My Post-Apocalyptic Shelter Levels Up Infinitely! - Chapter 1358
[1348. Chapter 1330 The front lines gather together and go deep behind enemy lines!]
To put it bluntly, this thing is actually two different things from the subway that Blue Star once eliminated.
Although everyone’s operating principles are the same, there is at least a few hundred years of difference in basic technology.
Before the development of air vehicles in the pre-war era, the underground maglev railways in major cities on Blue Star could already reach speeds of about 800 kilometers per hour.
But now the subway built by dwarves has a maximum speed of only 70km.
Through this, we can roughly judge the scientific research strength and scientific research direction of the dwarves.
What they are not following is the limit of a single human technology, but is pursuing the integration of multi-directional biotechnology and magical technology.
“Boss, are we going before Lord Su comes over?” Tuoba Chi came over and asked. He actually felt that Yehu might be greedy for credit.
Although these monsters don’t appear to be very strong, they don’t seem to be very smart either.
But just like the middle-aged man transformed from the Demon Soul Clan, he can withstand all kinds of torture.
Who knows if they have any other special abilities?
And once inside the enemy, if something unexpected happens, support will not be able to arrive in time.
“Can we wait? Can the opportunity wait for us?” Liehu glared at Tuoba Chi, of course he knew what he was worried about.
Going into danger alone is not something a smart person would do, but looking back at the development history of Pingtan Shelter in Qinggang City, which rise and progress was not based on huge risks?
From the beginning to the rise, every decision of Hunter Tiger is like walking on thin ice. If you are not careful, you may fall into a point of no return.
But it is precisely because of the courage to face risks and seize the fleeting opportunities that Pingtan Shelter can grow into the king of the western suburbs and one of the three pillars of Qinggang City.
“The bones are so strong, aren’t they? I want to see if the bomb can kill him?”
There was no way to get a breakthrough from the Demon Soul Clan.
Any further delay would only make the dwarf suspicious.
Now that the other party had given him such an excellent opportunity, Yehu didn’t even plan to send anyone to follow Ji Wuming to the dwarf territory, but planned to go into battle himself.
The only problem is that his size is a bit conspicuous, and the conversation between the two cannot begin.
If there is any communication problem in the middle, without Xiao Yang, it will be easy for something bad to happen.
After clearing his mind, Liehu paused and found Xiao Yang: “I don’t feel comfortable sending others to follow Ji Wuming to the dwarf territory. I plan to go by myself. Do you dare to go with me?”
“What’s wrong with this? And the task given to me by the lord is to accompany Mr. Hunter Tiger.” Xiao Yang replied without thinking.
When they go there, they don’t just drop bombs, they have to wait until the rear army is ready.
If you don’t even dare to go there now, wouldn’t you be even more scared of the direct battlefield behind?
“Okay, let’s get ready and set off in the afternoon!” Liehu raised his brows, feeling that the blood in his body was boiling.
A familiar feeling came over me again, but this time the target was changed from humans to monsters.
I can’t tell what it feels like.
But he understands that after this battle, no one will question his ability.
The man who crawled out from the dead countless times is coming back again!
Five p.m.
Only three sections of the carriages behind the subway have been preserved, and they were filled with all kinds of goods, including gold mined during this period and some scattered metal ores.
Many of them were collected from ordinary civilians. They are not valuable in terms of value, but their main purpose is to confuse the eyes and buy time.
As long as the dwarves can focus on these things, enough time can be left to plant the bomb.
And in order to prevent the dwarf from becoming suspicious, apart from Xiao Yang, the translator, the only two people following the car who could fight were Tuoba Chi and He Chen.
Everyone’s weapons and energy stone bombs have been stored in storage modules. It is almost impossible to discover them without the dwarves knowing this information.
Boom, boom.
There was a dull sound from the subway head, and the carriage began to slide along the rails.
In the deep and mysterious culvert, there is darkness all around. There is no lighting to dispel the thick darkness. Silence and darkness seem to swallow up everything. Only the roar of the subway echoes in the empty tunnel, like a lonely wandering soul here. Wandering in the underworld.
The only light source comes from the searchlight in front of the subway head, which casts a pale and firm beam of light, like a sharp sword carving a path in the darkness.
