Chapter 164

Letter:

"My dear friend Bucky, I have to tell you a good news. With the generous help of our allies, we have successfully repaired the damaged parts and will be on the road again soon!"

"I remember the last time I wrote to you was half a month ago. The reason why I haven't heard from you for so long is not because I forgot you, but because I was sent to perform a very important task as a liaison officer in our allies... This job is very key. You can understand it as a diplomat. There will be a lot of entertainment, but it's not annoying."

"I remember you told me that you wanted to go over that towering wall, go to the outside world, see the mountains and lakes in the distance, see the endless deserts and swamps, climb over snow mountains and jungles, and look for lost relics. I remember you told me that you were tired of boring life. You envy me very much. You can find a group of like-minded partners and put down the secular world , deep into the wilderness of chaos and barbaric occupation. "

"I mean, in that case... Why not try? The road is at our feet. By the time I write this letter, we have walked thousands of kilometers and will go further soon."

"If you can't find the direction, I solemnly recommend to you the partners we met in Qingquan city. They are a group of hard-working, brave and optimistic people who live in refuge 404. They have an impressive culture and are so happy every day with them."

"That's a good place. When you get there, you'll understand why I say that."

On the Pathfinder.

Lying in a comfortable single room with the back of her head resting on her arms, Luo Hua dictated the contents of the letter facing the holographic window suspended in front of her.

Speaking of it, he has been away from home for more than a year.

In retrospect, I still miss the crowded and noisy environment I disliked before.

"I'll write a letter to Dad later."

Luo Hua sighed slightly and was about to send. Suddenly she remembered that she had forgotten to write the signature, so she slipped her index finger hanging next to the holographic window and conveniently filled up the line of words.

"-- your best friend, Luo Hua."

……

Two days later.

An ordinary morning.

Without a grand ceremony, it was as if it had arrived. The steel fortress crawling on the wilderness unfolded a steel structure like a gantry crane on both sides.

The mechanical swivel arm lowered from the ceiling is like a hand, which picks up the modular production units previously deployed in the open space one by one and puts them back on the back.

This incredible scene happened to him, but it was as natural as breathing.

Stand in front of the porthole of the office.

Looking at the production module slowly rising out of the window, Li De's face floated an expression of complacency.

"I'm finally on my way again."

He waited too long for this moment.

"Yes, we have been here for less than half a month."

Standing behind section chief Li, Wang Jie expressed his approval, but his mood was full of complexity.

On the one hand, he wants to stay here a few more days.

On the other hand, however, his pocket was almost cleaner than his face.

In fact, he is not the only one with similar troubles. Since a waterwheel driver came back with a bag of steamed stuffed buns, their pockets seemed to be enchanted.

Fortunately, you can't swipe your card here. A large part of their salary is directly paid to the card. Otherwise, I'm afraid they have to take in even their savings

If Wang Jie is just a worry, then section chief Li standing in front of him at the moment is a complete headache.

In just half a month, those blue coats earned a full 210000 Cr from them!

Li De deeply reviewed his mistakes in decision-making.

When he signed the labor contract, he never thought that these blue coats would come to his door to do business. What's more, these poor blue coats actually made a lot of money from them.

Therefore, when pricing the trading products, Li De only referred to the most basic salary expenditure. It is estimated that he will spend 2000cr every day. Before departure, he will spend up to 50000 or 60000 for them.

There's no way.

Who could have thought that those people were engaged in value-added services and trading, which made their budget exceed an order of magnitude.

Those goods on the list should not be sold to them at cost!

Of course, after thinking about it, Li De thought it might not be a bad thing.

Although he earned 210000 Cr, the trade deficit is still 0 after rational analysis. Chu Guang finally took the money he earned and spent it.

The bill went round and finally flowed back to the pioneer. At present, the financial situation of the logistics department, the well-off group, and the refrigerator of the canteen is full of steamed stuffed buns, dumplings, wonton... And a lot of delicious food that can boost morale.

From this point of view

Can't it be a total loss?

After drinking a mouthful of fragrant coffee, Li De looked out of the porthole and said slowly.

"Well, what did they buy from us?"

Wang Jie replied, "some metal hydrogen batteries and exoskeletons... He has replaced the rest with food and crop seeds."

Exoskeleton is easy to understand. It is the perfect substitute without power armor.

It's just a metal hydrogen battery

Li Deqi asked strangely, "what do they want metal hydrogen batteries for?"

