Chapter 335 Hope
Australia.
A desert covered with ice and snow.
In a dark and empty underground shelter.
Hawke sat on the spring bed with a wooden expression, staring blankly at the damaged posters not far away with empty eyes.
Like a lifeless sculpture.
He has lived alone in this small shelter for more than 9 months.
His mentality also changed from the beginning, when he was lucky enough to inherit the shelter from the previous owner, to the loss and madness of the network being cut off and various entertainment devices malfunctioning one after another, and finally to the end of his heart.
He stepped into the abyss of despair little by little.
Snap!
The night light that supported the last faint light in the underground space suddenly malfunctioned.
After flashing a few times, it suddenly went out.
The deep and suffocating darkness awakened Hawke from his confusion.
He tried to open his eyes wide, but he could not see anything.
And in his subconscious groping.
His fingertips touched a hint of the cold texture of metal.
It was a fruit knife that he had brought to the bed at some point.
Following his instincts, he took the fruit knife in his hand.
Hawke was like a possessed man. Unconsciously, he slowly pressed the blade of the fruit knife against his throat.
He saw that if he used a little more force,
he would be able to be completely free.
A strange sound with the sound of electricity suddenly sounded in the silent darkness.
It was faint but extremely clear.
Hawke suddenly woke up. Before he realized it,
he had thrown away the fruit knife and rushed to the old-fashioned radio on the bedside table.
With trembling fingers, he switched channels.
Soon,
a long-lost human voice sounded on the radio.
"This is the Dongzhou Jianghe City Radio Station--"
Hawke blinked his eyes and suddenly cried silently.
South America.
Turbulent Large Shelter.
In this shelter for tens of thousands of people.
At this time, the atmosphere was solemn. Everyone wore their best clothes and gathered in the largest square of the shelter.
Some people could not squeeze into the square.
They gathered in other public places such as meeting rooms, cafeterias, and entertainment rooms,
watching what was happening in the square through the TV broadcast.
"Everyone, I regret to announce something."
"The natural disasters on the surface are becoming more and more frequent."
"The world's population is decreasing at a terrifying rate."
"As of last month, we have not received any response to the signals we sent to the outside world."
"From this, we infer that we may have become the last survivors in the world."
"We are also the last place favored and protected by God."
The public speech of a middle-aged man wearing a crown on the highest platform in the square caused a commotion among the crowd.
Many residents of the shelter who were watching the ceremony showed expressions of mourning with empathy.
"In order to restore the glory of mankind."
"Now I declare that the Kingdom of Stuart is officially established."
"We will become the spark of human civilization, recuperate here, and grow stronger."
"I promise that one day, we humans will once again conquer the vast land on the ground."
The impassioned speech resounded through every corner of the shelter through the loudspeaker and broadcast.
Everyone present, more or less, could not help but have a sense of mission to witness history.
There was a faint sense of blood boiling.
They were already the last group of humans in the world.
They should take on more responsibilities.
At this moment, they will decide the future system, laws, and everything else of the entire human world.
But at this moment.
I don't know if it was a setting problem or some other reason.
All the large-screen TVs used to broadcast the square scene suddenly switched to the news broadcast of Jianghe City TV after a chaotic flash.
In the picture, there were tens of millions of workers and robots.
In the corner of the sky that can be glimpsed occasionally, under the protection of the vast light blue shield, a magnificent tower that has never been imagined is being built in full swing.
"This is the TV station of Jianghe City, Dongzhou."
"At present, the construction of the first phase of the Jianghe City shelter is progressing smoothly-"
The passionate speech came to an abrupt end.
The residents under the square looked at each other.
There was confusion in their eyes.
Xizhou.
The Holy City of Venus.
The white sculptures painted with reference to the angels and gods in mythology.
Standing on both sides of the palace-like city square and streets.
Well-dressed pedestrians shuttled through these magnificent streets.
It vaguely revealed the prosperous atmosphere from the peaceful times.
But if you look closely.
You can find that these pedestrians' faces do not have the ease and comfort before the end of the world.
There is only numbness and fatigue.
There is also a trace of deep loneliness.
