Apocalypse World Reboot

Xue Lei sighed deeply: "What can I do? This kid is focusing on the two children now, as you said, since the base is so safe, I can feel relieved to keep him."

In the entire team, Xiao Wu's strength is relatively weak. He is more inclined to the scientific research type, and he is inferior to them in terms of combat skills and physique.

Xu Guozhu comforted him: "If you want me to say that Xiao Wu is also a man of temperament, those two children are also pitiful. He put too much thought on them for a while, so you don't need to be jealous, do you?"

Xue Lei gave him a hard look: "What do you know?! Xiao Wu used to have a younger brother who looked very similar to Yang Yang, but he died accidentally. The two of them were the only ones in their family. collapsed."

Xu Xian frowned: "If you say that, does he regard Yang Yang as his younger brother?"

Before that, he wondered if the little guy Yueyue had done something wrong. After all, the innate evolutionary is not so powerful, but according to Xue Lei, it is very likely that he wronged the little guy.

Xue Lei waved his hand irritably: "How do I know? He doesn't tell me anything now, he just can't pry it open like a clamshell. Let him go, anyway, just know that he will live well and not starve to death. At this time How can there be so much to care about?!"

Xue Lei knows that they are living a much better life than most people now. Which ordinary people are not struggling with the life and death of hunger and viruses?It's just that they still have the leisure to be hypocritical.

He couldn't think about it at first, although he didn't like Xiao Wu's close relationship with those two children, but after all, he felt a sense of responsibility when he saw these two children, and after all, Xiao Wu brought them back, so he didn't want to make it too stiff. It made Xiao Wu feel uncomfortable.

But he considered Xiao Wu's feelings, but Xiao Wu didn't care about his thoughts at all, and even didn't respect Xu Xian as much as before, and damaged the interests of the Xu family several times for the sake of the two children.Focusing on the two children with all their attention, it seems like they are going crazy.

Xue Lei didn't know what to say, and he couldn't open his mouth, so he simply couldn't see it. We were brothers, even if we couldn't be lovers, we couldn't be enemies. We saved each other's face so we can see each other again in the future.

Xu Jin made a final decision: "Then train well in the past few days and take on a simpler task first. I don't know if the mutated animals here are easy to kill. It will be troublesome if you encounter high-level mutated creatures."

Xu Xian agrees very much: "There are not many zombies in the northwest, but there are many mutated animals. In addition, there are nature reserves. Even if the vegetation coverage is not high, it is a thing of the past."

Several people nodded one after another. This is a good statement. Who would have thought that the meteorite virus brought by the meteorite rain that landed on the earth overnight swept the entire planet, and the laws of nature were completely disrupted. The barren and vast Northwest in the past now has something bigger than the tropical rainforest. Thick and lush flora.

Don't think this is a good thing, to put it bluntly, because of the large-scale reproduction of mutant creatures, the living space of human beings is infinitely compressed, coupled with the rising sea level, the land is submerged, and it is very likely that the entire planet will become a breeding ground for mutant sea creatures in the future. Heaven.

After diverting the topic about Xiao Wu, several people turned to the most practical issue.Xue Lei was pensive, and found a ballpoint pen to write and draw in the small book that he carried with him.

Wang Hai was a little amused when he saw it: "Brother Lei, why are you thinking about graffiti? We don't have much pen and paper, so let's save it."

Xue Lei pushed Wang Hai's curious head away, turned to Xu Jin and said, "Should we prepare a boat? Otherwise, it may be inconvenient to go out in the future."

Xu Jin understood what he meant. They saw a lot on the warship along the way. The melting of polar glaciers, coupled with the fact that the ocean was almost saturated with a large number of mutated creatures, made the sea level rise at an astonishing rate.No accidents after that, most of the land will definitely be submerged by sea water, and they can only rely on boats to travel by then.

Xu Jin didn't speak, but Xu Xian shook his head: "Where is it so easy? There are so many mutated creatures in the sea, not only fish bigger than humpback whales, but also those seaweeds that can easily kill people. Our ships don't Speaking of getting out of the sea, even if it goes into the sea, it will definitely be swallowed without any scum left."

Xue Lei looked back at him: "Then what can the Fourth Young Master do?"

Xu Xian has always known a lot of inside information. Although they are obviously protecting Xu Xian's bodyguards, they have not suffered much along the way.At most, after returning to the base, he went out with Xu Ye's team to do a more dangerous mission. At other times, Xu Xian entertained them with delicious food and drinks. You must know that their treatment is better than that of the personal bodyguards of the upper class. more than a little.

Xue Lei knew that Xu Xian was not squeamish, but he didn't think that Xu Xian, who was just an ordinary nerd, could have any extraordinary comprehension and judgment. It was probably the inside information Xu Yan gave him, but if they wanted to live a good life, it was true It also needs to be attached to the Xu family, and it also needs inside information.

Xu Xian looked at him, and said unhurriedly: "Don't worry, the higher-ups must be prepared, if the sea level rises to flood all the land on Blue Star, the Tibet base will be fine.

