This Game is Too Real

  Chapter 366 Beta0.3 version update!

   Controllable fusion fuel rods!

   And it was made by Zhongzhou Aerospace, which matched the size of the Refuge Reactor!

  The camp of the enterprise expedition, the temporary warehouse.

   Looking at the familiar fuel rod piled at the C position of the trophy, a surprised expression flashed across Chu Guang's face.

  I didn't expect that all such good things were obtained by them!

"...We got it from an abandoned Zhongzhou Aerospace Research Institute. We originally wanted to go in and search for supplies, but we didn't expect to find this thing." Standing next to Chu Guang, Heding, the logistics officer, smiled. said.

  Chu Guang didn't answer, but walked forward quickly, took out the data cable from his VM and connected it to the reactor.

   "Little Qi, help me see how much electricity is left inside."

   A vigorous answer came from the earphones.

"receive!"

   As a stream of data flashed across the vm screen, the remaining energy was quickly presented in a pop-up dialog.

  63%!

   Looking at this number, the surprise in Chu Guang's eyes became more and more obvious.

  In the wasteland 200 years after the end of the world, it is more difficult to find fuel rods with more than 50% energy remaining.

   What is the use of this thing?

   That is so useful!

  With fuel rods, it means that the abandoned shelter can be restarted, which means that he can open more sub-bases to prepare more novice villages for his little leeks-oh no, little players!

   "It seems that you are very satisfied with this thing." Hedin said with a smile.

  Chu Guang calmed down and pulled the data cable back calmly.

   "The energy has been depleted by 37%, but it's okay."

  Hedin was almost choked by this sentence, and when he was about to say something, the manager in front of him quickly skipped the topic.

   "Are these exoskeletons?"

   Seeing Chu Guang looking at the pile of junk behind the fuel rods, Heding coughed dryly and nodded.

   "It's... from some attackers."

  These exoskeletons are obviously broken, but they are not completely broken, they are still repairable.

  If the repair is not good, some valuable parts and advanced electronic components have also been dismantled.

   Judging from the appearance and labels, most of these exoskeletons are "bucket" and "flint".

  The former is the equipment of the Great Rift Valley, which is characterized by thick hard armor, and the latter is a lightweight imitation version of the former, designed and produced by the Flint Group of the Free State of Bugela.

   "Have you met someone from the Great Rift Valley?" A hint of surprise appeared in Chu Guang's eyes.

  Hedin shook his head.

"Their combat literacy is very poor, they are just a group of looters who happen to have the same equipment. I guess they bought these equipment from the Liberty Gang of Bugra. Isn't that the famous black market in the central region? I heard of some business. do all."

  Chu Guang had a hint of surprise in his eyes, and asked with great interest.

   "Looks like you know this well."

  Hedin said as a matter of course.

"Isn't it common sense to investigate the local situation before departure? But unfortunately, there is too little information about you. I only heard that this is a farm, so I brought some miner I exoskeletons, but I didn't see it. After reading this, I found that the actual situation was fundamentally different from what I had heard.”

"It was indeed a farm six months ago, and it's the same now. Your news is actually fine..." Looking at the things in the warehouse, Chu Guang said with admiration, "I didn't expect you to pick up so many good things along the way. ."

   This is like going to the rescue.

   is like a treasure hunt.

   "Of course, our team's load is limited, and if it's not a good thing, we won't carry it."

  Hedin sneered and continued.

"In fact, apart from these exoskeletons, the humble KV-1 is the most common... Of course, most of them are predators with iron-barreled rifles, but after seeing our equipment, they generally don't rely on them at all. Come over to waste our bullets, hide far away, and then go up to clean the battlefield after we leave."

   Chu Guang initially estimated the value of the pair of goods. Although it was not as good as the good things they brought from Ideal City, it was quite good.

  "Double Shield" should be able to repair more than 30 sets, and "Flint" can repair more than 100 sets of no problem.

   Unlike the "Miner" series, these exoskeletons themselves are designed for combat, and the target should be the "pioneers" worn by these corporate soldiers.

   As a local force that can resist the pace of legion and corporate expeditions, the equipment of the Great Rift Valley still has a lot of remarkable points, which is worth learning from.

   Taking into account the cost of restoration, Chu Guang estimated the value of these things in the warehouse at 1.5 million silver coins.

