Mr. Lieutenant Colonel, our operations in the heart of Qingquan were at a stalemate, the soldiers fought bravely, and our enemies suffered heavy losses, but unfortunately, until now we still have not been able to get close to our mother nest.
Although the Prowler tank has excellent mobility and reliable armor, it has to be overhauled every time it comes back from attendance, and the parts that need to be replaced cannot be found here.
Especially our equipment has no advantage when facing the sieve of slime mold fruiting entities. They fall down in pieces and rush up in groups... it is like a wave.Before we kill them all, we may be dragged down by the unravelled logistics one step ahead.
The most worrying thing are those evolutions…the names given by the technicians who followed us into the city center.We found that some slime fibromic fruit entities have undergone secondary mutations based on mutations, and have even begun to imitate us, evolved structures similar to power armor and exoskeletons, and even eroded our drones and tanks.
This is not my nonsense, I know it sounds incredible, but if we continue to treat them as beasts fighting with our teeth and claws, or biochemical weapons sent to the battlefield by our enemies, we may have paid a heavy price... In fact, our casualties are already heavy enough.
Compared with advanced weapons, we need more convenient maintenance and sufficient equipment.Instead of using precious equipment and manpower to fill in this front that is simply unsatisfactory, just like now.
Finally, let’s have some good news. The wall outside the Giant Stone Building has been completed, and the brothers in the production department are as reliable as ever. This magnificent project can protect at least 100,000 people through the most difficult cold winter.The refugees in the south do not have to continue to migrate northward, and can be placed on the spot in the western suburbs of Qingquan City. At least our goal in the first phase has been completed.We will immediately start the second phase of action after a little rest.
I heard that the technical department is looking for ways to solve the problem of slime mold from the genetic level.
I have an idea here, why not use the genes in the gene bank to produce a group of super soldiers who are not afraid of death?
Even if they are not useful on the battlefield, they can at least help us move something. It is too troublesome to maintain those bionics and robots, so we probably have to configure an extra maintenance company.
Telegram from the Front (Island), March 21, 2150.
On the Heart of Steel.
Chu Guang, who was sitting in the captain's room, was browsing the official website forum of "Wasteland OL" through a holographic computer.
This information was recovered by players of the Death Corps and was synchronized to the shelter server with the help of the regiment's communication station.
Seeing the information uploaded to the official website by the players taking photos, he touched his chin thoughtfully and leaned back on the chair.
2150...it should be the 21st year of the Wasteland Era.
He is very sensitive to numbers and remembers very clearly that the first year of the Wasteland Era was 2129.
However, in March, I was too busy to think about it.
Spring is the period of wave outbreak, and the reproduction rate of variant slime fungi will reach its highest peak, and the density of spores in the air will also reach its peak.
Of course, this is looking at the problem from the perspective of latecomers.
Perhaps survivors at the time had not yet realized the concept of waves, as indicated in this telegram, the Post-War Reconstruction Committee underestimated the threat of those mutant slime molds.
and……
It should be nuclear winter then?
But these are not the point.
What Chu Guang cares more about is the last line of the telegram.
...A group of soldiers who are not afraid of death refer to the Willant people?
Seeing this sentence, Chu Guang was puzzled.
Those big noses were not as afraid of death as they imagined...
Maybe it's because the players are awakened, or maybe it's because their attribute panels are outrageous enough. Anyway, he doesn't think the big noses are very strong in combat.
Maybe it's stronger than ordinary people.
Xiao Qi.
A very energetic voice came to my ears, and today it was still a rare voice from the emperor.
Here, master.
After pondering for a moment, Chu Guang spoke.
...Retrieve all the information collected by the Death Corps players, not just the Willant people, I need all the information about the Legion, the Enterprise, and the Academy.
Very stolen!
Hearing the energetic answer, Chu Guang waited for a moment. In less than a minute, Xiaoqi quickly completed the search of all the pictures.
Whether it is uploaded by players or saved in personal albums.
All information was sorted into a text document in a classified manner and a catalog was created for him to check it out.
Although most of the clues collected by players were fragmented, they accidentally pieced together a lot of amazing information.
Just as he guessed.
The Willant people are indeed races created through genetic modification technology.
Although the project was initially opposed by the Commission's technical department, the ongoing heavy casualties and a large amount of untreated work on the front line forced the Commission's defense department to put pressure on the technical department.
In 2150, in the 21st year of the Wasteland Era, taking the heavy casualties of the Qingquan City Operation as an opportunity, the Super Soldier Project, called the Willant People Program, was finally passed under countless pressures from all sides.
