Chapter 307 Comprehensive Upgrade

"Hongde, you go to assemble the fleet. Once the Southern Cross fleet is ready, set off immediately. Our Wei family's territory is some distance away from the Megare star system. It will take more than 20 days for the fleet to arrive. During this period, I will contact Prince Walker, Marquis Kane, Marquis Diamon and others, I believe that by the time you reach the edge of the Megare star system, my negotiation has been completed."

"20 days, big brother, will that kid disappear in 20 days?" Wei Hongde suddenly thought of a very important question. In case my own fleet arrives in the Megal star system, that kid would have already patted his ass and left, wouldn't it be a waste of time to fetch water from the bamboo basket?

"Hmph... I've thought about this a long time ago. Although Lancelot is young, he is more proud than his father. If he knows that there is such a traitor who threatens the empire in his territory, , what would you do? If you count from the time when Marion occupied the Harto Starport, it will take more than half a month, even if you take a fast shuttle, you will only have just arrived in the Megall star system at this time. Just tell him his identity information Lancelot, your lord knows what to do."

"Ha, hit a snake and hit seven inches, catch the thief first and catch the king first, as long as he controls his younger brother and younger sister, that kid will definitely show his fox tail." Wei Hongde is a martial artist, it doesn't mean he has no brains, China's classic art of war has not been missed since childhood.

"That's right, as smart as Lancelot, he will definitely think of this trick. Then, in order to save his dear ones, that kid will definitely start a war again. As long as this battle starts, it won't end in a day or two. To Lancelot Especially speaking, this is a very attractive challenge. The boy blew up the Nami star, causing the Thunder Fleet to suffer heavy losses, and then defeated the Marquis Kane's Croatan garrison. Such a record is enough Comparable to the twelve leaders of the Garcia Rebels, Marion, Bill, and Krysugard."

"If you can catch such a guy, you can not only please His Majesty the Emperor, prove his ability to all the nobles, but also humiliate us who have missed repeatedly. Of course, passing the prey to Prince Walker for disposal afterwards will further deepen Yadan The relationship between the Duke and Prince Walker. Consolidate the status of the Ferguson family. As smart as Lord Lancelot, he will never let go of such a good opportunity."

"So, you see...it's actually very easy to hold that kid back. If Lancelot is lucky and really catches that kid, no matter how powerful he is, so what? What is the benefit that the Lord promised us? If he is unlucky, he will be beaten to the point of crying by that kid. Our Southern Cross Fleet is his savior. We must obediently let the door open and let Father His enemy and his enemy saved his life."

Wei Hongde squinted at Wei Hongguang: "Brother, you are old...cough, cough, ginger is still old..."

Wei Hongguang threw pa to him casually: "Okay, let's go, and study the performance of those combat units on the way."

"Understood." Wei Hongde agreed.

Quickly leave the room.

Wei Hongguang sat on the sofa without moving until it was dark outside the window. The room slowly darkened, but he picked up the special Pu'er tea on the table and took a sip, showing a relaxed expression on his face. This arrangement was something he thought about carefully for a long time before he came up with it.

...

When Wei Hongguang racked his brains to plot against Lord Lancelot, he didn't know that he didn't need to bother so much. In fact, there was no need for Lancelot to delay in order to treat Tang Lin. Tang Fang had to persist for another 20 days.

He didn't know that the Wei family had assembled a large number of naval forces and wanted to wipe him out with thunderous force. At this moment, his heart was almost entirely on Tang Lin.

Grant was still messing around with Kunna Austin, it was almost his job, and sometimes he was as polite as a nobleman. Sometimes I would care about every detail like the aunt who bought vegetables at Caishikou, wishing I could spend a dime in half. This annoyed the female bureau chief, but there was no good way to deal with it.

After more than a week like this, one afternoon, Grant, who had always been very indifferent, suddenly came to Tang Fang angrily, and asked the eye worm to hatch a few mimic larvae for him to dispatch. Tang Fang expressed his curiosity as to why the always good-tempered Grant would be filled with anger, but after asking for a long time, the professional-level dad faltered and hawed for a long time without explaining clearly.

But it turns out that in order to catch his weakness, Kunna Austin, from the temptation of money and power, to the seduction of women, followed by food, pedicure, bath, and a full set, Grant is like a turtle with only an iron hood, that is a All poisons do not invade, ten thousand demons ward off changes, so that the tigress has a pair of good teeth for no reason, and is stunned to have no way to open her mouth.

Finally, the female director suddenly had a wild idea, she began to doubt Grant's sexual orientation, and then, just this morning, arranged n+1 male servants for him. n stands for puppet, tough guy, wife, uncle, and even an old man who lost most of his teeth. As for that 1, well... it's a person, a monster.

