Chapter 272 Experiment
The meteorites were transported to Katyusha's camp, but they had to hoist them all up to the study room to divide them. After all, they couldn't use too large meteorites for the test. It took half an hour to get all the meteorites to the study room and transport them. The team also climbed up to the bookstore together. Although the transport team was all men, Seripova still arranged for a dozen bookstores for them to rest. They did not need to participate in the next experimental operation. They mainly waited for the results.
Seripova arranged for people to cut the meteorites. After all the meteorites were cut, she took a few meteorites with her men and went down to the ground. She brought equipment and weapons to the direction of the Mao Xiong Kingdom base. She ordered a few of her men to take the small meteorites with them. Dots of meteorites were tied to a two-meter-long iron rod, and then the iron rod was inserted directly into the ground. In this way, an iron rod was inserted every ten meters, and it was inserted into a circle with the giant tree as the center. Of course, because I Her camp was also within the circle, and Seripova was worried that the roots of the giant tree would really grow upward from the ground, so she left a large gap in the circle.
While inserting iron rods, monitor equipment is installed at the same time. These monitoring equipment are the latest wireless monitoring equipment developed by scientists from Mao Xiong Country. The materials are also made of the latest super cold-resistant materials. At ultra-low temperatures of more than 100 degrees Celsius, it is now impossible to detect , these devices can operate normally.
After all the preparations were done, Seripova took her men back to the camp. They checked the surveillance pictures in the surveillance library. There were more than fifty surveillance pictures in total. Fortunately, there was no problem with any of them, and they could all see clearly on the monitor. The picture also made her feel relieved.
Next, all she has to do is wait for the results and see if the roots of the giant tree will grow as expected. If not, Seripova feels that there will be no future for the Bear Country. ✤✲✷
Instead of waiting in the monitoring room, Seripova came to a relatively large study room, which was her residence. After pushing the door in, she could see that the inside was similar to an ordinary bedroom, but there were not so many furniture and lights. It’s lighting. The power sources used in the camp are the latest nuclear batteries exchanged from the Far New Base. The Mao Xiong Country deserves to have inherited a super rich heritage from the Soviet Union. Their scientists reversely derived the principles of batteries from nuclear batteries. In addition to I just exchanged some nuclear batteries at the Far New Base, and they later produced them themselves.
The lights in the house are not that bright. This is because the outside world is a forest, and there are many mutant beasts in the forest. In order not to attract the attention of mutant beasts due to lamp problems, the lights in the camp are not turned on so brightly. There are also Each treehouse has no windows.
She did not take off her clothes. She just took off her shoes and got directly into the special sleeping bag on the bed. This special sleeping bag can protect the people inside from freezing to death at temperatures of more than 100 degrees below zero. It can be said that it is a must for military personnel when going out. Prepare items.
Not long after the team transporting the meteorite arrived at the camp, all the roots of the giant tree reacted. The meteorite exudes a magnetic field all the time. If no tools are used to isolate the meteorite, the magnetic field fluctuations of the meteorite can easily be detected by mutant beasts. I realized that ordinary mutated plants cannot sense this kind of magnetic field, but this giant tree is an exception. Its sensing range for meteorites is hundreds of kilometers away. Now it is still absorbing most of the tree roots. In addition to the meteorite under it, a part of the tree roots branched out in the direction where the meteorite's magnetic field was felt.
Scientists from the Bear Country know that meteorites have this kind of magnetic field. Just like when the transport troops transported the meteorites to the camp of the Katyusha troops, they also used tools to isolate the meteorites. However, there were no isolation boxes when transporting the meteorites. After all, the isolation boxes are made into carriages, so when the meteorite was hoisted up to the tree house, it was sensed by the giant tree.
The roots of the giant tree that spread around slowly grew in the direction of the camp. However, after Seripova brought the meteorite down to the camp, the roots grew in the direction of sensing the meteorite. Fortunately, the giant tree's roots Although the root growth rate is very fast, it can only reach about ten meters in a day at most. Even if the giant tree is abnormal, it still has to follow the characteristics of some plants, that is, it does not act how it wants like animals. ɱ
However, it can grow ten meters a day, which is very fast. Not long after Shelipova fell asleep, tree roots broke out of the ground and headed towards the meteorite hanging in the air two meters above the ground. She looked like a thief. It's like stealing something, except that it grows hands from the ground and slowly approaches the meteorite.
"Sir, there is something unusual."
Seripova felt that she had just fallen asleep. Not long after, she heard the call of her men. She could only get up from the bed, put on her shoes, and walked out of the house. As she walked, she asked, "What happened?"
