Chapter 177 Wind Wing Insects, mass production, departure to Jincheng

Hearing Lin Feng's question, Zhiyi put away his pretentious acting skills, stood up slowly, and then asked:

"By mass-producing these membrane wings, do you want to create a group of flying soldiers?"

The biological armor on Lin Feng was able to fly, and Chi Yi knew this.

The source of this function is the synthetic material provided by the pair of muscular membrane wings on the back of the green winged insect, which is then integrated into the armor through Lin Feng's superpower.

At present, Lin Feng looked at the broken second-order insect eggs. The waste liquid was mixed with the insect tissue peeled off from Zhang Liying's body, including fragments of the transparent membrane wings of the green winged insect.

After taking these off, the girl's skin recovered and became smooth and flawless. When she left, she finally showed a smile from the bottom of her heart.

Zhiben thought that Lin Feng stopped him because he wanted to use the stripping and purification ability of the biological brood to reduce the infection of Zerg genes and extend the combat life of his future genetic assimilation regiment.

But his real purpose...

But he narrowed his eyes once or twice and asked a question.

When he heard the other party's question, Lin Feng nodded and admitted:

"That's right. The number of green-winged insects is rare, and the wind-winged insects have not even shown traces yet, making it difficult to collect biological materials on flight..."

Lin Feng shifted his attention from the Zerg organization on the ground to the biological mother nest behind Xie Yi.

After the peeling surgery, it remains active and can be repurposed for other uses.

"If this biofactory can mass-produce the materials I need, what conditions can you offer?"

Not only do battle armors need to incorporate membrane wings to synthesize flight capabilities, but future Dreadnoughts and their replicas will also need to use the membrane wings of flying insects to provide additional attributes of ground-effect flight.

This is also the reason why they can ignore terrain factors and gallop freely on land.

However, when the Dreadnaught Battleship reaches the peak of the second stage, its average speed is no different from that of the Flying Wing Chariot. This is precisely because the second-stage orange-quality membrane wings have not yet been obtained...

That's why its driving speed stagnated.

Greenwings are rare in number, and windwings are even more elusive, cruising above the clouds without ever revealing their true form.

I had never considered this issue before. The team I led at that time only consisted of dozens or hundreds of people. As long as they went through a few more battles, they could collect the required flying membrane wings.

But now there are more than 5,000 second-level legions and soldiers under Lin Feng. Even if only one-tenth of the elite troops are equipped with flying armor, they will still need to hunt more than 500 green-winged insects.

Not only is it time-consuming and labor-intensive, it will also be noticed by the Queen Mother and she may plan an ambush, which is very dangerous.

In the future, with the large number of soldiers, the demand for flight will only become more and more urgent.

The swarm of flying soldiers has the perfect time and place in the frontal battle with the Zerg. If they are equipped with a shotgun, they can break into the rear of the insect swarm and kill them.

In this way, even an elite team of dozens of people can suppress a swarm of tens of thousands of insects in a few minutes.

Although the current firepower of the Dreadnought Battleship is enough to wipe out any Zerg, when Lin Feng chooses a base in the future and takes root, he will face the same predicament as the federal capital today...

Encircled by several or even a dozen Zerg Queens, the demand for air strikes and air defense pressure will increase exponentially.

So you must take precautions now and prepare early!

Especially when the decisive battle in Wucheng is imminent, if a group of flying soldiers can be trained before the decisive battle, there may be unexpected miraculous effects by then!

After hearing Lin Feng's answer, Zhiyi slowly spoke after a moment of silence:

"Do you know why there are so few second-order wind-winged insects?"

"Because their production costs are extremely high. The ability to fly is incompatible with spine worms. You have also been to Shen Jie's world of killing and understand the environment of the spine star. The spine worms have not evolved flight genes since ancient times... "

"So Greenwings and Windwings are actually the product of genetic fusion. Their flying membrane wings are derived from flying races found by the Zerg on other planets, creating first- and second-order flying units to deal with the enemy's air power. "

"The cost of producing a green winged insect is about ten times that of an ordinary black spine insect, while the cost of a wind winged insect is even higher, reaching more than twenty times that of a second-order tiger spine insect."

"This is just one point. Compared with the production cost, the food required to maintain their survival is more than ten times that of spine worms of the same order. After all, the energy consumption in flight is directly proportional to the flight speed. Greenwing worms can fly for two to three hours. You need to eat again to recharge, and the second-level wind-winged insects are more frequent.”

"So flying Zerg are relatively rare on the battlefield, and they are rarely used to attack ground enemies because the cost is too high and each one is precious."

"Many of the Zerg races that have not encountered aerial attacks, their mother queens have not even cultivated second-order wind-winged insects. The same amount of biomass energy can be exchanged for twenty tiger spine insects, which is the most cost-effective."

