My Battleship Can Receive Infinite Upgrades Chapter 11
Advertisement
When others relied on luck and time to capture a alternate space's signal, open a alternate space battlefield and obtain source points.
The strength of Lin Dong's personal support system was reflected.
1 of the optional functions of his personal support system was to capture a alternate space's signal. Each time, 1 low-grade mineral crystal was consumed, the personal support system would be able to assist the Spark battleship to capture a alternate space's signal.
Most importantly, Lin Dong did not need to choose a good place to use the optional function!
When Lin Dong was piloting the Spark battleship, he would not be as miserable as the others. He would not need to deliberately find a good place and travel around in a small area in order to capture the signals.
It was fine for him to stay there for a couple hours. However, if he were to stay there for a couple months, he would be a little like a fool. In fact, he would even hope that the Goddess of Luck to help him.
On the contrary, Lin Dong did not need the Goddess of Luck. He could take the initiative himself and open an alternate space battlefield whenever he wanted.
It was significant for Lin Dong to have such a function.
As for the 2nd optional function, the double source points acquisition meant that it was easier and more efficient for Lin Dong to obtain source points.
Lin Dong was currently the 3rd commander of the Thunder Fire. The efficiency of obtaining the source points was 25%. However, by activating his 2nd optional function, he was equivalent to a 2nd generation commander.
With his 2nd optional function, piloting a 2nd generation battleship was equivalent to the 1st generation. Once Lin Dong possessed the 1st generation battleship, his rate of obtaining source points was double that of the other 1st generation commanders!
One step at a time, and Lin Dong would succeed. He would be able to bridge the gap and increase his combat power.
In the early stages, he had only used low-grade mineral crystals. It was not easy to obtain them, but the outcome was acceptable.
While Lorne was explaining, he was also observing Lin Dong. When he saw that Lin Dong's joyful expression, he knew that Lin Dong was excited.

In Lorne heart, he immediately understood that Lin Dong was beginning to imagine that he was the chosen one.
Every young man had such a fantasy. However, reality would teach them to lower their heads and admit that they were lacking.
"Brat, work hard and you'll succeed."
Lin Dong replied with a smile. He would not reveal even a tiny bit of information about the personal support system. It was fine if he was misunderstood.
Lorne softly sighed when he saw this. "You'll understand in the future."
"In the future, remember to maintain your concentration when you encounter a alternate space signal. Don't get to excited."
Capturing a alternate space signal and opening the battlefield did not mean that Lin Dong would have a smooth journey and randomly harvest the source points.
The Spark battleship would randomly appear within the territory of a different civilization after entering the alternate space.
According to the different combat power of the Spark battleship, the strength of the civilization that it faced each time was different. In order to obtain the source points, Lin Dong had to destroy that civilization. There was simply no possibility of peaceful coexistence.
This kind of battle between different civilizations was even crueler than between races.
Every year, many Spark battleships had gone missing after they entered the alternate space battlefield. They never appeared again. Their corpses and remains could not be seen as well.
Lin Dong was silent. He nodded his head and said, "I will take note."
The alternate space battlefield that the Spark battleships were in was the territory of others. Other than fighting one against many, they did not have any support.
This was a true battle. If they died, they would die without anybody knowing it.
Different Spark battleships would not be able to enter the same battlefield unless there was a special situation.
In fact, the number of Spark battleships that were destroyed in the alternate space was far higher than the number of battleships that they used to expand their territory in this universe.
This was something that could not be helped. If they wanted to develop and expand, they had to venture into other dimensions.

Only powerful warriors that had trained hard had the right to protect the human civilization and climb higher.
After Lorne sighed, he seemed to have thought of something, and he said, "Oh right, I almost forgot to tell you that the initial enhancement of the ship module of the Spark battleship only requires source points and some common mineral resources. After that, you'll need better mineral resources."
"Common mineral resources are easy to find. Those rare mineral resources have already been monopolized by the privileged class. Now, you only inherited my battleship, but your identity is still a commoner, and you don't have a lot of connections."
"This is a problem that you will have to solve in the future."
"Commoners are unable to come into contact with the rare and precious mineral resources. Don't even think about disguising your identity. They'll be able to tell at a glance whether you are a privileged class or not. As for how to think of a solution, that is something that you will have to deal with. I'll only give you a reminder."
Lin Dong nodded.
There was nothing to complain about these difficulties. Lorne was still being hunted down, but he did not kill Lin Dong. He even let Lin Dong inherit his battleship.
Although Lorne had his own purpose, Lin Dong still had to be grateful.
The privileged class had been scheming since the beginning. They had developed to this day, controlling the Spark battleship for 3 generations and strictly forbidding the spread of rare mineral resources to the non-privileged class.
Unless Lin Dong had connections with the privileged class, it was difficult to get hold of the rare minerals.
Through this method, the privileged class controlled the high-end military force, thus achieving the goal of stable rule.
The privileged class was divided into different forces, fighting and competing with each other. This kind of internal strife increased their vitality to a certain extent, so that they would not be corrupted by power.
In this interstellar era, it was not easy to upgrade to a different class, and it had become even harder to advance.
The commoner class, no matter how much money they earned, would not be able to obtain resources like the 1st generation Spark battleship.
As for the meditation technique, it was even more impossible.
The 4th generation battleship was something that the commoner could obtain if they spent a huge amount of money.
After explaining everything, Lorne closed his eyes as his breathing became weaker. It seemed like his life was about to come to an end.
He sighed softly. "Speaking of which, the Thunder Flash is actually the most ordinary Spark battleship of our family."
"When my family was ambushed by the Sylvester family, coupled with the information from the mole, 20 highly strengthened Spark battleships that we originally had were all destroyed. As the only lucky person of the direct bloodline, I managed to escape with great difficulty."
"Later on, I returned and inherited part of the assets that the family head had secretly hidden. After that, I've been fighting against the Sylvester family. However, I've achieved almost nothing in the past few decades. It's like the Sylvester family letting me go and giving the youngsters in their family a chance to gain experience."
"None of the pursuers are older than 40 years old."
"If you kill him and deactivate the Nano-bomb robots, it's best for you to find a random planet and hide. The Sylvester family does not have any information about you, so it is very likely that you'll be able to hide from them."
"The Sylvester family is unbreakable."
Lorne seemed to have become a good person at the last moment of his life, and he began to think about Lin Dong's survival.
If Lin Dong was an ordinary person, he would probably be so moved that tears would flow out.
Lin Dong might even tell him what was on his mind.
However, Lin Dong's heart skipped a beat, as he immediately focused his attention.
As expected. Lorne was really a vicious person who had pestered the Sylvester family for decades. He was still trying to test Lin Dong at the last moment of his life.

