My monster merges everything

Feeling Lu Changshan's gaze, Zhu Xiong still had a warm smile on his face and said very modestly: "We have a lot of ancient tree crystals. The more the better. Aren't yours not enough?"

Is this a problem of not enough?

Lu Changshan and Lone Lang's faces darkened. This was a matter of waste, a waste of natural resources.

Lamp tree crystals are more than just a resource to dispel fog and provide the light and energy needed for plant growth.

It is also a precious experimental resource. Some medicines, weapons and other things require lamp tree crystals as raw materials.

According to the big guys at the Tangcheng Research Center, for the subsequent development of psychic technology, lamp tree crystals, psychic mines, etc. will all be basic materials.

Therefore, even if the 117th Regiment and the Southwest Armed Forces Headquarters rely on a large population, they can support many lamp trees, allowing them to continue to grow and give birth to more lamp tree crystals.

But we would not use the lamp tree crystals to illuminate the entire city. That would be too wasteful.

"You, you just like it."

Lu Changshan held it in for a long time, and then replied quietly, Huiyuan City must not have been recovered recently, or Su Han's power must not be what that bastard Zhou Shanying investigated.

Despite the shock caused by the Ancient Tree Crystal, a large number of Blood Winged Tigers and Giant Vine Rats appeared in front of Lu Changshan and the others as they walked inside.

At this time, after Huiyuan City was recovered, the city was cleaning up supplies. The survivors were cleaning up useful things bit by bit under the organization of the logistics staff. Naturally, a large number of cars and giant vine rats were used.

It’s hard not to attract attention with these tall mounts that are almost as big as cars.

Lu Changshan originally thought that this was just an exclusive mount for the cavalry. Huiyuan City controlled a certain group of monsters to multiply and multiply as combat apostles.

However, when he saw an old man summoning a giant vine rat, it looked like a cattle cart, dragging a large carriage of goods slowly toward the distance. There were some humanoid apostles and contractors around him who were responsible for carrying it into the cart.

Weird, yet extremely peaceful.

Isn't it a bit too much to be able to contract even a sixty-year-old man?

"Commander Zhu, are there many such monsters here?"

Lone Wolf still couldn't help but ask. As a special operations captain, he had performed many field missions and knew the importance of mounts.

In the apocalypse, vehicle supplies and even strength are actually not as good as some monsters. If special operations team members can have such apostles who can both fight and ride, their ability to carry out field activities will be greatly improved.

The simplest example is that they went from the Southwest Armed Forces to Linshui County. Although the speed was fast enough, it still took several days. If there was any accident, then a week would not be too much.

"Which one are you talking about? A giant vine rat?"

Zhu Xiong grinned and said: "There are quite a lot of them. There are also quite a few Bloodwings, the ones that can fly. Our lord has raised their tribe. Captain Zhao is interested?"

His eyes were cunning, he smiled like a fat tiger, and he recorded this information in his mind.

‘There are no monster mounts in the Southwest Armed Forces or Linshui City, and the vehicles are also weak. ’

No matter how many vehicles there are, it is impossible to have an unlimited supply of military vehicles, which are their shortcomings in combat.

Zhu Xiong had a plan in his mind. As long as he was interested, he could get more things out and try to create a resource surplus.

For Shuyu, the least worrying thing is the trading clan.

Apart from being able to exchange resources, ethnic trade is essentially more of a kind of penetration.

All your apostles are ancient tree type monsters. Is there really going to be a conflict and a fight over their heads?

Zhu Xiong's smile made Lone Wolf instinctively feel that something was wrong, as if he was being targeted, but he had no choice but not to reply.

"It will be much more convenient if you have a mount during the operation. It is really not easy for Lord Su to raise so many giant vine rats."

It is not that the Southwest Armed Forces have never tried to raise some kind of monster group, but it is too difficult to form a certain scale.

This is not before the end of the world. The difficulty of building a huge and safe breeding area has increased countless times.

It is impossible for the armed forces to invest such huge manpower and material resources to do this. The scale can only be controlled within a certain range and can only meet the experimental needs.

If you want to dress up as a customized apostle, you can only say that you are thinking too much.

While they were talking, everyone had arrived at the center of Huiyuan, with the tallest Tianyi Building serving as a temporary office center.

Zhu Xiong glanced at the convoy and said: "If Commander Lu is at ease, just let the soldiers rest for a while, just in the hall. I will ask people from the Government Affairs Department to bring water and food. The four of you will follow me upstairs. how?"

"I'll just stay and take care of them."

Xiao Zishan, who was silent, spoke up again. Although it was a bit abrupt, it gave Lu Changshan a step forward.

"Okay, what do you think, Commander Zhu?"

"No problem, Zhao Yimin, please make arrangements."

