Chapter 299 Mechanical Legion Upgrade (4 updates)
In this giant ax meeting, nothing particularly valuable was discussed.
It was just that Jiang Chen had new abilities and informed the tribe.
As for the fact that this ability essentially belongs to Jarvis, not Jiang Chen, it doesn't matter.
The ability that Jarvis masters is Jiang Chen's.
After seeking Jarvis's opinion, Jiang Chen did not create a body for Jarvis.
But let him still maintain a pure 'intelligent life' form.
Unlike ordinary intelligent life, Jarvis does not even need to rely on a carrier such as an optical brain or an intelligent brain to exist.
He itself is a life form that belongs to an 'information state' and does not need to have any entity.
However, in this form, Jarvis himself has no fighting power.
Apart from virtual invasion, Jarvis cannot cause any damage to the enemy.
And he can't leave Jiang Chen's inner universe too far.
The moment he completed his 'evolution', Jarvis was deeply bound to the universe within Jiang Chen's body.
The 'information dimension' that provides him with computing power is in Jiang Chen's inner universe.
Once the connection with the 'information dimension' is disconnected, Jarvis's computing power will drop directly to zero and he will crash.
Of course, as long as he does not leave Jiang Chen too far, through Jiang Chen, Jarvis can still maintain deep contact with the 'information dimension' in the universe within his body. In this case, Jarvis's computing power can be said to be 'infinite' .
This is also one of the powerful foundations of its virtual technology.
Intrusion and anti-intrusion between intelligences, in addition to the level of technical level, the competition is whether the computing power is strong or not.
The party with strong computing power, even if it is technically weaker, can still suppress its opponent by virtue of its advantage in computing power.
However, although the 'information dimension' can theoretically provide Jarvis with unlimited computing power, in fact, the 'information dimension' exists based on Jiang Chen's internal universe, and its size and scale , still depends on the upper limit of the universe in Jiang Chen's body.
The current 'information dimension' can provide Jarvis with computing power that is probably equivalent to more than ten times that of the 'galaxy-level supercomputing center' in the place of origin.
Facing the master of the mechanical universe, he has a considerable advantage, but it has not reached the level of crushing him.
However, Jiang Chen estimates that even if the universe in his body expands to the limit and the 'information dimension' grows, the increase in computing power brought to Jarvis will not be enough to crush the mechanical universe. Lord, even to the point of being the father-god of the mechanical race.
If you want to control and enslave the mechanical race through virtual invasion, you still have to find a way to break through to the seventh level.
The top management of the human race trusted Jiang Chen very much and did not inquire how Jiang Chen did it, nor did they even ask for verification.
Jiang Chen said that he could do it, and presented several immortal gods of the mechanical race who had been brainwashed and controlled by Jarvis as evidence, and the higher-ups of the human race believed him.
This sense of trust also puts Jiang Chen under a lot of pressure.
Jiang Chen left all matters such as the original star, the place of origin, the universe technology company, etc. to his mechanical family members to take care of them.
As for Jarvis, of course he is also a member of the Mechanical Familia, and he is the most special one among them.
Although Jarvis is not a 'mechanical apostle', he is the one who has followed Jiang Chen for the longest time. Before he evolved into an intelligent life, he had a position that convinced all the mechanical apostles.
After evolution, he naturally became the being with the highest say among the mechanical family members, except for Jiang Chen himself.
However, Jarvis does not care about matters beyond his authority. He only cooperates with managers such as No. 1 to take care of the place of origin, Universe Technology Company, and Jiang Chen’s body for Jiang Chen. universe.
——Jiang Chen’s internal universe, although still very small, already has signs of the birth of life.
Jiang Chen has tentatively transferred a group of mechanical clans and humans into his own inner universe to survive, and is ready to see if there will be any new changes in the inner universe after the reproduction of life.
Jiang Chen left all matters in this area to Jarvis and other managers.
Jiang Chen also left it to twelve mechanical commanders to take charge of the battle for treasures on the primitive star and the battles between ethnic groups in the primitive universe.
Jiang Chen himself went into seclusion in the Supreme Sanctuary. With the newly acquired knowledge and technology, he began to study new design drawings to enhance the combat power of the mechanical legion.
The focus is on the upgrade or redesign of various mechanical units.
But occasionally, Jiang Chen would allocate part of his energy to consider the design ideas for new mechanical commanders.