   In the store of the new alliance, the money is enough to buy 1500 tons of nutritional paste or 375 tons of corn.

   Of course, we are talking about the retail price here. If it is at the wholesale price, whether it is bought or sold is another matter.

   "Is that all there is to it?"

  Chu Guang just asked casually just in case, but he didn't expect it to happen.

   "Of course it's more than that, there's a special loot that we put in the warehouse next to it... Come with me."

   said, Heding turned and walked towards the door.

   Chu Guang rolled his eyes at his back for this kind of betrayal, but he still followed.

   The door of another warehouse opened.

   When he saw the iron lump standing in the warehouse, a look of surprise quickly appeared in Chu Guang's eyes, and it quickly turned into a surprise.

   "Fuck..."

   Power Armor!

   It turned out to be power armor!

   The alloy breastplate that protrudes outwards exudes a cold light. On the silver-gray armor shell, faded numbers and digital camouflage paint are vaguely visible.

  It has a neat crack from the left shoulder to the armpit, as if it had been slashed by something.

   And on his right shoulder, there is also a line of people printed——

  【——must lose】

  Chu Guang: ?

Shouldn't    be a sure win in normal terms?

   didn't notice the subtle change in expression on Chu Guang's face, Heding, who was standing by the side, introduced it with pride.

   "OD-10 power armor, code-named 'Dragoon'! Standard equipment of the People's Union Aerospace Forces Orbital Airborne Troops. You should be able to guess from the name, what is this thing used for."

  The power armor installed by the People's Alliance Army mainly has two categories, one is the land combat model, and the other is the air and space model.

  The former emphasizes firepower and armor, while the latter emphasizes light weight and mobility.

   After all, the latter's task is to take an airdrop capsule and quickly break through the ground firepower network from a high orbit to complete the deployment. If the size and tonnage are too large, it will be very disadvantageous.

  OD-10 "Dragons" belong to the latter.

   Compared to the solidly armored T-10 "Champion" power armor, the lightweight design makes it look less bloated.

   But even so, that thick armor is not something that ordinary light weapons can easily penetrate.

   At least it's an anti-armor shrapnel!

   After introducing the advantages, Heding slowed down his speech rate and volume, and continued.

   "But don't rush to get excited. Like those exoskeletons, this power armor is good except for the main structure, micro reactor and fusion battery. Other parts are either aging or broken-"

   "It doesn't matter, as long as the reactor is good!" Chu Guang said indifferently.

   Heding glanced at Chu Guang in surprise, but he didn't expect that he was a knowledgeable man.

   But think about it.

   After all, he is the head of the blue jacket, maybe he is an old popsicle that came over 200 years ago.

It's not surprising that    knows about power armor.

   "...Yes, the most valuable micro-reactors and fusion batteries can still be used. Repairing other places is not a problem. Including the tear, it is completely feasible to weld the steel plate."

   "Anyway, this thing is not used to single out tanks, I don't think you would do such a thing."

   Power armor is the general term for all nuclear-powered individual equipment.

   And the biggest difference between power armor and exoskeleton is the power source.

  The power source of exoskeleton is mostly chemical energy battery, while the power armor is powered by nuclear fusion battery, so it can install stronger armor and carry more powerful weapons.

   This is also the reason why it is called "a tank that can drive into alleys" and "an infantry vehicle that can climb stairs".

  So, it doesn't matter if the armor is broken, as long as the most valuable micro reactor is not broken, and the fusion battery inserted in it is fine, everything can be said!

   looks broken?

   Can that be called broken?

   That is called the traces of history!

   Make up a twisted and bizarre story and easily sell it for millions of silver coins!

  Chu Guang did not intend to use this thing himself.

   This azure blue power armor on him can better represent his status as a manager.

   In addition, the protective performance of the police power armor is not bad, and the protection against light weapons may be stronger than that of the "dragon cavalry", but the mobility and firepower are slightly worse. If he is not on the front line of the battlefield, he will not be able to use these two items.

   And the most important thing is that his power armor is almost 90% new, and he can't find even a single scratch. There is really no need to replace a second-hand battle-damaged version.

   Let’s leave it to his cute little players!

   "Where did you find this thing?" After recovering from the excitement, Chu Guang looked at Heding and asked.

   "That's a long story."

  Hedin's eyes fell into memory, and his tone was complicated or emotional.

