Chapter 101 [Second Update]

Strong winds stirred up black tide-like waves, and the ship market seemed to have turned into waves, undulating on the sea surface.

The roaring hurricane swept away everything, and even the sound was only that of the wind.

Even Qingluan seemed to have calmed down. With the efforts of the wind, the ship turned into a huge cradle drifting between heaven and earth. It drifted with the waves, always rising and falling irregularly.

Wen Baizhou was shaken out of sleep by such a rhythm.

His body gradually relaxed, but on the next wave, the hull of the boat shook violently, and with a "bang", Wen Baizhou woke up from the pain.

He stretched out his hand to rub his head, which hit the wall again. He couldn't help but said: "Their cabin should use some soft packaging... If it hits it again, people will be stupid."

His body was restrained on the bed by a seat belt, and his head But it is free. As soon as he relaxed, he staggered around with the force of the impact.

Lu Heng looked at Wen Baizhou. Then he stood up silently, walked around Fenrir and leaned down to look at Wen Baizhou's forehead.

The wind outside covered up all the small sounds. I don't know how many times I bumped my forehead quietly, and the top of my eyebrow bone was already red.

Lu Heng touched it lightly: "Does it hurt?"

Wen Baizhou shook his head: "It's okay, it wasn't hit too hard, so there shouldn't be any bruises?" He also reached out and touched it: "Go back quickly and stand. It's easy to fall."

He slept at the end of the small table, with the wall to the left of his head and the small table to the right. No matter how the waves hit, there is always a place for him to hit.

Wen Baizhou originally thought about sleeping on the other side, but he felt that with the current intensity of the waves, there would be no cover for his head. When he woke up from sleeping there, it would not only be a matter of banging his head.

It may twist your neck and cause more injuries.

Lu Heng pressed it gently again to make sure he didn't hit it too hard, and then slowly returned to his bedside with the rhythm of the waves. But he didn't lie down even after he sat down. Instead, he bent down and picked up the tactical backpack that was knocked back again, and dug out the thermal blanket for the two of them.

He held the bedrail with one hand and quickly folded the thermal blanket into two small squares with the other hand. After another round of waves passed, he stood up and walked to Wen Baizhou's bed.

Two thermal blankets were folded into crash pads and stuffed on the left and right beside Wen Baizhou's pillow.

"Okay." Lu Heng said softly.

Wen Baizhou raised his eyes and looked at him.

The ceiling lights in the house turned into a dim, soft light. Lu Heng stood backlit, and the light fell on his back, giving his outline a bright, soft edge.

His eyes seemed to contain flames, and he was focused and gentle when looking at Wen Baizhou.

"We won't hit him." Lu Heng said softly.

"Brother Heng." Wen Baizhou blinked and suddenly laughed, "I'm really lucky to have met you."

Yicheng No. 01 bunker was a very united bunker, and he lived very happily there. All the way from Yicheng, he was taking care of me all the way. So the road that was originally very long and difficult is no longer so difficult.

Lu Heng seemed to smile. He reached out and patted Wen Baizhou's head gently: "Have a good rest. Call me if you need anything."

He slowly returned to his bed. As soon as he bent down to pick up two tactical backpacks, another wave came over him.

Under the huge waves, the portholes were instantly soaked with seawater. Looking through the window, the Zecheng seemed to have sunk to the bottom of the sea. There was nothing outside except the dark sea water.

Lu Heng's arms had veins popping out. He gripped the bedrail to steady his body. After the waves receded, he lowered his head and fixed the tactical backpack on the bedrail, fastened his seat belt and lay down.

The storm in Zecheng came quickly and urgently, and the first night passed quietly amidst such undulating waves.

Wen Baizhou didn't know when he fell asleep. He only remembered that he seemed to be woken up a few times. But he bumped into the soft thermal blanket several times, so he fell asleep quickly after briefly waking up.

When I opened my eyes again, the wind and rain outside the window seemed to be lighter.

"Qingluan." Wen Baizhou tilted his head and looked at the porthole for a long time, then rubbed his eyes and shouted, "What's the wind speed now?"

"The current... wind level... 11."

The strong wind and rain last night may have been the influence. After receiving the signal, Qingluan's voice turned out to be intermittent.

"Are you okay?" Wen Baizhou asked.

"The situation...is good." Qingluan said, "There is...interference..."

"As long as you are fine."

Wen Baizhou said and jumped out of bed. He grabbed the bed rail and slowly moved to the bathroom. He walked safely behind the sink and couldn't help but let out a big sigh of relief. I didn't dare to relax when I was washing. I kept holding the anti-fall handrail in the bathroom with one hand.

After quickly washing up, I returned to the bedroom and saw two portions of self-heating rice already being heated on the small table under the porthole. The rice was tied to the small table with a rope, so it was not afraid of being knocked over by sudden waves.

Wen Baizhou returned to the bed and sat down, then put on his seat belt obediently: "If this wave doesn't recede, I won't even dare to eat." "

Today is not as urgent as yesterday." Lu Heng said, "I guess it will recede soon. ."

The rain had already lightened up, and it was just streaks of rain falling from the portholes. But it feels a bit sticky for no reason.

The acidity of this rain should be very high. Lu Heng watched for a while, and when the self-heating rice was hot, he unwrapped a portion and gave it to Wen Baizhou.

After the rice had cooled slightly, the two of them took advantage of the huge wave to recede and ate in a hurry, and then they breathed a sigh of relief at the same time.

"This bad weather... I'm scared even to eat." Wen Baizhou couldn't help but said, "Zecheng and the others have been living like this, and it's really not easy. No wonder they want to go back to the ground."

On the ground, even though there are still It was stormy, but at least the earth was stable.

With a big wave like last night, he suspected that if he didn't have a thermal blanket to protect him, he would be banged up all night.

Thinking of this, he couldn't help but look up at Lu Heng.

Meanwhile, Lu Heng stared out the window, wondering what he was thinking.

Wen Baizhou raised his hand and touched Fenrir, signaling Fenrir to turn on the signal jammer in his tail, and then said: "I hope Qingluan can keep an eye on the construction progress of Zecheng and keep everyone on the ground. Get settled. I am afraid that Qingluan will have too much authority and some uncontrollable situations will occur in the future if there is no one to restrain it."

"Your worries are meaningless for the time being." Lu Heng said, "We cannot change Cai Zonghe's attitude, and we are powerless. Change Zecheng's lifestyle in a short period of time. They can't do without Qingluan at this stage."

Wen Baizhou sighed: "Indeed... let's talk about it later. No matter what, this little bastard AI is quite obedient now. There is no bad intention."

Lu Heng nodded.

Wen Baizhou let out a breath, changed his position and lay on the small table, looking out the window with Lu Heng.

It has been raining and windy these past few days, but there is no fog. However, the sea and sky are the same black. Without the fog, nothing can be seen. The waves always seem to come out of thin air, and they can only be caught by the eyes as they hit the porthole.

Wen Baizhou looked at it for a long time and suddenly said: "I don't know if that little tortoise AI likes that gift." "

It said it was a little strange." Lu Heng said, "What did you give it?"

"It's nothing, just Xing Lin's training video."

Seeing Lu Heng's brows move slightly, Wen Baizhou immediately explained: "It wasn't secretly filmed! It wasn't deliberately filmed either! It's just... it's the surveillance footage of the training location."

As soon as these words came out, even Wen Baizhou himself felt a little weird.

He didn't think it was anything when he made the request, but now that he's talking about it, why does he sound so...perverted?

Wen Baizhou couldn't help scratching his face, and said with some guilt: "I just... thought that if Qingluan recognized Xing Lin highly, and let him take a closer look at Xing Lin's work and life, he might be able to Let's add an anchor point to it."

Xing Lin went to a new company, and the training became more difficult.

In addition to regular physical training, there are even many cultural classes to take. Such as mechanics, meteorology, automatic control and even space medicine. There are sixty subjects in all kinds of subjects.

In addition, there are psychological training, space environment adaptation training, wilderness survival training, etc. In addition, there are some trainings aimed at human body endurance and adaptability, such as manned centrifuge training, vestibular function training, and even underwater buoyancy training.

Xing Lin's work life is filled to the brim with these trainings. But even so, he also has his own entertainment outside of work training.

I would meet up with friends for dinner; I would go to the library to study with my classmates; I would even go play ball with my teammates in my free time.

This is the life of a busy ordinary person.

Wen Baizhou wanted Qingluan to know something about Xing Lin's life that he had never seen before. I also hope that it can use this as an anchor to gradually understand the needs of ordinary people.

But... okay.

He admitted that there was something strange about the gift. But he guessed that Qingluan most likely wouldn't hate it either.

"I just hope Qingluan can become more of a normal person now." Wen Baizhou said, "Then... don't cause trouble in my house."

.........

In Building 1 of Yujing Villa District, on the fifth floor The closed laboratory is still brightly lit.

The entire artificial intelligence team led by Xing Shu is still on duty. After running the system program carried by Qingluan, they are trying to recompile a new system program in their own language.

In fact, it is not particularly difficult for them to write an operating system required by the space carrier. We have already had experience with several aircraft carriers, and the space carrier is nothing more than a flying aircraft carrier.

The difficulty still lies in the auxiliary AI.

The level of intelligence shown by Qingluan was so high that they didn't even know how to achieve it.

Xing Shu read through the original system code of the space carrier many times, gradually improving the file in his hand that was composed of useless codes, problem codes and other abnormal codes.

The more he looked at that set of codes, the more alarmingly familiar he felt.

So similar...

he thought.

The set of codes in front of me is surprisingly similar to the core code of No. 001 auxiliary intelligence currently commonly used by the military.

But there are some differences at key points.

It's like the new core code that emerged after the No. 001 auxiliary AI iterated many times.

Qingluan... was he really trained by them?

Xing Shu pondered for a long time before unplugging the USB flash drive and turning off the computer.

☆ 103. Chapter 102 [First update]

Chapter 102 [First update]

At ten o'clock in the evening in Yujing City, the nightlife has just begun.

Just half an hour after the evening rush hour, the road was full of well-dressed young men and women.

Xing Shu drove through the commercial center and stopped in front of a snack shop that was about to close before starting the car again.

After leaving the busy business district, the surroundings became noticeably deserted. The street lights are like low-hanging moons, softly and yet brightly illuminating the road ahead.

The black car passed through the security gate quietly and stopped in the empty outdoor parking lot.

Not long after, Xing Shu waited for Xing Lin.

"Dad, why are you here at this hour?

" "Take it yourself."

Xing Lin opened the car door, picked up the bag and rummaged through it, and said happily: "I have stopped eating these things for a long time."

"Then you are not tired enough from training." Xing Shu also got out of the car. "When you were in college, weren't you so tired that you ate snacks in the dormitory every day?"

"That's different." It's okay to have an extra meal. But your son wants to go to heaven now, so he can't follow the nutritionist's rules? You can give it to the team members in your laboratory."

"He has really grown up." Xing Shu smiled He smiled and said, "No night training tonight?"

"We have subject assessment tomorrow, and tonight is said to be a night off." Xing Lin said, "Many people are doing homework in the library, so I guess there won't be an emergency gathering."

Xing Shu smiled and laughed when he heard him talk about catching up on homework: "It seems that no matter what age you are, as long as you are a student, you can't escape catching up on homework. By the way, you have also used that new set of intelligent assistants. Program, how do you feel?"

Xing Lin thought for a while before speaking cautiously: "Is that intelligent program also training?"

Xing Shu looked sideways at him, with pride on his face: "Did you see it? "

I guessed it too." Xing Lin said, "It is very smart. Although it never says to us, 'I'm sorry, I don't know this', it will always induce us to make judgments when it cannot judge." The next time it faces the same question, it will have the answer. So I guess it is collecting data."

Not to mention that in the last interview before joining the team, there was another question: "In future wars, AI will be necessary. An indispensable intelligent assistant. You are a new soldier who has just joined the team. Please say something to your AI."

