Soon, the convoy arrived under this half-finished space elevator.
There is a metal platform here, with fortifications surrounding the platform and soldiers guarding it.
Of course, these soldiers are mainly used to drive away the wandering corpses. If there is any strong enemy that wants to attack, there is no need for them to resist, they can just call for air support.
The convoy stopped, Zhuo Yongyuan went over and showed his ID, and soon the convoy was released and entered the space elevator.
From a distance, it seems that this space elevator is not very big, but that is entirely because it is compared with the Donghai Base, which is more than ten kilometers away.
In fact, the diameter of these space elevators is more than 50 meters. If you squeeze them tightly, it will not be a problem to enter 10 armored vehicles at once.
As he entered the space elevator, Lin Xinghai discovered that a thin layer of halo appeared below the platform.
The next moment, he felt that the gravity seemed to be reversed.
Objects around him, including himself, were floating upwards and gradually accelerating. In just ten seconds, they crossed a distance of several thousand meters and arrived at the bottom of the floating island.
Then they passed through the "underground" of the floating island, but did not go directly to the ground. Instead, they entered a room similar to an elevator lobby.
Here, they need to undergo another inspection and remove all thermal weapons before they can enter the real Donghai base.
The rule of not carrying thermal weapons is common in almost all large bases and shelters.
This is mainly to prevent malicious people from sneaking in and causing some huge damage.
Of course, Lin Xinghai didn't need to worry about these things, Zhuo Yongyuan quickly arranged them.
It's just that now, it's time for the two sides to part ways. After all, the military department still has tasks to do.
And then, it was the fat man Jin Canlan who led the way for Lin Xinghai and others.
After all, the other party is also the president of the mercenary guild. He has been to Donghai Base several times before, so it is no problem to lead him.
Led by Jin Cancan, they left the elevator hall and followed one of the passages to the ground.
There is a huge square above, but unlike the Mercenary Square, this place is much more lively. There are many stalls and shops around the square, and the shops inside are also full of dazzling things.
"Wow, it seems like you can go shopping here, should we go and have a look?" Liu Miaomiao took one look at the scene around her, and immediately took Lin Xinghai's arm and said excitedly.
There is no woman who doesn’t love shopping, especially since there are many clothing stores here.
"Ms. Liu, I don't recommend you do this. The things here are very valuable. Generally speaking, they will deceive people who come to Donghai Base for the first time."
"If you really want to go shopping, I suggest you go to the Guomao Building in the central area or the Donghai Shopping Mall. Although the things there are not cheap, at least you can avoid being scammed."
"Of course it's noon now, why don't we find a place to stay first and then go shopping after eating." Jin Canlan suggested in a timely manner.
"Okay, then I'll let you make arrangements, President Jin." Lin Xinghai said.
Next, Jin Cancan used a wrist-mounted computer to connect to the Donghai Base's network and directly rented a maglev car.
Then the four of them went straight to the city center area.
It is worth mentioning that this kind of rented maglev car is fully autonomous and does not allow manual mode for renters like them.
This made Lin Xinghai disappointed for a while. Originally, he wanted to try what it would feel like to drive a car flying in the sky!
But sitting on a maglev car, you can have a panoramic view of the city below.
Looking at the bustling streets below, everyone was filled with emotion. The Donghai Base was so prosperous that there were countless streets away from the Star Shield Shelter.
Soon, the group arrived at the city center, and Lin Xinghai chose the most expensive seven-star hotel to stay in without even thinking about it.
Lin Xinghai was absolutely unwilling to save money on things like food and accommodation. After all, he usually worked hard outside with his head in his hands just to live a better life. How could he wrong himself under such circumstances?
He directly used 10,000 Chinese coins to open a luxurious double suite.
10,000 Chinese coins are equivalent to 100,000 points, which is equivalent to half a mecha.
I have to say that the consumption here is really not comparable to Star Shield Shelter.
This scene made Jin Canlan stunned. After struggling for a long time, he spent 1,000 Chinese coins to book a standard double room and lived with his nephew.
"Let's go directly to the hotel restaurant to eat!" Lin Xinghai said after taking the room card.
The deluxe double suite he booked has many supporting facilities, including the hotel's indoor swimming pool, bar, and gym, all of which are free to visit.
In addition, it is free to eat the buffet here, and you can also enjoy a 50% discount when ordering food.
Soon, everyone arrived at the restaurant. Lin Xinghai first went to the buffet area to take a look. Although there was a lot of meat, it felt really average, at least much worse than he expected.
Of course, the most likely reason is that the buffet is free.
So he directly asked the waiter to bring him the menu, and after flipping through it, he found that the dishes here seemed to be much better than those at the Cloud Restaurant in the Star Shield Shelter.
And perhaps because of its proximity to the sea, most of the menu is seafood-based.
Braised prawns in oil, steamed clams with garlic, green cod and lion head, fried crab rice cakes, baked lobster with garlic and cheese, baked scallops with mayonnaise, squid flowers with onions, fresh milk shrimp and sea cucumber soup, etc.
"Wow! It feels like this place is expensive for a reason!" Looking at the dishes being served, Jin Canlan was almost drooling.
"It's not your money spent, of course you think it's worth it." Lin Xinghai scolded with a smile.
Jin Canlan was immersed in eating. It was hard for him to refute this. Just now he proposed to eat at the free buffet, but when he saw Lin Xinghai ordering food, he pulled his nephew to sit down and planned to eat and drink.
Soon, after having enough wine and food, Lin Xinghai took Liu Miaomiao to a nearby shopping mall for shopping.
As for Jin Cancan and Jin Tong, they didn't come over to make light bulbs. Of course, one of the most important factors was that they didn't like shopping.
As for Lin Xinghai, of course he wasn't just out shopping. He also planned to buy Liu Miaomiao a set of defensive equipment worn by a strong person in the Body Shaping Realm.
In fact, going shopping with a woman is not an interesting experience. Lin Xinghai followed Liu Miaomiao in circles for more than two hours.
Except for Liu Miaomiao, who made him feel bright every time she changed clothes, the rest of the time he felt quite... boring.
After buying clothes, bags, and shoes, the two went to watch a movie.
These are all pre-apocalyptic movies, but surprisingly, there are so many people watching the movies. After all, if you sit in a cinema and watch it with a holographic projection, the immersive feeling is really wonderful.
.
After watching the movie, it was already close to 5 o'clock in the afternoon. The two went to the most famous restaurant in the East China Sea Base and had a big meal.
It wasn't until he was done drinking and eating that Lin Xinghai took Liu Miaomiao to get down to business and go to the equipment store, intending to buy defensive equipment.
However, something beyond Lin Xinghai's expectation happened.
