This Game Is Too Realistic

Early the next morning.

The caravan, which had rested all night, was packing its luggage and preparing to set off on the road.

According to Lister's plan, his caravan would continue to Red River Town, and at the same time separate a small team to return to Boulder City with light equipment.

Of course, the team returning to Boulder City was not completely empty-handed.

According to the contract between him and Chu Guang.

The team will bring 100 kilograms of spiritual leaves and 10 bolts of cloth woven from devil's silk.

A piece of cloth is a roll, about 100 meters long, and weighs just over 10 kilograms. It is mainly some backlog of inventory.

As for the spirit leaves, they are a specialty of the greenhouse site.

Some wastelanders like to use it to make refreshing spiritual water, or mix it with tobacco and roll it into cigarettes. However, this stuff is mildly addictive, and it can easily lead to dependence if used in large quantities.

Before the caravan set off, Chu Guang found Mole and Fang Chang who were fleeing in the canyon.

These two brothers are the players who understand him best among all players, or in other words, they are the players who have the strongest understanding of the version.

He needs two people to do something for him.

Only they are the most suitable for this task.

"I have two important tasks for you here."

When they heard this sentence, the two players were stunned for a moment, and then excited expressions appeared on their faces.

Hidden mission!

And it’s still an important task!

Thinking of this, Mole couldn't help but tremble with excitement, straightened his back and said.

"I am willing to serve you, respected manager!"

Sure enough, this game has a favorability setting!

Don’t forget his always attentiveness!

Fang Chang, who was standing nearby, was dumbfounded.

Good guy.

This damn girl is so lickable!

There was no time to despise the mole, and Fang Chang quickly added a sentence with a serious face for fear of falling behind.

"Me too, respected and great manager! In order to rebuild the glory of the People's Federation and the glory of 404, I am willing to go through fire and water for you, no matter what!"

Just licking an NPC.

It's not like he hasn't licked it before when playing other games.

As long as you can trigger the hidden mission, it's not shabby!

Chu Guang: "..."

Although he really wants players to roll up, he still hopes that they can roll up in a more useful place instead of giving him goosebumps.

After clearing his throat, Chu Guang decided to pretend he didn't hear anything and continued.

"Winter is over, and in order to carry out the next step, we need to strengthen communication with surrounding areas."

"The caravan we have made friends with plans to go to Boulder City and Red River Town. I plan to send a representative to inspect the local situation and understand the living standards and mental outlook of the survivors there. The most important thing is to understand their needs. "

To put it simply, it is to collect information and inspect the market.

Chu Guang did not completely believe in Liszt. Things could be left to capable people, but his eyes still had to be on him after all.

It just so happens that these two players are big guys who like to write strategies.

I believe you don’t need to give any hints. As long as you throw them over, they will definitely touch them all over.

Just as Chu Guang expected, after hearing his words, the eyes of the two little players wanted to shine.

Boulder City and Red River Town!

New map!

And he opened two at once!

Obviously, the game production team has completed the design of the new map, but it is not yet fully open, so they first found two people to test it.

The two people immediately guessed the intention of the plan, and they became even more excited.

"I'm going to Boulder City!" Fang Chang reacted the fastest and spoke first.

The mole was a little slow to react, but he came to his senses immediately.

"Gan, I also want to go to Boulder City!"

Anyone with a discerning eye can see that the merchants from Boulder City are obviously stronger than the merchants from Honghe Town.

After all, the caravan stationed at the door even uses modified prosthetics, and its style of painting looks like it came out of Cyber ​​2077.

On the other hand, the merchants in Honghe Town, although they came twice, the style of the people who came every time was just like that of Wild Cousin.

It’s clear who is richer!

Fang Chang looked at Mole and tried to bribe him to give in.

"Good brother, for 200 silver coins, how about you give me this opportunity?"

Mole: "Get out of here, at least 300 silver coins!"

Fang Chang: "250 silver coins, if not, let's roll or rock, paper, scissors. This is the fairest."

Mole said with a look of sorrow and anger: "You guy! Didn't you agree not to rob me next time? Are you willing to roll with me?"

Mainly because his face was too dark and he couldn't believe his luck.

Fang Chang coughed dryly.

"I was talking about an auction...I didn't say anything like this. Besides, I was the one who shouted first, okay? Logically speaking, you and I are the ones grabbing it."

Mole: "@#%!"

Chu Guang: "..."

These two people really treat themselves like air.

But this is quite reasonable.

After all, I often rely on my identity as an NPC to act stupid.

In the end, Mole weighed the pros and cons and finally chose 250 silver coins.

The probability of roll point and rock-paper-scissors is 50-50. If you lose, you will lose the money.

