Doomsday Bunker Upgrade

If you leave the three towns, you can't seem to see the prosperous city along the way.

In fact, along the route of the G318 national highway, there are indeed no big cities along the way.

Because the route chosen by Chen Xin travels through the mountainous area, there are no more developed cities in this area, and the more developed cities in E Province itself are either distributed in the west of E Province or concentrated along the Yangtze River.

This does not overlap with the direction Chen Xin wants to move forward, so it is not unusual for him to see the city.

The scenery along the way is still similar to the previous road, it is pitch black everywhere, and all the sight is covered with snow.

Reaching out from the workbench, he picked up a piece of dried fruit delivered by the staff of Hubei Province and threw it into his mouth. Chen Xin was reluctant to chew, but sipped the taste of that piece of dried fruit, quite nostalgic.

Seriously, this seems to be the first time Chen Xin has eaten fruit after the disaster. Although it is just dried fruit, it is already a very rare thing.

Just eating dried fruits, recalling the appearance of the three towns and the dark scenes along the way, Chen Xin still felt a huge difference.

In large cities, the country has already begun post-disaster reconstruction, and ordinary small and medium-sized cities have recovered from the disaster and have begun to actively resume production.

Because the country, the army, and the police still exist, everything is not as bad as expected.

But what should the situation be like in the countryside far from the city?

Chen Xin didn't know and didn't investigate, but if he inferred from the sights he has seen and the information he has, I am afraid that the farther away from the city, the worse the situation will be, right?

After all, the farther away from the city, the fewer places that can be called underground bunkers before the disaster, and most of them are probably just the cellars of farmers.

Even in the three months before the disaster, the state urgently built shelters in villages and towns. Although most rural residents have a place to escape from previous disasters, the time for the construction of those shelters is already very tight. It is difficult to say that a sufficient number of shelters have been built and that every shelter can provide the necessary living conditions.

Lack of food and clothing, medical services and medicine shortages, insufficient electricity and fresh water supplies... Chen Xin can count out a lot of possible problems without even thinking about it.

Especially for the lack of oxygen that occurred in his city before, the ventilation of the small refuge may be better, plus there are only one or two floors, maybe the depth is not enough, there will be no problems such as carbon dioxide deposition, but the same Refuges dug not deep enough can hardly have good insulation effect.

Even if the temperature can be kept as low as possible, if there are not enough heating facilities inside, it will quickly cool down and become like a huge ice cellar.

Although compared to directly facing the low temperature of minus 30 or 40 degrees, having a refuge to block the cold has allowed many people to survive, but under low temperature people will need more high-calorie food to maintain body temperature, and a low temperature environment Subordinates are also more likely to get sick.

And what are the consequences of these two... Chen Xin, who has played the game "Age of Ice and Vapor", knows clearly that once the number of hunger and disease reaches a certain level, riots and dissatisfaction will breed.

In the game, riots will occur only when the people die of sickness and starvation to a certain degree of dissatisfaction, and the managers will be driven away, but in reality, I am afraid that many problems and contradictions will erupt when someone starts to die of illness, making things uncontrollable.

This also caused Chen Xin to worry about his parents. They lived in their hometown with their relatives. There was only a county seat, and their parents and relatives did not live in the city.

Although the people who live together are relatives in the family, they have lived together for several generations before the disaster, and even the ancestral hall dedicated to the ancestors is the same. It is not to say that any mess happened, and Chen Xin also deliberately before the disaster. They explained how they should hoard supplies and build shelters, but Chen Xin was still full of worries.

I was just worried that Chen Xin would not be able to go faster. He is now moving faster than he expected. After the three towns, the whole journey has already been halfway, and the time spent starts from when he started. Five or six days have passed.

This is already much faster than Chen Xin had estimated. At his current speed, he is sure to arrive in Anhui within five days. Counting the return time, he can rush back in almost a month.

Even if there is anything to deal with after receiving the parents, it will be delayed for a few days at most, and there will not be much change.

Thinking of this, Chen Xin felt relieved again.

Now he is the only one in the car. Chen Xin must find a way to adjust his emotions so that he is not too impatient. Otherwise, although the car can accelerate, it is also dangerous.

