Helen and Dave stared at each other, stunned at the same time.

In Dave's impression, Helen should still be the child who follows behind his ass, babbling and shouting for hugs.

But he ignored that in ten years, Helen had gone from a child to a slim girl.

And Helen saw through the transparent vision capsule of the scavenger mecha and saw her grandfather with gray hair, one eye socket, and even a mechanical telescopic eye.

Link was caught in the middle, looking at the two people crying left and right, and couldn't help but speak: "Although I sympathize with you two for a long time to reunite, I still have to say that this place is very dangerous, there is already a team of mechanical warriors here just now, and we may be discovered at any time." ”

Dave in the mecha hurriedly wiped a handful of tears and said, "Helen, taking you out like this will definitely be discovered, or I still want to wronged you to continue to hide in the nutrition warehouse, we lied and sent it to the experimental area for maintenance." ”

Helen nodded firmly: "I've been waiting for ten years, and I can wait for this time!" ”

Helen lay back into the nutrition chamber, and Dave closed the door of the nutrition chamber himself, sneering-

The nutrient solution begins to 'boil' and oxygenate, and soon reaches a level suitable for human lungs to breathe.

Link assists Dave in keeping the nutrient bin behind the scavenger mech, and the oxygen and electricity supplies are all connected to the nutrient bin.

Immediately after, Dave activated the button, and several folding steel plates rose from the back of the scavenger mecha, enveloping the nutrition bin and protecting it tightly.

Link couldn't help but sigh: "Your mecha is too perfect, right?" ”

Dave glanced at the tightly knit and fully protected nutrition bin on the holographic screen, and his hanging heart finally fell: "For ten years, I have to ask myself every day, if I have the opportunity to sneak into the mechanical city, what will I do to get Helen back." Conduct simulations every day, and then find your own way to find flaws. In ten years, both this mecha and the plan have matured. ”

Dave looked up at Link and said, "But the next action is no longer in my plan. It's all up to President Lin! ”

"Don't worry, with me, I will definitely be able to make your two successfully return to Shadu."

The corners of Link's mouth turned up slightly, and a strong sense of confidence emerged.

In his previous life, on the eve of the player's attack on the Machine City, Dave managed to infiltrate the Machine City, and as he said, the plan was flawless and there were no loopholes. But while escaping from Machine City, the Free Federation front began to advance, and the steel torrent of Machine City was dispatched.

Dave happened to be caught between the two armies, and in the end, in order to protect his granddaughter, he was hit by a stray bullet and unfortunately died. The grandfather and grandson have been separated for ten years, and they have been separated forever after seeing each other for less than a day. At this point, Helen had an unusual hatred for machines, and in order to completely eliminate the Mechanic God Cult, she took the initiative to devote herself to mechanical research, looking for the weaknesses of the Mechanic God Cult, fighting machines with machines, and achieving the title of [Machine Mother God] with a mortal body.

Link was unusually familiar with this episode, after all, it was a plot he had personally experienced, and it was the only B-class mission he had ever received on Wasteland.

Link and Dave went downstairs to leave the Energy Center, and they both let out a breath of cloudy air.

Dave's mission is complete, and as long as everything goes well on John's side, the operation will be a complete success.

It's just that the two of them have barely taken a few steps when the treasure hunt rat in Link's pocket squeaks in warning.

Soon, Link saw a group of mechanical warriors walking not far away, and behind them were rows of large transparent glass jars filled with gray-green solution, and Link faintly saw the shadow of a human in these jars.

"What should I do?" Dave's voice trembled a little, for fear that these mechanical warriors would see the flaws.

Link looked at it for a moment and said in a deep voice, "Don't show your timidity, follow me." ”

The two sides saw each other on the same road, hundreds of meters apart, and looked at each other.

When they gathered fifty meters together, Link was the first to speak: "How many brothers came from the experimental area?" ”

The other party gritted his teeth and pointed to the rows of large jars behind him: "Send some new batteries, why are there only two of you?" ”

Link's facial features huddled together and shook his hand: "Hey, don't mention it!" I picked out the Zealots of the Ascension Ceremony below, and as soon as I returned from the front foot, the back foot was called in to help dispose of the newly transported mummy corpses. The transport team was still in a hurry, and I and this fanatic of ascension success had just finished our work. ”

The mechanical warrior looked at Dave who was a scavenger mech on the side, and his facial expression was suddenly shocked.

