Wasteland Echoer

Chapter 56: Clearing the fog (please collect and recommend)

Zhenye Empire, Staro-Uko Province, Chekavsk city, "Forbidden" neighborhood.

Brett walked quickly along the clean and tidy streets of Chekavsk. His green eyes were covered with bloodshot eyes caused by lack of sleep in the past few days.

Holding a white paper with numbers written on it in pencil and using a pen to decipher the marked messages in his left hand, Brett used his bandaged right hand to slightly ruffle his hair, which was darkened by industrial dust.

From a high slope in the neighborhood that was higher than the city's average level, Brett looked into the distance at the slowly rising sun. He suddenly felt that the things that had happened around him in the past month seemed so strange, wonderful, and even unpredictable. .

Just like the desperate words of the night god he read in "The Ancient World of All Things" and "The Book of Darkness".

Looking at the darkness that was gradually being "dispelled" in the city, Brett folded the flat message twice and put it in the pocket of his tactical trousers.

Then, he raised his head slightly and crossed his hands on his forehead.

This is a common prayer method for believers in the Lord of the Night. After more than five hundred years of development in the New Year, the entire Zine Empire, including Sokra, the old capital of Zhenetsk, and all the places where Brett and Wright are currently located. The faith of the people of Kafsk is almost entirely in Him.

Legend has it that in the Dragon Age of the first era, the Lord of the Dark Night once existed as a demon king. He once controlled the people of the Dark Night and even tempted the dragons to fight against the emerging humans.

Unfortunately, the five warriors of mankind relied on the instructions of the Creator and the Goddess of Light through the "Scorching Dream" to create five kinds of sacred objects that had no information recorded for a long time, but were related to heraldry and sealed objects to defeat the Lord of the Night.

Including the dragons who dominated everything in the Dragon Age, as well as some of the gods who had taken refuge in the Lord of Darkness, they all fell into another desolate, dark, indifferent, silent, and desperate situation.

After the arrival of the steam era, with the widespread application of steam engines and internal combustion engines, and the introduction of the electromagnetic induction theory, electricity has experienced unprecedented development.

Machines, ships, guns, and even all mechanical products that can be constructed from the mind have come out one after another. All theories about gods and ancient gods have been gradually forgotten, except for a group of people with supernatural powers who call themselves "Extraordinary" who are still insisting on exploring. Apart from the Internet, these mysterious things have gradually become silent over time.

Including the Lord of the Night, who only exists in history and mythology.

It was not until the arrival of the Wasteland Era of the Fourth Age that the Heartless and the Lost "pervaded" the entire world. Only then did magic, dragons, strange beasts, sequential gods and sequential monsters gradually receive renewed attention and gain recognition from all different races. The forces recognize them and work hard to explore them.

In order to find a way out of the wasteland world for their respective races.

Of course, they exclude the Heartless and the Lost.

After closing his eyes and meditating for a few seconds, Brett briefly eliminated the messy thoughts and pictures in his mind. He placed his hands on his forehead and then on his chest, performing a simple ritual of praying to the Lord of the Night. After repeating it three times, he muttered silently:

"Guardian of the Eternal Night, creator of the Sequence Core of Hope, defender against the scorching heat, guide to the lost leader. Lord of the Dark Night, the God of Sequence 2, I pray to you in my heart."

"Pray that order will be restored to the human world as soon as possible."

"May no innocent people be harmed again."

"Pray that Wright and I will go through the 'Blood Night' ceremony safely."

"Pray to the gods of the Silent Highlands to guide the mechanical world to the right path."

"Pray for Wright..."

Brett suddenly opened his green eyes, then closed them tightly again and continued to pray.

"Pray that Wright will be guided by the goddess of light and find the red god."

After the simple prayer ceremony, Brett's forehead suddenly oozed sweat with a strange smell, similar to a mixture of dead fish and carrion, plus the smell of filth and sweat commonly found in the bathroom.

He turned his head and glanced at the lonely larch tree, which was bound upright by a low wall made of cement.

