As night falls, the bars of Coppertown are at their busiest of the day.

The dimly lit houses were dimly lit, and the air was filled with the smell of alcohol mixed with tobacco. More than a dozen men and women are partying here. Bar waitress weaves through the hall with plates of spirits and potions, looking at every guest in the bar with a hazy look in their eyes, making it impossible to figure out what they are looking for.

There is a decadent vibe in the small bar, and as in this day and age, there is no hope in sight.

Suddenly, the door of the bar creaked open, and a dusty traveler in camouflage combat uniform and carrying a sack walked in. The new guest immediately attracted the attention of many people with ulterior motives in the bar, but after seeing the tactical vest with pistol magazines on the visitor's body, especially the Beretta M9 pistol and combat dagger pinned to the outside of the thigh, they all subconsciously looked away.

This is a mercenary, and compared to them ruffians, the mercenaries who fight mutated creatures in the wilderness all day are dangerous guys.

This mercenary's name is Ding Hao, and for this world, Ding Hao can be regarded as a traverser.

Ding Hao came to the bar counter of the bar and gently placed the heavy sack in his hand on the table. Judging by the crisp sound, the sack must have contained some fragile items.

"Ding Hao? Why are you only back now? I thought you'd have dinner in a mirelurk's nest. The bar owner put down the shiny glass in his hand and looked at the black-haired man in front of him and said in surprise.

"It used to be a playground, but when it becomes a mireurk crab's nest, visitors are no longer welcome to visit." Ding Hao took off the gas mask on his face, revealing a clean and handsome face, looking very young, only eighteen or nineteen years old. "All the mire crab eggs you want are here, and you need to pay me more, I almost died in the nest this time."

"Young people nowadays are really, how hurtful it is to talk about money." The bar owner rubbed his hands together, then opened the sack. The sack contained seven eggs the size of a human head, which were large, round, and clearly textured, and were obviously of the highest quality.

"Yo, such a big one, it's really yours." Seeing that the quality of the mireurk crab eggs was very high, the bar owner was also very happy, "This way, 350 pieces, 50 pieces for an egg." ”

"490 bucks." Ding Hao said expressionlessly. "70 pieces of an egg."

"No! Up to 420 pieces. Hearing Ding Hao say this, the bar owner suddenly became anxious, "Otherwise, you can find another place to sell it." ”

"Okay, since you don't want it, then I'll go and ask the proprietress of the cattle slaughter inn." Ding Hao took the sack and prepared to leave, "Maybe she will give me a fair price." ”

"Wait!" The bar owner grabbed Ding Hao's hand, and then gritted his teeth and said, "Count you ruthless!" 490 is 490! ”

"That's right." Ding Hao had a warm smile on his face.

The last thing Ding Hao got his hands on was 49 white crystals, a substance called crystal nuclei that can be found in most mutated creatures. A lowest-grade white crystal nucleus is worth ten dollars, and the next change is a pre-war coin. Above, there are green crystal nuclei, blue crystal nuclei, purple crystal nuclei, orange crystal nuclei and even the legendary red crystal nuclei. These crystal nuclei are a very strange substance, containing a large amount of energy, which can be used to make fuel, explosives, and even potions, and can be used in a wide range of applications. To this day, people still don't understand how these things came about, but that doesn't stop them from being used. It is precisely because of these characteristics that the crystal nucleus has become the mainstream currency of today's society, which is a real wealth.

Speaking of mutant creatures, then we have to introduce this world: Ding Hao traveled for unknown reasons when he was playing a doomsday survival game called "The Destruction of the World", and traveled to a Chinese teenager in this game world who was also named Ding Hao. The world is divided into two camps, the red camp led by the Red Dragon Republic and the blue camp led by the Blue Eagle United States. The content of the game is about the direct outbreak of a full-scale nuclear war between the two camps for some reason, the world is out of order in an instant, the society is in chaos, and mutated creatures are rampant under the influence of radiation. Players play as military agents, and the main mission is to guide the chaotic world back to order.

However, there is a problem, Ding Hao chose the red camp when he played this game, and the time in the game before the time travel was only 2081, only two years before the nuclear war in 2079, and all players are still struggling against endless mutant creatures and armed thugs. But Ding Hao's current location is in the west of the Blue Eagle United States of the world, and the time is 2161, both in time and place, it is far from the plot that Ding Hao is familiar with.

