This Game is Too Real Chapter 674

  Chapter 674 Brother Fang's big picture

   It turns out that dangling people like cargo under an airship is really not a good idea.

  At the beginning, there were more than ten tons of cargo hanging below, and the shaking of the traction rope was not too exaggerated.

  After the cargo was unloaded on the deck, the hanging rope immediately began to sway restlessly. Almost as soon as the Cowhorse airship took the blue lantern off the deck, the latter felt the feeling of flying.

   Fortunately, the pilot of the airship was quite skilled. After several attempts, no one was killed, and the blue lantern holding the suitcase was safely returned to the camp.

   His feet finally touched the ground. The first thing he did after landing was to squat on the ground and get up.

   Walking to the side of this man, Fang Chang smiled and said a word of concern.

   "How do you feel bro?"

"good…"

   It took a long time to recover, and Qing Deng, who was sitting on the ground, couldn't help but continue to sigh.

   "This game... the physics system is... quite real."

   "Haha, as long as you are happy," Fang Chang said with a smile, "The shipping fee will be settled."

   "Oh yes, I almost forgot about it," Qing Deng slapped his head, opened the suitcase, counted out ten hundred-yuan banknotes, and handed them over with an embarrassed smile, "Thank you, Brother Ha."

   "You're welcome." Fang Chang reached out and took the banknotes and stuffed them into his pocket, looking at the direction the cargo ship was leaving with a smile and squinting his eyes, "We are happy to cooperate."

  One thing is one thing.

  Although it is easy to do, the start and stop of the airship also has fuel expenditure.

  Even if he doesn't care about this small amount of money, he still has to consider the interests of the largest shareholder of the Niu Ma Group—the collective of No. 404 Vault.

  Currently, Niu Ma Group's net assets are TOP1 in the entire server, including the business in Ideal City, even higher than the sum of the second and third children. In contrast, its rigorous financial audit is also among the best in the server.

  If it is a general game behavior that does not generate economic benefits, it is fine. Once economic benefits are generated, it is a business operation, and it is not worthwhile to brush aside the thousand silver coins. Therefore, he must accept the money, and it must be recorded in VM's account book in a while.

   Looking away from a distance, Fang Chang looked at Daoxialiuren who was following him.

   "... Speaking of the loading and unloading method of this airship, I think it is still unreliable. If you are not careful, you will lose money and money. Let's get a dock as soon as possible."

  The man under the knife sighed.

"I'm thinking about it, but repairing the pier is much more complicated than the construction sites on the shore, and the aliens in the shallow sea area are also a problem. Those things are different from those on the shore, and there is no way to enclose them with walls and wait for construction It must be troublesome time."

  If it is in the valley province, there are only a few types of alien species. The big ones are driven into the deep mountains and old forests by the players. The old three mutant cockroaches, mice, and hyenas can be directly connected to the psychological interference device and the job is over.

   But Baiyue Province is different.

  There are a lot of alien species in the sea, especially the shallow seabed of the Baiyue Strait. Many marine alien species active in shallow water like to move around in this area.

  The wave band that the psychic interference device can set is limited, and it is impossible to drive out all the alien species.

  In fact, the psychic interference device installed on the ship by the Federation of the Southern Islands is only to drive away a few alien species that are easy to capsize the ship.

   As for soaking a large amount of black iron wood in water like Silver Moon Bay, although it is also a good way, the loss of materials is too great.

  Black ironwood is a temperate plant, and there is no way to introduce it to the tropics. If they follow the example of Yinyue Bay, they can only import it from No. 4 oasis in large quantities.

   Economically speaking, this is obviously not a good idea.

   Fang Chang frowned slightly.

   "Where's the fence?"

  Dao Xialiuren said with a wry smile.

   "Do you think it's the kind of small fish and shrimp in reality? What kind of net can stop the alien species..."

   Hearing the conversation between the two, Qingdeng Gujiu, who patted his pants and got up from the ground, interjected casually.

"How about the devil's wire? I think the split-claw crabs and warship shrimps in Xizhou City use that stuff to make their nets. It's better than wire and won't rust. By the way, those fishermen seem to be I used that thing as a fishing line, and I heard that if the pole was torn, the rope would not be broken. The boat was overturned, but the nets were all good."

  Hearing these words, Daoxia Liuren was stunned.

yes.

   Devil silk is a specialty of Dawn City!

  Passing his chin and thinking about it, the more he thought about it, the brighter his eyes became, and he muttered.

