Wasteland Development Diary

A bunch of names popped into Zhou Yi's head: "Information link and transmission... machine stack service? Connector? Enhanced controller?"

"None of those."

Xiao Fu said, "It's [Consciousness Nerve]."

The Weird Carrot's carrot strings?

It seemed that was indeed the case.

Consciousness Nerves could perform direct consciousness connection, even further than mobile phone voice and video, almost like a mind link.

Zhou Yi was first delighted, then immediately started calculating: "4.3 billion Consciousness Nerves, which also requires 4.3 billion naturally matured Weird Carrots. This thing has a growth cycle of two and a half months, although we have a lot of land here now, it will take several years to grow such a large quantity."

"It's not calculated that way."

The Streamtracer said: "Consciousness Nerve is a higher-level element of the same essence. Higher-level elements are compatible with lower-level elements. It can directly affect consciousness, it is a very high-level element, at least one point can be worth a large number of low-level elements."

"To conduct quantitative testing, you can use panoramic reading."

Zhou Yi immediately asked Yuanxiao to bring Robo and the carrot strings.

Ten minutes later, the Weird Carrot arrived indoors at Emerald City.

The complete carrot strings were about the thickness of a finger, the fibers were flexible and multi-porous, the structural strength was very high, and it was naturally tree-like.

Robo had twisted it into a rope shape for easier storage and use.

Zhou Yi held a carrot string.

He activated [Combat Reconstruction] again after a long absence.

Strands of green light rose from his palm, entering this Consciousness Nerve, extending and penetrating the entire structure along the complex and dense veins.

During the scanning and reading, the carrot string turned into dust and fell from between his fingers.

Zhou Yi's eyes narrowed.

Since collecting elements, it was the first time he had experienced such a strong sense of impact.

It was as if some kind of powerful hormone had been injected into his body, and he could feel some kind of torrent surging through him, to the point where he physiologically produced an uncontrollable sense of excitement.

However, it was still necessary to determine how many element shares the Consciousness Nerve provided.

Zhou Yi thought of a way.

He first went to the cabinet next to him and took a mobile phone.

Panoramic reading.

[This substance has a certain information transmission capability.]

Zhou Yi looked at the carrot string again.

[This substance has a certain consciousness transmission capability.]

He asked T on his left shoulder: "Give me a quantitative comparison of these two elements."

The Rock Core Clan said: "Please put the two together, unfold the ability at the same time, and correlate them."

"The current description is basic, as long as you continue this ability, you can see more quantitative information. It's just that the energy consumption will be a bit high."

Zhou Yi stared at the phone and the carrot string.

Energy began to be consumed rapidly.

About 1 minute later.

The phone displayed.

[Consciousness Conversion Rate: 0.00003%]

The carrot string's text was.

[Consciousness Conversion Rate: 4.51207%]

T explained: "Information is an extension of consciousness after encapsulation, and there will be inevitable errors and delays in transmission."

"Consciousness Nerve is direct consciousness transmission, which is more accurate and faster."

"Using the common parameter of consciousness conversion rate to evaluate, you can compare the elemental effects of the two."

Zhou Yi asked: "Then can it be understood that a single Consciousness Nerve carries the equivalent elements of 150,000 mobile phones?"

"Yes."

T said: "The consciousness conversion rate is the result obtained by using the local Great Saint Spirit as a reflection, which is also the most accurate scale in every world."

"In summary, it can be considered that 1 complete Consciousness Nerve carries the same elements as 150402.333 mobile phones can provide."

Zhou Yi was overjoyed.

A 1:150,000 ratio.

Based on this calculation, as long as 28,667 mature Weird Carrots are cultivated, they can be worth 4.3 billion mobile phones.

Zhou Yi asked Robo next to him: "How many Weird Carrots and carrot strings does Emerald City have?"

"Chairman, currently there are a total of 5221 Weird Carrots in the farmland, and a total of 2411 carrot strings have been collected."

The quantity was still far from enough.

Zhou Yi said: "How long will it take to obtain 29,000 carrot strings? Give me a time."

Robo was stunned for a moment: "Chairman, I don't know, I can't count. I can only count them one by one. I wrote down these numbers on myself."

Zhou Yi facepalmed.

He forgot that this guy was only born recently, and his cultural knowledge was not even at the kindergarten level.

He could only find the Minister of Agriculture, Zheng Tao.

"Chairman, because of the advancement of the Consciousness Nerve project, the current area for planting carrots is about 800 acres, and each 10 acres can produce 80 mature Weird Carrots."

"They have a long growth period, and even with soil sealing effects, it takes about 5 months to fully mature, and they require a lot of fertilizer, twice as much as ordinary carrots, and they can grow two crops a year. Calculated, 800 acres can produce 12,800 Weird Carrots per year."

Zhou Yi frowned.

He would have to wait more than two years to collect enough elements.

Whether as a tool for exploring the consciousness side or for his own upgrade, this base number was too small.

Zhou Yi asked: "Old Zheng, on this basis, expand the land by three times and develop 2,400 acres specifically for planting Weird Carrots. Do we have that much arable land?"

"Yes, but..."

