Chapter 102: War of Atrition

Xuanying thought for a moment and said, "According to past experience, each beast tide will last for about five days, and there will be five shock waves every day, but the specific time of the shock wave is uncertain, it may be morning, afternoon or evening. The interval between the waves is also not fixed. ”

"The main body of the impact in the first three or four days are all low-level mutant creatures, and they are cannon fodder among the mutated creatures, with the purpose of wasting the energy reserves of the fence system. The real danger is in the last two days. ”

"As for the worst outcome, it's actually bad every time. I remember the most dangerous time, when the energy reserves of the fence defense system were all used up, and nearly half of the towers burned out the core components due to energy overload, and it took decades to repair. ”

"As for the non-core components, there are even more that have not been able to fully repair the damage after they have been damaged. At present, about a third of them are useless for short-range defensive rapid-fire guns. ”

Zhou Ziheng asked, "Then, what about the casualties of the cultivators?"

Xuanying said: "As for the cultivators, the sacrifices are not too many, about two or three hundred. However, if it weren't for the five Force Grandmasters joining forces in the end to eliminate the last and most powerful wave of mutated creatures, the casualties of the cultivators would have more than doubled. ”

Everyone was stunned.

How powerful is that for the five Force Grandmasters to join forces?

Seeing everyone's reaction, Hyun Ying smiled and said, "It's not as powerful as you think." Probably, it is equivalent to a kilometer-high tower, and the full power output is done once. ”

Everyone did not have an accurate understanding of how powerful the full power output of the kilometer-high tower was. Hearing Xuanying say this, it surprised them incomparably. The output of this thousand-meter-high tower is even stronger than the five Force Grandmasters joining forces to strike a single blow?

Zhou Ziheng quickly estimated and said, "In this way, the power of the light emitted by these hundred-meter-high towers is actually far less powerful than the blow of an eighth-level grandmaster?"

Hyun Young nodded, "Of course it's not that exaggerated. A continuous beam of particles is roughly equivalent to the power of a sixth-level high-level cultivator. If this tower is at full power, it is probably equivalent to the power of a seventh-level mid-level cultivator with all his strength. ”

"The strange birds and monsters that appeared today seem to be huge, but in fact, their strength is not strong, and they are about equivalent to the sixth intermediate level. Those who are smaller in size only have a fifth or sixth level of beginners. ”

The hearts of the people were at ease. If strange birds and monsters only have this kind of strength, they are not particularly terrifying. But when they thought of the strange birds and monsters that covered the sky and the sun, they couldn't help but tingle their scalps.

Zhou Ziheng was surprised and said, "Then why did I shoot the strange bird with the dawn, but I couldn't smash the strange bird at once like the light emitted by the tower?"

Hyunyoung explained, "That's because of the difference between particle beams and Force bombs. When the particle beam hits the target, it rapidly expands and spreads, causing an explosion in the target's body. Force bombs, on the other hand, are penetrating and do not easily detonate. ”

Zhou Ziheng said again: "What kind of mutant creatures will appear later?"

Xuanying said: "The mutant creatures in the back will have higher and higher defense. Now a beam of particles can explode a monster bird or monster. The next two waves of monsters, I'm afraid it will take two shots. The strange birds and monsters that will appear tomorrow and the day after tomorrow will need more. ”

"In the fence defense system, the energy reserve is fixed, and the rate of replenishment of energy is basically constant. Once the energy is exhausted, the fence defense system becomes an ornament. ”

"What's more, in the impact of these waves, there are also some small monster birds and monsters that have been rated by the fence defense system as having a low threat level. They pose a great threat to the fence defense system itself. ”

"So, it's time to activate the Tower's automated defense system as soon as possible. And it is also necessary to organize more cultivators to help defend against these little monster birds and monsters. ”

Zhou Ziheng thought for a while and said, "I heard someone say that these strange birds and monster skins and bones are very valuable, is it true?"

Xuanying nodded and said, "That's true." However, the flesh and blood of the strange birds and monsters are poisonous, and cultivators below the fifth level basically can't bear it. ”

Zhou Ziheng hesitated a little and asked, "Will anyone pay for these skins and bones?"

"Yes. The Red Flame Castle will be open to the public. And there are many other merchants who will also acquire in large quantities. There is no need to worry about remuneration at all. ”

Zhou Ziheng said: "That's good." I will arrange for someone to spread the news as quickly as possible to attract more cultivators to come. Moreover, I will report to the military headquarters as soon as possible and request that the troops be transferred and bring heavy weapons over. ”

Xuanying said: "I'm afraid that far water can't quench the thirst of the near." It will not take three days or two to bring heavy weapons over, and when they come, I am afraid that the beast tide has already passed. ”

At this time, the rapid-fire cannon had quieted down, indicating that the third wave of beast tides had passed.

Xuanying said: "Do you still have any questions? If not, I will leave first, there are still many towers, and I need to activate the automatic defense mode." ”

Zhou Ziheng stepped aside and said, "There is labor." Be my guest. ”

Hyun Young nodded, stepped to the door, opened the door, and hurried away. During the whole process, she did not take any precautions, which fully reflected her trust in Zhou Ziheng.

She believed that Zhou Ziheng, as a seventh-level Force Master, didn't bother to do it at all, and he was doing something behind his back.

Wang Xiaotian glanced at Qian Yuntang, and then ran to Zhou Ziheng. Before he could speak, Zhou Ziheng raised his hand and gave him a few chisels.

