Chapter 223 The Expedition Begins!
After waiting for the cooling of the super-time transmission at Fengchu Base, Lu Chen led everyone back to Tengxun Base.
Lu Chen's invasion of Haicheng Conference was originally intended to gather intelligence and see if there was a chance to win over a few bases.
Unexpectedly, after it was clear that the enemy was the Anthem Organization, he also won over three bases.
From the two bases of Sanyi and Fengchu alone, Lu Chen has obtained 2 mechanical hearts, 41 second-level crystal cores and 8 third-level crystal cores.
Except for the lack of fourth-level crystal cores, this trophy is almost the same as the trophy obtained by defeating the Salvation Army.
You must know that this was only one night, and there was no large-scale battle!
As soon as he was teleported back to the base, Lu Chen assigned a new task to Yue Ji Lin Zhuang.
It is unknown when the Anthem Organization will launch its attack again, and preparations must be made as quickly as possible.
Rescuing Baosteel Group is an important task to demonstrate strength and win over people's hearts.
If it succeeds, recruiting other bases in the future is a piece of cake.
But if it fails, not only will it pay a heavy price, but it will take more energy to form an alliance in the future.
In order to ensure the success of this mission, Lu Chen must complete the upgrade of the Earth God before the opponent attacks.
He asked Yue Ji to inform Rong Hubiao to drive Qingtian to the underground to accommodate the Earth God and the Fire God.
Then he asked Lin Zhuang to inform the captains of each team to select the best and send 50 elite chariots to the expedition.
Haicheng City is nearly twice as large as Nancheng, and Baosteel Group and Tengxun are located at the north and south ends of Haicheng.
The journey is long, and small troops are easier to control and advance faster.
After arranging the tasks, Yue Ji and others turned and left, and Lu Chen opened the chariot upgrade panel.
He wanted to use all the newly acquired 8 crystal cores to increase the chances of winning this battle.
Without saying much, Lu Chen directly opened the skill panels of Thunderstorm and Qingtian. Now they are the only two chariots that can be upgraded.
Thunderstorm Upgrade Panel
Armor
Zero Armor: Upgrade the vehicle body armor to Zero Armor. Zero Armor is neutron armor with higher density and performance. It can greatly improve the armor level and reduce the armor loss caused by energy weapons. The required third-level crystal core is 8/1.
Weapons
Beam Energy Laser: Upgrade the cleavage laser to beam energy laser. The laser release will become more flexible and can be used continuously.
Not only can it be used while moving, but also the direction can be adjusted when using it. The laser can be fired at any stage of energy storage and heat up during continuous shooting. The required third-level crystal core is 8/2.
Note: After reaching the maximum power, the laser can only last for two seconds, and then it will enter cooling due to overheating.
Movement
Turret Mode: Cancel the track cover, the mobile system is transformed into a support system, the body shape is significantly changed, and the tank will be fixed on the ground to enter the turret mode.
After entering the turret mode, the tank will lose its mobility, weapon damage will increase by 50%, tank defense will increase by 50%, the muzzle adjustment range will be significantly increased, and it can attack sky units. The required third-level crystal core is 8/2.
Note: It takes nearly 1 minute to switch modes, please choose carefully.
Energy
Cold nuclear fusion energy: Unlock the nuclear fusion fuel chamber, trigger nuclear fusion to provide energy for the tank, energy acquisition and safety are far greater than fission energy, and the required third-level crystal core is 8/1.
Technology
Vehicle space: The number of super tanks that can be collected is increased to four, and the tank repair blessing BUFF is obtained. The super vehicle in the space will get 1.0 times the repair speed, no crystal core is required, and it has been obtained.
Sky Upgrade Panel
Armor
Zero Armor: Upgrade the body armor to zero armor. Zero armor is neutron armor with higher density and performance. It can greatly improve the armor level and reduce the armor loss caused by energy weapons. The required third-level crystal core is 8/1.
Weapons
Earthquake: The armor of the entire tank will shake violently towards the ground under the action of the thruster, emitting a strong shock wave with the tank as the center.
After upgrading, the damage and stun time of the shock wave will be increased, and the armor-piercing effect will be increased, which can significantly destroy any form of enemy armor. The required third-level crystal core is 8/2.
Movement
Shield attachment: When an ordinary tank stays in the super vehicle space for more than 5 minutes, it will immediately obtain a power barrier that can withstand a large amount of kinetic energy damage for 5 seconds. The required third-level crystal core is 8/2.
Energy
Cold nuclear fusion fuel tank: Unlock the nuclear fusion fuel chamber, trigger nuclear fusion to provide energy for the tank, increase the efficiency of energy conversion, and provide more high-quality fuel for the tank in the space. The required third-level crystal core is 8/1.
Technology
Super space loading: Increase the loading space of ordinary tanks to 20. Ordinary tanks can refuel in the loading space without crystal cores. It has been obtained.
Other functions are to be unlocked
After thinking for a while, Lu Chen put in 8 crystal cores.
He upgraded Thunderstorm's turret mode and beam laser, Sky's shield addition and Earthquake.
Offense is the best defense, and all 8 crystal cores were used on offensive skills.
A blue data line floated out, and a pleasant mechanical sound came.
After using up the crystal core, Lu Chen kept thinking about the strategy of this battle in his mind.
First of all, unless necessary, hyperspace teleportation does not need to be used.
Secondly, the Earth God and the Vulcan must be recovered as soon as possible, and then the modification department must carry out preliminary modifications.
Then the main force set out on the road, with the Colossus leading the way, and Thunderstorm carrying 3 small super tanks.
Qingtian carried 20 heavy artillery tanks that could charge into battle, and 50 elite tanks followed the convoy.
With this plan, the expeditionary force and scale were clear.
After waiting for a while, the tank upgrade was completed.
Lu Chen drove the Colossus to the center of the base, and the expeditionary force had been assembled.
Rong Hubiao set out first under Lu Chen's command to recover the Vulcan and the Earth God.
There were still 50 heavy armored vehicles and the remaining super tanks left in the square.
Due to time constraints, Lu Chen briefly issued a pre-war declaration, emphasizing the importance of this battle.
After that, Lu Chen gave an order, the base gate opened, and the main force rushed out of the base in an orderly manner.
Lu Chen drove the Colossus to the front, and the route planning for this time had been completed.
Because the Trinity Base and the Phoenix Base were located exactly on the marching route, the hyperspace communication could just cover the entire marching route.
Lu Chen estimated that the march time this time was about 2 hours.
During these two hours, Baosteel Group had to rely on its own combat power to defend.
The night was long, and the team's first expedition in Haicheng City began.
This was also the team's first direct battle with the Shengong Group.
This battle will affect the future direction
