It was just past 6 pm here in the wasteland, and the entire city and forest were already dark.
In order to prepare for sneak attacks, players set up torches outside the walls of the base, placed mixing lines in the woods, and hung early warning bells.
After a while, it will be dawn in reality, and many people have to go to work during the day. In the end, there were only 20 players left, and the remaining 30 people chose to go offline.
However, half of the 30 players who went offline said they were free in the afternoon and would come back after noon.
Just rotate with the players who were online "in the first half of the night".
Chu Guang, who temporarily carried Xiao Qi back to the shelter to recharge and sent away a group of players, sat on a chair in the residents' hall, opened the system panel, and confirmed his points.
Counting the 100 points rewarded for completing the generator side mission, his current reward points have reached 122 points, which is enough to buy one high-level blind box, two intermediate blind boxes, and two lollipops.
In addition, as Chu Guang expected, with the completion of the last side mission, he indeed triggered a new mission to open the B2 floor of the shelter.
[Mission: Destroy the Blood Hand Clan entrenched in the abandoned tire factory in the north of the refuge.
Type: branch line
Reward: B2 level permission of Shelter 404]
"...Resolve the threat from external forces before opening the next level of the shelter. Is this what you mean?"
That's quite reasonable.
I hope I can find some good stuff on the next floor, at least it won't be as bare as the B1 floor, which has nothing but 100 cultivation chambers and a computer.
"System, open manager allowance!"
The light blue holographic screen changed out of thin air, and three options appeared in front of Chu Guang.
Without any hesitation, Chu Guang selected one high-level blind box, two intermediate blind boxes, and threw the remaining two bonus points on the junior blind box.
With a slight tremor, the alloy door embedded in the wall opened.
When he saw the big guy on the conveyor belt, Chu Guang was stunned.
this……
Is it a weapon?
I saw a long-handled war hammer with a square head and a square head, standing steadily upside down on the conveyor belt.
The silver long handle forged from alloy is about the height of a person, and the head of the hammer is a bright silver metal arc, about the size of a human face.
The body of the hammer is inlaid with two circles of indented metal grooves, one in front of the other, and the steep carving texture connects the two circles, which looks quite sci-fi.
However, even if he used empathy and tried to understand the taste of the first generation of managers, Chu Guang was really unable to connect this thing with weapons.
Are we going to let him fight hand to hand with a hammer?
It's okay to switch to an ax or a javelin. With such a bulky guy charging, it's not a big deal if you don't get beaten into a sieve by the gun!
Stepping forward, Chu Guang held the handle of the hammer with a strange expression. He thought it would be heavy, but he didn't expect to lift it up as soon as he raised his hand.
"Huh?"
Although the weight is not light, it is not as bulky as expected, only about 20 to 30 kilograms.
Chu Guang tapped the surface of the hammer with his finger, but he didn't feel that it was hollow inside.
Is it made of aluminum alloy?
Or titanium alloy...or some special material he didn't understand.
At this time, Chu Guang suddenly noticed that there were three touch buttons on the hammer handle.
Out of curiosity, he stretched out his index finger and touched one of the buttons.
There was only a slight buzzing sound, and before Chu Guang could react what was going on, high-intensity airflow surged out from the four sides of the hammer body without warning and spurted backwards.
A huge thrust pushed the hammer forward.
Chu Guang, who was holding the hammer in both hands, almost lost his grip and almost hit the alloy door with the hammer. He was so frightened that he quickly released his index finger from the button.
"What the hell?!"
Is this hammer equipped with nitrogen acceleration?
Something!
Chu Guangzheng was thinking this with a surprised look on his face, when a translucent light blue holographic window popped out of his field of vision and floated next to the hammer.
It's like a label.
[Item: Nitrogen Power Hammer]
[Explanation: Functions such as defense, offense, and maneuverability can be achieved by interfering with the nitrogen flow rate on the armor surface through a special force field.
In A mode, a vortex nitrogen flow can be formed on the top of the power hammer, thus covering an umbrella-shaped defense surface with a maximum radius of 1m, deflecting it, reducing the kinetic energy of the projectile, and having good defense against light weapons.
