Chapter 980 Spin

[Children of the future, has the world returned to normal?

Although I can't wait for the day when everything gets better, I hope you can see it for me.

There is a safe under the bed in the master bedroom. The password is my birthday, which is in my diary... I put all the most valuable things there.

Now I hand it over to you, hoping that you can use it for post-war reconstruction. This is my wish.

——Cleister Alley]

Perhaps their hard work paid off. Feng Qing and Gui Gui, who had turned over an unknown underground complex but failed to gain anything, finally discovered the above information in a shop that had been converted into a private shelter.

This line of text was written on a card, like a letter sent to the future.

However, when they finally found the legendary safe and tried their best to find Naked's birthday from a diary and opened the box, they were both dazzled by the golden light.

Blind.

"Damn it! Gold! Why is it gold!!!" Gui Gui's expression was surprised at first, but he soon realized that this was not reality but a wasteland, and he kicked the folding bed next to him angrily.

Feng Qing also had a subtle expression.

"Emmm... Although it's emotionally difficult to accept it, it seems reasonable?"

I heard that the total population in the People's Federation era was tens of billions. Coupled with the prosperity of the aerospace and electronic industries and people's need for wealth preservation in a high-growth economic environment, gold at that time should still be quite valuable.

But now...

All walks of life and the population have shrunk too much.

Of course, gold is still more expensive than silver and copper, otherwise the Valantians would not use it as currency. However, the scarcity of this thing is definitely not as good as before.

"About eight kilograms...it should be no problem to exchange it for 10,000 dinars."

Guigui, who was squatting next to the suitcase, finished measuring the weight of the gold, sighed and put the gold into his backpack. Ten thousand dinars can be exchanged for two to three thousand silver coins, which is actually quite a lot.

It's just that the greater the expectations, the greater the disappointment.



Anyway, he has left us what he thinks is the most valuable thing." Feng Qing patted Gui Gui's shoulder comfortingly and said with a smile.

"In short, the mission is completed, and no alien nest has been found... We can go back and report." The two returned along the original road.

However, just as he was about to board the escalator, a slight noise suddenly came from the shadow not far away.

The sound was like shoes stepping on a dusty floor. Although it was only a weak "creak", it still did not escape their ears.

Feng Qing almost reflexively loaded the rifle in his hand, raised the muzzle and aimed at the direction of the sound. "Who is there!"

The air was quiet for a while.

Just as their hearts were pounding, an unshaven old man walked out from under the half-collapsed steel support with his hands raised. He looked slovenly, wearing canvas trousers with many pockets and a jacket draped over his body.

He was also carrying a woven bag and a short crossbow, just like the scavengers that can be seen everywhere in the wasteland.

"Don't shoot..."

Perhaps knowing that he had no chance of winning, the old man put the woven bag and weapons on the ground and looked at the two girls standing by the escalator warily.

Seeing that he put down his weapon on his own initiative, Feng Qing also lowered the muzzle of the gun and flashlight in his hands, and asked in a questioning tone, "Who are you?"

The old man stared at her intently, looked at the gun in her hand, glanced at her nose, and then said in a hoarse voice.

"The survivors of Avent City, the demon named Julius occupied our home, and we ran here from the surface... Are you? The children of the survivors? Or the children of the devil?"

Feng Qing and Gui Gui were stunned for a moment after hearing this, exchanging confused glances with each other, and then looked at the old man. "The survivors of Yavent City...which year are you referring to?"

The old man frowned.

"What year? What do you mean."

Sensing that the topic between the two parties was showing signs of cross-server communication, Feng Qing said with a subtle expression. "It is now the year 215 of the Wasteland Era. The Julius you are talking about...\n.\n.\n.\n.

\nShould he have been dead for a century?" She didn't remember the exact number of years, because after all, it was the history of the Weiland people.

"A, century?"

The unshaven old man was stunned for a moment and stared blankly at the two young girls in front of him. Suddenly he thought of something again and hurriedly asked.

"Are the Weiland people still there?" Gui Gui nodded.

"They are still there, but they were defeated by us. The legion has become history... After all this time, don't you feel anything at all?"

The old man stared blankly at the "enemy of the enemy" in front of him, and for a moment he didn't know what to say. After a long time, he said with a wry smile.

