The dirt road leading to the long farm.

Yin Fang, who sat in the back of the truck and wrapped himself in a fur coat like a zongzi, kept talking all the way.

"It can't be! The logo of the Academy? Showing up at a community college in an obscure town? Are you sure you're not kidding? ”

Chu Guang said with a faint smile.

"If it's a joke, I'll leave you alone."

“……”

Yin Fang looked at him speechlessly, not wanting to speak.

But Chu Guang really wanted to chat with him.

There's no way, the news in Qingquan City is too closed, and he almost relies on hearsay and his own brain to make up for what is happening outside.

Regarding why the things of the academy appeared in an ordinary academy, Chu Guang was also very curious.

According to Yin Fang, from here to the Wandering Swamp, there were at least a thousand kilometers, which was far beyond the scope of influence of the Academy.

Although Cheongquan City is one of the important cities in the southern metropolitan agglomeration of the River Valley Province, it is a prosperous era.

"Actually, I've always been curious about what kind of organization the academy is."

Yin Fang shook his head and said, "If you want to fully explain this issue, I'm afraid you won't be able to finish it in one day and one night." ”

"Then you pick the key points and pick up the ones I'm interested in."

Speechless by this wayward question, Yin Fang opened his mouth, and only came back to his senses in embarrassment until he poured a breath of northwest wind.

Coughing several times, he said.

"What do you say, Academy...... It's not as mysterious as you outsiders think, it's like a huge library. In fact, until the end of the Boom Era, it was a loose academic organization. ”

Chu Guang looked at him with interest and said, "But your performance is not relaxed at all, nor is it simple, and it is not like an academic organization. ”

"That's for sure, I said it was the end of the Age of Prosperity, and it's now the 211th year of the Wasteland Age."

Two hundred years.

In the history of human civilization, many feudal dynasties have not been able to exist for so long, let alone just an academic institution.

Yin Fang squinted his eyes and looked at the southwest and continued.

"I've only heard a little bit that in the early years of the Wasteland Age, the Academy took on some of the post-war reconstruction, which was mostly focused on the technical field. This includes taking over some experimental facilities, scientific research equipment, and restoring damaged materials and lost technology. ”

Chu Guang: "Sounds like a very grand project. ”

Yin Fang sighed faintly and said, "That's the case, we haven't finished this job until now." The world is changing too fast, and it is said that a long time ago, the influence of the academy spread throughout the continent of Middle-earth, and the academy's expedition team could go wherever they wanted. But the good times didn't last long, and there was no room for the academy outside the swamp, and everyone looked at us like fat sheep. ”

Hearing the word fat sheep, Chu Guang unconsciously glanced at this guy's right hand.

Be reasonable.

An arm is worth at least 10,000CR, and it's a friendly price. Chu Guang felt that he really couldn't blame others, even if it was a good person like him, he would be tempted.

"Speaking of which, I wonder what kind of place the swamp is."

Yin Fang replied briefly, "A vast swamp, the size of a province, where the weather is getting out of control every day, and the xenomorphs are going crazy every day...... Anyway, you won't like that place. ”

"I didn't say I was going, I was just curious," Chu Guang looked ahead, patted the roof of the car, and motioned for the driver to find a place to park nearby, "It's just ahead, we're here." ”

After getting out of the car, Chu Guang pulled out the hammer behind him.

The four little players who went with them picked up the guy very decisively, walked in front, and took on the role of guards.

With a lineup of 2 forces and 2 senses, the two power players walk in front to open the way, and the two perception players follow behind to "light the lamp". Each of the four people has an LD-47 assault rifle, which has sufficient firepower and a very safe sense of security.

Since the firepower is sufficient, Chu Guang doesn't need to replenish the firepower here, just hold the hammer and open the shield in time to protect himself and the NPCs next to him.

The city is quite deserted.

Due to the blizzard, there were almost no xenomorphs roaming the streets, and after eliminating a few nibbles hiding in the shadows, the group made it to the target area on the map without incident.

It was a community college, and it was quite modest on the outside, and even the area was only slightly larger than the nearby high school.

Standing in front of the experimental building, Yin Fang glanced up and shook his head.

