Chapter 6.26 The seeds of new power, the "battle" between sulfur and iron(2/2)
But further growth is needed.
The people arranged here by Yishui all recognize the importance of the work of "re-humanizing genetic polluters".
If the fringe area of Da Yuan Island wants to become important, that is, it becomes a link that determines promotion.
Wei Keng's reply to the command area: "Comrades who accompany me on Damuan Island to regulate genetic polluters and have my recognition of their work abilities must be promoted in the organization. I don't need to arrange other manpower and material resources here."
Yes, I need a policy here!"

On the morning of March 25, in front of the pier, Wang Xiaolong left, following a new batch of genetic modulators.
He looked back to the east and couldn't help but hum the song on Taiyuan Island: "Our troops are facing the sun."
As he hummed, the successful gene regulators on the ship looked at him for a few seconds and then started singing along, singing the sound together.
Several kilometers away, Wei Keng, who was operating in front of the dock, felt the singing coming from the distant ship through the life frequency band. He was silent for a while.
Here, many Wei Keng gathered idle individuals, looking at the sky and silently chanting: "Yes, we are facing the sun."
…
Two months after Wang Xiaolong left, Wei Keng launched the operation on the Eastern Peninsula on Damuan Island.
After gradually completing ecological replacement in the mountains, it is time to launch an attack on the sulfur-iron basalt in the Pacific Ocean.
During the period when the two parties were in contact with each other, while Mr. Wei was busy with his own work, he discovered that the sulfur-iron basalt was not idle either and began to evolve terrestrial species.

The thickness of the crust of the oceanic plate is thinner than that of the land plate, and energy usually bursts out in the cracks. This energy has been utilized by humans through geothermal power stations, but in the past, few species have effectively utilized it in the ecological world.
The scaly-horned gastropod snail, before the advent of Pandora's field, was a creature in the fringe area, and its environment was very quiet.
In human society, after a region is cut off from external information exchange, a single environment will lead to a single thought.
The same is true for species. A single environment will cause the evolution of species to fall into silence. The deep sea was such an environment in the past. All species that retreated to the deep sea will die out after raising species diversity to the world and condensing into a single middle finger.
But Pandora Field changed all this. Information about the gene activity of external organisms was transmitted to the deep sea, giving the dead deep sea species the potential for diversity.
This originally endangered species quickly evolved its mollusc family towards the metal punk mode after genetically intermingling with other species in its mollusk family.
This kind of iron-shelled snail soon began to increase in size and began to undergo structural transformation. Functional cavities appeared in the metal shell, and some of the cavities began to be turned into batteries, allowing it to jet and maneuver after accumulating energy on the seabed.
But now after landing on land, Wei Keng discovered that it had evolved something quite interesting.
They may be the only creatures that have evolved a wheel structure. The tentacles protrude from a wheel-shaped horny shell. The meat inside the wheel and the wheel axle are essentially separated! The wheel meat tissue makes the wheel and axle work together through the hydraulic effect of inhalation and spitting out.
A driving force appears between them, causing the wheel to rotate on its axis.
Wei Keng dissected the development process and found that the wheel and shaft were stuck together in the early stages of development, but suddenly broke apart after maturity, forming a tissue that communicates with each other's body fluids.
Wei Keng's record: "Although the wheels and axles are not supported by neural links, they rely on electrical frequency signals to control the speed of the wheel rotation. As well as the temperature and pH of the liquid secreted by the wheel, the body tissue can feel the fatigue of the wheel."
As for the suspension, it is a hydraulic suspension of muscles and body fluids. Although there are bumps during the ride, it can still charge up the steep slope.

Speaking of which, Mr. Wei no longer wants to kill this thing, and is considering getting a branch, suppressing the synthesis of its key proteins, and allowing it to make cattle and horses.
Of course, I made calculations later and found that this type of evolution is still not as efficient as the bearing gears in my own machinery factory, so I gave up.
The sulfur-iron basalt that just came up from the sea seems to be conscious.
When Wei Keng found himself paving the road, this thing was also paving the road. To be precise, it was piling up calcium matter on the flat ground.
Viewed from a high altitude, these stacked calcium objects look like the white traces left behind by snails crawling.
After the sulfur-iron basalt community landed in the mountains, the radioactive genes changed a large number of the vegetation in the area into purple trees. Good guy, the test found that this was not using chlorophyll for photosynthesis at all!

Now Mr. Wei's motive for attacking the Eastern Peninsula is not the threat of sulfur-iron basalt.
But when the unified logging area was providing technical assistance to the coastal areas, there was a shortage of chemical raw materials. Among the three acids and two alkali, the production of sulfuric acid requires natural sulfur or pyrite.
This sulfur-iron basalt community crawling out of the ocean trench has created an ecological system on the Eastern Peninsula. It is very valuable for mining after investigation.
So! The spring of 157 came, and Master Wei's military campaign began.
Dozens of large trucks drove into the ecological zone of sulfur-iron basalt. After the bombing, dozens of biological accumulation sites were specially found for transportation. After loading, they were transported back to the transportation station.
It is then shipped to the chemical plant in Qiantang Bay for refining.
Chapter completed!
