This Game Is Too Realistic

The infirmary of Vault 404.

Luo Hua, who was lying flat on the scanning bed, opened his eyes, and what he saw was the silver-white ceiling. He tried to sit up from the bed, but found that the effect of the anesthesia had not faded, and his body didn't listen at all.

Except for the left hand—

Looking at the bionic prosthetic body in front of him, he swallowed involuntarily.

At this time, a strange voice came from the side.

Yo, are you awake?

Luo Hua slowly moved her neck and looked at the strange man standing beside the scanning bed. Just as she was about to ask where it was, she suddenly saw hair-thin silver threads floating on the man's arm.

He recognized that thing, it was a scalpel used for minimally invasive surgery on neurons, and it was common in some large medical devices used for prosthetic body modification surgery.

The only people who will put this kind of thing on the bionic prosthesis are those who are obsessed with the technology of the Prosperous Era to the point of paranoia...

The Adam's apple moved, and Luo Hua squeezed out a sentence.

Are you from the academy?

That's right, No. 404 Sanctuary Branch, I am the dean here.

Taking the cake that Chu Guang drew for himself as a joke to ease the atmosphere, Yin Fang retracted the knife as thin as a hair to the interface on the inside of his forearm.

Looking at the person lying on the scanning bed, he smiled faintly, and continued.

Welcome to Vault 404. In addition to the dean of the college branch, I am also the head of the scientific research team here. By the way, the bionic organ on your body is very interesting. I just opened it and studied it. You should not Don't mind.

Luo Hua said helplessly.

...do I mind being useful?

It's really useless, it's over. Yin Fang teased, and continued, My name is Yin Fang. If there is any problem with your parts, you can ask me to fix it.

Luo Hua...an employee of the Silver Wing Group, Luo Hua looked around with surprise in his eyes, This...is Shelter 404?

Yin Fang raised his eyebrows slightly.

That's right, you haven't been here?

I've been here, I've been here...

Just don't remember the room at all.

Luo Hua looked at the ceiling blankly.

At this moment, he suddenly remembered something, and immediately looked at Yin Fang who was standing beside the scanning table and said.

Where's your manager?

It's just outside the door, do you want me to call him in?

Luo Hua nodded, and just about to say please, the door of the infirmary opened upwards with a bang.

I saw a man and a woman coming in from outside.

He also looked at the beautiful woman with long silver hair, but the one standing next to her was so familiar to him that he couldn't be more familiar.

Chu Guang...

Chu Guang smiled and nodded.

We meet again.

Compared with when we first met a year ago, the young man lying on the bed has aged a lot, and his face is even more weather-beaten. If Yin Fang hadn't shaved his beard for him, the artist's temperament would have been more obvious.

A trace of excitement floated in Luo Hua's eyes, and she struggled to sit up from the scanning bed, but was stopped by Chu Guang raising his hand.

Don't get excited, it's okay to lie down and talk about something. It's hard to wake you up, don't pass out in the middle of the conversation later.

Chu Guang smiled, and continued to ask questions with concern.

How do you feel? Are you feeling better?

It's much better... Luo Hua swallowed, and then said, We found it!

Refuge No. 0? Chu Guang asked thoughtfully.

Yeah! Luo Hua said excitedly, It's in the Great Desert...we found the entrance to that place!

What does it look like?

have no idea.

I don't know? Chu Guang looked at him unexpectedly, Didn't you go in?

A bitter expression appeared on Luo Hua's face.

To be precise, we almost went in...

Chu Guang pondered: ...Because of the Legion?

Luo Hua nodded with a heavy expression.

We successfully found the coordinates of No. 0 shelter, and got the key to enter the shelter from a key person...the one in your hand.

Chu Guang glanced at the silver card in his hand and fell into deep thought.

Luo Hua, who was lying on the scanning bed, paused for a moment, then continued.

They are more difficult to deal with than imagined... Although we have power armor, their combat effectiveness is not weak, and the No. 2 oasis closest to the Great Desert, where the Falcon Kingdom is their vassal.

Facing the tide of soldiers coming in, we had no choice but to abandon the Pioneer, and some of them hid in temporary shelters near the wreckage of the space elevator.

