24: Don't blow, I know how dark you are

In the timeline of Fallout 3, the headquarters of the East Coast Brotherhood of Steel "Cathedral" is based on the famous "Pentagon", the former office of the United States Department of Defense

In the game, because of the presentation of the system, the "Pentagon", which can accommodate 20,000 or 30,000 people for work and tourism, has become an ultra-small unfinished building that can go around in five minutes.

Changed to the real version, maybe because the world is different, compared to the Pentagon in Mishan's hometown, the Pentagon in the wasteland world is so smaller.

But accommodating 10,000 people is no problem.

Similarly, in the game, even the clerks bring recruits, and even bring the puppies on the side of the road, I don't know if there are three-digit East Coast Brotherhoods, and the members have reached four figures.

The scale is close to the bomb town next to Vault 101.

And compared to the residents of Bomb Town, even if they have a house to shelter from the rain, they look like they have been malnourished for a long time, and their faces are yellow and dead.

The lives of these members of the Brotherhood of Steel are much more comfortable.

No matter what you eat, at least you'll be able to eat a full stomach, and the water you drink may not be as good as the pure water in the Vault, or at least much better than the water that the residents of Bomb Town drink.

The only ones that don't go beyond the game are the power armor that is represented by the wasteland's ultimate combat power.

Mi Shan took a cursory glance, and among the more than a thousand members of the East Coast Steel Brotherhood, there were less than fifty fully equipped power armors.

There are also about fifty or so power armors standing on the maintenance bench, more or less mutilated.

Either an arm is missing, or a leg is missing, or a half-pulled shoulder, or even a power component remains.

The East Coast Brotherhood, which does not have the ability to produce power armor, can only live on a patchwork basis.

The Lyon Glory Regiment, led by Sarah Lyons to reinforce Radio Galaxy, is equivalent to a quarter to a third of the combat strength of the entire East Coast Brotherhood.

In this way, in order to cover up the embarrassment caused by Mi Rin just now, Sarah Lyon also introduced to Mi Shan in a proud tone:

"It was because my father found the cathedral's pre-war weapons storage that the East Coast Brotherhood, which was originally just an expedition, developed a strength no less than the West Coast headquarters."

"Didn't you miss something?" Standing in the inner square of the cathedral, Mishan relied on the power armor on his body and the "power hammer" in his hand to attract the attention of those Brotherhood of Steel recruits and their instructors.

It was intended to remind recruits not to be distracted during training, but it turned out that even these instructors could not do it.

The story of being able to face the super mutant behemoths has spread among these Brotherhood of Steel knights.

The whispered discussion between them made Misar seem to go back to the time when he was at the Lakeside Town Hotel and listened to those adventurers talk about dragon slayers.

It's just that the protagonist of those topics at that time was Greenhill, and now the protagonist of the conversation is himself...... Mishan had a very interesting feeling, and he pretended to be forced in vain.

"Hmm, missed?" Sarah Lyons looked at her inexplicably because she didn't understand what Misr was saying.

"Have you forgotten? Or is it ...... The Brotherhood members who really remember the story of Pittsburgh are all on the side of the Brotherhood Forsakens? Mishan said two pieces of confidential information in one sentence.

Compared to the East Coast Brotherhood, which is the main body, it is known for being a good man fighting fires everywhere in the wasteland all day long.

Brotherhood outcasts who follow fundamentalists are less famous.

With the exception of God-of-God players like Misr Shan, most of the wasteland dwellers still think that the two sides are the same force, knowing that the Brotherhood Forsakens are completely divided from each other to the East Coast Brotherhood of Steel.

Of course, what shocked Sarah Leon even more was not that Misr Shan knew about the Brotherhood outcasts and the East Coast Brotherhood of Steel parting ways, but that she knew that Pittsburgh was a record of "black history" for the East Coast Brotherhood of Steel.

"Why do you know?" Sarah Lyon's face was originally very ruddy because of the optimization of the mod......

Although at that time, Sarah Lyons was still very young, but vaguely still had a little impression.

What's more, her father, Elder Owen Lyon, who treated her as an heir, did not hide it from his daughter in this regard.

Indeed, as Rice Shan said, most of the Brotherhood of Steel knights who knew about the "black history" have become Brotherhood outcasts.

Many of those who remain have little understanding of what the Brotherhood of Steel did in Pittsburgh in the first place.

knows, like Sarah Leon, to forget the original thing as much as possible.

This parting of the ways of most of the solid forces has caused the current combat effectiveness of the Eastern Steel Brotherhood to be somewhat uneven.

