1211 The preparations before the operation
In the midst of the boring wait, the day of extreme darkness finally passed.
During this time, although there were several waves of radioactive monsters that came to the place where Morris and the others lived, they did not attack the cave. They only roared for a while and then slowly left.
While the abandoned people rejoiced, they also thought that they had disguised themselves well enough, so the monsters did not discover the location of the cave.
However, Uncle Jim and Morris did not think so. After all, the neighbor’s cave was hidden even more cleverly, but it was still discovered by the radiation monsters. How could they not find them, who were only a hundred meters away?
Therefore, the real reason why the monster did not invade them was most likely related to Tang Zhen!
This was indeed the case. It was the aura that Tang Zhen deliberately emitted that scared away the low-level monsters that were not even considered cannon fodder in the tower world so as to prevent them from disturbing his rest.
When the day of extreme darkness passed and the sun reappeared on the horizon, the important annual activity of the abandoned people was about to begin.
Due to the destruction caused by the radioactive monsters during day of extreme darkness, the defense of the monster cities would be greatly weakened. The abandoned people would take this opportunity to sneak into the monster cities and search for food seeds that they could bring back to sow.
In order to have enough food, none of the abandoned people would give up such an opportunity. They would send the strongest group of people in their group to participate in this grand event!
“Sir, are you really coming with us to the monster City to search for food seeds?”
Morris had a trace of excitement on his face as he followed behind Tang Zhen and asked.
“I’ve already said it three times. If you continue to talk nonsense, do you believe that I’ll kick your butt open?”
Ever since the bloody battle with the radioactive monsters that night, Morris ‘entire person seemed to have changed a little. Although his character was still as carefree as before, there was a faint trace of fierceness in his temperament.
As expected, only through the baptism of blood and life and death battles could a man completely grow up!
Uncle Jim, who was at the side, smiled and put on the simple equipment one by one with nimble hands and feet. Every action of his seemed to be very serious.
To the abandoned people, every time they entered a Monster City, there was a possibility that they would never return. Therefore, maintaining their peak condition would have a huge impact on the success of the operation.
Due to Tang Zhen’s participation, Morris and the rest had increased their confidence by quite a bit. Their faces would occasionally reveal a smile. It was obvious that they were extremely looking forward to the harvest of this operation.
If they were lucky enough, they would not have to worry about food for the next year!
Tang Zhen stood at the entrance of the cave and silently sized up the busy people.
After a few days of living together, he and the other abandoned people had gradually become familiar with each other. Now that he saw them wearing simple equipment and using rough stone tools to fight, he could not help but shake his head slightly.
With such simple equipment, even if they were to face a radioactive monster, they would still have a slim chance of survival, let alone enter a city controlled by robots. Once they encountered armed robots with heavy firepower, they would not even have the ability to resist.
If he wanted to protect himself, he had to at least have a decent weapon!
Since they were already familiar with each other, it wasn’t impossible to give them a few. However, the weapons in his storage space were basically all custom-made, so the abandoned people couldn’t use them at all.
The best way was to make a batch on the spot.
He had downloaded such a mobile application before. It could easily build all kinds of mechanical items. If he was not in a hurry, he could even build an aircraft carrier!
Unfortunately, those ordinary items were not of much use to Tang Zhen, causing him to rarely use this application.
When a good deed was done, one would send Buddha to the West. Since they were acquainted, Tang Zhen did not mind helping them once more.
“You guys go and collect some iron ore, the more the better.”
After hearing Tang Zhen’s instructions, the eyes of Uncle Jim and the others lit up. The abandoned people who had seen him use iron ore to cast a saber immediately realized that Tang Zhen might want to do the same thing.
After all, given Tang Zhen’s performance, he had no need for these things. Therefore, the greatest possibility was that he would give them to them.
After realizing this, the abandoned people were extremely excited. After seeing the sharpness of Morris’s battle blade, they had long been envious in their hearts. However, they were too embarrassed to ask Tang Zhen to forge a battle blade for them.
This was because they were very clear that the reason why Tang Zhen did this was entirely because Morris had saved him from the garbage mountain. However, their actions in the beginning were just to stand by and watch.
The group moved together, and it didn’t take long for them to collect a large amount of iron ores. After placing them in front of Tang Zhen, the group immediately formed a circle, their faces filled with anticipation as they waited for his performance.
“Step back a little, or I won’t be responsible if I hurt you!”
After hearing Tang Zhen’s warning, everyone was so frightened that they immediately took seven to eight steps back. After seeing those terrifying flames, everyone was really afraid that even a tiny bit of it would splash onto their bodies and burn them into a pile of charcoal.
Seeing that everyone was frightened by his words, the corner of Tang Zhen’s mouth raised into a smile. He immediately opened the mobile phone’s operation interface and glanced at the many downloaded applications. He then opened one of them.
all-purpose shaping device. Comes with 100000 blueprints. It can be used to create ordinary items made of various materials. If the materials are not complete, you will have to pay the corresponding material cost!
This application was downloaded by Tang Zhen when he was bored. However, other than playing it a few times in the beginning and trying to create a few items, he had never used it for the rest of the time.
He had observed the entire process of making items with this application and found that when it was working, it would form a special three-dimensional skeleton, and then various powders of various textures would be quickly filled until the item was completely formed.
Compared to man-made products, the performance and quality of mobile phones would be doubled.
The reason why Tang Zhen asked Morris and the others to collect iron ore was that the cost of this kind of application material was too expensive. Even if it was ordinary steel, it would need ten brain beads per kilogram!
Compared to the true value of the brains, this price was indeed a little outrageous!
Tang Zhen didn’t lack brains, but he wouldn’t spend this money for nothing. Moreover, since this was to create weapons for the abandoned people, they would naturally have to put in some effort.
The ore was crushed into powder and then refined into pieces of iron ingots. Then, Zhen Tang chose a weapon drawing from the application and began to make it.
A square-shaped light screen suddenly appeared. Immediately after, everyone saw a translucent three-dimensional skeleton floating in the air. The iron ingots that Tang Zhen had refined were also shrouded in it. They began to rapidly reduce at a speed that was visible to the naked eye. The powder continued to be absorbed by the transparent three-dimensional skeleton.
Under the gazes of the abandoned people, the gaps in the three-dimensional skeleton were completely filled with metal powder. Then, a strange weapon that was shining with a fine luster appeared before everyone.
With a gentle wave of his hand, the weapon that had just been completed landed in Tang Zhen’s hand.
This weapon’s appearance was somewhat similar to a gun, but it relied on mechanical force to fire. Strictly speaking, it was more like a crossbow.
There was a magazine-like storage box at the bottom of the weapon. As long as a crossbow bolt that was polished to the standard was placed in it, it could be fired normally. Its adaptability was absolutely first-class.
Of course, crossbow bolts made of different materials had different destructive power.
As long as Morris and the others carefully maintained it, this weapon would be enough for them to use for a long time. The missing crossbow bolts could also be made and replenished by collecting various materials. This way, its practicality would be greatly enhanced.
With these weapons in hand, Morris and the others would have the power to protect themselves when they faced the enemy. It was more than enough to deal with the operation this time.
As for those terrifying guardians of the machine, Tang Zhen would naturally be in charge of dealing with them!
