Chapter 26: Archimedes

　　 (It's a new week, ask for recommendation votes.)
　　 "Huh?" Tang Fang was stunned. After a long while, he didn't realize it. After turning his attention, he saw that the gray and uncontrollable human symbol in the system interface turned into a shiny dark gold.
　　 With a thought, the Zerg base screen disappeared, replaced by a human command center and an SCV (farmer).
　　 The human base was unlocked, and it was unlocked at this time.
　　 Subconsciously click on SCV and select the basic construction menu. Sure enough, except for the command center, supply station, and refinery in the first row, the first barracks building in the second row has been unlocked.
　　 Tang Fang was overjoyed, just like spending a dollar on a beautiful flowery virgin. If Clapham were not present, he would really have to laugh to the sky to vent his inner excitement. The human base is available and the barracks are unlocked. This means that he has another trump card in his hand, the combat units are diversified, the combat effectiveness is stronger, and the tactics are more flexible.
　　 Press hot key B quickly, SCV welds a prototype of a building on the ground. Tang Fang forcibly suppressed his joy and turned his attention to the central computer's display screen. Through the notes next to the information, he learned that the confidential information that was integrated by the system was the construction technology of the base, including the construction and integration of various systems such as infrastructure, life support, and communications.
　　 The construction technology of the base has opened up human technology. From this perspective, other buildings outside the barracks should also need to integrate existing confidential technology to unlock.
　　 As he frowned and thought, the work of data compression and transfer has been completed.
　　 Clapham saw him staring at the screen in a daze, and he yelled: "Why not go?"
　　 "Oh." Tang Fang came back to his senses. He pulled out the palm-sized miniature PDA on the jack and threw it to Clapham to put it away. Then he nodded to Aros and walked out the door.
　　Because of sharing their vision with the puppies, Tang Fang and his group led Clapham through the South Zone without any surprises, through the connecting passage, and once again came to the silo in the North Zone.
　　 As early as when Clapham issued the retreat order, most of the non-combatants in the Eastern Region had left by medium-sized shuttle and headed for outer space. When several people from Tang Fang "protected" Clapham against the silo hall, the shuttle carrying logistics maintenance and cooking personnel was flying into the sky.
Sporadic firefights came from the Eastern District. When the last MRT II shuttle was ready to start the launch process at any time, the security door facing the connection passage in the silo hall opened. Several soldiers in power armor Run out embarrassed and rushed towards the silo.
　　 "One, two, three, four, five."
　　 glanced over the five surviving soldiers, Clapham's mouth was bitter. The troop strength of a dignified company was actually taken over by more than 30 aliens. Once this matter reached the ears of the high-level troops, his company commander would be regarded as the end.
　　 "Commander, no time, fast forward to the shuttle."
　　 Through the glass windows of the corridor in the distance, one could see a series of flying aliens rushing towards the north area. Clapham sighed, waved to the five remaining soldiers, and pressed the elevator switch.
　　 "The silo is ready, the preheating of the beam electron current generator starts, and the countdown to emission starts."
　　 "Ten, nine, eight, seven..."
　　 The blue flame of the shuttle's thruster cut through the sky, going further and further. The rear base gradually turned into a small black dot and disappeared on the display screen in the cab.
What Clapham and others didn’t know was that when the shuttle entered the vacuum zone of wind and smoke, the main engine ignited and turned into a flash of light and rushed into space. The two dozen puppies raging in the base suddenly disappeared out of thin air. They are invisible and invisible, as if they never existed.
　　 "Tang Fang, Captain Joanna of the Archimedes sent a communication request." Looking at the far and deep endless starry sky outside the window, Clapham calmed his emotions and gave an order.
　　 A holographic three-dimensional star map is intertwined over the console. The young Salton is in the center, surrounded by six planets orbiting it.
As Clapham pressed a few buttons, the camera zoomed in to the orbit of Planet 5, and a spacecraft about 100 meters long was suspended next to the orbit of the Roberta 608 scientific research satellite above the base. .
The head of the 　　 spacecraft is a flat disk with a torpedo-like shuttle cabin in the middle, and a pair of warhead-like thrusters are connected to the back.
　　 This is a pioneer-class scientific research spacecraft with a maximum crew of 600 people. It is equipped with geological prospecting, resource scanning, space laboratory and other equipment. It is the most advanced scientific research spacecraft of the Mongolian Empire.
　　 Since the establishment of the resource exploration base on Planet 5, it has been parked in the orbit of the satellite and is conducting auxiliary research work such as data collection and analysis.
The reason why Tang Fang sneaked back to the base and released the puppy to launch a surprise attack. At first, he simply wanted to get rid of Wei Haitao and remove the sharp thorn hanging over his head. However, when the matter developed later, he changed his mind and tried to calculate and pretend. Save Clapham's life.
Outside the base is a thunderstorm night, with aliens raging inside. If you want to save your lives under internal and external troubles, you can only take the scientific research ship that enters the outer space by the shuttle to escape this way. Once it enters the research ship, it is designed to steal the space shuttle. If the plane leaves, or will he stay in the army to fish in troubled waters, thinking of trying to improve his own strength, is it not his choice?
