Chapter 100: Explore the enthusiastic players and the caravan that brave the wind and snow
"Okay, don't play in the water, come out."
Walking into the public bathroom in Area A on the second floor of the basement, Chu Guang knocked on the door one by one, like chasing ducks, and drove the players out of the endless washing.
"Wait, wait, duck, I've just been inside!"
"Get dressed and come out."
"Okay, don't open the door yet."
"Give you a minute."
“!!!”
When driving these little players out, Chu Guang suddenly felt like the charter wife in "Kung Fu".
But there is no way, if you don't rush, you can't do it.
It is impossible to count on these players to be self-conscious, and the queue at the entrance of the public bath has formed a long line.
Almost the entire Vault has been lined up, and there is almost no one working on the surface, which is outrageous.
Drove the players crowded in the public bathroom in Area A to the hall to assemble, Chu Guang glanced around the players majestically and said in a serious tone.
"The good news for everyone is that just half a day ago, our outstanding performance led the organization to invest more in us."
"From now on, the second basement area of the vault has been opened to our advance team, and your dormant pod will also be transferred to Area B here to live with the next batch of reinforcements."
"There are close to complete living facilities here, much better than the B1 floor, but I still hope that you will not indulge in the excellent living environment in front of you and take a long-term view."
"Rebuilding a utopia on earth is our ideal and vow."
"In order to conserve the shelter's precious energy and water resources, drinking fountains, showers and public restrooms are now available for a fee."
"The bathroom costs 1 copper coin for each use, and an additional 1 copper coin is paid for every 10 minutes after half an hour. The shower consumes 3 copper coins per use, and an additional 3 copper coins are charged for every 10 minutes after half an hour. The drinker costs 1 copper coin per 200ml of purified water, and there is no limit to hot or cold. ”
"Before using the facility, you need to deposit the fee in advance with the manager's assistant, and the permissions will be bound to the VM device. The camera will record the user's identity and usage time, and the same device is forbidden for two or more people to enter, and abnormal use will cause the device to lock and punish violators. In addition, if there is an arrears, you must make up the payment within 24 hours, otherwise it will affect the next use. ”
The permission to use the camera has been given to Xiaoqi.
It can accurately identify the time of use of each player's device, operate directly in the background, and deduct the pre-deposit fee according to the regulations.
AI management is much more efficient than manual management.
Arrears?
Then don't use it.
In his territory, hard-working players are unlikely to be short of money to spend.
After hearing the announcement of the manager, although the players had regretful expressions, they were not unacceptable.
As we all know, the premium VIP value-added services cost money, and it is indeed much more comfortable to take a bath in the shelter than to wash outside, so you don't have to worry about running out of water halfway through the bath.
At least, the generous manager didn't learn from the emperor penguin, engaged in some kind of membership service in the underworld, opened the door to charge a fee, turned on the faucet and charged again, and spent money to cut the line.
"Gan! I was just halfway through the wash when I was kicked out, and I felt like I was bleeding and woo-woo. ”
"You're a loser! Anyway, I still experienced it, I didn't line up! ”
"Take a shower for 3 copper coins? It's three times the price outside, so I'd better go to the lake and wash it. ”
"You're crazy, it's almost zero outside, you go to the lake to wash? I think you're going to make a nest in the lake. ”
"Wait, you guys can wash it in half an hour?! Saying this, it's very unreasonable, why do you have to pay 3 copper coins every 10 minutes after more than half an hour. ”
"You can also come out and go in again. But if no one is okay and there are a lot of people, I guess we will have to queue up again. ”
"I also think it's unreasonable, I washed it in 10 minutes, why should I pay 3 copper coins, can I only pay 1 copper coin?"
Looking at the noisy players, Chu Guang clapped his hands and blasted them to the elevator.
"Now, go upstairs and drag your pod down."
"Room 1~100 is currently released in the B area on the 2nd basement floor, starting with the player with the highest contribution point, everyone can have a room as your resurrection point."
"Go ahead, don't stand here stupidly, it's a random assignment late."
At the urging of the manager, the players finally dispersed and ran back upstairs to work humming, lifting the cultivation layer one by one.
Soon, the hall on the second basement floor was filled with training cabins.
Including the 10 players who had just entered the game, almost all the 81 players who did not have a mission were gathered here.
Each training pod has a specific number, which corresponds to the player's own U ID, but there is no fear of confusion.
Then it's time for the seats.
As a veteran player of the most advanced game, the 4 people of the Niuma team undoubtedly have the highest contribution rate, and successfully won the four rooms of 001~004.
Then there were mosquitoes and rattans, one took the 6th and the other took the 8th.
Then there are the scrambled egg brothers, who have become two versions of the chef, one version of the butcher, and the crow who has made a windfall from the leech's nest.
The two came up to take a look, good guys, the single-digit pretty numbers were all snatched up, so they decisively won 66 and 88.
The numbers are a little bit lower, but the numbers are awesome.
As for the rest, it doesn't matter!
In less than half an hour, almost all the rooms were divided, and those players who were on duty in the outpost and the abandoned tire factory were also assigned their own rooms through random assignment.
The players happily dragged their training pods to the corresponding room to make up their beds.
And those vacated beds, Chu Guang sent the players upstairs.
In the future, the B1 layer will be left to itself and the core NPCs that need to travel to the surface frequently.
As for the remaining 100 rooms in Area B on Level B2, in the future, you can consider taking in some technicians or special talents who have been collected from the wasteland.
