Where is the Taoyuan in the wasteland

Chapter 120 Second Contact

Back in the city, they called Li Ran and the others over, and told the story of the deal, and these guys were stunned when they heard it.

"Are you really going to let those... radiated corpses live with us?"

"The leader wants to divide them. After all, they have lived underground for so many years. Some people want to return to the ground, and some don't."

Wei Wei had just raised the question, and Li Ran already understood Ni Si's intention.

God knows how many radiated corpses there are in this underground world.

Since these guys retain their wisdom, it means they know how to use weapons.

If they had survived before the Wasteland Era, their combat experience would have reached nearly a hundred years.

If it can be recruited, then it is a very good source of soldiers.

If it is their enemy, then the price of destroying them is not low.

"There is no water source underground, and next door is an abandoned city with more than [-] ghouls on the ground, and an unknown number of radiated corpses underground... So, why did we choose to build the city here?"

Wei Qi spread his hands, even if Taoyuan City can't live, it doesn't have to come here to build a city, right?

"Then have you ever thought about where we can build a city other than here?"

"Vicky, any place with a water source must be fought over. With a radius of one hundred miles, excluding Taoyuan City, this is the only place where a city can be built."

Ni Si asked back, and Xun Ze who was next to him couldn't help but explain.

Two months ago, the ruins of the wine city could have been captured.

Now that side is occupied by Songcheng, in the past it would have been equivalent to a full-scale war with Songcheng. Of course other cities wouldn't mind coming over to get a share of the pie.

It's not that Ni Si insists on building a city here, but that only around here can a city be built.

Unless, even give up here and go to a farther place to try your luck.

For him, building a city here is also beneficial.

Not only are ghouls and radiated corpses as natural barriers, but also a large amount of waste in the abandoned city can be recycled. Whether the level can be maxed out depends on how much stock there is here.

Looking at the progress, it has reached 72%. Since becoming the leader, the progress bar has increased significantly.

Wei Qi opened the map and looked at it. This is a map that took the shelter for decades, with the shelter as the center, and the surrounding map of [-] kilometers.

This map was also found by the seniors of the refuge.

According to Niu Dingtian, there should be a global map configured by the company in the bracelets of the major city lords.

This is the information circulated within the 'company' and cannot be seen on the public network.

Forces that do not belong to the 'company' will be restricted to a certain area because there is no map.

It will be much easier to deal with.

After watching it for a long time, Wei Qi must admit that within [-] kilometers around, the only place where a city can be built is Taoyuan City or here.

Li Hu chose to build a settlement in the north of the refuge, obviously premeditated.

"In order to put some pressure on those radiated corpses, in the short term, we need to clean up the abandoned city again. Let them understand that it is best to cooperate with us, otherwise we can kill the ghouls, and naturally we can kill them too!"

Divide first, then deter, and finally be gentle again?
Everyone couldn't help looking at Ni Si, why are you so familiar with this set?
It's okay to be familiar with each other, but you just met, and the establishment of diplomatic relations or hostility has not yet begun, yet you have already calculated others? !

"What's so strange? We are short of water. Do we have to wait for them to make a clear statement before considering whether to deal with them?"

Seeing everyone's obvious expressions, Ni Si could only spread his hands to explain.

Since everyone knows that they have water over there, it's fine if they are willing to share it. Could it be that if they don't want to, they can't get it by themselves?

To put it bluntly, even if it is shared, the water source is mainly close to others. How can it be more secure if it is controlled by oneself.

"Then I'll go get ready, and just tell me when to go to battle!"

Wei Wei stood up first, followed by Li Ran and others.

They don't care about fighting, and it happens that there is nothing else to do in winter.

After two days like this, Ni Si went to the ruins of the wine city, not only took another batch of water, but also tried to dredge the underground river.

"According to the height of the water surface, it will take at least another five days to inject water into the river smoothly..."

It took one night like this, and the river channel was cleaned up, but the water surface of the lake formed by the bomb crater had not yet reached that height.

There are also pots where he took water twice, but dredging the river is not without hidden dangers.

There is always someone who will eventually discover this underground river, but they just don't know if they will find a haven of refuge along the river.

Why don't we carry out renovations there, but instead go to the abandoned city at the expense of the nearby? The main reason is this concern.

For the next period of time, it is mainly for the overall relocation of the Taoyuan shelter.

At the same time, the tiger's den shelter was expanded to build a double shelter structure.

With the help of wind power and solar power generation, the problem of electricity consumption in shelters can basically be solved.

Finally, it is to solve the problem of water source.

This series of things must be completed within two months.

Thinking about it, he is basically the only one who can do this!

"Boss, the Radiated Corpse sent a communication on their own initiative, hoping that we can go over to talk to them tonight."

