Chapter 268 Technology Explosion 【4000】

At this time, Zhao Feng's army could accommodate up to 1 billion people.

Choose someone? Who to choose?

Just continue to recruit high-quality talents~

That is the future army of 1 billion people!

By then, all 1 billion soldiers will have reached Level 60, and all of them will be strong men with a constitution of 30 points. Just thinking about it makes Zhao Feng a little impatient.

He rubbed his hands and sent the coordinates of the return journey to the chief engineer.

5 seconds later, the familiar light blue arc of light flashed [Conqueror] and disappeared.

. . .

Returning to the base, the defensive battle had already ended a long time ago, and the corpses of the deformed creatures outside had already been burned to death by the city guards.

At this time, Zhao Feng first authorized the third round of recruitment of soldiers. He did not need to appoint anyone to do this. As long as he authorized it, the city's optical brain system would operate according to the complete recruitment process.

For those who have no stains, this process is absolutely fair, and there is no shady or behind-the-scenes operation.

Of course, it is not to discriminate against those with stains, even if they have had a bad past, but as long as they show a changed attitude, the optical brain will make a rating and restore some of their hidden permissions.

After passing the registration process.

The most comprehensive physical examination is required. Only after passing the physical examination can the future development route, that is, the branch of employment be roughly distinguished.

At the end of this section, a side-by-side comparison with the profile will be made.

This is what we often call a "background check."

At this point, people with bad records and no repentance will be turned away directly, even if they pass the physical examination or are even excellent.

This double-checking method is used to ensure the overall quality of the soldiers, so that there is no need to worry about anyone fishing in troubled waters.

Of course, those who do not want to repent do not completely ignore them. Zhao Feng will arrange the city optical brain to guide them.

In theory, these people will always get a chance to improve as long as their hearts are awakened.

But then again, there are all kinds of people, and you can't force them to become talented.

The system only plays an auxiliary function, and the essence still depends on personal wishes.

This is true for military conscription, and so is the basic development of all walks of life.

After arranging the internal personnel transfer, it is time to address the issue of territorial expansion.

Now, because the highest level of the legion is only some officials at the company commander level, and the base is too large, there is no need for them to hold separate meetings or discuss strategies.

For the territorial tasks mentioned in the system, Zhao Feng only needs to order the troops to move forward.

The forward distance will be decided according to the base's capacity for anti-aircraft firepower, cannon fortresses and alloy walls as before.

At present, when production capacity is fully activated, it can advance about 2,000 kilometers to 3,000 kilometers per day.

After all, the [Integrated Production Line] or [Manufacturing City] has not been built yet. If we only rely on resource-based cities like [Qiancheng], our production capacity will be limited after all.

But no matter how limited the production capacity is, the advancement of the territory must still be carried out. Otherwise, too many soldiers will be recruited and there will be no place to spawn monsters on the front line, which will be too damned.

After determining the policy of outward expansion, the next step is to comprehensively upgrade the building system.

To start the next phase of the building system, first all types of buildings that have been built must reach Level 5.

As for the quantity, for Level 5, in addition to scientific research buildings, space buildings, and functional buildings, other buildings such as production, smelting, collection, and manufacturing must reach 100.

These two indicators have been completed under Beta's supervision, and now only one is left.

That is about the development of the material technology tree. The T3 key material "Nano Metal" must be turned on to unlock the next stage of building categories.

Of course, the development of the technology tree on Zhao Feng's side includes not only the basic [material system], but also the [offensive system] technology tree and the [defensive system] technology tree.

In terms of [Phototropism], there is even more [Ether] technology, the kind of ship-insertion technology that is specially used for battleships.

Except these are known.

The [? in his body? ? ? 】The building is still crying for food, and its energy gap is even greater.

Now, Zhao Feng will solve these problems one by one.

First is the technology tree.

Without saying a word, he upgraded all material technology to T3 level by investing hope value.

Zhao Feng did not upgrade a certain technology tree alone.

Whether it is a military system or a material system related to development.

Even its extensions include weapons, manufacturing, mining, medical and other branch technology trees.

Thanks to Zhao Feng's investment at all costs, they all reached T3 level.

As for the source of so much hope. . .

That was thanks to the despair created by Zhao Feng on the first day.

