  Fang Chang: "Calm down, you've only been here for three days. Back then, as soon as Junkie came out of the sanctuary, he dropped the call and missed several versions in a row, so he's not over it yet."

  Trash Level 99: "I'll think about it."

   The banquet at the palace has not ended yet, Chu Guang has already returned to the Heart of Steel and ordered the crew to prepare for their return.

The carrier aircraft on the    airship were piloted by the pilots of the Goblin Corps, and they all landed on the temporary runway north of the royal capital.

   They will be responsible for protecting the airspace of the royal capital, while supporting the army on the northwest side of Oasis No. 9

  Although the corps commander of the Goblin Corps was thrown to the south by him to perform the mission, he should have returned to Qingquan City by now, but it doesn’t matter whether there is that guy or not.

   Unlike other corps, the corps leader of the Goblin Corps is only responsible for making money, and does not want to spend that much effort in commanding, and sometimes he dies too quickly and has no chance to command.

The purpose of    Corps is to fly the plane if you want to fly, shoot the gun if you want to shoot the gun, shoot Zhu Yuan and calculate it yourself, ask the friendly army for the coordinates of air strike and shelling, and retreat by yourself if you are embarrassed.

In Mosquito's own words, this is called strategic disintegration. It seems that every battle is playing soy sauce, but in fact, the potential of each player is maximized, which coincides with the intention of the administrator to launch the Corps system. .

   No matter what the purpose of the Goblin Corps is, the pilots who can land the plane on the airship deck are naturally impeccable. With the anti-aircraft guns and radio guidance of the ground troops, it is not a big problem to protect the safety of the Lion City.

   King Edward was naturally very reluctant to leave Chu Guang,

   But in contrast, the officials in the court were even more reluctant.

   At the banquet, many princes and nobles heard that the manager of the alliance had not yet been married, and their minds suddenly became hot. They searched around for relationships, and sharpened their heads to try to match the female relatives of the clan to the palace, whether it was warming the bed or serving tea and pouring water.

   Even before the banquet was over, King Edward himself did not know that in the palace he prepared for Chu Guang, the servants who lived in He Hou had already changed all around.

   Even the servant who cleaned the bookshelves was replaced by the youngest daughter of the Duke's family.

   That weak look makes me worry if I can hold the ladder steady

   And the reason why this happened was just because of an untrue rumor—

  The managers of the alliance like to read books and have a lot of collections.

   However, the development of things was beyond everyone's expectations except the old king.

   Almost everyone did not expect that the administrator of the alliance did not go to the palace that King Edward prepared for him at all. …

I didn't even stay in the district for a whole night, and I went back to sleep before the meeting was over. I only knew that I didn't even stay here for a long night, and the meeting was not over yet. , leaving only a group of self-willed protectors

The    men are messed up in the wind...

  Aboard the Heart of Steel. inside the bridge.

   Looking at Commander Quan Shui, Chu Guang explained the next arrangement to him.

"Although we have achieved a staged victory, the war is far from over. Now the front has been pushed to the westernmost side of Oasis No. 9, and the farthest bunker is even 1,500 kilometers away from Dawn City, whether it is defense or future offensive. , it will be a severe test for our logistics."

   "This war cannot depend on us alone. I give you two tasks."

   "One is to consolidate the existing defense line and ensure that the autumn harvest of the Lion Kingdom can proceed smoothly. This is not only related to the food supply of the residents of Oasis No. 9, but also to our food reserves."

   "The other is to train our friendly armies and arm them with our equipment and military concepts. I will arrange for the officers of the First Corps to cooperate with you in this task."

   There is a language barrier between players and NPCs. Although there is no problem with daily communication between old players like Springs, the efficiency of training will definitely be affected to some extent.

   At this time, you need to add the cooperation of npc.

   In the long war, the alliance has evolved two completely different command systems.

   One set applies to players and the other applies to NPCs.

  Commander Quan Shui faithfully put his right fist on his chest and said with a piercing gaze.

   "Guaranteed to complete the mission!"

  Chu Guang nodded approvingly, paused for a moment, and continued,

   "Remember to promote more young officers without aristocratic backgrounds and give them more opportunities to make meritorious deeds."

  According to his observations, there are two main factions in the power hierarchy of the Lion Kingdom.