Chu Guang was stunned.

...Space Elevator?!

Well, don't you know?

Luo Hua gave Chu Guang a strange look, seeing the latter nod slowly, so she continued.

Near the equator in the middle of the Great Desert is the site of the Space Elevator of the Renlian era... That thing collapsed two hundred years ago, and its fragments are scattered all over the Great Desert, and the farthest piece even fell to the east coast. But these are not The point, the point is that Vault 0 is in the desert!

Taking a deep breath, he looked at Chu Guang seriously.

Lu Yang... Our captain asked me to go all the way east. No matter what, I must not let the people of the legion get that card.

That is our last hope for ending all suffering on this land.

The index finger and thumb pinched the eyebrows, and it took Chu Guang a moment to digest the huge amount of information.

I will try my best to help you, but the current situation is that the Legion's airships are already under our noses. If we don't deal with them, our people will have to make a big detour to the south to enter the Luoxia Province... you have Is there a way to get in touch with the East Coast side?

A look of anxiety floated in Luo Hua's eyes.

We have already reported the situation to the company, haven't they arrived yet?

Hearing this sentence, Chu Guang's expression changed slightly.

It's here, but there are only more than a hundred people... Are you sure there are enough people?

Luo Hua was obviously stunned.

More than a hundred... how come there are only more than a hundred people?!

Seeing Luo Hua whose eyes gradually filled with anxiety and disbelief, Chu Guang silently nodded and continued.

That's the truth. It's the 26th commando team. It's just over a hundred people. The captain is Yun Song. Although they have 20 power armors, they are seriously lacking in heavy weapons... To be honest, I don't think so many people It’s all too choking.”

This is also one of the reasons why he didn't call those people back to help deal with the Heart of Steel. Those more than a hundred people are useless at all, so it's better to let them go to the west to help first.

What he needs is more support.

Whether it's weapons or technology, he wants as much as he has.

Luo Hua gritted her teeth and said.

One commando is definitely not enough! Not to mention the two 10,000-man teams deployed by the Legion on the west side of Luoxia Province, the standing army of the Falcon Kingdom alone is around 100,000! Even 20 sets of power armor... can't deal with it so many people.

Chu Guang sighed.

I also feel that way.

Especially after seeing the power of the 400mm main gun, he was even more convinced of this idea.

To be honest, he even wondered if something happened on the east coast, otherwise why only so few reinforcements came.

However, now is clearly not the time to discuss these.

After a pause, Chu Guang asked again.

Don't you have any large transport planes or airships?

Luo Hua had a look of embarrassment on his face.

Yes, but here alone is nearly 3,000 kilometers away from the east coast... This distance has far exceeded the maximum range of our 'Electric Ray'.

Electric Ray is a twin-engine transport aircraft equipped by the company. The flight mode can be switched between fixed-wing and vertical take-off and landing, and the maximum range is only 500 kilometers.

Otherwise, Yunsong and the others wouldn't have come over by land.

For a long time, the company has only one survivor settlement, Ideal City, and only maintains trade with other survivor settlements in Yunjian Province. There is no need for ultra-long-distance deployment and combat, and there are no overseas military bases, so There is no technology for ordering large aircraft at all.

It is not impossible to start research and development now. With advanced power technology and energy storage technology, it is not difficult for them to design a practical equipment.

However, whether it can catch up with the current crisis is a question.

Luo Hua fell into deep thought.

After a long time, he spoke.

In short, no matter what, I have to find a way to contact the company...I must tell the people over there about the situation here!

Chu Guang asked.

Do you still have 'Migratory Bird'?

Such a big thing... How could I carry it with me, Luo Hua coughed dryly, and continued, But apart from migratory birds... there is actually an emergency method.

Chu Guang asked immediately.

any solution?

Yin Fang, who had been silent all this time, interrupted suddenly.

Is it an orbiting satellite again?

With a surprised expression on Luo Hua's face, she nodded.

……how do you know.

There was an intriguing expression on Yin Fang's face, and there was a hint of irony in his tone.

It's not the first time you've done this.

Chu Guang frowned slightly, not quite understanding.

