Bai City is located in the northwest of China.
If we take Xu Zhengyang's shelter as the center, a radius of three thousand kilometers could cover nearly half of Eurasia! With this in mind.
Whether it's maintaining the cotton industrial park in Xinjiang or collecting various raw materials from other regions, everything would be incredibly convenient for Xu Zhengyang! His shelter would no longer be troubled by a lack of raw materials!
"With the hyperspace teleportation platform, the portal I previously obtained can now retire with honor."
Xu Zhengyang said.
He then deactivated the portal in Linshui City and bound the coordinates to the newly acquired hyperspace teleportation platform.
After completing these tasks.
Xu Zhengyang finally opened his mission list to check the latest main mission:
[Main Mission: Smelting Upgrade (In Progress)]
[With the expansion of the shelter, your smelting workshop can no longer meet your current smelting needs.
To ensure the normal development of the shelter, please upgrade your smelting workshop!]
[Mission Objective: Upgrade the smelting workshop (requires a total area of no less than 6,500 square meters, with a maximum daily output of no less than 2,500 tons)]
[Mission Reward: Intermediate Intelligence Awakening Serum]
After reviewing the mission details, Xu Zhengyang immediately instructed Da Bai, "Da Bai, I temporarily grant you the authority to use the Four-Dimensional Rubik's Cube and the engineering robot.
Expand the area of the smelting workshop to five thousand square meters for me!"
"Understood, Master."
Da Bai responded and immediately began working according to Xu Zhengyang's instructions.
This mission was quite straightforward.
Xu Zhengyang only needed to wait for the smelting workshop expansion to be completed and then acquire some electric arc furnaces to easily complete the mission.
Just as Xu Zhengyang was about to have Da Bai send him navigation information to go out and search for electric arc furnaces.
Da Bai suddenly alerted him, "Master, Master, according to the footage from the solar-powered surveillance probe you previously placed near Chen Yong's house.
Someone is causing trouble for him!"
Before Da Bai could finish speaking.
He sent a surveillance view to Xu Zhengyang's contact lenses:
In the footage.
It was Zhou Xin from the New Bai City survivor camp, who had previously led a convoy into Xu Zhengyang's shelter! When Xu Zhengyang saw Zhou Xin violently smashing Chen Yong's door with a hammer, his expression instantly darkened.
"I should have killed him that day!"
Before Xu Zhengyang could finish speaking, he immediately rushed out of the shelter!
Then, Xu Zhengyang switched the Hurricane Light Multi-Function Mecha to shuttle mode and flew straight towards Chen Yong's house!
...
In less than a minute, Xu Zhengyang arrived above Chen Yong's house.
Just as Xu Zhengyang was about to kill Zhou Xin and leave two T-800 combat robots to protect Chen Yong's family.
Suddenly!
A series of system messages appeared before Xu Zhengyang's eyes: [Time-limited Emergency Mission: External Brain (In Progress)]
[Mission Objective: Follow Zhou Xin and bring the alien legacy he discovered back to the shelter]
[Time Limit: 23 hours, 59 minutes, and 53 seconds]
Seeing the mission prompt, Xu Zhengyang was momentarily stunned.
Then he quickly reacted, immediately donning his flight combat suit and storing the Hurricane Light Multi-Function Mecha in the Dimensional Space Pocket! Immediately after.
Xu Zhengyang landed silently near Chen Yong's residence and asked Da Bai, "What's going on with Zhou Xin? Wasn't he the captain of the New White City survivor camp? How did he end up like this?"
Upon hearing this, Da Bai immediately connected to the ten T-800 combat robots that Xu Zhengyang had sold to the New White City survivor camp. After compiling the collected information, Da Bai replied, "After the last incident, Zhou Xin was relieved of his command and reassigned to the front-line agricultural production team. Initially, he worked diligently in the production team. But a week ago, Zhou Xin suddenly took advantage of his position to steal a wheelbarrow full of food and then secretly left the New White City survivor camp."
"What?" Xu Zhengyang was speechless after hearing Da Bai's report. This guy really is... quite something! Fortunately, the door to Chen Yong's house was custom-made before the apocalypse, so it's definitely sturdy enough!
Because of this, Zhou Xin struggled for over half an hour but couldn't do anything to the iron door, eventually exhausting himself and panting heavily.
"Bastard..." Realizing he couldn't succeed, Zhou Xin sat at Chen Yong's doorstep to rest for a while, then cursed and left the place...
It must be said that although Zhou Xin's character isn't great, his vigilance is quite strong. He took a winding path, deliberately making several detours before finally entering an unfinished building.
Just as Xu Zhengyang followed Zhou Xin into the building, he suddenly sensed a strong, undisguised malice directed at him!
At the same time, Zhou Xin abruptly turned around, pulled out a pistol, and pointed it in Xu Zhengyang's direction, shouting, "Who's there? Show yourself!"
"Oh?" Xu Zhengyang said with interest. This was the first time the optical camouflage function of his Flight Combat Suit had been detected! He had followed Zhou Xin all the way without being noticed, so it couldn't have been Zhou Xin who detected his camouflage. That meant he must be near the mission target!
Having figured this out, Xu Zhengyang decided to stop hiding. He immediately took out his Dimensional Space Pocket and retrieved his Magnetic Shield Chain Drone to protect himself.
Just as Xu Zhengyang activated the Electromagnetic Shield with the drone, "Bang! Bang! Bang! Bang..." Zhou Xin fired several shots in Xu Zhengyang's direction, emptying his magazine. Although the Electromagnetic Shield generated by the drone wasn't as powerful as the one in Xu Zhengyang's shelter, it was still more than enough to block small-caliber kinetic weapons. Seeing his bullets stopped by a faint blue energy shield, Zhou Xin looked as if he had seen a ghost, his eyes nearly popping out of their sockets. Without hesitation, he threw away the pistol and bolted upstairs.
"Worthless," Xu Zhengyang sneered. With a wave of his hand, he dispatched another Magnetic Shield Chain Drone to deal with Zhou Xin, then quickly changed into his portable combat suit.
Next, Xu Zhengyang released various types of drones from his Dimensional Space Pocket in an instant. He then began systematically controlling all the drones to search the unfinished building floor by floor.
Xu Zhengyang was determined to find out what that malicious entity was that could see through his optical camouflage! But just at that moment.
Xu Zhengyang suddenly noticed someone attempting to hack into the drone's operating system, trying to wrest control of the drone from him! However, Xu Zhengyang was using the Quantum Mapping skill to control the drone.
The drone was like an extension of his own body. To hack into the drone, one would first need to deal with Xu Zhengyang!
I know that with my chronic procrastination, if I don't force myself to finish writing today, I definitely won't want to do it later.
Finally, everything is caught up. Time to sleep, sleep! (End of chapter)
