An uninhabited island nearly 100 nautical miles south of the waters of South Australia.

It's far from the main trade routes and ports, so few ships come to visit the places where the birds don't.

There is a sunken area on the island, surrounded by mountain cliffs on both sides, as long as it is not a ship that deliberately approaches the island, it will not be possible to find that there is a cave here, Nie Yun and the New Seawolf are hiding here at this time.

Nie Yun stood on a coral reef on the shore and looked at the New Seawolf lying in front of him.

That's right, Nie Yun's new car, the Seawolf, was less than 24 hours away from seeing the light of day, and before he had time to show his majestic body to the world, he ran aground with honor......

The mechanical bugs are clearing the reef that had been inserted into the Seawolf's belly and re-repairing the large hole to drain the seawater.

"Alas, therefore, you can't be too wavey to be a boat! I want to do some kind of night march, you see, it really collapsed! Nie Yun looked at the Seawolf with a look of blame on his face.

Seawolf: "......" (I want to go back and lie down for a few hundred years...... ）

Boarding the new Seawolf, the surface of the hull has been cleared of debris, most of the area has been renewed, and the deck has become light.

In one corner, there is also a pile of waste wood and various garbage collected by mechanical insects, which is their raw material warehouse.

Nie Yun nodded with satisfaction, he planned to repair and strengthen the Seawolf again, and then gradually replace it with mechanical insects to complete the transformation of mechanical insects.

After all, although there are a lot of mechanical insects at present, compared to the huge New Seawolf, it seems a little insignificant, and I am afraid that even if all the mechanical insects are filled in, even the keel cannot be completely replaced.

At the same time, this will not take up too much of the mechanical worm to build the material, which can fully liberate the work efficiency of the mechanical worm.

Mechanical bug: "......" (Evil capitalist!) ）

In addition to the mechanical insects working non-stop on the ship, with the Seawolf as the center, dense mechanical insect spiders are distributed around this reef, cleaning the reef on the bottom of the sea, and collecting all the materials available on the bottom of the sea.

Since inventing the new way of exploration of mechanical insect spiders, Nie Yun has found that raw materials are no longer the main factor limiting the number of mechanical insects, and the resources of the seabed are far beyond everyone's imagination.

Countless years of human development and ocean trade have filled the entire ocean with man-made garbage and waste, but these things are cheap raw materials for mechanical insects.

Now restricting the development of mechanical insects is the problem of energy.

After all, the mechanical bug is not a professional energy collector, and even if it absorbs solar energy, it cannot guarantee 24-hour uninterrupted operation and self-proliferation, so now, the mechanical bugs can only stop from time to time to restore energy.

Nie Yun was a little depressed, like a factory owner, obviously his factory could produce coveted profits every moment, but he couldn't let the workers work three shifts, this cruel reality made him very distressed.

Robotic bugs: "......" (We want bug rights!) ）

And this is just one of Nie Yun's worries, in addition to the energy issue, the issue of confidentiality is also on the desk.

In view of Nie Yun's extremely firm belief in large sizes (fog~), the Seawolf is bound to get bigger and bigger, and there is naturally no need to worry about it in the state of a small fishing boat before, but if it is like the size of nearly 100 meters now, it is unlikely that it will not attract attention, and besides, there are satellites everywhere in this world.

If the new Seawolf is discovered now, the headline on the front page of the news the next day must be "The ancient Spanish warship has reappeared in the world, suspected of being infested by pirates, and many countries have gone to exterminate it!" ”

The secrets on the Seawolf were too shocking, Nie Yun had to strengthen the secrecy, he didn't want to be caught and sliced.

To solve this problem, it's actually quite simple - just have a base!

As long as there is a hidden base, then the mechanical insects have a fixed production place for their daily work, and the efficiency can be greatly improved from guerrilla warfare to positional warfare.

If you need to come forward, you can let some of the mechanical bugs assemble the old Seawolf fishing boat and travel, so that many things do not have to be feared.

In a word, establishing a base area and expanding the mechanical insect population is an unstoppable development trend! It is an inevitable choice for the development of obscenity!

At this time, Nie Yun ordered the mechanical insects to clean up the surrounding reefs, in addition to wanting to clear the channel to facilitate the Seawolf's entry and exit, he also wanted to try to establish a secret base here.

"Secret base or something, it's very emotional to listen to!" Nie Yun was a little excited.

Uh, having said all that, are you sure you're not doing it for fun?!

"Goo~" At this time, Nie Yun's stomach rang again.

"Here we go again...... Alas! You work hard, and it's not easy for Lao Tzu, this is the first time today......" Nie Yun was a little helpless.

As the number of mechanical insects continues to rise, the physical strength he needs to control mechanical insects is also rising, and solar energy is already beyond his means.

Fortunately, he had just discovered a magical way to recharge, otherwise I am afraid that the food crisis would be the biggest problem Nie Yun would face!

He walked to a pile of burning fire, and there were constantly mechanical insects to collect dry firewood to add to it as fuel, and now this place has been surrounded by silver-white mechanical insects, which is one of the places for mechanical insects to replenish their energy, although the means are more primitive, but it is better than nothing.

Seeing the boss coming, the mechanical insects got out of the way, and Nie Yun didn't hesitate to reach out and directly into the burning flames.

A magical scene happened, the flames licked Nie Yun's palm, but Nie Yun seemed to be unaware, and showed a satisfied and comfortable look, and the palms in the flames had silver light flowing from time to time, transforming all the heat energy and replenishing Nie Yun's physical energy.

This is a new skill that Nie Yun stumbled upon, as for why he can use heat energy to charge himself as a human being, Nie Yun, who has never even studied biology, said that the probability that this question can be answered by a person at the level of a primary school student is infinitely close to zero......

"Now it's really more and more like a mechanical worm, people are sons like Lao Tzu, but I'm Lao Tzu like a son, the other way around! I wonder if if I drink gasoline or not? Nie Yun touched his chin and thought.

Eventually, though, he shook his head and quickly threw out the idea of completing the "standard act of self-immolation" out of his mind.
