Tang Ji's return, to these old members of the team, is like the miracle of the Bible shining into reality. Although everyone believed that Tang Ji would not die on the Day of Apocalypse, when he appeared in front of everyone like this, they
It still feels a little too unreal.
I don’t know since when, facing this fucked up world and facing this status quo that they are unable to change, they have become accustomed to trusting Tang Ji and believing that Tang Ji can solve all this.
That feeling is like saying, when Tang Ji comes, it will be dawn.
In fact, this is indeed the case. Strictly speaking, the Davis Mountain Shelter is just a relatively large private shelter. The reason why it can even have a second-generation reactor as its energy center is because of Tang Ji's face.
For the survivors of the current stage of the shelter, this reactor, which has an energy source that continuously outputs energy with a cost of almost zero, is the main reason why the Davis Mountain shelter can rise strongly in the wasteland.
Secondly, there are many high-level superhumans in this shelter, and they have enough ability to protect themselves.
However, if the Davis Mountain Shelter wants to continue to develop and grow, it will have to face behemoths like Mikkelsen or the remaining federal government departments. There are fundamental differences between the two sides.
For example, the looters who have been lingering nearby and have evil intentions towards the Davis Mountain Sanctuary have carried out liquidation operations targeting Saints and Martins countless times. It is conservatively estimated that they have wiped out five people in Arizona.
The number of raiders ranging from a hundred to eight hundred people is strong.
This does not include the air force among the Predators. Those Predators seemed to have sufficient Skyraider aircraft to serve as their own air power. At their peak, they once mobilized twelve aircraft in the air to fight with Ethan's drone swarm.
air combat
The number and firepower of these marauders have reached the level of the federal army's battalion-level combat units before the Apocalypse. If the target of the attack was not the Davis Mountain Refuge, they might have taken control of the entire state in another place.
Not to mention where the Marauders got so much strength, where their equipment and logistics came from is a puzzling question.
However, the feedback they received from Vault Zero for intelligence support several times was that the sky was too hazy to capture valuable satellite images, and it was temporarily impossible to determine the direction of the predators' source.
In fact, Miwako had long suspected that Mikkelsen was secretly supporting the predators, but she had no evidence, or even if she had, it was meaningless. Anne, who had been convicted of the Seven Deadly Sins, had no choice but to flee in embarrassment when her life was threatened.
Hiding in the Davis Mountain Shelter, what can they do even if they have key evidence?
But it’s different now!
Tanguy is back! The only person Mikkelsen fears is back!
"I heard that you have lost your memory. Although it's a bit overestimating what I can say, I can help you do a full body examination." Anthony stepped forward and hugged Tang Ji, then looked at Tang Ji up and down, and finally stopped at
On Tang Ji's right arm: "Your body is quite good now."
Tang Ji followed Anthony's eyes and glanced at his right hand. He had seen his own image in the Moonlight Gold's surveillance system. His entire right arm was a metal prosthesis, and now his limbs are intact.
"Anyway, it's good to be back." Anthony led Tang Ji through the streets of the gathering place on the surface. Not all of the New Hope generation who preferred to live on the surface knew Tang Ji. They just looked at the sheltered man with curiosity.
The people guarding the high-level officials were speculating on his identity and origins.
"Dad, is he Tangji?" Eclair whispered in the saint's ear. Among the New Hope generation in the shelter, the one who admires Tangji the most must be Constantine Guren.
Eclair's rumors about Tang Ji basically come from Gu Ren. He tells at least three jokes about Tang Ji every day. He even knows the powerful enemies that Tang Ji has destroyed.
She heard Tan Ninja vividly describe the battle of victory in the square, which was the first battle Tang Ji had known to the world, and then there were classic scenes of rage versus greed, rage versus gluttony, rage versus jealousy, and a lot more.
The story of a furious massacre of players.
What Gu Ren likes most is the feud between Tang Ji and the resurrected Kang.
It's a pity that the number one fan missed Tang Ji's return this time. Gu Ren and the others have a patrol mission today and will not be back until two hours later.
