Chapter 13 The Returner

Chapter 13
Zhang Yucheng took a sip from his teacup and continued: "As a veteran, as the first batch of returnees in the early days, I specially called you here to tell you that even if all the special treatment for the returnees is cancelled, I will believe you. I will be able to perform outstandingly in my life and work in the future.”

"Because we..." After finishing speaking, he tapped his temple again: "There is this."

Tangning said, "Please rest assured, Commander, I will definitely work hard."

"Drink tea, drink tea..." Zhang Yucheng said with a smile: "Although there is no talk of returning or not returning in the residential area, every year we will absorb some young people with good performance and outstanding abilities from the outlying barren towns. , into the tower system."

"Everyone in the tower is equal, and a contribution point system is implemented. The greater the contribution, the higher the return."

"Is this the experience we learned from virtual city management?" Tangning asked.

"Exactly, the tricks created by the literati in the Ministry of the Interior." Zhang Yucheng smiled and said, "However, on behalf of the military, I agree with the system itself."

"Those who can do more work, more work, more rewards, give it to the system for scoring, it's fair and just! Don't you think so?"

Tangning nodded, "Yes, but the computing power of the virtual city..."

"These are headaches for the Academy of Sciences. I'm a soldier, so I just need to take care of myself." Zhang Yucheng waved his hand: "And I'm not worried about you. Last night on the outskirts of Han'an City, this morning in a I have just seen the battle on the Highway, and you performed very well."

"In view of your contribution to saving 22 soldiers from the third company of the first battalion of the reconnaissance brigade, killing the dire wolf king, discovering the super cold stiff tree, setting traps to trap and kill the snake, and collecting specimens, I, as one of the three directors of the Tacheng United Council One, I have approved your authorization to become a resident of Tacheng in the morning, became your referrer, and signed the authorization letter together with another director, Dean Wang whom you just met."

Tangning said gratefully, "Thank you Commander and Director."

Zhang Yucheng called another civilian soldier: "He is Yao Hua from my secretary class. I arranged for him to help you get acquainted with the life in the densely populated area of ​​Shudu as soon as possible. Your task now is to get acquainted with and make up for the past period as soon as possible. History, familiar with the history of the Shu capital settlement, familiar with the way of life here, and integrate into this big family as soon as possible.”

"Then we'll talk about other things."

Tangning said, "I completely obey the organization's arrangements. But... I have a request."

"You said."

"My companion... er, is that mutant dog, Tangyuan. It can survive independently in the wild, but... I hope to synchronize its identification signal so as not to be accidentally injured by the troops."

Zhang Yucheng said: "This is fine, but I can only guarantee that the troops will not attack it."

"The military organization in the settlement, in addition to the military, also has forces from those barren towns on the outskirts. The Revenant Hunter will definitely covet your... er, glutinous rice balls."

Tang Ning said, "I will let it operate in the south of Han'an City, and try not to enter the virtual address range of Skynet Shuzhou."

Zhang Yucheng nodded: "This is not a bad idea. The jungle, after all, is the world of alien beasts, and your alien beast is not easy to get along with at first sight."

"Then I will notify the troops, do this first?"

Tangning said gratefully, "Thank you Commander, this is really great."

Zhang Yucheng asked: "You still have a server and a drone, right?"

"Yes, there is a Peace III server obtained in Manzhou and a silver disc drone."

Zhang Yucheng couldn't help laughing: "Then you came from Manzhou, there must be a lot of valuable discoveries and videos along the way, and these can be converted into contribution values."

After finishing speaking, he narrowed his eyes at Tang Ning, "Let me tell you, Xiao Tang, this is a way to make money. Back then, I used this to subsidize my family a lot."

Seeing that Tang Ning didn't understand what he meant, Zhang Yucheng smiled and said, "Think about it, if you have a mutant beast partner like Tangyuan who can go deep into the jungle, and a drone to collect images, even if you collect mutant beast intelligence information and sell it to the military It’s a good job to sell to the Xenomorph Research Department of the Foreign Intelligence Bureau, or to sell it to the Academy of Sciences’ Mutant Biology Research Institute.”

After finishing speaking, he patted him on the shoulder: "Of course, as residents of the ghetto, we still have to talk about contributions. Your parents are both people who have made great contributions to our ghetto. You should take them as an example .”

"If ability is a kind of reward from God, as a capable person, you should reward this ability to as many people as possible. This is the meaning of the contribution value system, right?"

"Yes."

"Well, that's it!" Zhang Yucheng stood up and held out his hand to Tangning, "As a veteran, I can only arrange this special treatment for you now. But with the most sincere attitude, on behalf of the military, I welcome you Don you go back to the settlement!"

"Although you don't have the same treatment as before, you are still an honorable returnee. We had an old saying back then - when things are uncertain, trust your intuition."

"If you can go from the jungle at 28 degrees north latitude to Shudu at [-] degrees north latitude, I believe that your intuition is your best friend."

"I look forward to the day when you volunteer to join the army and make greater contributions to the settlement!"

