Vault 101......

The last time I visited Dr. Method, it seems like a long time ago.

There was a faint nostalgia in his heart inexplicably, and Chu Guang said after thinking for a moment.

"It's a hard place to describe."

Alyssa was slightly stunned.

"It's hard to describe what it means ......"

Seeing the trace of longing and yearning in his eyes, Chu Guang probably guessed that Pai should have blown something to her, so he thought for a moment and said.

"Most of the other shelters are preserved by survivors, some kind of technology, some kind of plan...... But what is preserved there is a memory of the era of prosperity. ”

Alyssa's eyes lit up, and she couldn't help but clench her two small fists.

"Prosperous Era!"

That legendary great era!

She had only seen a few words about that era in some books and picture books!

Looking at the longing eyes, Chu Guang probably guessed what she was thinking, although he couldn't bear it, he still poured cold water on her.

"It's just a memory of the Boom Era, and it may not be as rosy as you think. Entering Vault 101 is premised on abandoning the physical body, otherwise you can only get a brief glance as if you were sitting in a sightseeing car. ”

"Renunciation of the ...... of the Flesh"

"It's meant to be physically dead."

Alyssa involuntarily held her breath.

After a long time, she said a little stiffly.

"Sounds ...... It's like a tomb. ”

Chu Guang nodded in agreement.

"It's true that it's no different from a grave to people outside, but not necessarily to themselves."

Chu Guang didn't quite understand what Dr. Method said before, but after being exposed to so many AIs with different styles, he somewhat understood.

For AI, 1 second is not much different from a century. Of course, they knew that Vault 101 was destined to fall into complete sleep one day in the future, after all, it was not a very unpredictable ending, but they didn't really care.

Even the sun has a lifespan.

What's more, a person or a civilization has become a bubble?

They have already experienced a better and longer life than everyone else in that never-ending dream, and they have no memory of the outside world.

From a personal point of view, even if it is virtual, there is nothing to be ashamed of, their task is to live according to their own ideas.

And for that refuge, the meaning of its existence is to record their memories, thoughts, relationships, lifestyles, and everything about that era, and leave it for the future as some kind of revelation.

Chu Guang rarely told others that there was such a good place in the territory of the Alliance, and indulging in the realm of the deceased was not a good idea for the living.

In a sense, it was a more toxic poison than the ideals of the Ideal City, and even he had the idea of staying there.

Although it was only for a moment......

Alyssa was silent for a moment.

"Actually, I didn't want to live there, but sometimes I thought about it...... If only you could go back to that era and see it. ”

Probably thinking that her thoughts were a little naïve, she smiled embarrassedly and continued quietly.

"That way, we know where to go."

She's not alone.

Occasionally, the members of the workers' union feel lost.

They have overthrown the feudal landlords and obtained a bright future, but no one can tell them where they will go in the future.

Although everyone has reached a consensus to only do well in the present, it is impossible not to think about the future at all.

It would be nice to go back to that era and take a look.

She had fantasized about it more than once.

I saw the mystery in Alyssa's eyes (this chapter is not finished!) )

Chapter 554: The Taste of Blood

Blank, Chu Guang thought for a moment.

"I don't think that's necessarily the answer, and we're not necessarily going to a time in the past, but there's a lot to be learned and learned there."

"So I spoke with the administrators of Vault 101 to build a university on their camp on the surface."

Alyssa looked at him blankly.

“…… University? ”

Chu Guang nodded.

"Well, you can understand that it's a school. But unlike other full-time schools in the Alliance, people are there not just learning what we already know, but also exploring the future and the past. ”

Seeing that blank eyes gradually turned into a look of understanding, Chu Guang continued in a gentle tone.

"It's normal for you to feel lost, you're at the age of your most curious life, and you just have the courage to pursue your ideals at all costs, but that's not enough. You also need to see more things, understand the world, understand natural science, and then summarize your own experience and methods to find the answer...... In the process of exploration, you will naturally know where you are going. ”

The calendar was born in the field, not imagined out of thin air while lying on a straw mat, at least in his opinion, the process of exploration is more important than the answer.