His approach of allowing the people to face the evil gods head-on had a very good effect.

At that moment, about 50% of the population fell into absolute fear, 30% fell into despair, and 19% fell into sadness.

Immediately afterwards, when the [Conqueror] reversed the situation with thunderous momentum, he harvested a large amount of hope points as expected.

The next 10 days will continue to strengthen this point, allowing the people to see hope and understand who is the hope.

In this way, Zhao Feng's hope value, except for the first day, which reached a terrifying 2 billion, has remained fluctuating between 200 million and 800 million every day since then.

In 11 days, his hope value has accumulated more than 7 billion.

Now, it's just about using them to accelerate the development of some technologies. It's not too simple.

Even if each technology requires 10,000 hours to develop, it is only 25 million hope points.

You know, Zhao Feng's learning efficiency has increased to 85% at this time. If it weren't for the lack of choices and talent advancement options, it would be impossible to say that his learning efficiency could have increased to 90%.

The efficiency brought about by this talent is quite powerful. It reduces study or scientific research time by 85%, and 10,000 hours of scientific and technological research is only 1,500 hours in his case.

And after a period of crazy clicking and upgrading.

The technology tree has been fully upgraded.

[Offensive] The four weapon technologies in the technology tree consume the most hope points.

Take the M-type rail weapon as an example. Starting from the [Magnetic Confinement Array] of the M-type electromagnetic gun, there are simply endless technological options.

The first one is [array optimization].

Its function is to increase the energy supply efficiency by 10% at each level, which is the speed of energy gathering.

Reflected in the weapon, it is the weapon's firing rate and charging speed.

Here’s the key point, this thing needs to reach Lv.10 to unlock the next level.

After spending about 60 million hope points to fill it up, the second thing that appeared was [Cannon Barrel Strengthening].

This function is to increase the muzzle velocity of launched projectiles and the durability of the barrel.

Upgrading to Lv.10 requires 80 million hope points!

Later, there is [Explosive Adaptation] to increase the power of high-explosive bombs by 100 million.

[Sharp plating] Increases armor penetration effect, 120 million

[Trajectory Computer] Improve the aiming efficiency of the fire control system, 150 million.

[Quantum Cannon Satellite] Increases the maximum range and accuracy by 200 million.

Anyway, there are always 5-6 items.

Four types of weapon technologies, with a total of 4.9 billion+ hope points, are all invested in it.

You know, the research and development of "nano metal" in materials technology only took 30 million yuan of hope.

The consumption of good guys here is 217 times that of the material department!

But the effect is quite remarkable. After all four weapon technologies unlocked the core manufacturing plan of the L-shaped main gun, they all eventually pointed to the same brand-new technological option.

【Keel main gun】

This is a high-end product that cannot even be sold in the trade area. Even if this [keel main gun] is developed, it can only be the lowest model defaulted by the Xinghai system, but that is not comparable to any L-type main gun.

Just look at the [Pacemaker·Modification] in front of the Doomsday Barrier. If it weren't for the Chaos creature's command system being too weak, there would actually be no need for Chaos soldiers to come on board. The [Unstable Photon Cannon] alone would be able to grind the Doomsday Barrier alive. die.

Of course, the development time for this thing is also quite scary. Even if the development time is reduced by 85%, it still requires 19.9 million hours.

That is the time of 2271.

Converted to the expected value, it is 49.75 billion!

Zhao Feng was scratching his head when he saw this data, it was the [Keel Main Cannon]!

If you don't order that thing, wouldn't it be a waste?

But just order it, I hope the value is too much.

Although this thing can be studied by up to 50 people at the same time, if more than one person studies it, the hope value will not play a role.

Maybe he can wait 45 years?

Let’s face it, 45 years is not a long time.

Of course, in 45 years, let’s not talk about whether people on earth will still be around.

Anyway, according to Zhao Feng's estimation, this star sea world must be gone.

Therefore, although this thing is beautiful and powerful, after the excitement is over, Zhao Feng also understands that it is useless.

This is actually good, at least he doesn't have to fill it with the remaining billions of hope.

After all, in addition to weapons, he also needs to develop a fleet, mass-produce shipyards, and then mass-produce [Conquerors]. These are all big players who burn hopes and resources.