"Most of us are hibernating in the hibernation cabin, about ten or twenty thousand people. Of course, this is not a serious shelter after all. There are only a few backup generators, so someone has to guard it outside.

"

After a pause, the old man continued.

"We usually keep about 100 people, and at least 50 people are responsible for maintaining facilities and regular inspections to prevent others from waking up again, and also to prevent the Weirant people from finding us... The rotation time is about

Once every five years.”

Guigui looked at him in surprise.

"20,000 people?! Wait, can we hide 20,000 people here?! Then what do you usually eat?" Feng Qing was obviously confused, with her mouth open and speechless.

The old man grinned and said nonchalantly.

"You don't need to eat when you are sleeping. Those who are awake can just raise some mushrooms and make some nutritional paste to fool around. Some of us are responsible for food and some are responsible for picking up garbage. As for electricity, there is not a shortage here. We use commercial-grade nuclear batteries.

Will suffice."

As he spoke, he turned his attention to the underground commercial complex nearby.

"This is probably the second time I woke up. I usually scavenge in this area.\n.\n.\n.\n.\nActually, I don't know how long I slept and how much time has passed outside.

The management here is very chaotic, and life is also a mess. Waking time is like being in jail. The only hope is to work for five years and then go to sleep. But I just closed my eyes and woke up again when I opened them."

"The brother who tapped me on the shoulder told me whether it was 50 or 40 years outside. He actually didn't remember clearly, and he didn't even remember how many rounds he had changed. Not to mention, I didn't feel it at all.

.At that time, all I could think of in my mind was "Damn it." To me, not even a second of the past forty or fifty years has passed!"

"But I'm still very happy. At least I got Julius to death, right? Thank you, this is the best news I've ever heard in my life."

As he spoke, the old man laughed to himself.

Maybe he shouldn't confess these things, and he has even violated the rules of the city of Avente. But to be honest, he feels a little tired of his mission.

How many times can he hibernate at his age?

Or to put it another way, is it necessary for him to continue hibernating?

When he closes and opens his eyes, everything remains the same, and then he has to live for another five years. Whether he sleeps or not, he may only have 50 years left to live in his life.

And just for these 50 years, just to continue this aimless time travel, they gave up family affection, love, friendship... and everything that a human being should have, and stopped reproducing.

It's like a collective slow suicide.

Instead of worrying about who to wake up and live like a mouse, it would be better to give everyone a relief. More than once, he wanted to turn off the power and become a real "gravekeeper".

He even believed that anyone who woke up more than twice would definitely think so. So he spoke out these things without any scruples.

He even had a vague expectation in his heart, hoping that these outsiders could do for him what he couldn't do - to end everyone's suffering.

Feng Qing was silent for a while, looked at the old man, and said in a soft voice, "What's your name?"

The old man shrugged.

"Robin? If I remember correctly." Feng Qing nodded and continued patiently.

"The city of Avente is now not only home to the Wilante people, but also some of the children of your former neighbors... Times have changed, and they have changed many times."

"Although the world may be destroyed,... we still plan to live every remaining day well. If you want to come out, we will find a way to help you. Of course... if you want to stay here

, we won’t stop it.”

The old man looked at Feng Qing blankly, and was stunned for a long time before slowly speaking. "The world... is destroyed?"

"It's just possible," Feng Qing nodded, "the strategic weapons in synchronous orbit fell into the hands of some bad people... It's very troublesome to explain in detail, so you can just understand it like this."

"That... is really a disaster," the old man laughed bitterly and scratched the back of his head, "I'm not studying aerospace... I don't really understand that stuff. Maybe some of my compatriots will understand."

There was nothing he couldn't accept about the end of the world. After all, he had already experienced that kind of thing once in his life.

Feng Qing and Gui Gui looked at each other, then looked at the old man again and asked, "Then do you want to consider going out?"

The old man hesitated.

"I have to discuss it with other people...Of course, I still want to see the surface."

If what these two little girls said is true, the world will probably be destroyed soon, and it seems that there is really no point in them lingering here.

At least……

He wanted to die in a more spacious place.

As for the hatred with the Wilrants, the hatred with Julius, and the recovery of the city of Avente... we can talk about those things later.

