This Game is Too Real

   Chapter 369 "Methods"

   "Sell the replaced parts?"

   After listening to Lao Na's proposal on the phone, Fang Chang was stunned.

   What is this behavior in northern Myanmar? ?

   "...That's right! Anyway, if you don't sell it, you'll find a place to bury it. What a waste! Think about it, after all, it's the organ of an awakened person, and the price is three times more expensive than a normal person, right?"

   On the phone, Irena vividly described the business plan he stole from a certain newbie.

   Fang's long index finger leaning on the sofa pressed between his eyebrows and said after thinking for a while.

   "But... organ transplants also have to be considered for matching, right?"

   Irena said with a smile.

   "I know, but the game is not reality. Even the bionic organ has been made out. It can't solve the rejection reaction, right?"

  Square length: "..."

  What the hell?

  So saying...

   seems to make sense?

  He brought his real-life experience into his preconceptions.

   However, this is the game world after all, and the year 2341 is still set.

   A farther future than 2077…

   Organ matching is really not a problem?

   Resurrect once every three days.

   earns him twenty or thirty thousand silver coins at a time.

  What business can be so profitable?

The only limitation of    is that there are not enough local tyrants in the Stone City.

  The more Fang Chang thought about it, the more he felt that there was drama. He decided to chat with the black market merchant who sold his bionic prosthetic body, and immediately said on the phone.

   "I'll ask and see."

  Irena said excitedly: "Okay! I'll let them freeze the kidneys first!"

  The phone hangs up.

  Fang Chang got up from the sofa, left the Alliance office in Boulder City without a word, and went to the residential area on the edge of the industrial area.

   Familiar alley.

  The dummy hidden in the shadow of the window, as always, frightened the unlucky people who passed by accidentally, but Fang Chang was already accustomed to its tricks, and walked straight into the suspicious clinic without any reason.

   opened the curtain and came to the deepest room. Fang Chang saw the bald middle-aged doctor pacing back and forth, as if he was worried about something.

   When she saw Fang Chang, Gracie's eyes lit up, she immediately took out a different enthusiasm than before, and hurriedly greeted him.

   "You came just in time! My friend."

   Fang Chang looked at him strangely.

"What's wrong?"

   "It's nothing, just to say hello," Gracie smiled embarrassedly, glanced behind Fang Chang and asked, "What about that little girl named Duo? Why didn't you come with you?"

   "It's work time, she has her own work to do..." Looking at Gracie who obviously had something to say, Fang Chang asked bluntly, "If you have something to say, just say it."

   Seeing that someone saw through his mind, Gracie stopped going around in circles and said with a smile.

   "I have a rude request to trouble you."

   Seeing that the mission seems to be triggered, Fang Chang asked.

   "What an unkind request."

   "Didn't the company visit the northern suburbs recently? One of my big clients wants a bionic kidney produced by Ideal City, but there is no channel."

   said, Gracie's eyes lit up with eager light.

   "Can you get that thing?"

   "Ideal City's bionic prosthesis...that thing is not cheap." Fang Chang remembered taking a look at the price. One kidney cost 600,000 silver coins.

  It is totally worthless from the perspective of cost performance alone, at least 50% of which are "brand premium".

   But Gracie didn't care, still looking at him eagerly.

   "I know, but aren't you a shelter resident? You don't have an internal discount?"

   "How could there be such a thing." Fang Chang rolled his eyes.

  The discount price is okay.

Thank goodness   Dog Planning does not sell them at a price increase!

   In order to deal with the problem of numerical expansion in the mid-late game and prevent the economic gap between players from being too large, planning this kind of creature can be said to be omnipotent.

   But objectively speaking, this is not all bad.

   After all, if you don’t do these things, waiting for tens of millions of units of silver coins to pile up in everyone’s warehouse will not make the game more fun, but will only make the silver coins completely lose their meaning.

   "Okay...even if it's not cheap, you can ask for a price."

   "One million silver coins." Fang Chang said without blushing.

   "1 million?!" Gracie's eyes widened instantly, looking at him in disbelief, "Are you kidding me?"

   Expecting his reaction, Fang Chang continued.

   "Don't get excited, I'm talking about silver coins, you only need to pay me 500,000 chips."

  Gracie calmed down.

  500,000 chips...

   It is not unacceptable to think so.

   After all, a bionic liver produced by Boulder City will cost 10,000 or 20,000 chips.

  Bionic liver produced by Ideal City...

   Crossing the large wasteland to send it here, the price of 50 times is actually cheaper.

   Even if you have 1 million chips, 80% of people will be interested.

  Thinking of this, he no longer hesitated and nodded without saying a word.

"make a deal!"