Besides, it’s not a bad idea to go to Honghe Town.

Although it is obvious that Boulder City is more developed, opportunities exist only in underdeveloped places. Obviously for a long time in the future, the focus of outpost trade will be outside Qingquan City, not around the Third Ring Road.

Seeing that the two of them had determined their respective tasks, Chu Guang looked at them and continued.

"I will arrange for a guard to follow you, act as your translator, and help you communicate with the locals."

"Remember, you represent the image of Shelter 404. I hope you will pay attention to your identity when you are outside and keep our mission in mind."

After listening to the manager's instructions, Fang Chang and Mole clasped their hands and said with serious expressions.

"Don't worry, Mr. Manager!"

"Please leave it to us!"

…

The caravan sets out on the road.

Fang Chang and Mole also followed and waved goodbye to the players at the south gate.

"Goodbye, brothers! Wait for our good news!"

"Don't worry, we will bring first-hand information to the forum!"

However, the players at the door did not appreciate it.

Especially seeing the proud expressions on the faces of these two people, the lemon in my mouth became even more sour.

"Gan! These two European emperors!"

"p! Shady story! It must be shady!"

"I don't care! If you don't choose me, I'm the shady one! Unless you let me go too!"

"I'm afraid there is some ulterior deal behind this."

Hearing these guys arranging themselves there, Mole on the run in the canyon couldn't help shouting.

"A shady thing, a hammer shady thing! Opportunities are reserved for those who are prepared. What do you know?"

Fang Chang couldn't help but say something.

"That's right! Do you know how hard it is for us to improve our favorability?"

Regardless of whether they are satisfied or not, after all, only two people have received this task.

Just like that, in the eyes of all the players with envy and hatred, the two little players followed the caravan and disappeared into the woods with proud faces.

After leaving the Wetland Park, the caravan divided into two groups. The large group continued to set off along the original route to Honghe Town, located in the east of Qingquan City.

The other team took the devil's silk and spiritual leaves purchased from the outpost and returned to Boulder City, where they purchased the equipment needed to start a factory and recruited technicians who could operate the equipment.

Getting further and further away from the park, Xu Shun, dressed in casual clothes, looked at Qian Lai walking next to him and asked.

"How long does it take to get to Boulder from here?"

Qian Lai said with a smile.

"It depends on how many people there are. If we are a caravan like ours, it will take three days to get there if we go slowly, but it may take two days if we go quickly."

He actually had to spend the night outside.

Xu Shun nodded thoughtfully.

He grew up in the northern suburbs and heard that Boulder City was very prosperous, but he had only heard about it. There are many alien species and predators on this road, and it is full of dangers. It is difficult for ordinary people to walk alone.

The guard next to him interjected.

"You have to be careful on the road. We were separated too far. We encountered predators when we came here. Although they didn't attack us, it's not easy to say when there are few people... We will bypass that area in a while."

Xu Shun said unexpectedly.

"Are there any more Marauders?"

Qian Lai said with a smile.

"They are just some minions hiding in the ruins. This situation is very common. Maybe some people were mercenaries or traders yesterday, but for some reason the next day, they decided to change to a more comfortable way of life."

The guard on the side also said.

"They are like cockroaches, they always appear when you least expect them, and you can't kill them all."

Hearing this, Xu Shun couldn't help tightening the rifle on his back.

Seeing his serious look, Qian Lai couldn't help but feel a little funny, so he joked.

"Brother, how old are you?"

"Seventeen."

"Seventeen? Then how much older do I have to be than you? I'll be twenty in a few months."

Xu Shun looked at the brother in surprise.

"I can't tell."

He thought this guy was as big as Ji Xiang...

"If you are like me, you have followed your boss everywhere since you were twelve years old, and you will look like an old man when you reach my age."

Qian Lai pointed at his weathered face and said helplessly.

"For example, if you look at our boss and just look at his appearance, can you guess that he is only in his early thirties?"

Xu Shun nodded as if understanding.

"I see."

"But our manager... looks quite young."

Qian Lai shook his head.

"Don't think so. You can't tell how old the blue coat in the shelter is just by looking at his face. Even though he looks like he is only twenty years old, he might actually be an old monster who has lived for more than a hundred years." indefinite."

Xu Shun: "Can it still be like this?!"

Qian Lai: "You go to too few places. You will know when you go out more."

Fang Chang, who was walking next to him, looked confused the whole time. He stared at v for a long time, but no subtitles popped up.

What on earth are these two talking about?

…

Shortly after the caravan set off, a group of fresh newbies finally waited for the time to unlock the game.

B3 floor of the shelter.

