I'm a lord in the wasteland

Chapter 1 Hello, Miner!
300 years ago, the shortage of water resources triggered continuous wars all over the world.People fight each other and compete for limited resources, and the earth has become a bloody battlefield.

19 years after the world was destroyed by nuclear war, Arthur, the strongest artificial intelligence, started the action of restarting the new world and created the prototype of post-human society - the fog.People have returned to the primitive society of slash-and-burn farming and drinking blood, and the dark age of chaos, disorder, barrenness and evil has come again.As synthetic humans continue to develop and conquer the new world... the influence of the old human society has gradually become history...

2430年8月1日，下午15：52分。

On the Gobi Desert in Meteor Canyon, a few corroders, under the scorching sun, lay on the dry and cracked riverbed and dug repeatedly on the ground with simple tools, hoping to get a few seeds to sustain life.Suddenly, the ground began to shake weakly, and the Corruptors didn't have much reaction to this vision.For them, being able to fill their stomachs is the most important thing, otherwise they will become someone else's belly tomorrow.

In just a moment, the entire canyon was already full of flying sand and rocks, and the sky was dark.The Corruptors finally stopped what they were doing, and slowly looked up... The black shadow of a huge flying object was covering their heads at this moment.I saw that the huge imperial fleet stretching for several kilometers had already hovered above the canyon. The roar of the huge engine was as deafening as a meteorite hitting the ground, as if it was going to wipe out all the creatures on the ground.

In the middle of the fleet, there is a 2km long flagship [Holy Pope-class] battlecruiser. The twin heavy-duty ion turrets equipped on both sides of the bridge are slowly rising from the hull at this moment.Suddenly, the gun barrel began to charge rhythmically... The strange white light gradually became brighter and brighter, even covering up the sun's rays.Corruptors can only use hoods to completely cover their faces so as not to burn their eyes from the strong light...

In the cockpit of the flagship, a young officer dressed in the uniform of an imperial general and a black cloak was standing on the podium, staring intently at the approaching enemy group on the radar.Everyone in the cockpit stopped talking, only the beeps of the instruments and meters reminded everyone regularly-the melee is about to break out!
"General, the enemy's flagship is less than 50 kilometers away from us! The ion cannon is fully charged!"

"Pass my order, all fleets above cruisers will turn off all anti-aircraft artillery and short-range artillery. All implement the [key target] strategy. When the enemy ship enters 20 kilometers, all main guns will carry out a saturated attack on [Backlight]...I want Take out the enemy flagship in two salvos!"

"General... The enemy bomber formation is less than 10 kilometers away from us, please instruct!"

At this time, the young man raised his scepter and loudly issued a combat order.

"Carrier-based aircraft, all attack!"

"Yes!!"

All drones, interceptors, and escort boats in the fleet rushed out, and the enemy's bomber formation did not hesitate to enter the battle state immediately.Under the crazy sniping of interceptors and escort boats, the enemy's bombers were destroyed one after another like raindrops.However, due to the deactivation of the fleet's anti-aircraft weapons, many ships of the Imperial fleet were destroyed by bombs.Only the flagship [Holy Pope-class] battlecruiser, with its heavy composite armor, can remain calm and stable under the enemy's indiscriminate bombing during air strikes.

The enemy's bomber formation has been exhausted, and the remaining enemy fighter pilots have abandoned their teammates and returned to the mothership.All kinds of ships of the Imperial Fleet took advantage of the gaps of rest and quickly replaced their positions according to the battle positions. At this time, the canyon was already full of fire, and the wreckage of various aircraft and ships embellished this barren land like hell. .

"General, the enemy ship has entered range, please instruct!"

At this moment, at a distance visible to the naked eye, the enemy fleet gradually revealed its original appearance from the thick fog. [Backlight] The battleship is at the very center of the enemy ship. The electromagnetic armor system surrounds the entire hull. From a distance, it looks like a moon surrounded by stars and hangs on the other side of the canyon.