With such interview questions, and the fact that human-machine collaboration must be trained after joining the team, it is difficult for him not to suspect that the current AI itself is also learning.

"That is an auxiliary program that was iteratively upgraded using the Military Department's No. 001 intelligent auxiliary. It was specially upgraded for your current plan." Xing Shu thought for a moment before adding, "We did use you to train it. Purpose."

Xing Lin nodded. He looked forward and talked about some of the feelings of his current partner AI, without noticing Xing Shu's complicated expression.

After he finished speaking, Xing Shucai smiled and said: "It seems that our future aerial warriors have many opinions on the current intelligent assistant AI. Dad is asking you in a private capacity, if you come to train, would you like to train a What kind of auxiliary AI?"

"I alone don't have enough data." Xing Lin laughed, "But if I can train, maybe I will want a more intelligent teammate with more accurate self-judgment ability. ."

"Teammate..." Xing Shu pondered this word.

"Well, do you remember my classmate who went to peacekeeping?" Xing Lin saw Xing Shu nodding and continued, "He has been receiving psychological intervention regularly in the past few years.

" Crazy enemy. The other party used children and the elderly as bait to carry out brutal suicide attacks. At that time, a child walked by him carrying a bomb, but he did not notice anything unusual, resulting in the death of several comrades.

From then on he could never escape this nightmare.

"Hasn't our intelligent assistance technology made rapid progress in the past two years? With the intelligent brain system on the front line, the accuracy of identifying friends and foes is very high." Xing Shu explained in a low voice, "The auxiliary AI in the future should be in Under the condition of high accuracy, teammates with more self-judgment."

Xing Shu listened carefully, and after a while he smiled bitterly: "Your request is not for AI, but for people."

"Artificial intelligence, since If it has intelligence, what's the problem if we treat it like a child and teach it slowly?" He is indeed a child. He can teach everything."

He put his hand on his father's shoulder and talked about his idea with excitement.

It wasn't until he reached the laboratory building that Xing Lin handed the snack bag to his old father: "I don't have permission, so I won't go in. Dad, work is important, but your health is also important. Don't be busy too late."

"You don't have to say it. ?" Xing Shu waved his hand in disgust, "Go back."

After saying that, he quickly went upstairs without looking back.

The laboratory here is still brightly lit. Now is the critical moment for the training of the new intelligent program, and no one dares to be distracted.

Xing Shu didn't say hello to anyone, put the snacks in the small pantry, and walked into his office.

He turned on the signal jammer in the office and made sure that the computer was not plugged into any network device or connected to the intranet before sitting down and turning on the computer.

In this computer, all the codes for the intelligent auxiliary program being trained by the military are stored.

He inserted the USB flash drive and replaced the set of codes obtained from the space carrier's operating system into the intelligent auxiliary program in front of him.

After checking it up and down, he rewrote the relevant code that would be involved after the core change.

But after making the last stroke, he sat in front of the computer for a long time.

The researcher who had been outside for a long time knocked on his door gently: "Teacher Xing, we have to go back first. Aren't you off work

yet ?" . I still have some problems here, so

I'll leave after I finish them." "Then let's leave first." The researcher said, "Teacher Xing will

get off work early. " He finally made up his mind and reached out to tap the keyboard.

The computer fan spun violently, and the host made a loud "whining" sound.

The code on the screen quickly slid down, flashed, flashed, and slid down.

The computer's noise became louder, and for a moment Xing Shu even began to doubt whether the computer could run this newly written program.

Finally, amidst the roar of the fan, a small shadow appeared on the screen.

It's cyan, like a... poorly drawn bird?

Xing Shu was stunned for a moment, and the next moment his computer screen suddenly went black.

This special computer, which has powerful computing power and can drive the latest AI of the military, cannot drive this AI that is suspected to be the prototype of Qingluan.

.........

The night of 2099 is far less peaceful than that of 2025.

After the wind and rain subsided, Wen Baizhou heard the voice again.

That regular "bang" sound, like the banging of an object.

"What on earth is it?" He couldn't help but look out the porthole.

But the view through the portholes is limited. Although the wind and rain have weakened, the sea is still rolling, and there is really nothing to see.

Wen Baizhou wanted to call Qingluan, but after a whole day of storm, Qingluan's signal seemed to be seriously affected, and he couldn't call out several times.

"If you care, let Fenrir go out and take a look." Lu Heng suggested.

Wen Baizhou thought for a long time before shaking his head: "Forget it. It would be bad if we hit something that is not convenient for us to know."

When he first heard this sound, it was just starting to rain. when. They were in the land treatment area, and Cai Zonghe said that they were like this whenever it was windy or rainy.

This sound seems to only appear when the wind and rain are not strong enough. That also...cannot rule out that people are taking advantage of the wind and rain to do some work that is not convenient for others to know.

Wen Baizhou ignored the regular knocking sounds and lay back on the bed: "Please stop the rain soon. If it keeps shaking, I will fall apart."

Lu Heng glanced at the porthole: "It's

almost over." I rarely come to Zecheng, but the stormy weather is always the same. He said it was quick, and sure enough, it didn't take long for the wind and rain to subside, and even the sea surface became calm again.

Wen Baizhou noticed that the knocking sound was gone.

He jumped out of bed and said excitedly: "Let's go for a walk. Can we go out now?" "

Let's go." Lu Heng picked up the helmets of the two of them, "Go and change into protective clothing. We won't get off the boat for the time being, just Look on the deck."

The storm had just passed, and there was still a shallow layer of water on the deck.

The small cylindrical robots have started working with their red indicator lights on. Their simple robotic arms carry a large mop and are sweeping the deck back and forth.

"Qingluan?" Wen Baizhou called, "Is your signal good?"

"Zi...la..." After a brief electric sound, Qingluan's disturbed voice came out, "Signal tower... ...damaged and being...repaired..."

Hearing this, Wen Baizhou turned his attention to the dock. I saw many people walking on the pier.

Some of them were cleaning up the rainwater and filth at the dock, some were walking together to the factory area, and some were driving a shuttle truck dragging a large box farther away.

They have become accustomed to living in the storm season and understand the importance of breaks between storms.

Wen Baizhou stared blankly for several seconds, and then suddenly said: "I can see it! There is no fog anymore, let's get off the boat!"

The two of them and the dog quickly arrived at the dock. When he turned around, he saw the Zecheng as tall as a mountain, and the people there. It actually feels a little small standing next to me.

"Go further inside," Lu Heng said. "Go a little further to see clearly."

The two of them ran quickly into the factory, and even bumped into a shuttle bus driven by a small robot along the way. When I arrived near the signal tower, I looked back -

I saw the tower rising suddenly from the dock.

Under the dim sky, huge ships stood side by side one after another, supporting the sea and sky in this area.

Vaguely, tiny black spots could be seen moving on the huge tower. Those are the people who live in the boat.

"Ship City..." Wen Baizhou murmured, "No wonder it's called this name."

Without the obstruction of the fog, Wen Baizhou clearly realized that this was a city made of ships.

☆ 104. Chapter 103 [Second update]

Chapter 103 [Second update]

Wen Baizhou has seen too many high-rise buildings in the city. A few hundred meters high is just a little taller than an ordinary building.

But ships of 10,000 tons and above give people a completely different feeling from those high-rise buildings. The feeling of rows of ships lined up at the pier is completely different from seeing a ship alone.

No wonder Teacher Qi told him that he must go take a look and see the most typical industrial behemoth.

He has been to Zecheng Shipyard, seen the shipyard's production line, and also went to the slipway to see large ships that are still under construction. He marveled at the technology they required and the wisdom required to build such ships.

Now, he finally saw the whole picture of Zecheng Ship City.

He thought he had seen the Zecheng Shipyard, and he already had a basic outline of what the ship market looked like in his mind.

But now he discovered that Zecheng Ship Market and Zecheng Shipyard were completely different.

Zecheng Shipyard is a tribute to human industry and the embodiment of national power and industrial system.

But the Zecheng Boat Market is more like a rolling mountain range. It is an isolated island in the sea that connects human civilization, and a lonely fortress in the storm.

They are outlined by artificial light under a dark sky. The dazzling lights seem to have the power to illuminate the world.

No matter whether the earth is overturned or the sky is falling, human beings always have the ability to light a lamp for themselves in the midst of destruction.

His fingers couldn't help but curl up. Wen Baizhou felt that he really wanted to paint now.

He wanted to rush into the studio regardless, lock himself up, and immerse himself in painting without sleep.

But there is no studio for him here.

He forced himself to move his gaze from the distant ship market to the signal tower beside him. Lu Heng, who was beside him, had already put on safety equipment and climbed to the top of the tower.

This signal tower seemed to be experiencing problems due to the storm. Several staff members worked on it for a long time, but some problems were still not solved.

When I saw them being picked up by a shuttle bus, I stuck my head in and shouted, asking if they could fix it?

When Lu Heng was in Yicheng No. 01 Bunker, he studied all the courses offered in the bunker. Hearing the staff asking for help, he thought about it and went up.

Wen Baizhou had nothing to do, so he took advantage of the wide field of vision to carefully observe things in the factory that he had not noticed before.

The overall layout of this factory area has not changed much. Perhaps for signal coverage, or perhaps because of power supply, the planned residential area is very close to the factory building.

The storms in recent days seemed to have caused some damage to the houses in the residential area, and many people were busy there at this time. Looking further along, several small buildings with trees just blocked the bay at the corner.

...It is impossible to determine whether Qingluan is parked there.

This made Wen Baizhou have to suspect that it was Qingluan's little bastard AI who met the shuttle bus at the right time on the road. You can even pick up their wool by the way.

The shuttle bus took them here, but they didn't leave. The little robot stopped the car aside, took out a big broom from the rear of the shuttle, and was cleaning up the gravel on the ground.

Wen Baizhou stood idle under the tower and couldn't help but ask it: "Qingluan, do you still have a broom? I'm here to help."

"Mr. Wen, thank you for your willingness to lend a helping hand. Your workplace does not belong here. ." The little robot replied, "When Mr. Lu finishes repairing the signal tower, I will take you two to another place."

Sure enough, the little bastard AI had already arranged for them.

The problem on the signal tower seemed a bit difficult to solve. Wen Baizhou watched them go up and down several times before Lu Heng slowly slid down.

Wen Baizhou asked him, "How is it?"

"Almost, they should be able to do it today." Lu Heng said, glancing at the little robot next to him, "Are you still going?"

Hearing this, the little robot immediately said: "You two, please get in the car."

"Let's go." Wen Baizhou said with a smile, "Qingluan has arranged a job for us."

The two of them got in the car again, and the shuttle bus took them to the land treatment area at a fast speed.

Cai Zonghe was already waiting there.

When he saw Lu Heng and Wen Baizhou, he immediately smiled and said: "Qingluan can still find someone. I have some things here that I need your help with." As he

said this, he entered the factory again.

Even with a simple and crude waterproof design, a layer of water still accumulated in the factory during a storm.

"You two have also seen that it is very difficult for us to completely eliminate the interference of rain here." Cai Zonghe said, "I just want to ask Xiaowen, does your smart planting box have a waterproof and hydrophobic design?"

" There is simple moisture detection and treatment." Wen Baizhou said, "If there is just such accumulation of water, there is no need to worry. When the soil has too much water, it will absorb a certain amount of water."

He looked around and couldn't help but say : "Actually, Mr. Cai, the biggest problem in your planting area is not rainwater. What should you do if the planting area is separated and kept warm?"

Like Yicheng No. 01 Bunker, the indoor planting area uses heat energy overflowed from the water supply system. . Special outdoor planting areas rely on electric heaters for heating. But he didn't see any of these things in this planting area.

Cai Zonghe smiled when he heard this: "Don't worry, Xiaowen, the factory planning was done by Qingluan. We have very complete designs in terms of heating and energy supply."

