This Game is Too Real Chapter 649

  Chapter 649 Let the storm be more violent!

   "Pfft—!"

   On the scientific research ship docked near the Alliance Airport, Yang Kai, leaning on the seat, read the content on the holographic screen in front of him, and almost sprayed a sip of coffee on the central control of the cockpit.

  Just a few minutes ago, he had just returned to his scientific research ship, and was about to study the several amendments proposed by the alliance manager. As a result, he received this thing as soon as he opened his personal terminal.

  At this moment, what is printed on the screen is a newspaper with a total of three pages, with the words "Qingquan City Daily" written in the headline.

   What is even more astonishing is the headline of the headline——

  《Qingquan City's brood has not fallen! He was secretly kept in captivity by the manager! "

   That thing can be raised in captivity? ? ?

   "What the **** is this?"

   Seemingly satisfied with Yang Kai's embarrassed expression, Li Ke, who was suspended in the holographic image beside him, said in a mocking tone.

   "Our intelligence officers found this newspaper in Dawn City, you just need to go to any newsstand and you can pick it up... So, what is your research department doing?"

  He is a researcher of the Department of Foreign Affairs, and his rank is B like Yang Kai's. Ever since this guy took the job of the Department of Foreign Affairs away, he was very displeased with this guy.

   And it's not the first time!

  After listening to Li Ke's words, Yang Kai's expression froze.

  He did ask the assistants of the scientific research ship to monitor the radio and TV programs of the Alliance, and screen important information from the news, but he really didn't study the newspapers.

  The main reason is that he doesn't have a fixed residence either, and the people who order newspapers don't know where to send them.

   But then again.

  What age is this, who still reads that stuff? ?

   "...This doesn't mean anything, it's just a newspaper." Not seeing the gloating expression, Yang Kai said with a straight face.

"Yes, it's just a newspaper, and the first issue of the newspaper was only released today," Li Ke continued in a sarcastic tone, "Our intelligence personnel went to Qingquan City immediately after seeing the newspaper. Eastern Suburbs confirmed the situation, and guess what we saw? Slime mold repairing the ruins there! And what did you do, strolled over to the Union Building for a meeting, and no agreement was reached—”

"It's not that I haven't reached any agreement. At least the managers of the alliance have shown their intention to work with us to study the remains of Qingquan City and the samples of the brood." Yang Kai interrupted Li Ke with a dark face, with a displeased look on his face. He continued, "And listen, the negotiations between me and the alliance have entered a critical stage, and I don't want your hasty actions to affect the outcome of the negotiations."

   Li Ke laughed and spread his hands.

"What does it matter? It's not just us who are doing this, other people are also doing it, and we're just collecting public information...However, it's disappointing that you haven't even done these basic tasks well, you should Don't you think that things like information will be delivered to your door by yourself if you are sitting in a scientific research ship and waiting?”

  Yang Kai was speechless for a moment, so he simply closed his mouth and did not speak.

   Li Ke did not continue to embarrass him, but continued.

   "Don't rob jobs that can't be done in the future. Closer to home, I think this newspaper was released deliberately by the alliance."

  Yang Kai frowned slightly.

   "They spread panic in their colonies?"

   Li Ke said with a smile.

"Panic? Is this your first day in Dawn City? The survivors there are notoriously fearless of death. Have you never seen them fight with the legion? It's just a joke for them to admit that they are cowardly in the field they are best at, and that level of intimidation.”

  Yang Kai nodded, reluctantly agreeing with this statement.

  Although he did not participate in the Falcon City peace negotiations, he was fortunate enough to witness the decisive battle between the Alliance and the Church of the Torch when he was in Jinchuan Province.

  The mutated creature that covered the sky was like a dark cloud. Even he thought that the manager had to make a change, but he didn't expect that guy to go into battle himself, and killed the leading node creature on the opposite side in seconds with a hammer.

  Those guys defied his stereotype of blue-jacketed goodies.

   "What is your opinion?"

   Li Ke said bluntly.

   "The Chief Technology Officer's opinion is the opinion of our Foreign Affairs Department. Mr. Technical Officer hopes that you will at least get the opportunity to jointly study the brood nest in the city center before the alliance reaches an exclusive agreement with a third-party force."

  Yang Kai: "Where are those ruins?"

  Li Ke: "Sub-priority."

  The college has excavated a lot of ruins.

