311: Chapter 311 Intelligent Building Module
The next day.
Sunlight poured through the floor-to-ceiling windows into the study, casting golden spots on the floor.
Lin Yuan sat at his desk, his fingers tapping gently on the tabletop, a thoughtful glint in his eyes.
On the virtual screen in front of him, the details of the newly unlocked supplies were displayed.
【Intelligent Construction Module】
【Generation Speed: 1 per second】
【Functional Description: Can automatically assemble into various buildings, including residences, factories, defensive facilities, energy stations, etc. The module uses nanotechnology, can be freely combined according to needs, and has an extremely fast construction speed.】
【Special Attribute: The module has a self-repairing function and can automatically recover after being damaged. Once a building is completed, it comes with a basic energy system and water circulation system.】
Lin Yuan looked at this information, the corners of his mouth curling up slightly.
One module per second.
Sixty per minute.
Three thousand six hundred per hour.
One day... eighty-six thousand four hundred!
What kind of concept was this?
If produced at full capacity, he could build a modern super city within a few days!
"This supply..."
Lin Yuan took a deep breath, a sharp light flashing in his eyes.
"It's simply heaven-defying!"
He stood up, walked to the window, and looked at the base outside.
Although the base had taken shape, it was ultimately just a villa area covering two thousand square meters.
The residential area was crowded, the industrial area was crude, and the defensive facilities were stretched thin.
With the increase in population, various problems were becoming more frequent.
But now...
With the Intelligent Construction Module, all of this would change!
"It's time... to expand."
Lin Yuan muttered to himself, his eyes flashing with ambition.
...
Half an hour later.
In the base's conference room, the goddesses of the core management team were gathered.
Ye Qingxue, Ye Qingyue, Chu Yanran, Su Yuyan, Qin Yuwei...
And Lan Xin, who had just joined.
She sat in the corner, feeling a bit uneasy.
After all, she had only just become Lin Yuan's woman and was not yet familiar with everything here.
"Is everyone here?"
Lin Yuan walked into the conference room, his gaze sweeping over everyone present.
"I've gathered you all here today to announce something important."
The women's gazes turned to him in unison, full of curiosity.
Lin Yuan didn't beat around the bush; he directly took a fist-sized silver cube from his space ring and placed it on the conference table.
"This is the new supply I've obtained—the Intelligent Construction Module."
Lin Yuan's voice was calm, but it carried an irrepressible excitement.
"It can automatically assemble into various buildings, and... I can obtain it continuously."
The conference room went silent instantly.
Everyone widened their eyes, looking at the silver cube on the table in disbelief.
"Continuously?"
Ye Qingyue was the first to react, her voice trembling slightly.
"Brother Lin Yuan, do you mean... you have a lot of these?"
"Not just a lot."
Lin Yuan's mouth curled up slightly.
"Theoretically, I can have as many as I want. It's not impossible to build a super city in a few days."
"Holy crap!"
Ji Wushuang couldn't help but curse.
"Isn't that too perverted?!"
"Perverted?"
Lin Yuan raised an eyebrow at her.
"Are you complimenting me?"
"I..."
Ji Wushuang was choked up.
She wanted to say no, but thinking about it carefully, it seemed like she was complimenting him?
"Ahem."
Su Yuyan coughed lightly, breaking the awkward atmosphere.
"Lin Yuan, what do you plan to do?"
"Expand."
Lin Yuan walked to the center of the conference room and waved his hand to bring up a huge map.
The map showed the terrain surrounding the base.
"I plan to select an area around the base to build a real super Shelter."
He circled an area on the map with his finger.
"Here, ten square kilometers."
"Ten square kilometers?!"
The women gasped.
You have to know, the current base was only two thousand square meters.
Ten square kilometers, how much was that?
Ten million square meters!
Five thousand times the current base!
"Brother Lin Yuan, you aren't joking, are you?"
Ye Qingyue widened her eyes.
"Ten square kilometers, how long would that take to build?"
"Three days."
Lin Yuan said indifferently.
"What?!"
The women were shocked again.
"Build ten square kilometers in three days? How is that possible?!"
"What's impossible about it?"
Lin Yuan smiled.
"My plan is: residential area, industrial area, agricultural area, military area, commercial area, the five major functional zones. Each zone will only have core facilities built, and the remaining space will be left for development."
"Three days is enough to set up the framework."
"As for how exactly it will be done..."
He looked at the women, his mouth curling up.
"You just need to know that I can do it."
The women were silent.
They looked at Lin Yuan, their eyes full of shock.
This man...
His ambition was even greater than they had imagined!
