I’m Still Too Weak For the Starter SSS Talent

Tang Zheng had surveyed the terrain of the fortress chosen by him before.

This is the northernmost location of the Scarlet Scythe area. Through a narrow open-air tunnel formed by the interweaving of two mountain ridges, you will enter the territory of Area 98.

Of course, it doesn't matter if you don't go from here, there are two mountains stretching thousands of miles next to it.

As long as you have enough perseverance, it is not difficult to climb mountains and mountains.

From the perspective of ancient war strategies, this kind of terrain is generally a battleground for military strategists.

It belongs to the terrain that is easy to defend and difficult to attack.

However, in a foreign world where human attributes are highly developed, terrain advantages can no longer represent absolute victory.

Simply put, this terrain defense is good defense.

Occupy the nearby hills, set up a few turrets, and use high to fight low.

It doesn't matter if the civilization is not that advanced, ambush a team of archers, the effect is not too weak.

However, when the agility of human beings is fully developed, the speed of marching is not of the same order of magnitude as your speed with bow and arrow.

In layman's terms, no matter how fast your attack speed is as an AD, you must have a forward swing for drawing a bow and a backward swing for shooting an arrow.

And what about the intruder?

The intruders only need to rush forward, and they will win if they rush through the canyon, which is unfavorable for combat.

Therefore, the ancient war strategy may not be effective in other worlds.

Of course, there are no absolutes.

Human power has limits.

But the machine doesn't.

And machines can also overcome many terrains that humans cannot stand on.

In this way, machinery can be placed everywhere near the mountainside.

This is also Tang Zheng's defense plan this time.

However, the great battle was imminent, and it was impossible for him to complete such a huge amount of work with his own strength.

So 50,000 manpower is quite critical.

A group of people moved forward at full speed, and Tang Zheng drove the mech to lead the way.

It took about an hour to travel, and 50,000 players gathered here.

Through the talents and attributes of the players, Tang Zheng set up a platoon leader, company commander, and battalion commander, instantly refining the division of labor among the 50,000 players.

It also gave them a sense of belonging to the army.

Next, through the planning and calculation of the difference engine, the 50,000 players are reasonably allocated to each position.

Everyone has only one goal.

Build machinery!

Build a lot of steel machinery!

Tang Zheng flipped his palms and took out the teleportation totem that had been treasured for a long time.

He has been reluctant to use this thing ever since he was rewarded.

After the totem coordinates are established, they cannot be changed or canceled again.

Long before going to the hub city of civilization, Tang Zheng planted a teleportation totem at the door of his house.

Two totems are needed to teleport each other.

Now that there is one more in hand, Tang Zheng chose a treasured land of geomantic omen for himself, and inserted the totem in place.

In fact, it is a small natural platform near the mountainside, and there is a wide cave in it, which can just place some things, and can also be used as a lookout to observe the surrounding situation.

"Continue to pass on the order. On the first day, everyone will build a building, at least a 6-story high-rise." After Tang Zheng made the general deployment, he left by himself using the teleportation totem.

With a flash of brilliance, he appeared in the small villa by the lake.

Lift up the difference machine and throw it into the inventory.

It was sent back to the defensive fortress through the totem.

After having this thing from a long distance, it can be said to be very convenient.

However, the reason why the teleportation totem is only excellent is largely because it can only teleport one item or life form in one minute.

It is very suitable for a person to carry the inventory to a distant place.

But it is unrealistic to want to transfer machinery or soldiers on a large scale through it.

The time on the first day turned quickly.

next morning.

Buildings that used to take several months can be successfully built in one day when human attributes are strengthened by more than dozens of times.

In fact, there is still time to wait for the cement to dry in this process.

Otherwise, a house can be built in half a day.

Tang Zheng stood on his watchtower, overlooking an area behind the fortress, where a lot of buildings were built.

This place is temporarily used for the players' residence. After they complete their mission, these rooms will not be vacant.

Can be used to place machinery.

For the next day's plan, if Tang Zheng were to arrange it purely by himself, 50,000 people might not be able to refine every process in order.

But with the god of the steam age - the difference engine.

After entering various conditions through the punch card, all of these can be arranged in an orderly manner by the difference machine.

Tang Zheng only needs to wear the results obtained by the difference engine layer by layer.

