Early the next morning, Ryan woke up from his bare bed. It was probably the worst bed he'd ever slept in, but it was nice to have a bed in this world.

After eating the compressed dry food teleported from the world of Plants vs. Zombies for breakfast, Ryan returned to his house and made several runestones from the gold he found yesterday and the small pebbles he picked up in the river. By noon, Knight was ready to leave for Diamond City to investigate the situation. Ryan stopped him and took the rune in his hand to the ground.

"There are six runestones here, three for stealth, and three for reconnaissance. Just hold them on your forehead for three seconds and they will work. The Invisibility Rune will keep you invisible for five minutes, while the Scout Rune will form a map in your mind of all the lifeforms within 30 meters of you. Finally, I wish you all the best. ”

"Thank you!" Knight hesitated for a moment, but then took the rune stones as if he had thought of something. Then he said to Ryan, "Help me take care of my lady while I'm away, after all, she hasn't experienced anything cruel before." ”

Unlike in the game, Knight didn't let his wife go on an adventure with him. Instead, he placed his wife in the relative safety of a sheltered hill. Think about it, too, how foolish it would be to let a woman who was just an ordinary working woman before the war take the risk: not only would she not help, but she would drag her feet.

As Knight reached the gate of the settlement, Ryan heard him shout, "Don't worry, Nora, I'll find our son." And Ryan, I'll be sure to bring you enough samples the next time I come back. ”

After Knight left, Preston came up with the idea of rebuilding the militia. The militia used to roam the wasteland of the Federation, but when their headquarters were destroyed and the last general died, the militias in the various settlements became scattered and quarreled with each other for the position of leadership. This process naturally leads to the withdrawal of a large number of people.

In the Quincy massacre, only one militia unit went there to support and was almost completely wiped out. The people they saved from the museum were survivors of the Quincy Massacre plus the last militiaman, Preston.

So, when someone had successfully settled down, Preston, the idealist, naturally set the goal of rebuilding the militia.

"Well, excuse me. After listening to Preston's passionate speech, Ryan asked his own question: "Why would you want to rebuild the militia instead of settling down now and living in Sanctuary Hills?"

"Because I think when the militia existed, the people of the Federation were much better off than they are now. Maybe I'm a little overwhelmed, but I still think that the Federation must have a militia. ”

"I think you have a point, but I don't think it's the right time. After all, there are less than ten people here, and we are powerless to do many things. Ryan said, spreading his hands.

"Can't you summon robots? I think they should be able to provide enough labor. Preston wondered.

Ryan couldn't help but laugh a little: "It's not a free summons, I'm just moving some things from the other world to use." But it's also a post-apocalyptic world like this, and now that's all they can support. We'll take care of the rest. ”

"Sorry, I don't know about this. Preston apologized and continued. "But others are in danger and need help, and if you want to rebuild the militia, you have to let them know that we are reliable. ”

"I'm not against helping people, but I think we'd better finish building the base in the next two days. At least we need clean water and plenty of food. Because from another world, you can't eat food for long. My friends are trying to develop high-yielding seeds that can adapt to this environment, but they need enough time and samples. ”

"Samples?" Murphy's mother pulled out several seeds from her waist bag, "Are these okay?"

"Ah, thank you so much. Ryan finished plucking out a handful of each of the several seeds, and opened the space door. The seeds were thrown in. "I think with a local sample, they should be able to go faster. ”

At the end of the discussion, Preston could only admit that a militia in which it was in existential crisis could not be recruited. If you want to find someone, you have to solve your own things.

So the final result of the discussion was to build a settlement as quickly as possible. After an afternoon when everyone was busy, Ryan set up an altar as usual to soothe the souls of the local dead. After that, using the natural affinity, we can find the best place to plant the seeds, and then add sunlight to crystallize them underneath.

After doing so, everyone in the settlement saw that the plants were fast-forwarding in a videotape, and the growth process that would have taken days or even more than a month to complete was completed in just half an hour.

So the settlement now has enough farms to feed everyone, full of mutated fruit trees, corn, melons, and carrots. This gave Ryan the nickname of a wizard in a very short period of time. Of course, this nickname made him cry and laugh, because he was a wizard in the first place.

This also made Ryan find that people in the wasteland don't seem to have a bad opinion of magic, after all, it's not easy to live in such a world, and no one will pay attention to such boring things. So Ryan began to use his magic in the open.

In addition to Ryan, Sterge also used his hands-on skills. In one afternoon, he built an electric furnace using the robot's remaining reserves of steam energy. Several wind turbines were then built to power the furnaces, and the energy tower was finally re-ignited. However, due to the lack of energy, the steam produced every day can only be used by two robots. But this also greatly reduces the amount of labor for everyone, at least a lot of heavy physical work does not need to rely on manual labor alone.

For the next week, everyone continued to strengthen their stronghold. Ryan, on the other hand, uses his natural affinity to synthesize his knowledge of plants to study native plants, and then sends the results back to the world of Plants vs. Zombies every day. and successfully persuaded Murphy's mother to get rid of her dependence on drugs.

When it finally came the weekend, Dave told Ryan that he had grown a plant that was adapted to the environment: the Energy Coffee Bean.

This coffee bean can be grown in an environment with strong radiation and can concentrate the surrounding energy in its fruit. These fruits contain even more energy than sunlight crystals, but they are too violent to be used for plant cultivation, but they can be used as a high-energy fuel to feed the energy tower. After multiple plantings at the same time, all the radiation in the environment of the area will be effectively reduced, so that other plants can be planted.

It seems that Dave has really researched a treasure, at least Ryan thinks it is no different from the legendary Garden of Eden creator. In this way, it is more and more possible to build a base in this world.