And the Commission’s Ministry of Defense, the predecessor of the Legion, is an inseparable connection with the chaos a century and a half ago.
Chu Guang couldn't help but feel a little curious in his heart, and he continued to read along with the clues compiled by Xiaoqi.
The 23 pairs of chromosomes of the Willant humans are designed entirely by genetic modification technology, and the material is extracted from an incomplete gene library called Willant.
The first thousand gene primordials born have extraordinary combat power.
They have a nearly beastly combat instinct on the basis of retaining human nature, and even without systematic training, they can still defeat more than five well-trained veterans in combat.
However, this is also the point where the uselessness lies.
Even in the battlefield after the prosperity era, there are still not many opportunities for bare hands to fight.
The strong body makes them more suitable for participating in dangerous tasks with the highest casualty rate. Although their super reflex nerves and motor ability allow them to kill enemies more efficiently, their number is too small.
These super soldiers ultimately failed to play much role in the battlefield, which also led to further marginalization of politics.
After several battles against mutant slime, the Willant was individually organized into a rapid response brigade, led by a young commander named Julius, using relatively low-logistical equipment to support the battle of the regular army.
Julius's life is also full of legend. He was born almost the same year as the Willant Project. Since his father was a senior officer of the 111th Orbital Airborne Division of the People's Federation, he received a militarization education since he could remember.
As an old man, he grew up almost with those new mankind, and fifteen years later, he followed the new mankind on the battlefield against mutant slime molds as a commander.
Chu Guang used the search function to search the name Julius, and found that in the documents with less than 500,000 words, this seemingly ordinary name unexpectedly appeared hundreds of times in the following text.
... Speaking of which, the marshal of the legion seems to be called this name.Chu Guang vaguely remembered hearing Vanus say the name of their marshal.
However, on the West Coast, few people will call that person's name directly, usually with the title of Marshal.
If the Legion's Marshal and Julius in the literature were the same person, then this guy would have to live at least one hundred and fifty years!
Chu Guang smacked his tongue in surprise, unable to imagine what it felt like.
In "Stars", an officer who has lived for 150 years has been at the top of his level even if he throws the patrol fleet and suppresses pirates in his life.
His index finger continued to slide on the holographic screen and he quickly turned down a page.
Skip the lengthy description and time soon arrived at the 41st year of the Wasteland Era.
The committee's progress in clearing slime molds is quite difficult, and the endless cold winter has made the problems of scarcity of resources and low productivity even worse.
Some climatologists even said desperately that the planet may not be transforming into a wasteland planet, but is evolving towards a more fragile polar planet in the ecosystem, and one-third of the land will eventually be buried under a 240-meter-thick ice layer.
That war may have brought the world back 18,000 years.
However, even so, removing the slime mold from this planet is still the most important issue.
All research signs indicate that this simple creature is more cold-resistant than other native carbon-based creatures on this planet.
If the trouble cannot be solved before the situation worsens, the trouble in the future will exceed everyone's expectations.
So far, survivors have not yet discovered the self-limiting nature of slime mold, but are simply afraid of monsters that cannot be cleaned even if they throw nuclear bombs.
If the survivors at that time knew that as long as the urban circles in the era of the People's Union retreated to suburbs with lower construction density, they would enter a period of recession after the slime mold expanded to a certain level, and there would probably be no more troubles.
Of course, this is a consideration from the perspective of latecomers. Many research results on slime molds were discovered in the war against slime molds.
In short, in order to reduce the loss of manpower, the Commission's Ministry of Defense, based on the Willant People's Program, put forward a further requirement for them to need a clone soldier who can both produce quickly and play a role in the battlefield.
They don't have to be very powerful, or even have the mind of a normal human, but they must complete the cycle from assembly line to battlefield in the shortest time.
Compared with the defense department in the 21st year of the Wasteland Era, the defense department in the 41st year has obviously gradually reached an extreme.
The Post-War Reconstruction Committee held a meeting to discuss the relevant legislation, and the three major departments of production, defense and technology participated in the debate.
This meeting was recorded in the literature as a tripartite meeting.
This is also the second major disagreement encountered since the establishment of the Post-War Reconstruction Committee.
The long-established contradictions have reached their peak before the meeting begins, and the meeting of open debate is more like a catharsis.
The defense department, which continues to suffer casualties, requires the production and technology department to provide a cloned soldier who can play a sufficient role in the battlefield, instead of the casualties of the soldier of the United Nations.
From the standpoint of the Ministry of Defense, this is a completely reasonable requirement.