As for the task, just practice your skills nearby for the time being.Our current strength is not as good as those official evolutionists, so don't try our best. "

They have been able to live comfortably and safely until now, except for the various weapons that Xu Xian occasionally subsidized secretly, those things left by Xu Yan. potion.

He and Xu Jin didn't use this thing, after all, it was really flawed, and it turned out that other people were also determined not to use it.But later, the gap between evolutionists and ordinary people became bigger and bigger, and the "Nine Palaces Jue" they practiced was just one of the secret books of cultivation, and they didn't think it was unusual to see these things in the base, let alone cherish them.

Xu Xian also thought about this problem before, but he didn't have any solution. Everyone has his own ambitions. Can you force others to succeed?

He thought that Xu Yan's confession to himself before he left the base in Shanghai might mean that he had already anticipated today's situation.

Thinking of how united they were at the beginning of the end of the world, but now they are scattered.But the most changeable thing in this world is the human heart. Xu Xian has experienced a lot, so he doesn't find it strange, at most it is a pity.

But if you think about it, even if you know that there is a problem with the evolution potion, why are there so many people going forward to become volunteer experimenters if they get their hands on it?Isn't it because you can improve your strength, and have the strength and hope to survive in this apocalyptic era? !

Of course Xu Xian would not blame them, everyone has their own ambitions, and they have helped him a lot with Xu Jin's relationship before.People can't be too aggressive and look forward to Shu, or they should take it easy when they see it.

------

In the early morning of the next day, Xue Lei couldn't stay idle. They met acquaintances in the base before, they were all in the army, and they went on missions together. Not only did they look familiar, but they also had a tacit understanding.

It is not easy to go out to the base to do missions, even if there is a laser weapon, it is not very strong, this thing consumes too much crystal core, and those mutant creatures are very flexible, it is difficult to hit the vital point.

In addition to weapons, they need evolution potions, food and other living supplies, as well as monthly rent, occupancy, water, electricity, etc. that need to be paid inside the base.Generally speaking, if you can't get ten third-order crystal nuclei in a month, then congratulations, you may not be far from being expelled from the base.

The Tibet base does have preferential policies for some people, such as Xu Xian and Xu Jin. Although Xu Jin is only the adopted son of the Xu family, he has participated in the inner core of the Xu family and has a close relationship with Xu Xian. Half of the Xu family.

As for Xu Xian, needless to say, generally big families bring their families in. Xu Yan only has two younger brothers, and he also has an elder brother Xu Ye who has repeatedly made outstanding achievements.The blinding meritorious deeds added together are just a few idlers brought in. If there are people who gossip like this, then what is the use of the privileged class? Who else is willing to risk their lives and work hard?

Having said that, Xu Xian has no shortage of crystal cores, and he can still afford the monthly living expenses, and the rest can rely on space, and there is a trading market in Area C, where he can get some needed things.

Because when they entered the base, they didn't bring too many things, just a hiking bag for each person, but those compressed foods or those with a relatively long shelf life basically kept them.Because food can also be bought on the warship, at most it is more expensive, but what you pay is only the crystal nucleus.

The crystal nuclei can be processed again when they are gone, but those foods produced before the end of the world are no longer available, so no one wants to eat those foods easily.

As a result, everyone's crystal nuclei were consumed a lot, so they rushed out of the base to do missions.Originally, it was very troublesome to go back and forth to the base. Not only did it require various procedures, but it also required 24 hours of isolation and observation when returning.But in order to support the family, these procedures are necessary to undergo.

This time Xu Jin still didn't take Xu Xian out. Although he seemed to be looking at the world that had changed drastically, it was true that he had already reported to Xu Yan and was told not to leave the base casually.And the two children are about to be sent to Area C for training.

It was the first time for Xu Xian to enter Area C. These few days, he was busy getting familiar with the layout of Area D. In addition, after finally settling down, there were many things in the space that needed to be dealt with.

Area C is larger than Area A and Area B, and this is the central area. The trading area is right at the entrance, as soon as you enter the door.

Although it is underground, the buildings in Area C are also built on three floors. No matter how wide the mountain area is, it is limited after all. It is impossible to accommodate all areas on the same plane.

Because of their particularity, Area A and Area B are located in the deepest part of the base, with a very advantageous geographical location and the most stringent defense. Area C has the strongest comprehensive service capability. In addition to the trading area and training area, it is also a mission area.Xu Jin and the others received the mission here before, and after completing the mission, they will also come back here to hand over and receive the reward.

Xu Xian first accompanied Xiao Wu and the others to the training area, which was much cooler than the trading area, but still very popular.Looking around, there are quite a few underage children here, and the elderly are very rare, or rare in the entire base, because unless those old people are of considerable use value, it is impossible for them to enter the base.

After the end of the world began, nine out of ten human beings were forcibly screened out by the meteorite virus, and nine out of ten of these were unqualified weeders, that is, people who were not needed.

In fact, who decides who is not needed?The base's too cruel living conditions made it possible for many people to survive, but they were cut off from life and death, and could only wait to die or become zombies.

Everyone has selfishness. In the current situation of resource shortage, one less person means that he is more likely to survive.Don't think that advocating sacrifice yourself to dedicate others is nothing more than pale and empty crazy talk. At this time, people will do anything in order to survive.

