The road home from the wasteland becomes extremely long without Oreo's sled pulling it.
I relied on the strength of my feet to measure the distance of about a hundred miles, especially when I had to walk one foot deep and one foot shallow in the snow, and avoid obstacles hidden under the snow from time to time.
After resting and resting until noon, Somo had only walked more than half of the way.
In this regard, it was because Somo had been using the psionic water to restore his physical strength that he could travel at such a fast speed.
"I don't know how the earth tiger is doing. He left in a hurry last night and the base gate was not closed!"
After eating some pancakes and drinking some water, Somo set out on the road again when his physical strength was almost restored.
At this moment, the necessity of a good vehicle is fully realized.
Whether it is returning between two places or looking for my sister, we need to find or build a vehicle that can adapt to various terrains as soon as possible.
"The next vehicle design must fully take into account terrain adaptability, otherwise once it encounters harsh terrain, it will just lie down like a land tiger."
Dragging a slightly heavy pace, Somo's heart was full of "admiration" for Taketo Maeda who had been able to walk all night and braved the wind and snow to reach the shelter, as well as a series of deceased enemies.
That being said, as long as you have motivation in your heart, the road ahead is nothing!
However, before Sumo could cheer up and continue to move quickly, three sudden game panel prompts suddenly sounded in his ears.
[Record]: The "Small Single-Arm Excavator" card located in your storage space has been unlocked, please check and use it in time
[Record]: The card vehicle defaults to factory-new when summoned for the first time, and has full energy.
[Record]: A corresponding user manual is attached. I wish you a happy game~
"Is it time to jam the excavator? Can it be used?"
The joy of playing the game this time was a timely blessing.
Opening the game interface and looking at the unlocking messages sent three times in a row, Sumo looked surprised and quickly found the excavator card from the storage space.
Compared with the previous humble appearance, after the time limit was removed, the ordinary whiteboard cards were not filled with high-quality green light, but instead were filled with high-quality blue light.
At first glance, it looks extremely extraordinary.
"It seems that because of my outstanding performance in the second disaster, the game upgraded the quality of my cards for free? Is it a hidden benefit?"
"Furthermore, it makes sense that the card vehicles are full of fuel at the beginning. After all, it is like those people who put them twice. If the one-time vehicles they draw have no fuel, it is not a scam."
Compared to the system, the game panel is much more generous.
Without thinking too much, he took a look at the nearby terrain and came to a gentle slope. Sumo rubbed his hands slightly, and the excavator card shattered in his hands.
Wow!
Boom!
From the broken card, a foot-high golden light instantly poured out, and then turned into flowing water, spreading flat on the snow, occupying a large area of ground.
The golden light is like the magic cloth in the magician's hand, slowly spreading upward.
At the same time, under the golden light, the single-arm excavator slowly revealed its "unparalleled appearance"!
Powerful steel arms, crawler-type steering wheels, a luxurious cockpit with extremely high visibility, and a very eye-catching large piece on the fuselage:
No1!
"Good guy, the game panel is really fancy. An excavator gave me such a high-profile paint job!"
Different from ordinary khaki excavators, this excavator is full of luxury and symbolizes the honor of being the first person in the world.
The large black and white No1 print is not only not ugly, but makes the excavator look extremely domineering and full of style.
The game panel describes it as a small excavator, but it is not strictly small on earth.
Out of curiosity, Sumo once again opened the new excavator attributes and was immediately pleasantly surprised.
[Small single-arm excavator (excellent)]
[Description]: This small diesel backhoe excavator produced by a certain heavy machine has working methods such as trench end excavation, trench side excavation, straight line excavation, curve excavation, excavation at a certain angle, ultra-deep trench excavation and trench slope excavation.
[Complete machine weight]: 25,500kg
[Complete machine volume]: Upper width (3045mm), total height (4255mm), total width (3190mm), track ground length (3640mm)
[Bucket digging force]: 175kN
【Door Capacity】:1.3---1.5m3
[Rated power kW]:147/2100kW/rpm
[Walking speed (high/low) km/h]: 10.4-15.8km/h
[Climbing ability]:70%/35°
【special power】:
Fast movement: Excellent quality brings higher engine power and horsepower torque. When the excavator moves at full speed, it automatically adds an ultra-fast speed of 30km/h.
Infinite strength: Excellent quality brings stronger excavator arm strength, and the bucket digging force is doubled!
Immortal: The wear of the entire machine will slowly recover after the engine is stopped.
"Not bad, not bad. After upgrading to fine quality, both shovel capacity and basic attributes have been greatly improved."
"And the extra special ability, fast movement, is simply too practical!"
Although the crawler structure of the excavator is similar to that of a tank, in fact, the engine of the excavator determines that it is not much faster than a person walking.
