This Game Is Too Realistic

"Gracie Clinic, welcome!"

The sudden sound from the shadow startled Fang Chang and he almost took out his gun.

If you look closely, it's the puppet in the window that's talking.

It has an ordinary face, its eyes are two red stones, and its mouth is perfunctorily attached to two pieces of wood, like an aged puppet, hiding in a dark and damp corner.

Dolly, who was standing nearby, let out a sigh and joked.

"You're not the first person to be scared."

Fang Chang took his hand out of his pocket and said with a speechless expression.

"...Hasn't the owner of this clinic considered that putting up such a sign will scare away his customers?"

"Normally, his guests don't mind a little scare..."

After patting his shoulder, Dolly stepped in front and said, "Follow me."

This inconspicuous alley is located on the edge of the West District of Boulder City, far away from the busiest neighborhoods, but somewhat close to the industrial area of ​​Boulder City.

The exhaust gases from the factory make the air here smell bad. Most of the people living here are nearby workers, or some poor people who do simple work for nearby factories.

Following the girl's footsteps, Fang Changqi entered the clinic hidden in a dark alley.

Maybe because it was daytime, there was not much business here and it looked very deserted.

Dolly took him straight through the narrow registration hall and came to the room hidden deep in the corridor.

There was an oil-stained curtain hanging at the door of the room, and the smell of machine oil was obviously not something that a clinic should have.

Fang Chang's expression was a little strange.

"...I thought these uncirculated products on the market would be hidden in more secret places."

"Isn't this secret enough?"

Dolly asked casually, then reached out and opened the door curtain.

Just as Fang Chang guessed, the so-called "black market" is here.

What he didn't expect was that items that were not sold in ordinary stores were so blatantly placed on the shelves, lined up in a whole row.

There are many types of prosthetics, ranging from inferior ones carved from wood to bionic parts that are almost the same as real ones.

Fang Chang even saw a life-size doll that was almost exactly like a real person in a standing cabinet in the corner.

The empty eyes seem to be able to suck out the soul, if there really is such a thing in this world.

This thing should be an android.

Fang Changqi stepped forward and was about to take a closer look. However, as soon as he glanced at the price on the label, he gave up the idea of ​​buying one and going back to study it.

50,000 chips...

It’s equivalent to a set of cavalry exoskeletons!

He is crazy to pay such a high price for something that has no apparent use.

"If you want to find a bed partner, I heard that clones are more cost-effective." Dolly, who crossed her arms, whistled and said in a joking tone.

"...I haven't thought about it that way. Could your expression be more subtle?"

Fang Chang looked away from the transparent cabinet and looked at the shelves directly opposite.

The prices here are obviously much more reasonable. The most expensive ones are only over 6,000, and the cheaper ones are mostly around 3 digits.

He found that the more sophisticated the small parts, the more expensive they were. For example, most electronic eyes cost more than 5,000, while mechanical arms and legs were relatively much cheaper.

Just then, he noticed a strange shelf.

Unlike the products on the other shelves, the life-saving prosthetics placed here look wrong no matter how you look at them.

For example, the end of one of the arms is connected not with fingers, but with a barrel that can fit into a whole fist. Combined with the mechanical parts next to it, it looks like a self-loading hand cannon.

Fang Changyan doubted that if he really put this thing on and fired, whether he could hit someone or not, his shoulder blade would definitely be damaged.

Maybe there are other matching parts?

In addition, there are arms equipped with foldable mantises and prosthetic legs connected to jet thrusters.

In both shape and function, these things don't look like they're for the average person.

They are born to serve on the battlefield.

Fang Chang couldn't help but have a hint of curiosity in his eyes, and he blurted out a question.

“Where did this equipment come from?”

Before Dolly could answer, a strange voice suddenly came from the side.

"There are many ways, some are picked up, some are accidentally lost inventory, most of the goods have been processed, as long as you are not too high-profile, there will be no problem... As for where they come from, I advise you to still Don’t delve too deeply into this.”

Fang Chang looked in the direction of the sound and saw a balding middle-aged man standing next to the door curtain.

He was wearing a blue-green gown, with a pair of scissors hanging on his pocket, stained with incompletely dried blood. He looked like he had just come out of the operating room.