"All the main guns are aimed at [Backlight] and attack with all their strength!"

In an instant, tens of thousands of guns were fired, and various main guns implementing the [key target] strategy launched a key assault on the enemy fleet... The [Scorpion-class] defensive cruiser in the front row of the fleet was instantly bombarded into pieces!The intense flames caused by the explosion swallowed the battleship [Backlight] in an instant... There is absolutely no ship in this world that can withstand a round of salvos from the [Holy Pope-class] heavy ion cannon, at least not before the [Backlight]...

"General, [Backlight]'s magnetic field has disappeared...I...we won!"

"Hmph, you're overthinking yourself, and you dare to compete with the empire for kingship... No, what is this?!"

A bright light instantly illuminated the flagship's cockpit, and the young general turned around in surprise...

At this moment, countless energy torpedoes are approaching the middle gate from the side and rear of the fleet!The torpedo warheads shining with blue light, without the defense of short-range artillery, seemed to be in an uninhabited territory. After drawing a beautiful arc like fireworks in the air, it approached the imperial fleet step by step! ! !
"What? How did [Backlight] appear in this position?!"

"Urgent evasion!!"

[Boom—boom—]Among the violent explosions, the ammunition depot of the [Holy Pope Class] was penetrated by torpedoes, and after a muffled sound, the entire flagship was blown into two pieces...caused by a chain reaction Amidst the explosion, the cockpit finally became a sea of ​​flames!
"Ahhhhhhh...don't!!"

Suddenly, a slender man stood up from the beach.Due to the lack of blood supply caused by too long lethargy, he fell again.I don't know how long I slept, my cold body began to gradually regain consciousness, and I could even hear the sound of waves beating against my body.

Zhong Tian's body was as heavy as if it had been filled with lead, and he finally stood up with all his strength.

"Ah...it's this dream again..." The violent tearing sensation in his body made him feel that the dream just now was so real.

"Damn...it hurts..."

Through the reflection in the sea water, Zhong Tian found that he was standing naked on the beach at the moment.Messy hair is fluttering irregularly with the sea breeze, it seems that each hair has its own thoughts, a clear gaze emerges from the disheveled hair on the forehead, and the chapped lips can't hide the facial features as carved. .Due to years of digging for gold in the wild, Zhong Tian has a strong and sturdy body under his dark skin.

"It would be great if the dream was real..." he murmured to himself.

His current situation is like the first day everyone came to the "island", from nothing to nothing again.

Zhong Tian raised his wrist and quickly called up the survival guide to see how the last life cycle ended. Two lines of blue text slowly popped up on the system: ——
13:24:45 The synthetic human with unknown number hits your head with a bow and arrow, the distance is 15 meters, the damage is 50, and you are dead.
-
16:25:45 The rebirth system restarted successfully.

The price of this death was quite heavy.

Zhong Tian lost all the spoils of this trip: minerals, blueprints, and the most critical scraps.

"I can make a brand new mechanical crossbow with only 10 scraps! Why is it a little bit worse every time!!"

He roared towards the sea, and couldn't help feeling sad.

"I don't want to dig mines in this ghostly place until I die!"

"I want to have a name too!!!"

Zhong Tian is a miner belonging to the Barrel Fortress, code 6660.Speaking of this code made Zhong Tian very angry.

In the world of fog, not everyone can have a name.Some people can only use codes to represent names, such as Zhong Tian, ​​everyone calls him 6660.This means that his class is very low, just above the slaves.

Zhong Tian, ​​as a [name], maybe only the survival system still remembers it.

So maybe there's a weird sense of interdependence between the synthetic and the cold chip.

It records people's growth, stores people's income, records sleep, your recipes, and even [death].

This is what the fog world knows about you best.And the only thing you can rely on.

Zhong Tian stared blankly at this beautiful silver beach, indulging in the beautiful scenery, and seemed to have slightly forgotten the pain just now.

