Chapter 296 White Bear Knights!

 North of Shuguang City.

Long lasting farm trading post.

Standing next to an "e-mule" truck loaded with goods, Sisi touched his chin and thought for a long time, then suddenly tapped his right fist on the palm of his hand.

"How about we call it the Panda Merchant Group? We have both bears and cats."

Rourou, who was sitting on the floor, shook his head like a rattle.

"NONO, no matter how you say panda, it's still far behind."

What Sisi didn't expect was that not only Rourou, but Tails also raised their hands to raise objections.

"Object to plus one! Tails and Sisi's names didn't appear at all!"

Sisi: "Well, I think you can just add your name. I don't care..."

Tai Wei said seriously: "How can that work! We must think of a name that everyone can appear on!"

"Um..." Sesame Paste raised his hand and whispered, "Let me make it clear first, I'm just doing odd jobs... It doesn't matter if you don't need to consider me."

Although it is fun to play with everyone, she still prefers a more leisurely way of playing than setting up a mercenary union to become interstellar pirates and conquer the universe.

For example, riding a motorcycle to deliver goods to various survivor bases would be quite good.

Not only can you see different scenery in this vast world, but you can also get to know many people you would never meet in real life, and you can also make money.

It's just that transportation in this game is too expensive, so she has to save a little.

"Three votes versus one? I lost," Sisi sighed, "Can't we just think about it while walking on the road?"

"There's a sense of ceremony, there's a sense of ceremony. You, a woman, have no interest at all. You don't want to think of a name before you go on the road. How are we going to declare our home if we meet a predator?" Tails, who was holding his arms, said in an old-fashioned way, and suddenly his eyes lit up.

, "How about Tails Adventure Group?"

Rourou: "Wait a minute, what about me? And I said a second ago that everyone was going to appear on camera."

"Hey, I forgot."

Si Si coughed lightly.

"It's really troublesome... Let's call it the Flesh Knights. We take turns riding the Flesh Knights. We are all Flesh Knights. From now on, the Flesh Knights will be the leader, which solves this problem perfectly."

The big white bear raised his paw again dumbfounded: "Wait a minute, although, although I don't mind playing the role of a mount, this is too weird!"

"Yes, the tail feels weird too, as if the meat is meat [beep--]."

With a serious look on his face, he muffled the rather dangerous speech. Before Rourou could react, Taitail thought for a moment and then suddenly said with his eyes lit up.

"How about the Knights of the White Bear!"

Maybe because I have been struggling with this issue for too long, maybe because it sounds more handsome, this time even Rourou didn't object.

In this way, the White Bear Knights were officially established.

Si Si used the remaining money to buy a "Maxin-II" machine gun.

Unlike Maxim, who showed off his skills in the previous wave, the directors of the No. 81 Steel Plant learned from the air-cooling structure of the MG42, redesigned the replaceable barrel according to the needs of the combat environment in the wasteland, and increased the caliber.

At 10mm.

The 10×100mm machine gun bullet has X-4 fiber added to the charge, and its single-shot penetration is no weaker than the 12.7×108mm large-caliber machine gun bullet of the Deshka heavy machine gun.

It is more than enough to suppress those many-legged beasts that look like tentacle monsters along the way, as well as monsters that are huge in size, have thick blood and high attack power.

Workers sent by No. 81 Steel Plant not only helped them weld the roof of the car, but also helped them weld bullet-proof steel plates.

Every time he interacted with the director of Factory No. 81, Sisi couldn't help but sigh in his heart, the professional life players in this game are really getting more and more tortured.

"And the rocket launcher! Don't forget this!" Tails hissed as he carried a wooden box onto the car, which contained three RPG fragmentation grenades and armor-piercing rounds.

An electric-powered armed transport vehicle is completed!

The cat ears on the top of his head moved slightly, and Sesame Paste looked at the goods stuffed in the car with some worry.

"Speaking of electric trucks...is there any problem with battery life?"

There are no charging stations in the wasteland.

Based on real-life experience, the battery life of trams does not seem to be very long.

Sis patted her shoulder.

"Emmm... After all, it is a battery for a science fiction game. Although I don't know what a solid-state hydrogen battery is, it is still very easy to run back and forth twice. Don't worry about using it."

The actual distance from here to Honghe Town is within 100 kilometers. If you go further away, you will only need to prepare a backup battery or generator.

Not only are there no charging stations in the wasteland, there are also no gas stations. For small-scale transportation without tankers, oil trucks are not the best choice. After all, biomass fuel must undergo a series of processing and refining before it can be turned into gasoline, but it can

Wood for generating electricity is everywhere.

