Mobile City Farming Guide

Chapter 201 Aircraft Carriers and Gundams (4.6K)

Even with two steel mills, Tomorrow Alliance wouldn't be able to process so much metal in a short time.

Li Ye had no choice but to place them all on the B1 floor, which was under the control of the middle level, and deal with them slowly at a later time.

Meanwhile, A9 sent out several recruited mobile cities to complete the handover of the basin area with the Tomorrow Alliance.

These mobile cities are all Tier 3 assault types and usually carry 1-2 Tier 1 mobile cities.

Their level 1 mobile cities are also configured at around level 3.

Currently, the five mobile cities of Tomorrow Alliance are ready, and with Li Ye's order, they are heading towards the A9 pass.

On the way, Li Ye casually opened the system panel.

In the past few days, a new round of intelligence has been updated.

The total refresh time this time is 8 hours, so its value won't be too high.

1. The Conqueror in the Red Ridge District has been urgently reactivated as a mobile city and is retreating with the human forces to the southern part of the Western Wasteland, where it is expected to settle in the Basin region. (Intelligence Value: Average)

[2. In the Level 4 region of Southern Liuzhou, the Flame Desert, the Imperial Monster "Fire Eater" Gidon has appeared, raising high alert among the fire elemental civilizations in the area. (Intelligence Value: Excellent)]

3. In order to inflict heavy casualties on the giants, the defenders at the Wall Pass extensively employed the pitch sea tactic. (Intelligence Value: Excellent)

4. Given that the southern region of the Western Wasteland has been pacified, the three major human organizations held a meeting to discuss whether to undertake a series of continental-scale projects in the south. However, due to concerns about the Wasteland God Temple deep underground in the wasteland, this agenda was temporarily shelved. (Intelligence Value: Rare)

5. The current casualty rate of the Giant Civilization is 47%. (Intelligence Value: Rare)

"The amount of information in this intelligence report is quite good," Li Ye nodded.

What caught Liye's attention the most was the second piece of intelligence.

"There are actually elemental civilizations in this world?" His expression changed slightly. "I need to find an opportunity to ask the Titan Throne and find out what elemental civilizations are all about."

More than that, Gidon's reappearance surprised him.

"Geralas again, Gidon again, the Monarch monsters seem to be active quite frequently lately."

A few hours later, Tomorrow Alliance arrived at the A9 checkpoint.

“Oh, you’ve arrived just in time,” Albert said. “Dream Island arrived about ten minutes ago and is waiting for you.”

"really?"

Li Ye turned his head and looked up at the sky.

The sky remained empty, devoid of anything.

He was initially puzzled, but quickly realized what was going on.

"They must be wearing camouflage!"

Just as he expected, a dozen seconds later, a floating island in the air revealed itself, having shed its disguise.

Upon seeing the Sky Dream Island appear in the sky, everyone was stunned into silence.

Then something even more shocking happened.

The entire city of Tomorrow suddenly rose into the air and slowly drifted toward Dream Island.

There was a sudden uproar and panic on the deck.

Li Ye wasn't too panicked, because he knew that Kongmeng Island had activated its Level 5 magnetic adsorption device.

At the same time, four other mobile cities were also attracted and rose up in turn.

A few minutes later, the Tomorrow Alliance landed on Sky Dream Island.

“Goodbye, Bishop Albert! Thank you so much for taking care of me these past few days,” Li Ye said sincerely.

Albert patted him gently on the shoulder, said a few words of encouragement, and then boarded the helicopter and left.

Li Ye then looked at the Sky Dream Island in front of him.

Currently, the five cities of Tomorrow Alliance appear to be in its anchorage area.

This area is full of mobile cities, survivor convoys, and bounty hunters.

The Sky Dream Island did not rush to leave, but continued to hover above the A9 checkpoint.

In the following period, several Level 3 mobile cities arrived on the ground via magnetic levitation devices.

It turns out that they also came to this blue sea of ​​Nanliuzhou by taking the Sky Dream Island flight.

Not only that, but a convoy of bounty hunters and survivors also arrived on the ground.

"These guys are really fearless!" Old Zhou exclaimed in surprise.

Li Ye gently shook his head.

Judging from their equipment configuration, they are mostly Tier 3. With the A9 pass as their base, they should be able to explore Southern Liuzhou.

To make proper arrangements for the newly arrived Tomorrow Alliance, the high-ranking officials of Sky Dream Island specially dispatched a staff member.

"Hello, are you the Tomorrow Alliance that Bishop Albert mentioned, the ones who want to go to the Terranis Ocean?" the staff member greeted warmly.

"Yes," Li Ye replied. "How long does it take to get from Kongmeng Island to the Old Civilization Area?"

The other person simply shrugged.

"One day."

"So fast?"

"You'll soon witness the speed of travel to Sky Dream Island," the staff member replied. "During this day, you can take your time to explore Sky Dream Island. There's a market on the island where you can easily purchase your own supplies."

Li Ye's eyes lit up immediately upon hearing this.

