Lord of War

Chapter 619 Flash of Destruction

From the Jurian Mountains to the northwest, the mountain gradually transitions into a plain. This is a silent wilderness. At a glance, there are only low mutatic trees on the flat terrain, and this is a region where even mutatic beasts are rare. For higher things, only those curved towers still stand tenaciously on the surface like ricke giants. An old road that has been covered by wind and sand passes through the earth, and the road is sometimes broken and damaged. It passes through the plain and enters a primitive forest. The trees in the forest are much larger than in the old days. They look like spruce and pine trees, but they are thicker than the above two species. The towering giant trees that need to be embraced by more than a dozen people form this primitive forest like covering the earth, and there are hundreds of and even more mutant beasts here.

The highway will completely disappear when it arrives here. If someone counts, they will find that the forest extends to the warm area to the south at a speed of about 3 to 5 kilometers per year. This extremely aggressive phenomenon is not uncommon in the new era, and everything does its best to plunder the remaining resources in order to survive. Human beings are no exception, animals and plants.

The end of the forest is an undulating mountain range. In the map of Asgard, it shows the name "Osga" which means the end of the continent. The Osgar Mountains are undulating, but the altitude is not high. From a distance, it is more like a huge dam, stopping the forest from going north. There is an artificial tunnel in Osgar Mountain, which seems to have been dug in the old days. The tunnel is still well preserved, but there are no power facilities, making the nearly-kilometer-long tunnel shrouded in darkness for many years.

In the tunnel, it is the territory of living corpses. Those living dead occupied here and obtained a few habitats.

After the tunnel is a dry river, and there is a gate bridge that can be lifted to connect the plains on the other side of the river. Through this gate bridge, we can know that there should be ships coming and going on the river in the old era, otherwise the gate bridge will lose its meaning. The same is true. The outline of several ships can be faintly seen in the upper reaches of the dry river, but they have become a pile of carved copper and iron, becoming the "houses" of some wilderness drifters.

At the end of the plain connected by the gate bridge is an abandoned seaside city. The city is not large, but it is full of buildings and facilities. It looks like a prosperous city. Skyscrapers, straight roads, overpass, parks, factories and even have a playground in the south of the city. I don't know how many years the lonely Ferris wheel has been watching the city.

Although the city has been abandoned, it is by no means quiet. The playground to the south of it has become some human habitat. They occupied this relatively open place and lived in the office building and various facilities of the original amusement park. Other parts of the city have long been a paradise for dangerous muta Beasts and living corpses, and people live here to abide by many harsh rules. For example, you can't make too much noise during the day, otherwise it will attract the patronage of mutanormal beasts or living corpses. Men need to take risks in the city to get back a few living materials from the mouths or claws of other terrible creatures.

It's just that these lives don't seem to last long, so a leader of the settlement put forward a proposal for migration. Before that, they should store as much food as possible. However, more than two months ago, some strangers came to the city. On that day, as usual, the sky was shrouded in radiation clouds, and the eternal sky brought almost desperate oppression to the earth. That morning, when the men in the settlement were about to venture into the city as usual, they heard gunshots.

After the gunfire, there was a loud gunfire, and even a sharp sound when the missile dragged its flame tail and roared through the sky. That seemingly ordinary morning, the city fell into a fire of war. After the war between outsiders and mutening beasts lasted for three days and two nights, half of the city block near the harbor was almost razed. A bold man looked around the area and brought back shocking news.

The body!

The bodies of countless mutan beasts, which usually seem to be fierce, turned into charred corpses by the flames of war this morning. Soldiers in protective clothing are cleaning up the battlefield, and more have begun to build defense lines and sentry towers, which seem to designating the harbor block as a protected area. This makes the people in the settlement happy and afraid. The happy thing is that these outsiders have almost emptied the muta animals in the south street. What they are afraid is that this dangerous neighbor does not know what kind of threat it will pose to them.

And obviously, fear overwhelm happiness. Soon, outsiders discovered the existence of the settlement, and then a group of soldiers visited the amusement park in the afternoon. The officer leading the team proposed a condition that the settlement could not refuse. They needed workers and hoped that the people in the settlement could work for them. The condition is that all the exiles in the amusement park can live within their defenses and pay them a small salary. These salaries can't make them rich, but they can buy necessary living materials from them.

No one will refuse this condition, right? So the people in the settlement quickly completed this short migration, and soon outsiders began to rebuild the area. The necessary defense lines were built in two days. They divided safety and dangerous areas with barbed wire. Sentinels and anti-aircraft guns became inaccessible barriers for wandering mutated beasts in dangerous areas, especially artillery tanks that people in a settlement had only seen in old-era magazines, and became their hearts. The protector in.

