Chapter 332 Hidden Building

The huge building that was knocked down by the tank was completely different from what I imagined. I initially thought it was a functional building, that is, something that players need to use, such as temples and career centers, to perform some system functions on their behalf. architecture. However, after actually knocking down this building... Oh no, I should say knocking down the outer wall of this building, I finally discovered that this building is not actually a system functional building at all. In fact, it is a - disguised building .

That's right, the building in front of you is not an ordinary building at all. It is actually a disguised building. The layer of bricks on the outside is actually just a disguised existence, but inside it hides a completely independent building. special device.

Although the tank collapsed the outer wall of the building, because there were additional supports for reinforcement inside the building, and the strength of the huge equipment itself was considerable, the tank only made the thing shake a little in the end, and It didn't really cause direct damage to it, and I couldn't even see the full picture of this functional device. All I can see now is the upper half of this thing, which is a device that looks a lot like a rocket launcher.

The part I can see should be the top part of the device. Its main body is a metal column extending upward. The cross-section of this metal column is a rectangular structure, with a length of about five meters and a width of maybe two meters. . There are rings arranged vertically on one side of this metal column. Each of these metal hollow rings has a diameter of more than eight meters, and they are all fixed horizontally. If you look down from above, you should be able to see all the way to the bottom beyond the center of these rings.

The reason why I say that the upper half of this thing looks like a rocket launcher is because these stacked metal rings are like the telescopic arms used to fix the rocket on the rocket launcher, and the metal column next to it is similar to Transmission tower with fixed telescopic arm.

Just after I took a look at the top half of the thing, the tank recovered from the impact. After retreating a little, the tank began to wave its huge forelimbs and began to destroy the outer wall of the building. The outer walls of this building were obviously reinforced, but the powerful destructive power of the tanks still easily shattered all these outer walls. After all, except for the sickle-shaped front end of the tank's forelimbs, the structure of the following segments is completely modeled after the bony hammer structure of the mantis shrimp. The mantis shrimp in the real world is only a few centimeters long, but it can use the pair of bone hammers to create an instant impact like a pistol bullet. Think about the size of the tank and magnify this power. Although it cannot be said that the power will be increased proportionally, it is definitely a very terrifying power, at least the outer wall of the building cannot block it.

When the outer wall of the building was blown away, the tank had already received my prompt and deliberately avoided the main body of the thing without destroying it. When the outer wall was completely peeled off, the main body of the thing was finally completely exposed.

The lower part of the thing that was originally blocked indeed has a similar structure to the upper part. The metal pillar and the row of metal rings extend all the way up from below, but there is something else at the bottom of the entire device that is not directly connected to the ground. Directly below the stacked rings, there is a circular magic circle located in a vertical line with those rings. The area of ​​this magic circle is exactly the same as the area inside the rings. The magic patterns carved on the magic circle are quite strange, all using metal wires, and there are some small protrusions in many parts that are slightly higher than the magic circle itself. This special design should be regarded as a wrong setting in the magic circle we previously knew. But considering that the other party also masters the three-dimensional magic array design, this thing does not seem so strange.

The composition of the magic array is somewhat similar to the circuit structure. In some places, the circuits need to be interconnected without contact. Therefore, it is very difficult to set up a single-layer magic array. After all, it is necessary to ensure that the circuits are on the same plane and cannot overlap. At the same time, We also need to try to keep the line as short as possible. With so many requirements combined, you can imagine how complicated the magic circle will be.

The three-dimensional magic circle we learned from the super bomb before is very complicated. But that's because it's an elemental fusion magic array, not a problem with the three-dimensional magic array itself. In fact, as long as you imagine it a little, you will find that the biggest advantage of the three-dimensional magic array is simplicity rather than complexity. Because the magic circles that were originally on the same plane could not intersect, the lines were forced to be elongated. A method similar to a maze grid was used to make the lines go round and round. This not only greatly increased the difficulty of design and manufacturing, but more importantly, prolonged the magic time. line. Not to mention wasting resources, the reaction speed and energy efficiency of the magic array itself will be greatly reduced. However, the three-dimensional magic array does not have this trouble. When you encounter a line that needs to cross, you don't have to consider detours at all. Just let the line go off the plane, just like a real overpass, passing directly above or below the original line. In this way, the length of the line can be greatly shortened, and the most important thing is that the line design of this structure is much simpler. Array diagrammers no longer need to draw a lot of winding methods for a cross line, as long as a simple cross and everything is solved.

Precisely because the three-dimensional magic array greatly reduces the structural complexity of the magic array, the magic array designed with it should be very simple. However, the magic circle in front of him is extremely complicated. Although it is very huge. However, the magic array structure on its surface is densely packed. Taking into account the characteristics of its three-dimensional magic structure, it is not difficult to imagine how huge this magic array would be if it were flat. Even if it were flat, this magic array would be May not be completed.

Such a complex three-dimensional magic array means that the function of this thing must be very powerful, and its effect should also be very strong, otherwise the other party will not set up such a complicated thing for a simple function. However, because the three-dimensional magic array has a layered structure and uses a packaging method similar to modern computer chips, the circuit diagram is no longer open to the outside, so even if I can see the surface of the magic array now, I don’t know what these magic array diagrams are. What is it used for?

