Chapter 242: Old Wang Qiangu
The eastern suburbs of the city,
When Zhang Yang was returning to the base in a vehicle, he was stopped by the enemy.
She was in a very bad condition, as if she had just experienced a fierce battle. Her face was pale and there was some despair in her eyes.
"Old Wang is dead."
"I thought you were a smart guy. I told you not to cross the line. Why are you leaving the city?"
Unable to be suppressed, the desperate enemy shouted.
Zhang Yang was stunned for a moment, then frowned and asked, "Did Lao Wang die because of me?"
The desperate enemy gasped for a few times and stared at Zhang Yang with a complicated look.
"Lao Wang didn't die because of you. He was just not as skilled as you, but that's not the point!"
"The key to the problem is - you two, you left the most important thing unfinished. Lao Wang died in vain. Lao Wang and I fought hard to get you a nine-day window. During these nine days, you can do whatever you want in this city. Why, why do you want to leave the city? Why don't you hurry up and run your business?"
"At the earliest, the day after tomorrow, or at most the day after tomorrow, there will be 300,000 to 500,000 demon corpses surrounding the city again. Twenty days later, a tide of one million demon corpses will be formed ahead of schedule. How can you stop them?"
The desperate bandit lowered his voice and roared.
"When the enemy comes, we will fight him; when the water comes, we will block it with earth."
Zhang Yang grinned, looking very relaxed, as if he didn't see the angry enemy who wanted to hack people.
Because he had anticipated this situation. Since this doomsday village building mission involved so many complex variables, the worst-case scenario was bound to occur.
Lao Wang and Qiong Kou are not saviors, or even if they are saviors, can they really handle everything?
He, Zhang, is not a real NPC and does not need them to redeem him.
Even if we take a step back and say that in just nine days, Zhang Yang frantically plundered resources and built a doomsday fortress, could he have prevented Lao Wang's death?
cannot.
Can he prevent the situation from taking a turn for the worse?
cannot!
In this case, it is meaningless for the poor enemy to question him.
"I hope you can still smile when the demon corpses approach the city." The poor enemy finally calmed down, "Or, what other cards do you have?"
"I don't have many cards to hide, but before that, shouldn't we have a frank talk?" Zhang Yang really hoped to hear something that interested him from Qiong Kou's mouth. "You want to activate the fourth sequence? If you have this idea, I don't mind telling you everything." Qiong Kou sneered.
So Zhang Yang immediately shook his head cautiously. What a joke! He was just a newbie who had just escaped from the second sequence. He had not even set foot in the third sequence, let alone the fourth sequence. At the critical moment, he had to survive fiercely. This was very important. Otherwise, there would be three hundred feet high weeds on Zhao Xianyu's grave in front of him and Zhao Dagang's corpse behind him.
"In that case, there is nothing more to say. What I have to do next is to protect this city from interference from the forces above the extraordinary within 60 days. As for the forces below the extraordinary, that is your business. That's all I can say. In addition, don't expect me to help you. You can't cross the line, and neither can I. You can't leave the city, understand?"
"But what if I want to leave the city? Will I be punished for this? Or will it cause you to be punished as well?" Zhang Yang stared into the eyes of the desperate enemy.
"No, but you will die. You don't understand what's going on at all. You and that guy's range of activities can only be limited to 50 kilometers around this city. If you dare to leave the city, it means you are out of the scope of the rules. There is a line - you don't understand." Qiongkou pointed at Qin Mingyue, who was at a loss in the distance.
"A line, you mean the end of the map?" Zhang Yang suddenly asked in a low voice.
The poor girl was immediately frightened and looked as if she had seen a ghost. Before she could say anything, she saw Zhang Yang thrust a fist towards her head.
"Soul shock!"
"I-I'll help!" The poor enemy was speechless. How could there be such a shameless person in the world? "Well, where were we just talking about?"
Zhang Yang has an innocent face, like a child.
"You said you wanted to leave the city. I can only say that if you want to die, go ahead. But if you are not extraordinary, don't ask me for help with the things in the city."
After saying this, the poor villain immediately turned away. She didn't want to say another word to such a shameless guy.
Zhang Yang seemed to be thinking about something.
Above the extraordinary is the mission of Lao Wang and Qiong Kou, and below the extraordinary is his mission. Now it is finally clear.
As for what is hidden behind this doomsday village building mission, don’t think about it and don’t care about it.
But we must leave the city.
In the city you can only build and collect supplies like crazy. It's very much like a tower defense construction game. However, the biggest rewards can only be obtained by leaving the city.
Besides, he has so many cards now, it would be stupid to waste them.
In addition, according to Qiong Kou, at most the day after tomorrow, that is, the twelfth day, after the demon corpses complete the second wave of evolution, they will lay siege to the city.
Then he still has one or two days to do it.
Thinking of this, Zhang Yang suddenly revealed a strange smile. The poor enemy kept saying that he couldn't cross the line, but she probably didn't know that after sniping the human demon cultivator, the Doomsday Village Building Order actually triggered a world-class side quest (special).
"World-class side quest, completed."
"Mission description: Due to some special reasons, you jumped out of your destiny. You encountered an enemy with strength above the extraordinary, but you still killed it successfully."
“This mission has no rewards, but it can be exchanged for 10 sudden side mission progress (30 important side mission progress).”
——
"So this means that I can recruit 300 armed mercenaries at once. If I don't do anything, I'll be no different from a salted fish."
