This Game Is Too Realistic
Chapter 573 The Origin of Chaos (1/2)
A Viper transport plane landed on a bare field, and two soldiers wearing exoskeletons jumped out from the side of the cabin.
The two are soldiers of the Guards Regiment.
There are players active in the mission, and they usually provide support and assistance.
These warriors are all elites selected from other corps. All of them have received injections of expression-inducing serum, and they are all awakened without exception.
There is a saying on the forum that they are all managers' eyes.
However, some players don't think so. After all, who can be more manager-like in person and eyes than the hard-working "task masters"?
Looking at the plane with arc light spraying from its tail, Kong Kai's eyes were filled with greed, and he thought to himself that it would be great if he could just buy one.
This thing is definitely more comfortable to sit on than his old piece of wood.
The two soldiers ignored the guy. One of them walked directly to the body of the prosthetic mutant that was thrown on the ground, and the other walked to Lao Bai and gave a military salute.
"We were ordered by the administrator to recover the body of the mutant 'Og'."
He knocked on the breastplate with his right fist, and Lao Baiyan said briefly and concisely.
"I've seen it in the mission briefing, and I'll leave the rest to you."
"learn!"
The soldier nodded and was about to turn around when Lao Bai suddenly thought of something and said.
"By the way, are you going back to Dawn City directly?"
"Yes."
Seeing the soldier nodding, Lao Bai quickly asked.
"Would you like a ride? There are a few of us here who want to go back."
The soldier was stunned for a moment, then said after hesitating for a moment.
"I have to ask the manager for instructions..."
After saying that, he turned back to the plane, connected to the outpost communication base station at the junction of the province and the province through the airborne radio, and made contact with the shelter.
After a while, he came back.
"The manager said yes."
"Great." Lao Bai smiled and nodded, looking at Xinghe who was standing aside, "Friend, what's your mission?"
Xinghe was stunned.
"Ah?! Is this...ok?"
"What's so good about this? Anyway, there are so many empty seats, five people can still sit down." Looking at Xinghe who was still hesitant, Lao Bai patted him on the shoulder and said with a smile, "The managers are satisfied. , don’t be polite.”
As he spoke, he looked at the farmer who had woken up and was sitting next to the Mosquito attack aircraft.
"By the way, do you have any objection to letting me go?"
She didn't expect that the man wearing iron trousers would talk to her. When she came to her senses, she was startled and shook her head quickly, fearing that she would be neglected for a second.
"No, no!"
"He has no objection," Lao Bai looked at Xinghe and Luo Yu, and said with a smile, "Hurry and pick them up, don't waste time."
Xinghe took the farmer back to the Hope Farm, and Kong Kaikai did not dare to neglect at all, and sent the family out like a god of plague.
It can be seen that the hole is not very willing to give up these money trees, and I am really afraid of it. He had no doubt that it would take less than half an hour for these people to kill him...
"Do you really want to consider it? I'll give you... five hundred thousand silver coins, as long as you bring that guy over." Seeing that he was about to leave the galaxy, Kong Kai's face was full of reluctance.
Except for the newly weaned child, everyone in Zhou Nan's family had expressions of fear on their faces after hearing these words.
They knew that if the young man nodded, they would be dead.
But their worries are obviously unnecessary.
Looking at Master Kong with a hopeful look on his face, Xinghe smiled and said.
"You're overthinking it. Let alone five hundred thousand silver coins. Even if you give me one million silver coins, I won't be able to do it for you."
Kong Yu was in a hurry.
"Isn't the money enough? I'll pay -"
"It has nothing to do with money," Xinghe sighed, "We have things more expensive than silver coins here."
Such as gaming helmets.
But the NPC obviously didn't understand, and said after a pause.
"Is it something more expensive than... silver coins?"
Xinghe said casually: "That's right, in the Alliance, honor and dignity cannot be traded. We want to establish an alliance... the administrator said."
After hearing this, Kong Minkai knew that it was useless to say anything.
He suddenly felt as if he was deflated. He was sulking in his heart, but he didn't dare to get angry, so he could only point fingers and curse in a low voice.
