Chapter 1258 On the eve of the disaster, the red spider caravan arrived with a full load!
After introducing the general functions of the module assembly line, Lu Kuan also started the machine to demonstrate it.
The process still maintains the biggest advantage of modularity, and all links are operated in a black box.
The responsible worker only needs to take the products of each stage to the next stage, and finally take out the finished module produced from it.
"If this affects the earth, I'm afraid the big prizes in the field of science and technology will be taken lightly."
Picking up the first-level storage module generated by the production end, Sumo thought a little hopelessly.
The ever-changing modular technology has not actually made earth-shaking innovations on the road to industrial development. Instead, it has perfectly integrated past industrial output, allowing various industrial technologies and products to work more collaboratively, improving overall efficiency.
and performance, resulting in an effect of one plus one being far greater than two.
Like an excellent conductor, he coordinates various industrial technologies and products like various instruments in a band, playing a symphony of efficiency and performance together.
The difference in module levels actually reflects the difference in the degree of integration. Low-level modules may only be simple integration of a single or a few industrial outputs, while high-level modules involve deep integration of multiple complex industrial systems.
and optimization.
But having said that, no matter how powerful the other modules are, the main limitation is the storage module that carries the space capability.
The existence of storage modules is like a magic pocket tailor-made for huge industrial facilities.
Through this magical module, equipment that originally covered a vast area and was bulky can be cleverly compressed to one-tenth or even one-hundredth of its original size.
This amazing ability not only makes it easy to carry and transport industrial facilities, but also provides unlimited possibilities for its flexible use in various application scenarios.
Imagine the rescue scene after the disaster. After a group of rescuers arrive, they only need to carry a few large modules with storage capacity to quickly deploy the required huge rescue facilities in the blink of an eye. What does it feel like?
Or in daily life, using modular products like modular camps, you can instantly transform a large area of fully functional residence in the wilderness, and you can summon a vehicle with a wave of your hand. What does it feel like?
It can even be used on the battlefield to send a special force to quietly lurk behind the enemy. When the night is dark and the wind is high, the prepared module is suddenly opened and military equipment is released.
Almost no one can guard against such a surprise attack, and this is the unparalleled advantage of module technology.
"Now the daily output has not been completely stabilized. We have to test the areas that can be optimized in the production process. It will take about a month until everything is ready."
Lu Kuan conservatively gave a deadline of one month.
But based on past experience, Sumo believes that it only takes half of this time to fully set up the production line and enter formal production.
"There is no rush. The highlight of the next month will be the disaster. Just wait until the disaster is over and things are stabilized and put into production."
After inspecting the production line, Sumo made command arrangements for the factory's security forces, instructing the garrison force in Longteng Village to distribute most of the personnel around the module factory.
In fact, being in the hinterland of the territory, there is no need to be too cautious at the moment.
Especially if there are no visible enemies in the territory, there is no need to worry about someone invading and robbing you.
Moreover, it is different from the fact that Sunny Harbor Sanctuary was invaded by looters and burned down a large area of factory buildings, and it has not recovered yet.
Even if someone does come in and destroy the production line and steal some equipment.
You only need to ensure the safety of the module mother bed, and the damaged production line can be set up again quickly.
"Plan well, and as long as you don't make mistakes, you will win."
After arranging everything, Sumo slowly walked out of the module factory's yet-to-be-completed door.
Looking up at the sky, I saw that the drizzle of rain had quietly stopped at some point. Although the sky was still gloomy, there were no raindrops falling, as if I was silently looking forward to the coming moment.
Turning his gaze to Longteng Village not far away, the originally deserted village began to come to life.
Workers who came to work in commuting cars came in twos and threes, bringing a long-lost hustle and bustle to this small industrial village. With the influx of people, various kinds of decorations were put up at the entrance of the village.
A breakfast stall with hot steamed buns, fragrant pancakes, and sweet soy milk.
The aroma of various delicacies spread in the air, and people quickly gathered in front of the stall, adding a bit of warmth and beauty to the early morning time.
