Next chapter

Unfortunately, on the 25th, it rained heavily in Taipei.

Heavy rain washed the sand and mud into a dirty mud, and as the rain poured into the unfilled foundations, several construction machines broke down. Because the construction conditions were too simple, the progress of the project was extremely difficult, and even came to a standstill......

"If this rain continues, we'll have to fight the mirelurks on the beach. Standing on the watchtower of the expeditionary fortress, looking at the construction site on the beach of despair, Li Wang's brow was tightly knit.

But no one expected that this rain would fall so heavily.

When Hongcheng cleaned up the water plant gang, Jiang Chen had some impressions of those difficult mirelurks. The carapace that bullets can't pierce, the pincers that can crush steel, and the delicious crab roe......

However, according to Chen Guangning, the mireurk crab is also divided into river crab and sea crab. The carapace of mirelurk crabs living in marine environments is darker, larger, and more ferocious. Anything smaller than it will become an object of prey.

Without the protection of the walls, fighting these monsters in the wilderness would have been unrealistic.

The heavy rain slowed down the progress of the project, and Jiang Chen had no better way to do it. If he had no chance of winning, he had to order an evacuation and wait until the summer solstice to transfer the space elevator. Let his subordinates die for an impossible task, Jiang Chen can't do such a thing anyway.

After taking a deep breath, Jiang Chen spoke.

"If 80% of the work is not completed on March 1, then withdraw our men from the front line, retreat to the forts, and evacuate in batches. ”

"What about the survivors?" asked Li Wang.

"You don't need to ask me about this kind of thing. ”

Jiang Chen glanced at him, turned around and left the watchtower.

If the expeditionary force were to evacuate, how the fate of these survivors would be obvious.

However, even if the survivors who didn't have time to hide died tragically because of it, he would still make that choice.

After all, he is more responsible for the lives of his own than the lives of these strangers.

……

The rain was pouring down on the concrete pavement, and the sky over Taipei was covered with a thick haze. The horror of the Calamity Moon haunts the hearts of every Yizhou survivor, lingering like a ghost.

Heading north into the city, passing through two streets and a station, you will find a settlement that looks like a shack. The town has no name, it is named Town 79 because of the number of the shelter. People built houses out of scavenged bricks and billboards, and lived together in a crowded crowd, trying to draw pitiful warmth from these last days.

However, this warmth is so pale when danger comes.

Those who had saved up enough of Ajing had already taken refuge in the shelter early, while those who did not have Ajing could only look at the already numb guards with pleading eyes. Some people will survive, while others will have to fend for themselves in the catastrophe, and even the remaining islands will not escape this axiom that is universal in the last days.

The guards standing guard at the door leaned against the rain shed, leaning on their dirty assault rifles, wandering their gaze slightly irritably.

For the passers-by, they just glanced at them in a hurry, and they didn't bother to interrogate them carefully. The island lacks resources and has a relatively closed economy, and there are almost no predators who form settlements on Yizhou Island, but there are some survivors who can't survive, and occasionally work part-time as bandits.

Inheriting the arsenal of Vault 79, the town of 79 is home to 500 heavily armed soldiers, which can be regarded as the largest survivor force in the whole of Taipei, and it is generally impossible for unsightly bandits to come to this vicinity to find themselves uncomfortable.

In the heavy rain, a group of people in raincoats walked towards the town. The hood of the raincoat covered the faces of these three people tightly, how suspicious it looked. However, the guards just glanced at the three of them and looked away.

Following the gate of the town, Lin Ling shrunk her cuffs into her raincoat and whispered.

"Can't these sloppy guys fix their houses cleaner?"

"No matter how good it is, it's useless, and when the month of calamity passes, the only intact estimate here is the eggs of the mireurishers. Chen Guangning gave full play to his role as a guide at the moment and introduced to Lin Ling and Jiang Chen.

Scavengers are sensitive to human odors, and whenever the Calamity Moon comes, mirelurks will spontaneously move in the direction of human settlements.

Jiang Chen glanced at the surrounding buildings, and didn't comment too much on the living habits of these survivors. In terms of size, the town should be able to accommodate five or six thousand people. However, at this moment, there is no human figure in sight on the crooked streets. By this time, as Chen said, most people had fled to shelters or outside the town.

This time, he came to No. 79 Town to inquire about the whereabouts of the nuclear power plant, and by the way, to see what this town built on Yizhou Island looks like. Li Wang was very opposed to him acting alone at first, but Jiang Chen still insisted on doing so.

There were too many people following him, and it was inconvenient for him to carry the nuclear device to the present world.

As for whether Chen Guangning is reliable, there is no need to worry about this.

Whether people lie or not, slave chips don't lie.

The three of them turned two alleys and came to the door of a bar. Chen Guangning walked to a mossy broken door, stretched out his hand and knocked lightly three times. It didn't take long for the door to open.

In the shadows, an expressionless face appeared behind the door. It was a public face that could not be found in the crowd, and if there was anything that could make a deep impression on this face, it was probably his sharp eyes.

When he saw Chen Guangning, he was obviously surprised.

"Old Chen?" his gaze stayed on Chen Guangning for a moment, and then fell on the two people behind him, the man grinned, "And brought guests?"

Being very uncomfortable to look at by this gaze, the timid Lin Ling shrank next to Jiang Chen. Jiang Chen gently squeezed her hand, signaling her not to be nervous.

"That's right, I'm still here to take care of your business in the first 5 days of the Calamity Month, do you think you can give a discounted price?" Chen Guangning spread his hands and said.

"You know, it's always a price to get me to work. With that, the man turned and walked into the dimly lit room, "Welcome to my office, as long as the price is right, there is nothing I can't do on Yizhou Island." Credibility Guarantee. ”

Stepping into the door, Jiang Chen looked at the layout of the house, the first feeling was not cold and damp, and the second feeling was that this meow can really live in people?

"Just sit down, no tea is served here. The man grinned, his eyes staring straight at Jiang Chen.

Instinct told him that this was his employer.

Without taking off his raincoat, Jiang Chen sat on the old sofa so casually and asked casually.

"What do you call it?"

"You can call me a mole. The mole said with a smile.

Judging from his expression, he didn't really care about Jiang Chen wetting his sofa.

"I need you to help me find a place, can I do that?"

"It's easy, as long as you can afford the price. ”

Can you afford the price?

Jiang Chen smiled, it had been a long time since anyone had asked him such an interesting question.

Without asking for a specific price, he paused and spoke directly.

"Shimizu Nuclear Power Plant, I want you to help me find its exact location, and the password to get administrator privileges. How, can it be done?"-

I recommend the book written by a friend, "Refining Demons in the Sea". (To be continued.) )
