Chapter 54 New gameplay of No. 2 NPC online and stall setting!
The performance of the players really did not disappoint Chu Guang.
It only took two metallurgical men two days to create the tools needed by the "proprietress of the weapon shop".
It even improved the blast furnace and cleverly solved the bubbles in the local steelmaking castings.
The completed casting includes a boring tool, a turning tool, and a milling cutter.
Although they are all cast parts, their strength is still very reliable. If you pay attention to care and maintenance, it will last for several months without any problem.
In addition, there is a set of double-rail threaded calipers modified from screws, steel bars, and scrap gears. One side of the caliper is connected to a winch with a transmission shaft and a grip.
This thing can convert torque into horizontal thrust through gears. Every time the winch rotates 1 scale, it can just push the knife holder on the caliper horizontally by one millimeter.
Although the efficiency of this guy is not as good as that of an electric lathe, it can still be used for a while when processing controls with millimeter precision.
The only thing Chu Guang could not complain about was probably the IDs of the two brothers who completed these commissions.
One is called "Ward's athlete's foot, who is Levin", and the other is called "Yar, I need to go to the toilet".
What are these hellish names...
In short, according to the order at the warehouse door, the two of them received a total of 80 silver coins, which was divided into an average of 40 silver coins per person.
According to the two people's plan, they planned to brush up their contributions for a week and try to save up 2,000 points as soon as possible so that they could buy a piece of land in front of the nursing home.
The reward for making tools gave them a taste of the sweetness.
They plan to open a studio by then to specialize in metallurgy and forging.
"...Are these tools enough?" At the entrance of the weapons store, Chu Guang placed the wooden basket containing metal utensils on the table in front of Xia Yan.
Xia Yan glanced at the things in the frame and nodded reluctantly.
"It's okay. With these tools, at least making bullets won't be a problem. If you can make seamless steel pipes, I can also help you make some simple iron pipe rifles... Did you buy these?"
"Players do it."
"Made?" Xia Yan glanced at Chu Guang in surprise, "I didn't expect your people to have such skills."
Chu Guang said with a smile.
"How does it compare to Stonehenge?"
"Boulder City is huge, it depends on who you compare with."
Xia Yan continued speaking calmly while installing the threaded caliper on the wooden table.
"They are not all poor people like us. There are also regular troops armed to the teeth - the militia of Boulder City. They have power armor, twin-engine aircraft, neural access drones, half-track support vehicles, and me
It’s something I can’t even name.”
"Oh? So strong," Chu Guang said with a smile, "Then why haven't we seen them come here?"
"Who knows, maybe I'm not interested. There isn't much good stuff in the countryside."
Xia Yan answered vaguely.
In fact, she didn't finish her sentence. Although the militia in Boulder City did have some good things, it was obvious that not all of them were armed to the teeth.
For example, in terms of power armor, from what she learned, the entire militia group only had double figures, and more than half of them were inferior post-war imitations, and their power sources and weapons were relatively backward.
Only a small number of them are pre-war equipment that have not broken down yet, and the power source is one less He3 cold fusion battery.
As for drones, aircraft, support vehicles and the like, they sound scary, but in fact their deterrent significance is far greater than their actual combat significance.
Especially in negative-range street fighting, cannon fodder is always the most cost-effective option. In the slums of Boulder City, it only takes 13 years to grow from a baby to a soldier, and the "maintenance cost" is nothing more than a nutritional paste that cockroaches, spiders, and mice can make.
Although Chu Guang never believed half of what this guy said, these interesting settings can be added to the official website database.
Whether you are a cloud player or a player, everyone likes this kind of cake the most.
…
at dusk.
Players are returning to the outpost one after another.
Chu Guang noticed that there were actually several players setting up stalls in the open space in front of the north gate of the outpost.
And one of the most popular stalls is actually Crow Crow's.
"They sell mushrooms, fresh mushrooms, don't miss the duck when you pass by."
"After a day's work, why don't you make a pot of mushroom soup to reward yourself for your hard work?"
“It smells delicious!”
Since he couldn't accept quests from NPCs, he didn't want to go hungry and was too embarrassed to eat every day, so he had no choice but to set up a stall.
In addition to the mushrooms she took to complete the punishment mission, she kept about twenty kilograms for herself. With the mentality of giving it a try, she put it on the stall and started selling it.
Players passing by quickly gathered around.
"Can your mushrooms be eaten?"
"Is it done?"
"Male or female?"
“Can it be used on sensitive skin?”
"Can you see the villain after eating it?"
"You can eat it, you can see it - ah, no, no, you can't see it! If you don't believe it, look at it!" Crow Crow picked up the mushroom and stuffed it into his mouth, took a bite, and jumped on the spot to show that he was still alive.
No disconnection or dizziness.
Seeing that the stall owner had eaten all the food himself, the players gathered around the stall no longer hesitated and took out the copper coins in their hands.
Just like Crow Crow said, a pound of mushrooms is not expensive, only selling for 3 copper coins, which is much cheaper than the food sold in the granary.
The new version has been online for two days, and most players can afford it.
"Come on a pound. I won't eat meat today. I'll try making porridge with mushrooms."
"Grilled mushrooms sound good, too."
"Boss, I'll give you a pound. If it doesn't taste good, I'll come back and return it."
"It's a pity that I can't see the villain. Please give me something that can see the villain next time! I want Keli to call me husband."