The square in front of the elevator was crowded with people, and there was a lot of noise and noise.

"Holy shit?! Is this really virtual reality?!"

"Awesome! I almost went to see a brain doctor, but I didn't expect it to be true!"

"Isn't this a dream? Isn't this a dream? Oh, oh, oh, if it's a dream, please don't wake me up!"

This light!

This wall!

And this realistic touch!

Many people have not recovered from the shock.

At this time, a player shouted in the square.

"Brothers, I am the Silver Sword! Where are my two brothers?"

Someone quickly answered him.

"The Silver Hand is here!"

Silver Sword stepped forward happily and held his hand.

"Good brother, have you seen the Silver Shield?"

Silver Hand shook his head: "I didn't see it. I don't know where the Silver Shield guy went. I searched for a long time and didn't see anyone with this ID."

Silver Sword said blankly: "Has he obtained the reservation qualification?"

Silver Hand: "I got it. I asked him specifically just now! After entering the game and calling for a long time, I didn't hear anyone answer."

At this moment, a voice suddenly came from the side.

"Are you two Silver Hands and Silver Swords?"

Looking back, I saw a man with short hair standing there.

With that mean smile, the two of them recognized him immediately as their good brother.

"Fuck, where the hell are you going?"

"I've been looking for you for a long time."

The man smiled shyly and said embarrassedly.

"Well, actually my ID is not called Silver Shield."

Silver Hand was stunned for a moment: "What's that called?"

Silver's father: "Silver's father."

Silverhand: "???"

Silver Sword: "Damn you! Didn't you agree to call it Silver Shield before registering your ID?"

Father Yin: "Hey, my son is good."

Silver Sword: "Bleach!"

Silver Hand: "Spicy next door!"

The entire hall on the b3 floor was filled with noisy sounds.

Since most of the spread of this game is word of mouth among various groups, many people know each other outside of the game.

As soon as the server was launched, everyone started recognizing relatives everywhere.

Standing next to the elevator, he touched his chin with his tail and nodded old-fashionedly.

"Oh, that's good. The newcomers in this class are very energetic!"

Sisi: "Awei, have you decided which one to choose?"

Tails: "Don't worry, don't worry, Tails decided to take another look!"

Sisi: "If you wait a little longer, the high-quality newcomers will be snatched away."

Tails: "Damn it, I can only choose the biggest one!"

Sisi: "...?"

Old players are all looking for candidates to "pass the fire". This is an old tradition in "Wasteland OL".

As for the newcomers, most of them are still confused.

Although PV and game CG have been released on the official website, the urban legend about "Wasteland OL" has always been a quite controversial topic.

It’s easy to understand if you think about it. If any company claims that it has mastered controllable nuclear fusion technology, and then releases a lot of ppts and staged several videos about controllable fusion power generation, it just won’t combine the generator set with it. Internet, I guess even individuals have to wonder if they are scammers.

The helmet is only effective when you wear it. Others can't even see the countdown when wearing it. Therefore, even those who have obtained the qualification for closed beta testing will have a hard time proving it to others in a simple way.

Everyone has different information, different values, and different perspectives on problems.

But does it matter?

Obviously not important.

If someone doubts a thing, someone will naturally believe it.

The many players standing here at this moment, as well as the preliminary players who filled out the reservation form, are all the ones who believe.

Even if it's just doubtful.

However, for them who stepped here, all doubts had disappeared in an instant.

The countdown to zero is like a key, opening a whole new world in front of them.

A door is opening to them.

Looking at his hands in disbelief, and then at the surrounding walls, Wang Haiyang stretched out his hand and knocked on the wall, with an expression on his face as if he was demented.

"I didn't lie to you, did I?"

A strange voice came from the side.

Wang Haiyang looked back and saw a thin man with a mechanical hand replacing his right arm standing there, looking at him with a smile.

Wang Haiyang was stunned for a moment.

Intuition allowed him to recognize this person's identity.

"Are you... Iwakaze?"

Kuangfeng coughed lightly.

"Don't call me this name in the game..."

Wang Haiyang reacted immediately and touched the back of his head in embarrassment.

"Sorry, this game is too realistic...I didn't even realize it was in a game."

Storm said.

"It's normal. Everyone was the same at the beginning. Your reaction was already relatively calm."

Wang Haiyang said doubtfully.

"How did you recognize me?"

"Habitual movements, expressions, and various aspects, such as the action you just scratched your head." Kuang Feng thought for a moment and said, "It's hard to describe this feeling in detail. Maybe it's intuition. I have 7 points of perception now."

Wang Haiyang said blankly: "Perception?"

Stormy Wind explained patiently.

