(Thanks to Andychoi for the tip...... Old readers, your support is the motivation for me to keep updating)

Having nearly completed the two main missions of "sweeping up the remnants of the Enclave" and "clearing out the super mutants and berserk zombies that threaten the safety of the wasteland's residents", the Brotherhood of Steel in the Special Administrative Region attempts to build a new stronghold using pre-war livelihood technology.

There are two core technologies for the main application of this base, both of which are related to Poole. One of them is another "Garden of Eden Creator" that Poole found based on map clues left by Leeds and others, this time performing the original design to make the polluted land fertile and suitable for cultivation again. The remainder was Poole's concrete-making and pre-war construction techniques, and the new base was no longer built from a pile of rubble that had been moved from elsewhere.

Considering that it could not be too far away from the Pentagon's camp to lose its support, the Brotherhood of Steel decided to set up this stronghold in the area south of the nuclear bomb town near the water source while retaining a large amount of land.

The construction process was a bit of a twist and turn, but with the complete pre-war technical data as the basis and the assistance of the Brotherhood of Steel technicians with their own extraordinary skills, the basic skeleton of this stronghold was quickly formed. According to Leeds, these are 'ugly to death' matchbox-like little dilapidated houses, but in the eyes of the wasteland dwellers, these are brand new houses with no smell of war!

This new stronghold is not the usual "Warrior's Frontline Supply Depot", but rather an attempt to "absorb the Wasteland Wanderers and open a new route for the Brotherhood of Steel". As for the wasteland vagrants who choose to join the Brotherhood of Steel, their obligation is to submit to the Brotherhood of Steel's administration, to farm or breed on the land they have assigned, and to pay a portion of the proceeds as taxes, and their right is to live in these houses, to be protected by the Brotherhood of Steel, and to obtain or land or livestock for production - the ratio of this system to this tax varies from one person to another, and some consider it to be the tyranny of the Brotherhood of Steel. Some people think that what they need is freedom, they don't need to have a manager on their heads, and some people think that they can have such a tough backstage to stand up, and it is very worthwhile to hand over some more bottle caps, and survival is the most important thing...... Anyway. The Brotherhood of Steel doesn't force it, just casually advertises, and these houses are rushed to be wanted.

The Wastelanders had a smooth initial move-in, the average quality of the Wastelanders was very secure in a negative way, but as the power-armored knights maintained order again and again, they finally learned to be quiet. It was only a long time before the Creator of Eden improved the land, combined with the seeds of pre-war plants it contained, to produce crops - wheat, corn, potatoes, tomatoes, apple trees (seedlings), and so on. Of course, much of the first harvest was kept as seeds for the expansion of the farm. But Poole decided to share a small portion with the citizens...... Maybe it only solves the problem of food and clothing for one meal, but please don't underestimate the impact of a "fresh" meal on the wastelanders who are accustomed to the food and flesh of mutants from two hundred years ago, and they see the "future" in this stronghold!

Since then, the atmosphere of the base has changed, and growth has accelerated. In terms of agriculture, the Brotherhood of Steel no longer needs to supervise the farming of the wastelanders, and the most important problem to be solved now is "how to make more land fertile", and the role of the Garden of Eden Creator is 'expendable' after all; Unfortunately, there are no animal embryos in the Garden of Eden Creator. Therefore, only the two cows, the bighorn sheep and the mutant elk, are three relatively docile mutant creatures that can really be raised; In terms of infrastructure, Poole gradually perfected the stronghold according to the "city" as seen from the television set in Leeds' temporary villa, with smooth streets, water pipes, excrement pipes, functional building divisions, and even the final "What's the point?" "Tree planting on the side of the road.

This new stronghold evolved from a "stronghold of the Brotherhood of Steel" to a "city of the Brotherhood of Steel", and in the end, even the most stubborn old-fashioned faction, who was simply pressed by Elder Lane, shouted "Why can the wasteland nomads live in such a beautiful city?" And we veterans can only hide in the Pentagon camp against broken stones and rusty iron?! Then all the equipment and supplies were moved to "Brother City", and the Pentagon camp became a "Washington, D.C. supply base" instead.

…… Well, they may still be obsessed with the technology of warfare, new power armor, plasma weapons, and Flying Bird helicopters from the Enclave. However, in the eyes of the members of the Brotherhood of Steel in other regions, they are already deviant members.

"Wow, pregnant women don't have to go out of their way~~" Under the introduction of Poole, the tour guide, Lez and others, who finally knew the development history of "Brother City", just walked into a pre-war building guarded by knights, and saw a blonde woman walking up with a big belly.

"Hmph, this thing is not difficult for the leader of the Lane Glory Regiment!" Naturally, Sarah Lane is a woman with a big belly, a female man who can go to the battlefield, even if she is about to become someone else's mother, she is still a female man.

"Uh, Poole, are you sure you don't have to care about your daughter or son?" Leon smiled wryly.

"Haha...... It's always been like this...... It's better to say that it's already the limit for her not to wear power armor......" the child's father said helplessly.

"Poole, I said I was going to wear power armor a few months ago...... Even I wouldn't be so irresponsible. Sarah said expressionlessly.

"Aha~~" Although there are two partners with a charm of 10 to grab favorability, one brings his own wife and the other runs around the wasteland for good equipment, and Poole is a good young man who finally wins the beauty. And now, he is about to be upgraded from a husband to a father.

"Haha, don't worry, Poole, I'll make it impossible for Sarah to wear power armor from now on......" Elder Ryan also walked out with a bunch of guards...... He was originally "old and strong", but now he looks more like "about to die", well, after all, at this age.

"Elder!"

"At this time, I should call my father...... Phew, the new Elder can't always be on the front line. ”

"............" Sarah actually thinks Poole is more suitable to be an elder, but ...... To subdue the diehards of the Brotherhood of Steel, only Elder Lane's own daughter could possibly do so.

"I'm sorry to hear the annoying family quarrels......," Elder Ryan held out his hand, "It's been a long time, friend from another world." ”

"Long time no see, Elder," although he doesn't respect this old man like the people of the Brotherhood of Steel, he doesn't have anything that Leeds hates, so he replied very politely, "Although we are planning to go to the West Coast, we also chose the time point for you to have similar actions through 'prayer' when we crossed, but let's put this aside in advance~"

"--I'll bother you here for a few days, it's okay~~?"

"Haha, of course~~" (To be continued.) )
