Chapter 1123 War Preparations, the Bustling Giant Tree Root Sea Area!

Carrying a true eye, Zero went somewhere to absorb it slowly.

According to it, the parts inside are very delicate and need a lot of time to disassemble before they can be integrated.

Su Mo was not in a hurry and put away the other two and returned to the office.

Hiss

The higher you go in the dungeon, the more obvious the feeling of cold air is.

As early winter has completely taken its steps, the temperature outside has dropped to around minus five degrees during the day, and it will plummet to around minus fifteen degrees at night.

Because the heating pipes have not been laid yet, the whistling cold wind coming out of the ventilation ducts immediately took away the few temperatures, making the temperature on the second floor only maintain at about zero degrees.

I don’t know if the production capacity of the garment factory has kept up?

Su Mo thought so, so he simply put on his cotton clothes and walked out of the dungeon to inspect it.

He walked out of the gate.

As far as the field of vision could reach, the ground was already withered and pale, without the green vitality of the past.

At present, plants that can adapt to the winter in the wasteland have not been developed yet, and the plantation is basically closed.

The only ones that are still in operation are a few greenhouses that were built not long ago near the underground city.

Greenhouse No. 1, named "New Discovery Farm".

Several special plants brought back from the Red Core Shelter and plants traded from the tree people were cultivated here to absorb nutrients and grow vigorously.

It is worth mentioning that the rice leaf mother plant has now been transplanted.

Before, the territory could not satisfy this guy because of the fertility of the land, so it could only be planted on the fruit tree mountain.

But with the successful development of various fertilizers, the land in the greenhouse has now become the most suitable place for plant growth.

As soon as he entered the greenhouse, Su Mo saw the mother plant swaying slightly in the center, as if welcoming his arrival.

"Well done!"

Looking at the grand scene of thriving growth in front of him, Su Mo nodded with a smile like an old father on his face.

Wanwei Spore is the first plant cultivated in the greenhouse, and its reputation is extremely good.

The village didn't have to worry about pricing, as the chef apprentices had already raised the price on their own initiative.

The profit was enough to cover the expenses of three to five greenhouses.

"It's a pity that the underground drainage pipes in Qinggang City are all broken. The previous wave of rain caused water to accumulate underground, so we couldn't open the greenhouse of the Red Core Shelter."

The person in charge of the greenhouse, 'Mist Tractor', was full of regret.

The huge water pressure forced all the underground entrances of the Red Core Shelter to be closed.

Even if the old Taoist had drawn a route map, there was no way to send people through the previous entrance to find more new plants.

As for going down from the top of the Red Core Shelter.

The scavengers went there twice with courage, but they didn't know what happened. There were too many radioactive beasts gathered around the shelter.

Before they reached the door of the passage down, they were persuaded to leave by the massive radioactive beasts.

Moreover, these slightly intelligent beasts seemed to regard the 'Red Core' as their base camp and would not let any human beings get close.

Before there is a large-scale combat power cluster and suitable weapons, we can only temporarily delay the pace of exploration.

"Don't be so anxious. When the disaster is over, the mole guys in the southern suburbs will help us clean up the radiation beasts."

Su Mo looked at the young man covered with mud with a smile.

No wonder he chose this ID. He is a human excavator. He is so enthusiastic about farming and plants.

"Take good care of these plants. When the time is right, they will give you a surprise."

"Don't worry, lord, they are my life!"

The mist tractor hammered his chest neatly and continued with a beaming face.

"After this winter, I can guarantee that there will be no farmer route players in any territory with a higher level than us."

Farming is a business with basically no threshold.

Although choosing a farmer can gain some experience in the process, it is also equivalent to giving up the buff in combat.

Before there is a super-large territory that can provide shelter, basically no individual players in small and medium-sized territories will choose it.

And such a route is not mainstream, and no territory is willing to spend time and energy to cultivate it.

It is in Tianyuan territory that the farmer route will not be abandoned and will always invest funds and manpower.

"It seems that the next route advancement can consider farmers."

Su Mo took his eyes off the mist tractor and thought about it, and then inspected the remaining greenhouses.

Like him, almost every farmer route player's enthusiasm is extremely high, with the most primitive love and happiness in their eyes, and their eyes are shining when they mention planting and plant growth.