In addition to the military, the core city where the legion is stationed [Integrated Production Line], the future energy development focus [Dyson Ring], etc., all also need the blessing of hope.

All of them are invested in weapons manufacturing, which is a bit militaristic.

Well, although his head was really hot, it was filled with a lot of energy~

As for harvesting a wave of his own people again and creating some crises.

Sorry, I can only say that you are overthinking.

First of all, human beings' spiritual energy needs to be restored, and at close range, only the first time has the best effect, and the later you get, the less you can get.

Secondly, is there any crisis here that could threaten the current human race?

Do you insist on pretending to be weak? Want to trick someone?

The players are not fools. Such actions will inevitably lead to disunity and will not be conducive to future development.

It's even more inconsistent with Zhao Feng's wishes.

Therefore, it is definitely useless to obtain a large amount of hope value in a short period of time.

You can only grind it slowly or think of other ways.

As for the technology of [Light Trending], Zhao Feng has also improved a lot, but because the building level is only Lv.1, there is only one layer of technology tree.

There is no chance to list the branches below.

There is no way, before the ordinary building system is advanced, the technology of [Light Trending] can only be like this.

But this alone is completely enough for Zhao Feng.

Now, in addition to unlocking the production of basic L-type main guns, he has also started the production of hull plug-ins.

He had never thought about low-level ship inserts that he had obtained before.

Because there is too little improvement, there is no point in making it.

But it’s different now, because the foundation of [Light-Tracting] technology has been completely unlocked, and the corresponding [Light-Tracting Ship Plug] has also been opened to Zhao Feng.

For example, the iconic [Two-Bit Hydrogen Furnace], [Phase Engine] and even [Leaping Light Phantom Bullet Belt] were all displayed, and prompts were given that they could be manufactured.

The resources required are still the characteristics of [Light Trend], energy and time.

Well~ Huge energy, and a long time.

For example: [Two-digit hydrogen furnace] The energy required to manufacture it has reached 1.2 trillion, and the manufacturing time is 12 days.

The [Phase Engine] requires 2.4 trillion energy and is completed in 24 days.

The most expensive [Leaping Light Phantom Bullet Belt] costs 4.8 trillion energy and takes 48 days to build.

Of course, these things are expensive for a reason. Advanced hull plug-ins are quite convenient to install.

It also comes with space compression effect and is plug-and-play.

Battlecruisers like [Conqueror] can be equipped with up to 3 types of ship inserts.

The three types of ship plugs that happen to be unlocked are also different, and they can be installed on the Conqueror without conflict.

[Two-position hydrogen furnace] is attached to the main power source, which can provide double energy supply without loss, as well as overload protection for the power grid. Even when the main power furnace is in combat mode, it can still double the energy supply.

[Phase Engine] That's equivalent to "invincible".

Hiding into P space, which is the gap between the current layer of the universe, currently, unless it is a weapon targeting the space itself, even the keel main gun cannot do anything to him.

Once the [Light Jumping Phantom Bullet Chain] is activated, it will double Zhao Feng's current rate of fire by one hundred times.

Moreover, this doubling will not consume the barrel.

Mysterious things like high-dimensional projection are simply unreasonable.

In addition, the main guns installed on the [Conqueror] battleship are all of the same type. Even if the active ability of the ammunition belt is not turned on, the trigger probability can be obtained by more than 40%.

All the bonuses are stacked together, and the bonus effect on the battleship's rate of fire can even touch the "star rating".

It's also because of this.

Even though the energy consumption of manufacturing ships has reached 8.4 trillion, it is almost half of the daily production capacity of [Starting Point City].

Zhao Feng still clicked production without hesitation.

Nothing else, the attack power is almost doubled, the defense power is almost invincible, and the energy supply is basically self-sustaining without the need for an energy cabinet. These three things alone are tempting enough, let alone all together?

Even in Zhao Feng's opinion, these three ship plugs, listed individually, are all qualified to be used as trump cards.

. . .

Staring at the slowly decreasing manufacturing time, Zhao Feng was not in a hurry to speed up. The intensity of the current battle was basically flat.

To deal with those little losers, my brothers alone are enough! (End of chapter)
