312: Hope City (2)
"The city of Hope has started construction at the beginning of the end of the world. It was originally built with the specifications of a central city, which was the last retreat for China. Not only did a considerable number of people relocated to heavy industries and large laboratories, but it was also the only satellite launch center!
But in the end, for some reason, the above did not choose this city as Xinjing, but built another one again." Cui Weichuan looked at the huge city in the distance and sighed: "But this place is still very important. It is one of the most important industrial areas in the reconstruction area, a military center, and is home to more than three million people."
Luo Yuan looked into the distance and saw that it was not so much a modern city as a terrifying war machine.
On the inside of the wall composed of carnivorous vines, which are as high as seven or eight meters high, are densely surrounded by turrets. Several of them look very strange, with slender barrels, but extremely large and bloated bases, which are obviously several times larger than the surrounding turrets. Every few kilometers, this kind of turret is arranged, surrounded by stars in the surrounding turrets, which is particularly eye-catching.
"What weapon is this?" Luo Yuan asked, pointing to the strange fort.
"This is an electromagnetic cannon. This is a weapon developed in the past two years. It has an airflow speed of eight times the speed of sound and a range of up to 500 kilometers. One shell can kill a level 7 mutant beast. However, it consumes a lot of power and is not commonly used." Cui Weichuan said, with a proud tone. In order to boost morale, every time the reconstruction area develops a new technology, it immediately promotes it on a large scale, so he knows it.
The seventh-level mutant beast, only the deep green level, was slightly turbulent in his heart when he looked at the electromagnetic cannons. So far, he had never encountered a super creature of this level.
"What is this? It's the one that looks like an airship." Luo Yuan pointed to the things floating in the air again.
It looks extremely huge, and the shadows it leaves almost covers several streets. However, compared to its huge size full of oppression, its surface is mottled and colorful, as if it has been applied to countless patches, and it looks extremely rough and does not look like a product of industrialization at all.
Cui Weichuan glanced at it and smiled and said, "Mr. Luo, you guessed it right, this is an airship."
Looking at Luo Yuan's slightly astonished expression, he explained: "No? It seems a bit fragile. In fact, it is made up of mutant animal skins above level five, with extremely powerful defenses. Ordinary mutant birds can do nothing about it. Moreover, its huge size is also a deterrent to these mutant birds. For example, this type of A transport airship can carry a capacity of 3,000 tons, which is twenty times that of ordinary transport aircraft."
Listening to the description he said, Luo Yuan was shocked. Such a huge behemoth, I don’t know how many furs the mutant beasts above level 5 are needed, and I’m afraid there are more than 5,000 heads.
With its terrifying transportation volume, it is almost equivalent to one-third of the cargo train, and it is not restricted by regional and road conditions, and can even be deployed on a large scale. I don’t know how many such airships are in total, but it is estimated that there are only single digits. Mutant beasts above level five are not everywhere, and it is particularly difficult to create one.
Before he could get close, someone came over quickly: "Is Mr. Luo Yuanluo in front of him?"
"I am!" Luo Yuan said in a deep voice. He was not surprised. A chip had been implanted on his war beast, and his personal information had been recorded. No matter where the war beast moved, it could be found clearly.
"Mr. Luo, sorry, according to the War Beast Management Articles, your War Beast cannot enter the city. Please come with me to a special location."
"Okay, but I'll ask you to wait a while!" Luo Yuan said.
Under Luo Yuan's order, the giant lizard slowly lay down and the others crawled down one after another.
"There is Hope City ahead, I'll send it here. Take care of me!" Luo Yuan said.
"I will never thank you for your kindness. I will always remember this kindness in my heart." Cui Weichuan hugged the little girl and said excitedly: "I hope I can see you again!"
"There will be a chance." Luo Yuan said with a smile.
"Thank you Uncle Luo and all the older sisters for saving us. Uncle Luo, will you come to see us in the future?" Hearing that the little girl in her arms was about to part, the little girl in her arms said crying.
