Chapter 184: Gold-Tier — [Wolf’s Den: Commander System]
Click—
The Golden Civilization Chest opened, and Yu Yuan looked inside with full anticipation.
"This is..."
Inside the chest appeared a rhombus-shaped crystal full of technological flair.
Beneath the crystal were five items resembling injection guns.
[Ding... High-value supplies discovered!]
[Golden-tier item discovered — Commander Chip Module Set]
Yu Yuan picked up that rhombus-shaped crystal, preparing to examine the so-called [Commander Chip Module Set] carefully.
However, a prompt message different from the others appeared before Yu Yuan.
[Detected 'Faction' expansion module set. Absorb and integrate?]Yu Yuan immediately chose to absorb and integrate.
With his selection, the crystal in his hand suddenly melted and disappeared into Yu Yuan's palm.
On the Virtual Light Screen — within the [Faction] page.
Besides the option labeled [Jackal], another page named [Commander System] appeared.
Opening it, Yu Yuan saw an icon for [Commander: Yu Yuan] (editable), and below the icon, five branches appeared.
Each branch was blank.
Yu Yuan immediately thought of the five injection gun-like items from the treasure chest.
And when the thought to inquire arose, an introduction to the [Commander System] also appeared on the light screen.
After reading all the content, Yu Yuan fell into contemplation, but the light in his eyes grew increasingly bright.
"Commander System..."
A concept he had once fantasized about but rejected countless times took shape in his mind.
The reason he had rejected it before was that he originally thought it impossible to achieve, or at least, the possibility of achieving it at that time was slim.
It was a bit too fanciful.
But now, he seemed to have found a way to realize this concept.
[Commander System]
Can designate creatures implanted with the [Commander Subordinate Chip] as [Members], add them to the Commander System, and place them under the unified command and dispatch of the [Commander].
The [Commander] has the authority to view, call, lock, synchronize frequency, and connect with [Members].
[Members] have the authority to call, transmit, and request connection with the [Commander].
The [Commander System] ignores distance limitations, cannot be detected, and ignores world barriers.
When the [Commander Subordinate Chip] is injected and implanted, it conducts a will assessment on the implantee. The implantee must remain fully conscious, have a complete understanding of the authority rules after implantation, and show no significant resistance for successful activation.
When the [Commander] initiates frequency synchronization with a [Member], the [Member]'s consent is required.
The viewing authority allows the Commander to understand the [Member]'s specific situation, physical state, and mental state. But what Yu Yuan valued most was the trust index.
60 trust is [Passing], 70 is [Good], 80 is [Excellent], and above 90 is [Die-hard Loyalty].
When a [Member]'s trust index falls below 60, it triggers a warning from the [Commander System], alerting the Commander to a potential crisis and the possibility of the [Member]'s betrayal.
This [Commander System] was clearly different from the [Jackal] team.
The subjugation of the [Jackal] team, due to the [Conqueror's Token of the Strong], ensured their complete and utter loyalty to Yu Yuan after being subdued.
There was no possibility of betrayal.
An item like the [Conqueror's Token of the Strong], which forces conquest, is rare and not something one can just seek out.
It was precisely this concern about the uncontrollability of human hearts that made Yu Yuan always maintain some reservations when dealing with Carmen and others.
Even with Mona, he always kept a trace of vigilance and wariness.
This trace of vigilance and wariness wasn't about not trusting them, but rather Yu Yuan's reverence for the unpredictability of the human heart.
After all, partners who trusted each other one moment could easily become bitter enemies the next because of an accident.
This was the wasteland world; he had to be on guard.
And now, the appearance of the [Commander System] completely resolved his lingering concerns.
Yu Yuan also adjusted some of his previous plans, revealing even greater ambition.
"The City Shadows title route, the direction of its advancement is likely related to the Thug faction!"
Yu Yuan opened the virtual map, and his gaze finally settled on District 1 in the eastern city.
"Black Shield Police Department... It's time to meet with Carmen, and Mona too..."
Yu Yuan finally reviewed the just-modified plan once more, revealing a look of relief.
This [Commander System] arrived just in time; many of the obstacles in the previous plan were now easily resolved.
Yu Yuan thought for a moment and changed [Commander: Yu Yuan] to [Commander: Wolf Den·King], officially renaming the Commander System to [Wolf Den·Commander System].
With the Golden Civilization Chest fully opened.
Yu Yuan checked the time. After 5 hours of trial, plus the busy work after returning, the time had already reached 2 PM.
He immediately set about organizing the spoils of war without delay. The harvest from this Wasteland Trial was quite substantial and indeed required some effort.
"Speaking of which, I wonder how Carmen's operation is going!"
District 15, Songshan Park.
Rumble—
Five modified wasteland pickup trucks slowly came to a stop.
Over twenty Raiders got out of the vehicles, their faces expressionless as they looked at the somewhat uneasy crowd opposite them.
In the crowd were over a dozen bound survivors and scavengers. They were all lying on the ground, with bruises clearly visible on their bodies and faces, obviously having been beaten before.
"Who's Broken Hand?"
A Raider asked impatiently.
"It's me! It's me, sir, I'm Broken Hand!"
Broken Hand immediately responded, stepping forward to stand before this Raider.
"How many in total?"
"Sir, thirteen in total, all in good health..."
Broken Hand said, making a thumbs-up gesture to indicate the goods were reliable.
The Raider spat and gave a meaningful glance to someone behind him.
Immediately, three people walked towards the group of survivors, starting to check them one by one.
Seeing this, Broken Hand offered an awkward smile.
"Sir, about that bounty of ours... hehe..."
"Don't worry, you'll get your share. We keep our word!"
The Raider said as he walked to the back of a pickup truck, opening the truck bed to reveal it piled high with supplies.
"Rest assured!"
Seeing so many supplies, Broken Hand's eyes went wide with greed!
Yet, under the Raider's knowing, half-smiling gaze, he could only take two steps back, looking towards the Raiders checking the goods.
His eyes gleamed with delight.
Dale was among the crowd at this moment, roughly grabbed by the hair by a Raider and pulled backwards.
The pain made him instinctively tilt his head back. Immediately after, a hand pinched his chin, prying his mouth open to check his teeth and overall health.
Just like selecting livestock!
Dale's heart sank into despair.
"It's over! Falling into the hands of the Thug Prison now, it seems it's really over!"
But just as this thought arose in his mind.
Thud—
A bloody hole had already appeared in the head of the Raider in front of him. The face, falling backwards, still held an expression of impatience.
A continuous burst of gunfire followed.
Rat-a-tat-tat—
"Enemy attack!"
