Chapter 415
The quagmire of death was basically filled with swamps and forests, and it was filled with deadly miasma.
It was said that in the old era, this place used to be a lush primeval forest. There was a hidden underground military base dedicated to the study of biological viruses in the forest. However, it was attacked by a nuclear bomb on the day of reckoning, and all creatures within a radius of dozens of kilometers were killed. the unique terrain and radiation led to the accumulation of dead air and miasma, gradually forming a no man’s land. After that, the radiation and the leaking biological virus caused some shrubs and vines to mutate, gradually forming special biological forms such as the swamp Wanderer and the sludge monster.
Swamp Wanderers, venomous sludge monsters, and all kinds of mutated insects were the main force of life here.
although link had not been here in his previous life, he had read about the death swamp on the forum.
The players of Faye and Dragon City had received a hidden quest, which required them to return to the death swamp and search for the biological virus reagents left behind by the underground military base at that time to fight against the beast tide and the invasion of the dark forest. In the end, the players paid an extremely painful price and finally managed to retrieve the biological virus reagent from the underground military base.
After handing over the mission, they also learned about the history of the underground military base from the NPCs.
The predecessors of Dragon City and farnight were two of the superpowers of the old era. The reason why the underground military base was set up here was that this place used to be a meteorite crater, and a large number of Kaz crystals were found underground. After studying the Kaz crystal, it was discovered that it had a powerful inert ability that could isolate and prevent violent chemical reactions. Thus, it became the best material to store biological viruses, unstable explosives, and dangerous materials. It was also directly approved to build a secret military base.
As for the death quagmire, it was 60 kilometers away from the Urban area area of Shandu. If the air Base and airport at the border of Shandu were the starting point, it was only 40 kilometers away, which was not too far.
When he had killed alongso, link had been thinking about when he could go to the death quagmire.
The special miasma and virus environment had caused the ecological environment to change.
With the construction of ecosphere #1 in the Gobi Desert, link would be able to find a large number of regular wild animals and synthesize them at any time.
however, the mysterious creature in the death quagmire had a virus, and it had bred creatures that were completely different from the natural environment of wasteland.
this had never happened before in lin ke’s pet ” collection “. he could use this opportunity to expand his pet library.
Link placed his hands behind his back and looked at the giant tokamark ring that was releasing energy. He said,”You don’t have to worry about the raw materials. I’ll take care of it. The next focus will be on the construction of the large-scale Defense Force field. We’ll strive to complete it by the end of December and put it into operation.”
Link’s affirmation was the biggest praise for the two. Dave and Dr. Ludovic were both in high spirits.
don’t worry, general. The most crucial energy problem has been solved. As long as we get the full support of wind howl Castle, the divine Tree of Noxi, and Shenmu City, we can guarantee that the construction and installation of the large defensive force field will be officially operational by mid-December! Dr. Ludovic said with confidence.
link could hear the hidden meaning behind ludwig’s voice. the installation of wind howl castle and godwood city would not be a problem. Because the Noxi Divine Tree was related to the moon Shadow Council, some of the installation activities would be linked to the destruction of the divine Tree, so it would be difficult.
don’t worry, the entire installation process will be green. I will communicate with the people in charge in the three places to ensure that the large-scale Defense Force field operation will not be disturbed.
with link’s words of wisdom, dave and ludwig both heaved a sigh of relief. all that was left was to show off.
“How’s the construction of the data center going?” Link asked about another important underground facility.
This project was also jointly responsible for by Dave and Dr. Ludwig. Once completed, in addition to storing key data, the huge Computing Center would also become the distribution center of information and data analysis in Shandu. With the power provided by the tokamak device ring, it could ensure 24-hour operation.
together with the military intelligence department and the energy center, they formed the three most important core groups under weeping valley.
the construction of the data center is 95% completed, ” Dave replied. now, only some final storage equipment and circuits are left. We’re mainly waiting for the core energy. Now that the tokamark device was officially in effect, it could be officially used after the final debugging. According to the current progress, the spy mice will be able to upload the data from their bodies to the storage device in three days.”
