"These guys have a lot of spare time."

Union Building, Manager's Office.

Chu Guang, who was sitting at the desk, was busy scrolling through the forum for a while, and happened to see the post of the players, and then his face gradually showed the expression of the old man's subway mobile phone.

X-16 forget it.

What the hell is Niko?!

Be a person!

"Yes."

Xiao Qi, who was sitting on the pen holder, also nodded his little head with a thoughtful face, and said with a confident face, "It must be because the task reward is too high, and the task yield must be reduced!" ”

"The guys I'm talking about also include you, and you have enough leisure to fool around with them."

Chu Guang complained angrily, and poked his index finger on the little guy's head.

"Woo-ka?!"

Xiao Qi, who was hit by the "head blow", let out a short sad scream, and planted himself into the pen holder on his back in a strange posture, and it took a long time to poke his little head out of the pen holder pitifully.

There is no doubt that the pitiful expression was faked.

After getting along with this guy for so long, Chu Guang has long been familiar with the disposition of this artificial retard.

From the time it was just a wastebasket, it was quite proficient at pretending to be pitiful and stupid......

The discussion at the forum continues.

Soon, another player opened a new voting post, and the topic of discussion has changed from Brother Guang's CP to the XP planned by the dog, and the options are even more outrageous than the other, I don't know if it was inspired by the Lagrange point space station.

Chu Guang looked around at the voting options, thinking that he should have some blood pressure medicine in the drawer.

But soon he thought about it again, what does it have to do with dog planning, and my manager?

Chu Guang, who was suddenly enlightened, was instantly relieved, and even used the vest planned by the dog to give a thumbs up to the only kind-hearted crow who spoke for him in the post-

Raven: "Isn't it too much for you to make such a joke about Ah Guang?" I think Ah Guang is actually quite a good duck except for the occasional dark-bellied. 0.0”

Soon a group of do-gooders found out about the like, and the style of the whole post was reversed in an instant.

Tail: "!! ”

WC really has mosquitoes: "Tail calls good guy!" ”

Night Ten: "Solved the case!" Brother Light likes big ones! (laughs)"

Makabazi: "Insider!! Is it insider trading!! (Broken sound)"

Raven: "??? ”

The object of the fire quickly changed from a dog plot to a crow.

And a certain "mastermind" hiding behind the back turned off the holographic screen with satisfaction, and inserted the holographic computer pen back into the pen holder.

Xiao Qi still looked pitiful and lay on the side of the pen holder, and whispered aggrievedly.

"The host...... So you like the bigger ones, right? ”

Chu Guang said with a faint smile.

"I don't know, maybe? I remember saying it, but I didn't really think about it. ”

There are too many things for him to worry about, and it is inevitable that there will be things that he can't take care of.

Like his own life.

But now that the Wasteland Age is over, he'll have plenty of time to himself.

There's no need to rush for a while.

By the way, not long ago, when Xiao Qi took over the Lagrange point space station, the shelter system, which had not appeared for a long time, suddenly flashed in front of him again, and handed him the key to the B5 floor of the shelter.

It seems that the first generation of managers had long anticipated where the real threat would come from.

Of course.

Maybe that guy doesn't actually know about the celestials, but he just thinks that even the Lagrange space station has been recovered, and the wasteland era should be over, so the permission of the Lagrange space station is used as a condition for unlocking the last key.

According to the Vault System, it is the true administrator's office of Vault 404.

All along, Chu Guang has been working in the browsing room on the B4 floor and the office in the Alliance Building, and now he can finally move into the office that truly belongs to him.

Of course, where to work is actually a trivial matter, and what he cares about the most is actually another piece of information revealed by the shelter system-

It is said that it was the last place that the first administrators visited before disappearing.

I can't find the "Manager's Journal" that belonged to the original managers of Vault 404!

However, Chu Guang didn't rush to open the door in the retreat immediately.

Anyway, the key has already been obtained, and the B5 floor will not run away there, so he is not in a hurry for a while.

Not to mention that he still has work to deal with, and he will have to meet an old man who has been absent for a long time.

As for the secrets of the B5 floor, it's not too late to uncover them when he's off work......

