Ten thousand I am across the heavens

Chapter 741 Life in the wasteland from scratch
On the devastated land.The once tall buildings were crumbling on the ground. In the previous tsunami, they collapsed and shattered, and fragments of reinforced concrete could be seen everywhere. In such ruins, there was a huge purple machine.He was squatting there, carefully clearing out the ruins, and placed pieces of the ruins on the open ground next to him.

In this way, the collapsed rooms were cleared out layer by layer, and the materials that were pressed under the building, and the buried underground warehouses were also cleared out bit by bit.

The one in charge of cleaning up the building is naturally the No. 2 machine. It used to be a huge machine to fight against the apostles, but now it has become their largest and most exaggerated construction machine. , you can keep working.

Ikari Shinji moved carefully, for fear that he would accidentally collapse the building, causing Asuka and Lano who were cleaning up supplies in the ruins to be buried underneath.

With such a behemoth, the cleaning of materials has become much easier, and the terrain here can roughly determine where this place was originally.

The city where the three are located is actually the original Third New Tokyo. As one of the most important headquarters of Nerv, it is also the place where the Black Moon is buried. It used to be one of the most developed industrial cities of mankind.

In addition to food and fuel, there is also a large amount of supply equipment here. The equipment in the factories on the surface may have been damaged a lot, but many factories built in underground bunkers escaped the tsunami, although the power facilities have been completely destroyed. Destroyed, but most of the equipment inside is well preserved.

"Look at what I found? A complete electric kettle refining furnace. This is quite a convenient smelting equipment. Most of the minerals can be smelted into the corresponding alloy by simply throwing in the corresponding parameters. The only drawback is It’s just that this thing consumes too much electricity, and we have to find a way to restart an underground power plant for him.” Lan Nuo wound the steel cables one by one around the arc refining furnace, and then made the first machine like fishing, and put the equipment from Pulled up from deep underground.

"Didn't we collect a lot of cables? Let's use steel bars to weld a large bicycle to No. [-] machine, and let him ride the bicycle to generate electricity! This will save you the need to find another complete power plant." thinking.

"It doesn't seem to be impossible. If the mountain is used as the foundation, it seems possible to let the No. [-] machine generate electricity manually, but we may have to find the peripherals of the No. [-] machine. Welding such a big bicycle, relying on the two of us Power can't do it."

The words of the two have been transmitted to Ikari Shinji through the communicator, and his face immediately turned pale: "Don't! I have to be responsible for excavating other ruins! I can't generate electricity all the time! EVA is nerve conduction, I will Those who were exhausted to death on it!"

"Just to put it bluntly, we must find a normal power station. The hand-operated generator set can only be said to be a backup solution." Lan Nuo was quickly cleaning up the materials in the ruins. There are still many equipment in the factory It is intact, but the underground building is already crumbling. They must be cleared out as soon as possible to ensure that these materials will not be wasted.

With the help of the No. [-] machine, the range of activities of the three of them was significantly larger, and the materials they collected were much more abundant than before. It was not only food and clothing, but also some well-preserved items that did not survive the tsunami. After simple repairs, five or six of the vehicles destroyed in the accident could be driven directly.

After the current round of supplies is collected, it will be dark, and the three of them will drive along the coastline after dinner, looking for other survivors who may wake up from the ocean.

This has been No. 11 days since they woke up, and no other survivors have been found before this, but Ikari Shinji believes that sooner or later someone else will wake up.

The three chose to act at night. An important reason is that if someone wakes up from the ocean, they should light bonfires at night for lighting and heating. These bonfires will be very conspicuous at night. Human civilization has been lost. Only the remaining lights were shining.

Originally, the group didn't have much hope, they just drove along a coastal road. The road has been twisted and uneven by the tsunami. If it wasn't for the three people's choice of a leather car with a high chassis, I'm afraid it would be difficult. Go forward on such a street.

The night was getting darker, and when the two children were dozing off, there were flickering bright spots in the distant jungle. The flickering, formal bonfire flames meant that there were other survivors in that direction.

The two children who were already drowsy, saw the scene outside the car window, and immediately regained their energy: "There are really survivors, hurry up! Find our food and water, they must be starving!" Ikari Shinji flipped excitedly in the back row.

Asuka slapped him on the head: "If you are looking for food and water, find the gun first!"

"Huh?" Ikari Shinji didn't know why.

Lan Nuo nodded and said: "Go and find the guns, one for each person, put on the bulletproof vests and bulletproof helmets we collected, don't think too much about other people, although we are all degenerates, but The other party may not have good intentions towards us, but may covet our car, our food and water.

As long as those who can wake up from the ocean are not stupid, they will soon discover that there is a mass extinction on the earth, and thus realize that food and fresh water are limited, especially food, eat less.

On a certain level, each of us is a competitor to each other, carve up the little food left by human beings, and be careful in everything. "

Ikari Shinji was poured cold water on his head, but he calmed down quickly, realizing that he hadn't thought carefully just now, even if civilization has not been lost, he shouldn't be so careless when facing strangers Heart.

The three of them put on their bulletproof vests and took up their firearms, then turned and drove in the direction of the flames.The light from the headlights illuminated the camp of survivors beside the bonfire. There were not just one or two survivors, but dozens of them.

Facing the approaching vehicles, there was a burst of shouting and harmony in the camp. Several people were holding guns, and more people were holding simple improvised spears. coming car.

