Before entering Jinchuan Province, Chu Guang thought that the problem might be more serious than he imagined, but he did not expect that it had deteriorated to such an extent.
The entire Haiya Province has entered the fourth stage of Naguo Corruption and has completely become a country shrouded in plague.
The tragedy that happened at Pinecone Farm was just a 03 number there. As long as the forerunners and the Holy Son in the Holy Realm have that idea, they can make any settlement in the parish what they want at any time.
In fact, the people there have become puppets who have lost their consciousness.
"If it is true as they say, this issue may be quite difficult in both a scientific and political sense."
In holographic image.
After listening to Chu Guang's retelling of the academy's research conclusions, Heya turned off the power with a solemn expression, lost in thought, and did not speak again for a long time.
The same goes for Chu Guang.
After a long time, he sighed with a headache and said.
"Blocking off the Haiyia Province is a compromise, but maybe the problem will be worse if we delay it. And it's a pity that we don't have that many manpower, and we don't have enough people to mobilize the entire alliance."
Hea asked softly.
"What about the businesses? Aren't they going to do anything?"
"On things that have no return, their efficiency is directly proportional to the cost. Only when the problem is serious enough that they have to do something, will they really make up their minds."
The heirs are those on the East Coast.
To be honest, it is very pleasant to do business with corporate guys. As long as the returns are generous enough and core interests are not involved, they don't mind letting their partners take advantage. After all, favors are also an investment.
However, it would be naive to expect them to respond to major crises.
The Legion tore up the contract from a century and a half ago and almost penetrated the Sunset Province. The Supreme Council also said harsh words. It was not until the Alliance captured the Heart of Steel that these harsh words came to the fore.
Aboard the Heart of Steel.
Chu Guang has already won the support of the council through Yi Chuan, and a batch of valuable aid is on its way.
However, Chu Guang himself felt that this request was simply a fantasy if he expected the company to help blockade a province that was thousands of kilometers away from the ideal city.
…
Can we only use nuclear bombs?" Hea said with a complicated expression.
"I can't think of a better way at the moment, but we must at least solve the immediate problem first. Li Shao, Jinhe City and Jinchuan Province can still be saved.
As he spoke, Chu Guang looked at the porthole on the side of the captain's cabin. The gray mist-filled land loomed behind the floating clouds.
Currently, only this piece of land in the entire Jinchuan Province has been corroded by Naguo. After all, the ruins of Singularity City were once located here, and there are a lot of survivors and settlements there.
There are many uninhabited areas in the wasteland. There may not be a single settlement for dozens of miles. Occasionally, there are a few families, and they all live like savages.
In that kind of uninhabited land, it is difficult to raise the erosion level of Naguo to the second stage just by relying on the natural spread of animals.
It can be said that the plague called "Naguo" designed by the Torch Church is simply tailor-made for the vast majority of survivor settlements in the wasteland.
Noticing the complicated look in He Ya's eyes, Chu Guang suddenly thought of something, so he said in an Angan tone.
"Don't have too much psychological burden. Maybe your master Kallen was just bewitched or coerced by those people. These things may not be caused by her."
Although after meeting that Luo Gan, he felt that this possibility was very small.
Those people firmly believe in what they are doing, and even if they hesitate, it is only due to conscience and hesitation about the means, rather than doubt about the final result.
They really believed it——
That world is a Utopia greater than the Age of Prosperity.
"No need to comfort me, I will ask her myself about this matter."
"Hea took a deep breath and adjusted her emotions.
At this moment, she suddenly thought of something, looked at Chu Guang and raised her eyebrows, and dropped the topic in a teasing tone.
"Speaking of which, you haven't solved your own headache yet, but you have comforted me."
Chu Guang said with a smile, not caring about her teasing.
"You are our chief biologist. Without you, a lot of work would not be possible."
"Stop praising me. There are many people with more experience than me." Hea rolled his eyes, but felt as sweet as honey in his heart.
It is a pleasant thing for anyone to have their hard work recognized, and she is certainly no exception.
Feeling that she was in a better mood, Chu Guang smiled and nodded.