After the defense line was pulled up, the people of the settlements began to build factories and reservoirs under the command of outsiders. Among them, the well-informed leaders told everyone that it is very likely that outsiders will build water purification factories and food synthesis factories, which are almost necessary facilities for people to survive in the new era. These outsiders may stay here for a long time.

Soon, when a building similar to a power station began to be built, everyone affirmed this idea.

It turns out that these people are right. In two months, the water purification plant and food synthesis plant have been basically completed. It is said that it is a factory. In fact, the shell of the factory is built, but some necessary equipment is pulled into the defense area through trucks and can be put into use after assembly. At this time, the people living in the settlement had turned into workers in these factories and embarked on the production line after the simple training of outsiders.

They don't know what these outsiders are going to do, but occasionally from each other's conversations, they seem to have plans to turn this place into a permanent seaport city, which makes people in the original settlement happy. Finally, they don't have to worry about their livelihood. As long as they work hard, they have hope to survive.

This day is as usual. At seven o'clock in the morning, workers came to the factory one after another. The power station was completed yesterday, and the cable connecting the factory was installed last night. Those station units began to work this morning, which made it possible for the two factories to go into operation. When the workers entered the factory, a special convoy came from the direction of the entrance and exit of the defense area.

Several tractors pulled a huge thing from the other side of the road, which was wrapped in a thick waterproof cloth, and there were traction components installed underneath, and I don't know what it was under the waterproof cloth. But at least the workers know why the main road to the port is so wide when the defense zone is planned. It turned out to be for this thing today.

After the mysterious object are several off-road vehicles, with some men and women sitting on them. To the surprise of the workers, these people were not wearing protective clothing, and they were directly exposed to the radiation-filled air. But it seems that they don't care. Workers have heard that only those legendary capable people can be exposed to radiation-filled air without giving birth to mutatic tissue like ordinary people.

One of the men made the workers curious. He was a black-haired and yellow-skinned Asian. And his eyes turned out to be two completely different pupils, one black and one gold!

He withdrew his eyes to the oncoming workers and said to the smart brain screen with no use of accident: "The progress here is surprisingly fast. Power stations, water purification plants and food factories have been built. I heard that the facilities in the port part are still preserved and can be used as long as they are maintained and repaired as necessary. Your people are very efficient, and the Harbour City plan has taken a key step.

On the smart screen, Beatrice wearing a helmet looked proud: "Of course, if it weren't for this kind of efficiency, how could I make Black Rose and the other two families equal in just over a decade."

"I know you can do it in every way." Zero said with puns. Looking at Beyonris's angry face on the other side of the screen, he smiled and asked, "Is the construction of the City of Dawn going well?"

"It's going well. We have eliminated dangerous organisms in the southern part of the city. Thanks to the previous Golden Tomahawk fought here, it has helped us kill many muta Beasts in advance. So it's better to clean up than to pick up leaks. In short, we have designated a safe area, which will become the cornerstone of the whole dawn city.

"The materials, workers and other people and things needed have been in place one after another. Well, the one behind me is the workstation of the future Neceres Shield..." Beatrice moved the screen back and saw a construction site behind her. The purification device workstation has a general architectural outline. On the bracket of this workstation, various instruments and workers are working.

"That's good, Brown and Eva and I have sent them there. Brown will help you manage the city's defense and army soldiers. Eva and Dr. Cod will continue to be responsible for the development of the Burning Legion. Soon, our Dawn City will have its own biochemical Legion, and you can let them clean up dangerous creatures in other parts of the city. You will find that they will be the bravest soldiers. As for the command, it is currently in Dr. Curd's hands, but he will give several command terminals to you and Brown. Zero added: "Also, Eva, Dr. Corder and Brown are all powerful people. If there is a strong enemy or alien creature that ordinary soldiers can't defeat, remember to call their power.

"I know, let's go to work. Remember to say goodbye to me when you leave. Beatrice kissed the screen and then turned off the video communication with a smile.

It can be seen that the beautiful owner of the black rose is now refreshed and his mind is focused on the construction of the city of dawn.

"Sometimes I really envy Sister Beisi. She is always so confident." Leah next to her suddenly said.

Zero smiled and said, "Lia, don't underestimate yourself. You are also very good. You have completed the promotion in just two months. Now you are an insight in the perception field, aren't you?

"Unfortunately, I still don't have a main battle ability, which can only help you." Leah said with a wry smile.

