This Game is Too Real

   Galaxy does not fall into a dream!

  Luo Yu remembers this guy.

   When they were in the Lost Valley, the two of them drove through Cloudfly together. They were the driver and he was the gunner.

  It's a pity that this guy was not lucky, he was beaten up on the spot, and although he was gone later, he also received a small feather out of misfortune. Thinking about it now, if he was a gunner at that time, Xiaoyu would have to be called Xiaoxing" or "Xiaohe".

   Sure enough, "Xiaoyu" sounds better.

   Both of them are solo players. Although they have added friends, they have basically never formed a team. He never thought that he would encounter this guy seven or eight hundred kilometers away from Dawn City.

   This fate is simple!

   "Do the task! What else can I do?"

   Looking at Luo Yu, who was dumbfounded, Xinghe smiled and patted the LD-47 hanging on his chest, and continued.

   "This battle is over, and I should be training and leveling. Damn, this game is too real, I haven't understood it for months."

   If it is another game, level 10 is the level of a novice village, just follow the main line in two steps.

   However, in “Wasteland OL”, although level 10 is also the level of the newbie village, it will take a month or two to get to it.

   He has never played a game so hard to level up!

   The most outrageous thing is that although the experience value and level are quantified, the growth curve is not smooth. Sometimes the kill has experience, and sometimes the kill does not.

  Although there is a guide written by Elder Fang on the official website, but the writing is also very vague, only a general sentence is mentioned that "experience gain is positively related to risk".

   In other words, the only way to quickly level up is to keep dying, but if you really die, the experience accumulated before the last save will be cleared.

  How to take into account the benefits, risks, losses, and the most efficient upgrade at the same time, there is a lot of knowledge in it, and many players in the TO and T1 echelons are still studying.

   Of course, it’s okay to ignore these nonsense at all.

   Galaxy is like that.

  Although he had the idea of ​​leveling up, he was too lazy to think about it so much, so he simply took a mission to go out to see how big the game world really is.

   "This game is really annoying in some inexplicable place," Luo Yu nodded in agreement and asked casually, "...By the way, what is your mission?"

   "There is a businessman named Zhou Nan in Dawn City. He claims that his parents and his brother's family were detained by the farmers near Hope Town, and asked me to bring some money to redeem them."

  This mission…

   sounds familiar.

   Looking at Luo Yu who was stunned for some reason, Xinghe smiled and said while frowning.

   "Guess how much the quest reward is?"

  Luoyu swallowed.

"How many?"

   It takes one hundred thousand to save a person, but a whole family... not more than one million? !

   seems to confirm his guess.

  Xinghe had a smug smile on his face, and slowly raised a finger.

  “…”

   "Ten thousand!"

  The air was quiet for a while.

  The atmosphere is subtly cold.

   Looking at Luo Yu who was unresponsive, the expression on Xinghe's face gradually changed from smug to embarrassed, and he coughed softly.

   "Are you scared? Wild NPCs do give more than official quests, but they don't have contribution points and regional prestige. It's not too exaggerated."

   "What should I say? Looking at Brother Xinghe, who was holding Zun in the wrong direction, Luo Yu subtly looked away, "Touch your head? "

   "What the **** are you touching your head?!"

   Looking at the emotional Xinghe, Luo Yu hesitated, but in the end he couldn't bear to see him being exploited by NPC, so he said in euphemism.

   "Actually... I also received a mission similar to yours, going to the Pine Cone Wood Farm to save a person."

"one person?"

   "Well," Luo Yu nodded slowly, "Probably, it looked like a hundred thousand."

   "One hundred thousand?!"

  Xinghe's eyes were all rounded, staring at him in disbelief, his expression seemed to say "fake it".

   (This chapter is not over, click on the next page to continue)

   But the truth is always so cruel.

  Luoyu suddenly thought of something and said with an "ah".

   "You took the quest directly in the tavern? Didn't you pass the mercenary guild?"

  Xinghe: "Yes, but you can't blame me. I'm on my way, and I heard on the official website that a mercenary guild was established."

I see.

   A stunned expression appeared on Luo Yu's face.

   Now the case is solved.

