And in what order these buildings are unlocked, there is also a particular order.

In "Star Ocean Online", there are several civilization routes, one is the default Inquisitor Empire technology route, this kind of player does not need to be entangled, and it will be over automatically by default when clicked. In addition, there are several other civilization routes, all of which have been developed over time by the accumulation of civilizations scattered throughout the galaxy after the "Black Hole Project", including magical civilizations, technological civilizations, and hybrid civilization routes.

Basically, only new players will go to the silly point default Imperial Tech route. Although the empire's technology route is indeed quite good and powerful in the early stage, if you think about it carefully——— you will understand that such a powerful empire has overturned with the subspace chaos evil god, don't you just turn over the rhythm when you point it out?

Instead, it is best to search for the technology of other civilizations, and then improve the advantages of others.

Therefore, Duanmu Huai did not unlock the [Power Reactor] immediately, and if it is unlocked at present, because there is only the default Imperial Technology Tree, the [Plasma Reactor] will be automatically built, the Imperial Technology Core. However, this has the advantage of being able to charge the weaponry system that comes with the stronghold, and allows the player to have a certain degree of spatial firepower advantage in the early stage. But after that, players will find that different powertrain requirements have different modules. In other words, once the player has built the Plasma Reactor, the mods he will later venture out of other planets may not be usable at all, and he will only be able to follow the default Imperial technology line.

Typical pick up sesame seeds and throw watermelon.

Well............... Duanmu Huai even wondered if the game makers had deliberately designed it this way, after all, it was tempting to be able to perform space-based strikes in the early stages of the game...............

But later they will find out how big the price is.

After all, building a mod only costs 1 construction point.

It takes 10 points to dismantle it...............

Well, that's what it was meant to be.

"Unlock the Strategic Command Room."

Duanmu Huai thought about it for a while, and decided to build the [Strategic Command Room] first, at present, he does not need space-based weapons to strike, although the [Inquisition Library] is also very important, but for now, opening the map is the highest priority.

“—————————!!”

As Duanmu Huai's words fell, a white light suddenly flashed throughout the core cabin, and then the core cabin began to tremble. After a few moments, everything fell silent again. At the same time, Duanmu Huai found that at the end of the core cabin, where it should have been a wall, there was an extra heavy gate. He walked over, and soon, the gate was raised, and immediately after, a large cabin appeared in front of Duanmu Huai.

It doesn't look like the centerpiece of the station, but rather like part of a church, judging by the gilded décor and architecture around it. The edges of the floor-to-ceiling portholes, which are nearly ten meters high, are decorated with rich lace, and the curved dome is painted with ornate patterns. Bright red flags hung high on the walls, and through the windows, you could clearly see the blue planet and the starry sky not far away

The light of the stars shone in through the portholes, and the emblem of the double-headed eagle shone with a dazzling golden glow.

If it weren't for the holographic projection console on the middle platform, it would look more like a church hall than a space station or part of a battleship.

Well, it's not surprising, after all, players have long complained that the Empire's warships and space stations just added engines under the church.........

But in any case, for the current Duanmu locust, this is enough.

He walked to the holographic projection console, stretched out his hand, and soon, under Duanmu Huai's movements, the whole picture of the planet completely emerged.

So, get ready to go.

When Duanmu Huai and O'Kis returned to Silver City through the teleportation beacon again, the others had been waiting for a long time.

"Where the hell have you gone?"

Looking at Duanmu Huai's figure, the elf scout asked angrily.

"I couldn't find you anywhere, I thought you ran away with the holy relic."

"I just did some preparing."

Duanmu Huai didn't say much, but looked at the others.

"What about you?"

"We also did some preparatory work and were just waiting to go."

The elven scout said with a prickly voice.

"But it's a bit of a hassle to plan the route, after all, we don't know much about the situation outside.........

"If that's the problem, don't worry."

As he spoke, Duanmu Huai opened his right hand, and soon, with the light flickering, a projection of a planet appeared in front of him.

"Huh?!"

Seeing this scene, everyone's eyes widened in surprise.
