My Post-Apocalyptic Shelter Levels Up Infinitely!

It's close to noon.

Sporadic teams of envoys began to appear in Qinggang City, heading to the new city to attend meetings.

It's a bit funny to say that the South Suburban Alliance had already fallen apart under Edmund's plan, and the managers within the alliance had also split into three factions, each of which wanted to kill the other immediately.

But after Hades appeared, these people seemed to have lost their memory again, and it only took less than a day to "unite" together again.

This includes not only the Harbor Sanctuary, but even the first rebellious Digonghua Sanctuary shamelessly returned to the Alliance.

"Sometimes I really envy these old guys. They have been able to maintain such thick skin since they were born. Before, they wanted to clench a knife tightly and stab each other's heart. But now they can still talk and laugh as if they have nothing to do. occur."

Walking among the alliance missions in the western suburbs, Liehu saw a few "old friends" and immediately looked disdainful.

He could see the serious malice beneath those guys' false smiles at a glance.

But these people don't know it.

Do you really not know?

Liehu turned his head subconsciously and scanned the allies around him.

Well, this feels noticeably better.

Except for the old guy Aldrich who looked like a tiger with a smile on his face, the rest of Sumo and Kevin looked extremely sincere.

At least these two people were standing behind him, and he didn't have to worry about the knife coming at any time.

But what gave Yehu a bit of a headache.

At this time, walking surrounded by soldiers, Kevin was still humbly asking for advice on the future development direction of Huocun.

He even called Somo "teacher".

According to this attitude, if one were to vote on who would be the leader of the Western Suburbs Alliance, Kevin would definitely vote for Sumo without hesitation.

Yehu was a little tangled in his heart.

On the one hand, his self-esteem requires that he cannot lower his stature and let a person much younger than himself become the leader of the alliance.

On the other hand, the recognition prompted him to put aside his self-esteem and work hard to understand the general trend of development after the world changed.

never mind.

forget about it.

Anyway, I don’t want to be the leader of the alliance. Whoever wants to be can do it.

It would be great if Sumo was hoodwinked, and it would be more legitimate to apply for material transactions with Tianyuan Territory in the future.

Liehu tilted his head and pondered for a while, then simply shook all his thoughts out of his head and joined the conversation behind him with a smile.

Watching this scene, Aldrich shook his head repeatedly with mixed feelings in his heart.

It was really incredible to say that he originally thought that even if someone could overwhelm Yehu, it would be through unrivaled force.

But the reality is that this Somo boy took down the hunting tiger effortlessly with only some supplies.

Of course, what he would not have thought of is that what tiger hunting requires is never supplies, but respect that seems very inconspicuous.

But anyway, times have indeed changed.

Aldrich was also troubled, considering the issue of sides in the giant city shelter.

Being on the wall for a long time cannot solve the disadvantage, but it has become more obvious as the world changes.

Should they continue to waver between several major forces, or should they join the alliance for common development?

Thinking about the advice Chapman gave him before leaving, Aldrich shook his head slightly and looked straight ahead.

By noon, the heavy rain finally subsided and turned into a light drizzle.

In the misty fog, a towering lightning wall has appeared at the end of the field of vision.

I don't know if it was Hades's special arrangement, but the bodies of the dwarves and lizards were still not collected.

In front of the wall, there were several large pits.

Curious managers have gathered near the big pit to check it out, matching it with the close-up pictures sent earlier.

Many people could not help but marvel.

"Oh my God, could such a big lizard grow up in nuclear wastewater?"

"I believe you when you say it grew up eating fuel rods!"

"Such a small dwarf looks like a miniature version of us humans."

"I don't know. We know too little about this strange world, and there is no place to go to find out the news. I really miss the Foundation's fleet."

"What does Hades want to do? Does he want to unite with our Sunny Harbor Sanctuary to fight these monsters?"

"Come on, I don't want to fight a lizard that's dozens of meters away. I might as well take the people and run away."

"Keep your voice down. Those people from the Western Suburbs Alliance are here. Let's see their reaction."

""

What you see in photos is never as shocking as seeing it in person.

Especially the heavy tank giant lizard enlarged by the catalyst. Because there is no comparison object in the photo, it is not very scary.

But in reality, the body was as huge as a large passenger plane.

