The Scavengers

April 12

Cheng Zai was the first to discover the recovery of the magnetic field. At that time, he was doing regular maintenance on the base vehicle.

As soon as Xiaoji recovered, he greeted him, and soon began to analyze the latest environmental data of the current car body and its surroundings.

Cheng Zai was so happy that he yelled to inform everyone, and immediately used the communicator to tell Xiao Mo the good news.

The bracelet on Xiao Mo's wrist has undergone system transformation, and has integrated various functions such as storage, attack, communication, and optical brain. When it receives Cheng Zai's contact, it immediately feeds back to Xiao Mo.

Xiao Mo told Xue Lihong the good news, and the two turned their heads and ran back to Eleven Taibao Mountain.The base car is usable. Of course, it is comfortable and safe to drive out with the base car, just in time to bring everyone in the team.

Due to the restoration of the magnetic field, the internal construction speed of Zhongshan Base has been further accelerated, and the elementary optical brain provided by the system has really shown its talents. Not to mention other functions, it only conducts data and theoretical modeling for various research projects, and speculates on the possibility of success. The function of sexuality greatly reduces the actual research process of scientific researchers.

In terms of energy, the elementary optical brain also helped the base build a safer, simpler and concealed nuclear kinetic energy station.Since then, at least there will be no shortage of power supply at the Zhongshan Base.

His Majesty the System said that nuclear kinetic energy has been eliminated by civilizations above the second level because of its pollution.

According to the system speculation, if the earth humans continue to produce alloy particles and other organisms can continue to produce energy crystals, then the future energy system of the earth may change soon.

No matter how it changes in the future, at least the base now has plenty of electricity.With electricity, of course, a series of means of improving life such as lighting, heating, cooling, purification, heating, and even induction cookers will also return to the level before the catastrophe.

At this point, the survivors of the base really took a breath.

However, because of the previous big storm, many factories and machinery in the base were destroyed, and the magnetic field did not recover before, so there was no rush to repair these machinery and other things, mainly because most of them were too broken to be repaired.

The status quo of the base is a typical waste waiting to be done!

Qiu Feng looked at the swarming heads of various departments, all of them were crying and asking for new machines, repairmen, spare parts,...etc. Everyone shouted at the top of their voices that their department was the most important.

"Guns! Bullets! This is what we need most. If we don't have these, how can we fight those monsters? How can we hunt? How can we do missions and collect supplies? But except for some machinery, everything else is broken. The ones under the ground have also been flooded for many days, we don’t want to give new machines, at least we must have enough parts for replacement, right? General, no matter what, please send people to other arsenals to collect supplies first!”

"Get out of the way! The building of our research institute was destroyed by the big storm. The computers and machines inside were almost destroyed, and only some of them were protected by our scientific researchers. In terms of research, how can this machine be enough? We urgently need computers, high and low speed centrifuges, electromagnetic analyzers, and automatic dissociation..."

"Toilet paper! Don't you all need toilet paper? The paper mill must be reopened! But our production line was completely ruined by no one to protect it! We urgently need a new production line!"

"Let's focus on the living department first, air conditioners, boilers, heating, wires, electric meters, electric lights... Don't look at these as the most everyday things, but they are most needed because of daily life!"

Director Zhang, Cai Jinhua, Jin Shan and other managers looked at Qiu Feng with sympathy, but they were helpless.

At most, director Zhang will post more related tasks in the mercenary office.But now the whole world is covered by a thick layer of snow, it is not easy to find a place where there may be supplies under such a thick snow, not to mention, you have to brave the severe cold and be attacked by monsters In danger, they rummaged through the ruins that were almost destroyed by the big storm to find the supplies they needed.

Cai Jinhua and others also came to ask for things and people, and it was even more difficult to intervene in the situation on the spot.

Jinshan saw that everyone was arguing really outrageously, so he came forward and said: "Quiet! Everyone, please be quiet first, we all know your situation, and we will hold a meeting later to discuss which materials to collect first. Now, leave your application, People leave first, what is it like to crowd here?"

After finally inviting the heads of various departments to leave, the senior management of the base continued to hold a meeting.

Looking at the thick pile of material application forms, everyone was so worried that their hair fell out one by one.

Every department is very important, and everyone's requirements are very reasonable, but it's hard for a smart woman to cook without rice. These materials cannot be produced at the base at present, and a production line must be obtained first.And the production line needs various machines to produce.Some of the instruments used in some studies are professional instruments produced by some research institutes, and no one can be found to make them.

"General, why don't you decide which department should collect materials first?" Everyone had no choice but to favor anyone, so they had to leave the decision to the boss of the base.