Link nodded. Everything was going according to plan.
When Dave successfully extracted the plans and data obtained from the laboratory building in the machinery Palace, the machinery Faith’s technology leading the entire wasteland planet would become an advantage for Sandu.
After asking about work, link then asked a few more questions about life. Helen, are you used to life in godwood city? ”
At the mention of his granddaughter, Dave’s excited expression gradually softened, and there was a little more happiness in his eyes.
“Thanks to the boss, she’s doing very well now! Every day, there was a fragrant pig feast to nourish the body. The after-effects of being in the nutrient solution all these years had been resolved, and the body was growing and developing again every day. you’ve grown five centimeters in just one month!”
“That’s good. Are you used to life?” Link was very pleased to hear that the future mother Goddess was enjoying herself.
But speaking of this, Dave’s expression suddenly froze, and he looked at Dr. Ludwig next to him for help. The doctor pushed up his glasses and didn’t know what to say. The atmosphere between the three suddenly became a little awkward.
“What’s wrong? is it hard to say?”
Dave scratched his head with an embarrassed expression.”It’s not that Yingluo is alone in Shenmu City. She’s not willing to stay with me and insists on following me, so I brought her to the Research Center. This is my fault. After today, I’ll make sure she stays at home and never comes to the Research Center.”
Dave and Ludwig both knew that crying Valley was a secret project, whether it was the Research Center or the data center.
only dave, the first laboratory in shatu, and penny, the director of the lin’s financial group responsible for the allocation, knew about it. the other departments had no idea about the underground plan in weeping valley.
Now, Dave had brought his granddaughter Helen in without permission. According to the rules, he would be punished, and the project might have a risk of leakage.
Hearing Dave’s explanation, Link’s expression changed several times. In the end, he only said, ” “what does she do in the research center?”
Dave looked flustered and quickly explained, ” “I didn’t let her run around, so I built an empty room for her and gave her some materials and books to entertain herself. after that, i’ll call her to go home with me every day after work.”
Dr. Ludovic also spoke up for Dave, ” “General, Dave is telling the truth. Helen never leaves the house. She usually stays in the house and only asks for some books and basic materials to play in the room.”
“Let’s go,” said link, raising a hand.”We’ll take a look.”
dave lowered his head and sighed.
professor ludovic also looked helpless.
The two of them walked in front and led link to a room at the end of the tunnel.
“this room was originally planned to be a storage room. However, there were not many employees in the Research Center, and they had not moved in on a large scale yet, so it had been empty. Originally, I wanted to put Helen in the room a little further in front, but Dave rejected the proposal and still put Helen in this room in the corner.” Ludwig was still trying to explain Dave’s innocence.
Link raised his hand and interrupted him.”Open the door now.”
dave’s back and shoulders visibly bent down, and his spirit and energy were like a deflated balloon.
Opening the door slowly, Dave saw Helen, who was fiddling with the machine with her head lowered.
At that time, she didn’t have any reaction. She was holding a book in one hand and fiddling with the machine she had assembled with the other.
Dave pretended to cough a few times to attract Helen’s attention.
“Grandpa, uncle Ludovic, general!” Helen’s eyes brightened, and she quickly put down the tools and books in her hands. The smile on her face was like the sun in spring, enough to warm up the ice.
“Why are you all here?” Helen asked in excitement.
dave stared at helen, his eyes full of reluctance, but he couldn’t bear to let helen, who had just escaped from machinery city, know the cruel truth, so he quickly said, ” “General Lin came to inspect the work today. He knew you were here, so he came to take a look.” After saying that, Dave turned to look at link with a pleading expression, hoping that link would not announce his punishment in front of the children.
“Thank you for remembering me, general Lin,” Helen nodded and thanked him.”Thank you for taking time out of your busy schedule to visit me. In addition, I would like to thank you for providing the fragrant pig feast. My body has recovered very well now!”
Link stared at Dave, then turned his eyes to Helen. He cast detect.

Seeing Helen’s leveling speed, which was as fast as a rocket, link was shocked.
Helen was only Level 2 when he saved her. However, in just a short month, she was already level 20.
this leveling speed completely crushed the majority of players.