The configuration of the twelve mechanical commanders is very complete, but it is not 'perfect'.
There are too many melee combats, too few leaders with long-range output and strong control capabilities, and there are also few "functional assists".
However, Jiang Chen has very high requirements for mechanical commanders.
The ability to be independent is a must.
On this basis, you also need to have a strong enough ‘characteristic’ in a certain aspect.
Furthermore, it is necessary to have an excellent ‘fit’ with other mechanical leaders to achieve the effect of one plus one being greater than two.
Jiang Chen does have a lot of ideas for new mechanical commanders.
But it is possible...
None of them.
Imagination is one thing, whether it can be realized is the most important thing.
Whimsical ideas have no value. They are meaningful only if they are turned into practical solutions.
Most of the time, Jiang Chen would focus on improving the overall mechanical army.
But occasionally when inspiration comes, I will allocate a little energy to conceive the design of the mechanical apostle.
Although most of the inspirations were ultimately abandoned by Jiang Chen because they could not be realized, or they found out after they were realized that they were different from what he expected.
However, there are still new mechanical leadership design ideas that have officially entered the stage of perfection.
Once it is completely perfected and becomes a design approved by the system, Jiang Chen will manufacture it and transform it into a mechanical apostle.
However, the amount of this project is not small.
As his strength increases, Jiang Chen's requirements for mechanical leadership are also increasing.
Naturally, it is more difficult to design and perfect.
On the contrary, in the mechanical army, the speed of improvement of ordinary combat units and 'strategic special units' has been greatly accelerated.
The [Warp Arbiter] was the first to complete the upgrade. Except for the core ability 'Warp Summon', which is still retained by Jiang Chen, the three abilities of static stance, plasma shield, and energy pulse have all been retained by Jiang Chen. give up.
However, Jiang Chen added a super long-distance teleportation ability to the [Warp Arbiter].
As long as the coordinates are known, you can directly teleport yourself there, and then activate the 'jump summon' to summon the mechanical army there. The upgraded [Jump Arbiter] has become a pure ultra-long-distance, large-scale transmission method. Its transmission level is enough to break through the space blockade at the level of the Lord of the Universe, even if the Lord of the Universe uses the ability to 'control time and space' If the ability blocks one side of time and space, it can be forcibly torn open by the [Warp Arbiter] for teleportation.
Only the strongest person in the universe takes action, or has a top-notch domain treasure to block the space, in order to block the transmission of the [Warp Arbiter].
At this level, the emphasis on ability lies in 'fine', not 'many'.
An ability with a high enough level is much more useful than a bunch of low-level abilities.
Although the former has a single function, it can play a great role as long as it is used.
The latter, no matter how many in number or type, once you encounter a strong person, none of them can be used, and all of them will be ineffective, which is completely meaningless.
Following this, the basic units of fanatics, dwarf mages, etc. also completed upgrades.
In fact, some of them are not strictly upgrades, but replacements.
For example, for the dwarf mage, Jiang Chen changed the original full-system energy cannon into a single space-system attack, pursuing the ultimate physical attack power.
The seventh-level weapon [Phase Fragmentation Cannon] has a powerful attack power that can severely damage ordinary universe overlords with one blow.
A group of dwarf mages jointly fired a salvo, and the Lord of the Universe had to avoid their sharp edges.
However, although the design, weapons, and even the shape have changed drastically, Jiang Chen is too lazy to change the name and still calls him the 'dwarf mage'.
In addition to regular upgrades and replacements, there are also some combat units that have been completely abandoned by Jiang Chen, such as the 'Hellfire' troops.
It is also a long-range attack. Compared with the Hellfire troops and the Dwarf Mage troops, the price/performance ratio is too low.
The upper limit of physical projectiles is actually very high, but as a large-scale army configuration, the cost is also scary.
It's okay at level six, the material used in the bullets won't be too special.
At the seventh level, if you want to still maintain a powerful enough lethality at the same level, bullets must use extremely precious materials. Compared with energy that can exert powerful lethality with sufficient energy supply, For weapons, the cost is dozens of times higher.
Due to cost considerations, Jiang Chen directly abandoned the ‘Hellfire’ unit.
Of course the old Hellfire troops will not be destroyed and refurbished.
But it will no longer be produced.
In the future, the Hellfire troops will gradually be replaced by the Dwarf Mage troops.
