Chapter 1123

With a real eye, No. 0 sneaked around and slowly absorbed it.

According to it, the components inside are very delicate and require a lot of time to disassemble and fuse.

Sumo was not in a hurry, put away the other two and returned to the office.

hiss.

The higher you go up the dungeon, the more obvious the feeling of lingering air-conditioning becomes.

As early winter has fully taken hold, the current outside temperature has dropped to about minus five degrees during the day, and it will plummet all the way to about minus fifteen degrees at night.

Since the heating pipes had not been laid yet, the howling cold wind came out of the ventilation ducts and immediately took away a small amount of temperature, causing the temperature on the second floor to be maintained at almost zero degrees.

I wonder if the production capacity of garment factories has kept up?

Sumo thought so, so he simply put on his cotton clothes and walked out of the dungeon to inspect.

Step out the door.

As far as the field of vision can be seen, the ground is already yellow and pale, without the green vitality of the past.

At present, plants that can adapt to the winter in the wasteland have not yet been developed, and the plantations are basically closed.

The only ones still functioning are a few greenhouses that were built not long ago near the underground city.

Greenhouse No. 1 named "New Discovery Farm".

Several special plants brought back from the Red Core Sanctuary, as well as plants traded from the tree people, were all cultivated here, absorbing nutrients and growing vigorously.

It is worth mentioning that the rice leaf mother plant has now been transplanted.

In the past, the territory was completely unable to satisfy this guy due to the fertility of the land, so he could only plant it on fruit trees on the mountain.

But with the successful development of various fertilizers, the land in the greenhouse has become the most suitable place for plant growth.

As soon as he entered the greenhouse, Sumo saw the mother plant swaying slightly in the center, seeming to welcome his arrival.

"Well done!"

Seeing the flourishing growth in front of him, Sumo nodded approvingly with a fatherly smile on his face.

Vermispora is the first plant cultivated in the greenhouse, and it has a very good reputation.

Before the village had to worry about pricing, the chef apprentices had already spontaneously raised the price too high.

The profits are enough to support the expenses of three to five greenhouses.

"It's a pity that all the underground drainage pipes in Qinggang City are broken. The previous wave of rain caused water to accumulate underground. We can't open the greenhouse of the Red Core Refuge."

The person in charge of the greenhouse, 'Misty Tractor', had a look of regret on his face.

The huge water pressure forced all underground entrances to the Red Core Shelter to be closed.

Even if the veteran has mapped out the route, there is no way to send people through the previous entrance to find more new plants.

As for going down from the top level of the Red Core Shelter.

The scavengers had the courage to go there twice, but they didn't know what happened. The number of radioactive beasts gathered around the shelter was simply too many.

Before they even reached the door of the passage going down, they were persuaded to retreat by a large number of radiation beasts.

Moreover, these slightly intelligent beasts seem to regard the 'Red Core' as their base camp and will not let any humans get close to it.

Before there is a large-scale combat force group and suitable weapons, the pace of exploration can only be temporarily delayed.

"Don't be so impatient. When the disaster is over, the gopher guys in the southern suburbs will help us clean up the radioactive beasts."

Sumo looked at the young man covered in mud with a smile.

No wonder he chose this ID, he looks like a human-shaped excavator, and his passion for farming and plants is terrifying.

“Take care of these plants and when the time comes, they will surprise you.”

"Don't worry, Lord, they are my life!"

Misty Tractor hammered his chest cleanly and continued talking with excitement.

"After this winter, I can guarantee that there will never be any farmer player in the territory with a higher level than us."

Farming is a business with basically no barriers.

Although choosing a farmer can gain some experience in the process, it is equivalent to giving up the benefits of combat.

Until there is no super-large territory that can provide shelter, there will basically be no individual players in small or medium-sized territories to choose from.

And such a route is not considered mainstream in the first place, and there is no territory willing to spend time and energy to cultivate it.

That is to say, in the Tianyuan territory, the farmer route can not be abandoned and funds and manpower can always be invested.

"It seems that farmers can be considered for the next route advancement."

Sumo looked away from the misty tractor, thoughtfully, and then inspected the remaining greenhouses.

Like him, almost every farmer route player is extremely enthusiastic, their eyes are filled with the most primitive love and happiness, and their eyes light up when they mention planting and plant growth.

