The Void Pathfinder from the Demon Hunter World

(I would like to apologize in advance. The temperature has changed so much that Boss Gao’s plastic physique couldn’t hold up, so he took a break for a week. Normal updates will resume today. All book friends, please also pay attention to your health and keep warm.)

…

Defiance Fortress, Level 3, Communications Room.

Knight Webb drove out the clerks and communications soldiers and was communicating with Paladin Tagti at the Atlas Observation Station via long-range radio.

Weber said into the microphone: "Tageti, you are right, those people who come out of the shelter are indeed very useful. But they still lack the necessary training. I support your plan to recruit shelter residents."

"Hey, hey..."

Taggarty's somewhat distorted voice came from the loudspeaker in front of him: "I have recently learned about some situations. Even if we start to implement this plan, the results may not be satisfactory.

Hey... Vault 76 is special. The residents of this Vault are specially selected elites to rebuild the United States.

They have received the best education, including basic military training, and have been given the most technical support. They have their own mission and sufficient means of survival, and can adapt to life in the wasteland as quickly as possible.

They are different from scavengers and farmers. They do not need the support of the brotherhood, so they are not necessarily willing to join us. These 12 people this time joined because they needed to investigate the Radiant Corpse Beast..."

After listening to a long paragraph, Weber scratched his head irritably and replied: "Damn it. You should have figured out these situations earlier. I am happy for nothing. What about these people?"

"Use them first. After all, they are nominally our people now. If there is any work, they can be sent first."

Weber pouted.

"Sure enough, he has a dirty mind when it comes to tactics."

"Zi..." the voice of the Paladin came from the loudspeaker: "All for the Brotherhood of Steel!"

"Yes, yes, it's the same thing again, but you're right. Hmm... let me think about it... This time the radiated corpse beast attacked, the Alpha stronghold and the Thorn stronghold suffered a lot of damage. We need to send people to repair it and put this work How about arrangements for them?"

"Okay. Don't make it too obvious. Send a small team to follow."

"Okay, this way we can save at least one team of manpower. Taggarty, let me tell you about someone, Marvin Gee...what the hell, that's the bounty hunter."

"Gyedma, Marvin Geyedma, I know him. What's the matter?"

"There were originally a total of 4 radiated corpse beasts in this attack, but he lured one away in advance. And he killed a radiated corpse beast by himself!"

"Are you serious?"

"Yes. He threw the two hind legs of the Radiant Corpse Beast in front of me. He said he cut them off with a knife. I want to see his knife...

Farke, you can't imagine what he looked like when I was about to touch his knife. Hou Li Xie Te, can you imagine that I would be scared?

I wasn't even scared when I faced deathclaws and scorched corpses by myself, damn it! I was really frightened at the time..."

"Hey, Weber, be quiet. What the hell are you talking about. Do you believe what he said? Cut off the Scorch Beast's legs with a knife? Did you suck Jet?"

"Of course I fucking didn't. Shut up, Taggarty, and hear me out...

You are right, I believe what he said. I could see the two severed limbs clearly. They had smooth cross-sections and had been chopped off with a sharp weapon. "

Weber took off his sunglasses and rubbed his face with a headache and continued: "You don't understand. He said he did it. I believe it. That feeling is difficult to describe. Silva and Elia were also present. You can Ask them."

After a long while, Paladin Taggerty's voice came from the speaker of the communication radio station: "Is that a problem with the knife? What kind of technology is there?"

Knight Weber put on his sunglasses again, sighed, pressed the call button, and said into the microphone: "No, I saw it, it's just a metal knife, a complete metal long knife, without any energy or battery. Silva and Elia saw it too."

He sat up slightly and lowered his voice: "Do you want to control him?"

"Wait a minute, Webb, that Marvin doesn't just have force. The first time I met them..."

Taggarty briefly described the meeting at the Atlas Observatory, repeating Marvin's words.

After a slight pause, the paladin's voice continued to come from the loudspeaker: "Zila... He is not a person who only knows how to do things. He is very smart."

