Chapter 21 Fleet Construction

"Come on! Put that over here!"

The cry of the virtual people, the roar of metal, echoed in the vast square.

Beneath the dusty grey sky, giant mechanical devices were hoisting metal after metal, which was pieced together by a multitude of Void workers.

Is this how they make warships?

This is the 'construction square'. More than 60 days and nights have passed since the general said he would re-invade the pom-poms.

It is located at a pier in the city where Lin originally landed. There is a rare wide open space in a dense city. All kinds of machinery and a large number of virtual people come and go back and forth here. Most of them carry construction materials. Bring them together and piece together into something like a castle.

a battleship.

However, this battleship is a semi-finished product. The body of several hundred meters is covered with a metal shelf. Many virtual people go up and down on this shelf, carrying out the combination of battleships.

And crawling in front of the shelf, there are also some huge mechas. Lin found that they included the mechas they saw when they attacked the pom-poms before, but they were used to carry heavy objects.

The warships of the virtual people are not made out of thin air, but are transformed from a previous warship used for sailing into a warship in the void. It seems that this trend is happening all over the world now.

Voidlings used to have 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.

How long will this warship be built? The pom poms flew through the air, observing this lively construction square from the sky.

What is built here is just one warship, and other warships are built together in other cities or countries, mainly because of the lack of open space. Usually the city floor is filled with buildings, leaving no open space.

Add to that building this kind of thing, and there's usually a lot of imaginary opposition.

The pom poms flew towards the exit of the construction plaza, and a large number of Voidlings could be seen gathered at the guarded entrance, chanting and protesting. Dissatisfied with the construction of this battleship.

This is mainly because it is said that because of the construction of warships, a thing called 'tax' has been increased, which has led to a lot of false people's opinions, but Lin is surprised that they can leave their jobs and run here to protest.

The general virtual people have almost no time to relax.

There are also some protesting virtual democrats who think that building warships is too much, and it will attract alien invasions or something.

but. In addition to the protesting false people, there are other false people mixed in.

"Is it said that the first attack failed?" "Please tell us about the failure in detail!" "What exactly made the first colonization fail? Is it an alien civilization? Their technology is better than ours. Still tall? What kind of weapons do they use? How many are they?"

A few phantoms mixed in with the protesters kept asking a lot of questions to the guards guarding the door, but these phantoms were not resting because that was their job.

This group of phantoms are called 'reporters', and they specialize in finding many interesting events and publishing them as 'news'. There are quite a few phantoms who like to watch news. News can be said to be very influential. Once it appears, it will spread throughout the country and even the whole world.

But how on earth did these reporters know about their defeat at the pom-pom?

Of course Lynn told them.

The general had been doing his best to prevent the spread of this news. If this kind of news spread, there would be countless virtual people who would oppose the construction of the battleship.

Despite living in this environment, these phantoms are still timid and afraid of change. They are afraid of war, they just want to maintain their present life.

Lin found that most of the imaginary people have this kind of emotion, and some of them are tired of the current situation and look forward to war and the end of the world, but there are relatively few such imaginary people.

"Get out of the way! Otherwise I'll shoot!" A Void soldier standing at the door raised his weapon and aimed at the reporter in front.

However, these reporters did not seem to be afraid of death. They held a long stick for recording and kept saying to the soldiers: "You are planning to shoot now, does that mean you don't want to tell the truth? Does it mean that you want to threaten us to leave? Does it mean that the failure was real?"

Seeing this, the guard seemed to be extremely angry. It took out a small square and asked, "Can I shoot?"

"Don't shoot, I'll explain to them myself."

"General!" The guard seemed quite surprised that the general's voice came out of the small square.

then. The guards here had no choice but to keep their mouths shut, looking at the group of reporters who were asking crazy questions with angry expressions, waiting for the general's arrival...

Meanwhile, on the other side.

This is the research institute underground in the radiation zone, and the virtual people gathered in front of the wall to observe the small starfish as usual.