Orbiting satellites? What do you mean? Isn't low-Earth orbit already filled with space junk—

Because the outer space orbit is full of space junk, you can always find one or two things that are still usable, right?

Putting down his arms, Yin Fang continued to speak in a teasing tone.

Just upload part of the data to a working satellite, and then use the remaining fuel to guide the satellite to fall near the east coast. The person who picks up the satellite just takes a crowbar or an ax and smashes the lump of iron like a coconut shell. Break it open, and you can see what is written inside... This kind of thing of burning zithers and cooking cranes is only done by them.

Chu Guang was stunned.

Fuck?

Can it still be like this?

Not only Chu Guang was stunned for a moment, but He Ya who was standing aside also showed a dumbfounded expression.

Finally hearing the irony in that sentence, Luo Hua blushed and said.

We don't use it to make calls, it's only for emergency situations.

Chu Guang couldn't help but said.

But...why do you have to let the satellite fall, can't it just be used as a signal repeater?

Yin Fang shook his head.

You are thinking too simply. First of all, the satellites that can be used in this way are not low-orbit communication satellites, but scientific research satellites with longer endurance and more reliable quality. We generally call them... T-series satellites.

Satellites of this type are usually located in higher and wider synchronous orbits. They usually remain relatively stationary with the ground, and can only communicate with the research facilities directly below... and the way of communication is not radio, but a narrower range of exposure. laser.

Chu Guang: Laser?!

Yin Fang nodded and said concisely.

That's right, when information needs to be exchanged, the ground research facility will send a beam of light up, and then send a beam of light down from the sky. You can roughly understand it as hitting a coin with a pistol at a distance of 36,000 kilometers. The size of the transmitter... The confidentiality of this communication method is very reliable, except for the research facility associated with the satellite, you can hardly contact the satellite from other places, let alone know the specific coordinates of the satellite.

Generally speaking, if the connection between the ground communication base station and the satellite is interrupted, this type of satellite will enter a dormant state until it is awakened again. Therefore, in theory, these satellites usually have residual energy, and the remaining energy can satisfy at least one orbit switch.

Chu Guang said thoughtfully.

So you only need to find a ground base station that can communicate with this type of satellite, you can write the data into the satellite, and then guide the satellite to fall...

Yes, so these people burn pianos and cook cranes. Those people on the east coast can be said to be destructive to the use of pre-war civilization relics. They don't understand what sustainable use is. A scientific research satellite that costs tens of millions Just to say hello, tsk tsk...

Yin Fang clicked his tongue ironically.

Although this sentence was aimed at the company, not at Luo Hua who was lying here, it still made the latter blush.

Aren't we discussing the legion issue? Or do you have a better way?

Yin Fang said bluntly.

No, but do you know where to find that research facility?

Of course! There is one in the south of Hegu Province, I remember the coordinates there! Luo Hua looked at Chu Guang and said sincerely, That is a research institute, about 70 kilometers away from Qingquan City... the information in it You should be able to use it, can I trouble you to send someone there?

Chu Guang nodded.

no problem.

It's easy for him.

The distance of 70 kilometers is less than an hour for the Dragonfly transport plane, and a few parachutes are enough.

As for dropping a satellite...

It wasn't his satellite anyway.

It is enough to get the materials in the research institute.

The top priority now is to get the company to send more reinforcements. Of course, it would be even better if they could send more weapons.

The airport in the northern part of Dawn City is spacious enough to accommodate transport planes of any size.

Luo Hua's eyes were filled with gratitude.

Thanks.

Chu Guang said with a smile.

You're welcome, the Legion is our common enemy.

You just need to rest in peace and heal your wounds, and leave the rest to us. Speaking of which, I've got a few more barrels of good wine here, and we'll order it when you recover from your wounds.

Luo Hua smiled weakly.

Haha... Then we have to wait for a while.

The tensed shoulders finally relaxed, and he leaned on the scanning bed, finally showing a relieved expression on his face.

Although his partners far away in the desert are still in crisis, Chu Guang's attitude of full support gave him hope.

Heya, who was standing by the door with her arms folded, suddenly spoke.

