Chapter 1688 Waiting for me to return, with my hands in my pockets, I don’t know what an opponent is

Early morning.

Camphor tree base.

Inner city.

Residential building.

Squeak——

He Bing pushed open the window and looked outside, his face full of melancholy.

He returned to the inner city at 12 o'clock last night, and couldn't fall asleep after returning to his residence.

Recently, he has been studying single-person aircraft, and has developed an aircraft that can fly to an altitude of 100 meters and has a flight time of up to 10 minutes.

In this aircraft, people step on a flying tray, carry an energy pack on their backs, and adjust the direction and altitude through the buttons of both hands.

There were also before the end of the world, but this kind of single-person aircraft is very useful in the end of the world, which is also one of his recent research directions.

But the flight time is only 10 minutes, which is extremely useless.

He recently joined forces with the Zombie Research Institute to find the DI element in the zombie body and apply it to the energy of the aircraft.

Zombies are always moving and walking, and they will not die even if they don't eat for a long time. Where does the power come from?

They initially determined that it comes from the mysterious DI element.

But how to apply it to energy is still a state of confusion.

However, He Bing could predict that once this problem could be solved, it would bring about a huge energy revolution.

Only small things can provide great energy support.

De de de~

He Bing shuddered and exhaled a breath of white air.

Looking at the gray sky, "It's getting cold again."

The plants under the residential building were covered with frost and looked wilted.

He Bing closed the window tightly and walked to the bathroom.

Take a hot bath and go to work at the Mechanical Research Institute later.

The buffer city of the big camphor tree base is as busy as ever.

The workers on the construction site are building in an orderly manner.

The heating pipeline of the fourth outer city was also completely completed yesterday.

Next, put all the strength into the residential buildings in the buffer city, so that the laying speed of the heating pipeline can be increased again.

In the current buffer city of the big camphor tree base, except for the boiler factory under construction, the construction of other residential buildings and the transformation of commercial areas have been suspended.

Concentrate on doing this matter.

In addition, thanks to the 2,500 workers who came from the trading market some time ago, the total number of construction workers and transportation workers at the Dazhangshu base has reached 5,500.

The number of people at the Dazhangshu base headquarters has also exceeded the 10,000 mark for the first time.

Among them, there are 2,500 combat personnel affiliated with the military department, 2,000 other base operation and maintenance personnel such as internal affairs, and the rest are construction and transportation personnel.

Not only the Dazhangshu headquarters, during this period, both the North and the Oil City have focused their main efforts on the boiler heating system and the preparation of cold-resistant materials.

Coal, oil, firewood and other cold-resistant reserve energy sources are also stored with the greatest effort.

For example, the North has also stored tens of thousands of tons of oil and tens of thousands of cubic meters of firewood during this period.

As for the headquarters base, the transportation between it and the Oil City has never been interrupted except for natural disasters.

Excluding the consumed oil, 50,000 tons of oil have been stored.

50,000 tons of fuel are enough for the current Dazhangshu headquarters base to use for a long time.

The boiler plant is being built at a speed visible to the naked eye every day.

The equipment in the plant is mainly boilers. The production of boilers is not complicated. During this period, the industrial production department has also concentrated on building many high-power boilers.

In addition, some of these boilers have to be transported to Oil City and the North.

The industrial production capacity in the North and Oil City is far less than that of the Dazhangshu Base.

Although the North has a certain industrial foundation, it lacks corresponding talents and supporting upstream and downstream accessories.

In the Dazhangshu Base, an industrial cluster has been initially formed.

It is relatively simple to produce some industrial equipment.

Wengcheng.

Hundreds of vehicles drove towards the city gate.

It was quite spectacular.

Among them, there were huge boilers on forty semi-trailers.

These boilers are more than ten or twenty meters long and are medium and large boilers.

All were transported to Oil City and the North to provide equipment for boiler factories in the two places.

Yu Lei stood at the door of the Wengcheng main control booth and watched the mighty convoy leave.

He sighed, "I've been in the headquarters base for so long, but I haven't been to the North Territory and Oil City. I don't know what those two places look like. I'll go and see them when I have the chance."

A registration staff member next to him asked curiously:

"Manager Yu, when was Oil City established?"

Yu Lei thought for a while, "It should be three years, I'm not sure, anyway it's been a long time."

"What about the North Territory?"

"It is said that the North Territory used to fight against our base, but was later destroyed by us and occupied that piece of land. The North Territory is far away from our headquarters base."

Yu Lei said, pointing in the direction of the outer city.

"The Natural Disaster Research Institute, as well as the Mechanical, Chemical and Biological Department, there are many people from the North Territory."

