Chapter 23 Outpost Base
It was not until evening that all the personnel on the base entered the portal, and Chen Lin also took advantage of the last batch of construction personnel to enter the portal.
The green portal at the research base slowly dissipated. It was the first time for many researchers to see such a situation, and those who shouted thought that something unexpected had happened.
It was only after Professor Yu stood up and explained the situation that everyone finally calmed down.
There are not many people at Hongshan Research Base who know that they can open the portal, which is exactly in line with what Professor Yu said at the beginning that Chen Lin's identity was protected.
On the other side, as soon as Chen Lin walked out of the portal, someone immediately came up to him to confirm each other's identities.
"Please give me the things, Mr. Chen."
The man was obviously Professor Yu's assistant. Chen Lin recognized him. This guy's name was Qi Ming.
Chen Lin didn't say much and just threw the black hard drive that Professor Yu gave him to him.
Qi Ming got the hard drive and turned to leave, but was stopped directly by Chen Lin.
"What step is it now?"
Chen Lin looked up and saw that there was a large construction site in the distance, with various mechanical equipment in operation, and the roar of machinery continued.
The trees in front of the portal have long been cleared away, and the nearby areas have been crushed to flat ground. In the field of vision, there is an engineering team hardening the ground.
“The outer area of the outpost is almost completed. I don’t know exactly what the buildings inside are going to be. It looks like they are assembling prefabricated houses. It is estimated that our group of people will only do this tonight. Probably sleeping in a prefabricated room."
Qi Ming pushed up his glasses and shook the black hard drive in his hand: "I still have a task to do. It is estimated that the data transfer will take more than an hour. Time, you can take this time to walk around, I will contact you then.”
Chen Lin nodded and said hello, watching Qi Ming hurriedly turn around and disappear from sight, he then walked straight down from the portal.
All the trees in the horizontal area of at least a hundred meters in front of the portal have been cut down. The huge tree trunks are now stacked together, and transport vehicles come every few minutes to tow some away.
What is used to harden the ground is not the cement asphalt that is common on the earth, but some kind of black condensate substance. It is laid directly and then rolled over with a road roller. The road hardening of a section of dozens of meters was completed in minutes.
This black gel substance does not even need to be cooled naturally. Special personnel carry a flamethrower-like mechanical device and spray it all over, and the ground is considered to be hardened.
There is no pungent smell in the air, which really makes Chen Lin feel magical.
"You are not from the construction team, are you? Can't find where to go? You can find it by walking a few hundred meters along this road..."
Chen Lin stood there and watched. Using construction machinery to lay hardened roads, these construction engineers were quickly regarded as scattered researchers who could not find a large force.
Chen Lin smiled and nodded towards the person who spoke, and he followed the newly laid road towards the core of the permanent camp in the alien world.
After walking a hundred meters, Chen Lin noticed that there were more security personnel on both sides, and he soon met an acquaintance at the sentry position.
That person was a member of the team that entered the other world with Chen Lin before. He seemed very enthusiastic after meeting Chen Lin.
"Why are you here? Captain Yang has been talking about you for a while."
"...Captain, Mr. Chen is already here! Okay...I understand!"
This The soldier spoke aloud to the intercom on his shoulder, and received a reply from Yang Li in just a few seconds. Then he smiled and said to Chen Lin: "Let our captain take you to see What kind of projects have our people done!”
Yang Li quickly drove over in his off-road vehicle, and stopped the off-road vehicle directly in front of Chen Lin with a beautiful grace.
"You should have a more mature and steady personality, just like when I first met you." Chen Lin looked a little helpless. When he first met Captain Yang, he thought he was a An extremely steady middle-aged man, I didn’t expect that Captain Yang would already show his true nature after only knowing him for a few days.
Who would have thought that Captain Yang would have such an out-of-the-box personality!
“Haha, I’m old at heart!”
Yang Li laughed and directly motioned for Chen Lin to get in the car.
“What’s wrong with my character? I’m considered good, much better than those old-fashioned and serious people!”
Captain Yang sat in the main driver's seat and said with a smile: "If I weren't of this character, how could I have believed in the strange thing you said about opening the portal? You have to thank me after talking about it."
Chen Lin also shook his head helplessly at his words and looked out the window, just in time to see large construction machinery lifting up the chopped trees.
“All the trees in the area are not wasted at all. Some are processed on site and used as flooring and house building materials, while others are simply processed and directly wedged by pile drivers to the periphery of the divided area to serve as protective walls. "
Yang Li recovered at this time and explained to Chen Lin seriously: "This is the most important task. Although the time here is similar to that on the earth, it gets dark earlier. Quite a bit, we speculate that the sun here may set around 5:30 in the afternoon... After all, we haven’t spent the night here, so we don’t know what monsters we will encounter.”
“ Is it almost done? ”
"The outermost area has been completed in the morning, and now it is the second layer of internal defense, which is full of employee dormitories and the like."
Chen Lin nodded, My eyes noticed that there were prefabricated houses inside.
"Although it is a prefabricated house, it has water and electricity, which is much better than those of us who need to be on duty all night."
Yang Li smiled bitterly at Chen Lin and said: "Because we need to rotate, we directly implement a temporary policy, resulting in not even a few prefabricated houses allocated."
"Can't we just ask the base to send it to us tomorrow if we need it?"
"It will probably take several days!"
The vehicles are traveling very fast, and the paved roads are almost the same as those on the earth. There is almost no bumpiness when driving on them.
Chen Lin quickly saw the highlight of the first day.
He actually saw a tall building!
The gray building in the distance was obviously not fake. As the vehicle quickly approached, Chen Lin saw the entire building clearly. It actually had ten floors!
It seems that the entire building has been capped. Although the overall building is a bit weird, it is a real house building.
This thing stands alone in the dense forest. It can be seen at a glance that it is not from this world at all.
"What is that?"
Chen Lin looked at Yang Li in the driver's seat with a look of disbelief, frowned and asked, "I'll fix it in less than a day." A tall building came out, are you kidding me?”
“Nothing is impossible,”
Yang Li smiled and kicked the accelerator to the bottom of the building. He pulled the handbrake in one go and said, "This is a building that was prepared to be used as a comprehensive laboratory building. It was built modularly."
"They are basically laboratories and the like. We are going to move a group of researchers from the Hongshan Base here when the time comes!"
