Pirates: How many divisions does the Five Old Stars have?

Chapter 116 Comprehensive upgrade
Shurima.

In the secret base in the suburbs, the retainers of the Ma Qiao family are having a meeting.

This is a specially reinforced underground fortification.

The hot sun above the desert is completely isolated, cool and comfortable.

At this moment, in the hex-style empty space, the retainers of the Macho family are divided into left and right sides according to tool people and combatants, as if they were ministers of the ancient court.

Looking at these children who he raised with handfuls of gold coins, Ma Qiao felt relieved.

After this big live broadcast event, Ma Qiao's account balance reached an astonishing 95 billion.

There are 95 billion at a young age, do you dare to think about it?
For the use of these funds, you must make a good plan.

Of course, the first thing to ensure is the input of working capital from the Big Bird consortium.

After all, some time ago, the capital chain on the company's account was so tight that the workers could only eat salted fish and rice for three meals a day.

If these guys are not allowed to eat enough, how can they have the strength to drive screws with peace of mind?
In the world of Pirates, food is almost equated with power.

Boss Ma Qiao swiped his pen.

The employees of the Big Bird Consortium are all my brothers. If I eat meat, my brothers must at least have a drink of soup. If I eat chicken, I must at least have a pinch of feathers in my mouth. My consummated brothers must at least listen!
Ma Qiao explained to Ruiz that from today onwards, the food standard of the workers on the Da Niao Kang assembly line will be 2/3 of that of the marine soldiers in the Marine Vanduo headquarters, and it is necessary to ensure that every brother eats and drinks well.

Ruiz wore glasses, and carefully wrote down the instructions of Ma Qiao's boss in his notebook.

At this time, Timo, an important chief engineer of production technology of the Big Bird Foundation, raised a problem that needed to be solved urgently.

That is the breeding and feeding problem of mobile phone bugs.

The little big bird wandered around the basement of the tavern. No matter how it was expanded, it could no longer meet the growing scale of production.

Moreover, he is a short man with short hands and feet, and he is really too busy.

Timo suggested that now is the time to find a new breeding base for phone bugs and recruit some breeding workers.

This is indeed a problem.

Unless Marjorie can control the entire Whiskey Mountain, the space of Wuzhi Mountain alone is too small.

It is more suitable as a weapon processing factory for life masters.

Planting mushrooms to cultivate phone worms belongs to the semi-extensive farming industry.

Such aquaculture must require a huge space.

There is enough space in Shurima, but raising snails in the desert is indeed unreliable.

After thinking about it, the only suitable place might be Nami's hometown, Cocosia Village.

Not only the climate conditions are suitable there, but also the dark parts and roots of the sixteen branches can be used as umbrellas.

However, Ma Qiao felt that it was not safe enough to put it in the East China Sea.

The current situation in the East China Sea is treacherous, even if the world government is slow, it will definitely respond.

Ma Qiao estimated that the agents of the CP organization were already on their way to the East China Sea.

The CP organization is an espionage organization directly under the jurisdiction of the world government.

Marjorie didn't know much about them either.

I only know that from CP1 to CP9, CP9 is the most mysterious.

And CP0 is their superior organization, known as the strongest shield of the Celestial Dragons.

Of course, now, the main force of CP9 is in Qishui, investigating the whereabouts of Pluto's drawings.

There is a high probability that they will not come to the East China Sea.

But other levels of CP are still very possible.

After all, there are members of the CP organization lurking beside the big news, Morgans.

With the growing influence of the Big Bird consortium, it will be a matter of time before the CP organization targets it.

Although the core of production is actually the mushroom growth liquid that only Teemo can prepare, and the phone bug hybrid transgenic technology, even if the CP organization can steal it, it is difficult to copy it.

But this kind of statement must be believed by others.

Anyway, Ma Qiao judged others by himself, and he would not believe such nonsense unless he got it and studied it for [-] to [-] years.

All in all, the breeding and breeding base of the big bird phone bug is the core secret of the big bird consortium's core secrets, and it must be 12 times careful.

So is there any place that is little known and isolated from the world, and where there is still a certain amount of labor?

The answer is already on the horizon.

"The expansion of our Big Bird Consortium has no boundaries, even above the sky!"

Marjorie set the tone for understanding.

In the world of Pirates, apart from the most well-known sea routes of the four seas in the southeast, the north, and the west, there are actually two unknown sea areas.

They are the Baihai Sea formed by emperor cumulus clouds at an altitude of 7000 meters, and the Baibai Sea above an altitude of [-] meters.

Sky Island is located on the White Sea.

And like the land composition on Qinghai Sea, the empty island is not a monolithic one, and there are still many different islands.

But there's only one place that has the soil you need to grow snails...

