This Game is Too Real

  Chapter 666 The port of the players

  The junction of the southern waters and the Baiyue Strait.

  The tumbling waves make a rustling sound, and the blue waves are vast, a peaceful and peaceful scene.

  However, the survivors living in this area are well aware that under the seemingly peaceful and pleasant scenery, there are turbulent undercurrents hidden.

  The Haiya Province in the northeast is currently plagued by plague, and the southern sea area in the east is not stopping.

  The war between the Federation of the Southern Islands and Vault 70 has lasted for more than two months.

  The former's underwater forces occupied the seabed settlement of No. 70 Vault and controlled the entrance of No. 70 Vault.

  However, that shelter is a permanent bunker that can withstand nuclear explosions after all. Even the fall of the Tianting space station failed to take it away, let alone the Southern Islands Federation that still uses picric acid as a mine.

  For the turtle-like shelter, the Navy of the Federation of Southern Islands had nothing to do but block the entrance.

However, although they lost control of the main entrance and exit, the residents of Vault 70 did not surrender. Instead, they fought a guerrilla attack with the Federation of Southern Islands by relying on advanced diving equipment, waiting for an opportunity to attack the Federation's fishing boats, cargo ships, Patrol boats and even offshore mining stations rob supplies while weakening the Federation's sea power.

  The two sides have been at a stalemate for a full month, and no one can do anything to the other, and it is foreseeable that the stalemate will continue...

  As usual, the patrol speedboat of the Federation of Southern Islands sailed to the east exit of the Baiyue Strait, searching for the submersibles in the No. 70 shelter, and preventing them from going to the survivor settlements and ports along the coast of Borneo Province to obtain supplies.

   Mu Da stood at the bow of the ship with an assault rifle on his back, took out his binoculars and glanced in the west direction, but found no shadow of the ship, so he waved to the driver in the cabin.

   "Drive further!"

   "Okay!" The driver with bare arms responded, and skillfully shifted to the forward gear.

  Feeling the hot wind blowing from the sea, Mu Da cast his eyes on the densely vegetated rainforest on the shore, and narrowed his eyes slightly.

   I heard that two centuries ago, there was a steel jungle there. Rows of 100-meter-long cargo ships are connected together in front of the concrete port, and densely packed containers are displayed on the port, just like the rows of towering gantry cranes, as far as the eye can see.

   It's not exactly what I heard.

  He had seen that image on some posters and pamphlets left over from the pre-war era.

   Except he didn't believe it was true.

  If that era was really so prosperous, why did they flee from the shore to that lonely island?

  Isn’t it good to just live there?

  However, at this moment, the voices of teammates came from the communication channel.

   "There is a situation in the direction of our true north!"

   True North?

  Mu Da was taken aback for a moment, because what he was looking at was the true north, where there was nothing but dense forests and some fragmented concrete wreckage.

   At this moment, a shadow suddenly covered the dense jungle. He subconsciously looked up at the sky, and his pupils shrank instantly.

   I saw a huge object drilled out of the clouds and descended. Its color is similar to that of the thin clouds, but it looks out of place in the blue sky.

   "...airship?!"

   Before the sailors on the speedboat had time to be surprised, they saw a string of black spots falling from the airship and opened the parachute in midair.

  Seeing clearly what was hanging on the parachute, Mu Da's expression changed slightly, he grabbed the walkie-talkie and shouted into the communication channel.

   "Stay away from the shore!"

   Facts have proved that his judgment is correct.

   At the same time as the two speedboats sailed away from the shore, the parachutes approached the edge of the jungle, and then suddenly exploded into **** of flames.

  The flames falling from the sky were like a sudden rain of fire, turning the rainforest on the shore into a burning sea of ​​fire.

  The mutated apes with fangs howled and fled to the depths of the jungle. The mutated lizards and crocodiles lying near the remains of the abandoned drainage pipes roared mournfully and turned into ashes in the burning flames.

  The flame is still burning...

  Feeling the hot wind blowing from the shore, a group of federal sailors standing on the speedboat stared dumbfounded at what happened in an instant.

   In just ten minutes, the lush jungle coastline has been cleared out of a clearing covered with charcoal and dead wood.

   "Is that a Molotov cocktail?"

"what happened…"

  Mu Da stared blankly in that direction, not knowing how to deal with the situation in front of him.

  The machine gunner standing on the roof of the cabin nervously raised the heavy machine gun with the gun mantlet welded on it, and guarded towards the sky, but he didn't have the confidence to threaten the airship at all.

   At the same time, the voice of the captain of another speedboat came from the communication channel.

   "Damn... what's up with those guys?! Church people?"

   Mu Da swallowed hard.

   "It's not like..."

   At the same time as his voice fell, another string of black spots with parachutes hanging on them fell at a faster speed towards the coast where the flames had not been completely extinguished.

