This game is too real.

Chapter 218 The Ninth Floor of the Greenhouse Ruins!And the first Awakener of the Intelligence Department of the Perception Department in the whole server!
"Our enemies will not routinely wait until the end of winter before strutting over to our trenches."

"They are predators, and they are best at sneak attacks. If it is quick, maybe after this blizzard is over, their army will march to the northern suburbs of Qingquan City."

"My judgment is... early January, maybe even on New Year's Day."

After inspecting the recruits of the guard, Chu Guang took Liu Ding, the wrench, and Vanus back to the guard's station in Changjiu Farm.

There is a bunker-like temporary command post here, covered with a thick layer of snow, and only one tunnel can be entered.

In the batch of supplies seized from the looters last time, there were a full hundred 100mm shells.

The total weight of these shells is 20 kg, including a 3 kg warhead, and the charge is a mixture of T'en T and RDX.

If this shot hits, its power will probably be quite astonishing.

Although I don't know how many howitzers they have in their hands, these shells alone are enough to make Chu Guang more vigilant.

These marauders are tough to deal with!
At present, Refuge No. 404 relies on the information obtained by the old buddies on the forum, as well as the continuous exploration of 30 life professional players with experience in chemical industry. Not very high.

It is still too difficult to develop reliable heavy support firepower before New Year's Day.What needs to be solved is not only the barrel problem, but also many problems including ballistics, and these need to rely more on experience in actual combat than theoretical knowledge.

It might be more practical to count on the unscrupulous rockets of the Mosquitoes than to count on heavy artillery in the war against the Bonechewers.

Spanner and Liu Ding subconsciously looked at each other, their expressions slightly dazed.

What is New Year's Day?
Although Vanus also didn't understand what New Year's Day was, his focus was not on such trivial issues, but on Chu Guang's prediction of the next round of the predator's offensive.

Staring at the paper map hanging on the wall of the temporary command post, Vanus pondered for a long time before speaking.

"If it were me, I would choose to launch the offensive in mid-January."

Chu Guang looked at him and asked.

"reason?"

Vanus said.

"This is out of careful consideration. The snow on the road will make it difficult for the truck to move, and the logistics pressure will be greater than imagined. As the front-line commander, I must first assume that you have evacuated all the survivors in the northern suburbs in advance. settlements, and built good enough fortifications, and fought us to the end with the determination to fight to the death."

"At that time, our troops will not be able to obtain any local resources, and can only rely on the supplies they carry to fight a tough battle that may be delayed for a long time."

His eyes were fixed on an abandoned urban area in the northeast, Vanus continued.

"I will first establish an operating base, deploy artillery, and then send mobile troops to use the advantages of vehicles to harass your position, guide the bombing of artillery, weaken your defense with multiple raids, and finally concentrate forces from multiple directions Attack at the same time."

Liu Ding and the wrench involuntarily held their breath.

If those marauders really do this, the battle will undoubtedly be more difficult than imagined.

Chu Guang nodded thoughtfully.

"That sounds like a good idea."

Of course, he never expected that the people of the Bonechewer tribe would launch a suicidal charge towards his position like the Bloody Hand clan, and then the players squatting in the trenches would use automatic weapons like cutting wheat harvest.

Those goblin-like creatures are very cunning, especially now that they have learned the tactics of the Legion - even if only a small part of it.

but……

It's a pity that they ran into themselves.

This consumption method of continuous attack may be useful to others, but it is simply a dream to deal with players who have one life for three days.

He only needs to guard the new industrial area located in the abandoned city and ensure the supply of weapons and equipment. Those looters will soon experience the nightmare of being dominated by undead.

When necessary, he can even abandon the big factory, break up the production equipment into pieces, and retreat into the endless ruins, and then the players will use their individual combat strength to start street battles with the predators in the city.

Noticing the not heavy expression on Chu Guang's face, Vanus slightly raised his eyebrows in a little surprise.

"It seems that you already have an idea?"

"That's it."

"I'm a little curious, can you let me know if it's convenient?"

Chu Guang smiled lightly.

"Anyway, it won't be many days, and you will naturally know when the time comes."

There are many methods he thought of, but the situation on the battlefield is changing rapidly, and he is not sure which plan he will adopt in the end.

After all, it also depends on which card the opponent plays.

Vanus was not asking, but just shrugged.

After all, his identity is just a prisoner of war.

