Chapter 749: Chapter 291: Clearing the Restricted Area, Constructing a Pontoon Bridge_4
Uncle Ge looked at Han Xiangman, then suddenly smiled and nodded heavily, "I believe."
Meanwhile, in the crowd, Huang Han, Wu Ying, Shi Haizhu, Gu Feng, Gao Li, Xia Ming, Luo Hongmian... everyone clenched their fists in excitement.
This was the leader they had chosen, the leader of their Yangshan Shelter!
Following such a strong person was the only way to survive in this apocalyptic flood world!
At this moment, everyone felt the power of Liang Yuan and an unprecedented sense of security!
The impact and influence brought by the Black Gold Giant Ape were still increasing.
Liang Yuan’s personal prestige was also rising limitlessly amid the Black Gold Giant Ape’s violent means!
In less than an hour, near the shores of the Water Marsh Restricted Area, the forest collapsed and the ground was covered with huge footprints and fist marks.
The land trampled by the Black Gold Giant Ape was a complete mess.
Various monster corpses were scattered on the ground and in the grass.
Only some small mutant creatures escaped the disaster.
Most of the mutant creatures fled into the flood in panic.
At this moment, Liang Yuan, leading the Black Gold Giant Ape, had reached the riverbank.
The Black Gold Giant Ape stood in the water, the flood submerged its waist. Its giant fan-like hands continuously pounded the river bottom, stirring the water at will.
The commotion it caused quickly attracted some fearless mutant fish that rushed up to bite its arms and legs.
Taking this opportunity, Liang Yuan unleashed a Spirit Shock.
Instantly, numerous small mutant fish died violently.
Some larger mutant fish withstood the Spirit Shock but fell unconscious, floating to the surface.
The Black Gold Giant Ape seized the chance, grabbed the mutant fish, bit off half of one, and then threw it away, grabbing another.
In such coordination, the man and ape madly hunted and caught fish near the riverbank.
Ding Yan, Zhao Kai, and the others saw this and immediately waved their hands.
"Team One, follow me," Ding Yan shouted.
Zhao Kai also ordered, "Team Two, with me!"
Then, Huang Han, Wu Ying, Shi Haizhu, Han Xiangman, and dozens of other team leaders stepped forward, leading their teams to quickly enter the area and begin finishing the task.
On Liang Yuan’s side, mutant creatures concealed in the diving area were continuously killed, and soon the nearby waters were cleared of monsters.
Most of the creatures swam to deeper waters.
Liang Yuan temporarily paused, letting the Black Gold Giant Ape rest and eat some fish.
He quickly took out the Super Alloy Steel Cable and then headed to higher ground.
At about tens of meters high, he found a suitable spot on the mountainside.
He then tunneled into the mountain, choosing a giant rock underground, quickly driving the Super Alloy Steel Cable into it, using the Super Alloy Expansion Nails and other materials he had already extracted.
He then tunneled out of the mountain, dragging the Super Alloy Steel Cable from underground to the surface, leading it toward the riverbank below.
This was to prevent any future rise in water level, as relocating the cable would be troublesome.
So he nailed it at a higher position from the start and then pulled a section down.
In the future, if the water level rose, the cable would be retracted a bit, without affecting the floating bridge’s buoyancy at all.
Liang Yuan pulled the slender steel cable and began crossing the water.
About four kilometers of the water surface was not too far for him.
He dived along the way, killing mutant creatures and laying the steel cable.
The thousands of meters long steel cable was quickly pulled to the opposite Meishan.
He then found a high point on Meishan, tunneled into the mountain, and secured the cable.
Subsequently, he chose another location and pulled another cable back.
The two steel cables were spaced about ten meters apart, making them very spacious.
With the two steel cables set in place, the basic structure of the floating bridge was completed.
He returned to the Yangshan riverbank where the patrolling team members were still finishing up.
The people from the botanical garden, fish farm, and slaughterhouse also came over to help transport the mutant beast corpses.
At this time, Song Wen, Granny Li, Ding Yan, Zhao Kai, and others were called over by Liang Yuan.
Ding Yan wiped his sweat and said, "The Water Marsh Restricted Area has been almost cleared, and there are no dangerous mutant beasts near the riverbank, but I can’t guarantee that there won’t be more mutant beasts climbing up from the water later."
Liang Yuan smiled, "I will arrange the Black Gold Giant Ape to be nearby. Periodically, it will come out to hunt and catch fish."
"Additionally, the patrol team will need to set up a base here later, specializing in maintaining the floating bridge’s safety."
Ding Yan and the others nodded, "It’s fine as long as you have plans. What should we do next?"
Liang Yuan pointed to the two Super Alloy Steel Cables over the water, "The cable structure of the floating bridge is done, now we need to set up the carriers."
Zhao Kai looked at the flood waters and the empty space between the cables and couldn’t help but ask, "Brother Liang, isn’t the floating bridge too wide? Where do we find such wide floating wood to lay it down?"
Ding Yan looked at Liang Yuan, "Liang Yuan, you said earlier you didn’t plan to use wood for the planking, what do you have in mind?"
Liang Yuan smiled and looked at Song Wen, "For the next task, we’ll need to rely on Wenwen."
Song Wen looked at the flood between the two mountains, her gaze suddenly falling on the verdant duckweed floating on the water!
These duckweeds varied in size, some as big as fists, others as large as round tables.
They floated and fluctuated on the water, spreading out over several hundred meters.
