This Game Is Too Realistic

Jungle, beach, and sea!

Grandpa is back!

In the cabin of the airship, Fang Chang looked at the pleasant scenery of Chips Harbor through the glass window, and the corners of his mouth could not help but curl up into a secretly happy smile.

good.

This time, I can finally live the addiction of the city lord.

But that being said, in fact, he is not the only one who has the final say on this fries port.

Small development projects are mostly subcontracted to various specific units or institutions, while large development plans and project approvals are jointly decided by the board of directors of Baiyue Strait Development Co., Ltd.

This joint-stock limited company established in Dawn City is currently jointly held by several players who are interested in developing the Baiyue Strait. The shares are divided according to the proportion of investment, and the coast of the Baiyue Strait is developed under the framework of the alliance law.

As for the Niu Ma Group, it is mainly responsible for infrastructure construction and logistics and transportation.

And that's what they do best.

The two airships hovered above the Fries Harbor one after the other, and then slowly lowered their pods.

Seeing Fang Chang coming down from the gondola, Daoxia Liuren, the construction project manager, stepped forward and glanced at the airship behind him.

Good guy, you bought another one?!

Why did I buy another one? It belongs to the scientific expedition team! In the future, the work of recovering the salvage will be handed over to those professionals. We mainly transport goods.

Fang Chang patted the brother on the shoulder with a smile, then brought him to the pod, pointed to the boxes of goods unloaded from the pod and said.

...I bought these good things, ten sets of scorpion-style engineering armor and twenty-five cross spider robots, and I leave them to you!

Hearing these words, a surprise expression appeared on the face of Liuren under the sword.

The performance of the Weeter-style engineering armor in the No. 101 camp and the urban reconstruction project in the southern part of Xizhou City is obvious to all.

That thing can be called a masterpiece of personal construction auxiliary equipment, the crystallization of two hundred years of construction experience in shelter 100!

It is like an SCV that can shuttle freely in complex terrain. It can not only switch the tools needed by workers according to construction tasks, but also provide them with visual digital guidance services.

If the K-10 Iron Wall exoskeleton is the pinnacle of heavy-duty exoskeletons for battlefield use, then the scorpion engineering armor is the K-10 Iron Wall exoskeleton specially designed for construction workers.

With the cross spider robot that can transport materials straight up and down on the vertical wall, if other construction units can keep up, a group of ten engineering teams can even exert the work efficiency of a construction team of hundreds of people. Professionals who have worked in the civil engineering industry for many years were greatly shocked after going to the site for inspection.

It is precisely because of the excellent construction performance of this set of equipment that its price has remained high. Not only players are rushing to buy it, but NPCs are also placing orders, and even the construction companies of Ideal City are full of interest.

I didn't expect this guy to come here with a whole set of equipment!

Can't wait to go forward, Daoxialiuren hastily asked the staff next to him to help open one of the two-person cargo boxes.

Looking at the crab-shaped engineering armor, he was so happy that he couldn't close his mouth. However, he was excited for a while, and soon realized a new problem.

Wait, I remember that you need to be trained to use this thing?

As if he guessed that he would ask this question, Fang Chang said with a smile as if he had been prepared for a long time.

Don't worry, I have also hired trained workers, and they will come down in a while. Remember to protect their safety. According to the contract, they will only work within the safe area.

That's necessary! Can I let them go out to work? Liuren under the knife said with a smile, Don't worry, just leave it to me!

With you here, I can rest assured! Fang Chang said with a smile.

Brother Dao, like him, is one of the first batch of old players who entered the game. He was a group friend of the cattle and horses a long time ago.

It's just that this guy's gameplay style is too hard-core, or a niche player, and his combat power is mainly reflected on the construction site, so he is rarely noticed by other players.

If it was someone else, he might not be so relieved, but it would definitely be reliable to hand it over to this guy.

The two walked towards the center of the camp.

On the way, Fang Chang suddenly noticed bundles of fur piles tied with hemp rope in the shape of tofu cubes on the cargo pile not far from the beach.

Among them, there are hairy ones and some without hairy ones. They have different shapes and sizes, and there are various types and colors.

Add up to say the least and there must be thousands of pieces!

...Good guy, have you guys hunted so many prey these days?

Seeing the surprised expression on Fang Chang's face, Daoxialiuren made a helpless expression.

It's not that we took the initiative to fight, but those prey brought them up by themselves.

It's okay to send it up by yourself...

