Tower Defense Strategy

Chapter 202: Lava Plain

Different dimension.

Since finding the relics of the Xianjun Empire, the exploration of different dimensions has a direction.

After the kitten studio hired players and veterans to complete the handover, the general direction has not changed, but the first person to operate the Mi Luo account after the change is not sober, eager to get it twice, the action team is completely wiped out and changed again the second time.

Why is account based?

Milo’s account has been transferred from the Army Combatant to the Army Command Department, and he is already a captain, but the new studio players come together to guess that the captain is not difficult to use. It is estimated that he wants to make good use of the account’s impression of the octopus boss.

After Mi Luo's account changed hands for the second time, the exploration progress slowed down again. Before every action, he carefully scouts the surrounding conditions of the entire route of action. During the action, reconnaissance planes will also be deployed at any time to ascertain the situation.

The survival rate of the outing operation is guaranteed, and resources that are not rich in another dimension are saved in disguise. The scale of the mobile force at the station is now a bit larger than when it first changed hands.

The day before yesterday, after receiving a notice from Octopus about the construction of a different dimension gate, after a meeting of the new combat members of the studio, they decided to take this opportunity to move.

The scale of different dimension mines is too small. If you dig a few thousand tons, you can dig out. If you dig more, you can only dig 10,000 to 20,000 tons. But note that the tonnage here only refers to minerals, not multi-purpose. Finished ore.

After several mines around the station are emptied, each mine will have to lay several kilometers of pipe corridors. Occasionally, the mine will be destroyed by monsters. Several times back and forth, the benefit of opening a mine is even lower.

So don’t look at a group of players with a bunch of NPCs thinking about how to develop. In fact, the accumulation rate after the initial stage is very limited. Up to now, on average, only about four thousand ores are used to make mechas and infrastructure a day, and the rest is all It was lost in repairs, ammunition, fuel, supplementary water collection towers, etc.

Don’t look at four thousand a day as if you can make two ruby ​​editions or nine whiteboard rubies. Actually, you can’t help but wear out. Just three days ago, the resident ushered in the first level 2 monster attack, and more than 70 mechas were exploded. , I returned to the farming era overnight, and finally did not ruin all the previous efforts.

It is foreseeable that if the station is not moved, the next ore will become more and more difficult. Maybe one day it will only be able to maintain the ammunition and fuel expenditure. If it encounters a second-level monster, it will be completely destroyed.

In this combat group meeting, a consensus was quickly reached to move, but where to move, how to move, and what if there is a level 2 or level 3 monster near the target?

Combining the results of reconnaissance exploration in the past two months and some hearsay scientific knowledge, it was decided to start sweeping mines from the lower reaches of the lava river.

Geological movement is the main cause of the formation of minerals. As a kind of geological movement, volcanic lava itself is also regarded as a kind of resource, but the lava cooling material may not have the enrichment that can be exploited, and it will take a long time to erode and Numerous vibrations to deposit.

But the players have no better choice.

The iron wall can be prospected, but it has no force. It needs guards if it leaves the base area. Therefore, it is impossible to have many units prospecting together. Therefore, the scope of the complete prospecting is less than 30 kilometers in radius and farther. Both determine a safe point, and then explore one or two kilometers from the safe point.

The sparsely explored land determines that opening a new station can only be the same as mining. The target is first booked, and then cleaning and exploration are carried out. The lower reaches of the lava river seem to have the greatest hope.

However, minerals are not the main reason. After a long period of exploration, they found that the concentration of atmospheric dust is lower in places with lower altitudes. It is easy to understand this situation by comparing dust to clouds.

The lower reaches of the Lava River are the areas with the lowest elevations that have been explored. They are about a thousand meters lower than their current location. The visibility of the power armor can be close to 800 meters, and the visibility of the mecha through fog mode can exceed 1,000 meters. The electrostatic precipitator has a visibility of two to three kilometers, making it easier to defend.

After the meeting, I made some preparations and pulled out most of the existing mobile units at the base, and even brought a set of different-dimensional door keys. If the station was gone when I went out, this unit was the hope of a comeback.

By the way, the 2213 Division has newly formed a mecha wing to cooperate with some armies in the development of different dimensions. Without them, it would not be possible to move so many mechas.

Under the attack of the previous level two monsters, the pilots of this wing were attrition very serious. The newly added corporal pilots were all corporal pilots. The morale of the veterans was so low that their faces were as dark as the bottom of the pot, and they also had headaches.

Speaking of driver supplementation, it is nothing new in the player group. Except for the top leaders of the leaderboard, which commander has not exploded a few NPC alliances, there is only one way to deal with the incomplete alliance, which is to add new recruits. .

Although the mechanism allows expansion and synthesis, such operations need to maintain the integrity of the organization. For the mech wing, the death of more than ten pilots is the organization's dissatisfaction. Even if the formation of the alliance and the brigade is completed with some show operations, it is still in a state of non-full organization and morale punishment.

In short, the recruits and pilots of this mech wing are still researching at the base. This exploration operation has taken away most of the veterans and player pilots. The station is basically an empty shell and can only rely on a few player pilots. , I don’t know if we can find the driver of the farmer when we need it, and the turret of the station to cope with emergencies.

After a trek of more than 100 kilometers, the team fought a few waves of small monsters, because a few pilot players were no longer able to do it, and they had to stop.

Therefore, sometimes players are really wasteful, unlike NPC soldiers, they can always march by continuing to reduce their morale, and they can even march for more than fifteen hours at a time.

In order to cope with this situation, there are actually NPC drivers in the team who are prepared to act in power armor.

