The rolling thunder in the distance disturbed the tranquility of Qingquan City.

Behind the ruins buried by the snow curtain, in the Boulder City, which sits on the edge of the Third Ring Road, people walking through the corners and alleys raise their heads.

"That's ...... What was that? ”

"Thunder is quite rare on a snowy day."

"That's not Thunder...... It's kind of like something blew up. ”

"North? I've heard that it's been a long time. ”

"I don't think I'll be in Qingquan City, there's nothing good to worry about here."

"You said that people are hillbillies, and you expect people not to care about you?"

"What if it does? Master Fang will definitely have a way! ”

You can't see too far here.

The "citizens" who can survive in the city will never go outside. Poor people living at the foot of concrete walls would go outside to pick up waste, but usually not very far.

In the bar around the corner, the few mercenaries who had seen the world heard some of the way from the explosion, but they just shook their heads and continued to drink the beer that had been diluted by the bitter taste of the water, and they were not even interested in talking.

Whatever happened there was not something they should care about. Even if there is a lot of work there, it is unrealistic to go to the northern suburbs of Qingquan City from the edge of the Third Ring Road in this ghost weather.

After all, they poor people don't have a chance to do airplane attendance......

Inner city central.

The top floor of the black building.

A man in a crisp formal suit stood in front of the floor-to-ceiling window, his face meticulous.

Of course, you can't see the northern suburbs of Qingquan City from here, and the Boulder City is surrounded by high-rise buildings, and no matter which direction you look at, you can only see a gray ruins.

But.

His eyes weren't just here.

Staring at the reflection on the floor-to-ceiling window, he whispered to himself.

"Even nuclear bombs were used."

There was a response in my ears.

"Yes, sir."

"The end? Who won. ”

"It looks like a business person."

The man nodded.

The combat effectiveness of the legion is very strong, but after all, it is pinned down by the people of the Great Rift Valley, and there are few people on the enterprise side, but the equipment and logistics are superior.

The probability of winning or losing was originally 4:6, but the moment the tactical nuclear bomb was dropped became 3:7, and it is reasonable that if the legion does not have stronger hole cards, it will lose.

Of course, this is from the perspective of the spectators, after all, there is still a big difference between war and playing poker, even if it is a 1/10 chance of winning.

But.

The casino is expected to be very lively today.

Those who bet on the legion to win are afraid that they will have to lose a lot.

"Do you want to intervene?" The voice next to him asked.

"If the commander of the legion is still alive, buy him, and when the legion's messenger comes, he can do a favor."

The voice went on to ask, "What if he dies?" ”

"Then say hello to the people in the company and remind them to use less radioactive weapons, it will be very troublesome to clean up the aftermath of that thing."

Whether it is a corps or an enterprise, it is better for them to have less mixing in contradictions. This is the province of the River Valley, and neither of them is too far away.

"It's better for us not to mix their contradictions, it's a trouble to offend anyone, and there is no benefit in pleasing anyone."

"But after all, it's happening on our borders."

"Send someone to mediate."

……

Brown Farmstead.

Looking at the fire rising in the distance, the farmer hiding in the house shivered, and his mouth couldn't stop muttering.

"Nuclear bomb...... Tactical Nuke......"

The young daughter looked at her father in confusion.

"Dad?"

"Don't worry, my dear," said the wife, putting her hand on his shoulder, and whispering softly, "it's far away from us. ”

"Get out!"

The man waved his hand angrily, but the back of his hand accidentally slapped into the little daughter's face, knocking the head flying.

Electric sparks jumped on Lone's neck.

The wife was slightly stunned, sighed softly, and walked silently towards her head.

Looking at the head that rolled to the ground, the man was slightly stunned and quickly calmed down, but he still couldn't help but babble in his mouth.

"Damn...... It's not going to be another war. ”

"We've spent enough money this year! Let me pause for a moment! ”

……

Bate Street.

A group of survivors looked at the sky not far away, and from here in the direction of Linghu Lake, they could only see a small beam of light.

Many people came out of their shacks, looking at the light in the distance and whispering.

Yu Hu glanced at his eldest brother and asked in a muffled voice.

"Brother, what's that?"

Yu Xiong frowned.

"I don't know. It doesn't look like it's from Linghu, it seems to be a little farther away...... Elm District? ”

It was a rather unfamiliar name to the survivors of Bate Street, and only occasionally heard from scavengers from the north, it was said to be an old town covered with forests, let alone usable garbage, not even a single brick.

Yu Xiong has only been there once when he is so big, and he has followed the footsteps of the deer. When he came back, in order to avoid the bloody hand, he spared a long way.

Yu Hu was stunned.

"Are you far away from Brother Chu?"

Yu Xiong nodded.

"It's quite far, about 20 kilometers."

