To be honest, Chu Jungui doesn't mind providing a good enough research environment for real scientific researchers, such as Le Mans.
He also doesn't mind providing a more superior living environment to people who can produce sufficient scientific research results, such as Hathaway.
However, in comparison, Chu Jungui was more willing to provide the little princess with better things. After all, his achievements were stored in his personal chip and were already ready-made.
And Le Mans still needs to study, and God knows what he can come up with. It's not that Chu Jungui has any prejudice against Le Mans, but past data shows that throughout the ages, there are only a few researchers who can produce results, and most of them have to make ends meet by scraping together papers. In this regard, there is no difference between the 35th century and the 21st century.
But for now, if you want to study this special giant rhinoceros, you have to go to Le Mans, no matter whether he can study something or not.
However, there is no need for Chu Jungui to have a headache. Hathaway has automatically taken over the design and construction of the new Le Mans research area. In the final plan, Le Mans received a research area including a laboratory, a study room and a bathroom. The study room also had a luxurious single sofa.
According to the little princess, why sleep at such a tense moment? Just take a nap on the sofa. At worst, I'll get a stimulant injection. Anyway, I have plenty of these things in stock.
After solving the research on the giant rhinoceros, everyone continued to be busy, counting the loot and renovating the base.
The emergence of special giant rhino beasts has also put the research of new weapons on the agenda. Such a strong defensive power immediately made the fifth-generation mechanical keyboard meaningless. Ordinary explosion damage could not do anything to it, and the existing sniper rifles were also insufficiently powerful. Only the special bullets made from the horn of the giant rhinoceros leader can effectively damage it. Unfortunately, there are only three bullets, and they are all used up.
The spoils of this battle were extremely rich. After a detailed inventory, a total of more than 7,000 exotic beast materials were obtained, 1,500 spinyback beast materials, 1,000 lizard beasts that could be collected, plus more than 200 giant rhinoceros beasts, and more than 500 basal beasts. , and some fragments of missiles.
After the conversion of this batch of materials, the ammunition and materials that can be produced are four times the previous reserves. In other words, after destroying a quasi-B-level beast tide, the materials obtained are enough to produce ammunition that can eliminate two and a half or even three B-level beast tides.
As a result, fighting to support war has begun to take shape.
After eliminating this wave of beasts, Lin Xi decided to take another risk. After replenishing the minimum ammunition, he began to produce construction machinery with all his strength, preparing to produce 30 more large-scale construction machinery within 4 hours, so that the entire base's construction vehicles The number reaches 50. Based on a team of two people, everyone who goes out to collect resources or build fortifications can be assigned a construction vehicle.
This will directly double the efficiency of Base 2 in collecting basic materials such as trees, grass, soil and rocks. The number of equipment such as separators and refining furnaces in the base will need to be doubled to digest such a large amount of raw materials.
Lin Xi also plans to add production equipment, which is expected to be ready within 72 hours. After all the engineering vehicles are manufactured and the raw materials are harvested, all production equipment is just completed and can handle the newly added raw materials.
In this way, there will be a 72-hour window period, and the firepower of Base 2 will not increase.
After everyone discussed it, they felt that the danger was there, but it was not uncontrollable. In this battle, there was basically no loss in the armaments of Base No. 2, and it was able to withstand a beast tide of the same size. According to the behavior of the beast tide, it takes time to accumulate a certain number of beasts. It is unlikely that another B-level beast tide will accumulate in the next three days.
The real risks come from missiles and special war beasts.
If that special giant rhinoceros breaks into the base and destroys the power supply of the entire base, then all the weapons stations will shut down. Without the blessing of the weapon station, even if there are ten test subjects, they will never be able to stop the B-level beast tide, and even the C-level beasts will be choked.
One special giant rhinoceros almost wiped out the entire No. 2 base. What if there were 2, 3, or other special beasts appeared?
This is something to worry about.
So Chu Jungui started research on the sixth generation mechanical keyboard, Rose continued to research the next generation of sniper bullets, and Hathaway began to think about alternative weapons ideas.
Although the sniper rifle researched by Rose is not as powerful or ranged as the sniper version of the mechanical keyboard, it has at least one advantage, that is, other people can use it.
No one can swing the fifth-generation mechanical keyboard alone, let alone the sixth-generation mechanical keyboard. Rose even suspected that after the new mechanical keyboard came out, it would probably only be used by combat mechas.
Once the plan was set, the entire No. 2 base was fully mobilized, and a new round of arms race began in an intense and orderly manner. The war against the beast tide is not only at the tactical level, but also at the technological level. So far, Base 2 can still be one step ahead, but everyone knows that as soon as this lead disappears, Base 2 will be destroyed immediately.
There is a layer of haze in everyone's mind that lingers, except for the test subjects.
In the valley, the four black shadows are still gathered together. The three black shadows have obviously increased in size. However, the gap between them and the central black shadow has become larger, because the size of the central black shadow has almost doubled. , there are more than 300 eyes floating on the surface of the body, more than the other black figures combined.
A small black shadow said: "Failure, we need... soldiers... more!"
And another group of black figures obviously disagreed: "We need...good!"
"more!"
"good!"
The two black shadows couldn't argue about whether it was more or better, so the third black shadow after the central shadow finally spoke: "It should be better."
The shadow that advocated better suddenly had more than ten eyes gushing out, cheering, but then a third group of shadow poured cold water on it: "It's not good, it's better!"
It turned out that the third black shadow did not agree with its point of view, but only corrected its grammar.
The three black shadows couldn't argue, and finally turned to the central black shadow for the final decision.
The black shadow in the center thought for a long time, then used 300 eyes to come to a conclusion in four rare words: "More and better!"
Then all the shadows were happy.
Hundreds of messengers took off into the sky and flew into the distance to summon new herds of war beasts.
The central black shadow watched the messengers leave, then turned his eyes back, staring at the remaining three black shadows, and asked: "Harvest?"
The smallest black shadow projected the image of a missile, which was the Javelin series missile used by the Federation. The missile body was pierced by a thorn, and it seemed that it fell into their hands after it failed.
"I ate...and then, this...leftover."
The black shadow spat out a piece of broken metal.
In an instant, the eyes of all the black figures fell on this piece of metal.
