This Game is Too Real

  Chapter 244 Another batch of fresh small leeks enter the market

   The next morning.

   The caravan, which had rested all night, was packing up and preparing to set off on the road.

  According to Liszt's plan, his caravan would continue to go to Red River Town, and at the same time, a small team would be divided and returned to Boulder City lightly.

   Of course, the team that returned to Boulder was not completely empty-handed.

   According to the contract between him and Chu Guang.

  The team will bring 100kg of spirit leaves and 10 pieces of devil silk cloth.

  A piece of cloth is a roll, about 13 meters, and weighs about 10 kilograms. It is mainly some overstocked inventory.

   As for the spiritual leaf, it is a special product of the greenhouse site.

  Some wastelanders like to use it to make spiritual water for refreshing, or mix it with shredded tobacco and roll it into cigarettes. However, this thing is mildly addictive, and a lot of use can easily lead to dependence.

  Before the caravan set off, Chu Guang found Mole and Fang Chang, who were fleeing in the canyon.

   These two brothers are the players who understand him the best among all the players, or in other words, the players who understand the version the best.

   He needs two people to do one thing for him.

   For this task, only the two of them are the most suitable.

   "I have two important tasks for you here."

  When they heard this sentence, the two players were stunned for a moment, and then their excited expressions were printed on their faces.

   Hidden quests!

   And it’s still an important task!

  Thinking of this, Mole couldn't help trembling with excitement, straightened his back and said.

   "I would like to serve you, dear administrator!"

   Sure enough, this game has a favorability setting!

   Not in vain for his constant diligence!

   Fang Chang, who was standing beside him, was dumbfounded.

   Good guy.

   This Nima is too lickable!

   It was too late to despise Mole, for fear that Fang Chang would fall, he quickly added a sentence with a serious face.

   "Me too, respectful and great administrator! In order to recreate the glory of the People's Federation and the glory of 404, I am willing to go through fire and water for you and do whatever it takes!"

   Just licking an NPC.

   It's not that he hasn't licked in other games.

   As long as you can trigger the hidden mission, it is not shabby!

  Chu Guang: "..."

  While he would have liked the players to roll up, he still wanted them to roll in more useful places instead of getting his goosebumps out.

   Cleared his throat, Chu Guang decided to pretend he didn't hear anything and continued.

   "The winter is over, in order to carry out the next step, we need to strengthen the connection with the surrounding areas."

"The caravan we have made friends with is planning to go to Boulder City and Honghe Town, and I plan to send a representative to investigate the local situation to understand the living standards and spiritual outlook of the survivors there, and the most important thing is to understand their needs. "

   To put it simply, it is to inquire about information and inspect the market by the way.

  Chu Guang did not fully believe in Liszt, things could be done by capable people, but after all, his eyes had to grow on his own body.

   It just so happens that these two players are big guys who like to write strategies.

   I believe that you don’t need to suggest it yourself, as long as you throw them over, you will definitely touch it all over the place.

   As Chu Guang had expected, after hearing his words, the eyes of the two little players could not wait to shine.

  Boulder City and Red River Town!

  New map!

   And you can open two at a time!

   Obviously, the game production team has completed the design of the new map, but it has not yet been fully opened, so I asked two people to test it first.

   The two of them immediately guessed the intention of the plan, and they were even more excited.

   "I'm going to Boulder City!" Fang Chang responded the fastest and spoke first.

   Mole's reaction was half a beat, but he recovered immediately.

   "Hey, I want to go to Boulder City too!"

   Anyone with discerning eyes can see that the merchants from Boulder City and the merchants from Honghe Town are obviously stronger.

   After all, the caravan stationed at the door even used the transformation of the prosthetic body, and the style of painting seems to have come out of Cyber ​​2077.

   On the other hand, although the merchants in Honghe Town came twice, the style of the people who came every time was the same as that of the big cousin in the wilderness.

  Who has more money, at a glance!

   Fang Chang looked at Mole and tried to bribe him to make concessions.

   "Brother, how about giving me this opportunity for 200 silver coins?"

   Mole: "Fuck off, at least 300 silver coins!"

   Fang Chang: "It's 250 silver coins. No, let's roll some or rock paper scissors, that's the fairest way."

   Mole said with a look of grief and indignation: "You bastard! Didn't you promise not to fight with me next time? Would you like to roll with me?"

   The main reason is that his face is too dark, and he himself cannot trust his luck.

   Fang Chang coughed dryly.

   "I was talking about the auction...and I didn't say that. Besides, it's obviously me who called first, so it's logically you and me grab it."

   Mole: "@#%!"

  Chu Guang: "..."

   These two really treat themselves as air.

   But that's reasonable.

   After all, he has played a lot of foolishness by relying on his identity as an NPC.

