Chapter 041: Mutant Human

Food crisis!

In the second month and eight days after leaving the Kedo Space City and building the new Kedo Space City, it was also the time when Liu Fei and SMS had a virtual fighting match, and the food crisis that had always been worrying was put on the table.

In the old Kodo Space City, the food reserves are very large, even if there are no merchant ships to replenish the food for the Space City, the food in the Space City can support at least two years.

Two years only refers to the consumption time of reserve food, in fact, there is a modern three-dimensional farm in Kodo Space City, which can convert human excrement into fertilizer, and then convert it into food for human needs through the photosynthesis of green plants, and into food through this cycle.

Because it is located in the vast space, for hundreds of years, Keduo Space City has a strong sense of distress in the production and storage of food, although Keduo Space City is a space city, but in fact, the agriculture of Keduo Space City is quite developed, and the space city has a complete scientific research team, which not only involves agronomists, but also involves mechanics, material scientists, opticals and electronics, and among them, there are a large number of farmers with practical experience, Under the wisdom of these people, some scientific and technological achievements have been transformed, and the crop planting and production of Keduo Space City have been fully automated, and the food variety is very rich, although it is not completely self-sufficient, it is difficult for the outside world to sanction Kodo Space City through food.

Some experts have said that with the scientific and technological and financial resources of Keduo Space City, if it encounters an external blockade, it can establish a huge agricultural base in space in a short period of time, which is not an exaggeration, but has data as the basis, as early as more than two hundred years ago, Keduo Space City began to export a small number of high-end crop products, Keduo Space City's agricultural products can be said to be a well-known luxury brand in several major star fields, although the price is expensive, but it is very popular, This is a miracle in itself for a space steel city that relies on imported food.

When I first left the Kodo Space City, the migratory army was mainly to transport population equipment and food, like the Kodo Space City Those large agricultural equipment naturally could not be shipped, if you want to rebuild a modern space farm in a short time, it is a very huge project, undoubtedly, the current new Kodo Space City is unable to meet self-sufficiency, and the food consumed is mainly the consumption of reserve food.

In fact, the amount of food transported by the migratory army is already very large, but the population of Keduo Space City is too much, up to more than 500,000, completely relying on reserve food, this is a terrible number, if a person consumes food every day if calculated as one catty, the total amount of food consumed in a day will reach 500,000 catties, and ten days is five million catties, not including the consumption of other daily necessities, such as paper towels, edible oil, etc......

On the first day of stopping the space voyage to prepare for the reconstruction of the Kodo Space City, the migratory army sent outposts to be deployed in this airspace, sending out all kinds of signals, hoping to be able to contact the passing spaceships, but unfortunately, only after the war with the aliens, this airspace became dead, in the past few months, there was not a single spaceship passing by, and the entire airspace seemed to have become a dead desert, and it became more and more difficult to get outside assistance......

……

The food crisis was raised by a scientist, who listed a series of data.

The data shows that if the Kodo Space City rebuilds the space farm now, even if all the manpower and material resources are invested, it will take four to seven months, and it will take at least six months to obtain food from input to production, and it will not be possible to guarantee the food ration of 500,000 people at all.

The current food reserves cannot be maintained for six months, of course, this is not the most important thing, the most important thing is that even if the food can be maintained until the space farm produces enough crops for half a million people to live, this plan is just an illusion, because, the premise is to invest all the manpower and material resources, which means that the reconstruction of the Kodo Space City will be stagnant, and the construction of this farm will exhaust the resources brought out, undoubtedly, this is not a good result, after all, Tens of thousands of people out of 500,000 still stay in rudimentary mecha cockpits, and it would be a disaster to let them live in weightless space for a long time.

In addition to the problem of residence, there is also the problem of pirates worth thinking about, now there are no warships in the migratory army, if the space pirate appears, even if it is a space pirate warship, it will bring ruin to the migratory army.

Through repeated arguments, when the new Kodo Space City is rebuilt, a large number of small space fortresses will be built to guard against the emergence of space pirate ships.

In fact, small space fortresses have been being built in a hurry, and dozens of small space fortresses have been put into service, and the first line of defense has begun to be laid out in the new Kodo space city, of course, this line of defense is far from enough, so the small space fortress as a defense is still under construction.

The new Kodo Space City is proceeding according to the "blueprint plan" of Xiao Qiangguang Brain, and the only flaw is the need for food for half a million people to survive!

The food problem is very serious, and through the light brain calculation, the current food can last for two months at most, that is, in two months, if there is not enough food, the migratory army will start killing and hunting each other because of the competition for food.

No one doubts this conjecture, and this is not a conjecture, but there is a real case, as early as hundreds of years ago in the early days of interstellar exploration, there were many spaceships lost in the vast universe because of the lack of food and the tragedy of cannibalism, even now, the spacecraft traveling in space will encounter those lost space ghost ships, those ghost ships live some human beings who survive by eating the corpses of their partners, in fact, they can no longer be called human beings, they survive by killing their partners, Mutated humans have spawned, and they rely on the only circulatory system of life on the spaceship to sustain their lives......

According to the history books, three hundred years ago, human beings discovered a trek spaceship from the earth, according to the light brain record of the spaceship, the spaceship carried two hundred and seven crew members, in that hundreds of years of sailing, more than 200 crew members bred more than 700 human beings, at this time, the food crisis gradually revealed, in order to compete for food and control the life circulation system, the spaceship became a hunting ground, the law of the jungle was staged in the steel structure of the spaceship, law and morality lost their binding, people began to murder, After one hundred and fifty years of hunting, the surviving humans began to mutate, and they became terrifying monsters, they walked on the ground in the steel jungle, they were immensely powerful, and they were so patient with hunger that they could not eat anything for up to two months, and they were even able to survive in a vacuum and weightlessness for a short time.

If we look at it from an evolutionary point of view, the physical evolution of mutated humans has reached the point where humans can only dream of it, however, there is a fatal flaw in the evolved humans.

They eat people!

The spaceship that had discovered the Trek had been wiped out, and if it hadn't been for the Captain's message on his deathbed, it would have caused an even more terrifying disaster, because the Trek Ship was preparing to land on a planet inhabited by humans.

Before the ship landed, the human army had already been ready to set up a net, but even so, those mutated humans who came and went like lightning and had amazing strength still caused huge casualties to the army.

After that incident, the Human Alliance enacted a law that if an early Lost ship was discovered, direct contact was strictly forbidden without a safety decision, and if contact could not be avoided, a mech must be piloted.

……

In order to prevent Kodo Space City from becoming a terrifying mutant human, it will take a month to find enough food to satisfy the need.
