My Stand-in is Steve

 Chapter 653: Find the ore vein to complete the mission (

 As the black fog gradually dissipated.

 Fang Mo finally returned to the MC world after a long absence.

 “It’s finally over…”

 Returning to his own world after a long absence, Fang Mo couldn't help but let out a long sigh of relief. However, after relaxing, he suddenly felt a kind of tiredness welling up in his heart.

This feeling is like finally returning home after working overtime.

　　I didn’t feel much when I was working overtime, but the moment I opened the door, I just wanted to lie down on the spot.

“No, now is not the time to lie down...”

 Shaking his head vigorously, Fang Mo shook the tiredness out of his mind, and then looked around, looking for the location of his partner, ready to fulfill his promise first.

  After all, according to the game.

This man also has options after get off work...

 Just like taking a bath, eating, or finding ways to help the earth increase the fertility rate.

As a good young man, Fang Mo certainly chose the latter. This is a great thing that contributes to all mankind, and Fang Mo said that he has a duty to do so.

But after watching for a while, Fang Mo found no trace of the little demon.

Instead, on the west platform, Fang Mo saw Alex who was frantically busy... Of course, in addition to this, there were all kinds of amazing changes that had taken place on this platform. In some places, the changes were so big that even Fang Mo I can't even recognize the time.

If we say before Fang Mo goes to the copy of One Punch.

 The words here are just beginning to take shape.

So now, the entire west side of the platform has been completely transformed into a modern industrial base, and even Fang Mo can't understand it.

 The rubber cane fields are now fully automated.

 The automatic harvester is placed above the farmland, continuously collecting the sticky resin below, and then transporting it through pipelines to the centrifuge next to it, where it is automatically centrifuged into rubber and transported to the warehouse for centralized storage.

 Several automatic farms have also been built in the forestry sector.

Fang Mo took a closer look and found that in addition to the forest farm used for brushing wood, this little guy also set up a farm specifically for growing cotton.

The cotton is then harvested and transported intensively, and then enters the thermal expansion automatic workbench, where it is twisted into threads and synthetic wool is produced in large quantities. Finally, a molecular machine with dyes and advanced solar modules is used to energize the dyed wool and transform it into red. Stone, lapis lazuli, and fluorite and other materials.

 And on the ground on the other side.

  It was arranged by Xiaoyao in different modules and placed a large number of machines.

ˆThermal expansion resonance upgrade machines, industrial era ultra-high voltage overclocking machines, even more power devices, level storage, technological renaissance, and even a large number of GregTech machines.

 All these machines are placed in their own separate areas.

 However, these partitions can be connected to each other. Although they seem simple and elegant, they are unexpectedly very sophisticated and practical.

Fang Mo saw Alex wandering between these partitions from time to time, stuffing the materials in her hands into various machines like magic. Then she touched the workbench twice and took out various industrial materials in groups. Or maybe it's just some squares that I can't understand.

 “emmm…”

Seeing this dazzling scene, Fang Mo fell into deep thought for a while.

 Even Fang Mo was silent.

 Alix here still has no intention of stopping.

After walking around the industrial area, Alex seemed to have quickly built what she wanted. Immediately after the BACK command was issued, its figure disappeared instantly.

"Um?"

Fang Mo was stunned for a moment, but he quickly came to his senses and looked at his small map.

 According to the display on the mini-map, Alex had not gone far. After all, the avatar was still hanging around, so Fang Mo subconsciously raised his head and glanced in the air.

 The result looks like this.

 Fang Mo suddenly saw those densely packed things in the air.

 “What the hell!?”

The thing that made Fang Mo exclaim was none other than a generator in the industrial age...or to be more precise, it should be a wind kinetic energy generator.

The principle of this thing has been explained to me by my partner before. It seems that the rotor is first inserted into the machine to generate kinetic energy, and then the generated kinetic energy is transmitted to the kinetic energy generator. Finally, the electric energy can be collected with cables and centralized. It is quite troublesome to store it in the electrical box and supply it to the entire power grid.

 Actually, there is a mini version of this thing.

 If Fang Mo remembered correctly, that thing seemed to be called a wind turbine.

But that was a machine from the industrial age in ancient times. At that time, the module was not as complex as it is now. Once the wind turbine was ready and thrown into the sky, it could automatically generate electricity around the clock.

