At this moment, the voice of a male mutant outside the house rang out, he spoke English, but unlike the Russian-speaking male voice before, this mutant's voice was very deep and deep, but there was still a sharp and hoarse tone at the end, which is a common characteristic of mutants' vocal cords after being damaged by radiation.

"Stop attacking!" The man shouted first in Russian, and then shouted at Qi Lin in English.

"I'm Ivan, a former captain of the 1st Infantry Division of the Far Eastern Fourth Army of the Eastern Military District of the Army of the Russian Federation, retired in 2020 and now the leader of this group of mutants, I think we can talk."

Qi Lin was stunned, he thought that the guy he persuaded to surrender at the beginning was Ivan, the leader of the mutants, but he didn't think that Ivan had another person, and he was also a retired Russian officer.

According to the regulations of the Russian army, the retirement age of officers at the rank of captain is basically around 40 to 45 years old, that is, this Ivan is now estimated to be in his sixties.

"What's wrong with you?" On the other side of Ivan's request to "talk", Qi Lin spoke, but he still did not put down the weapon in his hand, and the muzzle of the gun was always aimed at the door of the hole, while pricking up his ears to carefully listen to the movements of the mutants outside the house.

"Are you from Huaxia, Dongying, or Korean?" Ivan asked.

"Huaxia people." Qi Lin thought about it for a while, and told the other party the truth, to be honest, now in the wasteland, due to the gradual extinction of the form of the state in the old era, nationality is not so important now, and Qi Lin doesn't know why the other party is asking this.

"I don't think your marksmanship and tactical movements are like a civilian, so you should be a soldier or a mercenary, right?"

"It used to be." Since the other party reported himself to his family from the beginning, Qi Lin did not have any need to hide these unimportant information, not to mention, even if he didn't say it, Ivan had already seen it.

"So are you working for the consortium or for the money now? I think it's the latter, the big corporations wouldn't send a single person into Nerozsk to die—it's been hours since you got here, and we haven't seen anyone supporting you. So, you should have entered here by accident, right? ”

The former is a private army subordinate to the consortium, and the consortium is fully responsible for recruitment, training, and equipment, and the military salary is paid on time - of course, within the consortium, it is called "employee salary", and whenever the consortium has a task issued, no matter how difficult the task is, the private soldiers must carry it out.

The latter is a lone free mercenary or mercenary group, although most of the mercenaries serve those big conglomerates, but the relationship between the two parties is just a transaction.

"Neither, I'm working for myself." Qi Lin replied.

"Die for yourself? It's funny, but then again, I guess it's all a misunderstanding, there's no need for us to fight, and I even want to hire you if I can. Ivan continued.

"First of all, I don't accept anyone's employment, and secondly, I don't think mutants can coexist peacefully with a human, especially after I killed so many of you."

"Huh? What we hate is only those who make wars, and as for those who have been killed by you and you, they will soon return, and the pain of death is too small compared to the torture we have to endure every day. ”

After Ivan's explanation, Qi Lin learned that the mastermind did not have a limit on the number of three resurrections per mutant player, and since Ivan and the Far East E04 Vault where they were located died except for their group of mutants, there was no need to worry about food and drinking at all.

No matter how bad it is, they can open the shelter on their own and go to the real wasteland to find supplies.

Compared with players like Qi Lin, this group of mutants is really "playing games".

It is no wonder that several forces in the Far East do not have the slightest idea about Nerozsk, first, this area full of radiation itself is not of much value, and second, if this group of "unkillable" mutants is completely provoked, it is estimated that there will be no peace.

"I've told you so many things, and I've shown my sincerity, so what about your sincerity?" Ivan said loudly.

"I don't think this is a sign of sincerity, besides, I wonder why you choose to reconcile with me when you have an advantage?"

"I guess you should have the ability to [Radiation Immunity], right?"

Qi Lin didn't answer, it was a tacit acquiescence.

"Underground in Nerozsk, there is a warehouse left over from the former Soviet Union, but we don't know what's inside, the radiation concentration near the warehouse is extremely high, if you can help us open it, I can not only let you leave Nerozsk safely, but also allow you to take the three things inside." Ivan said.

"Are you mutants still afraid of radiation?" Qi Lin asked a little strangely.

"Of course...... We are human beings as well, it's just that radiation changes the ...... in our bodies Some things, the environment is fine now, but if we get close to the warehouse, the change in our body will accelerate a thousand times more, we have tried many times, but every time we haven't reached the warehouse gate, our people will die violently in the middle of the way. ”

"And how high is the radiation concentration near the warehouse?"

"About 900, that's halfway to the data, and I estimate that there should be more than 1,200 at the gate - by the way, can I come in?"

Qi Lin hesitated for a moment before he spoke: "Okay, you come in, don't bring weapons, and don't bring people." ”

In a few seconds, a mutant man with a height of nearly one meter nine and a burly physique, but his whole body was wrapped in bandages, walked in from the door, and Qi Lin immediately pointed his gun at him.

Facing the muzzle of the black hole, Ivan's face under the bandage did not change at all, but he pulled a chair from the side that had been knocked off by a bullet and sat down five meters away from Qi Lin.

"Introduce myself again, Ivan, Ivan? Kotswich. ”

"You can call me 9527." Qi Lin nodded, and then asked: "The thing I am most curious about, why are you obsessed with a warehouse in the former Soviet era, the weapons and equipment sealed in that era were old and broken, and they have not been maintained for so many years, and they are estimated to have been scrapped." Moreover, your people are not short of guns, they are not short of food, and the things in the game world cannot be realistic, so why should you find a way to open that warehouse? ”

"Confirm, we just want to confirm what's in the warehouse."

"One thing I have to tell you is that the E04 vault in the Far East, where we are in reality, is fifteen kilometers north of Nerozsk, and in the war three years ago, the whole of Nerozhdsk was not attacked by nuclear weapons, and all the radiation here came from that warehouse, and it was that warehouse that caused us to become like this."

"You mean, the warehouse is filled with nuclear weapons from the Soviet era?"
