"Those who come from the south to the north, those who go east to the west, and those who pass by, come and have a look. You can tell fortunes with your conscience!" A smooth braised egg-like head behind the small stall,
Shouting, the shelter residents passing by couldn't help but smile when they saw this scene, and no one stopped.
"Brother, we haven't opened for three days. When can we save enough money to buy a virtual reality helmet?" A child who looked to be no more than eleven or twelve years old squatted next to him and sighed. There were three or four others around him.
My friends are all downbeat too.
The reason why these children can give up their precious vacation time and stay here is entirely because the leader of this small gang, Feng Chenyin, decided to earn his first pot of gold, and planned to start by setting up a stall to tell fortunes.
Like the Prophet, Fengchenyin is also a superhuman with future vision.
It's just that the prophet awakened after he grew up, while Fengchenyin saw the future through the river of time from the moment he was born, which almost killed him.
It took the young Fengchen Yinjing three years to understand what he was doing in a state of confusion, and he was gradually able to distinguish the difference between reality and future vision. During this period, he experienced nearly starving to death, and nearly dying of hunger.
The many disasters of being abandoned and almost being declared euthanasia by the medical department of the shelter for children with cerebral palsy
If he didn't have a strong and great mother, he would have died in an accident long ago.
But fortunately, Fengchenyin grew up stumbled and controlled his abilities. In the process, no one realized that this little child was a superhuman. After all, other superhuman children had begun to show their prominence early.
"Don't be anxious, keep shouting, it's coming soon." Fengchenyin comforted his friends like a grown-up, and seemed to be very confident in his words.
Several children shouted feebly, obviously not believing a word the 'boss' said.
At this time, Wang Zhengdao appeared near the surface camp of Shelter 101 in a dusty state. He came to find Fengchen Seal.
He resigned from his position as the supervisor of Vault 97 in NC-18, and then chose to enter the hibernation chamber, where he slept for seven years. He was woken up from his dream by Annie a few days ago.
In order to escape from Mikkelsen, Annie almost shook everyone she knew, but it was thanks to Annie that Wang Zhengdao knew that now that Old Tang was awake, the storm had weakened to the point where it did not affect the use of supernatural powers.
to the extent.
However, Wang Zhengdao's first space jump after returning to the surface was still restricted. He originally wanted to return directly to the Ark Organization, but found that he could not locate such a long distance across half of the world.
Wang Zhengdao could only do the next best thing and planned to go to Shelter 101 to confirm the status of the seal. Because of the existence of the Apocalypse Day, the historical direction of the entire world has changed. In the list left by the prophet, there are
Many new generations born after the Apocalypse did not even have time to be born, and their parents perished along with the world.
In addition, many shelters did not report the population born after the New Hope Era, and the Fengchen Seal turned out to be the only protected object that Wang Zhengdao could determine the location and status of.
Although the impact of the big storm has been greatly weakened, Lao Wang still jumped out of the error of more than 200 kilometers this time, and the energy consumed was far beyond Wang Zhengdao's imagination. At least in the next few days, he did not want to be in the surface environment
Performed a space jump below.
Wang Zhengdao walked in the wasteland for a full fourteen hours before he saw the camp established by Shelter 101 on the surface.
Like most numbered shelters, Vault 101 started building a surface camp centered around the entrance and exit of the shelter. Their first consideration was their own safety. The entire camp looked like a bunker from a distance.
Raiders rarely attack such numbered shelter camps, and they are no match in terms of firepower.
Vault 101 has returned to the surface since NC-23, and currently only maintains trade relations with a private sanctuary and a tribe of wanderers.
The former is working hard to provide Vault 101 with fresh vegetables that are not products of the Gray Field Project, while the latter will appear once a quarter and exchange crudely processed gasoline for various living supplies that he needs from the shelter.