"...Are you Gracie?" Fang Chang looked at him and asked.

The middle-aged man nodded and looked at him with interest.

"Yes, what about you? What do you call me?"

"Fang Chang."

"Fang Chang... a strange name," Gracie stared at him for a while, then suddenly a hint of surprise appeared in her eyes, and she said, "Are you a resident of the shelter?"

Fang Chang didn't hide it.

"Is there a problem?"

Dolly, who was standing aside with her arms folded, coughed and interjected in Fang Chang's stead.

"...Don't you think it's rude to ask about your guests' origins?"

"Sorry, I'm too talkative..."

Gracie smiled, her eyes moved back and forth between Dolly and Fang Chang twice, and ended the previous topic without leaving a trace.

"Getting back to the subject, what kind of bionic organ do you want? I don't think you are a person with missing arms or legs... Do you want to make yourself bigger? Or stronger?"

"I'm more interested in power," Fang Chang glanced at the shelves at hand, "like these."

There was a hint of surprise in Gracie's eyes, and her tone couldn't help but be a little excited.

"Oh? These? It seems that you are knowledgeable. These are all nonsense."

"Can you introduce it to me?" Fang Chang said.

Gracie said with a smile.

"Introduction? Their functions are written on their faces. Do you need me to introduce them? The mercenary groups sponsored by Jushi Military Industry use these guys. It only takes one surgical operation to make a hand powerless. A rookie has the fighting ability of a veteran."

"There is no need to worry about their power. The fact that they are placed here is the best proof of their value."

A mercenary group sponsored by Jushi Military Industry?

There was a hint of surprise in Fang Chang's eyes, and Tuo Qi couldn't help but ask.

"Is this kind of equipment common in mercenary groups sponsored by Jushi Military Industry?"

Gracie: "It's not bad. The wealthy Lord Ibers has never been stingy in investing in this area. Compared with dragon blood, bionic prosthetics will undoubtedly increase combat effectiveness much more. A jet propulsion system, and then Coupled with a Mantis and a 30mm hand cannon, even the Death Claws will have to surround you... Of course, this is theoretically, I don't mind if you have to use a guy with a bad temper as your opponent. "

In theory it's okay.

Fang Chang thought about it, except for Jun Jun and the guy who got the plasma, there are probably not many people who are interested in close-range melee combat.

So far, there is no "absolutely reliable" shield in this game that can effectively resist damage from flying props.

No matter how great your fighting skills are, they are not as effective as a 20mm high-explosive bomb.

Fang Chang: "...are these all eliminated from the battlefield?"

"Usually, this is the case. Occasionally, equipment needs to be updated. This is rare. After all, it's not cheap."

As she spoke, Gracie suddenly raised her eyebrows and looked at Fang Chang with a hint of doubt in her eyes.

"Hey, are you here to buy something, or are you here to inquire about something?"

Fang Chang didn't answer the question, he just glanced at the shelves in front of him and pointed.

"I want everything on this."

The air in the room became quiet for a moment.

Dolly stared at Fang Chang in shock.

"Are you crazy?! Buy so many...do you know how many chips it costs?"

Get an AI core and you can create two androids.

Maybe there are more!

Gracie was the same, the shocked expression on her face was even more exaggerated than Dolly's.

"27 pieces of equipment, a total of 56,671 chips... I don't accept credit here."

"I don't plan to pay on credit," Fang Chang took out a card and shook it slightly, "Can I swipe the card?"

"Or... I have to go to the bank to take out the chips first?"

…

Of course it is impossible to swipe a card.

After all, the goods sold here had some problems on the way there. Fang Chang first went to the bank to withdraw money and then returned to the clinic.

As the first player to explore the map of Boulder City, he and his brothers had been doing business in Boulder City a long time ago.

Earlier, the equipment for burning bricks and cement in Niuma Brick Factory was imported from here.

Fang Chang still remembers that the earliest article on the forum about running a business in Boulder City was written by him.

Among them, the most moist one is undoubtedly the spirit leaf, followed by the blue mushroom and so on.

In addition to these high-priced products, there are also some low-priced but quick-selling varieties.

