Monster Hunter: Farm Story Begins with Pokémon

Rayquaza flew at full speed and soon reached a distance of thousands of kilometers.

When you are within the range of a mobile phone signal.

His cell phone kept vibrating. It was a message from Huoya.

He took out his cell phone and looked at the messages sent by Huoya. They were all messages of concern. He had not received these messages before because there was no signal on his cell phone. Now that he was back, these messages were finally sent to his cell phone.

"Although mobile phones are useful, they are like bricks without signals. They can only be used to take photos and record. It is really inconvenient. Is there any way to increase the communication range?"

Bai Zhen looked at his phone and thought for a while.

The communication method used by everyone in Flame Village today is based on the functions of the Rotom phone.

That is to say, make the mobile phones become signal base points to transmit signals between mobile phones.

But if he wanted to expand the communication range, there were only three methods he could think of for now.

One is to popularize Rotom phones, so that everyone in the world can own a Rotom phone, and then use the phones in everyone's hands as signal base points to achieve global interconnection.

This method places extremely high demands on the performance of Rotom phones, and may require a single phone to process information sent by tens of thousands of phones at once. In addition, the dispersion of the signal is also very uncertain and can basically be ignored.

The second method is to deploy signal base stations on a large scale in the wild, using the outdoor camps in each village as signal base stations to achieve global signal communication.

This method seems to be the most feasible. After all, the distance between the camps is not far. Choosing a signal base station with a larger coverage range can achieve signal coverage in various areas.

But this method actually has many problems.

E.g.

1. Electricity problem.

Signal base stations consume a lot of electricity, and there is no way to connect the camps with wires to transmit electricity. These electric poles will inevitably be destroyed by monsters in the wild.

The only way to solve this problem is to equip each camp with professional equipment and thunder jades that can store energy, and they must be multiple thunder jades to ensure that the base station operates around the clock.

The cost of doing so is too high, so Bai Zhen must reach an agreement with each village and kingdom and let all forces help build base stations in order to achieve full signal coverage within ten years.

2. It is impossible to build signal base stations in some places.

Signal base stations need to be built on land. If they are located in places like oceans, signal base stations cannot be built there at all.

Bai Zhen once went to space to observe this planet. More than 90% of this planet is ocean. In other words, it is impossible to build signal base stations in these places.

Failure to build base stations means that signals cannot cover the entire world.

For example, a new continent that is far away cannot transmit signals out or in, which will turn the new continent into a "signal island".

3. Signal base stations will release radiation.

Bai Zhen was not sure whether this radiation would cause harm to monsters, or whether it would be detected by some very special monsters.

Monsters are always the biggest obstacle to the world's infrastructure.

Taking all the above reasons into consideration, building ground base stations is very difficult and may bring irreversible negative impacts to the entire world.

Therefore, the method of establishing a ground base station can only be used as a last resort option.

If the first two methods don’t work, then there is only the third method, which is also the relatively most reliable method, which is to launch a communications satellite!

Launching a GEO satellite, also known as a geostationary orbit satellite, can bring huge communication advantages.

Geostationary satellites are well established in the Pokémon world. These satellites orbit at an altitude of approximately 35786 kilometers and remain stationary relative to the 'planet's surface', hence the term 'stationary'.

Theoretically, launching three [GEO satellites] will be enough to cover all areas of the world except the poles. The planet where Monster Hunter World is located is about 5 times the size of the planet where Pokémon is located, and its surface area is 25 times that of the Pokémon planet. Calculated by the area covered by the satellites, about 13 such satellites are needed to directly achieve global coverage of Monster Hunter World.

In the Pokémon world, in order to protect the lives of Pokémon in the wild, the communication method adopted by the Alliance basically relies on this [GEO satellite].

This kind of satellite is much better than the world Bai Zhen lived in in his previous life. The communication speed is extremely fast, and the delay can basically be 0.1 seconds. It can realize phone calls, text messages, videos, and the Internet. This kind of satellite can even achieve GPS positioning and survey ground maps.

With the development of technology in the Pokémon world, the first satellite launched was a single communication satellite, and later satellites with GPS positioning and geodesy functions were gradually launched.

With the development of technology nowadays, Bai Zhen can just spend a little more money to launch a GEO satellite with all the functions integrated into one.

In addition, if the original GEO satellite wants to achieve global communication, it still needs to rely on some fixed signal base stations, such as large antennas on ships, or adding extra-long antennas to your mobile phone.

But this can be achieved with the Rotom phone, which will actively receive signals from satellites and quickly complete the analysis.

