Luo Yu: "What the hell?!"

Thunder Dharma King Professor Yang: "What's wrong with you?"

Luo Yu: "Let's go!!!"

Feng Qing: "0.0?"

Guigui: "What?"

Luo Yu: "The countdown to resurrection has moved! Hahahaha! Thank you, Brother Guang! Damn!"

What do you think I can do to you: "Smile, you guys keep acting, you look pretty similar, I just watch you pretending to be cool."

Irena: "Jealousy will indeed separate hostages. (Funny)"

Elf King Fugui: "+1 (funny)"

…

For a while.

Vault 404.

A group of heavily armed players are standing at the entrance to the B6 floor of the shelter.

What is certain now is that the entire B6 floor should be a laboratory, and it is a biological laboratory engaged in research on mutant slime mold.

From various indications, the research here seems to be 80% from the early days of the Wasteland Era, or even the longer period of the Three-Way War.

From the incomplete recording, it is obvious that the escaped experimental subject should be difficult to deal with, and even extremely dangerous!

Otherwise, all the guards on the floor would not have been wiped out, forcing the first-generation managers to perform "shock treatment" on the entire floor.

Of course Chu Guang would not do anything like sticking his face into the grass, especially knowing that there were landmines hidden in the grass.

What's more, he clearly has a group of young players who are not afraid of death, so why do he have to do such dangerous things by himself?

As soon as the Beta 0.4 version was officially updated, the players who were selected by Chu Guang to come here suddenly had a line of task pop-up windows on the VM on their arms.

[Mission: Recover the B6 floor of Shelter 404]

[Explanation: Preservation of the experimental body control on the B6 floor of Vault 404 caused the floor to be infected with slime mold. 】

【Target:

1. Search for possible mother bodies/mother nests.

2. Go to the laboratory to collect the experiment log.

3. Go to the computer room to search and upload data.

】

The light blue icon flashing on the VM screen confirmed the task just received from the manager, and Ye Shi's eyes flashed with excitement.

"Awesome! I didn't expect that I would receive such a big job from the rear!"

The Sunset Province is the home of the Storm Troops and the Skeleton Troops.

The Burning Legion has a small number of people, and its home field is a city, not an open plain. Therefore, the entire war is almost a soy sauce, and there is no sense of participation at all.

㱗Having been on the official forum for so long, this is a chance for him to show off.

Quitting, who was following Guangfeng, stared at the VM screen, and suddenly thought: "Do you think the experimental subject of Guangfeng will be Luo Yu?"

A smile that couldn't help but smile appeared on the expressionless face, Guangfeng touched the bridge of his nose and said.

"...It's possible, unless there is a time machine that can travel back to 100 㹓."

Quit smoking: "Damn it! Is there any time?!"

Kuangfeng: "...can you listen carefully to what I have to say?"

Looking at the plaque covering the wall, Ye Shi couldn't help but click his tongue.

"Oh my god...this thing has been cut off from water, electricity and air for so long, but it can still move!"

Kuangfeng looked around, thought for a moment and said.

"Well, it also disabled most of the cameras and 85% of the electronic equipment in the area... The situation here may be more complicated than we imagined."

"It doesn't matter if it's complicated or not, just do it and it's done!"

Equipped with OD-10 "Dragoon" power armor, Lao Yi grinned, raised his index finger to lock the visor of his helmet, and loaded the assault rifle in his hand.

Then, he said loudly in the communication channel.

"The mission has been updated. Our goal is to recover the occupied B6 area!"

"Team A is following me to search for the enemy's 'crystal' and inject inhibitors to contain it. Team B follows Ye Shi and goes to the sample library to search for experimental logs. Team C follows Kuang Feng and goes to the computer room. According to the mission prompts, Team B takes away the stored experimental data and data hard drive.”

"After the task is completed, we will gather at the entrance of the buffer workshop and make sure the signal is open at all times. The manager is watching us!"

"Action!"

The players tacitly divided into three teams and cautiously moved forward to search.

As an elite team with the highest combat power in the entire server, the Burning Corps is naturally comfortable in performing such special operations missions. No one is better at indoor close-quarters combat than them.

At the same time, Chu Guang, who was sitting in the reading room on the B4 floor, was following his players deep into this controlled biological laboratory through the camera equipment carried by the players.

In addition to him, Yin Fang and Heya were also invited here as "technical advisors" for this military operation, providing players with professional advice when necessary.

However, from the beginning of the operation, Heya's attention was completely fascinated by this large-scale and well-equipped laboratory.

