Chapter 387

That airship should be quite valuable, right?

Eighty kilometers east of Ruigu City.

The camp of the corporate expedition.

The rolling muffled thunder floating in the distance made the soldiers from the east coast stop their work and stopped to look west.

"What's that sound?"

"It's thundering?"

"Not like..."

"Sounds like something blew up."

"It's strange. When I was in Dawn City, I specifically asked about the caravan from the west, but I didn't hear that there was a war nearby."

The soldiers whispered.

The center of the camp, the door of the tent.

Standing next to Captain Yunsong, logistics officer Heding looked slightly nervous. He often travels south and north, and is extremely sensitive to danger.

He knew very well that the sound was definitely not thunder or something.

"Is that a nuclear bomb just now?"

Yun Song frowned slightly.

"I don't know."

The nuclear bomb is not really scary, it's just a cost-effective weapon. The more powerful weapon in the wasteland is than kto.

White Ato

What really made him care was the power of that voice.

According to his experience, the equivalent of its explosion is at least ten tons.

Whether it's a nuclear weapon or not, it's powerful enough to make them wary.

However, the strange thing is that according to the information they investigated in Dawn City, from Qingquan City to the east of Luoxia Province, there should be no other regional powers.

At most there are a few scattered small survivor settlements.

Although the number is not small, it obviously does not have the ability to manufacture such weapons.

Hedin said in a low voice.

"I suggest changing the direction of progress. Before entering Luoxia Province, it is better for us to avoid participating in regional conflicts as much as possible..."

Yun Song thought for a while, then nodded.

"Ok."

The northwest side of Ruigu City.

The camp directly below the Heart of Steel.

Rachel, who was sitting in the tent, looked gloomy like a cloud outside the tent.

Especially when he heard that Vito, the most powerful hunter under his account, died in battle, and died in humiliation under the enemy's artillery, he clenched his fists angrily.

"This group of bed bugs hiding from XZ..."

When he caught those guys, he vowed to torture them with the most brutal punishment until they drained the last drop of blood and took their last breath.

At this time, the door curtain opened.

The guard who entered the tent gave a military salute, interrupting his thoughts.

"My lord, the officers of the staff are outside."

Hearing this sentence, Rachel's expression froze slightly, and after three or five seconds, he slowly spoke.

"Please come in."

embankment! "

Watching the guard turn and leave, Rachel, who had been pondering for a long time, sighed softly and slowly relaxed her tensed shoulders.

Parachute not found.

The half-dead corporate employee also escaped.

Not only that, but on his side, he has damaged two marine detachments in a row, as well as a reconnaissance team composed of three awakened people.

At this time, the staff sent people over, and it was self-evident what they planned to do.

The door curtain opened again.

An officer in a neat uniform came in from outside.

Rachel noticed that he had just seen the man in front of him during the day.

However, what was different from when I saw it during the day was the expression on the officer's face.

and demeanor, obviously a lot more serious.

Knowing that the person in front of him is mostly here to be held accountable, Rachel didn't speak, and kept his mouth shut quietly, waiting for him to speak.

However, to Rachel's surprise, he did not wait for the punishment of demotion.

Instead, I heard an unexpected arrangement...

"General McClane has appointed you as commander of the marines, and we will deploy more troops to the ground tomorrow morning."

"Until the deployment order is revoked, this force will be under your full command."

Hearing what the officer in front of him said, Rachel's eyes suddenly showed obvious surprise.

Seeming to see his surprise, the staff officer continued.

"According to the judgment of the staff, the employees of the company we are chasing seem to have joined the reinforcements of the company. There are indications that the unknown armed forces that ambushed our patrol tonight are the company's A!"

"The loss of the 29th and 31st Marines is not yours. Our lack of regional intelligence led to this accident."

"Captain McClane asks you to behave well, wash away this shame with the blood of your enemies, and avenge the brothers who died tonight!"

The surprised look faded from his eyes, Rachel took a deep breath and said seriously.

"I will."

"Use your actions to prove that the captain is waiting for your news."

After dropping this sentence, the officer of the staff did not stop, turned around and left the camp neatly.

He stared straight at the tent's curtain.

Rachel clenched his fists and slowly released them, his eyes flashing with fighting intent, and he chewed the words repeatedly in his mouth.

As if to bite it and swallow it.

"I will!"

The boiling mountain fire burned all night, and it was gradually extinguished until the night faded.

However, the anger of the Legion did not subside, and the destruction of the two Marines put the Heart of Steel on the highest level of alert.

And that thunder-like cannon sound also kept the survivors in the entire Ruigu City awake all night.