"Wasteland OL has set 5 attributes, namely strength, agility, physique, intelligence and perception. Players' initial characters correspond to 5 sequences respectively, but there are also a few lucky people who can choose special characters, such as the one next to me. Just a stupid lizard."

Garbage Picking Level 99: "Gan! Stop calling me stupid! I already have 4 points of intelligence, okay?"

Kuangfeng nodded and continued to introduce him as a sample.

"The baseline value of attributes is 5, and 4 points of intelligence is equivalent to 80% of the average intelligence level of a normal adult male. This has nothing to do with IQ, it is purely the activity level of nerve cells."

Wang Haiyang said blankly: "How is this kind of thing reflected in the game?"

"It's hard to describe," Kuang Feng thought for a while and said, "Anyway, you should wait for the novice instructor to pass the opening animation. By the way, what is your ID?"

Upon hearing this question, Professor Wang Haiyang smiled sheepishly and coughed dryly.

"That, uh... lone wolf in the apocalypse."

Kuangfeng: "..."

Picking up trash level 99: "..."

Seeing the two people's reactions, the lone wolf brother suddenly became anxious.

"Is there anything wrong with this name? I play other games with the same name."

Kuangfeng sighed: "Nothing, it's a very contemporary name."

At first, looking at his hesitant look, I thought it was some kind of unspeakable ID, but I didn't expect this.

The garbage-picking level 99 also sighed.

"Yeah... I really miss it. It reminds me of the old days when I played Legend of Blood."

Lone Wolf: "???"

At this moment, Ye Shi suddenly came over.

"Honestly, what is your relationship with Doomsday Lonely Hero?"

Lone Wolf said with a blank look on his face.

"What's that?"

"It's nothing. This friend is relatively young and often says strange things. Don't take it to heart."

Kuangfeng coughed dryly, quickly changed the topic, looked at him and continued.

"Anyway, just wait for the cutscene. After the process is completed, I will tell you some basic settings and how to play the game."

Lone Wolf nodded excitedly.

"okay."

…

The cutscenes are short.

To sum it up simply, everyone is a shelter dweller sleeping underground, shouldering everyone's expectations and coming to the surface to complete the great cause of reviving the People's Federation.

Standing next to Lone Wolf, Kuangfeng continued.

"The background setting of the game is more sci-fi, but in most cases, you may have to fight using primitive methods."

"But all the battles that need to be fought have been fought recently. The content of the version is mainly about farming, which is when you come in handy."

The lone wolf looked dumbfounded.

"Holy crap, am I just being treated as a tool when I first entered the game? How can I help as a newbie?"

A smile appeared on Guangfeng's face.

"This is about the characteristics of this game. Level is not the only factor that determines strength, and the gameplay is not limited to upgrades. You can farm, do crafts, and even develop industry."

Lone Wolf was stunned: "Develop industry?!"

In the game?

Guang Feng nodded.

"Well, this is also the most special thing about this game. Designs that can be realized in reality can also be realized in the game."

Lone Wolf: "How could such a thing be done?!"

Guang Feng shook his head and said.

"I don't know. My understanding of this technology is no different from ordinary people. But according to the official website, they have adopted some kind of dream interference technology and used users' cognition to build an almost completely realistic physical system. .For example, if some players know what the acceleration of gravity is and have reached a consensus on it, then the acceleration of gravity in the game will be... at least that’s what they claim.”

Lone Wolf then asked: "What if there is a dispute?"

Fengfeng: "Maybe they will consult experts for verification, maybe treat it as a black box. They didn't explain much about the technical details of the game. To be honest, I am skeptical about some of the game production company's remarks... A lot of careful thinking The extremely scary place has proved another suspicion I had. However, unfounded suspicions are meaningless, and maybe there will be an answer after the game is released in public beta."

Lone Wolf didn't ask any more questions and nodded.

"Okay...anyway, is there anything I can do?"

Storm continued.

"First of all, you need to accept the task of passing on the fire from generation to generation. I will take you to level three and get v."

"This game basically has a certain self-protection ability after it reaches level 3. For intelligence, it may need to be level 5 or more. But if you want to experience the complete part of the game, you must first reach v."

Lone Wolf curiously asked: "What is v?"

Ye Shi, who was standing aside, answered quickly.

"To put it simply, it is your game menu, including the character interface and so on. After you reach the citizen level, you can buy it for a little money. Now it seems to have increased to 100 silver? But it doesn't matter. Now the mission income has also increased. , it’s not too arrogant, if you upgrade your contribution points to the citizen level, you can afford it!”

Damn it?

Do you have to spend money to buy the system interface of this game?

Lone Wolf looked confused.

This is too true...
