"Generators? You ask what that thing is for. ”

In the present world, the canteen of Jinling University.

Looking at Professor Yan Feng, who was sitting across the table and asking a sincere question, Professor Wang Haiyang stopped the chopsticks in his hand.

He didn't know much about Professor Yan, except that he was in the Department of Physics, and he was about the same age as himself, about thirty years old.

I can't remember when I added WeChat, and I never chatted after adding it. I am from the Engineering Management Institute, and I have nothing to do with him in my work.

But today, he suddenly received an invitation from Professor Yan and made an appointment for lunch in the cafeteria, saying that he wanted to ask him for advice on something.

To be honest, when he saw the word "ask for advice", Professor Wang thought it was a matter of the topic, but after going to the appointment, he didn't expect him to ask such a strange question.

The topic continued in an atmosphere of small talk.

Iwakaze explained.

“…… I recently read a novel, it's a post-apocalyptic theme. I wonder what survivors can do to solve the power problem if something like this happens? ”

"What are you more true about the things in the novel, it depends on how the author writes," Professor Wang Haiyang said with a smile, "but your question is quite interesting, the end of the world...... It depends on what type of end times it is, and how many days after the end of the world. ”

He also likes to read novels, but he reads all the immortal texts, and he doesn't read much about the end of the world.

Anyway, he really didn't think that one day he would discuss the content of the novel with his colleagues in college in such a serious way.

"In terms of setting, it's two hundred years after the nuclear war."

"Two hundred years? Nuclear war? Professor Wang Haiyang was stunned for a moment and hesitated, "I'm afraid it's a bit troublesome." Unprotected electronic equipment can be damaged by the electromagnetic pulse generated by a nuclear explosion, and the more sophisticated the instrument, the less likely it is to survive. ”

"Is there a way?" Iwakaze frowned.

"Yes, for example, you can find a backup diesel generator in a typical residential property or restaurant, which is not a very sophisticated device, but it is two hundred years old...... I guess someone has already looted it. And even if it hasn't been looted, if it hasn't been maintained for a long time, eighty percent of the parts inside have to age. And fuel is also a problem, the last two hundred years...... You can't expect to find gasoline at the gas station. ”

Wang Haiyang touched his chin, thought for a moment and continued.

"But it's not completely impossible."

"What's the solution?" Iwakaze asked immediately.

"Generally speaking, every car has a recyclable generator that produces a stable 12V DC as long as the rotor spins it, and it should be ready to use if you fix it. For small-scale power generation, such as lighting, 12V is also sufficient. If you can find an inverter, it is not impossible to convert DC to 240V AC...... Is it necessary to take notes on this? ”

Looking at Yan Feng, who took out a small notebook and took notes seriously, Wang Haiyang looked confused.

Reading novels, as for being so serious?

Pushing down his glasses, Yan Feng said as if nothing had happened.

"Don't worry, please continue."

Wang Haiyang: "......"

I've always heard people say that the people in the academy are freaks, and he still thinks it's a stereotype.

Now, he's a little bit convinced.

……

Wasteland.

Vault 404.

Chu Guang slept on the floor in the resident hall, slept until four o'clock in the morning, and as soon as he opened his eyes, he saw a pop-up window popping up in the system.

[Congratulations to the host, unlock the achievement "Newbie Guide" (the player has been online for more than 8 hours on the first day of login)]

[Reward: +10 Bonus Points]

And this good thing?

When I woke up, I was able to smoke the blind box again.

Rubbing his sleepy eyes, Chu Guang opened the system and selected the [Manager Allowance] sub-page in the interface.

After a moment of hesitation between the primary blind box worth 1 reward point and the intermediate blind box worth 10 reward points, Chu Guang finally pressed all the "chips" on the button of the intermediate blind box, and at the same time prayed silently in his heart.

Please.

But don't smoke a cough syrup!

A pale blue glow flickered.

Under Chu Guang's nervous gaze, the alloy door on the side of the wall of the resident hall opened, and a plastic-encapsulated syringe appeared on the platform.

[Muscle cell strengthening injections. (Permanently improve muscle strength in a small amount, use interval of 24 hours, and the effect of multiple uses decreases)]

"Permanently improve muscle strength?"

This thing is a good thing!

Chu Guang did not hesitate, immediately tore open the outer packaging and took off the needle cap, but unexpectedly, he did not see the needle.

By the way, how do you use this thing?

After hesitating, Chu Guang put the head of the needle on his arm and pressed the button on the suspected switch at the tail. It was like something had stung on his arm, and then ......

There is no then.

"That's the end of it?"

Chu Guang was a little stunned, and waved his fist, but he didn't feel any obvious changes in his body.

Is it expired?

After all, it's two hundred years ago......

Out of caution, Chu Guang still gave himself a physical examination.

And when he got the test results, the confusion in his heart was finally answered.

