Start with Mechanical Hunter

"I'm not convinced! Planting corn is obviously the most efficient. The Corn Master 3.0 blueprint I studied can increase corn yield by 1000%. Why don't you use mine!"

Although the group fight failed, the leader of the Corn Party, Maize Xiaofu, was still very dissatisfied. Looking at the Potato Master who was happily growing potatoes, he was full of envy and jealousy.

The one hundred acres of cultivated land in front of us is the result of the opponent's victory.

"Although the drawings you came up with are of a high level, the biggest feature of the deformed corn you studied is that there is a certain probability of physical deformation after eating it," Master Potato complained about his defeated opponent.

"Don't worry, we haven't seen the aliens yet, and we're already so deformed that we don't even recognize the aliens anymore."

"Brother Xiaofu, if you give me one or two pills that can improve the purity of my bloodline, I won't mind defecting to you," a member of the Potato Party said lazily.

"Yeah, aren't you the only second-level bloodline master here? Purifying bloodline is not an easy task," another member of the Potato Party said.

"Damn, I'm a plant mutation scholar, not an animal researcher," Maize Xiaofu said angrily.

"Then there's nothing we can do. How come the beards of this potato are growing out of it? Master Potato, is the recipe you researched reliable?" A player looked at his Mediterranean potatoes and asked blankly.

"Of course it's reliable, that's a blueprint produced by the system," Master Tudou touched his chin and directed a player who accepted the mission.

"You go to the main control warehouse and adjust the gravity parameters of our agricultural area to normal. I suspect that the potatoes grow indiscriminately, which is due to the effect of weightlessness."

"Is it okay to go? Can I get extra mission points?" The player squinted and said reluctantly.

"Add 10 points."

"Okay, Master, you are busy. I will convey your instructions." The player bent his waist, bowed his legs, and suddenly showed a dog-licking smile on his face, fully demonstrating what it means to be arrogant at the front and respectful at the back. .

Young players can pass from the agricultural cabin through the sleeping cabin, then go around from the sleeping cabin to the bridge, and then teleport through the bridge to reach the main control room of the frigate.

This road is about 10km.

The original name of the agricultural cabin should be the utility space, located at the stern of the ship. From here, you can see the light speed vector tail fin at the stern. This is an advanced hull component that regulates the waterway when traveling at the speed of light. After all, it is impossible to drive at the speed of light by turning the steering wheel. This involves complex spatial parameter adjustments.

The sleeping cabins were not originally called sleeping cabins, but should be called fire storage rooms. Each sleeping cabin is about the size of a basketball court, and now it has become a super jumble shop for players.

Most of the players were lying in bed, either playing cards or participating in the forum.

Only a few lucky ones can receive hull tasks, such as repairing ships and mechas on industrial ships, and growing potatoes like a potato master. The official task is called "Creating a hull ecosystem."

As the fourth natural disaster, the player's physique is very special. You can not poop, but you need to eat regularly. You can not pee, but you need to drink water regularly.

This kind of 'only in but not out' physique is very consistent with the positioning of the fourth natural disaster.

How to get food and water is one of the few topics that players have been discussing with great interest recently.

The bridge's anti-gravity engine is very effective. It directly makes it hang in the air, and then passes through various large modules of the hull, which is equivalent to walking on a small path. According to the maintenance technician among the players, this 'ejection technology' was originally supposed to be A kind of troop delivery technology that ejects mechanical troops through special channels to violently destroy enemy ships. This is also in line with the image of these ferocious Cybertron starships.

It's a pity that the mechanical life that filled the boss panel is gone, which makes the players feel a bit miserable.

The spaceship actually doesn't spawn monsters, it doesn't make sense.

While grumbling, the young player opened the system forum and prepared to complain.

Just when my balls were hurting, I suddenly glanced at a post, and my body suddenly trembled. The spaceship had completed a mission! ?

And get missions abroad! ! !

…

"Why hasn't that kid come back yet?" Master Potato waited and waited. When the potatoes sprouted on all sides, but before the gravity parameters were adjusted, each of the 'earth cubes' was still suspended in mid-air with no tendency to fall down. He was furious. , I thought to myself, do you still want the points?

As a result, in addition to the boy who had not returned for a long time, the 'spaceship farmers' under him also whispered to each other, and did not inform him of the landlord's thoughts at all. As soon as the seeds were lost, they ran away.

"Hey, hey, hey, what the hell are you doing? You're not doing the mission anymore?"

The landlord finally caught a runaway tenant and said angrily.

"Brother, stop digging potatoes. Brother, I want to do something more valuable and more missionary!" The tenant looked like he was trembling for his dream.

"Then what do you want to do?"

"I want to mine!"

"..."

The landlord was silent for a moment and said, "Are you out of your mind?"

"I'm not crazy. If you don't understand the forum, please don't stop me from queuing up to grab a spot."

Master Tudou then opened the forum, and was surprised to find that a post was highlighted on the Mecha Star page. He scanned it briefly, and then it dawned on him.

