Chapter 1774 National Top
The whole team was ignited by this sudden hope. The fatigue from the previous mission and the hardships of the journey were now overshadowed by the anticipation of their loved ones.
As they watched the Youzhou base draw ever closer, only one thought occupied their minds:
Get to the base quickly, find out about your family quickly, and confirm that they are all safe and sound.
This expectation, more than any other motivation, sustained them through this final leg of their journey.
The convoy continued forward, passing through the outer buffer zone and gradually approaching the main city wall. Following the direction Qin Fenglin pointed, Li Luo saw the scene of the second ring.
It was an area enclosed by a protective fence as high as 8 meters, inside which stood several white, modern laboratory buildings, their clean and tidy facades contrasting sharply with the desolation outside.
Looking through the bulletproof windows of the armored vehicle, several neat, enclosed factory buildings and warehouses were distributed around the experimental building. The chimneys had long been removed and replaced by concealed exhaust gas purification pipes, with no exhaust gas emissions throughout the process. It was clearly a pollution-free production model that combined superpowers and technology.
"This is the research and industrial production area, which can be considered the 'core power engine' of the Youzhou base." Qin Fenglin's voice rang out, his tone full of pride in the strength of the base. "Those white buildings are the core of the research area, which gathers the top research teams in the country. After all, B City is the center of our country. After the outbreak of the apocalypse, the country immediately gathered biologists, physicists, and superpower researchers from all over the country here. The talent pool is definitely among the best in the country."
He paused, his gaze falling on Li Luo, and added deliberately:
"The research is mainly focused on three areas: the origin and suppression of the zombie virus, the analysis of the evolution mechanism of superpowers, and the basic research and development of new superpower-adapted weapons. The research team is currently building a complete experimental system. The purification system and superpower protection devices in the core laboratory have just been debugged. The research has just gotten on track, and it will take some time before we can see any results. But with so many top talents and concentrated resources, breakthroughs are only a matter of time."
"The equipment inside is top-of-the-line from a pre-apocalyptic national-level laboratory, and it's even been modified to be compatible with superpowers," Li Nana added, pointing through the car window at the white buildings.
"This industrial zone looks pretty ordinary, but are there some good things hidden inside?" Shi Xinxin leaned against the car window, curiously looking at the factory buildings, and couldn't help but ask.
“This is no ordinary industrial zone; it’s a truly innovative system tailor-made for the post-apocalyptic era of superpowers. Every single aspect is deeply intertwined with superpowers!” Li Nana’s tone was calm yet couldn’t hide her approval as she explained clearly without any unnecessary exaggeration. “The division of labor is extremely detailed, and everything is practically usable. Only City B could concentrate so many resources and talents to be the first to develop such a practical industrial model.”
She pointed to the factory buildings in the distance, speaking calmly and clearly:
"The innermost building is a superpowered weapon factory. They can embed superpowered cores into weapons, such as installing a 'superpower channel' on firearms. Fire-type superpowered users can use it to fire condensed fireballs, which are much more powerful than releasing superpowers directly. Lightning-type superpowered users can use it to create chain arcs of electricity, which is perfect for dealing with the hard shells of zombies. They can also make 'elemental core guns'. Ordinary people can install corresponding crystal cores to fire some low-level elemental attacks. Although they are not top-notch, they at least give ordinary people the ability to fight against zombies instead of having to hide."
