Chapter 271 Departure



This place may not be the best as a base camp, but he has no choice because he doesn't know how to fly a spaceship and can't move to another location.

Of course, for this civilization that has already mastered the technology of controlled nuclear fusion, it doesn’t matter where the camp is built. At least in the early stages, there is no need to worry about energy shortages.

He was alone and progress was slow. Relying on the only two remaining large engineering vehicles, it took him three full months to install the entire colonial suit.

“It’s not easy.”

He was standing in the control center of the newly built base. The control system in front of him was the one on the supply spacecraft, which was moved directly here to serve as the base's control system.

"Start," he said, pressing the red button.

There was only a buzzing sound and the ground shook.

Then, an electronic voice sounded, "The energy device started successfully, the load is normal, the output voltage is stable, and various settings are being turned on. All functions in the main control room are turned on, the biological manufacturing room is started, the mechanical manufacturing room is started, the electronic manufacturing room is started, and the chemical manufacturing room is started..."

Following a series of prompts, it meant that the base began to operate normally.

"All equipment at the base has been successfully turned on and everything is normal."

After hearing the last reminder, Chen Xu was completely relieved and said, "For the next year, we will implement Plan B9, which will last for one year."

Within the system, there are multiple options to choose from, and you can even make a plan yourself.

He didn't bother thinking about these things, but instead chose one from multiple options.

Although the large nuclear fusion power generation device buried deep underground can provide a steady supply of energy, the output of each manufacturing room is limited, and there are certain rules for what to produce first and what to produce later.

For example, in the biological manufacturing room, any organism can be manufactured, and the DNA of all organisms on Earth is stored in it. However, there are only ten culture tanks, which means that a maximum of ten species can be cultivated at one time.

Another example is the mechanical manufacturing room, which can customize metal parts of any shape, provided that the volume does not exceed a certain range. Similarly, there are also limits on production.

The same is true for other manufacturing rooms.

At this time, we have to carefully calculate what to make first, what can be made later, and how much of each. Because the manufacturing room can only make relatively simple items, such as robots, which cannot be made directly, we can only make parts first and then assemble them.

From here, we can see the limitations of this colonization set. If you want to truly replicate yourself, you can only climb the science and technology. This requires sufficient resources and a long time.

Because of this, a detailed plan is extremely important. It is necessary to maximize the use of limited production without causing waste.

Of course, the environment of each planet is different, and the options chosen will also have huge deviations.

The clouds in the sky of this planet are very thick and the sun rarely shines, so solar power generation is useless. The same is true for wind power generation. Judging from the data collected in the past few months, the wind here is not strong, and the power of nuclear fusion is not unlimited, so other methods of power generation must be considered.

There were too many things to consider. He didn't think that the plan he came up with on the spur of the moment could compare to the plans summarized by predecessors in the system.

After the base was officially put into operation, Chen Xu stayed there for another two months. Only after the first batch of cyborgs were born did he leave with peace of mind to look for Yang Jinxia and the others.

The so-called cyborgs are humans created through biotechnology. In his previous dream, Chen Xu had seen similar technology and was no longer surprised by it.

What is the most important thing on this desolate planet? Of course, it is people. It is impossible for him to manage such a large base alone.

Naturally, he used all the ten culture tanks in the biological manufacturing room to cultivate cyborgs.

When a cyborg is born, he has the physique of an adult, and his brain is instilled with the corresponding knowledge. He can start working immediately, which makes him an extremely convenient labor force.

However, this technology is strictly prohibited by law. Only people like Chen Xu, who have been stranded on a desolate planet and obtained colonization rights, can make an exception and use this technology.

Of course, the cyborgs that come off the production line in two months have great flaws. They have almost no learning ability and are not flexible enough. They are a bit like robots and do things in a rigid manner. Moreover, their lifespan is generally very short, with an average of only five years.

There are more advanced bio-humans, but they take longer to cultivate, requiring half a year. The highest level of bio-humans requires a year.

Even the highest level of cyborgs are still very different from normal humans. To truly revive a civilization, you need natural people.

However, the growth cycle of human beings is too long. It takes at least 20 years to complete basic education and enter the workplace. In the early stage when labor is most needed, there is no need to consider it at all.

After the ten cyborgs were born, Chen Xu observed them for two days. Seeing that they quickly got the hang of things, he finally felt relieved. He drove a large transport truck carrying all kinds of supplies, left the base, and went to look for Yang Jinxia and Bai Jinxuan.

In the blink of an eye, they entered the dreamland, and more than a year had passed. In this year or so, he was busy with various things and basically never stopped.

He was very worried about the two of them. In a world like this, anyone with a weaker psychological endurance would probably be driven crazy.

He guessed that they should be members of the previous exploration team. His spaceship had the coordinates of the last landing ship. The distance was quite far.

He was driving a large transport vehicle, which was part of the colonial set and had a large loading capacity. He brought a lot of things in the vehicle, including food and various daily necessities, as well as weapons.

This world is not safe. In addition to creatures like blackbirds, there are also wild beasts. After leaving the base camp, he must be extremely careful to avoid any setbacks.

This transport vehicle is very sturdy and will remain safe even if it encounters a blackbird again.

In addition, he also brought a drone for reconnaissance. There were not many robots and drones on the landing ship. Several of them had crashed due to various accidents before. This one was the last one. So he was extra cautious.

He headed towards his destination, sleeping only four or five hours a day, and spending the rest of the time on the journey.