……

In the Union Building, adjacent to the reception room of Conference Hall 1, a pair of strange guests walked into the room, surrounded by a group of guards.

One of the guests is Zhuang Lan, who was once an ace agent of the Enlightenment, but is now the founder and leader of the Watchmen and the gravedigger of the Enlightenment.

At this moment, she has removed the costume that belonged to Marik and regained her original appearance.

Chu Guang still remembered the first time he saw her, she was escorted in front of him by Ye Shi as a prisoner, and she didn't even dare to make eye contact with him in a terrified look.

As for her now, she seems to have changed as a different person, not only is she much more confident, but her spine is straighter.

And that's not all.

The fear that once stood in her eyes had now turned into a heartfelt respect.

Interestingly, the guy standing next to her was the opposite.

In the past, he was dressed in Yi Hai's skin and talked eloquently, but now he is like a maggot whose whole body has been hollowed out, his empty eyes are full of fear, and his shoulders are trembling as if he may pee out at any time.

The celestial man is dead.

The Enlightenment will die.

He no longer had an organization to rely on, and a clone shell to serve as a substitute for the dead.

He was put in the center of the stage without the slightest appearance of a leader, and he couldn't even speak clearly without a manuscript to read, and he was not even as good as an ordinary person.

Not wanting to look at him any more, Chu Guang just glanced at that face, then looked at the one standing next to him, and said in a gentle tone.

"You're here."

Zhuang Lan bowed slightly, with a hint of piety and sincerity in his respectful tone.

"I'm here to fulfill that promise I made many years ago...... If the Vault 68 disaster had not had the shadow of the Enlightenment, I would have been free. If the clues on the manager's log match your guess, you've won. ”

Chu Guang smiled faintly and said in a joking tone.

"Looks like I won."

Frankly.

He was surprised.

At that time, this move was just a player he dropped casually, but he didn't expect that it was this idle man who finally checkmated.

Not only did she find Vault 68 to find out the truth about the accident that year, but she also learned the Alliance's methods to unite the other brainwashed victims and form the Watchmen Organization.

Unite.

It is the most feared weapon of all oppressors.

Neither the demons on earth nor the ghosts in the sky dared to look directly at the light emanating from this weapon.

"Yes," Zhuang Lan said respectfully, "according to the gambling contract, I came back with the freedom you lent me...... From now on, my freedom is yours, and I am willing to be your blade in the darkness at your disposal. ”

Chu Guang saw Lu Bei's shadow from her, and believed that she did not say this for the purpose of sycophancy or flattery, let alone to seek some kind of political status.

She does it from the heart.

He didn't want her to do that, though.

The long bleak night was over, and he no longer needed anyone else to follow the torch in his hand.

Including Lu Bei, who has been following him.

He wanted them to be the light themselves, to continue on the path they believed in.

From then on, they were all torches.

"You're mistaken, my prize is the administrator log of Vault 68 instead of your freedom, you've already fulfilled your bet, though you probably don't remember it anymore."

Looking at Zhuang Lan, who raised his head blankly, Chu Guang continued in a chatty tone.

"As for your freedom, it is yours from the moment you are freed from the brainwashing of the Enlightenment, and you don't have to give it to anyone, let alone me."

"But...... I don't know what to do with it. ”

Zhuang Lan's expression was suddenly a little cramped and uneasy, and there was a rare hesitation in those originally resolute eyes, and he whispered in pieces.

"I founded the Watchmen to deal with the Enlightenment, but now the Enlightenment is finished......"

"Then let's change the target, for example...... Continuing to complete Vault 68 and other Vault unfinished missions? Now that you have overcome the Enlightenment, you may wish to try the opposite path to them, and see if it is as unworkable as they claim. ”

After all, the Enlightenment did not fall from the sky, it was born in a particular soil. It is not enough to destroy it, and if we do not change the soil that breeds malice together, we will have to face it again or many times in the future. ”

Looking at those gradually brightening eyes, Chu Guang continued in a gentle voice.

"Of course, you should talk to your companions rather than ask my opinion. Go back to them, the people there need you more than I do. ”

That's all there is to it.