When did Brother Guang become so generous?

Fang Chang was surprised, but soon he thought of the rumors he had heard from the scientific expedition team, and said after thinking for a while.

...This rainforest is a bit weird. I heard that the alien and mutant slime molds here are relatives. Maybe there is a brood sitting not far from us. Remember to be careful when you are constructing, and you must pay attention to safety .”

Just don't worry, I will be careful if there is a brood! Patting his arm, Dao Xialiuren said with a smile, But having said that, if I can really dig out the brood, I will It’s a lot of money. Just discovering the location has one million silver coins, and this reward is too much!”

Indeed, even I was moved.

Fang Chang smiled, looked at the pile of furs, suddenly noticed the blood and mucus on it, and asked in his heart.

By the way... are these untreated raw hides?

The man under the knife nodded.

I guess it takes a lot of time to process these raw hides. I heard from players who are in the fur business that the salt in the camp is almost sold out. This is still by the sea.

Fang Chang was stunned.

Is that an exaggeration?

No, Daoxialiuren said helplessly, I think they have opened two more salt fields recently, but manpower is still a problem. I heard that those who are in the fur business are wondering whether to send raw hides back to Shuguang Find someone to process it in the city.

There are only more than 300 players in Port of Chips.

Although the Niu Ma brought more than 200 good brothers who came here admiringly, many of them were dead and resurrected before, and this number of people is not even enough for the construction team and the scientific research team.

What's more, hiring players to do the delicate work of leather processing is somewhat overkill, and it is not economically suitable.

If this is sent back for processing, I'm afraid the road will stink... Fang Chang thought for a moment, then suddenly his heart moved, and he looked at Liuren under the knife and said, By the way, isn't there someone with Tail and the others?

Keeping people under the knife: You mean... those Moon Clan refugees?

Fang Chang smiled slightly and said.

The work intensity of these tasks is not high, so it should be no problem to entrust them to those people. And it's not just tanning leather, there are also some prey processing tasks. If they can be entrusted to NPCs, it will not only save costs, but also save money. More high-quality labor freed from those simple and repetitive tasks ... you know what I'm talking about.

Daoxialiuren looked at the guy in front of him with a strange expression.

When he heard these words, he always had the illusion that this guy's way of thinking was more and more like an NPC he knew.

Is there something on my face? Seeing that the man under the knife had been staring at him without saying a word, Fang Chang reached out and touched his face, but he didn't find anything.

Having come to his senses, Daoxialiuren coughed lightly, cleared his throat and said.

It's nothing, I just think...you have a good idea.

This idea is really good. Although the facilities of Chip Harbor are still a bit rudimentary, at least the walls have been repaired.

As long as you don't leave the camp, your safety is still guaranteed.

I'll go to the forum to ask their opinions in a while... By the way, there is one more thing. Halfway through the talk, he suddenly remembered another thing.

Fang Chang cast him a questioning look.

What's up?

About the work of clearing the rainforest, he paused for a moment, scratching his head, and said in an uncertain tone, According to the reports of some construction teams, they found that this forest has a peculiar self-healing.

Fang Chang frowned slightly.

Self-healing?

Liuren under the knife nodded and continued.

I don't know if this expression is accurate. In short, the situation is that the area they just cleaned up the next day found that some shrubs, grass leaves and vines had grown again when they checked the area the next day. It’s the same thing that spread out in the forest. At first I thought it was the construction teams who took over the task being lazy, but similar situations appeared in various work areas... This is very strange.”

It's not surprising in itself that most forests naturally expand toward areas of fertile soil when there's plenty of rain and light.

However, this kind of thing is often carried out in units of years, and only by observing the years as a time scale can we find some clues.

But this tropical rainforest is different.

It seems to be alive, recovering the wound at a speed visible to the naked eye...

Looking at Fang Chang who was lost in thought, someone under the knife suggested.

I suggest that when you go back next time, mention this matter to the Union Institute of Biology and see what they think.

Fang Chang nodded solemnly, and turned his gaze to another airship in the sky.

There's no need to wait to go back, they came with the scientific expedition team.

Just report the situation here to them later.

...

At the same time as the two airships arrived at the potato fries port, a dry bulk carrier loaded with cargo was slowly leaving the rough Borneo Sea and sailing into the quiet Baiyue Strait from the west.

... just watch for me for a while.

