Chapter 4: The Foundation of Power

"Branding in progress...Branding completed!"

As a stream of data poured into the supercomputer, Shu You was pleasantly surprised.

Precision parts manufacturing factory!

Unexpectedly, the first factory Zhao Yi and others encountered after entering the industrial zone brought Shu You such a surprise!

Precision parts processing factory is one of the necessary conditions for the production of combat robots, and it is the most important one. He originally thought that this third-tier city did not have such a high-end factory.

"The output of the three production lines is enough to cover the early stage."

He nodded with satisfaction, looked at the 4D printing workshop unconsciously, and then helplessly continued to observe the task force in the industrial zone.

This kind of micro 4D printing equipment still has many limitations.

Even for the production of multifunctional helmets for task force equipment, all chips and some parts were found from the electronics research laboratory.

"If the damn pheromones hadn't blocked the network and signals, and high-dimensional quantum data couldn't spread freely, I would have controlled global productivity long ago..."

Shu You began to babble unconsciously.

…

"Proceed carefully, it's a little quiet here!"

The task force that came out of the first factory quickly dispersed and quickly approached the data department in the center of the industrial zone in a four-person skirmish formation.

The leader, Zhao Yi, and the other four became more solemn.

There were only bloodstains along the way, but not the slightest trace of mutants or even mutant beasts. Something was obviously wrong.

Even Shu You, who used his personal terminal to observe the situation, felt something was not right.

It should be mentioned here that the range of data dissemination within each imprinting point is one square kilometer.

Because the industrial area happens to be beyond this range, the task force needs to be branded manually.

In addition, the data department has an information base station. If it is imprinted, Shuyou's data can easily cover the entire high-tech park.

An area of ​​more than twenty square kilometers!

This will make subsequent development much easier.

"Attention all units, turn on the thermal imaging function, enter the data department building in groups of four, find the base station and stand by where you are!"

After Zhao finished speaking, he quickly climbed in through the ventilation duct with three team members and headed in an unknown direction.

…

bump!

There was a sudden loud noise in the dark and silent passage of the building, and then Zhao's small team quickly descended from the ceiling to form a battle formation.

After seeing that there was no danger, Zhao Yi became a little serious.

"After hearing such a loud noise, there are still no mutants appearing. It doesn't look simple."

Zhao Yi and the others moved forward quickly and lightly, and suddenly stopped when they passed a corner.

Shu You also saw clearly what was written on the door that appeared after turning the corner.

〈Information Base Station Room〉

Things went surprisingly smoothly, but Zhao Yi did not relax his vigilance.

Four people surrounded the glass door and looked behind it.

The base station is shaped like a cone, only five meters high, and is wrapped in a thick layer of bulletproof glass.

Zhao Yiyi nodded to the team members on one side of the door, then took out two grenades and threw them in the moment the team members opened the door.

With two loud noises, the glass door was instantly shattered by fragments, and Zhao Yi and four others rushed directly into the base station room and fired several shots at each of these corners.

"Is there really no danger?"

Zhao Yi thought in confusion.

At this moment, a sound that broke through the air suddenly came from above the heads of the four people!

"Roar!"

Zhao Yi's face hardened, he pushed his teammates away, and then lay down on the spot.

All this happens in just one second!

The long and narrow black shadow stuck to the back of Zhao Yi's head and threw itself against the metal wall behind him, knocking a shallow crater out of the wall.

The shadow shook his head and stood up, roaring.

Da da da!

Before the black shadow continued to kill Zhao Yi, the soldier pushed away by Zhao Yi reacted, quickly pulled the trigger, and fired wildly at the black shadow.

The cold metal bullets carried huge kinetic energy and tearing force, splashing the shadow creature's blood and roaring continuously, but there was no sign of falling down.

Zhao Yi and the other three people also opened fire at this time. The flames from their muzzles illuminated the base station, and the bloody body of the black shadow flashed away in the darkness.

The body is like a human being without skin, and the whole body is covered with blood-red and ferocious muscles. The huge walnut-like head has no eyes or other facial features. It is bare, with only a big mouth cracked to the base of the ear, full of sharp teeth and pieces of meat!

The nearly forty centimeters of sharp claws on its terrifyingly developed limbs pulled out deep marks on the alloy wall.

Licker!

Zhao Yi and another soldier flashed a piece of information in their minds at the same time, and their expressions changed slightly.

Lickers, a type of mutant that is extremely dangerous in the early days of the apocalypse, are extremely agility and attack power, and their claws can even tear apart iron plates!

