Simulation: Starting from Under One Person

After exchanging glances for a while, the two decided to return to the train and then promote how amazing Fang Rui's cooking skills were.

So even if Fang Rui doesn't become a chef, Pam will still apply to learn cooking skills.

Judging from their expressions, Fang Rui could tell that they weren't up to anything good, but he didn't say anything and instead looked at other parts of the square.

The town of Pan Yan, bathed in dim light, exuded a somewhat lively atmosphere, certainly compared to the last time…

The reason might be the aroma of the food.

The current situation in Panyan Town is terrible. The daily necessities are barely enough to keep them fed. The aroma of the food that can be smelled for hundreds of meters is probably something these people are seeing for the first time.

Fang Rui had little interest in exploring Rocky Town, so he handed the task over to Xing and Danheng.

He himself purchased Earth Essence from the Earth Fire Organization.

As an energy mineral, Fang Rui had the intention of collecting it and studying its energy properties.

The process of purchasing the ore went smoothly, and Winter City Shields were not used for the transaction; Fang Rui used daily necessities instead.

Even after the lockdown of the upper and lower zones is lifted, various daily necessities remain quite valuable in Belleburg.

On a planet covered in ice and snow, it is difficult for ordinary vegetation to survive, and there are not many of these areas in Belleberg today.

Some of them were there before, and some were greenhouses that were built later.

Having obtained what he wanted, Fang Rui began to study it, using a room provided by Natasha as a temporary research lab.

Meanwhile, Xing, Danheng, and March 7 quickly became acquainted with some people in Panyan Town and learned some information from them.

Schwaro crossed the snowfield and arrived near the Iron Guard restricted area. In the past, the Iron Guard would recycle any robots that were scrapped.

Those that could not be recovered due to certain issues were abandoned on the battlefield.

Over time, the number of abandoned robots on the battlefield became quite large.

However, the creations derived from the rift will attack the Iron Guard Forbidden Zone every once in a while, causing the robots left on the battlefield to suffer secondary damage.

Therefore, Schwarzlo could hardly find anything that could be used with simple repairs.

He felt no regret about it; he had already guessed there would be this problem when he accepted the mission.

Thanks to his foresight, he had the tools to carry out repairs and the equipment to modify robots.

While the conditions for manufacturing sophisticated robots are lacking, making some simple robots is not a problem.

He didn't expect the hastily assembled robot to last long; he only needed it for a few days.

Besides, there are more robots in the Iron Guard restricted area. If he could get in touch with them, he could seize control. There's no need to go through the trouble of creating robots.

Thanks to Schwarzlo's hard work, several seemingly normal robots managed to scale the wall and enter the Iron Guard restricted area, only to be intercepted and inspected by the Iron Guard.

However, his skills are so advanced that he won't detect any problems.

After a while, all the robots in the Iron Guard restricted area will be renamed Schwarz.

Outside the penalty area, Schwarzkopf did not rest but continued to build robots.

Creations of the rift continue to be generated; there aren't many near the forbidden zone, but there are many deeper inside...

Considering his future plans, he needed to build some machines to block the attacks of the Rift Creatures.

As for the soldiers guarding the restricted area, they would not rashly venture into the rift.

After all, the Rift is quite dangerous. Although it is a fixed map in the game, the map of the real Rift can change, since the Rift is constantly expanding and changes are normal.

Taking various factors into account, Schwarzro chose to build machine guns and fix them around the iron gate to defend against the Rift Creatures.

Meanwhile, Oleg and the others who remained in the upper area were studying the machinery that Fang Rui had left them in the machine room.

"How convenient! Such a small thing can actually transmit information."

Looking at the communicator screen, Oleg exclaimed in amazement, "They really are visitors from outer space, possessing technology that we don't have."

"The situation in Rocky Town is stable, and there have been no unexpected events. Schwarz's mechanized forces, led by Clara, have moved to Rocky Town."

Looking at the text on the screen, Oleg frowned slightly. "But how are we going to get so many robots into the Iron Guard restricted area?"

“The Iron Guard restricted area purchases a batch of robots every now and then, disguising them as robots ordered by the Iron Guard, so they should be able to be delivered to the Iron Guard restricted area.”

"As for the order issue, I have a way to resolve it," said Hiluva.

It wasn't a forgery; it was asking Jepard for help.

If there were a batch of low-cost, high-quality robotic soldiers, Jepard would definitely be interested.

The front lines against the creations of the Rift Realm have always been short of manpower.

“But…” someone objected, “Isn’t it strange that so many robots are appearing at once?”

“How about we change it to ‘capture’?” one of them said. “Back when we were dealing with Schwarzro, we would occasionally capture some robots.”

After all, Swallow didn't really like communicating with them, and conflicts would occasionally break out.

Therefore, the Earthfire organization will gain something after defeating the robots.

"To be determined..." It sounds like a feasible plan, but there are some serious legacy issues.

"Is there any other solution?"

In response to his question, the others remained silent, clearly indicating that they had no solution.

