And in order to ensure normal driving in this world without roads, the tires are half a person's height and are designed for off-road obstacles.

It is normal for a car to have six tires. Each tire consumes thirty or forty kilograms of rubber. After all, in addition to the outer contour, inner pneumatic tires and other scattered parts, a hundred kilograms of rubber production a day is simply not enough. use.

The speed of a magic truck in two or three days is purely hindered by the production of rubber.

However, this output rate is now growing rapidly. Firstly, the effect of land transformation is being reflected. Secondly, the scale of rubber planting is also expanding. It is only a matter of time before rubber is free.

Regarding the option of using tire drive, Gudern has not thought of using tracks as drive components.

However, considering the various limitations of the track, we finally gave up this option for the time being.

The tracks are not without their advantages. They have strong off-road capabilities and strong load-bearing capacity. They are very suitable for the 'road conditions' of this world.

However, it is not as fast as the wheeled type, and if the track fails, it will have to lie down, making it difficult to maintain and repair.

The wheeled type does not have these shortcomings. Although its adaptability to terrain is not as good as that of the crawler type, it is not unusable.

Maybe in the future there will be magic tanks, or if abnormal weapons like magic infantry tanks appear and are suitable, then we will consider using tracks again.

Since the truck was loaded with cargo, Gooden and his team could only ride horses to the Asphalt Lake, while the truck slowly followed the team.

The group of people moved forward slowly and leisurely. After walking for more than three hours, they arrived near the Asphalt Lake in Xuegu Ridge.

Here, there is an asphalt mining camp of nearly a hundred people.

When everyone arrived, they all showed a little panic when they saw the lord coming in person, thinking that something went wrong in their work and the lord came to inspect.

But after knowing that the lord was here to guide the establishment of a new mining station and send them new supplies, everyone was relieved and very happy.

After all, the lord came to express his condolences in person. They had long known about Lord Qingyuan's reputation for loving the people, but actually experiencing this care and hearing about it were two different things.

Seeing the meat delivered on the supply carriage, everyone in the asphalt mining station expressed joy.

When Gooden inspected the asphalt mining station, the engineers who came with him were unloading the oil mining equipment on the truck and installing it on the marks made previously.

The inspection work did not last long. After a brief understanding, Gudern came to the site of the oil collection station.

The oil under the asphalt lake is said to be relatively deep, but that is only relatively deep relative to current methods.

According to the actual viewing depth, the oil hidden under the asphalt lake is already very shallow, only less than 100 meters under the asphalt lake.

This is also the main reason why asphalt lakes can be formed.

Although this distance is shallow, it is a huge challenge for Gudern, who has never had any mining experience in this area.

A large part of the equipment for oil extraction is composed of magic equipment, and the most important mining pipeline also occupies more than half of the equipment.

With the help of the Engineering Academy and auxiliary soldiers, the installation and debugging of the supporting equipment was completed in less than an hour, and the next step was the most critical moment - drilling holes to collect oil pipes in depth.

In order to simplify the mining process, the entire oil production equipment is designed to integrate drilling and oil production.

In this way, there is no need for extra manpower and material resources to bring a set of door opening equipment.

But even so, half of the equipment that came on this trip was occupied by the extraction pipeline, and the occupation of this part of the equipment was unavoidable.

Driven by a specially modified magic engine, a drill bit the size of a baby's fist began to operate, drilling downward continuously.

Drilling pipes were continuously added, and the hollow drill bit was also deepened. When the twelfth pipe was added, the drill bit pipe responsible for drilling suddenly sank under the influence of gravity and was stuck by the locking device.

This is a sign that it has been opened. In the absence of advanced measurement equipment, this primitive method can only be used to know whether there is a connection.

Of course, there is another way, which is to use the mental power of the mage to attach the detection.

Since there are various substances underground that block the spread of spiritual power, Gudern's current strength can only spread up to twenty meters underground.

But if it can rely on a hole to transmit downward, the distance can become deeper.

When he confirmed the oil before, he was so sure. When he felt down the pipeline, he found that the drill bit had broken through the rock formation and penetrated into the oil. He opened his eyes and nodded to everyone to express success.

Seeing Gudern nodding, everyone quickly operated the machine and took out the twelve pipes again. In a special tank at the tail of the drill bit, there was a viscous and dark brown liquid. This was exactly the oil he needed!

After replacing the special collection port, everyone was busy for a while and continued to put the connecting pipe back into the drilled hole and penetrate deep into the oil.

Gudern, who was on the side, was not idle at the moment. He was using the panel to check the oil field's reserves and entries.

[Name: Small shallow underground oil field]

[Entry: Evaporation and gasification, address stability]

[Introduction: A small shallow oil field hidden under the asphalt lake, with a reserve capacity of more than 50 million tons]

[Evaporation and gasification: Due to geological cracks, a large amount of oil gushes out along the cracks, and after extrusion and contact, it turns into natural asphalt]

[Stable address: The structure of the oil reservoir is stable and risks are unlikely to occur]

The last time he came, Gudern had already seen the oil field panels.

This kind of reserve is a surprise to him. Although it is only small, the amount of more than 50 million tons can be used by Qingyuan Town for a hundred years without any problem.

Unfortunately, no suitable entry modifications were found last time.

This time I also refreshed the entry reserve to see if there is anything I can replace.

