A vertical elevator goes straight from the ground to the center of the suspended mountain. Through the glass outside the elevator, you can overlook the entire brightly lit city of Walsabak.
Yu Zhesen and Chu Yuexi, who were invited to visit this man-made wonder, had bright eyes. This was a rare novelty for them.
Abraham and Alicia stood side by side on the left side of the elevator, looking at the silhouettes of the two on the right with smiles.
"The interior of the suspended mountain is hollow, and the headquarters of the Warsabak Security Bureau is located on it." Abraham said, "In addition, functional departments such as the city hall are also being relocated upwards."
"It's amazing..." Chu Yuexi murmured in admiration, "How can such a big castle be suspended in the sky? Where does the energy come from to power it?"
"The most indispensable thing in Walshabak is energy." Abraham shrugged, "The high-purity NU2 ore mined from the Great Sand World is enough to maintain the energy of the entire city. While we are self-sufficient, we also export it."
Alicia also echoed: "The energy ore exported by Wallshaback accounts for more than half of the energy consumption of all revitalized cities. After all, mining from the Great Sand Boundary is much easier than mining from the seabed of the outer world."
Yu Zhesen turned back and looked at them: "How to ensure the safety of the energy mining stations in the desert world? I heard that due to the special magnetic field environment, air power cannot be deployed deep into the desert, so the defense forces are eaten by desert pirates.
It’s a lot of losses.”
"Desert pirates? They are totally useless." Alicia's tone was very confident, and it didn't look like she was lying.
Abraham kept smiling and said: "Actually, they are just some anarchists hiding in the Great Sand World. In the harsh natural environment of the Great Sand World, they have neither factories to produce weapons nor enough food to expand their ranks. Think about it.
Know how it could be a threat?"
His explanation was indeed self-explanatory, but Yu Zhesen did not believe it, because Yuan Yinchuan's memories of Walshabak could not be false.
Yuan Yinchuan and Abraham have different opinions, which gives more reason to suspect that the problem of desert piracy in Walshaback may not have been solved at all, but the truth was covered up in another way by those in power.
Yu Zhesen stared at Abraham, unable to see even the slightest ripple in his brown eyes. This man had a deeper understanding than Jin Jianshen.
The vertical sightseeing elevator arrived at the end, and the four of them came to the interior of the suspended mountain in the clouds. At this time, they could more clearly see the structure of this man-made wonder. The external mountain was just an appearance, and the internal space was spacious and unique.
To be precise, the suspended mountain is actually an aerial fortress camouflaged by steel walls covered with soil and vegetation.
The special material used in the dome of the fortress can adjust the transparency. After Yu Zhesen and others stepped out of the elevator and raised their heads, they could see the bright starry sky through the dome.
"That's the security bureau headquarters in Warsabak over there, but it's already off work at this time." Alicia pointed to a hemispherical building in the distance and introduced it to Yu Zhesen and Chu Yuexi, "Actually, this place was newly built not long ago.
The facilities are brand new, if you want to take a look, I can lead the way."
"With the Security Bureau headquarters located at such a high place, wouldn't it be too late to deal with emergencies?" Chu Yuexi asked.
Previously, she found it a bit troublesome that the headquarters of the Qidao City Security Bureau was located in the municipal district. If a mission was to be carried out across the islands, unless they could take the Sea Wind or Falcon Rotorcraft, it would be a waste of time to deploy purely on the ground.
"This place has our exclusive hangar." Alicia's answer once again highlighted Wolshaback's wealth.
According to her, the Warsabak Security Bureau is not only equipped with flying vehicles, airships and a large number of individual exoskeleton floating wing accessories, but also two squadron-sized VXF-21 fighter vehicles. And they believe that VXF-
21 This type of aircraft commonly equipped by the National Defense Force has become outdated, and new models are being independently invested in research and development.
"We are still using helicopters and rotorcraft..." Chu Yuexi smiled awkwardly and poked Yu Zhesen with her elbow.
"No way, Qidao City Security Bureau doesn't have the money to buy these big things." Yu Zhesen could only smile bitterly, "If I had money, first come first served, I would have bought the Nuwa ship long ago."