Tangning quickly stood up and shook hands with Zhang Yucheng, "Thank you, Commander. I will be strict with myself and work harder."

Zhang Yucheng smiled and said: "Although you are now a person in the residential area, you still can't get away from some cutscenes of the Ministry of the Interior. Let Yao Hua take you there."

After Yao Hua brought Tangning out of the villa, Wang Hengshan came to Zhang Yucheng's side and looked at Tangning who was walking out of the villa through the large glass window, "Commander, is that all?"

"Let's leave it like this for now. He is the son of Old Tang and Lin Yu after all." Zhang Yucheng crossed his arms across his chest and watched as Qiu Heng greeted Tangning and the two who had been walking downstairs on the boulevard: "His parents The residence reserved for him is on Factory Street on the fourth floor of the tower, and we are showing our attitude to the Ministry of the Interior."

"But what if Tangning didn't go there, or didn't conflict with those people?"

"What did I just say? When things are uncertain, trust your intuition."

"My intuition, those people, will definitely find this young man..."

……

……

On the boulevard, several people walked towards the automatic car. Qiu Heng asked, "Tangning, did the commander tell you about the data transmission?"

Tangning nodded, "Yes, I've said it. The commander said that I can use the combat video data in exchange for contribution points."

Qiu Heng asked carefully: "Then do you agree?"

"I have no opinion."

Qiu Heng's face was like an iceberg, and he couldn't help showing a smile, "Then I'll go back to the Intelligence Bureau to prepare. Xiao Yao, take Tangning through the formalities, and let the Security Bureau cooperate to pass the information collected by Xiao Tang to the Alien Research Department! "

"Yes! Director Qiu, don't worry!" Yao Hua stood at attention.

After Qiu Heng left in a hurry, Yao Hua accompanied Tangning and boarded an automatic car.

Looking at Tangning who was staring out the car window, Yao Hua was very curious about this young man.

When the settlement was first built, the miracles created by the returnees are still legends today.

Most of them died heroically on the battlefield, and finally, in the crazy revenge of nature, they won precious opportunities for human beings, making the establishment of settlements possible.

At least that's what the history textbooks say.

How can this young man be able to let Commander Zhang personally receive him?
The point is, Tang Ning was personally sent by Director Qiu, who is known as one of the two big icebergs in the inhabited area, and Director Qiu, who is busy with every day, is still outside the commander's mansion, waiting until Tang Ning comes out?
"Secretary Yao, where are we going now?" Tangning asked.

"Ah..." Only then did Yao Hua realize that it is impolite to keep staring at others: "I'm sorry, I will take you to register as an official resident of Shudu's inhabited area first, and then get an injection for identity verification, and then exchange for Contribute."

"Ah."

The automatic car sent the two of them to an elevator entrance. Yao Hua led Tangning inside. When the elevator door opened again, the outside world had become a bustling world.

"Has the mutation of the undead been overcome?" Seeing such a scene, this was the first question that popped into Tangning's mind.

"Not yet, and this is exactly the necessity of identity authentication by injection." Yao Hua replied: "Because after the virus invades the human body, there will be some signs and changes in the electric field. Identity authentication also has another function, which is to monitor the individual's health status. , if it is determined to be E virus infection, the police force can deal with it in advance."

"It's not a solution." Tangning understood why the population segregation was not required in the residential area.

"However, many virus-infected people will also escape, fleeing to no-man's land outside the city, and finally..."

"The system cannot be monitored?"

"Panorama cut off the intercity network in Datong six years ago. Our surveillance in Shuzhou can only be limited to the Shuzhou area. If the infected escape to outside of Shuzhou, we still cannot monitor them."

"This technology has not yet broken through?"

"One of the important tasks of the Academy of Sciences is to restore the Skynet intercity network communication, but so far...it has not been successful."

"In other words, we don't have any information about the situation in other settlements?"

"Except for the four satellite cities, there is nothing else for the time being. The Shuzhou Basin is surrounded by mountains. The Academy of Sciences once thought about sending messages to other areas through missiles, but because of the cost, the disorder of the high-altitude electric field, and the impossibility of cross-regional navigation, it eventually failed. Failed."

"What about primitive radio technology?"

"Skynet signal interference is too complicated, the data is too large, and we rely too much on it. The signal of the original radio technology, in addition to wasting precious frequency bands, will be completely annihilated in the Skynet signal, Unable to obtain."

"This is really..." Tangning couldn't help but smiled wryly, "...Success is Liu Xiangdong, and defeat is Liu Xiangdong."

……

……

One hundred years ago in Datong, Liu Xiangdong, Chief Technology Officer of Panorama Company, declared that the application of full reality virtual technology is mature, and the virtual world will lead human beings into an era of spiritual freedom.

In the same year, the full-real satellite network system created by the Star Alliance was successfully connected to the grid. In the planetary synchronous orbit, 360 full-real network communication satellites, driven by solar energy, completely realized global information network coverage and provided free Ultra-high-speed full-real sense network service.
