Chapter 477 Shipbuilding!
Chapter 477 Shipbuilding!
"Uh... Uncle Qin, Brother Chen, don't be so pessimistic!"
Given the size of the Earth and its inherent inertia, changes in its orbit should not be too sudden.
It's November now, isn't it?
We're in the Northern Hemisphere, so the temperature should continue to get colder!
It won't start to change until after the winter solstice, no matter what.
Even if we take a step back and assume the temperature continues to rise...
We can also rely on the ice-type evolvers and Brother Chen's decrees to maintain the floating ice beneath our feet!
As for what to do next, there will always be a way!
Sensing the unusually oppressive atmosphere, Bai Jue maintained her usual optimism and encouraged everyone with a smile.
She could see that many people already had expressions of regret on their faces.
There's nothing we can do about it.
Originally, I would have been able to return to the Dragon Kingdom in two days at most.
No matter how the environment changes, there are always places on the vast continent suitable for most organisms to live in.
However, a dramatic change occurred halfway through their journey, leaving them stranded on an isolated island.
If it were a truly isolated island, that would be acceptable.
But beneath their feet was not an isolated island connecting the seabed and the continental shelf, but a small, rootless floating ice island!
This ice floe, though seemingly huge and solid, is actually incredibly fragile.
It will melt when the temperature rises.
It will break under towering waves.
Even a giant evolved creature like Baymax, with its astonishing size, can pry open a hole in it with sheer brute force.
This made everyone present feel unsafe.
More importantly, this journey home, whether a few days earlier or later, would have allowed me to miss this upheaval.
How can this not breed negative emotions in everyone's hearts?
Even Cang Nian frowned deeply at this situation.
He won't hesitate to fight if given the chance.
However, the current problem cannot be solved simply by having strong combat power.
Fortunately, the potential crisis is not imminent, and there is still time to carefully consider how to deal with it.
"Yichen's law stipulates that repairing a crack in the floating ice is almost the limit."
Among us, there are only a few hundred ice-type evolvers in total, and only six ice-type evolvers are at the fourth tier.
If the temperature continues to rise and reaches the normal temperature above zero.
Then it's almost inevitable that this ice floe will melt.
My suggestion is to start building boats now to ensure we have a place to stand on the sea after the ice floes melt and break up.
Fortunately, not everyone succumbed to negativity when faced with crisis and hardship.
Qin Changyi, being the oldest and most capable fighter among the team members, knew he had to take the lead, so he clapped his hands and spoke again.
Dwelling on anxiety and regret will not solve the problem.
Only by calming down, pooling our wisdom, and combining everyone's strength can we overcome this difficulty!
"Shipbuilding? Do we have anyone here who knows how to build ships?"
Besides, shipbuilding requires a complete production line, right?
Also, where are we going to get all the materials for a ship that can hold two million people?
Upon hearing this, Yichen subconsciously asked a few questions.
"Regarding shipbuilding technology, we had already done the research when selecting crew members."
There is a group of researchers specializing in shipbuilding at Cannes University in Cannes.
There is also a group of professors from Harbin Institute of Technology in Harbin.
In terms of materials, all these transport vehicles, artillery emplacements, and guns, all added together, should amount to around 100,000 tons of steel.
When smelted together with the skeletons of evolved organisms, more and stronger alloy materials can be produced.
Disregarding comfort and functionality, creating a giant ship that merely serves as a place to land and for short-term residence is barely sufficient.
The only problem is the time factor.
Without a highly efficient production line, even with tens of thousands of evolved beings working together, this would still take at least several months to complete.
In response to Yichen's question, Qin Changyi shared his thoughts.
"Dismantle the transport trucks and the weapons? This..."
Qin Changyi's surprising words left Yi Chen even more dumbfounded.
"At this stage, these conventional firearms no longer have much impact on high-end warfare."
With the resurgence of spiritual energy, the decisive role of evolutionary power has once again overshadowed technological means.
Let the things of the past become giant ships, carrying us into a new era.
Qin Changyi sighed, then said with a firm gaze.
After Qin Changyi said that, Yichen nodded in relief.
The current battle can no longer be resolved with guns and bullets.
These things should also retire from the stage of history.
Now, the most important thing is to make full use of what the Northeast Allied Army of the Dragon Kingdom has to solve the current predicament!
"However... how do we solve the production line problem?"
A colossal ship carrying two million people—even before the resurgence of spiritual energy, this would have required a complete industrial system to accomplish, wouldn't it?
Next, Yichen pointed out the most difficult problem to solve.
A giant ship is made up of at least tens of thousands of parts of different specifications; it is the crystallization of human industrial system.
It can be said that a country that can independently build a giant ship weighing over 10,000 tons, even if a considerable portion of all the parts are imported from other countries, has already reached the forefront of the world's industrial system.
Now, the Northeast Allied Army of the Dragon Kingdom needs to build a giant ship that can carry two million people, and there are many experts in both theory and practice.
But the difficulty involved is still off the charts.
Not to mention, this giant ship had to be completed before the ice floes melted and disintegrated.
This is almost an impossible task.
"Industrial...production line..."
Wait! Can I do it like this...?
Listening to Qin Changyi and the others' discussion, Cang Nian was also thinking about how to resolve the current predicament.
Actually, for him, and even for Tiger Dad and the others, this is not a real predicament.
Tigers are excellent swimmers and are not afraid of the cold. Even if they are soaking in the icy seawater for a long time, they will not have any major problems.
Even though Tiger Brother looks chubby, he actually has a lower fat density than muscle, so he can float on water and sleep!
Tiger Brother had often slacked off like this when hunting at sea before.
Once Cangnian discovers this, he'll inevitably get a beating.
However, Cangnian and Yichen, Qin Changyi and others were already so familiar with each other that they were like family.
In addition, at least half of the two million people in the Northeast Allied Army of the Dragon Kingdom provided him with offerings, making him far stronger than other evolved creatures of the same level.
In modern terms, if you enjoy rights, you should also fulfill corresponding obligations.
In more mystical terms, if you get involved in karma, you will suffer retribution if you try to get rid of it.
Therefore, what Yichen and the others are doing is Cangnian's own business, and he will not stand idly by.
"Ow~!"
Thinking of this, Cang Nian let out a howl.
Then, with a thought, a figure appeared out of thin air before everyone's eyes.
