This Game is Too Real Chapter 164

  Chapter 164 Towards the Wilderness!

letter:

   "My dear friend Bucky, I have to tell you good news. With the generosity of our allies, we have successfully repaired the damaged parts and will be back on the road soon!"

"I remember that the last time I wrote you a letter was half a month ago. The reason why I haven't heard from you for so long is not because I forgot about you, but because I was sent to perform a very important task. Serving as a liaison with allies... This job is critical, you can think of it as a diplomat, there will be a lot of entertainment, but it's not annoying."

"I remember you once told me that you wanted to go over that towering wall, go to the outside world, look at the mountains and lakes in the distance, look at the endless deserts and swamps, climb over the snow-capped mountains and jungles, look for Lost relics. I remember you told me that you were tired of your boring life and that you envied me so much that you could find a group of like-minded partners, let go of the world, and go deep into the wilderness occupied by chaos and barbarism."

"I mean, if that's the case...why not try it? The road is just down the road. And as I write this, we've covered thousands of kilometers and will soon be going even further. "

"If you can't find the direction, I solemnly recommend to you the partners we met in Qingquan City. They are a group of hard-working, brave, and good people with an optimistic outlook on life, living in Vault 404. They have impressive culture and every day spent with them is such a joy.”

   "That's a good place, and when you get there, you'll see why I say that."

   on the Pathfinder.

   Lying in a comfortable single room, Luo Hua, with the back of his head resting on his arms, faced the holographic window suspended in front of him, and dictated the content of the letter.

  Speaking of which, he has been away from home for over a year.

   The crowded and noisy environment that I despised before, I still miss it now in retrospect.

   "I'll write a letter to Dad later."

  Luo Hua sighed softly, and was about to click send when he suddenly remembered that he forgot to write the signature, so he swiped his index finger hanging next to the holographic window and filled the line.

   "—Your dear friend, Luo Hua."

   Two days later.

  An ordinary morning.

   There was no grand ceremony, as if it had come to a point, the steel fortress crawling in the wilderness had a steel structure like a gantry crane spread out to both sides.

   The robotic arm lowered from the ceiling is like a hand, picking up the modular production units previously deployed in the open space one by one and putting them back on the back.

  This incredible scene happened to it but it was as natural as breathing.

   stands in front of the porthole of the office.

   Looking at the production module slowly rising out of the window, a smug expression appeared on Li De's face.

   "Finally on the road again."

   He waited too long for this moment.

   "Yeah, we've been delayed here for half a month."

   Standing behind Section Chief Li, although Wang Jie expressed his approval, his mood was full of complexities.

   On the one hand, he wanted to stay here for a few more days.

   On the other hand, his pockets were almost cleaner than his face.

   In fact, he's not the only one with similar troubles, since some waterwheel driver came back with a bag of buns, their pockets seemed to be enchanted.

   Fortunately, you can't swipe your card here. A large part of their salary is directly debited to the card, otherwise they would have to take the deposit...

   If Wang Jie was just worried, then Section Chief Li, who was standing in front of him at the moment, would be a complete headache.

   In just half a month, those blue jackets actually earned a full 210,000 CR from them!

  Li De deeply reviewed his mistakes in decision-making.

When he signed the labor contract, he never thought about it, these blue jackets would come to his door to do business, and he never thought that these poor and white blue jackets actually made a lot of money from them. banknote.

   Therefore, when pricing the traded goods, Li De only referred to the most basic salary expenses. It is estimated that he will spend 2000CR per day, and he will spend at most 50,000 or 60,000 for them before departure.

   This is also impossible.

   Who would have thought that those people were engaged in value-added services, and they were also doing business, but his budget exceeded an order of magnitude.

   Those items on the list should not be sold to them at cost!

   Of course, Li De thought about it afterwards and felt that this might not be a bad thing.

  Although he has earned 210,000 CR, after a rational analysis, the trade deficit is still 0. The money that was made away, Chu Guang finally took it to him to spend.

The    banknotes made a full circle and eventually flowed back to the Trailblazer. The current financial situation of the logistics department is a good one, and the refrigerator in the cafeteria is full of steamed buns, dumplings, wontons...etc.

   If you look at it this way...

   It can't be a complete loss?

   After taking a sip of the fragrant coffee, Li De looked out the porthole and said slowly.

   "Speaking of which, they all bought something from us."

   Wang Jie replied: "Some metal hydrogen batteries and exoskeletons... The rest he has replaced with grain and crop seeds."

The    exoskeleton is easy to understand. In the absence of power armor, it is the perfect substitute.

   Just this metal hydrogen battery...

  Li De asked curiously: "What do they want metal hydrogen batteries for?"