"The market? Do they sell level 4 items there?"

The staff nodded.

"There must be."

33座1级移动城市，16座2级移动城市，4座3级移动城市。

Li Ye counted the number of mobile cities in the mooring area.

As for the survivor convoy and the bounty hunters, there were simply too many of them and they were parked too far apart to count.

One thing in particular caught his attention.

The lord of a level 3 mobile city takes the initiative to invite the lord of a level 1 mobile city to become his companion.

Almost instantly, Li Ye understood.

Tier 3 mobile cities can use production workshops to create a range of Tier 3 city components and weapons to arm Tier 1 cities.

Tier 1 cities thus become its "satellite" cities.

On the other hand, this Tier 1 city also experienced a sudden and explosive increase in strength in a short period of time.

Overall, it is a mutually beneficial cooperation.

After all, everyone has witnessed the power of "small stature, big fist".

In a very short time, the level 3 city lord was surrounded by level 1 city lords.

For a Tier 1 mobile city, there is little sense of security in surviving in the wasteland, and collecting resources to upgrade to a Tier 2 city is too laborious.

Becoming a partner of a tier 3 city is undoubtedly like catching a ride on a wave of rapid development.

"Should we also recruit a mobile city?" Lin Wu asked, turning his head.

After pondering for a moment, Li Ye gently shook his head.

Tomorrow's Alliance is very busy right now.

Not only do we need to absorb the newly absorbed population, but we also need to prepare for a possible naval battle in the ocean. Moreover, we haven't collected all the level 3 production projects yet.

It's okay if we miss this opportunity; there are plenty of Tier 1 mobile cities in the wasteland anyway.

Before heading to the market, Li Ye asked the staff member who had greeted them to show them around the floating island.

Before setting off, he made a special trip to the production workshop and invested resources to begin building two Black Rain bombers. As for the corresponding crew members, they were naturally selected and trained on the Tomorrow.

Because of previous experience in training gunship crew members, the training efficiency this time will undoubtedly be much faster.

Not only Li Ye, but Zhou Xing, Yang Zheng, Fang Yong and Lin Wu also came along.

The staff were clearly not new to this, and they led them on the tour with ease.

He even drove a 12-seat sightseeing vehicle.

According to him, Kongmeng Island has an area of ​​approximately 83 square kilometers, which is equivalent to the urban area of ​​a large city.

As a mobile island in the air, its components are completely different from those of a mobile island at sea. Its main core component is a Level 4 anti-gravity core, driven by a high-density energy matrix and levitating by distorting a local force field. Located at the very center of the island's base, the core has multiple layers of protection; its collapse would cause the entire mobile island to crash.

Secondly, there is a four-stage hover engine array, which consists of a group of thrusters distributed along the edge of the island, specifically responsible for adjusting the island's direction and speed.

Next is the Level 4 ecological dome covering the upper layer of the island, which can simulate the atmospheric environment, regulate the climate, support vegetation growth, water circulation, and even simulate seasonal changes.

Finally, just as important as the Level 4 anti-gravity core is the Level 4 island structure framework.

Unlike mobile islands that move at sea, mobile islands in the air must be equipped with an island structure framework.

It plays a crucial role similar to the human skeleton, maintaining the overall shape of the island, withstanding extreme stress, and facilitating the addition of other functional modules.

The size limit, mobility, and production capacity of an aerial mobile island are entirely determined by its skeleton.

Li Ye and the others listened with great interest.

"How many level 4 engineer-type cities would it take to build it?" Zhou Xing asked.

"Around 15 seats," the staff member replied.

Seemingly having guessed what Li Ye and the others were thinking, he gently shook his head.

"A Level 4 floating island is extremely expensive to build, and only world-class organizations can afford it. Ordinary city alliances should not even dream of owning a floating island."

Li Ye, however, did not feel any different.

Judging from the level 4 components of Sky Island, none of them seem like something the Alliance of Tomorrow could afford.

Kongmeng Island has a population of over 60 and is divided into residential, military, industrial, energy, farmland, and lake areas.

It has a Level 4 urban camouflage, is activated 24/7, and has a signal jamming device to prevent enemy tracking.

This floating island is fully capable of supporting 60 people.

The mobile city stationed on the island has a complete range of production projects, capable of producing all the basic necessities for the residents' clothing, food, housing, and transportation.

However, in order to save resources, the level of these items is limited to between normal and level 1.

The island of Sky Dream is also home to a mobile urban warfare cluster, equipped with various weapons such as artillery, machine guns, missiles, and railguns, as well as multiple air units, all of which are at Level 4 standard.

This means it can launch a regional war at any time.

At this very moment, Sky Dream Island has been activated.

The anti-gravity core at the center of the island's bottom glowed with a ghostly blue light, and the dust that was originally suspended in the air began to float upwards.

The island structure's framework began to increase its energy charging speed, and a flow of energy resembling molten gold appeared between the various structures, with high-pressure steam emanating from multiple rivets.

The entire floating island began to rise slowly.

