This game is too real.

Chapter 366 Beta0.3 version update!

Controlled Fusion Fuel Rods!
And it is still made by Zhongzhou Aerospace, which matches the size of the shelter reactor!
The camp of the enterprise expedition team, the temporary warehouse.

Looking at the familiar fuel rod piled in the trophy C, Chu Guang's face flashed a look of surprise.

I didn't expect that such a good thing would be obtained by them!
"...We got it from an abandoned Zhongzhou Aerospace Research Institute. We originally wanted to go in and search for supplies, but we didn't expect to find this thing." Standing beside Chu Guang, Heding, who was the logistics officer, was smiling. Said.

Chu Guang didn't answer, but walked forward quickly, pulled out the data cable from his VM and connected it to the reactor.

"Xiao Qi, help me see how much power is still inside."

A vigorous answer came from the earphones.

"Roger that!"

As a series of data streams flashed across the vm screen, the remaining energy was quickly displayed in the pop-up dialog box.

63%!

Looking at this number, the surprise in Chu Guang's eyes became more and more obvious.

On the wasteland 200 years after the apocalypse, it is almost impossible to find fuel rods with more than 50% energy remaining.

As for what is the use of this thing?

That's so useful!

With fuel rods, it means that abandoned shelters can be restarted, which means that he can open more sub-bases and prepare more novice villages for his little leeks—oh no, little players!

"It seems that you are very satisfied with this thing." Heding said with a smile.

Chu Guang collected himself, and calmly pulled the data cable back.

"The energy has been lost by 37%, but it's okay."

Heding almost choked on this sentence, and when he was about to say something, the manager in front of him quickly skipped the topic.

"These are all exoskeletons?"

Seeing Chu Guang looking at the pile of tatters behind the fuel rods, Heding coughed dryly and nodded.

"It was... from some attackers."

These exoskeletons are obviously broken, but they are not completely broken, and they can still be repaired.

For those that could not be repaired, some valuable parts and advanced electronic components were removed.

Judging from the appearance and labels, most of these exoskeletons are "Buckler" and "Flint".

The former is the equipment of the Great Rift Valley, which is characterized by thick and hard armor, and the latter is a lightweight imitation version of the former, designed and produced by the Firestone Group of the Buguera Free State.

"Have you met someone from the Great Rift Valley?" A hint of surprise appeared in Chu Guang's eyes.

Heding shook his head.

"Their combat literacy is very poor. They are just a group of looters who happened to be holding the same equipment. I guess they bought these equipment from the Buguera Freedom Gang. Isn't there a well-known black market in the central region? I heard some business do all."

There was a hint of surprise in Chu Guang's eyes, and he asked with interest.

"It seems that you know this place quite well."

Heding said of course.

"Isn't it common sense to investigate the local situation before departure? Unfortunately, there is too little information about you. I only heard that this is a farm, so I brought some miners I exoskeleton, but I didn't expect to come After reading this, I found that the actual situation is completely different from what I heard.”

"It was indeed a farm half a year ago, and it is in fact now. Your news is actually not a problem..." Looking at the things in the warehouse, Chu Guang said with admiration, "I didn't expect you to pick up so many good things along the way. .”

This doesn't look like a rescue.

It's like going on a treasure hunt.

"Of course, our team's load is limited, and we won't carry anything that isn't good."

Heding teased and continued.

"In fact, apart from these exoskeletons, the KV-1 with poor functions is the most common...Of course, the most common ones are the predators with iron-pipe rifles, but after they see our equipment, they generally don't rely on it at all. Come here to waste our bullets, and hide far away, and then go up to clean the battlefield after we leave."

Chu Guangchu briefly estimated the value of the pair of goods. Although it was not as good as the good things they brought from Ideal City, it was quite good.

"Buckard" should be able to repair more than 30 sets, and "Flint" can repair more than 100 sets without any problem.

Unlike the "Miner" series, these exoskeletons themselves are designed for combat, and the target should be the "Pioneer" worn by these corporate soldiers.

As a local force that can withstand the pace of legions and corporate expeditions, the equipment of the Great Rift Valley still has a lot of remarkable features, which are worth learning from.