   In the end, Mole weighed the pros and cons, and finally chose 250 silver coins.

The probability of   roll points and rock-paper-scissors is 50 to 50. If you lose, you will not have the money.

   Besides, it is not bad to go to Honghe Town.

  Although it is obvious that Boulder City is more developed, there are opportunities in underdeveloped places. Obviously, for a long time in the future, the focus of the outpost's trade will be outside Qingquan City, not the area around the Third Ring Road.

   Seeing that the two have determined their respective jobs, Chu Guang looked at them and continued.

   "I'll have a guard follow you, act as your interpreter, and help you communicate with the locals."

   "Remember, you represent the image of Vault 404. I hope you can pay attention to your identity and keep our mission in mind when you are outside."

   After listening to the manager's instructions, Fang Chang and Mole folded their fists and said solemnly.

   "Don't worry, Mr. Manager!"

   "Please leave it to us!"

  …

The    caravan set off on the road.

   Fang Chang and Mole followed, and waved goodbye to the players at the south gate.

   "Goodbye, brothers! Waiting for our good news!"

   "Rest assured, we will bring first-hand information to the forum!"

   However, the players at the door did not appreciate it.

   Especially seeing the smug expressions on the faces of these two people, the lemons in their mouths became more sour.

   "Hey! These two European emperors!"

   "MMP! Shady! Must be Shady!"

   "I don't care! If you don't choose me, it's a shady! Unless you let me go too!"

   "I'm afraid there is some ulterior py transaction behind this."

   Hearing these guys choreographing themselves there, Mole Rat couldn't help shouting.

   "Shadows are shady with hammers! Opportunities are reserved for those who are prepared, what do you know?"

   Fang Chang couldn't help but say something.

   "That's right! Do you know how hard it is for us to brush up our favorability?"

   No matter whether you are satisfied or not, in the end, the two of them received the task.

  Just like that, in the eyes of the players with envy and hatred, the two little players followed the caravan with pride and disappeared into the woods.

  After leaving the wetland park, the caravan divided into two groups, and the main force continued to set off along the original route to Honghe Town, which is located in the east of Qingquan City.

  The other team took the devil silk and spiritual leaves purchased from the outpost and returned to the Stone City, where they purchased the equipment needed to open the factory and collected technicians who could operate the equipment.

   Getting farther and farther from the park, Xu Shun, who was wearing casual clothes, looked at Qian Lai who was walking beside him and asked.

   "How long does it take to get to Boulder from here?"

   Qian Lai said with a smile.

   "Look at how many people there are. If a caravan is like us, it will take three days to travel slowly, and it may arrive in two days if it is fast."

   Actually have to spend the night outside.

   Xu Shun nodded thoughtfully.

   He grew up in the northern suburbs when he was a child. He only heard that the Boulder City was very prosperous, but he only heard about it all the time. There are many aliens and predators along the way, which is full of danger, and it is difficult for ordinary people to walk alone.

The guard next to    interjected.

   "Be careful on the road, let's not be too far apart, we encountered predators when we came. Although they didn't shoot us, it's hard to say when there are few people... We'll bypass that area in a while."

   Xu Shun said unexpectedly.

   "Are there predators?"

   Qian Lai said with a smile.

   "It's just some little guys hiding in the ruins. This is very common. Maybe some people were mercenaries or traders yesterday, and for some reason the next day, they decided to change to a more comfortable way of living."

   said the guard beside him.

   "They're like cockroaches, always popping up when you don't expect them, and you can't kill them all."

   Hearing this, Xu Shun couldn't help tightening the rifle on his back.

   Seeing his serious look, Qian Lai couldn't help feeling a little funny, so he joked.

   "Brother, how old are you this year?"

   "Seventeen."

   "Seventeen? Then I'm a few years older than you, and I'll be twenty in a few months."

   Xu Shun looked at the brother in surprise.

   "I can't see it."

   He thought this guy was as big as Jixiang...

   "If you are like me, you have been following your boss since you were twelve years old, and you will become like an old man when you reach my age."

  Qian Lai pointed to his weathered face and said helplessly.

   "For example, if you look at our boss, just by his appearance, can you guess that he is only in his early thirties?"

   Xu Shun nodded as if he understood.

"I see."

   "But our manager... looks quite young."

   Qian Lai shook his head.

"But don't think so, the blue coat in the shelter, you can't guess how old you are just by looking at his face. Don't look at his 20-year-old appearance, maybe he is actually an old monster who has lived for more than a hundred years. indefinite."

   Xu Shun: "Is this still possible?!"

  Qian Lai: "You go to too few places. You'll know when you go out more."

   Fang Chang, who was walking beside him, looked bewildered the whole time. He stared at the VM for a long time, but did not see the subtitles popping out.

   What are these two talking about?

  …

   Not long after the caravan set off, a group of fresh little cuties finally waited for the time to unlock the game.