It can be said that if Bai Zhen really launches a satellite, real-time communication throughout the world will be completely possible, and many unimaginable things can be achieved.

However, things are not that simple.

First of all, the size of the planet. The mass and radius of this planet are about five times that of the Pokémon planet. A five times larger volume means that the gravity of this planet is heavier.

This has been confirmed. The gravity of this planet is 1.7 times that of the Pokémon planet, not 5 times the size.

This is also one of the reasons why the physical fitness of humans in this world is better than that of people in the Pokémon world.

When champions like Daigo arrived here, they all lamented the gravity of this planet.

For ordinary people, the gravitational force they can survive for a long time is roughly between 0.7 and 4 times.

1.7 times will not make champions like Daigo feel uncomfortable.

The impact of 1.7 times the gravity is not as simple as just affecting human fitness.

The most important thing is that it affects the speed at which the rocket needs to be launched.

If you want a satellite to fly around a planet without power, you need to reach the first cosmic speed.

The first cosmic velocity of the Pokémon planet is 7.9 kilometers, while the first cosmic velocity of the Monster Hunter planet has been calculated very rigorously and is approximately 22.91 kilometers per second.

This speed is higher than the third cosmic speed of the Pokémon planet, which is 16.7 kilometers per second required to escape the solar system.

The higher the required speed, the higher the satellite launch cost and the higher the requirements for the rocket.

Bai Zhen estimates that the price of another GEO satellite that integrates all functions will not be less than 30 billion Alliance coins. For 13 satellites, that would cost 390 billion, not including the launch cost. If the launch cost of one satellite is set at 10 billion, then the entire project will definitely not be completed without 520 billion.

The initial investment cost is too high, and it is difficult to recover the investment in a short period of time. It is really difficult to make a choice.

Unless he finds someone to invest, such as cooperating with the kingdom where Rodna is, the Fire Nation where Lingling is, the major kingdoms in the world, and the Hunter Guild to launch a satellite.

With investment from these people, it will not be a dream to achieve global communications and global mapping within a few years.

“The method is feasible. It depends on whether there are benefits and how to implement it.”

The technology is basically ready-made, and it is no problem to ask Daigo to help produce a dozen satellites. As long as the money is in place, it can be realized quickly.

The only trouble is that the launch rules in this world are completely different from those in the Pokémon world.

Even if Bai Zhen wanted to take Rayquaza to launch it himself, it would be difficult for him to accurately control the flight trajectory and speed of the satellite. This is not something that can be accomplished by human power.

While he was daydreaming, Rayquaza had already brought him over the sky above Flame Village.

At 9 o'clock in the evening, Bai Zhen had already arrived at Yanhuo Village. Bai Zhen sent the photo of the receipt for completing the task, as well as the battle videos of defeating Pengelong and a large number of Yangelongs to Sui Fengren to report the mission.

He couldn't wait and went straight back home.

Returning to the extremely familiar farm, Bai Zhen put Rayquaza into the ball and hurriedly passed through the portal back to the island.

Not long ago, Bai Zhen moved the portal in the basement of the villa to the farm on the plain. He still had to walk some distance to go home.

As soon as he came out of the portal, the drone hovering over the farm immediately spotted Bai Zhen.

After a scan, the drone left to complete its mission.

After this scan, Shuiyun should at least know that he is back.

Sure enough, when Bai Zhen quietly returned home and opened the door, Shui Yun was already waiting in the living room on the first floor.

It would be more accurate to say that I was busy in the kitchen rather than waiting.

Seeing each other again after several days still made Bai Zhen very excited.

Bai Zhen smiled with relief and said, "I'm back."

Shui Yun looked up and down at Bai Zhen's body, and confirmed that Bai Zhen was not seriously injured, and she breathed a sigh of relief.

She nodded somewhat coldly and said in a very calm tone: "Welcome back."

After saying that, Shuiyun turned around and went back to her work. Looking at the work at hand, she was making desserts, which seemed to be egg tarts prepared for Xie Mi, Hu Hu and other friends.

Although due to the long distance, I cannot contact home via mobile phone.

But he also found other ways to contact his family in an emergency.

That is to notify your family by purchasing items in the mall.

To purchase items in the mall, Bai Zhen does not need to carry money with him. As long as the property belongs to Bai Zhen, Bai Zhen can directly use his own money to purchase products in the mall even if they are in two different worlds.

Shuiyun helped to organize his current property neatly and put it in the warehouse. Whenever Bai Zhen spent money, Shuiyun could check the vault to confirm whether there was any money missing and how much was missing.