   Although the ruins of Qingquan City are important, they are not so important that they must be. In contrast, the senior management of the academy paid more attention to the biological specimen in the city center.

   Knowing that, Yang Kai took a deep breath and said.

   "I will fight for... your side, please cooperate with me, I need your intelligence support."

  Looking at this guy finally lowering his head, the corner of Li Ke's mouth curled up with a hint of complacency.

  But he knew very well that pretense should be moderate, so before Yang Kai became angry, he coughed lightly and said.

"No problem, Mr. Technical Officer has already guessed that you will screw things up. Oh, yes, I read the report you uploaded. Regarding the special zone plan mentioned by the alliance, Mr. Technical Officer thinks it can be discussed. His The opinion is that Ice Sea City is a good choice, the conditions there are good in all aspects, and there happens to be a frozen brood in the nearby abandoned city. Of course, if the alliance has other opinions, we can talk about it."

   "Okay..." Yang Kai nodded after listening to the suggestion carefully.

   Li Ke also nodded, and was about to hang up the communication.

  But at this moment, he suddenly remembered something and said.

   "Oh, yes, you'd better hurry up. Not long after you left, the people from the enterprise contacted the alliance."

  After hearing this sentence, Yang Kai was stunned for a moment.

   "Shortly after I'm gone... wait, shortly after I'm gone?"

   Li Ke looked at Yang Kai who suddenly sat up straight excitedly with a strange face, and asked puzzledly.

"What's wrong?"

   "It's nothing..." Swallowing back the words, Yang Kai's nose was so angry that he clenched his fists, cursing in his heart.

  When he was in the Union Building earlier, the guy's subordinates told him that their managers were in a meeting with representatives of the company.

   It took him a long time to fool him! ?

  Looking at the blushing Yang Kai, Li Ke had a strange expression on his face.

   "Are you okay?"

  Yang Kai said with a stiff face.

   "I'm fine."

   Li Ke coughed.

   "If something happens, it's better to say it—"

   "My terminal is out of power."

   Before the guy could finish speaking, Yang Kai swiped his index finger in the air, and hung up the communication with annoyed expression.

   On the other side, shelter 404, the browsing room on the B4 floor.

   Facing Chu Guang's inquiry about where the special zone should be established, Yin Fang only thought for two seconds before giving his own opinion.

   "If you ask my opinion, Ice Sea City is a good choice."

  Looking at the location Yin Fang circled on the map before the Renlian war, Chu Guang was slightly taken aback.

"so far?"

  He felt that something was wrong when he heard the word ice sea, but when he looked at the map, his guess was confirmed.

   This is no longer north, simply reached the northernmost edge of the Wandering Swamp, and walked two steps further north to the Arctic Circle.

  As if expecting Chu Guang to say that, Yin Fang touched the bridge of his nose and said with a smile.

   "Don't look at its location, this is the settlement with the most complete facilities and the most comprehensive resources under the jurisdiction of the Science and Technology Committee."

   Paused for a moment, he then introduced the situation of this settlement to Chu Guang.

  Because the Science and Technology Committee adheres to the principle of high production and low consumption, even if the production technology and production methods in most settlements are not backward, the survivors living there still live a relatively economical life—even a life of poverty.

  If you want to get rid of the difficult living standard, the only way to go is to become a prospector.

   However, this situation is not without exception.

  Although the academy hates corporate-style waste, under the jurisdiction of the Science and Technology Committee, it is still good to have a few settlements.

  Ice Sea City is one of them.

  This settlement used to be a doomsday seed vault, which not only has a nuclear, biological and chemical protection system comparable to a shelter, but also the temperature of each area can be adjusted freely.

  After the academy took over the seed bank, it transformed most of the space into living areas and planting areas. The temperature in each area is set between 20 and 25 all year round.

  Thus, although this settlement is located in the extreme north, not only is it not cold in the settlement, but it is like spring all year round.

   With the support of technology, instead of becoming an obstacle to survival, the cold became a barrier that isolated the settlement from the wasteland.

  Most of the alien species wandering in the swamp can't go so far north, and in the severe cold of minus 20 or even 50 degrees all year round, even the brood can only hide and hibernate.

  Because of the favorable living conditions here, some middle and high-level researchers of the college will arrange relatives who cannot enter the college here.

   Over time, various living facilities here have gradually improved.

  Especially in the two aspects of medical care and education, even though it is a little worse than the main campus of the college, compared with other settlements under the Science and Technology Committee, it can be described as heaven and earth.