Seeing some children reluctantly bid farewell to their parents and relatives and walked into the area blocked by the power grid, Xu Xian could only sigh inwardly.

The era they came from happened to be a transitional period, and the process of great change was always accompanied by pain like childbirth. In the face of the transformation of the planet, human beings would inevitably bleed and sacrifice.

Seeing so many children at once, Yangyang and Yueyue were also a little excited, at least the negative attitude before had changed a lot, but Xiao Wu was still uneasy, worried that other people would hurt the two children, like a mother beast protecting her cubs Be wary of everyone around you.

Seeing this flash in Xu Xian's eyes, he just didn't know, and led them in calmly.

His identity is quite useful, as Xu Yan's younger brother, a direct relative of the top leader of the base who is very talkable, these people in the training area are close to confessing him.

These reception staff used to be engaged in diplomatic work, and now they are here to facilitate communication with the children's parents and relatives.Xu Xian asked about the main situation, and the base divided the survivors into five age groups for separate training.There are specialized gymnastics coaches and evolutionary coaches. In addition, some cultural courses will be provided according to the education level of the trainees.

But this kind of cultural education has basically been reduced quite a bit. Apart from the literature class, which is to teach them to recognize characters, pronunciation, and learn to communicate, it also sums up the experience of the predecessors and has various detailed introductions about mutant creatures and zombies from the outside world. .

Fortunately, zombies will not pose much threat to humans even if they evolve again, but mutant creatures are different. There are too many types of them and they are powerful. To fight these creatures, understand their attributes, living habits and weaknesses, etc. Indispensable, after all, knowing yourself and the enemy will never end in a hundred battles.

The entire Tibet base currently has a population of nearly one million. This is the final count after counting the survivors on several lines of defense, but there are only three 10,000+ people inside the base.Among them, minors account for a small proportion, and the current statistics do not exceed 3 people, but in the eyes of educators, these people are not small.

In order to cultivate these future hopes, the base also costs a lot of money, and the necessary manpower and material resources are naturally not a small amount.

There are quite a few children like Yangyang and Yueyue in the base, most of them are the children of the base staff.These children will be divided into classes according to different attributes, and then have special teachers to guide and educate them.

There will be no more than 15 students in each class, but even so, two people are required to complete the teaching.Different from the education methods before the end of the world, children now learn how to protect themselves and kill the enemy. The indoctrination of this kind of ideology will have an impact on children, and many of them are already evolutionaries , or very likely similar to Yangyang and Yueyue, who were born and artificially bred to evolve.

In addition to these, there may be natural evolutionaries transformed under the infection of the meteorite virus, but this is a very small number, or the possibility is infinitely close to zero.

Even Xu Xian is not a natural evolutionary person, and none of the so many people he has come into contact with along the way is a natural evolutionary person.

After talking about so many evolutionary things, let’s turn around and talk about the placement of Yangyang and Yueyue, because Xiao Wu will stay here to take care of them. Xu Xian also told them about the special nature of the two children, although he didn’t reveal them. They are the products of artificial evolutionists, but they still implicitly say that they are relatively powerful evolutionaries.

The higher the evolutionary level, the stronger his strength and the greater his destructive power. What's more, children don't know much, and he doesn't even know what to do and what not to do. In this case, someone needs to be patiently guided , to help them overcome difficulties.

But not everyone is willing to accept such a small evolutionary, because it is not only troublesome but also quite dangerous, but Xu Xian has guaranteed the ticket, and Xiao Wu will stay with him, and there are familiar people who are thinking crazy. It's also unlikely to happen.

To put it bluntly, Xu Xian gave some benefits, these talents accepted Yangyang and Yueyue, but the key point was that Xu Yan had greeted them before.Don't think that this is a vegetable market where anyone can come in, let alone an adult like Xiao Wu.

After Yangyang and Yueyue began to receive training, they were also calculated on a monthly basis, and had to pay a certain amount of tuition and living expenses every month.The training area adopts a boarding system, and there will be a holiday every week, when the students can leave and go out, so there are four days of rest in a month.Although there are not too many, if you want to come to the children's courses, they will not be arranged too tightly, which will put them under too much pressure.

Because Xiao Wu is a staff member who has been arranged to come in, he has some living allowance every month and some crystal cores as compensation, but seeing how happy he is, I'm afraid he is willing to come even if he doesn't get paid.

"Fourth Young Master, thank you and Second Young Master this time." Xiao Wu said happily after taking the two children to see the environment and facilities for living and learning.

Xu Xian didn't feel anything, just patted him on the shoulder: "It's fine if you're happy, and I don't have any experience in raising children, so you need to worry about these two children."

Xiao Wu shook his head and smiled: "What is this? As long as I can be with them every day, what does it matter if I don't worry about it?"

Hearing what he said about this, Xu Xian couldn't bring himself to mention Xue Lei's disgrace, so he told Xiao Wu carefully, left some crystal nuclei and food for them, and finally said a few words to Yang Yang Only then did he leave the training area.
