Chapter 121 Rubber Production, Oilfield Modification

Something as complicated and cumbersome as a magic vehicle, even if he was to make it, it would take a long time.

But after looking back at the magic truck and using his mental power to inspect it for a moment, Morse suddenly understood why it took so little time to make.

Except for the power system at the front and some auxiliary magic systems, the whole car is made of magical structure, and the rest of the car is made of ordinary iron.

Compared to the magic vehicles he was familiar with, which one wasn't smelted little by little with expensive magic metal to extend the shape?

Coupled with all the protections and designs, the overall design and fabrication complexity is more than a thousand times more difficult than that of the magic truck.

Visited the operation of the Magic Automatic Factory, and if properly designed, the entire burning of the magic equipment is no different from an ordinary process.

The hardest part is the easiest to make, and it's normal for this production to be so fast.

And for Gooden, this speed is still very slow.

The core engine of the whole car, with sufficient materials, can make 20 units a day.

In addition, although the casting of the body is troublesome, it is no problem to get ten sets of trucks a day.

The main problem that can delay the construction time is the tires.

Rubber was something he had already started planting a month ago, and with the blessing of the entry, he could collect and produce more than 100 kilograms a day.

This yield is actually very terrifying, after all, it is harvested every day, and with the blessing of the entry, a rubber tree can recover the next day after cutting.

But it's still too small to provide enough tire material for trucks.

In order to ensure that the tires of the truck are not crushed when fully loaded, there are a total of six tires.

Two in the front and four in the back, so that the distribution can still drive normally in the process of full load.

And in order to ensure that you can drive normally in this world without roads, the tires are half a person high, and they are designed for off-road obstacles.

It is normal for a car to consume six tires and each tire consumes thirty or forty kilograms of rubber, after all, in addition to the external contours, the inner tires and other scattered parts, the production of more than 100 kilograms of rubber a day is simply not enough.

The speed of a magic truck for two or three days is simply dragged down by the production of rubber.

However, this rate of production is now growing rapidly, firstly, the effect of transforming the land, and secondly, the scale of rubber cultivation is also expanding, and it is only a matter of time before rubber becomes free.

For the option of using tires to drive the vehicle, Goodern also didn't think about using tracks as a drive component.

However, considering the limitations of the track, this option was finally abandoned for the time being.

The track is not a little bit of nothing, the off-road ability is strong, and the bearing capacity is also strong, which is very suitable for the world's 'road conditions'.

However, the speed is not as good as the wheeled type, and the track has to lie down if it fails, which is not easy to maintain and repair.

The wheeled type does not have these disadvantages, although the terrain adaptability is not as good as the track, but it is not unusable.

Maybe in the future, if there is a magic tank, or if a perverted weapon like the magic step chariot appears, the use of tracks will be considered again.

As the truck was full of cargo, Goodern and his party had to ride their horses to Asphalt Lake, while the truck followed slowly at the end of the group.

The group moved forward slowly and leisurely, and after walking for more than three hours, they almost arrived near the asphalt lake in the territory of Snow Valley Ridge.

Here, there is an asphalt mining camp of nearly 100 people.

When everyone arrived, they were a little frightened when they saw the lord coming in person, thinking that they had made a mistake in their work and caused the lord to come to inspect.

But knowing that the lord had come here to guide the establishment of the new mining station and bring them new supplies, the crowd breathed a sigh of relief and was overjoyed.

After all, this is the lord who came to condolence in person, and they have long known the reputation of the lord of Qingyuan who loves the people, but they have actually experienced this care and that

I've heard that it's two different things.

Seeing the meat delivered on the supply wagon, everyone in the asphalt mining station expressed joy.

While Goodern was inspecting the asphalt mining plant, the engineers who came with him were unloading the oil extraction equipment from the truck and installing it on the markings they had made.

The inspection did not last long, and after a brief understanding, Goodern went to the edge of the site of the oil gathering station.

The oil below the asphalt lake is said to be relatively deep, but that is only relative to the current means.

According to the actual depth, the oil hidden under the asphalt lake is already very shallow, only less than 100 meters under the asphalt lake.

This is the main reason why asphalt lakes are formed.