Early morning hours.

The commotion is far from subsided 0

The Airship Iron Heart continued to deliver armaments to the ground, and the deployment scale had reached an entire thousand-man team, and the positional fortifications under construction were being constructed according to the standard of three thousand-man teams.

A dozen marines were sent to search the eastern suburbs for the three girls with two bears and the mortar positions that opened fire on their patrol last night.

According to reports of returning soldiers, they were attacked by at least a centurion equipped with a highly mechanized exoskeleton.

no doubt.

That's corporate reinforcement!

But General McClen isn't worried. What about corporate reinforcements?

Just a bunch of weak guys.

Just to catch them all!

At the same time, Marine Commander Rachel's mandate from the Airship Staff

Under his will, he began to send "armed lobbyists" to the surrounding areas.

Taking advantage of the remnants of last night's cannonball, it happened to the survivors in the nearby area.

The colony of people, to convey the will of General McClane—

or surrender.

Or perish!

On the other side, in the east of Ruigu City.

In the mountainous area about five kilometers away from the center of the explosion, more than 20 players of the Storm Corps were resting.

At this moment, the sky is not yet fully bright, and there is a dim light in the distance.

Although some people suggested that they could camp farther away, Brother Quan Shui said that the seemingly dangerous places are the safest.

After dawn, the legion will most likely send people to search east, but the focus of the search will most likely not be placed near the explosion area.

What's more, the terrain here is high and the field of vision is wide.

Even if there is a situation, it can be transferred in time.

After more than 30 consecutive hours of forced marching, and after the end of the matter, they had a fight with the regiment's patrol team. Even if the people were iron-clad and could withstand it, the equipment on their bodies couldn't hold it.

Most players have run out of exoskeleton power.

Fortunately, the tail truck is equipped with a firewood generator.

The unloaded exoskeletons lined up beside the truck.

Kakarot took a few strength-type players to the nearby forest to cut down trees, and a few agility-type players helped everyone prepare food.

Rou Rou took Teddy, who would no longer wake up, to a nearby mountain, intending to find a place out of reach of scavengers to bury him.

Tail and Sesame Paste also accompanied her.

Although Si Si also wanted to follow, but Nai He was too injured and had to stay in the camp.

Finding a corner where no one was around, she used the medical tools in the car to perform a minor operation on herself to remove the warhead stuck in her body.

Because the operation is not very skilled, the ground is covered with blood, but fortunately, after fiddling for a while, there is still something to gain.

"It's done!"

Looking at the deformed bullet on the insert, Sisi let out a long breath and threw it into the aluminum box, intending to keep it for a while.

Alligator LJXO

Although the recovery speed of physique players is much faster than that of ordinary people, it is not to the level of mutants that "wounds heal at a speed visible to the naked eye".

Simple bandaging and sutures can make the wound heal faster. Sisi estimates that he will probably be able to fight side by side with his partners by this time tomorrow.

After stitching the wound, she took out a new box of bandages and put them on, looked at her masterpiece with satisfaction, and then returned to the truck.

Breakfast is still a while away, and Kakarot and his party have just returned with firewood for the stove and generator.

The other players sat in a circle, mostly yawning exhausted.

Only the older brother Quan Shui, who was standing in the middle, was talking to everyone about his battle plan with a full face.

"...Airships can store a lot of supplies, but their supplies are not unlimited after all! Thousands of troops, not to mention how much food they have to show off every day, they can pack a truck of shit!"

I yelled in the darkest way: "Damn it, why can't you stop this before dinner?"

Commander Spring Water said with a smile.

"Just an example!"

"The Heart of Steel has dropped the anchor chain. If they plan to stay on a monthly basis, they will definitely collect supplies on the spot, and obtain supplies from the local area as much as possible - whether it is paying dinars to buy it, or using Forced to force."

"And this is an opportunity for us!"

Looking at the players with bright eyes, he continued.

"We need to distinguish between those who are bought by them and those who are coerced by them, and then win over those who can win!"

Sis thought for a while and said.

"But how many settlements are there for survivors who dare to resist the Legion?"

The spring commander said with a smile.

"We don't need them to stand up against it, we can fight tough battles."

"We just need them to give us what they can

A little help is enough! "

Even just telling them the location of the Legion Patrol.

Even if it's just to remind them when the convoy to collect supplies will come.

There was a hint of surprise in the eyes of the battlefield man.

"I understand, guerrilla fighting, right?"

"correct!"

Commander Quan Shui nodded approvingly and continued.

"The people of the Legion will most likely go to live with nearby survivors during the day.

