Building a road to the seaside
"Does the base have a ship?" In the short term, if we want to have enough food, we can only rely on the gifts of nature. City A is close to the sea. If we can go to the seaside, we may be able to get a lot of food from the sea.
"There is a boat, but it is docked at the seaside. The road leading to the dock is not easy to drive on, and the overpass is broken and cars can't pass through." Wen Tingjun thought about it. The base did have a boat, but a few years after the end of the world, the overpass was severely damaged, the road was broken, and the boat was left at the dock.
Others may not be able to build roads, but Jiang Lin feels that he can give it a try.
"Are there any technicians who can repair ships? Bring a few who can fish and go to the beach with me tomorrow." Jiang Lin asked.
Wen Tingjun's eyes lit up: "Yes, we have them all." He has never given up on the sea, a rich resource of food. Various fishermen and technicians are at the base.
Jiang Lin felt a little tired. She was woken up by the alarm early this morning and fought with the mutant army for so long, so she was a little exhausted.
"Then I'll go back and rest first." She rubbed her temples. This place was not far from where she lived, and it wouldn't take too long to walk back.
Now the traffic and buildings in the entire base are in a state of chaos, and it is unknown when they will return to normal.
Nothing in the small courtyard had changed. The mutants hardly attacked the residential area, but only the research buildings and weapons depots.
"110, I want to see the materials the store has for road repairs."
Good host.
110 quickly called out all the road construction materials in the system mall, ranging from the most primitive asphalt roads to special roads that can speed up the speed of vehicles.
Jiang Lin's eyes were fixed on the road material that could speed up the vehicle. "Can this really increase the speed of the vehicle?"
"Of course. System-made, quality guaranteed. I calculated that using this material would only take 20 minutes for the existing trucks at the base to make the round trip."
Jiang Lin was a little tempted. She now had a lot of batteries, but road construction was a huge consumption.
"Host, your current battery capacity, combined with the base's daily supply, can cover the cost of the expressway." 110's words resolved Jiang Lin's dilemma.
"Then let's use this material. I want to have a good sleep. Wake me up in an hour." After Jiang Lin said that, he lay down on the bed and quickly fell asleep.
In the dark cave, Li Qi knelt on one leg beside the sacred tree.
"Lord Shenmu, why did you spend such a huge price to save me?" Li Qi's voice trembled a little. Today, she was impulsive and underestimated Jiang Lin, and she almost lost her life.
"Because you are my future. Li Qi needs you to build the kingdom of the mutant army. You will be my spokesperson. I need you." Shenmu's voice was still gentle, without any blame.
Li Qi: "But..."
"No buts. You need to grow up as quickly as possible. This failure is just a small matter. If you really feel bad about it, I will give you another task."
"What mission?"
Shenmu glanced at Li Qi below, whose figure and temperament were very similar to Jiang Lin: "I want you to pretend to be Jiang Lin and sneak into the First Base to steal their purifier."
Chen Guanghai said that all the purifiers came from Jiang Lin. She was so eager to have soil to take root in that her roots floating in the water seemed like duckweed without any sense of reality.
Li Qi hesitated: "My face doesn't look like hers."
"There's no need to worry about that." A thin branch of the sacred tree stretched towards Li Qi, and the leaves caressed her face.
She felt something covering her face, and when she opened her eyes again, she saw her own reflection in the clear underground pool.
She looks exactly like Jiang Lin, except that her original bones are wider, so her face doesn't look as narrow as Jiang Lin's, but it's still close enough to be mistaken for Jiang Lin.
"How much power do you have?" Li Qi couldn't help but ask.
"Me? I think I have the ability to become the master of this world." Shenmu smiled gently. One day it will spread all over the world.
After Li Qi left, Chen Guanghai came.
Shenmu's attitude was obviously less enthusiastic: "I need you to properly store and distribute the weapons we obtained this time. It would be best if you could repair the base. This place is still too dilapidated."
Chen Guanghai was somewhat indignant. After all, he was an experimental director before, but now he was doing the work that the warehouse manager of the first base used to do.
Shenmu noticed his mood and said, "You were one of the first people to follow me. I don't have many people to use now, so I'm really grateful for your hard work."
"It's so unfortunate, so miserable."
"Then make arrangements quickly."
An hour later, the ambulance called 110 to wake up Jiang Lin, who was still sleeping. "Host, your one-hour time is up. You should wake up."
[While you were sleeping, Tang Xiaoyan sent you a message.]
Jiang Lin opened his eyes and turned on the virtual screen on the bed. On it was the latest message sent by Tang Xiaoyan. Today, the Planting Research Institute was also destroyed by the mutant army. Tang Xiaoyan's experimental equipment and previous achievements were all in the ruins.
However, she saved a few copies in her own brain, as she needed some fungi grown in the Shenmu base for experiments.
Jiang Lin felt a bit overwhelmed when he saw her request. These fungi were not good things, but the current experiment really couldn't do without them.