This distance is shallow, but it is a huge challenge for Goodern, who has never had any experience in this area.

A large part of the equipment for oil extraction is made up of magical equipment, and the most important extraction pipelines also occupy more than half of the equipment.

With the help of the engineering institute and auxiliary soldiers, the installation and commissioning of the equipment was completed in less than an hour, and then the most critical time was to drill holes and collect oil pipes.

In order to simplify the mining process, the entire oil production equipment is an integrated design of perforation and oil production.

In this way, there is no need for additional manpower and material resources to bring another set of door opening equipment.

But even so, half of the equipment that came this time was occupied by the extracted pipes, and this part of the equipment occupation was unavoidable.

Powered by a specially modified magic engine, a drill the size of a baby's fist kicks in, burrowing downward.

In the continuous addition of drilling pipelines, the hollowing bit is also deepening, and when the twelfth pipeline is added, the drill bit pipeline responsible for drilling suddenly sinks under the influence of gravity, and is locked by the device to get stuck.

This is a manifestation of the fact that it has been opened, and in the absence of advanced measuring equipment, it can only be known in this primitive way.

Of course, there is another way, and that is to use the mage's spiritual power to attach and probe.

Due to the fact that there are various substances underground that block the diffusion of spiritual power, Gooden's current strength is the limit of spreading to the ground for a maximum of twenty meters or so.

But if you can rely on a hole to transmit downward, the distance can be much deeper.

When he was confirming the oil before, he was so sure, he sensed down the pipeline, and found that the drill bit had broken through the rock formation and drilled into the oil, and opened his eyes and nodded to everyone to indicate success.

Seeing Goodern nodding, everyone quickly operated the machine and took out the twelve pipes again, and in a special tank at the end of the drill bit, there was a viscous and dark brown liquid, which was exactly the oil he needed!

Replacing the special collection port, everyone was busy for a while, and the connecting pipe continued to be put back into the hole and went deep into the oil.

On the side, Goodern was not idle at the moment, and was using the panel to check the reserves and entries of the oil field.

【Name:Small shallow underground oil field】

[Entry: Evaporative gasification, address stability]

[Introduction: A small shallow oil field hidden under an asphalt lake, with reserves of more than 10,000 tons]

[Evaporative gasification: due to geological cracks, a large amount of oil gushes out along the cracks, and after extrusion contact, it turns into natural asphalt]

[Stable address: The structure of the reservoir oil layer is stable, and it is difficult to have risks]

The last time he visited, Goodern had already seen the panels in the oil field.

This kind of reserve is simply an unexpected surprise for him, although it is only a small amount of more than 10,000 tons, it is no problem to use it for Qingyuan Town for more than a hundred years.

But unfortunately, I didn't make a suitable entry change last time.

This time, I also refreshed the entry reserve to see if there was anything that could be replaced.

[Flammable and explosive: the side effect of evaporative vaporization, resulting in the bottom void being filled with flammable and explosive gas]

[Pressurized treatment: increase the internal pressure of the oilfield and let it be lifted

The speed of extraction can be accelerated, and as the oil field reserves decrease, the pressure will also automatically decrease.

[Fault diffusion: the spread of faults within the oil field, resulting in structural fragmentation, resulting in unknown results, which may expand the scale of the oil field and may exacerbate the difficulty of oil exploitation]

Of the three new entries, the first was directly ignored by Goodern.

And his eyes are on the second and third articles, but he is still very interested in the third one in general.

He has only seen this kind of dog gambling entry for the second time.

The last time I saw a similar probable entry was when I changed the phrase "Calm and Relaxed" on the Mithril Staff.

It seems that this kind of entry with a certain nature of betting on dogs belongs to the rare category that is difficult to appear.

However, as a good young man who firmly refused to gamble and drugs, Gooden directly chose to modify the "evaporative gasification" to "pressurized treatment" to improve the collection speed of the oil field.

The familiar feeling of vertigo returned, but not as severe as before.

As for the side effects of this modification, Gooden also found a little bit that as long as it involves a large-scale modification, it will produce a mental power for him.

At the same time, for higher-level character modifications, it seems that there will also be such side effects, so that there is a limit to his modifications.

After modifying one item, Goodern did not stop and continued to select Refresh.

