[1. Active substances are the main raw materials for synthetic clones, including but not limited to minerals needed to form the human body, 20 common amino acids, 2 rare amino acids, etc.]
[2. The active substance extractor uses animal carcasses as raw materials, among which primates of the phylum Chordata, class Mammalia, are the best, with an extraction efficiency of up to 90%, followed by non-primates, and the phylum Invertebrates, with the lowest extraction efficiency, less than 10%. 】
【3.The extraction efficiency is also related to the degree of spoilage.】
As the task of recruiting players is completed, rewards and instructions will arrive in your account.
Inside Vault 404.
While Chu Guang read the instructions projected on his retina by the system, he also looked at the iron lump next to the conveyor belt that looked like a coffin.
According to the introduction in the manual, this thing is a device used to produce "raw materials for synthetic human cloning" - that is, "active substances".
To put it simply, the function is similar to corpse recycling?
However, judging from the description in this manual, it seems that the corpses of alien species are also within the scope of recovery.
After roughly understanding the usage of this thing, Chu Guang used the cart he picked up from outside to drag it to the elevator and followed the elevator back to the surface.
He didn't want to get the body into the shelter.
As for electricity.
There is always a way.
The elevator rose slowly, stopped and opened the door.
Just as he was dragging the trolley out of the elevator, Xiaoqi's voice came from upstairs almost at the same time.
"Owner!"
"What's wrong?"
"There seems to be something going on with your players...a big black bird is attacking them! On the north side of the sanatorium!"
Big black bird?
Chu Guang was stunned for a moment, then his expression changed, he immediately dropped the cart in his hand and hurried towards the outside of the nursing home.
…
"What the fuck? Brother Ye is so awesome."
"There was something about that forward roll and dodge just now!"
"Get out of here, I'm really scared! Stop standing there, come on, come and help me!"
The woods to the north of the sanatorium.
A black bird stood on a tree branch ten meters high, its sharp eyes fixed on the players on the ground.
The bird's legs are slightly bent, and the kite's large wings are folded back, ready to launch at any time.
After hearing the movement on Ye Shi's side, the other three players immediately put down their work and rushed towards this side with axes.
Perhaps because there were so many people on the ground, the black bird did not immediately launch a second dive, but stopped at a place out of reach of the crowd, waiting for an opportunity.
Guangfeng leaned down, picked up a black feather on the ground, and stared at it twice.
"Kind of like a crow."
"How big is a crow?!" Glancing at the scratches on the wood next to him, Ye Shi said with lingering fear as he backed away.
"This thing should be a mutant...a mutant produced by gamma rays or something else. I've seen the settings on the official website." Fang Chang stared at him cautiously, not daring to relax for a moment.
Ye Shi: "The official website has settings?! Isn't it just a reservation page?"
Kuangfeng: "That was a few days ago... The official website was updated with new features yesterday, didn't you even look at it?"
"Stop talking nonsense, what should we do now? Just do it like this?" Ye Shi took another step back nervously.
Now the closest thing to the bird is a strong wind.
Four people and one bird were in a stalemate.
At this moment, a "swish" sound broke through the air above the four people's heads, and hit the big bird straight towards it.
"Yah!"
Although the stone did not hit it, it frightened the big bird, and it flew up and jumped to another tree branch.
When it flapped its wings and finally stabilized its body on the branch, it saw the man on the ground picking up another stone and throwing it towards it.
The big bird was completely angry.
This is the first time it has seen a guy who dares to be so arrogant to itself in this territory that belongs to it.
The bent legs exerted force suddenly, and it jumped into the air from the tree branch like a fired cannonball, heading towards Chu Guang.
The sharp claws extend forward like an open hook.
However, a beast is still a beast. Even if it grows another head, it will not be able to understand the sarcasm that curls up the corner of its mouth.
Throwing away the stone in his hand, Chu Guang skillfully grabbed the steel pipe inserted into the ground and stabbed the sharp end out.
In the flash of lightning, there was no time to dodge.
Although the big bird fluttered its wings in surprise and tried to distance itself the moment it saw Chu Guang picking up the guy it had never seen before, it was basically impossible to do so in time due to the effect of inertia.
The water pipe was like a javelin, piercing its chest hard.
"Gah——!"
A shrill cry echoed in the forest.
Bloody feathers flew in all directions.
Watching the big bird struggling to fly away, Chu Guang silently stepped forward and picked up the bloody water pipe from the ground.
"This is not a crow."
"Its scientific name is Falcon...about two hundred years ago."
The four players stared at him dumbfounded, stunned by this smooth and fluid movement.
Damn it!
So strong!!