Zhang Yang sneered, then quickly returned to the Doomsday Fortress, ignoring all other matters. He took Li Dong, Lu Long, and 20 technical team leaders to the mechanical modification workshop.
"Has the Level 4 base vehicle been pre-researched?"
"Boss, this preliminary research task was issued three days ago. According to the plan, it will take another 12 days to complete the preliminary research, but the success rate is only 64%."
A technical captain replied.
"So can we strengthen the level 3 base vehicle now?" Zhang Yang asked again.
"In theory, it is possible, but it requires very precious materials, and it is not cost-effective. The Level 3 base vehicle is actually a logistics vehicle with too few combat functions."
"That doesn't matter. Li Dong, Lu Long, what do you two want from this?"
Zhang Yang is now very wealthy.
"It lacks power and its engine power output is too small. Also, the car body is too big and runs too slowly. It would be even better if its off-road capability could be enhanced," said Li Dong.
"Okay, since there is no hope for a level 4 base vehicle for the time being, then a level 3.5 base vehicle is also possible."
"Don't worry about the engine power output. Just calculate it based on a speed of 200 kilometers per hour. If it doesn't work, remove the trailer at the back. In short, high speed, stability, and speed. Just give me the theoretical design, and leave the rest to me."
Zhang Yang made the decision with a wave of his hand.
By strengthening the experience gained from firearms, the entire base vehicle can be strengthened from beginning to end. It would be strange if the overall performance did not improve by several tens of percent.
If the design is further improved, the performance will be improved by at least 100%.
After solving this problem, Zhang Yang immediately recruited another 300 armed mercenaries. Now, construction and farming are not the main issue. He must gather at least 100 captain-level mercenaries before the second wave of evolution of the demon corpses. If he can promote a dozen mercenary kings, it will be even better.
No, this must be done.
Just think of this.
Zhang Yang gritted his teeth and took out a piece of purple hope fragment.
If we bring this thing back to the real world, let alone exchanging it for bullets, it would be easy to exchange it for ten fighter jets.
But at this moment, only 100,000 rounds of the most standard bullets can be exchanged.
But even so, it has to be exchanged.
Because the bullet production line in the Doomsday Fortress is in short supply, and the accuracy is also a bit poor, with a performance difference of about 20%. This was personally tested by Mai Tian, Du Chao and others.
It is no problem to shoot ordinary demon corpses, but it is difficult to deal with elite demon corpses.
This situation can only be solved by continuously training technical team leaders. In other words, we must follow the conventional farming construction route, and about a hundred technical team leaders can do it.
But in this situation, how can there be enough time to train a technical captain? Time is life and death!
Timing is everything! "Exchange again!"
Zhang Yang was ruthless and crazy enough. In the blink of an eye, two extremely precious purple fragments of hope turned into 200,000 rounds of the most standard bullets, which could be used for both automatic rifles and light machine guns.
In addition to the 100,000 low-quality bullets provided in the Doomsday Fortress, there are also 50,000 reloaded bullets.
A total of 350,000 rounds, it is easy to kill a tide of 100,000 demon zombies.
"But that's not enough!"
Zhang Yang immediately went to the weapons workshop and took out eighty guns. These were left by the mercenaries who died today. They were demonized by evil spirits and lost their lives, but the guns were still in good condition.
"All strengthened to the third stage."
Zhang Yang spent ten thousand units of ordinary iron, one thousand units of ordinary copper, and one hundred units of ordinary silver in one breath.
Another 10,000 armor-piercing bullets were specially strengthened.
You can be so willful when you have money.
After a busy period, the mechanical modification workshop finalized the modification plan for the level 3 base vehicle. Zhang Yang spent another 10,000 units of ordinary iron and 1,000 units of ordinary copper to strengthen the two level 3 base vehicles.
Li Dong and Lu Long each have one.
This is for running speed.
Zhang Yang used himself to calculate. When he was in his prime, he could reach an ultra-high speed of 100 meters per second in a short period of time. But if he ran for a long time, he could only run 200 kilometers in an hour at most. Of course, the abnormal people who practiced the Golden Elixir Dao were not included. They had all kinds of spells, such as the Floating Cloud Spell, the Gale Spell, and so on.
So by analogy, as long as you don't encounter a pervert from the Golden Core Dao or a flying demon, as long as you create some distance between you and them in advance, you will be able to succeed.
When the two level 3 base vehicles were modified and strengthened, Li Dong and Lu Long each took one out of the city for test drives.
When they came back half an hour later, their eyes had changed.
"Boss, this car is amazing. I bet that even a Level 4 base vehicle is not this cool! The engine, suspension, and drive are so smooth that I feel like I'm driving a mecha. I can't say anything else, but as long as it's on the road, I can easily reach a speed of 300 kilometers per hour. Even on ordinary flat ground, it can easily reach a speed of 120 kilometers per hour. You won't feel too bumpy when sitting in the car. You have to know that this is a big guy weighing 20 tons."
"Sure?"
"Sure?"
"What if we push the limit overload?" Zhang Yang asked in detail.
"If we use the maximum overload, this base vehicle can last at least 30 minutes. I estimate that the maximum speed can reach 400 kilometers per hour on the road. It is impossible to go higher because the car will become extremely difficult to control and will eventually fall apart due to the severe bumps."
"Very good, that's enough, you guys go and have a rest first, we have a tough battle tomorrow!"
Zhang Yang felt proud for a moment. It felt good to be so unscrupulous and to choose to confront the enemy head-on.
"Well, this is just the first time. I want to be the man of the God of Gou after all!"
