This Game Is Too Realistic

Accompanied by bursts of piercing sounds, dark red tentacles pierced through the crawler's body like lightning.

The black blood dripping mouth let out a hoarse roar, trying to break free from the shackles of the tentacles. However, soon another tentacle galloped over, piercing through its forehead.

Black blood splatter.

The forehead, which was hard enough to hold a 7mm bullet, was pierced by this seemingly soft tentacle.

Luo Yu stared dumbfounded at Xiao Yu, who was drenched in black blood, and the creeper who was poked into a shower head by its tentacles, his eyes gradually changed from surprise and surprise to fiery enthusiasm.

This way of fighting is somewhat curious.

But it doesn't matter!

It's over!

Hahaha! My big boy! You've finally grown up! Luo Yu walked forward overjoyed, and reached out to pat Xiao Yu's head.

Being touched on the forehead by a person close to her blood, Xiaoyu made a cute 嘿嘿嘿嘻 sound from her mouth, and rubbed his hand.

That looks like a coquettish cat.

This slippery touch does feel a bit like a hairless cat.

Although Luo Yu couldn't accept the avant-garde look of this SSSR-level favorite at first, but after a long time, he got used to it.

Can kill a creeper with bare hands!

Already very strong, okay?

You can try Tyrant next time!

Just when Luo Yu was happy that she had found the secret to raising a baby, Xiao Yu had already jumped to the side of the creeper she had just hunted down, and began to feast on it.

And before that, it had already eaten three of them!

This guy's appetite seems to have increased again.

Remember the first two creepers were enough for him to eat.

Now I have to eat four to five a day.

Luo Yu touched his chin with great interest, took out his notebook and flipped through a few pages, writing down this clue.

[On the 11th day, the amount of meals doubled, but the volume did not change significantly. 】

But at this moment, he suddenly made an even more astonishing discovery.

On the surface of Xiaoyu's skirt-like scarlet fungus, gray-brown hardened cuticles grew out of nowhere.

The largest piece is about the size of half a palm, and the small one is only as big as a thumb, like a knight's armor.

Since the area where the cuticle grows is not very large, it cannot even be found without looking carefully.

Luo Yu reached out to touch it curiously, and then scratched it tentatively with the dagger.

Xiao Yu, who was only caring about eating, didn't respond, apparently didn't feel any pain. No matter how hard he tried, the surface of the cuticle still didn't leave any scratches.

Sensing the strength of this organic armor, a look of surprise soon appeared in Luo Yu's eyes, and he excitedly recorded this discovery in his notebook.

[On the 11th day, grow organic armor! It is suspected that the armor area will continue to increase with development! 】

After closing the note in his hand, Luo Yu looked at Xiao Yu, like a very happy old father.

Xiao Yu... grow up quickly!

It's up to you to advance to the T0 powerhouse!

...

B4 floor browsing room.

Someone also had a fatherly smile on his face.

But it wasn't because of Xiao Yu's change, but because of the books sorted out by the Merchant Union.

With the help of the little princess from the Honey Badger Kingdom, the Merchant Guild's recent work of organizing books has been significantly accelerated.

These books written in the prosperous era and even the previous era not only brought a lot of help to his work, but also greatly helped other managers of the alliance.

As the size of the alliance becomes larger and larger, the problems to be considered are also increasing exponentially. Although many things can be covered in one sentence, the specific process of solving the problem is too large to use even the length of a book. Difficult to describe in detail.

The content of these books on the bookshelf is the experience of the predecessors on how to do it, and what may happen after that.

Although the era of prosperity has come to an end.

But these wealth, which is more precious than gold, should not be buried there.

Standing next to the bookshelf and flipping through the books just sent by the Merchant Union, Chu Guang suddenly found a piece of post-it note inside.

There is a line of beautiful handwriting on it.

It should be left by Aphne.

[It is written in the book that people distribute materials through the market, and the market makes people slaves to money. Why don't we adopt a more efficient way to coordinate and allocate the resources that everyone needs? 】

Unexpectedly, the little girl holding a picture book would be interested in such boring academic issues.

