Building infrastructure in a digital world

Chapter 812 812. Polar Night Storm 48
"There's something wrong with this part." Su You asked someone to come over with a high-intensity light. The light was still too dim just now, so she could only see that the connecting parts were intact, but she couldn't see anything else.

Now that there was sufficient light source, Su You quickly discovered the problem.

However, it was the manipulator who spoke first before her.

"Lord, look at the parts where this part is divided. It's very smooth, as if it was cut with something sharp." Everyone looked in the direction pointed by the control finger. Sure enough, the parts where the two parts were separated were as smooth as each other. What is cut is generally a neat straight line without any depressions.

In other words, the parts of this machine were not loose and fell off, but were cut open by something and divided into three parts... maybe even more.

"Anjie said that this machine uses high-fiber carbon steel, which is very hard. It is impossible to cut ordinary objects, let alone cut them so flatly." The flatness is like using a sharp kitchen knife to chop melons and vegetables. traces are the same.

This may seem impossible, but it does happen.

"Lord, do you think there is a possibility that there is something very sharp in the storm... When the machine was involved in the storm, the object cut the machine due to its high-speed rotation." Lyle put forward his own idea on the side. idea.

Su You nodded in agreement. She had almost the same idea, but she didn't say it out loud just now because she was afraid of scaring others.

Because as we all know, if the method of using machines to destroy the storm fails, then they will need to go into battle personally.

Humans are no better than machines. Even items such as high-fiber carbon steel with a strong strength level reaching purple can be easily cut. The item inside is at least purple quality, and may even be red or gold!

Not to mention purple, red and gold, at such a high speed, the impact of even a small stone may seriously injure a person!

If it were the past, Su You would definitely wish that the thing inside was a golden treasure.

But in this situation, Su You hoped that there would be no high-level things inside. She just wanted to quickly deal with the storm and rescue people!
"Everyone, stay calm for a moment and continue to check the situation. Don't forget that there are still six machines inside." Su You said in a deep voice.

Although she really doesn't want this situation to happen, there are some things that won't happen if she doesn't want them to happen, so she has to find a way to solve this matter now.

As she said, there are still six machines in the storm. If there are no problems with these six machines later, then there is a high probability that the extremely sharp object has been thrown out during the rotation of the storm. Or it means that the item may not exist.

The former is more likely, but the latter is not impossible. After all, they don't know what happened in the storm.

"Control the machine normally and see if you can get them back." As Su You ordered, people began to prepare a way out.

There are two escape routes she prepared. One is to dig tunnels to rescue the trapped people, and the other is to deliver the return stone to the trapped people in some way. In this way, they You can also return to the territory.

It’s just that both methods have shortcomings. The disadvantage of the first method is that it takes too long and is also very dangerous.

After all, they were digging in that direction a hundred meters away, and they had to prevent collapse, constantly placing support frames, and then slowly digging out a tunnel. During this period, they had to ensure that there were no other accidents, such as the arrival of a new tunnel. Storm, or beast, dark creature, etc.

Even if there are no external factors, they still need at least two days.

They can afford to delay it for two days. If these shadows really can't hold on, they will kill them and find a way to catch them again, but the trapped people cannot be delayed. Even if they have sufficient supplies, their mental state and morale are intangible things that cannot be supplemented by items and props.

As for the latter method, there may be some problems in its execution, but it can be successful as long as it is tried a few times. It is nothing more than using the machine, and then telling the people below to open a small entrance, and then throw all the return stones in.

But this method also has a problem, that is, Su You doesn't have so many return stones on hand.

The function of the return stone obviously cannot be made of ordinary materials. Its raw materials include the existence of space stones.

Needless to say, the rarity of the Space Stone. If it weren't for the reason of going into the sea, there would be too much uncertainty and high risk, and it would be very easy to go without returning. Suyou would not be willing to use the Space Stone to make a return stone.

Dori can now use one space stone to make ten first-level space bags, but one space stone can only make five return stones. There are nearly 300 trapped people, which means sixty space stones are needed!
Su You has seen less than sixty space stones from the first day to now!
"...Maybe there are other ways." Su You frowned and thought hard.

Just when she was in trouble, the six people controlling the machine over there came to her with good news one after another.

"Lord, Machine No. 1 has been recovered!"

"Machine No. 3 has been recovered!"

"Machine No. 4 has been recovered!"

……

Within ten minutes, six machines were recovered one after another. An Jie, who was traveling with him, brought out the machinist apprentices and quickly stepped forward to inspect the machines, and found that there were no other traces except normal scratches.

This is undoubtedly good news for everyone.

"Is that machine just a coincidence?" Someone couldn't help but ask.

Others were unsure, but they all hoped that was the truth.

"Try again, keep loading, and send the machine out in ten minutes." Su You breathed a sigh of relief when she saw that there was no obvious damage to the six machines, but she did not relax her vigilance and prepared to continue trying.

She needs to test it a few more times!
If a machine breaks down, it can still be repaired and remade, but it is gone when a person dies, so these machines can be used as experimental products. Before being completely sure, Su You really didn't dare to let people drink the potion directly. superior.

She was afraid that before the storm was resolved, a lot of people would be damaged first.

"We will fix it in ten minutes." Several apprentices wiped the cold sweat from their heads due to nervousness, and then took the time to check each machine and solve every seemingly small problem.

Ten minutes later, these six machines entered the storm as before, carrying a lot of useless but heavy garbage that Su You had dug out from various places in the territory...
