I, the undead, save the world with the dolls

[Come here two months ago, a human, another...] M4 was speechless.

"It's a Raider. M4, you may not have encountered it, but our Rebellious Squad encountered a similar unit when we were clearing the Mechanic Master base. These Raiders can fire powerful lasers from their heads, and some can even turn invisible. They're quite good combat units," AK12 added.

"I can't find any relevant information. AK12, didn't you synchronize these?" M4 asked doubtfully.

"No, we don't have those records, but we can base our conclusions on the appearance, leg structure, and component length, and then compare the traces. This is all based on experience; we're used to doing this." AK12 blinked.

"Okay, but the time difference between these two sets of footprints isn't that big... And the person who did it maintained a walking pace the entire time. There's no sign of them speeding up, running, or falling. So it's a human who came down with the raiders? Is this person one of the gunman's men?" M4's thoughts wandered for a moment before he narrowed his eyes.

The humans teamed up with the raiders, feeling like prey and predator teaming up. Only the desperate or the crazy, or the two of them, would dare to do that.

But there are exceptions. The Rust Demon Gang and the Gunmen have captured and dismantled many robots. In the process of growing and developing, they learned how to rewrite the friend-or-foe identification system.

If it were these two gangs, it would be normal for them to carry raiders.

"Not surprising. Given the awful weather and natural conditions outside, I doubt how long anyone could survive here. But at least some of the luckiest individuals and top-tier scouts managed to infiltrate." AK12 sighed casually.

"Hmm... putting everything else aside, are we going to fight a Raider in this environment? I have a feeling its lasers could detonate the nuclear bombs here... and if it detonates one, we'll all be doomed," M4 said worriedly. "Why don't we just find the Raider and have Yang go stealthily over there and teleport the robot back to base?"

"While I feel a little sad about the recycling team's plight, I'm honestly convinced they've seen a lot of shit. There's no such thing as the weirdest, only the weirder." AK12 offered another sarcastic comment.

"You guys just do your job well. Also, just let me know when you need me to take action. I'm not the kind of person who doesn't like to be active. If it can help in the battle, I won't refuse." Sun Yang said firmly.

[That Yang...] M4 was about to say something when he was interrupted by AK12.

[M4, we're still in the mission phase. Wake up!] AK12 said, looking disappointed.

Fortunately, the journey from now on was somewhat easier. The humanoids, operating the drone, reached the bottom floor with almost no hindrance.

298 bottom floor

“Pah pah pah…Pah pah pah…”

Several light gunshots rang out in the dim lower floor, and the metal bullets with extremely strong penetrating power pierced through several bodies and hit the wall behind.

A group of frenzied zombies rushed out from a nearby corridor and fell to the ground. There was a small hole on their heads, from which fluorescent green liquid was slowly flowing.

"The strength of these creatures doesn't match the environment outside." 16 walked over and turned the ghoul over. "Hmm, the accumulated radiation level has exceeded the limit, but can radiation alone turn someone into this state?"

"I heard that the FEV super virus that's spread in the air is involved in the transformation of the human body, causing some people who received excessive radiation to become ghouls. Perhaps the virus is also involved in the process of transformation into ghouls."

Sun Yang released another scientific research drone on the spot, but this one was mainly used to analyze the air environment.

The tactical figures took a short break, checking each other's equipment and replacing the materials for printing ammunition.

Sun Yang was in charge of the relatively logistical work in the back. He hurriedly checked the equipment of the dogs, AR15 and M4 who came over, and then praised them in turn.

"Gouzi, you did a good job! 15 did a great job!" Sun Yang touched their chins, faces, and heads in turn. Although they were only touched through helmets, the humanoids still benefited a lot.

"......." RO seemed to want to say something but hesitated. She finally shrugged and said nothing more.

"Go ahead if you want. The commander won't mind." Brother 16 said jokingly.

"No, I'll forget it. I'm not used to that kind of atmosphere. I feel like if I join in, I'll lose something important." RO turned his head away and silently checked the weapon in his hand.

After coaxing the humanoids into submission, Sun Yang turned to the research drone. It had collected numerous air samples. He grabbed the sealed plastic bottles and transported them back to the relevant lab in the Oasis.

Although Oasis does not have specialized air research experts, there are still some humanoids who are related to viruses and air environment. Sun Yang, with the mentality of giving it his all, asked these humanoids to help analyze the situation.