"Any other questions?"
Lin Yuan looked around.
"If not, let's start dividing the work."
"Qingxue, you are responsible for the planning of the residential area."
"Yanran, you are responsible for logistics support."
"Yuyan, you are responsible for the operation of the commercial area."
"Yuwei, you are responsible for intelligence and communication systems."
"Wushuang..."
Lin Yuan looked at Ji Wushuang, the corners of his mouth curling up slightly.
"You continue to stoke the boiler."
Ji Wushuang: "..."
"I protest!"
She stood up abruptly, looking angry.
"Why do they all have proper jobs, but I have to go stoke the boiler?!"
"Because you're good at it."
Lin Yuan said solemnly.
"The pot of water you boiled last time, the temperature was just right, and it was especially comfortable for my foot soak."
Ji Wushuang: "..."
She felt insulted.
But she couldn't find any words to refute him.
"Alright, alright, I'm joking."
Lin Yuan waved his hand.
"You are responsible for the defense deployment of the military area. After all, you are one of the strongest fighters here, and this job is cut out for you."
Ji Wushuang's expression softened slightly.
"That's more like it."
She snorted and sat back down.
But the corners of her mouth curled up slightly, clearly very satisfied with this arrangement.
"What about me?"
Lan Xin raised her hand cautiously.
"I... what can I do?"
Lin Yuan looked at her, a flash of tenderness in his eyes.
"You..."
He thought for a moment.
"You are responsible for the planning of the water system. After all, you are from the Merfolk Clan, and you understand water better than any of us."
Lan Xin's eyes lit up.
"Really?"
"Of course."
Lin Yuan nodded.
"Moreover, in the future, the base may build artificial lakes and water facilities, and these will all need you to oversee them."
Lan Xin was so excited that her face turned red.
She didn't expect that she could also contribute to the base!
"I... I will definitely work hard!"
She nodded vigorously, her eyes full of determination.
Lin Yuan smiled and then looked at everyone.
"Alright, that's it for the division of labor. I will communicate the specific details with you individually."
"Now, meeting adjourned."
The women stood up one after another and left the conference room in twos and threes.
But their eyes were all sparkling with excitement.
A ten-square-kilometer super base!
This was simply a miracle in the Apocalypse!
And the person who created this miracle was their man!
...
After the meeting, Lin Yuan went to the backyard of the base alone to start testing the newly unlocked supplies.
He closed his eyes and moved his mind.
【Ding! Generated Intelligent Construction Module x 1】
A fist-sized silver cube appeared in his hand out of thin air.
The surface of the cube was as smooth as a mirror, reflecting the unique metallic luster under the sunlight.
"Is this the Intelligent Construction Module?"
Lin Yuan carefully examined the cube in his hand.
Just then, the cube suddenly emitted a faint light.
Then, it began to deform automatically!
The silver surface seemed to come alive, constantly extending, folding, and recombining...
A few seconds later, a standard building brick appeared in Lin Yuan's hand.
"Interesting."
A flash of amazement crossed Lin Yuan's eyes.
He placed the brick on the ground and continued to generate modules.
One, two, three...
Ten, twenty, thirty...
Each module would automatically deform into a brick and then, as if it had a life of its own, automatically combine with other bricks.
Just one minute.
A one-meter-high wall appeared in front of Lin Yuan!
"This efficiency..."
Lin Yuan gasped.
"It's simply terrifying!"
He continued to generate modules while planning the structure of the building in his mind.
Miraculously, those modules seemed to be able to sense his thoughts and automatically assemble according to his wishes.
Five minutes later.
A small house rose from the ground!
Although the house was simple, it had everything—walls, roof, doors, and windows, all complete.
"Too strong..."
Lin Yuan looked at the house in front of him, and a surge of uncontrollable excitement welled up in his heart.
With this supply, he could really build a city in the Apocalypse!
No, not just a city...
He could build an empire!
"Brother Lin Yuan!"
Ye Qingyue's voice came from afar.
Lin Yuan turned back and saw Ye Qingyue running over, bouncing along.
"What are you doing?"
She looked curiously at the small house behind Lin Yuan.
"Testing new supplies."
Lin Yuan smiled.
"How is it, impressive, right?"
"Wow!"
Ye Qingyue widened her eyes and circled the small house.
"Did you build this just now? It only took a few minutes?"
"Five minutes."
Lin Yuan nodded.
"My God!"
Ye Qingyue exclaimed.
"Brother Lin Yuan, you are simply... simply..."
She thought for a long time, then her eyes suddenly lit up.
"You are simply the Apocalyptic version of Lu Ban!"