"Lia, although most of the capable people are mainly combat-oriented, don't underestimate the role of auxiliary capable people. From a war to a team competition, if you make reasonable use of auxiliary capabilities, it can often play a role in reversing the situation. Zero Zheng color said, "No ability is useless, even if it looks inconspicuous."

Seeing zero so seriously, Leah stuck out her tongue and said, "I know, head."

Hearing her call herself like Feng, Zero shook her head and smiled, and inadvertently held Leah's hand. Feeling the warmth of Zero's palm, Leah took the opportunity to lean against Zero's side and enjoyed the warmth of this moment.

Soon, the convoy came to the port and stopped. Leah reluctantly let go of Zero's palm, and the two got out of the car together. Soldiers have begun to remove the tarpaulins on the Destiny, and several cranes were in place early in the morning, and they would put the Destiny into the water. After more than two months of maintenance and partial modification, today is an important day for the trial of Destiny.

The damaged part of Destiny has been repaired with other materials, but due to different materials, the repaired part and the shell of other parts of the fuselage are always under different pressure. This is one of the reasons why the spacecraft cannot fly in the air, and another important reason is the damage of the wings. The original six wings are now intact. Fortunately, their function of transforming energy through the light source is still there, otherwise the energy system of the spacecraft will become a headache.

In the process of cracking the spacecraft system, Billy and several other engineers discovered several important systems of Destiny. One is the defense system, which can generate an energy shield outside the spacecraft through the transformation of energy. Theoretically, the spacecraft can withstand any attack before the shield energy is exhausted.

The other is the weapon system, but the weapon system is much more complex than the defense system. Billy and several engineers worked day and night, but only found a way to use one of the weapons. It is a particle beam main gun at the bottom of the bow, but because there is no place to test the gun in Asgard, there is no data for reference at present.

In addition to the main gun, there is also a barrel on the left and right sides of Destiny. According to Zero's memory, he once saw the instrument records of the spacecraft personnel that it was two anti-matter guns. The spacecraft has other auxiliary weapons and even a mobile fort. It's just that these weapons have been encrypted with passwords, and they can't be cracked for a while.

In order to supplement the spacecraft's weapon system, Dr. Cord and Billy designed a set of portable weapons and equipment for Destiny, which are several heavy fire equipment such as several anti-aircraft cannons and missile systems installed on it. Of course, these weapons cannot pass through the spacecraft's system. Control requires additional manual control.

In addition to the three most important systems of power, weapons and defense. Considering the need for a long voyage, Billy and the engineers also installed two important survival equipment, a water separator and a small food synthesizer, on the spacecraft. The water separator can separate the contents by extracting seawater and extracting the purified water, while the radiation and other impurities can be discharged back into the sea. As for food synthesizers, they can produce tasteless but high-calorie nutrients. It tastes bad, but it is cheaper and easy to produce. The raw materials bought from Asgard are enough for people on board for several years.

However, no one wants to eat something worse than toothpaste all the time. The food synthesizer can only provide the most basic survival protection for the people on board.

At the entrance where Zero and others got off the bus, an important member of the Black Rose family in charge of the planning and construction of the seaport came up to greet Zero. This is a man in his thirties named Coleman. Coleman's suit, leather shoes, cut his head, and wears a silver-framed glasses, look like a white-collar worker in the old days. After shaking hands with Zero, he said, "Nice to meet you, my lord."

"Call me zero." Zero smile said.

"No, how can that work?" Coleman said in fear, "If our owner knows that he is so disrespectful to adults, I won't have a good life."

Looking at him as if he doesn't look like a joke, Zero is not only curious about how Beyonce's little woman did it. Coleman added, "After receiving the order from the head of the family, my subordinates brought people to the city. At present, the plan of Harbour City has been implemented smoothly. We have established an effective safe area, and the three major recycling systems of food, clean water and energy have been initially built and are now put into use. As for the most important port part, because most of the facilities here are still well preserved, except that some metal equipment needs to be replaced by seawater erosion, others will not have too many problems. At least, there is no difficulty in ensuring that Destiny will be piloted and equipped with a special dock.

"Very good, what's the next plan for this harbor city?" Zero asked again.

Coleman replied, "The owner of the family wants not only to build a special dock, but also to repair the whole city. In fact, I have always had the idea of rebuilding since I discovered the city, but the reconstruction plan has been stranded due to disproportionate cost and use value. Now the City of Dawn near the Shadow Canyon is under construction, and the alien federation of the West tundra is also getting along well with us, so the reconstruction of this city can provide a transit station for waterway transportation for our future commercial trade. As the first port city in the mainland of China, the family owner has high hopes for it, and we also believe that with the footprints of Lord Zero cross the endless sea. Soon, this place will become a prosperous city!"
