Anime: Fight Sukuna at the beginning?.

Chapter 25: Others are forming a team to fight zombies, and you want to go into the factory to screw screws?
Entering the factory was the mission route Fang Yi chose for himself.

[Principles of Mechanical Design and Manufacturing Lv4] This unpopular skill that only I know will play a unique role in this task line that I have opened up.

When Fang Yi learned that this mission was to the world of the Iron Fortress, he began to think, "How can I further amplify my advantages and stand out from the crowd of reincarnations?"

The answer is of course very simple.

"Compete in a different field, choose the right track, and your advantage will come from knowing what others cannot do."

If you are the best singer among the pancake vendors and the one who is most knowledgeable about law, you will have an advantage.

Instead of comparing overtime hours on the construction site, comparing looks with idols, publishing original books in the light novel section at x point, etc., you compete with others in these volume-within-volume tracks.

Among the many reincarnations who have mastered lv4, lv3 [Basic Sword Skills] and even higher levels, Fang Yi is only lv4. The sword skills that he mastered in less than a few hours obviously do not have a prominent advantage.

Among this batch of reincarnations, there are many who entered the space early and have extra points subsidies.

Your [Basic Sword Skills] can be upgraded to lv4, and I can also upgrade to lv4. We all upgrade by adding points. Is your lv4 better than mine?
Moreover, just because the knowledge and techniques are instilled into one's brain doesn't mean that one can apply them skillfully.

I have practiced boxing for twelve years, and it seems that Chen Cheng has also practiced swordsmanship for twelve years. In a warrior training center, it is really unthinkable to use one's weaknesses to challenge others' strengths.

In addition, among these reincarnations, there are imposters who he wants to kill. Fang Yi is not planning to reveal too many of his abilities, such as his many skills.

He wasn't going to show [Black Flash] and [Reversal Technique] to a living enemy.

Now that various reincarnations have formed a group, if Fang Yi takes this traditional quest line without exposing many skills, it is equivalent to destroying his own martial arts and giving up his own advantages.

Fang Yi was not interested in gaining the favor of the head of the Shifangchuan family through the samurai route, and in winning over some samurai at the same time, such as the samurai [Jiuzhi Laiqi] who had good combat power in the original work.

He has no interest in changing the plot to save the boss, but is somewhat interested in controlling his daughter [Shifangchuan Acorus].

According to the development of the plot, the head of the family died on the road with a group of samurai soon after Kabane entered the city, and Kabane was killed by the armored train of the Iron Fortress.

It is a very inefficient and stupid practice to increase the friendship level of a dead person, who has no skills to acquire and no possibility of discovering any tasks.

From the very beginning, Fang Yi had no intention of following the rules to join the guard or become a samurai of the Shifangchuan family and serve as a dog.

He wanted to "enter the factory".

The main quest rewards several basic skill scrolls, including [Basic Melee], [Basic Swordsmanship], and [Basic Shooting]. They will increase Fang Yi's current strength to zero, and at most they can be used to sell points in the space after settlement.

If you join the factory and become a steam smelter, you can make full use of [Principles of Mechanical Design and Manufacturing lv4] and get something more valuable than a few basic skill scrolls.

That is the technology that the protagonist Ikoma has not yet fully developed, which is the jet bullet that can greatly enhance the lethality of Kabane.

With jet bullets, you can easily accomplish the feat of scoring at the speed of light with just a steam gun.

After the fall of Xianjin Station, to put it bluntly, everyone in Hell had endless Kabane to kill, so there were plenty of opportunities to score points.

During the conversation with General Shifangchuanjian, the [Supernatural Gravity] talent was triggered, which brought a good basic friendship, cleared some obstacles in the original plan, and allowed his plan to progress faster.

When the train entered the station, Fang Yi also discovered some differences from the original plot.

The process of lowering the drawbridge to allow Juncheng to enter Xianjinyi was very rigorous, and there was no carelessness in the original plot where the gate was opened wide, leading to the fall of the post station.

During the communication with the head of the Shifangchuan family, it was obvious that he was full of hope for the future and did not have the heavy worries in the original work. The post in front of Xianjin Station was not swallowed by Kabane.

So, there's obviously still a buffer period before the main storyline, or perhaps the space has been modified. I need more information to know what exactly it is. I can ask the butler of Sifangchuan later.

Based on the main tasks released in the space, it can be confirmed now that a period of time has been reserved for the reincarnations to explore and learn.

During this period, and living in the Sifangchuan Mansion, there will be a chance to increase the friendship level of Sifangchuan Changpu in advance. This woman will be very useful in Fang Yi's plan.
-
Night, Sifangchuan Mansion.

After wandering around the mansion several times and still not "accidentally encountering" Miss Sifangchuan Puchang, Fang Yi finally gave up on contacting her at this point in time.

As long as they meet, Fang Yi is confident that even if the basic friendliness after the talent is triggered is not very high, it can be quickly improved through the use of words.

It is much easier to increase the friendship of a woman who is still a little weak and inexperienced in the world than to increase the friendship of a man who has controlled the fortress for many years.

Shifangchuan Ayame is a good claim that can win people's hearts. Even one of her relatives is working in the super-large fortress [Kongōkō] where the Shogun is located.

It's a good connection, and what's more convenient is that she can also control it.

The failure to successfully "hunt" the Sifangchuan Puchang today did not dampen Fang Yi's confidence.

After all, there is a long way to go, and there will always be a chance to meet her while living in Sifangchuan's house. Fang Yi is not in a hurry to meet her on this day.

General Sifangchuan still values ​​me a little bit. He is very sincere in giving me accommodation and providing me with good food.

I don’t know if this is a show or if he really values ​​himself, but it doesn’t matter.

Fang Yi was not prepared to spend all his time studying the mind of a dead man. In the plan he had just updated, this boss was bound to die. At this stage, he was determined to focus only on his own business, which was to get that technology.

After finalizing the plan, Fang Yi returned to his residence and found Disma cleaning his flintlock in the courtyard.

His actions during the day suggest he's a "disguiser." It's necessary to take this opportunity to find out his target.
-
Disma has a low level of education and is not good at speaking. When he was communicating with General Shifangchuan, his mind was blank and his answers came out almost word by word.

When General Sifang Chuanjian further doubted his noble identity, he was very grateful to Fang Yi for helping him out and took the opportunity to admit that he was his follower.

When he heard that Fang Yi was going to observe the work of the steam smelter and learn how to make guns, he rarely took the lead and said that he wanted to go too. Of course, it was not that the robber really wanted to enter the factory.

His target is a steam smelter named Ikoma. The first part of the "Scavenger" series of tasks issued by the space to Disma to unlock his own talents is to take Ikoma's life.

Disma's usual routine was to simply tell him where his target was and then complete the task. This time, the only information he received was a name, leaving him somewhat bewildered.

So when he heard that Fang Yi wanted to join the factory to work as a steam smelter, he inexplicably expressed his desire to join the factory as well, hoping to find and kill this target.

Only when he came to his senses did he start to worry about how to complete the task without affecting Fang Yi, and how to explain his behavior to the companion who generously lent him points?
The space mission warned itself not to directly disclose the mission details to others.

Disma was thinking when he heard words coming from behind him.

"I know your mission, but please don't cause any trouble until I get what I want."

Disma's muscles tensed instantly, his left hand subconsciously picked up the gun, and his right hand simultaneously drew out the dagger, ready to fight.

Fang Yi looked at the gun pointed at him, but he was not panicked at all.

Because he knew that in three minutes, this robber, who was most likely a "disguiser", would become his right-hand man.
