Xiao He: "I have obtained ' Simple Hoe '*1."
Base Prosperity: 100,000/100,000.
Song Xiaozhu didn't hesitate any longer; even knowing she was in a spider web, she had no choice but to keep going.
Stopping now would come at too high a price.
Song Xiaozhu clicked on the recipe in the " Tree of Technology " and selected to synthesize it.
A short while later, Xiao He said, "Synthesis successful, we have obtained the ' Tree of Technology '."
"Comment: Technology changes the world."
"Effect: Significantly boosts the technology level of the 'base' upon placement, and increases the effectiveness of technology-based synthesized items by 200%."
Song Xiaozhu was startled; the effects of using this " Tree of Technology " were truly astounding.
The base now contains many technologically advanced composites, from light shields to anti-aircraft guns to unmanned patrol aircraft and armored vehicles... all of which are technologically advanced.
A 200% increase in effectiveness—doesn't that mean one anti-aircraft gun is equivalent to two?
Originally, two anti-aircraft guns were lost, but now, by placing a " Tree of Technology," it's 3*2, equivalent to six!
Fan Cang's mechanical sword is 60% damaged. Previously, each anti-aircraft gun could deal 6% damage, but now it's doubled to 12%.
These three anti-aircraft guns dealt a full 36% damage.
Fan Cang's mechanical sword was instantly in grave danger.
While placing the " Tree of Technology," Song Xiaozhu called out to Liu Xuangang, "Chariot, stop!"
Anti-aircraft guns can't distinguish between friend and foe, and she was afraid of hurting them.
On the base's thumbnail, the tank stopped very quickly, and Fan Cang noticed it. Just as he was about to attack the tank, the anti-aircraft gun finished loading, and three shells shot towards him like meteors.
The mechanical sword in Fan Cang's hand instantly enlarged, becoming like a towering iron wall blocking the way and withstanding the artillery fire.
Three cannonballs left two more cracks on the mechanical sword.
Mei Qing saw it clearly; her pupils contracted sharply, and she said to Fan Cang through her personal terminal, "Try to kill them all. The tech cannon at No. 199 has been upgraded again!"
Fan Cang: "Hmm."
Compared to Mei Qing's astonishment, Fan Cang was not surprised.
As fellow God-Favored, they were all too aware of the power of the " Heart of the Creator," and once fed with fragments, its power would rapidly increase.
Song Xiaozhu has more than twenty fragments in her possession; she must have a backup plan.
Fan Cang spotted an opening in the Quantum Light Shield. He flashed forward like a beam of light, followed by a horizontal slash of his sword. The jet-black blade of light landed on the snow-white cannon, melting the anti-aircraft gun like a highly corrosive agent dripping onto a vegetable leaf.
Song Xiaozhu's heart was in her throat. As long as she could leave behind just one anti-aircraft gun, just one, she could crush Fan Cang after the next reload.
Fan Cang's mechanical sword was damaged by the shelling just now, with a damage rate of up to 96%!
He can't withstand the next shelling!
The sword beam severed two anti-aircraft guns and was about to strike the third... The Quantum Light Shield's healing speed was insufficient to stop this sword beam.
In a flash, the chariots positioned at the edge of the light shield simultaneously turned their cannons and fired at Fan Cang's back.
The tanks' shells were no match for the anti-aircraft guns, but the combined power of two hundred tanks attacking simultaneously was not to be underestimated. At this moment, Fan Cang was focused all his attention on the anti-aircraft guns, determined to destroy the last one, which was impossible to defend against with a mechanical sword.
The sword's edge sliced towards the anti-aircraft gun.
The tanks bombarded the airborne Fan Cang.
All of this happened in an instant. Song Xiaozhu didn't have time to give orders to the tank squad. It was Liu Xuangang who made the quick decision and responded on the spot.
The last three anti-aircraft guns crashed down.
Two hundred tanks rained down on Fan Cang's back.
A burst of dazzling light erupted, then instantly fell like fireworks.
Everyone stared wide-eyed at the figure in mid-air.
It was just a human being, appearing from a distance like a speck of dust in the air, a tiny speck of dirt.
Yet this very person possesses terrifying power capable of destroying the world.
Is he dead?
Was he killed by the tank's cannon fire?
Song Xiaozhu shouted sharply, "Retreat!"
Liu Xuangang had just heard her command when the five hundred Hunter in the two hundred chariots seemed frozen in place, unable to even move their eyelashes.
A second feels like a lifetime.
It felt so long, as if I had witnessed the birth and destruction of the universe.
Two hundred chariots formed a neat square formation to concentrate their firepower on Fan Cang. This square formation was like a crisp pastry on a table; when the long sword fell, it shattered into pieces.
Fan Cang did not die.
He withstood the wrath of two hundred tanks and destroyed the tank squad with his mechanical sword, which was 96% damaged.
Song Xiaozhu saw the numbers silently climbing on the Base Manager: "Casualties: 10...20...50...100...150...200..."
The cold, hard numbers were as glaring as blood spilling from the screen.
Song Xiaozhu asked in a hoarse voice, " Xiao He, how much longer?" The repairs would take time, and even after she increased her speed with Quantum Coin, it would still take time.
In the current situation, even three seconds is enough to overturn everything.
Xiao He: "Repair complete, Synthesizer currently at level five."
Song Xiaozhu felt a flash before her eyes, and the light screen on the Workbench was simplified, the complex recipe bar condensed into one thing—All Things.
What's this?
What can this do?
Song Xiaozhu quickly clicked on it and saw that there were only two new formulas: Advanced Chip and Radiance of Humanity.
Formula Name: Advanced Chip.
Recipe Level: 5.
Required Raw Material: 10 All-Purpose Toolbox + 10 Super Energy Stone.
Success rate: 99%.
Recipe Name: The Radiance of Humanity.
Recipe Level: 5
Required Raw Material: 1 million Leadership Value.
Success rate: 100%.
Song Xiaozhu wasted no time and immediately synthesized a " Radiance of Humanity." She didn't know what it was, but she hoped it could turn the tide of the battle.
The tank squad was completely wiped out, and the village was rendered powerless.
