This Game is Too Real Chapter 657

  Chapter 657 Free?

Previously, the Buguera Free State sent Xavier, a salesman from the Flint Group, to contact the alliance. This time, a guy who claimed to be the foreign minister came suddenly. Chu Guang didn't know whether his identity was true or not. He set it aside.

  Honestly, he didn't really like those guys up north.

  Especially when rectifying the slums outside Boulder City, the alliance guards discovered that many gangs had the shadow of the Flint Group behind them.

  Those guys put on the cloak of private enterprise and did a lot of inappropriate deeds, and whenever they got into trouble, they would hide behind the back of the Free State.

  Since the Free State is the "protected country" of the Great Rift Valley, and the latter has a military force that is not inferior to the legions and enterprises, no one can do anything about these guys.

  Alliance guards cannot enter the Free State for law enforcement under the nose of the Great Rift Valley.

   And that Flint Group is also quite smart. It never provokes behemoths such as colleges, legions, and enterprises. At most, it only conducts business in their vassals or indirectly controlled settlements.

  For example, the settlements under the jurisdiction of the Science and Technology Committee, such as the countries in the Luoxia Province, or the more prosperous settlements in the eastern provinces, etc.

  That guy is like a nasty fly. Those who can kill it are not interested, and those who can't reach it can't slap it.

   What puzzled Chu Guang was, even if Norregg was really the foreign minister of the Free State, why the foreign minister came this time instead of the representative of the Huoshi Group.

  The Flint Group is the real controller of the Free State, and the other party must also know that the Alliance knows about it.

   Putting on an official vest and coming to contact him, Chu Guang couldn't help but wonder if there was something behind this that he didn't know.

  Could it be...

   Did the Great Rift Valley "advise" them again?

  Thinking of this, Chu Guang couldn't help playing with his expression, and decided to let the foreign minister hang out before he took the initiative to speak, and observe and observe first.

  If they can figure out what their weakness is, the initiative will undoubtedly be in the hands of the alliance...

   Having figured this out, Chu Guang temporarily put Norregg aside, and went to say hello to the true old friends of the alliance.

   What surprised him was that this time he actually met Luo Yong, a member of the corporate council and the major shareholder of the Silver Wing Group.

   This middle-aged man with extraordinary bearing first expressed his gratitude to Chu Guang for Luo Hua's matter, and then revealed a big news to him—

"The council does not object to joining the same cross-regional cooperation organization with the college, especially on the issue of solving the mutant slime mold. We actually put aside the grievances of a century and a half ago, but they are still thinking about the past... If you can convince them, we have no opinion, and we can even assume more responsibilities and obligations."

  After hearing this sentence, although Chu Guang was very surprised, it didn't show on his face, he just nodded and said with a smile.

   "I'm glad the council is taking that position and I'll do my best to convince them."

  Luo Yong smiled and raised his glass.

   Afterwards, the two exchanged a few pleasantries, and Chu Guang left and went to other places.

   Just as he was about to wander around the banquet hall, the master of ceremonies in charge of the banquet suddenly walked up to his side and whispered in a low voice.

   "Dear Mr. Manager, there is a guest who claims to be the manager of Vault No. 70 and wants to meet with you... We cannot confirm his identity. How do you think it is more appropriate to deal with it?"

  Vault 70?

  Hearing this sentence, Chu Guang was stunned for a moment.

  Although there were occasional shelter residents who roamed the wasteland to join the alliance, most of them came from the shelters that had been abandoned many years ago.

   It is also the first time to visit the Alliance as a shelter manager.

   It wasn't just that the master of ceremonies couldn't make up his mind, he also had an expression of surprise on his face.

"What's his name?"

  The master of ceremonies said respectfully.

   "He claims to be Sun Yuechi."

   Haven't heard of this name at all.

   But this is also normal.

  Vault 70 has never been discovered by the Coalition.

   Chu Guang spoke after thinking for a moment.

   "Tell him to the lounge, I'll be there later."

  The master of ceremonies nodded.

   "As ordered."

   Spacious lounge.

  Sun Yuechi, who was sitting on the sofa, looked at the wall clock on the wall frequently, and glanced at the VM worn on his arm from time to time, his expression seemed a little cramped.