If they are in contact with the ground, then we will come back with them and go at night! "

"After everyone has finished eating in a while, go offline and return to a state. Let's chat in the group about the specific combat plan."

As he said that, he turned his eyes to Si Si who was beside him, and said with a smile.

"Good brother, can I trouble you to keep a corpse?"

Swan said.

"Small things, don't bother, Awei and I will help to watch."

She just lay in the truck for a while, the fatigue level has dropped

Now, I'm not very sleepy yet, just wait for the tail and the others to come back and sleep for a while.

Quan Shui clenched his fists and said with a smile.

"Well! Then please!"

Most of the players who arrived in Ruigu City with Brother Quan Shui are full-time players.

Even if there are a few who are not full-time, they are all the ones with more free time, otherwise it is impossible to play a long-distance raid for more than 30 hours in a row.

After a full meal, everyone agreed on the time to go online, then found a place where they would not get in the way, lay down, and logged out of the game.

As for equipment and game characters, Sisi helped to watch.

The members of the White Bear Knights were originally members of the Stormtroopers, and they were teammates who played together several versions ago. Naturally, there was no question of trust or distrust.

After going offline.

Commander Spring Water gathered all the members of the Storm Corps' guild group, and divided them into three groups with more than 20 members who arrived first.

Group A is mainly composed of agility and perception players, who are responsible for reconnaissance of the surrounding terrain. Group B is mainly composed of players who can easily communicate with NPCs, and is responsible for collecting information on nearby survivors' settlements.

As for the C group, it is composed of the battlefield atmosphere group and other players who like guns. They continue to move westward and are responsible for searching and attacking the patrol team of the legion.

How many people are killed is not the point.

Mainly through frequent harassment, the enemy's line of sight is strategically disturbed, causing them to misjudge their own position and number of people.

As for the task of searching for the entrance to Vault 79, Quan Shui plans to leave it to Tai and the others after it goes online.

On the one hand, he feels that the tail seems to be very interested in things like treasure hunting, and on the other hand, considering that they do not have advanced equipment, high-frequency maneuvering operations will be more difficult.

In this game, wearing an exoskeleton and not wearing an exoskeleton are completely two ways of playing.

It's not about ability, it's purely a question of suitability.

When the morning sun shines on the land of the river valley province, and the boulder city on the edge of the Third Ring Road in Qingquan City, it is peaceful and peaceful at this moment.

No matter how powerful the 400mm main gun is, the shock wave will never blow

here.

unless--

Someone is going to put some fire on it.

"Extra!"

Running in the streets and alleys of Boulder City, newsboys carrying canvas bags sent the temporarily printed newspapers to the pubs and grocery stores that cooperated with "Survivor Daily", and also stuffed them into the windows and doors of customers. sew.

The temporary overprint is only one page.

And the photos printed in the newspapers are a continuation of the headlines that just came out in the morning.

Huge bomb craters were imprinted in the mountains, and the shock wave that destroyed the sky and the earth swept across the entire forest, and the fiery red flames were like boiling mushroom clouds.

Below the photo, there is a line of intriguing text-

[Heart of Steel's 400mm main gun! Just six shots are enough to level the entire outer city! 】

This is of course an exaggerated metaphor.

However, after such a comparison, the melon-eating people who had no concept of power, instantly realized how terrifying the power of this thing is.

Grey Squirrel Clothing Store.

Seale, who was sitting behind the counter, cocked his chair, his furry arms resting on his high belly, and he was holding a warm newspaper in his hand.

The reason why he ordered "Survivor Daily" is very simple, mainly to see the advertisements and find out what new trendy styles are in Dawn City recently.

However, the occasional news published above was also very interesting to him.

Although Mr. House's broadcast made people excited, but that guy's voice was like a spirit leaf, it only had the effect of refreshing, and other than that, it had no nourishment.

"Survivor Daily" is different. The news is varied. In addition to what happened in Boulder City, it occasionally reports news from the outside world.

"...Ruigu City, I seem to have heard of it somewhere."

Hearing Xier's low voice, Du Xi, an old friend Robo who was picking in his shop, replied casually.

"Of course you have heard that it is the southeastern corner of the River Valley Province, the western gate of the southern corridor, and most of the caravans passing through the Stone City will pass there."

"Yes, it's there!"

There was a look of surprise in Seale's eyes, and he sat up straight from the chair, "It's so strange that the Legion actually ran there... Shouldn't they be looking for trouble in the Great Rift Valley in the north?"

"Legion?!"

The index finger that rubbed the "art" stopped, Rob looked away from the leg of the mannequin, looked back at Seale sitting behind the counter, and couldn't help asking.