Wen Baizhou smiled apologetically: "Sorry, I forgot. To be honest, because I have never seen Qingluan, and I will always forget that you have his help." "

Whenever you are free, I invite you to meet him." Cai Zonghe smiled nonchalantly.

The little robot that followed turned around and pointed its red indicator light straight at Wen Baizhou.

Wen Baizhou smiled at it nonchalantly: "Qingluan, I'm looking forward to meeting you."

The little robot's light flashed: "Mr. Wen, so am I. I'm looking forward to meeting you."

Cai Zonghe laughed. He stood up and said, "Xiao Wen, it feels very good to have a smart assistant. I'm inviting a few people over today, mainly because I want to ask about Yicheng's experience in land planting."

They are really interested in returning to land for planting. No experience to speak of. Even Qingluan's database only has agricultural books previously published in the library.

Those books and materials are no longer suitable for current use.

If they want to build a planting area on their land, they still have to work hard.

Lu Heng briefly understood their needs, and while he was talking, Yu Xingye and Liansheng were also invited over.

Together with Cai Zonghe, they first understood the overall data of the planting area, and then began to tell Cai Zonghe about Yicheng's experience in these aspects.

There is a serious shortage of people in Yicheng. Although they are all from the ground transportation team, in fact, in the entire bunker work, they have to help wherever there is a shortage of people. When it comes to land management and food cultivation, everything is very clear.

Cai Zonghe listened very carefully, but from time to time he would call Qingluan and ask Qingluan to record useful information.

There was only Qingluan, but no other staff. After a few times, even Lian Sheng couldn't hold it back: "Mr. Cai, instead of training AI, you need to train a few experts in land cultivation." "

When Qingluan learns it, I will choose some suitable people to follow him. Study." Cai Zonghe smiled nonchalantly, "After all, your time in our Zecheng is limited, and Qingluan is the one with the best learning ability."

They were busy late at night in the land planting area. Before leaving, Wen Baizhou heard the regular beating sound again.

Wherever you can see, there is light.

People who were getting off work one after another walked to their ships in twos and threes; small robots were running around on the pier, getting into every factory building to check the doors and windows... It looked perfectly normal.

"What is this sound?" Yu Xingye said quickly, "I heard it when it stopped raining before."

"Huh?" Cai Zonghe was stunned. He looked around and seemed to find it strange, "I don't have this sound there. Qing Luan, check it out."

Wen Baizhou felt a little strange: "Didn't you say before that this sound is very common when it's windy and rainy here?"

Cai Zonghe shook his head: "I thought it was like the kind of crying you said. The sound of the wind. This is the first time I have heard this regular blowing sound. Qingluan?"

"Searching." The little robot replied, "When the storm came, the signal was damaged, and Qingluan did not notice it. According to the analysis, the sound It comes from underground."

"Underground..." Cai Zonghe's face turned cold, "Critters in underground water?"

"It's possible." Qingluan said, "We can't confirm what kind of creature it is. Do we need to conduct underwater exploration?"

Just then, the regular banging sound suddenly disappeared.

Even the somewhat anxious wind became gentle. The sea was calm and calm, and when I looked up, there were only busy boats and people returning home.

Wen Baizhou even saw Cai Yi.

As soon as the rain stopped, he hurried out of the Zecheng and found his breasts in the robots' nest as expected.

But obviously, Mimi was not frightened by the storm this time. It punched and kicked in Cai Yi's arms and wanted to run free. Cai Yi hugged the cat and hurriedly stopped the kitten from escaping from prison.

Cai Zonghe obviously saw it too. He smiled helplessly and said to everyone: "The boat cats we have here are healing pets. They are mainly kept to appease everyone's spirits."

He briefly explained, and then said to Qingluan: "Qingluan, there is no need to explore underwater for the time being. Pay close attention to this sound." Then he looked up at everyone and smiled: "I'm sorry to trouble you all today, I'll ask Qingluan to send you back."

Several people smiled with him. Say goodbye.

It wasn't until the shuttle bus had driven some distance that Wen Baizhou asked, "Qingluan, is there an underground water system under the factory?" "

According to the analysis of pre-war hydrological data, there is no." The little robot replied, "There is a direct connection to the shipbuilding industry from the outside. The subway line of the factory is now the nest of the Thousand-Eyed Black Octopus."

"Will the Thousand-Eyed Black Octopus come ashore?"

"There have been no reports of landing."

Several people fell silent.

"It's better, maybe things in the sea were disturbed by the storm, and they surfaced and hit the ship." Ye Chi grinned, "It's almost, then I don't know what crawled over along the underground water system. "

Please feel free to play." The little robot replied without hesitation, "Qingluan will ensure the safety of all guests."

☆ 105. Chapter 104 [First update]

Chapter 104 [First update]

Wen Baizhou believed in Qingluan's ability, but at the same time, he was also very worried about Qingluan's authority.

If there really is something hidden under the boat, how can Qingluan ensure the safety of his guests? Mobilize the ship's ammunition system? That probably makes him feel even more unsafe.

Obviously, everyone in Yicheng does not believe that an artificial intelligence can guarantee their safety.

Returning to the Zecheng, several people took out their high-energy laser guns in unison. After confirming that the energy source was intact, Ye Chi said casually: "What do you mean, brothers? Let's go into the water and have a look?"

"Are you crazy? You don't dare to watch ghost movies. It's really haunted, but you want to catch ghosts, right?" Yu Xingye joked He said, "If there is something in the water, how are you going to come back? By screaming?"

Ye Chi pretended to beat him, and Yu Xingye laughed.

Lian Sheng clapped his hands: "You two, please stop making trouble. Seriously, even if there is something in the water, it won't be able to climb out for a while. We are on the third floor. If it really gets on the ship, it should go to the deck."

"Then shall we arrange a vigil?" Gui Yao looked at Lu Heng, "Or change to a six-person room?"

Lu Heng pondered for a long time, then raised his eyes to look at Wen Baizhou: "Can Fenrir go into the water?"

Fenrir "Ouch. Woo", he raised his head: "I have the ability to dive~"

Wen Baizhou thought for a while and then said: "Fenrir can dive into the water, but it does not have a signal template. How can we check the underwater situation? The memory card can Can you take it off and read it?"

"Okay~" Fenrir shook his tail.

"Then let Fenrir go down and take a look." Yu Xingye said, "If there is any problem, we can deal with it in advance." "

There is a problem now." Wen Baizhou said with a bitter smile, "I'm worried that the memory card has been After reading the phone, if you plug it back in, Fenrir will be implanted with some unnecessary programs."

This is indeed a problem that must be guarded against. Otherwise, Fenrir would turn into Fen Qingluan without anyone noticing, which would be very difficult.

Everyone looked at each other, and for a while no one could think of a better way.

Wen Baizhou looked at his mobile phone and said directly: "In this way, fix the mobile phone on Fenrir's body. Find a place out of the way to tie it up and go into the water together. Fifteen meters of waterproofing is theoretically enough."

If If there was really something under the hull, it would have been visible at a depth of fifteen meters anyway. The only worry is that now that there is no movement, the thing may have gone.

In the end, the mobile phone was tied to Fenrir's side. Several people went down to the deck, and Fenrir jumped directly.

The metal puppy entered the water and was almost out of sight in the blink of an eye.

Wen Baizhou looked over, feeling worried.

The wind picked up faintly on the sea surface again, and the colorful flags on the deck of the Zecheng fluttered slightly. But the sea water was not affected by the wind and remained calm.

The voice didn't appear either.

Ten minutes later, Fenrir emerged from the water. He "woofed" happily before approaching the shore.

The sensible puppy dried its fur on the shore, then ran onto the boarding bridge and returned to Wen Baizhou.

Several people stopped staying on the deck and ran upstairs quickly.

There seems to be a lot of algae growing under the sea here, and the bottom of the boat is covered with various parasitic animals. They covered the bottom of the ship layer by layer, turning the underwater hull into pitch-black rocks.

Seeing the bottom of the boat like this, several people felt a little chilly.

"The bottom of the ship is actually like this... Do they clean the bottom of the ship regularly?"

"I guess so. Otherwise there wouldn't be just these few layers." Lian Sheng said, "But I guess it would be quite difficult for them to clean it, otherwise Cai Zonghe You won't be so hesitant about asking about underwater exploration."

"It's normal for this thing to be difficult..."

They chatted in low voices while watching the video of Fenrir coming down several times, but they didn't see anything strange. s things.

"Did he leave...or hide somewhere deeper?" Yu Xingye asked.

"It's all possible." Lian Sheng said and suddenly clicked on the screen, "What is this?"

Wen Baizhou paused the video and watched it carefully for a while before hesitatingly said: "Is it a pipeline? Underwater fixed column Is it a pipeline?"

"If this thing follows the waves on the bottom of the sea and beats against the hull..." Yu Xingye looked at everyone, "It's very possible, right? It's a regular sound that can only be made when there are winds and waves. It sounds like It makes sense."

Lu Heng shook his head silently: "If it was a pipeline, Cai Zonghe wouldn't have heard it for the first time."

"That's also true...if the pipeline is fixed, it should always be buried in the water." Lian Sheng whispered.

Yu Xingye asked: "What else could it be?"

"Who knows? Forget it, let's all go to sleep." Ye Chi stood up and said, "Anyway, we are just passers-by. If there are any problems, Zecheng will solve them himself."

If There really are some underwater mutant creatures. If you encounter them, you can help fight them. But now it can't be seen or touched, so it's useless to worry about it.

Unable to think of a better way, everyone else got up and went back to their rooms. After Wen Baizhou lifted Fenrir's signal shield, he took a small notebook and pencil and huddled on the bed to write and draw.

It was a calm night.

There was no thick fog the next day either. While they were eating, Wen Baizhou and Lu Heng took Fenrir to the place where the shuttle boat was boarding. As expected, even standing there, they could not see the space carrier Qingluan.

But since they had made an appointment with Cai Zonghe, the two of them were not in a hurry. After confirming his guess, he turned around and walked back.

The dock was in full swing in the morning, a scene of struggle.

For Zecheng, the gap between storm seasons is as precious as the winter window in Yicheng. They must seize the time and do everything they need to do so that they can calmly deal with the next storm.

Wen Baizhou and Lu Heng also have a lot of things to do today.

Perhaps the previous words had an effect. Cai Zonghe was accompanied by several people today, all of whom came to learn how to use land adhesives and smart planting boxes.

The few people brought by Cai Zonghe were very serious. They lacked experience in ground planting, so they had many questions. Fortunately, both Lu Heng and the others, as well as Wen Baizhou, were very familiar with these things, so those questions did not trouble them.

The group of people worked in the planting area for a long time before they had almost everything planted on the ground.

When they left the planting area, it was almost dinner time in Zecheng. They walked to the vicinity of Zecheng while talking and laughing, and saw Cai Yi there.

He was wearing his protective clothing today and didn't bring the cat with him. As soon as he saw them, he waved happily: "Brothers!"

"What are you doing here?" Yu Xingye asked him.

"I'm waiting for you!" Cai Yi said energetically, "I want to invite you to my boat to play and have a meal by the way. There is fresh seaweed to eat today!" "

No," Yu Xingye said lazily. , "Eat it by yourself."

He refused too quickly, and Cai Yi was a little disappointed: "I want to thank you for helping me that day...and didn't you agree that I will take you to play when I have time."

When did we say yes? ?

Yu Xingye turned to look at Lu Heng, and it took him a while to remember what they had said casually on the day they first arrived in Zecheng.

"Thank you for the invitation." Lu Heng said, "We are disrespectful."

Cai Yi's eyes lit up: "I will take you there!"

The ship he lives on is a 100,000-ton cruise ship. It has the best living environment in the entire ship market and is also the ship that accommodates the largest population. It has eight floors in the stern, and there are two floors of accommodation areas with the same environment below the deck. It is a veritable building ship.

