Wasteland Commander-Chapter 406 - 97: Major Changes at the Army Level

Ye Fan opened the system page and first went to check the gift pack.

For this gift pack, Ye Fan actually had no high expectations because many things were already maxed out, and his strength improvement mainly came from the enhancement of unit types.

But as soon as he opened the gift pack, the system gave Ye Fan a surprise.

[The Commander’s sidearm, on the original basis, has been upgraded with a freezing ray, theoretically capable of freezing any target, but it requires time; the stronger the target, the longer the freezing time.]

Ye Fan took out the sidearm he rarely used, feeling secretly amazed.

The freezing ray, he knew about this.

In the Red Alert game, there is a unit called the Super-Space-Time Legion Soldier.

This unit has two extremely special abilities, one is space jump, allowing it to jump to any point on the map except water surfaces.

After the jump, his gun can emit a freezing ray to freeze target objects.

Including enemy units and even buildings.

Obviously, this Super-Space-Time Legion Soldier’s ability has been given to him.

It seems that after the upgrade to general rank, the Super-Space-Time Legion Soldier unit should be unlocked.

Holding the sidearm in his hand, Ye Fan looked up and saw a fly flying through the air.

Ye Fan raised his hand and fired a shot. This gun could fire bullets, grenades, lasers, and the freezing ray. He chose the freezing ray.

A cold stream shot out from the gun muzzle, and instantly he even felt the room’s air cool a bit.

And the quickly flying fly was directly frozen into an ice sculpture, falling from the air.

Thud!

The fly shattered into ice fragments, soon turning into water and disappearing.

"Frozen so quickly, it wasn’t even a second."

Ye Fan thought to himself, planning to find a tougher target to test later; this gun is just too cool.

Ye Fan then looked at his new uniform.

He was surprised to find the uniform actually had a new mask.

A golden mask that can completely cover the face, with what seemed to be glass or crystal material embedded in the eye area, allowing him to see outside while obscuring the inside view from the outside.

"This mask doesn’t even expose the mouth, won’t it affect breathing?"

Ye Fan picked it up and tried it on, and immediately the system prompt sounded.

[The Commander’s mask, made of Red Alert special materials, is unique and can maintain smooth breathing in extremely thin air environments.]

Ye Fan was momentarily stunned: "In extremely thin air conditions? Which environments does that include?"

[The mask is connected to the Commander’s storage bag, and in highlands, underwater, troposphere, stratosphere, as long as not leaving the planet’s atmosphere, breathing can be maintained as long as the air in the Commander’s storage bag is not exhausted.]

Hearing the system prompt, Ye Fan was truly shocked.

It could work like this, isn’t this a super oxygen mask that connects to the storage bag?

Ye Fan quickly checked the storage bag and found it had changed too.

The space within the storage bag had expanded again, with an area roughly about one square kilometer.

It’s like a giant sports field, neat and flat, with a circle of trees around and a river along the edge.

In this area, accommodating tens of thousands of people would be no problem, and the air quality is excellent.

This is a massive storage space. Even if Ye Fan had no other skills, just with this storage space, he could do well in the apocalypse.

[The Commander’s storage bag has added a new function that allows the commander himself to enter it to hide.]

Upon hearing this, Ye Fan immediately acted on a thought and instantly entered the space inside.

Breathing here felt no different from outside, but the sky around was smaller, allowing him to move within this one-square-kilometer area.

Ye Fan curiously asked, "I came in; what about the me outside?"

"Gone, as long as the Commander stays here, no one can find you outside, and you can leave anytime you wish."

Ye Fan asked the system again, "Is the air in my storage bag self-sufficient or obtained from outside?"

[Currently obtained from the outside; in different environments, the amount of oxygen gained varies, but the air in just this space could keep the Commander breathing for a century.]

At this, Ye Fan had a hunch, wondering if with further upgrades, the air in this storage space could become self-sufficient?

If it could become self-sufficient, wouldn’t it mean he could breathe even in space or in a vacuum environment?

In any case, this new storage bag also brought Ye Fan a huge surprise.

Coming out of the storage bag, Ye Fan then looked at the serums.

[The Commander’s medical kit: Contains eight vials of Antiviral Serum, capable of rescuing someone even when they are 90% zombified.]

This too had been improved, but Ye Fan was still eagerly anticipating whether the next upgrade would be 100%.

Once that day comes, can it be mass-produced?

Once mass-produced, could it end this apocalypse?

Ye Fan wasn’t too sure, but at least there was hope.

Finally, looking at the vehicle, he originally thought there wouldn’t be any changes to the vehicle, but unexpectedly, it was different.

The vehicle had grown at least five times in size from the original off-road RV, becoming as large as a truck and transforming into an amphibious vehicle.

[Commander’s Ride: Amphibious, capable of navigating rivers, the Great River, and coastal waters up to a hundred meters deep, equipped with an air filtration system, water circulation system, solar power system, and wireless network, allowing free internet access.]

Ye Fan couldn’t help but get inside to take a look, and the interior design had changed, making it resemble a house.

