Chapter 706: Craftsmanship
"At least thirty credit points a day for free. Umbrella is becoming more and more inhumane."
“It’s really deep pockets.”
"Although all transactions are done with credits, you can do everything yourself. It doesn't mean you can't play without paying."
"I've been studying the lessons for those young wizards recently. It's really hard. If it were me in my senior year of high school, I'd have no problem with it. But now I just can't concentrate."
"Me too, but with the motivation of using magic, I can still hold on."
“…”
With the gradual release of Penglai settlement quotas, some real-life impacts of "Abyss World" itself have also emerged!
Now that the value of silver has risen, the purchasing power of credit points is also getting stronger.
30 credit points for free every day is more than what many people earn from working hard all day!
Indeed, many people are quite jealous and look forward to the popularity of this game.
While most people don't have a place, there are always a few lucky ones...
"As a lucky person who won the tester spot, got the right to buy a robot, and won the closed beta test spot for Abyss World, I feel like I have reached the pinnacle of my life. Unfortunately, the robot was paid for by the manufacturer, so it must be used for at least three years. Otherwise, I want to take the robot back to serve at home."
Shen Shi posted screenshots of his three places while lying on the bed, looking indifferent and sighing as he filmed a video.
Then he spoke again
"Okay, without further ado, I have to go play the game. Principal Qin and Big Pineapple have recently teamed up to create an Abyss Mineral Company. I have to take advantage of the closed beta to get my first taste of the game."
As he finished speaking, he had already logged into the game amidst all the comments of envy, jealousy and hatred.
Many people left speechless messages.
"How come one person gets all the benefits?"
"Take a breath of European air."
"Does he want to apply for a job at the 'Abyss Mineral Company'?"
"That should be the case. The boss of 'Abyss Mineral Company' advertises every day. Not only did he drag Young Master Qin into the business, he also brought in Big Pineapple. You know what, when I read his theories, I think that's what he meant."
"It feels wrong. Why do I have to work even when I'm in the game?"
"The pay is high, and the game is fun still get a high-quality deep sleep."
"That makes sense, but I still prefer fighting monsters."
"No, this game is very realistic and difficult. Anyone who has tried to kill monsters has suffered a huge loss. The penalty for death in this game is very severe."
"I remember that Big Pineapple said a long time ago that firearms are the best. Damn! They really confronted the 'Abyss Mineral Company'!"
"Yes, NPC weapons are too expensive, and the quantity is limited. It's a complete sandbox mode. If you buy too much, the price will go up. So the Abyss Mineral Company must increase its production capacity to bring down the price. New players can also make their first pot of gold with this."
"Make money through games, spend it through games, and once you part, you want to take it home..."
“…”
Accompanied by some teasing, Shen Shi also entered the game and returned to the lobby of the Silver Fortress along the road of the Novice Village. He saw Chongtian Yuling recruiting the first batch of players in the corner.
At this time, he was still standing there shouting about some of the company's benefits and welfare.
"...Brothers who have entered the closed beta test, this is a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity. Those who join now are all veterans, and they can start learning the craft the earliest. I have successfully obtained a set of manual equipment forging blueprints, as well as the most basic machine tool blueprints. As long as our skills are improved, we don't have to be afraid of facing a large number of new players even if we open the closed beta test or even the public beta test later. With the skills and techniques in hand, we don't have to worry about being eliminated..."
They attracted a wealthy man like Qin Xiang and a big gaming anchor like Jiang Bo, and got enough publicity and exposure for free, plus Chong Tian Yuling kept shouting in the hall of the birthplace.
At least for players who want to pursue a career in life , this will be their first thought.
Actually, Shen Shi came here for the same reason.
Seeing the dozen or so people gathered behind Okita Yuling, Shen Shi felt that his judgment was correct.
When he arrived nearby, someone immediately contacted Shen Shi individually and explained the benefits and obligations clearly.
There are almost no mandatory constraints, but in order to avoid doing things that are not right for others, an electronic contract must be signed online for a period of at least three years, with the right to renew the contract first upon expiration.
However, the main constraint of electronic signing is the non-competition aspect. As long as you are not switching to other competing companies or studios, even if you don’t want to do it anymore and want to take risks, you just need to give notice in advance.
After all, it is a game, and the three giants of the mineral company are fully aware of the players' thoughts and it is impossible for them to come up with too rigid constraints.
In reality, we are helpless in the face of some agreements, but in the game we are not even afraid of death. Being too rigid and harsh may have the opposite effect.
Anyway, considering the universal habits of the Original World Company and the Umbrella Company, the three founders also decided not to pursue maximizing profits, but more to pursue "influence", so Chong Tian Yuling is a little confident in making concessions.
The reason why an electronic agreement has to be signed is mainly to prevent capital from suddenly coming in to "burn money" after the internal or public beta begins, and poaching people with subsidies that do not pay attention to returns.
"It's OK. The agreement is simple and clear, and there are no fixed tasks or quantifications. It's pretty good..."
After fully understanding the welfare benefits, Shen Shi felt a little surprised. It was even better than he had originally imagined!
There are no indicators. After all, it's a game where the more you work, the more you get. It's just like those life players who like to use their skills to build things. This can bring fun to many people.
Even if you don’t want to be a life player halfway and want to go out for adventure, you can pick up a gun and rush out at any time, without any restrictions!
"I signed it. ID: Gentleman of Zaun."
"When you exit the game, you will need to use your real-name authenticated phone to complete the subsequent steps of the electronic contract. But now we can get familiar with the environment and process. It's best to find your favorite one. You can only stay with it for a long time if you like it."
Afterwards, Shen Shi followed the old man and began to familiarize himself with some of the processes, only to discover that although this was the 'Abyss Mineral Company', it actually covered a very wide range of areas.
From raw material collection, refining, forging, to manufacturing.
Those who like to go out can go mining. Their boss has marked out several rich mines nearby. All you have to do is find the containers and dig the mines and bring them back with good luck.
As for smelting, it seems that they are waiting for Big Pineapple to invite students to come over and engrave some smelting arrays.
It is even possible to add some enchanting effects to the mold later!
If he had to say what he likes, Shen Shi actually feels that he should like magic more.
But looking at his own 10 points of mental strength and the headache he felt from listening to a few recorded courses, he still felt that as long as he could learn a little buff, it would be enough.
"I have 10 points of mental power. Can I focus ?"
Shen Shi thought about it and chose his own direction.
There is no doubt that mining is the least technical and difficult. You may need some experience and corresponding skills, but it is too easy to get started.
The same is true for forging and manufacturing. They said in their publicity that they have even obtained the drawings of elementary machine tools, which shows that they have great ambitions.
Real robots have already demonstrated the gap between human power and machinery, and even if the game is filled with super soldiers with powerful attributes, it would probably be difficult to fill the gap.
In this case, mastering a craft that is difficult to replace is the best choice...