It is like a lake without living water.
Decay and withering are gradually occupying the mainstream here at an inconspicuous speed.
And at a certain moment.
The huge screen in the city square
suddenly stopped broadcasting the church choir live.
Instead, it showed an infinitely vast ice field and a huge man-made building that reached into the sky and whose entirety could not be seen.
Between the two, a giant steel spaceship was slowly descending from the sky.
Stunned pedestrians stopped to watch.
For a time, they thought it was a video clip from an unknown science fiction movie.
Until someone present suddenly found that there was a strange network signal on his mobile phone.
It can connect to a vast and strange network world -
outer space.
Synchronous orbit.
Valhalla Space Shelter.
Artificially modulated golden sunlight, sprinkled on the artificial garden.
It looks quiet and peaceful.
A beautiful girl sitting in the garden closed the book in her hand out of boredom.
Life in Valhalla.
It looks no different from the past environment, but it is actually extremely boring.
It's like being in a set built in an abandoned warehouse.
Unless your eyes are focused on that small area, if you slightly shift your sight, you can see the uncomfortable cruel reality.
"I shouldn't have listened to my parents."
"I moved here."
The girl complained softly, with both distress and a little unwillingness on her delicate face.
When she was on Earth,
she was an extremely smart girl. She
had an incredible talent for machinery.
If she still stayed on the surface, with the abundant resources there,
she might live a little more dangerously than now.
But she would also have more freedom.
Ding!
A crisp bell sounded from not far away.
The mechanical doll placed on a small white wooden table on the lawn
suddenly floated up automatically.
Then it flew silently in front of the girl.
A classic computer operation interface was projected.
"Hey, there's a strange network signal here."
The girl glanced casually, and her eyes suddenly became bright.
It was as if she saw a new world.
She stretched out her finger and registered her account in it.
"Silvia——"
Dongzhou.
Jianghe City, a small farmyard. A huge amount of data is continuously transmitted to the supercomputer center here
through two Eden satellites in synchronous orbit. Together they converge into a vast network world. A large amount of unknown intelligence is filtered and refined by artificial intelligence. Then every few minutes, a new summary report is compiled and submitted to Su Wu. Let him gradually have a comprehensive understanding of the current earth. "The entire earth has now dropped from 10.7 billion people before the end of the world to less than 6 billion." In less than a year, 4.7 billion people died. This shocking number makes anyone who sees it only give a horrifying evaluation. "The main disaster-stricken areas are from Heizhou, southwest Dongzhou and Yingdao." "The secondary areas are Xizhou, South America, and the border between the east and the west." "The types of disasters, from strong to weak, are Amethyst, earthquakes and floods, famine and plague, and cold." Amethyst's disasters are all over the world. It even completely wiped out the entire population of a continent. Until now, except for being temporarily suppressed in Dongzhou, the war with humans in other regions has never stopped. It deserves to be ranked first. Earthquakes and floods are a general concept. From the tsunami in the early days of the end of the world, to the frequent earthquakes that occurred all over the world throughout the end of the world, to the previous transition period from extreme heat to extreme cold, the heavy rains that turned most of the land into swamps. The cumulative casualties caused by these disasters are more than 1.5 billion, second only to Amethyst. The scope of famine and plague is also extremely wide. The most typical ones are the southwest of Dongzhou and the border between the east and the west. The so-called southwest of Dongzhou. It is not the Western Wilderness Plateau where the capital of Dongzhou is located today. Instead, it was in the vast and densely populated subcontinent further south of the Western Wilderness Plateau. Because of the large population, small land area, and scarce resources, coupled with the extreme recklessness of the local rulers, a world-destroying catastrophe caused by natural and man-made disasters was eventually brewed. At least hundreds of millions of people died in the famine brought about by this catastrophe. Then a large number of deaths triggered a plague. Through the floods that raged on the surface at that time, it spread wildly. Until finally all order collapsed. Large areas of shelters disappeared under famine, plague, and a series of other secondary disasters derived from them. The same is true at the border between the east and the west. However, due to the vast land and sparse population, the local forces are complicated. The intensity of the disaster that finally broke out was slightly lower than that in the southwest of