Chapter 208: Deep Sorrow (76): A Transaction (Part 2)
"This is Marco, who I mentioned to you, who went to the front line to collect information about the Red Dang. He is the third person in our Wilderness Tourist Group, and his status is second only to Big Brother and me." Thalia introduced.
.
"Welcome, welcome. I have been looking forward to the stars, the moon, and the sun, and finally you are here." After hearing the introductions between "Future" and Thalia, Marco stepped forward with great enthusiasm and grabbed "Future"'s hand.
Arms, hold firmly and shake vigorously.
If this was not just an "alienation" of the arm, "Future" believed that Marco's movements would be enough to dislocate him.
After finally getting rid of Marco's "enthusiastic support", "Future" rubbed his arm with greatly degraded perception, while easing the discomfort, he said:
"I heard that you have collected a lot of information about 'Red Dang' in the past few days. So, in your opinion, is there really a hidden truth behind these 'Red Dang' incidents as Ms. Talia said?
A huge disaster?"
"Based on our current understanding, the possibility is 90%." Marco said while pulling Future towards the "Administrative Building" not far away:
"Brother, from the look on my face, I know that Thalia has already finished talking to you about what needs to be discussed. When you suddenly hear such a statement, you will definitely feel that we are alarmist, intimidating you, and forcing you to cooperate with us. In fact,
We don't know how to do these things, and we don't bother to do these things. For the specific content, go to the 'Reference Room' under the 'Administrative Building' to discuss it in detail. I will tell you all the information I have. As for whether you are willing to help us, I
respect your wishes."
Just like that, half pushed and half done, "Future", "Forced" and the two leaders of the "Wilderness Tourist Group" walked into the "Administrative Building" that looked very simple and simple on the outside.
Relying on their leadership position, the "independent armed" soldiers stationed at the entrance of the "Administrative Building" did not make any inquiries. They just exchanged a few greetings as usual and let the three people walk inside.
Looking around, "Future" feels a little strange. If it is a stronghold controlled by the Federal Council, its administrative agencies are always very busy. Unless the war is approaching, there are usually many people coming in and out, but this "administrative building" looks...
It's very deserted, probably because Hermosk was just founded.
This "administrative building" actually occupies a small area. Apart from a lonely three-story white Cruzeid-style building, there is only an area where mechanical vehicles are parked, and nothing else.
Even the steps leading into the building are temporarily paved with uneven and untrimmed stones. The ground in the entrance hall is paved with a layer of smooth marble, but when you look around, it is covered with a layer of dust, and
A lot of construction waste that has not yet been cleaned up exudes a pungent smell.
When they reached the door of the only simple "cage-style" elevator, Thalia and Marco fiddled with it for a while before turning on its power supply. While waiting for the elevator to rise slowly, Marco said a little embarrassedly
Said to "Future":
"This 'Administrative Building' has just been built and is still a bit crude. It is completely incomparable with the 'Hong Kong Terrace' restored by the Federal Council in Karnosk. But as long as we give it time and give us a little more time and resources, I believe that this building will be
This trading stronghold filled with fairness and justice will grow into the largest city in the North."
"Future" turned his head and glanced at Marco. Although his face showed no expression, he was laughing at the unrealistic fantasies of the "wilderness tourist group".
But, then again, this kind of arrogant and unrealistic fantasy is the fundamental driving force that supports the development of these "independent armed" organizations to this day. This is a limited order that is independent of human creation in the wasteland world.
No matter who becomes their leader, the organizational culture outside the organization will continue this arrogant but extremely determined idea.
Boom, boom, boom, boom...
After the thick and safe sound produced by the complex mechanical operation reached several people's ears and stopped abruptly, the simple iron mesh door of the "cage-style" elevator in front of them was slowly opened, revealing the
A standing platform made of metal plates that looks unstable.
Following Thalia and Marco, "Future" walked into the elevator. As the two elevator doors closed simultaneously, Marco took off his gloves, pulled down the joysticks on both sides, and took a heavy photo of the scene in front of him with his palm.
red button.
Accompanied by the fierce flash of red and terrifying light, the "cage" elevator began to descend vertically slowly but not very smoothly after shaking violently for a few times.
"How far does this elevator...have to go down to reach your...er, 'data room'?" "Future" asked as he looked at the gradually dimming space around him.
"About forty-five minutes, Brother Future." Marco replied.
After a slight pause, and seeing that the light around him had reached the level of night, making it almost impossible to see people's faces clearly, he lowered his tone significantly like an ancient god hiding in a rumored damp palace in the deep sea, and spoke in a rare voice.