However, they don't know that for the absolute majority of survivors who can walk alone in the wasteland, this level of skill is nothing more than basic skills.
In these five months, Chu Guang has learned nothing else but mastered the skill of throwing a javelin. He can hit wherever he wants within ten meters.
Otherwise, he wouldn't have the chance to stand here and show off.
"Falcon?! Is it so big?" Kuang Feng said in surprise, which overturned his understanding of birds.
The abbot swallowed.
"Because of gamma rays?"
"It's not just gamma rays. Viruses, bacteria, genetic weapons... various factors have combined to cause everything we see today. Of course, alien species are just one of the threats we face. In some cases, people will be more powerful than them.
Danger."
Chu Guang raised his head and glanced at the pine tree in front of the four players, and then said.
"That falcon just now must have made a nest in this tree. No wonder it doesn't leave with so many of you."
Generally speaking, birds rarely take the initiative to provoke ground creatures that are larger than themselves. Their diet mainly consists of mutated cockroaches, mice, and squirrels.
Although the beast flew away, it could not fly far and was probably waiting to die in a nearby tree.
Although this type of water pipe with a sharp point does not have strong penetrating power, the hollow inside is a natural bloodletting channel. As long as a hole is pierced in the body, death is almost certain.
Let alone a bird, even if it were a human being, it would be difficult to sew up the wound.
Ye Shi lowered his head in shame.
"Sorry...I was too busy chopping wood that I didn't notice."
"Don't be sorry," Chu Guang raised his head and glanced, "Bird eggs are a good thing."
I'll be happy for a while.
…
Chu Guang's judgment was quickly verified.
Under a crooked tree, he found the dead black bird.
He bled it with a dagger and peeled off its feathers. Chu Guang threw it into an iron pot and placed it on a stove made of bricks. He stuffed dry branches and dead leaves under the stove and took the ones he bought earlier.
The match is lit.
Smoke rises.
Before the water boiled, Chu Guang took the blanched bird out of the pot, skewered it with steel bars, and grilled it directly on the fire.
Also roasted together were those bird eggs.
No salt and no spices.
But even so, it is much better than half-cooked green wheat.
"Is this thing... edible?"
Looking at the "mutant" on the iron frame, Ye Shi instinctively felt repelled, but despite the constant teasing scent, he still swallowed in dismay.
You can actually eat in the game!
This is definitely a surprise for foodies.
And this made him instantly feel that all the hard work this morning was worth it.
"You can eat it when it's cooked. I'll tell you what you can't eat." Chu Guang slowly turned the grill so that every side of the food was fully heated.
There are not many opportunities to eat wild game in the wasteland.
Even if you occasionally catch edible game like this, it will quickly spoil due to lack of preservation methods.
Here, salt is a more scarce commodity than electricity.
Especially for survivors living in inland cities like Qingquan City, it is unrealistic to use a large amount of salt to pickle food.
As for refrigerators, I heard that there was one in the mayor's castle, but Chu Guang had only heard about it and had never actually seen it.
Of course, the survivors are not completely helpless.
For example, Mr. Brown's farm, the survivor stronghold next door, produces tobacco leaves rich in aromatic compounds such as tar and aldehydes and ketones. Even if smoked without salt, it can extend the shelf life of food by several months.
"Master Manager, please tell me how much wood we need."
Waiting for the food to be cooked is a torture.
In order to divert attention from the food, Fang Chang took the initiative to start chatting.
Upon hearing this question, Chu Guang replied casually.
"Cut as many as you can."
The players looked at each other with little enthusiasm.
Chu Guang didn't pay much attention at first, but at this moment, he suddenly thought of something.
They are "players", that is, "outsiders".
Unlike themselves who have traveled here, they can leave here at any time, and there is no urgency to survive.
Even if you tell them the importance of storing wood, they won't really understand what it means.
The player's identity determines that their perspective on thinking about problems is different from their own. Even if they don't mind the pain, it will be difficult for them to continue to pay for things that have no reward.
There is a mission.
Naturally, there must be rewards.
"Let me think about it..."
Chu Guang, who touched his chin, fell into deep thought.
Suddenly, he thought of an idea.
"At four o'clock in the afternoon, we will tally up today's results."
"A tree as thick as an arm will contribute 1 point per meter. A tree as thick as a thigh will contribute 2 points per meter -"
However, what Chu Guang didn't expect was that as soon as he finished speaking, four salted fish holding bowls stood up with a loud sound.
"Master Manager, I suddenly feel not very hungry."
"Me too."
"Anyway, there's still a while before dinner starts, so I'm going to plant two more trees!"
"I suddenly want to chop something!"
Chu Guang: "...?"
He hasn't said yet what the contribution points can be used for...
