Ice apocalypse, I hoard tens of billions of supplies

In the next few days, Zhang Yi and his team stayed in Samaran City and watched the developments.

The information they could collect in Fremons was too little, and the information provided by Ling alone could only allow them to understand the basic situation of Fremons.

However, Zhang Yi's next goal is to find more mechanical legions and collect those advanced mechanical life forms, especially those super-large mechanical life forms.

Only by obtaining such a powerful core can future space escape or underground fortress plans go smoothly.

But now it seems that the encounter with the Mechanical Legion that time was also largely a surprise.

Fremons is just too big.

If it weren't for the help of Fremons' top management, Zhang Yi and others would be like headless flies here, with no idea of ​​what was happening in various places.

However, at the moment, the Fremons forces represented by Bodaga are obviously wary of Zhang Yi and his men, and do not want them to gain too much benefit from the mechanical army.

Zhang Yi was not in a hurry at all. He believed that sooner or later the other party would come to him for help.

Because he had fought with underground civilization too many times, he knew very well that the strength displayed by the current mechanical civilization was simply not something Fremons could contend with.

It was just right that he could take advantage of this time to rest and let Lu Keren and Yang Xinxin continue to study the secrets of mechanical life forms.

During this period, alien troops from other countries and forces also arrived in Karen City one after another.

Among these people, Zhang Yi only recognized the alien troops from Columbia.

Among them was his old acquaintance Newton, but he knew nothing about the others.

In name, all forces are here to resist the invasion of mechanical civilization, but in reality, there is still a competitive relationship between countries and organizations.

However, as the alien troops from various countries arrived one after another, the top leaders of Fremons began to have different ideas in their minds.

Budaja stood on a tall building hidden in the snowstorm, looking around the city.

Now, powerful aliens have basically arrived in all major countries and forces around the world.

Such a huge force gathered in Fremons and would become their help. A feeling of heroism suddenly arose in Bodhaka's heart.

"Just use them and make Fremons great again!"

Behind him, several Fremons executives were sitting on the sofa drinking steaming coffee.

After hearing what Bhadruka said, several people looked at each other and said:

"These are the world's top experts. Are you sure you can command them? Don't let them backfire."

A senior Fremons official with slicked-back hair said.

Budaja smiled slightly, turned around and said confidently: "As long as the benefits are distributed properly, I believe they will be willing to work for us!"

A bald old man next to him stared at him, "But it seems that the situation is not so ideal at the moment. For example, the Chaos Team of Huaxu Country and the Indra Team of Bharata."

"After they arrived in Fremons, they didn't even say hello to us and started their own actions! Moreover," he said here, snorting in dissatisfaction, "they actually took all the spoils they obtained in Fremons and didn't give us a penny! This is really too much!"

The man with the slicked back hair also said, "Whether it is Huaxu or Bharata, they are both powerful countries around us. We can't even control them, let alone the alien organizations in various countries around the world."

Bhadhaja smiled.

With his hands behind his back, he took the old-fashioned cup with a red five-pointed star printed on it, took a sip of coffee, and said slowly, "It is precisely because there are so many alien organizations here that we can deal with them and maximize our benefits!"

"Oh? So what are your plans?"

The official with slicked-back hair looked at him curiously.

Bhadruka pointed to the floor beneath his feet.

"This is Fremons! If they want to continue to benefit from the war with the mechanical civilization, they need us to provide them with intelligence. Otherwise, they will be like a headless fly."

The bald man frowned and said sternly, "But we need their strength! It would be difficult to compete with the powerful underground civilization relying solely on Fremons' strength. If things go too far, it will be bad."

Bhadruka smiled and said, "I know my limits! So this will be a very good exchange of benefits."

He raised a finger: "So my plan is that in the next operation, we Fremons will provide intelligence to the alien forces of various countries. Then let them fight against the forces of the mechanical civilization!"

"Then all the spoils will be divided into 30% and 70%!"

