This Game Is Too Realistic

Chapter 257 Expedition to Honghe Town!

It was exactly nine o'clock in the morning.

The caravan departed on time.

Black smoke was emitted from the steep exhaust pipe, and ten tracked trucks loaded with munitions started in unison, heading towards the eastern wilderness.

According to the plan, after leaving Changjiu Farm, the caravan will travel eastward along the inter-provincial highway, cross the deserted highway town and battery factory, divert to the southeast, draw a V-shaped broken line on the map, and bypass the In the area controlled by the Bonechewer Tribe, after reaching the Garbage City area, head north to Red River Town.

Because the car is full of goods, people can only walk beside the truck.

But it doesn't really make a difference.

Even if there is still space in the car, no one wants to sit there.

After getting off the inter-provincial highway and heading east, there is no complete road at all. Even if the track's off-road performance is good, it can't stand the road itself.

In addition, all the trucks were loaded with ammunition, the driver didn't dare to drive too fast, and they all crawled on the ground in low gear.

Even if these shells are generally safe, who can guarantee that every bump is normal?

If you don't want to cause major problems, you can only be careful.

In addition to the bumps on the road, the biggest threat is the birds, beasts, insects and snakes lurking in the forest and mud.

Whether it is a burly monster or a myriad that sprints close to the ground, it can pose a substantial threat to the caravan guards who mainly use light weapons.

In addition to these dangerous species, there are also flies with the size of washbasins and mosquitoes with long arms. These mutant creatures that seem to have no fighting power should not be taken lightly.

Some red-headed and green-headed flies have even evolved the ability to attack at a long range-the ability to spray white eggs as thick as a thumb. These eggs usually carry a large number of germs. Although the direct damage is not high, if they hit the wound by chance, the wound may become inflamed, or maggots will grow in the wound. If it is not treated in time, it is easy to lose your life.

Only God knows how many dangers are hidden in this wasteland.

...After the snow field in front, there is a deserted wilderness. Walking beside the convoy, Mole picked up the binoculars and looked towards the southeast. It was probably a small town before, but The houses there were basically reduced to concrete scum, and all that remained was a half-collapsed opera house... We had a deathclaw there before, and there were bones on the ground, whether they were marauders or mercenaries.

In fact, the snow has almost melted, leaving only a thin layer on the ground.

Many places have simply turned into puddles, and a few pinches of green shoots have emerged from the mud.

Life on this planet is far more tenacious than people imagined.

Will we meet? Elf King Fugui eagerly asked.

How could it happen? We're here to deliver goods, not to hunt, Mole put down the binoculars. We'll avoid it later, unless the beast takes the initiative to find it, but this possibility is very small.

Deathclaw's IQ is much stronger than that of monsters, and his intuition for danger is far stronger than that of ordinary aliens.

Unless it is intruding into its territory, Deathclaw rarely takes on a large group of people as an opponent.

There is a high probability that the two sides will live in peace.

There is a one-kilometer radius around Deathclaw's lair, and there is a high probability that you will not encounter any particularly dangerous carnivorous species.

Hearing that they would not meet each other, the faces of several nearby players showed regretful expressions.

Irena: Speaking of which, I haven't eaten the meat of Deathclaw yet...Of course, it's not that I want to eat it, but I'm just curious about what it tastes like.

The indebted big-eyed grinned: Stone hammer, a wasteland gourmet, is indeed Lao Na!

Irena: Fuck off.

The debtor looked down at the sky, looked at the clouds in the sky, and sighed.

One hundred kilometers... How long will it take to go?

Isn't there such a thing as a portal?

Or you can just drive away with one click.

Mole turned on the VM and glanced at the map, pondered for a while and said.

If it wasn't for a detour, it might take two or three days to get there. It would take five or six days to go around this circle.

The construction site boy and Brick protested: Why don't we just kill them? I think it's totally fine!

Big eyes in debt: +1, it's just a group of defeated generals.

Glancing at the two people who were inflated with confidence, they couldn't help but complain while paddling on the edge of the water.

Okay, we're here to deliver goods, not heads.