Wang Jie was also confused: "I don't know... Maybe I'm going to be an exoskeleton or a UAV?"

Li De: "

They still have that technology?

What a surprise!

……

Outposts certainly don't have that technology, but they will always have it in the future.

While the pioneer was packing, Chu Guang, accompanied by old Luca, counted the "wool" in the warehouse of the operation camp.

A total of 213420cr, including 117000cr pension, is 96420cr.

What is the concept of 96000 CR?

Equivalent to the average day, his small players have created nearly 9000cr income for him! At least half of this is earned through trade other than labor dispatch.

Such an amazing surplus, not to mention wool, the sheepskin is about to be picked up by his little players!

In addition to the 10000cr consumed for replacing boss Xia's legs, there are 203420cr left.

This hard won huge sum of money, but his small players have paid countless sweat - even blood. Naturally, Chuguang can't spend it at will.

After careful consideration, Chu Guang first took out 100000 CRS and purchased 50 common types of metal hydrogen batteries - an average of 2000cr.

As for why we buy batteries, the reason is very simple. This thing is the most cost-effective, and it is difficult to buy in Qingquan city.

According to Chu Guang's research on the KV-1 exoskeleton produced by Jushi City, the only thing that can be called black technology is a solid-state hydrogen battery.

As for the mechanical structure and engineering design, although there are some commendable points, they are not excellent enough to make people marvel.

The energy density of metal hydrogen batteries produced by enterprises is a step higher than that of ordinary solid-state hydrogen batteries.

This thing is a real black technology. It is very reliable whether it is used for UAV or exoskeleton. Even buying a pile of KV-1 directly and changing it into a battery can greatly improve its endurance.

The price of 2000cr is absolutely cheap!

Chu Guang estimated that in this generation of Qingquan City, this good thing that can be used as a strategic reserve should be sold for 4000cr or equivalent goods.

It cost 100000 CR to buy the battery, leaving 103420cr.

After some weighing, Chu Guang took out half of them and replaced them with food and seeds of some pre war crops. The remaining half was taken to buy 10 sets of "miner type I exoskeletons" worth 5000cr.

As for this set of exoskeleton, just listen to the name to know what it is used for.

But it doesn't matter.

KV-1 is still used to move bricks. Welded with steel bars and plates, it can also be used as pseudo power armor.

In particular, the design of this miner's type I exoskeleton is much better than the garbage bought by boulder.

Besides, the metal hydrogen battery it carries is more than half stronger than KV-1. Its excellent electric control system and motor design not only ensure long endurance, but also provide it with stronger and more stable power output. If magic changes, it can theoretically weld thicker and heavier armor!

In the enterprise, "miner type I exoskeleton" is a type E trading variety, and it is also the most advanced one that Chuguang can buy under the item of mechanical exoskeleton.

Of course, this exoskeleton is not without disadvantages.

The explosion power of metal hydrogen is 35 times that of conventional explosives, and the explosion speed is much faster than that of RDX. Theoretically, it only needs 1L to turn over a main battle tank. Therefore, in the later types II and III, the enterprise changed the metal hydrogen back to a slightly safer solid-state hydrogen battery, and the export control was also lowered to class F trading products.

However, it is interesting that even if types II and III are safer, the best-selling one on waste soil is still the early generation.

Even if Witt and Chuguang strongly suggested buying a safer type II, Chuguang did not hesitate to stick to their ideas.

"With these things, I feel that my old armor doesn't need to be sold..."

Looking at the exoskeletons in the warehouse, Chu Guang couldn't help thinking. However, he only thought for less than three seconds and made a decision.

"Forget it, I'd better sell it."

"Just give the players benefits."

After all, it was the armor used by the manager. Chu Guang decided to auction it to determine its ownership. Only the most industrious players can have this armor engraved with honor!

Well, when we get back, we have to make two more scratches on its front armor.

As for the "miner type I exoskeleton", Chu Guang plans to stipulate that it can be purchased only after reaching the citizen level, and each account is limited to one. After purchase, it will be bound automatically and cannot be traded to players or neutral NPCs. If you don't want it, you can only deal with it to the designated warehouse or weapons store.

Considering that the import price is as high as 5000cr, the price of 5000 silver coins should be more reasonable.

But if this price is really set, his small players may have to save money to buy it next year.

