Chapter 407: The Clay Tablet Connecting the Isolated Islands

After officially joining the job, Tudigong became visibly more active.

“Where else can this artificial land technology be replicated?” it asked.

"If I can add more land, not only will it be able to accommodate more lives, but I will also become stronger and regain my former strength."

Zhou Yi shook his head: "Not yet. The suspended loop is still in the exploratory stage. Although a lot of repetitive work has been handed over to the workers and the factory, the key framework, coating, and reinforcement still need to be completed by Wu Yi independently."

In fact.

At first, Zhou Yi wanted to use the reinforced concrete of his time.

Once the technology matures, it can be replicated on a large scale.

However, the simulation test results of the programming department were not ideal.

Concrete is composed of cement, sand, gravel, steel bars, additives and water.

The sand must be river sand or machine-made sand. There is a serious shortage of it in Jade City, so we need to buy it in large quantities from outside.

Although there is a river in Shagang area, the local river sand has too much mud content, too many impurities, and unreasonable particle grading, and does not meet the concrete standards at all.

Furthermore, the steel bars must be hot-rolled steel bars. The steelmaking technology in the Steelmaking City is crude and cannot produce steel bars that meet this standard.

Next is water.

Making concrete requires a lot of clean fresh water, but in fact there are many places that need water locally. Large-scale farmland and the growing population all require a lot of clean fresh water, and today's electrolysis towers, garment factories, and production plants are all big water consumers.

If water consumption continues and rain is scarce, it may cause seasonal water shortages.

In addition to these objective environmental constraints, the Program Department also made a detailed estimate form, simulating the various requirements and expenses for building a cement plant and creating a reinforced concrete suspended loop.

All in all, the cost of creating a concrete suspended floor is 750 times that of Wu Yi's hand-made one.

Zhou Yi lost his temper after reading this report.

So he worked with the manufacturing department and the programming department to come up with a plan that suited the actual situation.

This plan is the current factory model with workers assisting and Wu Yi leading.

Land manufacturing has officially become a modular operation.

The first step is for the warrior crabs to dig out a large amount of silt and sand from the bottom of the Dead Sea and send it to the outside of the factory.

In the second step, workers use these raw materials to make molds to create standard clay boards, which are then dried and fired to set the shape.

The third step is to deliver the clay tablets to the designated location and use various abandoned old human high-rise buildings as the base to assemble the suspended layer of mud tablet land.

In the fourth step, Wu Yi completed the main frame and covering, and reinforced them.

This method has a simple process, can be performed by any worker, and has low cost.

Unfortunately, it is difficult to promote to the outside world.

Because the core of building the floating land is still Wu Yi's [Sand Control] ability.

Currently there is no machine that can replace this step.

Zhou Yi explained the causes and consequences and said, "If we want to promote it externally, our land expansion technology may need to be more mature and the supporting facilities may be easier to achieve."

The God of Land also calmed down: "I didn't expect it to be so complicated... The current result is already very good."

Wu Yi also said: "In the past year or so, I have been thinking about how to expand the land. I think that we should use land to connect the land in different Dead Sea areas, so that the isolated islands can be transformed into a large continental environment that is connected to each other. Whether it is farming, trade and transportation, or the travel of residents from all over the world, it will become faster and more convenient."

“I never had a clue how to do this.”

"One time when I was chatting with Nige, he told me about a mud-tree civilization, which was about using mud slabs to build long bridges and passages between trees."

The skeleton gestured with his bony hands wearing expensive watches: "They use clay tablets as tools and building materials, but the method I use is different. The clay tablets of the Mud Tree People contain amber. The higher the content, the better."

Zhou Yi immediately asked Yuanxiao to call Nige.

The spiky-haired mud tree man came running over. Hearing about the clay tablet, he looked relieved and wiped the sweat from his forehead with his big hand: "So that's all..."

Zhou Yi said seriously: "This is very important. Please explain this clay tablet clearly. Can they really be stably connected and cross the high-altitude area?"

“This is caveman technology.”

Nig thought for a moment and said, "After extensive testing, our tree naturalists found that some of the clay tablets left by the cavemen can be associated with space bubbles."

