Chapter 195 The Active Volcano Thrown Out (4K)
A special forces member who was watching from a distance was stunned when he saw it.

Then a hint of fear flashed in his eyes, and he quickly picked up the walkie-talkie.

"Everyone evacuate immediately!"

Because what the collector took out of the glass case was a volcano.

As he hurled it, the volcano released its sluggish, miniature state in mid-air.

From the outside, it looks like nothing more than a dark red pebble that has been thrown out.

However, when it landed on the humus layer covered with fluorescent moss, the air in the entire forest suddenly froze.

The moss's faint glow carbonized into ash upon contact, and a dark red ripple silently spread from the point of impact, instantly melting the ground in its path.

Immediately following was a deafening explosion, and the "pebble" instantly twisted and collided, the rock shell disintegrating into countless burning fragments in a fraction of a second.

It frantically recovered its appearance at an astonishing speed, first rising into a lava cone hundreds of meters high, and then spewing out a large number of semi-solidified magma balls.

These magma balls exploded in the air, creating a rain of fire that ignited the spores suspended in mid-air.

The forest instantly transformed into a burning inferno. The vines on the ground withered and charred in the flames, the resin boiled and evaporated instantly, and the humus layer that had accumulated over thousands of years turned into a churning tar swamp.

The majestic trees were falling one after another, merging into the fiery red stream formed by boiling lava.

Li Ye's expression changed instantly, even from a distance.

From his perspective, the forest looked like a nearly 1,000-meter-high active volcano had suddenly appeared.

The collector's act of throwing an active volcano instantly wiped out more than half of the gnoll mobile city.

But his attacks were indiscriminate, and many of his fellow giants who were fighting the enemy were also killed.

Li Ye slowly picked up the walkie-talkie.

"Yang Zheng, how much longer until you're in position?"

At this very moment, the Peacemaker had already quietly moved forward.

As everyone had predicted, the field of vision in the Giant Tree Forest was far too narrow; one needed to be very close to spot the Collector and fire upon him.

"Soon, Alliance Leader," Yang Zheng replied.

His heart started pounding.

After rounding the giant tree ahead, the Peacemaker had a wide field of vision, allowing it to target the Collector and fire.

The collector is already badly injured; a single electromagnetic railgun shot would definitely destroy it.

If that doesn't work, then fire another round of artillery salvo.

As the Peacemaker passed the giant tree, the Collector suddenly appeared in Yang Zheng's line of sight.

However, upon seeing the collector's actions, Yang Zheng's expression suddenly changed.

Because the collector took something else out of the glass case.

It was a town inhabited by jackals.

He was now preparing to throw it out to wipe out the remaining gnoll mobile city in one fell swoop.

"Fire! Fire immediately!" Yang Zheng shouted hoarsely.

It wasn't to save the gnolls from moving the city, but because the town was simply too big!

Once it breaks free from its stagnation, the area will be completely transformed.

At his command, the electromagnetic railgun immediately opened fire.

The instant the projectile struck the collector, a strange concentric ripple spread across his body like water, followed by a shockwave that shattered the earth.

The collector's chest was instantly dented into a bowl-shaped pit with a diameter of tens of meters, and spiderweb-like cracks spread out from there.

The glass cabinet behind him was also pierced, and the entire cabinet shattered and collapsed violently like an ice sculpture struck by an invisible giant hammer.

But the Peacemaker's firing came too late; the Collector had already thrown the town out.

The latter, like a small pebble carelessly tossed aside, landed on the ground.

The next second, the entire ground shattered as if struck by a heavy hammer. What spewed out of the cracks was not soil, but twisted and deformed steel bars and concrete.

The entire miniature, frozen town began to rapidly return to its original state. Buildings expanded like inflated glass vessels, asphalt roads snaked and cracked through the forest like giant black pythons, and lampposts pierced the ground like spears.

As the city descended, countless giant trees in the area collapsed and were completely buried, along with the remaining giants and gnolls who moved the city.

Yang Zheng was already covered in cold sweat.

Fortunately, the collector didn't throw it in his direction, and the Peacemaker quickly retreated after the electromagnetic railgun finished firing, so it wasn't affected.

"Are you alright, Yang Zheng?" Li Ye's voice came through the walkie-talkie.

"I'm fine," Yang Zheng replied, still shaken. "The collector has been killed. Hurry and pick up the fallen items!"

