Chapter 744: The Park in the Mist
? The construction speed has been squeezed to the limit, but it is still unknown whether at least 80% of the project progress can be completed before March. ≥ In particular, the rain shows no signs of stopping, which casts a shadow over the battle that has not yet begun.
Fifty engineering robots had just stepped off the production line of the factory in the sixth block, and were urgently dispatched by the supply airship to Yizhou Island. Not only the hired survivor laborers, but also some soldiers from the expeditionary force were put into the project.
Li Wang personally stood on the front line, supervising the progress of the construction. Although he himself knew that the spiritual comfort of doing so might be greater than the practical significance, but he did it anyway.
At this time, an adjutant came to his side.
"There were survivors making trouble in the western construction section, and they demanded a settlement of their salaries."
Li Wang said lightly without moving his eyelids.
"We said at the beginning that the salary will be released after the project is completed."
The adjutant hesitated, but still reported the truth.
"They fear the project will never be completed."
After a moment of silence, Li Wang spoke.
"Salary on March 2nd. I don't care what method you use to suppress their emotions."
"Yes!" The adjutant gave a military salute,
Absolutely no salary can be paid, Li Wang knows this very well. As for the reason, it's not because nac lacks the money, but because once they get the money, I'm afraid these people won't stay and work here, but hide in the shelter with the crystal.
Even if you ask for a salary, you have to wait until March 2nd, after the gate of Vault 79 is closed...
And at this moment, in shelter 79.
A man in a pac uniform was standing at the door, squinting at the thin-faced survivors who lined up to enter the shelter. He enjoyed this feeling very much, watching the poor man bow his head, begging for his protection, and offering his only little crystal with both hands.
Yuan Yi, the mayor of the No. 79 town, is also the director of the No. 79 shelter. Limited by the awareness of the end times, in the "history of rise and fall" of many refuges, there are very few blue skins who can in turn defeat the chaotic wasteland "refugees" and successfully establish a stable order in the refuge.
Town No. 79 is undoubtedly an exception.
Long before the doors of the refuge were opened, the director of the refuge completed the transformation of the No. 79 refuge from freedom to centralized dictatorship. With sufficient ammunition reserves, among the 2,000 shelter members, almost all males were labeled as soldiers by him.
And when the refuge was opened for the first time, his attitude towards these wasteland refugees was not assistance, but conquest.
Obviously, he succeeded.
Regardless of the extreme measures, Vault 79 has managed to survive the first year of the door opening, and has been in existence until now.
While Yuan Yi was admiring the expressions on the faces of the survivors, his subordinates came over, gave a pac old military salute, and then spoke.
"Reporting to the director, the NAC expeditionary force working on Desperate Beach still shows no signs of evacuation."
After hearing the news, Yuan Yi narrowed his eyes slightly.
Every year in the month of disaster, he can harvest tens of thousands of sub-crystals from these poor people who came to take refuge. The reason why the town of No. 79 can develop to its present scale is also based on people's fear of the disaster moon.
Unlike most survivors, as a vested interest in Calamity Moon, he doesn't really want the disaster to just disappear.
However, at this moment, it is not easy for him to do something blatantly.
The strength shown by Nac made him feel deeply afraid. Among other things, just looking at the steel airship, he knew very clearly that the strengths of the two sides were not at the same level at all.
Yuan Yi crossed his arms and thought for a moment, then a sinister smile suddenly appeared on the corner of his mouth.
"Let the survivors lurking in the labor force prepare to instigate a collective strike before February 28th in the name of asking for wages."
The subordinate's eyes lit up when he heard it, and he said immediately.
"The director is wise!"
Yuan Yi waved his hand and said with a smile.
"You tell me to go on, if this thing is done, the benefits will be indispensable to them."
"yes!"
The subordinate nodded in response, but did not leave immediately.
"Why don't you go?" Yuan Yi asked with a frown.
"There is one more thing to report." The subordinate said with his head down.
"What's up?"
"Our scouts in the Datun Mountain Natural Park discovered that someone was trying to enter the park..."
...
Today is the 26th, and there are only two days left before the Calamity Moon.
The heavy rain on Yizhou Island has slowed down, but the lingering dark clouds have turned the ghostly weather into a cloudy and rainy direction.
The muddy water was washed onto the road. Because no one repaired it for a long time, the cracked country road has become a dirty dirt road. After removing the mud two centimeters away, you can see the cement road below.
Wearing raincoats, a group of three stood at the entrance of Datun Natural Park.
Jiang Chen took off the hood on his head, and looked around. The dark forests on both sides are disturbing, but after turning on the radio life detection device, no traces of alien activities have been captured. From this point of view, this forest cannot be safer.
But this is too abnormal.
Jiang Chen couldn't help frowning slightly.
"Human beings are not the only ones who choose to take refuge in Calamity Moon. Many alien species will also hide in caves or building ruins to avoid those crabs that eat everything." Seeing the confusion in Jiang Chen's eyes, Chen Guangning explained to him.
"I see." Jiang Chen nodded.
"I said... do we really want to go up?" Looking at the road leading to Datun Natural Park, Lin Ling's face was full of timidity.
Seeing her trembling look, Jiang Chen couldn't help but smile.
This little girl is obviously a cyborg, but she is even more timid than a human.
Chen Guangning hesitated, and then said, "I have the same opinion as Ms. Lin. The mole said that there may be some bad things hidden here, so we'd better be cautious. Besides, do we really need the help of the expeditionary army?" More than a hundred people from shelter 79 were killed here, and we only have three people here. Not to mention..."
What's more, you are still; How can a large number of people move nuclear devices and materials to the present world? As for the danger, Jiang Chen wasn't very worried. As long as you put on the power armor, there is no possibility of being "insta-killed". No matter what kind of danger he encounters, he can quickly escape from here.
What's more, the pile of high technology hidden in the storage space was smashed out recklessly, and he alone has a fighting power comparable to a hundred people.
"You can just wait here. And you, Lin Ling, come up after seeing my signal."
After leaving this sentence, Jiang Chen didn't care how Chen Guangning and Lin Ling reacted, he showed the Ripper rifle under the raincoat, and walked towards the foggy mountain road alone.

(Finally finished the exam, and I failed two subjects... I drank some wine with my classmates yesterday, and I was a little dizzy. The code word reached two o'clock, and I ended up sleeping on the keyboard. Today's update is a bit late, I'm really sorry... Allow me to rest for two days, It will explode in two days.)
