Chapter 455: Chapter 333 Changes_2
He was also a part of the test, but at this point, his Insect Armor was covered with many unexpected, fine cracks, showing no signs of self-healing.
“Lock them all up, apply sufficient paralytic toxins, and then send them to the research center.”
Zhu Xiong removed the mask of his Insect Armor and strode over to Gao Mingwei.
“Brother Gao, two Third Order Crystal Mine Fruits coupled with my surge in spiritual energy have already exceeded the armor’s limit. If the battle had lasted any longer, it might have collapsed from necrosis. High Order breeding armor might need further upgrades.”
Zhu Xiong shared his experience, as Gao Mingwei nodded in agreent, “Right, I noticed that, given the current amplification effect, the Insect Armor is suitable for First and Second Order warriors. Third Order Contractors, which include so of our Deputy Commanders and Commanders, need higher-grade breeding armor.”
He thought for a mont, and then explained in more detail, “First Order warriors are suited to the standard Insect Armor. Even with the overfrequency mode, the energy core’s integration should only reach the level of Second Order single core at most. Otherwise, their bodies might not withstand it if overloaded.”
...
“Wouldn’t it be fine to just simplify it into a standard Green Dan Stone mode?”
Zhu Xiong, the bruiser, interrupted Gao Mingwei, his cheeks jiggling as he grinned, “Fast deploynt is king. Besides, for First-order Contractors, isn’t it better to simply summon the Apostle for combat? Is hand-to-hand fighting really necessary?”
Gao Mingwei paused, and Zhu Xiong continued to explain, “First Order combat is not as perilous as High Order. Spiritual energy rifles, hand cannons, and other long-range weapons are more useful than direct combat. Therefore, the armor is just an extra layer of protection to enhance overall strength, not for maximizing its combat potential. Equipping everyone, suitability, and adaptability are the key points.”
Gao Mingwei seed thoughtful, “High Order battles are more dangerous, requiring greater personal strength. Contractors themselves are a significant force. They often engage directly in combat and worry about being ambushed. Hence, the more effective, the better?”
“Exactly, that’s the idea. Even if you ask Old Yan, the ‘expert,’ he’d say the sa. Who the hell provides new troops with full sets of Barretts and Gatlings? Even the Ard Forces don’t go that lavish.”
Gao Mingwei understood and quickly said, “I’ll go back and make so changes. This simplification is easy; soon, we’ll be able to establish breeding nests.”
As they talked, the entire factory was rapidly searched.
This was an old factory, sparsely populated even before the apocalypse, and now completely devoid of life.
If not for the Fallen being pushed into a corner by the Tree Domain Troops, they might not have hidden here.
The other researchers had gathered more detailed combat data and handed it over to the two of them.
The Insect Armor squad of thirty suffered two seriously wounded, thirteen lightly wounded, four Insect Armors were completely destroyed, and seven were damaged yet capable of slow self-healing.
Energy consumption was the highest, with four fully depleted Third Order Crystal Mine Fruits, and many others reaching half consumption.
If truly converted, it would be equivalent to using approximately seven or eight Third Order Crystal Mine Fruits.
The four spiritual energy exoskeleton chas were similar, but with slightly lower energy consumption, around five.
The reason for the lower consumption was not because of their lower output, but because of the integration of the hard Titanium Alloy into the overall structure of the chas.
While not a complete replacent, it was enough to protect them from much of the damage.
Undoubtedly, this was a battle won with resources.
Ten or more Third Order Crystal Mine Fruits were exchanged for the defeat of two Third Grade Superiors.
Judging by Third Order resources alone, it’s hard to tell if it was a gain or a loss.
But in a fight to the death, it was a trendously profitable deal.
The Tree Domain had no casualties.
Second Order had overco a Third Grade Superior, effectively adding a Third Order combat force out of thin air to the Tree Domain.
Though unleashing full Third Order combat strength required certain conditions, its significance was entirely different.
Moreover, the Crystal Mine Fruits were, in a sense, renewable resources as long as the Nine-Snake Mother Tree was there.
After everything was packed up, three modified trucks carrying the drugged Fallen hurriedly headed towards the interior of Hengchuan City.
As the convoy neared Hengchuan City, about one kiloter away, the mist gradually beca lighter and the vehicles slowly entered, a towering stone tower ca into view.
The stone tower was about ten ters high and one ter wide, built of pale yellow rocks, and at its top, a human head-sized Ancient Tree Crystal was placed.
The mist was dispersed by the Ancient Tree Crystal, and looking out, on both sides of the road, on slopes, in the wilderness… every two hundred ters or so, there was such a stone tower.
The towers shone brilliantly, like stars fighting against the blanket of fog that covered the sky, a spectacle as if from another world.
This was the peripheral fog-free zone, established by the Construction Corps one by one, and also the controllable outer area that the Tree Domain was gradually solidifying, expanding more living space.
The Nine-Snake Mother Tree had previously upgraded the Black Rock Tree Monster to LV8, covering an area of two hundred kiloters, and with its eight thousand in number providing a solid foundation for the rapid advancent in construction.
During Su Han’s half-month trip to the Wushan Base, five hundred of the eight thousand Black Rock Tree Monsters were constantly set aside as contract units for Tree Domain residents with enough Contribution Value and the intent to join the Construction Corps.
The Construction Corps expanded at an extrely fast pace, and successively established branches in South City, Huiyuan City, and the now conquered Hengchuan City.