"You keep saying, "Wait, wait...are you doing this to me? If I hadn't given this white-eyed wolf his freedom and lent him money to make a fortune, how could he have achieved what he has today!"
Looking at the guy who wanted to get angry but didn't dare, Xinghe shrugged his shoulders.
"I don't understand your business, and I have no interest in understanding it. Maybe he thinks that serving you for so many years is enough to repay the debt he owes you. The airplanes, cement, machine guns... many things here are actually from us. Isn’t it produced there? Maybe you think these are far from enough, but that’s another issue.”
"If you ask me, you should sign an agreement that stipulates ownership and profit sharing, and binds each other with something written in black and white. We will protect the legitimate rights and interests of all partners. Don't use something as vague as 'gratitude' , You actually know that there will be disputes in the future, right? Otherwise, you wouldn’t take the whole family as hostages.”
"Anyway, at least here, kidnapping is illegal, no matter the reason. You should be glad that this is not within the alliance for the time being, otherwise you wouldn't be a mercenary here."
Not yet... What does it mean?
Looking at the man who turned and left, a trace of fear appeared in Kong Kai's eyes, and the private soldiers and servants standing around looked at each other...
…
On the bare fields.
Sitting on the Viper transport plane, he said with a look of shame as he watched the fallen feathers watching him go.
"Good brother! I will come back to help you!"
They had agreed to help each other before, but he went back first, which made him somewhat embarrassed.
Luo Yu didn't care. He looked at the slowly rising transport plane and waved his hand with a smile.
"Yeah! I remembered it, have a nice trip!"
Carrying the remains of the cybernetic mutant, as well as Xinghe and Zhou Nan's family, the Viper transport plane flew towards Dawn City, which was more than 800 miles away, dragging two arcs of light.
Withdrawing his gaze from the plane, Lao Bai looked at Luo Yu.
"Let's go back to town and discuss it."
"Yes!" Luo Yu nodded and said with a smile, "I just want to introduce the team leader NPC to you. He is from here and knows more about the situation here than I do."
Fang Chang suddenly thought of something and said.
"Is he your employer or the farmer?"
Luo Yu scratched his head.
"This...I don't know, but my employer said that I can trust him, and he knew about the entrustment."
"That's it, that should be no problem." Fang Chang nodded, his face seemed to be thinking about something, but he didn't speak again.
When a person came towards Hope Town, the mayor of Hope Town and other important officials in the town had already greeted him.
The expressions on everyone's faces varied. Some were happy to survive the disaster, others were grateful and grateful, or they were alert and worried.
The leader bowed and said politely.
"I am Ma Hechang, the mayor of the town here. Please allow me to represent the more than a thousand residents of Hope Town and thank you for your help! If it weren't for you, I'm afraid not many people would survive tonight."
Looking at the mayor in front of him, Lao Bai said with a smile.
"You're welcome. If it's convenient, please prepare a hotel for us. We have to stay here for one night. Ah, of course, we will pay."
Seeing that this guy was about to pay, Ma Hechang said quickly.
"That's so embarrassing. We will arrange accommodation for you. You warriors can stay as long as you want!"
Lao Bai said with a smile.
"We won't disturb you for too long. We will leave early tomorrow morning..."
Ma Hechang breathed a sigh of relief when he heard that he was leaving early tomorrow morning.
Although he didn't know why the mutants suddenly went crazy and came here, his intuition told him that it must be related to the people in front of him.
After all, they have joined the Torch Church family, and strictly speaking, that strange tribe must be considered their ally.
Obviously these outsiders angered the mutants, otherwise he couldn't think of any other reason why the mutants would take action against their own people.
It was the Iron Tower before, but now there is an alliance. These people seem to be in a daze... Why do they have to find trouble with mutants?
In fact, they can reach an agreement just like civilized people.
I really hope they can be polite and don't bring their grudges into other people's homes.
However, despite thinking this, he still showed hospitality and regret on his face and said hypocritically.
"If you need anything please let us know."
