My Post-Apocalyptic Shelter Levels Up Infinitely! - Chapter 1470
[1461. Chapter 1438: Grain collection encounters obstacles, divine power fluctuation detector!]
Negative.
As autumn is about to arrive in the New World, there will be more rain, with brief showers every two or three. Although this brings a hint of coolness to soothe fatigue, it also makes all the major territories tense at all times, not daring to slack off.
At this point, everyone is afraid that all efforts will be in vain.
In order to prevent the rain situation from expanding and causing immeasurable losses to crops that are about to mature, thus affecting the year’s harvest.
Even if it is just a sporadic rain, the territory managers will frequently organize disaster relief work.
Everyone didn’t have to do anything but stay in the wooden house next to the field, waiting for the rain to fall and then waiting for the rain to stop.
It’s boring, and it makes people dare not relax at all.
Looking down from a high altitude.
Large tracts of fields were reclaimed by hardworking humans, and most of the land was grown with wheat, which has strong cold-resistance.
With the nourishment of rain, the wheat seedlings grew particularly lush. Now they are golden yellow, like golden carpets spread on the earth, which is very beautiful.
In addition, after experiencing the frost disaster, corn was also favored by most survivors.
This crop, which has strong resistance to harsh environments and does not require much soil fertility, is most suitable for wasteland environments.
Even though most territories were planted a little later due to seeds, the fields had already reached a certain size at this time.
Many of the plants are tall and straight, with broad and thick leaves, and the corn cobs hanging on them are gradually becoming full.
It is foreseeable that after the autumn harvest, humans in the wasteland will open a new chapter!
7 o’clock in the morning.
The gate to the external checkpoint of the Golden Giant Eagle Territory was opened on time, and ships carrying supplies rowed out one after another.
Mainly selling in-demand industrial products, from time to time when a corner is blown up by the wind, you can see brand new machines wrapped in tarpaulins.
Guards at the checkpoints would inspect the ships from time to time to check the delivery notes and cargo quantities.
But in reality, most of them just go through the motions, going through the basic process without any detailed inspection.
The few that were stopped were either because the two federal territories were not on good terms with each other and each arranged people to annoy the other.
Or there is friction between the territories that receive support from outside, and they use this method to confront each other.
As soon as the checkpoint was opened, six or seven ships almost collided with each other. The people guarding the ships immediately stood on the bow and started cursing at each other.
“What happened up front? Is there going to be another fight?”
Still stuck in a large ship on the way out of customs, Musk raised his head with a tired look and looked around.
In the past, when natural disasters were frequent and threats were numerous, the relations between the various federal territories were still relatively harmonious.
But as the death tide came, the situation gradually stabilized, and some unnecessary disputes inevitably broke out.
Thirty-six Union Territories.
Every territory has a huge demand for talent and resources, and no one is willing to give up their share.
Whenever a dispute arises, it becomes a huge quarrel.
In order to prevent the situation from escalating, the federal territories have secretly reached a rule.
If there is any problem, use the territory you support outside to speak, and don’t fight internally.
However, since the sizes of the territories supported externally are different, how can we have a fair fight?
Such foolish behavior made the dispute even more chaotic, and even affected some territories that had no intention of participating in the war.
“It seems so. I’ll go out and take a look.”
Guo Buluo walked out with a frown on his face, and soon came back with the news.
The Golden Eagle Territory, the largest federal territory of the Golden Giant Eagle, the Giant Wave Territory supported by the federal lord Frutos, and the Mountain Eagle Territory supported by the second largest Golden Horse Federation are in conflict.
Golden Eagle believes that among the support materials brought out by Golden Horse, there are some important machinery that are explicitly prohibited from being leaked.
Once this kind of machinery is allowed to spread outside, it will be easy for the entire federation to lose its technological leadership and the industrial products produced will have no market.
Jin Ma fought back, believing that Jin Ying had already shared some important technologies with the Julang Territory.
They are only providing finished products now, and the materials produced will be recycled, so how could such a consequence happen?
Besides.
Important machinery cannot be leaked. That is the Golden Eagle Territory’s own rule, not the Golden Giant Eagle Federation’s rule.
What right do you have to control me?
You won’t let me take over the two territories, and I won’t let you. If we block the entire river, no one can escape.
This scene is very rare.
In the past, the federal territories with lower rankings would use this method to disgust each other in competition.
Now that it has evolved between the first and the second, it can’t help but give rise to some other ideas.
“Shit. It seems that the competition among these guys is getting more and more intense. I wonder how many of the thirty-six territories of the Federation will be left in a month or two.”
