Wasteland Development Diary.

Chapter 338 [Mirror Force Field] and [Death Ray Cannon]

The division returned.

On the way back, Zhou Yi began to reflect on the flaws exposed in this high-intensity battle.

The company has no shortage of high-end combat capabilities. Not only that, it has a lot of them.

But in high-intensity combat, they are powerless.

The concentrator was supposed to be a powerful weapon, but its attack was completely ineffective and it was locked by the mechatronic army's mist weapons.

Skeleton Man Wu Yi was also targeted and attacked soon after joining the battle.

It entered the seabed, preparing to create quicksand to lock up the enemy fleet, but found that a large amount of sand became extremely heavy and consumed a huge amount of energy.

This was a special sand-like material thrown by the opponent, which greatly reduced Wu Yi's ability and consumed a lot of energy at a rapid rate.

The enemy also used an instrument that could absorb moisture from the air into mist to humidify the sand, further restraining the skeletons.

Nigge's operation of Blackthorn did have a surprising effect, single-handedly destroying a crucial A-class battleship of the enemy. It has great explosive power, but poor endurance, and relies on close-range melee.

In essence, everyone is fighting alone.

Zhou Yi remembered the words of the old mercenary St. Petersburg.

"Coordinated operations require training. Every round of attack is very important! Sometimes the difference between life and death in battle is just one more effective strike!"

"The more diverse the combat units, the better. This will create more offensive space and more maneuverability in battle."

The company's employees are strong, but their ability to work together is too poor.

It is difficult to display your abilities when you are targeted.

There is a lack of a commander role to give orders and arrange tactical plans, to connect and effectively utilize the capabilities of everyone, and to allow them to work together to produce a chemical reaction.

I can command the warrior crabs myself, but if I switch to a high-end game with complex abilities, my current understanding of the battle may not be able to keep up.

After thinking carefully, Zhou Yi looked at the assistant next to him.

"Yuanxiao, I plan to let you be the company's combat commander, responsible for the on-site combat command of the A-level employees to form a three-dimensional combat. High-end combat forces also need to cooperate with each other, rather than charging into the battle one by one."

"I?"

The angel of death was surprised: "But I... I have no experience in command. I used to be alone."

"It's ok."

Zhou Yi said confidently: "You are a professional warrior with rich combat experience. You have excellent battlefield judgment ability. "Fatal Note" can see the enemy's health bar and identify the opponent's fatal weakness when the target's health is low."

"This alone is enough to make a decision and concentrate our forces to kill and break through the enemy individually."

"It's not that I don't want to, but... Chairman, the battlefield changes rapidly, and I can't guarantee that I can exchange information with them in time. And I can't communicate with the Concentrator at all."

There was bitterness in Yuanxiao's voice.

"let me help you."

Zhou Yi said: "I will be your messenger and pass your orders to every member on the battlefield simultaneously. But you also need to construct a set of effective tactical instructions."

"Jiong Hecang and Wu Yi have had similar cooperation before, which played a significant role in the battle in Shuanghe area. I hope to expand this tactical instruction so that more employees can understand and master it."

"If I'm not on the scene, you can tell everyone your orders and tactical intentions by issuing instructions."

Yuan Xiao pondered for a moment and said, "I understand, Chairman. I will do my best to do this well."

"In fact, our company has quite a few A-level experts. With Ni Ge and Sun Hao, there are five in total, not counting the atmospheric creatures. We just need to bring out their strengths and combine them to show strong combat effectiveness."

"Yes. I'll leave it to you. You've worked hard."

"No. To be honest, I'm a little excited now. The hunters of the Angel of Death love to deal with powerful prey! Although learning knowledge is also good, hunting is my favorite activity."

There was undisguised excitement in her eyes, and wisps of white hair stood up on her white clothes, like a cat with its fur standing on end.

……

Return to Sand Harbor.

Zhou Yi first ordered all departments to remain on alert.

Although the nearest energy storage city was destroyed, the Coral Mouth, a large transportation hub, was only 1700 kilometers away. A new round of military formations could be assembled at any time to attack the company.

