Build the Swarm Tech Tree in Konoha

Chapter 369 Invisible Creeps in Seawater

In one day, the stationmaster made a total of ninety-four round trips to bring all the core leaders to the submarine base.

At first he was able to bring back two people at once, but soon he could only come one by one, and then the speed became slower and slower. In the last ten round trips, he had to lie on the ground panting for a long time before he could get up.

When the last person was picked up, the stationmaster let out a sigh of relief and immediately fell unconscious. Aburame Tetsumaru hurriedly summoned a few work bugs to send him into the treatment cabin.

The spacecraft that completed its mission quietly retreated, and Aburame Tetsumaru cut off contact with the main base and began to fight independently.

He assigned numerous construction tasks to paratroopers and young core leaders, and worked hard to exploit the resources on the seabed.

In view of the inability to increase the production of organic matter in the deep sea, as well as the abundant resources of manganese nodules on the seabed and metal resources in volcanoes, Aburame Tetsumaru temporarily changed the design of the insect swarm.

He used a large amount of metal materials to make part of the insect's body, thereby reducing the insect's demand for organic resources and tripling the production speed of the insect colony.

The structure of the newly expanded deep sea brood has been greatly simplified, and all unnecessary parts have been eliminated. As a result, the newly appeared brood no longer has a complete appearance and looks like a hollow.

One side is expanding towards the deep sea, and the other side is spreading towards the shallow sea, actively advancing towards islands and continents in the ocean.

This kind of floc is not toxic, but it can greatly increase the viscosity of seawater, causing the light transmittance of seawater to decrease, and unexpectedly turning a hundred meters of seabed into a completely dark area, Aburame Iron Pill is in

The fungi carpet laid in shallow sea areas has become useless.

The centrifugal force generated during a rapid turn will test the torpedo's sturdiness, not to mention that it will inevitably hit the seawater without blowing bubbles after the turn.

The seawater mixed with carpet fungi reaches the sea surface through rising ocean currents, fully receives sunlight, reproduces rapidly and uses photosynthesis to create organic matter, and then returns to the seabed through the sea waterfall, returning to the released mother 45 days later.

Nest here.

It didn't take much time for Aburame Tetsumaru to find the downdraft. This kind of waterfall in the sea is a submerged belt that is more than 100 kilometers long.

And although the ocean balls are not big, they are round and difficult to handle. They have to be flattened one by one before they can be chopped and compressed. The process is quite troublesome.

After sending Uchiha Sanae away, Aburame Tetsumaru began to investigate the source of the seaweed.

"Aburame-senpai, can I ask for a reward?"

But the webmaster was already very happy. Aburame Tetsumaru was worthy of being the leader of civilization, and this move was much stronger than his own.

Because it stirs up underwater ocean currents, it brings about strong reverse surface ocean currents. When this cold water ocean current encounters another warm ocean current with low salt content, it is squeezed into a downward ocean current waterfall.

Aburame Tetsumaru took the test tube and easily confirmed through insight that it was indeed green algae. He praised the Uchiha girl loudly: "Excellent, Sanae, you have helped me a lot."

The controllability of the carpet is much easier than that of green algae. Younu Iron Pill can easily separate a large amount of organic matter and energy from the fungus in the carpet.

When a metal weapon enters magnetized seawater, it will cut the magnetic field and generate an electric current. The explosive in the weapon will be detonated in advance due to the electric shock.

"Ah, great. When launching an attack, please let me be the vanguard and be the first to attack!"

However, the cavitation torpedo is not an invincible weapon. It can only blow a large number of bubbles in front of the fish, making the torpedo actually travel through the bubbles.

Uchiha Sanae was wearing a vest, so her expression couldn't be seen, but her giggles could still let people know how happy she was.

Green algae on the sea surface appeared in the deep sea, but there was absolutely no such thing before. It can only be because the sea currents created by the electromagnetic field caused the up and down convection of the sea water, bringing the green algae down on the sea surface.

A few hours later, the material of the ocean ball produced by the omnic was fine-tuned, and there was an extra layer of film on the surface that bacteria could not eat.

Moreover, it is more difficult to clean up ocean balls because they float on the sea surface. Unlike flocs that can be cleaned through filtration in deeper water, octopus worms can only clean up these nasty ocean balls by rising to the surface of the sea.

.

"Okay, okay, I agree to your request."

Aburame Tetsumaru was well prepared for this. Insufficient energy production prevented him from deploying the electromagnetic water film shield, but there was still no problem with magnetizing seawater.

The abundance of energy causes more and more seawater to be magnetized, and the number of magnetized water electromagnetic railguns and electromagnetic water film protective shields is constantly increasing.