That is the ancient city of gold washed up into the sky by a huge ocean current, Shandora.

Of course, this is only Ma Qiao's preliminary plan.

Today's Shandora has become the island of gods "Apayado".

That anti-human and anti-social element of Enilo is entrenched there.

Almost all Pirate fans agree that the defeat of this guy, Enilo, is completely due to his appearance too early and Wang Lufei's invincible protagonist's halo.

His true strength is also a mystery.

But it seems to be very easy to beat him.Because even if his lightning has tens of billions of volts, it can't penetrate rubber.

So in theory, as long as Ma Qiao makes all his retainers wear thick-soled rubber work shoes, they can be immune to the lightning damage of Enilo.

Of course, all of this needs to be tested.

In addition, even if the sky island is captured, how to establish a connection between the sky island and the ground seems to be a problem.

We can’t use octopus as a parachute every time we deliver goods like Wang Lufei and the others.

Or like Kaido, engage in free fall?

This is obviously unrealistic.

Fortunately, the great inventor Heimerdinger put forward his idea in time.

That is to build the Hex Warp Gate.

In the game, when the refreshed dragon soul is a Hextech dragon, there will be a pair of Hex transition gates on the map, and the hero can transfer from one gate to the other corresponding gate.

In reality, this kind of jump gate can be realized through Hex technology.

But Heimerdinger said that he is already involved in the biological research of the giantization of the phone bug and the industrial research of the Shurima photovoltaic power plant, so he really does not have the energy to complete the large project of the Hex transition gate independently.

He needs help.

For example, his good friend, Jess, the guardian of the future, and his good friend, the mechanical pioneer Victor, who fell in love with Jess.

They are brilliant scientists and inventors, proficient in hex technology.

Although the two have a little difference in philosophy, but in terms of serving the master, everyone's goal is the same.

Regarding the recruitment of tool people, Ma Qiao's current attitude is that as long as it is useful, the more the better.

Because it's really a bargain.

Even if all the more than 150 heroes are recruited, it is only more than 100 billion Baileys.

For Ma Qiao today, this is no longer an unattainable goal.

It is not the tool man but the combatant who really spends money.

The improvement of the level and the synthesis of equipment all increase exponentially according to the Finacci wave sequence.

To equip a combatant with entry-level Shichibukai-level combat power, at least two or three billion Baileys are needed.

Theoretically, this little money is not as good as directly buying Qiwuhai's head. . .

Of course, this is only theory.

There are many people in the world who can spend 50 billion Pele, fifty Nami's hard work for eight years is enough.

But there are only a handful of people who can remove the white beard's head.

Compared with training fighters, recruiting tool people is really affordable.

However, although the recruitment of tool people does not cost money, these guys are not relentless when applying for scientific research funding.

If it weren't for the loyalty of these retainers who were exchanged for money, Ma Qiao would even wonder if there were guys who were good at protecting justice in his team.

But there is no way, the poor rely on mutation, and the rich rely on technology.

Since he chose to take Piltover's hex technology route instead of Zaun's biochemical mutation flow, the investment of massive scientific research funds is unavoidable.

After discussions, or in other words, bargaining among the heroes, after a zero-sum game, Ma Qiao divided the 75 billion funds into three parts.

One is about 20 billion, which is used for the daily operating expenses of various subsidiaries of the Big Bird Consortium.

20 billion sounds like a lot, but in fact, there are more than 2000 workers in a single company, and the per capita budget is less than [-] pele.

It's not even as much as the protection fee that Aaron charges the villagers of Cocosia every month.

Of course, Aaron set the price indiscriminately just by talking nonsense.Ruiz of the Big Bird consortium will plan carefully, carefully evaluate the performance of employees, and use this batch of funds reasonably.

The second part, 35 billion.

This is the exclusive research and development funding for the Hex Jump Gate.

In fact, the amount Heimerdinger initially reported was more than 170 billion Baileys.

Marjorie finally brought the mad scientist to his senses by giving him two big pussies.

35 billion is already the bottom line.

After all, this is a high-tech equipment that involves space warping.

Marjorie was very thankful that he hadn't had time to recruit Jess and Victor.

Otherwise, if these three science freaks asked themselves to ask for funds together, it might not be possible to spend 35 billion.

In the end, the remaining 40 billion Baileys in the third part were used as exclusive funds for the improvement of team and individual strength.

Although, just like Big Mom doesn't need to reward Homiz for meritorious service, Moria doesn't need to rank zombies, Ma Qiao actually doesn't need to consider the feelings of heroes.

But under normal circumstances, Boss Ma is still very humane.

For example, veteran combatants like Han Bing and Galen were promoted to level nine by Ma Qiao in one battle, and their main skills were raised to level five.