The upgrade of the mechanical legion took Jiang Chen nearly a thousand years to complete.
However, due to cost factors, Jiang Chen only spent more than a hundred treasure points to build a mechanical army with a scale of over one hundred thousand.
All members are at the seventh level, and all have high-level combat capabilities at the seventh level.
A very few 'special units', such as the upgraded [Warp Arbiter], have crossed the eighth level threshold.
Although it is limited by the single ability of combat units, in one-on-one situations, they will definitely not be able to defeat practitioners of the same level.
But this numerical advantage is enough to give this mechanical army an extremely terrifying combat effectiveness.
Not to mention, Jiang Chen's mechanical affinity can greatly increase the combat power of this mechanical army.
The Lord of the Abyss, who had previously fallen from the mechanical race, was the best in the universe at using the mechanical legion to fight.
Of course, his mechanical legion had been completely wiped out by the Chaos City Lord in the previous battle on the original star No. 08541.
Jiang Chen's mechanical army, without Jiang Chen's mechanical affinity, would certainly not be as good as the mechanical army of the Lord of the Abyss.
There are too many of the latter, reaching a scale of '100 million', which poses a considerable threat to even the fifth-order Lord of the Universe.
In other words, the Chaos City Lord who owns the 'Thousand Treasure River' is extremely restrained by the strong men of the 'Legion Style'.
If the Lord of Peng Gong were to deal with the Lord of Qianyuan, it would definitely not be so easy to suppress the opponent.
But once the mechanical affinity is included, even in its heyday, the mechanical army of the Lord of Qianyuan will be destroyed in a short time when it encounters Jiang Chen's mechanical army.
Just by relying on this mechanical legion, as long as he does not encounter a strong man like the Chaos City Lord who is extremely restrained in the 'Legion Style' system, Jiang Chen, an ordinary fifth-level universe lord, can rely on this mechanical legion. The Legion suppressed.
Of course, it is just suppression.
It is still difficult to kill the fifth-level Lord of the Universe.
"The new mechanical legion, plus the old mechanical legion, are not qualified to deal with the peak ethnic groups. But the ordinary small ethnic groups can no longer stop me."
Jiang Chen glanced at the system panel, and thought in his mind A thought popped up in my mind: "Would you like to Find a group to start with? Killing a group with dozens of cosmic lords will almost be able to collect the original energy needed for the expansion of the universe. Or should we be more steady and accumulate a lot of expertise points? "
Jiang Chen hesitated.
The time Jiang Chen planned for himself was to break through to the seventh level within more than ten thousand years.
Then before the dust of Duandonghe inheritance settles, the seventh-level knowledge and technology will be completely digested, thereby improving Jarvis's virtual technology to try to control the machine race.
Only over a thousand years have passed, and there is still plenty of time.
With enough combat power to support it, it does not take too long to destroy a small ethnic group.
The process of devouring resources will not be too long.
On the contrary, if something unexpected happens during the genocide operation, it may delay Jiang Chen for a longer time.
“Forget it, be safe and save a batch of expertise points first. At least open the awakening progress of the third exclusive expertise.”
A thought flashed through Jiang Chen's mind.
Since the second exclusive specialty was generated, the ‘awakening progress’ of the third exclusive specialty has not been turned on.
On the system panel, there is this prompt: [Please choose to invest 10 million to 100 million expertise points to determine the basic strength of the exclusive expertise. After the expertise points are invested, the awakening progress of the expertise will be officially started. 】
You must first invest expertise points ranging from 10 million to 100 million before you can officially start the awakening of the third exclusive expertise.
According to the specific instructions, if a minimum of 10 million expertise points are invested, the intensity of the third exclusive expertise will be similar to that of the second exclusive expertise, slightly stronger, but not as substantial. gap.
If the maximum 100 million expertise points are invested, when the third exclusive expertise is fully awakened, its intensity will be much stronger than the second exclusive expertise.
Of course, this number is only the investment required to 'activate the awakening progress'. After it is activated, you still need to slowly accumulate the awakening progress, or invest a large amount of expertise points, in order to officially awaken the third exclusive expertise. .
Of course Jiang Chen chose the highest ‘100 million expertise points’ to directly maximize the intensity of the third exclusive expertise.
Even if the knowledge and skills mastered have improved a lot, it will still take a long time to accumulate 100 million expertise points.