It had a home theater, bathtub, kitchen, living room, bedroom, etc., sufficient for accommodating five or six people without any issues.

Moreover, the solar power system was impressive, able to charge the vehicle with sunlight, providing a month’s range on a single charge, which was extremely convenient.

"This is unbelievably advanced; if it upgrades to a command level, I can hardly imagine what it would become."

Ye Fan silently admired it, feeling very satisfied with the upgrade package.

Of course, that wasn’t the main point; the main thing was to look at the troops.

Ye Fan opened the buildings page, initially thinking there would be no changes, but then he noticed two new buildings.

[Super Weapon Research Institute: For the research and development of Super Weapons such as the Nuclear Bomb Launching Well, Lightning Storm, Super-Space-Time Transmission Device, and Iron Curtain, costing 50 million gold.]

[Space Weapons Research Institute: For the research and development of space-based weapons, aerospace weapons, and space stations, costing 1 billion gold. Note: Requires unlocking all Super Weapons.]

Seeing these two buildings, Ye Fan was stunned for a long time.

Super Weapons!

Super Weapons are about to come out!

The Red Alert System’s Super Weapons are extremely powerful; particularly the Nuclear Bomb Launching Well, which launches a rocket with a nuclear bomb, turning wherever it lands into ruins.

The Lightning Storm is similar, with large lightning strikes descending from the sky to attack enemies, almost impossible to withstand.

The Super-Space-Time Transmission Device is even more impressive, able to transport an entire force anywhere, directly striking into the enemy’s interior.

The Iron Curtain is simply unreasonable; any unit covered by the Iron Curtain is invulnerable, and no one can kill them before it dissipates.

Once I unlock these four Super Weapons, who can be my opponent?

Not to mention after the apocalypse, even before it, I would not fear anyone.

But the cost of 50 million made Ye Fan step back immediately.

No money left.

As for the subsequent Space Weapons Research Institute, it’s obviously even more advanced.

It can develop space-based weapons and space stations, but what are these space weapons?

Are they spaceships? Flying saucers?

Ye Fan couldn’t quite imagine it.

Besides, the cost of 1 billion is something he cannot afford right now.

After looking at these two buildings for some time, Ye Fan reluctantly opened the defense page.

The defense page revealed a few new items.

[Alloy City Wall: A wall made of mixed metal, capable of withstanding all thermal weapons, including the Mushroom Bomb, with a height of fifty meters and a thickness of fifteen meters, embedded fifteen meters underground, costing 3,000 gold per meter, with the price reduced by 90% through resource supplements.]

[Ultimate Alloy City Wall: A wall made of mixed metal, capable of withstanding all thermal weapons, including the Mushroom Bomb, with a height of a hundred meters and a thickness of thirty meters, embedded thirty meters underground, costing 10,000 gold per meter, with the price reduced by 90% through resource supplements. Note: With the Ultimate Alloy City Wall, the location of city gates can be specified at will.]

[Ultimate Alloy Watchtower: Can be built on top of the city wall, with a height of thirty meters, accommodating a squad of soldiers, equipped with one 30mm autocannon and one 20mm anti-air/ground autocannon, auto-refreshing 10,000 rounds of ammunition daily. Note: The interior of the watchtower can house a Light Prism Tower.]

[Heaven’s Eye Radio Telescope: For monitoring space, covering a range of 50 million kilometers, capable of monitoring celestial bodies and all signals in space, costing 10 million gold.]

[War Fortress: An alloy-built castle-type stronghold with a diameter of five hundred meters and a height of one hundred and fifty meters, featuring a thousand sniper points, a thousand machine gun shooting ports, and five hundred artillery windows, each operating independently, housing five thousand defensive troops and weapons, costing 50 million gold. Note: Upgradeable.]

Seeing these four buildings, Ye Fan slightly grinned.

He had thought that the thirty-meter Ultimate City Wall was the final wall of Red Alert, but there were alloy walls too.

Especially the hundred-meter-high wall, costing 10,000 gold per meter, even with steel and other metals provided, it costs 1,000 gold per meter.

How much would it cost to build a big city?

The Heaven’s Eye Radio Telescope surprised Ye Fan; it’s priced like an aircraft carrier, used for space monitoring.

But what’s there to monitor in space? Near-Earth space has nothing but the moon, right?

Could it be an asteroid is coming for a collision?

Or a damaged space station or satellite requiring monitoring?

Ye Fan thought this item seemed temporarily useless, but he knew in the future this thing would be very useful.

What shocked him most was the birth of the War Fortress.

This was a massive alloy castle-type stronghold, nearly invincible in defensive combat.

Place one in a critical area, and neither zombies nor enemies could shake it.

But Ye Fan had a concern: once this structure was built, how do you move it after using it once?

And what about that upgradeable option, what does it mean?

What happens when this thing is upgraded? Can it fly or move?

He didn’t know yet and couldn’t afford to build it, but it didn’t stop him from continuing to explore new troops.

After all, at the moment, new troops or vehicles are the key to the continued strength of the Dawn Army.
