Just stay in the City of Steel...... It doesn't seem like a bad thing either.

You don't have to go on adventures, you don't have to fight mutated creatures and zombies, you don't have to face the danger of death or even being eliminated......

It's just that......

It's just that...... All this, for Qi Lin, still seems to be far from enough!

A city of steel...... No matter how it develops, it is just a small place in a corner of the wasteland, due to the special geographical location, with the materials left by the old era, the development speed of the steel city in the early game can be said to be the fastest in the Huaxia region, but in the later development potential, the steel city has exposed its shortcomings.

First of all, there are many radiation zones around the steel city, and in addition to the radiation areas, most of them are deserts with nothing - the coastal areas of Zhejiang Province are densely populated and economically developed, and when war comes, they are the key strike areas of the enemy's nuclear weapons in addition to the capital, important military targets, provincial capitals and municipalities directly under the central government.

The nuclear bomb almost washed the ground in Zhejiang Province, and not only were there few remnants of the old era, but even suitable arable land for growing crops and suitable land for the expansion of satellite cities was scarce.

Not only that, the energy minerals and metal minerals around the steel city are very poor - when the factories in the city are operational, they also need to rely on the raw materials sent in from the outside by the Cheng consortium, don't look at the current steel city and the Cheng consortium are still in the honeymoon period, if the position of the two sides changes one day, just in terms of minerals and energy, the other party can choke the important lifeline of the steel city.

Moreover, in the inventory of the Steel City, Qi Lin did not find C-grade or higher grade serums, and there were no rare high-level mutant creatures around, which meant that if Qi Lin stayed in the Steel City, his own strength would also stagnate and stagnate.

As a supply depot and safe haven, the City of Steel is a good choice, but if it is to be a foundation for a foothold in the wasteland, the foundation of a steel city is still a little too thin.

Seeing a look on Qi Lin's face, Cheng Yanqiu had almost guessed what Qi Lin was thinking.

"Then I wonder if you're interested in going north?"

"North?"

Recently, this word has not been mentioned for the first time, even if Qi Lin does not pay attention to the affairs in the north, he also knows that the entire northeast of China, the Russian Far East and the small half of the Siberian Plain are not very calm now, and on the Sino-Russian border map, more than a dozen forces in the four old era countries of China, Russia, Goryeo, and Dongying have been fighting for more than a month.

"Yes, the Far North, permafrost tundra. After the nuclear winter passed, it was almost as cold as the previous poles, but the war was getting more and more intense - in fact, if it weren't for you, I might have been there by now, according to the development plan of the consortium, it is completely impossible not to meddle in the affairs of the north, and the advance force of the consortium has already set off half a month ago. ”

"The fight in the north is so chaotic, do you still want to intervene?" Qi Lin asked with some confusion.

"Then do you know why there is a fight over there?" Cheng Yanqiu asked rhetorically.

Qi Lin shook his head, he only knew that it was the Koreans and the Russians who fought at the beginning, and then he didn't know what was going on, Huaxia and Dongying were also involved, and until now, it has developed into a complete chaos war.

"Oil, coal, and a very large uranium mine." Cheng Yanqiu said word by word.

Hearing these words, Qi Lin suddenly realized that the Siberian region is vast and sparsely populated, but it is extremely rich in mineral resources and energy resources, and there were many oil fields and coal mines in the old era, but what Qi Lin didn't know was that there was actually a uranium mine with rich reserves there.

After the end of World War II, the Soviet Union sent more than 600,000 prisoners of war to Siberia for "labor reform" - this is the origin of the famous phrase "send to Siberia to dig coal".

"The oil fields and coal mines in Siberia are among the few that have not been completely exhausted before the war, and when the people in the shelters return to the surface, a new war will definitely break out for these minerals.

War......

War again...... Qi Lin suddenly sighed, human beings are never in war, or in the process of preparing for war.

“ar，ar-never-changes.”

However, if it is really as Cheng Yanqiu said, then this war will inevitably break out - three years ago, people almost razed the surface of the earth for these things, and five years later, they will still start a new war for these things.

Although the world has been destroyed once, but human beings have not become extinct, then the war will not stop.

"It's impossible for the Cheng consortium to give up this opportunity." Cheng Yanqiu sighed.

No one likes war, but everyone has a reason to fight for it.

"Then how are you going to go, as far as I know, there are many obstacles on the way to the permafrost tundra." Qi Lin asked.

The area where they are now is the southeast coast of China in the old era, and if you want to enter the Siberian Plain, you have to cross most of the border of China longitudinally, in the old times, it may only be a few hours flight by plane, but in the wasteland, it is completely different.

No matter how well-equipped a team is, there is a huge price to pay to traverse such a long distance – especially once the difficulty of the entire game world rises to level two.

The Cheng Consortium may own transport planes, but as far as they know, flying is far more dangerous than crossing the ground - air supremacy in the wasteland, and it is now completely in the hands of powerful flying mutant creatures like the King Blood Dragon Lizard.

"I'm going to borrow it from you."

"From me? Are you going to-" Qi Lin suddenly remembered, although the Jiangsu-Zhejiang supercarrier could not sail now, the decommissioned "Ningbo" missile destroyer was intact, and Cheng Yanqiu and the people of the Cheng consortium could take the Ningbo, go all the way north along the coastline of China, and then dock near the mouth of the Heilongjiang River.

While the waterways are not necessarily completely safe, they are much better than land and air.

"Would you be reluctant to sell or lease the destroyer Ningbo to us? Trust me, we will give you a satisfactory price. ”

"No, if you want this destroyer, just buy it, you won't need it to stay in Steel City anyway." Qi Lin paused, then continued:

"I was just thinking, if I'm going to take a ride, can you help me get my ticket free?"