"I don't think the academy would be interested in such an inconsequential goal, you've probably made a trip in vain."

Hearing this, Chu Guang smiled disappreciatively.

"It's already at the door, whether it's a trip for nothing, just go in and see."

Throwing down this sentence, Chu Guang walked in with the player.

Seeing that he was about to fall behind, Yin Fang could only stubbornly follow and stepped into this gloomy laboratory building.

Broken tiles and rubble were everywhere, and there were newly dropped bullet casings on the ground, and it looked like a fierce battle had broken out here more than an hour ago.

Looking at the creeper on the ground with a split head, Yin Fang smashed his tongue and involuntarily followed a little.

In the academy's scientific research team, such rude things as combat are usually done by E-class, F-class and even androids and drones, and D-class personnel need independent analysis ability and excellent brains.

Even if you need to master some survival skills, it is mainly about survival itself.

For example, basic first aid knowledge.

Yin Fang was quite skeptical of the combat effectiveness of these people, especially when he saw that this manager was still holding a hammer in his hand, this unreliable feeling became even stronger.

"Can you give me a gun? I can protect myself. ”

"You're a VIP, just stay behind me honestly."

“VIP？”

"Tsk, how can I explain it to you?"

It was time for small talk, and the group had arrived.

Dressed in heavy armor, the commander stood in front of him and respectfully placed his right fist on his chest and gave a military salute.

"Dear Administrator, when you came, we had successfully cleared the entire hall of the first floor of the xenomorphs for you."

"Well done." Chu Guang nodded approvingly, looked at him and said, "Lead the way ahead." ”

"Yes!"

With the affirmative look of the manager, Izumi happily walked ahead and led the way. Chu Guang ordered two players to stay at the entrance, while the other two players followed him and Yin Fang to explore the basement.

The passage here is narrow.

However, after entering, there was a sudden opening in front of me.

Looking at the ten dormant cabins placed in the basement, Yin Fang suddenly seemed to be petrified, and was stunned on the spot.

Coming back to his senses, he rushed up without saying a word, leaned into the nearest sleeping pod, and stared at it with his eyes fixed.

"There can't be a mistake...... The style of this training cabin is exactly the same! Yin Fang's mouth whispered, his hands groping on the dusty hatch, eager to pounce on it.

The little players around looked at each other, exchanged confused glances, and asked in a low voice.

"What is this doctor doing?"

"I don't know...... Maybe a special hobby? ”

"Got it, the hobby of the new NPC is the Sleep Pod!"

"Big guy bull batch! I'll go to the forum and post later, hehe, I don't know if I can mix it up. ”

Chu Guang: "......"

This kind of boring post ghost will be refined.

Coughing lightly, Chu Guang looked at Yin Fang, who was stunned, and asked.

"What exactly is the same?"

"It's exactly the same model as the Academy's hibernation pod...... Hell, why did this type of hibernation pod appear in the River Valley Province? ”

With an expression of disbelief on his face, Yin Fang finally left from the side of the sleeping cabin, looked at Chu Guang and said seriously.

"Where's the box? The one you said has the college logo on it. ”

Chu Guang took the box from the players who were following him, that is, the task props in the eyes of the players, and handed it to Yin Fang's hand.

"Here...... What the hell is this thing? ”

"The black box where data is saved!" Yin Fang gently tapped the surface of the box with his knuckles, and said with a happy face, "This layer of material on the outside can effectively resist neutron rays and the electromagnetic pulse generated by a nuclear explosion. In addition to this, an inert gas should have been injected into it to protect the graphene circuit board...... I'm guessing it's probably a hologram or audio recording or something, just open it and see. ”

As he spoke, Yin Fang didn't wait for Chu Guang to signal, and a knife stretched out from under his right hand, and lightly scratched the surface of the box.

A magical scene happened.

The moment the surface material was cut open, the layer of black paint wrapped around the box dissipated like grit that had disappeared with the wind, revealing the silver shell underneath

Yin Fang carefully groped for the edge of the box, and soon found an inconspicuous gap and opened the box.