  There was no explosion this time.

  The black shadows hit the dark coastline, splashing billows of dust.

  Mu Da subconsciously took out the binoculars, looked in the direction of the coastline, and soon saw a scene he would never forget.

  I saw a black exoskeleton stepping out of the dust.

  Dense steel and polymer materials covered every inch of their skin, a streamlined assault rifle was held in their hands, and the jet-black eyepieces completely covered the expressions on their faces.

  Mu Da had never seen the excellent land combat equipment, and he couldn't help guessing the identities of these people and the purpose of coming here.

  While he was watching the group of people on the shore, the group of people on the shore also noticed them floating away from the shore.

   Raising his fist to signal the team members to be alert, the murderous dagger walked to the shore and tapped his index finger on the helmet.

  "An unidentified NPC was found at sea, requesting instructions."

   After waiting for a while, elder brother Fang's voice came from the communication channel.

   "...didn't accidentally hurt them just now?"

  Taking out the binoculars and looking at the sea, the murderous dagger said with a smile.

   "Probably not, but it seems that they were taken aback. The two machine guns on the speedboat are aimed at you."

  The kind of small water pipe no more than 20mm, trying to dry their airship is tantamount to dreaming. It was precisely because of this that he didn't take that little threat to heart at all.

   Standing in the bridge of the airship, Fang Chang obviously noticed the situation on the sea, but he didn't say much.

   "I see, leave them alone and continue with the mission."

"receive."

   Reached out and tapped the side of the helmet, Killer Dagger hung up the communication.

  Looking at the two speedboats on the sea for the last time, he looked away from there and beckoned his brothers to move on towards the edge of the rainforest...

  …

  The first thirty players deployed on the coast to take the lead are brothers of the Burning Legion.

  Their task is to establish a temporary beachhead on the coastline with the support of air-dropped incendiary bombs, while suppressing the nearby alien species, and ensuring the smooth deployment of materials and machines on the airship.

  After confirming the safety of the area near the landing site, the leader of the team, Killer Dagger, reported the situation on the ground to Chief Fang.

  After the airship stopped, the ropes and pods were lowered, and wave after wave of players carrying large and small bags arrived on the surface along with the construction materials.

  Compared with the exoskeleton-wearing players of the Burning Corps, these guys have a completely different style of painting.

  The twittering looks don't look like survivors in the wasteland, but more like a group of free-range ducks and noisy tourists.

"ocean!"

   "The dog plan is awesome!"

   "Hahahaha, I saw the sea in the game!" A player rushed to the edge of the beach, excited like a two-hundred-pound child.

  Some people plunged into the sea excitedly, as if they wanted to verify whether the sea water was a texture or a real model.

   No surprises.

  The beach in "Wasteland OL" is as realistic as it is in reality, except for the crabs that can tear off people's noses and all kinds of strange species.

   Less than an hour after the first wave of players landed, the first casualty had already occurred. An intelligence-based player was dragged into the sea by a mutated sea snake with thick calves wrapped around his ankle.

  However, this did not affect the enthusiasm of the players for the new map.

   Clutching his nose that was missing a piece of flesh, a certain player who had played the game for less than three months yelled excitedly.

   "Damn it! This light! This water! It's just blown up!"

  Looking at the noisy beach and the newcomers mingling with the alien species, the Elf King Fugui said with emotion.

   "Sometimes I am very envious of these cute newcomers. Now I am not very surprised to see the new map."

  In fact, strictly speaking, it is not considered new if the sequence level can reach LV10.

  It’s just that compared to the old players who have been surfing the wasteland in the A test, these players who have not passed the excitement are really no different from the newcomers.

  Irena gave Brother Fugui a funny look.

   "It means that you have almost adapted to this cruel wasteland."

   "Haha, maybe!"

  Spirit King Fugui smiled and took off the mechanical compound bow hanging next to the backpack, and turned his gaze to the rainforest where the flames were gradually extinguishing.

   "Let's go, we should also set off."

   "OK."

  Looking at Brother Fugui who was ready, Irena skillfully loaded the assault rifle in her hand, and added with a smile.

   "Let's do the task of finding the water source first, and prepare the ingredients for dinner by the way."

  Hearing the second half of Lao Na's words, Brother Fugui, who was originally high in morale, shivered subconsciously, and couldn't help praying silently in his heart.

  Hopefully don't run into weird stuff for a while...

  …

  As the excitement of unlocking the new map has passed, these players who have just set foot on the new map have gradually calmed down and devoted themselves to the construction of the camp.

  Some people are responsible for cleaning up the dead branches and coke on the ground, some people are responsible for sorting out the living materials and building materials unloaded from the airship, and some people are responsible for setting up tents and building simple fortifications.

