Chapter 006 It's Good To Come Back
【Lighthouse】Outbound base.
This is one of the few outposts in the No. 127 Neijie. The lighthouse base was built for the exploration of three Neijie cities and dozens of towns within 500 kilometers nearby.
To facilitate personnel rest, treatment and supplemental supplies.
The base is built under a dam and is 50 meters above the base. It has a large water purification device built into it, which can provide daily water use for the base.
At the same time, once a large-scale attack occurs, an artificial flood can be created by detonating the dam's water interceptor wall.
Fortunately, this suicide defense method has not yet come into use in the past ten years since the construction of the lighthouse base.
There is a defense tower on the heavy explosion-proof door at the entrance of the base, and the high-power searchlights on the tower swept through the defensive trenches in front day and night.
Since intelligent electronic systems are used for assistance, only one scholar is required to be on duty in each defense tower.
At this time, in the left defense tower, the warrior wearing black full-body protective armor yawned. Since there is a filtering and purification system in the defense tower, it can prevent black fog from penetrating, so the name of the Shi Ming can not wear a helmet.
This is one of the few benefits of working in a defensive tower.
The built-in contact of the protective armor flashed, and a message was received in the private channel: "How is it, Wei Bo, you kid won't fall asleep, right?"
The soldier named Wei Bo smiled and replied, "Just ten minutes ago, I took a nap. Oh my God, the work of the defense tower is so boring that I had known that I should have applied to join the Nightcrawler Exploration Corps."
"You can save money. You are Shangmin, and your dad doesn't want you to take risks. Apart from Xiamin and Madman, who would volunteer to join the Night Walker?"
Wei Bo was about to say something, but suddenly the computer prompted that a warning signal was detected, which meant that there were dark people approaching the base.
"Damn!"
Wei Bo jumped up, his fingers quickly danced on the virtual keyboard, and a holographic window in front opened.
In the window, several staggering figures appeared in the open area in front of the base entrance.
Although the soldiers could not see their specific appearance due to insufficient light. However, it is not difficult to tell from the twisted limbs and the gray-white flames floating on their chests that were some wanderers.
The soldiers breathed a sigh of relief, and several wanderers were not threatening at all. Since the base was put into use, although this area was rarely visited by dark people, occasionally a few blind things would be closed.
But Wei Bo suddenly collapsed and tightened again because he saw that there was a car behind those wanderers.
The thin shell has no weapons installed, only four tires. And it looks like those tires are leaking.
This is obviously the vehicle that can be seen everywhere in the city of Nejie. It is rumored that the design inspiration for the first wheeled vehicle came from the scrap copper and iron in the city of Nejie.
The soldier couldn't help but rub his eyes, thinking that he was dazzled. After all, those vehicles should not have enough power to drive them.
Soon he knew the reason.
It's a wanderer!
Someone tied iron chains as thick as arms to these ugly things. The other end of the chain was tied to the car's guardrail, so the prowlers acted as coolies and pulled the car forward.
The wanderer is not a livestock, so naturally he cannot use a whip to drive them away. Therefore, there is a lampshade hanging on both sides of the car.
In the transparent cover, there was a star crystal grass. The light emitted by the star crystal grass made the wanderer instinctively want to stay away, thus creating this scene in the holographic window.
Wei Bo couldn't help but sigh sincerely for this wonderful idea. Then the defense tower received a message: "Can the defense tower be heard? I am Tianyang, a member of the fourth team of the collection team, and the soldier code is 1507. I requested to enter the base. Oh, by the way, please inform the experimental department that I have several living specimens of the wanderer here and ask them to send someone to receive it."
Pointing his head out of the car window, Tianyang held the standard communicator and repeated the words just now.
A slightly panicked voice sounded in the communicator: "The defense tower has been received, and now I'm verifying my identity, please wait..."
After a while, the explosion-proof door of the base opened and several special base vehicles drove over. Among them, there were two sample transport vehicles from the base experimental department.
The wanderer was received, and Tianyang handed over the star crystal grass he had collected casually. As for the star marrow pillar in the tunnel, he could not bring it back, but he had marked the location of the star stalk in the map.
It is also a great achievement to hand over this map later.
Prowler, star crystal grass, and star pillar map. These three things are enough to make Tianyang get 4,000 contribution points.
In the fortress, 1,000 contribution points can allow a family of three to live a year without worries about food and clothing.
So after registering for Tianyang, the officer in charge of the record was already a little jealous when he looked at the boy.
"Your left eye is injured, so I suggest you go to the medical center. And you just came back and according to regulations, you must undergo a full-body examination. Then, it is better to report to the superior officer."
After uploading Tianyang's information to the base system, the officer responsible for base defense work suggested this.
Tianyang made his request: "Sir, I want to meet Commander of the Night Walker."
The base officer was stunned: "I'm afraid the commander won't go there for a special trip for a team collector, even if you bring a lot of things back."
Tianyang pointed to his nose and said, "Maybe you noticed that I did not wear a helmet. Yes, I am already a sublimator. Moreover, my awakened rank is not in the information released by the fortress, and perhaps the commander will be interested in this."
"You mean, a brand new rank? I'll go...ah, sorry."
The officer finally agreed: "This way, I will ask the soldiers to take you to the hospital. As for your request, I will report to the Nightcrawler Headquarters. As for whether the commander will see you, it is not something I can decide."
"That's fine, please trouble you."
A base vehicle took Tianyang away and entered the explosion-proof door. Looking out from the window, the boy saw that a supply transport vehicle was heading towards the storage room.
Two Falcon High-speed Guerrillas drove past nearby and prepared to leave the base. This is the standard vehicle for Night Walker. I don’t know which team is starting a new round of exploration.
In the distance, on the base's school ground, several three-dimensional armed forces were conducting combat training. This was a human-shaped weapon developed to make up for the disadvantage of the number of sublimators.
This base is still as vibrant as ever. The people in the base are like a hard-working ant colony, exploring the world efficiently and tirelessly.
Withdrew his gaze, Tianyang whispered.
“It’s great to come back!”
