This game is too real.

Chapter 339 Even the Emperor Ou has his moments

"Damn it! Why is it a second-hand product?!"

The military camp near Dawn City, next to the arsenal.

Commander Quanshui finally saw the "first prize" he had drawn, and was simply dumbfounded on the spot.

The thick gun barrel exudes a cold light.

But no matter how you look at it, it looks like it has been touched up.

Not just the barrel, but other parts of the exoskeleton as well.Although it has been repaired, obvious bullet marks can still be seen on the jet-black exoskeleton.

Among them, the battery module and the ammunition rack have obviously been replaced, and the helmet is completely wrong. It is estimated that it was remade with aluminum alloy.

Good guy!
Not just second-hand.

It's still a battle-damaged version that has been overhauled!

Realizing this, the good mood of spring water disappeared instantly.

The only thing that gave him some comfort was that the 120mm mortar and the automatic loading system were still working.Fortunately, otherwise, he would have to bring a follower to help reload the bomb.

That's like taking off your pants and farting.

Seeing the crying expression on Brother Quanshui's face, and the little players next to him who were about to take a breath of European energy, they burst out laughing instantly.

"Hahahaha!"

"Laugh!"

"I feel sorry for Brother Shui, but I still didn't dodge this head-on attack."

"Wooooow, thank you for planning! Finally cut this dog thing!"

"#%@&!"

Brother Quanshui's face was flushed with anger, and he was cursing and grinning. The battlefield atmosphere group and Lao Hei, who were suppressed from laughing and internally injured, went to the forest to test guns.

Although the predators in Xizhou City have been dealt with, there are still a large number of alien species roaming in the forest.

These xenomorphs reproduce extremely quickly and may spread from other regions.

Usually, when there are many people, these alien species will hardly approach, and they will even take the initiative to hide away.

However, once they find a single person, they will approach them eagerly, waiting for an opportunity to strike.

The First Corps and the Second Corps will patrol regularly to prevent aliens from attacking survivors on the construction site, as well as lumberjacks who cut trees.

But it is obviously not enough to rely on two corps to protect the safety of 6000 people.

Early this morning, the quartermaster released a large number of hunting missions, almost including all the possible alien species in the surrounding areas of Dawn City.

Including monsters, myriads, mutant brown bears, death claws, split claw crabs, warship shrimps, black water snakes and more.

On the one hand, they weaken their populations through hunting.

On the one hand, you can also get some game to improve everyone's food.

One of the greatest contributions of the new alliance to the wasteland is probably the way of cooking from other worlds.

Many alien species that were inedible or unpalatable in the past have now become delicious.

You can still find some wild game near Dawn City.

On the other side of Dawn City, the larger alien species are almost invisible.

The three walked in the woods for a while, and I, the darkest, stopped suddenly, and raised my right hand to signal my teammates to stop.

Commander Quanshui said excitedly when he saw this.

"what's the situation?"

I closed my eyes the darkest and frowned, after waiting for a while, I whispered.

"It's about 500 meters away from us...it should be a bit to the east, and it should be a monster."

Commander Quanshui couldn't help complaining.

"What should it mean? You are already awakened. Can't the report be more accurate?"

"Damn! I'm not a radar!" I complained in a low voice.

Commander Quanshui looked at the battlefield atmosphere group next to him.

"Battlefield guy, go and have a look, remember not to do anything first, I'll cover the barrage for a round before you do it."

The battlefield atmosphere group was speechless.

"It's still covered by bullet screens, and it's just a monster. Does it need to be fired?"

Can the money for the mission earn back the shells?
120mm mortar shells are more expensive than 88mm.

"You don't understand! This is called being cautious!" Commander Springs said eloquently.

The battlefield atmosphere team rolled their eyes, and went forward to explore the way with a rifle in hand.

Commander Quanshui supported the ground with both hands, the support column was driven into the ground, his buttocks were pushed back, and the gun barrel was erected high.

I watched from the side most black, with a strange expression on my face.

I don't know if it's his illusion, but he always thinks this thing looks like a water arrow turtle.

It doesn't matter if you think about it, his smile is already low, and he almost didn't laugh out loud.

