The transformation of the base's electrical grid has basically been completed. Thanks to the power company's inventory, the base was able to generate its own electricity without relying on outside sources. The solar panels are sufficient but it never hurts to have more.
Luca also revealed the good news that there must be wind power generation equipment that has been on his mind. After all, both Atlanta and Georgia are great places, so it's important to consider that.
It's just that some equipment is available, but most of it must be disassembled on site and then transported back to base for installation. This is not very urgent. The most important thing is to first build the actual power system they are working on.
Then Airon began to walk around the territory again, and now his wound has not yet healed, his upper body is covered with a layer of gauze, even if he wants to help with the work, he can not do it as his bruises are painful.
But that didn't stop him from walking and talking, and everyone knew that the captain was injured and no one would ask him to help with the work.
So he became a slacker on the base, looking around all day, making comments and so on.
In recent days, Amy has also given up going out on missions, and will appear at his side from time to time, bringing him some water and food.
From the time she came into this world to the present, this period of time is her quietest state. The last time he was injured was in Texas. Although Alicia took care of him at that time, he still could not relax all day.
He slowly arrived at the open space in the north of the base, where it is also under construction. Several huge things like pools have started to take shape.
This is the biogas digester I've been telling you about before. It is located outside the third wall of the base. The reason for choosing this side is that it is close to the kitchen and can conveniently provide fuel. The second is that there are generally few people on the north side of the city wall so the digesters also had no negative effect.
As for the biogas digester energy, it is naturally the carcass of the living dead, plus some miscellaneous stuff. To facilitate walker cleanup, the base has set aside a very remote location where workers with equipment covering their entire body work, attract walkers and clean up areas and then reuse them instead of burning or burying them.
Most of them were transported to the base for composting and some were dumped into the biogas digesters.
Of course, the best part of all this is that while you have the task of gathering walkers to generate electricity, the discarded walkers from that job will eventually be converted to electricity when their body begins to fully decompose.
These methods have been employed in Atlanta and Georgia with stored smart walkers. In this way, they will have a strong electrical backup.
As he walked to the side of the digester, he noticed that Rick and Abraham were all here, the two didn't notice his arrival at first, and they were all stirring the cement there with all their might, their clothes already wet with sweat.
"Just look who's here."
"Hello, Airon!
"Commander!
Panting heavily, Rick took off his gloves and walked towards the shadow with his hands on his hips. At that moment, Amy happened to approach with a small bucket watter.
Everyone was sweating from the heat and extended their hands toward the bucket.
Amy, after giving them all the cool water, walked to Airon's side, poured a glass of water and handed it to him.
"Thank you!"
"You're welcome, you were injured to save us, and it's right to take care of you."
During this period of time, Amy's performance was very obvious, but he couldn't say anything. After all, she also knew that he had a girlfriend, and the reason for approaching him was that he saved her. This made him unable to refuse, otherwise it would be too awkward.
Watching Amy walk away, the others flashed impish smiles and Airon shook his head helplessly.
Rick drank a glass of water and felt much better, looking at Amy who had left, he could sense the other party's meaning, but it wasn't that simple.
Seeing the expression on the face of this usually decisive commander, people decidedly chose to keep quiet, and Rick did not speak on this subject.
The two sat under the wall and looked inside. It was still hot, but many people were working on the crops. Besides, they knew that in a little while the weather would get cooler. Sitting in the shadows, they could already feel the cool wind blowing over their bodies along the base. While the trace of sweat on their bodies also dissipated.
"It's going to get cold real soon."
Looking around at the busy crowd, Airon also smiled.
"Yes, we will soon consider the issue of heating in winter."
"The materials accumulated in our base are more than enough and we need not worry about food, we also have greenhouses to take care of the crops."
Having said that, Airon couldn't help but feel the need to complain, "I wrote you so many things when I left, but you fortified the wall and then piled all the supplies in the warehouse. I haven't had time to find Guillermo to see what we have."
Rick is also very helpless, not that he doesn't want to build the infrastructure first, but their professional knowledge is limited and all they can think about is strengthening and fortifying the base.
Even if they were asked to do something, these people did not have the skills, so they could only wait obediently for Airon to return.
"You know, I never thanked you properly."
"There's nothing to be thankful for."
"No, if it were me, I definitely wouldn't be able to lead everyone to build such an excellent shelter as the one we live in now. Not only me, but everyone who lives here should thank you."
"Okay, let's talk about some practical problems. We will expand the dormitory outside starting tomorrow. We must do these things before the weather cools down completely. The old heating system also needs to be remodeled. You have to rebuild the plumbing and time is really limited right now."
"Airon, if you need someone to lead a team to collect something, you can take me into consideration."
At some point, Abraham put down the shovel and walked over, looking very interested in getting out.
Airon motioned for him to sit down and was very clear about the strong man's thoughts. Ever since his trip to Washington failed, he has been obsessed with going out on missions and has always wanted to find time to talk to this strong man. Seeing him now is a good time to take the initiative to join.
"Abraham, can we sit down and talk?"
"What is it, Airon?"
"What do you think of our organization?"
"Not bad, people can have enough food and clothing, you have created hope."
"Do you enjoy being here?"
Abraham was unusually silent, he really didn't know how to answer this question.
Airon knew what happened to him, but he couldn't tell him directly, so he could only enlighten him in another way, hoping that the other party would listen.
In fact, the best way is for him to find a wife. Abraham in the original drama has his own target, Sasha.
But now that Sasha and Bob are united, it is really hard to say whether Abraham has Rosita in his heart.
What should he do?
At this moment, Rick's voice came to his side.
"You've lost a loved one, don't deny it, I can feel it."
Contra gave a long sigh and replied helplessly.
Airon suddenly patted the other person on the shoulder, and the clear voice was heard in the distance, and then he looked at this big man and whispered, "Listen, you will discover that girl who is willing to give everything for each other, and you will do everything to survive, but before this happens, give yourself one more chance! Do you understand?"
Although Airon saw only coldness in her gaze, Abraham understood that these words were for his own good, and a warm feeling arose in his body. He patted the other person's shoulder as well, with a slightly relieved smile on his face.
"Yes, we have to repopulate humanity hahahaha!"