That look was more than heartwarming.

Even to the point of envy - even jealousy.

"I don't understand! How much is your budget?! You are clearly behind us, why... are there so many good things?"

Facing that sour look, Chu Guang didn't know how to answer, so he simply pretended he didn't see it.

Ask him about things before the Wasteland Era and he has a hammer.

If you want to know, ask the first generation manager!

Staring at the computer screen, focusing on other things, Yin Fang touched his chin and gave his first immature suggestion for this operation.

"...Actually, I recommend sending in the android troops, so that even if something goes wrong, it won't provide more organic matter to the organisms there."

Chu Guang replied casually.

"I trust my soldiers, they are much easier to use than the androids."

Heya and Yin Fang both looked at Chu Guang in surprise, especially when they heard the word "use". However, the latter had an indifferent expression and stared intently at the video on the screen.

Just as I was chatting, "Team A" led by Lao Ji had already engaged the enemy.

And what's interesting is that the slime mold fruiting bodies they encountered were completely different from the group of fruiting bodies in Qingquan City.

A bunch of skinny humanoid fruiting bodies, just like the walking dead in zombie movies.

But not like those "zombie".

These gnawing-looking fruiting bodies will not appear in large groups, but will hide silently in the corners of corridors and behind overturned display cabinets.

He would even lie on the ground and pretend to be dead.

It won't wake up until someone approaches, and then launch an attack coldly, turning this happy RPG game into a horror game.

The advancement speed of players’ squad A and squad C has obviously slowed down.

On the other hand, Team B, led by Ye Shi, relied on their strong perception to predict hidden dangers time and time again, and quickly advanced to the area where the experiment logs were stored.

However, although the fruiting entities unexpectedly attacked one after another, the players did not suffer any battle damage, and no one was injured.

Those skinny walking zombies can at best scare the players.

No matter how weak the protection of the light cavalry's exoskeleton is, it will not be broken into pieces by the thin arm like a reed stick or bitten through by a few rotten teeth.

Not to mention powered armor.

In front of the battleship-grade alloy steel, the weak flesh and blood were like paper.

Lao Yi didn't even fire a shot, he directly pulled out the mace hanging on the armor, and smashed the walking corpse that rushed up to pieces with two bangs.

In this type of battle at extreme distances, rash firing can easily cause ricochet, and reflexively pulling the trigger can easily injure teammates. Compared to this, Leng Bingbing is more likely to take advantage of it.

"It is estimated that the long closed period resulted in the slime mold in this area not having enough nutrients to develop stronger fruiting bodies, coupled with the lack of hunting demand...these fruiting bodies are produced entirely for scavenging and energy conservation." He Ya touched her chin and fell into thought.

After getting the promise from Chu Guang to "give her the floor B6," she finally focused her attention on the slime mold on the floor.

Chu Guang thought for a moment before speaking.

"The lack of organic matter prevents the slime mold here from secreting large amounts of spores... Hey, why do I feel that this is the same as the No. 7 slime mold in Luogu?"

Yin Fang also nodded.

"The difference is only in the degree of scarcity... There is a desert in Luogu, and this is equivalent to a space station that cuts off supplies."

Chu Guang suddenly looked at Heya.

"Wait a minute, you said before... slime molds born in an environment that does not perform well are incompatible with each other, and will not exchange each other's genetic information. But what if slime molds were born in an environment with limited resources like this? ? Or in other words, are slime molds with similar environments compatible with each other? "

He knew that the problem he described was a bit awkward. After all, he was not a professional biologist and his wording was relatively unprofessional, and the idea that just popped up in his mind was also very abstract.

Heya thought seriously for a while and answered.

"In the situation you mentioned, interspecies competition and the flow of genetic information should proceed in a timely manner...or to put it more directly, it would be engulfment."

Chu Guang: "Swallowed?"

"Well," Heya nodded, "It's just my guess. If a and b are both different breeds produced in an environment of scarcity, then a and b will always have some genetic material between each other, which is the other person's. Just happen to be interested... and at this time, that part of the genetic material will be actively or passively inherited by one party after swallowing the other. "

"The genetic information of slime mold is not a simple line of code, but more like a 'library' composed of countless lines of code."

"When cultivating offspring, the mother nest or mother body will select a required genetic code from this library to make the offspring it needs. Even if the number of chromosomes of the gnawers and tyrants is not the same, they are still born from the same mother nest and belong to the same group. In this case, they are not individuals in the full sense, but more like organs on a huge individual... This is what I call a hive society."

