Mobile City Farming Guide

Chapter 239: It's a total hit! (4.1K)

For a time, both the Tomorrow Alliance and Hiss's forces were suppressed and unable to raise their heads.

Li Ye quickly came up with an idea.

"Yang Zheng, do you see the giant power engine on the moving island? Bomb it with your electromagnetic railgun!"

"Roger that!"

Yang Zheng nodded, then waved his hand.

"Fire!"

As the electromagnetic railgun fired, a blinding spot of light appeared on the ocean.

The shell ripped through the sky, carrying immense and terrifying kinetic energy, heading straight for the power engine of the moving island.

In an instant, the entire sea area was illuminated by dazzling light.

But the moving island suddenly activated its energy shield barrier.

The instant the shell made contact with the barrier, a lightning-like plasma arc erupted in the air, and the seawater within tens of meters instantly vaporized, forming a billowing white fog.

Ripples spread across the surface of the barrier, and hexagonal light patterns rapidly expanded from the point of impact, dispersing the kinetic energy of the shell across the entire barrier.

The projectile struggled to move forward within the barrier, its metal outer shell decomposing and melting in the energy field, gradually turning into liquid metal.

Finally, it scattered like mercury hitting an invisible wall, and the dispersed energy was discharged into the sea through the heat dissipation fins at the bottom of the island. The surrounding seawater instantly boiled and churned, and steam clouds shot into the sky.

"This"

Everyone was stunned.

The electromagnetic railgun, which had always been invincible, had failed.

Heath sighed softly.

"This is a level 4 energy shield barrier, so it's not easy to break through."

“I see.” A strange light appeared in Li Ye’s eyes. “If we had a level 4 electromagnetic railgun, we could destroy it.”

With such powerful firepower and defense, he and Heath would likely have to pay a heavy price to destroy the moving island.

Just then, something unusual happened in the sky.

Looking up from the wilderness, he saw a point of light.

That was none other than the Iron Brotherhood's mobile suit AM-W2.

Of the eight mobile suits that were originally engaged in combat, only this one has survived.

Under everyone's watchful eyes, AM-W2 swooped down toward the moving island at an unprecedented speed.

Li Ye suddenly realized what was happening and his heart was filled with excitement.

He realized that the mobile suit was there to clear the way for them!
The moving island clearly sensed something was wrong and quickly activated its energy shield device.

However, AM-W2, with the enormous kinetic energy generated by its high-speed descent, directly broke through the energy shield!
Its electronic warfare pods were activated, releasing dense electromagnetic pulses and data viruses. The level 3 mobile island was utterly unable to withstand this attack; the island's firepower system instantly descended into chaos, radar screens filled with static, and close-in weapon turrets spun erratically like headless flies.

As AM-W2 deployed its high-energy pulse sniper cannon, the barrel emitted a high-frequency hum as it charged, and a blinding blue-white beam of light pierced the sky, precisely striking the island's power engine. The ultra-high-temperature plasma beam directly melted through three layers of composite armor, triggering a chain reaction of explosions.

Immediately afterwards, the AM-W2's multi-missile bay opened, and dozens of missiles were launched, spreading out over the island to attack.

Some destroyed island defenses, some flew close to the ground to destroy auxiliary engines, and some specifically attacked the monster-infested mobile cities on the island.

That wasn't all; AM-W2 then drew its high-frequency vibrating saber and began slashing.

Wherever it passed, turrets, missile silos, and communication arrays were all cleaved in two.

“...Truly strong.” Li Ye couldn’t help but murmur.

"Leader, if you had to choose, which type of mobile suit would you choose—land, sea, or air?" Yang Zheng asked.

"Of course, we'll choose the air combat type," Li Ye replied without hesitation.

"It's actually a bit early to talk about this now," Fang Yong couldn't help but say.

Li Ye gently shook his head and smiled silently.

It's already quite late.

With the help of AM-W2, the moving island completely lost its power and ability to resist.

The level 1-2 monster civilizations on the island were like frightened birds, with their mobile cities and vehicles fleeing in panic.

The forces of Tomorrow Alliance and Hiss then opened fire indiscriminately.

buffet.

A thought suddenly came to mind when Li Ye left.

Level 1-2 monster civilizations have pitifully low resistance and are completely powerless against the Tomorrow Alliance's flying units and fleets.

Mobile cities, flying vehicles, watercraft—the monsters rode them, fleeing frantically. The forces of Tomorrow's Alliance and Hiss couldn't catch them all in the short term.