   "When we were searching for information on the Trailblazer, we tracked down a distress message. The rescuer claimed to be a shelter resident and was captured by a group of looters. They asked him to restore this old antique that he didn't know where to pick it up."

"Of course he wouldn't fix it, but he was clever enough to fool the looters and trick them into collecting parts for 'repair power armor', then build a radio out of those parts and send the loot The coordinates of the denizens and the distress signal."

   "Generally speaking, it's useless, but who wants us to see it, we can't just watch the civilized people get thrown into the frying pan by the barbarians."

"It just so happened that we were going to pass through the shelter, and our captain planned to bring that unfortunate fellow to you. It didn't take much effort to deal with those looters with iron-barreled rifles, but... it's a pity that no one was saved, Only found this power armor."

   Speaking of this, Heding had a rather regretful expression on his face, and he clicked his tongue.

"He was hanging at the door of the raiders' lair, and he was dead for days when we found him. That guy somehow **** off the raiders, you don't want to know what happened to his body It looks like... it'll be fine if you stick to it for another two or three days, we were going to bring him here to you."

   "..." Chu Guang was dumbfounded, not sure what to say.

   But regret is for sure.

The residents of the    sanctuary are mostly highly educated, whether they are from the old popsicles from 200 years ago or the residents of the new generation.

  Hya and the residents of Vault 117 are the best examples. Each of them is an excellent "biologist" who has made a series of outstanding contributions to the research of the mutant slime mold.

   It would be a loss for all mankind to let a bunch of uncivilized savages use those people!

   Thinking that the manager in front of him was pity for his dead compatriots, Hedin did not continue on this topic, but returned to the power armor.

   "Including this power armor, as well as the spoils from before... If you are interested, I can pack and sell it to you for 1.5 million silver coins."

   Hearing this number, Chu Guang didn't have time to be pleasantly surprised, and said without thinking.

"make a deal!"

   For the goods in the warehouse before, his psychological price is also this number.

   Thinking about it this way, this power armor cost nothing!

  Is there any hesitation?

   "Don't worry," Heding smiled and said pointedly, "This is a friendship price."

   Seeing the expression on his face, Chu Guang immediately understood the meaning of this sentence, and an interesting smile appeared on his face.

   "So...how do I get your friendship?"

  Hedin glanced at the door and continued speaking in a soft voice.

“I have invested in a food processing plant in the Province of the Clouds, dedicated to providing the province and mercenaries with self-heating food and a wide variety of canned food that is easy to carry. However...not everyone can afford what we produce It would be nice if there was an instant food that was cheap, easy to cook, could be stored for a long time, and tasted good.”

   "The issue of supplies can't be sloppy, it's not only about survival, but also morale."

"Let's be honest, I'm very interested in your instant noodle biscuits. You said they can be stored for a long time, are inexpensive, and don't require preservatives, which sounds much more interesting than compressed biscuits... Including that fondue recipe, I I want to learn."

   Looking at those fiery eyes that couldn't hide it, Chu Guang was stunned for a moment, but he almost didn't laugh out loud in his heart.

  Is this an exchange of instant noodles for power armor?

   However, instead of writing a rude expression on his face, he pretended to think about it for a long time.

   "...was our friendship one-time or long-term?"

   Hearing Chu Guang's words, Heding immediately assured.

   "Of course it's long-term. You and I are not insatiable greed. Only a long-term business can continue, isn't it?"

   Hearing this sentence, a smile appeared on Chu Guang's face.

   "No problem! I'll let someone take you to our factory to observe it when it's dawn tomorrow!"

   Of course he didn't think a promise could have any weight, especially when a mercenary businessman made the promise.

   But as an excellent salesman, he can't make his customers feel that they have lost money.

   After all, whether it is instant noodles or hot pot base, it may take some time to think about it, but it is definitely not a complicated thing.

   I hope that Mr. Heding will not be too surprised when he visits the factory tomorrow...

  …

   In order to help these friends who came from afar to solve their problems, Chu Guang was busy from the morning until the sun went down, and did not take much rest all day.

   But in contrast to the effort, the harvest of this whole day is also quite gratifying.

In addition to the pre-war power armor, the exoskeleton of the Great Rift Valley, and the fuel rod with 63% remaining energy, Heding also persuaded Yunsong for him that he planned to leave 5 logistics personnel to help them build G9 assault rifle accessories and its ammunition production line.

