p.r.i.c.kly Pear Town had neatly positioned street lights in the center at night. Meanwhile, the other areas made it seem like a small town that had not been fully developed, like one in the earlier centuries.

It was tranquil, peaceful, and full of life.

Looking at the town from the window during the daytime, Su Mo felt a little surprised.

Countless people surged back and forth, creating a lively scene on the cement roads between houses.

Flowers bloomed on both sides of the roads, exuding a pleasing fragrance when blown by the wind.

!!

However, these were not why Su Mo was stunned.

The various vehicles and auxiliary equipment worn by the pedestrians everywhere within his field of sight caught his attention at once.

“Xiaojuan, that…what is that?”

Su Mo pointed curiously to a few vehicles that resembled the tricycles on Earth.

In the 1990s, It was the primary transportation means at railway station entrances. It was usually used to pull goods, and when there were plenty of people, it could also be used to carry people in carriages at the rear.

In the 2010s, it was the favorite big toy of the older men in the countryside. Before electric cars conquered the market, almost everyone had one of these vehicles.

This vehicle’s shape was commonly seen in many places in Huaxia.

The difference was that tricycles on Earth relied on either manual pedals or engines for power.

The tricycles here seemed to have combined both aspects.

Although there were pedals under the person’s feet, who was riding in the front, they would only need to pedal slightly for the tricycle to advance about three to five meters in an instant. It looked effortless to maneuver them.

“Huh? Youzong, that’s a convi tricycle. It’s the most common vehicle in the wasteland. Didn’t we also buy one before? It’s still in the garage right now. Did you forget about it?”

“Convi tricycle?” Su Mo’s eyes flashed with doubt.

“I remember a lot of things vaguely, and a lot of my memories are overlapping with those of on earth…

“How is it possible for this convi tricycle to move so far by pedaling a little? Is there a built-in motor?”

After realizing that everything had some “mysterious technology,” Su Mo simply admitted to losing his memory.

Initially, he thought that after eight years, human technology would only be able to on the road to reviving its prime on Earth at most.

However, not it seems that things have developed far more than his imagination.

The humans of the future wasteland had created a new technological path of their own!

Su Mo gave some lame explanations to conceal the difference in speech and personality between himself and the original body’s owner.

Fortunately, Huang Xiaojuan was very gullible and did not question why he had lost his memory. In fact, she even blamed everything abnormal on his amnesia, so Su Mo was relieved.

“The convi tricycle is a new vehicle developed in Year 3 of the Doomsday Calendar. Although it looks like an ordinary tricycle from Earth, it’s much more functional.

“The tires are made of high-strength rubber and some other special materials. It can travel on flat roads and be used on complicated flat roads in the wilderness as it has anti-skid, wear-resistant, and explosion-proof features.

“The frame is made of entry-level alloy, which is just enough to withstand normal impacts and prevent corrosion.

“The most impressive thing about it is the one you’ve just mentioned…”

Huang Xiaojuan pointed to a box on the tricycle, and her face lit up. “The convi tricycle is equipped with an energy stone engine. With its help, the front medals don’t feel much resistance.

“The pedal acts pretty much like an accelerator. The faster you pedal, the more energy the energy stone engine will release, allowing it to travel faster. So, if you pedal slowly, the energy stone engine will release less energy, and the speed would be correspondingly lower.”

“Energy stone engine?”

Su Mo caught on to a key term and was slightly shocked. The energy stone engine he removed from the climbing car and stored in his storage s.p.a.ce instantly popped into his mind.

The current energy stone engine matched the description of Lu Kuan and Ai Jianfeng’s future development plans when they developed the energy stone engine.

It was small, had wide applications, and was incredibly simple to use to output energy.

‘Could it be that my territory developed this energy stone engine? Has Lu Kuan made innovations in the past eight years?’

“Yup. This thing is costly. An entry-level energy stone engine costs about two hundred resource points. Ordinary people might be unable to afford one even if they starved for a year.

“Higher-level energy stone engines cost even more points to purchase. Even p.r.i.c.kly Pear Town’s mayor uses a Level One energy stone engine on his rhino combat vehicle.”

‘This has to be from us.’

Hearing the description of the power output, performance, and different prices for different level energy stone engines, Su Mo was almost a hundred percent sure that it was from his territory.

After all, energy stones are the only thing that could be cla.s.sified according to purity and size.

Su Mo grasped a clearer understanding of the wasteland eight years later through Huang Xiaojuan.

“Heaven’s Origin is the only territory capable of manufacturing energy stone engines in the New World.

“As one of the top ten territories, they are famous for their strong industrial production foundation and strong resource reserves. Their territory takes up most areas from the eastern coast to the central mountains.

“They are stronger than p.r.i.c.kly Pear Town. No, they are stronger than our entire Green Fruit Territory!”

Huang Xiaojuan added some of her own opinions to the conversation and stuck her tongue playfully.