"I know how to..." Lao Bai nodded, suddenly thought of something, and continued, "By the way, can you take me to visit the pastor in the town?"
Ma Hechang was stunned for a moment.
"You mean..."
Lao Bai went straight to the point and said.
"I heard there is a Torch Church here."
A look of surprise appeared on Ma Hechang's face, he nodded quickly and said.
"Ting, I'll take you there."
…
The town was quiet.
After the mutants were dealt with, many caravans dismantled the roadblocks at the door and ran north with their people without any explanation, fearing that if they stayed here one more night, they would be killed by the mutants.
The militiamen in the town did not dare to force them to stay and could only watch those people walk away.
After what happened, those people may never come here again. But people are more worried about the present than what will happen in the future.
Why are those mutants back here?
After suffering such a big loss, will they come back again...
Not to mention those foreigners.
Some people who were born and raised here are also hesitant to pack up their belongings and run away, completely leaving this place of right and wrong.
After entering the town, the players were divided into two teams.
Fang Chang and Luo Yu went to the hotel and contacted the leader of the Pinecone Farm caravan to see if they could find an opportunity to sneak into the farm.
Lao Bai, Ye Shi, Kuang Feng and others followed the mayor to the Torch Church.
The church was in the center of the town. It was a steeple-roofed house with a roof covered with tiles. It didn't look grand, nor was it shabby.
The main entrance is engraved with the emblem of the Torch Church - two inverted triangles forming a torch.
Seeing the man in power armor looking thoughtfully at the sign, Ma Hechang coughed lightly and said.
"Here is the church we built for the Holy Son...it was just built some time ago."
Lao Bai said casually.
"It seems that you quite love that Holy Son."
Ma Hechang said with a smile.
"Of course, he did bring us the gospel."
"In which way?"
"Which aspect? There are simply too many..." Ma Hechang was stunned for a moment, and then started talking about the treasures, "For example, that Naguo. In the past, there would be fights every now and then, those who herded cattle, farmed, cut down trees, and hunted. Everyone seems to be on the receiving end of gunfire, but since the emerald trees were planted in the town, those hardworking men no longer have these worries. They are like sheep, and they finally look like they should. ”
Lao Bai suddenly asked curiously.
"Do you eat that stuff too?"
"Of course," Ma Hechang continued with a smile, "I had a severe cold before, but I got better after eating Naguo."
Lao Bai is puzzled.
"Then why aren't you like them?"
He knew that the holy water could exempt him from the negative effects of "fugue travel", but he couldn't take injections every day, right?
Moreover, holy water only exempts people from negative effects and cannot stop the "fugue" state. Being immersed in the illusion of happiness is not a good thing.
Feeling pleasure in pain, listening to other people's voices...these effects cannot be eliminated by holy water.
Ma Hechang smiled sheepishly and said.
"That must be because of the gospel of the Holy Son... As long as we donate a little tax, we can retain our heart in his gospel. To put it simply, we can avoid entering the fugue state."
Seeing the confused look on the man's face, Ma Hechang took out a small medicine bottle.
"That's it. Its name is 'Gospel'. Just take one piece every morning when you wake up. It's like a mild holy water, but not so strong. It's just enough to keep people healthy and awake."
After staring at the small medicine bottle for a while, Lao Bai asked you with interest.
"How do you sell this?"
Ma Hechang said quickly.
"This is not a sale, it is a favor to those who are pious. As long as you obey the will of the Holy Son, you will be favored by the [Gospel]..."
"What is his will?"
"Build a church for the Holy Son to spread the faith, and then donate a small amount of property regularly to support the clergy."
The so-called "not much" here should mean that "it is not much" for people with money and strength, which shows that this "gospel" is effective and not cheap (anyone can afford it).
But where did this thing come from?
Vaguely seeming to be thinking about something, Lao Bai took out ten silver coins from his pocket and put them in the mayor's hand.
"Can you give me one?"
The mayor hesitated for a moment, but after seeing the weapons in these people's hands, he nodded, obediently knocked out a pill and handed it to Lao Bai.
