Doomsday Traveler

Chapter 212 The True Legacy of the Old World
Lu Xi'an really wanted a camera to capture Yao Wei's smile at this moment, but unfortunately he didn't have one.

He really wanted to grab a pen and draw Yao Wei's smile at that moment. He did have a pen, but the problem was that his drawing skills were terrible, and he might end up drawing Yao Wei like Peppa Pig. So he had to give up.

With no other choice, he could only deeply remember Yao Wei's smile at that moment.

"But before we leave, how about we stop here for a while?"

Lu Xian said.

Without the slightest hesitation or question, Yao Wei nodded and said, "Okay, you decide."

Lu Xi'an, who had originally intended to offer some explanation, paused for a moment, then thought for a second and revealed the reason: "The booklet in the drawer contains a special training program for Type A new humans. I just looked at it and it seems quite useful."

"To ensure our safety in the future, I think we can stay here for a while and practice according to the plan above."

"It also says that if there are Type C new humans, we can use them to train our resistance to pheromones."

"I have already given those bacterial strain injections to Luo Ping. He will arrange for people to be injected with them later. I don't know if anyone will evolve into a new type of human.

"If we have them, we can get new Type C new humans to help us develop resistance to pheromones. That way, we won't have to worry about Type C new humans as much as we do now."

"Ah."

Yao Wei nodded after hearing Lu Xian's words.

Indeed, their biggest worry right now is dealing with Type C new humans.

If our resistance to type G new humans is enhanced, we won't be so passive when facing type G new humans in the future.

They had been traveling north all along, but if they continued south, they would definitely encounter more new humans, making this training very necessary.

—Of course, this is on the premise that a Type C new human can be successfully born in Luo Ping's team.

As if remembering something, she added, "But if necessary, I will leave in advance."

"When?"

Lu Xian asked.

Yao Wei replied, "When my will is being worn down. It's too safe and comfortable here. If I stay here, I'm afraid my will will be worn down and I won't have the courage to leave."

"Ah."

Lu Xi nodded slightly. This woman had had similar concerns before, which was why she hadn't come here. Now, seeing how peaceful the situation was here, and how it had become secluded and safe thanks to the opening of Institute 923, her concerns had only deepened.

He said, "Then let's strengthen our will through focused training, and leave before our will is worn down."

"it is good."

Yao Wei nodded.

"Then it's decided. Let's get off the bus."

"Ah."

After they finished speaking, they both got out of the car.

The three people who had been peering out from the doorway quickly retreated inside. Once Lu Xi'an and Yao Wei went in, they stared at the two of them expectantly, wanting to know what decision the two had made in the car.

Of the three, only Luo Ping showed a slightly regretful expression, as if he was sighing for not being able to see the scene he had been looking forward to.

Lu Xi'an didn't speak to the others, but instead called out "System," summoned the mannequin, and asked, "Does this Institute 923 have any weapons?"

"some."

The man in the leather suit replied, "Since its commissioning, Institute 923 has deployed defense forces and fortified self-defense weapons at the external top entrance, corridors, and internal corridors. However, as the war intensified, the defense forces were withdrawn and deployed to the battlefield first."

"After the 923 Institute made initial progress in its research, we upgraded the base's self-defense weapons, which can compress and use Dyson sphere energy beams to launch high-energy attacks."

"We have also installed two energy beam launchers on the drone, which can compress and launch Dyson sphere energy beams for high-energy strikes."

So, do drones on external platforms not need bullets, or have "unlimited bullets" and can strike at any time?

"Then why aren't two cannons mounted on cars too?"

Lu Xian asked.

If the vehicle also had two cannons, that would be amazing.

The man in the suit replied, "That vehicle was made of ordinary materials combined with radiation-resistant lightweight composite materials. The proportion of high-strength materials was relatively low. Ensuring that it could withstand the energy load of the mechanical dog 02 for a long time was already the limit. It could not withstand the intensity of weapon use."

"That's it..."

Lu Xi'an nodded and asked, "But I've used the dog... the mechanical dog 02... to pass electricity through the circuits in other places, and nothing has happened."

"Different power supply methods result in different power supply strength and stability."

The man in the leather suit replied, "In response to the scarcity of materials, we proposed other solutions, such as using the Mechanical Dog 02 core module as the main component and adopting an overflow scheme to power ordinary circuit materials."

"After numerous adjustments, this is all that the Mechanical Dog 02 can do. If this solution can be implemented, we can remove the materials from the vehicle and mass-produce the core materials of the Mechanical Dog 02 to make them a power source."

"However, by the time the plan was completed and we were about to go into battle, there was no one left to approve or promote it. We eventually transmitted the plan back to base remotely and pre-set it, waiting for someone to activate the base and develop and promote it. But based on the information we've received so far, the plan has failed, and it has no chance of being implemented until civilization returns to its current level."

