This Game Is Too Realistic

Cow and Horse Club Group.

Today is as lively as ever.

Ever since Ye Shi and Kuang Feng became the first perception and intelligence players respectively in "Wasteland OL", the name of the Niu Ma Team has become completely famous on the forum.

Some people on the forum got the group account out of nowhere, and now people are joining the group every day.

In order to prevent some weird people from coming in, and to prevent anyone from harassing A Guang, the group leader Lao Bai simply closed the application to join the group.

Looking at the posts on the forum, it is said that two more awakened powerhouses were born on the server today.

And they are all in the strength department.

One of the unlocked talents is [Berserker], which converts half of intelligence into strength attribute, and the other is [Fighting Enthusiasm], which has "agility and physique +10%". Both talents need to be activated actively and last for 1 to 2 minutes. The CD is not very long.

Now the entire gossip section is clamoring for the official to open a channel for re-selecting the genetic sequence, preferably also to open the function of modifying gender.

However, the officials didn't seem to want to pay attention, and the planner A Guang didn't bubbling up during the whole process.

Since the topic on the forum was totally unavailable, everyone came to the group chat.

There is a mosquito in WC: "Hey, I envy you for leveling up so quickly."

Quit smoking: "Hahaha, Brother Mosquito, let's book together. It will be so happy in the tunnel! I'm already LV5!"

There are really mosquitoes in WC: "Fuck, I'm already at level 5 even after quitting smoking!"

Quit smoking: "What do you mean, even I am LV5! I have been in the game for more than a month, okay! (angry)"

There are mosquitoes in WC: "Tsk."

If he hadn't entered the game too early and didn't know much about the gameplay, and the brainless scholar chose the agility system, he would definitely be the second person to awaken in the intelligence system in the server!

But he is not the most unlucky. The real unlucky ones are the two directors of the No. 81 Steel Plant next door.

When these two brothers entered the game, they heard that their father was in the power department, so they chose power without any hesitation. As a result, they are now even more confused and have less chance to pick up a hammer and strike iron.

Scrambled Eggs with Tomatoes: "Time flies so fast. Before you know it, we have been in beta testing for almost three months?"

Fang Chang: "The novice stage of this game is indeed a bit long. It took three months to reach LV10. I wonder if the difficulty will be adjusted after the closed beta."

Ye Shi: "What do you think the full level is?"

Fang Chang: "You know, the official has never mentioned the level cap, but I feel that there may be a hurdle at level 40 or 50, and then it will be gradually released according to the progress of the expansion pack, probably similar to WOW."

Lao Bai: "I think you think too much. At this speed, whether you can reach level 40 by this time next year is a question!"

After level ten, Lao Bai felt that the difficulty of upgrading had obviously increased a lot.

When I was at a low level before, I could see a significant improvement in the tree-cutting progress bar. Now I just add proficiency to tree-cutting, and the progress bar remains unchanged. I don’t know if it has increased.

This was much more difficult than the MM he had played before!

Remembering that the fried eggs with tomatoes had also awakened a few days ago, Lao Bai continued to pick out the words.

"By the way, Brother Scrambled Egg, what is the talent you have unlocked?"

Scrambled Eggs with Tomatoes: “Balanced.”

Lao Bai: "Balance?"

Scrambled Eggs with Tomatoes: "Yes, the name is Balance. The effect is to convert half of the body's physique into strength within one to two minutes."

Ye Shi: "What the fuck?! Are you so awesome?!"

Kuangfeng: "It can be said to be a magical skill..."

Convert half of your constitution into strength.

Wouldn’t it be possible to carry it and output it at the same time? !

If the Constitution system could produce this skill, the strength system's battlefield dominance after level 10 would be at least half divided by the Constitution system!

After all, the little defense provided by the strength attribute is really pitiful.

At medium and long distances, the impact of strength attributes on DPS is mainly reflected in the control of weapons and the distance of thrown objects.