The commander of the spring water couldn't help but glance at the battlefield atmosphere group, and whispered: "Why haven't I moved for a long time?" ”

"Isn't this a matter of course," the Battlefield Atmosphere Team had not yet spoken, and I interjected in the darkest of voices, "How can I use mission props for myself?" ”

The two were stunned.

It makes sense, it's completely irrefutable.

In this moment's distraction, the azure light has converged and formed, and a holographic bust appears out of thin air in the room.

Chu Guang and the players didn't react, but Yin Fang, who was standing in the room, looked at it with straight eyes, and he couldn't wait for his eyeballs to fall out of his sockets.

"Principle?!"

"Principle?" Looking at Yin Fang, who was babbling there in his mouth, Chu Guang asked suspiciously, "What principle?" ”

"Principles, Methods, Conclusions...... The statues of the three doctors of the post-war re-establishment of the academy stand at the entrance of the academy. ”

Yin Fang swallowed, his eyes full of disbelief, and continued, "The person in front of you is the Doctor of Principles, and the laser rifle of the academy is named after him, I am sure that I will not be mistaken, it is him, and it is what he looked like when he was young. But why are his relics here? This is not the case in the history of the academy at all...... I don't understand. ”

Chu Guang: "......"

Coincidentally.

Chu Guang wanted to say that I didn't understand it either.

But just as he was about to say this, the hologram standing in mid-air spoke as if it were self-described.

"We're out of the cabin and feeling good."

"It's the second year of the Wasteland Era, and it's Battalion Commander Zhao Weisheng of the 111th Orbital Airborne Division who is in charge of picking us up, and as planned, we have successfully joined the army, albeit a little late...... But fortunately, they did not give up and loyally waited for us here for two years. ”

"According to the plan, the next step will be to go to the Great Rift Valley in the north, escorted by the army, which is the energy storage center in the central region, and the stored metallic hydrogen is enough for us to rebuild the central region twice. Currently, the Great Rift Valley is already under the control of the 111th Orbital Airborne Division. ”

"According to the information provided by Battalion Commander Zhao, the post-war reconstruction committee has already started its work, and all we have to do now is to go there and report, meet up with other people, perform their duties, and start rebuilding."

"The only trouble now is that the Fourth Company, which was responsible for escorting us, has unplanned to contain more than a thousand residents who have not been able to evacuate in time, so much so that we may be running out of supplies. On the other hand, the poor road conditions and weather have left us on our own legs. ”

"Not only that, Battalion Commander Zhao wants to take those survivors with him. Honestly, they're a burden and only add variables to the plan. I can't comment on whether his good deed was right or not, because if I think about it, I would probably make the same decision. ”

"Either way, it's certain to get from here, and there's no time left for us to do with a mountain of things we need to do. However, what makes me uneasy is that I always feel that things are not going so well...... Is the war really over? To be honest, I'm lost. ”

"My esteemed mentor taught me that you have to be prepared for both situations and that things don't always go as smoothly as we expected."

The man in the hologram looked at the sky for a moment, then looked straight ahead, squeezing out an optimistic smile from his expressionless face.

"Hey, listen, you're the one who picked up this video."

"If you are standing in a prosperous utopia at the moment, and the fragrance of peace fills the air, please send it to the museum for me. It's a valuable piece of information, and if you can find my name in the pavilion, I'm sure the museum will give you a lot of money, that's what I said. If they pay the bills, you will smash the box in front of them, haha. ”

The man smiled heartily, and a hint of loneliness suddenly appeared on his face.

"But if Scenario B happens and we are unfortunate enough to live in a miserable world, then it proves ...... We may well have failed. ”

"I'm sorry, both for my mentors and for those who trusted me to give me this opportunity to go to the future. There's only one thing left for me to do for you. ”

"Please take this video with you and go to the northern suburbs of Qingquan City to find Vault 117, which should be just below the Huayuan Street subway station. I don't know exactly where it is, but you'll probably have to look it up. ”

"The manager there is an acquaintance of mine, and I once entrusted him with a suitcase containing some useful things for me. If it's case B, I probably won't have a chance to pick it up, you go and take it away, my old friend will give it to you when he sees this video. ”

"Remember the password to the box, X1179."

"If you lose three times in a row, you're nothing."
