The secrets about the residents of Vault 404 are actually no secrets at all.

Officials at the ministerial level and above in the entire alliance, and even grassroots staff in some special departments, have long been accustomed to some of the incredible abilities displayed by "anjia".

Including telepathic communication, including resurrection from the dead, and more.

Although these rumors have not become a widely circulated consensus in the public perception, and have been submerged in many more outrageous and deviated urban legends, most Wastelanders who have been dealing with players for a long time still have it in their hearts. I feel a little bit——

These bluecoats who are incompatible with the wasteland may not just be incompatible with the wasteland.

It was as if they were not from this world at all.

Based on this understanding, most of the alliance's senior officials and relevant grassroots personnel have mixed emotions about the identity of "residents of Vault 404."

Respect for sure.

Even if they can be resurrected after death, it does not mean that the sacrifices of the residents of the shelter are insignificant.

However, people are always afraid of unknown things. After all, no one knows why they do these things.

Therefore, rather than respect, it is more appropriate to say "awe".

Yin Fang was not the first person to ask about the confusion in his heart. He Ya had actually raised similar confusion before.

But maybe it’s because of the different professional fields.

Compared with things like resurrection from the dead that can barely be explained by "scientific", Yin Fang was even more shocked that players could ignore communication barriers and exchange information.

Especially when he discovered that this kind of information exchange could span a distance of five light years, his mood could no longer be described as shocked. It could be said that his knowledge was shattered.

"...Actually, I don't know how to explain this problem." Chu Guang sighed leisurely.

"I should have said that I am not the only manager of this shelter. There should be several others before me, but I don't have any information about them."

"My authority was directly granted by the first-generation administrator. When he handed this shelter over to me, the clues he left behind were only a few recordings and a few small pieces of paper."

Yin Fang looked at Chu Guang dumbfounded and was stunned for a long time before he managed to squeeze out a sentence.

"He just handed this refuge to you?"

"Yes, it sounds nonsense, right?" Chu Guang said in a joking tone, "Actually, I also think he should find a more professional person to take care of this facility, but sometimes I can't help but think, maybe This is the best arrangement.”

He has actually met a lot of professional shelter managers.

Whether they met face to face or from the manager’s diary. Whether it is from the first generation, or it is inherited from the previous generation like myself.

Although these people face different problems, they all have one thing in common.

That is "alienation".

Whether passive or active, they almost inevitably alienate themselves into another existence that is superior to all living beings.

This does not mean that they have physically transformed into another species, but that they have lost the ability to empathize with humans.

Chu Guang himself had actually encountered the same problem, and even the feeling was particularly strong due to physical alienation.

If it weren't for deliberate moderation, he wouldn't even have to speak, just a look could make people cheer or kneel.

But that was something he didn't want to do.

"...Well, I actually don't care much about what you said. I don't doubt that the first-generation managers here made the best arrangements." Yin Fang sighed after a moment of silence and continued, "I just want to Know how this kind of information transmission across spatial distances... and even across time is achieved."

Chu Guang said with a smile.

"Actually, don't tell me it's you. I'm also very curious. How about setting up a scientific expedition team to do some research?"

Yin Fang was stunned for a moment.

"Is this...no problem?"

Chu Guang said in a casual tone.

"I never said this is a subject that cannot be studied in depth. Besides, it also helps us understand ourselves."

Before, he was always waiting for the first-generation managers to take the initiative to confess to him the secrets that he didn't know.

But since that guy handed over the b7 layer and a series of permissions to him, there has been no sound for a long time.

Perhaps he should discover the secrets of this sanctuary himself instead of waiting.

Not to mention Yin Fang, he himself was also full of curiosity about this method of communication that ignored time and space.

Unexpectedly, Chu Guang would nod in agreement, and Yin Fangzheng showed an ecstatic expression on his face.

"Thank you for your support! You may not believe it, but I have a strong intuition in my heart... We might discover new physics!"

Looking at the excited "chief scientist of the alliance", Chu Guang couldn't help but say in a teasing tone.

"Don't expect too much. Since we have already used this technology, I think someone has discovered it long ago."

Yin Fang said with a smile.

"That's not important. Rediscovering forgotten knowledge is also a kind of discovery."

