How Am I Still Alive?

Actual combat is always the best mentor. No matter how good the tactics designed in the plan and blueprint are, they may be shattered by a wave on the battlefield.

Once, humans and fishmen compared their mobility under the sea. Even with the help of underwater motorcycles and the blessing of gods in this regard, humans spent a huge amount of money to gain an advantage in speed, and then found that it was meaningless.

What's the use of your speed alone? Can your underwater motorcycle go in a straight line like a live fish and change direction, and can it accelerate and decelerate along the underwater undercurrent?

Not to mention the "radar skin" and "sound wave detection" that are standard for fishmen, which are simply overwhelming advantages in the low-light or even lightless environment of the deep sea.

In actual combat, just like what happened to Lu Ping'an, when you punch, not only will your movements be deformed by the water pressure resistance, but the opponent will also sense the water pressure in advance and easily avoid the difference in the physiological structure of both sides, making it a duel without fairness whether it is a naval battle or a land battle, and the fishmen will be quite uncomfortable on land.

Most of the hot weapons and firearms are useless underwater. It is difficult to deploy heavy weapons underwater. The tip of the knife and the long handle are quite uncomfortable. On the contrary, the "stabbing" weapons such as daggers and harpoons are slightly easier to use. The opponent's fishmen are masters in this area.

But humans are not vegetarians. After a period of hard work and death battles, they have long found new tactics and weapons.

"I really didn't expect that the spinning stone weapons would sell so well here."

The strong traditional weapons that only rely on kinetic energy have played an amazing effect after being quasi-contaminated.

Most gunpowder weapons fail directly underwater, and only a little self-heating is needed to bring strong kinetic energy underwater heavy hammers, jet harpoons, and shotguns, which are excellent at close and medium distances.

Long-range? This thing has poor controllability underwater, and it can't be expected at all.

".The only problem is that this world is not the origin of materials, and the output is limited, and the cost of foreign transportation is too high. But after the East Country intervened, this does not seem to be a problem. This business should belong to me."

Lu Ping'an is probably the most powerful arms dealer in this world. The mass production and customization of quasi-contaminated weapons and taboo items, even if there are a few master craftsmen who can compete with him, they are not as random as he is on the assembly line.

Magic pets (including magic plants) and extraordinary weapons are the most profitable product chains in his hands, and they are also the foundation that supports the increasingly large Rebirth Chamber of Commerce.

In fact, Lu Ping'an was invited to the front line to sell weapons and promote logistics construction.

"Have you started the birdcage tactic? You are really willing to give it up."

It's not just Lu Ping'an who is doing business. As far as he can see, more large ships are coming.

As soon as these freighters arrived, they opened the guardrail on one side and started throwing things down.

"Boom!"

Giant diving bells like houses were thrown into the water. They will stay at the predetermined depth and become local permanent locations.

If the battlefield environment is not suitable for us, then change the battlefield.

Underwater buildings were thrown into it, most of which would be out of control or destroyed by attacks, but as long as there were enough of them and enough soldiers to replenish them, a permanent defense line could be established underwater.

"Boom!"

Right in front of Lu Ping'an, something even more outrageous happened.

The cargo ship that had thrown away all the cargo began to sink slowly right where he saw it.

But the strange thing was that the speed was slow, and the hull was still balanced, and there were lights on it, as if it was still operating normally.

Looking at the giant ship slowly sinking into the sea, Lu Ping'an understood.

".It's not enough to have a bunker, do we need walls and mountains?"

More ships were slowly coming, and after they completed their transportation tasks, they would become underwater shelters.

Fighting with aquatic tribes without any cover on all sides? Why not give us some time to lay the ground and return to our best line fighting.

"It's really not cost-effective at all."

This kind of line-pushing tactic has long been proven to be effective. First, build an underwater city, which is equivalent to blocking the attack direction of the fishmen in all directions, and then gradually push it in.

But the cost of this thing is too high. For small and medium-sized forces, it is better to get a ship and fight it.

"With the big boss paying the bill, the whole venue can consume as you like."

Now that the super big boss Dongguo is paying the bill, and it is destined to be a long-term war, then there is no need to hesitate to continue to spend resources.

The construction on the water has never stopped. Within Lu Ping'an's sight, he saw at least five large artificial islands.

There are not only houses on it, but also factories and entertainment facilities.

This technology is also in the hands of a big boss of the Linnv Church.

"It seems that it's not just me, but others are also full of orders."

As far as Lu Ping'an can see, due to too many manufacturing orders, in just half a month, metal ores and finished metal ingots have appreciated by at least 30%, and even mining excavators, transport ships (ocean excavation), underwater bombs for blasting mines, etc., have begun to soar.

Lu Ping'an actually has a big order in hand now.

"How can we make the lamp flower survive underwater and have penetrating light? Isn't this embarrassing for me?"

Although he complained like this, Lu Ping'an had no intention of shirking his responsibility.

In terms of the division of spoils and industrial division of labor in this world, the most valuable thing in Lu Ping'an's hands is the "lamp flower trade". The basic ability of lighting and heating is quite useful, and the slight pollution-repelling property makes it impossible for anyone to refuse to put more at home.

Because the lamp flower is so easy to use, even the "electric light" in this world is developed but no one buys it.

"Why do lights need to be connected to wires and have to pay for electricity? The electricity cost is too high, and a lamp flower can be used for many years."

If those female bosses in the forest really open the technical class to mass-produce electric lights, they still have to solve the problems of power supply and water pressure. The research and development funds are enough, but I don't know how long it will take.

Then, it is better to "use mystery if science can't solve it". As long as the funds and benefits are in place, the boss will personally show how to rub it by hand.

Customizing underwater lanterns to provide underwater lighting is Lu Ping'an's current largest order. The sales volume of a single one is not high, but once it becomes a necessity for armaments, it will be a long-term and huge order.

"I have no doubt that they will throw underwater lamp flowers for underwater light. Compared with directly building an underwater fortress, this little money is nothing." Just imagining the grand scene of lights everywhere underwater, Lu Ping'an feels that he has made a fortune.

At this moment, Lu Ping'an is really optimistic about his own side. Unless there is a gap in the strength of both sides in the war, the final competition is still a competition of comprehensive national strength.

With the crazy investment of the Dongguo official, a big boss who is not short of money, the winner in the end is naturally the one with more money and resources.

Lu Ping'an's progress in developing underwater lantern flowers is also quite smooth. After all, this is not from scratch, but more of an integration of past "examples".

In the past ten years, there have been countless variants of lantern flowers and lantern trees. This is not the product of Lu Ping'an and the Rebirth Chamber of Commerce, but part of the "samples" released have been cultivated and modified by other gardeners, and part of them are naturally reproduced and replaced. In the end, there are lantern flowers all over the world, but the appearance, type, and characteristics are completely different from one species.

In fact, many people in the folk have already taken lantern flowers into the water, and there have been new examples of offspring subspecies produced by fusion with aquatic plants.

What Lu Ping'an has to do is to collect this kind of underwater subspecies, then extract its biological module, repeatedly try and error, and finally come up with a cheap subspecies of lantern flowers that can emit underwater lights.

In fact, Lu Ping'an did it just a few days after arriving at the front line, but now Lu Ping'an is still trying to improve it, hoping that the underwater lantern flowers have stronger deep-sea adaptability and can protect themselves underwater.

In fact, with this investment, he is developing weaponized underwater magic plants.

"Is this a scam? This is to be responsible to the users. Since the funds have not been spent, we must bring out the best products." At least that's what Lu Pingan himself said.