After all, their soldiers not only undertake the security and order maintenance of the settlement, but also are responsible for protecting the exploration personnel from the technical department to enter the remains to recover pre-war civilization technology.
The war has been over for 41 years, but their war has never ended.According to twenty years, their sacrifices have even spanned two generations and influenced at least four generations.
The technical department, like 20 years ago, still expressed strong opposition and claimed that this will not only bring about technical risks such as DNA pollution, but also may lead to a collapse at the civilization level.
This kind of concern is not unreasonable.
The Willant people, cultivated through genetic technology and do not have basic political rights, have become de facto slave soldiers, and the history has reversed to a slave society in the feudal period that was longer than the prosperity era.
This idea was wrong from the beginning, and they obviously had better choices.
For example, robots and AI.
However, this proposal was objected to by the Ministry of Production.
Without a perfect industrial chain support, the cost of producing a sufficiently reliable robot is not a matter of several times or dozens of times, but a geometric increase.
The expensive production and maintenance costs are not something that the post-war reconstruction committee today can afford.
Unless the expenses for each survivor settlement are completely cut off, the survivor settlements, including the marble, will be left to fend for themselves.
Even so, the cost that can be saved is far from meeting the needs of the defense department for manpower.
What's more, cutting off the budgets of various survivor settlements means that the Post-War Reconstruction Committee will lose a huge pool of manpower, which is tantamount to drinking poison to quench thirst.
In order to appease the Ministry of Technology and Defense, the Ministry of Production has put forward many compromise suggestions.
For example, limited political rights can be granted to the Willant people, such as liberalizing the right to reproduction, etc., and appropriately accepting some Willant people into the large family of the People's Federation, as long as they can establish outstanding achievements on the battlefield.
As for clones with higher yields, there is no need to limit their lives to the profession of cannon fodder, and they can be allowed to freely enter factories or farmland to engage in resource production.
This high-quality labor force is not only needed by the defense department, but also by the production department.
The meeting ended up not discussing any results, but instead laid hidden dangers for the subsequent disintegration of the post-war reconstruction committee.
The year after the tripartite meeting ended, in 2171, 42 of the Wasteland Era, the Willant Laboratory recovered by the Academy's exploration team on the West Coast became the fuse to ignite the powder keg.
There is a complete gene bank of the Willant people, and it also preserves the Singularity Technology Lifecycle Adjustable Technology that was not completed before the end of the prosperity era.
Under General Julius, the Rapid Response Brigade composed of the Willant people occupied the laboratory and seized all the explorers of the Exploration Team of the Technical Department.
Faced with strong protests and negotiations from the technical department, the Ministry of Defense simply claimed that it was Julius' personal behavior and was extremely negative about the arrest of the out-of-control senior officer, and even accidentally sent a nuclear fusion battery to the occupied laboratory.
It is obvious that they are trying to complete the study, or use some sub-technology in this study to create a clone army that can grow eight times faster.
Objectively speaking, the people from the Ministry of Defense have shown a lot of restraint. After all, they can directly grab it, but they still made up a bad reason to pretend.
The committee's control over various departments has declined to the bottom, while the conflict between the Ministry of Defense and Technology, which is opposite, has reached its peak.
In 2172, in the 43rd year of the Wasteland Era, after several accidents, the Ministry of Technology completely lost its trust in the Ministry of Defense.
Under the leadership of the then Minister of Technology and Dean of the College, the Ministry of Technology transferred a large number of core technical personnel to the northern swamp in the name of exploring large ruins, and under the framework of the pre-war academic organization college, it planned to build its own armed exploration force.
The Ministry of Defense is indifferent to this, their center of gravity is shifting to the west of the Great Desert, and the West Coast City and most of the military facilities are actually under the control of that out of control senior officer.
Although the commission's production department is low-key, it is also not a fuel-efficient lamp.
Even before the fuse of the tripartite meeting, they had already secretly used resource tilts and other means to prioritize the construction of settlements on the east coast.
The ideal city was born in this context.
Not only that, they even joined forces with the managers of Shelter No. 6 and the then captain of the colonial ship to jointly promote the enterprise plan, establish a regional supreme council, and put forward the general route of industrial salvation.
Perhaps in the view of the then Minister of Production, the colonists who stranded the colonial ships on the surface to save their mother planet, and the residents of Shelter No. 6, who bravely opened the door to save more survivors, are more trustworthy than those of their colleagues who were fighting at the negotiating table.