It is difficult to see the deep imprint of the concrete forest and high-rise buildings on them.

But who can imagine that this is only a year.

The happiness that cannot be possessed in modern times has actually been realized in this barren and dangerous wasteland.

Is this the so-called liberation of nature?

After painting a big pie for all the farmer route players and promising to focus a certain proportion of resources in the future.

Amid a cheer, Su Mo immediately left the greenhouse and walked towards Hope Village.

As the cultural and economic center of the territory.

In the vast wilderness on all sides, the size of the village has increased more than five times compared to last winter.

The 8-kilometer-long fence exudes a faint silver glow.

Although it cannot provide much effective defense against the enemy, the sense of security it brings allows everyone to sleep soundly at night.

Considering the flood disaster when the snow melted last winter, the village now not only has horizontal and vertical concrete drainage channels, but also buried a lot of drainage pipes underground to divert water to the nearby river.

In addition, the biggest change in Hope Village is that the number of private shops has begun to increase.

Walk into the village.

Skipping those public facilities where people come and go, the shops opened by private individuals have hung up new wooden signs.

‘Shantou Man Chinese Restaurant’

‘Second Battalion Commander’s Italian Noodles’

‘Wasteland Happy House (Massage Shop)’

‘Flat-Headed Brother Barber Shop’

‘Penguin Farm-Specializing in Fresh Vegetables’

‘Swing Bar’

‘’

Some absurd signs may appear a bit abrupt in modern metropolises, but in the wasteland, they can relax people’s tense spirits.

It seems that in order to form a wasteland culture different from that of the earth, the facilities and structures in the shops are also very different.

For example, this "Shantou Cave Chinese Restaurant".

The decoration inside is indeed not much different from that of the primitive cave. All that can be seen with the naked eye are rough stone tables and stone benches.

The billowing smoke from cooking is constantly sweeping out from inside. It is not an exaggeration to say that it is the "Fire Cloud Cave" that entertains all the monsters.

Covering his mouth and nose, he walked into the restaurant. Taking advantage of the fact that there were not many people in the morning, Su Mo casually ordered three Sichuan dishes.

Fried pork with peppers, mapo tofu, and fish-flavored eggplant.

The price is 4 copper coins, which is equivalent to two days' wages for ordinary workers. It is not cheap.

I don't know if it was because he saw that the lord was coming, the chef who cooked almost used all his skills.

The taste is really good.

After eating four bowls of nearly two kilograms of rice in a row, Su Mo stopped with satisfaction.

Speaking of which, with the overall improvement of the player route recently, the speed of material consumption has also greatly exceeded expectations.

At the beginning, it was enough for the female residents to consume 300g of raw rice a day.

But now, this number has doubled to about 600g.

The average consumption of male residents is even more amazing, reaching about 1500g per person.

Considering that the level of players will continue to increase in the future, the consumption will also change from quantitative change to qualitative change.

Calculated at this rate.

If the number of people in the territory rises to 50,000, the food resources in the warehouse may only be enough for about half a year.

Of course, half a year is enough.

Now the plantation has been opened up and the difficult period at the beginning has been passed.

When winter is over and spring plowing comes, a wave of harvest will make the warehouse full again.

"Lord, can you give me an evaluation?"

Seeing that Su Mo finally finished eating, the chef came over eagerly and pointed to the residents who were curiously looking outside.

Turning his head, Su Mo was immediately happy.

I don't know when, the windows and doors of the Chinese restaurant were full of people.

Judging from their expressions, these guys must want to taste the same food as the Lord did last time.

"Well, good, keep up the good work, I'm optimistic about you!"

Patting the chef on the shoulder, Su Mo coughed lightly and walked through the crowd to leave the restaurant.

And less than a few seconds after he left, the crowd who were still waiting rushed in.

"Boss, the Lord's same, hurry up, I came first, give me first!"

"I can't afford it, so what, give me one too!"

"Do you want a plaque? For a meal, I will write down what the Lord just said for you, and you can hang it at the door of the store for safekeeping!"

"Damn it, when will the Lord come to my store to give a review?"

"Come on, you probably forgot that you opened a women's clothing store?"

""

In the midst of the noise, Su Mo shook his head slightly.