Dongzhou. But even so, the number of people who died of famine in the end was still counted in the hundreds of millions. Compared with these, the casualties caused by the extreme cold that seemed even worse at the end were relatively the lightest. "Amethyst is the battle for the survival of civilization." "Earthquakes and floods are natural disasters." "Famine and plague are man-made disasters." Data compiled with the help of artificial intelligence. Looking at the photos of shelters that were either turned into scorched earth or fell into silence in the data, Su Wu seemed to be reading a history of the demise of human civilization. He also responded to them one by one with the direction of his current development and construction. The development of the seventh-generation fighter, the refining of uranium, the manufacture of nuclear weapons, the establishment and expansion of the spider robot army, the reverse analysis and development of laser beam main guns, electromagnetic rail guns and other powerful weapons. It is mainly to deal with the threat of amethyst. Expand the shelter, strengthen the outer wall of the shelter, develop electromagnetic protection arrays, and always keep the overall shape of the shelter into a standard cylinder. It is to deal with natural disasters such as earthquakes and volcanic eruptions. Each expansion of a shelter, before the population moves in. First, establish a plantation that is sufficient to supply the corresponding population with food, and a strict and almost harsh ventilation, disinfection, testing and other epidemic prevention systems. It is to avoid famine and plague. And so far. Su Wu, or the farmyard shelter, did an excellent job in every link here. There were no major mistakes. After a preliminary understanding of the situation outside Dongzhou, Su Wu began to plan the next arrangements. First of all, the global logistics and trading network built with eleven seventh-generation fighters as the core must be opened as soon as possible. Because of the closure and separation. Some shelters located in the Western Hemisphere are extremely eager for some ordinary resources and ordinary industrial products. Basically, it can be done that a truckload of ordinary resources can be exchanged for the same truckload of rare resources. The benefits are greater than robbery. Take this part of the benefits. Su Wu can at least build a few Morning Light-class transport ships in advance. And by the way, it can also be regarded as helping those shelters on the verge of collapse. Try to reduce some human casualties. The population of other continents is also population. After dealing with the affairs of Dongzhou, if nothing unexpected happens. Su Wu will continue to target the residents of the shelters in other continents. Those ordinary civilians.
The high and mighty people don't care, but Su Wu does.
He is willing to pay a certain price to save them.
Of course, before saving them, Su Wu will set an invisible threshold
for other continents . For all the rescued people, a comprehensive psychological and behavioral test will be conducted. Only residents whose final test scores are above the passing line will be qualified to live in the farmyard. For those who are below the passing line, if there are still idle shelters to accommodate them, they will be concentrated in those shelters after their weapons are confiscated, and left to fend for themselves. If there is no place to accommodate them, they will be killed on the spot. "The passing score for the test will not be set too high." "As long as you can maintain the average moral quality level of Dongzhou, you can generally pass." "Of course, there may be some exceptions occasionally." "For example, zero-yuan purchases, white feathers, etc." "Even if these behaviors are not considered big mistakes in the law, or they cannot be considered crimes at all." "But given their bad influence." "They cannot be brought to the farmyard." "Let them be buried in the past along with the end of the world." "In the new world, these extreme thoughts are not allowed to exist."
Chapter 336 Vacuum Ejection Traction Channel
May 18.
After a few days of fermentation.
The shock brought by the global network officially turned into a tsunami, sweeping every corner of the world.
Many people knew for the first time.
It turned out that during the past days when communications were cut off, more than 100 new countries and autonomous regions had emerged in the world.
There were billions of people.
It was once thought that the number of survivors in the entire world was less than one million.
At the same time.
On this day.
The second Morning Light-class transport ship rolled off the production line.
The number of people that Su Wu could transfer every day increased from 10 million to about 20 million.
The pace of unifying Dongzhou has quietly accelerated.
Farmhouse courtyard, underground control center.
"At present, the first four floors of the new surface area have been completed."
"It looks a bit decent."
On the holographic projection suspended in front of Su Wu.
