Heavy Truck Chariot In The End Times

Chapter 12 The World After the Rain

“At 15:00 on July 11, 2022, the stagnant water caused by the rainstorm has completely subsided, leaving only a wet layer. I decided to go out and straighten the Vajra.” Take out the laptop from the sealed bag and click on it. “Doomsday Log” document, record this text, Shen Cong shut down the computer again, and then put it back.

How other people survive in the last days, he doesn’t know, he just lives here and lives in his own way.

It is his obsessive-compulsive hobby to record what he experiences every day, the progress of each research, and the events that occur every time.

Now the Vajra is on the ground and needs to be straightened so that the tires touch the ground.

Before going out, of course you have to take safety precautions.

The unknown monster that can bite the steel bar underground, the suspected prehistoric crocodile who used the Vajra as a toy, the storms that came just now, and the water a few meters deep, all show that the world after the end, the food chain has been turned upside down, humans No more creatures at the top of the food chain.

It took half an hour to re-alloy and re-alloy the active armor of Optimus Prime 1.0, which had degenerated into ordinary iron armor.

It took another half an hour to alloy the 6.4 pistols and a metal hand crossbow, filling them with plenty of activity.

Armed protection work is considered complete.

Reactivity is a good thing. Vajra can be quickly alloyed for all metal materials. Non-metallic materials can also be alloyed, but the progress is relatively slow. The remaining 15% of the inactive parts of the Vajra before the heavy rain are all non-metallic components that are difficult to gnaw.

This high imitation 6.4 pistol is made of metal. When the Optimus Prime 1.0 active armor was built last time, Shen Cong easily manipulated the Vajra to alloy.

The power of the activated pistol is still unknown to Shen Cong, and he has not fired a single shot so far.

Shen Cong also has three high-pressure air guns, all imitation submachine guns and rifles, but they are made of plastic shells, alloys are more troublesome, and their power may not be as powerful as a pistol.

Putting on a live armor, holding a live pistol, a telescope on his chest, a fangs dagger in his waist, and a live crossbow behind his back, Shen Cong, fully armed, turned out the Vajra while holding a jack.

Shen Cong first carefully inspected the surrounding environment.

In fact, when it comes to patrols, Shen Cong should have a high-tech equipment dedicated to electronic eyes-the 8th generation UAV of DJI Elf.

He thought that DJI 8 could shine in the last days and become his own electronic eye.

In fact, the opposite is true. In the current environment of high radiation concentration, high-altitude line-of-sight communication is almost completely abolished. The trans-horizon transmission of DJI 8 fails because GPS and BDS cannot search for satellites; the transmission within the line-of-sight uses a 5.8G module. The original visual distance is 10km standard, but now this line-of-sight transmission, I don’t know if it is. The signal band is contaminated, only 15m away.

A 15-meter-high camera observation is not as good as he can see far with a telescope.

So after playing DJI 8 before, Shen Cong regretfully put it away. After he studies the radio someday and completes the upgrade and transformation of the communication system, he will see if there is a chance to make DJI 8 a real electronic eye.

Now, manpower patrols.

The world where the stagnant water recedes looks very unique.

The ground paved with yellow sand and gravel was washed away by heavy rain like a flood, and most of the sand and stones were taken away. Therefore, on the ground, there are dry water channels, and the banks of the water channels are big rocks that cannot be washed away. Some of these big rocks can be identified carefully, and some traces of building materials can be found, obviously the ruins of high-rise buildings have been rolled over.

Although the terrain has become fragmented and potholes, the reduction of yellow sand and gravel has also greatly reduced the threat from underground.

Shen Cong didn’t think that the monster that sneaked from the yellow sand could drill holes in the rocks.

Of course, the road has become difficult to walk.

“The Vajra is equipped with bulldozers, and stones that encounter obstacles can be pushed away.”

Confirming that there is no danger, Shen Cong got into the Vajra carriage again and pulled out three huge iron clamps. These were hunting tools that he took time out to weld. Since he encountered the big fangs that day, he has started to build hunting clamps. Limited to the lack of steel, plus one at the Carrefour supermarket, only four were made.

The hunting clip was thrown around the Vajra and served as the first line of defense.

Only then did Shen Cong lower his vigilance slightly, using the jack to raise the Vajra little by little.

This is a very troublesome process.

Shen Cong only had one jack. He had to lift the Vajra up a little bit, then moved a large stone from the side to cushion it under the carriage, and then slowly moved the jack to raise it up with the stone. Every time you raise a little bit, you have to choose a bigger stone and toss it back and forth.

Sora has a power of a cow and a half, but facing the 30-ton Vajra, he still looks too weak.

During this period, I had to patrol the surrounding area from time to time, and use the telescope to detect the movement in the distance and investigate the danger, so it took a lot of time. Work began at 3:30, and at 6:30, the sun set in the west, and the Vajra was finally centered to a 45-degree angle, and the center of gravity began to shift.

At this time, Shen Cong suddenly pushed hard.

Boom!

The Vajra turned over and the 22 tires landed smoothly.

Looking at the Vajra at this time, it can be seen that the connection between the front of the car and the car has been distorted by a very large angle, and the load-bearing rods of some of the chassis have cracks. The outer steel armor is covered with dense scratches, abrasions, and tooth marks.

The steel plate armor was originally filled with steel thorns, but now the steel thorns are bent in pieces.

The headlights on the front of the car had all shattered.

This is the result of the monster that is suspected of being a prehistoric giant crocodile, destroyed in the water. This is only the surface, the internal damage is more serious, not to mention how many electronic components are damaged in the water, just the damage to the materials in the car is a major loss.

He kept important materials in sealed bags, but several delicate electronic devices were still scrapped during the impact of the Vajra.

“Change the tire again and go in.”

Shen Cong glanced at the sky, straightened the Vajra, and immediately began to change the tires. A tire near the rear of the carriage was bitten by a monster. The tires are special tires with a diameter of 1.5 meters. In order to install this type of tires, the chassis of the carriage trailer is specially modified, and the distance between the axles is much larger.

At the beginning of building the Vajra, Shen Cong preferred hanging trailers, which are two-section containers.

One is that the cargo capacity is relatively large, and the other is that the gecko can dock the tail and discard the next container if necessary. However, considering the power load issue, a separate container was finally chosen.

Twenty minutes later, Shen Cong, who got all the engine oil, successfully changed the tires.

He hung the punctured tire on the chassis again. After taking the time, he could slowly repair it with activity. He only had such a spare tire.

After recovering the hunting traps, and taking a last look at the red sun that was about to fall into the horizon and the bright red sunset glowing all over the sky, Shen Cong returned to the Vajra. He had not slept for two days and one night.

Have a good rest tonight.

Starting from tomorrow, we will try our best to guide the activity and repair the Vajra.
