Interstellar: Start as a cleaner

Chapter 614 What a joke

Taking this time, Yang Bo carefully studied the various professions and various gameplay methods in this game.

 “This is also a money-losing thing!”

“This game is so real, it’s like traveling back in time to ancient times, how difficult it would be to survive.”

“I wonder why the Shuilan Empire does this kind of thing? Is it to train clones? Or is it to select the most talented people from these clones?”

“Or is this an experiment in itself, used to perfect human cloning?”

“Or is it research on the soul or neural networks?”

“But now it seems that if you want to get ahead, you still have to choose the combat profession.”

“It’s impossible for the Shuilan Empire to say that it wants to train these clones here to become the best chefs? The best musicians, the best carpenters?”

While Yang Bo was studying, he looked carefully at the character in the game. He was wearing linen clothes and a helmet on his head, but he wore a hat outside the helmet.

While Yang Bo was controlling the game character to perform various actions, Yang Bo soon discovered that he was controlling the game character, and the virtual helmet would emit different electromagnetic fluctuations when making actions.

“It’s just that the Shuilan Empire has now developed to directly use electromagnetic waves, and then convert them into brainwave signals somewhere, and then control the clones?”

“In the end, I can control clones directly through brain waves without moving my hands?”

 You must know that productivity hunting in this era of the game is a dangerous thing.

Yang Bo controlled the game character and came to the village chief to ask about hunting.

Of course, if you register as a subject of this lord, the lord can reduce the tax to 40%.

This game is very real. The game characters in it will be hungry, physically exhausted, and short of breath.

Yang Bo found that many gamers were doing tasks in the village. Some gamers were farming and weeding in the fields, and some were helping other villagers build houses and fences.

However, there is background music in the game, and the background music is very comfortable, so many people will ignore this.

Moreover, the village chief continues to praise the lords for their mercy, because some lords can collect 80% or even 90% of the tax.

So Yang Bo felt very uncomfortable when controlling the game character. For example, running was slower and various reaction actions were not that fast.

“Could it be that this virtual helmet is collecting my brain waves, or is it doing program training?”

  In other words, no matter how much hunting you harvest, you can only have 30% left.

Yang Bo discovered that the helmets worn by the clones had batteries inside them. The helmets were also worn directly on the heads of these people, without any other parts implanted in their heads.

In addition, any electronic product has electromagnetic fluctuations, as long as the intensity of the electromagnetic fluctuations does not exceed safety standards.

Yang Bo himself is very strong, but the clone controlled by the game is just an ordinary boy.

 As a newbie, I only have one set of clothes, pants, and a hat, and nothing else.

“You’re not from the Swordsmanship Association, are you?” Yang Bo has paranoia about being persecuted. Since the game helmet was given to him by them, the NPC that looks at him must have something to do with them.

“It seems that the alliance’s previous neural control method was to attach some receivers directly to the scalp to collect brain wave signals?”

There is a pattern on the surface of the helmet, but this pattern should be the receiving antenna, because the helmet is not wired.

“Hey!” Dr. Yang tried to control the character and ran and jumped in the village. Yang Bo found that there seemed to be an NPC in the village watching him.

 “Black!” Yang Bo found out after some research that he had to pay 60% tax to the lord here, and 10% to the village.

This village chief is also a real person, but this village chief feels a bit like an NPC in the game. His words and actions are more stylized.

Yang Bo did not join the village as a vassal, because the rules of Yang Boji's game are that the lord can unconditionally recruit all the civilians in his territory.

As for what all civilians should be recruited to do, they could build a castle for the lord, work for the lord, or serve as cannon fodder in a war.

Although the tax collection seems to be low now, Yang Bo feels that something will definitely happen later.

 Since the Aqualan Empire wants to train these clones, the better you perform, the more things you will encounter in the future.

"This time when I go to the Aqualan Empire, I must check it out." Yang Bo thought that he would play the game first, and of course he would not express himself too much. He would wait until he went to the Aqualan Empire to participate in the swordsmanship competition.

In just such a short period of time, the game character will be hungry. The game official will remind you that once the hunger level is reduced to a certain level, the person will stop taking action.

Yang Bo controlled the game character and accepted a hunting mission from the village chief. That is, you can only go hunting nearby after accepting the mission. Otherwise, it is illegal, because all the surrounding land and forests, and all the prey in them, belong to the lord.

 After accepting the mission, you are not afraid of being caught by the lord's patrol.

This is a hilly area, with a lot of land in the valley, and the mountains in the distance are bare.

Yang Bo can understand this, because the society in this game is not that developed now, and people cannot survive without wood, so there are also professions such as woodcutter.