In B mode, nitrogen can be compressed at the front of the power hammer to form 2~3mm thick nitrogen armor, which can be blasted and released after the nitrogen armor comes into contact with the target.
In C mode, high-pressure nitrogen flow can be sprayed behind the power hammer to provide directional acceleration.
This product is recommended to be used with assault-type powered armor. Mode B can have a good destructive effect on lightly armored targets, obstacles, and bunkers.】
[Note: Since there is no built-in gas storage device, it cannot be used in nitrogen-free environments such as vacuum and underwater.]
According to the instructions provided by the system, Chu Guang tried it briefly and finally figured out how to use this thing.
To put it simply, there is a device built into this hammer that can interfere with nearby nitrogen molecules.
A mode is equivalent to the defense mode, which can add a shield in front of the hammer.
B mode is equivalent to accumulating force. It can instantly release the nitrogen compressed on the armor surface while hammering the target, producing a concussive damage similar to an explosion shock wave?
C mode is roughly equivalent to inserting a propeller into the back of the hammer. It is easy to use whether it is running while holding it or swinging it to hit people.
In addition, the nitrogen-powered hammer is powered by a miniature cold fusion battery located at the front end of the hammer handle inserted into the hammer body.
According to the fluorescent mark on the end of the hammer handle, the battery is currently at full capacity. It seems that as long as it is not turned on all the time, it should theoretically be able to be used until the equipment is scrapped.
However, it actually cannot be left on all the time.
According to the instructions provided by the system, continued use will cause the circuit components in the equipment to overheat, and the warning light will flash for three seconds before triggering a protective power outage.
After holding the power hammer in his hand and playing with it for a while, Chu Guang couldn't help but sigh.
Technology beyond the scope of cognition is really no different from magic.
Not to mention how this thing controls nitrogen molecules, the tiny cold fusion battery at the end of the hanging handle alone has reached the realm of science fiction movies for him.
At least Chu Guang couldn't imagine the principle at all.
Take it apart and study it?
It's not that it can't be dismantled, but what's the point of doing so?
If its raw material is helium-3, you have to go to the moon to mine it. And if a certain material it uses uses an unknown process, then the speed of reverse engineering may not be as fast as starting from scratch.
After all, scientific research is not about working hard to create miracles, nor is it about removing blind boxes. If we can recruit some talents from other shelters in the future, there is hope of restoring some pre-war technology.
As for now?
Of course it just works.
In addition to the nitrogen-powered hammer, two intermediate blind boxes also produced a box of antibiotics and a treatment needle.
But what surprised Chu Guang the most was the two primary blind boxes. The items they opened turned out to be a bottle of soy sauce and a bag of salt.
Good guy.
He was mentally prepared to add two more lollipops, but his character exploded in a strange place?
Chu Guang didn't even know whether he was making a profit or a loss...
…
Six o'clock in the evening in wasteland time is exactly six o'clock in the morning in reality.
Although many people are still lying in bed at this time, for the players of Wasteland OL, it is just the opposite.
Not only did they not feel any fatigue after playing games all night, but they felt refreshed after sleeping for nearly 12 hours.
Especially the battle with the marauders, it was so exciting!
Almost as soon as it went offline, the official website became lively. Not only were the posts in the forum flooding the screen, but the chat in the irrigation area also started.
The man under the knife said: "Oh my god, it was so exciting to kill this afternoon! Hahaha, I have to go to the construction site in the morning. Brothers, wait for me to come back."
Quitting: “Afternoon?!”
The man under the knife said: "Hey, it's afternoon in the game! This game is so realistic that I forget the time. In reality, it should be exactly one o'clock in the morning! Hey, brother, you are guarding the official website so early.
?”
Quit smoking: "T.T"
Lao Bai: "I feel sorry for you, brother, who quit smoking. I can't help but want to lend you my account."
Quit smoking: “Is it okay!!!”
Ye Shi: "It can be a hammer. Others can't see anything when they wear it, and they still laugh at you for being stupid. I don't even explain it now. If you explain too much, you will think I'm crazy. Why bother? If you understand, you will understand naturally. You will be slapped in the face when the public test is released."
