Infinite Metaverse

Fu Qinghai and the others followed the eyeball robot to the tallest and largest building in the center of the town.

There is an endless stream of people coming and going here, and it is as lively as a bar. Upon closer inspection, it turns out that the first floor of the building is a gun shop.

Technically an arms store.

After all, not everyone has spare money to spend time in bars. Surviving in the cruel apocalyptic wasteland is the most important thing. It is not surprising that the business here is better than the bar.

Fu Qinghai and the other three stepped into it. The first thing placed in the display cabinet was several sets of power armor from the radiation universe, ranging from T-45 to T-60. The people at the table in the bar probably bought the arms together. Power armor in the shop.

Looking at the price tag next to the display cabinet, it was much more expensive than the power armor that Fu Qinghai had assimilated into himself.

A complete black shop.

After a second thought, I can understand that assimilation points are something external to the body, and reincarnation is a priceless treasure. In a biochemical and nuclear explosion wasteland full of radiation and viruses, a set of power armor is the best and most suitable equipment.

Someone nearby was introducing to the reincarnators that the Jacobstown Arms Store provides rental services for them to choose from:

Because spending points to buy power armor, after leaving the reincarnation world, you have to pay money to the main god to assimilate it, which seems very uneconomical. If the reincarnation person has no money or is unwilling to take away this set of power armor, then return it to the arms store, arms store Part of the assimilation points will be refunded depending on the wear and tear of the power armor.

Renovate, repair and recycle.

He is quite business-minded and worthy of being Chinese.

In addition to power armor, there are also a variety of wasteland weapons that are full of patchwork and modification styles, ranging from close combat weapons such as knives and gloves, to pistols, rifles, submachine guns, mines, rocket grenades, laser weapons and electromagnetic coil weapons.

Only plasma weapons are not sold.

There's always something special, isn't there?

There are many people here, the environment is noisy, bargaining between buyers and sellers, reincarnations discussing uses and collecting money... Rare weapons have even developed to the point of requiring on-site bidding and auctions.

Fu Qinghai and the others squeezed through the crowd and followed the eyeball robot to the second floor. The second floor clearly belonged to the offices of the town officials. There were terminals and printers here, as well as busy clerks. They seemed to already know that Fu Qinghai and the others Even though people are coming, they are still immersed in the matters at hand.

A blond woman in a white shirt and hip skirt came over, spread her hands gracefully, and said to Fu Qinghai:

"Welcome, sir. Boss Zhao is waiting for you on the third floor. Please follow me."

Everyone took a special elevator to the third floor.

Apart from the heavily armed bodyguards, there were not many people waiting here. The three of them were arranged to sit down on the old sofa, with coffee and hot tea placed in front of them.

The office door opened, and with the sound of heavy footsteps and the soft sound of armor clashing, a tall figure wrapped in power armor came out.

"Hello, Space Marine."

A familiar husky voice.

It turned out that he was the person who talked to Fu Qinghai on the radio station.

"Hello, Master of Jacob's Town."

Fu Qinghai looked at the visitor.

The power armor on his body is different from the model sold in the arms store on the first floor. It is a personal weapon after all and will not appear in the arms market.

X01 power armor is the best mass-produced power armor in the Fallout series. In addition to inheriting the advantages of the previous T-starting power armors such as nuclear power, full sealing, and internal circulation, the biggest improvement is that it is immune to EMP electronic pulse attacks.

In the background story of radiation, a certain country successfully developed a "humanoid tank" project, which once turned the tide of the war and even tried to counterattack the other side. As a result, the soldiers wearing T-series power armor were directly wiped out by the opponent's electronic pulse weapons when they were crossing the river. Faced with this problem, the military immediately began to improve it. As a result, by the time the Enclave finally developed the X01, the first power armor of the X series, the war was "over".

"I should have invited you to come and talk about it when you first came to Jacob's Town. Forgive me, we are a small and poor place with little information. It took us a long time to figure out what Warhammer 40K is and what It’s a Space Marine.”

The other party slowly sat down in front of Fu Qinghai.

There was a self-effacement unique to Chinese people in his words.

The reincarnation forces that can occupy the entire Radiation Basin to do business cannot be said to be "poor and small".

