"It's out. If it's a new type of energy reactor, it can probably maintain this intensity for about five days," Clove replied.
"Then let's do the math. Two hundred fighter aircrafts would cost a million points for five days, and six million points a month." Shen Yi sighed.
A portion of energy would cost about five thousand points.
War indeed required money.
Although it wasn't a lot.
However, if it had to be paid with points, it wouldn't be a small amount.
They still had to properly develop the association's technology and industrial standards.
Shen Yi finally understood the difficulties of the Creation Association. Not only did they have to consider saving the world, but they also had to consider the development of the entire world, and how to earn points.
"Captain," Clove suddenly said, "they exchanged for laser cannon technology."
"Laser cannon?" Shen Yi was stunned.
"They probably saw the power and practicality of energy weapons from our fighter aircrafts and are preparing to research in this direction," Clove replied.
"But this is very difficult, right?" Shen Yi frowned.
Laser, in fact, meant laser.
After the electrons in an atom absorbed energy, they would jump from a low energy level to a high energy level, and then fall from a high energy level to a low energy level. The energy released would be released in the form of photons, which was laser light.
If this energy could be released in a concentrated manner …
It could create laser cannons with penetrative power.
It was considered one of the most basic energy weapons.
Even in this era, it was already used to a certain extent.
A fully formed laser cannon was commonly used in interstellar wars. Moreover, because its trajectory was at the speed of light, it had a very strong restraining effect against highly mobile exotic beasts.
However, no matter how basic it was, it was still a weapon that far surpassed this era.
"They researched and discussed for a long time. They believe that among all the weapons that are suitable for this war, only laser cannons can truly protect the city," Clove said. "Clean nuclear fusion energy can solve the energy problem, and laser cannons, coupled with an automatic aiming system, can accurately eliminate all the exotic beasts near the city."
"Laser defense towers?" Shen Yi already understood this idea.
Indeed, the advantage of energy weapons was the adjustment of power.
It was effective against high-tier exotic beasts, but it was also effective against low-tier exotic beasts. If they could really use the laser defense towers to surround the entire city, covering the sky, and solve the problem of energy supply, they would indeed be able to hold out against the beast swarm.
But here was the problem.
This kind of technology was not easy to produce.
Compared to a Gaussian weapon, the difficulty was more than one level higher.
"Clove, what do you think?" Shen Yi asked.
"Having a direction to work towards is better than not being able to see the future." Clove said, "Besides, even if it's other technologies, they might not be able to realize it. This is their own choice."
"…" After a moment of silence, Shen Yi finally nodded. "That's right, we've given them hope."
The Association's participation would buy them more time.
But even so, they couldn't directly resolve the Apocalypse.
In the end, how long it would take to find a solution and how many people would survive would depend on themselves.
Now, just like the construction of cities in the previous world, the people of this world had finally determined the direction to save themselves.
They had to develop weapons that could protect the city while fighting the war.
Next.
It was a race between life and death.
Shen Yi's gaze seemed to cross space and looked at the countless people who were cheering for the support of the Pan-Humanist Guardians.
The war was far from over.
And after this day.
The war became more and more intense day after day.
The war factories in every city were being built quickly.
The original shopping malls, office buildings, and other places were all transformed into factories. Not only did this include military factories, but it also covered the production of food, clothing, and other basic products.
Everyone, either joined the army, picked up weapons, and threw themselves into the frontline battle.
Or put themselves into the factories.
In addition to these two, a new profession was born.
— Resource Collection Team.
These people did not need to directly participate in the battle, but they had to clean up the scene after every battle.
They collected the shot nails, dismembered the exotic beasts, and transported the useful parts back to the city.
Exotic beasts were gradually becoming the most important resource for humans.
Their scales were harder than some metal products. Their meat could be eaten after special treatment. Their tendons were far tougher than rubber. The remaining parts could be made into fertilizer to grow vegetables and plants …
In addition to this.
There were more and more means of war.
The Gaussian weapons began to hide powerful toxins in the nails. Although they could not poison the exotic beasts to death, they could make them suffer and even be powerless for a period of time. It was easier to kill them on the battlefield.
Moreover, the drone army attached to the Gaussian weapons also began to enter the battlefield.
The high-energy battery technology gave the drones a powerful endurance. Although they were not fast and had a high damage rate, especially when they encountered the Gugas exotic beasts that controlled powerful lightning.
But no matter what, the use of these automatic units could reduce the sacrifice of soldiers.
However …
The number of exotic beasts was still increasing.
In the third month since Shen Yi arrived in this world.
It had reached the point where more than twenty thousand exotic beasts were born every day.
About twenty of them were Class Two exotic beasts.
Some cities would even be attacked by more than two Class Two exotic beasts at the same time.
In such a situation, they could only wait for the appearance of powerful Extraordinaires or the Association's support.
But even so …
They still had to resist the remaining thousands of Class One exotic beasts by themselves.
Because Shen Yi had already made it clear on behalf of the Association.
The Association would only support the people who were fighting.
In the beginning, there were a few cities that did not believe it. After the Association's support arrived, they asked their soldiers to retreat, hoping to save resources.
Until the Association's fighter jets withdrew without hesitation.
People finally realized that the Association was not just talking about it.
And in the fourth month …
The number of exotic beasts doubled again.
There were forty thousand of them every day!
The war could not be stopped at all.
It was ringing almost every second.
In the fifth month …
Even if Shen Yi increased the fighter jets to eight hundred, there were still hundreds of thousands of people sacrificing on the battlefield in thousands of cities around the world almost every day.
Because the number of exotic beasts was simply too great.
The entire land was filled with the flames of war.
But it was also at this time …
People realized …
The exotic beasts began to devour the corpses of their companions.
These corpses left behind by human battles seemed to be equally attractive to the exotic beasts. Their eyes were no longer on the cities. Instead, they dragged the corpses of their companions back to eat.
