Chapter 367.2: Invitation From Shelter 101's Administrator
Chu Guang nodded and waved to signal them to not be overly formal.
"I came here mainly to deal with the affairs of Camp 101. Continue working at your own pace, no need to make a big deal of welcoming me." After he spoke, Chu Guang turned his gaze to Jiu Li standing beside him, briefly introduced his identity and work, and then left him in charge.
As for Chu Guang himself, he walked towards the military camp directly opposite Daybreak City.
The New Alliance's Second Corps was stationed in the camp and they were led by Liu Ding. They were responsible for the security of the station, railway, and the nearby Daybreak City.
Meanwhile, the fuel rod previously confiscated from Gold Fang was also stored in the camp, with Yin Fang in charge of the repair work.
It had been half a month since that day.
A couple of days ago, Chu Guang had heard from Yin Fang that there had been progress, so he took the opportunity to check it out.
Following the soldiers of the Second Corps, Chu Guang arrived at the warehouse where the fuel rod was stored. The building was easy to recognize because it was the only concrete structure in the entire camp.
Other tents were built far away.
Although controlled fusion was theoretically very safe, and Helium-3 posed no safety risk even if leaked, while they also couldn’t power the fusion reaction by relying on a fuel rod, everyone still wanted to stay away from it.
Seeing the tense expressions of the soldiers beside him, Chu Guang smiled. "Don't be so nervous, why don't you go back first, you can leave me here."
Hearing Chu Guang, the soldiers obviously misunderstood his intent. One of the soldiers straightened his back and said solemnly. "Sir, we are not afraid of death, we are just concerned about how safe that thing is! Please allow us to stay by your side!"
His idea was simple. If an accident happened, at least they had to get the administrator out.
"I don't doubt your loyalty, but that thing is not as dangerous as you think." Chu Guang gently patted the soldier on the shoulder. "Wait for me at the door."
The soldier hesitated. But ultimately, it was the administrator’s command, so he and his companion stood together and gave a crisp salute. "Yes, sir!"
Without lingering at the door, Chu Guang pushed it open and walked in.
Inside, the fuel rod, already assembled, stood in the center of a room full of parts.
Standing beside the fuel rod, Yin Fang held a tablet with a data cable plugged in. His index finger was rubbing his chin vigorously and he seemed to be thinking of something.
Hearing the noise at the door, he turned his face and immediately showed a look of surprise. "Huh? Which wind has the ability to blow you all the way here?"
"I just happened to be passing by and came to see how your research was going." Chu Guang said with a smile, casting an appreciative glance at the fuel rod in the center of the room. "It looks like you've got it handled."
Yin Fang proudly raised an eyebrow. "That's right, as you can see. Although that idiot almost dismantled the fuel rod, fortunately, I could still find all the parts. Speaking of which, you came just in time, I just reassembled all the parts yesterday and you came immediately...”
From his exuberant expression, Chu Guang could see that he was also very satisfied with the masterpiece he had completed over the past half month.
Tossing the VM modified tablet onto the table, Yin Fang continued proudly, "I checked it again today, and I've basically ruled out any software and hardware faults. Now I'm just waiting to fix that reactor, and we can plug this thing in... How's your communication with the engineers at Camp 101 going?"
Chu Guang nodded with a smile. "They're already preparing for this work. If nothing goes wrong, the reactor should be able to restart soon after the power grid in Daybreak City is completed."
Long ago, Chu Guang had discussed this matter with the mayor of Camp 101.
When the New Alliance's construction team first arrived at Camp 101, they had already sent engineers, who, with the help of players, found the emergency reactor deep in the subway tunnel.
Although the rebuilding period was still uncertain, according to those engineers, it shouldn't take too long.
Neither the war 200 years ago nor the war 2 months ago had damaged that reactor in the slightest. It was only because of the long passage of time that some aging parts needed to be replaced.
Chu Guang was not too anxious about the matter.
After all, Daybreak City wasn’t even properly constructed yet. There was no need for a power grid, and only a few factories had been moved over.
Being able to complete the reconstruction of the power grid and the relocation plan for the industrial zone by the end of the year and integrate the repaired reactor into the grid would already be quite an achievement.
"It seems you already have a plan, so I won't worry about it." Having wrapped up his work, Yin Fang spoke with a satisfied expression.
"I plan to return to the shelter tomorrow morning... By the way, are those samples we brought back from the city center still there?" As he spoke, it was difficult to hide his excitement.
Long ago, he had been coveting the evolved specimens that the Bull and Horse Squad had brought out from the center of Clearspring City.
In Yin Fang's eyes, those were living fossils left from the pre-war era! They were priceless treasures!
They were not only well-preserved structurally, but even their operating modes had been preserved in a biological form by the slime molds.
For an archaeologist who had spent his life digging up pre-war relics, anyone could imagine how attractive those samples were to him.
Looking at Yin Fang's eager eyes, Chu Guang couldn't help but laugh. "They're still there, Hyrja just extracted the slime mold tissue from the evolved Slime Mold. She didn’t touch anything else.”
"But I bet when you get back to the shelter, you won't care about that pile of junk..."
"That's impossible!" Yin Fang shook his head without hesitation, "Junk? Do you know what those things are?"
Looking at his expression of certainty, Chu Guang just calmly smiled and continued, "Recently, a group of people from the Enterprise came to the northern suburbs. We got a set of 0D-10 Dragon Cavalry Exoframe from them. Aside from a noticeable crack on the left arm, the overall structure is intact, Even the reactor and batteries are undamaged..."
