Chapter 370: Equipment for "Cannon Fodder".

These people who signed up wrote in their registration documents that they understood the hints and were willing to be tested...... At first glance, it is a person in the intelligence industry before the crisis.

Shen Chao handed over this part of the recruitment work to Custer, and he himself was mainly responsible for the recruitment of military members. So far, Custer has recruited six of them and begun to build the framework of the intelligence agency.

It's worth noting that although they have just completed a major organizational expansion, recruiting close to 600 new people, a huge increase in numbers. But their organizational structure has not changed much.

There are still so many members of Class A and Class B clearances, and these are the same people who are responsible for the formulation and command of various plans, and the new support personnel only have D-level security clearance. It is completely impossible to participate in decision-making.

This permission only gives them relatively free access to areas exclusive to the Council, such as important places such as Space Station Zero, but this does not mean that these people have become core members of the Council in one step.

In a tactical sense, the 400 new combat recruits and logistical support personnel are "sacrificial members". It's not as expensive as a class A and B backbone member.

The purpose of recruiting these people is to assist the work of high-authority members of class A and B, and to serve as cannon fodder for these high-ranking members! Therefore, both combatants and logistics personnel can only receive degraded technical support.

For example, the Interdimensional Marines, who were the best of the thousands before them, deserved to be reloaded.

However, given the short time they have been in the service, the high-level members have not yet fully trusted these newcomers, so there is no need to think about the nano suit and ghost equipment of the gods.

But this is not to say that Shen Chao will equip them with some inferior equipment, after all, they are going to develop in the direction of multi-faceted management, even if it is cannon fodder, it is better than other people's cannon fodder equipment!

Shen Chao equipped the newcomers with all kinds of light and heavy weapons in line with the formation of his battalion-level combat team according to the second-level high standards, and the firearms were still mainly mass effect equipment.

However, the firearms they used were naturally not the big road goods worth one or two hundred star coins they had obtained before, but were replaced by high-level transformation products worth thousands of star coins.

The lethality and range have been increased several times. It's definitely not as good as ghost equipment, but it's also comparable to the equipment that wealthy high-level mercenaries can use.

In addition to weapons, the personal armor assigned to them is also a set of high-grade equipment with more than 200,000 star coins. It's all imitation N7 armor. There is both standard N7 Combat Armor and N7 Defender Assault Armor, which looks thick and resistant to blows.

As for why all the dispensing is imitation and not the original? And why are these imitations several times more expensive than Starlink's originals? It's a little more complicated.

First of all, the original goods are not distributed because Shen Chao discriminates against newcomers. After all, although these people are new to the board, the psychological screening test is also universal. The reliability of the personnel is still very strong. Shen Chao would not equip them with fake and shoddy equipment in order to show the level gap.

The reason he was handing out these replicas was because they hadn't been able to buy a few pieces of genuine N7 armor when they were in the Mass Effect world.

At that time, when they began to purchase armor on a large scale, it was already a galactic combat readiness period, and Starlink had stopped selling N7 armor and was fully stockpiling military resources to prepare for war. Although he has a lot of authority within Starlink, he can't get a large number of original goods from Starlink.

After making sure that they couldn't get enough of the original goods, they focused on counterfeiting, but fortunately, as shadow brokers, there were still quite a few companies under their command that could manufacture high-end equipment.

So they first got the full production number of N7 A through the guò shadow broker intelligence network. Then he sent the necessary amount of jù to a high-level arsenal under the shadow broker, and asked them to urgently copy such a batch of N7 armor.

Although it is an imitation, this batch of armor surpasses the original in terms of quality and price. Basically represents the highest level of mass effect armor quality in the world of mass-produced armor.

In addition, in the later stages of production, the armor was upgraded according to Hargrave's proposed renovation and construction, and some supporting functional modules were added.

Although the armor that is now distributed to newcomers is still similar to the original N7 armor in appearance, in fact, all functions have been strengthened to a certain extent, and some new functional modules have been added.

The first is the shield. As one of the most important items of individual survivability, they have upgraded the shields of this batch of armor, reaching an average of 3 times the shield value of the original N7 armor. The protection is definitely much more resistant than the frontal armor of the tank in the main plane.

In the low-tech plane, this powerful shield value alone is enough to make them quite invincible in regular combat. Not to mention the other feature updates.

In addition to upgrading their shields, they have also made considerable upgrades to other abilities of this batch of armor, such as adding expensive optical camouflage equipment to each armor set, allowing them to be invisible in visible light environments.

