The battleship is almost complete. Ye Zhong is now leading a group of people to Silk Grass Sea. Ye Zhong extracted a special transparent colloid from the colloid bacteria in Silk Grass Sea. This substance can block all signal detection. This transparent colloid is widely used by Ye Zhong on light armor and battleships. As a layer of coating, it can make light armor and battleships invisible. The only way to detect them is through optical mode. Compared with full-bone light armor, this kind of concealment performance is better, because it is also effective for red-tailed beasts.
Therefore, the demand for colloid bacteria in the fortress suddenly increased.
The beasts in this area are much weaker than top creatures such as red-tailed beasts and night snow leopards. But it still cannot be underestimated, so Ye Zhong personally led the team this time. Since all signals are blocked here, the mining work needs to be completely manual. How to establish a small mining farm here is one of the problems Ye Zhong needs to face.
In addition to the mining site, Ye Zhong was also very interested in the hidden crack that ran through the entire sea of silk grass.
The construction of mining sites was very rapid. And all of this stems from Sha Ya's discovery. Sha Ya discovered that activities in this area that can shield spiritual thoughts can quickly stimulate the growth of Sagittarius. Therefore, Ye Chong simply dragged all the shooters here to work as coolies. Facts have proved that Sha Ya's advice is very valuable. Because the spiritual thoughts of these shooters were restrained like never before, they made rapid progress. This also makes them very excited to work. In the end, they arranged to sleep on this sea of silk grass that even the red-tailed beasts were in awe of.
Ye Zhong's exploration of the cracks was in progress nervously.
The entrance to this crack that runs through the entire Silk Grass Sea is very hidden. It is completely covered by an ancient tree more than thirty meters high, and can only be discovered when you get closer. The trunk of this ancient tree is extremely thick, about ten meters in diameter, and it looks like it from a distance. It gives people the feeling of being short and strong. The purple-brown bark is as hard as iron, and the leaves are also dark purple with a strong metallic sheen.
The cracks are very narrow compared to the thick and strong trunk. Only about less than five meters wide.
There were only two people, Ye Zhong and Rui Bing, in the exploration operation. Although the other students' teamwork was already very good, in Ye Zhong's eyes, their individual strength was still far behind. Even if he and Rui Bing encountered an irresistible danger, it would be very easy for him and Rui Bing to retreat.
The personal guard fully highlighted Rui Bing's perfect figure, and she sat quietly on Chen's shoulders.
In such an environment, the ancient spear was not practical, so Ye Zhong took out the fighting thorn.
Carrying Rui Bing, Chen half-closed his eyes, like a giant wearing dark armor. Sweep into the cracks.
As soon as I entered, my eyes suddenly brightened. This is a naturally formed canyon where you can see traces of geological movements.
It was quiet inside the crack. There was no sound, but Ye Zhong and Rui Bing did not dare to be careless at all. Because at the bottom of the entire crack, the bones of beasts can be seen everywhere. Even the skeletons of powerful creatures like red-tailed beasts and night snow leopards are very common here.
This made Ye Zhong and Rui Bing immediately alert. These skeletons were enough to prove the danger here.
"Be careful." Ye Zhong said softly. His eyes didn't leave the holographic screen for half a second.
Rui Bing responded with a hum, changed her position on Chen Di's shoulder, and put a hand on Chen's shoulder. She leaned forward slightly so that she could launch an attack at any time, and she also took the dagger in her hand. ,,Suddenly, the mist in the crack began to fill. The crack suddenly became completely white, and you couldn't even see your fingers. This white mist had no effect on Chen's holographic scanning system.
Ye Zhong looked at the data analyzed by his brain: "This fog is poisonous."
Rui Bing nodded: "No wonder these beasts died here."
Chen carried Rui Bing forward quickly. The terrain here was very complex, with rugged rocks everywhere.
Ouch, a moan as thin as a gossamer sounded.
Both of them were startled and walked cautiously towards the place where the sound came from. It turned out to be a night snow leopard. It had obviously inhaled a lot of white mist, and its body showed an extremely strange blue color. This night snow leopard had sad eyes and moaned feebly. The night snow leopard in Darkness's direction was so weak that even a child could easily kill it.
Ye Chong looked as usual: "This poison is very powerful."
Almost as soon as he finished speaking, the Night Snow Leopard's neck tilted and he lost his breath.
Along the way, the two of them kept seeing the corpses of various beasts, some of which were extremely tenacious. It can be seen that they stayed in the crack for a long time, and the poisonous mist invaded their bodies, causing them to lose the ability to move. However, the toxicity of this poisonous mist is not so overbearing. They will not die for a while, but their bodies will become weaker little by little, until they are skin and bones, and they will die after consuming the last bit of energy.
Rui Bing couldn't bear to see these beasts suffering so much pain. Whenever she saw the poisoned but not dead beasts, she would simply end their suffering with a dagger. Whenever she ends the life of a beast, the beast always looks relieved.
This crack was extremely long, and Ye Chong and Rui Bing flew for about five days. Ye Chong quickly discovered the pattern when poisonous mist arises. It is diffused section by section, so as long as you are fast and understand the rules of how the poisonous mist is generated, you can pass through this narrow crack.
So far, Ye Zhong has not found the body of the six-toed red-tailed beast before. Apparently, it successfully passed through the crack.
On the fifth day, the two finally flew to the exit of this crack.
When you see a vast mountain range, this crack leads directly into the mountainous area.
