This Game is Too Real Chapter 218

   Chapter 218 The ninth floor of the greenhouse ruins! And the first perception-type intelligence-type awakener in the entire server!

   "Our enemies will not wait until winter is over before swaggering to our trenches."

   "They are predators, and they are best at sneak attacks. If it is soon, maybe when this snowstorm is over, their army will go to the northern suburbs of Qingquan City."

   "My judgment is... in early January, maybe even on New Year's Day."

   After reviewing the guards' recruits, Chu Guang took Liu Ding, Wrench, and Vanus back to the guard's station at Changchang Farm.

   There is a temporary bunker-style command post here, thickly covered with snow, and there is only one tunnel to enter.

   There were a hundred 100mm artillery shells in the batch of supplies seized from the looters last time.

  The total weight of these shells is 20kg, including a 3kg warhead.

   If this shot goes down, the power will probably be quite astonishing.

  Although they don't know how many howitzers they have, these shells alone are enough to make Chu Guang be vigilant.

   These predators are not easy to deal with!

At present, Vault 404 relies on the information obtained by the old buddies on the forum and the continuous exploration of 30 life professional players with chemical-related experience, which can be regarded as lighting up the production process of Hesuojin, but unfortunately the output is not high. Not very high.

   It is still too difficult to develop reliable heavy support firepower before New Year's Day. What needs to be solved is not only the barrel problem, but also many problems including ballistics, and these rely more on the experience of actual combat than theoretical knowledge.

   It might be more practical to count on the use of heavy artillery in the war with the Bone-biting tribe than to count on the unscrupulous rockets of mosquitoes.

  Wrench and Liu Ding looked at each other subconsciously, their expressions slightly dazed.

  What is New Year's Day?

   Although Vanus also didn't understand what New Year's Day was, his focus was not on such trivial matters, but on Chu Guang's prediction of the Marauder's next round of offensive.

   Staring at the paper map hanging on the wall of the temporary command post, Vanus said after thinking for a long time.

   "If it were me, I would choose to launch an offensive in mid-January."

  Chu Guang looked at him and asked.

   "Why?"

   Vanus said.

"This is out of careful consideration. The snow on the road will make it difficult for trucks to move, and the logistical pressure will be greater than expected. As the commander of the front line, I first have to assume that you have evacuated all the survivors in the northern suburbs that can be plundered in advance. settlement, and built enough fortifications to fight us to the end with the determination to fight to the death.”

   "At that time, our troops will not be able to obtain any resources locally, and can only rely on their own supplies to fight a tough battle that may be delayed for a long time."

   His gaze was locked on an abandoned urban area in the northeast, Vanus continued.

"I will first establish an operational base, deploy artillery, and then send mobile troops to harass your positions using the advantages of vehicles, direct artillery bombardment, weaken your defenses with multiple raids, and finally concentrate troops from multiple directions. Attack at the same time."

  Liuding and Wrench involuntarily held their breath.

  If those looters do this, the battle will undoubtedly be more difficult than imagined.

  Chu Guang nodded thoughtfully.

   "That sounds like a good idea."

Of course he didn't expect the Bonebiter tribe to be like the Bloodhand clan, stupidly launching a suicide charge towards his position, and then being squatted in the trenches by the players, using automatic weapons like cutting wheat harvest.

   Those goblin-like creatures are very cunning, especially now that they have acquired the tactics of the Legion - even if only a small part of it has been learned.

but……

  It's a pity that they met themselves.

   This consumption method of continuous attack may be useful to others, but it is simply a nonsense to deal with players who have one life in three days.

   He only needs to defend the new industrial area located in the abandoned city and ensure the supply of weapons and equipment. Those looters will soon experience the nightmare of being dominated by the undead.

  When necessary, he can even abandon the big factory, dismantle the production equipment into pieces, and withdraw into the endless ruins. Then the players take advantage of their individual combat power and start street battles with looters in the city.

   Noticing the not heavy expression on Chu Guang's face, Vanus raised his eyebrows slightly in surprise.

   "Looks like you already have an idea?"

   "That's right."

   "I'm a little curious, can you let me know if it's convenient?"

  Chu Guang smiled lightly.

   "It's not many days anyway, and you'll know it naturally by then."

   There are many ways he thinks of, but the situation on the battlefield is changing rapidly, and he is not sure which plan he will use in the end.

   After all, it also depends on which card the opponent plays.

  Vanus didn't ask, just shrugged.

   His identity was only a prisoner of war after all.