   Even the ideal city of the enterprise is much inferior.

  And this is also the reason why most college researchers don't envy the life of Ideal City, and even scoff at the ostentatious prosperity.

"...Ice Sea City is located in a place of bitter cold, so it is reasonable to consume more supplies. Therefore, most of the survivors of the settlement under the Science and Technology Committee were as surprised as you were after hearing the location of the settlement. No one would envy the life there... but they don't know that even if people dig potatoes there, they are watching automated machines digging in heated greenhouses."

  After listening to Yin Fang's teasing ridicule, Chu Guang sighed after a long time.

   "It seems that where there are people, there are rivers and lakes."

  Yin Fang chuckled.

"I don't mean anything else, I just hope you don't underestimate those guys. Sometimes they look honest, but in fact they have a lot of eyes. And don't talk about feelings and credit with the people there. There is basically no such thing above C level... I dare not say absolutely, I can only say that it is basically like this."

   It seems that this guy's resentment towards his old club is not so great.

  When it comes to the company, he is at most disdainful and contemptuous, but when it comes to the old company, he always becomes a bitter wife unconsciously.

   "I'll keep an eye out for..."

  Chu Guang coughed lightly, and returned his attention to the red circle on the map.

   There are two ways to play this card that establishes a special zone.

  In addition to pure communication technology and poaching, he can also use this window to reversely export good things from the alliance to the academy's territory.

   During the communication with Ideal City, it has been proved that although many things in the alliance are immature, as an imported product that the other party has never seen, it is still quite attractive.

   Especially in the field of culture.

  Currently, the Cr foreign exchange income generated by Changyue Group alone has already caught up with one-third of the output value of Xizhou Industrial Zone!

  And a certain game company has gained millions of fans on the endpoint cloud through several novel gameplays... or retro explosive VR games!

   Behind this not only means huge economic value, but also more invisible hidden value.

  For example, those volunteers who came to the alliance to work as teachers in refugee homes and orphanages were largely attracted by the prosperous culture of the alliance.

  How to balance the ratio between NPCs who go to the academy to learn new knowledge and players who make troubles, he still has to study carefully.

   While Chu Guang was thinking about how to maximize his benefits, Xiao Qi's voice suddenly came into his ears lightly.

   "Master, Yi Chuan, the enterprise ambassador to the alliance, wants to meet with you. It's getting late now, how do you think tomorrow morning?"

  After listening to Xiao Qi's report, Chu Guang replied casually.

   "No problem, by the way, did he say what's the matter?"

  Xiao Qi: "It seems to be about that newspaper."

newspaper?

  Chu Guang froze for a moment.

   Seemingly seeing Chu Guang's confusion, Xiao Qi unfolded the holographic screen thoughtfully.

   And what appeared on the screen at this moment happened to be the headline of the "Qingquan City Daily" that old Charlie had given him earlier.

  Looking at the three-page newspaper on the holographic screen, Yin Fang raised his eyebrows and asked curiously.

   "What is this thing? Qingquan City...daily newspaper?"

   His lab does order some newspapers.

   But did Dawn City release this one?

  Chu Guang had a subtle expression on his face.

   "Nothing...just a not-so-funny joke."

   Good guy.

   Some people really believe in this thing...

   Meanwhile, Highway Town Inn.

  Sun Yuechi, who was dressed as a traveler, was sitting in the corner of the lobby, ordered a glass of honey butter beer recommended by the innkeeper, and quietly flipped through the newspaper he just bought from a nearby newsstand.

   "...The brood in Qingquan City was secretly kept in captivity by the manager?"

  His eyebrows were raised slightly, and he continued to look down the lines of text, and couldn't help but marvel in his mouth.

   "Using fruit entities to rebuild civilization is a way to break the situation... The manager of this refuge is indeed a talent!"

  Vault 404.

   Speaking of which, what mission does this shelter perform?

  He thought about it for a long time, but he couldn't remember it at all. Then he shook his head and stopped thinking about it, and continued to read the newspaper in his hand.

  However, at this moment, a loud roar interrupted Sun Yuechi's thinking, making him raise his head involuntarily.

   "Enough! What nonsense!"

  I saw a burly man slapping the table and getting up, blushing and staring at a few foreign mercenaries sitting beside him with a thick neck, and continued angrily.

   "Our manager regards the alliance as more important than himself. If I hear you say those baseless slanders, I will put the table in front of you in your mouth!"