In destiny, players used experience points to level up, while NPCs used something called experience points to level up.
Helen spent every day reading in her room and tinkering with machinery. In a month, she had completed a feat that many players could not.
It could only be said that there were accidental factors, but there were also inevitable reasons, to become the mother machine goddess.
“I’m here to see you, and also …” Link looked at Dave and said honestly,”I’m here to see you. I heard Dave broke the rules by bringing you into a secret organization like the Research Center.
hearing the words “arbitrarily substituted” and “breaking the rules,” helen’s face turned pale and bloodless. she immediately said, ” it’s not like that. Grandpa didn’t bring me here on his own accord. I was the one who insisted on pestering Grandpa to come here. This matter isn’t his fault. It has nothing to do with him. If general Lin wants to punish someone, then punish me!
What happened next was a scene of the grandfather and grandson having a good relationship and fighting to take the blame.
Link watched as the two of them tried to absolve each other of their crimes while taking the blame for themselves. If this continued, they might even commit suicide to apologize.
Dave, you have a great granddaughter!
“You’re the one who brought him in, so you should be the one to receive this punishment.”
When Dave heard this, his entire body relaxed. He smiled and replied, ” “No matter how you punish me, boss, I’m willing to do it.”
“You’re willing to do anything?”
“En!”
then I’ll punish you. Teach Helen all the machinery knowledge you have, and let her join the subsequent research and development plan.
other than link, dave, ludwig, and helen were all stunned.
They did not expect this to be Link’s punishment.
Dave’s mouth was slightly open. He wanted to say something several times, but he didn’t know what to say.
Ludwig was also stunned, unable to understand the intention of this punishment.
Helen stood rooted to the ground, staring into Link’s deep, black eyes. She felt as if her secret had been discovered.
“Boss, are you joking or hehe?”
Before Dave could finish, link pointed to the work desk in front of Helen and said, ” “Before you question my decision, you might as well first understand what your granddaughter has been doing here all alone every day.”
dave stepped forward, opened the book, and saw the items on the table. his eyes suddenly widened, and his eyes were about to pop out.
“This bi an …”
On the table was a tiny tokamark reaction device the size of a palm.
Dave picked it up and took a look. An electromagnetic force suddenly surged out of his palm, flowing through the entire device and peeking at its structure.
Helen lowered her head like a child who had done something wrong, twisted her hands together, and said timidly, ” “I saw Grandpa and Dr. Lu lose their appetite because of this thing and couldn’t sleep at all. I saw them holding the blueprint and thinking about it all day long, so I thought I could help, Chenchen.”
Dr. Ludwig confirmed that the blueprint had been in the hands of Dave and himself, and that it was in the Research Center and had not been taken out. The only opportunity Helen had every day was when she came in the morning and left at night. She could only see the device blueprint for a few seconds on the experimental table.
you just took a few glances and created this device yourself? ” Ludwig’s eyes fell. At least this tokamark device looked no different from the giant equipment they had built.
Helen nodded like a chicken pecking at rice. ” but because there is no reaction, i don’t know if this thing i made can be activated. ”
A moment later, Dave’s mouth was slightly open, and his heartbeat suddenly accelerated. He suddenly asked, ” “helen, you modified the internal reaction ring of the tokamark device? It’s half a centimeter more than the blueprint standard, and the gap here is two millimeters more.”
Oh, ” Helen said, ” well, it’s because the polishing tools I have are not precise enough, but in order to let the activated energy pass through smoothly, I modified the internal size. I tried to light it up with electromagnetic force and found that it worked. But after the reaction was added, I don’t know what happened.”
dave and dr. ludwig looked at each other, only shock remained in their eyes.
Helen, a fifteen-year-old child, had managed to solve a problem that even they had no idea how to solve without any external interference and with zero basic knowledge. She had managed to miniaturize the tocamark device by learning and practicing from a room full of books.
Dave’s hands were filled with electromagnetic force as he injected energy into the device.
Then, the tokamak device ring in his palm lit up and emitted a blue energy glow.
