Chapter 106 Preparing for the Future

The text above clearly states information equivalent to technological blueprints, and the content is identical to what they get from defeating monsters.

The same format, the same description, and it can even be directly put into production using machine tools...

[Tier 1 Technology Blueprints]

[Golden Music Era Company 3xd1 Disc]

Materials: Polyester, Polyethylene

[The cassette tape containing music by a famous singer is damaged and cannot be read.]

Upon closer inspection, He Feng pondered for a long time.

If it looks like a scientific blueprint, has the same uses as a scientific blueprint, and can be used as a scientific blueprint, then it is a scientific blueprint.

In essence, this feature is an online version of technical blueprints.

This is indeed wonderful news that brings joy.

Aside from requiring a considerable amount of data entry, it has almost no flaws and is quite easy to use.

However, he still had concerns.

It must be ensured that the copied version can be used with the drawings.

"Come here," He Feng beckoned. "Try to have someone copy down all the graphics and information on it for me, one-to-one. This is very important."

"Yes, my lord."

"By the way, try putting the copy into the slot of the machine tool and see if it can be recognized."

He Feng's tone became more serious, and his face became solemn. "If you can identify it, just pull it out and check it quickly."

Zhou Haiping nodded vigorously, nervously picking up the ball of light He Feng handed him. He moved it slowly but almost horizontally from the captain's office, extremely careful like a middle-aged man practicing balancing.

It must be said that this new feature has truly reshaped He Feng's plans.

The resource consumption required to upgrade a Tier 1 fortress is simply outrageous.

To become a behemoth, one must either consume all the resources of a low-level sea area and grow into a colossus, only then will one have enough confidence to face any risks without fear.

They are either favored underlings behind high-level fortresses, hoarding resources by taking advantage of the leftovers from the high-level fortresses to qualify for advancement.

If you're a regular fortress looking for a fun combat experience and want to plunder to acquire resources, this is certainly a good method, second only to the previous two.

However, the icy sea is vast and sparsely populated. After one meal, there is no way to encounter a second one for several months in a row. You might even be defeated by someone stronger than yourself.

It's not worth it at all.

The first two are the most righteous paths that a normal person could think of, because they are not strong enough themselves and can only rely on powerful forces to develop.

However, if we truly possess this powerful means of "copying technological blueprints," then we can reverse the disadvantage of being outnumbered and outmatched.

As everyone knows, no intelligent power on the Ice Sea would flaunt their technological blueprints.

They generally prefer to rely on their own manpower or machine tools for production, preserving their cash cows, and never even think about trading opportunities.

This is also one of the important factors restricting the development of science and technology in the world.

The means of replicating technology can undoubtedly break this knowledge blockade and allow the Blue Ocean to be open source in one direction.

If we can find an opportunity to replicate the equipment of those high-level fortresses, it will also be able to achieve a breakthrough, which will change the situation where the Azure lacks sufficiently fierce fangs.

If a Tier 1 fortress possesses the strength to rival a Tier 2 fortress, then it is no longer a Tier 1 fortress; it is merely a glass cannon with the body of a Tier 1 fortress.

Meanwhile, other Tier 2 fortresses that want to capture the Azure will have to weigh the pros and cons.

Even if we can defeat them, their resources are insufficient to cover the enormous resource losses of our second-tier fortress level.

If you can't win, you'll lose face big time and give all your accumulated wealth to the other side.

He's a complete troublemaker, a ruthless character in one-on-one situations.

Thinking of this, He Feng's heart was filled with excitement.

A few hours later, a voice came from the network channel next to He Feng; it was Zhou Haiping's smiling, ingratiating voice.

"It's done, my lord. All parameters and data have been entered correctly, and the machine tool is usable."

He Feng was particularly satisfied with this answer, but he still kept his joy hidden and spoke calmly.

"We should still prioritize the research of reverse engineering blueprints, and use these as samples for reverse engineering."

After saying that, he cut off the sound transmission channel and looked at the figure lingering at the door. He could feel that someone had their ear pressed close to the crack in the door.

If it weren't for his uncontrollable cheer, he might not have noticed the huge snowstorm outside.

"Come in, there's no one here, and it's too windy outside, it'll be bad if you get blown around," He Feng said cheerfully.

"Huh?!" A surprised exclamation came from outside, and then, without opening the door, they started laughing through the door.

"What a coincidence, Lord! I was just passing by and thought I'd go contribute to our Azure Ship. Let's chat sometime!"

The hurried footsteps faded away with the wind, and now it was clear that no one could be felt lingering there anymore.

It's probably obvious that this was Ji Chun's scheme.

In order to solicit his opinion, Zhou Haiping was specially asked to act as the mediator to increase his tolerance.

After all, what others say is more effective than what they say.

Although this child has ultimately gone astray.

But it's not necessarily a bad thing.

He Feng pulled himself out of the plans for the Azure Ship and tried to incorporate this biggest variable into a series of future actions.

The captured second-tier electric towers and some equipment that only have physical form but no related technology are just a matter of time before the technology is mastered.

Besides.

He also had the opportunity to acquire new technologies from Tier 2 fortresses.

Any technology collected from other places, as long as it can be read and recorded, gives them the opportunity to get something for nothing.

Even cheating wouldn't be this bad.

According to the intelligence reports, encountering a Tier 2 fortress might not be such a bad thing.

On the contrary, it could be a rich mine, allowing them to further acquire a technologically advanced resource.

True technology should be in the hands of people, not in cold machines. Machines will stifle technological growth and turn people into mindless zombies.

Previously, He Feng was worried about what to do if there weren't enough technical blueprints for Ji Chun and the others to practice on.

It seems it was a false alarm.

In times of crisis, use machine tools to rapidly develop units; when there's no immediate need, let your own people practice developing technology to reach the level of "0" to "1".

Once this technological edifice is completed, not to mention those second-tier technologies, even those third-tier technologies that can be described as miracles will just be a technological point in the future.

It is a long road, but also the widest and most reliable road to travel the furthest.

"Building lost technologies from scratch?"

He Feng's lips curled slightly, and suddenly a surge of passion seemed to well up in his heart.

He rested his right elbow on the table, pinched his chin with his index finger and thumb, and muttered to himself.

"That's interesting."

The flames of Prometheus may well begin in this unremarkable Tier 1 fortress.