  One is the Edward faction loyal to the royal family, who controls the court and the civil service system. The guiding ideology is that the teachings of the spirit of the sand sea and the law of the ancestors are immutable.

  The other is the faction of Prince Winter, mainly in the army, composed of some generals who hold military power, and advocates conservative internal affairs and military innovation.

  The former tries to introduce alliances, check and balance the latter while driving away foreign enemies, so as to achieve the goal of "killing two birds with one stone", while the core goal is to maintain its own dominance.

   The latter hopes to introduce the military technology of the alliance, strengthen its own strength while suppressing the former, and establish a kingdom with a constitutional monarchy and aristocratic co-governance.

  Although there are differences on some issues, the two sides agree on uniting the nobles.

   Under such circumstances, there is almost no room for the lower-level officers born in the Lion Kingdom to rise as civilians, because they are not the objects of unity from beginning to end.

  What Chu Guang has to do is to cut a piece of the cake that originally belonged to the king and nobles and distribute it to these young boys

   They are receptive to new ideas, dissatisfied with the status quo, and motivated to make changes

  Isolated and helpless in both the army and the court, they can only gather the snow from the alliance, and this is the only way for them to display their political ambitions.

  The loyalty of these young officers to the alliance will far exceed the loyalty to the king and nobles. …

   This ideological bond is stronger than the rule of blood

  Any kingdom that exists in the mortal world is composed of ordinary people after all.

   After explaining the next stage of work to the officers who stayed behind, Chu Guang immediately gave the order to set sail.

  The anchor chain and elevator were slowly put away, the majestic Steel Heart turned its direction, and the output power of the propeller increased

   With a full speed of 100 kilometers per hour, it only took one night to travel from Lion City in the east of Oasis No. 9 to Dawn City of the Alliance for nearly 1,000 kilometers.

  The morning sun rose on the side of the day, and the outline of the city group was printed on the floor-to-ceiling windows of the bridge along with a touch of white in the distance.

   Looking at the growing survivor settlement on the edge of Qingquan City, the corner of Chu Guang's mouth couldn't help but raise a father-like smile.

   There are dozens of newly built houses in the commercial street to the north.

  From the north side of the trading station to the platform of the freight train was originally a wasteland, and now there is a colorful shed.

People are no longer satisfied with one "North Street", and the second market outside the planning has been formed under the spontaneous behavior of people. They are only satisfied with doing business with the trade station of the alliance, and they are also communicating with each other.

   More than just business prosperity

The achievements of the    Alliance in the field of infrastructure construction can also use the word miracle to describe the only railway that originally connected the two survivor settlements in the north and south. Now not only the road is open, but also a high-voltage electric tower has been erected

  The energy generated by just one controlled fusion reactor is enough to supply the consumption of the entire alliance

   The most direct impact of these changes is the rapid rise of industries with high energy demand such as smelting houses, and a large number of factories and workshops have sprung up on this land.

   More than 30 tanks that have just been transported from the new industrial zone in Dawn City are waiting for loading and unloading on the platform of the freight train station. There are also trucks lined up in the back half of the car, some of which will be sent to the front to be integrated into the logistics force, and the other will be sent to the trading post for buyers to choose.

   Of course, the most beautiful scenery that fascinates Chu Guang is Jianghu Lake, the farmland on the north bank.

   The rut marks left by the tracks of the Pioneer have been covered with golden ears of rice, and the overgrown wasteland has been driven to the edge of the forest.

   And all this, only one year has passed

   "Xiaozi."

   "What's the matter? Master." The energetic voice floated to Chu Guang's ears like a string of light and pleasant wind chimes.

   However, this time he didn't have any orders or instructions to issue, and everyone's work was done very well.

   is just touching the scene, and I can't find anyone to share the emotion with for a while.

  "It's nothing, I just feel that time is a thing. Sometimes it goes by so fast, a year is in the blink of an eye, and sometimes it feels so slow. It feels like a lot of things happened in a year."

  Chu Guang did not expect Xiao Qi to understand this sentence

   But what he didn't expect was that Xiao Qi actually imitated his tone and sighed, and also sighed with emotion.

   "Yes, the days with the master always feel like time flies so fast, every second is like a year when we are not together."…

   Hearing these words, Chu Guang glanced at the little guy who was sitting on his shoulders and dangling his feet.

