After Ryan chatted with Edward for a while, there was a knock on the door.
A spider-like robot stood at the door, and Edward inserted a steel plate with holes on its body into a hole of the robot. A drawer popped out of the robot, a food box used to hold food.
Really advanced! Ryan sighed inwardly, even after all the practice he did, he wasn't able to make a takeaway robot.
Dave is indeed a genius. He came up with so many new uses.
After dinner and chatting for a while, Ryan and Edward said good night to each other and went back to their rooms early. After all, tomorrow they are going on a war, everyone needs to rest well before participating.
The master bedroom has been emptied and prepared for Ryan. Ryan walked into the bedroom, only to find that on the bed was an assassin costume cut to fit his figure, which should be Edward's gift.
Although Ryan felt a bit of pity for the costume, after all, he's growing up very quickly with his age, but then he thought about it, you know, he can also use this as a template In the Diagon Alley to ask someone to make a costume that can grow in size with him or can be easily resized. Because this suit is most suitable for Ryan's melee techniques, it is far more convenient to move around in this than the Hogwarts school uniform.
There's also an iron box placed on the clothes. After opening it, Ryan found that there was a gilded steel plate with holes in it, which was similar to the rod used by Edward for fetching the meal. This should be the ID card that Dave has produced.
Ryan picked up the weird ID card, its size was about as same as a little baby's palm, and then went to bed after practicing some spell for a while. Because tomorrow he was going to participate in a real war, Ryan was a little excited and he turned over and over again in bed for a while before he slowly fell asleep.
The next morning, Ryan got up early, washed up, and then put on the assassin costume. It has to be said that this professionally designed clothing is more adept for sports and combat than ordinary clothing.
After having breakfast and saying goodbye to Jennifer, Ryan and Edward went to the scheduled square to meet others. Reaching here Ryan found out that the people preparing to set out this time had almost all assembled in the square. The number of people on this expedition is about 500, and everyone is using a robot as a means of transportation.
What surprised Ryan was that the robot had a special cultivation tank on them with a lot of plants in it. It seems that these plants are weapons to be used in combat against the zombies.
At this time, Dave finished his pre-war speech and walked to Ryan and said to Ryan: "It was difficult for us to attack before because the plants couldn't move. If we plant little by little, expanding outwards slowly, the progress will be too slow and the manpower ended up being insufficient as we would eventually end up spreading too thin. Plus, over time, most of the vehicles are no longer working, and we couldn't organize maneuvering of forces at all before, so there used to be no counterattack against the zombies."
Ryan asked a little strangely: "There are only 500 people operating 500 robots, which is still a lot less compared to the tens of thousands of zombies. Can the counterattack succeed?" "Thanks to the technology you provided." Dave said excitedly: "In fact, there are 5,000 robots outside the town. Everyone is just going to direct the robots to fight. Since we have robots, we can grow more plants. It also gives plants unparalleled mobility."
No wonder this group of combatants have men, women, and children. On the one hand, they do not require melee combat and have very low physical fitness requirements. On the other hand, the current population is insufficient, and all the manpower that can be mobilized is already being mobilized.
That's why these plants and robots can be used so quickly by everyone because humans are already scarce to this extent. Ryan imagined that the human civilization in this world will likely become a plant - steampunk hybrid civilization in the future.
Edward set off ahead of time with 5 people and 50 robots. As investigators, they need to find proper information and way, while being in front of the army. Dave invited Ryan to ride the robot with him.
Ryan found out that the 100 robots directly under him and Dave were different from ordinary robots.
Each robot is two-story tall, more than that just in the square one can easily notice the difference, these robots are carrying a huge metal box on them, from the sides of the metal boxes of big pipes were oozing out the fine white steam. The steam emitted by so many robots made this place look like a fairyland.
Seeing Ryan's curious eyes, Dave explained: "Ordinary robots need regular and quantitative replenishment of high-temperature and high-pressure steam, but with their size, you can't install a boiler in them. So I invented these kinds of large robots, which can use energy attacks against special zombies on one hand and fight against Large-scale zombies attacks on the other hand, But their main purpose is to supplement steam to the other robots on the battlefield."
Ryan expressed his admiration for Dave, a mad scientist, who could learn so much and make improvements in such a short period of time. He was an incredible person.
As he spoke, the two climbed a large robot from the back and began to move, marching towards the intended battlefield.
The goal of this battle is to create as much noise as possible in the suburbs of the City, lure the zombies out of the city and completely annihilate them in the field. In this way, they can easily occupy City and obtain the necessary materials and industrial capabilities for the next step. It can also accommodate a larger population.
The good news is that the last time Ryan came to participate in the war, the zombie leader of the City was annihilated along with many high-level zombies when he attacked Dave's town. Now there is no leader among the zombies in the City, and only a few high-level zombies are here, barely leading a large group of zombies who act on instinct. That's why Dave worked out on the plan to get the snake out of the hole. Because, if as there are only a few advanced zombies, it'll be extremely difficult for them to control the zombie horde. Metal giants going only forward, toward the city more than thirty kilometers away. Ryan was a little bored during the journey and began to ask Dave some questions about this world.
From Dave's answer, Ryan learned that this world might have been five or six years ahead of Ryan's previous life. A meteorite fell, and some research on the meteorite caused the spread of the 'not' resident evil crisis. It's just that the meteorite seems to have also changed the world, making Dave able to cultivate these magical plants.
However, compared with the world of Ryan's previous life, this world has not developed nuclear weapons due to different physical rules. For monsters like zombies, conventional weapons are obviously ineffective against them, especially the mutants. In addition, the spread of 'not' T-virus that year broke out in a very violent and sudden manner. Humans also lacked sufficient manpower to operate conventional weapons against such anomaly.
For the zombie side, there are only a few high-level zombies that can operate weapons intelligently, and the remaining zombies can only do some simple activities. So now there is basically no room for conventional weapons in the world, and the form of warfare has only turned into Plants vs. Zombies mode.
Time passed slowly in the chat, and suddenly, Ryan felt that the giant robot stopped. The originally predetermined battlefield has arrived, and the war is about to break out.
