I'm not an elf supporting character

Chapter 823 One dares to borrow and the other dares to borrow, an active volcano wandering in magma
Larousse City——

Although the scene in front of him is far from it, Li Xiang thinks that it already has its prototype here.

Generally speaking, normal development starts from infrastructure construction, but Chaomeng has turned a corner since it built its core building, using its extraordinary wisdom to step on the shoulders of human technology to develop artificial intelligence crazily.

no way.

Chaomeng does not intend to introduce too many humans for the time being, and wants to build the entire island. The labor force is too scarce, and they cannot fully meet its needs with monster power and veteran builders.

What's more, these Pokémon whose talents are in construction are still borrowed from the alliance, and they are not so proficient in ordinary work.

Faced with the labor force that will be returned sooner or later, Chaomeng made a choice between going out to kidnap and finding a way by himself.

This is also due to the time I went to see Li Xiang's regional finals, otherwise it would not have had the opportunity to come into contact with such things as cube robots and artificial intelligence, let alone the later learning and "reference".

It seems now.

Manufacturing robots is much more cost-effective than looking for Pokémon kidnapping all over the world. Even if necessities such as raw materials and chips cost Chaomeng a lot of money, living things are more troublesome than dead things.

At present, Chaomeng is preparing more semi-mechanized factories for the mass production of cube robots and construction of infrastructure.

And the reason for that is more.

Because of--

In the center building.

Only Li Xiang, Chaomeng and Magiyana walked in the corridor, surrounded by a milky white background and countless machines, as well as assembly line-like things, they were running in a semi-automatic form, Produce something that he can't understand at all.

Obviously.

This is the tallest building in Cyphilia spinosa island, which was built into a huge integrated factory by Chaomeng. No wonder I always felt that the facade was strange when I saw it just now.

"Wouldn't it be troublesome to put factories in skyscrapers?"

He couldn't help turning his head to ask Chaomeng.

"It was troublesome at the beginning, but it will be fine after the power plant is built and there are more cube robots.In addition to Zhuxia's technology, I also combined the technology provided by North America and the alliance headquarters, and transportation and storage have been solved. 』

Chaomeng paused, "It's just that the price is a bit expensive, and the outside work has been suspended for a long time after it was built, and the materials are insufficient." 』

"It's a bit expensive... have you spent all the gold bars you got?"

"The gold bars were all spent last year. I tried my best to save money. Unfortunately, the items sold by those people are more expensive than the other ones, especially the core chip of the cube robot, which is more than [-] yuan per chip-this is still a discounted price. 』

"I spent it all last year, so where did you get the money this year?"

"Bank loans, and I discovered many subsea oil fields and scattered precious metal deposits.But in order not to affect the wild Pokémon living there, I can only mine for protection, which is very slow and time-consuming. I plan to arrange robots or Pokémon to mine in the future. 』

"So you now..."

"I owe the bank [-] W, and if they can lend it to me, it means that I have the ability to repay it. 』

Li Xiang twitched the corner of his mouth, not knowing what to say.

The dignified strongest man-made Pokémon actually owes money to the human bank, and what's even more frightening is that the bank actually borrowed it!A full 3000 million!This is the second incredible thing after the alliance gave a big island.

There are also many strange things in the follow-up, such as Chaomeng having to buy chips made by humans in batches, losing the help of human industry, the construction period of the entire island will be suspended, etc...

This scenario is both realistic and frustrating.

After all, human beings have developed for an unknown number of years, and if Chaomeng does not rely on force to catch up with them, it must pay a certain price.

Mere money is nothing.

To get rid of the restraint of human beings, Chaomeng must develop its black technology industry.But there is no doubt that this kind of thing will not be accomplished overnight.

He looked to the side.

It was found that Magearna was staring at a honeycomb-shaped cube robot, and it made pooping and beeping sounds from time to time.

Artificial life and artificial intelligence are communicating?
Out of curiosity, he asked Rotom about the content of the communication between the two, but got Magearna asking all kinds of strange questions, but the box robot kept answering the sentence "beyond the scope of function".

This guy... actually wants to get an answer from a pure program?

Li Xiang was speechless for a moment. Although both parties were man-made, Magearna had her own thoughts and could decide what to do, while everything the box robot did was just a program set in advance by the programmer.

Therefore, Magearna will not be able to get the answer she wants, unless Chaomeng temporarily searches for some chicken soup for the soul on the Internet and records it...