Not very surprised by Sarah Lyon's reaction, Mishan took off his helmet, handed it to Greenhill beside him, and said, "There are few things in this world that I don't know. ”

Watching Sarah Leon staggering away, Mi Rin, who didn't know why, looked up at Mi Shan and asked, "Dad, what did you tell her?" ”

"Hmm......" wanted to take off the power armor that he had been wearing for more than a week, but Mishan, who was defeated in Greenhill's serious eyes, did not directly answer Mirin's question.

Instead, he asked rhetorically in a very subtle tone, "What do you think of these Brotherhoods of Steel?" ”

"What will happen to these Brothers of Steel?" Knowing that Father Mishan was asking about his own senses of these Brotherhoods of Steel, Mi Rin thought for a while, shook his finger and said:

"Although I'm a little stupid, my brain is a little wooden, and my combat effectiveness is also very rookie (compared to Mishan Dad), but at least it's pretty good."

It is only natural that Mirin, who has received an "orthodox" education in the shelter for a long time, will have some good feelings for the "orderly and kind" guys of the East Coast Brotherhood of Steel.

"Where's the good?" Mishan knew the answer, but Mishan still asked the question.

"Judging by their willingness to help the wasteland dwellers clean up those big green bad guys, it's clear that they're at least good people."

Compared with what he saw with his own eyes, more about the deeds of the Brotherhood of Steel was told to Mi Rin by Migo, a popular anchor of Galaxy Radio.

Having been mentally prepared for the situation in this wasteland, and having killed those who wanted to kill him, Mi Rin felt that the Brotherhood of Steel with the idea of "helping others" could indeed be considered a good person.

"Good guy, I don't deny that." Seeing that there was no major problem with Mi Rin's three views, Mi Shan nodded with satisfaction and said, "But only now." ”

Whether in the past or in the future, these steel brothers are still a little far from the evaluation of "good people". ”

"Why? Father. "After all, it's a game character.,There's no god perspective like Mi Shan.,And Mi Rin, who has played several experiences.,I don't know a lot of secrets...... Or maybe she would know later, but she didn't know now.

"Originating from the post-war Brotherhood of Steel fundamentals, it's not about helping the wasteland rebuild human civilization." As Mishan spoke, some of the Brotherhood of Steel recruits and instructors had already approached.

As soon as Mishan spoke, the expressions of several of the older instructors changed, and Greenhill just glared slightly, which made them lose the courage to stop Mishan from talking.

"What's that?" Judging from the reaction of this group of Brotherhood of Steel knights, Mi Rin, who knew that Father Mi Shan's next words must be very exciting, curious.

"The Brotherhood of Steel's fundamentals are to collect pre-war technology from the wasteland and prevent its misuse, on the grounds that most people are not ready to use it...... Turning the world into a nuclear war like it is now is a testament to this. ”

"If you meet someone who doesn't listen to dissuasion and still goes their own way, the Brotherhood of Steel will directly destroy the other party......"

To put it simply, in the eyes of the Brotherhood of Steel, although technology is not good or bad, it must be bad if it is used by others other than themselves.

In some ways, the Brotherhood of Steel, which follows this philosophy, has ruined many chances for humanity to rebuild civilization...... The reason is simply that "technology is not allowed"

"As for why I mention Pittsburgh...... Misr Shan didn't care about the group of Brotherhood of Steel recruits with a drastic change in expression, the puzzled knights, and the small number of instructors who bowed their heads and refused to meet the gaze of their comrades.

Then he told Mirin about the plot that requires DLC to be installed, "The predecessor of the East Coast Brotherhood of Steel, the Western Brotherhood of Steel Expeditionary Force led by Sarah Lyon's father, Elder Owen Lyon. ”

"When passing by Pittsburgh, which was subjected to targeted nuclear bombing because it was a heavy industrial city before the war."

"In order to avoid losing too much for yourself."

"Elder Owen Lyons is very interested in the various radiation mutant creatures that are entrenched in Pittsburgh, as well as ...... Those "humans" who were more or less mutated by the high-intensity radiation were given extermination orders. ”

When Mi Shan was spoiling, the tone he used was not emotional, neither belittling nor praising it, just stating one thing from God's point of view.

But those Brotherhood of Steel members who first learned about the black history couldn't stand it...... Normally, they should have questioned Rice Shan.

It's a pity that those seniors bowed their heads and were silent, so they couldn't say the words of questioning.

Mi Rin also looked like he was trying to pick up the three views that had been shattered.

Greenhill and Jiajia, the latter trimming his nails, and the former debugging Mishan-sama's helmet.

All of them looked very calm.
