The Decision Is Made! An Eighty-Meter Destroyer!

"Mini Destroyer is a general term for the destroyers included in the design drawings, and does not refer to a specific type of destroyer."

Any design blueprint of rare rarity level will come with a memory transfer, which will provide a brief introduction to the design blueprint.

In this unfamiliar memory, as Su Mo began to examine it, different scenes appeared one after another, accompanied by narration.

The drawings contain Destroyer Blueprint from three stages, also divided into three levels.

Level 1 can activate nine attributes, Level 2 can activate a maximum of six attributes, and as for Level 3, even if you do your best, you can only activate three attributes.

This special rule, which the design blueprints conveyed to players from the very beginning, was the principle that level determines everything.

Even in the later introduction, this point is still being conveyed.

After quickly skimming through all the brief introductions, Su Mo rushed straight to the detailed descriptions of the three different ships in this memory.

[First-class ship, length 182.5 meters, beam 24.1 meters, draft 8.1 meters, full load displacement 15,000 tons, crew of 140, cruising speed 30 knots, maximum speed: 42 knots]

The ship comprises nine components: a multi-functional phased array radar *1, an LBVDS lightweight wideband variable depth sonar *1, MKM-1 Vertical Launch Unit *30, C-3 Offshore Anti-Submarine Helicopter *2, 556 Permanent Magnet Electric Motor *2, 800mpa Full Composite Material *the entire ship (a better material approved by the design drawings can be used as a substitute), D-1 Electromagnetic Railgun *1, stealth coating *the entire ship, and an integrated underwater and surface weapon combat system *1.

[Three key features: Unsinkable: When the hull durability is above 30%, it will never sink regardless of any damage to the hull or any rules.]

[Six parts: Double speed: The ship's cruising speed is directly doubled, and the ship's maximum speed can be doubled even with material durability loss (the longer the time, the faster the loss)]

[Nine parts: Automatic repair: During the voyage, once the ship's durability drops below 99%, automatic repair will be activated, restoring 10% of the durability every 24 hours.]

"Holy crap, this is insane! Is this even within the category of Mini Destroyer?"

Clicking his tongue in amazement, Su Mo's eyes instantly filled with longing as he looked at the attributes of this first-class destroyer.

Regardless of the ship's basic attributes, the equipment it carries is more terrifying than many cruisers on Earth.

If this ship could be built on its own, let alone any Ocean Alien Race, even the Ocean God Su Mo would dare to challenge it.

"The Technology Tree is still developing too slowly. If I could provide all nine required components, that would be better."

"But now even the composite materials used in the hull are beyond my capacity to handle, what a pity!"

The items are great, but my wallet is empty.

After glancing longingly at the Tier 1 destroyer once more and reviewing the requirements for the Tier 2 destroyer, Su Mo set his sights on the Tier 3 destroyer, which had the lowest requirements and seemed to be the easiest to achieve.

[Third-class ship, length 76.43 meters, beam 10.2 meters, draft 3.3 meters, full load displacement 5635 tons, crew of 174, cruising speed 24 knots, maximum speed 31 knots]

The ship consists of three parts: 400Mpa Special Steel * the entire ship (a better material approved by the design drawings can be used as a substitute), Basic Combat System *1, and Fixed Heavy Firepower Weapon Slot *12.

[Three-part: Ramming: Consumes 10% of the ship's durability to launch a five-minute ramming attack in a designated target direction (speed: 45 knots). Upon ramming the first unit, the accumulated energy will be released, and the ship's speed will return to normal (can only be used once per calendar day, can store three ramming opportunities, ramming recovery time 24 hours)]

"70 meters, almost 80 meters for a third-tier ship! That's more than double the 40 meters I originally envisioned."

Of the three tiers of ships, it seems that only the tier 3 ships can currently achieve the required component attributes.

Special steel is selected using military-grade steel with a strength of 440 MPa. The Basic Combat System requires computer programming. As for the heavy firepower weapon slots, those are the easiest to solve.

Simply fixing 12 Type 80 Machine Gun in different positions on the ship is enough to achieve the design requirements.

As for the three derived skills, they are quite useful for tier 3 ships.

"You can designate a target and charge at 45 knots for five minutes to ram it. Although each use consumes 10% of its durability, it's more practical than a level 1 ship for escaping!"

Low EQ: Barbarian King Charges High EQ: Escape Artifact Between the two, Su Mo glanced at the sky, which was already three o'clock, and quickly closed the base gate, leading the four little ones down to the lower level.

Destroyer construction was a no-brainer.

Since the design drawings only provide three options, even though the third option is a bit over budget, we can't worry about that now.

Making changes based on the proportions without proper planning will not only fail to trigger special abilities, but may also cause other structural problems.

"If things go wrong, I'll just drive off in my assault rifle. So what if the steel plates are a little thin!"

An 80-meter ship requires a certain amount of steel plates, and even if Su Mo, the old swindler, tries to save money, he can't risk his life.

Therefore, in terms of manufacturing, it should start at least at 4,000 pieces, and even more so at 4,500 pieces when reinforcement is emphasized in certain areas.

As a result, the huge material shortage will not only consume all the iron stored in the base, but even copper blocks will probably be left with very little.

Given the lack of this material, Su Mo had no choice but to sacrifice the terrifying thickness, reducing it slightly to make up for the lack of steel plates.

With concerns about the materials, the initial excitement of upgrading the evacuation shelter diminished considerably.