Yawning and coming out of the cab, the old man in a brown jacket gave the door behind him to a guy in a white shirt, and he went to sit on the recliner under the gangway, picked up and put it in a plastic basket next to him. After taking two sips from the unfinished beer bottle, he squinted his eyes and blew the sea breeze.

Usually, he would never allow others to move his boat, but there was an exception when it sailed to the Baiyue Strait.

Compared with the open Borneo Sea and the southern waters, the strait that runs through the Baiyue Province can hardly be called a sea, but more like a peaceful river.

Coupled with the fact that there are reference objects on both sides of the strait to determine the course, it is still a bit difficult to deviate to the point where the ship can be driven back.

It was precisely because of this that he handed over the job of sailing the boat to the young men under his command, while he came down to relax for a while.

The old man's name is Song Haining, and he is a resident of the ring island, but he has lived in Yinyue Bay much longer than on the ring island.

Of course, the sum of the time he spent in the two places was definitely not as good as when he was floating in the sea.

Years of wind and sun made his face look like a freshly baked rag, and it was the kind that was black from the bottom of the pot.

As long as he can remember, he has been working on the ship with his father, and he didn't have his own cargo ship until he was thirty.

And now this Northwest Wind has been with him for twenty years.

Whenever he saw the mottled rust stains on the deck, he couldn't help but think, maybe it's time for him to seriously start thinking about retirement.

In the wasteland, the age of fifty is definitely considered an advanced age...

It's still so quiet here.

Walking to Song Haining's side, the young man in a gray jacket put his arms on the railing of the ship's side, and said a word with a smile.

His name was Mojavey, he was a merchant in Silvermoon Bay of the Hump Kingdom, and he was also the owner of the 5,000 tons of iron ore and coal mines on the cargo ship, as well as the employer of 30 mercenaries.

Recently, the Southern Islands Federation and Vault No. 70 have been fighting fiercely. The sea mining stations have been closed due to the impact of the war. However, the production of the factories on the islands cannot be stopped, and the prices of various resources are almost rising.

Although there is a lot of risk in doing business in this sea area, there are still many people who are not afraid of death and decide to take this muddy water.

For example, this is one of them.

Song Haining didn't know his details, but the possibility of problems with the sales introduced by the port was not high, and it was a route he was familiar with.

Even if the guy seems a little off line occasionally, he doesn't care, as long as the dinars are enough.

Hearing the voice from the side, the old captain who squinted his eyes to see the scenery smiled faintly, and put the empty beer bottle aside.

I wish it was always this quiet here.

Most definitely!

The man showed a confident smile on his face and continued, Before I went out to sea, I asked someone to do a fortune telling! The fortune teller told me that as long as I keep going in the direction where the sun rises, and then move forward...... The earth is there waiting for us.

The land covered with gold...

Hearing this interesting statement, Song Haining couldn't help smiling, raised his eyebrows and glanced at the thin sunlight, and then returned his gaze to the emerald green shore in the distance.

He has been busy coming and going in this sea area for most of his life, and he has never heard of any island covered with gold.

As for the land on both sides of the strait?

That's not to mention.

There can never be treasure hidden in that dense rainforest, only death.

Even if the supplies of the ships traveling to and from this sea area are exhausted, they will never consider going to the shore to try their luck. The forest there is like the mouth of a monster that will swallow anyone who tries to penetrate into it.

...you should take the fortune teller aboard, so we can ask him how far the golden land is.

Song Haining lazily replied.

However, just as his words fell, two inconceivable exclamations suddenly came from above the gangway.

Front! Look at the sky!

what is that?!

heaven?

Hearing the voice from above the gangway, Song Haining and Mo Jiawei who were staying on the deck were both taken aback.

The latter was the first to come back to his senses, and exclaimed in surprise, Goddess Yinyue is here, and hurriedly ran towards the gangway.

Did the prophecy come true?

Looking at the overjoyed guy, Song Haining had a weird expression on his face.

Although he instinctively didn't believe in mysticism, he still stood up from the recliner and followed the Yinyue Bay businessman up the ladder.

What did you see? What's up in the sky—

Walking to the guardrail of the watchtower, Song Haining was about to ask the yelling sailor what he had found, but stopped talking halfway.

Looking in the direction the seaman was pointing at, his eyes crossed rows of cargo boxes full of ore, and two white spheres floating below the clouds quickly came into view.

Because of the distance, the thing looked as small as a balloon, but he didn't think it was just two balloons.

That thing is an airship!