Fu Qinghai took off his helmet and said in Chinese:

"You're too polite, Boss Zhao."

There is no need to hide it. The owner of the town must know everything about the three of them in the bar, including their true appearance.

"Haha, I'm very happy to meet my compatriots here. Come and drink some hot tea. The radiation-aged Pu'er has very local characteristics."

The other party also switched to Chinese, with a bit of warmth in his hoarse voice.

The only strange thing is that he never took off his helmet.

Fu Qinghai did not urge him, nor did he use clairvoyance or force perception to explore the other party's true face. Instead, he started chatting with the other party on this topic.

"Speaking of which, I still have many questions about Jacobstown. I hope Boss Zhao can answer them for me."

"You can say whatever you want, but Zhao can tell you everything he knows."

…

Through an in-depth conversation, Fu Qinghai had a general understanding of the situation in the northern part of the mainland.

The name of this basin, a masterpiece of nuclear bombs, was the "Glowing Sea", but Fu Qinghai guessed it right.

Although it is called "sea", it is actually relatively dry. It describes the large amount of radioactive material remaining here, like a glowing ocean.

Although the strong radiation cannot kill the biochemical zombies, it can make the zombie monsters inside feel uncomfortable. Therefore, this vast basin can avoid the disturbance of viruses and zombies to a certain extent, and has become a gathering place for reincarnations.

Zhao Jianming, Boss Zhao, came here from the radiation universe many years ago and discovered the commercial value contained in it——

Provide a shelter and supply station for the reincarnated people suffering from the Resident Evil movie universe.

The unique technology and survival methods of the Radiation Universe, especially for the environment of the doomsday wasteland, may not be very effective in the normal reincarnation world, but they are very suitable in this Radiation Basin.

So he dropped the anchor of the world.

They also moved the entire reincarnation club here.

"Boss Zhao, I don't understand. Although the Glowing Sea has its own special features, the Resident Evil movie universe is already a reincarnation world without any plot lines or major events. No matter how much money is made, the development potential is not as good as that of Radiation The universe, right?”

Fu Qinghai raised his own questions.

"Alas, Qingshan, you don't know something."

Zhao Jianming sighed.

"I am a Chinese, but the place where I came to the radiation universe is the North American continent. The Enclave Organization, the Brotherhood of Steel, the New California Republic, Caesar's Legion... It is very difficult to survive in the cracks of the indigenous forces of these reincarnated worlds. Radiation. The universe is not like the main Marvel universe, where there are many reincarnators. As long as there is a choice, who wants to live in the wasteland?"

"But what I know best is the Fallout series of games."

Zhao Jianming helplessly spread his hands.

The background setting of the Fallout series, like Warhammer 40K, overlaps with the historical development process of the real world, and then begins to become irrelevant during a certain period of time.

The plot of Warhammer 40K, starting from 011.M02, which is 2011 AD, goes in a different direction - the beginning of the second new era.

The background story of the Fallout series, in short, is that two superpowers fought a nuclear war, fighting to the point of mutual destruction, and turning the earth into a doomsday wasteland.

Although the nuclear war destroyed all countries in the world, and also destroyed national consciousness and national consciousness, after all, he was once one of the two warring parties. Zhao Jianming, a Chinese, must not be easy to get along with in North America.

But Fu Qinghai was still a little confused.

He observes the level of technology in Jacobstown.

Unlike the Weyland Yutani Company in the Alien universe, the scientific research power in the Fallout universe is more like the Resident Evil game universe, scattered in the hands of different organizations. The scientific research organizations before the war alone include: Sanctuary Technology, Poseidon Energy, Ripcon Aerospace, Roboco Industries, and a lot more.

The Enclave was the shadow government of a certain country before the war, and it was also the most powerful organization after the war. Zhao Jianming claimed to know about the Fallout series of games, and even got the latest model of power armor developed by the Enclave. Can't he still survive?

The Enclave believes in pure human beings and wasteland residents who reject radiation mutation and virus mutation. It is not impossible to join them if they try hard.

Fu Qinghai didn't speak, but the expression on his face already expressed his doubts.

Zhao Jianming saw this expression and said helplessly:

"You know more about radiation than I thought, and I can't hide it from you."

He slowly took off his helmet.

Revealing an ugly face that looked like it had been severely burned.