Aburame Tetsumaru breathed a sigh of relief. With this ocean current, he could filter seaweed from the ocean and obtain organic matter. Although the amount could not fully meet his needs, it would ultimately be a large resource supplement and limit his bottleneck.

A little faster.

During these six days, we fought back and forth with the enemy, which gave the webmaster, Gray Bones, Uchiha Sanae, Hatake Sakumo and the core leaders some time to settle down. The construction of the undersea brood expanded rapidly.

, which is ten times greater than what the previous webmaster achieved in two months.

In addition to constantly launching third-generation high-speed explosive locusts into space, he also sent swarms of insects to land on some islands and continents to test the reaction of omnics.

What followed was an explosive expansion of the insect swarm. The mother nests were like mushrooms after the rain, spreading all over the ocean, and large-scale insects were produced.

Due to the lack of photosynthesis, the production of organic matter is extremely low, which has become the biggest bottleneck restricting the development of insect colonies.

During this period, Liuxianxing persisted in launching attacks in various ways, and even used ancient cavitation torpedoes.

An octopus can clean up to several hundred ocean balls before it is killed.

The next day, hundreds of nuclear bombs were dropped on the star ring in retaliation, creating hundreds of huge mushroom clouds on the sea, but it was of no concern to the insect swarms hiding in the deep sea. The mother nest with a depth of more than two thousand meters was more

I didn't feel anything unusual.

The fungus blanket is originally a conglomerate composed of a variety of fungi. It didn't take much effort to transform it into a fungus mass invisible to the naked eye, and then released it into the seawater on a large scale, allowing these invisible fungi to flow smoothly.

Drifting away on the ocean current.

Surprisingly, relying on the existing troops and brood nest, they successfully turned from defense to offense, firmly grasping the initiative in their hands, and leading the omnic by the nose.

In response, Aburame Tetsumaru launched more than two thousand bomb locusts to counterattack the star ring in orbit, but they were all shot down by the enemy.

A torpedo traveling as fast as an airplane hits the sea water, and is destroyed by the violent impact just like an airplane hitting the sea surface.

The deep-sea area, which occupies nearly 40% of the area of ​​the Six String Star, is rapidly being weaponized, and the conditions for controlling the planet to launch a counterattack are initially in place.

But the deep sea itself is enough to block all sunlight, and Aburame Tetsumaru cannot take advantage of this vast and unobstructed sea area.

Aburame Tetsumaru knew that the direction Sanae was responsible for was the deep sea trench, and she should not get this kind of sea surface algae, so he asked: "Sanae, where did you get it?"

As night came, Aburame Tetsumaru's counterattack also followed. He did not mobilize a large swarm of insects at all, but commanded the Pompeii insects entrenched in the deep sea to dispatch five.

Five huge white mushroom clouds stood on the sea. The entire sea area was rough, but there was no sign of a ship anymore. Since then, the Six-String Star Omnic has never built any surface ships.

When the mother nest was established on the continental shelf at a depth of 600 meters, new trends were discovered by the Six-String Star Omnic, and drone bombings and space-based weapon attacks followed one after another.

Before a large-scale counterattack, Aburame Tetsumaru launched a series of exploratory attacks.

As a "god retarded" type weapon, this thing is a mass bullet. It loses its power when it loses its speed. Metal tungsten with such a high purity is a rare and precious resource, and there is no problem at all in using it directly.

Although the production cost of an octopus worm is not high, the cost of producing hundreds of ocean balls is even lower, making such an exchange very uneconomical.

Sanae pointed to the direction she was responsible for and replied: "It was scraped off the shell of the mother's nest. I found it accidentally."

Aburame Tetsumaru added a super magnetic field generator to the mother's nest, using a series of magnetic field generators to allow the magnetized seawater to flow, forming an artificial undercurrent.

Just when Aburame Tetsumaru was leading a group of young people to add filtering organs to the hollowed-out nest, an idea suddenly flashed in his mind.

Depth bombs with relatively good electromagnetic protection can only slowly descend at a speed of five to ten centimeters per second due to the huge resistance generated by electromagnetic induction, and are then easily destroyed by the sonic tower of the brood.

Aburame Tetsumaru commissioned Gray Bones to develop a bacteria that uses the material of the ocean balls as food, and the efficiency of cleaning the ocean balls was immediately satisfactory.

On the fifteenth day, the Six-String Star Omnic discovered this situation. They stopped releasing the floc, and instead produced a large number of black ocean balls, which were released on a large scale in shallow seas. These ocean balls floated on the ocean, blocking out light.

The efficiency is higher than floc.

