The Void Pathfinder from the Demon Hunter World
Chapter 41: Clues to the Nuclear Bomb
The situation in the east cave B is similar to that in the cave A, except that the mine is deeper, the road is longer, and there is severe water seepage in many places.
These seepage areas are occupied by mud crab hunters and newts, which made Marvin waste some time.
Along the way, he found 5 bodies of the Knights of the Brotherhood of Steel one after another. Together with the 2 bodies in the cave A and the 11 bodies outside the mine, there were 18 people in total, which was consistent with the news he received.
At the deepest part of the mine, after drilling through a rock crack, a huge naturally formed cave appeared in front of him, with three stalactite columns supporting the cave ceiling more than ten meters high.
There were also large and small stalactite tips hanging from the top of the cave, and many of them were broken.
There should have been many protruding stalactites on the ground of the cave, but they were basically crushed by the giant beasts.
Natural light leaked from the two huge gaps in the cave ceiling, illuminating a limited range, and five or six scorched people wandered in the cave.
Marvin could see two scorched beasts, sleeping quietly.
[Hint: Found the mission location "Scorchbeast Lair", 2/3. You need to find all the scorchbeast nests to complete the mission "Scorchbeast Virus (Second Ring)". ]
This is indeed a scorchbeast nest. The stone pillars block his view, and he can't see where the cubs are hiding.
[Hint: Kill all scorchbeasts and cubs. ]
Today, we have experienced too many battles. Whether it is death claws, scorchbeasts or scorchbeasts, if you want to kill them quickly, you have to open the runes on the knife.
Although I didn't use magic much and tried to reduce the number of times I opened runes, the mana consumption was still not small.
[Energy (Chaos Mana): 663/1764]
The mana remaining is a bit dangerous, Marvin decided not to fight first, but turned around and left.
After thinking it over and over again, Marvin gave up exploring Cave C now.
Once all the scorchbeast nests are found, the mission "Scorchbeast Virus (Second Ring)" will be completed immediately, and the third ring will be opened.
God knows how long the third ring will take. Now there are still a few days before the second ring is completed. The priority is to restore some magic energy.
That night, Marvin even shortened his sleep time and meditated for 4 hours.
After daily persistent meditation, his meditation level suddenly increased to lv.8.
[Meditation: 8 + (After entering the meditation state, physical consumption is reduced by 80%, energy recovery speed is increased by 40%, mental attributes and perception attributes are slowly improved, and mental trauma and mental trauma are slowly healed)]
…
The next day, the White Spring Resort was as white as new under the early sun.
Three Mr. Handy robots were floating on the huge lawn on the west side, mowing the lawn diligently.
Two protectors were cooperating with a raider robot to fight a monster.
These robots were still following the program set before the war to eliminate any non-human creatures. They would not even actively attack the humanoid monster, the ghoul.
In the mixed-style building in the middle of the lawn, several people sat in a glass greenhouse for a meeting.
The Brotherhood of Steel claimed that they had obtained a truck that could transport the corpses of the scorched beasts. The boys from the shelter left early and had not seen the flatbed truck.
But Marvin had seen it.
The next step was to send someone from the shelter to help carry the monster corpses around for publicity.
Dennis actually had a camera. When everyone participated in the defense of the resistance fortress, he took a lot of photos, which was a good publicity material.
Another news, they got the name and location of a mine, which should be the lair of the scorched beasts.
Latin American beauty Anita Garcia was giving a summary speech.
"There are two things we need to do next. First, assist the Brotherhood in publicizing the dangers of the scorched beasts and ease the conflict between them and the residents. This is a matter that has been negotiated and cannot be shirked.
Second, confirm the source of the scorched beasts and find a way to solve this problem.
There is another thing. According to the order of the supervisor, we need to find the three nuclear missile silos in Appalachia and confirm their safety. At present, Letty and her team have made the fastest progress in this regard, and we are not needed yet."
Marvin finally heard the news about the nuclear missile silos that he had always hoped to get, but he did not rush to ask.
Anita finally asked: "Is there anything else to add?"
Marvin raised his hand and said: "The glass mine, I have found that place, I can share it with you later..."
"Hou Lixiete, Marvin, you are really awesome." Denis slapped Sumar's thigh and exclaimed, "Tell me quickly, what's the situation inside?"
The Middle Eastern guy lifted his pants and swept his pants, moving his butt away from this psychopath.
Seeing that everyone else was looking forward to it, Marvin said, "There are three mines in the Glass Mine, each of which should have a nest. I have cleared one and killed two scorched beasts and seven cubs. There should be no less than six scorched beasts and more than 10 cubs in the other two mines, but I am not sure of the exact number."
