Chapter 37 NPC Mercenaries
In the Doomsday World game, there are two types of NPCs that can be recruited.
One is the basic NPC survivor recruited through the survival radio station.
They are basically unable to participate in the battle. They can barely use weapons to hit zombies. There is a high probability that they will be killed by zombies.
The other type has the skill of firearm proficiency, can use various basic firearms, and has higher character attributes than ordinary survivors.
The players are commonly known as: ‘mercenaries’.
However, recruiting ‘mercenaries’ is not free.
Fang Heng needs to spend some survival points for this.
Riding a mountain bike, Fang Heng came to the doomsday camp.
"Hahahaha! Fang Heng! You are here! I was just talking about you to my friends. I heard that you have completed the shelter?"
"You are so well informed."
"Hahaha!"
Vettel looked very happy and laughed.
“Of course, in our industry, first-hand information often means wealth!”
“By the way, do you need help? I have a lot of talented people here who want to I want to recommend it to you, but you understand.”
Fang Heng blinked at Vettel.
“I understand, I need to spend survival points to recruit, right?”
“Don’t worry, I will give you the lowest price, but there is one thing, if they unfortunately die in battle, you But you have to pay an extra amount of survival points as a pension.”
“I understand.”
Fang Heng shrugged.
This aspect about pensions has been criticized by players in major game forums.
Too expensive!
Not to mention players, even large guilds will be seriously injured if a few 'mercenaries' accidentally die in the early stage.
For ordinary players, they would never consider recruiting mercenaries. ’
The risk is too great. If one of them dies, they will lose all their accumulation in half a year.
Currently, Fang Heng believes that the prison's defense capabilities can easily resist zombies.
But what about the players?
In a zombie apocalypse game, the biggest threat is human survivors.
Fang Heng needs to recruit ‘mercenaries’ to improve the prison’s defense capabilities.
This is something that zombie clones cannot currently do.
Fang Heng didn't want to deal with the players.
This is too risky.
He prefers to trust NPC mercenaries who will not betray.
"Vettel, is there anyone here willing to come to my camp? I will pay them."
"Of course."
Vettel waved his hand, and a suspended recruitment list appeared in front of Fang Heng.
There is a list of about fifty survivor mercenaries, all at levels 1-5.
Fang Heng scanned it roughly.
Among them, the three highest-level mercenaries are LV: 5, and they also have LV: 5 firearm mastery.
Fang Heng remembered seeing a post in an official player forum, which said that LV: 5 was the highest level for a mercenary.
Don’t skimp on safety! If you want to buy, buy the strongest one!
Fang Heng selected three mercenaries.
"Are you sure you want to recruit them? Recruiting a survivor requires 6,000 survival points, a one-time buyout."
"If he unfortunately dies in the battle, you need each Spend an additional 3W survival points as compensation”
“I’m sure”
[Tip: You spent 1.8W survival points to recruit 3 survivors, and they will report outside your shelter in 3 hours].
Okay.
After purchasing three mercenaries, Fang Heng’s savings during this period were also consumed.
There are less than 500 survival points left.
"Very good, I will tell them immediately, and they will report to your shelter in three hours."
"Thank you."
Fang Heng waved his hand and said to himself that it is really expensive!
The number of 'mercenaries' that can be recruited in the doomsday camp is limited, first come, first served.
Currently, he is the only one in the game who has taken the lead in establishing a shelter, so there is no competitor to compete with him for mercenaries yet.
Once the players develop, high-level mercenaries will also become a resource that will be occupied by large player guilds or game companies.
Fang Heng said smoothly: "Vettel, if you meet a stronger survivor, remember to introduce him to me at any time."
"Okay, it seems you are short of people?"
< br>Huh?
Fang Heng was about to leave when he heard this and raised his eyebrows.
This question made him smell the mission.
"Quite lacking, Vettel, we are good friends. Do you have any advice for me?"
"Hahaha! That's natural. You are one of my best friends. After all, you have always been They all take care of my business."
Vettel laughed.
He leaned over and whispered in Fang Heng's ear.
“Have you forgotten the Dark Knights I mentioned to you before?”
Fang Heng immediately recalled it.
Yes! Dark Knights!
Hidden tasks.
Going all the way to a city hospital to find the antidote for the T virus, right?
“Let me tell you secretly, after joining the Dark Knights, you can recruit people from the Dark Knights.”
Vettel secretly revealed the news to Fang Heng.
"Believe me, the Dark Knights are all top-notch players with top-notch strength. It will definitely not be a loss to recruit them."
Fang Heng narrowed his eyes.
Is there such a thing?
Is there a higher level 'mercenary' than LV: 5?
He had no information about this before!
Sure enough, even the so-called official game forum cannot be trusted.
It also said that mercenaries at LV: 5 are the most powerful!
The real secrets are in the hands of the big guilds.
Fang Heng cursed in his heart and quickly lowered his head to think.
It's not an option to leave the Dark Knights mission alone forever.
Now that I have time, it’s time to go to the city.
The sooner the better, seize the opportunity before other players have established a shelter.
It’s best to recruit all the powerful ‘mercenaries’!
One step first, every step first!
Fang Heng's heart became hot again.
This trip to town is a must!
However, it is still very dangerous to enter the town at this stage, and he still needs to make some preparations before that.
Fang Heng raised his head.
"Vettel, show me your sale list again..."
"Of course."
Fang Heng opened the list and looked at it carefully.
There is a high probability of encountering alienated zombies in the town, and he desperately needs the ability to protect himself.
Shotgun, capable of causing great damage at close range.
The disadvantage is that it requires a strength value of 6.5 to barely use it. A strength value of 8 points can be used perfectly, and a strength value of 10 points can completely offset the impact of recoil.
Fang Heng took a look at his attributes.
Player: Fang Heng.
Level: 9.
HP: 118/118.
Stamina value: 100/100.
Mental value: 100/100.
Energy value: 83/100.
Strength: 6.8.
Swiftness: 6.8.
Physique: 6.8.
Will: 5.
Perception: 15.
Comprehension: 5.
Enough, barely used.
I want it.
Small explosive charges.
It is an extremely effective prop whether it is used to attack zombie groups or to destroy buildings.
I want it too!
First aid spray.
You also need to prepare a copy of life-saving things...
Fang Heng roughly estimated that purchasing these equipment requires at least 4W survival points.
You have to think of a way to earn some points first. (End of this chapter)
