Late at night.

Old Luca sent a message from his side and reported today's income to Chu Guang.

Among them, 2000cr is a fixed salary, because the logistics department of the Pioneer purchased value-added services with double production capacity, a total of 255 tons of garbage were collected, and the commission was 1275cr, which added up to 3275cr!

Then there is the business income of breakfast, dinner and supper, and this additional income actually reaches 700cr!

Coupled with the daily meal supplement of 600cr, deducting the 150cr spent on buying supplies and ingredients, today's balance has reached 4425cr.

As for the cost, the quest reward for every 100 kg of garbage is one silver coin, which is equivalent to 2550 silver.

Oh yes, there's also 2550 event points.

Evenly spread over 200 people, the per capita income is still a little low, and it should be pulled down by some intelligence players.

I hope that the young players will make persistent efforts and create more brilliance!

"Counting the 1200 of yesterday's half-day balance, the two-day income is a total of 5625! Good guys, that's enough to buy 18 assault rifles! ”

Before, when his arsenal was at its highest, he didn't have so many weapons.

Chu Guang can't wait to convert all the money he has saved into a gun now, and then hang a 400 silver coin in the weapon shop, and then start an event - "For all weapons exclusive to the expansion pack, 1 point of activity points can be deducted from 5 silver coins, and up to 50% of the total price can be deducted." ”

I believe that when the first wave of players returns, they will definitely jump with excitement!

I guess the next time they go back, they will definitely work harder!

Chu Guang felt that the game promotions of the major factories were understood by him, and it was really in vain that he took so many materials.

Leaning back on the computer chair, Chu Guang held the back of his head with both hands, looking at the ceiling and thinking.

"Tomorrow is the last day before the shift change, and the day after tomorrow, new players will go online, and the two groups of people will officially start the handover."

"50 old players with 150 new players...... I hope it doesn't make a mess. ”

Or......

Go for yourself.

There are Xiaoqi, Xia Yan, Xiaoyu, and so many old players on the base side.

It shouldn't be a big problem!

Just when Chu Guang turned off the text file and started a game of "Stars" to relax, on the Trailblazer, which was ten kilometers away, Li De of the logistics department was staring at the plate on the table in a daze.

"This ...... Is it a pie in a blue coat? ”

His secretary Wang Jie replied.

"It's a bun."

"What about this? Transparent skin? ”

"It's also a bun...... I heard that it is a soup dumpling, so it is better to eat it hot with vinegar. ”

"What about this flat one? Boiled buns? ”

"Well, I heard this is called dumplings."

“？？？”

Strange food.

In Ideal City, fat and protein are not wrapped in carbohydrates like this.

And there are no supermarkets that sell the food of the homeless people - those xenomorphic meats.

The lowest level of employees and the unemployed live on synthetic starch and a small amount of dietary fiber, and the middle level workers will have plant-based meat and some nutritious and balanced meals in their bowls, after all, the latter is the backbone of the enterprise and the irreplaceable majority of the machinery, and the company usually starts to think about their health.

At the top of the hierarchy, they were able to eat pre-war crops from CNC plantation towers and meat synthesized through rigorous scientific protocols. Although this type of food is also an industrial product, in addition to the nutrition itself, it will also pay more attention to the eating experience.

For senior employees and middle management personnel, the quality of the diet is quite high, not only have the opportunity to taste the evenly distributed fat of farmed meat and live poultry hatched eggs, but also taste pure natural milk.

With cooking equipment that is more sophisticated than CNC machines, they can even control the texture and taste of ingredients at the molecular level. With the help of technology, gastronomy can be an art.

Looking at the bun in front of him, Li De couldn't help but fall into deep thought.

This thing is probably not art, but more like a cultural product.

Anyway, it's xenomorph meat inside......

Can you really eat it?

In the spirit of positivism, in which so many people have eaten and have not seen what happened to people, Li De finally let go of the prejudices in his heart, picked it up and took a bite.

And then......

2nd and 3rd ......

Li De: "??? ”

it!?

This smell is a bit of a topper!

……

Following.

At the west gate of the outpost, the guards crouching in the trenches wore uniform fur coats and carried a rifle with a unique shape on their shoulders.

The square shape, the pitch-black casing, the heavy receiver construction, and the pure wooden butt give it a warhammer-like look.

Even if someone turns it up as a blunt weapon, there will be no sense of disobedience.

The aesthetics of large, rugged violence are vividly embodied in its body. And its name is quite restrained or orderly.

【Arbiter Type I】

Outpost Guard Standard Weapons!

"Fire!"

Bang——!