Silvergates: Northworld (Book 1 complete)
Five years ago, the first Silvergate was found. At first, they called it a hoax. But since then, more and more people have entered the alternate dimension called Northworld, received their Interface, and going on to real adventures. As it gained momentum, they called it a problem. Now, they call it a crime. But for nearly a half a million people, it's now their real home. Yearning. Escape. Duty. The reasons to go are many. Despite the criminalization of the Silvergating, people still seek out their ticket to Northworld. But for new Gaters Jasper Hill, Erika Haglund, Henry Esteban, Northworld has surprises in store. Not every rumor are false, not every conspiracy theory is stupid. When the veil lift for them, showing truths about Northworld that no one suspected, they may have a hard time making themselves heard. And being trusted may mean the difference between life or exile forever. Northworld is a litrpg story where people enter an actual world, submit to an RPG-type Interface, and discover an alternate reality. You could describe it as a reversible Isekai since people alternate between Earth and Northworld. The characters are usually casual about it, which means casual talk and the not-infrequent profanity. Four letter words dropped in conversation (or internal monologue). Warning: one potentially horrible theme and one implied sex scene. Book 1 is complete, as the title says. Book 2 is expected to start in 2022 (hopefully).

Incursions
This blurb concerns Incursions book 1: Incarceration. If you could buy superhuman abilities, but they might kill you—or worse—would you do it? Ten years ago, in a world not so different from our own, people with powerful abilities appeared. The new powers were dangerous, dangerous to acquire—dangerous to have—dangerous to wield. World governments raced to find and eradicate the abilities and those who possess them while using the media to rule by fear. Whereas corporations sought to exploit the abilities for profit. Raz Owens was living the dream - a rising star at a job he enjoys, a girlfriend he loves, but it all comes crashing down when Raz disregards his late father's advice. He is pulled into a chaotic underworld of clandestine labs, shadow organizations, and super-powered criminals. Used as a human test subject in a place where few survive the day, he must last long enough to escape. His only advantage? A power that seems nearly useless—a heads-up display. Contains: monsters, violence, death, dismemberment, gamelit, superpowers, superpower consequences, good guys, bad guys, good guys who might be bad guys, bad guys who think they are good guys, good guys that might go bad, bad guys that might turn good, guns for hire, competence, incompetence, continence, incontinence, conspiracies, and some of what I just said wasn't true. This story is written in third person limited POV. That means you can expect to know many of the thoughts and inner dialog of one character, and only see the actions of other characters. This POV does include scenes without the main character, and thus the reader can and will know things the main character does not. Further, this means characters act on what they know, which is almost always less than the reader knows. Something else to know. These books do not hold your hand. If you're reading it and thinking "Gosh, why aren't 'they' doing some 'obvious' thing." Bad news. You probably missed something that explains exactly that. If you're seeking a light read that doesn't ask much of you as the reader, you're invited and very welcome to come on in, but this might not be the story for you.

The Beta Test
Our nameless narrator participates in a beta test for an early VRMMO game Meridian 60. That's not the real name but it captures the spirit of the adventure given the chronological and contextual era of the game. His character is unique and special but purely for mundane reasons and not because of any inherent or social significance. The first chapter which is mandatory to submit a story on RR serves as a bit of a prologue with some exposition, although I limited that to a reasonble level. I plan to begin releasing additional chapters starting Thursday, to align with the 48 hour submission approval process and also because I have something to do Wednesday. I haven't written anything but the summary and first chapter, nor have I plotted anything out. This is because my plan is to release roughly 34000 words a day, 10 chapters of ~12.5 pages each, for 3 days at which point the story will be complete. I'd have liked to plan for more but handling the interface tables and so forth needed for a data heavy litrpg slows down the writing process. 100k words is a bit short, a standard pre epic fantasy 300 page spec fic novel, but this is mostly a writing exercise and I am considering a longer project if I can maintain the pace. Probably do a different concept, maybe a dungeon core, over 5 days, since a 500 page novel is more common these days. Slight subversion of VRMMO stories Stat heavy/crunchy No paying your bills by gaming No out of game conspiracies No angst, interpersonal drama, or damsels/dudes in distress Schedule is 30000 words a day excepting the first chapter, a limitation of RRs fiction submission system Fantasy, high magic, male lead, no party, guild, or harem No gore, some profanity, no sexual content, and no current plans for anything traumatic
