Chapter 38 The choice of establishing a base
[Material science has been upgraded to Lv. 21, and the level has been improved. 】
【The current level is: first level and third level. 】
【You get all attributes +10, and you get 10 free attribute points. 】
【You gain 99 expertise points. 】
"I have finally upgraded. After reaching the planet level, although the efficiency of mastering new knowledge is much higher, the upgrade speed is actually slower..."
Looking at the system prompts that popped up in front of him, Jiang Chen casually Add free attribute points to the 'Spirit' attribute, and then open the attribute panel.

After upgrading, the original traditional technology The disciplines have been merged into the 'Natural Science and Technology' entry, but by expanding the detailed interface, you can still see the upgrade progress of each subdivision.
After the attributes were upgraded again, Jiang Chen's force and telekinesis also made breakthroughs. However, compared to the increase in attributes, after reaching the first level, the number of expertise points obtained tripled with each upgrade. Reaching 99 points, this improvement is even more impressive.
After just two upgrades, Jiang Chen's expertise points on his panel had accumulated to 242, which was enough to exchange for one or two quite powerful abilities.
"I have accumulated it for several months, and I don’t know if my current strength is enough..."
Jiang Chen exited the system and said: "Jarvis, how many mechas belong to us now? Troops?”
“On the surface, there are a total of one hundred and forty [Boxer] mechas that belong to us, with a total of ten teams, and they can be passed at any time. I can change the team configuration by changing equipment. In addition, there are 12 [SCVs] that can be controlled by me immediately if they need to enter an emergency state. This will expose the fact that you, the master, have left a backdoor in the mecha."
Jarvis quickly reported a string of data.
Nine months have passed since the first [Boxer] production line was successfully established, and the second production line has been put into use for nearly five months.
With the full supply from various countries, as well as the two major martial arts schools and the HR Alliance, there was no need to worry about the production of raw materials. We started working at full capacity and produced more than 1,400 [Boxer] mechas.
Ninety percent of them were sold to major forces and turned into materials, funds, and other treasures in Jiang Chen’s hands. The remaining one-tenth was kept by Jiang Chen himself and became his own own armed forces.
As for the twelve extra [SCVs], they are Jiang Chen's preparations for building a new base.
"Where are the resource reserves?" Jiang Chen asked again: "How was the money allocated to you last time spent?"
"Most of it has been spent, but for the orders placed through the HR Alliance, there are still two batches of materials that have not been delivered. There are now enough spare parts in the warehouse to manufacture hundreds of [Boxers] and [SCV], as well as parts worth more than one trillion Huaxia Coin’s various material reserves are mainly metal materials, concrete, energy, fuel, weapons and ammunition, electronic equipment, etc. ”
Jarvis reported a series of data, and then added: "According to the plan No. 12 given by your master, these resources are barely enough to build a small-scale industrial base in the wilderness. But how to use these resources Transportation to the destination is a big problem. "Yes, transportation..." Jiang Chen sighed, feeling very troubled by this problem.
Just to build a base, even a very small base, involves a huge number of building materials.
It is very troublesome to carry so much material across a long distance to reach the target location in Jiang Chen's plan, and to be prepared for monster attacks.
All kinds of materials with a total weight of over one million tons, no matter which transportation method is used, can never be delivered in one trip.
If you choose to build a base outside Eurasia, the pressure on transportation will be even greater.
Even if it absorbs technology from cosmic civilizations, it is limited by the technological level of the earth itself and cannot create anything that exceeds the technological level of the earth.
Taking transport aircraft as an example, the transport aircraft with the strongest carrying capacity on earth can only carry more than a hundred tons of cargo at most, excluding the weight of the aircraft itself and the fuel.
Millions of tons?
It would take ten thousand flights to complete the shipment!
Even if Jiang Chen uses the space ring to transport it, he would still have to fly hundreds of round trips.
Unless there are more and larger space rings, the number of transportation times can be reduced to a low enough level.
“If the number of air transports can be reduced to less than ten times, I think target location No. 1 is the most appropriate choice.” Jarvis put forward his own suggestion: “If the number of air transports exceeds ten times, , based on existing data, the possibility of attracting king-level monsters will increase. 87.5%, the risk is too high. Even if the master successfully kills the opponent, if some of the goods are destroyed, the master's plan will fail."
Jarvis obtained a large amount of information on the Internet and analyzed it. When it comes to data, Jiang Chen still trusts Jarvis's judgment.
The No. 1 target location is located in South America. It is the territory of the country that liked to dance samba and play football before the Great Nirvana. It has extremely rich mineral resources, both in terms of type and reserve, ranking among the top in the world.
Now it is completely occupied by monsters, and there is no trace of humans. If Jiang Chen can occupy it and open up a base, he will not need to worry about resources before entering the universe.
But Asia and South America are so far apart that we can only fly there. It's okay to fly once or twice, but if you fly more often, you will be easily noticed by high-level flying monsters, so the risk is not small.
If the number of times of transporting resources cannot be reduced to a low enough number, then the only option is to find a suitable place on the Eurasian continent and send Jiang Chen’s hoarded resources there through the ground. .
As for shipping... the current ocean is completely the territory of monsters. Even Hong and Lei Shen will not easily set foot in it, and ordinary sea ships are even more impossible.
There are also two places in Asia that Jiang Chen is quite satisfied with. The grasslands in the north and the Golden Triangle in the south are both areas beyond the control of major forces and have considerable mineral resources.
But no matter which one, one or two things are missing, which makes people very uncomfortable.
"It would be great if I could get the space ring in Babata's hand." Jiang Chen muttered in his heart.
Although the space ring in Babata's hand is not comparable to the world ring, the internal space is very large. It can pack all the resources and mechanical legions that Jiang Chen has hoarded in one go. It is much stronger than Jiang Chen's standard-sized space ring.
However, Jiang Chen is not willing to ask Jiang Chen to find Babata.
"Forget it, let's ask Representative Jia Yi first if there is any way. I don't believe it. This is the only space ring that has been discovered on earth." Jiang Chen opened the communication bracelet, found Jia Yi's phone number, and dialed it.