"You'd better sell 2000 silver coins... And you have to add a threshold. You don't just need citizens, but you need to reach level 10 to buy!"

Throw the equipment in the warehouse to eat ash. That's what the old leech does.

As long as the equipment can be smoothly equipped with highly active combat professional players, whether they are carrying equipment to move bricks, pick up waste, hunt or do other things, it is a choice for Chu Guang to maximize benefits.

Basically, unless it happens to be the Department of intelligence, it is difficult to quickly upgrade your life career in the early stage.

The most typical representative is the mosquito. Because the gene sequence is agile and often lives in his workshop, he seldom goes out to do tasks, and the level is only poor LV5. The tomato scrambled egg that entered the game with him had lv6 before the expansion was opened, and now it is fast LV7. It is already a mature physical tank.

Old Luca was told to arrange trucks to transport some goods back to the outpost base. Chu Guang walked out of the warehouse and took a look at the Pathfinder busy packing outside the camp. His eyes were full of sadness.

If only they stayed a few more days.

Popcorn has just become popular on the pioneer. It's a pity that it didn't sell much

……

Deploy for ten minutes and close for one hour.

Before 8 a.m., the pioneer finally finished packing.

However, the iron beast did not take everything away. For example, the action camp about 100 meters away from it was kept intact.

Moreover, during the period after encountering the Legion, the pioneer also helped the local shelter residents to reinforce the operation camp again.

The current operation camp not only has a three meter high reinforced concrete fence, but also a five meter high trapezoidal turret is located at the four corners of the camp.

In addition, 300 tons of unused cement were left in the camp by the crew of the pioneer.

Together with the materials bought by Chu Guang with Cr, they are placed in different warehouses.

"... these are our thoughts. I hope they can help you."

Captain Lu Yang, wearing power armor, went to Chu Guang and a group of shelter residents and lifted the mask of his helmet.

Chu Guang looked at him and said solemnly.

"Thank you. You have helped us too much. I will remember this favor."

To be honest, Chu Guang seldom revealed his heart to others, whether in his previous life or in this life.

But this sentence is absolutely true.

I always felt such a serious expression, which was rare on the friend's face, but Captain Lu Yang didn't care much and smiled brightly.

"Don't be so polite. You've also helped us a lot. Without your help, we couldn't get back on the road so soon."

After a pause, the bright smile suddenly became melancholy.

"Good bye, my friend. If all goes well, we'll see you again!"

At that time, he will triumph with victory.

Chu Guang nodded.

"It will. I wish you success and worry free all the way."

"May I borrow your kind words!"

As a final farewell, Lu Yang waved and stood on the elevator leading to the iron fortress.

This is the last class.

The elevator rose slowly and the hatch closed heavily.

The earth trembled gently and made a dull noise. Driven by fusion energy, the magnificent land fortress moved.

The steel track moved forward slowly and firmly, ran over the snow and frozen branches on the ground, and finally integrated into the winter morning fog with the figure of the great bank, leaving only a dozen tracks like gullies.

This eye shaking scene surprised the players standing at the gate of the operation camp, as if their eyes were stuck to the invisible fortress.

"Gone?"

"Cow, this fortress can really move! I began to doubt the authenticity of the game physics engine!"

"After rational analysis, nuclear fusion is indeed possible... Of course, I'm afraid the material is not ordinary steel, otherwise it can't bear its huge self weight."

"All right, all right, don't analyze it. I want to know now. Is this expansion over?"

"Probably? Since yesterday, the task of scavenging in northern cities and towns has disappeared. Didn't you pay attention to VM?"

"Wait a minute, are there more than 100 non chieftains who have not been resurrected?"

"Gan, this operator is too dog. If you can't fix the bug, close the expansion!"

"Ha ha, ha ha, one word, absolutely!"

Listening to the chatter of small players, Chu Guang smiled faintly.

He took back his sight from the fortress that had disappeared in the distance. Chu Guang stretched out his index finger and scratched on the VM.

The pre edited server announcement was immediately sent to each player's VM and official website.

[full service announcement: the prosperity of the action camp has reached 100 points and has grown into a survivor stronghold. It is now renamed "Changchang farm".]

[full service announcement: the expansion of "land fortress" has been successfully completed. Players locked in login status and unable to revive can now log in to the game normally.]

[full service announcement: 100 new players have been added to alpha0.8. Let's welcome them!]
