Fallout 4: The Wasteland Life of a Pillager

Chapter 167 Prototype Synthetic Dima

Arcadia, according to the atlas left by old Longfellow, was once an astronomical observatory, but is now used as a refuge by a group of synths who escaped from the academy.

There are no guards or turrets outside the observatory, and I don’t know whether the people here are carefree or stupid.

Maybe it’s because we are at the top of the mountain, there is little fog here, and the setting sun is emitting its afterglow to illuminate this place.

If there is nothing to do during normal times, Yi Beiwang would still have the leisure to trick these synthetic humans into doing work for him.

But now that he had discovered that there was something wrong with the island, he had to act quickly to avoid actually getting lost here.

Stick to your heart and don’t lose your way…Mr. Murphy’s prediction is indeed very accurate, but it would be better if she could explain it more clearly.

Yi Beiwang kicked open the door of Arcadia Observatory and saw more than a dozen second and third generation synths busy at work inside.

One of the second-generation synths with a very unique shape attracted his attention. So, that guy could be considered a second-generation synth.

The plastic skin on his body had already rotted away, leaving only his face slightly intact.

There were many vacuum tubes inserted on the back of his head and back, and there were many unfamiliar pendants on his body. He looked extremely weird.

Seeing Yi Beiwang coming, the second-generation synth didn't seem surprised. He just said to Yi Beiwang: "You know what? When I first came here through the fog, I heard the name Arcadia and I felt that this place was suitable for me. Arcadia, the ideal country."

"Dear traveler from afar, welcome to a place of simplicity, peace and mutual understanding. As long as you don't reject the synths, the synths won't reject you either."

Why do I feel like I am a character in a game, listening to the mandatory dialogue of an NPC?

Just don't make it a horror game.

Yi Beiwang nodded, looked at the second-generation synth, and asked, "Who are you? What's wrong with you? I've never seen a second-generation synth look like this."

"Dima, you can call me Dima. I am the prototype synth, different from other synths."

Dima said slowly: "I know my appearance may look scary, but please don't be afraid, I have no ill intentions."

"Dragon countryman, you have come here from such a long distance, what are you looking for?"

Yi Beiwang replied: "My name is Yi Beiwang. I am here to look for a synthetic human who is similar to you. His name is Nick, and he is a detective. May I ask if you have seen him?"

Hearing the name Nick, Dima's eyes changed for a moment, then he shook his head and said, "No, I haven't seen any Nick."

When Yi Beiwang wanted to ask something else, he suddenly felt a chill in his head again.

In the blink of an eye, Nick's back appeared in the aisle at the side. At this moment, he was being escorted by two synths and walking straight into the depths.

Yi Beiwang got angry instantly. I was talking to you calmly and reasonably, but you actually lied to me and did it so blatantly!

Nick, wait for me, I'm coming to save you!

Yi Beiwang directly took out his revolver, activated the replacement and flashed behind Dima, strangling his neck with one hand and pointing a gun at his head with the other hand.

Seeing this, the other synths wanted to raise their guns. Yi Beiwang shouted, "Don't move! I'll kill anyone who dares to move!"

Dima was not panicked. He just waved his hand to signal others to put down their weapons. Then he said to Yi Beiwang gently: "Mr. Yi, if you need any help, you can just tell me. There is no need to do this."

"By the way, was that the academy's technology? Has their teleportation technology improved again?"

Yi Beiwang ignored Dima and held him hostage to catch up with Nick.

With his inexplicable sixth sense, Yi Beiwang spotted Nick trying to pick the lock through a window.

The Nicks were all stunned and asked, "Brother Beiwang, why are you here?"

Yi Beiwang shot the door lock and asked, "Didn't you send a telegram asking us to come and rescue you? There is something wrong with this broken island. My robot is not usable yet. I can only come alone to rescue you."

Nick opened the door and walked out and said, "That's not right. What I sent was: Danger, don't come."

"I can still handle such a small matter, but thank you anyway. It's really hard for you to come all the way to save me."

Yi Beiwang smiled and said, "It's okay, send them all, buddy. By the way, why were you walking so fast in the corridor just now?"

Nick asked in confusion: "Ah? I've been locked up for two days and haven't been out yet? Did you see it wrong?"

Now it was Yi Beiwang's turn to be confused.

I was clearly wearing a gas mask, so I shouldn't be having hallucinations.

Shit, not only did the memories materialize, but all kinds of hallucinations began to appear.

But it's okay, it's just like the afterimage clues in a puzzle game, it can be of some help or something.

Just as he was thinking, Dima patted Yi Beiwang's arm and asked, "Excuse me, can you let me go? I feel like there's a current leaking from your body, and it's causing me discomfort."
