Chapter 621: Base in the Mountains

A base with 800,000 people?

Wang Tao was very surprised. He thought it was a medium-sized base with tens of thousands of people, but he didn't expect it to be a super-large survivor base with 800,000 people!

This is definitely a pleasant surprise. The more survivors there are, the better it will be for the entire human camp.

As for the Red Maple Base saying "their base is the only human gathering place in the world, and their residents are the last batch of humans in the world", this kind of thing can also be understood. One is to create a feeling that they should cherish the base, and the other is that they really didn't find other survivor bases. For example, Wang Tao, at the beginning, he had doubts whether all the humans in the world except him were dead...

Anyway, it's a great thing to have such a large survivor base survive until now. I have to talk to Changhe Base later, maybe I will organize some people to communicate or something...

Wang Tao asked Zhan Liang some information about the Red Maple Base and had a general understanding of it.

In short, this is very similar to the Red Maple Base and Changhe Base. They were all built by the government and managed by the army.

However, the number of soldiers in the Red Maple Base is not as many as that in the Changhe Base. Unlike the Changhe Base, which has six major legions, they only have one military force here. But this is a full-staffed regular army, much stronger than the military of the Silver Snake Base.

Therefore, the military in the Red Maple Base has a strong power, such as city defense, law enforcement, resource departments, etc., which are all under the control of the military.

Of course, as the superpowers become stronger and stronger, the power of the superpowers is also gradually expanding. They have formed a superpower business alliance. It is called a business alliance, but in fact, those who understand it understand that they want to check and balance the military.

However, the military of the Red Maple Base is different from the military in other places. Wang Tao has seen the military forces of many bases before. They are generally conservative and cautious about the use of crystal cores.

The military of the Red Maple Base is different. They seem to be more adventurous and more visionary-they have used crystal cores a long time ago. At that time, they used thermal weapons to kill a large number of zombies and obtained a lot of crystal cores. Then they arranged people to experiment and found that these crystal cores could improve their strength. Finally, they began to use crystal cores extensively, making many soldiers become superpowers.

The military of the Red Maple Base is actually more like superpowers than superpowers. When other survivors were still hiding at home and worrying about tomorrow's food, they had already begun to have superpowers in large quantities.

So there are many superpowers in the military, and they are all very strong.

Now some of the small conflicts between them are not so much conflicts between the military and superpowers as conflicts between old superpowers and new superpowers.

After all, a base is so big and resources are limited. The predecessors occupied more, and the descendants naturally had less. As the strength of these descendants increased, they were obviously not satisfied with this.

However, the strength of the Red Maple Base military is very strong. Even if no thermal weapons are used, and only the strength of superpowers is used, the commercial alliance may not be able to defeat the military. After all, the alliance has different people's minds, and it is impossible to really put down all vigilance and join forces. The military is a solid block, so the gap naturally emerges.

Of course, Zhan Liang doesn't know much about the things between the military and the alliance. These are all public information. As for more and more secret information, he doesn't know. He only knows that everything is good in the base and is developing steadily. Even if they don't come out to find supplies, they won't starve to death. It's just that they can't get stronger in the base. If they want to get stronger, they can only come out.

The Fiery Gang where Zhan Liang is is very famous in the Red Maple Base and is one of the top ten forces.

The difference between ordinary forces and top forces lies in whether there are fifth-level awakeners in their forces.

The leader of the Fiery Gang is a fifth-level awakener, and Zhan Liang said that he is very strong.

As for their team, they are all the core layer of the Fiery Gang. After all, they are also third- and fourth-level awakeners. Awakeners are very rare in the Red Maple Base and have a high status. They are the kind of people who can violate the rules of the base...

However, when asked how strong the strongest person in their base is, Zhan Liang said that he didn't know how strong the strongest person in the base is, but it is absolutely incomparable to Wang Tao! Wang Tao's strength in their Red Maple Base is definitely the best!

Wang Tao did not comment on this point, nor did he elaborate.