What can Ye Ao do to me? "You laughed so hard at me that you slapped me in the face! Let's slap a swollen face and pretend to be a pig's head!"
Ye Shi: "Just wait, I'll apply for a moderator right now."
Irena: "Brother Yeao is here too. Have you bought a house on the official website?"
Tomato Scrambled Eggs: "I know you are all in the forum! Let me also brag about it. The battlefield environment in this game is so damn real! Compared with those orphan games that play like light pollution, the real battlefield should be
That’s it, the bullets were flying around, I don’t know if they hit me or not, and I didn’t see anyone, anyway, it’s good to be done!”
Lao Bai: "Hahahaha, the battlefield atmosphere team is really awesome."
Ye Shi: "The case has been solved. After a long time, it turned out that you, the cook, was wasting bullets. I just said that the manager was so embarrassed in the end."
Scrambled Eggs with Tomatoes: "What happened to the cook? Don't tell me, I rushed over with my ax and knocked one down! Only when I was done did I realize that I had been shot in the leg. It really didn't hurt at all."
Fang Chang: "Scrambled eggs are from the physical system, right? How do you feel?"
Compared with others, Lai Ri Fang Chang's focus is always on game information.
Tomato scrambled eggs: "Recover very quickly! I don't feel much else. Hey, it would be great if I could use the perception system, but if I can't use the strength system, I can do it."
Fang Chang: "That's it...I understand."
Garbage Picking Level 99: "Be content, I got the gun only to find that I couldn't poke my finger in. QAQ"
Ye Shi: "Hahahahaha!"
Fang Chang: "Well, this is indeed a problem. How about you break off the outer frame in front of the trigger?"
Garbage Picking Level 99: "Wait until I buy a gun, hey, I have to pay back Brother Mosquito's money first.T.T"
WC is really full of mosquitoes: "Don't panic, good brother, why don't you try a crossbow? I'll make one for you when the store opens. It's so cheap!"
Garbage Picking Level 99: "I'd better use the javelin!"
Irena: ""
The forum is full of cheerful atmosphere.
After teasing Mr. Garbage, everyone opened another post and discussed various strategies to deal with the predators.
Some cloud players who were not qualified to play the game also participated, throwing out some bad ideas one after another. A certain screen-peeping planner was dumbfounded.
Forget about fire attacks.
Even the water attack came out.
Is there any reservoir nearby? Where can we collect so much water?
Of course, this is not unreliable. For example, there is a young player who is very smart and actually thinks of it together with him.
His ID is very domineering, his name is [Commander of Spring Water], and his reservation sequence is 661. Looking at the speech record, it appears that he was brought here from other forums by fellow forum members when he was bragging.
"...If you don't have the advantage in equipment, you won't be able to win the street battle. The best way is to drag it until it's frozen for thousands of miles or until the road is blocked by heavy snow. Then the battle will no longer be about equipment and tactics, but supplies.
, what we fight for is logistics, what we fight for is morale...if Wasteland OL has this setting."
"Hypothetical, I mean hypothetical. Listen to you, these plunderers don't engage in production, go to war, and make a living by looting. Then where do their food, clothing, and entertainment come from? If they just fight occasionally.
If the autumn wind blackmails the passing merchants, it will definitely be unstable, and it may not be enough. Spring, summer, and autumn are fine, but in winter, how can there be merchants passing by?"
"Then there are only three possibilities. Either they are thrifty and know how to tighten their belts, or they have stable and long-term meal tickets."
"The possibility of the former is very small. The other party is a bandit. If he really has such discipline and knows how to live a good life, he will be a happy and happy mountain king. Even if he doesn't farm, he will become a warlord!"
"If it's the latter, then it's easy. It's unrealistic to clear the country with a strong wall at home, so cut off their supply lines! Winter is still going on, and the supplies in the village will be exhausted sooner or later. Without the support of meal tickets, how can a group of ragtag people persist?
how long?"
"The other way is to brush the system. This is actually the case in many games. The AI has lost all its mines and is still rushing out troops without thinking."
"If this is the case, please pretend I didn't say it!"