   "But I have a condition, I will pay first hand and deliver it first, I will pay when I see the goods!"

   The readily agreed appearance made Fang Chang wonder if the price he offered was too cheap?

   But what he has promised, he is not good at breaking his promise.

  The big deal is that the price will be raised next time.

   "No problem. By the way, I have another proposal here, I don't know if you are interested." Fang Chang asked.

   "What proposal?" Gracie asked, looking at him.

   A smile appeared on Fangchang’s face, explaining the purpose of his trip.

   "The bionic prosthesis produced by the Ideal City is expensive, and not everyone can afford it. I still have a batch of... uh, the organs of the awakened, I wonder if you are interested?"

   "Organs of the Awakened?" Gracie was stunned, looking at the man standing in front of him with a strange expression.

   "Yes, whether it's eyes, liver, kidneys... or anything else, there are ways to get them. Although it's not as good as a bionic prosthesis, it's absolutely natural."

  Gracie sighed and interrupted Fang Chang's speech.

   "That thing can't sell for a price."

   Fang Chang frowned.

"why?"

   Gracie said succinctly.

"Although it's not difficult to solve rejection, people who can afford a bionic prosthesis simply don't think about using living parts. Humans are a sophisticated machine, but the parts in this machine don't serve efficiency. "

   "And living organs, this thing is much simpler to produce than a bionic prosthetic body. It's not troublesome to get a mentally castrated clone out of it and pick it up."

  Gracie made a surprising speech in a normal tone.

   In fact, this is not a rare thing.

  Things forbidden in Prosperity Era can be done in Wasteland Era. However, cloning itself is not a complicated technology. The slave trade and organ trafficking have long formed a mature industrial chain in Boulder City.

   Fang Chang stared blankly at this guy.

   He suddenly found out.

  This game is not just for players to punish.

  NPC is also enough punishment.

   Seeing that Fangchang did not speak, Gracie paused and continued.

   "...However, if you can get some kidneys with strong metabolism, or eyes with outstanding optical power, I can buy them, maybe some mercenaries will be interested... But the price may disappoint you."

   Fang Chang asked immediately.

   "How much can you give?"

   "Kidney words..."

   Gracie draws out two fingers.

   "2000 chips would be more reasonable."

   "2000?!" Fang Chang looked at him in surprise, his eyes suddenly alert, "Aren't you fooling me?"

  Gracie laughed.

   "Meng? Then you sell it to others and see if anyone wants it."

   For the parts of the Awakened, he is obviously not as enthusiastic as before.

   Seeing that this guy didn't seem to be lying, Fang Chang didn't say much.

   Mainly because besides this guy, he doesn't know who else accepts this stuff.

never mind.

   Mosquitoes are meat no matter how small they are.

  2000 chips can also be exchanged for 4000 silver coins, and 0 can be added to RMB at least.

  You can earn 4000 silver after three days of disconnection.

   There should be good brothers in the physique system who are willing to cooperate.

   "I will help you get the bionic liver produced in the ideal city, and the organs of the awakened ones. Prepare your chips. After a week, we will pay for it and deliver it in one hand."

   "No problem, by the way, how many Awakened parts do you have on your hands?" Gracie asked in a crisp voice.

   Fang Chang smiled lightly.

   "I have as much as you want. This will be a long-term cooperation."

  Gracie was stunned, staring at the guy in front of him with a stunned expression, his eyes were indescribably weird.

  I thought it was just one or two, so I didn’t take it seriously, but I didn’t expect how much this guy would ask for a sentence.

   And also plan to cooperate for a long time?

   Is this Awakened a leek growing out of the ground?

  Where do you get so many awakened ones? !

   "Then you prepare 20 kidneys for me first." Gracie said jokingly.

   He thought the man in front of him would be embarrassed, but he didn't expect the man in front of him to agree without a word.

"no problem."

   "Only twenty, that's easy!"

  …

   "Is this too much punishment?"

  Browsing the forum through the VM, Chu Guang had a dumbfounded expression on his face.

   Good guy.

   These people have started asking for "parts" on the forum.

   Of course, it is a part in the game.

   Transactions that violate the laws and regulations of the user's place are also prohibited from discussion on the forum.

   "Master, do you want to remove the post? (°° A small window jumped out from the top of the VM screen, and the message was sent by Xiao Qi.

  Chu Guang thought about it and replied.

   "There's no need for that."

The pamphlet he sent to the players did not make similar regulations. Although he did not approve of them doing this business, they did not seem to do anything to affect others, and people who could not distinguish between virtual and real would not be able to take it. to the test qualification.

   For players who can be resurrected, at least they won't really lose anything, and the only moral flaw is probably the lack of free donations.