Alyssa lowered her head.

After a moment, as if she had made up her mind, she nodded her chin vigorously and raised her head to look at Chu Guang again.

"That little fish...... It was only after studying in the school built in Vault 101 that he became so powerful, right? ”

"I'd like to go there if I could!"

The work that took her a week or two of overtime to complete, the little girl about her age checked it in just three days, and meticulously pointed out what she didn't do well.

And that's counting the time it takes to understand what the job is about.

This seemed to Alyssa to be incredible.

But after seeing those amazing mathematical tools and methods, all the incredulity turned into convincing.

That's knowledge you'll never know in your lifetime in Boulder.

She hopes to learn that knowledge back and help everyone here.

Maybe it's like what the manager said.

In the process, I may be able to find my future path slowly.

"Little Fish...... She's a special case, she happens to be good at math, but she did grow up to be what she is after studying at Camp 101. ”

Looking at the eyes that rekindled anticipation and longing, Chu Guang said seriously.

"As for going to Camp 101 to study, you should go and talk to your father."

"I actually asked my father, and my father said that I am already an assertive adult, let me think about things for myself in the future, and ask you if I don't understand...... He won't give me any more life advice. ”

As she said this, Alyssa stole a look at him with some embarrassment and continued in a low voice.

“…… If I can't make up my mind, can I ask you? ”

Although he didn't think he could help much, looking at the expectation flashing in his eyes, Chu Guang couldn't say those unkind words.

"Yes, but all I can give you is my advice, and in the end, it's up to you to decide how to choose."

The eyes full of anticipation instantly bloomed with a smile.

Nodding vigorously, Alyssa said happily.

"Hmmm! Thank you! ”

Looking at this polite little girl, Chu Guang smiled and said.

"You're welcome."

Thinking about tomorrow, he picked up a document from his desk.

"It just so happens that you're here, and I might have to ask you a favor for something—"

"No problem! Leave it to me! ”

Looking at the energetic Alyssa, Chu Guang Wanyi (this chapter is not finished!) )

Chapter 554: The Taste of Blood

Laughing, he handed her the document in his hand.

Taking the paper, Alyssa flipped through it cursoryly.

"What is this?"

"For Chinese New Year's Eve, every year we select the most popular recipes. This is...... The traditions of our refuge. In order to facilitate communication between Vault dwellers and survivors outside the Vault, the 'Most Popular Food for Wastelanders' judging option was added last year, so several judges were needed. ”

This year's judges are voted on the official website, and each settlement will select several judges, who will be voted for by players who are active in the local area.

Afraid that this guy is inflated, Chu Guang is not too embarrassed to say that her popularity on the official website forum is relatively high.

However, Alyssa didn't ask him why he made himself a judge, but only out of trust. After learning about the content of the event, her eyes suddenly lit up.

"Hmmm! I'll be hungry all day early to make room for my stomach! ”

Facing the "death-seeking" eyes, Chu Guang coughed lightly.

"You don't have to work hard to get to this ......"

……

Alyssa wasn't the only one chosen to be a judge for the Chinese New Year's Eve event, someone seemed to get more votes than her.

And it's a lot higher!

A detached house on the edge of Linghu Lake.

Dolly, who had just arrived home from work, suddenly showed a surprised expression on her face after hearing Fang Chang's explanation.

"Huh? Let me be a judge? ”

"Hmm...... Of course, this is just an invitation, and if you're not interested, you can turn it down. ”

After telling Dolly about the Chinese New Year's Eve event in full, Fang Chang's expression was slightly embarrassed.

This year's Chinese New Year's Eve event was judged by the players themselves, and he never expected that his good brothers would choose his wife with one vote.

Those who know him well know that he is a person who does not like to show affection.

Rather than showing off everywhere, he prefers to live his two-person world quietly, but he can't stand a group of bad friends asking about his private life every day.

This bunch of dog stuff.

I'm interested in other people's wives all day long!

So curious, go find one yourself!