But it's a pity that today's luck is still not so good, and there is no suitable option for the remaining two refreshes of the six entries, so I have no choice but to modify it here for the time being.

The engineers who installed the equipment re-spread the collection port into the oil and assembled it in less than half an hour, with the previously opened hole.

The special valve port on the oil extractor is then connected to the underground storage tank that has been built on the side.

When the last valve closes and locks, the integrated oil extractor also changes from drilling mode to oil production mode, and the huge robotic arm is driven by a magic engine and begins to pump oil from the underground with a swing.

It didn't take long for Goodern to sense that a large amount of oil was being pumped into the underground storage tank.

Successfully extracting the oil, Goodern immediately had the iron barrel he had brought and poured oil into the barrel from the branch.

Watching the dark and viscous oil pouring in, it was a little strange for Morse to watch from the sidelines.

"Isn't this the black fire water from the burning land over there in the Wasteland? Master Gooden, what's the use of you gathering this thing?"

In the face of Morse's question, Goodern was surprised that the other party had seen this thing, but then he was relieved when he thought about it, as a native legend, the other party must have much more knowledge than him.

"Of course it's a fire." Goodern explained in detail the usefulness of oil, but it was indeed used to light fires.

"Fire?" For this statement, Morse was obviously stunned for a moment, and then hurriedly spoke.

"Young Master Gooden, don't you know that black water and fire are poisonous? The smoke from the combustion of this thing is poisonous, and long-term users can easily get sick and die."

Goodern nodded, indicating that he knew.

"Yes, but this problem is not a problem for me, I have a way to fix this toxicity."

Seeing Goodern's confident appearance, Morse stopped explaining, and stood quietly on the sidelines thinking about the connection between 'oil' and the oil extractor.

The bucket he brought with him was all he wanted, and when it was full, Goodern called it a day and went home.

When they came, they rode slowly, and when they returned, they got into the empty trucks, and the rest of the horses were handed over to the small group to bring back.

Within half an hour, everyone arrived at Qingyuan Town.

For the performance of the magic truck, Morse was once again an eye-opener.

Originally, he thought that this thing would not be fast, but he didn't expect it to be moving slowly to follow the team.

After experiencing the performance of the magic truck, the mysterious power in the man's body is also unlocked.

Even if he was a magician, he couldn't resist the temptation of this steel beast, and after returning to Qingyuan Town, he couldn't wait to come to the driver's seat and follow the guidance of the driver on the side.

On the way back, Moss made a request to drive, but with a car of people in the car, Goodern temporarily refused for fear that Moss would replicate Herissa's behavior.

However, after agreeing to return to Qingyuan Town, he let him drive and pull goods while experiencing.

After all, there is only this car in the whole town now, and a lot of transportation depends on this thing.

In this regard, Morse did not object, anyway, as long as he could drive, helping or something should be taken as a passing.

Looking at Moss, who excitedly stepped on the gas pedal and left, Goodern outside the castle couldn't help but fall into deep thought.

A legendary boss who worked as a truck driver for him in Qingyuan Town, this kind of thing feels magical when you think about it.

The point is that the other party is still so willing......

Shaking his head, he ordered his men to send the oil to the distillery, while he returned to the castle to attend to other matters.

……

When it was time for dinner, Moss, who had been driving for almost half an afternoon, returned to the castle without getting enough of it.

Seeing the other party's expression, Gooden also knew that this was his addiction to driving.

At the same time, at the dinner party, Moss also turned the conversation to the magic truck, and discussed driving tips and improvement ideas with Herissa.

I have to say that one of the two is extraordinary and the other is legendary, and the improvement ideas given have also benefited Gooden a lot, and he secretly wrote down these ideas to be used together when the time comes to develop the second-generation vehicle.

After everyone had eaten and drunk enough at the dinner, they were aroused and asked Goodern to borrow a truck, intending to go and actually have a good time.

Gooden didn't refuse, agreeing to use it, and Anna, who was confused at the dinner party, finally understood why the other two were so obsessed and fanatical.

That night, on the road built along the city wall in Qingyuan Town, three people sat on top of a truck and were racing in circles.

After half a night's work, the three of them were stunned to stop the magic engine until it was scrapped.
