People Found Out About The Base I Built On the Moon - Chapter 302

Chapter 302: Munitions Factory (2)

Translator: Dragon Boat Translation Editor: Dragon Boat Translation

Zhao Yu felt something was amiss. “Wait a minute, how many of them? Did they have weapons?!”

“Five people. They had weapons so we stopped them from a distance.”

Zhao Yu stroked his chin, sensing an issue.

If these people were seeking help, why would they head east?

There are only two parties here, his own group and the neighboring shelter. Who would run here for help?

Moreover, he only recently managed to gather 20 soldiers, and all of whom were unarmed.

Zhao Yu suspected that these people might not have come with bad intention.

If their Liu Jia Village was in danger, they should have been here to seek refuge or to continue fleeing like Meng House Village. Why would they ask us to save Liu Jia Village?!

Since there is no significant force here, yet they ran in this direction. There have too many suspicions.

Though unable to make sense of it, Zhao Yu walked over to the power station, contemplating whether to construct an Munitions Factory or a Tank Factory.

“The Munitions Factory produces weapons, while the Tank Factory produces tanks…”

“Tanks… or perhaps cars?”

Only conscripted soldiers could be produced in the training camp and he needed ten of them to unlock the next level of land infantry, Zhao Yu doubted that even if he established a tank factory, he wouldn’t be able to produce tanks right away.

“As for weapons…”

Zhao Yu sent someone to take inventory of the weapons. With 20 soldiers, each had a pistol and a rifle. However, they were running low on bullets, with only a little over three hundred left in total, averaging a little over ten per person.

“A gun without bullets is just an iron stick…”

“Let’s take it one step at a time, and set up the munitions factory first!”

After some contemplation, Zhao Yu decided to start establishing the weapons first.

[Do you want to spend 100 Technology Points to exchange for the Munitions Factory?]

“Yes!”

Swipe!

Another building sprouted from the ground, located right next to the energy station.

Zhao Yu had wanted to position it according to his own ideas, but the system indicated that it could only be installed near the energy station.

Currently, both his base and the energy station were set up against the walls. Once the munitions factory was established, there would be no place to position the next tank factory unless another energy station was built.

“I wonder if we can change locations…”

Zhao Yu wasn’t in a hurry to enter the factory. After understanding the situation, he breathed a sigh of relief.

The base could be packed up and transformed into a mobile base vehicle. When packed, other structures would also be packed along with it. They could then be reinstalled at a new location.

With this in mind, he felt more at ease. He planned to inspect the other buildings in the chemical factory to find a suitable location for relocating the base.

Upon entering the munitions factory and locating the control panel, Zhao Yu saw the items he could currently exchange for.

The list contained only one option, ‘dagger*. Only after exchanging for more than ten daggers, a ‘pistol’, be unlocked.

The good news was that under the dagger option, there were multiple choices available.

[Dagger-Iron Edge Military Dagger]

[Dagger-Black Sun Military Dagger]

[Dagger-Bat Military Dagger]

Zhao Yu browsed through the options. The Iron Edge Military Dagger was about thirty centimeters, practically qualifying as a short knife.

This military dagger could be affixed to a rifle or held in hand for combat. The dagger had three rhomboid edges and two grooves, allowing it to inject air into the body when stabbed, thus increasing its destructive power.

The Black Sun Military Dagger was more similar to conventional daggers, about ten centimeters in length, but was highly functional. One side was edged while the other had a barb, and the handle’s end incorporated a screwdriver.

It could be used for stabbing, cutting, hacking, sawing, and even clipping. Its versatility made it suitable for various environments.

Additionally, there was a ring at the front of the handle, allowing it to be affixed to a rifle as a bayonet.

Moreover, this dagger came with a leather sheath that could be hung around the waist or thigh, making it easy to access.

The final Bat Military Dagger had a somewhat peculiar shape. The handle was in the middle with blades on both ends—one blade pointed upwards and the other downwards.

During close combat, one could adjust using the wrist, allowing for multi-angle attacks on the enemy.

After a brief overview, Zhao Yu chose the Black Sun Military Dagger due to its strong functionality and ease of carry.

[Black Sun Military Stab: Exchange Requirement: 500 grams of iron, 100 grams of leather.]

[Note: Leather can be artificially synthesized. Pre-construction: The chemical plant.]

“The price is not expensive. Moreover, it doesn’t require any Technology Points…”

Zhao Yu was delighted when he saw the exchange results. The Munitions Factory was better than the Training Camp, and exchanging items didn’t require Technology Points.

“I wonder if it’s because the daggers are too simple?”

With that thought, Zhao Yu quickly called over a group of men. “Set out now and hunt down some wild animals to bring back…”

The leather was required. The system didn’t specify any particular type of skin, implying that any animal’s hide would suffice.

The production of daggers was temporarily halted. But Zhao Yu was in no rush. He once again summoned two more teams.

“You, head into the chemical plant and assess any potential dangers inside…”

“Understood!”

Only one team remained in the vicinity of the base. Zhao Yu instructed them to spread out and patrol while he continued to study the various structures in detail.

[The chemical plant can transform all kinds of synthetic elements…]

[The raw materials needed for the chemical plant are all kinds of mineral resources…]

[You can build a mining plant to identify and collect mineral resources…]

[You can collect mineral resources through the mining carts produced by the

tank factory….]
