This Game is Too Real Chapter 97

  Chapter 97 The second basement of Vault 404!

  Chu Guang had a very long dream.

   This time, it wasn't that I was working part-time until I was hit by a dump truck, but I dreamed of opening a round of Civilization 6, and it was an enhanced marathon bladder round once a year.

  When he started to develop from a primitive society, he sent scouts to step on the village frantically, and climbed and climbed along the technology tree... After several thousand rounds of climbing, he finally killed a few god-level AIs and pointed out a technological victory.

   But when he opened his eyes, there was nothing there.

   "Hey! At least wait for me to finish my dream!"

  No accident, if you continue to do it, maybe it will be civilized space?

   stretched and sat up from the bed, the bones of the whole body crackling.

  Chu Guang's heart moved, and he immediately went to the resident hall next door to find the medical equipment and gave himself a full body examination.

   As he expected, it really went up!

  ID: Chu Guang

  Gene Sequence: Manager

  Level: LV.8→LV.9

  ——Basic Properties——

  Strength: 10→11

  Agility: 6

   Constitution: 8

   Perception: 7

  Intelligence: 7

  Skill: Wild Instinct

   "Sure enough, you need to sleep to grow your body."

  Good children have to go to bed early.

   Sitting in front of the computer and confirming the electronic version of the medical report, Chu Guang casually dragged it into the folder for archive, stood up and moved his arm.

   The basic strength of a normal adult male is 220%, plus the attribute improvement of "wild instinct", Chu Guang feels that he is a brave group now.

   "Time to go out and get something to eat."

   Yes, and give players the spoils.

  Thinking of this, Chu Guang walked into the buffer room humming a little song, put on the exoskeleton placed there, and hung the big hammer firmly behind him.

  Everything is ready, and then I set foot on the elevator to the surface.

  Wasteland time at 5:30 pm, this is the busiest time of the outpost.

   Especially the market at the north gate was crowded with players returning from scavenging.

  Although there was snow in the sky again, it did not affect the lively atmosphere here at all.

   Now players have developed a habit of picking up garbage or hunting trophies, first come to the north gate to set up a stall, and no one buys them before sending them to the warehouse to hand in the materials.

   After this operation, you can earn two more copper coins than before, and those players who have shopping needs will also come here before going to the NPC shop.

"I don't know whether to say they are indifferent or strong. One tenth of the people died yesterday, but there is not a single person who grieves for the deceased, and there is not even a decent funeral." Standing at the north gate, Lena looked on Looking at the blue jackets in amazement.

   She found that they couldn't find a trace of sadness on their faces.

   "Indifference and strength do not conflict. The world has become like this. If you are not strong, you must be defeated by yourself before you are defeated by others."

  Hain was also the first time he saw such a blue jacket, but he had seen so many weird things, so he was just surprised.

   Existence is reasonable.

   Besides, if you think about it from another angle, if they are the kind of weak people who indulge in grief, I am afraid that standing here is another group of people.

   Attracted by a stall next to him, Hein stepped forward, looked at the cracked claw crab legs on the iron shelf for a while, and asked curiously.

"how much is this?"

   Ya Ya looked up at the NPC.

   Although I didn't understand what he said, I could probably guess from his gestures that he wanted to buy his own grilled crab legs.

  Yowy shook his index finger.

   "Small 1 silver coin."

   She hasn't figured out how much to sell yet. She plans to think about it again. After all, it's not cheap to buy it from a warehouse.

Does    mean a chip?

   The survivor settlements in Qingquan City seem to be trading with chips.

   "Come two."

  Hain gestured with two fingers, then took out two chips from his pocket and threw them on the outstretched hand.

  Yowya shook his head straight after seeing the chips, and hurriedly took out two silver coins and shook them in front of him.

  Hain and Lena looked confused.

   They have been to so many places and have never seen such a metal coin.

   Seeing that the two of them did not respond, he sighed helplessly, and reached out to pick up two chips.

   "Two plastic pieces can only be used as a silver coin."

   said, she touched the two chips and a silver coin, indicating that they were equal. Then he took out a grilled crab leg and handed it to Haen who was standing in front of the stall.

  2 chips for a grilled crab leg? !

are you crazy!

  It doesn't matter if it's bigger, this small crab leg obviously only weighs two or three pounds, and the crab meat inside is probably less than a kilogram.

  Hain's brow and mouth twitched, but he couldn't say anything.

