When Yin Fang said the word apology, the atmosphere in the office was a little delicate.

Chu Guang thought about it carefully for a while, but he didn't think of anything this guy could do to be sorry for himself.

After a moment of silence, Chu Guang looked at him and asked.

"You forgot your password?"

"That's not true," it seemed that he didn't expect Chu Guang to ask this, and Yin Fang, who was choked, coughed dryly and said, "My memory is still okay." ”

"You dismantled Xiaoqi?"

“……？”

It doesn't seem to be.

Chu Guang sighed: "So what the hell is going on?" ”

Yin Fang's face was unspeakable, and after hesitating for a while, he finally spoke, "It's about what I said on the road...... I have to apologize to you for handing over Dr. Principle's relics to the Academy, I didn't think it through. ”

That's it.

Chu Guang breathed a sigh of relief, but he couldn't help but be speechless for a while.

This guy had a worried expression on his face, which made him think that something very serious had happened, but he didn't expect it to be such a trivial matter.

"Oh, that's it...... Don't worry, if you don't say it, I'll forget about it. ”

Chu Guang is not such a small-bellied man, this innocuous little thing is not enough to make him hold a grudge.

Seeing that Chu Guang didn't take it to heart, although Yin Fang was also relieved, he still continued seriously.

"Anyway, it's really something I don't think about...... I thought about it later, if I had given the relics to the Academy, they would have come here to track down the whereabouts of the suitcase after they had seen the full footage. ”

"Congratulations, it's something that anyone can think of," Chu Guang looked at him and continued, "Moreover, even if you give this tape to the academy, there is no way to make up for it, at most give them another reason to kill you." ”

Yin Fang was stunned.

"Why ......"

"You said that there is a discrepancy between this and the history of the academy that you have learned, as one of the three founders, Doctor Principle has never been to the River Valley Province, let alone Qingquan City, the southernmost part of the River Valley Province, have you considered the reason for the Academy to conceal this clue?"

Yin Fang fell into thought.

It can be seen that although this child is a little naïve, he is not really stupid.

Taking a sip of the warm water in the cup, Chu Guang paused for a moment before continuing.

"It's reasonable to speculate that there are two scenarios. In the first case, Dr. Principle has an accident on the way to the Great Rift Valley or in the Great Rift Valley, but this is not realistic, because you said that the Doctor of Principles made a significant contribution to the establishment of the Academy. ”

Yin Fang nodded seriously.

"Yes...... The first of the three branches is named after him, including our laser rifle, and without him, the academy would not have been born. ”

Chu Guang: "Then there is another possibility, after your Doctor of Principles established the academy, he thought that the worst could happen, so he concealed the existence of the holographic tape." ”

Yin Fang retorted: "This doesn't make sense, since the worst he envisioned has happened, shouldn't he guide his descendants to find hope." ”

Chu Guang: "Maybe he can't count on you." ”

Yin Fang was stunned.

“…… What do you mean. ”

Chu Guang said with a faint smile.

"It's nothing, you said it yourself, the history of the academy is two hundred years, and a lot must have happened in it. Perhaps, it is no longer the academy it used to be. ”

When he heard this, Yin Fang almost instinctively came to a conclusion, which was unfounded speculation, but he couldn't think of a reasonable reason to refute it.

In fact, the influence of the academy has indeed weakened too much in these two centuries. From once spread across the wasteland, to the depths of the swamp, even the hunt for traitors requires bounty hunters to issue bounties.

Looking at the silent Yin Fang, Chu Guang comforted him and said.

"You don't have to be too frustrated, whether it's out of distrust or just not wanting to put all your eggs in the same basket, this hologram is always in our hands. If you're confused by Dr. Principle's decision, isn't it time to find out what really happened two centuries ago? ”

Hearing Chu Guang's last words, a hint of realization suddenly appeared in Yin Fang's confused eyes, as if he had figured out something.

"Thank you...... I seem to figure it out. ”

Chu Guang didn't expect this guy to be so easy to fool, he just comforted him casually, and he had a shocked expression.