  Although he is ready to contact the alliance manager, he is not 100% sure what kind of person the other party is, and what is his attitude towards other refuges.

   But at present, they are the most reliable in this area.

   After waiting for a full quarter of an hour in restlessness, heavy footsteps came from outside the lounge door.

  Sun Yuechi subconsciously sat up straight, and at this moment, the door of the lounge opened, and a man in power armor walked in.

  Seeing the azure blue power armor, Sun Yuechi was slightly surprised, and while getting up from the sofa, he subconsciously blurted out.

   "This is... Seven Willard's power armor?"

  Before in the square, he just glanced at it from a distance, and didn't see clearly the details of the blue power armor's appearance.

  Seeing that the man in front of him recognized the origin of this set of power armor on his body, Chu Guang also looked at him twice in surprise.

"You know him?"

   "Of course I know... Ah, but it's not the kind of knowledge you understand, it's just that I have learned some things about him unilaterally."

  Seeing Chu Guang's surprised expression, Sun Yuechi immediately realized that he had misunderstood, and then stretched out his right hand and said with a smile, "Please allow me to introduce myself. I am the manager of No. 70 shelter, Sun Yuechi."

   "Chu Guang, manager of Vault 404. Don't be so polite. We are all friends on the same front. Let's sit down and talk about anything."

   After shaking hands with him, Chu Guang invited him to sit down, and then looked curiously at the man who claimed to be the manager of No. 70 Vault.

   "Can you tell me, where did you learn about Seven?"

   "That's a long story."

   Seems to be thinking about where to start, Sun Yuechi stopped to think for a moment, and then slowly continued.

   "You should know that in addition to the obligation to accommodate survivors, most shelters also have the task of rebuilding civilization."

  Chu Guang nodded, but he didn't know why he mentioned this matter.

  Looking at Chu Guang with a questioning expression, Sun Yuechi didn't explain immediately, but continued.

"Vault 117 housed a large number of biologists and their descendants. In addition to carrying out the task of rebuilding the surface after the date of unblocking, they also had the task of studying the brood nest in the center of Qingquan City... After all, at the time people saw In the past, the mutant slime mold is the main cause of the wasteland, and only by solving the mutant slime mold can we hope to end the wasteland."

   Mutated creatures, marauders, mutants, and wastelanders who drive backwards... those are all problems that arise in the wasteland era.

  Only slime mold variants and nuclear radiation are real problems left over from history.

   Chu Guang nodded.

   "I heard that there is a resident of Vault 117 in the Alliance, and she is also our chief biologist. She is leading the research on the slime mold variant."

  Sun Yuechi said with a smile.

"Really? If Mr. Seven Willard knows, he should be very relieved. In short, our mission is similar to that of No. 117 shelter. In addition to performing the reconstruction mission after the blockade period is lifted, we also have research nearby. The mission of the brood."

   "Therefore, after discovering that the post-war reconstruction committee had withdrawn from Qingquan City, we managed to get in touch with the only Vault 117 in the area that still insisted on its mission. After all, cooperation in scientific research is always faster than working behind closed doors."

"Because we opened the door a hundred years earlier than them, and Seven Willard strictly implemented the blockade strategy of No. 117 shelter, so our people usually replace them to do the land part of the investigation, and they are more involved in the sample Research and data processing work."

   "This work has been going on for almost a century. We send people to Qingquan City almost every year to regularly contact and exchange information with Shelter 117, observe the slime mold fruiting bodies in the center of Qingquan City, and discuss the next research plan."

   When he said this, Sun Yuechi showed a slight regret on his expression, as if he was missing an old friend who passed away.

   It also seems to be nostalgic for a lost era.

"I took over the management authority of the previous manager ten years ago, and just ten years before I took over the authority of the manager, all our communication with Vault 117 stopped abruptly...that was the era of wasteland 191, you should know, right?"

   Chu Guang said solemnly.

   "Torch."

  Sun Yuechi nodded, and said with a complicated expression.

