On the way to Polis Station, Xie Yuan had a rare dream.
In fact, he knew that his mental state was very tired, because although he had only traveled for three or four days, the mental effort required was dozens of times that of a large-scale extermination of monsters near his own territory!
There are too many people to meet, too many relationships to consider, worries about the future, and fears about the truth that is gradually coming to light.
When these groups gather together, it is difficult to cope with them. Therefore, Xie Yuan, who is still energetic on the surface, is exhausted on the inside.
It is normal to fall asleep, but it is very abnormal to have a dream while sleeping. He has always been in the habit of sleeping and never dreams, and it is also a dream about the dark one...
…
"Those things are not ordinary mutant creatures. They are... things worse than mutant creatures." The adoptive father's voice echoed in Xie Yuan's ears, and at this moment he was in a barrier formed by messy rotten wood.
There is a kind of light shining in front... Although there is a barrier blocking it, the light still shines through the gap.
Then the dark one's whispers came again: "Fear...
We are also very weak.
We will also die.
fear……
This is the end..."
Uncle Hunter's voice appeared in his ears again: "Run, Artyom, run!"
Then the next moment, the wooden barrier suddenly exploded! In front of it was a pale light... and the claws of the Dark One.
"What is he doing?" Someone among the black monsters asked a confused question.
But another voice seems to be lingering in Xie Yuan's ears: "...We want peace... Even if parents love their children and try to understand them, parents will still hate their children.
We want to understand you...and help you..."
The next moment, Xie Yuan was involved in an endless fall, with blue sky and white clouds in front of him, and autumn leaves in the wind next to him.
It looked very comfortable, but the feeling of falling was not good. The last voice in my ear was Khan's: "This phenomenon is very evil, isn't it? But, you know, it is no better than...how to say...it is not
No more "evil" than fire.
It all depends on your perspective. Before you judge something, you have to understand it. It's not safe here, let's keep going."
…
"Artyom, wake up!" Xie Yuan, who was sleeping, was suddenly shaken violently. Only then did Xie Yuan open his eyes and saw that the person shaking him was Pavel.
Then, Xie Yuancai found himself being pointed at gunpoint by a group of soldiers again!
However, seeing the calm faces of Ullman and Pavel, Xie Yuan still pretended to squint his eyes.
"Hey, that one in the car! Turn off the engine! Don't move around, identify yourself!" One of the soldiers pointed a gun at Ullman, and Xie Yuan noticed that they were using a green laser pointer...a rare thing.
"Oh, we are scum," it seemed, as he finally returned home, Ullmann's humorous nature kicked in again, teasing the guards, "Come here to take over your station... Haha!"
"Ullman, is that you? And Pavel?" It seemed that the three people were surrounded by rangers this time. One of the leaders recognized Ullman and was very unimpressed by his teasing behavior and asked at the same time.
Xie Yuan's identity, "Fortunately, Petrovich is not here. He is not a person who can stand jokes! Who is the person in your passenger seat?"
"He came from the Northern Exhibition Hall," Pavel explained this time. "We escorted him here from the black station."
"Okay," the leader turned on the tunnel light and let it in!
"It's time to wake up, Artyom!" After passing through the long tunnel, Pavel pointed to the buildings ahead with dozens of searchlights illuminated, "The metropolis is here!"
Xie Yuan looked up and felt all tired. He could really say that he was the pearl of the subway city in front of him... At least he had not seen electricity being consumed so extravagantly anywhere else!
It is worthy of being the "explorer city" of mankind. If so much electricity is used in agriculture, I don't know how much more food can be produced.
As a result, they are all used for underground environmental lighting and train maintenance. Although the brighter, the better the visibility, the safer the defense effect.
Xie Yuan gritted his teeth with jealousy in his heart, but his face was calm as he looked at the city in front of him, as if he was looking forward to it... After Pavel and Ullman saw it, they nodded quietly.
After getting out of the car, Ullman and Pavel walked forward. After Xie Yuan left, they met an officer who had been at the front desk.
"Welcome to Metropolis - I am Captain Krasnov. Your journey is really not short," Krasnov said with emotion, looking at Pavel and Ullman who looked tired, and then looked at
To Xie Yuan.
"Young man, where are you from?" Krasnov asked kindly.
"The VDNKh station in the north, sir." Xie Yuan looked at Krasnov calmly and replied, "I'm here as a messenger."
"Very well, young man, you can leave your equipment here. Don't worry, no one will touch your things." Krasnov pointed to the locker on his left and on Xie Yuan's right, "Waiting for you to come back.
When the time comes, these equipment will return to your hands "shining"."
"You should take a rest first, Artem." Ullman pointed to the bench next to him, and he and Pavel came to the door. "I'm going to find Miller. I hope he's not on a mission."
