Chapter Seventy-One: Tepeni's End

"Anyone? I'll come in. ”

A clear voice rang out in the wilderness, and then the owner of the voice pushed open the door and walked in.

It's only been two or three weeks since he's last been here, but it's been a lot of people. The once classic and ornate décor is now in ruins, and the Tepeni Building, the largest aristocratic apartment in the wasteland, is now unpopular, and smells of death everywhere.

"Hmm...... Good smell. Su Jing sniffed the faint smell of blood in the air and stretched his shoulders and limb joints, "It looks like Tepeni has done something very interesting." ”

Along the way, there are corpses of dead residents everywhere, as well as zombie remains interspersed within. There are bullet marks from guns, scars from blunt impacts, and marks of physical combat. It appears that the entire interior of the building is in chaos, and there are some traces of what appear to be dragging corpses. The head of the front desk is now lying in his seat, his neck torn off in unison, and his head is missing.

Su Jing crossed the front desk and tried to press the button of the elevator, but fortunately, the power had not been interrupted and the elevator was still running. When I opened the elevator door, I saw the corpses of a mercenary and two zombies lying inside, and the three of them were entangled with each other, and they couldn't tell who was who for a long time.

Su Jing kicked the corpse out of the elevator with a few feet, and then pressed the button on the top floor. The elevator clanged and went up. He hummed a minor tune, then suddenly looked up at the top of the elevator that seemed to be somewhat deformed.

Twenty seconds later, a chunk of the top cover was removed by an oxyacetylene cutter, and a headless corpse fell from the roof of the elevator with a thud. Su Jing looked up and seemed to have fallen straight down the elevator shaft on the top floor, and then smashed on the elevator.

The elevator door on the top floor was open, and Su Jing stepped out of it, and the floor seemed to be dried bloodstains, rustling on it. Su Jing recalled the layout of the place, and then walked into Tepeni's luxurious bedroom.

As soon as I opened the door, the rancid smell came to my nose. There were four or five heads on Tepenny's plush bed, including the heads of the mercenary captain Gustavo and the previous zombie Roy, as well as an unknown blonde lady and several other residents of the mansion.

"There's a guest coming——! Aha, I think I remember you! A hoarse voice came from the balcony, a super mutant - perhaps not completely alienated, his body was not particularly stout, and his intelligence seemed to remain normal.

Tepenny, a super mutant, is still wearing his fuchsia coat, but the velvet suit is now tattered, with many bullet holes and tearing damage. With the sniper rifle on his back, he calmly walked in from the balcony, and then Ha Lu Ha Da Lu laughed.

"Oh, Dr. Su Jing! It's been a long time, but let me introduce me, this is my captain of security, Gustavo, my richest tenant, Mr. Cheng, and the Earl of Wellington II, a respectable gentleman and nobleman. It looks like you've noticed this lovely beauty, Susan, a docile and well-read lady. Bernie? Bernie? Where are you? Pour a cup of tea for your guests! ”

Su Jing found an armchair and sat down, watching Tepeni greet the head on the bed, chat, and sing a one-man show...... This cunning and ruthless businessman has undoubtedly fallen into mutation and madness.

"Mr. Tepenny? Mr. Tepenny? Su Jing shouted twice in a row before turning the super mutant's attention back to him, "Your body seems to be a little unwell." ”

"Yes...... Recently, my spirit is really not very good, I always have hallucinations, and I see some very scary things......" Tepeni creaked and sat on his big bed, "To be honest, Dr. Su, I haven't fallen asleep for more than a week, I have insomnia all night long, even if I occasionally fall asleep, I have nightmares, and I will wake up all of a sudden......"

Su Jing leaned forward, his eyes sparkling and asked, "I have studied some knowledge of psychology, maybe I can do some psychological counseling for you that can soothe your spirit...... Come, Mr. Tepeni, tell me about your dreams. What did you see in the nightmare? ”

"Hmm......" The super mutant held his chin with both hands and began to recall, his eyes gradually changing, "I dreamed...... I felt like I had become a monster and people were afraid of me...... And then I started killing people...... In my dreams, I was strong, thick-skinned, and murderous...... Gustavo tried to stop me, but I killed him...... There are many more...... Then they started rebelling against me, and I ......"