   Since getting this new toy, this guy's been living on him.

   "I didn't leave you behind for a long time, did I?"

   "Yeah!" Xiao Qi gave a thumbs up with a confident face, her twinkling eyes like light bulbs, "Master is the best!"

  ""

   After a slight cough, Chu Guang turned around and left the floor-to-ceiling window. "It's time to disembark." "Okay!"

   reached out and grabbed the floating drone, Xiao Qi obediently jumped off Chu Guang's shoulder, and swayed into his pocket.

  Chu Guang specially told it to try not to be too conspicuous when there are people

   Those rumors and rumors about himself are outrageous enough.

   He doesn't want to be misunderstood by the melon eaters that he has any strange hobbies...

   In order to avoid disturbing the lives of the residents, Chu Guang ordered the crew to drive the airship directly into the boundary of Qingquan City and hover over the Geng Lake Wetland Park.

   As he watched nervously on the giant wall, Chu Guang took the elevator and landed at the base of the refuge.

   Before he got out of the elevator with his front feet, the sharp-eyed mosquito spotted him and ran up immediately, asking for help with a smile.

   "Dear Manager, the traitor 'Luoyu' has been arrested!"

   "In order to prevent him from running wild, we imprisoned him in the small dark room next to Neeko... It's a pity that this guy doesn't seem to suit your mount's appetite.

  Chu Guang's brows jumped, but he didn't blame this guy.

  The currently known clues can be judged that Luo Yu's body should have been given to the "storage house" by the mutant slime mold in Oasis No. 7.

  In the case of unsure whether the anomalous individual is safe, it is indeed the best choice to let Nija watch it. The powerful aura of life emanating from the Death Claw is also a deterrent in itself.

  "...I see, go ahead and do your own thing."

   "Okay!"

   Confirmed the completion of the task through v, and the mosquitoes disappeared without a trace.

  Agility is really not that fast.

   didn't care about this guy, Chu Guang went straight to Niya's nest.

However, what surprised him was that the big brother "Luo Yu" was not suppressed by Ni Zang's aura. Instead, the latter had a fearful expression on his face. Expose dangerously low

   "Luoyu" who was standing in the cell had a dull expression on his face, looking harmless to humans and animals,

   After all, it is not very smart, even if it is harmful, it is difficult to imagine how bad it can be.

but-

  The thinking pattern and perspective of beasts are different from humans after all, maybe Nizo smelled something bad from him.

  Chu Guang patted Neeko on the head.

   The latter made a purring sound and rubbed his arm, with an aggrieved expression that seemed to be asking him to keep that guy away, and also complaining that he had left himself for so long.

  Yin Fang and Heya were standing in front of the iron fence of the small dark room, looking at Luo Yu standing inside like a product.

  "It's weird..." He has things that people should have, and things he shouldn't have, but why can't he feel self-consciousness?"

  Yin Fang had a confused expression on his face.

   Standing aside, Heya folded her arms, her expression seemed to be lost in thought. …

"Well...--it's really strange, the cells formed by the slime mold mimetic seem to be part of him, I don't know if it's by changing the receptors or what, it fooled the immune system, didn't cause any rejection, and even worked The efficiency is higher than that of normal somatic cells."

  Yin Fang looked at her and asked.

   "I don't know much about mutated slime molds...I just want to know what's the difference between this and what's going on with the Bucky guy?

  Hya thought for a while.

   "The difference is still very obvious, one is parasitism and the other is symbiotic."

  Party: "Anyway, it was replaced by slime mold?"

  Hya nodded, but shook her head again.

  "Yes, and no...for example, let me give you an example, changing your arm to a bionic prosthesis, is it the same person you were before the surgery?"

   Yin Fang replied as a matter of course.

   "Of course, replacing the mechanical prosthesis is just a more efficient tool, not a brain."

  Hya nodded and continued.

   "His situation is the same, except that the replacement tool is an organism. His genetic information has not been changed, and even if all somatic cells are replaced with slime molds, he can still retain his original consciousness... At least in theory."

  Yin Fang's face showed a stunned expression

   However, he did not rush to refute, but fell into contemplation.

   "Um...you're right."

   But this is only theoretical.

  The existing theories can't give a reasonable explanation, why this guy is still dumbfounded.

   walked to the side of the two, Chu Guang asked.

