I, the undead, save the world with the dolls

At least, the middle and lower classes of NCR are still happy to be human beings, and are still working hard to fight. At least the people of NCR are willing to protect those within their jurisdiction.

From this perspective, NCR is the most rescuable power in this area. Furthermore, according to information obtained by 404, it seems that the number of bottle caps collected by NCR does not match the number of bottle caps that should have been spent. It seems that many people are taking advantage of this.

Well, considering that NCR only has a population of around 700,000, there are probably less than a thousand people who can abuse people this badly, and with the stakeholders included, there are around 2,000. Sun Yang felt that he could do it, so he decided to give it a try.

Then we'll see if we can force House to sit down and do something practical. Stop opening that damn casino and gambling on you. Instead, he should use his pre-war abilities to recruit a group of people to build infrastructure.

Finally, there are the followers of Apocalypse. These people are the most important. In terms of technology and education, if these people are trained to become teachers, the prospects of NCR will be very promising. At least the knowledge of repairing water pumps and agricultural supporting facilities can be compiled into teaching materials, and the literacy rate can be raised.

Kill off those two-headed bull farmers who manipulated the elections, and then kill the high-ranking officials who sit in important positions and always do stupid things. Then distribute land to everyone...ah, the wastelanders don't seem to know what land distribution is. This is too big a move for NCR, it will be a drag on their bottom.

Forget it. There are so many capable people at the bottom of NCR. At most, we can teach those knowledgeable people and let them listen more to the opinions of their subordinates.

As for the conservative counterattack, leave that to me. I guarantee that the conservative pie chart will physically disappear.

During this period, the temper of Postman No. 6 has been relatively good. If Ariana's report is correct, Postman No. 6 likes to meddle in other people's affairs and take on tasks. If she is expressed in stereotypes, she is a chaotic and kind character who only abides by the rules she agrees with most of the time.

I can meet her later. Hopefully, we can have a good conversation. I really need people like her. At least she's more suitable for handling trivial matters than a humanoid.

After Sun Yang made up his mind, he felt much better. If possible, he wanted the people of this land to live in peace and stability. At least, they wouldn't die for nonsense.

There are many things to do, so Sun Yang should focus on protecting the followers of Apocalypse first. These members are natural scientists and teachers. There is no force more noble than the followers of Apocalypse who possess comprehensive technology and are willing to spread knowledge to everyone.

For now, Sun Yang would start by getting to know the people first. By continuously donating medical supplies and learning new techniques, he had gradually gained the trust of the followers of Apocalypse.

This period of time is enough for Oasis Base to analyze most of the more basic technologies. Laser weapons, plasma weapons, nuclear fusion generators, and various types of nuclear batteries are all ready.

This was done with the help of the followers of Apocalypse. At first, Sun Yang was just trying to know how to make the implant, but these people quickly found some books for Sun Yang to read.

Then, with a try-it attitude, Sun Yang told the people here that he wanted to study how to repair fusion engines and recycle batteries. These kind-hearted followers of Apocalypse also passed on these technologies in return for the tons of medical supplies delivered by Sun Yang.

Nuclear fusion generators, nuclear batteries, and laser weapons were all mature technologies before the war. However, these technologies were lost along with the nuclear war, and only a few high-tech organizations have the ability to manufacture and repair them.

Neither Mr. House, the Brotherhood of Steel, nor the NCR's top brass would easily pass on these technologies. Only organizations like the Followers of the Apocalypse could offer them medical supplies in exchange for such technology.

In this day and age, repairing a nuclear fusion engine is much easier than shelling out thousands of doses of antipyretics, anti-allergy drugs, antibiotics, and anti-inflammatory drugs.

After all, this world no longer had advanced chemical production lines, nor did it even have the ability to mass-produce raw materials. They could only survive by relying on pre-war drugs they found and medicines they created through their own experimentation.

Sun Yang transferred all these medicines, which were relatively mature and popular in the advanced warfare world, to the followers of Apocalypse in exchange for their technology.

With the help of these people, Sun Yang provided reliable documentary records to the Oasis Base, avoiding many detours.

However, replacing the main base's power system was a complex undertaking, and a complete upgrade of the base's nuclear fusion generators would take a significant amount of time. Based on the estimated upgrade time provided by Pascal and the agent, it would be best to wait until Sun Yang was certain he had no other plans for several months before proceeding.

"Analysis of the nuclear battery is complete. This is incredible technology! If the design changes are complete, the humanoid bodies will probably wear out before the batteries do." Pascal sighed after testing the various nuclear batteries he had purchased.