"Oh roar...... Such an interesting thing, how could the reporter of the Daily Survivor miss it! ”

Hanging her handbag on a hanger in the doorway, Dolly had a narrow smile on her face and poked her forefinger at Fang Chang's arm.

"Dear Mr. Fang Chang, you won't let me go alone, right?"

Seeing that she didn't seem to have any intention of resigning at all, but instead looked excited, Fang Chang said with a helpless expression.

“…… Of course, how can I rest assured that my dear journalist lady went so far alone. ”

Seeing the rare look of embarrassment on the bad guy's face, Dolly proudly curled the corners of her lips slightly, and her heart was as sweet as honey.

Suddenly remembering what she had heard from her colleagues in the past few days, she said with some emotion.

"But then again, there's been a lot going on in Boulder City lately."

It doesn't matter if it's inside or outside the giant wall.

The alliance actually sent troops to wipe out the gangs in the slums, which she didn't expect as a reporter.

Fang Chang nodded.

"Well, a lot has happened, although it is still called Boulder City, it is probably completely different from the Boulder City you are familiar with."

"Let's go back and have a look!" Dolly couldn't help but have a hint of anticipation in her eyes.

The inner city is completely gone. @精华\/Shuge J·H·S·S·D·C·O·M first update~~

What will become of it?

Looking at the glint in those eyes, Fang Chang could feel the emotion in her heart, and reached out to touch the fluffy emerald green hair.

"Hmm."

"Let's go shopping together when we get back."

………

Boulder.

(This chapter is not finished!) )

Chapter 554: The Taste of Blood

In a certain kitchen of the Allied Army station, looking at the plates on the long table with indescribable things, Feng Qing said with a clear heart.

"So you're still failing?"

When she returned that day, the market was locked down, and she ran to Dawning again, but still didn't get anything on the list.

Although the mosquito didn't blame her, she was still embarrassed to stay in Dawning City until today before returning to Boulder City.

Then she received a new assignment to vacate the galley rented by the Goblin Corps.

She was also tasked with her best friend, Ghost.

I don't know why, this obviously simple errand task has a reward of up to 200 silver coins! And it also adds a risk label.

But she didn't panic at all.

It's just a matter of moving things out of the kitchen, which is much safer than the test flight of the new model!

She didn't hesitate to follow.

The ghost standing on the side spread his hands helplessly.

"We can't help it, because we don't have the spices, so we have to replace them with something else."

"I'm sorry!"

Looking at Feng Qing, who bowed his head and apologized, the ghost hurriedly comforted her and said.

"Ah, no need to apologize, I think you didn't buy it but reduced our losses. As I said earlier, cooking with myriapods won't work! ”

Feng Qing said hesitantly.

"But...... What about the Chinese New Year's Eve event? ”

The ghost scratched the back of his head.

"Think of other ways, it's really not okay to get something to mix it up, anyway, as long as you participate, there will be a mysterious gift."

Feng Qing breathed a sigh of relief.

Originally, cooking wasn't something that they were good at as combat pros, especially since she didn't know anything about cooking.

As soon as I came up, I challenged the difficult ingredients of the myriapods, and sure enough, it was still a little too strong.

His eyes fell on the materials piled up in the corner of the kitchen, and he couldn't help but look at the pile of black and swarthy lumps

Asked curiously.

"What are those? Is it also eaten? ”

With that, she walked over and reached out and picked up a piece.

Just about to take a bite, the ghost next to her saw this and hurriedly stopped her.

"Wait! That can't be eaten, that's charcoal! ”

Feng Qing was stunned.

"Wood, charcoal?"

"Hmmm! At first, the regiment leader planned to grill it with charcoal, and was told that the aroma of burning wood could also mask the smell of some food, but then it failed. ”

From the ghost's expression, he could probably make up the situation at that time, and Feng Qing looked at the other sack filled with yellow hard lumps.

"That'...... What about those? ”

Yolk?

Looking in her direction, the ghost said quickly.

"Ah, there's brimstone over there, and saltpeter or something."

Silently putting down the sulfur in his hand, Feng Qing glanced at the ghost with a subtle expression.

I said...... Was he really going to cook? ”

"Uh, maybe?"