"The materials market has been revamped, and materials can now be sold with only half the tax. Hopefully, we can collect some of that and alleviate the material pressure on the shelter!"

With Ocean Disaster looming, basic materials will undoubtedly become the next hot commodity, like seeds sown in the ocean.

Su Mo had no solution for this market, so he could only try opening the World Channel to see what other people thought.

Yesterday, it rained heavily all day in the wasteland, and everyone was trapped in the shelter, which relieved a lot of their physical fatigue.

Some people even managed to get a good night's sleep during the day, and then became energetic again at night.

Although it was past 3 o'clock, the number of people discussing the topic was no less than usual, and even more so because of the update.

"I'm taking in heartbroken girls who haven't saved enough food during the Welfare Disaster. 160cm tall, good looks and figure are all that's needed. Farming Genre may break your heart, but I'll make you swoon. Farming Genre may be heartless, but humanity is compassionate. I'll bear your anxieties. Even if Farming Genre makes you sad, I'll still be your warmest harbor."

"This wave, this wave is a complete disaster, this wave is a reshuffling of the deck! Brothers! We may not know how to Farming Genre the wasteland, but we are familiar with things like raft survival, ocean survival world, Subnautica, and Ark: Survival Evolved. We start with a small raft and evolve into an aircraft carrier to roam the ocean in thirty days, okay?"

"Are there any die-hard supporters here? This mountain is 2280 meters high, and the sea level is 1020 meters. I'm not planning to leave. I'll just make do with living on this mountain for the rest of my life."

"Seventh Heaven, the pioneering team for the New Continent, is recruiting! No matter where you are, as long as you are willing to go to the New Continent, you can add us on private message to contact us. We will then discuss the flight path, determine the destination, and once we go to the New Continent together, we will be brothers. Our motto is: To be the strongest pioneering team!"

"Are there any mountain-dwelling patrons willing to sign a contract to sell grain? I'll sell you the grain first, deducting half the tax, and then you'll ship it to me daily. I'll take a 20% commission, but you must provide the altitude and water level of your location. If the difference between the two is less than 1500 meters, please don't bother me."

"Basic materials are out: copper, iron, lead, stone, and wood. A variety of basic materials are being sold online. Only food will be exchanged; nothing else will be. If you don't understand me and are just trying to snag a bargain, get lost. If you're willing to negotiate, we can do so. We have plenty of stock."

"Looking to buy small wooden boats crafted by artisans. Requirements: excellent level or above, and vehicles that can be bound to the system core. As long as your craftsmanship is decent, the price is negotiable. There are many people in the base, and we need three boats. Team orders are welcome. If you have the skills, please contact me via private message as soon as possible!"

"Fuck you, I'm at an altitude of 12,000 meters here, what the hell are you doing? This stupid game, why don't you just give me the Bermuda Triangle!"

"Where's Su God? Su God's base is so powerful, it's a bit unrealistic to just give up like this, isn't it?"

"I think you're blind. Did you even watch the trailer? Su God casually killed tens of millions of alien races, okay? He might even wipe out this bullshit Ocean God. Then we'll have Welfare Disaster, how wonderful!"

"Hey Su Supporter upstairs, hurry up and join our Su God support group! We can keep in touch at sea. I already have hundreds of brothers here!"

"."

Messages flashed across the screen like a flowing stream. After a month in the wasteland, the chat environment improved considerably as some who couldn't adapt to the environment or who had lost their survival skills due to overindulgence died.

Few people continued to complain in the world chat; most expressed dissatisfaction with their current situation, and no one had any suicidal thoughts.

After observing for half an hour, Su Mo gradually got a general idea of the current human faction in the wasteland.

Currently, all of humanity is divided into three major camps.

The first category, of course, consists of humans like Su Mo who choose to go to the New Continent. These people are unwilling to stay in one place and firmly believe that only by following the "version" can they get food and survive. Staying in one place is tantamount to courting death.

In terms of specific actions, these people are building ships, buying materials, and many are even discussing meeting at sea to form a "chained alliance" like in the Three Kingdoms period, banding together to prevent attacks from foreign tribes.

The second type is the opposite of the first type, and is the standard "die-hard defender". These people also have a characteristic: the places where they previously placed their refuges had unique geographical advantages, often being mountains three to five thousand meters high and water levels less than one thousand meters high.

Moreover, compared to the first type of people, this type of people had accumulated a lot of resource advantages due to the terrain, and with three consecutive Polly of compound interest, they have developed to a certain scale.

For them, the New Continent something they were naturally even less willing to leave until they learned just how "tempting" it was.

As for the third type of person, they are always wavering, also known as "fence-sitters"! These people want to reap the benefits of the New Continent, but they don't want to take the risks of migrating across the ocean like animals.

At this moment, he wavered, sometimes determined to go to the New Continent and no one could stop him, and other times thinking that it was too dangerous outside and only a fool would try to cross tens of thousands of kilometers on a raft.

Su Mo could fully understand the actions of the three distinct groups of people, and could also glean insights into the future trends of the wasteland.

But before analyzing these issues in detail and checking if there were any benefits to be gained, Su Mo's eyes lit up.

"If someone wants to leave but can't take the basic materials with them, they'll engage in large-scale promotions to exchange them for other items."

"The die-hard faction is also taking this opportunity to dump basic materials in exchange for grain from others. With so many people selling, it seems that the price of basic materials will not only not rise in the short term, but will actually drop."

"Tomorrow noon, or the afternoon, will be the best time to make the acquisition!"