Tepenny took a long breath, then exhaled slowly, and then continued, "Then I opened the gate and let in the zombies outside the door, I used to hate them and hunt them, but now I think they are my companions...... By the time they had slaughtered the edifice, there would be only a few of them left. And then I was like...... Even they are afraid of me. Then ......"

"Let me guess, and then you kill these zombies too, right?" Su Jing reminded.

"............" Tepeni nodded silently.

"Hmm...... Have you ever read a book called "Dr. Incarnate"? It was a novel from the pre-war world, and it was very interesting. But we'll leave that topic aside for now...... I think your symptoms are due to recent stress and an unstable sense of identity. The treatment is very simple, drink more milk before going to bed, do more exercise, and you can naturally fall into a dreamless sleep at night...... From what I've observed, you're still stuck in this kind of ...... because you live here all day, you don't exercise, and you think too much Mental illness. ”

"Do more exercise? Well...... Makes sense, I've been more ...... lately. Ahem, stuff yourself in your room all day, thank you, Dr. Su. The super mutant nodded again and again, he shook hands with Su Jing, and then suddenly said, "Oh yes, I forgot, Dr. Su, what are you here for?" I forgot about it, it's so rude. ”

"This is the Group's after-sales service." Su Jing asked with a smile, "How did you feel after the injection of the medicine that was given to you last time?" Do you feel like you're getting a lot younger? ”

"Haha Originally, I thought I was going to die in a few years, but after the injection, I felt that I was much stronger, much younger, and my physical strength became much stronger...... It's like going back to when I was twenty years old, and even better than when I was twenty. ”

"Hmm...... That's good. Su Jing stood up and patted the dust on his body, "The after-sales investigation is complete, and our transaction is completely over." See you soon, Mr. Tepenny. ”

"See you soon, Dr. Sue."

——————————————

After taking the elevator downstairs, Su Jing spent twenty minutes finding the location of the weapon storage warehouse, where the door was open, and almost all the weapons inside had been taken, which showed the fierce battle between zombies and residents before. Su Jing rummaged for a long time to find the small box of nuclear batteries, and he took out the card to fill it.

Item cards that can be used as weapons usually have an "ammo" setting, so it would be too extravagant and wasteful to spend a blank item card to carry even bullets. The center of the world has item cards that specialize in carrying ammunition and energy packs, and item cards that need to consume energy and bullets also have the amount of ammunition they can carry. Just like the [Experimental Hellfire Power Armor] that Su Jing got needs to be powered by nuclear batteries, it has an initial nuclear battery storage of [0/50].

And if he is carded like his ion pistol, the ion pistol, which is also powered by a nuclear battery, will have a [0/15] ammo load. The amount of ammunition can only be filled with intact nuclear batteries in the card, and resources can be shared at any time between different item cards if the same ammunition or energy is used.

That is to say, if Su Jing has a [Ion Pistol] and an [Experimental Hellfire Power Armor] on his body, then the total ammunition load on his body will be 65 nuclear batteries, and if he wants to carry more, he needs to turn the blank prop card into an ammunition card that specializes in carrying ammunition.

Fortunately, there were no high-grade guns with nuclear batteries here, so these powerful batteries were covered in dust here until they were thrown into Su Jing's arms.

"Forty-three...... Forty-four...... Forty-five...... There are a total of forty-five nuclear batteries, which is probably enough for Hellfire armor for nine thousand years. Su Jing slightly calculated the daily power consumption of the Hellfire Armor, and then nodded, "But considering the inevitable increase in power after the modification, the use time may be shortened by a thousand times." ”

Nuclear batteries can be said to be one of the most unscientific technical products in the radiation world, the miniaturization of nuclear fusion and put into production, almost become a commonly used power supply for all levels of society, it can be seen that both safety and practicality have reached a very high level. The fact that the world world with such a high-energy technique would still fight because of oil resources made Su Jing feel very incredible.

For now, the energy of these nuclear batteries is more than enough for him to use, and by the time he is strong enough, it goes without saying that he will be able to find a more practical and convenient energy supply by then.

“…… And also...... A day or two? Su Jing calculated the time slightly, "I have to hurry back...... For a better tomorrow for the wasteland, and for the revival of human civilization. ”

He shrugged his shoulders.