After introducing the flying units of the Zerg, Chrysalis lowered his head and looked at the fragments of membrane wings in the cocoon egg skin:

"So if you want to rely on biological mother nests to synthesize membrane fins, you will have to spend thousands of tons of fish meat in the early stage to build a mother nest that can hatch the membrane fin structure,"

"After that, the production cost is that one pair of membrane fins can be obtained for every ten tons of fish meat, and ten tons of meat are enough to meet the needs of ten thousand humans to survive for two days."

"The cost of doing this is not low, and once the biological mother nest is built, it is very troublesome to move it. The reason why the Zerg invasion and expansion is so slow is because the mother nest in the underground cave needs to be decomposed, transported, and rebuilt."

"There is no point in defending Wucheng. There are plains on three sides and Taihu Lake behind. There is no place to defend and no place to retreat."

"Even if you want to build it, you can't build it in Wucheng. You may try Jincheng, which you plan to occupy later."

"But I won't do it for nothing if I tell you in advance."

Ling Yi stretched out his right index finger and shook it:

"When the decisive battle is over, all the subordinate Zergs of the queen in Jiangbei will belong to me."

"After the queen is killed, these Zergs will fall into a state of being leaderless and flee in all directions. It will be time-consuming and laborious to kill them, and the gain will not outweigh the loss."

"When the time comes You just follow me and sneak in. After you kill them, take over the out-of-control swarm of insects and then counterattack the Queen Mother of Haicheng unexpectedly. "

"How is it? This is a perfect plan, isn't it?"

"And it's good for both you and me."

Lin Feng chuckled:

"It's a good plan. You can kill with a borrowed knife. It's just right to continue to block the attack of the Queen Mother of Haicheng, so that your Queen Mother can smoothly enter the third stage. "

Ling Yi smiled faintly. These were her original private plans. After observing Shen Jie and the others, she had a new understanding of the way humans get along.

So she said it out to let Lin Feng know her subsequent arrangements.

Being honest is the first step to get closer to each other.

Fortunately, Lin Feng didn't mind anything, and just continued to speak:

"In the decisive battle, I just want to kill the queen mother and complete the transformation of the team. You can do whatever you want with other things, but before that, you have to build the biological mother nest first. After I go to Jincheng tomorrow, find a place to do it."

"I will prepare the necessary materials in advance."

After that, the roar of the engine came from outside the house, and the ground and the whole building also shook slightly.

It should be the soldiers who went out for actual combat training and returned with the dreadnought battleship.

Lin Feng walked to the door and turned back to leave a sentence:

"Clean up here, don't leave any evidence."

Then he left the experimental building.

Ling Yi looked at his back as he left, while controlling the biological mother nest to shrink and dissolve, while narrowing his eyes, thinking about something secretly.

On the other side, after listening to the reports of Chen Yanyan and the front-line commanders, Lin Feng made a summary:

"This victory is the debut of the dreadnought battleship, which can effectively deter the ambition of the Queen of Haicheng and buy precious preparation time for the final decisive battle."

"But you are lucky to win this victory. Because in the encounter in Changcheng, the new second-level Zerg under the Queen's command, such as the pulse war scorpion with long-range attack and the tank flame armor that is completely immune to the damage of the shotgun, were mostly eliminated by me and Captain Shen Jie in advance, resulting in the Queen of Haicheng not sending them this time."

"Otherwise, according to your offensive strategy, as long as the pulse war Scorpion is several kilometers away, and firing pulse cannons remotely will inevitably cause serious casualties! "

"Next time during training and actual combat, remember to send out several scout teams, select elite soldiers in the team, and then be led by members of the regiment to go deep behind enemy lines, conduct long-range reconnaissance in advance, and eliminate the second-order Zerg hiding in the cave. "

"However, this task is quite difficult. After the new flying armor is put into mass production, a flying battalion will be formed to hunt down Zerg air forces and attack the new second-order Zerg hidden behind the Zerg tide! "

Hearing the new news announced by Lin Feng, the commanders present all showed excited and expectant expressions.

After all, the ability to fly is definitely a life-saving weapon on the battlefield, and it can also double the combat strength.

The effect brought about is just as Lin Feng introduced, it will be a qualitative leap.

This will change the future battlefield ecology.

The surface combat that used to stay only on the sand table has instantly become three-dimensional, from two-dimensional to three-dimensional, and the war strategy and deployment of troops must also be changed accordingly to adapt to the new offensive means.

The applause died down, and Lin Feng nodded:

"Let's adjourn the meeting. Please stay for a while."

After everyone left, only Lin Feng and eight captains were left.

There were nine late-stage second-level awakeners on the battlefield. If any one of them was placed in any organization on Blue Star, he would be able to stand alone.

But in Lin Feng's eyes, this was far from enough.

Among the top combat forces, only he and Shen Jie had the ability to fight against the peak second-level tiger spine worm alone, and Wei Ya, who could face the mother queen directly, had the strength to challenge her!