He inserted both hands into the sand, and tightly grasped the wet fine sand with his hands... Memories began to spin in his head like a movie...

This is an era that belongs to [New Mankind].

It is also an era when [human nature] is completely extinct.

300 years ago, a protracted nuclear war broke out in the human world until there was no living thing in the world anymore.

[Northern Federal Republic] Arthur, the strongest artificial intelligence, started the [New World] plan to restart human society 19 years after the military government stopped the order.

In order to rebuild the world, Arthur raised the preserved human embryos into new humans, that is, synthetic humans.

According to the difference in talent, all of them were implanted with chips that could record the growth of abilities.

The physical body of the synthetic human is also digitized and continues to survive in a world combined with virtual reality, and the human history that has ended in the new world created by Arthur continues.

In order for the synth to enter the role as soon as possible, according to the degree of matching between the chip and the host, some people retain some of the human abilities of the previous life. After completing the match with the host, the synth is quickly born into a world that matches its system.

Zhong Tian clicked on the survival guide on his wrist, and found the information that he had read countless times before coming to the "small island".
-
Combat strength test results, unknown error;——
Survival test score, unknown error;—
Talent test result, unknown error;——
Rebirth comprehensive test, grade F, occupation match 94.88% rock miner;——
Region Selection: Fog World
-
Population priority matching [small island] mainland
-
Successful ejection, good luck!
Remarks: Body and soul below E will be destroyed, just like roosters in a chicken farm.But only synths know their respawn rating.

"Why am I not destroyed?"

This problem has troubled Zhong Tian for 16 years.

The light blue system text was like a riddle, so he was arranged to become a low-level miner.

As a miner, you can only obey the distribution. Perhaps the question of who am I and where is like a joke in this world.

In this dark and savage wasteland era - the foggy world. [Synthetic Man], as the scavenger of [New World], survives like ants in the huge Petri dishes created by Adam that are independent of each other but have some kind of connection.There is only killing and plundering between people, attacking and bullying, and the flames of war everywhere, only the strong can have a place in this world.

When Zhong Tian was in a daze, a line of yellow text popped up in the survival guide, pulling him back to reality.
-
Where are you?Did you check the line just now and found that you didn't keep up? ?
This is the news from Old Blonde.

Lao Jin is the guard captain of the wine barrel fortress, and he has been in the fog world for many years.
-
I was dead a long time ago, beaten to death by a synthetic man, washed me to the beach along the river...
-
Do you know who did it?Although this is a border area, the forces that are hostile to us have long been wiped out.
-
The name and code are not displayed, the attacker has authority over me?
He quickly replied to Lao Jin and sent the rebirth coordinates, hoping that he could take a ride.
-
6660, work, you can figure it out yourself!We just copied a big house!
-
All vehicles are full and there is no place for you!
"Compared to saving the life of a low-level miner, ransacking the house is what the Barrel Fortress Guard should do."

Zhong Tian sighed helplessly, this is the fate that miners should face.

In fact, he had long been yearning for Lao Jin's guards, and the fort also set up a training camp for new soldiers.

It's just that the score of F in the rebirth comprehensive assessment is like a big stone on Zhong Tian's heart. Every time he musters up the courage to apply for the recruit test, there is always another voice in his heart sarcastically telling him to concentrate on mining instead of daydreaming.

"Ah, I really want to have my own mechanical crossbow!!!"

Zhong Tian suddenly jumped up and threw a stone to the distant sea.

I am not reconciled to the boring days when I can only be accompanied by hoes and rocks every day.

"I want the whole world to stop underestimating me!!"

He raised his chest and raised his head, clenched his fists and roared to the sea:
"I swear... from now on, I will not allow anyone to call me: Miner!!"

At this time, a girl's voice came out from the grass:
"Hello, little miner!"

　Every collection is the driving force for my update