Unless the distance is reduced to the extreme, in most cases, the damage bonus provided by the strength attribute is diminishing at the margin!

Unless there is equipment that can better demonstrate the value of the power system.

Such as the loyal "golden toilet", or a chain saw gun...

On the other hand, in the constitution system, after the attribute point exceeds 10, even if it is not as exaggerated as the "breathing method" in FPS games, the effect of quickly stopping bleeding after being shot is very useful.

If you don't hit the vital point, you can at least carry two more shots!

After awakening, I can even save the bandage!

Scrambled Eggs with Tomatoes: "What a hammer! My 'regeneration of severed limbs' is a magical skill, right? Even if your arm falls off, it can grow back!"

Fang Chang: “Awesome!”

Kuangfeng: "Isn't this the skill of a foreign species?!"

Irena is not in the Cow Horse Club group, but she and the people in the group are familiar with each other in the game, and occasionally form teams together.

Especially on the forum, he and Ye Shi often exchange funny memes.

Everyone was envious for a while when they heard that he had actually unlocked the "no last hit" passive.

Kuangfeng: "I feel that the spring of the intelligence department has not yet arrived, but the spring of the physical department is coming. (Sigh)"

Quit smoking: "Hey, the physique system is ecstatic! (Baring teeth)"

Ye Shi: "This is very unreasonable. I thought I would unlock the Rat Man's 'Iron Stomach', but I didn't expect to unlock the regeneration of bears and lizards. (Funny)"

WC is really a mosquito: "Speaking of Ye Shi and Guang Feng, have you tried your talents? Are they useful?"

Ye Shi: "I tried it, and it feels normal. A Guang said that the talents I unlocked are pretty good, but I don't feel anything at all. (Helpless)"

The gift he received was "murderous intuition".

According to the description of the talent, it is a passive trigger and can feel the subjective killing intention at the conscious level.

And the stronger the killing intention, the stronger the feeling!

Different from the perception that is mediated by light, sound, smell, vibration and other factors, this kind of perception does not seem to need to borrow material media, but directly reads the murderous intention at the conscious level in some unknown way.

Brain waves?

Heart rate?

Or some kind of unknown "field"?

There is no specific scientific explanation given in the talent description. Maybe the operator himself doesn't know how to compile it.

Putting aside these minor issues, this talent actually has a big problem, that is, it is severely attenuated by distance!

The maximum triggering range in open areas is 800 meters to 1 kilometer, and in indoor environments, the maximum capture range may only be a three- or four-story house.

To be honest, this distance is somewhat useless for the perception system.

After all, before Ye Shi had awakened, he had relied on the bonus of his perception attribute to capture the faint reflection of a sniper mirror 1 kilometer away.

According to Fang Chang's analysis, the real function of this murderous instinct should be to guard against sneak attacks.

For example, when they were at the ecological experimental base before, with Ye Shi's perception, they completely failed to notice the "high agility unit" - the Death Claw lurking in the forest.

And if you have an intuition of murderous intent, you may be able to detect it the moment you are targeted.

But thinking about it on the other hand, if the other party restrains their killing intent, or doesn't notice them at all, then this talent may be useless.

Overall, this talent is still useful.

But the usefulness is not as great as imagined!

Guangfeng: "Mine is almost the same...it's called overclocking, and the effect is probably similar to Lao Bai's intelligence version, which gets a 150%~200% brain work efficiency bonus. The duration is slightly longer, about 30 seconds."

To be honest, this talent is probably even more useless than Ye Shi's "murderous intuition".

At least for the current version of the intelligence system, what is lacking is not attributes at all, but the ability to convert attributes into damage.

For example, the manipulator is a tool that "can convert intelligence attributes into DPS", but the output power of the manipulator has a limit after all, especially after awakening, this point is particularly obvious.

When the intelligence attribute is below 10, each increase in the attribute point can increase the maximum working efficiency of the robot by 10%, making it more coordinated with the muscles and allowing for more precise control. But when the intelligence attribute exceeds 10, the effect of improvement is minimal.