After the decline of civilization and the end of the severe cold, the first thing to occupy the city was the lush vegetation, and then the mutant slime mold.

"Be careful on the road." Shuanghe, who was standing in front of the stall, waved his hand gently, smiled and sent his blessings to these adventurers.

This is already the third wave of caravans formed by the residents of the shelter that she has sent away today.

Previously, the trading post here had always been populated by traders from Honghe Town, including large caravans like the Horseshoe Trading Company.

But recently, the number of residents in the shelter has begun to increase.

They usually choose to purchase LD-47 rifles and 7mm full-power ammunition with stable prices as trade goods, and Honghe Town, which is relatively "close" to Dawn City and has strong demand for weapons, is their first choice.

Shuanghe skillfully operated the VM with her index finger, signed and uploaded the purchase list. These data would be checked by the managers that day and used as her performance for the day.

At the same time, after verification, these data will be automatically synchronized to the central server of the shelter. On the processor with crazy computing power, the AI, which is close to complete artificial intelligence, will be verified with the data submitted by the inventory department and production unit.

Even if a bullet is missing, you can find out in which link it was lost and who is responsible for that link.

The highly AI-based management model has technically replaced a large number of middle-level managers who need management experience, making the entire management system flatter.

This system also has relatively low professional requirements for grassroots staff. They only need to master the fool-like operating procedures of VM and be familiar with specific job responsibilities to ensure the stable operation of the entire system.

At the same time, managers can also get the most realistic "first-hand data" and formulate specific macro strategies based on the most realistic situation.

The current literacy rate in the New Alliance is less than 30%, and this is after literacy classes and night school education have been implemented for half a year.

This is also the improvement method Chu Guang made by drawing on the "future municipal" technology of the People's Federation.

For the pre-prosperity era, completing this system would have required hundreds of programmers working overtime for a year or more.

But for Xiaoqi, who has nearly "complete artificial intelligence", he only needs a little time to communicate with managers.



The fourth day after the Beta0.2 version went online.

The number of players participating in the Xingshang system has reached 417, and the number of players joining the Corps system is nearly 657. The remaining players are either players who have formed a fixed style, or are casual players of the Buddhist type and newcomers who have not yet met the conditions.

A game cannot make everyone happy, but it can make those who can enjoy it even more excited.

Chu Guang was very pleased to see that the previously abnormal prices had finally returned to normal.

Now the indigenous people can also enjoy the delicacies of another world, and the professional life players who were spoiled by the combat professional players have finally stepped out of their comfort zone, upgraded equipment, expanded production, expanded production, and opened up the market.

Develop new markets.

The "version graduation outfit" hanging in the NPC shop - the light cavalry exoskeleton sold 40 sets in just three days, and 12 "electric mule" light trucks worth 50,000 yuan were sold.

This number is still increasing.

Chuguang has arranged personnel to expand the production of "e-mules" and expanded its investment in Bach Aluminum Factory and Lister Factory by increasing loans.

In the future, A3-type aerospace aluminum alloy and solid-state hydrogen batteries will be cheaper.

After solving the players' problems, Chu Guang can finally free up his hands to deal with matters related to the future of the new alliance...

B4 floor browsing room.

Staff members wearing VMs brought in boxes of neatly packaged books from outside, divided the books into science and social science categories as much as possible according to Chu Guang's requirements, and placed them on the empty bookshelves.

These books are from Vault 401.

After the reactor in Vault 117 shut down, the books stored inside were either taken away by torches, or burned as firewood by the residents who escaped or by nearby wasteland guest gates.

Fortunately, Chu Guang found many interesting books in the recently excavated Vault 401.

Predators are not interested in these things.

Thanks to the dealings of that old popsicle named Sun Zewen, these good "fuels" survived.

At least part of it was saved.

Thanks to this.

These fuels can finally be "burned" in the right form and in the right place.

Currently, the work of sorting out the books is handled by staff from the Hong Merchants Union.

This is currently the department with the highest literacy rate in the New Alliance.

At the same time, it was old Charlie who was in charge.

"Dear Administrator, there are a total of 2,490 books sent from Vault 401, including 217 social science books, 332 science books, 641 engineering application books, 110 popular science books, and biographies.

Fiction reading..."

"Among them, 31 are related to the subdivisions of agriculture, forestry and animal husbandry, and food processing related..."

Shuangxue was so nervous that she almost bit her tongue several times.

This was the first time she walked into the heart of the New Alliance - the B4 floor of Vault 404.

It was also the first time she saw a manager without power armor.

