I give the world destruction and new life

Chapter 669 Development and civil strife

Pablo Vaughan is not a fledgling rookie. Before he entered the shelter, he was also a well-known small boss of the Valentino Gang. Vaughn claims to be well-informed and has killed several people in his life. , I have seen blood, I have seen death, I have done several explosions, I have seen cars that were blown up to the sky, and I have blown down a few small board houses outside the city, and I feel that I know what destruction is.

But it's not like this. Vaughan stood at the hole leading to the surface and stood there, unable to move forward. The wild storm was like a wall, holding Vaughn firmly in place, and the whistling sound pierced through like thunder. Through the sound insulation layer of the protective suit, his eardrums were buzzing, and he couldn't even hear the alarm of the Geiger counter.

According to the information obtained by Vaughan, the place where they came out should be the former City Hall, but it doesn’t look like it. Vaughn saw the only small triangular ruin of a building, and the shadow cast by this wall The area just shrouded their exit, forming a safe haven.

As far as Vaughan is concerned, wherever he steps, there is nothing but sand, gray sand, which creaks when he steps on it.

It wasn't until he was pushed that Vaughan came back to his senses, followed Boris' figure and took a few steps forward with difficulty, a trace of tenacity flashed in his eyes.

Boris removed the suspension bracket on his body. This thing is now considered a high-end product in the Valentino Refuge. The metal used to make them is a new type of alloy that was originally reserved by the machete and used to make the barrel. The price It is measured in grams.

But now, they are just made into this seemingly untechnical suspension frame, only the tail end comes with an eight-claw-shaped edge that can pop up around, so as to increase its grip after being inserted into the ground.

Boris staggered to take off his luggage in the storm, while keeping his body close to the side of the wall. This is not the first time he has come to the surface. He is one of the first people to explore the tunnel , but as of today, he is the last one alive among those people.

"Be careful! Lean against the wall and pay attention to the windward area!" Boris shouted with all his strength, but he doubted how many of the rookies behind him heard this warning.

By digging underground passages, they explored the interior of the city for nearly [-] kilometers relatively safely, but going forward, they needed people like them to take risks.

According to the city plan, they only need to build a 'safety belt' less than 400 meters forward from here to reach the City Hall Station of the Night City subway system. Their ultimate goal is to determine whether there is still a usable underground station. space.

Boris glanced back and saw that the man named Vaughan was following behind him. He handed the luggage to him carefully, then pulled out a hanger, thrust his hands down hard, and held the hanger tightly. In the central part, feeling the gust of wind blowing through this T-shaped metal pole, he turned his head and nodded to Vaughn.

This is what they have trained countless times in the shelter. The people in front fixed the suspension frame, and the people behind, while ensuring their bodies were stable, hammered the top of the suspension frame with a shock hammer to smash it deep enough.

The length of the entire suspension frame is only 150 cm, because if it is longer, people will not be able to exert force. Except for people, no machinery can work well in this environment outside.

Vaughn nodded, and patted his companion who came behind him. The other party grasped his waist knowingly, and then Vaughan slammed the hammer towards the top of the hanger!
Boris closed his eyes nervously, but fortunately, Vaughan made no mistakes. He precisely hit the force-bearing point on the top of the suspension frame less than one centimeter square. Because of the storm, any force-bearing surface would be destroyed eventually. The weak point of the whole system, so make it as small as possible there.

Under the force of the smash, the suspension frame went down more than ten centimeters, followed by the second and third
Vaughan squandered all his limited energy in a short period of time. In the end, only a T-shaped head was left exposed on the whole suspension frame. The low height seemed to be only about [-] centimeters. Boris carefully pressed it The small switch on the side, according to the design, when the switch is pressed, the eight-claw blade at the bottom of the suspension will pop out, expanding its fixed area.

According to the description of the designers and the tests they did before, there should be obvious vibrations transmitted to the palm through the main body of the suspension frame at this time, but because of the severe storm, Boris could neither hear other sounds nor feel the suspension frame itself The shock came.

He could only acquiesce that the thing was a success, and then passed the carbon nanorope through the loop, and tied a knot around his waist.

Boris gave a signal, then continued to walk forward about two meters, took over the second suspension frame handed over by his teammate behind him, and fixed one suspension frame on the ground again.

It's just that this time it wasn't Vaughn who stepped forward again. Vaughn fixed his seat belt on the suspension frame instead of the carbon nanorope, and then made a way for the people behind him. He didn't have the strength to go on to the second one. Wearing a heavy protective suit with a fairing, every movement consumes several times the normal movement.

The teammates behind him patted him on the shoulder, and then walked forward along the carbon nanorope to Boris, continuing Vaughn's work just now.

The time passed by like this, and it took them an hour to fix the four suspension frames, advancing the forward distance by about eight meters. During this period, Boris also chose to fix himself at the position of the second suspension frame Take a break on the top, because the fifth root is the key point that really tests them.

The fifth hanger would force them out of the shelter of the windshield, leaving them truly unprotected to face the raging storm.

Boris looked at the timer tied on the inside of his wrist. According to the meteorological data transmitted from No. 0 shelter, today is a good weather. The average level of the violent storm is only fourteen. At this moment, the wind speed is about 42 meters per Seconds, showing a weakening state.

But no one can guarantee that it will definitely follow the weather forecast. After all, this storm is called fury. It has always had a bad temper, and it may suddenly explode at any time and become more deadly.

Boris prayed that if Tang Jiquan knew, he would bless the old night city people again, and then signaled everyone to take a break. This is a very risky decision, but Boris tends to take a gamble.

