Chapter 103 The Stalker's Thoughts

In fact, it's obvious to anyone with eyes to see that, despite the fact that the official side completely overwhelms the awakened ones they drove away, both in terms of personnel and weaponry, they are still far superior.

But as time goes by, those who eventually gain superpowers and awaken will inevitably step to the forefront and occupy high positions.

Even though they already knew what was going to happen, they still didn't want to give up the power they had already gained.

Therefore, those who currently hold real power are also waiting. While enjoying the power they currently possess, they are also waiting for the awakened ones to grow.

It's important to understand that these people who now wield great power were just mid-level officials a few months ago. So, while they did have a desire for power, it wasn't particularly strong.

That is why, although they were trying to expel the awakened ones in order to gain power, they did not kill them or make enemies of them.

On the contrary, once those who have awakened have grown up, they can still maintain the power they currently hold by joining the old regime.

After all, even if those awakened individuals eventually take over the island nation, they will still need these mid-level managers to maintain the normal operation of the government.

Therefore, the situation on the island nation is somewhat divided at this time. Although the survivors are clearly divided into two different camps, there has been no fierce conflict between the two camps.

Dong Qi was relatively lucky; the island nation he chose to land at was not only the closest to South Korea.

More importantly, this place is an isolated island. When those mutated marine creatures launched their initial fierce attack, the island nation's leadership realized that they did not have enough manpower to defend it. Therefore, even though this place was very important in peacetime, it was eventually abandoned by the island nation's government.

Most importantly, during the retreat, because there was ample ammunition, the vast majority of the residents living here left with the island nation's troops.

The survivors still remaining here today, apart from those who did not evacuate with us and stayed behind, are all members of free organizations who refused to be governed by the island nation's government and were subsequently expelled from the survivor base.

This is why the survivors who remained here did not repair the equipment of the companies in the paralyzed industrial park, unlike those at the island nation's base.

On the contrary, even though the industrial park was not attacked by mutated marine creatures, the survivors who entered the industrial park only collected some survival supplies and metal tools that could be used directly.

So at this moment, the equipment in the industrial park, although it is paralyzed and unusable, is still abandoned in the industrial park.

Although the equipment was temporarily ignored, Dong Qi's drive to the industrial park caused many survivors to start paying attention to the situation there again.

After all, the place had been repeatedly looted by different survivors, and now they suddenly saw strangers driving there.

Although in the eyes of the survivors, Dong Qi's beloved car couldn't carry much, there were still vehicles heading to this abandoned place.

Even though they didn't know Dong Qi's true intentions, some of the survivors still wanted to interfere.

In their view, Dong Qi's solo drive to the heavy industrial park must be to obtain some important item from within the park.

If they could intercept Dong Qi on his return journey, even if the items Dong Qi was looking for were useless to them, they could still use the intercepted items to exchange for some supplies from the island nation's government.

As time went by, the survivors who remained here discovered that, having lost the control of the imperial court, although they could still obtain the supplies they hadn't taken with them during their hasty retreat from some buildings.

However, as time goes by, the amount of supplies left in those buildings is decreasing. Having become accustomed to modern life, their standard of living will continue to decline if they lack those seemingly insignificant daily necessities.

Therefore, in order to achieve a better standard of living in the future, they did not mind obtaining some items from Dong Qi, this outsider.

After all, in their view, since the island nation's government had chosen to withdraw from here, everything left behind belonged to them, the survivors who still lived here.

If other survivors living here find valuables in some buildings, they might just grumble to themselves with envy.

However, if any outsiders want to excavate from here and take away some valuable items, they will absolutely not agree.

When Dong Qi drove into the industrial park, those who had been monitoring him did not follow his car into the park.

Instead, they immediately returned to their settlement and then notified their respective team leaders.

After confirming Dong Qi's destination, the leaders of those teams all began to contact the leaders they knew in other teams.

To prevent any accidents and the possibility of retaliation from the island nation's government after intercepting valuables, they planned to recruit more people to join the operation.

Although this would dilute the gains later, it would also greatly increase the probability of avoiding retaliation from the island nation's government.

Dong Qi had no idea what the leaders of those surveillance teams were thinking; he had actually discovered he was being followed by others on the way.

Even so, Dong Qi did not choose to give up the mission quietly. Instead, he ignored the followers and headed straight for the industrial park.

The reason for this is that Dong Qi has already decided that vehicles will enter the industrial park.

Unless there is an unforeseen circumstance, even if his body has reached the point where he can ignore small-caliber firearms, he does not intend to get out of the car while collecting materials.

Dong Qi planned to stay in his car for the entire trip to ensure his safety, unless he collected enough upgrade materials to leave the industrial park.

Because he was determined to thoroughly inspect every inch of the industrial park, Dong Qi didn't even spare the metal gates of each company after entering the park.

Initially, Dong Qi used metal projectiles to directly blast through the cement wall that held the gate in place.

However, after several attacks, Dong Qi discovered that although this method was very convenient, despite the fact that the electromagnetic gun used solid metal projectiles, Dong Qi was unable to retrieve them after firing.

Although metal bullets are small in size and use little material, it is important to know that they are made from refined base alloys.

After several experiments, it was found that the basic alloy extracted from the metal gates was insufficient to compensate for the basic alloy consumed in manufacturing the metal projectiles.

Therefore, if the sole purpose is to destroy the metal gate using an electromagnetic cannon, even disregarding energy consumption, the metal materials required to manufacture the ammunition would be far from sufficient.