Fifteen gunshots rang out in unison, and the bullets flew murderously towards the target 100 meters away, splitting the trunk of a tree near the target.

The guard captain's wrench had a slightly embarrassed expression.

Ten of the fifteen targets missed, and the most embarrassing thing was that he didn't hit himself, and the bullet whizzed into the woods, and he couldn't find a shadow.

The most important thing is that the manager is standing at the door and watching.

"Reload!" The wrench tore out his throat and shouted.

The guards quickly pulled the bolt, threw the hot shells into the snow, and re-aimed at the target, waiting for the order to start a new round of target shooting.

"Pretty powerful?"

Looking at the rows of tree trunks shot through a hundred meters away with a wooden telescope, Chu Guang's face couldn't help but have a hint of surprise written on his face.

This feels a lot more powerful than the 7mm iron tube rifle that Liszt sold him.

Is it really an imitation?

"Didn't you tell me bigger is better? Anyway, the receiver is so thick, I thought it would be a pity not to use it, so I simply increased the length of the cartridge case and the amount of charge, and now it uses a 7x70mm rifle cartridge, which is 20mm longer than the original," Standing next to him with a cane, Xia Yan glanced at him teasingly, "This is big enough, right?" ”

"Big enough is big enough," Chu Guang said with emotion, "It's just that this hit rate is a bit touching." ”

But it doesn't really matter.

These guards weren't on the front line in the first place, and there was no need to hand over targets 100m away to them to fight, so the players would be done.

Shoot a warning shot into the sky, just loud enough!

If it weren't for the fear of clogging the receiver, he would even want to replace the smokeless gunpowder with a cheaper black powder, which is not only loud enough but also smoke, looking at the thief.

Anyway, there are a lot of life professional players recruited recently, and everyone's life is a bit Buddhist, and the next version Chu Guang plans to recruit more B club players to come in and pick up garbage.

Recruit some P players to come in and fight.

"I guess it's a problem with the warhead material and barrel, it's okay within 50m, but the ballistic spread is a bit big at 100m away. I'll think about how to solve this problem again......" Seeing Chu Guang looking at him strangely, Xia Yan was slightly stunned, "Is there anything on my face?" ”

"No, it's pretty clean," looking at Xia Yan, who was confused, Chu Guang nodded with a smile, "I just think you've been a lot more diligent lately, and you will take the initiative to think about it for me." As your boss, I'm grateful. ”

"What to think about for you, don't be sentimental!" With a flushed face, Xia Yan glared at him fiercely, and walked away with crutches.

Chu Guang smiled, didn't pay attention to her, brewed his expression for a while, and walked straight out of the west gate to find the wrench squatting in the trench.

Crawling out of the trench, the wrench looked at the manager with a guilty face, his head bowed, and his face reddened to explain.

"My ......, my lord"

"Lift your head up! Puff up your chest, you are the guards of the outpost, the defenders of order and justice. ”

Scolded, looking at the captain of the guard who was standing up and raising his head again, Chu Guang nodded approvingly.

After a moment's pause, he continued.

"As soon as the gun was issued to you, it is normal to miss the first shot, and you will naturally find the feeling after a few more practices. I have seen your training, so I don't have to blame myself, but I also remember not to let up! ”

The wrench hurriedly said.

"The subordinates don't dare!"

Chu Guang nodded, patted the snow off his shoulder, looked at his determined eyes and continued.

"Tomorrow, I'll take you on a long trip, and this will be your first mission. You are the captain of the guard, remember to watch more and learn more. ”

"Also, in a moment, you go to the warehouse, ask the warehouse manager to get 14 VMs, and send them to your other brothers. You should know how to use it, so I don't need to explain more. ”

Including the wrench that is now worn on the arm, a total of 15 VMs are special for the guards that Chu Guang asked Xiao Qi to help edit, which can directly identify the player's ID with the help of the map and report the violation directly to Chu Guang.

If the violation is confirmed, Chu Guang will be punished based on the facts.

Although the players in the closed beta server are relatively friendly at present, all kinds of problems will always pop up in the future.

Guns can only deter newcomers and vassals of low-level outcasts, and higher-level players still have to rely on authority to deter.

The wrench said imposingly.

"Yes!"

……

The fourth day of alpha 0.7 release.

Early in the morning, Wrench led the 15 guards of the outpost in a neat line at the north gate.

The drills for several days on end were somewhat effective.

Not to mention how strong the combat effectiveness can be, at least the standing posture and formation look like that, and it is no longer crooked and lazy.

The daily diet consisted of fish and meat, croissants and green wheat, and the complexion on their faces was much better than when they first came out of the marauders' dungeons.

