“Crow Crow can be sure that this bottle of milk is not poisonous!”
After staring at the plastic bottle for a long time, Crow Crow touched his chin with a resourceful expression and came to a definite conclusion.
Chu Guang nodded and took back the bottle.
"Thanks."
Crow Crow asked curiously.
“By the way, what kind of milk is this? Does it taste good?”
Chu Guang answered casually.
“It’s probably milk, do you want to take a sip?”
"want!"
While saying this, Crow Crow kept secretly glancing at the VM on her arm. She heard Teng Teng say that there would be a prompt if the task was triggered.
Strange, why is there no reaction at all?
Chu Guang didn't notice her little thoughts, he just caught a little with the bottle cap and handed it to Crow Crow.
After Crow Crow took it carefully, he moved his nose closer and sniffed it, and an expression that was hard to describe suddenly appeared on his face.
“It smells weird. Is this really milk?”
“Maybe it’s camel milk.”
“?”
What is maybe?!
In any case, in order to increase his favorability and hide his mission, Crow Crow held his nose and drank it. Maybe it was really camel milk, but the taste was difficult to evaluate and it could not be called delicious.
I always feel like I drank it, but I forgot when.
Chu Guang saw that she didn't have any adverse reactions, so he turned around and left with relief.
Looking at the manager’s leaving figure, Crow Crow stood there for a long time. He didn’t blink until the figure disappeared at the gate.
Wait a minute, what about the mission rewards?
Did you forget to give it again?
The young players nearby had noticed the situation here a long time ago, and when they saw the manager walking away, they immediately started shouting.
“Oh oh oh, what did I see?”
“Pass it on, the manager will feed the crows!”
“It’s being passed on, it’s being passed on, the crow is feeding the manager!”
“What?! Boss Crow is being managed”
“You are going to die!”
Crow Crow, who was extremely angry, grabbed a big mushroom and threw it out. The player who was hit by the mushroom picked up the mushroom and ran away.

Forum:
Hands of debt: “666!”
wThere are really mosquitoes: "The planning boss is awesome! (broken sound)"
Xiao Xiaoxiao Bookworm: “Where’s alpha0.6? We need alpha0.6!!”
Irena: "If you plan carefully, I will add a version number to you, and then the warm reminder you see now will become a version announcement. (Funny)"
Scrambled eggs with tomatoes: “People can’t, at least they shouldn’t.”
Elf King Fugui: "Brother, what happened to the book yesterday? Did you find anything in the department store?"
Irena: "I found a hammer, and there was actually a crawler inside. Fortunately, I reacted quickly. Fang Chang said that there might be a shelter hidden there, and we plan to take some time to chew it down."
Canyon Mole on the Run: “Shelter?!”
Irena: "It's not that kind of large shelter. It's probably just a small refuge facility or something like that. And it's probably an accident. It's hard to say what's left inside. Let's take a look."
Construction site boy and brick: "It makes sense to occupy the supermarket in the early days of the apocalypse."
Teng Teng: "Does anyone know about textiles? My eyes are going to be dazzled. (Dizzy)"
Ye Shi: "The old guys in the forum only study relatively punishing things. It's really difficult for you to ask them to think about this. (Funny)"
…
Put the milk in the refrigerator.
Chu Guang, who returned to the shelter, first went to the B2 floor to take a shower, then returned to the residents' hall on the B1 floor, sat in front of the computer and started doing the work he planned to do.
Today the official website is as lively as ever.
The most popular posts are still those of Brother Fang, who came to Japan.
But this time it’s not because of the strategy, but because of a piece of equipment.
At a time when per capita savings do not exceed 100, being able to take out a bow with 200 silver coins cannot be described as a trench.
After all, in the early days, everyone used the money to buy equipment, bullets, and supplies. How could we save so much money?
Living up to the expectations of the forum buddies, Fang Chang shared his experience in using the mechanical compound bow, and also gave his bow a coquettish name "Breaking Dawn".
“This ‘Daybreak’ is good at everything, but it’s too powerful!”
"Especially for charged shooting, ordinary wooden arrows cannot withstand it at all. After the string is full, press the switch on the bow body to activate the electric drive connected to the gear to empower the bow blades, and it will not feel difficult to pull. However,
The moment I let go, I felt it weighed at least a hundred pounds! The full charge is estimated to be two hundred! One arrow shot over, and the gnawer's head exploded!"
wThere are really mosquitoes: "What the hell are you shooting cannonballs?"
