Chapter 79 A Brand New Base
Yin Shan stopped caring about the couple's day trip to the space and decided to go check on the base. He hadn't been there for a month and didn't know what had changed.
She first came to Li Guangnian's laboratory. Li Guangnian was very happy to see her back and said, "Girl, we have made progress in our research on mutant beasts!
The evolution of mutant beasts can be divided into several directions. One is like domestic animals, where the meat quality will have a qualitative leap, but other aspects such as IQ will remain at the previous state. This kind of evolution is generally domesticated, but wild boars or pheasants will become more aggressive after mutation, and similarly, the meat will not taste good.
The other type is like Hanhan and others. Some of them have some superpowers similar to humans. Their evolution is mainly based on the improvement of strength, speed, size, intelligence and so on.
Another way is simply to improve intelligence, like Huihui, who can understand both human and animal language. Combined with Yunhua's plant-based mutant ability, I think you could experiment with establishing telepathy with Huihui. Because Huihui can communicate with other animals, it would be much easier for you to tame other mutants.
The most dangerous type is the bloodthirsty evolution. Their abilities are improved in all aspects. Such mutant beasts cannot be tamed. They feed on humans or other mutant beasts. Once entangled, they will fight to the death.
Most of the mutant beasts that produced crystal cores evolved from bloodthirsty creatures, making them very unlikely to be tamed.
But you haven't been here for the past month, so you might not know that more and more mutant beasts are evolving towards bloodthirstiness... In other words, the living environment for humans will become increasingly worse!"
Listening to Li Guangnian's words, Yin Shan suddenly felt like Alexander. Mutants evolve faster and more easily than humans. Once these mutants believe that humans cannot pose a threat to them, they will definitely launch a large-scale attack on human settlements. At that time, humans will not only face natural disasters, but also beast tidal waves...
Yin Shan sighed and suggested that Li Guangnian take some time to study mutant abilities. He then left the research institute and went to the hydroponic vegetable garden.
Zhou Xue and the other three were very excited about Yin Shan's arrival. Without waiting for her to speak, they took her to visit.
Yin Shan was relieved. The four of them were truly working hard. The yield of hydroponic vegetables was gradually increasing, and the scale was growing. However, Zhou Xue soon offered a new suggestion: "Sister Shan, we're so short of manpower... The four of us are so busy every day. Although other residents will help, they are not professionals after all. This is different from ordinary planting and requires some professional knowledge. Can we recruit some students or professors from the Agricultural College?"
Yin Shan thought for a while and said, "Let's not expand the scale yet, Zhou Xue. I don't want to accept residents casually. If the people I accept are like you, then I will naturally have no worries. But if the people who come here have bad intentions, it's better not to accept them."
Zhou Xue nodded. Indeed, many people with professional knowledge are not necessarily good people. She can agree with Yin Shan's idea. After all, she doesn't want three people to come and form four gangs. If that happens, they will have no time to do their job well.
So he said, "Sister Shan, the four of us will do what we can. You'll make the decision on the residents. We trust your vision!"
Yin Shan patted her shoulder, encouraged the four little girls, and then went to Wang Qiang.
Wang Qiang oversees both the farming and infrastructure development. They're currently reinforcing each villa to prevent potential damage, and have recently begun working on the electricity supply. The base originally relied on Yin Shan's generator for power.
Although it is a product of the system, it is still difficult to cover the entire base with that thing. They are installing solar panels in each villa so that there is no need to worry about electricity problems.
Yin Shan asked, "Is there any way to get some kind of power storage device? What if sunny days become less and less frequent? Will there still be insufficient electricity?"
Wang Qiang said, "We're also considering this, and we're even considering whether we can use the groundwater system to generate electricity... but we're not sure if we can do it... after all, we're not very professional..."
Yin Shan expressed his understanding, but the power problem did need to be solved. If there was insufficient power when the eternal night came, they would be in a passive position.
She sighed softly. She always felt that time was tight and the task was heavy! She had also looked in the system mall. There was a power station that could be purchased, but the points required were too high.
At the current rate of progress, she won't have to think about this problem for at least a year, but the extreme heat may only last for a year, followed by earthquakes, and then eternal night.
Eternal night is the most dangerous!
Yin Shan went to check on the farm again, and sure enough, the mutated livestock's ability to survive was much stronger than before the apocalypse. They seemed to be completely incapable of feeling the hot weather.
She looked at the silly ones and they seemed to have adapted to the extremely hot weather and didn't feel much. Unlike them, they felt extremely hot outside!
Squeak!
Yin Shan was thinking when she heard Huihui's voice. She subconsciously lowered her head to look for him, but the little guy jumped directly onto her shoulder. Yin Shan said unhappily, "You didn't come out when I came back yesterday. Now you remember me?"
Squeak, squeak, squeak~~~
Huihui understood Yin Shan's words and anxiously tried to explain, but perhaps what he wanted to say was too complicated. Yin Shan said... I don't understand at all...
Then he thought of something, and Yin Shan picked up Huihui. His supernatural powers surged, and he tried to subdue Huihui like he subdued Xiao Teng.
But the supernatural power was only around Huihui and had no intention of entering its body.
Yin Shan sighed and said to himself, "I don't know how I can understand what you mean."
Huihui's little eyes rolled around several times. It understood what Yin Shan said, but Huihui said that it was just a little mouse and didn't know what to do.
The little vine, quietly serving as a belt, understood Yin Shan's intentions. It stretched out a small vine to encircle Hui Hui, who subconsciously tried to escape. Yin Shan was about to speak to stop the little vine, but sensing the emotional fluctuations coming from the little vine, she turned to comfort Hui Hui and said, "Don't be afraid, the little vine wants to play with you."
Huihui calmed down and looked at the vines of the small vine curiously, and his little paws kept trying to grab the vines to play with them.
Xiao Teng took advantage of Huihui's inattention and gave it a shot in the butt!
Squeak, squeak, squeak! Huihui immediately got furious and ran away.
The little vine waved its vines innocently, and then passed on a wave of emotions to Yin Shan.
After hearing what Xiao Teng said, Yin Shan directly cut off the small piece of vine that had just pierced Huihui's butt, and then touched Xiao Teng to comfort him.
He took out the water from the Spirit Lake, put the small piece of vine into the water, dripped two drops of his own blood into it, and began to greet Huihui in a humbly manner.
Huihui couldn't resist Yin Shan's sweet words and ran out again, but when he looked at Xiao Teng, his little eyes were still full of resentment. Yin Shan signaled Huihui to drink the water from Linghu Lake, although Huihui didn't know why.
But it believed that Yin Shan would not harm it, so it drank it all without hesitation. It did not even notice the expectant look on Yin Shan's face...