"Wow!" Weber asked in surprise: "Do they still teach these in Vault 76?"

"He is not the same as the people in the shelter. They said he comes from an ancient family in the northeast. I guess it may be some technology that we don't understand... or something else. He must be very well educated... I think , Catching him won’t be that easy.”

Taggarty suddenly stopped mid-sentence.

Weber knocked on the microphone in front of him and found that the green light was on and there was no problem with the machine.

He raised his voice and asked, "Tageti, what's wrong with you?"

"It's okay, Weber. We know too little about him...and..." the Paladin said with rare tangles, "What he said makes sense. Our past methods were indeed not right... If this continues, Brother Steel How will it be different from the disgusting government before the war?”

"Hey, Taggarty, you give me an order and I carry it out. Don't tell me this. You know I don't understand."

"Huh... Yes, why am I telling you this... In this way, when they go to repair the stronghold this time, they are required to bring the bounty hunter with them. Let our people keep a close eye on it and check the situation first. Their next plan depends on us."

"Anything else?" Weber asked.

"Call Silva to talk to me, and get out of here."

"Got it, sir. Goodbye, sir."

...

Marvin left the resistance fortress and took out the broken limbs of the scorched beast in an unmanned place.

[Hint: Found the remains of a mutant creature, do you want to submit? ][Yes][No]

Select [Yes]

[Hint: Submit successfully. ]

No reward again?

Recalling the last communication with the learning machine, he had some guesses.

Marvin's current attributes are:

Strength: 48

Agility: 46

Constitution: 48 (-1)

Perception: 45 (+1)

Spirit: 48 (+1)

The world consciousness of the wasteland world limits the upper limit of the attributes of local creatures to 50.

That is to say, the five attributes of the scorched beast are up to 50, so naturally there is no way to get attribute point rewards.

After arriving in the wasteland, after many experiments, he figured out some reward rules.

The difference between the attributes of the submitted creature and his own attributes is the key factor in determining how much reward to get.

The specific judgment algorithm is still unclear, but one thing is basically clear.

It is difficult for him to improve his attributes in this way here.

After thinking this through, Marvin instantly lost interest in hunting scorched beasts.

Teleport, return to the underground base, and sleep.

He hasn't had a good sleep for almost a week, and now he is very sleepy.

...

The next morning, at the Resistance Fortress, the soldiers were still cleaning up the surrounding corpses and repairing the damaged defense facilities.

Marvin and Robert Vaughn were chatting across the fence.

"... That's it, we have to set off early tomorrow morning." Robert leaned on the iron fence and looked back at the slowly rotating missile rack, and said, "They specifically asked us to call you along. However, you are not a Brotherhood soldier, so it's up to you whether to go or not."

Marvin looked to the left. From this angle, he couldn't see the purple-red wasteland in the west, but he could see the yellow-green clouds covering the sky. He asked, "Do you know the location of the two forward bases?"

"Yes." Robert opened the Pip-Boy, called up the map, and pointed to Marvin across the fence: "Here, and here."

"Both are in the red The edge of the cranberry swamp. "Marvin nodded, "Okay, I'll go with you."

Robert turned off the Pip-Boy and whispered, "Anita and I both think this is not right. We agreed that we only need to stay in the fortress for a week, why do we suddenly have to go out? What do you think?"

Marvin thought for a while and said, "Probing, or treating us as free labor, that's probably it."

"Damn it..." Robert waved his hand irritably, "Can't you just explain it clearly?"

Marvin took out a cigarette and handed it to him, lit it for him through the fence, and lit one for himself.

"Hiss... Huh, we have finally come this far, we can't just give up, right? Anyway, we won't go deep into the cranberry swamp, there is no danger, just go once. "

Robert nodded, "Okay. Oh, by the way, you can come in tomorrow morning, and you will be given ammunition. You can tell me what you need now. "

Is there such a good thing?

Marvin was not polite at all, and reported a lot of pistol bullets, rifle bullets and fusion cores.

After the two finished chatting, Robert returned to the fortress. It was almost time for them to go on duty.

