Doomsday Bunker Upgrade Chapter 238: Car repair
After correcting the broken bones, Chen Xin's injuries were finally properly dealt with, but the pain caused by the bone setting was so severe that it took Chen Xin a long time to rest before recovering.
He said to Zeng Liu that he would stay for a day, not to wait for Zeng Liu and the others to pack up, but to use this time to repair the antenna that was damaged in the avalanche.
At the same time, Chen Xin also plans to do some maintenance on his car.
Although the system did not find any problems before the self-check, but after all, it suffered an avalanche and was completely buried under the snow. No matter what, a comprehensive inspection and maintenance should be carried out to avoid possible problems.
And along the way, Chen Xin found that although the car is very good in all aspects, it still lacks polishing and tuning, and some areas still need to be adjusted.
Of course, these adjustments refer to adjustments to the parts and state of the vehicle, and do not require Chen Xin to spend Survival Points.
It's just that this kind of adjustment requires professional knowledge and understanding of the vehicle, and Chen Xin only knows some skins and just makes some small adjustments.
Because of his arm injury and the outdoor environment, Chen Xin was not very good at repairing his car, so the antenna of the radar kept breaking.
But now that the arm has been treated and the environment of the underground parking lot is relatively quiet, Chen Xin can naturally repair the damaged radar antenna.
From the stairs of the living cabin to the second floor, strictly speaking, there is only a half floor here. It is used as a second double bed. It can sleep or sit on the floor, but there is no space to stand up. There is also an exit to the roof of the car.
The exit on the roof itself is designed for maintenance on the roof of the vehicle, so even if Chen Xin injured a hand, he can easily climb to the roof.
However, looking at the layer of snow on the top of the car, Chen Xin scratched his head a little. After thinking about it, he went back to the car and retracted the three drones, leaving only one of the combat drones with searchlights to provide Lighting, and then took a broom, and then returned to the roof of the car.
The snow on the roof of the car was cleaned with a broom, and Chen Xin came to the position of the antenna.
Looking at the radar antenna that was obviously smashed and twisted, Chen Xin knew that the antenna was useless even if he didn't know any mechanical knowledge.
Although half of it is still intact, the other half has been twisted into a ball. If you want to fix it, you need to replace it with a new one or rebuild it.
However, for Chen Xinla, this is not a problem that is too difficult to solve. It takes 100 Survival Points to upgrade the "damaged radar antenna" to an "improved radar antenna", and the repair work is complete.
After repairing the antenna, Chen Xin returned to the car, and while retracting the last drone, he also turned on the radar again.
Seeing that the radar was back online and back to work, Chen Xin breathed a sigh of relief. The damage to the radar in the past two days made Chen Xin feel very uncomfortable.
Now that the radar has once again brought the surrounding environment under control, Chen Xin felt a lot more at ease. At least he didn't have to smear the road anymore and only rely on drones to detect the road conditions.
In the current environment where the environment is completely dark, even if the drone has an infrared camera, the detection range is extremely limited. Compared with the radar that can scan a radius of five kilometers, the surrounding information that can be obtained is too little. Up.
If there is a radar, Chen Xin doesn't need to install a life detector on the drone at all, and he can search for Zeng Liu's life signals directly with a radar scan.
After repairing the radar, Chen Xin used the radar to scan the surrounding area again, and he made new discoveries as expected.
The county town is indeed almost abandoned, but within the five-kilometer radar scanning area, Zeng Liu is not the only group of survivors who survived.
About three kilometers from Chen Xin's location, Chen Xin also detected other vital signs.
Other survivors? Chen Xin is not good at judging, but he has no plans to contact them either.
One more thing is worse than one less thing. Zeng Liu's group was because she helped Chen Xin treat his arm. Since she promised to take them to the next shelter, Chen Xin felt that it would be better to keep his promise as a human being.
But he didn't have so much love that he felt that everyone had to save him.
So Chen Xin just sent a drone to fly around and take a look at the other party's situation.
Seeing that the other party seems to be a little better than Zeng Liu and the others, Chen Xin has nothing to do and no longer pays attention to them.
As for whether these people can survive, Chen Xin doesn't think it has much to do with him.
There are too many people in the world who need to be saved. Chen Xin doesn't think he can save everyone. He has neither the strength nor the idea.
If you see one and you want to save one, you will get yourself in sooner or later.
Chen Xin wouldn't be stingy with his own help if he met someone who could help him, but Chen Xin wouldn't do something like he was rushing to help others.
