They are not fools. Naturally, they know that this matter must have been determined through multi-party consultations. If it is not contained, big problems will definitely occur later.
Therefore, it is so natural that there is still an opportunity at this time, so be fully prepared in advance.
After all, there is only one chance. Unlike other civilizations, they do not have high technology. It is very easy for them to make up for any problems in any link. Trying to make amends is simply a fool's errand. An opportunity must be grasped without any mistakes.
At this moment, in the planet, busy players are transporting resources one after another.
Players responsible for exploration use their professional knowledge to determine which areas are likely to have more resources.
After determining the approximate area, they immediately went to the site for investigation. After confirming that it is correct, mark the coordinates. Then the mining team will naturally come later.
At this moment, they are like a sophisticated machine. Everyone is performing their own duties and increasing their resource extraction as quickly as possible.
Naturally, their efforts have achieved relatively good results.
"Because our current mining volume far exceeds our previous expectations. According to the current progress, when we leave, our resource mining volume should exceed our estimate by at least 30%."
"It is even said that it can reach 40%, which means that the expansion we are building can increase the capacity by 40%, and the resources it carries are naturally needless to say."
Everyone looked happy when they saw this.
“That is to say, our resource storage room can basically be completed using this opportunity. After the resource storage room is completed, there will be other cabins in the future, so we can put all our energy into them in the next area. ”
"That's right, the most important thing for us is of course not the storage of resources, but the processing room of all our resources is the key. As long as we get this thing right, we won't have to go there later. Resources can be processed anywhere.”
In fact, if you want to sail in space for a long time, this thing is inevitable, and the reason is naturally very simple.
The spacecraft will definitely encounter various problems during its flight. Once it encounters a problem, it will need to be repaired, and the repair materials it carries can naturally be used.
However, these materials will eventually be used up, and there may also be a shortage of certain materials. In this case, if you need to use them immediately, it will be the end of the world. But with the processing room, it is completely different.
A complete production line can not only manufacture the missing things in normal times, but also ensure that they are available at critical times. Secondly, after encountering an emergency, manufacturing can be carried out immediately to solve the current problems encountered. This is the difference between having this thing and not having it.
But the size of the entire complete production line is not small.
Starting from the most basic smelting furnace, to various manufacturing workshops, raw material processing plants, etc., their spaceship must be expanded at least twice in size.
In other words, the resources needed are massive, and these resources are collected at the fourth collection point. The third collection point is a resource collection point for their new food.
Now their efficiency has improved a lot compared to before, which means that their previous plan to complete the food storage section at the fourth collection point and then add other sections can be slightly changed. They can put all the pieces into the manufacturing side of this production line.
"If this is the case, being able to complete a section ahead of schedule is definitely a great thing from our perspective."
"Everyone must know that every step we take faster now will increase our survival probability in the later stage."
"Of course there are many problems in our previous plans, because the previous planning was based on our approximate collection volume, and then we made a slightly more reasonable plan. This plan ultimately only ensures that we have a high probability of being able to follow the plan. The same. But there are still many loopholes.”
"Now our collection rate has been greatly improved, which means that we have many previous plans, which can be slightly adjusted according to the actual situation to increase our success rate."
"That's true."
"I think this material storage part can be stopped for a while. For us, manufacturing this part is the most critical, at least from the current perspective." Since the plan was changed, a player immediately said He came up with his own ideas, and there was naturally a reason why he said this. In the previous plan, he did not say that he was particularly inclined to give priority to this.
"The implementation of your plan is not very feasible. Let me tell you this. You think that food storage does not need to be so troublesome for us, but in fact it does not come in. Now you feel. It does not matter if you feel like this. Because we currently have resources in several areas.”
"After replenishing supplies at this supply point, I will go to one or two supply points and there will be food, so there is no need to worry about insufficient food, but in fact, you cannot think like this."
"Once we finish running and get everything we need from every resource point, we will have to rely entirely on ourselves. So at this point, where do you think we should find food? ”
"Now it seems that what we have built is just a storage room, but this is only a temporary storage room. After the storage room is built, we will start to arrange the most important things in it."
"A relatively complete ecological cycle, this is the real focus."
"First of all, point 1, we will look for relatively suitable external plants to cultivate here, cultivate better varieties, and ensure that the growth cycle and maturity cycle are within our acceptable range."< br>
"If this is completed, it means that we can rely on this place to supply the food we consume daily. Although it cannot 100% meet our needs, at least it can only be used with our other food reserves. Those who can survive for one year may be able to increase it to two to three years or even longer. In this case, we will have the preliminary conditions for survival in space.”
"And now this place can only be regarded as a very simple one. After the transition, it will definitely continue to expand, at least to ensure that it can be self-sufficient to meet the consumption of everyone in the spacecraft."