"Master, the difference engine looks great! How about giving it a name?" Lan Lan's little hand slid back and forth on the thick steel pipe of the difference engine, loving and fearing this amazing big guy.

"Well, it's a good idea, then you can come up with a name." Tang Zheng nodded and handed over the naming rights to Lan Lan.

Naming machines is not just a child's whim.

In fact, in the history of the original world, there is also the habit of naming the first steam engine and the first electronic computer.

The purpose is to commemorate these guys who have helped mankind to make a significant leap in civilization. When they are mentioned by later generations, they will not say vague words such as "that steam engine" and "that calculator".

"Well...how about calling me Xiaoyao?"

Girls' names are also more feminine.

"Why did you think of this name?" Tang Zheng asked with a smile.

"Because it helped us shorten the civilization process that was originally very far away? Does this reason count?"

"qualified."

"Yeah!" The little girl happily jumped three feet high.

In another world, the name of the first difference machine with a prototype of a computer for human beings was decided by a child.

After the difference machine allocated the optimal solution, Tang Zheng took advantage of the number of people and began to excavate the assembly line production project.

For each process, at least three players are guaranteed to make and take care of it.

Some mechanical parts are specially made.

Such as steam engine parts, multi-turret parts, and difference engine parts.

Because each process is divided into details, even if players know how to make a certain part, they cannot complete the final synthesis and splicing.

In the end, the player responsible for compositing and splicing may not necessarily make special small parts.

This can also ensure that one's core technology will not be leaked on a large scale.

Of course, Tang Zheng is not an iron cock.

During these three days, the player with the best performance can get a blueprint for making any branch of the Steam Age.

And in the battalion, the company, including the players in a platoon, those who perform well can also get any blueprint of the Iron Age.

Under the layers of rewards, the players rolled up their sleeves and worked hard, and the output of various mechanical parts increased rapidly.

Tang Zheng was not idle during this period, and continued to produce rigid suspension devices, steam efficient railcars, and two civilized branches.

Among them, in addition to the hard work of the synthesis desk, Tang Zheng's intracranial storm talent also came in handy.

When the synthesis table is occupied, he can still make it by hand, and use the principles that he couldn't understand before.

When night fell on the second day, the team leaders of each group reported today's output.

[Steam engines: 318 units]

[Multiple turrets: 277 units]

[Cannonballs: 5211 pieces]

[Conveyor belt: 35781 copies]

Even the difference engine was produced 78 sets.

Of course, these difference machines are not the giant difference machines that Tang Zheng placed in the cave. In terms of size, they are all just younger brothers.

The size and level are uneven, and some pocket difference machines are only the size of Tang Zheng's palm.

However, although the sparrow is small, it has all internal organs.

Their calculation functions are still retained, but the calculation speed is far behind that of Xiaoyao.

"After all, there are more people and more power. There are 300 steam engines coming out in one day." Tang Zheng couldn't help feeling the power of human beings.

And that's just 50,000 players.

If 20 million players are mobilized to make mechanical assembly lines for themselves, this number will probably double to an astonishing hundreds of thousands of units a day.

Of course, even Tang Zheng couldn't ask everyone to come to work in his factory.

Even if they really come to work in the factory, then the entire Scarlet Scythe area will be worsened...

Now that everyone has come to work, who will do what is needed for human life?

If the power of robots can be used, the priority must be higher than that of humans.

On the third day, Tang Zheng also included the rigid suspension device and the steam-efficient rail car in the factory assembly line.

During this period, he produced the steam type I robot and the huge floating steam airship.

The initial rewards he got in the past two days were very mediocre, so Tang Zheng just threw them all into the inventory.

The third day is over.

The production products reported by the subgroups are respectively.

[Steam engines: 178 units]

[Multiple turrets: 113 units]

[Cannonballs: 2037 pieces]

[Conveyor belt: 12889 copies]

[Difference engine: 21 sets]

[Rigid Suspension: 322 pieces]

[Steam high-efficiency rail cars: 8 units]

[Steam I robot: 3 units]

[Steam airship: 2]

So far, 50,000 players have finished their work and returned home. Tang Zheng also distributed some of the blueprint rewards he had promised to everyone who performed well.

In fact, if possible, Tang Zheng would like to borrow them for two more days.

It's just that the government's funds in the hub city of civilization are tight, and a lot of supplies have been consumed in the past few days. The government's internal capital chain has been almost completely emptied by Tang Zheng.