Grant felt he had been insulted, and it was an absolute disgrace for a good man, a disgrace that could not be tolerated, that could not be condoned. So, in the next few days, tank trucks full of No. 0 source elements drove into the research institute compound.

Aros, Howson and the others were puzzled. They didn't know why the military suddenly changed their temper and honestly offered so many zero-source elements. Ask Grant, but he was vague and refused to say clearly, which made Bai Hao and Roy scratch their heads and ears every day, restless, as if they had boils under their buttocks.

What he did, only Tang Fang knows, this guy commanded the mimetic larvae to become a group of researchers, lined up from the left corner to the right wall, and he held a pistol in his hand and shot all the way from left to right. Kunna was so frightened that her face turned pale. After all, this guy agreed to stop, but the premise is that the government will first get some emergency supplies, because the energy supply of the research institute is somewhat insufficient.

Of course, the lack of energy is pure nonsense, it's just an excuse for him to beautify his extortion.

Tang Fang felt that Grant was more like a qualified kidnapper than himself. An honest person initiates a rush, which is called a ruthless...

However, this is the right way, if he doesn't do this, how can he get so many spare parts, the business of blackmailing the government is the most profitable.

The 5 tank trucks totaled 30 tons of source element zero, and Tang Fang found a warehouse to park them. Five worker bees were summoned to hatch into an extraction field. In less than half an hour, the gas resources in the system space increased by as much as three.

30 tons of zero element is equal to 3 gas, that is to say, an average of 1 kilogram of zero element is 1 point of gas.

After going through a counterattack, and absorbing 5 cans of zero element, the current resource amount has reached 457545.90945.

After coming out of the warehouse, Tang Fang patted Grant on the shoulder and told him to continue to work hard. Then he left the stunned crowd and went back to his room.

When Grant, Roy and others went into the warehouse and walked around, they were all in a mess. Five cars and zero elements disappeared, and they just disappeared out of thin air.

This thing is not a drink, fruit juice, Wuliangye, and it took only half an hour for a total of 30 tons of zero elements to disappear. Even if you take it to take a shower, it won't take so much...

Roy and Bai Hao were curious about how so many zero elements disappeared, but Grant was extremely distressed. The market price of 1 zero element is 50,000, and 30 tons is 1.5 billion. Hundreds of millions of banknotes just disappeared. , The time is gone in the blink of an eye, he, the boss, burns money faster than a waste paper shredder.

Is it easy to get two money back after working so hard? He was defeated in a blink of an eye. When will this hard day be a boss...

"Kunna Austin, let's ride a donkey to read the libretto and wait and see!" Grant took Tang Fang to no avail. Transfer all the resentment to the head of the female bureau chief.

At the same time, on Quentin Island, 30 tons of zero ingredients were sent out. The governor, who was in an extremely unhappy mood, was venting his anger on the lady. Roger Fellett, who could have lasted for half an hour, let out his breath...

"What happened to you today?"

Kunna Austin shook her head blushing: "I don't know."

On the other side, Tang Fang wasn't in the mood to explain to them. When he returned to his room, he immediately put his mind into the system space. Now there are 457545 crystals and 90945 gas in hand. It's time to upgrade your technology too.

He clicked on the scientific research buildings in turn:

Terran Base: In the Engineering Station, there are five upgrade options for "Infantry Weapon 1", "Infantry Armor 1", "Fine Steel Frame", "Instant Auto Tracking", and "Building Armor". The first two are upgrade items for biochemical troops, which can be upgraded three times. The latter three are human bunkers, anti-aircraft missile towers, and building upgrades.

Right now the building can't appear in the real space, and the last three items don't need to be upgraded for the time being. So click on the first two in turn, and add "Infantry Weapon" and "Infantry Armor" to the upgrade sequence.

About 10 seconds later, a notification came that the upgrade was complete. When Tang Fang moved the cursor to the engineering station again, due to the lack of human building "Arsenal", the level 2 "Infantry Weapons" and "Infantry Armor" were all locked in gray.

"Emma, ​​can the attack and defense bonuses against biochemical units be calculated after the upgrade?"

"Commander, according to the calculations of the Star Orbit Command Center, according to the power of the current human infantry weapons, the machine gunners who have improved the performance of weapons and armor in terms of attack, the power of a -14 piercer is enough to penetrate a 100 uniform Steel, can cause powerful damage to light armored vehicles like the 'Sabertooth Tiger'. The protection has also been greatly improved, and the improved -300 power armor can resist 20 caliber machine guns."