But why is the airship here?

Just when Song Haining was in a daze, Mo Jiawei at the side cried out happily.

Airship! It's an airship!

I know that thing is an airship...I want to know why there is an airship in this ghost place!

After recovering from the surprise, Song Haining's face didn't show any excitement, instead a trace of worry or fear gradually appeared on his face.

The southern seas are not peaceful now. The Federation of the Southern Islands and Vault No. 70 have been fighting for more than two months. Both sides are red-eyed and have already abandoned the bottom line.

Before he went to sea, he heard it from the tavern near the Silver Moon Bay pier.

In order to cut off the supplies of the islands of the Federation of the Southern Islands, the submarines of Vault 70 are attacking ships indiscriminately in the southern waters. In the past month, many ships have been killed.

If that airship was an observation airship released from Vault 70, they might have already marked it on the opponent's chart by now.

Pushing open the door of the cab and coming out, the young man who was steering for him hurriedly ran behind him and asked.

Captain, do you want to continue driving?

Before Song Haining could speak, Mo Jiawei, who was standing aside, said excitedly.

I think we should lean over and have a look! Maybe there's a surprise waiting for us there.

Glancing at this guy who didn't realize the seriousness of the matter, Song Haining pondered for a moment and looked at the young man behind him.

...Go ahead.

At this time, it is too late to turn around.

What's more, if they change their course at this time, they will have to detour from the southernmost tip of Baiyue Province, not to mention doubling the voyage, and there is not that much supply on board.

The young man nodded nervously, turned and ran into the cab.

Song Haining took out the binoculars and stared at the two silver-white airships, trying to see some clues from them.

Unfortunately, there is no obvious identification on the airship.

The only thing that made him slightly relieved was that the two airships had wide cargo compartments, and they were obviously cargo airships, not the observation airships he thought.

and--

The rough design doesn't look like it came from Vault 70, maybe it was something made by the Federation of the Southern Islands.

But then the problem came again.

What did the Federation of Southern Islands release balloons in the Baiyue Strait?

Song Haining couldn't understand it.

While he was staring closely at the two airships, the cargo ship Northwest Wind continued to move forward, constantly pulling in the distance between the two airships.

When the horizontal distance between the two sides was less than three nautical miles, a scene he had never seen before suddenly appeared on the yellow-green coastline.

He wasn't alone in noticing what was happening on the shoreline.

The sailors and mercenaries standing on the side of the ship watching the excitement almost unanimously let out more surprised exclamations than before.

Is someone there!?

And there are not many!

Spirit of the Sand Sea...are they dying?!

There are no boats on shore.

Those people should have come down from the airship.

Staring blankly at the camp on the shore, Song Haining involuntarily opened his mouth wide, unable to speak for a while.

Mogave, who was standing next to him, cried out excitedly.

Port! It's a port!

To say that that thing is called a port is absolutely bragging. This place doesn’t even have a pier extending into the deep water area, and a piece of golden sandy beach is completely original.

However, the rows of tents and iron houses, as well as the surrounding earth walls and sentry towers, really don't look like they were built just now.

A long time ago, there was a rumor in the tavern in Yinyue Bay that the Baiyue province was inhabited by demons exiled by the spirit of the sand sea. No one could stay in this land for a whole day.

Song Haining didn't believe in the spirit of the sand sea, but he firmly believed in the second half of the rumor.

Long ago the Hump Kingdom attempted to colonize this land, but all attempts ended in failure without exception.

Not to mention the settlements of survivors in the southern sea area, many of them had ancestors who fled to the island from the Baiyue province.

Someone actually tried to camp along the Baiyue Strait...

Are these guys desperate? !

Just when everyone on board was surprised, two speedboats flying the flag of the Federation of the Southern Islands approached from the east sea.

Seeing the man on the bow of the speedboat from a distance, Song Haining waved his hand in the direction of the cab behind him, made a gesture to stop the boat, and then shouted to the sailors under the gangway.

Drop the anchor!

The anchor was dropped from the stern and hit the bottom of the sea heavily. With the reverse propeller, the cargo ship was stopped not long after.

The two speedboats split into two groups, one was on guard in the distance, and the other was approaching.

After boarding the deck with two sailors, Mu Da looked at the captain who was approaching, and said concisely.

Routine inspection, please cooperate.

Song Haining skillfully took out the cigarette case, took out a cigarette and handed it up, smiling politely.