"Hello? Yaoyaoling? There is a pervert here."
In less than five minutes, all the twenty kilograms of mushrooms piled on the stall were sold out.
Looking at the bright yellow and heavy sixty small copper pieces in his hand, Crow Crow burst into tears of excitement.
This, is this what it feels like to be wealthy!
It’s not easy!
Although……
After all, it’s actually only 6 silver coins.
On the other side, when the players who had bought the mushrooms were passing by the weapons store, they suddenly discovered that there were some tools they had never seen before on the wooden table in front of the proprietress of the weapon store.
As we all know, the dog planners of Wasteland OL are very detailed. Sharp-eyed players have already recognized that the things on the table are all knives for processing equipment.
That is to say...
In the future, you can buy materials and let NPCs help you change your equipment?!
"Are you Kelly from heaven?"
"Madam boss, where is the boss?"
"Stupid, she is the mercenary rescued by the previous manager! Where is the boss?"
"I know, but you look stupid if you are so serious."
Xia Yan looked at the players surrounding him in confusion.
Although she didn't understand what they were talking about, she still remembered what Chu Guang told her, looked at them with a cool expression, and read her lines word for word.
"Hello, I'm Xia Yan from the weapon shop. How can I help you?"
"This NPC doesn't look very intelligent."
"Normally, such a large server can be compatible with one or two spiritual NPCs, which is pretty good!"
"5mm unrifled iron tube rifle, [low quality]... That's stupid, the low quality one costs 100 silver coins! It's gone."
"Hey, I can't afford it. I can't afford it."
"Wow, wow, it is indeed Kelly from heaven. I can feel the aura of wealth from the price list."
Xia Yan: "..."
These people are so annoying. Why do they talk so much?
Should I buy it or not?
However, what made Xia Yan feel a little relieved was that these people were indeed as friendly as Chu Guang said.
Although it's not polite to stare at people, at least you won't do something irrational just because you ignore them.
Tavern in Boulder City.
99% of fights are caused by A looking at B too much.
…
After the players went offline, a post appeared on the official website of Wasteland OL, and the popularity quickly rose to the number one hot post of the day.
"Daily Mole: Shelter 404 welcomes NPC No. 2! The proprietress of the weapons store from Heaven (Kouhu)—Xia Yan!"
Mole on the run in the canyon: [Hello everyone, I am a red-nosed mole who escaped from the canyon. There is not enough land in the manor for farming, so I decided to hide in the wasteland for a while. ]
[Back to business, today I’m going to talk about the newly added NPC Xia Yan! 】
[This NPC was actually online yesterday, but yesterday was probably in the debugging stage. Although people were sitting at the table, there was a sign of going out of business on the door. Today, not only has the sign of going out of business been removed, but there are also guns hanging on the shelves.
The boss has an extra set of tools on his desk! Let’s make a bold guess, this will be your Kelly from now on. I don’t know when the 14-strengthened iron tube rifle will be released. (Funny)]
[In addition, my hand-drawn sketch is attached for reference only, please don’t repost it if you don’t like it.]
【picture】
Although Wasteland OL does not support in-game screenshots, it does not prevent players from using their drawing pads to copy in-game characters.
For example, Brother Mole, I didn't expect that he is actually a hidden master of hand-painting, and his paintings really look like that.
Lao Bai: "666!"
Ye Shi: "It can be said that they are exactly the same!"
Teng Teng: "I love it, my sister is so sassy, this is too A! (cute) (cute)"
Mole on the run in the canyon: "Hey, actually, I studied art, but then I changed my career after failing the Central American Examination. I would like to give some small suggestions to the official. They can add a punk-style Z-shaped studded belt and a belt to the new NPC.
Wear goggles, change your clothing to jeans and a white shirt, and it will look more cool with red hair! Of course, it’s just a suggestion.”
Quit smoking: "Boss, please draw the Shuguang BOSS too! I'm more interested in him! (Poor)"
That flash of longing: "That's right, who wants to see the NPC in the weapon shop? I want to see what the BOSS looks like! There's not even a browse picture on the official website!"
Mole on the run in the canyon: "Don't worry, I'll draw it now. What's interesting about the male NPC? Just wait a moment."
Irena: "Don't worry, I'll be online tomorrow night anyway. (Funny)"
Quit smoking: “&%@#!”
Today, the limelight of the official website was completely stolen by Xia Yan. Chu Guang glanced at the picture drawn by Brother Mole, and then glanced at Xia Yan, who was sitting in the corner memorizing his lines.
Quite similar.
But would adding a belt and goggles really make it look better?
As a straight man with pure blood, Chu Guang's dressing experience is about the same as X Bao X Dong's information flow push, and he is self-aware of this.
But he looks good no matter what he wears, so it doesn't matter.
Noticing Chu Guang's gaze, Xia Yan shrank back nervously.
"Do, what are you doing..."
"It's nothing, I'm just thinking about how many days it's been since you changed your clothes."
Chu Guang looked at her right leg. The injury there had basically healed, but there was still blood on her pants, which looked somewhat unhygienic.
Change, change clothes?
Xia Yan became even more nervous, her face turned pale, with the white part rosy and the red part tinged green.
"Relax, I just want to ask you about your ruler... Tsk," mid-sentence, Chu Guang shook his head, "Forget it."
It's really inappropriate to ask this yourself.
It's better to write a task note and let Teng Teng measure it.