Back at the refuge, fill the water tank with water, and Page, who received the news, hurried over.

"It's pretty good. I got a response within two days."

Ni Si was taken aback when he heard the words, but then he understood, after all, during the daytime, they carried out booby-trapping operations against ghouls.

It's just that compared with the last time, only a few thousand ghouls were attracted, but the result was good, basically killing them all.

The abandoned city is not small. At present, this area is only a 'suburb', so it's not surprising that there are so few of them.

It’s just that if you want to go deeper, there will be more and more buildings over there, and there will be a lot of vehicles that need to be cleaned up. If you really want to clean up the abandoned city, it will be difficult if you don’t have a year.

This is still the case when the ghouls come out to hunt on their own initiative. If they are scattered in various buildings to fight guerrilla attacks and ambushes, then casualties will inevitably occur when they enter the sweeping army.

What is the most feared, the most feared is the union of the radiated corpse and the ghoul.

After all, if they can coexist, the possibility of communication is not ruled out.

Whether it is the wasteland or an unfamiliar neighbor, it is reasonable to speculate on the other party with the greatest maliciousness.

After thinking for a while, he finally told Li Ran and Wei Wei to lead their troops and go with him, while Xun Ze and Lizhao were ready to support him.

So at night, with the opening of the city gate, a team of nearly a thousand people headed towards the designated place.

"Why do the meetings have to be held at night?"

Seeing a group of people waiting in front, Ni Si stepped forward and teased.

Upon closer inspection, there were more than a dozen people on the other side.Somewhat unexpectedly, besides more than a dozen radiated corpses, there are five old humans.

"I'm sorry, after all, corpses have the least desire to attack at night. At the same time, we are used to living underground, and the sunlight during the day is too dazzling for us!"

The leader of the Radiation Corpse Man, the one who had come into contact with Ni Si for the first time, stepped forward and said.

"Actually, I think that as long as you and I cooperate, the ghouls in the abandoned city can be cleaned up in about half a year at most."

"No, no, it is because of the existence of ghouls that we can live safely underground."

Ni Si said something half-jokingly, but unexpectedly the old human being opposite jumped out to refute.

"To be honest, I'm a little curious. It's understandable that the radiated corpses are not attacked by ghouls, but why are you not attacked?"

"Of course it's because... we are also taking the initiative to transform corpses into humans..."

One of the old humans stepped forward and pulled up his clothes, revealing the skin that had begun to mutate.

"I have a question. Is the humanization of the radiation corpses the common meaning of the existing old human beings, or is it the meaning of a few people?"

Ni Si asked solemnly. The answer to this question was very important to him.

"There are still a few people who maintain their original appearance and take the initiative to change the ideas that are already shared by most people... Until you appeared, some people's ideas changed."

The old human being pulled down his clothes and said somewhat helplessly.

If you don't transform into a radiant man, you will be attacked by ghouls as long as you come to the ground, which means you can only live underground forever.

Looking carefully at these old humans, it is not difficult to find that their skin is very white, sickly white. This is the reason for living underground all year round.

Many people look only in their 30s and [-]s, and their hair has begun to turn gray.

For these old humans, the abandoned city is a prison.

In order to be free, they had to sacrifice something.

A consensus had already been reached, but they didn't expect someone to come to contact them at this time.

The condensed hearts became agitated again.

"Can your situation be reversed?"

Ni Si felt somewhat sympathetic to these people, but there was nothing he could do. He had just found out about it.

Even if he knew about it half a year ago, it wouldn't change the fact.

"Once it starts, it can't be reversed. It's not much worse anyway. It looks a little uglier, but at least it has a longer life."

If it is said to have a long lifespan, of course it is a ghoul, which can actually maintain its vitality through photosynthesis, and has survived for nearly a hundred years.

Radiated corpses are between humans and ghouls, and cannot maintain their vitality through photosynthesis, but their lifespan has been significantly increased, and aging will also be slowed down.

It cannot be denied that, as an existence that lives underground for a long time, longevity is not necessarily a good thing.

"Okay, I think we can get to the point." Zhang Cai clapped his hands, "This time, the fifteen patriarchs from the underground world, representing a total of [-] radiated corpses and humans, communicate with you ground people... who Do you want to express your opinion first?"

"Let me come first!" The old human beings who took the initiative to communicate before came forward, "There are quite a few people in the five of us, and they all hope to return to the ground to live, but can you accept them equally and prevent them from being harmed?"

"Of course I welcome you to join our city, but do you know what the situation is like on the ground now?"

"Although we all live underground, we can still know the situation on the ground through the public network. It is precisely because we know that the ground is now ruled by the so-called new humans that our people dare not leave the underground. You demi-humans, seriously We're still a little concerned."

