"According to the satellite weather station, the temperature in our city tomorrow will be as high as 23 degrees. The weather has been erratic in recent days. Citizens are advised to pay attention when traveling..."
Gu Zhuo stared closely at the weather forecast on the TV station. Sure enough, following the female host's voice, every word she said was exactly what Gu Zhuo expected.
23 degrees is not a particularly high temperature, and it would not be noticeable at ordinary times. However, it is now the twelfth lunar month of winter, and the temperature that should have been below zero has reached an unprecedented 23 degrees this year, which is really surprising.
After Gu Zhuo finished reading the weather forecast, he silently turned on the computer nearby and browsed the web content.
The content of the doomsday survival forum he follows is being updated rapidly at the moment, and everyone is discussing this year's abnormal weather phenomena.
Gu Zhuo randomly clicked on a few shocking headlines, all of which speculated that the weather was abnormal, which was a sign that the end was approaching.
With a slight sigh, Gu Zhuo silently exited the forum page and sat in a chair in a daze.
Half a year ago, a lot of information began to appear frequently in Gu Zhuo's mind, which was closely related to his future life.
At the beginning, the information he came into contact with was the simplest news, such as where a robbery occurred and where an official resigned... As time went by, the information in his mind slowly turned into various geological disasters.
The floods, earthquakes and other disasters in the first half of this year all corresponded to the information that appeared out of thin air in his mind. This amazing accuracy made Gu Zhuo believe that he might have actually undergone some special changes.
Recently, the information in his mind told him that in two months, the end will come. Although he does not know the specific circumstances of the end, there is no doubt that human existence will be threatened as never before.
Two months, I still have two months to prepare.
In order to cope with the unknown doomsday, Gu Zhuo paid attention to the largest doomsday survival forum in the country. In the past few days, he stayed in the forum day and night to learn the knowledge needed for doomsday survival.
Perhaps it was an opportunity given to him by God. At the same time that Gu Zhuo learned that the end would come in two months, he gained a special ability: mechanic.
As a mechanic, when he acquired this special ability, Gu Zhuo already knew its full use in his mind.
It can create and upgrade various machines based on drawings, including various firearms and vehicles. However, the condition for creating machines is that the drawings must be very detailed and accurate, and Gu Zhuo needs to provide materials himself.
This ability is the guarantee for Gu Zhuo to survive the entire apocalypse, so Gu Zhuo must think clearly about what kind of machinery he can use to create a machine in the past two months to ensure his safety in the apocalypse.
The omnipotent netizens on the doomsday survival forum quickly told him the answer: he needed a doomsday base vehicle, or in other words, a flawless doomsday mobile fortress.
For this reason, Gu Zhuo went online to check the information. He checked all models of RVs, some were said to be necessary for the doomsday, and some were said to be comparable to tanks, but none of these RVs satisfied Gu Zhuo.
Finally, Gu Zhuo met a well-known fantasy mechanical designer in the industry through an inconspicuous post on the Doomsday Survival Forum. He simply decided to contact the designer himself and ask him to draw a detailed drawing according to his requirements.
Negotiate the price with the fantasy mechanical designer. One drawing, one price, $20,000.
This is not a small amount. Fortunately, after Gu Zhuo retired from the army at the age of 23, he worked as a personal bodyguard for celebrities for two years, with an annual salary of up to 300,000. He still has some savings.
In addition, his parents died early and left him a house in the city center, so he can be considered a petty bourgeoisie.
For this doomsday crisis, Gu Zhuo gritted his teeth, sold the house left to him by his parents, rented an abandoned warehouse far from the city, and started preparing for the doomsday there.
The most important thing to deal with the doomsday is undoubtedly food and water. Gu Zhuo bought two years' worth of canned food, compressed biscuits and other long-term storage food online, as well as one year's worth of bottled drinking water.
After buying food and water, he bought a lot of medicines online. He bought all the medicines he could name.
Of course, he also stocked up on alcohol, which was as important as medicine. After all, sometimes when trying to survive in the apocalypse, the highest fatality rate was often small wounds that were too late to be treated.
In addition, by virtue of his special status, he obtained several military daggers for self-defense. As for firearms, he really had no access to them, and he could not find any information on manufacturing firearms on the Internet.
Fortunately, there was also the fantasy mechanical designer. Gu Zhuo gave him some extra money and asked him to add weapons and equipment to the doomsday fortress vehicle he designed. He also asked him to design a few more thermal weapons for himself.
After preparing food, water, and medicine, Gu Zhuo read through all the posts on the doomsday forum that were the most popular and seemed to be recognized by the most people, and listed everything he needed on the list one by one.
Based on the opinions of netizens, he specially bought a few new computers. On one of the computers, he paid to purchase all the information he could find. No matter what it was about, as long as it looked useful, he copied it all to the computer.
.In the apocalypse, this knowledge may come in handy at some point.
