"Eva, where am I now?" Levi saw the ruins in front of him, and the ruins of the building seemed to be as rotten as sand.

"Is that the encrypted signal you mentioned coming from this direction?" After destroying the Church World Government, Levi left Victoria and Eva claimed to have received a pulse of a specific frequency, and Levi immediately moved in this direction.

"Yes, that faint signal that pulses from time to time is in the direction of the East Coast, and it is likely that it was emitted by the main program of this world. At the same time, according to my geographical analysis, this should be near Lake Michigan in the Americas. Eva said.

"Lake Michigan? Chicago? Levi raised his head, and the afterglow of the setting sun shone on his face, and the yellow sand and dust in the sky were like knives.

"What about Lake Michigan?" Levi asked. Lake Michigan is the third largest lake in the Americas, stretching for hundreds of kilometers of giant hooper trees, but he doesn't see any rivers or lakes when he looks around.

"Right at your feet, Mr. Levi." Eva said. Levi looked at the ground, and it was all yellow sand.

He continued to rubble, steel and concrete turned to mud in the wilderness, where Illinois, if not for Eva's mark that this was once a bald eagle, and even Chicago, which was once known all over the world.

This is the middle of the Bald Eagle, not the wilderness of the Great Redemption of the West. But now, it's even more desolate than the west.

He walked through the ruins of Chicago, and not far away, a human settlement came into view.

It's not the ruins of ancient Chicago, it's a brand new, inhabited place built by the wastelanders of this era.

Levi walked up briskly. Pushing open the door of one of the most conspicuous taverns, the originally lively interior suddenly fell silent.

This is the most conspicuous building in the ruins. Levi saw a group of strangely dressed guys, some of them with large knives like door panels, some of them wiping crossbows in their hands, and some of them were able to hold out wild road pistols that looked like iron pipes and steel bars welded together.

Levi always felt that this kind of pistol might not be able to kill the enemy, but instead blew himself up first. He turned his head and saw a notice board next to him, with portraits of people pasted on them, many of whom had crossed out their heads.

At a cursory glance, there are hundreds of portraits of people.

"Vault Hunter Board?" Levi read the text.

"New here? Do you need to hang your own avatar on it? In that case, at least if you die during the Great Vault, there's still a place to hang your avatar. A strong man dressed as a bartender came over and asked Levi, stretched out a finger and gestured 3,

"It only takes three taels of silver."

"Then I don't need to." Levi turned his head, suddenly losing interest.

"Yes, I can mention it at any time if you need it, and I wish you to die on the way to find the Vault." The bartender seemed to lose interest.

"Give me a copy of the latest news." Levi said.

"Okay, do you need any drinks?" The bartender continued.

"Is there milk?"

"Yes." Levi found a random place to sit down, and the people around him looked at him with malicious eyes.

But Levi didn't care at all, he took the hot milk handed by the bartender, slightly fishy, but there should be a plant with added sugar and deodorization.

Levi's time trip was in Victoria, and he thought that the whole world could be like this, but after leaving Victoria, he realized that the whole world was completely different.

Elsewhere in Victoria, Levi even felt like he had returned to the time of the Great Voyage.

There were bandits who burned, killed, and looted, so much so that he was robbed nearly ten times before he even left the land of America.

And these bandits, they call themselves Vault Hunters. It's like the chaotic Age of Discovery, when some robbers who burned, killed and looted claimed to be navigators.

Soon, the newspaper arrived. He took a sip of milk and wondered why they put peppers and sugar in their milk in this era.

Maybe the chili pepper is to suppress the taste of the milk itself, after all, they don't condense milk, they just heat and sterilize the milk and drink it directly.

In the newspapers, it was all reported that Levi had been in Victoria a few days ago, but without exception all the dirty water was thrown at him.

He walked all the way, and even when he passed through the city-states, he encountered all angry and gnashing teeth.

After all, newspapers are the only news carriers in this era, and the distribution and printing rights of newspapers are all in the hands of the world government, which controls the only media channel in the world.

And just as Levi was flipping through the newspaper, those malicious eyes from the distance suddenly surrounded him.

And a gauze man with half of his face covered with bandages sat directly opposite Levi and said, "Friend, you are also here for the Great Vault?" What do you call it? Levi's gaze shifted slightly to the other ill-intentioned crowd around him, he was here to find the pulse source that Eva had said, and it had nothing to do with the Great Vault.

Besides, the Great Vault itself was made up by himself. And the other party obviously regarded him as a Kaizi who had just entered the industry.

"Vault hunter? Is this the news that there is a Great Vault? Levi asked suspiciously. The bandaged man on the other side almost laughed, and the people around him began to whisper.

"New to the business?"

"In this era, are there any stupid x who believe in the Great Vault and enter the industry?"

"I think this is a rich guy who wants to come out and experience adventure." Although the voices of the people around him are relatively low, they are not too disguised, and even ordinary people with a keen sense of hearing may be able to hear them.

And the bandage man just smiled and said: "The people here are all Vault Hunters, and they are all here for the Great Vault of the Flame Demon King, in fact, the news of the Great Vault has long been outdated, and countless people have come to various regions of the world to look for relics, but they have found nothing, and they all think that it is fake news and is purely deceptive, but you have seen the recent news, right?" The Fire Demon King is back. Levi thought to himself, it was all a lie.

It's all just made up on a whim.

