Chapter 176: Thank you for nature's gifts

On the way back, Yin Fang held the holographic video tightly with both hands, looking solemn, as if he was holding his own child.

The right hand rubbed on it again and again, and it was almost touched.

Mommy......

Fortunately, I remembered the password.

Chu Guang looked at it and felt spicy, and turned his face sideways with an old man's mobile phone. However, at this time, Yin Fang suddenly looked at him with blazing eyes.

"If I bring this thing back, do you think the academy will let me go? That box is for you, and I don't want anything. ”

Chu Guang rolled his eyes at him.

"I'm a little polite to you, don't you just treat me as a Kaizi."

Yin Fang's expression was stunned.

Chu Guang stretched out his hand easily, and took the box of holographic videos from his arms without much effort.

"You know what? I didn't kill you, I'm already worthy of you. ”

Looking at the young man whose face was gradually pale, Chu Guang did not continue to scare him, and patted him on the shoulder with a smile.

"You know the first time I came into this world...... Ahem, I mean the first time I woke up, what happened? ”

Yin Fang swallowed, his voice trembling slightly.

"What ...... encountered?"

"A dog with two heads, it was like it had run out of hell to pick me up," Chu Guang said casually, tucking the holotape into his pocket, "If I had been a little slower at the time, I might have died." In fact, I later found out that if I was running east or north, it would be a dead end. It's a fluke that the contemptible person survived, and I will cherish this life, so I advise you, and it's best not to make me feel like you're a threat. ”

To the west is the lake, a dead end. Colliding with the marauders to the north, and running directly into the mutant's pot to the east, is worse than death.

Even now that he thinks about it, Chu Guang can't help but pinch a cold sweat for himself.

Yin Fang opened his mouth, his expression looking a little dumbfounded.

Chu Guang ignored him, folded his arms and closed his eyes, sorting out the information he had obtained from the tape before, and thinking about how to edit it for a while, and update this hologram on the official website.

The few young players sitting in the truck looked at each other, and their expressions were like watching a foreign-language movie without subtitles for a long time, with a bewildered face with a capital letter.

Quan Shui hooked his finger at the battlefield brother, motioned for him to lean over, and whispered in a low voice.

"How do you think we should suggest that the manager give us a reward?"

The war dude looked confused.

"I don't know...... Straight to ask? ”

Both were embarrassed to speak first.

At this time, I opened my mouth in the darkest after not speaking.

"Administrator! Is our mission accomplished? ”

Looking up at a pair of expectant eyes, Chu Guang suddenly seemed to have forgotten to give money.

The majestic expression on his face remained unchanged, and he nodded calmly and said.

"You're doing a great job, you're all doing well."

After thinking about it, Chu Guang finally decided to give the players a little sweetness, selected a pre-edited task reward on the VM, and clicked send.

[Hint: Trigger hidden branches.] 】

[Reward: 10 credits, 100 contribution points]

As for the dormant pods on the truck, it was the job of the warehouse manager, and Chu Guang was not responsible for helping them calculate how much the garbage was worth.

Seeing the prompt popping up on the VM screen, the players' faces showed excited expressions.

Not to mention 10 silver coins, there are 100 contribution points rewarded after a plot!

That's cool, isn't it?

Seeing them so happy, Chu Guang was also happy in his heart.

If only everyone in the wasteland was as cute as his little players.

The truck kept moving in the direction of Long-term Farm.

However, at this moment, a gunshot was suddenly heard in the distance ahead, and the bullets whizzed past the truck, and one of them hit the front window.

"Engage the enemy!"

"It's a marauder!"

There were quite a few people on the other side, and there were more than 30 gunshots in that salvo, but these people were obviously laymen, and they were so far away that they fired from such a distance, and not a single one of them fell.

The player who drove the car was also a ruthless person, seeing that the bullet was coming from the front, he didn't panic at all, and the steering wheel was slightly raised, skillfully slamming the front of the car into the snow.

While preventing the engine from being damaged, he pulled on the handbrake and stopped with the cushion of the snow, grabbed his rifle and jumped out of the car.

