On the way to the Internet café, Lu Yiming saw some aunts and uncles queuing up in front of the community warehouse to receive consumption vouchers.

Everyone is enthusiastic about this brand new holiday.

"Captain Lu, you're here to buy something too?"

"Oh haha, I was just passing by...... Hello! Lu Yiming hurriedly said hello to them.

With these vouchers, you can buy beef, chicken, pork, and some foods such as canned luncheon meat, ham sausages, and spicy sauce that were previously stocked at a fairly low price.

Although it has been frozen in the freezer for a whole year, the taste of the food is not bad, and the meat under frozen conditions can be eaten even if it is stored for decades.

In order to ensure clean air in the shelters, most homes do not have kitchens, so people can only cook in the community kitchens on the deck.

Versatile housewives, who give full play to their wisdom in life, pickle these meats, or marinate them in brine, or use pickles, umeboshi, etc., so that these meats can be preserved for a longer time.

Even Lu Yiming's old mother happily copied a large pot of pork with dried plum vegetables, and theoretically there was no problem for a family of three to eat for half a month.

But Lu Yiming, who is still growing his body, finished eating in three or five days. He felt like a pig, the kind he couldn't feed......

The only fly in the ointment is that the meat currently distributed is not sustainable because it has been stockpiled before, not the extra capacity. If the production capacity of the Yunhai cannot be increased, no matter how much meat is stored, it will run out one day......

This is another very headache, the Yunhai government has really tried its best, tried all the means, and can only do it now.

It is too difficult to continue to increase the production of meat, and more land is needed, such as synthetic meat culture, mealworm breeding, animal farms, etc., the production capacity has been maximized, and it is not fast to get up. There are even professional people who raise and catch fish around the Yunhai, but they still can't meet everyone's meat needs......

In the past, a super-large pig farm, covering several square kilometers, was able to raise millions of pigs. Millions of heads, dozens of times more than the total population of the entire Yunhai!

But now, if you don't have enough land, you don't have this ability, and it's impossible to use all the places on the Yunhai to raise pigs, right? Even that cruise ship has been transformed into a farm, but the output is still not enough, the volume of the Yunhai is limited, no matter how you think of it, the lack of volume is the key...... You can't keep your pigs in water.

"Alas, it would be nice to be able to fish on a large scale, a large whale weighing dozens of tons, can effectively alleviate the problem of insufficient protein production capacity. However, it is not safe to go out fishing. ”

At this moment, Ding Yuan is sitting on the top floor of the Central Building, looking at the beautiful scenery in a beautiful way.

In the boundless sea, the scenery is almost static.

The Sea of Clouds is the only piece of land in the ocean and an important habitat for seabirds. The birds were very alert, and they never went near the white mist.

Normally, people don't kill these poor birds, they just let them roost, and even find a way to domesticate some seabirds for fishing.

It's been almost a year since the sun hung in the west, and it's finally moved to the horizon, and I don't know when it will set......

"The night is the real test."

In order to cope with the problem that plants cannot grow after the sun goes down, scientists have prepared some artificial light sources and equipped with special thermal power stations. With the wood cut down in the White Mist Continent, it is enough to generate electricity.

Even when there is no sunlight, these artificial lights can feed the plants to grow.

"If only there were a bigger ship...... Ding Yuan took a sip of coffee and quickly shook his head, feeling like he was wishful thinking......

The Yunhai is already very large, and with the scientific and technological strength of human beings, it is really difficult to build a larger ship.

Looking down on the entire shelter from the top floor of the central building, the lush vegetation and the crowds of people coming and going give you a great sense of accomplishment, as if all the hard work had been worth it.

Ding Yuan recalled the prophet "Zero" at the headquarters, and also recalled his colleagues in other shelters, and inexplicably felt a little nostalgic.

He didn't know how these compatriots were surviving, whether they were alive or not, and whether they would have a chance to meet again in the future.

Thinking of this, he sighed softly again......

……

Happy times are always short-lived, and the five-day holiday passes quickly.

After relaxing, all the work is on track again, going to work, the study of the study, the transport ship continues to move into the distance, extracting the white mist, extracting a new round of X-elements.

There was even a small group of experts who suggested that they could go deep into that continent once again and capture some specimens of monsters for experimental research. After absorbing a large amount of white mist, many mutant species are produced, which also leads to new scientific research projects.

