Volume 4: National Craftsmanship Chapter 104 Launch Failure
"missile?"
Zhang Qiang suspected that he had heard it wrong. The moment the zombie virus was transmitted, thermal weapons could not be used. Isn't this... common sense?
"Yes, it's a missile that can bomb the ground, preferably a missile silo that can directly hit a designated location!"
Zhang Qiang hesitated for a moment. "Yes, there is, but... we have tested it and it is impossible to launch it. What do you want to do with it?"
"Let me try..."
"You...?" Zhang Qiang looked at him suspiciously.
30 minutes later, Zhang Qiang, the secretary, and four bodyguards brought Shen Jin and Shang Qian to the control tower of the missile silo. It was covered with dust and it seemed that no one had been there for some time, but the equipment was well preserved and there were not many zombies around. Although it was not in the current base in S City, the zombies around it had been cleared before, and the group did not encounter many obstacles.
The two guards led by Zhang Qiang skillfully activated the instruments. Inside the control tower, lights lit up one by one, and a large screen also lit up. On the operating table, with the flexible operation of the two guards, green lights lit up one by one, indicating that the tower was operating well. "Squeak, squeak--"
A light with a "lightning" symbol on the console turned red and flashed. The guard said, "Sir, the control tower is low on power and needs backup power!"
"Then start the backup power supply!"
Another guard said in embarrassment: "But... two large diesel/gasoline generators have been moved to our base!"
"What's going on! How can the backup power supply be taken away? This is our S City's strategy..."
"You gave the order," the guard said hurriedly .
Zhang Qiang: “Emmm…”
He pondered for a moment, then said to Shen Jin apologetically: "I'm so sorry, the power supply is insufficient, it seems that we can't launch..."
Shen Jin's hand dug into his backpack for a moment, "Pah!"
A white metal box was thrown on the ground, and Zhang Qiang's pupils shrank slightly: "Space power?"
"No, it's just an application of technological powers." Shen Jin has now convinced himself that he is a person with technological powers.
Don’t ask, the answer is the power of technology. Energy science has come out, so how far can technological cultivation be?
Zhang Qiang nodded: "Superpowers... It's amazing. The people with Gene Lock can only kill and fight. If they want to create miracles, it depends on you superpowers... But what is this thing? A... white box?"
“Bang!”
Shen Jin took out a large coil of insulated copper wire and threw it on top . "This thing is called the [MFE Power Storage Box]. You can connect the power cord into it to supply power. The charging speed... is super fast!"
"How much electricity can this store? The entire control tower is very complicated to operate, and it requires a lot of electricity. Even if it's burning diesel, it would take two super-powerful engines to burn together to supply the power..."
Zhang Qiang remained skeptical. Isn’t this just a big battery?
After a moment
"Please don't discuss science with a techno-geek!"
Shen Jin is just a jerk who uses the system. He knows nothing about science!
"Can we launch now?"
The strategic map already showed the surrounding terrain and red and green dots, as well as countless complex data and an aiming point. Shen Jin couldn't understand the data, but he could guess that the crosshairs were the location to be hit. The guard operated it for a while and said, "It's OK, but... we can choose a place to aim, but... the missile can't be launched!"
"Yes, we tried... many times." Zhang Qiang had tried to launch through the operating system again and again, and had pressed the backup launch button many times, but... the missile in the silo did not respond. It was well preserved inside, and there was no problem with the system, but it just didn't move!
It was as if some force was suppressing the reaction inside the missile 24 hours a day, preventing it from launching or exploding.
"Then this time... let me try!"
Shen Jin walked over and with the help of his personal guards, locked onto the 500,000 zombies that were moving on the black light film. Zhang Qiang saw that Shen Jin wanted to test it and did not stop him. He used his face and fingerprint scan to unlock the launch permission, although... he already knew what the result would be.
"Please select the missile model!"
"You have also seen this black energy membrane. If we want to blow it up and destroy these 500,000 zombies at the same time, what kind of missile do we need?"
Zhang Qiang analyzed it in his mind for a moment, "P-12 surface-to-surface tactical missile, 5 tons of ammunition, 300 kilometers of range, effective killing radius of 7 kilometers, enough!"
"That's it!"
Shen Jin didn’t understand anything else, but the half-pound of casualties within 7 kilometers was enough to cover the entire tide of zombies!
"System, since I can use thermal weapons, then... I should also be able to launch missiles!"
Shen Jin came this time to use human thermal weapons to eliminate these zombies. He had not planned to take this step, but... after the zombies passed this village, there would be no better opportunity to gather. They would rush all the way to S City. At that time, it would be too late to use missiles. Shen Jin did not dare to bet that the zombie tide would definitely remove the black protective shield. The guards made some operations, locked the crosshairs on the zombie tide, and moved slowly with it, and then made room. Shen Jin took a deep breath and pressed his hand on the big button, "Fire!"
At this moment, Zhang Qiang showed a hint of expectation. Although he didn't believe that anyone could launch it, but... what if there was a miracle?
Shang Qian looked very confident, she believed that Shen Jin would succeed!
The two guards had complicated expressions. They used to work on this transmission tower and were familiar with every button and every part here. They had deep feelings for it, so they hoped that this tower could regain its vitality. They secretly encouraged Shen Jin in their hearts. After a moment...
Shen Jin still maintained the pressing posture, but nothing happened.
Shen Jin: “…”
Shang Qian: “…”
Zhang Qiang: “…”
"Eh? Is it because I haven't pressed it for a while, so the contact is bad? Let me try again?"
Shen Jin pressed the "fire" button several more times.
Operator: “…”
Damn, bad contact! This is a missile launch tower. The materials used are world-class. There will be no problems for hundreds of years!
After 10 minutes, after trying multiple postures and angles, Shen Jin finally accepted the fact that he could not launch the missile.
"this……"
Why can the MK18 submachine gun, Desert Eagle, pistol and anti-material sniper rifle be used, but the missile cannot be launched?
Could it be that... the principles are different?
What is the difference between personal operation and system operation?
You can't let me carry the missile and run over to detonate it myself!
Shen Jin was puzzled.
Zhang Qiang came over and patted him on the shoulder: "No problem, let's go... By the way, this power storage box is great, can you give us one?"
Shen Jin put away the [MFE Power Storage Box] with some disinterest: "Wait until you survive this zombie tide. Goodbye, we're going back!"
"Take care! I thank you on behalf of all the survivors in S City!"
Shen Jin waved his hand: "No need, we are all Chinese, but let me be frank. We are facing a difficult problem now. If we really can't eliminate the zombies... I won't let my brothers fight hard. You... make plans early!"
The two men left.
Shen Jin needs to go to the front line and continue to keep an eye on the tide of zombies until they remove the black shield.
It's getting dark...
The zombies have already pushed up to the city wall. Walking forward, Shen Jin looked at the zombies shrouded in black fog and the black shield that was always held up. He felt powerless. His system ability was actually powerless against the zombies' energy shield...
“Bang!”
The tide of zombies suddenly stopped as they were moving. The sky had become completely dark, and the zombies were about to go into hibernation.
Shen Jin and the others stared at the zombies with sharp eyes. After dark, the zombies had no solar energy and needed to rest. Then their energy shields...