The complete body of the farmhouse courtyard has grown from more than 500 meters in height to 790 meters.
In appearance, it has become much thicker from a thin round cake.
It has a bit of the image of a traditional cylinder.
Affected by Su Wu's decision to divert most of the labor resources to the surface,
the construction progress of the underground part has fallen into a state of near stagnation.
The 14th underground floor has not been completed yet.
And in the foreseeable future, it will be a long way from completion.
On the contrary, the surface part
is changing with each passing day.
Excluding the first three floors that are more than 150 meters high,
the new area starting from the 4th floor above ground, all the way to the 7th floor that has just been capped today.
The newly added height adds up to two or three hundred meters.
From a distance,
it looks like a giant city surrounded by towering walls.
"The 4th floor above ground is mainly plantations, and the 5th floor is mainly farms."
"At present, the initial construction of these two floors has been completed."
"Officially started production."
"It is expected that the first batch of output will be put into the internal market of the shelter within half a month at the earliest."
"Greatly improve the dietary conditions of all residents."
The food production area of these two floors.
Although the main purpose is to supply basic rations to the population that will be relocated later.
But under its huge production capacity.
It can still benefit other ordinary residents to some extent.
At the same time, with their existence,
Su Wu has the confidence to expand the population recklessly.
"The 6th to 7th floors above ground are residential areas with standard dormitories as the main feature."
"Currently, only on the 6th floor, there are about 10 million people living, and the rest are still vacant."
On the holographic map,
the top 7 floors of the shelter gradually enlarged.
The 75-meter inner layer height and the 6-meter thick foundation
have built a magnificent super-giant city.
The 75-meter floor height
means that it can accommodate 25 floors of residential buildings.
With the most compact layout, every eight people in a dormitory share a small toilet with a shower.
On average,
according to the activity space of about 37 cubic meters per person,
it will eventually allow 80 million people to live in the same floor of the shelter.
"But the vacancy is only temporary."
"Soon, this place will be filled with a steady stream of people from all over Dongzhou."
"And it will continue to spread to the 8th floor, the 9th floor, and even higher."
"By then, the demand for resources will reach a terrifying level."
People need air, water and food to survive.
The consumption of a single person may not be noticeable.
But if its number is magnified to hundreds of millions,
the oxygen consumed by breathing alone every day will be tens of thousands of tons.
And 100 million people is just the population of a farmyard in the future.
"The current source of oxygen in the shelter mainly relies on photosynthesis in the plantation."
"The second is the external ventilation duct." "
The alternative means of emergency are electrolysis of water and chemical oxygen production."
"It can barely reach a balance."
The ventilation system of the shelter that Su Wu had spent a lot of survival points to strengthen.
It has long been unable to support the huge population of over 100 million people.
It has become a private butler who is only responsible for providing environmental protection for the core area where Su Wu is located.
Outside the core area.
The air circulation system, which was redrawn by artificial intelligence and combined with the work of a large number of elite scholars,
has become the underlying framework of the entire shelter.
It is connected to large and small pipes throughout the shelter, with a total length of more than one million kilometers.
The air in the entire shelter is kept in a state of non-stop circulation.
The oxygen ratio in each place is balanced.