Their resting method is very simple. Find a suitable angle and lean against the wall. The powerful hurricane will naturally press you against the wall. The experience of grit crackling against your mask is actually kind of fun.

After about 10 minutes, Boris suddenly opened his eyes, not only him, but also Vaughan and the people next to him, the wind weakened!
"I knew I could count on you! Tang Ji, you are a legend!" Boris, ignoring the safety rules, directly unfastened his seat belt, picked up a hanging frame and stuck it against the wall, and ran to the end of the team with each team member. In front, tied the carbon nano rope around his waist again, then took a deep breath, and jumped out of the shelter of the wind shelter wall!
The wild storm overturned the man who dared to provoke him almost instantly, but Boris corrected his position by rolling and crawling, embracing the suspension frame with his whole body, and inserted it into the expected position with his weight !

Boris didn't dare to let go, so he could only yell at the people behind to find an opportunity to 'hit the nail'. He didn't know if the others could hear him, and whether they had the courage to rush forward. He only knew that if they didn't seize the opportunity, they would Humans will never conquer the surface again.

They came from the surface and have the natural right to live in the sun. Boris didn't want his child to be born in the shelter one day in the future, and got used to the life of the shelter, calling himself a shelter person.

The wild storm bit the carbon nanorope around his waist, making Boris wonder if the drag force from behind was blown by the wind, or someone was crawling forward along the rope
when!
A crisp knocking sound pierced through the whistling sound brought by the storm, with a metal-specific tremor, letting Boris know that someone was coming but he didn't dare to lift it up, he was afraid that if he changed his posture, he would be caught by the storm. Overturned.

However, Boris buried his head and waited for a long time, but he didn't see the second time. Obviously, the person responsible for smashing the nails had to bear a greater risk, and he couldn't fix himself in place!
In fact, it is true. Vaughan successfully smashed it once with that momentum, a very risky action, because he didn't even know whether he hit the hit point of the suspension frame or Boris at the moment he dropped the hammer. head.

After that time, Vaughan was blown down by the storm, and he gurgled several meters in the direction of the wind, only relying on his safety belt to not disappear directly into the hurricane.

While the companions behind the windshield wall tried their best to pull Vaughn back, someone broke through the storm and completed a smash. They practiced thousands of times in the shelter, just to be able to smash more accurately and powerfully.

Now, it's time to pay off. After the attempts of the predecessors, the fifth suspension frame finally landed safely, leaving only a T-shaped head like the other suspension frames.

Boris struggled to make a thumbs up gesture, and then crawled on the ground and continued to crawl forward. Vaughan followed him, holding the sixth hanger in his hand.

No matter what his purpose is, at least their interests are the same now, and they have to complete this journey first.

When the Valentino Vault tried to complete the connection with the Heywood Vault, Vault No. 97 in the same city was not idle.

Overseer Anthony is interrogating a prisoner, a special prisoner.

"Ivanov Mullen, this is the third time we have met." Anthony's gray hair on the sideburns looks more, but his body is still strong, wearing only a plain military green training uniform , looks much healthier than the young people in his shelter.

"You were imprisoned for committing crimes against humanity, did you plead guilty?" Anthony continued to ask clichéd again.

"I plead not guilty, Lord Overseer." Ivanov was a taciturn man with a deadpan face, apparently unrepentant for what he had done.

He is a very special prisoner. After living in the shelter for four years, he communicated with the player within a limited time in a sudden incident when a player descended on the body, and then voluntarily became a new prisoner. Body, an invisible body that is not on the monitoring list.

If it wasn't for a superhuman being under the nameless man who could recall the images in the area, they might have missed this gentleman.

"You said that I committed a crime against humanity, but where is the evidence, Lord Overseer?" Ivanov Maren chuckled, and said with a mocking face: "You and the forces behind you have destroyed the world with nuclear bombs." The whole world, killing billions of human beings, accuses me of committing crimes against humanity? Isn’t that ridiculous?”

"This is a necessary means to prevent mankind from moving towards a more tragic fate, and it has indeed succeeded." Anthony is a pure soldier, he obeys orders, obeys orders, and at the same time prefers to believe in official statements in the face of big right and wrong.

"But what about the price?" Ivanov Maren's smile disappeared, and he looked at Anthony with gloomy eyes: "I personally thank you very much, Lord Overseer, you are a kind person, and at the last moment we Refugees were put in a shelter, but I'm human too, I have family and they all died outside the shelter door, by what you call necessary means."

"I heard that in the legend of Night City, Tang Ji went from avenging his wife to becoming a rage." Ivanov Mullen said a little excitedly: "I can understand him! After they are all gone, it is torture to live alone! Every breath is painful, and every day I open my eyes, I am questioning why I didn’t die outside, with them! I am also very angry! So I want revenge!"

"The way you get revenge is to join players and try to bring them back to this world?" Anthony asked calmly.

He will not think about whether what has happened is right or wrong. He only knows that since human beings have paid such a heavy price, they must not let their efforts fall short.

"That's right! That's it!" Ivanov laughed and slammed the table hard, but the chains restrained him, preventing him from making more violent actions: "Since my world no longer exists, let the whole world Let’s all sink! Don’t even think about getting any useful information from me!”

Anthony just watched with cold eyes. He interrogated this person to obtain more information about the body lurking in the shelter. Before Ivanov was arrested, she was a very active 'politician'. No one knows how much she has developed. 'offline'.

The batch of refugees he let in because he couldn't bear it at the beginning caused considerable damage to the ecological environment inside the shelter. This incident is now becoming the reason for the violent bear gang to attack him. coup.
