Sha Diao found a certificate issued by the Weirant people to foreigners at his home, with this name written on it, followed by a long surname.
It doesn't matter to him whether it's a real name or a pseudonym, it's just a code name anyway.
He only needs to know that the guy tied to the chair is a member of the Enlightenment Society, and this shabby house hidden in Blackwater Lane is the Enlightenment Society's stronghold in Evernight Port.
This is enough.
After waking up from his coma, Niles raised his heavy eyelids, stared at the guy who was rummaging around in his house, and said in a hoarse voice.
"……who are you?"
"Desert Eagle."
Taking out a jar from the cabinet, Sha Diao looked inside and found that there were several dinars of large denominations inside. His eyes suddenly lit up, and he poured it out and stuffed it into his pocket.
Niles looked at the guy who was stealing in front of him with a dark face, and bit out a sentence from between his teeth.
"...What the hell is that?"
"You should understand it as a code name. I am a resident of Vault 404."
Upon hearing this, Niles's eyes suddenly narrowed and he suddenly grinned.
"Residents of Vault 404... Haha, you chased me really far, reaching as far as the southernmost edge of the desert."
The Desert Eagle chuckled and replied casually.
"I can't help it, our hands are relatively long, please bear with me."
Nilus: "..."
Seeing that he didn't speak, the Desert Eagle continued.
"What about you? Are you still the same as before? You haven't even had your own settlement until now?"
Nilus sneered.
"We don't need that."
Sha Diao raised his eyebrows and asked curiously.
"Oh? Then what do you need."
Nilus: "You don't need to know."
Sha Diao: "Tsk, aren't you just chatting to death?"
As if he realized that this guy was trying to trick him, Niles closed his eyes and stopped talking.
The sand sculpture tried a few words but didn't respond. Then he left him alone and returned his attention to the cabinet in front of him.
However, to his disappointment, he searched through all the cabinets and drawers in the house and found nothing except two hundred dinars.
This stronghold was as crude as a real slum shack, so much so that the sand sculpture couldn't help but wonder if there were any secret passages or secret doors hidden in it.
"...Speaking of which, don't you have that kind of memory extractor at home?" Sha Diao couldn't help but ask as he patted the dust on his hands.
Upon hearing this ridiculous question, Niles snorted and said with a sneer.
"That's contraband from the Era of Prosperity. Do you think it's something from the streets?"
Sha Diao looked at him twice unexpectedly.
"so smart?"
"There are a lot of great things... It's a pity that I'm just a guide. And don't say I don't have it. Even if I have it, why should I tell you?" Niles looked at the guy who wasted his efforts like an idiot, but
He soon realized that he seemed to have missed something by talking too much, and immediately closed his mouth with a pale face.
However, the sand sculpture didn't take it seriously and just lightly shrugged his shoulders.
He could guess with his toes that the guy in front of him was the "guide", and there was no need for the latter to take the initiative to explain.
What he really wants to know is something else.
For example, that "death agent".
Another example is the researcher named Martin.
"...I just think this will make our communication easier. Or do you want me to use more traditional means to pry out the things in your mouth."
Nilus said with a smile.
"If you have the ability, just give it a try."
The Desert Eagle didn't talk nonsense and took out a thumb-sized glass bottle from his pocket.
Niles's pupils shrank slightly, and there was a hint of fear in the slits of his eyes.
Seeing his nervous look, Sha Diao just smiled and said in a soothing tone.
"Don't be nervous. I am a civilized person. Although there are many ways to torture people by searching on the Internet, I will not do it unless it is absolutely necessary."
Although his comfort was sincere, the expression on Niles's face showed no sign of relief, and his Adam's apple was rolling up and down.
"...What is that thing in your hand?"
The sand sculpture did not explain, but walked straight in front of him. With one hand, he grabbed the head that tilted back in fear. With the other hand, he used his thumb to open the cork of the bottle and pointed it toward his nostrils.
He attacked directly.
"...something that can give you a good dream, and it can make you see what you desire most in your heart."
"Wait, wait a minute -"
There was a hint of panic in Niles's eyes, and he struggled desperately to avoid it.
However, in front of more than 30 levels of awakened people, the little strength he struggled with could not even be said to add to the fun.
After pouring some of it into both nostrils of this guy, Sha Diao covered his mouth for a while and made sure he was full before putting away the empty bottle.