If Chu Guang asks for his opinion, he will express his thoughts and provide suggestions for reference.But if Chu Guang didn't intend to let him know, he really shouldn't ask more questions from his standpoint.

It's just that Vanus is still curious, what is this man going to do?
The opponent has 100mm howitzers, and they don't know how many there are.

In addition, the number of those predators is more than 1000, the number of vehicles is unknown, and they have an absolute advantage in terms of equipment and troops.

They were not ordinary predators, and after the two previous fights, the man in front of him was obviously clear.

The odds are actually not high.

But his unmoved expression is really unpredictable.

At this moment, there was a knock on the door of the temporary command post.

After getting permission, a guard in a black coat walked in from the door, and gave a military salute with his right fist on his chest.

"report!"

Chu Guang said concisely.

"Say."

said the guard.

"The scouts we sent to the north to explore, found a patrol team of predators in Yuanxi Town, which is just north of Jiujiu Farm, suspected to be members of the Bonechewer tribe!"

After hearing the report, Chu Guang looked slightly surprised, and immediately looked at the map on the wall.

Yuanxi Town is about 20 kilometers away from Changjiu Farm, adjacent to the north side of Yumu District. In terms of administrative division, it belongs to the southernmost township under the jurisdiction of Xizhou City, and is close to XC District of TS City.

This distance is not very close, but it is definitely not far.

However, what puzzled Chu Guang was why those predators appeared in Yuanxi Town?

According to the marching route of those marauders, it is obvious that their station should be in the northeast of Qingquan City and south of TS City.

Is it...

They moved?
Vanus, who was staring at the map, gradually became serious.

"My lord, although I don't want to say it... But I'm afraid we have to prepare for the worst."

In the temporary command post, four pairs of eyes looked at him.

Chu Guang had vaguely guessed something, but he didn't speak, but waited for him to continue.

Vanus paused for a moment, took a deep breath, and let out a breath of white air slowly.

"Our army in the north direction is obviously not the same group as the looters in the southern suburbs of TS City."

"What you will face is probably not just a thousand-man team..."

"It's two."

……

【Day 14 of the Wartime Regulations】

After confirming the information on the VM, Lao Bai casually wiped off the mucus stuck to the steel armguard and the cilia from the moth's wings.

"The difficulty of attacking the B9 floor is unexpectedly low."

"After all, this is where the reactor is placed. There is no incubator, and the area is not very large." Fang Chang put away the mechanical compound bow in his hand and said casually.

Four days ago, his level reached LV4, becoming the first agility awakener in the whole server.

Just as Lao Bai guessed, his main attribute increased by 5 attribute points, and the remaining 4 secondary attributes increased by one point each.

With an agility of up to 17 points, he almost has three times the reaction speed of ordinary people, as well as dynamic vision.

And the skills he acquired are also very satisfying to him-similar to the bullet time in Max Payne!
This does not mean that he can become faster, but based on the bonus of the agility attribute, he can make everything around him play in slow motion when he is highly focused.

Maybe as long as the agility attribute is high enough, maybe one day he can see the trajectory of the bullet clearly.

In any case, for a shooter, this can be called a divine skill.

Praise for planning!

Since the bullet time was unlocked, although his teammates had no intuitive feeling, Fang Chang felt that he was invincible.

The task enters the finishing stage.

Carefully searching the dead corners on the B9 floor, Lao Bai used a short melee knife to clean up the devil moths that were not completely dead.

Ye Shi, who was walking behind, saw that he had no chance to shoot, so he said in a chatty tone.

"What do you think will happen on the B10 floor?"

Feng Feng, who was walking aside, thought for a while.

"I don't know, anyway, what is certain is that the devil moth's brood is there."

Ye Shi: "Will there be moths as big as mutants?"

Gust: "From the perspective of evolution, it is not realistic. The super-standard volume is not suitable for the survival of arthropods... At least it is the case with the oxygen content and gravity environment on the earth. However, this is not absolute. The wasteland is not A normal natural selection environment, let alone a game."

Speaking of this, Kuang Feng suddenly paused, and looked up to the front.

"But... this game is too real."

The group of people stopped, and in front of them was a closed gate.

From the sign on the door similar to the power room on the B3 floor, judging from the mark on the VM map, this should be the reactor.

Through a long and narrow transparent window, Gale could see the cylindrical reactor located in the room.

A reactor that has been in operation for two centuries and is still working.

Even in-game, it's pretty unbelievable.

From the looks of it, it shouldn't be boiling water.

