This Game is Too Real

   Chapter 141 Salute to you! Residents of Vault 404

  Luo Hua and Ai Si continued to build the barracks, but the players around were impatient and chatted impatiently.

   "It's too slow to rely on these NPCs!"

   "That's right! It's so frustrating to build a shed."

   "Can't you just set up a table and get things done? Don't know how to work around!"

   "How long will it take for these NPCs to be employed? Can you give me a progress bar? I think I should cut down two trees first."

   "It's too slow! I can't stand it anymore, I'm going to open a new map, I'm going to move bricks to the new map!"

  If Luo Hua and Ai Si knew that the residents of these shelters complained about their inefficiency there, I don't know what expressions they would show.

Happy?

   After all, people are eager to work.

   Speechless?

   is not without reason, after all, no one likes to be urged.

   But the two of them didn't understand.

   As if the surrounding players couldn't understand it, the NPC named Luo Hua was chattering about something.

   "Don't these blue jackets have anything else to do except watch the fun? Why don't you come and help us when you are so idle."

  Ace: "..."

  Luo Hua: "Speaking of what do we have for lunch?"

  Ace: "Freeze-dried food."

Luo Hua: "Hey, well, I guessed it was freeze-dried food. When I think of those people sitting in the air-conditioned room drinking hot cocoa and playing poker, and I have to chat with a group of blue jackets, I want to ask Is this reasonable? I'd rather not have that 50CR subsidy per day! Speaking of which, what's the use of money in this ghost place? The indigenous people don't want these waste papers at all, how many times is this?"

  Ace: "..."

   Maybe realizing that he was a little annoying, Luo Hua sighed.

   "Okay... I admit I'm a bit too talkative, let's get to work."

  Ace: "Agree."

   Take advantage of the fact that there is no snow now, the barracks must be erected first.

   took out the folding bracket from the box that Ais had carried earlier, Luo Hua carefully marked four points on the ground with the help of a protractor, inserted the bracket firmly, and then surrounded the four walls with a plastic sheet.

  The frame of a model house came out like this.

   Of course, it’s not over yet.

  Luo Hua then used a marker and a ruler to draw the doors and windows on the plastic film, while Ai Si, who was on the side, held a metal can with a nozzle and blew gray foam against the transparent plastic film.

  These foams are very light, highly sticky, fine and uniform in texture, the pores are invisible to the naked eye, and the surface has a matte color texture.

  Luo Hua took out the folding spatula and skillfully spread the foam sprayed on the plastic film evenly.

   The whole job looks as easy as putting cream on plastic wrap.

  The light gray foam quickly smeared a layer on the plastic film. After it was completely cured, the color of the foam gradually darkened, and the whole became a foam wall that looked no different from concrete.

   Of course, just looks.

  If you touch it by hand, the texture of polymer material and silicate material is still very different.

  [Leave a man under the knife] standing aside, his eyes were straight, and his mouth kept chattering.

   "What the hell? What material is this? Polyurethane? It doesn't look like it... Is it sprayed directly on the plastic film? Can this thing be used as an exterior wall?"

  Ye Shi said with a hippie smile: "Be more imaginative, the background settings are all in the future, is it weird to build a house with foam?"

   I kept someone under the knife for a while, and finally convinced myself.

   "That's right, it's a game after all."

   As a game setting, it is not unacceptable.

   The first foam wall was completed quickly, and the second wall followed suit. When the two NPCs finished the construction of the second wall, the first wall was completely dry.

  In less than 30 minutes, a weatherproof and warm mobile barracks was completed.

  Although the shelf life is less than one year and the quality is not as reliable as the serious "silicate material", it is completely sufficient as a temporary facility!

   Standing on the third floor of the sanatorium, Chu Guang looked envious.

   These guys are really a lot of goodies.

  Have to find a way to do something...

   At this time, the old Luca who came back from outside, walked towards the guests who came from afar, and handed Luo Hua a VM.

  Luo Hua gave the old man a strange look, but did not reach out to pick it up.

   "We don't bring this stuff."

   Old Luca said respectfully.

   "This is what the manager ordered me to send to you. It can help you to have some simple communication with the residents of these shelters."

   It was only then that he remembered the language barrier, and Luo Hua stopped rejecting it and took over the VM from Luca.

"OK, thanks."

   Luca nodded slightly.

"You're welcome."