"Be careful not to sink the island," Heath warned. "We still need to collect metal and monster drops."

Li Ye nodded.

"clear."

After a long time, the war finally came to an end.

AM-W2 sheathed its weapons, soared into the sky once more, and departed.

The Tomorrow Alliance and the Hiss forces then began collecting the spoils of war.

To this end, Li Ye specially dispatched the Starship and the Engineership to the sea area where he had previously fought the ghouls to collect spoils of war.

He himself was in charge of commanding the Tomorrow, Iron Whale, and Peacemaker to collect loot on the moving islands.

At this moment, the moving island is filled with the wreckage of moving cities and vehicles, as well as countless monster corpses.

Li Ye and Xi Si divided up the area and each sent out personnel and vehicles to collect the loot.

This whole process took quite a while.

Li Ye briefly summarized what he had gained on the island.

It's still a huge pile of level 1-2 resources and design blueprints.

What surprised Li Ye the most was that he actually found a level 1 city crystal and a level 1 promotion blueprint.

After all, the island is home to multiple level 1-2 monster civilizations, so naturally there will be a lot of loot dropped.

Li Ye had already planned out what to do with the city crystals and blueprints.

Tomorrow Alliance currently has two Tier 1 mobile cities: Starship and Dawnship.

The Starship needs to maintain its "small size, big fist" designation, therefore no upgrades are necessary.

As an underground city, the upgraded Qiming will have more internal space, making it easier to transport vehicles and carry more resources.

If necessary, it can even be used to transport people in an emergency.

"Let's give it to the Qiming."

In the following period, Li Ye continued to explore, trying to find a structural blueprint to complete the upgrade set of three pieces.

The Alliance of Tomorrow ultimately failed to find a solution, but Hiss managed to obtain two structural blueprints.

After learning about the situation on Liye's side, Heath offered his suggestions.

Human world-class organizations have been collecting city crystals, structural blueprints, and advancement blueprints of all levels in the wasteland.

Therefore, he wanted to represent the Apocalypse Church in acquiring the city crystals and advancement blueprints from Li Ye.

Li Ye shook his head and refused, instead acquiring a structural blueprint from him.

He then gathered resources such as coal, iron ore, and fuel, preparing to send them to the Qiming.

Upon learning that it was Tomorrow Alliance's underground city that had advanced, Hiss reminded Li Ye of something.

The city's underground combat capabilities are almost non-existent, making it very risky to upgrade its ground defense capabilities.

Therefore, underground cities often create a huge underground space by drilling tunnels underground, and then stay in it to start upgrading.

“I see.” Li Ye suddenly realized. “Thank you for reminding me, Bishop Hiss.”

So while transferring the resources, he also wrote a note to remind Azhu.

Heath then stated that he would represent the Church of Apocalypse to acquire the Level 1 and 2 design blueprints in his possession. Before selling the lower-level design blueprints, Li Ye specifically had the city's neighborhood committee conduct a screening process to select design blueprints that met the residents' needs for daily life.

After the transaction, he received a total of 32 crystals.

Adding in what was collected on the moving island, the total suddenly reached 64 crystals.

In addition, he also possessed tens of thousands of units of level 1-2 iron ore, coal, cloth, fuel, and timber.

In addition, there are three to four hundred thousand units of metal.

Half an hour later, the Star and the Engineer returned, bringing back a pile of spoils.

The loot that Li Ye cares about most is the level 3 design blueprint.

The key components are a level 3 C4 explosive, a level 3 hull, and a level 3 propeller.

In addition, there is a vehicle upgrade blueprint and an energy-saving blueprint.

"If you feel it's not enough, come and ask me for more," he instructed.

Both the Starship and the Engineer brought back tens of thousands of units of metal.

Currently, Tomorrow Alliance has more than enough metal resources.

After finishing their meal, Li Ye prepared to leave.

Heath was responsible for continuing to guard the moving island.

In the future, the Apocalypse Church will send a group of Level 3 engineer-type cities to repair the island so that it can regain its mobility.

Li Ye arrived on the deck of the Saint in a Black Hawk helicopter and met with Heath.

Heath shook hands with him solemnly.

"The Tomorrow Alliance performed very well this time," he said. "Now, the recruitment for the Tomorrow Alliance is officially over."

As he spoke, he took out the reward he had prepared beforehand—the Saint was equipped with a resource teleportation device to receive resources transmitted from headquarters.

A three-tiered urban structure blueprint.

A complete set of books on nuclear technology, nuclear power plant operation, mobile suit piloting, and aircraft carrier piloting.