  Of course, these tasks are not for nothing. Each job has a corresponding task, and you can get silver coins as rewards when you complete the task.

   It was the same as when the Linghu outpost was first established.

   The player who received the silver coins from the manager back then has now become the one who edits tasks and distributes task rewards to other players.

   In addition to life professional players, combat professional players are not idle.

  Not long after the airship came to a stop, the Niuma Group issued an exploration mission to search for water sources, and rewards ranging from 50 to 1,000 silver coins for finding safe and reliable fresh water sources.

   Not just looking for water sources, there are corresponding rewards for finding nests of dangerous alien species.

   And if you can get rid of the alien lair, the rewards will start at four figures!

   Opportunities abound, as depicted in the poster at the Dawn City Airship Inflatable Station box office! There are silver coins everywhere!

  As long as you work hard, at least you can earn back the air ticket money!

   While the players on the shore were busy, the federal sailors on the two speedboats were dumbfounded.

  Especially Mudar, who serves as the coast guard officer.

  The series of confusing behaviors of these people made him unable to make up his mind for a while, what these guys were planning to do.

   After pondering for a moment, he ordered in the communication channel.

"Fleet No. 1, you return to the port of the circular island, and inform the person in charge of the situation here... It is said that an airship has arrived in the eastern area of ​​the Baiyue Strait, and about two or three hundred people have disembarked. We cannot determine their identities and motives. .”

   A response came quickly from the communication channel.

"receive!"

   After a pause, Mu Da continued to give orders.

   "Ship No. 2, come with me."

  The pilot standing in the captain's cabin responded.

"yes!"

  The two speedboats split into two groups, one headed east, and the other leaned against the shallow water area on the shore, and three people came down.

  The players on the bank quickly noticed the existence of this group of people, and cast curious glances at the three NPCs.

  Received Fang Chang's order, the murderous dagger wearing a pitch-black exoskeleton took another teammate and walked towards the three of them.

   "Who are you?"

  Looking at the soldier approaching, Mu Da replied cautiously.

   "Federation, how about you?"

   "Alliance!" Unlocking the mask of the helmet, the murderous dagger said with a hearty smile, "Our names are quite similar."

  Hearing about the alliance, Mu Da was slightly taken aback.

  He had heard of this name from a merchant in Silver Moon Bay. It was said that it was a survivor force rising in the southern part of the River Valley Province, which was at least two to three thousand kilometers away.

  What are these guys doing here?

   Just when he was confused, Killer Dagger smiled and continued.

   "By the way, we have to stay here for a while, shouldn't it affect you?"

   The two sailors standing behind Mu Da looked at each other and exchanged strange eyes.

  Stay in this **** place for a while?

  Are these guys crazy?

  Like the two subordinates behind him, Mu Da was also overwhelmed by the soldier's answer in front of him, and didn't speak for a long time.

  Baiyue Province is a land without owner, and so is this beach. Although the federal speedboats often patrol this sea area, this is indeed not the territory of the federation, and the residents of the island generally will not approach this dangerous area.

   At least he has never heard of it. The Federation has plans to build new facilities on this land.

   Glancing at the weapons in these people's hands, Mu Da spoke slowly.

   "I have no problem, you can stay as long as you want, as long as it doesn't hinder our work... But don't blame me for not reminding you, the alien species here is very dangerous, even if you have decent equipment, camping here is definitely not a good idea."

  The murderous dagger showed a happy smile again.

   "Great! I hope we can get along well! By the way, where is your settlement? Or where is the nearest port? If it is convenient, I can trade some supplies with you."

  Mu Da raised his arm subtly with an expression on his face, and pointed in the direction of the sea area of ​​Guidance Department.

"over there…"

   "Over there?" The murderous dagger glanced in the direction he pointed with interest, "Where is it? Why can't I see it?"

   "...Of course you can't see it here, and you have to go southeast for about a hundred nautical miles." Looking at this not-so-intelligent guy, Mu Da said speechlessly.

  The murderous dagger smiled shyly.

   "That's really far enough."

   "We welcome you to come to our port to do business. If you catch some game, you can sell it to us, but don't drive that thing to us, don't even think about it, if you don't want to get yourself into trouble."

   Not wanting to stay in this dangerous place for a second, Mu Da pointed to the inflatable airship floating in the sky, and threw down a word of warning to end the brief greeting in a hurry.

   "That's all I have to say, we gotta go, have fun here... hope I see you again in a few days."

   "Sure it will!"

  Taking that sentence as a blessing, Killer Dagger smiled heartily, and waved towards the three NPCs who returned to the speedboat.

   "Bon voyage! Come and play when you have time!"

  Looking at the man on the shore waving goodbye to them, Mu Da smiled in his heart.

   I hope you can still laugh in a few days...