Kuangfeng's own analysis is that at this time, two more robotic arms should be installed, or a third arm should be implanted, or even a multifunctional arm, like "Doctor Octopus".

Another idea is to use neural connection equipment to operate drones or ground unmanned vehicles in multi-threads, turning one's own brain into a "drone hive" that controls the drone group.

However, there is a prerequisite for taking these two paths, and that is that these two items can be purchased on the shelves of the NPC store.

This is so difficult!

Quit smoking: "Damn, intelligence bonus? That's a bit cheating..."

Kuangfeng: "It can't be completely considered a cheat. Maybe the usage needs to be developed a little."

"..."

Looking through the chat records in the group, Chu Guang silently collected the experiences summarized by the young players in a text document.

Although his background can see the skills of each player, all he can see is panel data. The specific situation still depends on the evaluation testimonials of the players.

"... After awakening, the physical system may enter a strong period. Talents focus on strengthening survivability, and the types of talents are richer than other systems."

However, this sequence is somewhat dependent on talent, and not everyone can master the magical skill of "Balance".

In addition, even after the intelligence system has been awakened, its combat effectiveness still has not been significantly improved.

It seems that this sequence is not friendly to newcomers.

It's okay to take the lifestyle profession route, but it might be a waste of money to take the combat profession route and rely too much on external aids.

"Xiaoqi."

Following Chu Guang's call, Xiao Qi's voice floated from the side.

"Here you are, Master."

Chu Guang marked the document and leaned back in his chair.

"Please help me sort out the contents in the document and update it to the official website's setting set."

"There will be 300 newcomers in the Alpha 1.0 version, and this information should be able to provide them with some help."

After listening to Chu Guang's instructions, Xiao Qi said enthusiastically.

"No problem, feel free to leave it to Xiaoqi!"

As soon as he finished speaking, a cute little Kelly popped up on the table and gave him a thumbs up to cheer him up.

Although 90% of it was an emoticon stolen from the forum, Chu Guang couldn't help but smile, feeling that the fatigue from the day's work had been dissipated a lot.

Turning off the emoticons, Chu Guangzheng was planning to edit the copywriting for the New Year's Day event.

At this moment, footsteps were heard outside the office.

After knocking on the door twice, Dr. Yin Fang opened the door and walked in.

He held a round silver-white earphone in his hand. The casing looked like aluminum alloy. It was not too heavy and the size was small. After wearing it, it could cover half of his ears.

There is a camera on the front of the headset, which is perpendicular to the hanging ear. It can just face the front after putting it on.

If you want to take a photo, just press the button on the side of the headset. If you want to take a video, press and hold for two seconds, and press again to turn it off.

Putting the headphones on Chu Guang's desk, Dr. Yin Fang continued.

"I've made the earphones you want for you. As you said, on top of the two functions of video and photo taking, it also has a communication function."

"However, I have to remind you that VM...that is, the vital sign monitor has a wide signal transmission and reception range, even up to twenty kilometers, but the bandwidth for information transmission is not very large. Text and images are fine. , if you want to transmit audio or even video, you may also have to prepare a portable radio for it."

Chu Guang tried to understand this sentence.

To put it simply, the headset is matched with the VM, and the communication chip, signal transmitter and other components on the VM are borrowed, so it can be made so compact.

However, after all, VM is just a self-rescue tool for the wearer to be found by search and rescue personnel. Stability and reliability are the first factors, which makes it not suitable as a tool for large-scale data transmission over long distances.

With the help of V's signal transmitter, it is possible to use this headset to communicate between teams. It is also possible to barely communicate with an outpost more than ten kilometers away, but it is still a bit difficult to start a "live broadcast".

Unless it is very close to the signal tower, or the team is equipped with a mobile radio with stronger signal transmission and reception capabilities and a more professional one.

It is not difficult to solve this problem. Whether it is a signal tower or a mobile radio, if you do not deliberately pursue high integration, lightness and compactness, even using relatively "original" radio equipment is no problem.

