After breakfast, Jiang Feng followed Xiao Xi to the surveillance room.
Looking at the densely packed screens, he was instantly dazzled.
There were more than a thousand perspectives, and the scenery inside was different. Only an artificial intelligence like Xiao Xi could see it.
"I want to see the situation in the strawberry field!”
Jiang Feng took the green tea that Xiao Xi handed over and instructed.
"Alright!"
Xiao Xi immediately pulled up a picture in the lower left corner. It was the strawberry field.
The camera was installed on a big tree not far away. The view was not very complete, and only a part of the strawberry field could be seen.
After a night, the strawberry seeds had not sprouted yet. There was only dark brown soil in the field.
Jiang Feng reached out and tapped on the screen to enlarge the image.
He immediately saw some ordinary ants crawling around in the field, looking for food.
Occasionally, when they found grass seeds or insect larvae, they would use their mandibles to hold them tightly and carry them back to the cave.
These ants were found by Black and the others from the forest in the north, and they were specially responsible for taking care of the ant queen.
"I wonder how the queen ants are doing. Have they started laying eggs?”
Jiang Feng's interest was piqued.
The surveillance camera could not capture the situation inside the ant nest, but there was a way.
He let Xiao Xi control a drone and follow the worker ants into an ant nest.
The ants on the floating island were very large, and the tunnel was as thick as an adult's waist, enough for the drone to fly normally.
It was Jiang Feng's first time entering an ant nest, and he found it rather novel.
The ant nest was divided into a main nest and a secondary nest, and there was a spacious ant path connecting them.
The main nest where the queen ant lived was shaped like a sheet, with many empty spaces, like small, irregular rooms.
The largest room at the back was where the ant queen lived. It had already laid many ant eggs.
Jiang Feng counted, there were about 150 of them.
It had only been an afternoon and a night, and so many eggs had been laid. The number of eggs laid in a day was estimated to be more than 200!
" Ten queen ants, lay 2,000 eggs a day, and they will grow up in two to three days after hatching…"
Jiang Feng was very satisfied.
Adding 2,000 ants every day might not seem like a lot, but these were all Black Iron Rank ants!
He only needed 27 of them to synthesize a Copper-Armored Army Ant!
One Silver-Armored Combat Ant!
This meant that two to three Silver Rank experts would be born in these ant nests every day!
If the other island masters knew about this, they would definitely go crazy with jealousy!
Jiang Feng revealed a smile.
As long as he was given enough time, he would definitely be able to nurture an invincible army!
Thinking about how shocked the others would be, the scene would definitely be very interesting!
"Master, your smile is so evil!”
Xiao Xi tilted her head and looked at Jiang Feng as she complained.
"How can this be called evil? He clearly has the demeanor of a king!"
Jiang Feng patted her and walked to the other side of the room to check the radar.
"This radar can only observe up to 50 kilometers?”
Jiang Feng asked.
"Yes, Master. It's all Xiao Xi's fault for being useless!”
Xiao Xi said aggrievedly.
"How could that be? Xiao Xi is the best!"
Jiang Feng quickly comforted her.
He didn't know if it was because he had been with Da Hua for too long, but he felt that Xiao Xi was about to become a drama queen.
"Hehe, I knew Master wouldn't blame me! However, Xiao Xi would definitely work hard!”
Jiang Feng rolled his eyes and looked at the radar screen seriously.
In the middle was his floating island, surrounded by a vast sea of clouds that kept changing shape with the wind.
There was no sign of the other floating islands.
Jiang Feng was not disappointed.
The floating island world was boundless, and there were billions of races living there.
Not only were there earthlings, but there were also orcs, elves, dragons, demons, and other races.
Once they met, they would often attack each other and snatch resources!
Although Jiang Feng was not afraid, it was good to have less trouble.
"Master, look here. I think I found something good!”
Xiao Xi suddenly pointed at a small black dot and shouted.
"What's that?" Jiang Feng asked.
Xiao Xi quickly zoomed in on the image.
The entire floating island was filled with light spots of different sizes, representing different meanings.
Xiao Xi pointed to the south of the floating island. There was a large black shadow below the ground.
"This is a small iron mine!"
"Iron ore?"
Jiang Feng's eyes widened.
This was good news!
Steel was too important to the construction of the floating island. It was inseparable from all aspects.
However, transporting steel from the blue planet was very expensive and troublesome.
This was also a major factor that restricted the development of the floating island!
If there was an iron mine on the floating island that could produce steel, it would be too convenient!
He did not confirm the authenticity of the news with Xiao Xi. Since she said that it was an iron ore, it must be an iron ore.
There was no mistake.
"How much iron ore reserves are there?"
"If all of them are mined, they can probably refine 10,000 tons of steel!”
Xiao Xi replied without hesitation.
"Ten thousand tons? That's quite a lot!"
Jiang Feng nodded in satisfaction.
A small iron mine of this scale was very inconspicuous on the Blue Star. It could not even get a mining license.
However, in the floating island world, it was a resource that made people envious!
Moreover…
Compared to the other Island Masters, Jiang Feng had an easy time mining.
There was no need to dig mines, buy machinery, or even hire workers.
He only needed to synthesize some ants!
What was even more satisfying was that…
His island had an inexhaustible supply of electricity. He could totally build a smelter and refine steel on the spot!
It was simply too perfect!
The more Jiang Feng thought about it, the more excited he became.
"Oh right, how are the eggs I brought back yesterday?"”
He brought the eggs of the earthwalking bugs back to the floating island because he was interested in their abilities.
Although these earth elemental beasts didn't have strong offensive power, they were good at digging holes.
He originally wanted to use them as engineers to modify the terrain of the floating island.
Now, it seemed that mining was more suitable for them!
When Xiao Xi heard this, she pulled up a new surveillance screen.
"I've built an incubation room and put all the eggs in. They'll hatch in a day or two at most!“
Jiang Feng looked at the surveillance camera. More than a hundred eggs were placed in the incubation equipment.
Some of the eggs were still squirming, clearly about to hatch!
"Pay attention and inform me immediately after hatching!“
Jiang Feng instructed.
"Alright, Master. I'll take note!”
