Knocking wonders from the space station

The number of lava snails attracted by the crust stabilization device is about a hundred.

Although it is a magical species that lives in extreme environments, its population must follow the laws of nature after all, and it is impossible to explode as many soldiers as an insect swarm.

The carapace of a lava snail is very hard, and its strength is comparable to that of a military alloy plate. Although the Marines' goblin rifles can cause some cracks when hit, it will take several people to focus their fire to kill one.

What’s even more outrageous is,

These snails are not afraid of the shock wave and high temperature of the explosion. As long as the bombardment is not powerful enough to knock them over, only the strong kinetic energy of a direct hit can hurt them.

"Aerial gunship, replace armor-piercing shells immediately!"

The three pelicans overhead immediately followed suit.

After changing the bomb, the explosions on the ground suddenly decreased a lot, but the effect of the large-caliber armor-piercing bullet was immediate.

As long as one or two shots can hit, these snails will explode from the inside like bombs, and then splash out a large area of ​​colorful ore, just like an exploded gem bag.

This discovery immediately cheered everyone up.

While everyone was firing, they speculated on the true value of these ores.

Shentang has a military merit system. Generally, 10% of the harvest in battles will be converted into corresponding credit points, which can be used to reward the soldiers participating in the battle, allowing everyone to earn some pocket money.

The current official market of Shentang is established by Donald, and there is still a lack of redeemable items.

There are generally three places where warriors’ credits go:

One is to exchange life resources and improve the quality of life;

The second is to upgrade your own equipment, wear better armor, and get better guns;

The third is to purchase implants.

With the implant, soldiers who lack corresponding talents can also gain squad-level command capabilities, or become technical sergeants, which greatly improves their salary in the military.

It can be regarded as a stable upward channel and has been recognized by the majority of soldiers.

Soon, the last lava snail was eliminated, and no snail could get within 50 meters of the stabilizing device. After all, the current marines are still elite, and it will be difficult to have such quality if they expand in the future.

Hiss... Do you want to go to old Ivan again to ask for someone?

Well, you can have this. Find a time in the future when he is in dire straits and give him a break~

…

Finally, the roar behind him gradually subsided. Looking back, he saw that only the buttocks of the originally tall stabilizer were still exposed, looking like a circular base.

This isn't the end yet.

In order to protect this valuable equipment, the second batch of support teams has been prepared on the Crescent mothership.

Lu Feng took out a compression folding door frame and unfolded it at the bottom of the valley.

A semicircular space door appeared immediately, and then a large number of SCVs carrying base modules drove out from inside, and constructed in an orderly manner around the stabilizing device.

SCV is a kind of durable space engineering robot, and the entire shelter star cluster is full of them.

It is driven by a technician and has a crawler chassis. It is equipped with a welding gun, a drill and a multi-functional robotic arm. It has a thruster installed on the back and can also be used in space.

SCV can complete most engineering construction and mining tasks. It has an independent circulation system and can work in harsh environments.

Just like now.

These scvs are building outposts around stabilization units.

The outpost includes two layers of military alloy walls, 8 automatic turrets, a high-power communication base station, a transport boat landing field, and a factory building that can cover the stabilizer.

High-power communication base stations are necessary, without which ground forces cannot communicate with the orbiting fleet.

The reason why Lu Feng was able to contact the mothership before was because the Pelican carrying them had specially enhanced airborne communication equipment and served as a signal booster to relay the signal for Lu Feng.

Otherwise, the signal of the controlling device will be blocked by dense charged clouds.

In the future, supporting facilities for power stations, such as cooling towers and substations, will also be installed in the factory.

There is a modular base production line on the Crescent mothership. A base like an outpost without much technical content is easy to build. The semi-finished products can be quickly deployed and fixed by SCV after being transported to the site.

In the eyes of Lu Feng and others, the rugged valley was quickly swept and flattened, and ground piles were driven down one by one. Then the 10-meter-high wall module was unfolded and installed between the two fixed columns.

A section of the wall was built quickly in less than 10 minutes.

The next construction will take about 6 hours. During this period, Lu Feng and the others cannot leave and must stay until the outpost has the ability to protect itself.

Sure enough, during the construction of the outpost, human movements attracted two more waves of native creatures.

One of the waves is lava snails, and the other wave is also lava snails.

Everyone discovered it.

This area should be the territory of lava snails. There are groups of large and small snails living around it. They mainly feed on various minerals and are a group of honest and hard-working natural miners.

Of course, the premise is that you don’t let them think that someone is mining on their territory!

Those crystals exploded from the corpse of the lava snail,

After testing, it contains high-purity [zeolite] and [cobalt].

Cobalt is a very important rare metal that is often used to make alloys.

Cobalt alloy has significant high temperature resistance and is an excellent material for manufacturing high-temperature components such as boilers, engines, and reactors;

For example, cobalt alloys are added to the core components of turbine engines to achieve high oxidation resistance without the need for a protective layer. Use in nuclear reactors can also greatly extend the core life.

The magnetization properties of cobalt alloys are also quite excellent. After being magnetized once, they can be demagnetized for a long time. The withstand temperature of demagnetization due to high temperature is as high as 1150°C, which is nearly 400°C higher than iron!

Therefore, cobalt alloys are widely used in accelerating coils of electromagnetic weapons.

It can be said that cobalt alloy is indispensable for any force that wants to develop electromagnetic weapons!

As for zeolite,

This is a magical alien ore that can be made into a series of industrial preparations such as high-efficiency coolants, adsorbents, ion exchangers, catalysts, etc. after being chemically synthesized through different processes.

It can greatly improve the operational efficiency of the factory.

Since the output of zeolite is not high, it is generally used in the military industry and is a strategic material that only military industry giants can afford.

at the moment,

Before Lu Feng has no new sources of energy, mass production must be converted to conventional mode.

In other words, Shentang must establish its own industrial production system as soon as possible and utilize all the production lines on the Crescent Mothership.

To this end, all resources are essential.

Collecting resources will no longer be as simple as in the creation system, where everything is uniformly converted into cornerstones.

The discovery of cobalt has solved the urgent need for electromagnetic components and heat-resistant metals, and the discovery of zeolite can greatly improve Shentang's industrial efficiency.

For example, the production of electromagnetic rifles requires the use of cobalt alloys;

For example, upgrading thermal energy magazines requires the use of zeolite.

It can be said that the discovery of these two precious resources is as significant as the smooth deployment of the crustal stabilization device!