   "I'm thinking about it... Fuck, maybe it's a joke! At least it shouldn't be a problem to stop those mutated turtles and crabs!"

"Don't think about it. When I go offline, I will ask Ye Shi to place an order in Shuguang City. I will order a batch of devil silk blocks first. Let's try it directly when the next flight comes back! If it works, even if it doesn't It's also good to repair the pier and take care of the safety of the shore.”

   Putting these words aside, Fang Chang smiled and patted Qingdeng Gujiu on the arm.

   "Okay, brother, you have a good idea! Next time, if you have any good suggestions, remember to post them on the forum post. If you have any good suggestions, let's use them directly!"

   Seeing that his opinion was so useful, Qingdeng Gujiu also had a flattered expression, and said with an embarrassed smile.

   "Really?! Then I'll be rude."

   Fang Chang said with a smile.

   "You're polite, you're all my own."

  1,000 silver coins are small coins, and 140,000 silver coins are also small coins, but the economic value of "a port with an average daily cargo throughput of tens of millions of silver coins" is not a small sum.

  Baiyue Strait Development Co., Ltd. is engaged in a "platform economy". It is convenient to cut leeks in the future after serving customers comfortably.

  Such as port fees, loading and unloading fees, handling fees, storage fees, trimming fees, barge fees... and so on, they can be copied from reality.

   At that time, won't you just lie down and make money?

correct.

  Considering that the people doing business on the wasteland are all ruthless people who kill people and sell goods part-time, in the future, two coastal defense gun towns will have to be built on the shore.

  For some reason, Qingdeng Gujiu always felt a little panicked when looking at this gentleman with a gentle and easy-going smile.

   Probably an illusion...

   Coughed, Qing Deng changed the subject.

"By the way...Speaking of which, isn't Ideal City also on the seashore? I remember it was at the mouth of Tianshui? Do they have a construction ship at the pier or something? If the price is right, we can outsource it to them. It will be much easier to transport the equipment from the city by air.”

  Fang Chang stroked his chin with interest and nodded.

   "That's a good idea, I'll check back later."

   Ashamed to say, he, the first player to arrive at Ideal City, almost forgot that Ideal City is by the sea!

  Not all the things they need have to be purchased from Dawn City.

  The alliance has signed a currency swap agreement with the company, and Niuma Group itself has some unsettled foreign exchange that can be used. It may be an option to directly invite bids in Ideal City to repair a port for French Fry Port.

  Speaking of it, Li Shuyue's Kisaragi Group seems to be the largest "property" in Ideal City—a subsidiary of Ideal Group?

  Fang Chang heard about it a long time ago. That guy's identity is not simple, and he seems to have a background on the board of directors of Ideal Group.

   Maybe…

  You can ask her for help.

Just when Fang Chang was hesitating whether to fly to Ideal City specifically for this matter, at the entrance and exit of the fence in the northern section of Potato Chips, two tracked vehicles with bulldozing shovels hung on their bumpers were being approached by a hundred fully armed Under the **** of the player, advance towards the depths of the jungle.

   These 100 players are all ruthless people with high combat power in the server, half of them are brothers of the Burning Corps, and half belong to the Jungle Corps.

  K-10 "Iron Wall" exoskeleton armed most of the players to the teeth, and a few of them took the lead in wearing power armors such as "Xiaguang" and "Dragoon".

   And those two tracked vehicles with bulldozing shovels are even more unusual, they are the imitation version of the standard "reindeer" tracked vehicles of the academy elite team!

  Before, the Burning Corps intercepted this set of "Mobile Research Workstation" from the Beacon Squad of the Academy, and imitated it as far as technology allowed.

   However, due to the limited technical conditions of the alliance, the design units involved in reverse engineering can only make drastic reductions to it.

Not only has the height been reduced to 3.5 meters, but the length has been reduced to 6 meters. The original variety of weapon platforms has also been reduced to a remote-controlled weapon station that "integrates a 20mm cannon, a short-barrel grenade launcher, and a smoke generator of the same style as a tank." .

   Under the proposal of Yin Fang, the head of the scientific expedition team, the "armed scientific research vehicle" allocated to the scientific expedition team was finally named "Husky".

  From this malicious name, it is not difficult to see that the researchers of the scientific expedition team do not have much hope for this guy's reliability.

   But having said that, even though this simplified version of the "Reindeer" tracked vehicle is incomparable with the genuine "Reindeer", the scientific research equipment that this tracked vehicle should have is still unambiguous.