Understood, please.

Mu Da took his cigarette, but he didn't take out the match to light it. He just stuffed it in his pocket under the collar, and led the two sailors towards the cargo boxes on the deck.

Seeing the slow movements of those guys, Mo Jiawei couldn't help but walked down the gangway.

We deliver iron ore and coal mines here, so we won't be able to trade with Vault 70, and they don't have a port to unload.

Mu Da snorted with his nose, and replied in a neutral tone.

That's not necessarily the case. If you plan to sell some ruthless goods to them, this is the most suitable delivery point. Even if you throw a box down, no one will find out, right? And the seabed here is not too deep, and there are As a reference, it is also convenient to salvage.”

Mogarvey's eyes widened.

Are you kidding me? We are such a big ship, do that little business?

Fuck?

Can you still play like this?

If I had known about him, I would have brought some ruthless goods that Vault 70 might be interested in!

Mu Da stopped in his tracks and stared at him twice.

Seen by that look, Mo Jiawei took back the words with a sly smile, obediently stepped aside, and at the same time made a gesture of please.

You guys... please go ahead.

Mu Da ignored this guy and continued to lead his men to check the cargo boxes piled up on the deck one by one.

In fact, what he didn't say is that recently his mission is not only to prevent passing ships from trading with No. 70 shelter, but also to intercept refugees who intend to go to the southern waters.

Recently, a cargo ship named Rourou was stuck in their port and couldn't be repaired. More than a thousand people couldn't drive away even if they ate and drank their food.

Although those guys are paying, it is a special period after all, and the supplies on the ring island are not rich.

On the one hand, due to the concern of offending the alliance, on the other hand, it may be that they have unrealistic illusions about those guys. The Governor's Mansion on the circular island did not take strong measures to drive away the cargo ships that were in the port, or cut off the ship. Ship's supplies.

However, they can't just let those meddling benevolent people throw refugees into their homes.

In order to prevent more refugees from being stranded in the port of the circular island, the local governor's office had an idea and applied to the maritime patrol team of the Federation of the Southern Islands.

If a large number of survivors from Borneo Province are found among the passing ships, they will be forced to disembark near the alliance's French fries port.

Don't those guys like to meddle in their own business?

Then take care of it!

But this ship seems to be full of ore, Mu Da looked around and found no one hidden, so he looked at the captain who was following him and said.

I want to look under the cabin.

no problem.

Song Haining smiled, suddenly thought of something, looked to the north bank and asked.

Speaking of which, do you know those people?

Those ones?

Mu Da raised his eyebrows, subconsciously followed his line of sight to the north shore of the strait, and after seeing the scribbled camp, he hastily looked back.

They're from the Union.

alliance?!

Song Haining showed a surprised expression on his face.

You mean...the one in the River Valley Province?

Muda: Yes.

Song Haining was stunned for a while with a dazed expression, before holding back half a sentence from his mouth.

...What are those people doing here?

It is more than 2,000 kilometers away from Hegu Province!

No wonder it came by airship...

Mu Da said impatiently.

Then you'll have to ask them.

Following the patrol officer back to the gangway, Song Haining suddenly saw the restless businessman beckoning his mercenaries to drag an inflatable boat to the deck.

What are you doing?

Clapping his hands and straightening up, Mogarvey looked at the captain walking towards him with a smile on his face.

I'm going to take a closer look at the shore and see what those guys are doing. Remember that divination I said earlier? The land covered with gold! Don't you think that beach looks like it? I have a hunch! Get rich The opportunity is here!

Song Haining stared at him blankly, and listened to his nonsense.

……Are you crazy?

Mogarvey said disapprovingly.

It's a waste of time to stay here anyway, so I might as well do something. Besides, I'm just going up to have a look, and I don't intend to spend the night on the shore.

Song Haining stared at him and said.

The inspection will be over soon. There is nothing to see under the cabin. It won't delay you long. We will continue on our way soon.

Mogave said with a hearty smile.

That's right, I'll go down for half an hour at most, you guys wait for me for a while.

While speaking, he had ordered someone to throw down the inflatable boat with the black iron wood hanging on it, and hastily put a life jacket on himself.

Looking at this guy who is not afraid of death, Song Haining's brows twitched fiercely, but he finally held back his words.

……come back earlier.

he swears.

For the sake of money, this is the last business he will cooperate with this guy.

Mogarvey, holding the ladder with both hands, chuckled.

okay!