This means that Chu Guang not only got all the spoils of the expedition from the ideal city to the river valley province, but also the spoils that Yunsong and the others obtained before returning to the ideal city will also be given priority to the new alliance for replacement. silver.

   And Chu Guang holds these loot, which can be sold to players to recover silver coins, or sold to neighbors to earn foreign exchange.

   As for the weapon and ammunition production line "aided" by the company, it is equivalent to picking it up for nothing!

   In addition, these friends who came from afar will also pay 500 silver coins per day for medical expenses for the 20 wounded.

   This fee includes regular injections of inhibitors and three meals a day.

   until they were taken home by their own people.

   10,000 silver a day, 300,000 a month, Chu Guang wished they lived here for a year.

   Although this is impossible…

   After dinner, Chu Guang returned to the shelter alone.

   Boss Xia and Xiaoyu went to school, Yin Fang was in Xizhou City, Heya stayed in the medical laboratory all day in retreat, Chu Guang glanced around at the empty browsing room, feeling strangely deserted.

   At this time, a certain ornament on the table suddenly floated a pleasant sound.

   "Master, if you feel lonely, Xiao Qi can accompany you."

  Chu Guang replied skillfully.

"OK."

  Xiaoqi: "Woooooo, so perfunctory!"

  Chu Guang: "Then... how about it?"

  Xiaoqi: "Hey, it sounds so fake, but it feels much better!"

  Chu Guang: "..."

  Although it’s a bit of an advantage, will this guy be a little too smart?

   Looking at the figurine covering his face shyly, Chu Guang resisted the urge to roll his eyes and walked to his retro laptop and sat down.

   It’s been a long time since I played the game.

   While thinking about whether to relax for a while, Chu Guang held the mouse and clicked on the forum unconsciously.

   Sure enough, in his subconscious, the "Wasteland OL" designed by himself is more fun.

  Although the alliance has entered a period of stable development after the war, he has not renovated the game for a while, but players have actively discovered a lot of fun that he had not imagined in places he did not expect.

Some players followed the caravan to the distant Jinchuan Province for adventure, and brought the scenery of the southern jungle and the basin plain back to the forum. Some players went to the Bugela Free State in the north and saw the legendary evil. City.

  Some players even fell in love with passerby NPCs.

   However, Chu Guang doubts how long they can stay together with completely different language and cultural backgrounds and even mentality.

   As for whether the secrets of the game will be revealed, Chu Guang is not worried at all.

When any player asks him this question, his answer is a generous acknowledgment - "This is undoubtedly the completely real world", and by the way reminds players to pay attention to their own words and deeds and what others say about them, implying that " "Friendship" may affect the triggering of missions.

   Interestingly, the more he emphasized it, the less he took what he said.

   After all, as long as they still need a helmet to log into the game, it is impossible to convince other people who need to wear a helmet to enter the game.

The truth that    conjectures is not important at all. It doesn’t matter whether one or two people are convinced that it is true or false.

  Like last night, today's forum is as lively as ever.

   Apart from those scattered posts, the expedition from the enterprise has become the hottest topic on the forum these two days without any suspense.

   When the Pioneer passed through Qingquan City last time, many players made a small fortune because they seized the "opportunity of history", which made those players who didn't seize the opportunity and newcomers who were late in the game envious.

   Now the people from the company are here again. Although they are not the same group of people, it does not hinder the enthusiasm of the players.

The    silver coins went into their pockets by themselves.

   This still makes them run?

  Master Wang, who sells bamboo shoots at the entrance of the village: "Mom, after opening a black shop for so long, I finally have to wait for a wave of fat sheep!"

   Construction site teenager and Brick: "Brothers, Xiaolongbao, hot pot barbecue crayfish go! (proud

  Makabazi: "Hey! I went to their camp during the day to take a look. Why do I feel that the Tianlong people who came this time are so poor!"

  Irena: "The poor also come from the East Coast, don't think that mosquitoes are not meat! (Funny

  Elf King Fugui: "I don't know why, I don't feel anything when others say this. When you say this, my stomach churns. (Funny

  Tail: "Oh! Pass it on! Lao Na is going to eat mosquitoes! Ψ(｀)Ψ"

  Tanto: ω

  WC really has mosquitoes: "This can also persecute me???"

