Chapter 290 New Power
"Emma, report update content." Tang Fang asked impatiently.
"Commander, the production menu of the heavy factory has been updated, and two combat units of Vulture Tank and Goliath Robot were added. At the same time, the research projects of the attached hanger technology laboratory have also been refreshed."
"It's true that's not what I expected." He smiled and bet on the heavy factory of the Human Base, selected the cursor, and looked at the production menu on the right. The production projects can be increased from the original 4 types to the current 6 types.
"What a vulture chariot and Goliath robot!"
Vulture chariot, also known as Scavenger Air Hopper and Thunder Cart. Among the human technology units of the StarCraft era, the floating vulture chariots are mainly used for reconnaissance and patrol. They can travel at a speed of 230-370 miles per hour. The standard weapon is a single-soldier grenade launcher, but the new Vulture chariot model also carries a spider mine system that can defend the surrounding area of the base.
In terms of attack, a single-soldier grenade launcher can naturally not cause too much damage to heavy vehicles. The real terrible thing about the vulture chariot is its powerful spider-thunder system. Although the spider-thunder does not have powerful destructive power like its advanced weapon Widow Thunder. However, it is expensive, and has low cost, and has systems such as Quguang stealth, self-seeking, tracking, and simple AI. It can accurately and effectively kill individual soldiers, as well as light and medium-sized vehicle units. Goliath robot, also known as Giant Battle Walking Mecha. Goliath
The robot is composed of next-generation steel and can effectively resist the attacks of grenades and light weapons. With the help of two reverse joint mechanical legs, Goliath robots have all-terrain operation capabilities and computer-controlled weapons. Most of them use two 30mm automatic rifled guns that fire bombs and Hellfire air defense missiles to attack. Therefore, although Goliath robots are mainly used for air defense, they can also provide ground fire support, which can effectively strike enemy aircraft. It is also a nightmare for infantry and light vehicles.
The Goliath robot can also increase the propulsion of the missile by configuring a Karon voltage regulator, and can also upgrade the aiming system to make the Hellfire air defense missile have a longer range and higher accuracy.
In order to control Goliath robots, the driver has to tie himself into a "basket" to allow the robot to simulate the movements of his limbs (mainly the lower limbs) through a computer. As for controlling weapons and other content that is difficult to control with limbs, it is done by voice control. These operations require a lot of practice, so that their drivers need to go through six months of training.
Then, Tang Fang moved the cursor to two projects. The cost of the vulture tank was 75 crystals, occupying a population of 2, the cost of the Goliath robot was 100 crystals, 50 gases, and the occupancy was 2. Finally, he turned his attention to the affiliated pendant science and technology laboratory of the heavy factory. There were 3 new research projects in total, namely: upgrading the ion propeller, deploying the spider-rebrine system, and installing the Karon voltage regulator.
Upgrading the ion thruster allows the Vulture tank to gain movement speeds of up to 370 mph, making it more flexible and swift. Deploy the Spider-Root Blush system, as the name implies, to enable the Vulture tank to gain the ability to bury the Spider-Root Blush.
As for installing a Caron voltage regulator, it will make the Goliath robot's air-to-air range longer.
The cost of upgrading the ion thruster is the same as deploying the Spider Rebate system. Both are 1,000 crystals and 1,000 gases. The installation of the Caron voltage regulator is 1,500 crystals and 1,500 gases.
According to Emma's estimate, the "nano-neural network electrical pulse expansion plan" will take about a month to complete. During this period, the Rector government will probably not sit idly by. In the following days, defending the institute and protecting Tang Lin will inevitably be a very difficult task. Maybe the entire northern suburb of Wendenbat will become a battlefield.
Lancelot is not a cowardly person. He will definitely mobilize the entire Rector's army to suppress him. In the next month, there will be a tough battle waiting for him.
However, with the ground thorns, the vulture chariots and the omnipresent and nimble spider thunder, he would let the government's army taste the blooming taste of the butt.
As for the Air Force, with Viking fighters and Goliath robots, Rector's Air Force should be difficult to gain advantage. Of course, if Lancelot was full and had several warships down, he would not mind letting the young and promising Lord taste the taste of flying dragons riding his face.
After the mind exited the system space, Tang Fang took a deep breath and was about to put away the "Zhixin" and go out, suddenly, Emma's voice sounded: "Commander, I found a strange phenomenon. In addition to the manufacturing and upgrading project of the heavy factory, this system update suddenly added a weird document titled "unknow" in the computer of the Star Track Command Center. The creation date is unknown, the signature is unknown, and the size is unknown. I tried to transfer it to the isolation area and opened it in the virtual system environment. I found that its content is very short, with only a few numbers, and it should be a coordinate value."
"Facky document? Azimuth coordinate value?"
"Yes, if you compare the Galaxy Star Map, the coordinates should be located in the Tianchao Star Area in the Hillenbel Region." While speaking, a star map appeared in Tang Fang's mind, and along with the coordinate points circled by Emma.
"The 'Dead Sea' in the Tianchao Star Zone?" Tang Fang was stunned.
