The rise of nanometers

January 24th.

More than half a month has passed since the eruption of the Yellowstone volcano, and the isolation area established around the Yellowstone volcano has been gradually improved from one front-line base to four front-line bases.

In addition, the federal mainland has once again mobilized a group of Dapeng ground-effect transport aircraft and Kunpeng transport aircraft to deliver supplies to North America day and night.

At this time, 4 frontline bases and 12 rear bases have stored 820,000 tons of rockets, which can deposit 9 million tons of volcanic ash at one time.

Although another large-scale eruption occurred at the Yellowstone volcano during this period, the situation on the west coast of America has been completely controlled.

The strength of the expeditionary force has also increased to 150,000 men.

In the urban area of ​​San Francisco, the street sweeping team that Tom saw were soldiers from the expeditionary force, as well as some temporarily recruited soldiers from the US Army.

Cleaning trucks continued to absorb volcanic ash from the road, while soldiers used shovels and brooms to clean away the condensed particles.

Although he was stunned for a while, Tom suppressed his curiosity because he was now more concerned about another thing, which was the issue of food and medicine.

He turned two streets and came to the nearest supermarket. When he walked in, he found that the shelves in the supermarket were empty. There was only one waiter, wearing a mask and sitting at the checkout counter, boredly playing a stand-alone game on his mobile phone.

"Dude! When will you have something for sale?"

The waiter shook his head and replied coldly: "I don't know."

Like Tom who fell into an ice cave, he only felt a coldness in his hands and feet, perhaps due to inner despair or physical hunger.

When he walked out of the supermarket, his steps became heavier and he felt a little lost.

Suddenly he was hit and almost fell to the ground. The person who bumped into him hurriedly turned around and shouted:

"Sorry! Man!"

Tom was not in the mood to care.

The man had just taken a few steps when he turned back and shouted again: "By the way, good news. There is a federal relief center over there in Golden Gate Park. If you need it, come over!"

"What?" Tom's expression was stunned, and then a surge of strength surged from his body and he quickly caught up: "Man, you said there is a relief center in Golden Gate Park?"

"Huhu...yes!"

The two ran for more than ten minutes. Because they were wearing masks, they were somewhat out of breath. However, Golden Gate Park was already close at hand, so they gritted their teeth and persisted.

When they entered Golden Gate Park, they were stopped by heavily armed soldiers. One of the assembled American soldiers shouted in English:

"Line up and don't do anything else."

Then the soldier pointed to a large bloodstain not far away and said with a half-smile: "If you want to test the power of the bullet with your body, then please do it yourself."

The two of them immediately became quiet and lined up obediently.

There were many people in the queue, and they were all wearing all kinds of strange protective equipment, some homemade and some "purchased".

The queue formed into four lines, which seemed very long, but was actually very fast. During the queue, the staff also issued an instruction guide to them.

Within about seven minutes, it was Tom's turn.

After he entered a tent, there were four staff inside, and one of them asked: "Driver's license or social security account number."

Tom took out his driver's license and handed it over.

"Have you read the guide yet?"

"Look!" Tom nodded.

"OK, hand over the gun. Make sure the muzzle is facing down and don't make any other movements. Do you understand?" the staff member reminded.

Tom didn't dare to mess around. He handed a pistol to the staff as prompted. In fact, he was given a hundred courages to not mess around here.

Because the muzzle of a drone armor was aimed at his body the moment he came in. As long as Tom dared to move, he would be beaten directly into a sieve.

Another staff member drew a tube of blood from him, then put a bracelet on his wrist, stuffed a new guide into his hand, and waved his hand:

"Go to the next area by yourself."

Tom took the guide and went to the next tent. He was stuffed into the comprehensive physical examination cabin. After being examined, he was rushed to the next area.

Here, he received a relief package in a daze and was kicked out of Golden Gate Park.

At the side of the park, he held the big relief bag with some fear and was wary of the crowd around him.

But he thought too much. Anyone who dared to cause trouble in the city would have eaten lotus seed soup long ago.

Now there are police cars and armored patrol vehicles on the streets, as well as a large number of warning drones. As soon as he presses the alarm button or a nearby drone detects a security incident, he will immediately kill those who violate emergency safety regulations. .

This is a semi-apocalyptic state. The expeditionary force, which does not have much manpower to waste on maintaining law and order, must use extraordinary means to directly suppress those monsters and monsters with thunder.

After Tom became nervous, he looked through several guides carefully, and then he knew that the bracelet on his wrist was equivalent to a temporary ID card, as well as a locator, alarm, and monitor.

I also briefly read the emergency safety regulations to avoid accidentally violating the provisions and being directly killed by a drone or drone armor.

In addition, he also knew what was in the large relief package.

The large relief bag contains a complete set of protective equipment, including multi-functional protective clothing, a foldable protective helmet, and an electric shock flashlight;

Then there are food, drinking water, solid alcohol, windproof lighters, first aid kits, etc.

The food inside can sustain an individual's needs for a week, but each person can only receive it once. If you want to receive it repeatedly, don't even think about it.

On the positioning bracelet, physical characteristics and genetic information are entered.

Even if you smash the locating bracelet, you will not be able to get the second relief package, and you will become a real gangster.

Moreover, the locating bracelet contains 500 credits issued by the federation to temporary citizens. Smashing the bracelet means giving up these 500 credits completely.

You know, the purchasing power of 500 credits is enough for an adult to buy about 3 months of food.

Anyway, there are already quite a few Mo people who use their chimpanzee-like brains to demonstrate for themselves how to "smash bracelets".

In troubled times, heavy codes were used, and now even the second best in the world has failed. The Federation is truly invincible within Blue Star, and there is no need to worry about anything.

If you don't accept it, leave the safety control area politely.

With the current harsh environment in North America, leaving the safe zone controlled by the expeditionary force is no different from directly facing death.

Although the expeditionary force is currently suppressing the volcanic ash impact of the Yellowstone volcano, the volcanic ash that fell in North America has already formed a layer of volcanic ash on the surface with a thickness of about 8 to 740 millimeters.

Although California is better than the Great Lakes region, the thickness of volcanic ash is still about 11 mm. In this case, the volcanic ash is enough to destroy 90% of the animals and plants on the ground.

Leaving the safe zone means losing supplies. In the wild, where the weather is freezing and full of dust and poisonous gas, even if Bei Yede is possessed, it will probably be a dead end.

Carrying a large relief bag on his back, Tom hurried to his community.

Local people similar to Tom quickly adapted to the management of the expeditionary force after the disaster.

At the same time, a huge fleet of ships arrived in San Francisco's port area today.

In addition to 24 warships, the fleet also has 36 100,000-ton cargo ships, transporting 3.6 million tons of various materials at one time.
