Chapter 2098 - 2098 The plan begins (1)
2098 The plan begins (1)
Tang Zhen was unable to see through a person’s heart without using any means. Naturally, he didn’t know what the cultivator that he seemed to know was thinking.
However, the other party gave him a very uncomfortable feeling, which made him secretly vigilant. Perhaps someone had already set their eyes on him and was ready to take action.
This situation was not unexpected. After all, he had been in the limelight during this period of time, and almost everyone knew about him.
However, this was the result that Tang Zhen wanted. Regardless of whether it was to find companions or to carry out his own plan, he needed to have enough fame and support.
As for those who tried to have crooked ideas, if they really provoked Tang Zhen, they might soon regret it.
There was not a single person who had been able to take advantage of Tang Zhen in the past hundred years.
Moreover, Tang Zhen didn’t have the time to care about anything else. He had to obtain more Battle Points as soon as possible. Otherwise, he would definitely figure out the background of the other party.
After returning to the defense area, Tang Zhen gathered Sun Jun and the others and announced his plan.
When they heard that Tang Zhen was preparing to build a warship that believers could drive into the ocean to kill monsters, everyone immediately showed an interested expression.
Accustomed to relying on the city wall to pa.s.sively resist sea monsters, the believers had never thought that one day they could collectively march into the sea and kill their way into the territory of those monsters.
This kind of thing, just thinking about it made one’s blood boil with a kind of feeling, wishing to personally try it.
Although it seemed very dangerous, if the warship could really be as Tang Zhen said and was comparable to a mobile defense area on the sea, so what if they entered the deep sea?
As long as they had sharp enough weapons, there was no need to worry about logistics. The warships could stay on the beach for a long time.
The most important point was still the acquisition of battle merits.
Compared to pa.s.sively waiting for the sea monsters to attack, taking the initiative to search on the warship would undoubtedly give him more battle merits.
It could be said that as long as one entered the ocean, they did not have to worry about not being able to find the monsters. Instead, they had to worry about whether they could withstand the endless attacks of the sea monsters.
Although there had been cases of believers collectively entering the sea in the past, those believers were all experts. It was only because the battle achievements obtained in the defense area could not meet their expectations that they chose to take the risk of entering the sea.
These believers also had things like boats, or simply taming sea monsters. Although there were many ways, there had never been a warship.
This matter was quickly settled. In the following time, the entire defense area would be in service of this plan.
After enjoying the many benefits, those believers would not say anything. Moreover, when had Tang Zhen ever shortchanged them?
In terms of personnel arrangements, Sun Jun had to command the battle, so he could not partic.i.p.ate in this matter.
Therefore, Tang Zhen arranged for the dwarf, the horned helmet, and the others to a.s.sist him. Whoever they followed Tang Zhen, they would unconditionally execute his orders.
These few people alone were not enough to run the entire plan, so Tang Zhen asked Sun Jun to select a group of trustworthy a.s.sistants from the Veterans.
What Tang Zhen wanted to do was to be in charge of opening up a dock and collecting the materials needed to build the main body of the warship.
He was the only one in charge of this matter. Whether it was the terrain transformation or the transportation of the giant rocks from the bottom of the sea, none of these were things that ordinary believers could do.
After the meeting ended, everyone immediately got to work.
The first task that Tang Zhen had to complete was naturally to open up the dock for the battleship. He was prepared to open up a pa.s.sage on the mountain peak near the defense area before guiding the seawater into it.
The purpose of this was to send the boulders into the dock, and then drain the seawater for construction.
Under normal circ.u.mstances, the construction process of a warship would take a long time, otherwise it would be impossible to complete it.
However, in Tang Zhen’s plan, the battleship he built would not take too long. It would take at most a month before it could be used normally.
Such a fast speed was the basic guarantee for the formation of a large warship. Otherwise, if one warship was produced every few years, it would not affect the overall situation at all.