  If Chu Guang asked him for his opinion, he would speak his mind and provide suggestions for reference. But if Chu Guang didn't intend to let him know, in his position, he really shouldn't ask more.

   It's just that Vanus is still curious, what is this man going to do?

   The other party has a 100mm howitzer, and it is not known how many.

   In addition, the number of those looters is more than 1000, the number of vehicles is unknown, and both equipment and troops have an absolute advantage.

   They are not ordinary predators. After the two previous fights, the man in front of him is obviously clear.

   The odds of winning are actually not high.

   But his unmoved expression was really unpredictable.

   At this moment, there was a knock on the door of the temporary command post.

   After getting permission, a guard in a black coat walked in from outside the door and gave a military salute with his right fist on his chest.

"Report!"

  Chu Guang said concisely.

"Say."

   said the guard.

   "The scouts we sent to explore the north found a patrol of looters in Yuanxi Town, just north of Changchang Farm, who were suspected to be from the Bone-biting tribe!"

   After hearing the report, Chu Guang looked slightly surprised, and immediately looked at the map on the wall.

  Yuanxi Town is about 20 kilometers away from Changchang Farm, adjacent to the north side of Yumu District. It belongs to the southernmost township of Xizhou City in terms of administrative division, and is close to XC District of TS City.

   This distance cannot be considered very close, but it is definitely not far.

   However, what puzzled Chu Guang was, why did those plunderers appear in Yuanxi Town?

  According to the marching route of those looters, it is obvious that their station should be northeast of Qingquan City and south of TS City.

  Is it…

   They moved?

   Vanus staring at the map, the expression on his face gradually became solemn.

   "Lord Manager, although I don't want to say that...but I'm afraid we have to prepare for the worst."

Inside the    temporary command post, four pairs of eyes looked at him in unison.

  Chu Guang had vaguely guessed something, but did not speak, but waited for him to continue.

  Vanus paused for a moment, took a deep breath gently, and slowly let out a white breath from his mouth.

   "The troop in our due north and the looters in the southern suburbs of TS City are obviously not the same group."

   "You will probably face more than just a thousand people..."

   "But two."

  【Wartime Regulations Day 14】

  Confirmed the information on the VM, and Lao Bai wiped off the mucus sticking to the steel armguard and the cilia dropped by the moth wings.

   "The difficulty of the strategy on the B9 floor is surprisingly small."

   "After all, this is where the reactor is placed. There is no incubator, and the area is not very large." Fang Chang put away the mechanical compound bow in his hand and said casually.

  4 days ago, his level reached LV10, becoming the first agility-type awakener in the entire server.

   As Lao Bai guessed, his main attribute has increased by 5 attribute points, and the remaining 4 secondary attributes have each increased by one point.

  The agility of up to 17 points allows him to have almost three times the reaction speed of ordinary people, as well as dynamic vision.

   And the skills he acquired are also very satisfying to him - similar to the bullet time in Max Payne!

   This does not mean that he can become faster, but based on the bonus of agility attributes, he can make everything around him play in slow motion when he is highly focused.

   Maybe as long as the agility attribute is high enough, maybe one day he can see the trajectory of the bullet clearly.

   In any case, this can be regarded as a magical skill for a shooter.

   Praise for planning!

  Since the bullet time was unlocked, although the teammates didn't have any intuitive feeling, Fang Chang felt that he was invincible.

  The task has entered the final stage.

   Carefully searched for the dead corners on the B9 floor, Lao Bai used a short melee knife to clean up the devil moths that were not completely dead.

   Ye Shi, who was walking behind, saw that he had no chance to shoot, so he said in a chatty tone.

   "What do you think will be on the B10 floor?"

   Gu Feng, who was walking aside, thought about it.

   "I don't know, but what is certain is that the brood of the devil moth is there."

  Ye Ten: "Will there be a moth the size of a mutant?"

Tornado: "It's unrealistic from an evolutionary point of view, over-spec size is not suitable for arthropods to survive... At least with the oxygen content and gravity on Earth. However, this is not absolute. Wasteland is not A normal natural selection environment, let alone a game."

   Having said this, the gust of wind suddenly paused and looked up to the front.

   "But... this game is too real."

   The group stopped, and in front of them was a closed gate.

   Judging from the sign on the door that is similar to the power room on the B3 floor, from the mark on the VM map, this should be the reactor.

   Through a long and narrow transparent window, strong winds can see the cylindrical reactor located in the room.

   A working reactor that has been operating for two centuries.

   Even in-game, this is pretty incredible.

   It seems that it should not be boiling water.