Surprised, Chu Guang couldn't help smiling, picked up a pen, and wrote his notes on the blank space of the sticky note.

[A person may become a slave to anything because of hope, not just money, but also beauty, health, faith, honor or power... But this does not mean that it is absolutely wrong. If we were only satisfied with filling our stomachs and multiplying, no one would travel over mountains and mountains to find fire, let alone discover how to make fire with flint and sticks, and our civilization would not appear. 】

[The distribution of resources through religious power and royal power is not more noble than the distribution of money, and of course the reverse is also the same. In essence, they are all tools for allocating resources, and people will always find better ones on the road to explore the future, and then discard the old ones that are no longer useful. 】

[But you are right to be vigilant, I am surprised that such thinking can occur at your age. Even if hope is not necessarily a bad thing, people should always be vigilant not to indulge in it, so as to forget the original intention and ignite the entire forest in order to continue the hard-won fire. 】

[Especially when you hold fire, or hold power. 】

If Summer asked himself this sentence, Chu Guang thought that he might not tell him all his thoughts without reservation.

It's not that I'm worried about being learned by him.

If he could really reform himself, it would be a good thing for the survivors there to carry out some reforms in the honey badger kingdom.

I'm afraid that this guy is like a chameleon, who has figured out the alliance's way of doing things but still uses the same old way, playing with himself, it's really hard to guard against.

As for Aphne, it was different.

She is just eighteen, and she is a girl. She may be appointed in the Alliance, but after returning to the Honey Badger Kingdom, she will most likely be a vase.

Even if she learns something, Chu Guang is not worried about any negative impact, but may influence the next generation of the royal family through her.

Using the economy and education to complete the changes to Luoxia Province is itself part of the alliance's post-war reconstruction plan.

Several kingdoms in the desert have not declined to the point of hopelessness, and will even usher in a period of prosperity due to post-war reconstruction. Therefore, mild improvements are more suitable for them than radical changes.

Clip the note paper back into the book.

Chu Guang was about to put the books back on the bookshelf when he suddenly realized that this was not a place where he could borrow books casually, so he slapped his head and tapped on the VM.

Soon, footsteps came from the door of the reading room, and then a crisp bell rang.

Please come in.

At the same time that Chu Guang spoke, the alloy door opened.

Lu Bei, the captain of his personal guard, walked in from the outside, with his right fist on his left chest, and gave a neat military salute.

My lord, what are your orders?

Chu Guang walked over and handed the book in his hand.

Send it to Honey Badger Kingdom's office on Embassy Street for me, and hand it over to Miss Aphne Honey Badger there.

When Lu Bei heard this, his eyes immediately shone brightly, his back straightened, as if he was holding some treasure, and he took the book with both hands.

Guaranteed to complete the task!

Chu Guang was sure that his feeling was right, this guy must be going to his grandma's house, so he coughed softly and said.

I don't want to hear strange rumors.

Lu Bei stood up straight with a serious face.

I swear to you with my life! If there are any rumors about you and Miss Aphne, you will kill me!

It doesn't have to be like this.

Chu Guang looked at Lu Bei with piercing eyes, not knowing whether to laugh or cry.

This young man doesn't have any hair on his own, but he cares about other people's gossip.

Perhaps, I should change to a more mature and stable captain of the personal guard.

Recently, the number of survivors and players in the alliance has increased a lot. He is considering setting up the third army of the alliance to accommodate those lone wolf players who don't want to join the player army and prefer to hang out with NPCs.

Chu Guang intends to transfer Lu Bei to the Third Corps.

Although a little younger, his loyalty is obvious to all in the league.

Watching his captain of the personal guard go out, Chu Guang was about to go back to the bookshelf when Xiao Qi's voice suddenly came from beside his ear.

Master, there seems to be a new change in the mother body you let player Luo Yu cultivate.

Xiao Yu?