"Well, I got it." Tang Fang was very satisfied with the result. The machine gunners who could withstand 20 machine guns and kill light vehicles were already very strong. After all, they were only infantry units. If it were looters, their attack power would probably be stronger. Before they were upgraded, they could smash the shell of the armored vehicle with a few shots. What about now? I'm afraid two or three cannonballs will blow him up to pieces.

If the "infantry weapon" is upgraded to level 3, I don't know if the marauder's judge grenade can detonate a main battle tank like the "one-horned rhinoceros". What if the "infantry armor" is upgraded to level 3? Heavy armor units like Marauders and Firebats might be able to resist most artillery shells and small missiles except armor-piercing shells.

Next, he moved the cursor to the science and technology laboratory of the annex building of the barracks. Since the nurses and flame-breathing soldiers of StarCraft 1 were added, there are a total of 7 upgrade options in the science and technology laboratory, namely, "anti-riot shield", "Stimulant", "Concussion bomb", "-238 shell", "Recovery", "Optical flare", "Kelthus reactor".

Among them, the "stimulants" and "concussion bombs" have been upgraded. Considering that there are medical ships and nurses in the battlefield, Tang Fang postpones the technological upgrade of nurses, and only uses the "anti-riot shield" and "-238 shell" Added to the upgrade sequence.

After upgrading the "riot shield", the machine gunner will get a combat alloy shield with a thickness of 30. The material is vanadium alloy carbide armor. According to Emma's calculation results, the combat alloy shield provides the machine gunner with stronger battlefield survivability. Machine gunners who have upgraded the "Infantry Armor" can withstand 20 caliber bullets, and with the "riot shield", unless it is a heavy sniper rifle like the Empire's "Thor's Wrath", it is generally difficult for weapons below 27 caliber They inflict fatal injuries. Of course, the premise is that the machine gunners will not be so stupid as to stand still and let the enemy shoot.

As for "-238 shell". A layer of 238 depleted uranium is coated on the outside of the metal nail. The initial velocity and average flight speed of such bullets are higher than other ammunition, and the penetration is stronger than that of ordinary bullets. When it is injected into the body, it will be corroded by radioactive substances (it can be understood as radiation poisoning), the fatality rate is extremely strong.

Originally, the -14 piercer is an armor-piercing weapon. As long as it does not hit key parts such as the head and the heart, it is difficult to cause a one-hit kill to the infantry, but. With the "-238 casing", everything is different. Once the enemy is shot, the radioactive material will quickly wear down their combat capabilities.

Then, he turned his attention to the "Ghost Academy", a total of 5 research projects, "Invisible Camouflage", "Fusion Warhead", "Locking", "Transplant Eye", and "Mobius Reactor".

Among them, the "invisible camouflage" has been studied before. This time, Tang Fang added "Locking", "Transplant Eye", and "Mobis Reactor" to the research sequence in one go.

In this way, the already very powerful OS is even stronger. "Locking" can allow him to disable the enemy's armored vehicles, such as air combat units such as aerospace fighters and gunships. As long as they dare to fly a little lower, take off their pants and squat down to prepare for indiscriminate bombing, "lock-in" will let them taste the feeling of being out of the latrine.

The "transplant eye" is a must-have prop for releasing a nuclear bomb. The "Mobis Reactor" can optimize the utilization rate of psionic energy. Originally, with the psionic energy level of the os, it can maintain a stealth state for at most 2 hours without a Mobis reactor. But now it can be extended to 4 hours, fully doubled. The current os is the real elite of the human race.

After this large-scale upgrade, the comprehensive combat effectiveness of the human biochemical troops has almost increased several times.

After improving the combat capabilities of the biological and chemical troops, it is naturally the turn of the vehicle project, because the "Arsenal" has not been unlocked yet. The research items of the vehicle are only 5 upgrade items in the annex of the heavy factory science and technology laboratory, which are "plasma propulsion", "spider ray mine system", "caron voltage regulator", "hellfire pre-burner", "Digging Claws".

Among them, the "Spider Ray Bray System" and "Caron Voltage Regulator" have been upgraded a few days ago. This time, it is naturally the other three's turn. "Plasma thrusters" boost the Vulture's speed to 370 mph, nearly half the speed of sound.

The "Hellfire Pre-burner" changes the flames emitted by the Hellion Chariot from red to blue with thermite, making him a true killer of light vehicles and mechanized infantry. As for the last "digging claws", Widow Lei is equipped with more advanced digging equipment, which can make it dive quickly.

So far, the existing upgrade projects of human combat units have basically been researched, and the air force cannot upgrade because the pendant technology laboratory attached to Starport has not been unlocked.

Only a large-scale upgrade of the human troops consumes 13,000 crystals and 13,000 gas.

