My apocalyptic heroine has come true

"...This stuff doesn't look like synthetic meat, but real beef chunks. They even look fresh... Does that shelter have a livestock farm?"

"That shelter is very small. There is not even any farmland, let alone a livestock farm." Shi Si shook his head.

Shi Yi looked at his fourth brother quietly.

The Shi family siblings are both very smart, and Shi Yi instantly understood the key information of this matter.

There's no small shelter like the one at the farm that could easily produce something of this quality...

Behind the shelter, there is a mountain whose top cannot be seen.

"Canned food is a good thing."

Shi Yi put the can into his arms and said meaningfully.

"Boom boom boom..."

At this moment, a pickup truck loaded with cargo slowly drove out of Shelter 2737.

Shi Yi's gaze fell on the administrator Xiao La in the co-pilot seat.

Watching Xiao La's car disappear in the desert, Shi Yi identified the direction in his mind - that was the direction of the town.

Shi Yi looked into the distance and said meaningfully:

"Our administrator is going to trade for supplies... I hope he can really give us something to save our lives this time."

"What if he can't come up with it?" Shi Si beside him asked in a low voice.

"What else can we do... We can't rely on others for our lives, right?"

Shi Yi threw the pickaxe in his hand into Shi Si's hand.

The brother and sister didn't say anything else and quietly walked out of the shelter's surveillance range.

As soon as he stepped out of the shelter, Shi Yi no longer concealed the expression of surprise on his face.

"Come on, tell me, what did you see yesterday?"

……

Ark Shelter.

The first thing Xia Xiaochi did when he woke up was to go to the backyard and drive his dune scooter.

Last night, with the joint cooperation of her and Fang Ming, they successfully shot down two strange birds from the sky.

This was the first time Xia Xiaochi had seen this kind of bird.

These mutant species have the ability to fly in the air, and their hunting difficulty is incomparable to those that crawl on the ground.

If Fang Ming had not used his ability to repeatedly retrieve the drones to the warehouse, it is estimated that the 18 drones that were released would never return.

When he arrived at the location where the reconnaissance plane was located, Xia Xiaochi saw the two shot-down strange birds on the ground.

The strange bird was pitch black all over, and its hard beak looked like a beetle's armor and was very thick.

Xia Xiaochi roughly measured it and found that the bird had a wingspan of three meters. The feathers under its chest were messy and sparse, and the hollow chest structure inside was exposed to the air.

Those pitch-black bird claws looked really creepy, and the sharp nails seemed like they could easily twist a person's head off.

At this time, the strange bird was lying crookedly on the ground, half of its head was blown off, and its wings were full of bullet holes from 9mm bullets.

Xia Xiaochi found three grams of energy crystals in the abdominal cavity of the slightly larger strange bird, and two grams in the slightly smaller one.

The profits from the strange bird were not as exaggerated as she and Fang Ming had imagined.

It seems that the strength of this species is only average among the nearby mutant species.

After Fang Ming learned the news, he decisively put them on the blacklist.

Unless drones can kill one enemy with one shot in the future, people will have to avoid these thankless creatures whenever they see them.

Harvest all the energy crystals.

Xia Xiaochi placed a total of 48 grams of energy crystals on the central controller.

Now the task of cleaning up the corpses is completed by the mother and daughter, while Xia Xiaochi follows Fang Ming's arrangements and goes to the small modular production workshop to make some simple furniture.

In the clean white ward.

Fang Ming lay at the head of the bed, looking at the 59 remaining energy points on the monitor.

Without hesitation, Fang Ming decisively clicked the upgrade button.

The equipment he upgraded this time was a turret.

The turret currently mounted on top of the Ark Shelter is still just a basic small turret that has not been upgraded.

Previously, Fang Ming only had 20mm ammunition, and he was afraid that the ammunition size would not be enough after upgrading the turret, so he never upgraded it.

Consume 9 energy points and the turret upgrade is complete.

[Advanced Self-Defense Turret: Ammunition Caliber: 30mm, Firing Rate: 400 rounds/minute (Snatch and Continuous) Effective Range: 2km]

"Range 2 kilometers..."

Fang Ming looked at the words.

He thought that this artillery position was beyond his absolute control range of one kilometer.

Within a kilometer, Fang Ming could see any movement.

In the area beyond one kilometer, Fang Ming is like a blind man.

If you want to use a turret to hit a target within the maximum range, you must cooperate with an unmanned reconnaissance aircraft.

But... having said that, a firing rate of 400 rounds per minute is equivalent to a Gatling gun.

This type of machine gun has such a terrifying ability to consume ammunition that it can drain Fang Ming's gunpowder stockpile in minutes.

This is so luxurious...

Continue to upgrade.

After hesitating for a moment, Fang Ming clicked the upgrade button again.

【Consumes 19 energy points.】

The game prompt interface pops up and the corresponding energy points are deducted instantly.

But this time, the upgraded turret was not shown in front of Fang Ming.

"Ok?"

Fang Ming was still waiting for the new interface to pop up. After waiting for a while and finding no response, he turned the camera to the machine gun on the top of the shelter.

The name of the machine gun was still "Advanced Self-Defense Battery", but under the name, Fang Ming saw two small arrows.

【caliber↑】

[Fire Rate↑]

Is this to allow him to choose the direction of upgrade?

Should we choose to widen the caliber and increase the power of single-shot ammunition, or increase the rate of fire to increase the tolerance rate?

Without a doubt, Fang Ming directly selected the caliber button.

【update successed! 】

[Reinforced Road-Based Turret: Abandoning the pursuit of lightweight firing rate, the caliber and power of the machine gun have been enhanced. Its function is no longer limited to "defense". The further enhanced turret will have considerable offensive capabilities.]

[Ammunition caliber: 76mm, firing rate: 85/minute, effective range: 20 kilometers.]

[Fully fiberglass stealth turret, nuclear, biological and chemical protection design. This turret can effectively strike at sea, air and land.]

Fang Ming's eyes quickly swept across the introduction column of the artillery.

Although the firing rate has indeed been significantly reduced, the power... the caliber of the ammunition alone has more than doubled.

And this effective range...

20 kilometers?!

You know, the distance from the Ark Shelter to the 2737 Shelter is only 10 kilometers.

If I fire this bullet, won't it directly hit my neighbor's forehead?

Fang Ming immediately went online to look for 76mm ammunition drawings, and first used a small modular production workshop to print out the shells.

While waiting for the ammunition to be made, Fang Ming turned on the machine gun above his head and took a look.

Fang Ming said that the excitement of getting this new machine gun was no less than when he was a child and just bought a cool toy gun.

I can't wait to fire two shots.

Opening the ammunition refill interface, Fang Ming clicked the switch button.

Conventional ammunition is converted into energy point recharge.

This time, the turret's reminder pop-up window changed.

It changed from 'the device's estimated energy conversion rate is less than 20%' to 'the conversion rate is less than 60%'.

The words 'Performance is too low, filling is not recommended' also disappeared.

In the judgment of this game, 60% should be a passing line.

Being able to achieve an energy point conversion rate of 60%... does this also mean that the power of this machine gun is barely enough in the doomsday world?

Close the interface.

Fang Ming suddenly remembered another thing...

Speaking of 'passing line'.

If Xia Xiaochi's health value reaches 60, does it mean that he has passed?

Thinking of this, Fang Ming quickly clicked on Xia Xiaochi's detailed interface and took a look.

[Health value: 41]

A few days passed, and Xia Xiaochi's health value only moved slightly.

A girl who looks so healthy, clean and beautiful...

Why is the health value only 41 points?
