This Game Is Too Realistic

呲——

The hatch opens.

Climbing out of the training cabin, [Construction Site Boy and Brick] raised his head to the ceiling and roared as if he had been reborn.

"Oh my god!"

"I'm alive!"

Three days!

I couldn't get online for three whole days!

Only he himself knows how he survived these three days.

The first thing after coming out is of course to take a shower to get rid of bad luck.

He quickly put on his clothes, picked up the V placed on the cabin head and put it on, [Construction Site Boy and Brick] rushed into the bathroom at the speed of light, and came out refreshed after a while.

However, when he saw the water bill, his joy instantly turned to p.

"Gan! I've only been washing for ten minutes, why is it only 1 silver coin!?"

He clearly remembered that he got stuck and came out at the last second of 9 minutes and 59 seconds!

Just then, a large lizard emerged from the shower room next door.

Mr. Garbage glanced at him and chuckled.

"Brother, how long has it been since you were online?"

The boy and Brick at the construction site glanced at him.

"Three days! What happened?"

"Three days, no wonder you don't know. The bathing fee increased yesterday. Now it's 1 silver coin every 10 minutes, and starting from the 30th minute, it's 2 silver coins per minute."

The boy and Brick at the construction site were shocked when they heard this.

"1 silver coin in 10 minutes?! Why don't you go grab it!"

Mr. Garbage seemed to have expected this reaction, and said calmly.

"Calm down, although the bath water is more expensive, the income from the tasks has also increased in the past two days. Now you can do the tunnel cleaning task once a day, and 40 gnawers will give you 50 silver!"

The boy at the construction site and Bian looked at him with expressions of disbelief.

"50 silver?! Are you kidding me?"

Mr. Garbage laughed.

"Why are you lying to me? If you are short of money, I will take you down the tunnel. There will be a lot of monsters inside, and they will be so fun to kill!"

Inflation.

What a good thing!

You don’t need to take a shower every day, but you have to do the tasks every day!

It is not just the task benefits that are adjusted, but also the type and number of tasks.

Previously, his tunnel income for the next day was just over 50 silver, but now it has been directly increased to 100+, which has doubled!

And it’s not just him whose income is rising. Even the newbies are enjoying the joy of rising income.

Now do the task of "Zombie Exorcist" and carry the gnawers to the recycling point next to the active substance extractor. Originally, you could only earn 1 silver coin for 10 gnaws, but now you can earn 1 silver coin for 5 gnawers.

Many newbies join the team to do express delivery. If they are lucky, they can even earn 20 silver a day.

This is much more comfortable than earning ten silver coins in a hard day!

After checking the taskbar through V, the boy at the construction site and Bian finally understood the meaning of Brother Garbage's words.

The income from tasks has indeed increased a lot.

The original task with the lowest reward was copper coin settlement, but now the copper coins seem to have disappeared from the task bar. Even for the lowest-paying errand mission, the reward is more than 1 silver coin. If it is an errand mission across survivor settlements, the reward starts at 5 silver coins.

If you look at it this way...

It’s not too outrageous that the water bill has gone up a little, right?

"It's only been three days since I've been online... I feel like I've been obs for three months." Putting down v, the construction site boy and Bian sighed with emotion.

Brother Trash patted this guy on the shoulder.

"It's a closed beta test, it's normal, just get used to it!"

"I remember that yesterday, Brother Mole opened a special post to analyze the overall increase in revenue from this mission. In fact, the omen is very obvious. The second-generation currency system only revised silver coins and did not mention copper coins at all. The operator is probably planning to reduce the number of coins in the market. It is a currency in circulation, so I simply abandoned the copper coins!"

[Construction Site Boy and Brick] was confused when he heard this.

After a long time, he asked.

"It's a good thing or a bad thing."

Junk shook his head.

"I don't know, I feel mixed. It will definitely feel uncomfortable for a while if you have a lot of money in your account, but on the other hand, it will be easier to get equipment from now on, which is definitely a good thing for most players."

"Especially for the 7-bullet bullet, the price has not increased and is still 1 silver coin each! I see many people who used to be reluctant to fire continuous rounds with a fully automatic, but now they can occasionally afford the luxury."

However, this doesn't seem to have anything to do with him.

He couldn't operate an ordinary rifle at all, and it was impossible for the weapons store to design an exclusive weapon for him.

At present, among the alien sequences that have been opened, only the Rat Man does not have the debuff of [Calpus Hands and Callus Feet].

Not long after, the good brothers who were on edge and in debt came to life one after another and walked out of their respective rooms.

