Chapter 517: Coming Home

Above the clouds, a chic-shaped plane took off from the airport on the edge of the Ideal City and flew in the direction of the river valley province.

It has two pairs of wings, a total of four engines, two front and two rear, symmetrically distributed in the four corners of the fuselage, spraying a pale blue plasma plume towards the rear.

This transport aircraft can be regarded as a civilian modification of the "Killer Whale" transport aircraft, with a lengthened fuselage, increased cargo compartment capacity, and a pair of plasma engines added.

Because it is civilian, the aggressive name "killer whale" has also become a relatively milder "blue whale".

Visually, the aircraft looks like an advanced version of the four-engine tiltrotor, replacing the traditional propellers with a lighter, more stable and less airflow-affected plasma engine.

Like the Orca Transport Aircraft, it is able to switch between horizontal and vertical flight modes, and can even perform "sideways translation" maneuvers that Orca Transport Aircraft cannot do.

Just like a quadcopter drone.

It's just that most of the passengers on the plane will scold their mothers after experiencing it.

The aircraft was designed by a subsidiary of Silver Wing Group, and more than 100 aircraft were produced by the company, and only one has been completed so far, and it has been put into flights from Yunjian Province to Hegu Province.

To a certain extent, the deeds of the Pioneer have influenced the current mainstream of thought in the Ideal City, and the "Influence Expansion" proposal proposed by Wu Changnian at the council meeting was successfully passed.

In the future, the company will not only operate the one-third of an acre of land in Yunjian Province, but also project its vision beyond Yunjian Province and explore the future path together with survivor settlements in various places.

They will not go back to the days of the post-war reconstruction committees, providing unconditionally for the survivors' settlements like the predecessors of the "Ministry of Production", but they will not treat them as non-existent air as they did in the past before this moment.

The birth of the Alliance has proven that the Wastelanders are not all incurable troubles.

And this flight to the province of the river valley is one of the products of Wu Changnian's proposal.

His speech at the press conference that day inspired many people, and it was because of this that the tickets for the first flight were sold out almost as soon as they were hung out.

If it weren't for Li Shuyue's help to buy reserved tickets for business travel through Ruyue Group, the four of the "Cow and Horse Squad" would probably have to stay in Ideal City for a while longer...

"Damn! Bad luck today! ”

Watching Fang Chang show the cards on the table. Night Eleven leaned back in his chair with a gloomy face.

There are a total of 240 seats in the cabin, and in addition to the front and rear segments, there is also an entertainment room with a bar where the android waiters can serve drinks.

Passengers are allowed to get out of their seats and move around as they like before landing, but in the event of an emergency, they will need to follow the captain's instructions to return to their seats or take a seat in the nearest car seat.

In order to pass the boring commuting time, the four of them sat at the table in the entertainment room and played blackjack at the suggestion of Fang Chang.

Looking at Ye Shi, who had an uncomfortable face, Fang Chang smiled faintly.

"You

The cards are already written on the face, and it is not too easy for you to win. ”

"But One"

"You want to say that your expression is actually fake, right?"

Seeing through what he wanted to say, Fang Chang continued with a smile on his face, "But have you ever considered that the deliberate disguise itself has already revealed your intentions. ”

"Hey, don't play, don't play······ That's too much! Ye Shi sighed and pushed away the chair, "Let's play landlord fight." ”

He thought that the perception attribute could help him kill all sides at the poker table, but as a result, he bullied Lao Bai, who didn't know much about the 21-point rule, and never won against the top leader.

Looking at Ye Shi, who had given up, Fang Chang said with a smile.

"If you're not good at disguising your emotions, you can learn from Tempest...

··· That kind of facial paralysis is more difficult to deal with, especially since he is very strong in mathematics. ”

The wind coughed softly.

"Facial paralysis isn't it····· It's just that this kind of thing doesn't matter if you win or lose, and there are rules to follow, and I'm not surprised to get bad cards and good cards. ”

Night Ten suddenly raised his head.

"I've always been curious." Lao Bai, who had lost all his points early, said with a smile.

"Curious about what?"

Night Ten glanced at the wind.

"Why do you think a physics guy like Tempest Guy also plays games?"

Fang Chang said with a smile.

"What's so strange about this, who doesn't have a hobby anymore." The wind coughed softly.

“.···· It's not a big guy, I'm just more interested in what I'm interested in. ”

Ye Shi couldn't help but complain when he heard this.

"Listening to your words is better than a seat."