"Where is it?!" Before he could finish speaking, Yin Fang interrupted him.
His fervent gaze made Chu Guang pause. The last time he saw the same expression on Yin Fang’s face was when they first picked up the holographic recording of Dr. Principle.
"It's in the shelter..."
Before Chu Guang could finish, Yin Fang grabbed the jacket on the table, threw it on, and hurried towards the door. "Just find someone to watch the fuel rod. Lock the door and don't let those clumsy outsiders touch it!"
"I can't wait until tomorrow, I'm going back to the shelter now!" Yin Fang yelled as he got further and further.
Watching the quickly disappearing figure at the door, Chu Guang stood stunned for a long time before coming to his senses. A strange light flashed in his eyes.
Although he had expected Yin Fang to be excited upon hearing the news, such an exaggerated reaction was beyond his expectations.
An exoframe that could be repaired was certainly valuable, but was it that exaggerated?
Walking to the warehouse door, Chu Guang glanced into the distance. He saw that the guy had already run off and was probably heading straight for the train station.
The two soldiers on duty at the door were also looking in the direction of the camp, muttering to themselves softly.
"I told you that thing emitted radiation!"
"Look at that guy, he must have gone crazy!"
The misunderstanding seemed to have deepened for a strange reason...
But it didn't matter, it might not be a bad thing.
Chu Guang cleared his throat lightly as he emerged.
Seeing the administrator standing at the door, the soldiers immediately shut their mouths. They straightened their backs and pressed their hands tightly against their trouser seams.
Not blaming them for being distracted, Chu Guang simply gave the order. "Find someone to lock this door. Without my command, no one is allowed to approach."
Relieved, they saluted in unison.
"Yes, sir!"
As Yin Fang turned into a foreman, urging the station staff to hurry up with the unloading, the queue at the entrance of the First Hospital in Daybreak City stretched into a long line.
Actually, most of them were players.
In the eyes of the residents of the New Alliance, that was definitely a rare sight.
It was well known that shelter residents never went to the hospital. Minor injuries and illnesses were treated in the nurturing cabins, and they were usually healed the next day.
As for incurable severe injuries and terminal illnesses... They seem to recover after disappearing for a couple of days.
And indeed, that was the case.
Those players weren’t there to seek medical treatment, but to undergo modification surgery!
The high-end goods produced by Ideal City were unaffordable for them, but those bionic limbs produced by Boulder Town, valued at several thousand chips, were still within reach for some wealthy players.
Although Yin Fang had been away from the shelter for half a month, he wasn't the only one capable of performing bionic modification surgeries.
For example, the surgeon in the operating room from Shelter 117.
Although a bit old and with shaky hands, he had a background as a biologist. He had dissected many animal specimens, and had received medical training.
Replacing arms and legs wasn't as complex as implanting chips in the brain. Those simple surgeries were not difficult for him.
The surgical equipment purchased from Boulder Town, although not as professional as that of Shelter 117, did not affect its use.
Looking at the continuously refreshing stream of surgical requests in the system, the old man wearing a surgical cap sighed and couldn't help but complain. "I don't understand, you have a healthy arm, why would you want to remove your own arm and replace it with this thing?"
Next to the operating table, on a mobile stand, lay a nearly new mechanical arm.
Although it had all the joints a normal arm should have, the blade folded inside the forearm looked bizarre no matter how anyone looked at it.
Even if it was to enhance combat effectiveness, self-mutilation like cutting their arms off was too extreme.
However, the blue coat didn't care about his opinion and had already voluntarily climbed onto the operating table. In fact, there seemed to be a flame burning in his eyes.
Crazy fucks!
"I hope you will cherish your body more; after all, it's what your parents gave you." Seeing that there was no way to communicate, the old man sighed, picked up the scalpel from the tray, and looked at the assistant helping him. "Go close the door."
Outside the hospital.
Garbage, wagging his tail, looked enviously at the long queue of people and those brothers who had changed into new equipment. "Damn, why can't I change my limbs too?"
Passing by, Irene happened to hear his complaint and couldn't help but stop and retort. "Maybe you don't have enough intelligence attribute?"
Garbage immediately snapped, "Damn! My intelligence is not low, okay!"
"Not low? Isn't it just 3 points?”
“FUUUCK!" Garbage, frustrated and with his teeth itching, couldn’t form a proper reply.
Posting a screenshot of his attribute panel on the forum was the biggest mistake of his life.
Standing next to Irene, a newbie named Gugu Bro looked at the endless stream of people entering the hospital and suddenly had a strange thought. "What about those parts they replaced?"
Garbage smirked and seized the opportunity to get back at him. "Usually, we find a place where old Irena can't see and bury them."
"Scram." Irene rolled his eyes. "I admit I'm curious, but I wouldn't go as far as to eat limbs...”
"What a waste..." Gugu Bro suddenly sighed. "According to the game settings, you can be considered an awakener after LV10, and awakeners should be pretty awesome, right?"
Irena glanced at him. "What are you planning? You can’t roast those things."
"Of course, it's for money. It's a pity to roast it," Gugu Bro said regretfully, "After all, it's the parts of an awakener! Arms and hands aside, eyes, liver, kidneys... How much could they be worth?"
Garbage was stunned. Irena was also shocked and both of them stared at the newbie with their jaws agape.
Holy shit! His thoughts were too freaking radical!
