MTL - Wasteland Commander

Chapter 32 Driving the Train

 When Ye Fan was playing the game, he knew that some supply boxes would release collective star upgrades.

 However, this star upgrade is only limited to a certain range, and not all the units it owns have stars upgraded.

 Those who go to collect supply boxes and those near the supply boxes will have stars raised, but others will not.

Ye Fan is very careful when playing the game, trying to let as many troops collect as possible, so that he can make money if he encounters a rising star.

 He has money now, and he wants to raise troops anyway, so he might as well build it and give it a try.

I didn’t expect it to be successful. The reward for this supply box is a collective star increase within ten meters.

 Five army soldiers were just born and immediately became one-star soldiers.

There is a big gap between starless warriors and one-star warriors. Each one-star army warrior has 180 bullets at his disposal, which is equivalent to adding 900 bullets to Ye Fan's firepower out of thin air!

Even the newly born military dog ​​turned into a star and looked very big.

 Ye Fan turned around and looked at all the units around him, his eyes suddenly lit up.

In this Trojan defense battle, the total number of zombies killed has been close to 2,000. Before he knew it, several of his subordinates had actually completed their star promotion.

 After this collective star promotion, a big change has occurred.

Wang Hu himself is already at the top level of three stars and cannot be promoted any further, but the other eight mobilization soldiers have now been collectively upgraded to three stars!

Not to mention the three Li Biao, the five produced later were also promoted to corporal during the battle, and now they were collectively promoted to sergeant!

Each three-star conscript has 210 bullets at its disposal. These nine conscripts are a powerful firepower group.

 The two medics have also been upgraded to one star, and have an extra pistol magazine. However, their main skill is not combat, but medical treatment.

"You two, have your medical standards improved?" Ye Fan asked tentatively.

“Sir, our current level and equipment are capable of performing simple surgical treatments!”

Ye Fan patted their shoulders happily. They were able to perform surgery so quickly. This star promotion was really a big profit.

 Xu Haoran beside him was promoted to two stars during this star promotion.

 The 50-round silent submachine gun now has two magazines and 150 rounds.

 “What are the main changes for you?”

“Sir, my main change is my skill. As a two-star, I can kill agile quasi-mutated zombies with bare hands. If I advance to three-star, I can even kill agile zombies alone!”

Ye Fan has a deep understanding of the terror of agile zombies. The speed is too fast, and it is difficult for snipers to target them. He really did not expect that a soldier can kill agile zombies alone.

 He looked at the sniper Chen Chuan again, and the sniper also reached the first star.

 “What about you, what’s changed?”

“Sir, the number of bullets of my sniper rifle has been increased to twenty, and my abilities in all aspects have been improved. No matter whether I face armored zombies or agile zombies, within a distance of 1,500 meters, I will die within three shots!”

 When the sniper was first created, it was to deal with armored zombies. After all, those things moved slowly. Unexpectedly, they encountered agile zombies for the first time, and the sniper didn't have much chance to show off.

 But it was different after rising to the star. He dared to say that he would die with three shots within 1500 meters, so it was very likely that he would die with one shot.

 In the future, more and more battles will mainly involve dealing with high-level zombies. The star upgrade of the sniper is a huge gain. The star upgrade of the scout is actually to deal with people to a greater extent.

 Finally, there are the army soldier Luo Fei and the military dog ​​Xiaotian.

 The military dog ​​Xiaotian has become a two-star mutant dog. If it was as big as a lioness before, it now looks as big as a male lion.

At this moment, there was a companion beside him, and another military dog ​​squatted next to Xiaotian with his tongue hanging out, looking like the two brothers were getting along well.

Ye Fan knows that one dog and two dogs are completely different concepts. One dog needs to fight the enemy head-on, but two dogs can cooperate with each other.

 A good tiger cannot fight against a pack of wolves, that’s the truth.

Although dogs are not as efficient as soldiers in fighting zombies, dogs are not as capable as soldiers in terms of tracking, vigilance, and dealing with mutant beasts.

With money in hand, Ye Fan is also planning to expand the number of military dogs.

 Among all the changes, none was as obvious as that of army soldier Luo Fei.

Luo Fei’s original weapon was a Bayi Bar, but after upgrading to three stars, his main weapon changed.

  turned into a domestic CS/LMB8 light machine gun!

 Ye Fan also knows that this gun is modified based on the foreign Minimi light machine gun. It is a very famous light machine gun around the world.

 High rate of fire, large ammunition capacity, low weight, and long service life are all the advantages of this light machine gun.

There is a tripod under the machine gun. The machine gun can be set up for use at any time, or the tripod can be folded and used as a large automatic rifle.

There is a circular turntable in the magazine of the gun, and Luo Fei has a circle of bullet chains hanging on his body!

