Chapter 961 An unexpected visitor, an invitation from Qinggang!

"There is an abandoned large-scale shield machine in that Triumph Hospital?"

At night, after hearing the message from the scavenging team returning from Qinggang City, Sumo couldn't help but feel a little bit surprise.

Shield boring machines will be used in mountain tunnels or underground railways.

But this thing is really rare. I heard that one costs hundreds of millions.

"Not only are there shield machines, but there are also many damaged medical equipment on the first floor of the emergency room of Kaixuan Hospital that we inspected today. I don't know if they can be repaired."

Feng Long said, and took out He picked up the camera and showed the captured pictures.

The entire first floor of Kaixuan Hospital occupies a large area, about more than 2,000 square meters.

All kinds of scattered utensils were thrown on the ground. Some of them have merged with the floor over time, while others are piled in the corner like waste.

The conspicuous neutral moss grows in disorder on the walls, and many traces of wanderers can be seen in the room and on the ground.

"Because the stairs to the second floor were completely blocked, Darren said that he would bring something big tomorrow to completely blow up the ruins blocking the road, so we only explored the first floor and hurriedly retreated."

"Where is the mission target? How is the collection?"

Looking through the detailed pictures on the camera, Sumo asked casually without raising his head.

He had heard about the Red Spider Caravan's increase in collection this morning, which was not too surprising.

Maybe they have also confirmed that the surrounding environment is indeed no longer Blue Star, but has gone to another world.

So when the value of commercial securities depreciates significantly, the value of calm fans has virtually increased a lot.

"If we follow yesterday's 20g target per person, we have completed it, and the average is 23.5! But if we follow their new 50g target today, it is still short of half the amount, and we have not received any additional Incentive award."

"It's okay, safety comes first. We don't rely on this to make money, it's just to collect more information."

Hearing the pity in Feng Long's tone, Su Mo said. Can't help but say comfort.

Scavengers going to the Fifth Ring Road in Qinggang City must take a drug called "Xiaoradiling" in advance.

Of course, this is not the nuclear radiation left over from the nuclear war in the pre-war era.

After all, more than two hundred years have passed, and Qinggang City would have been a scorched earth if there was any more radiation.

The biggest effect of taking this drug is to offset some radiation hidden in the corners of the city.

For example, exposed fuel rods can continue to emit radiation for nearly three hundred years.

Once involuntary exposure for a long time, irreversible damage will occur to the human body.

Besides, who would sacrifice their life for five business coupons per person a day?

You can make money back with just one takeaway meal.

As long as we can stabilize the Red Spider Caravan for a longer period of time, the more good goods we can get out of their hands.

"Hey, this is it?"

After flipping through the pictures on the first floor of the emergency building, Su Mo suddenly let out a cry of surprise when he saw the next picture.

Compared with the previous pictures, the building in this picture is obviously much more advanced.

The outer black-gray brick wall is very complete, and the clean and bright windows still reflect a glimmer of light.

The drainage pipes on the wall are staggered and extend to the ground along the grooves prepared at the beginning.

At the bottom of the building is a giant door about five meters long and three meters high, with a marble-like silver-gray color.

Only in the picture, the door is closed.

If you look carefully, you can still see a lot of gun holes remaining on the surface.

“This is the nursing building of Triumph Hospital. I heard from Darren that the defenses inside are still in operation to this day.”

“There were once five hundred power armors inside. If we can break into the security robot, we will probably find a lot of strategic materials."

"The sanatorium?"

Sumo raised his eyebrows: "Five hundred robots are enough. Lun told you?”

"Yes, he also said that there is a small arsenal below this sanatorium, which can produce materials for maintaining robots, as well as ammunition and other strategic materials."

"Oh?"

When Su Mo heard the word arsenal, he immediately became interested.

However, before he could ask again, Li Hu, who was responsible for guarding the security of the territory, ran down the stairs on the first floor of the dungeon.

Seeing people in the distance, he shouted: "Director, it's bad, someone is coming from Qinggang Shelter!"

"They want to see you by name, and even know general information about you. I suspect there is a spy in our territory!"

Rolling thunder accompanied by raindrops falling from the sky broke the tranquility of the night.

