Chapter 969 shows off, the energy fusion tower!
To be fair, an Oriental face is not popular in Qinggang City, which is located in the Western Hemisphere.
Perhaps during the great cultural integration in the pre-war era, the native races living here did not mind the presence of outsiders.
But in the long and long post-war era.
Prejudice began to accumulate, arrogance began to revive, and the Blue Star humans once again returned to a state of hostility to each other.
However, this is only compared to ordinary people.
No matter how unpleasant the face is, as long as there is a premise.
Foundation Identity.
The smile on Lewis's face became more humble. His straight back was bent at 45 degrees, and he did not show any arrogance when facing Bernie.
"Distinguished Captain Pengqiu, your arrival is so timely. Recently, the drastic changes around Qinggang City. No, the drastic changes in the entire world have made people in the shelter panic, but your visit today It really surprises us, and we sincerely hope that the gospel of the foundation can be spread to this strange land again.”
"Our Qinggang Shelter is also an officially signed F-class partner of the Foundation. You can rest assured that no one in our territory has the right to make you take off your power armor."
"I hope so. "
Peng Qiu didn't want to say more, nodded and closed his helmet.
To be honest, he would rather go to the battlefield than deal with such a slippery gopher guy.
Although Lewis’s attitude is extremely good now, behind his back, he has scolded him in his heart countless times.
"We did not receive an invitation today, so it would be a bit abrupt to attend your meeting."
"But the person next to me is Mr. Sumo, the manager from Tianyuan Shelter."
"His gathering place has been evaluated by our branch as a potential F-level partner. A signing ceremony will be held after the foundation resumes normal operations."
Put your hand on the Daily Armor Looking over his shoulder, he kept saying:
"Mr. Sumo invited me to come to this grand meeting. Mr. Lewis, is there no problem?"
Peng Qiu's decisive voice caused an unexpected surprise to appear on Lewis's face.
Is this a guarantee?
When will the Foundation guarantee a small, unknown gathering place?
Aren’t they always known for their neutrality? Even if some gathering places are willing to spend huge sums of money, the Foundation only needs to I am unwilling and will never agree because of materials.
Furthermore, isn’t this Tianyuan Sanctuary an aborigine of this world? How could it be so easy to board the giant ship of the Foundation?
Lewis glanced back and forth a few times in confusion, but in the end he couldn't say anything.
His level is high, and he has basically reached the ceiling where normal shelter residents can go. He is in charge of the investment promotion and cooperation negotiations of the entire industrial zone.
But in some respects, to say the least, he didn't even have the right to participate in the closed-door meeting in the shelter.
Although I have recently heard rumors coming from the shelter, Blue Star’s original structure may change, and the established forces are very likely to reshuffle the structure.
But for Sunny Harbor Sanctuary, the Foundation is still the unshakable mountain.
"Please come in. Our meeting location is on the harbor island. There will be someone specially assigned to bring a few distinguished guests in."
Lewis coughed lightly and quickly stepped aside, revealing the doorway under the low wall.
Peng Qiu walked in front, and the four of them quickly walked in from the passage below and continued towards the hinterland of Qinggang Shelter.
May be limited by the layout of the original industrial area.
After passing the doorway to the other side, the buildings built on the ground have not changed much.
Except for being a little older, it looks very period.
There are still countless stacked factories here with lights on, and the roar of overtime work coming from the windows.
"Distinguished guests, the area we are going to next is the location of today's meeting, the harbor island."
"Please get in the car, we will meet in thirty-five minutes Arrived at the port. ”
Four transfer cars came from a distance.
The drivers who were driving were very understanding and obediently removed the roof of the shed.
But when Peng Qiu and the others sat down, visible to the naked eye, the height of the car instantly dropped by more than ten centimeters, and the chassis completely touched the ground.
"Uh"
"The armor is a bit heavy, is that okay?"
Glancing at the unmistakably light Sun-Chasing Armor on the left, Peng Qiu's eyes I couldn't help but have a flash of envy.
In fact, it is very easy to make the power armor bigger. As long as the materials are piled up enough and the battery is enlarged, it is not a problem to make a monster more than ten meters tall.
But if you want to make it small and light, it is much more difficult.