"Everything is ready, the next step is to wait quietly."
Somo whispered to himself, and an inexplicable sense of peace suddenly surged in his heart.
At eight o'clock in the morning, the punishment disaster was announced as scheduled, which immediately caused a commotion in the New Wasteland.
However, as expected, the large territories had already been notified of the disaster information in advance. They did not panic at this time, but took the opportunity to launch a disaster plan that had been prepared for a long time.
After the survivors of some small and medium-sized territories got through the initial panic, they also breathed a sigh of relief after carefully exploiting the threat of disaster.
According to the information given by the disaster, as long as you stay within the territory and don't go out, no matter what happens to the outside world, at least your life will not be in danger.
What impact will there be after the disaster?
At this juncture, how many people care?
"I hope that the opened Immortal River will follow the direction of the future ruins!"
"."
While waiting for disaster to strike, Sumo focused his energy on rebuilding the western suburbs.
With the foundation laid in the early stages of Hunting Tiger and the restoration provided by World Origin, the condition of the underground pipelines in the western suburbs is much better than expected.
Some small damaged areas should be repaired or replaced.
For some areas that required extensive construction work or that could not be dismantled and repaired temporarily, Somo directly used the territorial locations for repairs.
After a few waves, the effect is extremely significant.
Outwardly, the sewer pipes of Pingtan Shelter are finally unblocked, so there is no need for dozens of people to rush to grab a toilet during the morning rush hour.
As for the ground, it's a slow job.
It is too wasteful to use the territory to repair those old buildings. Moreover, players who choose the construction apprentice route also need such a place to upgrade their level and gain experience.
Somo made up his mind and decided to keep the high-rise buildings but demolish all the original villa areas.
After all, the former cannot be built at all with the current construction level, but the latter can be built as much as you want.
The demolished villa area can be used to build the alliance's public buildings, and the future trading center can also be laid out in advance and moved to the city.
As for the construction materials consumed in this process, there are resources harvested by the first wave of membership system. There is basically no need to worry about gaps before the comprehensive project is fully started.
Ever since, for half a month, the rumbling sound of engineering work can be heard in the western suburbs from morning to night.
When managers from the southern suburbs came in groups to check and found that the western suburbs looked the same almost every day, everyone was confused.
They thought that the reconstruction of the western suburbs would proceed at a slow pace, but they never expected that the alliance's engineering power would be so silent.
Even Sunny Harbor Sanctuary was shocked by the alliance's vigorous progress.
In the past, they cheered for rebuilding cities, but in fact, who doesn’t know how difficult it is to rebuild cities?
This is not much simpler than building a city on the ground again!
Without a large number of experienced engineering personnel, just relying on a group of gopher guys can't even understand the drawings, let alone operate them.
"Will they still seek cooperation with us?"
In the conference room, under dim lights, a group of managers sat around a round table. Their eyes wandered between each other. There was an indescribable tension and confusion in the air. Everyone's face was full of confusion and ignorance.
At a loss, as if suddenly losing the direction of progress.
They originally planned to cooperate with the Alliance to rebuild Qinggang City together and divide the resources and benefits provided by the large and small shelters in the city.
However, the current situation is beyond their expectations. The Tianyuan Alliance does not seem to need any more assistance, and the progress of working alone is much faster than they imagined.
This sudden change made everyone feel at a loss as to what to do, as if they had been in prison for decades and found that the outside world had changed so much that they couldn't keep up with the previous version.
"What the hell, if the foundation's merchant ships are still there, why are we so tied up?"
A middle-aged man with an unshaven beard couldn't help complaining, with helplessness and frustration in his voice.
His eyes fell on the old Qinggang City map in the conference room. The resource lines on it were now clearly marked with a red cross, which represented the complete rupture of the refuge's external resource channels.
Indeed, in the past, the foundation's merchant ships would arrive in Qinggang City on time every six months, bringing a large amount of supplies, especially those strategic materials needed for production. It has never been so embarrassing as now.
But now all this comfort and comfort have become distant memories.