The expression also subtly looked away, and the ghost, who was originally very sure, suddenly couldn't make up his mind, "Anyway, the luck of the best...... He probably gave up. ”

She thought it was a good thing.

The things that Lao Na made out were strange at best, but the things made by the mosquito boss were so good that they would send people away, and then they would have to be locked up in a small black room.

But it's rare that he's so interested in food.

Feng Qing looked at the crystals of the white flowers in the barrel on the side.

"What about those?"

"Ah, those are sugar! Mosquito Boss's Last Try! He was going to mask the smell of the meat with sweetness, but in the end everyone went to the toilet. ”

It's another memory I don't want to remember, the ghost's face (this chapter is not over!) )

Chapter 554: The Taste of Blood

A look of regret floated.

But this bucket of sugar is probably the only thing in the entire kitchen that can be stuffed directly into your mouth.

Looking at the bucket of sugar in a daze, Feng Qing said bitterly.

"It's a shame to waste so much sugar."

"Really?" The ghost sighed, folded his arms and said, "I've wanted to complain for a long time, that guy is simply wasting food." ”

Mask the stench of the myriapod with spices.

I'm afraid that the spices used up are more expensive than meat!

After staring at the bucket of sugar for a long time, Feng Qing's eyes suddenly lit up.

"It's better to ...... Let's just use the sugar to make something simple! ”

The ghost was stunned.

"Do you just use white sugar? That...... What can I do? ”

Candy?

It seems that the taste is also a bit monotonous.

Looking at his bewildered best friend, Feng Qing curled the corners of his mouth proudly.

"Marshmallow!"

Although she hadn't done it, she heard that the principle was simple.

As long as the sugar is heated and melted into syrup, the heating chamber is constantly rotated, and the syrup is sprayed out of the small holes under the action of centrifugal force, and it can solidify into sweet sugar threads in the air.

Hearing these three words, the ghost's eyes suddenly lit up.

"What a great idea! That's a lot more than a myriapod stewed vermicelli stick! ”

"Uh...... What kind of strange food is that? ”

"Inspired by snail flour...... Anyway, it's settled! I'll go find the mosquito boss and ask him to get a marshmallow machine! ”

The more I thought about it, the more I thought it was a great idea, and the ghost clenched his fists excitedly.

The mosquito boss should be moved to cry!

His hands-on skills are finally being used in normal places!

Rejoice, bro! @精华\/Shuge J.H·S·S·D·C·O·M error-free debut~~

Seeing that his suggestion seemed to come in handy, Feng Qing smiled embarrassedly.

"Hehe, I want to make more, and by the way, send some to the citrus them."

"Citrus?"

"Hmmm! A very cute child, very well-behaved, and very sensible! I promised her that I would visit her when I had time," looking at the ghost with his head tilted, Fengqing's eyes sparkled and said, "I'll introduce you tomorrow!" ”

"Uh-huh! Expect!! ”

Together, the two of them moved out the most dangerous sacks and barrels first.

Soon all that was left in the kitchen was glassware such as beakers, Erlenmeyer flasks, and some bottles and jars on the shelves.

Removing a glass bottle from the shelf, Fengqing opened the cap and sniffed, frowning.

"The smell of kerosene."

Why do you use kerosene for cooking?

In addition to kerosene, there are also some white particles the size of fingernails.

Whether there was any markings on the bottle, she couldn't decide what was inside.

"Do you still want these things? If you don't, I'll pour it. Gently shaking the glass bottle in his hand, Fengqing shouted to the ghost who was busy packing things not far away.

"Ah, it's all down," said the ghost casually without looking back, "Mosquito said that he didn't want any of the ingredients in the kitchen, and that we would dispose of them when we empty the kitchen." ”

"This stupid leader, it's too wasteful."

Fengqing shook his head, unscrewed the cap, and poured the contents of the bottle into the pool, unscrewing the faucet to rinse them away.

However, almost at the moment when she unscrewed the faucet, the puddle of pale yellow liquid suddenly burst into flames.

Thanks to the agility system, the reflex nerve is well developed.