The man with the slicked-back hair frowned, "Seventy percent? Isn't that too much? They may not agree to it."

Bhadaka said, "Seventy percent belongs to others, we only want thirty percent!"

He spread his arms and said, "But we don't need to send out troops! We are only responsible for providing intelligence and logistical supplies. Let them rush to the front line to fight and shed blood and sacrifice."

"A little bit adds up to a lot. Not only can we Fremons retain our manpower, but we can also obtain a large amount of resources. Isn't this wonderful?"

The man with slicked back hair and the bald man looked at each other and both fell into deep thought.

The man with the slicked-back hair took out a box of cigars from the inside pocket of his woolen coat, lit it and took a few puffs.

After a long while, he said, "This plan is really good! We can not only retain our own manpower, but also obtain a large amount of resources. In this way, the aliens of the Temple of the Gods can stay in Samarlan City to protect the safety of us senior personnel!"

“It’s like killing three birds with one stone!”

Bhadruka narrowed his eyes, smiled and shook his head.

"No, it should be killing four birds with one stone!"

The guy with the slicked back hair looked at him, "What else?"

Bodhaja raised a finger and said with a smile: "We can use this opportunity to weaken the strength of the alien forces in other countries! This will enhance the international competitiveness of our Fremons!"

The bald man and the one with slicked-back hair burst into laughter.

"Budaja, you are such a sinister and clever fellow!"

"Sure enough, no matter who I offend in the future, I can never offend you!"

……

There was laughter in the office.

As Alexei said, people think about problems differently depending on their standpoints.

People like Bhadruka don't consider the overall interests of humanity, nor do they care about the lives of ordinary people.

They only care about how to maximize their own interests, and for this, they are willing to sacrifice anyone.

Bodaka was certain that foreign alien organizations that had already tasted the sweetness would join this plan without hesitation even if they knew his purpose.

"However, Hun Dun of Hua Xu Kingdom and Indra of Bharata. Haha, these two are despicable guys! When I assign tasks to you, I will treat them well!"

A fierce look flashed in Budaja's eyes.

Whether out of personal grudges or geopolitical considerations, he had enough reasons to weaken Bharata and Huaxu.

……

Three days flew by.

During this period, there was no news of mechanical legions attacking human cities.

However, Zhang Yi speculated that it was not that it did not happen, but that there were no important human cities on the route of the mechanical army.

Alexei once said that in the eyes of mechanical civilization, humans are like ants on the ground. They will not deliberately step on them to death, but will only step on them accidentally when passing by.

However, what he wanted was not to wait silently.

During this period, he went to see Budaja, but Budaja refused with various reasons.

Zhang Yi knew that Bodaka was seeking revenge against him, but he was not in a hurry. He came back quietly and continued to work with Lu Keran and Yang Xinxin to crack the secret of the mechanical life form.

In three days, without any external interference, they finally broke through the energy core of the mechanical life form!

During the three days, Lu Keren and Zhou Keer had almost no rest. They relied on Zhou Keer's ability as a "doctor" to relieve their fatigue and complete the uninterrupted cracking.

Zhang Yi entered Mu Yan's shadow space, where several people were working.

The huge wreckage of the super-large life form lay quietly aside, with various complex electronic equipment in the middle.

The huge energy core had been split into two halves by Lu Keran, and Zhang Yi couldn't understand the complex internal structure at all.

He didn't even see the lines or circuit boards he had imagined, but only some special crystals or metals with complex colors and intricate patterns on them.

Zhang Yi felt a headache watching this, he didn't understand anything about it, but he could see the excitement of Lu Keran and Yang Xinxin from their eyes.

Lu Keren is fine, she is a mechanical fanatic and is extremely interested in various new technologies.

But if Yang Xinxin, who never shows her emotions except in front of Zhang Yi, could behave like this, it would be of great significance.

"How's it going? What have you found? Don't make it too complicated. You know, I can't understand you. So keep it simple and speak in a simple way."