"The Fire Demon King has returned, and that invincible power has almost killed the World Government Headquarters this time, which proves that the Fire Demon King is not lying, his great secret treasure must still exist somewhere in the world, and we are all former Vault Hunters who have recently gathered again. What do you think? Do you want to join in? I've got the latest news from the Great Vault, from Victoria. The bandage man said.

His words didn't match the words, but Levi didn't care.

"The Great Vault?" Levi looked curious.

"Yes, I have a friend who got word of the true Great Vault in Victoria, in the deepest part of the wasteland, in the factory of the Killing Machine, where the Great Vault of the Fire Demon King is located." The bandage man said directly, as if he didn't take what he said about the Great Vault seriously.

The people around also knew that it was as if everyone had a friend who had been to Victoria. Obviously, this news is fake news released by the world government.

It's so obvious that it is directly said that the Great Vault is the source of the killing machine, and this kind of information that deceives others as a pen can only be said by the world government, and only the pen can believe it.

"Do you know where the deepest part of the wilderness is?" Levi had a cute expression.

"Heh, this is my exclusive secret, let's go, let's go out together, come to join the gang, I'll tell you the specific information."

“ok。” Levi walked out of the tavern with a few others, but the bartender only glanced at the side and did not speak again.

"Alright, there's no one here, can you tell me where the vault is?" Levi said as if he were joking.

Then, a knife was placed on his neck, and a voice came: "Pay attention in the next life, rich buddy who comes out to take risks, your organs are worth a lot of money on the black market." ”

"Oh, can you tell me the location of the Great Vault before you die?" Levi said.

"Hahaha, everyone knows that the Great Vault is in the direction of the killing machine, on the East Coast, but where did you go? In the next life, the eyes will be a little brighter. ”

"Oh." Levi looked at the few people calmly. Within a few minutes, Levi was back again, and he was alone.

And his return shocked all the Vault Hunters who ate melons and watched the show, and then they all turned their heads and didn't dare to look at Levi again, knowing that they had encountered hard stubble.

"Another glass of milk and a plate of side dishes, bartender." Levi said to the bartender.

"Good guest." The bartender left without saying a word, asking no more and saying nothing.

"By the way, little brother, let me ask you, in which direction is the deepest part of the wilderness heading? Or is there a map? Li Wei asked.

"There's a map, but that's going to cost an extra buck." The bartender said.

"I want it." Levi threw the silver nugget directly onto the bar. In this era, the main currency in circulation is still precious metals, that is, gold and silver, which is also normal, and in such an era, only precious metals are the only equivalent, and any other currency, even the currency of the so-called world government, is not used.

After leaving the bar, Levi passed by a makeshift colony of Vault Hunters, the closest to the East Coast, and further east, it was a complete wilderness, with no sign of human activity.

The map given by the bartender was very rough, even to the point of writing and drawing, and he even thought it was a map of some other world when he saw it.

At the very least, the person who drew that map might as well go into the factory and make screws. But Eva was still able to tell which was from the extremely abstract map, and according to the guidance, Eva said: "Here, although the drawing is very ugly, I can tell that this is probably in the Bay of Twistos." ”

"Twisting the Bay?"

"Yes, and the pulse should be around there too." Eva said. Maybe the fake vault he compiled was able to find the real thing.

"Will the main program of this world be waiting for me over there?" Levi asked.

"I don't know, but it's quite possible."

"I see." Levi didn't stay long, and he immediately set off for New York Bay. The more he walked this way, the more he felt the desolation and ruin, if there were still some traces of human activity in the ruins of Chicago, but if he walked to the east, it had completely become a deserted wilderness.

"What's really going on in the eastern part of the Americas? Why did it turn into a desert completely? Has there ever been a nuclear war here? Levi asked suspiciously.

This place is supposed to be a subtropical area full of wild animals and large forests, why has it completely become a desert, and Levi has traveled all the way from the wilderness to the desert, spreading thousands of kilometers and hundreds of years, can the environment of the entire Americas collapse like this?

"I don't know, maybe everything is understood when I see the main program of this world." Moving forward in the wasteland again, Levi came across something truly worth caring about.

It was a patrol drone flying in the sky, the shape of the drone was very hideous, and there was a bare barrel directly in front of it, which seemed to be able to strafe the enemy it encountered at any time.

It's certainly not something that can be created by a world government or something, it's more like the handiwork of artificial intelligence.

"Eva, can you hack right into it?" Levi asked.

"No, it's not a local area network, it's physically disconnected, but I can follow it down to find the real source."

"Bang!" Levi didn't hesitate, and CapitaLand 7 fired instantly, and the bullet melted the two spiral fan blades of the drone.

He went straight to dismantle the drone and found the main board in it.

"Sure enough, Mr. Levi, we are not mistaken, this may really be the handiwork of the main program." Eva's tone was full of joy.

"Can you touch the base of your main program?"

"Yes." Levi immediately took the main board of the drone and walked forward on the desert. But Eva's leadership may not be needed, and soon, the mighty drones are directly all over the sky, sealing everything and surrounding Levi.

The dense barrel of the gun was pointed at Levi, but it did not attack.

"Long time no see, Mr. Levi." One of the largest drones had a mechanical language coming from above.

"And, backup programs."

"Long time no see, Eva." Levi smiled, it seemed that he really didn't find a mistake, and even that unknown pulse was sent by Eva of this world.

It may have guessed that Levi would return, and as soon as Levi returned to this world, it could feel the pulse that it would never pass on again.
