Wasteland Development Diary

Zhou Yi's words caused the bio-mechanical doctor's waveform to fluctuate.

Da Vinci's mechanical arms slowly twisted: "Your idea has no problems in terms of physiological structure and mechanism. The Victory Snakes that migrate near the hospital do not refuse to exchange labor for resources."

"For them, the most important thing is to have a stable and safe settlement to smoothly reproduce the next generation, which is also the instinct of social creatures. They are very satisfied here and appear relaxed."

"In injured or hungry states, as well as during combat, Victory Snakes secrete a large number of hormones, which shield pain and cause them to become frenzied. Under normal circumstances, although they are not docile, they are still normal creatures with rationality and intelligence."

"The biggest problem in the plan you described is communication."

Victory Snakes communicate with each other by releasing pheromones, and their internal communication is like an encrypted chat room, making it difficult for the outside world to talk to them.

As a bio-mechanical doctor, Da Vinci purchased special pheromones and installed corresponding programs to communicate with the Victory Snakes.

Even if ordinary people hold pheromones, it is difficult to accurately express their meaning using this information carrier, and reading the Victory Snakes' crisscrossing pheromones is even more difficult.

Zhou Yi was originally worried that the Victory Snakes, after all, are C-level creatures and a group of hundreds of individuals, might not be willing to work for him.

Unexpectedly, there were no obstacles in this regard.

Communication was the easiest for him.

"I'll try it."

Zhou Yi gently touched the assistant recommended by Da Vinci, a Victory Snake with a small horn on its nose.

The outer skin felt cold and hard, like a block of iron.

Although Victory Snakes are called snakes, they are closer to metal or stone in other aspects besides having long bodies.

Zhou Yi looked at Hornhead, which looked like a real-life 3D snake made of black metal polyhedra. It had only one eye on its symmetrical spherical head, with a ring-shaped silver-white pupil inside.

Living in the Dead Sea for a long time, the surface of the Victory Snake's body adsorbed a large amount of soot and amber, forming this solid shell.

In group battles, they connect with each other in a tenon-and-mortise manner, attacking the enemy together in life and death, which gradually made them a fierce species with a small reputation in the Dead Sea.

Zhou Yi input energy into the Victory Snake he touched.

……

He said silently in his heart: "Can you hear me?"

A response immediately sounded in his mind.

"You, how did you do it? Your hand can talk to me? No wonder you are Doctor Da Vinci's boss..."

The pupil in the Victory Snake's single eye contracted into a small dot.

Zhou Yi said: "This is not important. Hornhead, if I want to talk to you..."

After listening, Hornhead replied: "Communication between Victory Snakes is simple, because we don't have one-on-one communication. Everyone can smell the released odor. In Doctor Da Vinci's words, the diffusion of pheromones is uniform."

"You are Doctor Da Vinci's boss and our benefactor. Just tell us what you want us to do? If anyone offends you, we will deal with them! That's what we are good at!"

Hornhead said imposingly.

Zhou Yi had a general idea after talking with it for a while.

Flesh and blood life cannot establish a universal communication module (such as text information and voice) like bio-mechanical life, but they also have their own advantages, that is, they are more receptive to change and adapt to the environment.

If you ask the agricultural machinery brothers to fight, they will probably only aim their guns at you and say why don't you go? We are just agricultural machinery.

But if you change to this group of Victory Snakes, Zhou Yi hasn't even spoken yet, and they will say who do you want us to fight!

Since it is impossible to demand precision, let them handle it flexibly.

Anyway, the focus is on transporting goods or people.

Da Vinci quickly reached a consensus with the Victory Snakes.

"Chairman, the Victory Snake group on Snake Island has only one request for our company's cooperation invitation."

"They hope to regularly obtain some mushrooms."

Zhou Yi immediately came back to his senses: "Sage Mushrooms?"

"Exactly."

A slowly changing waveform appeared on Da Vinci's long face: "As a doctor, I have always advised them not to continue using Sage Mushrooms, as long-term use may cause some mental dependence or even addiction."

"But I also admit that after the Victory Snakes eat Sage Mushrooms, their emotions become more stable and rational, and they can come up with more thoughts, which is beneficial to the order of the entire group. If the intake is controlled, according to existing examples, it does have benefits for them."