From their bodies, it is difficult to see the deep imprints left by the cement forests and high-rise buildings of the past.

But who can imagine that this is only one year.

The happiness that cannot be had in modern times has actually come true in this barren and dangerous wasteland.

Is this what is called liberating nature?

A big piece of pie was drawn for all farmers route players, promising to focus a certain proportion of resources on the latter.

Amidst cheers, Sumo left the greenhouse and walked towards Hope Village.

As the cultural and economic center of the current territory.

In the open wilderness on all sides, the size of the village has more than quintupled compared to last winter.

The fence with a total length of 6.8 kilometers exudes a faint silver glow.

Although it cannot provide much effective defense against the enemy, the sense of security it brings allows everyone to sleep very soundly at night.

Taking into account the flooding caused by the melting snow last winter, the village now not only has horizontal and vertical concrete pouring drainage channels, but also has many drainage pipes buried underground to guide the water to the nearby river.

In addition, the biggest change in Hope Village is that the number of private shops has begun to increase.

Enter the village.

Skipping the public facilities where people come and go, privately owned shops have put up brand new wooden signs.

'Caveman Chinese Restaurant'

'Second Battalion Commander's Pasta'

'Wasteland Happy House (Massage Shop)'

'Ping Tou Ge Barber Shop'

'Penguin Farm-specializes in fresh dishes'

'Swing Bar'

'.'

The appearance of some absurd signboards may be a bit abrupt in a modern metropolis, but in the wasteland it can actually relax people's tense spirits.

It seems that in order to form a wasteland culture that is different from the earth, the structure of the facilities in the store is also very different.

Just like this 'Caveman Chinese Restaurant'.

The decoration inside is indeed not much different from that of a primitive cave. All visible to the naked eye are rough stone tables and benches.

The billowing smoke from cooking is constantly sweeping out from inside. It is not an exaggeration to say that the 'Fire Cloud Cave' entertains all the demons.

He walked into the restaurant with his mouth and nose covered. Taking advantage of the fact that there were not many people in the morning, Sumo casually ordered three plates of Sichuan food.

Fried pork with chili pepper, mapo tofu, fish-flavored eggplant.

The price is 4 copper coins, equivalent to two days' wages of an ordinary worker, which is not cheap.

I don't know if he saw him as the lord coming, but the chef who was cooking almost used all his skills.

It tastes really good.

After eating four full bowls of nearly two kilograms of rice in a row, Somo stopped with satisfaction.

Speaking of which, with the overall improvement of player routes recently, the speed of material consumption has greatly exceeded expectations.

At the beginning, those female residents could consume 300g of uncooked rice a day, which was enough.

But now, this number has doubled to about 600g.

The average consumption of male residents is even more astonishing, reaching about 1,500g per capita.

Considering that players’ levels will continue to improve in the future, consumption will also change qualitatively due to quantitative changes.

Calculate according to this speed.

If the number of people in the territory increases to 50,000, the food resources in the warehouse may only be enough for about half a year.

Of course, half a year is enough.

Now the plantation has been opened up and the initial difficult period has been overcome.

When winter passes and spring plowing arrives, a wave of harvests will fill the warehouses.

"Lord, can you give me an evaluation?"

Seeing that Somo had finally finished eating, the chef who was cooking came over eagerly and pointed at the residents who were looking at him curiously outside.

As soon as he turned his head, Sumo suddenly became happy.

I don’t know when, but the windows and door of the Chinese restaurant were already full of people.

Judging from their expressions, these guys must want to taste the same delicacies as the previous time.

"Well, good, keep going, I like your place!"

After patting the chef on the shoulder, Sumo coughed lightly and left the restaurant through the crowd.

And less than a few seconds after he left, the crowd who were still watching rushed in.

"Boss, the lord has the same style. Hurry up. I'll serve you first!"

"I can't afford it, why don't you give me one!"

"Do you want a plaque? After a meal, I will help you write down what the lord just said, and you can hang it at the door of the store for safekeeping!"

"Damn it, when will the lord come to my shop and give me an evaluation?"

"Come on, maybe you forgot that you are opening a women's clothing store?"

"."

Amid the commotion, Sumo shook his head slightly.

Material affluence not only brings prosperity to various industries, but also spiritual affluence.

