MTL - Online Game: Island War-Chapter 27 granite

In the early morning, the morning sun was rising and the sky was clear. Lei Jiu stood by the sea and watched his men busy.

Today, they will carry out the exploration plan set two days ago.

Due to the possible dangerous factors on the outer islands, in addition to a few high-strength soldiers from Huanghuang Island, there are all 16 militiamen accompanying them this time.

As for Gongju Han, it's still too bad, so he stays on the island and trains by himself.

Among the protected objects, in addition to the island owner Lei Jiu, who is the top priority, there are also two prospectors, whose exploration targets are on good-quality stone and important minerals.

Although Lei Jiu himself can also undertake the exploration task, if he is alone, the efficiency is really not high, which is why two more entourages need to be protected.

Luo Zheng was in charge of commanding the militia team, and nicotine closely protected the island owner, while Nangong Ding was left by Lei Jiu to sit on the island.

As the population on the island increases, things on the island become more and more complicated, and Nangong Di is getting busier and busier, so he can't be easily mobilized.

Although Nangong Dian never complained to him, Lei Jiu could see that even though he could endure the boredom, he still hoped to go out often.

However, apart from Nangong Ding, there is currently no other person on Huanghuang Island who can handle it administratively.

Unless, Lei Jiu himself is willing to sit in the office. But is this possible?

Lei Jiu is absolutely unwilling to sit in the office.

Therefore, the problem of Nangong Ding can only be hoped that the system can quickly create a high-political talent for Huanghuang Island.

Of the six islands closest to Huanghuang Island, one has been merged, and the remaining five islands are today's exploration goals.

"Lord Island Master, it's ready!"

Lei Jiu nodded to Luo Zheng, "Then board the ship and set off!"

This time, they were no longer riding a small fishing boat, but a small paddle boat newly produced by the carpenter's workshop. It was more than eight meters in length, with two rows of eight paddles, and it could transport more than 30 people with a full load.

At the current carpenter workshop, there are a group of craftsmen who are specially responsible for shipbuilding. Lei Jiu plans to wait for the territory to refresh the talents with relatively high shipbuilding skills, so he will pull out these people individually and build a dock.

In this world with dense islands, if the shipbuilding technology falls behind, then the beatings will be well deserved.

Plan ahead, and after the island situation has entered a stage of steady development, this technology, which is extremely important in the future, must be planned in advance.

For the shipbuilding industry, where the production cycle has always been relatively long even with the continuous development of technology, the accumulation of craftsmen and skilled workers also requires early planning.

Everyone boarded the boat, Lei Jiu pointed to a hill-shaped island and said, "Go to that island first!"

His primary goal now is high-quality stone that can be used for system construction, followed by other minerals.

Of course, if there is a surprise like gold, silver and copper mines, he will definitely not refuse, although the hope is not very high.

In comparison, the mountainous terrain is always easier to mine. Even if only gypsum is found, it can improve the performance of the cement and reduce the construction difficulty of the engineering team.

Soon after the eight militiamen entered the bilge oars and took their positions, the eight long oars on both sides of the oars began to row in an orderly manner.

For this scullery boat that can take 30 to 40 people, the size of Lei Jiu and his party is in the early 20s, and the burden is not large. With the efforts of eight robust militiamen, the oar boat is very fast, about 40 minutes. Just landed on the target island.

This is the second island named by Lei Jiu as Island No. 1. As for the previous Island No. 1... it has been merged.

The area of ​​this island is also in the early 3 square kilometers. In fact, the six islands that make up the first-layer island chain around Huanghuang Island are all about the same size as the original Huanghuang Island. Only from a distance can you see a larger area. island.

Lei Jiu also sent people to explore and found that there are undercurrents in the outer waters of the first-layer island chain. With the current size and sturdiness of the ships, it is difficult to break through the blockade of the undercurrent and reach those islands.

Of course, if he wants to forcibly pass through, he is not helpless. He can still do it by relying on nicotine's flying thaumaturgy and Lingbo micro-step magic.

However, Lei Jiu knew in his heart that this undercurrent should be the blockade set by the system.

Maybe it's just a simple test, and if you pass it, you will get more benefits, but it may also be some kind of protective blockade.

The islands outside are not safe, as can be seen in the previous round of system announcements for the fusion of islands. However, if it is not for the island owner players to integrate the island and actively cause these troubles, these dangerous factors will not break out.

These dangers are forcibly set as triggers by the system.

However, no one can guarantee that the same is true in the sea outside. What if the creatures there are strongly aggressive and aggressive?

In the steady and rapid development stage of Huanghuang Island, and when the means of self-protection are not very sufficient, he will not take risks easily. At this stage, it is the most appropriate to fight steadily. Huanghuang Island is his foundation, and he cannot take its safety to risk.

What's more, he never fought unprepared battles, and now he has too little information to make targeted arrangements, and rash actions are not in line with his character.

It's not that he is conservative, it's just that he doesn't like gambling. Although luck can bring surprises, it's not worth relying on.

In his opinion, an adventure without sufficient intelligence support, that is gambling, and the act of leaving everything to luck is also irresponsible, and he does not approve of it.

Of course, if there is information to support, then whether to decide to take a risk depends on how big the benefits are.

There were no sandy beaches, shoals or flat land on the shore of Island 1. Lei Jiu and his party tied the boat to a raised stone and started to climb the slope. The whole island was a hill.

The hills and trees are high and the forests are deep. After a few steps in, you can only see the scattered sunlight that occasionally penetrates from the mottled leaves, and the chirping of insects and birds is heard from time to time, but Lei Jiu can't see the figures of these birds, they seem to be concentrated in the center. High in the canopy, I don't know what kind of bird it is.

The animal resources of Island 1 are obviously much richer than Huanghuang Island and the relic island that was previously integrated. Squirrels, rabbits, monkeys were the most numerous, and he also saw foxes, goats, deer, koalas, and snakes.

Hey? That's a weasel, hello! Don't scare it!

Come on, "Run!" It stinks!

......

The soil and vegetation coverage rate on the mountain is very high, UU reading www.uukanshu.com basically can't see the open-air stone area, but the seaside is full of rocks, and the stone walls can be seen everywhere, but those are not the qualified stones he is looking for.

There are two types of high-quality stone materials required for system construction. One is granite with a relatively hard texture, and the other is marble with relatively low hardness. Of course, it would be better if it was a rarer white marble.

But unfortunately, although the main chemical components of marble and white marble are calcium carbonate, the difference in rarity between the two can be seen by the suffix of one name being stone and the other being jade.

Lei Jiu didn't have such high expectations, as long as he found marbles.

What surprised everyone was that there was no vegetation on the top of a lush mountain.

"This is a very strong mountain!"

? ? ?

Everyone looked at their island owner in confusion, not understanding what this sentence meant.

"It's all bald, how could it not be strong?"

Everyone looked at each other in dismay, and didn't understand this stalk at all.

Speaking of which, does being strong have anything to do with being bald? In addition, can the mountain be evaluated by its strength? The island owner's words are really getting more and more profound.

"Lord Islander, many of the rocks exposed outside are granite!" They were the two most dedicated people in charge of exploration. They didn't stop to listen to the nonsense of their islander. A few words of effort paid off.

"Um!"

Lei Jiu nodded indifferently. In fact, he saw it when he first came up. Otherwise, where would he be feeling nonsense?

His calm performance shocked the hearts of his subordinates. Could it be that the reason why the island owner said this mountain is strong is because he could find what he needed here?

For a while, the figure of the island owner grew taller again in their hearts.