This ability has proven to be very useful in the low-tech plane, directly helping combatants turn the tide of battle against an enemy with sheer numerical superiority. So it's mandatory to equip every piece of armor.

In addition to the optical camouflage, the armor's built-in reconnaissance and electronic warfare capabilities have also been targeted, and all the reconnaissance and electronic warfare modules in the helmet have been replaced with newer, more expensive models, allowing them to detect enemy situations in a variety of ways.

The new Combat Coordination System on the in-helmet HUD will help them more effectively coordinate platoon-level tactics and strengthen their team capabilities.

In addition to this, this N7 armor also adds the ability to fly, and if needed, it can be fitted with a small plasma thruster that weighs only 5 kilograms.

Once mounted, personnel can fly individually within a radius of 5,000 kilometers and at a maximum speed of Mach 3. Of course, in order to operate this new device well, special training is required.

Although in the world of Mass Effect, individual aircraft are a disaster, they belong to the defense but not defense, speed without speed, maneuverability without maneuverability, and no strong firepower.

And the air defense technology in the Mass Effect world is very pillbox, so in that world, individual aircraft are completely synonymous with cups.

On the battlefield there, the launch of individual aircraft is a dead word. There is no real tactical value. But in other worlds where air defense is not so strong, individual flying has a huge tactical advantage.

Especially in the low-tech world, individual aircraft can even help them achieve absolute tactical superiority, so this batch of imitation N7+ can be equipped with plasma thrusters.

In addition to individual equipment, vehicles have naturally undergone necessary upgrades before they are released. Both the Hammerhead Chariot and the Space Fighter are the best products they can buy on the market.

All systems in these vehicles have been upgraded. Change the engine, change the main gun, change the high-quality armor, better shields, electronic warfare jammers......

After these modifications, the value of these vehicles has increased by an average of 2 to 4 times. The combat effectiveness has also been at least doubled, and it is completely invincible in the low-tech plane.

Therefore, although the overall equipment level of the newcomers is still not as good as the core members of class A and B, they can also defeat their current potential enemies in other planes. For example, the world of Blade Runner that they are currently going to.

This time, Shen Chao took these hundreds of people to return to his mother plane with Roy, not for fun, but to recruit a large number of high-quality laborers. In particular, his fleet is in dire need of high-potential talents like the Duplicants to participate in the construction.

Of course, he didn't pin all his hopes on this short-term trip, when the Budapest CIC was twice as many people as normal.

The new personnel are all pilots they have just recruited, and they are visiting and learning the operation of the soldiers. Learn how to maneuver a battleship.

Shen Chao wanted to see if he could train some of them to become the operators of the battleship. If he can, it means that he can recruit a large number of basic military talents from the low-tech world and train them into high-tech military talents.

Even if you don't think about it, understanding the process of operating a warship is a must for starfighter pilots, and learning this knowledge is very important for them.

Because it is impossible for the air units to be formed in the future to fight alone without the cooperation of the fleet, the pilots must understand the common sense of warship operation in order to cooperate with the fleet to accomplish various strategic and tactical objectives.

At this time, each system had completed the self-inspection, and Shen Chao nodded with satisfaction after seeing the battleship indicators on the hologram in front of him turn green one by one, they can go.

"Attention everyone, this is the captain, we will start crossing soon, for many of you this is the first actual crossing operation, but don't be nervous ......"

Before leaving, Shen Chao remembered that there were too many newcomers on the ship now, so he said a few words on the ship's radio to appease the hundreds of newcomers on board.

Their warship had just left the main plane, Space Station Zero, and was making attitude adjustments in the outer orbit of Jupiter, ready to depart. After the announcement, Shen Chao ordered the battleship's mass effect core to be turned on, and then held the command platform and closed his eyes......

A few seconds later, the all-white Budapest disappeared into the starry sky of the main plane and appeared in the solar system of the target plane.

"Navigation Department, where are we located?" Shen Chao asked after opening his eyes, he was sure that he had sent the Budapest to the target world.

But locating a location in space is much more difficult than locating a location on Earth, probably because of familiarity, and it is easy for him to locate Earth in various planes every time.

Although there are often deviations when positioning the Earth, the errors are very small, only a few kilometers away. He's also relaxed when it comes to positioning.

But when it comes to locating his position in space, his error becomes very large, and he even took the Budapest to Pluto's orbit in another dimension! (To be continued.) )