When the cavitation torpedo enters the undercurrent, it will be impacted and turned by the lateral current. Then it will hit the sea water on the side, and then start to roll violently. After two turns at most, the torpedo will break into several sections, and the various internal parts will

Scattered everywhere.

But the most annoying thing about mechanical intelligence is that they really won't give up. They fight repeatedly with Aburame Tetsumaru's insect swarms in the sea less than a thousand meters deep. If the attack doesn't go smoothly, they keep dropping all kinds of strange things, especially

Some kind of floc of carbon molecules.

[Why should I filter this low-efficiency seaweed filter? Why does the bacterial carpet have to be one layer? 】

Until one day, Uchiha Sanae found Aburame Tetsumaruna and showed him a test tube filled with green algae.

The two sides launched an all-round confrontation around ocean lighting. As a result, the omnic side had the advantage, making it impossible to solve the organic matter production gap of the insect swarm, thus suppressing the expansion speed of the insect swarm.

Of course, no matter how large the production of ocean balls is, it will have no effect in the rough deep sea, because the waves will destroy these light and fluttering balls, and the fierce ocean currents will drive the ocean balls to a certain place to pile up, instead of letting them level off.

Spread to the entire sea surface.

At the same time, he also found an ascending ocean current at an undersea mountain range thousands of kilometers away. This is the ocean current that forms up-and-down convection.

The biggest enemy of a cavitation torpedo is the lateral impact, because the bubbles are blown forward and the sides have no corresponding capabilities. Once impacted, the torpedo will turn and lose its target.

Not to mention, the sudden use of cavitation torpedoes really caught Nana Tetsumaru off guard, and he lost two hollow brood nests.

Aburame Tetsumaru had an unlucky look on his face: "It's really not that easy to break the control of heaven. I'm afraid we have to drop millions of locusts at the same time to break through the enemy's defense limit. This exchange ratio is too bad."

These five Pompeii worms each carried a mushroom worm on their backs and slowly rose to a depth of about one hundred meters close to the sea surface.

A carpet of bacteria dissolved in seawater spanning thousands of kilometers appeared. This ocean was the new carpet of bacteria, and the bottleneck that restricted the development of the insect colony was finally broken through.

"No problem, just say whatever you want."

"Well..., I'm not bothered! I, I just want to fight, yes, that's it, I haven't had a happy fight for a long time."

"What? You've only been working for a few days and you're already impatient?"

When a brand new surface fleet came to this sea area, Aburame Tetsumaru became excited. When your plane is high above, I can't do anything to you, but can I let go of the ships floating on the water?

The arrival of this fleet is an attempt to build a large electromagnetic generating device to compete with the mother nest for control of the magnetized seawater.

The cavitation not only eliminates the resistance of the water, but also causes the magnetic force in the seawater to be turbulent and cannot form stable electromagnetic resistance. Therefore, a torpedo using a rocket engine can reach the speed of a propeller aircraft.

The Pompeii worms coordinated their positions. The four on the periphery formed a square with a side length of two kilometers, framing the entire fleet. The Pompeii worm in the center moved slightly upward, and then the five mushroom worms detonated at the same time.

During the cleanup process, it will inevitably expose itself to precision bombing by drones.

In the next ten days, Liuxianxing tried to release highly toxic, large-scale quicklime, salt and other substances in an attempt to curb the expansion of the mother nest by changing the properties of local seawater, but it obviously failed.

After this battle, Aburame Tetsumaru felt the attack depth of the Six String Star, and then he continued to expand towards shallower seas, until he reached the shallow sea with a water depth of only three hundred meters.

If you can successfully establish your own magnetic field system, you can accelerate and decelerate the currents in the entire sea area, and the insect swarm will not be able to develop with peace of mind.

More powerful space-based weapons are also unable to penetrate 600 meters of magnetized seawater. Even a tungsten rod reaching a speed of 30 kilometers per second can only penetrate more than 160 meters and then sink at a slow speed.

The insect swarm that landed on the island was simply bombed by the air force. When the insect swarm retreated, they chased them all the way to a depth of three hundred meters and stopped attacking.

But the swarm of insects trying to land on the mainland seemed to have stung a hornet's nest, causing an unprecedented violent reaction from the six-stringed star omnic.

Space-based bombing, aerial bombing, space-based laser irradiation, and even the most unsuitable god's mental retardation were all thrown away. All six insect swarms were wiped out in the shallow sea, and not a single insect could touch the coast.

Aburame Tetsumaru was stunned. He could not understand the enemy's violent reaction at all. It was illogical. He asked the stationmaster: "What is on the land? What makes the omnics of the Six String Star so nervous?"
