Chapter 18: base


An uninhabited island nearly 100 nautical miles south of the South Australian Sea.
It is far away from the main trade routes and ports, so basically no boat will come to patronize this place where birds do not shit.
There is a recessed area on the island, surrounded by mountains and cliffs on both sides. As long as the ship is not close to the island, it is impossible to find that there are no caves. Nie Yun and the New Sea Wolf are hiding here at this time.
Nie Yun stood on a coral reef on the shore and looked up at the new Sea Wolf in front of her nest.
That's right, Nie Yun's new car, the Sea Wolf, hasn't been full of sight for 24 hours, and hasn't had time to show the world a magnificent body.
The mechanical worms are cleaning the reef inserted into the sea wolf's abdomen, and repairing the big hole again to discharge the seawater.
"Ah, so I can't make a boat too much waves! I want to engage in a night march, you see, it really collapsed!" Nie Yun blamed you on the Sea Wolf.
Sea Wolf: "..." (I want to go back and lie for hundreds of years ...)
When boarding the new Seawolf, the debris on the hull surface has been cleaned up, most of the area is refreshed, and the deck becomes bright.
In one corner, there are also piles of waste wood and various garbage collected by mechanical insects, which are their raw material warehouses.
Nie Yun nodded with satisfaction. He planned to re-intensify and repair the Sea Wolf, and then gradually replace it with mechanical insects to complete the transformation of mechanical insects.
After all, although there are a lot of mechanical worms at present, compared with the huge new sea wolf, it seems a bit insignificant. I am afraid that even if the mechanical worms are filled in, there will be no way to completely replace the keel.
At the same time, it will not occupy too many mechanical worms to build materials, which can fully liberate the working efficiency of mechanical worms.
Mechanical Bug: "..." (Evil Capitalist!)
In addition to the non-stop mechanical worms on the ship, centered on the Sea Wolf, densely packed robot worms are spreading around this reef, clearing the seabed reefs, and collecting all available materials on the bottom.
Since inventing this new way of exploring robot insect spiders, Nie Yun found that raw materials are no longer the main factor limiting the number of robot insects, and the resources on the seabed far exceed everyone's imagination.
Countless years of human development and ocean trade have filled the entire ocean with man-made garbage and waste, but these things are a cheap raw material for mechanical insects.
What restricts the development of mechanical insects now is the energy issue.
After all, mechanical bugs are not professional energy collectors. Even if they absorb solar energy, they cannot guarantee 24/7 operation and self-proliferation, so now, mechanical bugs can only stop and restore energy from time to time.
Nie Yun was a little depressed, just like a factory owner. His factory clearly produced coveted profits at all times, but he could not let the workers work three shifts. This cruel reality made him very upset.
Mechanical bug: "..." (we want bug rights!)
This is just one of Nie Yun ’s worries. In addition to energy issues, confidentiality issues have also been brought to the table.
In view of Nie Yun ’s unwavering belief in large size (fog ~), the Sea Wolf is bound to grow larger and larger, so in the state of a small fishing boat, you do n’t have to worry about it, but if it is almost a hundred meters in size, you want to It ’s unlikely to be unnoticed, and there are satellites everywhere in this world.
If the current appearance of the new Sea Wolf is discovered, the headlines on the front page of the next day's news must be "The ancient Spanish warship is reappearing in the world. It is suspected that pirates are infested and many countries are going to die!"
The secrets on the Sea Wolf were so amazing, Nie Yun had to strengthen confidentiality, he did n’t want to be caught and sliced.
To solve this problem, it is actually very simple-just have a base!
As long as there is a secret base, then the work of the mechanical worms has a fixed place of production. From guerrilla warfare to position warfare, the efficiency can be greatly improved.
If you need to come forward, let a part of the mechanical worms assemble the old version of the Seawolf fishing boat, so you do n’t have to be afraid of many things.
In a word, establishing a base area and expanding the group of mechanical worms is an unstoppable development trend! It is an inevitable choice for dark and rubbing insignificant development!
Nie Yun ordered the mechanical worms to clear the surrounding reefs. In addition to clearing the waterway to facilitate the entry and exit of the Sea Wolf, he also wanted to try to establish a secret base here.
"The secret base or something, it sounds very interesting!" Nie Yun was a little excited.
Uh, so much, are you sure you are not for fun? !
"Goo ~" At this time, Nie Yun's stomach "boomed" again.
"Come again ... Alas! You work hard, I'm not easy, this is the first time today ..." Nie Yun was helpless.
As the number of mechanical insects continues to rise, the physical energy he needs to control the mechanical insects is also rising, and solar energy is no longer enough.
Fortunately, he has just discovered a magical way to recharge, otherwise the food crisis will be the biggest problem that Nie Yun will face!
He walked to a pile of burning Zhengwang fire, and the dry wood that the mechanical worms moved to collect was added as fuel. Now it is surrounded by silver-white mechanical worms. This is the energy of the mechanical worms. One of the supplementary places, although the method is more primitive, but chat is better than nothing.
Seeing the boss coming, the mechanical bugs gave way, and Nie Yun extended his hand without hesitation, directly into the burning flame.
A miraculous scene happened, the flame licked Nie Yun ’s palm, but Nie Yun seemed to feel nothing, but also showed a satisfied and comfortable look, the palm of the flame has silver light flowing from time to time, transforming heat energy, Supplement Nie Yun's physical fitness.
This is a new skill that Nie Yun discovered by chance. As for why he can be recharged with heat energy, even if he has not learned biology, Nie Yun said that this problem can be solved by an elementary school person with infinite probability. Approaching zero ...
"Now it's more and more similar to the mechanical bug. People are like sons like me, but I'm like sons like me, the other way around! I don't know if I drink gasoline, is there the same effect?" Chin thinking.
But in the end he shook his head and quickly hurled this idea of ​​completing the "standard action of self-immolation" into his mind.
