Chapter 793: Chapter 643, Island Lord Wu Heng Sent a Gift Chapter 793: Chapter 643, Island Lord Wu Heng Sent a Gift Zombie World, meeting room.

Wu Heng sat on one side, opposite him was Gao Rong holding a pen and paper.

Wu Heng handed over the last Mechanist scroll to him, saying, “I'm going back today, you're still in charge here.”

Gao Rong's attitude was serious, “Leader, rest assured, I will arrange the work here properly.”

Wu Heng was quite satisfied with Gao Rong's attitude.

He then said, “I have a few tasks for you to carry out.”

“Please tell me,” Gao Rong picked up his pen, ready to take notes.

“Have Tiancheng Group continue the research and development of the remaining weapons production; machine cannons, machine cannon ammunition, and machine guns should be prioritized for research and development.”

Gao Rong nodded and recorded it on paper.

Wu Heng continued, “Those research institutes in Russia, remember they were developing things related to electricity? Have them continue their research in this area, focusing on the power systems for vehicles–cars, ships, and even airplanes. In the future, we need electricity to replace fuel.”

“Tell them that if there is a technological breakthrough, we will provide them with Professional Scrolls. They might not understand this, just say it will help them enhance their physical fitness, like the effects of a Corpse Core.”

Gao Rong raised an eyebrow slightly and continued to write down this sentence as well.

Wu Heng's direction was very clear; one was the mass production of weapons, and the second was to break away from the reliance on fuel.

Now, the base's power plant can convert electricity without fuel. This technology is difficult to understand but also signifies that there is no shortage of electricity within the base.

As long as fuel is replaced, various equipment and vehicles can be used freely.

Reducing the troublesome task of collecting fuel.

“I've noted it down. Is there any other arrangement?” Gao Rong continued to ask.

Wu Heng pondered for a moment and then added, “Tell Li Yahong to arrange for some propaganda, externally publicizing the base to attract more talents to join, and internally to increase propaganda for the leader and deputy leader to also strengthen the group's cohesion.”

When he talked about cohesion, what Wu Heng thought of was raising his own prestige among the survivors.

Although the number of people in each base was not large, any increase in numbers was valuable.

Little by little, it would add up to some extent.

Gao Rong thought for a moment and said, “It's not good to say this over the radio. I'll arrange for someone to go to Xinfu City later and pass on the message.”

Wu Heng thought about it again and felt that there were no omissions, “The rest is up to you. Whatever components are needed, arrange for their production. Strengthen our capabilities as soon as possible. Maintain the trade with the headquarters and especially tell them about the matter of training pilots.”

“Understood.”

“Let's leave it at that, then. Let's go out.”

Wu Heng stood up and left the meeting room together with Gao Rong.

They went downstairs together.

Passing by a room, Wu Heng knocked on the door lightly, “Zhao Yanqiu, are you ready?”

“I'm ready,” a voice came out from inside the room.

Following that, the door opened, and Zhao Yanqiu came out dragging a large suitcase.

After discussing with Xiao Xiao in the morning, he had decided to take Zhao Yanqiu with them.

One reason was that the mother and daughter had been apart for a long time and missed each other, and the second was to pay attention to Zhao Yanqiu's profession advancement.

To hopefully find the key to lifting Xiao Xiao's “Unfinished Wish.”

Different from Glenda.

Glenda knew exactly what her last wish was, but Xiao Xiao's goal was very vague.

It might be possible to find a method by keeping her mother close.

“Leader, Manager Gao,” Zhao Yanqiu immediately greeted them.

Wu Heng grabbed her luggage and promptly stored it in the Space Ring.

Then he said, “Let's go, the car is waiting outside.”

The three of them walked to the door together.

Wu Heng and Zhao Yanqiu boarded the truck.

After bidding farewell to Gao Rong, the truck departed for the train station, heading to Seaside City.

Three days later, at noon.

Wu Heng, along with Zhao Yanqiu and the skeleton attendant, arrived at Shanfu Port.

It must have rained last night, as puddles could still be seen around the port.

But it also made the entire area look cleaner.

He quickly introduced Zhao Yanqiu to the place and proceeded to the large hotel at the center of the base.

