Heavy Armoured Truck In Post-apocalyptic World

Chapter 8: A storm is coming

Views:

Shen Cong looked in the mirror and looked at his current image.

He has shaved off all his hair, no one is looking at him, and it is unnecessary to keep his hair, so he looks more bald. The originally unshaven beard has been clean shaven, and the twenty-two-year-old Shen Cong has regained his fair and handsome appearance.

Even if I have gained a lot of muscle, I still look thin.

But this body of 1.77 meters contains infinite power at this moment, and the changes brought to him by the activity continue every day. King Kong can absorb free activity from the outside world and then exchange it to Shen Cong. Shen Cong can also eat wolf meat himself to absorb the activity.

What activity brings to him is an overall improvement in physical fitness. Strength, speed, agility, endurance, and five senses are all strengthened - the strength is as strong as an ox; he can run 100 meters in less than eight seconds; his agility is better than gymnastics; his endurance He never felt tired at all; no disturbance could escape his ears.

Only the spiritual aspect seems to be an area that cannot be touched by the active. Shen Cong needs to hone his willpower, and then strengthen communication with the King Kong, and gradually become able to control the King Kong like an arm and a finger.

As Shen Cong stayed firm every day and insisted on using his willpower to guide King Kong to absorb free activity in the morning, noon and evening, the activity of King Kong accumulated more and more. If the destruction storm just stopped more than half a month ago, the activity of the King Kong could not cover the entire body, and at most 20% of the body was active.

So now the King Kong has completed active injection into at least 85% of its parts.

There are some complex circuits and devices left, and Shen Cong is also guiding the King Kong to alloy them bit by bit.

Alloying is a process of injecting activity. The essence of the material structure of the components after alloying has not changed. In other words, the capacitor is still a capacitor, the diode is still a diode, and the function has also not changed. It just has the ability to recover on its own, and its power is greatly improved.

Under the guidance of Shen Cong's willpower, the components can also be slowly reshaped.

In other words, as long as Shen Cong has enough willpower and sufficient knowledge reserves, he can even evolve all the components into the most perfect form.

In other words, it is possible for the King Kong to continue to evolve.

As long as he persists, Shen Cong can evolve the King Kong into an aircraft carrier.

Of course, that's theory. Now he doesn't even dare to shape a complicated component because it requires a lot of knowledge. Even a talented person with the Midas touch cannot create a computer out of thin air. What is the working principle of a computer, what is the structure of each device, and how the system should be set up are all not imagined out of thin air.

So now Shen Cong's guidance on the evolution of the King Kong is mainly on the basic structure, such as transforming the external armor into a streamlined shape and replacing weak parts with stronger metal.

At the same time, we actively guide the King Kong to conduct alloying, striving to cover 100% of the body with activity and connect it as a whole, so that there is no risk of natural wear and tear of the machine.

"And I have a hunch that when the active area reaches 100%, there may be a breakthrough change." Shen Cong thought.

This feeling has no reason, it belongs to the sixth sense, and there is no explanation for it.

In fact, it has been nearly two months since the end of the world. Shen Cong, apart from figuring out some active applications and discovering a few mutant monsters, still knows nothing about this apocalypse.

Where do meteor showers come from

What has become of the world

Causes of evolutionary variation

What is activity

Where is the way forward

All answers are unknown, waiting for Shen Cong to slowly explore - the prerequisite is to survive.

In the underground warehouse of the water plant, Shen Cong has moved all the bottled water that cannot be taken away to the first warehouse compartment. Then the door was locked and a long-wave transmitter was placed inside for positioning.

Then backfill the sand and gravel at the entrance.

He was about to leave the ruined county town of Wuwei and head to Hefei, the provincial capital. He wanted to find some diesel there. When the end of the world comes, survival becomes the highest goal, and materials are the objects of daily work.

The exhaust pipe spews smoke.

The motor roars.

Melodious music floated out from the speakers, and Shen Cong hummed along.

“On-a-dark-desert-highway/Driving on a dark desert highway.”

"cool-wind-in-my-hair/The cool breeze blows through my hair."

"warm-smell-of-colitas/strong smell of marijuana."