  He is a veteran of the First Corps, and he followed the administrator a long time ago. His feelings for Vault 404 are far more profound than those of other survivors, because those people always rush ahead of them, always putting themselves in the most dangerous place.

  Great managers are even more so.

  He is so worried about the alliance that he is so busy that he doesn't even have his own children. How dare these guys speak ill of him in front of him!

  He wished he could shoot this guy!

The mercenary was stunned by the yelling. He was discussing the newspaper he saw from the newsstand with his companion just now, and happened to talk about one of the conspiracy theories put forward in the newspaper—taking the brood nest in the city center as his own and raising it in captivity. The alliance manager in the east district of Qingquan City is brewing a terrible conspiracy.

  When the time is right, that adult will suddenly launch a wave, turning everyone here into a marionette like a fruiting body.

  The mercenary himself didn't believe this kind of argument, he just gossiped a few words in a playful manner, but his voice might be a little louder, so that others could hear him.

   It's just that what he didn't expect was that others would have such a big reaction.

  If it's in Buguera, it's okay to point at Sigma's nose, anyway, that kind of big man doesn't care about these cockroaches, and they usually don't see him.

   But alliances seem to be something else...

  The lobby of the hotel fell silent for a while.

   Originally, he was just an angry guy, so it wouldn't make him so scared, but he soon discovered that there were more than one pair of eyes on him.

   There are many powerful awakeners among them.

   "I..." Cold sweat rolled down his forehead. He, who had never felt such a huge pressure, stuttered and couldn't speak for a while.

  Fortunately, his companion reacted quickly, and hurriedly apologized to the burly man with an uneasy face.

"Sorry, brother, we don't mean anything... It's the first time we came here with a caravan, and we don't know you well, so we bought a newspaper to have a look. We didn't make this up, so we have to blame this newspaper, right? ?”

   As he spoke, he handed over the newspaper.

  The strong man who was still angry took the newspaper with a dark face, crumpled it up and threw it aside.

  The mercenary cursed in his heart, but he didn't dare to make trouble on other people's territory, so he spread his hands in embarrassment.

   "Can I take this as a reconciliation? It's just a drunk gaffe, we really mean nothing..."

   Just as the atmosphere at the scene froze, Old Hook, who had noticed the situation here, coughed and interrupted to round things up.

"He's right. It's pointless for you to embarrass him. If you want to blame it, you can blame the "Qingquan City Daily" that came out of nowhere... Speaking of which, I also received a dozen this morning. It was delivered by the newspaper, and I took a glance at it and threw it away as trash."

   "Someone is printing this garbage!"

  The strong man also realized that his reaction was too violent, and it would be shameful to take his anger out on passers-by, so he muttered angrily and went down the steps.

  Old Hook shrugged helplessly.

   "That adult has too many things to worry about, it's impossible to worry about everything personally, isn't it?"

   Of course, this is also his advantage.

  He only cared about whether people could afford what was on the shelves, not what people wanted to buy.

  As he said at the last ceremony, as long as the trade does not involve honor and dignity.

  People discussed in a hurry, talking about the Qingquan City Daily that came out of nowhere.

  Looking at the roll of newspapers that rolled to the side of the bar, Big Eyed Lian picked it up curiously and glanced at it.

   It doesn't matter if you don't read it.

  When I saw him, I was immediately angry.

   "Damn! Is Xiaoyu that kind of person?"

  He didn't read the content of the conspiracy theory carefully, and he didn't pay much attention to it. The key point was that it was written in this newspaper. Why did Xiaoyu feel like the manager's slave?

  CP got it wrong!

   Lao Bai, who was holding the wine glass, laughed and joked.

   "Xiaoyu doesn't seem to be human."

   Resting his chin on the back of his hand, Chen Yutong, who was slightly drunk from drinking, also teased.

   "Indeed, but I think it is much cuter than humans."

  She has also learned some of the players' languages ​​recently. Although she is not very proficient in using them, she basically has no problems with daily communication.

  Old Bai laughed out loud.

   "Your taste is too unique."

   Lian Dayan hiccupped, got up from the bar drunkenly, crumpled up the newspaper angrily and threw it into the trash can.

   "Whether it is human or not, it is our comrade in arms who fought side by side! And most importantly, it is my good brother Luo Yu's wife!"

  Irena looked at him funny.

   "You can talk nonsense while Luo Yu is not here."