  For example, a sample library that can provide an ultrlow temperature environment of approximately minus 273 degrees, a refrigerated hibernation chamber that can operate in harsh environments for at least 20 years, and mobile workstations equipped with quantum processors and various precision sensors.

  If you pick up any of these devices, they are worth millions of silver coins.

And this is also thanks to the scientific research cooperation agreement negotiated between Chu Guang and the representatives of the college, allowing the alliance to purchase a batch of equipment for scientific research from the research department of the college at an agreed price denominated in silver coins. Otherwise, many of these things would not be available for money. arrived.

  Although the alliance always finds new ways to save money on weapons and equipment, its investment in scientific research has never been ambiguous.

  As long as there are good things, Chu Guang will definitely try his best to use them for the researchers of the alliance and give them the maximum support.

   It is precisely because of this that in order to live up to the expectations of the managers, the scientific research institutions of the alliance are full of high enthusiasm for work from top to bottom, both at the grassroots level and at the top level.

  The "Explorer" airship carrying scientific research equipment had almost stopped at Chip Harbor, and the staff of the Institute of Biology and the scientific expedition team immediately formulated an action plan.

  Two "Huskies" tracked vehicles were deployed on the north side of the camp. After the security personnel were in place, the two groups of people rushed into the lush rainforest like a race.

  The leader of the dispatch team at the Alliance Institute of Biology is Chen Yutong, whose outstanding performance in related subjects in Jinchuan Province has been recognized by Heya.

  The captain of the scientific expedition team is Meng Liang, a former resident of Vault 401. His resume is also not simple. He once served as an army prospector on the Iron Heart and participated in the investigation of "Vault 0".

   It is worth mentioning that the two captains are both "cross-border" talents.

  When he was an E-level prospector in the college, Chen Yutong's main major was AI, and biotechnology was only an amateur. After entering the alliance, he officially took bioengineering as his main direction.

  The No. 401 Vault where Meng Liang was in before was researching mind interference technology, and the research he was engaged in was mainly related to the biological field.

  It wasn't until he was rescued by the alliance from the predators that he became interested in archeology, and started digging graves with Yin Fang.

  At this moment, the tracked vehicle at the end of the team is marching.

  Chen Yutong, who was sitting next to the bioanalyzer, was staring intently at the leaves pinched by his fingertips, his expression lost in thought.

   This leaf was picked from a nearby tree when she got off the airship.

   At first glance, it seems to be no different from ordinary tropical green plants, but her intuition tells her that this thing is definitely not as simple as it looks.

  Especially when, just a few minutes ago, the Alliance's local construction team reported to her some unusual phenomena here.

  The local forest seems to have some kind of strange self-healing ability, which can recover the "damage" received at a speed visible to the naked eye.

  And this extraordinary self-healing ability is not reflected in a single species, but a collective presentation across species.

  For example, if you cut down a palm tree, what grows the next day is a side of bamboo grass and linseed vine...

   Staring at the leaves at his fingertips, Chen Yutong couldn't help but have a look of interest in his eyes.

  Although the main reason for her coming here is to avoid more and more academic people in Qingquan City, after learning about the local situation, she has become more and more curious about the secrets of this land.

   "...The analysis results are out." A colleague's voice came from the direction of the bioanalyzer, interrupting Chen Yutong's thoughts.

   Putting the leaf aside, Chen Yutong immediately got up and walked to the terminal beside him, staring at the data on the screen and asking.

"turn out?"

"It's strange..." The researcher sitting in front of the terminal said with a puzzled expression, "The Nago strain we collected in Jinchuan Province can't infect the vegetation in this area. We tried a total of seven groups of samples and failed. , even if we adjusted the temperature to a temperature suitable for those strains to grow."

   "However, the experiment in Qingquan City was successful." Chen Yutong said thoughtfully, "All twelve groups of samples were infected by No. J Naguo strain."

   "Yes..." The researcher nodded, with a puzzled expression on his face.

  The so-called No. J Naguo strain is a strain collected in Jinhe City, Jinchuan Province. Its characteristic is that it is suitable for growing in subtropical to temperate humid areas.

Compared with the original strain "B" collected from Baiyue Province, "J" fused with the brood genome of Qingquan City showed a strong aggressiveness, and this is also the "Heavenly Kingdom" pervading Haiya Province. "The truth.

Refuge No. 79 simulated the climate and environment of Jinchuan Province and Baiyue Province respectively, and mixed the plants collected in Baiyue Province with No. J Naguo strain in different sizes of petri dishes. The plants collected in the Baiyue province were corroded and assimilated by the Naguo fungus.