For example, if you buy a box of Nuka-Cola and sell it to Boulder City, you can earn a profit of 0.5 chips per bottle.

Although the public cannot afford this drink, as a substitute for alcoholic drinks, this cheap drink that can bring a short-term sense of happiness is quite popular among mercenaries.

Later, the method of drinking Coke and wine was brought back to Boulder City by mercenaries from the tavern in Dawn City, which caused the sales of Nuka-Cola to reach a peak.

Others may be short of chips, but this problem does not exist for the Niu Ma team.

At present, their account in Boulder City has a chip reserve of about 100,000.

This money has nothing to do with the brick factory business. It is earned through the business system.

Fang Chang and Lao Bai communicated and quickly reached an agreement on purchasing bionic equipment.

I don’t care whether it’s used or not. I’ll buy a batch first and take a look at it.

Even if you don't use it in the end, you can sell it to other players, or donate it to a scientific expedition team in exchange for contribution points.

There are definitely people out there who are interested in this stuff.

"...Why do chips with a face value of 10,000 look like this?"

Looking at the chip with the crown pattern printed on the edge, Dolly whispered.

Those eyes were filled with surprise, and what happened before her eyes was beyond her knowledge.

She originally thought that this guy just had a little money, was a bit generous, and was not very smart, so he spent so much on her, but she didn't expect that he quietly spent such a large sum of money on her. Numbers.

Dolly suddenly realized that she couldn't understand the guy in front of her.

Who on earth can take out such a large sum of chips casually...

Unlike Dolly, who was already stupid, Gracie seemed to be a different person instantly after seeing this huge sum of money. Not only did her eyes become hot, but she also became much more enthusiastic.

He respectfully counted the chips twice, and then scanned them twice with the money detector.

After confirming that there was no problem, he looked at Fang Chang with a fawning smile on his face.

"Do you need me to help you install it? I can provide surgical services for free."

In Gracie's eyes, the identity of the man in front of her has changed into that of the leader of a certain mercenary group.

After all, it is impossible for normal people to buy so many bionic prosthetics. Only mercenary groups would have such demand.

Any mercenary group that has the ability to use tens of thousands of chips to replace their subordinates with bionic prosthetics is without exception a powerful force.

"No, just help me pack it up. I've arranged for someone to come and move it. You don't need to worry about the rest." Fang Chang handed him a business card. "If there are similar things again, You can find me at the address and contact information on this business card.”

"Equipments other than bionic prosthetics are also fine, as long as they are weapons, especially weapons related to the giant stone military industry."

"Definitely! Hehe." Gracie took the business card with both hands and glanced at it hastily, surprise suddenly appeared in her eyes.

Alliance office in Boulder City?

Actually from the northern suburbs? !

…

There are 27 bionic prosthetics packed in 6 boxes. Although each one is not very big, it cannot be carried by one person.

Fang Chang hired an NPC from the office to move the box back to the save point.

After working hard all day, it was getting late, so Fang Chang treated Dolly to a meal and then sent her back to her home.

Standing at the door of the apartment, Dolly stared at the man in front of her for a while, and suddenly a trace of confusion appeared in her eyes.

"…who are you?"

Fang Chang didn't say anything, but took out a chip with a face value of 25 from his pocket and handed it to her hand with a smile.

"The chip in the morning was just a deposit. Thank you for staying with me all day."

Just a few hours ago, he unlocked a new "hidden mission" - to recover black equipment from the black market that Jushi Military Industry does not sell to the outside world.

The new alliance needs to use these equipment to understand the strength of the neighbor at their doorstep.

Just by looking at the description of the task, you can see how significant this task is.

At least more than the two he triggered before.

It seems that Boulder City's black market system is not unfinished, but requires players to trigger it.

Unexpectedly, the game world is more complete than I imagined.

Fang Chang couldn't help but sigh in his heart. He thought he had uncovered the unfinished content of the plan, but as a result, this wave of Aguang stood in the atmosphere, and even the corresponding tasks, professions and gameplay were completed.

It’s just that no one triggered it.

According to the introduction to the "Hidden Mission" task, the alliance management did not want a large group of players to rush through and harass the black marketeer, blocking the way to import these unknown equipment.

Therefore, the management specially granted him the hidden occupation of "Boulder City Black Market Purchaser".