"Pfft—hahaha..."

Commander Quanshui ignored him and kept his eyes on the vm on the ground.

After a short wait, a line of words was sent on the screen.

Battlefield atmosphere group: [It's a monster, and it's still an adult, it looks like it weighs six to seven hundred kilograms. 】

At the same time as the message was sent, the monster's coordinates were also marked on the map.

Seeing the news, Commander Quanshui regained his spirits immediately, moved the barrel behind his back, and talked to himself excitedly.

"North by east 32 degrees, straight-line distance 671 meters—fire!"

As soon as the voice fell, the thick and long gun barrel made a bang, and the thick shell shot up high and fell heavily again.

One shot was endless, and before the sound of the explosion came, Brother Quanshui followed up with two more shots.

"boom--!!"

The shells hit the ground, three heavy cannon blasts were fired, and the roaring flames bloomed in the forest.

Before the monster realized what happened, it was swallowed by the fragments and flames of the explosion.

"Fuck..." I was the darkest, with a surprised expression on my face.

From a distance of 500 meters, although he couldn't see the explosion, he could clearly feel that the entire nearby forest was disturbed by the explosion...

Feeling the tremor of the earth and the hot wind blowing slowly, Commander Spring felt excited.

This power!
Simply blown away!

"The whole drone is fine! By the way, I am an intelligence department, why the hell forgot to bring a drone out!"

Curses came from the communication channel.

"... Fuck! Can you say something before you fire? Fortunately, I hid quickly, and almost disappeared with me!"

Commander Quanshui: "Hahahaha! Good brother, is this equipment awesome? Wait for me for a while, I'll come over and check the killing radius."

Battlefield atmosphere group: "??? Are you listening to me?"

Put away the fixed piles driven into the ground.

The spring guy picked up the VM on the ground, and walked towards the bombardment coordinates with an excited expression on his face.

Judging from the shrapnel stuck in the surrounding trees, the killing radius of this shell was nearly 30 meters!
The monster near the center of the explosion not only lost an arm, but was shot into a sieve by the shrapnel, and couldn't die anymore!
The battlefield atmosphere team went up to take a look, and found that they didn't even make up the knife.

Smacking his tongue, he couldn't help but feel a little envy in addition to being surprised.

This power is really nothing to say!

……

While the three little players were testing new equipment in the forest, the delegation from Camp 101, who was leaving the southern outskirts of Xizhou City, happened to hear the sound of an explosion in the forest.

"What was that sound just now?"

The old man in his fifties raised his head with a trace of surprise on his face.

His name is Butan, he is an environmental engineer, and water conservancy facilities are also within his professional scope.

He immediately applied to join the delegation after hearing that the New Alliance planned to build a dam in the Fourth New District to control the flooded Xizhou Lake.

If the problem of flooding of Xizhou Lake can be solved, the large black soil on the northeast side of Xizhou Lake can be reclaimed into fertile fields.

He had had this idea a long time ago.

However, it is a pity that there were hundreds of large and small survivor communities in Xizhou City at that time, and there was no way to unite together.

Later, when the Bonechewer tribe came here, the matter was completely shelved.

Now Xizhou has finally welcomed a visionary leader, and the hero has the same vision and set his sights on the flooded Xizhou Lake. He is not to mention how happy he is.

"It sounds like an explosion..." Another electrical engineer named Yuan Feng frowned.

"explode?"

"Isn't the war over?"

This kind of people in the delegation was in a commotion and exchanged surprised glances.

Seeing this, Lu Bei hurriedly stepped forward to appease everyone.

"Don't worry, it may be our soldiers...or hunters hunting. Although the predators have been wiped out, there are still a lot of alien species active nearby! But don't worry, our soldiers will do their best to protect yours Safety!"

Stretching his neck and looking south, Pai asked curiously.

"Why do you use guns for hunting? Shouldn't you use shotguns?"

Lu Bei scratched his head, not knowing how to answer this question.

Pai continued excitedly.

"Can I go take a look?"

"No." Before Lu Bei could speak, Butan who was standing next to him immediately reprimanded in a low voice, "The forest is too dangerous, and we're not here for an outing."