OK!

Hearing the affirmative answer, Chu Guang's heart moved slightly, and he went back to the computer and sat down.

Almost as soon as he sat on the sofa, a light blue holographic screen opened above the computer pen.

The picture captured by the hummingbird drone was also presented to him at the same time.

Looking at the ferocious mother on the screen, Chu Guang showed a surprised expression on his face, and said after thinking for two seconds.

Speak to Heya and arrange a physical examination immediately! Prepare to check Xiaoyu's evolution stage!

Solving the slime mold on layer B6 requires Xiaoyu to devour the brood there, and the prerequisite is to let Xiaoyu understand the concept of hunting and master the ability of hunting.

Now it clearly meets this condition.

However, whether other conditions are met requires further research.

Sitting on the coffee table, Xiao Qi swayed her calves, imitating the captain of the personal guard who just came in, and gave a playful military salute to the alliance.

receive!

...

The office of Honey Badger Kingdom is located at the corner of Embassy Street. Due to the distance from the core area, the area here is larger than the office in Boulder City.

Its main building is a small three-story bungalow, with two palm trees commonly seen in oases planted in the yard—a gift donated to the royal family by merchants in the Kingdom of Honey Badgers.

Although Oasis No. 3 has been reduced to an occupied area and the honey badger royal family has been exiled, it is still their hometown for the people who used to live there.

Therefore, there are often survivors who were exiled from there to the southern part of the River Valley Province, donating money or things to the honey badger royal family.

Although most of them were worthless things, the acting king Summer ordered the staff here to accept them.

After all, that's what everyone wants.

What's more, they are dependent on others now, and those who can still think about them at this time are loyal and good buddies.

Hearing the sound of knocking on the window, the old gatekeeper in the guard booth yawned and raised his sleepy face from his elbow.

Glancing at the book in the man's arms, he thought he was here to donate something again, and it didn't look like it was worth anything.

But thinking of Lord Summer's order, as a servant loyal to the royal family, he still replied vaguely.

name?

Leader of the Alliance Guards Corps, Lu Bei!

Although his voice was lowered, the old guard could still hear the words Guard Corps and Corps Commander clearly.

The drowsiness swept away from his face in an instant, and the old man looked like he was ten years younger, he stood up from the chair with a bang, his eyes widened and he said.

You, you are from the Guards—

Seeing him suddenly speaking so loudly, Lu Bei quickly stopped him.

Hush! Why are you yelling so loudly? Keep your voice down!

Suddenly realizing his abruptness, the old servant quickly said with an apologetic smile.

Yes, yes, I was offended by my stupidity, may I ask... what is your business here?

The Guards Corps is the personal guard of the manager, and it is also the shadow of the manager. This is well known in the alliance.

The commander of the guard regiment appeared here, no matter what it was for, he was sure it was not a trivial matter.

It's not a question of offense, it's the manager who told me that my coming here must be kept secret, otherwise why would I change clothes and come here!

Tightening the brim of the hood, Lu Bei corrected his statement with a serious face, and then revealed the book in his arms.

...My lord also entrusted me to deliver this book to Ms. Aphne Honey Badger.

The old servant seemed to understand something, and his face suddenly showed a very excited expression, and he quickly reached out to pick it up, but Lu Bei took a step back.

Where is Miss Aphne? He asked seriously, The manager told me to hand it over to her, she'd better come down and get it.

The old servant said quickly.

Miss, she hasn't returned from the Merchant Guild yet. It's a task taught to her by the manager. Don't worry, when she comes back, I'll hand over your lord's things to her immediately!

Lu Bei hesitated for a while, but thought that it would not be appropriate for him to stand here and wait, and he was afraid that he would miss it when he went directly to the Merchant Guild, so he nodded.

Then you should remember it well, be sure to hand it over to her!

Just after finishing this sentence, Lu Bei suddenly thought of something, and quickly added something later.

Also, don't tell anyone that I've been here today!

