This Game is Too Real

   Chapter 2 Vault 404

  Chu Guang, male, 26 years old, his parents divorced when he was young, and he grew up with his grandfather.

  The second year after he was admitted to university, his grandfather died, and he was left alone.

  Fortunately, I was born in a time of peace, and I finished my studies by working and studying. After graduation, I found a job in sales. Because of the outstanding performance of the work and the appreciation of the boss, it didn't take long for the newcomer to refer to the supervisor.

   The most difficult days have come through. Just when Chu Guang optimistically thought that he could finally live a few days of comfort, this God just didn't play cards according to the routine.

   And this time, fate played a little bigger with him.

   About five months ago.

  Chu Guang still remembers that when he was negotiating a 20 million contract with a client, the boss was having a good time.

   When he came back to his senses, the man was already lying in a wilderness.

   Moreover, this is no ordinary wilderness ridge.

   Walking two miles in a row, he didn't see a single figure, but he was almost eaten by a big dog with two heads.

   also thanks to the beast with two heads.

  Chu Guang was frightened by a cold sweat, and as soon as the sweat broke out, the wine suddenly woke up, turned around and ran away.

   Maybe it was because the two heads were too heavy and they ran uncoordinated. The dog chased him for a while but didn't catch up, and gave up after two oohs.

  Can't see the beast, Chu Guang didn't dare to go back, let alone where to go.

   Only then did he realize that his wallet and mobile phone were gone, and even his clothes had been replaced with a blue jacket that he had picked up from nowhere.

   I found a small puddle, and looked down at the moonlight, my dear, not only did I change my outfit, but also my head!

   I don't know which guy with a mental problem made him dizzy, he changed his face, and was thrown into this ghost place where he can't go to the village or the store.

  While Chu Guang was wandering in the wilderness, the smoke from the cooking smoke in the distance caught his attention.

   Looking back now, Chu Guang is still a little scared.

   At that time, he was all thinking about calling the police, and he ran to the wisp of people desperately. After thinking about it, he was lucky to have encountered a place where the survivors live.

   Instead, they are predators who kill without blinking an eye, or cannibals, mutant tribes, etc., I am afraid that others are already stewing in the pot.

   Maybe even the leather shoes are familiar!

After    contact with the survivors who lived here, Chu Guang learned from bits and pieces of clues that this place is no longer the country of China, or even the earth that he is familiar with!

  In this parallel world, the war two hundred years ago destroyed all the achievements of civilization, leaving only a devastated wasteland and the survivors lingering on the wasteland.

   And now, it is 2340 years.

   is also the 211th year since the beginning of 2129, after human civilization entered the era of wasteland!

   Confused.

Shock.

  Indescribable fear.

   Fortunately, Chu Guang's ability to accept is quite strong. After the initial days, he gradually began to adapt to the life here.

   lived in the wasteland for five months, eating every day but not the next, and had to fight wits with mutant creatures and malicious predators.

   Just when Chu Guang pessimistically thought that this was the case in his life, everything changed a few hours ago.

   In the wreckage of an abandoned sanatorium, he found the entrance to the shelter numbered 404.

   To be precise, it was not Chu Guang who found it, but the facility called "Refuge No. 404" that found Chu Guang.

   The voice that sounded in his mind guided him to come here.

   When Chu Guang approached the sanatorium, he suddenly realized that this was the place where he had just woken up in this world!

  If I hadn't run around, or if the sky was a little brighter, I might have found it!

   In any case, the "plug-in" that was five months late finally arrived.

   At the same time, a brand new job was placed in front of him.

   As if this sanctuary was prepared for him, he had been waiting for a long time.

   From the moment he stepped into the gate of the Vault, his identity changed from a scavenger to the only resident and manager of Vault 404.

   And his job is only one thing.

   That is to use the Internet on Earth to guide - or to fool a group of creatures called "players" to come to this world to work for him.

  Yes, the black technology in this sanctuary can not only connect to the Internet in the parallel world, but even has its own "official website"!

   The player who pre-registered the game will automatically get a number and register it in the [Refuge Resident Directory] in the manager system.

   As the manager, Chu Guang can choose a specific number to issue "game qualifications".

The    system will send the game helmet to the player in a special way. Players only need to put on the helmet and connect to the culture pod in the shelter to wake up as a clone.

   is very user-friendly.

   is also very convenient!

  Although there will be no punishment for strikes, the reward for completing the task is something that Chu Guang cannot refuse no matter what.

   Like that body armor.

   After struggling to survive in the wasteland for five months, he knew too much how important this life-saving thing was.

   In addition, the points of quest rewards are also good things, which can be exchanged for a reward called "Blind Box" on the [Administrator Allowance] page.

   It takes 1 bonus point to purchase the beginner blind box, 10 points for the intermediate blind box, and 100 points for the advanced blind box.

