Chapter 2462 Request (I Can Turn over Even if I Yawn)
Kate was born in a shelter.
She grew up in a refuge, and Kate only listened to her parents and teachers explaining the outside world. To be honest, Kate doesn't have any special thoughts about the world that is said to be bombed by nuclear bombs outside. Her wish is actually very simple, that is, to spend an ordinary life in the shelter like her father and grandfather. Live your life, marry and have children, and grow old.
Unfortunately, reality and dreams are always two different things.
The shelter has been raided.
Kate didn't know what happened in the first place, only that someone tricked the manager of the shelter into opening the thick round iron door, and then a group of guys dressed in weird clothes rushed in, and they ransacked the entire shelter Therefore, those who dared to resist died. The rest were picked up like cattle and taken away.
At the time Kate thought it was hell, but it wasn't that simple. The day after they were taken away by those terrifying bandits, a group of soldiers wearing weird armor and fly-like helmets attacked them. They killed the bandits mercilessly, and then started to arrest other people.
In the end, Kate's companions in the Vault were taken either by bandits or by scary monsters in fly armor, and only she escaped in the dark and came to this small town of Rolling Stones.
The people here are not bad, they accepted Kate who had nowhere to go, and gave her a job that was not bad. But Kate doesn't want to live like this. Her brother and sister were also taken away. Now she only hopes to find her brother and sister back. For this reason, Kate also asked around, and finally she found out who she met from other wasteland adventurers.
The bandits who raided the safehouse were from a group called the Legion, and the warriors in fly armor were members of the Enclave.
Kate is eager for their help to save her family, but no one is willing to accept her commission. Both Legion and Enclave are giants for ordinary wasteland adventurers, and it is impossible to be their enemy.
And at this time, Kate heard about the existence of a god of death, which was spread from the wasteland.
According to those wasteland traders and adventurers, Reaper is a horrible and terrible creature, no one knows who he is, and no one knows what he will do. He was just haunting the wasteland, killing anyone who stood in his way. He once helped a village wipe out an army of dozens of mutants, and single-handedly destroyed the bandit tribe entrenched on the edge of the western mountain range.
He even had a conflict with the Brotherhood of Steel, and the latter even sent two squads to hunt him down, but those brave soldiers never came back, and even the elders of the Brotherhood of Steel branch had their heads in their bunkers. Li was cut off—after that, no force dared to attack this man.
"If it's that guy, maybe he can help you find your family."
Those were the words a wasteland adventurer told Kate, and Kate took them to heart to this day.
She wasn't worried about someone impersonating Reaper, who was known to wield a large, black sword and a white, dagger-like pistol.
The features are too obvious.
Although there are many rumors about the Grim Reaper, Kate can't wait any longer.
So just when Death was about to leave the bar, she hurried up to him and stopped him.
"What's up?"
Fangzheng looked at the blond woman in front of him. Judging from her appearance, she was in her twenties, and she should be an unlucky person born in a refuge. Fangzheng has been traveling in the wasteland for a while, and he also found some gaps. For example, the skin of the people in the shelter is smoother and more delicate, while the residents of the wasteland are very rough, and some people have not even dressed up at all.
Basically, malnutrition and skin diseases are standard equipment for wasteland residents.
The woman in front of her looked very clean, her hair had been washed, and the uniform she was wearing was something that only those in the refuge would wear.
Fangzheng could even guess what she was thinking.
"I hope you can help me find my sister and brother, who were taken away by the Legion and the Enclave..."
Speaking of this, the woman was obviously a little nervous.
"I, I can pay, and myself... I'm not sick, and I haven't slept with a man! I promise you will be satisfied!"
Selling one's body is commonplace for wasteland residents. In this dump where order and law have long been abandoned, all formalistic morality has long since ceased to exist. Perhaps the NCR can more or less maintain some pre-war order, but their powerlessness is ironic to some extent.
"I am not interested."