Since the operation has been completed...can you arrange for him to be transferred to another hospital? My place is not a place to recuperate.

Although it was called an infirmary, it had already been used as a laboratory by her, and the only scanning bed in the alliance was an indispensable research tool.

Luo Hua had an embarrassed expression on his face.

To bother you.

Chu Guang said with a smile.

Why? But this place is really not suitable for recuperating. I will arrange for someone to transfer you to a ward with a better environment later.

After speaking, he called in the medical staff waiting at the door, and ordered Luo Hua to be transferred to the First Union Hospital on the ground.

The wards there were spacious enough to accommodate several wounded from the previous Enterprise expedition.

As for medical bills...

To say that is too far-fetched.

Yin Fang, who was standing beside him, folded his arms until the medical staff moved the wounded outside the door of the infirmary, still muttering in his mouth.

I knew it……

The guys from the east coast must have a treasure hunt map in their hands!

...

That evening.

A transport plane set sail from the north of Dawn City, carrying twenty-five Burning Corps players, and flew towards the research facility 70 kilometers to the east.

At the same time, in Ruigu City, 150 kilometers west of Dawn City, the White Bear Knights and Death Corps' raid on Vault 79 has also entered the final stage.

The main road to the central research area has been cleared.

Although the alien species and savages continued to attack from other areas, the offensive was obviously not as good as in the first few days.

After all, the alien species active in this refuge are not the slime mold fruiting bodies that are dominated by the hive consciousness.

Their attacks on players are more motivated by the two motives of protecting the territory and hunting. There is no tacit cooperation between different populations, and there will be no large-scale waves.

If it were changed to the city center of Qingquan City, all the alien species in the whole street would swarm up with a single gunshot, even if their number doubled, they would not be able to withstand it...

Mom... this guy is quite strong!

Shaking off the blood on the engineer shovel, the construction boy and Zhuan clicked their tongues looking at the mess in the room, held the assault rifle hanging on their chest again, and replaced the magazine.

Forty or fifty corpses lay scattered in the wide hall, primitive weapons such as spears, bows and arrows were scattered on the ground, and there were also bullet casings emitting green smoke.

An encounter has just broken out here.

The opponent is a group of savages, who seem to be ambushing nearby, and suddenly launched an attack after the players entered the room.

The skin of these people is morbidly pale, but their limbs are unexpectedly strong, and their strength attribute is about 13~15, which is equivalent to the level of the first awakening.

Not only that, their speed is extremely fast, their toughness is amazingly strong, and their dexterity in using their body muscles is like a beast.

Or to put it more accurately, they are beasts, and almost none of the organs in their bodies are the same as humans, but they just happen to look more like humans.

Fortunately, these wildlings only use bows and spears.

Otherwise, it's really hard to deal with.

There is the last 'checkpoint' left in the research area. The front is suspected to be the lair of Death Claws. We are running out of ammunition...

With a rifle on his shoulder, he paddled to the front of the White Bear Knights and continued.

I suggest continuing the strategy tomorrow.

Tail agrees! Huh, I'm almost exhausted!

Tail, who was leaning against the wall, panted heavily, raised his arm and wiped his forehead, but the sweat didn't come off, but the blood on his forehead.

Sisi, who was also panting, glanced at the remaining clips and nodded.

Well... let's continue tomorrow.

There is a day and night cycle in Vault 79, and it will be night in a while.

Looking around, she continued.

There are still a lot of rooms here. Since the monsters have been cleared, why don't we go back after exploring a little bit.

This is the last building from the research area, it seems to be an administrative building or something. While searching other areas earlier, she found some interesting clues.

Before leaving here, she intends to verify it.

Hearing Sisi's proposal, Edge Paddle readily agreed.

Okay, gather in an hour.

OK.

After reaching a consensus, the players spread out to search in the room.

Tail, who was exhausted a second ago, jumped up from the ground with a thud, and led Rourou to nowhere.

Sisi, who had already figured out his goal, looked at the floor plan, walked straight through the hall, and walked up the stairs to the upstairs office area.

Unexpectedly, there is no alien occupation here.

The entire corridor was silent.

