Mobile City Farming Guide

Chapter 99 "To His Majesty the Emperor"

“I had already recruited 60 people, but due to the sudden outbreak of the zombie horde, I had no choice but to bring in the more than 240 people who were to be interviewed.”

Lin Wu explained.

Li Ye nodded.

In this way, Tomorrow has effectively "recruited" more than 300 people, more than double the previous target.

However, this isn't necessarily bad news.

The food on the Tomorrow is enough to feed these people, and there is also a severe shortage of manpower.

"Call Lao Zhou, and also call a group of armed combat personnel to maintain order."

He patted Lin Wu on the shoulder.

"You are responsible for explaining the rules of the Tomorrow to them, and letting these people decide for themselves whether to stay or leave."

"After that, we registered each of their information, arranged accommodations, and distributed furniture, food, and fresh water."

"Also, tell Lao Zhou to select another 100 residents and train them to be combat personnel."

Moreover, the Engineer and Iron Whale also had a number of survivors who had taken temporary refuge, totaling more than a hundred on each.

Like Tomorrow, they also need to gradually integrate and assimilate these people.

After Lin Wu nodded, he walked towards the production workshop.

“Now, it’s time to build a new batch of guys,” he muttered to himself.

But what Li Ye didn't know was that two important things were happening at that very moment.

The first thing that happened was that most of the survivors, convoys, and mobile cities that escaped from the fortress chose to leave the Night Zone and return to the Wasteland or Basin. Everyone was already feeling the pressure of developing in the Night Zone, and now that the safe haven was gone, the pressure had reached its peak, so they decided to leave.

Although being a speculator can earn a lot, you still need to be alive to spend it.

However, there are three exceptions.

These are the three level 2 cities belonging to the Apocalypse Cult.

The person in charge of leading these three city lords was a low-ranking bishop named Wilson within the sect.

At this moment, the bishop is issuing orders to the lord of his city.

"Use the flute to inform the other two lords that everything will proceed as planned." He spoke slowly. "Although our forces are weak, we must still complete the mission!"

Everyone present nodded in agreement.

One of the discipline officers hesitated for a moment before speaking hesitantly.

"Lord Wilson, can we really do it?"

Wilson responded coldly to this.

"It must be done."

The second matter concerns that level 2 fortress.

In the fallen level 2 fortress, the zombie mobile cities came to a stop one by one.

As the zombie commander inserted his arm into the jack in the cockpit, several melodious and rhythmic whistles sounded, and the horde of zombies that had been raging in the fortress immediately quieted down.

Immediately afterwards, a mobile zombie city slowly began to operate.

Unlike its companions, this zombie mobile city is equipped with a large number of robotic arms, working claws and cranes on its deck, and it also seems to be an engineering city.

Upon closer inspection, these devices appear to be wriggling.

Centered on this zombie city, waves of flesh and blood spread out, beginning to transform the streets and buildings along the way.

The entire level 2 fortress began to evolve into a hybrid of flesh and machine.

Accompanied by the sound of a siren, the zombies began their "work." Soon after, a level 2 zombie fortress, modified with flesh and blood technology, appeared.

The zombie commander nodded slightly upon seeing this, extremely satisfied.

He waved to his deputy and spoke in a hoarse, low voice.

The sound was inevitably obscure and extremely difficult to discern.

But the translation is
"A letter to His Majesty the Emperor: His loyal Crimson Baron has successfully captured the human fortress in the Deadwood. It has been transformed into a bridgehead for our attack on the new area."

Li Ye slowly picked up a list in the production workshop. The list contained the quantity of level 2 iron ore that Lin Wu had just given him.

Currently, Tomorrow has a total of over 1000 units of level 2 iron ore.

Considering that Lin Wu is already very busy as the deputy, it wouldn't be good to keep asking him to take inventory of the warehouse supplies, so Li Ye decided to select a few warehouse managers from the Tomorrow Ship.

As for the compensation, it will be calculated according to the T6 level.

These Tier 2 iron ore deposits will be prioritized for upgrading the combat capabilities of the Tomorrow.

After all, the Iron Whale, as a member of the alliance, is a defensive city, while the Engineer is an engineering city. The task of fighting external forces and protecting them naturally falls to the Tomorrow.

This is why Tomorrow can enjoy so many Tier 2 iron ore first—but in practice, this batch of iron ore is still not enough.

After spending 400 units of level 2 iron ore, I built two more Blood Rippers.

It has to be said that its "+30% damage to non-building and vehicle targets" feature is extremely useful against zombies.

Following that, Li Ye spent another 300 units of level 2 iron ore to build six Burner Flamethrowers. Since the Engineer could process them, its fuel supply would be endless.

These level 2 flamethrowers are extremely useful, whether for dealing with zombies invading the deck or for attacking zombie-held resource points in external combat.

Not only for Tomorrow itself, but also for the Engineer, which plans to build another batch.

After all, the Iron Whale can defend against zombie invasions by assembling the city's armor, but the Engineer cannot.

As for the remaining 348 units of iron ore, Li Ye plans to build a Black Hawk helicopter.

Building a Black Hawk helicopter requires 200 units of Tier 2 Iron Ore and 50 units of Tier 2 Precision Flight Vehicle Parts.

When any type of vehicle design drawing is entered into the production workshop, its corresponding vehicle accessories will be automatically unlocked.

打造1单位2级精密飞行载具配件需要消耗1单位2级铁矿，1单位铜矿。

A helicopter contains a total of 250 units of level 2 iron ore and 50 units of copper ore.

Compared to artillery and heavy machine guns, assembling the Black Hawk helicopter takes longer. A Tier 2 production workshop is sufficient to handle the production of ordinary vehicles.

However, for vehicles like destroyers, a higher-level and larger production facility is required.

After a long time, a brand new Black Hawk helicopter was finally produced.

The streamlined design with a rectangular cross-section, sharp angles on the fuselage, tilted rotor boom, cross-shaped tail rotor, sliding hatch and tail door combination, and upward-facing engine exhaust outlets are all features of this aircraft.
These eye-catching designs are truly remarkable.

Even Lao Zhou and his friends, who were just watching out of curiosity, were so captivated by it that they couldn't wait to hop on and take a ride.

Li Ye briefly looked at the basic performance parameters of the Black Hawk helicopter.

It can accommodate 2 pilots and 11-14 fully armed personnel, with a maximum speed of approximately 357 km/h.

Without aerial refueling, its range is approximately 600 kilometers, but if equipped with auxiliary fuel tanks, this range can be extended to 2200 kilometers.

It is equipped with two mini-guns mounted on either side of its wings and Hellfire missile launchers, making it a veritable aerial version of the Storm infantry fighting vehicle.

The bullets needed for machine guns and the missiles needed for launching devices both require iron ore and gunpowder to manufacture.

"This performance is really impressive!" Li Ye exclaimed.

Compared to that goblin helicopter that flew crookedly, it was a complete upgrade.