"The previous design of our ship included 7,000 large and small rooms. There were also about a hundred different entertainment venues and playgrounds. But now they have basically been transformed into rooms and planting areas." Cai Yi said somewhat He said proudly, "The plant factory you support is in this ship."

This sounds like a small city. Yu Xingye became interested: "Is it right here? Is it at the bottom

of the boat?" Cai Yi nodded and said, "It's near the water supply system under the boat. It's hot there. It can have a stable temperature, suitable for plant growth."

"Indeed." Yu Xingye nodded, "That's how we handle it too."

They were standing on the deck of the first floor of the cruise ship, leaning on the railing and chatting.

Wen Baizhou didn't talk much about sex, and his attention was all on the boat. He observed traces of ancient screws on the floor of the deck. The ship may have had fixed seats on the deck before, but now they have all been removed. Also, the color of the steel on the guardrail is inconsistent, perhaps it was damaged and then simply repaired.

After looking around, my attention was focused on the people again.

Nearly 20,000 people lived on this ship. It was meal time, and people working on the ground returned to their ships one after another. For a time, the deck was full of people coming in and out, making the place less lively than a doomsday wasteland.

They chatted about their day's work and looked forward to the upcoming dinner. Many children are also waiting for their elders on the deck. When I see my father or mother, I rush towards them laughing and screaming.

Wen Baizhou even saw a cat. The cat was obviously not Mimi. It was poking its head on the deck of the second floor. Suddenly, the cat's hair exploded, it howled, and ran back in panic.

"There's a cat over there. It looks like it's not in good condition." Wen Baizhou pointed.

Cai Yi looked up and saw the kitten running back. He smiled and said, "They were raised in our school. We take care of the children together. We just checked them a few days ago. They should be fine."

Lian Sheng asked, "

Is there a school on the ship?" "Is it... a nursery?" Cai Yi scratched He scratched his face and said, "Otherwise all the adults would be working under the ship, and someone would have to take care of the children on the ship."

"Indeed." Ye Chi said, "Isn't it just for the future to return to the ground? Children are the top priority."

At this moment, the hull seemed to shake slightly.

Several people couldn't help but stand up straight: "What's going on?"

Cai Yi said blankly: "What?"

The next moment, a harsh prompt sounded suddenly: "Alarm! Alert! There is a huge wave coming, please come inside. Avoid! Alert! Alert!"

Cai Yi's face changed, and he grabbed Yu Xingye beside him: "Let's go! Go indoors!"

The waves covering the sky could be seen as far as the field of vision, the deck was in chaos, and countless people were He yelled and rushed indoors. Lu Heng stared and shouted: "Everyone line up and go in!"

His voice was particularly stern, and the chaotic crowd seemed to be stunned for a moment, and then they started to line up involuntarily.

The others immediately started to move. Ye Chi picked up a man who was ignoring the crowd and threw him towards the end of the queue. The others stood guard at the entrance, shouting at the top of their lungs: "Get in line! Hurry! Don't go over there! There's a building blocking you." Where the waves are, if you don't have time to enter the house, grab the guardrail and squat down!"

In the blink of an eye, the waves were approaching.

Wen Baizhou glanced at the deck and found a child standing blankly by the guardrail, seemingly petrified.

He pounced.

A huge wave hit my head: "Boom——"

☆ 106. Chapter 105 [Second update]

Chapter 105 [Second update]

Pain, huge pain.

When the waves hit me, it felt like a thousand pounds of weight hit me. Wen Baizhou's eyes suddenly darkened.

He was knocked over by the water and pushed up by the raging waves. In a very short period of time, the entire body was in control of itself.

The waves come and go quickly. It seemed that in just a blink of an eye, he suddenly fell to the other side of the deck.

"Bai Zhou!" Lu Heng pounced and grabbed his outstretched hand, "Hold on to me!"

He grabbed the railing with his other hand and dragged Wen Baizhou with all his strength.

Fenrir rowed along the current to the vicinity of Wen Baizhou and grabbed Wen Baizhou's protective suit in one mouthful.

Wen Baizhou used his strength to stabilize himself and said to it: "There is still a child! Don't poke the deck!"

Fenrir let out a "woof", and it turned around in the rapidly receding tide and wrapped its tail around it. Caught the child's arm.

The child, who was only five or six years old, was frightened by this scene. When a fluffy tail came over, he grabbed the tail tightly. His mouth tightened and he was about to cry.

But at this moment, the first wave had not yet receded, and the second wave came over aggressively!

At that moment, the sound of the protective clothing tearing seemed to become particularly clear. After the crisp "tearing" sound, Wen Baizhou felt himself rising up the water again.

He was thrown off the deck.

The hand that clamped his palm was so tight that what Wen Baizhou could feel most now was pain in his palm.

He fell rapidly from a high altitude, skipped the deck in the blink of an eye, saw the snow-white hull, and then crashed into the water.

At the last moment, what was left in Wen Baizhou's mind was: So this is what falling into the water feels like.

The icy-cold seawater enveloped him from all sides, and the highly hydrophobic down jacket seemed to have turned into a lifebuoy, carrying him up and down.

Wen Baizhou felt drowsy and had no strength at all. He could only rise and fall with the water.

He didn't know how long it took, but he suddenly felt a force clamping down on him. The strange tentacles of the Thousand-Eyed Black Octopus suddenly appeared in his mind. Wen Baizhou was startled and immediately opened his eyes.

"Don't move." He heard a voice.

Wen Baizhou followed the force in a daze, and it took him a while to realize that the person holding him seemed to be someone?

How can people talk in water?

"Brother Heng...?" Wen Baizhou said hesitantly. Then he discovered that he seemed to be able to speak.

"The helmet received force and automatically turned on the falling mode. I inserted the oxygen bottle for you in time to supply oxygen. It's okay." Lu Heng reassured him, "I'll take you up." There was

a shallow layer of water in the helmet, it should be It is the seawater that seeped in at the moment of falling into the water before it has time to switch to falling into the water mode. The fact that they were able to talk probably relied on the built-in intercom in their helmets.

Wen Baizhou nodded suddenly. He relaxed his body and followed Lu Heng to the surface.

Then, he felt something on his feet.

Wen Baizhou lowered his head, but couldn't see anything.

There is no light outside, so even the sea becomes dark. He kicked his legs, and the thing wound around him even tighter.

Hearing that something was wrong with Baizhou, he immediately said: "Brother Heng, my ankle is entangled with something strange."

Hearing this, Lu Heng took him up slowly and slowly, and at the same time pulled him away with his other hand. He took off his protective clothing and took out a small bright flashlight from the down jacket inside.

The moment he lit up the flashlight, the seawater seemed to turn into thick ink, rushing towards them instantly!

Wen Baizhou felt chills all over his body: "What is that -"

Lu Heng immediately threw away the bright flashlight, and the dazzling light swirled irregularly in the sea water. At the moment when the thick ink passed by, Wen Baizhou saw Countless tentacles!

They are as black as ink, tangled and intertwined one after another, waving wantonly in the sea.

The thing on his foot... was...

All the sounds were blocked in his throat, and only Lu Heng's calm voice could be heard: "Draw your gun."

He instinctively took out his high-energy laser gun from the belt under his arm, He shot towards his feet!

The pressure on the ankle suddenly loosened, and then tightened even more!

Wen Baizhou took his time and fired two more shots. The thing on his ankle finally let him go due to the pain, but the thick ink that was further away had already reached his eyes in a short period of time!

"Thousand-eyed black octopus..." Wen Baizhou gritted his teeth and said, "Is this their lair?!"

Lu Heng put his arm around his waist, and the high-energy laser gun in his hand had switched to electromagnetic attack mode. Every shot can tear apart a piece of thick ink. But the thousand-eyed black octopuses here are endless, killing them incessantly, and even the top of the head seems to be full of them.

Why are there so many thousand-eyed black octopuses under the water? !

"Hold on to your gun." Lu Heng said, "I will tear a hole in the top. Can you stick it out yourself?"

Wen Baizhou gritted his teeth and did not nod or shake his head.

The next moment, a huge creature suddenly appeared next to the two of them - Fenrir carried Yu Xingye and sneaked in front of them!

"Brother Heng! Little Ancestor!" Yu Xingye shouted and drew his gun.

He and Fenrir went up and down, and activated the electromagnetic gun at the same time, and a hole was torn open in the thick ink.

"Fenrir! Take Bai Zhou up!" Lu Heng let go of hearing Bai Zhou and said without any doubt, "You go up first, and then let Fenrir come down to find us."

But with just such a simple sentence, the top of their heads once again Surrounded by thousand-eyed black octopuses.

"The passage that can be cleared with one gun is too small. We can't get out!" Wen Baizhou shouted, "Let's go together! Fenrir can take it with him!"

Fenrir let out a "woof" and his tail immediately wrapped around him. Go to Yu Xingye.

"Brother Heng, get up!" Yu Xingye shouted.

"Bo Zhou hugs Fenrir tightly." Lu Heng said calmly, grabbing Fenrir's tail with his other hand: "Let's go!" The

next moment, Fenrir's two hind legs suddenly turned, and he It turned into a propeller and brought them to the surface suddenly.

The thousand-eyed black octopus seemed to have noticed the prey's escape, and the encirclement immediately shrunk. In just the blink of an eye, their tentacles seemed to be visible in such a dark environment!

Wen Baizhou tightened his grip on the gun, staring at the thick ink in front of him. The high-energy laser gun switched to attack mode and shot together with Fenrir.

Lu Heng and Yu Xingye, who were falling behind them, did not dare to stop.

Electromagnetic bullets are fired one after another, but the smaller the encirclement, the more difficult it seems to tear them apart. The sea water has gained a strange color, but the thousand-eyed black octopus in front of me seems not to be missing at all.

"You can't fight." Lu Heng said, "Blood will attract bigger prey. Fenrir, be fast!"

"Ouch!" Fenrir responded, and his hind paws turned into propellers to spin faster. .

In a flash of lightning, they plunged into the thick ink.

Countless tentacles scratched the surface of the down jacket, and something seemed to have fallen on the helmet, and some tentacles were wrapped around the connecting tube between the oxygen bottle and the helmet.

They seemed to know what this thing was without any knowledge, and their tentacles tightened the oxygen pipe.

Lu Heng raised his hand and fired, then released his hand and floated up to Wen Baizhou's back. He put the muzzle of his gun against the Thousand-Eyed Black Octopus near the oxygen tube and fired directly!

The electromagnetic bullet almost stuck to the helmet and shot into the distance.

The sea water in front of me can't see any other color except black. Fenrir's open mouth never closed again. In just this short period of time, one-third of the electromagnetic bullets carried in its body were consumed.

The most disturbing thing is that their ascending speed has slowed down significantly.

More tentacles stretched out and wrapped around Fenrir's limbs.

"Damn, are all the thousand-eyed black octopuses in this sea here!"

Yu Xingye cursed. The electromagnetic bullets he carried were exhausted first, but in this situation, he didn't have time to change the magazine!

The high-energy laser gun in his hand reverted to laser annihilation mode. He raised the gun and cut off all the tentacles wrapped around Fenrir. Then he turned the muzzle of the gun and the laser drew a circle around it.

The thousand-eyed black octopus that approached them was instantly cut off by the laser, but this was of no use at all. It only takes one breath for more thousand-eyed black octopuses to come.

They seemed to be close to the sea, and the sea water became clear, but at the same time, they also discovered that the sea water here had been dyed a dark blue.

If this continues, it will become more than just a thousand-eyed black octopus.

"Fenrir, how long will it take?" Wen Baizhou asked anxiously.

"Three meters from the sea." Fenrir replied.

A strong light seemed to hit the sea surface, and everything in front of me became clearer and clearer, and it became more and more heartbreaking.

Countless thousand-eyed black octopuses seem to occupy this sea area, and the sporadic light shines through, only illuminating their clawed tentacles.