"The Red Maple Base is in front!"

Suddenly, Zhan Liang pointed to a mountain road not far away.

The Red Maple Base is somewhat similar to the Silver Snake Base, and both are built in the mountains.

The only difference is that the Silver Snake Base uses the Silver Snake Tree as a barrier, and their base is hidden in the mountains.

The Red Maple Base directly uses several mountains as a barrier, and their base is firmly surrounded by these mountains. After the end of the world, the army took over here and made some transformations. After various transformations, it was built as solid as a rock.

Following the direction pointed by Zhan Liang, Wang Tao has seen the mountains and the transformed mountain walls, and he was amazed:

"There is something!"

The location of the Red Maple Base is indeed very good, and it is indeed surrounded by several mountains. The mountains here are very steep, and there are many stone mountains, which looks very safe.

Then the military made some improvements here, such as blowing up the already steep mountain walls so that zombies couldn't climb up; for example, the steep mountain walls were filled with various spikes and broken blades. Even if there are zombies that have the ability to climb up, they may get stuck and be unable to climb up at all. Even powerful zombies cannot shake such a high mountain... It feels a bit like a paradise.

As can be seen from the sky, this base has only two entrances, the front door and the back door. These two gates are made of thick steel. They look more imposing than the gates of Changhe Base, and their defense will definitely not be weak.

As for the space on top of them, there is nothing hidden, it is just exposed.

When Wang Tao asked Zhan Liang if there were any flying zombies going to their base, Zhan Liang was suddenly confused and said:

"Boss, can flying zombies fly that high?"

"..."

Wang Tao forgot that the outer perimeter of this base was not a man-made city wall, but a thousand-meter-high mountain! Flying zombies don't fly that high, and Wang Tao has never seen them before.

Because zombies also have a desire to eat. If they fly too high, they will not be able to see the situation on the ground. After all, most zombies have poor eyesight, and they do not have eagles, so they cannot fly higher than mountains.

So again, the location of Hongfeng Base was chosen very well. As for the only drawback, it might be that this base is too small.

After all, this is a city surrounded by mountains, and the space inside is limited. Therefore, the buildings here are basically multi-story structures. From the sky, you can clearly see the stacked houses inside. This is a three-dimensional city.

The golden eagle flew so high that Wang Tao could only see some buildings, but nothing closer could be seen. Flying high is because Wang Tao is afraid that the golden eagle will cause misunderstandings. It would be bad if the red maple base sounds the alarm and some misunderstandings are caused.

So Wang Tao planned to ask the people from the Fire Gang to report first. After all, it was a visit, so it was appropriate to be polite.

At this time, Chen Haolin's car had arrived outside the front door. Since the road back was getting more and more remote, and Wang Tao occasionally took action to clean up enemies, they didn't have to worry about encountering enemies that they couldn't deal with on the way, so they returned home faster than ever before.

With a rumbling sound, the door opened. Chen Haolin's car immediately drove in.

Not long after, Wang Tao saw someone waving a red flag on a building near the base gate. This was a secret signal between Chen Haolin and Wang Tao, indicating that he had notified the base that a guest was arriving on a golden eagle. The base would not immediately sound the alarm or launch any attack on Wang Tao, allowing Wang Tao to land with peace of mind.

"Go down."

Chirp——

The golden eagle landed slowly.

Wang Tao has already seen that a troop has gathered at the gate. There are not many of them, but they are all brightly dressed. They are obviously not here to fight, but to welcome them.

In addition to this army, many cars can be seen driving towards the door. This should be people from other forces getting the news.

Wang Tao was somewhat surprised, because the news was conveyed quite quickly! In just a few minutes, the news of his arrival seemed to have spread throughout the Red Maple Base.

You know, electronic equipment cannot be used now. If they can react so quickly, they should have other communication channels.

As the golden eagle landed, the onlookers below finally saw the golden eagle, and all of them suddenly exclaimed. Especially when they felt the undisguised aura of a fifth-level lord on the golden eagle, they almost wanted to worship. .

