Chapter 156: Strengthening the Tower Base
"These plastics are very easy to use, especially this 2F0.5B model, which is very suitable for making drones, you can get more plastic for this model." After testing the eight plastics brought by Lu Wei one by one, Kai took a fancy to one of them.
"Okay, from tomorrow onwards, I'll bring you a hundred pounds every day."
According to Jiekai's estimates, every time a drone designed by him is manufactured, it will consume about 500 pounds of plastic, and the scientific research time will take several days, maybe ten days, before the first drone can be officially produced.
However, because there is a spare placement point that has been found, just ten days of research and development time have been set aside, and when the drone is developed, it will prove to be easy to use, which means that Lu Wei will no longer have to go out to find a placement point in person in the future.
That's a great thing.
"Wei, a group of monsters have appeared at the gate of Base 1, whether to open the gate of the base and deal with it."
Kai asked suddenly.
"Hey, Kai, a few mobs in Base 1, you don't need me to deal with them now, you should have experience in this area now, right?"
Lu Wei felt strange, as a manager, his main job was to build defense towers and arrange tower formations, but now the main base is already in an invincible state, and the number of monsters entering the base to adventure these days is gradually decreasing, so there is no need to adjust the tower formation anymore, and when he is not there, Kai can also deal with it very well.
With the launch of a new base, a brand new map, and unchanging monsters, Kai's experience should be able to deal with it enough, so why should he deal with those invaders by himself?
"My friend, we have a different division of labor, it's your job to deal with the monster threat, and I don't have as much computing power to do all the work outside of keeping the base running. Moreover, this is originally a duty given to you by the god of tower defense, and you can't complete it, so why should the god of tower defense hire you as the manager of the base? ”
Kai said with a blank look.
"You mean that I'm not only responsible for dealing with monster threats from one tower defense base, but also with monster threats from all tower defense bases? This...... Do I have that much energy? ”
Lu Wei was dumbfounded. Two or three tower bases are fine, if thousands, tens of thousands of tower bases face the threat of monsters at the same time, how can he deal with it?
Do you want to be so pitiful?
Kai shrugged his shoulders and looked like it wasn't my business, "It's indeed your task, friend, I can't help you." ”
Lu Wei was defeated, so he had to say sadly: "Okay Kai, I'll just do it." ”
After the tower formation was set up on the defensive platform of Base 1, a wave of monsters rushed into Base 1. Of course, because they were all less threatening bee colonies and drones, they were all wiped out under the towers in the end.
In the process, Lu Wei also found a problem.
A serious problem that has always affected the efficiency of the tower array.
That is, whether it is a machine gun tower, a flame tower, a laser tower or other types of towers, except for the upper part of the tower, the tower base and tower shape are very similar, and they are all relatively uniform rectangular columns. The size is the same, the height is the same, and the attack methods are similar.
Thereupon. This leads to the fact that when monsters invade the base, the defense towers on the defense platform can only exert the maximum efficiency if they are built in the first row, while the defense towers built in the back row will have a narrow shooting range and low attack efficiency because they are blocked by the front row. The further back you go, the less efficient it is.
There is a way to solve this problem, and that is to adjust the height of the towers, or adjust the height of the towers so that the towers in the front are lower and the towers in the back are higher. Just like the stands of a soccer field, build cascading positions and each tower gets an open angle of fire for greater efficiency.
Kai was very impressed by this plan, but he still vetoed it, the construction of the defense tower is modular, if the length of the defense tower is different, the size is different, it will seriously reduce the construction efficiency of the defense tower, and the defense system will also be greatly adjusted, the cost is huge, and the possibility of realization is very low.
However, Lu Wei suddenly had a flash of inspiration and thought of another way.
"Kai, can you develop a special modular defense tower base, this kind of base, not only can play the role of raising the defense tower, but also integrate some radar reconnaissance, improve overload or eliminate the function of shield on the base? With this pedestal, it can not only improve the attack efficiency of the rear towers, but also add some auxiliary functions, killing multiple birds with one stone...... How about this kind of pedestal being called a 'fortified tower base'? ”
Lu Wei thought excitedly, getting more and more excited about this genius idea!
Kai listened, his eyes lit up, and he nodded: "Wei, your idea is very good and feasible!" If this kind of strengthened tower base is developed, it is conservatively estimated that the killing efficiency of the tower array will be increased by more than 30%, and I will immediately start the relevant research and development work. ”
Kai immediately added the 'strengthened base' described by Lu Wei to the list of scientific research.
Lu Wei laughed, as Kai said, the killing efficiency of the tower array has increased by 30%, and in the new tower defense base, the threat ability of the monster will drop by a notch, and the loss of the energy core will also be reduced to a new level.
In short, everything is moving in a favorable direction.
……
Early the next morning, Lu Wei changed into a loose practice uniform, drove to the suburbs in the west of the city.
……
Today's Zhenhua Guoshu Hall, the atmosphere is a little weird and dull, the Guoshu coaches of each class have received a call from General Manager Tang to them, asking to gather in the conference room, saying that they are going to have a meeting to announce some new management decisions, and all coaches must be present on time.
On the way, four old men with gray sideburns walked side by side, their eyes as sharp as eagles, and they discussed in a low voice as they walked.
"What does Tang Wanqing, this female doll, want to do? I have to have a meeting at every turn, and I can't afford to toss this old bone. ”
A tall and thin old man said dissatisfiedly.
"The purpose of this doll is not so simple, the opening of the Hongmen will probably be aimed at a few of us old bones!"
A chubby old man in the middle said.
A short and fat old man next to him looked indignant: "Alas! Now the little doll, I don't know how to respect the old and love the young, the virtues passed down by the ancestors have been forgotten completely, I also heard that the female doll invited a young man to come over, to give us a little color quietly, you say, what is this called? ”
The short and fat old man looked angry.
"If the Tang girl doll wants to do this, then we old bones can't swallow our anger so much, under my golden wooden staff, maybe I will splash some blood stars again, so that those dolls know that they can't be bullied!"
The old man with long eyebrows was holding a gilded iron crutch, and he knocked lightly on the ground, and a pinch of powder appeared on the surface of the big bluestone slab. (To be continued......)
