Chapter 82: Lord Fu
(Thanks to Mengmeng Rabbit Jam for her reward)
"...I always feel that I haven't used the mc system so wholeheartedly to solve problems..."
This time, even Leeds, who likes to be dying the most, did not choose to run to the three [Holographic Security] patrol routes to play the game of searching for things. Well, it is impossible to deny that this "agent infiltration game" is very exciting and interesting, but now he was hung up and beaten up, he really doesn't want to relive the burning sensation immediately.
So Leeds chose to drag his teammates to pass the level in a sense using a very dirty method... Well, although he doesn't know what the principles of these [holographic security guards] are, but they don't seem to be able to see the living person directly, and they will not have the so-called "warning" state, and will only move back and forth according to the route set by the program. In this way, it is easy to get loopholes in the rule. When it is carrying it over the body, it just piles up a wall and searches for possible "projection instruments" behind the wall.
After solving the only obstacle after entering the underground in such a almost non-risk manner, they came to the bottom - no, maybe there was something below, maybe there was still the entrance to the real living area of this underground shelter, but it was just covered by thick reddish-brown poisonous fog... It seemed that the poison gas in the valley was evacuated from here.
But that doesn't matter anymore, because Leeds and the others found what they wanted.
"That's all?" Lyon frowned at the golden bricks piled up with an office desk.
When he heard what he said, even Claus couldn't help but look at him with a scrutiny look, "...Lyon, I know your income is high, but it is so high?" Let's say, how much are you greedy?
"I have so much money and I still have to work as a grassroots agent?" Lyon said angrily, "Just watch TV. Isn't this a little bit of gold in the mountains that are just a few people? The boy said that this is the place with the most gold in the Mohavi area, and I thought it would be of that scale."
"They just open a casino, not a gold mine..." Leeds walked to the desk where gold was placed, casino chips and pre-war banknotes were placed, picked up a gold brick and threw it into the backpack of the mc system... The process was very calm. There was no way, gold in the main world was almost the most useless resource, and Leeds really couldn't look at this metal directly from the perspective of "luxury goods".
“…Hmm?”
"What's wrong?"
"No, nothing..." It's a bit surprising but not surprised. "I originally thought that this gold brick would be defined as a 'gold ingot' by the system, but I didn't expect it to be defined as a 'gold brick'... Is it an adjustment made because of the difficulty of obtaining gold in another world?" It's like if the "iron ingot" cannot be found in the city, it is replaced by large pieces of unfinished steel.
“That is,…!”
"Yes, a piece of gold brick can decompose nine 'gold ingots'," or nine gold bars. "A piece of gold brick can synthesize a golden apple to transform the super mutant back... Of course, if the golden apple really has that effect."
"...Is only eight gold bars needed... But, the reserves of gold..." Lyon suddenly pondered.
"Hey, split, the rules of this world are not necessarily the same as yours~" Leeds knew that splitting was considering the problem of his own world. The cost of saving eight gold bars and saving eight gold bricks is very different... Although, as long as the information that gold can save people is disclosed, the essence of the problem will not change, "In short, give me the apple first."
"...ah, sorry." Leeds said this, and Lyon felt that he was thinking too far. After a smile, he apologized and pulled out the apple from his backpack and threw it to Leeds.
"Receive..." Leeds himself put out another workbench and slowly mobilized his ability. "The gold bricks are quickly decomposed into gold ingots, gold ingots and apples... Synthesize gold apples--Okay!"
Rather than saying "golden apple", it is better to say that "golden apple" appears in Leeds' hands.
"... Can this thing be bitten?" Clausa pretended to be indifferent, but did not come and speak immediately as soon as the Golden Apple appeared?
"How do I know? I haven't eaten it before...Fox, this is the first golden apple I synthesized. Slowly taste the taste and write me a thousand words of food aftertaste." Leeds directly threw the golden apple at the super mutant who had been fooling since the beginning.
(Bang!) Seeing the golden apple flying over, Fox was so scared that he even threw away the laser Gatlin, and closed his hands together to catch it with a gentle movement that did not match the five words "Super Mutant".
"This, this... is the golden apple that makes me... turn back to humans!" The super mutant voice line who has always been very excited, now the excitement coefficient has increased three times. "Leeds! As long as I eat it directly, can I become humans immediately!"
"No, according to the original setting, it will take a day or two... I don't feel comfortable in the process~" Whether it's from a normal human to a super mutant, or from a super mutant to a normal human, Leeds feels it will hurt!
"...Is that just that..." However, this disadvantage seems to be worthy of being taken to Fox in his heart. He just stared at the golden apple with a metallic luster in his hand.
After a while,
"...Leeds, can you keep it for me?" To everyone's surprise, Fox held the golden apple and sent it to Leeds.
"?" Fox has expressed his attitude so many times before, and he could not be so cowardly that he said, "Why don't we find a test piece to see the effect first?" Leeds still believed this, so he took the Golden Apple and waited for explanation.
Fox did not betray his expectations, "Now I am the only super mutant who knows that he is a human!...I want to go to Jacob's town and eat golden apples in front of those super mutant companions who can get along well with humans. The gold bricks here can turn dozens of super mutants back into humans!"
“…!”
"Oh, Clausa, does it feel like you're being crushed on a moral level by a super mutant?!"
"…Shut up, American agent."
Helplessly, the super mutants have always appeared as "enemy" in front of them. Except for Fox, there is no super mutant that reminds people of humans... Of course, the super mutants I never met in Jacob's town that I have never been to, naturally did not enter their rescue list.
However, Fox, who had just arrived from the East Coast to the West Coast and had never been to Jacob's town and had never known the super mutant there, thought of it! Perhaps this is not just because he is now "a member of the victim of the Fev". He has been in this wasteland for a long time, and even Leeds and the others have begun to become cold.
"Woooo, Fox, let's call you Mr. Fu in the future! Your personal charm will always alert us to the direction we are moving forward!"