   The active substance in the sanctuary is not so short for a long time, ten gnaws can provide one unit of active substance, and it will only double after level 10.

   However, although Chu Guang rarely interferes directly with the players' game progress, and focuses more on the formulation of the rules, he still takes some time to pay attention to what the players are doing.

   On the one hand, it is to satisfy one's own curiosity.

   On the one hand, it is to see if there are any loopholes in the rules, so that he can make up for the places where he can exploit the loopholes in time.

   He doesn't necessarily know what the NPCs are doing, but he knows exactly what the players are doing.

   Even if he does not pass the "backdoor" on vm and many peripherals, he can also trace relevant clues from the posts on the official website.

  Although not every player will visit the forum, few players with a strong sense of presence can resist going to the forum to "pretend".

   "Rather than dictating how they should play the game, I want to know what choices they'll make."

   reached out and turned off the screen, Chu Guang turned his eyes to the front, they had reached their destination.

   The gate of Vault 101 is right in front, and the giant gear-shaped gate is exactly the same as Vault 404.

   At this moment, next to Chu Guang were 10 soldiers of the Guards regiment.

   And Horn, the mayor of Camp 101.

   But Horn didn't take him to the gate, but took him to a tent not far from the gate, and handed a pair of glasses to him.

  The shape of these glasses is a bit like AR glasses, but the dark-colored lenses can't see through a little light.

   Chu Guang, who took the glasses, looked at him, then asked the old man named Horn.

   "Is it enough to wear these glasses?"

   Horn nodded respectfully.

   "Yes, Mr. Manager."

  Chu Guang looked at Lu Bei, who was following him every step of the way.

   "You wait for me at the door."

  Lu Bei was taken aback for a moment, the expression on his face was a little hesitant.

   "But your lord..."

   Sit down on the chair next to him, Chu Guang did not intend to explain.

"This is an order."

  Lu Bei was silent for a while, and finally gave a military salute, turned and walked out of the camp.

   followed him out of the room, and Horn glanced at the boy and said softly.

   "Don't worry, it's just a VR goggle, we can't do anything that threatens your manager's safety."

  Lu Bei did not speak.

   He also felt that these people were unlikely to do things that were not good for adults.

   He just couldn't believe that the person who had never seen his face - the manager of Vault 101.

   So did the other soldier standing next to him.

   I saw the man sullen and said in a stiff tone.

   "Better so."

   If the manager had any accident, he swore that he would settle down here.

What about    Refuge?

   Can't open the door?

   Then blow up the entire tunnel and cover it with cement!

  …

   After the door closed.

  Chu Guang fiddled with the glasses for a while, then put them on the bridge of his nose.

   Surprisingly, nothing appeared on the dark lenses.

   On the contrary, the moment he closed his eyes, the colorful ripples spread from the center of his eyebrows to the surrounding, pulling his five senses to merge with the huge information.

   was just a momentary trance, when Chu Guang opened his eyes again, he was already standing in a completely different world.

  The surrounding is full of birds and flowers, green trees are shady, people walk on the road paved with red bricks, talking and laughing.

   In the distance stood a statue, but with his back to him, he could not see the statue's face.

   This seems to be a park.

  Chu Guang stared blankly at everything in front of him, and said to himself like Meng Yi.

"……This is."

   At this time, a voice came from behind him.

   "Welcome to Vault 101."

   Hearing this sentence, Chu Guang immediately turned around and saw a strange man standing there.

   He is neither tall nor short, slightly thin, and his face is one that cannot be found in a crowd, but there is a unique affinity in his smile.

   The most special thing is those eyes, like the deep ocean, as if they have the penetrating power to see everything.

   He held the hand of a girl who was supposed to be his daughter.

   But she only inherited his pupil color, not his black shiny hair.

  Chu Guang suddenly felt that the girl looked familiar, but only a little.

   "Dad?" The girl looked up at the man next to her, and said crisply, "Is that your friend?"

   "That's right."

  The man patted the girl's hand lightly and said in a soft voice.

   "Go to your mother's place first and tell her I'll be there in a while."

The    girl nodded, let go of her father's hand sensible, turned and ran towards the crowd.

  Chu Guang frowned subconsciously as she watched her back disappear into the crowd.

   "Is it okay to let the child go alone?"

   seems to have heard something interesting, the man said with a smile.

   "Don't worry, there is no crime here."

  Chu Guang had a thoughtful expression on his face, and suddenly stomped his right foot.

  The soreness and numbness from the soles of the feet, and the immobile red bricks, everything is like the real thing.

   Yet he could still feel a slight disobedience.

   Because if it were reality, with his strength, the floor tile under his feet should have been broken.