Marvin went to the crater. He had built more than half of his car and the progress was very smooth.

The four forward bases in the Red Plum Swamp suffered considerable losses from the attack of the scorched beasts.

Not only the loss of personnel, but also the communication equipment and missile launchers in the forward bases were damaged and must be repaired as soon as possible.

The Brotherhood of Steel has long-range radio communication equipment. Not only can the Atlas Observatory, the Resistance Fortress, and the Thunder Mountain Power Plant communicate with each other, but the Resistance Fortress can also keep in touch with the four forward bases at any time.

Tomorrow's mission is to escort two pilots to the Alpha Base and the Thorn Base to repair equipment and replenish the troops of these two forward bases. The mission time is 3 days.

The mission came very suddenly and it was indeed not in line with the previous arrangements.

In addition to testing, Marvin could not think of any other purpose of the Brotherhood.

He guessed that it was related to himself, but he was not sure what he wanted to test. Then he would take it one step at a time.

[Task prompt: Forward base. Assist the Brotherhood of Steel and the shelter, escort two pilots and five soldiers to the Thorn Point and Alpha Point, repair equipment and replenish guards. Mission time limit: 3 days. Do you accept this mission? 】【Yes】【No】

Choose Yes.

…

The Cranberry Swamp is a large area of ​​purple-red mud, and there is not much swamp terrain.

The overall area of ​​the Cranberry Swamp is slightly smaller than the Toxic Valley and the Ash Pile, and the center is the former "future city" Watoga.

It is very dangerous here, not only because of more and more violent mutant monsters, but also because of the worse environment.

Even the edge of the Cranberry Swamp has a radiation value of 4 to 5, and humans with weaker physiques cannot survive at all.

A group of 17 people are entering the Cranberry Swamp along the road, including Marvin, two pilots, 6 people from the Vaughn team, and 8 people from a half-team of the Brotherhood.

The team is led by Knight Mira and heads north along the foot of the mountain to the Thorn Point.

The other six members of Vaughn's team stayed in the Resistance Fortress and continued to garrison the fortress.

Anyone with a discerning eye could see that the six people left behind were actually hostages to prevent them from escaping halfway.

To be honest, Marvin felt that the Brotherhood of Steel was too petty in doing this.

Anita argued with reason, but they were soldiers and orders were orders.

There are a total of 7 power armors in the escort team, 4 on the Vault Boys' side and 3 on the Brotherhood's side.

Marvin didn't wear power armor, just a Ranger helmet, so the radiation could no longer harm him.

After each large-scale attack by the Scorch Beast, the monsters in the cranberry bog will become more active.

Everyone encountered small monsters, including zombies, mire crabs, mutated insects... and there were not many of them.

Every time they encountered an enemy, Team Vaughn took action to deal with it. Mira led the Brotherhood soldiers to guard the two pilots watching the show from behind, and there was almost no communication between the two sides.

Fortunately, Denis, an optimist, is here, at least the atmosphere on the Vaughn team is pretty good...

Two hours later, Marvin's sharp eyes saw a head with curved horns and black scales from a distance.

He immediately raised his hand and clenched his fist, and shouted in a low voice: "Stop!"

The Vaughan squad already had a good understanding of each other and stopped at the same time.

Mila, a knight wearing T60 power armor, walked up and asked, "What's wrong?"

Marvin ignored her and said to his teammates: "500 meters ahead, there is only one Deathclaw. I don't know if there are others."

"Andy, you're on the right front." Robert ignored Mira and ordered directly, "Denis, you're on the left and go forward 300 meters to report the situation. The others are on standby."

Knight Mira was not angry and just watched Team Vaughn take action.

Two minutes later, Andy and Denis reported that they found only a few cockroaches on both sides, and only one Deathclaw in front, wandering in the collapsed ditch.

Robert was about to form his troops.

Mira interrupted: "Marvin, I heard that you are very good at melee combat. I don't believe it, why don't you try it?"

Damn, this provoking method is really useless.

