Wasteland Development Diary.

Chapter 481: Electric Soul Flying into Space

The reconciliation between the Wasteland Development Company and the Legal Front, which were originally at loggerheads, caused an uproar in both the East and the West.

Messengers from all over the world came to Shagang, trying every possible means to gather intelligence and obtain the secrets behind it. The announcement only said that the two sides were engaged in in-depth cooperation on major technical projects.

It can make two sides that are almost at war shake hands and make peace in an instant, and the benefits involved are really fascinating.

However, the only person the visitors can interact with is the Minister of Foreign Trade, Hong Xun.

The most common answer is: "No comment."

The chairman never sees visitors and lives in seclusion in a high castle.

Many people have tried to use various advanced observation equipment to spy from various places to see what Chairman Zhou is doing and whether they can find any clues from his secluded life.

However, they immediately discovered that in addition to living with his assistant Yuanxiao, the chairman also lived with Ryoko from Waihai, and occasionally they could see the figures of the two angels of death.

So rumors began to spread that Zhou Yi just liked to sue angels and that he liked sisters, and all kinds of gossip spread like wildfire.

Some people even say that the young angel Sun Hao is actually Zhou Yi's illegitimate son, but in order to avoid suspicion, he let him take the surname Sun Chonglai.

What? Many years ago, it was actually Zhou Yi who abandoned Yuan Xiao. Later, when he became rich and came back, he found her again and wanted to make amends for the past...

Zhou Yi was furious after hearing this: "Whoever spreads negative information or spreads dirty rumors about me again will be sent to the motorcycle city to do hard labor!"

These voyeurs were quickly arrested and expelled.

One night, Zhou Yi rode a black horse to Shagang City and stopped at the rooftop of the lord of the territorial sea's mansion.

"Mr. Zhou, what brings you here?"

Mr. Shahai greets people with a smile as always.

Zhou Yi said: "Come and see the development of Dianhun."

The other person's smile turned bitter.

"Mr. Zhou, this matter...sigh."

It seems that things are not going well.

The Sand Sea Lord looked much thinner than before. He said, "Mr. Zhou, please follow me."

Zhou Yi followed it all the way into the basement, walked through an underground passage of about seven or eight hundred meters, and then stepped onto a staircase going upwards.

He looked around along the way and asked, "Is this the secret passage leading to the Dead Sea?"

"Yes. Mr. Zhou, when Lord Baili threatened me, I dug several secret passages leading to different directions for retreat at critical moments."

Lord Sha Hai said this and walked to the end of the stairs.

This is a high platform fixed in the Dead Sea, with a huge circular electric circle with a diameter of about ten meters suspended on the platform.

Zhou Yi sensed a familiar fluctuation of consciousness.

It's sandy.

It was much stronger than before. Although it had not yet reached the state of a light core, its energy density and strength far exceeded that of an ordinary Skywalker, so much so that circles of vortices visible to the naked eye appeared around it.

Lord Sha Hai said, "Mr. Zhou, since I discovered the Electric Soul, I have trained a total of 13 Electric Souls. But now, there are only 3 left."

"Electric souls have stronger power characteristics than electric cat forms. They are extremely thirsty for energy and have a strong sense of territory. If there are two electric souls in a large area, they will have a deep confrontation and annexation with each other. Power engineers say that this seems to be a characteristic of the electromagnetic field..."

It scratched its head with its claws. "It's like two balls of molten iron. If they get close to each other, they will merge into one. This is a mechanism of the electric soul. So they need to keep a long distance between each other. One in each area is enough, otherwise they will get close to each other and merge."

"After the fusion, the power of the electric soul has become stronger, but it is also more unstable and its energy consumption has increased."

The Lord of the Sea of Sand pointed to the quiet Electric Soul next to him and said, "Shalihuo is the result of the fusion of Shalijian and Shalihe, which is why it has grown so big. But it has also become very silent and not as lively as before. It has remained almost motionless until now and is unwilling to communicate through the Electric Modem transcoder."

Zhou Yi reached out and touched the sand.

Consciousness is turned on in sync.

"Shalihuo, are you in trouble now?"

A slow voice came from the arc: "Chairman, I... I don't know how to say it. I'm just very hungry. Very hungry. My mind is blank. I'm just hungry."

Zhou Yi took out the light storage box and directly drew out 1 light seeds.

All the electric souls were absorbed into the body.

It turned out that the child was too hungry to speak.

Zhou Yi fed it nearly 40 light seeds, and the sand dragon finally became energetic.

The originally static annular structure, like an aperture, began to change at this time. Its electric arc began to slowly expand and turned into some kind of strange silver wreath, rotating around Zhou Yi.

"Thank you, Chairman! I feel much better now!"

Sharihuo's voice message also became brighter and more powerful.

Zhou Yi looked at the sea lord beside him and asked: "Did you feed it energy?"

"I have fed it, Mr. Zhou. I swear to the gods. I just feel that no matter how much I feed it, it is useless. No matter whether I provide electricity or light seeds... it seems to be eating all the time, and there is no feedback."

Lord Sha Hai said cautiously, "So I think it might not be a problem in this regard."

Zhou Yi was annoyed: "It's the pain in the flesh, right?"

"..."

Lord Shahai rubbed his paws and smiled bitterly: "Mr. Zhou, you know the income of Shagang. In the past, it was only about 7000 yuan a year. It has only improved in the past two years since I followed the company."

"With the consumption boost from the company, the annual income of Sand Harbor City has reached 3 light seeds. Although I have some savings, plus the share from the war, I can't afford to use it for such a test..."