After that, switch to the Zerg base, remove the previously upgraded items, and the current building scale provides the following research:

"Neurocollagen Reorganization" in the Cockroach Greenhouse, "Deep Spine Needles" and "Tendon Amplification" in the Hydralisk Lair, "Circular Hook Sickle" in the Baneling Lair, "Melee Attack 1" and "Jet Attack 1" in the Evolution Chamber ", "Ground Unit Carapace 1", and finally "Flying Creature Attack 1", "Flying Creature Carapace 1" for the Spire.

Without hesitation, he first clicked on the four upgrade options of "Nerve Collagen Reorganization", "Deep Groove Spine Needle", "Tendon Amplification", and "Circumferential Hook Sickle".

'Neurocollagen reorganization' gives cockroaches faster movement. "Deep Spine Needle" and "Tendon Augmentation" allow the Hydralisk to move faster and have a longer range outside of the creep.

As for the "Circular Hook Sickle", it allows the Baneling to roll like a ball to increase its speed. During the Lanna Military Academy battle, the Baneling was sent by Tang Fang to snipe the 289th Armored Division. At that time, the king worm air-dropped the poisonous explosion. Because of the relatively slow speed of the Baneling, it is okay to chase the infantry wearing the "Guardian Knight", but it is difficult to face vehicles such as the "Sabertooth Tiger" and "One-horned Rhinoceros". However, after upgrading the "Ring Heart Hook Sickle", it will be different. The self-explosive egg that will "roll" will definitely become a nightmare for the government ground troops.

After upgrading the unique skills of the unit, he pressed the five upgrade options of "melee attack 1", "jet attack 1", "ground unit carapace 1", "flying creature attack 1", and "flying creature carapace 1". Since the Zerg base has been upgraded to 2 copies, after the 5 1 upgrades are completed, the 2 upgrade items light up again. But when Tang Fang moved the cursor to "Melee Attack 2", he almost bit his tongue off the research cost, 7500 crystals, 7500 gas, and the cost of "ground unit carapace 2" was even more exaggerated 11250 crystals, 11250 gas, enough The foot has increased by 50 times!

1 is 10 times the cost of the game, and 2 is 50 times. Are you kidding me? Tang Fang couldn't help but roll his eyes: "Emma, ​​does the 2 research of the human unit also consume 50 times the resources?"

"Yes, Commander, the global upgrade items of the 3 families, 1, 2, and 3 correspond to 10 times, 50 times, and 200 times the resource cost."

"**! 200 times resource cost, why don't you grab it?"

"..." Emma was silent.

"Forget it, I'll bear it!" Tang Fang asked with a sigh: "'Ring Heart Hook Sickle', 'Deep Groove Ridge Needle' and so on are easy to understand. However, items like 'Melee Attack 1' are more effective against Zerg after upgrading. How will it improve?"

"Commander, you can use the lowest-level puppy of the Zerg as an example. Before the upgrade of 'Melee Attack 1', the puppy can easily tear apart the armor of the 'Guardian Knight', but for lightly armored vehicles such as armored vehicles, it must be Continuous attack can tear its hard armor. After upgrading the 'melee attack 1', the puppy can complete the task in 8 seconds that can be completed in 20 seconds. And 'flying creature attack 1', it gives In addition to the stronger attack power of Mutalisks and Corruptors, for Mutalisks, ordinary light armor units can already achieve one-hit kills, even against main battle tanks equipped with 'Super Chobham Armor'. It can break armor within 3-5 attacks. If you are facing small space battleships, such as frigates, destroyers and other light ships, 3-5 flying dragons are enough to defeat them. Of course, if it is a corrupter, it will be more destructive. Generally speaking, a Corruptor with a body length of 40 meters can completely defeat the Empire's Dogfish-class frigates, and even fight evenly with the Thresher-class destroyers."

"Not bad, not bad." Tang Fang nodded in satisfaction. It's a bit expensive, but it's worth it. Well, the flying dragon is an air combat unit that is only about 12 meters long, and the 5 heads add up to only 60 meters. It can actually rival the "Thresher" class destroyer of the Empire, which is more than 160 meters long, not to mention the powerful air-to-air force like the Corruptor.

If all Zerg units with a population of 1,000 are produced into Corruptors, doesn't that mean that they can fight against a regular cruiser fleet? If they are matched with 300 Viking fighters, will they be able to fight against a battleship-class mixed fleet? Have the strength to fight? Emma gave an affirmative answer, but the winning rate was only 5.50% at most, even if they won the fight, it would still be a miserable result.

The answer she gave was actually very vague. After all, in a large-scale battle like a fleet battle, factors such as formation, strategy, use of weapons, collocation of various ships, experience of the commander, use of terrain, etc., are enough to determine the outcome of the war. (To be continued..)
