"That's about right. Now the Red Alliance's demand for various supplies has eased."
"Wait, you mean the supplies have been eased?"
"Yes, have you heard recently that the Red Alliance has no resources?"
Major Lu Wei nodded and asked.
"Now that you mention it, it seems that I haven't heard of any shortage of supplies recently."
"That's because everyone is desperately trying to obtain resources in the other world, and they are constantly transferring them to the Red Alliance. Simply put, the Red Alliance is now frantically absorbing resources from various worlds. It's not just this world that is supplying mineral resources to the Red Alliance. The eight major families and the KPI department are all responsible for their own worlds. The worlds they are responsible for will produce different resources, some are food, some are medicine, etc. The Red Alliance relies on the resources supplied by these worlds to gradually stabilize the situation. Apart from anything else, you should know how many resources our original world has, right?"
"I know this, because in previous wars, resources were already scarce!"
"Not only that, our Red Alliance's largest material reserve area, District 8, was also severely damaged. Although it was saved, it is no different from being destroyed. For a while, it simply could not produce much material. Logically, shouldn't the food supply collapse and the great famine come? But have you heard of the accident?"
"Before the incident in District 8, there was a period of time when food prices were extremely high and very scarce. But then there was no news about this at all, and there was no collapse."
"You should also know about the fall of Black Plains City and Missy City, as well as their relocation, right?"
"Know!"
"So many people need food, medicine, and shelter. How much material support will that require?"
“Astronomical.”
"So did you manage to survive in the end?"
"Yes!"
"In fact, these are all the Red Alliance's desperate support behind the scenes. Let me tell you, the people who resettled those two cities, even when the Red Alliance was at its peak, might not have been able to come up with so many supplies. This shows how desperate we are in the other world! Now in the parliament, although those congressmen and bigwigs are still crying poor, it's because they feel the pain. In the end, who didn't pay out?"
"Yeah, it hurts for everyone to take out something."
Shen Qiu replied with some emotion.
"Let me tell you, the people below don't understand, and they don't comprehend why we are trying so hard to open up wasteland in another world. In fact, it's because we have no choice but to do this. Otherwise, how can we have the strength to get things out at the critical moment?"
"Oh, I understand, I understand. It's not easy. It's not easy for anyone."
Shen Qiu more or less understood what Lu Wei said. When they were attacked, no one came to rescue them. They were desperately trying to obtain resources and find a way to survive, but they were not understood.
It is actually difficult for both sides, and it is even more difficult for the Speaker of the Parliament who is caught in the middle.
"Shen Qiu, do you know what the chairman of the parliament told us before we left when we conquered the other world?"
"you say."
"I still remember what he said: Only if we unite together can the Red Alliance have a bright future and hope for everything!"
When Major Lu Wei said this, he looked somewhat excited and yearning.
"Uh-huh."
Shen Qiu nodded heavily. After hearing what Major Lu Wei said, he also saw the united side of all the members of the Red Alliance.
…
After a long time.
Shen Qiu rode a three-wheeled motorcycle and brought Lu Wei and others to the KS special stronghold on the outskirts of Inodian.
Lu Wei and others jumped off the three-wheeled vehicle one after another.
They thanked Shen Qiu.
"Thank you so much. If we hadn't met you, we might have died today."
"It's just a small matter."
Shen Qiu responded readily.
"All good things must come to an end. We are leaving now! I hope to see you again in the future."
Lu Wei and others waved to Shen Qiu.
"Bye-Bye!"
After saying goodbye, Shen Qiu stepped on the accelerator and continued driving forward.
Drive another fifty kilometers and you will reach the Enodian stronghold.
On the wide road, Shen Qiu began to encounter armored vehicles and transport vehicles of peculiar styles, and dragonfly-shaped helicopters flew past in the sky from time to time.
Shen Qiu even saw some people setting up simple stalls on the roadside, on which were placed various picked up industrial parts and some supplies.
At this moment, Shen Qiu was a little dazed. He even had an illusion that he was not in another world, but in the territory of the Red Alliance.
Shen Qiu became more and more curious and expectant about the Inodian stronghold. What kind of place would that be
Just like that, dozens of minutes later, Shen Qiu rode his three-wheeled motorcycle and successfully arrived above the Enodian underground city.
What came into view was a dilapidated mechanical city, with collapsed buildings and a large number of damaged structures. Even the hardened concrete ground was full of potholes.
But even such a machinery city is unusually lively, and vehicles and people can be seen passing by everywhere.
There are also soldiers patrolling and guarding the edge of the city.
Shen Qiu called up the shared map, found the nearest entrance to the Enodian underground city, Entrance No. 7, and drove towards there.
According to the information, the surface of the Enodian Underground City is not a safe base. There are still dangers on the surface from time to time, and even scary monsters occasionally pass by. The real safety is the underground city below.
On the way to Entrance No. 7, Shen Qiu felt that there were more and more people and vehicles around him.
He took a quick look around and found that only less than one-fifth of the people and cars around him were wearing military uniforms. The rest were of all kinds and it was impossible to tell their identities.
The most outrageous thing was that Shen Qiu saw a man riding a modified motorcycle with a large box on the back, speeding past in a hurry.
The man's clothes had advertisements on them.
"Quick errand runner, contact number ＊＊＊＊."
When Shen Qiu saw this scene, his eyes almost popped out. There actually was such a private errand running organization here.
Just when Shen Qiu was in a daze, he finally arrived at entrance number 7.
This scene shocked Shen Qiu deeply. He saw five giant steel lifting platforms with a diameter of 100 meters in front of him, rising and falling back and forth.
Each steel lift can accommodate thousands of people at a time, as well as various heavy transport vehicles going up and down.
However, all those who want to take the lift must undergo identity verification.
A team of one hundred elite soldiers is stationed here, and each soldier is fully equipped with black armor.
Shen Qiu waited in line obediently and soon it was his turn.
"Identification, please."
a young soldier asked ably.
Shen Qiu took out his KPI certificate and handed it over. The other party verified it, looked at Shen Qiu and then spoke.
"Come in."
"Thanks."
Shen Qiu then drove his three-wheeled motorcycle to one of the lifting platforms.
After waiting for the platform to be crowded with people and vehicles.
Bang!
The entire mechanical platform began to descend.