  Later, the researchers of the alliance made further observations and found that when strain B appeared in the petri dish, the growth rate of strain J was significantly inhibited, but this inhibitory effect disappeared after only persisting for 48 hours.

  Alliance Institute of Biological Research previously speculated that the original strain of Baiyue Province, that is, strain B, could inhibit the growth of strain J artificially cultivated by the Church of the Torch.

   However, what is puzzling is that they did not observe any phenomenon in the laboratory that could support this conjecture.

  In order to find out why the Torch Church's Naguo strain did not spread to Baiyue Province, the Alliance Institute of Biology approved experiments in this area.

Surprisingly, they didn't even add strain B to the petri dish, but just set up a few control groups where the plants from Baiyue Province were mixed with strain J, and observed the incredible inhibitory effect .

  The same experiment got completely different results in Baiyue Province.

   Even the J strain introduced into the petri dish not only failed to erode the plants in the petri dish, but even shrank—as if the soil and water were not acclimatized.

  The researchers in the compartment started whispering.

   "Could it be a soil problem?"

   "Obviously not. Some of the experiments we did in Shelter 79 used the soil sampled from Baiyue Province."

   "Is it not the original strain B that inhibits the growth of strain J?"

   "The possibility is not ruled out..."

   "It's weird."

  Chen Yutong didn't speak, just stared at the screen lost in thought.

  She actually agrees with another point made by her colleagues, that the factor that inhibits strain J is not the original strain B, but something else.

   Something that exists only in this land...

What could it be?

   At this moment, the voice of the No. 1 train crew came from her earphones.

  Meng Liang: "...This is the scientific expedition team. We plan to go to the former site of Shilong City to search for an underground relic. What about you?"

  Recovering from his contemplation, Chen Yutong glanced at the map hanging in the carriage, raised his index finger and pressed it to his ear and said.

   "We plan to continue heading north for three kilometers...the signal fed back on the life signal detection device there is abnormal, and there may be samples we need."

  Meng Liang said with a smile: "It seems that we have split up and acted. I wish you good luck."

  Chen Yutong bent the corners of his mouth.

   "You too."

  The two teams parted ways.

  The vehicle crew of the Union Institute of Biological Research continued to advance northward under the **** of the Burning Corps, while the vehicle crew of the scientific expedition team was escorted by the Jungle Corps towards the former site of Shilong City.

  Looking at the friendly army continuing to advance north, the players of the Jungle Corps all cast envious eyes.

   Just an hour ago, most of the players in the vicinity received a reminder of the area quest to search for the brood.

   Finding that guy will not only unlock the limited title, but also reward you with 1 million silver coins and 10,000 contribution points!

  What is the concept of one million silver coins?

  There are more than one apartment in first-tier cities!

It is clear.

   People who follow the Institute of Biology are more likely to complete this task, and following the scientific expedition team is just looking for broken copper and iron from the old era.

   "Brother Chicken, can we trade with them?" Turning his head to kill the chicken at midnight, Voldemort said eagerly.

  Midnight Kill Chicken made a helpless expression.

   "I have nothing to do, the Institute of Biology called them by name."

  He didn't have the nerve to say that, in fact, the scientific research team also named the Burning Corps at the beginning, but Lao Bai took care of their game experience and didn't accept the task, so this task came to them.

   This is also impossible.

   Those ruthless people are really awesome, no matter the record or sequence level, believe it or not, look up at the Heart of Steel floating in the sky of Dawn City and you will understand.

  But understanding is all about understanding, and a group of strength animals couldn't help but make a noise.

   "I suspect that there is probably an ulterior PY transaction behind this."

   "Chicken brother, you can also trade."

   "Please Brother Chicken!"

  Listening to the chatter of these guys, Midnight Killed Chicken rolled his eyes.

   "Get out, go yourself!"

  Model Voldemort: "Damn!"

  The convoy of the scientific expedition team is still heading towards the former site of Shilong City, and the "Husky" of the Institute of Biology arrived at the destination first.

   "All teams spread out their vigilance!"

"receive!"

  Looking at his teammates gesturing OK, Lao Bai, who was wearing dragoon power armor, waved his hand, signaling the team members to disperse around the tracked vehicle, alerting them to possible threats in the jungle.

   There are many different species in this jungle.

  On the way here just now, they encountered four or five waves of attacks.

   The collection of samples needs to be carried out by the researchers of the research institute, and they must ensure the safety of these NPCs during this period.

   At this time, Chen Yutong, who was tightly wrapped in protective clothing, jumped out of the open car door with a toolbox in his right hand.

