Chapter 1063: Easy Win, Unexpected Cooperation!
In front of the wall of the Pumpkin Bunker, six motor airships with counter-currents were quietly floating in the air.
For the bunker residents living near the holy city of Bokelo, this thing is not rare, it is one of the standard patrol configurations of the academy guards.
They even know the data of this airship clearly.
The maximum speed is 120 kilometers, the maximum endurance is 800 kilometers, the maximum ascent height is 30 meters, and the maximum load is 500 kilograms.
Two pulse electric shock guns are equipped for normal patrols, with a range of 200 meters, which can release ultra-high voltage to defeat the enemy when hitting.
When going out for combat, they are equipped with intelligent control laser guns, with a range of 500 meters, which can cause considerable casualties.
However, for the mole guys living around Sunny Harbor City and the players who traveled from Earth.
This thing is rare.
Standing in front of the barracks, the dream hunter shielded the dazzling sunlight with his hands, looked at the airships and exclaimed in surprise:
"This thing is so advanced, it should use anti-gravity technology, and those airflows are just to maintain balance and direction."
If you want to use pure airflow to support such a thing to fly, the noise alone can probably be heard several kilometers away.
But now the sound made by the airship is roughly the same as the water in the kettle boiling, which is enough to show the advanced technology content inside.
"By the way, do you need a driver's license to fly this airship?"
"Uh, haha, I'm joking, don't take it seriously."
The old Taoist told a cold joke, and when he saw that everyone around was looking over, he laughed quickly.
However, when he turned his head, he saw that the male gun brother was staring at the airship intently, with a look of desire in his eyes.
"Damn, buddy, calm down."
"It's okay, I'll just take a look."
The male gun brother said without turning his head, but his eyes were still fixed on the airship.
Compared with the noisy armed helicopters, these airships are obviously more suitable for the wasteland environment.
It would be great if we could get one down.
It would be much more convenient to travel between the bunker and the village in the future!
However, the other party did not seem to have any intention of a conflict.
There was no communication between the two sides, and the airship quickly fell from the sky and parked in front of the bunker wall.
According to the configuration of two people per boat, there were a total of twelve people on the six airships.
Six of them stayed to take care of the airships, and the other six followed the black-clad captain in the front to the wall.
"We are from the Kyushu Great Rift Valley Academy Base. We received the academy's standard distress signal and followed all the way here."
"Is this the academy's property?"
Facing Bacon, the deputy captain of the bunker guard, Bernie, the black-clad captain, pursed his lips, with a hint of surprise in his eyes.
He had already taken a look at the scene inside the bunker when he came here, and now he was just asking knowingly.
The academy would not have such a personal industry, and it is likely to be the private property of a researcher or professor.
Signal for help
Hmm.
Maybe I can get some well-paid private work here.
As a guard soldier who once served in the Holy City, Bernie's salary is not cheap, but the expenses are also scary.
The meager subsidy after retirement cannot fully cover the cost of living, let alone in Bokelo, even in the small settlements around.
There is no way, in order to maintain the quality of life during service and not let his family suffer with him.
He had to choose to join the private research base of the professor of the academy to supplement the family income.
Of course, if it was before, the work of the guard of the research base guard was indeed a good job.
With the name of the academy, they can patrol around the base at most and then go back to the room to rest.
However, with the great changes in the world, the work that the guards need to do has suddenly increased tenfold!
Not only are they responsible for the security of the base, but they also have to perform various outrageous tasks and even track down those damn fugitives.
Although the base paid a lot more, Bernie was determined to save up a generous pension as soon as possible, get out of this bottomless "quagmire" as soon as possible, and return to the safe Bokelo to spend his later years.
"Don't be nervous, I was a retired soldier in the Holy City and I know the rules."
"This is the identification code, you should be able to verify it, right?"
"Yes, please wait for a moment, sir."
Bacon nodded and turned to walk into the bunker after taking the finger-sized chip handed over by Bernie.
Nat had already informed the master. He was still worried about how to hold back the group of people just now, but now he was much more relaxed.
With this chip, Bacon quickly came to the small house where he talked to Katarina.
"Go, keep holding them back."
Nat stuck his head out of the room, took the chip and closed the door.
Insert the chip into the identification machine.
Soon, lines of data recording information were projected on the wall.