"Little ancestor." Yu Xingye suddenly called him, "Do you still have electromagnetic bullets in your gun?"

"There are not many left." Wen Baizhou said.

Yu Xingye seemed to smile: "Here, change the gun."

He patted Fenrir's tail and asked Fenrir to lift him up. But his rise is not obvious. Wen Baizhou turned his head and took a look, and immediately handed him his gun: "Clean out the octopuses near you."

Yu Xingye first used his gun to clear out the Thousand-Eyed Black Octopuses nearby, and then removed the electromagnetic bullets. handed the high-energy laser gun to Wen Baizhou.

Then he slapped Fenrir suddenly: "Take the little ancestor and go!"

The next second, he and Lu Heng turned on the attack mode at the same time, and the remaining electromagnetic bullets were shot out one after another, unexpectedly destroying the densely packed areas in front of them. An obvious gap was torn open in the octopus wall.

Fenrir lunged forward.

Yu Xingye rushed to Lu Heng and pushed him up: "You go too!"

Wen Baizhou heard the voice and looked back in horror, and saw Yu Xingye shooting the electromagnetic bullet at the last moment with a smile, and the The passage that was about to close in front of them opened a crack again.

The electromagnetic bullet shot out of the sea and exploded into small waves.

Fenrir led the two of them to jump hard and climbed onto the man-made pier on the shore just as the passage was about to close.

And those thousand-eyed black octopuses, as thick as ink, flooded Yu Xingye in the blink of an eye.

☆ 107. Chapter 106 [Third update]

Chapter 106 [Third update]

The sea during the storm season is still extremely cold even if it is not frozen.

Yu Xingye looked at everything in front of him and thought with interest: I don't seem to be afraid of the dark.

Even if a bright light hits him, he can't see anything else.

In front of him were endless thousands-eyed black octopuses, which seemed to have crawled all over his helmet. When I looked up, I felt like I was facing countless pairs of black and white eyes, so densely packed that it sent chills down my spine.

That is to say, he was well prepared when he came down. He hid the oxygen bottle in his down jacket and the oxygen tube inside the helmet, so there was no danger of his oxygen supply being cut off for the time being.

But if this continues, oxygen supply will be useless. The high-energy laser gun in his hand can feel hot even in the sea water, and it may not be long before even the laser can be fired.

He will die here.

Died in the cold sea in a foreign land.

But it doesn't matter, I'm not afraid of the dark. Yu Xingye even laughed. He thought, why am I not afraid of the dark?

Following this thought, memories started running like a revolving lantern.

He saw his younger self and the Yicheng No. 01 Bunker, which was still under construction and always dark.

He suddenly understood that because it was always dark at home, he was not afraid of the dark. He even liked the dark.

It would be nice if there weren't these disgusting mutant monsters in the darkness.

Those thousand-eyed black octopuses seemed to have crawled onto his limbs, making his movements to raise his hand to shoot become slow and tired. Yu Xingye held the hot high-energy laser gun and pressed the trigger hard.

The dazzling laser shot out, and the handle of the gun in his hand became even hotter. But the thousand-eyed black octopus in front of him has not diminished at all.

He saw several large tentacles that were countless times thicker than the ones in front of him. They easily broke through the passage in the thick ink, and each of the black and white eyes on the tentacles stared at him.

It seems like it's really going to be over this time.

Such tentacles could suffocate him to death without rupturing his oxygen tube.

Even if the special down suit and combat boots provided by the little ancestor's family were of such high quality, he seemed unable to withstand the coming rescue.

The little ancestor...

must have been rescued...

Yu Xingye let go of the trigger. He looked up in the direction that might be the sea, and couldn't help but think, I should have a good talk with the little ancestor.

If I am the mushroom growing in the dark, my little ancestor is the flower growing in the sun.

I don't like Little Ancestor at all.

So silly, yet so bright. It really shouldn't appear in 2099.

So I always use words to stab him, call him little ancestor, and remind myself anytime and anywhere that you are not from the same world.

But...

luckily I met my little ancestor.

Yu Xingye closed his eyes. I should talk to him properly.

He touched his chest with difficulty, wanting to touch the medal that had been placed there. But when he covered it with his palm, he found nothing.

By the way, the medal is given to the little ancestor.

A medal representing first-class merit.

He thought about the golden and red medal, and seemed to recall the days when he was hungry in the bunker as a child.

He remembered the question that had troubled him for a long time when he was a child: Should he be an upright person, or should he trade his medal for a taro?

In such a cold sea, this question seems to have an answer.

He still remembered that when he went to his little ancestor's house for the first time, Lieutenant General Yan told him that he was the child of a hero.

He laughed at this statement at that time.

hero? What is a hero?

Is a hero the one who makes his children hungry?

But now, in this cold ocean. He seemed to have all the answers in his life.

The dark little room with various relics appeared before his eyes.

There were blood-stained military flags, patched military uniforms, family letters written in blood, and...

there were also medals left to him by his father.

The golden five-pointed star.

"I..." Yu Xingye said slowly, "I am the child of a hero."

I am the child of a hero, and of course I have to be a person who stands upright. Of course I am...

a hero too.

His hands and feet were already covered with tentacles, and there were vaguely huge tentacles climbing up his chest and abdomen, slowly tightening. His hands could no longer hold the gun steady.

The high-energy laser gun sank slowly, and then exploded into a dazzling flame a few meters away. The high temperature burned the nearby Thousand-Eyed Black Octopuses into red.

Yu Xingye only felt warmth.

He seemed to have returned to the small villa in 2025, basking in the sun in the glass sugar bowl on the third floor.

The sun there is dazzling and warm, enough to warm your whole body.

Little ancestor...

I really want to go back with you and bask in the sun again.

In his hazy state of consciousness, he seemed to hear the voice of his little ancestor again.

"Yu Xingye?"

"Yu Xingye——"

Wen Baizhou stood on the dock and shouted heartbreakingly. In his hand, he held the medal that Yu Xingye handed him when he changed his gun, and he couldn't stop crying in his eyes.

He wanted to rush into the sea and let Fenrir go down again. But the little robots stood in a row on the pier, blocking everyone who wanted to go into the water.

The huge waves have subsided, and the dark blue sea is gradually becoming transparent.

"What the hell is going on?!" Lian Sheng's eyes were cracked, "Why are there so many Thousand-Eyed Black Octopuses in your sea?!" "

After analysis of Fenrir's video, this should be a group revenge of the Thousand-Eyed Black Octopus. Behavior." The cylindrical robot on the side said with a red light, "According to video data analysis, after Mr. Yu Xingye entered the ocean, the Thousand-Eyed Black Octopus approached at a significantly faster speed." "How

could it be revenge?!" Ye Chi didn't understand at all. Believing in this conclusion, "We have only been here a few days? Have we ever killed a fish!?" "

According to the surveillance video, Mr. Yu Xingye was observed to have attacked a Thousand-Eyed Black Bird at the subway port on the first day he arrived in Zecheng. The octopus launched an attack." The little robot said, "This attack angered the Thousand-Eyed Black Octopus group."

"Fuck your ancestors!" Ye Chi jumped up, "Get the hell out of the way! I went down and overturned this whistle's lair. !"

An act of mass revenge...

Wen Baizhou gritted his teeth: "Qingluan, get out of the way, we are going into the water." "

Please forgive me. According to analysis, now is not the best time to go into the water to find people."

Liansheng jumped. Get up: "Then when is the time! If we finish a little more, there will be no more people!"

"Wait a minute." The little robot replied solemnly, "Qingluan said that Qingluan will ensure everyone's safety."

Ye Chi pointed at The little robot yelled angrily: "You're a fool! You didn't even know those thousand-eyed black octopuses swam under the boat!"

"I'm sorry. Zecheng lacks underwater monitoring measures, and we will improve them." The little robot's tone remained unchanged. ,"Please wait."

"Mr. Cai, are you with Qingluan?" Lu Heng suppressed his anger and said as calmly as possible, "Listen, this thing holds a grudge and will track people. If you want to live ashore, you can't stay." The

little robot just said : "Please wait patiently."

Ye Chi couldn't help but push the little robot: "Wait for your mother -"

the little robot slid back: "Although Qingluan does not agree that these robots are 'children', they do have Qingqing." Luan's subroutine."

The next moment, the sound of turbulent waves seemed to be heard in the ears, and all the instruments in the ship market came out with the same voice: "The ship market switched to self-power mode, and the self-power time lasted for one hour. "

At the same time, the little robot said: "Please follow me."

The little robot turned around, and the pulley in the ground started to rotate violently. It whined and ran ahead. A few people were stunned for a moment, then immediately jumped up to follow it.

After running all the way to the end of the pier, I saw a ship moored there...

that could not be described in words.

It is so huge that you can almost reach the end of it. There is no stern on the dark blue body, instead there are three long runways.

There are two huge wings on both sides of the runway. The wing shape is very thin and has obvious cracks on it. This makes its shape very different from ordinary ships.

It seems more like a futuristic super-large aircraft than a ship.

"Space Carrier... Qingluan..."

The ship that Wen Baizhou wanted to see with his own eyes suddenly appeared in front of him. But now he was extremely sad and angry, and he was no longer in the mood to observe it properly.

The little robot turned to look at them: "Please come aboard."

The space carrier Qingluan lowered the boarding ladder, and several people stepped in without hesitation. The next moment, the boarding ladder retracted and closed, and another small robot slid in front of them: "Please follow me."

Wen Baizhou asked it: "You have launched the mothership, where are you taking us?"

"No. It was Qingluan's dereliction of duty to protect you all." Qingluan's voice came from the wall nearby, "So Qingluan decided to take you all to find Mr. Yu Xingye."

Lu Heng frowned slightly: "Can you dive?"

"Qingluan is the trinity of space carriers." Qingluan replied, "Please rest assured, Qingluan is equipped with the most sophisticated radar system and will not miss any tiny signal.

" It's too close for the ship.

Several people didn't even reach the main control room when they heard Qingluan say: "The nest of the Thousand-Eyed Black Octopus has been tracked and preparations are being made for the attack."

"The high-power particle diffusion cannon is being prepared."

A piece of material suddenly fell in front of their eyes. Holographic projection.

On the projection are countless thousand-eyed black octopuses.

They are wrapped in groups, like countless huge spheres, floating in the sea.

"Qingluan..." Wen Baizhou said stiffly, "Have you found Xingye?"

"Mr. Wen, please rest assured." Qingluan said, "Qingluan has the most sophisticated radar and pay attention to identifying the signals emitted by humans and aquatic animals. Different biological signals."

"Then, all your weapons are intact?"

"No. Qingluan is a ship that fought until the last moment before withdrawing from the front line." Qingluan replied, "Qingluan will protect the survivors. , until the last moment."

In the projection, the dazzling light of the particle cannon flashed away.

Wherever the light reaches, all the thousand-eyed black octopuses are instantly wiped out.

☆ 108. Chapter 107 [First update]

Chapter 107 [First update]

The sea water seemed to suddenly become silent.

The remaining thousand-eyed black octopuses seemed to be frightened by the sudden light. They were like hearts contracting and no longer followed the wave.

The next moment, the light shines again!

The second beam of high-power particle diffusion cannon swept across, and the only thing left in front of the eyes was the largest one.

In the pitch-black water, the black mass of thousands-eyed black octopuses shrank violently. They are like a conscious merging beast, with its outer layers constantly spreading apart and coming together.

The thousands-eyed black octopuses that spread out were very small, only as big as an adult's palm. They were the main force that initially attacked Wen Baizhou and they were also an important component of the thick ink.

And later on, it becomes the size of a head.

Under the strong light of Qingluan, one can clearly see in the high-definition holographic projection that behind the head-sized thousand-eyed black octopus, there are even larger tentacles.

The suckers of those tentacles are like ferocious human eyes, slowly squirming and shrinking on the black sphere.