Yes! Don't worry! If I dare to say another word, even if you don't blame me, His Majesty the King will not spare me.

Looking at Lu Bei with a serious face, the old servant was even more convinced of the guess in his heart, and kept nodding, the corners of his mouth were so happy that he couldn't close his eyes.

If it's a serious matter, do you need to be so secretive?

It must be because of indecency!

So I am ashamed to let others know!

He didn't dare to touch the book, and the old servant didn't even dare to look at the cover. He carefully put it in a drawer and protected it, intending to hand it to the young lady as soon as she came back.

Watching Lu Bei leave, he clenched his fists excitedly, his shoulders trembling uncontrollably.

kingdom!

Saved!

...

Shelter 404, infirmary on B3 floor.

After the anesthesia, Xiao Yu was carried onto the scanning bed, Luo Yu stood beside her, looked at it worriedly, and looked at Chu Guang nervously.

Is it going to be okay?

The gang of bastards on the forum yelled and slashed every day, which made him terrified, and he didn't dare to bubble up during this period of time.

Although he complained that he couldn't go anywhere he was stuck to by this little guy, but if the dog planned to listen to the advice of those guys and balance it out, of course he would be reluctant to part with it.

Don't worry, the inhibitor only has an anesthesia effect and will not affect its health. Chu Guang comforted him and patted him on the shoulder, It will take a while before the experiment is over, you should go back first.

Luo Yu asked in a low voice.

Can I wait outside?

Chu Guang thought for a while, then nodded.

Can.

The alloy door opens.

As Luo Yu left, it slowly closed again.

Xiao Yu, who was lying on the scanning bed, let out an unconscious beep, just like the purring sound of a sleeping cat.

The voice sounded like she was being coquettish.

However, Chu Guang could feel that the emotion flowing in the sound waves clearly contained a trace of anxiety.

It doesn't like this feeling.

Chu Guang looked at Heya, who was busy in front of the console, and asked.

Can the test be performed without anesthesia?

Without taking her eyes off the screen, Heya casually replied.

Of course...but can you guarantee that it won't suddenly go berserk and attack the two of us?

I can protect you.

He Ya bent the corners of her lips and said teasingly.

Oh, although this sentence sounds very safe, why should you bet on that probability?

Chu Guang shrugged his shoulders.

...Okay, what's the result of the analysis?

It's really time you asked, the scan data just came out...

Stretching out her index finger and tapping a few times on the holographic screen, Heya crossed her arms, stared at the chart in front of her for a long time in thought, and said in a firm tone.

The current progress has reached 51%. If this trend continues, it should not take long to enter the next stage.

Chu Guang suddenly asked curiously.

What if we go directly to the next stage?

Heya said without hesitation.

It will be swallowed by the mother nest on the B6 floor in turn. After all, it is like a child now. Even if we give it a lot of resources, it cannot be the opponent of the old guy who slaughtered the entire floor of the shelter... It’s like putting a kid with a shotgun in the same room as a murderous murderer, what do you think it’s going to do.”

Chu Guang frowned.

What if the murderer is incapacitated? For example——

Injecting a large amount of inhibitors? Seeing through his thoughts, Heya said in a teasing tone, If possible, I would like to do it. But devouring is a long-term and continuous process, it is difficult for you to ensure that it is only for certain people. Planting slime mold is effective... It seems that it is about to wake up, you can call that young man back.

Chu Guang nodded, gave up the sudden brain hole, nodded to the camera in the corner, and asked Xiao Qi to open the door of the infirmary.

At the moment at the door of the infirmary, Luo Yu was pacing back and forth anxiously.

At this moment, the door suddenly opened.

Hearing the movement, he immediately looked towards the door of the infirmary, but before he could see clearly, he was hit by a scarlet figure and fell directly to the corner of the corridor.

He almost didn't come up in one breath, Luo Yu stared at the culprit lying on top of him.

What are you doing, are you trying to kill me—

Eep!

A pitiful expression floated on that face, which was becoming more and more human-like.