In addition, the human side also provided Li Ye with a set of Level 4 nuclear power plant design drawings.

After carefully collecting his reward, Li Ye fell into deep thought.

As always, the Tomorrow Alliance needs a good rest after the great battle.

Historia told Liye something.

A level 4 aerial mobile island belonging to the human side will pass through here.

It was the Sky Dream that Tomorrow Alliance had previously sailed on.

The higher-ups will draw a number of Tier 3 engineer-type cities from this mobile island in order to repair the newly captured island.

"Speaking of which, have you decided where you're going next?" Heath asked.

Li Ye fell into deep thought.

They either go to the southern continent of Ryukyu, or to the Arctic continent, or continue to develop in the ocean.

"Maybe the Alliance should just take this flight tomorrow," he thought.
On one hand, everyone can rest on the island, and on the other hand, they can travel to a new continent to continue their development.

Leaving the wild, they tend to turn back to the Arctic.

Although it has experienced submersion, the Frozen Continent is still open to exploration.

Heath then made a proposal.

"Your Tomorrow Alliance can try going to Guixu Continent."

Li Ye was taken aback.

"The Ruins of Return? Is there anything special about it, Archbishop Heath?"

Heath spoke softly.

"It's not exactly special, it's just that you can continue to develop there."

"This continent is very suitable for Tier 3 city alliances to visit."

"As for the specific situation of the continent, after the Alliance enters Sky Dream Island tomorrow, the island's high-level officials will come to you specifically to discuss the details, including how you will proceed and what the monster civilization there is like."

"So? Are you interested?"

After Heath finished speaking, he looked towards Liye.

After a moment's thought, Li Ye nodded slightly.

"Okay. We'll do it your way."

Before parting, the two shook hands again.

"See you later."

With a command from Li Ye, the Tomorrow began to recover its air force and fleet.

The recovery of fighter jets is quite convenient; they simply need to land one by one on the deck. However, destroyers and submarines are a bit more complicated, requiring dismantling at the shipyard before they can be stored in the vehicle depot.

Mechanical squid, being relatively small, can be easily housed inside.

The War Committee began compiling casualty statistics.

Although the battle went smoothly, the Tomorrow's forces still suffered some casualties—which was unavoidable.

In the following time, Li Ye went to the city simulation training cabin and entered all the books he had just acquired into it.

Nuclear technology, nuclear power plants, mobile suits, aircraft carriers.
These are all projects that Level 4 mobile cities primarily rely on.

Before advancing to a Tier 4 mobile city, Li Ye needs to lay a solid foundation.

Therefore, he needs to recruit and train a large number of technical personnel, as well as aircraft carrier crew members and mobile suit pilots, on the Tomorrow.

The Tomorrow currently has a population of over 50,000, so there is no shortage of people.

As highly skilled professionals, they receive extremely high compensation, starting directly at T4-3 level.

Upon hearing the news, the residents of Tomorrow Ship enthusiastically signed up.

Li Ye then entrusted the selection and training work to Lin Wu.

A few hours later, they arrived at Sky Dream Island.

Using a magnetic adsorption device, it brought the Tomorrow Alliance's mobile cities to the island one by one and deployed a batch of prepared Level 3 engineer-type mobile cities.

Upon landing on Sky Dream Island, Tomorrow Alliance's mobile city immediately began its land-based driving modifications.

Upon leaving the island, they unexpectedly discovered that there were far more mobile cities, survivor convoys, and bounty hunters stationed on Sky Dream Island than before.

Not only that, but the number of residents on the island has also increased significantly.

This is naturally because the silence agreement has been abolished.

Whiteman and his management team found Liye and bid him farewell.

They will disembark at Sky Dream Island and take it back to report.

"Thank you for your help during this time." Li Ye shook hands with him.

With money in their hands, Li Ye and his companions went to the official shop on the island, intending to purchase some new design blueprints.

However, the four quickly changed their minds.

This time, the store displayed two new design drawings.

Level 4 general-purpose mobile suit design blueprints.

Design drawings for a Level 4 nuclear power reactor.

The two combined require more than one million crystal coins.

"How about we buy this?" Fang Yong suggested.

“Yes, now we only need one more level 3 city crystal,” Yang Zheng said. “It’s just the final push.”

"With these two blueprints, we can avoid a lot of detours in the early stages," Zhou Xing added. "In that case, we can postpone our needs for now. If all else fails, we can just kill some level 3 monsters and pick up the drops."