Toxic substance detection and virus monitoring are also carried out. Every liter of air is guaranteed to be free of any abnormalities
before leaving the current shelter level, or even the current community or current building. "If you encounter extreme situations." "If the plantation is destroyed and fresh air can no longer be drawn from the outside world." "Emergency measures can also provide the shelter with more than hundreds of thousands of tons of oxygen consumption every day." "Enough to ensure that the air quality in the shelter will not deteriorate for a long time." "It's just that at that time, the extra electricity consumed every day will become extremely terrifying." "Maybe we have to add a few more nuclear reactors to generate electricity to keep up with it." In addition to air. Food and water also constitute a complex and sophisticated system. Plantations built to produce food. It can almost be said that it is the largest category in the shelter. How much space a shelter resident occupies in daily life and entertainment. At least twice this space will be used to build plantations. Whether it is a plantation, daily life in the shelter, or industrial production. They all rely on huge water supply. With each water tower and reservoir as a node, the water pipes spread throughout the shelter. The total length is even several times longer than the ventilation ducts. "Complex and sophisticated systems are not without benefits." "Their huge size also represents a higher ability to deal with risks." "As long as the entire shelter is not destroyed at once." "It will be difficult to completely collapse the internal water circulation, air circulation and plantation system." "And once the fire is retained, it will undoubtedly be much simpler to repair it with it as the core." After examining the basic functions of the shelter and confirming that it is tough enough, Su Wu turned his attention to the 8th and 9th floors under construction. At this time, on the huge construction site, tens of millions of workers are working every moment. A huge amount of materials, at an incredible speed. It became the partition walls, beds, wardrobes, lighting equipment and water and electricity networks of each room. It gradually spread and improved on the 8th floor of the shelter of nearly 40 million square meters. At the same time, such a huge construction demand has also spawned two developed industries. Standardized containers of different specifications, and vacuum ejection and traction channels. Standardized containers seem simple. In fact, when combined with the requirements of durability, low cost, safety and reliability, the technical content inside is not low at all. The vacuum ejection and traction channel is an advanced version of the conveyor belt. It can transmit materials to the other end at ultra-high speed through a special vacuum pipe in a very short time. The efficiency can reach hundreds or thousands of times that of traditional conveyor belts. In the limited space of the farmyard with a diameter of 7 kilometers, the time consumed in the transportation process can be basically reduced to a negligible level. "The current vacuum ejection traction channel is mainly divided into three types." "Transporting solid substances, liquids, and standard containers." "The first two are responsible for transporting those large-volume ordinary resources." "The latter is used to transport standard containers with a volume of one cubic meter." For the needs inside the shelter. Rare resources, precision parts and instruments that usually need to be transported separately are not too large, or can be disassembled. They can be completely placed in a one-cubic-meter container. A small number of large items can also be transported separately through lifting platforms, etc. "Wait until the cost drops further in the future." "When this kind of traction channel can be laid in the outside world." "The speed of transporting materials can be further accelerated." "In fact, even now, some mines located in remote mountainous areas have already built vacuum channels." "It is used to quickly export the excavated and refined minerals to the plains outside the mountains, so that the Ice Lake-class transport ships can take them away." "However, those pipelines, strictly speaking, are still traditional conveyor belts. They are not the products of the same era as today's traction pipelines. The efficiency is also many times different." "It is not suitable for long-distance transportation of more than 100 kilometers." "And for ordinary mine products, there is no need to build such traction channels." "Their production capacity is not enough to support this method of transporting bulk goods." "On the contrary, it is more convenient to use Ice Lake-class transport ships directly to transport them back one by one."
Chapter 337 Industrial Mecha
Although the Ice Lake-class transport ship is slow, its 10,000-ton load capacity is enough to make up for everything. It
has become the most powerful means of transportation besides the towing channel.
After a brief imagination of the future,
Su Wu continued to switch the projection in front of him to the map of Dongzhou.
Next, everything is done step by step. All
he needs to do is to ensure that there will be no mistakes in the general direction.
Afternoon.
Farmyard, fifth floor underground.
Qiushan Middle School.
As the bell rang for the end of class.
An Jun packed up his textbooks and put them in his desk, and walked out of the school gate slowly. It's
called a school gate.
In fact, it's the iron fence at the entrance of the stairs on the first floor.
In this shelter, almost all schools do not have traditional campuses.
The activity space is gathered in classrooms that are not very spacious.
Although the conditions are not good.
The places to study in them are still very precious.
Especially in the high school stage where An Jun is currently.
Basically, on average, only the top ten out of thousands of junior high school students are eligible to continue to study.
And even if you are admitted, it does not mean that you can study with peace of mind.
In addition to completing the necessary homework at school every day,
after school, you must also participate in a certain amount of labor.
Only if you work an average of four hours a day, minus holidays and weekends, for three consecutive years,
or obtain labor credits of equal value,
can you be qualified to take the college entrance examination.
Otherwise, you can only get a high school diploma, and you still have to make up for the insufficient labor hours in the form of voluntary labor in the future.