Hell, why do others travel to the front of the timeline when they travel into the game world, so that they can gain many advantages by virtue of their foresight, but when it is Ding Hao's turn, they suddenly go back 80 years?

To tell the truth, how to do this with these two black eyes?

At the same time, this crossed "Ding Hao" is still a complete unlucky egg, the settlement where he lives was attacked by robbers, "Ding Hao" was shocked to death by a grenade, and "Ding Hao"'s father is missing, the only thing left is a 1 yuan coin of the Red Dragon Republic 161 years ago, and it is missing a dime. When Ding Hao occupied the body of the deceased and crawled out of the grave with a confused face, he barely survived with the original game experience and the natural skills he gained after crossing over, and gradually adapted to the life of the wasteland.

But occupying this corpse is not without a price, Ding Hao has reached an agreement with the obsession with this corpse that has not yet dissipated: he must find the father of "Ding Hao" within 1 year and confirm his life and death, otherwise this body will die violently again.

A crystal nucleus quietly turned into powder in Ding Hao's hands, and a piece of data suddenly appeared in front of Ding Hao's eyes: gain experience points of 10 points, increase the level by 1 level, and obtain a skill point.

Although he crossed when playing the game, Ding Hao did not inherit the blood bar, attributes and other elements in the game, and the only thing he brought was the skill tree and upgrade system in the game, so Ding Hao will gain experience points whether he kills people or mutant beasts, but the values are very small, usually in single digits. Absorbing the crystal nucleus can also obtain experience points, but because the crystal nucleus is a currency, and repeated use will reduce the experience points obtained from a single crystal nucleus, Ding Hao will only use the crystal nucleus to advance when the level is about to increase.

Clicking on the skill panel, Ding Hao thought carefully about what to choose for the next skill. In "The Division", players can choose from two categories: Alien and Warrior, and there are four sub-categories of assault, defense, support, and reloading, with a total of hundreds of classes. Ding Hao's chosen profession is the Gun Ranger, which is an assault profession with firearms as the main weapon, the data in all aspects is relatively balanced, there are no more prominent strengths or shortcomings, and it is characterized by super endurance, which can collect materials to make and use various weapons and supplies, but because of this, the Gun Ranger has no status in the dungeon, but it is very popular in the wilderness, after all, a Gun Ranger is equivalent to a small supply station, which can greatly extend the field combat time of the squad. The talent of the Gun Ranger is divided into two major branches: hunting and survival, each of which has three small branches: basic, advanced, and master, with a total of 22 skills, and it takes level 22 to be full. Ding Hao has only reached level 3 now, and he can only choose in the basic branch.

There are two skills that have been learned so far, the first is the basic skill Piercing Shot, which is automatically learned: long-range attacks can penetrate obstacles up to 0.3 meters thick, ignoring 30% armor. This is a passive skill, and it is with this skill that Ding Hao used the M9 pistol to penetrate the heavy carapace of the mirelurk.

The other skill is Paralysis Shot: Shoots a bolt that paralyzes the target, slowing it by 60% for 6 seconds and having a 5 second cooldown. This basic skill is also considered a divine skill, you must know that the movement speed of many mutated creatures in the wilderness is simply fatal.

Then there are a few skills left to choose from, among which hunting are: counter shooting to interrupt spell casting, proficient melee killing, and setting traps. Survival classes include: Gunner, Chemist, Arms Dealer, Stealth, and Spirit Monkey.

Gun aficionados can craft weapon accessories using a variety of materials, and chemists can craft potions and explosives, both skills that require specific crafting tables. Arms dealers, on the other hand, can make arrows and modify special bullets. Stealth is stealth, and the monkey is parkour, which can move quickly and unhindered in complex terrain.

There are so many choices, so Ding Hao doesn't know what to do for a while.

"Are you okay?" Looking at Ding Hao, who was still lying on the counter, the bar owner asked angrily.

"Of course." Ding Hao played with the white crystal nucleus in his hand and let these little cuties spin in circles on the table, "I need a new gun." ”

This is a wasteland world, and only by mastering weapons can you control your own destiny, and a small M9 is really not enough.

