Chapter 894 Return without success, shift of focus!
[Chapter Spear (Excellent Level)]
[Description]: This is a spear with strange energy that can ensure simple spiritual communication between hundreds of people within a range.
【Upper Limit】:100/100
[Maximum distance]: three kilometers (without any obstruction; centered on the spear holder)
[Special Ability]: Breathing Qi (when the spear holder is a hero, humans who complete spiritual communication will receive a certain degree of Qi blessing)
[Evaluation]: Spiritual communication is only one-way, so you don’t have to worry about your thoughts being spied on.
"Eh."
"Good stuff!"
After scanning the attribute panel that popped up, Sumo was a little surprised and a little emotional for the first time.
This kind of item that uses "qi" energy looks like a magical item at first glance.
Not only can it enable spiritual communication between humans within three kilometers, but if the holder is a hero, it can also increase the team's "Qi".
As a poor human being, it is possible to study to such an extent without having any real contact with divine power.
Pegasus Universe is extraordinary!
Somo made an inner evaluation and glanced at the next two items.
[Hero’s Blood (Gold Level)]
[Description]: A tube of blood mixed with special genes has a probability of generating special organs inside the human body, providing special abilities.
[Success rate]: 69% (taking the host as an example; the higher the physical fitness, the higher the success rate)
[Side Effects]: Mutation (uncontrollable changes, probability of being attacked by the immune system, resulting in immune disorders)
[Evaluation]: With continuous mutation, maybe one day you can become a new independent species!
[Sacrificial Disk (Gold Level)]
[Description]: A special disc that can absorb the energy of its people. Heroes can absorb the energy in it to enhance their own strength.
[Attribute]: Locked (will be unlocked after "Qi" is detected)
[Evaluation]: Guess the way it absorbs?
"Is this the only thing in such a huge ruin?"
Although Soma did not have greedy assumptions, the properties of the remaining two items were too shabby.
For the current Tianyuan Territory, not to mention the adventurer terminal manufacturing facilities, even high-precision machine tools are much more important.
With more than 10,000 people waiting for food and industry not yet beginning to develop, how could it be possible to take this route that seems to require time and battle?
"If you can inherit the hero gene, you will gain supreme power, don't underestimate it."
A bronze face emerged from the wall, still chattering.
Good guy.
It was okay not to listen to what he said. The more he listened to Sumo, the more he felt that all his waiting these days and all the plans he had made were in vain.
"Okay, okay, I will find a suitable person to inherit your heroic gene."
"But now you are still here underground, just wait." Somo rolled up the three things on the altar table and walked out neatly while his face was still in shock.
Since all the ruins information obtained from the future wasteland is useless, this development path that can almost defeat the purpose is completely broken.
As a lord, the Tianyuan Territory is no longer a gathering place where more than a thousand people could gather for small talk.
Nowadays, just for the small 10,000 refugees brought back from the mountains, eating every day is a huge headache.
"Director, should this place be sealed?"
Feeling that Somo was in a bad mood, Pei Shao shrank his head as he caught up to the ground.
"Send someone to go in and check if there is anything else inside. If not, just seal it up for now."
Sumo shook his head.
When it comes to the gains from this trip, this place is really not as important as the information provided by old man Pepys in the Empire of Light.
But there is no way, those ruins location rewards are not given by the game, and now there is no place to complain about them.
"We're leaving, where are Isaac and the others?"
"Capture them back. We need a group of coolies for the spring plowing. By the way, let them help form a caravan for our Tianyuan territory."
Seeing the group of people filing out from the underground, Sumo gave instructions without hesitation.
"Today is the last day for the disaster to stop. No one can say when the next disaster announcement will be issued."
"We have to return to the territory quickly and revise the development plan for the next stage."
The end of the calendar year is July 21st.
Since the disaster lull period, waves of invisible pressure have begun to brew in the wasteland.
No one knows at what sudden moment the next disaster warning will be issued.
After exploring the route they came from, it happened to be late at night when Sumo brought his people back to Tianyuan's territory.
Standing outside the scope of the virtual reality used to confuse outsiders, I watched Chen Shen and others coming in their clothes after hearing the news.
Somo looked far into the distance and felt a trace of sadness in his heart.