Taking into account the repair cost, Chu Guang estimated the value of these items in the warehouse at 150 million silver coins.

In the shop of the new alliance, this money is enough to buy 1500 tons of nutritional paste or 375 tons of corn.

Of course, what we are talking about here is the retail price. If it is at the wholesale price, whether you buy or sell is another matter.

"Is that all there is to it?"

Chu Guang just asked casually just in case, but he didn't expect it to happen.

"Of course it's more than that. There's also a special trophy that we put in the warehouse next to it... Come with me."

With that said, Heding turned and walked towards the door.

Chu Guang rolled his eyes at his back for this kind of trickery, but still followed.

Another warehouse door opened.

When Chu Guang saw the iron lump standing in the warehouse, surprise quickly appeared in Chu Guang's eyes, which soon turned into surprise.

"Fuck..."

Power Armor!

It turned out to be power armor!
The protruding alloy breastplate exudes a cold light, and on the silver-gray armor shell, faded numbers and digital camouflage can be faintly seen.

There was a neat cut from the left shoulder to the armpit, as if it had been chopped by something.

And on his right shoulder, there is also a group of couplets printed——

【—— Defeat】

Chu Guang:?
Normally speaking, shouldn't it be a must win?
Diding not noticed the subtle expression changes on Chu Guang's face, Heding, who was standing aside, introduced it quite proudly.

"OD-10 power armor, code-named 'Dragon Cavalry'! The standard equipment of the Orbital Airborne Force of the People's Federation of Air and Space Forces. You should be able to guess from the name, what this thing is for."

There are two main types of power armor installed by the People's Federation Army, one is land combat models, and the other is air and space models.

The former emphasizes firepower and armor, while the latter emphasizes lightweight and mobility.

After all, the task undertaken by the latter is more to take the airdrop cabin and quickly break through the ground firepower network from high orbit to complete the deployment. If the size and tonnage are too large, it will be a disadvantage.

OD-10 "Dragoon" belongs to the latter.

Compared with the T-10 "Champion" power armor with strong armor, the lightweight design makes it look less bloated.

But even so, the thick armor is not something that ordinary light weapons can easily penetrate.

At least it has to be anti-armor armor-piercing shells!

After introducing the advantages, Heding slowed down his speaking speed and volume, and continued.

"But don't rush to get excited. Like those exoskeletons, this power armor is good except for the main structure, micro-reactor and fusion battery. Other parts are either aging or broken—"

"It doesn't matter, as long as the reactor is good!" Chu Guang said indifferently.

He Ding glanced at Chu Guang in surprise, unexpectedly, he turned out to be a knowledgeable one.

But think about it.

After all, he is the leader of Blue Coat, maybe he is an old Popsicle who came over 200 years ago.

Knowing about power armor is not surprising.

"...That's right, the most valuable micro-reactors and fusion batteries can still be used, and repairs elsewhere are actually not a big problem. Including the tear, it is completely feasible to weld the steel plate."

"Anyway, this thing is not used to single out tanks, and I don't think you will do such a thing."

Power armor is the general term for all nuclear-powered individual equipment.

The biggest difference between power armor and exoskeleton lies in the power source.

Most of the exoskeleton power sources are chemical energy batteries, while the power armor is powered by nuclear fusion batteries, so stronger armor can be installed and weapons with more powerful firepower can be installed.

This is why it is called "a tank that can drive into an alley" and "an infantry vehicle that can climb stairs".

Therefore, it doesn't matter if the armor is broken, as long as the most valuable micro-reactor is not broken, and the fusion battery inserted in it is fine, everything is fine!

Look broken?
Can that be called broken?
That is traces of history!
Make up a story with twists and turns, and sell it for millions of silver coins easily!

Chu Guang didn't intend to use this thing himself.

The azure blue power armor on him is more representative of his identity as a manager.

In addition, the protective performance of the police power armor is not bad, and the protective ability against light weapons may be better than that of the "Dragon Cavalry", but its mobility and firepower are slightly worse.If he doesn't go to the forefront of the battlefield, he won't be able to use these two items.

And the most important thing is that his set of power armor is almost [-]% new, with no scratches to be found, so there is really no need to replace it with a second-hand battle-damaged version.