Lu Yang, who came from the Pioneer to escort the workers to the operation camp for a shift change, glanced at the guards with rifles on their backs and standing in a neat line.

The men were poorly equipped, carrying bulky rifles and packed luggage on their backs, and wearing overcoats made of mutant reindeer fur, which can only be said to be barely uniform.

The only piece of equipment they had on their bodies that could be called high-tech was probably the vital signs monitor that was worn on their arms, the VMs commonly found in shelters.

Surprisingly, however, they are disciplined.

However, Lujan always felt that they were less like people in the Vault, more like outcasts in the wasteland. Most of the blue coats in the shelter look delicate and clean, and their appearance is more similar to that of the employees above the middle level of the company, and they don't look like they can endure hardship.

However, these people are different, and they have suffered a lot at the first sight of their faces.

While Lu Yang was thinking about his thoughts, the two Marines behind him were deserting in the communication channel.

"What did you eat in the morning?"

"I went to the blue coat and bought two buns."

"Holy? What time did you come down? ”

"Five o'clock."

"Awesome!"

Lu Yang coughed and scolded in the communication channel.

"Quiet."

The two Marines immediately shut their mouths and shut the microphone.

At this time, the wrench and Lu Yang met their eyes, and walked over with their rifles on their backs, and made a clean military salute.

"Your Excellency has asked me to wait for you here, he'll come up at eight o'clock, and before that he needs a little time to mobilize his residents."

Lu Yang looked at him and nodded, and said.

"I see, no hurry."

The departure time he agreed with Chu Guang was eight o'clock in the morning.

However, the situation on the road was relatively smooth today, and he and his men arrived at their destination half an hour earlier than expected.

"Allow me to take you to the reception room for a while."

Lu Yang shook his head and politely declined.

"No need, I'll just wait here."

Wearing power armor, where to wait is actually the same.

Anyway, no matter how hard the snow blows outside, it can't scrape on him, and he won't feel the slightest cold.

The wrench nodded, no longer insisting, and turned back into the line, standing with the brethren of the guard.

And at this moment, the second basement floor of the shelter is just lively.

The orientation meeting of one version is being carried out to the highest chao.

The little players in blue coats, staring at the big eyes of the copper bell, came out of their rooms and came to the square in front of the elevator on the B2 floor according to the guidance of the broadcast.

The bewildered emotions resonated in the crowd, and almost everyone couldn't believe their eyes, everything in front of them was real.

But the facts are in front of their eyes!

It's an almost completely real world!

And they all stood here in the form of living people, breathing the air here, listening to the sound of the person in their ears, feeling the blood stirring in their chests.

Dog planning is not deceiving!

"Wasteland OL" -

It's a blast!

"!"

"Is this Vault 404?!"

"Gan! This wall is so hard! I can't wear the model at all, and this sticker is too real! ”

"Hahahahaha, it's awesome, I didn't expect to really play a fully immersive virtual reality game in my lifetime! Brothers wait, I'll go to a handstand when I get offline! ”

"Brother, remember to start the live broadcast!"

"Need help? I'll send you a bottle of fish oil! ”

"Damn, are you really here?"

It's pretty much the same as the previous waves of newcomers entering the game.

Standing in the square in front of the elevator on the B2 floor, the newcomers danced excitedly, touched left and right, and slammed against the wall, jumping in place, as if they were holding some kind of grand ceremony.

Dozens of veteran players who didn't grab tickets for the expansion pack stood on the sidelines and judged, nostalgic for their lost youth and past.

Chu Guang was also observing these players, ready to deal with emergencies at any time.

However, what made him more satisfied was that there didn't seem to be a pants party among the players who came in this time.

It seems that this batch of budding newcomers are more reserved.

Of course, it may also be that after the old players of the forum, these newcomers still have a good understanding of the basic setting of this game, and they have reached the level of cloud players before entering the game.

For example, each person in the wasteland OL can only create one account, this account will accompany them from the closed beta to the open beta, and cannot be cancelled, and the operator will withdraw the account after retiring from the game, and reserves the right to reissue the account to others.

At this time, Chu Guang happened to see that a small player in the crowd suddenly screamed "Karma" and fell to the ground on his back.

Slightly stunned, Chu Guang said in a low voice.

"Xiaoqi."

Xiao Qi, who was following Chu Guang, raised the camera.

"What's wrong? Master. ”

Looking at the system interface that only he could see, Chu Guang said thoughtfully.

"Will being too excited cause the connection to drop?"