This profession has no level settings and does not occupy career slots. It can only be triggered through hidden tasks. It has the "franchise" to import bionic prosthetics from Boulder City and sell them in Dawn City.

Such a harvest has exceeded Fang Chang's expectations.

Although the NPC in front of him was not worth his enthusiasm for management, he still couldn't help but say thank you.

"……You are welcome."

Looking at the green chip in her hand, Dolly did not refuse and silently put it away.

After a while, she whispered.

"We will meet again...right?"

"Of course, I still have many things I plan to ask you." Fang Chang said with a smile.

Although he had also thought about convincing this guy to live in the northern suburbs, he thought about it and it would be good to have an "informant" who was familiar with the local situation.

There was still a lot he didn't know about Boulder to explore.

"Well... that's nonsense! You have to protect yourself." A happy smile appeared on Dolly's face, and her short green hair glowed vividly in the sunset.

"The same goes for you, Baozu."

It's also nice to have an NPC friend.

Watching the petite figure disappear at the door of the apartment building, Fang Chang smiled and waved his hand, turned and walked toward the other end of the street.

…

At the same time, the East District of Qingquan City.

At the entrance of the subway station, which was covered with moss and vines, there was a sudden and unfamiliar shout, which frightened the squirrels on the tree nearby. One of them lost their balance and fell to the ground, squeaking angrily.

However, the man ignored him and continued to act foolishly.

"Holy shit, shit, shit!"

This tree!

This light!

And there’s this oncoming wind!

It’s so awesome!

Looking blankly at the midsummer forest in front of him, Lin Shengyu looked around in stunned silence.

He looked like a fool who had just been discharged from the hospital.

And it’s still the kind of thing that gives up treatment.

As for why he is here, we have to start with a sunny afternoon.

Since the boss was having a meeting outside and had not yet decided on a new research direction, he had no work to do as a scientific research worker, so he searched for some games online and happened to know about "Wasteland OL". legend.

In fact, it is just a legend, and a lot of people know about it. I don’t know if it is an official restriction or for some reason. I can only read relevant reports and public discussions on other platforms.

Out of curiosity, he took 20 precious minutes of his life to carefully fill out the appointment form.

Nothing happened at first. He thought about it for a long time and couldn't figure it out, so he forgot about it.

Not long after, when he came home from get off work at the research institute one day, he picked up the mysterious package containing the helmet at the door of his house.

His mood at that time was simply beyond words.

Especially when he puts on the helmet, the mysterious countdown that can be seen even with his eyes closed almost subverts his worldview and cognition.

However, all the surprises and shocks are too pale and insignificant at this moment.

He is standing in a completely imaginary world!

Use his feet!

Just when Lin Shengyu was making a fuss and looking around, other players around him were also looking at him curiously.

"Is this the European Emperor?"

"You look so stupid."

"I'm done. My curiosity is satisfied. I'll get up soon."

At this time, a player with a rifle in his left hand and a dead monkey in his right hand came forward and spoke to him.

"Brother, why are you alone?"

Lin Shengyu: "...alone?"

Irena asked curiously.

"Yes, isn't there two European emperors?"

Lin Shengyu was confused and felt that he couldn't follow the topic at all.

"Emperor Ou?"

Irena stared at him for a while with a strange expression.

"Don't you usually go to the forum?"

Playing an MMORPG without going to the forum to brag is simply half the fun.

There are 24 hours a day, and he wants to spend 12 hours playing games and 12 hours making fun on the forum.

"Forum? Who is still playing with that thing in this age?" Lin Shengyu couldn't laugh or cry.

Irena scratched her head.

"Okay...what's your ID? Add me as a friend."

"Cack!"

"Grrrr? Your name is so unique," Irena was stunned for a moment.

"Ahem... take it with you, take it with you, don't take it to heart." Lin Shengyu smiled shyly.

In fact, he originally wanted to call him Gugu Chicken, but his ID was registered, so he changed his name to this.

I heard that this game mainly relies on voice communication.

When he thought about it [from now on everyone would call him brother and brag about how big he is, he felt embarrassed].

"By the way, brother...how to play this game?"

Irena scratched her head.