It is equivalent to paid learning.
Meet up with friends in the community cafeteria.
Receive today's dinner.
An Jun found a seat and sat down to eat slowly.
He received an E-level set meal today. It is
only one level higher than the lowest grade.
There are some vegetables, diced radish, bean sprouts, and a small portion of sauce made from unknown meat.
The taste is not good or bad, probably similar to the fast food that cost more than ten yuan before the end of the world.
But An Jun is already very satisfied with it.
Coming from Shanghe City, after experiencing the disintegration of the shelter in the end of the world and the life of the victims without food and clothing,
he knows very well that everything in front of him has been very hard-won.
It is also a paradise in the eyes of many outsiders.
"Anjun, you fell to the seventh from the bottom in this monthly exam."
"Are you still going to stick with it?"
While eating, his good friend Zheng Mingzhe next to him talked to him about his studies.
"Just hold on for a while."
When it comes to this, Anjun's originally good mood becomes a little depressed.
In the end times, those who can enter high school are all elites selected from thousands of people.
In the past, they were all academic masters.
The pressure of competing with this group of people is not small.
That has slightly exceeded the scope of hard work and has risen to the level of competing for talent.
Unfortunately, Anjun's talent is obviously not outstanding among a large number of academic masters.
And what is even more frustrating
is that even if you grit your teeth and stick to it under heavy pressure,
if you fail to enter university in the end,
you can only get a high school diploma.
That thing, before the end of the world, almost everyone has it.
It is basically not much different from a piece of waste paper.
But if Anjun is asked to give up, he will not be willing.
Because this is the only visible channel for upward mobility in the shelter.
If he missed this opportunity, he would just become one of the hundreds of millions of ordinary workers like everyone else.
"Come on."
Zheng Mingzhe could feel the entanglement in his friend's heart, but he could do nothing to help.
He himself was actually doing worse.
He didn't even get into high school, so he was forced to join the full-time work in advance.
But it was not without benefits.
At least, in recent times, he has accumulated a lot of shelter points and game universal currency.
His life is much more comfortable than An Jun who has no time to play games.
After dinner.
The two of them took the shelter's aerial rail transit train to the workplace this time, the C area construction site on the 8th floor above the ground.
The whole body is oval, with tempered glass inlaid all around, and can accommodate up to 8 people sitting face to face in a single-section aerial rail transit train.
It is a new type of transportation that has only begun to become popular in the shelter in the past month.
It runs on a track built above the shelter streets.
It can reach a maximum speed of 70 kilometers per hour.
Coupled with its small and flexible body, it can easily shuttle through most of the spaces in the shelter.
Basically, no matter which station you get on,
you can reach your destination within 15 minutes.
Sitting on the skytrain that began to move steadily,
An Jun turned his head and looked out the huge glass window.
Those neat 4-story buildings, as well as the low saplings and other green plants planted in the narrow streets,
passed by his eyes one by one.
"Speaking of which."
"It's still a little incredible to think about it now."
"It only takes fifteen minutes for us to pass through the homes of hundreds of millions of people and arrive in front of any of them."
"If it were before the end of the world, I'm afraid it would only appear in science fiction novels."
At this time, there were only two of them in the huge carriage.
Zheng Mingzhe had nothing to do, so he imitated An Jun's movements and looked out the window with some emotion.
The surface before the end of the world.
Even if you want to pass through a super city within fifteen minutes, it is unlikely.
And a super city only has tens of millions of people.
By comparing them like this,
you can feel more deeply how magnificent and incredible the shelter they are in now is.
I am afraid that it is well deserved to be called an epic project of human civilization.
"This is probably our luck."
"It is fortunate to be able to live in such a shelter."
An Jun smiled faintly, his eyes fell on the street outside the window.
Through the various details printed on the exterior walls of those unchanging buildings, their uses can be identified.
Residential areas, leisure and entertainment areas, agricultural buildings, light industrial production factories, etc.
He saw more thoroughly than his companions.
It is indeed amazing to be able to build such a huge and complete shelter.