"Space is like a special kind of sticky mud structure. It will move to a certain extent, but it also has great power. The visible space channel is called a bubble, and the invisible and cannot be used directly is a hole." "The hole board relies on the power of space bubbles and space holes."

He continued, "This premise must have a space bubble. Based on the space bubble, we need to build the clay tablet around it. The space bubble is the space coordinate, and we can proceed around it."

Zhou Yi frowned: "Wouldn't the space bubble absorb the surrounding matter into it?"

"You are right. However, only energy can be completely absorbed. Matter will be compressed around the space channel to form a high-density condensate. The specific hole plate made of light amber can form a connection with it and will be filled with the power and matter provided by the space bubble."

"But first we need to make some amber clay tablets, punch specific holes in them, and replicate the 12 types of cavemen's tablets."

Nige continued to talk: "According to the diagrams left by the cavemen, these 12 clay tablets correspond to 12 types of space bubbles. By trying these 12 clay tablets separately, we can know which one is most suitable for the space bubble."

"If the compatibility is good, it will remain stably adsorbed and fixed, and the hole energy will be connected to the hole on the clay tablet."

"After the amber clay slabs are used to create the foundation that wraps the space bubble, it will expand and release matter to form a space tree. On this basis, we can expand outwards."

"The power provided by space is extremely stable and difficult to destroy. To destroy these substances is equivalent to destroying the space hole at their source."

The cave people's space technology is so advanced and unique that it sounds counterintuitive.

However, Zhou Yi has now developed the ability to accept things.

From the Yin Guang technique to the moon beast on the other side of the space bubble, to the mud tree civilization, each one of them was outrageous in the era in which he lived.

Zhou Yi asked the God of Land beside him: "What do you think?"

The conceptual life, which is like a clay figure in the cloud, said: "...I don't understand it at all."

"It's okay. Let's go do a field test first."

Zhou Yi asked Ni Ge: "But do you remember the 12 types of hole boards clearly?"

"Don't worry about that. That's my area of expertise."

The Mud Tree Man patted his chest and said, "I am an explorer of the Mud Tribe. These are the basics that must be remembered and made skillfully. Sometimes we are trapped or blocked by monsters, and we have to rely on these cave boards to surround ourselves and wait for rescue."

Zhou Yi and his party immediately came to the space bubble closest to Sand Harbor, which was also the passage through which the Boundary Breaker Haluk came.

Nige started to make clay boards on the spot.

With his big hands, he easily shaped and solidified the sticky amber.

Only then did Zhou Yi realize that the cavemen's mud tablets were not the mud tablets he had imagined. They were very regular mud square bricks, about one meter in length, width and height.

These mud bricks are punched with holes, with a different number of holes on each side, making them look like strange oversized dice.

Some of the holes inside them are connected to each other, while others are completely isolated, presenting a peculiar maze-like pipe structure.

Zhou Yi turned on [Panoramic Reading].

[This substance has a special configuration space that can connect to the spatial momentum of a certain dimension. The principle is unknown.]

The Rock Core Clan is highly regarded.

It is indeed a tool for utilizing space energy.

Nige made 12 hole boards in one go and tested them one by one.

The first two were sucked in and melted directly into black mud in the space bubble.

The third one was floating steadily beside the space bubble. Strands of black mud extended from the space bubble and automatically connected with the hole in the hole board, which looked very strange.

"It's done, it's done! This is it, number 3."

Nigge said happily, "As long as we use the No. 3 hole plate to surround this, the energy and matter of this space bubble can hatch a space tree, and we can continue to build outwards."

"On the Mud Tree side, one space bubble can at least support the connection of 100 Sky-High Trees on our side, covering more than 10 people. Converted to this side where people live more densely, it should be enough to support the scale of several regions."

Zhou Yi's fingers trembled when he heard this.

While the Ministry of Land is still piecing together pieces of mud slabs, the cavemen had already used space bubble technology to create artificial land masses many years ago... This civilization's space technology seems to be quite mature.

He immediately ordered: "Make the hole board immediately and hatch the space tree!"

"Yes, Chairman!"
