It was a four- or five-day journey from the First Vault to the Grey Iron Ruins, and the convoy had to be stationed in the wilderness.

On the first day of departure, at dusk.

Under Han Xiao's instructions, the convoy found a safe terrain in the field and rested on the spot, it was more dangerous to travel after dark, and many wild beasts were active at night.

The Dark Web soldiers patrol in shifts near the camp, and Han Xiao convenes a meeting of the team's key figures, assistant Huang Yu, engineering supervisor Coney Fury, and guard captain Liu Chao.

On the table unfolded the blueprint of the Grey Iron Ruins renovation plan, Conifrey spoke eloquently.

"The initial renovation of the whole city was originally scheduled for three months, sweeping away miscellaneous plants, expelling wild animals, cleaning up the rubble, and then completing the shelter infrastructure, laying the power grid, water power, etc., but this is the standard plan of 30,000 workers, we only have 1,000 people in the first month, and we can't do anything, it's difficult to even clean up the ruins." Conivery was helpless.

Han Xiao nodded noncommittally and looked at Huang Yu, "Do you have any suggestions?" ”

Huang Yu said perfunctorily: "No." ”

Sensing Huang Yu's attitude of ignoring him, Han Xiao roughly guessed Huang Yu's thoughts, and was reluctant to be his assistant, Han Xiao didn't care, he didn't need an assistant in the first place, so he turned his head and said: "Manpower is not a problem, I plan to complete the blueprint construction in a month." ”

Conifrey was stunned, "That's at least 100,000 people, and even the First Vault doesn't have that many workers." ”

"I have a way." Han Xiao didn't say it explicitly.

Huang Yu watched coldly, the employment fee of 100,000 workers was sky-high, and he might not be able to invite so many people if he was rich, he didn't know where Han Xiao's confidence came from.

Liu Chao suddenly pressed the earphones, and said urgently: "Your Excellency Black Ghost, a plane is approaching!" ”

"Go out and have a look."

Walking out of the tent, the escort of the team looked at the sky vigilantly at this time, and in the dark night sky, a large plane with flashing signal lights was approaching, I don't know whether it was friend or foe.

"It's okay, that's what I called an airdrop." Han Xiao smiled.

The plane flew overhead, dropping several huge supply boxes strapped together, parachuting them, and landing not far from the camp, with the boxes prominently emblemmed by Ferrion's markings.

Han Xiao used his connections to let the Farian plane airdrop a large number of mechanical parts, which naturally cost money, but he is now rich and doesn't care about this expense.

There was a false alarm, and everyone breathed a sigh of relief.

Huang Yu was secretly frightened, he could call the airdrop of the veteran arms group Farian at will, and the black ghost's connections were wider than he imagined.

These parts are worth millions, Han Xiao asked people to move to the logistics vehicle, and began to make machinery on a large scale, and now that he has strong assets, he can make all kinds of combat machinery with his hands and feet, which are just used to protect the team.

The mechanic is best known for his crowd tactics.

For the next two days of the journey, Han Xiao was bored working in the engineering truck.

……

The convoy came to a desert where the sun was shining brightly, and the heat made the sand scorching like a soldering iron, and the surface air distorted its vision.

The convoy stopped under a Barbera tree, endemic to the Aquamarine Desert and known as the "Umbrella of Life", which resembles an island of shade and insulates from the heat, and the sap is sweet enough to suck directly to quench your thirst.

The population was dry, soldiers patrolled, and everyone was sweating.

Rumble –

In the distance, the desert suddenly flooded like waves, and dense huge beetles broke through the ground, each of which was more than half a meter long, with brown and shiny carapace and hideous appearance, six pairs of chelicerae and two carapace pincers, and the sound of squirming and activity was like ocean waves, and the swarm of insects surged towards the Barbera tree.

"Beast Attack!"

When the alarm sounded, three hundred soldiers hurriedly raised their guns and took position, and found that there were swarms of insects surging in all directions, like a sea of beetles, with nowhere to escape, and they all showed horror on their faces, and the palms of their guns trembled slightly.

Desert Blood Armor, a social creature that inhabits the desert, a powerful desert predator, where no grass grows, there are at least tens of thousands of them here.

"Get in the car, get in the car, and make a road!" Huang Yu hurriedly shouted, and then he jumped onto the helicopter in three steps and two steps, urging the pilot to take off quickly.

In the face of so many insect swarms, no one could have the heart to fight, and when he heard Huang Yu's order, he was about to get into the car and escape, when Han Xiao walked out of the engineering vehicle and said, "Don't panic, everyone is in position and ready to meet the enemy." ”

Captain Liu Chao hurriedly said: "There are too many insect swarms, we can't defend in all directions, and there is a high probability that we will suffer heavy losses in the event of an engagement......"

Huang Yu shouted, "Black ghost, hurry up and get on the plane." ”

Han Xiao waved his hand.