"Hey, Ullman." Krasnov turned around and called out to Ullman and Pavel, "Don't forget to take a shower."
"I got it, I won't forget it...you nuisance!" Ullman waved his hand without looking back, pulling Pavel into the office.
"You don't want your child to be born with two heads, right?" Krasnov looked at Xie Yuan with a smile and said, "What an idiot."
Xie Yuan also spread his hands. After all, laziness is human nature, but he is interested in another thing... Polis actually still has a computer from 2012!
And it's still in use... Xie Yuan immediately secretly turned on the multi-purpose tool hacking mode. He really wanted to know what content was stored here... Unfortunately, he could only look at it when he was alone. There were so many people here.
.
However, after sorting out all the items, Xie Yuan went to their equipment and supplies department, where he saw two strange and unique supply equipment.
Bicycle shotgun and bullpup assault rifle ak2012.
As the name suggests, most of the parts of the six-barreled bicycle gun are really derived from bicycles. Compared with the "Stagger" shotgun, which also has a six-round capacity, its rate of fire is relatively faster and its range is shorter.
, loading is also quite troublesome.
However, the real reason why Polis promotes such a gun is that compared to other standard weapons, such a home-made weapon is quite lethal to monsters, but it is not suitable for participating in battles against people.
The other one is a real Ranger standard weapon. The AK-2012 is a new assault rifle that was just put into service one year before the nuclear war. This kind of weapon is very rare and only special forces are qualified to use them.
This rifle can be regarded as a product of the combination of the traditional AK series automatic mechanism and the overall structure and ammunition supply method of the P90. This makes the structure of this rifle very compact, and it has features that can be called by assault rifle standards.
Considerable ammo capacity.
The only reason why the munitions department is willing to sell it is that this gun is also a large consumer of military bullets. Although it has a small number of people, there are fewer people using it.
Although the rangers liked to use this weapon in general battles, since it was two types they had never seen before, Xie Yuan also bought it generously.
At this moment, Xie Yuan heard Ullman's report on the recent situation in the office outside the door: "...Then I waited for them at the black station. By the way, the police were already stationed there... They
Sooner or later they will find us."
Xie Yuan still knew enough not to listen any more, but sat on the bench and continued to wait.
But five minutes before the appointment, the office door suddenly opened. A man in military uniform with gray hair and a beard came out, surrounded by Ullman and Pavel. He looked around and asked: "Where is he?"
?”
"Report, Lieutenant Colonel!" Krasnov stood at attention and glanced in Xie Yuan's direction.
"Take a break." The lieutenant colonel returned the greeting and looked at Xie Yuan.
"He is Lieutenant Colonel Miller."
Deliver the stuff."
After saying that, Xie Yuan took out Hunter's identity card from his pocket.
"Are you Artyom?" Lieutenant Colonel Miller stretched out his hand and shook Xie Yuan's hand. "I am Artyom. Please come with me and tell me the hunter's message."
Miller pulled Xie Yuan into the office. In the office, Xie Yuan described the experience before and after Hunter's arrival, his request to Xie Yuan before leaving, and his inference that Hunter was not dead at all.
"Thank you, thank you for bringing the hunter's message to Metropolis." After listening to Xie Yuan's account, Miller took a sip of mushroom vodka, then thought for a moment and made a decision, "I want to convene an emergency meeting. When they summon you
, just report the situation."
"What? There's still a meeting?" Xie Yuan was confused. He didn't like meetings the most. "What's the meeting for? I'm not here to ask for help. The purpose of my coming here is to send a message and to inform you to take precautions.
"
The hand on the phone suddenly stopped. Miller looked at Xie Yuan with a strange look: "You said you don't need to ask for help? But I know that the Hanseatic League has given up on rescuing you. Don't you need Polis's assistance?
?”
"My subway station may need help in arranging evacuation at the last moment, if things really reach an irreversible point." Xie Yuan did not deny that his subway station does not need assistance at all, "But if you say that assisting in the prevention and control
There is no need for any kind of assistance, it is the same as having it or not having it.”
Seeing Miller's furious expression, Xie Yuan knew what this man thought Xie Yuan was accusing, so he still explained: "I'm not doubting your other intentions, but numbers are meaningless in front of the Dark One.
What I really need is something that will put the final word on it.”
"Bang!" Miller still stubbornly pressed the broadcast button and announced an emergency notice: "All members, please gather in the parliament hall immediately.
I repeat: All members, please gather in the parliament hall immediately."
Then Miller looked at Xie Yuan: "Whatever you need, just finish this meeting and we'll talk about it."
He looked at his entourage: "Send this child to the parliament hall."
Looking at the entourage coming over, Xie Yuan whined with a headache. He could only pull out a large number of documents from his backpack under Miller's strange gaze, and went to the conference room with his entourage.