   After all, I am now relying on others, and it is better to avoid conflicts.

  It still hurts!

   In such a rural place, 2 chips can buy a lot of supplies!

  Hain didn't want to buy a second one, but he still looked at his companion and said politely.

   "Do you want some?"

  Lenna didn't talk nonsense, she caught half of it with her left hand, and threw out the machete with her right hand, splitting the crab leg into two cleanly and shaking the half in her hand.

   "This piece belongs to me."

   Getting used to this guy's rudeness, Hein shook his head and said nothing, taking a bite of the soft and fragrant crab meat.

Um.

   Not to mention, it was delicious.

   It's just that the food sold at this roadside stall has no condiments, and it's still far from the meal that Chu Guang invited him to eat the day before yesterday.

   And it doesn't always feel fresh...

   After eating the crab meat, Luna licked the juice from the corner of her mouth, looked at the people in the market at the north gate, and suddenly said something coldly.

   "What do you think about their strength?"

  Hain thought for a while and gave a pertinent assessment.

   "Very strong. Whether it is psychological quality or all aspects of ability, these people are much stronger than the blue jackets I have seen."

"Especially their leader, I'm afraid he's on the verge of awakening... I don't understand, they're not barbarians who worship force. It's the first time I've seen a leader of one side train himself to awakening. Is the command unhappy?"

  Hain, who was halfway through speaking, suddenly noticed the intriguing expression on Lena's face, and said after a moment of hesitation.

"What do you want to do?"

   "I didn't **** you anyway," Lena said bluntly, shaking her hair, "I like strong males."

  Hain glanced at her mockingly, and then at the big girl grilling crab legs at the stall next to her.

   "Look, even she's grilling crabs, I don't think that man can like you."

   Aware of Lena's unkind eyes, Hain shrugged weakly, indicating that he was not her opponent, and made a surrender gesture and left.

   As the two of them were chatting, Chu Guang, carrying a sledgehammer, came out of the north gate.

   As soon as the players saw the manager, they immediately surrounded him with bright eyes.

   loot!

   Contribution points!

   There is also a favorability rating!

   Before waiting for the players to be attentive, Chu Guang, like a real NPC, raised his right fist majestically and made a gathering gesture.

   Then, he announced with a strong voice.

   "Split the spoils!"

   "Old rules, I won't repeat them."

   Walking to the cart where the loot was piled up, Chu Guang picked up a rifled double-barreled shotgun and started the work that the NPC should do—

  Evaluate the equipment!

"...This is an 18mm caliber double-barreled shotgun, and its owner is the leader of the Bloody Hand Clan - Bear. Although he, like Xi, has done evil all his life, he has been punished for his life, and was finally sent to **** by the hammer of justice. Their weapons were innocent. There was a bear engraved on the wooden butt, there may have been a few misspellings but it didn't matter, the predators had no culture."

   "The auction starts now, the starting price is 40 silver coins, and the highest price is 80 silver capped-"

   Mosquito took the lead, and before he finished speaking, he raised his hand.

   "80 silver!"

  Chu Guang: "...?"

  The players who were ready to go around were cursing.

   "Gee!"

   "It's this guy again!"

   "Too fast, too fast!"

  Chu Guang is also unable to be rectified.

   Originally, he thought that apart from the high-quality steel for the barrel, this broken gun had nothing else to offer, so he casually called for a price that was neither high nor low.

   Can this be done in seconds?

   But looking at the regretful expressions on the players' faces, he understood in an instant.

   "Tsk, I'm being careless... BOSS's equipment is collectible."

   What is that called?

   It's a weapon with a name anyway!

   thought in his heart that he was sloppy, but Chu Guang didn't take it too seriously.

   He is an informal man.

   Besides, there are still five weapons of the ten captains here, so I can make up some exaggerated legends for those bulls and horses in a while, isn't it too much to sell them?

   is also regarded as robbing the rich to help the poor.

The    auction was fast-paced, and all fifty main weapons were sold in half an hour.

   The remaining bits and pieces are 1 silver coin and 1 piece, and the rest are counted as 1 copper coin, and then pulled to the warehouse to sort slowly.

  50 pieces of equipment had 20 unsold auctions, and 30 pieces sold for a total of 971 silver. It is still the old rule to deduct 10% of the transaction tax to get 873.9 silver coins, erasing a fraction of 873 silver!

