Greenland.
"Clear the open space quickly, the aerostat will be here soon." "Don't get close to large plants!" "Be careful of poisonous insects under the vegetation!"
In a tropical rainforest with lush vegetation, a group of workers in overalls are cleaning the site.
The workers in the front row were carrying plastic water tanks on their backs, holding long tubes with both hands, and sprayed pungent white mist toward the dense vegetation.
The sharp chirping of insects sounded from time to time, and one or two struggling and twisting insects crawled out.
The worker in the back row is carrying a power unit on his back and a portable lawn mower in both hands. Power is transmitted from the device to the flywheel through a black pipeline, and the spiral blade rotates at high speed, cutting low shrubs and weeds into pieces flying in the sky.
"Look above your head, the aerostat is coming."
A huge shadow was cast on the ground, and a large aerostat slowly landed.
"laugh!"
When it was still two or three meters above the ground, several streams of steam erupted from the rear compartment lid, the metal bridge fell, and an iron lump slid out from inside.
Nearly four meters tall, the upper part is humanoid with two thick mechanical arms, and the lower part is two triangular tracks.
The side arms have the production model number spray-painted in red.
Ogre61
This is a large-scale engineering mecha produced by Hongtu Heavy Industry, commonly known as the Big Iron Ox, or the Wilderness Ogre. The two sturdy robotic arms can be equipped with engineering shovels, breaker hammers, drilling rigs, etc. Its function is equivalent to the multi-functional excavator before the catastrophe, but it is more flexible than the excavator and can operate in extremely complex environments.
The heavy mechanical body ran over weeds and branches, bringing up a large amount of soil and leaving two deep tracks on the rear.
“Let’s saw off the big tree first!”
The foreman wearing a red safety helmet shouted loudly to the pilot in the mecha's cockpit, who made an "understanding" gesture through the glass partition.
"Boom!"
The exhaust pipe on the back of the big iron bull spewed black smoke, and the smell of incompletely burned fuel filled the air. The mechanical tracks ruthlessly rolled over the dirt and arrived in front of a large banyan tree surrounded by several people.
The saw blade on the robotic arm ran at high speed and pressed down bit by bit towards the tree trunk. The moment it touched the bark of the tree, a large stream of sawdust spurted out, like a yellow fountain.
After half an hour, the crown of the tree slowly tilted, and finally the trunk broke, leaving a low, flat stump.
The tree stump is several meters in diameter, like a small stage in a bar. After a while, several pairs of polished combat boots stepped on. This was the only clean place to stay nearby.
One pair of combat boots is snow-white, and anyone with a little knowledge can tell that they are made of fine snow-capped mountain calfskin. They are sewn with fine gold silk threads, and then use crystal silk to weave shoelaces. The workmanship is surprising, and it is extremely luxurious. I know it's not something ordinary people wear.
The owner of the boots is dressed in white, with slender white trousers and a white windbreaker with golden buttons.
On the white collar, there is an extraordinary handsome face. With a face like a crown jade and eyes like stars, he looks like a prince charming from a fairy tale.
He stood with his head held high, staring at the rainforest in front of him. He was silent for a long time, then slowly turned around and opened his hands towards the crowd behind him.
"My dear friends, this is our future."
The person speaking was none other than Joan Malan, who had just arrived from the Red Earth Continent and was the orthodox heir to the Malan royal family.
The ministers looked at each other in confusion, as if they did not understand what Qiao An meant.
One of the ministers couldn't help but said, "Your Majesty, I am stupid and can't understand what your Majesty is saying. Please make it clear."
"The wind in the mountains, the fog in the forest, in the name of Lan, we open up new lands." Qiao An replied, his eyes were full of energy and his face was radiant.
The ministers did not show excitement like their king. Instead, they frowned and were worried.
After hesitating for a while, the gray-haired Prime Minister finally asked, "Your Majesty wants to expand the territory here, but what about the ancestral property of Ambergris River?" He spread his hands, "Are we going to hand it over to the two thieves of the country like this? thief?"
