This Game Is Too Realistic

Outpost, west entrance.

Inside the wooden barn.

A huge creature was lying on the ground, its huge tail curled up into a ball, and its amber pupils wandering around lazily.

Anyone born and raised on this continent, whether they are awakened people or ordinary people, will instinctively feel fear when they see this guy, and will be inspired by the strong man who can defeat and surrender this thing. I admire you from the bottom of my heart.

As one of the existences at the top of the food chain in the wasteland, the Deathclaw is definitely a T1 or even T0 level existence in terms of strength, speed, stealth, and physique.

It's so powerful to be able to restrain this thing with several chains and a collar!

But...

This deathclaw showed that it had been fed some salted fish. The fierceness in its eyes had obviously been replaced by laziness, and its temper was not as bad as before coming here.

What's the use of being fierce?

Most people here are not very afraid of it.

Especially the human being dressed in iron pimples.

Every time you feed it, a powerful aura will emit from your body, making it feel...fearful?

Deathclaw's IQ is not very high, but this is only relative to humans.

Compared with small animals such as hyenas, jackals, and brown bears, it is still smarter, and its mind can reach the level of a primate cub.

It is precisely because of this that the feeling of fear brought to it is particularly obvious.

Whenever it shows an unfriendly attitude, or even just a demeanor, it feels like its brain is frozen, making its limbs stiff and its whole body trembling.

On the other hand, if it behaves docile and obedient enough, the man will feed it a few more rats or hyenas.

Over time, it has figured out a new way of survival.

Recently, the human has played some new tricks. Every time it is fed, it will call it "Niko". Although they don't know what this sound means, as long as it shows a response, the lizard will be afraid of it. The tin can will happily reward it.

Who cares?

Maybe it's that human's name.

Nicole doesn't care about things she can't understand. For her to abandon her wild nature, having a full meal and taking a nap is all she needs.

Crouching on the ground, it closed its eyes and planned to take a nap before lunch.

But at this moment, a group of noisy voices disturbed its sleep.

Nicole opened her eyes and saw a small insect followed by several blue coats, noisily walking towards her.

As he walked forward, Mr. Garbage boasted to several of his group friends.

"...I'm not bragging, I feel like I'm a lot stronger now! Let alone a mere death bug, I can easily kill the brood nest with just one slap!"

Ye Shi suddenly opened his mouth and said.

"Speaking of which, when will Lizard's Q period begin?"

Lao Bai thought for a while and said.

"It seems to be spring."

Quit smoking and ask curiously.

"Do you think that Deathclaw will woo Mr. Junk?"

Scrambled eggs with tomatoes touched his chin in thought.

"Maybe, after all, this guy is cheating."

Everyone was unanimously optimistic about this pair, only Jun Jun clicked his tongue.

"You people have really dirty thoughts! You can't be pure if you play games every day and CPDD!"

Ye Shi said with a playful smile.

"Okay, okay. If you don't have a little brother, you are very tough when you talk."

Being poked in a sore spot, Jun Jun glared at him angrily.

"Get out!"

You don't come here just to woo a mate.

Although he has the body of a lizard, he is still mentally human, and he is very close to a reptile, but he is still a bit too dumb.

What's more, it doesn't have that either.

The heterogeneous sequence, whether it is a lizard or a mouse, the gender is always "eunuch". Maybe because he was too curious, the operator simply didn't build a model that should have been on him.

But from the perspective of Jun Jun, this is not an important matter.

It's a game.

Being strong is enough, but you don’t need anything else!

How to prove that you are strong?

For lizards, the most direct way is to gain recognition from humans, especially female humans.

Amber eyes looked over from the wooden shed.

Seeing that the beast noticed him, Jun Jun held his breath, stared at it, and released his "aura".

The two pairs of eyes, one big and one small, stared at each other like this for about half a minute.

Lying in the wooden shed, Nicole didn't know if she understood what he meant. She snorted with a sneer, blew up a few straws, and landed them at the feet of the garbage man.

The huge dog tail changed direction, and the amber eyes closed casually, no longer paying attention to it.

