4.6 Billion Year Symphony of Evolution
1028 The Construction of the Fleet
"Hurry up! Put that over!"
The shouting of the virtual people and the roar of metal echoed in the vast square.
Under the grey sky full of dust, huge mechanical devices are hoisting metal after metal, and through a large number of virtual civilian workers, these metals are pieced together.
Is this how they build battleships?
This is the 'Construction Plaza'. Since the general said that he will invade the pompon again, more than sixty days and nights have passed.
This is located at a pier in the city where Lin first landed. There is a rare vast open space in the dense city. A variety of machinery and a large number of virtual people come and go here. Carry them together and put them together like a castle.
A battleship.
However, this battleship is a semi-finished product, and a body made of metal is wrapped on a body of hundreds of meters. Many virtual people go up and down on this shelf to carry out warship combination work.
And there are some huge mechas crawling in front of the shelf. Lynn found that they included the mechas they saw when they attacked the pom-poms, but this is used to carry heavy objects.
The warships of the Void People are not manufactured out of thin air, but instead of transforming a warship used for navigation into a void-based warship. It seems that this trend is now in the world.
The virtual people originally had a huge number of sailing ships, but they are now slowly scrapping these things and transforming them into flying machines.
As a result, their air will be very crowded.
I don't know how long it will take to build this battleship?The pompon flew through the air, observing the bustling construction square in the sky.
What is built here is only one warship, and other warships are built together in other cities or countries. This is mainly due to the lack of open space. Usually the city's ground is filled with buildings, leaving no empty space.
Coupled with the construction of this kind of thing, there are usually many people against it.
The pompon flew towards the exit of the construction square, and a large number of dummy people gathered at the entrance guarded by the guards. They shouted protests and expressed dissatisfaction with the construction of the battleship.
This is mainly because it is said that because of the need to build a warship, a thing called 'taxation' was added, which led to many opinions of the vain people, but Lin is strange that they can actually leave their jobs and go here to protest. It ’s only when there is no leisure.
There are also protesters who believe that the construction of warships would lead to the invasion of aliens.
However, in addition to the protesting people, there are other people living in it.
"Is it said that the first attack failed?" "Please tell me more about the failure!" "What exactly made the first colony fail? Is it alien civilization? Their technology is better than ours Is it still high? What kind of weapons are they using? How many are they? "
Some of the vain people intermingled among the protesters kept asking the guards in front of the door a lot of questions. These vain people were not taking a break, because that was their job.
This group of virtual people are called 'journalists' and they are specifically looking for a lot of interesting events and publishing them as 'news'. There are quite a number of virtual people who like to watch the news. The news can be said to be very influential. It will spread throughout the country and even the world.
But how did these reporters know about their defeat in pompoms?
Of course, Lin told them.
The general had been trying his best to prevent the news from spreading. If the news spread, there would be countless vain people opposed to the construction of warships.
Although living in this environment, these vain people are still timid, they are afraid of change, they are afraid of war, they just want to maintain their current lives.
Lin found that most of the false people are in this mood, and some are tired of the current situation in anticipation of war and the end of the world, but such false people are relatively few.
"Go away! Or I'll shoot!" A Void soldier standing at the door raised his weapon and pointed at the reporter in front.
However, these reporters did not seem to be afraid of death, holding a recording stick to the soldiers and kept saying: "Do you intend to shoot now, does it mean that you do not want to tell the truth? Does it mean that you want to threaten us to leave? Does it mean that the failure was real? "
The guard seemed extremely angry when he saw it. He took out a small square and asked the small square, "Can I shoot?"
"Don't shoot, I will explain to them personally."
"General!" The guard seemed quite surprised that the general's voice came out of the small square.
As a result, the guards here had to shut their mouths tightly and looked at these crazy reporters with angry expressions, waiting for the general to come ...
At the same time, on the other side.
This is the underground research institute in the radioactive area, and the virtual people gathered as usual in front of the wall to observe the little starfish.
'Boom!'With a loud noise, a tentacle of the starfish slammed against the wall, and a large crack appeared on the transparent wall.