Of the two options, the fusion engine and the fusion core, the fusion core option is more popular among combat dolls. After all, in the heat of battle, repairing the engine probably wouldn't be allowed, but replacing a removable core is no problem.

Thanks to mature nuclear battery technology, the new T-dolls' bodies were designed quickly, requiring only modifications to the power source circuitry. This improved power source technology was even published openly in a popular pre-war science and technology magazine.

This magazine not only mentioned that nuclear fusion cores will become the mainstream in the future, but also that the T45 and T60 on the East Coast have been converted to have nuclear fusion core functions, the magazine also revealed that there are already large factories on the East Coast that use nuclear fusion cores as emergency power supply energy.

All I can say is that the American style before the war was very tough. Technical magazines talked about everything, even mixing practical information with gossip. It was really mysterious.

Considering that there may be newer materials and technologies here, the Oasis humanoid design team did not make drastic changes, but only made improvements to the power source.

All T-dolls not on duty have been replaced with new batteries, so they no longer have to worry about power issues. However, many T-dolls have discovered that these batteries have a unique manual overload mode.

To put it simply, when the battery is damaged or about to run out of power, the humanoid can send a series of commands to overload the core and throw it out like a grenade.

The actual test results were very good. A layer of the wall of the test site was burned off, and the rooms around the test site were isolated and disinfected due to excessive radiation. The entire area was sealed and purified for three days. The agent also scolded the project for three days.

Secondly, the T-dolls' armaments are almost complete. Considering the need for sufficient power to be effective, laser machine guns and small laser guns are now in service.

The machine gun dolls will carry heavy laser weaponry into battle, relying on the energy provided by the nuclear fusion core to minimize logistical strain. The fusion core can provide minimal power for large-scale factories and is sufficient to meet the long-range and high-power needs of the dolls. After all, only a machine gun this large can provide powerful fire suppression and adequate heat dissipation.

Assault rifles will not be replaced because they can be equipped with ammunition with certain armor-piercing capabilities, and considering that they may encounter enemies with laser coatings at medium and close distances.

The rifle figures do not need to be modified, as their Gauss and Anti-Materials rifles have armor penetration and range far exceeding that of laser rifles of the same weight.

In the end, it was decided that a new type of universal nuclear battery-powered laser gun would replace the original IMR submachine gun/assault rifle. This laser gun is similar in size and weight to the submachine gun, but has only one barrel.

The design of this laser gun is more like that of a traditional laser weapon—a single pull of the trigger fires a continuous beam of heat energy that cuts and injures enemies. However, after 30 seconds of continuous exposure, it overheats and needs to cool down before use. In theory, this gun can fire until the battery breaks.

Automatic laser weapons in the Fallout world all employ multiple barrels that fire and cool in rotation, with cooling systems added later to maximize firing duration. However, during their experiments, the Oasis T-dolls discovered that no matter how they approached this structure, it would be bulky, and without a casing, it would be easily damaged by bumps and bruises.

So the tactical humanoids and the scientific research humanoids of Oasis discussed it and decided to use the most traditional continuous laser mode, and officially put this weapon into the ranks of backup weapons.

By the way, the combat range of the submachine gun doll is very close to the effective range of this laser gun. Most submachine gun dolls choose to carry two laser guns. When one overheats, they switch to the other one, which is very cool.

Plasma weapons were assigned to the Pistol and Shotgun Dolls, giving them the ability to destroy armor at close range. Several industrial heavy plasma launchers, unable to be reduced in size and weight, were converted into heavy individual plasma cannons, adding to the Machine Gun Dolls' arsenal.

Of course, the plasma grenades were already made, essentially copying the Fallout plasma grenades and reproducing them for the Griffin.

Unfortunately, the humanoids are still confused by the cutting-edge technology brought back from Dead Money.

After dissecting all the ghosts, they ultimately determined that the chemical suit was a highly advanced powered suit. It could carry out movements on behalf of the occupant if they became unable to. The humanoids ultimately speculated that it was some kind of extreme rescue suit, designed to carry people to the nearest treatment station and minimize casualties.

However, this power suit is clearly still in its experimental stages. Even though the people inside have been dead for centuries, the suit still functions flawlessly. The Oasis figure bluntly stated, "We're not fighting people, we're fighting this power suit. Unless we destroy it, it will keep functioning."