Xiaoqi: "Well, generally speaking, no, but it's not that absolute. For example, if the clone is physiologically shocked due to being too excited, the connection between the consciousness body will naturally be interrupted...... But this probability is so small that anyone will really be so excited that they will go into shock? ”

Chu Guang: "......"

Physiologically shock is okay.

Chu Guang glanced at the list of players, wanting to see which unlucky guy it was, but as soon as he saw the name, he was slightly stunned.

Quit smoking?

All right.

This guy's words are excusable, 80 points are also decent, stuck on the edge of the second gear score, and he was stunned to draw so many versions before he came in.

But then again, what if you take off your helmet and continue to get excited?

Will it be even in real life......

Chu Guang was suddenly a little worried about him.

Not far away.

Holding the tail of his arms, he shook his head in disappointment, and said in an old-fashioned manner: "Tsk, this newcomer can't do it, it's all human!" ”

Si Si glanced at her: "Humans can't satisfy you anymore." ”

Tail complained, "I mean, isn't there a creature that's a little more fantastical?" For example, Skeleton Man, Slime, or Touch. Hand monsters and stuff! By the way, if I could customize the character, I would like to touch . Hand! ”

Sisi sighed.

"It's worthy of Ah Wei."

I always feel that I have seen a side that I don't usually see.

……

At the same time, on the surface.

Fujito was busily rummaging in the hut.

Raven walked through the door, glanced left and right, and finally found a rattan with his head buried in a box and rummaging for something next to a wooden machine.

"Fujito! It's about to go...... Hey? What is this cloth? ”

Looking at the soft, lightweight piece of fabric on the table, Raven took it in his hand with a curious expression.

Fujito turned his head, his face turned red, and he rushed up and snatched it.

"You are changing, changing...... Too? ”

Raven: "? ”

"Anyway, I'm not done yet! When I'm done, ah, by the way, the manager, let me bring some clothes...... Hurry up and get some for me. ”

Looking at the vine vine who turned around and went back to rummage through the cabinets, Crow tilted his head in confusion, but still went up to help.

During the small talk, Raven learns that these clothes are made of devil's silk.

These days, Fuji Fuji has been studying how to weave devil silk into cloth, and some time ago, the process of reeling and weaving cloth has finally achieved certain results.

Although the foot-operated loom is a little backward, the woven cloth is usable, and the cloth made of devil's silk is not very warm, but it is strong enough.

Ordinary steel scissors can't be cut, and you can't cut them with the mouthparts of the devil moth.

Fujito made a dozen T-shirts out of these silk fabrics, but it looked like they could only be worn as underwear.

"Why do you want to bring this?"

"I heard that you can redeem rewards!"

"Huh? Are you sure? ”

Crow's mind moved.

She just picked a few beautiful mushrooms yesterday, and they were the ones that weren't poisonous.

"Wait a minute! I'll go back and get something! ”

"Ah, is it too late for you to go back and get something now?"

"Wait for me! Soon! ”

After such a toss back and forth, when the two of them rushed to the north gate in a hurry, the team was already about to set off.

"Administrator! I've been making clothes in the past few days...... Have you seen enough? Panting from running, Fujito picked up the clothes in his hand and asked embarrassedly.

Chu Guang didn't have any pickiness about the quality of the clothes, after all, he didn't know what kind of products the crew of the Pioneer liked.

In such a short period of time, it is good to be able to prepare this.

It's an attempt.

Chu Guang nodded approvingly and said.

"Yes, thank you for your hard work."

Fujito smiled shyly.

Just now, her VM received a reminder that the task was completed and rewarded her with 100 event points.

At the same time, the next task is also triggered-

[Mission: Sell clothes woven from devil's silk to the crew of the Pioneer.] 】

[Reward: For every 1CR obtained, you can exchange for 1 silver coin and 1 event point.] 】

Looking at the taskbar, Fujito's eyes sparkled.

Unexpectedly, I was able to earn event points before going to the new map, and I also unlocked new map-related missions.

This wave is simply a big profit!

……

Due to the accidental death of Brother Maca, only 199 players went to the shift change this time.

But it doesn't matter, when the time comes, Chu Guang will think of a random reason and choose a player who has picked up the most garbage in the past three days to stay and do another round.

After all players have done a round, he will count the amount of collection of all players in three days, and adjust the rules of the expansion, changing the task distribution method of rain and dew to centralized registration and merit-based admission.

In this way, not only will the efficiency of picking up trash be improved, but players who are not so interested in picking up trash will be able to choose to take up other jobs that they are more interested in.

For example, kneading dough and making dumplings, or setting up a stall to sell barbecue.

As long as you can help Vault 404 earn "foreign exchange", you can get event points.