"Pfft-hahahaha!"

I couldn't hold it back after quitting smoking, and burst into laughter.

Although the other people did not smile, there was also a subtle look on their faces.

Jun Jun's face turned red and he defended himself.

"It's probably sleepy."

"Okay, okay, forget about the trash man," Fang Chang patted his tail distressedly, "We are in Yuanxi Town to collect materials, be good."

With the help of food tester Lao Na, recently, Tomato Scrambled Eggs developed a method for processing monster meat.

As long as you sprinkle some buffalo grass powder when marinating, you can get rid of the unpleasant smell of blood and make the monster meat less unpalatable.

Fry until golden brown on both sides and sprinkle with some pine gin wine and chopped potato stems. Not only is it a delicious dish, it can also provide "5% metabolism, 7% physical fitness" BUFF.

Because it tastes similar to beef and can provide buffs, the hunter union has recently seen a sudden increase in demand for monster hunting.

After being silent for a while, Guangfeng suddenly spoke.

"I heard that female lizards raise their tails when courting."

Quit smoking: "Does that mean you're not interested?"

Tomato Fried Egg asked with great interest.

"Where's the male lizard?"

Tornado: "I remember it was wagging its tail."

The most literate person here is Professor Feng.

Ye Shi suddenly smiled slyly and looked at Mr. Garbage.

"Brother, how about... let's give it a try?"

Garbage Man: "Go, go, go!"

It was embarrassing to try.

Wouldn’t it be more embarrassing if you fail to try!

Although his attribute is only 3, he is not stupid!

Guangfeng held his chin and thought, then suddenly spoke.

"By the way, there's actually something I'm quite concerned about."

Yesterday, he searched for information about lizards for several hours, but he still couldn't figure it out.

Being targeted by Professor Kuangfeng always makes Mr. Jun feel an ominous feeling.

This guy is a bit targeting him today...

"...What do you care about?"

"I remember before...didn't you tell me that you had four points of intelligence? You hadn't awakened it at that time," Kuang Feng wondered, "Why did it decrease after you awakened?"

Quit smoking and look at Jun Jun in surprise.

"Is there still this matter?"

Junk Jun coughed dryly and subtly looked away.

"Don't worry about these details...don't you want to go to Yuanxi Town? Let's go quickly. If you are late, you won't be able to catch the train."

"There are 9 attribute points from LV0 to LV9, but the intelligence has not increased at all. I would be embarrassed to say it," Fang Chang patted Guang Feng's shoulder, sighed and said, "Understand."

Junk Jun: "\u0026 @%￥!"

…

Three days have passed since the wave ended.

The spore cloud gathered in the northern suburbs is receding at a speed visible to the naked eye, and the morale of the survivors in the northern suburbs has reached unprecedented heights.

This kind of morale is not obvious among the players.

After all, they have saved the world countless times in other games such as Azeroth, Skyrim or Hyrule.

A city too small for them.

Brood?

Enter the body?

It’s just a level 10~20 plot boss.

But for the survivors living in Qingquan City, especially in the northern suburbs, defeating the wave is of great significance.

In the eyes of the vast majority of survivors in Qingquan City, only Boulder City can cope with the existence of Tidal Wave.

When gray-green thick fog fills the air, most people can only choose to avoid dangerous urban areas, or reduce their travel, huddle up at home and pray for the wave to end soon.

Those blue jackets from Vault 404 did what they had never even dared to think about, and even eliminated the wave faster than Boulder City!

Those arrogant people living in the wall?

Nothing more than that!

…

Inside the outpost, it was ablaze with lights and colorful decorations, and it was as lively as a festival.

Since the Spring Festival and the new version were coming soon, and before he had time to celebrate the previous victory, Chu Guang decided to celebrate three things together, and set the celebration on the first day of the B-round test launch.

Cooking food is a traditional project of Vault 404.

The same goes for this celebration.

If you get the recognition of players, NPCs, and managers for your delicious food, you will not only be able to enter the exclusive Chef Hall of Fame with your teammates, but you will also have the opportunity to see your own creations in the NPC store and receive generous event points.

Many professional combat players went to Jiujiu Farm early in the morning and queued up there to wait for the shuttle bus to Yuanxi Town, eager to bring in some magical animals.

Professional gamers are not idle either. Some are fishing, some are picking mushrooms, and some are catching toads in the fields. The entire forum is full of local flavor.

Especially now that the number of ear-mounted camera equipment is gradually increasing, the number of Shelters in stock has reached 200, and Chu Guang has opened it to players for purchase.

As long as the contribution points reach the average citizen and you pay 500 silver coins, you can unlock the "game screenshot" + "instant messaging" functions from the manager assistant Xiaoqi.

After having the headset, you can not only communicate remotely with players in the VM friend list, but also synchronize "compliant" photos to the forum account.

Many cloud players on the forum also feasted their eyes on it and saw many magical animals that did not exist in reality.

In addition to players who capture ingredients by themselves, there are also some players who focus on the trading station of Jiujiu Farm and the merchants who pass by.

Exotic traders occasionally bring some specialties from neighboring provinces, such as dried lizards, canned fruits and sugar from Jinchuan Province in the south, or saw-toothed tiger meat, yak milk and colorful mineral salts from the north.

These merchants are very satisfied with the products of Jiujiu Farm, especially those exquisitely crafted copper-cased bullets. It often only takes two or three magazines to exchange them for a whole box of hundreds of kilograms of goods.

Those bullets are just mass-produced on the assembly line. You can scare these wastelanders to death if you tell them.

In addition to food, players also did not forget to change their hometowns into New Year skins.

In particular, the professional players who were active around the outpost consciously decorated the buildings around the Quality Plaza with festive paper-cuts.

Not only that, they also posted very creative couplets on the doors of NPC offices such as sanatoriums, weapon shops, warehouses, banks, Hunters' Guilds, etc.

Standing at the door of the weapons store, looking at the red paper hanging at the door, Boss Xia had a strange expression on his face.

"What's written on it?" She looked at Chu Guang and asked.

"The noodles have swelled, the meat has swelled, and the mushrooms have swelled again and again. Thank God the weapons have not. Hengbiao: Version Conscience... Haha, these guys are a bit interesting."

As he thought about it, Chu Guang couldn't help laughing.

The fight is not neat.

But it does have the style of the players.

If these idiot netizens could really come up with serious couplets, Chu Guang would be surprised.

"...?"

Xia Yan was confused when he heard it, but Chu Guang understood that these players were planning to distribute silver coins indiscriminately in Inner Dog.

But...

What does this have to do with yourself?

What you connotate is Aguang, what does it have to do with me, Shuguang?

As we all know, in order to take care of the experience of new players, any online game has a version catch-up mechanism, and "numerical expansion" is just one of the countless cards in the hands of planners.

However, Chu Guang's starting point for printing money is different from the planning of other games. He prints money in a planned way based on the gross output of players and NPCs to balance the income between different groups.

Thanks to the supercomputer with unknown computing power buried under the shelter and the black box unlimited production of VM equipment.

Without these two black technologies and Xiaoqi's help, if you want to complete these tasks, it is really not something that can be accomplished with just a touch of lip service.

Chu Guang roughly calculated that at least 10% or even 20% of the labor force must be converted into administrative personnel to barely maintain the operation of this management system.

To describe it in the terms of a business simulation game, due to the "future administration" technology of Vault 404, managers only need less than 150 grassroots administrative staff with only secondary or even primary education to maintain nearly 2,000 employees. permanent population and the "smiling faces" of 1,500 players.

Who dares to say that there is no black technology in Vault 404?

The only difference between this black technology and controllable fusion is that it is not obviously stronger and slightly weaker.

Xiaoyu stood aside, curiously recognizing the words on the couplet.

Chu Guang looked at her and said with a smile.

"Speaking of which, don't you have any Spring Festival?"

The little fish shook his head and turned the windmill.

"No!"

Chu Guang vaguely remembered Xiaoyu telling him before.