Fang Chang looked at the wind with interest.

"Speaking of which, what exactly is your research topic?"

He's also learned a little bit about artificial intelligence recently, albeit only in the overview.

He didn't really understand what the physics professors at the university were working on, but if Tempest's field of study happened to be related to algorithms, he could talk about his in-game discoveries.

Tempest thought for a moment, and suddenly changed the topic.

"Anyway, didn't we say that we wouldn't talk about reality in the game?" Hearing this, Ye Shi couldn't help but spray.

"Damn! We've known each other for many years and still come to this set! Go to Jinling Day another day for you. ”

Tempest said.

"Okay, you're here to take you around." Fang Chang squinted his eyes.

“···· Don't listen to this kid's mouth, he shouted that he wanted to come to Shanghai to play with me the year before last, and he has changed from a high school student to a college student and has not seen anyone else. ”

After being a pigeon for so long, Ye Shi also felt a little embarrassed, scratched the back of his head and explained.

"Hey····· I don't want to wait for a chance to get together together, when the time comes, I will take Lao Bai and Storm together, it will be more fun to have more people, what's the point of me going alone. ”

Fang Chang rolled his eyes.

"Come on, we'll see you in the game." Speaking of which...

Actually, there is another person.

I also said that I was going to Shanghai to play with him.

Fang Chang couldn't help but think of a certain guy who was playing with chicken thief dishes.

He didn't even understand how the guy who was doing sales was going to make games.

I've never seen him think about this before·····

While the four of them were chatting, at the long table not far from the bar in the recreation room, a well-dressed man was standing in front of a group of young people who looked like travelers in an oily voice.

“····· You say Qingquan City? What a coincidence, I grew up in Qingquan Town, and no one knows it better than me. ”

"Really?" A young man in his early twenties looked at the man in surprise and continued quickly, "Are you a resident of the Alliance?" ”

"Alliance? Ahh You said that," the man was stunned and said impatiently, "There was no alliance when I left my home to travel, and there was only a real survivor settlement in the entire Qingquan City, and the other small villages did not deserve to be called settlements at all. ”

His name is Kixiu, the second son of the president of the Bank of Boulder City, and in his early years, he was entrusted by his father to a local merchant who knew him well, and sent him to the ideal city to see the world. It's been almost five years in the blink of an eye.

When he was in Boulder City, he was a well-known gentleman in the city, and even if he was a nobleman in the inner city, he would give him a little bit of thin face for the sake of his father's ability to help make money and his mother's family status.

Not to mention those residents of the outer city, no matter what kind of bastard he does, no one will trouble him, and he has never done anything less to bully men and women.

However, when he arrived in Ideal City, it was a completely different matter, no one took his father's identity as the president of the Bank of Boulder City in his eyes at all, and the chips in his pocket could not even be directly exchanged for Cr.

Thanks to his father sending him some money from time to time, otherwise he would be a nobleman and would have to work in a fast food restaurant.

Ideal City is indeed prosperous, and there are many times more people than Boulder City, but living in a room of dozens of square meters, and only being able to line up with a group of sand sculptures on the end cloud all day long is not the life he wants.

The mentally retarded.

If anyone dares to be so disrespectful to him in Boulder City, he will definitely find someone and shoot him down.

If it weren't for the long distance, his father didn't give him a chance, and he couldn't save up for the journey, he would have wanted to go home a long time ago!

Of course, the reason he was homesick wasn't exactly because he missed the freedom there, but more because he wanted to do something to prove that he wasn't what the fools on the endpoint cloud said he was - he was a piece of waste who was good for nothing but having a good dad.

Especially recently, the recent resolution of the corporate council has given him hope, and the ideal city has even opened flights to the province of River Valley!

He intends to use this shareholder wind to revitalize his hometown!

Feeling that the atmosphere was almost in place, Kishu cleared his throat vigorously and continued in an uplifting tone.

“····· Friends, we are ushering in an era of opportunity! You listened to Vice Minister Wu in the new

Heard the speech at the press conference? From now on, enterprises will be more radical and active to expand their business scope, and as the first stop of the company's overseas business, Qingquan City, a city with a population of more than 500,000 people, is undoubtedly the most potential market! "Yet one

To his surprise, the young men did not react after hearing his words.

At least not the excitement and longing he expected. "Wu ····· That old man, you say? ”

"It's okay if people aren't old."

"Uh······ Yes, but I didn't pay attention to what he said. "Where is Boulder City?"