  Yaya: "You ducks, can't you be more friendly to your friends? A little less routine, more sincerity, and you can make a fortune. (@ω｀@

   Debt and big eyes: "Are you so embarrassed! 100Cr mushroom soup!"

  Roller Shampoo Machine: "That's it! You're the blackest one!"

  Yow: "Well, that's a misunderstanding! How long do you have to remember! QAQ"

   Looking at the little players who were brainstorming and coming up with bad ideas, Chu Guang couldn't help showing an old father-like smile on his face.

   As expected of the leeks that he cultivated himself.

   Not only will he contribute his own strength when he needs it, but he will also take the initiative to help himself pick up other people's wool.

   However, you must also pay attention to the rules and regulations.

   This time, I have helped players negotiate the rules of the transaction preemptively, and stipulated the currency of the transaction.

   Players no longer have to work hard to earn foreign exchange.

   Taking advantage of the local market directly, earning the silver coins in the hands of those NPCs is the same!

  When those NPCs are short of silver coins, the captain named Yunsong will naturally take the good things brought from the east coast, or loot from looters to exchange for money in his own hands.

   There is really no money to spend, Chu Guang will introduce them to some commissions that are rich in rewards that players cannot handle temporarily, or ask them to contact their hometown to make money.

   As long as it doesn't conflict with their own missions and the risk is not too high, I believe they won't mind helping their allies.

   In this way, players earn silver coins, the company's expedition solves logistical problems, and the new alliance gets goods from the ideal city and a prosperous economy.

   This wave is of course a win-win situation!

  Thinking of this, a happy smile appeared on Chu Guang's face, he clicked the mouse twice with his index finger, and opened the folder he had created earlier.

   Lying in the folder is the update announcement for version Beta 0.3.

   Originally, after Brother Fang unlocked the black market, he planned to take this thing out directly.

   But I didn’t expect that the plan could not keep up with the changes. People from the company suddenly visited, and the original update announcement seemed a bit outdated.

   In the new version, players will have more development routes and equipment to choose from. At the same time, the forces the player belongs to will also communicate more frequently with other forces in the wasteland.

   As he once said to Luca, they were no longer a small village, or a settlement of survivors.

   but an alliance of countless survivors!

   took some time to edit, Chu Guang updated the revised announcement on the forum.

  【Beta 0.3 version update announcement: A large number of high-tech equipment and bionic prosthetics have been added! 】

[Additional equipment: "Double Shield" exoskeleton, with light weapons protection that is not inferior to the six-type "heavy cavalry" exoskeleton, designed for war, it is capable of handling most battlefield environments in the wasteland... The price is 30,000 yuan silver! 】

  ["Flint" exoskeleton, compared to the five-type "hussar" exoskeleton, is a lightweight version of the "round shield" exoskeleton, with higher maneuverability and longer battery life... The price is 15,000 silver! 】

   [Added NPC "Logistics Officer Heding": Heding from the ideal city is the logistics officer of the enterprise expedition. He has no lofty ideals and just wants to make money, so please don't waste his time. 】

  [Added NPC "Expedition Captain Yunsong": The captain of the 26th Commando of the Enterprise, a professional soldier, set off from the east coast to the western desert in order to reinforce the Pioneer. 】

  【Add NPC "...":...】

  [VM event store sells a large number of high-quality bionic prostheses and organs for a limited time, which can be traded with silver coins, and you want to buy quickly! 】

  【Note: The bionic organ from the ideal city can be sold for a price in Boulder City, whether it is a trade item or a good choice for your own use. But please pay attention to the equipment drop mechanism. If the character dies unexpectedly, please remember to ask your teammates to help you recover it, and make an appointment for surgery in time. 】

  【New Contribution Point Level: "Knight"】

  【Contribution points reach 100,000, you can upgrade from "Higher Citizen" to "Apprentice Knight". After reaching "Knight", players can buy and hold a set of power armor in the NPC shop, and the maximum land allowed to be held is increased from 500 square meters to 1000 square meters. 】

  【…】

   Looking at the content in the update announcement, Chu Guang nodded with satisfaction.

   "The Pioneer is in trouble. Maybe it has to mobilize the player corps, and the 'land reclamation' system has to be reserved for the next version..."

   "Beta0.3 will do this for now."

   This update has a lot of content.

   No one should say that they are fishing.
