The most ruthless person in the apocalypse

Chapter 1081 Inspection
"Hey, such a huge aircraft carrier, obtained without any effort, holy crap, awesome! Where can we complain about this!"

Wu Lue stood on the island superstructure, controlling drones to fly around the aircraft carrier, taking in the basic situation.

"Not a single moment of effort! Right? Damn it, didn't you see I'm exhausted!"

clap clap.

Zhang Su walked up and overheard Wu Lue's words clearly. He slapped Wu Lue on the back of the head a few times, saying, "This guy is too ridiculous."

"Ouch, ouch, hiss... Brother Su, you misspoke, why hit so hard! It's only because you won so easily that I thought it was effortless."

"Easy? Don't talk nonsense, you idiot. We've almost used up all our trump cards. You only saw the easy moments, not the whole battle!"

Zhang Su didn't think so. Only through actual combat could he better understand himself. If it weren't for the assistance of the cold energy, he would have had almost no chance of defeating the steam zombie.

Putting aside the final ice coffin funeral, the early game alone leaves you drenched in hot water. Without the protection of the cold shield, you'll be hesitant even in close combat, and ranged attacks are hopeless. In the end, you'll just lose. You won't die, but you can still escape...

If any other member of the Yama Legion were to encounter the steam zombies, the outcome would most likely be unfavorable. If we had to say who had a chance, Lu Yubo and Ju Wuying might be able to give it a shot!
Lu Yubo's self-developed "Finger Gun" has extremely strong penetrating power. As long as it can dodge the steam zombie's attack, it might be able to achieve mutual destruction.

Tachibana Mai Sakura has the advantage of her weapon; the already sharp blade, after being enchanted, might have a chance to break through the steam zombie's defenses!
"Okay, okay, I understand..."

Wu Lue rubbed his head and suddenly pointed at the screen, saying, "That ship behind us is coming, but it's veering a bit off course. I'll go and send them a beacon!"

The group of people standing on the lookout tower looked north, and only Zhang Su could see a lone cargo ship cutting through the waves on the sea. Because it was unsure of its direction, it was not moving very fast.

"Brother, why don't we tell them to turn back? We only have two ships, we can't tow an aircraft carrier. I heard that thing weighs over 100,000 tons!"

Zhao Dezhu stomped his foot, receiving a solid sensation.

"We have enough boats, but we need to repair them on the spot..."

Zhang Su looked around. From what he had observed, LK camp had left two ships behind, and Yancheng camp only planned to send one ship back.

Among the other three factions, Wild Dog Camp and the Fellowship also only sailed one ship, with many people moving supplies between the ships.

Only the Hidden Dragon Gang planned to sail the warship and cargo ship back together, leaving behind a small cargo ship.

In any case, the ships left around the aircraft carrier are enough to complete the towing task; all that's needed is to repair the propulsion system.

"You guys wait here for them to arrive, then arrange for them to help with the ship repairs! I'm going into the cabin to check. Xinyu, come on... Hey, Xiao Wang, where are you and those two foreigners?"

After saying that, Zhang Su took out a walkie-talkie and called White and McCrae's group, intending to find a guide to take him and Zheng Xinyu to visit the interior of the aircraft carrier.

Soon, the three arrived on the deck and led the leader and his wife into the aircraft carrier's cabin.

This task was a piece of cake for White and McCrae. The two were not familiar with the specifics of their other positions, but they knew the aircraft carrier's infrastructure inside and out.

The group first took a stroll around the command and control area. The captain's cabin, the operations room, the flight control room and other functional areas were relatively well preserved and there was no irreparable damage. However, the stains had not been cleaned and the area looked dirty.

"When carrying out missions, we formulate navigation plans and combat orders to ensure that important tasks such as the take-off and landing of carrier-based aircraft are all completed in these areas."

Wang Xin translated the two soldiers' words to Zhang Su.