   In addition, 29 prisoners also count as 5 silver coins per person according to the team battle reward rules, which is converted into a total of 145 silver coins.

In addition to the 21 Marauder veterans killed in the battle, 5 Marauder Ten Commanders, 1 BOSS-level Marauder, and a series of dungeon branch rewards such as raiding strongholds and rescuing prisoners, the total reward actually reached 4371. A silver coin!

   In contrast, the amount of money raised by the auction is small.

   All 82 participating players can get at least 50 silver coins, and more can get 55 or even 60 coins!

   Just got rich overnight!

   In addition to loot rewards, players killed in battles also receive special pensions from the manager.

   However, the amount of the pension is not high. Taking the gene sequence LV1 as an example, each level is subsidized by 1 silver coin per day, and in three days, you can get almost 3 silver coins.

  LV2 is 6 silver, LV3 is 9 silver, and so on.

   The money is not much, but it is better than nothing, and after three days, I will be a hero again!

   "Long live the administrator!"

   "Cool! I have a gun now hahaha!"

   "Woooooo, 41 silver coins! I've never been so rich!"

   "Hurry up and buy something!"

  The professional combat players cheered for a while, holding the silver coins personally distributed by Chu Guang, and went to spend happily.

  The 8 life professional players who did not participate in the war looked at them and cried with envy. They knew that the reward was so high, so they took the shovel and stick together at that time.

  Yaya secretly marked the "high price" of 3 silver coins for the big crab leg. It couldn't be sold just now, but it should be able to sell now.

  Lenna and Hain, who were standing beside them, looked at each other with dazed expressions. After a while, they swallowed and communicated in a low voice.

   "What are they doing?"

   "Like an auction."

   "I don't understand, why is it their own loot, and they have to spend money to buy it back? Shouldn't it be who picks it up and belongs to who?"

   "I couldn't read it either, but I was shocked."

  Hain suddenly had a new understanding of the young ruler. Although he didn't know what method or spell he used, the art of power had been played to the extreme by him.

   There is nothing commendable about having a farmer dedicate his harvest, after all, a person loads a rifle.

   But if a group of farmers willingly, even gratefully, offered the coins in their hands to buy back their harvest...

   I am afraid that only demons have this ability.

   In any case, this is already two consecutive times in one day that Hein has raised his evaluation and opinion of the same person.

   However, Chu Guang, who was rated by him in his heart, doesn't care what others think of him.

  Compared to Kelly from Heaven, Chu Guang felt that he was already a good person, at least he wouldn't cheat the players' wallets, nor would he fool them with a hidden explosion rate.

  Does anyone really think that more money can make players happy?

Most of the people who think this way have played the game too little. They have never seen the kind of game where hundreds of millions of gold coins are scattered at every turn. In the end, only the fresh little leeks are refreshed and recharged, while those who are serious Players of liver games feel like a fool.

  Yes, Chu Guang has been tricked more than once, so he was very careful when designing the economic system of Wasteland OL.

   He is very clear that he is not like those real dog planners. He can randomly develop some "magic outfits" to absorb the excess currency, and then brush a bunch of BOSS with overflowing values ​​to stimulate players' krypton gold.

   In the cheers of the players, Chu Guang waved his hand, passed through the north gate and returned to the sanatorium, and took the elevator to the ground floor.

  The elevator to the B2 floor is in the residence hall of the B1 floor, it is still locked and there are still a few hours left to open.

   While there was still some free time, Chu Guang sat in front of the computer and updated the information he had sorted out from "Blood Hands Diary" in the settings set on the official website, for those cloud players and entertainers to imagine freely.

  Chu Guang then collected material on the forum for a while, like reviewing a memorial, he went over the post that he didn't have time to read last night.

   Some of these ideas are really good, and you can consider adding them to the Alpha0.5 version package.

  The time passed minute by minute, and finally it was two o'clock in the morning.

  Chu Guang saw that it was almost time, stretched out and sat up from the chair, put on the exoskeleton suit again, and carried the sledgehammer on his back.

  Although the possibility of the first generation of managers harming themselves is only one in ten thousand, it is better to be cautious.

   "Little Qi, I plan to go down."

  Xiao Qi, who had already returned to the corner to charge, raised the camera and nodded obediently.

   "Well, knowing the master, be careful."

   Chu Guang, who was about to stand on the elevator, stopped and glanced back at the wastepaper basket.