Abraham showed an interested expression after hearing this: "The Nuwa you are talking about is the new fighter jet launched by Xingtian Heavy Industry, right? I heard that it performed well in the battle against the Adventist sect's massive invasion of Qidao City. It was completely
It compares favorably with the fighter planes of the National Defense Forces."
"Yes, unfortunately something happened to Xingtian Heavy Industry later. Due to financial constraints, the production line of Nuwa was forced to be dismantled. It can be said that it is out of print." Yu Zhesen shook his head regretfully.
When Han Jinghu escaped, he almost caused the entire Xingtian Heavy Industry to collapse. Fortunately, the move into the civilian bionic robot market was successful and gave it a breath of fresh air. Today, Xingtian Heavy Industry helps maintain the Dark Night Fire Armor in private, which is not a problem, but
It is estimated that it will be difficult to conduct new exoskeleton research and development or restart the Nuwa production line in the short term.
When Abraham heard that the Nuwa might become the only out-of-print fighter in the world, he couldn't help but sigh: "It seems that the next generation of main fighters can only rely on the research and development results of Volshabak. Originally, I was very optimistic about the Nuwa."
Wahao has also considered purchasing and importing it, which is a pity."
"Xingtian Heavy Industry just temporarily lacks R&D funds, and its transition to the civilian market is just a temporary measure." Yu Zhesen said, "I wonder if your family intends to invest in them? Although the production line of the Nuwa has been dismantled, a full set of design drawings are still available.
Both the technology and technology have been preserved, and it’s not like there will never be a chance to see the light of day again.”
"How do I have the right to make decisions for the family?" Abraham smiled, "Instructor, you think too highly of me."
"Really? I remember it was written in the base's student file that you are the first heir of your family, and you are now involved in various affairs as the acting executor of family power."
"You also said that I am just an 'agent', and agency is actually just a name." Abraham said mockingly, "It is true that I am the first heir of the family, but I am not qualified to get involved in the family's financial rights before the actual inheritance.
of."
Alicia interjected with a smile: "Isn't Master Abraham quite rich? He even funded an open-air party for everyone to have fun and relax."
"That kind of small money is nothing. Compared with the funds for weapons research and development, it is not even a fraction." Abraham waved his hand.
"But I'm very envious. Since you're not short of money, can you give me a salary increase from the Security Bureau?" Alicia said half-jokingly.
"The salary will be increased when the training camp at the base is over." Abraham answered her readily.
"Ah? Really?" Alicia looked shocked, "I just said it casually."
"Of course, training is so hard, so a salary increase is deserving." Abraham stroked his bangs.
Yu Zhesen and Chu Yuexi looked at each other and found that there was envy in each other's eyes - it would be great if the Qidao City Security Bureau could also increase their salary.
The four people arrived outside the spherical building of the Warsabak Security Bureau headquarters. Under the leadership of Abraham, they did not enter through the main entrance. Instead, they took a shortcut through the side access control to the equipment showroom. I wonder if they were deliberately showing off their wealth to the end.
The first stop Abraham took them to visit was the equipment warehouse that best demonstrated their strength.
As soon as they entered the security bureau, the virtual three-dimensional projection AI "Isis" appeared in front of everyone. It was the image of a white-haired and dark-skinned lady. At first glance, she looked a bit like Alicia.
"Welcome back, Director Abraham, Commissioner Alicia." Isis bowed politely.
"Director?" Chu Yuexi called out in surprise.
"Not the kind of director you think." Abraham quickly waved his hand and explained, "Our Warsabak Security Bureau has a subordinate department called the Public Security Enforcement Bureau, which is similar to your field department. The staff may be smaller and more streamlined than yours. It is considered
This is an elite force, and I will temporarily serve as the head of this Public Security Enforcement Bureau."
"It should be similar to the rapid response department in Xingzhou City. It is a gathering of elites." Yu Zhesen said.
"The instructor praised us again. No elite security bureau in the Fuxing City can touch the rapid response department of Xingzhou City." Abraham smiled modestly.
Yu Zhesen knew that he was talking politely, but at least his acting skills were very good and there was no flaw in his face.
This man is not simple... His heart once again set the tone for Abraham.
