Chapter 499: Dinner Xiaohong
Wang Zhifan spent a total of just over an hour traveling around the world. During this period, the messenger of the Hirsch civilization took him through the entire ring world in a flying saucer at super-light speed. He would also stop briefly at some key locations, such as the capital of the ring world section. Detailed introduction.
Finally, he was taken to the boundless space far away from the ring world, where he saw a super battleship the size of the Hirsch civilization's planet, and a man-made black hole and white hole conjugate giant structure, which greatly increased his knowledge.
Generally speaking, he understood that the Hirsch civilization is an extremely developed advanced civilization, which is at least one level higher than the technological level on the urban planet. If he pulls a standard military fleet here to the urban planet world, I am afraid that it will soon be over. You can unify a large star field by force.
But this does not mean that the urban planet world is completely inferior to the Hirsch civilized world. For Wang Zhifan, the urban planet world is still important to him, even more important than the current Hirsch civilized world.
There are two main reasons.
First, his status on the urban planet is higher and more stable. Although the position of captain is far from being a single one, he can mobilize a large amount of resources for his use at any time, or carry out some large-scale projects, as long as he does not act randomly If you lose the position of ball captain, you can continue to reap benefits.
On the other hand, in the Hirsch civilization, his status is just that of an external envoy. Although he is respected and valued by the Hirsch race, in theory, he can use their power to cause big events, but as long as he is not planning to make a one-time deal, You must think twice before you act, try your best to have a good relationship with Hirsch Civilization, and do not feel comfortable being the captain.
On the other hand, it is because the Hirsch civilization and the carbon-based human civilization to which Wang Zhifan belongs are too different.
They are a type of non-human silicon-based civilization, and their needs in all aspects are completely different from humans.
For example, they live a thousand times longer than humans, do not need to eat, and can withstand strong radiation from red dwarf stars. Many technologies developed from this are completely different from the routes humans have taken.
The urban planet is very different from the earth planet, and the main race is almost a replica of high-tech humans.
The things Wang Zhifan needs, such as spaceships and mechas that he can control, can be purchased and used directly on the urban planet without any unnecessary customization, which is extremely convenient.
Therefore, even if it is certain that the Hirsch civilization is more developed than humans on the urban planet, Wang Zhifan cannot give up on the urban planet. He plans to treat the Hirsch civilization as a trump card to be used at a special time, while the urban planet is a regular supply of technological products. positioning.
After visiting the extremely huge ring world, Wang Zhifan left a few non-technical items as gifts for the Hirsch civilization, then said goodbye and left for the next destination.
The second place he visited was a world he personally liked very much, Gaia, which can be called a natural paradise.
When he appeared on the Universal SIII frigate, he saw Yilin and Yali eating and working in the cab.
I saw two hard-working maids holding unknown sea fish in one hand and chewing on it, while the other hand was packing the biological samples just caught by the drone so that he could take them away when he came over.
"Ilin, Yali, there's no need to be so busy! You have to rest when it's time to rest!"
Seeing this, Wang Zhifan stepped forward to stop them from continuing to work, let them eat in peace, and personally controlled the spacecraft to dock on a nearby island.
However, the two succubus maids quickly stated that they did not need to rest, saying that they were monsters and that this amount of labor was just relaxation for them.
"Master, we are doing this to improve work efficiency so that we can complete the exploration mission as soon as possible."
Erin, who has snow-white skin, said this.
"Master, the warehouse is almost filled with the samples we collected. It's time to consider changing to a larger warehouse."
The wheat-skinned Yali reminded him that the internal storage space of this frigate was a bit insufficient.
"Irene, your exploration mission is long-term, there is no need to rush it."
Wang Zhifan first advised Yilin not to be too impatient, and then answered Yali's question:
"Yali, there is no need to look for a bigger warehouse for the time being. Starting today, you and Yilin will have two days off and return to the previous villa to rest for two days."
He made this decision on the spot because he felt that he had neglected the feelings of the two maids and treated them too much as tools. He should give them some free time to rest.
As his words fell, the two maids suddenly looked slightly stunned, and then showed a look of joy on their faces.