  Wang Jie was also at a loss: "I don't know... Maybe it's an exoskeleton or a drone?"

  Li De: "..."

   They still have that technology?

   That's amazing!

   The outpost certainly doesn't have that technology, but there will always be.

   Just as the Pioneer was packing up, Chu Guang, accompanied by old Luca, was counting the "wool" in the warehouse of the operation camp.

   A total of 213420CR, minus the pension of 117000CR, is 96420CR.

What is the concept of   96,000 CR?

   Equivalent to an average day, his little players have created nearly 9000CR income for him! And at least half of them are earned through trade other than labor dispatch.

   Such an amazing surplus, let alone wool, the sheepskin is about to be smashed by his little players!

   After removing the 10000CR consumed for changing the legs of Boss Xia, there is still 203420CR left.

   This hard-won huge sum of money, but his little players paid countless sweat-even blood in exchange, Chu Guang naturally couldn't squander it at will.

   After some deliberation, Chu Guang first took out 100,000 CR and purchased 50 metal-hydrogen batteries of common types - an average of 2000CR.

   As for why you should buy a battery, the reason is very simple, this thing is the most cost-effective, and it is difficult to buy in Qingquan City.

   According to Chu Guang's research on the KV-1 exoskeleton produced by Jushicheng, the only thing that can be called black technology in the entire exoskeleton is a solid-state hydrogen battery.

   As for the mechanical structure and engineering design, although there are some remarkable points, they are not yet excellent enough to make people wonder.

   The metal hydrogen battery produced by the company has a higher energy density than the general solid-state hydrogen battery.

  This thing is a real black technology, whether it is used to make a drone or an exoskeleton, it is very reliable. Even if you buy a bunch of KV-1 directly and change the battery for it, it can greatly improve its battery life.

  The price of 2000CR is definitely cheap!

  Chu Guang estimated that in the area of ​​Qingquan City, such a good thing that can be used as a strategic reserve, it is reasonable to sell it for 4000CR or exchange it for an equivalent value.

   It cost 100,000 CR to buy the battery, leaving 103420CR left.

   After some weighing, Chu Guang took out half of it and replaced it with grain and some seeds of pre-war crops. The remaining half was used to buy 10 sets of "Miner Type I Exoskeletons" worth 5000CR.

   As for this set of exoskeletons, you can tell what it is for just by hearing the name.

   But not important.

  KV-1 is still used to move bricks. It is welded with steel bars and steel plates, which can also be used as pseudo-power armor.

   In particular, this Miner I-type exoskeleton has a much better design than the junk bought by Boulder City.

   Not to mention, the metal hydrogen battery it carries is more than a little bit stronger than the KV-1. Its excellent electronic control system and motor design not only ensure long battery life, but also provide it with stronger and more stable power output. If the magic is changed, thicker and heavier armor can theoretically be welded!

  In the enterprise, the "Miner Type I Exoskeleton" is considered to be an E-type trading product, and it is also the most advanced one that Chuguang can buy under the mechanical exoskeleton item.

   Of course, this exoskeleton is not without its shortcomings.

  The explosive power of metal hydrogen is 35 times that of conventional explosives, and the detonation speed is much higher than that of Black Sorkin. In theory, this thing only needs 1L to overturn a main battle tank. Therefore, in the later Type II and Type III, the company changed the metal hydrogen back to a slightly safer solid-state hydrogen battery, and the export control was also lowered to Class F traded goods.

   But it's interesting that even though Type II and III are safer, the best seller in the wasteland is still the original.

   Even though Werther strongly suggested to Chu Guang to buy the safer Type II, Chu Guang did not hesitate to stick to his idea.

   "With these things, I don't think I need to sell my old armor..."

   Looking at the industrial exoskeletons in the warehouse, Chu Guang couldn't help thinking. However, he only thought for less than three seconds before making a decision.

   "Forget it, let's sell it."

   "Just give the players benefits."

   After all, it is the armor used by the manager, Chu Guang decided to use the auction to determine its ownership. Only the most industrious players can have this armor engraved with honor!

  Well, when I go back, I have to get two more scratches on its front armor.

   As for the "Miner Type I Exoskeleton", Chu Guang intends to stipulate that it is required to reach a citizen level to purchase, and each account is limited to one purchase, which is automatically bound after purchase and cannot be traded to players or neutral NPCs. If you don't want it, you can only deal with it to the designated warehouse or weapon store.

   Considering that the import price is as high as 5000CR, the price of 5000 silver coins should be more reasonable.

   But at this price, his little players are afraid that they will have to save money until next year before they can afford it.

   "Let's sell it for 2000 silver coins... and we have to add a threshold, not only for citizens, but also for level 10 to buy!"