The item that Bai Zhen purchased was a monster ball that he could purchase unlimited times, at 200 gold each.

At 6 o'clock every night, Bai Zhen would buy monster balls. Buying one monster ball meant safety, buying two monster balls meant he would go home today, and buying three monster balls meant he was in danger and needed rescue.

In addition to these, Bai Zhen also listed a detailed table, using specific numbers to convey his meaning.

This method is extremely efficient and reliable, but the only pity is that it is expensive. It costs at least 200 gold to communicate once. Although it is still cheaper than the native communication methods in the Monster Hunter world, it is too high compared to the communication cost of mobile phones.

Shui Yun turned her back to Bai Zhen and said, "My sister is on the roof of the third floor now. You can find her upstairs."

Shuiyun's attitude can be said to be very cold.

Although he at least said a few words to me before I went out, his tone was full of distance.

Bai Zhen did not go to the third floor immediately. After taking off his shoes, he went straight to the kitchen.

When Shui Yun heard footsteps, she turned around curiously and found that Bai Zhen had come behind her.

Looking at Bai Zhen approaching, she suddenly remembered the scene when Bai Zhen kissed her not long ago, and her heart couldn't help but beat violently.

I don't think he'll want it again, right? Shemy and the others are still watching.

"What's wrong?" Shui Yun took two steps back with a weak heart, and stopped only when she had no way to avoid the operating table.

Bai Zhen approached Shui Yun and hugged her in his arms.

He didn't do anything else strange, he just gave her a simple hug.

When she was hugged at first, Shui Yun's whole body was tense and tense, but as time went on, after about four or five seconds, seeing that Bai Zhenzhen was just hugging her, her body completely relaxed.

A sense of security arose from the bottom of her heart.

After hugging for about ten seconds, Bai Zhen finally let go of Shui Yun.

Bai Zhen let go of herself, and Shui Yun looked down and suddenly found a blue gem necklace around her neck.

She reached out and touched the gem, a smooth sky blue jade gem that felt icy cold to the touch.

Bai Zhen looked at the simple sapphire necklace and nodded with satisfaction: "Although this gem is not very precious, it really looks great on you no matter what necklace you wear!"

"What is this?" Shui Yun looked confused.

"This is one of the rewards for my mission this time. It is a gemstone unique to the Fire Nation, the [Aquamarine]."

This time, the leader of the Fire Nation gave everyone jewelry worth 20 as a reward, and Bai Zhen naturally got it as well.

After checking the gems, he felt that they were not very good looking, so he proposed to exchange the 20 or so worth of jewels in his hand for two other jewels of similar value, hoping that the chief would allow him to exchange the jewels.

The leader of the Fire Nation also readily agreed to this matter.

After the banquet, Bai Zhen went to the treasury of the Fire Nation to choose, and finally chose a necklace made of two gemstones.

In terms of market price, these two gem pendants are priced at around 13 gold. As gems, these two gems are grade C gems.

In comparison, this gem is very different from the Jade Rabbit Stone and Moonlight Peridot that he gave away not long ago to make jewelry. The total value of those gems has reached billions.

Among those gems, the grade of moonlight peridot reached B grade, and jade rabbit stone even reached S grade.

In the context of the Monster Hunter world, this gem, which is about the size of a fingernail and weighs approximately 20 carats (4 grams), can be considered a relatively expensive gem.

For example, the ten-carat (2-gram) Tear of the Rock Dragon that Bai Zhen once sold to Daigo was graded D+ and its market price was generally around gold.

Comparing these two gems, the value of aquamarine is obviously higher, and it is a level that ordinary people can hardly match.

Shui Yun naturally thought that this was too precious, and she wanted to return it to Bai Zhen.

Bai Zhen directly held Shui Yun's hand and said, "A gift from a beautiful woman to a beautiful woman. This gem is actually nothing, but its value can only be increased if you wear it."

Shui Yun looked down at the gem on her chest.

Will it really look good when worn?

Bai Zhen did not give Shui Yun a chance to refuse and said, "This is a gift I brought back. Thank you for your hard work on the farm during this period."

After saying that, Bai Zhen left Xie Mi, Hu Hu and other friends on the first floor, while he went to the top floor of the third floor of the villa.

Arriving at the door to the third floor, Bai Zhen slowly opened it.

A breeze blew slowly, and Huoya's long black hair fluttered in the wind. The silver moonlight gently sprinkled on her delicate face.

The moment he saw the fire bud, Bai Zhen's heart became extremely peaceful.

No matter how powerful the enemy is, or how difficult the situation is, as long as you return home and see Huoya, all the fatigue will disappear.
