Wasteland Development Diary

Maria Hospital.

Ding Ye sat by the hospital bed, staring blankly at the greatsword leaning against the wall.

The scene of the Sea Fighters launching a suicidal charge against Emerald City replayed in his mind over and over.

These C-level creatures had tough scales that were difficult to break, and they were strong and fearless. They struggled to jump onto the huge body of the alien, trying to lock its movements with iron chains, but they were grabbed down by the alien like insects, some were smashed with a punch, and some were smashed against the wall like rags.

Ding Ye, who witnessed the whole process, felt horrified at the time.

He couldn't help but imagine that if he charged towards Emerald City with a sword, the result would be no different.

This was the dominance of the Dead Sea aliens on the battlefield, unstoppable and invincible. Not to mention that they could also unleash devastating self-destruction, burning everything around them to ashes.

Whoever controls the aliens, controls the battlefield.

"Hero, want to play a game?"

Awei, his fellow patient, interrupted his thoughts.

Ding Ye came back to his senses: "What?"

"Stone Bullet Rumble." Awei opened his hand, with 9 round stones with rounded edges on his palm: "Have you played this before, hero?"

Ding Ye said: "Yes."

This was a game that was popular in many places. Both or multiple parties set up their own stone bullets, and used their fingers to flick their own to hit the enemy's. If they hit, they could take away the opponent's stone bullet.

It's just that ordinary poor people use stones, and it's played anywhere. Rich people will replace them with glass or silver-plated marbles, and will build special game venues for this purpose.

"Jacob, Jacob? What's so good to look at? The battle is over, just waiting to go home, come and play a couple of rounds."

Awei greeted another patient.

That was a bone man huddled by the window, holding Ding Ye's telescopic telescope, looking at the increasingly distant Shell City.

Ding Ye used this telescope to observe the front battlefield. Maria Hospital was located on the top of the highlands on Yalong Bay, with a very good view.

The Wasteland Development Company suddenly announced the closure of Emerald City, and then the aliens started a long-distance sea raid, repeatedly defeating the enemy, then landing on the beach and quickly breaking the city... This series of developments made Ding Ye a little overwhelmed.

He was an outsider and knew very little about this place.

Fortunately, there were other patients in the hospital. Although everyone couldn't leave this alien body, it was possible to stroll between the wards.

Before Ding Ye could ask anyone, someone took the initiative to strike up a conversation.

That person was Awei. He said that he was walking well on the way back, singing songs after eating and drinking, but was suddenly hit in the ass by a car that popped up, and he bled on the spot.

He woke up in this hospital bed, fortunately his ass was saved and the injury was not serious.

Awei also introduced another patient to Ding Ye, Jacob. Jacob was here for skull repair surgery, saying that his skull had fallen out before, and he came over to have it stitched up after finding it. After the surgery, he was also resting and observing in a ward here.

"Thank you."

The bone man Jacob returned the telescope to Ding Ye.

The three of them chatted while playing stone bullets on the floor of the ward.

"What are you looking at? There are no bone girls here, and there's no battle anymore." Awei flicked his finger, and the stone bullet brushed past the edge of Jacob's stone bullet and rolled past.

"I'm looking at Emerald City."

Jacob said casually, flicking a bone finger and easily hitting a stone bullet into the bag.

Then it turned towards Ding Ye's direction: "People in Building 2 and Building 3 enjoyed watching the battle, and now they are all reveling... Some people from Shell City are following us and living in Building 4. I'm watching them."

"But wasn't Baili Gong killed by the chairman? There can't be spies among these people, right?" Awei was arranging new stone bullet positions again.

"It's not that kind of thing."

The bone man launched a sudden cold arrow at Ding Ye, but the stone bullet deviated from its trajectory and fell into the corner.

"These people are carrying a lot of shells, their property is shells. More shells mean wealth. But I found a strange thing, they keep big shells as pets."

Jacob said seriously: "Those shells will stick out their tongues and lick around. Locals like this kind of pet very much, and they will also let it lick their hands and feet. It looks so weird. Is it really that enjoyable?"

"Really? Let me see."

Awei also borrowed the telescope and leaned to the window: "It really is... so weird, the people in the city really know how to play."

Ding Ye told them: "That's a 'Ball Bead Shell', a special kind of shellfish."

"They can wrap and suppress various impurities into hard beads, fixed in the grooves under the trailers or loading boards, which is convenient for dragging and transportation. It is a consumable, and craftsmen will regularly purchase it. Although it is not very valuable, it is also a subsidy for the family."

Awei turned his head with a shocked expression, and made a boxing motion: "Hero, aren't you knights just fighting? How do you even know about this kind of thing?"

Ding Ye said helplessly: "We are not just fighting madmen, knights also need to eat."

In fact, knights can be said to be the closest enhanced people to ordinary people.