The subordinate responded respectfully, "Those roots are coming out of the ground."
Entering the surveillance treehouse, Seripova saw Kanter, the captain of the transportation team, also looking at the surveillance screen. She saw that the other party's face was a little happy, and she felt relieved. She knew that the situation should be imagined by the leaders above. walking in the direction.
Sure enough, Seripova looked at the surveillance screen carefully and could clearly see that the tree roots were growing towards the meteorite, but their speed was not very fast. They should still follow the rule of growing ten meters a day. She said to Kanter, "Kan. Captain, it seems that your work will be very heavy in the future.”
"Haha, it's okay. Your job is not easy either." Kant saw that the meteorite was so attractive to the roots of the giant tree. He knew that at least the base would not be invaded by these roots. As a commander in the army, he knew how abnormal this giant tree was. Now that he saw that it could be attracted by the meteorite, it would be much easier to deal with it. There was no need to destroy it. Just control its growth direction. We would always find a way to deal with it in the future.
"Yeah." Shelipova carefully observed the growth direction of the roots again. She actually had some doubts in her heart. These roots should be able to sense the existence of meteorites, which is similar to mutant beasts, but how large is its sensing range? She wanted to test it.
Shelipova told Kant about her idea, and he agreed immediately. After all, only by understanding more about the giant tree can we have more trump cards to deal with it in the future.
Without wasting time, Shelipova led her men down the tree house. They collected all the meteorites and put them in the isolation box. Then they took out one of the smaller meteorites. Shelipova led a few people and carried the meteorite away from the base. Their speed was not fast, just like normal walking. This was because they still had to fight with the mutant beasts attracted by the meteorites. Fortunately, the meteorites were relatively small and only attracted the mutant beasts near where they were walking.
They walked for about a kilometer. Shelipova took out the walkie-talkie, pressed the switch and said, "Captain Kant, please reply if you get it. Can you see the direction of the growth of the tree roots?"
"Get it. When you were walking, the growth direction of the tree roots changed. They went in the direction you were going. You can come back." Kant's voice came from the walkie-talkie.
"Okay, got it."
More than ten minutes later, Shelipova returned to the camp and put the meteorite back into the isolation box. She and Kant briefly discussed the future actions in a tree house. Of course, the most important thing is that they have to report the situation to their superiors.
The two quickly reported the situation here to their superiors. The superiors asked them to wait for half an hour. The think tank in the base will hold a meeting to come up with an effective action plan. Now that they know that tree roots have such a great attraction to meteorites, how can their think tanks not think of a good way to deal with giant trees?
Half an hour later, the think tank of the base directly contacted Shelipova and told her what she should do every day and what she should pay attention to. After saying a lot of things, Shelipova wrote down everything the experts said with a pen.
As for the captain of the transport team, Kant, he has nothing to do now. He was asked to take his team members back to the base. There are still so many meteorites in Shelipova's camp. Only when these meteorites are used up will he be asked to transport some to the camp. Kant and his team members bid farewell to the camp of the Katyusha troops. Kant and his team members were very disappointed. In fact, they hoped to stay. You know, the Katyusha special forces are the most elite special forces in the Bear Country. Each female soldier in it is not only very strong, but also, I don't know if it's because of evolution, the appearance and figure of each female soldier in it can be rated as the top ten beauties in the Bear Country before the end of the world.
After Kant and the men left, Shelipova held a cadre meeting, mainly to assign the next tasks.
The method given above is actually very simple, just like using meteorites to guide the growth direction of the roots of the giant tree not far in front of them. In this way, in addition to cleaning up the mutant beasts near the camp, their daily work is mainly to use meteorites to guide the growth of the roots. However, although this work is simple, the roots can only grow ten meters a day. But when they take out the meteorites without an isolation box, they have to guard against the mutant beasts attracted by the meteorites. That is, two teams must act together every day, one team guides the growth direction of the roots, and there must be a lot of meteorites, otherwise the roots cannot be attracted. In this way, Shelipova has to arrange her subordinates, and set up a reserve team just in case, so that even if there is an accident, they can handle it.
Fortunately, the total number of Katyusha Special Forces is 300 people here, otherwise Shelipova can only ask for help from the base because of insufficient numbers. Of course, she will not do this unless it is absolutely necessary. After all, the daily pressure on the base is greater than theirs.
In this way, Shelipova quickly assigned tasks to each team, and the crisis in the Bear Country was temporarily resolved.