As soon as he saw Brother Shui come out of the room, Big Eyes immediately walked up to him with a smile and patted him on the shoulder.

"Brother Shui, where are we going to send someone off today?"

Edgestroke rolled his eyes.

"Go away, it's really unlucky. If you want to die, you can do it yourself. I need to grow up for a few days! Damn, I won't be so reckless next time. I'll burst into tears waiting on the forum."

Liability Big Eyes chuckled.

"I understand you, I dare you next time!"

Edge stroke: "Roll, roll, roll."

Although I haven't played the game in the past three days, I have been hanging on the forum to keep abreast of the latest progress of the game.

Due to the heroic fighting of him and his team members, the vanguard of the Bone Chewing Tribe had been forced to evacuate from Qingquan City.

In the past three days, there have been strong winds and heavy snow every day. In many places, the snow has even piled up from the knees to the thighs, which can bury half a person.

Due to the thick snow on the road, the transportation routes from the Changjiu Farm to and from the Yumu District have been stopped. They can only barely maintain the operation of the industrial area and the route from the outpost to the Changjiu Farm.

It is foreseeable that until the spring of next year, the people of the Bone Chewing Tribe will not continue to march south.

"By the way, does any of you know where to get the medal?"

Edge of Water opened v and took a look, and found a message in his personal mailbox.

"I read on V that it will be awarded in person by the manager in the manager's office..."

The words were just half spoken.

An announcement suddenly popped up on v.

[Server-wide announcement: The war between Shelter 404 and the predators has entered a fever pitch. In order to ensure the supply of wartime supplies, the "Wartime Management Regulations" are now activated to control some daily necessities. The situation is serious and I hope everyone can overcome it together. 】

[Duration: 60 days. 】

Everyone was stunned for a moment, with surprised expressions on their faces.

This is……

Is there going to be a new expansion pack? ?

…

Article 1 of the "Wartime Management Regulations" stipulates that green wheat and potato are classified as controlled varieties, and individual purchases are suspended and distributed uniformly by warehouses.

Article 2: The benchmark price of staple foods such as corn, wheat, rice, and flour will be raised by 200%, and the benchmark price of by-products such as cabbage and cabbage will be raised by 150%.

Article 3: Survivor settlements and temporary shelters directly under the jurisdiction of shelters will provide residents with nutrients necessary for survival, and each person can receive two servings per day.

Article 4: Residents receiving relief food are obliged to participate in labor. Including but not limited to engaging in production work, building shelters, and responding to mobilization when necessary.

Article 5,…

There are a total of eighteen wartime management regulations, one-third of which are mainly related to players, and the rest are mainly aimed at refugees.

This includes arranging for them to build houses, make fuel, and work in factories.

With enough to eat and fuel to keep warm, the refugees' emotions are relatively stable.

The players, on the other hand, were even less affected.

Many players even regard "Wartime Regulations" as the third expansion pack in the game - as a continuation of Wasteland OL's first expansion pack "Winter is Coming".

forum.

Gossip discussion forum.

Just after the peak offline period, the topic of "Wartime Regulations" became lively.

Ye Shi: "Will any class representatives come out to explain it? What is A Guang planning? (Funny)"

Irena: "I'll help you with the Aite class representative @The day is long @The mole is running away in the canyon. (Funny)"

The fugitive mole in the canyon: "What's the use of me, Aite? Aite, Aguang. (Squinting)"

Fang Chang: "e... At present, the answer to the version should be professional players, but the ones who have been cut off the most are also professional players. Whoever can figure out how to feed the most people with the least food will probably get the version His favor, I just made a wild guess."

Scrambled eggs with tomatoes: "Why don't we make fried noodles? If you don't care about the taste, that stuff can keep you full and the ingredients are simple."

The knife leaves people alone: ​​"Treating the symptoms but not the root cause. What is lacking is the food, not the way to eat it. I feel that we should develop more ingredients!"

Lao Bai: "For example?"

Irena: "How is Xiaoqiang? (Funny)"

Elf King Fugui: "Damn it, I, you have such a strong taste! (Horrified)"

Lao Bai: "+1, even in the game, I will never eat that thing!"

Drum hair washing machine: "Where's the mouse? Sanzhi'er is famous in our place. (Funny)"

Forcible: "Shivering."

Tails: "How about we eat the meat! (｀?w?′)"

Roshan Big Momo: "No! Although my genetic sequence is of a different species, I am also a human being! (Horrified)"

Kill the chicken at midnight: "Bear's paw! (ˉ﹃ˉ)"

Roushan giant steamed bun: "qaq"

…

Near the new industrial zone.