There is not just one thousand-man team on the opposite side, but a whole three, the total number may be five or six thousand. Even if five or six thousand chickens stand in a row, they still have to be killed for a while, let alone five or six thousand bandits with guns.

These looters came all the way from the middle of the River Valley Province, and there may not be awakened commanders, let alone the commanders of the legion. Some difficulty.

A trace of excitement flashed in the eyes of the edge paddling.

A close fight?

good.

It's on fire!

The indebted big eyes and the construction site boy looked at Zhuan, and the expressions on their faces were suddenly a little subtle.

Are you panicking?

I didn't panic at first, but now I'm a little bit.

By the way, if we die and go back... this journey will not be in vain.

Fuck! Is it too late to change teams now?

Why don't you ask Mole if they still want people?

Paddle on the edge: ???

...

It was just past noon.

Less than four hours after the caravan headed for Honghe Town set off, the caravan returning from Boulder City arrived at the south gate of the outpost.

It happened that when he came back from the task, he looked at the bandaged Feng Feng and Ye Shi, with a surprised expression on his face.

I'll go, why are you two hanging?

Lao Bai said with a smile: When I came back, I was targeted by predators. There were about twenty people, but it's not a big problem.

Although Lao Bai said that the problem was not serious, looking at the expressions on the faces of the other NPCs in the caravan, it was obvious that it was not as easy as he said.

The team leader named Qian Lai still had a terrified expression on his face.

And the guard next to him was even more attractive. He remembered that before he set off, his arm was wrapped with a bandage, and now the other arm was also wrapped.

The face of quitting smoking is full of weirdness: Damn it, those predators can still ambush you?

Fang Chang said.

It can't be counted as an ambush. We found them a long time ago. They obviously knew it and followed us all the way. We can't move fast with the goods, and we can't get rid of them. They may not be sure about our strength, nor Dare to get too close, never make a move, just follow behind to find opportunities.

When we got to the edge of the Fourth Ring Road, I probably felt that if I didn't make a move, there would be no chance, so I finally couldn't help but make a move, and then we fought a real battle in the alley.

Excited to quit smoking.

Exciting! How many did you kill?

Half of it, they ran away halfway through the fight. Lao Bai raised his chin with a smile and pointed to the back of the team. Here, I caught two more.

Next to a two-headed cow, two dejected men in animal skin clothes were tied by chains and hung on the two-headed cow.

On another cow not far away, there were seized equipment hanging from it. Except for a few iron-barrel rifles that were never used by newcomers, there were actually two assault rifles and a grenade launcher inside.

Two caravan guards watched from the side, monitoring their movements.

Ye Shi, who had a bandage on his shoulder, cursed.

MMP, I suspect there are predators in the slums! As soon as I went out, the feeling came!

Kuangfeng said calmly.

There is no doubt, if I were a person in the slums, and I saw a group of chubby businessmen passing by my eyes every day, I would definitely find a way to get some money from them.

Unlike Ye Shi, he was shot in the thigh, but the opponent used a steel-core bullet, which passed directly through his leg, so it was not a big problem.

Regarding what the two teammates said, Fang Chang nodded in agreement.

Indeed, those looters probably came out of the slums. I can even boldly guess that when we entered, they might have been eyeing us.

Where did the raiders in Clear Spring come from?

It is impossible to pop out of the cracks in the rocks.

As the largest settlement of survivors in the southern part of the entire River Valley Province, Boulder City absorbed people from the entire province and even neighboring provinces.

It is impossible for so many people to flood into the city, and there are not so many places in the city to accommodate so many people, let alone so many jobs.

The vast majority of people can only build a shed outside the city and do some jobs that the city people don't want to do. Over time, slums are formed.

The sprawling slums are a hotbed of chaos and crime, not only rich in mercenaries, cannon fodder, and scavengers, but also rich in looters.

I've heard of gangs in the ghetto, and even a looting business, and there's always a black market for things you don't see in the city. Helping to keep an eye on some bully-looking fat sheep is naturally no problem for those people.

Why doesn't Boulder City care?

This question is asked with a big picture in mind, but it is somewhat unearthly.

From the standpoint of Boulder City, you can also ask back——

Why bother?

