This Game is Too Real

  Chapter 119 Shelter under the department store

   The next day.

  East bank of Linghu Lake.

   "Prepare!"

   A loud and sharp voice echoed on the edge of the woods.

   "Waste El!"

  Fuse ignited.

  The big iron pipe fixed on the wooden pier blasted out a fire and white smoke. The cannonball turned into a black shadow, drew a beautiful parabola in the air, and smashed heavily into the lake hundreds of meters away.

   After waiting for a while, a water column rose into the sky, the water splashes scattered and fell, and the muffled sound like spring thunder carried the waves and rolled down the lake.

"Grass!"

   "Who the **** is firing guns there!"

   "Mosquito of the dog!"

   "Lao Tzu's fish are scared away!"

   The fishermen who were bragging and farting with fishing rods on the shore of the lake yelled for a while, but the mosquitoes on their heads who were excited could not hear them.

  Since the preparation of nitric acid and sulfuric acid has been solved, his small workshop has been able to produce a small amount of nitroglycerin, and nitrocellulose can be obtained by adding a little vegetable fiber. A very useful colloidal gunpowder can be obtained by dissolving and gelling the mixed solution of ethanol and ether.

  Although the drying process to solidify the particles has not been unlocked, it is much stronger than the original black powder!

   In the past, there were at least 30 kilograms - maybe the equivalent of 50 kilograms of black powder!

   "Hahahahaha, Ness! I finally succeeded!"

   Mosquito threw his fist excitedly, but the fist hit the tree trunk, but it didn't hurt, but he almost broke his fist.

   It's a pity that there is too little sugar in the warehouse, and it's too expensive to eat, otherwise he can make more awesome stuff with sugar and potash.

   was not happy at all.

  Mosquito used tongs to take out the hot cartridge case, then loaded another round into it, and turned it back to the previous angle to light the fuse.

   Another loud bang.

  This time, the shells flew farther than last time, and they flew a full 100 meters ahead.

   The sound of explosions echoed across the lake.

   The nomads who were coming to fetch water from the shore of the lake were all frightened by the thunderous sound, and they all stood there looking at the water column splashing on the lake.

   "Then, what is that?"

   "Big gun?!"

   "Yes, it should be called guns... I have seen them in those older survivor strongholds, and they used those guns to deal with large aliens."

   "It's too powerful, no wonder they can hunt claw crabs!"

  Different from the shocked and amazed nomads, the fishermen finally couldn't hold back their anger this time, and they all took their fishing rods to find them from the lake.

   "Fuck!"

   "Can you go somewhere else with a cannon?"

   "I'm scared of your fish!"

   "That's right! The fish in this game are so hard to catch, and they can't be caught now!"

   Seeing the fishermen headed by [Short Chasing Calf] approaching me aggressively, the mosquito hurriedly pushed his small cannon cart and ran away in a hurry.

  …

the other side.

  A department store not far from the south of the abandoned tire factory.

   Five players are on the B2 floor of the underground parking lot, fighting fiercely with the aliens lingering here.

  The radioactive source is behind the door next to the freight elevator in the B1 area of ​​the underground parking lot. This is the Nth time they have made this dungeon.

After several times of pulling, attracting monsters, charging, and focusing fire, the Niuma team gradually cleared the gnaws that Irena had brought out, and also successfully used the traps laid in advance to trap the "dungeon BOSS" hidden inside—— crawler.

   Cooperating with his teammates, Fang Chang opened the dawn, and with a full-charged shot, an arrow pierced through the skull of the creeper, successfully killing it.

   Ye Shi, who was leaning against the concrete pillar, let out a long sigh, threw the hatchet in his hand with a rolled blade, raised his arm to wipe off the sweat, and scolded.

   "Hey! It's a special clearance at last! The dungeon of this game should be cleared, right? Don't wait for another group to come out."

   Lao Bai and Gu Feng glared at him together.

   "Don't crow!"

   "Shut your mouth."

   Ye Shi shrank his neck, closed his mouth and stopped talking.

   "I won't be able to do it anymore, and if we do it a few more times, I'm afraid we'll go bankrupt." Fang Chang walked into the crawler, pulled out the arrow stuck in its forehead, glanced at it, and threw it away.

   is obviously no longer usable.

   "Are you sure there won't be any other monsters below?" With her right hand against the wall, Irena walked out from the side with a subtle expression.

   Ye Shi smiled at him: "Brother, don't be afraid, it has been emptied."

   Gu Feng gave a thumbs up: "Waiting for your news."

  Irena: "Hey! Aren't you all afraid?"

  Old Bai said as a matter of course: "What is there to be afraid of, it's not a horror game."

  Irena: "..."

   makes sense.

   He didn't know how to refute it.

   lingered at the door for a while, but Irena finally entered with a crowbar and explosives for breaking the door.

   It was a corridor that was neither wide nor narrow. Before the war, it was probably a place like a spare warehouse.