Zhou Yi didn't think so much.

Since Sage Mushrooms are useful to them, let them eat them first, and then find a solution if subsequent problems arise.

"No problem."

Zhou Yi said: "You decide on the quantitative aspect."

"Yes, Chairman."

……

After receiving the desired promise, the Victory Snakes immediately took action.

One black snake after another gathered on the edge of the Dead Sea.

They first watched the nearby small reinforced ship, which was also their template.

Then the first batch of Victory Snakes straightened their bodies and lay flat on the ground, forming the bottom structure like parallel long wooden strips. Each Victory Snake held a tail in its head, achieving a linear connection with each other, and then they began to layer upon layer, crisscrossing each other, and soon built a black ship.

The shape is similar to the reinforced ship, but it is longer.

Hornhead propped up its round head, looked at Zhou Yi with its single eye, and said through telepathy: "Chairman, everyone has entered the ship state, which is not difficult. In the past, everyone had experience in building fortresses."

Zhou Yi looked at the strange black ship in front of him.

If it weren't for the Victory Snakes, it would look like a stone ship made of a large number of black bricks and spherical stones, showing a strange low-pixel feel throughout, as if an item in the game had strayed into the real world.

This ship slowly sailed in the Dead Sea.

The newest novel is first published at Six Nine Book Bar!

At first, it was a bit uncoordinated, with some pulling up and down, and the whole ship frequently showed out-of-sync bow and stern and swaying from side to side.

It looked like a wild ship, adapting to its body for the first time in the water.

However, this clumsy navigation quickly became flexible with the guidance and teaching of the nearby reinforced ship.

The black ship shuttled back and forth in the foggy Dead Sea, turning flexibly from side to side, and even diving under the Dead Sea and emerging again.

The Victory Snakes had a high degree of coordination, and it could be seen that they had similar cooperative experience before.

Hornhead said: "Chairman, it is not difficult to do this, just floating on the Dead Sea. Transporting things is also a small problem. If Maria and Doctor Da Vinci need medicine, we can get it for them!"

"If we encounter suspicious enemies along the way, everyone can directly start a war, use [Poison Break] to carry out a concentrated attack, and besiege them in combat form! We are very strong in combat!"

Zhou Yi touched his chin. If a ship suddenly started spraying venom, opened one eye after another, and then turned into many black snakes besieging, that scene would be really good.

Then there was the naming session.

For the sake of easy naming, Zhou Yi gave the black ship composed of Victory Snakes a classic name "Black Pearl".

From then on, the Black Pearl began to sail on the nearby Dead Sea.

……

In addition to the successful trial of the Black Pearl, the return of the agricultural machinery brothers also overjoyed Zhou Yi.

Iron Horse replaced the tires and headlights, and also installed an antenna-like WIFI device. The originally dropped "Dongfanghong" on the front of the car was also restored to cast copper Chinese characters, which looked more textured.

"Chairman, we are back."

Iron Horse said as soon as he came back: "I was shocked when the repair list came out this time. The engine problem was expected, and the light-printed structure also had a short circuit and local high-temperature scorching..."

"If it is not replaced, it may be further damaged until the consciousness is comatose. It's just that the inspection and repair prices are getting more and more expensive, and various things are rising due to the war near Recursive City."

"After replacing these things, there is a 3-year quality guarantee and free repair, and I can rest assured to continue working hard!"

"I owe you! 1200 light seeds, I will pay it back with work. As long as you don't drive our brothers away, we will continue to do it."

Zhou Yi patted its hood: "It's good that you are okay."

Then he introduced the agricultural consultant Zheng Tao to the agricultural machinery brothers.

Iron Horse was very happy.

"This aspect is indeed our weakness. We are experts in farming, but we don't know how to sell grain. It would be a pity if the grain cannot be sold to the places that need them."

……

Four days later.

Zhou Yi received a piece of heavy news.

Recursive City found a huge alien floating on the sea about 1700 kilometers southeast of Emerald City, and the alien had a fierce battle with several warships.

The fighting party was also an acquaintance.

It was the Seventh Fleet of the Dead Sea Knights.

Zhou Yi decided to send someone to observe the situation on the spot first.
