Apocalyptic Starship

Chapter 171: Snow Speed

Life goes on, and Longshan Camp continues to operate in the heavy snow.

In order to improve efficiency and allow himself to concentrate on fighting, Rubik's Cube puts the manufacturing of engineering robots and mining vehicles first. All data uses the existing Longxing design standards. With engineering robots and mining vehicles, production capacity will be greatly improved and manpower can be freed up to do other things, and he can also let go of the camp construction project and focus on more things.

Engineering robots and mining vehicles cannot be produced on the production line. Rubik's Cube personally makes and assembles them one part at a time. Engineering robots are the same size as ordinary people. They have primary intelligent programs and can independently complete various production and manufacturing tasks. It is initially decided to make two. Judging from the current factory of Longshan Camp, two engineering robots are completely sufficient.

A few days later, when Zhang Xiaowen came to the factory, she found that there were two more robots, but they looked not a little different from Rubik's Cube.

With two professional engineering robots to help build mining vehicles, the speed is much faster. Anyway, there are abandoned vehicles, abandoned houses and abandoned equipment everywhere. Mining vehicles can collect enough metal materials without drilling, which saves a lot of processes. The simplified version of the mining vehicle can only travel on land, with off-road and defense functions. The vehicle is equipped with manipulators and other collection equipment, and there are four heavy machine guns around for self-protection. After all, the ability of humans to use weapons has improved a lot after the end of the world. It is not certain whether some idle people will attack mining vehicles. The weapon system is very important.

…………

After many days, all the construction work was finally completed, and the second mining vehicle slowly drove away from the workbench.

The mining vehicle has an intelligent program like a robot. After starting the program, it slowly drove out of the factory and appeared in the snow. It automatically opened the details of the nearby area transmitted by the magic cube to find places where materials may exist. The metal detection equipment was turned on, and two heavy large mining vehicles drove out of the camp. When passing by some inconspicuous metal objects, no matter how big or small, they were all collected. It can be said to be a good helper for thriftiness.

After the magic cube gave the engineering robot an order to make ammunition, it walked towards the big house in the camp.

Crunch~ Crunch~

The mechanical feet made a sound of squeezing snow when they stepped on the snow. When they walked to the icy area, six small auxiliary stabilizing machines like grippers popped out on both sides of the mechanical feet to help stabilize the body. If a machine slipped, it would be very embarrassing...

Pushing open the door, the Rubik's Cube walked into the hall, glanced to find Zhang Xiaowen's position, and walked towards her.

Zhang Xiaowen saw the Rubik's Cube walking towards her, raised the cup in her hand and shook it. The snow outside the window was white and the cold wind was whistling, while the house was steaming. Bored Zhang Xiaowen was sitting with two little rabbit sisters drinking milk tea. Of course, the milk tea was the normal milk tea without plastic particles. Sitting by the warm stove on a snowy day to drink milk tea, not many people in the end times can do it.

"Mofang, would you like a cup of peanut flavor?"

"I don't drink this kind of low-level liquid. I came here to tell you that I'm going to Shancheng County this afternoon to see if there are any living people and collect data on the activity of winter zombies."

"Oh? Go to Shancheng County? How to get there? In winter, no one clears the snow on the road, so it's quite difficult to walk. It's good to go and take a look. We have to find out the situation nearby. How about I go with you? We can deal with things together." After saying that, Zhang Xiaowen picked up a cup of hot milk tea and took a sip, not caring about what Mofang said about low-level liquid.

"I'll go by myself. I can drive faster on the snow. You just need to watch at home and watch out for any sneaky people. A few days ago, the guard robot outside the valley camp found several humans. It is suspected that they might be from other camps. Just pay more attention. If there are people with bad intentions, the restrictions on the use of robot weapons can be lifted."

"Okay, by the way, remember to bring some Shancheng County specialties when you come back. Xiaojing and Jiajia are in the stage of growing up and need to supplement their nutrition."

The magic cube nodded to indicate that he heard it, stretched out his mechanical hand and touched the hot stove. He didn't understand why the air conditioner could adjust the temperature. Why did he still burn the stove? Is it really just for psychological comfort as others said? Humans are really strange. If they don't understand, they don't think about it. They turn around and walk out of the big house with standard steps.

Walking outside the door, he bent down on the asphalt ground with residual snow, and with a few clicks, he transformed into a racing motorcycle. The engine roared, and he drove out of the camp gate along the swept path without slowing down.

Driving along the road with only animal footprints, we quickly found three routes to Shancheng County, two of which were provincial roads and one highway. After some thought, we decided to take the highway. Anyway, all three roads were congested, so why not take the flat and straight highway? Unfortunately, the flight thrusters were not suitable for long-distance flight, and now we could only rush to Shancheng County in the form of a motorcycle.

…………

Walking to the side of the highway, the Rubik's Cube broke through the fence of the highway and entered the highway area.

The Rubik's Cube was driving at high speed on the highway without any footprints. In order to facilitate driving on the snow, the Rubik's Cube also made several snow balance devices. With rolling snowflakes behind, it went straight to the county seat of Shancheng County, where Jiangcheng belongs, along the highway.

On the highway between the mountains, a racing motorcycle drove past quickly...

"Humans found, three kilometers ahead." The detection equipment suddenly found survivors.

The speeding Rubik's Cube was stunned. Three kilometers ahead? Isn't that a mountain tunnel? Could it be that these survivors are hiding in this tunnel to survive? Although the tunnel looks safe, once it is blocked, it is really difficult to escape. Perhaps, these survivors are attracted by the relatively warm temperature in the mountain tunnel in winter. If they stay outside, they would have been frozen to death in the cold night.

"Eleven survivors, including two, three elderly people and a young child. When the apocalypse broke out, these people may have gone out to travel with their families and finally hid here." Eleven green figures representing humans walked deep in the tunnel on the Rubik's Cube's screen. After thinking for a while, they turned around and drove from the lawn in the middle of the highway to the other side of the highway, and plunged into the dark mountain tunnel.

In the tunnel, more than ten cars were crowded together, and more than twenty zombies were trapped in the car, howling. Without food supplements, they were all as thin as specimens.

The speeding Rubik's Cube quickly transformed into a robot, and then the rapid inertia brought by the movement made its mechanical legs move over the roofs of cars, leaping over the obstacle area and landing with a few clicks and a series of sparks before turning into a motorcycle and continuing to drive. What the Rubik's Cube didn't notice was that there was a connecting passage between the two tunnels in the long cave on the highway. In the passage, several people were stunned...