"Knowledge and experience can be accumulated slowly. They are irreplaceable for the alliance. Your basic situation is what I just said. Just call me here. It's getting late. Go to bed early."
Hea curled her lips.
"The same goes for you. You just finished the trouble in Boulder City and then you went to Jinchuan Province again. Don't tire yourself out."
Chu Guang laughed.
"Don't worry, my body is still quite strong. It's not like you don't know it."
Do not know why.
This guy who always liked to make fun of him for not being a human being turned red inexplicably and disappeared from the holographic image with a sigh...
...
A pure white virtual space, the ceiling exudes warm white light.
Some flowers and plants have grown on the white floor
Grass, but those grass blades are all white, swaying illusively in the room where there is no wind.
The crystal clear outline is like a corpse flower blooming on a corpse...
Standing in the center of the room, Jiang Xuezhou looked around and quickly saw the girl sitting in the corner with her knees in her arms.
There was no expression on her face, she just sat there quietly, staring at the floor in front of the toes of her shoes, as if thinking about something.
Jiang Xuezhou hesitated for a while, and finally decided to greet her with a normal opening remarks.
"How are you?"
Yinyin raised her head and looked at her, nodding slowly.
"Well, I'm fine. I'm just a little confused."
"Doubts?" Jiang Xuezhou put his hands on his knees, leaned down and said in a soft tone, "My name is Jiang Xuezhou, I am a researcher at the college. Can you tell me your doubts? Maybe I can help you answer them.
"It's not impossible," Yin Jun rested his head on the invisible wall behind him and stared at the strange sister in front of him, "The elder brother called the manager told me that Grandpa Luo Gan put this strange The gate of the house was given to me, allowing me to come back to life who was supposed to be dead, but..."
There was a hint of confusion in those bright eyes, and Yin Yin tilted her head unconsciously and said something completely inconsistent with her age.
"What am I?"
What is it?
Jiang Xuezhou was stunned for a moment and said subconsciously.
"Of course you are..."
"It's Zhao Yinyin, I know my name," Junjun interrupted her and sighed softly, her expression seemed a little troubled, "But I don't know, who I am now.
Is it me or the me in that grandfather’s memory?”
Jiang Xuezhou's eyes were straight as he looked at Yin Yin who was sitting in the corner, his mouth slightly open, and it was hard to believe that these were words that an eight-year-old girl would say.
As if seeing the surprise on her face, Yin Junmu smiled sheepishly and drove the troubled expression away from her face.
"I'm sorry for saying some strange things. This is my personal trouble. Please don't take it to heart."
Jiang Xuezhou didn't know how to answer, so he could only nodded lightly.
"We will help you get out of here as soon as possible, please give us some time."
"Well, I believe you, if you can go out and play
Okay, Xiaoyang and I have made an appointment to play hide and seek together." A smile bloomed on Yin Yin's face, as if the previous troubles didn't exist at all, she changed the topic, "You have something to do with me, right? Okay. Tell Yin bacteria that it is
What's the matter?"
Jiang Xuezhou nodded with some shame.
"Well, I do have something to ask you. This can save many people's lives. Of course, you can refuse if you don't want to, as long as you tell me the part you know."
Just tell me the truth."
She thought it would take some time for this little girl to open up to her, but to her surprise, Yin Jun nodded generously and looked at her with a smile.
"No problem, I'll tell you everything I know, just ask!"
She didn't want to repeat the mistakes she made because of not being honest.
She has understood it after dying once.
Jiang Xuezhou looked at the little girl blankly, and when he came to his senses, Jiang Xuezhou blushed and hurriedly said "thank you" and began to ask.
In fact, before coming here, she had already learned about the relevant information and research on Naguo from her mentor.
This inquiry is mainly focused on some basic information about Pinecone Wood Farm, including some of the patient's behaviors in the early stages of infection, changes in the overall atmosphere of the entire settlement, etc.
She tried her best to state the relevant questions in a way that children could understand, and Yinjun also gave honest answers after listening.