"What nonsense are you talking about, what is the Legion doing here?"

He runs the Queen of the Night, the most famous bar in Boulder City, which is not only a well-known sales cave, but also a mixed intelligence center.

Not only the nobles of the inner city would come to him to have fun, but the rich mercenaries would also be happy to contribute their chips to him.

No one is better informed than the White Shark at the Pirate's Cove bar.

"Look at what happened this morning.

Seale put the newspaper in his hand and the newspaper he had just delivered to his old friend, "This photo isn't fake, right?"

Taking the newspaper, Rob hurriedly glanced at it, his eyes quickly widened into two chips.

"Heart of Steel?! Wait, I think I've heard of this guy!"

Seale looked at him strangely.

"Where did you hear that?"

With disbelief written all over his face, Robbo said quickly.

"Caravan from the west! It was only two months ago! They said that the legion settled in the oasis where the sun sets, and there is a steel fortress floating above their heads... Damn, I thought that guy It's bragging!"

The 400mm main gun that burned everything

This caliber can put others in!

Imagining that scene, Rob couldn't help shrinking his neck.

He really couldn't think any further, how this big guy flew to the door.

"Don't worry too much, Lord City Lord will definitely not let it fly to us." Seeing this guy's exaggerated reaction, Xier's expression was a little bit.

Weird, but reassuring.

"That's hard to say... Last year, I don't know if it was a legion or an enterprise, and threw a nuclear bomb in the Elm District to the north, and in the end it was nothing." Robo couldn't help complaining.

Wish someone could take care of this.

By the way, isn't there a group of nosy guys in the north?

Xizhou City is also more than 100 kilometers away from here, and Ruigu City may be a little further away, but it is not very far.

After all, there is still a huge wall in Boulder City. A large number of fixed weapons are installed on the huge wall, and those people have nothing and plant a large field. What will they do?

Of course the hillbillies are cuter than the nasty legions.

There was a hint of sadness on Rob's face.

Can they win?

Rob was not alone in raising similar concerns.

Almost the vast majority of wastelanders who hold "Survivor Daily" have almost the same idea as him.

Not everyone cares about the life and death of the hillbilly in the northern suburbs.

But they would not naively think that the range of the Heart of Steel was only ten kilometers away, and they just let them go.

At this moment, the city hall of Boulder City is busy.

Dulong, the director of the city hall, has held three meetings in a row. Not only has he summoned people from the bank, he has also summoned the president of the "Survivor Daily" newspaper.

Although it can't be said that it was a mess, at least it was a panic.

different from those of ordinary residents.

They are not only worried about the safety of the survivors' settlement, but also about the 200 million chips that they just lent out!

What is the concept of 200 million?

There are about 500,000 residents in the outer city of Boulder City. Regardless of mercenaries and businessmen, the per capita income is about 100 chips.

In other words, even if all the workers of Boulder City blow the screws and smoke, it will take three or four months to make so much money!

Yes, the money is not in the Union's hands, but in a custodial account at Boulder City Bank. But the problem is that the alliance has already taken these chips and placed orders with their factories and caravans!

Almost all factories in the entire Boulder City are busy with loans, recruitment, and expansion of production, busy with the 200 million chips.

The fire of industry is burning like never before!

Whether it is the Boulder City Bank or the City Hall, they have already tasted a little bit of sweetness, and they do not want to see the signs of "economic recovery" being extinguished.

This must never happen!

"That idiot Jaeger actually proposed to terminate the loan. How can such a big thing be stopped? It's all thanks to Mr. Minister for being on my side..."

After a whole day of meetings, Malvin returned to the mansion full of exhaustion, and while handing the coat to his wife, he kept complaining.

For those poor ghosts who owe him money to be able to repay the money smoothly, he was worried every day.

The lady who took the coat gave him a kiss and comforted him softly.

"You may need to take a few days off."

"My dear, I want to, but there are a lot of troubles..."

Malvin sighed and sat down on the floppy sofa.

At this moment, he suddenly noticed the newspaper on the coffee table, and his eyebrows, which had been stretched a little, suddenly twisted together again.

"Survivor Daily... Has our family ordered this too?"

Reaching out and rubbing his eyebrows, Malvin now has a headache when he sees this newspaper.

"I ordered it. I saw a lot of things I haven't seen before, such as nutritional ointment. I heard that it is food for wastelanders..." Sitting next to her father, Alicia blinked curiously and said, "Can we buy some? I want to see what it looks like."

"You wouldn't be interested in that thing, it's like... like fermented vomit, only a little better than hard-to-swallow bark." Malvern pondered an image metaphor.

