Boom!
Accompanied by a deafening sound, a 30-meter-thick pillar of water soared into the sky, drawing an arc across the blue sky as it flew into the distance...
[Holy crap!]
[Holy crap!]
[Holy crap …]
[How can it shoot so far?]
[This is unscientific …]
[This muzzle is really amazing.
Not only can it spray sand, but it can also spray water. It has almost unlimited ammunition.]
[Everyone, run!
Newton's coffin can't hold on any longer!]
[Why isn't it drained into the water?]
[The recoil is too strong. It should be.]
[There must be a special method. Otherwise, it wouldn't have been able to shoot so far.]
[Indecisive. Quantum mechanics.]
[Have you heard of a water technique that descends from the sky?]
[I've heard of it. It's the Great Waterfall Technique.]
As the ship pumped and discharged, it took less than an hour for the 40 square kilometers of seawater to be completely drained.
Such efficiency caused the worldview of all the professionals sitting in front of their screens to collapse.
The power of industry would always continue to impact humanity's inherent understanding …
…
Beijing, inside the special case team's conference room:
Many satellite images were pasted on the two secondary screens on the right side of the main screen.
"Unbelievable …"
The middle-aged team leader felt stifled as he looked at the calculation report in his hands.
A 30-meter-wide water pillar shot 20 kilometers away!
This terrifying thrust was unimaginable. As a result, even after two minutes had passed, the technical department was still calculating and verifying the results.
"Team Leader, under this kind of impact, even if the ship's 45-degree angle can reduce the recoil as much as possible, with its mass, it should still have sunk to the bottom of the sea.
Hence, our analysis shows that it used a method unknown to us at the moment. "
"Hmm …"
The middle-aged team leader did not comment. Putting down the document, he turned to look at Xiao Li and asked, "How much longer until our ship arrives?"
"I don't know," Xiao Li said awkwardly. "Our superiors ordered us to wait for orders.
The ship's speed, arrival time, and sailing route are all confidential.
Although our team has high authority, we are not a department. "
"I understand."
The middle-aged team leader nodded and sighed. "I'm just afraid that 'other' ships will come as well. That will be troublesome …"
In the conference room, after this sentence, there was a moment of silence …
…
"Excellent. The seawater and most of the silt have been emptied. Now, we can start to fill the island."
On the deck of the island-building ship, Chen Yu faced the camera and pointed at the deep pit in the cofferdam. He then loudly said, "According to the instructions, the island-building ship's reamer will shatter the seabed's rock layer and shrink the rock and soil into 0.35mm of medium-coarse sand before pouring it into the cofferdam.
Moreover, this sand is mixed with a special colloid, which is extremely hard after solidification. "
Along with Chen Yu's explanation, the ship's hull started moving slowly. The rear cannon then aimed at the cofferdam and fired a 30-meter-wide sand pillar!
"Boom, boom, boom …"
When the sand and gravel collided with the seabed, a dull and violent sound erupted. The sound was so loud that Chen Yu had no choice but to return to the cabin.
Time passed minute by minute.
The hull of the ship circled around the island, going further and further away, "absorbing" the rocks and soil at the bottom of the sea to its heart's content, filling the forty square kilometers of cofferdam.
Two thousand years ago, the famous Roman philosopher Cicero said, "He who controls the sea controls the world."
And the foundation of controlling the ocean was controlling the islands.
Especially such a large island in a special location.
Civilian use could be profitable.
For military use, it could be used in depth.
Its value was immeasurable...
The deafening filling lasted for over an hour.
At this time, the sun in the sky had also risen to its highest point.
Walking out of the cabin, Chen Yu raised his head and looked at the sky. Straightening his mask, he said, "The cannons have stopped blasting sand.
It seems the second step of filling the island has been completed. Next up is the third step, the foundation treatment. "
[This island is being built even faster than a toilet.]
[I wonder how many governments are watching this place right now.]
[The UP is an alien. I was sure of it the moment I saw the 404 Heat Ray Gun.]
[America's aliens want to destroy the world, America's aliens want to fall in love, and our aliens want to integrate into the people. Interesting...]
[I, on the other hand, feel that the host is a human from the future. I really want to see his face!
Then, I can go to his house and worship him.]
[Impossible. Do you think such an amazing existence will be discovered so easily?]
[Can't the governments discover it?]
[I'm dying of laughter. Aren't we underestimating the UP too much?]
[Why are you so serious about watching a livestream?
There are actually fools who believe this is real?
Isn't it all special effects?]
[Fool!]
[Idiot + 1!]
[Those in the livestream rooms who still don't believe me, wait until this island is completed and watch the news. I'll slap your fat faces until they're swollen.]
[The news will definitely be blocked. Don't even think about it.]
Amidst the chaotic and noisy bullet comments, the island-building ship had already returned to the island's side and started the third step of foundation treatment.
Holding onto the railing, Chen Yu pointed at the island and loudly explained, "Although the sand has been filtered and processed by the ship's hull, the water content is still quite high.
Hence, the island-building ship is using a new generation of 'deep well dewatering combined with surcharge preloading' technology for the foundation treatment step.
"This technology involves drilling a special drainage pipe with holes on its outer wall into the sand, causing water to overflow from the pipe under the gravity of the sand. The water will then be pumped out of the island through the drainage well, causing the sand to tighten and give full play to the fixed role of the colloid inside the sand..."
As soon as Chen Yu finished speaking, a mechanical door on the right side of the island-building ship opened. Tens of thousands of miniature aircraft then flew out of the door and landed on the island's sand in an orderly fashion. They then inserted their folded, sharp tubes into the sand.
The scene was spectacular and magnificent...
[So many little bees.]
[I feel like I'm watching a realistic sci-fi blockbuster.]
[UP, you're awesome!
I want to give birth to your children!]
[UP, you're awesome!
I want to give birth to monkeys!]
[UP, you're awesome!
I want to give birth to gorillas!]
[UP, you're awesome!
I want to give birth to potatoes!]
【？？？】
[I'm on Qingdao. I've already rowed my boat over there. Everyone, give me your blessings.]
[Nonsense!
All of Qingdao's ports are under martial law!
Don't ask me how I know.]
[The same goes for Dalian.]
[The same goes for Bingcheng.]
[The same goes for Chang'an.]
[The same goes for Inner Mongolia...]
Shortly after the aircraft inserted itself into the sand, tens of thousands of streams of water overflowed from the sand under the suction of a special small motor. The water quickly filled the cofferdam.
On the other side, the island-building ship extended its suction pipe once more and emptied the seawater inside.
"The island's general construction has been completed by now. Next up is the final step of the island's construction, the construction of the revetment.
This step is very fast. I believe it won't be long before everyone can witness the island officially taking shape. "
"Buzz buzz buzz …"
After completing the task, the tens of thousands of aircraft lined up neatly and flew back to the mechanical door to undergo automatic maintenance and recharging.
He couldn't help but admit that the combination of industry and artificial intelligence was the pinnacle of productivity!
"To build the revetment, we'll need to hollow out the silt on the outside of the cylindrical cofferdam.
Afterward, we'll need to inject several meters of gravel, coarse sand, and finally rock. After that, we'll need to use an oscillator to start, press down, and vibrate the cofferdam to solidify... "
Before Chen Yu could finish speaking, he suddenly froze.
"Uh..."
Reaching his hand into his mask, Chen Yu rubbed his eyes and looked into the distance, his heart thumping wildly.
In the distance, on the curved surface of the sea, three warships were slowly approaching …