Fangzheng shook his head. Although the woman in front of him looks better than those guys wearing inferior perfumes, at least she knows how to dress herself up, but the women in this land are not attractive to Fangzheng, let alone It is said that there are two cute little guys beside him to warm his bed. Why does Fang Zheng go to outsiders?
Besides, Fangzheng has seen this kind of woman a lot, wherever he goes, similar people will come to his door, either for revenge or for help. One thing women are better than men is that they at least have capital to sell, and if a man goes to a tavern to express that he can sell himself, it is guaranteed that he will lie directly in the garbage dump the next day.
Sometimes Fangzheng will help, sometimes not, basically he just depends on his mood.
And Fang Zheng, who had just been drenched in the rain, was obviously not in the mood to show his gentlemanly demeanor at this time.
He ignored the woman, then turned to look at the tavern owner behind the bar.
"What's there to go north from here?"
"This... sir, I don't understand what you mean."
"To the north, is there any gathering place? Or a bandit den? What's there? Tell me everything you know."
Fangzheng took out a map from his coat and placed it on the bar, stretched out his hand and pointed to it. This is why he has learned to behave now, instead of rushing to a certain place like a fool, and then fight with the mutant bandits inside It's better to find out the surrounding situation in advance.
"This... I remember that there is the garrison of the Brotherhood of Steel, the NCR and the Legion, and the mutants..."
"Specifically?"
"Sorry, I don't know much about this..."
"I know!!"
However, at this moment, the woman's voice sounded again, and she came to Fang again, staring at him.
"I know the situation over there. The Brotherhood of Steel is stationed in Wolf Rock, and the NCR was on the farm before, but recently they retreated to the River Valley after fighting the Legion. The radio tower here is occupied by zombies, those Mutants are blocking the tunnel..."
Kate tried her best to explain to Fangzheng that in order to find and save her family, she had been trying her best to obtain various information from the adventurers and businessmen who passed by here, and now, these efforts finally paid off.
This time, Fang Zheng finally looked at the woman in front of him. He stared at her and asked.
"what would you like?"
"I, I hope you can help me rescue my brother and sister, they were taken away..."
"By whom?"
"...the Legion and the Enclave."
In fact, for a moment, Kate wanted to find a false excuse and lie to the other party to help her, but under Fang Zheng's gaze, she hesitated for a moment and finally told the truth. A woman's intuition told her that if she lied here, it would end badly.
"The slavers and the rednecks? I've heard of them."
Of course, Fangzheng is no stranger to these two organizations. Fangzheng is a little more familiar with the Enclave. After all, he has seen it in the game back then, and the helmet of the big-headed fly is really impressive.
The legion is what Fang Zheng often heard after he came here. The main thing that makes Fang Zheng interesting is that this legion is still imitating the Roman structure, and their leader calls himself Caesar... Well, it will be retro after the nuclear explosion is over. , but you are too retro.
A little further and we will go back to the caveman era.
"How long has your younger brother and sister been taken away?"
"Big, about a month."
"That's hard to say."
Fangzheng shrugged.
"They may have been sold, or they may have died."
"Of course I know, but I still want to find them!!"
Kate naturally knew what Fang Zheng meant. In fact, almost everyone persuaded her that way, but she didn't give up because of this.
"Whether it's dead or alive, I have to find them. They are my only relatives in this world now, and..."
Having said that, Kate lowered her head.
"I promised my parents to take good care of them."
interesting.
Looking at the woman in front of him, Fangzheng frowned.
"If you are willing to help lead the way, then we can drop by to have a look, but I won't waste too much time on this, do you understand? It's just because of the way, if it wasn't for the way, I wouldn't make a move, so If it's going to change course or go somewhere else, then I'm not going to go with it."
"I see!!"
Kate nodded vigorously.
"May I have your name?"
"Kate."
"Then Kate, come see me tomorrow."
After saying this, Fangzheng turned around and walked up the stairs, and watching him leave, Kate clenched her fists excitedly.
This time, she finally saw the dawn!