Not just a mobile radio station, Chu Guang also plans to build another signal tower in Jiujiu Farm to cover the north of Yumu District and provide information services for players exploring further areas.

After picking up the headphones on the table and examining them for a moment, Chu Guang looked at Yin Fang and asked.

"Is this the only one?"

"Five in total."

Yin Fang took out four more headphones from his pocket, placed them on the table, and sighed softly.

"I have transferred the design drawings to your computer, including the portable radio. You can find someone to copy it. It is not difficult... So please, don't trouble me to do this kind of thing again. There is a lot of data that needs to be processed. , and that robot, I’m almost overwhelmed.”

Although he understood that the scientific expedition team had a heavy task, he was the only one in the shelter who knew how to handle those complicated carbon-based circuit boards.

Chu Guang looked at him with a helpless expression and said.

"I try my best."

After Yin Fang left, Chu Guang looked at the drawings he sent to him. The contents were very detailed.

Including where to collect the required materials, including how to process those collected materials, and how to assemble them together.

Chu Guang plans to find a few survivors who understand radio and try to imitate a few sets according to the steps on the drawing. When the time comes, they will be sent to the team leaders on the front line to facilitate unified command.

After writing the plan in his work diary, Chu Guang continued editing the copywriting for the New Year's Day event.

[The first New Year celebration event of "Wasteland OL"! 】

[Explanation: New Year’s Day is an important holiday in the wasteland! In order to celebrate another year of living and pray for good luck in the coming year, scavengers in the wasteland often go out to forage a week in advance to search for ingredients for the New Year's Eve dinner!

What magical delicacies will be included in the recipes for New Year’s Eve this year? What magical animals will be eaten to extinction next year?

The manager has prepared a mysterious gift for all residents who participate in the event. If you participate, you will earn it!

In addition, the winner of the competition will also receive the glorious title of "Wasteland Gourmet"! And be inducted into the Hall of Fame!

The manager here reminds everyone again that safety always comes first!

No matter what, be sure not to eat up your stomach!

Unless you want to miss this celebration!

】

[Event start date: December 25, 211, Wasteland Era to January 1, 212 Wasteland Era]

[Requirement: Use ingredients that are easily available in the wasteland to make simple and delicious food. 】

After reading the event planning plan from beginning to end, Chu Guang showed a satisfied expression on his face.

good!

The only fly in the ointment is that such an important holiday event cannot be used to monetize money.

If you add an activity krypton gold bar to this, it will be exactly the same as the game of Goose Factory and Pig Factory!

In order to prevent players from committing suicide and causing non-combat attrition, Chu Guang decided to appoint Crow Crow as a food taster after careful consideration.

I believe that the helpful Boss Crow will be happy to take on this task.

"This way everything is foolproof!"

The day after tomorrow is the 25th.

After completing the final revision of the event plan, Chu Guang clicked twice with the mouse and set the sending time for tomorrow evening. Then he yawned, stretched, and went back to the room to sleep.

…

Perhaps because he had been working too hard recently, Chu Guang had a long dream at night.

However, this dream could not be considered a nightmare, at most it was a bit bizarre.

The person chasing him for DNA changed from Heya carrying a needle to Boss Xia.

After waking up, Chu Guang was sweating all over his body. He waited until the peak time for players to go offline before getting up and going to the B3 floor.

Medical laboratory.

The silver-haired Miss Heya is observing the sliced ​​specimens collected by the players.

Seeing Chu Guang coming, she immediately stopped what she was doing, skillfully opened the scanning bed next to her, and patted the pillow.

"Come on, lie down here."

Perhaps because he was observing the specimen a second ago, Chu Guang always felt that the way she looked at him was a little "naked".

However, with Xiao Qi here, Chu Guang was not worried that anyone in this shelter could hurt him.

Seeing the sample lying on the scanning bed obediently, Heya walked excitedly to the terminal at the bedside and pressed a few buttons on the touch screen.

