Chapter Thirty-Seven: Small Talk on the Way

Cito went back to tinkering with her own things, and the others were either sleeping or tidying up in silence, and the atmosphere seemed obviously unsuitable for continuing the conversation.

Andy sat for a while, boredly flipped through the newspaper several times, and basically bragged about how good the facilities at Atlantis Spa were, and how great the other experiences were that went along with it.

It also includes the author's self-proclaimed feelings after experiencing a spa treatment.

"We all know that high-end SPAs are definitely not cheap, and the cost of a spa treatment is enough to compare the cost of a day in a high-end hotel, but there is an endless stream of people who are willing to spend money to experience it, why is that? Quite simply, it's definitely worth it. Imagine you, being out and out of life and exhausted by intrigue and intrigues, coming here to Atlantis, a state-of-the-art facility. Intimate and soothing, all the interior lighting has been carefully designed by experts to create a beautiful atmosphere. Ah~ Smell the aroma of that essential oil with your nostrils, and you will definitely feel your pores have all opened..... At this moment, what desire do you have left other than to lie down? ”

"Let's see what high-end care products will be used here? Fadoman caviar mask, the latest automatic aerobic facial treatment machine, high-end nail art.... Oh..... A hair oil massage performed by the master himself! ”

Andy then looked down, and there was a picture of a large square pool surrounded by white edges and steps. The surrounding environment decoration can be said to be splendid, although this is more than a hundred years ago, but to this day Andy is still fascinated. I didn't know it before, but now I know something..... The wastelanders think that the old world is a thing of the past that should be discarded, but if you know a little about it, you will find that the happiness of the old world is unimaginable to the wastelanders.

"Finally, I would like to introduce you to a high-tech product that has been installed in Atlantis, called the Soul Floating Chamber."

Andy raised his eyebrows, the name of this thing is a bit sharp, I don't know if the soul can float back if it floats out, it will be fun if it can't come back.

Below is a picture as usual, with a milky white oval instrument, the lid can be opened, and the person can lie in it completely.

"This new technological invention allows people to enjoy a relaxing experience after entering, and it is no exaggeration to say that it is as relaxing as lying on the clouds in a fairy tale...... You can even enjoy the sauna and steam bath inside, and experience music therapy and color therapy based on advanced scientific theories to fully soothe and relax your body and rejuvenate you from the inside out. ”

In your spare time, Atlantis has other entertainment options for you, from swimming and sunbathing in the indoor premium pool on the 10th floor, to gambling at Atlantis Casino, and even a night club and bar..... You won't regret choosing Atlantis, which is now in trial operation and ready to go. ”

The article is very long, but Andy has time now, the car has started, and it is going all the way in a certain direction, and the surroundings are quiet.

The others seemed to have endured a lot of physical exertion before, and most of them were resting, Andy couldn't figure out why, but he could guess that it might have something to do with the two tentative activities in Cito's mouth, and Johnson was still checking something, and after a while, he was muttering to the two henchmen who had not spoken much in the secluded place, and he couldn't figure out how he planned to carry out the activity.

Some snoring sounded, and Andy only felt himself getting sleepy.

The newspaper in front of him became more and more blurry, and his vision only stopped at the words mentioned in the newspaper, saying that the water source of Atlantis came from mineral water deep underground, and then fell asleep.

I don't know how long I slept, someone pushed Andy and forcibly woke him up.

When I opened my eyes, it was Johnson.

"Why didn't you take off your protective suit and go to sleep?"

Andy didn't know how to explain it, and excused himself by saying that he was afraid that he would not have time to change it and couldn't wait to explore the destination.

The faces of the others showed indescribable expressions.

Johnson nodded.

"It's good to have momentum..... It just takes perseverance and patience to get things done..... You'll ask Sito more about our destination, and we'll be there this afternoon. ”

Getting up from the folding bed, everyone else was eating lunch.

Andy is also hungry, but he can't always eat with a gas mask.....

"Maybe take a few bites while the others aren't looking?"

He opened the Pip-Boy and found that two prompts had popped up.

[When it is inconvenient to eat food directly, you can click to eat it directly in the beep boy, and the satiety effect is the same as that of normal food]

[Note that long-term use of this function may lead to degeneration of masticatory muscles and gastrointestinal disorders]

Andy's eyes lit up, and he found the mysterious jerky and clicked on it again and again, and soon felt full out of thin air.

Stood up and walked over to Cito, who was still there working on some strange little machinery.

"Oh, it's you, Andy, why don't you eat?"

"I ate too much yesterday, and I'm not hungry today. Anyway, I didn't see you eating? ”

Cito smiled.

"I don't need to eat much.... In fact, I can eat two meals a few weeks, and I don't eat too much at a time, so not only will you not see me eating later, but you won't even see me go to the bathroom..... Hey. ”

Andy, of course, was a little surprised.

"Why is that? Could it be that it's your racial advantage again? ”

"Isn't it..... You see how many benefits there are to be ghouls, you can live a long life without being afraid of radiation, and you don't even need to eat, drink,, pee, and so on.... At most, his face is a little uglier and his body stinks. ”

"Is there any way to become a ghoul?"

"That's simple, as long as you get your body to take in a lot of radiation..... Although this process will not be comfortable, your body will experience severe pain, and the whole body will gradually ulcerate, and the soft tissues will start to fall off..... You'll have headaches, hair loss, and blood all over your body.... Moreover, most of them will not turn into ghouls in the end, but will die due to severe radiation sickness. ”

Cito put down the gadget in his hand and looked at Andy.

"As far as I know.... You see, living a little longer is at least a little bit better than experience, isn't it? As far as I know, the most important thing that determines whether you can become a ghoul or not, in addition to the amount of radiation you ingest, is your genes. The reverse is also true. But people aren't those indifferent wasteland monsters that can absorb radiation and turn their blood green, most people don't have that..... This blessing? ”

Suddenly, there was a not-so-dramatic bump, but it didn't seem to be a surprise.

Johnson's voice came.

"The driver told me there were some berserk zombies ahead of me and that we were almost there."

Cito scratched the little hair left on his head.

"Oh, there's one more level to be a ghoul than I said, and even if you don't die from radiation sickness, radiation can completely destroy your brain and turn you into the walking dead....... This is worse than death. ”
