The dirt road leading to the long-term farm.

Yin Fang, who was sitting in the back of the truck and wrapped himself in a fur coat like a rice dumpling, kept chattering along the way.

"This is impossible! The logo of the college? Appearing at a community college in a little-known town? Are you sure you're not kidding?"

Chu Guang smiled lightly and said.

"If you are joking, I will let you go alone."

"..."

Yin Fang looked at him speechlessly, not wanting to speak.

But Chu Guang really wanted to chat with him.

There was no way around it. The information in Qingquan City was too limited. He relied almost entirely on hearsay information and his own imagination for what was happening outside.

Chu Guang was also very curious about why things from the academy appeared in an ordinary academy.

According to Yin Fang, it is at least a thousand kilometers from here to the Wandering Swamp, which is far beyond the academy's sphere of influence.

Although Qingquan City is one of the important cities in the southern urban agglomeration of River Valley Province, it was only during the Prosperity Era.

"Actually, I have always been curious about what kind of organization the academy is."

Yin Fang shook his head and said, "If I want to fully explain this issue, I'm afraid it will take me all day and all night to finish it."

"Then just pick the key points and talk about the ones I'm interested in."

Being left speechless by this willful question, Yin Fang opened his mouth, and did not come back to his senses until he took a sip of northwest wind.

He coughed several times and said.

"How should I put it? The academy... is actually not as mysterious as you outsiders imagine. It is like a huge library. In fact, until the end of the Prosperity Era, it was just a loose academic organization."

Chu Guang looked at him with interest and said: "But your behavior is not relaxed at all, nor simple, nor does it look like an academic organization."

"That's for sure. I said it was before the end of the Prosperity Era, and now it's the 211th year of the Wasteland Era."

Two hundred years.

In the history of human civilization, many feudal dynasties failed to exist for such a long time, let alone an academic institution.

Yin Fang squinted his eyes and looked to the southwest before continuing.

"I've only heard a little bit about it. In the early years of the Wasteland Era, the college undertook part of the post-war reconstruction work. This work was mainly concentrated in the technical field. This included taking over some experimental facilities, scientific research equipment, and repairing damaged data.

and the restoration of lost technology.”

Chu Guang: "It sounds like a very grand project."

Yin Fang sighed faintly and said: "That's right, we haven't finished this work until now. The world is changing too fast. It is said that a long time ago, the influence of the academy spread throughout the entire Central Continent. The academy's inspection team can go to them

Anywhere we want to go. But the good times don’t last long. The places outside the Wandering Swamp can no longer accommodate people from the academy. Everyone who looks at us looks like we are seeing fat sheep.”

Hearing the word fat sheep, Chu Guang unconsciously glanced at this guy's right hand.

Be reasonable.

An arm is worth at least 10,000R, and it's also a friendship price. Chu Guang feels that this really can't be blamed on others, even a good person like him would be tempted.

"Speaking of which, what kind of place is the Wandering Swamp?"

Yin Fang answered briefly: "It's a very vast swamp, as big as a province. The weather there is getting out of control every day, and the alien species are going crazy every day... In short, you won't like that place."

"I didn't say I wanted to go, I was just curious." Chu Guang looked forward, patted the roof of the car, and motioned to the driver to find a place to park nearby, "It's right in front, we're here."

After getting out of the car, Chu Guang pulled out the hammer behind him.

The four young players who accompanied him decisively picked up the guy and walked in front, taking on the role of guard.

In a lineup of 2 strength and 2 senses, the two strength-type players walked in front to open the way, and the two perception-type players followed behind to "light up the lights". Each of the four people had an LD-47 assault rifle, and the firepower was quite sufficient, making them feel very safe.

Since the firepower is sufficient, Chu Guang does not need to supplement the firepower. He can hold the hammer and open the shield in time to protect himself and the nP next to him.

This area of ​​town is quite deserted.

Due to the blizzard, there were almost no aliens wandering on the streets. After getting rid of a few gnawers hiding in the shadows, the group of people successfully arrived at the target area on the map.