"The one who pulls the bolt is in the back, and the brethren with the assault rifle follow me! We packed them from the flanks! ”

"Whoa!"

"It's coming, it's coming!"

Seeing that the opportunity to make meritorious service came, the players on the truck had green eyes and jumped out of the car one after another, leaving the spring commander still on the truck.

Although this guy also wants to get on it, he has a ten-man pistol on his body, and he can't hit anyone at such a long distance, and he is afraid that the equipment will fall off if he is too close to the face.

In a hurry, he shouted.

"Get on board! I'm at home! ”

As he spoke, he symbolically fired a shot in front, regardless of whether he hit or not, anyway, this combat state should be regarded as hanging.

Bullets were whizzing next to him, and Yin Fang, who was holding his head and getting up from the carriage, looked around nervously.

"What's the situation?!"

Could it be that someone from the academy is chasing after you?!

"Small scene, don't panic."

Chu Guang held the hammer in his right hand, but after seeing the situation on the other side, he pouted again, released the hammer and held the Gauss rifle.

The magazine contains replica ammunition.

The armor is a bit hanging, but it is more than enough to fight this kind of miscellaneous soldiers......

……

At the same time, behind a snowdrift three hundred meters in front of the truck, about thirty men in navy blue uniforms lay on their stomachs.

They held a unified iron tube rifle in their hands, and at first glance they were all ten-captain commanders of the legion, but there was not a single soldier under their hands, and they also looked crooked and cracked, and they were malnourished.

The bare-faced, tattooed man with a tin horn rolled up in his hand, lay behind the cover and shouted loudly.

"Listen, do you see our clothes? You're surrounded by legions! Acquaintances quickly throw away their weapons and surrender! Otherwise, what awaits you will be the punishment of the Legion! ”

I shouted for a long time and didn't respond.

The other side was still whizzing over their heads as if they hadn't heard it, or whizzing down on the bunkers in front.

The man with Moxigan's head shaved looked nervously at the bald brother on the side, and said with a panicked look in his eyes.

"Boss! These people ...... It's hard to deal with! ”

There was no reaction to their morale offensive!

He even felt that as soon as the horn shouted, the other side fought back even more fiercely.

The bald head scolded and slapped him on the head.

"Useless thing, afraid of a hammer! Counting the drivers, there are only nine of them, and we have thirty-two guns here, and we can't eat them? Call me! Don't let them run! ”

After saying that, he added another sentence.

"By the way, don't kill you! Leave two hostages, and we have to ask the people in their village for ransom! ”

The bald man's name was Tu, and he was originally a marauder active in the central part of the province of River Valley. As for why it reached the southernmost part of the province of the River Valley, it would be a long story.

The legion fought with the people of the Great Rift Valley in the north for a whole year, and the progress was not very smooth, and a few days ago it suffered a great defeat, and the men of General Klaas's men were killed, wounded, and fled, and the whole army was defeated.

According to the people who fled from the north, the remnants of the legion were like locusts, and there was no grass growing in the places they passed, and even the aliens had to walk around.

Tu naturally didn't believe this kind of nonsense, just thought that the idiot was frightened and dizzy, and wanted to live to tell some nonsense, let people drag out the blood, and throw it in the pot for wine.

Corps?

Oh, isn't that the defeat of the Rift Valley's men?

It's not about sending him equipment!

However, maybe Tu himself didn't expect that on the third day when he and the little ones bragged about making the head of the legion commander into a night pot, the deserters of the legion really ran to the town in front of his house.

There weren't many people coming, only nine tens, and not a single clone slave. These people may have been blown crazy by the shells of the Great Rift Valley, or they may have been blown up by the shells of their own people, in short, they are red-eyed, and when they see people, they just snap two shots, and they don't say hello.

Tu, who commanded more than 100 brothers, was naturally not afraid of them, so he surrounded them with people, and sure enough, he solved the opposite side in two moments.

However, something happened that made Tu stunned, more than 100 people beat nine people, and the battle damage was beaten one for another, and he was so angry that he cut down the only prisoner he caught on the spot, and even forgot about the ransom!

After not waiting for two days, another wave of deserters came, this time there were a little more ten-captains, there were twelve, and there were seventeen or eighteen clone slaves. They didn't kill anyone on sight like the previous group of madmen, but picked a survivor settlement and directly occupied it.

That settlement paid Tu a protection fee, and seeing that his meal ticket was gone, Tu of course couldn't bear it, and led people to surround him.

However, this fight was unbearable, and a third of it was lost by the opposite side, not that the opposite side ran out of bullets, and almost lost.

This time, Tu was really scared, and he finally understood the horror of locusts. In less than a week, thirty or forty brothers died, and countless more were wounded.

Even if they make a living from looting, they can't afford such exaggerated attrition.

Hearing that the deserters of the legion were coming again, Tu was so frightened that he didn't even dare to fight this time, so he directly took his cronies, packed up his things and ran south.

After going through a bumpy road, half of the people on the road were scattered, and finally they found a survivor stronghold that seemed to be well-off.

The people here don't seem to be easy to mess with, though. The soldiers standing on the wall were all holding rifles, and the smoke wafting in the camp did not stop, and only a hundred or so people could be seen living outside, and no one knew how many people lived inside.

Tu didn't act rashly, didn't even dare to get too close, found a high ground in the north, and looked there with a telescope.

After waiting for two days, when the brothers were almost unable to hold back, they finally seized the opportunity to do so.

A truck headed for an abandoned city to the north, with only a few people on board.

Tu did not hesitate, immediately seized the opportunity, and led people to ambush them on the way back, preparing to ambush them in a wave to eat.

However, to Tu's surprise, things didn't seem to go as smoothly as he expected, and after those people were hit head-on, not only did they panic as expected, but even separated people to outflank them.

At this moment, something suddenly exploded next to it, and there was a "pop" sound, startling Tu who was about to poke out of the bunker and fire.

", what the hellβ€”" Tu Meng turned his head violently, it didn't matter what he looked at, he was scared on the spot.

I saw that one of his brothers' heads seemed to have been bombarded, and his entire brain was blown away, leaving a lonely half of his neck standing there, and blood was gushing out.

Before he could react to what was happening, another bang came from the side.

This brother was even worse than the previous one, and he was blown into a large hole in his chest with a cover, and he fell to the ground and struggled for a while before swallowing half of the breath that hung from his mouth.

It's not just Tu Tu who is stunned this time.

The marauder brothers standing next to him were also stunned, and even forgot to shoot for a while.

β€œβ€¦β€¦ What kind of weapon is that!? ”

"It's the guy in the truck!"

"Grass! Gauss rifles?! How could they have Gauss rifles! ”

The Marauders had heard rumors of the Gauss rifle, and although they didn't know how it worked, they had heard that it could pierce power armor with a single shot, and that it was better than the Legion's anti-materiel rifles.

As soon as they heard that it was a Gauss rifle, everyone panicked and did not dare to show their heads to shoot back, but the more this happened, the more dangerous their situation became.

The marauder with the head of Mohican looked at the boss and said in fear.

"Boss, let's withdraw!"

Stay in the green mountains, don't be afraid of no firewood, if you continue to fight, you will be wiped out by others. The four-legged sheep are not easy to find, but there are many two-legged ones, and this survivor stronghold can't be gnawed, so it's a big deal to change them.

Tu was still hesitating, reason told him that he should withdraw, but he couldn't bear to let go of the fat sheep that came to his mouth. Even with a Gauss rifle, their side would still have the upper hand, as long as he took a part of the men and went around them from the sideβ€”

Just as he was thinking this, the sound of gunfire came from the other direction, followed by a volley of bullets whizzing into their backs.

Caught off guard, several marauders in the back screamed for their lives.

Tu was shocked, and hurriedly looked back, only to see that at some point, a team of people had been killed in the direction of the elm district.

And there are quite a few people!

There are more than a dozen of them!