After climbing several hundred meters, Sky Dream Island began to move forward.

Very stable, very fast.

This is how Li Ye and the others feel.

According to staff, the speed on Kongmeng Island is usually 60-80 kilometers per hour.

Because there are no terrain obstacles in the air, its daily journey is faster than that of a mobile city on land.

After a brief tour of Sora Island, the staff led the group to the market area.

The market area is divided into two parts.

The first part is specifically for selling various goods related to clothing, food, housing, and transportation to the local residents of Kongmeng Island.

The second section is specifically open to the public, allowing bounty hunters, survivor caravans, and mobile cities to purchase and trade supplies. It sells blueprints, weapons, equipment, city components, and various resources, ranging from common to level 1-4.

There aren't many level 4 items in the market. Apart from the occasional item sold by a lord, the vast majority are directly sold by the official shop of Sky Dream Island.

Li Ye and the others immediately plunged into the shop.

What first caught everyone's attention was the contract manufacturing of a Level 4 vehicle.

"A Tier 4 aircraft carrier?" Fang Yong's expression changed.

In fact, he had already vaguely guessed it before leaving the wilderness.

The naval combat forces of a level 3 mobile city are mainly conventional ships such as cruisers, destroyers, and submarines; aircraft carriers can only be unlocked and manufactured at level 4.

The shop also listed in detail the requirements for building an aircraft carrier.

1万单位4级铁矿，5000单位4级合金，2000单位精密载具配件，1个4级核动力反应堆。

The production workshop can only produce various components for the aircraft carrier, but cannot complete the assembly; the mobile city needs to assemble them itself.

If multiple engineer-type mobile cities assist, the speed will be increased.

"1 units of level 4 iron ore, and other resources starting at several thousand, who can afford to build that?" Yang Zheng exclaimed in astonishment.

Li Ye wasn't particularly surprised.

After all, aircraft carriers are the largest ships at sea, several times the size of other ships, so it's normal that they require a lot of resources to build.

Moreover, as the mobile city level increases, the means of acquiring resources will likely also increase.

The shop was managed by a middle-aged elder of the Iron Oath Brotherhood, who warmly welcomed everyone.

"The processing fee for an aircraft carrier is 100 million crystal coins. If you are interested in purchasing it and have prepared the corresponding resources, you will need to undergo our review," he said.

“You’ve misunderstood. We’re just a Level 3 city alliance,” Li Ye replied.

Zhou Xing thought for a moment and quickly raised a question that he was very interested in.

"Since a level 4 mobile city can build an aircraft carrier, does the shop also have aerospace carrier production projects?"

The middle-aged elder shook his head.

"The space carrier is a Tier 5 production project, which requires more resources to build."

Li Ye really wanted to ask if they had any land-based motherships, but he immediately came to his senses and dismissed the idea.

In fact, mobile cities are already considered land-based motherships.

Next, the middle-aged elder led everyone to visit another OEM (Original Equipment Manufacturer) project for Level 4 vehicles.

If the aircraft carrier surprised everyone, then the Tier 4 vehicle in front of them was truly astonishing.

Li Ye was completely stunned when he saw the Level 4 vehicle diagram displayed in front of him.

"Isn't this just a Gundam?"

What appeared before him at that moment was an armored robot.

This robot is over 100 meters tall, with a streamlined body and camouflage paint, and a large backpack-style thruster assembly on its back.

The main weapons are a giant machine gun, a foldable cannon, and a saber that can be unfolded at any time.

Secondary weapons include a shoulder-mounted missile bay, various types of giant grenades, and a deployable giant composite shield.

Its land speed is 75 km/h, its jump height is 50 meters, and it is adaptable to terrain with an incline of up to 45 degrees.
The shop also listed in detail the requirements for building this "Gundam".

3000单位4级铁矿，1000单位4级合金，1000单位4级精密配件，1个核动力炉。

The middle-aged elders called it a "mobile soldier".

Li Ye stared into the middle-aged elder's eyes and asked the question that concerned him most.

Can it fly?

The middle-aged elder simply shrugged.

"Do you see any aviation-grade equipment installed on it?"

Li Ye quickly turned around and glanced at it, but after taking a closer look, he was immediately disappointed.

"Sigh." He couldn't help but sigh and shake his head repeatedly.

A Gundam that can't fly is ultimately missing something.

After all, he grew up watching Gundam anime, and his favorite is Mobile Suit Gundam 00.

"Alliance Leader, why do you look so disappointed?" Zhou Xing asked, puzzled.

".fine."

Li Ye quickly adjusted his mood.

This is only a Level 4 Gundam. If it were a Level 5 or higher Gundam, it would definitely be able to reach the standards of going to the sky, the ground, and the sea, as seen in anime.

It can even travel in space!
Items such as beam sabers, railguns, floating cannons, energy fields, quantum burst systems, energy beams capable of shooting up to 1 kilometer long, and Minovsky propulsion devices powerful enough to slice through the surface of a planet.
There will definitely be some.