After giving instructions to Zhao Yimin, Zhu Xiong took Lu Changshan upstairs. When they arrived at the conference room, tea had already been put away, as well as fruits and other things.

The Ministry of Government, which had received the news earlier, was well prepared. The melons and fruits were also grown by Shuyu itself, but this was a rare thing in the apocalypse.

After all, there are resources to grow crops, so how much more resources are allocated to growing fruits?

When Lu Changshan saw it, he couldn't help but sigh in his heart again. This Huiyuan City is richer and richer than Linshui City.

As soon as the three of them sat down, there was a knock on the door outside the conference room.

Zhu Xiong and Gan Xinglei looked at each other, then spoke to the door.

"Come in."

An air cavalry quickly came to Zhu Xiong and whispered in his ear: "Commander Zhu, Miss Bai sent word that the lord is suppressing the cracks in the different space. I can't come here today, so I want you to talk to Commander Lu first."

Zhu Xiong looked surprised, but nodded and let the air cavalry go down.

Lu Changshan and others were all at the third level of strength. Although the air cavalry was not loud, they still heard a thing or two.

"Captain Lu, our lord can't get through it at the moment, why don't we get straight to the point and have a chat first?"

"sure."

Although there was an accident, Lu Changshan didn't think that this cooperation could be solved in one day, so he nodded happily.

Zhu Xiong got the answer and went straight to the point: "To be honest, your visit caught us off guard and unprepared. Why don't you tell us what you think first, Captain Lu?"

When it comes to cooperation, one party must express its stance first, and then respond based on the situation.

Shuyu has a strong family background, but he has to see how many chips the other party has before he can spend them, right?

Lu Changshan was obviously prepared, so he said: "I mentioned something before outside the city. The primary purpose of coming here this time is to resolve the misunderstanding, and the second is to cooperate. This is also the intention of the Southwest Armed Forces Headquarters."

"Unite all forces that can be united."

Zhu Xiong agreed, and Lu Changshan nodded and said, "Yes."

His eyes became serious, and then he said: "In terms of cooperation, one is a fighting alliance, and non-aggression is the basic requirement. If there is a threat from a beast tide, both parties will rush to help and help each other as much as possible."

"There's no problem with that."

"Then in terms of information, regular exchanges of information about the explored wild areas are conducted, with the focus being on clearing up the cracks and herds of animals in different spaces that may exist in the wild."

Zhu Xiong narrowed his eyes: "Captain Lu, have you noticed anything?"

"have"

Lu Changshan had no intention of concealing this information.

"In the first month of the end of the world, we completed the recovery of Linshui City, and we have been consolidating it in the following months. Among the two tides, the thing that caused danger to me was actually the cracks in the different space. The cracks in the city can be discovered in time. But the cracks in different spaces in the wilderness are basically difficult to find, and Commander Zhu should also understand this."

Zhu Xiong nodded. There was a vast fog and a wilderness around him. Not to mention cities and villages, there was not even a road in many places.

In this kind of environment, there is really no way to search for cracks in different spaces.

Lu Changshan sighed and said: "It was also my fault that I didn't notice the special features of the monsters wandering outside the city. Only when the monsters in the alien space crack gathered more than 300,000 and launched an attack on Linshui City did I have any clues. It’s hindsight.”

Zhu Xiong frowned when he heard that. Three hundred thousand monsters were no less than a city. They attacked in groups, and the waves were like a tsunami.

Linshui City does not have tall city walls like Nanfang City and Huiyuan City.

"We used almost all the artillery, and even forty or fifty tanks were disabled. Finally, we blocked the monster outside Linshui City. The cost was heavy. If we could have discovered it early and blocked the entrance to the crack in the different space and cleaned it, we would have lost more casualties. It won’t be this big.”

Lu Changshan's eyes flashed with sadness. The loss of equipment was secondary. In a battle of this scale, the number of deaths would definitely not be small.

Zhu Xiong also became serious. Nanfang City had never encountered this situation before, but it did not mean that they were not vigilant.

The vines of the Nine Snake Mother Tree spread for a hundred kilometers, and the parasitic corpse willows scattered around were enough to serve as a warning, but the distance was still limited, not to mention that Huiyuan City did not have such a large-scale investigation.

Thoughts flashed in Gan Xinglei's eyes, and he suddenly asked: "Captain Lu, how did you deal with the crack in the alien space in the end?"

Lu Changshan was stunned for a moment. He didn’t expect anyone on the other side to have thought of this question, so he replied: “We encountered two different space cracks in the wild. The closest one was in a barren mountain 30 kilometers away, where the second wave of tide appeared. The far one is in a valley 50 kilometers away. The terrain is remote and there are only mountain roads. We are almost unaware of it. The 300,000 beast tide is the masterpiece of this alien space rift."