  According to the explanation of the [Administrator Allowance] function by the "Vault 404 Manager System", the types and quantities of things drawn from the blind box are not fixed, but there will be a little bit, that is to say, there is no such thing as "thank you for your patronage".

  Blind boxes of different levels determine the guaranteed reward.

   For example, the primary blind box can also dispense food supplies at the last time, the intermediate blind box guarantees medicines, and the advanced blind box can dispense weapons.

   As for whether the primary blind box can open the intermediate blind box prize, it is not written in the description of the system, but if you think about it, the probability is estimated to be low.

   Just as Chu Guang was pondering, whether to use all the 5 points in his hand to open the primary blind box, or when he had saved enough 100 points to draw a weapon, the "wastepaper basket" squatting in the corner spoke again.

   "Master, the new task has been updated in your manager log, please check it in time."

   "Got it." Chu Guang replied impatiently.

Oh shit.

   Who is the master!

   rolled his eyes towards the corner, Chu Guang put aside the matter of taking out the blind box for the time being, thinking about the manager system in his heart.

   Soon, a light blue holographic screen was projected on his retina.

  ——Administrator Log——

  【Mission: The activation conditions of Vault 404 have been met, and the first batch of "contained objects" has been confirmed to be delivered, requiring at least one player to log in to the game.

  Type: Mainline.

   Bonus: Active Substance Extractor.

  】

  【Task: Prepare a generator with a power greater than 10kw.

  Type: branch line.

   Bonus: Bonus Points +100.

  】

I go?

  100 bonus points? !

   After reading the tasks updated in the manager's log, Chu Guang's eyes were straight.

   But what he cared about more was the reward for that main quest.

   "Active Substance Extractor... What is this thing for?"

   Xiaoqi replied.

   "The active substance is the raw material for making clones. As for how to use it, there should be something like an instruction manual?"

  As an AI assistant, in fact, Xiaoqi doesn't know much information.

   At present, the authority that Chu Guang has can only reach the B1 floor of the shelter, and the authority of other floors needs to be unlocked through the main quest.

   By the way, if you forcibly destroy the wall structure of the shelter and try to illegally invade other floors, it will cause interruption of the shelter's electrical facilities and air exchange facilities.

   This was told to him by the "Refuge System" loaded into his brain when he first entered the shelter.

   But even without this reminder, Chu Guang felt that he probably wouldn't be able to do the stupid thing of tearing down the house.

joke.

   This place is demolished, where will he live in the future?

   In addition, this kind of shelter that "integrates the great advantage of pre-war technology and is designed to resist strategic nuclear strikes" is not so easy to dismantle.

   Forget about nuclear bombs, he doesn't even have a gun.

   "Okay, I probably understand."

   That is to say, active substances are similar to "resurrection coins", which are resources that players need to consume to re-synthesize clones.

   At present, there are 100 cultivation cabins stored in the B1 floor, all of which are in an activatable state. I think there should be 1 unit of active substances built in, which can supply the consumption of the initial synthesis of clones.

  According to the setting of the system "one machine, one number", Chu Guang can now summon up to 100 "players" to come to this world in the form of clones.

   Of course, Chu Guang knew in his heart that things were not as simple as they seemed.

   First of all, there is currently no traffic on the official website of "Wasteland OL".

  The first reaction of most people after hearing the propaganda of "100% real immersive virtual reality game" is either a lie or a lie.

   After all, this kind of technology does not exist in reality, and even the self-media cannot make up such nonsense.

  Secondly, even if 11 players were coaxed by him to place an appointment, he could not be sure that these 11 people would listen to him.

  The initiative to enter the game and log out of the game is in the hands of the players themselves.

   And his own power can only "forced kick out", "ban login permission", and "confiscate game qualifications" for disturbing players, but cannot force them to wear helmets and go online to work for themselves.

   Therefore, the candidates for issuing game qualifications-especially the candidates for the first batch of "closed beta" players, must be cautious.

   would rather be less than messing around.

  Otherwise, you are completely making trouble for yourself!

   And then, and most importantly.

  The conditions on the wasteland side have also been decided. At this time, the more people, the better.

   One more person means one more mouth.

   He is as poor as a ghost now, and he can hardly support himself, let alone a hundred more mouths.

   Even if he has the conditions now, he will open up all the 100 training cabins, and he will also send rations to the aliens and predators.

   Other than that, it doesn't make any sense.

  Chu Guang returned to the computer and sat down again.

   pondered calmly in front of the screen for a long time, and his thoughts gradually became clear.

   Boarded his Penguin again, Chu Guang then opened the game group called "Cow and Horse Club" and opened a discussion group for the group owner and the three managers.

   Then, in the group, pick out the words.

  【When you reserve the game, please send me the refreshed number on the official website. 】

   [There are only four qualifications for the packaging and testing, and the fat and water will not flow to outsiders. I apply to the company to see if I can send you the qualifications for packaging and testing and the game helmet directly. 】

   They are all teammates who used to drive black chicken, so it wouldn’t be awkward to take care of them.