The hundreds of experts in the North Territory have joined the Dazhangshu Base for more than a year. After layers of assessment, they have gradually integrated into the Dazhangshu Base. Some stayed in the headquarters base, and some were sent to Oil City to support the development there.

These hundreds of experts were the top talents in the North Territory at the time.

When confronting the North, Li Yu packed up these people and took them away in order to teach them a lesson. At first, Li Yu just wanted to conquer the North peacefully.

Who would have thought that Yuan Zhi was dishonest and acquiesced to one or two extremists among these experts.

The incident led to the inner city being broken into during the foggy disaster, which once threatened the safety of Yutong and Li Yu's parents.

Li Yu was furious and used the most advanced zombie attracting potion at the time in the heavy rain. He put three tubes of potion in the North Territory. The surging zombie tide engulfed the North Territory.

Since then, the North Territory controlled by Yuan Zhi has become history.

Northwest.

ZY City, Sanzha Town.

The door of the broken temple was pushed open.

A man came out, stretched his waist, and walked out with a yawn.

He waved to the back, "Old Zheng, drive the car out."

Zheng Shiwu drove the off-road vehicle, slowly backed up and reversed.

The vehicle moved down the steps little by little.

The black hand next to it followed the movement of the vehicle, and issued instructions to Zheng Shiwu in the car from time to time.

With the cooperation of the two, the off-road vehicle successfully came down from the steps.

This is an off-road vehicle, with a relatively high ground, which can be tossed like this.

If they were driving a sedan, the ground would probably have been scrapped by the steps.

Creak——

Bang!

Black Hand climbed into the car and closed the door.

"Let's go."

Boom boom boom!

The SUV turned around and headed southeast.

If they wanted to bypass Wuyuan Mountain's sphere of influence from ZY City to Xi City, they would either have to go around in a big circle and go from Zhongwei, but this would undoubtedly be a waste of time.

Or they would go from Bai City in the north of Lan City, which would not only avoid Lan City but also reach Xi City as soon as possible.

The route they finally agreed on was to go from Bai City in the north of Lan City.

What they didn't know was that Bai City and the surrounding Gaolan County were the core locations for Wuyuan Mountain to release immature test vaccines.

The two were in a good mood while the vehicle was driving.

This time, each of them would have 500 points, and they would also have the status of a Level 3 personnel.

They knew very well the benefits of the Level 3 personnel status.

At least in the trading market, they would not have to worry about food and drink.

From the original level 5 personnel, after completing a mission, they were directly promoted to level 3 personnel.

If other level 5 personnel saw this promotion speed, they would probably be envious.

However, the work they did this time was worth their reward.

Just two people, crossing more than 2,000 kilometers, breaking through many blockades, taking huge risks along the way, went to the enemy camp to observe the situation of the Northwest Base up close.

And sorted out a lot of first-hand data.

This is not something that ordinary people can do.

If it were ordinary people, they would probably be killed by zombies or robbed by other doomsday thugs before reaching the Northwest Base.

Moreover, only they themselves know the hardships of more than two months.

The car was speeding, and Black Hand used a dagger to cut a piece of roasted antelope meat last night for breakfast.

There was no one on the Northwest Expressway, and the vast world.

There were no twists and turns along the way.

They even increased the speed to 70 kilometers per hour.

It was only twelve o'clock in the afternoon, and they had arrived in Weiwu City.

On the elevated highway in the north of Weiwu City.

Zheng Shiwu saw that there was nothing going on around him, so he stopped the car.

Before getting off the car, he turned on the ultraviolet light installed on the car.

Hei Shou got off the car tacitly, and the two stood by the car with their backs to each other and whistled.

The wind blew the sand on the ground and also blew away their whistles.

After shaking, Hei Shou walked to the driver's seat and sat in.

Zheng Shiwu raised his head and looked around, but did not find anything unusual, so he hurried to the co-pilot.

Boom boom boom——

The vehicle started again.

But this time, Hei Shou became the driver.

Zheng Shiwu drove for four and a half hours in the morning, and Hei Shou drove in the afternoon.

The two took turns driving all the way.

People rest, but the car does not rest, so that they can return to the trading market as quickly as possible.

Whoosh——

A sign appeared in front.

Looking at the sign above, Heishu said with a smile:

"Old Zheng, if the road ahead is so easy, we will probably be able to reach Xishi tomorrow evening. Why don't you contact the people in Oil City and ask them to pick us up the day after tomorrow."

Zheng Shiwu looked at the map and confirmed that they were taking the set route.

He said without raising his head: "Let's talk about it when we get there tomorrow. Anyway, it's the same now or tomorrow."