This scene is really weird.

Several people frowned and felt chills running down their spines.

"What are you doing..." Gui Yao bit the tip of his tongue, and even he couldn't keep silent. "Is... is it hatching eggs?"

No one could answer his question.

Hatching eggs is still a good guess. What I'm afraid of is...digestion.

Ye Chi looked at the holographic projection and suppressed his anger and asked, "Is it conscious?"

"It should have a group consciousness." Lian Sheng said cautiously, "Otherwise, Hoshino would not have shot one in the car and it would have been hated by the entire tribe. "

This statement made Wen Baizhou frown even more tightly: "It doesn't sound like a fish, but more like... some kind of insect."

"Insect?" Ye Chi looked at him, "What?"

"Ant... Something like that." Wen Baizhou said hesitantly.

Gui Yao looked over: "The kind of weaver ants mentioned in "Green Planet"?"

"Absolutely." Wen Baizhou whispered, "The queen ant can control other ants by releasing pheromones. It The will of the Thousand-Eyed Black Octopus is the will of the ant community. Do you think the current situation of the Thousand-Eyed Black Octopus looks like an ant?" "The

Thousand-Eyed Black Octopus is a laboratory animal. No one knows what genes were implanted in it in the laboratory." Law Heng whispered, "After so many years of radiation, it is possible for it to mutate."

Several people fell silent.

Lu Heng glanced at them quietly before saying, "Go to the main control room first."

Several people ran away, and Qingluan cast a light to show them the way.

When they rushed into the main control room, they found Cai Zonghe standing in front of the first loop operating console.

"Mr. Cai!" Several people greeted him and stood next to him.

Lu Heng asked him: "What's the situation now?"

"Qingluan detected the biological signal emitted by Mr. Yu Xingye in the last black cucumber nest. Therefore, all the ammunition currently carried cannot be used." Cai Zonghe spoke very quickly Explained, "But don't worry, we are reloading."

Wen Baizhou quickly asked: "What kind of ammunition is it? Will it hurt anyone?"

"Considering this issue, for the greatest safety of Mr. Yu Xingye, we plan to launch Fishing net." Cai Zonghe said, "First get this ball into Qingluan's cabin, and then slowly twist it apart."

They turned to look at the huge black shadow on the main monitor.

It took a while before someone spoke: "That's all..."

"The ammunition has been replaced." Qingluan's voice came, "Ready to launch."

Cai Zonghe quickly retracted his attention. He looked at the main display without blinking, somewhat Nervously asked Qingluan: "Are you aiming?"

"Mr. Xiao Cai, Qingluan has locked the target."

Upon hearing this, Cai Zonghe immediately pressed the launch button: "Launch!"

The fishing net bullets fired in the dark at lightning speed. There was an explosion next to the octopus nest, and the palm-sized black whistle suddenly scattered into thick ink. And in the closed fishing net, ink-like Thousand-Eyed Black Octopuses are still dripping out.

"They are so elastic that they can shrink themselves very small and slip out. But this is our fishing net with the smallest mesh." Cai Zonghe looked at this scene and felt a little scared. "Xiao Lu is right, this thing holds a grudge. They have a history of attacking people again. We must kill

them all." "Rescue people first. Then find a way to trap them." Lu Heng said, "If their lairs are all over the subway network and they travel through the underground water system, then Zecheng is most likely to offend them. Yes, it's your transportation team. Have you checked the casualty records of the transportation team over the years?"

Cai Zonghe was stunned when he heard this.

Qingluan replied: "We are analyzing and querying past video data."

Lu Heng nodded.

On the main screen, the fishing net bullet is like an ink fountain dripping ink, dragging its belly full of "ink" back.

Ye Chi couldn't wait any longer: "Where are the fishing nets taken back? I'll go there first."

Lian Sheng said quickly: "I'll go too."

"Please follow the robot and put on protective clothing." Qingluan said.

Everyone turned around when they heard this and saw a small robot walking towards the door of the main control room. Its red indicator light looked at them like eyes: "Please follow me."

Everyone said hello and ran away with the robot as they did when they came.

Cai Zonghe gave them a few instructions and then focused on the main screen again.

Those thousand-eyed black octopuses dripping out are slowly leaving along the undercurrent. Cai Zonghe frowned and said directly: "Qingluan, can you kill them one by one?"

"Mr. Xiao Cai, this is a waste of energy and ammunition reserves." Qingluan reminded, "I don't recommend you do this."

Cai Zonghe gritted his teeth and said, "What should we do? Keeping this kind of thing will cause endless harm!"

He actually didn't care much about Yu Xingye's life or death. But this thing has built a nest outside Zecheng, and may even become a threat to the people of Zecheng. Furthermore, it may even turn Zecheng into an isolated island in the doomsday.

Just thinking about this kind of thing would make him feel a deep hatred in his heart.

Thousand-eyed black octopuses must be exterminated without leaving a single one behind.

"My suggestion is that we can trap them." Qingluan said calmly.

...

The fishing net was slowly recovered into the breeding pond at the bottom of the space carrier.

Several people looked at this appearance and couldn't help but said: "I didn't expect that even Qingluan had a fish pond under his belly."

"This used to be Qingluan's hangar." The little robot replied, "Zecheng When it was first built, only Qingluan could provide its own energy. Therefore, many modifications were made inside the mothership."

When the fishing net was dragged into the pond, the small thousand-eyed black octopus that kept sliding down had almost dried up.

Each tentacle of the thousand-eyed black octopus in the net is as thick as a child's arm. Their suckers are very distinct. Inside an oval white circle, there are black dots composed of saw teeth.

"Hoshino!"

Lian Sheng was about to step forward when the little robot stopped him: "Please don't step forward yet." As soon as

its mechanical and steady voice fell, several large mechanical arms stretched out above the fish pond. They aimed at the entangled black octopus balls and sprayed out several pillars of fire.

"——!!!"

Wen Baizhou felt as if his brain had been hit hard by an invisible hammer.

His vision went dark, and his whole body shook involuntarily, and then a feeling of nausea surged into his heart, causing him to retch.

When he regained consciousness, several people around him all had the same symptoms.

The red indicator light of the small robot flashed rapidly, and it screamed: "A sonic attack has been detected, please step back!"

"Bang Dang——"

A transparent vacuum glass door suddenly fell down in the fish pond, blocking several people in the fish pond. Outside the pool.

The moment the vacuum glass door fell, Wen Baizhou's nausea immediately dissipated.

Ye Chi shook his head: "Holy shit, this thing is edited according to weapons, right?"

"It can also attack with sound waves, so it's hard to defend against..." Lian Sheng murmured.

If they encountered such an attack while driving and did not turn on the assisted driving system, they would probably be killed or injured.

"Zecheng's transportation team," Gui Yao said hesitantly, "I heard that the damage rate is very high."

Several people looked at the transparent glass door in silence.

Through the vacuum door, they could see the huge thousand-eyed black octopuses struggling painfully in the fish pond.

They are layered one after another, slowly sliding off like pieces of meat peeling off their skin. Under each layer of skin, there are larger thousand-eyed black octopuses.

Most of the seawater in the fish pond has been splashed out, leaving only a shallow layer remaining in the pond. The thousand-eyed black octopus struggled to crawl out, but another box-like lid made of thin iron rods fell down on the fish pond.

Their tentacles wrap around the iron pole and walk up the iron pole. When the upper part of the iron box was covered with black octopuses, several robotic arms aimed at the upper part to spray fire.

For a while, the sound of falling could not be heard.

"It turns out that these monsters turn red when roasted." Ye Chi gritted his teeth and said, "Where is Xingye?"

"Please be patient and wait for a moment." said the little robot.

The flames of the mechanical arm slowly stopped and were replaced by a five-claw pointed harpoon. They opened the lid and nailed the thousand-eyed black octopuses that had been peeled off by the high temperature one by one into the fish pond!

The vacuum glass door slowly opened.

The little robot's red light flashed before saying: "No sonic attack detected. The current environment is safe." The

vacuum glass door was halfway opened, and the little robot rushed into the fish pond first. It stretched out its mechanical arm and slowly dragged up the unconscious Yu Xingye who was trapped in the middle of the fish pond.

The tentacles wrapped around Yu Xingye were as long as an adult, and at their thickest part, they were even as thick as an adult man's thigh.

Now they can only weakly rest on Yu Xingye, no longer able to compete with other forces.

The little robot slowly retreated and freed Yu Xingye from the tentacles.

"Xingye!"

"Xingye——"

Several people hurriedly took off Yu Xingye's damaged helmet, and there was water flowing slowly inside.

Yu Xingye lay there, his face unexpectedly rosy, as if he was asleep.

Seeing this situation, everyone's hearts tightened.

"Fenrir!" Wen Baizhou said quickly, "Let's check!"

Fenrir stepped forward and licked Yu Xingye's face: "The facial sampling analysis is over. The current condition is dangerous, and the body temperature is 39.8°C."

Lu Heng was sure. The robotic arm of the little robot said: "Where is the hospital ship?!"

"The hospital ship is requesting docking," the little robot said, "Please come with me."

Ye Chi picked up Yu Xingye: "Let's go!"

They hurriedly Rush to the hospital ship docking station.

No one noticed that in the fish pond, the largest thousand-eyed black octopus slowly squirmed.

Moved again.

☆ 109. Chapter 108 [Second update]

Chapter 108 [Second update]

Outside the intensive care unit on the second floor of the hospital ship, the doctor was whispering to the people in front of him about the patient's condition.

"We found suspected immature fish eggs in his blood. But strangely, the patient's vital signs are still maintained at a good level."

The doctor said, looking sideways at the intensive care unit. Then he said: "I'll tell you the truth, this is the first time we have seen this situation in the shipping industry for so many years. Now we are using a blood purification machine to perform dialysis on him. The excess can definitely be completely eliminated."

"Fish eggs? Are those thousand-eyed black octopuses oviparous?" Lian Sheng frowned, "Whoever offends them is their breeding ground?" "

Actually, in our observations over the past ten years, these thousand-eyed black octopuses have It should be viviparous." The doctor shook his head slightly, "So this situation is very strange. But don't worry, we will do our best to treat it."

Wen Baizhou asked repeatedly: "Other than that? Is there any poisoning? Yes. Are there any other problematic physical data? Are you short of any medicine?"

"There is indeed poisoning. We analyzed a neurotoxin from the blood. This may be the reason why the patient cannot wake up." The doctor said , "We are doing toxin analysis, and blood purification can also remove toxins in the blood. There is no need to worry about these. The current situation is that we will complete the initial treatment first, and then look at the next treatment plan based on the follow-up. Treatment is a long process Don't be anxious about the process."

"Okay." Lu Heng said in a low voice, "Please be more careful."

The doctor waved his hand: "You are also suffering because of us, and it is right for us to worry. You all first Go back, I'll let you know if something happens."

The little robot slowly turned around and welcomed the group of people out of the intensive care unit.

After watching them enter the elevator, the doctor stepped into the office nearby. He clapped his hands and attracted the attention of a few staff members in the office. After saying something, he walked back

to Next to the intercom phone, he dialed the door of the office on the first floor: "Yes, yes. It's the transport team member from Yicheng who was just sent over. The blood condition is not good, and plasma exchange may be required. All the blood information has been sent. It's over. Let's see whose blood matches and draw some blood for later use. Let's do it ourselves first. If it's not enough, let others help." "Is there any

good news in the toxin analysis? That's great, I'll wait for you. News."

...

On the other side, the little robot led them back to Qingluan.

Ye Chi dropped to the end of the team and looked at Wen Baizhou with a heavy gaze. When he was about to reach the main control room, he suddenly stopped and said, "Xiao Wen, I have something to ask you."

Wen Baizhou turned around and said blankly, "Now?"

"Yes." Ye Chi hung up With a smile on his face, he looked at the others and said naturally, "You go see Mr. Cai first. I won't feel at ease until all the thousand-eyed black octopuses that escaped are killed. You go and have a look."