   "What do you mean by be careful? Do you mean there is something down there? Or do you know something?"

  Being dumbfounded by this series of questions, Xiao Qi was stuck for a while before she said dumbfounded.

   "I don't know... maybe not?"

   "Then why did you make me be careful?"

   "Huh?! Well, those are just everyday words stored in the language area..."

Uh.

   And this setting?

   "...you come with me."

   Looking at Xiao Qi, who kept his mouth shut and didn't speak, and rolled to his lap obediently, Chu Guang stood on the elevator to the B2 floor with confidence.

   is not a coward.

   This is purely out of an abundance of caution.

   As Chu Guang stepped in, two buttons B1 and B2, as well as the [Authorized] dialog box, appeared on the originally pitch-black touch screen.

  Chu Guang stretched out his index finger and pressed B2 without hesitation.

  The door closed lightly, and as the elevator sank slightly, the door opened again in less than three seconds, and a dry and refreshing air rushed through the crack of the door.

   There is even a hint of refreshing fragrance in it.

   "…air freshener?"

  Chu Guang had a strange expression and glanced at Xiao Qi next to him.

   "You go to explore the way."

"okay……"

   That voice sounded weak, even a little aggrieved.

   But Xiao Qi still listened to the master's words very much, and rolled her wheels forward.

   With his right hand holding the handle of the hammer behind him, Chu Guang walked steadily forward, cautiously stepping into this area that was said to have been untouched for more than a century.

   The floor here is very clean, there is no trace of dust, and there is no squeaking sound when you step on it.

  Not just the floor, everything around is so brand new that you can't even find the slightest trace of someone living there.

  The elevator is located in the center of the ring hall, which is like the stage of the ring theater, and the space is larger than the resident hall on the B1 floor.

  There are four gates in the south, south and northwest of the hall, and behind the gate is a straight main road and four fan-shaped areas divided by the main road.

  There are controllable alloy doors between adjacent partitions, which are usually open by default. When necessary, the gate can be dropped to isolate the partition as a whole.

   Among them, Area A is a functional area. The facilities inside seem to be quite complicated. Chu Guang intends to leave it to explore later.

   As for the structure of the BCD area, it is very simple. You can guess from the floor plan posted at the entrance that this is a residential area.

The dense number of doors and numbers are like pigeon cages, filling the entire corridor. It is roughly estimated that the area of ​​each room is only 4~5 square meters, which is enough for a training cabin and a table. to half the area of ​​the B1 floor.

   "Does this place really live?"

   Chu Guang, who was walking in the C area, was speechless, opened a room, and found that there was a training cabin inside, and there was nothing else.

All right.

   is fine.

   Maybe this is not a place to live.

   "...The room is a little too small, but the quadruple room has been changed to a standard room, which is considered a concern for the privacy of the players."

  There are 200 rooms in each partition, among which the rooms in the CD area are equipped with training cabins, adding up to a total of 400 rooms.

   The population cap of the Refuge has been directly raised from 100 to 500, which is undoubtedly good news for Chu Guang, who is in desperate need of labor.

   So many pits, enough for several versions!

   The only pity is that there is probably not enough population in winter.

   But it doesn't matter, it will be useful during spring ploughing!

   As for the B area, it is a very common configuration, with a bed and a foldable table in each room, not even a stool.

   "There should be people living here."

  Chu Guang pondered in his heart, but he searched all the rooms, but couldn't find a single personal item left behind.

  Including the matching quilts, they are all folded neatly, like tofu cubes. Even if you measure them with a ruler, you can't measure a millimeter error.

   "...If this has ever lived there, it would be too clean."

   As for?

   is like destroying criminal evidence.

   Just when Chu Guang was thinking so, he was slightly stunned when he walked to the last room on the main road in Area B.

   Not only did he stop, but Xiao Qi, who was rolling in front, also stopped.

   "Master, there seems to be something on the ground."

   "I saw it."

   It was a card that looked a bit like an ID card.

The   card landed in front of the room at the end of the hallway, just below the doorknob... The bait was so salty that it looked like it was left there on purpose.

  Chu Guang stepped forward and picked up the card.

  The light from the top seam of the aisle is sprinkled on the white card. Following the hexagonal pattern, you can see a metallic luster, but it is impossible to identify what material it is made of.

   There is no photo or name on the card, only two words that are not known as occupation or code are printed on it——

   "...Guards?"

  Chu Guang seemed to understand something.
