Mobile City Farming Guide

Chapter 6 Survivor Town

Not only Li Ye, but also Lao Zhou and the others standing next to him instantly became excited.

A level 1 weapon, and it's even an assault rifle! With it, Tomorrow's armed forces will be greatly enhanced, and it will no longer be as passive as before when fighting level 1 monsters.

Even after the transaction was completed, Li Ye was still in a daze.

He never expected that two boxes of candles could be exchanged for such good things.

Then, he looked at the large and small bags on the kobold's body and couldn't help but think about it.

These monster merchants have so many good things on them. If I could just snatch them all from them in one go, wouldn't I be rich?
But upon seeing the kobold cavalrymen guarding the area, he quickly dismissed the idea.

There were two to three hundred of these kobold cavalrymen, many of whom were elites, and the cavalry commander leading them was an elite captain.

The level 1 repeating crossbow, level 1 lance, level 1 rifle, and level 1 portable rocket launcher—these weapons sent chills down Li Ye's spine.

"Never mind," he sighed.

As he was leaving, Li Ye seemed to remember something and turned to look at the kobold merchants.

"May I bring candles to trade with you again in the future?" he asked tentatively.

The kobold merchants shook their heads, and one of them held up a finger to him and shook it slightly.

Li Ye understood its meaning.

Only one transaction can be performed.

The more candles you give, the better the rewards you'll receive.

Looking at the design drawings in his hand, Li Ye couldn't help but nod slightly.

Opportunities like the Monster Caravan are truly rare and hard to come by. You not only need to know when and where it appears, but also the tricks of the trade; most people can't do that.

After the design drawings were submitted, the production workshop immediately began working on the Falcon assault rifle project.

Li Ye was initially very excited, but he couldn't help but feel a pang of regret after seeing the crafting cost section.

Crafting a Falcon assault rifle requires 50 units of level 1 iron ore, which is far too expensive.

Upgrading a city's propulsion tracks only requires 100 units of iron ore.

That being said, once the Falcon assault rifle was produced, Li Ye immediately picked it up with great delight and examined it with great affection.

Once the Falcon Assault Rifle project is unlocked, its ammunition will also be unlocked in the production workshop; 1 unit of iron ore can produce 15 bullets.

Li Ye spent 350 iron ore to forge 5 Falcon assault rifles and 1500 rounds of ammunition.

Looking at the guns and piles of bullets in front of him, he felt much safer.

This is a level 1 weapon, and an assault rifle at that. It must be incredibly powerful against level 1 monsters.

With it, I won't be so passive when facing hordes of zombies anymore.

Then, looking at the remaining less than 50 units of iron ore, he couldn't help but frown again.

This resource is really useful, but it's too expensive to use.

"Where do we go next, Ali?" Old Zhou asked.

After thinking for a while, Li Ye pointed in a direction.

"We're heading due west."

A few hours later.

On the watchtower, Li Ye slowly picked up the binoculars.

On the distant horizon, a small town came into view.

That was his destination, Wilderness Town. At this moment, many people in Wilderness Town had already been awakened by the movement of the Tomorrow.

Upon discovering a moving city heading towards them, some were astonished, some were filled with doubt, and others were terrified.

After all, in the wasteland, Wilderness Town is a small town without heavy machine guns, artillery, or even a strong fence.
It belongs to the bottom of the food chain.

"They probably think I'm here to rob them," Li Ye thought to himself.

He casually put down his binoculars, instructed the lookout beside him to continue observing the town's movements, and then walked down from the watchtower.

According to the plan for leaving the field, Tang Fang remained on standby in the cockpit, the lookout continued to keep watch, and several other crew members remained on board the Tomorrow to provide heavy machine gun support in case of emergencies.

Li Ye deliberately left one person by the cannon. Although the shells had run out, the people of Yuanye Town didn't know that, and they could still bluff.

The rest of the people were tasked with heading to Yuanye Town with him.

As the Tomorrow came to a stop, Li Ye and the others slowly descended to the ground via an elevator platform. The people of Yuanye Town peeked out from their windows and doorways, curiously observing them.

While walking, Lao Zhou also took the opportunity to protect Li Ye behind him.

Li Ye was taken aback for a moment, then chuckled softly.

He appreciated Lao Zhou's good intentions, but the intelligence system had already stated that Yuanye Town did not have artillery or guns, and posed a very low threat to them.

Moreover, they were all carrying guns.

The mayor of Yuanye Town was an old man with white hair and beard. He did not have a good impression of the arrival of Liye's group and kept his brows furrowed.

After Li Ye explained his purpose, the look of disgust on his face lessened a bit, and he sighed.

"Alright. Hopefully you can hurry and leave as soon as possible."

The market in Wilderness Town is very small, consisting of only one street, and it doesn't sell many things.

It mainly consists of farmed grains, homemade dry rations, and occasionally some old furniture and appliances, as well as resources such as iron ore, timber, and coal mined in the wild.

Li Ye briefly summarized his purpose.

First, procure supplies.

He needed to procure as much fuel and coal as possible from the town of Yuanye to replenish the Tomorrow's energy. Furthermore, he needed to purchase a batch of saltpeter. One unit of saltpeter could be processed into one unit of gunpowder in the production workshop to make artillery shells.

Then he needs to purchase some more food, since the newly planted blue-heart potatoes will take a week to mature, and the remaining food on Tomorrow is not enough to last for a week.

Second, recruit talent.

To make a mobile city function properly, at least the following types of talent need to be recruited.

The helmsman is responsible for operating the vehicle.

The gunner is responsible for calibrating the artillery's firing.

The "Mechanic" is responsible for the daily maintenance and replacement of parts in the mobile city.

The lookout is responsible for keeping watch from the watchtower and providing real-time updates on the situation in the wasteland.

The [Combat Captain] is responsible for maintaining order within the mobile city and conducting external operations.

In addition to these personnel, the crew will need to recruit at least 20 residents. These residents will be responsible for tasks such as refueling, mining resources in the wild, cleaning the Tomorrow, and cultivating the fields.

Third, gather information.

But looking around the town, Li Ye felt that his needs would be difficult to meet.

The market in Wilderness Town is only so big that it can't provide all the supplies he needs at once. And with such a small population, it's hard to find professionals like helmsmen, gunners, and mechanics, let alone recruit 20 residents.

"Sigh, we'll try to gather as many people and resources as we can," he sighed.
