National development: I build a base on the rock beast

Chapter 22 Building a Mineral Compressor

"Return the same way? There is no word coward in Zhang Qiang's dictionary! I still underestimated this point before, but we chased him all the way, we must get some benefits!"

Turning on the communication system, Zhang Qiang dialed a number.

"Mr. Zhang, I want to buy weapons..."

On the other side, Duan Ming watched the fire rock beast eating the ice crystals fed by the worker bees 24 hours a day. Just when he was feeling proud, the system sent an "alarm". The energy in the contracted creature was abnormal, please pay attention to check!

Duan Ming frowned. He only had two contracted creatures at the moment, one was the fire rock beast under his feet, and the other was the bug girl who was the Zerg base.

Duan Ming's first reaction was: Could it be that there was something wrong with the absolute obedience skill?

Calling Chong Girl to his side, Duan Ming squinted his eyes and looked at her for a long time before asking: "Chong Girl, do you feel unwilling to just follow me like this?"

The insect girl was stunned and looked at Duan Ming with confusion.

"Master, is there something I did wrong that makes you not want me anymore?"

After observing, Duan Ming did not think that the appearance of the insect girl was disguised. He checked the information of the insect girl:

Interstellar creatures: Zerg development base, scientific research type.

Current level: Level 3.

Experience value: 132 points/2000 points. Zerg building creatures gain 1 experience point every 10 minutes. You can speed up the upgrade by increasing the number of Zerg buildings you own.

Body length: 2.2m/20m, switchable form.

Skill: Zerg Communication, invalid.

Trust value: 200/100.

Talents: Appearance change, emotion simulation, basic worker hive, exploration module.

There is no problem with this trustworthiness!

Since there is nothing unusual about the insect girl, the one who caused the accident must be the Fire Rock Beast!

After touching the Fire Rock Beast's back, Duan Ming subconsciously retracted his hand, with shock written all over his face.

The temperature of the fire rock beast's back can already make it feel cold. Logically speaking, the body temperature of the fire rock beast should be maintained at around 180 degrees. Why does this happen?

Perhaps sensing Duan Ming's doubts, the insect girl whispered quietly from the side: "Master, is it because it ate too many ice crystals?"

Duan Ming was startled. Although swallowing ice crystals can quickly increase the experience value of the fire rock beast to increase its area, he did ignore the endurance capacity of the fire rock beast itself.

"Stop all the worker bees."

The insect girl controlled the worker bees and let them temporarily dock on the back of the fire rock beast, waiting for her next order. Duan Ming asked: "Insect girl, in this situation, how can the body temperature of the fire rock beast be restored again? normal?"

The insect girl thought for a moment and replied: "The fire rock beast's body temperature dropped significantly because it swallowed ice crystals. According to what the previous owner taught me, this is like human malnutrition. If you want it to restore its body temperature, give it Just eat some high-calorie minerals.”

There was a solution, but Duan Ming thought of another problem.

Turning on the communication system, Duan Ming dialed the only one in his friend list. Soon the call was connected, and Tang Yaqing's voice came from the other side: "Duan Ming? Do you have anything to do with me?"

After several trades, the relationship between Duan Ming and Tang Yaqing changed from being polite to each other to that of friends.

"I have some questions here. I want to ask you, in addition to ice ore, does your Tang Company also accept other metal ores?"

"Of course I took it. Did you refine other metal ores?"

"Yes, since you accept other metal ores, I will contact you after my metal ores are refined."

Just as he was about to hang up the call, Tang Yaqing's voice rang again.

"etc!"

Duan Ming was stunned: "Is there anything else?"

Tang Yaqing was silent for a moment and continued: "Although our Tang Company also accepts metal ore, because the volume of metal ore is much larger than that of ice ore, ordinary small spacecraft cannot hold much. If you want to sell metal Mine, it’s best to compress the metal ore first.”

When he was in Earth Star, Duan Ming was the best among the students in his batch. He naturally knew what equipment to use to compress metal ores: a mineral compressor!

After hanging up the call, Duan Ming walked to his interstellar computer. After inputting a series of instructions according to the idea in his mind, the computer began to operate: there were still 12 hours until the mineral compressor was successfully constructed.

Duan Ming didn't know the specific situation of the fire rock beast at the moment. Time is the most precious thing. He glanced at the insect girl.

"Insect Girl, shorten the construction time."

The insect girl nodded in agreement, walked to the computer, and put her hands on the computer. The next moment, the countdown on the computer ran quickly, but the dazzling time had already returned to zero.

In an open space next to the base, a building slowly formed from the back of the fire rock beast. It was a mineral compressor!

"Insect Girl, ask the worker bees to get some high-calorie metal ore and feed it to the fire rock beast."

The worker bees began to work. As some metal ore was swallowed by the fire beast, Duan Ming could clearly sense that the surface temperature of the fire beast was gradually rising.

About an hour later, the system sounded: the energy in the contracted organism returned to normal.

Duan Ming let out a sigh of relief: "It's finally normal!"

Looking towards the mineral processing center, the previously endless supply of ice ore had turned into various metal ores, and within an hour, more than a dozen cubic meters had been accumulated.

Because it was the first time to use a mineral compressor, Duan Ming always wanted to test it first to see if it was consistent with what was described in the book.

He took out one cubic meter of metal ore and put it into the mineral compressor. The compressor started running and the machine roared. Duan Ming nodded with satisfaction and was about to add more metal ore.

An accident happened!

There was a loud noise and the mineral compressor stopped running. Duan Ming checked briefly and then slapped his head:

He forgot the most critical point in the manufacturing of mineral compressors, super mineral addiction!

Compressing metal ore is essentially different from refining metal ore. It is also more difficult. The volume of metal ore is compressed, which means that its density becomes larger and it is also harder. Ordinary mineral compressors cannot withstand it at all. Can't stand how hard it is.

Only by adding super ore to the important structure can the mineral compressor operate normally.

Opening the chat area, Duan Ming asked other pioneers questions.

"Does anyone know where I can buy Super Mineral?"

This question caused the silent chat area to explode instantly.

"Oh shit! Boss Duan Ming has already begun to use super minerals?"

"Boss Duan Ming, are you going to deploy modules for the base's shield? Or are you building a starship main gun?"

"Brother Duan Ming, are you still short of pendants? I'll deliver them to your door for free, dear!"

Looking at these useless chats, Duan Minggang was about to close the chat area when a message caught his attention...