Huang Yu scolded secretly, seeing that the swarm was getting closer and closer, he couldn't take care of Han Xiao, so he asked the pilot to take off immediately, and the pilot was also afraid, so he immediately obeyed the order to start the plane, the rotor started, and the helicopter left the ground.

The ground troops did not dare to disobey Han Xiao's orders, and nervously watched as the swarm approached rapidly.

At this time, Han Xiao took out his tablet and pressed it a few times.

Buzz –

Twelve combat rangers drove out of several logistics vehicles, their triangular tracks spinning, and the speed was no less than that of the cars, and everyone watched in amazement as these ranger robots quickly dispersed in all directions, like steel guards, the cold metallic color reflected the speckled sunlight through the shade of the trees, as if golden scales had grown.

These rangers are the latest improved version of the 2.5 generation, Han Xiao has upgraded the drawings by several levels, and he is not what he used to be, the basic attributes of the machines he created have increased a lot, and the quality has also reached blue.

The 2.5 Combat Ranger is all equipped with an automatic fire control system, which enhances the firepower and battery life of the magazine, and the height is about the same as that of humans.

When the task prompt appeared, Han Xiao guessed that the road would not be peaceful, so he called for an airdrop and built a large number of machines in the past two days.

Han Xiao's manufacturing speed had become very fast, and the Ranger robot that he had to build for several days when he was level twenty could now be completed in only a few dozen minutes.

When the mechanic's manufacturing speed exceeds a critical point, it can be temporarily manufactured on the battlefield, as long as there are materials, weapons will be endless, this is the ability of senior mechanics, you need to learn [second-level assembly], and it is also an important reason for the rise of the 3.0 mechanical system.

"Go, take down all the metal discs in the car and arrange them in all directions."

The dark web soldier obeyed him at this time, and hurriedly did so, a total of twenty metal discs, after placing them on the ground, Han Xiao started the program and began to unfold the deformation, the base was inserted into the sand to fix it, and the folded modules were assembled into each other into a barrel, and it only took four or five seconds to unfold the whole process.

These are folding small turrets, and Han Xiao has also upgraded the drawings to automate intelligent fire control.

Looking at the thick and dark barrels, the soldiers felt a little relieved.

The swarm approached within 400 meters, and the 2.5 generation rangers and small turrets opened fire at the same time, centered on the camp under the Barbera tree, and a rain of steel bloomed in all directions.

The rain of bullets was overwhelming, and the sound of guns and cannons was uniform!

Da Da -

In an instant, countless green slurries burst out of the swarm, and in the face of human-made killing weapons, the proud carapaces of these desert blood armor claws were as fragile as eggs, and steel and fire pierced through the giant beetles.

The four hundred meters outside the camp became a moat, leaving countless insect corpses, the insect swarm could not enter an inch, the desert was wet with their blood, and after a salvo, the insect swarm was at least a third less.

Several Rangers drove out of the camp, equipped with Sunworm flamethrowers, cone-shaped flames that screaked at the swarms, and the pincers of the Desert Blood Armor could not match the Rangers' Taipin armor at all.

Ferocious firepower, a complete one-sided killing.

This is the violence of the mechanic!

Group battles are the advantage of the mechanical system, and the supernatural and martial artists may be very capable of fighting, but their physical strength is limited.

Of course, the limit of mechanics is money, this batch of mechanical creations is worth millions, even a 1.0 max level player can hardly afford it, and the ammunition cost is enough to drag down any player's wallet, and every second is thousands of steel-core armor-piercing bullets.

Funding is a long-term problem that has plagued the mechanical department, the formation of a mechanical corps is a more powerful mechanical combat school, and the same cost is the most, when the average strength of the enemy becomes stronger, it needs a higher level of technology to form a mechanical corps, and the cost will rise exponentially. It is difficult for general mechanical players to play without turning the legion flow, even if they smash the pot and sell iron to form a legion, the loss in the battle will be difficult for the user to bear, and the legion flow is generally used as a hole card, Han Xiao is not worried about the problem of funds, after all, there is a way to make money. However, he didn't want to go through the Legion flow for the time being, but only planned to build a simple escort regiment with enough firepower when necessary.

Liu Chao had been holding a submachine rifle, ready to wait for the swarm to enter the range of 300 meters before firing, but the swarm was always stopped by the rain of steel bullets 400 meters away.

His hands were sore, and he couldn't find a chance to fire.

"It's too much firepower."

Liu Chao glanced at the turret next to him that was suddenly spewing out bullets, the automatic push and pull bolt was like a piston cylinder, the bullet casings crackled and threw to the ground, and a few bullets bounced in his face.

Swallowing his saliva, Liu Chao found that he had nothing to do, the mechanical creation of the black ghost had taken care of all the enemies, and the guards equipped by the dark web were not useful at all, and they were not needed at all.