   "Tsk, it's no wonder you didn't take the quest through the VM. Not only is the income low, but you don't even have professional experience as a mercenary."

   "Fuck!" Xinghe almost spit out a mouthful of old blood, and broke his defense on the spot.

   Good guy.

   He thought that this task was a lot of money, but he had found a treasure, but he didn't expect to become a pure injustice.

  Looking at Brother Xinghe, who had begun to doubt his life, Luo Yu couldn't help but feel a little remorse, whether it would be better for him not to tell him the truth.

"Maybe the difficulty is different? There are more than 50,000 people in the pine cone farm. I heard that it is a closed settlement, and it is not so easy to get in. Moreover, the employer did not say about the ransom, 80% of the time he planned to let me rob people directly. Walk."

When    said this, Luo Yu suddenly thought of something.

   "Ah yes, ransom... that NPC gave you the ransom?"

  Xinghe nodded with tears in his eyes.

   "Well, five thousand dinars...one thousand one person, five in total."

There is no fixed exchange rate between    dinars and silver coins. I just heard that in the west of the Middle-earth continent, one thousand dinars can buy an ordinary adult slave with qualifications.

  In the territory of the alliance, human trafficking is prohibited, and the dinar is usually only used as a reward for mercenaries or bounty hunters, and has no actual purchasing power.

  These five thousand dinars are both the ransom and the advance deposit for the redemption of the target. He needs to bring the person back to Dawn City safely in order to get the full bounty from the employer.

  Luo Yu scratched his head.

   "I have an idea to reduce your losses."

   Galaxy asked immediately.

   "What idea?"

  Luoyu: "Isn't the ransom money yours when you rob someone directly?"

   The mercenary guild's mission can't be done like this, but private work should be ignored.

Although there is no official exchange channel for    dinars and silver coins, it should be possible to exchange some silver coins on the black market. Xinghe was stunned.

   "Ah this... is this okay?!"

  Luoyu nodded.

"I think there should be no problem, after all, the target is the slave owner, and the target is the slave whose freedom is restricted. According to the terms of the "Player's Handbook", active violence for the purpose of lifting personal restrictions is not punished. In other words , slave-owners' estates and slave-catchers are not protected by the rules of the sanctuary."

   Not just slave owners.

   There are also some NPC forces that are contrary to the values ​​of the alliance, or are classified into the chaotic evil camp, which are also unprotected.

   Such as Torch Church, Enlightenment Church, etc.

  Although the alliance does not recommend players to make trouble in other people's settlements.

   After all, an unrecognized order is actually an order, and physically eliminating one or two people will not solve any problems, but may create new troubles.

   However, the phrase "no punishment" awakened the galaxy.

   His eyes heated up at a speed visible to the naked eye, staring at Luo Yu, and grabbed his arm.

   "Good brother! Help me!"

"Help you... How can you help me?" Luo Yu stared at Xinghe with fiery eyes, suddenly thought of something, and was taken aback, "Damn, didn't you ask me to help you rob people? I'm too. There's a mission to do, or you can help you when I get back."

   Not being punished by the shelter does not mean that you will not be hated by the locals. He didn't want to have to deal with the bounty stuck in his head while doing the task.

   Seeing that the Brotherhood was wrong, Xinghe quickly explained with a smile.

   "Hey, I'm not talking about helping the kind you understand."

   "Then, what is that?"

   "You reminded me just now," Xinghe smiled gloomily and pulled Luoyu aside, (this chapter is not over, click on the next page to continue)

   continued slowly, "Since the rights and interests of slave owners are not protected by the "Player's Handbook", then... it's okay to fool around?"

   "Fuck?" Luo Yu gave him a suspicious look, "What do you want to fool?"

   There are many smart people in this wasteland.

   And this guy has just been tricked by an NPC, it is really difficult for him to optimistically think about this guy's ability to fool others.

  Xinghe continued with a smile.

   "It's simple, your exoskeleton is called K-10 Iron Wall, right?"

   "Uh, yes..."

   "I remember that this equipment is only supplied to the Boulder City Militia, not for sale... Is that right?"

