Everyone's on a time-travel adventure! I'm raising city beasts in a post-apocalyptic world
Chapter 30 Vehicle Modification
Lin Feng stood still, watching the cars being driven to their designated spots.
Guo Yi stood next to a luxury RV, which was Wang Lie's main vehicle. He was surrounded by a group of support staff, some handing him tools and others carrying materials.
"Quickly, quickly, drain all the fuel from all the vehicles, don't leave a single drop."
Rubber hoses were inserted into the car's fuel tank, black gasoline was pumped out and poured into metal fuel drums, and the car, after the fuel was pumped out, was pushed aside and dismantled.
Several men surrounded the cars, and under Guo Yi's direction, they disassembled all the parts one by one.
"Move all the dismantled tires and materials over here, especially the batteries, move them all over here, hurry up..." Guo Yi shouted.
The logistics team worked quickly, and the vehicles were soon dismantled into pieces. Then they moved the items to the side of the RV.
Then Lin Feng saw Guo Yi place his hands on the car body, and wisps of blue light spread from his palms to the car body and the pile of materials.
Then a magical thing happened.
The materials seemed to melt and blend into the car body. First, the tires changed. The original pneumatic tires quickly expanded, deformed, and reshaped, eventually becoming solid rubber tires. The tires looked like they were made of rubber and steel plates fused together, with a metallic sheen on the surface. The tires doubled in size, becoming almost as tall as a person.
Then the vehicle's chassis extends, as if the entire vehicle is being lifted by an invisible hand. The height of the chassis suddenly increases by a level, and the suspension system is modified and strengthened. At a glance, you can tell that the off-road capability has been improved by several levels.
Next is the body armor. There seems to be a flow of metal on the surface of the body, which has changed from thin sheet metal to thick armor. Anti-collision nets have also been added around the body.
A metal guardrail about half a person's height was installed around the roof of the vehicle.
The entire process took less than an hour, and this RV was transformed into a luxury armored RV, even increasing in size significantly.
Lin Feng's mouth was slightly open, and he didn't close it for a long time.
"Awesome..."
"How was it?" Chen Min crossed her arms and looked at Lin Feng with a smug expression. "Guo Yi's abilities are pretty good, aren't they?"
"Not only is it good," Lin Feng said, circling the armored vehicle and marveling at it. "When this thing is on the road, ordinary mutated creatures can't do anything to it. Even level 1 mutated creatures can't bite through this iron lump."
"Yes!" Chen Min said, "Guo Yi's position in the convoy is much higher than you think. Although he doesn't participate in combat, without him, we would have been trapped and died on the road long ago."
Lin Feng nodded in agreement.
This isn't a machine repair shop; it's clearly a humanoid modification factory.
At this moment, Guo Yi was covered in cold sweat, holding a strange crystal in his hand to absorb it and quickly recover his abilities as he walked towards Wang Lie.
"Captain, we're running out of materials. I focused on modifying the power system of this vehicle, not only increasing the engine's horsepower but also adding a hybrid electric system that can charge the battery while driving. However, the modifications have consumed too many materials."
"We still have 7 large buses, 2 public buses, and 4 trucks that need to be modified. Even if we dismantle all the cars that have been brought back and the sedans we already had, it still won't be enough."
Wang Lie was silent for a few seconds, then asked, "How much short?"
"It's a huge difference," Guo Yi pointed to the buses. "The armored coverage area of the buses is too large. Even if we only modify the tires, suspension system, and crash protection structure, it will require a lot of materials. There's only enough material for a maximum of two buses. We're severely short of materials."
"Furthermore, I have an idea: if we can find enough materials, I can install a shooting platform on the roof of a bus. Once I advance to level 2, I can fuse the strange materials to make a vehicle-mounted repeating crossbow, so that even ordinary people can deal with mutated creatures and strange beings."
Wang Lie pondered for a moment and said in a deep voice
"I'll requisition the private vehicles in the convoy, and I'll figure out a way to break through the bottleneck of the Level 2 Mystic Crystal..."
"I'll arrange it." Guo Yi turned to leave.
"Wait," Wang Lie called out to him, turning to Chen Min. "Chen Min, you handle this matter. Ask the people in the convoy if anyone is willing to give up their vehicle. Try to get them to do it on a voluntary basis. If they are willing, arrange a parking space for them. If they are not willing, that's fine. Don't force them."
Chen Min nodded and turned to walk towards the camp.
She certainly knew why Wang Lie emphasized voluntariness. In this apocalyptic environment, a car is a life. For ordinary people, owning a car means having the last bit of autonomy.
Taking away their cars is like taking away their hope.
"Guo Yi, you stay here and continue modifying the vehicles, try to create as many empty spaces as possible..."
"Yes, Captain..."
Wang Lie then looked at Dong Yu, Liu Tiezhu, and Fang Ling.
"You three, choose a portion of the patrol team and come with me."
"Where to?" Liu Tiezhu asked.
"When I came back just now, I saw a car repair shop on the edge of town," Wang Lie said, pointing in the direction of town.
"There's a large truck parked on the east side of town. There should be plenty of materials there, enough for us."
The three responded and went to gather their men.
Wang Lie took two steps, then suddenly stopped and turned to look at Lin Feng.
"Lin Feng, are you going or not?"
Lin Feng was taken aback; he hadn't expected Wang Lie to invite him.
To be honest, Lin Feng didn't want to go. He had just taken a shower, changed into clean clothes, and had a good meal. He was looking for a place to lie down and rest. If he hadn't wanted to see the excitement, he wouldn't have come.
Lin Feng thought this way, and that's what he did.
"Uh, Captain, the sun is so strong right now, and the vengeful spirits won't dare to come out. Since there's no danger, I think I'll pass. I still need to renovate the house on my turtle's back. Little Xuan has grown up so much; I need to go back and adjust it. I'll definitely go next time... Goodbye, Captain..."
Lin Feng ran off without looking back, making Wang Lie's lips twitch...
Inside the camp, Chen Min was arranging for people to ask questions in each vehicle.
"Uncle Zhang, how much further can your van go? The fleet's buses are being modified and need materials. If you're willing to contribute, the fleet can arrange an empty seat for you."
"Can I get in your car? I don't need this bread cart anymore."
Chen Min made a note in her notebook, then turned and walked toward the next bus.
A young woman was standing next to a red Mazda, holding a two- or three-year-old child.
"Would you be willing to contribute your car?"
The young woman nodded. "This car was bought for me by my husband when we got married. He... he just a couple of days ago..." She didn't finish her sentence, her eyes reddening.
Chen Min was silent for two seconds, then made a note in her notebook.
"Take the child and find a seat on the bus. Tell the driver it was arranged by me."
The young woman nodded, packed her luggage and belongings in the car, and left with her child.
Chen Min took a deep breath and continued walking towards the next vehicle.
One vehicle after another was registered.
Some people are willing, some are not.
If someone is unwilling, don't force them; just turn around and leave.