He glanced at Gan Xinglei and said: "For the one thirty kilometers away, we have set up an outpost and stationed a thousand people on rotation to clean up monsters and collect the corpses of psychic mines and monsters from different spaces. As for the one fifty kilometers away, we can only Organize regular cleanups.”

Zhu Xiong frowned: "Aren't you worried about accidents?"

Although he didn't know more than Bai Qilan and Su Han, he knew that there was a blood sea demon in the blood sea. If he couldn't monitor it in real time, he was afraid that sooner or later there would be an accident.

However, Lu Changshan's answer was helpless: "The fifty-kilometer valley is full of mountain roads, surrounded by mountains and wilderness. Monsters emerge in endlessly. Regular cleaning can also allow Tier 3 to lead the team. If they are stationed, it will not only be inconvenient to transport materials, but also impossible to establish." A strong outpost, but also having to deal with monsters in the mountains all the time, is too expensive."

Everyone knows that cracks in different spaces are treasures. The flesh and blood of monsters can be used to make injections. The sea of ​​blood can give birth to spiritual energy mines. Even the surrounding areas will be improved faster due to the overflow of spiritual energy.

But stationing at such a long distance is inherently impossible.

And looking at the bright side, if a different space rift requires an outpost, how many of you can spread out?

A thousand here, two thousand there, sooner or later the combatants will be dispersed.

Partially stationed and cleaned regularly, this was the best way Lu Changshan came up with.

And this is also something closely related to Huiyuan City. As the two cities are close to each other, the discovery of cracks in different spaces in the future will inevitably affect each other.

"Commander Zhu, information sharing is the basis for this matter of cracks in different spaces in the wild. I'm afraid we will have to clean them together in the future. How to divide the interests according to the amount of effort. Whether to occupy or not depends on the territory's endurance. However, you must inform the other party first to avoid conflicts. ,how?"

Taking one step at a time and looking at three steps, Lu Changshan's suggestion can be said to have taken into account all the possible crises and benefits.

Zhu Xiong and Gan Xinglei looked at each other, made eye contact, and did not object to the proposal. They nodded and said, "That's okay."

Lu Changshan breathed a sigh of relief. It was good that the situation was open, so he said: "The second point of cooperation is about transactions. I wonder what Commander Zhu has planned for the various factories in the industrial park?"

"What do you want to trade?"

"Arms, cars"

Lu Changshan got straight to the point and said: "Huiyuan City has a very good industrial foundation and has relatively complete industrial equipment. Even if it is not a professional military industry, it can be used as a weapons production line or automobile production line with a little modification. Our Armed Forces can provide technical support and complete the transformation and upgrade. At the same time, we will trade supplies and produce arms and cars with you to consolidate each other’s city defense capabilities.”

Lu Changshan's tone was full of confidence. Technology is one of the biggest sources of confidence for the Armed Forces, and this is an obvious win-win situation.

The weapons produced can not only be used by their armed forces.

However, Zhu Xiong's fat face trembled slightly, he glanced at the fruit plate, and said tactfully: "The good thing is that we may not be so short of food."

Lu Changshan's face twitched slightly, as if there was really no shortage of food, but fortunately he calmed down and said: "Food is only the basis, some medicines, supplies, etc. can be traded. Of course, the most important thing is the potion to enhance strength."

When Zhou Shanying heard this, he put the two boxes on the table.

Originally, this thing should have been waiting for Su Han to arrive. It would be more effective to give the gift in front of him, the lord.

But now that we have talked about this, you have to show your strength wherever you should.

Zhou Shanying opened the box and revealed the contents. There were potions on the left and right, with two tubes on one side and ten tubes on the other.

Lu Changshan introduced with a smile in his eyes: "Commander Zhu, the box on the left contains third-level strengthening potions and injections. Strengthening potions can enhance the strength of the human body, have a probability of developing talents, have almost no side effects, and can be used for third-level strength. Injections It is for use by apostles to guide mutation, enhance strength, and have a probability of promoting advancement. The one on the right is a beast transformation potion, which can be used by humans or apostles to temporarily transform into beasts and enhance them."

"Ahem"

Before Lu Changshan finished speaking, he saw Zhu Xiong's strange expression.

"Well, Captain Lu, it seems like a coincidence. We also have this thing. Our research institute has developed a new model. It has been developed to the third level and is a high-end model. How about we take a look at it?"

Zhou Shanying:?

Lone Wolf:? ?

Lu Changshan:? ? ?

The three of them were stunned, and couldn't help but look at each other, and couldn't help but ask: "You, you even have a research institute? Didn't you just regain Huiyuan City not long ago?"

Zhu Xiong felt happy and took the initiative to take the bait. He finally took the bait.

He cleared his throat and said, "Huiyuan City has just been recovered, but the southern city next door has been ours for a long time."
