Chapter 492: Unified Direction

With the access to the new system core, the archives of the small floating island appeared in front of Ji Lin.

This small island and the ruins on it are under his control, and he can issue orders to the entire island from the center.

‘Ruins core’

It is undoubtedly where he is now. A half-man-high azure crystal core is used as a semi-automatic processing center. He can issue various commands here without the help of the lord panel.

The empty space in the hall can be used to place an entire command room or turn it into an absolutely safe underground bunker.

The ruins core hidden in the center of the island is an absolutely safe bunker in itself.

‘Ruins preparation warehouse’

‘Provide parking space for thirty-six six-meter-class structures’

‘Provide four temporary maintenance mechanical arms (need to be repaired)’

The space originally used to store and maintain the ruins guards can now be emptied and repaired with resources, so that it can be used to store and repair the construct units belonging to the territory.

Although the island Ji Lin got also had this facility, it was completely damaged to the point where it could not be repaired.

‘Central energy supply core’

‘It can supply energy to buildings, no additional energy supply equipment is needed (repair is needed)’

Multifunctional core, compatible with energy storage and scheduling, provides energy for other facilities... and can extract energy from the surrounding environment to improve the operating efficiency of the engine.

Ji Lin simply checked the panel data for a round, and clicked on a round of repair for all the things that could be repaired.

Anyway, it was his resources that were deducted after the call-up, and the resources in his inventory were enough to renovate this complete ruins from top to bottom twenty times.

Open the navigation interface on the screen... reset the route to the direction of the vine sky island where he had built a comprehensive outpost.

Although this thing is a bit slow, it is fully qualified as an air fortress.

‘Cruising speed: 1km/h, there are still 72 hours before the energy storage is exhausted. ’

In other words... it moves 24km a day steadily.

The detour is too far, he plans to rely on the size of the floating island to break through the rain clouds and reach the target directly, relying on the rich resources of the vine island

Very slow.

Compared with various standard airships, even compared with the sky ship that only travels 3km per hour, it is considered very slow.

But it is also faster than the semi-abandoned island that Ji Lin got, which took nearly two months to move a hundred kilometers.

It is a miracle that the floating stone engine can push such a large island to float around... and it does not require them to invest too much extra energy.

In addition to regulating and activating a little energy from the rune array, they do not need to carry additional working fluid to ensure the operation of the floating stone engine.

This is an almost perfect clean engine.

Yes, they do not need any additional fuel.

It's just... the moving speed is a flaw.

The moving speed of the floating stone ship without additional auxiliary propulsion devices is not so impressive.

After all, the engine basically does not need to consume working fluid... carrying the mass of the ship, and also needs to provide sufficient propulsion power for the ship.

If you want to increase the speed...

The floating stone engine of that level may have to drain the nearby elemental energy to maintain operation.

The same is true for the island-level floating stone engine. When it is running, it relies on its own sufficient capture radius to "pump water" from the air.

This is the external manifestation of the floating stone engine technology, a very special ore.

And now the engine of the ruins has one more function than the conventional floating stone engine.

Part of the energy is used to propel this uneven island of about one square kilometer forward, and at the same time, part of the energy is stored when it is not running/running at low power.

Effective and practical technology.

"This technology is good."

Ji Lin touched his chin.

Energy can be stored when not in use, but I need to set up a special research team... Are there enough people in the territory?

In the past, I didn't have enough technical projects, and I tried my best to find rare technologies... Now the projects are lined up, waiting for me to choose and develop.

The next ones are all long scientific research projects.

No, I have found two cooperative lords.

I have confirmed that I can recruit other lords, so I can try to combine scientific research capabilities and establish laboratories and colleges in the expedition world.

Because units that are not from their own territory cannot pass through the portal, the new academy can only be built in the world of the expedition... Then let each lord send researchers, with the help of a scientific research supervisor...

Integrate scientific research forces.

When I go back, I will try to integrate the scientific research capabilities of the three territories, and take as many researchers as possible from Li Yan and Fang Ai.

Researchers need to be cultivated for a long time, and they cannot be dug out from the ground like resources.

On the water-catching net that the elves use to capture water in the air, Ji Lin realized that there are actually many technologies that can be exchanged between the two sides.

It's not that they don't know this technology, but they don't know what kind of technology the other party needs and what to do with this technology... It's a technology tree-like network that is spread out like a net and intertwined again.

Technical exchanges cannot stop at a simple question-and-answer session.

The lords have limited energy, and they must delegate the permission to the scientific researchers in the territory to spontaneously organize exchanges... This is a good thing for mutual benefit.

As for the problem that the island alliance was worried about, that the technical exchange would leak key technologies to its members - it didn't exist for him.

Damn, my head started to hurt again.

Ji Lin glanced at the dragon and elf lords who were standing behind him a little stiff.

Fortunately, he didn't need to be responsible for the resource allocation in the territory... now he didn't need to be responsible.

A sixth-era intellectual computer and a sixth-level hero have helped him fill the big hole in territory management.

Then he asked Li Yan and Fang Ai to borrow some hero units to manage and execute tasks.

To gain a foothold here and take over an entire airspace... there are still many things to do.

New unit research and development, resource integration, multi-race force running-in, resource mining plan...