After all, the scientific research category is quite diverse and complex. Oasis is lacking in many areas. A lot of basic science and materials science rely on plagiarism. It takes a long time to complete the technology tree. If you want to work overtime to improve technology, you can only rely on the scientists in the Great Mountains.

If only those thought entities were loyal and reliable enough. Whenever Sun Yang thought of the cruel things those guys had done, he didn't dare to trust them.

So until now, Sun Yang can only give up some technology trees that he has no idea about, and slowly study them according to the humanoids he currently has at home.

If the existing number of scientific researchers was sufficient to make climbing technology not too troublesome, Sun Yang would not have to steal technology all over the world and then let the humanoids work hard to study the information.

However, Sun Yang still likes the process of running around the world to collect information.

"Hmm... Professor, do you call this the FEV virus? We've indeed detected very low concentrations of the virus in the wild before, and through testing, we've found that it appears to survive for over a year. However, the professor also knows that only a certain concentration can affect the human body." Panacea explained with a headache.

Panacea, the pharmacist at the Oasis base, gained a fairly detailed understanding of the local environment after receiving information from the radiation-infected medical research humanoid Curie. Panacea personally expressed her welcome to Curie's joining the Oasis.

"But this virus...is supposed to cause mutations, or forced evolution? I've read in some of the records still preserved in the Great Mountains that those green-skinned and blue-skinned super mutants were actually created by the FEV virus. While I don't have much clinical data, depending on the concentration and method of use, this virus may have different effects on an organism's DNA."

Next to the window was a cautiously speaking DNA researcher named Hollis. She had previously collected a number of FEV virus samples, but due to a lack of live specimens for observation, her progress had been slow.

It was not until Sun Yang returned to the radiation world that she obtained the living samples she needed - such as the various strange creatures killed by the humanoid team on the road.

There are only dead ones, no living ones yet. Sun Yang promised to find more relevant information and local living samples to provide to He Lisi for analysis and research.

"However, based on my current research, I believe this virus has further potential. However, starting from scratch would be too difficult," Hollis said with some embarrassment.

Despite the assistance of experimental equipment and intelligent agents, due to the lack of data and time accumulation in research, progress can only be achieved in years.

While the Kenshi world possessed a wealth of living organisms, Hollis observed them through various injection methods and discovered that the FEV virus had little effect on Kenshi's creatures. It couldn't alter their DNA, nor did it force evolution. Its symptoms were simply like those of the common flu.

It’s hard to say what special changes the creatures in the KENSHI world have undergone, but Sun Yang doesn’t dare to let the humanoids in the main base delve into the secrets of that continent.

Regarding the main base, Sun Yang's attitude has always been to hide as much as possible, keep a low profile, don't do anything drastic, and don't make any random moves. After all, if he can't get there himself, he can't provide support.

At this point, Sun Yang could only transport samples back whenever he had time. As for whether he could come up with some amazing discoveries... well, that was like drawing cards, a bottomless pit with no guaranteed results. When he would get results, it all depended on luck and a flash of inspiration.

Currently, dozens of agents were diligently analyzing the air alongside Panacea and Hollis at the Oasis base. Air drawn from different environments contained varying concentrations of FEV.

Simply put, the concentration of FEV in the wasteland is extremely low and has little effect on the human body. However, the virus will eventually be stored in the human body, and the trace amount of virus in these people's bodies may damage the DNA of human offspring.

If there are some scientific research organizations that want to carry out scientific DNA research, it will be difficult for them to find usable materials.

However, in some abandoned laboratories and areas with lower sea levels, the concentration of FEV increases. Organisms found in these environments generally possess stronger combat and survival abilities, and also possess higher levels of FEV in their bodies.

It seems the super mutants in the Boston area were captured by the academy for experiments on wastelanders and then teleported out. They were too lazy to deal with the super mutants and just dumped them out there.

Sun Yang suddenly remembered this detail.

Come to think of it, this organization is truly despicable. They genuinely don't even consider the wastelanders human, but merely potential experimental material. On the other hand, they should have very detailed FEV experimental data... yet another reason to attack the academy. Hmm... using nuclear bombs to demolish the surface seems too much trouble to waste here.

Sun Yang looked at the nuclear warheads around him and finally gave up the idea.

Not far from Sun Yang, the dolls were chattering as they sorted their equipment, preparing for the upcoming battle. AK12 pointed at the wall and turned around.