Beit Street only holds celebrations on the days of the former mayor and his children, and most of them require people from the town to work and receive gift money, so no one likes celebrations.

To be able to be like now, with everyone gathering together to celebrate the same happy emotion, seemed like a dream to Xiaoyu.

"...At this time in previous years, there would be a loud banging sound in the south, and sometimes it would sound all night long," Xiaoyu tilted his head and thought for a while, then said with an idea, "It's like thunder!"

To the south...it should be near the West Third Ring Road?

You can't hear it from Linghu Wetland Park, but if you're on Beit Street, you should be able to hear the sound of the cannon coming from there.

Chu Guangmin asked curiously.

"How long does it usually last?"

"If it's fast, it will be over in a week, if it's slow, it may take a month." After thinking seriously for a while, Xiaoyu nodded vigorously and said with certainty, "2020 will probably be relatively late. Xiaoyu has never seen it in the northern suburbs. Such a heavy fog!”

In the past few days, whenever she came out of the shelter, she wore a gas mask.

But she was suffocated.

It's never been this serious before.

Chu Guang nodded, thoughtfully.

"It seems that the spread of spores is regional..."

…

Although the tide in the northern suburbs has ebbed early, there are still a lot of things waiting for Chu Guang to be busy.

Because Beijiao miraculously solved the crisis of the wave before Boulder City, and coupled with the active activities of Shuyu sent by Chu Guang to Boulder City, many merchants from Boulder City have been attracted recently, leading the two-headed The cattle are driven to the northern suburbs.

The north gate of Qingquan, which faces the wilderness, has never been so lively.

Especially when those merchants discovered that the "artwork" in the Queen of the Night Bar was actually produced here, they all went crazy in an instant.

In addition to the three treasures of artworks, devil's silk and spirit leaves that satisfy LSP's thirst for knowledge, there are also many other things here.

For example, Didiwe Nutritional Cream was almost sold out by merchants in Boulder City!

The wholesale price of 299 silver coins per ton, according to the current exchange rate, is less than 150 chips. Compared with the ex-factory price of 300 chips per ton at Weijia Trading Company, what is the difference between buying here and picking it up?

Not only is the price cheap, but the quality is not bad at all.

Factory director Ditwei initially planned to form a caravan of his own to sell the goods to Boulder City, but later found that this operation was completely redundant.

His capital has been reduced to around 140 silver coins per ton, and the influx of orders has been scheduled for three months. He has more than doubled his profit by making full use of his efforts, so why bother with his profit?

With that silver coin, it would be better to invest in a few more hunting teams to sweep the buildings along the edge of the Fifth Ring Road. The income from scavenging can completely balance the expenditure on ammunition.

Just do it and you're done!

Such rich wealth made even Liszt jealous.

KV-1 exoskeletons and solid-state hydrogen batteries make money, but the efficiency is really not as good as that of something as inconspicuous as nutritional cream.

The gangs in the slums at the entrance of Boulder City will buy these things, and the farms in the south will also buy them in large quantities.

200g can make people not hungry, and twice the amount can make people full. It is perfect for feeding slaves and livestock.

In addition to artworks and nutritious creams that are sold out of stock, there are also gas masks for mosquitoes, bicycles and helmets from the No. 81 Steel Plant, disinfectant from chemical plants, and some cheap and useful gadgets.

The LD-47 Sickle Assault Rifle is not very popular among the merchants in Boulder City, but that does not prevent the mercenaries from putting it down.

Low failure rate, easy maintenance, and powerful enough.

Coupled with the biggest advantage of being cheap, it is enough for them to open their wallets, exchange their chips for silver coins, and then use the silver coins to spend money with Boss Xia.

Apart from the wealthy bosses who run factories, the most enjoyable ones are undoubtedly the live professional players on North Street.

Few of the mercenaries who followed Liszt's caravan from Boulder City spent money at their stalls.

However, recently, these mercenaries from Boulder City seem to have suddenly become rich, and their spending is surprising.

Even though the price of ramen increased from 5 silver coins to 6 silver coins, some people still paid for it.