The group then arrived at the propulsion system area, located deep inside the aircraft carrier. When Zhang Su saw the complete system of the two nuclear reactors, he recalled what he had said earlier and found it somewhat amusing.

"Damn it, I thought the reactor was like the one on Stark's chest, all small and unassuming, and I was planning to take it off and put it in the camp! Turns out it's a huge pile."

Wang Xin translated these words to White and McCrae, who then gave a very serious explanation.

"Brother Su, they said that these two reactors use the principle of nuclear fission, while the reactor you mentioned is a fission concept that is impossible to realize even after another fifty years of development."

"Fifty years?" Zhang Su said in a cryptic tone, "Our technological development is still too slow. Now, with external help, we're making rapid progress!"

Zombie technology, truly awe-inspiring! Black crystals, venomous spores, the Heart of Ice—none of them are simpler than the principles of nuclear fusion…

Instead of lingering in the reactor area, the group continued forward to another core area that propelled the aircraft carrier.

The four steam turbines, as one of the core power units, are already 40 years old, but they are still capable of providing enough thrust for the aircraft carrier as long as an engineer is responsible for starting the nuclear reactor, allowing it to sail on the ocean without fear of wind and waves!
In addition to the four main steam turbine units, there are also four emergency diesel generator units to ensure basic navigation in extreme circumstances.

The entire aircraft carrier's power comes from eight turbine steam generators, each with a power output of 8,000 kilowatts. When these generators are in operation, they can meet the electricity needs of 100,000 people. If they can be used to power the camps, not only can daily life be restored, but a large part of the industry can also be restored!

However, the reactor has now stopped working, and these turbine steam generators have also stopped working, leaving only the backup diesel generators in operation.

"No... you have diesel fuel, why not start the engine and just use it to generate electricity? Do you not like life on land?"

Zhang Su didn't understand. Nuclear reactors need engineers to maintain them, so it's understandable that they can't be started. But there are diesel generators. There's diesel fuel. They could easily start the backup diesel generators. They can't just be adrift in the middle of the strait, can they?
"White said that the aircraft carrier was docked at the port of Osaka for resupply, but the disaster broke out before it could get diesel fuel. With the original reserves on the aircraft carrier, even starting it up would be difficult."

Wang Xin shrugged helplessly.

"Ask them how much diesel fuel they would need if they were to use a diesel engine to navigate."

If the aircraft carrier could be put into operation without activating the reactor, that would be great. But after Zhang Su understood the specifics, he chuckled, pointed ahead, and gestured for them to move on to the next area.

White meant that diesel generator sets are for emergency use, and their propulsion is inherently inferior, yet their fuel consumption is very high, requiring approximately twenty tons of fuel per 100 kilometers…

Zhang Su was overwhelmed when he heard the number: 20 tons for 100 kilometers, so it would take nearly 50 tons to get back to Qincheng Port from here!

Even if the oil is pumped out from other ships, a series of problems still need to be solved. It's much simpler to just tow it!
The group then arrived at the living quarters on the aircraft carrier. The three restaurants and the hospital were very well preserved, but the living quarters were in a rather poor state, with about a third of them used to hold zombies. It would take some time to clean them up.

Fortunately, the doors to the living quarters were sturdy, and the American soldiers had taken good care of them when they were detained, so there was no chance of a riot.

The most disgusting place was the entertainment area. McCree recounted that those guys were having a party in the movie theater, having a blast, leaving all sorts of messy things scattered everywhere, it was simply an eyesore.

Although someone had already tidied up, the group didn't linger and went straight to the next place.

"Holy crap, this cold storage room is huge, what... is inside?"

When the cold storage was opened, Zhang Su was astonished by its astonishing depth. The passageway stretched for at least ten meters, with piles of food packaged in military green cardboard boxes on both sides, as high as mountains and countless.

Compared to this cold storage facility, their camp's storage facilities seem rather shabby...
