Armor-piercing bullets don't believe in carbon-based monsters

Chapter 245 Flaw
The reason why Chen Jian wanted the Ring Chamber of Commerce to find rocket fuel instead of doing it himself was because this job was too thankless.

In fact, rocket fuel is not as simple as it seems.

Although in his time, videos of a genius elementary school student rubbing plum candies with his hands often became popular on certain short video websites, the difference between that stuff and real solid fuel was almost the same as the difference between saltpeter and RDX scraped from the wall next to a toilet.

If the preparation speed is not taken into consideration, a liquid-fuel rocket is many times more stable and durable than a solid-fuel rocket.

Chen Jian was very suspicious as to why he found a solid-fuel rocket. It might also be because the Rocket Force had some reservations when making the decision.

After all, no one is omniscient and omnipotent when faced with the situation at the time.

As a decision-maker of a strategic force, no matter what decision you make, the first thing you consider is "where is the enemy?"

Although the catastrophe occurred very strangely and is completely inexplicable, who can guarantee that this was not a premeditated attack?

The decision-making time is only 5 hours. In that situation, even if the world recovers strangely, decision makers have to treat it as an ultra-high-intensity surprise war.

This is probably the reason why solid rockets were chosen.

They don't know how long it will take for the sealed items to be opened. If the time is short, solid rockets are the best choice.

If it takes a long time, it will be almost impossible to use strategic missiles.

Considering the two trade-offs, storing solid rockets is the more conservative approach.
-
Of course, it cannot be denied that there may be other liquid rockets preserved in the same way in other bases, but Chen Jian would not make such a assumption until they are found.

Just send the task to the Ring Chamber of Commerce.

If you can find it, look for it. If you can't find it,
Let Fuxi mobilize all the equipment and rub it out by hand.

So on the next day, after Chen Jian sent away the merchants from the Jiangnan Chamber of Commerce, he immediately "summoned" Wang Lizi, who happened to be in Jinling.

By the time the latter rushed all the way to Base 011, it was already past two in the afternoon.

At this time, Chen Jian was discussing the design and construction methods of a first-line defense fortress with Fuxi. Wang Lizi was standing in the distance waiting, with his expression completely devoid of his previous rebellious attitude.

After Chen Jian decided on the plan and walked towards him, he went to Chen Jian and said respectfully:
"Mr. Chen, I'm here."

"I see it."

Chen Jian asked Wang Lizi to sit down at the small table outside the main passage. The ant colony robot came over to pour tea for the two of them. Chen Jian took a sip and asked casually:
"How are you doing lately? Where did you make your fortune?"

"Get rich."

Wang Lizi smiled awkwardly and replied:
"The recent events in Huadu did make us a small fortune, but all of this money has been invested in the next phase of the plan."

"We are currently excavating the ruins of Chang'an, trying to find clues to the truth behind the beast tide."

"Oh?"

Chen Jian asked in surprise:

"Why do you care about the beast tide? Aren't you going to look for your ring?"

"I thought you would continue to follow up on the clues in Luzhou."

"It's not necessary anymore."

Wang Lizi sighed and said:

"The leader told us that the mystery of the Fuxi project has most likely been solved by you."

"You just don't think it's appropriate or necessary to share that information with us."

"So, we don't need to keep searching."

"We are allies. Although our ultimate goals are different, we should help each other anyway."

"And now, finding clues related to the beast tide is to help you."

What?
When did the Ring Chamber of Commerce become so sensible?

Chen Jian looked at Wang Lizi in front of him in confusion, as if he was meeting this person for the first time.

The latter looked him straight in the eyes without any hesitation, with a frank look in his eyes.

"Don't think I'm lying. In fact, this is just a choice that maximizes benefits."

"clear."

Chen Jian nodded, and then asked:

"Have you found any clues?"

"There is no meaningful information at this time, but we did find some clues."

"We found some monster bones in Chang'an. The bones belong to monsters that only appear in the south."

"The monsters traveled thousands of kilometers to Chang'an. This proves that they must be controlled by some force."

"We already know that."

Chen Jian thought for a moment, then continued:
"We will provide you with some equipment related to the clues, and you can continue to trace them down along this clue." "But before that, I need you to help me do something else."

"Please say."

Wang Lizi said without hesitation:

"We will try our best."

"I need you to find me some rocket fuel."

"You know what a rocket is, right?"

"know."

Wang Lizi nodded and then replied:

"We have dismantled some rockets before, and some parts and fuel are stored in the first-level controlled materials."

"But because of the poor state of preservation, all that stuff was unusable - the fuel wouldn't even burn."

"But if you need it, we will try to find it."

“But there’s little hope of finding it.”

"It's okay, I'll give you the exact location."

Chen Jian waved his hand and said:
"Look in those places, your chances of finding it will be much greater."

Chen Jian was not worried that giving the specific location of the Rocket Force base would bring about any uncontrollable consequences.

Nonsense, of course the Rocket Force base only has rockets. Even if they find a nuclear bomb, they don’t have the ability to use it.

It would be perfect for them to do this job.

After hearing his words, Wang Lizi decisively agreed.

The task was successfully subcontracted out, and Chen Jian immediately asked Fuxi to take out the spinal cord-connected brain-computer that Shen Yue found from the monster.

When the thing was placed in front of Wang Lizi, the puzzled look on his face clearly showed that this was the first time he had seen this thing.

"do you know?"

To be on the safe side, Chen Jian still asked a question.

"do not know."

Wang Lizi shook his head.

"Is this the device that controls those monsters? Was it found inside the monsters?"

"Correct."

As soon as Chen Jian finished speaking, Wang Lizi suddenly frowned.

"This is unreasonable."

"Humanity has hunted so many monsters before, but has never found anything like this."

"It can only have appeared in the past decade or so, or even recently."

"Or rather, this kind of thing only appears on the eve of a beast tide."