Although idealists rarely make immediate results that are visible to the naked eye, every advancement of civilization cannot be separated from the exploration of idealists.
They decided to replace the committee and become explorers of the new era.
In 2173, in the 44th year of the Wasteland Era, the second fuse incident occurred. The Ministry of Production felt that the fall of the post-war reconstruction committee was inevitable, so it unilaterally announced the Yunjian Provincial Revival Act through the already full-winged Ideal City.
The bill stipulates that the four strategic cooperative defense zones of Yunjian Province, namely Shanhai, Archipelago, Neihu and Hekou, the three urban circles of Beiyun, Shangyun and Xiayun, as well as the two industrial zones No. 1 and No. 2, are jointly owned by all survivors of Yunjian Province.
This sounds like a very gentle initiative and makes sense.
But in fact, there are other plans.
On the night of the bill's enactment, more than a dozen armed forces set out from Ideal City in the name of the enterprise and quickly took over all the research institutes of the Commission's technical department on the East Coast, as well as the remains of pre-war civilization under development.
Fierce exchange of fire broke out in some research facilities between the two sides.
The academy's armed forces were established for a short time and were not strong in combat, but due to the investment of a large amount of high-tech equipment and war weapons controlled by AI, it still caused considerable trouble to the enterprise's troops.
Although the company still won the final victory, it also led to the destruction of many research facilities.
For example, the experimental facilities engaged in the research of singularity technology, the cloze living organisms, were turned into ashes in that conflict.
This result not only led to a complete loss of the originals of the cloze-like life technology, but also caused some DNA-unstable experimental subjects to escape to the wasteland, some of which moved along the coastline, and some migrated towards the direction of the Great Desert.
And these experimental subjects that were trampled on wasteland were later mutants.
Although the conflict was in the name of Enterprise and Ideal City and there was no participation from the production department, the researchers in the Technology Department were not stupid.
Taking this incident as an opportunity, the doctor immediately announced the dissolution of the technical department. Not only did he take over all the survivors of Wandering Swamp in the name of the college, but he also permanently cut off all technical support outside the Wandering Swamp, and even deleted the database in the Great Rift Valley.
Especially the part about the coordinates of pre-war civilization ruins.
So far, the army, enterprises and colleges have embarked on the stage of history.
The Ministry of Defense, Production and Technology that completed the asset transfer.They successively threw down their historical burdens and announced their disbandment happily.
The post-war reconstruction committee, which has lost three important departments and has been operating for 44 years, has been in name only and cannot support the settlements of survivors in various places.
By the 2174th year, the 45th year of the Wasteland Era.
Facing the empty conference table, the post-war reconstruction committee finally came to the last step and officially announced its dissolution.
From now on, the settlements will no longer need to comply with the provisional constitution formulated by the Commission, nor will they need to be managed by the Commission.
In contrast, each settlement needs to find a way out and solve its own survival problems in the endless cold winter and the invasion of alien species.
In its final statement, the chief of the committee still expressed his hope that the management of the settlements will not forget their mission and rescue their compatriots around them as much as possible.
No one knew about it at the time.
Just in the fifth year after the post-war Reconstruction Commission announced its dissolution, the atmospheric environment showed signs of beginning to recover.
The long nuclear winter also came to an end in people's surprise eyes, and the declining species have resurrected on this land.
At this point, the Legion, college and enterprise entered a period of development one after another, and the Wasteland Era entered a half-century refuge era from the Commission era.
As the climate reaches the preset standard for ending dormancy, the shelters have opened their doors one after another, and the old popsicles who have walked out of the shelter have also stepped onto the stage that has become wasteland.
Although the plan deviated from the expected track from the outset, most shelters neither found the dissolved post-war reconstruction committee nor managed the things on the surface as well as they were inside the shelter.
But incompatible with this era, they still injected a shot of a heart-warming shot into the declining world for a short time, and used the knowledge of the prosperity era and the mysterious black boxes and other objects to help some wastelanders survive the dark age of the initial loss of the Reconstruction Committee.
What surprised Chu Guang was that these unknown secrets were placed on the bookshelf of the Great Rift Valley lounge for people to read at will.
What he didn't expect was that the old neighbors in the north of the alliance were once the headquarters of the Post-War Reconstruction Committee.
No... I can't say I didn't expect it at all.
Chu Guang carefully recalled the holographic image left by Dr. Principle that he had seen with Yin Fang before, and connected the clues collected by the Death Corps with it.
