The unprecedented beast tide caused considerable damage to Base 2. Almost half of the command building was paralyzed, and most of the auxiliary equipment was destroyed. Fortunately, the main brain was not affected, but the amount of reconstruction work was still huge, and many equipment were damaged.
It was left over from the previous federation, and after it broke, there was no way to repair it. Although these devices are not as indispensable as the master brain, without them, work will become less smooth.
The dormitory area was also severely damaged. First, half of the dormitory area was directly blown up by the huge thorns, and then the beasts rushed into the interior, turning it into a battlefield. As a result, two-thirds of the area was destroyed. The huge thorns that exploded in the rear were
It had some impact on the production area and destroyed several refining furnaces.
The personnel losses were not large, mainly due to the tragic loss of nearly a hundred officers in the command building at one time, and secondly, the loss of more than 200 personnel under construction in the underground space. In addition, the casualties of the remaining combatants were only in single digits.
The traditional beast tide attack method no longer poses much of a threat to the base, but the beast tide evolves at an alarming speed. New troops appear in almost every major beast tide. Some of the new troops are flashy, such as the balloon war beast that appeared this time.
It seems to have no effect other than projecting propaganda.
But there are also units with unlimited potential and great power, such as the thorn monster that appeared for the first time. The thorns it launches are infinitely powerful and have explosive capabilities. It is completely a catapult version of an anti-ground missile. If Chu Jungui hadn’t deployed Alpha at the base
Cannons, and even cheating particle main cannons, these two behemoths alone can level the base.
In addition to material and personnel losses, the base's plan to expand into underground space was shelved.
What worried Chu Jungui even more was the tactical coordination ability displayed by the war beasts. This made the beast tide more like an army, well-trained and fearless of death.
To be honest, Chu Jungui didn't want to fight such an enemy, and no one wanted to. However, there was no way to avoid it on Planet 4, and there was no way to escape, so he had to fight.
Chu Jungui suppressed his worries and arranged the renovation work of the base first. Then he led a team of commandos into the passage where the war beasts came from underground and went back to explore.
As a result, after about a few hundred meters, the passage was sealed. Looking at the traces of the blockage, it was obvious that it was caused by war beasts. Chu Jungui tried digging, but after digging for several meters, the earth and stone were still tightly sealed, and there was no trace of the blockage.
Know how thick the blocked road section is.
It seemed that the war beasts had completely blocked all the passages. At this moment, Chu Jungui lacked large tools, so he had to retreat to the base first.
Everyone inside and outside the base was seizing the time to clean up the battlefield. A large number of soldiers were rummaging through the ruins, recovering equipment that could still be used, and then cleaning up the ruins.
Fortunately, the production capacity of the base was not greatly affected, so more than 100 engineering vehicles were urgently produced, greatly improving the cleaning efficiency.
The beast tide is both a crisis and a resource. War beasts are the source of almost all important organic materials, and some rare materials are the only source. New war beasts can always surprise people, and this time is no exception.
The two hill-like thorn giants not only provide a large amount of flesh and blood, but the thorns on their backs also contain a brand-new liquid. Once the thorns are fired, the inside of the bottom will rupture and a new body fluid will leak out. Two creatures
When the liquids are mixed together, they become a powerful liquid explosive, twice as powerful as Chu Jungui's existing biomass explosive.
With the samples, the biologists at the base can produce them in large quantities. Before there was a dedicated large-scale reactor, a certain efficiency could be guaranteed by using an organic matter editor.
With the new explosives, almost all existing weapon systems need to be re-researched, which can be considered a happy trouble.
The Balloon Beasts are another surprise. These guys look somewhat similar to floating fish, and their bodies can expand several times when needed. They have a transparent hard membrane on their backs, and their light transmittance and purity are quite high. They
The body can produce hydrogen and helium to float. The subdural organs can emit astonishingly high heat, thereby projecting a high-brightness beam, somewhat similar to a laser.
The power of the beam projected by each balloon beast is not high, only a few hundred watts, but the problem is that they have grasped the correct direction, and they have successfully evolved an organ that can emit lasers, and have put it into practical use.
It's just that the war beast uses the bio-laser as a big killer for propaganda, which is a bit speechless. It's just that the people of the Mist tribe headed by Brother Dao are actually very intelligent. It doesn't take long for them to find the correct use of the balloon war beast, at least Alpha
The cannon has pointed the direction for them.
At this time, Chu Jungui couldn't help but secretly feel lucky that he had killed the Mist Tribe at the beginning, otherwise it would have brought back the information about the Alpha Cannon. Maybe Chu Jungui would also have a taste of the Alpha Cannon next time.
The encounter with the S-class beast tide drew Chu Jungui's attention back to Planet 4. The existence of the Mist Clan and War Beasts was a direct threat to the base, and their extraordinary evolution speed allowed the test subjects to
Pressure. However, the threat from the Outer Space Federation is also real and is growing day by day.
Chu Jungui didn't know the grand strategy of the prosperous Tang Dynasty, he just knew that he had to hold on week by week. If he couldn't hold on, there would be nothing to do in the future.
At this moment, Chu Jungui felt quite trapped inside and outside. Fortunately, the test subjects never had mood swings. Some of them just solved problems when they encountered them, one by one.
Chu Jungui immediately ordered the dispatch of 100 commandos to bring engineering vehicles and continue digging along the passage blocked by the war beasts. They must figure out from which direction and how the war beasts dug into the base.
At the same time, he arranged a group of scientists to study the geological structure beneath the base and the tunneling methods of the war beasts. Under normal circumstances, there is the existence of the Cambrian, and the base has a grasp of the underground conditions within a radius of 100 kilometers, but he did not expect the war beasts to excavate.
The beast can actually avoid detection by the Cambrian. If the threat from the underground is not dealt with, I'm afraid I won't even be able to sleep.
After all the work was arranged and Chu Jungui had time to go back and sort out the data, he discovered a small anomaly. The materials recovered from the war beasts this time were 10% less than the normal level.
Chu Jungui searched carefully and found the reason: a large number of war beasts killed by particle cannons were basically evaporated on the spot, leaving no materials behind.
The test subject couldn't laugh or cry and could only accept this result. Just when he was about to start developing a new generation of weapons, Li Xinyi rushed into his laboratory and waved: "Guess what I found?"
Chu Jungui looked into the palm of her hand and saw a light black crystal. For some reason, the moment he saw this crystal, Chu Jungui suddenly felt that all the cells in his body were shaking slightly.