When she was worrying about how to obtain this fungus, Wen Yan sent her a picture.
The picture shows the green juice left behind by the mutant after his death. Now this juice has seeped into the soil and slowly grown yellow mycelium.
Jiang Lin quickly sent a message to Wen Yan, asking him to collect some and not burn them in a hurry.
Then he stood up, put on his clothes, put on a mask and walked towards the location of the photo.
Wen Yan squatted there and used tweezers to collect mycelium into the glass bottle: "Is this enough?" There were already three or four glass bottles placed next to Wen Yan.
"That should be enough. I'll give it to Tang Xiaoyan." Jiang Lin picked up the glass bottle on the ground and put it into the bag he was carrying.
He glanced at the green ground again and said, "It seems that wherever they die, this yellow fungus will grow."
Wen Yan nodded: "That should be the case. We need to deal with them quickly."
Jiang Lin took the glass jar to find Tang Xiaoyan. She had moved back to the hospital laboratory temporarily, but the hospital was half destroyed and looked a bit pitiful.
"Is this enough for the experiment?" Jiang Lin took out five glass jars from his backpack.
"Thank you, that's enough." Tang Xiaoyan looked a lot thinner and haggard. Before the mutant army arrived, she had been locking herself in the laboratory to do experiments.
Jiang Lin looked at Ah Xin who had been accompanying her all the time, and she turned the words around in her mouth for a long time but still didn't say them out loud.
"Resistantly," Jiang Lin said, and left the hospital. The hospital was filled with wounded soldiers who had fought mutants, and it looked overcrowded.
The task of repairing the first base was imminent. Jiang Lin went home and opened the base sandbox that had been unlocked by the system before. It was her first time using this function.
The full picture of the first base slowly loaded onto the sand table and appeared before her.
The original locations of the research institute and the experimental department were in ruins. Jiang Lin used the one-click recycling function to recycle all the collapsed materials on the ground.
The experimental department was merged with the previous research institute, and a separate three-story building was built for the planting research institute. The original open space next to it was all turned into a planting area.
Jiang Lin designed a four-layer planting area. The first layer is the mushroom planting device designed by Shen Zhiyi before. There is a pillar wrapped with plastic film about every one meter. There is soil between the plastic film and the pillar. Each small grid on it can grow a bunch of mushrooms.
I plan to plant potatoes, sweet potatoes and corn on the second floor. I used fill lights and the surrounding walls are all glass windows, which allow sunlight to penetrate easily.
The third floor will be used to grow various green vegetables, and Jiang Lin plans to plant various fruits on the fourth floor, where there is the most sunlight.
The planting area on the fourth floor is huge, and Jiang Lin dug canals on the rest of the land to make it a rice planting area.
The research institute next to the planting area is much smaller in comparison. Jiang Lin expanded the original laboratory a lot. After all, the planting research institute has expanded from one floor to three floors.
The experimental department merged with other departments of the previous institute, and Jiang Lin expanded it to the twelfth floor.
She transformed the old warehouse that was originally filled with soil into a place to store batteries. From now on, people from the construction department can just send the batteries they dig up here.
She was a little exhausted after taking care of these two places.
[Congratulations to the host for completing the task of transforming the Planting Research Institute. The transformation progress is 100%] The system suddenly issued a prompt sound, and Jiang Lin was almost done with this task.
[Received a mysterious gift package*1, host, do you want to open it now?] It is thought that the contents of each mysterious gift package are related to the subsequent changes.
Jiang Lin was silent. She wanted to open it when new difficulties arose: "Let's not open it for now."
[Okay, the mysterious gift package has been moved to the inventory. The host can open it at any time.]
The renovation of the experimental building and the planting research institute has caused quite a bit of activity, but most people are now asked by the base to stay at home to prevent being infected by the yellow mycelium.
However, it still attracted considerable attention, and the people at the Planting Research Institute had been notified by Jiang Lin that they could return to their posts.
Cui Yawen also received Jiang Lin's notification.
However, Cui Yawen and the researchers from the Institute of Planting Research are now busy in the planting area next to the institute. This planting area covers a large area and can be used to attack many food sources in addition to research.
Cui Yawen and the experimenter planted the corresponding plants according to the instructions on each layer of signs. When Jiang Lin arrived, the mushrooms on the first layer had almost been planted.
Xu Anan was standing nearby maintaining order. When she saw Jiang Lin coming, she immediately ran over.
"How did you do it? It's amazing." Xu Anan looked at Jiang Lin with eyes full of admiration.
Jiang Lin covered her eyes with his hands: "Okay, stop looking at me like that, I'm scared, go to work."
After making sure everything was normal, she went to the new battery warehouse to absorb all the newly delivered batteries. The road repair operation would begin tomorrow.
Not knowing what the situation was like at the sea, Jiang Lin closed his eyes, sincerely hoping that everything would be fine.
The original construction department members were also busy, using all the remaining materials in the base to repair other places. The entire first base became noisy all day long.
