Chapter 11 Farewell
"The angels are coming back because of your help, guests?"
Araya looked overjoyed, and now the Mother Tribe could finally come down from the cliffs.
"Yes... However, I would like to remind you that this does not mean that the Goddess will return to you anytime soon. ”
Andy gave the black card back to Araya, which he didn't need anymore.
Chrissy looked at the newly built villages around her that had been built by robots in amazement.
"If this old-world technology could be used in the wasteland, how many people would be saved from living in misery... Unfortunately, that was not doomed to be possible. ”
Helia stood on the sidelines, her face looking better, but she was obviously still worried about the goddess's problems.
"Although our crisis is now over, we still need the guidance of the Goddess... I really hope that the goddess will come back to us soon, but thank you again. ”
Alaya speaks to Helia, who then hands Andy a piece of paper.
"What's this?"
Andy took it and found that it had some descriptions of the ingredients and how to make them, and that it was supposed to be a recipe.
"This is how our village specialty is made, sorry guests, the Mother Tribe has nothing to reward for, this is the only thing we can offer to express our gratitude."
As Araya said this, Andy realized that this was something that described how the bitter drink was made.
"Damask flowers, Sandegun... Boil... Clearing away heat and fire, calming the mind and nourishing qi, helping wound healing, the taste is extremely bitter. ”
Andy glanced at it, and the paper also briefly described it, the damask flower was a green plant with yellow flowers, and the Sander root was somewhat similar to a large rhizome that grew in the ground, revealing a small head on the ground.
"It's okay, then we'll go."
Andy said goodbye, it didn't make sense for him to stay here anymore, and he glanced at it, and Eldron wasn't here.
"Where's Eldron? I'm still arguing with you? ”
Araya smiled.
"He's just throwing a tantrum... We've been arguing many times about how much we should rely on the Goddess. ”
Andy gave Araya a deep look.
"Whatever you believe in the Goddess, thank the Goddess... You must understand that the goddess cannot protect you forever, and I hope this incident is a wake-up call for you. ”
Araya was silent.
.......
Leaving the Mother Tribe, Andy walked towards the narrow valley where he had come, without looking back at the beautiful scenery behind him.
"What do you think of their little tribe?"
Chrissy looked back behind her in three steps, some robots were patrolling there, and the mother did not need to be afraid of any invasion from outsiders, because the combat power of those robots was not comparable to that of groups or individuals in this place full of natives.
"It's not normal."
Andy gave a quick answer.
"They're like a bunch of babies, cared for by their robot parents, but now the wasteland is so cruel and unforgiving, they're like soft meat in a clam shell, and if they are exposed, they will die instantly... Actually, I feel that there is a contradiction in the creation of this tribe. ”
"What contradiction?"
Andy recalls what he saw in Vault 29.
"Vault 29 is a harsh environment, cramped and inadequate... The people who built the shelter in the first place could afford to build such a behemoth in such an isolated place, and it was impossible not to make the space of the shelter more comfortable. Now there's only one possibility, and that's the Vault's designer, the Old World scientist I know of Dr. Derek, who didn't intend to keep its inhabitants in the Vault long in the design. ”
"That is, shortly after this group of children were chosen to take refuge in the Great War, they had to come out and start their lives... But now this support for them does not seem to be within the original design, otherwise ZAX-29 should not have stopped protecting the village because of Diana's disappearance. ”
Chrissy listened a little confused.
"So... What exactly do you have in mind? ”
Andy rubbed his chin and made a guess.
"I guess... The effect that the Vault was intended to achieve was not the harmonious and peaceful, isolationist and altruistic tribe that we now saw, but a tribe similar to the other indigenous tribes of the land... Only those people can survive independently and self-reliantly in the cruel post-war world, and the ZAX-29 was not designed to be a nanny from the beginning, but someone behind it forcibly turned everything around. ”
"Look at their lives now, and now that they've done that, why didn't they just design them as underground shelters that they could live in for a long time? The current status quo directly defeats the original purpose of the Vault..."
"Diana."
Andy's mind recalled the image of the goddess.
"Diana has a problem... Whoever she really was or what she was, she wasn't placed in the Vault, but she exerted such a long and intense influence over Vault 29 and the Twin Tribe through remote control, it wasn't the Vault's designers who created the Twin Tribe, but Diana who created the Twin Tribe. ”
"Maybe when we find Diana, there will be an answer to all this."
Andy stopped muttering about the speculation and left the area without looking back.
..........
When the two arrive at the Atomic Humvee, they see the demon crouching by the window of the car basking in the sun.
It heard Andy's approach, looked back at him vigilantly, and gradually relaxed its vigilance after half a ring, but there was no look of closeness on its face.
"You're such a special dog, I almost got bitten when I fed him."
Chrissy watched as the demon tried to tease it, and was unsurprisingly yelled.
Andy shrugged, opened the car door, and let the demon out and let it get out of the car and take a turn to solve his physical problems.
"I don't know what's going on, anyway, this dog is barely cooked, feeding it feels like paying off a debt, when you fight, it looks like a mental illness, and when you see blood, you start to go crazy...."
Pulling out a few bottles of water from the trunk, Andy sat in the car and drank while raising his left arm to look at the map, according to the map, driving northeast for another two to three days should reach the first important area on the road, the city of Denver.
Or in the words of the wastelanders.
Dog City.
"Dog City Denver.... Nothing is known about there, except that there are a lot of dogs there ... Probably also includes a sandstorm there. ”
Chrissy sat on the side humming a song that didn't know what the melody was, and Andy always felt familiar, but he couldn't remember where he had heard it.
Andy turned his head and noticed Chriss's dark circles again.
"Didn't you sleep well? It feels like you were like that when I first met you. ”
Chrissy closed her eyes and nodded.
"I have a problem, chronic insomnia.... It was useless to go to the doctor. ”
The demon got into the car from the outside, and Andy closed the door and got into the cab to start the car.
The two of them and a dog then rode to the northeast, the mysterious dog town.
You are a genius, remember in a second: Red Sweet Spring:
