Chapter 17: A Great Future
Tower defense base.
Lu Wei held a laptop in his hand, brought some snacks, and came to the main control hall of the base in high spirits.
The area of the main control hall is about 60 square meters, and the usable area is about 50 square meters after removing the console in the middle, so in the past few days, Lu Wei has moved a lot of things over one after another.
There are small square tables, single beds, office swivel chairs, lockers, and water dispensers, each weighing no more than 50 pounds.
However, due to the restrictions on the number and weight of the plane shuttle standard transmission, in the past few days, Lu Wei has only moved a dozen items in total, but it also gives the main control hall a bit of an office taste.
There is also electricity here, Kai pulled a wire over, output 220V voltage, and the electrical appliances that Lu Wei brought to the base can also be used normally.
After brewing a cup of hot coffee and sitting in a soft swivel chair, with a pleasant grinding sound between the wheels and the metal floor, Lu Wei comfortably drank a cup of coffee to refresh himself and opened the resource center.
――
【Resource Center】
Energy core: 21
Normal Resources: 1608
Special Resources: 153
Towers: 16/48
――
Then habitually open the scientific research center.
――
【Research Center】
Secondary Machine Gun Tower (buildable)
Level 2 Flame Tower (buildable)
Level 2 laser tower (buildable)
Cannon turret (buildable)
Impact tower (developed in 2 hours)
Control tower (developed in 41 hours)
――
Seeing the control tower under development, Lu Wei was slightly stunned, this scientific research sequence is a bit special.
"Kai, the power of the impact tower is very small, and the control tower can display invisible monsters...... But the effect is not so great, why study these two kinds of towers? ”
Kai shook his head and explained: "Wei, after a while, among the monsters that invade the base, there will be more and more monsters with invisible abilities, the control tower can display the monsters in the invisible state, and the impact tower can attack without dead ends...... These two towers will play a big role in the next challenges. ”
"Isn't there a tower of flames? The Flame Tower should be able to destroy most of the invisible monsters, right? Lu Wei said.
"The Flame Tower is useless against monsters with protective shields, you see, outside the gate of the base now, there are traces of protective shield crabs."
Lu Wei's spirit was shocked, protective shield crab?
Kai brought up the information of the protective shield crab.
[Protective Shield Crab: The Protective Shield Crab has a protective shield that can eliminate attacks, which can play a very effective role in resisting heat-based attacks, machine gun towers, cannon turrets can quickly reduce its effectiveness, once the protective shield disappears, it becomes very fragile, it carries two energy cores]
The Shield Crab looks similar to the Crab, but the biggest difference is that the Shield Crab has a hemispherical transparent shield wrapped around it, which can eliminate the attacks released by the tower, and only after the shield is broken, the Shield Crab will take real damage.
Not only that, monsters with protective shields can effectively resist heat-based attacks, such as flame towers and laser towers, and it is difficult to penetrate the protective shield, and there is almost no damage to monsters.
Therefore, in terms of overall comparison, the threat level of protective shield crabs is much higher than that of ordinary crabs!
"Wei, there are about 600 monsters gathered outside the base today, including 5 protective shield crabs, you have to properly arrange the tower array."
"I know."
Lu Wei took out his laptop and opened a software tool to conduct mathematical simulations.
Lu Wei found that Kai, as the intelligent brain of the base, has strong logical analysis ability, but the data processing is very weak, such as the machine gun tower, Kai can make it, but he can't use numbers to visually represent what the attack power of the machine gun tower is? What is the kill value?
There is no one mathematical standard.
Lu Wei improved this, he played a game, and expressed the attack, range, and firing frequency of the defense tower in data, with a full value of 100, and finally, established a standard model in a mathematical modeling software.
As in the data of the first machine gun turret:
【1st Class Machine Gun Tower】
Attack: 3
Range: 35
Firing frequency: 100
Stats for upgrading to a secondary machine gun turret:
【Secondary Machine Gun Tower】
Attack: 10
Range: 40
Firing frequency: 100
Judging from the attack stats alone, the power of the second-level machine gun tower is more than three times stronger than that of the first-level machine gun tower.
In this way, after completing the data, and then using mathematical modeling tools, Lu Wei can easily arrange a most powerful tower array.
……
After more than half an hour of simulation, Lu Wei built two more cannon turrets in the middle of the defensive platform.
Then, six first-level machine gun towers on the ten-type section in the middle of the platform were upgraded to the second-level.
With the remaining 608 ordinary resources and 53 special resources, Lu Wei upgraded the laser tower near the energy center from a first-level green tower to a second-level yellow tower.
The ability of the second-level laser tower to heat monsters is 3 seconds, and for monsters without a protective shield, it only takes 3 seconds to form fatal piercing damage to them.