　　 "呲."
　　 A snowflake flashed on the video screen of the communicator, and a slightly plump white woman in her early thirties appeared in front of everyone.
　　 "Captain Joanna, I must tell you the bad news that the forward base has been attacked by an unknown alien and has fallen."
　　 "Major Clapham, needless to say, I know everything, and I am ready for containment."
　　 "Well, I'll talk about the specific things after I board the ship."
　　 "Okay, I still have some settling work to take care of. Let's meet to discuss the details later." After speaking, the communication was disconnected.
　　 Under Clapham's signal, Tang Fang calibrated the course, lowered the engine thrust, and the shuttle slowly sailed towards the scientific research spacecraft on the satellite orbit.
　　 The shuttle was sliding in the dark space. The five soldiers who survived leaned back on their chairs and snore quietly. Clapham turned his head and looked out the window, frowning, not knowing what he was thinking.
　　 Zhou Ai, Howson and others said nothing, Aros rubbed the last inferior cigar, hesitating whether to smoke it or save it.
　　 Tang Fang handed over the driving rights to the co-pilot Byron, and he turned his mind to the system’s human base interface.
　　The barracks have been built. I selected them and found that the icons of the accessory pendants turned on. That is to say, the technology laboratory and reactor relying on the barracks can be upgraded directly without additional scientific research data to unlock.
　　 Click the hot key X to start the construction of the attached building of the barracks --- Technology Laboratory.
　　 Twenty-five seconds later, the science and technology laboratory was completed, and the barracks were selected again. Three combat units of Marines, Marauders, and Reapers appeared on the production menu.
Marines, commonly known as Ma Run, machine gunners, equipped with power armor, can fight in space and NBC (nuclear/bio/chemical) and various harsh environments, the weapon is the C-14 "piercer" Gauss rifle, can Launch 8MM metal nails at supersonic speed.
　　The looter, commonly known as the Bald Brother, has a stronger power armor than the Marines. It has a K12 quadruple grenade launcher in his hand, which is mixed with the Marines to provide powerful heavy fire support.
　　The Reaper, also known as the Reaper, comes standard with a Gauss pistol X2. He carries a jet backpack behind him, and can jump up and down the cliffs, or cross rivers, cracks, and other obstacles.
　　The production cost of the machine gunner is 50 crystals, and it takes up 1 population. The production cost of the looters is 100 crystals and 25 gas, and it takes up 2 people. The harvester’s production cost is 50 crystals and 50 gas, which also occupies 1 population.
　　The machine gunner has the active skill "Doping", which can increase attack and movement speed by sacrificing a certain amount of blood, but doping needs to be studied separately in the science and technology laboratory. In addition to the active skills, they also have the passive skill "Riot Shield". By attaching to this super alloy shield, they can increase their survival rate on the battlefield. The "riot shield" skill requires additional research in the science and technology laboratory to obtain.
　　 Raiders can't help but also possess the active skill "Doping" and his unique passive skill "Concussion Bomb", which can slow down small and medium-sized target units. "Concussion bombs" are also researched and obtained in the Science and Technology Laboratory.
　　Different from the machine gunner and the raider, the Reaper has two passive skills that do not require additional research. One is the "jet rucksack", which can use the propelling flames of the wing-shaped rucksack on the back to easily fly up to cliffs and high ground. The other is "combat medicine". Once the Reaper leaves the battle, he can use these quick-acting medicines to heal his injuries and restore his injuries.
Three new combat units were added at one time~EbookFREE.me~ Tang Fang’s mouth was almost reaching the back of his head. The queen and spinal reptiles in the Zerg base moved too slowly, so they were only suitable for passive defense, but only for attack. Can rely on puppy.
Since the upgrade of "Metabolism Acceleration", the puppy’s mobility has been greatly improved, far exceeding that of general land vehicles. However, there are corresponding shortcomings. The destructive power of a single body is weak, and it cannot be used in the air and long-range The unit conducts firepower output. Take the previous battles as an example. If he hadn't designed to sneak back to the base and launch a sudden attack from the inside, he would choose to fight a tough battle, attack from the outside, and use the base's defensive firepower, let alone 38, even if the number doubled again. There is absolutely no possibility of being hit.
　　 But it’s better now. With the addition of Terran combat units, the types of arms become diversified, and tactics will become more flexible and changeable.
When his emotions cooled down, he turned his attention to the stock of crystals and gas, and sighed unconsciously. After this battle at the base, a total of 640 points of life energy were collected, plus the previous 100 points, which is 740. point.
In the previous battle, in order to maintain the suppression of the base, 150 points were used to supplement the number of puppies. Later, barracks and technology laboratories were built. The total cost was added together, including 350 crystal points and 25 gas points. .
　　 The remaining Crystal 360 and Gas 515 can be described as returning to the pre-liberation period. This deposit can only produce 4 Marines at most. On the other hand, after experiencing the previous fierce battle, the number of puppies has also declined, from 38 to 28.
　　 Where to replenish the crystal is a big problem to be solved urgently.
