Shen Cong was born in Wuwei, Anhui Province on April 21, 2000. His parents worked hard for half their lives, bought six large trucks one after another, and opened a transportation company. Later, the transportation company's performance began to deteriorate, and to catch up with the rise in housing prices, his parents sold five large trucks. , purchased seven houses.
Just after the Spring Festival in 2015, a car accident took away the lives of his parents. Shen Cong, who witnessed the car accident with his own eyes, had an earth-shaking change in his personality.
He is no longer humorous and cheerful, no longer positive and optimistic, no longer makes friends, no longer goes out, and no longer even reads. He is paranoid all day long and feels that someone is trying to harm him.
Shen Cong, who was once called a "key university prospect" by his teachers and knew how to repair cars at the age of seven, became a patient with persecution paranoia. He relied on a large truck left by his parents, the rental fees of seven houses, and The compensation for the car accident was 800,000 yuan, and he lived a life of abandoned house.
Until one day in 2016, a post on the Internet changed the trajectory of Shen Cong's life again.
"Human beings are so demanding of nature, sooner or later the end will come, as evidenced by the sudden change in weather in the past two years!"
The author of the post is obviously an environmental protection person, and may even be a civil science expert. In the post, he listed in detail a lot of data on climate anomalies, magnetic pole changes, melting glaciers, frequent earthquakes, etc. I don’t know how to prove it, but in the end he came to the conclusion Conclusion, if we don’t protect the environment, the world will end sooner or later.
"I have a hunch that 2022 is the deadline for the end of the world! If humans don't stop destroying the environment, it will be too late!"
This kind of post may be useful to deceive newbies who are new to the Internet, but it is pure nonsense to deal with old Internet users.
On the contrary, the old netizens are still actively planning below. Once the doomsday comes, everyone has a lot of fun discussing how to save themselves and what survival supplies they should bring.
However, Shen Cong, who was immersed in the inner world of "there are always unscrupulous people who want to harm me", immediately believed the author's statement - perhaps because he wanted to find a spiritual sustenance for himself - Shen Cong decided to prepare now So as to welcome the end of the world and hope to survive the end of the world.
He searched for an outdoor survival exchange website on the Internet, and began to pay attention to how to escape from the current civilization and survive better outside.
A month later, Shen Cong became a senior member and had a complete doomsday plan in his mind.
He spent a week organizing this plan into a 90,000-word plan.
Looking at the results he had hammered out, Shen Cong felt vaguely excited deep in his heart. Perhaps when his parents left him, his life became illusory and he set his goal in life at the end of the world. Survive in such an invisible matter.
If there is an end.
Then let this doomsday destroy the gray world in front of you, strip away all the pain, and find a new self in the new world.
…
then.
Shen Cong, a patient suffering from persecution paranoia, made the decision to convert his truck into a doomsday chariot when he was in the second grade of middle school. He would drive this tank to survive in the apocalypse.
He picked up his talent for repairing cars again, and in six years from 2016 to 2022, Shen Cong realized his own doomsday chariot bit by bit.
Building a chariot allowed him to find a way to stop being decadent.
Facing the end, he wanted to use it nervously every day to arm himself. No one knew what the end would be like, but making oneself stronger was the most basic response.
Shen Cong even contacted a dealer selling homemade firearms on the Internet. After several transactions, he bought three high-pressure air guns and two high-imitation pistols from the other party. He also personally visited several nearby counties and towns. Check around the police station and armed police detachment, choose the route, draw the map, and rush to grab the firearms when the doomsday comes.
If he was caught, he would definitely be jailed, but Shen Cong was not a dangerous person in society. He hid the gun after buying it and never used it.
To practice shooting, I always go to a shooting club in the provincial capital.
Usually, I mainly work in an abandoned warehouse rented by my parents who used to run a transportation company, renovate trucks, exercise, and learn archery, crossbow shooting, and slingshot shooting. The level of crossbow shooting is no worse than that of professionals, especially slingshots, within twenty meters, You can hit wherever you point, even a soybean grain.
Crossbows and slingshots are definitely powerful weapons in a doomsday world, and ammunition can be made anywhere.
…
The weather is fine.
In China in 2022, due to vigorous anti-pollution measures, the sky has returned to blue. This is completely different from the scene Shen Cong expected from the post he saw six years ago. Shen Cong's belief in the doomsday has also been shaken, but he has been persistent for several times. Years later, he doesn't want to give up halfway and continues to renovate the big truck.
Sizzling, sizzling.
Electric welding melted the steel together. Shen Cong was standing on the top of the large truck, installing a small radar on the lifting platform. This small radar is a military battlefield reconnaissance radar AN/PPS-15A. Shen Cong spent nearly 400,000 yuan to install it from The Radio Amateurs Club in the provincial capital hired someone to find scraps.
Those with connections in the club can get some scrap products from the army and then sell them to others at high prices.
In order to repair this radar, Shen Cong spent a lot of time learning this knowledge. Thanks to his smart mind and experience in maintenance, it finally took him nearly a year to repair the radar today.