For example, the acid spewed by the eyeball monster is very useful, and it is widely used in industrial production to alleviate it, and can replace hydrochloric acid and nitric acid in many scenarios.

Since biotechnology has taken a big step forward, organ cloning has become a real possibility, and biologists are trying to clone the glands of the eyeball monster to make the acid in bulk.

For example, the heart core of the scorpion monster is a very efficient energy substance!

The heart core of the monster can be used to make batteries, and stable discharge for a hundred years will not be a problem. This is comparable to the most advanced radioisotope battery in human beings, and even more advanced, because its volume can be made very small, stable and efficient, and easy to preserve. Comparatively speaking, radioisotope batteries are relatively large in size, and the safety angle is not as good as that of core batteries.

If you can get tens of thousands of core batteries and connect them in series, it is equivalent to twice the usable energy of Yunhai!

But before these bold plans could be implemented, several superpowered scouts who came back from going out reported a terrifying news, which made the top management of the Sea of Clouds have to make a choice as soon as possible-

Get out of this continent!

"Everyone! This is not alarmism! ”

"I think it's time for us to get out of this continent."

"According to the report of the outgoing scout, a creature the size of a mountain peak has appeared near the shoreline! Since the surrounding white fog is almost pumped by us, the visibility of the air is greatly improved, and it has a high probability of spotting us. ”

Ding Yuan swallowed his saliva, his face was a little serious: "The height of this super life is at least three hundred meters, and its mass may be tens of thousands of tons, or even hundreds of thousands of tons!" According to the White Mist Civilization, this super life form is called 'Void'! ”

"It has a long tentacle on its head, its attack range can reach 10 kilometers around it, and its perception is very keen, if it gets closer, it will directly detect our transport ship."

"So the transports that extract the X-element have temporarily ceased their activities."

"According to the assessment of the security team, only a high-yield nuclear bomb, or even a hydrogen bomb, can kill it quickly...... However, we do not have a hydrogen bomb in the sea of clouds. ”

"Mr. Ding, although there is no hydrogen bomb, one can be made temporarily." The speaker was a well-known nuclear expert: "The hydrogen bomb was ignited with an atomic bomb, and we have scientific and technical information on this. There are many skilled craftsmen in the Vault, and within a month or two, it is no problem to create a deuterium bomb from the element deuterium. ”

The vast majority of hydrogen bombs are made of tritium, but some of Xia's hydrogen bombs can be replaced by deuterium, tritium is extremely expensive, only nuclear power plants have a little production, and the source of deuterium is very extensive, it can be extracted in large quantities from water, and it is relatively stable.

The vault happens to contain classified information on the manufacture of the hydrogen bomb.

Coupled with the development of the past year, and some garbage has been picked up from the White Mist Continent, the industrial capacity inside the Yunhai has been greatly improved, making it possible to manufacture hydrogen bombs......

But in any case, the detonation of a hydrogen bomb requires an atomic bomb to ignite, and eventually an atomic bomb must be used.

The atomic bomb is one less than one, and requires a lot of uranium and a large centrifuge. It is impossible for the Yunhai to have these things, and there is no uranium ore to be found.

"Okay...... But I don't think there's much point in killing this super life with a hydrogen bomb...... Why bother? ”

Lu Yiming frowned and looked at the investigation information in hand.

The reconnaissance military drone uses a high-definition motorized zoom lens, which uses optical compensation and mechanical compensation to ensure that all available light is accurately focused on the imaging surface. In this way, this kind of lens can penetrate the hazy white fog to a certain extent.

Shooting at an altitude of 5,000 meters, you can see a huge mountain-like life form foraging for food on this continent, "boom boom", and every step it takes will cause a huge vibration on the ground.

Suddenly, a black shadow flashed, and only a soft "pop" sound was heard, and the high-altitude reconnaissance drone was shot down, as if it was pinched to death by a mosquito.

Lu Yiming took a deep breath, "This thing...... It's kind of amazing. ”

"The legendary Godzilla, nothing more than that, right?"

He actually felt a little sorry for the military drone.

In addition to Li Yao, the current investigation team has also added 6 new members, all of whom have been strengthened, and their eyesight and hearing far exceed that of ordinary people.

In this case, the scout team is much more staffed than before. The information given by the reconnaissance team is very detailed, and they generally believe that a powerful lifeform like Godzilla has a chance to find the Sea of Clouds.
