Chapter 676 Friendly Forces Are Sold
Chapter 676 Friendly Forces Are Sold
One of the main features of nanotechnology is that software upgrades are equivalent to hardware upgrades.
By importing the new design drawings into the nano core, new equipment can be constructed. The six-barreled divine arrows are just a small innovation based on the original old-style immortal weapons of the heavenly court, and they have only slightly replaced the traditional immortal bows.
The power is not greatly increased, the firing rate is only increased six times, but correspondingly, the amount of spiritual power consumed by the user is also increased six times.
Immortal weapons can only be used by heavenly soldiers. The one hundred thousand heavenly soldiers and generals are like one hundred thousand batteries that store immortal power. The weapons transformed by the Ruyi Immortal Soldiers try their best to convert the stored immortal power into high-lethality firepower output and project it out.
Compared with the immortal-level Ultron robots, the Heavenly Soldiers are cheaper and more numerous, making them excellent batteries and cannon fodder.
They can use their bodies to continuously transform immortal power by taking low-level immortal pills, which is much stronger than the immortal-level robots that have to burn high-quality immortal jade to generate immortal power.
The cost-effectiveness gap is equivalent to the comparison between a new energy vehicle that consumes three steamed buns of energy per 100 kilometers and a traditional Hummer with large emissions. There is no comparison at all.
Wen Rui has developed many new immortal weapons based on the Ruyi Immortal Weapon nano-platform in recent years, but the one with the highest energy consumption and lethality conversion ratio and the most suitable for the current battlefield situation is the Six-barreled Divine Arrow.
The helmet part of the nano armor is humanely designed with an automatic elixir feeding device. If the armor detects that the wearer's immortal power has dropped to a certain level, it will give a reminder and take out a certain amount of elixir from the bag and stuff it into the wearer's mouth.
It's similar to the principle of an automatic pet feeder.
In this way, the endurance of the heavenly soldiers can be improved more efficiently, allowing them to eat and fight at the same time, turning them into ruthless elixir-digesting machines, and continuously supplying energy to the Ruyi Immortal Soldiers.
The powerful AI also provides assisted aiming function, and even the arm part can automatically adjust the trajectory of the shot. Even if the soldier in the armor is unconscious, as long as he can still eat, the armor can even take over and take care of the whole process.
The firepower arrangement, which has been verified by quantum supercomputing, minimizes the waste of spiritual energy, ensuring that every energy arrow can hit the target, and there are no weak areas in the interwoven fire network.
At first, many heavenly soldiers were somewhat resistant to letting their armor act on their own, but they soon discovered that if they listened to the armor, their hit rate would increase, and they could kill the demon mosquitoes more efficiently.
If you resist the armor, it will only cause more trouble. Not only will you miss your target, but it will also affect your comrades around you, causing one or two magic mosquitoes to take the opportunity to break through the fire net defense line and rush forward to disrupt the formation.
After several adjustments, most of the heavenly soldiers finally wisely handed over the control of their bodies to the nano armor, willingly becoming human batteries and focusing all their energy on taking elixirs to circulate the Qi in the body to convert more immortal power.
Each of the heavenly soldiers turned into automatic turrets, and the defense line became more and more solid. It was much better than the previous situation where they had to fight each other alone together with the magic mosquitoes.
Huang Tianhua also realized that something was wrong. Gradually, no one obeyed the orders he issued, but the defensive tactics organized by the soldiers under the control of armor were very effective. The barrage seemed to have been carefully calculated, and it repeatedly repelled the concentrated charges of the magic mosquitoes.
Occasionally, a huge swarm of insects would suddenly emerge from beneath the sea, as if it were a long-planned raid, trying to break through the defense line by using the explosive increase in numbers and the bodies of the magic mosquitoes as shields to resist the rain of bullets.
At this time, a hexagonal space gate will open in the air, and as if predicting the enemy's surprise attack, a round of far-reaching artillery support will come from the rear to disperse the gathered swarms of demon mosquitoes.
Huang Tianhua felt very familiar with this scene. He had led the Rakshasa Legion to attack the Shura Demon Kingdom in several battles. The same situation had also occurred when the battle was at its most dangerous. The Rakshasa demon soldiers caught in the chaos were suddenly controlled by the nano armor on their bodies, and they were refreshed and immediately organized the most effective counterattack.
When the crisis is over, the nano armor will promptly release the trusteeship status and return control of the body.
Huang Tianhua realized that Wen Rui was playing battlefield micro-manipulation and map expansion in the rear information center again. He had forcibly deprived him of his command authority, controlled every soldier like chess pieces, and personally manipulated the army.
He felt extremely unwilling and thought that this was the greatest humiliation for a commander. He was obviously the Grand Marshal of the Heavenly Army appointed by the Jade Emperor himself!
But one has to admit that under Wen Rui's micro-control, both the Rakshasa demon soldiers of the past and the heavenly soldiers and generals of today have exerted several times more combat power than usual.
Huang Tianhua felt humiliated and powerless. No matter how hard he tried, he lived under Wen Rui's shadow and could not touch his clothes no matter how hard he struggled.
All the glory and status of the Grand Marshal recognized by the gods have become false at this moment. At the critical moment of life and death, he still has to rely on Wen Rui to take charge and clean up the mess for him.
Controlling 100,000 heavenly soldiers at the same time is something that Wen Rui, with his level 5 intelligence, cannot do. The only one in the Three Realms who can perform micro-control to this extent is Jarvis, who has mobilized all the computing power of the Demon Alliance.
Wen Ruike had no time to take care of Huang Tianhua's fragile self-esteem. It would be a pity if all the 100,000 heavenly soldiers and generals, such excellent biological batteries, were killed or wounded in this battle.
He doesn't have that many immortal-level Ultron robots and high-level immortal jades. Even from an economic perspective, he has to do his best to preserve this group of best cannon fodder.
If Wen Rui didn't know how ferocious the Blood Sea Demon Mosquitoes were, he would have hoped that the heavenly soldiers and generals would suffer heavy losses, so that when they rebelled in the future, every fewer soldier would be a shame.
But the situation is different now. The Blood Sea Demon Mosquito poses a greater threat. We have to choose the lesser of two evils. The heavenly soldiers and generals that we originally wanted to take advantage of have now become popular. We must make good use of them and squeeze out every last bit of value. We cannot waste them at will.
According to supercomputer simulation, even if the gods kept taking drugs to replenish their immortal power, the heavenly soldiers and generals would not be able to support the ninety-nine and eighty-one days. The Western religion's plan to hold a ceremony to purify the sea of blood was doomed to fail.
Wen Rui had made up his mind to use the boiling frog method to slowly test the bottom line of the heavenly soldiers' willingness to accept armor control. At first, he would just move the arm armor slightly to increase shooting accuracy.
Then the leg armor moves a short distance and adjusts the stance slightly.
Gradually, when the energy and physical strength of the heavenly soldiers declined to a certain level and they also adapted to the combat method of letting the nano armor control their bodies, they found an opportunity to abandon the entire Western Church Monk Corps and strategically move forward. They did not need to outrun the pursuing magic mosquitoes, as long as they ran faster than their friendly forces, they could successfully retreat to the Ghost Gate base and establish a second line of defense.
As for the Western monks, their way of practice is different from that of the heavenly soldiers. Their power system is based on magic power and willpower. They are not even qualified to take drugs as human power batteries. Their biggest role is to attract firepower for the heavenly soldiers and generals.
When they retreat, flares must be fired over their heads to point the direction for the demon mosquitoes.
