Chapter 469: The True Gameplay of the Game, Base Vehicle Deployment?! (Seeking Monthly Votes)

~6 min read 1,189 words

Very obviously, the major reward for inheritance degree breaking through 15% and reaching critical qualitative change was not a Silver Treasure Chest, but the unlocking of the "Base Vehicle."

Even so, the Silver Treasure Chest was quite tempting.

Feng Mu gazed at the three-dimensional projection hovering in his palm, a glimmer of realization in his mind.

This entity called the "Base Vehicle" was not a physical vehicle, but a highly conceptualized virtual model.

Its form in the projection constantly shifted, sometimes appearing as a futuristic armored vehicle, sometimes transforming into a cube constructed from data streams.

And in Feng Mu's mind, a line of prompt surfaced:

【Warning: The Base Vehicle core is in an unstable state.】

【Suggest immediate deployment.】

"Interesting."

Feng Mu narrowed his eyes into slits, his five fingers lightly penetrating the virtual "Base Vehicle" on his palm.

As his fingers stirred, the "Base Vehicle" projection silently transformed into—towering walls, soaring surveillance towers, grim iron railings...

Textures gradually emerged on the walls, the contours of the surveillance towers formed inch by inch, even the metallic reflections of the ventilation pipes were clearly visible.

A miniature prison was slowly being constructed in Feng Mu's palm, every detail perfectly corresponding to the Second Prison in reality.

Spiderweb-like red veins surfaced on the projection base, slowly spreading along the building structure.

"Heh—, so that's how it is, this is what deployment means..."

He suddenly tightened his fingers, eerie green light flickering in his eyes:

"Just like Parasitic Evil Ritual, except the Evil Ritual parasitizes inside the human body, while the Base Vehicle parasitizes inside... buildings?!"

Feng Mu slowly closed his eyes, a flat map of the Nine Districts gradually unfolding in the depths of his consciousness, marking the current locations where the Base Vehicle could be deployed.

The entire area was shrouded in thick blackness, with only a few scattered spots flickering with faint light.

The most eye-catching and largest light area was the Second Prison, about seventy percent of its area glowing with faint golden light, but some corners remained unlit.

The extent of its bright area was nearly dozens of times the sum of the other three glowing areas.

And those three glowing locations were Douqiong Martial Arts Hall, of which only about one-tenth of the area was lit.

Blood Rose Bar—the old nest of the Blue Wolf Gang was instead glowing all over, crimson light flowing evenly across the building model.

And his current dwelling was the smallest in area, with less than a quarter of its area flickering with intermittent light.

As Feng Mu's consciousness touched these glowing locations, system prompts naturally surfaced.

Current identification, control completeness of deployable areas:

Blood Rose Bar 100% (fully deployed)

Second Prison 72% (partially missing deployment)

Current residence 25% (limit basic deployment)

Douqiong Martial Arts Hall 11% (extremely basic deployment)

Feng Mu slightly narrowed his eyes, some instilled information appearing in his mind.

Originally, these several bright areas above were judged by the system as "belonging" to his sphere of influence.

In other words, these buildings all qualified to become carriers for Base Vehicle deployment and parasitism.

The degree of control over them was closely related to the completeness after Base Vehicle deployment. The more comprehensive and thorough the control, the closer the deployed Base Vehicle's form would be to perfection, and the greater the effectiveness it could exert.

Not only that, the area size of Base Vehicle deployment also directly determined the potential space for future function unlocking and upgrades.

A bit like a strategy game, you only have more territory to build more "barracks" and spawn more troops.

A tiny hovel of a few dozen square meters, even if allowed to deploy a Base Vehicle, how many troops could it spawn inside?

"So, if I could control the entire Nine Districts and then deploy the Base Vehicle, what a sight that would be..."

Immediately Feng Mu shook his head self-mockingly, driving away this unrealistic fantasy.

Such an idea, while maximizing potential, was a bit putting the cart before the horse by pursuing too perfect a start.

After all, deploying the Base Vehicle was for "conquering cities and seizing territory," not deploying the Base Vehicle to "conquer cities and seize territory."

Feng Mu's gaze locked onto the bright area of the Second Prison, an idea forming in his heart:

"Decided, it's the Second Prison, coincidentally, just one last step away from it completely falling under my control, then, using it to deploy the Base Vehicle as my nest would be most appropriate."

Then, the last key question lingering in his heart remained:

"After deploying the Base Vehicle, what exactly will I get?"

He didn't expect the system to reveal the answer in advance, after all the system had no customer service, bad review!

And besides, no matter what, he would definitely find a way to deploy the Base Vehicle.

By then, he would naturally know the answer.

Unexpectedly, just as Feng Mu was about to close the system interface, a line of pitch-black text suddenly exploded in the center of his vision, its edges emitting an ominous blood-colored halo.

Below the text, a strange icon gradually materialized—a nest emblem woven from countless wriggling flesh buds, its surface covered with jumping crimson veins, as if alive, expanding and contracting.

Feng Mu's pupils suddenly contracted, he immediately recognized this icon—it was the logo icon of the login interface of the game 【Destiny】.

The system actually acted out of character, giving the answer in advance:

【Deploy Base Vehicle, you will obtain the Blood Flesh Nest.】

【Special Prompt 1: This nest will be reconstructed as the second core base of 【Destiny】.】

【Special Prompt 2: You will unlock the Organization Module.】

【Special Prompt 3: You will activate the management authority of 【Destiny】!】

【ps: Destiny, your master is back!】

Although these descriptions still carried the system's elusive vagueness and did not unreservedly reveal the final physical object.

But just these few short yet shocking prompts were enough to make Feng Mu hold his breath instantly, unprecedented surging waves rising in his heart.

"Interesting, the system being so eager, does this mean the Base Vehicle is the core gameplay of this game?"

Feng Mu's thoughts flashed like lightning, and a startling guess gradually took shape in his Nao Hai—every step of Inheritance Degree from 1% to 15%, those seemingly independent system rewards, might all just be steps laid down to ultimately unlock the Base Vehicle.

It was like a strategy game mechanism: the player must first deploy the base core before unlocking the building tree, producing units, and occupying the map.

Those initial resource rewards were nothing more than ensuring the player could smoothly take this crucial first step.

"So all my previous actions were actually creating an account, logging into the game, obtaining 'Commander' qualification, and then……"

Feng Mu's breathing grew increasingly rapid; he could clearly feel that he stood at a major turning point capable of changing everything.

Everything before seemed merely a strict "qualification certification," and now……

Feng Mu exhaled deeply, muttering:

"I am the one who truly obtained the qualification to inherit Destiny, and Destiny's game is what will truly……begin?!!"
