Chapter 682: Raising Pigs (Adding Changes for the Alliance Leader to "Stabilize the Heartbeat") 5/11
The ship that fell had been asleep at the bottom of the lake for an unknown amount of time, and a stony layer resembling coral had formed on its surface.
Regarding this spaceship that is likely to change the background of his power, Sun Cheng is very cautious.
Two pillars of light shot out of his eyes, and after analyzing the stony layer to make sure that destroying it would not have much impact on the ship below, he carefully reached out and smashed down on it at a constant speed.
"Bang bang bang!"
The dull banging sound sounded at the bottom of the lake for a while before it ended, and a large piece of stone wrapped around the surface of the spaceship was quickly stripped off by Sun Cheng and thrown far away.
The fingers of the left and right hands wriggled at the same time, turning into transparent liquid metal tentacles, sticking out and sticking to the outer layer of the ship.
Sun Cheng's eyes kept flashing with lines of azure data, and he was ready to use the special abilities of the Cybertrons to forcibly check the current status of this spaceship.
Xu was as invincible as usual because the ship's central master's brain was damaged or had not yet been awakened, and his invasion was met with no resistance.
The whole process lasted for thirty or forty minutes, and the sprint on the side of him was on guard only to see Sun Cheng slowly spit out a long string of bubbles.
"Is the damage so bad......"
Ten fingers squirmed and quickly returned to their original state, Sun Cheng frowned and looked at the spaceship in front of him, but he was a little relieved in his heart.
"No wonder the Pathfinder gave it up!"
The ship is largely hopeless, and it seems that it has been attacked by space pirates at one time, or it may have been unlucky enough to hit a meteorite.
In short, there was a huge gap with a radius of more than 20 meters on one side of the ship's hull, and the spacecraft had been soaked in the bottom of the lake for an unknown number of years, and the water and silt poured into the lake had made it almost completely scrapped, and it was no longer worth repairing.
Sun Cheng finally understood why the Pathfinder would abandon this precious spaceship.
However, although the ship is no longer worth repairing, it is still a great treasure.
Neither he nor Base 2 had the experience or technology to build a large spaceship, and the damaged spaceship could still extract some structural and material data, which could save them a lot of time and make them take a lot of detours.
In addition, due to the ship's special design, not all equipment inside the ship was completely destroyed.
According to Sun Cheng's detection just now, in the core area above the spacecraft, there are still some equipment that can still be used after a little repair because of the sealing.
Among them, the most exciting thing for him is the central master brain of this spaceship.
The universe is a place that is more unpredictable and dangerous than the sea, and countless such elders who travel in the universe, even if they are as strong as pathfinders, have disappeared silently into the boundless universe without even leaving their own names.
The universe is too big, and it is full of dangers and changes.
Therefore, if you want to travel across the stars, you need not only a spacecraft such as a spaceship, but also a responsive star map to avoid dangerous objects such as asteroid belts, neutron stars, black holes, and wormholes.
The central master controls the brain, just listen to the name, it is the control core of a spaceship.
The Cybertron civilization is extremely good at creating this kind of extremely high intelligence, in the memory of Tianhuo, the central master brain on the Cybertron spaceship, the intelligence is even much stronger than that of most scientists, they completely control a large spaceship to sail automatically, and avoid most of the risks in the voyage.
The central master brain of each spaceship will definitely store the most accurate data of the spacecraft.
This is also the reason why Sun Cheng doesn't feel that it is a big deal, if a spaceship is broken, it will be broken, as long as the central master control brain is fine, it will be enough to build another one.
Thinking of this, he immediately ordered, "Sprint, let the sappers remove the robot...... The damage to this ship is so severe that there is no need for emergency repairs......"
Sprint was stunned for a moment, hesitated for a moment before asking: "Master, then we haven't been busy for nothing this time......
"How can you work in vain, just the gold caught in this lake, which the ancient Mayans called the sacred lake, is not a loss. What's more, although the spaceship is not worth salvage, there are still some good things in the spaceship, and I will go over to pick it up in person! ”
Perhaps because of the Decepticon Pathfinder's presence here, Lake Titicaca was called the Sacred Lake by the ancient Mayans who lived nearby.
Ancient South America was rich in minerals, especially copper, gold and silver.
When Base 2 excavated the underground mausoleum built by the ancient Mayans for the Decepticon pathfinder, the weight of the various gold burial goods obtained alone exceeded eight tons.
This sacred lake has been sacrificed by generations of ancient Mayans, and there are countless gold products thrown into the lake.
On the way to the ground, Sun Cheng had already asked for first-hand information from the central brain of the No. 2 base, Phantom, and in the past few months, the various gold products that the dredging robot had cleaned from the silt at the bottom of the lake alone weighed more than twelve tons.
Gold is considered by the Cybertrons to be an ordinary metal, and they may use it in the manufacture of airframes, weapons, and some machinery, but it is not in great demand.
Although Sun Cheng also brought several batches of gold back to the real world from the [Transformers Universe], it can only be regarded as a drop in the bucket compared to the gold mined in Base 2 and obtained from South America.
There was not much gold hoarded in the base, and most of it was sold to Moscow and the Northern Capital as a precious metal for trading.
A small number of the humanoid Decepticons controlled by the base are used as capital weapons, subsidizing the financial loopholes of several countries controlled by them.
The economies of South American countries are generally not good, and there are many lazy people and lawyers and elites raised by international capital.
Although Base 2 is hidden behind the scenes, the Kingdom of Glass, the Kingdom of Secrets, the Kingdom of Barra, and part of Brazil have all fallen under the control of Base 2.
In order to maintain stability, Sun Cheng has been implementing a 'pig raising policy'.
That is, to purchase a large amount of minerals from the country, and at the same time dump the daily necessities purchased from the Far East and Russia at low prices, and regularly provide financial and profit subsidies to the government and politicians under its control, so as to maintain the relative stability and high welfare of all walks of life in the country.
This method is very negative, but it is also very effective.
Smart people are everywhere, and the intelligence network covering South America at Base 2 is getting better and better.
They have long discovered that in the countries controlled by Base 2, there are politicians and forces investigating or have been aware of the existence of Base 2.
But why are the countries that have been controlled so far still too peaceful, to put it bluntly, everyone has gotten the benefits they want from Base 2.
Therefore, there is an extra control force behind the scenes of the country, and each other is pretending to be confused.
In the future, as the poisonous blood delivered by Base No. 2 continues to corrode, even if the ghost of Base No. 2, which is active behind the scenes in South American countries, is poked out, it will be difficult to shake Sun Cheng's control over South America.
Because of the controlled South American countries, the economy that is gradually booming, and the high welfare that the government has begun to implement, are all based on the blood transfusion of Base 2.
Once he stops the purchase of minerals, the dumping of low-cost daily necessities, and the financial subsidies of these South American countries, the good days of everyone from the state to the politicians to the common people will be wiped out.
This is Sun Cheng's 'pig policy'!