"This, green energy ......"

"That's right, this pioneer resonated when he ascended!"

The mechanical warrior in charge of the rhyme looked at the dark green energy ball behind the scavenger mecha, and the envy in his eyes was about to overflow.

If you can resonate with the pioneers, at least the apostles will start in the future, and they will have access to more truth than they can be compared to mechanical warriors.

"If there's nothing to do, we'll leave first, and I'll take this newcomer to report."

The other party nodded, and the last bit of doubt vanished.

The mechanical warriors with apostolic potential are not something they can offend as minions.

The two sides staggered, and when they passed the glass jar, Link glanced at it and found that it was indeed full of people.

At this moment, Link was suddenly stunned for a moment, and saw a familiar face from the gray-green jar.

"Huh? Was she caught? Link had a lot of thoughts for a moment.

The person in the gray-green jar is none other than Arya, the first singer of Wasteland.

If you want to say that the emperor superstar in the true sense of the Wasteland is not the leader of the three cities of the Free Federation, not the leader of the major forces, nor the killer god John, there is only one real superstar at the national level in Wasteland - Arya, the wasteland singer.

Arya's singing voice is like a natural sound, and anyone who hears it will fall into the illusion created by the song.

In the past life, there was such a saying among players.

If you have 50,000 wasteland coins, will you choose to buy a good piece of equipment, or buy a ticket to the last row of the Wasteland Singer's concert?

At that time, a poll was launched on the forum, and 98% of people chose the latter.

Arya's profession is a soul singer, which is a special class after the occult singer has been transferred.

Of course, everyone flocked to listen to Arya's concert, on the one hand, it was really good, on the other hand, after listening to it, players will randomly get a variety of powerful buffs, which last for a week, and will not disappear after death, and the effect of the improvement is much stronger than a piece of equipment, which can be called a conscience BUFF machine!

Before opening up a desert dungeon or an important plot, many players will choose to listen to Arya's wasteland tour to add a powerful status to themselves and temporarily enhance their strength.

However, because Arya's wasteland tour only takes place once in each location, there are often scenes of a large number of players and NPCs chasing the Wasteland Singer's concert, which is a wonder of the wasteland.

Link distinctly remembers that a few months ago it was reported in the Shadu newspaper that the wasteland singer Arya was about to embark on a new tour, and Shadu Station was one of them. But now, the tour is suddenly gone, and I see an ...... who looks exactly the same in the mechanical city

The two of them walked away from the energy center and couldn't help but speed up their pace.

Dave could see that Link's expression had been solemn since just now, and after a little thought, he seemed to understand something.

"President Lin just saw an acquaintance in those glass jars?"

Link came back to his senses and explained casually: "It's possible that I confessed my mistake, but they just look more similar." Okay, let's not talk about it, we're almost in the experimental area, and the members of the Cult of the Mechanicus are busy here, so we're careful about what we say and do! ”

Dave nodded firmly, and finally managed to get Helen out, and this time he would not allow an accident to happen.

After entering the experimental area, the number of members of the Cult of the Mechanicus increased visibly, which was much more lively than the deserted energy area.

But with this excitement comes risks.

Because Dave's green energy ball was so eye-catching, the mechanical warriors who passed by the two of them all turned their heads to look at it in unison, and the envy in their eyes overflowed.

And some of the higher-ranking mechanical apostles also showed a rare sense of identification on their cold faces after meeting Dave.

Link's expression was relaxed. And even if Dave has a big heart, he is stunned to be stared at by so many people, and he is already sweating.

The different expressions of the two also reflect their respective identities.

A seasoned mechanical warrior who went down to pick up the Ascended, and a young fanatic who had just ascended.

Link sends a message to John on the way.

[Is your progress going well?] 】

After a few moments, John replied with a message.

[Six Inhumans were branched out, and you will know the rest when you come, (coordinates).] 】

John didn't say anything more in the message, and he knew that Link was messaging him and it must have been Dave's thing settled.

Link frowned slightly, the player was pushed away, which he didn't expect, and John was vague, which means that he had encountered something tricky that made him helpless.

If it was a few mechanical warriors who were making things difficult, Link had no doubt that John could wipe them out.