   "It's not quite accurate to say that," Luo Yu corrected his statement, "Last month there were militiamen in Stone City reselling their equipment, and some of the equipment was leaked to the outside."

   For example, the suit he wore, and the clothes worn by Xiaoyu behind him were all purchased from elder brother Fang at a discount of almost 100%.

   If it wasn't for the current in-app purchase price of 15,000 silver coins, he wouldn't be able to afford that money.

   "I know." After glancing at the group of little feathers behind Luo Yu, Xinghe continued slowly, "One thing really doesn't mean much...but what if it's a group?"

   "You'd better say it straight... What the **** do you want to do."

   Looking at Luo Yu, whose eyes were gradually becoming more alert, Xinghe, who was in the dark, said with a smile.

"It's very simple, if that Zhou is my employer, becomes the guest of a certain big man in Boulder City, or simply becomes a big man himself, then the people from the militia will come and ask for someone. Do you think the slave owners here dare to say something? No words?"

   "What the hell?!" Luo Yu's eyes widened, "You guys want to pretend to be a militia member to deceive? Aren't you afraid of causing a diplomatic dispute?"

   "Don't talk nonsense, what kind of diplomacy does a small settlement have? Xinghe said quickly, "And we are saving people! Save people, you understand? "

"But-"

   Seeing that Luo Yu was still hesitating, Xinghe continued to speak quickly.

"Don't worry, brother, it's hundreds of kilometers away from the boulder city, and it's impossible to be dismantled! Just think I owe you a favor, don't you want to save people in the future? If this method works, we can follow it. Let’s use it again at Pine Conewood Farm! This time you help your brother, next time you help your brother! Let’s cover each other up, and we can take out all the hostages without spending a single ransom!”

   hiss…

   seems to make sense, right?

  Luoyu thought about it, and thought it was a good idea!

The    Alliance just took over the Boulder City, and the surrounding slave owners shivered when they saw it. Wouldn't it be easy to find a few hostages around the slave owners in the name of the Boulder City Militia?

  Do it when you think of it.

  Luoyu no longer hesitated, and immediately went to the south gate of Hope Town with Xiaoyu and all the fruit entities and Xinghe.

  Although there are barricades at the gate of the town, they only block goods and cars, and do not restrict people from entering or leaving here.

   As for the ruthless people like Luo Yu who had a lot of vicious thugs, the guards standing at the door didn't even dare to persuade them, and could only watch them leave silently.

The Hope Farm in the    quest is just south of Hope Town.

   A three-storey gun tower stands like a castle in the middle of a field of farmland, with a large concrete wall enclosing a large area, and only a muddy road leads to the town next door.

   Most of the people living in the town are free people, and the row of shacks outside the fortress is probably where the serfs lived.

   The landlord named Kong Lingkai lived inside the concrete wall, and is said to be a prominent figure in the town.

   Looking at the Maxim I and "Riding a lance" on the concrete wall, it's not hard to guess that this guy made a lot of money by doing business with the Alliance.

   The two players exchanged information along the way. While correcting the lines, they also used VM to translate some sentences that might be used.

  It doesn’t matter if the pronunciation is not standard, all the residents of the Alliance’s Refuge speak like this.

   A group of twelve people arrived at the edge of the fort.

  A fully armed guard station (this chapter is not over, click on the next page to continue)

   stood guard on the four-meter-high gatehouse, as if they had seen them from a distance.

  Xinghe was about to open his mouth to explain his intention, when the guard on the door tower called.

   "You are from the Alliance?"

Huh?

  Are the people here pretty decent?

   Seeing that the other party actually recognized them directly, Xinghe was suddenly delighted in his heart, but he did not show any expression on his face, and shouted with his chin raised.

   "Just recognize it! Let your master come out to see me!"

  According to the script he imagined, after learning that they were members of the Alliance, the guard should rush back to report the letter, and then the host here would politely invite them in to entertain them and greet them on their feet.

   However, what the two players didn't expect was that instead of the guard's face showing any fear, he sneered with his nose.

   "Oh, how much more do I know? You are the fifth trip this month! Even this big farm takes so much trouble, you really have enough time!"

   Hearing this sentence, Xinghe and Luoyu were stunned on the spot.