After asking the last question, Jiang Xuezhou held her chin and fell into deep thought. Jun Yin, who was looking at her intently, suddenly spoke in a pleasant voice.
"You are very similar to that sister."
Jiang Xuezhou was stunned for a moment and stopped thinking.
"That sister?"
"Yeah." Yinyin nodded slightly and looked at her with bright eyes, "A sister asked about this before.
Regarding these questions, she seems to be a doctor from the alliance, the sister who often checks Xiaoyang's health.
Doctor?
Although he felt a little strange, Jiang Xuezhou didn't take it to heart. He nodded and said thank you, then waved goodbye to Yin Jun.
Heart of Steel's infirmary.
Standing next to the fully enclosed freezing chamber, Xiaoyang looked at Jiang Xuezhou who had taken off the neural connection device with a worried look, and asked in a low voice.
"Is Yinyin okay?"
Putting the neural connection device on the table beside him, Jiang Xuezhou cast a soft gaze at the little sheep and said.
"She is a little lonely, can you please spend more time with her?"
The little sheep nodded sensibly.
"Well, I will stay with Junjun and tell her what's going on outside until she wakes up."
Looking at that well-behaved look, Jiang Xuezhou couldn't help but raise the corners of his lips, stretched out his right hand and touched her little head lovingly.
"So good."
Looking at the crescent-shaped eyelashes and the glowing smile, she felt that the fatigue and unhappiness of the day had been cured.
hateful!
I really want to keep one!
But she was just thinking about it, and had no real intention to take the little girl back to the Wandering Swamp.
Although the college has extremely wealthy material conditions, it is only for the researchers of the college. For ordinary people who cannot generate "value other than production", it is a completely different matter.
In the settlements managed by the Science and Technology Committee, although the average survivor will not starve to death, they can only guarantee basic survival nutrition. Apart from fighting a way out in the only assessment, there is basically no hope of change.
.
She heard that there are a few settlements that implement governance methods outside of the rules of the Science Quarterly Conference. Mainly families of senior researchers live there, and the purpose is to ensure that excellent genes and thinking patterns can be passed on to the next generation.
But she was just a D-class researcher, and she couldn't even send her own family members there, let alone people who were completely unrelated.
After the visit to Yin Jun ended, Jiang Xuezhou retreated from the ward and gently took the
opened the door.
However, as soon as she came out of the door, she saw a certain disgusting guy, her whole face suddenly fell, and she crossed her arms and stared at him with cold eyes.
"I came here with the manager's permission."
Taking two steps back from the murderous aura that was visible to the naked eye, Ye Shi scratched the back of his head in embarrassment and said.
"I know.
"Then what are you doing here?" Jiang Xuezhou pointed to his chin slightly and said with cold eyes, "Do you have to say that? I have no interest in remembering the tatters you made. It's better to steal your skills than face them.
Paramecium is in a daze--"
"sorry."
"..."
He didn't expect this guy to apologize at all. Jiang Xuezhou couldn't help but paused in the middle of his harsh words and looked at him in slight shock.
Ye Shi's eyes drifted to one side and he was too embarrassed to look at her face.
Because it's really embarrassing.
He also just got it from the mission system
You know, this guy came here with her guide to help.
It was when I was in Dawn City.
Not only did he suspect that she was a conspirator, but he also asked her why she was just thinking about it now. What she said was indeed inappropriate, at least he shouldn't have said it to her freely.
Before logging off, he received a look from his sister. He hesitated for a moment, and finally crawled out of the dormant cabin, deciding to explain the matter clearly before exiting.
"I said some very outrageous things before. I can't lie to people and say that was not my intention, because I did think so at the time. I thought it triggered a hidden mission or something. But please allow me to take those words back, no.
The investigation revealed that it was my fault for jumping to conclusions, which is why there was such a big misunderstanding."
At this point, he was a little unconvinced and felt as if he had given up, so he couldn't help but add in a low voice.
"Of course, this is not entirely my answer. Just say no to whatever you are here for. Guigui Chongchong also asked me to take you around and tell you about secrets and tasks. I not only
I can think wrongly.