The mushroom soup that costs 4 silver coins a bowl is widely praised. It is fragrant and delicious. The most important thing is that the lady boss is beautiful, speaks and listens well, and there is an endless stream of people queuing up.

These merchants and mercenaries who came from afar not only stimulated a wave of consumption, but also brought many things produced by Boulder City.

These merchants sell a wide variety of goods, ranging from weapons to daily necessities.

In fact, Boulder City is a long-established large-scale survivor settlement that completed industrialization a long time ago, and its industrial capacity is much stronger than that of Shelter 404.

The local development model draws heavily on the ideal city of the enterprise. This can be seen from the "ship cargo worship" of the upper class in the inner city towards the ideal city in all aspects from culture to commodities.

The design idea of ​​the KV-1 exoskeleton is modeled after the Miner Series, and the Black Swan G9 assault rifle is imitated by the Drone X-2 assault rifle. They have imitated the "heritage successors" of the East Coast in many areas.

The factory in Boulder City cannot produce metallic hydrogen, but it can produce sub-two-stage solid hydrogen. It cannot produce the fusion engine that drives the land fortress, but it can make the engine that boils water compact and cheap.

Chu Guang admitted that in terms of population and industrial capacity, there is a big gap between the survivor settlement in the northern suburbs and Boulder City. When the communication and understanding between the two parties reach a certain level, friction may be inevitable. .

However, even if the relationship deteriorates to the point of all-out war, it will not be a day or two.

Even if a fight breaks out tomorrow, it won't stop him from picking up their sheep every day.

In order to protect local industries and increase exports, Chu Guang had already adjusted the exchange rate of silver coins to chips from 1:2 to 2:1 when he let Liszt come in to set up a factory, and also restricted the exchange rate between individuals and enterprises. Foreign exchange quota.

In this way, players will find that buying the KV-1 exoskeleton from the NPC store is much cheaper than buying imported goods in Boulder City.

䀴Similarly, exporting products from the northern suburbs to Boulder City will earn much more profit than simply dragging them to a market and selling them.

"I've never seen so many chips."

Outpost warehouse.

Looking at the pile of colorful chips in the box, old Charlie let out a heartfelt sigh.

Although he is also a blue jacket from the shelter, he has long been accustomed to the local life after living in Qingquan for so many years.

With so many valuable things placed in front of him, it was impossible to say that he wasn't shocked at all.

Chu Guang said with a faint smile.

"Don't you have that old leech?"

Charlie knew who Chu Guang was talking about and said softly.

"He's just in the category of an average rich person."

There are many denominations of chips in Boulder City, the most common one is Qin color, which is also the most widely circulated currency outside of Boulder City.

In addition, there are also bright red with a face value of 5, green with a face value of 25, and black with a face value of 100.

No matter how large the denomination chips are, you can usually only see them in the inner city, but most people there use credit cards to make transactions and rarely carry chips larger than 100 denominations in their pockets to show off.

Since it can't be used as change, few people can find it.

He had seen the former mayor's vault. He had three of the same boxes, but most of them were the cheapest Qin colored chips.

Unlike this box, you can even see the black ones.

Chu Guang asked with a smile.

"Is this money enough to become a rich man in Boulder City?"

Charlie thought for a while and gave a rigorous answer.

"...I've only been there a few times, but if it's the kind of luxurious life I understand, it should be more than enough."

Chu Guang smiled and said nothing.

After a pause, he cleared his throat.

"I plan to set up a trade union and organize some caravans to carry out trade with other survivor settlements. While expanding our territory of influence, we will also find something to do for my players... I mean the residents. "

Old Charlie nodded.

"That's a good idea."

Although the second half of the sentence sounded strange, he agreed with the first part.

At the current stage of the development of the northern suburbs, it is not enough to expand the territory, and there are not that many people to open up the land.

It is not just an economic issue. Only by gaining sufficient regional influence can the northern suburbs obtain the population and resources for further development.

Chu Guang looked at old Charlie and continued.

"You probably have the most knowledge and experience among the people I know."

"This job."

"I'm going to leave it to you!"
