There was still enough energy, as long as it maintained this speed.
Jiang Chen let out a sigh of relief and stopped increasing the output of the turbine engine.
"Be gentle!" Lin Lin twisted her body in dissatisfaction and stared at Jiang Chen who was "carrying" her.
"Shut up and behave." Jiang Chen turned on the speaker and said emotionlessly.
"Woo! My ears. "Lin Lin covered her ears in pain. This time, she didn't dare to stare at Jiang Chen.
Don't misunderstand, the volume was definitely turned up on purpose.
In the end, Jiang Chen didn't do it. This girl didn't even realize that she just took a trip to the gates of hell.
Building a biosphere on the wasteland was indeed useless to him, but it was not completely useless.
From another perspective, it was a subproject of the interstellar colonization plan. Space? Although it was still a bit far away, it was better to keep it.
…
Seeing that the girl finally shut up, Jiang Chen didn't bother with her anymore. Instead, he glanced at the "goods" hanging behind him.
All in all, the resources in the fallout shelter were quite abundant. There were even vacuum preserved compressed biscuits. But Jiang Chen wasn't interested in carrying the mummy food on him. The only thing that surprised him was that as a digitalized human, Lin Lin, she also needed to eat.
He originally thought she only needed to charge.
All in all, this could be described as a bountiful harvest.
The Hummingbird drone production equipment could be used to produce the plate-sized multi-purpose rotor drone. With a fire extinguisher, it would be a fire extinguisher drone. With a gun, it would be an attack drone. With a probe, it would be a warning drone. It was the standard configuration for PAC's drone attack cluster.
This production equipment would be impossible to find in the entire Wanghai city. To be able to find it in the fallout shelter was a complete surprise. Since military production equipment was the focus of attention during wartime, civilian fallout shelters usually didn't have this type of military production line.
Even if there were people selling drones at the Sixth Street, most of them were handmade using recycled parts.
He could ask Yao Yao to design a drone warning program, and the patrol around the base could be left to these gadgets. He could even build a drone swarm with machine guns. Imagine, if someone came to the Fishbone base looking for trouble and encountered a swarm of drones, what kind of expression would they have on their faces?
There was also the case lying in the storage dimension. If he created the virtual reality MMORPG, Future Technology's trillion-dollar market value would have to add another zero. But of course, taking it out directly in the Modern Realm would definitely be courting death. The supercomputer, which was more than 100 years behind in terms of technology, was different from Little White, which had no military value. He was afraid that the agents of various countries would crazily crawl into his office. As for when to add this 0, let's talk about it later.
There were also some scattered equipment that Lin Lin strongly requested to bring along. It was said to be experimental equipment? Although Jiang Chen complained that these "garbage" could only be sold for two or three crystals at the Sixth Street recycling station, the girl immediately looked at him with disdain.
Mhmm, then when she saw Jiang Chen was about to leave, she immediately cried and apologized.
In short, he brought the production equipment that was the size of a bookcase with him. The total weight was around three tons. Including the weight of the equipment, it didn't exceed the T-3 power armor's maximum weight of five tons. As to Lin Lin's weight, it was only around 80 pounds, which was negligible.
Non-combat digitalized humans didn't have any weapon modules installed on them, so they were usually lighter than normal people.
…
Cheers and whistles rang out, almost penetrating the cold outer shell of the armor.
The zombie tide had already retreated.
The hibernation chambers that were infected with parasites were all destroyed, and no more bacteria would be born from the deep pit.
The survivors looked at Jiang Chen as if he was a hero. The vigilance and suspicion in their eyes were all gone, leaving only a strong sense of respect.
To be honest, it was quite satisfying to be looked at like this.
Jiang Chen smiled at the people who cheered for him before he put his attention back on the dashboard.
He had already escaped from the deep pit, and his feet were suspended above the ground.
Jiang Chen operated the switch of the engine as he slowly reduced the output power to allow the goods suspended by the steel cable to gently touch the ground.
After he confirmed that everything was in place, he felt relieved. He then lowered the output power of the engine and landed on the ground.
Sun Jiao ordered the survivors to move the loot onto the armored vehicle. Because most of the ammunition was used up, there was enough space to place these things.
Of course, there was still a lack of space. To make space, Jiang Chen announced that they would "split the loot" on the spot, which drew a wave of cheers.
To be honest, the survivors were all prepared for the people in metal armor to take all the crystals because it was common in the apocalypse. Promises were only a joke in front of absolute power.
Because it was a defensive battle, although everyone looked exhausted, the actual loss was not high. But when they encountered the powerful zombies like Roshan, the survivors unfortunately left behind seven bodies. As to the soldiers in power armor, none of them were fine since most of the zombies in the rural area couldn't break through the steel defense.
The 130 survivors lined up according to their own groups. Some had eight people, while others only had one person. However, everyone was able to get their share. Based on the agreed distribution plan and records, each group sent a representative to receive the crystals from the armored vehicle.
The total revenue was four hundred thousand crystals. After deducting the cost of the bullets, it was split at 50%. The Fishbone base's revenue was one hundred and forty thousand crystals. This was almost the same amount as the previous month's trade. If it weren't for the fact that the zombies that were nurtured by the X2 bacteria were almost all wiped out, a monthly cleanup would be a great way to earn money.
Jiang Chen and Sun Jiao walked to the side after distributing the tasks.
Sun Jiao opened the helmet.
"Who is she?" Sun Jiao looked at Jiang Chen with a half-smile as she pointed at Lin Lin who was tightly wrapped in the orange protective suit.