   The most important thing is that Chu Guang couldn't think of an acquaintance that he could rely on in reality, and he could only rely on these netizens who had never seen him in reality, but had some friendship.

relative?

  After grandpa left, he hadn't moved for many years. If the police didn't notify him, he might not have known that he was gone.

landlord?

   At this moment, I am afraid that the whole world will find myself asking for rent.

classmate?

  I haven't been in touch since graduation.

colleague?

Ha ha.

   Probably felt bad luck, Chu Guang found that they had deleted himself.

   Moreover, even if he didn't delete it, Chu Guang couldn't have sent them a message, after all, he was resting at the wine table at the time.

  The dead send messages to the living, it's scary enough to think about it.

   In contrast, these sand sculpture netizens are undoubtedly the best choice.

   They don’t know themselves in reality, and even if they haven’t been online for five months, they won’t think too much about it.

   The white horse crossed the gap: [The big boss is bullied! 】

   Level 8 Gale: [Cow, ah, ah! 】

   Coming to Japan Fangchang: [666! 】

   got up a dozen times a night: [Okay! Big brother is invincible! Waiting for your gaming helmet! (funny)】

  Chu Guang continued typing and exhorting.

  【But there is one thing I have to declare, the equipment can only be lent to you, so don’t lose it, let alone disassemble it, or I can’t explain it to the company. 】

  【In addition, the device will be bound with the user's identity information. In principle, only one account can be registered for one device, and it can only be used by one person. 】

   is actually an exhortation, but he is not worried that the players will not obey.

  According to the system, the helmet will identify the player's identity information, and non-players can't use it at all.

   As for the equipment…

   He doesn't care about that.

  Since the system can deliver the helmet to the player, there must be a way to solve the problem of "after-sales service", which is not what he needs to care about.

   Fangchang from Japan: [Are there any charges? 】

  Chu Guang: [There is no fee for the packaging and testing stage, but because of the shortage of funds, there is no salary. 】

   Fangchang from Japan: [6666, I sent you my number privately, send me a copy. 】

   Baiju passed the gap: [Cow leather, hahaha, give me a whole one too, if you really said that the fully immersive virtual reality, I live broadcast handstand diarrhea! 】

   Level 8 Gale: [Haha, we also support a wave. 】

   got up a dozen times a night: [(funny.jpg)]

Although these four brothers obviously didn't believe what he said, let alone that kind of fully immersive virtual reality game really existed in this world, they still put their numbers in the mentality of "playing with him". Sent over.

   is just a number generated by the official website.

   is not a bank card number and password.

   Besides, they are also very curious, what kind of medicine is sold in this guy's gourd...

   After receiving the number, Chu Guang did not hesitate, and immediately called out the manager system, found the [Refuge Resident Directory], and checked "Issuing Game Qualifications" after the four numbers.

   It takes three days to synthesize clones in the culture chamber.

   During these three days, the system will use special means to deliver the game helmet to the player... You don't even need to fill in the delivery address.

   As for the specific method used, whether it will attract the attention of modern society, or whether it is suspected of illegal operation of these troublesome issues, Chu Guang is even more lazy to worry about it.

   He wants more people to notice his official website, and it is even better to cause a sensation.

   In this way, he has more choices.

   "Master, isn't there already 11 players who have made reservations on our official website? Why are you only giving out 4 places?"

   It may be that he noticed the activated training cabin in the next room, and Xiao Qi, who was crouching in the corner, expressed his doubts.

   "Because I won't use that much for the time being."

   turned off the [Refuge Resident Directory].

  Chu Guang then opened the [Manage Sub-Perks] page in the system, and smashed all five reward points on the "Primary Blind Box".

   There is no point in saving up to buy advanced blind boxes.

   The reward of task 2 is directly 100 points, which is not less than 5 points.

   The light blue holographic screen flickered with fluorescent light, and the wall on one side of the room vibrated gently again. With a light click, the alloy door of the "shipping port" opened.

   Looking at the thing lying on the platform, Chu Guang was slightly stunned.

   "This...is the blind box?"

   Xiaoqi replied.

"probably."

  Chu Guang calmed down and said.

   "I thought the prize would at least come in a box."

  Xiaoqi tried to explain.

   "Maybe the blind box is just a setting?"

   But what's the point of a blind box that doesn't need to be unpacked?

  Why not just call the lottery?

   Staring at the reward in front of the conveyor belt, Chu Guang was silent for a while.

   "I understand the truth."

   "But why I exchanged five, but only four came up???"

   New book upload, ask for tickets! dalao! In addition, if there is any kind of ID that is easy to remember and has characteristics, you can also leave a message here. The starting point ID or the commonly used group nickname and circle name can be used.

   That's right, this is the Dragon Tower, which is valid for a long time! (perhaps)