From Wang Zhengdao's perspective, the development strategy of Shelter 101 is a bit conservative. They seem to be satisfied with their current living conditions and have little enthusiasm for rebuilding a new home on the surface.
If he were to lead this shelter, Wang Zhengdao couldn't help but smile, feeling that he really didn't work enough.
The guards in the surface camp spotted Wang Zhengdao from a distance and notified the nearby patrol team. Soon, two off-road vehicles drove out of the camp and stopped Wang Zhengdao one kilometer away from the camp.
.
"It's not common for travelers to travel alone these days. Where are you from and where are you going?" The armed security guard asked cautiously from a distance of thirty meters away from Wang Zhengdao.
Thirty meters on the surface is a very safe distance, and no superhuman ability has yet been discovered that can operate at a distance of thirty meters on the surface.
"I am Wang Zhengdao, the former supervisor of Vault 97. I am here for a trip." Wang Zhengdao did not hide his identity. He is also considered a well-known figure. He can't hide anything and is simply aboveboard.
"Travel?" The person on the other end was obviously confused by Wang Zhengdao's answer, and sent the message back in a blur.
After half an hour of delay, Wang Zhengdao was finally able to successfully enter the No. 101 shelter. After all, his risk-taking actions to save other shelters in the big storm brought Wang Zhengdao an unprecedented good reputation.
After declining the invitation of the supervisor of Vault 101 to accompany him on the tour, Wang Zhengdao finally entered the shelter and breathed a sigh of relief.
As a space superhuman, it is always uncomfortable to be suppressed by a big storm on the surface of the earth. Lao Wang estimates that if he accidentally encounters the main force of the great predator Kona, he will probably admit defeat.
The busiest place in Vault 101 is the large market on the top floor near the surface. Many residents of the Vault who have returned from exploring the surface will sell the gadgets they have collected here. Wang Zhengdao's first target is naturally here.
He couldn't tell people directly that he was looking for a child named Fengchen Yin. Then Mikkelsen, who was lurking inside Vault 101, might have known the information in advance and hid him before he was found.
Already.
That old Yinbi will definitely do this kind of thing. Before he understands the specialness of Fengchen Seal, Wang Zhengdao will never see anyone, but
"Those coming from the south, those going north, those walking east, those going west, and those passing by, all come to see it." As soon as Wang Zhengdao entered the market, he was attracted by the crisp sounds of children and looked at the stalls set up by a group of children not far away.
When Lao Wang saw the smiling child, who seemed to have known about today's meeting, he immediately understood that that was the person he was looking for, that was the second prophet.
Wang Zhengdao didn't know that countless thoughts flashed through his heart. He didn't know why, but he just felt like crying. He always felt that the prophet was not dead yet, but was just joking with them and the whole world, and he might jump up again one day.
Came out to scare people.
But the moment he saw the seal, Wang Zhengdao knew that the prophet was really dead.
Wang Zhengdao didn't know how he got across that distance. He was already sitting in front of the stall set up by the children: "Hello, my name is Wang Zhengdao."
"I know." Feng Chenyin smiled gently: "I've been waiting for you for a long time."
"Boyle, how do you feel?" As the mist in the dormant chamber dispersed, Boyle heard a familiar voice coming from his ears. It took him a while to realize that it was Philip's voice.
"Ha, are you an old man now?" Boyle looked at the face that was almost as old as himself and smiled weakly: "Is it time already? I feel like I can sleep for a while longer."
"You have been sleeping for twenty years. It is NC-25 now, and it will be 26 in just over a month." Philip hugged his old friend. As the two top leaders of the Taha Gang, they had a difficult time
Led the people of District 13 through the great storm.
But now, the whole world seems to be placed in front of them, allowing them to develop and seize it.
"What's going on outside now?" Boyle took a moment to wake himself up. As a person who had been injected with the Greedy Blood potion back then, he was much stronger than he looked.
