Chapter 25, New Technology, G9 Gun Family
33 points of grace, this is the largest amount Gu Hang has received so far.
He planned to keep three points to train three more companies.
As for the other thirty points, he thought about where he could spend them.
He first opened the [Hero] interface. His own personal information panel still showed a message saying that he was unable to upgrade due to insufficient experience.
The way to gain experience is through war. Gu Hang doesn't know if there are other ways to gain experience, such as handling government affairs. Gu Hang thinks it should be given, but he hasn't verified it and doesn't know for sure.
In short, the war that he had just won was not enough for him to reach the limit of upgrading.
Instead, he saw a new name here.
[New hero can be activated: Yan Fangxu, activation requires 10 points of grace]
Um?
Now Gu Hang was a little confused.
Should I activate Yan Fangxu into a hero? After becoming a hero, you can accumulate experience, upgrade points, and gain talents... That guy doesn't seem to have any psychic talents, so I guess he will just be a warrior template after being activated.
Moreover, if we really put in the effort to train him, the Yelisia starship will fly away in two years, and the naval captain Yan Fangxu will probably go with it. By then, all the investment in him will be wasted.
Gu Hang would not distrust him just because he was in the navy, but investing in his training was another matter.
Putting it aside for now, Gu Hang clicked on the [Technology] panel again.
He tried it and invested 10 points of grace first.
[Invest 10 points of grace, and the probability of lighting up new basic technology is 70%. Do you confirm the investment? ]
No no no no no!
Gu Hang was a little surprised.
Is this probability still going to drop?
Previously, he exchanged 10 points of grace for a basic-level technology. He thought that he could get two black box machines with only 10 points each time he exchanged, but now he said that the probability would drop?
The probability of 70% is not low, but Gu Hang is worried that it will continue to fall!
"Every time we successfully light up the technology, will the success rate of the next lighting decrease?"
Gu Hang made some guesses about the system's technological function panel.
A heavy blow.
I thought that after opening such a big cheat, I could easily become invincible later, after all, technology is the primary productive force. Even if the imperial tax is really tight later, once I sell the black box manufacturing machine, the Imperial Chamber of Commerce, the Imperial Mechanical Church and the like will come to give me money eagerly? I don't have to worry about paying taxes at all.
As a result, the problem of reduced probability dealt him a heavy blow.
"I still have to behave myself." Gu Hang thought helplessly.
Fortunately, he really didn't regard selling technology as his only lifeline. If the tax problem can be solved normally, then solve it normally. These black boxes, including the black boxes accumulated by Dianping Technology in the future, are the capital for him to continue to grow bigger and stronger in the future.
As for the position of governor, he did not intend to work for a few years and then find a way to be transferred after overcoming difficulties.
The position of planetary governor is very special. For example, the governor of Wrathful Owl is not valued by others; but if it is a planet with top productivity and military capabilities, the governor's say is too much. Pedes, the star district leader of the Pegasus star district, can hold his current position because his brother is the governor of the star district capital planet, Wing. The population of tens of billions and the huge and stable productivity are his most solid backing.
Technology is the primary driving force for development. Gu Hang would never sell the black box manufacturing machine unless it was absolutely necessary.
At present, the success rate of the [Technology] function has decreased, but it doesn't matter, the remaining 70% is still a good probability. He still has more than 30 points of gifts in his hand, so he can successfully exchange one of them.
[Invest 10 points of grace, and the probability of lighting up new basic technology is 70%. Do you confirm the investment? ]
He took a breath and this time he nodded yes.
[Basic Technology: G9 Gun Family]
[The Imperial Mechanicus has developed a new generation of kinetic rifles in response to orders from the Astra Militarum. Under the premise that the overall cost is lower than that of the previous generation of rifles, it continues to promote lightweight and modularization. Through different accessories and simple modifications, it can form machine guns, automatic rifles, precision rifles, short submachine guns and other firearms with different functions, and further adapt to the alloy bayonet. ]
A smile appeared on Gu Hang's lips, and he couldn't help but laugh more and more happily.
Baby!
I don't know about other places, but at least in the Pegasus sector, whether it is the main force of the Imperial Guard Astra Militarum or the main force of the Marine Corps, the firearms they use are still mainly the G7, also known as the 'Assault' rifle.
Before, Gu Hang did remember hearing news about the gradual replacement of the G8 rifle, but at least until now, the scale of the replacement was not large and the production capacity was not enough.
And now, he has directly obtained the more advanced G9 model!
Another powerful weapon.
If Gu Hang could integrate the entire planet, the production of the G9 rifle alone would bring in a large number of orders. The Star Army, Navy, and even the local defense forces of each planet would not need to switch to the G8, but could just go straight to the 9 and be done with it.
If we take all these orders, it would be enough to pay the imperial taxes.
Of course, this is just a thought. Firstly, it is very difficult to reveal such a large production capacity; secondly, if it really makes such a big move, the source of the technology cannot be explained.
Unlike alloy plastic steel, which is a truly basic and widespread material production process, the G9 gun family is still very rare. If you make too much noise, you won't have to worry about anything else, but will the oil men from the Mechanicus come knocking on your door?
And if it's really hard to explain where this thing came from... the Inquisition might even come to your door. Suddenly gaining knowledge of an unknown source is a manifestation of Chaos corruption.
Of course, Gu Hang would not give up because of fear.
It still needs to be used.
At least, equipping one's own troops on a small scale is not a problem.
I was thinking about making use of the weapons and equipment seized from those mercenaries before, but now it seems there is no need.
Gu Hang, who was very interested, clicked on the [Technology] interface again.
[Invest 10 points of grace, and the probability of lighting up new basic technology is 40%. Do you confirm the investment? ]
Sure enough, it dropped again.
If a technology is successfully lit up once, the success rate will drop by 30%. If it happens twice, won’t it drop to zero?
This is outrageous! Who would be willing to put money into it?
Gu Hang cursed.
Then I rushed to ten o'clock.
What should I do? The things given by this technology system are too good.
【Lighting failed.】
Gu Hang's face fell, blood rushed to his head, and he smashed the remaining ten points in.
Yan Fangxu should move back a little, drawing cards is more important.
【Lighting failed.】
No, there is a 40% probability that both clicks will fail. What does that mean?
Actually, Gu Hang doesn't like this kind of probability-based draw, and hates failure. But now he can only draw the 10-point gift level, and the next level requires 100-point gifts.
From this perspective, in fact, the prize pool of each level in the [Technology] panel is limited. If you draw too much, the probability will continue to decrease. Then you can either upgrade the level and draw better ones, or pay a higher price to fight for a lower probability.
Under this concept, there may be a hidden mechanism: when the probability is high at the beginning, you can get good goods, otherwise you will lose a lot when the good goods fall to a low probability.