Elf King Fugui: “I cried with envy!”
Ye Ao is so helpless to me: "Smile, what have you done with 200 pounds? My ancestors were from the prairie, and a bow of 500 pounds is basic. If it doesn't cost more than a thousand pounds, you would be embarrassed to say that you are a man."
"
Irena: "Yes, yes, after all, bragging doesn't pay taxes. (Funny)"
Xiao Xiao Xiao Bookworm: "This equipment is too unbalanced and is more powerful than a gun. Is it reasonable not to sharpen it?!"
When he saw someone clamoring to cut it, Fang Chang immediately panicked and explained.
“What’s so unreasonable about this? The setting is in the near future. Is 200 pounds excessive? Not excessive at all! Have you ever played Graphics Crisis? The compound bow in it also has electromagnetic acceleration!”
"And this thing costs a lot of arrows. There are only twenty in a bundle of quivers. The arrows fired after charging are almost impossible to recover. Unless I encounter a big guy who is difficult to deal with, I generally don't dare to use this trick.
!”
Mole on the run in the canyon: "I doubt you are in Versailles! (Turning over the table)"
Elf King Fugui: "That's it! Versailles!"
Fang Chang: “……”
In fact, in the long run, it is definitely worth spending 200 silver coins to buy this bow, because inflation will expand, but the equipment in "Wasteland oL" will not.
The equipment officially issued by Shelter 404 will always be of the first echelon, and the awesome weapons will always be awesome even if they are used on the server.
Of course, the premise is that the weapons are not broken and the equipment is not dropped.
The death penalty in this game is far more than just the loss of point contribution. As everyone’s equipment becomes more and more expensive, the loss of death drops also comes with the cost of equipment loss.
This is especially unfriendly to lone wolf players.
Levels and experience can be saved, but equipment cannot be saved.
If you are unfortunately found dead and don’t have any good friends to help pick up the equipment and VM, you can only find someone on the forum for help or post a reward.
In addition to Brother Fang in Versailles, there are many people on the forum discussing internal combustion engines and steam engines.
As for the cause, it was Miss Tengteng’s request for help.
These old men don’t know what textiles are, and they don’t care about the original poster’s problems. They just want to find a place to brag.
The topic quickly shifted from the Jenny machine to the most advanced non-woven fabrics and melt-blown technology.
It’s hard for them too, they just pretend to be cool while checking the information.
However, occasionally one or two real bosses may appear in the posts.
Under the current conditions of the former outpost, it may be a bit difficult to build an internal combustion engine. After all, the steel plant is still researching seamless steel pipes.
If you want to build an internal combustion engine casing that can withstand continuous high-temperature and high-pressure gas, you must at least unlock the cold rolling process first.
But then again, who uses an internal combustion machine to weave cloth?
It’s too much to think about.
A steam engine would be a good idea instead.
A boiler that continuously burns will release energy relatively mildly, and the requirements for material strength are not that great. The most important thing is that it is not picky about the fuel.
Whether it is used for power generation or industrial production, it is a good idea.
Teng Teng was watching the forum, taking notes frantically, speaking diligently, asking questions, and trying to straighten the crooked building.
It seems that she plans to build a steam-powered spinning machine imitating the ancient Jenny machine.
The players on the forum, whether they are professional combat players or professional players in life, are all so excellent.
Looking at these thriving little leeks, Chu Guang's heart was filled with the joy of his old father.
very nice.
…
It snowed all night last night.
The next morning, there was thick snow on the ground again.
At the east entrance of the outpost, three old men wearing animal skin clothes and looking about forty or fifty were wandering at the door. They seemed to want to come over, but they did not dare to get too close.
Feeling that something was wrong with them, Chu Guang called them over.
“What are you doing here?”
Afraid of offending the ruler, the old man lowered his head tremblingly and said.
“Sir, we don’t mean any harm, we just want to see if there is anything you need help with.”
“We’d like to find some work to do.”
“We are old and cannot catch up with prey, but we can still do some work of moving things, repairing houses, and mending.”
Looking for work.
Chu Guang’s heart moved slightly and he spoke.
"The snow on the outpost road needs to be cleared. Each person is charged 2 silver coins per day. If you want to do this work, go find Luca."