Ok?
Maybe give it a try?
Anyway, it's good to have something positive and positive to make it feel good.

He thought about it a little bit, but he was not so anxious to discuss it with Chaomeng immediately, at least when Magearna was away.

Get on the elevator.

Chaomeng took them to the top floor of the central building. The dark and empty environment made Li Xiang a little confused.

But the next moment.

The entire space on the top floor was lit up, glowing from all directions, even the floor.

Magearna raised her foot while holding her skirt, and then slowly put it down after a few seconds of hesitation.

"Welcome home, island owner, and respected guests, Simulator One is at your service."

A face with invisible facial features appeared in the center.

Instead, the surrounding walls and ceilings gradually became transparent, exposing the outside world to their eyes, and they even had a clear view of the simple buildings below and the vast coastline.

Even the storm in the far distance can be clearly heard.

"This is powerful."

Li Xiang said with a little amazement: "360 degrees, even the ceiling."

He raised his head, the bright sunlight made him a little flustered.

"If it is built higher, maybe the whole island can be seen with the naked eye."

"I do. 』

Chaomeng nodded in agreement, "This building will continue to be built up in my plan, but that should be a long time later. 』

"Because there is no money?"

"Because there is no money. 』

It honestly stated the biggest difficulty at present, "I originally planned to go back to mine oil and precious metals tomorrow, and use 'capital' to pay off debts." 』

incredible.

Li Xiang touched the bank card in his trouser pocket, thinking that if he didn't find a chance, he would leave it to Chaomeng. The bonuses and dividends after winning the championship last year had totaled more than 7000 million.But because he is being raised by the school, and he lives in the school and Kirishima all year round, there is basically no place to spend money.

Instead of eating interest and increasing the above figures, it is better to use them in more valuable places.

……

Come out of the central building.

Chaomeng has not forgotten the main topic of today - let Magiana get in touch with the Pokémon on the island.

The Pokémon on the island today are divided into three parts, the ones brought out from Kirishima at first, the ones rescued by Pokémon hunters, and the aborigines on this island.

There are quite a lot of Pokémon that can be bred in three thousand square kilometers. In comparison, outsiders like Chaomeng and others are just a drop in the ocean.

When it first came here, it also had the idea of ​​peaceful coexistence, and wanted to copy the ranger's operation method, but the Pokémon on the island were too exclusive, and they always came to trouble.

Chaomeng had no choice but to subdue all the aborigines on the island with difficulty and became their only king.

It's hard for the rangers to say anything, after all, the former is a Pokémon, and one of the Pokémon's habits happens to be expanding its territory.Now that Chaomeng's identity is recognized, no one can intervene as long as it does not harm the lives of the aborigines.

This is much more justified than human expansion of cities, construction of power stations outside cities, dams and other things.

And what Magearna saw first was the first batch of Pokémon who came with Mewtwo.

Inside the vast hall.

Also from Kirishima, it can feel the kindness from these vicious-looking guys in front of it, so even if it was licked and sniffed by the violent dragon, it didn't say anything.

On the contrary, he released the flowers in his hand as a sign of friendship.

After going back and forth, they became acquainted.

Li Xiang, who noticed Magearna's happy mood, smiled slightly. After releasing his Pokémon, he gave them all the space and retreated slowly.

Outside.

Chaomeng is suspended in mid-air, as if observing something.

Following its line of sight, Li Xiang found that the location where his eyes were pointing was the dormant volcano behind the soft mountain range.

"What's wrong? Is there something wrong with it?"

Li Xiang looked up and asked.

Chaomeng fell slowly, nodded after a pause of two seconds, "It is waking up, and it may take another year or two." 』

One or two years!

He was surprised: "One or two years? It's too short. No wonder the alliance is willing to give you this island. Can you stop it?"

"With my current strength, it is very difficult if the dark matter form is not counted. 』

Chaomeng did not shy away from his own prediction, "The main reason is that its eruption volume is very large and the duration is not short. It can protect itself, but it is foolish to completely block it. The best way is to solve the problem from the root." 』

"The root cause - how to solve it? Go deep into the liquid layer under the earth's crust to relieve the ground pressure?"

Li Xiang asked curiously, but Chaomeng suddenly turned his head and glanced somewhere.

Several seconds passed.