Anyway, it's finally here safely. Lao Bai looked at Ye Shi, You and Kuangfeng go back to the shelter to save a file, his injury is fine, and you have to go to the infirmary for a minor operation on this injury.

The training cabin has the effect of accelerating recovery. Generally, small wounds with small wounds, even those in the intelligence department, will heal after lying down for a few hours, which is just the time to save a file.

As for some non-disabling serious injuries, under normal circumstances, you will only lie down for a day or two. If it exceeds three days, most players will choose to save a file first, and then make up for themselves.

A mere shot is nothing, just take out the bullet.

At first, Lao Bai planned to use alcohol to sterilize Ye Shi, imitating those NPCs, and helped him take out the bullet.

But helplessly, the position of the bullet happened to be stuck on the subscapular joint.

Lao Bai pulled it with tweezers, but he didn't get it off, and he didn't dare to use too much force to turn a small problem into a big one, so he wrapped it with a bandage.

It was those NPCs who didn't know each other who were made a fuss by the behavior of the two of them.

But no wonder.

One was rummaging over the wound with tweezers, and the other was impatiently urging it to hurry up, the key is that no anesthetic has been used yet.

Such a ruthless behavior, even if it is placed on an awakened person, is somewhat outrageous. Up to now, several caravan guards looked at the two of them with some admiration.

Ye Shi nodded.

Okay, what about you and Fang Chang?

Lao Bai said with a smile.

We still have to deliver the things that everyone ordered, and we have to go to the warehouse manager to hand in a task later.

Thanks to the great sales of Fujiteng's products in Boulder City, they didn't make the trip in vain this time, and they also made a lot of money.

After some discussion, instead of exchanging the 2,000 chips they earned for an exoskeleton, they bought a second-hand hydraulic breaker at an auction house.

This thing can be used to process the coarse material of cement, and it can also be used to break up concrete block waste. If you order from the factory, you need at least 5,000 chips, and if you can buy it with 2,000 chips, it's a mistake.

There are magnetically confined plasma cutting machine tools that can produce some sophisticated instruments, but the inert gas used as the cutting fluid and the fusion battery for energy are not cheap after all, and some heavy equipment outposts are still very scarce.

Exchange the chips into commodities and ship them back to sell to other players. It is a one-shot deal, and at most you will make a difference in price, but if you buy production equipment and ship them back, it will be a steady stream of income!

At present, the demand for building materials in the outpost is soaring, and the answer to what is the version is obvious.

Together, several members of the cattle and horse team decided to add a new cement production line on the basis of the original brick production line, and at the same time produce recycled cement bricks made of concrete waste.

I heard that the cement factory in Boulder City uses the concrete waste that can be seen everywhere on the waste soil. They have already mastered the technology of recycling construction waste.

The next time I go to Boulder City, Lao Bai plans to look in the talent market to see if he can catch a leak and hire someone who understands cement aggregate recycling technology to come back.

It is said that the office can entrust recruitment now, and applications can be made at Luka or the warehouse manager, and the salary can be settled in silver coins, which is very convenient.

In addition to the things they bought themselves, there are about 2,000 chips belonging to other players, some of which have been exchanged for things for them, and some of them are left over.

For example, the share that belongs to the rich woman Fujiteng.

These include a 220kg sewing machine with its own electrical box and intelligent components, and 21 chips.

Delivery to Fujiteng Hut? Ye Shi's eyes lit up, and he said with a smile, Bring me one, and I'll help too.

Help me with a hammer. Kuang Feng rolled his eyes, Look at how swollen your arms are.

Ye Shi: Hey! It doesn't matter in the game, it doesn't hurt anyway!

While talking, Fujiteng had already arrived at the south gate.

Seeing the caravan parked next to the unloading point, she walked up and was about to ask if the goods she ordered had arrived, when she saw the bandages wrapped around Kuang Feng and Ye Shi, she couldn't help asking in a low voice.

Are you guys OK?

Before the wind could speak, Ye Shi next to him called out.

Woooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo.

Fujiteng: Ah?! Then, go to the infirmary quickly...

That's enough, stop pretending, Lao Bai rolled his eyes at Ye Shi, looked at Fujiteng who was at a loss, took out 21 chips from his pocket and handed them over, Your things are in the two hands. A cow is on its back, it weighs more than 200 kilograms, you can’t move it, we will send it to you later.”