"Okay... I see." Pai stuck out her tongue and replied with a drawn out voice.

The person in the white cloak standing aside did not speak from the beginning to the end.The shadow under the brim of the hat covered its facial features, and its gender could not be seen without undulating lines.

Fang Chang, who was walking beside the team, has been observing this special NPC.

This NPC gave him an abnormal feeling.

Unlike the rest of the delegation.

He saw with his own eyes that this guy came out of that door.

At this time, Ye Shi who was standing aside suddenly spoke.

"I feel like it might not be human."

Kuang Feng: "...It's a good thing it can't understand what you said."

Lao Bai nodded in deep agreement: "I used to think that the language barrier was a trouble, but now that I think about it, it's because of the language barrier in the settings, otherwise there will be a lot of trouble."

Fang Chang: "Indeed."

The more realistic the AI, the smaller the mind, but most players have no clue about their own hilarity.

Culture is like a photo, there is nothing wrong with a little filter, hello, I am good, good for everyone.

Ye Shi: "Hey, I'll just say it casually... You guys are too careful with NPCs!"

"No way," Fang Chang sighed, and said with a sad expression, "Who wants this game to be so realistic? Our happiness for the rest of our lives depends on it."

Lao Bai made a helpless expression: "...Let's not talk about happiness or not, it's uncomfortable enough to lose favorability if you fail the hidden mission."

Sequence level means combat power, and contribution level means social status. However, veteran players who have played for a while know that both are just appearances. The biggest variable in this game is actually the hidden "goodwill".

This favorability can be understood as a kind of "recognition".

Especially camp leaders, if they have a high degree of favorability, they can always trigger some tasks related to the main storyline.

The benefits of these tasks are often far more than conventional tasks.

So why do so many people add a bunch of titles to managers?Changing tricks to flatter?Is it because you are free?
of course not!

Games are not real people, let alone make money, not shabby!
A group of people were talking, and a group of people came in front of them.

I saw a blue power armor, surrounded by a dozen soldiers of the guards, walking towards them.

Seeing the manager, Lu Bei's eyes lit up immediately, and he greeted him excitedly.

"Master Manager!"

Since participating in the airborne operation, he has been training the recruits of the Third Corps behind the enemy lines. After the war, he took Wang Zhong to Camp No. 101 without stopping.

Now that the mission is over, he can finally return to his lord's side.

Seeing this young man with loyalty written all over his face, Chu Guang nodded with a smile as he unbuttoned his helmet, and then looked at the representatives of No. 101.

There are a total of six people in the visiting delegation.

For a survivor gathering place with a total population of only two to three hundred, these people are already a lot.

It can be seen that the other party attaches great importance to the relationship with them.

Of course, what really pleased Chu Guang was the knowledge these people possessed.

This excited him even more than the black box.

The old man walking in the front was about to speak when Pai next to him took a step forward and saluted with his index finger.

"Dear Mr. Administrator, we are from Camp 101. My name is Pai, a representative of the visiting group."

This is the line she thought up all night yesterday.

It's a pity not to say it.

Seeing her actions, Chu Guang was slightly surprised.

He had seen this military salute before, it was in the library of Vault 117.

If I remember correctly...

Is it a military salute from the United Fleet?

Thinking of this, Chu Guang joked.

"It's a pleasure to meet you, recruit of the fleet, but our ship is gone. The last mission entrusted to you by the organization is to rebuild our homeland and wait for the day of sailing again."

Every day, he can see the players doing all kinds of performance art, and he has long been familiar with all kinds of escaping behaviors.

However, what he didn't expect was that the girl in front of him puffed up her chest and said crisply.

"Yes! Guaranteed to complete the task!"

Huh?
The radio waves actually matched?
Looking at Pai who was "playing around" there, Butan looked at Chu Guang and said with trepidation.

"Dear Mr. Administrator, please forgive her rudeness."

Chu Guang laughed.

"Don't be so nervous, you are not my soldiers, and you are not fighting now, so you don't need to salute me."

As he spoke, he restrained his joking expression, and solemnly extended his right hand.

"My name is Chu Guang, and my friends often call me Shuguang, you can do whatever you want."