"Oh, that's okay," Yu Hu breathed a sigh of relief and scratched the back of his head and said, "I'll go see Xiaoyu tomorrow, she's been away from home for a while." ”

Yu Xiong also missed his little sister a little and said.

"Let's go see her, I hope she's okay over there."

Yu Hu: "Brother, do you want to go together?" ”

"I'll forget it, the guards still have to train, and we still have patrol missions every day," Yu Xiong rubbed his brother's head, "You should go to the castle to learn Braille if you have time, anyway, you have time in winter." ”

The school that old Charlie opened?

Isn't that what children do?

Yu Hu remembered that there seemed to be children under the age of 16, and the adults in the family sent the children there to learn to write and count in order to save money for two meals.

"What am I learning that thing for......" Yu Hu said stunned.

Yu Xiong didn't know how to explain, after all, he was also illiterate, and he had recently gone to night school to write his name, so he could only say it vaguely.

"Anyway, this is something that Brother Chu got from, you just learn it, it will definitely be useful."

An outpost several kilometers away.

Xia Yan, who heard the voice, walked out of the weapon shop with a cane, looked at the flickering light in the north, and whispered in a daze.

“…… Tactical nuclear bombs? These people are fighting too hard, right? ”

Tactical nuclear bombs with a yield of less than 1 ton can be bought with chips in Boulder City, but few people will buy them.

On the one hand, it is expensive.

On the one hand, there is danger.

Many xenos are keen to make their home in radioactive areas, especially the most dangerous xenos such as the Claw Crab, the Night Demon, and the Death Scorpion, which can make them as excited and murderous as if they had been drugged.

If it's in an urban area, it usually becomes a breeding ground for nibbles and creepers. If it's in the suburbs, it's hard to say what strange species will be attracted.

At this time, Xia Yan suddenly noticed that there was a small figure at the door of the sanatorium, looking at the sky to the north like her.

The light of the torches at the door flickered.

Even from a distance, she could see the big black eyes, full of fear and worry.

Sighing, she walked over and put her hand on the fish's head.

"What's that?" Xiaoyu asked in a low voice.

Xia Yan rarely slowed down his tone and comforted softly.

"Not a good thing...... But it's okay, they're all strong, they'll be fine. Let's go back, it's getting late. ”

……

Because of a tactical nuclear bomb that suddenly detonated, the survivors of the northern suburbs of Qingquan City were terrified.

Although there are occasional stunned people who throw a nuclear bomb to blow up Xenomorphs, the power is much smaller than this, only a few hundred kilograms or a ton or so of the yield, and the sound is not so loud.

Some say that the legion is coming from the north.

But no one could explain why the Legion came to this place where birds don't.

Others say that there are super mutants, and local survivors detonate tactical nuclear bombs in order to survive.

But no one can think of any survivor colony in the northern suburbs that can have this ability, and actually deal with super mutants.

On the other hand, on the official website of "Wasteland OL", it is lively at the moment.

In fact, in-game events are no different from festivals for players.

forum.

Quit smoking: "Damn, I'm so cracked!" After walking 10 kilometers, I didn't even see the construction site, and a shell was taken away directly to me! (crying)"

Irena: "Two minutes of fighting, two hours of running, it's a real hammer." (Funny)"

Night Ten: "Oh, you're down again, old man?" ”

Irena: "Call me old man again!" (`Д′*)9 ”

Picking up garbage level 99: "It's cool!" I'm blowing it up hahahaha! I rushed into the trench with a sliding shovel and clawed to kill! It's just that these little monsters don't talk about martial arts, and they actually blew me up with a bundle of grenades! ”

WC really has mosquitoes: "Next time, the boiler will have to charge money, it's not expensive, I'll charge you a cost price, 100 silver coins." (Squint)"

Picking up trash level 99: "Damn! You're robbing money! ”

Night Ten: "There are so many familiar IDs, how many people have died in this wave?" ”

Irena: "There are 20 of them, anyway, there was a row in front of me when I came down...... Hey, the automatic rifle swept quite cool, rushed over and was a sudden meal, but unfortunately there were still two magazines left to shoot, and it was a loss. (Funny)"

Xiao Xiaoxiao laughed at the bookworm: "There must be more than twenty, this time it is estimated that it will break 100!" Wait for a friend who has been made up by a teammate to come down. ”

Makabazi: "Hahahahaha! Let you laugh so much, stupid, right? You've come down to stay with me this time, right? ”

Night Ten: "Don't brag, we died in the team battle, and after counting the loot in a while, we still have money to get, anyway, I think it's worth it." (Funny)"

Irena: "Indeed, that scene was spectacular enough, it was simply eye-popping, especially the wave behind it that rushed with the power armor, anyway, I think it's worth it." (Funny)"

Makabazi: "#&@! ”

The garbage king is on the field, and Brother Maca has completely broken the defense.