...In the second year of the Wasteland Era, Doctor Principle, who had been postponed for two years, went to the Great Rift Valley to meet with the comrades of the Post-War Reconstruction Committee under the escort of the 111th Orbital Airborne Division, and accompanied more than a thousand survivors outside the plan.
According to the description in the holographic image, the Great Rift Valley was already controlled by the 111th Orbital Airborne Division at that time... In other words, the predecessor of the Legion was actually the 111th Orbital Airborne Division deployed in the Valley Province?
And he also saved one of the three founders of the academy?!
Looking at these information collected by the players and the past over the past century, Chu Guang couldn't help feeling mixed feelings for a moment.
When shelter 404 was closed, so many things happened outside...
At this moment, he finally realized the mood of Doctor Method, why did that guy run to shelter No. 101 and be autistic.
If I were stabbed twice in a row by my teammate, I was afraid that my mentality would not be very good, especially if I was completely inexplicably hit by the second one.
However, from the standpoint of the disbanded Ministry of Defense and Production, they certainly have their own reasons.
‘I’m bleeding and sweating to help you open the remains, so that you can’t do the clone skills. I’ll do it myself!’
‘Anyway, you will definitely be separated in the future. Since it is an expected high-probability event, why can’t the person who takes action first be me?’
Looking at the last page in the holographic image, Chu Guang couldn't help but think of his alliance.
Both him and the league are very young, but he always gets old one day, and human abilities are ultimately limiting, and he cannot always keep up with the changes of the times.
The player's world is also moving forward, and even with the technical support of the shelter, they will progress faster than normal, and even enter the prosperity era ahead of schedule.
By then, Wasteland OL will face new challenges.
...Anyway, the alliance will not follow the footsteps of the ‘committee’.
After chanting softly, Chu Guang stretched out his index finger and stroked in the air, closing the window floating in front of him.
He always has a strong sense of déjà vu.
I seem to have said something similar before.
And at this moment, a light blue pop-up window suddenly flashed in front of his eyes without warning.
Emergency mission triggers!
Note: The morphological field device detects an abnormal individual and triggers flag6 judgment. Player ID: Luoyu The login permission is temporarily frozen.
Requirements: This task has been noted as the highest priority, and the coordinates have been updated to the shelter server map file. Please ask the administrator to recover the abnormal individual as soon as possible, and anesthetize them and place them on the B1 conveyor belt.
Mission Reward: Unlock B6 layer
This mission pop-up window hasn't appeared for a long time, and Chu Guang almost didn't recognize it suddenly popped up.
When he saw the mission reward, he was even more stunned.
B6 floor?
etc……
Haven’t the B5 layer been unlocked yet?
Why did you skip it directly?
But what he cared more about was the instructions for the emergency mission.
...Abnormal individuals?!
What's the thing?
Chu Guang was stunned for a few seconds, and came to his senses and immediately turned on the holographic computer again and ordered his cute little assistant.
Xiao Qi immediately synchronized the latest received coordinates on the shelter server to my holographic computer.
Xiaoqi: Received!
The coordinates soon appeared on the map.
It happens to be in the southern part of Luoxia Province, where the Lost Valley is located.
Seeing this coordinate, Chu Guang was even more confused.
He remembered clearly that a nuclear bomb was only bombed there a few hours ago.
Even if a player insists on trying to get over and try what it feels like to be bombed by a nuclear bomb, he won’t be able to survive if he gets a nuclear bomb, right?
Can this game still cheat?
Just as Chu Guang was wondering what was going on, a miserable wail appeared on the official forum.
Blanch Ah!
I'm counting, why don't I leave when the countdown to resurrection is over!!!
Although the Prowler tank has excellent mobility and reliable armor, it has to be overhauled every time it comes back from attendance, and the parts that need to be replaced cannot be found here.
Especially our equipment has no advantage when facing the sieve of slime mold fruiting entities. They fall down in pieces and rush up in groups... it is like a wave.Before we kill them all, we may be dragged down by the unravelled logistics one step ahead.
The most worrying thing are those evolutions…the names given by the technicians who followed us into the city center.We found that some slime fibromic fruit entities have undergone secondary mutations based on mutations, and have even begun to imitate us, evolved structures similar to power armor and exoskeletons, and even eroded our drones and tanks.
This is not my nonsense, I know it sounds incredible, but if we continue to treat them as beasts fighting with our teeth and claws, or biochemical weapons sent to the battlefield by our enemies, we may have paid a heavy price... In fact, our casualties are already heavy enough.
Compared with advanced weapons, we need more convenient maintenance and sufficient equipment.Instead of using precious equipment and manpower to fill in this front that is simply unsatisfactory, just like now.