As he spoke, the player continued to add.
"After all, we won't be too short of food during this period, at least until we finish the route we planned. This also gives many people the illusion that we are not short of food. This is completely Wrong, when we have traveled to all the places and want to find a new place, it will be very difficult for us, because the place we are looking for now is where so many of us, including so many people from Blue Star, It took me almost 10 years to find it.”
The route that the players were looking for was actually considered by Blue Star's escape force. These planets were discovered by them, but some places were later eliminated due to various reasons.
Maybe it's because of bad luck, or maybe there are other reasons. In short, there are some places where players overlap with them, but there are many places where they are eliminated.
But no matter what the specific reason is, what is certain is that it took so much manpower and material resources to find the place, how can it be so easy to find the second place.
So people in the next place are actually very confused. They also know very well that the probability of finding it here may not be high for these reasons, so players in these areas must complete their plans.
This way, they can buy themselves enough time to find a new place.
"Well, the previous plan will definitely not change in general. What I want to consider now is actually the issue of time."
"For example, based on efficiency here, in the end we can improve it by nearly half, which means we can save half the time."
"That is to say, we can also use this method in other places to save us a lot of time, and I think the time saved will definitely be better planned in a certain sector. In this case, it is more risky than changing the plan. It will be much lower.”
"For example, our next area is to collect food, and when we go to another area, it is to continue to expand. However, each of our areas can save a certain amount of time, so we will leave early and then prepare for a certain area. The area can be expanded in more than half the time of the previous planning, which means that the area we expand will definitely be much larger than what we planned.”
"Even we can add some other facilities."
"This plan is indeed feasible. We can make some planning arrangements for the remaining areas in advance. In this case, we will definitely be able to expand the spacecraft before completing other points. In this case, the last few remaining points can be Decide how to operate based on our needs. ”
In this way, everyone was discussing, but they all knew that this spaceship was missing everything. They could only improve it bit by bit like assembling building blocks, and finally build the spaceship. whole.
Of course, their spaceship may be more than that in the future, it may be much larger than they planned and have many more functions, but now they can only take one step at a time.
This meeting lasted for a long time, and everyone finally voted after the meeting.
After all, the entire group is not just a group of people, and after some discussion, they decided to take a slightly riskier plan.
At this resource collection point, they will first complete a facility as planned, and then start planning subsequent operations.
As for the next resource collection point, because the facility for collecting various food to take away has been expanded here, the amount of stuff must be much more than they planned before, so they can stay at the next resource point for a while longer. time, collect enough food before leaving.
Of course, in addition to this, there are many detailed plans. All in all, it is natural to strive to maximize efficiency in all aspects.
In this way, time passed day by day, and soon a huge square building gradually took shape above the spacecraft.
This building is connected to the original food storage space below.
After the construction here was completed, the time stipulated by the players had not yet reached, so they fought for time to arrange some of the various materials here.
After everything was ready, the spacecraft once again embarked on the journey to the next point. At this moment, after the spacecraft set off, the interior of the spacecraft naturally began to get busy.
The new cabin requires a variety of facilities. At this time, when these facilities are manufactured, a complete ecosystem is not so easy to create, and a lot of effort is required during this period.
In this way, as time went by, related facilities were created one after another.
"Everyone, I have good news for you."
“The plant cultivation chamber we prepared previously successfully cultivated useful plants.”
"And before the first phase of pollination has been completed, there are 6 types of plants we found on the planet that grow. The growth cycles are very short, and they are completely harmless to us, and they contain It is quite rich in nutritional value and will become one of our staple foods in the future.”
Everyone smiled when they heard this. It was obvious that for them now, every additional food meant that their probability of survival was one point higher.
"Great, our previous efforts were not in vain."
"And the most important thing is that if nothing else happens, our ecosystem may be successful. This means that after we have a steady stream of food in the future, we only need to continue to expand the ecosystem, and then we will have no shortage of food. Food.”
"An area of about 3 kilometers is only a small area. It is difficult to satisfy so many of us. At least we have to continue to expand. But now it is considered good. At least it is not a state of making ends meet, and it can be reduced if necessary. The amount of food for each person to ensure survival time is not bad for us. ”
"Don't forget there are animals. Adding animals should be enough."
"Don't think too much. Animals need to consume a lot of food to grow. Meat is considered a luxury for us."
"Unless there is demand, there is no need to do this, because the price/performance ratio is too low. Although in periods when resources are relatively abundant, there are not so many worries, because the roots of some plants can be used to feed animals, but if When food becomes scarce, maybe some roots will become our food.”
At this moment, everyone was discussing with each other. (End of chapter)
