Chapter 282 Dungeon
On April 20, the construction of the base's bunker protection was completed. Lu Xingtang led the management to inspect their bunker. The bunker covered the entire Chengguan District, and the base was completely surrounded. Lu Xingtang walked and knocked with a hammer, confirming that the wall was strong, hard as iron, and as stable as Mount Tai. His expression relaxed.
But Lu Xingtang was not completely reassured. Instead, he asked Ji Yanmo to use his supernatural powers to attack the wall to see if the bunker wall could withstand the attack of supernatural powers. If it could, it would mean that the bunker was built very successfully.
Boom! Lightning bolts quickly gathered in the sky, as if a storm was about to come. Just as everyone was shouting to get back to the base quickly, the lightning bolts came crashing down and struck the bunker.
The bunker was safe and sound, but lightning struck it one after another, as if the bunker was the enemy of the lightning and was about to smash it to pieces. Lu Xingtang and Ji Yanmo pretended to be frightened and quickly dodged the lightning. "Everyone, hide quickly. We'll come out after the lightning is gone."
Lu Xingtang was pulled by Ji Yanmo and quickly found a place to hide. He held his breath and stared at the bunker. The power of lightning was very strong. The outer shell of the bunker was shattered by lightning, but the inner core of the bunker was fine.
Ji Yanmo didn't want people to suspect the problem of thunder and lightning, so he used his supernatural power to attack all the bunkers in the base. He scanned the inside of the base lightly, choosing places where no one was, and made sure that only the outer shell was damaged. Then Ji Yanmo slowly took away his thunder and lightning supernatural power: "Don't worry, the bunker is very strong!" As long as it is not a destructive and corrosive natural disaster, there will be no problem for the time being.
Lu Xingtang nodded, and after a while, he walked out to check the bunker. Seeing that the bunker had indeed only lost its outer shell and the core was fine, he was completely relieved.
Next is the issue of tempered glass. The tempered glass factory has been producing tempered glass. The support from GJ, the glass materials from the Chuncheng base, and the materials stockpiled by Lu Xingtang have all been used. The tempered glass factory has produced a lot of tempered glass since its construction, but it has all been used in base construction, such as office buildings, schools, hospitals, major planting areas and farms, survivors' residences, scientific research buildings and major technical factories. There is not much stockpile now, and it is difficult to use it to cover the base.
Lu Xingtang asked the tempered glass factory to work hard to produce, using only as much as it produced without wasting any, until it was no longer possible to produce tempered glass.
The bunker was completed, and Lu Xingtang and his team's base was considered to be completely completed. With the help of the GJ and SX provincial governments, their base was finally completed in more than two years.
The base has completely entered a normal operational state. As long as all the survivors live honestly and don't cause any trouble, and as long as the natural disasters are restrained, they will be able to stabilize.
After the base stabilized, Lu Xingtang began to inventory supplies and began building the dungeon. It had to accommodate at least all the survivors in their base, and it would ideally be larger. Lu Xingtang wasn't sure if the survivors from Chuncheng Base wouldn't come to Lancheng Base. After the natural disaster, survivors from other bases, or those scattered outside, wouldn't join them. Even he wasn't sure Lancheng Base could survive to the end.
Lu Xingtang called a meeting of management. "I plan to build an underground city as a last resort. We've already taken inventory of the supplies we have and can build an underground city, but the underground environment isn't as good as above ground. Now, let me ask for your opinion. Do you agree to build an underground city?"
The base management were all Lu Xingtang's classmates, so of course they followed Lu Xingtang's instructions: "The dungeon must be built. If a major natural disaster occurs and we have to evacuate, or if other places are affected by the disaster, we still have the dungeon to retreat to!"
"Besides, other bases have built underground cities, just on different scales! With underground cities, everyone has an extra escape route, which can allow many survivors to survive!"
"After the dungeon is built, even if we don't use it, we can store supplies there and free up the warehouses and other places on the surface for temporary accommodation for the survivors who come to our base! Of course, since we have to build the dungeon, we have to make it bigger, about the same size as our base."
The government officials also nodded in agreement: "I also think that we must build an underground city. Only when the underground city is built can our people live in peace. The end of the world is too difficult. I can't imagine that our people will not be willing to flee when they have no other choice!"
Lu Xingtang was very pleased: "Since you agreed to build an underground city, then we can start preparing now. The underground city doesn't need to be particularly sophisticated, as long as it is safe! At the same time, our base must increase revenue and reduce expenditure, and we need to stockpile a large amount of supplies. If we have to move into the underground city one day, we will have a hard time surviving without food. Outside the base, if the land quality is suitable for planting, we can also plant some!"
After deciding to build the underground city, everyone began to draw the blueprints of the underground city, and at the same time continued to organize people to go out to look for supplies. Steel bars and cement were not available, but there was plenty of wood and stone. Since they did not have any in the Chengguan District, they could go to other places. Lu Xingtang's consciousness was also rummaging through the space, sorting out all the wood and stone in the space, and waiting for the right opportunity to release all the wood and stone in the space for use in the construction of the underground city.
Three days later, the blueprint of the underground city was drawn up. The layout was very simple, just residences and warehouses, without any twists and turns, but they found a way to bring water and electricity underground, especially water.
Lu Xingtang was very satisfied with the layout of the underground city. After making sure there were no problems and that the underground city posed no threat to any buildings on the ground, they began to build the underground city.
On the day of the groundbreaking, everyone was superstitious. They worshipped heaven and earth, burned incense, and set off firecrackers, asking God to bless them to successfully build the underground city and survive the natural disaster.
Ji Yanmo took the initiative to take over the construction of the underground city, and asked Lu Xingtang to keep an eye on the base. He trusted him to build the underground city and would inform Lu Xingtang through the space if there were any problems. Lu Xingtang trusted Ji Yanmo and was very confident in handing over the construction of the underground city to him.
When the underground city was being built, the survivors of the Chuncheng Base had already arrived at the Lancheng Base. After receiving the news, Lu Xingtang immediately went to see the survivors of the Chuncheng Base.
All the survivors were skinny, dirty and decadent, without any energy at all. They sat on the ground and looked at her weakly. Lu Xingtang immediately asked people to send food and water, and asked them to eat something first, then register, check in, and receive temporary residence permits and daily necessities.
"Since you've come to Lancheng Base, you're now members of Lancheng Base. I don't know how you lived in Chuncheng Base, but now that you're here, you must obey our arrangements. As long as you behave yourself, I won't throw you out to fend for yourselves!"
