229: Chapter 236 Crazy Upgrade, Comprehensive Enhancement of Combat Power

After unlocking the aerial units, the next step was upgrading the infantry units.

Today, when Ranger Squad 1 fought against the Fusion Insect Swarm, many problems were exposed.

That is, at this stage, ordinary steel Imperial Armor can no longer withstand the crazy firepower of the evolved Insect Swarm.

Bullets wrapped in titanium crystals can easily pierce through ordinary steel Imperial Armor, making the upgrade of defensive attributes an urgent matter.

Apart from defensive power, the Crossbowmen performed poorly when facing Insect Swarm units hiding in the fog.

On one hand, the aerial units of the Insect Swarm had learned from experience this time, flying at higher altitudes than before.

On the other hand, a more important reason was that the Crossbowmen could not lock onto units in the fog with the naked eye.

They could only fire into the air based on the coordinates provided by the Scouts.

Such operational methods were relatively effective when facing Burrowing Giant Insects whose movement trajectories were easy to predict.

But when facing these highly mobile aerial units, it appeared somewhat lackluster.

In the future, there will be many factors like fog that obstruct vision.

The troops cannot always fight during the daytime when light sources are abundant.

According to the System's introduction, this radar System upgrade can be applied to individual soldiers.

If all Armored Soldiers could be equipped with thermal imaging and night vision devices, there would be no need to worry about fighting in special environments in the future.

What kind of improvements will this upgrade bring? Will it allow the individual level of the troops to reach a new height?

Su Yang's eyes flickered as he invested the resources accumulated over the day into the Imperial Armor Camp.

[Level 6 Great Qin Imperial Armor Camp upgrading...]

Hum—

Resources were invested, and the upgrade of the Imperial Armor Camp began.

Bursts of mechanical whirring sounds rang out.

When Su Yang first built the Imperial Armor Camp, he felt the mechanical sounds emitted during the upgrade were very shocking.

But today, after witnessing the upgrade of the Space-Sky Station, the sound of the Imperial Armor Camp upgrading felt a bit weak.

As expected, there is no harm without comparison.

Boom—

The mechanical operation sound stopped abruptly, and the Level 6 Imperial Armor Camp had completed its upgrade.

The Imperial Armor Camp upgrade was quite normal; it didn't rise into the sky and then fall back down like the lords residence.

Come on, let's see what upgrades the Imperial Armor Camp will bring this time.

Su Yang's thoughts flickered, and he opened the Thousand Mechanism Tower panel.

After the Imperial Armor Camp upgraded, the technology required to upgrade various troop types also refreshed.

After finishing reading the seven upgrades provided by the Imperial Armor Camp, Su Yang could not hide the excitement in his heart.

This time, it was not a qualitative leap in Materials or firepower like before, but a tactical strength improvement targeting each infantry unit.

First is the main event, the Great Qin Armored Elite Soldier, which is the troop type with the biggest improvement this time.

The anti-gravity tactical backpack allows the Elite Soldier to carry various weapons and also allows them to gain short-term flight capabilities.

After upgrading the Foundry, one can unlock the weapon customization module.

At that time, small assault weapons can be customized for the Elite Soldiers to supplement their long-range damage.

In this way, the Elite Soldiers can become standard modern warfare assault troops.

Elite Soldiers possessing both long-range and melee firepower will tear through any enemy's defense line.

Next are the Crossbowmen and Skyfire Guard, who have further upgraded their firepower.

The Crossbowmen gain sniping capabilities; in the situation where Elite Soldiers gain short-range firearms, enhancing the long-range shooting ability of the Crossbowmen is indeed a very good choice.

The Skyfire Guard goes without saying; the gold content of the word "missile" is too high. Su Yang only hopes the resource consumption won't be too high.

Then there are the Scouts and Fire Dragon Guard, both of which underwent tactical upgrades.

One gains various reconnaissance robots, capable of flying and burrowing, which will undoubtedly take the Scout's reconnaissance ability to the next level.

The other, the Fire Dragon Guard, gains various tactical traps. With tactical traps combined with the world-destroying Magnetic Storm, Su Yang even wanted to mourn for the enemies.

After the individual unit upgrades, the last are the two upgrades targeting all soldiers.

These two are the upgrades Su Yang feels are the most critical.