After a pause, he continued, "The scorched beasts live underground. They dig up from the bottom to the surface and take off directly, instead of going through the mines. In addition, the scorched beasts underground are more difficult to deal with. In addition, I found the bodies of the 18 knights of the Brotherhood of Steel."
Everyone was silent.
No matter what the attitude of the Brotherhood's top brass was, they were determined enough to fight against the scorched beasts, and the soldiers were brave enough...
Robert Vaughn leaned back on the folding chair, hugged his arms and frowned, and asked, "Have you found out why there are so many scorched beasts? It seems that they can't be killed."
Marvin shook his head: "No, give me some time to face more than two radiated corpse beasts at a time, and I will..."
"There is no need to take risks." Robert waved his hand, "Nothing can happen to you. Now only you can kill the Radiant Corpse Beast alone."
Marvin nodded without refuting. These messages were enough to reflect his own value.
What to do next? Let’s take a look at these people’s plans first.
Anita also frowned and said: "The Brotherhood of Steel may not believe what we say, after all, Marvin's strength is a bit unconventional."
Everyone looked at each other, not knowing what to say.
The Latin beauty stared at the floor and said while thinking: "According to Paladin Paladin Tagti, it is difficult to defeat the Scorched Corpse Beast without missile support. If they don't have more powerful individual weapons, they don't plan to send people to explore." The glass pit. That’s what I’m worried about now.”
Lily, the head of logistics, immediately said: "Letty and her team have opened the Baiquan Bunker. It is said that they have found some more advanced weapon blueprints. You can ask about it."
Marvin raised his eyebrows and asked, "Can I come with you?"
Robert slapped his forehead and said, "Sorry, I forgot, you need technical knowledge. No problem, come with me later, it's not far."
Lily turned to Anita and asked: "If the Brotherhood of Steel doesn't have many people, wouldn't it be difficult to rely on us alone? Moreover, we only have blueprints and materials to make weapons. How can we have so much time to collect materials everywhere?"
Marvin interjected: "More than that. The radiation deep in the cranberry bog is very serious, especially in the mine. If you don't wear power armor, you can't get in."
Robert counted on his fingers, "Although we have 23 people, we only have 6 powered armors. How difficult!"
Anita clapped her hands and said: "I'm going to find the supervisor! It's time to suspend those unimportant tasks, and let everyone collect materials and power armor together to build weapons. Then gather all the outstanding warriors and go to the glass mine together."
Everyone nodded.
Robert Vaughn finally made the decision: "Okay, let's do it. I'll take Marvin to find Letty, and Anita, you take two people to find the supervisor. Lily, count the remaining supplies... let's have a big fight!"
…
Letty, whose full name is Letty Hartman, is the captain of another 12-person team. The mission to find a nuclear bomb silo is one of the earliest main missions in the shelter.
Regarding this task, Leti and her team are making the fastest progress. It is said that there are likely to be three specific locations of the silos in the Baiquan Bunker, and there are even ways to open them.
The Hartman team's station is indeed not far away, on the top of the mountain just southwest of the White Spring Resort.
It is said to be a mountain, but it is actually a small hill. There is a watchtower more than ten meters high on the top of the hill.
The houses of everyone in Hartmann's team were built around this watchtower.
As Marvin followed Robert to the top of the hill, an enthusiastic female voice came from the top of the tower.
"Hi! Robert, and the white-haired boy, come up quickly."
The two walked around several houses and climbed up the tower on rusty, suspended metal steps. There are glass walls all around here, and there are doors on the glass walls. When you go out, there is a viewing platform.
There must have been people living on this watchtower before, scavengers or other residents. There are some old furniture that were picked up, and they are now tidied up.
Looking around from a tower more than ten meters high, it is really beautiful. White Spring Resort, the mountains in the distance, the snow on the peaks, and even the dry lake in the distance to the west are no longer an eyesore.
"Does it look good?" Letty Hartman leaned against the railing and turned to ask. The slightly tight blue jumpsuit showed an amazing waist and hip curve.
This is a woman with obvious African-American features, her hair is very short, and she looks like a female panther.
Marvin nodded, pointed to the dry lake to the west and asked, "Where is that place?"
Although it was dry, you could see buildings and a broken ship.
Marvin hasn't been in Appalachia very long, and he hasn't been to many places yet.
"New Gard was a lake before the war." Letty shrugged: "But it is completely dry now. It is currently inhabited by a group of super mutants."
"Thanks."
Letty turned around and rested her elbows on the railing, curiously asking: "Are you really that powerful?"
Robert had given Marvin a good blow just now, and he had to awkwardly come out to look at the scenery. A few minutes later, Letty Hartman followed him out.
Marvin looked at Xingad from a distance and replied: "I am a lone hunter. I always have to know something about everything to live long."
Seeing that Marvin was unwilling to talk more, Letty got down to business.