"You can play whatever you want, hunting, fishing, moving bricks or even playing with mud... as long as it doesn't break the rules. But you are a novice, I suggest you take on the task of passing on the fire first, and find someone to familiarize you with it. How to play, get the VM by the way."

As we all know, VM is the core of this game. Without VM, many things cannot be done.

The shelter has a full-time novice guide, who used to be the manager himself, but is now an officer of the New Alliance Guard.

Through that NPC VM, you can trigger the task of passing on the fire to find high-level players.

Or you can directly find a player on the scene who is pleasing to your eye to trigger it.

The server environment of "Wasteland OL" has always been good, and everyone is a good person.

Especially for newcomers, it is quite friendly!

Lin Shengyu said with a smile.

"It's a mission to pass on the fire. I took that one. My master seems to be called WC. Is there really a mosquito? He said he would come here to pick me up tomorrow in the main city and asked me to stay here and not move."

Upon hearing the ID, Irena was instantly shocked.

"What the hell, mosquito?!"

"Uh, what's wrong?"

"It's nothing..." Irena glanced at this dear man affectionately and mourned for him for two seconds in her heart.

It was not a good choice, but I chose this cheater.

Although the reviews of the equipment produced by Goblin Technology are pretty good, working for Goblin Technology is another story.

Many people have experienced rebirth and imprisonment before they have had time to experience the full content of the game.

Out of affection, Irena paused and said.

"If you plan to visit the main city, why not come with me? I have to go back to you now anyway, so I'm on my way."

"But..." Lin Shengyu's expression was a little hesitant. He heard from Mosquito that fighting in the wasteland was dangerous, and Mengxin should remember not to go far alone.

There is no real safe zone here. Even at home, there are risks.

"Come on, come on, how can I trick you? The area around Shelter 117 is not a place for newbies to level up at all. I will take you to Dawn City. There are many good things there and there are also save points." Irena patted him on the shoulder and urged, "Speaking of which, you just entered the game and haven't eaten yet? I'll treat you to a meal."

"Really?! I'm so embarrassed!" Lin Shengyu's eyes lit up, and he felt a little empty in his stomach.

Irena said generously.

"What's the point? We are all European emperors. Don't be so shy. Do you have any taboos when it comes to talking about it?"

Lin Shengyu chuckled.

"No, no, I'll eat everything, it's up to you!"

Upon hearing this, Irena's eyes lit up.

"Really? Are you sure?"

"That's a must! No matter it's sour, salty, sweet or spicy, there's nothing I can't eat!" Lin Shengyu said, patting his chest.

This is not a boast on his part.

He often travels with his mentor and attends academic conferences all over the world. What has he never eaten?

A good stomach.

It is also very important for scientific research.

Unexpectedly, this friend of the European Emperor was still a man of the Tao, so Irena happily hooked his shoulder.

"Brother, I've been waiting for your words! Let's get some game!"

"䶓䶓专!"

Looking at the man with his arms around his back, the eyes of the surrounding players all had expressions of affection.

㳔What kind of miraculous luck does it take to step on two landmines on the first day of entering the game?

Or should I say that in order to win the gaming helmet, I have exhausted all my luck in this life...

"...This sacrifice is too great." Fugui, the Elf King carrying the shotgun, sighed and took a bite of the dry food in his hand.

The fugitive mole in the canyon nodded subtly.

"Indeed."

I hope nothing happens to anyone.

…

The game world has just entered dark night, and it is early morning in the real world.

Sitting up from the bed, Ye Wei took off his helmet, let out a sigh of relief, and looked at the alarm clock on the bedside table.

The time is exactly 7 o'clock in the morning.

Usually when there is no class on the first day, he will play games and go offline at 9 or 10 o'clock.

Later he had to pick up his sister from the bus station, so he got off early.

By the way, just now he, Jun Jun and Fang Feng were on a mission to clean up the underground tunnel.

There are a large number of slime mold fruiting bodies there, and there is even a tyrant known as a humanoid tank.

According to Brother Fang's prediction, Qingquan Center may become a popular area in the next version.

Training the slime mold fruiting bodies as opponents in advance can be regarded as adapting to the next version in advance.

However, no matter how fun the game is or how much money can be made, it is not as important as family.