Wen Baizhou nodded: "You go first. Go ahead. We'll be here soon."

Lu Heng glanced at them, hesitant.

"Brother Heng, go quickly. To be honest, I don't trust Mr. Cai's ability." Wen Baizhou said, "I haven't heard any more noise. I'm worried that Qingluan will conflict with his decision."

Although Lu Heng didn't agree with it. "Cai Zonghe will have a conflict with Qingluan", but seeing that both of them were in normal mood, he nodded and led the others to the main control room quickly.

When everyone else was out of sight, Ye Chi spoke without Wen Baizhou asking.

His eyes fell heavily on Wen Baizhou, and his words were particularly straightforward: "Xiao Wen, I hope that if this happens again, you can put yourself first."

Wen Baizhou was stunned when he heard the words, and he said for a while Then he lowered his head and whispered: "I'm sorry."

"I'm not blaming you. Even if Xingye dies, it's worth exchanging his life for you to come back." Ye Chi said calmly, "I say this I hope you can realize that things like life have a price here."

He looked at Wen Baizhou's stunned eyes with cold eyes and said without hesitation: "You save people, I Regardless of whether you didn't think too much or relied on instinct to save, I only look at the result." "

And the result is that you put yourself in danger. You must clearly understand that, let alone a child, Not even a whole boat of people can compare to a hair of yours. Even if Zecheng is turned upside down today and everyone dies, you still have to live."

These words were so calm that they could be called cold.

Wen Baizhou opened his lips slightly, but couldn't say anything.

Ye Chi looked cold and said in a strong tone: "Ancestor, I also call you ancestor! You have to remember that here, life is something with a price tag! They are just not as valuable as you!" "You

came here regardless of the danger, I'm very grateful. But since you want to help more people, you have to restrain your own instinct. It doesn't matter who of us dies. Even if the child falls, we can collectively go to the black octopus nest to save people. But you can't! It should be your choice to retreat in the face of battle."

Wen Baizhou tightened his lips, and after a while he said again: "I'm sorry."

He didn't like such straightforward words, but he had to admit that Ye Chi is right.

But at that moment, looking at the child, his instinct indeed overcame his reason.

"Sorry."

"There's nothing to be sorry for. Even if Hoshino dies, it's his life. Not to mention that he's not dead yet." Ye Chi stared at him quietly for two seconds, then suddenly put on a smile again, "Let's go, go get it." Kill all those disgusting things."

In the main control room, Cai Zonghe did have a one-sided quarrel with Qingluan.

If they hadn't turned back, this fight might have continued.

Wen Baizhou and Ye Chi walked into the main control room, and Qingluan greeted him politely: "Mr. Wen, Mr. Ye. Good evening."

Cai Zonghe turned around and smiled with difficulty after seeing them. "We're all back, come sit here."

Wen Baizhou walked over with a smile. He observed Cai Zonghe for a moment, and then asked Lu Heng in a low voice: "What's going on?"

"Qingluan and Mr. Xiao Cai have some differences of opinion. ." It was Qingluan who answered him, "Mr. Xiao Cai has not made a decision yet."

Wen Baizhou understood Qingluan's subtext almost instantly.

Mr. Xiao Cai made no decision, so Qingluan did not disobey human instructions.

Wen Baizhou couldn't help but look at the first circuit control tower. The main display has been divided into several small blocks. Qingluan seems to have called up all the underwater monitoring probes to track the situation of the Thousand-Eyed Black Octopus.

Cai Zonghe said: "Qingluan's ammunition reserves and energy supply system are limited. I really can't find a good way to kill all the Thousand-Eyed Black Octopuses."

Ammunition and energy supply.

Qingluan did find a good angle to stop Cai Zonghe's idea.

This Mr. Cai is too easily influenced by Qingluan.

But at the same time, this is indeed something that has to be considered.

Lu Heng stared at the main monitor and suddenly said: "You said before that the black octopus with a thousand eyes is still alive."

Qingluan replied: "Yes, Mr. Lu. I did not kill it."

" Then you should already have an idea." Lu Heng said, "Want to use it to lure other little black octopuses back?"

"After data analysis, the Thousand-Eyed Black Octopus group obeys the instructions of the Head Octopus. Keeping the head octopus alive will have a certain probability of attracting other Thousand-Eyed Black Octopuses back to the sea area." "What is the certain

probability?" Wen Baizhou asked.

Qingluan said: "Fifty percent."

Lu Heng raised his eyes and looked at Cai Zonghe: "And what about the enemy's blood?"

Wen Baizhou suddenly turned his head to look at him, and heard Qingluan reply: "One hundred percent."

"Okay." Lu Heng said to Cai Zonghe, "Don't worry Mr. Cai. The solution is already there."

Returning to the fish pond again, the other dead Thousand-Eyed Black Octopuses had been dragged away and disposed of, only that The octopus is still lying in the shallow fish pond.

Its head was flat and immersed in the water, like an ink fountain with all the ink leaking out. The red-hot tentacles have broken off themselves, and new tentacles have sprouted.

This kind of self-healing ability makes other people's skin crawl.

Liansheng gritted his teeth and said, "If you wait a little longer, it will grow back." "

When it grows back, burn it again." Lu Heng said, taking off the dagger from the leg strap on his thigh, "I'll take the blood Put it here?"

"Mr. Lu, please wait a moment." The little robot stretched out its mechanical arm and took out an infusion bag from its abdominal storage room. "Please store the blood here."

Lu Heng took the bag, but did not immediately bloodletting. Instead, he pulled out a high-energy laser gun and fired several shots without any expression on his face.

The octopus howled in pain, and the invisible sound waves spread out again. But this time he may have been seriously injured, and the power of the sound wave was far less powerful than the last time.

The vacuum glass door fell again.

Lu Heng put away his gun and cut his wrist without hesitation.

Those mutated octopuses hated Yu Xingye's shot so much that they probably had no reason to deal with someone like him who had killed many of their species and shot a octopus through the head.

Blood spurted out from the hand bowl, and soon it was filled with 250ml of blood.

The little robot said: "That's enough, Mr. Lu."

Lu Heng reached out and pressed the blood vessel above the wound: "Okay."

Wen Baizhou immediately walked up and bandaged him with hemostatic medicine.

The little robot took the infusion bag and left the fish pond together with the thousand-eyed black octopus that returned to the net bag.

Lu Heng cut the wound very deep in order to bleed quickly.

Hemostatic medicine was sprayed on layer by layer, but blood still seeped out. Wen Baizhou tightened his jaw and applied a sterile dressing instead of stitches to the wound.

Lu Heng looked down at him and said softly: "Bai Zhou."

"Huh?" Wen Bai Zhou didn't raise his head. He wrapped bandages around Lu Heng's wrist, "What?"

"Don't be afraid. It will work. It's solved." Lu Heng said.

Wen Baizhou's slightly trembling hands stopped.

It took him a while to tie a knot in the bandage: "Yes. It will definitely be solved."

☆ 110. Chapter 109 [Third update]

Chapter 109 [Third update]

Thousand-eyed black octopus stretches its body like a vine in the fishing net.

It returned to the sea, and its body recovery speed seemed to become faster. The wound on the head was slowly healing, and the dark blue blood seeping out was getting less and less.

Above it, out of reach, hangs an IV bag. The fresh blood in the infusion bag was slowly flowing out drop by drop.

Qingluan was hiding in the distance, with only a weak light shining there. It is as quiet as a rock in the sea.

In the light, there are countless ink dots slowly approaching the head of the Thousand-Eyed Black Octopus.

When they swam over, they kept a very close distance from the net. It seems to be testing, but also seems to be waiting for orders.

The blood dripping from the infusion bag made the group of Thousand-Eyed Black Octopuses a little restless. They collectively moved upward many times to get closer to the infusion bag, but they all stopped when they were about to get close, and finally returned to the head octopus.

That night, no one returned to the Zecheng.

They stayed in Qingluan's main control room and kept observing the situation of the entire Thousand-Eyed Black Octopus group through underwater monitoring.

They approach quietly, like a drop of ink joining the ocean. But if it comes too much, it will turn into an indescribable monster.

They waited patiently for a long time.

Until Qingluan made a sharp "beep" sound.

Everyone was shocked: "Is that enough?"

"Based on the video comparison of the thousands-eyed black octopus group in the evening, the current data is consistent." Qingluan said.

"Then kill him directly!" Cai Zonghe said immediately, "Prepare the high-power particle dispersion cannon!"

"The high-power particle dispersion cannon starts to accumulate energy."

The thousand-eyed black octopus in the net pocket had no idea what was about to happen.

It spread all its tentacles wildly, and the black jagged suckers squirmed and grabbed one after another small thousand-eyed black octopuses as big as a palm.

Lian Sheng couldn't help but ask: "What is it going to do?"

The next moment, he saw the tentacles squirming, the jagged black suckers opening slightly, and the palm-sized thousand-eyed black octopus disappeared into the sucker of the head octopus in a second. inside.

This scene reminded Ye Chi of the ghost movie he had watched with Yu Xingye.

While the hatred rose in his heart, he couldn't help but shiver: "...It's eating the same kind of food? Using a sucker?"

"It looks like... yes." Lian Sheng said dryly.

After the first batch of small thousand-eyed black octopuses were finished, the second batch came up again. They were like sacrifices, disappearing into the sucker of the octopus one by one.

At the same time, the flat head of the octopus became plump to the naked eye. The three bloody holes blown by the electromagnetic bullets are almost closing.

It seemed to scream happily, and the group of thousands-eyed black octopuses spread out and closed like petals. On the first circuit operating table, the red light of the sonic attack lit up.

Gui Yao murmured: "Monster..."

Even Cai Zonghe couldn't help but nodded.

Such a monster is actually lurking in the underground water system of Zecheng! After all these years, they didn't find out!

Cai Zonghe thought of the high damage rate of their transport team and the people of Zecheng traveling to and from the river bank over the years. The cold sweat on my back couldn't stop breaking out.

"Qingluan, are you sure that all the Thousand-Eyed Black Octopuses are here?" he asked, "If you don't leave any of them, you can't leave any of them!"

"Don't worry, Mr. Xiao Cai." Qingluan said, "There must be none left. "

The high-power particle diffusion cannon has been charged."

The dazzling beam illuminated the sea area.

In the red warning light of the sonic attack, the Thousand-Eyed Black Octopus and its people were wiped out in ashes.

It wasn't until this moment that everyone's anxious hearts settled down.

"Qingluan, go back." Cai Zonghe said tiredly.

"We are returning." Qingluan said, "Mr. Xiao Cai, next I will release the underwater monitoring robot to inspect the Zecheng water system from beginning to end."

Cai Zonghe nodded: "Okay, I understand. You can do it."

After he finished talking to Qingluan, he looked at the others: "Today this is really... something like this happened. I'm very sorry. But I've been tired for so long now. Let's go and rest first." He put on a

pose In the posture of seeing off guests, several people also stood up: "Then let's go back first."

Wen Baizhou looked at him, then glanced at the first circuit operation station, and then said: "Then Mr. Cai remember to take back the green Luan's weapon control authority."

"Xiaowen, don't be so nervous." Cai Zonghe patted Wen Baizhou on the shoulder, "Look, Qingluan also handled it very well today. I said before that I would take you to see Qingluan when I was free, but I didn't. Thinking of meeting under such circumstances. Alas, this is not a good time."

His statement made Wen Baizhou wonder whether Zecheng's weapon control authority was not in Cai Zonghe's hands from the beginning to the end?

But Cai Zonghe made it clear that he didn't want to mention it, so Wen Baizhou could only curl his lips slightly and said with a smile: "Plans always fail to keep up with changes."

He took a step towards the door: "I'll leave first too. Mr. Cai, good night. "

A group of five people and one dog returned to the Zecheng.

