This sea area is an archipelago that stretches nearly 10,000 kilometers from east to west, and the total number of islands is nearly 5,000, including four relatively large islands, all covering an area of hundreds of thousands of square kilometers.

The expedition team named it the Xinlu Islands, and several of the large islands were also named East Island, West Island, South Island and North Island, which was really not creative.

The Ocean sailed along the southern side of the archipelago for fifteen days, during which the expedition team would go to some of the less dangerous islands to explore and collect specimens, while the larger islands were explored by Ling Li.

On some relatively large islands, there are demon beasts above the ninth order, especially on the four largest islands, and there are even powerful demon beasts in the Ascension Realm.

The "Ocean" also did not dare to easily break into the territory of these powerful demon kings.

After sailing away from Xida Island, there is an endless sea in the west, so Lu Jiayi decided to end her current expedition and start sailing back.

……

It was getting dark, and after dinner, Ling Li returned to the cabin where he lived, and after locking the hatch, he immediately entered the trial space.

In the trial space, the lighting relies on an artificial sun, and after sensing Ling Li's entry into it, Gui Bo turned on the artificial sun as soon as possible, and the space was as bright as day in an instant.

Inside the trial space, more than ninety percent of it is now seawater, and at a glance, there is a vast ocean.

At the peak of the central island, Gui Bo was already standing outside the gate of Xuanchen Immortal Mansion, respectfully waiting for Ling Li's arrival.

At this time, three relatively large landmasses had formed in the trial space, one of which was the central island that was originally formed, the other was the island formed by volcanic lava and a piece of land that had recently been piled up by the gravel using the silt from the seabed.

"What does the young master command?" Uncle Gui asked.

"Call the craftsmen and a few of them." Ling Li said, and then walked directly towards the mecha manufacturing workshop.

Turn on the lights, and the whole workshop suddenly brightens.

More than 150 sets of automatic processing equipment led by craftsmen are installed in the workshop, but they are very neat, not only the workbench, but also the floor are wiped clean as new.

Due to the limited materials used to make advanced machinery and mechs, work is not often underway.

Only a moment later, the noble uncle came with his apprentice and six men.

Ling Li wanted to develop a large area of land that had just been accumulated with seabed silt and ore veins, which required the construction of a concentrator and farms, pastures, etc., and more automatic production machinery and management personnel.

The number of cultists who are currently undergoing "re-education through labor" is limited, and he can only find a way to find a way from the aspect of that kind of "spiritual puppet."

Ling Li greeted them, and then led them to a laboratory table.

"Can you make a replica of this kind of puppet?" He took out several completed spirit puppets taken out from the second floor of the glazed pagoda and placed them on the experimental table.

The "eyes" of the noble uncle and the craftsman are extremely advanced detection equipment, and they can see the structure of this spirit puppet at a glance.

"These are battle puppets, and the young master can use them to form a convoy." Uncle Gui said.

"No, I mean...... Used in production. Ling Li said.

"In this case, there is no need for such a high level, and some aspects need to be improved." "If it's just for production, you don't need such high-grade materials." ”

"Can't the production of spirit puppets be used in battle?" Ling Li asked.

"Of course you can, but it takes a period of training, but it's always not as effective as a dedicated combat puppet." Uncle replied, "It is better for a puppet to be crafted and trained into a specialized talent. ”

"How is the training of the spirit puppet completed?"

"Practice, a lot of practice, and of course, the experience of the past can also be read directly." Gui Bo replied, "Generally speaking, the spirit puppet that has input experience is not as perfect as the spirit puppet that has been trained and evolved by itself, and there will always be some misunderstandings in human experience. ”

"Oh, that's pretty much the same way AI is trained."

"The main control system of the spirit puppet is an intelligent optical brain." "Even we are the same. ”

"Are they capable of self-awareness?" Ling Li asked.

Uncle Gui's face changed for a moment, "It's hard, maybe it's the result of someone intervening." This aspect of the matter will be known when the young master reaches the top floor of the glazed tower in the future. ”

Seeing Gui Bo's expression, Ling Li somehow suddenly thought of a science fiction movie that sent artificial intelligence to prepare to rule the world, which may be a potential danger.

But one must not choke on food.

"Is there any difficulty in manufacturing the optical brain chip?"

"There is no difficulty, the carbon-based materials extracted from those demon beetle shells can be made." Uncle Gui said, "After the young master opened the restriction of the second-floor glazed tower, we were already able to connect with the main light brain on the second floor and study. ”

"Well, I need to build more farms and ranches." Ling Li commanded.

"In that case, it will be hard for the young master to carry a large amount of soil in, and agriculture and animal husbandry are inseparable from the land." Gui Bo said, "The development of this trial space can only be completed by the young master, and what the old slave can do is only to transform. ”

"Okay, I'll try to do it." Ling Li also looked helpless.

It is relatively easy to pump seawater into the trial space, but this kind of land reclamation work consumes a lot of true yuan, and it is also very tiring.

In addition, according to Guibo's report and the confessions of several cultists, there seems to be a cultivator controlled by alien demons in a certain cult stronghold in Qinzhou.

This reminded Ling Li that he still couldn't find any clue about the investigation of Wei's death, and couldn't help but frown.

In fact, the existence of alien demons is the most dangerous thing.

……

On the way back, the "Ocean" was quite smooth, although it also encountered several attacks by sea beasts, but it was not too powerful creatures. Thanks to the efforts of the guards, several battles were saved and survived.

Three days later, the "Ocean" sailed into Fengling Harbor, and everyone's tense nerves were finally completely relaxed.

This exploration lasted nearly a month, and the biggest takeaway was the discovery of the New Land Islands.

After receiving reports that there were a large number of super creatures on the Red Xuan Star, the Qin Mansion higher-ups decided to temporarily abandon their exploration activities on the Red Xuan Star. After all, such a powerful beast needs to go out to several strong people above Nirvana to ensure safety.

Such a strong man can't be invited to do the expedition for the time being.

After resting on Dengxian Island for a few days, Ling Li left the Red Xuan Star and set off to return to the Nine Xuan Secret Realm.

As soon as he returned to Jiuxuan City, he heard the news that a large number of strange beasts and demon insects had begun to land from the Nantian Peninsula......