Although the structure of the magic circle is very complex, in fact the main body of this huge device is not the magic circle, not even the erected metal pillars and rings, but a huge device at the bottom of the metal pillar. This thing almost completely occupied the east side of the first floor of the previous camouflage building. The huge volume looked like seven or eight locomotives pressed together. Its length is at least forty meters, its width is also ten meters, and its height is at least four and a half meters.

A large number of heat sinks can be seen extending from the surface of this huge and bloated device. It feels like this thing should be some kind of energy device. And the power must be very large, otherwise it would be impossible to arrange so many heat sinks. Moreover, the side of this thing facing me is almost full of various crystals. It can be determined that this thing must use a large number of three-dimensional magic arrays. Otherwise, there should not be so many magic crystals on its surface. These crystals should They are all magic array nodes of this device, and they are mostly set outside the device to ensure that they can be quickly replaced when needed. and. Placing it on the outside of the device can also ensure that the crystal stone can be visually seen when it has no energy, which helps to detect and replace the crystal stone in advance.

After observing the general condition of this device, I did not let the tank destroy it. Because this thing looks quite powerful, I really want to take this thing back to study it like before. But...even if I don't order the tank to keep this device, we probably won't be able to destroy it, because at the same time the tank received the order, many people suddenly appeared around it.

The sudden appearance I say is not an exaggeration, but a real sudden appearance. While we were still observing the device, many light groups suddenly fell from the sky inexplicably around us. These olive-shaped light clusters fall rapidly from the sky like meteors. The difference is that meteors mostly enter the atmosphere at an angle, while these light spots fall vertically. Moreover, the color of these light groups is not orange-red but blue-white. It is not very bright, but it is very conspicuous.

These light groups fell to us from high altitude in an instant like lightning, and then turned into a group of players the moment they were about to touch the ground. This feeling is very much like some kind of teleportation magic, but what is very special is that it not only teleports hundreds of people at once, but more importantly, it directly sends people to us. And I am very sure that there is no teleportation array here. In other words, this teleportation technique can directly send people to any designated location without the need for a teleportation array on the opposite side to receive it.

This kind of fixed-point transmission sounds like it only does not require receiving a magic circle, but it is actually of great significance, because if you can send people to a designated location without receiving a magic circle, it means that you have a very special Special battlefield delivery capabilities. It's like the paratroopers and helicopter drop troops used in modern warfare. When necessary, enough power can be delivered directly to the enemy's weak point, and then give the enemy a fatal blow. This ability can be said to be very abnormal, because whether it is used to perform decapitation operations or directly destroy the enemy's strategic weapons, it will put the enemy in an absolutely passive state.

Of course, just like that elemental bomb, this teleportation ability must have limitations. It cannot be a completely free transfer, it should also have certain restrictions. I guess the most likely limitation is distance limitation, which means that the launcher has a launch distance and can only send personnel to a certain point within a certain range near the launch point. It is not possible to just set up a launch point and fill the world. went. In addition, I estimate that this thing also has flaws such as being easily interfered. After all, the reason why conventional transmission arrays have to be in one-to-one correspondence is because there is a deviation in the transmission array. Active reception occurs on one side and on the other side, so that stability can be guaranteed to the greatest extent. But you With only one transmitter and no receiver, it is really unreliable where this thing will fly in the end.

However, judging from the transmission just now, it seems that the accuracy of this method of transmission is still quite high, because those people almost appeared directly around the tank in the form of an encirclement, and the tank became the center of the encirclement in just an instant. .

Those who were teleported did not pause after appearing, but immediately rushed towards the tank as soon as they saw the surrounding environment clearly.

Probably having learned their previous lessons, the group of people who appeared this time had brought equipment specifically designed to deal with tanks. This time they didn't bring any swords, guns, swords or halberds at all, but rushed forward with both hands empty. The first guy who rushed to the tank directly pulled out a square brick-like object from his body and patted it on the tank's long leg.

Given the thickness of the tank's carapace, it certainly wouldn't cause any problems when it was hit by bricks. In fact, the man didn't use much force, he just slapped the thing on the tank, then turned around and ran away.

When the first guy turned around and ran away, I guessed what those things were. Although I didn't know their structure yet, I was sure that these things were definitely bombs. The surface of the thing was obviously coated with strong glue in advance, so it stuck to Tank's leg with just a tap. Then after the man ran away, only a bang was heard, accompanied by a scream, and Tank's leg The legs suddenly tilted inward, and the whole body shook, and he almost fell to the ground. However, bugs have many legs. Even if one leg loses support, the remaining one is enough to support the weight of the tank.

The explosion just now did not break off the tank's leg. Although the bomb was quite powerful, the tank's carapace was not a vegetarian either. However, the thrust generated by this sudden explosion obviously damaged the muscle tissue inside. , so the leg of the tank has been hanging there since then, as if it can no longer use its strength.

After succeeding once, the remaining people were not idle, and immediately took the thing and stuck it on the tank, but the tank also realized that it was a disadvantage. Just like a tank in reality requires the coordination of infantry to exert its maximum combat effectiveness, my tank is not suitable for close combat with these normal-sized humans. Although its size brings an absolute advantage in strength, it is precisely because of this size that Therefore, tanks always feel a little powerless when dealing with these people. After all, he is too big and cannot move as flexibly as a small animal. Facing these players jumping up and down, it is obviously difficult to keep up with their speed.

The so-called specialization in the art, tanks are not used for close combat with people, so it is understandable that they can't deal with these people. (To be continued. If you like this work, you are welcome to vote for recommendations and monthly votes. Your support is my biggest motivation.)
