Chapter 47: Late Invitation
Chen Fang received family education since he was a child and was accustomed to looking at problems from the perspective of superiors. In his opinion, the essence of contradiction lies in his different positions.
After all, the purpose of the Federation is to counter-terrorism, rather than to act as someone's protective umbrella. After they enter, they will inevitably intensify the conflict, which is inconsistent with the interests of the chaebol.
Once the conflict intensifies, there are two possible situations. The federal army is in glory and will soon withdraw from the place due to huge expenses. At that time, the chaebols will bear the crazy revenge of the pirates and will eventually be forced to give up the fat piece of the Kado Blue Planet. If the federal army wants to stay, unless the chaebols bear the legion's expenses, it is really better to respect the pirates from the cost.
The purpose of the chaebols is to eliminate the troubles of pirates at the lowest cost and keep their business maintained. After weighing the trade-offs, it is much more cost-effective to find mercenaries.
After fully understanding the local environment, Chen Fang quickly proposed a plan to deal with small-scale raids by pirates, long-range snipers are more useful than heavy firepower.
The kind of battle does not use heavy firepower, and it is crucial to observe the enemy first. Snipers are stealth professions outside the team. In addition to providing long-range snipers, they are also equivalent to posts that can hide everywhere. An excellent long-range mecha can at least allow the team to avoid the misfortune of being raided.
"Excellent snipers are enough to help the team avoid the risk of being attacked by pirates, especially when the number of mechas on both sides is small, the threat brought by a hidden long-range sniper mecha can even prompt the pirates to make a decision to retreat." Due to Susan's reasons and the topic that aroused, Linni remained silent until then, and did not intervene in the conversation.
Regarding the use of long-range mechas, she coincides with Chen Fang's ideas. However, even if there is a clear idea, it cannot be implemented. It is not difficult to shoot accurately in a long-range mecha. The difficulty is how to hide. Due to the terrain and other reasons, the vision of the planet is inevitably limited. The distance between the sniper and the target cannot be too far. The mecha is not a mentally retarded bug. It can quickly sense the direction and even coordinates of the sniper. The speed of the mechas driven by the engine is faster than that of the sniper. It can kill the sniper in a moment. The melee ability of the long-range mecha is almost zero, which is a fatal flaw.
"I hope he can buy a fishman, or a mecha of the same type." Linni ignored the complaints of the Pili Bee and helped him make a choice very tactfully. Fishman naturally refers to a modified fishman. The same type of mecha does not exist on the list of mechas in the Mercenary Association.
Considering the financial crisis of Pili Bee, Chen Fang smiled faintly and suggested: "If you don't dislike it, you might as well use my previous one. You all know the situation of the mecha. I only bought it before the last mission. It can be regarded as a new machine, and it has not suffered any serious damage. It can be used after maintenance."
The advantage of private transactions is that there is no need for merit. After deducting the consumption of skill training and physical strengthening, the merit value of PILI Bee is already very small. Even if you find someone to help you modify it, it is difficult to assemble a satisfactory mecha. Such a proposal undoubtedly solves the urgent problem.
Linni knew that he was interested in helping her, but she was grateful but reluctant to show her feelings. She said calmly: "That's better. In terms of price, is it okay based on the cost you purchased at the beginning?"
Chen Fang thought for a while and said, "I originally wanted to take action on the fisherman, according to the recycling price of the sales office. This is fairer. I can't take advantage of my friends."
Linni had long guessed that he wanted to refuse and said in an unquestionable tone: "I know you are not short of money at the moment. I take the initiative to quote the price because I am afraid that you will pay too low. If you treat us as friends, please don't refuse. We don't want to take advantage of our friends. To be honest, the remaining merit value of Pili Bee is not much, and we are also worried about this matter. If you can buy a satisfactory mecha, you don't have to consume merit value. It's already a huge advantage."
Speaking of this, Chen Fang could only express his acceptance.
"My idea is to use heavy mechas as a restraint, to keep the assassination mechas in a hidden state, launch a surprise attack at any time, and the deterrence of long-range snipers may make ordinary pirates retreat." In order to cooperate with the modification, Linni took the initiative to express her ideas.
"Your combination is not weak, and the defect is still not a strong mecha, which leads to a lack of lethality. You should be very clear. With your damage output, it is impossible to end the battle quickly. Assassination mecha is unable to launch a threatening impact. At best, it is disruption. The enemy will unscrupulously impact the only target in sight. I am worried that the fire bull will not bear it." Chen Fang's analysis made Linni's originally cold face slightly hot.
It is a bit far-fetched to let the Fire Bull survive more than five minutes of battle, but there is no choice but to strengthen the defense of the mecha. After all, the Fire Bull's heavy mecha withstood the test of the Zerg. After being promoted to level 3, it not only completed the collision of the skilled Man Bull, but also carried out two physical enhancements, and the effects were not bad. These can give people some confidence.
In terms of assassination of the mecha, the last change was retained, and two restricted-level daggers that could only be purchased by installing two third-level mercenaries, which significantly improved the destructive power by one level.
Chen Fang only provided ideas, and the maintenance engineer could do this level of modification.
"Brother, go to Kadolan with us?" Before leaving, the Pili Bee finally couldn't help but make an invitation on her own initiative. Although it was a sudden incident, no one present felt that it was suddenly.
Chen Fang could see some clues from their several expressions of wanting to speak, but the invitation should be proposed by the team leader.
This invitation was beyond Linni's expectations. She refused to send the invitation because of her own knowledge. The current team could not keep a big crocodile. Besides, Chen Fang was in the limelight and was fighting with Susan, so she did not have to worry about not being able to find a high-quality team. What's the reason to stay? As a woman, she could clearly feel that Susan deliberately came with Chen Fang to demonstrate to her. What's ridiculous is that she actually cooperated and felt a little sour, especially when she saw the lipstick marks that were not obvious in Chen Fang's verbal argument, the strange feeling became even stronger.
Under the pleading gaze of his companions, Linni had no choice but to bite the bullet and admit that the invitation was a decision made by the mercenary group and it was real and effective.
Surprisingly, Chen Fang actually accepted the invitation, but hesitated.
Linni was going to ask something, but when she saw her companion's happy expression, she finally chose to remain silent. Since she accepted the invitation, no matter what she wanted to ask, there would be opportunities in the future. What she had to do now was to accompany Chen Fang to choose a mecha.
"It's you?" The old man at the counter surprised Chen Fang, as if he had seen a ghost.
