Chapter 248 Northern Base
In the underground cave, Li Ge was obsessed with all kinds of mysterious patterns, and his days were not as good as in years.
He even forgot the soil of the kingdom of life that he had lost.
At this time, the situation on the ground was changing rapidly.
…
The north of the Kyushu United Nations has become the strongest fortress for the Kyushu people.
It was midday at this moment, but the sky was dimly red.
There was a burning smell in the air that made people cough.
Looking down from a high altitude, on the earth, the dead blackness and the roiling bright red are intertwined, forming a cruel picture.
In this picture, gray-black human castles are scattered at random, cold and orderly, and extremely conspicuous.
Reinforced concrete, combined with the most advanced psychic technology at present, has built one of the most prosperous bases for mankind.
In this base, various types of heavy armored vehicles drive on rarely visited streets, while people hide in various buildings and are busy with their work all the time.
In various complex factories, the production lines are non-stop, and the sound of machinery running is regular and reassuring.
One after another, bizarre weapons were produced from the production line and then taken over by humans.
Those people used a rather retro method to carve complex lines on the weapons.
In the city, one can also hear the loud sounds of fighting and noise, and those sounds come from the edge of the city.
At the very edge of the city, there is a hundred-meter-high city wall.
On the city wall, there is the latest psychic technology belonging to mankind.
Various mysterious lines are engraved on it. Whenever the runes flash, transparent energy ripples spread outward, pushing the attacking monsters back several ten meters.
At the same time, various metal aircraft were hovering and patrolling in the sky, and from time to time they would drop bombs in places where monsters gathered, creating rumbling explosions and fire.
In the very center of the city, a hundred meters deep underground, is the central control room of the entire city, where the best warriors from Kyushu officials gather.
Now, each of them wears a helmet-shaped instrument on their head, sitting quietly and comfortably in a soft and exclusive cabin.
Suddenly, a soldier suddenly twitched, and an emergency alarm sounded in his exclusive cabin.
"Warning! Warning! Your mental strength has dropped to the warning level, please take a rest in time.
"Next to him, someone immediately stepped forward to help the man up and leave the exclusive cabin.
The next second, another person sat in and took over the drone controlled by his mental power.
Seamless handoff.
Slightly closer to the ground is the central command room of the entire city.
Now, there is a solitary person sitting in the central command room.
He was wearing a suit and leather tie, sitting upright, as if waiting for something.
Suddenly, several blurry lights and shadows appeared around him.
Then, the light and shadow become clear during the adjustment.
It turned out to be the projection of several humans.
These people were also wearing suits and ties and had serious faces.
"Report the situation." The person projected on the seat said in a deep voice.
"Wenzhou, repelled two beast tides, the damage rate is 0.43%, and the ammunition inventory is 46%. It is expected to be replenished within three days."
"Sanjiang City has repelled 4 animal waves, with a damage rate of 24.2% and ammunition inventory of 8%. The current production equipment is damaged and the A4356 ammunition production line has been stopped and is in urgent need of replenishment."
"Ningze City..."
It turns out that those gathered here today are all the principals of the cities in the north.
They are all from Kyushu officials and are city managers officially appointed by Kyushu leaders.
Nowadays, the environment is becoming more and more cruel, and the monsters are desperately expanding outward for their own survival.
Human bases, full of fresh blood and various resources, have become their best choice for attack.
In recent days, amid the fires that have burned across the world, various human bases have experienced the baptism of beast tides again and again. Countless people have been destroyed, while the survivors have become stronger and stronger.
The cities in the north are currently directly controlled by the Kyushu official, so they have the highest technological level, the deepest industrial foundation, and the relatively highest political cohesion.
Therefore, these cities will hold regular meetings to exchange information and negotiate common development strategies or defense strategies.
It is precisely because of this that in the north, where strong monsters and monsters emerge one after another, the human forces have been able to fight steadily, and there is almost no complete loss of ground.
Nowadays, the human city is unexpectedly experiencing waves of beasts, not shrinking but expanding, connecting bit by bit.
After the directors of each city had reported on the current status of the city and discussed the next allocation of resources, they began to discuss today's most important issue.
——Running out of ammunition and food.
"Currently, there are two most pressing problems we face. First, there is a shortage of combat readiness resources. Second, it is a food shortage."
"At the current consumption rate, we will run out of ammunition in six months, and we will run out of food in eight months."
"Therefore, in addition to resisting the beast tide, we need to advance the exploration and excavation technology of psychic resources as soon as possible. In addition, we also need to continuously improve crops..."
"There seems to be a large amount of psychic metal in Qingzhou City," one person said.