Seeing the big steel hand in front of him, the old man froze for a moment, stretched out his right hand and shook it gently with him.

"Butan, the environmental engineer at Camp 101, I heard that you plan to clean up the lake, so I volunteered to come here. Next to me is Pai, a student of the most knowledgeable person in our camp..."

Not just Pai.

Butan introduced all the people in the entourage, including the taciturn bodyguard in the cloak.

However, he didn't introduce much about that person, only mentioning that its name is Tian Qin and that its duty is to be responsible for everyone's safety.

Chu Guang didn't care. After listening to the old man's introduction, his eyes lit up.

"So you're an expert in water conservancy?"

Butan said with a smile.

"I don't dare to say it's an expert, but water conservancy engineering is indeed in my field of expertise. I have checked the relevant information on Xizhou Lake before. This lake is the product of the Central Continent's environmental transformation plan in the era of the People's Federation..."

As soon as he talked about his professional field, Butan couldn't stop, and talked a lot, from the origin of the plan to the origin of Xizhou City.

Seeing that he was talking endlessly, Chu Guang quickly found an opportunity to grab the topic back.

"You can talk about it! But this is not a place to chat, please go back to the camp with me first!"

"We have prepared a temporary resting place for you. I will go to Dawn City with you tomorrow. We can discuss it in detail on the way!"

Butan nodded excitedly.

"no problem!"

The group continued on their way.

On the way back, Pai kept wandering around Chu Guang, his big eyes full of curiosity.

Or to be more precise, it was the power armor that surrounded him.

"Is this the legendary power armor?"

"Yes." Chu Guang replied gently.

"Isn't it tiring to wear such a big iron bump all the time?" Before Chu Guang could answer, Pai said excitedly, "Can you touch it for me when you don't wear it?"

This guy seems to have endless energy and is full of curiosity about everything he sees.

Chu Guang didn't find it annoying, but became interested in her field of expertise.

"I heard that your teacher is very good?"

"Of course! My master manages the files of the entire camp! He knows everything!" Pai puffed out his chest proudly.

Chu Guang nodded thoughtfully, and continued.

"how about you?"

"Of course I am also super powerful! But I am different from the master, I mainly study machinery..."

While talking, she suddenly thought of something, and immediately ran to the cloaked bodyguard, and found a doll from the backpack behind him.

The doll was very small, only the size of two palms, and was wearing a white jumpsuit with blue stripes.

The blond hair and blue pupils are probably based on her own, but the facial features are completely different and delicate, giving people a soft feeling.

Handing it out graciously, Pai said in a melodious voice.

"For you! This is a gift from Ambassador Pai, I hope we can live in peace and friendship!"

Butan, who was listening aside, had a black line floating on his forehead, and squeezed the space between his brows with some headaches.

Although there is indeed a link to exchange gifts, this is obviously not the occasion for doing it.

Seeing Pai's serious appearance and the doll in her hand, Chu Guang couldn't help but bend the corners of his mouth, just about to smile and say a kind word, he appreciates it.

However, at this moment, Xiao Qi's whisper suddenly came from his ear.

'Woooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo, master~'

Chu Guang's goosebumps popped up from this unexpected coquettish act.

Alas!
Where did this guy get the voice pack from?

Just about to ask what it wanted to do, Xiao Qi continued to speak pitifully.

'Can you give it to me! '

Chu Guang froze for a moment.

What do you want this thing for?

Looking at Pai's expectant eyes, Chu Guang, who couldn't stand Xiao Qi's begging, finally reached out and took the doll.

"Thank you."

A happy smile appeared on Pai's face.

"You're welcome! I'm running out of time, so I don't have time to prepare other gifts, so don't be offended."

Come and don't go indecent.

It can be seen that this doll should be very important to her.

Chu Guang thought for a while, and waved to the sky.

A fist-sized hummingbird drone floated down, landed firmly on his hand, and closed its propellers as thin as cicada wings.

Looking at the silver-white metal ball, Pai's surprised eyes almost popped out.

"This, is it a hummingbird?!"