"No, no, this won't do," AK12 said, looking at the dozens of large craters on the wall behind the ghoul. "This will penetrate the nuclear warheads too. We absolutely cannot overestimate the safety of those warheads. It's been two hundred years, okay? We were fighting too many armored units before, and we had too much ammunition. I'm switching to hollow-point rounds."

AK12 said as he replaced the ammunition. AK15 put away her gun and pulled out a Saturn alloy scimitar specially made for her from behind her, and also took out a plasma pistol from her side.

"I'll be the striker," AK15 said impatiently.

"Don't rush in so aggressively later. There's going to be at least one attacker inside. AK-15, you don't have a dedicated electronic warfare module after all." AN94 offered some advice, but it didn't seem to be working.

[RO, 15, you guys switch to hollow-point ammunition too. You'll be leading the charge in the passage later.] M4 commanded expertly, and several people sorted through their ammunition, indicating no problem.

"No, no, no, you've got the wrong Captain M4. Once we get into the tunnel, we can't cooperate with you, especially with this gorilla. We'll just have to disobey and lead the charge. 94 and I have both installed electronic warfare modules," AK12 said.

[That's fine, Commander. What do you think?] M4 turned to look at Sun Yang, who was listening to the engineering doll's report.

"I can hear you. Let's do this. Go to other passages and split into two teams. Just make sure there is nothing else that can move under this base." Sun Yang waved his hand, then took a deep breath and with great difficulty transported out the engineering equipment that had been disassembled into parts.

[Okay, let's go.] M4 entered from another pipe with her own group of humanoids.

[Saw M4 again a few hours later.] AK12 followed behind the enthusiastic AK15.

"Oh! By the way! One more thing," Sun Yang cut directly into the conversation between the two teams, "If you meet someone from the Atomic Cult, if he's easy to talk to, tell him that your commander is planning to rain nuclear bombs all over the earth. That way, he'll be willing to let you go."

[Understood, Yang.] [Copy that, Commander.] After each team responded, they continued along the passage.

Although the cleanup was not yet complete, Sun Yang still made a concerted effort to transfer the engineering figures and their equipment here.

These engineered humanoids were basically intelligent entities brought over from the original Oasis, except that they now had base bodies.

Sun Yang did not pay much attention to the upgrade and development of these intelligent bodies. He only learned from Pascal's research report that the mental level of some of them was improved after observation by Pascal compared with the mental technology of modern humanoids.

Sun Yang couldn't understand things that were too complicated. He just knew that after such a long period of learning and training, some intelligent agents were now able to handle most of the work.

In fact, most of the auxiliary scientific research work and base operation and maintenance are handled by these basic intelligent entities.

As soon as the intelligent agents arrived at the warehouse, they quickly spoke out very robotic words such as "Mental self-examination completed." "Air detection, danger." "Motion joint detection completed." "Task log updated."

"Professor. The body is in good condition and can be activated at any time." More than a dozen intelligent bodies with male and female appearances saluted Sun Yang after completing their self-inspection.

"Let's get started right away. First, take away everything that can be transferred directly and loaded. It will take some time for the AR team and the rebellious team. After the automation program is lifted, there is still a lot of work to be done." Sun Yang gave the order.

The intelligent bodies nodded in unison, and then quickly assembled the engineering parts transferred by Sun Yang.

Although these intelligent entities have human appearance, their minds have not developed gender concepts, and changing to a square-headed shell will not affect their efficiency.

It's just that the Oasis Base has become accustomed to this randomly generated appearance, and the few creatures living in the Oasis still care about these things. Rukatiye and Onefix would probably find it difficult to adapt to life in a base full of square-headed creatures.

Those parts were assembled into transportation equipment and cutting equipment at a rapid speed.

Sending these agents here doesn't cost a lot of mana. The agents' mental models aren't that complex... If I had to explain why, it's probably that the more memory and complexity a mind takes up, the harder it is to summon.

Although the amount of mana consumed by different humanoids varies, the difference is generally not that big. And these intelligent bodies do not have such rich simulation and mental growth, so Sun Yang can shake them over in batches more easily.

He took a breath and teleported another batch of intelligent entities and their accompanying equipment. Within a few minutes, the underground space of the entire Iron Guard base became bustling with activity.