It is best to freeze and hibernate, so that the "bloodline" will be more pure and the knowledge system will be relatively more perfect.
After settling the player, Chu Guang came to the surface and found Hain pacing back and forth in the open space of the sanatorium.
Seeing Chu Guang, the eyes of this businessman from Honghe Town suddenly lit up, and he immediately greeted him with a smile.
"My friend, you've finally adjusted your routine, and I can't help but want to go down to you."
Chu Guang smiled faintly.
"I'm afraid you won't be able to use this elevator."
"I know, so I didn't even try," Hain smiled and continued, "Just now, my most powerful assistant, Wen, received good news that the caravan from Honghe City has departed and is expected to arrive in three days, and we plan to complete the transaction at the tire factory!" ”
Chu Guang didn't ask Hain how he got the news.
Radio is not a very high-end technology, and in addition to radio, there are obviously many means of communication in this world that he has never heard of.
For example, the signal transmission between the player's helmet, clone, and culture pod is obviously not carried out through the medium of radio.
Otherwise, it would not be possible to do it without any delay.
"I hope you brought what I wanted." Chu Guang looked at him and said.
"Of course, that's what we agreed." Hain took off his hat and bowed, his face full of piety and respect, "Honesty and trustworthiness are my motto." ”
He had long had a deep understanding of his acting skills, but Chu Guang just smiled faintly and did not comment.
Believe your nonsense?
The grass on the grave is two feet high!
Bad luck, not even a grave.
……
With the fall of the Bloody Hand Clan, the largest group of marauders in the northern suburbs has come to an end.
The 404 flag was planted on the roof of the abandoned tire factory, and on the fence was a blue jacket with a pole rifle standing guard.
Until a new marauder force sets their sights on this piece of fat, the survivors of this area will be able to find a brief period of peace.
In in-game parlance, the "Raid Level" in the local area has dropped by three levels and the Prosperity level has increased by one level due to the heroic efforts of the players.
At the same time, Vault 404's regional reputation is increased by 100, neutral survivor factions are increased by 10, caravans are seen more frequently by 10%, and neutral NPCs are more likely to defect by 10%......
These are all the contents updated by Chuguang on the official website, just for players and cloud players to brag and be proud of.
In fact, he also found that not everyone in the forum believed that this game really existed, and many people simply felt that they were playing a "setting game".
But even so, so many people are so serious about "hi mouth", and it's quite interesting to watch, and I really want to think about the early mud games in the past, and more than ninety percent of the content relies on a group of people to make up their own brains.
However, as one of the most widely circulated urban legends in the current gaming circle, even if you need to fill in a lot of personal information to register an account, there are still many new players who are eager to sign up.
Their motivation is actually quite simple.
The qualification for closed beta means that the forum account has a player logo, and even if it is high-mouthed, it is more convincing than those cloud players who do not have a logo.
But when the helmet appears on their doorstep, their expressions must be very exciting.
Regardless of the things in the parallel world, with the introduction of "VM" equipment, players' enthusiasm for exploration has almost reached its peak.
Even though the snow was falling heavier and heavier outside, it still couldn't stop them from exploring the map. After all, watching the map shadows fade off the screen little by little is quite a decompressing thing in itself.
The key is that it is quite convenient to operate, just walk past it against the wall.
If it weren't for Chu Guang's demarcation of the restrictions on the exploration area, prohibiting them from going north into the wilderness, and forbidding them to go deep into the city, they wouldn't have dared to touch Boulder City with two legs and two hands.
Of course, the more likely is to die halfway through.
From here, there are few major roads to get to Boulder City, either by following the wreckage of the elevated loop or by finding a way through vast ruins and collapsed buildings.
And the cold winter will make all this more dangerous.
It's a trivial matter if people die, and the trouble is that you have to issue a corpse running mission to find a way to get their corpses and VM equipment back.
In particular, VM equipment is worth a lot more than the player's corpse, and if you buy it, you will get 40 credits!
In addition to the players, the only two aboriginal "NPCs" in the outpost, a weapon shop proprietress and a storekeeper, were also used by Chu Guang'an on the NPC-specific version of the VM.
With the help of the teleprompter, the work efficiency of the two has really improved a lot, at least when buying and selling things, you don't have to let the players say it again because they don't understand what the players say.
"It's getting heavier and heavier."
The fence of a scrap tire factory.
Looking at the frost-covered streets, streetlights, vehicles, and buildings, Chu Guang, who was heavily armed, suddenly sighed softly.
Such a heavy snow will definitely have an impact on the industrial production of the outpost.
Even if players are not afraid of the cold, do not feel pain, and can overcome the cold with the will of the workers, they will still be frostbitten, frostbite, and even shock.
They must not be allowed to make steel in the shelter.
Hai En, who was standing on the side, couldn't guess Chu Guang's thoughts, but just smiled and sent his compliment.
"This year is expected to be colder than last year, and the survivors around me are having a hard time. But you shouldn't worry, the Vault is full of spring all year round. ”
Chu Guang didn't answer his words, just kept looking at the north.
The cold north wind howled, rolling the snow like a knife.
Behind the mist of snow, figures suddenly appeared.
Hai En's reaction was faster than Chu Guang's, and surprise immediately appeared in his eyes, and his face was full of joy as he looked at Chu Guang who was standing aside.
"My lord! Our caravan is coming! ”