The dug hole alone was as big as a football field, which really scared many people to the point of trembling with fear.

At this time, the Western Suburbs Alliance arrived.

The voices of the managers gathered around the corpse pit became much quieter, and everyone's positions immediately separated.

Still standing together in the southern suburbs, on the far left.

Those in the eastern suburbs are scattered in the middle, forming a buffer zone.

Looking at Yehu who was talking and laughing, everyone widened their eyes, wanting to see Yehu be frightened when he saw the monster in the corpse pit.

However, they were disappointed.

Walking by, the smile on Yehu's face not only did not diminish, but became even stronger.

Including Kevin, who is the latest to join the Western Suburbs League, his face is just surprise, not much fear that everyone wants to see.

The remaining Somo was still as calm as ever, like a person with no emotions at all.

As for Aldrich, the old guy didn't know what he was thinking. He still lowered his head and walked in deep thought.

“Hey, the gophers over there are staring at us, probably waiting for us to make a fool of ourselves.

Liehu glanced at it and curled his lips disdainfully.

"If these guys saw the scene last night, they would probably be scared to death."

"You can't say that. They really did it hard this time. It's only human nature to want to see us make a fool of ourselves."

As a manager from the South Suburban League, Kevin seemed to be neutral in trying to smooth things over, but in fact his tone was full of contempt.

It was his first time attending such a large rally without siding with the South Suburban Alliance.

It feels pretty good, at least I no longer have to endure the deadly breath of those old guys.

"Don't tell me, Hades is probably watching us, waiting for us to make a fool of ourselves." Hunter Tiger glanced at the giant wall in the distance, and suddenly laughed loudly without knowing what he thought of.

Laughter diluted the dull atmosphere.

The angry and frowning managers of the southern suburbs turned their heads away.

"In the past, these old guys bullied me and excluded me. They didn't want Pingtan Sanctuary to enter the trade circle of Qinggang City. It's better now. I won't have to endure this humiliation anymore!"

I still remember the scene when I came to Qinggang Conference last time and was repeatedly excluded but unable to do anything.

Now, Yehu has a feeling of being suppressed by his IQ.

As for his current feeling of elation, Sumo could completely understand.

It's roughly like being a newcomer who is squeezed out in the workplace. Not only is he isolated from all kinds of activities, but he is also squeezed out everywhere.

Now I have finally become an old man, and I still have a few friends who can advance and retreat together.

Perhaps it is not yet to the point where we can fight against each other.

But compared with the previous feeling of frustration, this change was enough to make Yehu laugh out loud while sleeping.

Without delaying to observe in front of the corpse pit, the Alliance team continued to move forward.

Approaching the bottom of the giant wall, it wasn't until he found a bunch of small white flowers growing in the corner that a smile appeared on Somo's face.

"What's wrong?"

Kevin turned his head, a little surprised.

"You'll find out later."

Sumo gave up on this well-behaved disciple.

The group of people passed through the broken city gate and soon entered Qinggang New City, which had been under construction for a long time.

Different from the advanced industrial area that I saw at first sight when I came in last time, the current new town is obviously more like a modern city.

Neat floor tiles are laid at the entrance to the city, and there are rows of standard houses on both sides.

It's a pity that the inflow of people far exceeds the limit of the land's population absorption, and the original planning of the new city also determines that they cannot generate too many jobs, so they can only absorb it through a large amount of infrastructure.

This approach directly resulted in the fact that most of the houses built on both sides of the street were residential buildings and could not be used rationally to form shops to stimulate consumption.

Even a layman like Xie Hu could see its disadvantages at a glance.

But if it were in the past, Yehu might have ridiculed him directly.

Now, when he spoke, he glanced at Somo involuntarily and was not in a hurry to express his opinion.

"Well, teacher, what they are doing seems a bit inconsistent with economic development, right?"

"That's not necessarily the case."

Sumo chuckled and shook his head.

The method of material production determines the industrial construction model.

Every change in productivity will continuously improve the status of workers at the bottom.

"As long as the starch and protein production machines in Qinggang Shelter are not broken, they are fully capable of keeping hundreds of thousands of people alive."

"But if they give these people a decent job and give them spending power."

"For example, what if they want to purchase some items that Sunny Harbor Sanctuary only has in stock and cannot continue to manufacture?"