He bought the snake oil from the black market, but he didn't expect it to come in handy so quickly.
"This thing should allow him to sleep for five or six hours... Let me think about what to do next..."
Just when Sha Diao was worried, there was a gentle knock on the door.
The rhythm of the knocking on the door was very special, three long and two short, just like some kind of secret code.
Sha Diao immediately cheered up and walked to the door with low footsteps. While holding the door handle, his right hand reached for the pistol with the silencer inserted in his waist.
At the same time, on the other side of the door, Andrew, wearing a raincoat, pressed his face against the crack of the door and spoke in a hoarse voice.
"...My identity may have been exposed. A guy named Morse found me. That guy is the leader of the Hyena Gang. He saw through the identity of my disciple. I suspect that the trap was exposed when we met.
This area seems to be their territory."
"But fortunately, that trash seemed to have misunderstood something and misunderstood the Enlightenment Meeting as something else... something that the garrison made him think."
"I don't know what the other Velant people want to do, but in short, that guy is a problem. Before things get out of hand, we have to find a way to shut him up... It's best to shut up forever."
After saying these words, Andrew quietly waited for the guide's response.
After a moment of waiting, a hoarse voice came from behind the door.
"Come in and talk."
Hearing these words, Andrew was slightly stunned, with a hint of surprise on his face.
He had always passed the news at the door, and Nilus invited him into the house only a handful of times, usually during some secret gathering.
He couldn't make up his mind.
But at this moment, the door in front of him that would never be opened suddenly opened a crack for the first time.
A black muzzle was pointed between his eyebrows, causing him to stop breathing involuntarily.
"You, you are..."
Good guy, the gourd boy really saved grandpa - bah, no, I should have given him a pillow when he felt sleepy.
The sand sculpture didn't say anything nonsense. He smiled ferociously and reached out to grab the collar of "Pillow" and pulled him in directly from the outside.
"Come in, you."

"Wasteland OL" official website.
Just when most people were talking about the war situation in Borneo, a post about Yongye Port suddenly appeared in the eyes of the melon-eaters.
The poster was naturally the one who had the last laugh [Desert Eagle], and the title of the post was also quite eye-catching——
[Big news! The big fish in Yongye Harbor has been found! 】
Desert Eagle: "...I discovered the Enlightenment Society's stronghold in Evernight Port in Blackwater Alley! The person in charge of this stronghold is called Nilus, and his title or position is 'Guide', which is equivalent to the middle level of the Enlightenment Society.
cadre!"
"This guy has a very strict mouth and won't do anything. I gave him snake oil and planned to hang him for two days to see how he was doing. Fortunately, not long after that, a disciple who came to join me sent him to the hospital by himself.
Come to the door."
"According to the clues he gave me, I found a removable tile under the empty water tank in the toilet. There was a ladder underneath. Climb down to the basement. There is an elevator in the basement that reaches five to six hundred meters deep underground.
!”
"What's even more amazing is yet to come! There is actually a subway tunnel from the People's League era under this settlement! Maybe it's not called a subway, but it's something similar."
"I speculated that the Enlightenment Association should transport personnel and equipment to Yongye Port through this tunnel, so I escorted the guy named Andrew straight forward... It's interesting to say that this guy is so cowardly that he has a lot of runny nose.
He begged for mercy with tears. If it weren't for his nose, I wouldn't have believed he was from Willant."
"We encountered a few mutated scorpions on the road, but the number was not very large. They probably spread from the desert. Anyway, after dealing with them, we came to a relatively open area that seemed to be a waiting hall."
"According to the disciple, the disciples of Yongye Port hold gatherings here regularly, and the time of the gathering is mainly decided by the guide, and the time of the next gathering has not yet been determined."
"I'm thinking about sending out a false message in the name of Niles to wipe out all the enlightenment groups in Yongye Port. Maybe I can find the guy named Martin... But these are extraordinary times, and Niles is still in a coma.
Come on, I’m afraid this matter needs to be discussed in the long run.”
"Putting this matter aside for now, what's more surprising is that I found a lot of information in the stronghold. There are personnel files, inventory lists, and even some professional documents that I can't understand."
"Although I really want to send the content of the file here, unfortunately I cannot translate many proper nouns, and there is no relevant reserve in the VM's offline language library. I am afraid that I will have to send it to the backend if I type word by word.