"Aren't we going to Dawning City?" "I guess I bought the wrong ticket."

A group of people talked and laughed at each other, not taking his words to heart at all. Apparently they are only here for tourism and are not very interested in business matters.

Kisho's brow twitched, but he didn't give up, trying to make a last-ditch effort.

"That's right, we'll get off the plane in Dawning City, but when it comes to River Valley Province, we have to mention Boulder City, which may be the only civilized pure land in the southern part of the entire River Valley Province, and we can hire a team of mercenaries to escort us to a-"

A slightly taller young man coughed, interrupting his growing voice.

"The Enterprise Exit Office has reminded us that we must be cautious when leaving the Yunjian Province, the commandos cannot receive our distress signal, and if it is not necessary, it is best not to leave the area actually controlled by the Alliance."

A young woman with glasses nodded and said with a worried expression.

"Indeed, I have heard····· Riverdale is the birthplace of the Claws of Death, and those with horns on their heads can even shred power armor with a single claw. ”

"That's probably an exaggeration····· But will we run into the wild Claws of Death? ”

"I don't know, but Vault 79 can visit the Claws of Death! I heard that there is also the first head that was originally born in the legend! ”

"The Claws of Death were artificially created!?" "Did you find out?"

"Go ahead, I'm going to stay in Dawn City for a few days······ I heard that there was a celebration in three days. ”

"Can I meet the legendary administrator?"

"Haha, don't be a nymphomaniac, people don't have time to see you as a tourist.

The men and women were talking and laughing, and the topic unconsciously ran back to the league.

Looking at these guys who don't eat oil and salt, Kixiu clenched his fists, and black lines couldn't help but appear on his forehead.

··· This bunch of guys!

Why didn't you listen to him at all!

Taking a deep breath, Kishu suppressed the anger in his heart and told himself that he must be calm and not rash.

Most of the people who were able to buy tickets for their first flight were wealthy people.

Either you have money, you have money at home, or you just go on a business trip.

If he could get Cr from these guys and invest in the local industry in Boulder City, his plan would be much smoother.

He's already figured it out.

The problem with Boulder City is that the development of the company has stagnated due to the solidification of the class, and the lazy survivors have become poorer in frustration when they find that they cannot be nobles no matter how much they work, and that they are at risk of being skinned by the marauders.

The solution to the problem is simple.

As long as another outer city is built outside the outer city, so that the original "outer city" becomes a "middle city", won't the problem be solved?

Not only that, he also plans to learn from the advanced financial experience of Ideal City.

However, this card has to be used as the hole card for the finale, and it cannot be played at the beginning.

I'm afraid there will be a lot of resistance to advancing in the inner city, and he will be spanked by his father in the outer city, but if it's outside the giant wall, it's no problem.

A digital currency based on credit!

Those turtles who had never seen the world would definitely be shocked by his genius idea!

However, to Kissho's dismay, the rich kids from the Ideal City weren't interested in what he was saying, and the businessmen who were napping with neural devices didn't bother to talk to him.

His eyes searched the lounge for a while, and he soon noticed the four guys sitting in the corner playing cards, and his eyes suddenly lit up, and he walked over there.

At the same time, Ye Shi, who had just drawn a good deck of cards, was thinking about how to manage the expression on his face, and at this moment, an unfamiliar voice suddenly came from the side.

“.···· Hello, it's a pleasure to be on the same flight with you, my name is Kisho, the second son of the president of the Bank of Boulder. In order to keep his accosting from looking stiff, he looked at the piece of paper on the table and asked curiously, "What are you guys playing?" Can you bring me one? ”

"Poker····· You wait for the next round. ”

I didn't bother to bother with this passer-by NPC who came from nowhere, and Ye Shi stared at Fang Chang who was about to look at the cards, intending to read the flaws on his face, and then use this good card in his hand to find the field fiercely.

However, to his disappointment, Fang Chang did not look at the cards, but instead set his eyes on the man who had accosted them.

The second son of the president of the Bank of Boulder? That is... Alyssa's brother?

Fang Chang's expression was slightly surprised.

It's too much of a coincidence, isn't it...

But then again, since he hadn't been to Boulder City for so long, he had almost forgotten about the NPC who had entrusted him to find the cat.

"My name is Fang Chang······ They are my friends. Out of politeness, Fang Chang introduced himself, and then introduced Ye Shi and other partners one by one.

Ji Xiu stared at Fang Chang for a while, chewing on the name repeatedly, always feeling that he had heard it somewhere, but he couldn't remember it for a while.