"If you want to fully understand this creature, you must get their mother body and collect the original gene library used to synthesize offspring. That is the root of all offspring and the template for all offspring."

Just as Heya was explaining to Chu Guang, the players who went deep into the B6 layer finally encountered real trouble.

A shrill roar suddenly swept from the end of the corridor.

I saw a gray-black power armor standing at the end of the corridor.

It was burly, no less than the "Dragon Rider" power armor, and even had a better physique. Judging from the faded paint, it should be a police model.

The moment he saw the armor, the old man's heart wrinkled with alarm.

He threw the nail hammer in his hand suddenly, hitting the face of the power armor like a meteor.

With the double bonus of the strength attribute and the armor engine, even if a tank blocked it, it would be smashed into a dent.

However, the power armor just swung its arm and knocked the flying hammer away.

Without stopping, the power medium armor bent its legs slightly forward and then rushed over like a cannonball.

The old man raised the rifle in his hand and emptied a magazine of bullets, but did not leave a dent on the armor.

Seeing that the 7mm bullets could not break its defense, the old man simply threw away the rifle in his hand and pulled out the hot melt cutting axe hanging on his waist.

However——

The attacker was still one step faster than him.

The axe was still raised, and the attacker's shoulder armor came into close contact with his chest armor.

"Duang——!"

The two iron lumps collided, and the sound of metal collision echoed in the corridor. The distance was too close to support, and the three teammates behind could only watch the two gods fighting.

The old man, who almost fell down, barely stabilized his body with his left hand held tightly by the left arm of the intruder. He aimed at the gap on the side of the helmet, pulled out the combat knife with his left hand, held it in reverse, and stabbed him with a knife!

The airflow brought by the arm almost blew into the helmet, but the arm that was smashing down was held by the other arm of the intruder.

The shining blade and axe blade hung on the helmet, but could not move forward at all.

The shocking piece of meat squirmed under the broken armor, and the nuclear energy that had not yet been exhausted was converted into the most primitive and direct power by the slime mold.

From the gap in the broken armor, the old man vaguely saw a scarlet light.

That was the sight of the hunter.

Behind the killing and bloodthirsty energy, burning is an appetite that is more frightening than hatred.

It is extremely hungry...

The old man, whose arms were clamped, felt a little bit of difficulty. When he used all his strength to press down, he couldn't help but be secretly surprised in his heart.

This guy——

It's harder to deal with than the corrupt knight!

"Fuck!"

The blood in his chest surged!

The old man roared and activated his power talent. The power of his hands doubled instantly, and the axe blade and dagger's edges pressed down an inch.

The mechanical parts of the power armor on both sides made unbearable creaking sounds.

The body of the power armor was forced back half a step, and an impatient and piercing roar came out from the gap in the armor.

Taking advantage of the gap when it retreated backwards, the old man suddenly kicked it in the knee.

Under the added force of that terrifying force, the outward-bent knee was stepped on and folded backward.

The body of the invader lost its balance and fell to the side. The old man immediately stabbed a dagger into its head and shook it violently.

However, unexpectedly, the guy with a pierced head seemed to be fine.

The old man suddenly realized.

This guy's nerve center is not in the head!

It's even possible that there is no such thing at all!

"Keep your distance!"

The voice of Ye Shi suddenly came from the communication channel.

The old man was delighted, and while the invader was still stabilizing himself, he kicked it in the chest again, kicking it to the ground and stumbling backwards.

The rotten and sturdy alloy arm grabbed the wall on one side, and the stiff five fingers scraped on the wall, making a tooth-grinding friction sound.

Just as the two power armors pulled away from each other, Ye Shi, who was lying at the end of the corridor with a "Viper" Gauss rifle, had already completed the aim and pulled the trigger.

"Bang!"

The arc flashed for a moment, and the mass bullet that broke out of the barrel was instantly accelerated to 4.5 Mach, and the sound of sonic booms echoed throughout the corridor.

The attack came from behind!

The target was the most vulnerable area of ​​the power armor.

The attacker had no time to react. The armor was already in short supply due to poor maintenance. Facing the terrifying armor-piercing ability of the electromagnetic cannon, it was shot through instantly.

Just as the attacker was staggering forward due to the kinetic energy of the mass bullet, the old man seized the opportunity and suddenly raised the hot melt cutting axe and chopped it down.

A hot red light flashed.

The hot air flow like magma instantly cut through the armor on the left shoulder of the attacker, poured in from the cracks in the armor, and instantly burned the soft tissue inside into charcoal.