Because this radar is very precious, Shen Cong specially designed a lifting platform. When it is needed, it can be raised up, and when it is not needed, it can be lowered into the carriage.
Half an hour later, it was installed.
Shen Cong looked at the 15A radar with satisfaction, and decided to use sandpaper and clay to polish the welded parts a little brighter, and then spray them with camouflage paint. Then it would be perfect.
Bang!
Shen Cong jumped down from the top of the car at a height of nearly four meters, took out the electronic car key from his waist, and pointed it at the large truck wrapped in steel spike armor.
With two clicks, the armor wrapped around the front of the car opened, and Shen Cong jumped on.
The truck is Volvo's new FH heavy truck, with a displacement of 16.1L, a maximum horsepower of 750 horsepower, 12 forward gears, 4 reverse gears, and a maximum speed of 120km/h. This was the previous data, but now it has been completely changed after Shen Cong's modification. Similarly, Shen Cong installed two 6-cylinder engines at the rear wheels of the truck.
The nine-meter long container behind the car has also been overall heightened and widened. It is now 3.9 meters in height and 3.5 meters in width. It is wrapped with steel plates welded with steel spikes. Unfortunately, considering the load capacity, Shen Cong only It can install a 16mm steel plate, so that it can be wrapped with a circle of steel plates without affecting the speed of the vehicle.
A bulldozer blade removed from the bulldozer is also installed on the front of the vehicle. The bulldozer blade is a full four meters wide and can sweep across almost any obstacle.
The enhancement of the appearance actually does not require much effort. What really took Shen Cong six years to create was the transformation of the interior of the truck.
It can be said that except for the name of this Volvo heavy truck, other parts have been replaced by Shen Cong.
In order to block the weak part of the windshield, Shen Cong thought about installing bulletproof glass, but finally gave up this plan and changed it to a full steel plate armor package. As for the outside situation, cameras and periscopes were used to realize it. Therefore, the cab has been modified It has become an autonomous driving system.
There are eight computer screens of various sizes hanging inside, controlling every part of the truck.
Shen Cong skillfully pressed the button on the console, opened one of the screens, entered a string of codes, and soon the radar search startup progress bar was displayed. After about a minute, the search was completed, and the radar on the top was connected. The scanned image appears on the screen.
Battlefield reconnaissance radar can detect moving vehicles, personnel and other targets within a kilometer range.
The reason why this radar was installed is that Shen Cong has always fantasized about the possibility that in the event of an encounter at the end of the world, he could detect the enemy in advance and escape easily. In addition, infrared thermal imaging cameras are installed at the front and rear of the car, which can be used in conjunction with the radar to enable more accurate observation. surroundings.
"Boom boom!"
The ignition started, and the three engines roared at the same time. Shen Cong immediately drove the heavy truck around in the square of the warehouse, feeling the wild impact brought by the tank. If the heavy truck was not so shocking, he really wanted to drive it out and try to drive on the highway. It feels like getting into a Mercedes-Benz, but now I can only drive in circles in a small square.
This warehouse is large in area and is located in a remote area. It is surrounded by walls nearly four to five meters high, blocking everything inside. Because it is surrounded by farmland, there are no taller buildings that can peek inside.
Only occasionally farmers working in the fields would hear the roar inside the wall.
If you walk into the wall, you will find that this huge abandoned warehouse square is filled with all kinds of scrap and rusty steel parts at the foot of the wall. Broken tires are piled in one corner, like a city wall. However, although there are many scraps , but stacked very neatly.
A small forklift was parked in the corner, obviously used to stack waste.
Beyond the piles of scraps is an old steel-structured warehouse. The warehouse is obviously old and has been damaged in many places, but it has been roughly covered with various steel plates.
Wrapped like a scrap metal can.
In the past six years, Shen Cong gave up the luxurious life in the city and lived here alone.
After satisfying his driving addiction, he parked the chariot in the center of the square, opened the armor on the front of the vehicle, and jumped out. Looking at the shining, silvery-white light in the sun, dense welding traces could be seen. , the ferocious and domineering steel chariot, Shen Cong finally felt a sense of security in his heart.
Then he checked the supplies in the carriage. He didn't know the exact time when the end would come, so Shen Cong kept all the supplies stored in the carriage just in case. He also tested the loading capacity of the King Kong under full load. .
"Materials complete."
Thinking about it, Shen Cong took out a bottle of spray paint from his pocket.
On the armor of the heavy truck, he spray-painted the name he gave to this steel chariot - King Kong. In addition to not being able to transform, it is as powerful as the Transformers and more ferocious than Optimus Prime's truck.
"King Kong, if the end comes, you and I will be with you all the way!"
Just at this moment, there was a rumble of thunder in the sky.
Shen Cong looked up at the sky and saw that in the originally sunny sky, a meteor shower started to fall. One meteor after another dragged its bright tail, and it was still clearly visible even in the daytime. Suddenly, there was a meteor, It seems to be dragging its tail towards the warehouse.
