After sorting out the development ideas, Chu Jungui started to implement it. He first transformed the two existing Arks and installed a new generation of power furnaces. One was equipped with four parallel harvesters and a large organic matter separator.
The other one has a retractable large-scale excavation drill bit on each side of the front and eight large-scale refining furnaces.
The main structure of the Ark was ready-made, so the transformation work took less than a day in total. Two huge Arks and dozens of tanks drove away from Base 2 and headed for the mountainous area where the beast tide appeared.
The Ark's maneuverability is very strong. It only took 2 hours to cover a complex road section of hundreds of kilometers. This was to protect the chariots. Once they entered the edge of the mountainous area, the two Arks became one behind the other.
Ahead is the Ark equipped with a harvester. Along the way, whether it is a double-leaf tree, an unknown shrub, or a purple-leaf grass, everything has been scooped up by the roots, crushed, and sent to the large organic matter separator in the cabin. In order to
Not to waste resources, it even set the scope of logging to 50 centimeters underground, which means that even the mud was dug out.
Mud and other useless materials are automatically separated and then sprayed out from the rear of the ark.
The Ark behind followed the Ark ahead in the road opened by the Ark in front, and three drill bits began to dig the soil at the same time. The huge drill bit directly broke all the soil and rocks, input them into the refining furnace behind, and started refining on the spot.
The terrain was originally gradually upward, but the Ark behind had to dig out a slowly upward slope, and all the excavated earth was smelted on the spot.
In this way, the two Arks slowly moved forward, forcibly opening a relatively flat road 30 meters wide in the mountainous area. The Arks were not very fast and could only move a few kilometers per hour, which was about the same speed as a person walking. This was to
Taking care of the processing capacity of the organic matter separator and refining furnace, if you are not afraid of wasting materials, the forward speed can be increased several times.
But even at this speed, it is quite terrifying over time, because the two Arks do not need to stop at all.
After about 2 hours of advancement, a team of heavy-duty trucks arrived from the base and transported back the organic raw materials, basic metals, inorganic raw materials, etc. processed by the two Arks.
Organic raw materials will be turned into bioexplosives, power furnace fuel, and raw materials for manufacturing composite materials. Needless to say, the use of basic metals, inorganic raw materials are mostly used to produce various building materials, starships, and ground machinery
The basic structure still has a small amount of residue, and there are also some rare elements in it, which will be further refined after technological breakthroughs.
After the transport convoy returned, it also brought back images and various data of the two Ark vehicles advancing in the mountainous area. Chu Jungui was currently making final designs and modifications to the brand new Type II Ark.
The second-type ark was much larger in size and was originally intended for transportation between two bases. However, Chu Jungui modified the design several times and the size became larger and larger. Finally, it became a behemoth with a width of 70 meters and a length of 300 meters.
Chu Jungui discovered that the larger the platform, the stronger the overall performance. After the final size was finalized, Chu Jungui simply put a full 10 power furnaces on the Type 2 Ark. With a terrifying power of 5 million kilowatts, even the first
Pigs can also go to heaven. Let alone going to heaven, interstellar travel is not a problem.
The basic type 2 ark was originally used to transport supplies and personnel, and could also serve as a mobile fort. After receiving the data from the two arks that had already driven into the mountainous area, Chu Jungui quickly completed the new design.
The new design is to equip the Type 2 Ark with a harvester and an excavation drill at the same time, and then add an organic matter separator and a refining furnace. In this way, the Type 2 Ark integrates felling wood, digging grass, quarrying, and filling pits and building roads. It is a mountainous area.
The only choice for advancement.
As soon as the design drawings were completed, Chu Jungui directly started building the Type 2 resource-gathering Ark. The communication between the two bases was not so urgent for the time being, and they would first build something big that could open a road in the mountainous area.
Chu Jungui's plan is to forcibly open a road in the mountainous area for the heavy troops to advance, and push them directly to the lair of the war beasts. This kind of plowing advancement will basically completely anger the native creatures of the planet, thus destroying the planet.
The beast tide is drawn out.
The last S-level beast tide had just been wiped out, and Chu Jungui believed that the war beasts would not be able to recover so easily. The combination of the Ark and the Chariot was not a problem against the B-level beast tide, and even A-level beasts could be withdrawn.
After the production tasks were arranged, the completion time was soon expected. The initial time given was 30 hours, and then slowly shortened.
Some important components of the new Ark are already being produced in advance, such as power tires and suspension devices, gravity engines, etc. This greatly saves subsequent construction time.
After finishing all this work, two hours passed before I knew it, and a new batch of transport convoys returned from the mountainous area. Hundreds of heavy-duty trucks transported nearly 10,000 tons of various raw materials, and then immediately turned back without rest.
Ark's production of raw materials is so fast that if it only takes two hours, the transport fleet will not be able to finish the shipment.
Seeing the harvested raw materials, Chu Jungui silently added a plan to build a second-type ark. The experimental body just wanted to speed up the advancement in the mountainous area, not for more materials at all.
In the mountains and forests, wild beasts and insects of all sizes are running away in panic. There are constant roars in the distance, and the earth is shaking. You can see tall double-leaf trees falling down one after another, raising pieces of dust.
On the top of an ancient tree, a messenger looked at the ark in the distance with only a little of its top exposed, hovered for a while, and then fluttered away.
Deep in the mountainous area, a small valley surrounded by mountains is filled with black mist.
The valley is not big, only a hundred meters in diameter, and the bottom of the valley is completely covered in ink mist. There are countless caves on the surrounding hillsides, some large and some small, densely packed.
The messenger flew over the valley, projecting a scene of the ark advancing through the mountains.
Dozens of eyes floated up from the depths of the black mist. While looking at the information brought back by the messenger, a terrain map was projected. The terrain map clearly showed Base No. 2, which also included the edge of the mountainous area.
The black mist absorbed the information, and a short but straight line appeared on the terrain map, which was obviously the Ark's route.
A cloud of black mist poured out of a cave on the hillside, and many eyes looked a little anxious, saying: "Great Brother Dao, those damn humanoid reptiles are obviously targeting us! Those damn low-level multicellular creatures, they...
…”
The black mist that filled the entire valley surged, and hundreds of eyes appeared, impatiently saying: "Okay, scolding them once a day is enough. You have to use your time on the right path. Why don't you say a few more adjectives?"
It will increase your cell count. Don't worry about them for now, they will take at least several months to get here. With this time, we can gather a larger army of servants and give them a fatal blow."
The Xiaowu tribe retreated into the cave.
Countless eyes sank into the black mist again, and the black mist gradually stopped fluctuating.
During this period of time, the transport convoy returned to the base full of supplies. Looking at the heavy-duty trucks one after another, Chu Jungui felt that with such a huge supply of supplies, it seemed that he could do something big.