Rui Bing stared for a while and said in surprise: "We have been to this place before. This mountainous area is very wide. It is not too far from the place where we first arrived. Going forward, there is a soft body of a red-tailed beast. Nest. But we only encountered some relatively low-level red-tailed beasts there, not the six-toed ones."
Ye Zhong marked it on the map, glanced at the mountains in the distance, and said to Rui Bing: "Let's go back. We will come back next time."
The two rushed back to the fortress as quickly as possible.
"The opening of space windows requires a lot of energy, and the energy required to form natural space windows is often provided by high-energy substances such as tear stones. Although I don't know that creatures like red-tailed beasts directly seek natural The space window was opened by themselves, but they obviously know how to use tear stones to expand the space window. The naturally formed space window is not very large. Generally speaking, the normal size can only pass through a light armor. And Akao The space window through which the beasts pass is obviously much larger."
Ariyod was reporting his research results during this period to Ye Chong. Since having Shaya's help, Ariyod has become even more powerful. He has been able to study the structure of the space window. Ariyod had never thought that someone could detect the structure of a space window without using any tools. This is amazing!
Even in the Heyue Star Territory, there is no instrument that can do this.
It's just that Sha Ya doesn't have relevant knowledge, so the expression is not so clear. But despite this, the help she gave Ariyod was still huge.
"I have been studying how to expand the space window. As long as you have high-energy materials like tear stones, this is not very difficult. Of course, the premise is that you need a natural space window. It is easier than opening a new space window. "More." Ariyode said honestly. Compared with ordinary scientists, Ariyod's situation is more bumpy. He has a deeper understanding of the world, so that sometimes, he is like a businessman. He will complete his research on the premise that the investment is as good as possible for investors, which can ensure that he obtains stable investment. He knew what Ye Chong needed and wanted most right now, so he worked hard in this regard.
Ye Chong frowned, he now needed to find a way back to the Heyue Star Territory. Instead of expanding the radius of the space window. He asked: "What's the use of this?"
Ariyod said: "If you want to take this huge spaceship back. This technology is quite valuable."
"Yeah. Not bad." Ye Dian nodded to show his praise for Ariyode, but he continued to ask: "Can we find the way back to the Heyue Star Territory now?" This was a question that had always been a headache for him.
Ariyod shook his head: "It depends on our luck. If we can find the space window leading to the Heyue Star Territory, then all problems will be solved."
"Where can I find the space window leading to the Heyue Star Territory?" Ye Zhong couldn't help but ask. Although the technology of bio-optical brain has made a lot of progress. But it is still too early to make an advanced bio-optical brain.
Ariyod hesitated and repeated his speculation.
Ye Zhong fell into deep thought, and after a while, he raised his head: "Well, what you said makes sense. But we have already searched all the areas on the Silk Grass Sea, except for the areas leading to Nanzhou and Xihan Country. The space window, there is no other space window. If your inference is correct, it should be over the Silk Grass Sea."
Ye Zhong and the others had already searched this end of the Silk Grass Sea using hummingbirds. The blank areas in the holographic map have long been explored by them. During this period, Ye Chong also discovered a large number of mineral deposits, but because his battleship had already been completed. He did not touch those mineral deposits, but only mined some relatively rare minerals. Ye Chong has been thinking about Mu Shang's broken arm, and he now has very complete materials. Except for extremely rare materials such as dokunite, blue platinum, he has almost prepared other rare materials.
Now the students in the fortress have already come into contact with the Sea of Silk Grass, but until now, they have not dared to enter this very strange place. However, the beasts living near the Silk Grass Sea were not so lucky, and they all became victims of their efforts to hone their combat skills.
This behemoth can actually fly. Every member of the fortress had a ghostly look on their face. Whenever this happens, Ariyod will curl his lips, with an expression that seems to say, they are really a bunch of country bumpkins who have never seen the world.
I don’t know if it’s because of nervousness. The battleship fell diagonally from the sky during its first flight. Fortunately, the ship's hull was strong and the protection measures were well taken, so no casualties were caused. But then, they quickly became familiar with the operation of the spaceship.
This battleship, which Ye renamed Darkness, was made of such luxurious materials that it would be absolutely difficult to find another one. Just selling materials for this battleship is an extremely terrifying astronomical figure.
Seventy passage doors allow the light armor in the battleship to attack at the fastest speed. The naval guns configured are amazingly powerful, although their structure is not the most advanced. However, since all the top materials are used, the performance is still extremely terrifying. In addition to these, Ye Zhong made a very important improvement, which was to add a shooting cabin. The aiming accuracy of such shooting cabins controlled by specialized shooters is far superior to automatic aiming, let alone weapons such as laser launchers.
These shooting cabins, which are difficult to operate, are prepared for shooters. In space, because the environment is not as complex as the atmosphere, a shooter's spiritual thoughts can reach farther places in such an environment. These shooters usually aim at a place the size of a thumb. If the target is a light armor or a red-tailed beast that is more than ten meters high, within the range of spiritual thoughts, it will definitely be accurate. In order to fully utilize their terrifying precision, their training content includes the study of the structure of light armor and the popularization of common sense such as the vital points of beasts. The shooter's body is not strong enough to bear the powerful load brought about by fighting in light armor, but there is no need to consider this issue on a battleship.
A wonderful idea caused the value of the shooter, who originally had a limited role in Ye Chong's eyes, to skyrocket. What every battleship fears most is being approached by the enemy, and for the Darkness, this will be the area with the most powerful firepower.
"It seems it's time to set off." Ye Chong murmured.
