Chapter 416 New Immigrants (Part 2)
The immigration cruise ship did not stop in Shanyang City, but continued to its next stop, Gobi City.
Although the ship was sailing very smoothly, there was still a slight shake.
None of the new immigrants, regardless of gender, age or status, who were eating in the restaurant, suffered from seasickness.
This is not because these people do not suffer from seasickness. About 17.6% of the immigrants suffer from seasickness to varying degrees, but these people do not show symptoms of seasickness.
The reason is that all people have been implanted with symbiotes in advance, which can prevent the body from experiencing seasickness symptoms by affecting the brain stem.
Hulu took a bite of the stewed mutton, then picked up some fried pork with onions. He asked curiously, "Do you feel that your muscles have grown?"
The others thought back and realized that before they smuggled themselves across the border, their bodies were as skinny as a monkey's, but now they had obvious muscle outlines.
"Indeed, my arm muscles have grown bigger." The severed finger clenched into a fist, and his sleeves bulged against his biceps.
"Is it because I often eat meat, eggs and milk?"
“Exercise has something to do with it, right?”
Everyone was discussing it at once.
In fact, they have only been in the Sapiens company for more than two months.
Under normal circumstances, even if you are very determined and use protein powder as an aid, it will take at least three months to develop obvious muscle definition.
Although Homo sapiens pay attention to a balanced diet, the ratio of meat, eggs, milk, carbohydrates, vegetables and fruits is generally 1:0.6:0.9:0.3.
However, normal people cannot develop muscle definition quickly by eating like this.
Apparently the real reason lies with the symbiotic worms in their bodies.
Symbiotes have the ability to automatically shape the host, and also regulate the body's fat, protein, muscle, blood sugar, electrolytes, hormones, etc.
Even if the host sits in the office all day, the symbionts will carry out cell movement according to the daily routine without affecting the host's health, thus allowing the host to maintain a certain amount of exercise invisibly.
Of course, the body shaping does not turn a person into a muscular man like a bodybuilder.
Because the Western-style muscular man is a morbid aesthetic.
The Sports and Medical Departments of Homo Sapiens were very aware of this, so they directly revised the bodybuilding standards and changed them to Oriental bodybuilding.
From the genes evolved by humans, we can actually know that humans cannot maintain a body full of tendons like their close relatives, gorillas.
This is the result of natural selection, because too much muscle, although it means strong explosive power, also means very high energy consumption.
Musclemen have very poor endurance, even worse than ordinary people.
Without food, the muscular people will soon starve to death, followed by ordinary people, and finally the fat people.
Although Homo sapiens have no shortage of food, it does not mean that they will not encounter sudden crises.
Therefore, in terms of body shaping, the main thing is to avoid being overweight and maintain a reasonable ratio of muscle and fat. The abdominal muscles of most new humans do not have obvious contours, which is for the sake of health.
Don’t think that well-defined abdominal muscles are a good thing. In fact, well-defined abdominal muscles will not only lead to poor endurance, but also put pressure on the spine, which may cause spinal diseases.
After all, humans are upright apes, not gorillas that walk on all fours, and the spine bears a lot of the weight of the human upper body.
Overtraining and over-shaping will only lead to a decrease in physical endurance and leave hidden injuries, which are likely to erupt when you get older.
Many bodybuilders and Muay Thai fighters do not live long because of excessive training and shaping.
The new humans don't need too much explosive power. After all, no matter how strong the human body's explosive power is, can it exceed biological armor and exoskeleton armor?
On the contrary, endurance is more important than explosive power.
…
Hulu and others naturally did not know this secret, so they generally believed that it was the influence of diet and exercise.
After finishing everything in the lunch box, Hulu picked up the oolong tea and drank it all in one gulp.
"Phew! So comfortable!"
Suddenly the sky outside the window darkened.
Broken Finger put down his chopsticks in surprise: "Huh? Is it going to rain?"
"How is that possible? The sky was clear just now." Hulu shook his head, then walked to the window and looked up at the sky.
He wiped his eyes subconsciously, then widened his eyes: "So big..."
"What's so big? Did you see a beautiful woman ?" a young man teased.
Hulu turned around and said, "There is a huge airship in the sky..."
Soon other immigrants also noticed the abnormality in the sky and stood by the windows looking up at the sky.
A huge airship flew quickly over the immigrant cruise ship.
This airship is a Sperm Whale-class transport airship produced by the Motor Island Airship Company.
It is over 1,500 meters long, 160 meters high, 132 meters wide, and carries a 15,000-ton transport cabin.
This voyage, also the first flight of this type of airship, went directly from the north of Mada Island through the Gulf of Aden, then entered the Red Sea, and then entered the hinterland of the Suez region along the Southern Canal.
In terms of climate and terrain conditions, the Mediterranean coast and the Sahara region are the most suitable areas for low-altitude airship flights.
After all, the Sahara Desert, with little rain or snow in a year and a flat surface, is extremely conducive to airship navigation.
Soon the Sperm Whale 001 airship flew over the cruise ship and headed towards Gobi City.
The Sperm Whale class has a decent speed, with a cruising speed of 220 to 280 kilometers per hour and a maximum speed of 350 to 380 kilometers.
If there is a tailwind, not only will the speed be faster, but a lot of fuel can also be saved.
This speed is basically about 10 times that of a cruise ship.
And a payload of 15,000 tons is actually not small.
Passing by the sperm whale airship made Hulu and others look forward to the upcoming journey even more.
After chatting in the restaurant for more than 40 minutes, Hulu felt a little sleepy: "You guys chat first, I'm going to take a nap. If you have anything, just call me directly."
"Go! Good afternoon!"
"See you this afternoon!"
Hulu returned to his family suite, said hello to his family, and then lay down on the bed and fell into a deep sleep.
And on the other side.
Sperm Whale 001 appeared over the port of Gobi City.
The reason why it did not appear above the airport is that the airport has no way to park the airship, and it would easily affect the takeoff and landing of aircraft.
Therefore, Sperm Whale 001 stopped over ports along the way.
There are many temporary stacking areas for containers in the port, and there is a self-unloading crane in the cargo hold of the airship.
The height can be lowered to about 100 to 120 meters from the ground, and then the container can be lifted down or lifted up by a dump crane.
If you really want to find a suitable parking area, you can only find some large areas of wasteland and lakes to park large airships.
And what is the most abundant in the Suez region?
Of course, there are the most deserts.
There is a large gravel desert to the southwest of Gobi City, which is large enough to park large airships.
After replenishing fuel, water and food at the port, the airship crossed the Nile River and flew to a nearby desert to anchor and prepare for maintenance.
This huge monster was seen not only by the people of Gobi City, but also by many people in Kaodeonbu City, which was adjacent to Gobi City.
In the sunset, the 160-meter-high Sperm Whale No. 001 looked like a mountain lying not far away, bringing the night to Kaudumbo half an hour earlier.
The power of human creation once again shocked these devout believers.
For many locals, although they know about industry and many people also know about airships, they have never felt so intuitively the grandeur that blocks out the sky and the sun.
