#249 - Chapter 249 [The Killer] (Third update)

The next day.

Just as Qin Jin had said yesterday, early in the morning, Green Source Base dispatched several personnel to form a medical team to carry out the rescue work of survivors in the Green Source area.

Today, they will finish the remaining work.

Those infected people from the sub-base did not leave last night, and were allowed to rest at the sub-base for the night.

At this time, most of these people have recovered greatly and can already get out of bed, walk, and take care of themselves.

Although they are still a little far from returning to work, it is estimated that it will not take two days. Green Source Base generously reduced their work for these two days and continued to distribute corresponding food.

These people were naturally grateful and praised Green Source's good name.

The cadres will continue to follow up and deal with this matter.

Early in the morning.

Qin Jin did not stay in the leader's office, but came to another place in the main base.

The Research and Development Department.

Located in a warehouse in a corner of the main base.

Qin Jin came here and found Li Xu, who was already at work.

"How is the situation here recently?"

He asked straight to the point.

At this time, Li Xu was wearing a fireproof suit with a lot of stains. He had just taken off a pair of thick fireproof gloves and pushed the goggles on his face to his head before saying to the leader:

"There has been some progress recently!"

As he said that, he led Qin Jin further into the department, all the way to a relatively spacious room with several lights illuminating a strange machine in the middle.

Its shape is like a turtle lying on its stomach, with a height of four to five meters and a length and width of nearly ten meters. Jagged saws and dark holes are distributed on the entire machine's "turtle shell".

"This is the 【Annihilator】 we are currently building!"

Arriving here, Li Xu couldn't help but reveal an excited expression, and continued to explain to Qin Jin as if offering a treasure:

"Look at the saw blades on it! We have installed a full 16 saw blades, distributed in all directions on the machine's surface!"

"And look at those holes, each of which can eject a 2-meter-long cylindrical saw knife! Any flesh and blood body will definitely be pierced through after being stabbed!"

"And and and! Look at those smaller holes on top, those holes can spray fuel oil! They can also be changed to shooting holes, and you can use fuel oil or bullets to eliminate all enemies at any time!"

Li Xu became more and more excited as he spoke, gesticulating while introducing.

"We use crawler-type travel for the chassis, directly using parts removed from damaged tanks transported back from the military region before. In the future, the 【Annihilator】 will be able to adapt to various terrains except for swimming!"

"It's a pity that it hasn't been completely completed yet. We are still integrating the power system. We plan to use 6 eight-cylinder engines and 24 small motors to assist in driving. The overall structural rigidity and internal space are still being optimized. It will probably take some time to completely complete it."

Qin Jin listened and looked at the "Steel Turtle" in front of him, and couldn't help but nod.

It is indeed a bit fierce.

Just the electric saws and retractable saw knives on it, once zombies get close, they will definitely die no matter how many come!

There is no shortage of ranged weapons either.

As long as the power system is completed, putting this steel behemoth into the pile of corpses in the future will definitely be a terrifying meat grinder!!

Imagine that scene, after the machine is started, the zombies come one after another, all cut into残肢碎肉, it's so cool!

"Not bad!"

Qin Jin first affirmed the Research and Development Department's design of the new weapon, and also raised some of his own questions and opinions.

"How many people will it take to start this machine in the future? And how long is the estimated battery life?"

Li Xu, of course, knew these design points very well. Without thinking, he could blurt out:

"We designed it so that 3 people can start this machine! The most important thing about this machine is actually the power system. It needs a vehicle commander to observe, a driver to operate, and a loader. Generally, after arriving at the 'construction' location, three people can concentrate on operating weapons to kill zombies."

"Battery life is indeed a problem. The fuel tank capacity we designed is about 2 tons! But the 【Annihilator】's full power start-up consumes very terrifying amounts per minute... It is estimated that it can only run continuously for 3-4 hours..."

Speaking of the latter words, Li Xu was a little embarrassed, because this time could not satisfy a zombie siege war.

"If possible, increase the fuel tank, preferably to ensure full power operation for more than 6 hours!"

Qin Jin made a request, but he didn't finalize it.

In his impression, the corpse fog days will often come in the future, short ones lasting a few hours or half a day, and long ones lasting a day or two or even several days.

So he hopes to maintain at least half a day or night. This kind of battery life will greatly reduce the base's defense pressure.

"Also."

"Add a self-destruct device!"

"If you encounter an irreversible situation, at least you have the ability to perish together!"

Words full of rich bloody smell spewed out from Qin Jin's mouth.

Li Xu did not refute, he was already accustomed to the Green Source leader's way of doing things

This is very President Qin.

He recorded the leader's request on paper and will see how to design and optimize it later.

"Make this machine as soon as possible, and there can't be only one, at least three or five! The more of this kind of thing, the better!"

"If you need any manpower or material resources, just ask! I will coordinate and arrange it when I go back."

After the Annihilator was almost finished visiting, Qin Jin said casually.

Hearing this, Li Xu's eyes lit up, and he followed the leader's words and said:

"President Qin, then I'll really not be polite! I really need to ask you for someone."

"Oh? Who is it?"

Qin Jin was a little curious.

"A car repairman named Chen Gang!"

Chen Gang!?

Qin Jin quickly searched in his mind and quickly locked on a person.

"Is that the one who came to our base at the end of last year?"

"Yes! It's Chen Gang who came with Wang Wei!"

"You probably can't imagine that although this person has not attended university, he is not only proficient in the maintenance and modification of various vehicles, but also has a deep understanding of machinery! He must have specialized in relevant mechanical materials before! Many parts of our 【Annihilator】 were solved by him!"

"Now he still lives in Residential Area 1, and can only come over to help me during the day. I want to transfer him to the sub-base, so that he can come over at night, and our improvement speed will definitely be greatly improved!"

Does this person have this kind of ability?

Qin Jin also did not expect that the middle-aged man who had caused an incident before actually had such a skill.

"Okay! I'll say hello to you and transfer this person to the sub-base, and complete this 【Annihilator】 as soon as possible! And produce a few more!"

He directly made the decision.

As the leader, arranging a person is just a matter of one sentence.

Li Xu also breathed a sigh of relief when he heard this. With more manpower, completing the task later should not be a big problem.

Seeming to remember something, he suddenly said to Qin Jin again:

"By the way, President Qin! I was only busy introducing the Annihilator just now, and almost forgot another thing! Please come with me!"

He pulled the puzzled Qin Jin to another room not far away.

It was relatively empty inside. After turning on the lights, I saw a large platform covered by a curtain.

I don't know what's inside.

"President Qin, didn't you ask me to build a weapon for you before?"

"It's done now!"