Recently, this little starfish has become more and more restless, Lin found that it has been able to withstand very high temperatures, it seems to grow quite fast recently.
It's not that there is no reason why it has grown so suddenly, it may know that it has successfully attracted 'rescue'.
"Quickly lock it!" The manager shouted quickly.
'Ka!'I saw five huge mechanical arms sticking out of the roof, they simultaneously grabbed five tentacles of the starfish, and pressed the starfish firmly to the ground ...
"Goo ..." Starfish was still twisting and struggling, and the director said immediately: "Hurry up and increase the power! Hold it safely!"
The mechanical arm began to increase its strength, and slowly suppressed the starfish who was struggling. Lin felt that the mechanical arm seemed to use hydraulic pressure to move, and the strength was strong enough to press the starfish with a diameter of more than thirty meters on the ground.
This is also the plan of the Void People. They intend to create a set of "equipment" to completely trap this starfish, make it completely immobile, control all its activities and diet, and at the same time try to control its growth.
Virtual people use various 'hormones' and medicines to control the growth of farmed organisms, so they think this starfish can also be controlled.
But its movement must be restrained first, so they trapped it with a mechanical arm first, and then armored it.
They will do this, mainly because of hundreds of years of research, this starfish has very strong vitality, and it doesn't matter how tortured as long as it is not kept under high temperature.
The future of the race depends entirely on an uncontrolled creature. This feeling is really bad.
Therefore, this group of virtual people intends to do everything possible to control this creature.
These mechanical arms were originally used to subdue the starfish. According to the growth of the starfish, they also gradually increased the size of the mechanical arm, and the following things are now made by them.
After holding the starfish completely, the wall on one side of the room rose slowly, and a large group of virtual people and several huge mechas were carrying some large metal.
They surrounded the starfish and began to assemble these metals on the starfish.
At present, Starfish is not struggling, and the movement of the virtual people is quite fast. These metal parts that have been tested will be automatically fitted as long as they are placed in the correct position.
During the assembly process, when the upper half is assembled, the robotic arm will slowly lift the starfish to allow the virtual people to assemble the lower half.
In the end, the metal kit was completely installed on their entire starfish, as if they were equipped with a pair of armor, and it was a bit like they turned a starfish into a metal starfish.
The armor is located at the position where the worm comes out, and the starfish excretion position also has an opening. In addition, it is almost completely sealed. There are joints on the tentacles, which can allow the starfish to move. Activity, in fact, this armor can be regarded as a remote control machine, and those openings can also be closed.
After discussing for so long, they actually came up with such a thing ... Looking at the starfish with armor on, Lin felt that this thing felt quite impractical ...
This is mainly used to control the starfish's activities, control its eating, moving, everything, and also suppress its growth rate.
Ordinary organisms will usually not grow or become deformed if they are suppressed by a large amount of clothing or something, but the main suppression method of the virtual people is still planning to develop some drugs.
They want to mix these drugs in the food for Starfish to eat.
Lin feels that their success rate may be so low as to be negligible ...
After that, a few more days and nights passed.
Starfish accidentally had no opinion on the armor it was wearing, it did not specifically struggle to get it down, and it did a very special thing.
It began to synthesize the transmitter in the body.
Lin's miniature arms watched this process in the frozen body of a small starfish.
The synthesis process is a wonderful process. It slowly hardens with those jelly-like substances, first forming a ball, and then wrapping the skin-like substance layer by layer on the outside.
It feels like a plant called 'onion'.
Speaking of which, Lin had never seen such a plant called onion, only knowing in her thoughts.
The most important thing is that every layer of 'skin' is filled with liquid, and the temperature of these liquids will slowly increase.
There seems to be a lot of complex substances interacting with each other, causing the transmitter to slowly raise the temperature, and at the same time some strangely shaped structures change inside.
It's like making a creature, but it's quite fast.
Although it has been able to resist high temperatures, the starfish body is still a very low temperature environment, and the temperature of this newly created thing is getting higher and higher. At the end, an object like a heart is formed.
Lin, however, almost completely recorded its composition.
