Chapter 992: Qinggang Falls, the First Industrial Transition!

Under the increasingly dark sky, tens of thousands of wanderers clung to the bottom of the lightning wall, watching the black and gray shaking in the distance in fear.

Unlike yesterday, the appearance of the undead gathering this time was even more terrifying.

Those ashes seemed to be held up by an invisible hand, floating back and forth in the air, and finally gathered into human figures standing.

Rows and rows.

The military formations formed by the undead were horizontal and vertical, and extremely neat.

They did not make any sound, but this momentum had already made many people breathless.

"Oh no, they seem to have weapons today!"

"Why, my God, these undead have really evolved weapons???"

"It's just cold weapons, they definitely won't be the opponents of those mole guys on the wall, right?"

"It's hard to say, they almost flattened the industrial zone yesterday without weapons, and today they have these things"

"God bless, where did these demons come from!"

""

Yesterday, hundreds of thousands of undead were still attacking with bare hands.

But today, they suddenly had different styles of melee cold weapons in their hands.

There were spears, short knives, sledgehammers, and bows and arrows!

With the evolution of long-range attack capabilities, these guys' impact capabilities will soon reach a new level.

Yesterday, they could only barely resist the Qinggang Guards who almost lost the defense. It seems that they are in big trouble!

However, at this moment.

The gate of the lightning wall opened, and more than a dozen teams of soldiers wearing exoskeleton armor walked out.

Seeing these people, the wanderers subconsciously dodged to the side, fearing that they would accidentally collide with each other.

However, what surprised them was.

These soldiers who came out were not arrogant at all, and their faces were no longer domineering.

Especially the leader, his face was even more rippled with a false smile.

Looking around, under the gaze of countless wanderers, he took the loudspeaker tied to his waist and put it to his mouth:

"See, those monsters, those undead!"

"They are our enemies, invaders who want to trample on our homes!"

"They are the real termites of this city, far more evil than the Atomic Church on the blue planet!"

To be fair, the captain's "condemnation" did not sound powerful.

Especially when the word "we" was used, many wanderers present could not help but curse inwardly.

Too shameless, worthy of being a mole man.

When they caught everyone here a few days ago, I didn't hear them use such words once.

When they bullied the wanderers at will these days, I didn't see these mole men really regard the people present as us.

Why are they talking about "us" now?

Is it possible to let a group of wanderers act as a death squad to resist those terrifying undead?

In an instant, many people present moved back slightly, and the chains made a crackling sound on the ground.

The reason why I chose not to resist before.

It was to survive!

If the mole guys really force everyone to fight the undead head-on, it would be equivalent to letting everyone present die.

In this case, it is better to choose to fight them.

At least these mole guys only have one life, and they can't be resurrected infinitely like the undead.

"Stop your actions, silence! Silence!"

Seeing that everyone around him began to retreat, the exoskeleton captain hurriedly shouted anxiously.

Now, he didn't dare to keep the secret any longer, and went straight to the point:

"Yes, the commander wants you to help fight the undead, but it's not free!"

"As long as you stop them, no, as long as you are willing to join our team, you will be free!"

"You can remove the shackles on your feet, get a full meal, get new weapons, and even stay here to become a resident of the Sunny Harbor Shelter!"

"Yes, as long as you step into this gate now, after tonight you will no longer be a wandering cockroach in this city. You have a formal identity, the formal identity of the strongest shelter in the entire city."

"We won't force anyone, you have 30 minutes to consider."

He said a long string in one breath, choking the captain to cough repeatedly.

But it was visible to the naked eye that the wandering teams that were just leaving suddenly stopped in place.

Wait.

As long as you participate in the battle, you can become a resident of the Sunny Harbor Shelter and become a mole man?

Many people's faces flashed with deep surprise.

For more than two hundred years since the post-war era, the reason why each shelter has rarely experienced internal strife and has always maintained a very terrifying cohesion is that it relies on the blood inheritance of no outsiders.