   The rancid smell was suffocating, the floor was covered with the bodily fluids of gnawing and creeping, and there were unknown fungi growing in the corners.

  This bad environment, I am afraid that even the mutant cockroaches will shy away.

   Although the last crawler had already been led out and killed by herself, Irena was still panicked.

   The atmosphere here is so weird.

   He couldn't help but think of several horror games he had played.

   Is this a fun-oriented game that focuses on leisure and retirement? !

  !

  Fortunately, what he feared did not happen.

   With the light from the VM and the scanned map, Irena went to the end of the passage smoothly.

   There is a rusted alloy door, and there is a corpse in a chemical suit lying down at the door, but the corpse has only bones left.

   There was no bite or tear on the protective suit. It seemed that he died before the predators occupied the place, and at least a few decades earlier.

   "The radiation index is getting higher and higher... It seems that the radioactive source is behind this door."

This guy lying on the ground should be the owner of this small shelter, throwing aside some cans, puffed food packaging bags, and rotting remains and mushrooms in the backpack. Supplies from outside.

   But I don't know why, he died at his doorstep.

   "Brother, don't blame me."

  Although there was ten thousand reluctance in her heart, Irena still bit the bullet, took off the skeleton of the fairly complete protective suit, and put it on herself.

  The air filtration system is broken.

But that's okay.

   He only needs to block a part of the gamma rays, and the rest relies on the resistance and recovery bonuses provided by the physique attribute, so it shouldn't be a big problem to support it!

   installed explosives at the door, and Irena, who lit the fuse, ran to the exit of the passage.

   "Boom!"

   The thick smoke of the explosion filled the entire passage in an instant. After waiting for the smoke to dissipate a little, Irena turned back to the door again.

The   alloy gate remained motionless, but the concrete wall beside it was blasted to expose the steel structure inside.

   "Good guy... pretty solid."

After a lot of waste, Irena finally used the crowbar in her hand to clean up the concrete debris from the broken wall, then put the crowbar in with her arm, and opened the bolt-type door locks one by one. .

   Fortunately, there are no more protective structures.

  Accompanied by the creaking sound, the heavy alloy door panel finally opened, and the stale air was wrapped in the stale air.

  Irena, who stepped into the room, held her breath, turned off the faintly glowing VM screen, and lit the lantern she brought earlier.

  The flames swayed in a trance, gradually becoming clear, illuminating the nearby space.

  All indications are that this is indeed a small shelter.

   At least it used to be.

   The area of ​​​​the shelter is not large. Compared with the No. 404 shelter, it can even be said to be quite pocket-sized.

   However, unlike the larger, officially-backed shelters of Vault 404, this small shelter is fairly compact.

   Not to mention the kind of buffer room with two airlocks and pressurization functions, there is not even a design for the entrance here.

   Behind the open alloy door, there are rows of shelves covered with moss.

   walked into the shelter with a lamp.

  Irena took a closer look at these shelves and found that above the glassware displayed on the shelves, there were long strips of lamps connected in series.

   "Could it be... soilless cultivation?"

  This should be a planting area, which is probably used to produce crops such as vegetables and staple food, and by the way, to improve the air environment in the shelter.

   But after so many years, the water in the culture tank has long since dried, leaving only a layer of dead moss and a few pieces of dry debris and curled plant fibers.

   He couldn't even see what had been planted in it before.

   Checking the radiation index on the VM, Irena carried the lamp and continued forward.

   The rear of the growing area is followed by rows of real shelves.

   It was also the things displayed on these shelves that made him widen his eyes.

  Copper ingots, steel ingots, aluminum ingots, lead... and a large number of metals that could not be accurately identified by his scavenging experience were neatly placed on it.

   In addition, there are a large number of non-metallic materials such as glass fiber, graphite powder, rubber products, hydraulic oil, lubricants, adhesives, etc.

   Even some liquid or powdered chemicals with unknown ingredients!

   And these materials, unlike the **** scattered in the ruins, may have undergone anti-oxidation treatment and are well preserved, at least they seem to be usable.

   In addition to these materials for making utensils, Irena also found some unfinished tools and parts on the last row of shelves, as well as five golden ingots and ten silver ingots!

   When he saw this, his eyes could not help but stare.

   "Fuck..."

   Made a fortune!

   It can be seen that the owner of this shelter should be a local tyrant, and most likely the owner of this department store, or at least a major shareholder!

   And this guy's crisis awareness and hands-on ability are not generally strong.

  The back of the container is a DIY workbench.

  In addition to basic tools such as screwdrivers and wrenches, rails, guide plates, mold balancing devices and hydraulic overload devices are also connected, and various replaceable tools and processing modules are hung next to the workbench.

  The entire workbench hardly uses high-precision electronic technology, even if it encounters EMP, the function will not be affected in any way.

   And it's almost easy to maintain!

  Even if the power is turned off, the hand crank can replace the motor to drive some processing modules on the workbench!

  Compared with those high-precision tools that leave the civilized society, these "original tools" with a long shelf life can bring people a sense of security.