"Yes, when our people arrived again... there was only one empty shelter left, and we were unable to take over a shelter that was thousands of kilometers away from us, so we copied some data and left it in the original location and trust that other nearby shelters will find it once the lockdown is lifted."

   Speaking of this, Sun Yuechi looked at Chu Guang and smiled.

   "It seems that my senior's judgment is correct. Not only did you make good use of the resources of that shelter, but you even fulfilled their unfulfilled long-cherished wish... completely solved the brood nest in the center of Qingquan City."

  Hearing this sincere praise, Chu Guang smiled heartily, but soon noticed another detail mentioned in his words.

   "You also have broods there?"

   "Yes." Sun Yuechi nodded slightly, took out a holographic computer pen and placed it on the coffee table in front of the sofa, and lightly touched the button.

  Light blue holographic light and shadow intertwined above the coffee table to form a pair of giant silver discs.

  Chu Guang thought at first that he was showing himself the structure of shelter 70, until a blue planet appeared next to the silver disk.

   This turned out to be a space station!

   And combined with the earth and space elevators next to it as reference objects, the scale of this ring-shaped space station is not small!

  It floats next to the end of the space elevator, and circles around like a merry-go-round like other space stations, like a satellite city of that elevator.

   "This is what the Tianting space station looked like before... As for now, it has become like this."

  Sun Yuechi stretched out his index finger and slid gently.

I saw the blue planet and the space elevator dissipate into light blue light particles, and the giant silver disc seemed to have fallen into a bottomless water tank, and was immediately caught by a Scarlet tentacles protruding from the darkness entwined and filled every inch of the interior.

  Looking at the dumb Chu Guang, Sun Yuechi continued in a very soft voice.

"Our refuge is on the bottom of the sea, where there are a lot of untapped resources that can be used. We originally planned to build a settlement on the bottom of the sea that can accommodate 100,000 survivors, and then gradually expand to the sea and the shore to complete the Haiya Province and the southern region. The revival of the sea."

"However, the plan can never keep up with the changes. During the three-year war, the Tianting space station fell together with the collapse of the space elevator, and it landed near us. The huge impact kinetic energy is not inferior to a strategic nuclear weapon. Although our refuge All the damage was sustained, but the subsea engineering equipment we placed outside the refuge and the production units that have not yet been deployed are almost completely destroyed..."

   "Fuck!"

  When he heard this, Chu Guang couldn't help blurting out, seeing Sun Yuechi staring at him blankly, he coughed lightly to cover up his gaffe.

   "Sorry, I'm just a little surprised, your luck is really..."

  He couldn't find the right words to describe it for a while.

   Such a big space station just happened to fall at the door of the shelter.

  Although the shelters were built to withstand nuclear weapons strikes as a standard, Chu Guang has not heard of any shelters that were actually hit by nuclear weapons.

   Maybe they are the only refuge that took over a "strategic nuclear weapon" with their faces.

  Sun Yuechi made a helpless expression and shrugged his shoulders.

"The refuge in the deep sea is not just us. It is impossible to fall on our heads. Maybe, as you said, our luck is not very good... especially there is a bird on this space station. A brood that is hatching."

"When we left the sanctuary, the Three Years War had ended for a century, and the brood had also multiplied under the sea for a century, and it turned most of the space stations into a part of the nest. In order to build the seabed settlement, we Tried to recover some materials from it, but what can be recovered is quite limited. And even if we are careful enough, the fruiting bodies it hatched still caused us a lot of trouble."

  After listening to his words, Chu Guang probably guessed his purpose of coming here, presumably he hoped that he could help them solve the brood that entangled the space station.

   It happened that Chu Guang was also full of interest in that space station, so he immediately said with a serious expression.

   "No problem! It is our unshirkable responsibility to fight for the future of human civilization, and making the mutant slime mold harmless is exactly what we are best at. We will help you solve that trouble!"

"Thank you, I did see the right person." Sun Yuechi glanced at him gratefully, but quickly showed a shameful expression, "But... the help I want to ask you for is not just that. Before the nest, we have more imminent trouble."

   Without waiting for Chu Guang to ask, he paused and continued.

   "Like Vault 117, we are also facing a situation of falling apart."

  Chu Guang froze for a moment, and looked at him with a strange expression.

