Chapter 488 Exposing everyone’s strengths, the first “neighbor” of depression (
2-in-1)
call!
Wow!
The loud creaking noises slowly stopped.
Covered in mud, the garage door of the underground shelter was completely opened, revealing a slightly dark interior.
"Master, we are going... home!"
Holding the shovel on his shoulder, Moore's face was full of excitement, and his eyes were shining.
For him, this is the place where he was born and his only home in this world.
It has an extraordinary special meaning!
However, before Sumo could make any move.
Su Chan, who had been waiting at the rear, couldn't hold back the excitement in her heart and rushed forward suddenly.
The next second.
Along with the smell of waste oil caused by the long-term storage of machinery, and the musty smell caused by incomplete drainage of the inside, suddenly burst out!
Su Chan, who still wanted to rush in, coughed and retreated.
"Ahem, it smells so strong, brother, you didn't plant a bomb in it, did you?"
"Ha, you girl, what are you talking about? This smell is so friendly, you won't be able to smell it if you want to!"
"You say so, Oreo!"
The strengthened body already has a strong sense of smell.
Such a sense of smell made it easy for Somo to distinguish the familiar smell inside.
It smells like the engine oil of a land tiger.
It smells like King Kong's bucket.
There is the smell of petroleum seeping through the stone door.
There is also a unique sweetness bursting from the nether energy well.
Seeing Oreo barking, he ran in eagerly.
After taking a breath of enjoyment, Soma also strode into it.
Poof!
The battery, which has been stored for more than a month, still has a lot of power.
As Oreo skillfully struck the switch with his claws, the three garage headlights on the first floor unfolded!
Several steel beasts lying quietly on the ground were revealed inside!
In the back, Su Chan was still standing at the door, wanting to wait until the smell dissipated.
The moment I saw so many modern vehicles, my eyes suddenly jumped.
Straight!
It is said that vehicles made by machines are big toys that only men can understand and like.
But for humans who have lived in the apocalypse for a few months.
No matter if you are male or female, young or old.
The first time I saw this thing, I had only one feeling:
familiar!
It’s like I’m back on Earth!
"Haha, there should be no oil in it now. When we resume productivity, I will take you out for a spin!"
After patting the front of Dihu's car and hearing the crackling sound of the iron sheet, Sumo realized it.
Happiness can be so simple!
In the wasteland, there is such a solid base, there are family members around, and there are steel vehicles that are loyal to oneself.
It is obviously an ordinary day, but it can have a completely different feeling of happiness from before.
"When the next disaster is over and my parents come over, our family will stay here well!"
"No one can stop us from moving forward!"
"I want a steel city belonging to mankind to rise in this territory!"
It seems like a sigh.
It seems like setting a goal.
Seeing Su Chan nodding fiercely, she clenched her little fists.
Sumo smiled, walked to the stone door, and slowly pushed back.
This time, it ended with the sound of friction between the stone door and the ground.
Thanks to the blessing of the mermaid, the smell coming from the lower two floors is much smaller.
As Soma controlled the lion's wind, breathing in and blowing, it immediately became fresh.
It exudes a faint aroma of stone as if it had just been built.
"This is the second floor of our house, where Oreo, Moore, Big Sparkle and others usually live."
"This is our oil well, this is the nether energy well, and this is where the generator is placed."
Walking through the Z-shaped corridor, as if introducing guests, I looked at Su Chan's obedient appearance as she nodded frequently.
Every time Soma walked through a place, he opened it in a teaching manner.
The first was the oil well that had been idle for more than a month. After the first wave of manual power was output, the control panel popped up.
"Now that our base is under construction, the first priority must be diesel."
"Considering the heavy snowfall that is coming, gasoline may be needed as a primer to ignite something, so click on the second option and select gasoline."
"For the last option, you can choose asphalt!"
After pondering for a moment and looking at all the items that could be produced, Sumo finally assigned the last item to Asphalt.
Whether it's a drop in temperature, snowfall, or heavy rain.
Once the magnitude is too great, road problems in the territory will be inevitable.
Not to mention going out for hunting, just walking around in daily life will become a big problem.
But if you start saving now.
After more than ten days, although the asphalt was not enough to pave all the main roads, after mixing more sand and gravel, it was completely enough to pave a few important locations.
The second place to turn on is the generator.
Although the 300-kilowatt generator set is huge and consumes astonishing fuel, its power generation efficiency is also extremely powerful.
