The transformation of the train was not in the equipment production area, but outside the factory area. A large area was temporarily expanded as a source locomotive manufacturing plant.
The factory was temporarily built and somewhat crude. The exterior construction materials were mainly iron sheets and colored steel plates. The steel plates were of different specifications, and when put together, it looked like an old garment that was sewn with countless patches.
The workers didn't care. It was very warm to have a working environment that could shelter them from the wind and rain. When they came to the shade, they braved the heat or torrential rain to work. Some were even exposed to the threat of demonic beasts. But now, as long as they worked hard enough, they didn't have to worry about not being able to support themselves.
When Tang Yu arrived, he saw a bustling scene.
The docile alienated beast pulled the flatbed, loaded with a large number of materials, and under the control of the coachman, drove into the factory with a cry.
Fighter puppets, basic puppets, working back and forth as coolies.
There were both tamed alienated beasts and automatic puppets. Everything showed the extraordinariness of the Tree Shade. Only the pieced together factory building was a bit of an eyesore.
"Should I use custom construction to build a high-end and atmospheric factory?"
Then he quickly denied, "No! Custom charges are based on square meters. This factory area is so large, God knows how many spirit stones will be sucked away! "
But the temporary factory building was really ugly, and perhaps the quality was equally worrying.
If it was only a source locomotive, the factory building would be enough. But he didn't just want to restore the Green Line. Currently, the railway line from the Tree Shade to the Nanqing Shelter was also being built and repaired.
The distance was much farther than to Lindong, and the journey was more dangerous. But the current territory had the strength.
Not only the Nanqing Shelter, but also several surrounding shelters, Tang Yu wanted to connect through the railway.
Long-distance depends on the airship, and close to the source locomotive.
In the future, if the teleportation array technology is cracked, there's no need to rely on the sub-territory to build. He can also set up teleportation arrays in important areas and build them into important hubs.
There's a long way to go.
Tang Yu's arrival was not ostentatious, but he was still discovered by the sharp-eyed equipment department officials.
One of the officials introduced him, "The power of this eight-carriage Origin Energy locomotive has been modified, and static and dynamic tests have been carried out. Everything is working well. Currently, the outer armor is being reinforced. Once the modification is completed, the speed of the Origin Energy locomotive will reach two to three times that of the original Green Line train. Moreover, it is a real mobile steel barrier. The weapons installed on the locomotive are enough to kill a small Demon Tide."
Tang Yu looked over.
More than half of the Origin Energy locomotive had been modified. Although it was modified with the main body of an ordinary train, it could not be seen what it looked like in the past.
The outer layer was made of an alloy made of extraordinary minerals and iron materials. It was extremely hard and suffused with a black luster. It was like a prehistoric black python lying on the ground. At first glance, it was daunting.
The outer armor of several carriages had been reinforced. At this time, the collision angle was being designed for the front and back of the source locomotive to reach a high speed. Not only was it stable, but it could also directly smash the demonic beast blocking the road into minced meat.
Violent and powerful!
A moving fortress of steel.
Tang Yu patrolled around.
Kevin was not here. He was only responsible for tackling technical problems. Some parts that could not be achieved by conventional technical means, or parts that were not precise enough, could be achieved by inscribing runes and other means.
Kevin had started designing the most difficult source energy output device two months ago. It wasn't until half a month later that he came up with a design blueprint without any mistakes … This was also one of the reasons why he started the "source energy locomotive" transformation plan.
The output device was manufactured by the workshop.
The other parts that were not difficult to make and were available in large quantities, as well as the outer armor layer, were made by the Equipment Department.
Tang Yu found the official in charge of the factory and asked for a while. Finally, he nodded with satisfaction.
The million spirit stones invested were not wasted.
With the first train of source energy locomotives, the second train would soon take shape.
… …
After leaving the factory, Tang Yu took another trip to the train station.
The Green Line was closed. The originally bustling train station became empty again. There was no one at the ticket window. Only two hunters from the garrison corps were stationed here.
He waved his hand to let the two continue to stand guard. He walked to the side of the platform.
Originally, this was both the starting and ending station. Now, the railway was spread further away. Green weeds grew tenaciously from the gravel surface under the railway. Although someone cleaned up near the platform every once in a while, it still looked green.
… …
Nanqing Shelter.
As one of the large shelters, the size of Nanqing was similar to Lindong. Due to its proximity to the Tree Shade, the caravans traveling between the two places brought a lot of rune equipment here.
Looking around, out of ten hunters walking on the street, at least seven or eight of them carried rune weapons produced by the Tree Shade. The remaining two or three belonged to the poor who couldn't even afford E-grade equipment.
Wearing simple animal skins, holding worn-out weapons, walking on the road with their heads down.
People who couldn't afford Tree Shade's equipment wouldn't even be recruited by the mercenary corps.
Turning into the street, the alley suddenly became secluded. No pedestrians could be seen. At the end of the alley, there was a coffee shop with poor business. The wooden door was ajar.
Squeak-
A white and powerful palm pushed open the wooden door. The door trembled slightly, tilting slightly, making people wonder if it would fall.
Lan Qingya walked into the coffee shop.
There were no customers. Only a middle-aged man with a stubble and a leather jacket at the bar. His face was full of melancholy, staring at the ceramic cup in front of him. His right hand was holding a small silver iron spoon, slowly stirring. The iron spoon and the ceramic cup collided, making a crisp sound.
"Hey, Qingya, would you like a cup?"
The middle-aged man who could score 90 points in terms of appearance and temperament opened his mouth and pushed the mixed coffee forward.
Lan Qingya glanced at the coffee. A variety of colors mixed with bubbles from time to time. It was like a dangerous substance often seen in chemical experiments.
She calmly moved two steps to the side and coughed softly, "Uncle Hai, can't you make some normal coffee? If you run this shop well, it wouldn't be so miserable."
"What does a little girl know? Either don't make it, or make it the best. My goal is to make coffee that will sublimate the customers' taste buds." Hai Honghui waved his hand, "What about you? Why did you suddenly come here?"
Lan Qingya said sternly, "I brought a mission. The shelter intends to screen survivors with rune talent in the Southern Qing Dynasty and take them away directly. I need your cooperation."
Hai Honghui shook his coffee cup, "Our Southern Qing branch hasn't had a decent mission for a long time. People are getting rusty."
He raised his head and smiled. He brought the coffee cup to his mouth and took a sip, but his expression suddenly changed. He turned his head to the sink next to him and couldn't help but spit it out. Then, he threw the coffee in his hand away.