He believed that Zhuang Lan, who was standing opposite, would definitely understand the meaning of his words.

After all, she got here on her own.

As Chu Guang expected, those resolute eyes finally no longer had any confusion.

She never needed an all-powerful manager, and her freedom was always hers.

From now on, she doesn't have to wait for anyone to arrive.

She herself was the one she was waiting for.

"Thank you......"

Zhuang Lan clenched his fists with both hands, and finally glanced at the respected manager gratefully, and then turned around and left.

Guiru, with her head down, wanted to slip away in the shadow behind her, but was stopped by the guard at the door holding down her shoulder.

The hand on his shoulder was like a pair of iron pliers, and he could not move even if he tried to feed.

The face was as dead as ashes, and for a moment it was filled with despair, like a freshly painted white wall.

“…… If you win, why bother me? Now I have nothing, and I don't threaten you at all......"

Turning to look at Chu Guang, Guixu's eyes were full of pleading, and he almost knelt down on the spot.

That undignified appearance is not even as good as that of President Charas, and even less as good as Tyre.

Whether it's the means or the scheming, this guy is far inferior to the careerists in the wasteland.

Chu Guang didn't like those careerists, and he didn't care about intrigues.

However, he couldn't help but wonder where this guy got his confidence, his blood was more orthodox than other people in the wasteland, and he was more worthy of equality.

Just because he was born in a refuge?

And the survivors of the wasteland are all jumping out of the stones?

Looking down at the face that he wanted to bury in the ground, Chu Guang said in a calm tone.

"At the beginning, you hid in Yi Hai's corpse and talked to me about a lot of things, and you also talked to me...... I can call you the Ruins, or the Zeroers. ”

"Now that we're face to face, I'm sitting in front of you, why can't you speak?"

The sound was not very high in decibels, but it sounded like a thunderclap in the ears of Guiru.

His knees couldn't help but weaken, and finally he couldn't hold back his fear, and knelt on the ground with a "plop".

"I ...... Damn it, I didn't know you knew those people......"

"You've got more blood on your hands than just the crew of the Trailblazer."

Chu Guang took out a thumb-sized hard drive from his pocket.

It was given to him by Zhuang Lan before, and it had been handed to him for a while.

"Any idea what this is?"

Pinching the thumb-sized hard drive, Chu Guang shook it in front of Guiru's desperate gaze, and then placed it on the table beside him.

"This is the administrator log of Vault 68, along with some survivor testimonies."

"Based on these clues, the conspiracy behind the fall of Vault 68 can be basically restored...... You bribed the Marauders to disguise themselves as refugees to trick the sympathy of the inhabitants of Vault 68, and took advantage of the latter's letting down their guard to loot the entire Vault. And you, on the other hand, come as a savior, take the survivors who survived as believers, and take them with you to preach your theory of extinction. ”

"It's not just the Pathfinder, I can only describe the sins you have committed. The Wasteland Age has never been the fault of the Wastelanders, but the price of the Age of Prosperity, but you have been 'indispensable' in renewing the long night. ”

Guiru has no time to listen to the crimes listed by Chu Guang.

Able to bend and stretch, he only shivered and grabbed the ground with his head, trying to win Chu Guang's sympathy as a fellow shelter resident, so that the latter could spare his own dog's life.

However, he didn't know that the more he was like this, the more disdainful his eyes became.

They are all dying, and they don't know what they really have sinned.

Not wanting to look at this poor boneless creature anymore, Chu Guang waved his hand at the guard standing at the door.

"Take it down."

The exoskeleton-clad guard stepped into the door with a murderous face, picked up the kneeling creature like a chicken, and dragged him out of the door despite the latter's wails and begs for mercy.

"Nope! I beg you, give me another chance! ”

"Black Box!! I know where some of the black boxes are!! As long as you will spare me, I will tell you! ”

"Please—"

Chu Guang didn't look at him again.

He will be tried by the Joint Court of the Adhesive Community and hanged on the eve of the new era.

That's something to be sure about.

No one will forgive him.

Even if it is an ideal city full of Our Lady, it will never hesitate to spare the life of the culprit......