It can be said that the life-threatening battle that blocked the civilization hub city put all the treasures on Tang Zheng's defensive fortress.

"Master, can we handle the next thing by ourselves? It seems that the fourth district has already started to march... I heard that they are all bringing the latest weapons and armed forces. It is conservatively estimated that 300,000 people will join the battle..." Lan Lan looked at the backs of the 50,000 players leaving in a mighty way, and it was pitch black.

There is some worry in the eyes.

In the evening, while the master was still busy, she went to the forum to check the situation in the past few days.

The rumors of the invasion that were already raging all over the city were confirmed yesterday.

And today, Valentina has led the army towards the hub city of civilization in Shiyak City in the fourth district.

Judging from the gossip released, they have the latest secret weapon. This time, they are bound to point their sword at the hub city of civilization, and level the entire Scarlet Scythe area from point to surface.

Many residents of Civilization Hub City have already heard the news, packed up their bags and started running overnight.

In the era of war and chaos, the stable unification of regions has not been completed. The sun may still be shining today, but the battlefield will be stained with blood tomorrow.

No one can predict.

"It will take at least three days for all their large troops to arrive, which is enough time." Tang Zheng smiled confidently: "At least, we still have three laborers and some memory crystals, which can be completed quickly." Split."

The three steam-type I robots are all products of the four-star excellence class.

Compared with the production capacity of 50,000 players, it seems that even the gap between the teeth is not enough.

However, once the robots start to spread like cell division, the scale may be very large.

Tang Zheng no longer hid it, and threw all the memory crystals to the robot for use.

The three guys with metallic luster in front of them suddenly split into six.

Open the body door in front of the robot, and stuff the set pocket difference engine and pocket steam engine into their bodies.

With each rigid suspension, the internal drive of the robot is connected with the differential engine and the steam engine.

In this way, these guys are no longer dull puppets.

They operate automatically as long as fuel is added.

The steam engine is their heart, and the difference engine is their brain, which can perform some simple mechanized work.

Tang Zheng demonstrated on the spot and pressed one of the densely packed switches behind the No. 1 steam robot.

Command: dance

Soon, I saw the robot in front of me creaking and running, dancing mechanically and stiffly in front of Tang Zheng.

It's just that the bulky limbs don't look very coordinated.

After all, they were not made for this purpose.

But Lanlan's beautiful eyes were still staring round, and her pink mouth also grew into an O-shape. She stretched out her little hand and piapia applauded, and let out a surprised admiration.

"so amazing……"

Not to mention in this era of steam, even in the era of the original world, if there is an artificial intelligence robot dancing in front of you, even if the dance is not good, it is enough to attract a group of people to watch.

In a sense, Tang Zheng's current steam age was comparable to the civilization of the original world.

If the inheritance of these civilizations was also the civilization process experienced by the superiors... then Tang Zheng couldn't imagine how far the civilization of the superiors had reached.

"Go to bed early, there are still things to be busy tomorrow." After dinner, Tang Zheng urged Lanlan to go back to the villa by the lake to sleep after taking a nap.

Now the rudiment of the entire industrial city has been built, but as the unpaid labor force in the city - type I robots, the number is still too small.

Tomorrow's task is to expand the production line of robots as much as possible.

"Master, does this fortress belong to us now?" Lan Lan hesitated for a while, unwilling to leave.

Instead, standing on a small natural balcony, overlooking the assembly line of the entire small city.

With the illumination of kerosene lamps, the whole city is still brightly lit.

The various production lines that can be seen at the end are densely packed, laid out like a circuit diagram.

"Yes, from now on, this is the city that belongs to the two of us." Tang Zheng was filled with emotion.

Along the way, it took nearly three months.

From bare-handed logging to today's own city.

Although it is small, it only occupies a small area.

Although there are still too many things inside it that have not been perfected.

But Tang Zheng believed it.

In time, this place will eventually become the birthplace of all human civilizations.

"Come up with a name." The naming madman Lan Lan urged again.

It is indeed a very fulfilling thing to name a city that is completely your own.

Tang Zheng thought for a while.

Xiaoye, Lanlan, Xiaoyao.

"Then call it, Ye Lanyao."

"Welcome to Night City!" Tang Zheng smiled lightly.