Needless to say, virtual reality is indeed bluffing, but it is also very easy for people to fall into false prosperity.
These days, in order to take advantage of the heavy fog to blow up a wave of caravans coming from afar, and get some good things from their hands.
Since it was opened, not only the new citizens who joined the territory were immersed in sweet dreams and did not want to wake up, but even he, the lord, was a little happy in it. He lay down in the underground shelter to rest for half a month under the pretext of being tired from the journey.
But now, the idea of obtaining advanced equipment from the ruins has been completely shattered.
There is only the last road left in front of everyone.
"Director, could it be that the things in the ruins have been captured first?"
Chen Shen stumbled over, his face a little dark.
Not only is firewood, rice, oil and salt expensive, but the continuous setbacks of various technology trees in the past two months have made everyone realize the reality.
I want to revive human technology in the wasteland without even having a guide book.
That's all daydreaming!
Building a house sounds very simple. In the game, you only need to collect various materials and pile them up step by step to be successful.
But when it came to the actual wasteland construction, just processing a simple lime mortar took everyone a month to study how to make a ratio that could adapt to the harsh climate of the wasteland.
In the middle of the process, even a master of theory like Lu Kuan and Ai Jianfeng could not bear to give personal guidance, and the effect he had was minimal.
And until now, the territory has not been able to find a stable source of limestone and obtain a stable source of concrete.
Naturally, under such circumstances, even they are immersed in the dream of excavating ruins these days, wishing that their territory could turn around and develop by leaps and bounds.
But it's a pity that Sumo took people out for a trip but returned without success.
"My judgment was wrong. The ruins will not be restored in a short time. We have to develop the village from scratch and revive the technology."
The expression on Sumo's face remained calm, and he also figured out why the wasteland would develop so rapidly in the future.
Perhaps this is intentional in the game. With the help of a large number of technological relics, the most difficult step for mankind at the moment has almost no obstacles.
It took five years for the future wasteland to go from the almost primitive barbarian era to the modern technological level.
All automated production unfolds naturally. Whatever you want, you can turn around and produce it underground.
But in the real wasteland, there is no help from these things.
Even if you want to build a fully automated building materials production line, it is no less difficult than iterating the machine.
"Director, I'm afraid we have to let go of the process of developing the village."
"Our food stocks are being depleted rapidly, and the food pressure brought by these 10,000 people every day is really too great!"
Shen Ke frowned, and it could be seen that the sudden increase in material pressure tenfold during this period made her feel numb.
"I know, I originally thought that the equipment excavated from the ruins would solve the productivity conflict, but now it seems that we have to act quickly."
"Chen Shen, will we be able to bring in all the management? We need to agree on a phased plan as soon as possible before the next disaster strikes!"
"Of course." Chen Shen nodded quickly, regardless of the time. It was only after five o'clock in the morning and said quickly: "Director, should I say it or not, everyone has really been waiting for now these days. The backlog of problems in the village has become more and more serious recently.
Duo, if you don't tell me what to do in the meeting, I will come to you to discuss it!"
"Village chief, please stop talking nonsense. If we hadn't observed these days, how would we have found these problems that arise when there are too many people. I think these are all within the director's consideration~" Chen Kai interrupted.
Normally, everyone might have exchanged a few jokes.
But at this moment, even the active Wu Feiguang no longer wanted to complain.
Walking into the "Hope Town" shrouded in virtual reality, more and more people were notified to get out of bed and sit down in the largest conference room in the center of the town with data full of problems.
Taking the previous eight major positions as the main framework, and then subdividing the specific responsibilities of these two months into contexts.
As soon as the meeting was called, there were quite a few people attending, reaching nearly a hundred people.
Among them, the village committee has the largest number of people, accounting for 32 people, and manages almost all trivial matters that occur in the village.
The second largest group is the task department. Recently, the number of people in the village has skyrocketed. The original six people can no longer control the situation. It has been fully expanded to eighteen people and can barely handle task release, handover, and summary.
Later, there were also many members in the village union, reaching fifteen people.
Countless unfamiliar faces were crowded together. At first glance, Sumo really thought he had arrived in a strange territory.
"Except for the ministers and deputy ministers of major departments, everyone else should go out first. It's such a chaos!"