After eating a bowl of 0.1 silver hot dry noodles downstairs, Ye Wei pulled off a piece of free paper and wiped his mouth, then took a taxi to the train station.

The whole cost is less than one silver coin.

Standing in the crowded station square, Ye Wei couldn't help but sigh.

Still, the reality is that it’s cheaper.

At this moment, the sound of 㱕 came from the distance, bringing him back to reality from his dream.

"Brother!"

Ye Wei turned his head and saw a cute little girl waving to him in the crowd.

She was wearing ordinary jeans and a T-shirt, with a pair of sneakers on her feet. She was carrying a suitcase half a person's height in each hand, and her ponytail was swaying like a squirrel's tail.

Ye Wei hurriedly greeted him, glanced at the suitcase and said.

"Why do you bring so many things?"

Seeing that her brother was not conscious at all and was out of breath from running, Ye Jiu thrust the suitcase into his hand.

"Didn't you ask me to take care of you? Stop just watching and help me quickly!"

This guy.

As soon as I leave home, I let myself go.

Ye Wei rolled his eyes and took the two boxes without arguing with her.

On the way to the car, he weighed it and it was quite heavy. He didn't know what was inside.

He was lying on the bed every day moving bricks, and when he was loading his suitcases into the trunk, he almost failed to pick them up.

Fortunately, the driver helped him.

Sitting next to Ye Wei, Ye Jiu smiled and whispered.

"Brother, have you been playing video games every day lately? You look so weak."

Ye Wei gave me the first eye of the day.

"Get lost."

Ye Jiu said with an aggrieved look.

"I just came here and you told me to get lost. Do you have a brother like you?"

Ye Wei looked at her seriously and said.

"Stop talking nonsense, please explain clearly first, what is the surprise you want to give me?"

He has been thinking about this for the past few days, and he can hardly sleep because of his worries.

Although he usually doesn't sleep either.

Seeing the anxious expression on his brother's face, Ye Jiu smiled mysteriously.

"Hmph, you'll find out later!"

The car was about to reach its destination.

Stopped at the entrance of a high-end residential complex.

Ye Jiu jumped out of the car and looked around curiously.

"Are you being kept by a rich woman?"

Ye Wei was just dragging his luggage out of the trunk when he heard this and almost choked on his spit.

"You little guy, what are you keeping in your head all day long?"

The driver next to him didn't speak, his expression was obviously suppressing a smile.

Ye Jiu smiled shyly, not thinking what he said.

"Aren't I worried about my brother?"

"By the way, why are you renting a house outside? Do you have a girlfriend? Have you already lived together? How old are you? Are you studying? Or are you already working? Big sister? Are you a rich woman? Can you support me by the way? ”

She curiously asked a series of questions, but only the first one got into Ye Wei's ears.

rent?

Finally waiting for the opportunity to show off, he chuckled and said as steadily as an old dog.

"I bought it."

He originally thought that his sister would be surprised and speechless.

What he didn't expect was that the little guy was so shocked that he imitated himself and rolled his eyes.

"Tch, I don't want to say forget it!"

Ye Wei was stunned for a moment and said anxiously.

"I'm telling the truth. I really buy it!"

Ye Jiu gave him a caring look.

"Ah, yes, yes."

Ye Wei: "..."

Blanch!

Downstairs is not a place for talking nonsense. Ye Wei, carrying two large suitcases, stumbled onto the elevator.

On the elevator, the little guy kept wandering restlessly, looking left and right. He didn't know whether he was looking forward to his new home, or looking forward to the surprise he was about to bring to him... or rather, the shock.

Ye Wei felt panicked.

He walked to the door, took out his key, opened the door, and found two new slippers at the entrance.

This is what he went downstairs to buy yesterday.

Just as he was about to call Jiujiu to change, he saw the little girl squatting beside the suitcase impatiently and opening the suitcase.

"What are you looking for?"

Jiujiu didn't reply to him. Suddenly, she stood up from the box with a big guy in her arms.

"Here, take it!"

Seeing Jiujiu stuffing something in his hand, Ye Wei was dumbfounded for a moment.

Damn it!

Gaming helmet? !

"...Where did you get it???"