The nose is a hollow surrounded by flesh.

"Ghoul?"

Fu Qinghai said in surprise.

Zhao Jianming turned out to be a corpse ghost.

Ghouls have nothing to do with virus infection. They are a kind of creature that some humans have been transformed into after being exposed to excessive radiation for a long time. They are divided into two categories: rational ghouls and crazy ghouls. The difference is whether they have normal thinking or not.

Due to the impact of radiation, the skin and hair of the corpses look like burn victims. At the same time, their facial organs, usually the nose, have also fallen off, and their vocal cords have also become hoarse due to the impact of radiation. No wonder Zhao Jianming's voice is so powerful. "resolution".

Sure enough, the wasteland is not that easy to mess around with.

Fu Qinghai finally understood now.

The brains of sane ghouls are no different from ordinary people. However, due to the influence of some pre-war horror movies, and the fact that some sane ghouls occasionally transform into mad ghouls, most residents of the wasteland always treat sane ghouls with suspicion. There is an attitude of rejection, and few wasteland residents will accept them instead of treating them as monsters.

This is the real reason why Zhao Jianming can't survive.

"In the early days of my arrival, due to the lack of equipment to resist radiation, I suffered a lot of radiation. Later, I drank nuclear moonshine and woke up as a ghoul."

Zhao Jianming's tone was calm.

It seems to be telling something ordinary.

Jiang Yixia's eyes showed sympathy.

Not only was he rejected by the humans around him, but it would also take a long time and a big heart to accept his ugly appearance.

"Sorry, I didn't know..."

Before Fu Qinghai finished speaking, Zhao Jianming raised his hand to interrupt:

"No need to apologize. Since I wanted to make friends, I should have shown my true colors from the beginning. I kept it hidden, but it seemed that I, Mr. Zhao, was not upright enough. Haha, use tea instead of wine and punish yourself with a drink."

He poured himself a drink and then said with a smile:

"Once I accepted this identity, I found that things were not that bad. The nervous system of a ghoul is completely different from that of humans. No matter how many strengthening potions I take, I will not become addicted. In addition, I have the special characteristics of longevity, self-healing and immunity to radiation. Ability, if it weren’t for the inability to have children, I would even like it a little bit.”

Fu Qinghai nodded.

I was quite impressed by this man.

It is not easy to accept oneself becoming a monster, especially a reincarnation with three lives. Zhao Jianming not only accepted it calmly, but also finally assimilated the bloodline of this ghoul.

Of course, Fu Qinghai also knew that Zhao Jianming's overtures to him were not just because he was his compatriot. There were other Chinese-looking reincarnations in the bar, and Boss Zhao did not meet with him specifically.

The other party must have spent a lot of effort to find out where he came from, and knew the power of Warhammer 40K and Space Marines before he showed such a frank and enthusiastic look.

There is nothing wrong with that.

Fu Qinghai said in his heart that I am much more powerful than ordinary space warriors, and the Leman Russ tank is not his biggest reliance. The people in the tank are actually more capable than the tank.

After understanding the doubts in his mind, Fu Qinghai turned the topic to the bounty mission in the bar and said:

"Boss Zhao, since we've got straight to the point, let's talk about Deadpool. I'm quite interested in the tasks inside."

Zhao Jianming waved his hand and said:

"The bounty mission is open to everyone, including you. I have promised you that you can enjoy the same treatment as other reincarnations. Once the mission is completed, the points will be distributed in full. Integrity is the foundation of our foundation. I will definitely not break my promise."

Fu Qinghai said:

"I want more specific information, Boss Zhao."

Fu Qinghai's eyes were quite meaningful:

"Because as far as I know, neither super mutants, extreme sulfur ore, nor radiated zombies are original things in the Resident Evil movie universe..."

Zhao Jianming hesitated and said:

"Well, to tell you the truth, the first mission actually has something to do with me."

"The super mutant gang that occupies the southeastern valley is actually one of my former subordinates. Later, he broke up with me over the distribution of profits and led a group of his super mutant brothers to break away from the society."

"They blocked several passages from Jacob's Town to the outside of the basin. The reincarnators from outside can't come in, which makes it difficult to do business in the town. The reincarnators inside can't get out, and they're arresting them everywhere. The reincarnators are forced to inject the FEV virus and turn the reincarnators into one of them to expand their strength."

