Li Ye proceeded to set the invitation code “SH5215” and inford Zhou Xing.
A few minutes later.
【City Communication Channel: K1】
【mbers: 2/12】
【Engineer: Hello?】
【Tomorrow: I can see you.】
【Engineer: This is unbelievable, this is a Level 2 City Radio—it can accommodate up to 12 mbers!】
【Tomorrow: Our mbers will keep increasing in the future.】
After a brief chat with Zhou Xing, Li Ye closed the city radio.
After all, this thing consud a considerable amount of energy and couldn’t stay on all day.
Once his City Alliance mbers gradually increased, Li Ye planned to open it at fixed intervals.
“Brother Li, should we give the City Alliance a na?” Tang Fang reminded from the side.
Li Ye thought for a mont, then spoke.
“Let’s call it the Tomorrow Alliance!”
Accompanied by a few roaring sounds, the Tomorrow and the Engineer started up and drove into the depths of the Eternal Night Zone.
Li Ye imdiately convened Old Zhou, Ning Wen, Lin Wu, and others for a eting to discuss what they had seen in the Zombie Mobile City.
“This Eternal Night Zone is very strange. I suggest we leave this area as soon as possible and head to a new zone,” Old Zhou spoke with evident worry.
Ning Wen hesitated for a mont, then spoke up.
“I agree with Uncle Zhou.”
Li Ye looked at Lin Wu.
“What about you, Lin Wu?”
Lin Wu adjusted his glasses.
“I think we need to figure out what’s going on in the Eternal Night Zone.”
Li Ye nodded.
In fact, his thoughts aligned with Lin Wu’s.
“No matter what’s happening in the Eternal Night Zone, we must get to the bottom of it,” he said.
A new day arrived.
When Li Ye opened his eyes, it was still pitch-black outside.
He glanced at the ti and saw that it was 6:43 a.m.
Without bothering to get dressed, Li Ye opened the system to check.
The system’s cooldown had reset.
【Ti until next Intelligence Refresh: 5 days 16 hours 52 minutes 59 seconds】
【Number of Intelligence Entries: 6】
“A refresh interval of six days… looks like this batch of intelligence will be valuable.” Li Ye nodded.
After washing up and stepping out of the armor plating, he found the combat personnel already conducting routine patrols.
Seeing the Lord approaching, they all waved in greeting.
Li Ye returned the gesture briefly and then walked toward the warehouse.
There, he picked up a vegetable bun for breakfast.
The filling of the vegetable bun was made from recently harvested Erald Lettuce, and it tasted quite good.
The food and freshwater of the Tomorrow were distributed uniformly through the warehouse, and residents received them by paying Contribution Points.
Since there was no registered electronic system yet, Li Ye had recruited a staff mber to record transactions on paper.
As the Lord, he naturally didn’t need to accumulate Contribution Points, let alone pay.
With over five days remaining until the next Intelligence Refresh, the Tomorrow couldn’t just sit idle. It had to explore more zones and gather resources.
What surprised Li Ye was that the Engineer could still supply Level 1 Fuel.
This was mainly because it possessed a Level 1 item.
【Item Na: Goblin Fuel Processing Device】
【Item Grade: Level 1】
【Attached Function: Insert 5 units of Wood and 1 unit of Freshwater to process into 1 unit of Fuel (Level 1).】
“What a great thing!” Li Ye couldn’t help but marvel.
For the Tomorrow at its current stage, there were far too many areas in need of fuel.
Whether it was the Waveblade Speedboat on water, the Off-road Vehicle and Storm Infantry Vehicle on land, or the Goblin Helicopter in the sky, all of these vehicles required fuel supply.
The Tomorrow itself needed even more fuel.
After upgrading to a Level 2 Mobile City, the fuel required for its daily operations had drastically increased.
In fact, Level 1 Fuel could hardly et its demands anymore—only Level 2 Fuel would suffice.
All in all, Wood and Freshwater were fairly easy-to-obtain resources in the wild.
Li Ye thus provided the Engineer with 200 units of Freshwater and 1,000 units of Wood, instructing it to help craft 200 units of Level 1 Fuel.
Soon, the fuel flowed through the pipelines of the Engineer into the Tomorrow’s storage compartnt in a steady stream.
Li Ye touched his chin, deep in thought.
For now, the Level 1 Fuel was enough. So, it was ti to consider expanding the scale of their vehicles.
First, although the Off-road Vehicle currently on the Tomorrow was a Level 1 vehicle, it could be equipped with the Level 2 Heavy Machine Gun Bloodtear Ripper. Such a convoy would still be capable of putting up a fight against the Zombie Swarm.
It had to be said, a Level 2 Zombie Swarm posed an extrely high threat to a Mobile City. Without a convoy forming a front-line shield, the Zombie Swarm would rush the Mobile City and breach its armor plating.
If distance wasn’t quickly widened, and too many zombies got caught in the treads and wheels, the Mobile City would stall in the wild.
Second, the Tomorrow currently owned a Level 2 Flying Vehicle – the Black Hawk Helicopter.
Once built and equipped with Level 2 Heavy Machine Guns and Rocket Launchers, it would undoubtedly beco a powerful aerial firepower support unit.
In peaceti, the Black Hawk Helicopter could also carry goods and explore new areas.
Although the vision was great, one realistic problem lay before Li Ye.
He severely lacked Level 2 Iron Ore.
……
Zombie Swarms, Bonfire Outposts, Patrol Convoys, Watchtowers, Fortresses, Flesh Mobile Cities, Fortified Strongholds………
Over the next two days, the Tomorrow encountered multiple zombie bases and vehicles.
Li Ye beca increasingly certain that these zombies were the Level 2 Civilization of the Eternal Night Zone.
However, he still didn’t know the scale or base of this Zombie Civilization.
The zombies charged in aggressively, and battles erupted again and again.
At these tis, the Bloodtear Ripper proved extraordinarily effective. With just one sweep of its firepower, zombies charging the Tomorrow and the Engineer were torn apart like paper.
Even the heavily defended Tyrant couldn’t withstand its bullets.
Combined with the Tomorrow’s Molten Cannon, Frost Cannon, and the Storm Infantry Vehicle deployed outside, the Tomorrow relied on this powerful firepower to win multiple skirmishes.
Zhou Xing, the Lord of the Engineer, broke into a cold sweat as he witnessed all of this.
The danger level of the Eternal Night Zone far exceeded his imagination. If not for traveling with the Tomorrow, he didn’t know how many tis the Engineer would’ve perished.
Though the battles were perilous, Li Ye still had so concerns in his heart.
There were too many enemies in the wild—ambushes ca too frequently.
To stay safe, the Tomorrow needed to keep moving at all tis.
During these two days, the Tomorrow had consud a large amount of bullets and shells.
With the Energy Shield deployed for defense, the City Energy had also been significantly depleted.
Moreover, the Tomorrow’s wheels and treads had accumulated a lot of zombie remains.
The armor deck had sustained damage from the Zombie Swarm’s intrusion and urgently needed to find a Safe Harbor for repairs.
A few minutes later, the Tomorrow and the Engineer unexpectedly ca across a strange Mobile City.
After picking up the binoculars and taking a glance, Li Ye gently shook his head.
“No saving it.”