So far, Lu Wei has a total of 2 first-level machine gun towers, 1 second-level flame tower, 10 second-level machine gun towers, 4 first-level cannon turrets, and 1 second-level laser tower...... There are a total of 18 defense towers.
"From the perspective of resources, now, the ordinary resources of the base are basically enough, and what is lacking is special resources."
"The number of monsters outside the base is also increasing, and they are getting stronger and stronger, and they have become the main source of special resources......"
"Kai, open the vents and the base gate, and let the monsters in!"
"Understood!"
……
Half an hour later.
The fifth wave of monsters that invaded the base were all wiped out by the towers.
Lu Wei's eyes have been on the protective shield crab, that protective shield is indeed strong, the high-temperature flames spewed out by the flame tower are all isolated, and most of the bullets fired by the machine gun tower are also blocked by the rebound, only a small number of bullets can penetrate the shield and cause damage to the protective shield crab.
The most powerful thing is the cannon turret, Lu Wei estimates that its attack value of up to 25 is not vegetarian, and one or two shots will defeat the protective shield of the protective shield crab! With two or three more shells, it will be permanently taken away, and all five shield crabs will die under the cannon turret.
"Protective shield crab, justsoso"
After taking a sip of the coffee that had become a little cold, Lu Wei looked at the monster corpse on the ground with contempt and pouted angrily.
The number of energy cores has not been lost, but has increased from 21 to 22.
"Kai, give me the data on the effectiveness of each tower today."
"Flame Tower No. 1 8868, Cannon Tower No. 2 7199, Cannon Tower No. 3 7085, Machine Gun Tower No. 4 6966......"
These data were calculated by Kai using intelligent analysis during the attack of the defense tower, and the effectiveness of each defense tower was turned into specific data, so that Lu Wei could summarize and count these data.
The most efficient tower array is not randomly combined, it needs to be designed after rigorous mathematical calculations, Lu Wei's mathematics is average, but after he summarizes these data, he can establish a simple mathematical model, which does not require much brain cells, and can combine an efficient tower array to deal with the long-term challenges brought by monsters.
The best effect is: in this endless mode of one wave a day, he doesn't need to use his brain much, just sit and harvest the energy core.
Just looking at the 22 energy cores in the energy center, 10,000, I don't know when I will be able to collect them?
"Wei, in the past few days, the base has activated multiple subsystems, and the demand for energy is relatively large, so the speed of energy nucleus condensation has slowed down......"
"Good news for you, in another four hours, the number of energy cores in the base will increase to 24, the efficiency of the turbine will be doubled, and it will enter the full operation stage......
"After the turbine is fully operational, the speed at which the base gathers energy cores will reach about 60 a day, and the base will soon enter the stage of rapid development."
"Sixty a day?" Lu Wei's eyes lit up, this speed is okay.
Moreover, according to the time flow rate between the earth and the tower defense base, the earth has passed one day, and the tower defense base has passed 1.62 days, multiplied by 60, which is equivalent to generating nearly 100 energy cores a day.
Divided by 10,000, it would take a little more than three months for him to have an energy core of his own.
The power of the energy core, Lu Wei also asked Kai, Kai can't use words to describe the specific effect of the energy core acting on people, but for this base, the energy of an energy core can maintain this base at full capacity for a day.
At that time, Lu Wei stayed for a day? With the scale of this base and the power consumption of major systems, the power consumed by the base should be at least 100,000 kWh a day.
1 energy core = 100,000 kWh?
Tough, too tough!
"Kai, I see, I'm just a little bit slow."
"Slow? Wei, you're wrong, it's not slow at all, this is just the beginning. ”
"This base is only in its most basic state, it can still be upgraded!"
"As long as we accumulate enough resources, this base can be upgraded once and twice...... The output of energy cores will be doubled on the basis of the current one! ”
"In addition, in the future, the scientific research center will develop a base car, this base car, with more than 90% of the functions of the tower defense base, as long as it is driven out of the base, for it to find a suitable foothold, then, the base car will become the second tower defense base...... Then the third, then the fourth, and finally all over the plane! Kay paints a picture.
What, what?
Lu Wei was stunned, can this tower defense base still be upgraded?
Not only that, but can a new base vehicle be developed in the later stage, so that it can grow into a new tower defense base?
"Friend, you say, by that time, how many energy cores will we receive?" Kai asked with a laugh.
"This, this...... Should...... It should be a lot, right? ”
Lu Wei tried his best to digest the news that Kai gave him, and his speech became stammering, and the excitement in his heart could not be contained.
"Hahaha, do a good job, friend, the god of tower defense will not treat anyone who serves him badly, as long as you do a good job, you will eventually get everything you want."
"Mm-hmm, Kai, I'm going to do a good job!"
