The night of a planet is not that long compared to the day, but for humans who are accustomed to the day timing of their home planet, a night of more than 20 hours is still a little long.
Around Base No. 2, small light groups were swaying. They were soldiers working hard with their armor's built-in lights on.
Lin Xi stood in the center of the base, looking at the data that was constantly beating on her personal terminal, and was carefully adjusting the plan. At this time, a red data appeared on the screen, and she immediately opened the communication channel and asked: "Jungui, what happened?"
question?"
Chu Jun returned and said: "It's nothing. There is some abnormality in the data of one chip. I'm looking for the reason."
"Well, this is the last node. After completing it, we can connect all important production equipment to the network, so that we can grasp all material production information in real time."
Chu Jungui was dismantling a bunch of wires underground at the No. 1 Satellite Base, then taking out the chips and replacing them with new ones. While he was working, he asked: "Why bother? I think in terms of statistics, it depends on the head."
That’s it.”
"Not everyone is as perverted as you." Lin Xi said angrily, and then added: "Besides, now you can rely on memory to count, but what about the future? When the equipment in our base increases to 1,000, 2,000,
Even when the number is tens of thousands, can you still rely on memory to count it? If it is just walking around, it will take most of your time, right?"
"Why build tens of thousands of devices? We can build fewer, but larger devices."
Lin Xi was speechless for a moment, and then pointed out Chu Jungui's mistake, "Any large-scale equipment has its limits. In the prosperous Tang Dynasty, sometimes the entire planet was a factory. How many equipment do you think there would be in such a planetary factory? One hundred million?"
Or a billion? Or even more?”
Chu Jungui stopped talking. Of course, at this time, he had completed the work in hand, restarted the node chip, and connected all the equipment in the entire underground area to the network.
As new data began to flow, Lin Xi smiled. In her eyes, these were not only numbers, but also materials and strength, which were the guarantee of leaving here.
At this moment, a shadow quietly passed over the light screen in her hand.
It was night now, and the shadows were insignificant and fleeting. However, Lin Xi was an elite warrior, and nothing strange could escape her eyes. She immediately raised her head and searched in the air.
There was nothing unusual in the sky, but the thunder and lightning in the clouds seemed to be partially blocked by something. A vague shadow passed through the clouds and flew into the distance.
"Jun Gui! Come up quickly!" Lin Xi immediately contacted the two nearby anti-aircraft gun towers, raised the muzzle of the huge sniper rifle, and pointed it at the clouds.
Chu Jungui jumped up to the top floor, came to Lin Xi, and asked, "What's wrong?"
"It seemed like something flew over from above just now."
Chu Jungui raised his head, his eyes constantly changing color, and he switched to more than ten modes in an instant, but he did not see any messengers, winged beasts, or other flying beasts. The ground was also quiet, with little lights indicating the warriors.
I am working hard to prepare for the next battle.
"Nothing!"
"It was flying in the clouds." Lin Xi said.
"In the ion storm cloud?" Chu Jungui was a little unbelievable. The ion storm is not suitable for any living things to survive. Not to mention living things, even a piece of super alloy will eventually be split into ions by lightning if it stays in it for a long time.
However, considering the strange ecology on this planet, Chu Jungui did not dare to say that there must be nothing that can survive in the ion storm.
"What does it look like? Which direction does it fly in?"
"I only saw a large shadow, about a few hundred meters in size, heading in the direction of the Shadow Fortress."
Chu Jungui pondered for a moment and said: "Our current firepower has no problem dealing with three or four levels of beasts. If there are more, it will be difficult. But according to the normal rules of beasts, we shouldn't see so many beasts next time."
Chao. No matter what that thing is, if it is to attack the Shadow Fortress, then we should not see it again. If it is not to attack the Shadow Fortress, we will not see it again."
"Will there be a B-level beast wave next time?"
"It's possible. We are preparing for it now."
Lin Xi thought for a while and said: "But our firepower is still not enough. If a brand-new war beast appears, we may not be able to deal with it."
"you mean?"
"The landing module of the Jolly Roger also has several usable fusion engines. With a little modification, it can be turned into a powerful fusion bomb."
"The giant rhinoceros is not afraid of nuclear explosions, nor are the war beasts in the air."
"But the alien beasts and the Thornback beasts are afraid! We need to clear out all the weak beasts as soon as possible, and then concentrate our firepower on the big ones."
Chu Jungui nodded, "It makes sense. But we have to stay far away to avoid blowing up our own base."
"It really means rebuilding. It doesn't take much time to rebuild a base now." Lin Xi said calmly, as if he was discussing an ordinary nuclear bomb.
Chu Jungui roughly calculated the modification plan, and then said: "We can modify three 2-ton-yield micro nuclear bombs. But to be honest, I don't think this thing is of much use."
"I think so, but it's better than nothing. I want to bury two of them on the route where that thing came from just now, and leave one as a spare."
"Build a catapult, or just a cannon?"
"Cannon, if you don't fire this thing in the future, you can still fire other shells."
"The catapult is better. Although the range is shorter, at least there is no risk of exploding the barrel. We don't have so many high-quality alloys on hand."
"Wouldn't it be possible to dismantle the Jolly Roger's life capsule?"
"That makes sense."
The two of them exchanged words with each other and quickly discussed the plan. They didn't feel it themselves, but they seemed to have a tacit understanding with each other.
As for those rescue cabins, they were originally moved to the base. After being connected to the power supply, they can be used as airlock rooms for rest. Lin Xi and Chu Jungui’s new plan is certain, and most of the pirate flag soldiers have to wear armor to sleep.
Already.
In the face of the danger of survival, even a small welfare is sacrificed.
At this moment, the chariot troops starting from the Shadow Fortress are moving in tirelessly. They have already walked this route last time, and the terrain matching system has already stored all the terrain data, so most of the long march relies on
With autonomous driving, the burden will not be too heavy.
In the command vehicle, Joseph and William sat opposite each other, staring at the holographic tactical map in front of them. All scanned data in the surrounding area will be displayed on this map.
At this moment, a red light spot suddenly appeared on the edge of the holographic map, flying at an astonishing high speed!
