Renault grabbed Elon and asked for a long time before he understood what the fire hole was all about.

Simply put, the fire cave in another world is actually a "natural gas" cave, but I don't know what caused it to be ignited.

Within 1 kilometer around the fire cave, one can smell a faint peculiar smell. Obviously this is the smell of gas escaping from the fire cave.

The composition of alien natural gas is mostly different from that of the earth. So far, all the cases that Renault has seen have confirmed this.

The discovery of the fire hole was also an accident. When Elon was still at sea, the pirate he belonged to had a fierce conflict with another group of pirates, and the two sides played a "sea battle royale" on the vast sea.

Elon chased and killed the enemy, caught a hideout on the edge of the sea of ​​mist for two days, and successfully blocked the opponent in an area full of reefs, fog, and a large number of islands and reefs.

But this was not over yet, the enemy who was not reconciled to capture, abandon the ship decisively and set foot on the island, Elon naturally did not hesitate to chase up, and it was all at this point, of course he was not willing to give up.

Next was the "Battle Royale" that lasted for three days. The two sides ran around the extremely complex terrain.

Later, both sides regretted it.

Because this place is so dangerous, not only two groups of pirates but also several groups of monsters participated in the battle royale activities.

Then the scene became unprecedentedly chaotic. Pirates fell in love and killed each other, pirates and monsters also fell in love and killed each other, and even monsters also fell in love and killed each other.

In the end, the enemy pirates were all wiped out, and Elon lost most of it. He returned to the pirate ship after nine deaths. The typical loss was both, and it was a serious injury.

It was in this battle royale that made Elon's mind unforgettable, he encountered the "fire cave", a huge flame cave.

The "Gate of Hell" on the earth is only 70 meters wide, and the largest diameter of the "Gate of Hell" in the alien world is more than 200 meters, which is three times that of the "kind" on the earth.

Elon also mentioned one point solemnly.

The fire hole is very dangerous.

Not only because of the fire cave itself, but also because of some...different species bred from the fire cave!

Considering the dangers along the way, the fire cave is definitely an extremely dangerous place.

But Elon's oblique warning, instead of dispelling Renault's idea of ​​going to the fire hole, made his curiosity even stronger.

Those alien species born from flames... will they be fire elements?

Having been in another world for so long, not to mention the legendary species like giant dragons, even the elves and dwarves that are known to be running around in the fantasy world have not seen them, only a group of ugly black orcs, this makes Reynolds convinced A bit disappointed.

The XX of the Three Stupid Days throws their labor and capital into another world without saying hello, and they don't even arrange a few elven girls. It's really **** wicked to get home.

After finally encountering a species that was suspected of being a "fire element", he had to take a look at everything he said.

In addition to satisfying the curiosity of the lord, the energy issue is another key point.

If a steel plant is built in the fire cave, then the master will make steel in the future, isn't it...not even a penny of fuel?

Renault was thrilled just by obsessing about this front (money) scene in his mind.

This is really going to turn steel into the rhythm of the price of cabbage.

I thought that in the future, I could send the gang of Goode out to shout in the streets and alleys of the various human kingdoms: "Come here, the best tide steel, 10 copper nars and 1 catty, buy one catty and get one catty free" , He couldn't help snickering.

MMP, as long as the "Hell's Gate Steel Plant" can be established, labor and capital can destroy half of the world's steel plants in three years and wipe out the entire industry in five years.

Maybe there are iron ore near the fire cave, and even transportation costs can be saved by more than half.

This is not impossible. The island where the fire cave is located is mostly in the same geological zone as Tiejia Island, and the possibility of iron ore discovery is extremely high.

In addition, the energy source of the fire cave is not limited to steelmaking. The burning of cement and bricks can also come in handy, and the cost can also be incredibly low.

That's it, the master wants to enclose the land!

However, the matter of enclosing the fire cave into the site can only stay on the schedule for the time being. Before completing the "return to the mainland", he did not have the time and energy to explore the fire cave.

Regarding the question of "volcano", after repeated confirmation, Renault discovered that Elon had never heard of volcanoes, not only for him, but also for the whole world of turtles.