Jiang Xuezhou stared at him for a while, then suddenly burst into laughter.
Ye Shi raised his head dissatisfied.
"Why are you laughing? I'm being serious, okay?"
He thought this guy would restrain himself, but he didn't expect her to laugh even louder.
"Ah hahaha! It's nothing. Since you are rarely so candid, I'll just pretend that the unpleasantness never happened?"
Raising his right hand to lift the ponytail on his shoulder behind him, Jiang Xuezhou suppressed his arrogant nostrils and raised the corners of his mouth slightly instead.
"It's actually quite interesting. This is the first time I've been
When I sent him to the bureau, I was scolded by my instructor after I went there."
In fact, it didn't matter that she was scolded, but she felt a little sorry for causing trouble to too many unrelated people. Later, the city lord of Dawn City came to the trouble.
When I go back, I'll send a letter of thanks to everyone at the Shuguang City Security Station.
Seeing Jiang Xuezhou regaining his energy, Ye Shi breathed a sigh of relief, and his usual silly smile appeared on his face.
"Then the misunderstanding has been resolved. If you have any tasks - I mean if you have any trouble or worries, you can come to me. I will go back first."
Seeing Ye Shi turning around to leave, Jiang Xuezhou subconsciously called out to him.
"Wait a moment!"
Ye Shi stopped and turned around to cast a doubtful look at her.
"Is there anything else?
"Um......"
Jiang Xuezhou looked at the end of the ponytail wrapped with his fingertips in embarrassment, and said sheepishly.
"You know that my mentor and I are here to solve the fruit collection problem, right? Because we D-levels are mainly responsible for the investigation outside, so there may be more occasions for attendance. Although, although I am also very strong and serious,
If you get up, it's no problem to single out one or two hundred awakened people, but when you bring tea and water, a miscellaneous group of people
It would be nice if I could have someone help me with some chores."
Seeing that the guy listened for a long time and didn't say anything at all, Jiang Xuezhou gritted his teeth angrily and said the words completely in a self-defeating manner.
"Anyway, anyway...if you're not busy, could you please help me?"
Harmful.
Just such a small thing!
After listening to her talk for a long time, Ye Shi finally understood and smiled heartily.
"Leave it to me! Although I can't help with serving tea and doing chores, I can still protect you! Don't worry, as long as I'm still alive, I won't let you get hurt at all."
Unexpectedly, a straight ball was suddenly thrown at him. Xiao Jiang was stunned for a moment, but quickly came to his senses, and his whole face instantly turned red into an apple.
"You, you, please be mentally prepared. I will not be merciful when I order people... Remember to write a suicide note!"
After stammering a string of incoherent words, Jiang Xuezhou ran away like a frightened rabbit like a gust of wind.
When she finally came to her senses, she found that she was already standing in the bathroom of her room, with water spraying from the flower wine rushing onto her face.
Jiang Xuezhou regretfully wanted to punch himself, but he still didn't have the heart to do it, and finally the fist hit the bathroom wall.
Ahhhh!
What stupid things have I said!
She wished she could find a crack in the wall and hide herself in it.
Different from the remorseful Xiao Jiang, this certain person didn't care about that unlucky "cruel words" at all, and didn't even take it seriously at all.
Just kidding, who can be more venomous than him?
He could utter a bunch of more insulting words and even make them into a poem. Even Fang Chang, the most eloquent person, was no match for him. He could only roll his eyes and shut up and play the game.
He's not bragging.
As a Zaun player, he has never lost a battle with his mouth.
What really puzzled Ye Shi was another thing.
Watching the NPC's back, he took out the VM, took a look at it, opened the taskbar, and scratched the back of his head.
"Weird."
Didn't the task trigger yesterday?
Logically speaking, being a bodyguard for the academy's "special researcher" can be considered a hidden mission.
Ye Shi couldn't help but feel a twinge in his heart.
This stupid planner must have forgotten about me.
The little sheep hiding by the crack of the door quietly hid his head and imitated the big brother's actions and scratched the back of his head.
She just heard someone arguing in the corridor, and she wanted to see what was going on, and then she saw a scene that confused her.