The world has changed, and the port of Qinggang has become a decoration.
Instead of counting on the foundation's merchant ships, it is better to think about how to reach cooperation with the Tianyuan Alliance.
However, just when these managers were sighing and had nothing to do.
They didn't know that hundreds of kilometers away from Qinggang City, a caravan familiar with the Foundation was coming from afar, loaded with goods.
"You guys, go explore the road ahead!" Standing on the top of the second floor of the chariot, the caravan manager Sean glanced around, frowning and looking at the misty wilderness ahead.
The wilderness after the rain always looks mysterious and quiet, giving people a sense of horror that they are entering a place of death.
He touched the back of his head and felt a little weird, "It can't be because of the damn weather. Why does it feel like we've never been here before?"
The last time they left Qinggang City, because they were in a hurry to return to the foundation headquarters, they actually forgot the important step of collecting and drawing maps.
Of course, without satellite positioning, it would be of little use to draw maps of the New World.
Affected by the player's territory, the terrain of the wilderness where no one has set foot will not always remain the same.
Although there will not be a sudden change of a hill or a canyon, the slight ups and downs of the terrain are constantly changing.
Nowadays, it is almost impossible to find the familiar road leading to Qinggang City with only memory and route sense.
Along the way, the Red Spider caravan got lost several times.
Whenever Sean thought he had found the right direction, there would always be an unfamiliar mountain range or valley blocking the way, forcing him to replan his route.
"How about we find a place to rest?" Luke, the guard captain, walked out of the shadows, his voice was slightly hoarse, and there was a hint of exhaustion on his face that was difficult to conceal.
Compared to the past, thanks to Sean's investment at all costs, the scale of the Red Spider Caravan has reached its largest scale in history.
Not only did the number of chariots increase by two, but the empty spaces in each vehicle were also filled to the brim with large and small goods. Among these goods, there were both general and scarce goods, as well as rare items that the manager had specially asked them to purchase before leaving.
thing.
Luke knew that the success of this caravan would have a decisive impact on the future of the Red Spider Caravan.
If they cannot successfully bring these goods to Qinggang City and the Tianyuan Refuge to make huge profits, then this seemingly powerful caravan in front of them will have to face the dilemma of selling off its assets and reducing its size.
Yes, if it weren't for that strange Tianyuan Shelter.
I'm afraid that Sean had the patience to look for it the first time or two when he got lost, but after so many subsequent times, he got impatient and gave up.
However, it is this invisible pressure that has made the atmosphere in the caravan become increasingly dull recently.
The accompanying caravan members complained almost every day and wanted to stop and take a good rest.
"If we keep persisting, we will have a lot of time to rest after we find the place. Have you forgotten the delicious food in that shelter? We can have a good meal there!"
Sean was unmoved, still showing the same strength and unquestionability as before.
However, in the corner of his eyes, there was also fatigue similar to Luke's.
Numb.
The caravan was not entirely safe along the way, and encountered several attacks along the way.
In particular, several joint attacks by foreign races caused the casualties of three people accompanying the caravan.
If we can't find Qinggang City again, we may have to stop and rest as Luke said.
However, I don't know why, but Sean always has an inexplicable sense of urgency in his heart.
Don't know where it comes from either.
This sense of urgency was always urging him to speed up, otherwise something terrible would definitely happen if he stayed any longer.
Buzz.
At this moment, a long siren suddenly sounded from the fog in the distance.
Then in a very short period of time, it became more rapid with the rise of three signal flares.
Another enemy attack?
Sean frowned, and Luke next to him had already started to go to the bottom of the tank.
Dealing with monsters that are different from humans is a bit dangerous at first, but after gaining experience later, they are actually easier to deal with than humans.
Unfortunately, things don't seem to be as simple as the two of them thought.
Before Luke could put on his armor and head to the signal center, he saw three more fires rising in the mist, which meant that the threat level had reached a point where it could pose a threat to the tank.
And being able to pose a threat to the Red Spider Chariot at least means that the opponent has anti-armor capabilities.
