Chapter 2

Why did you only watch the promotional video and not come down to play it yourself?

Fortunately, not long after, he activated a "Tech Gacha System."

This system allows for drawing technology by obtaining influence points, at 160 points per draw, with a pity system at 90 draws. The pity guarantees high-tier technology.

Furthermore, there are two different card pools.

One is the standard pool, where the technology that can be drawn is highly random.

Anything from a "sweeping robot" to an "antimatter bomb" could potentially be drawn.

Previously, the best technology Lin Qi drew from the standard pool was the "Water Drop."

Relying on this technology, he rose from an ordinary background to a space station on the Azure Planet, became a staff member there, and even later nearly became the acting station master.

In short, the standard pool is very luck-dependent; the upper limit is unknown, and the lower limit is so low it's nearly useless.

The other is the limited pool, which can restrict the drawn technology to a specific worldview.

But it requires plot influence points to draw.

And the acquisition of these points is obtained by interacting with specific characters and creating some kind of influence.

Currently, this limited pool is the Doraemon world.

Technologies like the Bamboo-Copter, Anywhere Door, and Four-Dimensional Pocket were all drawn from this pool.

Until now.

The plot influence points Lin Qi has obtained are much fewer than standard points.

Because there are very few specific characters!

Over twenty years have passed, and the specific characters, or rather plot characters, that Lin Qi has met do not exceed ten.

Additionally.

What makes Lin Qi feel a bit annoyed is that this technology system doesn't just draw technology; there are also some consumables, and it even includes the technology for certain items, which is then instilled into his mind upon being drawn, allowing him to understand it directly.

In other words, just drawing it isn't enough; he might still have to build it himself.

Which means after drawing it from the pool, it might not be directly usable and converted into combat power.

The benefit, though...

Is that it can be mass-produced, or even magically modified.

For example, the Anywhere Door technology Lin Qi obtained; the full version's transmission distance even exceeds ten light-years!

Because this is the military version!

2. Two-way Foil? It's just so-so

As everyone knows, Doraemon is a cat-type childcare robot.

The machines it takes out are all civilian versions, and even cheap models at that.

Within the same worldview, besides the civilian version, there are of course military versions.

Which are higher-tier versions.

Naturally, they will have more exaggerated effects.

For example, Doraemon's Anywhere Door has a transmission distance of within ten light-years.

But the military version starts at ten times that!

After obtaining this technology, as long as there are enough materials, Lin Qi can build them in batches!

And the one he half-sold and half-gave to Qingque is actually lower-tier than the civilian model; Lin Qi added quite a few restrictions to it, so it can only transmit within the Luo Fu.

Of course.

This still exceeds the vast majority of curios.

For example...

The space station's teleportation toilet?

Or for another example...

The Omniscience Bag?

From what Lin Qi understands, the people of the Boshixue Society seem to still be dedicated to making the Omniscience Bag a true "storage bag," which is to connect to an infinitely vast independent half-plane, rather than the opportunistic super-distance folding technology.

By comparison, even just the test version of the dimensional pocket has already realized the Boshixue Society's pursuit.

However, Lin Qi doesn't care about these things.

What he cares about is how much more is needed to do another ten-pull.

【Standard influence points: 1700】

【Plot influence points: 520】

"The plot influence points are still far off, but the standard points are enough..."

"Draw!"

"Saving them is useless anyway."

It's just the standard pool; Lin Qi draws whenever he has a ten-pull, without any hesitation.

The next moment, the gacha screen flashed in his mind.

The moment it flashed, Lin Qi couldn't help but be stunned.

Was there a golden light?

【Brain Domain Expansion Injection (Blue) x3】

【Body Strengthening Injection (Blue) x3】

【Pineapple Bluetooth Headset Full R&D Technology (White)】

【Ballpoint Pen Steel Ball Mass Production Technology (White)】

【Heavy Fusion Engine (Purple)】

【Two-way Foil Manufacturing Technology (Gold)】

"Not a pity draw..."

"But it also produced gold?"

Lin Qi's expression was strange.

First, ignore those six injections.

It's not that they are useless, but he has already taken so many injections that he's almost developed a drug resistance.

By comparison, he wants the formulas for these two injections more.

Or an enhanced version.

Then there are the "Bluetooth headset" and "ballpoint pen steel ball mass production technology," which can clearly be ignored.

These two technologies, except for indigenous planets that haven't connected to the Star Rail, probably no planet would need them.

"The heavy fusion engine doesn't have much use either."

"But if I had my own planet, maybe... I could install it on it as a big toy."

"I'll ask Yelena when I have time to see how many credits a planet costs."

Looking at the information for this purple item, Lin Qi was thoughtful.

【Heavy Fusion Engine: From the Wandering Earth world. This engine can cause the large amount of silicon element contained in rocks to undergo fusion reactions to obtain more surging energy, and even push a planet!】

As for the final golden item...

【Two-way Foil: From the Three-Body Problem world. A piece of two-dimensional space encapsulated by a special force field; after unfolding, it can cause nearby three-dimensional space to collapse into a two-dimensional plane!】

"It's actually this?"

Lin Qi's expression was strange.

He didn't need to look at the description to know the effect of the Two-way Foil.

He also knew its power.

The term "dimensional reduction strike" comes precisely from this.

It's just a pity...

This is the Honkai: Star Rail world.

If it were in another world, Lin Qi would exclaim "awesome" after drawing the Two-way Foil.

But here, it can only elicit a sigh.

"Two-way Foil? It's just so-so."

"Still need to practice!"

Although he hasn't played the Honkai: Star Rail game, he has traveled for over twenty years since arriving, has been to the Herta Space Station, visited the First Truth University, browsed the Great Library of the Boshixue Society, and even lived at the company headquarters, Pier Point, for a period of time.
