The next morning.
In the tailor shop, a piece of paper was peeled off the wooden board of a newly-worked vine.
“The task...make a suit of clothes for the proprietress of the weapon shop, reward 5 to 10 silver coins?” Teng Teng’s eyes gradually brightened as he read the order from beginning to end.
It only took a second for a perfect design plan to take shape in her mind.
“Okay, leave it to me!”
Putting the note into her pocket, she immediately walked excitedly towards the weapons store.
the other side.
Inside the shelter.
Chu Guang was standing in the residents' hall, facing twenty newbies who had just climbed out of the training cabin, and finished reading the lines he had finally made up.
Maybe it’s because of the long wait, or maybe it’s because there is one more female player this time than last time. This group of newbies is much more honest than the previous group of players. At least no one does something as eye-catching as taking off their pants in public.
matter.
It seems that a series of operations such as gradually raising the reservation threshold, appropriate hunger marketing, increasing waiting time costs, screening high-quality human players, etc. are still somewhat useful.
Of course, it may be because the game is too realistic and you cannot open a trumpet. Thinking of a large group of planners "secretly observing" above your head, everyone still has to worry about their moral integrity.
Let Xiaoqi and Mengxin explain how to play the game, and then Chu Guang took them to the elevator leading to the surface and drove them outside like ducks.
Standing on the land in front of the nursing home, these newbies felt the immersive shock for the first time.
“Fuck...fuck, f*ck, f*ck!”
“This, this is the world of Wasteland OL?!”
“The feeling of the sun shining on my face is exactly the same as the real world. The wind is kissing my cheek. It’s like a dream here! No, it is a dream!”
“The child is crying, today’s technology is too advanced!”
“This is not yet in public beta! What else does the development team want to test? Hurry up and launch a one-stop public beta. Give me the code and I’ll buy it!”
“One word, bunker!”
All new players seem to have similar reactions when they first enter the game.
Chu Guang can understand this situation.
From the moment I received the helmet, my half-joking fun turned to doubt. I almost counted down the most difficult 72 hours while tossing and turning. As my second pair of eyes opened, all my expectations were palpable at the moment when my five senses touched.
became a reality.
Like rebirth.
The impact of this moment cannot be summarized in words.
Stepping on the soil of a foreign world, lightly smelling the fragrance of dust, chasing butterflies in the grass, and embarking on an adventure with an unknown future... Is this the dream of many game fans?
Let alone them, Chu Guang himself has had such a daydream more than once, and one day he will be able to set foot on the soil of the virtual world.
It’s just a pity...
Since I know all the truth, I am destined not to enjoy the fun of the game like them. Perhaps for me, the untouchable reality is virtual.
“Go, warriors.”
“Go and change this declining world!”
“With your hands.”
With emotion in his heart, Chu Guang added three lines of dialogue to the scene.
Then he did not stay here, but gave the time to the players themselves. He carried Xiaoqi to the third floor and placed it in front of the window with the best view... This is the first-class seat overlooking all the players.
At the same time, the open space in front of the sanatorium.
The newcomers who have just stepped into the game world have not had time to take a breath of the air in the wasteland before they are surrounded by veteran players who have arrived on the surface in advance.
“Do you have any brothers with special talents? Raise your hand...what? Do you have one? Damn you, tell me about your talent...What the hell is being calm? Why does it sound so useless?”
“Are there any newbies in the power department? Let’s roll trees together to brush up our attributes! It’s so fun!”
“Boss, I am a power player, how should I play this game?”
Seeing that a newbie finally took care of him, the veteran player was overjoyed.
“Are you from the power system? What’s your name?”
“The construction site boy and the bricks!”
"Damn it, brother, this game makes you understand! Listen to me, power players should cut down more trees, move more bricks, roll up their sleeves and just do it, cut down a hundred trees and rise to LV1! 7~
8 points of strength will make you invincible in the wasteland. If you encounter alien species, just pick up an ax and do it!"
“Well, what if we meet someone with a gun?”
“Just do it and it’s done!”
???
Standing in front of the window on the third floor of the sanatorium, Chu Guang looked down at the players downstairs for a while.
Seeing that the newbies have gradually mastered the tricks of playing this game under the guidance of the experienced players, I couldn’t help but nodded with satisfaction.
very good.
Very reliable.
These beta testers have indeed lived up to their expectations.
The only thing that made Chu Guang feel a little bit regretful was that although this group of newcomers were all obedient, they did not seem to have the Easter egg left by the first generation of managers - a special genetic sequence called "Xenogeneic".
But there are two special talents that interest him quite a bit.
One is "calmness", which increases the basic resistance to negative mental states such as "fear" and "despair" by 50%, and can relieve negative mental effects faster.
On the surface, this talent seems useless, but only those who have experienced actual combat know how important this quality is in combat.