"Haha, I'm glad you think so," Chu Guang said with a smile looking at Yin Fang who was in high spirits, "I'll think about what information I can provide you with..."

After closing his eyes and thinking for a while, Chu Guang suddenly felt something in his heart and opened his eyes.

"correct."

Looking at Yin Fang, who was leaning over to listen carefully, he explained the concept he heard in a recording a long, long time ago.

"As for the name of the subject, let's just call it 'morphogenesis field.'"

In a certain forest on the planet Gaia, Ye Shi, who was wearing a gaming helmet, woke up from his power armor and was shocked by the scene in front of him.

I saw a group of graceful girls kneeling beside his bed.

They were wearing clothes woven from hay and holding pottery containers with water in their hands, as if they were planning to wait for him to bathe and wash himself.

Those green faces were like green apples just picked in the morning, and their quiet and dignified temperament was so different from other primitive people that Ye Shi's heart beat a little faster.

Although the aesthetics of primitive people cannot be flattered, after all, these little green men did not come down from trees, but most likely "came down from the sky and climbed back into the trees". Therefore, even according to human aesthetic standards, their The appearance is definitely not ugly.

There is even a bit of wild beauty.

As for the emerald green skin, although it is a bit weird, it is quite pleasing to the eye after looking at it for a long time.

Especially the breasts.

It's unbelievable that such a huge fruit can hang on those petite and exquisite branches.

Ye Shi suddenly realized that he was not much more noble than primitive people.

He actually has some special aspects of worshiping primitive people? !

At this moment, a "haha" sneer came from the communication channel.

Ye Shi felt a chill on his back, and suddenly realized that the action recorder on the power armor was still connected to the Internet, so he quickly straightened up from the bed while sitting upright.

"What are you doing? Hurry, get up quickly?"

The girls couldn't understand what he said and just looked at each other blankly.

An older girl, who might have understood a few words, took the lead to get up and spoke in a less standard human couplet than the player.

"The priest... ordered... us... to take a bath."

This guy probably wanted to help him take a bath.

Ye Shi quickly refused.

"That's not necessary."

The girl blinked.

"But it's like this in heaven."

Ye Shi almost choked on his saliva when he heard this.

He could figure it out with his toes. This was definitely a secret made by the leaders of these primitive people on the legend about the ancestors.

In order to support justice, he spoke righteously.

"Have you ever been to heaven?"

Several girls exchanged blank glances, not sure whether they were expressing that they had never been there or simply not understanding.

Ye Shi continued.

"Heaven talks about equality, but that's not the case here... at least, generally speaking, it's not like that."

His tone sounded absolute at first, but then he suddenly thought of the debt-ridden guy, and his tone suddenly became hesitant.

In fact, to be honest, talking about equality among primitive tribes is a very stupid thing, but this was not originally meant for them, but to please someone floating in the sky.

The girl who could understand what he was saying nodded, but somehow she stumbled out of her mouth and said something that Ye Shi didn't expect.

"You...want...to help us? Wash?"

"puff--"

After hearing this, Ye Shi almost spit out a mouthful of old blood from his nostrils, and quickly waved his hands to clarify the explanation.

"No, that's not what I meant."

You can understand me!

wrong--

Looking at the girl with an expression that seemed to understand something, Ye Shi suddenly came back to his senses.

What he just said in a hurry was Chinese, and the last word "wash" that the girl said was also Chinese...

But the problem is, he doesn't have this word in the whole sentence.

Ye Shi was completely confused and couldn't figure out what was going on.

When the girl saw his reaction, she also showed an uneasy expression on her face, as if she had done something bad and begged for forgiveness.

Just when Ye Shiyi was confused, Jiang Xuezhou's voice came from the communication channel again.

"Ye Shi..."

The hoarse voice had a slight tremor, and Ye Shiyi suddenly panicked when he heard it.

"Xuezhou, please listen to my explanation——"

"No, listen to me first!"

The tremor in the voice seemed not to be due to anger, but to excitement.

Jiang Xuezhou took a deep breath and spoke slowly while suppressing the shock in his heart.

"I suddenly discovered just now... that they actually don't know how to speak human language at all."

"What's the meaning--"

As soon as Ye Shi asked this question, he suddenly realized something and had a look of astonishment on his face.

As if confirming his guess, Jiang Xuezhou continued speaking at a gentle pace.