Therefore, Lin Feng needs a stronger cutting-edge force:

"Regarding the genetic modification plan that the federal high-level officials have been promoting before, it is also called a genetic warrior. You should have a general understanding, especially the veterans of the 13th Division."

"Colonel Qin Hu, a second-level awakener born in the 13th Division in the past, is such a genetic warrior."

"In fact, there are natural genetic defects in the physical attributes of humans. This will cause the awakeners who naturally enter the second level after killing the tiger-backed worm to be much weaker than the tiger-backed worm in terms of physique."

"But you don't have to worry. After drinking the organic nutrient solution in the second-level insect eggs you killed, you can repair this defect during the awakening process."

"But repair alone is far from enough."

"The warrior hunter insects that were stitched and hatched by the Zerg Queen are also humanoid second-level Zergs that caused the loss of the chariot. They are synthesized from Zerg genes and human brains. At the same time, they have the strong physique of the Zerg and the spiritual wisdom of humans. Their strength is far above that of human awakeners of the same level."

"And in the future decisive battle, we will fight them hand-to-hand and start a head-on battle."

"In order to reduce unnecessary losses..."

"So, I plan to make a preliminary attempt at the Genetic Warrior Project. Those who are willing to undergo surgical transformation and fuse into Zerg genes to gain a strong physique can apply before tomorrow morning. They will go to Jincheng with me tomorrow morning for surgical transformation."

"Don't worry, the success rate of the surgery is 99%, and the safety is absolutely guaranteed. After becoming a genetic warrior, you will get a 100% physical attribute bonus. This means that the awakened ones in the early stage of the second level will have a physical enhancement bonus. It can directly reach the middle stage of the second level.”

"But everything comes with a price."

"In the future, genetic warriors will easily fall into mental confusion and develop defects such as Zerg body characteristics on their bodies, just like Captain Shen Jie did before. But at present, we also have corresponding solutions that can purify these contaminations."

"Anyway, you can consult Captain Shen Jie for the specific situation. This is not mandatory, it is just one of the quickest ways to become stronger. Let the members make their own decisions."

"As long as the genetic warriors in the future get through the difficulties, they will be able to grow into a leader like Captain Shen Jie, who will have the strength to stand alone."

"Okay, let me know."

After saying that, Lin Feng stood up and left the conference room.

Then he found Chen Yanyan and Li Ran and informed them of their travel plans for tomorrow, so that they could arrange follow-up training work.

"Shen Jie will stay. Now, apart from me, he is the only one who can deal with a group of second-order bugs, especially the samurai hunting bugs. I'm worried that the Queen of Haicheng will send here to test the truth or destroy the camp. In this case, Shen Outstanding appearance.”

"Don't worry, I will definitely come back the day after tomorrow at the latest. Don't worry about my safety. Just stay on guard at all times!"

…

After dinner, Lin Feng concentrated on processing the biological materials collected during the day.

Thousands of pairs of black spine insect jaws can be synthesized in large quantities to produce lv10 red mysterious armor, or they can be equipped with lv19 red mysterious armor for grassroots commanders, greatly improving their defense.

With less than a hundred pairs of tiger spine insect giant jaws left, Lin Feng first gave himself a flying tiger armor and upgraded it to the full level:

"Flying Tiger Armor lv29/29, orange quality"

"Durability: 10/10, defense 1000, basic form: arm guard, full body armor, power of tiger and insect (unconditional)"

"Variant form: absolute defense, explosive scale armor, flight mode, call to charge, upgrade reserve: 16"

"Conditions for upgrading: Integrating a golden quality material"

Because no other materials were added, the effectiveness of the simple orange-quality giant jaw decreased as it was synthesized. In the end, only the basic defense increased, and even the new variant state did not appear again.

However, after reaching the full level, the conditions for upgrading will reveal the quality of the materials at the next stage.

Golden quality materials, corresponding to the third stage.

Lin Feng instantly thought of the golden light that appeared in Zhi Yi's eyes when he activated his mental state ability.

It seems that the Queen Mother must have the third-stage golden variety material on her body.

By then, if the second-level battle group is strong enough to drag out the body of the high-level queen, it might be possible to give it to the lv29 Dreadnought Battleship for a fusion upgrade!

However, in order to achieve cross-level upgrades and kill high-level queens, it still has to continue to look for them.

The Huaicheng area further north of Jincheng is also full of Great Lakes reservoirs, and the other three Queen Mothers that invaded Jiangnan Prefecture should all be there.

Lin Feng was thinking about the future while synthesizing the remaining orange giant jaws into a lv20 black tiger armor.

After a night's rest with Chen Yanyan...

Early the next morning, when he arrived at the square, he saw as many as sixty or seventy second-level awakened people who had come to submit their applications, including the leader of the Second-Awakening Group.

Looking at the two group leaders, Lin Feng nodded:

"Let's go!"

"Remember to bring the corpses of those second-order tiger spine insects with you!"

"They are one of your Primarchs!"