In order to achieve this, the initial preparation work was of utmost importance.
When Tang Zhen was shaping the warship, he had to try his best to consider all the details and strive to shape the hull in one go.
After Tang Zhen’s work was completed, the believers would then set up the runic magic circle and complete the remaining work.
After arriving at the peak of the mountain, Tang Zhen carefully observed the nearby terrain. Finally, he chose a wide area to be used as a dock.
As the [ Map Modification plug-in ] was activated, huge pits immediately appeared on the flat ground.
This was the dry dock used to build the warship. After Tang Zhen fished up the huge rocks that had sunk to the bottom of the sea, he would place them in there for construction.
At the same time as the dock appeared, a huge pa.s.sage appeared in the mountain, leading directly to the sea.
When the pa.s.sage was connected, the sea water kept pouring in, filling up all the big pits.
This pa.s.sage wouldn’t be open all the time. Tang Zhen would further deal with it to prevent the sea monster from landing on land.
Even though they had seen Tang Zhen’s methods more than once, the believers were still endlessly amazed. Their eyes were filled with envy and admiration.
At the same time, they also secretly swore in their hearts that they would definitely work hard to earn battle merits and strive to reach Tang Zhen’s realm one day.
After the construction of the dock was completed, Tang Zhen went to the nearby sea to search for the huge rocks after the mountain peak had shattered.
Due to the special material of this stone, it showed no signs of corrosion even after being soaked in seawater for countless years.
The search process was actually very easy. He only needed to find the reefs above the water, and there would definitely be huge rocks under the sea.
Tang Zhen only used a very short amount of time to find the materials that satisfied her. Then, she began to modify it.
The giant rock hidden under the sea was like a dough, stretched and hollowed out by a pair of invisible hands. Then, it floated to the surface of the sea with the help of spiritual power.
It was as if a ferocious giant sea beast had suddenly risen from the bottom of the sea. Its surface was covered with the remains of sea gra.s.s and various sea creatures, giving it a rather ferocious look.
When the believers who were watching from a distance saw this, they let out an exclamation in unison. They really could not understand what Tang Zhen had done. He was actually able to fish out such a huge rock that was nearly a hundred meters in length?
At this moment, Tang Zhen was fully focused on controlling the huge rock. His spiritual sea was vast and boundless. The strength he possessed was even more terrifying.
This was because the ocean itself had such buoyancy. Coupled with some special techniques, it was not particularly difficult to lift a huge rock from the ocean.
After the huge rock was fished out from the sea, Tang Zhen would move it and send it to the dock through the cave.
In the following period of time, Tang Zhen continued to salvage huge rocks until all the docks were filled.
The seawater in the dock was forcefully pushed into the ocean under the pressure of his mental energy. Soon after, Tang Zhen once again sealed the opening of the sea. The first step of the preparation work was already completed.
After resting for a while, Tang Zhen started to build the rough prototype of the warship according to his thoughts.
The shape of the battleship was naturally streamlined, so it was more convenient to accelerate and could hold on to the sea monster.
Four walls were erected around the warship, making it convenient for the believers to fight against the sea monsters.
Cannons and anti-aircraft machine guns could be installed on the warship. If all of them were installed, they would form a very terrifying net of fire.
In the middle of the battleship was the activity and rest area, which could also be used to store supplies, followed by the statue.
According to this design, the interior of the entire warship looked like the staircases of a Stadium, One Ring after another.
There were also many round windows in the underwater part of the warship, through which the believers could attack.
Under normal circ.u.mstances, it was impossible to leave such a hole at the bottom of a warship.
This was because seawater would rush in through the holes, filling the warship completely and causing it to sink to the bottom of the sea.
However, under the effect of the runic magic circle, something similar to a transparent barrier would appear at the window position, which could prevent seawater from entering. At the same time, it would not affect the attacks inside the warship.
If the sea monster attacked from underwater, the weapon placed on the window would give the sea monster a fatal blow.
