Knocking wonders from the space station

After watching the Dawn go away, Lu Feng started collecting rewards that day.

The first thing he received was the reward materials. 8,000 scu of basic metal ingots and 8,000 scu of daily necessities were collected. A total of 16,000 standard containers were neatly stacked in warehouse No. 4.

There are also 160 brand-new SCVs in the warehouse, and technicians to drive them are already in place. They will use SCVs to disperse these containers to various units, forming an effective logistics system.

The area around the weather controller has been leveled, but due to adjustments to the plan, some supporting facilities still need to be built in advance and vast underground spaces need to be excavated.

With Shentang's productivity, this work would take a month to complete.

However, the construction progress of the wall and fortress has exceeded two-thirds. When the main engineering team over there returns, the efficiency here should be greatly improved.

Mining modules and production lines also require advance preparation before installation, but with the completion of the fortress, the 24 orbital defense turrets can be deployed as soon as possible, so that Hell's Gate can also have long-range heavy firepower delivery capabilities.

period,

The Xinhuo is back.

It transported back a batch of scientific research results from the wasteland continent, including tanzanite reading samples.

After the satellite is redeployed, the remote detector will conduct a second scan of the Ash Continent to find possible tanzanite veins.

The crystallized bacteria used to extract hazonite are now propagated on a large scale, and several breeding bases have been established outside the Gate of Hell, next to the dedicated extraction station for hazonite.

The collection cycle of these crystallized bacteria is about 30 days, and each collection round can provide the colony with hundreds of tons of refined hazonite.

These crystal yellow hazel stones look quite beautiful when stacked together.

If sold in the interstellar market, it would also be valuable hard currency. All cutting-edge electromagnetic technologies are inseparable from Hazonite, even the dominant civilization.

…

Time flew by, and in the blink of an eye, half a month later, the insect plague was approaching.

In the past half month, Hell Gate Colony has been developing at full strength, and great progress has been made in all aspects.

The first is the infrastructure aspect.

The towering walls outside the Gate of Hell have been completed, the six node fortresses have been capped, and the A4 rail guns of the pyramid-shaped fortress are all in place, and the final debugging work is underway.

6 sunken main traffic arteries and 216 auxiliary traffic lines have been completed and opened to traffic.

The current gate of hell,

Except for the construction vehicles on the surface, all transportation systems have been hidden beneath the surface, making them safe and stable.

All power, liquid, and gas transportation pipelines are connected, vacuum freight channels are connected, and refuge channels are connected.

The six geothermal power stations are operating at 80% power and are in stable condition.

The semi-enclosed ecological community planned around the ecological park was completed. 80,000 soldiers and civilians successfully moved in, and another 20,000 garrison troops were stationed in the fortress and walled base.

In terms of resources.

The various mines at Hell's Gate are well established, and all the refining facilities supporting the raw ore are in place, a large part of which costs 30 million energy coins, which can be obtained from the Oracle Shop.

The current strategy of Hell's Gate is to keep the ore mining and refining speed consistent, rather than mining raw ore in large quantities and leaving it unfinished in the warehouse.

The current output is (unit: tons/30 days):

Refining basic minerals 100,000,

Refining high-grade minerals 1000,

Refined strategic resources 320 (zeolite 140, hazonite 100, tanzanite 80)

…

These resources are the output after refining and can be directly used in industrial production. They are neatly stacked in the warehouse as square ingots and powders that reflect the metallic light.

To be honest, the output is not high and there is still a lot of room for growth.

But as a new colony, the resource output of Hell's Gate can already stand out among the others, and it is enough to supply Shentang's current production line to operate at full capacity.

The Ash Continent is rich in minerals, easy to mine, abundant in energy, and has a unique smelting foundation.

But as a small-scale colony, Lu Feng chose the same development route as the Shen Tang Guards.

On the one hand, Lu Feng and the scientific research department are trying every means to improve the level of smelting technology, improve smelting efficiency, and refine purity;

On the other hand, Hell's Gate limits the large-scale mining plan of basic minerals and focuses on rare minerals, saving a lot of time and resources.

Therefore, basic minerals such as copper, iron, and aluminum are produced by Hell's Gate, but only to a sufficient level.

The output ratio of high-grade minerals such as titanium, cobalt, and uranium is significantly higher. The scientific research department has been improving the mining and refining process, working hard to expand production, and striving to become the flagship product in the future. All that is currently unused is stored in the warehouse.

As for strategic resources such as Haizonite and Tanzanite, since it involves strategy, the more the better. In addition to giving some to Zhong Mingzhao, all the surplus was shipped to the subspace warehouse, and Lu Feng was not planning to sell it for the time being.

Military aspect.

The Shentang Guards did not purchase any big items. The spacecraft above the frigate level were still the same, but some transport boats and interceptors were produced.

Unfortunately, so far, only the S-class production line of the Crescent Mothership can manufacture these advanced equipment, so the output is naturally not high.

However, the results in light weapons are gratifying.

In order to cope with the coming insect plague, Lu Feng temporarily adjusted the focus of production to the armament of the garrison.

Lu Feng originally registered a level 4 force, which included 20,000 garrison troops and 20,000 marines. Compared to the marines, which were capable of recruiting and fighting, the garrison army relied on fortifications for defense, and its requirements were accordingly lower.

Therefore, while the Marine Corps was still undergoing devil training, the 10,000 garrison troops had already completed their preliminary training and were stationed in the walls and fortresses as new recruits.

Equipment for so many people is naturally a problem.

The sophisticated electromagnetic goblin rifle and CMC armored Shen Tang cannot be mass-produced on a large scale, and the output is seriously insufficient.

Therefore, the Academy of Sciences settled for the next best thing and chose to focus on overcoming the technical difficulties of the Fairy Power rifle and military exoskeleton, and finally successfully achieved mass production.

The Fairy Power Rifle is the entry-level product of the Fairy Gun Clan. Lu Feng was the first to use this rifle, and it is very easy to use.

Although it relies on traditional chemical gunpowder to drive it, its operability and accuracy are very good, and it is deeply loved by soldiers.

In order to make up for the lack of power, the Academy of Sciences developed a tanzanite compound and added it to the propellant of the bullet to increase the reaction efficiency, directly increasing the power of the bullet by 20%.

At the same time, the Scientific Research Department has upgraded the ammunition technology, using advanced caseless ammunition technology, and combining it with the caseless version of the compact Elf rifle, which can effectively increase the ammunition capacity of soldiers.

The same goes for military exoskeletons. Although it is just an alloy frame, it has the same load-bearing functions and can help soldiers resist recoil and increase mobility and load-carrying capacity.

For the defenders, this was enough.