【

ID: Chu Guang

Gene sequence: manager

Grade: LV.5

——Basic Attributes——

Strength: 9

Dexterity: 6

Constitution: 7

Perception: 7

Intelligence: 6

】

"The progress of gene development has not changed, and the strength and constitution have increased by 1 point each...... Shhh ”

Under normal circumstances, a 20-year-old adult male without special training usually has 5 points of strength and physique, and the number 5 is also the benchmark value for various attributes.

In other words, this 1 point of strength and physique is equivalent to 20% of the physical strength of a normal adult male.

Chu Guang is now only 1 point short of the strength attribute, and he can have twice the strength of a normal adult male.

Looking at the updated attribute panel, Chu Guang wondered if he should do a few push-ups to try, but at this moment, he suddenly found that the [Manager Log] had updated a new task.

When he opened it, Chu Guang was stunned.

Boy.

Before going to bed yesterday, there was only one unfinished branch left, and the number of unfinished tasks today directly became 20+!

The types of missions are also varied.

From tasks such as "hunting a different species", "hoarding 5 tons of wood", and "hoarding 100 liters of fresh water", to tasks such as "repairing the exterior wall of a sanatorium" and "repairing the wall on the second floor of a sanatorium", which can be difficult at first glance.

As for the rewards, they also range from a minimum of 1 point to a maximum of 20 points.

These tasks all have a unified label – "everyday".

"What does it mean to be everyday? Does it refresh every day? Chu Guang couldn't help but complain.

However, no one paid any attention to him.

The shelter system can't speak, and Xiao Qi is standing guard in the sanatorium outside, and the entire shelter is himself.

Chu Guang silently calculated in his heart that if he could complete all these 20 tasks, he would be able to gain a total of 150 reward points.

Of course, at least three-quarters of these bonus points are not so easy to get, at least not in a day or two.

Chu Guang fell into thought.

If you do all these tasks by yourself, you will definitely be exhausted. But if it's left to the player, it seems that you only need to pay a few "contribution points".

Thinking of this, his thoughts instantly became clear.

There is a marker in the drawer of the computer desk.

Holding the pen, Chu Guang took the elevator to the surface without saying a word, and after searching in the sanatorium, he found a plastic plate that had not been picked up and burned by the scavengers.

Dusting off the plastic board, Chu Guang took the marker, drew two lines on it, then wiped it off, and nodded with satisfaction.

"Not bad."

Erasable and writable.

That's you!

After spending a while, Chu Guang picked a few tasks from the [Manager's Log] that players hoped to complete and wrote them on the plastic board.

[Collect Wood (Requirements: Can be used as a building material): 1 contribution per meter.] 】

[Look for the water storage container (material: plastic, metal.] Shape: barrel, pot. Requirements: Bigger is better! ): 1~10 contributions. 】

[Search for recyclable waste: 1~? points contribute points. 】

【……】

"That's it!"

Glancing at the time, it was now half past four in the morning, and there was still an hour and a half before the agreed online time.

Chu Guang was not idle, returned to the shelter, turned on the computer, took a look at the backstage of the official website, and found that the number of appointments had increased by 10 compared to last night.

Now it's 35 people.

It seems that yesterday's discussion in the group still had a certain drainage effect, and ten fresh little leeks raised their hands.

However, Chu Guang pondered, it seems that the user potential of the "Cattle and Horse Club" should also be squeezed to the limit.

After all, this is just a game group of about 100 people, and the active users can count them on one hand, maybe these 35 people are all alive.

"It's time to think about a different way of promotion?"

Advertising is not realistic, the official website of Wasteland OL is not filed in China, and even the server is not on the earth.

And there is another problem here.

Once the traffic is diverted from a larger traffic pool, a large number of "low-quality users" will inevitably pour in, that is, people who do things.

These people may have clicked yes just out of fun, or they simply clicked on it accidentally.

Recruiting such players will only become a problem.

"The threshold for reservations must be raised to ......"

Chu Guang thought about it in his heart and silently wrote down this matter.

Wait for Xiaoqi to change the official website again, such as adjusting the reservation option from the first-level page to the second-level page, and you need to register an account, as well as fill in the phone number and delivery address to make an appointment.

While the Vault system doesn't seem to require players to fill in such a thing as a delivery address, it does at least screen out some of the less determined players and "invalid reservations".

In other words, what if someone opens more than one device to make an appointment?

Or is it simply a robot + virtual machine?

But after thinking about it, Chu Guang threw this question away.

Since the system can deliver the helmet to the user accurately, there must be a way to identify the identity of the person who made the reservation.

Worrying about so much by yourself is a bit unfounded.

"The new main quest hasn't been triggered yet, so the conditions should not be met."

"Leave aside the daily tasks for the time being, the key is the remaining 'branch line' - a 10KW power generator is needed."

Electricity is a big problem.

There is always a refuge in the future era, and the life of a primitive society is still living on the surface.

For Chu Guang from modern society, there is no electricity, and there is no difference from primitive society.

"Let's think about how to solve the generator problem!"
