This Game Is Too Realistic

In a pure white space, twelve phantoms sat in front of a circular conference table.

They were wearing spotless white robes, and the milky white light shone on them, emitting a holy aura.

Looking closely, there were actually 13 chairs in front of the table, but one was empty.

This was the Holy Church of the Torch Church.

In short, it was the place where the pioneers in the Holy Land held meetings.

In the center of the circular conference table stood an old man in a gray robe.

His face was covered with wrinkles, his eyes were cloudy, and both his dull skin and robes were out of place in this sacred conference room.

His name was Alzu, and he had just returned from Jinhe City.

Facing the pioneers sitting at the conference table, his face was pious and his tone was solemn, as if he was praying at church, he told the story.

"The Jinhe Diocese fell, and we lost contact with the old members of Singularity City."

"They fought bravely to the end in the resistance, but our enemies did not let them go. They cut off their heads and burned them to charcoal. Their bodies filled the underground transportation network of Jinhe City..."

The voice was a little sad at the end.

After he finished speaking, the pioneers sitting around him with expressionless faces could not help but show a little commotion.

Everyone exchanged glances, whispered, and conveyed surprise and uneasiness to each other with their eyes and expressions.

"How barbaric!"

"... Not a single one was left."

The settlement that once sheltered thousands of survivors ended in this way, which really made everyone sigh.

Those residents were the "pioneers" who embraced evolution. Although they chose different paths from the pioneers, they were all brave progressives who took the first step.

But those ignorant barbarians burned it to ashes!

A stern-looking pioneer slowly clenched his fists and said solemnly.

"We will continue to move forward with their memories, and those who stand in our way will eventually pay the price!"

The other pioneers nodded slowly.

"Academy and enterprise, huh? Those scumbags..."

"And the Alliance."

"Not just them."

Looking at the pioneers with angry faces, Alzu slowly spoke and pointed his spearhead at Luo Qian, the traitorous pioneer.

"The threats we face come not only from outside, but also from ourselves. The laziness and hesitation of that guy named Luo Gan made us lose the best fighting opportunity. We lost a large number of excellent apostles and executioners and paid a heavy price."

"This is our worst failure in the past 20 years, and it is an unprecedented betrayal! If it weren't for that traitor, everything wouldn't be so bad!"

The pioneers sitting at the conference table looked at him expressionlessly, including the man sitting at the head.

Alzu didn't stop and continued to say what he had been brewing for a long time.

"The existing model has many drawbacks. The forerunners can ensure that the faith of the apostles will not waver, but no one can guarantee that the faith of the forerunners will not waver first--"

Before he finished speaking, he was interrupted by a forerunner.

"Nonsense! How could our faith waver!"

Another forerunner continued with a serious look.

"Our thoughts have been integrated with the Holy Land. Our thoughts are superior to everything. You should know how the Holy Land works."

Arzu looked at him expressionlessly.

"How do you explain Luo Qian, Your Excellency?"

The expression of the forerunner paused slightly.

The forerunner sitting next to him pondered for a moment and slowly opened his mouth to give an explanation.

"Luo Qian's situation is indeed confusing... but it's not incomprehensible. He entered the Holy Land too early, and it's hard for people to accept new things once they get old. We advised him to take care of himself, but he was unwilling to accept his aging and insisted on uploading his thoughts to the Holy Land."

"I understand his aging, but his betrayal is unacceptable."

Alzu smiled faintly and continued.

"I don't think this is a matter of age. The mode of operation of this technology is inherently unreliable. We have dispersed our thoughts to everyone, so our enemies cannot destroy it. Conversely, the foundation of this building has been torn into countless pieces. As long as they shake our foundation, they can easily shake us." He witnessed the entire process of the collapse of the kingdom of heaven with his own eyes. He knew very well how the guy who "cannot be killed" died. That guy tore himself into countless pieces and distributed them to countless people, making each person his eyes and his cells. The Alliance does not have the ability to kill him who is not even on the ground, but it has the ability to influence "each of him". When every cell in his body began to shake, the building, which seemed to be extremely exquisite, collapsed completely.