The so-called Dead Silent Sea is a "no man's land" in the Tianchao Star Zone with a space-time span of 1,800 light-years. There is no tangible and colorful interstellar matter such as stars, planets, or even stardust. It is a vast vacuum desert and the natural dividing line between the Hillenbel region and the Asgoths. Even if you take the fastest cosmic shuttle, it will take more than 3 years to travel back and forth.
Over the past 200 years, countless scientists and adventurers have explored the Sea of Dead Silence for many years and have never discovered anything valuable. Just like its name, there is definitely a sea of Dead Silence. In addition to nothingness or nothingness, some boring guys joked that the Sea of Dead Silence is the entrance to hell.
What is the matter with this coordinate? Why is it pointing to the sea of silence? He racked his brains and thought for a long time but couldn't think of it. "Emma, what do you think?"
"I'm sorry, Commander, I can't make a reasonable judgment without conducting a field investigation."
"Are you sure this coordinate point comes from 'intelligent core'? It's not something that existed before?" Tang Fang took out another chip from Crotan from the storage module of his shoulder armor, looked back and forth for a few seconds.
"Commander, I checked the system log again. Yes, the file definitely appeared just after the system was updated."
He looked at the two chips several times, and finally looked at a section and paired them in the middle. A strange phenomenon occurred. The sections were tightly tied together, and there was no fixed gap in the middle. Just as the two were originally fragments of a complete core core.
The two chips are combined into a rectangular structure, but there is an irregular hole in the center. Tang Fang held two chips with one hand and raised them over his head. He looked at them with the lights on the ceiling: "If I'm right, there should be a 'intelligent core'. Could it be...that coordinate is the position of the last chip?"
"Forget it, let's talk about what's going on in the future. The first priority at the moment is to solve Tang Lin's physical problems. Well, there is also a defensive battle against the Rector government army."
Putting two "intelligent cores" into the storage module of the shoulder armor, Tang Fang turned around and walked out of the laboratory. Next, he did not immediately return to the command center, but went around the energy warehouse of the institute and robbed the Zero Source that Faraday used for research.
Perhaps because Faraday's research direction is more specific to bioengineering. The reserves of No. 0 source metal in the energy warehouse are not large. According to Emma's measurement, the treatment plan needs to be measured and a total of 4,000 gas values were absorbed.
After breaking through the police blockade and capturing the Lanna Military Academy and breaking into battle, the resource values in the system space remained 322925 crystals and 70815 gas.
The three tribe units are as follows:
Zerg: King insect x75, eye insect x30, puppy x388, insect rear x87, cockroach x147, flying dragon x60, ground thorn x1 spine needle crawler x88, population number 784/842.
Gods: Detective x1, Fanatic x265, Chaser x37, Dragon Knight x44, Mechanical Sentinel x34, High Templar x2, Population 764/1000.
Human race: scvx1, machine gunner x153, harvester x8, raider x16, fire bat x14, medical soldier x24, evil fire tank x25, siege tank x36, Viking fighter x87, medical transport aircraft x18, ghost x5, population 578/1000.
Thinking of the severe situation he would face next, he first clicked on the options of "deploy the Spider Rebate System" and "installing the Caron voltage regulator", and then added 40 vulture tanks and 30 Goliath robots to the production sequence.
The resource value dropped to 312005,64315. A few minutes later, an additional mechanical force appeared in the human base, and the total population soared to 718/1000.
Immediately afterwards, he transferred his mind to the Zerg base, hatched 20 king insects and 30 thorn snakes in succession, and directed 20 of them to mutate into ground thorns. This process consumed 10,000 crystals and 3,500 gases. The total resources continued to decrease, reaching 302005, 60815. The Zerg units increased to 844/1,000.
After doing this series of things, he produced four SVs in a row. Together with the original one, he followed the plug-in device design drawings provided by Emma and used various resources in the institute to enter the busy and busy work.
When Tang Fang returned to the command center, Valentine had been waiting with two researchers for a long time. On the other hand, the sweeping team led by four ghosts also drove out all the blood wolf warriors in the research institute. As for some engineering, logistics personnel, and civilian officers, they were uniformly imprisoned in a cell used to detain experimental materials in Area C.
As an anthropologist and medical worker, Valentine was quite compassionate. After learning about the purpose of their trip from Tang Fang, the old man volunteered to stay and assist in the treatment, hoping that he could let go of the coerced researchers and some idle people in engineering and logistics.
The Tang side rejected the request and briefly explained his considerations.
In the next month, there will definitely be a fierce battle between him and the Rector government. Let those people go back? It is simply unhappy for himself.
Valentine himself did not have much hope for this matter. Seeing that he refused, he could only sigh and say no more.
About 10 minutes later, the roar of fighter planes came from the sky above the institute. A medical transport plane slowly landed on the apron in the buffer zone around the institute. Claya, Tang Yun, and Hausen, who was carrying Tang Lin, walked out under the protection of two teams of machine gunners.
