Chapter 56: The Black Box

In the afternoon, Chen Ning moved a wooden recliner to the compound of the Consulate, and then leaned on it comfortably, soaking up the sun, which was extremely comfortable.

It was a hassle to transport and distribute that huge amount of materials, and in the past two weeks, he and the relevant persons in charge of the Ruling Administration, the Military Commission, and the factory have been busy with their feet, and of course they are all happy in their hearts, these things are enough to compensate for the consumption that this battle has brought to Qinghua, and also give the powerful neighbor in the north a dismount.

Although the battle readiness order had been withdrawn and the people in the gathering place began to recuperate, Chen Ning still instructed a large number of new sentry agents to be added to the north, and an army was stationed in the temporary camp where they negotiated with Bi Nan to prevent Bi Nan from declaring war.

Looking back, the situation in other agglomerations within 80 kilometers to the south has been thoroughly investigated. Of course, this includes Tongbei, which is only more than 20 kilometers away, but fortunately, Chen Ning has known it by chance, and knows that it is a conservative gathering place, and the leaders of the gathering place have never gone far away, and I am afraid that even the army system is not perfect.

Of course, it's too big, so there's no need or time to provoke it now.

The operation of the army system is still non-stop, Chen Ning plans to mobilize 3,000 soldiers, and the sword is pointed directly at those small gathering places in the south, and with the resources of Buting Mountain as the foundation, this Qinghua gathering place does not need to tighten his belt to support the army.

It takes time for the mobilization of troops and logistics transportation, so in this rare period, Chen Ning can have the leisure to enjoy this leisure, and by the way, try to see what benefits this satellite phone can bring as a compensation for a large part of the resources.

He took out the satellite phone of the so-called "club" communication tool that he had obtained from completing the agreement with Bu Tingshan two weeks ago and exchanging materials, and put it under the sun to examine it carefully.

The satellite phone frame is cuboidal, black throughout, palm-sized, like a black box.

Disassemble it, activate the light brain in the brain to detect it, and confirm that it is not entrained with any other chips or devices, and Chen Ning reassembles it.

There are several digital buttons on its front, according to the password given by Bu Tingshan, Chen Ning pressed it a few times, and with a "swipe" sound, a piece of blue light shot out from the gap at the top of the black box, and scattered to the front of Chen Ning about thirty centimeters away, forming a suspended blue light screen.

The light screen is divided into four large sections, with the words "Contacts/Private Chat", "Group Chat", "Apps" and "Circles", which was a common style in mobile phone design at the end of the old century.

Finger tap on the address book/private chat, a new interface appears, there is only one Bu Tingshan's avatar in it for the time being, he should have taken the initiative to add it, Chen Ning had little interest, and touched the back button.

Back to the initial selection interface, Chen Ning clicked again to enter the "Group Chat" module, which showed that several groups of people were chatting in a group, but they were all encrypted, Chen Ning could not enter, and returned again.

After that, click into the "Application" interface, there are a few mini-games, but there is nothing else, enter the interface of the "circle", and there are only a few photos of the Billet South Gathering Place in Buting Mountain.

Observing carefully, Chen Ning found that the trees there were different from the evergreen broad-leaved forests in Qinghua, they were all deciduous broad-leaved forests, the land was temperate, and the distance was not far, so Chen Ning could easily judge its approximate location.

If Bu Tingshan knew that a few pictures could make Chen Ning get so much information, he would definitely be distressed.

"Didi." Suddenly, a small exclamation mark appeared in the upper left corner of the light screen, and Chen Ning tapped it lightly, and a chat window popped up.

"Hello, it's a new friend. /smiley"

At the top of the chat window, the other party's name was written, called Ma Lunman, Chen Ning felt a little familiar, and he didn't remember who it was for a while, but he saw that the other party's name was still embellished with a line of small words:

"Location: Rongcheng, 1296 kilometers away from you."

His face sank, he can see others, which means that others can also see his own, Qinghua is now fledgling, if there is a bad heart......

He didn't care about replying, he hurriedly narrowed the chat window, and returned to the original interface, sure enough, there was a small gear pattern on the right side of the four major plates, and there was a switch that hid his geographical location and did not display it when he entered, and Chen Ning naturally turned it off.

I felt a little calmer, and then I turned around and clicked on the chat window, and found that the person had sent another sentence:

"Hello, I am Ma Lunman, the initiator of the club, and it was Bu Tingshan, an A-level ability, who recommended you to me and applied to join, let me confirm."

Chen Ning opened the tablet and wrote with his fingers: "Yes, the situation is correct. ”

"Notice you've turned off your personal location?"

"Yes, does the club have a requirement for this?"

Safety comes first, and in this case, we try to obtain information from the outside world. Now that Qinghua is in a position, the external pressure is so small, it is the right time and place for them to retreat and cultivate, if sharing personal location is a mandatory requirement, Chen Ning would rather throw away this satellite phone.

"Of course not, everyone in the club is equal, it's individual freedom...... But if you share your location, you can ask for help from nearby club mates when you and your congregate are in danger, and others can ask for your help when they are in danger......"

"Solidarity is the purpose of the club, after all, our biggest threat right now is xenomorphs, and humanity should be united, shouldn't it?"

Chen Ning didn't reply, now, before Qinghua went out, with their strength, the threat of xenos was very small - there wasn't even a single A-class xenomorph in the vicinity.

Therefore, unlike other gathering places, the biggest enemy for Qinghua at this stage is the sinister humans of the same race.

Their well-developed industrial system and advanced technology can easily attract the covetousness of more powerful agglomerations, and limited by population, they do not have the strength to defend their achievements for the time being.

Not everyone is as altruistic as the club initiator claims.

Solidarity is not simple, often the reality is that everyone insists that they are right, and everyone wants to unite others under their banner.

It's as if Bi Nan had only fought with him a few days ago, it doesn't matter if it's right or wrong, it's just about winning or losing.

After a while, Ma Lunman on the other end didn't get a response, and naturally he knew what Chen Ning meant, and he was a little dissatisfied in his heart, but thinking that Chen Ning was not the only person like this, he didn't ramble anymore.

"Well, I'll tell you directly about the rights and obligations of our club members."

"First, discover new people who are not in the club with the strength of the A-level rank or above, and take the initiative to invite the other party to join;"

"Second, actively respond to club members in need and provide assistance within their capacity;"

"Third, the members of the club must not kill each other, but remain united and fight against xenomorphs;"

"Fourth, I was a senior engineer in Jiuquan before the end of the world, and I mastered a set of circum-earth satellites, which can not only support long-range communication of satellite phones, but also shoot and explore the ground situation in real time, not to mention how much it costs to use once, if you contribute to the club, I will meet your relevant needs."

As Ma Lunman spoke, Chen Ning suddenly remembered who he really was.

He is the first human race in recorded history to advance to the S-rank great rank, and in the thirty-second year of the last days, that is, these two years, he will die in battle on the way of the first human attack on the most powerful S+-level xenomorph.

He is also a respectable person, with his own persistence and his own mission, although the way of doing things is different, and the goals he wants to achieve are also different, but he and the left-behind of the arsenal, as well as Chen Ning, have the same beliefs.

"The original intention of establishing the club is to have a platform for everyone to exchange information and support each other, the greater the ability, the greater the responsibility, you must know this, otherwise the direction is wrong, the stronger the stronger the reactionary!"

"yes, I know."