Musk shrugged, feeling helpless about the situation.
When the nest is overturned, no eggs can remain intact.
His territory is one of the few territories that does not participate in the competition, but sooner or later this trend will affect him.
It’s just that the ‘Tyrael Territory’ supported by Tesla Territory is no match for Julang and Shanying.
If we really talk about external support for territory, I’m afraid we won’t be able to compete for even a tiny share.
Not long.
Just then, the people behind became anxious and joined the battle, pointing at and cursing the people escorting the ships from the two territories.
The person in charge of the Golden Eagle and Golden Horse snorted coldly and reluctantly ordered his men to sail away.
Their goal has been achieved.
Thirty-six federal territories are too many for the Golden Eagle, which needs to enter a period of rapid development.
The number must be reduced immediately so that resources can be allocated more rationally.
The battle between the Golden Eagle Awards and the Golden Horse Awards was the prelude to this split and merger.
It’s just that many people present didn’t realize it.
“Go, don’t delay any longer.”
Seeing that the dark clouds brewing in the sky seemed to be getting thicker, the fleets of various territories rushed out at full speed.
All electric drive.
The New World’s oil resources are shockingly scarce. Even though the Golden Eagle arranged nearly a hundred experienced exploration teams, after a long search, they only managed to discover two oil fields with limited reserves.
However, the cost of extracting this oil is so high that it is simply prohibitive.
In contrast, the New World has extremely abundant solar energy resources, especially in the southern plate, where sunlight has become an almost inexhaustible treasure trove of energy.
After years of development, battery technology is no longer an unattainable high-tech.
This makes it possible for even the smallest federal territories to build semi-automated battery assembly plants to convert sunlight into electricity for daily use.
Although the production of batteries is no longer a problem, the consumption of this new energy source is still somewhat expensive for ordinary residents.
Most people would rather take a shower and go to bed as soon as the sun sets than stay up late with a light on.
Four ships with Tesla logos left the checkpoint, adjusted their direction, and headed towards Tyrael’s territory.
They are all large ships with a deep draft, which is enough to show that the things on board are not light.
Occasionally, the river breeze would lift up the tarpaulin. If there were anyone who knew what was on board, they would surely discover that what was loaded on the ship was the ‘T-1’ battery production process module newly developed by Tesla Territory.
From slurry mixing to coating, and then to roller slitting, winding, assembly and injection.
If placed in the Golden Eagle territory, it would definitely be considered contraband, which is why Musk personally brought people to escort it.
However, his purpose of going out today was obviously not just to deliver the machine.
As soon as they passed the checkpoint, Guobuluo led his men to carry out a huge machine half a person’s height from the cabin.
The top of the machine is filled with densely packed antennas, a bit like the radio stations used for communication in the last century.
The operation method is also extremely retro, using pure mechanical buttons.
After a burst of crackling clicks, Guobuluo put on headphones and began to listen carefully to the sounds transmitted back by the machine.
Musk stood aside, feeling a little anxious and a little nervous.
The full name of this device is ‘Divine Power Wave Detector’. It sounds a bit anti-scientific, but its principle can form its own set of explainable logic.
After research, it was found that those mysterious objects collected from the outside world that are incomprehensible to humans are all contaminated with a special energy fluctuation.
Although the energy fluctuations of each object are different, what humans are best at is finding similarities in differences.
In the future ruins, Guobuluo, the “Father of Gods”, used this special fluctuation to study the laws of the ruins and found the ruins containing the divinity, thus paving the way for mankind to become a god.
Now that the time has been advanced a lot, things still haven’t changed much.
With the unstinting support of Tesla Territory, the detector was successfully manufactured, nearly two years ahead of schedule.
Beep.
Beep.
The detector made a uniform beeping sound and did not detect any energy fluctuation response in the surrounding area.
“Why is there no response?”
Musk pursed his lips, looking very serious.
The detector has a maximum detection range of sixty kilometers and can detect wave reactions by sending and receiving signals.
If it was functioning normally, it should be able to hear the signals from the special items inside the Golden Eagle, instead of having no response like it is now.
But just after he finished speaking, the even dripping sound changed.
Drop, drop, drop.
The dripping sound became faster and began to sound regularly.
After listening for a while, Guobuluo couldn’t help but smile happily.
“Mr. Musk, we succeeded. I deliberately adjusted the sensitivity of the wave detection to a very low level, and buried the object that sends the signal underground, just to maximize the ability of the divine power detector.
Now we don’t need to receive a lot of signals to react, so even if something is buried deep or there is an obstruction in the middle, we can still calculate the location through weak signals!”
