Vol 3 Chapter 481: Domestic and foreign difficulties

The unprecedented beast wave caused considerable losses to the No. 2 base. The command building was almost paralyzed by half, and most of the auxiliary equipment was destroyed. Fortunately, the main brain has not been affected, but the amount of reconstruction is still huge. Many of the equipment was left by the Federation before, and there is no way to repair it after it is broken. Although these devices are not as indispensable as the main brain, without them, work will become less smooth.
The dormitory area was also severely damaged. First, the small half was directly blown up by the huge spines, 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 spines that exploded in the rear had a slight impact on the production area and destroyed several refining furnaces.
The loss of personnel was not large, mainly because the loss of nearly a hundred officers in the command building at one time was a bit painful, followed by the loss of more than 200 personnel under construction in the underground space. In addition, the remaining combat personnel casualties are in single digits.
The traditional way of attacking the beasts is no longer a threat to the base, but the speed of the evolution of the beasts is shocking, and new units will appear in almost every big beast. Some new units are flashy, such as the balloon war beast that appeared this time, which seems to be useless except for projection propaganda.
But there are also units with infinite potential and great power. For example, the giant spines that appeared for the first time, the spines launched by it are infinitely powerful and capable of explosiveness, which is completely a catapult version of the ground missile. If it weren’t for Chu Jun’s return to the base to deploy the Alpha Cannon, and even the cheating particle main cannon, the two giant beasts alone would be able to level the base.
In addition to material and personnel losses, the plan to expand the base to underground space was stranded.
What worries Chu Jungui more is the tactical coordination ability demonstrated by the Battle Beast. This makes the animal tide more like an army, and well-trained, not afraid of death.
To be honest, Chu Jungui didn't want to fight such an enemy, and no one wanted to. However, there is no escape on Planet 4, no escape, only battle.
Jungui Chu suppressed the hidden worries, first arranged the refurbishment of the base, and then led a team of commandos into the passage where the beast came from underground, and went back to investigate.
As a result, about a few hundred meters deep, the passage was sealed. Looking at the signs of blocking, it is obvious that the beasts did it again. Chu Jungui tried to dig it, but it turned out that he had dug a few meters and it was still tightly sealed. He didn't know how thick the blocked road was.
It seemed that the Battle Beast had completely sealed all the passages. At this moment, Lord Chu had no large tools in his hands, so he had to return to the base first.
Both inside and outside the base are rushing to clean up the battlefield. A large number of soldiers rummaged through the ruins, recovered the equipment that could be used, and then cleared the ruins.
Fortunately, the production capacity of the base was not greatly affected, so more than one hundred construction vehicles were produced urgently, and the cleaning efficiency was greatly improved.
The animal tide is both a crisis and a resource. Battle beasts are the source of almost all important organic materials, and some rare materials are the only source. New war beasts always surprise people, and this time is no exception.
The two-headed behemoth of spines not only provides a lot of flesh and blood, but also contains a brand new liquid in the spines behind it. Once the spines are fired, the inside of the bottom will rupture, leaking a new body fluid. When the two biological liquids are mixed together, it becomes a powerful liquid explosive, which is twice as powerful as Chu Jungui's existing biomass explosive.
With samples, biologists at the base can produce them in large quantities. Before there is a dedicated large-scale reactor, the organic matter editor can also ensure a certain degree of efficiency.
With new explosives, almost all existing weapon systems have to be re-studied, even if it is a blessing trouble.
The balloon beast is another surprise. These guys look a bit like floating fish, and their bodies can expand several times when needed. They have a transparent hard film on the back, which has very high transmittance and purity. Hydrogen and helium can be produced in their bodies to float. The subdural organs can emit amazingly high heat, thus 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 mastered the right direction, and they have successfully evolved an organ that can emit lasers, and have put it into practical use.
It's just that the battle beast uses the biological laser as a big killer for publicity, which is a bit speechless. It's just that the Wuzu people headed by Brother Dao are actually very intelligent, and it won't take long for them to find the correct use of the balloon beast, at least the Alpha Cannon has pointed them out.
At this time, Chu Jungui couldn't help but secretly rejoice. Fortunately, he killed the Wuzu at the beginning, otherwise it would bring back the Alpha Cannon information. Maybe next time Chu Jungui will also taste the Alpha Cannon.
The encounter with the S-class beast wave brought Chu Jungui’s attention back to planet 4~EbookFREE.me~ The existence of fog and war beasts is a direct threat to the base, and their extraordinary speed of evolution Put pressure on the test subject. However, the threat of the outer space federation is also real, and it is increasing day by day.
Chu Jungui didn't know the grand strategy of the Tang Dynasty, but knew that he had to keep it up week after week. If you can’t make it through, there’s nothing going on.
At this moment, Chu Jungui felt quite distressed internally and externally. Fortunately, the test subjects never said that they had mood swings. Some only solved problems when they encountered them, one by one.
Chu Jungui immediately ordered 100 commandos to take the engineering vehicles and continue to dig along the channel blocked by the beasts. It was necessary to figure out which direction the beasts were digging into the base.
At the same time, he arranged for a group of scientists to study the geological structure under the base and the way the beasts were digging. Under normal circumstances, there is the existence of the Cambrian, and the base has a good grasp of the underground conditions within a hundred kilometers of the other side, but I did not expect that the beasts would have avoided the Cambrian detection. If the threat from the underground is not resolved, I am afraid that I will not even be able to sleep.
When all the work was arranged and Chu Jungui had time to look back and organize the data, he discovered a small anomaly. The material recovered from the beast this time was 10% less than the normal level.
After searching carefully, Chu Jungui found the reason: the large number of beasts killed by the particle cannon basically evaporated on the spot, leaving no materials behind.
The test subjects were dumbfounded and could only accept such results. Just as he was about to start the development of a new generation of weapons, Li Xinyi rushed into his laboratory and waved: "Guess what I found?"
When Chu Jun returned to her palm, he saw a pale black crystal. For some reason, at the moment when he saw this crystal, Chu Jungui suddenly felt the cells all over his body vibrate slightly.
