Chapter 619 (1/2)
From the Julian mountains to the northwest, the mountains are in a ladder shape and gradually become plains. This is a quiet wilderness. At a glance, there are only low abnormal trees on the flat terrain. Even abnormal animals rarely appear here. Higher things, only those bent tower like a giant rickets still tenaciously standing on the ground. An old road covered by wind and sand passes through the earth, and sometimes it breaks and breaks. After passing through the plain, it enters a primeval forest. The trees in the forest are much larger than those in the old times. They look like spruce and pine, but they are thicker than the above two kinds of trees. The towering giant trees that need more than ten people to embrace each other form a primeval forest that seems to cover the earth, and there are more than 100 species and even more metamorphosis animals.
The road disappears completely when it arrives here. If someone makes statistics, it will be found that the forest extends to the warm area in the south at a speed of about 3 to 5 kilometers per year. This kind of aggressive phenomenon is not uncommon in the new era. All things try their best to plunder the remaining resources in order to survive. This is true of human beings, and animals and plants are no exception.
The end of the forest is a rolling mountain range. In the map of asgat, it is marked with the name ”osga”, which means the end of the continent. The terrain of osgar mountain is undulating, but the altitude is not high. From a distance, it is more like a huge dam, preventing the pace of the forest to the north. There is an artificial tunnel in Mount osgar, which seems to have been excavated in the old times. The tunnel is still well preserved, but there is no power facilities, which makes the nearly kilometer long tunnel shrouded in darkness for many years.
In the tunnel, it's the territory of the zombies. The living dead occupied the area and got a few places to live.
Behind the tunnel is a dried up river, with lifting gates and bridges connecting the plain on the other side of the river. Through this bridge, we can know that in the old days, there should have been ships on the river, otherwise the bridge would be meaningless. In fact, the outline of several boats can be seen in the upper reaches of the dry river, but they have become a pile of carved copper and rotten iron, and become the ”houses” of some wilderness refugees.
At the end of the plain connected by the gate and bridge is an abandoned seaside city. The size of the city is not large, but it looks like it was once a prosperous city with lots of buildings and facilities. Skyscrapers, straight roads, flyovers, parks, factories and even a playground in the south of the city, the isolated Ferris wheel has been watching the city for many years.
Although the city has been abandoned, it is not quiet. The playground to its south has become a habitat for some people. They occupied the open area and lived in the office building and various facilities of the former amusement park. The rest of the city has long been a paradise for dangerous mutants and living corpses, where people have to abide by many harsh rules. For example, you can't make too much noise in the daytime, otherwise it will attract the patronage of changelings or living corpses. Men, on the other hand, need to take risks in the city to get a few supplies back from the mouths or claws of other terrible creatures.
However, it seems that the life of these people can not last long, so a leader of the settlement put forward the suggestion of migration. Before that, they have to store as much food as possible. However, more than two months ago, some strangers came to the city. That day, as usual, the sky was shrouded by radiation clouds, and the constant sky brought almost desperate oppression to the earth. Just that morning, when the men in the settlement were going to venture into the city as usual, they heard the gunshot.
After the sound of gunfire, there was the roar of guns, and even the sharp sound of missiles whistling in the sky. That seemingly ordinary morning, the city fell into a war. After three days and two nights of war between outsiders and mutants, half of the city block near the harbor was almost flattened. Bold men came to look around and brought back shocking news.
Bodies!
The bodies of countless mutants, which seem ferocious on weekdays, turned into bodies scorched by the flames of war this morning. Some soldiers in protective clothing are cleaning the battlefield, while more have begun to build defense lines and guard towers, which seems to divide Haigang Street into protected areas. This makes the people in the settlement happy and afraid. They are glad that these outsiders almost empty the mutant animals in the South Street, and they are afraid that the dangerous neighbors don't know what kind of threat they will cause.
Obviously, fear outweighs pleasure. Soon, outsiders discovered the existence of the settlement, and then a team of soldiers visited the amusement park in the afternoon. The officer in charge put forward a condition that the settlement could not refuse. They needed workers and hoped that the people in the settlement could work for them. The condition is that all the refugees in the playground can live in their defense line and pay them a small salary. These salaries can't make them rich, but they can buy the necessary living materials from them.
No one would refuse that, would they? So the people of the settlement soon completed the short migration, and soon the outsiders began to rebuild the area. The necessary defense lines were built in two days. They divided the safe and dangerous areas with barbed wire. The sentry tower and anti-aircraft gun became the barrier that the wandering mutants could not get close to in the dangerous area. In particular, the artillery tank that people in the settlement only saw in the magazines of the old times became the patron saint in their hearts.After the defense line was pulled up, the people in the settlement began to build factories and water storage tanks under the command of outsiders. Among them, the well-informed leader told us that the water purification factory and food synthesis factory built by outsiders are most likely to be the necessary facilities for people to survive in the new era. It can be seen that these outsiders may want to stay here for a long time.
Soon, when a building similar to a power station began to be built, people were more sure of the idea.
Facts have proved that these people are right. In two months, the water purification plant and food synthesis plant have been basically completed. The factory is actually the shell of the factory, but some necessary equipment are pulled to the defense area by trucks, and then can be put into use after assembly. At this time, the people in the settlement have turned into workers in these factories, and after the simple training of outsiders, they have stepped onto the production line.
They don't know what these outsiders are going to do, but occasionally from each other's conversation, they seem to have plans to transform this place into a permanent port city, which makes the people in the original settlement very happy. Finally, they don't have to worry about their livelihood. As long as they work hard, they have the hope of survival.
As usual, at seven o'clock in the morning, the workers came to the factory one after another. The power station was completed yesterday and the cables connecting the plant were installed last night. The generating units started working this morning, which made the two plants ready for operation. When the workers entered the factory, a special motorcade came from the entrance and exit of the defense area.
Several tractors pulled a huge object from the other side of the road. It was wrapped in a thick waterproof cloth, and traction components were installed under it. I didn't know what was under the waterproof cloth. But at least the workers know why the main road leading to the port should be so wide when planning the defense area. It was originally for today's traffic.
Behind the mysterious object were some off-road vehicles, on which sat some men and women. To the workers' surprise, these people are not wearing protective clothing, they are directly exposed to the air full of radiation. But it seems that they don't care. Workers have heard that only those with legendary abilities can be exposed to the air full of radiation, and will not produce abnormal organizations like ordinary people.
One of the men who made the workers curious was an Asian with black hair and yellow skin. But his eyes, unexpectedly is one black one gold two completely different pupil colors!
He looked back at the workers who were passing by and said to the smart brain screen in an unexpected way: ”the progress here is surprisingly fast. Power stations, water purification plants and food factories have been built. It is said that some of the port facilities have been preserved and can be used only after necessary maintenance and repair. Your people are very efficient, and that's a key step in the harbour city project. ”
On the smart brain screen, Beyonce wearing a safety helmet looked proud: ”of course, if it wasn't for this kind of efficiency, how could I make black rose equal to the other two families in just ten years.”
”I know you can do it, in every way.” Zero language with pun said, looking at the other side of the screen Beyonce a face angry appearance, he laughed and asked: ”dawn city construction is still smooth?”
