Survival on the Star Sea: Starting from a small broken ship and becoming stronger

At this time, the outside temperature has dropped to -13°C.

Back in the safe house, I watched Ruolan working in front of the [Food Processing Workshop].

He quickly unloaded all the goods.

Hearing the sound of Zhao Feng unloading goods, Ruolan looked back at him and then focused on the operation in front of her.

At the same time, she said loudly: "Sit there and wait for a while, the food will be ready soon. I've made some new ones, please try them."

"Yes!" In response, Zhao Feng walked to the dining table and waited quietly.

Not long after, Ruolan brought over three dishes and one soup on a wooden dinner plate.

Looking at the sumptuous dishes, which were not much worse than the previous meal, he couldn't help but swallow.

Seeing this, Ruolan chuckled, "Greedy~" and picked up a tempura-shaped fried shrimp with chopsticks and brought it to Zhao Feng's mouth.

After two bites, he was surprised by the texture and taste.

Fresh, elastic, smooth and fragrant!

He glanced at the "vending machine" next to the [Geothermal Power Station] and then looked at the dishes on the table in front of him.

Zhao Feng couldn't help but sigh in his heart.

‘This is pure technology and ruthless work! ’

After eating and resting for a while, he suddenly felt a little tight in his chest and it didn't get better even if he adjusted his sitting position.

After thinking about it for a moment, he reacted.

‘Lack of oxygen! ’

The snow was so heavy that the ventilation holes had long been blocked. Even if he cleared the door when he came in, the snow would quickly block the door again.

After patting his forehead, Zhao Feng took the equipment and some resources and returned to the surface to start cleaning up.

‘If you want to completely solve this problem, just cleaning it up won’t do it, so you have to add something. . . ’

I am thinking about things in my mind and handling the work at hand in an orderly manner.

First, clear away all the snow at the door. It is not easy to clean these things with a drill, and soon the area around the door will be clean.

Then, in order to solve the problem of hypoxia caused by heavy snow blocking the door, he decided to build a small building over the entrance as he did at the beginning.

However, because the underground entrance was too large, the house built this time had to be larger.

A two-story building similar to a large garage quickly went up.

In order to prevent the ceiling from being crushed, this time he chose to use iron plates as the roof and main beams, while the walls were still made of wooden boards.

The outer courtyard wall is still a wooden fence that surrounds the hut.

In this way, the real entrance to the base can be hidden, and secondly, it can block the devastation of such blizzard-like weather.

Most importantly, with the building outside acting as a "lid", the two of them would not be suffocated to death due to heavy snow blocking the door.

The renovation was quickly completed and the ventilation problem in the main house was solved.

As for the ventilation problem in the mine. . .

The ventilation holes inside are probably out of use, and there is actually no need for him to mine in the last 3-5 days.

The resources collected are enough for him to smelt for a long time, which can fully support the completion of the robot factory.

Once the robot factory is built, there will be no need for him to mine anymore.

After opening the door and breathing for a while, the feeling of chest tightness disappeared after returning to the basement.

Nodding with satisfaction, Zhao Feng continued with the next step of work, expansion.

He wants to expand new space to build robot factories and other buildings.

Slightly adjust the output power of the drilling laser and start digging down toward the west wall.

With the start-up of the drilling laser, the expansion project was officially launched.

I have to say that drilling equipment in the interstellar era is convenient! The plasma "drill" can be constrained into any shape, including points, lines, surfaces, squares, circles, and even polygons.

With the blessing of sharp tools, it didn't take long before he excavated an arched slope 20 meters long and 6 meters in diameter.

The inclination angle is 45°. In order to make it easier to go up and down the stairs, Zhao Feng very thoughtfully dug out the stairs in the middle.

There are extremely smooth slopes on both sides, which can be used as slides to quickly transport materials and people.

At this time the overall depth of the safe house reached 15 meters.

The depth was already deep enough. In order to prevent collapse, he began to use scanning bracelets for reinforcement.

Just like the decoration of a new house, scanning the bracelet will decompose and recast 1 unit of iron.

After recasting, the iron sheet was evenly covered on the cave wall and the ground with a thickness of 10 cm.

Make the arched tunnel stronger.

On the other side, Li Ruolan, who had simply finished cleaning up, wanted to go outside and put down the trees, but as soon as she opened the "garage" door, she was hit by snow and low temperature.

She had no choice but to go to Zhao Feng to see if he needed help.

Zhao Feng, who was reinforcing the cave wall, saw Ruolan coming over. His eyes suddenly lit up and he quickly commanded:

"Ruolan, you came just in time! Come and help."

"What are you doing?" Ruolan asked a little strangely.

"Expand and strengthen our safe house. I predict that there will be a high probability of an earthquake in the future. Make preparations and have peace of mind early, otherwise our safe house will be as crude as it is now..."

After a pause, he looked around the safe house and made a "comprehensive" expression, and continued: "You came just in time, I will dig in front, and you will reinforce from behind."

"Can this be useful? The earthquake shook so hard." Ruolan was a little confused.

"Vibration does have certain hazards, but underground, the main damage caused by earthquakes to us is shear force. In order to resist the shear force, it is necessary to build a layer of curved iron plate reinforcement structure on the cave wall."

Ruolan followed Zhao Feng's fingers and looked at the curved wall.

"And I plan to wait for our alloy production to increase and cast an additional alloy layer, so that the safety will be higher."

Zhao Feng's explanation made Ruolan confused, and she nodded to show that she had no problem.

"We will start construction later. Ruolan, just cover the cave I dug with 10 centimeters of iron sheet."

"Oh...but, do we have enough resources for such a large area?" Ruolan nodded and then asked.

"It's completely enough. The whole day's digging was not in vain!"

After the explanation is completed, work continues.

When two people work together, the efficiency is very high, and the area is expanded horizontally by more than 10 times in just 2 hours.

Nearly a thousand units of iron were used, leaving only 400 units.

However, this new safe house is much more spacious than the previous one. After passing the 20-meter slope, there is the newly expanded main structure.

It was a cylindrical room with a diameter of 10 meters.

The reason why we do not continue to use the arch shape is mainly to consider the issues of compression resistance and shear resistance.

With the center of the circle as the central axis, the room is divided into two floors: upper and lower semicircles.

The length of the room reaches 100 meters, and its inner walls are entirely made of metal.

Of course, considering the insulation effect, he ordered Ruolan to lay a wooden insulation layer on the wall here.

Just as he was completing the expansion.

The system prompt message pops up again.

【Ding! Detected that you have built an underground base that meets the minimum standards! 】

【Ding! It is detected that you are number one on the killing list and meet the requirements! 】

[Reward: Unlock a new building system "base" and randomly select 3+4 base types for you. Please choose one of them as your foundation. 】

(It will be retrofitted into your existing underground building system. You will save time on laborious digging and only need to prepare enough resources.)
