Chapter 208 Infinite Bridge
On the way back, Zhou Yi asked to obtain the memory information of Wuhu viaduct.

It was initially rejected.

"What are you planning?"

"Impossible, absolutely impossible, don't even think about it. I won't give you the chance to learn from those bastards."

Zhou Yi told it: "If you are willing to work for our company and take on intercity transportation, I will restore you to your peak state and will not limit the energy supply."

"But before that, I need to confirm that there is no problem with your structure. For example, you need to check for accidents such as structural abnormalities caused by the radiation of the death ray, your own destructive tendencies, and potential explosion hazards."

"I'm normal! I'm a normal viaduct, they are the ones with problems!"

"..."

There was silence for a while.

"Look if you want."

Then it just unfolds everything about itself.

It was the first time that Zhou Yi saw all the memory information of a building’s life.

From the perspective of the viaduct, the world is foggy and can only be seen clearly at a very close distance.

Later, Zhou Yi asked them in Emerald City and learned that this was a common feature, and that most of the building life forms were highly myopic. Because their bodies were extremely closed, they could only sense themselves, the energy of the dead light, and the life that touched them.

The memory of the viaduct is like an old silent movie.

Most of the time, it stands still on the ground, and the only way to see the passage of time is through the changes in rainfall and sunlight.

Zhou Yi sped up the image.

This information accounts for nearly 95% of memory.

Due to being located on land, the viaduct gradually became dilapidated and decayed due to insufficient dead light energy obtained from nature.

The first person to come into contact with the viaduct was a human being, with thick hair and wearing animal skins, like a savage. He held a torch and seemed to have lost his way here in the dark.

The man initially appeared frightened and surprised, as if he couldn't understand how such a building could have appeared.

After confirming that there was no danger, the savage hid under the bridge first. However, he seemed to feel unsafe, so he climbed up the viaduct along the pillars, and only felt relieved when he climbed onto the bridge.

He curled up under the wall guardrail and took a rest.

The viaduct had collapsed at both ends, and looked like a platform, with the savages perched on it like birds perching on a tree.

The wildlings left soon after.

But not long after, he brought many new humans dressed in the same way. They lit a bonfire around the viaduct, dug holes here, and used the broken viaduct as a shelter to survive.

After a while, a group of humans wearing leather armor appeared and conquered the village.

Further back, a large flock of thornbills and red-eyed vultures appeared.

Leading the group was a golden owl with strange ear-like tufts of feathers on its head and piercing eyes.

The armored humans kept kneeling before it.

Obviously the owl was the leader of the gang.

It spit out several light seeds, which were all absorbed by the bridge. The originally dilapidated and dilapidated bridge began to gradually repair its cracks, and the road surface became smooth.

The owl grabbed a savage and threw him onto the partially repaired bridge.

The savage suddenly started running wildly on the bridge. He ran all the way to the broken part of the bridge, and his legs seemed to be out of control, and he jumped off the bridge due to inertia.

He fell from a great height to the ground and it took him a while to get up, limping.

Zhou Yi asked: "Your ability can speed up objects on the bridge?"

“It’s the speed limit.”

The viaduct said: "As long as the energy is sufficient, for the moving objects on the bridge road, I will keep them at a safe speed of 50-80 kilometers per hour."

"What if it's less than 50 kilometers per hour?"

"I will help it speed up to this lowest minimum speed."

Zhou Yi confirmed again: "So you will help speed up any moving object?"

It replied: "I have always been effective on vehicles. But some lives are like vehicles, and some vehicles are like lives. I can no longer tell the difference."

"So any time an animal is trying to get from one end of the bridge to the other, I'm going to put a speed limit on it."

"Later I discovered that some lives themselves didn't know what it meant to be on the bridge. They were very fragile, and if I helped them speed up, it would cause them to collapse quickly..."

"So I also feel annoyed. I can't tell why they are on the bridge. If they are going to leave, why don't they go faster? If they are going to stop, why do they go on the bridge?"

Zhou Yixin said.

There are too many situations like that.

All he could say was, "Actually, you only need to worry about the cars with wheels."

"It took me a long time to learn this. It's hard to sift through all the lives that come on the bridge."

Wuhu Bridge complained.

Zhou Yi continued to observe his memory immersively.

The golden owl destroyed and cut off the new body that grew out of the viaduct. It ordered humans to make a specific circular track mold out of wood and fix it on the bridge. All the parts that did not grow in that direction were smashed by it.

This makes the viaduct like a small tree that is tightly clamped and eventually grows into the shape it wants.

Zhou Yi couldn't help but ask: "Your body was destroyed like this, and you didn't resist?"

"Why resist?"

This time, it was Wuhuqiao who was puzzled: "My function is to improve transportation efficiency. It is normal to transform into a corresponding form according to actual needs. My body is like this."