"Well done, you have done a great job."

Looking at the little girl in front of him, Chu Guang nodded in approval.

Being able to classify these books into broad categories is already very good, and he will not harshly blame his subordinates for doing things beyond their abilities.

However, they not only completed their tasks in just a few days, but also exceeded their expectations by further subdividing these books into fields.

To be honest, this was even a little beyond Chu Guang's expectations.

He originally planned to scan these books with Xiaoqi's help and then use his free time to read and sort them.

It seems that old Charlie has been worrying a lot these days, which saved him a lot of time.

Chu Guang will then select some books that have a relatively low threshold and are not difficult to read as textbooks for primary education.

I guess I'll have to trouble the elderly with this matter.

Old Charlie used to be the mayor and principal of Bate Street, and he knew the actual situation of these aboriginal people better than any expert.

Chu Guang planned to let him be the Minister of Education of the new alliance after the Hong Kong Merchants Union got on the right track.

Of course, the premise is that he is still willing to continue working.

After all, the old man's age is considered old in the wasteland.

"...That, that."

Seeing that the little girl in front of him still had something to say, Chu Guang spoke in a gentle tone.

"Anything else?"

"Mr. Charlie said... let me remind you to take a rest. You are the manager of the alliance, and your health is more precious than these books." Shuangxue whispered.

Chu Guang was stunned for a moment, then laughed.

"Haha, thank him for his concern for me. By the way, I would like to say a word to him and me. I am still young and I am not qualified for this kind of work."

joke.

This new job is much easier than his previous job in sales, right?

With Xiaoqi helping to organize reports and monitor abnormal data, he can not only grasp the most realistic data in every aspect of the new alliance from industry to economy like a P player, but he can also use cultural products from the parallel world in his spare time

Find inspiration.

Before, Chu Guang was so tired from running his business that he had to drink with his clients. Occasionally, people would do something to him because he was young and handsome.

Chu Guang will probably never drink alcohol again in this life.

Unless you meet a Tiehanhan like Luo Hua who is good at food and loves to drink, you can try to glean information from others.

As for normal times?

Drinking some sparkling water or mushroom soup is enough.

However, Shuangxue didn't know what Chu Guang was feeling in her heart. She just felt that the manager who dedicated his whole life for everyone was too gentle.

Under his management, everyone lived in warm brick houses and no longer had to face painful choices in order to survive, nor did they have to wander in the wilderness without a fixed abode.

And he never seemed to do anything for himself.

Not only do they still live in the caves of the pre-civilization, but even the abandoned sanatorium where the new alliance was announced has only undergone simple repairs.

I really hope he can treat himself a little better.

There was a trace of reverence in his longing eyes. The little girl was embarrassed to disturb his work anymore, lowered her head to show respect, and turned around to help her colleagues organize the books.

It took some time to put all the more than two thousand books on the bookshelves. Looking at the room that finally looked like a browsing room, Chu Guang nodded with satisfaction.

In his eyes, these treasures are more precious than black boxes.

Black boxes solve current problems, and they can solve future problems. Compared with the incomplete data collected by the scientific expedition team from the memory in the ruins, each book here can correspond to at least one specific field.

.

"The basic requirements for science and engineering are too high, and culture and art are not needed for the time being. I'll start with popular science books, and I've also decided on the teaching materials."

"Education is a century-old project, and the sooner you start, the better."

"Then there's social science... It's too wasteful to use 20 points of intelligence to bully the AI ​​of the stars. You have to recharge yourself occasionally."

“In the future, grassroots managers’ announcements will also require professional study and examinations.”

"As for the players..."

As for whether to open it to players, Chu Guang thought about it for a long time and finally decided to adopt a more cautious strategy.

First of all, "not exposing that this is the real world" is the bottom line of everything.

The first-generation managers had hinted at him many times, and Chu Guang himself had somewhat realized the risks behind this in practice.

Exposing one's needs in a relationship is a very dangerous thing. It is equivalent to sticking one's neck out for others to manipulate.

Whether they are cloud players or players, there are many experts in various industries and fields. What they lack is just the experience of "building wasteland". Chu Guang can slowly let people in as needed. There is no need to do it for 0%.

Point a few BUFFs to increase the difficulty for yourself.

The players have done the best they can, just like the natives who helped him organize his books.

As for research on high-end technology?

Who can be more suitable for scientific research than the old popsicles of the Prosperous Era and his sons and grandsons?

Recovering the legacy of the Prosperous Era does not require so many people. The residents of the shelter are completely sufficient. According to Yin Fang's description, the strategy adopted by the academy is similar.

