The high-speed rail has one locomotive and one carriage. This is Liu Wei'an's special car.
Within the "Peace Army", normal order has long been restored. Except that there is no prosperity before the end, land transportation is smoother than before the end. Before the apocalypse, there were often traffic jams. Now, there is no need to worry about traffic jams.
Outside the window, the scenery was flying backwards rapidly, and the car was very quiet, without a trace of noise.
Liu Wei'an was reading a document intently, which was about refining materials. The origin of the Ping An Army has a lot to do with materials. Initially, Dr. Lu Zhangyu relied on dilapidated machinery to create new weapons. Improved winning rate.
The "Jiuzhou Chamber of Commerce" took a fancy to new weapons and traded with the Ping'an Army. With the material resources of the "Jiuzhou Chamber of Commerce", the Ping'an Army survived the most difficult time. Since then, the Ping An Army has been committed to the research of new weapons, and each generation has become more powerful.
Of course, this is also related to the environment. Zombies are becoming more and more powerful, and weapons will be at a disadvantage if they cannot keep up. In the past, there were only zombies below level 1.0, and not many above level 2.0. Now, there are basically zombies above level 2.0, and zombies of level 3.0 appear from time to time. If the weapons are still the same, they will not be able to deal with zombies.
The arsenal of "Ping An Army" has worked very hard, but the upgrade of weapons still cannot keep up with the evolution of zombies. If the Ping An soldiers themselves were not making progress, there would be no need to fight the war and just wait to die.
Constant self-improvement is a valuable quality of every Ping An warrior. Researchers worked tirelessly to extract a never-before-seen substance from the bones of the abyss monster. Weapons added with this substance can increase their sharpness by 30%-38%. However, there is a drawback. This substance can damage the metal structure.
Normal weapons, without external damage, can be used for decades or even hundreds of years without decaying, but weapons added with this substance will decay in up to three years. If used, no more than 12 You have to change it every month.
From a common sense point of view, this technology is good, because under the current situation, the average service life of a weapon is 6 months, and there is no chance to wait until retirement.
It was scrapped. Fighting with zombies every day, the weapons were consumed very quickly.
Elephants have to scrap a weapon in almost every battle.
But Liu Wei'an also has concerns. At present, the abyss monsters are still in hiding, and the number of them that emerge is very small. The main threat now is zombies. Before the zombie crisis is resolved, if you rashly deal with the abyss monsters, the abyss monsters will be enraged. , the Ping An Army will face attacks from both sides at the same time. At that time, the Ping An Army may be destroyed.
In order to increase the power of weapons and offend the monsters in the abyss, is it worth it? The people below are divided into two groups. One group thinks it is worth it. Sharpening the knife will not waste time chopping wood. The weapons are sharp and will be of great help in destroying monsters. The other group thinks it is not worth it. , angered the abyss monsters, and the danger was too great for the Ping An Army. There are still a few fence-sitters who feel that weapons need to be upgraded, but the time has not yet come.
Liu Wei'an threw the document aside and picked up the second document, which was about vaccines. Ordinary people can increase their resistance by getting vaccinated. This vaccine is powerful and has benefits even for ordinary evolvers.
This is definitely a good thing and needs to be fully promoted. However, the cost of the vaccine is very high and cannot be afforded by the current financial resources of the Ping An Army. In addition, the physique of ordinary people who have been vaccinated will strengthen a lot, far reaching Not to the level of an evolver, but extending your life by a few years is possible, then the problem arises.
What do ordinary people do when they live so long? Eighty percent of ordinary people contribute less value to society than they consume. An extra day of living means a loss of one point, and an extra year of living means an extra year of loss. This is obviously not worth it.
The third document is about the establishment of the trading area. It is unrealistic to liberate the entire Han Dynasty in a short period of time. The so-called unblocking is specifically to defeat all enemies and eliminate all zombies, possibly including abyss monsters. With the Ping An Army alone, It is impossible to do it with the current strength. The current situation is coexisting with other forces. It is very important for forces to exchange their supplies. The Ping An Army has the best security. The establishment of a trade zone will easily have an impact on the situation. Some people think that trade will do more harm than good. .
Liu Wei'an didn't read the fourth document because Bai Ling told her that it was about finding the hidden sect. Liu Wei'an wanted to go further and longer in this troubled world and must unite.
All the forces that can be united, then the Hidden World Sect is a very important force. There are basically masters in the sect. Anyone who walks out casually has the strength to kill the bronze armored corpse.
Some sects are even more powerful than the Ping'an Army. If he can get the recognition and support of these forces, his future path will be much easier, just like Lord Linghu and Bai Zige. Liu Wei'an admitted that Bai Ling's words made sense, but for some reason, he felt so disgusted with this approach that he never took action.
"How old is Old Dixian?" Huang Yueyue came over with a cup of coffee. She had never used the coffee machine on the high-speed rail, and it took her a long time to figure out how to use it.
"I don't know, he's very old!" Liu Wei'an was stunned for a moment. He had never thought about this problem, and he couldn't tell it from the appearance of the old man.
"Why didn't the zombies attack him?" Huang Yueyue asked again.
"When you see Old Earth Immortal next time, go ask and see if he will answer you." Liu Wei'an took a sip of coffee and felt a little bitter. He glanced at Huang Yueyue subconsciously. His thin body was plumper than before. After wearing it a little, the chest was bulging, and the thin fabric was vaguely visible, giving people an urge to grab a handful.
Just add some milk!
"I'm a little girl, I guess... people won't pay attention to me." Huang Yueyue was very unsure.
When the high-speed train arrived at the station, the military jeep was parked at the exit. Because he was not in a hurry, Liu Wei'an chose a jeep with a larger space. This kind of jeep is comfortable to drive and has been reinforced. When encountering danger, the survival rate is much greater than other vehicles.
Huang Yueyue was sitting in the passenger seat, holding a camera and taking pictures at the roadside. When asked what she was doing with these pictures, she replied: as a souvenir.
Liu Wei'an ignored her and just drove. Two hours later, he arrived under the Bodhi tree and what he saw surprised him. Under the bodhi tree, a Taoist in gray robe was playing chess with the old man Earth Immortal.
Old Earth Immortal still had the same indifferent expression, but Liu Wei'an noticed the tension between his brows and his chess moves.