Or leave it to his cute little players!
"Where did you pick this thing up?" Came back from his excitement, Chu Guang looked at Heding and asked.

"That's a long story."

Heding's eyes fell into memories, and his tone was a little complicated, or emotional.

"When we were searching for the Pioneer message, we tracked down a message for help. The caller claimed to be a resident of the refuge, and you were captured by a group of looters. They asked him to restore this set of old antiques that he didn't know where he picked up."

"Of course he can't fix this thing, but he cleverly fooled the group of looters, and tricked the looters to help collect parts for 'repairing power armor', then used those parts to assemble a radio station, and sent the looters The coordinates of the den and the distress signal."

"Generally speaking, this is useless, but who wants us to see it? We can't just watch civilized people being thrown into the frying pan by barbarians."

"Just as we were passing by the refuge, our captain decided to bring that unlucky fellow to you. It didn't take much effort to deal with the marauders with iron-pipe rifles, but...it's a pity that no one was saved, Only this power armor was found."

Having said that, Hedin had a regretful expression on his face, and clicked his tongue.

"He was hung at the door of the raider's lair, and he had been dead for days when we found him. The guy somehow pissed off the raiders, and you don't want to know what became of his body It looks like... if it lasts for another two or three days, we planned to bring him to you."

"..." Chu Guang was dumbfounded, not knowing what to say.

But regret is certain.

Most of the residents of the refuge have received higher education, whether it is the old popsicles from 200 years ago or the new generation of residents.

Heya and the residents of Vault 117 are the best examples. Each of them is an excellent "biologist" and has made a series of outstanding contributions to the research on the slime mold variant.

It would be a loss to all mankind to let a group of uncivilized savages use those people!

Thinking that the manager in front of him was feeling sorry for the dead compatriots, Hedin didn't continue on this topic, but returned to the power armor.

"Including this power armor, and the previous trophies... If you are interested, I can sell it to you for 150 million silver coins."

Hearing this number, Chu Guang had no time to be pleasantly surprised, and said without even thinking about it.

"make a deal!"

His psychological price for the goods in the previous warehouse was also this figure.

Thinking about it this way, this set of power armor is worthless!
Do you still hesitate?

"Don't worry," Heding smiled and said pointedly, "This is a friendship price."

Seeing the expression on his face, Chu Guang immediately understood the meaning of this sentence, and a smile of interest appeared on his face.

"So... how do I get your friendship?"

Heding glanced at the door, then lowered his voice and continued.

"I invested in a food processing factory in the Province of the Clouds, and I am committed to providing the province and mercenaries with portable self-heating food and a wide variety of canned food. However... not everyone can afford the food we produce It would be great if there is an instant food that is cheap, easy to cook, can be stored for a long time, and tastes good.”

"The issue of supplies can't be sloppy. It's not only about survival, but also about morale."

"Let's be honest, I'm very interested in your instant noodle cake. You said it can be stored for a long time, the cost is low, and it doesn't need to add preservatives. It sounds much more interesting than compressed biscuits...including the recipe for the hot pot, I I want to learn."

Looking at those fiery eyes that couldn't be concealed, Chu Guang was slightly taken aback, but he almost didn't laugh out loud in his heart.

Is this considered exchanging instant noodles for power armor?

However, he didn't put a disrespectful expression on his face, instead he pretended to think about it for a long time.

"...is our friendship a one-off, or long-term?"

Hearing Chu Guang's words, He Ding immediately promised.

"Of course it is long-term. You and I are not greedy people. Only long-term business can continue, isn't it?"

Hearing this sentence, Chu Guang showed a smile on his face.

"No problem! When tomorrow dawns, I'll have someone take you to our factory for a look!"

Of course he didn't think a promise could carry much weight, especially if it was made by a mercenary businessman.

But as an excellent salesman, he can't let his customers feel that they have lost money.

After all, whether it is instant noodles or hot pot base, it may take some time to think about it, but it is definitely not a complicated thing.

I hope that Mr. Heding will not be too surprised when he visits the factory tomorrow...

……

In order to help these friends who came from afar to solve their problems, Chu Guang was busy from morning to sunset, without much rest all day long.