Li Ye was immediately overjoyed and quickly went into the cockpit of the Starship to give Tang Fang orders.

"rush!"

As Tang Fang floored the accelerator, the Starship hurtled toward the collector's corpse like an arrow released from a bow.

After docking, Liye quickly dispatched people to pick up the fallen debris.

During this time, the deployed special forces members returned to the deck one after another.

Li Ye looked at the completely destroyed glass cabinet.

After losing the glass case, the remaining miniature items inside were never restored to their original state.

It is clear that only collectors possess the ability to contain and enlarge/shrink objects.

"This wild boss is really powerful," he remarked.

The Giant Civilization certainly had many BOSS-level giants, but the Collector's combat power definitely ranks among the top three.

Just then, a loud commotion suddenly came from afar.

Li Ye turned his head and saw that it was a group of giants who had been attracted by the commotion.

The giants were also greatly surprised when they saw the scene.

Upon noticing the Starship next to the collector's body, they became even more enraged.

"Damn humans! They actually killed our leader!"

"Destroy this mobile city!"

"Follow me!"

The giants then gathered together and charged forward in a mighty force.

Li Ye quickly picked up the walkie-talkie.

"Yang Zheng, provide me with fire support!"

No sooner had the words been spoken than the Peacemaker unleashed a volley of fire.

Intense artillery fire instantly enveloped the giants.

The Starship suddenly accelerated and sped away.

After the smoke cleared, the surviving giants rushed over the corpses of their companions in a frenzy.

To avoid the firepower of the mobile city, they chose to disperse their formation.

"Should we make a move with the Iron Whale, Alliance Leader?" Fang Yong asked.

Li Ye was about to agree, but then shook his head after regaining his senses.

There were hundreds of these giants, and they all possessed a wide variety of intelligence, which even the combined efforts of three mobile cities could not defeat.

“You and Yang Zheng go first, I’ll lead them away from another direction,” he replied. “Everyone, return to the basin area and regroup.”

Under the command of Li Ye, the Peacemaker fired a large number of smoke shells, obscuring the giants' vision, while it accelerated and ran in another direction.

When several giants caught up, the electromagnetic railgun on its deck suddenly started up and instantly killed one of the giants.

After witnessing the tragic fate of their companions, the remaining giants chose to be afraid.

The Iron Whale, which had been camouflaged in the city, quietly withdrew in another direction.

The Starship was in a rather awkward position. The giants saw it as the culprit who killed the collector and began to relentlessly pursue it.

The Starship maneuvered to evade while firing wildly.

During this period, a number of level 1 mobile cities from the Gnoll civilization also joined in the fun.

They chose to attack the Starship and the Giants indiscriminately.

In an instant, the three parties were locked in a fierce battle.

Taking advantage of the chaos, the Starship activated its urban camouflage and entered disguise mode.

Upon seeing the mobile city vanish in an instant, the giants were initially stunned, then frantically searched their surroundings.

After a lot of trouble, the Starship finally managed to shake off the enemies.

Only after confirming that it was safe did Li Ye feel relieved and begin to check the Collector's belongings.

[35274 crystal coins.]

【1642单位3级铁矿，1023单位3级煤炭，894单位3级燃料。】

[Level 3 City Building - City Power Station Design Drawings]

[Design drawings for a Level 3 waterborne propulsion system]

[Design blueprints for the Level 3 water vehicle "Magnetic Storm Boat"]

[Level 3 Robot Butler]

[Design blueprints for a 4-stage rocket]

Li Ye was the first to look at the rocket design drawings.

【Item Name: "Tissot III" Rocket】

[Level: Level 4]

【附带效果：1.推进效率+30% 2.近地轨道运载能力+30% 3.大气层耐热能力+70%】

【打造需要：500单位铁矿（4级），200单位燃料（4级），200单位精密配件（4级）】

"It's actually rocket design blueprints?" he muttered to himself.

The primary function of rockets is to send satellites, space station components, and even manned spacecraft into their designated orbits.

Having a rocket project is equivalent to having space deployment capabilities for mobile cities.

That being said, launching a rocket requires a rocket launch platform, as well as collecting design blueprints for satellites, space station components, and manned spacecraft.

Incidentally, although rocket launch platforms are urban structures, they cannot be built on mobile cities.

First, the exhaust flame from a rocket ignition can reach temperatures of 2500-3000 degrees Celsius, causing significant damage to the surrounding ground.