Qiu Feng picked up the thick stack of application forms, tapped it lightly on the table, "I'll give you the details tomorrow, and the meeting is adjourned!"

How can the meeting be dismissed like this!Cai Jinhua and others cheered and surrounded Qiu Feng together.

"General, time can't be delayed any longer, can you give me an accurate word?"

Qiu Feng was in a hurry to find Xiao Mo, and with a wave of his hand, he asked the guards to come up and separate the crowd.

"General!"

Qiu Feng opened the door, and saw the circle of people in charge standing outside the door, none of them left, they were all waiting for news.Helpless, I had no choice but to close the door, turn around and say to the executives: "I have a solution to the current lack of machines, but if you stop me, it will be too late!"

What does the general mean?But seeing Qiu Feng's solemn expression, all the executives looked at each other.

Qiu Feng pointed at the door of the office, "You guys, calm down those people outside. If there is any sign of instability in the base, I will settle accounts with you! Leave the machine and production line to me, and I will tell you the details tomorrow! Break up the meeting!"

This time, no one stopped Qiu Feng. Qiu Feng did not go through the gate, but left through another corridor under the protection of the guards.

After leaving the air-raid shelter, Qiu Feng jumped into the prepared car and urged: "Quick! Hurry up to Eleven Taibao Mountain!"

When Qiu Feng arrived at the Eleventh Taibao Mountain, the scavengers were just about to set off.

Before setting off, Xiao Mo asked everyone in the team, who wanted to stay at the base to watch the house, and who wanted to follow the car.

The Xiao family said that they don't have supernatural powers, and going out to do tasks will only delay their progress. They might as well stay at the base and do some work within their ability, so that they will not feel like they are being raised as useless people.

Wang Cheng's parents also said that they are getting old, and it is better to stay at the base and at home instead of running around with the car.

Qian Yunkai's father had a job in a research institute, so he couldn't do without him, and he wouldn't go with the car.If Father Qian didn't leave, Mother Qian would naturally stay and accompany her husband.

"Xiao Mo, in fact, you don't have to worry about us at all. It might be safer for us to stay at the base. You see, we have Xiaolu looking after our house, General Qiu takes good care of us, and others are also very kind to us because of you. Respect, the work that the base has arranged for us is fairly easy, and the benefits are also very good, at least we can support ourselves. Not to mention you left us so many alloy particles." Deng Anjie cited reasons one by one, Trying to dispel the worries of all traveling team members, including Xiao Mo, about their families.

"By the way, there is also Ms. Chang'e! During your absence, Ms. Chang'e often came to our place. She also said that she likes the scenery on the Eleventh Taibao Mountain and also likes living in the vine forest. In the future, when you are not here, Chang'e often comes to us. Ms. E can take care of us to some extent."

Cheng Zai nodded, indicating that Sister Deng was right, his mother was indeed planning to make a home in the woods on the top of Eleventh Taibao Mountain.

Xiao Mo and the team members looked at each other, Qian Yunkai was not very worried about his parents, and Wang Cheng also felt that it would be better to stay in a safer base than letting his parents run around with the car at an early age.

Cheng Zai was not worried about his mother.

The matter was decided in this way. In the end, there were ten people in the car, namely: Xiao, Xue, Qian, Wang, Cheng, Lao Wu's family of three and Lin Xiaofei, plus a young man named Qiu Xinchou who had just arrived for two days.

Dahei and Little Mantis refused to get off after getting into the car, they were the members who must be taken with them.

Xiao Mo was worried that Little Green would make a fuss and would go with them, but who would have thought that Little Green would find a new joy in tree life, and now it is obsessed with and committed to expanding its own territory, and is always trying to make itself The root system of the plant is deep and deep, wide and wide.

According to what Master Lu passed on to Xiao Mo, it seems that it wants to spread its roots all over the earth.

Xiao Mo didn't think that Xiaolu was making wild ambitions. With the help of green light spots, Xiaolu might really become the most powerful plant to dominate the entire planet in the future.

"Captain Xiao! Deputy Xue! Wait a minute!"

Qiu Feng asked the driver to turn the car in front of the front of the base car, and when he got off the car, he waved and shouted.

"Dad?" Seeing his father running towards him, Qiu Xin thought he came here specially to see him off, so he slipped out of the base vehicle in a moved way, and rushed up to give his father a hug.

Qiu Feng slapped his son away, and smiled wryly at Xiao Mo who got off the car: "Xiao Xiao, you can't leave right away, the base is waiting for your help!"

"What's wrong? Didn't I recover all those seriously injured?" Xiao Mo wondered.

"This time it's not a human, it's a machine! It's a task and you're paid."