However, I saved myself a lot of things.

"It's good to get it, then you're now-"

"As you said, there must be some kind of hidden reason why Dr. Principle left that hologram there and didn't let the academy recover it. Maybe that image was left for us," Yin Fang's eyes gradually became firm, and he looked at Chu Guang and said seriously, "I have decided, I must find out what happened two hundred years ago!" ”

Chu Guang was slightly stunned, looked at him and nodded.

"It's not bad, but it'...... It's unlikely I'll let you go, at least not for a short time. ”

Yin Fang shook his head and said, "I won't go, on the contrary, I will stay." This is not an exchange, but a request, I need your help. ”

Chu Guang: "...... What do you need me to help you with. ”

"I want to form a scientific research team!"

Yin Fang looked at him with a firm look in his eyes, and continued, "When I worked for the academy before, I have been engaged in data recovery work on the front line, I am very familiar with the entire workflow of research data recovery, and I can also do data analysis work on the second line!" If you're willing to lend me some manpower, I can rebuild a research data recovery system in your vault, following the Academy's model! ”

"I know what you mean, it's equivalent to an independent branch of the academy, right?"

Getting up from the computer chair with a happy face, Chu Guang walked in front of Yin Fang, patted him on the shoulder, and gave him an encouraging look.

"I'm glad you have such an ideal, just let it go! Someone has to correct mistakes, and Vault 404 will be your strong backing, we have enough manpower, we can go where the academy can't go, and we can do what they can't. ”

"I'll give you a good budget, we'll start from Qingquan City, dig up all the treasures here and then go to the next city, and you'll be the fourth founder of the Academy!"

I was surprised and moved by Chu Guang's enthusiasm.

Although his goal is not to dig up any treasure, but to find the truth, the two things do not seem to conflict.

Glancing at Chu Guang gratefully, Yin Fang responded to this trust and support with a firm look.

"Thank you, thank you for your support."

"You're welcome!"

Chu Guang had a bright smile on his face.

Yin Fang got the truth he wanted, and the "scientific ability" of Vault 404 was finally no longer zero, and players unlocked more quests - or richer gameplay.

This wave.

It's a win-win-win!

What could be more enjoyable?

Probably not.

……

The edge of the Fifth Ring Road in Qingquan City.

Near the entrance of the subway on Garden Street, two gunshots from the entrance of the subway broke the silence on the street. I saw a nimble player running out of the subway entrance, followed by dozens or even hundreds of swarming devourers.

They are not fast or agile, but they are durable enough to catch up with them for an entire day. Once they have grown in size, individuals with abnormal speed and physical abilities begin to appear in the group, making it difficult for even veterans who have been walking the wasteland for many years.

That's just a general point, though.

Instead of the poor clanging wastelanders, they're dealing with an organized, cooperative, logistical, and tireless group of players.

The Agility player began to pick up speed, dashing through the line drawn on the snow, and the player ambushed by the street lit the fuse.

Almost as soon as the nibbler rushed out of the entrance of the subway station about ten meters away, the powder keg that was clearly placed on the street exploded instantly.

Boom ——!

Smoke engulfed half of the street in an instant, and the flames of the explosion flew down the street with shrapnel, and the gnawers who rushed ahead poured a piece like wheat.

"Damn! You almost blew me up! Xiao Mengxin, who was tired of being a dog, gasped and glared at the mosquito fiercely.

In order to attract more monsters, he ran down for a long time, and almost couldn't come back.

"Aren't I afraid that you'll be caught up," the mosquito smiled, then opened his throat and shouted forward, "Brothers, it's time to go up and mend the knife, quick!" ”

"Kill!"

"Whoa!"

"them!"

The players who had been waiting for a long time copied the guy after hearing the order.

There were those with spears, some with axes, and some who learned from the master to make a hammer, and all kinds of cold weapons beckoned one after another.

The stronger the predators, the faster they run, and the ones who run in the front have already been blown into the sky, and the rest are miscellaneous soldiers, who don't need to waste bullets at all, and are directly executed in close combat.

