Chapter 683: Chapter 426: A Lonelier Wait【7400-word Super Large Chapter】_2

But there was still some light in the natural environment, and his visibility actually improved.

In the dense forest of heterotrophic trees, numerous insects emitted lustrous glows of various kinds.

These insects chased the flowing lights, sometimes gathering together, sometimes dispersing, and sometimes traversing between the trees like a galaxy in the sky.

The scene appeared dreamlike and enchanting, as if he were in a fairyland.

From time to time, small birds that fed on insects darted through like lightning, causing the glowing insects to leave voids in the aerial rivers they formed.

Harrison Clark did not turn on any lights, instead wearing a simulation helmet that used ultrasonic feedback imaging to discern his surroundings.

As he walked, he observed, investigated, killed unyielding animals, and occasionally collected some biological batteries.

The complex landscape and dense animal and plant life of the mountain range provided a staggering amount of information.

Moreover, even if there were traces of human activity, such as footprints or the ashes of a campfire, these would not be preserved for long due to the high-frequency activities of the many animals in the area.

Judging by the abilities of these animals, Harrison estimated that an ordinary Galaxy Warrior without equipment wouldn’t survive more than three days here.

Since Sergey’s secret base had been hidden for nearly five hundred years, it certainly wouldn’t be out in the open; he would have to meticulously seek it out.

Harrison didn’t daydream about finding it instantly; he was prepared for a long-term struggle and settled in the valley.

Time flew by, and three months had passed in the blink of an eye.

During these three months, Harrison had combed through Hammersley Ridge more than ten times.

His database was filled with enormous amounts of complicated information, detailing each plant, insect, and animal in the mountain range.

He was also able to simulate and predict the dynamics of all the flora and fauna, down to when a plant would take root and sprout and when it would wither away.

He completed a full topographical simulation with the Gravitational Wave Detector, probing up to three kilometers underground.

Within this three-kilometer range, he could precisely measure the flow of soil and rock in the Earth’s crust, down to units of grams.

Countless small modules combined to form a simulation akin to ocean currents.

Furthermore, even though the Gravitational Wave Detector could only accurately scan up to five kilometers below ground at most, Harrison gathered and assembled data from around the world that was not as technologically advanced or accurate from conventional geological survey equipment.

This equipment included geophysical and geochemical surveying, trenching, drilling, large-scale geophysical surveying equipment, and more.

In the field of geological simulation modeling, geophysical exploration methods were mainly used, such as gravity, magnetism, electricity, seismic, and radioactive surveys.

In short, Harrison employed every method available to him, not seeking absolute accuracy, but rather collecting more comprehensive data with a greater number of detection techniques.

As a result, his geological data expanded to a depth of eighteen kilometers underground, though the technological levels of the data varied: three kilometer depths were based on the 31st century level of the Seventh Timeline, depths between three to ten kilometers were based on the 25th century level, and depths between ten to eighteen kilometers were based on the early 22nd century level.

The massive amount of data required him to expand his large data storage, which was nearly running out of space.

Continuing to collect data wouldn’t make sense, so on September 3, 3020, he officially declared an end to his sweeping operations.

With his current computing capabilities, he was unable to convert the data into a visually discernible image.

Gathering the data had taxed him greatly, reminding him of the fear felt when opening a 2008 version of a computer program on a 2019 QQ system.

Thus, he created an algorithm and delegated the calculation tasks to a server in the background.

As for himself, he started manufacturing chips and installing them into the server one by one.

With just under sixty days left until October 27, 3020, Harrison’s sense of urgency intensified.

By now, he had completed the basic construction of a new, top-of-the-line spacecraft and placed it on the outskirts of Oxfordshire.

The ship was approximately five thousand meters long, one thousand one hundred meters tall, and two thousand meters wide, shaped like a traditional spindle.

It wasn’t that he didn’t want to create a triangular spindle or snowflake ship, but given his abilities, he could only manage a stable, curved membrane layer in spindle shape.

Asking him to create other shapes or develop a structure that could perfectly adhere to the surface of the ship was demanding too much.

The ship was named Morrowind No.2.

The No.2 was equipped with two high-performance curvature engines without intelligent assistance, a force field shield generator lacking intelligent algorithm support, a large-scale, handmade biological battery power system, a Dyson membrane solar wing that couldn’t accurately and stably control energy conversion without a chip, and hundreds of small- and medium-sized devices for scientific research and production.

Inside, he placed various robots from different eras and styles that were mostly complete except for their chips.

Over 60% of the usable, technologically advanced parts on Earth had been collected to form eight large warehouses next to Morrowind No.2.

About 70% of these parts had been reassembled into various items and inserted into the No.2.

In theory, after Morrowind No.2 flew out of the Kuiper Asteroid Belt, it could accelerate continuously in the universe and achieve a stable speed of twice the speed of light within a month.