Upon entering the hotel, he arranged a room for Zhao Yanqiu.

He waited briefly in the conference room before Qi Hancai opened the door and came in.

“Back already!” Qi Hancai said with a smile.

“Yeah, nothing's up here, right?” Wu Heng inquired.

Qi Hancai replied, “No issues. The Skeleton Army is still expanding outwards. Supply trucks shuttle back and forth every day, transporting scavenged goods and survivors here. The base's population is nearing a hundred now.”

“Good, the base is most secure in your hands,” Wu Heng said.

Qi Hancai laughed, “Not really, I haven't done much.”

Wu Heng continued, “It's good that the base is fine. By the way, what have those two from the Korean Navy been up to recently?”

“Their daily task is to teach the skeletons how to sail, as well as some knowledge on ship repair and maintenance,” Qi Hancai answered.

“Have them come over.”

“Sure.” Qi Hancai picked up the walkie-talkie and instructed someone to go to the harbor and call them.

The two chatted in the room for a while.

The door was knocked, and two members of the Korean Navy walked straight in.

Upon seeing Wu Heng seated in the room, they both shuddered and immediately bowed their heads.

Wu Heng went straight to the point, “I've reassigned the escort ship to another harbor, but why can't the anti-air missiles lock onto the target?”

Although the Storm Pirate Group was easily killed, Philippa still sent back some information.

Among it was the fact that the anti-air missiles couldn't attack the harpies.

In the end, it was the skeletons that turned the aerial units into sieves with rifles.

Even though the outcome was the same, Wu Heng still felt it was a pity that such weapons couldn't be used.

Addressing this matter was his first order of business upon his arrival today.

The two men glanced at each other, and one cautiously asked, “Leader, what target are you referring to?”

“You could think of it as a type of mutated flying beast,” Wu Heng said.

After a moment of thought, they replied, “Leader, it might be a matter of frequency bands. You could think of it as electromagnetic waves being adjusted. To avoid interference from crow flocks affecting the missiles, they won't lock onto these targets.”

“Do you know how to adjust it so it will lock onto these targets?” Wu Heng asked.

The one who answered shook his head, “I don't know how.”

After speaking, he looked towards the other man.

The other also shook his head, “I don't know either. The equipment on the ship is all preset, and we aren't able to adjust it.”

Wu Heng thought for a moment and then asked, “Are there other devices that can quickly capture such flying targets?”

“Yes, we can install a close-in weapon system, a seven-barreled Gatling gun that fires 4200 rounds per minute. Whether it's airplanes, missiles, or the mutated flying beasts you mentioned, it can shred them to pieces once activated, especially the beasts since they definitely don't fly as fast as missiles,” they promptly said.

Wu Heng had seen close-in weapons systems on military channels on TV.

They had a high rate of fire and could intercept incoming missiles, mainly used for defense.

Wu Heng had a few machine guns at his disposal too, but they were for handheld use, for taking down pirate ships and the like.

This one seemed likely to be more powerful.

“Is there one at this harbor?” Wu Heng inquired.

“No, but there's a military harbor where you can swap out shipborne weapons.”

Wu Heng raised an eyebrow, pleasantly surprised by this unplanned bonus.

“Are there escort ships there too?”

“Normally, yes, but I don't know if any are docked currently,” they responded.

Wu Heng turned to Qi Hancai, “Give them the map, and mark the spot.”

Wu Heng handed over the map to them.

The two examined it carefully and then marked a location on it.

…

At the association headquarters.

The long corridor was empty, dark, and deep. Huge pillars supported the dome while dimly glowing Illuminating Stones hung on either side of the walls, providing a soft light.

The middle-aged man in a black suit with a stern face walked steadily to the door.

He knocked gently on the door.

Then, the door slowly opened to reveal the luxuriously furnished room.

A red carpet covered the floor, and black velvet curtains dropped to the floor, blocking the sunlight from outside.

In the center of the room was a black coffin with the lid tightly closed.

The middle-aged man bowed slightly toward the coffin and said softly, “Miss, Gold and Silver Island has sent the latest edition of the newspaper, the Great Detective story has been updated, and additionally, Island Lord Wu Heng has sent you a special gift.”