   "Is this a Tokamak or a star simulator?" Ye Shi asked curiously.

   Gu Feng thought for a while and shook his head.

   "It doesn't look like... It looks unremarkable from the outside, even smaller than a nuclear fission reactor."

   And much smaller!

  Ye Ten laughed.

   "Maybe it's just that the operator simply doesn't want to edit it... I thought it would be a bit cooler."

"This design actually makes sense. After all, in the pre-war society depicted in the game's background, the prevalence of controlled nuclear fusion continues to replace fossil fuels, and in some areas even replace chemical batteries. Their understanding of energy technology is important for For us, it's like a black box, and it makes more sense to present it in a simpler way than we thought."

  Guangfeng was curious about what kind of brain hole the operator used, after all, it involved a field he was familiar with.

   However, he is a sane person, and it is impossible to risk the lives of his teammates.

   What's more, he doesn't have the ability to tear it down.

  If you want to destroy the first wall that can block the neutron rays, at least a few hundred kilograms of explosives are needed.

  This thing is not made of tofu.

   The alloy door leading to the reaction chamber is at least half a meter thick, not to mention the wall, and even the whole is part of the load-bearing structure.

   If you blow up this layer, you may not be able to scrape off a layer of skin from the reactor.

   At this moment, Gu Feng suddenly felt a slight tingling between his eyebrows, and then a burning sensation spread throughout his body, causing him to frown.

  Yeju, who was standing beside him, seemed to have the same reaction, and with an exaggerated scream, he grabbed his right arm.

   "My giao, my king's power! That boiling feeling... is coming!"

   Fang Chang glanced at him speechlessly.

   "Can you be a little more normal."

   stretched out his hand to support Ye Shi, and Lao Bai noticed the state of the gust of wind at the same time, he was slightly stunned, and his expression instantly became happy.

   "Good guy, we woke up two today!"

   The first intelligence and perception players in the entire server were born at the same time!

   All members of the Bull and Horse Squad entered the Hall of Fame!

   This achievement is simply invincible!

   Fang Chang's face was also full of excitement, but right now they were in the moth's nest, obviously not the time to be distracted and happy.

   "Exciting! Anyway, let's go back and save a file."

  It is foreseeable that the forum will be lively for a while today.

  At Fang Chang's suggestion, the Niu Ma team touched the door of the next floor, then left the greenhouse ruins and returned towards the outpost.

   escorted his teammates to the gate of the outpost. Old Bai, who was standing under the concrete wall, suddenly stopped.

   "Before I go offline, I plan to go to the industrial area, so please go back and save."

   Ye Shi asked curiously.

   "Industrial area? What are you doing there."

   Lao Bai said with a smile.

"The LD-47 has been used for a while, but I always feel that the strength of the power system cannot be used. I plan to go to the steel factory to see if I can order two pieces of equipment suitable for the power system to improve the firepower of our team. "

   Ye Shi and Gu Feng looked at each other.

   Fang Chang understood what he meant, and immediately became interested.

   "I'll go with you! Anyway, I'll be offline for a while and I won't have anything to do."

   Lao Bai smiled heartily.

   "Go, let's go!"

  New Industrial Zone.

  At the door of No. 81 Steel Plant, as soon as Lao Bai and Fang Chang entered the door, they saw Midnight Killing Chicken discussing something with Brother Toilet Suo.

   "I want a chainsaw, can I do it?"

   "You can get a hammer, where can I get you batteries?"

   In the face of Brother Toilet Suo's staring eyes, he still did not give up.

   "You can also burn oil."

   Hearing these light words, Brother Toilet Suo almost stopped spraying, and continued to question his soul.

   "Do you have a diesel engine? Do you have a diesel?"

   It would be ridiculous not to find a diesel engine all over the wasteland.

  He has been having a lot of headaches about this for the past few days.

   Midnight Killing Chicken was a little stunned, but he didn't expect it to be so troublesome, so he scratched the back of his head.

   "Then... I'd better buy an axe."

   Brother Toilet Suo looked helpless.

  A hatchet with a wooden handle is only 10 silver coins, and this is after the price increase.

   After deducting raw material and labor costs, electricity bills, etc., the profit margin is only 10%, and you will earn 1 silver coin.

   It is better to sell a few more bullets than an axe!

   "I sincerely suggest that you consider more modern equipment."

   Just when he was about to find a reason to send Brother Shaji away, he suddenly saw Lao Bai and Fang Chang at the door.

  's eyes suddenly lit up, and Brother Toilet Suo immediately dropped the chicken at midnight and greeted the two of them.