As the rumble sounded and the power output indicator light turned green, Sumo came to the last place with satisfaction.
"Don't look at the many things we have at home now. This nether energy well is the real treasure, and its value is completely comparable."
"Ten, no, a hundred bases like ours!"
After putting the hanging bucket down again and using the system to check that the well had returned to normal operation, Sumo let out a long sigh of relief.
"It turns out that the nether energy water is really drawn from the well, I thought"
"You don't really believe what they said. This water is the fountain of youth that I dug out from the underground ruins, right?"
Looking at Su Chan, she said, "That's what I thought."
Sumo touched the back of his head and laughed calmly.
Before World Chat was cancelled, there were different opinions about the magical thing called psionic water.
First, this water was sold by Somo on the first day. It is unrealistic to say that it was dug from a well.
Secondly, the effect of this water is not comparable to that of ordinary water. Ordinary small wounds can be scabbed by drinking it on the spot, and ordinary colds and colds can be cured in minutes.
Third, in the days to come, Somo will no longer be sold.
Combine these three points.
Most people unified their views and began to believe in the idea of the Fountain of Youth that was proposed by some ghost.
They firmly believe that Somo must have found an underground ruins at the beginning of the game and obtained the treasure inside.
And this spring is one of them.
One spreads to ten, and ten spreads to a hundred.
Gradually, after Su Mo strictly ordered Moore, who knew about it, not to tell anyone, even Su Chan was kept in the dark.
"Actually, no matter what they say, just letting everyone think that the psionic water is gone is the best protection for us."
"Furthermore, the current production of nether energy water is not large, we can only wait until we find a way to develop it in the future."
"But at this stage, it is definitely enough for our daily use!"
While he was talking, there were already three or four mouthfuls of food in the bucket.
Looking at the shocking scene inside the well that looked like it was made up of blue dots, like a galaxy, Somo closed the lid and continued walking to the third floor.
"This is our daily resting place, and I have reserved a room for you."
"Come on, this side room is yours, not bad!"
Saying this, as he walked around the corner and looked at the room filled with saltpeter ore, Somo touched his head in embarrassment.
This made Oreo, who had been following him, laugh.
“Don’t look at the fact that our house is now decorated in a Syrian style.”
"Brother, there are a lot of tools here. I'll take some time to do the wall coverings, pave the floors, install the lights, and keep it just like a villa!"
Su Chan shook her head: "No, brother, I am already very satisfied with this room. Even if my parents come over, I will keep it a hundred satisfied."
"Our refuge is a luxurious refuge with a global view. It is also a luxurious refuge where countless people squeeze their heads to come in. I think we should not focus on enjoyment at this stage. After all, a heavy snowfall is coming soon. There are more than a thousand people
, our refuge must be”
As she spoke, Su Chan's face was full of worry.
Lost the rules and witnessed cruelty.
Even in the civilized era, there are no children who have experienced setbacks and hardships.
He will also mature quickly and take on his own responsibilities.
Because she spent a lot of time in the tundra shelter, Su Chan understands better than a lone wolf how insignificant ordinary people are in a disaster.
The thought of experiencing a seven-day heavy snowstorm soon overcame the initial excitement of entering the shelter.
Just like the villagers outside.
A feeling called anxiety rose from the bottom of her heart again.
However, she still couldn't finish her words in the end.
Because standing in front of him, Su Chan couldn't see any worry or confusion on Su Mo's face.
Just like a general who knows he will win and has the belief to win.
Sumo nodded: "Brothers know what you are talking about, and I also understand your worries, but when you come to our territory, from today on, you only need to remember one thing."
"Just because others can't do it, doesn't mean I can't do it!"
"Here, I don't want you to worry about being in the Tundra Refuge every day. You just need to eat well, sleep well, and do what you like. That's my biggest motivation!"
Just like when I stood in front of the kobold castle and shouted out a mere false god, I still had a domineering attitude worthy of barking.
When he said these words, Somo's figure had already flashed away.
But looking at his back, Su Chan, who stayed behind, was stunned.
After a while, she laughed.
Someone is covering you.
very nice!
"Chen Shen, first take out the tents we have reserved and set them up. We have been traveling all day and night. Everyone is tired. Let's make a long-term plan tomorrow!"
"By the way, send out three teams of scouts, and try your best to take advantage of the rush march buff to still have a clear picture of the situation around our territory."