The scarlet light finally faded away, and the person who entered the body fell to his knees on the ground and stopped moving.

Putting away the rifle, Ye Shi stepped forward, glanced at the man who had fallen to the ground, and sighed.

"That guy... slime mold can actually use power armor!"

Unlike the "Decay Knight", the nuclear battery of this power armor is obviously still working, but most of the electronic components inside the armor have been damaged.

"They can even drive Titans, let alone powered armor..." Lao Yi walked over and patted his shoulder and said with a smile, "Great job! Have you already done it?"

Ye Shi said with a smile.

"It's done... The mother body is not in the laboratory, there is nothing there. We took away the experimental log there under the instructions of the manager, and then he ordered us to go around this corridor to support you... What about you? ?”

Lao Ji shook his head.

"We haven't found it... We have searched most of the area, and we haven't even seen the shadow of the mother body."

Ye Shi was stunned for a moment.

"Is it at the strong wind?"

A few moments after the words fell, a pop-up window flashed on the VM of all the players.

After seeing the word "㱕㫧" in the pop-up window clearly, Ye Ju's expression suddenly changed.

"Fuck...my crow's mouth is open!"

Lao Yi didn't waste any time. He reached out and picked up the rifle on the ground and the mace he had thrown out before.

"Let's go! Help him!"

…

B6 floor.

Biological laboratory computer room.

I saw rows of chassis displayed on metal shelves, completely engulfed by dark red slime mold.

The room covering an area of ​​several hundred square meters was filled with squirming fungi as far as the eye could see. The entire computer room seemed to have turned into a sea of ​​slime molds. There was no place to stay under the steps at the front entrance!

Translucent egg-shaped flesh-red films float on the ocean, like silk cocoons, stirring restlessly.

"It" seems to have just woken up.

I am excited about the sudden revival of the "climate" and the long-awaited prey!

Looking at the scene in front of them, Guangfeng and the teammates behind him had a confused expression on their faces.

Swallowed, quit smoking and looked at the smartest guy in the team.

"How...how to recycle this?"

Guangfeng shook his head with a serious expression.

"have no idea……"

The chassis has been completely submerged in the slime-shaped ocean, and each chassis is completely stuck. Not to mention finding the hard drive hidden in a certain chassis, even how to access the rows of chassis is a problem.

Step on these slime molds...

There is always a feeling that something is going to go terribly wrong.

After thinking for a moment, Bangfeng analyzed calmly.

"Anyway, we have to clean up the slime mold here first... I'm afraid this is not an ordinary slime mold nest, maybe it's a shrunken mother nest."

Including quitting smoking, the three players standing behind Guang Feng whispered to each other.

"If I read correctly, the mission requires us to recover this guy..."

"Recycling? This has turned into a fucking swimming pool... No matter how many inhibitors are used to stun it, how do we get it out of this house?"

"I'm tired, let's continue the bombing."

"It's impossible to blow it up... We need to recover it. The experimental data is still in the hard drive of one of the chassis."

Players are in a dilemma when performing tasks.

The same goes for Chu Guang, who was sitting in the viewing room watching the game.

It's easy to get rid of the Brood Nest there. It's enough to allow players to bring weapons into the B6 floor and insert a 155 into it to detonate it manually.

If one shot is not enough, use two.

Detonating a grenade in a sealed environment, the shock wave generated by the explosion alone is enough to kill all the organisms in the room several times.

But the trouble is, the data stored in those chassis...

Because the transmission line was damaged, it was impossible to remotely control the data uploaded to the [Shelter] servo drive, and the hard drive in the servo drive could only be removed manually.

Not to mention that the powerful weapon cannot be used.

Pouring gasoline, pouring sulfuric acid, etc. may not work.

At this moment, Yin Fang suddenly felt something in his heart.

“What if we fight fire with fire?”

Chu Guang was stunned for a moment.

"Fight fire with fire?"

Yin Fang nodded excitedly, gesturing with his index finger while describing the genius idea he had just come up with.

"For example...introducing another mother body from the outside, using the characteristics of slime mold to avoid population incompatibility, and letting the mother body deal with the mother body!"

Chu Guang was stunned for a moment, and his eyes suddenly lit up.

You fellow, drive away the wolf and devour the tiger!

This idea...

Surprisingly good.

Then just when he was about to speak to express his affirmation, Heya, who was standing aside with her arms folded, sighed,

"Where are you going to get the mother body? The mother body closest to us is also in the center."

Yin Fang was stunned for a moment.

"Isn't that kind of nest that can produce gnawers a mother body?"

