Chapter 40 The way to get in and out of the bottom nest

"No matter what it was originally used for, the things built by the ancients have become our troubles."

"As far as I know, there are ancient self-destruct mechanisms left in the metal above and around the passage."

Klein squatted on the ground, gesticulating with his fingers on the drawings he drew.

"This self-destruct mechanism is not a fancy thing, but it is reliable and effective enough."

"In short, they are bombs placed in metal walls, connected to a self-repairing detonation button."

"When the button is pressed, the bomb in the wall will be detonated. The giant metal fragments that have peeled off by themselves are enough to block the passage, but what is even more terrible is that there is a second ring of bombs in the wall. The effect of this ring of bombs is similar to that of a melta gun."

"First, the metal fragments peeled off, and then the torrent of molten metal poured into every gap, turning these metal fragments into a whole, blocking the passage with a total length of [-] kilometers."

"By the Emperor, I can't imagine what the man who designed this thought."

After speaking, Klein picked up the blueprint and handed it to An Ruida.

"You know the self-destruct mechanism of this passage quite well?" Qin Mo asked in surprise.

"Of course, my family is the oldest engineer family on this planet." Klein had an unconcealable pride on his face, "The story of my family's prosperity is all related to these self-destruct mechanisms."

"About 700 years ago, my ancestors undertook the secret project formulated by the governor at that time, and it took 30 years to remove a melta bomb from the wall."

"At that time, a war broke out in Tyrone's hive, and the rebels organized by an unknown sect fought fiercely with the Planetary Defense Force."

"Just when everyone thought that the governor at the time would use the bomb for military purposes, he bombed the area where another noble family was located, turning a large number of buildings into molten iron."

After listening to the story told by Klein, Qin Mo said with emotion: "It seems that this is also a skill passed down from generation to generation by the Governor."

"The skills their family has passed down for generations are not just playing bombs." Klein said.

The three stood together and watched the obstacles in the passage.

When the chat was over, Qin Mo raised his hand to try to see if he could use his ability to get through here quickly.

But Klein had no hope for this. After all, he was there when Qin Mo built the fortress. The outer walls of the fortress were attached section by section. Compared with the obstacles blocking the entire passage, the fortress was like a small house.

But everything has to be tried.

After Qin Mo focused on mobilizing the power of the Star God, the metal in front of the three of them began to flow, flowing down the slope like a liquid, and then controlled by Qin Mo to stick to the walls around the passage.

Huge walls of solidified metal fragments are rapidly recovering.

At this time, Qin Mo recalled what the mimic said, and realized that his strength was indeed gradually recovering.

If the fortress was built instead of digging this giant passage, it would only take a second for the fortress to rise from the ground.

After half an hour, Qin Mo gave up: "A drop in the bucket, I feel like I'm trying to fill the ocean with stones."

An Ruida didn't know what an ocean was, but Klein did, so he could understand what Qin Mo said.

"Could it be that the insides of these obstacles are all seamless?" Qin Mo had a whim, "If you can enter the inside of the obstacles and install melta bombs in the gaps..."

As he spoke, Qin Mo walked towards the obstacle, and distorted the laws of physics in a large area around his body, allowing metal to penetrate like air.

Klein and An Ruida saw Qin Mo entering through the wall, and they were no longer surprised.

After waiting for 10 minutes, Qin Mo turned back and came out to explain the situation to the two of them: "The inside is completely filled with molten iron, and it's not cured."

"What if we don't dig anymore?" Klein asked, "Just like you enter the metal, let other people walk around you, and then enter the metal together, digging a big hole every one kilometer for rest, can this work?"

"You don't think I'm on call like him, do you? How do you get in without me?" Qin Mo pointed to An Ruida.

"That's true..." Klein was completely helpless.

Qin Mo began to think about the way to dig the tunnel.

In fact, it is very simple, just make construction machinery for excavation, research small construction machinery and high-efficiency metal excavation devices for digging, or manufacture giant construction machinery equipped with energy beams to melt through the metal blocking the passage bit by bit.

But just when he was thinking about what kind of construction machinery to make, Qin Mo suddenly had another idea.

Since it is necessary to create a method of interstellar navigation that is not based on subspace in the future, why not start researching it now?

Starting with related technologies, make some basic things first, until the entire technology tree is expanded and can be used proficiently.

Qin Mo himself didn't know what this kind of technology would be, but he felt that this channel was like the distance between galaxies, and there was always a way to overcome it.

Qin Mo looked at Klein, "Not only will I not dig this blocked passage, but I will also strengthen it so that it cannot be broken through and destroyed."

"Are we going to stay in the Bottom Nest forever?" Klein suddenly felt uncomfortable.

"No, we can still go in and out, but we don't need to go in and out through this passage." Qin Mo walked towards the train, "Don't waste your time on this passage. If the regiments can't find any rebels to attack, they will conduct training and exercises."

...

After returning to the fortress, Qin Mo decided to conduct a long study, and he had to settle everything before that.

If it is true that there is a bigger conspiracy on this planet and it is being corroded, as Mimicry said, then it is necessary to plan to live in the Bottom Hive for a long time, instead of leaving the Bottom Hive together and never returning.

The establishment of the new Cato city is imminent.

Qin Mo instructed the main control intelligence to drive the logistics machinery to build a new city. This city should be built like a fortress, and ensure that electricity and water can be connected to every corner of the city, and there are a large number of arsenals and forts.

Civilians will live under various forts in the city. They will be workers in the arsenal at ordinary times, and they will control the forts as a family to participate in defense during wartime.

There will be a refuge in the center of the city, a refuge for children in wartime, but in normal times it will be a school.

Physical arts will not be taught in schools, because these are too extravagant, and students will only learn how to tell who is the enemy and how to fight the enemy.

Qin Mo will not dream of building a utopian city, but he will ensure that the people in this city can easily get what they have paid for, that is, food and fresh water.

After arranging everything, Qin Mo devoted himself to the research, and he quickly thought of what direction he should research.

That is to create a shortcut that can be traversed in alternate spaces and dimensions-the human application version of the necromancer phase transfer technology.