 But the power output of that thing is too low.

Although this wind kinetic energy requires a rotor and a kinetic energy generator, the power generated is very considerable. Normally, if you just make a few, it will be enough for most players to use in the early and mid-term.

 But the current problem is…

The vast majority of players do not include little demons.

So Fang Mo made a rough count and found that there were currently at least eight sets of wind kinetic energy generators in the air, all connected by iron cables, which were centrally supplying power to the three molecular machines.

Now the top of the entire industrial area is almost filled with these generators. As long as you look up, you can see a dense pile of generators hanging in the air. Countless carbon fiber fan blades are turning crazily. There is even a kind of An indescribable feeling of ghostliness.

Fang Mo even had a mysterious melody like "The windmill whirls slowly" in Fang Mo's mind.

 However, this is already the case.

 Alix here is still continuing to expand.

 “No, just wait for me...”

Seeing this scene, Fang Mo couldn't help it anymore, and started shouting to his partner on the public screen: "You haven't been violent for so many days, have you?"

"…if not?"

 Soon, Xiaoyao also gave a reply.

Alex stopped and looked down at Fang Mo on the platform below: "The technology modules on your side are too far behind. I will definitely have to help you. And why are you doing this?" I came here and I didn’t have any idea?"

“But now I don’t know how to count anymore.” Fang Mo also spread his hands when he heard this.

　　… “Only forced is left.”

"you."

Hearing this, Xiaoyao was obviously speechless.

However, Fang Mo raised his head sincerely and looked at Alex with an expectant look: "This is what you promised me before. We are all adults, so we don't want words to count..."

 “That’s okay.”

After being silent for a long while, Xiaoyao seemed to have made a weighing decision.

I saw Alex suddenly jump down and jump directly back to the industrial platform. She looked face to face at Fang Mo in front of her, and the items in her hands began to change back and forth.

　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　?)

When Fang Mo saw this scene, he seemed a little confused about the other party's path.

"That's it." Quickly, Alex seemed to have chosen the items, and quickly threw a few props at Fang Mo: "You go out and look for the mineral veins first. If you can find them, I... promise you That’s fine.”

 “Grass, just a vein of minerals!”

Fang Mo became excited when he heard this: "If I can't find the vein today, I will just use the Benzi as a pickaxe to drill through the bedrock and show you... Just take off your pants and have a look!"

“I want these veins of bauxite, iron, gold, uranium, lapis lazuli, nickel, lead, and platinum.”

Hearing that Fang Mo responded, Xiaoyao directly stated his needs: "In short, just look for the ore veins. I can handle the setting up of the wheel bucket, logistics, and batch processing of the ore myself."

 “OjβK!”

Fang Mo immediately snapped his fingers when he heard this.

 Then Steve appeared like a spirit from behind.

After Steve appeared, Fang Mo first controlled him to clean his backpack, and then picked up the wrench, the resonant energy unit, and the thermally expanded core drilling that Xiaoyao gave him... and started his own running map directly. journey of.

 In fact, for things like finding immersed mineral veins.

 This is not the first time Fang Mo has done this.

Earlier before, when he and Xiaoyao were playing happily in the server, he would often run around to help her find this thing.

Although he, Fang Mo, is one of the best in mining in the server, known as the humanoid wheel bucket... but to be honest, some minerals are still quite difficult to mine, such as uranium ore in the industrial era. Too little is generated, and the opponent consumes it in groups. If you think about it, it is more convenient to find ore veins.

 This is called finding veins.

 In fact, there is no technical content in it.

It's nothing more than placing the core drill on the ground, then placing an energy unit next to it for power supply, right-clicking it and waiting for the machine to finish running, and you will be able to see whether there are any mineral veins in this block.

Fang Mo’s thoughts moved slightly.

 Soon Steve took the initiative to look for veins of minerals.

  Taking advantage of this period of time, Fang Mo also visited his platform again.

I have to say that his little partner really worked a lot. After walking around for a while, Fang Mo found that not only the industrial area, but also other areas had undergone obvious changes.

 And this is the most obvious.

　　Probably it’s around the livestock area and kitchen.