[While it feels useful, it also feels subtly useless. Well, as a rescue suit, it's pretty useless. I think it would be better if the power suits could just learn combat skills and disguise themselves as humans to fight?] After the medical humanoids finished the dissection, they immediately began to criticize it.

"What are you talking about? If they have the time and resources to build a power suit, why not just build a robot? This power suit has a bunch of precision sensors and motion correction parts. Wouldn't it be more durable if they just built a robot with the motion data? This thing is just a really awesome coat. With the manpower to build this thing, ten puppets could already be wielding guns and killing people." Kroki didn't hesitate to complain about the impracticality of this thing.

The progress in the Oasis was going smoothly. Just as Sun Yang finished reading the report and was about to continue to work with the Weather Followers to improve their favorability, the long-silent Makarov team sent a message. They had arrived at the Mojave Brotherhood of Steel bunker.

161 Face the Brotherhood of Steel!

Deep in a remote valley in the Mojave Desert, a few unfamiliar guests arrived. Leading the group was a woman with a buzz cut. Her name was Christine, an inner circle assassin of the Brotherhood of Steel, tasked with assassinating Elder Elijah.

Now she's heading back to the Brotherhood of Steel headquarters in Mojave with some big news and four very important people.

Behind her were four dejected human figures.

The woman first said she wanted to go find Veronica, but she didn't seem to take the proposal seriously. In the first few days, she wandered around with the humanoids, and every time it was night, she would find a way to escape.

However, the humanoids' rest is just to standby and process internal trivial information. Even if they take turns to sleep, there is a timer function that can be started with one button, so there is no possibility of anyone dozing off.

Christine couldn't figure out how these people were so self-disciplined and could actually keep someone awake at all times. How did they manage to fall asleep one second and wake up the next?

As for Veronica? Kristen wouldn't drag his girlfriend into such a dangerous situation. This was clearly a dangerous situation, and the other party had specifically asked for Veronica, so there was definitely a trap.

So when she felt that she couldn't delay it any longer, she suggested going to the fraternity bunker, and it ended up being delayed for another half a month.

[Damn it, how long is this guy going to be gone? It's already been a month, right? My body needs repairs, my battery needs replenishing... I want to read comics.] AAT52, carrying his machine gun, complained in the channel.

[Thankfully, the Commander prepared a lot of batteries for us. I heard the base's bodies can already use nuclear fusion cores as power. If we leave a little later, can we catch up?] The Type 92 is the lightest in the team, so naturally it has to carry the most supplies.

[Ariana is running around with the fun-loving Postman No. 404, Team is partying in New Vegas, and only we, Miss Tomato and Miss Nori, are walking with a silent human in this vast and beautiful Mojave Desert!] Sten exclaimed loudly in the channel.

She's still circling us, trying to shake us off. Makarov checked his trajectory and called out to the woman in front.

"Christine, have you forgotten how to get there again?" Makarov's voice was not loud, but Christine, who was leading the way in front, made a slight "tsk" sound.

"Just think about how many Death Claws, gang members, and NCR patrols are here. I guess you're still thinking about how to lure us to the Brotherhood of Steel patrol. If you don't want your friends to die ugly, I advise you not to do this. Don't think that you can defeat everyone with a set of power armor. We have faced enemies that are far stronger than a few tin cans, but we are still standing here." Makarov said, and AAT52 behind her followed up.

"Wow, I realized I still have a box of armor-piercing incendiary rounds." AAT52 loaded a new box of ammunition onto her gun. She fired two shots at the abandoned transport vehicle next to her, piercing it completely.

"Okay, okay. I understand." Christine finally couldn't go around any further, so she simply walked in one direction for an hour and finally arrived at a place with three low bunkers.

"I will convey the corresponding commands when I go in later. Please stay calm and don't attack anyone you see." Christine led the four human figures down into one of the bunkers and dissuaded the people behind her.

"I hope you can stay calm and, after informing us of the intelligence, don't let the people on the other side shoot at us. The commander has told me about the style of your Brotherhood of Steel." Makarov responded bluntly.

Christine didn't say anything else. There was an intercom at the end of the bunker. She pressed the intercom button, but there was only silence from the other end.

"The Urban Cannon will break down the walls of Rome," Christine said into the intercom.

This story is truly bizarre. It's just Rome against Rome; whoever wins is Rome. What are you talking about? Is Rome, without its spirit, worthy of being called Rome? Isn't the green ivy a Luo? Winner takes all, okay?

[Silence.] Makarov told these unreasonable teammates to shut up. She frowned, stepped forward, grabbed Christine by the neck, dragged her over, and pushed her in front of her.

