Some things often only exist in fairy tales.
The good expectations I had for foreign lands and large-scale secret realms were gone in just one and a half days.
Those open space cracks are like infinite black holes, sucking everything away.
human Resources? Logistics materials? army? A strong lone man? A well-known mercenary adventure group?
No matter which one you are, there is always a suitable battlefield for you.
"The problem is that the feeling of powerlessness facing the world alone... This is basically unsolvable. There are limits to personal power."
A super large secret realm is like an eternally empty water-absorbing sponge, constantly absorbing all the human and financial resources around it.
Lu Ping'an somewhat understood why the peripheral roads and fortresses were so crude, and all kinds of weapons and equipment were full of pragmatic beauty... No matter how many additional modifications were made, it was useless, and unlimited human resources could still not be defeated. If you have a blister, what's the point of making it look so beautiful on the outside?
"Large battlefields are frontal battlefields between the army and foreign countries. If they don't come out, we won't go in. We just need to maintain a dynamic balance."
"Our current Pothole No. 6 is, in a sense, just a logistics base for them. The new recruits that are constantly being produced will become a problem for us, so we have to get rid of them in advance."
Under the leadership of veterans, Lu Pingan began his life as a professional secret keeper.
"Of course, you can also regard us as a different kind of miners..."
In fact, this is the main job that a normal secret keeper should perform. After all, the number of special service teams is always extremely limited.
Although it is relatively stable to live in the public sector, the growth rate will be much slower after losing the first-line resource supply. For professionals, growth rate is life.
Along the way, Lu Pingan has seen several strong men at the legal level. This is their real home.
Most of them are pure wild professionals. Let alone Gu Da, they have never even had contact with a formal training institution.
】
Their life, killing, hunting, growing up, is simple and rough, but also makes people helpless and even desperate.
"Protect yourself first. We can't kill all the monsters..."
The beasts lying on the ground were showing off their power a few minutes ago, but in the hands of this elite harvesting team, they only survived for two minutes.
Lu Ping'an's performance can only be said to be quite satisfactory. Before he even had time to fully open his battlefield, the game was over.
After introducing his identity (a college student from the special service team Kagu), Lu Pingan easily gained the temporary recognition of the team. Even the captain named Cao took the initiative to introduce some situations to Lu Pingan.
This team is not strong... Judging from Lu Ping'an's standards, how can a team with three level 2 combatants and two logistics be called strong?
Lu Ping'an estimated that if he took action with all his strength, it would only take a minute.
However, they are well suited for such a battlefield.
After encountering a monster, put the tank-oriented combat class on top, and the sentinel will observe the whole scene to determine the situation, and what the assistants behind him should do.
Without a powerful elemental exporter, that thing would be too luxurious for this team to support... With the current configuration, they can still harvest monsters stably and efficiently and turn them into materials one by one.
"Materials with petrochemical properties are not actually sold well on the market. But drugs with petrochemical properties are another matter."
At this time, Lu Ping'an was a little envious of the normal path of a potion master.
This super-large underground palace with an unknown number of floors is rich in various petrified creatures, from stone dwarfs to rock giants. Therefore, petrified weapons and props are mass-produced.
However, petrochemical weapons are not popular in the market, because they have to fight against the resistance of the "opponent", and there are often situations where the fight is equal to the fight in vain.
And what if the opponent is a weakling who is instantly killed by the petrifying ray? Then there is no need to use valuable petrochemical weapons.
"Professionals of the Perpetual Dynamic System can use petrochemical potions to practice? They can play."
Petrochemical potions are quite easy to sell.
Potions that petrify the skin to increase defense in the short term are quite easy to use, and it is said that runners and awakened professionals can actively absorb petrified potions for regular exercise.
It is said that there is a lineage of monks from the Awakened family who specialize in training various petrification abilities. When they practice to the extreme, they are known as human-shaped diamonds, which can be called a black and hard model.
"Don't underestimate these petrifying agents. Their defense against bullets is surprisingly good. Even if they are injured in the petrified state, it is basically a flesh wound. Moreover, they have a certain repair ability after being petrified. As long as the bullets are cleaned before removing the petrification, conventional guns The injuries can basically be ignored, this is the best low-level way to deal with small-caliber automatic weapons."
Many low-level professionals will carry a bottle of quick-acting stone skin potion with them, and take a sip when they need to be shot. It often has miraculous effects.
Sometimes, only through personal contact can you know many "life tips" for low-level professionals.
In a sense, this is a resource point of the ancient city, but the resources produced by Lupingping can only be seen in the market in the past.
The security company in Lu Ping'an's hands, as well as the more than thirty seal knights, also let them act on their own.
But not in Pit No. 6... Lu Ping'an noticed that the place was still dominated by human defenders.
Pit No. 8 is said to be mostly populated by outsiders, which is more suitable for the knights in Lu Ping'an's hands.
As warriors, they need battlefields and more income... The guaranteed income provided by Lu Ping An is not low, but they need joint credit coins to arm themselves.
It is worth mentioning that the "credit coin" mechanism, which Lu Pingan thought was a pitfall, is very popular in this environment.
"As soon as I came here, I saw people exchanging currency privately. I thought you didn't like this new currency."
"Oh, how could it be? Our biggest problem before was that we couldn't buy good goods with money..."
For middle- and lower-level secret keepers like Lao Cao, the level of loot they can obtain is limited. It is easy for them to make money, but want to obtain further resources? The market may not be able to buy it.
Take refuge in the major churches? Putting aside the side effects this will bring, those churches also want to ask for it. Who wants to spend resources cultivating a middle-aged man who has no potential to tap?
But it just so happens that these "ordinary secret keepers" who seem to have no potential and no future are 99% of the professionals.
By the standards of ordinary people, their income is high, but it is difficult to access higher-level resources. The monopoly of major churches in many aspects is quite excessive, and they lack further opportunities.
The sky-high prices for taboo items in the market actually hurt them the most.
But things are different now. With "credit coins" you can buy "knowledge", further "taboo rituals", and even practical taboo items.
"This month, several old second-level men have successfully broken through..."
Lu Ping'an's vision before had been looking upwards, but now that he stopped, he realized that many things were completely different from what he had imagined.
For new credit coins, low-level professionals who were originally worried about their life problems are the most welcoming... Most of them have accumulated enough Dongguo coins in the past long hunting. The difficulty is not a problem at all, let alone...
"In half a year, or at most half a year, the exchange restrictions between credit coins and Dongguo coins will be significantly reduced. But the credit coins should not be as valuable as they are now. We must try to spend the money as much as possible and turn it all into resources for development."
Looking at Captain Cao who was full of confidence, Lu Pingan felt that he was much more confident about the future than he was.
