Chapter 888 Return to the Village
Taking advantage of the gap in attack, Zhang Tuohai engraved runes on five Gatling guns, automatic logging machines, and automatic mining machines in turn.
The Gatling gun that has been engraved with runes has stronger firepower, higher rate of fire, better cooling efficiency, better wear resistance, and can even slightly adjust the dispersion of the machine gun, thereby improving the utilization rate and killing efficiency of the bullets.
After the runes were engraved on the automatic
After a day of high-intensity work, the drill bit and some gears of the automatic mining machine had been worn out. With this level of wear and tear, it would not last long. After this round of reinforcement, the usable time has been greatly extended.
Moreover, this is only the first level of rune enhancement. The second and third enchants can be performed later to allow these equipment to keep up with his development.
After a round of rune strengthening for all equipment, the working performance of these equipment has been significantly improved a lot. The most obvious thing is that the accumulation speed of various raw materials has increased a lot.
With the raw materials, Zhang Tuohai could let go. With a wave of his hand, he built ten refugee camps and spawned 100 refugees in one go. Of course, he built them after breakfast time, so that he could use them for free for a whole day and save a breakfast.
Zhang Tuohai promoted the first refugees summoned yesterday to be team leaders, with each of them leading ten new refugees to carry out a large-scale construction plan within the base.
As long as there are buildings in the construction list, build them one by one.
Although many of these buildings are of no use to Zhang Tuohai, each building has a hidden attribute, which is prosperity. The more buildings there are, the more prosperous the camp will be. The higher the prosperity of the camp, the greater its influence .
If the camp has a great influence, the territory will be large, and the area Zhang Tuohai can build will become larger.
In this world, you can’t just find a place to build a house if you want to. Instead, the land must belong to you so that you can build on it.
How to make the land belong to you?
You need the influence of your camp to account for more than 50% of the land. Then, the land can be considered to belong to you, and you can build buildings on it.
Building buildings on the ground can also increase the influence on surrounding plots.
However, even if the influence is increased to 100%, do not take it lightly, because the enemy can airdrop troops and destroy the buildings.
After a building is destroyed, the land to which the building belongs will become a neutral land for a short period of time. Both sides can build buildings on it. If the enemy takes the opportunity to build a building, they can take away the land.
Therefore, although influence is important, buildings and defenses must also keep up. Otherwise, no matter how large the influence range is, it will be like a tree without roots.
Zhang Tuohai rapidly upgraded the level of the base yesterday. Today's main goal is to improve the defense level of the base and spread its influence at the same time.
Bring all surrounding areas under your rule, and at the same time accumulate materials in preparation for future expansion.
After arranging the construction plan, Zhang Tuohai picked some fruits from the salad trees and threw them into the car. Then he drove out of the canyon camp and headed towards the village on the edge of the woods.
This time, the journey out of the camp was obviously not as smooth as yesterday. Along the way, Zhang Tuohai saw a few beasts wandering on the road. When they saw Zhang Tuohai's command vehicle, they all looked at him with ill intentions.
However, due to the all-metal shell of the command vehicle, these beasts just watched from afar and did not approach.
Zhang Tuohai, who has experienced thousands of simulations, knows that with the passage of time, these beasts will become more and more aggressive and powerful, and in the later stages they will even be able to smash the shell of a command vehicle with a single slap.
Of course, these are all things that happened later. Now, they can only watch Zhang Tuohai showing off in the car.
Soon, Zhang Tuohai arrived at the small village on the edge of the woods.
Yesterday's small village was still just a circle of wooden fences and a few thatched huts, looking like a primitive tribe.
But today, the small village is surrounded by a stone wall with a trench dug around it. Through the wall, you can vaguely see the green-tiled roofs of the village.
There were several guards standing on the wall. The bows and arrows in the guards' hands had become all-metal mechanical crossbows. They wore iron helmets and leather armor, and looked like professional soldiers.
They seemed to have evolved a lot, but their memories were obviously inherited. When they saw Zhang Tuohai's command vehicle, they did not raise the mechanical crossbows in their hands as if facing a great enemy, but just stared at Zhang Tuohai.
Zhang Tuohai jumped out of the car and said to the guard on the wall: "Please ask the village elder to come out for a moment. I have something to discuss with him."
"Please wait a moment."
A guard jumped down from the wall and ran quickly towards the village.
After a while, an elder dressed in a satin robe, leaning on a cane with obvious carving marks , walked slowly out of the village.
As usual, a timid little girl followed behind him, but unlike the shabby clothes she wore yesterday, she was wearing a red dress today, which was obviously new. Her face also had a little redness, and she didn't look as thin and dry as yesterday.
"Hello, elder. I am a traveler. I just happened to pass by here again today. Yesterday I got some exotic fruits . I can't eat them all by myself, so I brought some here. Please have a taste. Please don't hesitate."
As Zhang Tuohai spoke, he handed the fruit he had just picked to the elder from the back seat of the car.
"Ah, what kind of fruit is this? It's so sweet?"
When the elder saw the fruit in his hand, a look of surprise appeared on his face. Although they were eating natural fruits, to be honest, natural fruits were not evolved specifically for human consumption and would certainly not completely suit human tastes. Whether in terms of nutrition or taste, they could certainly not compare with those fruits that were artificially intervened and cultivated.
To the elders and other indigenous people, the fruit from the salad tree is as delicious as the peaches from heaven.
Seeing the elder's expected look, Zhang Tuohai said with a smile: "If these fruits were not so delicious, I would not have brought them here specially. How about it, not bad, right? I hope our friendship will last forever."
"Friendship, that's right!" The elder seemed to have received some revelation, and quickly took out a black parchment scroll from his arms and handed it to Zhang Tuohai.
A prompt popped up: [Villagers shared with you...]