[Becky Burney]
[Age: 52 years old]
[Identity: Retired Guard Sergeant of the Academy (Level 3 Sergeant)]
[Identity: Guard Captain of Kyushu Great Rift Valley Base (Belongs to Bu Ernest)]
“It seems that the group of people really recognized my distress signal. This is a bit troublesome.”
Katarina behind the screen looked a little ugly.
With the protection of the Western Suburbs Alliance, she didn’t want to expose her identity to a group of strangers.
It would be fine if these people were the guards of the Holy City or the regular army of the academy.
The key point is that the other party is just a guard of a professor’s private research base.
If these people leak their identities, think about the many troubles that will follow
"Can the academy's distress signal only be received at close range?"
Katerina was still having a headache, and the sound from the speaker suddenly rang in her ears.
She nodded subconsciously: "Yes, there are long-wave signals, but the signals are blocked."
Before she finished speaking, Catalina suddenly realized something.
"Nat, you go out first."
"Okay, master."
Guard captain Nat nodded, opened the door and left without knowing why.
When there were only two people left in the room again, with a slight vibration in the room, Catalina said:
"I have turned on the sound insulation shielding, and you can rest assured that there will be no equipment to eavesdrop on the conversation.
"If I'm not mistaken, you don't want to kill them, do you? "
The young face on the screen looked harmless, and even more elegant than the researchers in the academy.
But he was able to become the manager of the shelter in a chaotic environment and organize the Western Suburbs Alliance.
Katerina didn't believe what she saw, she preferred to believe that all this was the other party's "disguise".
"How is it possible, they are from the academy."
Su Mo shook his head, still smiling.
"No one would want to offend the academy, it would be bad if a nuclear bomb fell on their heads."
"You are really careful."
Katerina curled her lips, further confirming her thoughts.
"They don't have much to do with the academy, at most it's just a retired soldier who has found a new job."
"If the academy would launch a nuclear bomb for a retired soldier, the entire planet would have no place to survive!"
"Why, you don't seem to want them to know that you are here?"
Su Mo looked at the screen with a hint of interest.
"Of course, it's not a good thing to let a group of strangers know that there is an academy researcher trapped in a safe house. "
"The academic environment in the academy is not as good as you imagined. Forget about many things. We should have a long time to communicate. You will slowly learn about these things in the future."
Catrina said naturally, and suddenly changed the subject:
"Dear Tianyuan Shelter Manager, we are allies, there is no need to be so unfamiliar. Since those who escaped from the laboratory have gone to you and provided their research results information, I think you should be very interested in their research. "
"You can rest assured that it is not a new thing to rob each other of research results in the academy. As long as you are not caught on the spot by the academy, you can pay a fine later. If you want, I can provide you with some help, such as blocking their distress signals, or luring some greedy "birds" into this room with bait. "
"And you just need to find a way to keep them. "
Katerina behind the screen talked freely, and she became more energetic after mentioning the attack on "their own people".
Although she didn't quite believe what Su Mo said, that the other party's research institute had already cracked the secret of evolution.
But it was so exciting to be able to snatch the professor's research results.
In the past, the results of researchers were taken away by professors at will, used as task indicators or sold for profit.
Now if the other party can also taste this, it would be great.
"How about it, do you need cooperation?"
"Cooperation? "
After repeating these two words, Su Mo nodded without hesitation this time.
Could it be that the months of dormancy have led to better luck?
Before coming, he had never thought that the other party would be so proactive. At most, providing some information would be great.
But now Catalina's proposal is like a pillow delivered immediately when you are sleepy. It couldn't be better.
If you can take down the other party so easily, it will save the trouble of subsequent layout.
Of course, from the bottom of his heart, Su Mo has never worried about whether he can take down this group of people.
After all, in terms of the information obtained, in addition to being able to fly and well-equipped, their combat effectiveness is not much different from that of ordinary soldiers in the city. The two are on par.
"So, do I need to trick Captain Bernie here?"
"Of course, it's always better to have less trouble."
"There are people watching us there."
"Their eyes are like looking at monsters. Is this the first time they see the guards of the academy?"
"It's really possible. These people in the gathering place should be serious residents. "
"Don't worry about them. I just want to know if I can rest here tonight. I don't want to go to the building to blow the cold wind again."
Waiting in front of the city wall, the guards looked at the inside of the bunker and whispered to each other.
From the eyes of the bunker residents, they could find that it was obviously not the first time for the other party to see this black uniform.
