Ark’s apocalyptic line, but the fourth natural disaster!

This thing has been stored in the underground workshop for so many years, and it is still powering the equipment inside. I don’t know how much energy is left inside.

"A type of energy, military en-9 type rhombus source stone fuel, we usually call it rhombus energy or rhombus fuel." Maria became confident after talking about her professional knowledge, "To use it, you need supporting equipment. Convert crew.”

"Switch crew?"

"It's the energy conversion base, which converts Source Stone energy into electrical energy."

"I see."

After Maria left, Tu Shanyao picked up the rhombus crystal fuel and observed it carefully. On the two large bevels of the rhombus crystal, one side was inlaid with a standard interface, and the other side was a handle.

It is not recommended to hold this thing with your hands for a long time. It is said that it will cause hallucinations and stimulate bioelectricity, so it is equipped with a grip.

There is a small screen on this side of the grip. There is an icon similar to a mobile phone battery, showing that the current energy remaining is 21%.

Such a small rhombus fuel has been used by the underground workshop for so many years. Not to mention the destruction, it has been used for an unknown period of time in normal periods, and there is still 21% left. This is really Zenith star energy.

Lingjing Energy was very stable and would not leak or pollute. Tu Shanyao decided to keep it first.

As for the conversion unit, he plans to find a few players who understand mechanics to dismantle the one in the underground black workshop.

At eight or nine in the morning, most players were online.

Tu Shanyao found the busy Dog God and purchased a batch of specially made propellants.

Currently, there is only one type of propellant that can be mass-produced, namely black powder.Tu Shanyao actually didn't want to use this kind of propellant, but he had no choice.

Black powder is usually a mixture of potassium nitrate, which is saltpeter, charcoal and sulfur powder.It is easy to burn and susceptible to moisture, and has less destructive power.When it explodes, smoke will be produced and the explosion temperature will be high, which will ablate the inner chamber.

Bring the black powder to Maria and ask her to fill it in the cartridge case, then load it with the warhead, and you will get a bullet.

This kind of bullet cannot be used for gun weapons. Currently, only the iron pipe gun made by Dog God can be used.

The effects of non-standard firearms and non-standard bullets can be imagined.

Tu Shanyao originally didn't want to waste bullets like this. The number of cartridge cases and warheads was limited, especially the warheads, which generally could not be recycled after use.But there was no way, Old Man Bude's threat was imminent, so he had to do this.The high-energy active source stone for making gun bullets is currently not available at all, and the shelter only has so many gun bullets.

The only way to survive is to use the iron pipe gun.

It is a firearm after all. Although it cannot shoot from a distance, the damage caused in close combat is still very objective.

On Maria's side, there is good news and bad news.

The bad news is that lathe-pressing bullets by hand is inefficient and can produce defective pieces.

The good news is, the engraver is good.

It doesn't matter if it's a defective product, it's originally meant for iron barrel guns, as long as it can be fired.

After telling Maria to produce 300 rounds of bullets first, Tu Shanyao came near Zakujun's wood workshop.

"Administrator, there is no way to rush out the ballista." Mr. Zaku stopped what he was doing. "The structure of the ballista is complex and requires very high materials. Even if we go all out to make it, we can't make one in two days." .”

"What about the catapult?"

"The catapult can be used," Zaku Jun said. "This thing is not complicated. It only requires a simple elastic throwing mechanism, which can ensure its use in wartime."

It is guaranteed to be used in wartime, which means it will break after use.

"Okay, the ammunition I prepared is kerosene bombs, and the throwing spoon should be as fireproof as possible." Tu Shanyao prepared to use sawdust and needle grease to make kerosene bombs as ammunition for the catapult.

"How many can we make?"

"Two days, maximum 3." Lord Zaku said.

Three?Just use it.

Equipment such as catapults can only be used now. After a period of development, they will be replaced by gunpowder weapons, such as mortars and the like.

Tu Shanyao was walking in the gathering place thinking about the problem when a young player ran over quickly.

"Administrator, there are strangers outside again."

stranger?

Tu Shanyao was startled at first, thinking that Old Man Bude had attacked him in advance, but then he found that there was no movement outside the wooden wall.

"what kind of person?"

"Wow, this guy is driving a super cool large tracked vehicle, followed by four off-road pickup trucks. It's awesome."

"Oh?" Tu Shanyao suddenly became interested after hearing this.

Outside the wooden wall, the convoy that the player mentioned stopped on the trade road of the old era.

The giant tracked armored vehicle headed by it has a really cool shape, with a length of nearly 30 meters, which is longer than any heavy truck on earth. It has a two-person-high plastic vacuum tire in the front and a triangular rotating track in the back.

On the triangular crawler belt, there was a cargo box much larger than a container, which looked like a truck.