The intelligent bodies, wearing industrial power armor, cooperated to move the rows of stored nuclear warheads towards the center.

These nuclear warheads, roughly the size of a human, are officially called Type 28s... and are used by the Brotherhood of Steel's ace, Liberty Prime. They can be thrown directly like large grenades.

According to Sun Yang's memory, there was basically nothing threatening down there. At most, there was a bunch of chaotic ghouls. If there was anything, it should be only one follower of the Atomic Cult here, right?

Anyway, I've already told the tactical dolls how to treat him. Now all I have to do is wait for them to process the automated program on the terminal.

Now, just wait... Sun Yang pressed his head, which had been over-casting spells. He paced back and forth in the entire venue, waiting for the intelligent bodies to dismantle all the nuclear warheads that could be dismantled.

Just as the intelligent body was working hard, fierce gunfire and the roars of ghouls were heard from deep in the pipes and corridors.

The tactical humanoids had already engaged the frenzied ghouls. The intelligent entities working around them hesitated for a moment, but continued their mission under Sun Yang's command.

Sun Yang could only silently hope that nothing unexpected would happen.

299 Interrogation

The rebellious team passed through a deep passage. As they advanced, a large number of feral ghouls continuously emerged from the depths. Their numbers were so numerous that one couldn't help but wonder how many people had been hiding in this place before the war, allowing the feral ghouls to appear in such large numbers.

The radiation level in the corridor is kept low, and the humanoids' radiation alarm system is feeding back data, giving the humanoids an intuitive understanding.

AK15 used his pistol and machete to casually cut through the ghouls. The two teammates behind him switched to hollow-point ammunition and pulled the trigger at the swarming ghouls.

Dozens of ghoul heads, either exploded or severed, fell to the ground. AK15's eyes scanned the corridor, and her Snow Wolf Eye system quickly detected an unfamiliar signal.

[That one?] AK12 opened his eyes and said in a stiff tone.

[You negotiate.] AK15 wiped the liquid off the machete and started dancing again.

[Leave it to me. 94, keep an eye on it.] AK12 agreed.

[Roger that.] AN94 reloaded with new ammunition.

AK15 didn't say anything more. She ran towards the source of the signal. After turning a few corners, she saw a tightly closed door.

Just as AK15 was about to go over and knock on the door, her wolf eyes keenly noticed that the temperature behind the door was rising rapidly, which was very wrong.

Without any hesitation, she used all her strength to throw the scimitar towards the gate.

The scimitar, hurled at full force by the AK15, instantly pierced the gate. The Saturn alloy scimitar, still wielding its remaining force, slashed through the murky air and pierced the head of the attacker charging behind it.

The modified Raider shuddered, its body rapidly heating up—

AK15 hadn't thought she could defeat the enemy with just a scimitar. She threw the scimitar and rammed the door with all her might. Using the propulsion system of her power suit and her own sonic drive, she smashed the door open and rushed in front of the raider.

AK15 pierced the attacker's nuclear battery with a simple, brutal punch, pulling out the uncontrolled, still overcharging nuclear battery. It took her less than half a second to come up with a solution. She curled up on the spot, holding the dangerous battery in her arms.

"Boom!" A dull sound echoed, and AK15's body shook. Seconds later, AK15 slowly stood up, her power suit shattered, revealing her charred body. But even after being blown up at point-blank range by an overloaded nuclear engine, AK15 remained combat-ready.

After the thing exploded, a human walked out from the depths of the room. He was stunned by the scene before him, and then asked loudly.

"You, who the hell are you?! Are you sent by the academy?!" A young human wearing only tattered cloth shouted.

His skin had already ulcerated from the radiation, but considering the harsh environment here, it was incredible that his skin was only slightly ulcerated. Perhaps the people in this place really had some ability to resist the effects of radiation.

"As soon as we came in, the Raider launched an attack~" AK12 walked out from behind.

The human finally realized something was wrong, but it was too late. No matter how fast he moved, he couldn't move as fast as the humanoid bullet.

He took aim with the AK12 and immediately pulled the trigger.

She fired several shots at the panicked human's hands and feet, knocking him to the ground. The Snow Wolf's eyes scanned the area and found the pistol and grenades hidden on him.

AK12 quickly ran over and took away the pistol and grenade hidden in the human's clothes.

The human with his shattered limbs cried out in pain, but AK12 gave him a few gentle kicks to keep him quiet.