It said: "If you want to prevent its eruption, you must let the Gulardo deep in the ground continue to sleep, and don't get up, let alone get up. 』

It turned out to be the case.

turn out to be--

Ok? ? ?
"Wait! Gulardo! Did I hear you right? The Gulardo you are talking about? The legendary incarnation of the earth, the Pokémon who likes to cause volcanic eruptions to expand the continent?"

Li Xiang felt his lips trembling.

In just a few days, how many names of divine beasts and phantom beasts appeared next to his ears?Although Magearna is the only person I've actually met so far.

Tornado Cloud, Thunder Cloud and Gulardo all appear only in Chaomeng's mouth.

"That's it—you may have misunderstood, it's not sleeping under this island. 』

Chaomeng realized what Li Xiang was thinking, and explained: "The place where it sleeps is just where you said before, the liquid layer."The body is flowing with the flow of magma, if it wakes up here, this volcano is its only exit. 』

"...Gulardo likes to drill volcanoes?"

"The rangers and the alliance told me so, and they can't be sure whether Gulardo will definitely wake up, but it stands to reason that it will wake up every 20 years or so, drill out of the ground to breathe, and then go back to sleep. 』

"Not doing other things?"

"Don't do it. 』

So this is equivalent to a fat man who has lived for an unknown number of years must leave the 'door', yawn and spit after leaving the door, and go back to sleep without tidying up after spouting.

Too much!

Li Xiang didn't know how to complain for a while. The pair of Gulardo and Kyoka were considered to be the model workers in the beast in the previous life. No matter whether there are them in the theater version, there are also animation specials, and there are still in the main story.

Unlike some mythical beasts that don't even have a theatrical version.

"Then what are you going to do?"

He asked worriedly, cover god-level Pokémon are often extraordinary. The most powerful Pokémon are celestial phenomena, and the ones that are almost capable of beating alien creatures with a broken sword in their mouths, so that the opponents can't change. big.

"It's too early, don't worry, I'll go down to find him when there's an omen." 』

Chaomeng felt very relieved when the time came.

While the two were chatting.

A red-haired man came out from nowhere, holding a camera in his hand, quite excited.

"I finally captured that bastard! Let him steal my one-month ration! ××××!"

What the hell?

Li Xiang glanced at his face, then glanced at the temporary certificate and patrol badge on his chest about Cyphila spinulosa Island, and was speechless.

The rangers in other areas are more or less special, such as the one in front of him, it's okay to swear directly, a bit stubborn.

And when Li Xiang saw the other party, the other party reacted belatedly, "Oh, sorry, I was excited at the moment. You are Li Xiang, right? My name is Baroque, and I was sent by the Ranger Union to assist Chaomeng personnel."

"I know. 』

With Chaomeng's answer, the former showed a smile and shook hands with this Baroque.

It is said to be an assistant, but it is actually similar to the "Overseer", because there is no chance for him to intervene, and the whole process can only be watched from the sidelines, but it is not the Overseer.

Because life is really boring, and these two days just happen to be on vacation, he can only go to shoot the ecology of Pokémon.Then it happened that a certain bird Pokémon in lurking ate up the ranger's ration.

He tracked almost the whole day before he found the culprit behind, and took a picture of the masterpiece he thought he was satisfied with.

Li wanted to appreciate it.

Ok.

Pretty cute.

However, there are still wood owls on this island. I don’t know whether it is because of the southern hemisphere or the diversity of species.

……

Inside the Great Hall.

Looking at Magearna talking and laughing with all the Pokémon, she was very satisfied with the environment here.

A person can deceive his eyes but not his heart, and the same is true for Pokémon. Kirishima's environment is good, but it feels like sitting on pins and needles there, because those seemingly peaceful, but in fact extremely repulsive gazes are really uncomfortable.

Alsophila Island did not have that kind of look, even the two guys in the corner who claimed to be aborigines did not take the opportunity to show any hostility.

When Li Xiang came in from the outside, Magiyana had already made up her mind, put her hands on her stomach and bowed slightly to express her thanks, and gave her an answer without waiting for her questions.

——Sure enough, it’s Cyphila spinulosa Island.

The former thought it was really not suitable for the outside world, so he sent it back, but he didn't expect the other party to choose one.

"Don't worry, think about it more, the physical sensation on the first day is nothing, you have to choose for yourself."

Li Xiang looked at it seriously, and said: "If you don't like it, let's go back, don't force yourself, be yourself."

"Porphyrin..."

Magearna lowered her head slightly.