"Is this a tokmak or a stellarator?" Ye Shi asked curiously.

Guafeng thought for a while, then shook his head.

"It doesn't look like... It looks ugly from the outside, even smaller than a nuclear fission reactor."

And much smaller!
Ye Shi chuckled.

"Maybe it's just that the operators simply don't want to make it up... I thought it would be a little cooler."

"This design actually makes sense. After all, in the pre-war society depicted in the game background, the penetration rate of controllable nuclear fusion has continuously replaced fossil fuels, and even replaced chemical batteries in some fields. Their understanding of energy technology has a great impact on For us, it is like a black box, and it is more reasonable to present it in a more concise way than we imagined."

Feng Feng was very curious about what kind of thinking the operator used, after all, it involved an area he was familiar with.

However, he is a rational person, and it is impossible to risk the lives of his teammates.

What's more, he doesn't have the ability to break it.

To destroy the first wall that can block neutron rays, at least hundreds of kilograms of explosives are needed.

This thing is not made of tofu.

The alloy door leading to the reaction chamber alone is at least half a meter thick, not to mention the walls, which are even part of the load-bearing structure.

Maybe if this layer is blown up, it may not be able to scrape off a layer of the reactor.

At this moment, Kuangfeng suddenly felt a slight tingling between his brows, and then a burning feeling spread to his whole body, making him frown involuntarily.

Ye Shi, who was standing on the side, seemed to have the same reaction, and let out an exaggerated scream, holding his right arm.

"My giao, my power of the king! That boiling feeling... is coming!"

Fang Chang glanced at him speechlessly.

"Can you be a little more normal?"

Stretching out his hand to support Ye Shi, Lao Bai noticed the state of the strong wind at the same time, was slightly taken aback, and his expression instantly beamed with joy.

"Good guy, we awakened two today!"

The first Intellect and Perception players in the entire server were born at the same time!

All members of the Ox and Horse Squad enter the Hall of Fame!
This achievement is simply invincible!

Fang Chang's face was also full of excitement, but right now they were in the moth's nest, obviously it was not the time to be distracted and happy.

"Exciting! Anyway, let's go back and save a file first."

It is foreseeable that today's forum will be lively again for a while.

At Fang Chang's suggestion, the team of cows and horses touched the door of the next floor, then left the ruins of the greenhouse and returned towards the outpost.

After escorting his teammates to the gate of the outpost, Lao Bai, who was standing under the concrete wall, suddenly stopped in his tracks.

"Before I go offline, I plan to go to the industrial area, you go back and save it first."

Ye Shi asked curiously.

"Industrial area? What are you doing there?"

Lao Bai said with a smile.

"The LD-47 has been used for a while, but I always feel that I can't take advantage of the strength department. I plan to go to the steel factory to see if I can order two pieces of equipment suitable for the strength department, so as to improve the firepower of our team. "

Ye Shi and Kuangfeng looked at each other.

Fang Chang understood what he meant, and became interested immediately.

"Let me go with you! Anyway, I have nothing to do after I go offline for a while."

Lao Bai smiled heartily.

"Okay, let's go!"

……

New industrial zone.

At the gate of No. 81 Iron and Steel Plant, Lao Bai and Fang Chang had just entered the door when they saw Midnight Killing Chicken discussing something with Suo Suo.

"I want a chainsaw, can I get it?"

"If I can get a hammer, where can I get you batteries?"

Facing Brother Suo's eyes, Midnight Killing Chicken still did not give up.

"It's okay to burn oil."

Hearing these light words, Brother Suo almost stopped spraying, and continued to torture his soul.

"Do you have a diesel engine? Do you have a diesel?"

It's ridiculous not to find a diesel engine in the whole wasteland.

He has had a lot of headaches for this matter these days.

Midnight Killing Chicken was slightly taken aback, he didn't expect it to be so troublesome, so he scratched the back of his head.

"Then... I'd better buy an ax."

"..."

Brother Suo looked helpless.

A hatchet with a wooden handle is only 10 silver coins, and this is after the price increase.

After deducting raw materials, labor costs, electricity costs, etc., the profit margin is only 10%, and you can earn 1 silver coin.

Selling an ax is better than selling a few more bullets!

"I sincerely suggest that you consider more modern equipment."

Just when he was about to find a reason to send Brother Chicken Killer away, he suddenly saw Lao Bai and Fang Chang at the door.

