Chapter 143: Mist (6,000 Words) (Part 4)
Yang Yuan waved his hand to put away the core, then said, "Deputy Leader Lingde, I happen to have something here that I'd like to ask your military for help with."
"Oh? What is it?"
Lingde, who was about to go make a big profit, hurriedly stopped and looked over in confusion.
Although he didn't think much of other superpower users without military ranks, he would still try to show the utmost respect for Yang Yuan, who could earn him a fortune.
"I want to customize an auxiliary scope for a crossbow. Do you have any experts in this area?" Yang Yuan asked.
That's right; he wanted to equip the crossbow with a scope, and if it had magnification, that would be best.
Otherwise, the range and power of the crossbow couldn't be fully utilized.
Right now, he could only use its terrifying kinetic energy as a trump card, but if he could also harness its range, that would be truly formidable.
"A magnifying scope for a crossbow? I'm not very familiar with that. How about this, Xiao Liu, take Mr. Yang Yuan to find Minister Wu."
Lingde casually pointed to someone.
"Yes, Mr. Yang Yuan, please follow me." The person hastily stepped forward.
"Hold on."
Yang Yuan curiously looked at Lingde: "Deputy Leader Lingde, what happened outside last night? Is it convenient to share?"
Lingde hesitated a bit, mainly worried that Yang Yuan would rush over there for business.
But thinking about how chaotic it was over there, he figured Yang Yuan wouldn't be that foolish, so he replied, "A brigade of troops suddenly appeared at the foot of the Mountain God Mountain in some unknown way, but we don't know the exact reason yet. I'm preparing to follow the leader's orders to try and make contact."
"I see, thank you for letting me know."
Yang Yuan nodded.
Seeing that Yang Yuan had no more questions, Lingde quickly left with two others behind him, both in the late human level.
They had already made initial contact with the people over there.
But due to last night's commotion, they decided to let the stronger ones attempt contact first. Whether to join forces or annex them depended on the situation.
After Lingde left, Yang Yuan told Zhao Jiayan and Jiang Yiyi to keep an eye on things at home, and he followed the soldier named Xiao Liu to the camp's factory.
Because he increasingly felt that this 38th unit was more like a warlord faction, Yang Yuan decided no longer to regard them as the soldiers he respected deeply in his heart, but just as regular soldiers.
In fact, after arriving in this world, even the military of the 13th unit had changed a lot.
If it weren't for the single-minded Director Jia holding things down, that side probably wouldn't be much better off than this place.
This camp wasn't small, after all, it was a place where over ten thousand people lived, and 90% of them were superpower users who didn't want to squeeze into a small space.
So, it took over twenty minutes for the two of them to reach the factory in the camp.
Of course, the term "factory" is just shorthand; what's really manufactured here is weapons, and all sorts of ammunition are produced here, otherwise, the continuous beast tides would be unsustainable.
It's located at the very center of the camp, like an inner city, and there's even a specially built city wall.
From this, it's evident that Yan Chenggong, despite appearing to be rough around the edges, is actually meticulous and probably lacks a strong sense of security internally.
Otherwise, he wouldn't have specially built a tall inner wall in this temporary camp.
