Pirate: My Piltover technology is far ahead!

Chapter 7 Doing Everything Possible to Change Fate

Small in size, light in weight, easy to store, and high in calories, these sugars can provide the human body with a lot of energy. In the current situation, they can play a very important role.

Moreover, its applications extend beyond this; it can increase the power of gunpowder explosions, enhance the adhesion of incendiary bombs, and play many other roles.

For the same volume of material, white sugar can exert a significantly greater effect.

"Everyone! Give it your all! Every second we act now increases our chances of survival! This isn't for others; it's for yourselves!"

The supplies quickly piled up on their shoulders, and Oran himself was also carrying a large amount of supplies. His exoskeleton was already operating at full capacity, which led Oran to discover some unusual things.

Oran felt much stronger than before he came to this sea, and he planned to have a physical examination after leaving to determine his current condition.

Oran led them to the settlement he had discussed with Ivankov, a depression in a canyon that Ivankov and Ginny had seen before they discovered Oran's ship, which could serve as a temporary settlement.

Now the team includes some locals from God Valley, who are more familiar with the terrain than Ivankov and Oran, and have even found a path in the canyon.

Whether they were strong adults or old and weak, everyone was carrying packages of all sizes. Under these circumstances, everyone had to do their part; it was just a matter of how much.

"Brother Oran, there's a cave about 200 meters away. The entrance looks narrow, but it's quite spacious inside, enough to hide many people. There's also a spring inside!"

As they approached the gathering place, a child who looked no more than ten years old suddenly pointed to a patch of bushes and said something.

"A spring? How big is it?"

"Yeah, my friends and I sometimes shower there; there are even live fish in there."

The boy spread his arms and gestured towards Oran, indicating that the spring appeared to be quite large.

"Rat! Didn't I tell you you're not allowed to go to the canyon? Fine, forget it."

A woman next to him wanted to scold him, but in this situation, she was in no mood for it. She was doing her housework as usual when she was surprised by the changes that had occurred in God Valley.

Although she escaped with her child, her husband is a member of the Wang Guojun army and his whereabouts are currently unknown. Faced with this painful reality and an uncertain future, she is now under immense psychological pressure.

"Alright, ma'am, save your energy. Your son has solved a big problem for us."

Besides food, water is also a problem. Although God Valley has abundant rivers, the Celestial Dragons are aware of this.

Humans need water to live, so the Celestial Dragons will inevitably hunt their prey along water sources.

Since there are fish in the spring, it must be connected to the outside world through an underground river, which can ensure a sufficient water supply. Such a hidden water source is perfect.

"Rat, besides you, how many other people know about that place?"

"And have you adults ever heard of that place before?"

Based on Rat's description, it was a good hiding place. If others also knew about this place, they might bring more people there, which would mean an increased risk of exposure.

"Only a few of my friends know about it. I've never seen anyone else there before. It's our secret hideout. I just wonder how they are doing now."

"No, I've lived here most of my life and I've never heard of any caves in the canyon."

Local residents gave their answers one after another. According to Rat, he discovered the place while playing an adventure game, but the older generation did not know about it. It seems that the cave was formed in recent years due to geological activity.

Oran first led the people to the agreed meeting point, then checked the condition of the cave and included it in the area of ​​the meeting point.

"Take a break and replenish your energy. We'll have to make a few more trips later. You guys don't need to come with us. Gather some dry branches or other kindling around here; we'll need them later."

If anyone is familiar with the terrain around here, please draw me a map, the more detailed the better.

Along the way, Oran also gained a general understanding of their physical abilities. Even if the weak tried their best to carry things, they couldn't carry much. Fortunately, there were still many places that needed manpower.

"In addition, you need to dig holes around here. First, dig a big pit like this, then dig a small pit from the other side, and connect them from the bottom. Then, dig three trenches like this, and cover them with something."

There were also some crowbars, shovels and other tools in the granary. Oran used these to make a demonstration of a smokeless stove that could block out light and smoke.

This greatly conceals the firelight and smoke, further enhancing the concealment effect.

Shortly after, Oran received a message from Ivankov that they had found the shipyard workers and were leading them to the gathering place. At that moment, Xiong also approached.

"What's wrong, Xiong? Is there a problem?"

"It's nothing, I've rested well. I just wanted to know, what's our next plan?"

Looking at Oran who was studying the map, Xiong asked softly.

"Take down some things, then set up equipment in those areas to hide this area."

Oran was not dismantling anything but his own ship. Although the plan was that the ship could be used for teleportation after the flying gate was completed, the larger the object, the longer the teleportation would take.

While the ship was indeed very valuable, Oran had enough materials and time to build a new one.

Oran ultimately decided to use the limited transport capacity to transport living people away, and the ship that came with him would take its final bow here.

For example, it could be modified into a massive self-destruct device, and the holographic projection on the ship could also be modified to cover a larger area from several directions by reducing the image quality, provided that the energy problem is solved first.

Oran briefly explained the situation to Xiong, since he would have to explain it again once the craftsmen from Ivankov's side were brought back.

The bear didn't ask any further questions and simply pointed to the other side.

"Oran, the person you told me to keep an eye on, she doesn't respond to me at all, doesn't say anything, and doesn't even eat. You should go and see for yourself. She's only responded to you a few times so far."

"I understand. Sit a little longer. We need to make more preparations before those Celestial Dragons' so-called game starts."

Oran got up and walked to the side. A slightly thin figure sat on a rock with a very wary look in her eyes. When she sensed someone approaching, the hair on her body almost stood on end.

Update times are roughly fixed around 12:00 and 23:00.
