After sorting out the development ideas, Chu Jungui began to implement them. He first retrofitted the two existing Arks with a new generation of power furnaces, one with four side-by-side harvesters and a large organic matter separator, and the other with a large retractable digging bit on the left and right sides of the front, as well as a full eight large refining furnaces.

The main structure of the ark was all ready-made, so the renovation work took less than a day in total. Two massive arks with dozens of chariots left Base 2 and headed for the mountains where the beast tide appeared.

The Ark's maneuverability was very strong, and it took only 2 hours to cover a complex section of hundreds of kilometers, and this was to take care of the protected combat vehicles. As soon as they entered the edge of the mountain, the two arks became one in front of the other.

Ahead was the ark with a harvester, and along the way, whether it was a double-leaved tree, an unknown shrub, or a purple-leaved grass, all of them were uprooted, crushed, and sent into a large organic matter separator in the cabin. In order not to waste resources, it even set the area of harvesting to 50 centimeters underground, that is, even the mud was dug up.

Useless materials such as dirt were automatically separated and then sprayed out from the back of the ark.

The Ark in the back followed the path carved out by the Ark in front, and three drill bits began to dig at the same time. The huge drill bit directly crushes all the dirt and rocks, feeds them into the refining furnace at the back, and starts refining on the spot.

The terrain was originally gradually upward, but the ark behind forced a slow upward ramp, and all the earthwork excavated was sharpened on the spot.

In this way, the two arks slowly moved forward and forcibly carved a relatively flat road 30 meters wide in the mountains. The speed of the ark was not fast, it could only advance a few kilometers per hour, about the same speed as a human walk. This is to take care of the processing capacity of the organic matter separator and refining furnace, and if there is no fear of wasting materials, the forward speed can be increased several times.

But at such a speed, it is also quite terrifying with the accumulation of time, because the two arks do not need to stop at all.

After about 2 hours of advance, a team of heavy-duty trucks arrived from the base to transport back the organic raw materials, base metals, and inorganic raw materials processed by the two arks.

Organic raw materials will be turned into bioexplosives, fuel for power furnaces, and raw materials for the manufacture of composite materials. Needless to say, the use of base metals, inorganic raw materials are mostly used to produce various building materials and the basic structure of starships and ground machinery, as well as a small number of residues, there are also some rare elements in them, waiting for technological breakthroughs before further refining.

After the convoy returned, it brought back images of the two Arks advancing in the mountains, as well as various data. At this time, Chu Jungui was making the final design and modifications to the new Type 2 Ark.

The size of the Type II Ark is much larger, and it was originally used for transportation between the two bases, but Chu Jungui modified the design several times, and the size became larger and larger, and finally it had become a behemoth with a width of 70 meters and a length of 300 meters.

Chu Jungui found that the larger the platform, the stronger the comprehensive performance. After the final size was finalized, Chu Jungui simply put a full 10 power furnaces on the Type 2 Ark in one go. With a terrifying power of 5 million kilowatts, even a pig can go to the sky. Not to mention going to the sky, interstellar travel is not a problem.

The basic version of the Type II Ark was originally intended to transport supplies and personnel, but could also act as a mobile artillery battery. After receiving the data of the two arks that had already driven into the mountains, Chu Jungui quickly completed the new design.

The new design is to add both a harvester and a tunneling bit to the Type 2 Ark, followed by an organic matter separator and a refining furnace. In this way, the Type 2 Ark integrates logging and digging grass, quarrying and excavating, filling pits and building roads, which is the best choice for mountain advancement.

As soon as the design drawing was completed, Chu Jungui directly started to build the second-type ark of the resource collection model. The communication between the two bases is not so urgent for the time being, so let's build a big guy who can open a road in the mountainous area first.

Chu Jungui's plan was to forcibly open a path in the mountains that would allow the heavily armed troops to march out and push it straight to the lair of the war beasts. This kind of ploughing will basically completely anger the native creatures of the planet, thus luring the beast tide out.

The last S-class beast tide had just been wiped out, and Chu Jungui believed that the war beasts would not recover so easily. The combination of the ark and the chariot is not a problem to deal with the B-rank beast tide, even if it is A-class, it can be withdrawn.

As soon as the production tasks were assigned, there was a projection of completion time. The initial time given is 30 hours, and then slowly shortened.

Some important components of the new ark are already being produced in advance, such as power tires and suspension, gravitational engines, etc. This saves a lot of time for subsequent construction.

After doing this, before I knew it, 2 hours had passed, and a new convoy of transports had returned from the mountains. Hundreds of heavy-duty trucks brought back nearly 10,000 tons of various raw materials, and then turned back immediately without rest.

The speed at which the Ark produces raw materials is so fast that if it takes two hours, this transport fleet will not be able to transport it at all.

Seeing the harvested raw materials, Chu Jungui silently added a manufacturing plan for a Type 2 Ark. The subject only wanted to speed up the advance in the mountains, not for more material at all.

In the mountains, wild beasts and insects of all sizes in the forest are running away in panic. There was a constant roar in the distance, and the earth was shaking, and tall double-leaved trees could be seen falling down, kicking up patches of dust.

In the tops of an ancient tree, a messenger looked at the ark in the distance, where only a little of the top was exposed, hovered for a moment, and then flapped its wings and flew away.

Deep in the mountains, a small valley surrounded by mountains was filled with black mist.

The valley is not large, only 100 meters square, and the valley floor is completely covered with ink mist. There are countless caves on the surrounding hillsides, some large and some small, densely packed.

The messenger flew above the valley and projected a vision of the ark advancing through the mountains.

Dozens of eyes floated in the depths of the black mist, projecting a topographic map as they watched the information brought back by the messenger. There is a No. 2 base on the topographic map, which also includes the edge of the mountainous area.

The black fog absorbed the information, and a short but straight line appeared on the topographic map, apparently the path of the ark.

A cloud of black mist poured out of a cave on the hillside, and many eyes looked a little anxious, and said, "Great Brother Dao, those damn humanoid reptiles are clearly targeting us! Those damn low-level multicellular creatures, they ......"

The black mist that filled the entire valley surged for a moment, and hundreds of eyes surfaced, and said impatiently: "Okay, it's enough to scold them once a day, you have to spend your time on the right path, and saying a few more adjectives won't increase your cell count." Leave them alone for now, it will take at least a few months for them to get here. With this time, we can gather a larger army of minions and deliver them a fatal blow. ”

The Little Mist reluctantly retreated into the cave.

Countless eyes sank into the black mist again, and the black mist gradually stopped fluctuating.

During this time, the convoy returned to the base with a full load of supplies. Looking at the heavy-duty trucks one after another, Chu Jungui felt that with such a huge supply of materials, it seemed that he could do something big.