  …

   After the barracks was built, two signs, one large and one small, were erected at the entrance, with the words ["Pioneer's Outpost Office at No. 404"] and [Volunteer Registration Office] in Chinese characters.

   Exactly.

   These words were written by Chu Guang, and they look neat.

   Meanwhile, almost all players near the outpost received a message alert on the VM, and players without the VM heard the broadcast echoing inside the base.

  【Server Announcement: Quartermaster NPC is now online! A new building has been added to the outpost - the "Pioneer" office in Outpost 404! 】

  【Quarterman Luo Hua: Dear residents of Vault 404, salute you! I'm the quartermaster from the Trailblazer, and we're having a little trouble with our land-based fortress. This request may be presumptuous, but we need you! 】

  [Tip 1: The quartermaster from the Pioneer seems to have some troubles, an exclamation mark appears on the map, hurry up and talk to him. 】

  [Tip 2: The VM role page is now updating the exclusive event scores for the expansion pack. Go to the new area to perform tasks to get event scores! For characters without a VM, you can check the score at NPC Luca or the administrator assistant Xiao Qi, or log in to the official website to check after you are offline! 】

  The entrance to the barracks was surrounded by a human wall.

   Almost as soon as the announcement was received, the players ran so fast that they almost overturned the table at the door.

   "Me, me, me! Tail wants to sign up!"

   "Choose me! I'm a power type! Moving bricks is amazing!"

   "Hey! You are so strong to keep moving bricks! Stop squeezing, I'm going to die!"

   "How can this be squeezed in." Yowya, who couldn't squeeze through, stood at the edge of the crowd and stomped her feet anxiously. She put her toes on her toes and looked inside, and the whole person was desperate.

   The collision volume in this game is so annoying!

   If only it could be passed through other players like other MMORPGs.

"Give it up." Looking up at her, Teng Teng sighed and looked up at the sky, "It feels like an Internet celebrity milk tea shop has suddenly opened downstairs. I can never make it anyway, so I might as well wait for them. Let's try it when it's cold."

  Yaya suddenly came back to her senses.

   "It makes sense... Anyway, every three days, we can still wait for the first wave of players' strategies."

  Tujito nodded in agreement.

   "Yes?"

   I didn’t expect the residents here to be so enthusiastic, and Luo Hua, who was in charge of registering the list, was a little caught off guard for a while.

   Ace, who was standing beside him, was also stunned.

   She actually saw a bear in the crowd?

   And also a white bear.

   "...how could there be a bear?"

   How could Luo Hua, who was sweating profusely, take care of all this. He just took pictures with his tablet to register, and hurriedly handed out numbered badges to people.

   "Ghost knows, it's probably their pet... Come and help me!"

  Ace: "..."

   It was the first time she saw such a well-behaved bear, looking at the furry feeling.

Well.

   A little bit like RUA.

The entrance to the    office was in chaos.

   Fortunately, the manager had anticipated this situation in advance, and sent a helper to assist him in completing the registration.

   After completing the personnel registration.

  Luo Hua set up a cauldron and an antenna on the barracks. After a short period of debugging, he finally received the contact signal from the "Pioneer".

  The voice of a colleague in the logistics department came from the radio station.

   "...How is the situation on your side?"

Luo Hua: "It went very smoothly, it went beyond my imagination! The blue jackets were so enthusiastic. As soon as our office opened, they all swarmed up... To be honest, I'm a little touched, but I don't think so. To think that such a group of kind-hearted people live in the far inland area!"

The    communication channel was silent for a while.

  Li De coughed and continued.

   "...It's quite surprising."

  Luo Hua: "Let's not talk about my side, how long will it take for you to arrive there? Looking at their appearance, I can't wait."

  Li De: "It's almost there, our captain is 2 kilometers away from you."

  Luo Hua: "Captain?"

  Li De: "Yes, he personally led the team and escorted our reinforcements."

  …

   leaned his shoulders against the door of the weapon shop, biting a frozen and wilted dog's tail grass in his mouth, Xia Yan watched the lively scene at the entrance of the office from a distance.

  No players bothered her today, they all went to the new "NPC" to line up.

   After working here for so long, she has accepted the identity of "NPC".

   However, occasionally she would be confused by this identity, because Chu Guang always emphasized the difference between NPCs and players, and said that NPCs rarely called themselves NPCs, just like players rarely called themselves players.