Finally, let’s have some good news. The wall outside the Giant Stone Building has been completed, and the brothers in the production department are as reliable as ever. This magnificent project can protect at least 100,000 people through the most difficult cold winter.The refugees in the south do not have to continue to migrate northward, and can be placed on the spot in the western suburbs of Qingquan City. At least our goal in the first phase has been completed.We will immediately start the second phase of action after a little rest.
I heard that the technical department is looking for ways to solve the problem of slime mold from the genetic level.
I have an idea here, why not use the genes in the gene bank to produce a group of super soldiers who are not afraid of death?

This is also the second major disagreement encountered since the establishment of the Post-War Reconstruction Committee.
The long-established contradictions have reached their peak before the meeting begins, and the meeting of open debate is more like a catharsis.
The defense department, which continues to suffer casualties, requires the production and technology department to provide a cloned soldier who can play a sufficient role in the battlefield, instead of the casualties of the soldier of the United Nations.
From the standpoint of the Ministry of Defense, this is a completely reasonable requirement.
After all, their soldiers not only undertake the security and order maintenance of the settlement, but also are responsible for protecting the exploration personnel from the technical department to enter the remains to recover pre-war civilization technology.
The war has been over for 41 years, but their war has never ended.According to twenty years, their sacrifices have even spanned two generations and influenced at least four generations.
The technical department, like 20 years ago, still expressed strong opposition and claimed that this will not only bring about technical risks such as DNA pollution, but also may lead to a collapse at the civilization level.
This kind of concern is not unreasonable.
The Willant people, cultivated through genetic technology and do not have basic political rights, have become de facto slave soldiers, and the history has reversed to a slave society in the feudal period that was longer than the prosperity era.
This idea was wrong from the beginning, and they obviously had better choices.
For example, robots and AI.
However, this proposal was objected to by the Ministry of Production.
Without a perfect industrial chain support, the cost of producing a sufficiently reliable robot is not a matter of several times or dozens of times, but a geometric increase.
The expensive production and maintenance costs are not something that the post-war reconstruction committee today can afford.
Unless the expenses for each survivor settlement are completely cut off, the survivor settlements, including the marble, will be left to fend for themselves.
Even so, the cost that can be saved is far from meeting the needs of the defense department for manpower.
What's more, cutting off the budgets of various survivor settlements means that the Post-War Reconstruction Committee will lose a huge pool of manpower, which is tantamount to drinking poison to quench thirst.
In order to appease the Ministry of Technology and Defense, the Ministry of Production has put forward many compromise suggestions.
For example, limited political rights can be granted to the Willant people, such as liberalizing the right to reproduction, etc., and appropriately accepting some Willant people into the large family of the People's Federation, as long as they can establish outstanding achievements on the battlefield.
As for clones with higher yields, there is no need to limit their lives to the profession of cannon fodder, and they can be allowed to freely enter factories or farmland to engage in resource production.
This high-quality labor force is not only needed by the defense department, but also by the production department.
The meeting ended up not discussing any results, but instead laid hidden dangers for the subsequent disintegration of the post-war reconstruction committee.
The year after the tripartite meeting ended, in 2171, 42 of the Wasteland Era, the Willant Laboratory recovered by the Academy's exploration team on the West Coast became the fuse to ignite the powder keg.
There is a complete gene bank of the Willant people, and it also preserves the Singularity Technology Lifecycle Adjustable Technology that was not completed before the end of the prosperity era.
Under General Julius, the Rapid Response Brigade composed of the Willant people occupied the laboratory and seized all the explorers of the Exploration Team of the Technical Department.
Faced with strong protests and negotiations from the technical department, the Ministry of Defense simply claimed that it was Julius' personal behavior and was extremely negative about the arrest of the out-of-control senior officer, and even accidentally sent a nuclear fusion battery to the occupied laboratory.
It is obvious that they are trying to complete the study, or use some sub-technology in this study to create a clone army that can grow eight times faster.
Objectively speaking, the people from the Ministry of Defense have shown a lot of restraint. After all, they can directly grab it, but they still made up a bad reason to pretend.
The committee's control over various departments has declined to the bottom, while the conflict between the Ministry of Defense and Technology, which is opposite, has reached its peak.
In 2172, in the 43rd year of the Wasteland Era, after several accidents, the Ministry of Technology completely lost its trust in the Ministry of Defense.
Under the leadership of the then Minister of Technology and Dean of the College, the Ministry of Technology transferred a large number of core technical personnel to the northern swamp in the name of exploring large ruins, and under the framework of the pre-war academic organization college, it planned to build its own armed exploration force.
