As Oliver's marines guessed, below was a pre-war shelter.
From the moment he entered the tunnel, he could smell the strong smell of blood. There are various signs that this place has become a place of worship for these mutants many years ago, and the walls are covered with various chilling patterns with blood and grease.
However, what Oliver and his teammates didn't expect was that, apart from some infiltrated skeletons, they actually found a broken hibernation capsule and a still working clone in this shelter. Nurturing device!
This human cloning device contains 24 compartments, and even immature embryos can be seen in these compartments.
Perhaps because it was built too early, the biological technology used in this cultivation device is not very advanced, and it has not had time to update.
Even with sufficient energy and raw materials, it would take the device at least three months to develop into a baby, and seven months for him to develop into a teenager.
The builder of this shelter probably considered the extreme situation of the sparse population after the war, and hoped to use cloning technology to transport people to the post-war society, and even equipped the facility with a guide and a refrigerated hibernation chamber.
However, the dormant capsule has been broken for many years, and the people inside have long since disappeared.
The mutants occupying this place seem to regard this facility as some kind of "Miracle".
Just pour in the "Ingredients", press the switch, and wait another 10 months, and you will be able to harvest a white and tender human being.
To them who are bloodthirsty, ignorant, and barbaric, this miraculous phenomenon is indeed no different from a gift from the gods.
As for these clones who came out of the training cabin, the males would generally be eaten by them in various ways, while the females would be eaten in another sense.
Due to the unstable technology used, there are many branches of mutants.
Among the two main branches, one is the eunuchs without reproductive organs. They cannot reproduce through traditional methods, and need to use human babies and culture tanks to "Make" the same kind.
Although the other type has reproductive organs, but because they only acquired a mutated Y chromosome, this type of mutant has no females and needs human egg cells to reproduce.
If the pairing is X and X, the resulting fetus will be human, but the probability of this is very small. And if the pair is X and Y, then the resulting fetus is a mutant cub.
Once the latter situation occurs, most of the mothers will die of dystocia, and few people can survive. And even if they survived, the mutants would eat them very quickly, after all, the human beings who lost their reproductive function were no different from food to them.
Generally speaking, the former category of mutants are the earliest mutants, usually with a certain degree of civilization. According to legend, a long time ago, they even retained the moral values of the pre-war society, knowing how to control the number of their own groups, to prevent more people from becoming victims of "Unfinished technology"... Although this fragile moral code did not persist for a few years.
The latter type of mutants are pure savages, and they are also the type with the fastest reproduction speed and the largest number. It is said that they are the ancestors of the former mutants, the result of genetic engineering efforts, but obviously they did not solve the fundamental problem, or they only solved their own problems.
In either case, one thing is certain, these green-skinned brutes look like tumors.
It is no exaggeration to describe them as cancer of civilization. If they are really allowed to rule this planet, then the only end for human beings may be to be reduced to their domestic animals and be raised in captivity as food and reproductive tools.
"... Twenty-four cabins, on average, they can harvest a fresh human being every half a month. In the past ten years or even decades, the clones born from that device have been repeating with a hopeless birth to death."
The reception room of the outpost.
Oliver, who came back from the mutant tribe, chatted with Lucius about what he had seen and heard in the mutant tribe with emotion.
When he heard that Captain Oliver blew up the place after taking pictures to collect evidence, Lucius finally couldn't help but cursed prodigal in his heart.
However, with a high EQ, he still said something politely.
"Nice job."
Oliver nodded and readily accepted the compliment.
"Thank you for the compliment. I think this is what every human being with a conscience will do. We cannot let this technology fall into the hands of other people."
Lucius: "Would it be a bit absolute to say that, what if this kind of technology falls into the right hands? At least the technology itself is innocent."
Oliver smiled lightly and said: "What is the right thing? Slaves? Barbarians? Predators? A breeding ground for mutants? Or an organ source? Technically speaking, mature embryo culture technology can produce embryos within a month. An adult, but this does not mean that he can immediately have the mind of an adult. Even if we can actively input a large amount of information to them, the human brain has a limit to the intake and processing speed of information, and some things It has to be built when the brain is still immature."
"I'm not an expert in this area, and I can't discuss the theoretical possibilities with you, but as far as I've seen, very few people use this kind of thing in the right place..."
While talking, Oliver suddenly remembered an important matter, and put a round tube the size of a fist on the table beside him.
Just as Lucius wanted to ask what it was, Oliver continued to speak.
"This is the fusion battery I found in that shelter. Don't be nervous... This kind of cold fusion battery is very safe. As long as it doesn't melt down, you can even put it under your pillow."
Lucius: "This joke is a bit cold."
Oliver laughed and said: "Maybe! I'm not very good at telling jokes. This model is very common in civilian shelters. Although it can't be used in nuclear fusion reactors in shelters, I heard that in some shelters, there is an emergency power supply compatible with this type of battery? We won't be able to use it anyway, but I think you might. However, after all these years of use by those mutants, it's only 11% charged, I'm afraid it can't be of much help."
"It's not bad to have 11%," Lucius stretched a smile on his face, and put the battery away decisively, "Thank you, it was a great help!"
...
Although it is a battery that requires professional equipment to use, it is better than nothing.
What if it is used someday?
