Global Wasteland: I Unboxed Top Vaults

Chapter 375 Ultimate Exploration, Major Strategic Resource Discovery!
On the boundless wilderness, most of the ice and water that were covered with it yesterday have already disappeared, replaced by plants all over the sky.

And those ice cubes and water didn't completely disappear, they gathered in lower-lying places and became patches of small ponds, small lakes, and even water bodies with wider water surfaces.

Looking down from a high altitude, these water surfaces are like huge mirrors, reflecting the blue sky.Those red-brown and yellow-green plants, like a huge mottled carpet, occupy the entire field of vision.

"Here, it really looks like the earth..."

Lin Yue looked at the wasteland, hills and water on the ground, and couldn't help but think of the beautiful grasslands he had seen when he was on earth.

In this different world, I did not expect to see such a scene.

However, there are no cattle or sheep here, and some are mutant creatures that look like small black dots and wander around on this "carpet".

Moreover, the number seems to be quite alarming.

"Gahoo." Xiaobai let out a low growl. Its pupils burning like flames stared at the mutated creatures on the ground, which were more than usual, and seemed worried.

Indeed, there are only tens of kilometers away from the refuge, and there are so many mutated creatures living there. Will they pose a threat?

"Don't worry, it's just the quantity." Lin Yue comforted his little friend. Compared with this, he was more worried about opening the low-level treasure chest until he vomited.

Lin Yue looked around again, but the scenery remained unchanged, and there was nothing worth noting.

The direction from which the two giant creatures came is obviously from this side.

According to the previous laws of natural sulfur ore mountains and saltpeter mines, there should be a huge mine at the center of the original range of activities of giant creatures.

And this mine is what the system calls a "resource point".

Whether it is natural sulfur ore or saltpeter ore, they are extremely important resources, which can enable survivors to master gunpowder and other technologies in the early stages, and even show their talents in previous disasters.

However, he has not found anything so far.

But having said that, it seems that only the first pack bull linnosaurus can emit poisonous gas, causing people to have a high fever.

Looking at the wilderness on the ground, the distribution of poisonous herb has become much sparser. Lin Yue still doesn't understand why this is so.

At that time, his high fever seemed like a dream.

However, he was not alone in this dream.

Many people in the previous group and later on the World Channel also said this.Even in the wasteland, the owner of the mysterious diary, Uncle Wang at home, and himself had a fever experience, but Uncle Wang died, and that person was still alive.

But speaking of it, the high fever that time was too outrageous.

Sudden onset can directly burn people to the point of confusion, and then quickly drain people's physical strength, making people weak to the point of failure.

Then the high fever went away like it never had.

The whole process is quite magical.

At that time, he had seen countless seeds of the poisonous herb on the giant creature Pack Bull Snake, and he had guessed whether it was after the Pack Bull Snake ate the natural sulfur ore and then the Mad Poison Herb. The addition of poisonous gas can make people have a high fever in an instant.

But this is just his guess, not entirely correct.

After all, he later learned from the chat records on the World Channel that this was not the case on the wasteland side.

In other places, similar "high fevers" also occurred, and some people died because they failed to withstand it, but many people still survived.

Among them, there are indeed people like Lily Karahau, Kaspar and others.

So was his previous guess right?Lin Yue doesn't have any more evidence and information now, so he can only believe that it is true for the time being.

"Gaw?" At this moment, Xiaobai suddenly uttered a sound, interrupting his thinking.

"What's wrong?" Lin Yue found that Xiaobai's flying altitude was constantly decreasing, and his speed became much smoother.

After a while, Xiaobai landed on the ground. After Lin Yue jumped onto the ground from its back, he suddenly found that dozens of mutated creatures that he had never seen before had surrounded him from a distance!
"Good guy, quite aggressive!"

Lin Yue didn't care to observe what these things looked like, and put on the armor and exoskeleton as quickly as possible. When he just picked up the sniper rifle, those screaming mutant creatures had already rushed to a distance of only a hundred meters, and the people around him Xiaobai also rushed out at this time!