The Ministry of Defense is indifferent to this, their center of gravity is shifting to the west of the Great Desert, and the West Coast City and most of the military facilities are actually under the control of that out of control senior officer.
Although the commission's production department is low-key, it is also not a fuel-efficient lamp.
Even before the fuse of the tripartite meeting, they had already secretly used resource tilts and other means to prioritize the construction of settlements on the east coast.
The ideal city was born in this context.
Not only that, they even joined forces with the managers of Shelter No. 6 and the then captain of the colonial ship to jointly promote the enterprise plan, establish a regional supreme council, and put forward the general route of industrial salvation.
Perhaps in the view of the then Minister of Production, the colonists who stranded the colonial ships on the surface to save their mother planet, and the residents of Shelter No. 6, who bravely opened the door to save more survivors, are more trustworthy than those of their colleagues who were fighting at the negotiating table.
Although idealists rarely make immediate results that are visible to the naked eye, every advancement of civilization cannot be separated from the exploration of idealists.
They decided to replace the committee and become explorers of the new era.
In 2173, in the 44th year of the Wasteland Era, the second fuse incident occurred. The Ministry of Production felt that the fall of the post-war reconstruction committee was inevitable, so it unilaterally announced the Yunjian Provincial Revival Act through the already full-winged Ideal City.
The bill stipulates that the four strategic cooperative defense zones of Yunjian Province, namely Shanhai, Archipelago, Neihu and Hekou, the three urban circles of Beiyun, Shangyun and Xiayun, as well as the two industrial zones No. 1 and No. 2, are jointly owned by all survivors of Yunjian Province.
This sounds like a very gentle initiative and makes sense.
But in fact, there are other plans.
On the night of the bill's enactment, more than a dozen armed forces set out from Ideal City in the name of the enterprise and quickly took over all the research institutes of the Commission's technical department on the East Coast, as well as the remains of pre-war civilization under development.
Fierce exchange of fire broke out in some research facilities between the two sides.
The academy's armed forces were established for a short time and were not strong in combat, but due to the investment of a large amount of high-tech equipment and war weapons controlled by AI, it still caused considerable trouble to the enterprise's troops.
Although the company still won the final victory, it also led to the destruction of many research facilities.
For example, the experimental facilities engaged in the research of singularity technology, the cloze living organisms, were turned into ashes in that conflict.
This result not only led to a complete loss of the originals of the cloze-like life technology, but also caused some DNA-unstable experimental subjects to escape to the wasteland, some of which moved along the coastline, and some migrated towards the direction of the Great Desert.
And these experimental subjects that were trampled on wasteland were later mutants.
Although the conflict was in the name of Enterprise and Ideal City and there was no participation from the production department, the researchers in the Technology Department were not stupid.
Taking this incident as an opportunity, the doctor immediately announced the dissolution of the technical department. Not only did he take over all the survivors of Wandering Swamp in the name of the college, but he also permanently cut off all technical support outside the Wandering Swamp, and even deleted the database in the Great Rift Valley.
Especially the part about the coordinates of pre-war civilization ruins.
So far, the army, enterprises and colleges have embarked on the stage of history.
The Ministry of Defense, Production and Technology that completed the asset transfer.They successively threw down their historical burdens and announced their disbandment happily.
The post-war reconstruction committee, which has lost three important departments and has been operating for 44 years, has been in name only and cannot support the settlements of survivors in various places.
By the 2174th year, the 45th year of the Wasteland Era.
Facing the empty conference table, the post-war reconstruction committee finally came to the last step and officially announced its dissolution.
From now on, the settlements will no longer need to comply with the provisional constitution formulated by the Commission, nor will they need to be managed by the Commission.
In contrast, each settlement needs to find a way out and solve its own survival problems in the endless cold winter and the invasion of alien species.
In its final statement, the chief of the committee still expressed his hope that the management of the settlements will not forget their mission and rescue their compatriots around them as much as possible.
No one knew about it at the time.
Just in the fifth year after the post-war Reconstruction Commission announced its dissolution, the atmospheric environment showed signs of beginning to recover.
The long nuclear winter also came to an end in people's surprise eyes, and the declining species have resurrected on this land.
At this point, the Legion, college and enterprise entered a period of development one after another, and the Wasteland Era entered a half-century refuge era from the Commission era.
As the climate reaches the preset standard for ending dormancy, the shelters have opened their doors one after another, and the old popsicles who have walked out of the shelter have also stepped onto the stage that has become wasteland.