The saint nodded with a serious expression, no one can pretend to be Tang Ji, no one.
The long-awaited reunion between old friends seemed a little disconnected because of Tang Ji's amnesia and silence. These old friends who had persisted in the wasteland for nearly thirty years were a little at a loss in front of such Tang Ji.
"Okay, everyone, sit down." After entering the conference room of the shelter, Tang Ji looked at these somewhat uneasy people and said.
Everyone sat down and behaved naturally.
"I know that what you are waiting for is not me, but Fury. It is Tang Ji who fights side by side with you and has experienced countless lives and deaths." Tang Ji's eyes glanced over one by one, but he did not see the loss in these people's eyes.
.
The moment Tang Ji spoke, these people knew that this was Tang Ji, and it had nothing to do with amnesia. He was already Tang Ji long before Tang Ji became furious.
"But now, you only have me, no rage, no seven original sins, just Tang Ji." Tang Ji continued, he could not and did not want to evade his responsibilities, since the Apocalypse Day is him and the other name sounds like a jerk.
People did it together, so someone has to take care of this mess now.
The saint nodded very seriously, with an expression on his face as if Jesus in the church had just given him a thumbs up.
"Okay, first question, when that bastard named Mikkelsen decided to blow up the earth and wipe out human civilization, I did agree, right? No deception, no concealment?" Tang Ji sat
He sat on the chair, and for some reason, everyone including Anthony breathed a sigh of relief.
But after hearing Tang Ji's question, Ethan habitually beamed with Martin and the others and communicated with each other by raising their eyebrows, just like they did in Edward's hiding house.
Tang Ji did agree to the Apocalypse Day plan. After all, it seemed to be an effective plan at the time. There was a 50% probability of getting rid of the players, but there was no deception or concealment. No one could guarantee it.
After all, we can fully assume that Mikkelsen gasped thirty times per minute, but fifteen of them were fake. He was just panting without actually breathing in or out of air.
The reason is most likely because during those fifteen fake breaths, Mikkelsen was secretly farting to poison others, and through deception and concealment, he protected himself from the harm.
"At least he didn't deceive us when it comes to players." Anthony finally said conclusively. During those years as a shelter supervisor, Anthony, a man who advocates a simple life, had to learn the way of thinking like a political animal.
.
"Very good, second question." Tang Ji was silent for a second and then asked, "Who knows where Tang Anran is now?"
His question was met with a wider silence, and finally it was the saint who spoke first: "On the moon, head, safely on the moon."
Tang Ji raised his head and looked at the ceiling of the shelter. Even without this ceiling, it was still daytime and the moon was on the other side of the earth and could not be seen at all.
But this is always good news. At least he now knows where Tang Anran is.
"The third question." Tang Ji was silent for a longer time this time, but finally he asked: "Did the player kill Angelina?"
This question caused a longer silence. They all joined the team after the Red Sun Incident. Because of Tang Ji's majesty, none of them dared to really ask about this matter. Many of the information came from third parties.
Known by the channel.
But Tang Ji’s question is still difficult to answer, because players may not have realized at the time that their attack would have such a far-reaching impact later on.
"It was indeed a tragedy caused by the actions of the players. They detonated a nuclear bomb in Night City, and the nuclear explosion eventually led to Angelina's death." Miwako is from the intelligence system after all.
The company had painstakingly studied Tang Ji, his background, his origins, whether his particularity was inevitable or accidental, etc.
Although in the end these companies are just like players, who exhausted all their efforts but only got nothing in the end, Miwako still has a relatively systematic understanding of Tangji.
But this also caused Miwako to have a doubt. The reason why Tang Ji became Furious was because of the tragedy in Red Sun Time. Now that he has even forgotten the source of his anger, is he still the same Furious? Will he still be so special?
?
No one knows, probably not even Tang Ji himself.
After getting the answer from Miwako, Tang Ji just nodded silently and took out a cigarette from the cigarette case.