In the end, let alone deceiving others,

even the guy himself began to doubt the correctness of the kingdom of heaven.

This is the most fatal thing!

The sanctuary can affect every believer, but believers will in turn affect the sanctuary. After all, the sanctuary that does not exist on the earth was originally constructed by them.

It is precisely because of this that Alzu is more and more convinced of his point of view-the sanctuary is an unreliable existence.

The heaven imagined by people must be completed by people, and we should not pin our hopes on the sanctuary that does not exist on the earth, or on people in heaven.

The pioneer model currently adopted by the church has serious loopholes. If this loophole is not plugged, they will suffer another failure.

"How can they shake our foundation, just those barbarians?" A forerunner retorted disdainfully.

Arzu looked at him and said expressionlessly.

"They exploit the ignorance and shortsightedness of the general public, and their ignorance of both the great benefits and the sources of suffering."

The forerunner stared at him intently, but could not refute.

Because the Forerunner model itself negates the wisdom of mortals, it is precisely because they recognize the unreliability of humans that they must completely eradicate all attributes of humans as gods.

Arzu does not object to the first half of the sentence, but only has objections to the second half.

"If we want to defeat them in the war on earth, we must turn the abstract forerunners into concrete people existing on the earth."

He knew very well that his views were rebellious.

The whole church was in an uproar as expected.

The forerunners sitting at the conference table refuted him without hesitation.

"Then what's the difference between us and the apostles?"

"We embarked on this path in order to abandon human desires and all selfishness. You suggest that we change back?"

"You are creating weaknesses for us! What is your intention?"

Facing those suspicious and sullen looks, Arzu continued to speak calmly.

"I didn't say that, I just suggested that we can set up another holy church and promote a group of forerunners who can obtain sufficient permissions without giving up their bodies to embrace the holy realm, and let them manage all earthly things in the diocese. In this way, even if the Alliance By bewitching our believers and even destroying our sanctuary with ideological viruses, the failure of Jinhe City will not happen again.”

As soon as he finished speaking, he was refuted by a forerunner.

"Nonsense! How do you ensure the purity of the Second Temple?"

Arzu looked at him and continued.

"The Second Temple does not have to be as pure as the First Temple. It only needs to be able to lead the believers on earth to defeat our opponents."

At this moment, the man sitting at the conference table suddenly spoke.

"Let me say a few words."

When he spoke, the whole church fell silent.

His name is Wang Yi.

He is the Son chosen by the Torch.

It is also the unanimous choice of everyone in the market.

His faith was the purest and the strongest of all.

"... This problem does not exist in Haiya Province. The kingdom of heaven has reached the fourth stage and is irreversible. Our spiritual intervention device can ensure the unity of believers. The existence of the second church is redundant. "

Arzu said nothing.

Because this sentence really cannot be refuted.

Unless their enemies can destroy all the psychic interference devices on the entire land in an instant, crack their brainwashing bands and replace them with their own, it is theoretically impossible to make those brainwashed believers doubt the kingdom of heaven through simple methods. The correct one.

When the original consciousness is erased, the sanctuary is their only consciousness, and the evolution of higher life forms is their only ideal.

The situation is different in those barbaric lands that have been incorporated into dioceses, or in those dioceses that are still missionary.

The utopia they believe in must compete with the dirt on the ground, but those ignorant guys value short-term interests more.

So they have to be cleverly disguised.

Just like nago.

Before releasing the spores, it first uses cyclamate to lure the prey, paralyze the prey, and finally make it immersed in it and unable to extricate itself, which is the nourishment of the kingdom of heaven.

"For the dioceses in Haiyia Province, we need to strengthen communication among the forerunners and ensure that our faith is unwavering, so as to prevent similar situations from happening again and there is no need to build a second church. But -"

After a pause, the Holy Son continued to speak, saying what Arzu had expected.