Although the plan deviated from the expected track from the outset, most shelters neither found the dissolved post-war reconstruction committee nor managed the things on the surface as well as they were inside the shelter.
But incompatible with this era, they still injected a shot of a heart-warming shot into the declining world for a short time, and used the knowledge of the prosperity era and the mysterious black boxes and other objects to help some wastelanders survive the dark age of the initial loss of the Reconstruction Committee.
What surprised Chu Guang was that these unknown secrets were placed on the bookshelf of the Great Rift Valley lounge for people to read at will.
What he didn't expect was that the old neighbors in the north of the alliance were once the headquarters of the Post-War Reconstruction Committee.
No... I can't say I didn't expect it at all.
Chu Guang carefully recalled the holographic image left by Dr. Principle that he had seen with Yin Fang before, and connected the clues collected by the Death Corps with it.
...In the second year of the Wasteland Era, Doctor Principle, who had been postponed for two years, went to the Great Rift Valley to meet with the comrades of the Post-War Reconstruction Committee under the escort of the 111th Orbital Airborne Division, and accompanied more than a thousand survivors outside the plan.
According to the description in the holographic image, the Great Rift Valley was already controlled by the 111th Orbital Airborne Division at that time... In other words, the predecessor of the Legion was actually the 111th Orbital Airborne Division deployed in the Valley Province?
And he also saved one of the three founders of the academy?!
Looking at these information collected by the players and the past over the past century, Chu Guang couldn't help feeling mixed feelings for a moment.
When shelter 404 was closed, so many things happened outside...
At this moment, he finally realized the mood of Doctor Method, why did that guy run to shelter No. 101 and be autistic.
If I were stabbed twice in a row by my teammate, I was afraid that my mentality would not be very good, especially if I was completely inexplicably hit by the second one.
However, from the standpoint of the disbanded Ministry of Defense and Production, they certainly have their own reasons.
‘I’m bleeding and sweating to help you open the remains, so that you can’t do the clone skills. I’ll do it myself!’
‘Anyway, you will definitely be separated in the future. Since it is an expected high-probability event, why can’t the person who takes action first be me?’
Looking at the last page in the holographic image, Chu Guang couldn't help but think of his alliance.
Both him and the league are very young, but he always gets old one day, and human abilities are ultimately limiting, and he cannot always keep up with the changes of the times.
The player's world is also moving forward, and even with the technical support of the shelter, they will progress faster than normal, and even enter the prosperity era ahead of schedule.
By then, Wasteland OL will face new challenges.
...Anyway, the alliance will not follow the footsteps of the ‘committee’.
After chanting softly, Chu Guang stretched out his index finger and stroked in the air, closing the window floating in front of him.
He always has a strong sense of déjà vu.
I seem to have said something similar before.
And at this moment, a light blue pop-up window suddenly flashed in front of his eyes without warning.
Emergency mission triggers!
Note: The morphological field device detects an abnormal individual and triggers flag6 judgment. Player ID: Luoyu The login permission is temporarily frozen.
Requirements: This task has been noted as the highest priority, and the coordinates have been updated to the shelter server map file. Please ask the administrator to recover the abnormal individual as soon as possible, and anesthetize them and place them on the B1 conveyor belt.
Mission Reward: Unlock B6 layer
This mission pop-up window hasn't appeared for a long time, and Chu Guang almost didn't recognize it suddenly popped up.
When he saw the mission reward, he was even more stunned.
B6 floor?
etc……
Haven’t the B5 layer been unlocked yet?
Why did you skip it directly?
But what he cared more about was the instructions for the emergency mission.
...Abnormal individuals?!
What's the thing?
Chu Guang was stunned for a few seconds, and came to his senses and immediately turned on the holographic computer again and ordered his cute little assistant.
Xiao Qi immediately synchronized the latest received coordinates on the shelter server to my holographic computer.
Xiaoqi: Received!
The coordinates soon appeared on the map.
It happens to be in the southern part of Luoxia Province, where the Lost Valley is located.
Seeing this coordinate, Chu Guang was even more confused.
He remembered clearly that a nuclear bomb was only bombed there a few hours ago.
Even if a player insists on trying to get over and try what it feels like to be bombed by a nuclear bomb, he won’t be able to survive if he gets a nuclear bomb, right?
Can this game still cheat?
Just as Chu Guang was wondering what was going on, a miserable wail appeared on the official forum.
Blanch Ah!
I'm counting, why don't I leave when the countdown to resurrection is over!!!