Another talent is "Thermal Vision". The name of the player who holds this talent is [Elf King Fugui], and he has the gene sequence agility system.
Looking at the description of the system alone, this talent is simply magical for night fighting! In a state of concentration, if this talent is actively triggered, the retina will be more sensitive to infrared light.
The specific manifestation is that the heat source in the dark can be seen within a certain range!
Of course, this talent is basically ineffective against "cold-blooded animals".
Chu Guang silently wrote down this [Elf King Fugui], and if there is a need for night battles in the future, he will wear this guy.
In addition, there are several weird talents.
For example, the "temperature intuition" that can sense the temperature of heat sources without contact, the "plant whisperer" that can see the growth status of plants, and the "insect hunter" that can smell the smell of pheromones released by insects, etc.
These talents have little practical significance, but if used in production and exploration, they can play a considerable role.
Chu Guang believes that there is no need for players to come up with their own ideas, and these players can figure out the most suitable gameplay by themselves.
…
North apartment area of Wetland Park.
A team of four is carefully approaching the prey.
The terrain in the urban area is very complex. From the dilapidated tower greenhouse ruins, it can be seen that people in the pre-war society must have lived a very comfortable life.
Wind: "People in the pre -war era are quite enjoyable ... I will open a brain hole, and residents living in the community in the internal test of fruits and vegetables in the tower. This is both their vegetable field and the garden."
Lao Bai: “Who will maintain it?”
"There will always be properties, and it would be good to outsource the venue to specialized companies. This kind of ecological community is quite useful as a reference. The designer who designed this game is a master." Kuangfeng gave a very high evaluation of this place.
I'm quite interested in the design.
“You’d better focus on our prey. I feel that we are very close to it.”
Ye Shi immersed his five senses in the surroundings. From the flowing breath, he seemed to have heard the heartbeat of the prey...one strong and one weak.
Wait, two?
"in front of."
Fang Chang had already spotted the reindeer that had been hit by an arrow and fell to the ground. However, as he was about to move forward, he suddenly found another arrow stuck in the neck of the prey.
neck?
He was stunned for a moment.
Did you remember correctly that the shot you shot was in the butt?
While he was dazed, he met the eyes of the young man directly opposite him.
The two of them were stunned for a moment, and the next second their hands moved in unison, drawing their bows and arrows and aiming them at each other.
"Who are you?"
“NPC?”
The two chattered at each other for a while, neither of them understanding what the other was saying.
Bang Feng and Lao Bai reacted quickly. After discovering Fang Chang's situation, they immediately surrounded him from both sides and reached the side of the young man.
The boy stepped back nervously, leaning against the concrete wall to hide his back.
Fang Chang could feel the murderous aura emanating from the cold light, but he was not afraid and moved forward step by step.
After all, if he is far away, he will not be able to shoot.
“Don’t come over.”
“Put down your weapons, you are surrounded.”
What is this person talking about?
Predator?!
The young man watched the three people approaching him, and thought about how those people caught by the plunderers died. He suddenly felt heartbroken and loosened his bowstring.
Whoosh——
The sound breaks through the air and comes like the wind.
Fang Chang subconsciously turned sideways to avoid the arrow that flew past his cheek, and the feather almost brushed the tip of his nose.
If you hadn't avoided it, you would have gone straight back to the spring!
“Grass! Catch him!”
With a beautiful Chinese curse coming out of his mouth, Fang Chang dropped the carpenter anxiously and angrily, pulled out the steel bars, and filled them up with Lao Bai and Guang Feng.
The young man pulled out the short knife from his waist, with a determined look on his face, ready to fight to the death.
However, a stone flew towards him and hit him in the forehead, knocking him out of consciousness.
“Hurry up!”
Ye Shi, who was holding a slingshot, greeted him, and the three men immediately surrounded him. They knocked the dagger out of the young man's hand with a stick and pushed him to the ground.
"let me go!"
The young man roared angrily and struggled with all his strength, but it was Lao Bai who caught him after all.
The power of tech hunks is no joke.
“Be honest! Damn, this guy’s hands are a bit strong! Fang Chang, what should we do now?”
Looking at the young man struggling on the ground, Lao Bai, who tied him up, looked at Fang Chang next to him.
In Wasteland OL, there is no experience in simply killing people or killing monsters. The experience of genetic sequences increases naturally through battles or exercises.
In other words, the experience of capturing and killing is the same.
Bangfeng checked the young man's package and found that apart from a piece of cake, there were only a few arrows and a finely crafted knife inside.
Shaked his head, he stood up and said.
“Very poor.”
Looking at the young man lying on the ground and glaring at him, Fang Chang fell into deep thought.
“I can’t guess what he is talking about either.”
“Anyway, tie them up first and take them back to exchange for money.”
