Human power is great, especially when facing desperate situations.
Construction sites can be seen everywhere in the Mingfa camp. Stones dug from various ruins and cement found in the ruins of cement factories are mixed together and piled into rough and huge buildings.
In order to defend against evolved beasts, especially aerial evolved beasts, the newly planned buildings in Mingfa Camp are all thickened and enlarged stone houses.
There are also logging teams that cut down tall evolutionary trees. Not only do the barks of these evolutionary trees have a metallic gradient, but there are also some signs of metallic gradients inside. The overall hardness has greatly improved, and they are almost catching up with the standards of ironwood.
These timbers will be used to support columns inside the building.
Regarding the evolutionary tree, the scientific research institute is very optimistic that it may not be long before hard wood can replace steel.
However, after all, houses cannot be built too high, but develop underground. Today's aerial evolutionary beasts are not easily resisted by humans - the leprosy fly colony at Xinqiao Airport, not far from the camp; the dragon wasp colony at Huoshan Oasis And bloody mosquito groups will also designate this place as a feeding ground at any time.
Coupled with the occasional passing of powerful individual bird-like evolved beasts that resemble giant vultures, humans can only be on the defensive.
Camp construction was in full swing, and leadership meetings were equally frequent.
But Shen Cong never participated again.
Now that you have decided to leave, you no longer force yourself to integrate into the camp. The top management notified Shen Cong several times that he would not come, and gradually acquiesced to his isolation.
Now Shen Cong won't even step inside the camp unless necessary.
Usually he only goes to scientific research institutes to see what new technological products are available, or to ask people to help him build some equipment. He hired a craftsman to help tan his swift leopard skin.
Then he often went to sweet potato fields, soybean fields, and peach orchards. The active peach cannot wait until it matures. It is currently in the sapling stage, and it will take at least half a year to bear fruit. He is waiting for this batch of active sweet potatoes and life-saving soybeans to mature. Both active fruits are foods that can be stored for a long time.
And it can be planted in Donkey Kong's flower room.
Shen Cong planned to store a batch to cope with the possibility of lack of food on the road in the future.
"These three kinds of active fruits with rich activity have great demand for activity in the soil. In order to ensure sufficient fertility, we grind the metal waste into powder and then sprinkle it into the soil. In this way, the active fruits will grow very vigorously and will not There is a lack of nutrition.”
Director Yu Fucheng of the Sweet Potato Laboratory is already very familiar with Shen Cong and is introducing to Shen Cong the fertilizer waste produced in the camp - Jin Kaola.
The production of Jinkela is not a groundbreaking scientific research achievement.
A long time ago, scientific research institutes relied on experiments to determine that metal rust and corrosion processes may be a behavior that releases activity to the outside world.
In other words, in addition to activated metals, most ordinary metals are constantly corroding, rusting, and reducing their mass. It is likely that these masses supplement the free activity in the air through some kind of physical and chemical reaction.
Otherwise there is no way to explain why there is so much free activity in the air.
Obviously, a meteor shower cannot bring inexhaustible activity. It must be the falling meteorite fragments that catalyze the transformation of metals and activity.
"What is the consumption of ordinary fertilizer?" Shen Cong asked.
Yu Fucheng replied: "It consumes a lot. We found that we basically need to apply fertilizer once every three days, otherwise it will slow down the growth of active sweet potatoes. Because there is no fertilizer, we dig out the mud from the Dafangying Reservoir to fertilize, and the effect is good. .The life-saving soybeans require slightly less fertilizer, so fertilize about once every five days.”
After leaving the crop fields of Digua Laboratory, Shen Cong went to the beekeeping area of Mibao Laboratory.
The larvae he handed over to the laboratory successfully raised a royal larvae and became a queen bee. The pupa larvae in the hive also successfully matured into worker bees and began to work in the artificially built hive. It's just that this batch of honey bees There's not enough.
"It will take at least three months for the honey bee colony to grow and start producing honey honey in a stable mass. What we have to ensure now is to find suitable nectar sources for the honey bees. There are not many evolutionary trees blooming around the camp, so for the time being we can only Let the honey bees collect pollen for life-saving soybeans.”
Deputy Director Xu Changde pointed to the honeybees that were stuffing pollen into the hive and said: "When this batch of pollen is collected, we plan to go to Shushan Mountain to breed honeybees. Not far from Shushan, there are evolved fruit trees that bloom all year round. "
The honey bees in the honey laboratory are not friendly to humans and will sometimes fly out and sting people, although the damage is almost non-existent.
But after stinging a human, the honey bee doesn't live long, and the laboratory cannot afford the loss.
Shushan Refuge is currently unoccupied and is suitable for beekeeping.
…
After exchanging beekeeping experiences with Xu Changde, Shen Cong returned to Donkey Kong and began to toss his own honey bees.
He also has a queen bee!
The tortured royal larva finally grew into a queen bee not long ago, making Shen Cong give up the idea of establishing a sensory connection with it.
"The larvae can no longer establish sensory connections and must be grasped from the eggs." This is the result Shen Cong came to.
However, it may be that "no acquaintance without fighting", even though there is no perceptual connection with the queen bee, the queen bee still has a kind of close behavior towards him. Shen Cong felt that this was either an onset of Queen Bee Stockholm Syndrome, or a sense of familiarity caused by long-term active running-in.
The queen bee was still close to her, but the other newly grown bees couldn't express their closeness to Shen Cong.
They buzzed and flew around when they saw Shen Cong, and they never dared to get close to Shen Cong.
This was because he was afraid of the pressure emanating from Shen Cong.
Basically, evolved beasts with very low activity levels will behave in fear of his pressure. Even Blackhead showed very unnatural emotions when Shen Cong had just passed 1.946h, and was a little embarrassed when facing Shen Cong. , and slowly recovered over time.
Therefore, when observing the honey bees he raised, Shen Cong stood relatively far away.
In his flower room, he planted several life-saving soybean plants. They are now in the flowering stage, and honey bees are buzzing around the life-saving soybeans to collect honey.
Shen Cong wants to breed a small colony of honey bees. It doesn't need to be big, as long as it can produce five small bottles of honey bees and half a bottle of royal jelly for him every day.
He tasted the taste of precious royal jelly and it was extremely beautiful.
And the effect is far better than Mibao. It not only has a certain strengthening effect on physical fitness, but also can fully tap the strengthening effect of active fruits when combined with active fruits. It is an excellent catalyst.
…
The mechanical vines are still the same.
He kept mumbling incoherently about "so comfortable" and "uncomfortable" all day long, and his growth was extremely slow.
Shen Cong gave it Jinkola, which gave it a vague feeling of "eat, eat, eat, eat, eat, eat, feel good". It was originally 30 centimeters tall when it was planted, but now it is 35 centimeters tall, and it has only grown five centimeters in total. .
Looking around, the tubers of the active sweet potatoes have burst the soil in the pots, the life-saving soybeans have bloomed and are about to bear fruit, and the active peach saplings have grown to 44 centimeters - you can feel the garbage of the mechanical vines.
"If it doesn't grow faster, I'll chop it down for you!" Shen Cong pointed at the mechanical vines, issuing a perceived threat.
The mechanical vines matched with a vague emotion: "I'm full, I'm full, I feel good." (To be continued.)
