Chapter 417: Out of the Mountain

"****, a planet with gravity and mass dozens of times higher than the existing standard, this is simply the coldest joke in the world."

It has been a long time since Night Shadow violently woke Wang Qinian from his decadence. The fat dean also has a deeper understanding of his wife. It's just that when it comes to the topic of gravity and mass, Wang Qinian always unconsciously connects with his body, and there is an illusion that he has become a giant fat and can't move in an instant.

Wars, and even sustaining wars, have largely shifted from the military to the economic realm. It was as if the combat machinery produced in the rear factories was completely overwhelming the manpower of the opposing side. Especially in the history of human warfare in the past, the industrial and economic base has actually pushed military operations from the foreground to the background. Unless the supply produced by factories and oil fields is sustained, the army is a lifeless rabble. To the uninitiated, the ranks of the Takefu are still majestic, but in the case of scientists and rulers who wield power, they are nothing more than dolls on the belts of the transmission.

In Wang Qinian's view, this is exactly what Su Hao and the Xinyan Research Institute are currently encountering.

Gravity and mass can cause quite serious damage to objects produced in different environments. Wang Qinian could conclude that the weapons, food, and clothing owned by Su Hao and Xinyan's troops must have been damaged. Regardless of what happened to the two vanguard forces in the teleportation area, material replenishment must be the biggest problem they need to solve at the moment.

The relationship with the Atlanteans may last a long time. Judging from the available intelligence and information, unless they can receive practical material assistance, Su Hao and Xinyan Institute may have no hope of reversing their disadvantages in a short period of time. Of course, all this is still Wang Qinian's personal speculation, and it is also the consensus of many researchers in the Academy of Sciences.

According to the point of view of human warfare, the economy is the basis for the continuation of war. There are almost 20 basic substances necessary for war: coal for general production, oil for power, cotton, wool and steel for explosives, rubber for transportation, copper for all electrical equipment, nickel for steel and ammunition, lead for ammunition, glycerin and fibrous acetate for explosives, mercury for detonators, aluminum for airplanes, platinum for chemical instruments, asbestos, mica, antimony, manganese, and so on.

It is uncertain whether these substances exist in the world after transmission. There is also no evidence that Su Hao and Xinyan really need them. Wang Qinian could only analyze according to his own understanding and the data obtained from the submarine pyramids, and try his best to produce war materials that conform to the multiple gravitational realm.

The secret factories under the entire Academy of Sciences began to run at full speed.

A large amount of iron ore is mined, repeatedly purified and molecularly polymerized, and further compacted in a special closed vacuum environment to become a special product with the expected density and quality. On this basis, machine tools and generators are further produced.

Wang Qinian wasted no time making other high-end weapons. He keenly captured the predicament faced by Su Hao in a hypergravity environment. The advance troops have no energy, no equipment, and they may have been reduced from high-tech soldiers to primitive people with no clothes. This kind of thing sounds funny, but there are already too many tragic stories of spaceships getting lost in outer space, falling into a wormhole in space, failing all their weapons, being besieged by the savage natives of the local planet, and selling survivors as toys and slaves.

The combat effectiveness of Su Hao and Xinyan's squad is absolutely guaranteed. Aside from not being able to fly, Alpha Evolve is no different from the Superman in the movie. If they were able to refine metal locally and make weapons such as guns, their chances of survival would naturally increase exponentially.

Therefore, what they urgently need at the moment are primitive machine tools and energy generators. With this, a series of production equipment will soon be available, allowing for the creation of completely new, locally adapted production lines.

The secret factory is completely controlled by computers and robots. With just one command, they can deliver the perfect mechanical work.

Wang Qinian never doubted this, and he was able to turn his attention to other aspects.

turned on the contact signal, and the figure of Lao Song soon appeared on the computer screen.

Compared with when he was rescued by Su Hao in Kunming City at the beginning, Lao Song's entire mental outlook and appearance have undergone great changes. He was about 1.9 meters tall, and although his hair was gray, it was short and straight, pointing to the sky, as if it were neatly arranged with dense steel needles. He wears a simple blue canvas overalls, and his cuffs are rolled up high to show off his strong muscles. The wrinkles on the face indicate that he is old, but his eyes are still clear, especially when he laughs, and his neat and white teeth do not look like they are over the age of six, but a strong elder who is in the prime of life, full of life experience, and worthy of respect.

Wang Qinian and Lao Song have dealt with each other many times. He knew that the other party was Su Hao's most trusted "worker bee", and he was also the third person in the entire "hive" except for Su Hao and Xinyan.

"Dear Dean, is there anything I would like to serve?"

This sentence has a dual nature of goodwill and ridicule. Lao Song is not old-fashioned, and Wang Qinian likes to use young people as jokes from time to time. The two men are the same age and have many things in common, which is a natural prerequisite for being good friends.

"I need your help with something on hand."