This wave of Chuguang is called light industry wool!

As long as you can buy that industrial machine back, it is worth the amount of sweat.

By the way, before Crow came to him with a banknote to exchange money, Chu Guang not only gave her silver coins, but also replenished the corresponding activity points to her later.

Looking at the players who were sparsely combined, Chu Guang raised his voice and shouted in a loud voice.

"Assemble everyone."

"Our allies are waiting for us to come to our aid, don't let them wait too long."

"Now, let's go!"

The group hit the road in a mighty way, and the line was longer than the first time I went.

Three-quarters of the team of nearly 200 people are newcomers, and these people have not yet recovered from their excitement, and they want to touch everything they see along the way.

In reality, many of them haven't even seen the shadow of the snow, but there is already goose feather snow in this game!

Thanks to the heavy snowfall.

If you catch up with other seasons, it's either mutant cockroaches or rats, and there are basin-sized flies and fanged hyenas.

Touching casually, losing your arm is a trivial matter, and losing your life is a big loss.

Looking at these not-so-smart blue coats, the two Marines who followed behind Captain Lu glanced at each other.

"Are these people all right?"

"Why do I feel stupid and stupid......"

"Compared to the previous wave of people, it really doesn't look very smart."

Lu Yang was actually a little confused in his heart, but he didn't think much about it.

Although he hadn't seen the enthusiasm of the blue coats in person, he had heard from his colleagues in the logistics department.

Those people worked as if they were desperate, and they wanted to scrape off the ground with the ground.

Maybe that's how overly optimistic it is.

It doesn't matter if they're smart or not, as long as they can do their job well.

Nothing to say all the way.

Before ten o'clock, the group arrived at the operation camp, where the guards and players were on standby in the center of the camp, and Chu Guang met Old Luca here.

Seeing his master, old Luca greeted him with an excited face and said to him.

"My lord, we made a full 4530cr in a whole day yesterday!"

It's 105cr more than yesterday?

Chu Guang looked at him with a look of surprise.

"So much?"

Old Lukka nodded excitedly.

"Yes, my lord, that's all! Thanks to your idea, those snacks like buns, dumplings, etc., contributed at least 800cr! Those who wear gray coats, they will buy a lot of them at once and take them home! Especially this morning, even their section chief came to buy steamed buns from us! ”

That Li De?

Chu Guang really couldn't imagine that guy would be interested in their snacks, let alone that he was so generous.

But......

After all, the human stomach has a limit.

Hoping to make a fortune from this small business is still a little difficult after all.

But optimistically, I made almost 10,000 CR in 3 days, which is undoubtedly a good sign.

Maybe then a person doesn't have to die, maybe he can earn 100,000 yuan?

Try it anyway.

At this moment, Werther from the logistics section walked in the direction of the two of them.

"Are you the administrator of Vault 404?"

Chu Guang looked at him and nodded.

"It's me, who are you?"

Witt said with a friendly smile.

"My name is Werther, and I work in the logistics department, and I am mainly responsible for the work arrangement of the workers! Our section chief misses you so much that he asked me to say hello to you on his behalf. ”

Chu Guang also smiled kindly.

"Please bring him my greetings as well. Let's just say that his old friends miss him very much. ”

Witt smiled and continued.

"I will! There's one more thing I need to inform you about, about the new gathering site—"

While he was talking, the alarm suddenly sounded on the Pioneer not far away.

Hearing the siren, the players in the camp had surprised expressions on their faces.

"What's going on?!"

"Is it triggering the plot??"

"Exciting!"

The expressions on the faces of the three of them were stunned.

Chu Guang was the first to come back to his senses and asked towards Werther.

"What's going on?"

"Please wait a minute...... I'm asking. ”

Not paying attention to the expression on Chu Guang's face, Witt reached out and pressed the headset to the side of his face, and got in touch with his colleagues in the logistics department.

Gradually, his expression became serious.

After hanging up the communication, he looked at Chu Guang, took a deep breath and said.

"About 6 kilometers away from us, in the forest to the northwest of us, there is an unidentified group of armed forces that are heading in a straight line towards us. They are quite numerous and well-armed, not like outcasts in the wasteland. ”

Chu Guang said solemnly: "This ghost weather is still running around outside, it is definitely not a good person!" Do you need me to send someone to the front to investigate-"

Witt hurriedly waved his hand and said, "No, no, our people have already gone." In fact, we also judge this way, their purpose is too clear, and it is clear that they are coming for us! ”

After a pause, Witt continued with an ugly expression.

"I hate to say that, but we might be in trouble."
