Wasteland Development Diary

After confirming the cooperation, Vulture Gold Mountain stayed directly in Emerald City as a full-time liaison. The two assistant red-eyed vultures with it flew back to Motor City with the drawings.

It was not too far from Sandport, located on an island 800 kilometers to the northwest.

The Hundred Schools Plateau, another territory controlled by Overlord Gong, was located further north, with Motor City being an exclave under its control.

Zhou Yi learned from Vulture Gold Mountain that Motor City was named because it originally contained a large number of abandoned vehicles, essentially a garbage dump.

Logically speaking, dismantling scrapped vehicles for parts and scrap metal could be exchanged for money.

The abandoned vehicles were all high-risk vehicles, either carrying dangerous goods for a long time, causing them to be radioactive, or extremely unstable and prone to loss of control semi-awakened vehicles.

The original site of Motor City was short of resources, and the water source contained a large amount of heavy metals and toxins, making it difficult to drink.

"There is too much garbage piled up there, and a lot of plastic, chemicals, and some harmful substances sealed in cement are buried deep underground, which has led to the pollution of the water source."

Vulture Gold Mountain recounted the history: "But thanks to this, no one has ever been interested in that place, and all kinds of harmful garbage are dumped there. Especially the various harmful wastes from the Electromechanical Cities, which have almost turned it into a mountain of garbage."

Zhou Yi said, "Why not dump those dangerous vehicles into the Dead Sea? That should be simpler, right?"

"Dead light can cause unpredictable mutations."

The big bird shook its wings: "Dumping those scrapped cars into the Dead Sea may cause explosions, some ships have been sunk, and it may also create crazy semi-awakened beings, some of which will spread toxic pollution, causing the land to be poisoned."

"It was only after trying everything and failing that they ultimately did that. Land resources are scarce, and it is not easy to find a safe place to dump harmful garbage. Our Motor City used to play such a role."

Various types of garbage continued to pile up.

Sixty years ago, the garbage mountain was transformed by Overlord Gong into a temporary settlement for the slaves it captured.

In order to survive, the slaves continuously transformed the local area, which slowly led to changes.

They found and recycled the various wastes there, and reassembled the dangerous scrapped vehicles into brand new enhanced vehicles, which gave rise to the name Motor City.

In other words, Overlord Gong did not initially plan to build a slave city.

The birth of Motor City was partly due to Overlord Gong's casual actions, but more so due to the strong desire for survival of many slaves, and the environmental transformation at the cost of bloodshed and death, which led to the unique collective slave system city.

Zhou Yi felt a bit emotional after listening.

Even as a slave, one must demonstrate value and initiative in order to obtain a better environment and conditions.

Half a month later, the freighters of Motor City delivered all the parts for 300 single-person gliders to Sandport. Yuan Tong led people to inspect them one by one, and in the first inspection, all these goods met the established standards.

It took nearly half a month to complete the assembly and test flight of this batch of gliders.

The finished gliders were received by Overlord Extinction's ships, and pilots from Waste Land Company went to provide them with technical guidance, teaching them flight control techniques.

The result was very good.

Overlord Extinction was very satisfied with this: "The Emerald City gliders are simpler and easier to use than expected. Manned gliders have high military and deployment value, and I plan to buy some more."

Zhou Yi could only tell it: "The production of manned gliders is currently insufficient, and we have to wait for a while."

"What a pity. Call me when you have goods, I plan to purchase 100 units."

Overlord Extinction said frankly: "This kind of flying vehicle has a wide range of uses, and the first-mover advantage is great. Combined with my puppet legion, it can produce excellent results."

"You also know that the biggest advantage of the Twin Rivers region is air power. We have a lot of air combat and air raid experience. With the assistance and reconnaissance of the glider fleet, the air superiority will be further increased."

"I plan to have the air force carry the glider fleet to conduct aerial patrols of potential threat groups around the Dead Sea. Gliders will become an important part of long-term patrols."

"In short, hurry up. If I give an extra fee, can you ship faster?"

"…"

Faced with Overlord Extinction's urging, Zhou Yi could only say: "Sorry, it can't be done. Quality control is the first priority, wait a moment."

The manufacturing speed in the Sandport area has also increased to 3 units per day.

This is the current limit.

The reason is that the weaving, installation, testing, and test flight of the core flying silk itself is a complete process.

The airframe, wing cloth, scaffolding, rudder, etc. can be made by skilled workers, but flying silk is a precious new material. Weaving requires patience and care, and you have to explore and improve efficiency bit by bit.

As the Twin Rivers region began to patrol strongly with a glider fleet, this new vehicle produced by Emerald City immediately became a cash cow in the eyes of various merchants.

A large number of merchants flocked to Sandport, trying to get orders from the company through various means.

The reduction in the output and the increase in the price of Emerald Soup and Fire Cup, coupled with the sanctions imposed by the Electromechanical City Group, made many outsiders once skeptical and pessimistic about Waste Land Development Company.

However, the outbreak and popularity of refrigerated boxes gradually restored merchants' confidence in this place.