A flag stood on top of the front of the car on the oversized tires.

Rusty Hammer Chamber of Commerce.

107 Rusty Hammer Chamber of Commerce

Desert camouflage armor spraying, elastic shock-absorbing mechanism, and alloy tracks.

For male players, this kind of heavy machinery is nothing more than something that exists in science fiction movies.

In the continent of Terra, only something like the Origin Stone can drive such a huge armored vehicle to travel long distances.

"It reminds me of that big construction machine over there in Europe."

"So handsome."

"I recognize the taste of modellers."

"Can't you get out of the perimeter?"

"Kind of like a Red Alert base vehicle, the real thing."

"Who are these people?"

The players stopped one after another to take a look.

When Tu Shanyao came out of the gate, he was also shocked. What was going on with a convoy of this size?

In the apocalypse after the Great Quiet, is there such a large organization and power?

Rusty Hammer Chamber of Commerce?

Seeing that flag, Tu Shanyao thought of something.

At this time, the large armored vehicle slowly stopped, the brake mechanism was running, and there was a slight mechanical friction sound.

From a pickup truck behind, a middle-aged Luper man wearing a large black windbreaker stepped out.

Seeing the other party walking towards the gate of the gathering place, Tu Shanyao also went up to meet him.

"Hello, we are traders traveling across the land. Do you need any trade assistance?"

peddler?Is Hongshang so impressive?

"Hello." Tu Shanyao, "What do you mean by trade assistance?"

The other party was very polite, but he was not a businessman and needed to be discussed.

"We have various commodities here, such as food, tools, weapons, energy, Originium products, collectibles, secrets, etc." Man Luper was very polite, "If you have enough Originium ingots, you can buy them Required goods.”

"Do you just want Source Stone ingots?"

"Of course, in this land, only Originium ingots can become currency." The Luper man said, "Oh, by the way, you can call me Archibald."

"I would like to ask, is your boss Mr. Cannott?"

"Oh~? You actually know about this." Archibald's expression did not change much. The Rusty Hammer Chamber of Commerce has been operating independently, and few people know that the Chamber of Commerce has a boss.

Even Archibald himself has never met the boss.

He was a legendary figure with great supernatural powers, mysteriousness and abiding by the rules. Stories and legends about the boss were spread everywhere in this land.

"I'm lucky enough to hear it."

Before time travel, there was an integrated strategy mode in the game, which players called Meat Pigeon. Cannott opened a shop in it.What’s amazing is that whether it’s a forest wilderness, a strange castle, or even the deep sea in the apocalyptic war, this guy can easily open a shop there.

It's even opened in front of the BOSS.

His identity, background and abilities are evident.

"Even so, there are no discounts, sir." Archibald took off his hat, shook off the snowflakes, and then took out a tablet computer from his body, "Here is an introduction to the existing products."

Tu Shanyao took the tablet and found that there were a series of product columns and prices on it.

Click on the food, and below there are vegetarian ingredients such as rice, wheat, corn, and potatoes, as well as meat ingredients such as feathered animal meat, pack animal meat, and scaled animal meat.

However, most of them are marked 'sold out', it seems that Archibald has been to many places.

One unit of feathered beast meat weighs 2kg, which is 4 pounds.The selling price is 1 Originium Bar.

The exchange ratio in nearby settlements, taking Koppah as an example, one source stone ingot is about 1 resource points, and one resource point can be exchanged for 10g of meat. In other words, one source stone ingot can be exchanged for 1 kilograms of meat locally.

As for the exchange price of 1g of meat for 100 resource point in the Bude settlement, it is obviously exploitative.

In comparison, the Rusty Hammer Merchant weighs a pound more.

It's hard to believe that a businessman can sell goods at such a high cost performance.

After meeting Lavsky, the profiteer in Kurokawahara, Tu Shanyao felt a bit unreal.

It is impossible that the Rusty Hammer Chamber of Commerce did not investigate the market conditions in this region in advance, but it still gave this trade ratio. There must be some kind of intrigue among the merchants.

Otherwise, do charity?

Tu Shanyao didn't want to analyze the twists and turns. Since the products in front of him were cost-effective, he could buy some in moderation.

There are not many products on the tablet, and you can finish them in a few minutes.

"Archibald can call me Yao." Tu Shanyao tentatively said, "I don't know if you accept bartering."

He had previously obtained a sum of Origin Stones from the safe, but it was only over 200.The goods he planned to buy were far more than this price.

"Sir, have you seen the product?" Archibald said.

Tu Shanyao nodded.

"Then you should know how rich our product range is." Archibald said, "The lowest price for all products is 1 Originium Ingot. Although some are sold out, this is only the current batch. .”