But it doesn't matter!

The people who can take this flight are all powerful masters, and maybe they may not be able to see it in any advertisement.

With a sunny smile on his face, Kishu stared at the young man in front of him with blazing eyes.

"The first time I saw you, I knew that you weren't an ordinary person." Fang Chang said with a smile.

"So you're going to repeat to me what you just said to those people."

Because of the Yeten card skills, he can even listen to those NPCs while playing cards with this kid. He didn't expect that this liar who sneaked into the flight would target him, and he didn't expect that he would still have the identity of the second son of the president of the Bank of Boulder City.

If he's not lying, that's a bad identity.

“···· Since you've heard it, then I won't repeat it," Kisho lowered his excited voice, "How about it?" Are you interested in revitalizing Boulder with me? The market there is not only 500,000 people, but its influence is enough to cover the entire southern part of the river valley province, and even most of the Geumcheon province! ”

Hearing this, a smile appeared on Fang Chang's face.

was about to tease this guy euphemistically, but his heart suddenly moved, and an interested expression appeared on his face.

"That's right······ Tell me how you plan to revitalize that Boulder City?"

Seeing Fang Chang's expression of interest, Ji Xiu's face showed unconcealed joy.

"It's easy! No, it's not that simple, it's just that no one has found 66

"Shh Fang Chang interrupted him with a silent gesture, then took out a business card and handed it to him.

"Don't talk about something so important on the plane······ When you get off the plane, you come to this address to find me. ”

Ji Xiu, who took the business card, was stunned, didn't look at the address, and stared at Fang Chang with straight eyes.

"You... Ever been to Qingquan City? ”

"What are you talking about, I've not only been here, it's like my second home," looking at this confused young man, Fang Chang said with a smile, "Have you heard of the Changyue Group?" If you haven't heard of it, what about willing to fight chicken? ”

"That's your company?!" Ji Xiu was shocked for a moment, but quickly came back to his senses, "Wait, but I heard that it's a subsidiary of the Ruyue Group."

Of course he knows about the company!

In the last letter to my father, he specifically mentioned it! Fang Chang coughed.

"There's a big problem with your understanding of equity······ But aside from these, aren't you curious about how the head of the Changyue Group came about? ”

Changyue Group is a joint venture between Niuma Group and Ruyue Group, but it is only under the name of Ruyue Group because of qualification issues.

As for why he used his own name, Fang Chang also wondered, but it didn't matter if the brothers didn't have an opinion.

After all, it really doesn't sound good to use cows and horses.

Kishu stared at him in disbelief.

"Is it..."

Looking at Ji Xiu, who had obviously misunderstood something, Fang Chang smiled mysteriously and didn't give any explanation, just pointed to the business card in his hand.

"There are some things that are inconvenient to talk about in a crowded place... Got off the plane and chatted."

Kishu hurriedly stopped talking and nodded excitedly. "That's right! Reasonable! ”

Completely forgetting about the things at the poker table, Fang Chang quickly chatted with this NPC about something else, and the more he talked, the more engaged he became, and the more he chatted, the more he forgot himself.

When Ji Xiu heard that the person in front of him had the same experience as himself, he had the experience of studying at Yunjian University, and immediately grabbed his hands excitedly, looking like he hated to see each other.

Ye Shi glanced at Lao Bai sitting next to him.

“.···· I finally knew what Fang Chang meant by what he said. Lao Bai was stunned.

"Which word?"

It's the phrase "write the cards in your hand on your face." Glancing at the two cards on the table, Yashi sighed and received the cards on the table, "These guys with a lot of eyes are too dirty, I really won't play this time... Let's play landlord fighting. ”

Tempest nodded approvingly. "Agreed."

The flight from the East Coast to Dawn City was still floating in the sky, and the Iron Heart, which had returned from the Great Desert, had returned to the Alliance's capital with the glory of victory and the banner.

Chu Guang rested on the airship for one night, and at dawn the next day, he returned to the surface in a pod with his little players.

Three days later, a grand celebration will be held in the city of Dawn to celebrate the triumph of the expeditionary force.

Although it is not yet the official start of the festival, the streets are already filled with a festive atmosphere in the past two days.

In order not to affect the normal life and work of the residents, and in order not to overdraw the joy of the celebration in advance, Chu Guang did not make a big splash when he came down from the sky, and even specially told Luca and the others not to come to pick him up.