Seeing that the situation was not right, she lowered herself with a spirit, and the fragments of the explosion flew almost above her head.

"What's going on?!"

Seeing the bottle rolling on the ground, the ghost's face changed instantly, and he said in shock (This chapter is not finished!). )

Chapter 554: The Taste of Blood

。

"Sodium! Worst...... I forgot! ”

The explosion ignited the kerosene without any suspense, and the flames splashing from the pool set fire to the shelves where the bottles and cans were placed not far away.

Under the effect of high temperatures, some bottles and cans began to undergo wonderful changes.

Looking at the shelves that began to have a chain reaction, Feng Qing swallowed his saliva and instinctively took a step back.

"What ......?"

"That's the sodium! Sodium metallic! ”

“？？？ What is he doing with that thing in the kitchen?! ”

"Hell knows!!"

From the explosion of the first glass bottle, what will happen next seems to be predestined.

Suddenly, there was a violent explosion in the otherwise peaceful station, and the fire and smoke came out of the kitchen window.

Fortunately, the power was not particularly great, and the house was not blown up.

Thinking that the gang had retaliated, the barracks immediately sounded the alarm, and a large number of heavily armed soldiers rushed over.

In the end, it turned out to be a false alarm.

After learning that it was the goblin corps that made a disturbance, the logistics chief didn't ask any more questions, but asked his subordinates to send a ticket to a certain corps commander with a black face.

It's not the first time this kind of thing has happened.

Looking at the string of dazzling zeros, the mosquito signed the ticket with tears in his eyes.

But the good thing is that people are fine.

Those charcoal and sugar and other things had been moved out in advance, and the two small players affected by the explosion were only slightly injured.

If you go for three days for this little thing and miss the cross-Chinese New Year's Eve event, it will be a big loss......

[Mission: Vacate the kitchen used by the Goblin Corps (Failed)]

The commotion that took place at the player's station was just a small episode, most of the food prepared by the players was of a relatively normal type, and the ruthless people who risked their lives to develop new recipes were only a handful after all.

Except for tomato scrambled eggs, which are chefs in reality, ordinary people don't expect to be able to take the lead with their swords.

This kind of festival activity is also lively, although there are a lot of team monster farming materials, but everyone is still participating in the mentality of playing.

Because of the active players, Boulder City, which has been deserted for more than half a month, has finally returned to its former liveliness because of the approaching festival.

In this way, it was finally the night of Chinese New Year's Eve. Browse * * * device * search * search: @精华\/Shuge...... Fastest update!

The decorated streets were lit up with lights, survivors took to the streets, and many shops that had been closed for most of the month reopened their doors.

Since last week, the construction team has begun to settle some wages according to the league's minimum wage daily, and the factory has been paying salaries in silver coins much earlier.

Goods have "grown" out of the shelves again, and people's purses, although they are not bulging, are already able to buy something.

Everything is getting better.

The night sky is lit up with colorful fireworks.

Not only the Iron Heart stopped in Dawning City, but even the anti-aircraft guns on the giant wall began to vent fireworks into the sky.

In front of the floor-to-ceiling windows of the Boulder Military Industrial Building, looking at the colorful flames in the night sky, Ibers smiled and clapped his palms.

"Not bad...... It's rare for me to watch an ingenious show. ”

In the name of hunting xenomorphs, he quietly cleaned up the marauder tribes around Boulder City, and then vigorously bloodied the gang forces in the slums.

So far, the new shareholder has been't behaved beyond his expectations, and it's been a long time since he's been so surprised by an organism.

Originally, he thought that the chaos in Boulder City would make Qingquan City turbulent for at least five or six years, but now it seems that this good show will come to an end in just one month.

The time bomb buried in the giant wall seemed to be defused silently before it even began to count.

Now that the slums have been cleaned up, and most of the city's factories have resumed production, (this chapter is not finished!). )

Chapter 554: The Taste of Blood

It may not be long before the state of emergency is lifted.

Maybe this celebration is the opportunity.

But Ibers was not disappointed, but more excited.

Underneath that peace and tranquility, he could already faintly smell blood...