The more relaxed these small players in the territory are, the healthier the development of the territory will be.

After walking around for a while, Sumo suddenly felt that his worries were completely unnecessary.

The Hope Village, which just took shape a year ago, is an ordinary carriage that requires his full control.

Not only do you need to control the direction of the carriage, but you also need to take care of the horse's feelings and food.

If there is any problem with the direction or the horse, you may lose your footing and fall into the endless abyss.

But now, Hope Village has unknowingly evolved to the level of a 'steam train'.

On the railway track leading to the future, this steam train is moving forward firmly.

As a train conductor, Sumo needs to pay more attention to the fuel problem of the train, as well as the 'thieves' and 'robbers' who may come up at any time.

As for whether the passengers on the train could take care of themselves, that was something he no longer needed to worry about.

"Time flies so fast."

Returning to the dungeon with emotion, and sitting behind the square table in the office, Somo's distracted eyes focused again.

The history of the past wars has been conveyed more than once.

Only internal stability is the necessary condition for the smooth implementation of war.

If Qinggang City is surrounded by enemies, even if it is known that there are countless good things hidden in the Kyushu Great Rift Valley Research Base, the territory will not be willing to go there.

And now, since winter has arrived, everything is on track.

Then you only need to wait until the veterans' weapons are produced from the assembly line of the factory before they can embark on the road to war.

"Dare to use humans as test subjects?"

Sumo felt that these Blue Star people might be a little brave, and were confused by the situation that Blue Star had maintained for hundreds of years.

They think that with strong force, they can have the authority at the top of the food chain and have no scruples.

But everyone knows that the wasteland is actually a miniature version of the 'Dark Forest'.

Before the outcropping Blue Star people started their dimensionality reduction strike, the proud technology was turned into a pile of scrap metal in an ordinary disaster when the game started.

In this case, when they expose themselves, someone higher up the food chain will definitely pay attention.

Even if Tianyuan Territory didn't take action, prehistoric giant beasts would emerge from the darkness and engulf them in the forest.

at the same time.

Just as Sumo was studying the selection of personnel and equipment for the expedition, the sea station located in the sea area of ​​​​the giant tree roots welcomed a group of special guests.

"We caught up, we finally made it here before winter completely sets in!"

"Is this the New World? It doesn't look like anything new."

"There are so many boats and people here. I haven't seen such a lively scene in a long time."

"Be careful. The World Channel said it. The station is in chaos now. Don't be betrayed and help count the money."

"Afraid of a hammer, there are really people who dare to take action against our tundra tribe. I'm afraid they don't know what fear means."

"That is, let them know that we came here to rob pirates. I'm afraid their jaws will drop."

"Ahem, keep a low profile. The lord told us to keep quiet. We must pretend to be pigs and eat tigers!"

"."

A fleet of thirty-five large and small ships sailed slowly from the depths of the sea, attracting the attention of many casual people.

As one of the few excellent landing sites on the northern coast of the New World, the conditions in the Giant Tree Root Sea area can be ranked in the top fifty even if you look at the entire New World from all directions.

The offshore here has enough depth and breadth to accommodate large and small ships to berth at will.

The natural giant tree roots are shaped like a barrier, which can not be affected by the monsoon coming from the ocean, and always maintain a calm and waveless sea level.

The land towards the coast is also a flat plain, so there is no need to worry about enemies ambushing at the entrance.

In addition, there are no powerful alien races around, and there is no trace of Blue Star people.

Individual players who plan to land from the north will most likely put giant tree roots at the top of their selection list.

But this is for individual people.

Very few, or almost no large fleets would choose to land at the roots of the giant tree.

The reason is quite simple.

Enough security also means enough ordinaryness. There are not many opportunities to find near the giant tree root sea area.

After a year of experience, the humans in the deep sea have already lost most of their peace of mind and have begun to realize the nature of the wasteland.

If you don’t fight hard in the early stages, you will have to pay the price in the middle and later stages.

If you don't fight, you will have to fall into the abyss of disasters one after another.

Landing from the root of the giant tree can indeed guarantee safety, but if you fall behind the opportunity, you will be eliminated if you are not sure.

Therefore, this fleet composed of thirty-five large and small ships can basically be regarded as the largest fleet in the Giant Tree Root Sea Area!