"If you do, there will be a chance." Luo Yuan said, but everyone knew that this possibility was slim. For most ordinary people, the end of the world was not a free world, with personality suppressed and thoughts imprisoned. The individual was just an insignificant screw in the giant machine of society, and it was impossible to even decide where to be.
"Ning Ning is so well-behaved, so sweet-mouthed, so cute." Huang Jiahui touched the little girl's face and said, her expression was a little complicated. Looking at this little daughter, she couldn't help but think of her daughter.
Luo Yuanxin felt something and shook her hand comfortably.
Huang Jiahui forced a smile, turned her head away, her eyes were already wet. This was the eternal pain in her heart. Several times, she had dreamed back at midnight and woke up by a nightmare.
At this time, the others also stepped forward to thank him, with sincere feelings and excited expressions. If Luo Yuan hadn't turned to rescue him, they would have been underground and turned into a corpse. No matter how much they thanked him, they would not express the intent in their hearts.
Luo Yuan smiled and shook hands and responded.
The whole farewell lasted for more than ten minutes. These people were so enthusiastic that they held it over and over again. They seemed to be unable to finish their words of gratitude, which made Luo Yuan unable to bear it.
In addition to the survivors who survived the earthquake, Yan Mengjun and his wife and Yang Zhiqing also left, only Zhang Wu stayed, and seemed to have made up his mind to follow Luo Yuan.
The civil servants in the distance were waiting patiently, without any impatientness on their faces, and had always maintained a formulaic smile. He knew the person's status and even paid attention to him. Before he could reach Hope City and was still on the way, someone had called him specifically.
The phone number comes from a special department. Let’s not talk about him anymore. Even the mayor of Hope City must be treated solemnly.
But even without this call, he would not dare to neglect. The two terrifying beasts full of depression made him afraid to be dissatisfied at all.
…………
The resettlement area is located in an original ecological valley a hundred kilometers away. It has dense plants and old trees and vines. It obviously requires great courage and confidence to leave such a large forest near Hope City.
"So far, a total of 27 war beasts have been placed here, each war beast is more than ten kilometers apart. Because we are using food delivery at a fixed location and timely manner, war beasts do not have to worry about food, and through the description of food-induced conditioning reflexes, they will basically not leave the original area, so there has not been an accident so you can be completely relieved." The civil servant accompanied Luo Yuan and introduced with a diligent look on his face.
Luo Yuan nodded. The conditions here are really good, much better than those in Motu City. The giant lizard and King Kong should like it.
When they left, the giant lizard and King Kong seemed to have expected something, and they were extremely nostalgic and reluctant to let go. Luo Yuan drove away several times, and several times both giant beasts followed them secretly. If it weren't for the positioning that showed they were moving here, they would probably not have been able to detect it.
Several women had wet eyes. If they weren't rational, they would have persuaded Luo Yuan to leave two giant beasts.
Zhang Wu was also deeply moved, and he couldn't help but feel the urge to conquer a beast of war.
When I came, I was riding a giant beast, and when I came back, I was riding a van from the other party. Fortunately, it was a van, otherwise I would not have been riding so many people.
The power of the car is electric power. With the shortage of oil, fuel vehicles have obviously been gradually replaced. Nowadays, except for some heavy machinery that requires high power, they are still using diesel. It is rare to see vehicles that are not electric power-driven.
At nine o'clock in the evening, the group finally entered Hope City!
The streets are empty, with almost no pedestrians and shops. It is better to be an extremely huge industrial area than a city. The factories on both sides of the road are brightly lit, and the sound of large forging machinery comes from afar, shining together, deafening.
The cars were running all the way, but except for factories, they were still factories on both sides. Heavy trucks drove past from time to time, causing the road to slight shock. The chimneys, like forests, lined up along the road, extending to endless distances, and spewing huge amounts of thick smoke day and night.
But no matter what, this is a city of iron and fire, reflecting the crystallization of human industrialization and giving people a different kind of shock.
