Chapter 496: Sea Base Upgrade Program

  Chapter 496 Sea Base Upgrade Plan

   Now Chen Feng's two vehicles are level 45.

  According to Chen Feng's plan, he wants to give priority to upgrading the sea base vehicle, upgrade it to level 50, and enlarge the base's 'area', 'defense' and other characteristics.

   Now the global natural disaster is frozen, the temperature is getting lower and lower, and the ice layer on the sea surface has become thicker and thicker.

Just now, Chen Feng also learned that the ice layer has increased from ten meters to eleven meters. If this continues, when the extreme temperature of 273 degrees absolute zero will be temporary, the ice layer on the entire sea surface may reach 100 meters or even kilometers. Or completely frozen.

   At that time, even if the ice is broken, there is no seawater, and light vehicles such as aircraft carriers will not be able to travel, and everything can only rely on sea bases.

   This is why Chen Feng has been anxious to upgrade the base.

   Even if he doesn't get the system's integer-level rewards as soon as possible, if Chen Feng prioritizes upgrading the aircraft carrier, maybe he is already level 50 or higher, how can someone like Amirshui surpass him.

   Since he prioritized upgrading the base, Chen Feng simply budgeted how many materials would be needed to upgrade the base to level 50.

   After all, system rewards that are one level higher than golden quality are still very attractive, and it is the best to get them.

   The current base is level 45.

  Upgrade material requirements:

   Wood (230,000 remaining, 50,000 needed)

   Plant fiber (220,000 remaining, 50,000 needed)

  Iron (130,000 remaining, 60,000 needed)

   Copper Block (100,000 remaining, 40,000 needed)

   Silver Nugget (60,000 remaining, 20,000 needed)

   Gold Nugget (20,000 remaining, 3000 needed)

   Platinum (180 remaining, 50 needed)

   Battleship or Fortress Heart (10 remaining, need 5), Cruise Ship Heart (20 remaining, need 3) or Sailing Heart (700 remaining, need 30) or Raft Heart (1000 remaining, need 1000)

  The number of residents who meet the standard: 1000 required, currently 1740

   After reading the materials required for the base upgrade, Chen Feng frowned. Every time the upgrade is successful, the materials for the next level will increase, and the amount of improvement is about 1/10 of the previous one.

   The materials on Chen Feng's body at present, if you upgrade the base, there is no problem with two or three levels, but if you want to upgrade to level 50 in one go, it is definitely not enough.

   Except for some rare gold nuggets and platinum Chen Feng, because there are many treasure chests opened, there are a lot of materials after decomposition, these materials are still abundant, but all other metal materials are scarce.

  Wood and plant fiber are easy to say, you can directly use the survival points to buy them in [trade].

  Because this type of material is only needed for vehicles in the direction of the fortress development, such vehicles are relatively rare, so these materials are not valuable on the market and can be easily purchased.

   But metal materials are not only expensive to purchase, but also have a price and no market. It is difficult to buy them. Even if Chen Feng keeps buying, I don’t know if I can receive 1,000 units in one day.

  Rough calculation, iron, copper, and silver blocks are all in short supply, and each will cost about 400,000, 300,000, and 150,000.

  It is definitely impossible to reach level 50 in one go. At present, Chen Feng's more than 600 subordinates are all mining under the sea.

   Zhou Lingrui and the others used submarines to dig rare metals. In one day, there were about 50,000 and 20,000 copper and silver ingots.

   In other words, if you want to rely on your subordinates to mine and collect materials to upgrade, it will take at least three days.

   This time is a bit long. Chen Feng knows that although he warned Amir Shui before and also knows that he has no hourglass props for the time being, if the cargo is good and he is not afraid of death, he will upgrade first, then Chen Feng will have to worry about it.

   So, even if it only takes three days, Chen Feng doesn't want to wait.

  Chen Feng sat on the sofa in the control room, rubbing his chin, slowly thinking about how to quickly obtain materials.

   After thinking about it for a long time, Chen Feng felt that there was only one way to do it right now.

   There are more than 1,000 old, weak, sick and disabled people brought by Sophie Bin in the base last time. Although they signed a resident contract scroll, they have been placed by Chen Feng in the cabin of the base to eat and wait to die.