"Me? Of course, I am the noble digitalized human Lin Lin. Thank me, lowly student … "
The previously strong voice immediately weakened when it met Sun Jiao's dangerous eyes. Lin Lin shivered as she shrank back and hid behind the man she cursed as a "demon."
"My slave. The specific situation is a bit complicated. In short … "Jiang Chen glanced at Lin Lin who was glaring at him angrily before he briefly explained what happened underground.
"Ahem, in order to prevent you from having some strange misunderstandings, I have to make it clear that she is only my captive." Seeing Sun Jiao's expression, he immediately knew what she was thinking as he added with a bitter smile.
"Oh? Then I can torture her however I want? "Sun Jiao smirked at the girl who didn't look friendly at her.
Lin Lin was immediately frightened by Sun Jiao's stare as she shivered and shrank back.
"What, what are you doing? I, I have … "
"Ahem." Jiang Chen coughed and interrupted Lin Lin's words. "Be nice to her, but don't let her leave the mansion."
Sun Jiao looked confusedly at the blushing Lin Lin and then looked at Jiang Chen with a questioning look.
Jiang Chen sighed as he gave Lin Lin a warning look before he whispered into Sun Jiao's ear.
"The can resume farming."
Sun Jiao first paused before she narrowed her eyes and stared at Lin Lin.
[Resume farming? Doesn't that mean the Fishbone base's advantage will no longer exist?]
Although it was tempting to restore the ecology, she subconsciously thought from Jiang Chen's point of view as she began to look at Lin Lin with hostility.
"Do we …"
"No, the base lacks high-end technical talents. Just keep her. I believe it won't take long for her to understand the dangers of the outside world. By that time, even if we chase her away, she won't leave. "Seeing Lin Lin start to tremble, Jiang Chen let out a sigh.
"Mhmm." Sun Jiao nodded and then looked at Lin Lin with malicious intent. "If you dare to run away, hehe."
Fear was written all over Lin Lin's face as her legs began to tremble.
She began to regret coming out of the virtual world. The expression on this woman's face always made her feel like she left the wolf's den and entered the tiger's mouth.
She didn't understand why she would be treated this way when she clearly possessed the technology to save the world. She finally showed some kindness and was ready to help the pitiful people struggling in the ruins and then enjoy the worship of the inferior creatures …
Just thinking about it made her feel wronged. Lin Lin pouted as tears of humiliation rolled down her cheeks.
With her experience in the virtual world, she naturally wouldn't understand. If Jiang Chen really gave her freedom and let her stand on the street of the Sixth Street and shout, "My brain contains all the data of !"
Mhmm, even if it was stored in her intestines, people could dig it out.
"Let's put this aside for now. Put the body of the Death Claw and bring it back for research. The crystals should be all given out. Then, it's time to go home. "
When Sun Jiao heard go home, a smile appeared on her face as she nodded.
"Mhmm, go home!"
…
Singing the song of victory, they openly walked through the street filled with corpses.
The survivors put their arms around each other's shoulders as they cheered, laughed, and left their sadness behind as they walked in the direction of home with victory.
The crisis had been resolved, and there would be no zombies on this street in the short term. Even if the zombies in the city center would soon be attracted by the smell of blood and devour the bodies of their own kind to reoccupy these streets. But that would only happen in a week or two.
This was their first victory against zombies.
For many years, they only hid in the shadows of the ruins and curled up in the intact corridors. This was the first time they united under the same flag and initiated an offensive against the previously arrogant zombies.
This could be described as a victory.
At least they could walk on the once lost street with their heads held high. They could make a ruckus without worrying about disturbing the surrounding zombies because they were all dead.
The sense of honor was such a magical thing.
It originated from force and came from victory.
Once it was engraved in the heart, even the lowly could muster up the courage.
Of course, the premise of all this was that Jiang Chen possessed overwhelming strength, or else these people would not be united like this.
"Should we take the opportunity to recruit them?" Sun Jiao asked in the private channel.
Jiang Chen's team still maintained a prismatic formation. The power armor soldiers surrounded the armored vehicle in the center as they walked behind the survivors.
As to Lin Lin, she was tied up by Sun Jiao and thrown into the trunk of the armored vehicle along with the pile of broken parts.
As to her insignificant protest?
Well, if she could be stubborn for three seconds, perhaps Sun Jiao would concede. But with her personality that didn't match her courage, the method of provoking anger and immediately showing cowardice would only attract others to bully her.
She still didn't seem to be aware of it? Perhaps it was because before when she was angry, people would compromise. But in the apocalypse, who cared about you? Habits were born from spoiling, so Jiang Chen turned a blind eye to Sun Jiao tying her up and disciplining her.
It was time to teach her a lesson.
"No, even if we bring them to the base now, it would be a problem. Especially since I need them to promote our strength in their nest. " Jiang Chen looked at the survivors who were all in high spirits and had bulging pockets. He couldn't help but laugh.
"So you purposely sent them home?" Sun Jiao teased.
"Flaunting power is always better than using force …" Jiang Chen laughed.
"NO-!"
A heart-wrenching roar came from the front of the team.
Jiang Chen paused for a moment, looked at Sun Jiao, and then walked to the front of the team.
The survivors gathered in a circle and stopped in silence. The man who was just chatting with his new brother was now kneeling in front of the door with sorrow in his eyes.
"Happened-" Just as he was about to ask what happened, Jiang Chen, who passed through the crowd, suddenly noticed something behind the door.
It was a boy's head with his eyes open.
Blood flowed on the ground.