Wang Qinian was not hypocritical, and bluntly stated his worries about the current environment where Su Hao and the Xinyan team were located, as well as the fact that the secret factory of the Academy of Sciences was producing high-density and gravity-related equipment. As for the aspects that need the help of the "hive", it is the inspiration that Wang Qinian got from the teleportation diagram inside.

"I suspect that the Earth Realm is not as simple as we think."

As he spoke, the old fat man's mind kept skimming over the terrible images of the undersea pyramid computer displaying: "The information I have obtained is incomplete. I'm not sure if I can get more from somewhere else. But either way, you have to give it a try. ”

Lao Song on the screen put away his kind smile, and his expression became serious and serious: "Oh! What are you referring to? ”

Wang Qinian quickly switched to more than a dozen locked coordinates on the computer: "I need you to send a search force to conduct a detailed exploration of these places." I will send the relevant professional technicians to meet you as soon as possible. It is better to schedule it quickly, no later than 12 noon tomorrow. ”

The coordinates are not exact, just an approximate range. Search targets include pyramids in the Egyptian desert, abandoned cities of the ancient Maya, Easter Island with mysterious stone sculptures, and the Shennongjia region of Chinese mainland. These areas have all had very strange and mysterious events. Now that all the Atlanteans and "Emissaries" on Earth have been killed, it may be possible to find some information that can be exploited during the search again.

Lao Song stared at the coordinates and numbers listed on the screen, and asked calmly, "Do you think these places hide some kind of unknown secret?" About the Atlanteans? Or is it another world? ”

"I don't know what to do."

Wang Qinian said frankly: "This is just my intuition. ”

"Huh! It is much more difficult to search now than in peacetime. ”

Lao Song shook his head and smiled bitterly: "With all due respect, I think your intuition may not be accurate. These places are points of mystery that are recognized by all. Since the age of civilization, I am afraid that hundreds of explorations of different scales have been carried out before and after. There is already a wealth of information available to analyse and describe them. What's more, it's a time of war, and we're afraid we won't be able to get more ......."

"Nope! No! No! This was unlike any previous search. ”

Wang Qinian hurriedly interrupted Lao Song's words: "I need to search more carefully and carefully. I need you to open the interior of the Egyptian pyramids, use engineering means to break through the foundation cover of the Mayan city, and search the inside. Ignore the damn ancient heritage regulations, no one can stop your work except mutated creatures. Blasting, demolition, crushing...... Whatever means are used. There must be something hidden inside them. You know that with the presence of external obstacles, there is simply no way to explore the interior. Lao Tzu had long wanted to tear down the Pyramid of Khufu piece by piece, but it was in the way of the damned United Nations and the Egyptian government. If you can expose the inside in the most direct way, the gains will definitely be much greater than you think. ”

Looking at Wang Qinian, who was full of excitement, Lao Song still nodded helplessly: "Okay!" I'm going to arrange manpower and organize a search force. Tomorrow before 12 noon, meet at the designated location. ”

……

Su Hao didn't find anything he was looking for in Suan Kacama Village. He just used this place as a temporary base, and sent five "worker bees" to protect all the villagers as they went to Molizaka Village the next day. A few days later, the 200 "worker bees" who received the order arrived at Su'an Kakama Village as promised and accepted Su Hao's command.

As the original logistics base, the location of the village of Moli Zaka is still a secret. Even for Meng Qi, who had already sworn allegiance to himself, Su Hao did not reveal any news there. Tong Yanfeng is the highest military and political chief there, and with the cooperation of the priest of Vila Toraki, the current task of Moli Zaka Village is to continue to cultivate and produce more food.

Under the leadership of Meng Qi, Su Hao and his "worker bees" left Su'an Kakama Village and walked towards the plains outside the mountain range.

This is the power range of the Golden Card Country, and it is also one of the seven countries on the continent of Rabangka.

The city of Malen sits in the middle of a huge basin. The rivers here are abundant in water and irrigate the land on both sides of the river into fertile fields. The blurred outline of the city on the horizon is rather rough, and the low-rise houses are nowhere near the skyscrapers of the earth, but there is a sense of calm and solemnity that brings back to peace.

The crops in the fields are mostly species such as rice and wheat. It is only in the low-lying areas near the riverbed that you can see the large leaves of the "Sok" tubers. In the distant hills there are herds of grazing livestock. They are similar in size and shape to those of cattle on Earth, except that their fur is more colorful in color and grain, and their heads have larger corners and sharper tips.

Meng Qi got enough clothes in a merchant inn outside the city. Su Hao dressed up with almost indescribable joy. It's a strange feeling to go without clothes for a long time, and shorts sewn from mutant human skin are simply a terrible shackle. If you had to find something similar to it from the products of the earth, it would be the chastity belt that is on the oversized side.