After sighing, he walked quickly along the road with black painted railings.

Not long after, several tall buildings appeared in front of him, which looked particularly eerie but unexpectedly majestic in the hazy weather.

No. 999 of the "Taboo" neighborhood, the headquarters of the Chekavsk Military Administration.

After marching to the management center's huge fence built with barbed wire, Brett stretched out his clean left hand and punched the small iron gate under the fence a few times.

A few minutes later, the two men were dressed in pure black uniforms of the Chekavsk Legion, wearing pure black masks, with the "Chimney" city medal hanging on their chests, holding "Dark Night-01" produced by the "Light of the Dark Night" factory in Chekavsk An army man with a military rifle came to him.

"Brett from the Socra Corps. He went to store the chariot just now. Now he is returning to the accommodation arranged for us."

Brett said, handing over the member card of the Sogra Guards in his hand.

"Member of the Socra Guard, Brett?" the soldier said in less than standard Zine Empire dialect.

He raised his head and glanced at Brett's silver-white uniform. After thinking for a second or two, his eyes suddenly became more respectful.

"Oh, Commander of the Sugla Guards, please come in. As mentioned above, you are different from those who come to us from other places. The room on the 7th floor of the management office is specially prepared for you. Although supplies are scarce now, we guarantee We still have more than enough supplies from the governor of the capital.”

"Thank you for your hard work." Brett said with a smile.

Following the guidance of the Chekavsk legionnaires, Brett walked through two magnificent, industrial-style buildings with about ten floors.

About fifteen minutes later, two seven or eight-story buildings that were slightly worse than the hotels used by the Socratic nobles finally appeared in front of him.

This is a place where the Chekavsk Legion is for middle- and upper-level non-commissioned officers, people with professional ranks ranging from Akatsuki 1 to Hurricane 5.

Climbing up the stairs of the splendid legion residence on the first floor, where there were almost no people, until he reached the door of room 7057 at the end of the seventh floor, Brett coughed lightly, inserted the copper key into the door lock, and twisted it slightly. Door handle, push the door open.

"Brett?"

Wright's slightly weak voice came from the dim room.

"Why don't you turn on the light?" Brett asked concernedly, reaching out and turning on the gas light switch on the dark white wall.

"Am I...really okay?" Wright asked Brett anxiously, his right hand unconsciously pressing his chest where he could feel a strong heartbeat.

"Moros has gone to the committee here. After the battle of Migov, he has been promoted to Red Earth 2 and promoted three levels in succession. He has been waiting for this moment for fifteen years. So, now he is there. There shouldn't be much problem if we communicate for you. As for your body..." Moros smiled awkwardly and said:

"Now he should be classified as a superpower."

"Superpower?" A trace of surprise flashed through Wright's pure black eyes, followed by a burst of disappointment.

"So, you can't return to Socra, right?" Wright asked.

"The rules of Socra's army are such that no one can challenge the order. However, recently Mr. George is submitting a proposal to the Imperial Parliament to allow outstanding superpowers to enter Socra. However, the greedy fat man Holly has to give permission. Okay." After Brett finished speaking, he sat directly on the yellow leather sofa nearby and relaxed his body.

"But the doctors from the legion here checked my body yesterday. Except for detecting some magic source power, they did not find the possibility of me mutating into an unintentional person. So, thank you, Brett. If it weren't for you at the last moment, After injecting me with Potion No. 16, I'm afraid I have become an unconscious and unintentional person in the wasteland world." Wright said with a forced smile.

"To be honest, I was worried when I tied you to the chariot, and I even had a fight with Moros about it. But he and I both knew something about what happened to you. I said Wright, Migov I will tell you everything I know after the battle is over. I think this rare and brief moment of leisure is just right." Brett looked at the ceiling with the crystal chandelier hanging with a relaxed expression, lying lazily on the sofa, He supported his head with messy hair with his hands and said seriously.

