Be the savior from Frostpunk

Chapter 7 Rewards, Simple Empire Building Template
"Sir, are you confused by burns? The Winter House is farther north. With the lighthouse and sleds, it will take two days to get there."

As an engineer, Andrew is quite straightforward, and he doesn't have a God's perspective, so he didn't even think of the problem with the energy tower here. Why would the mayor think of the Winter House.Only Bernard raised his head slightly when he heard about Winter House.

Li Jianghao dare not tell others that the Winter House may have been blown up now. The empire built countless energy tower camps before the end of the world to preserve the fire of civilization.The Winter House is the largest among them, and is responsible for linking many energy tower camps on the vast snowfield.In the game itself, the Fall of Winter House is also the last script, which is quite difficult.

Compared with the new home, which started from scratch, the energy tower of the Winter House has already had a problem. The new mayor needs to maintain the living environment while taking care of the emotions of the citizens, collecting resources and leading the citizens to evacuate on the dreadnought battleship.The scene of chicken feathers all over the place is the beginning of hell, and the tragedy of Winter House stems from the loss of a batch of materials during the construction of the energy tower, which led to defects after completion.As for where those lost supplies went, that's another story.

On the timeline of the new home, the fall of Winter House is already doomed.At least the mayor there certainly didn't evacuate all the residents with the Dreadnought, and it might even have ended in tragedy.Otherwise, after the exploration team discovered Winter House, there would be a survivor who came from Winter House on the No. 14 day of the game, announcing the fall of Winter House, and triggering the subsequent plot of the London Gang in the new home.

"You go to rest, Andrew, according to my order, tomorrow, except for the children, all people must participate in resource work. I allow you not to use the emergency shift. At least for now, our nearby resources are sufficient. Tomorrow is early at five o'clock After get off work, I have something to announce."

Li Jianghao instructed that now he has to think about how to repair the energy tower and talk to the old guy Bernard.He has first-hand data on the construction of the energy tower in his mind, maybe things will turn around.There is no game value limit here, and the difficulty is not that great in the first few days of the game. It is not a bad thing to maintain people's hope properly.

Li Jianghao did not expect that not long after his order was given, there was a burst of cheers from the crowd outside, and a system prompt sounded in his mind:

"Keep the hope value full for five hours, the urgent task of protecting the energy tower is completed, please choose a reward (choose one of the two)"

"Reward 4: A simple version of the Timbersaw Type [-] for empire development. From the Warhammer world, a lost war group discovered a complete machine on a wild planet and used it to carve a bloody path through the greenskins. If it is used for cutting Use something green, whether it's a tree or an orc."

"Reward [-]: Empire Standard Building Template (Super Simplified Version). From the Warhammer World, after many civilizations have left the light of the Empire, their technology cannot support the original civilization. Even the lowest standard needs to be continuously simplified before it can be used. But those sad people think that this is the acme of science, which is too sad."

Li Jianghao doesn't know much about the world of Warhammer. He can't be called a hammer man, but he barely knows that this huge world is dangerous, and it is divided into two story series: medieval fantasy and 40K science fiction.He can only judge whether the reward is good or bad by the item description.

The Age of Ice and Steam itself contains logging technology. With the ice wall drill and robots, wood is not a problem at all, so he chose the second reward without much thought, this so-called super simple version of the imperial standard building template.The sealed holy sword given by the system can be a savior in times of crisis. This simplified version of the building template must be stronger than the original building technology tree of the Ice Steam Age.

Li Jianghao has no significant understanding of the technology gap between the Warhammer world and the Frostpunk world, but instinctively feels that this set of building templates is very suitable for improving some deficiencies in the technology tree here, so as to avoid the sudden increase of people's dissatisfaction when the temperature cools down.
After receiving the reward by default in his mind, Li Jianghao looked at the embers and typewriter on the table.There is basically no difference between the embers and the game, except that those red lines don't have any temperature, and they don't look like flames at all.As for the typewriter, whenever Li Jianghao looked at the typewriter, there would always be an unlocked word in his mind.

This is also understandable. After all, if you directly save the game at the beginning, you can find a way to clear the game no matter how difficult it is.It is reasonable that the system does not have the function of opening typewriters for the time being.

The only thing he can use now is this holy sword for cutting people.But now there is nothing for him to cut. Frostpunk is essentially a business game, expecting the mayor to come to fight and go to camps in other cities to plunder resources. Thinking about it, Li Jianghao feels a headache.

Other cities are poor and white, and there is no development potential here.After going there, it is hard to say who robbed anyone.In order to meet the 700-population clearance requirement, I might be soft-hearted and take back a large number of sick people, causing the operation to collapse, so there is nothing to play.

After Bernard saw the engineers leave, Li Jianghao was not in a hurry to ask questions, but was in a daze. He kept his mouth shut about what he had prepared for Li Jianghao's interrogation, but he couldn't say it for a while.

"You are waiting for me to laugh at you, or give you a death sentence, or mock the people who built this camp before because of corruption, resulting in insufficient coal reserves, and instead saved my life, right?" Li Jianghao didn't have time to think too much, He didn't even think about how to open the reward he just received. He turned around and looked at Bernard. He had something to say.

Bernard was a little embarrassed, but fortunately, the quality of an office officer made him hide his emotions and anger. He corrected his voice and said in standard imperial language: "I will never beg for the mayor's pardon, I am just very happy, you guys I just narrowly escaped death once, if I am hanged, you will all freeze to death because of this flawed energy tower soon, and come to hell to accompany me. In this case, why should I think so much?"

Li Jianghao said: "I will temporarily pardon you, but not because of pity, but because I want you to see with your own eyes how I let my citizens live to the end. When the final moment comes, I will execute you for your sins .”

Li Jianghao thought he was not a Bodhisattva. This old guy almost killed everyone, and he must be executed after the task was completed.Even if the old guy repented during this process and sincerely repented, he must use his death to atone for his sin.

When Bernard heard this, he seemed to have heard some big joke, his expressions were tangled together strangely, the folds on his face were crowded together very ugly, he laughed and said:
"Hahahahaha! Do you believe what you said? You just mentioned Winter House, right? I know how flawed the energy tower is there. It seems that you, as the mayor, also know some inside information. Did you just slip up? If your citizens know that Winter House has suffered misfortune, what reason do they have to think they can survive!"
