Chapter 495: Connection and Mission

Sky Island, after the expansion of the comprehensive breeding port.

This breeding port, which was originally used to feed cloud creatures, was expanded to have multiple special air ports similar to docking ports after its purpose was determined, but the docking port is not used to berth airships... but to accommodate cloud whales.

"Get ready, docking!"

The heavy armor rotates to fix the cloud whale to a platform similar to a docking port, and the metal frame hanging down fixes the cloud whale with the hydraulic device closing, providing a stable temporary platform for the harvester... No one wants to slip halfway and fall from a height of several thousand meters.

The cloud whale reluctantly blew out a breath of hot air, sweeping across the surrounding steel frames, blowing up a piece of dust on the ground and rolling in the air.

The whale herders responsible for blood drawing and feeding had already taken protective measures and avoided the direction of the vent. A single unsatisfactory blast from a cloud whale was enough to blow an ordinary person standing in front of it three or four meters away.

They were also herders, but they were herding the wandering cloud whales and feeding them with delicious grass grown in their territory.

The suppressed grass cubes, large pieces of green grass, were sent to the cloud whales by long ropes with the sound of the steam engine turning, and the grass cubes with a large amount of other products were added to soothe the cloud whales' spirits.

They found that adding an appropriate amount of sugar and plant residue to the grass cubes could significantly make the cloud whales' emotions more stable than usual... This did not require many resources.

They are all worthless residues from the sugar factory, not so clean food for humans... The cloud whale's stomach doesn't care so much, as long as it can eat.

These big guys can eat directly from the vine forest piece by piece, no matter what is left in it, they will stuff it into their stomachs, including "protein snacks".

When the cloud whale swallows a modified grass block, the breathing rate decreases significantly, and even the rhythmic fins stop moving.

The whale herder waved and communicated to start the next step.

"Okay, let's start taking blood."

The metal needle tip installed on the mechanical device, which is as thick as a normal person's finger, moves slowly with the whale herders' movements, and moves with the blood transfusion hose connected to the back.

The surface of the cloud whale is covered with a very thick rock protective layer. The thick rock is the key to its survival in the sky island world full of dangerous creatures. The rock epidermis and the subcutaneous fat buffer layer can even withstand the direct hit of anti-armor guns.

Territory herders will use impact drills to dig out a fist-sized space on the outside of the vein in advance, and mark this position.

Then, they only need to find this area and slowly insert the long needle along the soft area that has been dug.

For a 40-meter-long cloud whale, this finger-thick long needle is like a human being bitten by an ant.

As long as you swim over, you can get the carefully selected fresh and juicy grass cubes... and you just need to let those little guys move their bodies and draw blood with the needle.

"Is this guy bigger than before...?"

A whale herder watched the soft tube gushing out and flowing quickly with faint purple spots of light. This was the product of the complex biological reaction that occurred in the body of the cloud whale after it swallowed the floating body.

The two strong hearts of the cloud whale will pump its own blood into a special blood storage container through the inserted soft tube. After the whale herder collects it, he will add special anticoagulants to maintain the normal flow of the cloud whale's blood.

The anticoagulant can be directly extracted from the ghost vine. This extremely special parasitic vine will secrete anticoagulants to make the cloud whale's blood coagulate and heal at the wound.

"Well, the cultivation method of this plant is very interesting. I will ask the tree people to see if it can be improved... As for the cultivation method, maybe we can try it..."

Li Yan climbed onto the back of the cloud whale and looked at the vines that had been harvested once, leaving only the basic roots for growth.

Tree people are experts in botany, and special plants such as vines are also beyond the scope of tree people's expertise... Their numbers are much more efficient than the elf lady fighting alone.

And he thought that he couldn't eat for free, so he had to do something to make himself look less redundant and slacking off...Lords like Li Yan and Fang Ai did not have as heavy management pressure as Ji Lin.

Tree people basically don't need to be managed, and the scale of elves and dragon-shaped towns is so small that they don't need energy.

Ji Lin and his group of people worry about the territory that has exceeded the 100,000 mark every day.

"We can use a special type of water-storage vine, but we just need to improve it a little bit, so that it can change from storing water to storing blood... Then let you plants... er, ghost vine, parasitize the water-storage plant..."

A special plant, of course, needs a special planting plan.

As for where the water-storage vine came from, of course, he brought back the seed sample from the vine island, and he didn't expect that he could use it here so soon.

"The ghost vine can penetrate the epidermis of the cloud whale, and naturally it can penetrate the vine through induction... In this way, the cost of planting ghost vines will be reduced to about 50% of the current cost."

Li Yanqing cleared his throat and began to talk to the dean who was standing beside him to receive him about the plan made by his hero unit.

"Ah... I heard..."

The dean yawned and touched his short hair which he had just combed but the ends were still a little curled and curled.

Chang Heng was responsible for the management of the Sky Island area, Alicia and Zhong were responsible for the management of the territory, and Chong Shan was responsible for the front-line work on the scene.

Wuba runs around every day for the territory's police affairs and population security issues, and the elf lady Forna... is basically nowhere to be found.

And the lord, the lord has not returned to his loyal territory, and is still in the border airspace to control the return of the sky island.

In the end, he is the only one who is still on half vacation and still has time.

So he was honored to be given the task of selecting the site of the sky island and establishing the new Joint Technology Research Institute.

By the way, entertain a certain tree lord who has arrived in the territory. Well, entertain the new lord in his spare time after selecting the site.

If Ji Lin hadn't promised him, the New Joint Technology Research Institute would not let him take on the research and organization work...

The dean watched Ji Lin issue the reverse technology research and development task, and felt that when his lord came back, he would have to start working overtime 797 hours a day again.

The arrival of Fu's computer array significantly relieved his work pressure... there are always countless research projects.

It doesn't matter, he came here by himself, and he contributed to the territory.

As long as he persists, he will persist until another scientific research supervisor is in place.

If you hold on firmly, there will be a way.

According to Ji Lin's current development progress in the territory, he will soon be able to unlock the scientific research supervisor stage.

At that time, he will be liberated!

Let the new guy feel the work pressure of this territory!

The mission of the dean is only to teach and educate people, and scientific research is not his strong point.