Thank you! It was a great help!

Fujiteng nodded gratefully, but he didn't have the nerve to take the chips. He glanced at Kuang Feng and Ye Shi next to him, and whispered.

I don't want the rest of the bargaining chip... just treat it as medical expenses.

Take it.

Lao Bai stuffed it into her hand involuntarily, and said with a hearty smile.

Don't listen to those two guys, it doesn't hurt to get hurt in this game. Besides, we should say thank you. If it weren't for your artwork, we wouldn't be able to afford the big guy behind.

But……

We have already received the agreed remuneration, and it should be as much as it should be. Lao Bai shook his head and said, We don't do such immoral things as extra charges.

Hearing what he said, Fujiteng stopped insisting, whispered a thank you, and silently accepted the 21 chips.

However……

All the coercion was left to Lao Bai alone, and Ye Shi immediately became unhappy.

Hey! What do you mean it doesn't hurt at all! It also feels a little bit, okay?!

Kuangfeng continued with a blank expression.

I have objections. Only Ye Shi pretended to be in pain, but I didn't call out.

Lao Bai smiled awkwardly and scratched the back of his head.

Uh, this... I didn't pay much attention. The main reason is that Ye Shi's acting skills are too exaggerated, and I am too upright. I can't stand him bullying a little girl.

Ye Shi: Get out! I think you just want to pretend! Bah!

Gale: +1

Lao Bai: ???

Looking secretly at the three noisy people, Fujiteng's cheeks felt slightly hot.

always feel...

They seem to have a good relationship.

Knock it, knock it!

Not noticing the unnatural expression on Fujiteng's face, Chang Fang asked strangely when he saw that she had changed into a light leather armor.

Are you planning to go out?

Hearing the voice from the side, Fujiteng who said ah came back from his mind, nodded with a blushing face, and said shyly.

Well, I'm going to visit Boulder City!

Task?

That's right, but it's mainly for inspecting the market! Having said that, Fujiteng's eyes lit up, and he continued excitedly, The cultural characteristics and dressing style of Boulder City are different from any other country in reality. There are some things that you can’t see from a photo, but I’m going to see it with my own eyes!”

Fang Chang nodded in agreement.

Indeed, the content that can be written in the guide is limited after all. No matter how many guides you read, it's better to play it by yourself... But, how do you plan to go?

The road to Boulder is not easy.

On the way back, in addition to the predators, they were also targeted by a group of cave-dwelling beasts hiding in the sewer.

Although it will not overturn, it is also a hard battle.

Before Fujiteng could answer, a nimble figure rushed out from behind her.

The mercenary tail is here!

Sisi, who was wearing body armor and a steel helmet, also walked over from the side and pushed up the helmet that covered his eyes.

Oh! And Sis!

Seeing the energetic two, Fang Chang froze for a moment.

Are you also going to inspect the market?

That's right! Tail wants to be a mercenary!

Speaking of this, Tail sighed old-fashionedly, shook his head and said, Damn it, it's all because the spring water is so useless, luck is all used in the lottery! I didn't go to Chenghonghe Town, so angry!

Sis glanced at her.

But thinking about it from another angle, could it be because we lowered the team's score?

Tail retorted immediately.

How is it possible! The tail is also an awakened one!

The two woke up half a month ago.

After all, it's been a while since I joined the game, the development speed is quite satisfactory, the strength is not too weak, and I can be considered a T2 player if I work hard.

but……

Fang Chang looked at the girl with cat ears next to her.

This should be a rookie, right?

The same to you?

The cat ears on the top of his head shook slightly, and he nodded his head in embarrassment when he was staring at his ears.

I, I haven't awakened... I'm almost there.

I'm not asking this. Awakening is not the key. What I mean is, are you planning to go with them? Fang Chang kindly reminded, The road to Boulder City is still quite dangerous. Look at that By the way, those two idiots are also people of more than ten levels, and they still hurt themselves.

Aw, Sesame Paste nodded vigorously.

It doesn't matter! I, I am also a person who has been on the battlefield!