Most players enter the game with an entertainment mentality and are not here to learn.

Just like Bang Feng said jokingly a long time ago, if this technology is used by bosses at work, he might as well just sleep.

Chu Guang will consider allowing players to access some technologies as the game progresses as a reward for the players, but all this will be under the premise of "not exposing the nature of the world."

This is actually not difficult to deal with.

Previously, Chu Guang got inspiration from the different strategies adopted by governments of various countries against him. Those people seemed to regard this game as the first contact between extraterrestrial civilization and earth civilization.

And it is a contact above neutral level.

With limited information, they could not explain how the helmet appeared at their doorstep, nor could they explain that the website and game servers were as powerful as gods.

Is it strange that technologies unknown to Earth appear in advanced civilization games?

Of course it's not surprising.

Chu Guang can even guide them to understand this game as a "goodwill enlightenment" from extraterrestrial civilization to earth civilization.

They will carefully speculate on their bottom line, reduce meaningless temptations, keep secrets about extraterrestrial civilizations, and treat the "players" who have gained enlightenment from advanced civilizations as treasures - even strategic resources in the palm of their hands.

They even set aside part of their budget to secretly increase the price of silver coins. Like themselves, they use macro-level means to gently or aggressively encourage players to apply for "labor visas", participate in advanced civilization games, and learn from their neighbors outside the solar system.

Knowledge and experience in dealing with the doomsday can be used to build the country and benefit society.

It's like he encourages players to work for the Pioneer at all costs, and strictly restrains players not to do inappropriate things to those they can't afford to offend.

In fact, if Chu Guang is a little evil enough, he can also use "This is your dream and this is your future" to fool them like a magician into following his own rules in reality.

But that is another unimagined path.

The art of management lies in guidance rather than command. Excessive force is not a good thing.

Looking at the rows of bookshelves in front of him, Chu Guang felt like he was seeing a stack of cards, and he couldn't help but smile.

"...Would you like to put some bait out first?"

Or keep the dividends until the next round of "closed beta"?

Just when Chu Guang was thinking about which technology or basic scientific knowledge was more suitable for fishing, footsteps came from outside the trap door.

Yin Fang walked into the browsing room with a tablet under his elbow.

From the expression on his face, Chu Guang had a premonition that something good was probably going to happen, so he said in a pleasant tone.

"I guess there's some progress with the fuel rods."

"You should guess wrong on purpose to give me a sense of accomplishment."

Yin Fang made a joke and handed the tablet in his hand to Chu Guang's hand.

"We found fuel rods of a type that can be used in the shelter from the underground warehouse of a thruster assembly plant. The remaining energy is 67%. It should be able to be used for a long time. Your regiment is on its way back, and they will be responsible for delivering the goods to

Vault 401, I will install it later... By the way, you have moved all the books from Vault 401?"

He noticed that the bookshelves in the browsing room were filled with books.

When he came here before, he didn't see any of it, and he even thought that the first generation manager here was an ignorant idiot.

"This is more convenient... Next time I will pretend that I guessed wrong. For example, how about asking you if you have a sweetheart first?" Chu Guang joked with a smile.

"Forget it, the remains of pre-civilizations are more interesting to me."

Although he entered the shelter with a semi-threatening attitude at first, in the subsequent interactions, Yin Fang gradually felt that the guy in front of him was actually an easy person to get along with.

To put it simply, there is no pretense.

Unlike the technocrats in the academy, those people knew a little bit about technology at first, but later they became bosses who pointed at people with the tip of their noses. People like him who really do things have little room for advancement.

This guy in front of me is different.

Although he knows nothing about basic knowledge, which makes people wonder whether he has received basic education in the shelter, his attitude of respect for knowledge still makes him very comfortable.

Yin Fang glanced at the browsing room, especially the coffee machine next to the wall, and said with envy.

“The environment here is also great.”

"Do you want to move your office here?"

"No need, I don't feel comfortable when there are people around me... Can I move a coffee machine? There are so many of them anyway." The last time he came here, Yin Fang was thinking about the coffee machine in the corner.

But I didn't feel embarrassed to speak.

Chu Guang said with a smile.

"The coffee trees have just been planted, so what's the point of carrying one around... Forget it, just take it if you want."

Yin Fang hugged his favorite one with a look of joy on his face.

“Thank you so much!”

Renlian era coffee machines are also rare black technologies in this era. In addition to being able to automatically dry, roast, remove acid, and grind, they can also simulate various processed flavors according to needs.

I heard that in the Prosperous Era, the large supermarkets of People's Union will supply freshly picked coffee fruits to meet the more personalized needs of customers.