"rising-up-through-the-air/radiating in the air."

"Up-ahead-in-the-distance/look up into the distance."

"i-saw-a-shimmering-light/I saw a faint light..."

The King Kong sailed toward the northeast toward the sun and left the ruins of Wuwei County.

Sitting in the cab, Shen Cong was listening to familiar songs and looking at the scenery along the road on the electronic screen, feeling a little lost. Two months ago, this place was still very prosperous and bustling with traffic. Now, only the ruins of the walls are left buried among the yellow sand and gravel.

Boom.

Suddenly, the ruins of a building collapsed as the King Kong passed by, sending up dust all over the sky.

"This should be the Century Building." Shen Cong slowed down, looked at the ruins of the building, and compared it with the radar map, he saw that this was the Century Building that used to be the seat of Wuwei County. Under the Century Building was a hardware street, and Shen Cong often came here. Purchase various types of spare parts.

After a pause, the King Kong continued to move forward.

Looking at the direction he was heading, Shen Cong unconsciously said to himself: "Going further ahead, we will reach Xingyuan Community..."

Soon we arrived at the ruins of Xingyuan Community. It was no longer a ruin. It was just a flat ground paved with gravel. There was no trace of the fact that this was originally a lively community with six-story buildings one after another.

Shen Cong has special feelings for Xingyuan Community.

Because he has lived in Xingyuan Community for more than ten years. After his parents made money by driving goods, they bought a house in Xingyuan Community. Shen Cong, who had been staying with his grandparents in the countryside and going to school, also moved to Xingyuan Community. This was the first house their family bought. However, Shen Cong sold the house a few years after his parents passed away.

He sold all the seven houses left to him by his parents in order to raise funds to build the King Kong.

If the end of the world hadn't really come, he would have been a psychotic prodigal.

ironnically.

Now it has become foresight.

Taking a deep look, as if to find traces of the past, he gave up again: "Phew, there is nothing to feel sorry for, let's go..."

After a while.

The ruins of Wuwei County completely disappeared from the screen of the King Kong, and Shen Cong and his car drove into the yellow sand again.

There is no GPS or BDS. The driving route of the King Kong is completely calibrated by compass and radar map.

Driving on this kind of terrain full of yellow sand can drive people crazy from the bottom of their hearts. Fortunately, Shen Cong is not an ordinary person. He is used to enduring this kind of loneliness.

Close your eyes and rest your mind, your willpower has been projected onto King Kong.

Sensing that 85% of the parts are occupied by activity, Shen Cong's willpower swims like a fish among these activities, and then gathers the activity to impact the remaining 15% or so to perform alloying.

This is a delicate job, and in nearly two months, Shen Cong has only completed 85% of it.

However, now that the wolf meat supplements the activity, this progress should be accelerated.

Activity is the biggest surprise in the last days.

Suddenly, the dashboard beeped.

Shen Cong suddenly opened his eyes and saw that the compass on the dashboard was sounding the alarm. The compass, which was originally pointing firmly at the north, was now spinning around without an accurate direction.

"Something's wrong!"

Shen Cong immediately thought of a crisis that was about to happen. This was a normal reaction for patients suffering from persecution paranoia. Immediately afterwards, he saw that the light on the display screen on the right was dim. Of course, this was not a problem with the display screen, but the picture captured by the camera was dim.

Press a few buttons to adjust the height of the camera and aim it at the sky on the right.

On the distant horizon, dark clouds were rushing towards me. Inside those dark clouds, there were thunder and lightning, as if a thunderstorm was coming out.

"storm!"

Shen Cong instantly thought of the doomsday storm that had been blowing for a month.

Quickly stop the King Kong, control and extend the eight outriggers, insert them into the gravel and yellow sand to fix the King Kong, then lower the 15a radar, close the vents, disconnect the power source that easily attracts lightning, raise the lightning rod, and ensure that the lightning rod is The bottom has penetrated deep into the earth.

Turn off the heat.

Waiting for the storm to come.

After doing all this, a minute later, the originally brilliant sun was obscured by dark clouds, and the bright sky suddenly became dark.

Darker than night.