In front of an abandoned department store.

Untreated wood was piled in the open space, forming a pyramid shape. The refugees kept walking around the wood piles, busy working non-stop.

Some people carried axes and split large logs into small pieces of firewood. Others saw them into wooden boards and carried them into abandoned department stores to repair damaged walls and seal leaky doors and windows.

The ventilation condition of the underground garage was worse than expected. After they came here, they discovered that there was no room for so many people inside. The refugees who were transferred here could only live temporarily on the first floor of the department store.

Fortunately, the people at the shelter promptly sent them a batch of wood and some bricks for the stove by truck.

Thanks to the wood and bricks, it really helped them!

Brick stoves and smoke vents allowed them to move the smoke away from the building, rather than risking poisoning and fire by placing burning charcoal next to their beds.

As damaged walls and windows were boarded up, the fuel consumption rate also dropped significantly.

The chef set up a big pot at the door, and the porridge was boiling in the pot.

Although the surroundings were filled with the smell of grass, the rolling bubbles still made the survivors with red noses somewhat ignited a glimmer of hope for the future life.

The manager in blue armor kept his word.

Those blue coats didn't abandon them.

Although life here is not ideal, it is at least possible to survive.

As long as you can survive, there is hope!

…

So far, it has taken three days in total.

The survivors from the five survivor strongholds including Chaowei Battery Factory, Dongliu Camp, and Highway Town have all completed their transfers.

A vacuum zone has formed on the outermost edge of the northern suburbs of Qingquan City. Next time those looters come again, they may only find some useless garbage nearby.

The plan to strengthen the wall and clear the country has taken initial shape!

However, due to the heavy snowfall in recent days and the shortage of food, fuel and other supplies, the second and third batches of relocation plans had to be suspended.

Chu Guang made a promise to the seven remaining settlements of survivors.

If they are attacked, reinforcements from the shelter will arrive within half an hour. They only need to hold on for half an hour, and the rest can be left to the soldiers in the shelter.

But to be honest, the possibility of being attacked by this kind of ghost weather is smaller than being frozen to death.

Even on the ten-kilometer long road from the outpost to the long-term farm, the road has been repaired and there are no obvious potholes. The trucks passing here will occasionally break down once or twice, let alone marching in the wilderness.

With the bumpy roads in the wasteland, it was feared that the large troops would not be able to walk a few kilometers and would be trapped in the snow waiting to die.

What's more, the Bone Chewing Tribe is located further north, and the situation they face at this moment will not be easier than them. The temperature in the northern suburbs is far above minus 10 degrees Celsius, and may reach 20 or 30 degrees.

Even if they eat people.

The meat also needs to be cooked…

This year's winter is not only stronger than previous years, it can only be described as tragic.

Chu Guang went to Beit Street before. While inspecting the situation there, he chatted with old Charlie for a while.

Old Charlie said at the time that he had been living here for several years.

And a situation as bad as this year has only occurred twice in his memory...

…

The second day after the implementation of the Wartime Regulations.

Although the suddenly tight food supply made life a little worse than before, it did not have an unbearable impact on the players' gaming experience.

The two varieties that are restricted from purchase are mainly green wheat and potato, while rice, potatoes, wheat, corn and various flours are not included in the purchase restrictions.

And with the players' income, they can afford the latter.

However, the doubling of the base selling price still makes many professional players who set up stalls feel a lot of pressure.

The market at the north gate.

It's time for dinner.

The players sitting in front of Zhang Hai's ramen stall shouted out one after another.

"Boss Zhang, why has the price of your noodles increased again?"

"That's right! Even if the meat is cut thinner than paper, a bowl of plain noodles only costs 2 silver coins!"

"It's twice as expensive! It's too much!"

Tired of the shouting, Zhang Hai banged the large pot of noodles with a spoon and said impatiently.

"Why are you arguing? Go ask the flour seller in the warehouse! One kilogram of cornmeal is sold for 5 silver coins! Is it too much for me to charge you 2 silver coins for 2 sides? Huh?"

Call again.

It will be sold for three silver coins tomorrow!

However, what Zhang Hai didn't expect was that the diners sitting in front of the stall didn't buy it and continued to yell.

"Gan! I was just wondering why there are so few noodles here. It turned out to be only two taels!"

"I can't say it's too much, this is too much!"

"Where is the Market Supervision Bureau? I want to call the police. There is a shady businessman here who is cutting corners!"

Zhang Hai: "@#%!"

Mommy’s skin!