Second, the sound pressure level of a rocket during takeoff can reach 180-220 decibels, which is equivalent to 100 times that of a jet aircraft.

Third, rockets produce large amounts of toxic gases when they burn.

Fourth, the vertical load on the launch platform during rocket takeoff is also extremely large, and the mobile city carrying the platform naturally cannot withstand it.

Therefore, the best solution would be to find a spacious site to build a rocket platform and then launch the rocket.

Compared to the role of rockets, Li Ye felt that building it wasn't too expensive.

To his regret, the Tissot 3 rocket did not have a reusable capability.

"Come to think of it, I never imagined that a Level 4 mobile city could actually explore space," he thought to himself.

Even so, Li Ye still needs to find a way to collect design blueprints for rocket launch platforms, manned spacecraft, and space stations.

In addition, he was also very curious about whether the space environment on Weilan Star was safe, and whether humans and monsters would fight each other in space.

As he pondered this, he couldn't help but look up at the sky.

"Could advanced monster civilizations exist in space?"

After finishing his reverie, his gaze fell on the Level 3 robot butler.

This robot butler has clean, sharp lines, like a futuristic product that stepped out of a minimalist designer's sketch.

It has a height of 1.6 meters, which is ergonomically optimized so that it does not make people feel intimidated, and can stretch its arms to reach objects at high places.

The entire body is covered with a matte white composite material shell, which feels warm and smooth like ceramic.

According to the introduction, the robot butler can do all the housework that Li Ye could imagine.

Overall, it's a pretty good Tier 3 item.

So Li Ye kept it for himself and took charge of cleaning his own room.

Once Tomorrow advances to level 4 and obtains the level 4 robot upgrade blueprint, it can unlock its level 4 projects by upgrading the robot butler, thus enabling mass production.

Then, Li Ye looked at the design drawings for the city's power station.

【Item Name: City Power Station】

[Level: Level 3]

[Additional benefits: 1. Can convert urban energy into electricity to supply the city, and significantly improve conversion efficiency. 2. Every 1% of urban energy can be converted into 1000 kilowatt-hours of electricity.]

[Crafting Requirements: 600 units of iron ore (Level 3)]

"Can 1% of the city's energy be converted into so much electricity?" Li Ye exclaimed in surprise.

There were more than 1 people on board the Tomorrow, which, if we calculate based on 3 people per household, would be about 3300 families.

If 20% of the city's energy is converted daily, that's 20000 kilowatt-hours of electricity, which averages out to about six kilowatt-hours per household per day.

That's really not much.

If it's a Level 4 city power plant, the conversion efficiency should be even higher, at which point electricity freedom will be achieved.

The higher the level of a mobile city, the less it lacks energy.

Li Ye immediately decided that after returning to the basin area, he would invest steel resources to build this city power plant.

Then he looked at the design drawings for the watercraft.

【Item Name: Magnetic Storm Speedboat】

[Level: Level 3]

[Additional effects: 1. Discharge attack range +30% 2. Can fire small electromagnetic pulses to paralyze targets]

【打造需要：150单位铁矿（3级），50单位雷霆矿石（3级），50单位水上载具精密配件（3级）】

From its appearance, the Magnetic Storm Boat has two huge discharge collars around its body, which are its main weapons.

If an ordinary person is struck by the electric current it emits, they will die instantly.

The ability to emit small electromagnetic pulses is quite good.

It can instantly disable small enemy watercraft.

However, when dealing with large ships such as destroyers and cruisers, the combat effectiveness of the Magnetic Storm Boat is rather lackluster.

Before it even gets close to its target, it will be bombarded by dense missile and machine gun fire.

Even if it manages to get close to the target, the small electromagnetic pulse emitted can only cause local paralysis.

Ultimately, naval warfare in level 3 mobile cities is a battleground dominated by fleets.

Moreover, crafting it requires 50 units of level 3 Thunder Ore, which Li Ye felt was not worth it.

If nothing unexpected happens, this design drawing will probably just end up gathering dust in the warehouse.

Or they could sell them to earn some crystals to supplement their household income.

The Starship eventually returned safely to the basin area.

The Peacemaker and the Iron Whale were already there.

Upon learning that the level 4 item that had dropped was actually rocket blueprints, Zhou Xing and Fang Yong became immediately excited.