"That thing is called an incubator!" Heya complained. "They don't store the complete gene pool of the entire population. At most, they can produce certain products and produce signals and signal relays! They are separated from the mother or The mother nest is covered with spores, and they will shrink in a short time. If you get that thing in, it will at best serve as fertilizer for the slime mold inside. "

Said [here, I still miss the No. 7 oasis ruins] Heya, and then added another sentence.

"However, this idea is not entirely a bad idea. I heard that there is a relatively benign mutant slime mold in the Lost Valley... If we can get the mother body [there], we can not only solve the B6 layer slime mold, but also You can get a group of benign bacteria!”

This is indeed a good idea.

It would be even worse without that Titan.

Even a nuclear bomb can't kill the monster, so he'll hit it with his head!

Pretending not to see the bright eyes, Chu Guang coughed slightly and looked at Yin Fang standing aside.

"Heya is right...this method still needs to be discussed."

Heya: "Well, what I want to express is actually——"

Chu Guang interrupted her and continued.

"Anyway, before deciding what measures to take to deal with the slime mold there, we should first investigate the experimental logs to see if the results of the research there are worth the risk we take."

With that said, Chu Guang looked at Xiao Qi sitting on the desk and said.

"Xiao Qi, ask the B6 team to withdraw with the experiment log."

Placing her right fist against her chest, Xiao Qi replied playfully.

"Take it!"

…

The mission is half done.

Chu Guang gave the players a reward, but he only gave out half of it.

Insert the memory card that holds the experiment log into the holographic computer pen, and the light blue holographic image is quickly projected in the center of the reading room.

The first thing to play is a holographic image.

In the image, there is a strange man standing, talking to someone outside the camera.

He was wearing a shelter uniform, with the characters [G-13] printed on the label on his chest, which should be his serial number.

From the filming point of view, neither he nor the person talking to him was aware that they were being secretly photographed.

"...This planet has been polluted. In other words, it is hopeless."

"This is a more cruel method of extermination than neutron killing. These slime molds are designed to destroy us and are more adapted to our home than we are. They will not kill us directly, but will live in our lives. The place is growing wildly, chasing our footprints and squeezing our living space. Our descendants can only abandon the city and move to the suburbs, or stay and become their fertilizer!”

"The little inheritance we leave to our children will eventually dry up. As the level of production continues to decline, this planet will no longer have the soil to accommodate advanced production relations. Our civilization will grow in the opposite direction, declining first. [Feudal guilds, then slave guilds, and finally tribes...] We became completely beasts and were eventually replaced by more savage ones."

"Yes, our black box is still working, but what about after one thousand years? What about after ten thousand years? Once the trend is established, it will be difficult to reverse. If these problems cannot be solved now, the situation will only get worse in the future. … [At that time, let alone a professional biological laboratory, our descendants probably couldn’t even build a microscope, so how could we use it to study those things?”

"This is not an alarmist statement. In fact, tomorrow's regression has already begun before winter is over. Look at the area we monitor. Is it called 'Bloody Hand' or something...I bet. Even if they survive this winter, those people will not be smarter than monkeys!"

"The seeds of barbarism have invaded their brains. They will become the source of chaos. They will use the most primitive methods to plunder the wealth of Ming people like the ancient nomads. At least the survivors in this suburb will not be able to escape their clutches. ”

"I don't know why Professor Yi acquiesced to the guard, risked exposing the location of the shelter, and used his precious radio to help those hopeless idiots... No matter what his purpose was, the guard committed suicide. He There is no doubt that the plan failed, but I can’t put my chips on a loser!”

"But he is a manager, or do you have any better ideas?" The man standing opposite Researcher G-13 finally made a voice, and the whole image was no longer a one-man show by Researcher G-13.

Perhaps because he saw the excitement on the man's face, Researcher G-13 continued with excitement.

"Of course!"

"Slime molds are highly adaptable. We will be stronger than them. We will not be swallowed up, but them!"

The man continued to ask hesitantly.

"What are you going to do?"

"Join the mother body!"

Researcher G-13 answered with a decisive voice, and his idea unexpectedly coincided with the unfamiliar idea that Yin Fang proposed before.

"We can cultivate embryonic stem cells from mature somatic cells, and we can also reversely restore mature fruit bodies to the mother's nest!"

"We will newly compile the gene pool of the brood and let them change our shape under our influence!"

Those pupils were shining with ambition.

Researcher G-13 continued speaking in a word-for-word voice.

"They will replace slime molds on the surface!"

"And we will take control!"
