If the place where Leeds and the others appeared before can be called "Wild Country Ridge", then after a few hours of trekking, Leeds and the others finally entered the "former man-made area". Let’s define it this way. I don’t know how strong the erosion effect of two hundred years of time and wind and rain is, and I can’t tell what other people have done in this area, but from the dust-covered concrete structure, they must be bare here today. There have been buildings... Moreover, the cracked concrete road on the ground and the broken overpass in the distance also suggest the same message.
However, there is still something wrong - there is too little vegetation. Like this kind of wasteland, fungi, algae, moss, herbs, and woods are generally used for vegetation reproduction, right? Two hundred years have been honest, but there is still not much here. The reason can also be guessed that it is not only humans who are affected by radiation in the war...
"War, war never changes - pain!"
"Little devil, why are you making such a deep sigh as soon as you ran out of the door, young people should be as energetic as me." Liz gave Poole, who was pretending to be aggressive.
"I think you should study Poole well and improve your personal quality." Leon said so, and took out a bottle of Nuka-Cola and a can of meat from his backpack, and went to give it to the waste who was sitting on the ground begging in the distance. Nomad... Indeed, he is the one with the best morals on the team.
"...I don't like wars involving other people, but I've always been a combat professional, and I'm here to... " Krausa didn't say the whole thing, and he revealed his identity when he said it later. .
"...Well, can't you just pretend what Dad said?" Poole always felt that the members of the traveler team were all very personal. As for himself? Um, wearing blue tights (even though I've been wearing them for over a decade) and being a pervert with them doesn't count as personality
After Leon and the grateful wastelanders inquired about the news in the town, everyone walked to Nuke Town under the leadership of Leeds. The Pip-Boy in Leeds showed the front door of the place where he inquired about Poole's father's information.
"This is...?!" Liz, who has all kinds of strange common sense, is very calm, so is Poole, who has similar things in the sanctuary, only Clausa and Leon seem surprised.
[—Tourists from afar... Welcome to Nuke Town.]Because a not-so-good-looking robot was greeting them.
How should I put it? Before, Leon and Clausa saw that the world that had been bombed by nuclear bombs was full of ruins, especially when they saw that the "city wall" of the so-called "Nuclear Bomb Town" was built with rusted iron sheets. I thought that the small pistol that Leeds traded back was the pinnacle of post-war technology in this world... If I look at it this way, I'll rub it off. You can't create a world of your own with a welcome robot placed in such a broken place, right
Although the end of the world has come here, they still feel that the technological route here is much more reliable than the technological route for developing biological and chemical weapons.
(Kakakaka) Liz waved to the guards with sniper rifles on the city wall. The guards seemed to think they were harmless and pressed the switch. The suspected aircraft engine inlaid above the town's main gate started, and the sides were rusted. The door opened slowly.
"How is it, the so-called unseen world~?" Liz laughed.
"...It's completely different from what's in the shelter," said Poole, who thought Liz was really talking to him.
"… "
"Don't pretend like you've been to this world."
"Haha, that's right," Liz just smiled in the face of the split's complaints, "This is one of the great fun of my trip, taste it well before deciding whether to follow me~"
Although there is a suspicion of pretending to be forceful, this is the truth, and it is not a "permanent teammate" if you have not experienced a complete journey with Leeds.
However, Liz was still slapped in the face by the speed of light.
"Damn it, can I stop walking with you!"
"+1"
"Wait a minute, I'm going to be a coward too! Poole, can I wait for you to inquire about the information outside the city!?"
Why is Liz so cowardly when he just finished pretending
This town has a bowl shape as a whole. People use various steel brackets to build a layer of iron houses along the wall of the bowl. This is nothing. The problem is that a nuclear bomb is inserted upside down in the center of the bowl-shaped pit. Don't say that this pit is a nonsense that did not explode with a nuclear bomb. Have you ever seen a nuclear bomb that has exploded and still retain the shape of a nuclear bomb? !
The three of them couldn't even stand the blast of a rocket launcher in the face, let alone a nuclear bomb, it must be cowardly!
"Calm down, distinguished guest from afar," at this time, a black man dressed like a cowboy with a rifle on his back walked up slowly from the bottom of Nuke Town, "This nuclear bomb has been there for two hundred years, and if it was to explode, it should have exploded long ago. Now, don't worry."