Hiluva, recalling what someone had said about waiting for Cocolia's actions, paused for a moment before saying, "Actually, we can wait a while. If nothing unexpected happens, something unexpected will occur soon, and that will be an opportunity..."

Bronya is in the lower district, Jepard is in the Iron Guard restricted area, and Cocolia has left the administrative district. If they seize the opportunity, they can send a batch of mechanical soldiers to the Iron Guard restricted area.

Compared to the previous plan, Oleg felt this plan was better, at least it would ensure that the captured machine soldiers wouldn't just pile up in the warehouse.

Furthermore, selecting mechanical soldiers with sufficiently high movement speeds could potentially allow them to traverse the administrative district before the Iron Guards could react...

Give it a try; if it doesn't work, just force your way through.

Within the administrative district, the Iron Guards' weapons are relatively conventional, lacking machine guns or similar weapons. A small number of mechanical soldiers can easily hold off the Iron Guards.

The results of the group's discussion were sent to Fang Rui via communicator. Upon receiving the message, Fang Rui replied with "OK" to indicate that the plan was in order.

"Speaking of which, I didn't give Schwarzro a communicator, so how is he supposed to contact me?"

Thinking of a certain question, Fang Rui paused for a moment, then sent a message instructing Hilva to keep an eye on Cocolia's movements. Once Cocolia left the administrative district, it meant that Swaro had found the location of the star core. After all, the star core could not remain indifferent if someone approached it.

Just to be on the safe side, if Cocolia did not leave the administrative district on the third day, he would have to slightly modify his plan, for example, by taking Hilva into the Iron Guard restricted area.

Thinking this, Fang Rui left the temporary research room. The research on the Earth Marrow was over; it was an ordinary energy ore with nothing particularly special about it.

"Where are Danheng, Xinghe, and March 7th?"

After looking around the hospital entrance for a while, Fang Rui didn't see anyone he recognized. He stopped a passerby and asked, "Excuse me, have you seen a girl with pink hair?"

Compared to Danheng and Xing, March 7th is more conspicuous, giving people a certain feeling...

It looked like it was sparkling.

"I know them." The passerby nodded slightly. After the previous breakfast incident, Fang Rui and his group had become quite famous, after all, it was a delicious dish whose aroma could be smelled hundreds of meters away.

"They were in the mining area, seemingly busy with something."

"Thank you." After handing a bag of milk candy to the passerby as a reward, Fang Rui headed towards the mining area.

In short, join the exploration team!

A passerby looked at the milk candy, unwrapped one, and threw it into his mouth.

"So sweet!" he exclaimed in surprise, looking down at the milk candy.

After thinking for a moment, he hurriedly left the place.

On the other side, Fang Rui, who had left Panyan Town, soon arrived at the mining area.

The mining area is quite vast, and without the relevant information, it would be difficult to find a single person.

Fortunately, there were miners in many parts of the mining area. By asking around, Fang Rui gathered information and learned the location of March 7th. At the same time, he was given packets of milk candy or other snacks.

This led to a rapid increase in his fame, but his reputation began to veer towards being "generous"...

Chapter 532

In addition to the miners from Panyan Town, members of the Earth Fire organization also patrol the mining area, responsible for protecting the miners' safety and organizing evacuations in case of danger.

After all, there is no clear dividing line between the mining area and the Rift, and occasionally Rift creatures wander out of Rivet Town and enter the mining area.

In addition, out-of-control automatons and greedy wanderers are also dangers in the mining area.

The homeless are in particular a bit more danger compared to the homeless.

On his way to find March 7 and the others, Fang Rui encountered several vagrants who blocked his road with crudely made weapons, attempting to rob him.

If it were a lone miner, a group of several might be able to steal something.

Targeting Fang Rui was a recipe for disaster. After quickly knocking the group unconscious, Fang Rui continued exploring and eventually found March 7 and the others somewhere in the mining area.

"What are you doing?"

Seeing the somewhat disappointed looks on everyone's faces, Fang Rui became curious and asked directly.

"Dad's treasure..." Hook held a mechanical object, looking like he was about to cry.

Beside them, March 7th and Star were providing supplementary explanations, recounting the process of finding the treasure.

“Emmm…” Fang Rui nodded slightly, occasionally responding with “I see,” but his gaze never left the mechanical products.

"I studied it for a while, and its structure is quite simple. You can continue using it by replacing a probe, but if you don't have a replacement probe..."

"Then you need to find the damaged probe so I can study it and see if it can be repaired or replicated."

"Can it really be fixed?!" Hook looked surprised, leaning forward as if he were about to jump up.

"As expected of you!" March 7th praised.

"The broken probe is here." Xing took out the broken probe and handed it to Fang Rui.

"Let me take a look..." Fang Rui took the probe, studied it for a while, and said, "It's difficult to repair, and replicating it will require some materials."

As he spoke, he looked at Hook, "I think you probably don't have the relevant materials, so..."

Upon hearing this, Hook's expression changed rapidly, from hopeful to disappointed.

"Help me out, I'll provide the materials."