The Iron Heart, flying the Union flag, also quietly stopped on the edge of the Elm District, and did not continue in the direction of the settlement.

"Hahahaha, Ye is finally home!" When his feet finally stepped on the ground, the mosquito raised his head to the sky and let out a long howl, happily walking in the direction of the industrial area.

The war is over!

The era of goblin technology has finally arrived!

He really prefers to make more interesting inventions than those equipment that is quick and easy to operate.

A few young people stood on the edge of the wheat field, looking at the prosperous settlement in the distance, with surprised expressions on their faces.

"Is this Dawning City?" Astound! ”

"It's awesome..."

The houses are scattered and scattered, there is no sense of waste at all, the red brick walls are painted with white paint, and there are many tinkling construction sites on the outskirts of the city.

The closest to them at the moment was the train station in Dawning City.

The open space in front of the station has been turned into a cargo distribution center, and the sound of shouting can be heard from afar. Huge wooden boxes filled almost the entire freight platform, and the carriages waiting for dispatch formed a long line in front of the platform······

This in itself is nothing surprising.

In reality, any city is more prosperous than here.

But what is staggering is that just a year ago it was an overgrown wilderness, with no houses at all, let alone farmland as far as the eye can see.

Every brick and tile, grass and tree here has been built by players who have entered the game since LP0.1 and NPCs.

The shock that came to my face was much stronger than what I had seen in the photo...

Glancing at the uninformed guys, I'm the most

Black said with a joke.

"You look like you've just arrived." The outlaw fanatic scratched the back of his head.

"Well, I did come back here for the first time······ My respawn point was in Vault 79, and I was sent to the front line as soon as I was born. ”

He still remembered hearing clearly, not long after he arrived at the front line, he was fooled by those old players into being cannon fodder on the Legion's position.

Later, he learned by chance from the forum that the pangolin turned out to be his own.

The one next to him woke up and was sleepy, and nodded shockingly. "Me too······ First time home. ”

My darkest eyes lit up, hooked the shoulders of the two of them, and said with a hippie smile.

"Bet0.4 dude, right? Hahaha! Let's go, brother will take you to see for a long time. ”

When the outlaw fanatics heard this, they immediately became alert.

"What are you going to do····· I don't dare to do anything illegal. "When I woke up, I was sleepy, and I looked at this guy with the same alertness.

“+1! Before the alliance, the master was in line! Don't mess with me! ”

I pursed my lips the blackest.

"Cut, who didn't come in line····· Don't worry, I'm just asking you to eat a bowl of ramen, what are you thinking about early in the morning? ”

Alas. It turned out to be eating noodles.

The two of them suddenly showed a dull expression. White is looking forward to it!

Looking at the little players who were hooking their shoulders and shouting noisily, Chu Guang's face showed an old fatherly smile.

Although many Bet0.4 players have fought for the alliance for many days and die I don't know how many times, they don't actually know what the alliance is, just the setting of the game.

I believe that at this moment they will have a deeper understanding - it is a home made up of a group of people, and people are fighting for it not just for money and experience.

Of course, even if his young players have a new understanding of the Alliance's cause, he still prefers that they can play in a joyful way, without having to carry a series of overly heavy burdens such as "civilization revival" and "uniting the people who survive".

That's his job.

In addition to being the manager of the Alliance, he is also the game curator of Wasteland Online.

In contrast, he still prefers that his players can play the game in a relaxed mood.

After all, as he said, this is a joy-oriented casual game. Retracting his gaze from the players, Chu Guang said with a smile.

"Let's go, we should go too."

Xiao Qi, who was sitting on Chu Guang's shoulders and holding his cheeks with his hands, had been watching the expression on his face.

Seeing the imperceptible loneliness, Xiao Qi thought that Chu Guang was feeling lonely because no one came to pick him up, so he cheered in an energetic tone.

"It's okay master, Xiaoqi will always be with you!"

Chu Guang was stunned when he heard this, then laughed, stretched out his index finger and gently touched its little head.

"Well, thanks to having you with me." "Hey, hey."

"It's okay master, Xiaoqi

Will always be with you! ”

Chu Guang was stunned when he heard this, then laughed, stretched out his index finger and gently touched its little head.

"Well, thanks to having - you are with me." / "Hey, hey. ”

Xiao Qi's face showed a satisfied smile and shook his calves happily.

Just when Chu Guang was thinking about whether to go to North Street for breakfast first, or directly avoid the physical examination at the difficult station, a familiar figure was walking towards this side from not far away.