A product of the Renlian era!
Due to its small size and light weight, it can freely shuttle in a small space, and shoot in all directions without dead ends. I heard that many people in that era would use this thing to broadcast live.

"It seems that I have met someone who knows the goods."

Chu Guang smiled, and put the silver-white metal ball in her hand.

Among the premium blind boxes, the Hummingbird Drone is one of the few non-weapon-related prizes.

As for this hummingbird, it was the prize he drew from the blind box draw last night, and he even drew two at a time.

It's okay to give as a gift.

Every hummingbird flying over the new alliance is equipped with a defensive plug-in, even if it is hijacked and forced to land, it can prevent it from being controlled by hostile forces.

These security codes are written into the underlying logic of the operating system, which is enough to ensure that these things are within the signal coverage of the new alliance, will not fly to places they should not go, and will not be used to do things that are not good for the new alliance .

Sending drones is better than sending weapons.

Pai, who took the hummingbird, said thank you several times as if he had found a treasure, and then went to play with the drone.

Looking at the puppet in his hand, Chu Guang had a strange expression on his face, and finally stuffed it into the backpack.

This scene was seen by the little players next to them, and they began to communicate in whispers.

"What is that doll?"

"Manual?"

"Damn it, the manager still has this hobby!"

"This must be passed on!"

Kuang Feng, who was not involved in the topic, gave a dry cough.

"...I think it's better for you to keep your voice down. Other NPCs can't understand us, but the faction leader seems to understand."

Ye Shi immediately shut up and did not speak.

……

After returning to the camp, the two sides exchanged gifts.

A gift from Camp 101, a holographic computer pen.

After turning it on, the holographic imaging device at the port will release a blue light beam, and a light blue holographic screen will appear in the light beam.

Butan personally demonstrated the specific operation method to Chu Guang.

Even Chu Guang, who had seen a lot of high technology, couldn't help but open his eyes and accepted this gift happily.

When the Pioneer first arrived, he wanted to get a portable holographic computer, but unfortunately he never had the chance.

Now this wish is finally fulfilled.

Camp No. 101 showed its technology to the new alliance, and Chu Guang was not stingy here, and generously returned the gift.

This return gift includes 100 pieces of crab cakes, 100 Nuka-Cola sodas, ten packs of coffee beans, various pastries, ten rolls of devil's silk and ten pieces of devil's cloth, etc.

Anyway, except for the spirit leaves and nutritional cream, Chu Guang stuffed representative specialties into the big gift bag, which fully filled a truck.

For a survivor settlement with a size of two to three hundred people, this is undoubtedly a great gift.

After seeing the gifts loaded on the truck, all the members of the visiting group showed surprised expressions on their faces.

"This...wouldn't be too expensive." Butan said with some embarrassment.

Chu Guang said with a smile.

"These are common objects in the new alliance, and they are not as valuable as you imagined. Please accept them."

When meeting for the first time, it is natural to give more.

How about a shocking effect?
As for the significance, it is naturally to show the prosperous culture and rich products of the new alliance!
As for what is the use?

That's so useful!
If you don't give some benefits, how can you make others work willingly?
In order to facilitate communication, Chu Guang gave Butan 100 hundred-yuan banknotes at the end of the meeting.

Looking at the puzzled old man on his face, he patiently explained.

"In the new alliance, anyone needs to pay for buying things, even managers, you can use these silver coins as activities."

Although confused about how to use this thing, Butan still nodded respectfully.

"Thank you for your attention."

After arranging the visiting group, Chu Guang returned to his camp.

Yin Fang also followed.

Seeing that there was no one else around, he stepped forward and said in a low voice.

"That Tian Qin is a bionic person."

Hearing this sentence, Chu Guang was slightly taken aback.

"Android?"

Yin Fang nodded solemnly.

"Trust me, I'm not wrong."

As a front-line prospector of the college, he has absolute confidence in his vision and intuition.From the moment we first met, he had his eyes on that guy.

A surprised expression appeared on Chu Guang's face.

After coming to the wasteland world for so long, he has heard many rumors about bionic people, but this is the first time he has seen them in reality.

"Android... is there a problem?"

