This Game is Too Real

Chapter 646: Self-healing material!

  Chapter 646 Self-healing materials!

  Not selling anymore? !

  After listening to the report from his salesman, Cindyson, who was drinking tea and flipping through the newspaper, froze on the spot and stopped turning over the newspaper.

  The salesman standing by the table nodded his head and said helplessly.

"Yes sir, we went to the station of the Boulder City militia regiment on the front line, and asked the commander to purchase the wreckage of the fruiting body, but they didn't even listen to the price we offered, and directly blocked us from the door— "

   "What's the reason?!" Sindison interrupted him hastily, grabbing the armrest of the chair with both hands, and said with righteous indignation, "Don't they know that if the remains of those fruiting bodies are left alone, it will cause serious plague?"

   "I... I don't know," the clerk looked nervously at the boss, and whispered submissively, "The reason they gave was that the alliance authorities took over these sub-entities."

  Hindison was dumbfounded after hearing this.

  Alliance authorities took over?

  What would they want that thing for? !

  In the luxurious Bugra Free State, Sindison Trading Company is just a small and inconspicuous company. Its only business is to supply raw materials for the production of synthetic food and organic fertilizers to the processing plants in the Free State.

  When the tide broke out in previous years, he would send people to Qingquan City to buy a batch of goods, and when they brought them back, they would make hundreds of millions of cloth dollars in profit.

  The remains of those fruiting bodies are like picking for nothing.

  Anyway, the poor in the Buguera Free State don’t care how the food they eat comes from, and food processing factories don’t even care about the source of nutrients.

   It just so happens that Boulder City also needs to deal with the wreckage of those fruiting bodies, and his sale is undoubtedly a win-win situation for all parties!

I heard that the wave after the warm winter will be stronger than in previous years. This year, Sindisson not only borrowed money from the bank to rent more than 30 heavy trucks and 100-person guards, but also personally led the team down to Dawn City and made a big job A preparation.

  However, when he was full of ambition and dreaming of making a fortune, the news brought back by the salesman he sent to the front line made him completely stunned.

  He even found a buyer.

  The alliance told him that the wreckage of those fruiting bodies will not be sold! ?

   What a joke!

  Although his fingers trembled with anger, Cindyson quickly calmed down.

  As the saying goes, the arms cannot twist the thighs.

  Facing the behemoth of the Alliance, a mere commercial firm is nothing more than an inconspicuous grasshopper.

  Although he didn't want to see his business firm, which he had worked so hard for many years, go bankrupt due to liquidated damages and money that hadn't been paid to the bank, but Sindisson knew very well that head-to-head confrontation would definitely not work.

   can only find a way from other places!

   Staring at his salesman, Cindyson asked word by word.

   "What about those sub-entities? What is the alliance going to do with it?"

  The salesman swallowed and whispered.

   "I heard that they were all sent to the East District of Qingquan City by the alliance authorities... I don't know exactly what they are doing."

   Sent to the East District of Qingquan City?

  Hindison frowned.

  Does he remember that the East End is not a forest-covered urban area?

  What are you sending them there for?

   Puzzled, Sindisson pondered for a moment, then looked at his subordinates and said.

   "Tomorrow morning, take me to the eastern suburbs of Qingquan City."

  The salesman nodded quickly.

   "Good boss!"

  …

  In the early morning of the next day, Sindisson got up early, took his salesman and several guards and left the hotel while it was still daylight.

  Leaving Shuguang City from the east, a group of people walked for more than ten miles, and finally arrived at the edge of the East District of Qingquan City.

  However, when he saw the scene in front of him clearly, he was shocked, and he froze for a long time before choking out a word.

   "...what the **** is this?"

   I saw a group of nibblers pushing a cart full of fruiting body remains, from the piled up hills of corpses to the half-collapsed building on the side.

  In the dark window, scarlet plaques can be seen slowly agitating—and that is exactly the shape of the hatching room!

  The guards standing beside Hindison couldn't help but clenched their guns tightly, and with their index fingers they released the safety, nervously guarding the direction of the hatching room.

   Nibblers really aren't worth being afraid of.

  However, if you add a creeper, or even a tyrant, things will be a big deal... In this complex terrain, even experienced mercenaries dare not say that they have a 100% chance of winning.

   Actually, there are creepers and tyrants here.

  Not far from the hatching room, next to an abandoned concrete building, a crawler on all fours is climbing straight up and down on the wall covered with slime mold, carrying a large pile of bricks or a large bundle of steel bars.

  They sent the bricks to the damaged part of the wall, where they were met by the drooping gnawers, who put the bricks on the damaged wall one by one.

   "They... are building walls?" The salesman looked in that direction in surprise, and the guards on the side were full of ghostly expressions.

   "Big Horned Deer God is above..."

   “When will those mushrooms build a house?!”

  Hindison did not speak, swallowed, took out a telescope from his pocket, and looked towards the waist of the concrete building, wanting to take a closer look.

   Immediately afterwards, he saw a scene that he would never forget in his life.

   I saw that the bricks were not stacked on the cement, but on a layer of light red creep.