The birth and official pre-sale of gliders completely broke the previous doubts and once again made the area outside Emerald City bustling with activity. Merchants, workers, and craftsmen from various cities flocked to find opportunities to make money.

After experiencing a continuous decline throughout the summer, the company's business finally stopped its decline and reopened its high-speed rise.

Although the most profitable express delivery center has been curbed, the company's turnover and profits are now far lower than in the past, but it has gradually found a new alternative model, giving the company's employees a boost in confidence.

At this time, a small matter made Zhou Yi feel a headache.

Kestrel said: "I did not pass the review process and was refused entry to Wisdom Cloud for further studies."

It had excellent results in the Zen test, but because the company was sanctioned, the homework it had prepared for a whole year ultimately failed.

Zhou Yi felt a little guilty in his heart.

"I'm sorry for you."

"It's okay."

The drone said: "My prediction result is like this. But after all, I have been preparing for a long time, so I still tried it. The exam results are very good, at least proving that my calculation and learning ability is not bad."

"Snow County often promotes that knowledge has no boundaries, but unfortunately, knowledge holders have positions and boundaries."

Zhou Yi said, "I'll think of a way."

He first contacted the United City.

Kunming Station said after hearing this: "The Electromechanical City side is not feasible. Star Hub also has similar databases and knowledge updates. Find Star Hub voters and you can do it through them."

"Don't you have cooperation with the North Ocean region? They can contact Star Hub and can also do it."

Zhou Yi thought for a while and gave up on this direction.

He still knew too little about Star Hub himself.

According to the two satellites of Maria Hospital, Star Hub will transform various lives into digital voters.

In case Kestrel is tricked and sent to a satellite to work as a data slave, it would be a loss outweighing the gain.

Then Zhou Yi thought of Hundred Schools Plateau.

Overlord Gong happened to be engaged in the education and training industry there.

"If you enroll in a specific school, you only need to pass the exam."

Vulture Gold Mountain said: "It's just that the Hundred Schools Plateau does not provide remote connections, you have to enroll locally."

"No online courses?"

"No."

The red-eyed vulture explained: "Because they don't have their own built-in machine station service, this is a complete supporting system that needs to cover many cities. Furthermore, there is a lot of sensitive information that is inconvenient to save. Discussing it through school courses can also avoid many unnecessary risks."

They do not provide on-the-job further education.

Zhou Yi was a little helpless.

He contacted Qin Xie with a try-it-out mentality.

"That's simple."

Qin Xie said in a relaxed tone: "The Mechanical Knights have a dedicated machine station service, their own independent database, and regularly updated mind maps."

"But the Knights are actually backed by the Kingdom of Heaven, do you mind that?"

"I don't mind."

"Then it's okay."

Qin Xie explained: "The Mechanical Knights have an alien laboratory. It was their laboratory that went to the United City to conduct on-site surveys and tests of the Great Buddha, prisons, and other places."

"The easiest way is to research a certain field of aliens in the name of cooperation between the company and this laboratory. This way, there is a reason to use the Mechanical Knight's basic database."

"I have connections on the Mechanical Knight side and can talk to them, but after all, it is organizational-level cooperation, and both parties have to come up with something real."

He spoke very directly: "As long as you have it, I can get this done. If you are willing, it would be best to have some blockbuster information."

Zhou Yi couldn't help but recall.

Qin Xie can also be regarded as having a prominent family background. His uncle is Yan Zibing, the commander of the Second Fleet of the Dead Sea Knights, and his father, Qin Qiang, is a high-level member of the Mechanical Knights.

Family relations are enough to facilitate this.

Information on building life... he does have some.

After a little thought, Zhou Yi said: "Then tell the Mechanical Knights that I have a technical means to connect different aliens and allow them to communicate internally."

The person on the other end of the communicator exclaimed.

"You are taking out such important technology?"

Qin Xie was shocked: "No, I'm kidding, just take out something that is not so important."

He obviously heard the value of this technology.

"Just this."

Zhou Yi said: "I can pass on our successful experience and the way to build public areas to the Mechanical Knights. But we hope they can also show sincerity."

In fact, this is already old technology.

The United City has been using it for many years, but the Emerald City has made some improvements and deduced and explored the form of public toilets.

This is the part that can be said.

"Wait for me, I will contact them immediately."

Half an hour later, Qin Xie said somewhat tiredly: "It's done. After hearing this, they were like dogs smelling meat, so excited that two researchers have already flown to your Sandport on a business jet. You can discuss the specifics in detail."

"Also, let me tell you first."

"As a sincere response from the laboratory, they will exchange the [Alien Enhancement Technique] for the public area construction technology."

This time it was Zhou Yi's turn to be a little confused: "Alien Enhancement Technique? Can aliens be enhanced?"

"Yes."

Qin Xie said with a smile: "I don't know the specific principles, but according to them, the strength of aliens can be continuously improved, and each alien can reach the A+ level."

"This is an exclusive technology mastered by the Mechanical Knights, and trading it for your public area technology can be considered very sincere."

"Indeed."

Zhou Yi couldn't help but look forward to it.