"No problem, but you need to be careful," Yin Fang said seriously. "If it is a companion bionic human, it is basically harmless, but it is obviously not this type."

"But if it's a combat bionic designed as a weapon, depending on its ability, it might be more dangerous than the claws of death!"

Regardless of the variety and model, the combat effectiveness and power armor of Death Claw probably belong to the same echelon in the wasteland.

The former is better at heads-up and more adaptable to complex jungle terrain, while the latter has stronger comprehensive ability and has good adaptability to any battlefield environment.

Chu Guang nodded thoughtfully, and wrote down this advice.

He didn't think Camp 101 had reason to offend himself, but it never hurt to be careful.

After explaining this matter, Yin conveniently went back to repair the fuel rod.

With the power armor removed, Chu Guang was about to turn on the VM to see how his currency recovery plan was going.

However, at this moment, the backpack he threw aside suddenly trembled, and a doll crawled out of it.

Seeing this, Chu Guang was startled, and took out all the pistols in his pocket.

"Wuuuuuu, master," the puppet pointed at by the gun had an aggrieved expression on its face, "Are you going to kill Xiao Qi?"

Hearing the familiar voice packet, Chu Guang lowered the muzzle of the gun with a dazed face, staring at it and said.

"What the hell?!"

"I'm not a ghost, I'm Xiao Qi." The puppet sitting on the table blinked.

Chu Guang: "..."

Seeing that Chu Guang hadn't spoken for a long time, Xiao Qi said cautiously.

"Master, are you angry?"

"No."

Chu Guang sighed and put away the gun in his hand.

Kneading his brows and sorting out his thoughts for a moment, he decided to start asking the questions he was most concerned about.

"What's going on with this puppet...?"

"It's a bionic robot. It is equipped with sophisticated motor components and rare bionic control components. It is almost the same as a real person except that it is a little smaller!"

The puppet sitting on the table looked at Chu Guang happily, talking with sparkling eyes.

Those vivid facial expressions, if you don't stare and observe carefully, it really looks the same as a real person.

"...Of course, its control program is much rougher than that of the peripherals. It even uses the template of the most basic general-purpose version of AI. It can't even restore the facial expressions. Xiaoqi simply redoes its operating system. gone."

"From now on! This body is already Xiaoqi's, and it's okay for the master to treat it as Xiaoqi! Hehe."

Looking at the triumphant Xiao Qi, Chu Guang showed a surprised expression.

Having said that, just now Yin Fang didn't realize that this puppet is a bionic robot?

There's something about that little girl named Pai...

Of course, it may also be because Yin Fang's attention was all on Tian Qin at that time.

Chu Guang stared at Xiao Qi seriously and asked.

"Can you be sure it's safe?"

Hearing this question, Xiao Qi said proudly.

"Don't worry, Master! Not only did Xiao Qi check it twice, but he even reprogrammed the underlying logic of controlling the motor! You can always trust Xiao Qi!"

Chu Guang was relieved a little, but soon he blushed because he was worried about a girl plotting against him.

Coughing lightly, he changed the subject.

"...What is the use of this thing?"

Xiao Qi proudly put her hands on her hips.

"Hmph, it's very useful. In the future, the master can take Xiao Qi with him when he travels far away!"

Most importantly, it finally has its own legs!

No need to go up the stairs and trouble Boss Xia anymore!
"Even without this thing, wouldn't you still be by my side?" Chu Guang looked at the puppet sitting on the table strangely.

His VM was always connected to the Vault, and almost never left the Vault's signal range.

It will be there for him whenever he needs it.

"That's different!" Xiao Qi shook her head like a rattle and said with determination.

Although he didn't know what was different, Chu Guang still believed it.

Anyway, it's just something bigger than a palm, and it's not a hindrance to wear it on the body. It might be used as a hole card in critical times.

At this moment, footsteps came from outside the door, followed by Maban's voice.

"My lord, there is a group of people outside our camp!"

Chu Guang frowned slightly.

Getting up and coming to the door, he opened the tent curtain and looked at Ma Ban and asked.

"Who?"

Ma Ban continued speaking quickly.

"They claim to be from the Buguera Free State in the north and are employed by the 'Firestone' Group!"
