"Sims, very good, you finally succeeded! Very good!"

Sims scratched his head: "I know I couldn't do more for everyone, but now my prosthetic body is much better than before, and I can only take on more tasks."

Nord sighed: "Hey, it's not a big deal. We had a mine in the bow of our ship and a big hole in which water was blown up.

If an ordinary technician takes a lot of time to repair it, the speed of the ark will slow down.

But we are now threatened by our enemies, and time and speed are too precious."

"Leave it to me!"

Sims' eyes glowed and then walked towards the bow.

His octopus prosthesis was a bit like a spider when walking, grabbing the floor and the wall in a steady manner and moving forward quickly.

The appearance of Sims made many Ark crew members jump, and Nord had to issue a full-staff notice to let them know that Sims used the latest mechanical prosthesis.

Braving the storm and extremely bumpy waves, Sims was like a character from a myth, using his prosthetic mechanical limbs to steadily grasp the bow of the ship, and then blocked the break of the bow with his own hands.

The crew of the other two arks saw this scene, and the good news of getting valuable supplies today, finally revitalized the exhausted fleet.

In order to avoid bad weather, the Ark often needs to deviate from the established route. Nearly a hundred kilometers away, the Ark fleet chasing the Nord fleet maintained a loose formation and shuttled through the wind and waves.

There are four arks in the wind and waves. Except for one with a displacement of tens of thousands of tons, the other four have different displacements. The largest one is only more than 4,000 tons, and the smallest one is only more than 1,000 tons.

At this time, there was an ark submarine with a displacement of nearly 1,000 tons underwater, but the diving depth of this ark submarine was only a few dozen meters, and it still could not escape the influence of bad weather, and it was even more severely tempted because of its small displacement.

Although compared with the total tonnage, this fleet may not be larger than the Nord fleet.

But these five arks are specially transformed according to the ideas of warships. On the one hand, they have more weapons and equipment, and on the other hand, they carry far fewer people than ordinary arks that want to save people.

The total number of crew members of the five combat arks is only more than 3,000. Compared with the materials that can be carried and the personnel management problems that need to be solved are a world of difference.

At this time, the atmosphere of the fleet headquarters was dull and the smell of cigarettes and food was floating everywhere.

Unlike the order in the Nord fleet or Lu Yu fleet, which is as unrestrained as regular troops, the interior of this fleet is somewhat like a pirate.

Their internal style is exactly the same as the pirates in films and TV series such as Pirates of the Caribbean. In addition to their poor discipline, everyone's dress has unique characteristics, with various one-eyed dragons and one ear emerging one after another, just as the pirates of the Caribbean pirates collectively traveling to modern warships.

Even though the Ark warships were swaying in the bad weather, these guys actually started to eat hot pot in the command cabin.

Thanks to the deep enough pot used, the hot hot pot soup base is shaking and almost approaching the edge of the pot every time.

A fierce bald man with a tattoo picked up a chopstick and pepper and put it into his mouth. His eyes were red with pleasure, and then he said, "Grandma! These guys are lucky. If it weren't for this ghost weather, we would have seen them with our own eyes!

I want to tell you that now we should have a few missiles to scare them!"

"Are you stupid?" The bearded pirate on the side kicked the bald man with his prosthetic leg: "We not only want to defeat them, but also to capture them! We are weak in the pirate group. If we continue to stay near the equator and fight to death, we might all become cannon fodder now.

Since we finally received the task and ran out, we not only have to think about fighting, but also have to work back to our old business and constantly plunder to strengthen ourselves."

"Marty is right. This fleet is not a good man, and their commander Nord is even more cruel.

There was an ark with nearly 10,000 people and countless supplies. In order to escape, he dared to give up as bait.

And he rescued so many people in circles, and that consciousness alone is not simple.

Not to mention that we have taken our men so far away, in addition to us, we have also encountered many attacks, and we have also made people break through.

We rely on our firepower, we should fight, but I think our losses will not be small if we really fight.

Rather than fighting to the death, I think the benefits are the most realistic.

If you can form an alliance with others, it is actually the best. Even if it doesn’t work, you may be able to do business."

"You cowardly, although you sound timid, the truth is this.

Nowadays, big fish eat small fish, and small fish eat shrimp.

We chased to the north, and in addition to wanting to eat some shrimp, we also wanted to hide and eat our big fish?

If the opponent is prone to biting back, I think the alliance may be good.

But our brothers in the fleet are used to wandering, and they may not be able to get along with others.

I think I'll fight first, don't break the slap in the dead, see if I can get a piece of meat."

"Okay, let's just give it a try and don't fight to the death, but don't let them go. It's best to eat them. If you can't eat them, just chew a piece of meat."

"agree!"

"agree!"

There are people busy in Arnold's planting workshop at any time.

There is a greenhouse for cultivating land crops, producing everyone's favorite crops such as potatoes, corn, cabbage, and radish.

There are huge seawater culture pools that cultivate Arnold's magical algae plants. These high-yield pools can produce starch-rich products, protein-rich products, and vitamin-rich products.

There is also a special pool where the plants inside look like kelp, but they are completely different. This is the source of Ark Tobacco, the ‘sea tobacco’ cultivated by Arnold.

"Tobacco" with the growth habit of kelp is conveniently cultivated at sea and has a very good yield. In addition to supplying ark, it can be used as the basis for maritime trade.

In addition to the cultivation areas, there are processing equipment designed by Lu Yu, which transforms raw materials that were not suitable for direct consumption as finely as possible and turns into food raw materials that are not so rejected, such as flour, protein powder, vitamin blocks, etc.

At this time, Arnold was working here with Lu Yu. In order to install the new machine designed by Lu Yu, a equipment room next to it was demolished and changed to connect to the planting workshop.

What Lu Yu wants to build is a biofuel production workshop.