With the mixed sounds of roaring and howling, impact and biting, the surroundings became quiet again.

Xiaobai flicked his tail, shaking off the blood on his arm, and the violent growl gradually subsided.

Lin Yue looked around at the corpses of 23 mutated creatures lying on the ground, then turned his head to look at Xiaobai, and couldn't help admiring secretly in his heart.

Xiaobai's combat power is now able to kill these mutated creatures that are the size of a rhinoceros in seconds?
Just as he was sighing, Xiaobai had pulled all the corpses of mutant creatures over and turned them into a small pile.

Each of the monsters on the ground looked extremely heavy. They all had snake-like scales, but they were black.The head is similar to that of a dog, and there are a pair of long horns turned outwards on the head, the eyes are red, and the fangs in the mouth look quite scary.

"Unfortunately, I can't eat it." Lin Yue appraised it and found that the evaluation of the meat of this mutant creature named "Dorusda" was "difficult to swallow", and the scales did not seem to be too hard. It is useless.

Lin Yue finally put away their heads and horns, and took all the corpses away.

Although it is useless, burying the corpse in the soil and rotting can still attract some small bugs or something, and you can get some wooden treasure boxes if you step on it if you have nothing to do.

Let the little ice lizards open these wooden treasure chests later, just right.

"Gahoo." Xiaobai growled again, as if reminding Lin Yue of something.

"What's wrong?" Lin Yue didn't hear any meaning of crisis coming in this voice, he turned his head to look in the direction that Xiaobai's arm was pointing, and suddenly saw a "river"!
He ran over quickly, toward the river that was bubbling with sticky yellow-black "river water", and when he got close, he couldn't help but take a deep breath!

"This is... wait, is this..."

【crude】

crude!

The systematic appraisal quickly told Lin Yue what an amazing thing he had found!

"It's really crude oil!"

Lin Yue looked at the extremely slow black river flowing forward in front of him, and felt an unprecedented joy and excitement!

Is this actually crude oil, a river of oil?

It is also a "river of energy"!
Petroleum, can be said to be the blood of modern industry on the earth, and also the basis of life, it is the so-called "liquid gold"!Controlling oil means development and money.

It can even be said that it is one of the most important factors that can affect the economic foundation of a place!

Today's technology is also built on the basis of petroleum. Whether it is industrial production or daily life, it is inseparable from petroleum.

Primary oil, that is, crude oil, is further refined to produce gasoline, kerosene, and diesel, and heavy oil can be further refined to produce asphalt, fuel oil, lubricating oil, paraffin, solvent gasoline, and so on.

It also produces organic compounds, which can be transformed into various chemical fibers, vinyl, plastic products, paints, and various detergents through various processes, affecting all aspects of life.

It is so important, and it is also a precious energy that all forces rush to get on the earth. It can be said that before various new energy sources are greatly developed and applied maturely, oil is a major strategy that can determine almost everything resource!
"I was able to find oil... Good guy, I'm about to take off, right?"

Lin Yue was still excited at the moment, it seemed like this was the first time.

With oil, you don't need to find others to exchange your various energy needs in the future...

wrong.

"It's useless to have oil without mining and refining machines."

Lin Yue quickly calmed down.

Before it can be refined, crude oil is just crude oil. If it is exhausted, it can be used as a fuel, and if you want to make other things...

It seems that I can only think about it.

So, is the bench tube for high-precision research useful?

Lin Yue took a unit of crude oil and touched it to the high-precision research workbench.

however……

Nothing happened.

The workbench didn't even send out any indication, whether it was dismantling or anything else.

Probably... is it impossible to decompose this natural mineral?

It was the same when we tried to decompose natural sulfur. Some natural sulfur ores had some gypsum attached to them, and the workbench could not separate them.

It seems that this trick is not going to work, and I have to find another way.

He quickly searched around the world trading platform, but found nothing relevant.

As for the survival point platform, the same is true. There are still no good things to buy in the survival point, but his survival point reached nearly [-] yesterday, which is scary and useless.