   By the way, this guy is probably trying to improve his favorability, right?

  He seems to be filled with Kohane's fruiting body?

   "Hi-in short! My big eyes will never allow someone to discredit our Xiaoyu!"

  Stomping on the table next to him, he rolled his big eyes, and yelled loudly at the drunkards who were full of righteous indignation and discussing.

   "Someone dares to discredit our supreme manager!"

   "I'm paddling on the edge of the water, the head of the Death Corps, no matter who the **** is that grandson, I must show him some color!"

  Hearing his name for edge paddling, Irena almost spit out her wine.

   And at this moment, Lian Dayan, who was drunk, suddenly took out a pistol from his pocket, and slammed it against the ceiling with a gunshot.

  As soon as the gunshot rang out, the atmosphere in the entire lobby was instantly ignited, and all the elders shouted enthusiastically.

   "Exactly!"

   "We must give that grandson some color!"

   "But where can we find him?"

   "The printing house that delivers newspapers!"

   "Aww!"

  Looking at the out-of-control scene in front of him, Lao Bai was stunned for a moment, while Irena snatched the pistol from Lian Dayan's hand.

   "Are you crazy? Don't want it anymore?!"

   "Hey, don't panic, it's empty."

   Lian Dayan who came down from the table smiled, bent down to pick up the empty shell casing and shook it in front of Irena.

  However, what he didn't expect was that he finally received a yellow card for 5 minutes, rolled his eyes and went offline within two seconds.

   Lisa with a pale face looked at him worriedly and asked in a low voice.

   "Is he all right?"

  Old Bai was used to this, he smiled and comforted the little girl.

   "It's okay, this guy drank too much, we will take him back to rest."

  In fact, Xiao Qi still kept his hands.

  Firing a gun in public, even if it is empty, even if it is a first-time offender, at least 24 hours of yellow cards will be given, let alone in a beer hall.

   A group of drunks didn't care about the coward who was drinking and laying down. They only vaguely heard the call from the head of the Death Corps.

  Seeing that the atmosphere was getting more and more frightening, the mercenaries who raised the topic first were so frightened that they dropped their money to pay the bill, and slipped out before finishing their drinks.

  Old Hook looked helpless, but he didn't stop the guys who rushed out of the door. He just threw the rag aside and said to Lisa who was holding the dinner plate in a daze.

   "You can leave work early today."

   Lisa whispered nervously.

   "Is it okay to leave them alone?"

   "It's okay, there are shelter residents here, they can control the situation, and they shouldn't make things too outrageous..." Old Hook was also not sure, and he muttered "probably" in a low voice behind.

   To be honest, he doesn't like to see someone discrediting their managers, although the grown-up may not care much about such trivial matters.

  If he hadn't taken them in that winter, his old bones would have been lost somewhere in the wasteland.

  Today's life is like a dream for him, a wastelander, and he will never forget that kindness in his life.

  It's a pity that he doesn't know who wrote that article, otherwise he would definitely have to kick that guy in the ass.

  Seeing the drunkards getting up one after another and flocking to the door, Sun Yuechi, who was sitting in the corner, hurriedly put away the newspaper, for fear that people would see that he also had a copy here.

   But people don't notice him, and if they do, they don't care.

  Someone has pointed out the direction for them. They are going to the printing factory, where they can vent their anger.

  Looking at the fanatical crowd of Wuyang Wuyang rushing to the street, Sun Yuechi's forehead was covered with black lines.

  Is this colony really normal?

  He couldn't help but start to doubt the rumors he heard on the road...

  At the same time, Sindison, who was sitting in front of the window of the same hotel room, had a gloating smile on his face.

   Especially when he saw more and more people gathering on the street and the guards who came to maintain order, his smile became even brighter.

   "Tsk tsk, it's going to be a mess."

   Not as he expected.

  The newspaper produced by him in conjunction with other merchants really ignited the anger of these survivors.

  As long as the public opinion continues to ferment, the fruiting bodies in the East District of Qingquan City will soon become a hot potato.

  At that time, they can appear in front of the alliance authorities as saviors, and buy those fruit entities at a cheap price.

  However, it would be a pity to make such a smart fruiting body into a nutritional cream.

  Maybe he can hire a few researchers to think about it and see if he can make those fruit entities work for him. Isn't the business of labor dispatch more promising than "trash collection"?

  Hindison clenched his fists excitedly, cheering for the gathered survivors.

   Let the storm come more violently!