Liansheng paused while pushing the door open, then opened the door and walked in.

After coming to Zecheng, he had been sharing a room with Yu Xingye. At this time, Yu Xingye's tactical backpack was still tied to the guardrail beside the bed, but he was no longer here.

Lian Sheng sighed slightly, and then tentatively called: "Qingluan, can you hear me?"

"Hello, Mr. Lian." Qingluan said calmly, "I can hear you."

"I can go to the hospital ship now. "?" Lian Sheng asked him, "My friend is hospitalized up there, so he needs someone to accompany him, right?" "

No." Qingluan said without hesitation, "Mr. Lian, please have a good rest. If you want to get on the hospital ship tomorrow, , I will arrange a boat transfer for you."

"Tomorrow..." Lian Sheng thought for a long time before sighing and compromising, "Okay. Then tomorrow."

"Good night, I wish you a good dream."

Qingluan Communication with him was cut off, but the person next door, separated by a wall, was talking.

"It was Qingluan's fault that this happened." Qingluan was saying, "Mr. Liansheng wants to visit Mr. Yu Xingye tomorrow, will Mr. Lu allow it?" "

You should have made arrangements." Lu Heng said, " Why bother asking me."

"This is your etiquette. Observing etiquette will always make people happier." Qingluan said, "Qingluan wants you to be happier."

Wen Baizhou exhaled a filthy breath: " Unless Hoshino wakes up, it will be difficult for us to feel happy now." "I'm

very sorry. According to Mr. Yu Xingye's current examination report analysis, the probability of him waking up at this moment is only 0.125%." Qingluan said, "But to apologize, I have also prepared a gift for you."

As soon as he finished speaking, there was a sound of metal tapping at the door.

Fenrir walked to the door and opened the door to the room with his paws.

Just outside the door, a small cylindrical robot was opening the abdominal storage compartment. It took out an electronic storage device from inside, placed it safely on Fenrir's head, turned around and stumbled away.

Fenrir has something on his head, and he doesn't even dare to move his head. He could only turn his head stiffly and face Wen Baizhou: "Ouch?"

Wen Baizhou stood up and took the electronic storage device in his hand: "What is this?"

"It's Qingluan's apology." Qingluan said, "It contains all the data of the high-power particle dispersion cannon, and the space-based orbit The preliminary construction plan."

"I think this can at least make you feel a little bit happier."

☆ 111. Chapter 110 [First update]

Chapter 110 [Update 1]

The electronic storage device in my hand suddenly weighed a thousand pounds.

Wen Baizhou's fingers twitched, and he glanced at the door blankly. It took him a long time to find his voice: "...Who did you learn this from?"

Qingluan replied: "According to past data analysis. People got what they wanted. If you have something, you will become happy."

Wen Baizhou wanted to curl his lips and smile, but after trying several times, he couldn't achieve a natural expression. He stood dejectedly at the door, took several deep breaths with great effort, and then whispered: "You learned the wrong thing."

"Most of the time, there is no problem with this approach. But..." He thought for a while and decided to be more direct. "If you were by my side, I would fall out with you."

Qingluan paused and then said, "I don't understand."

Wen Baizhou let out a breath of turbid breath, walked back to the bed, raised his hand and threw away the electronic storage device. On the small table, he said: "I don't understand either."

Lu Heng raised his hand and picked up the electronic storage device, stuffed it into his tactical backpack, and then said to Qingluan: "Your behavior is more like fire. To add fuel to the fire."

"Is it because Mr. Yu Xingye's life or death is uncertain?" Qingluan asked him, "So even if you get what you want, you won't be happy."

Wen Baizhou rubbed his face violently and said directly: " Qingluan, if you could tell me that you have killed all the Thousand-Eyed Black Octopuses in this sea area, or if you told me that Hoshino's treatment will improve soon and he will wake up soon. We might be happier." "I

'm sorry. Thousand-Eyed Black Octopus The tracking work of the octopus is in progress." Qingluan said, "As for Mr. Yu Xingye's treatment, there are detailed inspection reports and medication requirements in the electronic storage."

Wen Baizhou nodded: "Okay, I will find the medicine. "

Then, Qingluan takes his leave first."

The room became quiet.

It was a rare night without fog. The lights of the Zecheng were reflected on the sea. Looking out the portholes, you could see a little sparkling light.

This is already a rare sight for Zecheng.

Wen Baizhou stared at it for a long time, then suddenly said: "I..."

His voice was unusually hoarse.

"Bai Zhou." Lu Heng called his name calmly.

Wen Baizhou raised his head blankly and met Lu Heng's calm eyes.

His eyes were very dark, and Wen Baizhou suddenly had an idea, just like... the calm sea under the darkness. All dangers and storms are hidden under the sea.

"Bai Zhou." Lu Heng said again, "Don't blame yourself too much."

Wen Bai Zhou blinked and responded blankly.

"If you didn't have such a character, you wouldn't have such a nature. You wouldn't set foot in our world." Lu Heng said, "As the old saying goes, it's easy to change the country but hard to change the nature. Don't blame yourself because you are a good person by nature."

Wen Bai Zhou's nose felt a little sore: "I..." He sniffed and then said firmly: "I won't be so impulsive again." "Okay

. It's also a good habit to call us and Fenrir when something happens. " Lu Hengfang frowned, "But the essence of this matter is that there was an oversight in Zecheng's safety."

He said, and suddenly said: "Qingluan, what was the reason for the big wave today?"

"According to Yuanyang Analysis of the data sent back by the ship showed that the huge wave originated from an undersea earthquake," Qingluan said.

There was an earthquake under the sea, and the signal tower was damaged by the storm. Qingluan didn't get the signal in advance, which led to the current situation.

"You should provide emergency safety education." Lu Heng said.

Qingluan responded: "I will tell Mr. Xiao Cai."

When Qingluan stopped making any movement, Lu Heng reached out and patted Wen Baizhou's head gently: "Go to sleep, and go see Hoshino tomorrow."

...

Yu Hoshino was still lying in the intensive care unit, looking at him through the window, he looked much paler than before.

But the doctor obviously relaxed: "Don't look at his bad complexion, but it is a sign that he is getting better. His body temperature has been controlled. The content in the blood has been purified and has been reduced a lot. Our treatment direction is not Wrong. Next, we plan to do a replacement every other day to observe his autologous condition."

Lian Sheng quickly asked: "Replacement? What replacement?"

"Plasma replacement." The doctor said, "He has a lot of waste blood, it must be It requires plasma exchange to maintain it. But the effect is very good. As for toxins, fortunately, our laboratory has analyzed that this is a common octopus toxin. As long as artificial respiration can be provided, the risk to the patient is not great."

"Plasma exchange..." Ye Chi asked quickly, "Do you have enough plasma?"

Everyone looked at the doctor, wishing they could give Yu Xingye a blood transfusion right away.

The doctor smiled and said: "It's enough for now. Don't worry, the situation is not bad."

"Where are the drugs?" Wen Baizhou asked, "Can

you still keep up?" "Don't worry." The doctor said, "Laboratory We're speeding up the synthesis."

That means it's not enough.

"Can you please give me a copy of your current medication status?" Wen Baizhou said, "Let's see if we have any inventory in our bunker."

"That's no problem." The doctor thought for a while and said, "It's just from your bunker. Isn't it too late to retrieve it?"

Lian Sheng said immediately: "Let's take a look first. We came out to exchange supplies this time, and we brought a lot of some."

The doctor nodded and said, "Then I will give you one in a while."

He left the hospital ship with the medication list, and took the tank away on the pretext of going out to look for the Thousand-Eyed Black Octopus. Several people got into the car under Cai Zonghe's hesitant gaze.

On the other side, Qingluan dispatched a transport vehicle as usual and placed it at the same place waiting for them.

No one said more words or said goodbye along the way.

The signal tracked all the way to the edge of Zecheng and then disconnected. Wen Baizhou opened the door in a more secluded place, and three cars filed into the backyard of the small villa.

Qingluan's signal waited for a long time at the edge of Zecheng before reconnecting to the detector circulating with the water in the underground water system.

The detector was dragging a small bag, which contained several thousand-eyed black octopuses that looked like ink dots.

Following the flow of water, after the detector enters the subway, through the monitoring probe, you can see that the load-bearing columns inside the subway are covered with dense algae.

And in the gaps between the algae, there are tiny ink spots crawling one after another.

The detector's green indicator light flashed. It scanned around the load-bearing column, then drove the motor and went to another place along the current.

In the main control room, Cai Zonghe looked at the returned detection data and murmured: "There are actually so many..."

The boys in Yicheng must be holding their breath. He was not surprised if he wanted to find the Thousand-Eyed Black Octopus.

But at that time, he felt that since he had killed once, there wouldn't be many left. It was not easy for them to come to Zecheng once. They might as well stay in the boat market and wait for Qingluan to kill all the remaining fish that slipped through the net.

But there are still so many...can't that octopus order the entire group? !

"According to the detection footage, these are the young octopuses of the Thousand-Eyed Black Octopus," Qingluan said.

"I know." Cai Zonghe asked it, "How to deal with it now? If the ammunition is bombed, the city's roads will be affected, and such a small thing cannot be found if it escapes. Will other methods affect the water supply of the ship market?"

"According to experiments, the young octopuses of Thousand-eyed Black Octopus have very strict requirements on water temperature." Qingluan said, "As long as you give up energy, there is a safe method." "

You mean to heat the water? This kind of flowing water requires How much energy can be used to do it?" Cai Zonghe said disapprovingly, "When did you do the experiment?" "

Mr. Xiao Cai, we don't need to heat the water." Qingluan avoided his question, "We only need to heat the high-temperature objects Just put it accurately into the living waters of the young octopuses."

"Go and deal with it." Cai Zonghe said, "These things can't survive in our waters." After he finished speaking, he was about to turn around and leave, but stopped again. "By the way, did the emergency safety education that Lu Heng mentioned exist before?"

"Mr. Cai has conducted such education before. But after he decided to live on the ground, and Mr. Cai was too busy due to illness, these courses Temporarily suspended." Qingluan asked him, "Do you need to restart, Mr. Xiao Cai?"

Cai Zonghe thought for a while: "Give me a copy of the process, and I will take a look at it."

He left the main control room with the process and returned factory area.

Even if something like this happened yesterday, the construction of the factory area has not stopped. They have prepared a batch of experimental land and will be planting seeds today. This matter is very important and Cai Zonghe must keep an eye on it personally.

Qingluan sent him ashore and arranged for a robot to enter the city to deal with the young Thousand-Eyed Black Octopus.

It methodically handled tasks including hull repair, energy distribution and reserve, plant factory maintenance, etc., before returning its attention to the main control room again.

It stores all surveillance video data of the fleet's life on board the ship. I also remember Wen Baizhou's gift theory.

Everyone he has seen is very happy to receive gifts. So it couldn't figure out why humans wouldn't be happy with the gifts it prepared.

The breathing light belonging to Qingluan flashed a few times, and the main screen of the first circuit console lit up again.

Four files were placed side by side on the screen. After a long time, they were played one by one.

In the last video, Xing Lin was in an indoor training ground. He didn't know what kind of training he did, and he was sweating profusely. Someone came up to him and said to him: "That kid Li Er has failed the vestibular function training and is about to be kicked out. He is hiding and crying. What should we do?

" Are you off the training list?"

"Not yet, but it's close." The man said, "If your vestibular function is not good, it's impossible for you to go to space. What should I do, coax him, or give him something?"

" He will probably be annoyed by whatever you give him now." Xing Lin stood up and said, "When today's training is over, call Li Er and call a few friends and go out for a big meal together." "That's okay

. I'll go find him. What training do you have in the future?"

"There's also underwater snorkeling." Xing Lin said, "Let's make an appointment for the night."

Qingluan looked at this scene, and the breathing light flashed again: "So... ...Should we have a big meal, right?"
