Chapter 34 The Song of Nuka
Lucky 38 at the lowest level of the underground weapons testing ground.
The center of the tall and open space is set up to look like a battlefield, with walls, trenches, and targets...... Although it occupies a small area, it has all kinds of organs.
Long Jing stood in front of the target with a sci-fi-style firearm, the weapon in his hand had an off-white all-metal body, and the handle of the gun was made of red shirt wood. The caliber of the gun was large, almost twenty millimeters, but the barrel was very short, and the length of the whole gun was not long, about the same as an ordinary shotgun.
However, this is not a weapon that determines its power by caliber, and if you look into the barrel, you can see that the lens is almost directly sealed to the muzzle.
This is an energy weapon - a holographic rifle.
The gift that Miss Postman gave him before leaving, though it was unknown why she was keen to give weapons - ED-E was undoubtedly a weapon - perhaps it was a custom in the wasteland, after all, this is a world where people can be killed at any time without carrying a weapon.
However, Long Jing is still very happy to receive this gift.
There is only one holographic rifle in the game. It was made by Veronica's mentor Iliga, the former elder of the Brotherhood of Steel's Mojave branch, who was undoubtedly a genius who could turn almost any technology into a weapon that could be used. Long Jing had once had the idea of recruiting this person, but now it was too late to say anything.
The holographic rifle in his hand is a weapon from the DLC Dead Money, and since Miss Postman has obtained it, it means that she has already been to the Casino of Madre - the reason why Miss Postman, who left for New Vegas before him, arrived so long in the evening, and she was kidnapped by Frankenstein - by this time, Elder Illiga is either dead or locked in a vault that cannot be opened again.
Well, even the latter, so many days should have starved to death inside. Even if he dared to go now, he probably wouldn't even have a chance to collect true spirits.
Shaking his head, Long Jing raised his holographic rifle and aimed at the target attached to the thickened concrete wall.
"Z-"
As the sound of electricity passing through sounded, more than ten blue holographic squares shot out from the muzzle of the gun, and the energy cubes rose when they shot out, and the largest pieces grew to the size of a basketball in a blink of an eye. These square-shaped holographic bullets were extremely fast, and they hit the target paper with a bang, and the dust flew in an instant.
When the dust cleared, the wall underneath was exposed with a hole more than a meter in diameter, as well as a shattered target paper, which had some scorched marks.
“…………”
Long Jing frowned, the power of this gun was not as powerful as he imagined.
"Although the holographic force field moves at high speeds generates high temperatures, the main lethality of this gun comes from the impact of the holographic projection bullets. This weapon can shoot holographic projections at five times the speed of sound, but the problem is that the lack of quality of holographic projections makes it difficult to take advantage of the speed that comes with it. ”
Mr. Yes's voice echoed through the empty proving ground.
"The designers of this weapon made a mistake, the holographic projection force field was not suitable as an offensive weapon. But it's very useful on defense. ”
"Speaking of which, that's also a holographic force field, right?" Long Jing looked at the viewing platform above the test site, which was separated from the test site by a thin blue light screen, Long Jing had tried, and even with a bazooka, he could not shake the seemingly thin layer of defense. However, Long Jing didn't care about it at the time, because it couldn't prevent the power of the Holy Light.
"Before the war, holographic force field technology was only an experimental technology, and House only got this experimental product through relationships. However, it now seems that the technology is much more mature than before, and perhaps some people will continue to develop it after the war. ”
Indeed, someone continues to develop the holographic force field, a technology developed by the United States before the war at a research base in the Great Mountains, which was not attacked in the event of a nuclear war. And several of the leading scientists in it took out their brains and put them in the machine after the war to continue their lives, and they are still alive to this day.
However, because the technology is not mature enough, the minds of several scientists who have become the existence of the so-called "thought tank" quickly become confused, and it is difficult to continue the development of technology. Overall, though, the technology of the Great Mountains is still advancing, albeit very slowly. It's a pity that until now, Long Jing has never found the location of the Great Mountain Range.
The things there have been coveted by Long Jing for a long time. Although it is not as advanced as the technology left by the second generation, it is not advanced enough, so it can be used to lay the foundation for his own scientific and technological system.
But it doesn't matter if you can't get it, anyway, the infinite world has something for him to obtain, and now he has a set of robotics technology from Mr. House, which is not too difficult and advanced, and it is also very comprehensive. Coupled with Dr. Usaki's basic human enhancement implant technology and Dr. Emily's electronic technology, it is possible to start building a new technology system.
The harvest of this trip to the Fallout World is good, at least much better than the previous two times.
It's holographic projection technology...... Long Jing looked at the holographic rifle in his hand thoughtfully. He had a vague idea in his heart, but he would have to wait until he returned to Heaven to test it.