[Flammable and explosive: A side effect of evaporation and gasification, causing the underlying voids to be filled with flammable and explosive gases]

[Pressure treatment: Increase the internal pressure of the oil field to speed up the extraction speed. As the oil field reserves decrease, the pressure will automatically decrease]

[Fault spread: Faults spread within the oil field, causing the structure to fragment and resulting in unknown results. It may expand the scale of the oil field and increase the difficulty of oil extraction]

The first of the three new entries was directly ignored by Gudern.

His eyes stayed on items two and three, but overall he was still very interested in item three.

This was only the second time he had seen this kind of dog-betting entry.

The last time I saw a similar probabilistic entry was when I was modifying the word 'Calm and Calm' that appeared on the mithril staff.

It seems that this kind of entry with a certain nature of dog betting belongs to the rare and hard-to-appear category.

However, as a good young man who firmly refused to gamble on drugs, Gooden directly chose to modify the 'evaporation and gasification' to 'pressurization treatment' to increase the collection speed of the oil field.

The familiar feeling of dizziness returned, but not as bad as before.

Regarding the side effects of this modification, Gudern has also discovered a little bit. It seems that as long as it involves large-scale modifications, it will have a mental impact on him.

At the same time, it seems that higher-level character modifications will also have such side effects, so there is a limit to his modifications.

After modifying one item, Gudern did not stop and continued to choose refresh.

But unfortunately, today's luck is still not that good. No suitable options appear in the remaining two refreshes of the six entries, so I have no choice but to modify it here for the time being.

The engineers who installed the equipment re-inserted the collection port into the oil under the previously opened hole, and the assembly was completed in less than half an hour.

Then connect the special valve port on the oil production machine to the underground storage tank that has been built nearby.

When the last valve is closed and locked, the integrated oil production machine also changes from drilling mode to oil production mode. The huge mechanical arm, driven by the magic engine, begins to pump underground oil in a swinging manner.

After a while, Gudern could sense that a large amount of oil was pumped into the underground storage tank.

After successfully extracting the oil, Gudern immediately asked someone to bring the iron barrel he had brought and poured oil into the iron barrel from the branch mouth.

Watching the dark, sticky oil pouring in, Moss, who was watching from the sidelines, felt a little strange.

"Isn't this the black fire water from the Burning Land on the other side of the wasteland? Master Gudern, what's the use of collecting this?"

Facing Moss's question, Gooden was surprised that the other party had seen this thing before, but he was relieved after thinking about it. As a local legend, the other party must have much more knowledge than him.

"Of course it's for making fires." Gudern explained in detail the use of oil, but it was indeed used for making fires.

"Make a fire?" Moss was obviously stunned for a moment by this statement, and then he quickly said.

"Master Gooden, don't you know that black water fire is poisonous? The smoke produced by burning this thing is toxic, and long-term users can easily get sick and die."

Gooden nodded, indicating that he knew.

"I know, but this problem is not a problem for me. I have a way to solve this toxicity."

Seeing Gudern's confident look, Moss stopped explaining and stood quietly aside, thinking about the relationship between 'oil' and the oil extraction machine.

There were only five iron buckets brought. After filling them, Gudern announced that he would call it a day and go home.

When they came, everyone came slowly and leisurely on horseback. When they returned, everyone got on the vacant trucks. As for the remaining horses, they were handed over to the small team to bring them back.

In less than half an hour, everyone arrived at Qingyuan Town.

Once again, Moss was eye-opening about the capabilities of the Magic Truck.

He originally thought that this thing couldn't run fast, but he didn't expect that it was actually moving slowly to follow the team.

After experiencing the performance of the magic truck, the mysterious power in the man's body is also unlocked.

Even though he was a magician, he couldn't resist the temptation of this steel beast. After returning to Qingyuan Town, he couldn't wait to get into the driving seat and follow the instructions of the driver beside him.

On the way back, Moss made a request to drive, but there was a car full of people in the car at the time. Gudern was afraid that Moss would repeat Herissa's behavior, so he temporarily refused.

But after agreeing to return to Qingyuan Town, he would let him drive and experience it while hauling goods.

After all, there is only one car in the whole town now, and a lot of transportation depends on it.

Moss had no objection to this. Anyway, as long as he could drive, it would be fine, and any help would be considered incidental.

Seeing Moss stepping on the accelerator excitedly and leaving, Gudern outside the castle couldn't help but fell into deep thought.

A legendary boss works as a truck driver for him in Qingyuan Town. Thinking about this kind of thing feels magical.

The key is that the other party is still so willing...

He shook his head and ordered his men to send the oil to the built distillery, while he returned to the castle to handle other matters.

By the time of the dinner, Moss, who had been driving for almost half the afternoon, returned to the castle with more than satisfied.

Seeing the other party's expression, Gudern also knew that this was to satisfy his addiction to driving.

At the same time, at the dinner, Moss also turned the topic to the magic truck, and he and Helisha had a heated discussion about driving experience and improvement ideas.

It has to be said that one of them is extraordinary and the other is legendary. Gooden also benefited a lot from the improvement ideas they gave. He secretly wrote down these ideas and prepared to use them together when developing the second-generation vehicle.

After everyone had eaten and drank at the dinner, their interest was aroused and they asked Gooden to borrow a truck, planning to go and have a good time.

Gudern did not refuse and agreed to use it. Anna, who was confused at the dinner, finally understood why the other two were so obsessed with it.

That night, on the road built along the city wall in Qingyuan Town, three people were riding in a truck and racing in circles.

In half a night's work, the three of them worked the magic engine until it collapsed.