At least in his past life, he had only seen powerful caravan bosses from the Foundation or masters in war zones wearing similar personal power armor.
"No problem."
The drivers looked at each other and hurriedly tried to start the car and start moving slowly.
But it was a pity that it caught fire, and the bulldozer-like chassis only made a creaking sound, and could not move forward even half a minute.
“Forget it, just lead the way and we can follow behind.”
We couldn’t drive out after several attempts.
Su Mo had no choice but to speak out in time to resolve the situation. Several people thanked the driver and followed the car on foot.
Crack.
Snap.
Heavy steps echoed through the neighborhood.
Continuing forward, after advancing for about eight kilometers, the industrial zone finally reached the end and entered the residential area.
However, after entering here, I lost the sense of technology that I imagined.
Maybe this place turned out to be a residential area in an industrial area. The old building walls peeled off, leaving clear traces of water stains.
People living inside hang colorful clothes outside the window and float with the breeze.
At first glance, the area behind the industrial zone looks like a slum, completely devoid of its former sophistication.
"It seems that they have not fully mastered all the technologies of the civilized era?" Sumo looked at the crowd peeking over from a distance, and felt that compared to other places, the residents living here were not as happy. Where to go.
Even though they don’t have to live in the dark underground, they have a place to live on the ground.
But the shabby clothes and the slightly slutty face can fully explain the quality of life.
Peng Qiu also looked around curiously. The scanner built into the power armor was fully activated, and the scanned data was collected and processed on the mobile computer hanging on his left arm for processing and analysis.
Although he is nominally the captain of the foundation's branch in Qinggang City.
But in the past, when it was relatively peaceful and stable, he was not in the city more than 95% of the time. Instead, he was active in some areas where conflicts broke out, looking for benefits for the foundation's expansion.
After all, the entire Qinggang City is too safe.
In other words, the people here are simply too stubborn. They never covet so-called benefits, and they will never step out of the safe area of the city. Even the most powerful Qinggang Shelter constantly restricts its residents not to step out of the designated area.
Compared to the surrounding cities where the plunderers were so powerful, it was true that he had not been here for a long time.
But what Peng Qiu is more interested in is not the quality of life of the people here.
Those thick pipelines built between residential buildings were the first targets of his attention.
The energy response level scanned by this thing is abnormally high, and the power output per second is in units of one hundred thousand watts.
"Nuclear fusion brings us nearly unlimited energy, but it also has inevitable shortcomings. Not every place has a complete set of technologies and materials. For example, the raw materials of the Clear Harbor Shelter are very dependent on their arrival on time every year. Foundation Merchant Ship."
Peng Qiu glanced at the data and was a little surprised.
“These aerial pipelines are actually liquid-cooled transmission pipes, which can transmit the energy from below the shelter up almost without loss, supplying the industrial area to operate at full capacity.”
“They are in What to produce?”
“I don’t know, it might be a weapon, or it might be something else. After all, I don’t have more detailed information.”
Peng Qiu's words were ambiguous.
No argument is given for such an inference, nor is it said what the other things might be.
Unable to see his expression, Sumo didn't know whether the other person was unwilling to tell him or just didn't know, so he simply didn't ask.
"No. 0, scan the nearby terrain data, model it into a visual 3D model and store it."
"Okay, Master."
The small cube in the pocket trembled slightly, and a silent high-frequency information wave spread to the surrounding area.
Buildings and underground and aboveground line and pipe networks quickly took shape in Zero's database.
About ten seconds later, looking at the miniature light and shadow projected in front of me, a huge thing suddenly appeared under the ground.
Sumo nodded imperceptibly, and couldn't help but have a better understanding of the strength of Qinggang Sanctuary.
Sure enough, what is exposed on the ground is only the tip of the glacier.
A large number of pre-war inheritances have turned the underground here into a solid military fortress.
According to the detection within Zero's capabilities, the thickness of concrete underground in residential areas has exceeded ten meters.
What is this concept?
Not to mention a directional explosive bomb.
Even if a medium-yield tactical nuclear bomb is blasted straight down, it will not affect the slightest point below.
And behind the concrete, there are even more powerful materials that can block even the No. 0 detection wave.