This can be seen very clearly from the road completely covered with snow in front of Chen Xin.

The road in front of us was supposed to be built on the mountain. The road dug on the mountain has a mountain wall on one side and a valley on the other side.

But now as the snow covers the entire road, there is no trace of the road ahead. The snow has turned the entire **** into a whole, making it impossible to see where the original road is.

"The snow is too thick!" Chen Xin looked at the snow in front of him, frowning, thinking about how to cross this section of road.

The road is covered with snow, and it is impossible to take the original road unless Chen Xin can clear the snow on the road.

But Chen Xin has the skill and energy to clean up the snow, so he might as well find a way to change roads or upgrade his car so that it can drive on this slope-like snow.

Although according to the design, even on such a sloping slope, this crawler-type chassis has enough grip to ensure that the vehicle does not slip into the valley, but it is a bit too risky to drive in that way. If you are not careful, you will directly fall into the bottom. in the valley.

Chen Xin hesitated and let the two reconnaissance drones fly. He planned to scan the entire surrounding terrain to see if there could be a smooth place for him to pass.

Although there are mountains all around here, the mountains are not steep and steep. There are still relatively flat places in the valley that can be passed through.

It's just that compared to the original road, the obvious journey from the valley is more winding.

But now Chen Xin has only this choice, unless he wants to spend more time on the other side of the highway.

Taking a high-speed can only be a compelling choice. Although the high-speed route is straighter and the road has less ups and downs, building a highway in such a place full of mountains must be full of bridges and tunnels.

The tunnel is fine, but the bridge...

Recalling the collapsed bridge he had seen during his journey, Chen Xin directly let himself give up this plan.

After all, no matter how good Yan Nation's infrastructure is, the infrastructure madman can't build a road bridge that can withstand the impact of meteorites without collapsing.

Soon, the UAV sent the scanned results back to the map on the operation console, and displayed them in the form of color blocks.

Looking at the yellow and red areas on the hillside, Chen Xin could only cast his eyes on the relatively gentle green area in the valley. While controlling the drone to continue scanning forward, he also restarted the car and moved along. The marking of the green block continues.

There is no danger in scanning while walking in this way, but it also makes Chen Xin unable to raise his speed. He can only creep forward slowly. The speed of the car has dropped to 10 kilometers, which is comparable to the speed of a turtle.

"It's really hard to walk! Fortunately, this valley used to be a river. This is a ditch. Otherwise, there might be no road." Chen Xin shook his head and compared the terrain scanned by the drone with the map stacking. Looking at the original river course in the valley marked on the map~www.ltnovel.com~ can't help but sigh.

Just now I felt that I was not slow, but I immediately encountered a situation where I had to slow down. Chen Xin couldn't laugh or cry.

Fortunately, he had a good mentality. He didn't become irritable because of this situation. He had to pass through quickly, but he was able to accept the current speed.

The speed of driving in the wild is not fast. After all, this is not like driving on the highway before the disaster. The road is flat and straight, and there are no potholes and mud on the hardened road. As long as you don't speed, the accelerator can be stepped on to the end. Rush forward.

When there is no road in the wild, you must first plan a direction and route for yourself, and secondly, you must deal with the complex road conditions in various environments.

Problems such as stagnant water and mud are the best solutions. Now in this apocalyptic environment, these problems connect the road with a series of obstacles such as sand, trees, and rivers that have all become snowy roads. Relatively speaking, the road conditions It has become single, but it is not better.

If you have to make an analogy, driving in such an area completely covered by snow is actually the same as driving in the desert, except that the snow may be a little bit firmer than the desert, and the wheels or tracks are not. As for being so easy to fall into it.

The snow itself also has the potential to collapse, and even to the hollow under the snow.

This is why Chen Xin did not start the operating system to drive automatically, but instead held the steering wheel by himself.

After all, human judgment and reaction ability are stronger than this kind of rigid operating system.

But this also made Chen Xin a little upset. When he was in Three Towns before, he forgot to ask them for more resources and simply upgraded the operating system on the car to artificial intelligence.

In that case, you can relax a lot, right? Chen Xin couldn't help but walk away.