"What are you doing? I'm not going to run away." Christine wanted to break free, but Makarov was much stronger than her. The pressure from her neck made her dare not struggle desperately.

"If you're not going to run away, why are you still staying by the door? You seem to want to go home very much. I guess your friends won't have the heart to burn you to ashes. Just bear with it for a while so that they can make things clear." Makarov replied nonchalantly.

Makarov has already sent the commander a report on what's going on here, and the commander will probably be in charge of the detailed negotiations later. Hmm, thinking about the commander's diplomatic attitude most of the time, I always have the illusion that I'm going to be killed.

The door next to the intercom opened quietly, revealing several figures wearing heavy power armor, carrying heavy laser machine guns and Gauss rifles.

These power armors are generally around two meters tall, and their thick alloy armor plates and power servos can easily lift heavy machine guns for firing. The special alloy armor on the power armor can also withstand attacks from most light weapons.

Most people, when faced with a combination of iron cans and heavy firepower, usually have no means of fighting back. They are either robbed by the Brotherhood or killed immediately.

"Christine, welcome back. Hmm?" The people from the Brotherhood of Steel were stunned for a moment when they saw this scene, probably because the result was different from what they expected.

"Hey, Ms. Makarov, you are here to negotiate, right? This is not good for both parties, right?" Christine was grabbed by the neck and pushed forward, continuing to try to persuade Makarov.

"You don't seem like you're here to negotiate." The Brotherhood of Steel members inside the bunker were also very cold, especially when they saw their own people being captured.

"Yeah, if I let go and she slips in, will we be able to finish our conversation alive? That's all." Makarov held Christine's neck firmly.

"I am the messenger of Griffin Oasis Base, Makarov of the Palette Team. Now all of you listen carefully, I will broadcast the commander's words." Makarov took out a wireless loudspeaker from his clothes and threw it on the ground.

Sun Yang, who was far away in the Free City, observed Makarov's situation through the window. He cleared his throat and prepared to express his opinion.

"I'm Sun Yang, the commander of Griffin Oasis Base. To make a long story short, I think there's something wrong with the state of your Brotherhood of Steel, so I want to talk to your elders about certain technologies and the state of openness..."

"I'm a Paladin of the Brotherhood of Steel. Now, you don't need to know my name. Because we won't talk to people who only dare to hide behind walkie-talkies. You don't understand the Brotherhood of Steel, so don't judge us with your crude and superficial eyes. You wastelanders have never known how dangerous certain pre-war technologies are. If you are not careful, you will take the entire West Coast with you." The knight of the Brotherhood directly refuted a lot of things.

"Oh, really? I've heard rumors about the Brotherhood of Steel. You only keep—or rather, plunder—military technology and knowledge. You don't care about agricultural technology or water conservancy technology? You still say that your organization is noble? What big talk a bunch of high-tech bandits are saying? It makes me laugh to death." Sun Yang said sarcastically.

"You sent four lives here just to say these few words of nonsense?" The knight of the Brotherhood of Steel was already very impatient.

"My attitude is very simple. The Brotherhood of Steel should open its doors and collect civilian knowledge and technology that you didn't care about before. You should spread medical knowledge and planting knowledge, which are technologies that are beneficial to the wasteland, and then spread these technologies to those in need, to help the people in the wasteland. Any organization that does not win the support of the people will be doomed." Sun Yang made his words clear.

"What you said is exactly the same as what Veronica said. Was it she who asked you to come here to act? Humph, I knew that guy had bad intentions. He couldn't win the argument himself, so he leaked the secret to people outside, right? Christine, I remember you were tracking down Elder Elijah. How did you follow these people here? I know your relationship with that Veronica. Do you have anything to explain?" The Knight of the Brotherhood of Steel said disdainfully.

"Elijah was killed by this group of people. Pas, this group of people, this group of people..." Christine was dizzy from being pinched, and she tried to come up with a suitable excuse.

"You can tell me everything you know, it's okay. How about showing him Elijah's head?" Sun Yang's voice came from the loudspeaker.

"Pas, these people have power armor that is no less powerful than ours, their firepower is very strong, and they have mastered some kind of teleportation technology. I went to the Madre Casino, and these people have completely occupied the casino and are analyzing the technology inside. Didn't you see the equipment on them? That is a powered exoskeleton, a lightweight version of power armor. Pas, for the sake of this crisis, stop looking for trouble!" Christine opened the cloth bag around her waist and took out Elijah's shriveled head.