"...For the unexplored barbaric lands and the developing parishes, the existence of the Second Holy Church is necessary."

"Even if we don't consider that the self-destructive wastelanders are not suitable for our advanced concepts, we must still consider the limits of black box storage."

"The bionic wafer black box has been produced for us for more than 20 years. After all, it is an emergency production equipment, not a universal wish machine."

Hearing these words, everyone sitting at the table felt anxious and uneasy in their eyes, and their eyes became wandering.

This is indeed an issue that cannot be ignored.

Their biotechnology is very strong, but the bionic crystals produced in the black box are irreplaceable. They are the foundation of the Sanctuary.

People will always continue to grow old.

The wafers produced in the black box will one day be used up. Before completing the final plan, their time is actually not unlimited.

Although he knew that no one wanted to hear it, the Holy Son finally said those words.

"It's reaching its limit."

…

Anything that knows what it is but doesn't know why it is is unsustainable.

Black boxes are probably the most typical example.

The Guards Corps found a batch of expired black boxes in the warehouse at the former site of Singularity City.

These black boxes will be used to produce some medicines, high-yield crop seeds, and key components of some equipment.

Before they were scrapped, the residents of Singularity City squeezed out the last bit of their value before forgetting them in the warehouse.

These failed black boxes have been sent to Shelter 404, and are currently being studied by Yin Fang, the leader of the scientific expedition team.

Iron Heart Clinic.

After learning about the progress of Singularity City's reconstruction work from Han Shuang, Chu Guang visited the little girl named Yinyin again.

Perhaps out of guilt for Singularity City, or perhaps out of sympathy for her, the council specifically approved the company to bear the cost of her treatment, and promised to replace her with a bionic one that can move freely. Learn the body.

She can customize her appearance or choose to look exactly the same as before.

After telling Yinyin the news, Chu Guang paused for a moment and then asked her about her plans to come.

"Our strategic goal in the Jinhe City area has been achieved. The Torch has been cleared from this land. There will no longer be mutants and Naguo on this land. Next, the focus of work in this area will shift. To the reconstruction of Singularity City.”

Sitting in the corner of the pure white room, Yin Yin looked up at him blankly.

"Singularity City is..."

"The settlement that once stood on this land," Chu Guangyan said concisely and comprehensively, "Although it contains some interesting past, forgetting the history is tantamount to betrayal, and we intend to keep this name."

Yinyin nodded as if understanding.

Chu Guang pretended that she understood and continued to talk.

"The Iron Heart will return to the River Valley Province soon. You can choose to stay, or you can choose to go back with us."

Yinyin was silent for a while and asked.

"Do I still have a home here?"

Chu Guang said.

"The residents of Pinecone Farm want you to go back. Except for the annex and the basement, the manor still belongs to you."

A troubled expression appeared on Yinyin's face, and she finally asked you for help.

"Can you give me some advice?"

"It's a pity that I can't give you any advice. I don't know you well. Maybe you should discuss it with your relatives... friends." Chu Guang suddenly changed her mind when she thought that her parents had passed away.

At this time, he thought of Hanshuang's request again, so he continued to talk.

"Of course, the representative from the company wants you to stay and help appease the emotions of the survivors... You should have seen that person before, his name is Hanshuang."

Yinyin looked at him a little at a loss.

"But, I've already changed like this... I'm afraid I can't be of much help."

Chu Guang shook his head.

"You don't have to do anything, you just need to be there."

Yinyin looked at him blankly.

"It's okay to be there..."

Chu Guang thought for a while and patiently spoke in a way that she could understand.

"Although many people have grown older, they are not really mature. Compared to people with full behavioral capabilities, they are more like children without behavioral capabilities. They need someone to make decisions for them and help them. By taking on the risks of their own responsibilities and choices, they can enjoy a period of stability.”