It was a community college. It looked quite plain in appearance, and even its area was only slightly larger than the nearby high school.

Standing in front of the laboratory building, Yin Fang raised his head and shook his head.

"I don't think the academy would be interested in such an inconsequential goal. You will most likely be in vain."

Upon hearing this, Chu Guang smiled lightly.

"We're already at the door. Isn't this trip in vain? We'll find out if we go in and take a look."

After saying this, Chu Guang led the players inside.

Seeing that he was about to fall behind, Yin Fang could only bite the bullet and follow him, and stepped into this gloomy experimental building.

There were broken tiles, gravel and rubble all over the ground, as well as newly dropped bullet casings. It looked like a fierce battle broke out here more than an hour ago.

Looking at the crawler with a split head on the ground, Yin Fang clicked his tongue and involuntarily followed a little closer.

In the academy's scientific expedition team, rude things like fighting are usually done by E-class, F-class and even bionics and drones. What D-class personnel need is independent analysis ability and excellent brains.

Even if you need to master some survival skills, survival itself is the main focus.

Such as basic first aid knowledge.

Yin Fang was very doubtful about the combat effectiveness of these people, especially when he saw that the manager was still holding a hammer in his hand, this feeling of unreliability became even stronger.

"Can you give me a gun? I can protect myself."

"You are vIP, just stay behind me."

"vIP?"

"Tsk, how can I explain it to you?"

While we were chatting, a group of people had already arrived.

Commander Quan Shui, who was wearing heavy armor, stood in front of him, respectfully placed his right fist on his chest and performed a military salute.

"Dear administrator, when you came, we have successfully cleared the entire first-floor hall of alien species for you."

"Well done." Chu Guang nodded approvingly, looked at him and said, "Lead the way from the front."

"yes!"

After receiving the manager's affirmative look, Quan Shui happily walked ahead and led the way. Chu Guang ordered two players to guard the entrance, while the other two players followed him and Yin Fang to explore the basement.

Go in.

The passage here is very narrow.

However, after entering, everything suddenly opened up.

Looking at the ten dormant cabins placed in the basement, Yin Fang suddenly seemed to be petrified and froze on the spot.

After coming back to his senses, he rushed forward without saying a word, got to the nearest sleeping cabin, and stared at it.

"There is no mistake...the style of this training cabin is exactly the same!" Yin Fang muttered in his mouth, groping with his hands on the dusty cabin door, wishing he could throw himself on it.

The young players around looked at each other, exchanged confused glances, and asked in low voices.

"What is this doctor doing?"

"I don't know...maybe it's a special hobby?"

"I understand, the new nP's hobby is hibernation pods!"

"Boss, you are awesome! I will post on the forum later. Hehe, I wonder if I can be a good person."

Chu Guang: "..."

This kind of boring post will be more sophisticated.

After coughing slightly, Chu Guang looked at Yin Fang who was stunned and asked.

"What exactly?"

"It's exactly the same model as the academy's dormant cabin... Damn it, why does this type of dormant cabin appear in the River Valley Province?"

With an expression of disbelief on his face, Yin Fang finally left the dormant cabin and looked at Chu Guang and said seriously.

"Where's that box? The one with the college logo you mentioned."

Chu Guang took the box, which was the mission item in the eyes of the players, from the players who were following him, and handed it to Yin Fang's hand.

"Here...what the hell is this thing?"

"A black box that stores data!" Yin Fang tapped the surface of the box with his knuckles and gushed with joy, "The outer layer of material can effectively resist neutron rays and electromagnetic pulses generated by nuclear explosions. In addition,

In addition, inert gas should be injected into it to protect the graphene circuit board... I guess it is most likely a holographic image or recording, you will know after opening it."

As he spoke, Yin Fang stretched out a knife from his right hand without waiting for Chu Guang's signal, and lightly scratched the surface of the box.

A magical scene happened.

The moment the surface material was scratched, the layer of black paint wrapped around the box dispersed like gravel in the wind, revealing the silver shell underneath.