His words immediately attracted everyone's attention. Oops
"Psychic metal? Please make a detailed report."
"Currently, the sample has been tested. The metal does not require any additional processing and is already extremely compatible with psychic energy."
"If this metal can be used in weapons manufacturing, the step of manually engraving inscriptions can be omitted, greatly increasing weapon production capacity."
"If the manual seal-carving process is retained, the weapon's maneuverability and power will be greatly improved."
"Do we have our own psychic metal mine?" the person in charge asked.
"No veins of this type of ore have been detected so far, and Qingzhou City is the only producer."
"Moreover, according to General Su's report, the ore was not mined locally in Qingzhou City, but was provided by a human named 'Li Ge'."
"This young man named Li Ge is very important. Send someone to contact him."
"According to General Su's report, this person seems to be present on Wuhang Mountain."
Immediately someone raised objections.
"Wuxing Mountain...the straight-line distance is not long, but it is currently on the border of Kyushu and there are many uncontrollable factors."
Someone retorted: "But I think it's worth a try. According to General Su's report, not only is Li Ge in Wuhang Mountain, Wuhang Mountain itself also has something extremely special."
The person continued to explain: "Not only are there no fires on the mountain, but there is also mist, and the farmland soil is moist. The crops there are suspiciously like wheat, but they can grow to nearly a person's height."
"Yes, I have also read the relevant report. The report also said that based on conversations with farmers, the maturity period of the crop is about two months."
"And earth temples can be found everywhere on the mountain, and they can produce an extremely rare spiritual liquid that shortens the maturity period of the crop to one month."
The boss above spoke.
"In this case, we must send a team to Wuhang Mountain, and it needs to be a strategic move!"
"If this trip goes well, perhaps there will be a way to temporarily postpone or even permanently solve the problem of running out of ammunition and food."
Suddenly, someone seemed to remember something.
"Li Ge is a powerful person in Qingzhou City? Qingzhou City... seems to be affiliated with the Shensheng Biological Group?"
"No, according to the report, Shensheng Biological Group seems to have withdrawn from the management of Qingzhou City, and the current person in charge is... Zhou Yuan."
The respondent continued: "Zhou Yuan, female, 23 years old. Since most of the databases in Jiuzhou City have been destroyed, there is very little information about this woman."
"We can only know that the woman fled to Qingzhou City 8 months ago and has been working as a female worker in Xiacheng District, Qingzhou City."
"There is also important information. There are many City God temples in Qingzhou City, and the names in the City God temples have the same name as Zhou Yuan. The two are suspected to be related."
This information sparked a lot of discussion.
A few days ago, relevant research materials on the power of faith and the merits and evils have been distributed to various places.
For this extremely important information, you have already studied it thoroughly.
Faith is the way to create gods.
"Haha... Are you creating a god? A good god or an evil god?"
"Judging from his actions, he mostly accumulates merit and seems to be a good deity."
"If you are a good god... you can try to contact him."
"The last topic."
"Facing more and more frequent monster attacks, in addition to more high-end technology and various high-end weapons, we also need humans with high-precision combat capabilities!"
"Using the power of faith to improve combat effectiveness is obviously faster than practicing on your own."
"So, our issue is."
"Are we going to...create gods?"
…
Inside the cave, Li Ge worked day and night in the darkness, studying the crazy traces on the stone wall.
Hu Da followed Li Ge and originally wanted to try to describe it. Unexpectedly, as soon as he started writing, an extremely bad premonition suddenly arose.
This kind of premonition has saved Huda's life countless times, and it is a talent brought by his divination qualifications.
He stopped writing immediately, but even so, he was still frightened.
"Maybe it's a curse left by some evil spirit."
Huda guessed like this, becoming more and more certain in his heart.
Therefore, when he saw Li Ge studying the traces on the stone wall endlessly, he always had a malicious expectation in his heart.
——Invest a little, then invest a little more. Let me see when you finish!
Finally, the moment came.
…
At this moment, Wu Fan had already left here out of boredom, maybe exploring around, maybe practicing in a secluded place.
As for Li Ge, he once again tried to gather his spiritual energy to depict the traces of madness.
Suddenly, Huda noticed something was wrong.
Li Ge's breathing became extremely heavy and rapid.
Huda quietly moved his position and peeked his head from behind Li Ge. At a glance, he saw a faint fluorescent symbol condensed on Li Ge's trembling fingertips.
Huda turned his gaze to Li Ge's face again.
At this time, Li Ge clenched his teeth, his face was ferocious, and his eyes were empty but staring ahead.