   "You...haven't you come out of the shelter a long time ago?"

"That's true, but the issue worthy of debate is not just whether to come out of the shelter. We have differences on many issues... Especially when our people saw the situation in Haiya Province, some people began to think that , allowing humans to evolve into a higher existence is also a way to end the wasteland era, even if the church's approach is a bit extreme."

  Looking at the stunned Chu Guang, the expression on Sun Yuechi's face was half bitter and half embarrassing.

   After all, this is really not something to be proud of.

  However, he still tried to justify a few words.

   "This is inevitable, after all, our cooperation with Vault 117 has lasted for nearly a century, and our people naturally have a good impression of those who escaped from the shackles..."

   "Do you... know what those lunatics did in Haiya province?" His Adam's apple moved, and Chu Guang looked at him and asked.

"I know," Sun Yuechi said with a wry smile, "but what's the use of me knowing? I'm different from you. You can make those people believe in you unconditionally, but I can only try to convince those who disagree. I think The practice of the Church of the Torch is too extreme. Even though we used to be friends, some people think that this is the price that must be paid. They even imagine that they can use the technology of the torch to transform themselves into elves traveling in the sea... What can I say? "

   Paused, he continued.

"Mistakes existed before I took over Vault 70. Although most of the residents still in the Vault are on my side, the disagreement comes from the sea settlements we built on the man-made islands in the southern seas point."

   "They established a federation under the leadership of some Torch supporters, and in fact have gotten rid of our control, and plan to fall into the embrace of the Torch Church."

"I have used almost all the means I can do, but I still can't stop them from getting closer to the Church of the Torch. It would be fine if they just intend to destroy themselves, but the problem is that they are not satisfied with this, and they plan to take Nago mycelium into the ocean."

   Pausing for a moment, Sun Yuechi looked at Chu Guang and said solemnly.

"I originally planned to go to the Great Rift Valley to seek help. After all, there are people from the War Construction Committee there. Maybe they will take action because of the urgency of the situation. However, on the way here, I heard many legends about you and the alliance. , let me change the destination of this trip."

"Those wastelanders don't have any hope for anything left by the War Construction Committee. They even regard those guys as one of the reasons why this world has become like this. However, when they talk about you and the alliance, they give Highly rated...even if not everyone likes you."

   Caught off guard by this flattery, Chu Guang coughed lightly and said modestly.

  "The rumors are always exaggerated than the facts...Compared with those ancient survivor forces, we are still too young."

"But you've accomplished what none of them have done, have you? Besides, I'm not just listening to the hearsay. I did observe this colony for a while, and you do have something that we don't have... not just technology aspect."

  Looking at Chu Guang seriously, Sun Yuechi continued in a non-joking tone.

   "So, I hope to hand over the management authority of No. 70 Vault to you, including the settlements we established on the sea."

  Chu Guang: "...?"

   Throwing down that sentence, Sun Yuechi didn't wait for Chu Guang to answer, he raised the VM worn on his left arm, stretched out his index finger and pointed on the screen.

  As a line of light blue pop-up windows appeared on the VM screen, he selected the confirm button twice in a row, completing the transfer of administrator rights.

  Looking at Sun Yuechi who let out a sigh of relief, Chu Guang had a dumbfounded expression on his face.

   Is this guy for real? ?

   Just when Chu Guang came back to his senses, this guy had completed all the procedures and readily threw him the key to No. 70 shelter.

  The whole process of handing over authority was much simpler than expected, and rows of light blue pop-up windows flashed quickly in front of Chu Guang's eyes.

  【The authority of the No. 70 shelter manager has been revoked...】

  【The new administrator is requested to go to Refuge No. 70, import the password on any terminal device connected to the main server of the refuge, and update the biometric information to complete the final confirmation procedure for the transfer of administrator authority. 】

  Looking at the stunned Chu Guang, Sun Yuechi smiled in relief, his tone much more relaxed than before.

   "I'm ashamed to hand over this mess to you, but this is the only thing I can do...Since you said that you want to unite everyone, then our future, please also entrust you!"

   (Thanks to the leader of "Meaningless Life" for the reward!!)