   Throwing the equipment in the warehouse to eat ashes, that is what the old leech does.

   As long as the equipment can be installed smoothly for highly active combat professional players, whether they use the equipment to move bricks, scavenge, hunt or do other things, it is the best choice for Chu Guang.

   Basically, unless it happens to be an intelligence department, life occupations are difficult to quickly upgrade in the early stage.

   One of the most typical representatives is Mosquito. Since the gene sequence is agile, and he often stays in his workshop, he rarely goes out to do tasks, and his level is only poor LV5. The tomato scrambled eggs that he entered the game with, had LV6 before the expansion, and now it is LV7, and is already a mature physique tank.

   explained to Old Luca to arrange trucks to transport some of the goods back to the outpost. Chu Guang, who walked out of the warehouse, glanced at the Pioneer who was busy packing outside the camp, and his eyes were full of reluctance.

   If only they stayed a few more days.

  Popcorn has only just become popular on the Trailblazer, and it's a shame that it hasn't sold much...

  10 minutes to deploy and one hour to finish.

   Before 8:00 in the morning, the Pioneer finally finished packing.

   However, this steel behemoth did not take everything away. For example, the action camp about 100 meters away from it was kept intact.

   Not only that, but in the period after encountering the legion, the pioneers also helped the residents of the local shelter to reinforce the operation camp for the second time.

  The current operation camp not only has a three-meter-high reinforced concrete wall, but also a five-meter-high trapezoidal gun tower at the four corners of the camp.

   In addition, there were 300 tons of cement that was not used in time, which was also left in the camp by the crew of the pioneer.

   Together with the supplies that Chu Guang bought with CR, they were placed in different warehouses.

   "...this is a little thought from us, I hope they can help you."

   Captain Lu Yang, who was wearing a power armor, walked in front of Chu Guang and the residents of the shelter, and lifted the mask of his helmet.

  Chu Guang looked at him and said solemnly.

   "Thank you, you have helped us a lot, I will remember this favor."

   To be honest, no matter in his previous life or in this life, Chu Guang rarely revealed his heart to others.

   But this sentence is absolutely true.

   always felt such a serious expression, which was rarely seen on this friend's face, but Captain Lu Yang didn't care too much and smiled heartily.

   "Don't be so polite, you have also helped us a lot. Without your help, we wouldn't have been able to get back on the road so quickly."

   paused for a moment, and that hearty smile suddenly became a little melancholy.

   "Goodbye, my friend. If all goes well, we'll see you again!"

   At that time, he will triumph with victory.

  Chu Guang nodded.

   "It will definitely be, I wish you victory and a worry-free journey."

   "Lend your auspicious words!"

   bumped his fists, and as a final goodbye, Lu Yang, who left gracefully, waved his hand and stood on the elevator leading to the steel fortress.

  This is the last one.

  The lift slowly rose, and the hatch closed heavily.

  The earth trembled gently and made a dull sound. Driven by fusion energy, the magnificent land-based fortress moved.

  The steel crawler moved forward slowly and firmly, running over the snow-covered branches and the frozen branches, and finally merged into the winter morning mist with the stalwart figure, leaving only a dozen ruts like ravines.

   This eye-shattering scene made the players standing at the gate of the action camp widen their eyes in surprise, as if their eyes were glued to the invisible fortress.

"gone?"

   "Fantastic, this fortress can really move! I'm starting to doubt the authenticity of the game's physics engine!"

   "After a rational analysis, nuclear fusion is indeed possible... Of course, the material is probably not ordinary steel, otherwise it will not be able to withstand its huge self-weight."

   "Okay, okay, don't analyze it, I want to know now, this expansion is over?"

   "Probably? Starting yesterday, the scavenging task in the northern town is gone, so you haven't paid attention to the VM."

   "Wait a minute, aren't there more than 100 African chiefs that haven't been resurrected?"

   "Hey, this operator is too stupid. If you can't fix the bug, just close the expansion!"

   "Hahahaha, one word, absolutely!"

   Hearing the chatter of the little players, Chu Guang smiled lightly.

   looked away from the fortress that had disappeared in the distance, Chu Guang stretched out his index finger and stroked the VM.

  The pre-edited server announcement was immediately sent to each player's VM and official website.

  【Full server announcement: The prosperity of the action camp has reached 100 points, and it has grown into a survivor stronghold. It is now renamed "Longevity Farm". 】

  【Full Server Announcement: The expansion of "Fortress on the Land" has been successfully completed. Players who have been locked in the login state and cannot be resurrected can now log in to the game normally. 】

  【Full Server Announcement: 100 new players have logged in to the game in Alpha 0.8, let us welcome them! 】

   (The next chapter will be updated before eleven! OCD, I'll double check.)