The deep voice continued:
"I know, you must be wondering why we have a 'cage' elevator in the administrative building instead of the enclosed elevator commonly used in the official institutions of the Federal Council, right?"
"Indeed, it is too dark here, and the location of the 'data room' is too low. My 'Burning Black Vision' tells me that the space you dug underground is not complicated, but it is very large, and its scale has exceeded
There are many experimental site relics left by the old empire...Wait, experimental site, could it be?" With doubts and slight fear on his face, "Future" shifted his gaze to Marco's face in the darkness.
Feeling the emotional fluctuations of "Future", Marco raised the corners of his mouth, showing a smile that contrasted with the darkness, nodded slightly, and said:
"This is the experimental site left by the old empire. According to the information left by the 'Northern Scientific Research Group' managed by Ivan XXII personally, I learned that this experimental site underground in Hermosk is actually the
A backup site set up for an 'evolution platform'. Although we did not get the [Core to the Future], we can still analyze the vast amount of data and conclude that the 'evolution platform' is the 'Tianji'.
This chapter is not over, please click on the next page to continue reading! "The name is borrowed from the name of the Big Dipper by the Khitanris people. The evolution platform of Joigrad is 'Tianquan', which represents the fourth planet. If we
If we can calculate the position of the main body based on the substitutes, that is, the specific position of the 'evolution platform' representing the third planet 'Tianji', then even if we cannot get any 'core', we can still find all the 'evolutions'
Taiwan’s location.”
"So, the trading base is still a cover for your 'wilderness tourist group', and its real purpose is to find the 'evolution platform' just like humans and us lost ones, right?" "Future" snorted coldly.
"Of course, but not the only one." Marco replied:
"There are countless paths to success. All roads lead to the ice. The key lies in choice. The wasteland world will not give anyone a chance to make mistakes. Choice is greater than hard work. Indeed, our original purpose is to occupy an 'evolution platform' first.
, destroy it as much as possible to destroy Vasily's plot. But when we learned that the "Red Swing" caused by the changes inside the "Man-Made Lake" will bring huge disasters, the "Evolution Platform" became unusable.
So important.
"Actually, according to the "Future Epic" and the divination of the prologue cards, our big brother learned that 'no one can find the 'Evolution Platform' before it appears.' Our efforts on the 'Evolution Platform' are doomed.
It will be in vain, and it will appear in front of everyone in the most unexpected way at the moment the conditions are met, just like the program is programmed."
"So, what is your purpose in retaining and using such a huge experimental field? I can see and feel that the energy flow here is very violent." "Future" asked curiously.
"It doesn't hurt to tell you." Thalia explained before Marco:
"Energy. For energy. Since the 'Ancient Beast of Nuclear Core' and the group of people brought by 'Yan Xi' who invaded our old base died together, Big Brother has found the huge 'energy supply body' hidden here. It is
The 'biological energy storage body' developed by the team led by the old empire scientist Ivanov Khatrov has both biological and mechanical properties. When not needed, it is a huge battery that can be closed and dried
It can be stored in the environment for thousands of years without being damaged.
"But once you need it, you only need to give it a steady stream of food when its energy is about to be exhausted, and it will continue to supply energy. Compared with the 'Ancient Beast', it will neither complain nor feel
Fatigue, because it is extremely strong, will not be easily destroyed by artillery pieces like 'Hyacinth'.
"Look, the 'future', the elevator has led us to the area where it exists. Take a closer look, it is so beautiful and soft."
Thalia said, pointing diagonally downward.
"Future" put away the extra field of vision given by "Burning Black Vision", widened his eyes, and looked at the huge sphere not far from his feet that was slowly rising as the elevator descended.
Yes, it is a huge elf-like sphere that seems to be round, but the cyan blue emitting from the outside conceals its outline to a certain extent.
It is like a gorgeous sphere surrounded by lightning that seems to be suspended eternally in the dimension of the universe. At first glance, it is no different from the energy body in the concept, but with the change of light and darkness, the "future" can see that it is maintained.
It is a complex three-dimensional structure made up of many cube mechanical blocks that are running stably internally.
At this moment, it is continuously transmitting energy to the outside world through the huge wires connected to its body.
After staring for a while, until it "walked" to the top of the three people's heads, and it felt very strenuous to look up, "Future" rubbed its neck and asked:
"Does it, this 'energy donor', have a name?"
"Of course, the scientific team of the old empire called it 'Mechanical Twin', and Ivanov gave it a more adorable name, 'Aiolic'." Marco replied.