However, in contrast to the effort, the harvest of this whole day is also quite gratifying.

In addition to the pre-war power armor, the exoskeleton of the Great Rift Valley, and the fuel rod with 63% remaining energy, Heding also persuaded Yun Song for him, intending to leave 5 logistics personnel to help them build G9 assault rifle accessories and its ammunition production line.

This means that Chu Guang not only got all the trophies of the expedition team from Ideal City to River Valley Province, but also the trophies that Yun Song and the others obtained before returning to Ideal City will be sent to the new alliance first. silver.

And Chu Guang took these trophies and could sell them to players to recover silver coins, or sell them to neighbors to earn foreign exchange.

As for the weapon and ammunition production line "aided" by the company, it is equivalent to picking it up for nothing!

In addition, these friends who came from afar will also pay 20 silver coins per day for the medical expenses of the 500 wounded.

The fee includes regular injections of inhibitors and three meals a day.

Until they were taken home by their own people.

1 silver a day, 30 a month, Chu Guang wished they could live here for a year.

Although this is impossible...

After dinner, Chu Guang returned to the shelter alone.

Boss Xia and Xiaoyu went to school, Yin Fang was in Xizhou City, and He Ya stayed in the medical laboratory for retreat all day. Chu Guanghuan glanced at the empty reading room, feeling strangely deserted.

At this time, a pleasant voice suddenly came from a certain decoration on the table.

"Master, if you feel lonely, Xiao Qi can accompany you."

Chu Guang replied skillfully.

"Ok."

Xiao Qi: "Whoa, how perfunctory!"

Chu Guang: "Then... how about it?"

Xiao Qi: "Hey, although it sounds fake, it feels much better!"

Chu Guang: "..."

Although being easy to coax is barely an advantage, isn't this guy a bit too smart?
Seeing the figurine covering his face shyly, Chu Guang resisted the urge to roll his eyes, walked to his retro-style laptop and sat down.

It's been a long time since I played a game.

While thinking about whether to relax for a while, Chu Guang unconsciously clicked on the forum while holding the mouse.

Sure enough, in his subconscious mind, "Wasteland OL" designed by himself is more fun.

Although the alliance entered a period of steady development after the war, and he hadn't been in the game for a while, the players actively discovered a lot of fun that he hadn't imagined in places he didn't expect.

Some players followed the caravan to the remote Jinchuan province for adventure, and brought the scenery of the southern jungle and basin plain back to the forum, and some players ran to the northern Buguera Free State and saw the legendary sin City.

Some players even fell in love with passer-by NPCs.

However, Chu Guang is very suspicious of how long they can stick together with completely different language and cultural backgrounds and even mentalities.

As for whether the secret of the game will be revealed, Chu Guang is not worried at all.

When any player asks him this question, his answer is a generous acknowledgment - "This is undoubtedly a completely real world", and by the way reminds players to pay attention to their own words and deeds and others' evaluation of them, implying that " Favorability" may affect the triggering of tasks.

Interestingly, the more he emphasized it, the less people took what he said seriously.

After all, as long as they need a helmet to log in to the game one day, it is impossible to convince other people that they need to wear a helmet to enter the game.

The conjectured truth is not important at all, and the truth or falsehood of something that one or two people believe deeply has nothing to do with it.

Like last night, today's forum is as lively as ever.

Apart from those fragmentary posts, the traveling team from the enterprise has undoubtedly become the hottest topic on the forum in the past two days.

When the Pioneer passed by Qingquan City last time, many players made a small fortune by seizing the "historical opportunity", which made those players who did not seize the opportunity and newcomers who were late in the game envious.

Now the people from the enterprise are here again. Although they are not from the same group, it does not hinder the enthusiasm of the players.

The silver coins went into their pockets by themselves.

Does this make them run away?

Master Wang, who sells bamboo shoots at the entrance of the village: "Oh my god, the black shop has been open for so long, and it's finally waiting for a wave of fat sheep!"

Construction site boy and Zhuan: "Brothers, Xiaolongbao, hot pot and grilled crayfish, let's go! (Proud)"

Ma Kabazi: "Damn! I went to their camp during the day to take a look, why do I feel that the Tianlong people who came this time are so poor!"