"The big storm has almost subsided, and we have begun to resume production on the surface. The wall protected us at the last moment. I guess the Gauls never expected such an ending in their lifetime." Philip said in a joking tone,
The anger in his voice no longer existed back then.
Twenty years, for an ordinary person, is already a quarter of a life, enough to eliminate any hatred, not to mention whether Gaul exists now is a question.
"There should be no other survivors except us within the Paris area." Philip helped Boyle put on his clothes and introduced the current situation: "When the coalition forces planned the Apocalypse Day, they selected the detonation point in the Paris area.
We are at the junction of District 8 and District 17. Now we can hardly go north after passing District 5, and the residual radiation value is still very high."
"How are the other shelters?" Boyle held a cup of hot chocolate and drank it one mouthful at a time, quickly replenishing the sugar in his body: "Where did you get this thing? I thought I had slept for twenty years. This thing
They are all extinct.”
"One of the refugees brought a bag of cocoa seeds. After we established a foothold on the surface, we made some space to plant these seeds. Didn't you say that you have to give people hope? Is there anything more hopeful than chocolate?
Philip smiled and continued: "But don't be too happy. This is your gift for getting up. If there is more, we have sold all the chocolates."
"Have we started trading with other shelters?" A smile suddenly appeared on Boyle's face: "Who are they? When did we contact them?"
"A few years after you started hibernating, Dr. Wu Qianying developed a communication system that could break through the blockade of major storms. Now there is a shelter meeting every month." Philip explained: "I gave you all the information you need to know.
It’s been compiled into a document, you’ll have to spend some time to read it, it’s as big as two G’s, and it’s all pure text.”
"As expected of Dr. Wu, I'm starting to have a headache now." Boyle was about to say that he was old, but found that Phillip now had more white hair on his head than him, and finally just hugged him.
As the leaders of the Taha Gang, the most selfish decision they have ever made is to privately decide to take turns in power and extend their lifespan as much as possible in the hope that one day they can see human civilization prosper again, and now is the time to change shifts.
"Is there anything else I should pay attention to?" Boyle finished drinking the hot chocolate in his hand and felt that his body was completely awake.
"Vault Zero sent a secret letter a few years ago, asking us to be careful about Wolfgang. He ate all the superhumans in his refuge and then abandoned the refuge. He is now missing. If found
His traces immediately alerted Shelter Zero." Philip warned: "But we have all seen the strength of the Seven Deadly Sins, what I mean is to try not to provoke them."
"Wolfgang is so greedy. I'm afraid we will have to face this problem sooner or later." Boyle suddenly began to have a headache.
After the Apocalypse, Mikkelsen released a limited amount of information about the Seven Deadly Sins to these large shelters, which was both a deterrent and a warning.
Of course, the two people with the most detailed information are Gluttony and Greed.
Mikkelsen needs refuges in various places, especially those in the Ganges region, to monitor the companion insects left behind by gluttony. He also needs to ensure that refuges in the European Union region are vigilant about Wolfgang, in order to
To make up for the weakened ability to monitor these two 'scourges' after losing the hive mind.
It's a pity that the Ganges people are still lingering on the edge of species extinction, completely behind the times, and unable to form an effective influence on the surface, while Wolfgang simply soared into the sky and has never been heard from again.
"Anyway, I'll leave it to you. After the welcome party, it's time for me to relax. I forgot to tell you that I'm getting married." Philip said calmly: "But my wife died two years ago. There is a problem with attending the wedding.
, we have a child, he is six years old this year, he will sleep with me, don't let me down, I hope that when my son wakes up, there will already be a regular school here."
"You" Boyle could only sigh in the end and hugged Phillip: "Believe me, not only school, but everything will be there."
While the two were reminiscing about old times, Wolfgang was drinking in an underground bar less than 500 meters away from them. He heard the conversation between the two clearly, and a smile appeared on his face: "Tsk, I'm right
Ordinary people have no interest, so why are they so nervous?"
