The news that the Red Spider Caravan and the Tianyuan Alliance were about to reach an in-depth cooperation quickly spread throughout the city under Aldrich's careful planning.
Soon, this news 6 was confirmed for the second time by Yehu, a big mouth, which added a bit of authenticity.
If it can be said that during this period of time, the alliance's territory has become larger and larger, the rapid development of the western suburbs is only the driving force.
Then this in-depth cooperation agreement is the last straw that breaks the camel's back.
What? You said you don't want to cooperate with the alliance?
The fifth-level caravans of the Foundation have all spotted the potential of the alliance. Is it possible that your arrogance is greater than that of the Foundation?
As a result, some shelters that were not in a hurry before and some managers who had a gap with tiger hunting can no longer sit still.
Before, they were still waiting to see whether Qinggang Sanctuary would launch the Qinggang Alliance to compete with the Tianyuan Alliance when it was developing rapidly.
As a result, the so-called 'Qinggang Alliance' had not yet appeared, and the foundation's caravan actually intervened first.
And as soon as they intervened, it turned out to be the "in-depth cooperation agreement" that Qinggang City had been asking for before without any results!
The so-called deep cooperation is a right that every caravan that has reached level five can have.
Once the agreement is signed, it means that the caravan intends to belong to a certain force and start sprinting to the higher level six or seven.
The foundation headquarters will give the powerful party three years of protection.
During this period, no matter whether any caravan enters the scope of the signing of the agreement, it cannot peddle goods at will around the signing power.
If this in-depth cooperation agreement can be successfully signed, then the Tianyuan Alliance will not only obtain a long-term and stable supply channel, but will also completely cut off the right of all shelters in Qinggang City to purchase goods directly from the foundation. .
Are you still hesitating?
If you run fast, you might be able to get a sip of cold soup, but if you run slow, you won’t even have to pick up the trash.
After making this judgment, Qinggang Sanctuary, which was firmly entrenched in Diaoyutai, finally couldn't help but choose to take action, and sent a decent team of envoys to contact the alliance and try to discuss cooperation.
Even the deputy manager who now controls Qinggang Shelter has shouted the slogan that he is willing to serve Tianyuan as his respecter.
However, what surprised everyone who was looking forward to the results was that the leader of the Tianyuan Alliance not only lacked interest in cooperation, but even stopped the pace of rebuilding the western suburbs.
Surrounding the edge of the city, their total number exceeds 300,000, and they seem to be preparing for something.
This.
Is it possible that something big is about to happen?
Think of the earthquakes that have erupted every day these days, but ultimately failed to cause any impact.
The managers who said everything was fine secretly ordered the shelter staff to be on guard.
And even Sunny Harbor Sanctuary has become much more honest this time after experiencing the last dwarf siege.
Not only arrangements were made for personnel contraction, but also an evacuation plan was secretly prepared.
For a time, the atmosphere in the entire Qinggang City suddenly became solemn.
May 18th, Year Two of the Wasteland Calendar.
Unconsciously, the seven-day warning time has passed, and it is time for the punishment disaster to strike.
Although the Tianyuan Alliance's shrinking trend has already made the surrounding areas of the city extremely tense.
But as the initiator, after breakfast, Sumo even had time to take a walk on the two newly purchased tanks of the Red Spider Caravan.
There is no way, if there is information gap, you can do whatever you want.
After using the territory expansion coupons brought out in the main game, Tianyuan territory now covers the western suburbs.
Correspondingly, the scope that will not be affected within 100 kilometers of the disaster limit has also been expanded to the entire Qinggang City.
Even the ‘Pumpkin Bunker’, which is far away in the southernmost part of the city and still some way away, is also included in the package.
As long as the gophers stay in the city peacefully, the next big earthquake will be the same as the small earthquakes in the past seven days.
It will be a little scary, but it won't have any other effects.
"Old Xiao, I say you should stop letting these guys modify your chariot randomly. Look at this whole thing. It used to be so handsome, but now it's so ugly that you can't even look at it?" !”
When he arrived at the old place where the Red Spider Caravan was stationed at the outpost, Sumo looked up and couldn’t help but sigh.
I don’t know what kind of evil possessed Sean, but he was persuaded by the modification guys in the territory.