Looking at the poor look, Luo Yu was about to reprimand it, when he suddenly remembered that he had sent it to the laboratory for so long to be studied for a mission.

An inexplicable sense of guilt arose in his heart, he sighed lightly, and reached out to stroke its head.

Okay, I don't want to either, but the mission... It's something that can't be helped, not to mention it's for your own good. It's hard work to stay in there alone for so long!

Go, take you to eat candy!

Yeeeeee!!!

Maybe it was because she understood his comfort, or maybe it was because she heard Tang, Xiao Yu's face suddenly showed a happy expression, and the tentacles on the back of her head fluctuated like seaweed.

However, it didn't come down from his body, instead it got closer, and the skirt-shaped fungus pressed up like a track.

Luo Yu's face turned blue from being crushed, his eyes turned white, his round eyeballs wanted to fall out, and he almost died on the spot.

Good guy!

You can't see it just by looking at it from the outside!

This weight is at least two hundred kilograms!

Looking at Xiaoyu and Luoyu who were sticking together outside the door, Heya who folded her arms slightly frowned, and suddenly said something.

He shouldn't...have feelings for him.

Chu Guang had a delicate expression.

It's not good.

Normally speaking, after getting along for a long time, even a fishing rod will develop feelings, let alone a living thing.

Heya sighed and scratched her silver-white hair.

It's better not to be like that, mutant slime mold... At least according to my observations, the minds of these creatures are as unstable as their DNA. They don't have parents, relatives, friends, and a series of complex concepts that only human society has. , the so-called closeness is probably just an illusion. You should have noticed, it doesn’t even taboo to prey on its own kind.”

Well, Chu Guang nodded, but the closeness in blood is also a fact, and so far, it has not shown a strong aggressiveness towards people.

Heya glanced at him.

But what about after swallowing the brood on layer B6? It will always absorb some of the things that originally belonged to that brood...you know what I'm talking about.

It's not just fragments of genetic material that are absorbed.

It also includes part of the memory, knowledge, experience, instinct of the devoured person... or something that is abstractly called soul by the organism.

In fact, the reason why Xiao Yu can learn to hunt is not what Luo Yu thinks, he taught it by constantly hunting and killing reptiles.

It is a more primitive and direct method——

That is, through its digestive system, it digests the flesh and blood of those prey.

In fact, Xiaoyu's attack method is to use the tentacles to imitate the bullets of the rifle, inflicting penetrating damage on the creeper.

Even the aiming position was almost the same as Luo Yu's shooting habits.

And this part of knowledge comes from the devoured memory fragments about death. Those evolved armors also came from those memories——

'The prey died because they were unable to defend themselves against penetrating damage. '

‘So it needs armor that can resist bullets. '

This is also the scariest place for those slime molds.

They learn from the carcasses of their prey, and learn from life and death at the same time.

As long as they need to, they can survive in a vacuum, and even resist the impact of metal fragments at several times the speed of sound!

And as long as some tissues survive, no matter how serious the injury is, no matter what method is used, there is always a way for them to come back to life.

It is no exaggeration to say that they have controlled evolution and ascended to a field that human civilization does not understand for the time being.

Chu Guang thought for a moment.

What is your suggestion?

Heya shook her head.

I don't know... Of course, the plan to clean up the B6 layer will continue. I need the research equipment there. No matter what method is used, the slime mold there must be cleaned up. However, I suggest that it is best to give up the idea of ​​domesticating them. idea.

Chu Guang asked immediately.

Is there any scientific evidence?

Heya shook her head again.

There is no evidence that it is impossible, but the probability of success is very low.

This time Chu Guang pondered for a little longer.

Looking at the two figures outside the corridor, he thought for a long time, and finally spoke slowly.

I trust my residents.

Like they trusted me.

Heya couldn't help asking.

But what if something goes wrong?

Suddenly, as if he had figured it out, Chu Guang smiled faintly.

Just solve the problem.

Wiping their ass is also one of the jobs of managers.