Lu Xi'an remained silent for a long time before saying, "That's a real pity..."

The man in the suit said, "Human civilization is made up of a lot of accidents, including the Dyson Sphere project back then."

"According to the overall development process of civilization at that time, it was actually far from the time to carry out the Dyson Sphere project, but the relevant technologies had unexpectedly achieved breakthroughs in key areas, making it possible to implement."

"Human civilization has come to this point, but a new human society is forming on the ruins."

"Don't regret the past, focus on the present and look to the future."

"Thank you."

Lu Xi'an smiled, never expecting that he would be taught by the AI ​​left here by the Old World Research Institute.

Behind him, Luo Ping nodded in agreement, but said nothing.

Lu Xi'an then asked the man in the leather suit, "Could I ask you to grant data entry permissions to the other people here?"

Luo Ping and the others were slightly taken aback.

The man in the leather suit said, "Okay. The 923 Institute system has three levels of permissions: highest level, secondary level, and visitor level."

"The highest level of authority has absolute control over the system. The second level of authority can enter all areas except the dispatch room. Visitors can enter the external space, but they need to apply for permission to enter the internal space and obtain the consent of the highest and second level authorities."

Lu Xi'an said, "Alright, I request that Luo Ping be given the highest level of access from Institute 923." As he spoke, he pointed to Luo Ping behind him, and then to Lao Shu and Chai Xin, "Give Lao Shu and Chai Xin secondary access. As for the other accesses, let Luo Ping distribute them from now on."

Luo Ping, Lao Shu, and Chai Xin were all stunned.

Chai Xin realized something and said sadly, "Big brother, big sister, you still have to leave..."

Lu Xi'an smiled and ruffled Chai Xin's hair, making his already messy hair look even more like a bird's nest: "We still have things to do. We'll come back when we're done."

"Oh……"

Chai Xin felt slightly relieved, but was still a little unhappy. However, she was very sensible and, no matter how unhappy she was, she wouldn't force anyone to do anything.

"Please have the person with the highest access privileges stand in front of this screen and look at the red dot in the center."

The person in the suit issues the command.

Lu Xi'an made way for Luo Ping, allowing Luo Ping to stand over.

Luo Ping didn't mince words; he simply took a deep breath and said to Lu Xi'an, "Thank you."

Lu Xi'an smiled and said, "You're welcome. If you can make this world a better place, then my life in this world will be much more comfortable, and everything today will be worthwhile."

Luo Ping stared intently at the red dot on the screen and said firmly, "I don't know if I can do it, but I will try my best."

Lu Xi'an said, "Yes, I will. I'll bring you something else later."

After Luo Ping came Chai Xin and Lao Shu.

After all three of them had completed the access control process, Lu Xi'an took out the four booklets from the drawer and said, "We'll take a look at these four booklets over the next couple of days, and then we'll give them to you after we've thoroughly read them."

"This document contains information on the ability training and usage methods of the four types of Newtypes, namely A, B, C, and D, as well as teamwork techniques. You should take a good look at it later."

"Old Tree can also take a look. You're practically a Type D Newtype too. Of course, it's not just about looking at your own part; you should also take a look at the others. This will help you understand other types of Newtypes, so you'll have a better understanding when you encounter them in the future."

Luo Ping hadn't seen these four books before, but after Lu Xi'an introduced them, his eyes widened: "Holy crap?! There are such good things?!" After his initial surprise, he nodded repeatedly and said, "You guys take a look first, you guys take a look first."

Lu Xi'an smiled and said, "We're not just here for nothing, we have something good for you. Come with me."

He walked out, followed by Yao Wei, Chai Xin, Luo Ping, and Lao Shu.

When they got to Yao Wei's car, Lu Xi'an opened the door and asked Yao Wei, "What do you plan to do with your car?"

Yao Wei blinked and said, "Give them to them. I'll hitch a ride with you from now on."

Lu Xi'an laughed: "What do you mean by 'hiding my car'? That sounds awful. That's both of our cars."

"Ah."

Yao Wei couldn't help but curl her lips into a smile again.

Lu Xi'an opened the car door, unloaded the items from the car, and said, "Help me move all these things to the new car later. But you don't need to worry about these—"

He pointed to two boxes and said, “There is a box of books here. Luo Ping, keep it safe and study it carefully in the future. In the end, get your people to study with you too. Pick out the ones who study well and train them well.”

"We can try asking the system about the key points later to see if it can explain them. If it can, that would be great."

"These are textbooks from the old world, recording knowledge from middle school to university. With these things, we can be said to have truly inherited the legacy of the old world."

Luo Ping exclaimed in surprise, "Holy crap?! Does that mean I can become a college student?!" The thought of becoming a college student made him feel incredibly awesome.