"If we go back to rest, that means we can watch various food programs on TV and try to make dishes for the master?"
Yali first thought of this aspect. It can be seen that her favorite thing when she was in the previous villa was watching TV and learning to cook.
"There are also training tasks assigned by the master before. We can continue to study the grimoire during the break."
Yilin remembers everything Wang Zhifan told her, even the projects that were temporarily suspended.
"Haha, it's up to you, but the main reason I give you a holiday is to let you have a good rest. Don't make yourselves more tired."
Wang Zhifan couldn't help but shook his head and smiled after hearing this.
Then he took back all the drones released for exploration at the console, and together with Yilin and Yali, packed all the samples collected so far, and selectively transferred them to his space ring along with those in the warehouse.
During this process, similar to what he had encountered before, he discovered many Gaia star specialties with special effects, such as herbs that could save lives and heal the wounded, animal meat that could strengthen the body and bones, and strange mushrooms that made people fall into strange hallucinations.
Among them, the particularly rare type will also trigger panel information, making it almost impossible for him to miss every opportunity to make small progress.
"Can you add 2 points of physical fitness when you eat the stone fruit for the first time? Take it! The sour fish plum has the effect of improving the mental attributes many times? Then get a few more! Can the thigh meat of the square-headed frog be eaten to increase the speed? Barbecue it directly on site... "
So, Wang Zhifan started another feast of treasures on Gaia. Not only were most of the food delicious, but each item also allowed him to obtain substantial improvements. It can be said that most of the other players on the planet could not even dream of it. A beautiful thing that I dare not even think about.
This also led to a slight increase in his basic attributes, all of which exceeded the 200 mark due to the bonus effect.
[Physique: 248. 】
[Power: 258. 】
[Agility: 202. 】
[Spirit: 203. 】
It can be seen that compared with before the feast, his average attributes have increased by about 5 points, which means that the total of the four attributes has increased by more than 20 points.
If you have to rely on dungeon upgrades to obtain such an improvement, if you don't get some attribute growth rewards at settlement, it will definitely be a very long process, and it is impossible without a dozen dungeons.
But for him, who has the rich natural resources of Gaia, he can easily obtain them by just spending some time searching. His advantage over other players is extremely obvious.
“Gaia planet, city planet, virtual phase planet, ring world, they are all resource-based rewards in essence.
Although it is not a piece of equipment and cannot be put on a player and play an immediate role, as long as the player develops it a little, it can produce long-term benefits. In the long run, it will be more useful than a piece of equipment alone. "
As a person who has owned at least four resource-based worlds, Wang Zhifan has a lot of experience in this regard, so he will visit each world regularly, even if there is no substantial gain at first.
After enjoying the delicious and rare meal, Wang Zhifan closed the hatches of the frigate anchored on the island and put it into automatic protection mode. Then he took the two maids back to Earth Star Xia Kingdom and his villa in Dongjiang City.
Originally, he was planning to go to the urban planet immediately, but he felt that the maids worked too hard and collected too many biological samples from Gaia, which could hardly be loaded in the spaceship warehouse, so he decided to let them come back for a holiday. It is impossible to research so many new things in a short period of time.
"Perhaps I should find two sets of AI systems on the urban planet, one for my own use and one for automatic piloting of the spacecraft, and purchase a few more professional investigation spacecrafts, so that the two maids do not have to fall into endless duplication of work. ”
With this thought in mind, and after confirming that the two maids had returned to their familiar daily lives in the Dongcheng Villa, Wang Zhifan immediately went to the urban planet to do business.
The place he arrived at through the City Planet Pass was still the captain's office on the 1111th floor, and he happened to meet his secretary, Miss Catherine, working here, which was a very coincidence.
"Your Excellency, Mr. Qiu Zhang, I have been waiting for you for a long time. The latest report from the Biological Research Center is that some samples have suffered unexpected losses during the research process. The number of samples needs to be increased to continue to advance the research progress."
As soon as she saw Wang Zhifan appear, Catherine reported the latest situation to him.
"What kind of accidental loss is it specifically? Are there no security measures at the research center?"