Because there is really no such thing as a volcano in another world.

In other words, there is no record of "volcanic eruption" in the recorded history of mankind.

Even knowing that another world is very different from the earth, Renault was truly shocked this time.

His "common sense" was completely subverted.

More questions uncontrollably emerged from Renault's mind.

What is in the "big ball" he stepped on? Is there no lava in the earth's crust?

But if there is no lava, how did the crater on Midway Island come from? How did the large and small islands in the ocean come from?

Are there plates in the crust of this planet? Is there continental drift?

Should labor and capital find a few scholars from other worlds, study geology, and find a way to calculate the age of the planet?

The constant accumulation of doubts in his mind prompted Renault to make a decision-take someone to the volcano crater in the afternoon.

Why not now?

Because a warehouse for storing supplies will be built this morning.

There are only more than 100 people on the Haichao. With this little manpower alone, there is no construction machinery. To build a warehouse that can store hundreds of tons of materials, how long will it take to build a warehouse?

In addition, there will be a group of island guards stationed in the warehouse, and they also need corresponding living facilities.

This is necessary, otherwise no one will take care of it and what should I do if the items in the warehouse are lost?

Even if it is the cold first snow moon, Renault believes that there must be beasts moving on the island. Will they find a way to enter the warehouse to have a look?

It is entirely possible.

There is food in the warehouse. In the freezing season, the most difficult for the beasts to find is the food, and the food is the most eager. In order to break into the warehouse, they will definitely do their best.

Even if the warehouse is closed, it may not be able to block them. Who knows what unscientific abilities these beasts will evolve?

The construction work is so heavy, how can Renault get away?

Regarding the location of the warehouse, Elon and Ronald had a little disagreement.

Elon hopes that the warehouse is as close to the sea as possible to facilitate transportation, so that unloading or transporting goods from the warehouse to the sailing boat can save a lot of time.

In the short term, it is unlikely that roads will be built on Midway Island, which also means that the means of transportation cannot be used and can only be transported manually.

If the distance is too far, the sailors will definitely be overwhelmed, especially in the case of transporting heavy oil, they have to transport hundreds of tons at a time. If the warehouse is more than 3 kilometers away from the sea, the sailors must not be too tired to vomit blood?

Therefore, Elon believes that the plain on the east side is the most ideal location.

But Ronald had different opinions.

He believes that safety is the first priority. The closer you are to the sea, the greater the risk in the event of a storm. The warehouse is built in a valley with mountains to shelter from wind and rain, and the safety is higher.

Midway Island is not an island that no one knows about. Many pirates know about this island. In the non-storm season, there are occasional pirates passing by Midway Island to supply water on the island.

If the warehouse were to be built on the plain, the pirates would be able to see it from a long distance. This approach would simply deliberately seduce the pirates to robbery.

Therefore, Ronald insisted that the warehouse should be hidden in the mountains.

In case of being discovered by pirates, the mountainous terrain is also easy to defend and difficult to attack, and it is easier to defend.

Faced with this argument, Renault couldn't help sighing.

The **** decides the head, which is really true.

Elon is the Director of the Navigation Department. He will naturally consider the problem from the perspective of convenient transportation, because the person responsible for moving the goods will be his subordinates.

If too much time is spent on transportation, what if it causes serious delays and causes dissatisfaction with the lord?

Ronald is different. He has a foreboding that he will become the first "owner" stationed on Midway Island in all likelihood.

In the island guard team, his strength is second only to Moos, but Moos has been promoted to the transcendent, and it is impossible to garrison this broken island where birds do not shit. Only he can take on this important task.

Knowing that he will stay on the island for a long time, Ronald certainly hopes that the location of the warehouse is as concealed as possible.

In the end, it was Renault who ended the dispute.

He just said lightly: "The warehouse will be built in the southeast corner."

Elon and Ronald's eyes widened suddenly.

The southeast corner... is full of steep mountain walls, almost no foothold can be found, and people can't stand it. How can it be possible to build a warehouse?

And there are rocks all over the cliffs, and sailboats can't get close at all.

However, as the lord's authority became heavier and heavier, the two dared not even speak to "admonish".
