Chapter 680 New Electromagnetic Gun

It was still raining non-stop. With the windows closed and the thick curtains drawn, the sound of thunder and rain faintly came in, and the crackling of the glass continued.

"Are you asleep?" Guo Fei suddenly remembered what happened during the day, and asked in a low voice.

"Um!?"

Miya hugged his arms and pressed them under his head, squeezed into his arms, found a comfortable position to lie down, and asked with squinted eyes.

The pressed hands gently circled Miya's hair, Guo Fei said, "I forgot to ask, can the city provide vegetables now? Are they all dry food?"

Their meals are different from those of the people below. After regaining New York, Aunt Camilla found a Michelin three-star chef to cook for them, and the ingredients provided were completely different. There was no preferential treatment for going out to the warehouse for a few days. Fei ate the same as everyone else, and there was no vegetable in the dry food, which made him a little worried.

"What's the matter? Want to eat fresh vegetables?" Miya said, "I'm afraid it's difficult now, but didn't you just eat mushrooms a while ago?"

On the way back from the military camp, they ate mushrooms for two days in a row. Although there are not any fresh ones, there are also canned vegetables, and they are all high-end products. People outside can’t eat them if they want to eat them. Miya looked at them curiously. Looking at Guo Fei, "Don't you like meat and vegetables?"

"It's not about me." Guo Fei told Laura's behavior today, "She usually eats canned food and still behaves like this. I'm afraid the people below are even more lacking in vitamins and plant fibers."

Miya drew circles on his chest, thought for a while and said, "Even if half of the land is allocated according to what you said, it may not be enough. More than 2 people really want to eat them. Tens of thousands of catties of vegetables are needed every day." , I think we can only go to the wild."

"You mean wild vegetables?" Guo Fei asked.

"I was negligent during this time." Mia said, "They may have just lived a stable life, and no one mentioned that they haven't eaten fresh vegetables for a long time. To solve this problem, planting alone is the best way to solve this problem If you can’t get it, you have to go to the wild to find it.”

Guo Fei was a little hesitant, "This rain has a wide range. I look at the satellite cloud images, at least including [-] to [-] kilometers around. If we want to get low radiation value, we need to go farther to pick. Do you know if there are so many wild vegetables?"

Miya said, "Far far away, there are not many monsters around, let Larry's unmanned aircraft work harder, and keep a good guard around it. We will send more people out, it's not a big problem , As for wild vegetables, hehe, Brother Fei, I often go to pick wild vegetables for fun, I guess you can’t compare to me in this regard, those things are everywhere, but the taste is not very good, the quantity is definitely enough.”

Guo Fei didn't make a sound. Although he was born in the countryside, he usually couldn't finish his own vegetables. Although he knew some wild vegetables, he rarely paid attention to them.

There was the sound of rain crackling outside the window, Miya arched her body, curled up comfortably in Guo Fei's arms, "Go to sleep, I will arrange for people to pick wild vegetables when the rain stops, um, I am exhausted."

After a while, the sound of even breathing came from beside him. Guo Fei turned his head apologetically, kissed her on the forehead, and squeezed her tightly with his pressing arm.

Became a hands-off shopkeeper, and took the two little guys around in the building every day, which exhausted Miya. Every day when I got home, I went to rest early, and I didn’t have much energy. According to Miya Well, now is the time to frame, and when everything goes well, she will have fewer things to do, and she will relax later.

……

The work of the energy block was declared interrupted.

Due to the lack of core materials, although there has been a qualitative breakthrough in technology, charging faster and higher energy storage, but due to the heavy rain that trapped them, and the materials needed are too scarce and expensive, they had to be replaced. This development was stopped.

According to Guo Fei's idea, it is estimated that there are only a few in the basement of the White House. The cost is too high, and there is no way to popularize it. Even if they only need to exterminate zombies, they can get supplies without paying, but Well, this kind of rare material is not found everywhere. According to the engineer, it is estimated that the entire American continent has been searched, but a few energy blocks cannot be produced.

Here I have to talk about the benefits of the end of the world. There is no system, and there is no intellectual property rights. They have searched all the computer hard drives in nearby universities, as well as various companies in the city. The data stored in them , are all packaged and summarized to provide a supporting basis for their research and development.

The focus of research and development shifted to the battery pack, and a spare battery was carefully uncovered. Although anti-copying measures were designed during production, the Tao is one foot tall and the devil is ten feet high. It is always easier to steal than to protect. It didn't take long. The inner core is revealed on the outside.

After careful analysis and research, the new battery pack was successfully released, the charging module was removed, and the solar panel was also canceled. The updated process and materials made the volume of the battery pack greatly reduced, but the energy remained at the original level.

Over there, the work in the weapons research and development room was also carried out in tandem. A new electromagnetic gun was built, the gun body was lighter, and the steel ball was changed to a warhead. With the rifling inside, the ballistic trajectory was more stable. At the same time, the pipeline connected to the backpack was also removed. It was canceled and changed to a magazine-style design. With the reduced battery pack, the electromagnetic gun has been separated from the backpack, and there are no longer too many entanglements.