His eyes lit up immediately, and Brother Suo immediately threw the midnight slaughter chicken and walked towards the two of them.

"Hey, Brother Bai and Brother Fang Chang, why do you come here when you have time?"

These two are big guys!
It seems that the progress of the strategy of the greenhouse ruins has been pushed to the 8th floor of the basement recently?Or Tier 9?
Although the cattle and horse teams have never disclosed the specific number of rewards, they can guess according to the difficulty of the maze, and the rewards are at least 4 digits.

Seeing Brother Suo resolutely abandoning himself, he was taken aback at midnight.

Good guy.

Is it so real?

Looking at the old acquaintance walking towards him, Lao Bai said with a hearty smile.

"I'm going to make a piece of equipment, is there a more powerful one?"

"The powerful ones...what do you mean? We have hand grenades here, as well as imitation Iron Fist bazookas. They are very powerful!"

"I'm not talking about the kind of disposable explosives, what I mean is," Lao Bai tried to gesture with his hand, "Is there a gun with a larger caliber?"

While talking, Lao Bai's eyes suddenly fell on the unfinished quadruple cannon in the workshop behind Brother Suo.

Seeing this, Lao Bai couldn't move his eyes away. He immediately walked over and touched the thick and long barrel of the gun.

"Hey guy, it's 20mm, right?!"

Seeing that someone was interested in his work, Brother Suo suddenly smiled and said confidently.

"20mm quadruple anti-aircraft gun! Three kinds of warheads are available, we call it the air tearer, or 'ripper' for short!"

This name sounds domineering enough.

Lao Bai happily continued to ask.

"How much!"

Brother Suo was taken aback for a moment, coughed dryly and said.

"That's an order from an NPC... The price is 3000 silver for a cannon and 20 silver for an armor-piercing projectile. You can refer to it."

"Fuck?! 3000 silver?" Old Bai's eyes widened.

Just such a cannon, the price is equivalent to 1.5 sets of miners I-type exoskeleton!
And the price of the armor-piercing bullets is even more outrageous, one bullet is equivalent to 20 rounds of 7mm, and you can buy a Tekken bazooka for three rounds!
Although they have pushed the progress of 4 floors these days and even took down the most critical B9 floor, the money they earned cannot be wasted like this.

After learning the price, Lao Bai immediately dismissed the idea of ​​buying one, and was ashamed to ask if it could be cheaper.

Seeing the expression on Lao Bai's face, Fang Chang's heart moved slightly, he walked up to stare at the receiver for a while, and then suddenly said.

"Why is this machine gun so expensive?"

Just at this time, Brother Levin, another factory manager, came out of the workshop next to him.

Hearing Fang Chang's question, he answered casually.

"It's said to be a gun, so do you still need to ask? The receiver in front of you alone costs at least 2000 silver, not to mention the barrel and other parts in front of it."

Fang Chang said thoughtfully.

"Then what if we need a... single-shot machine gun? It doesn't need such a complicated receiver, and it can even be changed to a rotary lock and manual loading of bullets."

Brother Suo and Brother Levin were stunned at the same time.

"Changed to a rotary lock...bolt?"

"Manual loading?"

Seeing that the two of them didn't seem to understand what he meant, Fang Chang continued.

"What I just described may not be accurate. To put it simply, it is to remove the fully automatic mode of this machine gun and make a weapon similar to a bolt-action rifle. It can be easily held in the hand and placed on the ground— —”

"I see what you mean. Is it right to omit the buffer and the repeating receiver?"

Brother Levin interrupted Fang Chang, and touched his chin with interest.

"But that kind of gun will be very heavy, right? And the recoil is probably not small. I guess it needs a fixed tripod... Are you sure it will come in handy?"

After all, this thing is a cannon, not a gun.

If the shock absorber and cushioning device are cut off and made into a weapon that can be carried on the shoulder and fired, the shooter's shoulder will be destroyed if one shot is fired.

Unless the length of the shell is shortened and made into the size of that bullet.

But in that case, the caliber of 20mm is a bit redundant, and it has to be changed to 12mm.

However, after hearing Brother Levin's concerns, Fang Chang and Lao Bai looked at each other, with meaningful smiles on their faces.

It's probably a bit difficult for the average person.

But are they normal people?
"The bipod and butt can help me install one, and the fixed tripod is unnecessary."

Lao Bai tapped the welded breastplate of the exoskeleton with his fist, a smile full of security appeared on his face.

"Don't worry, I can handle it!"