Jiong Hecang volunteered: "I will go to investigate the nearby electromechanical cities and determine their movements."

Zhou Yi said: "Be careful."

It is the fastest and has measuring capabilities, making it a great scout.

Mechanical and electrical cities have anti-reconnaissance equipment, which means that satellites cannot capture their true situation, so on-site confirmation is the safest option.

Then Zhou Yi contacted several sea lords of the alliance.

They had sent a lot of messages before, but the war was tense and Zhou Yi had no time to care about them.

“…That’s basically the situation.”

Zhou Yi held an online video conference with them: "Everyone, please remain highly vigilant and share any abnormalities you find, especially regarding the machinery or optical printing units built by the electromechanical city. This is to avoid threats and impacts on the lives of ordinary residents in various regions."

The sea lords were all extremely shocked and talked a lot.

"This is the first time that the Mechanical and Electrical City has been destroyed by external forces since the universal protocol was connected!"

"The battle was so fast that I didn't even have time to react and deploy troops. I didn't expect it to be over..."

"Great news! This time, the company not only directly thwarted the enemy's large-scale attack, but also destroyed an important medium-sized city of the enemy. This is enough to buy us more time and space."

"But the Mechanical and Electrical City went crazy this time really suddenly. Aren't their procedures always complicated? They actually completed the assembly and dispatch so quickly... It seems that in their assessment, the current situation is extremely unfavorable for them. Only war can solve the current problem."

"I didn't expect this winter to be such an all-out war..."

Zhou Yi asked Hongjian to share detailed information with them.

He himself started doing something he really liked.

Count the loot.

Now is the time to relax after the battle.

703 took Zhou Yi all the way to Yalong Bay.

The captured warships and aircraft were concentrated here and dismantled and modified to ensure that they would no longer be controlled by the mechatronic city.

All members of the programming department are busy here.

A number of enhanced control systems were placed under the mushroom house, and various wires and tubes connected these captured military units. In addition to several electromechanical programmers, there were also three young programmer assistants running around.

Zhou Yi recognized them: Black Hand Mushroom 102, Chen Ji, and Beta.

703 said excitedly: "Chairman, we have obtained a lot of priceless data from the Energy Storage City Data Center."

"This includes detailed intelligence on the United Security Guard."

"This is a coalition formed by 138 electromechanical cities using a universal protocol to trigger military orders. All cities have been put into a wartime state, and all production is tilted towards manufacturing military units, supplying logistics, and enhancing data processing and confrontation capabilities."

"By the time we breached the Energy Storage City, the United Security Guard had three corps, with 3 brigades under them, and each brigade had a strength ranging from 46 to 2000."

"The ones attacking us are the Second Corps' First Brigade. They are the Second Corps' trump card force, with 2600 military units. Their units are very strong, and their overall combat power rating ranks fifth among the guards. They are truly elite."

Zhou Yi frowned when he heard this.

In other words, there were at least four armies of the same strength and scale as the one that attacked Shagang before.

If it weren't for the strategic force of atmospheric life, it would have turned into a meat-mincing war. At that time, the powerful logistical capabilities of the United Guard would be fully demonstrated.

The manufacturing capabilities of the electromechanical city are converted into military strength, and its intensity is truly astonishing.

Zhou Yi immediately asked: "Can you determine the speed at which they produce various military units?"

"unconfirmed."

703 said: "Because the Energy Storage City itself is not responsible for manufacturing, it mainly provides parking, transportation, maintenance and charging functions. It is more like a large front-line military base. There is no data record in this regard."

"However, the First Brigade of the Second Corps is gathering in the Energy Storage City, so the detailed intelligence of this army is in the data center."

"The range, firing rate, destructive power, usage environment and defects of the first brigade's long-range light-in-the-air missiles are all recorded very clearly."

"Based on this data, we can transform the seven captured warships and nine aircraft into optical printing machine units for the company's service."

Zhou Yi asked: "Is there any information about death ray weapons?"

"Yes! Two death ray weapons, both equipped on the A-class ship."

The robot dog projected an image on the ground.

There are two strange-shaped devices on the screen.