"In other words, if we provide a large number of entertainment activities, how can we make up for the materials lost during those activities?"

Sumo didn't explain it too thoroughly, but everyone present was not a fool.

Even the hunting tiger understood it.

Although Qinggang New City has received a large number of homeless people, they do not want to pay extra for this.

Providing these people's daily survival needs is already the limit, and if it continues to be wasted, it will be a losing business.

Unless these people show more value, or the city opens up a new trade route.

Only when the work of these people can generate external benefits can they receive internal status and reasonable treatment.

In fact, this is the current situation in the new city.

The reception of homeless people is not closed here. As long as they are willing to come, relief meals will be distributed.

Relief meals last fourteen days.

If you still want to eat on the fifteenth day, you can only go and participate in the construction tasks arranged by the new city.

But these constructions cannot bring development to the new city.

It's like building a hundred or five hundred residential houses, just to give homeless people a place to live.

Supplies are still being consumed continuously, with no external replenishment.

Therefore, what is distributed to the homeless is only a simple relief meal.

If they want to exchange for new clothes, they can only exchange them with the meals they receive.

This is obviously not good news for the homeless people who dream of being treated as normal as the gopher residents.

"So the previous war was not forced by them, but the wanderers took the initiative?"

Hunter Tiger said thoughtfully.

"That's right. The plunder caused by the war can generate external benefits, so the wanderers can get additional material rewards, and it will not consume the original storage of Clear Harbor Shelter."

Sumo nodded, somewhat satisfied that Yehu's brain was finally put to good use.

"So I guess Hades must have discovered this, and he asked us to come to the gathering today."

"You just want to solve a problem that has no external benefits?"

Kevin quickly answered.

"Correct, he must have seen how our Western Suburban League operates."

Speaking of which, the internal operation of Western Suburbs is not very healthy.

It's just because Hunter Tiger, Aldrich, and Kevin are willing to consume the shelter's previous storage.

All three shelters have been undergoing extensive infrastructure construction recently and are in high demand.

Once they can't afford the cost of infrastructure, or the infrastructure has been completed, they lose demand.

The trade framework that was finally built will soon face huge operational problems.

For this, the only solution can only be open source.

Either generate a trade surplus and plunder cheap materials or labor from further places to satisfy the cycle.

Either get game or system rewards, and a mine or resource point appears directly from the void.

Or simply.

If you have no money, you can directly join forces to start a war. As long as you can capture a gopher man's refuge, the materials inside will be able to maintain the operation of the alliance for a long time, and continue to build more infrastructure to attract labor to join the enlargement "plate".

besides.

Sumo didn't have any better ideas yet.

Could Hades have a better idea?

"Let's go, it's time for us to attend this meeting. I really want to see what this over 100-year-old manager can do."

Lewis, who was in charge of the reception last time, is still standing in a conspicuous place.

The difference is that the blond minister is no longer as arrogant as last time and has become much humbler.

Seeing the Western Suburbs Alliance coming together, he quickly stepped forward and said respectfully:

"Master managers, Master Hades is already waiting in the conference room."

"Humph." Liehu exhaled through his nose and glared at the humble blond: "We came all the way here to attend the meeting, not to mention eating, and we don't even have any saliva?"

Compared to the first time I went to Tianyuan Refuge, the generous treatment.

Liehu glanced at Lewis, who was at a loss at this time, with some disdain, snorted again and walked forward.

"Forgive me, that's just his character. Please send someone to lead us."

Kevin walked behind and apologized, but his smiling expression seemed more arrogant.

"It's okay, sirs, please come this way!"

He quickly assigned a few guards to lead the way, and Lewis did not dare to express any displeasure until everyone disappeared.

There is no way, since Hades woke up and dealt with a large number of managers, now everyone in Clear Harbor Shelter is in danger.

No one knows whether he will be the next unlucky person to be dealt with, so he can only put away his past arrogance.

Even if he is being ridiculed by the Western Suburbs Alliance, he can only endure this tone.

"Damn it Edmund, for making this mess and making me suffer too."

Looking at the wall bitterly, he realized that another manager had arrived in the distance. Lewis could only take a deep breath and pretend to have a professional smile.

But deep down in his heart he could guarantee it.

Now, definitely in the decades since Clear Harbor Sanctuary established its status.

It’s the most frustrating time!