The warehouse and granary have been handed over to the newly trained warehouse managers, and old Luca is their foreman, responsible for communicating with other NPCs, including trading with survivors on Beit Street, including conveying the outpost's "intentions" to the refugees.
”.
The status is somewhat similar to that of a butler.
After hearing Chu Guang’s words, the eyes of the three old men suddenly lit up.
Two silver coins can be exchanged for two kilograms of potato chips.
Three people together, that’s six kilograms of potato chips!
Such a low salary is definitely something no player would be willing to do. After all, players’ “hourly salary” is at least 1 silver coin. If it’s lower, it’s not worth it.
But for the refugees, this salary is already very high.
“Thank you, sir!”
“Thank you for your generosity!”
“Don’t worry, leave it to us!”
There are brooms made of wooden branches in the warehouse, as well as dustpans and shovels for shoveling snow. Just shovel the snow into the cart, push it out of the outpost and dump it.
However, except for the handcarts, these refugees did not use the tools in the warehouse. Instead, they brought their own tools back to the village and started working in the camp with great enthusiasm.
Chu Guang told Xiao Qi to keep an eye on them, and then ignored the matter and strolled to the industrial area alone.
When he walked into the industrial area, Chu Guang found that two little players, w, there are really mosquitoes, and Ya'er, I want to go to the toilet, were standing at the door of the vine hut, measuring with a ruler and making gestures to communicate.
Out of curiosity, Chu Guang stepped forward and asked.
“What are you doing?”
Hearing the manager’s voice, the two people immediately stopped what they were doing and said excitedly.
“Dear manager, we are designing a steam boiler!”
“That’s right! This is a new job for our steel plant!”
“It’s also a new job for goblin technology!”
Steam engine.
It seems like they just discussed it on the forum a few hours ago, and I didn’t expect it to be used so soon.
The efficiency is quite high.
“What are you going to do? Burn firewood?”
Ya'er, I want to go to the toilet: "The firewood is not strong enough. Our initial plan is to make a wood vaporizer modeled on the generator you bought! While burning the boiler, the heat generated by the boiler can also be used to vaporize the wood.
!”
w There are really mosquitoes: "Actually, I planned to use biogas at first. Our septic tank is full of excrement, but it is a bit difficult to collect, and the heat in the dung pile does not seem to be enough in winter, so we can only wait until the next spring.
Let’s study further.”
Chu Guang: “Well, you guys should think about it.”
Human-powered spinning and weaving are too slow.
The outpost does not have that much manpower. The cocoons of the devil moths have already piled up into a hill outside the warehouse, and a second hill will soon be piled up as expected.
If the textile industry can be developed before the spring of next year, not only will the players' defense power be raised to a higher level, but the outpost can also earn a large amount of "foreign exchange" through the trade of devil's silk cloth, and use the earned foreign exchange to develop more advanced
industry.
It just so happens that female workers can be recruited in the refugee camp. When the time comes, the textile factory will be deployed at the east gate. From now on, that area will become a light industrial zone.
Passing by the steel plant, Chu Guang saw Ward's athlete's foot.
Instead of thinking about steam engines with his good friends, this guy pushed a red-hot "big iron can" on a wheelbarrow, trotted out of the factory, and rolled it into the snowdrift.
A "stab" sound was heard.
White mist emerged, the red-hot iron can cooled down instantly, and most of the pile of snow melted away, turning into steaming water.
“What is this?” Chu Guang asked curiously, looking at Brother Lai who was picking up the snow and pouring it on the big iron pot.
Brother Lai turned around and said with a smile.
“107mm mortar, sir!”
What?
Chu Guang stared at this thing for a while and couldn't help but ask.
“…You call this thing a cannon?”
“So, although it’s just a gun barrel,” Brother Lai chuckled and continued, “The stamping process still needs a little time. We have almost spent the budget, so we can only take on new work first to deal with emergencies.”
"It happened that Goblin Technology placed an order. Brother Mosquito said that bigness is justice, and justice is explosion. He wants us to help him get a thick and big barrel, even a cast barrel. He will figure out the rifling by himself.
Just file it and it won't come out. I thought it wasn't too difficult, so I got him one... Hehe, it's a big order of 200 silver coins."
Chu Guang didn’t know how to complain for a while.
but……
This thing should be more reliable than a rocket?