   Seeing this, Irena had a feeling.

  This workbench is much stronger than the workbench of the proprietress of the weapon shop!

   "Get rich, get rich... Work first."

   didn't stay here for too long, Irena, who was looking for the radioactive source, continued to move forward and passed through the door behind the workbench.

   Behind the door should be the living area.

  According to the rising radiation index on the VM, the radioactive source should be inside.

   Stepping into the living area cautiously, Irena saw the dormant cabin facing the door and leaning against the wall at a glance.

   The hatch of the dormant cabin was open, and it looked like it had been broken for a long time.

Judging from the open hatch and scattered parts and tools nearby, someone should have tried to fix it, but failed, and most likely caused a serious electrical accident, which eventually caused the shelter to lose power and the ventilation to stop working, In the end, the people inside were suffocated to death.

  Irena found a single bed next to it, with two skeletons lying flat on the sheet.

   Judging from the shape and size of the bones, both should be adult females, but the exact age is unknown.

   Combining the body found at the door and the only cultivation capsule in the room, Irena arranged and combined at least four possibilities in her mind regarding the question of "who is the owner of the shelter".

   However, it doesn't matter which one is.

   For a player who is eager to clear the dungeon, the story of the dead is insignificant at all.

   After a careful search, Irena quickly found the radioactive source that made his VM jump at a generator-like facility.

   It was a jet-black cylinder that was inserted into a circular groove.

  According to the story background of "Wasteland OL", this thing is probably some kind of civilian fusion battery?

   Or, "fuel rods" for cold fusion generators?

   Anyway, whatever it is in the setting, it is obviously broken, leaving only the damaged casing, and the radioactive residue that has nowhere to be placed.

   In fact, strictly speaking, nuclear fusion should be clean, because the product is helium.

However, the cleanliness here is not absolutely harmless, it is just that the nuclear waste produced by controlled fusion is not that difficult compared to those nuclear wastes produced by nuclear fission that have "radioactive residues that last hundreds of thousands of years". deal with.

   After all, any material that has been irradiated with high-energy neutron rays for a long time has the potential to produce "induced radioactivity". It's just that the radiation dose of this kind of nuclear waste will be much smaller, and the harm is usually "hundred years", which may be gone in a few centuries.

   To put it more bluntly, as long as you don't directly squeeze the "damaged nuclear battery" in your hand, there will be no major problems under normal circumstances.

   This point, "Wasteland OL" is still relatively restored.

   Just like now.

  Irena just held this battery in her hand for a while when she felt like she was going to die...

   "No kidding, I think I can save it."

   took the radioactive source out and threw it away, and returned to the front of the bull and horse team, Irena, who was bleeding non-stop, said with a serious face.

   Gu Feng glanced at him and shook his head.

"Hopeless."

   The nosebleeds are already like this, and you can still stand and talk, that is, in the game.

   In reality, I was lying on the ground unconscious.

"Did you hear? The physics teachers said you were helpless," Ye Shi smiled and patted his shoulder, winking and said, "Stop struggling, brother, go back and make up for yourself while you can still take two steps. Now. We will search for the things in the copy for you, don't worry, your share will not be less!"

   Irena grimaced.

   "I just wanted to ask, can recovering corpses reduce the resurrection CD?"

   Fang Chang also said with a smile.

"How is it possible, haven't you read the official website setting, the resurrection CD is not a death penalty. But you are lucky, at least the VM is not broken, or you have to buy it again. By the way, if you are worried about not being able to support the base, you can Put the VM with us, lest you walk halfway and lie down, and neither the corpse nor the VM is picked up, then it will be a big trouble."

  Irena: "Hey! It's not me that you care about, it's actually VM! Isn't there a little bit of warmth in this cold world?"

   Ye Shi rolled his eyes.

   "Isn't this worrying that you're spending money, it's not caring about you—"

"Okay, stop talking," Lao Bai interrupted Ye Shi's beep with a cough, then looked at Irena and comforted, "We can share you 5% more of the dungeon's revenue, which should be able to compensate. You have lost the past three days. Next time there is a chance for cooperation, we will call you, what do you think?"

  5% is already a lot. After all, the dungeon was discovered by the Niu Ma team, and the output was basically played by a few of them, and the ammunition and supplies were consumed a lot.

   As a passerby who got on the bus halfway through, Irena’s share in the agreement was originally only 10%, and an extra 5% is quite kind.

  Old Bai's words finally made Irena feel that there is still a little warmth left in this cold world.

   With a tragic look on her face, she shook her nosebleed, and Irena took off her VM and handed it over to Lao Bai.

   "Tell Xiaoyu for me, just say..."

   was only halfway through, when the man fell to the ground with a thud.

   Ye Shi couldn't hold back, and laughed out a pig scream.

   The wind turned his head sideways, his shoulders shaking.

   Looking at the puddle of blood on his sleeve, the old white was covered in black lines, and finally sighed.

   "I'll get him out of the van first."

   "Let's drag it back together later."