Without the No. [-] machine, it is obviously impossible for them to collect supplies as efficiently as the three of them. It can be seen from their complexions that they may not have eaten for a few days.

Lan Nuo took a closer look at the guns in their hands. The quality of the guns can be judged by the slight acceleration of the guns. According to the estimation based on the quality, most of the guns here are cheap, with only one or two bullets in them.

Seeing that the three people who got off the car were all human beings, the survivors in the camp heaved a sigh of relief. The leader among them raised his hand, and the few with guns in their hands lowered their muzzles.

Only then did Ikari Shinji realize that if the three of them had no weapons in their hands, what kind of embarrassing situation might they face at this time?
As the representative of the three, Lan Nuo took the lead to negotiate with the other party.

"I finally met a living person. How long have you been awake?" Lan Nuo asked.

The leader of the camp is a middle-aged man in his 40s. Hearing this, he sighed: "It's been a week since we woke up, and I was the first one to wake up among these people. Others woke up one after another. There seems to be some special place on this coast, people who wake up usually come from there, and we don't know why.

To be honest, many people would rather not wake up, you should have found out, right?The animals and plants on the earth are all extinct. These days, we haven’t found much edible food in the ruins of the city, but more and more people are waking up. How about your side? Will it last? "

……

The two sides exchanged the situation of each other's camps. The middle-aged leader was named Joey, and his hometown should be in the United States. I didn't think about why he was reborn in Japan. The people in the camp also came from all over the world, and there seemed to be no pattern. Come.

After Joey learned that Lan Nuo not only had a lot of food and water, but had even begun to collect industrial facilities, preparing to restore power and the most basic industries, Joey immediately showed an incredulous expression.

"How did you do it in such a short time?" Others couldn't help but gathered around and asked enthusiastically. Ikari Shinji and Asuka took out the food and water they had prepared before from the car. Seeing everyone gobbling it up and hearing the thanks, the emotions in my heart were complicated and difficult to understand.

Lan Nuo glanced at Ikari Shinji, and finally pointed at him: "We can collect supplies so quickly, and we need the help of this child. You may not recognize him. He is the pilot of the first machine. In the danger of narrowly dying, salvaging the first aircraft from the sea and restoring the control of the aircraft, we can collect so many materials in a short period of time.”

For a moment, everyone looked at Ikari Shinji, which made him a little at a loss. He was not good at dealing with such lively occasions, and it was even more difficult to adapt, becoming the focus of everyone's eyes.

The way Joey looked at him was also very complicated. In the final analysis, the third shock was caused by Unit 14, that is, Shinji Ikari. On a certain level, all the disasters that everyone faced, the disasters in the end, were caused by this Caused by a [-]-year-old child.

If he ran into this child by accident, instead of trying to use the supplies he brought in his adventures like now, he might spit in his face, or even do something more outrageous.

But looking at the tired look on the thin boy's face, he still shook his head: "Thank you, please take care of me in the future."

The mentality of other people is actually similar. If Ikari Shinji is the kind of child who has no sense of responsibility, after causing a huge disaster to the world, he doesn't want to make up for it, but only knows to escape from reality, and even becomes a survivor in the camp of other survivors. parasites, then they will definitely treat this boy very cruelly.

But now seeing him trying hard to restore the disaster he caused, and thinking that the third shock was not entirely his fault, many people couldn't hate him anymore, and even felt a little pitiful for this child.

A mother who once had a child of a similar age even stepped forward, hugged Shinji Ikari, and gently stroked his head: "My child, you have worked hard! I can't blame you for all this!"

Asuka looked at the picture in front of her, a trance appeared in her eyes, she also longed for the same care, her mother used to be his biggest psychological shadow, even though she had awakened in the final battle, the regret in her heart was still there. Not made up.

"What are you thinking about? Are you missing your mother?" Lan Nuo suddenly appeared beside Asuka, startling the girl.

"No! No! Only an idiot like Shinji would still miss his mother at such an old age!"

"Well! There's nothing to be embarrassed about. Now everyone has become part of the red ocean. Maybe your mother's soul is in this ocean. Maybe she can really return." Lan Nuo didn't tell the truth, It is almost impossible for Asuka's mother to come back. The most important point is that Asuka and Rei Ayanami are actually clones, and the Asuka next to her is not even her own body.

After a brief negotiation, Joey decided to take his own people to the camp set up by Lan Nuo, and at the same time leave a small number of people here to garrison those who just woke up from the sea, so that they would not get lost.

A few people who can drive followed Lan Nuo and the others, and returned to the camp first. The huge No. [-] machine half kneeling beside the camp made them feel shocked. There are still very few opportunities for huge mechas, and it is really exciting to get such an opportunity.

Fortunately, they went up to touch it at most, and didn't forget the business. They drove a few cars that were still in good condition, and packed and transported the personnel and supplies from their original camp.

And as the number of people in the camp gradually increased, the camp where the three people seemed a bit lonely at first began to become lively. More supplies were sorted out by categories, and people who could drive drove vehicles to search everywhere along the coastline. Can bring back newcomers.

Everything seemed to be moving in a good direction, until one afternoon on the No. 20th day after the three of them woke up, Ikari Shinji, who had finished cleaning up the ruins for a day, and the exploration team, went all the way north along the coastline...

Not all survivors have the chance to survive after waking up. Finding food and water in the ruins of the city requires a wealth of survival experience, as well as considerable luck. It has passed since the third shock For more than 20 days, those who were less lucky also started one after another, and some people ushered in the end of their lives.