   "I blanch?!"

   "Anyone from the Alliance came?!"

impossible

   They go to the official website every day.

If the    Alliance had been here, they would have been the first to know about it.

   Seeing the expressions of the two of them not understanding the situation, the guard pouted in disdain.

"Before, there were people who claimed to come from the Alliance to dispose of us, and asked us to either hand over all the slaves or get out of here, we almost believed it! Our master said, and if anyone else claimed to be from the Alliance to beg for food, let us Their manager came over in person!"

  Luoyu and Xinghe looked at each other, and communicated with a dazed gaze.

   Definitely not a player...

   No need to force, I can even guess with my butt, 80% of them are wastelanders outside!

  Mom…

   These dogs are so cunning!

   Doing bad things in the name of the Alliance!

  Is this what people do? !

   glanced at the translation on the VM, Xinghe gritted his teeth, and shouted loudly towards the door in a threatening voice.

   "Are you planning to release people?"

   The guard said with a smile.

   "If you want someone, you can redeem it with money!"

   A mere twelve people, not worth his fear.

   What if you wear an exoskeleton?

  In the gun turret behind him, there were at least five Maxim machine guns, and there were fields around without cover. In fact, the twelve people were shot into a sieve in minutes.

   Seeing the guard's honest appearance, Xinghe muttered in his heart, gritted his teeth and said.

   "I have to see if people are still alive."

  The guard on the wall gave him two more glances, and he became more fearless.

   "Oh? I already have a goal... Tell me, what's that person's name?"

  Xinghe took out a note, glanced at it, and shouted.

   "Zhou Daniu!"

The name    can be said to be rubbish.

   However, the guard on the wall was stunned after hearing this, and then his expression changed.

   "Zhou Nan asked you to come?!"

  Xinghe was stunned for a while, not knowing why he reacted so much, Luo Yu next to him hurriedly gave him a hand and said in a low voice.

   "80% of your employers are businessmen raised by farmers here!"

"I know…"

   "You know what to say?!"

   "Otherwise?" Xinghe looked at him in confusion and said, "I don't say who I want to redeem, how can I redeem people."

  Luo Yu said with a laugh and tears.

   "Fuck you, you really don't understand or you don't understand, you want a hostage! Do you understand the hostage? Do you expect to spend that little money to redeem people?"

   Either you are so frightened that someone will take the initiative to hand it over, or you will directly **** someone back, and it is absolutely impossible to come to your door with a ransom.

   That is the rope around the neck.

   Even if it can be redeemed, it is definitely not something that can be done with a few thousand dinars. Depending on the size of the transaction, it will cost tens of thousands or even hundreds of thousands of silver coins.

   He was also overwhelmed by this guy's reaction.

   Logically speaking, even if this eldest brother (this chapter is not over, click on the next page to continue)

  Brother doesn't know the situation in Jinchuan Province, his employer should know something, right?

   Eighty percent of these are misunderstandings.

   For example, when he asked "How can I redeem people without money" when taking the task, the employer paid him the additional remuneration of several thousand dinars and the deposit for the task.

   This time, Xinghe finally came back to his senses.

   "Fuck!"

   Seeing that the guard hurriedly turned around to report the letter, Xinghe was in a hurry, and hurriedly translated the words on the VM, shouting towards the wall.

   "Wait, my friend, I don't know who Zhou Nan you are talking about. We are from the Jushi City Militia Corps. It's our commander who asked us to ask for someone!"

   It seems too late to say this.

   "Let your employer do it yourself!" A loud voice interrupted him, and he saw a man wearing an exoskeleton standing on the fence.

   Unlike the manager, although he wrapped himself up with high-end equipment, he didn't look like he was very capable of fighting.

   That pale old face, black and shiny with a moustache, and a pair of black eyes like a mouse.

   Behind him stood a dozen or so fully armed soldiers. Half of the guys in their hands were from Dawn City and half from Boulder City. They were good.

   is completely different from the artillery tower under his feet.

   "Tsk tsk, the wings have grown hard, it's not good to want to fly away from me and forget the book. If it wasn't for me, he would never have a chance to get out of here in this life."