"The movements are all sluggish, and none of them have woken up yet?"
I noticed that even the two old men guarding the door of the material warehouse were sitting at the back with their hands behind their backs, pretending to be waiting for instructions.
Chen Shen slapped the table angrily and yelled for a while before the heated scene calmed down a little.
And when the ordinary staff members left, there were only thirty people left in the venue.
This time there were many more familiar faces than before, and Sumo even saw many faces he had seen in the future ruins appear in the middle of the crowd.
"Although we have all met before and have cooperated with each other during this period, according to meeting convention, people who are attending for the first time should remember to introduce themselves before standing up to speak."
Chen Shen coughed twice, and the long conference table fell silent.
Everyone's eyes turned over and fell on Somo who was sitting in the main seat.
"Start with me?"
Soma stood up and looked around.
This place is completely different from Baoyu County.
When the latter came to serve as county magistrate, although there were only a few businesses left in the city, unfinished buildings were everywhere, and people's livelihood was stretched to the point where it was almost difficult to maintain healthy development, and tens of thousands of people had to be maintained.
.
But it is backed by the entire Tianyuan territory. Hope City has a complete industry to rely on, and Baoyu Heavy Industry, which can undertake many large-scale machinery tasks, can move back.
In comparison, today's Tianyuan Territory is truly impoverished, and even the most basic aspects of people's livelihood have not yet reached their infancy.
It is no exaggeration to say that even one wrong decision at this stage may lead to many people going hungry in the future.
If a major mistake occurs, we will face the risk of forced attrition internally.
This kind of risk is completely unacceptable to Sumo.
So when he searched for the ruins before, he wanted to solve all the problems directly from the root and completely suppress the superficial contradictions.
But it's a pity that the ruins can't be found. Now if you want to solve the problem, you have to rely on these people sitting in the field.
Developing a thousand people is also development, and developing 10,000 people is also development.
The previously formulated distribution system must be changed starting tonight, otherwise it will never be able to support a village of this size to continue.
"Hello everyone, I believe that even if I don't tell you about the problems that the territory is facing now, you can see, perceive, and realize it yourself."
"It is not possible to seek help from the outside for the time being. In the next period of time, I need everyone to brainstorm and participate in the development of the village, and try to develop the village within the next six months!"
"Everyone will be prosperous, and everyone will suffer. Our Tianyuan Territory does not talk about seniority in capital allocation. Everyone can speak freely and discuss the ways to deal with it."
Sumo glanced at the first person on the left, and Chen Shen naturally took over the conversation.
"As the head of the village, I will give you a basic background before telling you some data."
"In the past period of time, we have had the storage we brought before and the daily replenishment from the Lucky Star Project. The material storage has actually been maintained at a high level, which can basically meet our needs for about half a year to a year. We will persist until the next
The one-stage food harvest thus creates a perfect positive cycle.”
"But this tenfold influx of people has brought an unimaginable and devastating blow to our material storage."
"Currently there are 11,259 people in the territory, including 4,577 young male workers and 6,438 female workers. In addition, there are 244 minors under the age of 18."
"Every day, every adult male consumes one pound of coarse grains and two ounces of meat, and each woman and child consumes half a pound of coarse grains and one tael of meat."
"In total, as soon as we open our eyes every day, we have to spend 7,918 kilograms of coarse grains and 1,583 kilograms of meat. In a whole month, we will have to spend a total of 230,000 kilograms of grain and 50,000 kilograms of meat."
"I think many people have no idea about this number yet, and they cannot judge the magnitude of the material pressure we are about to face. But I can tell you directly with a number that our food inventory can only last for 54 days, and our meat inventory can only last for 54 days.
It can only last for 16 days, and once the latter is consumed, the expenditure on the former will increase significantly!"
"Within forty days, don't worry about the damn village construction, and don't worry about what good things those foreign caravans are selling!"
"We must find new rations, whether we grow them ourselves or go out to rob them. We must find the supplies to sustain everyone, even if it is only at the minimum level. Otherwise."
After continuously saying numbers that moved everyone, Chen Shen looked around, swallowed hard and said:
"If we can't find it, we can only launch a suicide attack and use our bodies to attack the alien defense line to fight for the last chance of survival!"
