Wasteland Code Survival Chapter 122: Doctor Zombie
If Qi Lin's guess is true, is it because the invasion of the private army of the consortium led to the nuclear leak, and then all the talents in the 404 base were not spared?
Thinking of this, Qi Lin couldn’t help but move. If that’s the case, this 404 base can be regarded as a perfect base tailored for him-with a lot of materials, weapons, and for ordinary people. Lethal radiation, easy to defend and difficult terrain.
and want to control this base, the visitor's authority is definitely not enough now, as for how to increase the authority in my 404 base...
Qi Lin looked into the depths of the base. There was a tower-like building rising from the ground and connected to the underground space dome hundreds of meters high. People with a discerning eye could see it. There is the core hub of the entire 404 base.
is counting on the unreliable AI that almost killed itself, and now it’s impossible to pretend to be dead. If you want to gain control of the base, the first step is to enter the core building of the base.
This 404 base, or this city, apart from its high level of technology, the layout is completely the same as those of the small towns of the old era. Channels, alleys, shops, supermarkets, factories... Qi Lin is even still in a large On the building, I saw the signboard of "Volume KTV".
"...This is exactly a town..."
On the side of the road, Qi Lin found a vehicle similar to the old-time electric patrol car. After looking at the structure of this electric car, Qi Lin found that it still had a slot for a nuclear battery. He took out a standard nuclear battery he was carrying and plugged it in.
Although the technology of nuclear energy batteries has been very mature in the old age, most of them are used for military purposes, while it is relatively rare in civilian applications. I did not expect that a random found here looks general Ordinary transportation tools can actually use nuclear batteries.
Of course, Qi Lin started the car not to use it to travel, but to find some valuable information-with the restart of the car's power system, a touch screen under the steering wheel also lights up.
The operating system of this electric car is very brief and clear. After the boot animation, three options appear directly, namely "Navigation (Automatic Driving)", "Radio" and "Driving Record".
Qi Lin first clicked on the driving record, but it was blank. Obviously, the data was lost or it was emptied.
Since there is no one to clean the battlefield outside, Qi Lin prefers the former. After all, nuclear radiation will have a certain impact on electronic products.
Then, Qi Lin turned on the radio again, and there was meaningless current noise from the built-in loudspeaker of the electric car. The function of the radio was not broken, but in this underground space, it could be received. The band is very limited, and even if the radio can receive signals from the ground, it is meaningless. Each player's own miniature brain is much better than the radio.
Then only navigation is left. Qi Lin turned on the automatic navigation system with the last hope... Fortunately, he did not disappoint this time, and a large cluster of place names suddenly popped up on the display.
"Supermarkets, food factories, water stations, medical examination centers, research institutes, core pillar towers...etc. Core pillar towers? Should that be that?" Qi Lin raised his head and his eyes fell on the city center , Above the extremely eye-catching tower.
The depth of this underground city is nearly ten kilometers, and this tall tower is about five kilometers away from where Qi Lin is now.
"Are you sure about the destination: Core Pillar?"
"Confirm."
"Do you want to open the navigation?"
"Confirm."
"Please select the driving mode: manual driving/automatic driving."
"Automatic driving."
The electric car started to move slowly, but Qi Lin jumped off the car instead, picked up the gun, and hung it from a distance of about forty to fifty meters behind the car.
The electric car is very quiet when driving, but Qi Lin also doesn't want to sit in it and become a striking living target.
Judging from the AI at the entrance corridor and the deadly organ, Qi Lin is not sure that the city must be safe now.
Especially the core pillar tower, if it is said that such a mysterious core of the base, without any defensive measures, Qi Lin would never believe it.
However, the car had not driven out a hundred meters, so I don't know why it stopped. Qi Lin observed it for several minutes and found nothing abnormal.
"Out of power? Impossible... That is a brand new battery. According to the power consumption of this car, it can definitely be driven for a few months without stopping..."
Qi Lin walked to the side of the electric car full of doubts. At this moment, the display screen on the car flashed violently for a few times, and then two words appeared on it——
"Hello."
"?!" Qi Lin was startled, although he immediately calmed down, after looking around, he returned his gaze to the display.
Is this the AI again?
Before Qi Lin could think about it, a second line of text appeared on the display: "I am a survivor of 404 base. You can communicate with me by voice. This car has a sound receiver."
"Survivor? Didn't the AI at the entrance say that the base has no survivors?" Qi Lin suspiciously.
"It just tells you that there are no living people in the base."
"Are you a living dead... a zombie?" Seeing the words living person, Qi Lin was suddenly stunned.
"Yes."
Living dead, that is, zombies and zombies, this is a brand-new species produced by the human remaining on the ground under the action of radiation, but in fact, whether it is a zombie or a zombie, the word "corpse" is Because of the misleading understanding of them at the beginning.
The living dead are not corpses resurrected by viruses as in "Resident Evil". More precisely, they are not dead, but a kind of "abnormally evolved" human beings.
Whether they are zombies or zombies, they are new species born to adapt to the high radiation environment after the nuclear war. Although even scientists like to use "before death" and "after death" to describe the living dead~IndoMTL.com~ However, There is one thing that everyone recognizes: zombies and zombies are a kind of "creature" just like those mutant creatures.
It’s just that mutated creatures are mutated from the radiation of animals or plants, and the living dead were originally humans.
Excluding the living dead, there is actually a mutant on the wasteland, which is also mutated by human beings subjected to radiation, but the number is very small.
The bodies of the living dead also have a metabolic system, but due to mutations, they can take in energy from radiation, so they eat little or no food at all.
In addition, great power, long life span, and infertility are also well-known characteristics of the living dead.
As for the difference between zombies and zombies, it is simply that the brain of the former has been alienated and reduced to a beast dominated by instinct, while the brain of the latter is relatively intact and can think like humans.
Like the zombie Qi Lin encountered at the edge of Radiation Lake, although the brain has suffered a little damage, the autonomy and thinking ability still exist, it belongs to the category of zombies-and in Thunder City , There are also a few zombie NPCs that can communicate with human players.
It seems that this person who communicates with himself through the display of the electric car is not only a zombie, but may also be a high-level zombie with a very high IQ.
"Then can you tell me what this 404 base does?" Qi Lin asked.
The other party seemed to be silent for a while before a long string of text popped up on the screen.
"This base is a secret research organization in the old Republic. I am one of the persons in charge of this base. You can call me Dr. Wang. For specific information, I will tell you slowly when I arrive at the core pillar. You."