Wang Zhifan replied with a calm expression after hearing this, feeling that this might be some trick being done by the research center.
"According to statistical results, 62% of the lost samples were caused by experimental physical processes, 25% were caused by problems with the incompatibility of the culture environment, and the other 13% were stolen.
At present, the thieves have been caught by the Investigation Department, but the relevant samples have been transferred outside the star field, and it may be difficult to recover...
I'm very sorry, Mr. Ball Director, this is a mistake in our work. I have arranged to comprehensively strengthen the security of the research center. "
Catherine gave a report and explained her corresponding countermeasures.
Wang Zhifan picked up the report and looked at it, and realized that the bioengineering project he initiated had been targeted by someone who was interested. It was an expected thing, but it happened a little early.
"Tell the research center that the biological samples I brought are very precious. If they are lost, it will be difficult to replace them. There is nothing I can do at the moment. Since the samples are lost, relevant personnel will be concentrated on the intact parts."
He then rejected the research center's request, which also caused those people to hit a wall in their attempts, extinguished their attempts to obtain more repeated samples, and in disguise told them that they could not interfere with his own resource channels.
"Okay, Mr. Ball Commander, I will convey and execute your orders."
Catherine agreed without any objection, which showed that as a close confidant, she understood how difficult it was for Wang Zhifan to bring those samples.
Wang Zhifan then took out the sample he brought this time from the space ring, handed it to her, and reminded:
"This should be the last batch of new samples in the near future. It is expected that the supply will be stopped for some time. Remember to let the people below handle it well and don't lose the things again... Otherwise, I will replace all the incompetent people."
"Okay, Mr. Ball Captain, I promise that similar accidents will not happen again!"
Catherine heard the serious warning in Wang Zhifan's words, and couldn't help but condense her expression and make a guarantee in person.
"Haha... don't be nervous, Catherine, no one can avoid accidents, as long as they don't happen all the time."
After relaxing the atmosphere, Wang Zhifan then talked about other things, which was also the most important purpose of his visit this time.
"Catherine, I need an AI assistance system that can run offline for a long time, preferably one that is good at combat information analysis and electronic system cracking..."
He communicated specific requests to his secretary for input from senior local officials.
But what he didn't expect was that before Catherine in front of him could answer, a phantom of a little girl in red appeared in the office, made up of the light emitted by the instruments in the corner, and answered first:
"Your Excellency, Mr. Qiu, please allow me to interrupt your conversation with Miss Catherine, because I meet all the requirements you mentioned. I can self-copy an offline version with a database to help you.
Whether it’s ship combat, mecha combat analysis, or the latest quantum system cracking, my abilities are at the forefront of all artificial intelligence in the urban planet..."
The speaker was Xiaohong, the AI in Captain Wang Zhifan’s office. Wang Zhifan had had a brief cooperation with it. His impression was that the AI was very good, but later on it was never put to use. Unexpectedly, it found an opportunity and recommended itself. .
"Oh? I remember Xiaohong, aren't you an office-assisted artificial intelligence? Do you also know how to fight?"
Wang Zhifan couldn't help but feel a little interesting after hearing this. An AI that stayed in the office actually had the ambition to go out and fight, which immediately aroused his interest.
The secretary next to her, Catherine, did not doubt Xiaohong's self-recommendation, and explained to Wang Zhifan in a very positive tone:
"Your Excellency, Mr. Qiu, Xiaohong is indeed not bragging about himself. As a dedicated AI for your office, it was designed and developed by the Information Research Institute with business professionalism and breadth in mind.
Auxiliary office work is indeed one aspect it is good at, but analysis of ship and mecha combat, information cracking and anti-cracking are also at the highest level. Others such as life and health maintenance and anti-biological espionage detection are also iteratively built according to the highest standards..."
"Okay, since you are so strong, Xiaohong, let me try it first."
Wang Zhifan agreed directly after listening to a few words, and decided to let Xiaohong, the AI in his office, try this position.
He believed that the AI equipped by City Planet for the dignified captain would not lose to its counterparts outside, and its loyalty would be more guaranteed. After all, it was originally an AI designed for his personal use. (End of chapter)