However, I just ate the monster and killed many comrades in arms. Now the morale is really terrible, so I simply used the players offline to arrange on-site rest and vigil.

Early the next morning, most of the player drivers continued to lie down on the armored personnel carrier modified from the ammunition truck, replaced the NPC driver, and continued marching.

It took another hour to walk 30 kilometers to reach the farthest point previously explored, which is called the lava plain by the players.

The name was not taken randomly. It is a few kilometers from here, and the altitude is the same. Aside from some small bags that are 20 to 30 meters high, the average fluctuation does not exceed 4 meters. In addition, the local topography is dominated by basalt, accompanied by rhyolite (acidic eruption), and the surface has certain mature characteristics, which means that the geological movement that formed the landform has been tens of millions of years.

The plain is a paradise for all kinds of unmanned vehicles. UAVs will explore the way ahead, and self-propelled guns will continue to advance as the front array.

In the next few games, kill two little monsters and a group of little monsters.

There are not many monsters, maybe it has something to do with the plain terrain, which is much better than the worst-case scenario.

After making a circle, I stopped and rested. The drone kept on searching.

Two hours later, it was proved that the total area of ​​the plain was more than 300 square kilometers, the shape was similar to that of a kidney, and it was not very regular.

There are lava rivers in the west, southwest, and southeast of the plain, but probably the source is far enough, there is basically no fluidity, it just continues to pile up at the place where it converges.

First use the things you brought out to make a simple camp and start prospecting.

Less than half an hour after the exploration started, a huge diamond mine was discovered.

But there is nothing to be happy about. Diamond or diamond in "Planet Strategy" is considered the same species as graphite and can be substituted for coal... well, it is fuel. Other gadgets will use diamond tool knives, but they don’t. The amount can be said.

After a certain period of further exploration, the preliminary estimated reserves of the diamond mine were confirmed to be about 300,000 tons.

It is really luxurious to use 10,000 tons to calculate diamonds, but everyone can see clearly that diamonds are the mineral with the largest reserves in nature. Any geological movement may generate a new super mine. The reason why everyone thinks this thing is every 0.2 gram. (One carat) can be worth tens of thousands, which are all stereotypes created by jewelers' uninterrupted advocacy for more than 100 years.

A diamond mine of 300,000 tons, placed in a different dimension, can synthesize various fuels with the atmosphere and water, which is almost equivalent to a coal mine of 600,000 tons.

Of course, fuel has no future in different dimensions due to the problem of atmospheric oxygen, but it can also manufacture various carbon elemental materials such as graphene and nanotubes. In short, carbon is consumed in mecha manufacturing, especially the part of life support modules for personnel. Large, the mine’s digging capacity of more than 100 tons per hour will certainly not be consumed without making fuel, and it will be enough to mine for several years. Compared with the mines previously mined, it is already a giant.

This also proves that the player's decision is correct, and there are treasures in the lava settlement area.

With this ore base, even if there are no mixed mines and chemical mines that can directly produce ores next to it, it is enough to determine the resident migration plan. After all, what everyone values ​​more is a better view in the low altitude area. The ore, you can always find it if you take the pipe gallery and look for it outside.

In the following days, two more diamond mines were discovered in the plain area, both of good scale. In addition, at a depth below 400 meters, a chemical mine with reserves of 20,000 tons and three metal mines were found, including an iron ore with more than 50,000 tons.

Before the minerals in the plains were determined, after the second diamond mine was found, the resident migration began.

After trying an ore handling, the player simply picked up the ore and laid it directly over the pipe gallery.

Including the ups and downs between the two places, it must be calculated by detours, and the pipe gallery must be laid for 160 kilometers!

But so what? The octopus boss is willing to shop for a 500-kilometer super pipe gallery. The unit price of the pipe gallery is 80 mines per kilometer, which is much cheaper and older than the super pipe gallery.

With the pipe gallery, those mines that have been proven around the original site but have small reserves and incorrect composition can be slowly utilized.

Moreover, the mines that are already being mined can also transport more than 10,000 ores to the new site after the pipe gallery is finished.

When Milo (new) notified the resident relocation plan, he also bought some good things from the octopus boss.

Geothermal power generation node.

This thing is not called a power station, but a node. The deployment is similar to wind energy and is placed outside the base. According to the octopus boss, it is because the core and geothermal heat are restricted by laws and require a very high level of approval.

Mi Luo didn't understand it at first, but when the geothermal power generation node was built, everyone talked about it and understood what was going on.

Two words, UU reading www.uukanshu.com environmental protection.

Yes, it is environmental protection.

In the interstellar age, the energy consumption capacity of human beings far exceeds the understanding of the earth globe people. Looking at the artificial sun, it has only 2000 electricity. You can probably guess the unit of measurement for people. 1 electricity is probably one megawatt or more.

What is the concept that a base of octopus consumes tens of thousands of electricity per hour?

If there are more bases for this kind of electricity, and it can be drawn from the core without restraint, it is conceivable that the mantle will be hardened (cooled) in a few years!

The geothermal power generation node they use now only uses surface heat, and the deepest depth is no more than one kilometer. After two days, the diamond mine less than 400 meters away from the node shows that the temperature of the drilling layer has dropped by two degrees!

Fortunately, the lava plain at your feet is so powerful that you can pass Baidu for a few meters underground, and there can be several Baidus at 300 meters. Generally, the geothermal node is used too much, so it will become an ice sheet in less than a month?

Based on this new experience, they simply deployed several nodes near the confluence of several lava rivers to prevent them from suddenly flowing.