"You don't know how thick the sky is!"

"Let you be bold!"

"Do you think your wings are stiff?

Wang Xiaotian immediately bent down and hugged his head, and screamed loudly, "Oops, oops." Master, stop fighting, I know it's wrong, Master, stop fighting. Stop it. It hurts, it hurts. ”

Qian Yuntang saw Wang Xiaotian deflated, and his heart was inexplicably relieved. He gritted his back molars hard and muttered in a low voice, "Well hit!

Albert touched his nose, his face was a little embarrassed, because in this case, persuasion was not enough, nor was it to stop, so he had to turn his head and not watch Wang Xiaotian being beaten.

After beating Wang Xiaotian, Zhou Ziheng looked at Qian Yuntang and said, "Old Qian, make a decision and tell me." Let's go first. ”

After speaking, Zhou Ziheng nodded at Eber, counted it as a greeting, and turned around and left with Wang Xiaotian.

Qian Yuntang and Albert looked at each other.

Qian Yuntang looked away and said with an embarrassed face: "That...... This ......"

Albert waved his hand and said, "Don't say anything." When the beast tide is over, I will send you back to the Eastern Chu Kingdom, and we will clear the two. ”

----------------Partition------------------

Zhou Ziheng took Wang Xiaotian and flew up in the air when he got out of the cave, heading straight to the tall tower to the east, preparing to join the few members of the hidden dragon who stayed there.

Before he reached the tower, Zhou Ziheng saw several strange birds and monsters, surrounding the base of the tower, headbanging, claw scratching, and spitting on the base of the tower with fishy saliva. And those close-in rapid-fire guns, all of them did not react.

Zhou Ziheng hurriedly put Wang Xiaotian on his back and said, "Hold tight." I'm going to get rid of this nasty stuff first. ”

Wang Xiaotian hurriedly hugged Zhou Ziheng's neck.

"Dawn" suddenly appeared on Zhou Ziheng's hands. He shot continuously with his gun, and in a few shots he wiped out the strange birds and monsters.

Zhou Ziheng put away the "dawn", pulled Wang Xiaotian and landed in front of the cave, and opened the door to enter. Several members of the hidden dragon are hiding behind the fence and are on guard with guns. Seeing Zhou Ziheng coming, they immediately greeted him.

Zhou Ziheng said: "Nothing happened, right?"

The first one replied, "It's fine." A few of us walked around the tower a few times and found a lot of rooms. Some rooms are empty, and some rooms have very large weapons. However, there are some rooms where the weapons have not been fired. ”

Another little black fat man said: "If these weapons are also fired, those strange birds and monsters just now will definitely be wiped out." ”

Zhou Ziheng immediately guessed that the weapons that the Hidden Dragon team members said that they could not fire should be the non-core weapons that Xuanying said and did not repair after being damaged.

He nodded, indicating that he understood. Because Xuanying said that there was no way to fix it, he couldn't help it.

At this time, Wang Xiaotian suddenly raised his hand and said, "This, I think, I can solve it." ”

All the members of the Hidden Dragon looked at Wang Xiaotian in surprise.

Zhou Ziheng originally wanted to reprimand Wang Xiaotian. But seeing that he looked confident, he held the idea of a dead horse as a live horse doctor, and said, "Tell me about it." ”

Wang Xiaotian said: "Not long ago, in that tower over there, we also encountered this problem. In that tower, there were also several rooms of weapons that were out of order. I've solved it all. Hey. ”

The little black fat man looked incredulous, "Can you?"

Wang Xiaotian nodded confidently.

The little black fat man looked Wang Xiaotian up and down, and said to Zhou Ziheng: "Dragon Head, who is this heroic young man?"

The corners of Zhou Ziheng's mouth showed a hint of pride, as if his son had scored a full score in the exam, and the old father who was praised by others said: "He is my apprentice Wang Xiaotian." From then on, he will be the messenger. ”

Everyone immediately straightened up, raised their arms at Wang Xiaotian, and said in unison: "I've seen the messenger." ”

Wang Xiaotian hurriedly followed their example, standing up straight, with his arms held up, but he didn't know what to say.

Zhou Ziheng said: "I was supposed to introduce you, but I will have time to introduce you to each other in the future." Tell me what those weapons are all about. ”

Wang Xiaotian put down his arm and said, "The weapons I saw in that tower were all damaged by the fire control radar, and there was no way to lock on to the target, so they couldn't be used." I guess the weapons here, too, should be this problem. However, the specific situation will not be determined until I have seen it. ”

Zhou Ziheng nodded and said, "You lead the way." ”

The little black fat man immediately rushed to the front to lead the way.

Wang Xiaotian followed the little black fat man and them, looked at the situation in several rooms, and found that the problems here were exactly the same as the problems of the previous tower, all of which were damage to the fire control radar, or broken light from the rapid-fire gun manipulator.

So he taught these people how to operate rapid-fire guns by hand.

These people saw that Wang Xiaotian didn't repair the damaged parts at all, but just changed the automatic operation to manual operation, and they all felt cheated, and looked at him with disdain, and their faces were full of "You treat us stupidly, right?" expressions.

Wang Xiaotian was also very unhappy, and after teaching them once, he said, "I see that you are not convinced." Well, I'll put you to the test to see if there are any smart people among you. ”

Without waiting for the gang to react, he took out an egg from his pocket (actually from the original crystal space) as he spoke, and said, "Which of you can stand it up?"