   Looking at Xinghe with a stunned expression, the man smiled grimly and continued.

   "Please go back and tell your employer for me, I hate this kind of cleverness. If he uses this clumsy method to test my bottom line again, I will chop off the hands of my father and mother and his eldest brother and send it to him."

   "Of course, I am a very talkative person. If you want to redeem your family, you can pay back what you owe me with interest! I think 10 million Cr should be enough or 100 million dinars is fine."

  Luoyu glanced at Xinghe in confusion.

   "Is your employer so rich?"

  Xinghe shook his head in confusion.

   "No...probably."

   That guy looks like a businessman, and he does a lot of business, but judging from his clothes, he doesn't look like he is very rich.

   Ten million silver coins.

   That's a lot of money.

   Looking at the silent group of people under the gatehouse, Kong Lingkai turned his eyes slightly and suddenly said.

   "You are also employed by others, okay, how much did he give you?"

   "One... Twenty thousand silver coins."

  Luoyu glanced at Xinghe in surprise, only to see that the latter was righteous, his face was not red and his heart was not beating, and it seemed that he had grown a bit.

   The man standing on the gatehouse heard the number, and a happy smile appeared on his face.

   "According to my contract, he should give me dividends from the second half of last year before March this year. I think about it, it will be about one million silver coins."

   After reading the translation on the VM, Xinghe's eyes widened.

"so much?!"

"Of course, that man is very rich, and why do you think he can earn so much? It's not because I gave him the capital to do business and cheap food. Logically, all his property is mine. If you want to take off the rope around your neck for ten thousand silver coins, this guy is too naive."

  Kong Ling smiled and continued.

   "Come and make a deal, you help me tie that guy from the alliance to here, and I'll give you 200,000 silver coins!" The two of them were shocked when they heard this number.

   Good guy!

  200,000!

  This quest also has this hidden option? !

   Thinking of how much RMB can be exchanged for 200,000 silver coins, Xinghe felt that his hands were shaking, but he quickly calmed down.

   Kidnapping NPCs in the Alliance...

   I am afraid that this money is earned, and I have no chance to spend it.

   "Sorry, I can't promise you." Looking at the man upstairs, Xinghe said in a non-joking tone.

   Hearing this sentence, Luo Yu almost stopped spraying.

   "I'm off! Are you stupid? Just refused?"

   Looking at the emotional Luo Yu, (this chapter is not over, click on the next page to continue)

  Xinghe asked with a strange face.

   "What else? Saving people doesn't violate the "Player's Handbook", but the nature of kidnapping has changed."

   Seeing that this guy's head hasn't turned around yet, Luo Yu said with a hatred of iron.

   "You can't pretend to agree first, then win the trust of this guy and take the opportunity to **** people back."

  Xinghe was stunned for a moment, and the whole person was shocked.

   "What the hell?!"

   Can it still be like this?

   Looking at this upright guy, Luo Yu couldn't help covering his face, feeling ashamed that he felt that he had grown up for a moment.

   "Is this your first time playing such a high degree of freedom RPG?"

   But he doesn't seem qualified to laugh at him.

  When I first played this game, I was pretty straight-forward, and I believed whatever the NPC said.

   Looking at the two who were arguing, the man standing on the gatehouse showed a hint of disappointment, but only a little bit.

   He shrugged and said indifferently.

   "Then there's nothing to talk about."

  Xinghe quickly raised his right hand.

   "Wait a minute, I changed my mind—"

   Before he could finish his words, a bell rang suddenly from the town not far behind him, followed by a few dense gunshots and bursts of rough roaring.

   Everyone present was attracted by the sound of gunfire.

   Especially Kong Lingkai, who was standing on the gatehouse, heard the rapid bell, his face changed suddenly, and he vaguely realized something in his heart.

   At this moment, a panicked servant ran behind him, out of breath.

   "Big, my lord! In town, a call just came-"

   Before he could catch his breath, Kong Lingkai grabbed him and asked anxiously.

   "What happened?"

   "Change, mutants!" The servant's face was pale, and in the winter, his head was covered in sweat the size of soybeans, and he said tremblingly, "The mutants, kill them!"