Another minister couldn't help but speak, "It's hard for me to understand your Majesty's intentions." His voice rose a little higher unconsciously, "Now that the royal power has fallen away, the country is in turmoil. Your Majesty should expel the national traitors, conquer the mountains and rivers, and restore the royal family's orthodoxy. , and the Ambergris River is still peaceful."
Qiao An didn't answer in a hurry, just put his hands behind his back and smiled without saying a word.
"How many years will it take to build this wasteland into a city?" "How can anyone leave their own mountains and rivers alone and come to the New World to open up wasteland." "Yes, isn't this putting the cart before the horse?"
The ministers were whispering to each other, obviously dissatisfied with the king's future plans.
Qiao An allowed his ministers to discuss for a while before he said, "Everyone, please be patient and don't be impatient."
"Right now, the two tigers are fighting fiercely. Why don't we sit on the mountain and watch the tigers fight, and at the same time secretly accumulate strength, wait for them to fight to the death, and then reap the benefits?"
As soon as these words came out, the courtiers collectively fell into silence.
They gradually realized that they were now nothing more than a government in exile, without even a place to stay. The new king's whale-swallowing realm alone was unable to fight against either Trilis or Aaliyah. It is better to stay away from the storm, develop in secret, and wait for the opportunity.
After thinking through this link, they all praised, "Your Majesty is wise!"
At the same time, on the high ground on the other side of the construction site, a handsome young man and a tall mercenary man were standing side by side, looking at the dense rain forest ahead.
"Master Tienuo, the vegetation is full of poisonous insects, and many workers have been injured." The handsome young man nodded slightly to the tall man and said, "In order to avoid delays in the construction period, I have come to you, Master Lao."
The latter nodded, took a step forward, waved his big hand forward, and the cracks in the space behind him opened, and countless blue birds swarmed out.
In an instant, a clear cry resounded throughout the world. They flap their small wings and fly into dense vegetation, searching for poisonous insects, snakes and ants, and attack with their sharp beaks and claws.
There were thousands of bluebirds, and in the blink of an eye, the bellies of venomous snakes were cut open by their claws and left hanging on the branches. The black centipede was cut into several sections, and the slurry was stained everywhere. The beetle's strong carapace was pierced by its beak or torn apart by its claws, and it died tragically.
After a while, a large area was cleared. Following the master's command, all the bluebirds returned.
"Your Majesty's blue bird is really a magical tool for pioneering wasteland. It has shortened our time by at least one-third." The handsome young man praised in admiration.
"It is my lifelong honor to serve His Majesty." The mercenary man put one hand on his chest and nodded in greeting.
"Sir, you are humble." The handsome young man nodded in return.
The two cherished each other. Not far away, a pair of eyes were staring here, with a gloomy look in their eyes.
"Hypocrisy..." the man muttered, and then there was a sting in his mind.
The ground in the realm shook, lava erupted, and fire rain fell.
The huge beast egg shrank and shrank, shaking and shaking. There was a crisp sound of the shell cracking, fine cracks gradually spreading, and with a snap, a large piece broke out.
"Uh, uh!"
"Wait, wait!"
"I promise, I promise to make you get what you want!"
"Uh-huh, stop, stop!"
"I'm going to die, I'm going to die!"
The man seemed to have a splitting headache. He was rolling on the ground holding his head and howling in pain.
On the high ground, a bluebird stopped on its broad shoulder. Its small emerald eyes looked left and right, and finally locked the direction of the peeper.
"What's the matter, little guy?" A big hand gently stroked the blue bird's small head. The little creature touched it and rubbed it against the gentle palm, which seemed to be very helpful.
Sensing the blue bird's attention, the eggs in the lava field stopped vibrating, and the violent emotions gradually calmed down. The veins of magma on the shell flickered on and off, like a calm breathing.