   B3 floor of the shelter.

  In the square in front of the elevator, it was full of people, and the noisy voices were crowded together.

   "Damn it?! What's so special about virtual reality?!"

   "Fantastic! I almost went to see a brain department, but I didn't expect it to be true!"

   "Am I dreaming? Shouldn't I be dreaming? Woohoo, if it's a dream, please don't wake me up!"

   This light!

   This wall!

   And this realistic touch!

   Many people did not recover from the shock.

   At this time, a player shouted in the square.

   "Brothers, I am the sword of silver! Where are my two siblings?"

   Soon someone answered him.

   "Here is the Silver Hand!"

  The Silver Sword happily stepped forward and took his hand.

   "Brother, have you seen the silver shield?"

  Silver Hand shook his head: "I didn't see it, that guy from Silver Shield didn't know where he went. I searched for a long time and couldn't see anyone calling this ID."

  Silver Sword stunned: "Did he get the reservation qualification?"

  Silver Hand: "I got it, I specifically asked him about it just now! As a result, I went into the game and shouted for a long time, but no one answered."

   At this moment, a voice suddenly came from the side.

   "You two are Silver Hand and Silver Sword?"

   looked back and saw a short-haired man standing there.

   That cheap smile, the two of them recognized at a glance that they were their good brothers.

   "Fuck, where are you going?"

   "I've been looking for you for a long time."

  The man smiled shyly and said embarrassedly.

   "Uh, actually my ID is not called Silver Shield."

  Silver Hand was stunned: "What's that called?"

   Silver Daddy: "Silver Daddy."

  Silver Hand: "???"

  Silver Sword: "Fuck you! Didn't you agree to call it the Silver Shield before registering your ID?"

  Daddy Yin: "Hey, good son."

  Silver Sword: "Blank!"

  Silver Hand: "Spicy next door!"

  The whole hall on the B3 floor was full of loud noises.

   Since most of the way the game is spread is word of mouth among various groups, many people know it outside the game.

   As soon as the server was launched, everyone recognized their relatives everywhere.

   stood beside the elevator, his tail touched his chin, and nodded old-fashioned.

   "Oh, yes, this year's newcomers are very energetic!"

  Siss: "Have you decided which one to choose?"

  Tail: "No hurry, no hurry, Tail decided to take a look!"

  Siss: "Wait a second, the high-quality newcomers will be snatched away."

  Tail: "Damn, I can only choose the biggest one!"

  Siss: "...?"

  The old players are looking for candidates for "passing fire", which is an old tradition of "Wasteland OL".

   As for the newcomers, most of them are still confused.

  Although pv and game cg have been released on the official website for a long time, the urban legend of "Wasteland OL" has always been a very controversial topic.

It’s easy to understand if you think about it in a different way. If any company claims to have mastered the controllable nuclear fusion technology, and then released a lot of PPT, it has shot a few videos about controllable fusion power generation, but it just doesn’t put the generator set together. Internet, it is estimated that individuals have to suspect whether it is a liar.

  The helmet only works when you put it on yourself. Others can't even see the countdown when you wear it. Therefore, even those who have obtained the qualification for the beta test are difficult to prove to others in a simple way.

   Everyone has different information, different values, and different perspectives on problems.

   But does it matter?

   is obviously not important.

  Some people doubt something, and naturally some people believe it.

   And the many players standing here at the moment, as well as the prospective players who filled out the reservation form, are all the ones who believe in it without exception.

   Even if it’s just skeptical.

   However, for them with their feet here, all doubts have vanished in an instant.

   The countdown to zero is like a key, in front of them, a whole new world is opened.

   A door is opening to them.

   looked at his hands in disbelief, and then looked at the surrounding walls, Wang Haiyang reached out his hand and tapped on the wall, the expression on his face was like dementia.

   "I didn't lie to you, did I?"

   An unfamiliar voice came from the side.

  Wang Haiyang looked back and saw a thin man with his right arm replaced by a mechanical hand standing there, looking at him with a smile.

  Wang Haiyang was stunned.

   Intuition made him recognize the identity of this person.

   "You are... Iwakaze?"

   The wind coughed lightly.

   "Don't call me this name in the game..."

  Wang Haiyang reacted immediately and touched the back of his head embarrassedly.

   "Sorry, this game is too realistic...I didn't realize it was in the game."

   said the gust of wind.

   "It's normal, everyone is at the beginning, your reaction has been relatively calm."

   Wang Haiyang wondered.

   "How did you recognize me?"

   "Habitual actions, demeanor, and various aspects, such as the action of scratching your head just now." Gu Feng thought for a while and said, "It's hard to describe this feeling in detail, maybe it's intuition, I have 7 points of perception now."

  Wang Haiyang said blankly: "Perception?"

