Be the savior from Frostpunk

Chapter 151
Even in the 22nd century, there are even complete and stable nuclear reactors to provide energy for cities, electronic resources are widely used, and even in the last days, precious technological heritage has been left for the survivors on the wasteland.

But oil resources are still regarded as important materials in this world, liquid gold.

However, pure electric drive can't deal with the engines of large industrial machinery. Those violent beasts need the most primitive energy reaction from the oil-treated liquid, and deflagration is used as the starting method.

Ordinary electric drives may not reach that much power.

Not to mention that such simple and easy-to-use resources are more common in various conditions of use. People in the wasteland are starting to climb the technology tree again, and what they need is things that can be used immediately.

It doesn't look cool, but in fact it is so-called high technology that is blind when divorced from the modern civilized environment.

After determining the location of the oil depot, Li Jianghao was not too worried about the quality of the refined oil contained therein.

Thorne, who is rich in knowledge, told people that no matter what the grade of gasoline is completely sealed, there will be almost no loss, and it can be stored relatively permanently.

Diesel is not as good, and the combustion efficiency of diesel that has been left for too long will gradually fade, and secondary refining may be required.

Finding the location of the oil depot was just the beginning. After all, they couldn't transport all the resources out when the infected surrounded the shock tower.

Just relying on manpower to carry, the oil resources that these few people can take risks to carry at one time are just a drop in the bucket for the development of the future camp.

Li Jianghao's idea is to connect the pipeline of the oil depot to the tap water pipeline inside the city, and prepare a storage cabin in advance under the bridge outside the city, so that the infected people on the ground can be bypassed to get the oil resources inside.

The problems to be solved are that 100% of the sediments of flammable substances exist in tap water and underground channels, and explosion accidents may occur during the transfer process.And whether there are gaps in the most critical underground pipelines that they are not aware of, they still need to organize manpower to thoroughly inspect and plan the routes.

In the age of civilization, refined oil can only be sent to gas stations around the world by professional transport vehicles.

Li Jianghao had no other choice but to take the risk and do this.

Fortunately, the city's infrastructure is very complete, and underground sewage and garbage disposal are much more advanced than in the 21st century.

The pollution of oil quality during transportation can be solved by secondary refining, so that the waste oil with chemical structure destroyed due to sundries in various underground water channels will not flow out of the pipeline directly.

Arnold and the others don't have a clear understanding of oil resources, and Kagalo can't see this kind of chemical energy.

Only Li Jianghao has a cautious attitude towards oil in the education he has received since he was a child.After all, even though he read the extra-curricular books at the safety education conference held at school every year, he also knew that if there was an accident in the transportation and storage of oil, terrible disasters would happen.

That's why he thought so much, so that in the eyes of others, he seemed a little nervous and neurotic.

Thorne comforted Li Jianghao and said:

"To change the way of thinking, we guide all the oil here to the area under the shock tower, and then use some explosives to cause deflagration. If we can intervene in substances such as natural gas, and cooperate with the reactor energy connected to the shock tower itself, we have a chance to eliminate it all at once. 2000 million infected people."

Li Jianghao laughed, thinking how could there be such a comforting person.

He is not a bombshell, and apart from burning a large glass in New London, he has never done anything too risky. He just regarded Thorne's suggestion as a joke and did not think about the feasibility of doing so.

In his opinion, instead of spending so much effort and wasting precious oil resources, it would be better to blow up the reactor directly and bring a nuclear level to the surrounding area.

No matter ordinary people or infected people, everyone said goodbye.

According to Mars' calculations, that reactor is not just an ordinary nuclear bomb equivalent, and the explosion range can cover the entire Phoenix City.The nuclear explosion deposition cloud will cover the entire valley in the northern region and become a restricted area for life. At the same time, because the camp is located between two mountain ranges, there is no way to run.

People living between the two mountain ranges would experience the brutality of nuclear winter, unable to find living animals for food or cultivate crops to replace them.

Those infected who existed on the wasteland will not be wiped out, nor will they be unable to survive because they live in nuclear winter.

Then there will be another tragedy.

Sometimes Li Jianghao really thinks that this world should be destroyed quickly, and he is tired.

"You all have to die here!"

Li Jianghao raised his head suddenly, as if he heard a little girl's voice just now.

He looked around and asked, but no one heard him.

"Sorry, I caught a bug in the program on the way home from work. When I sent the tyrant here, a program I designed learned an artificial intelligence in that world. According to the regulations, I can't take any data polluted on the way to work, so here you are Hide it for a while. In exchange, I will give you a gadget, remember that your system is back, and tell him that you found this gadget yourself, or the boss gave it to you. In short, it has nothing to do with me!"

An audio message that sounded like a work message sounded in Li Jianghao's mind, and he could feel that the system in his mind did not exist.Whether it's his own or the so-called substitute.

How does it sound like, the system that temporarily came to replace the shift made a wrong program, and I hope I can help you figure it out.

The vision in his mind suddenly became chaotic, and an electronic picture tube screen at the end of the [-]th century appeared in front of his eyes. The red ripples twisted and converged into the image of a little girl.This girl doesn't look cute, but gives people a creepy feeling, repeating in a cold voice:

"You all have to die here!"

Li Jianghao remembered what this thing was, the Red Queen. It looked like the version of the Resident Evil movie, not the original setting of the game.

If my memory of the plot is correct, the Red Queen in the first film just wanted to prevent the virus from leaking inside the hive.By the fifth part, this little loli already wants to destroy the world.

And in a sense, she really destroyed the world!
"Wait, this is not a hive. The error log is being generated, warning, the T virus has been leaked, and the Resident Evil Level [-] alert. Repeat, the T virus has been released"

The Red Queen seemed to realize that she was no longer bound to the hive's laboratory, so she began to implement some special program, constantly playing warnings.

Unfortunately, the Umbrella company in this world is a music player company (according to Li Jianghao's understanding), and the world has long been occupied by infected people.

The remaining human beings are just hanging on for dear life. A mere virus leak is just a level three warning, and there is nothing to worry about.

"Alice, or Alicia?"

Li Jianghao started to make a sound. He vaguely remembered that in the final chapter of the movie, it was revealed that the prototype of the Red Queen was made with the protagonist Alice's body, Alicia, as a template.

Perhaps the Red Queen will respond to the name.
