Volume 1 Three Months After the End of the World Chapter 57 [Primary Industry II]
While everyone else was resting, Shen Jin started building a "Thumb Lab" in the open space!
According to Fu Wei's requirements, only 100 square meters of space is needed.
"Go ahead, Alloy Cube!"
After some work by Shen Jin, a slightly complicated inverted bowl-shaped building was completed.
By the way, I made a few windows with glass, paved the floor with white tiles with gray patterns, made a bedroom and office on the second floor of the laboratory, installed a computer and an iron stove, and placed a cubic meter of coal in the corner.
Then a bunch of broken experimental equipment was thrown in, filling up one floor. It would probably take a lot of time to clean them up.
Connect the power and you’re done!
The construction of the entire laboratory took only 1 hour!
The ability to block is born for construction, as if it is a miracle from the Creator, and all the rules of time and space are changed.
"Perhaps, compared to superpowers and gene locks, there is still more room for development of the cube ability!"
Shen Jin remembered a block-based combat method he had experimented with before...
"If I had more power, I could use my cube-like ability in battle. But now it's still far from enough..."
The next day, Yang Ao and Fu Wei looked at the laboratory that had been built on the ground with their mouths wide open.
"Aba aba aba?"
"Ababa!"
Especially the cold grey alloy shell on the outside, which made Fu Wei feel that it was not something that could be made by someone with earth-related abilities. "Brother Jin, you haven't awakened your metal ability, have you? Why do I feel that this material looks familiar..."
Fu Wei touched the wall and said, "If I'm not mistaken, this is the tungsten steel alloy wall in our previous laboratory. It can block high-speed flying shells and is often used in the armor of main battle tanks!"
They both immediately understood why Shen Jin had turned back on his own.
“Good fellow!”
Shen Jin had no idea that this hard alloy had such a profound origin. If he had known earlier, he would have used less of it...
Then the two followed Shen in and took a look around. The facilities and rooms inside were arranged according to Fu Wei's design drawings.
Fu Wei was extremely satisfied, especially after seeing the [iron furnace] and learning that this thing could directly burn glass, he almost knelt down to Shen Jin.
"Mr. Shen, it's hard to believe that someone could build such a good laboratory in one night. Is this the power of supernatural powers? It's really exciting!"
Fu Wei seemed to have discovered some new world and looked at Shen Jin's body with full interest.
"Ahem... please don't look at me like that. If you want to study superpowers, it's better to study this than me !"
Shen Jin placed a zombie blood crystal on the table. "A friend of mine told me that this thing is helpful for awakening superpowers, but I still don't know how to use it!"
The outer shell of blood crystal is harder than iron and is difficult to open without the help of certain tools.
Fu Wei picked it up and observed it carefully in the sunlight coming through the window. "Why do I feel... there are living creatures in it? The liquid is flowing abnormally. Could it be some kind of microorganism? No, I need a high-density microscope!"
Fu Wei looked excited, with the enthusiasm of a scientific researcher emerging on his face, as if he had discovered some new element in nature.
"If it contains what you call 'energy', then there must be a carrier that can withstand the energy! I think the matter of the genetic medicine can be put aside for the time being. I must first find out the source of the 'energy' inside. This is so beautiful! Biu Special or not~!"
Shen Jin and Yang Ao looked at each other in silence. The G-spot of scientists is really different from that of ordinary people...
"As for a microscope, I don't have one. I'll bring it back to you when I see it outside." Shen Jin really didn't know where to find this thing, so he could only agree casually.
"University! The school's biology and chemistry laboratories all have this thing. We sponsored the laboratory of YS University last year, and it has a high-density microscope," Fu Wei blurted out.
"Hiss... That's too far from us. We are in the east of the city, and YS School is in the west. It spans the entire city... Even if I have earth-related abilities, it's still too difficult and dangerous!"
"Well... there's an old microscope in the library. We can use it if we get it over here!"
Fu Wei looked conflicted, as if the old-fashioned microscope could not satisfy his desire for research, but among the places he knew, the library was the closest.
"Okay... I'll go take a look when I have time!"
Shen Jin was familiar with the map of Q City and knew that the library was not far away and not in the center of the city, so he could give it a try.
Fu Wei here was completely immersed in his research, and he called Zhao Mingkai from inside to help him repair the equipment. "Huh? The person that Old Fu said could repair the circuit turned out to be him..."
As Zhao Mingkai entered the company with him, Shen Jin really couldn't remember any maintenance skills he had.
Of course, it is also possible that he is too capable and Zhao Mingkai's presence is not apparent...
After lunch, the expected system reminder sound came on time.
[Ding~! Complete the "Build a Micro Human Settlement" mission, and get 20 World Coins as a reward]
[Gain: World Coins x 20]
[Ding~! The "Daily Tasks" module is enabled. You can obtain world coins and resources by completing daily tasks.]
As the system prompt sound ended, a new task immediately appeared, leaving Shen Jin no time to rest.
[Ding~! New mission]
【Mission: Win the hearts of the people】
[Requirement: Obtain 20 sincere thanks from people in your settlement]
[Mission Reward: 15 World Coins, 5 Diamonds]
[Current progress: 0/20]
[Mission Description: Only by gaining the true gratitude of the people in the territory can you be considered a qualified leader, rather than an exploiter]
Shen Jin felt a toothache when he saw the new task.
"It's too hasty. It's too early to say that..."
Shen Jingang had just told Yang Ao to kick those people out, but now he was slapped in the face by the system at lightning speed. These people in the company will have to continue to be tools for a while.
"Twenty sincere thanks? If I send cookies to Liu Dalang every day, will I finish it quickly?"
Shen Jin didn't know how the system determined "true gratitude", but the task didn't seem too difficult anyway.
"Now that I have 40 world coins, I can upgrade the industrial module!"
When opening the system's module interface, [Craftsman's Soul] and [Food Craftsmanship] are still in a gray state, indicating that the [World Line] is missing and cannot be turned on.
[Ding~! Do you want to spend 30 world coins to upgrade the " Industrial Module"?]
"yes!"
[“Primary Industry I” upgraded to “Primary Industry II”]
[Unlock: powder machine, extractor , compressor, solar distillation machine, electric heater, low-voltage transformer, charging station, etc.]
Before Shen Jin could study the newly unlocked industrial items, an angry roar came from outside the wall.
“Woooooooooooooooooooo!!”
Then there was a continuous roar of large numbers of ordinary zombies.
"Oh no! Zombies are coming!"
Shen Jin hurriedly used the intercom to call Yang Ao out. The two of them climbed to the top of the wall and watched two L-shaped zombies and dozens of ordinary zombies pounding the wall.
Stone powder fell down, but due to the thickness of 3 meters, these stone walls were extremely strong and could not be shaken for the time being.
"What's going on? We've almost cleared out all the zombies around here, so where did this huge wave of zombies appear?"
"Brother Jin, look at how crazy the zombies are. This doesn't seem like a normal attack... Logically speaking, the zombies shouldn't attack us so actively. Is there something here that attracts them?"
Shen Jin and Yang Ao felt very strange, as if this group of zombies came specifically to attack them.
"Don't worry about why for now. There is a big problem right now. How are we going to kill so many of them?"
Two people who had no means of long-range attack stood on the wall and fell into deep thought...