I will sell a bowl for three silver coins tomorrow!

It’s not just ramen sellers that have increased their prices, but also those selling barbecue and steamed buns.

Only then did the players miss Boss Crow's mushrooms.

That bowl of mushroom soup worth one silver coin is simply a glimmer of hope in the cold winter.

I thought it was expensive before, but now I think it’s really cheap.

When Mushroom Beach resumes business in the coming spring, I hope Boss Crow can keep some good memories for them, but don’t increase the price...

Walking in the market at the north entrance, Chu Guang was thinking about what to eat tonight while listening to the voices of the players.

Being aware of people's sentiments is part of a manager's job.

After all, it is easy to fall into the misunderstanding of a "map strategist" if you only look at one report.

Overall, the impact of this round of price increases is still controllable, and the effects have met Chu Guang's expectations.

The average daily income of players has increased by 50% to 100%, the prices of daily necessities such as food and clothing have increased by 100% to 150%, and the prices of industrial products such as weapons and bullets have remained unchanged. An unchanged price is equivalent to a price reduction.

In one sentence, professional players in life are not weakened, but professional players in combat are strengthened at an epic level!

At present, the only products in the entire market that have not increased in price are probably the milk bought by nomads and some dried meat made from game animals.

The herdsmen of the Frostspear tribe brought with them the art of making dried meat from afar, and the dried meat they produced has a unique flavor. Because it is easy to carry and cheap, it is very popular among players who have jungle needs. Although the taste is a little inferior, it is very cost-effective as dry food.

After all, green wheat is now a "regulated product" and green wheat cakes have disappeared from the market.

Unable to eat cakes, the little players can only use dried meat as dry food.

Walking next to Chu Guang, Xia Yan whispered.

"Is it my imagination? Why do I feel like my salary is becoming less and less affordable?"

Today's dinner actually cost her 7 silver coins!

This was the first time that she had a sense of crisis that her salary was not enough.

Chu Guang didn't feel much and replied in a relaxed tone.

"Think about it from another perspective. If players buy more guns from you, your performance will also increase. Soon you will find that your salary is more than double what it was before."

Xia Yan: "But a gun can be used for a long time, right? It's impossible for your players to buy guns every day."

Chu Guang said patiently.

"You can't think like this. When you buy a gun, you have to buy bullets, right? Now that you have a gun, you have to upgrade it to some accessories, right? Sights, body armor, helmets, frag grenades, more durable backpacks, bandages, etc... these are all It costs money.”

In the past, the productivity of the shelter was insufficient, so Chu Guang had to be cautious when setting up mission rewards to avoid overflowing the player's deposit data.

Now, the productivity of the shelter has reached a new stage. Chu Guang needs players to consume and buy the weapons and armor produced by the factory, so that the factory can expand production and further reduce costs.

Only by repeating this process can a virtuous cycle of balanced supply and demand be formed.

Looking at the confused Xia Yan, Chu Guang smiled faintly.

"Forget it if you can't figure it out, these things are too difficult for you."

Xia Yan glanced at Chu Guang and said with awareness.

"Why do I feel like you are laughing at me?"

Of course Chu Guang would not admit it and replied casually.

"I never said that."

After wandering around the market, Chu Guang finally bought three meat buns, and by the way, he went to Sister Qiucao Qiuye's stall to buy two bottles of milk for today's dinner.

The weather is too cold and I have no appetite.

Besides, everyone is scrimping on food and clothing, and as a manager, he is not good at extravagance and waste.

Walking towards the sanatorium.

Just when Chu Guang walked to the door, he saw Yin Fangzheng coming out of the elevator.

He was holding a small metal gadget in his hand. It looked about the size of a basketball. It had a square head and a square head. It was shaped like a small octopus and had a chassis.

After taking a bite of the bun, Chu Guang looked at him curiously and asked.

"What's that in your hand?"

Seeing Chu Guang, Yin Fang's eyes lit up and he said excitedly.

"A quadruped robot based on neural connection technology! Remember the black box you picked up from Vault 117 before? Based on the neural connection device generated by it, I slightly modified it using v and some other parts, and then there was This thing. Isn’t it amazing? I made it myself!”

Damn it?

So strong?

Not even bothering to eat dinner, Chu Guang looked at the things in his hands and immediately asked.

“How to use this thing??”

"It's very simple! Just put on the special connection device... I just want to test its performance!"

With that said, Yin Fang took out a thumb-sized wireless earphone from his pocket, threw it into Chu Guang's hand, and said with joy.

"You'll know after you put it on and try it on!"