Is it good to eat fruit? No matter what, the master said it was a good thing, just plant it and that's it. Mutants eat people without spitting out bones? What a joke, you’re not afraid of a well-dressed man, but you’re afraid of a hammer? They just eat the wasteland guests.

The problems in Singularity City are completely different from those in Boulder City. This is not the fault of any one person, but is caused by many factors, just like this wasteland.

Perhaps because she felt that she had too much responsibility on her shoulders, Yinyin's expression was still a little uneasy.

"But I don't have the ability..."

Chu Guang said comfortingly.

"You don't need to be there. You just need to stay where they can see it. The rest can be given to Hanshuang. It has been observing us for a long time. I believe it has some abilities that I don't know about."

"...I understand." Yinyin thought for a long time, nodded, looked at him and said seriously, "I...plan to stay!"

Seeing the serious expression on the child's face, Chu Guang was slightly surprised.

"Have you thought about it?"

"Well, I have thought about it. It was my father who made them become like that, right? Whether it is the lamb or everyone in the manor... If it is really like what you said, I will bear the responsibility before they are willing to go out. The responsibility is to watch over them for a while.”

Yinyin smiled a little lonely.

"Besides... my time has stopped anyway. This is the only thing I can do that still has some meaning."

"...I will tell Hanshuang your decision, and it should be happy with your choice." Chu Guang looked at her, nodded silently, turned around and left the pure white space.

…

After leaving the infirmary and walking into the corridor, Chu Guang was about to return to the captain's room when Xiao Qi's sweet voice suddenly came from his ears.

"Master, Yin Fang has news for you."

The research on those black boxes should have yielded results.

With this in mind, Chu Guang stopped beside the porthole in the corridor.

"Put me through."

"okay!"

As soon as Xiao Qi finished speaking, a light blue holographic window appeared in front of him.

Looking at Chu Guang who was safe and sound, Yin Fang said with joy.

"The black boxes you provided me are interesting! Although they are completely broken, through those old antiques, I dug out some unrecorded history about Singularity City!"

"In the early days of the Wasteland Era, they should have used 'combined nutrients' to solve their food needs. It was probably the predecessor of nutritional creams. Perhaps it was because the local climate recovery conditions were faster that the combined technology of nutritional creams was not available. Instead of being carried forward locally, it was inherited by Boulder City, 800 kilometers away.”

"Later, Singularity City replaced the algae petri dishes with higher nutrient production efficiency and smaller energy requirements, and then insects... These foods all have one characteristic, and they are not so easy for humans to accept. Especially algae and insects, although the yield is higher than glucose and protein synthesis, the products often need to be transformed and processed twice before they can be served to people's tables. "

"I think this may be their motivation for seeking mutant technology, at least one of the motivations. A stomach that can consume anything will indeed help improve the probability of survival in the wasteland, but it is a pity that the consequences of this They were overwhelmed by other problems."

He was more interested in the history of Singularity City than the loot harvested by the Heart of Steel, although he did not dig out the coffee machine that interested him most this time.

Chuguang was interested in another thing.

“Can those black boxes be repaired?”

The excited expression faded instantly, and Yin Fang shook his head in embarrassment.

"It's almost impossible... The difficulty in making a black box is not actually technical, it's industrial conditions. It's not something that can be repaired with a wrench and a screwdriver. It only belongs to the era two hundred years ago."

Chu Guang nodded.

He had expected this, but he was not disappointed.

"Then just send it to the museum."

"Um……"

Perhaps because he didn't show up at all, Yin Fang felt a little guilty, so he added another sentence later.

"However, although the black box cannot be repaired, the nutrient synthesis technology and algae cultivation technology used in Singularity City are still a bit interesting. I will try to collect the ones that can be collected... If you plan to use it in the future If we build a space station in the sky, these technologies will definitely be available.”

I don’t know how long it will take for that kind of thing to happen.

Chu Guang said with a smile.

"Please."

Yin Fang smiled and scratched the back of his head.

"You're welcome... By the way, what's the noise over there? Why is it so noisy?"