   So what is the significance of this identity?

  This cosplay is weird enough.

   At this time, Chu Guang walked towards her with a long shuttle-shaped weapon.

   "I need you to help me make something. This is a sample. The material should be made of tungsten steel or other metals with a higher melting point. Others can be copied in a one-to-one ratio."

   "Okay, I'll check it out for you later."

   reached out and took the strangely shaped shuttle. Xia Yan looked at Chu Guang's exoskeleton curiously and asked, "Where did you get this set of exoskeletons from?"

   Seeing that someone finally noticed the difference between him and yesterday, a smile appeared on Chu Guang's face.

   "He's handsome."

   "It's okay," Xia Yan couldn't help rolling his eyes when he looked at this guy's stinky fart, "So where did you get it from?"

   "picked up."

  Xiayan: "..."

  Chu Guang smiled and said, "Just kidding, I found it in the shelter."

  Xia Yan said helplessly, "I'll just ask casually. If it's not convenient for you to answer, forget it. How did you deal with the people in the company?"

   "They came yesterday and helped us with the mutants on 76th Street...what's the problem?"

   Aware of Xia Yan's strange expression, Chu Guang couldn't help but cast a questioning look at her.

   "No, I just think it's a little weird," Xia Yan looked at the two people not far away with an intriguing expression, "A long, long time ago, the company's expeditionary force came to Qingquan City."

"Expedition?"

"Yes, but that was a long time ago. And I heard that the 'enterprise' is very big, and there are many internal factions, gathering around the east coast. I heard that they were not called enterprises at first, just because they often changed their vests, others They simply called them by the name of the company. Later, they may have become accustomed to it, or they may think that this vest is the most famous, and began to call themselves by the company.”

  Chu Guang looked at her unexpectedly.

   "You still know this?"

  Xia Yan said indifferently: "It's not a secret, but the expedition is a long time ago, and I was not born at that time."

  Chu Guang: "Then do you know what they are here for?"

"What else can I do? They said it was an expedition, so it must be a war?" Xia Yan gave him a strange look, "Anyway, I only heard that they lost in the end. Afterwards, it became difficult for the whole Qingquan City to see their people. , but they often see their caravans coming to do business."

   It seems that the folk customs of Qingquan City are quite sturdy.

   But think about it, the straight-line distance of thousands of kilometers and the supply line of tens of thousands of kilometers, if you don’t lose, you will be a ghost.

   Hearing some interesting information, Chu Guang nodded with satisfaction.

   "Okay, I'll talk to you when I get back. I'm going to go out. If you have anything to do, you can contact Xiaoqi, she can find me."

  Xia Yan: "Where are you going? What fortress?"

"What are you doing there?" Chu Guang glanced at the map on the VM and set a coordinate on it, "There is a signal tower on 76th Street, it should be near the mutant's lair, I plan to go there and look for it. , and see if it can be fixed."

   There was Luca watching over the "Pioneer", so there was no need for Chu Guang to go there in person. His players are his eyes, and what they see will naturally be shared on the forum.

   Now the top priority is to repair the signal tower.

  The signal tower has been repaired, and the communication radius of Vault 404 can cover the entire northern suburbs of Qingquan City at least, and the range of drone activities will be further expanded.

   At that time, it will be much more convenient than now, whether it is sending tasks to players or peeping at his little players.

   "You'd better pay attention to safety, or bring two people with you?"

   This is definitely not because of concern, Xia Yan is purely worried about losing this meal ticket.

   Even her old father who doesn't know where he died has never raised her like this. It doesn't matter whether the devil is a devil or not. She thinks that the devil is pretty good now.

"makes sense."

  Chu Guang thought about it, and thought it made sense.

   However, now the players' interests are all focused on the expansion, and I'm afraid they have little interest in doing ordinary tasks.

   But Chu Guang was not in a hurry, anyway, he would have to wait for a while.

   There are currently 250 players on the server, and his contract with Captain Luyan only promises to send 200 workers. And this also means that no matter how hard they try to grab it, there will definitely be 50 small players who are not qualified for a while, pounding their chests and feeling heartbroken.

   As a manager with high emotional intelligence, Chu Guang felt that it was necessary to comfort them who were hurt in their hearts.

Um.

   It's time to pick two high-quality human cannon fodder, and follow yourself to stroll around the mutant's lair.