The next second, Martin, Ethan, and Tony all took out lighters from their arms, but Soult was the fastest. Before anyone else could react, Tangji's cigarette had already been lit.
"Last question, it's been so long since the Apocalypse and the big storm has subsided, why are you still living in caves?" Tang Ji blew out a puff of smoke in the air and looked at his 'old subordinates' through the smoke:
"What are you worried about?"
"Head! What is this?" A looter wearing a body armor shook his head and knocked on the box in the carriage with the butt of his gun, asking Ward Karloff.
"Don't knock on that box, idiot, it contains a nuclear warhead." Ward Karloff rolled his eyes. Compared with a month ago, Karloff had gone through a lot of changes.
After his tank formation was easily destroyed by the opponent, Karloff struggled to survive in the wasteland and walked all the way back to the Marauder camp on his own legs. After being promoted to the third level, he was sent back to carry out this unfortunate mission.
But this time, the Predator Kona equipped him with several self-propelled artillery, the models were unknown, and even the shapes were different, but Karloff didn't care as long as he knew those things could be used and was willing to obey his orders.
Compared with the brand-new self-propelled artillery, the nuclear bomb was an old item dug out from an abandoned military base, but the password used to activate it had been sent to Karloff along with the nuclear bomb.
He could only sigh with emotion at the great predator Kona's magical powers.
"Nuclear warhead? Is it the kind of bomb that turned the world into what it is now?" The predator's eyes suddenly widened, and the gun butt that he had planned to hit again froze in mid-air, daring not to drop it.
"It is safe now. Even if a cannonball explodes next to us, it will not be activated, idiot." Karloff rolled his eyes at his illiterate subordinate, showing off his only recent knowledge: "The only way is to wait.
After I enter the password, it will become a power that can destroy everything!"
After hearing this, the plunderer breathed a sigh of relief and smashed it a few more times to vent his anger before giving up: "Boss, I heard that you didn't get in with a tank last time? Is that shelter so difficult to deal with?"
"Who knows, I don't even know what happened. The tank was overturned. Maybe it was blown by a big storm." Karloff glanced at the box containing the nuclear bomb again, and finally couldn't bear the idiotic behavior of his men.
Behavior, scolded: "Can you stay away from that thing?"
"Boss, didn't you say it would be okay even if a cannonball exploded next to it?" The predator retorted slyly: "Besides, there is another box here. I just smashed it twice to enjoy it. This is a nuclear bomb. From now on
Never seen it before!”
"What if something unexpected happens? What if it's not that safe?" Karloff was about to retort, but suddenly there was a terrifying roar in his ears. It was the devil's voice that sounded when the Skyraider launched a dive.
!
Boom!
The entire car bounced off the ground, and the next second, a deafening explosion reached their ears, making the two people's ears ring.
It's an airstrike!
Karloff has been entangled with the Davis Mountain Shelter for several months. He knows that the other party's flight formation is often composed of three aircraft, and this is just the first wave!
I've seen it, their patrol range has expanded again!
This group of people used a small bomb of fifty kilograms, he was sure, but this small bomb was defined by the golden age of mankind before the Apocalypse. Looking at the shed full of holes that was penetrated by debris twenty centimeters above his head,
Karloff was immediately frightened so much that his legs became weak, but what made him even more weak was the nuclear bomb.
The plunderer who was lucky enough to be uninjured looked at the nuclear bomb with the expression of a dead mother. On the box, several fragments had already penetrated the truck shed and the box containing the nuclear bomb.
.
"Are you sure it will be fine even if a cannonball explodes next to it, right?" the predator carefully confirmed.
"Can you shut up and be quiet for a while?" Karloff gritted his teeth and looked at the other person. At this time, the truck had stopped on the road, and he heard the driver opening the door and running away.
Thinking of this, Karloff rushed to the rear of the carriage without hesitation, preparing to jump out and escape, but the next round of air strikes was already coming!
So, today, for the first time in a long time, I finished my writing within the stipulated time. I’ve been having a hard time writing lately.