With a tablet, he paid for all the most detailed high-definition maps online. He downloaded the map, and all the nearby routes, all the shops and gas stations on the route were clearly visible on the map.
On the other computers, he downloaded many movies and TV series, various animations, and various high-rated games. Including various types of novels, books, and comics, he downloaded everything he could.
In the apocalypse, if people have no spiritual sustenance and are too bored, their spirits will collapse.
It took him more than half a month to purchase supplies. The items on the list were increasing almost every day, including oxygen bottles, accurate electronic watches, some necessary tools such as engineering shovels, and cold-weather clothes...
He even bought a purebred Caucasian dog with the most powerful genes, which cost him a total of 10,000 yuan.
Because he heard people say that sometimes a dog can be of great help to survive in the apocalypse. Whether it is lonely companionship when unable to find the same kind, or when facing some potential dangers, dogs are man's best friends.
After many considerations, Gu Zhuo finally chose a Caucasian dog, not for anything else but because of the Caucasian dog's fierce fighting power and its absolutely loyal character.
According to common sense, the smaller the dog kept in an RV, the better, otherwise it will take up a lot of internal space. However, Gu Zhuo asked the designer to design his doomsday fortress as big as possible, so there should be no problems encountered by small RVs.
, so the space should be able to support a large Caucasian dog.
The Caucasian dog he bought was still a two-month-old puppy, but because of its excellent bloodline and already very muscular body, Gu Zhuo named it Sam. This is the puppy raised by the male protagonist in "I Am Legend"
The name of the dog.
For Sam's sake, Gu Zhuo specially bought a lot of high-quality dog food from the Internet, and also asked the designer to add more living space for dogs on the fortress car he designed.
Finally, more than half a month later, with 40 days left before the end, Gu Zhuo finally bought everything on the list, and the designer also sent detailed drawings.
When he got those drawings, Gu Zhuozai looked at them carefully several times to make sure that every place he mentioned to the designer had been taken into consideration by the designer. He was indeed a designer who paid a large sum of money.
Very professional indeed.
He was sitting in a rickety little room next to the warehouse. At his feet, Sam was dozing.
After Gu Zhuo carefully read the drawings of the Doomsday Fortress, he picked up the weapon design drawings that were sent with it.
The designer designed a total of two weapons for Gu Zhuo, one is a laser sword and the other is an air gun, both of which have a sense of futuristic technology.
Gu Zhuo originally planned to ask the designer to design another set of robot armor for him, but the designer told him that the detailed design of the armor covered many professional fields and the project was very complex. He had recently received many orders, and his
The Doomsday Mobile Fortress has been completed after working overtime.
If he wanted to design another set of armor for him, it would probably take several months. Gu Zhuo naturally couldn't wait such a long time, so he gave up the idea.
As long as the mechanic can really build the doomsday mobile fortress he envisions, with the addition of these two weapons, the chance of survival in the doomsday should be much greater.
Gu Zhuo stood up from the chair gently, trying not to disturb Sam who was already asleep. He walked to the large open space in front of the warehouse. There were some wastelands around here, and no one came there at all.
He took out these drawings and spread them in front of him. Then he closed his eyes.
As he closed his eyes, the "Mechanic" immediately activated, and the two-dimensional drawings in front of Gu Zhuo's eyes immediately became three-dimensional.
All the lines stood up and formed a huge outline. This feeling was very magical. Gu Zhuo seemed to be able to control these lines and return them to wherever Gu Zhuo wanted them to be.
This magical feeling lasted for about ten minutes. When Gu Zhuo opened his eyes again, the drawings were gone, and a large amount of materials were listed in front of him.
Seeing these materials, Gu Zhuo couldn't help but click his tongue.
Ten tons of steel, five tons of copper, one hundred kilograms of titanium alloy...and all kinds of leather, screws, and weird materials.
In short, when Gu Zhuo saw this list, his first reaction was that these materials were enough to build several tanks.
However, Gu Zhuo felt relieved when he thought that these materials were indispensable for the function of his doomsday mobile fortress.
These materials were a huge expense. Fortunately, after Gu Zhuo sold the house, he had sufficient funds. He immediately ordered all the materials he could find online. For some materials that were difficult to find, he used his connections to go to other factories.
Bought in bulk.
At first, the factory was not willing to let him buy in such a large quantity because they didn't know the purpose. However, Gu Zhuo Zaiyuan and you increased the price crazily, until it reached a price that the boss could not refuse.
When the boss collected the money, his hands were shaking with excitement. He regarded Gu Zhuo as a fool who had nothing to do. The rich second generation did not know that in Gu Zhuo's eyes, money was now as indistinguishable as waste paper.
As for the reasons for prevaricating others, Gu Zhuo has already thought about it. The worst case scenario is that he will tell others that he plans to be the boss of a steel mill. The end is coming anyway, and the money will be nothing more than a pile of waste paper by then, and there is no time to even burn it on the fire.
