After throwing the finished lunch box into the garbage bag, Xiaodong quickly stood up, picked up the pliers and broke off the extra section of steel bar.
The current load-bearing column is still 79 meters away and must be completed within five hours, otherwise it will delay the subsequent capping project.
If you can shorten the time for eating, just shorten it. Wouldn’t it be better to twist more steel bars in the time saved?
The captain saw that Xiaodong was already busy, silently put the last bite of rice into his mouth, took the pouring water pipe and started pouring the new alloy along the steel bars.
Compared with the fatigue of the construction team, the medical team is busier at this time.
"Dong Shiyi, three fainted, glucose!"
"Dong Shisan, seven of them fainted, push the bed over!"
"Dong Shiba, someone fell down, please give first aid!"
…
Someone worked continuously for as long as forty hours and finally collapsed on the construction platform.
Some people even fainted during the climb and fell directly from the platform more than ten meters to the ground.
In the past less than two days, 300 soldiers had been killed or injured, and more than 1,000 ordinary construction workers had been killed.
The injury here is not a minor injury. In this era, a cut can no longer be called an injury. Only a broken bone or the inability to continue moving at all can be called an injury.
But even when they were lying on the hospital bed and worried about their lives, they still didn't complain. Some were even worried about whether they would delay the progress of the project.
Compared to Huaxia and Mao Xiong, other bases in disaster areas did not fare so smoothly.
A total of seven bases suffered from flooding this time, and only four large bases were threatened.
In addition to Mao Xiong and Hua Xia, Bati has also built its own large-scale base of eight million people beyond imagination.
Although it is simple and simple, even though there are no wires connected, more than half of the people are working hungry.
But their main facilities briefly surpassed China's progress at the cost of nearly 6,000 deaths.
In contrast, the situation in the Fes underground base, which is located on the other side of the earth and can accommodate a population of 16 million, is a bit sad.
In the first hour after Zhang Bei announced the disaster, nearly 80,000 of the 170,000 workers originally located in the Fes underground base fled.
With insufficient manpower, even if the remaining people try their best, it will be difficult to complete such a huge workload in a short period of time.
After seeing the situation, only 30,000 of the remaining 90,000 people stayed. So far, no one has had a rest. They are all trying their best to save the base from the flood.
They have no logistics, lack of food, and even little fresh water left, but everyone is working hard to build a base.
The brilliance of human nature was vividly displayed at this moment, without any heroic words or expectations of any miracles.
Try your best, at least for them, even if they die in the end, they can have a clear conscience.
Zhang Bei looked at the picture in the Xuanguang Mirror and sighed. He browsed around in the system mall and quickly spent three million points to buy several first-order metaphysics products.
[First-order magic crystal core: Dark Water Shield Technique! 】
This thing is a metaphysical product, and it belongs to the magic category. There is a magic stored in it. As long as the crystal core is crushed, the magic stored here can be released.
The Dark Water Shield lasts for up to seven hours. As long as there is water around it, the entire base can be protected within these seven hours.
The other few crystal nuclei are teleportation magic, which can accurately position and teleport.
Although he can now control objects and fly, because of the speed at which his spiritual power can be restored, he can only cross half of China at most, so he has to stop and wait for his spiritual power to be replenished.
Instead of wasting that time, you might as well use your points to buy a teleportation magic.
This thing is not very expensive, it is less than one-tenth of the price compared to the seven-hour water escape technique.
Time passed in the sweat and blood of countless people. In the last hour before the flood, Pakistan Railway closed the eyes of the deceased who accidentally fell to complete the capping, and then announced that the theme facilities of the underground base were officially completed.
The mechanical passage connecting the underground base to the ground was locked, which also proved that the base was intentionally preserved during this flood.
Fifty minutes after the flood countdown, China announced the completion of the Dongsan underground city theme facilities.
But at the same time, the Ula base that was supposed to be completed at the same time ran into trouble.
"It's stuck, the elevator passage is stuck!"
"Faq, hurry up, we don't have time!"
"You have to go to the ground and move the card owner's things away!"
The team in charge of the mechanical wheel looked at the stone stuck in the door on the monitor, and everyone looked downcast.
If this stone is not removed, it means that floods will flow into the entire underground base along the ground channels.
The length of this passage is nearly 170 meters, and it takes half an hour to go up. Plus moving the stones and restarting the equipment, it is absolutely impossible to come back.
Time did not allow them to think of other solutions. The six people in charge of the ground passage looked at each other and stood up almost at the same time.
"I'll go, I'm the captain!"
"Fart, I was still your superior when I was a soldier. I will carry out your orders!"
"I have never been a soldier, but I am a construction worker. I know how to move this stone as quickly as possible."
…
While several people were arguing, a teenager in the corner of the control room hung the safety rope around his waist as fast as he could in his life, and then pressed the start button.
The strong pulling force of the wheel drove him to slide upward quickly, and the mechanical sound also brought the quarreling people back to their senses.
"Asshole, stop it!"
"Farke!"
"Stop!"
Looking at several strong men who were all his uncles, the young man patted the portable cutting machine on his waist.
"Uncle Rocco, think about your daughter. He is only seven years old and cannot live without a father."
"Brother Slin, your baby is about to be born, you have to go home alive!"
"Uncle Radha, you haven't been home for three years. You said you wanted to go home to see your son."
The young man's words all poked at the softest parts of these strong men's hearts, and their pursuit stopped.
"We can't watch a seventeen-year-old kid die for us, please stop!"
The boy did not stop, but tightened his grip on the safety rope: "I don't have family, and I don't have many friends. You have taught me a lot during this time."
"Davari, live with the faith of the Ula Empire!"
As the rope searched further, the boy's speed increased instantly and he rushed towards the ground.