His mind is very confused now and he has no time to think about those things.

After putting away the rifle and hanging it next to his backpack, Gui Gui volunteered and looked at the old man and said, "Let's go with you."

The old man did not refuse and nodded. "Let's come together."

[Mission report: No alien nest was found under No. 17 Street in Aventur City, but the remains of a commercial complex from the pre-war era were found. There were more than 20,000 hibernators in the area. According to one of the survivors, they were from the Julius period.

The aborigines of the city of Avente fled underground to escape the scourge of war. Now the locals have decided to return to the surface. More than 20,000 hibernators are gradually awakening, and some of the survivors even come from the Era of Prosperity.

Reporter: Fengqing, Guigui Task evaluation: S-

Reward: 200,000 silver coins, 2,000 contribution points, 50,000 regional reputation!]

[Server Announcement: The population of Yavent City has increased by 21,771 people, and a new explorable area "Prosperity Era Underground Commercial Complex Ruins" has been added.]

Although the world is once again on the verge of destruction, the daily lives of players have not stopped. After all, this is not the first time that the world in "Wasteland OL" is on the verge of destruction.

The BOSS in this game would be embarrassed to say he is the BOSS unless he creates a world-class crisis.

Even though these 100,000 neutron torpedoes sound a bit scary, when you think about it carefully, the alliance seems to have a lot of cards. Moreover, they now know where the enemy is.

There is always a way.

Prison No. 11 in Aventur City, Room 101.

Looking at Flynn who was tightly tied to the operating table, Jiang Xuezhou had a complex expression on his face. This guy's spirit had been severely damaged and he was probably going to be in a vegetative state for a while.

And even if he wakes up, he will probably live with mental illness for a long time.

Although it was said that she was "treating the other person in his own way," she didn't feel much pleasure in speaking out her bad breath. She couldn't quite explain why.

Maybe it's because after reading this guy's memory, she found that this guy is also a pitiful person. "This guy... what are you going to do about it?" Hearing Jiang Xuezhou's voice, Ye Shi raised his head and gave her a strange look.

.

"us?"

Not sure what he was wondering about, Jiang Xuezhou frowned and asked, "Is there any problem?"

"No..." Ye Shi scratched the back of his head, "It's just that this guy killed one of your people, right? Of course we are more inclined to leave it to you."

Jiang Xuezhou was silent for a while, then suddenly asked as if he remembered something.

"By the way, you have arrested some members of the Enlightenment Society before, right. How did you deal with them?" Ye Shi shrugged.

"What else can we do? Serve their sentences and reform through labor, let them participate in the reconstruction of the wasteland, teach in schools in homeless homes, do social volunteer work...anything like that."

Jiang Xuezhou frowned. "Will this work?"

"Then who knows whether it will work or not, we can't open their brains for this matter." Ye Shi continued with a smile.

"Some people have indeed reformed well and helped us a lot in all aspects. There are also some people who want to be aware of current affairs and become heroes, but they tolerate us because they can't beat them... There are also devout guys who have served their sentences and run away to college.

In the desert, this is possible."

Jiang Xuezhou said in confusion.

"You knew they would run away but why did you do this?" Ye Shi shook his head and said.

"There is a logical problem with this sentence. How can we know whether they will run away? To be precise, we don't care about those guys who failed to transform. What we care about is the former."

Jiang Xuezhou lowered his head and said thoughtfully, "The former..."

Ye Shi shrugged his shoulders.

"There is always something that can be reformed, right? We let them see another possibility of the world. Vault dwellers and wastelanders no longer kill each other, but join hands to rebuild their homes. There will always be someone who will agree with us and then

join us."

"Some of those who joined us became doctors, some became engineers, some became researchers, and some were instigated by us to become our intelligence agents... For us, these people are enough."

"As for the rest, just run away and pray that we won't catch you if you do something bad next time." Jiang Xuezhou's eyes gradually brightened, and he rubbed his chin with his index finger as if he was thinking seriously about something. After a moment,

She made a decision.

"I have decided." Ye Shi looked at her blankly. "What have you decided?" Jiang Xuezhou said seriously.

"I... want to give him another chance, hand him over to you, and let you reform him." Ye Shi said with a mixture of laughter and tears.