"Boss! Their reinforcements have arrived! ”

"Close your beak, I need you to remind you! Damn it! Tu was shocked and angry, and hurriedly divided a part of his men and filled them in the direction of the west to prevent the reinforcements from continuing to advance in this direction.

He couldn't figure out how these people could support so quickly, and it was only ten minutes since the gunshots rang out.

Even if you react, you have to react for a while, right?!

The situation was reversed in an instant, and two groups of people were in an east-west trend, sandwiching them on a gentle slope running north-south!

There are people on both the west and east sides, and no matter which side of the reverse slope is used as cover, they are all pressed on the other side on the halfway slope.

After a while, several more people fell to the ground, and several more were blown to slag by Gauss rifles.

In just a dozen minutes, the casualties approached thirty percent, and where did these rabble still have the courage to continue fighting.

Tu could no longer control his subordinates.

The crowd lost their fighting positions and fled to the north, running as if they were dead. However, both their physical strength and physical fitness themselves are far inferior to those who eat three meals a day.

Especially in the eyes of the players, these fleeing Marauders are like walking credits and contributions, as well as regional prestige!

This is an encounter triggered near the Long Farm, so it's not too much prestige for a region of one or two hundred, right?

The benevolent and generous manager is on the scene, even if the dog planner Ah Guang picks a little, Lord Dawn, who has the authority of the server, will definitely not be stingy with this little reward!

Looking at their fleeing backs, the chasing little players were like hungry wolves with green eyes, and they chased after them one after another.

"Don't run!"

"Shoot or kill!"

"Hold your head and squat!"

During this time, some veteran players still learned a few words that NPCs could understand, and there was a burst of screaming, but a few marauders really understood, and threw away their weapons and squatted on the ground with their heads in their hands.

In the whole encounter, the player's side suffered 0 deaths and 3 injuries, and all of them were minor injuries, and one of them chased too fiercely, tripped over the roots buried in the snow, and knocked his nose.

In reality, it will definitely hurt for a long time, but in the game, even if you leave it alone, it's fine.

As for the marauders, it was miserable, with 11 dead and 26 captured.

Giving each player who participated in the battle a reward of 50 silver, 50 tribute, and 100 regional prestige, Chu Guang then instructed the young players who cheered for the victory to take these captives to the open space in front of the north gate of the long farm, and squatted on the ground with their heads in their hands.

Walking in front of the prisoners of war with two guards, Chu Guang glanced at the navy blue coats on their bodies and asked.

"You're from the Legion? Who are your chiefs? ”

Tu, whose nose was blue and his face was swollen, trembled and wanted to raise his hand, but before he could speak, the little minion next to him replied tremblingly.

"I, we're not, my lord."

That's the average predator.

Chu Guang knew in his heart, and continued to look at them and asked.

"Where did you get this garment?"

Tu, who was squatting on the side, hurriedly said.

"The regiment in the north suffered a defeat, and I heard that the chief general of the expeditionary force, General Klaas, had been executed by the men of the Great Rift Valley, and that the deserters of the regiment either ran west or south, and killed people on sight like locusts, and our clothes and guns were all picked up from the deserters of the ten-commander."

The garment worked well, especially a little further north, and many of the survivors were scared to death at the sight of the navy blue coat and turned to run.

Tu also wondered, aren't these people afraid?

The Legion lost?

Chu Guang was surprised, but not surprised.

Such a heavy snow must be even more unfriendly to the attackers with long supply lines. If he were a general of the expeditionary force, he would definitely consider launching a decisive battle before the situation worsened, and completely decide the winner, and if he loses, he will return to his own home, and if he wins, he will live in the enemy's house.

The appearance of Vanus confirmed his suspicion that these people could no longer fight. It's just that what Chu Guang didn't expect was that the expeditionary force actually lost so completely, and even General Klaas was killed.

The rout of the legion was raging everywhere, and even the marauders were forced south.

I'm afraid this winter won't be easy......

Seeing that Chu Guang was deep in thought, Old Luca thought that he was not sure what to do with these captives, so he stepped forward and whispered.