Aros stayed on the spot to guard, and Grant led several people into the institute. Bai Hao and Roy, who had dealt with Hygres, also returned to the command center together.
After everyone met, they couldn't help but have another round of conversation. After learning about Bai Hao and Roy's encounter, Claya looked sad and sighed. However, Hausen continued his usual style. He got along with two and a half-old boys and made an appointment to go to a restaurant to have a drink, which slightly diluted the sadness in Roy's heart.
Tang Yun was very curious about Freya. After all, the two were about the same age. However, the latter was still sleeping and could not talk.
Tang Lin and Freya were placed in two different wards, and several machine gunners and fanatics were ordered to take care of the two. Tang Fang came out of the institute and summoned 20 ground thorns.
When those spider-like big guys appeared in front of Aros and Grant, the two were frightened. The ground thorns were a circle larger than the siege tanks, and their bodies were about 12 meters long. The sharp hook claws were inserted into the ground. From a distance, they were shining with the cold light of soul-catching. There were many long and pointed needles on its back carapace, and the needles rose and fell as they shook. It was so terrifying.
Tang Fang swept through the grove between the buffer zone and the Institute's iron wire network, and issued a "submersible" order to 20 ground thorns.
Chi, Chi...
Accompanied by harsh sounds, the big guys, who were nearly 4 meters high and 10 meters wide, swarmed and moved six lower limbs in the circular area of the grove around the institute, and quickly penetrated into the ground.
The cigar in Aros's mouth almost burned out, almost burning his lips. Grant looked at the thorns that disappeared at the end of his vision with a dull look, muttering: "What are they capable of?"
Tang Fang didn't say anything, just sneered, but Aros spit out a cigarette butt: "Poor guys..."
Next, he summoned 40 vulture chariots. Unlike the evil fire chariots, vulture chariots are much thinner and look more like battlefield motorcycles than cars. However, it is longer and has a more dazzling appearance.
The Vulture Chariot is a real single-person vehicle. The sharp front is equipped with a 40mm caliber howitzer, the open-air cockpit in the middle, and a simple console. The rear of the car is equipped with a high-pressure airflow jet device and a thruster set. With all efforts, the Vulture Chariot's speed can exceed the speed of sound.
Regarding the spider-thunder-brick system, Tang Fang learned some information different from the game through the chariot driver. Generally speaking, the vulture chariot can carry 3 spider-bricks. If it is just a simple mine-brick mission, the vulture chariot can recall the system space after the trajectory is laid, and then, within 1 minute, it will regain supplies.
After learning about this situation, Tang Fang was very excited for a while, and then ordered the vulture chariot to disperse and lay a spider thunder in the isolation area outside the buffer zone lawn and iron wire net of the institute.
40 vulture chariots raised a piece of dust in the park and drove out quickly. At this moment, Aros, who had always been calm, suddenly patted his shoulder: "Leave one for me."
Tang Fang and Grant both looked at him in surprise. They thought that the veterans didn't care much about weapons, cars, etc., but it turned out that he liked this thing. However, it's no wonder that some stories, men who have experienced vicissitudes do not like cars very much, and they always feel sissy. However, this kind of motorcycle with a primitive and wild charm is more suitable for them.
"Ok!" Tang Fang threw a vulture driver back to the system space. The veteran stepped into the cockpit. As soon as the accelerator was refueled, a red flame lit up at the rear thruster. The vulture chariot shot out with a "swoosh" and headed straight to the south gate of the park.
After the dust from 40 vulture chariots subsided, Tang Fang summoned 30 Goliath robots. These iron guys who were specially used for air defense operations were 3.7 meters high, and had two multi-functional robot arms on the upper body, which could be used for engineering operations. They carried a pair of Hellfire missile launchers on the shoulders. They were equipped with two 30mm rifled cannons on the abdomen, and two anti-joint mechanical legs on the lower part.
Through the performance report sent back by the pilot, Tang Fang learned that the Goliath robot can attack the enemy's aircraft with the help of radar, far-infrared enemy rushing, multi-mode guidance and other equipment. The Goliath robot, which has upgraded the Karon voltage regulator component, has a range of more than 50 miles, and can attack the enemy's fighter jets more than visually, and even space warships landing in the atmosphere.
Grant's eyelids were leaping, ground thorns, vulture chariots, Goliath robots. After visiting the institute, he actually created several combat units. Is this kid possessed by Doraemon?
Tang Fang saw that he was gone and ordered 10 Goliath robots, 10 raiders, 10 nurses and 100 machine gunmen to form a patrol force to carry out alert tasks around the park's railway network. He summoned 30 siege tanks and set up a tank array between the buffer zone and the square around the institute.
Then, 20 evil fire chariots were sent out of the park and scattered around some important sections of the northern suburbs, buildings and urban facilities, and cooperated with the vulture chariots to conduct front-line reconnaissance and patrol operations.
As for the inside of the institute, the top of the building is guarded by a close-defense force composed of insects, ghosts, fire bats, fanatics, and a large number of puppies.
Chapter completed!