In fact, not only underground bunkers do not allow outsiders to join, but even some medium and large gathering places of a certain size have very strict assessments for those who join.

Not to mention that wanderers want to join, even adventurers with special skills will go through layers of review.

But now, as long as you participate in this battle, you can get the status of a resident of the Sunny Harbor Shelter?

This super pie that fell from the sky.

The meaning is roughly similar to a wandering boy on Earth who was cold and hungry hiding in a smelly alley to avoid the rain.

Suddenly, a Rolls-Royce stopped in front of him, and a billionaire walked down from it.

The rich man did not act arrogantly, but bowed down kindly and said:

As long as you are willing to go back with me, you can live the same life as me in the future.

"Really?"

The will of the wanderers is not as strong as imagined.

After all, their lives were originally dependent on the mole man.

The only difference between them and the plunderers is that they are less oppressed.

Now they can become residents of the shelter, even if they have to face the terrifying undead

"Of course it's true, this is the order issued by the commander. Now just walk into that door and the shackles on your feet will be opened immediately!"

Seeing that his bewitching effect took effect, the exoskeleton captain struck while the iron was hot,

"We have prepared hot meals and meat porridge, smell it quickly, the fragrance is about to float out."

"In addition, we have prepared a set of suitable combat uniforms and weapons for everyone. Believe me, that thing is a hundred times more powerful than the antiques you used before. Even the undead will never be able to pass through the firepower line!"

Food, armor, weapons!

A series of temptations became the last straw that broke the camel's back.

As the first team of wanderers could not help but walk into the city gate, they cried out in surprise.

In a flash, tens of thousands of people who were still hesitating were overwhelmed and rushed to the city gate like crazy.

"Damn, I've been hungry for several days, and finally I can have a full meal."

"Yes, even if I die here tonight, it's pretty good to die as a mole man."

"Hahaha, I will also be a mole man in the future, no, I will be a resident of the shelter in the future."

"If anyone dares to scold a mole man, I will be the first to get angry with him."

"Thank you, commander, you are really the most kind and kind person in the world~"

"Don't squeeze me, don't squeeze me!!"

It was dusk, and it was dark.

At midnight, a huge fire ignited in the entire Qinggang City, and the sky seemed to be rising as if the sun had risen.

The mist was dyed a dreamlike and sad red by the fire, floating over the city.

The ashes of the undead leaped up from the ground with the wind, dancing in the flames, and finally rolled up waves of black vortices and disappeared into the night sky.

The top of the Iron Stone Mountain behind the Tianyuan Underground City.

Su Mo stood quietly, admiring this peaceful and peaceful "beautiful scene".

It's over.

On the second day after the return disaster, the seemingly invincible Qinggang Shelter was defeated.

No, perhaps it can't be called a war.

From the beginning, this was not a conventional battle, but more like a one-sided destruction and massacre.

Those undead who can stand up and revive from the ground have no possibility of being defeated, even the powerful tactical nuclear weapons can only slightly stop their progress.

Unless you escape and escape to a place where they can't chase you, there is a slight possibility of survival.

And this happens to be the fatal flaw of the mole man.

Unable to move, unable to leave.

Under such circumstances, those sturdy bunkers have become the biggest obstacle.

"It's a pity for that industrial zone. I don't know how much manpower and material resources were spent on its construction. The expensive superconducting energy transmission network alone is worth more than a dozen Red Spider tanks."

"Now it's all destroyed!"

Feng Long, who stopped to check, sighed, but his tone was full of gloating.

In today's Tianyuan Territory, the Red Spider tank has become the latest price measurement.

According to Sean's valuation before he left, all the things on the surface in the entire Tianyuan Territory can only replace one and a half Red Spider tanks.

By comparison, you can know the value of the industrial zone of Qinggang Shelter.

And this is just the most basic thing.

What makes Su Mo also regretful is the mature machinery and equipment in the industrial zone. That thing is huge and heavy, and the predator can't bring it out with the flesh at all. Now it has all been burned to ashes by the fire and explosion.