Mining is not the focus, mining with Mecha is the focus, and more importantly, when mining in the asteroid belt, there is a certain probability that you will find Star Thief monsters.

No wonder the players are so excited. You know, they haven't fought monsters for half a month. This is a completely different experience. In the Cyber ​​Testing Ground, if they don't fight monsters, monsters will come to them automatically; but in the universe In the starry sky, except for the novelty of the first few days, most of the rest of the time is very boring, otherwise there would be no players rushing to do things like wiping the deck.

And now, the combat mission is finally released! This group of players was so excited that they almost had ptsd.

Looking at the ‘tenants’ who had all run away, Master Potato looked at Xiaofu Maize silently and said:

"How about I give you half of the land and we farm together?"

"Deal!" A hint of joy flashed in Maize Xiaofu's eyes.

"Then you look at the artificial fields first, and I'll go out for a while."

"Where are you going?" Maize Xiaofu asked doubtfully.

"I'm going to see if I can grab a mining spot too."

"..."

Although four of the five starships lined up in a long queue, according to the artificial intelligence lady A, there were only 400 mining mechas sent out first. But the good news is, These 400 mechas are just the beginning. Once the ore is mined in the asteroid belt, more mechas will be produced and more players will become miners.

There were only 400 units, and the quotas were quickly allocated. The remaining players rarely complained, but gathered around the friends who had grabbed the quotas, squeezing their shoulders and backs, and cheering them up in various ways. Liver' that's it.

"Brother, there are only two ways for you to die now. Either you die of exhaustion in the mecha, or you get on the ship and are beaten to death by us. My personal suggestion is the first one."

"Brother, do you want to implant a 'workaholic' virtual personality? Work efficiency will be +150%, physical fitness will be temporarily +10, and intelligence will be temporarily -10. Anyway, you don't have to use your brain to mine."

"Sister, take this bottle of mecha lubricant. You can use it at critical moments."

"..."

As the light speed vector fins at the stern of the ship emitted a dazzling light, the five starships jumped out of the light speed state.

Light speed vector tail + jump engine, this is the standard configuration for the spacecraft to travel at the speed of light.

In front of the spacecraft, densely packed meteorites floated in the void, some as big as mountains, some as big as basketballs, and some with excessive metal content, giving people the impression of a copper mountain.

The distance from the star here is closer than that of the Split Star, and there is no atmosphere, so the light is very strong, and many meteorites even burn up. It feels like an enlarged and enhanced version of the radiation zone. Of course, nuclear radiation It's also radiation.

From the industrial ship, 400 meat mechanical armors coated with radiation protection layers were ejected. The Mech-Split Star, apart from other things, at least in terms of the skill points of radiation protection technology, not to mention the second-level civilization, even some third-level civilizations, It's not necessarily better than it.

Soon, players logged into the mechas, and some of them were shocked by the tens of millions of energy-level mechas.

Tens of millions of mechanical energy + tens of millions of biological energy, this mecha is so powerful!

Not only have the mechas been coated with anti-radiation coatings, but their peripherals have also been modified. Most of Du's high-tech mechas used to be humanoid, but now they look more like an upgraded version of a mechanical octopus. The main control center of the head and limbs have been modified. There is only one main body and dozens of water-cylinder-sized mechanical tentacles, including mechanical pliers, mechanical shovels, mechanical drill bits, and mechanical guillotines. The main body is also covered with mining hanging baskets. Counting them roughly, there are about every one of them. A mecha can carry 300 tons of ore.

"It's not all about mining, the most important thing is to clear the waterway."

On the top of the Scimitar, Gao Gong and Du Zhaodi looked at the four hundred players dispatched and explained.

This version of the star map from many years ago is indeed unreliable.

Although it is an asteroid belt, if it is a serious waterway, there will be automatic robots cleaning meteorites every year.

Otherwise, traveling at the speed of light, it would be just a matter of plunging into a meteorite. At most, the ship would be destroyed and everyone would be killed. If we were to plunge into some kind of miniature black hole, or some other dimension, we would really have no chance of survival or death. The entire universe would have shipwrecks every year. There are so many unlucky people who could encircle the entire asteroid belt. Among them, the most common cause of death is that the waterway has not been cleaned up.

The channel that Gao Gong is taking now is undoubtedly an abandoned channel.

There are two possibilities for abandonment. Either the forces that maintained the waterway ran away, or the forces that maintained the waterway were wiped out.

Senior engineers believe more in the second type.

Du Zhaodi's eyes flashed with countless industrial parameters, and she said: "To clean up this waterway within three months, we need at least 300,000 pure industrial mechas, and the materials for making these mechas include Many of them cannot be made on site other than extracting them from meteorites.”

The senior engineer's eyes fell on a small bright spot in the distance. It seemed to be a star, but it seemed much brighter than the other stars around it.

There is a saying that you have to run to death, but in the universe, if you see a star with your naked eyes and then try to run to that star, or if you run to the end of the universe, you may not be able to do it.

"Without guns or cannons, the enemy will make them for us."