   "Has the study yielded results?"

  Hya shook her head.

   "Unfortunately not... Although life science is my research direction, I always feel that the issues involved are beyond my disciplinary range."

   After a pause, she looked at Chu Guang and continued.

   "However, based on my observations over the past few days, I found a very interesting phenomenon."

  Chu Guang asked immediately.

   "What phenomenon?"

  Hya continued.

"The mutant slime molds at Oasis No. 7 are fundamentally different from the slime molds in Qingquan City in terms of the structure of genetic information. Although we call them the same term, they have actually evolved into two completely different species. ."

"For example, one of the most prominent features is that the mutant slime mold in Qingquan City transmits information through spores, and the fruiting body of this slime mold No. 7 - let me call it that way, the spores produced do not have the function of information transmission. Communication between fruiting entities requires sound waves like humans do."

  Chu Guang nodded thoughtfully.

  "My subordinates also noticed this... The slime mold fruiting bodies became noticeably more aggressive after hearing the mother's roar.."

  Yin Fang suddenly seemed to have thought of something, and his eyes lit up.

  "Could it be that there is a lack of water and organic matter in the desert? It is not possible to release spores on a large scale, and the environment of the valley is convenient for echoes to transmit information..."

"That's what I thought!" Heya nodded, with a hint of excitement in her tone, "Slime molds are extremely adaptable to the environment, which in turn means that their evolution is highly susceptible to environmental influences. Short In just two hundred years, their populations have been differentiated to such an extent that they cannot recognize each other, which is good news for us anyway!”…

   Yin Fang thoughtfully.

   "Simply put, two lumps of slime mold mothers wouldn't make a bigger lump?"

"Correct!" Heya snapped her fingers and continued with a smile, "Although there are some differences in the details, it is basically what it means. And more than that, when the differences between these mutant slime molds are large enough, intraspecific struggles will occur. It will even evolve into a kind of competition! The two sides will not exchange genetic information in a fusional way, but will fiercely compete for living space until one party completely replaces the other... But this part is just my guess, and there is not enough evidence that already."

   This is really good news and provides a new way to solve the problem of mutated slime mold

  If nuclear weapons can't destroy these nasty guys, maybe they can take the initiative to introduce benign strains to compete with malignant strains for living space.

   As for how to make benign strains more competitive, that is a problem that the researchers of the alliance need to think about.

   "Any other clues?"

  Heya shook her head in shame.

   "No... that's all for now."

  Chu Guang nodded and comforted the two of them,

   "Don't be discouraged, you've done a great job.

   It has been 4 days since I was transferred from Luoyu to Qingquan City.

   There has been no research progress for 4 days, and now he can only believe in the wisdom of the first generation of managers.

   After a pause, Chu Guang ordered.

   "...Inject him with slime inhibitor and anesthetic, and transfer to the conveyor belt on level b1 of the Vault."

  Hya asked quickly.

  "Where will he be sent?"

   "Sample bank at the Refuge? Probably."

  Chu Guang gave an ambiguous answer.

   Honestly, he didn't know what was dreaming under the refuge. Except for the last one, the manager never explained it to him, even

   I haven't even seen his face,

  Hya had a regretful expression on her face, but said nothing.

   She understood that Chu Guang would make such an arrangement.

   After all, leaving this guy out is always a hidden danger.

   "--Can I go to the site of Oasis No. 7?" Heya said in a solicitous tone, "I want to find out what's going on with the slime mold there."

  Chu Guang shook his head.

I can't agree to your request until "Slime Mold No. 7" is confirmed to be harmless, not to mention that now that the Oasis No. 7 site has been physically blocked by the people who occupy it, we can't risk the situation in Luolu Province. risk of going there to collect samples. "

   paused for a moment, Chu Guang looked at Lin Ya with a slightly disappointed expression, and continued,

  "I don't mean to leave the wreck alone, just wait until the time is right to do this."

"I promise you that."

  After injecting the inhibitor, "Luoyu" rolled his eyes, and immediately lay on the ground.

   Even the anaesthetic was saved.

   Most of the tissues in this guy's body were destroyed in the nuclear explosion, and the tissues that were still working were basically remodeled by slime molds.

   And this is what surprised Chu Guang the most. The person is still the same person.

