Chapter 773: Constructors and Trials
At the same time, a small incident occurred during this process.
Once when Master Raphael was traveling in an airship, he was robbed by bandits.
Fortunately, the security force of the Black Ring Chamber of Commerce was strong enough. After a short battle, several unnamed seventh-level bandits were all captured by the airship guards.
Out of humanitarian spirit, Her Royal Highness Paola, the 25th Princess of the Black Feather Kingdom, bought back their freedom at the cost of 250,000 gold coins and a seventh-tier rare item for each person. Her noble character is truly admirable.
Princess Paola described Raphael, the head of the Black Ring Chamber of Commerce, who was willing to release the "bandits", as "a pure businessman". . ….….When the Black Ring Chamber of Commerce in Anvis was helping the Federation, the great plan implemented by the Speaker of the Federation was gradually fermenting its impact on the Federation.
The most obvious thing is that after the widespread acquisition of low-level constructed humanoids, the quality of life of ordinary people has indeed improved a bit.
For civilians who were originally responsible for farming, breeding and other occupations, they now only need to lie at home and remotely control the work of the constructed humanoids through the constructed headband.
Since the basic attributes of constructed humanoids are higher than those of ordinary people and they will not get tired, even if their movements are slightly stiffer than normal people, they are still very good farming tools.
And most importantly, it was very safe, and there was no need to worry about being harassed by low-level monsters that occasionally sprang out of the forest. Even if there were a large number of constructed humanoids nearby, they could find a way to reasonably kill the monsters that attacked the farmland and earn a small amount of extra money.
As for why the constructs can keep functioning without ever being recharged, the civilians don't care. In fact, most of them believe that because the constructs have no flesh and blood, they can move forever without eating.
However, as civilians got used to controlling constructs to go out and work, new troubles also arose.
Originally, ordinary people had very weak personal strength and no redeeming qualities, so usually except for some armies that would use them as cannon fodder, no one cared about them in other situations.
But when constructed humanoids became popular, civilians with constructed humanoids and a certain level of combat power suddenly became popular.
Although under the strong pressure from the top leaders of the parliament, the local nobles dare not blatantly recruit large numbers of civilian constructs as cannon fodder, some black forces such as some thieves gangs in the society do not care about this.
They gathered their own professionals, forcibly captured some civilians into the dungeon, and forced them to control the constructed humanoids to go deep into the Warcraft forest, using them as bait to hunt dangerous Warcraft, or even as cannon fodder to rob passing caravans and consume the guards' strength.
Since the main body is controlled, even with the constructed humanoids, the civilians dare not resist and can only obey orders.
As time went on, many people found their lives to be even more difficult after receiving the free constructed dolls than when they did not have them.
At this moment, the construct headband suddenly gained a new function.
【Body Construction】
Are you tired of your fragile flesh and blood body that gets cold, hungry, bleeding and injured? Select confirm and replace it with a brand new constructed body immediately! Eliminate all the pain and instantly have the fighting power of a formal professional!
When this feature first appeared, most users were skeptical and did not dare to choose it at will.
However, those civilians who were controlled by the bandit gangs and had nowhere to go chose to confirm it as soon as possible. After all, for them, the situation could not get any worse.
So, with the emergence of the first batch of people who tried it out, other people who were interested soon found out the specific implementation process of this function.
After the user of the construct headband selects and confirms, his or her consciousness will be completely uploaded to the construct network. The unconscious body will be retrieved by a special person sent by the Federal Parliament and placed in a safe place.
After choosing to upload consciousness, the construct network will by default put the consciousness into a new ownerless construct humanoid. As a new body, the movement will feel the same as when the construct humanoid was controlled by the construct headband before.
However, this replacement is not free, but requires twenty points of 'Construction Network Points'.
People who change their bodies can choose to accept various jobs posted by the Construction Network to earn points for repayment, or directly exchange points with real currency. The exchange rate is one gold coin for one work point, and equivalent materials are acceptable.
If the person who changes his body has enough savings in reality, he can also redeem more points to transform the constructed body and directly obtain higher-level combat power.
Even if you feel regretful about changing your constructed body and want to return to your original human body, you can also do it, but you still need points to redeem it.
Ten points can be exchanged for one day of return to the human body, and two thousand points are required for permanent return.
For those who chose to construct their bodies, a private name called "constructors" soon became popular among the people of the Federation.
Their combat power is equivalent to that of the lowest-level professionals, but they have a very special feature. Because their main consciousness is located in the construct network, simply destroying their construct body will not cause their consciousness to dissipate.
As long as they pay a certain amount of construction points, they can get a new body again.
In a sense, this is somewhat similar to the status of the players.
At the same time, since the construct body can be instantly strengthened by adding various modules, the combat effectiveness of these constructs actually increases very rapidly.
The most direct impact of this situation on Avis is that the number of constructs coming to the Black Ring Chamber of Commerce hoping to transform their bodies is increasing. The most popular transformation module is the flight module, followed by night vision and thermal perception. … . ….When the situation in the Federation became increasingly chaotic, Avis, who was in the Gloria Empire, did not pay attention to it for the time being. He was currently planning a test operation against the Magic Council.
Avis had no idea what was going on behind the scenes of the Continental Magic Council's continued silence, nor was he sure how much information Stargazer had revealed to the other two speakers.
So, after some consideration, Anvis formally sent an invitation letter to Albins, inviting him to come to the city of Karlas in the name of a friend, and the time was set at two o'clock in the afternoon three days later.
If the Stargazers were extremely defensive towards him, then Vernika, the speaker of the [Ring of Space and Time] who was Albins' teacher, would certainly not agree, and might even intercept his letter in advance.
However, what surprised Anvis a little was that after the invitation letter was sent out, Albins responded quickly as usual: he was free that day and would go to the meeting on time.
