“Upgrading the weapon production station is complete. You can now produce a large variety of weapons,” the notification of the Mechanical System rang out.

Wu Peng could not wait, and he accessed the operating pod once again.

After the station was upgraded, there were several new items in the weapon production station.

Other than being able to produce a larger variety of firearms, he could now also choose to produce detection devices, surveillance devices, and much more.

Wu Peng accessed the tab with the detection devices. He was overwhelmed by the series of devices that appeared before him.

The life detector could detect traces of life underground and had a radius of 50 meters that could be upgraded to increase its detection radius.

Wu Peng immediately thought about the situations that the device would be useful in when he saw the device.

It was rather useful in search and rescue missions, as well as to search for underground secret bases.

The Metal Detector could detect a variety of underground ores that had metal content. It also had a radius of 50 meters and could be upgraded to increase its detection radius.

Wu Peng did not have to think too much about this item. He had to get one in the future.

Currently, Wu Peng sorely lacked a variety of ores.

He would not mind having any amount of gold, silver, copper, steel, and lead.

Just producing bullets required an exorbitant amount of copper. He would need a wealth of metals in the future if he produced even more advanced weapons.

The Rare Element Detector could detect the ores of rare elements around him. It had a radius of 30 meters and could be upgraded to not only increase its detection radius but also expand the assortment of the elements it could detect.

Wu Peng could not help but lick his lips when he saw this.

Rare elements such as uranium, lithium, titanium, and radium would allow him to produce some great items.

For example, uranium would turn into enriched uranium after it was refined. That was a core ingredient in nuclear weapons.

As long as he continued to upgrade the weapon production station, he should be able to produce several small-scale nuclear missiles in the future.

Wu Peng thought about what happened to the countries that possessed nuclear weapons after the apocalypse arrived. He wondered what happened to their nuclear weapons.

They might have landed in the hands of bad people or some insane leader.

The world would enter a terrifying nuclear winter once the nuclear bombs were detonated.

That would be the cherry on top.

However, these were things that he did not have to consider for the time being.

After he scanned through the catalog, Wu Peng accessed the selection of surveillance devices.

The thermal-imaging surveillance camera had a surveillance radius of a hundred meters.

The armed surveillance camera could automatically detect friend from foe and attack any enemies it encountered if it was paired with the smart surveillance equipment.

Wu Peng stroked his chin and thought to himself, “These were all good items. Unfortunately, they are all too expensive. I’ll have to install these around my shelter in the future.”

He then accessed the selection of scouting drones.

The mini scouting drone could perform scouting activities low in the air from a medium distance away.

The bird scouting drone could engage in long-distance scouting activities, and it was equipped with a solar power charging system, which meant that it could stay in the air for a longer time. It was also silent, which greatly increased its stealth capabilities.

The eagle eye invisible scouting drone could engage in ultra-long-distance scouting and was equipped with a high-speed solar power charging system. Its flying speed could reach 600 km/h. It was also coated with an anti-radar material and was incredibly silent. It would be imperceptible by enemies.

Wu Peng would like to choose the Eagle Eye. However, he immediately dismissed that idea when he saw the price of the drone.

The eagle eye invisible scouting drone cost 2,000 points.

Currently, Wu Peng would not be able to afford that even if he sold everything he had.

As for the mini scouting drone, Wu Peng also chose to forgo that even though it would only cost 500 points.

The members of Viper were all extremely cautious. The benefits would not outweigh the losses if they accidentally noticed the drone and became alert.

He weighed the situation and felt that the bird scouting drone was the most suitable choice. Wu Peng could just afford the 1,000 points it required.

Its attributes were also rather balanced.

After weighing the pros and cons repeatedly, Wu Peng decided on the bird scouting drone.

After his points were depleted, a white flash of light shone on the weapon production station. A drone that was about the length of his forearm appeared on the station.

Wu Peng carefully lifted the drone. It weighed around three kilograms and had a beautiful streamlined shape, which made it look like a bird from a distance.

He flipped open the instruction manual that came with the drone and followed the instructions to install the application needed to operate the bird scouting drone on his phone.

“Oh, I just remembered that there’s no satellite signal here. Can I still use this item?” Wu Peng murmured silently to himself.

He had deliberated over which model of drone he should purchase but had completely forgotten about the issue of not having a signal.

He tapped open the operating application on his phone and was surprised when he managed to connect it with the drone, and the image captured by the camera of the bird scouting drone appeared on the screen of his phone.

He tapped on the drone gently, and it flew through the air. The drone did buzz constantly, but its volume was not loud.

The bird flew straight up into the air from the station before suspending itself in midair.

Wu Peng controlled the drone and got it to fly in all directions for some time. He gradually familiarized himself with how to operate the drone before he got it to land on the station.

“The items produced by the Mechanical System are all rather decent. Not only does it not need the Internet, but also there is no lag at all,” Wu Peng told himself. He now had increased respect for the Mechanical System.

Even though he spent all his time with this mysterious system, he did not know much about it.

However, it was useless for him to think about these things now. Currently, it was more important for him to expose Viper.

Wu Peng had worked the entire day and was starving. He went to the beginner crop nursery and harvested a few bundles of wheat and made a dozen buns.

Wu Peng let out a bitter smile when he saw the plain buns in his hands.

Even though the buns were delicious, he could not stand it anymore after eating so many of them. It was time for him to make something else.

However, seeds were extremely valuable in this post-apocalyptic world. There would often be bloody conflicts over a small bag of seeds.

Wu Peng chewed on his bun, and Ye Wei’s face suddenly appeared in his mind.

“That’s right. How could I have forgotten to ask her about it? The law enforcers would definitely have seeds.” Thinking about this, Wu Peng gulped down the rest of his dinner before he comfortably went to sleep.

…

The sun rose and it was a new day.

Wu Peng got up early and headed to the law enforcers’ base.

Ye Wei was in her office and stared blankly at her computer screen. No one knew what she was thinking. She did not even notice Wu Peng walk to her side.

Wu Peng curiously stretched his neck over to have a look. He wanted to see what Ye Wei was looking at.

In the end, Ye Wei saw a face suddenly appear in front of her and became startled. She went to stand up abruptly and caused their heads to hit each other and caused both of them to cry out in pain simultaneously.

Ye Wei rubbed her forehead and glared at Wu Peng with an annoyed expression. “Why didn’t you knock before entering?”

Wu Peng blinked and said with a smile, “Then let me rub that for you.”

Ye Wei immediately shifted her body and leaned backward. “What do you want?”

“I analyzed the situation after I went back yesterday. Could Viper’s goal be to isolate Jiang City so that they could take over the city?” Wu Peng asked.

Ye Wei immediately nodded in agreement when she heard that. “I was also thinking about that, so I sent a team of law enforcers to guard the last satellite signal station.”