"...Logically speaking, we cannot give it to anyone other than believers, but Mr. Apostle did not say what would happen if we did."
"Thank you." Lao Bai smiled lightly, handed the pills to Ye Shi, and stuffed them into his tactical backpack.
This thing is valuable research material.
The white-haired lady from the Institute of Biology should be interested.
Walking to the door of the church, Mayor Ma didn't knock on the door, but stretched out his hand to push the wooden door open.
The pastor in gray robe stood behind the wooden pulpit, mumbling some prayer.
Hearing the sound of the door being pushed open, he was so frightened that he immediately raised his head and breathed a sigh of relief when he saw that it wasn't a mutant coming in.
"Well...Mr. Wei, the crisis outside has been resolved! I forgot to tell you just now, sorry."
Seeing the pastor looking at him with a leering look, Mayor Ma coughed, winked at him vigorously, and continued.
"...These friends from far away are very interested in our faith. Please answer their questions."
Lao Bai noticed that although Mayor Ma looked pious when talking about the Holy Son, he did not have much respect for the servant of God in the church.
That sentence sounds polite, but it mostly means asking for help.
Most likely it was because he had converted recently, and the pastor was from the town.
Staring into the pastor's eyes, Lao Bai said with a smile.
"Excuse me, is it convenient to sit here?"
The pastor said nervously.
"As you please."
Lao Bai nodded, sat down on the bench in the front row, and then looked at Mayor Ma.
"We have something we want to talk to him about alone."
After understanding the meaning of these words, the mayor immediately smiled and said haha.
"Okay! Then I'll get going."
With that said, he turned around and left the church, and thoughtfully closed the door for everyone.
The church fell silent.
Being looked at by pairs of eyes, the priest swallowed his saliva and spoke nervously.
"My name is Wei Ming, I am the pastor here. I wonder if you... what do you want to ask me?"
Jue told him that these people did not like him.
There is clearly evil intention written in these eyes.
"Are you from this town?"
The pastor named Wei Ming nodded nervously.
"Yes..."
Lao Bai then asked Yu.
"How do you know Zhang Zhengyang?"
The tone of the interrogation made Wei Ming feel a little unhappy, but he did not dare to complain at all in the face of this group of ruthless people.
Those guys' exoskeletons were still hung with minced meat and blood, and a hideous blood-red mark was printed on them. Even without saying a word, it was enough to be a deterrent.
Swallowing, he looked nervously.
"...Two years ago, the apostle [came here], and I saw [him] at that time."
Having heard about this from the Iron Tower Organization, Lao Bai was not surprised and continued to ask.
"Is that the time when Naguo was brought?"
Wei Ming nodded.
"Yes...but it was different then and now. The fruit was not mature at first and could only grow in a hot environment. I also heard that it is a tropical crop, and it is said that it was introduced from several small islands in the south." ”
Although the Jinchuan Province is far south enough compared to the River Valley Province, it is far from tropical and can only be regarded as being next to the subtropical zone.
In the cold winter, it is likely to snow.
Lao Bai asked you with a frown.
“They improved crops?”
"Well..." Wei Ming nodded and glanced in the direction of the backyard, "There was no church here at the beginning, it was just a warehouse. The apostle rented a piece of land in the town and hired some people to help him try it out. Plant those special crops.”
Lao Bai stared at him and asked.
"Why did he ask you for help?"
Wei Ming answered the question truthfully.
"I'm a doctor in town... and I know a little bit about biology. He told me that if his plan goes well, there won't be a need for a clinic in the future, and if I'm willing to help him, he can Give me a higher reward."
"Anyone else besides you?"
"Yes."
Lao Bai asked Yu immediately.
"Are they still in town?"
Wei Ming smiled bitterly and shook his head.
"Those people were serfs bought from nearby farms. To put it mildly, they were both coolies and experimental subjects. The apostle made them eat the fruits they grew themselves. In addition to preaching, I also To record their clinical responses... After the first phase of the experiment, I have never seen those people again, but I can probably guess where they went. "
Lao Bai: "Where have you been?"
Wei Ming was silent for a long time this time.