Therefore, Xiao Mo failed to make it on that day.

Qiu Feng first took Xiao Mo to the military airport of the base.

Qiu Feng and Lu Tuan, who was in charge of the air force, looked at the rags in the airport with tears in their hearts.

When the big storm came, these military helicopters could not be protected in time, and most of the planes were placed in the open air. As a result... After the big storm, this place became an aircraft dump.

Few of that many planes were left unscathed.

There are staff on site to check the aircraft.

Head Lu said bitterly: "Those who are inspecting the planes are all pilots. Poor these guys, they used to be the best fighters, but now they can only work as maintenance workers. If these planes can't be repaired, they will probably never again. There is no chance to go to the sky. These planes are broken, and they are the most distressed people."

The arrival of Xiao Mo and others attracted the attention of several pilots, who saluted them.

Xiao Mo saw a familiar person, who seemed to be a pilot he had rescued.

The pilot recognized him too, and smiled at him.

Xiao Mo nodded and smiled slightly at him.

Qiu Feng asked Captain Lu to summon the pilots and told them to leave first.

Head Lu was puzzled.

Qiu Feng was hard to explain.

Xue Lihong looked at the pilots who were lining up, and said, "There's no need to tell them to leave. We're the only ones who came. After we leave, they will find that the planes have been repaired. They will definitely guess the truth. Let them speculate on each other and attract unwanted attention. It's better to just let them see the facts and keep their mouths shut afterwards."

Qiu Feng also thought the same way, but he promised to keep Xiao Mo a secret, so naturally it was not good for him to propose it, it would be great if Xue Lihong could take the initiative to say so.

Head Lu thought to himself: Could these two still be repairing planes?I heard that Captain Xiao used to be a repairer of home appliances and collected junk. Could it be that he was hiding his secrets and was actually an aircraft engineer?

All the upper echelons of the base have read Xiao Mo's information countless times. Naturally, they also know whether he was born in engineering mechanics or graduated from a world-renowned university with honors. A little admiration, Xiao Mo is almost in this range.

What Tuanzhang Lu called Xiao Mo's collection of rags was just a kind of intimate joke like a soldier.

Knowing that Xiao Mo had never learned how to repair airplanes, Captain Lu turned to Xue Lihong: Is this the right person who repairs airplanes?

Under everyone's puzzled eyes, Qiu Feng said to Xiao Mo: "Please repair three planes first, one Wuzhi, one with maximum capacity, and one reconnaissance plane. The base is urgently needed."

Xiao Mo didn't ask Qiu Feng what he needed these planes for, he presumably went to other bases to rescue people or supplies - the magnetic field and communication were restored, and some small bases nearby must have turned to the big base for help immediately.

"Tell me which three are they?" Xiao Mo asked quickly.

Qiu Feng was also unclear, so he went to ask Head Lu, and Head Lu beckoned and called the flight captain under him: "Point out the three planes that are in the best condition as requested by the head."

The flight captain saluted.Immediately take them to pick the plane.

The first one was an armed helicopter. The plane was fine except for the left wing.As long as there are suitable welding tools and repair materials, this Wuzhi can fly again.

"What materials do you need? I'll send the welding machine over right away, but there aren't enough materials, and besides..." the flight captain halfway through speaking, his eyes suddenly popped out of his sockets, his mouth opened wide, and he completely lost his composure.

Looking at Qiu Feng's appearance, Xiao Mo knew that there must be a lot of things to repair. In order to save energy as much as possible, he didn't repair the whole fuselage. For example, the broken wing was repaired - just when the flight captain said to go to get tools and materials.

Head Lu, the flight captain, and the other pilots who came over to see the situation: ...Oh my god!

Seeing the expressions of Captain Lu and the others clearly, Qiu Feng couldn't help showing a smug smile on his face. This kind of indescribable sourness!Although it is a pity that Xiao Mo is neither his son nor his soldier, but it is still his discovery.

Xiao Mo coughed, "This soldier, please tell me which plane is the next one that needs to be repaired?"

Head Lu's expression was distorted, he probably wanted to laugh, but he was too surprised in his heart, and wanted to say something to Qiu Feng or Xiao Mo, but all kinds of complex emotions concentrated on his mouth, not only did he not say anything , Instead, all the muscles near the mouth are distorted and deformed.

After a long while, the head of the Lu team held back a sentence: "So our Captain Xiao's healing ability can not only heal people, but also heal planes?"

Qiu Feng laughed loudly, and slapped his powerful subordinate on the shoulder vigorously. He obviously wanted to say it but pretended to be mysterious: "He, there are many things that can be healed! Hehehe!"