  The creep is like a living thing, wriggling tiny cilia. At the moment of contact with the brick, the countless tiny cilia firmly grasped the brick, and then a light red bract grew from the gap, taking off the water and firmly fixing the brick on the damaged on the wall.

  Hindison was stunned by the scene in front of him.

   Really the sun is coming out from the west!

  These slime molds are repairing human buildings!

   What made him even more incredible was that Sindisson unexpectedly discovered that the building repaired by the slime mold was not very ugly, but had a unique natural beauty.

   At least, it is much more beautiful than the dilapidated buildings around it!

The light red creeper didn't look hideous or abrupt at all, and it was spread on the wall along the damaged gap, like some kind of artistic graffiti, showing the scars caused by the war two centuries ago in a unique way. way recorded.

  The only suspense now is whether the house repaired by slime mold can live in people.

  Hindison asked himself, he would not dare to live in it. Perhaps the poor in the Buguera Free State don't mind the living environment, but he doesn't want to be soaked in musty spores every day.

  The salesman standing next to him was obviously the same, shaking his head as he watched the slowly repaired scars on the abandoned building.

   "I wouldn't live in this kind of place... I always feel like it's some kind of trap, and once you get in, it will swallow you whole, like a pitcher plant."

   Several other guards looked at each other and nodded in agreement.

"me too…"

   "Unless you pay me."

   "But can this kind of house really live in? They don't even use cement."

   "Regardless of whether it can live in people or not, now I finally know what the Alliance is planning to hoard these fruiting entities." Putting down the binoculars in his hand, Sindison cursed with an ugly face, but he was helpless.

  Although I don't know what method the alliance used to make those slime mold fruiting bodies obediently work, but that's all their business.

  Before, he thought about buying for zero yuan, such as sneaking over in the dark, pulling a few trucks of fruiting bodies and running north.

  Anyway, the East District of Qingquan City is so big, the alliance may not be able to find it.

   But looking at it now, this method is definitely not going to work. Those fruit entities are like people with independent consciousness. I don’t think they will watch them load the corpses of the same kind on the truck.

   Just as Sindison was feeling depressed, the sound of an engine was heard not far away, and two motorcycles drove over from the side street.

  Hindison and his party immediately looked over there, only to see that the motorcycle had the Union flag on it, and the badge of the First Corps was printed on the front of the car.

  Four soldiers jumped off the motorcycle, stared at the strange group of people vigilantly, and walked towards them.

   "Who are you? What are you doing here?"

  Sindison said quickly.

   "I'm a merchant passing by here, what's the situation here? Why are there so many slime mold fruiting bodies—"

"That's none of your business," the soldier said with a cold face, "The front is a military restricted area, and unauthorized entry is prohibited. Now I ask you to leave here immediately, otherwise we will take compulsory measures against you." measure."

  Currently, the Alliance Ecological Reserve is not open to the public.

  Although things here are not a secret, except for the residents of the refuge, irrelevant people who enter this area will be forcibly driven away.

   After all, the public still has great doubts about slime molds. If someone encounters danger in this area at this time, even if Xiaoyu's fruiting body is not responsible, it is almost impossible to explain clearly.

   Seeing that there were only four soldiers in this group, a young guard following Hindison couldn't help but be a little contemptuous, and said mockingly.

   "Coercive measures? How many of you?"

  The soldier was not irritated by his provocation, but just looked at him playfully.

   "Want to try?"

  The survivors in Hegu Province have a tough folk style, especially in Qingquan City. He has seen a lot of thorns who are awesome with a gun hanging around their necks.

  The guard frowned, and was about to say something cruel, but was pulled back by the boss next to him, and gave him a hard look.

  Hindison wanted to slap this guy twice.

  He came here to ask for money, not to make trouble for himself!

  Looking at the four soldiers who were waiting in full battle with a smile on his face, Sindison softened his attitude and said in an apologetic tone.

   "I'm sorry, military lords, we are new here and don't know the rules here... We will leave immediately."

   As he spoke, he took out a few banknotes and wanted to hand them to the captain, but the captain pushed them away with a look of disdain.

   "Take your money and leave immediately, this is the last warning."

"Yes Yes!"

  Hindison nodded quickly, pulled the salesman beside him and the unconvinced guard, and hurriedly left this place of right and wrong.

   The soldiers of the First Corps followed them until they left the city completely.

   Looking at the two motorcycles parked on the other side of the street, the salesman next to Hindison had an angry expression on his face, and couldn't help asking.

   "Boss, should we just forget about it?"

   "Forget it?" Sindisson narrowed his eyes slightly, and said with a chuckle, "How could it be just forgotten."

   Another guard who had been silent behind him heard this, hesitated a little, and said in a low voice.

   "Boss...the patrol here is too tight, we were discovered as soon as we arrived here, and it is not easy to sneak out."

   "Steal? Haha," Hindison glanced at his subordinates, curled his lips in disdain, "Am I the kind of person who needs to steal?"

  Just now, he suddenly thought of a good idea, maybe not only can the alliance spit out this hot potato, but maybe even get a few alive ones to take back for research.

  A group of subentities capable of functioning on the production line…

  Thinking of this, Sindisson felt a hot feeling in his heart, wishing to start implementing his genius plan immediately.