Chu Guang glanced in the direction of the infirmary and saw a few familiar faces, so he said casually.

"Your junior is more noisy."

Yin Fang was stunned for a moment and did not react.

"My junior?"

Chu Guang continued.

"The D-class researcher sent by the academy to help us is a little girl."

Previously, Ye Shi was paralyzed from a high position in order to hold the falling Viper transport aircraft. His good brothers planned to help him unplug the power supply of the ICU, but the girl was guarding him and did not find a chance to make a move.

Later, the girl applied to use the operating table in the infirmary and the equipment collected by the research institute, and also got some artificial prosthetics from the scientific research ship. It seemed that she planned to bring the boy Ye Shi to breastfeed her.

Because he thought it was interesting, Chu Guang readily agreed.

Now it seems that the operation is completed?

Yin Fang raised his eyebrows after hearing this.

"Wait a minute, why am I the senior? I'm also D-class, I'm not old!"

Chu Guang laughed when he heard this, and happened to see another pop-up window pop up in the lower right corner of the holographic screen, so he said with a smile.

"The call came, let's talk to you later."

"Jian Jian, you should be busy."

Yin Fangyuan still wanted to argue about this issue, but he was worried that it would delay the guy's business, so he ended the communication.

As Chu Guang pressed the button again, a head of fiery red hair appeared on the other side of the holographic image.

Those heroic eyebrows were moving up and down slightly uneasily. Seeing the video window that was suddenly connected, Xia Yan hurriedly stopped playing with her bangs, coughed and said.

"Are you... busy over there?"

Looking at Xia Yan who looked nervous, Chu Guang couldn't help but smile.

"I just finished my work, what can I do?"

This guy would occasionally call him, and his usual behavior was normal, but this time he was nervous for some reason.

Hearing the voice that he was not busy, Xia Yan breathed a sigh of relief, cleared his throat and said.

"...Didn't you say last time that it would be great if I could help you build a powered armor? I don't remember the exact words, but that's what I meant anyway! You must have said it! I just made it in my spare time. Anyway... I tried to make one."

When Chu Guang heard this sentence, he was stunned for a moment.

Damn it?

real or fake? !

Seeing Chu Guang's stunned expression, Xia Yan thought he didn't believe it and quickly explained.

"Well, it's not a particularly mysterious thing. The one with the highest technological content is the small cold fusion reactor... Can't the black box in Vault 79 produce that thing? I'll just carry it with the 'Hippo-2' The reactor is used as the power core, and a similar Z-shaped armor is designed based on the power system and armor layout of the People's Federation Army's T-10 Champion Power Armor... Experts from Camp 101 also helped. "

"No, but after all, it was made in my spare time. The performance in all aspects is definitely not as good as the equipment before the war. It's not a big problem to make do with it. You can see if you can do it when you have time. Don't lose it. It doesn’t matter if I’m in the warehouse, I didn’t spend much time anyway—”

Chu Guang, who was stunned, immediately interrupted her and said happily.

"Great! Thank you! This is the best news I heard today!"

Startled by his sudden reaction, Xia Yan was stunned for a moment and whispered.

"real or fake?"

Chu Guang nodded with a happy smile on his face.

"Do I need to lie to you? But I am indeed a little surprised. I didn't expect you to have such a thing!"

Feeling a little embarrassed by the praise, Xia Yan had a shy smile on his face and rubbed the back of his head with his right hand holding the welding gun.

"...What are you talking about? I have a big job. Don't forget, I repaired all my equipment myself."

Chu Guang said with a smile.

"I know, and I helped us repair a lot. There are still a bunch of bullets you rubbed in your hands in the warehouse of the shelter."

"Hehe." Xia Yan's expression became even more embarrassed, her smile became more and more exaggerated, and gradually lost its shape.

"I kept it because I couldn't fight it out."

Seeing this guy's complacent look, Chu Guang couldn't help teasing her, but as a result, her reaction was greater than he expected.