"My lord, if you can't decide what to do, you might as well refer to my advice."

"Say."

"Now is the time when we need manpower to do the work, it's a pity to kill it directly, it's better to send it to be a coolie, and wait for the spring of next year, depending on whether to keep it and continue to use it, or sell it to the mines in Honghe Town."

That's a good idea.

Chu Guang nodded.

There is just one more problem.

"The guards are running out of manpower, what if someone escapes?"

Luca Sr. continued.

"This is actually very easy to solve, the new prisoners of war and the old prisoners of war are mixed, the two of them are divided into a cell, one is missing, and the other three are all hanged."

Chu Guang's eyes lit up: "This is a good idea, how did you come up with it?" ”

Lukka smiled slightly awkwardly and said respectfully with his head bowed.

"My lord, this is not a very unusual thing...... Many of the survivor colonies of slavery did just that. ”

All right.

It seems that he is too kind.

Chu Guang sighed in his heart, then looked at those marauders, made a majestic expression on his face, looked down at them and said.

"I was going to hang you on the gallows, but killing the prisoners is not a righteous act."

Looking at the trembling captives, he continued.

"From today onwards, you will accept the transformation of labor and strive to be a useful thing for society, civilization, and mankind."

After saying that, he didn't look at them, Chu Guang looked at Old Luca.

"I'll leave these people to you."

Old Lukka nodded respectfully.

"Yes, sir."

After returning to the Vault, Chu Guang took a look around the official website, especially checking the progress of the strategy at the entrance of Vault 117.

The mole brother is still very powerful.,Cooperate with mosquitoes to develop a set of tumor plays.,That is-find a new agility department of the monster.,Pull the monster up and set fire to kill it.。

The monsters in "Wasteland Online" have no limit on the distance they can pursue, and for those monsters that don't have a fixed nest, as long as you are strong enough, the monsters can theoretically chase you to the ends of the earth.

They've already killed 2 creepers with this play!

Brother Mole thought he had found a bug and didn't dare to say it too clearly on the forum, but what he didn't know was that the VM would record their communication and secretly upload it to the cloud.

Chu Guang combined their course of action, and they could guess it without Xiao Qi's help.

In addition to Brother Mole, another more active closed beta player on the forum today is the "European Emperor" Spring Water Brother.

This guy found 10 dormant pods, all of which were in good condition, and got a total of 700 silver coins, and two teammates had one point, each with an average of 233.3 silver.

And that's not even counting the income from the battles and episodes that followed.

In addition, the spring water brother also opened a separate post, Amway took up the mosquito's "steel nail 1.0" and called it a melee artifact.

"Brother Meng, believe me, Brother Mosquito is occasionally reliable. I swear, I've never seen a better melee weapon than a thing! When I was knocked down by the creeper, and I was about to be bitten off my neck, I immediately clenched my fist, and with a bang, the creeper's head was pierced! Simple and brutal, kill with one hit! I'd like to call it the strongest version! ”

Night Ten: "Tell me, how much money did the mosquito give you to advertise with your conscience." (Funny)"

WC really has mosquitoes: "Gan! What do you mean that once in a while it will be reliable, and my Hellfire and Storm are not reliable? Is it good to have a strong batch! ”

Picking up trash level 99: "I testify!" Mosquitoes can occasionally be reliable, but it's a bit costly, last time I carried the boiler on my back to the trench and had a good time, and it took three days to go online. ”

WC really has mosquitoes: "Pay back!" ”

Trash Picking Level 99: "QAQ"

Chu Guang, who was peeping at the screen, couldn't help but sigh.

"These guys are such talents."

At this time, there was a knock at the door.

Chu Guang didn't look up, and answered casually.

"Please come in."

I thought it was Boss Xia who came to harass him again, but I didn't expect that the person who came was Yin Fang.

As soon as the young man entered the door, he did not speak, but stood with his head down for a long time before he opened his mouth with a face full of shame.

"I ......"

"Gotta apologize to you."