Years have passed. However, from some fragments of words, I can see words like 'experiment' and 'virus', which should be related to 'death agent'."
"To make an immature assumption, maybe the Enlightenment Society found that restarting the world through neutron killing was impossible, so they changed their original strategy and planned to use viruses modified by genetic technology to achieve their goals... However, what is confusing is that,
This approach is obviously extremely risky for themselves."
"Or have they made breakthrough progress in the biological field, and related progress has allowed them to master some kind of technology that we don't understand? I don't know, that Andrew was also confused. He frankly admitted that he joined the Enlightenment Society just because
Women and money.”
"This kind of person should be easy to bribe, so I pulled out the files about him from the archives, wrote down his home address in front of him, and then let him go."
"It's also worth mentioning that the keyword 'apocalypse' appeared many times in the reports I found in the archives. I tried searching for related terms in the terminal, but I didn't find much
Valuable clues.”
"I can only try to understand...that Apocalypse should be a senior figure in the Enlightenment Society. For some reason, the leadership of their leader 'Guixu' has been weakened, or perhaps with the tacit approval of Guixu himself, this
Apocalypse’s opinions have become the guiding opinions for the implementation of tasks at the grassroots level of some Enlightenment Associations.”
"I have copied the electronic documents stored in the terminal to the vm and can share them at any time. However, Yongye Port is currently in a special period. The Weilant troops have blocked the entire settlement. It may be difficult to escape.
Difficulty. I plan to stay there and continue to observe for a while...perhaps I can find an exit to the outside of the settlement from the collapsed tunnel."
"The above is the information I investigated in Yongye Port. If anyone can give me a smooth sailing back to Jingallan Port for business, I would be very grateful!"
After the post was posted, dozens of replies quickly popped up.
Among them, there were those who urged me to update, some who flattered me, and of course there were also some who were exasperated and shouted "f*ck!"
Taran Raider: "Damn it! Wait, why did you receive the mission too?!"
Junichiro Kokawa: "Are you surprised or surprised? (Funny)"
Medical Miracle: "You don't follow martial ethics!"
Pickled Fish: "MMP! Boss! Our mission has been interrupted! (Shocked)"
Medical Miracle: "Boss, can you do it?"
Angry Fatty Liver: "Oh, my sacrifice was in vain."
Taran Raider: "?? What the hell? Your guns are pointing at the wrong person. We are in the same group! (angry)"
Junichiro Kokawa: "It's so real. (Funny)"
Fang Chang: "Actually, you don't need to be excited. Normally, as long as the task is finally completed, no matter who completes it through what method, the person who receives the task will receive a reward. However, the proportion of the reward will be different depending on how they promote the progress of the task.
It’s just different. (Squints and smiles)”
Commander Quanshui: "+1, and your mission hasn't been completed yet. This can only be considered a stage result. It's too early to be happy now. Are you considering forming a team? I think you guys cooperate well. (
funny)"
Taran Raider: "There is a tacit understanding with the hammer. I am bleeding and sweating in the front, but this guy is just hiding behind and taking advantage."
Desert Eagle: "Tsk, you are so embarrassed to say that you bleed and sweat, is it fun to be walked by NPC? (rolls eyes)"
Taran Raider: "MMP! I won't bullshit you anymore...send me the coordinates of your stronghold. The Weirant people are starting to search the city. Let me hide for a while."
Desert Eagle: "I've sent you a private message. I'm short of someone here. If it's convenient, get me some snake oil. I'll figure out how to pry open that Nilus' mouth."
Taran Raider: "I'll think of a way...ah, by the way, where's that Morse, have you seen him?"
Desert Eagle: "Dead."
Taran, who was sitting in front of the computer, was slightly startled, and his hand on the keyboard stopped.
died……
Although it was an expected thing, he still felt a little empty when he heard the guy's ending.
There are no living legends in Evernight Harbor.
Maybe that guy, like Kant, also went to become a governor on a certain star...

(Thanks to the leader of "CaptPaterno" for the reward!!! Happy National Day, brothers! I'm almost done with my cold. I forgot about the Mid-Autumn Festival when I was typing at home. I updated 8,000 words the day before yesterday. I'm over the chapter today, so I'll take half a day off to go back.