Any skill will undergo a qualitative leap as the level increases.

Just imagine, a lord W, Galen who has the fifth level [Courage], how manly it would be!
It's just that level nine heroes are too expensive to be popularized by everyone.

You must know that it takes a full 2.26 million Baileys to upgrade a hero to level nine.

Of course, apart from the two veteran combatants Galen and Han Bing, there is another hero who has undoubtedly been promoted to level nine.

That's Tamm, Lord of the Rivers.

There is nothing to say about this, Tam is Macho's boss's bodyguard, dedicated assistant, full-time driver and royal chef.

From ancient times to the present, no matter whether it is Chinese or foreign, those who drive and cook for big leaders are all confidantes, and they can't be treated badly.

And of course bodyguards need to be strong. If the level is low, the blood bar is not enough to block the hole of the gun.

After Tamm has been promoted to level nine, he has a level five [thick skin], which is used to block gun holes and block bullets, which is really great.

Apart from these three level nine heroes, the other combatants have more or less improved a little.

This time, Tuqi, the source of the plague, who was shining in front of millions of spectators, had his level raised to level seven.

He is now the colonel of the headquarters, and he must have the ability to convince the public, at least not too much different from the general colonel of the headquarters.

Of course, Ma Qiao reckoned that if Tuqi was a seventh-level magical outfit, it shouldn't be a big problem to stand up to Smoker.

The question is how can there be so many god costumes for him?
Under Fiona Bochi's law, the cheapest thing is the recruitment of heroes, followed by the purchase of skins, followed by the improvement of hero levels, and the most expensive thing is the synthesis of weapons and equipment.

With the support of lack of equipment, Tucci's sneak attack opened up. If Smoker can't be dropped in a wave of seconds, there is a high probability that it will be dangerous.

But Ma Qiao didn't intend to put Tucci in danger frequently.

Occasionally, it is not so strange to bring the dead back to life once in the world of pirates.

But if you do frequent sit-ups...

emmm...

Seems reasonable too.

But no matter what, Guada Lixia, in order to avoid unnecessary doubts, it is better to minimize the number of times Tu Qi takes the lead.

Speaking of returning from the dead and surviving a catastrophe, there is another hero whose blood bar has been emptied this time, and that is the card master Drizzt.

He was shot by Ben Beckman at point-blank range and died instantly.

Fortunately, Drizzt was wearing a mask at the time, and he was not a well-known figure in the Navy Headquarters like Twitch.

So it doesn't matter if he quietly resurrected.

And this kid was also a blessing in disguise, and was included in the combatant rank by Ma Qiao, replacing the increasingly busy rune mage Ryze.

Drizzt is also now promoted to level six.

Of course, Ma Qiao wouldn't admit it, the reason why he spent money to upgrade Drizzt's level was because his flying card hand was cooler, and his big move was more convenient to use, so he was very greedy.

In addition, it was also inspired by the fact that Jesus broke the handcuffs of Bakihailou stone one kilometer away.

Ma Qiao also spared no expense to raise the level of the dramatist Jhin to level six.

Not only that, but the playmaker also obtained the first offensive equipment in Ma Qiao's gang - the rapid-fire cannon.

+20% Critical Strike Chance
+7% movement speed
Energizing: Moving and attacking will generate a [Energizing] attack.

Sharpshooter: Your 【Energy】attacks deal 120 bonus magic damage.In addition, 【Energy】Attack gains up to 35% additional attack distance.

In the game, of course, no one plays the first piece of equipment of the red scarf Jhin and directly exposes the artillery.

After all, the basic damage of artillery is relatively low, and the panel attributes are not enough.

But in actual combat, the rapid-firing artillery that can increase the attack distance is undoubtedly a very good sniper equipment.

Moreover, the life master himself is accustomed to using firearms, and the quick-firing cannon is the most convenient weapon for him. With a little improvement, it can be used as a natal weapon.

Of course, this is not to say that the life master cannot be equipped with swords, bows and crossbows.

Reflected in actual combat, this type of alliance weapon can be transformed into something similar to a tattoo, which can be attached to the user to directly exert its attributes.

It's like Marjorie often wears shirts and underpants, but it doesn't mean he doesn't wear a life-saving costume for himself.

In fact, the reason why it is said that the quick-firing artillery is the first large offensive item of Ma Qiao's gang is because Ma Qiao has already assembled a complete set of defensive equipment for himself.

Resurrection armor.

Those with naked Easter armor are all chickens.

Ma Qiao understood the truth, but he still decided to equip himself with this piece of equipment.

In theory, a stopwatch or golden body is a better life-saving equipment.

But, uttering this sentence proves that you don't understand the horror of the silver powerhouse at all.

In our silver, the golden body is used to show victory at the enemy's fountain.