'Boom! ' under a loud bang. One of Starfish's tentacles slammed into the wall, and large cracks appeared on the transparent wall.

Recently, this little starfish has become more and more restless, Lin found that it has been able to resist the high temperature, and it seems that it has grown quite fast recently.

It's not without reason that it suddenly grew so fast, and it probably knows that it has managed to attract 'rescue' itself.

"Lock it up!" the manager hurriedly called.

‘Crack! ' I saw five huge mechanical arms stretched out from the roof, they grabbed the five tentacles of the starfish at the same time, and pressed the starfish firmly to the ground...

"Gu..." Starfish was still twisting and struggling, and the manager immediately said: "Hurry up and increase your strength! Hold it down safely!"

The robotic arm began to increase its strength and slowly suppressed the struggling starfish. Lin felt that the robotic arm seemed to be moving hydraulically, and the force was strong enough to press the starfish with a diameter of more than 30 meters to the ground.

This is also the plan of the virtual 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 find ways to control its growth.

The virtual people use various 'hormones' and drugs to control the growth of farmed organisms, so they think this starfish can also be controlled.

But it had to be restrained first, so they trapped it with a robotic arm before arming it.

They will do this, mainly because according to hundreds of years of research, this starfish has a very strong vitality. As long as it is not placed under high temperature, it does not matter how to torture it.

It doesn't feel good that the future of the race depends entirely on an uncontrolled creature.

Therefore, this group of virtual people plans to try their best to control this creature.

These robotic arms were originally used to subdue the starfish. According to the growth of the starfish, they gradually increased the size of the robotic arms, and the next thing was created by them now.

After completely pressing the starfish, 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 metals.

They surrounded the starfish and began to assemble these metals on the starfish.

Now the starfish doesn't struggle much, and the virtual people's movements are quite fast. These metal parts that have been tested will automatically fit together as long as they are placed in the correct position.

During the assembly process, when the upper part is assembled, the robotic arm will slowly lift the starfish, allowing the virtual people to assemble the lower part.

In the end, they were completely fitted with this metal kit on the entire starfish, just like assembling a pair of armor for the starfish, and it was a bit like they turned a starfish into a metal starfish.

The armor is located where the worms come out, and there are openings where the starfish excretes. In addition, it is almost completely sealed. There are joints on the tentacles, which can allow the starfish to move, but the virtual people can also remotely control the armor. Activities, in fact, this armor is a remote-controlled machine, and those openings can also be closed.

After discussing for so long, they actually came up with this kind of thing... Looking at the starfish with the armor on, Lin felt that this thing felt quite impractical...

This is mainly used to control the activity of the starfish, control its feeding, movement, everything, and also suppress its growth rate.

Ordinary creatures will usually grow small or deformed if they are pressed by a lot of clothing, but the main method of suppressing the virtual people is to develop some drugs.

They want to mix these drugs into their food for the starfish to eat.

Lin feels that their success rate may be negligibly low...

After this, several days and nights passed.

Starfish unexpectedly had no problem with the armor on its body, it didn't struggle to get it off, and it also did a very special thing.

It begins to synthesize teleporters within its body.

Lynn's miniature soldier observes this process in the jelly-like body of the little starfish.

The synthesis process is a wonderful process of slowly hardening with those jelly-like substances, first forming a ball, and then coating the outer layer with a skin-like substance.

It feels like a plant called an 'onion'.

Speaking of which, Lin had never seen this plant called an onion, she only knew it in her thoughts.

The most important thing is that each 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 inside, causing the transmitter to slowly increase the temperature, and at the same time change some strange-shaped structures inside.

It's as if it's creating a creature, but it's quite fast.

Although it has been able to resist high temperature, the body of the starfish is still in an extremely low temperature environment, and the temperature of this newly created thing is getting higher and higher, and at the end, an object like a heart is formed.

And Lin, almost all of its composition was recorded. (To be continued. If you like this work, you are welcome to come to the starting point () to vote for recommendation and monthly tickets. Your support is my biggest motivation. Mobile users, please read it.)