"Speaking of which, our Miss Postman should be almost to the Great Rift Valley, right? It's been almost a week. ”
Back on the top floor, Long Jing asked the Flying Pig who was lying on the table doing nothing.
"It's up to her to see if she's attracted to other DLCs." The Flying Pig turned around and said lazily.
"This is also ......" Long Jing sighed, Miss Postman's curiosity was not ordinary. Speaking of which, he also specially provided her with transportation, just hoping that she would not waste time on the road. Thinking of the means of transportation, Long Jing couldn't help but worry about another thing.
"Hey pig, you said she wouldn't have an accident, right?"
Although it was just a small electric donkey, because there was no place to charge it, she was slightly replaced with a nuclear one. A miniature fusion battery is enough for her to run from the East Coast to the West Coast of the United States. However, the speed has also been increased from the original maximum of 60 yards to 140 yards...... There are no other cars in the wasteland, but the roads are not in great condition.
"If you're so worried, wouldn't it be better if you just went by yourself?" The Flying Pig said helplessly.
"As a monarch, how can you benefit from being under a dangerous wall."
There are a large number of nuclear warheads under the Great Rift, although most of them are no longer capable of nuclear reactions and can only be used as a large ordinary warhead, but the warheads that can still be activated are enough to destroy the Great Rift Valley a few more times.
"That's why Ben Pig said......"
The Flying Pig just habitually wanted to preach, and suddenly there was a sudden light outside the window, and a white light lit up from the east, and in an instant, the entire field of vision became white, and the light like the Genesis lasted for a short time, and a huge fireball appeared at the end of the eastern horizon.
"Looks like we don't have to guess......" said the Flying Pig.
"To the east? It seems that it was Caesar's Legion who was bombed. ”
Long Jing took his sunglasses from the space bracelet and put them on, watching the devastating light emitted by this terrifying weapon created by humans.
He has not been afraid of nuclear weapons since he discovered that [Divine Purification] can remove radiation, but the shock brought by this ultimate weapon of human civilization has not diminished at all, and the scene like the second sun rising makes Long Jing really feel the horror of representing one of the ultimate forces of the universe.
Two hundred years after the Doomsday War, the people of the wasteland have once again seen the power that once destroyed the world.
"Good thing I have the Holy Shield......"
Long Jing couldn't help but congratulate himself on choosing a good starting career. Although the Holy Shield technique is certainly not omnipotent, it can at least guarantee that you will not die in most cases.
"Your Majesty! Congratulations on the realization of your plan. "Yes Man's avatar appeared on the nearest security robot," but I still recommend that you turn on the missile defense system, no one can guarantee that the missile guidance system from more than 200 years ago is still intact, is it? ”
"Not necessarily." Long Jing waved his hand, "It's all blown up......"
Before he could finish his sentence, another dazzling light lit up.
This time it's the West, which is NCR territory. After Caesar's Legion, their old rival, the Two-Headed Bear, also received a nuclear bomb.
"It seems that I chose to blow up both sides......"
Although Edna was sent to ensure the launch of the nuclear bomb, it was up to Miss Postman to decide who exactly to launch and how many to launch - yes, to let her bear the blame. Although he may not be entering this world, he still doesn't want to put himself on his back just in case
As long as she doesn't drop a nuclear bomb on New Vegas's head anyway.
In the game, there are several options for not blowing up anyone, blowing Caesar or NCR alone, and blowing up both, and now it seems that Miss Postman is planning to give a nuclear bomb on both sides.
Just as he was thinking this, the light of the third nuclear explosion lit up.
"Ben Zhu thinks it's better for you to turn on the missile defense system." The Flying Pig said leisurely.
“…………”
At this time, the fourth flash appeared.
"I think so too."
Long Jing wiped the cold sweat from his forehead, he was a little unsure now, what was going on inside the Great Rift Valley, and how many missiles were there that could be launched? Although Edna was there, there was no means of communication because of the distance, so she could only know that Edna was still alive and kicking based on the empathy brought by the gods......
But what's going on with this nuclear bomb delivery? It couldn't be Miss Postman who was put down by Ulysses' middle two, right? He remembered that Ulysses had plans to send all the forces of the Mojave one by one to nuclear warheads.
Fortunately, the nukes did not end up on New Vegas, and even except for the first two that hit the edge of the Mojave, the other nukes left thirteen towering mushrooms to the west or east, which were the territory of the legion and the NCR.
"Looks like Miss Postman succeeded." Long Jing breathed a sigh of relief and said with a smile, "Maybe we can start preparing a celebration banquet for her." ”
What he didn't expect was that Miss Postman never made it back to New Vegas.