Without paying attention to the survivors, Chen Xin turned the radar to the alert mode, then found the toolbox and planned to adjust the state of the vehicle.
Although Chen Xin was satisfied with the performance of this car in all aspects, there are still areas that need to be adjusted.
So Chen Xin found out his toolbox and planned to take this opportunity to adjust it.
However, when Chen Xin opened the cabinet of the tool box, he unexpectedly found that there were three space suits and a pistol left by Zhang Chengguang and the others, and there was a piece of paper under the pistol, which looked like It was Zhang Chengguang and the others.
Chen Xin picked up the paper, with a message from Zhang Chengguang written on it, generally meaning that these three space suits and pistols were given to Chen Xin as a thank you gift for helping them along the way, and also specially reminded , the space suit can be used as a protective suit to provide Chen Xin with sufficient life protection, while the pistol is not to be taken out casually, as a self-defense weapon to save life when necessary.
Not only that, but the paper also carefully wrote the precautions on how to wear the space suit, how to check, how to supplement oxygen and so on.
Holding this piece of paper, Chen Xin was still somewhat moved, feeling that he didn't save these three people in vain.
Chen Xin is still scratching his head at these things in the cabinet, not knowing what to do with it.
The gun is easy to handle, and it's not a problem to put it in the cabinet, just find a place to store it properly, but the space suit is actually a bit tasteless.
Space suits can of course be used as protective clothing. This kind of clothing prepared for the space environment is simply excess defense when placed on the ground.
But as a protective suit, there is a big problem with it being heavy.
A space suit is at least 20 or 30 kilograms, which still does not account for the weight of the extravehicular backpack and thruster.
Of course, this weight is nothing in space. No matter how heavy things are in a zero-gravity environment, you can't feel it, but the problem is that when you put it on the ground, the weight of 20 to 30 pounds is a bit difficult.
It's okay to wear it for a short time, but if you wear it for a long time, it will feel like you are doing weight-bearing exercises in a suit of armor, which consumes more physical strength.
More physical energy consumption means more energy consumption of the body, and more food needs to be added to recover.
This is very important in the last days when this kind of food is very precious. It is very important to save every bit of consumption. If possible, such unnecessary consumption should be avoided as much as possible.
Although the environment is very harsh now, there is really no need to use a space suit for protective clothing, which is wasteful and unnecessary.
But this is the kindness of Zhang Chengguang and the others. Although such a space suit is tasteless now, it is surprisingly expensive. Whether it is the materials on it or the various machines and equipment attached, even before the disaster, every The cost of the set is also astronomical.
In-vehicle suits like this are quite normal. If it is an extravehicular space suit, the cost of a set will be about 200 million yuan.
So Zhang Chengguang and the others were able to leave three sets of space suits to Chen Xin. They really wanted to thank him and gave him a very heavy gift.
It's just that this gift is a bit too heavy, so Chen Xin doesn't know what to do with these things.
Would you like to upgrade to a higher-tech space suit?
Chen Xin had this idea in his mind, but he dispelled it by himself.
If you want to upgrade, it is not a space suit. After all, Chen Xin can't go to space now, and he doesn't need space-level protection at all. When he has the ability to go to the sky, he will definitely not lack space suits.
So the biggest use of these three space suits is to upgrade them in the direction of protective clothing. Perhaps the power armor that Chen Xin has always wanted is on these three space suits.
But this is just an idea at the moment. Chen Xin has no urgent need for protective clothing, nor does he have the desire to purchase new equipment.
So he just checked the three suits and locked them back in the locker ~IndoMTL.com~ and went to adjust the car with the kit.
While Chen Xin was adjusting the car, Zeng Liu and others in the underground garage were also packing up their belongings.
Because Chen Xin said that they should only bring their own important belongings, Zeng Liu and the others are turning out their belongings and sorting them one by one.
Although I wanted to take it away, I felt that I couldn't put it down, but Zeng Liu was still making a choice, and only brought the most important or felt very necessary things.
Perhaps because of the willingness to leave here immediately, whether it is Zeng Liu, Lao Tang, or Ning Jie who is still ill, they are all very happy, and the little leaves on the side are even more excited. , turning around from time to time, picking up and putting down various things, and no longer knowing what to do.
In fact, even Zeng Liu and Lao Tang are very excited, but they still need to be more calm, and they have to prepare things to take away, so they are not as self-conscious as Xiao Ye Ye.
But even so, their hearts are excited, happy and excited to be able to leave here and start a new life.
