32.13 The scaly growth of rock crystals

In March 103, the industrial city in the southern part of Huangchi City was brightly lit. Compared with a year ago, there were many more changes here.

First the river channel from the factory to the coastline was widened.

A giant beast like a sea lion that is 40 meters long leaned against the port. These sea Gus responsible for hydrocarbon mining were like milk beasts on the shore, connecting the mouthpiece to a row of metal entrances on the shore. This was not sucking, but injecting the fermented oil produced by the accumulation of algae in the body into the pipeline.

In this process, the "scale pythons" (female) on the shore select these "fat sea lions" (male) who come ashore. As females, they choose the one that spits out the most oil and holds them together. When the "python" returns to the Gu nest, they will produce the next generation of better resource exploiters.

These two kinds of small beasts are the craft Gu transformed by Zhou You using the Linlong Dragon.

The scale python has the function of implanting lithium battery cells (equivalent to human fat) into other gu beasts, and the fat man in the sea is a soldier specially used to collect seaweed and make fuel. Of course, the fat man is easily hunted by other gu beasts in the seawater, so it is necessary for ships to take care of it.

This mine protection work is currently being done by the Huangchi family. In the future, Zhouyou has designed the gunboat.

Under the experimental debugging of Zhouyou, the species Linlong has developed a "Gu-like nest" system.

Why is it a "gu nest-like" system? Because this system has many "flaws" than a normal Gu nest, and there are too many parts that require human interference.

First of all, the Gu nest is 150 meters long and twenty meters wide, and the keel structure is completed by the shipyard.

Zhou You: "When it evolves a keel with sufficient strength, it must be allowed to move into the sea and adapt continuously. It's too troublesome. I'll just use a water press to spell one!"

As for its shell, steel plates are also welded, but the exposed part of the arthropods are left. These strange shrimp-like leaf-foot arthropods can make them paddle in the water.

As for its land movement, the bottom of the Gu Nest has steel wheels and is matched with bearings!

No, that's not considered bearings. This kind of large bearing is particularly difficult to process. Especially the large gear structure cannot be built. Zhouyou only processed the steel rod part with tooth marks.

There are eight specifications on the chassis of this large Gu Nest, with 670 concave mouths. It takes turns to open its mouth from forty angles, bite the steel shaft with teeth, and then twist it (just like putting a bamboo dragonfly and pulling it with your left and right hands), and you can turn it and drive the wheels!

Zhou You: "The insect's teeth are good, and they can be supplemented if they fall off. No, you don't have to worry about the wear of the gears." As for the different sizes of the bite mouth, it corresponds to different torques. Of course, Zhou You will never say that he was the inspiration he found when he saw Yutan's mouth that day.

As for the built-in energy of the bug, Zhouyou temporarily used a diesel generator to charge Linlong's electricity storage tissue. Fully charged, allowing it to travel 200 kilometers on dirt roads.

...

In the eyes of people in this world, the most important function of the Gu Nest is the production of arms.

This, Linlong can do it.

The first type of soldier insect produced: scales all over the body, and the energy inside the abdominal cavity is lithium batteries. There are five pairs of back limbs on the back, which can weld firearms and cannons.

As for the abdomen, there are eight arthropods, and the two chelids are degenerated and combined as brackets. If artificial bearings are installed, they can be used to speed up the electric vehicle-level bearings (electric vehicle-level bearings can now be mass-produced at the industrial level). The speed on the dirt road is 30 kilometers per hour.

However, the biggest difference between this kind of war beast and other insects is not only that it can move by relying on artificial bearing parts.

All the completion processes of the adult body of the son Gu are not modulated in one step by step by the mother Gu gene, and require manual intervention.

For example, the first type of military Gu is a small egg among the eight kinds of original eggs produced by the female scale Gu insect.

After a lot of this small egg was lost by the matrix, Zhouyou finally figured out how to stimulate and develop again, so that it meets the tooling standards.

First, put in a "bicycle-like" skeleton to shape it. The frame material is made of a composite material with melted glass and inserted into iron wire, because pure metal is easily digested and corroded by Linlong biological fluids.

In the culture tank, the corresponding metal materials are injected and powered into the power supply to complete the secondary development outside the egg.

This development cycle is 5 hours, and the energy used is 12 kilowatt-hours. The entire growth process makes Zhouyou feel like nano-manufacturing technology.