Relying on this weak light, the passengers can barely see clearly what is going on in each culvert.
The cold stone walls and rough surfaces all show the unique style of dwarf craftsmanship.
“Is it so simple?”
Xiao Yang put his head out of the carriage and looked back and forth with a flashlight.
This underground railway transportation line built by the dwarves is very different from the one on earth.
Compared with those well-designed underground railways on earth that have artificial escape passages, the culvert here is only four meters high and three meters wide, which can barely accommodate the subway whizzing by.
If someone with claustrophobia comes here, they may get sick on the spot.
And in such an environment, once a crash or any other form of accident occurs, the consequences will be disastrous.
It is almost impossible for ordinary people to escape from this narrow, dark culvert.
However, this design may also be a way for the dwarves to prevent enemies from attacking through the subway.
At a critical moment, the bombs planted during construction can be detonated to collapse the underground railway.
Then no matter how many enemies there are, they will all be completely buried in this bottomless underground world.
“Boss, the first checkpoint is ahead!”
The subway drove forward dully for a while. As the speed began to slow down, Ji Wuming quickly stood up.
In the past, following the middle-aged Demon Soul Clan, he didn’t need to worry about these levels at all, and he didn’t need to pay attention to what these people said.
Of course, even if you heard it, you wouldn’t understand it. The dwarves and the demon souls communicated in a language other than Chinese.
Now that it was him who had to explain the problem of a middle-aged man from the Demon Soul Clan, it was still a bit uneasy.
“You can just say it safely. If anything goes wrong, I will be responsible.”
Liehu sat calmly on the sofa, his eyes slightly narrowed, and then he watched the changes outside the window with a faint light, as if everything was under control.
The first inspection level was quite similar to the wide platform they walked down from the abandoned warehouse, but it was slightly smaller in scale.
The only difference between the two is that this place is like an underground city, with rows of simple but sturdy wooden and stone houses built on the platform in an orderly manner.
The center of the platform is a wide square with thick stone slabs on the ground. There are some fire pots scattered around the square. The firelight jumps in the darkness, bringing a touch of warmth and light to this underground world.
From time to time, you can see the busy figures of the dwarves, either carrying supplies or sitting around the fire pot talking. Their rough faces look even more ugly under the light of the fire.
There is a relatively tall building on the side near the culvert, which is the first level.
There are almost eighty dwarves stationed here, and more than half of them are responsible for checkpoint inspection.
“What’s going on? You’re the only one here, where’s Kus?”
A dwarf team leader wearing animal skins took advantage of the subway to stop and walked up with a gloomy face.
Behind him followed a dozen dwarfs holding weapons.
The dwarves filed into the carriage at the back, and from time to time there was the sound of cargo being turned over.
Several dwarfs also noticed the accompanying people and surrounded them with vigilant faces, as if they would take action directly after discovering a problem.
“Your city wants me to come over. My territory can’t be deserted, right?”
Ji Wuming shrugged: “I asked him to replace me as the lord for two days, and then let him come over to explain the situation when I return.”
” Is this happening?” Captain Tiepi frowned.
He did know that City Lord Crespo invited Ji Wuming to visit Black Rock City.
But I haven’t heard of Kus taking his place, so I’ll take it for a while.
“Of course there is such a thing. Is it possible that I have to ask Lord Crespo for instructions on everything? Don’t forget that we are in a cooperative relationship. I am not unilaterally loyal to you.” Ji Wuming clapped his hands. : “Come here, bring me the gift I brought to Captain Kus. Will you all take the initiative?”
“By the way, get two more pieces of gold!”
Blatant bribery is nothing new here among the dwarves.
The good ones of these guys don’t learn much, but the bad ones learn very quickly.
If the dwarves want to get higher, they have to bribe their superiors. If they want to get better resource points, they have to bribe with resources.
Wait until Tuoba Chi brought the gift bag that he had prepared and handed it over.
Ironhide originally wanted to worry about Kus not coming, but when he heard the clanging sound coming from the heavy gift bag, his attention was immediately drawn to it: “Human, don’t even think about playing tricks!”
he said .
