Chapter 23 Survival
"The situation is okay. The concentration of bacteria in the body has completely dropped."
Tang Rao said, while Ellie nodded and was observing Werther's cells in the microscope. Everyone was very surprised at Werther's resurrection, because this completely violated the common sense of biology.
Werther was indeed dead, and the seven people present could confirm this.
"Don't you feel anything special?"
Tang Rao asked, and Werther shook his head. He didn't remember much.
"I just remember that I was very tired, and my body was a little unconscious, and then I fell asleep. When I woke up, I saw you guys eating. Can you get me something to eat?"
Everyone laughed. Witte was still a little weak. Deguna and Jean carried him out of a medical room. There were a lot of old-fashioned medical equipment in it, but when placed like this, it was very difficult. precious.
"We'll have a good rest for a few days and then tally up everything in the base. Then we can start executing the planting plan."
Soon Gu Yi and Li Chu found some wine from a container, and they came over with the wine. Everyone decided to have a good drink. They had been looking for a shelter that could stabilize them for a long time, and now everything was over. Already achieved.
"Thanks to everyone for the hard work along the way."
Gu Yi raised the wine in his hand, and everyone picked up a bottle of wine and started drinking. There are many rooms around this hall. Some of the beddings in them are still unopened and vacuum-sealed. You just need to go there later. Just choose your own room.
"Tomorrow I will try my best to break into this system first, and then change the system to what we need."
Li Chu said, Gu Yi nodded.
"Actually, there is no need to be so anxious. Although the system here is very sophisticated, it is already decades old."
Li Chu shook his head.
"Systems from decades ago may not be easy to break, but may be very troublesome. Many parts may require physical improvements to achieve integration, which will always be a relatively complicated task."
Li Chu frowned slightly, then he stood up and said.
"Take me directly to the central control room, and I'll watch it while drinking. After all, I like working like this, just by myself."
Gu Yi nodded, and the two left the material storage room, walked directly through the hall, and came to a 5-meter-wide passage with many small doors on both sides, and a double door on the left. At the entrance of the central control room, Gu Yi quickly used his DNA authentication to open the door. After entering, there was a staircase.
The thickness of the walls is a bit exaggerated, at least one meter, and they are made of alloy. The steps are also made of metal. The entire central control room is like an iron box. After entering, you can see a large number of columnar metal objects, with grid transistors on them, and some Computers are lined up all around.
After Li Chu opened a computer, he really needed a password, but Gu Yi didn't know it. Moreover, the password was 13 digits, and it was impossible to crack it with a current laptop.
Li Chu connected his laptop to the host, and soon a red box appeared on the laptop, and strings of green and white codes continued to appear.
"It seems like the situation is much more complicated than we thought."
Li Chu frowned after seeing the code. Although Gu Yi was not an expert in this field, he knew something.
"It seems to be very troublesome to crack."
"Unless you have a quantum computer, it would take tens of thousands of years to crack the 13-digit password with current equipment."
As Li Chu said this, Gu Yi laughed awkwardly.
"However, I have many ways to crack it, but most of these systems have defense mechanisms. The entire base may be paralyzed or even self-destructed, so I can only test it by mirroring it. Test it first."
Gu Yi stopped talking and walked to a lounge chair nearby. After lying down, he took a big sip.
"Wake me up if you have a problem. I'm too sleepy and need to take a nap."
Soon Li Chu discovered the problem. This integrated system was too complicated, not only internally, but also externally. This system was also connected to the base's defense weapons. Once there was an internal problem, some places would automatically Destruction, this is what Li Chu least wants to see.
Now the only person in the base with unimpeded authority is Gu Yi. It is very inconvenient for them to go to certain places in many cases, and it is almost impossible to enter their identity information, because in the past they were all over the world and should All of them have been recorded. They are not from this country, so naturally they cannot be recognized by the system.
Li Chu was still thinking about what to do. Even when he was completely drunk, he still couldn't think of a way. Soon he closed his eyes, and the image of his grandmother, sister, wife and children appeared in his mind.
In a daze, Li Chu seemed to be back in the underground room of the science and technology seminar. Everything there was so reassuring, because his grandmother, sister and wife were all there, and his son was only 3 years old.
Li Chu hugged his wife very affectionately, his son was playing with toys beside him, and his grandma was cooking with his sister in the kitchen. Everything was so warm. However, with a burst of fire, everything was instantly shattered and destroyed.
Li Chu woke up with a start, sweating profusely. He swallowed and looked around with a dry mouth. After seeing a bottle of water, Li Chu picked it up and drank it. It was already 10 o'clock in the morning.
Gu Yi, who heard the noise, ran up.
"What's the matter?"
Li Chu shook his head.
"There is no way to solve it for the time being. Let's go around and see what's in this base first."
The eight people gathered together soon, and Witt's body recovered a lot. They found a room that could be used as a seed laboratory. Ellie and Witt planned to cultivate the seeds they brought as soon as possible.
The remaining six people followed Gu Yi around. Some rooms were filled with equipment, as well as some weapons and ammunition. Next to the empty hall, they found a room where dozens of mountain vehicles and tanks were stored.
The ammunition was very sufficient, and this room could also lead to the outside, but they had no use for these weapons now.
Many of the accumulated materials are very useful. Now they have to determine the electricity and water power. The electricity is generated by some solar panels on the top of the mountain, and the water power is drawn from the foot of a nearby mountain, because the area used to be covered with ice and snow all year round, but the water from the foot of the mountain will enter an underground reservoir after melting.