"Meet Letty Hartman, Vault 76, working to rebuild Appalachia."
After speaking, she stretched out her right hand.
Marvin also stretched out his hand and shook his hand lightly, then let go.
"Marvin Geidema, bounty hunter, I hope I can help you."
"Thank you." Letty responded with a smile. She is really a very enthusiastic person, which makes Marvin a little uncomfortable.
Afterwards, Letty put away her smile and said, "I heard your matter mentioned by the supervisor and Lily. Since they all trust you, I will also trust you for the time being. Is it okay?"
"no problem."
"Okay. Our next mission is at the White Springs Bunker, right next to the White Springs Resort. We spent a lot of effort to get in. You are so lucky."
At this time, Robert also walked out, stretched out and said: "Hartman, it's difficult for us too. We have killed several big guys like the Scorch Beast. Marvin really helped a lot. "
Letty glared at him angrily.
"I'm negotiating, don't mess with me. Also, Letty, don't call me Hartman."
Robert raised his hands in surrender, turned around immediately, and went into the house to talk to a man wearing black-framed glasses.
Marvin turned around and leaned on the railing and asked, "What do you need me to do?"
"White Spring Bunker belongs to the Enclave, you should know that."
Marvin nodded.
"That damn Enclave needs someone of ours to be promoted to general in their promotion system before they can get the position of three nuclear missile silos."
"Promotion? Are there any clear rules?" Marvin asked.
"The rules are not complicated, just complete the tasks assigned by Modus. Modus is the main control artificial intelligence of the White Spring Bunker. The tasks are not difficult, but very troublesome, and I have to run a long way every time. Everyone helped me to complete the tasks. It took more than ten days for me to be promoted to captain."
When Marvin heard "artificial intelligence", he became more concerned and asked, "What are the tasks?"
"There are all kinds of tasks, repairing lines, assisting defense, retrieving data, etc., which is annoying. So, if I can get more powerful guys to help, I will not let it go."
Marvin nodded: "That's no problem for me."
We have to go into the White Spring Bunker first, but we can't be impatient. He asked calmly: "When will it start?"
"Wait a minute, I have to ask Robert's opinion. You are still his man now." Letty said and went into the house to talk to Robert.
Marvin leaned on the railing of the observation deck to think about things until Robert waved him in.
Robert solemnly declared to Letty: "Let's make a deal first, just one week." He turned around and agreed with Marvin, "Just one week, we have something else to do, you know."
Marvin nodded.
"Yeah!" Letty Hartman cheered softly, "We are going to the White Spring Bunker to hand in the mission in a while, you can come with us, we need to register first, it's very troublesome."
She turned and waved to Robert Vaughn: "Soldier, you are useless now, bye."
"Heh, snobbish woman." After complaining, Robert ran down without giving the other party a chance to quarrel.
...
The White Spring Bunker is really close, and the entrance is at the garbage dump on the south side of the resort.
This time, there are 5 people including Letty Hartman who went in with Marvin.
In the garbage dump, two Mr. Handy were cutting the corpses of crazy zombies and beasts in the garbage bin. These are the most common types of garbage in the resort.
There was an inconspicuous metal cover on the wall on one side of the garbage dump. Letty opened it and pressed the numeric keypad inside.
With his superhuman vision, Marvin saw the 6-digit password clearly and wrote it down quietly in the memo of the learning machine.
The cement wall slowly moved away, and the metal security door inside also opened with a click.
Behind the door should be a room for security inspection, with a security room and some security inspection equipment. However, since there are no living people, these things are no longer useful.
At the other end of the security room is another security door.
Letty took out an access card and said as she walked: "Marvin, I was not talking nonsense before. We worked hard for almost a month for this access card."
Marvin nodded: "I believe that it is not easy for each team."
Another team member took over and said: "Yes, the work given by the supervisor is too difficult."
Letty swiped the card in the card slot next to the security door, and the security door opened. The laser grille behind the door also changed from red that could not be passed through to light blue.
Marvin touched the security door when he passed by. It was a bit thick. It was not impossible to cut it open with a knife, but it would be a waste of blue.
Behind the door was a long sloped passage with some damaged walls and a lot of garbage on the ground.
At the end of the passage was a huge square cement space, and Marvin saw a very familiar gear-shaped shelter isolation door.
A man's voice sounded in the underground space: "Ah, welcome home, Captain Hartman, and all the Enclave partners."
Letty explained to Marvin: "This is Modus."
"Oh, there are new members. Welcome to the real White Spring. Believe me, this will be your favorite place."
Letty swiped the card again on the operating table in front of the huge isolation door and pressed the red button.
The huge gear with a diameter of about 4 meters and a thickness of about 1.5 meters slowly retreated and rolled, revealing the real White Spring Bunker, which can also be called the White Spring Shelter.