But if the power of the entire East Continent is gathered before the end of the world, it may not be impossible to replicate several shelters of the same specifications.
However, being able to build is one thing.
Whether resources can be allocated reasonably is another matter.
Without universal fairness, limited resources are used to the extreme.
It is impossible to achieve what we see now.
Feeding a population of over 100 million.
Ten minutes later.
Passing through the streets on the 5th floor underground.
Then through the vertical shaft dedicated to the track, rising to the 8th floor above the ground.
An Jun and the other person arrived at the work place assigned to them this time, a temporary transit warehouse.
"We are lucky this time."
"The industrial mechas assigned to us are all new products that have just been put into service."
Zheng Mingzhe raised his wrist and checked the task log through the bracelet.
Then, with the help of the above prompts, he found two Hercules-type industrial mechas that had just entered the standby state.
Hercules-type industrial mechas.
It is also a new type of equipment that has only begun to be popularized in the shelter in the past month.
It is said that its birth is related to a newly discovered wear-resistant material.
The mecha is 3.8 meters high.
The driving mode is similar to wearing exoskeleton armor.
The whole person is directly embedded in the mecha, and then operated through the body's limbs.
However, since it is a mass-produced indoor industrial mecha.
There is no special protection design.
About half of the driver's body will be exposed.
Basically, it can only work inside the shelter and cannot be applied to the outside world.
With the help of a lifting platform.
After leaning into the industrial mecha,
a row of jumping data immediately appeared in An Jun's field of vision.
Those were the various real-time attribute parameters of the industrial mecha.
An Jun took a quick glance and
noticed that the energy reserve displayed on it was 100%, and it was also within the range of wireless charging.
This means that this industrial mecha has almost unlimited power within the current scene range.
It can be used without any scruples.
He raised his legs slightly.
The huge industrial mecha moved with it.
With a thud, he took a step on the ground.
"I'm going to work first."
He greeted Zheng Mingzhe who was still adapting next to him.
An Jun controlled the industrial mecha and walked towards the warehouse.
It's not that he didn't want to wait for his friend.
But the industrial mecha is a controlled item.
Once he got on, it was equivalent to entering a timing state.
During this period,
his efficiency in completing all labor tasks will be scored.
If the score is too low,
he will not be able to drive the industrial mecha next time he works.
Instead, he will be downgraded and assigned an exoskeleton armor with lower performance.
On the contrary, if the score is excellent.
The next mission assigned to him is likely to be an industrial mecha that can be remotely controlled.
Not only is it safer,
but it can also more easily earn more labor credits.
As soon as he entered the warehouse,
an industrial mecha painted in ice blue came into An Jun's sight.
It ran towards the outside with two standard containers in its arms.
An Jun was startled and subconsciously wanted to move aside.
However, the Hercules-type industrial mecha he was operating had just made a gesture to adjust its direction.
Before he could take a step,
the oncoming blue mecha had already lightly bypassed the position where he was standing.
It continued to sprint out without slowing down.
Both of them were industrial mechas.
The difference in reaction speed between the two sides was extremely sharp at this moment.
A few seconds later,
the shouting of friends who were still outside rang out in An Jun's communication channel.
"Fuck, a mecha with such a fast speed just ran out."
"Is it a special model directly under artificial intelligence?"
The words were full of exclamation of having gained knowledge.
"You're overthinking. That person is Jiang Yunxia from our school."
An Jun shook his head and recognized the other person's identity.
I didn't have a particularly intuitive feeling before.
I just knew that the other person was the top student in their school and was very beautiful.
Now doing the same job, I can immediately feel the desperate gap between the two.
I am still driving a Hercules-type industrial mecha that can only be driven by myself.
Jiang Yunxia already has a customized industrial mecha that can be remotely operated and is exclusive to her.
With super high labor efficiency and remuneration, she is about to complete three years of labor credits in just two or three months of enrollment. She
is so outstanding that it almost makes people suspect that they are different species.
"Is it the school beauty you mentioned before?"
"Why don't you try to chase her."
Zheng Mingzhe became interested when talking about a girl of the same age.
"It's too late."