In previous games, Samsung Army soldiers were very powerful ground units, known for their ferocious firepower. Unexpectedly, in reality, Samsung Army soldiers were actually equipped with machine guns.

“How many bullets do you have now?” Ye Fan asked, looking at Luo Fei, an army soldier in the shape of a small Terminator with a yellow-orange bullet belt hanging all over his body.

“Sir, the number of bullets for the light machine gun is 500 rounds per day!”

Ye Fan nodded happily. A machine gun is a machine gun. It has advantages that rifles cannot match. Especially on the frontal battlefield, when the machine gun fires, it has huge lethality against the enemy.

 Several new army soldiers even consciously stood behind Luo Fei to show respect for their superiors.

 This collective star promotion has transformed Ye Fan's strength.

  Touching Form 54 on his waist, and looking at the two medics on the opposite side who had improved in strength, Ye Fan found that he seemed to be lagging behind again.

 There were two people who were probably about the same strength as me, but now they have left me behind.

He finally couldn't help but ask Nana: "Nana, is there any way I can improve my strength?"

 Originally, I had no hope, but I didn’t expect Nana to give an answer.

“Sir, if you can build a physical combat laboratory, it can be developed according to your commander’s physique, but it is not yet certain whether it will be successful.”

Ye Fan nodded, feeling a little happy in his heart. Although it would still be some time before the actual building was built, at least he had a hope.

Looking at his men, there were twenty people plus two dogs, strong soldiers and horses. Ye Fan felt that there was no need to continue to delay here.

 “Get ready to take action and completely eliminate the zombies downstairs!”

 Chen Chuan was the first to stick his head out of the window, and a sniper rifle rang out!

“Reporting to the commander, the agile zombies have been eliminated!”

Ye Fan looked over and saw that, sure enough, the agile zombie whose claws had been injured by Chen Chuan had his head exploded and was lying motionless on the ground.

 The one-star sniper is really powerful.

Chen Chuan then took action and shot the remaining two quasi-mutated zombies one after another. Then it was time for the soldiers to open fire collectively.

There were three to four hundred zombies gathered on the ground. They didn't even last five minutes before they were already covered in corpses.

 “Let’s go downstairs and collect supplies.”

The group of people slid down the metal escalator, opened the iron door of the watchtower and walked out, spreading out to collect gold and silver for Ye Fan.

 But the amount of gold and silver this time is not much, many of them are child zombies, nothing.

Some old zombies, daddy zombies, and park staff didn’t have anything. They only found some jewelry on some young mothers.

 In the end, it was only more than 400 money in Ye Fan's hands.

 “Okay, it’s better than nothing.”

Looking at the amusement park now, there are very few zombies, and they are basically invisible. Even if there are zombies, they are gathered on the other side, which is relatively far away.

Ye Fan has no intention of killing the zombies in the distance. He has already wasted a lot of time on the road and there is still a long way to go home.

This watchtower is useless if it is left here. Ye Fan clicks on the recycling of the red alert and recycles the watchtower at half price.

It cost 1,200 to build, and now 600 gold has been recovered.

 Including the money in his hand, he has more than a thousand dollars.

Ye Fan did not use the thousand and ten points of money immediately. The money could be used to continue to raise troops or produce an engineer. Ye Fan had not yet figured out how to do it, so he would keep it for now and depend on the situation.

Ye Fan led his troops and left over the wall from Yida City Amusement Park.

 Leaving here, the group of people who had greatly increased their strength moved forward quickly, passed through a residential area, and came to the intersection of Airport Road and Zhanqian Road.

Looking at the radar, Ye Fan has already locked the next route.

 In the city, there is actually a road where zombies are very rare and it is safe.

 That’s the railway!

Nowadays, high-speed trains are equipped with protective nets, making it difficult for zombies to climb over. If you go along the railway, you can even go directly to the train station in Ye Fan's hometown.

 Although there is still nearly a hundred kilometers away, the speed will increase a lot.

They took a detour from the small road in front of the station instead of going to the zombie den-like station. They climbed over the railway guard net and arrived inside the station.

Here he even saw two trains that had collided with each other and both had rolled down the tracks. Fortunately, they were inside the station and did not block the train track in the distance.

Avoiding the zombies on the platform, Ye Fan saw a white EMU parked in front of him.

This car has not yet loaded any passengers, and the compartment is empty, so it has escaped disaster when the end of the world comes.

 There are locomotives on both sides and eight carriages in the middle.

 Seeing this train, Ye Fan's heart moved.

Walking this 100-kilometer journey is too slow. If I could drive a train, would I be able to get home easily?

“Xu Haoran, can you drive a train?”

 “Sir, it’s okay!”

 “Okay, let’s get in the car and drive the train home!”