, Tiepi’s body was quite honest, he quickly took the gift bag and opened the top knot.
There are fist-sized gold nuggets inside, three of them!
There was a sharp contrast between this and usually when Likus would only give him a piece when he came over.
“With so much, are you getting rich?” Tiepi said greedily.
“Otherwise, the reason I went to talk to Mr. Crespo this time is about cooperation. Follow me, and you will be indispensable in the future.” Ji Wuming bared his white teeth and touched his arms twice more. He took out a piece of gold ore of the same size and slapped it on Tiepi.
“Stop worrying about these little details. The more serious you are, the less good you will get!”
“What did you say? Are you threatening me?” Tiepi was still in a good mood after getting the gold mine, but after hearing these words I felt a little unhappy after that.
In the past, he basically didn’t talk to Ji Wuming, and he didn’t know that this human being was so courageous.
But that’s right, to be able to cooperate with the dwarves at all costs, this guy is not an ordinary person.
“There are many dwarves who want to take your place, don’t you believe it?” Ji Wuming sarcastically said, his eyes passing over the dwarves who were checking the goods behind him.
Tiepi glanced back subconsciously following his gaze, and his face suddenly darkened.
In the eyes of these dwarfs, he saw greed that could not be concealed.
If there was a chance to replace him, these dwarfs would never hesitate at all.
“Believe me, given the importance of my future cooperation with Mr. Crespo, I can change the person in your position at any time. The person standing here can be an iron sheet, a hammer, a shovel, anyone. Any dwarf can do it. Guess what the next dwarf will do? Will he stop me here like you?”
Ji Wuming acted so arrogantly that even Xiao Yang who was listening behind him couldn’t help but sweat.
However, the dwarves seemed to take this trick. Team leader Tiepi’s mood was obviously a bit wrong, but he never showed it. Instead, he was frightened.
In fact, he was able to sit in this position not because of his outstanding ability, but because he bribed a sum of money to go up to the consul Nanni.
Relying on bribery, he got the fat job of captain of the checkpoint team.
Although he has paid back his money during this period of time, he did not come here just to make money back!
And the other party was right. If the cooperation was agreed upon, Crespo really wouldn’t mind replacing another dwarf captain with this fat job.
“If you add another piece, I will search you and check you before you can pass.”
“Are you looking for death, are you so greedy?” Ji Wuming laughed loudly, lowered his body and patted Tiepi’s shoulder.
In Tiepi’s somewhat unhappy eyes, he magically pulled out another gold mine.
The latter’s expression softened a lot and he waved to the dwarf behind him.
Although the dwarves who did not receive any bribes felt unhappy, they could not disobey Ironhide’s orders.
Several gold-eating lizards, about one meter long, used for searching were brought in.
Since the weapons used by humans are basically made of metal, as long as the lizard does not smell the smell of metal, the threat will be greatly reduced.
After taking the lizards and sniffing them one by one, Ji Wuming, Xiao Yang, Tuoba Chi and Pingchen were all fine.
But when they arrived at the hunting tiger, the gold-eating lizard seemed to have encountered a natural enemy and did not dare to step forward.
“Who is he?” Tiepi took half a step back cautiously and touched the weapon at his waist.
“My bodyguard, do you know bodyguard, just to prevent some blind people.”
“You can, but he can’t pass.” Tiepi’s mind turned and he pointed at Yehu and laughed.
Even if Kus comes over, he still has the initiative.
But at this time, Ji Wuming was completely in control.
There was no way to stop Ji Wuming from letting him pass, so it would be okay to stop this weirdo who couldn’t detect threats, right?
“You”
Ji Wuming was stunned for a moment and was about to speak.
But at this moment, the red giant on the seat suddenly stood up, and his big palm-like hands were like lightning, reaching forward to grab.
Tiepi, who had not yet reacted, was like a little chicken, being caught and raising his hands.
“What are you doing, looking for death?”
The dwarves behind Ironhide were startled and quickly raised their weapons against the hunting tiger.
However, Xiehu moved faster, already holding his hand on Tiepi’s throat, opening and closing his mouth, spitting out dull threats.
“Idiot, should you live and continue to be the squad leader, or should you die and let them take over?”
“Choose.”