That natural demeanor was obviously the reaction of frequent contact with the college guards.
Especially compared with the simple camp that was still under construction in front of the city wall, the difference between the eyes of those people was even more obvious.
Finally, I met a gathering place of my own people.
Except for Captain Bernie, everyone else was a little excited.
No matter which professor or researcher's industry this is, it is always much safer than those "wild" gathering places.
It is much better to come here to rest and eat some food than to stay in the wild!
"Welcome Captain Bernie to the Pumpkin Kefu Bunker, we have verified your identity, please come in!"
With a smile on his face, Nat trotted out from the gap under the city wall.
After hearing this, Bernie, who had always kept a straight face, finally showed a smile.
"here it is?"
"Our host is researcher Catalina, and has also dealt with Professor Ernest. This is her private estate."
Nat introduced: "Captain Bernie, as you know, the world has changed. We were inexplicably teleported from near Buckloo to this wilderness. Everything is terrible!"
"In order to prevent danger from happening, the master has gone to the safe house a long time ago to wait for the Holy City Guards to arrive, and we have been trying to send the signal you received a long time ago!"
"Are you Researcher Catalina?"
Bernie was a little disappointed.
Although the size of the bunker seemed okay, a mere researcher shouldn't be able to afford much remuneration.
Especially if the other party hides in a safe house, it is even more impossible to pay them to do things.
However, just before his disappointment fully came over, Nat's next words made him feel a little congested in his brain.
"Yes, the master finally felt more relieved after hearing the news of the captain's arrival."
"If you don't mind being hired, the owner would like to meet you in person."
"The reward is five thousand academic coins, as long as you can bring some news to the Holy City, and we will pay half of it first!"
"What?!"
Bernie couldn't help but exclaim.
Under normal circumstances, while he was in service, his annual salary was only about five hundred school coins.
After retiring and joining a professor's branch base, his salary plummeted to 300.
Five thousand academic coins!
With all his calculations, it would take him sixteen years to save so much.
"Yes, the changes in the world are too disturbing. The master hopes to return to the Holy City as quickly as possible."
“Don’t know about Captain Bernie”
"I promise, of course I cough, I mean this matter can be left to me!"
Bernie nodded without hesitation.
"Don't worry, I will be a guard of the Holy City before I retire. Of course I can understand the mood of Researcher Catalina."
"Now, please take me there quickly, I can't wait."
If the other party's reward is to be settled after the task is completed, then Bernie may still consider it.
But right from the beginning, the other party was willing to pay half, which was two thousand five hundred.
Even if he wanted to share some profits with his subordinates, the amount that fell into his hands would be more than two thousand academic coins.
Depend on.
This is close to seven years of income, and this is simply a windfall.
"You guys wait for me here, I'll be back as soon as I go."
Bernie turned around and gave a few instructions to the guard soldiers waiting behind him.
He was not worried about any danger in the bunker at all. This lucrative mission was just a way for the other party to lure him into taking the bait.
After all, there is no conflict of interest between the two, and the college’s identification code will not be falsified.
What's more, he had already made arrangements before coming and only brought half of the people.
As long as they don't go back in the afternoon, the remaining people in the city will evacuate immediately and bring the information back to the base.
At that time, more guardsmen will come and destroy this place.
"Let's go."
Following Nat as he walked into the bunker, Bernie felt as if his feet were a little lighter.
Especially when he noticed the residents around him smiling kindly at him, he couldn't help but smile back.
Although he had always looked down upon such slaves before.
But after dealing with those unruly fugitives a lot, the sight of a well-behaved slave is really reassuring!
The two of them walked in tandem and soon arrived at the room communicating with the underground.
Nat opened the door and gestured: "Sorry, because the safe house cannot be opened repeatedly, I can only talk to the owner through here."
"No problem, of course I know this."
Although he saw a man in the room waiting by the screen, Bernie still took it for granted that the man was just a staff member.
He walked in unsuspectingly and came all the way to the screen, uncontrollable excitement flashing across his face.
"Honorable"
Bang.
The words have not yet finished.
Before the door could even be closed, a heavy muffled sound sounded.
Nat looked inside in surprise.
But they saw Captain Bernie, who was excited just now, lying in Somo's arms with a peaceful look on his face.
Look at it, it's like someone who has stayed up for a few nights has found a comfortable bed.
What a great sleep!