Sitting in the newly built reception room at the entrance of Hope Village, Jasper Sid quietly looked out the window.

No, you shouldn’t say it outside the window.

This simple room didn't even have a piece of glass, only a large empty gap with two pieces of wood hanging.

Scattered raindrops blew in from the window and hit the concrete floor, quickly getting wet.

"The people here are really retro."

Pine, the assistant beside Sid, stood up and closed the pieces of wood inward to block the growing fire. Rain force.

Hoola!

A bolt of lightning flashed across the sky, piercing the fog and swimming towards the horizon like a long dragon.

Pine shrank his head and quickly walked back to the wooden bench in the reception room and sat down.

Qinggang City is located in the tropics on Blue Star. Although it rains often, there are only a handful of thunders.

In addition, most people often live underground and have long lost awareness of what is happening on the ground.

Even if it is just a muffled thunder, it makes people feel upset and a little anxious.

Creak.

The wooden door opened and a tall, well-dressed woman walked in.

"Welcome to the Tianyuan Shelter, you two, who have come from afar. It's raining and slightly cold at night. Do you need some ginger soup to dispel the cold and avoid catching a cold?"

Listening to the other party's unfamiliarity, Pre-war Blue Star language like a robot.

Pine was already prepared. He coughed and said slowly: "Is there hot coffee? We prefer to drink more of it."

"Yes, please wait a moment."


The woman showed a smile, turned around and retreated.

Not long after, when the door opened again, two cups of fragrant hot coffee had been brewed in porcelain cups, exuding a mellow aroma.

“They are actually beans ground from fresh coffee beans!”

“Hey, why does it smell so fragrant?”

Far away, Sid was wandering away. Suddenly he came back to his senses and fixed his gaze on the porcelain cup on the tray.

Wisps of hot steam emerge from it, bringing a refreshing and unique cocoa flavor.

Slightly sour, moderately roasted, with a sweet aftertaste and a violet aroma.

As a gourmet who has tasted many flavors of coffee, Sid had already tasted a bit of the taste before the tray came near.

“This is high-quality coffee that we have specially prepared for our two distinguished guests. Please use it slowly.”

“Where is your manager?”

"Our manager is already on his way over, please wait."

"Okay." Sid waved his hand subconsciously, focusing all his distracted attention on the coffee cup.

The Sirius coffee machine purchased at a large expense in Qinggang Shelter can produce nearly three hundred different flavors of coffee.

If it was just ordinary coffee, it would not attract him to this extent.

But the cup in front of me was completely different.

There are actually two completely conflicting flavors in its fragrance, one is violet and the other is white sugar flower.

One is mellow and slightly bitter, the other is sweet and silky.

How is this possible?

How could anyone combine two completely conflicting coffee flavors?

Sid picked up the cup unbelievingly, not caring that there was still some scalding liquid inside, and took a small sip.

Huh.

The heat wafts out of the mouth, bringing with it a lingering aftertaste.

Okay.

In addition to the two flavors, after drinking it, he tasted a third flavor.

It was the artisan coffee he tasted at a passing caravan a few years ago. It was all handmade and the raw materials used were top-notch coffee beans from the Holy City. A cup of it sold for as much as 125 coupons.

After drinking this cup, Sid thought about it for several years.

But now, he actually tasted a hint of that charm in this cup of coffee.

Although not much, only about one fifth.

The shock it brings to people is far more than a cup of coffee.

"Well, it tastes really delicious."

Sid was savoring every bit of the taste.

Pine next to him was not so elegant. He drank the whole cup of coffee in one gulp like a cow chewing peonies, and lay down comfortably on the chair to let out a breath of hot air.

He didn’t know what the taste of coffee represented, but as long as it tasted good, it was worth the trip for the two of them to come all the way.

In addition, the quality of the coffee can also roughly tell the standard of living here.

It's not as retro as I thought.

It seems that sending out the next invitation letter should be easier than imagined.

Waiting quietly, just as Sid took the last sip of coffee and looked at the bottom of the cup in a daze.

The wooden door outside suddenly opened, and an extraordinary man stepped in.

The two looked up and immediately showed friendly smiles.

