Bizarre Detective Agency: Chapter 1118 Fifty-six. Eve of migration
Chapter 1118 Fifty-six. Eve of Migration
"Their larvae are protected in their nests in the Gaussian Basin." Mano translates the message released by the worms: "But they say...the larvae can come here if you want."
"thanks."
Merchant Anthony traveled to the Gauss Basin and soon brought back news of the departure of the second batch of worms.
Mateus sent people to retrieve the plan, ready to copy it again, and handed over the building of the house that did not need the help of worms to them.
And they disagreed when copying about the structure of the dungeon.
Mateus tends to remain the same: stone houses stand like weeds over vast dungeons.
Lili changed the original plan because of the worm larvae: build a dungeon composed of trapezoidal caves.
"I can understand that this will save a lot of excavation time, but why is more than half of the open space reserved?" Matthaus stared at a flat area described by Lu Li.
"Plant." Lu Li replied, "I will purify the soil and provide sun boxes. There are enough people in the Wiener Refuge to study how to make crops grow."
The Wiener Refuge has to find a way to be self-sufficient, at least not completely dependent on those old sewers that seem like friends and enemies.
"I can't believe the land dwelling business, right?" The deep joy of migration was infected by the hopeless future, and Mateus sighed: "Well, I just want to leave as many traces of the past as possible, I don't want future generations to ask Why is our house different from the painting..."
Mateus was not resolute and quickly agreed with Lu Li's plan. After all, this way they only have to dig five dungeons, and it can prevent the abundant rainwater from flooding the refuge area during the rainy season, and avoid the situation of "the core area is occupied by the powerful": remind the cave to live in the highest place, or live in the highest place, The safety of the two is similar.
The next few days will be peaceful. On the fourth day, when the second batch of worms will arrive, the overall outline of the first dungeon has been excavated.
Lu Li and Matthaus came to the dungeon.
The fluorite scattered on the top of the dungeon's rock gives a sense of space to this dark underground world, although the shimmer cannot be sprinkled on the ground, it can only glow faintly like a star.
The rough trapezoids run downwards, and the fluffy dirt in the flat areas is a reassuring tan compared to the mottled limestone that forms the main body.
The worm helped them lay the soil by the way, and then rushed to the next door to start the excavation of the second dungeon.
Soon, the second batch of worms arrived.
In addition to the seven adult worms, there is also a plump worm the size of an old sewer branch.
"That's their mother, who nurtures the larvae."
Linguist Mano translates said.
The female echinoderms are softer than worms, stretching their bodies like a pool of silt, squeezing through the excavated tunnels to the first dungeon.
Manuo took a deep breath, approached the worm mother with the plan, opened and closed her mouth but no sound came out, and told the worm mother what she needed to do in the language of a worm.
The female worm curled up, its abdomen raised, and nearly a hundred light yellow flesh worms gushed out from the tail. These little guys with long arms swarmed up the stairs, like worms that gnawed leaves and devoured hard rocks easily.
But they can't digest the rock, and the debris shoots out of the tail. Mateus selects a group of "volunteers" from the inhabitants to shovel the debris and deliver it to the female's mouth.
"voluntary" does not mean willing to contact these hideous monsters, but contact with worms will cause pollution and loss of sanity. The reward for this kind of effort is that they will become twisted believers to follow to the land of light.
The larvae do not always dig, they return to the mother worm from time to time to replenish nutrients, and then burrow out to continue digging.
With the female insects creeping down the stairs, the rows of stone houses are quickly formed, and even the doors, windows and stone tables are reserved. It only takes a craftsman's simple grinding to insert the wooden door into the door frame - there is barely enough wood to make tens of thousands of doors.
It is expected that at midnight, the first dungeon will be able to start migrating residents.
Mateus was worried that there would be an accident at the last minute, and because of his anxiety, the sores that were red and plump like fruit grew, and he even kept a twisted believer by his side so that he could ask any believer at any time.
The number of believers is still only Solena, and the number of residents infected by the evil **** is also maintained at thirty-five. the residents of the room.
The other 34 infected residents were presumably infected in this way - all of them were residents of the outer ring, and were emaciated by malnutrition and chronic starvation.
Mateus’s unease continued until the first dungeon was officially completed, and it was finally put down temporarily.
The depth is 100 meters to 150 meters, there are 2300 caves, and a vast dirt field.
He invited Lu Li to name the dungeon, but Lu Li did not agree. After thinking about it, Matteus decided not to name it. The five dungeons are only called in the order in which they were built, and their common name is Wiener Dungeon.
"You don't want them to be shaded under your glory?" The mother of the swamp whispered, with a branch in her palm stuck in the pocket of Lu Li's windbreaker.
"no."
"You want them to build their own city?" asked the Swamp Mother again.
Lu Li shook his head.
"what is that?"
"I can't think of a suitable name."
…
Core cave.
The sleeping dignitaries were awakened one after another. Their servants were stopped by the knight as they prepared to enter the stairs with furniture and decorations.
The cave space in the dungeon is limited, no matter those huge portraits or furniture such as sofas and fireplaces are ordered to be thrown away.
The more than 2,000 caves have no difference except for their location. Each cave of about 15 square meters can accommodate 6 people. The only privilege that the elites in the core cave can enjoy is that they don't really have to huddle with five people and can live alone - servants and family members can live next door.
They couldn't disobey Matthaus' orders, so they had to bring the necessary items and relocated to the dungeon first.
The dignitaries who complained along the way came to the spectacular dungeon, and shut their mouths when they saw Lu Li standing not far away.
They moved into their new homes one after another, and the knights they followed embedded fluorite into the holes reserved in the walls, indicating that the cave was inhabited.
Not long after, Lu Li left Matthaus to the surface.
Because Andrea and Hemgrew have been repaired.
…
The cold tide licked the coast, Lu Li walked into the shipyard, and the dilapidated Andrea stood quietly.
There is not much they can do about the potholes and faded paint on Andrea's hull. They can't find paint at all in the refuge area. They only do what they can: check corrosion loss, deformation, watertight conditions, etc., replace the deck, and repair the captain's cabin. , Clean up rust everywhere.
The Hemgrew was in the same situation.
Fifty believers who followed the twisted figure to the surface boarded the Andrea and Hemgrew. They will drive the Hemgrew and return to the Ellen Peninsula to load the banyan tree guard.