"Pick what you want, I know you don't like those handmade iron tube guns, these are good goods from the old days." The bar owner took Ding Hao to the cellar of the bar and pointed to several weapons hanging on the wall.

There are several weapons on the wall, namely the M9 with 9mm pistol rounds, the Uzi, and the mp5. In this part of the United States, 9mm pistol cartridges can be said to be everywhere and are easy to replenish. However, these weapons are too fast and too powerful, and it is better to shoot them with a pistol.

There are semi-automatic M1014 and SPAR12, the power is good, and the bullets are not difficult to find, but the price is too expensive, M1014 costs 3000 yuan, SPAR12 costs 4000 yuan, and Ding Hao's money is less than 2500 yuan, which is not enough at all.

And there are three rifles, namely the famous AKM, the equally famous M4A1, and the still famous M14, and the kind with sniper scopes. Of course, the price is even more expensive, and the cheapest AKM costs more than 10,000 yuan, looking at the five-figure price, Ding Hao's head is numb for a while.

"Which one did you choose?" Looking at Ding Hao walking around in front of him, the bar owner asked. "These are new arrivals."

"Uh, there's no cheaper step. Gun? After all, Ding Hao asked a little embarrassed.

"The cheaper one is the iron tube gun, 200 yuan a piece, how much you need." The bar owner shrugged.

"Okay." Ding Hao shook his head, "Then forget it first, and buy it later." ”

"Wait!" Suddenly, the bar owner seemed to remember something, and slammed his fist on his palm, "I have something here, maybe you'll like it." ”

Rummaging through it, the bar owner took out a delicate box one meter long and half a meter wide with the four English letters of HOYT written on the surface from the storage room, and then placed it on the table and opened it, "That's it, I bought it from a traveling merchant half a year ago, but no one here uses this at all, if you want it, take it for 1800 yuan." ”

Lying inside the box was a delicate black composite bow, and Ding Hao's eyes couldn't help but widen when he saw this bow.

This is Hoyt's Super Blade! For Ding Hao, a master of archery, the appearance of Hoyt's super blade is all too familiar. The appearance is simple and beautiful, the lines are smooth, the shape is handsome, the maximum pulling force is 70 pounds, the arrow rate of fire is about 120 m/s, and the competition-grade accuracy. At the beginning, Ding Hao saved money for a year to buy this bow, but he didn't save enough until he crossed over. And now a brand new Super Blade is right in front of your eyes, and it's only 1800!

Seeing that Ding Hao didn't speak, the bar owner thought that he couldn't make up his mind, so he continued to introduce: "Although the compound bow is not as powerful as a rifle, it is better to shoot silently, and there is no need to worry about attracting mutated creatures around it, which is very suitable for use in dangerous environments, after all, the more dangerous the place, the more money you can make." And it also comes with accessories and 9 arrows, which is definitely a great value for money. ”

"Okay, just buy it, I can shoot arrows." Ding Hao nodded with a stiff face, not letting the bar owner see the excitement in his heart, otherwise this traitor would clean up every child in Ding Hao's pocket.

After paying 180 white crystal nuclei, the Hoyt Super Blade Compound Bow was renamed Ding. Before crossing, a set of super blades cost at least more than 3,000 knives, of course, it is also due to the reason that it is so expensive, as far as the bow box in Ding Hao's hand is concerned, it contains bows, arrows, and all the necessary accessories, and there is also a small soft backpack. The backpack is made of a very elastic fabric that has a large capacity and can hold the contents tightly on the back. There are hooks on the outside of the bag that can be used to hold compound bows, and there is also an elastic quiver on the side of the backpack that can hold 30 arrows, which is very convenient to use.

In addition, Ding Hao also bought two doses of Xiaoxingning, two adrenaline pens, a bottle of 500ml pure water, two tubes of nutrients, and 90 rounds of 9mm bullets.

Then Ding Hao became poor, and there was only 100 yuan left on him after buying these things, you must know that in this era of scarcity of materials, the prices were usually very expensive.

"Out of money?" The bar owner saw through Ding Hao's mind and couldn't help but ask.

"yes." Ding Hao was not hypocritical, and nodded very simply.

"I have a task here, the pay is very high, but it is very dangerous, I don't know if you want to do it." At this moment, the voice of the bar owner has a very special allure.
