1027 The Beginning
Qiu Yaokang looked at the sky outside and said, “Due to the limitation of the experintal equipnt, it will take ti to extract and mix. If we want to get a particular oil concentration, we’ll probably have to wait until daybreak tomorrow.”
Daybreak?
Fang Heng could not help but take a look at the ga ti.
It was already half past three in the morning.
The ti had dragged on for a bit too long. As for Wei Tao…
Fang Heng and Mo Jiawei looked at each other.
Who cares!
He could make up for the extra 10 hours if he completed the mission.
“Yes, the extraction work can be handed over to the zombies, and I’ll complete the refinent work.”
Qiu Yaokang nodded and continued, “There’s another thing I’m more concerned about.”
Mo Jiawei ca over curiously and asked, “What? Did you find sothing else?”
“My research on the pupae has found that it takes at least a month for ordinary dragon mosquitoes to enter the adult stage from the pupa state. The only difference from the life forms in our world is…”
Qiu Yaokang stopped talking and led Fang Heng and the others to the experint table at the side, falling into deep thought.
On the experintal table was a dissected corpse of the dragon mosquito pupa.
“What’s wrong?”
“I’m thinking about how to explain scientific discovery in a way you can understand.”
Mo Jiawei was silent for a mont.
“Co on, say it.”
“Well, let’s put it less appropriately. According to the law of energy conservation, the dragon mosquitoes’ hatching process requires energy. According to your description, the current dragon mosquito community can’t possibly have such mighty power to hatch so many offspring.”
Mo Jiawei and Fang Heng exchanged glances.
This was indeed strange.
“During the testing process, I found that the liquid outside the body of the dragon mosquito pupa contained a trace of energy. I suspect that there is sothing wrong with the lake water.” Qiu Yaokang touched his chin and said, “It’s very likely that the lake water originally contained a high concentration of energy. However, after leaving the lake, the energy in the liquid quickly disappeared.”
“I see. Alright, I’ll check the water carefully the next ti.”
Fang Heng made a ntal note and decided to investigate the lake water later.
…
The sun was shining on the lake at dawn the next day in the Cesar forest.
A gentle breeze blew, and the layers of white cocoons on the water’s surface swayed with the wind.
In the short thicket not far from the lake, Mo Jiawei pushed aside the branch beside him and whispered, “It’s coming! The round trip will take about 20 minutes.”
“Alright.”
Fang Heng was also observing the water in the distance with his telescope.
The lake’s surface was huge and covered with white cocoons.
The leader of the dragon mosquitos patrolled the surface of the lake without rest or sleep. It would appear once every 20 minutes.
They tried not to attract the attention of the leader.
Fang Heng waited patiently. When the patrol ti of the dragon mosquito leader was over, he imdiately controlled the fusion Tyrant form and began the action.
“Let’s go!”
The fusion Tyrant form that was not far away imdiately started to move, dragging the heavy cart behind him toward the lake.
Fang Heng spent most of the night controlling his zombie clone to extract liquid components from the leaves of the dragon-spine fir tree.
The zombies were using the wooden utensils and tools they had just made to do the delicate work of extracting.
Fortunately, Fang Heng had ager requirents for the performance of the extracted solution.
It was acceptable as long as it could be used.
Ultimately, the zombie clones took away the barrel of mixed kerosene that Qiu Yaokang had successfully made.
It filled up a total of 18 large carts!
The fusion Tyrant form used the vines growing from its body to pull the cart forward.
Far away, many dragon mosquitos on the lake’s surface had discovered the fusion Tyrant form.
They recognized the guy who had stolen their pupae!
The enemies’ eyes turned red when they saw the scene.
Imdiately, a swarm of densely packed dragon mosquitoes rushed toward the fusion Tyrant form.
The dozen or so fusion Tyrant forms were already used to it, and they did not even bat an eye when they saw the swarm of dragon mosquitoes.
They continued dragging the cart behind them slowly.
Buzz, buzz, buzz, buzz…
The dragon mosquito swarm imdiately attacked!
The long-range needle attacks swept over in a concentrated wave.
Countless needles pierced into the bodies of the fusion Tyrant forms.
There was no reaction. On the contrary, filled with needles, the fusion Tyrant forms looked more intimidating.
The dragon mosquitos also rushed up and surrounded them in a dense circle. They began to use their needles to peck and attack.
It was still ineffective!
They felt like they were pecking at a rotten turtle shell!
No matter how hard they tried, they could not stop the fusion Tyrant forms from advancing.
The densely-packed dragon mosquitoes began to turn around and tried attacking the cart behind the fusion Tyrant forms.
Unexpectedly, Fang Heng was well prepared.
Behind them, many vine-like zombies wrapped their vines around the boxes of mixed kerosene, covering them with their bodies and protecting the carts with their lives!
The fusion Tyrant forms had long been accustod to the attacks of the dragon mosquito swarm, and they relied on their undying bodies to resist the damage!
Taking the attack head-on, they dragged their heavy bodies forward and slowly approached the lake.
Mo Jiawei was anxious as he counted the ti. He could not help but urge them in his heart, “Hurry, hurry up. Just a little faster…”
The dragon mosquitos noticed the fusion Tyrant forms moving toward the lake again. They knew they were up to no good and would attack the pupae, so they shot them crazily!
More dragon mosquitoes sward up, almost blocking their vision.
The fusion Tyrant forms crashed into them until they reached the lakeside, and they threw the cart full of oil barrels into the lake!
Then, they turned around and left.
What were they doing?
The dragon mosquitos were slightly afraid of water. They were at a loss for a mont.
A mont later, the zombies attached to the cart with vine entanglent skills also entered the lake.
A small portion of the dragon mosquitoes chased after the fusion Tyrant forms and continued to attack. The remaining dragon mosquitoes were like headless flies, wandering around the lake’s surface, constantly making buzzing sounds.
Everything seed to have returned to normal.
Gurgle…
Only the gurgling sounds of water and oil were heard.
The special kerosene floated to the lake’s surface after it leaked out of the broken box.
After more than ten minutes during which the fusion Tyrant forms made two transportation trips, one could notice that a layer of special kerosene had gushed out of the lake.
The oil was spreading rapidly around the lake!
“It’s almost ti. The leader of the dragon mosquitos will be back soon.”
Mo Jiawei rubbed his hands and took a deep breath. He felt as excited and nervous as he was when he blew up a manure pit as a child.
“Fang Heng, how is it? Are you starting?”
“Yes, let’s start.”
Fang Heng looked excited and nodded his head. He called a licker over.
Creak creak creak…
Fang Heng lit a match and threw it at the licker beside him.
Swish!
Whoosh!
The licker’s body was covered in kerosene, and the mont it ca into contact with the fla, its entire body was instantly surrounded by intense flas.
“Charge!”
