The last leader of the world starts with an elite infantry squad!

Chapter 619: Hope of Breaking Free from the Shackles of Civilization

The night was as deep as water, and the entire city of Chongqing was immersed in darkness and desolation. Only the Zhanjiang Industrial Zone was brightly lit, like a shining pearl in the mountain city in the dark night.

buzz~

After the convoy passed the checkpoint and entered the high walls of the Zhanjiang Industrial Zone, looking at the rows of bright and dazzling street lights along the road, even Lu Chong, the commander of the Zhanjiang Military Sub-district, could not help but feel a huge sense of separation.

"Holy shit, is this still the end of the world? Why do I feel like I've traveled back to before the end of the world?"

Inside the Mengshi 3 armored command vehicle, Lu Chong shook his head vigorously and continued to look out the window with interest.

There are different factories lined up along the street, including chassis factories, body factories, exterior decoration factories, electronic and electrical factories, engine factories, etc.

Brightly lit, busy scene

Even though it was already early in the morning, every factory was still roaring as bright as day, with production work continuing non-stop.

At this time, the staff officer who was usually responsible for connecting with the military industrial zone introduced:

"Reporting to the chief, in order to increase production, the Zhanjiang Industrial Zone has adopted a 24-hour three-shift system, with people stopping and machines continuing production!"

"Three shifts 24 hours a day?" Lu Chong was slightly surprised, as if he was thinking about something.

"That's not bad, it's quite humane. Even though the time is wrong, it's still an 8-hour workday."

...

Soon, Lu Chong's convoy arrived at the armored vehicle assembly plant located at the innermost part of the armored vehicle production area.

"Commander Lu, you've worked hard. I didn't expect you to come so late!"

As soon as Lu Chong got out of the car, he heard Academician Li Tianlin's warm greeting.

"Hahaha, the first armored vehicle rolling off the production line is such a significant event. Even if my wife is about to give birth, I must come!" Lu Chong smiled at Academician Li Tianlin as he took the coat handed to him by the staff officer.

"It's cold outside, Commander Lu, please come in!" After saying that, Academician Li Tianlin made a gesture of invitation.

"Okay, then I won't be polite!" Then, Lu Chong took the lead and strode into the armored assembly plant.

"Speaking of which, Academician Li Tianlin, you have worked really hard. You are still working so hard even at this late hour for the production and construction tasks."

On the way into the production area, Lu Chong exchanged pleasantries casually, but the admiration on his face was genuine.

He really thought this old man was amazing. Several times he called him for help late at night.

Hearing this, Academician Li Tianlin couldn't help but laugh, and at the same time he also felt a little bit like reminiscing about the past years:

"Hahahaha, I'm used to it! I'm used to it! Decades ago, when things were the most difficult, my teacher took me with him, and we often pulled all-nighters!"

"But I really didn't feel tired at that time. I was full of energy. I just wanted to work harder and faster to produce advanced weapons as soon as possible to defend our country!"

"Now we old guys all have the same idea. We don't have many years left to live. We have to do more now before we die. We are in a hurry..."

"I'm afraid that I'll die before I can get the contents of my brain out!"

At this moment, just from the tone, Lu Chong could already feel the sense of urgency in Academician Li Tianlin's heart.

This is the real people's scientist.

"In fact, you and other veteran academicians don't need to be too anxious..." Lu Chong thought about it for a moment, as if he suddenly thought of something.

"I heard that...the Provincial Military Region Life Science College has made a breakthrough in the application technology of zombie brain cores. It is said that they have developed a drug that can enhance human physique."

"It is currently in the clinical trial stage. Once successful, it should be helpful to your body..."

"Improve your physical fitness?"

As soon as the words fell, Academician Li Tianlin immediately showed an expression of joy that could not be concealed, and could not help but mutter:

"Is it to enhance human body functions? To improve human condition?"

"That would be great if it were true. Then we old guys would work hard and strive to work for the leader and for humanity for another fifty years!"

With the development of science and technology, life expectancy has become a shackle that hinders human technological progress.

Usually the golden research period for scientists is between 30 and 60 years old. However, with the increasing complexity of the modern scientific system, the time period young scientists need to study is becoming longer and longer.

For example, a theoretical physicist may need to study until he is 40 years old just to fully master the existing cutting-edge knowledge, and this is only for those with relatively excellent talents.

As time goes by and more scientific research results emerge from our predecessors, the time period for future scientists to learn will only become longer and longer, and the time left for them to research will become shorter and shorter.

Lifespan is like a hinge that traps human technology. The further you go, the more suffocating it becomes!

However, the application of zombie crystal cores in human life sciences has given Academician Li Tianlin hope of a solution!

If humans could live longer or maintain their peak state for a longer period of time as a result, it would be a breakthrough on the level of the Big Bang for the development of human science!

Looking back at the long history of mankind, how many great figures have been defeated by the passage of time?

That group of people, let alone living 20 years longer, even if they just live 5 years longer, the contribution they make to mankind will be immeasurable!

So just thinking about this, Academician Li Tianlin couldn't help but tremble with excitement!

What kind of armored vehicle is this? It's something that anyone can build! Compared to this achievement that can change the scale of human civilization, it's not as good as a stick!

So on the way in, Academician Li Tianlin kept pestering Lu Chong and asked many questions about the results of the zombie brain core.

This made Lu Chong feel like he was here to report on his achievements...

...

"Look, that's the car!"

In the workshop, Academician Li Tianlin, who seemed to have entered sage mode, pointed casually with a bored look on his face.

...

Well...

No? With your expression, should I be excited or not?

Academician Li Tianlin's appearance made Lu Chong confused...

If I'm not excited, it's a shame for such a meaningful moment. If I'm excited, I'll seem ignorant and like a bumpkin...

"Ahem~ Um, Academician Li, what is the annual output of our production line?" After going up and touching the car in a serious manner, Lu Chong asked, suppressing the weirdness in his heart.

"With three shifts for 24 hours and no problems with parts supply, the annual production capacity can reach 2 vehicles."

“Twenty thousand a year?”

Hearing this, Lu Chong no longer cared about the strange feeling in his heart. His eyes lit up and he started calculating immediately.

2 cars a year, wouldn’t that be 54 cars a day?

Arming an infantry battalion in one day?!