The abundance of materials brings not only prosperity to various industries, but also spiritual abundance.

The more relaxed these little players in the territory are, the healthier the development of the territory is.

After walking around, Su Mo suddenly felt that his worries were completely unnecessary.

A year ago, the Hope Village, which had just taken shape, was an ordinary carriage that he had to manage.

Not only did he need to control the direction of the carriage, but he also had to take care of the horse's feelings and food.

Once there was any problem with the direction and the horse, it was possible to fall into the endless abyss.

But now, the Hope Village has unknowingly evolved to the level of a "steam train".

On the rails leading to the future, this steam train is moving forward firmly.

As the conductor, Su Mo needs to pay more attention to the fuel problem of the train and the "thieves" and "robbers" who may climb up at any time.

As for whether the passengers on the train can take care of themselves, this is no longer a point he needs to worry about.

"Time flies so fast"

Returning to the underground city with emotion, sitting behind the square table in the office, Su Mo's scattered eyes focused again.

The history of the past wars has been conveyed more than once.

Only internal stability is a necessary condition for the smooth implementation of the war.

If there were many enemies around Qinggang City, even if they knew that there were countless good things hidden in the Kyushu Great Rift Valley Research Base, the territory would not have the heart to go there.

Now, since winter has arrived, everything is on track.

Then we only need to wait until the weapons of the veterans are produced from the factory assembly line before we can set out on the expedition.

"Dare to use humans as test subjects?"

Su Mo felt that these Blue Star people might be a little brave, and their minds were confused by the stability of Blue Star for hundreds of years.

They thought that relying on powerful military force, they could have the authority at the top of the food chain and could do whatever they wanted.

But little did they know that the wasteland was actually a miniature version of the 'Dark Forest'.

Before the Blue Star people who showed their heads began to strike at the dimensionality reduction, their proud technology turned into a pile of scrap metal in an ordinary disaster when the game was launched.

In this case, when they exposed themselves, people higher up the food chain would definitely pay attention to them.

Even if the Tianyuan Territory did not take action, prehistoric monsters would emerge from the darkness and swallow them in the forest.

At the same time.

Just as Su Mo was studying the personnel configuration and equipment selection for the expedition, the sea station located in the giant tree root sea area welcomed a group of special guests.

"We made it in time. We finally got here before winter comes!"

"Is this the New World? It doesn't look like anything new."

"There are so many ships and people here. I haven't seen such a lively scene in a long time."

"Be careful. The world channel said that the post station is very chaotic now. Don't be sold and help count money."

"What are you afraid of? Someone really dares to attack our tundra tribe. They probably don't know what fear is."

"That's right. Let them know that we have been robbing pirates all the way here. I'm afraid their jaws will drop."

"Ahem, keep a low profile. The lord asked us not to make a fuss. We are pretending to be pigs and eating tigers!"

""

A fleet of 35 large and small ships slowly sailed from the depths of the sea, attracting the attention of many scattered people.

As one of the few excellent landing points in the northern coastal waters of the New World, the conditions in the Giant Tree Root Sea Area can be ranked in the top 50 even if you look at the entire New World.

The coastal waters here are deep and wide enough to accommodate large and small ships to anchor at will.

The natural giant tree root is shaped like a barrier, which can be unaffected by the monsoon from the ocean and always maintain a calm sea level.

The land to the coast is also a flat plain, so there is no need to worry about enemies ambushing at the entrance.

In addition, there are no powerful alien races around, and there is no trace of blue star people.

For individual players who plan to land from the north, nine out of ten will put the giant tree root in the first few choices.

However, this is for individual players.

Few, or basically no large fleets will choose to land at the giant tree root.

The reason is very simple.

Sufficient safety also means sufficient ordinariness. There are not many opportunities to find near the giant tree root sea area.

After a year of experience, humans in the deep sea have long lost most of their stable thoughts and began to realize the nature of the wasteland.

If you don't fight in the early stage, you will have to pay the price in the middle and late stages.

If you don't fight, you will fall into the abyss in the disasters of reincarnation again and again.

Landing from the giant tree root here can indeed guarantee safety, but if you fall behind in opportunities, you may be eliminated.

Therefore, this fleet consisting of 35 large and small boats can basically be regarded as the largest fleet in the Giant Tree Root Sea!