What surprised Sisi especially was that, unlike the areas they had passed through before, the doors of the rooms here were all open.

Oh, an unexpected discovery...

Picking the nearest room, Sis carefully checked the safety of the room, and walked in carefully with a rifle in hand.

This is a futuristic office.

The shape of the furniture inside is quite unique, with an area of ​​nearly 20 square meters, only two tables are placed quite luxuriously.

Walking to the nearest table, Sisi glanced at the messy tabletop, and opened the drawer on the right side casually.

There are some personal items inside, including a work permit, and a memory card the size of a thumb.

The interface of the memory just coincides with the VM.

This is... a USB flash drive?

With a look of interest in his eyes, Sisi took it in his hand and looked at it for a while, then plugged it into the VM.

The signal light flickered slightly, and a light blue dialog box quickly appeared in front of her, and was automatically converted into a language she could understand by the VM's built-in translation program.

[Vault 79 Research Log]

[Experiment log: 2129/February/7th]

[Experiment log: ...]

The last log entry is dated July 8, 2178.

Speaking of...

2129 seems to be the first year of the wasteland era?

Rubbing his chin lightly with his index finger, Sisi's eyes became more and more interested, and he clicked on the first log in the list.

[2129/February/7th: The hibernation cabin is opened, and it is not our compatriots who are full of joy, but the program of the shelter, which shows that we are finally heading for the worst ending. The outside world has been destroyed, and here is the last Homeland... Damn, it sounds like a dream, but rubidium atomic clocks don't lie. 】

【I will remember this hopeless and hopeful day. We will fulfill the vow we made three years ago... But can such a whimsical thing really happen? 】

...a whimsical thing?

With a soft murmur in her mouth, her brows were slightly frowned.

That Yongshi did mention that Vault 79 is conducting research on reverting mutated creatures to pre-mutation.

But did alien species exist in the first year of the Wasteland Era?

She vaguely remembered that it was mentioned in the setting of the official website that the time point for the large-scale emergence of heterogeneous species should be half a century after the Little Ice Age?

That is to say...

Is this actually another experiment?

She would not believe everything the NPC said, in fact, she had always doubted the identity of that Yongshi.

Since it is a completely real virtual reality game, is it possible for NPCs to lie?

However, just as she was about to turn to the next article, the alloy door behind her suddenly fell down, cutting off the only exit.

Sisi's face changed slightly, and he rushed over immediately, slamming his shoulder at the door, but found that the door was still motionless.

Without hesitation, she took a few steps back, raised the assault rifle hanging on her chest, and pulled the trigger at the alloy door.

Bang bang two thunderous gunshots echoed in the room. The jumping sparks burst into the ceiling, but the surface of the door did not leave a trace of bullet marks.

She took a deep breath, went to the door and groped for a while, her hands circled into a trumpet shape, and she yelled against the door.

A tail!

Can you listen to me?

no respond.

She put her ears on it, but she couldn't hear any sound from outside.

Tsk...the sound insulation effect is too strong.

With a tsk, Sis gave up the pointless attempt and moved his ear away from the door.

In the shelter, the administrator's authority is absolute - at this moment she finally realized the meaning of this setting.

The crystallization of the strongest technology in the Renlian era is simply not something the retro assault rifle in her hand can penetrate.

I'm afraid it won't help even if I use the grenade on my body.

As long as the administrator of the shelter is willing.

He can even lock the door until the next century.

At this time, Sisi suddenly noticed that the air outlet above his head had no sound at some point, and seemed to have stopped working.

Knowing it in her heart, she whispered,

Are you planning to silence...

That guy probably wanted to kill him a long time ago.

Otherwise he could have locked the door before he came in.

A normal adult consumes 0.75 kilograms of oxygen a day... A room of 20 square meters has a floor height of about 3 meters, which is 60 cubic meters of air.

Carbon dioxide poisoning occurs when the oxygen content is below 10%.

In other words...you can live for about 5 days.

Considering the metabolic rate of the awakened person, maybe two or three days will be enough.

Glancing at the logs on the VM screen, Sisi's mouth suddenly curled into an imperceptible smile.

The time left for myself is inevitable...

Too much.