Although I don’t understand what they are saying at all, I always feel that they are very powerful.
The long night finally passed, and as dawn rose from the horizon, the gray sky also lit up with a flash of white.
No matter how thick the fog on the ground is, it can't block the sun that rises as usual. Even if the warm sunshine is blocked by bad weather, it can't block the desire and yearning of all things for the sun.
On the distant horizon, the outlines of armored fighting vehicles emerged from the billowing dust.
The torrent of murderous steel, carrying grenadiers with cool patches on their breastplates, advanced in a straight line towards Jinhe City with high morale.
Since the end of the war in Luoxia Province, each regiment has had a lot of time to rest or fish. So under the coaxing of all the good guys, each regiment has designed their own regimental emblems and printed them on their outer bones as paint.
On the breastplate or shoulder armor of the arm.
Skeleton Corps, the emblem is naturally a skeleton.
Of course, during this period of rest, the brothers of the Skeleton Corps did not do anything else besides painting.
The "Chimera" wheeled infantry fighting vehicle dispatched in this operation was jointly designed by the players of the Skeleton Corps and the engineers of Goblin Komo.
This was summed up in previous wars with the Legion) experience - the Alliance's armored forces needed a fast, light vehicle that could carry light infantry to keep up with the pace of the tanks.
[By the way, the best app for reading and listening to books is Yeguo Reading, www.yeguoyuedu.com a> Install the latest version.】
In previous wars with the legion, the infantry of the Kugi Corps usually sat on armed trucks, but the maneuverability of that thing was so poor that it was basically a dumpling with the fillings exposed. If there was a real fight, veteran players would rather
I don't want to run behind a tank, but I don't want to sit on that thing and be praised.
Therefore, "Chimera" came into being.
Its design refers to the Legion's "Mustache" reconnaissance vehicle.
The six pairs of road wheels and the front layout of the power cabin imitate the real Z551.
In addition to a driver and gunner, the trunk can also accommodate six light infantrymen wearing fully protective exoskeletons.
The roof turret is equipped with a 37 rapid-fire gun with the same type of ammunition as an aviation cannon. The turret is also equipped with a "pigeon" missile launcher, which can pose a certain threat to heavy vehicles and large targets.
However, although this armored vehicle has built-in space, most of these veteran players are used to riding in trucks and cannot stand the closed space.
One or two of them had seats but sat on top of the sports car.
not only that.
Even though there are only a few kilometers away from the battlefield, there is no trace of fear on any of the faces. All that can be seen is unbearable hunger and thirst——
"I'm ready to kill twenty-two of them! Is there any opening?"
"Haha, what Chimera kills doesn't count!"
"Tch, do I need to rely on that thing?"
"If you are captured alive by mutants, don't call daddy to save you."
"I want it!"
"Damn, do you have any backbone!"
"Ha ha ha ha!"
The shelling of the Heart of Steel will begin promptly at eight o'clock in the morning.
Whether it was the 37 rapid-fire cannon of the armored vehicle or the rifle that hit their shoulders, they were all loaded at this moment.
Leaning half of his body from the turret of the armored vehicle, Yan Shu held a telescope in his hand and looked at the abandoned city looming in the fog.
Ahead is Jinhe City!
Throwing down the telescope and taking out the speaker, he raised his voice and shouted excitedly.
"brothers--!"
“Ahead is the Qi tribe’s lair!!!
"A group of guys who eat people but don't spit out bones are holding a village party and singing songs. They don't even realize what they have gotten into!"
"Let those green-skinned beasts take a good look at whether their incisors and bones are stronger, or whether our tracks and gun barrels are stronger!"
Someone shouted inappropriately.
"Boss! We came in an armored vehicle! There are no tracks!"
Ignoring the troublemaker, the agitated Mole continued to shout at the top of his lungs.
"Skeleton Corps! Advance--!"
"Throw death in their faces—!"
The hour hand of the watch was aligned with eight o'clock. The sound of the cannon overhead sounded as scheduled!
Under the deafening sound of cannons, he was responded to by powerful shouts.