Irena: "Poor is also from the east coast, don't think mosquitoes are not meat! (funny)"

Elven King Fugui: "I don't know why, I don't feel anything when others say this, but when you say this, my stomach churns. (Funny)"

Tail: "Oh! Pass it on! Lao Na is going to eat mosquitoes! Ψ(｀)Ψ"

Fujito: "(ω)"

WC really has mosquitoes: "This can also persecute me???"

Yaya: "You ducks, can't you be more friendly to your friends? Less routine, more sincerity, you can still make a fortune. (@ω｀@)"

Big eyes in debt: "Are you so embarrassed! 100Cr mushroom soup!"

Drum Shampoo: "That's right! Yours is the darkest!"

Yaya: "Well, that's a misunderstanding! How long do you have to remember! QAQ"

Looking at those young players who brainstormed and came up with bad ideas, Chu Guang couldn't help showing an old father's smile on his face.

It is worthy of being a leek cultivated by myself.

Not only will he contribute his own strength when he needs it, but he will also take the initiative to help him squeeze other people's wool.

However, you have to pay attention to the rules when you pull the wool.

This time, I have already helped the players pre-emptively negotiate the rules of the transaction and stipulate the currency of the transaction.

Players no longer have to work hard to earn foreign exchange.

It is the same to earn the silver coins in the hands of those NPCs directly by taking advantage of the local market!

When those NPCs are short of silver coins, the captain named Yun Song will naturally take the good things he brought from the east coast, or the spoils he snatched from the looters, and exchange them for money.

If they really have no money to spend, Chu Guang will introduce them to some commissions that are well paid and the players cannot handle temporarily, or ask them to contact their hometown to make money.

As long as it does not conflict with their own missions and the risk is not too high, I believe they will not mind helping their allies.

Players earn silver coins, corporate expeditions solve logistical problems, and new alliances get goods from Ideal City and a thriving economy.

This wave is of course a win-win situation!

Thinking of this, a happy smile appeared on Chu Guang's face, and he clicked the mouse twice with his index finger to open the previously created folder.

Lying in the folder is the Beta0.3 update announcement.

Originally, after Brother Fang Chang unlocked the black market, he planned to take this thing out directly.

But I didn't expect that the plan couldn't keep up with the changes, and people from the company suddenly visited, and the original update announcement seemed a bit outdated.

In the new version, players will have more development routes and equipment to choose from.At the same time, the forces to which the player belongs will also communicate more frequently with other forces on the wasteland.

As he once told Luca, they were no longer a small village, or a settlement of survivors.

It's an alliance of countless survivors!

It took some time to edit, and Chu Guang updated the revised announcement on the forum.

[Beta0.3 version update announcement: a large number of high-tech equipment and bionic prosthetic bodies have been added! 】

[New equipment: "Buckard" exoskeleton, with light weapon protection not inferior to Type 3 "Heavy Cavalry" exoskeleton, designed for war, it can handle most battlefield environments on the wasteland... The price is [-] silver! 】

[The "Firestone" exoskeleton is the standard five-style "light cavalry" exoskeleton, which is a lightweight version of the "Buckler" exoskeleton, with higher maneuverability and longer battery life... The price is 1.5 silver! 】

【New NPC "...":...】

[Note: The bionic organs from Ideal City can be sold at a price in Boulder City, whether it is used as a trade item or for your own use, it is a good choice.But please pay attention to the equipment drop mechanism. If the character dies accidentally, please remember to ask your teammates to help you recover it, and make an appointment for surgery in time. 】

[New contribution point level: "Knight"]

[Contribution points reach 10, you can be promoted from "higher citizen" to "apprentice knight".After reaching the "Knight", players can purchase and hold a set of power armor in the NPC store, allowing the upper limit of holding land to be increased from 500 square meters to 1000 square meters. 】

【…】

Looking at the contents of the update announcement, Chu Guang nodded in satisfaction.

"The Pioneer is in trouble, maybe the player corps will have to be mobilized again, and the 'land reclamation' system will have to be left in the next version..."

"Beta 0.3 is for the time being."

There's a lot to this update.

No one should be saying that they have fished.