  Seeing that it was his acquaintance, Lao Bai couldn't help but stepped forward and asked.

   "How did you get down?"

  Hearing the worry in that tone, Chen Yutong couldn't help but bend the corners of her lips, but she didn't intend to go back to the car, she just said it as a matter of course.

   "I am the most senior here, and I am also in charge of the whole project. If I don't come down, who will come down?"

  Old Bai sighed and said patiently.

   "The situation here is a bit special. The alien species in the entire forest have never stopped attacking us. I think...you'd better be careful."

   "I know, it will be over soon." While speaking, she had already spread the toolbox on the ground, and took out the sampling tools and test tubes from it.

  Chen Yutong, who was squatting on the ground and busy, Lao Bai didn't want to disturb her at first, but seeing that she had been busy for a long time without any results, he still couldn't help asking.

   "About how long it will take."

   "Fifteen minutes at most... What? Are you scared?"

   "I'm worried about you."

   "I've even been to the Jinchuan province, and it's not more dangerous here than there."

  Old Bai made a helpless expression.

   "That's not good."

   There are no mutants or predators here, but there are so many different species, and each one is more ferocious than the other, he is not sure what will happen next.

   Chen Yutong, who was squatting on the ground, suddenly raised his head, looked at him and blinked.

   "But I trust you."

   "..." Lao Bai looked at her in astonishment and remained silent for a while.

   While he was in a daze for a while, the collection of a sample was completed.

  Carefully stuffing the test tube into the groove of the toolbox, Chen Yutong closed the box neatly, stood up, looked at him with a smile and said.

   "Let's go, let's go to the next place."

   "...Don't run around, send me the coordinates, and follow me."

  Hearing that serious voice, Chen Yutong couldn't help smiling.

   "I know, don't worry, I won't trouble your work."

   While speaking, she stretched out her index finger and tapped the VM twice, and the coordinates were quickly synchronized to Lao Bai's VM.

   Confirmed through the tactical eyepiece of the helmet, the coordinates are about 20 meters away from here. Lao Bai gestured for his teammates to follow on both sides, and he walked ahead to open the way.

  The rustling in the jungle made him tense up involuntarily, but Chen Yutong, who was following behind him, didn't seem to be afraid at all, and shared his discoveries along the way with him on the communication channel.

"I heard that the forest here has self-healing properties... This is basically consistent with the results of the analysis in our biological research institute. Sure enough, as we predicted, this tropical rainforest is not a simple forest, but Gaia The organisms produced by the fusion of the species of the planet and the species of the earth."

  Old Bai: "Fusion?"

   "Exactly."

  Looking at the dense woods on both sides and the sunlight passing through the gap, Chen Yutong narrowed his curious eyes slightly, and continued to speak briskly.

"...no similar examples are found in the ecosystem of the earth. We guess that this is an ecological phenomenon unique to the planet Gaia, and species will share their harvest in evolution among species, which is not widespread in the ecosystem of the earth. The existence of competition. This may be because they themselves evolved from the same primitive cell, and another possibility is not ruled out—they were originally an extremely developed civilization, and finally realized it according to their own civilization concepts and understanding of life. Ascension in the sense of species."

   Lao Bai looked back at her incomprehensibly.

   In this passage, there are concepts that he doesn't understand again.

  However, Chen Yutong didn't stop to explain, but continued to speak briskly.

   "The only thing we are not sure about now is whether this tropical rainforest has autonomous consciousness, just like the brood in Qingquan City."

"From the moment I entered this forest, I had a hunch that the key to solving the Naguo crisis is here. I don't agree with burning the entire Haiya Province. Since it is a problem in the biological field, we should find a solution from a biological perspective. The way... trust me, I can find that key, give me time."

  Trying to understand the meaning of these words, Lao Bai thought for a long time but had no clue, but finally gave up and shook his head.

   "I don't understand what you said, but if you need help, you can tell me... Also, just like the time in Jinchuan Province, you must follow me closely when you are on duty, and don't act without authorization."

  Chen Yutong bent the corners of his mouth.

   "Got it, I will follow you closely...By the way, have you recorded everything I said just now?"

  Old Bai was slightly taken aback.

   "Action recorder? I leave it on all the time."

  Nodding in satisfaction, Chen Yutong smiled and said.

   "That's good, I'm afraid I'll forget it one day, so you help me remember it first."

  Understanding the free and easy smile, Lao Bai shook his head, turned around and continued walking ahead.

   "Remember it yourself."

   "I won't make it work."