Basically, the water source can be fully guaranteed. Now what they want to find most is some tools. They must reclaim the ground in the cave, but it is obviously not possible to reclaim it by manpower, and they must rely on the power of machines.
And some soil outside that can grow plants is also what they need. It is not far from the disappearance of the sun. They must complete a successful round of planting and harvesting before the sun disappears.
Although the food in the food warehouse is enough for the eight of them to live for many years, it is impossible to eat up all the food.
"There are forklifts here."
In a room, they found a lot of forklifts. If this kind of car is slightly modified, it can be used as a machine for plowing the land. And Li Chu also said that if AI is used directly to replace manual labor, their efficiency will rise immediately.
Deguna and Gene went to check immediately. After confirming the model and horsepower, they immediately found a toolbox and began to disassemble a forklift. Today they planned to finalize the design and then find the corresponding parts for modification. The helicopter parked in the center of the cave was a bit of a hindrance.
They also had to find a way to move the helicopter away. There was a place on the top of the cave that could be opened, and the helicopter could fly out, but it was unnecessary for them now.
These helicopters have not been maintained for a long time, and whether they can fly is still a problem. There is an oil storage tank here. The amount of oil in it is still good, enough for some equipment that needs to consume gasoline to use for a while, but gasoline is an extremely precious chemical material in their eyes, so it is most important to use it to support agriculture.
"Let's go down and take a look."
.........
At this time, a lot of canned houses have been erected on the grassland, with more than 60 rooms, each of which can sleep 4 people. Allen distributed them all to his men.
The situation is already very stable. The cultivated land is still being cultivated, and the crops produced in the land are almost enough to meet the food needs of more than 600 people. In just a few months, they will become extremely rich.
Now there is a thorny problem. All the men who stayed in the city below have come here, and many of them are injured. As expected, as soon as he left with his men, the gangs in the city united and swallowed up the rest of them in one breath.
Only 11 of the 30 confidants left came back, some died, and some had already joined other gangs.
"Point Guard Here"
Alan was not betrayed by his men, or everything he had in the city was taken away, but he realized that the situation had deteriorated further, and the city should be finished soon, and more and more people would come.
"I think it's better to prepare for defense in advance."
Jed on the side said, and Allen nodded. The two of them will discuss many things now, and their cooperation is very pleasant.
"Gene and the others talked about this problem when they were here."
"Very foresighted, we have to have people build defense facilities near the road leading into this grassland, and once they come up, we can just attack them directly."
Jed hesitated for a moment and said.
"This grassland is too big."
"It's a very simple problem, we just need to set up some restrictions. We may not be able to defend other places, but we must defend the land near our reclamation."
Alan said, got up and left the tent, and Jed followed him.
"Most of them can only come from the east, and the direction of our reclamation is the west with the lake as the center. We will keep reclaiming until we find a new water source, and then continue to reclaim next to the water source."
Jed nodded, and the two decided to form a guard team. Now they have confiscated all the guns in the hands of ordinary people. Some people who are unwilling to hand over their weapons are either driven away or killed.
Although Jed felt that this method was inappropriate, there was no other way now. They had not done a good job in this regard when they first came here, which led to the signs of chaos. If it weren't for Alan and his men coming here, this place would be in chaos sooner or later, and Gene and his men seemed to have anticipated it.
"There is one thing you must promise me, Alan."
Alan laughed.
"Never go to war with me if we want to gain a foothold here."
Alan nodded in agreement.
The two looked at the cultivation land that was still being reclaimed. Now some people with some skills have begun to cultivate seeds. The methods left by the scientists are simple and effective, which really helped them a lot.
Now many technicians are imitating them to make a water storage car. After all, the domestic water consumption has increased sharply now, and living directly by the lake will easily pollute the water source. Alan has ordered that no one is allowed to live by the lake.
The lake is the resource they rely on for survival. Once the water quality is polluted, they will be finished.
Alan also ordered a group of people with casting technology to directly use the gasoline they brought to dissolve some materials and then cast them into farm tools. The process was not smooth at the beginning. Fortunately, after wasting some gasoline, they successfully created farm tools, so that the speed of reclamation will be faster.
Before reclamation, they used some metal objects to reclaim a little bit, which was too slow in both efficiency and speed.
"You go to the canning house and watch first."
Jed nodded and turned away. At this time, a man who was participating in the reclamation in the distance came quickly. Allen deliberately walked to the back of the tent. The man came to the back of the tent and said.
"The situation is not very good. Small groups have formed."
What Allen fears most is such things. Countless small groups will cause big problems for the whole. He thought for a while and said.
"You continue to observe the situation first. If some small groups are too much, just deal with them directly."
Alan hates such things very much, because now is not an era where a few people hold together for warmth, but they must hold together to survive and become an efficient and united group to accomplish most things.
Many people surrendered their weapons on the surface, but that was forced. Many of them were dissatisfied in their hearts. This would become the root cause of problems for a group. Allen planned to solve this problem first, and then promulgate certain regulations. Whoever violated it would be dealt with. Only in this way could everything be stabilized step by step.
But once the regulations are promulgated, their people may also violate them. This is also a difficult decision for Allen. What if their people violated it? If punished, it would shake their own foundation.
"It's really difficult to survive in human society!"