With a slight electric sound, the scanning equipment quickly started working.

After waiting for a while, the sorted attribute panel appeared in front of Chu Guang.

【

ID: Chu Guang

Gene Sequence: Manager (Phase 2)

Level: LV.14→LV.15

——Basic attributes——

Strength: 17

Agility: 11

Constitution: 15→16

Perception: 12

Intelligence: 14

】

Perhaps because of his recent training, his level has been raised by another level, and he is now LV15.

"I wonder if I will awaken again when I reach LV20."

Chu Guang's eyes stayed on the "second stage" suffix in parentheses behind the gene sequence.

LV1 is the first stage, LV10 is the second stage, and by the same reasoning, the third stage should be LV20?

In addition, although he still has not figured out the rules for upgrading the manager sequence, Chu Guang can clearly feel that upgrading is becoming increasingly difficult.

"Incredible... Your body's various numerical values ​​are far beyond the scope of normal people. How on earth did you do this?!"

Sitting in front of the terminal at the head of the scanning bed, Heya looked at Chu Guang in disbelief, with deep interest written all over her face.

Chu Guang was not surprised by this guy's fuss.

He stood up from the bed and straightened his collar before he replied casually.

"I want to know too, how about you research it for me?"

Heya nodded and said.

"No problem, but before that...I have something here that might interest you."

Chu Guang cast a questioning look at her.

"what?"

"Research on heterogeneous species of myxomycetes..."

With that said, Heya took a tablet modified from VM from the side and turned it towards Chu Guang.

"According to the slice samples provided by your 'players', my previous guesses have been confirmed. Many slime mold variants, including gnawers, crawlers, martyrs, and tyrants, are not just the offspring of mutant slime molds. Entities, and all their physiological phenomena and biological behaviors such as their form, prey, etc., are actually imitations of us."

Chu Guang raised his eyebrows slightly.

"us?"

"Humans, but not limited to humans, even... machines."

Heya nodded slightly, paused for a moment, and then continued.

"For example, the Tyrant... I found a form in its body that is highly similar to that of the Corpse Gnawer, and outside it is another completely different layer of hardened fruiting body structure. And this also leads to the fact that even if its outer fruiting body is highly destructible Up to 90 percent of the time, it continues to hunt and use the organic matter gained from its prey to release spores, spread the slime mold, and slowly repair damaged fruiting bodies."

"Doesn't this sound surprising?"

Seeing the surprised light gradually showing on her face, Heya continued to talk about her amazing discovery with great joy.

"It's imitating us. Although the imitation is very poor, it can't be said to be completely useless. It feels like...well."

After frowning and thinking hard for a while, Heya seemed to be thinking about how to describe her discovery.

However, Chu Guang understood.

His Adam's apple moved slightly, and he tried to ask.

"...It's like putting a biomass exoskeleton or powered armor on the outside of the Gnawer?"

Heya's eyes lit up, she snapped her fingers and said.

"Yes, that's what it feels like! Isn't it amazing? No wonder those people are always clamoring to go out. The world outside is simply incredible..."

Heya was still gushing excitedly.

However, people's joys and sorrows are not the same. Chu Guang could not understand her joy at discovering new species at all, and even saw a slight headache.

The self-repairing biomass armor, and the amazing mimicking ability displayed by those slime molds... What kind of monster is this?

"Is there any way to turn the fruiting bodies of those slime molds into something edible?" Chu Guang interrupted Heya's rambling and looked at her seriously and asked.

Heya was stunned for a moment and looked at him in confusion.

"Something you can eat? Why would you eat that kind of thing..."

Chu Guang sighed softly.

"Because I really can't think of a better way."

(The weather is getting colder, and I occasionally catch a cold. There is only one update today, and there will be thousands more tomorrow... I would like to say sorry to the brothers who are waiting for updates, I am really sorry T.T.

New plot, new chapter, I have to think about it)
