Chapter 276 Outpost and Mobile Plan

After inspecting the entire hall, Ji Lin saw that there was another identical door hidden directly opposite the door he had entered. It was like a passage that went deeper into the interior, or a passage that led to somewhere.

Unable to start.

Let the follow-up personnel think of a way.

It takes a lot of time and technology to pry open a door that is very heavy... What's more, they can only use manpower now, and the steam engine is still under development.

Clicking on the special blueprint interface, Ji Lin checked the special blueprint provided by the system for him to use only in this fragment world.

He raised his eyebrows. This special blueprint gives...

'Island-level floating stone drive engine'

'Unlocked when you have at least one floating stone engine, unlocked. '

'Consumption: 500 units of floating stone, 500 units of steel, 500 units of wood. '

'If we put these things in, and then connect them to the core in the ruins. Let it take over and adjust the direction, then the sky island can move slowly in one direction, which we cannot do with the ruins core. The speed of the island's movement is determined by the current size of the island. '

The island-level floating stone drive engine is undoubtedly the most important of all special blueprints. Ji Lin simply looked at other special blueprints. Most of these special blueprints need to rely on the blue ruins core found on the sky island to operate normally.

Its function is simple and clear. After the drive engine is built, the island under the feet can be moved slowly. The price is expensive. One engine needs to consume four months of floating stone production from the small sky island, which is equivalent to four airships.

Ji Lin only hopes that this drive engine can play its due role.

It is considered a success if it can move at a speed of more than 0.5km per hour.

'Basic energy conversion device'

'A basic energy conversion device that usually provides energy for the ruins core and ancillary buildings through inefficient combustion. '

'Consumption: 400 steel, 5 units of elemental crystals. ’

Ji Lin’s eyes twitched. Why are all the blueprints provided by the system so expensive that people have no desire to continue reading them?

In other words, if he really wants to make the floating island move, he needs to get 400 steel and 5 units of elemental crystals. The territory can still get it by gritting its teeth, that is, this floating stone, which has a limited monthly output.

The source of income must be increased.

‘Floating stone base’

‘Unlocked when you have at least one floating stone engine, unlocked. ’

‘A floating stone base that is remotely controlled and bound by the core of the ruins so that it can move with the island. You can build various defense facilities on it to increase the all-round defense capabilities. ’

‘Consumption: 100 floating stones, 200 stones’

‘Load capacity: 100 meters, can be built multiple times to stack up’

The floating stone base is a good thing. 100 floating stones are exchanged for 100 meters of load capacity. You know that the current utilization efficiency of floating stones in the territory is only 4-5 units of floating stones to obtain one meter of load capacity. You can use a lower price to build defense facilities that can only be used near the core of the ruins. The disadvantage is that it can only be used near the core of the ruins.

But it is still useless to Ji Lin.

‘Aerial Feeding Ground. ’

‘Unlocked when you have at least one plant that can be used to feed cloud dwellers, unlocked. Cannot coexist with the aerial hunting ground on the same island. The existence of both will have a serious impact on the efficiency of both. ’

‘You can use this to feed cloud dwellers, attract them to gather here, and slowly improve the relationship between your own forces and the sky island creatures... They are less likely to attack you, of course, only herbivorous creatures. If your goal is to hunt them, they will be happy to get along with you. ’

‘Aerial Hunting Ground’

‘When you have at least one siege weapon that can be used on a ship, it has been unlocked. It cannot coexist with the aerial feeding ground on the same island. The coexistence of the two will have a serious impact on the efficiency of both. ’

‘You can use this to build a high-speed but incapable of long-distance wandering fishing boat, and use a special artillery net to hunt cloud dwellers that approach, which will increase the cloud dwellers' vigilance against you and cause the sky island/ship to be attacked. The gentle creatures will also show their fangs when they are threatened. ’

The cost of both buildings is 200 wood and 100 stone.

Ji Lin's eyes lit up. Finally, there is a cheap building that he can build now.

Floating stone is also needed.

Reducing resources to improve relations and reducing relations to obtain physical resources... Interesting.

After memorizing all the blueprint information, Ji Lin opened the information panel and began to check the upgrade options belonging to the outpost core.

‘Outpost core’

‘It can be upgraded and directly upgraded to an outpost with the characteristics of the current territory civilization, consuming 2000 units of steel, 4000 units of stone, and 4000 units of wood. ’

‘Expand the construction projection range to the current range of the sky island. ’

‘After upgrading the outpost, the area will be completely anchored. The outpost cannot be moved and redeployed. Are you sure?’

The outpost that cannot be moved is really nostalgic.

When they are on expedition missions, the most commonly used are various types of customized outposts.

Ji Lin looked around at the island covered with green grass, which was soon covered with stone and steel.

There are a lot of resources. The two thousand units of steel in the outpost base are already twice the resources he has invested in the construction of the sky island world. But more importantly, once the outpost base is upgraded, the outpost core cannot be redeployed unless it is actively downgraded to the outpost core to return it to a mobile state.

After confirming the removal of the outpost core of the spirit lord, the cruise fleet composed of two artillery cruisers and four carriers cleared the nearby sky islands one by one.

Every sky island within their 24-hour range was carefully patrolled and inspected.

In addition to the spirit lord who was defeated in the air encounter, the cruise fleet also found two other open areas with traces of activity. But these pioneering lands were abandoned early, with only houses covered with vines that became local animal nests, and veins that had been obviously cleared but now controlled by a small number of original animals.

These emptied veins have re-discovered a small amount of floating stone ore after months of accumulation.

These veins provide Ji Lin with a new way to obtain floating stones. He can periodically clean up the animals stationed on the floating stone veins on nearby islands to weaken the scale of animals on the islands. When the floating stones are full, patrols and miners will be sent to collect the veins.

Like taking care of plants, wait until the fruits are harvested.

In this way, they don't need to stay in one place for long-term defense, and can also obtain abundant floating stones.

To determine whether a camp is abandoned, it is to see whether there are traces of outpost cores nearby.

Without the core, without the extended nodes, the lord will lose the ability to deliver, and even the ability to recall will be cut off.

All actions of the lord in the territory depend on the core. If the core collapses, it means that the accompanying troops will not get any supplies during the month when the core is running, and double permissions will be consumed when resurrecting.

The penalty for losing the outpost core in the world mission is still serious, but in the expedition mission, losing the core means that this unit will never have the opportunity to be recalled.

Every leader of the expeditionary army also died because of this.

Taking a deep breath, Ji Lin removed these complicated thoughts from his mind.

Click the upgrade points at the back, and the resources will be deducted from the warehouse. Light streams descended from the sky, and thick and heavy fortresses made of steel and cement began to be built along the sky island. The captive adventurers were a little surprised to see this wonder falling from the sky. They had seen a building built in the light stream.

But the light stream covering one-third of the entire sky island surprised even the officers who were still working.

Ji Lin's first goal was to stabilize his current two islands, one big and one small, and fully control and develop the resources that had been eliminated from all interference.

A movable fortress was self-evident in its help to him.

Cultivate the one-third acre of land in your hands.

However, Ji Lin was still very curious about what the other lords in the fragmented world were doing...

He only defeated an elf lord and killed a genie lord, so whose camp was the last one?
