Chapter 70 The Truth



As it turned out, the person in charge of this shelter was actually a robot. He asked such a question without any suspicion.

“Is this a limitation of the robot?”

Such a thought flashed through his mind.

As he spent more time with 2003, he discovered that, although its intelligence was very high, it also had its flaws, and it was often unable to respond to things that were beyond the scope of its database.

Obviously, this S01 robot, even if its intelligence level is higher than that of 2003, cannot escape this limitation.

After figuring this out, he was overjoyed, realizing that this was an opportunity that could resolve all the doubts in his mind.

At this time, S01 extended an invitation, "You two, please come in."

The two of them had come here, even if it was a dangerous place, they had to go in. They followed it calmly and walked into the passage.

In the passage, there was only a small area above their heads that was lit with a faint light. The front was deep and dark, with no end in sight.

As they moved forward, the lights in front of them kept lighting up, and then they quickly dimmed after they passed.

This even gives people the illusion that they are standing still.

Yang Jinxia remained calm on the surface, but her body unconsciously moved closer to Chen Xu. Finally, she couldn't help but ask, "Why are these lights so dim?"

As he spoke, his voice echoed in the corridor, sounding a bit disgusting.

S01 answered as he walked, "To save energy."

She continued, "Is the shelter short of energy?"

"Yes."

After hearing this, Chen Xu finally understood some of the strange things about this shelter: why was there only one light on? And why didn't they send a car to pick them up, but instead let them walk in.

It turns out that it was all due to lack of energy.

So, the reason why it was so polite to me and answered all my questions was probably because of the energy core.

It seems that the condition for entering this copy is not to defeat the BOSS, but this energy core.

He took the opportunity to ask, "Doesn't this shelter have the technology to make super-energy batteries?"

S01 replied, "Originally there were only five super-energy battery manufacturing centers in the world. After the war, all of them were destroyed. To this day, the headquarters of the United Army cannot be rebuilt."

Chen Xu suddenly realized that super energy batteries were non-renewable resources. No wonder most people in the shelter had to move away. The land here was so severely desertified that without sufficient energy supply, it was impossible to support so many people.

He continued to ask, "Who were the warring parties in the war you mentioned, and when did it happen?"

Yang Jinxia, ​​who was standing next to him, heard his question and couldn't help but glance at him.

S01 was unaware and replied, "One hundred and fifty years ago, the three major powers in the world fought a war to compete for the raw materials for making super-energy batteries. The war soon spread to the whole world. In the end, the war lasted for more than ten years, all the cities were destroyed, and 70% of the population died."

The sound it made was mechanical, without any fluctuations in tone or emotion. In such an environment, Chen Xu and the others felt heavy in their hearts as they listened.

The two were silent for a while, and in the corridor, there were only the sounds of their own footsteps and S01's.

After a while, Chen Xu continued to ask.

"Just after the war ended, mutated animals suddenly appeared all over the world and crazily attacked the surviving humans. Later, humans collectively called these mutated animals "exotic beasts."

"To this day, humans still cannot figure out the origins of these strange beasts. They are extremely aggressive and more ferocious than wild beasts in nature. Individual strange beasts are not scary. The scariest thing is their reproductive ability. In the A020 ​​shelter alone, more than one billion strange beasts have been killed in the past 100 years."

"How the alien beasts reproduce so quickly is still a mystery. We have captured many alien beasts and conducted various experiments, but we still haven't found anything."

"Later, humans discovered that the existence of strange beasts would cause devastating damage to the environment..."

Chen Xu listened to its introduction and finally had a general understanding of the background of this world. This solved a mystery in his mind.

In this case, there shouldn't be any supernatural monsters in this world, and the risk factor is much lower. As long as he is not surrounded by a large number of strange beasts, it is not difficult for him to survive in the wild with his marksmanship.

Given the current situation in this area where the land is desertified and plants are almost extinct, there definitely won't be many exotic animals living here. After all, exotic animals still need to eat.

"I've heard of your G5232 shelter."

Just as Chen Xu was thinking about these questions, S01 suddenly spoke.

He looked up in surprise. This topic was a bit abrupt. It was not his style at all.

"You have used all your precious resources for pleasure. To this end, you have built more than 500 plantations and more than a dozen meat synthesis factories. You have wasted a lot of energy just on food..."

As S01 was speaking, the view in front of him suddenly became open, and he finally walked out of the passage and entered the hall.

Chen Xu looked around. It was empty everywhere. There was nothing there. It looked even cleaner than the emptied G5232 shelter.

"...The destruction of your shelter was expected." S01 continued.

Chen Xu could more or less understand the feelings of the people in the A020 ​​shelter. Along the way, he had seen that they were living in extreme poverty in order to resist the siege of the alien beasts.

They were so destitute that they didn't even have the energy to clean up the corpses outside the wall, and just left them to rot there.

They were so poor that they couldn't even afford to turn on an extra light. Life was so miserable.

In comparison, the G5232 shelter should not have suffered much attack from strange beasts, so it had the leisure to build hundreds of planting warehouses, where all kinds of food, staple food, miscellaneous grains, vegetables, fruits, spices, etc. were grown.

There are also more than a dozen meat processing factories, so there is never a shortage of pork, beef, mutton, chicken, etc.

In addition, various beverage processing plants, wine processing plants, etc. have been built.

To the people in the A020 ​​shelter, this kind of life is like heaven.

Moreover, it is very likely that it is because A020 ​​has attracted most of the hatred that the G5232 shelter has been able to hide behind it safely and live a happy life without worries about food and drink.

A020 Shelter, I'm afraid they have long disliked the people from G5232.

It is not surprising that the people in G5232 shelter were wiped out. They have been living too comfortably and have no sense of crisis. When faced with a sudden crisis, they don't know how to deal with it.
