Be the savior from Frostpunk

Chapter 86 Dreadnoughts and Chemicals
There was one day until Tesla City was engulfed in a blizzard, and five days before the blizzard reached New London.

In the past few days, the temperature outside the glass dome has rarely returned to around minus [-] degrees, but Li Jianghao understands that this is just the calm before the storm.Starting tomorrow, even the sun will be eclipsed.

The city will face the final challenge, but along the way, he has taken care of the citizens' food and clothing well, and has not triggered many plots that force him to make choices.

Only now did Li Jianghao understand why this world assigned him a novice mission.Because once the resource supply is completed, it is easy to complete the new home script without being affected by supernatural forces.

I hope that I can complete the task smoothly like this, and then get out of here quickly, and those big bosses who are focusing on this place also hurry back to their respective homes.

Li Jianghao got up from the control room. The Huoyan Sword Liehuo had been stuck on the platform connected to the embers for the past few days. Every time he pulled out the holy sword, the aura of the embers seemed to rush into his body in the circle of darkness.

However, the human beings in this world do not have dark souls in their bodies. The ring of darkness just imprisoned a loneliness.

However, after the embers are ignited, in addition to the ability to increase blood, it can also connect the world where it is located with other worlds, attracting those malicious spirits to invade.

But the remaining fire of his own has already burned into the iron lump of the energy tower. If there is a spirit body that can break through the restrictions of the second-level distortion and come here, I don't know if this spirit body will be a human or a Transformer.

The lighthouse put up a huge blizzard countdown sign. Although the city was as peaceful as spring, some fearful people still carried their cold-proof clothes with them at all times and walked on the streets.

The first dreadnought, equipped with a giant turret, sailed out of the factory and began cruising from the orbital station.

The French people living in the steeples on the wall knew that the blizzard was coming very early. They had been planning for several days and were preparing to talk to the mayor about whether they could live in the city under the wall.

As soon as Benedy prepared his words, the French watched the dreadnought battleship equipped with huge cannons act as a labor force, and with the assistance of robots, they pulled away their digging machines.

What the huge gun barrel fired was not a projectile at all, and it looked much more powerful.

In fact, what this dreadnought battleship fired was a precharged steam hub. A total of five steam hubs were installed in the rear cabin. The front end of the pipe that originally flowed steam was filled with gunpowder.

After the steam continues to gain enough power, the entire steam hub will be launched directly, and the temperature of the pre-charged pipeline is sufficient to ensure that the internal combustion process will not be affected during the flight.

After hitting the target, the power furnace at the front will directly collapse and hit the gunpowder in the front pipe, causing a violent explosion.

It was only tested once after leaving the factory, and it exploded the entire cave of darkness.

After that, the factory was brought back, and after all five steam hubs were installed, they were officially included in New London's defense system.

The appearance of the dreadnought battleship made the French people hesitate again. After thinking about it, they still chose to stay in the minaret area where they were.Anyway, the living temperature here is also very suitable, but I feel a little guilty when facing a snowstorm.

However, Benedy is still planning to move himself to the city first, at least to make his living place near the mayor.As the temporary spokesperson of the French in New London, he is still qualified enough to go to the city and ask to see the mayor.

He also had some personal items that he could provide to Li Jianghao for research. From the engineering apprentice who maintained the equipment outside the wall, he learned that Li Jianghao paid special attention to technological exploration in the city, so Benedy believed that the things in his hands would definitely be useful for him. Get a suitable position.

After getting permission from the guard station, the outpost city equipment that had been transformed into an elevator brought Benedy into the city.

Most citizens can take the elevator to visit one of the four minarets after obtaining permission every afternoon.As for the large elevators used to transport resources inside and outside the city, they have been fixed inside the city walls, and there are special passages to avoid accidental leakage or safety accidents during transportation.

After going through a bumpy ride, Benedy went to the control room of the energy tower under the escort of three guards.

Once entering the city's surface, the surrounding huge metal walls bring a terrible sense of oppression, but when one thinks of living in the spiers outside the city, when one opens one's eyes, there is a snow-white dead land outside, surrounded by such a powerful wall, it is obvious safer.Even if it's just psychological.

Benedy was thinking wildly, and before they had time to observe the situation in the city, they had already reached the energy tower.

Benedy felt a little hot, so he took off his winter clothes, only to notice that almost all the people he met along the way were dressed in regular clothes, and the only thing that would greet him was the breeze. The cold wind is blowing stiffly.

Although the temperature inside the spire is suitable, the door is always open, allowing the servitors and large machinery to pass through.

This made the cold wind blow in unreservedly, which still made people feel a little uncomfortable, so they could only hide in the house.

This made him firm up his determination to live in the city.

After entering the control room, the mayor was drawing the map crookedly, but the north-south direction seemed to be reversed, and Tesla City in the east was on the right side of the map instead.The Winter House is clearly in the north, but it is drawn below.

"The lighthouse can no longer observe the situation in Tesla City. Tomorrow will be the last time we see the sun before the snowstorm. All the minarets outside the city will close their access to the outside. At that time, the temperature inside the minaret will be no different from the temperature in the city. .”

Li Jianghao could guess the little thoughts in this guy's heart, and preconceived and cut off Benedict's idea of ​​wanting to live in the city.

Before the snowstorm, it would be better for them to live in the steeple, so that no accidents could happen in the last few days.Especially when most of the ordinary residents of the empire and the French are somewhat uncomfortable with each other.

Benedict smiled awkwardly, and said: "Follow your orders, you have saved us, how dare we have extravagant demands for the living environment? I just want to express my gratitude to you on behalf of the only remaining French people." , and by the way, the chemical we keep that affects climate change and causes blizzard anomalies."

Benedy took out a thick wooden box from his arms, and after opening it, the glass tube wrapped in soft cloth was sealed.

Red mist-like and liquid-like chemicals flowed in it.

Li Jianghao is very interested in this stuff. Among the causes of drastic climate change, the most insignificant one is:
From material adhesives that greatly speed up the efficiency of mechanical mining to extraction processes of key metal components for various large-scale mechanical twisting, this red industrial product plays an extremely important role.

And the only cost is that the proportion of carbon dioxide in industrial exhaust gas has increased by 40.00%.

The civilization of the ice steam age developed large-scale differential engines and robots, and was obsessed with the industrial development line of large factories, but it has not yet gone out of the rational use of electricity. This is also the reason for this kind of chemical industrial products.

After all, when the price is low enough and the effect is efficient enough, capital will not actively seek changes.