In fact, this kind of "armed motorcycle" with scales and various firepower welded on the back. Because its glass skeleton is consistent in specifications, the bearings and spokes are also standard industrial products. Compared with other insects in Rock Crystal Star, it has a regular feeling of industrial products.

In addition to the first type of military insect, there are twenty-seven types of work insects and three types of information flying insects. Among the work insects, in addition to the fat man who filters green algae in the deep sea, there is also a ground worm that strengthens the strength of the forelimbs. The forelimbs have only evolved muscles, and their claws are made of cast iron by humans and put them on directly.

Overall, Linlong is a semi-bastard high-level insect that has not evolved completely in all aspects. Humans need to fill the links.

Although this Gu nest structure of the singer dragon requires heavy industry to process it, the energy organs need human diesel engines to store electricity for it. Even military insects need human modulation to provide initial parts.

However, the remote information control capability that Zhouyou values ​​most is not adulterated at all. With the large supply of electricity, it evolved at the beginning of this year. It can remotely control the military insect clusters 400 kilometers away through flying information beetle relay.

This is already enough to meet the standard of strategic insects in the concept of the world.

...

On May 15, Yutan came because... from any perspective, Zhouyou's efforts were too strong.

This kind of Long Dragon Gu has the potential of a war monster, and its potential has not yet exploded. Zhouyou, who has mastered this method of contracting the insects,

In recent months, Huangchi investigators have searched for Zhou You's origin and naturally discovered that the prayer bird made fake information. As for what is Zhou You's true identity? Now this is a mystery.

Now this puzzle may not necessarily be solved for Huangchi City.

Isn’t it a puzzle for everyone to find a way to coexist with insect swarms today?

The secret of a capable person is the secret, but a capable person is qualified to have a secret.

For Yutan, one thing is certain. At present, Zhou You has arrived at the territory of the Lie Locust family and should be seeking support.

Now the Lie Locust family is increasing in authority in the Northeast Bay. Foreign nobles came to find support with war giant Gu, rather than seeking help from the empire, nor to seek other families. This is a manifestation of the increase in family reputation.

The Lie Locust family hopes that they have a strong influence, but will not unconditionally support all seekers.

The factory area, a building with a front balcony, a small garden, a total area of ​​50 square meters, is Zhouyou's residence. Now the gate is blocked by the warrior carriage.

The Lord Lord walked down wearing metal knight armor. Her helmet was golden and raised with a screech feather. Her face, under the bridge of her nose, was covered by the face armor, which seemed to create a mysterious beauty.

Zhou You complained: "If you didn't yell at me last year, this armor would have the function of a veil. But now - what? Can you weld this armor to death?"

Zhou You, who was holding the notebook, looked at her, bowed to her, and said, "Sir, I am very surprised by your arrival. Now, I have fulfilled my mission. The plan is still successful at the moment."

After a slight smile on his face.

Yu Tan: "Congratulations, Mr. Zhou You."

Her eyes swept through Zhou You in a penetrating way.

Zhou You is not wearing scale armor now, but is wearing cloth clothes, a healthy skin tone and a smooth body that attracts her attention.

In her opinion, such a high-level war insect controller who has no guards means that he is very frank and has no warning to the Lie Locust family.

The reason why Zhou You did not wear the Armor of the Linlong Dragon: That thing is not breathable and uncomfortable to wear.

In the past, I was afraid of being unsociable in the academy where all monsters were all monsters. Now there is no need. I am a person with high-level insects and can be a little arrogant. As for possible plots and assassinations, the trump card of matrix is ​​in hand, and the Yutan in front of me is now "low protection".

Zhou You was busy squatting, standing, and busying himself, stacking all the data he prepared, drawing reports, and carved insect models on the desk.

Zhou You: "Sir, then our agreement can move to the second step. Thank you very much for your support. The matters about the equivalent returns of cooperation should be put on the agenda."

Yu Tan was looking at Zhou You's body, and after a while he reacted, he nodded.

But at this moment, she first asked: "Will your contract lead to insectization?"

Zhou You looked at these dark eyes. Behind these eyes was a complex wing. Although this joyful tale has always kept Zhou You in a mess, his eyes at this moment made Zhou You feel soft.

In the eyes of the superior nobles of Yan Jingxing, the most important thing that Linlong deserves attention is that the so-called "brain wave control" does not affect the advantages of the human host! So can this advantage be copied to the control of other strategic insects?

