Two locomotives approached Base 2 at high speed. On the nearest unfinished satellite base, several gun towers adjusted their directions at the same time and aimed at the approaching locomotive. But after seeing clearly the style of the motorcycle and the rider on it, these gun towers returned to their original positions and continued to point toward the distant skyline.
Chu Jungui and Mei Mei passed by the satellite base one after another and headed towards the main base. In the open space between the bases, two soldiers were controlling the tractor, stacking standard 2 cubic meter containers together. The cargo boxes are full of pre-processed combat beast biological materials, waiting to be used in the next process.
Chu Jungui and Mei Mei stopped outside the main base gate and threw the motorcycle aside. Rose went about her business, while Chu Jungui walked through the gate of the base and came to the underground production space.
As soon as we entered the production space, we were greeted by the deafening roar of machines. The volume of a single device is not that loud, but when hundreds of devices of various types are gathered in a closed underground space, the combined volume is quite terrifying.
Chu Jungui turned on the sound insulation function of the armor, walked through the production area, and came to a corner near the wall. A short man was busy in front of several pieces of equipment.
"Xion?" Chu Jungui asked.
The man looked back, without putting down his work, and said, "It's me."
"How's it going? Have you got any results from the Lizardmon's acid analysis?"
"If we just talk about the results, then there are results. But there are no real results."
"Is there any problem?" Chu Jungui asked.
Xion raised his head and said: "Problem? Isn't the problem obvious? What results can be analyzed by just relying on these organic matter detectors? Look at this latest test report, what is written on it. Unknown Substance 8 %! All the key is hidden in this 8%."
"8%?" Chu Jungui frowned, "The previous test report showed that the unknown substance was only 5%. I'm afraid our previous guess was right. These lizard beasts have evolved again."
Xion said: "Are we really just facing a naturally occurring beast tide, rather than a huge and advanced biological weapons factory?"
Chu Jungui smiled and said, "It would be great if it was really a biological weapons factory."
"That's right. Only those guys with bad brains will spend money to research biological weapons." Xion agreed.
Chu Jungui pointed to an instrument he had never seen before and asked, "What is this?"
"The performance of a detector I designed myself is only so good. After all, only biochips can be used here, and we all know how bad the performance of biochips is. I hope this detector can reduce the unknown components to Below 1%, that makes sense.”
Xion stopped what he was doing, stared at Chu Jungui, and said, "So, can my laboratory go to the front?"
Chu Jungui smiled bitterly, "Your position is already far enough forward."
"But not yet at the front." Xion refused to give in.
"You know, everyone told me the same thing. Some of them asked Hathaway to come to me." Chu Jungui continued to smile bitterly.
Xion was immediately furious, "It must be that bastard Ramos! Only he can do such a dirty and dirty thing! I tell you, you must not listen to him! What new form of energy is not important at all? Wouldn’t it be enough to pile up hundreds of pulp engines? But my research results will have an immediate impact on improving survivability! There is nothing more reassuring than a reliable armor plate."
"Okay, I understand, I will consider it. In addition, I hope you will adjust the order of research and give priority to how to safely store these acids."
"Acid bombs, I know. But they're not really that useful."
Chu Jungui ignored Xi En's nagging and left quickly. Most of these scientists are virtuous and value their laboratories and equipment more than their own lives. In order to strive for more and better equipment and experimental environment, they did not hesitate to abuse and attack each other.
If Chu Jungui has the conditions, he certainly hopes to satisfy everyone's requirements at the same time. But the problem is that survival is the first priority now, and some items that cannot directly improve combat effectiveness have to be put aside later.
Theon was the only biologist who was also a chemist. Originally there were three alien biologists in Jolly Roger, but two died when it crashed.
Chu Jungui and Lin Xi attach great importance to Xion. After all, biologists are far more useful than material scientists on Planet 4, and the least useful ones are those who specialize in electromagnetic fields.
Chu Jungui walked quickly towards the stairs, all the way up to the top of the base.
Hathaway was standing next to a gun tower, staring into the distance. In Base 2, she is the only one who doesn't have to work, as long as her chip is not idle.
Chu Jun came back to her and asked, "What are you looking at?"
"The last missile group flew from that direction. I was wondering, how far can these living missiles fly?"
Chu Jungui was startled, and then he understood what she meant. Missiles require fuel, and creatures require physical strength. No living thing can fly endlessly without resting. Even if there is, it is in space and cannot be these living missiles. In fact, the method of propulsion of living missiles is very strange, and it should consume quite a lot of physical strength, much more than that of a winged beast.
For aerial creatures, the most effortless thing is naturally anti-gravity, followed by suspension, and then wings. Jet propulsion is faster, but it is not economical.
Chu Jungui narrowed his eyes slightly and said, "I understand, their range should be limited."
Hathaway said: "Maybe the war beast's lair is not too far from us."
"That's not good news."
"Not necessarily. They can attack us, and we can also attack them. If its nest is less than 500 kilometers away from us, that would be interesting." The little princess's eyes flashed with danger.
"That's too dangerous. Without a fortress, we can't defeat the beast tide in the wild." Chu Jungui disagreed.
"We can immediately send troops to pursue them after the next beast tide ends, and go straight to their lair to see what is hidden there."
Chu Jungui silently deduced the whole process in his mind, still shaking his head: "There are too few of us, and we don't have tanks or mechas. As long as we encounter a scattered C-class beast tide on the road, we won't be able to deal with it."
"What should we do? Are we going to keep getting beaten like this?"
"We can wait."
"What are you waiting for?"
"Wait for the lancers from the Shadow Fortress, or wait for the landing base you established to send troops to attack us."
The little princess was stunned, "Then?"
"Then we will have enough manpower and equipment to see what is in the beast's nest."
