756 The Key of the Universe (2/2)
When his return to the apocalypse, there was a triumphant cheer at Desperate Beach.
After more than forty hours of intense battle, the wall was finally completed. The soldiers who were on the front line, on the beach, began to withdraw in batches and climbed onto the cement wall. The Mud Crabs' shell was thick and heavy, their teeths and pliers were sharp, but they did not have the ability to climb walls.
The four-meter-high wall was simply an insurmountable iron wall for these creatures! As long as several machine guns and a dozen shooters were allocated to each wall, the Mud Crabs on the edge of the wall would be cleared in time. The Mud Crabs would never be able to cross the line of defense!
After the wall was completed, the survivors were equally relieved and collapsed on the ground.
As soon as the time turned to March 1st, the door of Fallout Shelter 79 closed based on schedule. All the people who still had ulterior motives immediately stopped. If the wall could not be completed in time, NAC people may not die, but they absolutely have nowhere to escape.
Fortunately, the wall was completed before that point.
When everything was over, even they themselves were in disbelief that the Month of Disaster this year, the nightmare for the island, was stopped like that?!
At four o'clock in the afternoon, reinforcements from Wanghai arrived at the battlefield. At this point, NAC had deployed more than 2,000 troops to the island. 1,000 soldiers were stationed on the wall in front of Desperate Beach. Another 1,000 entered the city with Tiger II tanks and took control of Town No.79.
When the NAC soldiers were seen by survivors, they welcomed the soldiers into the town with cheers. These people were the poor survivors that did not have enough crystals and they were rejected by the fallout shelter. Compared to the unrequited Fallout Shelter 79, the name NAC was naturally more prestigious.
Li Wang ordered a hundred soldiers to set up a line of defense at the entrance of the fallout shelter and blocked the only entrance.
Since they dared to cause trouble for the wall, they could not blame NAC's ruthlessness.
With the establishment of the fence, NAC took over the line of defense in the northern part of the island, and Fallout Shelter 079 also had no need for its existence. As a result, the name of the township was also changed to Yizhou Town and was included in the economic zone of the NAC. The management model was still local people who manage the locals. The NAC would assign the executive officer to supervise and the garrison to maintain law and order.
As for who the mayor should be, Jiang Chen already had a candidate. He sent someone to Datun Nature Park and asked if Zhao Tianyu had any interest in being the mayor. After learning about the situation outside, Zhao Tianyu didn't hesitate at all and accepted Jiang Chen's invitation.
Before arriving in Yizhou and seeing Jiang Chen, he still couldn't believe who he had thought was an ordinary mercenary but was actually the General of NAC!
However, the fact was that, after confirming this point, while being shocked, he felt like he dodged a bullet. Fortunately, he did not do anything hostile, otherwise he would not be invited to become the mayor now...
As for the NAC's decision on Fallout Shelter 079, he also expressed his acceptance. Five years ago, he was not particularly favored in the fallout shelter. Five years later, he naturally had little loyalty left for the director.
After these trivial matters were settled, Jiang Chen then got in touch with the people at the White Beluga Station and agreed to transfer the space elevator to the western beach of Yizhou Island. The space elevator base, which was the size of several football fields, was disassembled into smaller pieces and were then packaged in containers and dropped to the bottom of the sea.
In addition, they also collected and shipped the rail wreckage.
In order to transport these things to the modern world, Jiang Chen spent a full two days. Over these two days he was on the sea floor almost every day, busy moving these treasures to the other world.
Graphene technology had made a breakthrough and Future Group has already established the theoretical basis for building a space elevator. Now with these ”garbage's” help from the 22nd century, controlling the space elevator, the key to the era of the universe, was finally on the agenda.