"!! It can't be fired?! How can it not be fired! Where are those bullets?"

"Just kidding, don't get excited." Looking at Xia Yan, who was blushing anxiously, Chu Guang coughed lightly, put away his smile and said solemnly, "On behalf of Shelter 404, I would like to thank you for your research results! I will arrange manpower to assist you in testing immediately.”

"...Don't be like this, it makes me so nervous. Besides, this is an experimental machine and has not been tested on the battlefield." Xia Yan muttered quietly, rubbing the welding gun in his hand with his index finger, and suddenly felt a little nervous. I regret telling him in such a hurry.

How did you say that?

The greater the expectations, the greater the disappointment.

Although she learned some knowledge about the Prosperity Era in Vault 101, she had not yet entered school yet.

Even if the virtual reality learning device helps her extend the hours of actual learning, and even if she has some experience in machinery, it still can't change the fact that she is still half-assed.

But Chu Guang didn't care.

A half-full bottle of water is still water. There are so many random equipments from the Alliance, and players don’t care about one more piece of equipment.

Even if it is not as good as the "Champion" and "Dragoon", it is still a nuclear-powered individual armor, and it is also excellent as a mobile power bank.

"The experimental machine is also very good! Breaking through from 0 to 1 is more difficult than from 1 to 10. I just happened to have a batch of nuclear fuel here, and I can verify your design immediately. Just change the inappropriate places. Yes, we can wait!”

Looking at the surprised Xia Yan, Chu Guang smiled and continued.

"Compared to the power armor incarnation, I'm actually more surprised by your transformation."

Xia Yan asked awkwardly.

"Am I getting bigger?"

Chu Guang sighed with emotion.

"That Jian'an is too big! In the past, I had to coax you to do even a little bit of work."

Perhaps remembering what happened in the past, Xia Yan's face suddenly turned red, and she bared her teeth quickly and unconvincedly.

"You call that coaxing? No, if I don't work, throw me out... Do you hear what people say?"

When Chu Guang heard this, he chuckled and didn't care at all.

"Both and each other, aren't you thinking over there that when I carried you back to the shelter, I planned to have sex with you?"

"Ahhhh!!!"

Xia Yan's face instantly turned into a lantern, his ears seemed to be spewing out hot air, and he let out a strange scream and reached out to turn off the holographic screen.

When she thought about the embarrassing incident when they first met, embarrassment spread all over her body. She held her head in her hands, her fingers infiltrated into her hair, wishing she could find a moment to get in on the table filled with tools, parts and drawings, and go over there once.

"This guy..."

How long ago that was!

Is it interesting to be so entangled? !

But...

If he is really that kind of person.

The fingers that were stuck in the hair bent unconsciously, and the fiery red color did not change at all, but the embarrassment that crawled all over the body changed into an uncomfortable tingling.

feel……

A little weird.

"Work, work..."

Xia Yan, who realized something was wrong, hurriedly shook his head and decided to stop thinking about that weird thought.

At the same time, looking at the holographic screen that turned off with a snap, Chu Guangzheng scratched his cheek with his index finger with a subtle expression.

"Isn't it a little bad to joke like this?"

He reflected for a moment and realized that it was indeed not a good idea to settle old scores.

Moreover, that guy had just lost a leg, and was unloaded and carried away by a group of strangers from the wasteland. It was reasonable to be afraid.

Xiao Qi's voice came from the side.

"Xiao Qi feels that the key to the problem may not be a joke..."

Not completely unaware of this, Chu Guang sighed.

"That's right."

Just when he was about to put this matter aside, a shrill howl came from the direction of the infirmary.

"Gaia!!!"

Gaia?

Chu Guang was slightly stunned. He didn't understand what the crying brother was calling. He only understood that it was the player's call.

But soon, the next voice from the other side immediately answered the confusion in his heart.

"You guy... you are so ungrateful! I spent so much effort to save you! Is this how you thank me???"