"Oh? Then let me see where they are. Where are your power armor and teleportation technology? Christine, are you also fooling around with Veronica? You think you can scare us with a few mercenaries with metal bars welded on their bodies, a bunch of light weapons, a loudspeaker, and your performance? Haha, for the sake of your 'girlfriend', you even took out Elijah's head as evidence. Your feelings are really deep." The knights of the Brotherhood of Steel have changed Christine's identity to a non-friendly force.

"Christine, I don't know any teleportation technology. But, okay, I get it. It seems there is really nothing to talk about." Sun Yang's voice was full of regret.

"Yes." The knight of the Brotherhood of Steel raised his gun.

[Everyone! Attack!] Makarov, perceptive enough to notice the other party's movements, immediately sent a command over the communication channel. She dodged to the side, grabbing Christine's neck and throwing her to the side.

The AAT52's machine guns and the Brotherhood of Steel's miniguns and laser machine guns fired at the same time.

The specially made armor-piercing bullet penetrated the power armor of a Brotherhood soldier, and the person inside was shot into a sieve. The Brotherhood soldier who pulled the trigger of the minigun immediately knelt down, and the minigun fell to the ground.

AAT52 was also hit by countless deadly high-temperature laser beams and a Gauss ammunition at the same time. Her position shield could not even last for a second before the scorching laser overloaded the shield.

Her weapons and body were melted and chopped apart by the lasers, and the Gauss ammunition directly blew off her skull. In just a few seconds, she was completely reduced to a pile of twisted metal garbage. Her core shut down, and she instantly turned into a cloud of dust and returned to the base world.

[AAT killed!] Sten and Type 92 quickly sought cover and threw out their smoke bombs, stun grenades and grenades, but smoke bombs needed time to spray smoke, and stun grenades and grenades were useless against these Brotherhood soldiers wearing power armor.

The scorching laser jets swept towards the nearby bunkers - these bunkers were set up by the Brotherhood itself. Because the enemy might subconsciously seek reliable bunkers, unfortunately, those seemingly solid bunkers were all unable to withstand the shooting of the laser machine guns.

The terrifying red light penetrated the thin mist, and the Sten and Type 92 rifles, who were only carrying submachine guns and pistols, disappeared in the next second along with those unreliable bunkers.

Makarov was not spared either. Although she took evasive action at the first moment, the space was not big to be honest. The opponent just moved the gun barrel slightly and cut Makarov, who was trying to fight with grenades and pistols, in half.

"I, I knew it would be like this. Oh... there's no way we can communicate. These people are crazy." Makarov muttered miserably as the scorching laser burned what was left of her to ashes.

"According to our sacred code, members are forbidden to disclose any technology of the Brotherhood of Steel. We will find you and the technology you abused, Sun Yang." The knight of the Brotherhood of Steel stopped the smoking laser machine gun, and after he said this, he stomped on the intercom to pieces.

It was a shameful confrontation, and a warrior was killed on his doorstep. The Brotherhood Knight frowned and crossed the battlefield, leaving the friendly forces behind to treat the wounded and clean up the battlefield.

He was thrown out and ended up picking up the unconscious Christine who was thrown against the wall.

It is hard to say what Christine's specific attitude is now. She could be genuinely conveying a message for Veronica, or she could argue that it was a lie she made up at a critical moment in order to gain the trust of the people behind her.

Let's put this matter aside for now. What really matters is the force that can use this weapon - a machine gun that can fire ammunition that penetrates power armor is simply unheard of.

This Brotherhood Knight also carefully observed the death situation of the opponent in the previous battle.

For a second or two, something like a shield appeared in front of the opponent, but it seemed to have only roughly blocked it. After all, there were several laser machine guns shooting at it, and most things could not withstand such shooting.

Even worse, the thing that had been melted and cut off looked more like a mechanical structure than a human body. It was highly likely that the person had undergone very advanced surgery, otherwise it would be impossible to explain the person's strength to lift and throw people.

And now, there wasn't even a body left at the scene. Even with such excessive firepower, there should have been some trace left. This wasn't good news. The enemy likely possessed some kind of concealed technology. As soon as a soldier died, the implants in their bodies would kick in, rapidly decomposing and corroding the body and weapons. Such technology wasn't uncommon in the wasteland.

The Brotherhood Knight ordered his men to continue cleaning up the scene while he carried Christine back to the depths of the bunker. Now, he had to report to the elders and try to get some useful information from Christine.