Obviously, they have never seen such a big and powerful mutant beast, let alone anyone who can conquer such a mutant beast.

In the end, the golden eagle landed on the top of the mountain, because it was too big, and the space inside this base was very compact. When the base was built, we did not expect that such a huge mutant beast would come. The only few pieces The open space was still crowded with onlookers, and the golden eagle had no place to stay. It's okay to park on the mountain. There are people on duty here, and there are also stairs and elevators connecting the base.

"And the elevator? What is it powered by?"

After Wang Tao jumped off the golden eagle, he looked at the things that looked like outdoor elevators not far away and became curious.

"Is this considered bioenergy? Anyway, it uses a special vine to control the lifting..."

Zhan Liang scratched his head and said.

He doesn't know much about this aspect, so long as it can be used, he won't get hung up on the principles. After all, there are specialties in the art, and he is a combatant, mainly fighting and collecting supplies.

"To be able to build such a big base, you really need two tools."

Wang Tao nodded silently.

At this time, from Wang Tao's angle, he happened to see an elevator rising. There were several dark green vines on the top of the elevator. These vines were squirming rapidly. They were obviously the ones pulling the elevator up. However, the speed of its rise was just too fast. It's very fast, not very even, and a little wobbly... I guess this experience isn't very good.

Boom!

Although the elevator had springs as shock absorbers, the elevator still hit the mechanism reserved on the mountain wall visibly to the naked eye.

Click——

The elevator door was opened manually from the inside, and a group of people walked out, some holding their heads and some holding their waists.

This is not their first time riding this thing, but each time they have a different and uncomfortable experience.

After all, if you expect these less flexible creatures to be as strict as machines, that's impossible. It's good enough to make them work obediently, and you can't ask for too much.

"Hello Mr. Wang! Welcome to the Red Maple Base!"

This group of people is still some distance away from Wang Tao, and the leader has already extended his hand with a smile on his face, "I am Xiang Bo, the mayor of Hongfeng Base..."

The mayor of the Red Maple Base is a kind-faced, somewhat fat, middle-aged man. He looks harmless, but in fact he has little fighting ability - he is only a third-level man, not even an awakened person.

That basically confirms that he, the mayor, is an agent. Otherwise, with his strength, it would be impossible to control the entire Hongfeng base. The people around him were not very strong, not even an awakened one.

"Hello, I'm Wang Tao." Wang Tao stretched out his hand to shake his hand, and then briefly introduced Ding Yuqin and others, "This is my companion..."

"Hello! This is..."

Xiang Bo also introduced some of the people around him, who are all managers of the Red Maple Base City Hall.

After both parties got to know each other, Xiang Bo and his party all looked at the golden eagle, with curiosity that could not be concealed in their eyes. He immediately asked:

"Mr. Wang, is this your mount? It must be at level five, right?"

Xiang Bo was only at the third level, and his perception of the Golden Eagle's strength was not very clear. He only knew that it was very strong, stronger than any zombies or monsters he had ever seen. Of course, he has basically been working in the base since he came here, and he hasn't seen too many enemies since then. Their base is in the mountains, just like a paradise, and there are usually no enemies.

"Fifth level lord."

Wang Tao didn't hide it either.

"hiss--"

Even though Xiang Bo and his party had received news about Chen Haolin, they still felt a little unreal when they heard Wang Tao's admission in person.

After all, the mount is a fifth-level lord. How strong must Wang Tao be? Could it be level six? Does anyone really get promoted so quickly? Their base currently doesn’t even have a sixth level one...

"Mr. Wang, how about I take you around our base... As for your partner, he may not have a place to stay, so he has to stay here, but I can provide a lot of food..."

Xiang Bo scratched his head and said.

"Don't worry about it, it will have something to eat on its own."

Wang Tao left some nutrient solution for the golden eagle.

"Okay! Then please come with me..."
