HPMRS CH 128: Xiaoqing!

With the planting of energy coffee beans, the energy tower can finally resume full-power operation. This also means that the strength of the shelter of the mountain villa has been increased by several times.

After solving all the survival problems, Preston once again proposed to rebuild the militia. This time everyone expressed their support. Because the stronghold now has enough food, clean water (after enough energy, the water purification tower was quickly built), and enough arms (a few automatic machine gun towers are installed at the door, and then on the robot. There are a lot of weapons). The only thing lacking is people.

Nate came back to visit his wife once in the past week, he carried back a lot of things with two two-headed cows. After staying for one night, Nate hurried away again with enough supplies and more rune stones. But Nora told Ryan that Nate had already investigated who was the one who snatched their child back then. This time, he came back to replenish some resources and then went to settle accounts.

Nate also talked about the rune stones and how great they were, that they're easy to use and effective, it's just that their quality is low.

In addition, Nate promised to help promote the stronghold outside and help recruit people.

It's just that Nate's promotion alone will be too slow to recruit people. At this time, Preston's plan to rebuild the militia fits the current situation.

And according to Nate, there are a few villages nearby that need to be dealt with.

...

Suddenly news came from the Myriad Realms General Store that the mutant Snapdragon he had raised before had finally matured.

Ryan opened the space door to take out the pot to see what the new plant looked like, but as soon as the space door opened, a green shadow came out.

When the shadow stopped in front of him, Ryan realized that it was a little snake about one meter long in front of him.

Fortunately, Ryan had a spiritual link with it and thus confirmed the identity of the little snake. This snake is a new plant cultivated by this mutant Snapdragon.

Is it really a plant? Ryan waved his wand in surprise and began to check. After all, there was a snake in front of him, and there were no plant traits at all. But the results of the inspection surprised him, this snake is a special magic plant.

It can expand to the size as big as 13 basilisks, or it can be shrunk to the size of an earthworm and can secrete a liquid that has both the toxicity and petrochemical ability of the basilisk. At the same time, this snake can divide itself into dozens of clones, and as long as any clone survives, it won't die. Even if it is injured, it only needs sunlight and water to recover.

More importantly, because it is a magic plant. It has strong enough resistance to survive in this strong radiation world.

"Well, you are my pet now. Although I think it's a bit strange that a Gryffindor's pet is a snake. By the way, I'll give you a name now." Ryan said, holding the snake in his hand.

After choosing several names, the snake finally agreed to the name Xiaoqing (Xiao meaning little and Qing meaning green, as it is a little plant in reality). It seems that raising a pet with a high IQ may not be as simple as imagined.

The arrival of Xiaoqing became a great piece of good news, and Ryan was full of confidence in the completion of this mission.

...

After bringing a bunch of robots to loose villages to complete the task, Ryan smoothly cleared multiple dens of raiders. With the help of the strong firepower of the steam robot and Xiaoqing's sneak attack. Both the raider groups in the Town and the Assembly Plant were beaten as easily as it is to take candy from a child, muhahahaha, ahem.

Ryan's large and small robots carrying the spoils of battle successfully returned to the shelter. Naturally, Ryan was also given the title of militia general by Preston, although the entire militia may now consist of less than ten people.

In the days that followed, some scattered residents went to the Sanctuary Villa to become settlers here. As the population increased, Sanctuary Villa also established its own industry: in the second week of Ryan's arrival in this world, a second energy tower was built. At the same time, a steelmaking plant and a small machinery plant were constructed using waste products from the steel waste soil as raw materials.

Soon the first steam robot produced locally was put into use. At this time, the soil where the first energy coffee bean was located had completely been purified from the radiation. Ryan used these coffee plants as a barrier and successfully interplanted Torchwood and sunshine sunflowers in the field.

With sufficient energy, the development of the base is getting faster and faster. By the third week, with the help of a large number of robots, the militia forces have been able to scout nearby radiation-linked settlements and successfully cleaned up the raider dens that used to harm civilians a lot and treated the civilians worse than slaves. Especially in the small town of Quincy. When Clint was surrounded and shot to death, Preston finally became drunk that night. Before he became drunk, he kept thinking about his companions who died in the small town of Quincy, finally, he was able to avenge them.

Finally, with the help of a large number of robots and magic, Ryan and the others defeated the Crab Queen with zero casualties and rebuilt the headquarters.

...

However, there have also been a lot of conflicts with the Brotherhood of Steel, because the Brotherhood of Steel believes that the technology they have is dangerous, and only BoS (Brotherhood of steel) can be trusted to have these technologies.

Ryan really has nothing to say about these people. It was indeed the nuclear technology that caused this land to become a wasteland. But it was the people at the time who really turned this land into a wasteland, and technology was just a tool of mankind. It is obvious that the Brotherhood of Steel is a crazy cult.

Not to mention the racist tendencies of the Brotherhood of Steel and the forcible collection of food. To protect the kind-hearted mutants and settlement residents from being robbed of food, the militia has clashed with the Brotherhood of Steel.

As a true militia general, it is naturally impossible for him to handle all trivial matters, not to mention that Ryan cannot stay here forever, so the usual trivial matters are naturally dealt under the command of Nora and Preston.

Ryan is only responsible for formulating the general direction and improving plants while using the magic of life and nature to purify every piece of land that joins the settlement of the Militia.

In addition, Ryan only did two specific tasks. One was to help the Captain to repair his Yangtze submarine and gave him a lot of steam technology drawings and improved seeds.

Watching the Yangtze submarine go further and further away, Ryan began to doubt the reality of everything, wasn't it just a game, was my previous life also a game somewhere or was it a background of some Si-fi movie.

Another thing was to go to Vault No. 81 and heal the injured children with potions. Ryan found a good trade partner for the militia, and also found himself a Pip-Boy and a medical research robot Curie. There is also a universal healing potion that was saved. Of course, all this data is transferred to Dave, and Ryan believed that Crazy Dave can recreate this potion, maybe they'll pop from plants.

...

One month after coming to the Wasteland, Ryan, who was watching everything go on track, was going to find the world's protagonist Nate to see what he could trade and go home. At this time, Nate came to Sanctuary Villa, hoping that Ryan would do him a favor.