Fu Qinghai asked:

"Do those greenskins have many weapons? I think the town has plenty of armed forces. It shouldn't be difficult to wipe out a gang of gangsters, right?"

Zhao Jianming laughed and said:

"Qingshan, I don't know if you have your own club. You'll understand when you get to my position. It's hard to lead a large team. After all, we are all old brothers who used to be fighting each other. Now we have to fight each other and we can't make a killing move. , we can only use other people’s hands to clean up the door.”

Don't mean what you say.

Fu Qinghai thought to himself.

Why issue a mission if you really can't do anything?

Fu Qinghai suspected that many of Zhao Jianming's subordinates might have sympathy for the former teammates who had broken away from the club, so it was not convenient for Zhao Jianming to kill them personally.

Who is doing the dishonest thing?

Fu Qinghai did not go into details, but asked:

"What about the radiant corpse monsters and lichs?"

"That guy, that's an outsider. I don't know why he dropped the anchor of the world here. In short, he refused to talk and refused to leave. He used some kind of corpse control method of necromancy to control the body. The queen of the radiated zombie monster is under control, and she indirectly controls the entire zombie group, becoming the king of the mountain."

Zhao Jianming waved his hand and said nonchalantly:

"The main reason is that that guy will keep resurrecting. It's very troublesome to die and resurrect again, and our town lacks the means to deal with spirits and magic, so we want to ask other reincarnators to see if there is any way to restrain magic. "

"That's it, I know."

Fu Qinghai nodded, understanding.

What I was thinking about was:

Boss Zhao, I’m asking about the radiation corpse monster and the lich. Lich, you explained to me where the radiation corpse virus came from. You haven’t said it yet...

But Fu Qinghai neither asked further questions nor was he in a hurry to complete the reward mission now. Instead, he chatted with Zhao Jianming about what he had seen and heard in the town.

Fu Qinghai said:

"I saw in the parking lot outside the town, there were two flying motorcycles from the Star Wars universe."

"Hey, those are two ownerless motorcycles. If you like them, I can sell them to you at a discount."

Zhao Jianming waved his hand generously and said.

"Oh, how should I say it?"

Fu Qinghai looked willing to hear the details.

Zhao Jianming explained:

"Three young men from the Star Wars universe drove a flying motorcycle to the town some time ago. They were bragging to people in the tavern. They were so awesome. They kept talking about how awesome and invincible Star Wars was. They robbed Tatooine. He has used spices and killed white soldiers in Skako, but he has seen the world."

"To sum it up, there is a core logic: Star Wars is a galaxy-level IP, while Resident Evil is only an earth-level IP, so Resident Evil is garbage, and it is not as good as Star Wars in any way."

"Then what?"

Fu Qinghai asked.

Zhao Jianming curled his lips:

"When my patrol found them in the desert outside the basin, the three people had turned into three zombies wandering in the desert. The flying motorcycle was parked next to it, but no one was driving it, so my people The motorcycle came back."

"It seems that he was bitten by a zombie and was trying to rush to the town. However, the virus broke out halfway and he turned into a zombie. He could only wander around in the desert."

Zhao Jianming shook his head:

"The ignorant are fearless."

Fu Qinghai nodded in agreement:

"really."

Fu Qinghai believes that he has been able to survive until now. In addition to the rich knowledge he gained from extensive exposure during his work, the only remaining thing is a sense of awe.

A big truth that has been told badly.

The more you know, the more you feel your ignorance.

The more ignorant a person is, the more fearless they are.

Fu Qinghai always remains vigilant and awe-minded about things he doesn't understand. Because he doesn't understand the anime "Fullmetal Alchemist", he didn't plan to let Lust come on board in the first place. It was based on this vigilance. psychology.

"Fine."

After talking to this point, it felt like there was nothing more to talk about. Fu Qinghai stood up and said to Zhao Jianming:

"Those two flying motorcycles are too small and I have no interest in them. Boss Zhao can keep them for himself."

"As for the bounty mission...just leave it to me."

Zhao Jianming nodded and stood up to see off the guests:

"I wish you a triumphant return. I'm waiting for your good news, Qingshan."