Although I just reported a letter to everyone offline, it also played a key role!

At least, she is confident that she will not panic.

Seeing the firmness in those eyes, Fang Chang nodded with a smile and said approvingly.

Well! Not bad, very energetic! Come on girl!

games.

Just be happy, no need to think too much.

Even if he died, it was only three days of being on the forum OB, and it was not a big problem. Everyone came from the stage of rookie.

Besides, the manager didn't say that newcomers can't do the task, did they?

As long as there is that determination, anyone can contribute to the great cause of the revival of the People's Federation.

Wait a minute, Fujiteng, is it really okay for you to bring only this few bodyguards? Ye Shi said nervously, Why don't I go too? At least I can be an eye.

Fujiteng repeatedly waved his hands and declined.

No, no, no need to be so troublesome, you should take good care of your injuries, we have perception department in our team.

Just as Ye Shi was about to ask who it was, that sharp voice with a hint of dullness came from the side along with the sound of clanging and powerful steel clashing.

Yes!!

Everyone looked there one after another, and saw an iron can covered with steel plates, striding over here on a meteor.

Hmph, level 12 of the perception system, here is the Awakened! Looking at my equipment, who would dare to say that I can only pick mushrooms! Huh?

The four members of the cow and horse team were stunned, and the caravan guards and guards not far away were also stunned by her exaggerated appearance.

This plate armor...

At least three hundred kilograms, right?

The eyes of the tail are shining.

Oh! That's amazing!! Si, we won!

Sisi froze for a moment, fell silent for a while, and muttered in a voice that only she could hear.

...It will be very troublesome to recycle the VM.

Lao Bai swallowed, and asked cautiously.

Is this... KV-1? Or is it the Miner I?

You can't see it from the outside at all!

KV-1! Yaya proudly said with a sharp-edged breastplate, It cost me a lot of silver coins to build this plate armor! How about it, isn't it amazing?

Lao Bai's expression was a little subtle, and he was embarrassed to speak.

Fang Chang coughed dryly and said.

I blindly guessed it was a mosquito. Only that stupid thing can make this thing. By the way, he didn't remind you...the battery life problem?

Crow blinked his eyes.

Basic battery life? What's that?

Fang Chang: ...

Lao Bai: ...

Gust: ...

Ye Shi said anxiously.

Battery! Have you ever driven a new energy vehicle? Originally, the battery life of the naked KV-1 exoskeleton is about one day, and you directly carry a load of 300 kilograms! Can your battery last until the afternoon?

One thing to say, this tortoise shell is even worse than the manager's previous set!

Don't these people play games with their own thinking?

Learn a hammer from an NPC!

No problem! I'm fully charged! Yaya said confidently, It's only twenty kilometers, and this distance is still enough!

I think you should not be too optimistic about the 20 kilometers, Fang Chang said tactfully, 20 kilometers is a straight-line distance, and the actual distance cannot be calculated at all.

Lao Bai nodded and agreed with this sentence.

Indeed, it's impossible for you to fly there. Anyway, I feel that the road from here to Boulder City is no less than going to Yuanxi Town. Feel it for yourself.

Ah?! Yaya was stunned for a moment, the expression on his face became less confident, and he whispered, Is it so far?

Well, Lao Bai nodded silently, so I didn't wear an exoskeleton.

Yaya was stunned for a moment, and said anxiously.

Then... what to do then.

Lao Bai: If you are of the strength department, it is not a problem to walk directly wearing 300 kilograms of heavy armor. After all, most of the weight is on the exoskeleton. When you need mobility, just turn on the power. If you are from other departments ... I don’t know, anyway, I don’t recommend it.”

Tail looked at her: Why don't you give it to Si? She is a physique!

Sisi gave her a sideways look.

I don't wear that kind of thing.

It's too late to temporarily change the equipment now.

After the pot machine is unloaded, the caravan at the gate will start again in two hours at the latest.

but……

Yaya did not give up.

Everyone also agreed that looking for Boss Xia should be able to rescue him.

Watching the group of people walking towards the base, Ye Shi couldn't help looking at Lao Bai.

Can they do it?

Lao Bai was silent for a while, then shrugged.

I have no idea.