No one knows where they evolved from, but there are plenty of them!

The licker's characteristics were immediately analyzed, and the team quickly responded.

Keep moving while firing to avoid being surprised.

But the next moment, a long tongue like a sharp spear instantly penetrated the body of another warrior.

Before Zhao Yi could react, the soldier instantly threw out the rifle in his hand, took out a grenade and grabbed the licker's long tongue, and rushed towards the licker who could not escape.

boom!

With the loud noise, everything returned to calm.

Zhao Yi shook his head, climbed up from behind the experimental table, looked at the two soldiers who had just come down from the ventilation duct and were silent for a moment, then made a gesture to continue the task.

The three of them carefully inspected the base station room and then began the branding work.

Seven lickers appeared in the other floors, killing ten members of the task force!

If it were an ordinary unit, hundreds of casualties would be possible.

Shu You watched calmly throughout the whole process, not caring about the casualties at all.

He regarded all this as a necessary sacrifice and a necessary condition for achieving the goal.

This is the talent of data life. Although it is not absolutely rational, rationality is definitely far superior to sensibility!

As long as it is within the scope of what data life considers necessary, there will not be many excessive emotional fluctuations regardless of whether the casualties are serious or not.

Back to the base station room...

Zhao Yi clicked several times on the personal terminal, and a tiny light particle floated out, directly passing through the bulletproof glass and merging into the base station.

At the moment of merging, the data streams were quickly changed, turning into countless strange data streams that continued to proliferate, and in an instant they were connected and controlled the entire high-tech park!

Countless buildings lit up at the same time, and for a while, the roars of the dense mutants in the high-tech park rang out one after another.

After doing all this, the task force quickly retreated and rushed towards the research institute in the center of the park.

At this moment, Shu You was excitedly sorting out the data of high-tech equipment in the entire high-tech park - this is the foundation of the future!

"Three small supercomputers with 300 trillion times per second, three medium-sized precision parts production lines, one small nuclear power plant, ten sets of full-function mining equipment;

Ten sets of metallurgical equipment, five sets of chemical equipment, twenty sets of mechanical equipment, one small 4D printing production line...

There are a total of 35 factories.

Alas, it is not as good as the urban industrial zone on the other side of the city after all."

Although it seems that Shu You is complaining, the smile on his projection face can't be stopped.

Blue Star's technology is very developed. Although the industrial system is complex, there are only a dozen types of industrial equipment, but they can fully undertake any production work.

This has resulted in industrial equipment requiring a high degree of education to operate, and the number is very small.

Of course, the output is absolutely high!

"Oh? There are still 400 tons of resource liquid!"

Shu You swept across a warehouse and said with a little surprise.

Blue Star's industrial system is very developed, but Shu You still thinks it is not as good as the fully mature 4D printing technology, which he happens to have.

Although this technology cannot be realized for the time being, he still does not intend to use ordinary industrial production methods as the main production method, but as a preliminary transition at most.

Looking at the returning task force through the camera, Shu You thought about the next development strategy.

In less than a few seconds, the general plan was listed in front of him.

[One: Edit a military deduction-type intelligent assistant

Two: Expand the task force and equip it with heavy weapons, and then clean up the high-tech park.

Three: Build a defense line between the high-tech park and the urban area within ten kilometers, and initially select the city wall defense line.

Four: Clear the surrounding villages and towns and obtain supplies.

Five: Gradually capture this third-tier city! ]

There is no detailed plan. Shu You believes in keeping the same in the face of change.

"The nearby villages and towns are all built because of the mineral veins. I hope the official resource warehouse there will not let me down."

Shu You muttered.

With the return of the task force, the high-tech park has returned to peace again.

Of course, it is a superficial peace.

The uninterrupted operation of the 4D printing workshop and the humming sound from the industrial zone all revealed a sense of impending storm.

As for the development of the outside world, Shu You had no time to care at this moment.

Because in the hyperdimensional space, a group of golden particles slightly larger than Shu You kept circling around the group of colored gold particles representing Shu You.

For some reason, Shu You's body actually began to absorb it automatically.

This made Shu You, who didn't know how to increase his volume, very happy, and he directly buried his head in active absorption.

In Shu You's eyes, he was the core of future development, so strengthening himself was the most important thing.

As for the outside world, there was a management-type complete replica, and I believe there would be no problem.

So, Shu You completely entered the "sleeping" state...

He never thought that this absorption would take fifteen days!

ps: The foreshadowing of the next chapter ends, and the main line begins!