"Remember carefully, when you first met them, when did the priest named Sagui speak to you for the first time..."

How the hell do I remember this——

No, wait!

Ye Shi intuitively had an idea flash in his mind, and blurted it out almost subconsciously.

"After my first words to them?"

When the old man saw him, he knelt down on the ground and babbled a lot, but he didn't understand a word of it.

It wasn't until he asked them to get up that the old man said a word.

"Yes, after you said the first sentence, or after you expressed your willingness to communicate, they immediately understood what you said and acquired your language..."

After giving an affirmative answer, Jiang Xuezhou continued to express his analysis in a calm voice.

"The previous priest named Sagui, the leader named Tunnan, and the girl in front of you... what they mastered is not the human couplet, but your language. In fact, they don't know a word of human couplet at all. , every word they know is read from you!”

A feeling of extreme fear crept up Ye Shi's back. Looking at the confused eyes in front of him, he suddenly felt that the iron bump on his head was like paper.

It's not papery in the physical sense.

But in a spiritual sense.

Those pairs of eyes seemed to be able to penetrate his armor, even through his face, and directly touch his soul.

Swallowing hard, Ye Shi still couldn't believe this incredible ability, even though he himself had that kind of perception that made others feel incredible.

"...But, I didn't say that I was called 'Ancestor?' They told me this word."

Jiang Xuezhou continued in a calm voice.

"But you can still understand the meaning of the word accurately, can't you? I know what you want to express. He knows the words you haven't said from you, right? This is what surprises me. They The ability displayed is not just as simple as language talent, but another ability on top of that... telepathy? resonance? brain wave modulation and demodulation? Or some unknown high-dimensional energy field? In short, it's As a result, they read something in your mind and invoked it."

Sweat dripped from Ye Shi's back.

"...What the hell is this? Mind-reading? Damn it?"

Jiang Xuezhou took a deep breath and said.

"I don't know. I have never seen such a thing in the wasteland... But in the current situation, I can tell you clearly that she knew the word "wash" out of thin air. I can testify that you never said it once , after all, even I don’t know what this pronunciation means.”

It seemed that worry scared Ye Shi.

When he said this, Jiang Xuezhou paused for a moment and continued.

"Actually, you don't have to be so afraid... I feel that they don't fully understand their abilities. And judging from the results, this abstract ability does not bring them obvious combat effectiveness or productivity advantages, otherwise they would not It’s such a primitive life.”

"Then do they already know that I am actually..."

Ye Shi was about to say something about pretending to be a ghost, but he didn't dare to think any further, for fear of being read through by the girl with big watery eyes in front of him.

Jiang Xuezhou said patiently.

"I don't think so. All they can read is probably the information you want to convey, so you don't have to worry too much about your thoughts being seen through by them, unless it's something you express clearly..."

After a pause, she continued.

"But my advice is, it's always better to be careful...especially when you're going to say something."

In other words, try to say as little as possible what you mean, and try to think about what you say when you say it?

Thinking of the girl's wrong reaction before, Ye Shi couldn't help feeling a little hot on his face and coughed dryly.

"I see."

Not sure if it was because he was still angry, but after finishing his business, Jiang Xuezhou said "Haha" in the communication channel, and then disappeared.

Ye Shi didn't know how to coax her, so he could only focus on work for the time being.

Looking at the girls who had been left alone for a long time, he cleared his throat and said in a serious tone.

"In the future, no one is allowed to enter my room without my permission... no one is allowed."

Seemingly confirming Jiang Xuezhou's conjecture, the older girl who was suspected of having "strong perception" indeed understood what he said and spoke in a respectful tone.

"As commanded."

She turned around and gave some instructions to the other girls, and then the group took their things and prepared to leave the room.

Ye Shi suddenly thought of something and stopped them again.

"Wait a minute, you stay."

The older girl blinked and pointed her finger at herself. Seeing Ye Shi nodded, she handed the things in her hands to the other girls and left them in the room obediently.

There were only two people left in the room.

Looking at the curious girl, Ye Shi gathered his thoughts for a moment and spoke slowly.

"I just came back to this land, and I was surprised by the changes here. Many things are different from before, as if we have never been here before."

"I want you to tell me everything you know about what happened after we left, and what happened to you."