After a moment, he spoke.
"I have no evidence...but I feel like he was sent to the mutants."
Lao Bai was stunned for a moment.
"Send to the mutants?"
Wei Ming had a bitter expression on his face and shook his head.
"There is no way, they are already dying. At that time, Nagoya root could not survive the winter. It was a withdrawal reaction for a whole winter. There were not enough antibiotics to help those people get through it... The apostle said to get rid of them, but I I don’t think it should be dealt with simply. Those people have had business dealings with mutants a long time ago. I even heard that——”
Seeing Wei Ming suddenly stop the topic, Lao Bai asked you immediately.
"What did you hear?"
Wei Ming was silent for a while, then slowly spoke.
"I heard that they would buy some slaves from nearby farms with dinars or Cr and send them to the mutant tribe in the city... They seemed to have reached some kind of contract. The mutants would do things for the church and guarantee the parish.㱕Safe, but relatively 㱕The church has to provide them with some people on a regular basis.”
Ye Shi couldn't help but cursed in a low voice.
"These scumbags."
Wei Ming couldn't understand what he was saying, but he could feel the anger in his tone, and he couldn't help but shrink his neck.
Lao Bai stared into his eyes.
"Since you are a doctor...you should be able to see that that thing called Naguo will destroy you."
Wei Ming's Adam's apple moved and he smiled bitterly.
"Sir... for those living in this wasteland, we say it is sooner or later for destruction. The difference is only one day or tomorrow."
Lao Bai fell into silence.
He suddenly felt some sympathy for this guy.
At this time, Guangfeng suddenly opened his mouth and said "Huan".
"This doesn't make sense... Listen to what you mean, the group of mutants in the city let you go because they reached an agreement with the Torch Church, but why? I heard that they rarely harassed you more than a century ago. nearby villages.”
Wei Ming sighed and said.
"This is actually not a contradiction. More than a century ago... It can even be said that twenty years ago, when I was a child, the 'odd' tribe was quite restrained towards us. It is only recently that it suddenly became violent.㹓Only the 㱕 thing.”
Ye Shi: "Why?"
"I also heard what my grandpa said." Seeing the expressions of the people sitting here listening attentively, Wei Ming slowly said, "It is said that a long time ago, there was a huge tower in the urban area of Jinhe City. How many settlements there are in inferior Boulder City, it may be larger than Boulder City at that time, there must be hundreds of thousands of people..."
His eyes seemed to be lost in memories of the previous meeting. After thinking for a moment, he continued.
"The Post-War Reconstruction Committee was managing it at that time. The settlement seemed to be called Singularity City or something...if I remember correctly."
"Later around the 1950s of the Wasteland Era, that is, a century and a half ago, some conflicts occurred within the committee... and they said they wanted to separate."
Lao Bai nodded.
"I've heard about this too. Around the 50th century of the Wasteland Era, the Post-War Reconstruction Committee officially announced its dissolution."
Wei Ming was stunned for a moment.
"Is there such a thing? It doesn't really matter. I heard that the committee ceased to exist in name only a long time ago, but that's not the key... The key is that at that time, a group of green-skinned guys ran over from the east."
"Those people claimed to be researchers at a certain facility, from the East Coast, and were persecuted by the Production Department. In order to preserve their research results and escape from the Production Department, they had no choice but to turn themselves into those people. He looks like a ghost."
When he heard [here], Ye Shi was shocked.
"Good guy... Ancestor of mutants?!"
Wei Ming nodded.
"Absolutely. That's how the earliest mutants in the rumors came about... they were human beings. Those guys are still human in nature. They can't eat humans. They are even more polite than humans. And the residents of Singularity City We get along pretty well.”
Ye Shi struggled to squeeze out half a sentence from his throat.
"But why..."
"Why are you starting to eat people now, right?" Wei Ming's face was full of complex expressions, "Honestly, I don't know. I only heard this from my grandfather..."
"But if I had to guess."
He swallowed and answered in an uncertain voice.
"Maybe... the earliest mutants thought they were still humans, but their children didn't think so."