But it doesn't matter. Tianyuan Territory didn't get this thing to develop industry, and the other party also suffered a lot. It's unknown how long it will take to recover.

The territory has recently made great progress in its industrial level under the stimulation of the reproduction plan.

In particular, the account of the underground city has received several waves of dividends in a row. Su Mo took it out and held a second large-scale investment meeting, injecting capital into more than a dozen projects of different refined industries.

Under this stimulation, it can be seen from the fact that the original industrial zone location is not enough that the industrial level development prospects of the territory are now very promising.

Of course, this rough stimulation method is not without disadvantages.

It is very obvious that all villagers have recently reduced their work efficiency to a certain extent under high-intensity work.

From the initial 90%, it has dropped all the way to about 50%.

In the past, it was rare to hear villagers complaining in the corner, and everyone had a smile on their face.

But now, frowning has become the mainstream phenomenon before going to bed every night.

Faced with heavy work with no visible rewards, if there were no contribution points reward and the stimulation of living in the underground city, it would not be surprising for many people's work efficiency to drop to 30%.

It's time to slow down and take a break.

It has been determined that the rats in the city will not be able to launch a dimensionality reduction attack on the territory for a long time.

Su Mo plans to open up a second village farther away from Sunny Harbor City based on Hope Village.

Just like the Hope City in the future ruins, which focuses on people's livelihood, and the Tianyuan City, which focuses on military affairs.

The current Hope Village must develop both the people's livelihood economy and agricultural planting.

If industrial development is mixed in, it will be difficult to manage it, not to mention how difficult it is to manage. It is very difficult to issue support policies.

Therefore, it is necessary to create a place like the Qinggang Industrial Zone immediately.

These current enterprises will become the basis for the industrialization of the territory.

Although being away from the increasingly prosperous villages in the short term will bring certain pressure on the transportation of raw materials and the construction of supporting facilities, in the long run, the benefits of resisting these pressures are considerable.

And if the moles in Qinggang City really attack, even if Hope Village becomes the center of the battlefield, another industrial zone can provide firepower support and resource input continuously.

In addition, the fishman tribe is about to pass the most difficult period and usher in a small outbreak in the first stage.

Su Mo is looking forward to these little fishmen who work hard in the future ruins, showing stronger infrastructure capabilities under stimulation, and quickly promoting the infrastructure of the territory.

"Liu Lu traded us another 200 kilograms of cotton. It seems that he has been doing well in the Pingtan Shelter during this period. In addition, he also wants us to do him a favor and get rid of a group of people at a suitable time and location."

"As for the reward, he said that he can provide us with four abandoned industrial equipment, one of which is very likely to be the motor manufacturing equipment we need now, which can produce high-speed permanent magnet motors."

"In terms of material procurement, the list he gave is that he needs 200 rifles, 10,000 62mm bullets and a small amount of other caliber bullets, 100 grenades, 8 RPG rocket launchers, etc. It seems that he wants to do something in the Pingtan Shelter."

The person in charge of connecting with Liu Lu is Bao Lei.

This later famous leader of the Tianjian Group is still good at doing things.

I don't know how he instigated it, but Liu Lu has become more and more daring recently, and he even dared to attack other people in the same shelter so arrogantly. He doesn't take Liehu seriously.

"Okay, if he wants to make trouble, we will support him unconditionally."

"The only thing to pay attention to is not to let him involve us, forget it, let's get involved."

I originally thought about not offending Pingtan Shelter right away, but when I thought about doing this kind of thing too much, it would inevitably be exposed.

So, Su Mo didn't care so much.

Anyway, the two families are so close, look at Liehu's previous statement.

Sooner or later, the two sides will have further contact and friction, so it's better to support Liu Lu to create civil strife now.

When the fight really breaks out, there will also be a surprise force that can ambush us so as not to fall into a passive position.

"Well, let's get ready to start."

"Starting tomorrow, it's time to set off the first industrial leap in our Tianyuan territory!"