"Let's talk about it tomorrow. They won't arrive until noon the day after tomorrow."

"Okay."

Heishu held the steering wheel and felt bored after driving the vehicle for a few minutes.

"Tell me, when we return to the trading market, how are you going to spend 500 points?"

Zheng Shiwu shook the map in his hand, put it away, looked out the window and said:

"I haven't thought about it yet. I guess I'll take a few months off first."

500 points, even if they use 5 points a day, are enough for them for 100 days.

The purchasing power of 5 points in the trading market is amazing.

If all of them are used to buy tortillas, they can buy 20 tortillas.

Even if all the money was used to buy wine, it could still buy one and a half bottles of sweet potato wine.

Black Hand said with a smile:

"Oil City promised to give me a sniper rifle. With this sniper rifle, I will be happy."

Zheng Shiwu raised his head and glanced at him, and asked:

"Is it the sniper rifle you brought out now?"

"Yes, when I return to the trading market, this sniper rifle will belong to me, but I will deduct 100 points." Black Hand replied.

Zheng Shiwu looked at Black Hand strangely and continued to ask:

"Didn't they talk to you about the work they will arrange when you return?"

"Ah? No, what do you mean? Didn't you say that you will be treated as a third-level personnel?" Black Hand asked.

"hehe."

Zheng Shiwu smiled and said, "I gave you the treatment of a third-level personnel. Do you think you can enjoy the treatment and don't have to perform the corresponding duties of a third-level personnel?"

"Huh? What kind of job?" Black Hand looked at Zheng Shiwu, "I really haven't understood this before."

Zheng Shiwu replied:

"I talked about this issue with Minister Li. When I go back and become a third-level officer, it's just these kinds of assignments. Or join the patrol team and maintain order in the trading market."

"Either you join the Civil Armed Forces Division and become a member of the Civil Armed Forces Brigade. The work content is relatively complex, depending on which brigade you are assigned to. It mainly involves guarding the wall, guarding the surrounding sentry towers, guarding the transport convoy, and some field search tasks. kind of.”

"These are all part of the combat order, and some are internal affairs. For example, you can work as an employee in an official store, or serve as a senior supervisor at a construction site, but this requires experience."

"As for us, we probably can only join the combat sequence."

Zheng Shiwu told Black Hand what he learned in detail.

"In addition, as a third-level personnel in the combat order, you will be able to assemble firearms. In special circumstances, you can apply to use the gun you want. It mainly depends on your personal ability."

"Fuck!"

Hearing these words, Black Hand reacted.

"You mean, there's no need for me to exchange a hundred points for a sniper rifle, because the fucking oil city will give me a gun??!"

Zheng Shiwu rolled his eyes and talked for a long time. Only now did Black Hand understand.

"Yes, the combat sequence will definitely be equipped with a gun. It is not necessarily a sniper rifle, but your shooting skills are not bad. If you apply to become a sniper, you may actually be equipped with a sniper rifle."

"Oh shit!"

Black Hand couldn't help but cursed:

"Fuck! Then I'm not being taken advantage of! Why do I need this sniper rifle? If I become a sniper, I will give it to me."

"So, when you go back, you can talk to Director Luo and tell him that you don't want it anymore and want the 100 points." Zheng Shiwu said with a smile.

"No wonder Director Luo looked at me like that when I asked for a sniper rifle." Black Hand felt like he was being fooled.

Black Hand rolled his eyes and asked:

"However, in this way, we have completely joined Oil City and worked for Oil City. We will not be so free in the future. I feel very uncomfortable."

"free?"

Zheng Shiwu thought of his former life in the army, and his later life as a mercenary.

"Freedom is only relative, not to mention that now that you have joined Oil City, you have an organization. It is convenient to do anything in the trading market. Do you want to leave the trading market?"

"If you don't leave, there's nothing good to do outside now." Black Hand shook his head and said.

"That's alright. Since you want to stay in the trading market, why don't you be included in the establishment? At least you have the rights. You don't have to worry about earning points every day, and you don't have to go out to take risks."

Zheng Shiwu continued: "Moreover, after officially joining Oil City, our status there is much higher than before."

Black Hand thought about it and realized that this was indeed the case.

After returning to the trading market this time, they could live in the best house in the trading market without spending any money.

There are countless other hidden benefits.

If nothing else, join him on the patrol.

As soon as he put on the green vest, tied the gun belt around his waist, put his hands in his pockets, and walked to the arena.

Liu Zhi, the boss of the Ax Gang he once followed, had to call him brother.

This is status.

(Ask for monthly ticket)
