Chapter 103 First sight of Promes Fortress
As soon as the white light flashed, Yang Hui, Huang, Wang Rumei, Graham, Setsuna, Lyle, and Tielia found themselves in a completely unfamiliar place. It looked like they were in a huge building, full of It has a sense of future technology, but everything has not been started yet, only the weak emergency lights are flashing.
"Mavis, are you here?"
[Yes, Commander, welcome to Promes Fortress. 】
A pleasant female voice sounded around them. As soon as she finished speaking, the lights suddenly turned on. The bright light made everyone close their eyes. After opening them again, they could really see where they were, as if they were a few centuries in the future. It looks like an office hall, with pure white metal walls outlined with golden lines, grand, luxurious and elegant. There are a large number of projection panels placed on the walls and on the floor, but all kinds of garbled characters are flowing.
At the same time, a phantom of a woman appeared in front of them, with long pure white hair reaching her waist, an unknown style of white tights outlining her curvy body, a pair of fiery red star eyes burning like passionate flames, but her face Without any expression, he was like an iceberg, a world of ice and fire.
"Are you Mephis?" Yang Hui asked.
[Yes, first meeting, Commander, and everyone, I am Mephis, the intelligent terminal AI of Promis Fortress. 】
"Tell us about the current situation of Promes Fortress."
【Everyone, follow me. 】
Everyone followed Mavis's projection and walked out of the hall, and the sight they saw shocked them.
"This...is this Promes Fortress?"
"Hello? Are you kidding me?"
"Is this the mezzanine of space?"
"The battle was too tragic."
When they saw the scenery outside the door, they were shocked at first, and then a word came out of their hearts at the same time - OMG!
Because they found that except for the intact building and floating land in the area where they were, there was nothing. Even the land only extended a few steps from the door. What was left was an abyss-like void, surrounded by There are a large number of rubble ruins scattered around, as if the entire continent has been smashed to pieces by an inexplicable force.
"Isn't this... nothing?" Yang Hui complained with his mouth wide.
[Yes, Commander, I said that except for the central hall, the rest of Promis Fortress self-destructed. 】
"But this is too..." Yang Hui wanted to complain a few times, but finally gave up. Rather than waste his time complaining, he might as well do something serious, "...forget it, how do I rebuild other areas."
【follow me. 】
Mavis took everyone back to the central hall, took the innermost elevator directly to the top floor, and introduced them to the detailed functions of the central hall.
[The central hall is the core of Promis Fortress, similar to the role of a command tower. The first floor is the service hall. Fortress members can receive tasks, submit tasks, contribute resources, exchange resources, etc. on the first floor. The second floor is the service hall. The first to fifth floors are the strongholds of various departments, such as the intelligence department, staff department, general combat conference room, etc. The sixth to ninth floors are the dedicated ports and warehouses for commanders and senior fortresses, and the tenth to fourth floors are The twelfth floor is the high-rise living area of the fortress, and the thirteenth floor on the top floor is the commander's living area.
The living area is not limited to rooms. It is a small space that can be extended infinitely. The owner can decorate it according to his own preferences. Of course, except for the commander, all decorations require reward points. Details of reward points and additional tasks are also available. Commander upgrades the central hall and unlocks more functions to learn more about.
At the same time, the commander has the highest authority operation panel. 】
As he spoke, a huge holographic projection appeared in the empty room, which was Promis Fortress. The central hall was floating alone, but there were many plus signs around it, and there was also an upward arrow on the central hall.
"Huh?" Yang Hui clicked on the plus sign on the front of the central hall, and another panel popped up, with several options including production area, scientific research area, trading area, entertainment area, residential area, mining area, military area, and port. Each option corresponds to a construction opportunity and some unseen resource amounts.
Only then did Yang Hui fully understand what the mission rewards he had received were. It turned out that the opportunities to build and strengthen the buildings were all for Promis Fortress.
"What are these resources? What are their sources?" Yang Hui asked.
[The three resources are void gold, ether gas, and chaos crystal. 】
Upon hearing these three names, Yang Hui and others felt their heads swell. Is this something they can understand? Not to mention they don’t exist on Earth, I’m afraid these things won’t exist in other worlds, right?
Mephis ignored several people who acted like country bumpkins who had just arrived in a big city, and continued to introduce: [...Three kinds of resources can be harvested from the mining area. The amount harvested is related to the number and level of the mining area, and the construction opportunities and building enhancement opportunities are only Can be obtained from mission rewards. 】
Understand, that is to say, resources are secondary. The most important thing is construction opportunities and building strengthening opportunities. Therefore, you must do your best every time you perform a task in order to better develop Promis Fortress.
"So what the hell is this powerful sense of déjà vu?" Yang Hui lamented. He remembered some games he had played in his previous life. This model was almost exactly the same. He really wanted to ask if the founder of Promis Fortress was the same person. Like him, he is a time traveler from Blue Star.
"How should the fortress' high-level settings be set up?"