Currently, the Red Spider Caravan has a total of nine tanks.
Except for two vehicles that focus on pure transportation tasks and remain unchanged, the remaining seven tanks are undergoing an unprecedented armed transformation.
However, the one that has been renovated has completely changed from black technology to a killer style. The changes are so big that it is jaw-dropping.
The original top was a smoothly spread observation platform that shimmered with metallic silver light. Paired with a constantly rotating radar, it looked very much like the coveted command vehicle in a certain Red Alert game.
But now, all this is gone.
Not only was the radar dismantled, but seven rocket launchers were also patched onto the integrated platform.
It doesn’t matter if you say that the transmitters are arranged in a neat row. The key is that the arrangement is still crooked.
If someone with obsessive-compulsive disorder sees this, goosebumps will break out all over his body!
In addition to the roof, a large number of modifications were also made on both sides of the tank.
The original neat and uniform storage squares can be used for storage, and various multi-functional living parts can be installed at the foundation's modification points to provide convenience for those traveling long distances.
But now, they have become shooting windows.
Just press the button, and sixteen heavy machine guns can pop up into the shooting bay within ten seconds.
If any enemy dares to attack from both sides and is unprepared, he may also be swept into a sieve.
But just like the modifications on the roof, the modifications on the sides are equally ugly.
Those extended platforms were like the legs of a centipede, densely packed and without any sense of beauty.
The most exaggerated modification is undoubtedly the front part of the car.
The originally integrated front of the car is now equipped with two heavy flamethrowers.
Although the flamethrower can spray tens of meters of flame when turned on at full power, its temperature of up to thousands of degrees is enough to incinerate any carbon-based organisms.
But the key is that anyone can tell what this thing is for at a glance. What idiot would dare to get close to it?
"Haha, we were making a bet yesterday. The bet was whether you would feel ugly when you came."
Sean stood nearby, laughing happily.
Joseph and Luke looked sad, obviously they had lost the bet.
"Hey, I have always been practical, but my aesthetics is still online."
While joking, Sumo walked into the modified tank and saw the inside. There have also been tremendous changes.
Various living compartments have been turned into ammunition compartments, stacked with weapons and ammunition purchased from the Madman Weapons Factory.
Based on the amount of storage, if a fight really broke out, it would be enough to destroy a miniature shelter.
“Times have changed.”
Of course Sean would not admit that he was frightened by the sudden battle a few days ago, so he wanted to modify it.
In fact, when he came all the way, he had already had the idea of strengthening his force.
Not only to prepare for strange alien races, but also to deter survivors with ulterior motives.
“Lord Su, when we were on Blue Star, the survivors in the gathering place and the gopher guys in the shelter were afraid of the strength of the Foundation, so we caravans could abandon their arms unscrupulously.”< br>
“But now”
Sean paused for a moment and said in a serious tone: “To put it bluntly, the first-level foundation headquarters we went to before can’t protect itself, so what ability does it have? To protect our caravans?"
"Before the news comes out, we still have time to prepare. If everyone knows that the strength of the foundation has been greatly weakened, then we will be walking. The fat sheep!" After hearing this, Su Mo raised the corner of his mouth and couldn't help but feel more appreciation in his eyes.
No matter how corrupt Blue Star’s system is and how outrageous the environment is.
As the founder of the Foundation's fifth-level caravan, Sean's head is still much clearer than those managers in the city.
If you plan to rely on the remaining power of the foundation to dominate this new continent.
Then the next disaster will come. After the tectonic plates split, the sky will not work, and the earth will not respond.
"Stay a little longer and have a good rest. Now is not a good time for you to set off."
After visiting the Red Spider Caravan, Sumo left with a few words.
The cooperation with the Red Spider Caravan is enough for now, but the Tianyuan Territory and the Alliance cannot always rely on one caravan.
Otherwise, once something unexpected happens to the Red Spider, the territory and the alliance’s external channels will be cut off.
Sumo still understands that eggs cannot be put in one basket.
Therefore, while the disaster has not yet completely stabilized, the territory is actually preparing for a caravan.
When the time is right, he will leave with the Red Spider and go to other places in the New World to open markets.
By then, we will have two major advantages: energy stone technology and module technology.
Once the market matures, the resources that Tianyuan Territory can earn will be a more terrifying amount than those in the future ruins!
