Doomsday has a chariot

Soon after, Liu Chen received news that the person in charge of the high-tech research institute at Gathering No. 1 wanted to see him and asked him if he could take the time to go there.

Liu Chen naturally agreed and then prepared to leave.

At present, the most valuable thing at Gathering Area No. 1, besides the heavy weapons and equipment, is the high-tech research institute.

And judging from future development trends, the latter will be many times more useful than the former.

After all, heavy weapons can only act as a deterrent at best, and no one would dare to use them easily under normal circumstances.

In the later stages of the apocalypse, when overlord-level warriors began to appear, heavy weapons could no longer harm their opponents, and they became even less useful.

On the contrary, it is a high-tech research institute. Once it can develop evolution potions and evolution fluids, it will be of great benefit to the development of a gathering place.

The reason why Liu Chen wanted to control Gathering Place No. 1 was actually for the high-tech research institute.

After talking to his parents, Liu Chen left the big black dog behind this time, started his chariot, and headed straight for gathering place No. 1.

With two E-class creatures, Chen Yu and Big Black Dog, as well as four tanks and other heavy weapons, Liu Chen basically no longer has to worry about the safety of his parents and can finally use tanks.

The tank not only has powerful defense and terrifying attacks, but its driving speed is also top-notch.

Using a chariot to travel, Liu Chen set off from gathering place No. 2 and arrived at gathering place No. 1 in only about half an hour.

Although we encountered groups of evil ghosts on the road, the chariots could crush them without stopping.

The small amount of force generated by the collision of ordinary F-class evil ghosts will basically not consume any energy from the tank.

Parking the chariot at the entrance of the High-tech Research Institute, Zhao Wuliang was already waiting there. After saying hello, he led Liu Chen in.

What Liu Chen didn't expect was that the main building of the high-tech research institute at Gathering No. 1 was not on the ground, but underground.

No wonder there is only a three-story building on the ground. Liu Chen had been wondering before, how could a high-tech research institute of this size possibly produce anything.

It's not that the larger the area, the stronger the strength of a high-tech research institute, but if there is not enough space, even those high-tech equipment cannot be placed, and scientists cannot be left to use computers to make constant calculations.

The power supply in Gathering No. 1 is basically used by the high-tech research institute, so not only is there an elevator, the lights are bright, and various instruments and equipment are running, giving Liu Chen the illusion that this place has not been affected by the apocalypse at all. Impact.

There are three floors underground, and each floor is guarded by no less than twenty fully armed soldiers with guns. What surprised Liu Chen was that he had never seen these soldiers before. They obviously belonged to a high-tech research institute. of armed forces.

Of course, the High-tech Research Institute itself definitely does not have the ability to produce such weapons. Wei Renxiong should have deployed them here before.

In order to make it easier for the people in Gathering Area No. 1 to identify with him, Liu Chen had put on a military uniform. The rank of major could clearly show his identity.

Although these soldiers of the High-tech Research Institute have food and accommodation in the research institute and rarely go to the gathering place, they also know that Wei Renxiong has personally accepted the fate of a Major Liu, and after Colonel Wei was trapped in a military base in a neighboring province, the entire The temporary person in charge of the Jincheng military gathering place is also Major Liu.

Therefore, after recognizing Liu Chen's identity, these soldiers all solemnly performed military salutes, because nominally, they were subordinate to Liu Chen from now on.

After going all the way down to the third floor, someone finally came to greet Liu Chen. He was a man in his thirties wearing glasses and a white coat.

"Major Liu, my name is Feng Tao, and I am now the deputy director of the research institute. I'm sorry, I was a little busy just now, so I couldn't pick you up from above. Please don't blame me." The man said with an apologetic smile.

Liu Chen shook his head and said, "It's okay. Where is Director Zhang Tong?"

"Director Zhang is inside, please come with me."

Seeing that Liu Chen's expression was always calm, Feng Tao was not sure whether the other party was blaming them, and he did not dare to say more, so he could only lead the way with some anxiety.

Although the High-tech Research Institute is nominally independent of the gathering place, it is now clear to everyone that the High-tech Research Institute is already part of the gathering place.

Without the protection and support of a gathering place, scientists are not immortals who can live without eating or drinking. They simply cannot survive in this apocalypse.

Therefore, in Wei Renxiong's absence, Liu Chen is the direct leader of the High-tech Research Institute. They did not go to greet him from above, and the director of the research institute has not shown up yet. This is indeed a bit of a neglect.

It's just that Feng Tao is also suffering in his heart and can't express it. He knows Director Zhang Tong's weird temper better than anyone else.

It is no exaggeration to say that he is a true scientific madman who does not pay attention to other things except research.

Not to mention Liu Chen coming, even if Wei Renxiong came, Director Zhang would still know what to do, and to greet this kind of thing personally, there was no need to even think about it.

It's just that Wei Renxiong and Zhang Tong have been friends for many years and don't care about these things at all. Feng Tao is not sure whether the new Major Liu will mind.

Soon, they arrived in front of a metal room. Feng Tao stepped forward and rang the doorbell. A somewhat impatient voice came from inside: "Feng Tao? Didn't I tell you not to disturb me if you have nothing to do?"

Feng Tao smiled bitterly to himself, glanced at Liu Chen quietly, and found that the other party did not look displeased. Then he breathed a sigh of relief and said quickly: "Director Zhang, Major Liu is here."

"Oh, then come in..."

With a soft click, the door opened automatically, and Feng Tao led Liu Chen and Zhao Wuliang in.

Director Zhang Tong still didn't come out to greet him, which made Feng Tao even more helpless, so he continued walking inside with Liu Chen alone.

This room doesn't look big from the outside, but in fact the space inside is extremely spacious. After passing the corridor, there is a hall with hundreds of square meters, and there are a bunch of rooms of different sizes next to it.

After walking to one of the larger rooms, Liu Chen finally saw Zhang Tong, the eccentric director of the high-tech research institute.

Zhang Tong is a middle-aged man with a rather tall stature and an ordinary appearance. He even looks a bit old-fashioned and serious, perhaps because he has always been expressionless.

"Major Liu, right? Just wait for a while until I finish this experiment."

Zhang Tong glanced at Liu Chen and nodded as a greeting.

When Feng Tao heard this, he was immediately startled. He quickly glanced at Liu Chen quietly and found that the latter still did not show any displeasure. He just nodded and said: "It's okay, Director Zhang, please do your work first. I'll just look at it." Look, there’s no need to rush.”