   "Is this a virtual world?"

   An admiring smile appeared on the man's face.

   "As expected of you, I was thinking just now, you will find out in a few seconds."

   Hearing the words that seemed to have something to say, Chu Guang couldn't help raising his eyebrows.

   "You seem to know me?"

   The man nodded and said happily.

   "Hmm... I've only known you for a few seconds, but it's great to see you."

  Chu Guang didn't understand what was good.

   And the man obviously didn't explain what he meant by this sentence, he just continued to speak on his own.

   "Introduce yourself, you can call me...method, which is my most-used byline in papers, and my friends always call me that."

method?

  Chu Guang frowned, and a hint of surprise suddenly appeared in his eyes.

and many more……

Is    the "method" of the academy?

   He remembered that Yin Fang told himself a long time ago that the three founders of the academy were principles, methods, and conclusions.

   In the virtual image that was left behind, he had already seen Dr. Principle. In my impression, the man was an optimistic idealist, and then went to the northern part of the Vale Province to participate in the formation of the post-war reconstruction committee...

   Good guy.

   He has not been to the Wandering Swamp, but he has met the founders of the two academies.

   But what Chu Guang couldn't understand the most was...

   "Why is the founder of the Academy here?"

   "Academy... It's such a nostalgic name."

   Those azure blue pupils seemed to be lost in memories of the past, but they were soon drowned in a faint smile.

   "However, I'm not that great. I didn't start the academy, it existed in the distant prosperous era, and I just gave a little time to help my friends rebuild it in the new world."

   "As for why I'm here..."

  Doctor Method paused for a moment, as if thinking about how to answer.

   "This question is a bit odd, but I can feel what you're asking. Simply put, not all of the Vaults were activated during the Three Years War, and some started after the war ended."

  Chu Guang said thoughtfully.

   "So...you came here after starting the academy?"

   "Forget it, but that was a long time ago. If you don't say it, I'll almost forget it."

   Having said this, the man put on a pleasant tone.

   "Thank you very much for taking time out of your busy schedule to satisfy the curiosity of an insignificant person like me. My confusion has already been answered the moment I saw you."

   "My VM has been given to Horn, he will give it to you later."

  Chu Guang looked at him silently, and suddenly said.

   "I am the exact opposite of you. After seeing you, I am more confused."

   Doctor Method smiled gently and said in a polite tone.

   "It's my honor to be able to answer your questions. You can ask me if you have any questions."

  Chu Guang smiled.

   "Really? Then there are too many things I want to ask, like... Who is our enemy?"

   He has been thinking about this question for more than a year, and has been confused since he first woke up.

   "An enemy..." Doctor Method thought about this question for a while, "Two centuries ago, we did have some conflicts with our compatriots in Nanmen Er, but I don't think they are our enemies."

   Sure enough.

  Chu Guang's eyes showed a clear expression.

  The books collected from Vault 117 mentioned the method of "spacecraft transitioning between massive celestial bodies". Obviously, the People's Association of Prosperity Era has mastered the technology related to the FTL engine.

   The mental interference technology preserved in Vault 117 also comes from the communication with the colony.

   All signs show that as early as the Prosperity Era, the Human League has already moved to the world outside the solar system, and at least one colony has been completed.

   Dr. Method's words corroborated some of the conjectures in his heart.

   What he didn't expect was that this war actually broke out between the parent star and the colony?

   He also thought that it would involve extraterrestrial civilization or something, such as the over-expansion that caused the alert of the "fallen empire".

   However, what surprised Chu Guang the most was not these things, but the reaction of the man in front of him.

   Let war destroy an era.

  Chu Guang always felt that he seemed a little too calm.

   "...even if your world becomes like this?"

  Doctor Method nodded and said in a normal tone.

"Yes, the war is only the final showdown, and the seeds of contradiction and disagreement were planted a long time ago, and it makes no difference whether it germinates today or tomorrow. There are many complex reasons in it, which cannot be explained in a few words. Make it clear."

   "We have tried to stop, including my beloved mentor, many people made a lot of efforts during their lifetime."

   "However, in front of the wheel of history, the power of one or two people is too small."

   "After realizing that everything is irreversible, the only thing we can do is to save as much fire as possible when everything is irreparable, so as to leave a little hope for future generations."

   "...or rather, leave a little bit about the future."

   That voice was very soft, it was clearly in front of me, but it felt like it was floating from far away.

   Looking at his "negative" attitude, Chu Guang couldn't help but say.

   "Haven't you thought about making a little change?"

   Seemingly expecting Chu Guang to say this, Dr. Method smiled.

   "How do you know I didn't do anything?"