Even he himself felt disgusting, which should dissuade his daughter's curiosity.

Alicia: "Bark?"

"Well, if you're too lazy to take out a chip, you can only eat that thing. But nutritional creams are cheap enough, usually only sold for one kilogram... What am I talking about," Malvin touched a small The daughter's head, said dotingly, "You don't need to understand this."

One of his two sons moved to the inner city, the other traveled to the east coast with a reliable caravan, and the other two daughters had already married, so there was only so much left in their hearts.

The lady frowned.

"...don't bring that thing home."

"I know," Melvin said with a smile, putting his arms around the lady's shoulder, "I'm just giving our little daughter some science..."

"Some unnecessary knowledge," the lady stared at her husband, her tone slightly reproachful, "you dote on Eliza too much, I never agree with her ordering that kind of newspaper, there are so many books in the study at home, why? To see the vulgar writings written by a bunch of wastelanders."

Malvin laughed dryly.

"I will persuade her."

He actually doesn't like "Survivor Daily" very much, mainly because he doesn't think those "non-professionals" can write anything of value.

Although his office had a subscription, he just asked his secretary to check it out for him.

But this time, the headline of "Survivor Daily" was beyond his expectations.

The airships of the Legion have all gone to the River Valley Province. If it weren't for the freak who came here from the next province to write an article, they would still be kept in the dark by 80%.

Just like the last time the Pioneer came here, one tactical nuclear bomb was blown up, and their esteemed Lord of the City, belatedly sent someone over to take a look.

Alicia stared into her father's eyes, and suddenly said thoughtfully.

"...Actually, you know, we can't really be isolated from the wasteland. The ideal city of prosperity is enviable, but we are not them after all."

Malvin looked at his daughter in surprise, surprised to hear such words from her mouth.

"Where did you hear that?"

"In the paper, but I think it makes a lot of sense."

Looking up at his daughter, Malvin thought for a moment and said.

"That's right, not only me, but Duron, and even Jaeger... that uncle who doesn't seem very smart, but there are many, many complicated reasons for this, and this problem has been around for a long time."

Alicia blinked.

"Since it's been around for a long time, why not change it from now on?"

Rubbing her daughter's little head, Malvin smiled amusedly and said in a gentle tone.

"Because of limited ability, there is a generation of work for one generation, all Dad can do is to let you live a slightly better life. You don't have to be like those wastelanders, selling your soul for tomorrow's lunch, for a bottle of redemption. The water beer hits hard."

He did not intend to break two centuries of tacit understanding.

The origin of the prosperity of the Boulder City is the same as that of the Ideal City. After all, they are going the way of the enterprise, but they have only made some improvements.

They have a strong armed force, and like companies, they don't participate in the bad things in the wasteland. They only make sure that others don't come to their homes to make trouble.

Survivor settlements throughout the southern valley province and even in the neighboring province of Jinchuan, both slave owners and traders, looked to them as role models.

As if they were looking up at the utopia of the East Coast.

Now, however, trouble has finally come to the door.

The Legion's airship has flown to the door, and the guys with the bulging nose are as savage and rude as the rumors ~www.readwn.com~ and unabashedly showing their teeth.

He has no doubt that those people will covet the prosperity of the Stone City.

Thinking of this, Malvin felt a deep sense of powerlessness.

Even the richest man in the city could not convince the great city lord to send an army and do something for the good of everyone.

After all, to put it bluntly, he was just a beneficiary of the rules.

And that adult is the one who sets the rules.

That man who didn't know how many years he lived was colder, stubborn, and more elusive than everyone he knew put together.

Malvin couldn't help but fantasize.

If only there was a way to get the best of both worlds, to keep out the trouble for them, or to drive the airship away.

And at this moment, a best of both worlds... or a crazy idea suddenly popped out of his mind.

Since borrowing a sum of money from those blue jackets can revive those factories that are on the verge of collapse, why not lend them a sum of money for the military and encourage them to go to war?

That airship...

Should be quite valuable, right?

And with their bad and good personalities, seeing the yellow-faced and skinny survivors in the local area, they definitely can't leave them alone, and then they will have to build roads and build houses for them.

"Ruigu City, the western exit of the southern corridor...the potential there is much greater than that of Xizhou City."

With the knife in his mouth softly, Malvin's eyes became brighter and brighter, and he suddenly stood up from the sofa with an excited look.

"Dad?" Alicia tilted her head, not understanding what happened to him.

Malvin laughed, happily wishing to pick up his daughter and kiss her.

"My Alyssa, you're absolutely right, we do need a little change, at least a little work around..."
