Under the firm opposition of everyone.
Ye Ming had no choice but to give up his plan to collect materials from the cracks on the seabed.
But this matter still remained deep in his heart.
"Only with the physical strength of shark skin can we withstand the danger in the crack?"
"Hmph! Sooner or later, I must go in and see what's so special about the Rift Demon Cave!"
That afternoon, Ye Ming discovered something strange.
When the sun went down, the sky above the sea was empty and there was nothing.
Logically speaking, now should be the time to refresh supplies on the sea surface.
But this time, not even a barrel was seen.
Jiang Shiyun told Ye Ming that this was not the first time this happened.
This time yesterday, it was the same.
Could it be that the material refresh has entered the third stage.
It will only be refreshed from time to time, no fixed time point anymore?
But that’s not right!
Ye Ming remembers it very clearly.
That situation should have occurred a year after the beginning of the Ocean Age.
It’s only been less than half a year!
Logically speaking, supplies should be refreshed every afternoon when the sun sets!
"Could it be..."
"Is it because I have collected all the materials in the underwater city, so there are no more materials in this sea area?"
Such an idea suddenly came to Ye Ming's mind.
It just so happens that all the underwater city materials at this treasure spot have been collected, so there is no need to delay here any longer.
Ye Ming decided to rush back to Jueming Island overnight!
In this way, tomorrow afternoon, he can verify whether the reason why the supplies are no longer refreshed is because of his conjecture.
"Shiyun, Yurou, do you think I will build a static underwater city? Or a movable underwater city?"
After inputting the coordinates of Jueming Island into the fishing boat's autopilot navigation, Ye Ming, Jiang Shiyun and Yurou sat on a bench nearby and started discussing.
The materials from the ruins of the underwater city have been completely collected.
The value of that treasure spot has been squeezed out completely by Ye Ming.
The harvest is quite rich!
So Ye Ming’s plan to build an undersea city can be officially put on the agenda!
"I think……"
"If a movable underwater city could be built..."
"it's the best!"
Jiang Shiyun thought carefully for a while and then suggested carefully.
"Brother, Yurou doesn't quite understand what you said to your sister. I still have a lot to learn..."
After Yurou tilted her head and thought for a while, she said with some distress,
"But I think what my sister is saying makes sense. It would definitely be interesting if, brother, you could build a home that can be moved around like this boat."
Ye Ming smiled.
Yurou, this girl, is judged based on whether she is interesting or not!
but.
Jiang Shiyun's words indeed coincided with what Ye Ming thought.
Ye Ming didn't think it would be very interesting to have a mobile city in the sea.
He was thinking about safety and practicality.
In the ocean age, many incredible things often happened in this boundless ocean.
Every disaster comes out of nowhere, without any warning!
Ye Ming didn't want to think that the underwater city he had worked so hard to build would be suddenly destroyed by some natural disaster such as undersea crustal movement, deep-sea tsunami, etc.
so.
Or don’t build it!
If you want to build it, build an underwater city that can truly move freely.
Just say so.
It is not that simple to really build a mobile underwater city!
First, there is the foundation issue.
What to use for foundation?
It must have enough load-bearing capacity to withstand extremely high weights without breaking.
Wooden boards definitely won’t work!
Even fine-grade ironwood probably won’t work!
"Is it possible to combine iron wood and black gold iron to build the foundation of an undersea city?"
"It would be nice if there were good drawings..."
It took a day and a half of overnight sailing.
The fishing boat finally returned to the waters where Jueming Island is located.
On the epic blueprint research platform, the first blueprint was finally developed.
[Obtain epic honeycomb composite floor manufacturing diagram X1]
[Epic-level honeycomb composite floor manufacturing diagram: excellent-grade iron wood 5/5, excellent-grade engineering plastics 5/5, excellent-grade black gold iron 5/5, excellent-grade gauze 5/5, excellent-grade tempered glass 5/5, Excellent-grade spiral metal sheet 5/5, excellent-grade screws 10/10, excellent-grade adhesive 5/5]
[Level: Epic Level]
[Explanation: It is a composite laminate floor made by using a variety of rare resources and combined with the honeycomb principle. It can withstand high temperature, high pressure and strong impact. Whether it is used to build houses, ships or various buildings, it has indescribable properties. Unparalleled advantages. 】
[Note: It is slightly heavier than wood and will sink slowly in water. This kind of flooring is extremely expensive and consumes a lot of materials. If you are not a wealthy person, please do not try it. 】
"Good stuff!"
“This epic honeycomb composite floor manufacturing diagram comes at the perfect time!”
After looking at the properties of the drawing, Ye Ming couldn't help but marvel.
"Brother Ye, this is the most suitable foundation material for building an underwater city!"
Jiang Shiyun was also full of joy.
They were still having trouble finding a suitable foundation.
Unexpectedly, the first epic blueprint developed by the Epic Blueprint Research Station solved this problem for them!
"Now the construction of the underwater city can officially begin!"
Ye Ming nodded.
"There are really a lot of supplies needed for this!"
"With so many materials, we only built a 1 meter by 1 meter floor!"
After collecting the ruins from the ruins of the underwater city, Ye Ming once felt that he was very rich!
But now looking at the materials needed to make this epic honeycomb composite floor, this feeling of wealth suddenly disappeared without a trace!
With so many precious materials, only a floor of 1 meter x 1 meter can be built!
That’s 1 square meter of floor!
To build a city, it would take at least 2 square kilometers, right?
That was the smallest small town before the Ocean Age!
1 square kilometer is equal to 1 million square meters!
