Be the savior from Frostpunk

Chapter 54 To New Manchester

Alexander left with the collected data satisfied, and Andrew got a strange suggestion from Li Jianghao.

Li Jianghao claims that carving a skull on a steam engine with eagle wings growing on both sides may bring unexpected effects.

Andrew had already given up hope on the steam engine, so he agreed to do it instead.Afterwards, I shifted my energy to study how to increase the work efficiency of the robot.

Handle the city affairs in the past few days. Because of the rapid riots of the London gang, people have seen the strength of the guard.

A small number of people with bad intentions do not dare to cause trouble.

In addition, the guards patrolled every day, and some incidents of food theft and bullying of women did not happen.

Except for Bryan, the other captured Londoners were not particularly abused during the labor process, and with the addition of survivors from Tesla City, they finally let go of their vigilance.

One has to believe that the old world is dead.

According to the location provided by Tesla and Bernard, it will take at least 416 days to go back and forth to find New Manchester and the cursed 7 construction site.

After arranging the affairs within the seven days, Li Jianghao packed his luggage and left the city with the reconnaissance team formed by Case, Brian and Bernard.By the way, I brought some ingredients for backup.

Huck will be in charge of coordinating the city during this period. He has stayed with Li Jianghao for a long time, and he can play a part of the role by taking pictures of cats and tigers.Arnold will protect Huck from accidents.

Pierre's injury was still affecting his actions, so Li Jianghao made a special prosthetic for him and used it as a teaching tool in the children's shelter.

The first batch of educated children can already undertake part of the treatment work at the ambulance station, and transport food from the kitchen to the construction site.

Back in this icy and snowy land, only the heat lamp on his clothes provided heat, which made Li Jianghao a little excited.

Staying in a comfortable environment will make people feel slack. He can only rely on the surrounding environment to warn himself that he is not satisfied with the achievements of the city's current development.

His mission has not been completed, once the mission fails, he will face the punishment of death.

Bernard's physical condition is not like that of an old man at all, and he is not lagging behind in the speed of the crowd of young and middle-aged men.

This official who has dealt with government affairs all the year round can easily think that his London gang actually made the wedding dress for Li Jianghao's purpose of uniting the citizens.

But he didn't care, instead he felt a little joy, which showed that Li Jianghao's purpose was not as lofty as saving people's lives in his eyes.

Now that Li Jianghao has agreed to help him find the truth about the death of his youngest son, Bernard is also willing to be used as a tool, and he did not tell Brian about this.

The engineering station has upgraded the technology of the speed of the sled, and even after two days of long-distance raids, they finally reached the location of New Manchester.

To Li Jianghao's surprise, the energy tower in New Manchester was still on, but it only had first-order heat.

The location of New Manchester has not cooled as much as New London. The new home has experienced a temperature drop of minus 50 degrees Celsius once, and here it is only minus 30 degrees Celsius.

But even so, the people here still gather in the inner circle of the energy tower to survive, and the population of the city is only a little over a hundred people.

After the lighthouse spotted Li Jianghao and his party, New Manchester erupted in shouts.

Some people welcome these visitors into the city, staring at the food of the guests, but fearing the guns in their hands.

They don't know what kind of rifle the visitor is holding. As long as they recognize that this thing is a gun that can kill people, it is enough for them to forcefully suppress their hunger and do nothing else.

When walking around the energy tower, an old engineer walked out slowly.

People recognize the ribbon on Li Jianghao's chest and know that he is the mayor.All kinds of suspicious thoughts spread and whispered among the crowd.

"Welcome, Lord Mayor. Not sure where you're from? As you can see, the city is just lingering, and our lighthouse has detected a massive cooling climate. Without enough resources, none of us can live Go down. If you want to rule this city, be prepared to rule a dead city."

Without so much red tape, the old man directly pointed out the hidden dangers of his own city, and looked forward to getting a response.

He didn't even think about whether these people were predators. Anyway, without assistance, New Manchester was dying slowly.

"Tesla's death is the death sentence I pronounced." Li Jianghao heard the threat of the old man's last words. If he rules the city with tyranny, he will also be deported like Tesla.

So he talked about Tesla's death as soon as he opened his mouth.

The crowd was in an uproar, and even in such a painful environment, there was a hint of joy.

After confirming that the visitor was not malicious, the old man slowly explained what happened in New Manchester.

After the original mayor disappeared, when they were controlled by Tesla, the ruler of a foreign land, they still expected the hidden dangers of the city to be improved.

As a result, the tyrant instead forced their labor to plunder the resources of other settlements on the ice sheet, and squeezed the people in the city.

New Manchester simply expelled Tesla out of fear of the Queen's law.

Then try to find other settlements to get help.

But because of their previous plunder, these settlements have been destroyed or disappeared.

New Manchester had to organize a reconnaissance team to go to another scientific research site that was vaguely recorded in the records.

The reconnaissance party sent by the lighthouse of New Manchester could not even prepare enough equipment for the members.

They sent out a scouting party two days ago, and it's not even clear that anyone made it to that location alive.

This is probably why only one survivor arrived at the Ark for help in the game plot.

After Li Jianghao confirmed the location of the scientific research site, he determined that it was the location of the Ark Energy Tower.

Then told people here that he was from New London, which has entered a virtuous circle and can support a population of over 1000 citizens.

Li Jianghao will also personally go to the Ark to get enough food and coal resources to save New Manchester.

But the price is that Manchester needs to provide at least 50 people to settle in New London.

For this condition, facing the threat of food and weapons brought by Li Jianghao, the people of New Manchester quickly agreed.

The old engineer originally thought that Li Jianghao would give priority to taking away young workers and engineers, but Li Jianghao let them choose their own places to go to New London.

Even if all of them are women and children, it doesn't matter. Anyway, after these people arrive, the robots produced recently can smoothly replace all production positions.

Now New London can afford to support idle people, but Li Jianghao is still afraid that no one will come, even if they are all seriously ill.

After the number of robots is sufficient, a large number of infirmary buildings that also use steam cores can be built, and they can be kept and treated one by one.