"If you have time, put together the map of the territory as soon as possible. Don't worry about the heavy snowfall in more than ten days!"
Suddenly entered the depression.
Everyone who had traveled more than a thousand kilometers in a hurry seemed to be exhausted, and everyone was lying at the foot of Tieshi Mountain, resting.
Several pots and stoves were set up during the break, and the smoke from the cooking pots rose straight into the sky with the breeze.
Smelling the smell of fireworks, standing on the top of Iron Stone Mountain, Somo gave instructions leisurely.
Behind him stood all the current managers of Hope Village, a total of sixteen people.
As Chen Shen accepted his promise and left quickly along the mountain road, the remaining people became quiet for a while.
"What's wrong? You're at a loss when you see this desolation?"
It's okay to stand down there.
Once we reached the top, we saw that the surrounding three or four kilometers were completely barren saline-alkali land.
A kind of management that had just raised some hope was once again like an eggplant beaten by frost and lost its voice.
"Shen Ke, please tell me how we can build in the remaining ten days so that we can successfully survive this disaster!"
No one said anything, so Somo simply clicked from the far left.
At this time, everyone had a reaction, but what was very uniform was that no one looked at Su Mo, but all looked at Shen Ke's face.
"if it was me."
"Currently, everyone basically has a core balance in hand. If you put it together, it is difficult to have one room per person, but if you have one or two hundred rooms, it is not a problem."
"We have relatively sufficient basic materials. After solving the problem of shelter, food will not be a big problem for the time being. And during this period, we can develop sufficient infrastructure models. As long as we collect enough materials, We can start building it right away.”
"As for the seven days of heavy snowfall, we can choose camphor trees in the game's compensation options, chop them into firewood and store them. When the heavy snowfall comes, use firewood to provide heat. There is a high probability that we can survive this disaster and wait until next time. Second-rate"
At the beginning, Shen Ke could still talk thoughtfully, and what he said made other people nod frequently.
But when it came to the next disaster, Shen Ke paused.
Make bricks without straw.
Now the entire territory is in a state of poverty. It can neither go out to explore outside the territory, nor can it follow the path of sustainable development, which will take three to five years to develop.
It is not difficult to survive this disaster.
But next time, I was embarrassed!
"Very good, this idea is okay. Come on, Zhang Long, tell me what you think!"
With the construction ideas provided by the previous crew members, and the dozen or so cards currently stored in the storage space, Sumo already had some ideas in his mind.
But in building this thing, the key is to learn the strengths of others.
After being pointed out by Su Mo, Zhang Long stood up with a grimace:
"Director, my thoughts are similar to Shen Ke's"
"There are too few natural resources that we can use in our territory now. If there is a large forest, this will not be the case. However, we can find a way to go outside the territory and use mechanical power to mine some resources to make up for our internal shortcomings in the early stage."
"Even with this mountain of iron and stone at our feet, we might be able to think of a way to find out if there are any large gathering places nearby that are short of iron, mine some, and send people out."
"trade!"
Wow!
If you don't say anything shocking, you will die.
As soon as Zhang Long said these words, all the silent management suddenly exploded.
trade.
Selling iron.
This is an idea that no one has ever imagined before.
In the apocalypse, iron is simply an ordinary metal resource.
To put it seriously, it is just like in ancient times, it is an act of capitalizing on the enemy.
It is very likely that the other party will take the iron ore you mined, turn it into a weapon, and attack you with a backhand.
"Yes, since we have arrived in the New World, we must not rest on our laurels and lock ourselves in this mere territory."
“Zhang Long’s proposal is very good!”
Once outside the territory, all players' cores will instantly return to an ownerless state.
Like Soma, if you go out, the underground shelter will collapse instantly.
And outside the territory.
As the distance gets further, personal status (physical strength, energy) will also be greatly weakened by strength factors.
In other words, if you dare to go out easily.
Once you don't come back for a long time, there is basically no difference between it and being useless.
Beyond this, only mechanical power is unrestricted.
This is also the reason why the aliens want to reuse old technology.
Seeing that Zhang Long's outrageous suggestions were all accepted by Su Mo, the remaining people lost their restraint and began to speak enthusiastically.
Half a moment.
When everyone was discussing happily and salivating.
Chen Shen also left and came back.
And this time, he also brought back exciting news for everyone!
"Director, our detection team is back and found a place 135 kilometers east."
“Megacamp!”
"There are suspected traces of our human activities!"