Being able to own a high-tech coffee machine of his own is even more surprising to Yin Fang than digging up fuel rods for a fusion reactor.

This is a treatment that only B-level researchers can enjoy in the academy!

Seeing Yin Fang's obsessed expression, Chu Guang couldn't help but have a strange expression.

I heard that middle-aged people will place their feelings on some weird things, such as teapots, fishing rods, and even charging plugs.

But this guy is only in his early twenties, right?

"Is the coffee that good?"

"You don't understand, savoring the beauty of the old days is one of the few pleasures..." The hand stroking the coffee machine stopped, and a rare melancholy appeared on Yin Fang's face, "I have never experienced it all my life.

In pursuit of the relics of previous civilizations, I dug them out from the ruins and sorted them into categories. I even dreamed about that era in my dreams..."

"The frustrating thing is, however, the further I go down this road, the clearer it becomes to me... that going back is impossible."

Chu Guang was silent for a while and didn't say anything. He just patted the guy's shoulder lightly.

"Don't miss the past."

"We're still here."

"We are their continuation"



The jungle in the east district of Qingquan City.

A team of cows and horses, all members of which were equipped with exoskeletons, was escorting the fuel rods and advancing cautiously on the jungle-covered streets.

They had just experienced a battle before.

A group of raiders stationed near the mission target not only refused to surrender, but opened fire on them.

But it didn't take much effort to deal with those barbarians.

After handing over the rescued prisoners and remaining looters to the NPC soldiers who were changing defenses, they continued towards the direction of Vault 401 with the cargo box containing the fuel rods.

I have to say, the exoskeleton is really easy to use.

Carrying hundreds of kilograms of fuel rods, even if it is a power type, through the ruins "over mountains and ridges" will be tiring.

But hanging on the exoskeleton, apart from a slight increase in energy consumption, there is no feeling of weight-bearing at all.

Walking in the front C position of the team, I quit smoking and took a look at the graduation outfit I was wearing. After hesitating for a long time, I couldn't help but say what I had been holding back all the way.

"Brothers, I-"

"Okay, don't talk anymore. This mission will deduct 15% from your income. Let's split it up between the four of us." Lao Bai said helplessly after interrupting him.

He had long noticed what he was thinking about quitting smoking.

Sure enough, after hearing these words, I quit smoking and breathed a sigh of relief, and my expression slowly relaxed.

"Thanks."

Light cavalry worth ten thousand silver coins.

There are currently only 40 sets in the entire server, and there are 60 sets hanging in the NPC shop. Each account is limited to purchasing one set.

Of course he couldn't afford it with his little savings. After all, he only entered the game during the "Land Sailing" expansion pack.

Although everyone used to give each other equipment when playing games, this equipment was too expensive, costing 200,000 to 300,000 RMB.

He really couldn't bear it.

"Why are you thanking me?" Ye Shi rolled his eyes angrily, "We are still waiting for you to become the master of sex."

"There's no need to take it too seriously." Fang Chang patted Quit on the shoulder, "We just took advantage of the advanced games and gained a little advantage. You can't thank us as much as you thank Aguang."

Kuangfeng: "I agree, don't carry too much burden when playing games. Calculating how much your equipment is worth is meaningless."

He quit smoking and took a breath. He didn't say any more disgusting polite words, but silently remembered everyone's care for him in his heart.

"There are still two kilometers left to enter the safe area. After this mission, a new stronghold should be unlocked, which will serve as a novice village for rookies..." Lao Bai reached out and clicked on the VM to confirm the location, "Two options

, go straight ahead and take a shortcut, go through the abandoned theater and go directly to Ecological Park Station No. 3, or go back along the way we came."

Guangfeng touched the bridge of his nose.

"Generally speaking, taking shortcuts is standard flagging behavior."

Fang Chang: "Then just be more stable."

However, at this moment, Ye Shi suddenly grasped the sniper rifle in his hand.

"No need to choose."

The other four people immediately became alert.

Lao Bai immediately looked at him and asked seriously.

"what have you found?"

"Killing intent..." Ye Shi swallowed and carefully observed his surroundings, "It's very weak... but I can feel it."

The streets were quiet, and nothing unusual could be seen at all.

However, Ye Shi's intuition is rarely wrong.

The presence of murderous intent means that the other party has discovered them.

Lao Bai looked stern, gestured to spread out, and shouted in a low voice.

"Ready to fight!"

(Thanks to the Silver Alliance of "Laplace 12351131"!! The boss is awesome! I tried for a long time, but the number still can't be added to the title QAQ)