Leaving the Red Spider Caravan, Sumo wandered all the way to the research institute.
As the undoubted treasure in the territory, Hope Village can be transformed into Hope Town in just over half a year.
The top priority research institute naturally has a lot of resources!
The research institute is about thirty kilometers west of Hope Town and covers an area of about three hundred acres.
In addition to two research institutes and a dormitory building.
It also includes a public canteen, a snack entertainment street, and an entertainment city for relaxation.
Here, there are no strict working hours and systems.
Researchers can stay in the institute all day to integrate the progress of the project.
You can also lie down in the dormitory building and sleep soundly, and someone will deliver meals to your bedside on time.
Of course, you can also go to the entertainment city.
It is worth mentioning that the current main staff of the entertainment city are not humans, but the group of small fish people.
Since the construction industry in the territory has become somewhat saturated, most of the new fishmen in the village have been assigned to the service industry.
The diligent little fish people don’t know how to be lazy.
After learning a series of special skills such as massage and foot massage, the experience is almost the same every time.
Sumo has experienced it once before, and I have to say that this thing is really awesome.
So much so that many ordinary citizens are now willing to go to the massage parlors opened by Xiao Yuren to take care of business on their days off.
On the other hand, the treatment of researchers has completely surpassed modern times.
It’s quite ironic to say.
When Mr. Qiao submitted his application for a salary increase, Su Mo thought he would have to spend a large amount of resources.
But in reality?
Not only is the modern research system extremely bloated, but a researcher who has studied hard for more than ten years will not earn as much as a small internet celebrity in a few months, and generally can maintain a normal life.
Those who have made some achievements in research can only reach the level of a worry-free ordinary life.
There is still a long way to go before I can put aside my worldly desires and devote myself to the field of scientific research.
"Morning, Lord!"
A young researcher had just gone to work and planned to go to the cafeteria to have breakfast first, when he bumped into Somo who had wandered in.
Compared with the enthusiasm of ordinary people in the territory, the researchers are actually not willing to give in.
The reason is quite simple.
In other aspects, Somo is so awesome that no one can fault him.
In terms of research, Su Mo also has abilities that are no less than those of Lu Kuan, the director of the institute.
This is no longer a height that ordinary people can reach.
Most people spend their entire lives finding it difficult to find a direction in which they are good at, let alone make achievements in this direction.
However, Somo was able to achieve heights in one direction after another that were beyond the reach of ordinary people. The difficulty was simply exaggerated.
"No need to restrain, I just came to take a look."
Patted the researcher on the shoulder and watched him jump away with excitement on his face.
Sumo shook his head secretly, feeling helpless.
Being worshiped as an idol by all the lords, an ordinary lord would not want to see such a scene happen.
Because once something uncontrollable happens, this idol filter will be destroyed.
Then the entire territory will be turbulent, causing inevitable chaos.
However, Sumo still underestimated his influence.
Just after saying hello and taking a few steps forward, another researcher immediately rushed up to say hello.
There are some weird ones, and I even held the research project materials in my hands and planned to ask for advice.
No, although my buddy is great, he doesn’t understand every major, right?
This scene is really hard to bear.
In the end, Lu Kuan had to come over to relieve the siege, so that he could not be surrounded by the crowd.
“Forget it, let’s do it secretly next time.”
Seeing Somo’s depressed expression, Lu Kuan couldn’t help but become happy.
In fact, when he met such an all-round monster, he was past the age of chasing stars.
If I had been young, I would have been one of them.
The two chatted for a while about the recent situation in the institute, and then Lu Kuan brought the topic back.
"Actually, this is also a good thing. The projects you asked to study have been going smoothly recently, especially the water transportation project. Do you want to take a look?"
"Oh? So fast? ”
Sumo raised his eyebrows, showing a somewhat interested expression.
According to the situation after the big earthquake in the future ruins, he has made corresponding arrangements.
The most important of them is the ‘Changlong Fairy River’ that may be developed through application.
In the ruins, it is this river that opened the curtain on mutual exchanges among human gatherings and promoted economic prosperity.
If there are no accidents in all processes, it should be.
boom!
At this moment, an exaggerated vibration suddenly came from the soles of his feet.
This is
Disaster is coming!