The walls of the city of Maren are about thirty meters high. According to Monchi, this is already a remarkable architectural masterpiece on the continent of Rabangka. Of course, there is still a certain gap compared to the capital of Jinka, but as an important city close to the border region of the Central Mountains, the walls of this height are enough to make it the strongest fortress.

When he brought Su Hao and the others into Maren City, Meng Qi and his party attracted a lot of attention.

This is largely because of the looks and appearance of Su Hao and others. Together with Su Hao, all the "worker bees" have been transformed by black particles.

Among the many "worker bees" who followed Su Hao into the passage, Kang Yongzhi was a rather alternative figure. He was young, destined to still have a close association with words like "handsome" at the age of twenty. Compared with other cheerful companions, Kang Yongzhi seems quiet and shy a lot of the time. This situation is actually the most direct manifestation of poor talk.

Like many members of the "swarm", Kang Yongzhi has also experienced a terrible viral storm. The mutation or death of his relatives in front of him one after another has already made his brain indifferent, and he has completely forgotten some happy things in the course of life. He was thin, especially the cheekbones on his face were particularly prominent, the bridge of his nose was high, and his lips were very thin, almost bloodless, but had a dead white like a corpse. It is only when he is particularly interested in a certain object or thing that a faint light flashes in the depths of his eyes.

The guards in front of the gates of Maren were several soldiers in simple leather armor. With spears in their arms, they leaned against the city gate and gossiped boredly. Whenever someone walks in front of him, a pair of bloodthirsty and fierce eyes always release a malicious gaze.

The military system of the Kingdom of Jinka is similar to that of the other countries on the continent of Rabangka, a mixture of free civilians and slaves. Among them, the elite of the army is, of course, composed of civilians from all countries. Most of them are low-class citizens who have lost their property and are extremely poor, hoping to gain merit through war and return to their original social status through plunder. Civilian soldiers are the backbone of the armies of nations and the most widespread source of generals and officers.

Slaves belonged to the largest group in number and group on the continent of Labanca. They don't have any private property and no personal security. The situation of the army is slightly better than that of the outside world, at least the officers do not wantonly kill slave soldiers, but every time there is a battle, the slave soldiers always rush to the front, with almost no protection, and the weapons and equipment are extremely inferior. They are only responsible for fighting, and after victory, they have no share in plundering enemy cities. It was the privilege of civilian soldiers and officers, nobles. If they are convicted of running away or behaving poorly during the battle, the only fate for a slave soldier is to be killed in public and the corpse on display.

Meng Qi was familiar with the soldiers guarding the city gates. Over the past decade or so, it has spent a lot of money, gifts, and women to raise the officers and soldiers defending the city into fat pigs. The purpose is just to be able to make these greedy bastards collect a little less tax, and can quietly help themselves at a critical time.

Meng Qi walked at the front of the team as usual, and greeted every soldier guarding the city warmly. It took a few bottles of wine from the cart and distributed them diligently. The grim-looking soldiers accepted it calmly, and the expressions on their faces gradually became softer. Especially when the cork is uncorked and a few sips of strong wine are in the stomach, words and actions become more unscrupulous.

This liquor is a brew of the tuber of "Sok". It is not made purely from plant-based ingredients, but with an animal ingredient that resembles a large earthworm. As is customary on mainland Rabangka, the large earthworm is usually found in graveyards with a high concentration of corpses. It prefers dark, damp environments, has no teeth, and feeds only on pus from rotting corpses. Therefore, the large earthworm is equivalent to a live fleshy enzyme. Experienced brewers can always find them in the graveyards, and they dig up large earthworms, chop them directly into minced meat, mix fresh flesh with steamed sock tubers, and serve them in huge clay vats, ferment them, and make wine.

The real name of this thing is actually "corpse wine". It's a name that is unappetizing, let alone tasting. Merchants always have the power to turn decay into magic. They directly skipped the key to making wine from corpse earthworms, and named it "red wine" after the red flesh. Of course, when it comes to sale, the bottle always has a beautiful petal label attached to it. This is a plant endemic to the continent of Labanca, with a rich color and aroma of flowers.

The "red wine" is very high, and the natives of the Central Mountains have an inescapable craze for alcohol. The soldiers defending the city were similarly attracted to the strong alcohol, their nerves began to become numb and thick, and their eyes became evil.

When Kang Yongzhi passed by a soldier, he caught the attention of the other party.

It was a strong man with a shaved head, broad shoulders, and particularly strong muscles. I don't know what Lu Dao is for, it feels that Kang Yongzhi, who has just walked by his side, suddenly exudes a very special alternative charm. It feels strange, like a man walking down the street and suddenly having a mysterious yearning for someone of the opposite sex like his first love. Of course, the other party may not be a beauty at all, and even the appearance can be said to be ugly, but the appearance can never understand the brain's thinking, and it cannot be explained that the genitals in the crotch of the pants will have an inexplicable erection.
