"Okay, how many resources do you need to reveal some of the information? I'll borrow as much as you want!" Obviously, Conlin didn't dare to mess around with borrowing money. After all, if he couldn't pay back the money, he would be killed. Shamelessly obliterated. Although this guy didn't know whether what the electronic voice said was true or false, as long as he was a human being, he would not dare to make fun of his own life.
"Hey, it costs 10 units of silver to parse the lowest-level data. To parse the medium-level data, the authority is not enough. To parse the highest-level data, the authority is not enough..." After receiving Kang Lin's affirmative reply, Electronic Sound quickly offered the price.
"Hey, the first 10 taels of silver are waiting for. Isn't it a bit expensive? Let's analyze it later when we have money!" Although Kang Lin doesn't know how valuable silver is in this world, the first 10 taels of silver are still worth it. It successfully frightened him, because even if he was sold outright now, it would probably not be worth a few dollars, ten taels of silver. Don't be in trouble if you can't afford it by then (the value of silver in the Ming Dynasty was still very high) Strong, Kanglin often reads novels and knows the value of silver).
"Yeah, yes, but the price for the next analysis will be increased by 10%." However, the electronic voice's reply soon made this guy completely crazy.
"Damn it, I didn't understand it this time and it will go up by 10% next time. I can't rob a bank as fast as you!" Kang Lin had no choice but to ask Diyin for a loan.
"Hey, how much are you prepared to borrow?"
"I'll borrow 100 units of silver." Knowing that the minimum amount needed to be borrowed was 100 units, Kang Lin was already criticizing the system in his heart.
"Hey, please sign the IOU!" Kang Lin didn't know when a piece of paper full of words and a quill dripping with ink appeared in his hand. It seemed that the system had been prepared for a long time, but who told this guy to do anything besides borrowing money? There was no other solution. Without saying anything, he put the paper in his hand close and looked at it carefully. After finding no text traps, the guy happily signed his name on the debtor column.
"Hey, the deduction is successful, there are 90 units of silver left, please pay attention to receive it!" Electronic Sound deducted the consulting fee, put 90 units of silver in a pocket and threw it at Kang Lin's feet, and began to analyze the data, "First of all , let me introduce myself first. This system is called the Age of Empires Rise Support System. Of course, you can also call me the Empire System for short. My mission is to urge you to quickly develop your own power and be strong in the coming continental war for hegemony. Rise up, defeat other competitors, compete for every inch of land under the sun, and finally succeed in dominating the world...Okay, if you have any questions, you can ask them now."
"Then how did you get me here?" Conlin started to ask after getting the hint from the so-called empire system.
"Hey, this matter is a bit complicated to explain, but I suggest that you think of this as a time travel, a time travel caused by aliens! And this is exactly the case. I, the Empire System, was created by the Universe Five Super civilization, the power of the empire star civilization, (the empire star civilization gave me the most powerful power,)
Coming to this continent is the masterpiece of our great, noble, and superior (one to two hundred words are omitted here) empire system. After we choose the players, we will spend 90% of our own resources. The energy creates a miniature black hole, transporting the selected player to this world called the Empire Continent by the natives, and then giving the player powerful power, allowing them to become swordsmen, warlocks, or lords! Think about it, what an amazing thing this is. People who were originally ordinary people will gain power, wealth, and status that they could not even imagine before. In return, all they need to do is to work hard and eliminate them. Others can just become the most powerful overlord on this continent! "
"Oh, it turns out it's an online version of a strategy game, but I don't understand. What's the point of doing this for you?" Kang Lin finally figured out why he kept dreaming about war before time travel. The co-author is The Empire System is training itself as a new player in the game.
"Hey, this is not primary information. I don't have enough authority to answer it."
"There are so many people in the world, why did you choose me?" Thinking of playing a bad game, you will be transported to another world by a system created by aliens. What's even worse is that you still don't know why the aliens are so... Doing it, Kang Lin began to moan feebly in his heart.
"Hey, because it was already midnight when the Empire System arrived on Earth, and you were the only short, poor, fat guy around who was still playing the old game Age of Empires, so I chose you."
"Hey, fat people are fat people, but can you not add 'short and poor' in front of fat people? Do you know that it is very offensive when you say this." Conlin has some ideas for this unreasonable imperial system. No, so I could only choose to moan like a meaningless moan.
"By the way, and what happened to that collection of information you just mentioned?" After this guy figured out how and why he was wearing it, he knew that he wouldn't be able to go back in a short time, so he just You can choose to believe in this seemingly powerful imperial system.
"Hey, although this system has great magical powers, it cannot make things out of thin air. Therefore, players must be assigned to collect data on each type of military unit and building, because only with data can the system be successfully modeled. And convert resources into soldiers, weapons, battleships and even buildings that players need! Moreover, this system does not ask you to go there for nothing. As long as you complete each data collection, this system will give corresponding information that is consistent with the difficulty of data collection. of reward.”
"Well, what you said makes sense, but I am unarmed now. I'm afraid I will be shot in two by cannons before I even get to those ships..." Kang Lin knew that the system needed to collect battleship information by himself. , and began to use this reason to seek some benefits from the system.
"Hey, this is the player's own business. This system can't help..." The system's answer was watertight, leaving Kang Lin with no loopholes to exploit.
"You're so boring, how many more resources can I borrow from you?" Kang Lin saw that one move didn't work, so he immediately resorted to another move.
"Hey, player, you can also borrow 300 units of wood, 200 units of grain, and 1,000 units of copper..."
"System, can you give me a hint on how to successfully collect information?"
"Hey, players only need to point this jade pendant at the warship that needs to collect information within a range of 1,000 meters to successfully collect information about that warship..." Hearing this, Kang Lin instantly relaxed half of his heart. There was no need to get close to collect them. After thinking about the painful range and poor hit rate of artillery in this era, this guy basically had nothing to worry about.
"But let's see, why are those ships ten miles away from me? How should I get closer!" The man muttered, but unexpectedly the system sent another message on the white paper. Because This is his first action, and the system is preparing to build a ship for him at a "low price" so that this guy can complete the mission.
"What, it's a small sloop with no weapons on it. You actually dare to ask me for 250 units of wood and 73 units of silver. You have the nerve to call it a 'low price'. You think I'm a fool." Although he was prepared in his heart, when he saw the system's quotation, this guy was almost furious. It seemed that this unreasonable system was planning to kill him as a fat sheep. (Explain that the manufacturing price of a ship is not a simple accumulation of materials and labor required in reality, but also the price of system procurement and transmission from other worlds. After the ship manufacturing plant and dock are established, the ship The manufacturing price of the ship will be reduced accordingly.)
"Hey, although the cost of building a sloop is only 50 units of wood and 14.7 units of silver, its manufacturing time is not short, and you need it urgently now, so I can only go to another time and space to customize it, so the price will go up. In addition, it also comes with a skill "Speed Gain (Elementary)". If used, it can better help you complete the task... Of course, you can also choose not to. Customizing a raft only requires 20 units of wood and 5 silver. Unit, or even more, if you build one yourself, you don’t need to consume any system resources..."
Note 1: Regarding the task of collecting data, I believe that no matter what arms or buildings are created, the empire system cannot be created out of nothing! Therefore, players (which can also be said to be time travelers) must collect physical information about existing arms and buildings and feed it back to the empire system, so that the empire system can produce or build based on this information.
Note 2: The dhow skill "Speed Gain (Elementary)", because this ship has been transformed by the imperial system and optimized the sail and cable system, it can increase the speed by 20% compared to other ships of the same type under the same wind and ocean current. The speed can be regarded as a novice protection provided by the empire system to Kang Lin.