Lucius also has an access card for shelter 117, which he got from Sumeria. If that shelter runs out of power, at least this battery will keep it up and running again for a while.
After leaving the battery here, Oliver took his team members to leave, and Lucius politely sent them to the gate of the outpost.
It was getting late. According to Captain Oliver himself, after going back tonight, he has to write a report explaining today's actions, where he and his team members used the ammunition, and explaining the need to do so.
Lucius could probably tell that Captain Oliver was a man full of justice.
At least it is chaotic good that "Does what you think is right", or lawful neutral that "Acts impartially".
However, Lucius is actually more inclined to the former judgment. After all, he was finally persuaded by himself and broke the rule of not intervening in local disputes.
Besides, what about the embryos that developed to different stages of life in the cloning facility that he bombed? And what about the poor people who conceived mutant children?
Of course Lucius wouldn't ask, and Oliver didn't say anything either.
But he felt that the man in front of him would probably decisively end the suffering of those poor people, and send away the lives in the cultivation tank that hadn't opened their eyes.
Lucius only felt that it was a good thing that this guy was not a lawful and kind Virgin, and he didn't send him the troubles that he couldn't take care of. Otherwise, he really doesn't know how to deal with it more appropriately...
Seeing those non-communicable NPCs go away, seeing [ WC Really Has Mosquitoes ] equipped on them, he couldn't wait to walk to Lucius and asked.
"Dear Master Manager, may I ask who those people are..."
"Guests from afar, they have encountered a little trouble, and it is estimated that they will stay here for about half a month."
After leaving this sentence, Lucius turned around and returned to the outpost, and took the elevator back to the shelter.
It was already seven o'clock in the evening on the side of the wasteland, exactly twelve hours' time difference from the side of the real world.
Many young players who had to go to work during the day had already gone offline one after another at this time, and went to the forum to fish for fish.
As a planner, Lucius should also work.
Turn on the computer and log in to the official website.
Not surprisingly, the official website has become lively.
Tail: "Shocked! Did you see those tin cans?? (*゜Д゜)"
Richest Elf King: "I saw it! It first appeared at the north gate of the base? Then it went out through the east gate. It seems to go to the east of Wetland Park?"
Yaya: "I, I, I saw it too! Just before they left, they bought a bowl of mushroom soup from me, but they gave me paper money... I didn't dare to say anything. I'm can only wait to go online in a hurry to ask to you guys, who knows how to use the paper that says 100CR?(^_^?)"
Edge Paddle: "Yes! The east side of Wetland Park! They were here just now! They fought with those mutants!"
The Boy On The Construction Site: "What the fuck? Power armor vs. mutants? Tell me, who won?"
Edge Paddle: "Isn't this nonsense? It's a massacre! Hey, the planning father probably realized that mutants are too difficult, so he recruited a group of full-level bosses to come out and kill them for the plot."
Yaya: "No one knows?! (;;;・_・)"
Irena: "I don't know, how about I exchange it with you for 1 silver coin? ( ꈍᴗꈍ)"
Yaya: "Do you think I'm a fool! (#｀Д′)?"
Tail: "To be honest, Tail wants one! Is it too late to start saving now? (o?▽?)o"
Sisi: "Tail, wake up, you have no money."
Tail: "!!!∑(?Д?ノ)ノ"
WC Really Has Mosquitoes: "Isn't it? I just said that the strength of this mutant is a bit outrageous! Such a big pile of rockets can't be blown up! Is this reasonable?"
Killing Chicken At Midnight: "(◣◢)┌∩┐!"
WC Really Has Mosquitoes: "%￥#@!"
Mole In The Hole: "Rational analysis, the content of this in-game update is probably to complete the sci-fi part of the game background, and at the same time balance the strength of mutants. After all, let a group of rookies with an average level of less than 5 go to a group of green-skinned muscular guys who went up to level 20, no matter how you think about it, it’s too outrageous! The place here is too small, I will open a separate post to talk about it later."
Looking at the exciting discussion posts in the forum and the analysis posts sent by big players, Lucius, who was thinking about how to write the Alpha 0.7 update announcement, couldn't help but a smile appeared on his face.
I didn't know how to make up a story, then just wait. Isn't this coming?
Very nice.

[ Background of the "Land Boating" expansion piece: A land-based fortress named Pioneer broke down 10 kilometers north of the shelter. They came from the far east coast and went west in search of hope. Although we have chosen different paths from them, we have all solemnly sworn an oath under the banner of the People's Federation. ]
[ Introduction to the expansion pack: During the duration of the expansion pack, a new task system and event gameplay will be unlocked. A land fortress named "Pioneer" will be refreshed in the northern part of the outpost, and the NPC of "First Pioneer Corps Quartermaster" will be added to the outpost.
Sign up at the quartermaster NPC, you can go to the camp ten kilometers away to support our allies, and unlock the exclusive mission of the expansion pack during the event. The number of players for each reinforcement operation is limited to a maximum of 200 players, which will be rotated after three days.
In addition to generous rewards for completing tasks, there are also activity points that can be collected. After the expansion is over, the event points can not only be used for lucky draws and exchange for prizes, but the top ten players also hope to unlock limited titles and mysterious gifts from allies! What could it be? I am also looking forward to your plan. ]