Based on this conversion, the amount of epic honeycomb composite flooring required is quite astonishing!
Ye Ming took inventory of the materials on hand.
It was discovered that he could only build an epic honeycomb composite floor covering an area of 1.5 square kilometers at most.
And that’s just building the city’s foundations.
Other aspects, such as various buildings and so on, have not been calculated yet!
"Why do I feel like I have worked hard for more than ten days and returned to before liberation overnight?"
Shaking his head with a wry smile, Ye Ming sighed:
"It seems that there is a long way to go to collect supplies for the undersea city!"
"The supplies in the ruins of an undersea city are definitely not enough..."
"Forget it, we are facing the Deadly Island ahead. Let's go back and repair it for a while to build the foundation that can be built, and we will figure out the rest later."
After canceling the autopilot mode of the fishing boat, Ye Ming drove the boat himself and headed towards Jueming Island.
The mountains of Jueming Island can already be seen ahead, and they are expanding rapidly.
A smile appeared on Ye Ming's face.
After being away for so many days, I’m finally back!
This time, I came back with a full load!
"Tell Shark Skin to follow me for a while. It should be able to pass through the strait waterway..."
Ye Ming was muttering.
suddenly.
His eyes suddenly widened, then tightened.
There are ships ahead!
It's a wooden boat transformed from a raft.
And there’s more than one!
Ye Ming checked the radar, and all the conditions within ten kilometers around Jueming Island were displayed.
There are 5 boats in total and more than 10 rafts!
It seems that this desperate island has been discovered by other survivors!
Ye Ming stopped the fishing boat.
"Brother Ye, why did you stop?"
Jiang Shiyun hadn't noticed anything unusual yet. Seeing Ye Ming stop the boat, she walked into the cab and asked.
Yurou also followed in.
"Look."
Ye Ming pointed to the virtual screen displayed on the radar.
"So many wooden boats and rafts?"
Jiang Shiyun's expression changed.
"Has this place been discovered by other survivors? This is terrible!"
"They probably didn't discover the strait waterway, right?"
Ye Ming touched his chin:
"I probably haven't discovered it yet. Not everyone can easily discover the strait waterway. Moreover, I have made a wooden wall to disguise it. Even if someone happens to go in, they will think it is a dead end."
Jiang Shiyun felt a little more at ease:
"That is not bad……"
"By the way, Brother Ye, is our Jueming Island really the only way to get to the island is the Strait Waterway?"
Ye Ming shook his head and said:
"It's not just that one! There is also Jueming Beach. You can also land on the island, but it is extremely dangerous."
"It's impossible for those crudely made wooden boats and rafts to withstand the underwater whirlpools and reefs in the sea area of Desolate Beach!"
"Look, those wooden boats and rafts are just circling around Jueming Island and not getting closer. Especially there is not a single boat on Jueming Beach. I'm afraid they have already tried."
Jiang Shiyun looked carefully and found that it was indeed the case.
Ye Ming's judgment should be correct.
"Brother Ye, we can't enter the strait waterway now, otherwise we will be exposed."
"Why don't you wait until it gets late and then find a chance to go in?"
Ye Ming's fishing boats were all covered with camouflage paint.
As long as they are not too close together, it is generally difficult to find them.
After dark, visibility is blocked and the possibility of being discovered becomes even smaller.
I have to say that Jiang Shiyun's suggestion is quite good.
but.
Ye Ming didn't just want to avoid these survivors.
His purpose is to make them retreat and stop trying to pursue the idea of Jueming Island!
As the saying goes.
Only a thousand days to be a thief, not a thousand days to guard against thieves!
Ye Ming didn't want to have to be careful when he came in and out every day, for fear of being discovered.
The Island of Death is his!
He doesn't allow anyone to get involved!
Open the world chat channel.
Ye Ming checked the chat messages of the survivors.
really!
Many people are discussing the Island of Death.
{Have you heard? There is an island that has not sunk! And it is much larger than all the islands discovered before!}
{The big guys who built the ship have already rushed over. I don’t know what the situation is now. Have they landed on the island?}
{The boss who went to the big island, can you come out and talk about the situation? Has anyone landed on the island?}
{I am now near the big island. This island is indeed very big and should be rich in supplies, but I can't find a suitable place to land yet. }
{This island is surrounded by cliffs. Only one beach has been found, but there are too many reefs and underwater whirlpools in front of the beach, making it impossible to get on it! During the day, several wooden boats and rafts were scattered by reefs and whirlpools, and no one was rescued!}
{Isn’t it? How can we collect supplies if we can’t land? I also said that we should quickly transform the raft into a wooden boat and rush over to have a look...}
It was exactly what Ye Ming thought.
After the news spreads, more and more people will come to Jueming Island to find a way to land on the island.
After all, now, only Jueming Island has been discovered that has not sunk.
Of course everyone is flocking to it.
Ye Ming remembered that except for Jueming Island, the other nine islands were all discovered one year after the beginning of the Ocean Age.
Calculating the time, in about half a year, other large islands will be discovered.
But before that, all survivors will keep their eyes on Jueshi Island.
unless……
Jueming Island is a dangerous place that cannot be touched!
It makes people afraid to make decisions!
Otherwise, there will be no end to the trouble!
Ye Ming came to the deck and waved to the mutated megalodon shark skin swimming around the fishing boat.
"Shark Skin, I have something to ask you to help with..."
Ye Ming explained to Shark Skin.
Jiang Shiyun's eyes widened when she heard this.
Is it really necessary to do this?