   But why can't the resonance of the morphogenetic field be formed?

   This is so weird!

   threw the lying corpse "Luo Yu" onto the conveyor belt, Chu Guang watched the open hatch slowly close, and three lines of light blue pop-up windows quickly appeared in front of him. …

  【Urgent mission completed!】

  【Mission reward: Unlock the 86th floor of Vault 404!】

  【Extra Reward: Gene Sequence+4000】

   The moment he saw the three-line pop-up window, a look of joy flashed across Chu Guang's face.

   Good guy!

   I fell off a plane, and I fell out of 4000 test qualifications!

   And the one that fell was someone else's!

   But don't worry about the qualifications for the beta test. According to the rate of 20 to 50 accounts a day, the batch of qualifications that were unlocked last time has not been released yet.

  Standing on the elevator, Chu Guang stretched out his index finger and pointed on the touch screen, and selected the button on the b6 floor, which was separated from the b4 floor.

   Looking at the descending floor, excitement and anticipation kept surging in his heart.

   Skip b5 and directly unlock the b6 layer!

  I don't know what kind of surprise the first generation manager left him on this floor——

  The elevator arrived soon.

   However, the moment the elevator door opened, Chu Guang was stunned in place, and then he subconsciously glanced at the touch screen, thinking he had come to the wrong place.

  It is completely different from the spotless appearance of the other floors when they first opened. The situation on the b6 floor can be described as a mess.

   The air quality here is quite bad, even mixed with a disturbing smell.

   Judging from the floor plan printed on the wall, this place is different from the other floors and should be a research facility.

   The elevator is not facing the floor lobby, but a buffer car equipped with a series of systems such as air shower, positive pressure, dust removal, sterilization and so on.

   All the configurations here are the same as the set of buffer chambers at the entrance of the shelter, which can prevent slime mold and spores from invading the interior of the shelter.

   But now, this system is used by the Ministry of Heat at the entrance of the floor to "exclude" the entire floor from the shelter.

  Chu Guang frowned.

   It's not what's going on here that's suspicious, but why it's here.

   As we all know, the slime mold cannot leave the mother nest or exist independently, and this is the reason why the slime mold stops in the suburbs of Qingquan City.

   Beyond the coverage of the spores, the slime mold's viability will suddenly decline, and it will soon be broken down by other microorganisms.

   Therefore, it is theoretically impossible for slime molds to invade a completely isolated system.

unless-

   Has an independent parent body or wing cave formed here?!

   "Open the internal circulation system..."

  The visor of the helmet is closed, and the internal circulation system of the power armor starts to operate, in exchange for absolutely safe air at the expense of rising energy consumption.

  Chu Guang pulled out the hammer behind him, walked through the alloy door that opened to both sides, and stepped into the buffer zone that had been activated.

The inside of the    buffer is still intact and the equipment is still working.

   However, behind the flat door facing the b6 floor, as forbidden by the light, the whole scene was shocking.

elephant.

  The silver alloy wall is covered with chrysanthemum spots, the air is mixed with the musty smell from the nose, and the bullet holes in the wall have not been repaired.

   and scratches are faintly visible traces of battle.

   The air purification system for the entire floor has been shut down and has been shut down for many years.

   Yet even so.

   still doesn't completely kill the slime mold here.

  Even in the absence of external oxygen input, they still survived, and relying on the little organic matter, they maintained a dormancy with the lowest energy consumption, and they have survived until now.

   Several untreated corpses lay at the door of the buffer zone.

   They wear the uniforms of the guards and the damaged "Type 5" light cavalry exoskeleton.

   In addition to the shocking plaque, the moldy skeleton could not even find a piece of meat, and even the bones were riddled with holes.

   Can imagine how tragic that battle was, Chu Guang's Adam's apple moved, and the warhammer clenched tightly in his hand.

   Just when the air pressure in the buffer chamber was adjusted, the loudspeaker above his head suddenly released a broadcast that was recorded at an unknown time.

   It seemed to be a quarrel between several people.

   "The b6 floor has fallen...--The experimental body has spread out of the isolation room! The sample is getting out of control- Damn, we must evacuate immediately!"

  "Wait! The data on the experimental equipment has not been backed up to the server, at least let me--"

   "It's too late! Let's go!"