"Please don't worry about this. There are many old humans in our refuge, including me and the battalion commander next to me. They are all old humans. They just pretended to avoid trouble. Until we are really strong enough not to be afraid of any forces, then we will naturally Officially restored to its original form.”

"So that's it, pretending to be a demihuman... Indeed, this is a good way!"

"We will also help your people disguise. As you know, there are fewer and fewer old humans on the ground. We need more old humans to join in and restore civilization together."

"Since you are old humans, we have nothing to say here. Within five days, our clansmen will move up one after another. I hope you can accept them. They are not quite used to life on the ground. I hope you can guide them well."

"No problem, old humans don't lie to old humans!"

"In addition, we also want to know, is it true that you promised to build a stronghold for us in the abandoned city?"

"Of course, I promise you as the leader. As long as the two sides reach a covenant, then I will build a stronghold for you in the abandoned city, so that you can live on the ground, and at the same time watch together, mutual help and win-win!"

"Since that's the case... the five of us agree to form an alliance with you!"

The five old human patriarchs exchanged glances, and finally made a formal statement.

This is just the beginning, the real difficulty is still on the side of the ten radiated corpses.

Strictly speaking, they are no longer human beings, and it is hard to say whether they are willing to live in peace.

"We don't like war, so we would rather hide underground than live on the ground... Of course, this is the idea of ​​the older generation. Young people inevitably yearn for the ground and light. When the stronghold is established, they will come up to live one after another .As for us, the older generation, we should continue to live underground. The alliance is fine, but we also hope that you will not continue to go deep into the abandoned city."

"The abandoned city is very large. In addition to the corpses, there are also a lot of resources... Any force that wants to develop needs resources. Among other things, water source is an urgent problem that needs to be solved!"

"We were born in this city, grew up here, and this is our home. Naturally, everything here should be ours. We can trade with you, but if you come in on your own initiative, we will treat it as an invasion. As for the water source, we can share it, the underground lake is so big that even our fifteen tribes can’t use it up.”

"Your statement is really ridiculous. Just because you live in the abandoned city, the things belong to you. We still live on the earth, so don't all the things on the earth belong to us? What you say is pure rogue!"

Wei Qi was somewhat dissatisfied with the other party's attitude. The abandoned city was huge and there were a lot of supplies.

The Radiated Corpse People may have been residents of this city, but they can't be said to have lived here. The things here belong to them.

"Vich, there's no need, the deal is actually fair!"

Ni Si immediately persuaded that in the case of the abandoned city, all that can be traded are rubbish.

He recycles the garbage and creates finished products to trade back. Not only can the progress bar be improved, but the price difference is his side's profit.

It is equivalent to that the radiated corpses in the entire abandoned city have become his porters, helping to carry things out, this is a good deal!
"But the transaction is OK, and the price of the transaction needs to be negotiated. At the same time, I hope that I can pay with credit points."

"We don't use this thing at all..."

Zhang Cai shook his head. They all conducted barter transactions down there, and they were more self-sufficient.

Credits, they knew, were the common currency of the wasteland, but they had no use for them.

"You can store it first, and then buy goods from us, or even entrust us to purchase materials. Of course, in this case, we will charge a part of the service fee. You should know the website of the Chamber of Commerce, and there are always goods you need. "

Ni Si immediately stated his position, mainly because he was bullying the other party because he did not know that he was a member of the business alliance.

Through internal pricing, he can purchase goods at a lower price.

Plus the service fee, at least about [-]% of the purchase price can be earned.

Of course, it is not as comfortable as getting supplies for free, but friendship is a gradual process.

When the two parties trust each other to a certain extent, the bottom line can be properly relaxed.

"So that's the case, if this is the case, then we agree!"

Zhang Cai was taken aback when he heard the words, and then turned to look at the other patriarchs. After seeing them nodding, he immediately agreed to the condition.

"We have another condition, that is, the three streets that have been cleared by us belong to us! After all, we have cleared up all the ghouls, killed so many ghouls, and wasted so much ammunition, so we can't waste it for nothing, right?"

"You have also confiscated a lot of vehicles, even if they are scrapped, they are worth a lot."

"Why, where is the sphere of influence of one of you?"

"Forget it, I've approved this matter! The supplies are limited to these three streets, and we won't give up the territory!"

Seeing that the clan leader behind him was about to speak, Zhang Cai immediately expressed his stance.Strictly speaking, these three streets in the suburbs were his territory.

"Of course, we only need supplies."

Ni Xi nodded in satisfaction.

　Four thousand words!It was originally [-] words, but I felt that I couldn't finish the [-] words, and I was too lazy to distinguish between the top and bottom, so I simply combined it in one go.

　　Ask for collection, ask for recommendation, ask for subscription!