So, it seems there are only two paths left.

One is to find ways to get high-level treasure chests, the number should be large, and then open a wave with a white face to see if you can find something that can help in oil extraction and refining,
The second is to search in the secret realm, try your luck to see if it is possible to find oil and gas fields, and then make an exploded design diagram of the various equipment there, or directly carry it back and study it slowly.

weakness is……

The odds are simply too low.

The odds of certain goodies being dropped from high-level chests, especially oil extractors and smelters, are impressive.

After all, it's not a specified burst rate, there is no so-called prize pool, it's all very random.

It may be possible to open it immediately, or it may not be able to open a hundred.

As for finding it in the secret realm...

It's even more unlikely.

I don’t know how many oil extraction machines and smelters that have not been maintained for 50 years can be preserved, and let alone the integrity of the preservation, it is extremely impossible to find them.

Regardless of whether it is an ordinary ancient gate of the secret realm or a special ancient gate of the secret realm, the location leading to the earth is extremely random.

And judging from the rules of entering and exiting the secret realm so many times, almost none of them lead to cities or towns with more human beings.

The only one that is quite special is the small island with the airstrip, but apart from the airport, there are no traces of any industrial facilities on the small island.

It seems that we have reached an impasse.

Lin Yue shook his head.

Before taking further action, the most he can do is to enclose and protect this oil storage area as his own private property first.

With this mentality in mind, Lin Yue traveled against the oil river to its source area, wanting to see what is there in the place where the oil flows.

Indeed, it is indeed very good to be able to see this kind of resource, but without the method of mining and refining, it is useless to say anything.

Soon, Lin Yue and Xiao Bai stepped on the weeds that almost touched the ankles, and walked forward to the vicinity where the crude oil gushed out.

Many parts of the surface here are polluted by black crude oil, causing some places to become barren. Moreover, there is a small lake of about a few thousand square meters near the source, but the lake water is clear and transparent, and there are some dark spots in it. Huge shadows seem to be moving.

Lin Yue went around the shore of the small lake, and finally found the place where the crude oil gushed out.

It was like a torn hole, a huge crack seven or eight meters long. For some unknown reason, the crude oil was erupted. Although the flow rate was not fast, this "oil river" had already flowed nearly 200 meters Bar……

"Huh? What's that?" Lin Yue suddenly noticed that on one side of the huge crack, a yellow and black object that was almost completely submerged in the oil river caught his attention.

"Gah?" Xiaobai looked at the oil river, then at the master, thought for a while and suddenly grabbed him, put him in his arms and flew up!

Xiaobai quickly made another low-altitude dive, rushing towards the yellow and black thing!

Lin Yue instantly understood Xiaobai's thoughts, and he took out the Joyo Iron Spear. Soon, with the crisp sound of "dang" metal clashing, Lin Yue also found that a Got a huge thing!

When Xiaobai landed on the ground, Lin Yue looked over there again, and found that a huge pothole had been sunken there, and the crude oil next to it was pouring into it non-stop.

At this time, when he looked at the things in the storage space again, he couldn't help being shocked.

"Is it actually a huge medium-sized machine? The name is... an oil extraction and refining platform?"

Stepping through the iron shoes, there is nowhere to find it, and it takes no effort to get it!
Lin Yue took Xiao Bai back a little to a relatively flat and spacious place, and then excitedly took this huge thing out of the storage space!
Soon, a huge metal machine with a rather sci-fi appearance, but painted in yellow and black, revealed its true appearance!

"Good guy, this shape is completely different from what I imagined? I was in the Oil River just now, and I didn't realize how huge it is!"

Lin Yue couldn't help admiring this large machine, which was more than ten meters high, had a radius of more than ten meters, and had a huge boom.

But the admiration is the admiration, Lin Yue has never seen this kind of indescribable machine, but it should definitely not be an oil extraction machine or a smelting machine.

But if it works...

【Oil extraction and refining platform (damaged)】

Well, I knew it was bad.

However, wouldn't it be enough to decompose it into a design drawing?