  Seeing the confident expression on the boss's face, the salesman immediately understood, approached the boss and asked in a low voice.

   "Boss... what are your orders?"

  Hindison smiled slightly, and whispered something in his ear.

"It's not just us who come here from the Buguera Free State, but also other merchants... You find their bosses, send them an invitation letter, and say that the boss of Sindisson Firm wants to treat them to a drink, by the way Let’s discuss big things together.”

   Paused, he looked at the guard standing aside, beckoned the man to come closer, and continued to whisper in his ear.

   "You can take a detour in a while and go to the place where we were just now to take a few photos... I will be of great use."

  …

   While the merchants from Buguera were secretly planning, Chu Guang happened to be inspecting the ecological protection area.

  After a day of practice and summing up experience yesterday, his little players have become more and more proficient at using Xiaoyu's fruiting body.

   Especially some life professional players.

  In order to earn back the silver coins spent on purchasing fruit entities, they can say that they have thought of all the ways they can think of.

  Some fell trees, some hunted, some helped build houses, and some even took orders for garbage sorting from industrial areas.

  With their assistance, this ecological reserve, which has nothing but slime molds and forests, is gradually showing its economic value.

   What surprised Chu Guang the most was that his little players had a great idea of ​​applying the fruiting bodies of slime molds to the construction site.

  It turns out that to build a house, they need to build scaffolding first, with cranes and other engineering equipment before they can start construction.

  Now, however, the creeps covering the walls are natural scaffolding, and the creepers who can climb straight up and down on the wall are natural brick movers.

  Now not only the labor of moving bricks is saved, they even improved the materials used in construction.

   That is, the slime mold fruiting body is used instead of cement as an adhesive between bricks.

   Chu Guang, who heard about this from Xiaoqi, was immediately shocked by the whimsical imagination of these players.

  Can this slime mold still play like this?

   "Use creep to replace cement... Is the strength of this material really okay?" Looking at the building that is self-repairing at a speed visible to the naked eye, Chu Guang was stunned for a long time and couldn't help asking.

   There was a joyful call in the communication channel.

   "Eep!"

  Sitting on Chu Guang's shoulders and shaking his calf, Xiao Qi translated happily.

   "Xiao Yu said that this is the adhesive bacteria made by using the DNA recovered from the evolution body of the 'Decadent Knight'. After being spread into a creep, dehydration can produce an effect similar to that of cement. Not only is it very strong, but it can also repair itself!"

   Self-healing concrete?

No-

   This should not be considered concrete, right?

  Bio-hybrid building materials?

  Chu Guang forgot where he saw it. I heard that when the ancients built bridges, they would breed oysters under the piers in order to make the bridge stable.

  Because of its rapid growth, strong fecundity, and good gelling properties, stones can be bonded into a solid whole at the bottom of the river. This method is also known as the method of "planting oysters to consolidate the foundation".

  Inspired by the player's brain, Xiao Yu applied this method to repair the high-rise buildings left over from the prosperous era.

   The creep filled between the bricks not only has the same adhesion as cement, but also can repair itself when damaged!

  Although this building method sounds a bit too avant-garde, under the command of the players, the results seem to be surprisingly good?

   At this moment, Chu Guang suddenly had a more avant-garde idea.

   "Can this strain... survive in a vacuum?"

  Xiaoyu: "Eh?"

Xiao Qi: "Well... Xiaoyu said that it has not tried it, but the brood it devoured first has experience in surviving in a near-vacuum environment, and it should be fine if it is slightly improved... Master, what do you want to use it for? ?"

   "Used on starships!" Chu Guang said without thinking.

   Not only Xiao Yu, but even Xiao Qi was stunned.

   "Star...starship?"

   Does the Alliance have such a thing?

   "That's right!" Chu Guang had a happy smile on his face, "But the starship is still too early for us, let's try it with the Iron Heart first."

  Armor that can repair itself!

  If this vision can be realized, it would be amazing!

  Thinking of those heaven-defying evolutionary bodies produced by the brood nest in the city center, he felt that his idea was not completely impossible.

  Chu Guang became more and more excited as he thought about it.

   Just when he was about to take action, Xiao Qi who was sitting on his shoulder suddenly spoke.

   "Master, a researcher from the academy sent a message saying that he wants to chat with you face to face. Do you need me to arrange a meeting time for you?"

   "A researcher at the college?" Stopping the thoughts that kept fermenting in his mind, Chu Guang turned his face to Xiao Qi and asked, "Which researcher?"

  Xiao Qi continued.

   "It's that B-level researcher named Yang Kai. He wants to discuss cooperation with you on behalf of the academy..."

  Hearing Yang Kai's name, Chu Guang was slightly surprised.

   It's not that he was surprised by that guy's identity, but that that guy has always been sitting on a scientific research ship as a holographic image, and this time he is willing to chat with me face to face?

   He could probably guess what he wanted to talk to him, and Chu Guang couldn't help but put on a playful smile on his face.

   "Just arrange it today... No, let him wait for me in the conference room of the Union Building at noon tomorrow."

  Xiao Qi replied energetically.

"receive!"