"Ah... Although we don't care, don't you guys care too?" Jiang Xuezhou shook his head. "The academy never cares about a person's life and death. This guy has no value to us anymore...

My mentor left me to figure it out on my own."

Seeing that Jiang Xuezhou was not joking, Ye Shi sighed and scratched the back of his head.

"Although I think it's a bit holy to do this, but you can do whatever you want... Anyway, one day you can't survive in the academy, it's good to come to us."

This time Jiang Xuezhou was stunned.

When she came to her senses, she raised her eyebrows and glared at Ye Shi fiercely.

"Why can't I survive? I'm doing well, and I've become a C-level researcher, okay? Haha, you should still take care of yourself."

"Me?" Ye Shi pointed at himself dumbfounded and said in a dumbfounded voice, "Are you kidding me? I've already served the first level of perception system, how much better do I have to do?"

Jiang Xuezhou frowned.

"What is the whole server? Perception system? Number one? What are you talking about again?"

Realizing that he almost violated a taboo with his words, Ye Shi quickly stopped his words. "Forget it, you don't understand even if I say it."

Seeing Ye Shi who was about to run away, Jiang Xuezhou immediately chased after him and shouted reluctantly, "I don't understand what it means to say it, you, you, don't say it in half!!"

In the corridor outside the room, listening to the distant shouts, a fatherly smile appeared on Lao Bai's face. "It seems that this boy Ye Shi has a pretty strict mouth."

Fang Chang, standing aside, smiled faintly.

"You don't understand this guy. Although he is usually not serious, he is still very principled." A simple sense of justice and morality?

No matter how others understand it, at least Fang Chang understands it this way.

A long, long time ago, when "Wasteland OL" appeared in the group of cattle and horses, this guy immediately thought of fraud, and for the safety of the group members, he pulled other managers to discuss countermeasures.

If it were Fang Chang himself, he would actually be too lazy to take care of such things. He suffers from aversion to stupidity.

Lao Bai glanced at Fang Chang, hesitated for a moment, and finally spoke. "You said that if the end of the world really happens -"

Before he finished speaking, he was interrupted by the latter. "I won't let that happen."

After saying this in an unquestionable tone, Fang Chang put his hand on his shoulder and continued seriously. "Absolutely not."

On the other side, Dawn City.

The browsing room on the B4 floor of Vault 404.

After listening to Chu Guang's narration, Yin Fang couldn't help but take a breath of cold air. "One hundred thousand neutron torpedoes?! Your Guards Regiment...are they serious?" Chu Guang shook his head.

"This piece of information was not discovered by the Guards Corps, but was provided by your old employer, the Academy." The browsing room was quiet for a while, with only the sound of the teapot gurgleing.

Yin Fang pressed his index finger between his eyebrows and remained silent for a moment, seemingly finally calming down, and then raised his head to look at the ceiling.

"Activate the gravity well immediately, and then establish an orbital defense system... No, no, if we do this, we will play into the opponent's plan!"

The garbage that rages in synchronous orbit is like egg shells, forming a natural protective umbrella for the earth.

If a neutron torpedo detonates near low-Earth orbit, those high-energy rays, under the combined influence of the geomagnetic field and other factors, will have almost no fatal impact on life on the surface!

But if the gravity well is activated and the blockade of orbital garbage is lifted, everything will be hard to say...

The biggest question now is, to what extent has Tianren mastered the Orion guided missile cruiser?

Neither the alliance nor the academy nor the company knew anything about the situation on the missile cruiser. Looking at Yin Fang who was thinking casually, Chu Guang, who was sitting on the sofa, nodded.



The academy thinks so too. Before we get more information, not only can we not activate the gravity well, but we also have to be careful that enlightenment will activate the gravity well."

He has notified the Eastern Empire about this matter, and the latter also takes it seriously and has dispatched half a million troops to the desert. The same is true for the Alliance.

Pioneer City has declared a state of emergency, and the Thorn Corps stationed in the eastern part of the Great Desert has projected its patrol area to the center of the Great Desert.

The old colonies of the Southern Legion, such as Evernight Port and Ravenka Industrial Zone, have also mobilized to be alert to possible wars that may break out in the desert.