"I want to know about Migov first. Why did the unintentional person arrive early?" Wright asked.

This is a very critical question. I just activated the "Red Magic Source Power" in Migov, summoned "Red-faced Hain", and briefly exchanged the power of the Silent Highland God with the "Mechanical Spirit" in the gray dream. intelligence.

In less than a day, the unintentional man easily broke through the defense line set up by Andre, and there was also the Lost One of Kayas following him, trying to drag me into the hostile camp "Church of Hope".

Weird, so weird!

Kayas came just at the time when I learned some information about the "Daughter of Tool Yuan".

coincide? Weird coincidence?

A crimson mist suddenly flashed before Wright's eyes. After staring at the gas lamp with a yellow halo for a few seconds, he finally recovered from Brett's rich voice.

"The original plan organized by Andre to go to the old farmland and Highway 49 was very successful in the first two days. Most of the materials and personnel were successfully evacuated here, Chekavsk. But on the third day, when the imperial pharmaceutical factory was evacuated, When supplying supplies, unintentional people suddenly broke into the edge of the town. I think someone should be guiding them. There must be traitors in the army or even in the city." Brett analyzed.

"Traitor? I think there must be one. Since the goals of us and the Lost Ones are the gods of Silent Highlands, there must be people who sell information to gain profits." Wright added.

"Probably. But I had already put on my equipment that day and was waiting for you to evacuate the next day. But the unintentional invaders invaded too fast, and there were only four hundred of our soldiers left, so a tragic defeat was inevitable. By the way, Migov's temporary hospital is the last institution to retreat." Brett said, breathing a sigh of relief.

Right, that's right.

Wright adjusted his sitting position on the strangely patterned sheets and thought.

Moros's military map has been read by himself. Route 57 connects Migov and Outpost B in Silent Highlands. In other words, if Kayas the Lost comes from Silent Highlands, the original plan is to take advantage of the big victory at Kofu Station. Go on the attack.

But the attack plan was advanced. In addition to the traitor informing them of the shortage of personnel, I am afraid it has something to do with starting the Gray Dream.

Kayas should be a lost person who knows the power of magic, and he himself mentioned that he has been in contact with gods. His profession is [Transformer], which is a mid-level profession, but his combat power is very strong.

Logically speaking, attacking a non-military location only requires ordinary lost people to guide unintentional people. To send Kayas here, he must have entered the gray dream and sent out some kind of signal belonging to the power of the red magic source. Address exposed.

If the situation is even more extreme, Yato and Natasha must have chosen themselves from the Church of the Lost before they died. They may know the powerful power of the red magic source that they have never touched, which can be used to stop the Socra Committee. The planned "L'lye's Dream" and the finding of the god "Daughter of the Mechanical Yuan" in the Silent Highlands were the reason why Kayas, the elite of the lost, was sent.

As for the prophecy of the decider in his mouth, I am afraid it is not the main reason.

The address was exposed, the personnel were short, and he was injured and still controlled such a powerful force, so it led to an almost fatal battle?

"The red magic source power, the gray dream, the touch of darkness, and the red-faced Hain. This is part of the red magic source power that I can touch at present. Except for the gray dream and the red-faced Hain, other parts The triggers are all unclear. Sure enough, there are still many secrets in the body that I traveled through." Wright thought to himself.

Immediately afterwards, his black eyes circled in his eye sockets before he spoke leisurely:

"Brett, I want to know what happened before I entered the city of Sugla. You know, it's only been a month since I transferred to Sugla. But because of... because of an accident, the pistol went off and I lost my previous life. Most of my memories. You said you would tell me all about me, General George, and the Lost Swamp. So, now."

"Where to start?" Brett shook his head a few times, took a deep breath, looked up at the ceiling, and said:

"Let's start with Yato going to the Lost Swamp Ruins to meet with Mr. George and your outer area team. He came to the camp with the 'Scorching Emblem' and the ancient books related to the Mechanical God of the Silent Highlands found in the swamp ruins. The day I found you."