Marvin thought for a moment, then nodded and said, "Okay."

He probably guessed the purpose of the Brotherhood, and it turned out they were here for him.

Then show them something new.

"Marvin!" Anita warned.

Although Robert was wearing power armor, he was not wearing a helmet. He also gave him a questioning look.

Marvin waved his hand: "It's okay, just let them take a look, otherwise it will be endless."

He said it without hesitation. The Brotherhood soldiers all wore masks or helmets, so their expressions couldn't be seen, but they probably didn't look too good.

Anita glared at Mira angrily and pointed her finger at her without any politeness.

"Just this once!"

Marvin put away the fixative, took out the couscous hanging from his waist, and walked forward first.

The Vaughn team followed closely, while the Brotherhood soldiers and pilots were more than ten meters behind.

When approaching within a hundred meters of the Death Claw, the monster discovered the enemy and climbed up from the ditch.

Marvin didn't look back, waved his hand and said, "Okay, just wait here."

Marvin moved forward with his knife in hand, changing from walking to running, getting faster and faster.

The deathclaw let out a roar, and the person stood up and ran towards him...

The two sides were less than five meters apart when Ma Wen suddenly dwarfed and accelerated, his sword flashing in rapid succession.

The first knife cut off the right claw, the second knife cut off the tail, the third knife cut off the leg, and the fourth knife cut off the head. The whole process took less than 6 seconds.

Marvin swung the long sword and sheathed it.

He only used about half of his maximum speed,

Compared with when he first arrived in the wasteland, he was not a little stronger, and this death claw was also two sizes smaller than the one on the island in the middle of the river.

Even though he only used half of his ultimate speed and didn't even use the runes on the long knife, Marvin still easily killed the monster.

The shelter boys had seen Marvin demonstrate his knife skills more than once, and even though this time he was more perverted, they weren't too surprised.

Denis squatted next to the monster's corpse, poked the severed limb with the barrel of his gun, turned his head and joked: "Tsk, tsk, tsk, next time Sumar barbecues, you will be responsible for cutting it, right?"

The Middle Eastern commando took off his helmet, considered it seriously, and nodded: "Well, I think it will work..."

While Team Vaughn was not surprised, the Brotherhood soldiers were dumbfounded.

Killing a deathclaw is not difficult for them.

But alone? Or chop with a knife? This is really unscientific!

Perhaps because she had been tested, or perhaps because she felt that she had gone a bit too far, Knight Mira began to change her attitude and began to have various hard conversations with the shelter boys.

Brotherhood soldiers no longer watch the show when encountering the enemy.

The two groups finally had some communication, and at least the atmosphere in the team was less tense.

…

Note ①: I looked through the published chapters carefully, and I seem to have forgotten to describe the rules for submitting creatures to obtain rewards.

This book was not revised when Tomato was released, more than once, and I forgot to fill in this detail. This detail has been added in Chapter 23 of Volume 1.

No need to go back and read, I copied and pasted it.

Marvin has also made many attempts since he learned that you can obtain attribute point rewards by submitting corpses and living creatures.

He also issued a bounty in Gos Velen and used his power to do some experiments.

Gradually I figured out the rules.

First of all, it must be a corpse of a creature that he killed with his own hands, or a living creature that he defeated with his own hands. It doesn't matter whether he uses a knife or magic.

If there are other people involved in the kill, their DPS must account for a certain proportion. The specific proportion has not been tested yet.

Secondly, at least one physical attribute of the killed creature must be higher than a certain value, otherwise Marvin will not receive any reward. The higher the attribute, the higher the reward given to Marvin.

If the monster's attributes are too low, the learning machine will not even give feedback, such as water ghosts and evil ghosts.

He did not try out the specific attribute requirements, mainly because he did not have enough time and monsters to try.

Finally, it is necessary to touch the body of the killed creature, any part will do, even fragments will do.

Only in this way will there be a prompt, and the learning machine will automatically collect all the body parts of the creature.

Marvin has not tried whether the rotten corpse can work, and there is no need to try.