"This should be the manager of Tianyuan Shelter, Lord Somo, right?"

"Yes, I am the manager here."

Walk in from the outside and put on the umbrella Putting it gently beside the door, Sumo also showed a kind smile.

The number one enemy in the surrounding area, Qinggang Sanctuary, suddenly sent an envoy to arrive. This was something he had never expected before.

Ideally, it would be best for the two sides to have at least three to five months of buffer time in contact.

But it's a pity that on such an ordinary night, the other party took the initiative to come.

"We are from Qinggang City, and we are the largest shelter in the city. You should know our Qinggang Shelter, right?"

"Yes."

In two Sitting down on the chair opposite to the person, Somo nodded slightly.

“That’s right, don’t be nervous. Our Qinggang Sanctuary has received a lot of news, confirming that this world is no longer the Blue Star we are familiar with, but has arrived hundreds of years ago. In the different-dimensional space that has been opened before, and we also know that the Tianyuan Sanctuary is not a native force on Blue Star, but the aboriginal people of this different-dimensional space.”

"But please rest assured that we will treat Qinggang City and the surrounding human gathering places equally. We will not treat them differently or even launch attacks because of whether they are our own. I would like to discuss specific matters next. Let me tell you clearly first."

"Oh? Can I know how you found my shelter?"

Pie. En showed an expected expression and answered confidently: "Maybe you don't have a clear understanding of the various strengths of Qinggang Shelter. In fact, as long as you are near the shelter, whether it is in the sky or underground, we have Enough capability to ensure that no unexpected situations will occur."

"After the mutation occurred, we launched a Sentinel microwave detector. Although most of the microwave transmission was blocked by the fog, it was still successfully detected. A strong signal response to your location ”

"About three days ago, we clearly detected the specific situation here through high-altitude drones."

"It is really surprising that Tianyuan Shelter actually retains large-scale above-ground planting, which is very Spectacular.”

It is both explaining the situation and flexing muscles.

Pine didn't mean to hide anything behind his words, showing that he didn't care at all.

In fact, you really don’t need to care.

Clear Harbor Sanctuary, which has a large industrial base, can completely suppress even other gophers in the city.

It would be easier to face the more ancient Tianyuan Sanctuary.

In the footage captured by the high-altitude drone, there was no sign of any heavy firepower weapons at all.

Even the other side does not even have the means to detect drones, which is enough to show the huge gap in strength between the two parties.

“We do not have the technology to produce starch and protein, and we still need to cultivate to survive.”

"Is that so?" Pine nodded and was about to speak.

Sid, who was silent next to him, suddenly spoke up:

"Mr. Somo, is the coffee you provided us tonight tasted like a machine?"

His expression was still calm, but there was a hint of expectation in the corners of his eyes.

“Not that you have also seen that our agricultural and industrial capabilities are very backward, how can we afford luxury goods like coffee machines.”

"Is that handmade?"

"Yes, if you still want to drink it, I can"

"I would like to exchange for 10,000 kilograms of starch and 5,000 kilograms of protein. The person who made this cup of coffee."

Sid shook his head and interrupted, all the anticipation in the corners of his eyes concentrated.

“Of course, this is not a sale, if you are willing to sell this high-quality coffee beans, I will also give you a reasonable price.”

"Buy someone?"

Good guy.

Sumo was slightly stunned.

The 10,000 kilograms of starch and 5,000 kilograms of protein made into food are enough to feed two thousand people for a month.

As expected of a kid from a rich family, he can’t be offended, he can’t be offended.

Just because of a cup of coffee, the other party actually offered such a sky-high price. It was simply an unimaginable luxury.

“Sorry, I have no right to sell any of the residents of the shelter, this is their own personal freedom.”

“But if you are willing, the gate of our Tianyuan shelter will be permanent Open, you can come and buy it at any time.”

“What if he wants to?”

Sid is still a little determined and persistent.

Of course, this is not because he wants to buy people back to become his personal barista because of his temporary appetite.

But behind this cup of coffee, he saw a huge business opportunity.

No surprise, as long as we return to Qinggang Sanctuary and maintain the same production level, we will definitely become a self-propelled humanoid money-making machine!