Yin Fang said with a bitter expression.

"I just lost a scientific research ship... I didn't expect it would have such serious consequences."

"I don't think it's a problem with the scientific research ship," Chu Guang thought for a while, shook his head and said, "Perhaps our opponents have been preparing for a rainy day a long time ago. When we were dealing with the Torch Church, when we were deep in Borneo Province and

When the Southern Army was in the quagmire, they were already preparing for today's events, and the abandoned scientific research ship was just the tip of the iceberg when the conspiracy surfaced."

Yin Fang stared at him intently. "Do you have any plans?" Chu Guang shook his head. "No." Yin Fang was stunned. "No, no?" Chu Guang continued.

"The thing happened so suddenly. I have no other solution other than sending someone over to take a look first." The representative of the college has already agreed to him and agreed to lend a scientific research ship to the alliance.

This scientific research ship is currently on the outskirts of Yavent City, and the driver's name is Jiang Xuezhou. Yin Fang said with a wry smile.

"makes sense.……"

Looking at Yin Fang who was in anxiety, Chu Guang spoke slowly.

"Relevant deployments are already underway, including restarting the processing base in Shelter 100, including a just-in-case evacuation plan. But to be honest, I don't have a clear idea of ​​the 100,000 neutron torpedoes yet... What if

Without the protection of orbital debris, what would happen if these 100,000 neutron torpedoes were fired at the earth in a salvo?" "The effect is estimated to be the same as mentioned in the Torch Project. It may not be as efficient as neutron killing, but the result is

Not much different.”

Burying the bridge of his nose between his hands, Yin Fang took a deep breath and continued.

"...There probably won't be anything left on the surface, but that's not necessarily the case. The Holy Shield system should be able to defend it, and the Zhiyuan in the center of Ideal City should also be able to shield it from direct strikes."

Chu Guang looked at him and said, "Is there any shelter?"

Yin Fang nodded, but there was no optimistic expression on his face.

"Yes, but apart from these things, there will be nothing left! In addition, I don't think their attack will end here. Even if I am not an expert in the military field, I can imagine that after the strategic weapons bombing is over, there will be another

It’s time to log in once we get down.”

As for whether the orbital airborne troops will fall from the sky, or whether the "Orion" will descend in a wave of "Zhiyuan colonial ships", it depends on the mood of the heavenly people.

Neutron bombs only kill soft targets, leaving factories and railways on the surface intact.

Those guys should be able to easily take over the production facilities on the surface and complete self-replication through those production facilities.

Chu Guang had a thoughtful expression on his face.

After listening to Yin Fang's statement, he already had a general idea of ​​the "Heavenly Man"'s plan. Those guys planned to use them as fuel.

In other words, to usurp the fruits of victory that the tens of thousands of survivors in the Wasteland Letter finally achieved. He will never let them succeed!

At this moment, footsteps were heard outside the door of the browsing room, and Lu Bei, who had obtained permission, walked in from the outside. "Report!"

"Our branch in Pioneer City received a radio signal from the center of the great desert!"

"After analyzing the signal, we found a line of coordinates and a line of signature... The signer is suspected to be the transmitter of the signal, and his name is Zhuang Lan."

Zhuang Lan?

Hearing this familiar yet unfamiliar name, Chu Guang raised his eyebrows slightly.

He almost forgot about this person. He didn't expect that guy was still alive and still remembered the bet. Noticing the intriguing expression on Chu Guang's face, Yin Fang cast an inquiring look at him.

"acquaintance?"

"That's right, we've known each other for a long time," Chu Guang smiled faintly, "I didn't expect that it's not just our enemies who are hiding in the dark and acting secretly, but also the enemies of our enemies."

Looking at the smiling manager, Lu Bei hesitated for a moment, and finally reminded him in a low voice.

"Dear Mr. Manager... We are not sure yet that Zhuang Lan is one of our own, and the information she provided is quite vague. There may be a trap there."

"Whether it's a trap or not, you'll know just by taking a look."

After saying that, Chu Guang looked at the pen holder on the desk not far away and issued an order. "Xiao Qi, check for me which corps is available nearby."

"It doesn't matter if you are strong or not, as long as you are not afraid of death."