Zhou Yi was a little confused.

"Didn't you explode before? They attacked and destroyed you, but you were completely indifferent?"

"Oh, well, I don't accept being repurposed for anything other than transportation, so I'll blow myself up so they can't use me."

The viaduct said: "You too, I will not compromise!"

"..."

Zhou Yi didn't know what to say.

Fine.

This person is resisting by self-harm. Zhou Yi thought about it carefully.

The life of a building is indeed quite simple, and most of them only care about their own functions. Even military buildings like Yalong Bay have no intention or subjective intention to harm external life.

He continued to immerse himself in his memories.

Owl transformed the viaduct into a completely enclosed circular structure, and then had someone throw a black substance into the circular road.

These black substances started running rapidly inside.

Zhou Yi could see clearly that it was light soot sand.

A large amount of soot sand gradually connected together during the high-speed rotation, and various impurities and gravel were thrown out.

Due to continuous friction with the ground, the area began to heat up and smoke.

The soot sand inside turned into a crystal clear black color, shining like pearls.

The acceleration continues.

The shiny soot sand began to be drawn into strands of black fibers, entwining with each other and expanding.

This reminded Zhou Yi of a cotton candy machine.

Finally the viaduct ran out of energy.

Owl asked humans to take out the soot lines in sections and sell them to the large trucks waiting outside.

Then it feeds another energy pack and starts the next round of rotation.

Zhou Yi asked Hong Shun about this.

"It's a fiber-optic cable."

The drone replied: "This is a refined product of soot, which is much more valuable than the raw material of soot. It is used in some high-precision coatings, optical structure connections and surgical repairs. It is priced according to the length and thickness and diameter. The thinner the diameter, the more expensive it is."

"However, this process requires very high purity soot, and it is necessary to maintain a stable and uniform grinding speed for a long time to allow it to be naturally drawn and ultimately produce a stable line."

Zhou Yi understood it completely.

The Golden Owl turned the viaduct into a refining device.

Not long after, the viaduct itself exploded in protest of the tampering with its function.

The viaduct said, "How is it? Are you scared? If you are like it, I will explode with you too!"

"..."

Zhou Yi ignored it and continued reading.

The owl did not give up immediately. It repaired the viaduct. However, after several repairs, the viaduct continued to explode, which made it realize that there might be something wrong with the alien.

In the end, it chose to take people away.

Many years passed.

The viaduct was dug out of the sand by a team of humans.

The two humans in the lead were wearing black uniforms similar to sportswear, which were basically the same as Liu Zhaoshan's, and they undoubtedly belonged to the camp of Mr. Mieding.

Behind came another octopus with eight claws.

Under the command of the octopus, the viaduct reappeared and was repaired.

It extends the viaduct straight forward, and the bottom and sides of the bridge are covered with a thick layer of soot, covered with white ridges and metal structures, and equipped with large gun barrel devices.

As the light and energy were charged, these gun barrels fired one after another with astonishing power.

Zhou Yi asked: "Don't you have a speed limit? The speed of the cannonball can't be this fast, right?"

"It was the last bastard."

The viaduct said angrily: "It tampered with my body and extended the "speed limit" transformation to those artificial bodies outside, breaking through the area I can limit."

"As long as I am running, the speed will continue to increase... It has stolen my power and distorted my functions!"

No wonder it is called the Sea Crossbow.

Zhou Yi also felt alert.

It seems that Mr. Mieding has made great achievements in the field of scientific research. He has even cracked and applied some of the capabilities of the viaduct.

Hong Shun said: "In the Miedinggong camp, there is only one octopus in the leadership level, named Ringo, and it is also one of the most important earth officials in the Shuanghe area."

Ringo.

Zhou Yi silently memorized the name.

Although Ringo's transformation was very effective, it was still unable to withstand the viaduct's self-destructive resistance movement.

Eventually the viaduct sank into the Dead Sea after several explosions.

Zhou Yi said: "Don't worry, our company won't do that kind of thing. The viaduct will just serve as a traffic connection."

"You said it, remember your words."

The other party warned.

"How big are you in full body?"

"It is 1300 meters long, 17.5 meters wide, and has four lanes in both directions. These are the basic data."

Viaduct said: "But since you have unlimited energy supply, then there is no upper limit to my true complete form."

"What does it mean?"

"It means that I can extend infinitely!"

The viaduct proudly said: "No matter how far away the city is, as long as I have enough energy and basic materials, I can continue to expand and extend the bridge until it is connected to there!"

"It's just that the two guys in front were afraid that I was too big, so they didn't give me enough energy."

Zhou Yi heard a cry of "Oh shit".

Infinite Bridge.

Owl and Ringo were going in completely the wrong direction.

The viaduct alone can connect many towns and build a transportation system for the entire Shagang area.

This is its real strategic value!