Knights are cultivated from childhood, usually not from wealthy families, because the growth of this profession is rough and dangerous, and the travels after graduation are even more dangerous.

When traveling outside, in addition to the well-known ability to fight, knights also need to have keen observation skills.

Otherwise, just the poisoning of robbers is enough to pose a life threat to knights traveling alone.

They will communicate with the locals in each area to understand the situation of local challenging targets, and some knights will even hide their identities and weapons and pretend to be ordinary people.

Knights often take on some escort or capture rewards along the way to supplement their travel expenses.

Ding Ye looked at Jacob: "Can you take me to see that chairman? I requested Dr. Da Vinci before, but I haven't received a reply."

The bone man touched his head wrapped in bandages: "Company rules, you have to have something to show off to meet the chairman."

"Something to show off..."

Ding Ye thought for a while: "I don't have any property, but you said that the Wasteland Development Company is recruiting talents with professional skills? I can recommend someone."

The bone man asked: "Is it a very powerful person?"

"Very powerful."

"Who?"

"Her name is Feng Ying, a former Beiyang knight, later worked as a pharmacist in Guanneng City, and is now unemployed. She is my senior sister."

The bone man touched his chin with a bone finger: "A pharmacist from Guanneng City, that's quite remarkable. I think it's okay, the hospital still lacks doctors, Dr. Da Vinci is too busy."

...

Before this night was over, Ding Ye suddenly received a notice from Dr. Da Vinci.

"Your application has been approved."

"The chairman is waiting for you on the roof of Building No. 1 in Emerald City, please go immediately."

Ding Ye's eyes lit up.

He picked up the greatsword and said to the two patients: "I'm leaving, see you later."

Awei was stunned for a moment, and said in a low voice: "Why don't you just forget it... I'm afraid you'll be beaten to death by the chairman."

Ding Ye smiled: "It's better to fight a master than to fight small monsters for the rest of your life."

The bone man Jacob nodded slightly to him: "If you die, I will apply to collect your body, I hope you can become a bone man many years later."

This can also be regarded as a blessing.

Ding Ye strode out of the long passage.

The latest novel is first published on Liǔ 9 Shū Bā!

In the night, the light of Emerald City shone on this floating island, appearing high above.

Ding Ye took all the suppression pills, carried his sword through the darkness, and walked to the gate of Building No. 1.

There stood a young man with a cane.

The other party smiled: "Mr. Ding, the chairman is waiting for you on the roof, please come in."

Ding Ye climbed all the way to the top in a metal elevator.

The cold wind on the roof of Emerald City was blowing, but a faint white light rose from the ground, and the visibility was very clear.

There was already someone waiting here.

The other party said: "I'm here."

Ding Ye was stunned.

The person in front of him was the black-haired man who had chatted with him and was waiting for the surgery results.

"You are the chairman?"

"I am Zhou Yi."

The other party said: "Didn't you want to fight me? While I have time now, come on."

Ding Ye's eyes suddenly turned fierce.

"What I see, I cut!"

The sword in his hand instantly glowed red.

Ding Ye's enhanced spine was instantly activated, integrated with the enhanced sword, and the whole person entered a state of full concentration.

The heart and brain were burning.

The bones were creaking under the strain.

"Break!"

He burned himself and unleashed the strongest sword he had ever used.

Zheng!

The fiery sword slashed on the opponent's raised arm, but did not cause a single scratch.

Zhou Yi just said: "Continue, don't waste time."

"Break!"

Ding Ye frantically swung his sword with all his might.

Until he was exhausted and his vision was blurred, the other party remained motionless and unscathed.

In the end, Ding Ye's body had reached its limit. He supported himself with his sword, panting heavily, and the muscles in his hands and feet were shaking.

Still not working...

Even if he took the overload to briefly enter the C-level level.

Facing Zhou Yi, who could kill Baili Gong, his attack was like a mayfly shaking a tree.

Ding Ye fought until his consciousness was blurred, completely relying on a strong breath to continue swinging his sword.

His last memory was of Zhou Yi walking over and saying: "Still fighting?"

"Fight..."

"Very good, very energetic."

Waking up again, Ding Ye found himself lying on the hospital bed in Maria Hospital again, his body aching.

The sun was shining brightly outside the window.

Standing next to him were two patients, Jacob with bandages wrapped around his head and Awei with his injured butt to the side.

"You're awake?"

Ding Ye barely supported himself to sit up, thinking silently in his heart.

Yes.

It's almost time to wake up.

The success of challenging beyond the level is just a miracle that exists in rumors.

The strict hierarchy is the real situation of the duel.

Ding Ye supported himself against the wall and went out, found Dr. Da Vinci who was doing rounds outside.

"Doctor, I'm ready, if it's possible now, please give me the surgery."