Lin Yuan: "..."
Lu Ban?
Why did he feel that this comparison was a bit strange?
"Right, right!"
Ye Qingyue suddenly remembered something and leaned into Lin Yuan's ear, lowering her voice.
"Brother Lin Yuan, I heard that this supply was unlocked by Sister Xiaoyu?"
"Mm."
Lin Yuan nodded.
"Then last night..."
Ye Qingyue blinked her eyes, full of gossip.
"What exactly did you do?"
Lin Yuan looked at her curious baby-like appearance, and the corners of his mouth twitched slightly.
"What do you think?"
"I think..."
Ye Qingyue tilted her head and thought, then clapped her hands.
"You must have been playing mahjong in the water!"
Lin Yuan: "..."
Playing mahjong?
Was this girl's train of thought a bit strange?
"Right, right?"
Ye Qingyue became more excited as she spoke.
"I just said, Sister Xiaoyu is a mermaid, she must be very good at playing mahjong in the water! Brother Lin Yuan, did you lose? That's why you unlocked new supplies?"
Lin Yuan was silent.
He suddenly felt that it was better not to explain some things.
"Yes, I lost."
He said solemnly.
"I lost miserably."
"Hahaha!"
Ye Qingyue laughed uncontrollably.
"Brother Lin Yuan, you have days like this too! Next time I want to go too! My mahjong skills are very good!"
Lin Yuan looked at her innocent and lively appearance and shook his head helplessly.
Forget it, let her keep this innocence.
"Alright, stop messing around."
He reached out and rubbed Ye Qingyue's head.
"Go and call Qingxue for me, I have something to discuss with her."
"Okay!"
Ye Qingyue ran away, bouncing.
Lin Yuan watched her back, the corners of his mouth curling up slightly.
Then, he turned to look into the distance.
There was the location of the super base he had planned.
"Ten square kilometers..."
He muttered to himself, his eyes flashing with ambition.
"This is just the beginning."
"After the base is built, I want everyone to know—"
"In this Apocalypse, Lin Yuan is the true King!"
...
Meanwhile.
On the other side of the base, Lan Xin was standing by the pool, staring at the water in a daze.
In her mind, the scene from the meeting just now kept replaying.
Lin Yuan asked her to be responsible for the planning of the water system...
This was the first time she had been entrusted with such an important task.
"I must do it well..."
Lan Xin clenched her fists, her eyes full of determination.
"I can't let Lin Yuan down!"
Just then, a voice came from behind.
"Yo, what is little sister Xiaoyu daydreaming about?"
Lan Xin turned back and saw Ji Wushuang leaning on the railing, looking at her with a teasing expression.
"I... I was thinking about work."
Lan Xin was a little nervous.
"Work?"
Ji Wushuang raised an eyebrow.
"You mean the water system planning?"
"Mm."
Lan Xin nodded.
"I want to do it well, but... I don't know much about things on land."
Ji Wushuang looked at her and was silent for a moment.
Then, she sighed and walked to Lan Xin's side.
"Don't be too nervous."
Her tone became a little softer.
"Since Lin Yuan gave this task to you, it means he believes you can do it well."
"Moreover..."
She looked into the distance, the corners of her mouth curling up slightly.
"You are not alone. We will all help you."
Lan Xin was stunned.
She didn't expect that this fierce-looking woman would say such things.
"Th... thank you."
Her voice was a little choked.
"What are you thanking me for?"
Ji Wushuang curled her lips.
"We are all Lin Yuan's women, isn't it natural to help each other?"
"However..."
She suddenly leaned closer to Lan Xin and lowered her voice.
"There is one thing I want to remind you."
"Wh... what is it?"
Lan Xin asked nervously.
"Braised pork."
Ji Wushuang said word by word.
"It's mine."
"No one is allowed to snatch it."
"Understand?"
Lan Xin: "..."
She suddenly felt that this woman didn't seem as scary as she imagined.
Just...
The obsession with braised pork seemed a bit over the top?
"Und... understood."
Lan Xin nodded.
"Very good."
Ji Wushuang smiled with satisfaction, then turned and left.
"Welcome to our big family, little sister Xiaoyu."
"If you don't understand anything in the future, just ask me, your sister."
"As long as it's not about braised pork."
Lan Xin watched her departing back, the corners of her mouth curling up slightly.
This "big family"...
Although it was a bit strange.
But it seemed... quite warm.
In the distance, the sun was setting, dyeing the entire base gold.
A new era was about to begin.
And Lin Yuan and his goddesses would build an unprecedented miracle on this ruin of the Apocalypse!