In fact, judging from the situation of the Linlong Gu itself, Yutan did not snatch it and deducted it. Because it has too many "shorts". It also requires various human intervention to operate, and it is not as convenient as the orthodox Gu worm. The only advantage is that the person who controls the strategic Gu worm will not change his appearance.

When Zhou You heard this question, he looked helpless and embarrassed, and Yutan already knew the answer.

In this slightly sad atmosphere.

Zhou You defaulted: "Yes, Linlong's situation is special."

Zhou You didn't lie - Linlong's current situation is very rare: from basic growth to the present, it has been artificially interfered with, and there are detailed records of changes in each organization.

How is the Linlong electric conduction structure formed under current input, how does muscles grow according to the support of explant bones, and how is the internal temperature regulation control system generated step by step? These raw data are the most valuable.

If it is a complete body insect that has evolved to be very "high-end", Zhouyou has no initial data, and even if he gets the sample, he has no way to start.

How does the internal electrical conduction and neural control go from simple to complex? Without basic data and random stimulation, more complex chaos will appear inside.

Because these nobles wanted to control these powerful combat power, they did not hesitate to transform into insects. Zhouyou could not give them the control method, so they were naturally unable to change the outcome of their transform into insects.

As for the special nature of the Linlong! That's right, because its special nature lies in its "primitiveness". Now it is stimulated to develop to the current model. There are too many processes for human interference in this "incomplete" automatic growth process.

...

The lord got a definite answer from Zhouyou, nodded, and did not ask again.

She clapped her hands, and the metal gloves made a crisp metal collision sound. The two servants behind her brought a carved solid wood table, and the butler on the side spread out the three gilded scroll maps and spread them on the table.

This set of high-precision maps should be jointly surveyed and mapped by high-altitude balloons or a large number of aircraft, which is obviously far beyond the technological capabilities of this planet. However, there are so many black box technologies on this planet, and there is no shortage of an advanced map.

She sat on the bench brought by the servant, stretched out the knight's armor with obvious metallic luster and knocked on the table. The master of Huangzi City began the arrangement in a formulaic tone: "Now, I will give you three choices. First, do it under my hands..."

She pointed her finger at a point in the western territory of the Feather-Winged Locust family. It means to help their family manage a port in the western region, which is to be a retainer in the inner circle.

"Second, go to the north to operate agricultural and minerals."

Her finger pointed to the north of the territory. Since the worms descended into this world, human civilization has left a large amount of territories in the north. As the lord of developed coastal areas, it is necessary to set up colonial governors in these areas to provide taxes for the central circle finance and provide raw materials for coastal commercial areas.

"Third, go to the south to drive the fierce locusts, breaking the waves and breaking the clouds."

She pointed to the south, with a large number of islands in the central waters of the word "八". Although the Flying Locust family was loyal to the Golden Beetle family, it was impossible to rebel publicly, but it did not mean that they could not conflict with other forces of the same level. The Flying Locust family tried to take charge of the southern waterway and had a feud with the Floating Mica family.

Accepting the appointment of the Feather-Winged Locust family, confronting the Floating Mica family on this Xiahong Island, where the spheres of influence are intertwined.

Of course, according to the concept of this world, this kind of exodus is no longer a retainer of the feathered locust, but a vassal who was granted the title of the scattered soil.

Lord Yutan finished his explanation and pushed three maps in front of Zhou You, indicating that it was time to choose.

Zhou You thought about it and found that it seemed that none of these three had any crucial elements of choice.

First, be a retainer in its inner circle. Zhou You was moved at the first time, staying here, and then following the relationship line to investigate the upper class, how safe it is.

The flaw is that power will be greatly limited - but Zhou You doesn't care: after all, he is here to investigate the causes of civilization changes, and he is not here to seize power.

Second, play farming in the north. Continuously attract people, build systems, and then technically recruit personnel to upgrade technology, and develop the special technology of this planet based on Linlong.

The flaw is that farming takes a long time - Zhouyou (fork hips): "I am willful. After fifteen years, I won't leave. What can you do with me? At worst, you can block my matrix. I can use local technology directly. It's okay to be more difficult or harder."

As for the third article, if you have a territory on the sea in the south, you can get assistance from the winged locusts, and the well-connected geography here is the intersection of commercial services.

The flaw is that the risk of war is very high - Zhou You is at the forefront of war: war? It seems like I am afraid.

It doesn’t matter if the world tour is going to go, but you still have to tear two and choose one. A conscience probe on the high dimension is being selected.