   Now they want to increase the mining speed, don’t they happen to be ready-made!

  If more than 600 mining people become nearly 2000 people, then the mining efficiency will be increased by about three times, so it will take three days to upgrade the base to level 50, only one day is enough!

It’s just that they are all old, weak, sick and disabled. If they want to have a certain ability to work, they must take [the old, weak, sick and disabled repairing medicine]. There are more than 1,000 people, and each person has a bottle of medicine with 1,000 survival points. That's one million survival points.

Chen Feng now has 1.03 million survival points on his body. After helping the old, weak, sick and disabled to become normal people, there are only 30,000 left. He has to upgrade them to level 1 enhancers, which is more than 100,000 survival points. It's not difficult to have a poor survival point, and you can get it together from Ma Xiaoting and the others.

  Chen Feng smacked his lips, more than 1 million survival points, the number is really scary, if it weren't for the fact that he had been mining a lot these days, he would not be able to get 500,000.

  Since it is used, Chen Feng is not distressed. Anyway, his subordinates have excavated a lot of metal materials today, and they can refresh their survival points tomorrow. It is estimated that they can return at least one million points.

   Turning more than 1,000 old, weak, sick and disabled into labor force is the real wealth.

   Just do what he says, Chen Feng plans to upgrade the sea base vehicle with the materials at hand until the materials are exhausted, and then go to the old, weak, sick and disabled.

   Open the attribute bar of the base, and Chen Feng directly chooses to upgrade.

  【Material deduction is successful, your sea base vehicle is being upgraded to level 46, the required time is 24000 hours! 】

   [Acceleration BUFF: There are currently 1950 creatures, each person can reduce the upgrade time by 100 hours, and the upgrade time of 24000 hours is completely reduced. 】

  【The sea base has been upgraded to level 46 successfully! 】

   There are nearly 2,000 intelligent creatures in the base. After triggering the acceleration buff, the more than 20,000 hours of upgrade time disappeared.

This makes Chen Feng very happy. He is willing to upgrade the base. The main thing is that the vehicle in the development direction of the base has an acceleration buff compared to the vehicle such as the aircraft carrier. As long as there are enough intelligent creatures on the base, even if it is not a resident who signed a contract with Chen Feng , it can also reduce the upgrade time, make the upgrade time disappear completely, and an hourglass does not need to be used.

  The base was upgraded to level 46. Chen Feng glanced at the materials. Except for the heart of the raft, the other materials were enough to upgrade again.

  For minor upgrades, all kinds of vehicle hearts can be used, but the lower-level vehicle hearts need more quantity.

   The hearts of the raft that the newly arrived old, weak, sick and disabled for Chen Feng and Chen Feng himself were finally used up.

   Below, Chen Feng chose Sailing Heart and started to upgrade.

   The heart of low-level vehicles, Chen Feng, has a lot in his hands, so he doesn't panic at all.

  【Material deduction is successful, your sea base vehicle is being upgraded to level 47, the required time is 26000 hours! 】

  [Acceleration BUFF: There are currently 1950 creatures, each person can reduce the upgrade time by 100 hours, and the upgrade time of 26000 hours is completely reduced. 】

  【The sea base has been upgraded to level 47 successfully! 】

   The two upgrades were successful, and the metal materials were almost consumed, and the upgrade could not be continued.

   The current base, because it has been upgraded two levels in a row, has changed its attributes again.

   One is the width of the outer land, and the other is the [House] and [Port] that can be built.

  The width of the metal ground on the outer ring has increased by 200 meters again, reaching 700 meters, including the 500-meter-diameter fortress in the center of the base.

  The diameter of the entire base reaches 1900 meters, which is truly a steel island.

   Buildable house port changes:

  【House 0/400】

  【Port 3/4】

   The buildable facilities added again. Chen Feng does not plan to build them for the time being. One is that they are temporarily unavailable, and the other is that there are not enough manpower.

   Take advantage of the time when the sea surface is not completely frozen, and dig on the bottom of the sea as soon as possible.

   Temporarily upgraded the base to level 47, and Chen Feng got up and went to the lower building in the base fortress, ready to give those old, weak, sick and disabled a gorgeous transformation.