Yang Xinxin looked at Zhang Yi and smiled, "Okay then, I'll do my best to cooperate with you in the performance."

After the joke, her eyes sparkled with excitement as she pointed at the huge computer in front of her.

This is the most advanced computer in the world, Tianhe-9.

Zhang Yi "asked" for it from Blizzard City.

"I have completely understood this new mechanical language. In terms of industrial manufacturing, Keran has also been able to replicate it. It's just that its materials are very special. Some of the elements have not yet been discovered on the periodic table. They are probably artificially synthesized."

"But this is not a problem for Keran. She can use her special powers to artificially synthesize these substances."

Zhang Yi tilted his head: "So?"

Lu Keren's face flushed with excitement. She clenched her fists and said to Zhang Yi in a trembling voice, "So, theoretically speaking, we can replicate this energy core!"

Zhang Yi keenly discovered the key to the problem.

"In theory? But in practice?"

Lu Keran scratched his head embarrassedly: "Hehe, of course not at the moment! Many materials are brand new and have never been discovered by human civilization. Therefore, it will take some time to create."

"But brother, give me a month at most! If I have enough materials, I will definitely be able to do it!"

She clenched her fists towards Zhang Yi, looking as if she was refusing to admit defeat.

Zhang Yi smiled and nodded at her with an approving expression.

"I believe that Ke Ran and Xin Xin have always been the best!"

Yang Xinxin pulled Zhang Yi's sleeve and said to him mysteriously:

"These technologies will be very useful in the future. But for now, there are other very important things. You will like them!"

Zhang Yi blinked curiously: "What is it?"

Yang Xinxin walked to the side, picked up a red gem from the plate that was bigger than her fair little hand, and handed it to Zhang Yi.

“This is the real core!”

Zhang Yi has seen this thing.

He tried hard to recall that it was in the image that Alexi showed him that the humanoid creature was equipped with this red gem.

He took it in his hand, but felt nothing. This thing was no different from an ordinary ruby. It looked crystal clear and could be sold for about ten or twenty yuan at a roadside stall.

"Is this the energy core? I don't feel anything."

Zhang Yi held it up and spoke while staring at it.

Yang Xinxin nodded: "This is the power of mechanical civilization! This energy stone should have very high energy radiation, but they use special technology to block the radiation, so it will not harm the organism, and its energy can be well controlled."

Zhang Yi looked at the tray over there, which contained five such rubies.

In other words, six palm-sized rubies are enough to support the operation of a super-large mechanical life form.

From this, we can imagine how enormous the energy inside this ruby ​​is!

"Another new type of energy. Even more powerful than the elemental stones we dug up before!"

Zhang Yi murmured, "I finally understand why the civilization that Bai Longzi belongs to has never mined the Yuanshi ore veins even though they are so close to it. It turns out that they just look down on it!"

A piece of candy dropped by humans will become a treasure that will make the ants tremble. That’s roughly the concept.

"We plan to apply it to the Tianhai Fortress and mecha in the future."

Yang Xinxin smiled and said, "Including the exoskeleton armor you are wearing, brother."

Zhang Yi's eyes suddenly widened.

"Isn't that equivalent to carrying a warship on my body at all times?"

Wouldn’t the combat capability of the Qianlong Armor have soared to the sky?

"What's so strange about this?"

Yang Xinxin smiled faintly and said, "The super-large mechanical life forms of the mechanical civilization can fight against the Black Chariot-level aliens. When a civilization reaches a certain level, it will have such a level."

Zhang Yi couldn't help but sigh in his heart.

"Yes, if you underestimate the power of technology, you may suffer great losses."

Looking at the ruby ​​in his hand, although Zhang Yi was very happy, he also felt a little worried.

If they only obtain a part of the mechanical civilization technology, they can make a huge leap in their civilization.

So if the mechanical civilization really gets angry one day and goes to war with human civilization, the destructive power they will unleash... is simply unimaginable!
