Chapter 191 Shotgun
Summon 100 Dark Knights and Skeleton Knights first to see the effect!
Li Ziyu waved his hand and gave a heroic order, thanking the Cancer Alliance for sending the soul energy, otherwise he really couldn't summon the Black Warrior and Skeleton Knight, 100 of them, but that's 2.5 million units of soul energy.
I stood up, went to the window, and looked towards the Mountains of the Dead. The soul base station had not been built yet, and the construction was a bit slow.
After rubbing his eyebrows to relax his eye muscles, Li Ziyu came back, opened the system and started studying the gun.
In the weapons research room, there is a separate technology tree for firearms. There are three most basic types of firearms, and the system provides pictures.
The first type is somewhat similar to a three-barreled gun. The barrel is made of polished bones and is very long. There is a wooden buttstock at the back. It has a simple structure and does not look very powerful. It feels not as powerful as the guns used by the previous werewolf spearmen.
The second type is a biochemical pistol, which has granulation tissue, muscle, and blood vessel-like tissue on it. It is full of flesh-punk style and looks weird.
The last type seems much more normal. It is a magical weapon, a spear. The barrel is connected by bones and inlaid with gems. There is a ball at the back, just like a horizontal magic wand.
What can I say about this basic firearm? It's really... ugly. The shapes are getting worse and worse. There is absolutely no aesthetic appeal at all. It's just exploded.
If you want to develop firearms, you have to open three technology trees. The three-eyed gun is the mechanical technology tree, the biochemical pistol is the biochemical technology tree, and the magic spear is the psychic technology tree.
Li Ziyu went to the psychic research laboratory and looked around, only to find that the psychic technology tree was the most orthodox undead technology. The undead still tended to favor magic, and had even developed something like a psychic core. The materials needed for the research and development of technology were basically magic materials, so it was obvious that it was very expensive.
The mechanical technology tree is the most "cost-effective". It is similar to the machinery in the previous life, but it is more punk-style and requires mostly various mineral resources. Although it saves money, the mechanical technology tree has more branches than the other two technology trees. In the system, it is displayed that the mechanical technology tree is flourishing.
The biochemical technology tree is rather strange, and the technology inside looks very creepy. Li Ziyu flipped through it and found that the materials needed for the research and development of technology were almost all things he had never seen before, and they were very difficult to obtain.
All three technology trees look pretty good, and I really want them all. But if I try to get all of them, I won’t have enough resources. I can only climb one technology tree. Oh... it’s so difficult!
Li Ziyu was about to suffer from a fear of making choices and was scratching his head in confusion.
At times like this, you have to rely on friends to help you out. Li Ziyu sent a message to Zhang Peng, telling him about his concerns and wanting to hear his opinion on which technology tree is best to choose.
【Private Chat】
Conscientious Businessman: So, there are three technologies, and you don’t know which one to choose?
Don’t want to get a driver’s license: That’s right.
Conscientious businessman: Does that mean you can’t use all three technologies at the same time?
Don’t want to take a driver’s license test: emmm…climbing just one type requires a lot of resources, and I can’t handle climbing all three types at the same time.
Conscientious businessman: What if they are staggered?
Don’t want to take a driver’s license test: What does it mean?
Conscientious businessman: Pick a simple one first, study it, and then accumulate other resources, one by one. It’s not like you can only climb one technology tree. What are you hesitating about?
Don’t want to get a driver’s license: Damn…you do make sense.
Li Ziyu slapped his head. His thinking was rigid. No one said that he had to develop three technology trees at the same time. He could develop machinery first and collect psychic resources. When he had enough resources, he could develop the psychic technology tree. As for the biochemical technology tree, he could leave it to the end.
My brain is really not flexible. If Zhang Peng hadn't reminded me, I would have been stuck.
Li Ziyu figured it out, thanked Zhang Peng, closed the chat, and started studying the mechanical technology tree.
As a time traveler, your understanding of machinery far exceeds that of magic and mechanical technology. The most important thing is the foundation. A slight mistake can lead to a huge mistake. If the foundation is not laid well, you will go further and further astray.
The system's explanation of the mechanical technology tree is that the skeleton undead have forged their own path, making metal into various tools and integrating them with their bodies, forming a technology unique to the skeleton undead.
The first item in the mechanical technology tree: smelting.
There’s nothing wrong with it, my friend, this technology is great, Li Ziyu directly clicked to unlock.
[Smelting technology unlocked, congratulations on obtaining a new building, the smelting workshop. ]
【Smelting workshop】
[Introduction: Are you still half asleep? You don't know what a smelting workshop is? Copper, iron, steel, and other metals all come from here. You don't think you can make equipment with just ore, do you?]
[Construction Requirements: Skeletons*100 units, Stone*100 units, Copper Ore*100 units, Iron Ore*100 units]
【Occupied area: 50 units】
What's there to think about? Just build it.
The smelting workshop entered the construction phase, and Li Ziyu continued to study technology. Above the smelting technology were some basic materials, such as mixed material gears and mixed material pipes. These basic materials were what was needed for primary firearms. Of course, gunpowder also needed to be studied.
Li Ziyu unlocked the gunpowder easily. He actually had all the necessary materials in the warehouse. They were probably the spoils captured after the battle with the jackals. They had been kept in the warehouse and had been getting moldy. This time he finally used them.
The smelting workshop was built very quickly, and then various metals were smelted. Li Ziyu did not need to take care of these. As long as there was enough ore, mass production could be carried out. Li Ziyu now had a lot of ore. Over in the Ghost Mountains, the mining of various resources had never stopped, so that a large amount of basic materials were piled up in the warehouse.