Zhou Yi thought so too.

When I am short of money, I will break a dollar into two halves to spend.

But the poverty in Shagang City still surprised Zhou Yi.

He thought about it carefully and said to the sea lord in front of him: "You have trained the electric cats into electric souls, and have made great efforts for the company and the alliance. For each electric soul, I will give you a subsidy of 10 light seeds."

Zhou Yi took out the light box and gave the money to Lord Shahai on the spot. The seal-shaped lord's eyes suddenly lit up, but he still gritted his teeth and waved his hand to refuse: "It is my honor to work for Mr. Zhou! I can't take this money. In fact, it is mainly to use my personal ability..."

"It's only natural to get paid for your work."

Zhou Yi directly stuffed it into his mouth: "We don't do those nonsense things."

"Indeed. You are right."

Only then did Lord Sha Hai accept it.

Zhou Yi asked: "Where are the other electric souls?"

"They're all in the cat house."

Lord Sha Hai put the light box into his pocket and said, "Because if they get close, something bad will happen, so I put them in a special cat house, and use light blockers to shield them. This way, they will not be able to sense other cats for the time being, and they will remain in a relatively stable and peaceful resting state."

There is a large cat house in each of the two rooms on the other side.

Through the transparent glass outside, Zhou Yi saw that the electric soul was coiled like a snake-like lightning, almost motionless, as if in a deep sleep.

These two electric souls, one is called Sharimei and the other is called Sharixiao.

Sha Haigong introduced: "Chairman, Sharimee has a good personality and is outgoing and cheerful, but she likes to fiddle with her arc structure to pursue the symmetry and perfection of the shape and structure. So I called her Sharimee."

"Sha Lixiao is more ferocious. He is a natural born warrior and is keen on fighting. He also has the strongest desire to merge and become stronger. He is the most troublesome for me to deal with."

Lord Shahai looked as if he wanted to say something but hesitated.

Zhou Yi said: "Just tell me if there is any situation. If there is any problem, we will work together to find a solution."

"Yes, you are right."

Lord Sha Hai took a deep breath and said, "Actually, there were originally four electric souls, and one was Sha Li Qing. Sha Li Qing was originally the strongest of all the electric souls, and in the best condition. It merged with five electric souls."

"But during a test in the Dead Sea, it flew away and disappeared."

"flew away?"

Zhou Yi frowned: "You mean, fly to the open sea?"

"No."

Sha Haigong said calmly: "According to the data provided by the satellite, the Shariqing not only flew out of the open sea, but also continued to rise into space...it escaped."

Zhou Yi immediately contacted Xingshu and retrieved the image records.

In the picture, the electric soul of the ring lightning breaks through the atmosphere and rises into the sky.

It has rings within rings, forming a string of electric circles from large to small, which reminds Zhou Yi of the ring-tossing toy he played with as a child.

These rings are like the tail of the electric soul, stretched out from the body to become a more three-dimensional electric arc cone structure.

Its electric ring has an adsorption effect on energy, forming a form that sucks in energy at the top and ejects energy beams at the tail, flying all the way out of the earth like an electric star.

In the upper part of the atmosphere where there is a lack of electrical conductors, it was unable to maintain its high speed and failed to break through the first cosmic speed of orbiting the Earth. It eventually fell into the outer sea and there was no follow-up.

Zhou Yi asked Sharihuo: "Do you like space?"

"Chairman, I like to be closer to energy."

Sharihuo replied: "The higher the energy density, the more we like it. This is an instinct. We will be more active and live more comfortably in areas with higher energy density."

"There is more energy in the sky, and we instinctively want to fly up into the sky, but I can still control myself."

Zhou Yi stroked it.

The characteristics of Electric Soul, the alienated form of the electric cat, gradually became clear.

They have the abilities of [Stick] and [Jet].

Requires a lot of energy.

They need to maintain a great distance from each other, otherwise they will merge and devour each other, merging into a larger electric soul structure.

Its instinct is very strong towards energy, and it wants to fly towards the sun, the source of the circular flow.

That being the case.

Zhou Yi said to Sha Haigong: "Shagang only needs to keep one electric soul. Sha Lihuo will be officially included in the company's employee list and continue to perform defense tasks here, connected to the sky dragnet, and display information here to the company and Shagang at any time."

"Sarimei will go to support the Shuanghe area. It is far away from the core area of the alliance and also needs a high-intensity defense unit. The local light seed reserves are sufficient and can support electric souls."

"As for Sharixiao, he's very brave. I'll have Heifu send him to serve at the Mars base. The energy on Mars is abundant and violent. Let him go and test the waters to see if he can adapt to the environment there."

"Lao Sha, you continue to cultivate the electric soul."

"Yes, Mr. Zhou."

Lord Sha Hai heaved a sigh of relief: "Now that they are all out, I am under much less pressure. I can start training them further. I was always worried that another electric soul would escape..."

"It's okay. I will ask Cat God to come over and communicate with them more often. We will not treat them unfairly if they are willing to follow the company, and we will not force them if they don't want to stay. This has always been our attitude."

Zhou Yi patted the big seal's sturdy forearm: "Don't feel any psychological pressure, let's keep in touch."

"Yes!"

……

We have dealt with the Electric Soul.

Zhou Yi was ready to start something he had long wanted to try.

Hei Fu is now a light core body, safe enough to pass through the space channel, so it's time to go and take a look at other worlds.

Zhou Yi decided to start with a lower difficulty level.

Go to the moon first.