Ye Shi, who was standing on the sidelines watching the battle, couldn't help but sigh with emotion.

"I'm afraid it's going to cost you a lot of money to fight."

Mosquito said with a smile.

"Actually, it doesn't cost much, and I made the bomb myself, which means that there is no cost."

Ye Shi didn't believe his nonsense, rolled his eyes and said, "What about gunpowder?" And hiring a group performer, these have to cost money, right? ”

Due to the gradual increase in the income of the mission, the gradual increase in difficulty, and the particularity of the gameplay, the players of Wasteland OL have formed a third set of spoils sharing rules in addition to the original equal sharing and G group rules.

i.e., employment.

The average median hourly earnings for a rookie player is 1 silver and 1 contribution, and for 2 credits, you can have a mercenary who is not afraid to die.

They don't need good equipment, and they can't afford to use them, and on the contrary, when dealing with weaker xenos such as the Eater or the Devil Moth, the gun is not as good as a crowbar.

After all, the former is 1 silver coin per bullet, while the latter is full of wasteland.

Ye Shi estimated that the price they offered to these newcomers should be about 3 copper coins or 4 copper coins per nibbler.

After all, if it's too low, it's better to cut down a tree.

"You don't need too good gunpowder to deal with these gnawers, ordinary black powder is enough. As for the group performance, uh, this one will take a little bit, but not much......" Mosquito's expression was a little subtle, and he quickly diverted the topic, "Anyway, don't you want to do it today?" ”

A smug smile appeared on Yashi's face.

"We had just reached the B3 floor, and we decided to relax and split up for the day."

Lao Bai and Hurricane took quit smoking and went to the elm area to practice, Fang Chang didn't know where to go, he didn't know what to do alone, and the perception department was not suitable for solo practice, so he wandered here to join in the fun.

"Rich man," the mosquito smacked his lips and said with envy, "if you hit the last layer, the total income will probably be tens of thousands." ”

The greenhouse site is currently recognized as the fattest map, especially after the textile problem of devil silk is solved, the income of the first floor will be thousands at best. Fang Chang's dog thing is too unkind, and he will no longer disclose his income from the B2 floor, which is true of his younger brother's behavior.

What's so secret about earnings?

Generously send it out for everyone to see!

If you don't look at it, how do you know if there is a shady scene, in case there is any ulterior py transaction pinch behind this?

"Hehe, it's okay," Ye Shi just wanted to pretend to be forced, but suddenly thought of Fang Chang and they had only told him to keep his mouth shut in the morning, so he coughed dryly, and changed his mouth when he came to his mouth, "Actually, it's not as exaggerated as you think." Equipment loss, supply consumption, and miscellaneous things are counted, and you won't make any money. And the further down this broken map goes, the more difficult it is to play, and the income has to be divided by four people. Hey, poor. ”

This time it was the mosquito's turn to roll its eyes.

"Can you tell the truth, how much money you make?"

"Not much."

"Gan!"

The battle not far away is over.

After a wave of monsters was cleared, players began to clean up the battlefield and count their records.

And the mole brother who fought side by side with the newcomers before, according to the results they counted, checked and distributed the remuneration they deserved.

The battlefield was lively, and everyone was laughing and laughing, and it was completely impossible to see that a cruel battle had just taken place.

"This task is too simple, I cut eleven of them alone."

"Cattle Pie! I'm eight, haha! Those whose heads were split open by an axe are mine! ”

"5 silver coins in hand! Woo woo, you can watch the little fish count the money! ”

"Brother Mole, remember to call me next time you have such a good job!"

"Definitely, definitely! Thank you all for joining us. ”

The mole who gave out the money had a smile on his face, but his heart was dripping blood.

He counted 136 gnawers on the ground, 20 of which were killed on the spot and 15 of which he killed. The newcomers solved 101, and at the price of 5 copper coins, he had to pay them 50.5 silver.

Gan!

It's almost time for an Iron Fist bazooka!