“Is that so?” Musk was stunned, and finally smiled.
Finally, there is good news.
Although the principle of the detector is simple, it does not mean that it is easy to make the detector.
The fluctuations contained in those special items are not released all the time, but are fleeting. There are only a few special time periods every day to transmit information to the outside world, and the information cannot stay in the air for a long time.
This requires the detector to capture this information in the complex signals as soon as possible in order to form an adequate response.
Then judge the strength of the mysterious item based on the strength of the dripping sound.
The stronger the beeping sound, the stronger the mysterious object detected.
“Hmm, it’s gone. It’s a little different from our previous data. It seems that the fluctuations do decay according to the distance.”
After about half a minute, the signal received by the detector slowly disappeared.
The current detection object is a spear that will send out a wave signal on time at eight o’clock every day.
If it is a close-range detection, the signal will last for nearly ten minutes before disappearing.
But this time it only lasted seven minutes, which means that the increase in distance does affect the duration of the fluctuation.
Beep, beep, beep.
Guo Buluo didn’t take off his headphones, and immediately another rapid sound rang out.
This is a special item hidden in the Golden Eagle’s territory, which will emit vibrations at 8:10.
Compared to the spear in Tesla’s territory, the reaction of this special item was much stronger, forcing him to lower the volume of his headphones slightly to make it less harsh.
“The results are very good. It looks like we will be able to set off soon to explore other places on the southern plate to find some good stuff!”
Musk was a little excited.
Ever since he obtained the route, he was often so excited that he couldn’t sleep, and was obsessed with studying the source of this power.
He knew that if they could figure it out, humans would be able to gain power comparable to that of alien gods.
“Yes, the detector is already complete. We just need to adjust its accuracy and it will be ready for mass production!”
Guobuluo also seemed extremely excited, but he still did not take off his headphones and was still listening to the reactions.
He is a very careful and dedicated person, which is why he was able to discover that special items would produce fluctuations at regular intervals.
The fluctuations are different for each item and are fleeting.
It takes patience to listen, look for differences and mark them, so that we can follow up and research the secrets of this special power.
Time spent focused always passes quickly.
We have arrived at Tyrael territory.
A noisy voice came from the dock, as if someone was arguing, and the sound was so loud that it completely drowned out the echo in the headphones.
Annoyed, Musk and Guobrow could only take off their headphones and look towards the dock angrily.
There were two groups of people arguing.
“We have agreed to trade at this price three days in advance. You suddenly changed the price today. Doesn’t this go against our agreement?”
The man on the left had a loud voice and was holding a cloth bag, which must have contained items for trading.
“The price changes every day. We only booked the quantity three days ago, but didn’t tell you the price, right?”
The man who responded to him was not to be outdone, and his voice was equally overwhelming.
“Why didn’t you tell me? We not only agreed on the quantity with Manager Liu, but we also specifically said that the price will be 90% of the market price.”
“Manager Liu talked to you? Then why don’t you go find Manager Liu?”
“Fuck, you are playing rogue, right? The price we gave you is already so low, and you still want to lower it to half of the market price. I would rather feed this thing to dogs than trade it to you.”
“Haha, whatever. We are not the ones who are short of food anyway. You can sell it to whoever you want.”
The two groups quarreled for a few words and parted unhappily.
Musk didn’t understand what they were arguing about, but Guobuluo did. He called the captain of the escort ship over and asked him a few questions.
Just listening to the conversation between the two, it seems that the behavior of the Tyrell Territory is not very glorious.
The captain came ashore and quickly found out the general situation.
“It was a trade between Tyrael Territory and the surrounding Boulder Territory, exchanging food for medicines. However, it seems that there were some issues with the price, so the deal failed.”
“Change medicines?” Musk asked with a frown. He was somewhat familiar with the name of the Stone Territory, but he just couldn’t remember where he had seen it.
“We have provided them with a lot of medicines, why do they need to buy them from outside?”
“The medicines in the Boulder Territory are cheaper and more effective. I asked about the price and it’s nearly half the price of what we sell in our territory.”
“Half the price?” Musk was surprised.
“Then why didn’t the deal happen?”
“It should be that the Stone Territory is short of food. I don’t know what they were thinking. They built their territory on a stone mountain and didn’t cultivate the land. They could only trade food with the outside world. The people from Tyrael Territory saw this and tried to bargain at the last minute.”
A territory built on a stone mountain?
Musk suddenly remembered that he seemed to have seen the information about this huge stone territory at the previous assistance meeting.
Hey, does that information say that this Megalith Territory can produce medicines?
