Chapter 105 Copy
A strong wind rises and clouds fly, the extreme cold wind sweeps across the outside scenery, severing all life except for the port.
It seemed that the whole world was left with only cold desolation, and the fierce winds invaded every inch of the ice surface of the icy sea.
Inside the captain's cabin of the Azure, the round window was covered with frost. He Feng idly scraped it with a metal tool to clear the view through the window.
"It seems the people outside are going to have a hard time these days," He Feng couldn't help but sigh at the terrible weather.
Despite the howling wind outside, the Azure Ship had no shortage of fuel, and its boilers and steam heating equipment were running at full capacity, making it completely unfazed by the challenging weather.
This gave He Feng, who was in a comfortable environment, a Versailles-like feeling of being oblivious to the hunger of the starving.
The weather is no longer a concern; on the contrary, it may even become an opportunity for them to secretly plot their schemes.
This is exactly what He Feng is considering.
So he reprocessed the regularly refreshed random intelligence and fell into deep thought.
[Intelligence 1. A wounded Tier 2 BOSS is roaming on the edge of the Sandy Sea, 1000 nautical miles northeast of you. Some Tier 2 fortresses are searching for its whereabouts.]
Currently located: 1000 kilometers away (surviving)
[Intelligence 2. The Sea Mountain and Sky Tower of the Black Abyss Sea are looking for a superhuman with mind control abilities to open a sunken sea area full of lost treasures.]
Status: Recruiting
[Intelligence 3. In a chaotic battle, a Tier 2 fortress named Steel was destroyed in the Desolate Sea Valley. Its remains contained a Tier 2 city module shipyard construction module.]
Currently located at: 2000 nautical miles, 400 meters below the seabed.
I don't know how many times he's been flipping through the newly updated intelligence today. Admittedly, it's all high-quality information, enough to fascinate anyone.
Moreover, a route map was specially arranged, forming a bright straight line that is perfectly straight no matter how you look at it.
The first piece of intelligence is that the first hurdle in this relay race is the location of the wandering BOSS, which happens to be the closest point the Azure Ship is to the Black Abyss Sea.
The power of a Tier 2 boss is evident even from ordinary Tier 2 monsters, and there are other Tier 2 fortresses searching for its whereabouts.
Risk and reward are commensurate.
Ordinary Tier 2 monsters are guaranteed to produce elemental cores, let alone Tier 2 bosses and rare items like boss chests.
It seems almost impossible to prevent people from joining in the fun.
The second risk is equally fraught with danger; reaching a cooperation agreement with someone requires the assistance of a spiritually evolved individual.
As luck would have it, there happened to be one Azure.
However, the other side also offered the assistance of a mental-type evolver in exchange for a spot to join, which clearly demonstrated the value of mental-type evolvers.
However, the fact that we haven't found it yet doesn't mean we won't find it in the future. We can try it as a backup plan, or at the very least, avoid that area altogether.
After all, a Tier 1 fortress shouldn't be mixed with a Tier 2 fortress; otherwise, it might become a disposable resource.
The last piece of intelligence was He Feng's ultimate goal.
A once-in-a-lifetime find – the Dock City Module.
He prefers a steady, low-key way of making a fortune to risky, risky ventures.
Transforming the abandoned White Dove in Black Dragon Bay into a functional engineering fortress was a well-thought-out idea of his.
Many of the people on the White Dove ship today have not been influenced by He Feng's thinking. There are countless fools who are trying to make Lin Qingqing seize power. He Feng is well aware of this.
They can't be blamed for this.
There are quite a few on the Azure, but they are somewhat less so, and they can still be saved after being tempered by the environment.
But once a person has been confined to a certain lifestyle for most of their life, that kind of ingrained mindset can never be reversed.
Therefore, he wanted to lock down this group of people, forcing them to only plot against engineering fortresses, so that in case of any accidents, the Blue Ship could quickly quell the situation with its strength.
This is the worst-case scenario, but it is necessary.
In addition, the biggest threat to the area remains inactive, and the weather is extremely bad, so at least for the time being, it can be guaranteed that Heilong Bay will be safe.
The large oil well on which the Azure relies for survival will remain firmly in his hands.
He Feng paced around the room for a long time, and then he made up his mind and opened the cover of the sound transmission pipe.
"Call Zhou Haiping over; I have something to ask him."
"Yes, my lord."
He Feng was hunched over his desk when, after a dozen or so breaths, he heard the sound of hurried footsteps.
The person outside was panting heavily, their breaths almost matching the howling wind outside, as they stood there pounding on the hatch.
"Come in," He Feng said softly.
"My lord, what brings you here?"
"How's the blueprint for the second-tier icebreaker we brought back last time coming along?"
"Everything is proceeding smoothly, but the reverse engineering you assigned, Lord, has stumped our engineers. Trying to create a technology that machine tools have never used before using human labor is unprecedented."
He Feng's brows furrowed slightly, and he sighed, "That's not so surprising."
"However..." Zhou Haiping continued, his slightly overweight belly protruding, "that kid Ji Chun has come up with something new that I don't understand. It just so happens that you, Lord, should take a look."
After saying that, he took a ball from his arms and wrapped it carefully in linen, as if he were afraid of scratching it.
Upon closer inspection, it was indeed the thing He Feng had taken out of the machine tool, but recently it had been studied by Ji Chun, that mechanical fanatic.
"Ji Chunxin came up with a new function, I think it's called something like copying, I don't know, but he taught us how to use it."
"Show me what you've got," He Feng said, his interest piqued.
Zhou Haiping nodded, and after scanning the surroundings, picked up a CD he had taken from the flea market from He Feng's desk.
"My lord, do you mind if I touch your things?"
"Just some trivial things, whatever." He Feng waved his hand.
Then Zhou Haiping clumsily swiped left and right on the screen, and finally the entire curved surface quickly turned as dark as charcoal.
The animation features a strangely open eye that blinks occasionally, full of life.
Then, a prosthetic limb grew out from the bottom of the black sphere, and after it was placed on the table, it began to sniff around as if it were a living creature.
He chose the digital disc on the table without bias, and then crawled around and looked around, observing it very carefully.
After about several tens of seconds, the light sphere collected the data and then suddenly shrank back to its original spherical shape.
Only one line of white characters written in the language of the old civilization remained on one side.
"Golden Age of Music has learned the 3xd1 disc technology and can build the technical blueprints for the 3xd1 music disc."
He Feng was stunned.
