Chapter 154: Research Makes the Beast Progress
In the valley, a dark shadow summoned a spinyback, focused on the spinyback, pulled out a thorn, and stabbed at the metal fragment.
With a ding, the thorn bounced open, leaving the metal fragment unharmed.
The Shadow summoned several more lizardmen, causing them to spit acid. However, after soaking in the acid for a full ten minutes, the metal fragments remained intact and showed no signs of corrosion.
The dark shadow thought for a moment, then said, "Digest...... Ten ...... needed Dawn. ”
"Completely?"
"Need ...... I don't know ......."
The black shadow in the center flickered, and after a moment of thought, more than a hundred eyes were fixed on the metal fragment at the same time. Its gaze converged into a pale blue beam of light, slowly slicing through the piece of metal.
The central shadow splits the metal fragment in two, throwing half of it to the remaining largest clump of shadows, saying, "Complete." ”
The shadow swallowed the fragment.
The central shadow tossed the remaining fragments to the spit shadow and said, "The fastest." ”
The black shadow swallowed the fragments as well.
Immediately, the central black shadow projected the image of the Doomsday Shadow Fortress, and you could clearly see the attack and defense process of the beast tide and the Federation warriors. The black shadows watched the whole battle silently, and the black shadows in the center returned to a certain part of the image, and a few beams of eyes shone on the umbrella anti-aircraft missile that had just taken off into the air.
"Critical. ”
The eyes of the other three black shadows floated, obviously all thinking seriously. Eventually, one of the dark shadows said, "Yes...... Settle. ”
The images dispersed, and a small black shadow projected three more images, one of which was the No. 2 base of Lin Xi and Chu Jungui, and the other two were the survival bases that had just been established. The gates of the base are marked with a distinct pirate flag. Judging from the scale, there are already thousands of fighters in each of the two bases. In contrast, Base 2 is particularly shabby and thin, and few people do not say it, and even the fence has not been repaired.
The black shadow in the center swept his gaze, circled the base of the two pirate flags, and said, "Extinguish!"
However, the other three black shadows all looked at Base 2, feeling that the central black shadow seemed to be missing something.
"Raise. "The central shadow has always been succinct and horrible.
The valley fell silent again, and the shadows seemed to be tired, and many of their eyes disappeared one after another, leaving only a few eyes staring around, and a few more dedicated to looking at the sky and the valley mouth.
At Base 2, Lin Xi didn't know that he had just become the subject of discussion in the beast tide. She summoned all her brains to the conference room, projected a map of the area around the base, and said, "I just thought about what we're most afraid of right now." Then the conclusion is very simple, we are most afraid of the speed of the beast tide. Or rather, we need more reaction time, so that our fighters who are out there to collect resources come back, and also let those who rest and study in the base return to combat posts. ”
Everyone nodded, and that was true.
Lin Xi took in the reactions of the people around him, and then said, "So, we need to expand the scope of reconnaissance and early warning. Last time Hathaway designed a reconnaissance ...... machine, and it works very well. I've improved it a little bit, and the parameters are all in the blueprint, so let's see if there are any other ideas for improvement?"
The design plan released by Lin Xi is also in the shape of a missile, but it is much smaller, and the range has been reduced to 300 kilometers.
"This reconnaissance ...... machine, which can maintain a daily patrol within a range of 100 km. It is still powered by energy batteries, and after recycling, we only need to replace the batteries. ”
The new reconnaissance aircraft can effectively expand the security coverage of the entire base, and there is no objection to investing resources.
After everyone dispersed, Hathaway did not leave immediately, but beckoned to Lin Xi. So Lin Xi also stayed and asked, "Is there something wrong?"
Hathaway said, "It's been so long, haven't you been in contact with the Special Operations Division?"
Lin Xi's heart was slightly cold, and he said quietly: "Do you have any advice?"
"I don't dare to advise, but according to my judgment, I'm afraid you won't expect the Special Operations Division to support you for half a year. ”
Lin Xi smiled slightly and said, "Do you think we need the support of the Special Operations Department now?"
Hathaway gathered her hair in front of her forehead and said calmly, "We all know what it means to support, and I think you know that the Ion Storm Layer can't stop the Federation forever. In fact, before I landed, the Federation's landing ship dedicated to the environment of Planet Four had already completed research. It is now quite possible that the newly built transport ship has flown out of the dock. Maybe I'm being a little more conservative. ”
Lin Xi waited for the following steadily.
Hathaway didn't sell it, and said directly: "In the past few days of fighting side by side, your genius has been fully displayed. People like you don't deserve to die here, and I certainly don't want to. So, do you want to join the Federation?"
"Nope. Lin Xi refused without a trace of hesitation.
Hathaway sighed and said, "Do you still have hope for the Special Operations Division? Red Pupil is nothing more than an opportunist, and he has no loyalty in his heart at all." Do you expect him to risk anything to his mobile base for your sake? That's impossible. ”
Lin Xi looked at Hathaway calmly, and in the end, the little princess could only sigh and turn away. Before going out, she looked back and said, "I don't want to die yet." ”
"Me too. ”
When Hathaway left, a shadow appeared on Lin Xi's face. She looked at the time, and there were still 31 hours before all the construction vehicles and new production equipment were completed.
It's a long 31 hours, and anything can happen during that time. And if you calculate it carefully, it's more than 31 hours. The new production capacity must be used to make up for the three-day production gap, and at that time, Lin Xi's gamble will be considered successful.
"It's going to work out this time, right?" Lin Xi actually took out a dice from his pocket, blew it, and then closed his eyes and threw it.
After a short while, Lin Xi dared to open his eyes.
The side of the dice facing upwards is a little red.
Lin Xi was stunned for a moment, and then remembered that he seemed to have forgotten to set a point to be considered a success, or six points to be considered a success.
In the outer space of Planet Four, hundreds of starships are silently levitating, far away from the fleet on the other side of the planet.
On the upper floor of the bridge command hall of the central flagship, a tall, thin and slender man was standing on the platform, overlooking the giant star map in the center of the hall.
Around him, there are more than a dozen large and small virtual screens, some of which are video screens, and some of which are constantly scrolling data.
At this time, a message caught his attention, and his slightly dull eyebrows were slightly raised, and he asked, "Another patrol is missing?"
A cute little girl appeared next to him and said, "An R-class patrol boat, just failed to send back the contact signal on time, and it is judged that it has been destroyed." ”
"How many are these?"
"The third, sir. ”
"It's only the third ......" The man sneered slightly, and ordered: "Increase the frequency and density of patrols, I want to see how long a single Lu shocking sky can hide." ”