Mavis didn't say anything, but a new panel popped up in front of Yang Hui. He knew how to operate it at the first glance. This was almost the same as the union system of the previous online game, but it was more detailed. Under the commander, it was like The tree diagram generally extends, with a deputy commander, a chief of intelligence, a commander-in-chief of the fleet, a chief of staff...
“Are the candidates for these positions fixed?”
[The commander can make changes. 】
Hearing this, Yang Hui nodded, as long as the rules are not completely fixed. As the number of members in Promis Fortress increases, these positions will definitely not be enough. There are too many outstanding talents.
"Okay, now tell me how to get to other worlds."
[The interval between world tasks is one month. Commanders can enter the task world in advance. No matter how long the commander has experienced in the task world, the time of Promes Fortress will be fixed at one week. 】
"That is to say, no matter how long we have been in other worlds, it has only been a week since we returned to Promes Fortress, right?"
【correct. 】
"So how to determine the mission world?"
[Randomly selected from the database, and the current followers are also randomly selected from the commander's direct team. This will not change until the commander upgrades the central hall and unlocks higher permissions. 】
"ah!?"
This announcement made everyone dumbfounded. The personnel were randomly selected? Then why are they following? If you are unlucky and don't get drawn, won't you have to waste a week in Promes Fortress and then pray that you can be drawn in the next mission?
"Yang Hui, it seems that upgrading the central hall is a top priority." Huang said.
"Well, let's first understand all the situations clearly, and then have a meeting to determine the next step."
"Um."
Afterwards, everyone asked their doubts one after another, and Mavis was also very conscientious and answered every question in detail.
The most important issue is their lifespan. After all, they traveled to other worlds. Although only a week passed in Promis Fortress, they actually spent several years or even more than ten years. In other words, Yang Hui went to perform a mission. They may become old men when they come back, but the emperor and the others are still as beautiful as flowers, which is very embarrassing.
Moreover, rebuilding Promis Fortress is a big project and cannot be completed in a short period of time.
But they also got the perfect answer, that is, after becoming members of Promis Fortress, their age has been fixed. Children will only grow until they are 25 years old at most, and the elderly will also grow again after entering. Rejuvenate and enter the mission world. Although the physical age will also grow with it, it is only the appearance. Under the premise of ensuring that you will not die in battle or due to illness, even if you look like a centenarian, your body will still maintain the functions of your youth.
And they have also obtained their own panels. For example, Graham's MS driving is B-, Setsuna, Lyle and Tieria are all C+, and there are also some unique skills, such as Emperor's [Tactical Forecaster] - in It can speed up the operation of the brain when analyzing intelligence and making plans; there is also Wang Liumei's [Super Spy] - the chance of being discovered when performing espionage missions is greatly reduced, etc.
Although there are many things that I want to complain about, it is still a relatively reasonable method, and it can maintain youth forever. Huang and Wang Liumei, as well as the female members who will continue to join in the future, will not have any objections.
After understanding the necessary information, Yang Hui first set everyone's permissions. For example, the emperor directly gave it to the deputy commander, and Wang Liumei was the chief of intelligence. After raising several people to the highest permissions, he asked each of them to decorate their own rooms first. The meeting will resume in half an hour.
Naturally, Huang and Wang Liumei did not need a separate room. After asking Yang Hui for his advice, they happily went to decorate the new house together. Yang Hui stood in front of the floor-to-ceiling window and looked at the ruins and emptiness outside the window with emotion.
"Haha, I didn't expect that I would have such an experience. It was already very strange to be reborn in the Gundam OO world." Yang Hui shook his head and smiled bitterly, lamenting that things are unpredictable. He was originally just an otaku waiting to die, but unexpectedly traveled to Gundam OO. In the OO world, I found my favorite Gundam, found an excellent fiancée, and experienced passionate and bloody battles.
Unexpectedly, in a blink of an eye, he would be able to travel to more worlds, and be forced to take on heavy responsibilities.
"Mephis, why me?" Yang Hui asked. He did not believe that this was a random selection. If a commander with erroneous views was chosen, I am afraid that there would be no need for enemies to attack from other locations, and Promis Fortress would be destroyed. Become the devil's castle.
[The world where the commander was originally located was invaded by [insufficient authority]. The database was screened, analyzed and calculated. The commander is the most suitable candidate. The existence of Prometheus Fortress does not exist for a certain civilization, but for a certain civilization. It is the force that exists for the balance of all universes. 】
"Blue Star was invaded? So the white light I saw before..." That was Yang Hui's last memory at Blue Star.
[Just as the commander guessed. 】
"Okay, I have another question. What if...my mission fails, or if I become a villain?"
[If the mission fails, I will leave the commander and select test subjects again. 】
"Well, then I am really glad that I am a good youth who grew up under the red flag, but..." As he said that, Yang Hui called up the personnel authority panel and pointed out the option that Mephis had hidden before - Commander Successor.
"... Set Huang Li Norega as the Commander Successor. If anything happens to me, she will be your new commander."
[Completed. ]