But since what left John speechless, it was clear that something had happened that was not fatal, not exposed, but difficult to deal with.

According to the coordinates sent by John, Link found one of the laboratories in the experimental area.

The architectural style of the experimental area is different from that of the energy area, and the style of the buildings here really highlights a kind of mechanical thinking.

The huge angular labs are all decked out with dust-free solar panels, reflecting the glow of other catalytic towers, roads, and neon lights in the night.

But in Link's eyes, the huge laboratory was like an eerie coffin erected.

The two stood at the door of the laboratory, Dave exhaled a breath of turbidity, and said, "After the matter here is resolved, you can go back to ......."

It's just that before Dave could finish speaking, he was stopped by Link.

Boy!

It's not done yet, so let's set up the flag.

Link felt that something was wrong when he heard the first half of the sentence, but fortunately he stopped it quickly, otherwise he really asked Dave to say the whole thing, and I am afraid it would be difficult to go back today.

Link and Dave pass through the robot's identity scan at the door and successfully enter the lab.

The situation inside the lab was as eerie as Link thought.

In the laboratory building of more than ten floors, the hall is dim and dark, and the four corners can be seen with the naked eye flashing scarlet demonic light.

This is not like an energy zone, the laboratory is related to the future development of the mechanical city, except for the mechanical giant where Dr. Zhao is located in the center, it is the most important here, there are cameras everywhere, and there is nothing to hide.

Link knows that with the ability of the Cult of the Mechanics, these cameras will not have blind spots, so every move will be carried out in surveillance, whether it is acting or speaking, he must be extremely careful.

Walking through the hall, there was only dim light in the hallway, and everything else was swallowed up by darkness.

In the huge laboratory, it was difficult to find any sound except for the footsteps of Link and Dave.

Occasionally, a robot or two, like a silent ghost, passed by, and Dave's nerves tensed to the extreme.

"Don't be nervous, you're a pioneer who has resonated with you, and no one here dares to hurt you." Link opened his mouth to soothe Dave's emotions, and Dave nodded, understanding Link's words.

The two stood in front of the elevator and pressed the button, and the elevator started to come down from the 17th floor.

While waiting for the elevator, Link used the talent [Swarm Commander], and the next second Link appeared in his mind the location of all the pets within 14.5 kilometers.

Link first manipulated the Touch Dragon God, allowing him to follow the trajectory of the Machine City on the Grand Canal in Gauria.

All attention was then put on the pets in Mechanical City.

In his consciousness, Link can clearly see the location of all pets, and the self-detonating rats are still huddled in the chassis part, and Link immediately issued an order to let all the self-detonating rats be evenly distributed in the four major areas of the mechanical city. Secondly, mobilize all the spy rats and rush to the building where the experimental area is located, ready to steal the data.

Finally, there is the silver marching ant, which has followed Link's footsteps into the experimental building at this moment, and stayed with the five rats on the basement level, waiting for Link's orders.

Link exits Commander state, exiting from his mind.

The elevator at the entrance happened to reach the first floor, and there was a clanging sound, and the elevator door opened.

John's lab is on the thirteenth floor, and its name is the Eternal Life Laboratory.

To conduct research in the Eternal Life Project.

After a few moments, the elevator reached the thirteenth floor.

As soon as the two stepped out of the elevator, their footsteps paused.

The hallway lights were an eerie dark red, and there was black mirror-like glass on both sides, and Link and Dave saw themselves in the mirror.

Link tapped his pocket lightly and motioned for the treasure hunt mouse to get to work, finding John's room.

Xiaobao timidly popped his head out of Link's pocket, and the next second he covered his eyes with two little paws, and was also frightened by the strange atmosphere in the building.

The tip of his nose twitched, analyzing the smell component of the air, trying to analyze John's familiar breath.

Creak~

Link sensed Po pointing to the location and walked over with Dave.

The entire thirteenth floor was like a huge labyrinth, and in a twist and turn, Link stopped in front of a sliding door.

Squeak squeak!

Link understands, this is it!

Hula~

Link pushed the door open, and as the door opened, the figure of John appeared in front of him, and next to him was a scientific researcher with a brain in a jar, who let out a creepy laugh: "Interesting and interesting, the memory extraction output of vegetative people has never been encountered before, and this can be regarded as one of the topics of the new research direction of the Eternal Life Project!" ”