   Wind explained patiently.

"Wasteland OL has set 5 attributes, namely strength, agility, constitution, intelligence and perception. Players' initial characters correspond to 5 sequences, but there are also a few lucky people who can choose special characters, such as the one next to me. A dumb lizard."

   Picking up trash at level 99: "Hey! You say I'm stupid! I already have 4 points of intelligence, okay?"

   Gu Feng nodded and continued to use him as a sample introduction.

   "The benchmark value of the attribute is 5, and 4 points of intelligence is equivalent to 80% of the average intelligence level of a normal adult male. This has nothing to do with IQ, it is purely the activity level of nerve cells."

   Wang Haiyang stunned: "How is this kind of thing reflected in the game?"

   "It's hard to describe," Gu Feng thought for a while and said, "Anyway, you should wait for the novice guide to finish the opening animation. By the way, by the way, what is your ID?"

   Hearing this question, Professor Wang Haiyang smiled embarrassedly and said with a dry cough.

   "That, uh... the lone wolf of the last days."

   Gale: "..."

   Level 99 Picking Up Trash: "..."

   Seeing the reaction of the two, the lone wolf brother suddenly became anxious.

   "Is there anything wrong with this name? I play other games with this name too."

   Gu Feng sighed: "It's nothing, it's quite a name with a sense of age."

   I thought it was some kind of unspeakable ID when I saw his hesitant appearance, but I didn't expect it.

   Picking up trash at level 99 also sighed.

   "Yeah... I really miss it, I remembered the past when I played Legend of Blood."

  Lone Wolf: "???"

   At this moment, Ye Shi suddenly came over.

   "To be honest, what do you have to do with Lonely Hero in the last days?"

   Lone Wolf said blankly.

"what is that?"

   "It's nothing, this friend is relatively young and often says strange things, so don't take it to heart."

   Gu Feng coughed dryly, quickly changed the subject, and watched him continue.

   "Anyway, you wait for the cutscenes. After the process is over, I will tell you some basic settings and how the game is played."

   Lone Wolf nodded excitedly.

"okay."

  …

   The flow of cutscenes is short.

   In a nutshell, we are all refuge residents who are sleeping underground, shouldering the expectations of everyone and coming to the surface to complete the great cause of reviving the People's Union.

  Standing beside Lone Wolf, Gu Feng continued.

   "The background setting of the game is more sci-fi, but in most cases, you may have to fight in primitive ways."

   "But the battles that should be fought have been finished recently. The content of the version is mainly about farming, which is when you come in handy."

   Lone Wolf was dumbfounded.

   "Damn it, am I being used as a tool since I first entered the game? In other words, how can I be of any help if I'm a newbie."

   A smile appeared on Gu Feng's face.

   "This is about the characteristics of this game. Level is not the only factor that determines strength, and the gameplay is not limited to upgrading. You can farm, do handicraft, and even develop industry."

   Lone Wolf said stunned: "Developing industry?!"

   In the game?

   Gu Feng nodded.

   "Well, this is also the most special part of this game. The design that can be realized in reality can also be realized in the game."

  Lone Wolf: "How did this happen?!"

   Gu Feng shook his head and said.

"I don't know, my understanding of this technology is no different from that of ordinary people. But according to the official website, they adopted some kind of dream interference technology and used the cognition of users to build an almost completely realistic physical system. .For example, some players know what the acceleration of gravity is, and they form a consensus on it, then the acceleration of gravity in the game is how much ... at least they claim it is."

  Lone Wolf then asked: "What if there is a dispute?"

Gufeng: "Maybe they will conduct research through consulting experts, or maybe deal with it as a black box. They don't explain much about the technical details of the game. To be honest, I am skeptical about some of the game production companies' rhetoric... A lot of careful thinking. The scary place has proved another conjecture of mine. However, unfounded suspicion is meaningless, and maybe there will be an answer after the game's public beta. "

   Lone Wolf didn't ask any more questions, and nodded.

   "Okay... Anyway, is there anything I can do?"

   Gale continued.

   "First of all, you need to get the quest to pass the torch. I will take you to level three and get the VM."

   "This game basically has a certain self-protection ability when it reaches level 3. If it is an intelligence department, it may be level 5 or more. But if you want to experience the full part of the game, you must first get a VM."

  Lone Wolf asked curiously: "What is VM?"

   Ye Shi, who was standing aside, responded quickly.

"Simply put, it's your game menu, including the character interface and so on. After you reach the citizen level, you can buy it for a little money. Now it seems to have risen to 100 silver? But it doesn't matter, and now the quest income has also risen. , it’s not too greedy, and you can afford to raise your contribution points to the citizen level!”

  What the hell?

   Do you have to spend money to buy the system interface of this game?

  Lone Wolf was stunned.

   This is too real...