Although the character controlled by Yang Bo is an ordinary person, some of Yang Bo's auxiliary abilities can still be used, such as dynamic vision. Although it is not as good as the high-definition images of the bionic man in the apocalyptic dungeon game, you can easily find some business Still no problem.

Yang Bo came to the river and found that there were many players fishing.

 This river is not very wide, only about 30 meters in total, and the water in the middle is about 2/3.

 There is a wooden bridge over the river, all made of thick logs.

 The log bridge piers are several large logs tied together, with logs laid flat on top. And there were no railings on it. These gamers looked at Yang Bo, a newbie, and didn't pay attention. They were all busy with their own things.

These gamers wear different clothes. These people have more or less leather clothes on their bodies.

 The game character's hunger level has dropped a little at this time. If the hunger level drops below 60, all reactions of the entire game character will slow down. If the hunger level drops below 30, the character will die.

 The hunger level of the game character is now 80.

Yang Bo thought about it for a moment, then turned back to the village and came to the grocery store.

 The grocery store is one of the best buildings in the village, with walls built of rocks, while the village chief's house is a wooden house.

Others in the village are like shacks. Most of them use wood as pillars, and then weave branches between the wood, and then paste soil on both sides of the braided branches.

 It’s a bit like those old and tribal houses in Africa on earth.

The whole house is round and short, covered with various kinds of grass or leaves and branches.

 The roof of the grocery store is entirely made of wood, and the wooden boards are covered with stone slabs.

Yang Bo did a cool operation, that is, he sold his character's top and exchanged it for some food.

 “This guy?” The people who were responsible for observing the new players were simply shocked when they saw this scene.

How about exchanging your own clothes for food?

However, Yang Bo, the owner of the grocery store, thought that he might have been implanted with a biochip, so their reaction was the same as that of the NPC in the game.

It’s not that Yang Bo didn’t want to do some cool things, such as directly robbing the grocery store owner, but the character in the game is too weak now.

It’s not that I haven’t thought about robbing other players, but other players are more advanced than me.

  Besides remote control is one aspect, the key lies in the physical fitness and reaction ability of the game character.

So the game players in this village saw a game character wearing only pants and a bare upper body.

 “Has this guy been robbed?”

“No, I saw someone on the forum saying that this guy sold his clothes to a grocery store and exchanged them for some brown bread.”

“Don’t this guy know that he can’t stand the game without clothes?”

 “This guy must be a newbie and hasn’t gone to the forum to read.”

“There are a lot of parasites in this game. I think it will take three months for this guy to create a game character.”

 “This kind of rookie happens every year.”

“This rookie picks up rocks, does he want to use them to hunt?”

“Haha, I had this idea at first, but later I found that the character attributes in the game were too poor, so it just wouldn’t work.”

“I’m afraid this guy has never been exposed to ancient history and has no idea how ferocious the prey in this game is, and if he is not proficient in skinning skills, the value of the prey will be greatly reduced.”

 “I’m afraid this guy will understand later.”

“Before the game started, I thought hunting was easy, but I didn’t expect hunting to be the most dangerous.”

Yang Bo changed his belt to some black bread, and then picked up a few stones of suitable size by the river.

You can’t bring too many stones. Carrying too many stones will increase the load and increase the cost of the character.

Yang Bo controls the game character and walks toward the nearby mountains while eating.

 To find prey, you must find a good observation point.

The surrounding farmland is green. I don’t know the names of these crops. The leaves look a bit like soybeans, but they have an ear in the middle and the seeds on them are very small.

"I..." Yang Bo soon discovered that something was wrong, because the game prompted a parasite. If he looked carefully, he could see large mosquitoes flying next to his character.

Yang Bo quickly picked up a branch and beat him continuously, but there were more and more mosquitoes around him.

“I’m not going to be a joke in this game, am I?” The mosquitoes around him were not afraid of the growing number of branches in the hands of the game character, which gave Yang Bo a bad feeling.

Then he quickened his pace and headed towards the distant mountains. The game kept prompting that he was attacked by parasites, and then his blood volume was reduced.

“…!” Yang Bo used his long-range photoelectric superpower to check and found that there were probably hundreds of large mosquitoes around the game character.

Yang Bo's eyes lit up when he saw a ditch. Then he came to the ditch, dug out mud from the ditch, and smeared it on his body.

Some gamers who were watching the joke in the distance were also surprised when they saw this scene.

 Because many gamers did not believe that this game was a very real environment at first, many gamers made a lot of jokes.

 But I didn’t expect this guy to think of a way so quickly. Applying mud on his body can indeed reduce the attack of parasites.

"I don't know if the virtual helmet in the Aqualan Empire uses neural networks. If you use neural networks to connect, you can feel the pain." After ten minutes, Yang Bo looked at his game character and saw that his body was covered in mud. , I muttered in my heart.