The first one is a metal sphere, which releases energy to form a layer of light wall that can cover the surrounding area. When external attacks touch the light wall, they will form mirror-like polygonal structures, and then the energy will be dispersed and absorbed into the sphere.

"Chairman, this is the death ray weapon [Mirror Force Field]."

703 introduced: "It was made by Mirror City and is rated A+."

"The mechanism of this weapon is an extension and modification of the alien's ability to absorb external energy. It can disperse and transmit the impact energy within the force field, forming a blocking defense that can eliminate up to 95% of the damage."

"Even against light nuclei, this mechanism can form an effective defense."

Zhou Yixin said, no wonder the concentrator's light sword couldn't break through the A-class cruiser.

This defense mechanism is really awesome.

He thought again: "But didn't Nigge, who controlled Blackthorn, penetrate the cruiser?"

"Yes, the effect is quite limited when dealing with light core bodies. Because this force field has several structural modes, you need to choose the corresponding gear to deal with different types of attacks. Blackthorn's light core body breakthrough and flash are not included in the data model, so the general mode can only offset about 40% before being penetrated by the strong force."

Zhou Yi listened silently.

The mirror force field consumes a lot of combat data, and it is easy to be killed by the first sight when facing unfamiliar attacks.

But its strength is exaggerated, and it is almost indestructible against opponents with sufficient data.

The second death ray weapon displayed by 703 looked like a columnar platform.

In the dynamic picture, it rises slowly, concentrates a large amount of energy on the front column, and then releases a beam of light outward.

Zhou Yi remembered this. After the atmospheric creatures descended, the last A-class cruiser launched a powerful anti-aircraft attack using this weapon, and also shot out black light tracks.

"Chairman, this is the [Death Ray Cannon], rated A+, made by Xue County."

"It collects and gathers the dead light in the natural environment, combines it with its own energy to build an energy beam of sufficient intensity, and then releases it to a specific area."

703 said: "The [Death Ray Cannon] requires a high-intensity death ray environment. The Dead Sea is the best. The effect on land is much worse."

"It has to continuously store energy. The longer it stores energy, the more energy it can gather. In theory, it can reach a level infinitely close to that of a light nucleus."

"When facing us, it doesn't have that much time to charge, and against atmospheric creatures, this non-targeted energy has limited lethality. However, if it is replaced with other units or cities, if they are hit, most of them will be destroyed instantly. Its strength is very high."

"Both of these death ray weapons require energy from the 'energy pool' to activate. They consume a lot of energy and take a while to activate. Only large warships with sufficient strength can handle them."

Zhou Yi nodded.

The enemy came prepared and launched a military attack on Shagang with a forced march.

If they really get close to Shagang and enter the long-range strike range of 50 kilometers, we will be at a great disadvantage this time.

"And what is that cloud that is locking the focusing body?"

"That's not a death ray weapon, but a special device [Bubble Reflector], a device that targets energy-state life and energy attacks."

The robot dog said: "This method uses special materials to create highly reflective foam, which disperses and refracts high-density energy in large quantities, thereby temporarily trapping it in that environment and forming a defense zone."

"The energy of the light collector was dispersed, causing it to be unable to determine the surrounding situation, so it did not dare to break out rashly."

Zhou Yi was really eye-opening this time.

The technical reserves of the mechanical and electrical city are indeed rich, and the arsenal is diverse.

703 said confidently: "We have obtained a lot of detailed data. We don't have to be afraid of similar units and weapons attacks anymore!"

"If the enemy dares to come again now, without more powerful new weapons, they will not be able to gain any advantage!"

Zhou Yi didn't feel relaxed at all.

Although it seemed like our side had won this battle, the process was actually very dangerous, and victory or defeat depended on a split second.

“It’s a pity.”

703 added: "Once the electronic account in Energy Storage City is disconnected from the outside world, it cannot be used. There is no way to gain any benefits from the enemy's account. The light seeds have long been transferred from the frontline cities... They have made a plan in this regard."

Zhou Yi didn't care: "We have already gained a lot of spoils this time, and we have also achieved the most important strategic deterrence goal."

At least it can bring some peace to Shagang for a while.
