Chapter 7: Steel City, Wasteland Market
After the subway arrived in the central city, Chen Ya and others got off one after another, and at the same time Xiaolong said:
"Lao Tie, let's go to the distribution center to guard first, don't let the bastards of 202 occupy all the good places."
"Okay."
Tiezi nodded in agreement, although the floating city has not yet begun to take out the garbage, as the leader of the 404 Vault, he must guard the garbage distribution center in advance to gain more advantages for his side.
Immediately afterwards, the group walked to the exit of the platform, while Chen Ya looked at the little giant-like old iron, with strong muscles, like a bodybuilder, and his skin was full of metallic texture.
In appearance, it looks very much like the Colossus in the Marvel movies in the previous life.
In addition, Lao Tie's arms are thicker than Chen Ya's waist, not to mention his height, he is one meter five, but he is barely close to Lao Tie's waist, and he has to look up to see the other party's face.
paralysis, this gap......
Chen Ya couldn't laugh or cry, fortunately Tiezi was their boss, otherwise it would undoubtedly be a big trouble to encounter this kind of opponent.
After a while, everyone walked out of the subway station, and a steel city full of science fiction appeared in front of them.
All the buildings, ranging from a few storeys high to dozens or hundreds of storeys, are all made of metal.
This is the central part of the city.
And at this moment, Xiaolong spoke:
"Alex, I'll go with Lao Tie first."
"Let's go."
Big Nose urged, and immediately after, Xiaolong and Tiezi gathered a group of teams from the 404 Vault and quickly rushed to the garbage distribution center.
It's still early, Chen Ya and they don't need to follow, and Alex asked:
"Where are we going?"
"Go to the market."
Chen Ya proposed, and Niu Hide also nodded in agreement:
"That's right, I'm thirsty."
There are a number of facilities in the central city, including free drinking water.
Of course, there are also children's shelters.
Regarding water resources, although high-quality water sources are relatively scarce in the wasteland world, human science and technology are very advanced and can dig up groundwater, so there is no shortage of water in the gathering place.
At Chen Ya's suggestion, the five of them entered the central city and shuttled between the steel jungles, intending to go to the wasteland market.
Wasteland Market
This is the Fallout Age, which has produced trading institutions, where you can buy and sell freely, while also being able to buy, whatever you want.
At this moment, the crowd on the way to the market was dense, although all of them were mutants, but Chen Ya found that about two-thirds of the human beings were yellow-skinned Asians.
China, China, deserves to be a superpower.
Even in the era of fallout, the concept of the state no longer exists, but the Chinese still make up a large proportion of the human world.
Of course!
This also made Chen Ya more and more suspicious that the Floating City was the magic capital of his previous life.
Not long after, Chen Ya and his friends came to the wasteland market.
It is a very large trading center, surrounded by not only shops, but also many vendors selling all kinds of equipment, weapons, materials, and so on.
"Drink water."
Niu Hide said, and the five of them came to a free drinking point.
It was a small fountain with more than a dozen streams of transparent groundwater, gushing out incessantly.
Wow... Wow...
The five friends naturally opened their mouths to drink, Chen Ya drank a few sips of groundwater, felt that the water quality was okay, and then looked at the hot wasteland market.
In front of almost every stall, there are people picking up items, and the vast majority of them are adult looters, who are the only ones who have enough Wasteland Coins to buy items.
Of course, there are other professions besides looters.
For example, chefs, mechanics, weapon builders, etc., as long as they master a life skill, they can also survive in the wasteland.
"Look! That's power armor? ”
At this time, Niu Leather raised his hand and pointed at a human wearing silver alloy armor, whose chest flashed with blue light, in Chen Ya's opinion, just like the Iron Man in the Marvel movies in his previous life.
Obviously, this is a hunter.
And this hunter in power armor also has a lot of equipment on his body, such as a micromonitor on his right wrist, a flashlight hanging from his waist, and a long black knife behind his back.
"What kind of gear are they?"
The big nose said with a puzzled face, and Chen Ya didn't know what it was, but fortunately, there happened to be an adult mutant drinking water, so he looked at the cool Iron Man and said with envy:
"A02 - Melee Power Armor, equipped with a handheld instrument, plasma lightsaber, high-frequency electromagnetic oscillation knife......"
Handheld
Plasma lightsaber
High-frequency electromagnetic oscillating knife
Chen Ya was stunned when he heard it, no wonder the hunter was awesome, just that electromagnetic oscillation knife, what mutated creatures, what abilities, one knife can chop you!
These sci-fi weapons that belonged to the concept in the previous life, but I didn't expect that in the wasteland world, they were all developed, and they still belong to standard equipment.
And at this moment, Cowhide innocently asked:
"How many caps do I need to buy that power armor?"
"Bottle caps?"
The adult mutant who had just finished explaining almost didn't choke to death by the water, but it was not strange to see that these were children, and then said with a smile:
"Probably hundreds of thousands of wasteland coins, that is, steel hammers."
Hundreds of thousands of steel hammers?
The friends were stunned, even Chen Ya was confused, after all, they were still living in the world of bottle caps, and hundreds of thousands of waste land coins were completely beyond their imagination.
"That's how many bottle caps are there......"
But seeing that the cowhide was breaking his fingers, Chen Ya couldn't help covering his face and said:
"Don't count, that's millions of caps."
Millions......
The three of them, big nose, cowhide, and purple scales, were all dumbfounded, except for the sick girl who had no concept of money, and the three of them were all stupefied by Chen Ya's words.
After all, steel hammers are for adults, and bottle caps are for children in children's shelters, which they come into contact with every day, but millions of bottle caps, even if they live for several lifetimes, will not be able to use them up.
Seeing the children in a daze, the adult mutant shook his head and left.
Children have children's worlds, and adults have adults' worlds, which in itself is not comparable.
Smack! ~
Chen Ya clapped his hands, and then smiled:
"Okay, we're all coming to our senses, let's take a look at the market while there's still time."
Hearing this, the three of them came back to their senses, and then the five friends walked to those stalls, although they didn't have the money to buy, but it was still okay to see.
And the reason why Chen Ya proposed to come to the market is actually to have his own goals, after all, his body is still suffering from tertiary radiation sickness, and now he must find the corresponding medicine, otherwise it will also be life-threatening after a long time.
Even if you can't afford it, at least you need to know the price, and you can use it to understand the price of goods in the gathering place.
As for the hunter he saw before, wearing power armor, Chen Ya didn't have much psychological gap, but was full of confidence.
He believed that sooner or later, he would become a powerful hunter himself.
After all, this body is still very young, although the world has changed.
But in any era......
Children's potential is always limitless!