 The first is the livestock area. On the platform where the entire livestock area and the planting area intersect, there are several more agricultural trade blocks of Panmas Farm.

Fang Mo casually opened it and took a look, and found that there were some things related to trade. Not only could you use emeralds to buy various seeds, spawn eggs, queen bees, etc., but you could also sell agricultural products in turn. Replace with emerald.

 This means that even if Fang Mo does not persecute the villagers, he can still have unlimited emeralds to squander.

  After all, he has an apatite indestructible sickle in his hand... he can ripen and harvest crops infinitely, and then he can brainlessly exchange these crops for emeralds and that's it.

 Just apart from this trading platform.

Fang Mo seemed to vaguely see the cowshed not far away, which was strange.

When he took a closer look, Fang Mo was shocked to find that the cows were locked on the machine, and then a large pipe was directly thrust behind the cows. Along with a crackling fart sound, the machines were flickering. Dark flickering.

 “No…what is this thing?”

Fang Mo was also shocked when he saw this. What kind of new method of persecuting Niu Niu is this?

 “Oh, you said this.”

Alex from a distance glanced here and probably saw what Fang Mo was asking, so she simply explained on the public screen: "This is a fart generator that can collect methane from cows when they fart. Get up and generate electricity, the efficiency is quite high..."

"ah???"

Fang Mo was stunned for a moment when he heard this: "No, what kind of underworld module is this?"

 “Are you asking me about the modules you unlocked yourself?”

However, facing Fang Mo's doubts, Xiao Yao responded mercilessly: "How do I know what you have done?"

 “Well, I unlocked it.”

When Fang Mo heard this, he subconsciously scratched his head: "That's okay..."

 Yes, Fang Mo also remembered it at this time. It seemed that he had really unlocked this module himself, but it was too far forward and he had forgotten about it. It seemed that he had unlocked it when he first entered the Evolution House.

Of course there is nothing we can do about it.

 After all, Fang Mo has unlocked too many modules this time.

If I remember correctly, Fang Mo unlocked the battle tower when he first came to this world... He unlocked more than ten modules in the Evolution House alone, and as for what happened after that, to be honest, Fang Mo himself I can’t even remember them, there are too many.

"Um?"

Thinking of this, Fang Mo's mind moved slightly.

He checked the number of modules he had by consulting the configuration file.

It didn't matter if he didn't check the results. He was stunned when he checked. He actually unlocked a total of twenty-six modules this time.

And if you consider that he unlocked two meteorite modules at the same time, then he has actually unlocked twenty-seven modules, but one is missing due to the fusion of modules.

The twenty-six modules are...battle tower, land of chaos, large storage tank, advanced generator, forestry bee query, adventure dungeon, forestry bee and technological renaissance linkage, potted plants, rapid leaf decay, and the head of the abyss. , more heads, creature display bottles, fart energy generators, more boxes, double meteorites, drugging, Iron Fist Steve, eating, health bars, buildings, crate movers, railways, immersed in crude oil, large mineral veins, enders Storage, Industrial Age Reactor Turbine Expansion.

　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　…

 Seeing the number of modules, Fang Mo couldn't help but take a breath.

"What's wrong?"

Alix, who was not far away, raised her head and glanced at Fang Mo.

"Damn it, I actually unlocked a total of twenty-six modules." Fang Mo couldn't help but scratch his head, and said to Xiaoyao on the public screen: "No... I actually stayed in One Punch World for this long For a long time?"

 “How long?”

 However, Xiaoyao's tone was quite calm: "I don't feel anything."

 “I’m numb.”

Fang Mo raised his forehead when he heard this: "No wonder I always felt something strange when I left this time... Did you stay too long?"

“If you think it’s too long, just make it shorter next time.”

The little demon complained angrily, and Alex started to expand the wind power array again, seeming a little too lazy to pay attention to him.

Fang Mo shrugged and surprisingly did not reply to her.

  After all, he has now understood a truth, that is, real men never use just words to criticize people. It doesn't hurt to let this little thing be arrogant for a while, anyway, she will cry later.

 In short, I have this mentality.

Fang Mo also visited his platform leisurely, observing every subtle change.

 After the visit, he sat on the ground and watched Alex working and building machines. A few days passed quickly, and good news finally came from Steve's side.

 The ore veins have been found.