Zheng Tao hesitated: "Carrots should not be continuously cropped, even Weird Carrots, the same problem will exist. Generally, carrots are rotated with legumes, leafy vegetables, and gramineous crops, and carrots are planted again after an interval of 2 to 3 years, otherwise it will be very harmful to the soil. Forcing continuous cropping will lead to a substantial reduction in production and an increase in pests and diseases, which is not worth the loss."

"The current carrot field area is the result of our calculation with the programming department, and it is the optimal result. Maintaining this scale is within the acceptable range for the company's arable land."

Zhou Yi couldn't help but have a headache.

The natural law of crop growth was stuck there.

"There is another way."

Zheng Tao suggested again: "Chairman, how about opening up farmland in the lunar landing area? The surface of the lunar regolith is flat, and the Dead Sea Canal has also supplied water. As long as the mud from the bottom of the Dead Sea is turned out and transported there, it can be planted."

"The Electricity Department can't use such a large area either."

This Minister of Agriculture also had his eye on that piece of land.

Zhou Yi thought for a while: "Then go to the newly opened lunar landing area first, and give all that land to the Ministry of Agriculture for new farmland. Plant Weird Carrots this year, and I will let the Land God seal the soil."

First solve the immediate need and collect the materials needed for the elements.

Zheng Tao was overjoyed: "Are you talking about the 4 square kilometers of land?"

"Yes."

"That's great."

The little old man smiled: "I'm currently worried about not having enough land. After all, we have to leave a lot of farmland for peanuts, beans, and wheat, and none of them can be missing."

"Chairman, let me confirm again. The land in the lunar landing area, which is 6,000 acres, is all allocated to our Ministry of Agriculture to build farmland, right?"

Zhou Yi said helplessly: "Don't worry, what is allocated to you is agricultural land for the Ministry of Agriculture."

"No, no, this is 6,000 acres of arable land, Chairman, this is the first time we have obtained such a concentrated large area of land."

Old Zheng looked serious: "Then I will take my department's agricultural machinery and farmers to open up the farmland!"

"Go ahead, just say what you need."

"Okay."

Zhou Yi stopped him: "I approved the land. But let me say it first, how long will it take you to collect the 29,000 carrot strings I want?"

Zheng Tao pondered for a while: "It will take at least two months to reclaim the land, plus fertilization and sowing... without irresistible factors, it will take about half a year, and we can reach this number next spring."

Zhou Yi added: "Also, although Robo belongs to the Ministry of Land, he is also patrolling the farmland everywhere, managing those crops that may be mutated. You can take him with you more often, teach him how to use our various tools, he can skillfully use Consciousness Nerve, and he can communicate."

"Understood."

After speaking, he hurriedly organized his staff to open up new land.

...

Due to the experience of opening up floating farmland, the Ministry of Agriculture's land reclamation process was already very rich. First, they mobilized the Samurai Crabs to transport a large amount of silt and soil from the seabed, and spread them evenly on the ground in the lunar landing area to dry for several days.

After a large number of plankton overflowed and left, the land was leveled, followed by sowing and fertilization.

Under the satellite lens, agricultural machinery and farmers worked alternately in the farmland. The former worked under the scorching summer sun, and the latter concentrated on working in the less hot mornings and evenings, all working enthusiastically.

On the other side of the lunar landing area, the Leshan Giant Buddha quietly woke up.

Zhou Yi rushed to the scene immediately.

The moss and stains on the Buddha's body had all disappeared, as if it had undergone a full-body whitening, and the whole was like being made of white marble.

A halo also appeared behind the Buddha's head, appearing quite sacred.

The two guardian deities on the left and right were also completely white.

Zhou Yi was confused.

How was this completely different from the full-body blackening of the Wuhu overpass?

"Zhou Yi Great Buddha, it's like this."

The Stone Buddha explained: "The element of the overpass is lunar regolith, so it is composed of black particles. The element I chose is light amber, which is white after removing impurities."

Zhou Yi suddenly understood.

He also thought: "I remember, high-purity light amber can cause life discomfort, with radiation and interference, the intensity is much higher than lunar regolith. Can you contain this effect?"

"Zhou Yi Great Buddha, please rest assured, my light core shrinks them under the body surface, they will not naturally diffuse, and will not harm people."

Zhou Yi asked with interest: "You use light amber as an element, do you have any new abilities now?"

The Stone Buddha said: "I can now also move freely in the Dead Sea, and obtain a large amount of energy through the Dead Sea. In addition, light amber has also given me a new characteristic."

"Please attack me."

Zhou Yi pulled out the Demon Hunter from his waist and fired two shots at the Stone Buddha.

But the bullets stopped in the air in front of the Stone Buddha.

Zhou Yi continued to shoot.

He stopped after firing 15 shots in a row.

All the bullets were suspended in front of the Leshan Giant Buddha.

It raised its right arm and opened its wide palm.

The finger lifted slightly.

All the bullets suddenly flew into the air, colliding with each other and bursting out sparks, and then fell to the ground with a clatter.

"My new characteristic is that I can change the direction of energy movement nearby."

Zhou Yi was stunned.

Was this the Pro Max version of the Electric Soul ability?
