"Get out there and start sweeping the mutants!" Wu Manya ordered his men to get up and start working. The APV is parked not far from their targeted building, and the Twin-Rifle is manned to make sure support firing can be delivered at any time.
It's not only Wu Manya is fired up.
Except for Yu Yuan, who's tasked to protect the base, Yu Yang Kai, Wu Manya, Han Niu, and Niu Ke, are all posted outside of the base to start working.
What they need to do is clearing these ten or more buildings before erecting another layer of walls covering this entire street. The alleyway leading down southwest and northeast is left aside for now.
The station is focusing on printing all required components for the Fuel and Protein Converter. With close to 4 stations working nonstop, with the 5th going to be assembled soon, the workers are confident that it will be running before Monday.
As for Ammunition, there is nothing much for him to micro-manage. Bullets are being pushed out from the line by cases, more than what their own soldier can finish.
And since the time is no longer early for Zhang Qin Feng, he instructed everyone to quickly finish what they do regularly.
All available tech scraps are all deposited into the General Store's recycler. As for Zhang Qin Feng, he inspects the base until it's midnight, and returned to the modern world.
The Mother-Key lits up after the dimensional transfer is done.
[Multiple new options is available in Blueprint Section]
"Let's see what's new in there." Zhang Qin Feng sits on his regular spot and starts his device.

"Holy mother of god! Holy!" Zhang Qin Feng almost falls from his chair after he read each and every word on display.
The anticipation made him tapped on the Luna III, Lightning Bolt, and the Memento Mori Memory Gear. The regrets of needing to wait until Monday for his people to test the Rhinos Railgun Handheld-Unit made him somehow feel regret.
Worst of all, there is Neptune's Model Hailstorm too, he's not able to test them immediately!
If it's not because he has to spend Yue Qiang on Saturday morning, he might be inside the apocalypse right now!
After waiting for close to half an hour, Zhang Qin Feng came out from his General Store with his hand holding the Lightning Bolt. On his wrist is the next generation Luna III, which comes with a built-in listening system, a mapping system, and more. (which uses a pulse-method to allow the user to listen without wearing an earphone)
The Lightning Bolt is indeed an upgrade from the rifles he'd seen before in the apocalypse. Weight only about 1.1kilogram, the munition comes with two types of deployments.
It can be converted from close encounter to sniper mode from an adjustment of its front and back sections. As for ammo, it can be fitted with both Leishen or Ghostling's made.
Of course, while the design is made complicated by mixing two rifles into one, the munition also comes with similar features available from Leishen and the Ghostling. With some training, the soldiers should have no problem adjusting to this rifle.
Zhang Qin Feng tested both deployments of this Lightning Bolt. While in Close Encounter, bullets from both mags will be used without the need to adjust any button. As for sniper mode, an electronic scope will pop out from the rifle's body.
The scope comes with automatic adjustment crosshair, which allows the shooter to fire without steadying his adjustment. Accuracy wise, 7 out of 10 shots are capable of hitting the target during moving, with 9 out of 10 shots hit when motionless.
As for the Memento Mori Memory Headgear, Zhang Qin Feng inserted the Module Drive before he put it on.
He falls asleep quickly, but deep inside his consciousness, Zhang Qin Feng is learning the course of foundation, subterranean, high-rise construction skills.
The next morning, Zhang Qin Feng wakes up with the feeling of something just got slotted into his mind. Looking at the bed, chairs, and walls inside his General Store, Zhang Qin Feng got a rough idea about how it was made.
"Toot!" his Luna III rang. After the adjustment yesterday, Zhang Qin Feng completely changed from using both smartphone and Luna II and advanced into only using Luna III.
"Hello, Zhang Qin Feng speaking," he answered the call with a shake of his hand. No earphones or loudspeaker is required before all voices are transferred via pulse vibration. Through this system, perhaps even deaf patients may hear voices once more.
"Xiao Feng," a familiar voice came from the other side of his phone.
"Hello, big brother Qiang. It's been two weeks since we did not talk to each other. How you're doing?" Zhang Qin Feng's tone gets much more friendly since it was Yue Qiang who called him.
"Are you dropping by later? Will it be convenient for you to come to the Titanium Ore Mines?" Yue Qiang asked. Calling him over there would be a good thing because they're going to sell their first back of ores today.
As one of the three business partners, it is normal for him to join the Yue brothers for the opening ceremony.
"Of course! I'll meet you all over there. Around what time is the ceremony?" Zhang Qin Feng agreed on the request. Making his way over there is not inconvenient at all!
"Then, let's meet there at 12.30pm. The ceremony and trucks will leave at 1.08pm, a fortuituous time to departure," Yue Qiang replied.
"Sure. I'll see you there at half twelve," Zhang Qin Feng disconnected the call and made his preparations.
After putting on the suit chosen by Luo Qing for him, Zhang Qin Feng went outside with the car key, before he suddenly remembered something important.
"I've actually forgotten about the Seven-Star Ore Processor Line." Zhang Qin Feng chuckled. He returned to his General Store, tapped twice on the selection for the Ore Processor Line, and as a convenience, he took a pouch with ten ampoules of General Recovery Serum inside.
"Let's see..." Zhang Qin Feng checked his inventory to make sure he had everything with him.
"Gold, Luna III, Mother-Key, contract, tags, and that's all!" Zhang Qin Feng started his car after he's confirmed he brought everything he needs.
Just at 12.30pm, he stopped outside of the mine's entrance. After showing his name tag to the guards, Zhang Qin Feng is given access with a row of guards saluting him.
"That's our third boss, Zhang Qin Feng? He's so young!" one of the guards speaks after the car drove away.
"I wonder if he's married. My younger sister is quite a beauty," another guard added.
"Bah! Even if he's single, do you think your sister has the chance? Don't forget you just told me she's changed her fifteenth boyfriend!" the good friend of this guard slapped his bro's back.
"Shut up! Don't let other's know about that!" he covered his buddy's mouth to keep him from keeping blurting out nonsense.
Zhang Qin Feng greets the Yue brothers after he parked and directed to where they're waiting.
But the situation doesn't look as friendly as he thought.
Most of the gathered workers stand behind Yue Qiang and Yue Han, with two of the workers are injured and lying on the floor.
"Big Brother Qiang, big brother Han, what happened?" Zhang Qin Feng came over to their side and looked at their distressed expression.
"The Tang Family is causing trouble with us! They want us to stop mining for ores because it disturbed them from enjoying their holiday here!" Yue Han, the more impulsive between the brothers, answered.
"Han!" Yue Qiang warned him to speak less.
"Hahaha, so what?" the guy in a suit and protected by a group of bodyguards laughed.
Even Zhang Qin Feng, who's hardly bothered by people, is irritated by just looking at him.
"If you're unhappy, you can bring your complaint to Changzhou City's Eastern Council Department! Tell my dad, Tang Long, that I'm bullying you!"
"I dare you to challenge our Tang Family!" this young master, Tang Zhao Ming, said.