Also due to the material problem, although the barrel is manufactured, it cannot withstand high-intensity bursts. After careful research, the electromagnetic gun has been changed to two modes. One is low-energy shooting, which can only reach the power of the current electromagnetic gun. Half of the guns, one is high-energy shooting, but it cannot be fired continuously, and there must be a three-second pause after each shot to ensure that the barrel can withstand pressure.

Several staff put out various monsters on the shooting range, some were agility corpse kings, some were strength-type, and some were the latest hard-shelled monsters.

These corpse kings had their limbs cut off, and even their jaws were cut off, leaving only a pair of eyes, looking fiercely at the humans walking around, screaming non-stop in their throats.

"Let me try it." Guo Fei excitedly took the new electromagnetic gun.

With a finger snap, the bullet whirled away soundlessly at high speed, plopped into the monster's head, and instantly those blood-red eyes dimmed.

The monsters next to them didn't seem to know that their companions were killed, they kept screaming, and there was a lot of noise in the shooting range.

Puff puff.

Guo Fei kept pulling the trigger, and one monster after another was shot, some headshot directly, and some tested the hardest parts of the body, especially those hard-shelled monsters, the bullets hit them, and they just pried them apart. Unless it hits the same position continuously to smash the outer hard shell, but after changing to the high-energy mode, it has the same power as the previous electromagnetic gun, and with the high-speed rotating bullet, it can be shot without shooting the eye socket. Give it a blow.

"It's powerful." Guo Fei said in admiration.

A man next to him said with a smile, "If it's still a steel ball, there's no way to smash this guy's head. We changed it to a pointed bullet, and added rifling to the barrel. In comparison, the energy consumption is less than half, but The power is not much different, it is not a problem at all to blow up a monster, but it is impossible to kill several with one shot like before."

Guo Fei asked suspiciously, "Rifling? Don't people in the dark night know how to add rifling?"

"Of course they know." The man took a gun barrel, lifted it up and looked inside, and handed it to Guo Fei, "According to their materials, we can't add rifling, and the materials are too complicated and the production cost is too high." Higher, we changed the material, lowered the energy, and this is barely achieved.”

Guo Fei asked, "Don't they understand this?"

"Understood, what's the use?" The man said proudly, "I think these electromagnetic guns are relatively rough in production, and they should be products produced in a hurry. Moreover, their design, development and craftsmanship are far behind ours. It’s useless, I guess, at the beginning, the power would definitely not be so powerful, and I thought about using warheads, but they couldn’t solve these problems, and finally changed to using high-energy methods, directly lasing steel balls.”

"Can it be installed?" Guo Fei probably understood a little bit, and he was too lazy to ask, and said directly, "Everyone is not required to have it. How long will it take to have [-]?"

"God, are you kidding?" The man exclaimed, "This is an experimental product, just like the electromagnetic gun you used to use. I want to mass-produce it. I can't answer this question for you. This person who needs a factory Come to answer, but you can rest assured that the materials we use are not complicated and can be manufactured on a large scale."

Guo Fei put down the electromagnetic gun in his hand, "You guys take the lead in doing this. What materials do you need? I don't have them in New York. I'll find them for you when the heavy rain is over. The factory will start preparations now. I need as many weapons as possible."

Guo Fei was a little excited. If tens of thousands of electromagnetic guns were in his hands, the United States might be regained in a short time.

The heavy rain was falling, the radiation value began to decrease, and the radiation cloud above the head was much thinner. In the satellite cloud image, the dark clouds over New York were gradually shrinking, and the radiation cloud was also disappearing.

Finally, after five days of torrential rain, the sky began to lighten and the rain finally stopped.

The top of the head is still gray, but compared to before, the outside is much brighter, and the blue above can be vaguely seen in some places.

However, it is still not allowed to walk freely in the city. After the heavy rain, the radiation value on the streets is still much higher than the normal value. Although the radiation contained in the rainwater behind is decreasing, it is still too high compared to before.

When it first started to rain, it exceeded the standard by 200 times, but now it has dropped to more than [-] times. Compared with before, the heavy rain has more than doubled the radiation in New York City.

The fire trucks were driven onto the streets by people in protective suits, and the water cannons kept spraying the buildings on the streets. The waterworks stopped pumping water from the river when the heavy rain came, and now the radiation inside is less than fifty times , washed over it, rapidly reducing the radiation value.

The people in the building were not idle either. The fire hose at the safety staircase was connected, and a large amount of clean water was washing the outer wall of the corridor. On the roof, there were also people busy washing it.

Several radiometers are placed in the middle of the street. The children lie down by the window every day, holding up the binoculars, staring at the values ​​above with their eyes wide open.

For the time being, the flushing work is only carried out in these buildings where they live and work. There are not enough protective clothing, and there is no need to reduce radiation in places where there are no people. When people can go out of the buildings where they have been staying for almost a week, the focus of flushing will be bias towards those peripheral areas.

"Wow……"

Two days later, a large group of children cheered and rushed out of the building and stood on the street, shouting and jumping non-stop.

The radiation value has been reduced to the level before the heavy rain. Although it can be reduced if it continues, the rate of decline has begun to slow down significantly. Looking at the expectant eyes of the children, Guo Fei finally announced the lifting of the ban.