   "Hey, Brother Bai and Brother Fang, why are you here when you are free?"

   These two are big families!

   It seems that the progress of the Greenhouse Site Raiders has been pushed to the 8th underground floor recently? Or the 9th floor?

  Although the Niu Ma team has never disclosed the exact amount of the reward, it can be guessed according to the difficulty of the maze, and the reward is at least 4 digits.

   Seeing Brother Toilet Suo decisively abandoning himself, he was stunned to kill the chicken at midnight.

   Good guy.

Is    so real?

   Looking at the old acquaintance walking towards him, Lao Bai said with a hearty smile.

   "I'm going to make a piece of equipment, is there a more powerful one?"

   "Powerful...what do you mean? We have grenades here, as well as imitation Tekken rocket launchers, powerful!"

   "I'm not talking about the kind of disposable explosives, I mean," Lao Bai tried to gesture with his hands, "Is there such a gun with a larger caliber?"

  While he was talking, Lao Bai's eyes suddenly fell on the unassembled quadruple cannon in the factory building behind Brother Toilet Suo.

   Seeing this, Old Bai couldn't move his eyes away, he walked over immediately, and reached out to touch the thick and long barrel of the gun.

   "Good guy, this is 20mm right?!"

   Seeing that someone was interested in his work, Brother Toilet Suo suddenly smiled and said confidently.

   "20mm quadruple anti-aircraft gun! Three types of warheads are available, we call it the air tearer, or 'Tearer' for short!"

The name    sounds domineering enough.

  Old Bai happily continued to ask.

"How much!"

   Brother Toilet Suo was stunned for a moment, then coughed dryly.

   "That's an order from NPC... For the price, a cannon is 3000 silver, and an armor-piercing bullet is 20 silver, you can refer to it."

   "What the hell?! 3000 silver?" Old Bai's eyes widened.

   Just such a machine gun, the price is equivalent to 1.5 sets of miner I exoskeletons!

   And the price of that armor-piercing bullet is outrageous, one bullet is equivalent to 20 rounds of 7mm, and you can buy an iron fist bazooka with three rounds!

  Although they pushed the progress of 4 floors these days, and even took down the most critical B9 floor, the money they earned can't be wasted so much.

   After learning the price, Lao Bai immediately gave up the idea of ​​buying one, and was embarrassed to ask if it could be cheaper.

   Seeing the expression on Lao Bai's face, Fang Chang's heart moved slightly, he stepped forward and stared at the receiver for a while, and suddenly said.

   "Why is this machine gun so expensive?"

   At this time, another factory manager, Brother Levine, came out of the workshop next to him.

   Hearing Fang Chang's question, he answered casually.

   "It's said to be a gun, so why bother asking? The receiver in front of you costs at least 2,000 silver, not to mention the barrel and other parts in front."

   Fang Chang thoughtfully.

   "What if we need a... single-fire cannon? Without such a complicated receiver, it can even be changed to a rotary lock and manual reloading."

   Brother Toilet Suo and Brother Levine were stunned for a while.

   "Changed to a tumbler lock...bolt?"

   "Manual reload?"

   Seeing that the two of them didn't seem to understand what they meant, Fang Chang continued.

"What I just described may be a little inaccurate. In short, it is to remove the automatic mode of this machine gun and make a weapon similar to a bolt-action rifle, which can be easily held in the hand and placed on the ground— —"

   "I see what you mean, omit the buffer and the burst receiver, right?"

   Brother Levine interrupted Fang Chang's words and touched his chin with interest.

   "But that kind of gun will be very heavy, right? And the recoil is probably not small, it is estimated that a fixed tripod... Are you sure it can come in handy?"

  This thing is after all a cannon, not a gun.

  If the shock absorber and buffer device were cut off and made into a weapon that could be carried on the shoulder and fired, the shooter's shoulder would have to be abolished if only one shot was fired.

   Unless you make the length of the cannonball shorter, make it the size of that bullet.

   But in that case, the caliber of 20mm is a bit redundant, and it has to be changed to 12mm.

   However, after hearing Brother Levine's concerns, Fang Chang and Lao Bai looked at each other with meaningful smiles on their faces.

  The average person estimates that it is a bit difficult.

   But are they ordinary people?

   "Bipod and gun stock can help me install one, and the fixed tripod is not necessary."

  Old Bai tapped his fist on the welded breastplate of the exoskeleton, and a smile filled his face with a sense of security.

   "Don't worry, I can handle it!"

   The next chapter is before eleven!

   (end of this chapter)