“No wonder they were able to assemble an entire flying fleet. With such an industrial background, it’s difficult to develop slowly.”
Looking up at the three helicopters whizzing by overhead. .
Somo moved his neck and couldn't help but feel grateful for his decision to pull on the foundation's tiger skin.
Before revealing special means, it is simply nonsense to use hard power to compete with Qinggang Sanctuary.
Let alone the gap in weapons, there is a huge gap between the two sides in terms of productivity alone.
Take the industrial area outside that covers an area of more than tens of thousands of acres as an example. Even if it is opened and exploded, it will take half a day.
As for breaking through the ten-meter-thick concrete layer under your feet and going deep into the opponent's hinterland.
"Before using the power of authority, we must keep a low profile in the short term!"
Sumo thought secretly in his heart and came to a conclusion.
Regardless of what plan Qinggang Shelter will come up with today, or how much supplies it needs to squeeze out.
Shooting the first bird, Tianyuan Shelter decided not to be the first to stand up.
As for other people’s thoughts
Looking at the small island faintly appearing in the field of vision in the distance, Zero immediately gave the general information.
“Master, this is not an ordinary island, but a heavy fortress made entirely of alloy!”
It was originally a small harbor island built on the sea.
As the seawater disappeared, the metal was completely exposed on the river bed.
From bottom to top, this alloy island with a height of more than 300 meters has a ferocious silver brilliance shining on every inch of its foundation, revealing its indestructibility.
Countless black and gray small windows are scattered horizontally and vertically along the waistline, leaving no one in doubt about the horrific damage that will be caused when the firepower breaks out.
A water fortress made of pure alloy?
Su Mo secretly cursed the prodigal son in his heart, but Peng Qiu next to him said in surprise:
"Interesting, Qinggang Shelter was able to quietly create an energy fusion tower?"
"Although it is only the first-generation primary tower"
"Interesting. It seems that they have already prepared it."
Energy fusion tower?
Suddenly catching an important piece of information, Sumo's still somewhat distracted spirit immediately gathered together: "Qinggang Shelter? Have they mastered nuclear fusion technology?"
"I don't know the specific situation, but this is indeed a generation of "What a fusion tower looks like."
Peng Qiu shook his head and said: "If you don't understand this thing at all, then I want to fully explain this issue to you. I'm afraid I won't be able to explain it in a whole day. End."
"But you can understand that after we break through nuclear fusion technology, only the top powers will be able to create matching devices to achieve the effect. Even if other powers have obtained the technology, There is no complete technical reserve for this.”
“So in order to promote nuclear fusion, several major forces can only continue to attack it and gradually reduce the requirements for complex devices before manufacturing them. Portable nuclear power generator ”
"This kind of generator can continuously output energy as long as the produced fuel rods are put into it. The only disadvantage is that once the energy rods are used up, they can only continue to look for and buy them."
Sumo Rao Looking at the small island in the distance with interest, he said: "So in order to get rid of control, some forces began to embark on the road of self-research on fusion?"
"That's for sure, the energy fusion tower is on these roads. One of them."
Peng Qiu avoided the topic neatly without dwelling on the specific technical details: "However, the first-generation towers required a large amount of seawater to reduce the operating temperature, so the reason for using alloys was that It’s just to conduct heat quickly and avoid the risk of exploding the furnace. It’s a pity that now that the sea water has disappeared, this tower has become a waste.”
“No wonder they are eager to start an alliance and implement the expedition plan.”
Energy means everything in the wasteland.
Having an industrial core and endless energy means infinite evolutionary potential.
In this case, you only need to keep a low profile to make a fortune and develop in a low-key manner, and you will soon be able to accumulate a terrifying foundation.
However, this wave of game launches caused the seawater in Qinggang City to suddenly disappear, and the energy fusion tower completely failed. This method can be called a drain on the bottom of the pot.
Realizing that the road to continued low-key development has been cut off, Qinggang Shelter decided not to wait any longer and began to actively expand externally.
When you think about it, it makes sense.
“It seems that the Foundation still doesn’t know enough about Clear Harbor Sanctuary, Brenda Hades”
“He wants to invite everyone here to show off. ”
“It’s really interesting.”
