Chapter 705: Mermaid
Mermaids have different eyes from other creatures. Other creatures, such as humans, have white eyes and pupils, but mermaids have completely white eyes like pearls, which is indescribably weird. Mofang maliciously guessed that if he suddenly saw such a pair of eyes in the middle of the night, he would be scared to death. At this time, the pair of narrow white eyes were staring at the reconnaissance torpedo left and right. The flash did not have any effect on her eyes. The front lenses of the torpedo were still taking pictures. The flashing red light on the reconnaissance torpedo attracted the attention of the mermaid...
"Start the self-destruct program."
The reconnaissance torpedo began to self-decompose and destroy after making a sound. The program had been set long ago. The mermaid frowned and looked at the strange thing in her hand. She saw that this one-meter-long metal strange thing suddenly began to rust and break into residue at a very fast speed, as if what could be done in a few years was completed in just a few seconds. The original appearance was very smooth and delicate, with an indescribable feeling, but after a few seconds, it gradually turned into residue and fell. The mermaid stared at the rust on the palm of her hand for a while.
"Human language? Self-destruction? Such a strong aging spell."
The mermaid mistook the self-destruction setting for an aging spell, but could not find the spiritual power fluctuation to cast the spell. She gently shook her hands to get rid of the rusty residue, and looked out of the palace.
The Cube swung its tail and turned away to swim away. Now it knew who was behind the dead showman. As for the mermaid, the Cube dared to bet that the showman had absolutely no relationship with the mermaid, let alone the mermaid's child or relative. Not to mention the species, the appearance alone was hundreds of miles different. The level was almost the same as that of an ordinary fishman monster. There was no magic power or spells. The difference was that there was a shell in his hand that could control parasites. It was estimated that this kind of stuff lived in the upper half of this underwater mountain.
The three-meter-long shark swam straight into the distance and soon disappeared in the vast sea...
Less than three minutes after the magic cube left, waves rose on the sea surface. In the middle of the waves was a beautiful woman, with a fish tail below the waist waving in the sea water. Her all-white eyes looked in the direction where the magic cube disappeared and frowned. I don’t know what she found wrong.
Above the clouds, the mechanical bird quickly scanned and detected the mermaid who appeared on the sea surface and recorded data. Waves of energy waves flew towards the mermaid. What she never expected was that the detection waves were suddenly bounced off when they hit the mermaid, as if she had a layer of protective cover on her body.
The mermaid on the sea surface raised her head and looked at the location of the mechanical bird. Suddenly, the fish tail slapped violently and raised huge waves and flew straight up! Unlike human monks flying with swords, mermaids flying in the sky seem to swim in the sea! The tail flicked and stared at the mechanical bird quickly rushing into the sky. The magic cube, which had already run far away, was shocked. When will these fish be able to swim in the sky? The density is different!
"Chirp!"
The mechanical bird was startled and quickly flapped its wings to start the ducted fan engine to drill into the clouds. In order to avoid being caught up, it deliberately took a Z-shaped flight route. Just after leaving the original place, the mermaid appeared there with her tail swinging and stared at the mechanical bird. She did not chase the mechanical bird. Maybe she was not used to the Z-shaped route, or maybe she just came up to take a look.
The mermaid frowned for the nth time today. What kind of bird was that just now? Red eyes, metal all over, and two round strange things at the base of the wings. There were no feathers and no bird smell. Puppet? Humans have never created such advanced puppets, right?
The Cube did not order an attack. After all, it was just to explore the way. It was not that the mermaid had done anything to it. Besides, the mechanical bird could not beat her. It ordered the mechanical bird to quickly leave the sea area and mark the location of the palace on the sea chart. The Cube flew straight to the volcanic island. Regardless of whether the mermaid would avenge the showy fish monster, the Cube had to be prepared for defense. Going to the factory was to start manufacturing some weapons that were beneficial to naval warfare. As for exploring marine intelligent creatures, there was plenty of time. Wang Ziyan's safety was the first priority.
I don't know what the mermaid thought. Anyway, after the Cube returned to the volcanic island, it immediately started to manufacture anti-landing weapons. It quickly selected the artillery drawings of World War II or the current ones on Earth.
The other party did not have high-tech equipment, so advanced missiles could be ignored. The main weapons were machine guns and howitzers. No large-scale, simple defense devices were enough. At present, high-tech gadgets were not needed to deal with those parallel imports.
If you want to defend, you must first build roads. This is no different from building roads first if you want to get rich. The island where the clam girls are located is flat on all sides and can be attacked from anywhere, so defenses need to be deployed in all positions. The problem is that there is no need to fill the island with artillery and machine guns. It is too troublesome and a waste of resources. After thinking for a long time, I came up with a wonderful idea. What to do? Build roads!
Build a seaside ring road around the island, and then make some automatic flatbed trucks and load them with weapons and ammunition systems. After dozens of vehicles are deployed, any place attacked can be immediately dispatched along the ring road around the island. It is both trouble-free and convenient for the daily life of the clam girls, although they may not take the bus for nothing.
Several robots surveyed the road construction plan around the island, and then the magic cube began the relocation work. Originally, it was planned to make a publicity to give some demolition fees or something, but it didn't expect that it was not used. In this world, the biggest advantage is probably that there are no nail households. The clam girls are very generous to leave the road range. In their opinion, the magic cube did not destroy the beach and the fields on the island, so it doesn't matter what they do. Anyway, the island is so big that it is enough to toss.
In order to facilitate the transportation of bulldozers and other engineering equipment to the island, the Cube spent two days making a ferry, which is a bit similar to the equipment of the Earth Army's pontoon bridge troops. To put it bluntly, it is more like a floating flat plate, and then install a few underwater thrusters. It is simple, rough and effective. Robots say it is good.
The high-altitude drone spent more time watching the fish-man gathering area to see if there was any big movement. Fortunately, the drone flew at an altitude of 10,000 meters and only used ultra-high-definition optical cameras for reconnaissance. There was no fluctuation and no sound. After a few days of reconnaissance, it was found that the mermaid did not find the high-altitude drone above her head. The mechanical bird was discovered that day because the mechanical bird used a scanning device with an energy signal. No matter how careful the marine creatures are, they will not stay idle and watch at a cold altitude of 10,000 meters. If they do that, they will freeze to death before they die of exhaustion.
After loading, the robot controlled by the intelligent program drove the ferry to the island. Many clam girls on the beach were watching these novelties, especially the bulldozers and other equipment that started up and roared and drove onto the beach, which almost scared the little clam girls to tears. Such a big thing rumbled and looked like a monster in a fairy tale.
There is no other way. Resources are scarce and the power system is simple. It is good enough to be able to make a bulldozer. This is also due to a lot of high technology. Otherwise, if diesel is used, it will be necessary to drill oil wells, which will be exhausting...