An ordinary excavator, even at full speed and on rabbit gear, can only travel ten kilometers in an hour before it dies.
But with today's special ability bonus, as long as it is in full gear, it can run at a speed of 40km per hour, which is not much different from the 60km of the 99C tank!
Oreo on the side seemed to be very curious about the new big guy.
Looking at the black and white color that was similar to his own, Oreo looked arrogant, and with a gentle run, he jumped into the bucket of the excavator.
Lying in the bucket, Oreo seemed to have returned to his mother's "cradle", with a very happy smile on the dog's face.
"A dog that likes to lie in a bucket?"
Seeing Oreo lying down directly and saying that he would live in it today, Somo was also amused and laughed.
With the means of transportation, Sumo was less anxious about returning to the underground shelter and patiently looked around the excavator.
On the right side of the excavator, there is an upper and lower handrail.
Grabbing the handrail, stepping on the pedal below, and applying gentle pressure with his arms, Somo stood next to the cockpit of the excavator.
At this time, the key used to open the door has been inserted into the lock.
As Soma twisted, the cockpit door opened, revealing the not-so-shabby layout inside.
“It is worthy of being the world’s number one airdrop reward. Every detail seems to have been thought through, even the interior layout is pretty good.”
The leather seats are placed with expensive-looking cushions, and the dashboard is also made of beautiful solid wood.
Every place visible to the naked eye is basically equipped with the top equipment of the excavator.
If this is not an excavator, but a sports car, based on these specifications, it is estimated that the game will directly arrange the entire vehicle with carbon fiber.
Sitting on the seat, feeling the softness from sitting down, and trying to adjust the angle of the seat so that he could lie down half-ly, Sumo was surprised to find:
The driving experience of the excavator is actually better than that of the Land Tiger, and the sight line is also wider.
Sitting in such a vehicle, you not only feel a sense of security, but also a sense of power that the earth tiger cannot give!
"The single arm of the excavator is operated by pulling up the gear lever..."
Half-lying on the seat, Sumo picked up the operation manual beside him and began to study the use of the excavator carefully.
Just like the Lanxiang advertisement, nearly a hundred advanced equipment from all over the world are available for students to practice, and there is no charge for a one-month trial.
After actually reading the manual, Sumo was surprised to find that driving an excavator is really not difficult!
It is even easier than driving a manual transmission car, let alone how to start the machine.
That is to say, in practical applications, its specific operations are divided into four actions, namely the big arm, the small arm, the bucket, and the rotation.
These four actions basically cover all the ways of using the excavator.
Following the instructions in the manual, Sumo first lit the fire. After hearing the excavator's engine start to rumble, he held the right handle.
"The handle on the right has two actions: the bucket and the boom. The left and right are used to retract the bucket, and the front and back are used to raise and lower the arm. There are two in front that can only be used forward and backward. You can step on them with your feet.
It’s used for chain rail walking.”
Reciting the words on the instruction manual, Soma tightened his grip and pushed the handle forward.
Suddenly, Oreo, who was still lying in the bucket leisurely basking in the sun, looked down with a look of horror, as if he didn't understand why he was suddenly higher than the ground.
Then, Somo tried to pull the handle again, and sure enough, the bucket that had just been raised was gradually lowered again.
"Woof! Woohoo! Woof!"
After being put down, Oreo jumped out of the bucket with a frightened look on his face. Then when he saw Somo's evil smile in the cab, he immediately rushed up again with lightning speed.
"Ah? Still want to play?"
Seeing that Oreo seemed to have regained the fun of sitting in the back seat of the bouncy car, Somo became very interested and started to try these actions one by one according to the instructions.
It is easy to get started with an excavator, but it is difficult to drive it well.
After all, the bucket is different from the human hand. With the two handles on the left and right, it is extremely difficult to control this big thing accurately.
Fortunately, there are no traffic regulations in the wasteland, let alone large buildings.
Even if you make an occasional shoveling error, there is no coach by your side.
After trying for half an hour and figuring out all the operations, Sumo stopped waiting and directly raised the bucket, signaling Oreo to sit down, and then pulled the throttle knob to the maximum.
This big excavator doesn't have a gas pedal.
The flow of the pressure pump is mainly controlled by knobs and pull rods. The throttle knob is equivalent to the main switch next to the water meter, and the pump control system and handle opening are equivalent to the faucet.
As black smoke billowed out, the heavy tracks began to slowly move on the snow.
As Sumo shifted the gear to rabbit gear, the excavator no longer grinded slowly. An indescribable force suddenly erupted from the crawler tracks, pushing the heavy excavator forward quickly.
"Wow~~~"
In the bucket, feeling the cold wind coming, Oreo stood up excitedly and let out a domineering wolf howl!