The mole really thinks that he and the mosquito brother are like a contractor who works for the manager, and they are also the kind of "0 advance payment" and "advance work". If he couldn't get this task done within two days, he would probably be dragged out of business.

"Planning Dad, please ask for peace, hurry up and open a new version!"

Looking at the newcomers who were paid and happy, the mole had a faint sadness on his face.

If you don't open a new version, when the level of these little leeks rises, the labor cost will be even more expensive!

At this moment, the agile little player who had pulled the monster before finally counted the corpses on the ground and ran to the side of the mosquito.

"I just pulled 136 nibbles up, you have to give me 13 silver and 6 bronze."

The mosquito had the same sadness on his face as the mole brother, but he still managed to squeeze a kind smile out of his face.

"No problem, can you erase it with zero? I just don't have any copper coins here. ”

"You want to give me 20?"

Ye Shi couldn't hold back his laughter, the mosquito frowned fiercely, took out a few coins from his pocket, and stuffed them into the cute hand.

The little Mengxin took the coin and counted it, looking surprised.

"13 silver and 6 bronze are just right...... Hey? Don't you don't have copper coins? ”

Mosquito: "Suddenly again." ”

Sprout: "......"

Ye Shi smiled and patted the new shoulder with a smile, and said with a smile: "Young man, not bad, what's your ID, next time we will team up together." ”

Who knew that Meng Xin didn't appreciate it, glanced at him and said, "Who are you calling a young man, Lao Tzu is thirty years old, how old are you." ”

Night Eleven looked embarrassed and took his hand back.

"Poofhahahaha!"

Seeing that this guy was deflated, the mosquito laughed out of a pig cry, patted Ye Shi's shoulder with a hippie smile, and squeezed his eyebrows at the new one.

"He's a little brother, I remember just going to college."

Ye Shichang blushed and argued, "Get out! Lao Tzu is a sophomore! ”

That Mengxin smacked his tongue: "That's not a little brother yet." ”

The mosquito smiled and said, "Dude, you're talking so interesting, what the hell are you?" ”

"Zhang Hai."

"Uh, no, I asked you the name of the game, what are you doing with your real name."

"It's called Zhang Hai, I don't change my name, I don't change my surname, I play games." Zhang Hai said with a glare.

Night Ten: "What if it's preemptively registered?" ”

Zhang Hai snorted and said, "It's okay, I still have Zhang Hai 001, Zhang Hai 111, and Zhang Hai 000." ”

Night Ten: "Poof." ”

The mosquito with a low laughing point had a pain in his stomach with laughter, coughed and said, "Brother, your style is ...... Why don't you play with a strength system or a physique system, why choose an agility. ”

Zhang Haimei danced and said: "You don't understand this, the world's martial arts, only fast and unbreakable." Fast, is strong, I am fast! ”

Mosquito: "Hahahaha grass." ”

"Wait," Night Ten frowned suddenly, looking around alarmistly, "I always feel like something is watching us. ”

"It's okay, it's okay, it's not a shame," Mosquito smiled and patted him on the shoulder, "It's a little bit of a day, why don't you go get something to eat?" ”

Zhang Hai's eyes lit up and said, "Go to my stall and eat, I'll pull ramen for you, authentic drops." ”

“……”

Delusion?

The feeling of being targeted faded, and Ye Shihu looked away suspiciously from the street in the distance.

And at the same time, on a high-rise building a few hundred meters away.

A mercenary holding a sniper rifle with a ghostly expression on his face, his back pressed against the wall.

He had just wanted to look with his scope to see what was going on on that street, but before he could see a few people on the other side, one of them suddenly looked around in alarm, and then looked over to him.

Is it a coincidence?

But that's a coincidence!

At this time, the captain's voice came from the communication channel.

"Carl, what do you see?"

"A lot of people."

"How much?"

"I don't see it clearly...... Give me a little more time. ”

Swallowing his saliva, the mercenary named Carl continued with a nervous expression.

"Those people...... It's hard to see if there are awakened people. ”