The forum was once again filled with a cheerful atmosphere, and the big guys speculated about the final benefits of this war.

It's not realistic to buy a power armor, and that thing has to be level 30 equipment in other games, so you basically don't have to expect too much in the early stage.

But it's always okay to buy a gun, right?

After waiting for a while, it was almost noon in the real world, and finally someone brought the battle report from the front line.

Elf King Fugui: "Brothers, I have been made up!" A total of 117 people were killed, more than half of them died, which was too tragic! But the other side is even worse than us, I heard that of the more than 2,000 corpses dragged out of the trenches, none of them are intact! But this time we probably made a fortune, we captured 5 light trucks, and I don't know how many supplies were placed in the fortifications! Now it's up to you to divide the spoils! ”

Night Ten: "Hehe, my requirements are not high, I just hope that I can buy that automatic rifle, but I can't remove the red dot sight and sell it to me separately, a gun with a mirror and a gun without a mirror are simply two weapons." ”

WC really has mosquitoes: "Yes! ”

Picking up trash level 99: "You're in favor of a chicken!" As far as you are the most obscene, the guns you buy are stuffed in the warehouse and hoarded, and you never bring them! ”

WC really has mosquitoes: "Gan! Didn't I come down to accompany you! ”

Picking up garbage level 99: "Don't act like Lao Tzu didn't see it, you exploded yourself with a soil grenade!" ”

Night Ten: "Poof." ”

Makabazi: "Hahahahaha! ”

WC really has mosquitoes: "Day you! ”

In any case, this battle is considered to be cool.

As for loot, you can't worry about it even if you want to, that's a matter of the game program.

Everyone said that they only hope that the planning father will be a person, and for the sake of this wave of people who don't know when they will have to wait to be launched, the death benefit can be given a little more.

It's not very demanding, 200 silver coins is quite reasonable.

It would be even better if it could get to 300 silver.

The topic behind the forum was gradually dominated by the players and patterns of the P Society, from whether it was better to move the Heavy five meters forward or five meters back, all the way to who is stronger in the game setting.

One is the power of the Far West, and the other is the power of the Far East, and the two usually do not intersect at all, but maybe they themselves did not expect that the people below actually fought in the central river valley province.

According to the information published on the official website. The Legion seems to have followed the route of crowd tactics, with other army doctrines. For example, the unit they encountered was the most common clone light infantry + trench fortifications, and the two guns were probably the embodiment of the fire support doctrine.

With the advantage of low logistical pressure and lock morale, these clone infantry are as if they have been brainwashed, or are not full-minded humans at all, preferring to give away their heads rather than surrender.

As for the enterprise, it is probably the "mobile warfare" army doctrine, all of which are high-tech troops armed to the teeth, with high mobility, strong armor, not only night combat equipment, but also air fire support...... Although it's just a light fixed-wing, it's better than nothing.

On the surface, the latter seems to have a greater advantage, and the equipment adds up to be more expensive, but the performance on the battlefield does not seem to be as invincible as the panel data suggests.

When the power armor cut through the first line of defense of the legion, it soon faced an embarrassing problem.

There's no one behind it.

Commander of the Spring: "...... The Pioneer can only be regarded as a scientific research expedition at best, and the soldiers are not professional soldiers, but more like adventurers, and it is good to be able to fight like this. If it is a confrontation between the two armies, this kind of problem does not exist at all, will there be no light infantry in the headquarters of the enterprise? I don't believe it. ”

Professor Yang of the Thunder and Lightning Law: "Hehe, if you really go to the frontal battlefield, they are facing hundreds or even tens of thousands of legions of the same size as today. If you can build an artillery, will it be difficult to build an engine? You don't need too black technology, you can make a World War II-level tank chassis and carry an electromagnetic cannon on your head, which is definitely cheaper than power armor. ”

Lin Dengwan, a million-strong hero: "Can't fight, across a whole continent, how long does the supply line have to be?" Besides, on the terrain of the wasteland, all the way is full of guerrilla aliens, and the non-combat wear and tear is directly full. ”

Canned seafood merchant: "Why don't they take the sea route?" The sea route is obviously easier to walk than the land route. ”

Duke of Venice: "Maybe there's a threat at sea. ”

Lying on the grave to scare the ghost: "Yes, yes...... In case of a Cthulhu-level sea monster coming directly, 10 Trailblazers are afraid that it will be enough. ”

Elf King Fugui: "Ahem, don't make any noise, whether it's strong or not, doesn't it depend on how the operator sets it?" ”

That's the point.

But no one paid any attention to him.

The game is still in closed beta, and the version numbers have only reached alpha, and each version is like a new game, and God knows what outrageous things will come out later.

No one can say anything about this.