"In other words, after two hundred years of rust, it's possible for this thing to explode anytime, right? This gentleman..." Liz and the others didn't really run away, just talking... But if they were to stay here for the night, who would Also can't sleep well.
"There's nothing wrong with this statement, huh... I'm Lucas Sims, the sheriff and the mayor here. Of course, that's when others need me." The demeanor of the mayor.
"Nice to meet you, Mr. Mayor, it's a very nice town..." Liz directly ignored the wastelander outside the main gate who was aided by them. He didn't give them water if the town had water, and watched them die. Feng commented, "Of course, except for that nuclear bomb... To be honest, living with this thing, absolutely no organization will try to launch a large-scale attack on this place, it is really safe enough."
"It turns out that this may be the reason why people who were rejected by Vault 101 chose to settle here..." The mayor's self-talk made Purshen, who was almost killed by his partner just because of the extreme closed attention of the Refuge. Feeling, "However, we can't use it now. We have enough weapons for defense. If possible, I would like to find someone to dismantle it."
"I really have someone here who can... Poole, show the mayor your ability."
"Is this the rumored Pip-Boy... Ah, you are still wearing Vault 101 clothes..." The mayor seems to have only discovered this now, um, it's not surprising, he was just like the citizens below, all eyes were on The three people in Leeds were dressed so neatly that they didn't look like the residents living in the wasteland.
"Well, I just came out of Vault 101... Have you seen a middle-aged man pass by recently? He was probably wearing a white coat." Poole asked.
"If it's a man with a firm look and a different look from the other wastelanders, I remember he went to Moria's Bar... but then left."
"The bar..." Hearing that Dad had left, Poole, who was frustrated for a while, could only tell himself that he was in no hurry, and stretched out Pip-Boy to show the mayor his data proof.
"Oh, I don't know how to think about it. Pip-Boy is only something that few people can use in the wasteland," the mayor said with a wry smile. After all, this is something left over from before the war, and it is not something that is very effective. Even if there is There are not many people who will learn to use it. "But are you sure you will disassemble the nuclear bomb?"
"Although I haven't practiced it." Poole looked confident.
I have summed up the attribute tendencies of the three of Leeds (and Ada, in fact) before. As combat units, they have been systematically trained in this world. They are considered to be outstanding in this world. However, they are only combat attributes. As for academic attributes, we can only talk about them. Horrible.
Poole said the exact opposite. After all, a guy who can only fight hooligans other than using BB guns and bats to fight roaches, if the combat attributes are high, there will be ghosts. However, as the son of a scientist who is also a doctor in the shelter, he is supplemented by the materials in the shelter. He "inherits his father's business" and even in some aspects is "out of blue", and his knowledge of medical treatment, blasting, maintenance, and science has developed in an all-round way—yes , its attribute tendencies can be described as "Wasteland Xueba".
"...If you can help me dismantle the nuclear bomb, I can give you 100 bottle caps." The mayor thought for a while and finally decided to believe it.
"Well, don't worry!" Poole was still a little excited to be able to apply what he had learned at first!
"Wait... Is it better for us to call the citizens out just in case?" Leon hurriedly stopped Poole.
"You don't know, there is a new atomic religion in this town, and the object of their worship is actually this nuclear bomb. If they know that someone wants to disassemble..."
"Also, there is such a religion..." Leon thought his RPG religion was powerful enough.
Liz said casually: "It's not easy, we don't get paid, you use those bottle caps to buy food at the snack bar in town, and then send someone to tell the residents of the town, 'There's a bunch of idiot overseas businessmen delivering food outside the town. , everyone goes first, first served', wait for all the people who should leave, and Poole will quietly defuse the bomb, isn't that all right?"
"... Your Excellency is really a kind and wise man..." It's possible, although well-heeled people will not take such petty profits, such as bosses... But most of the idiots who worship nuclear bombs are poor, free food Do not take white do not take.
"Hey, what are you thinking?" Liz shook his hand in front of Poole, who was "still able to solve the problem so perfectly".
"… Um?"
"It's up to you how it turns out~ You screwed up for a while, and the three of us were beaten by the town residents after a while~"
"..." At that time, it would be the town residents who would be killed... But, "I won't be killed by such a simple thing~"
