This Game Is Too Realistic

Evening.

The players returned to the nursing home one after another. Brother Scrambled Egg, who was in charge, set up a cauldron in the open space and began to cook the last meal of the day.

Tonight's recipe was salt-boiled shofar potatoes with dried meat.

Thanks to the discovery of the new NPC stronghold, the shelter players finally had a meal other than fish soup.

The taste of these shofar potatoes was not bad. After boiled in salt water, it was poured with soy sauce. It tasted a bit like KFC mashed potatoes.

It just cost a little soy sauce.

Just making these 28 servings of mashed potatoes used almost one-fifth of a bottle of soy sauce, and they even used it sparingly.

On the other hand, the shelter's salt didn't seem to be enough, as only half a bag was left.

If it was consumed at this rate, it would only not take a few days for them to use up all the salt.

"Wow! This mashed potato is too great! Uncle Scrambled Egg, can I have another bowl?" Teng Teng squatting on the ground with a bowl in her hands, with a satisfied expression on her face.

"No, one bowl per person." Not satisfied with the word "Uncle", Scrambled Egg rolled his eyes and said in a bad mood.

"Then will we still have mashed potatoes tomorrow?" Teng Teng said pitifully.

"We can't afford it. There is not much soy sauce. I need to save it. If you want to eat mashed potatoes then order a takeaway in real life." As Brother Scrambled Egg said this, he sighed in his heart.

It was such a difficult task to cook for these guys every day.

After working as a chef for so many years, he has never wanted to save ingredients for his boss so much.

On the other side, Night Ten sat in the middle of the players while holding a bowl and talked about what happened during the day excitedly, even forgetting to eat.

He especially started talking more enthusiastically at the part when he encountered the creeper on the way back, excitedly putting down the bowl in his hand before picking up a branch and drawing it on the ground.

"At that time, I was walking on the street. Then all of sudden, I felt a chill on my back, and the warning signs all over my body suddenly became restless! At that moment, I immediately picked up the gun and pew pew pew—"

Ample Time, who was sitting next to him, couldn't help but mock.

"Pew pew pew my ass. You think you are shooting lasers or what?"

Night Ten gave a dry cough.

"That's not important!"

"What happened later? Carry on. How did you kill that thing?"

"Yes, yes, don't interrupt!"

The players next to him didn't pay much attention to these details. Whether he was bragging or not, the content itself was indeed very interesting, so they all clamoured and asked him to continue.

"Calm down, everyone. When the creeper pounced on me, I immediately slid..."

Seeing that everyone was so interested, Night Ten continued to describe how he supported the administrator who was entangled by the creeper, how he searched the drops, including how he was attacked, and how he tactically disconnected his device to cooperate with teammates to fight back...

Ample Time kept rolling his eyes when he heard his boasting. Unable to stand it anymore, he picked another place to eat his meal.

By the time they finished, the sun was setting.

Moving Little Seven from the upstairs, Chu Guang took the players back to the shelter in batches, watching them lie down in the culture chamber and exit the game safely.

Except for Mr. Garbage, who was still in the jungle, everyone was back.

However, Chu Guang was not very worried about him.

Through the player list, Chu Guang could confirm that this guy was still alive, but had gone offline two hours ago.

No matter how hardcore a player he was, it was impossible for him to spend 24 hours a day in the game. He still needed to get up to eat, move the limbs and so on in real life.

Moreover, the clones in the game also need to rest. No one could be awake for twenty-four hours straight, not even a lizardman.

According to the information disclosed on the official website.

Lying in the culture chamber was not the only way to go offline. As long as they lost their consciousness, they would be disconnected.

This included but was not limited to giving oneself a blow on the back of one's head, or finding a place to lie down and sleep.

However, this logout method was not very reliable.

Not only could their progress not be "saved", but it was also unsafe for them.

The clone quickly synthesized by the culture chamber did not possess any mentality.

In other words, in the absence of consciousness' connection, these clones would hardly respond to external stimuli.

At this time, if a mutant mouse or cockroach happened to pass by, those clones would definitely be killed.

But Mr. Garbage should have found a safe place to hide himself, at least it was quite safe for now.

Put the matter of Mr. Garbage aside for the time being.

Chu Guang sat down in front of the computer in the residents' lobby, and according to the usual practice, first summarized the results of today's work.

"The construction of the east wall is completed."

"In terms of resources, the inventory for building materials includes 110 logs, one ton of charcoal, one ton of Portland cement, two piles of yellow mud bricks, and a few hardened cement blocks. If consumed, 240 logs and 800 kilograms of cement... The timber inventory has fallen for two consecutive days, but the cement inventory has actually begun to balance..."

It seemed that a few loggers had to be arranged.

Or, increase the logging requirements for players' daily tasks.

"The food inventory includes 350 kilograms of green wheat and shofar potatoes, 5 kilograms of dried meat, and a small amount of berries and mushrooms. We've consumed about 5 kilograms of dried dried meat, 10 kilograms of shofar potatoes, and 50 kilograms of dried meat and 20 kilograms of smoked fish for trading… Players have to continue hunting tomorrow."

"Then the fur inventory... In addition to the transaction consumption, the raw materials consumed 5 furs. Today, Teng Teng actually made 5 pieces of clothes? Not bad... Let me see, that should be 250 contribution points."

"By the way, there is also an increase in weapon inventory… I will have to plan an arsenal in the future."

Finally, today's daily mission earned 7 bonus points.

I could use them on the blind box again.

After summing up the data, Chu Guang leaned back on the chair and stretched.

As he finished these tasks, the 30 activated culture chambers had completed the scanning of the clones, the somatic cell sampling and archiving, and summarized the players' genetic sequence development progress and panel data on a table.

Chu Guang glanced at it briefly.

Perhaps it was because the jobs at the outposts at the current stage were dominated by manual labor, but players of the strength type obviously generally leveled up faster.

For example, Old White was now LV3.

In addition, Night Ten, who had been going out with him, had also lived up the genetic sequence from LV1 to LV2, and his main attribute perception had reached 9, making him the player with the highest perception in the entire outpost.

"Master!"

Seeing Little Seven moving to the table, Chu Guang looked away from the computer.

"What's wrong?"

"Why did you pick up a strange woman from outside?"

Chu Guang was almost choked by these words.

Although there was nothing wrong with saying this, he always felt that it was not quite right.

"What are you talking about?"

"Little Seven saw it all on the roof, you carried her back."

"So?" Chu Guang said annoyedly.

With no undulating electronic sound, Little Seven said aggrievedly.

"It's nothing, I just want to remind you that compared to clones, the naitve people in the wasteland are more difficult to control. It's better not to trust them too easily."

"You're thinking too much, I have never completely trusted anyone, whether it's the players or the natives here." Chu Guang said lightly.

"Mhm mhm, then I can rest assured!"

The camera on Little Seven's head shook up and down, nodding.

"By the way, you can always trust Little Seven. No matter what happens, Little Seven is your most loyal assistant!"

"Okay, got it."

"So perfunctory!"

Can't this robot stop talking for a while while charging?

Chu Guang resisted the urge to complain and continued to stare at the computer screen.

Ten minutes have passed since the players went offline. Not surprisingly, now was the liveliest time for the official forum.

It was a pleasant peeking screen time again.

While humming a little song for self-entertainment, Chu Guang opened the back end system of the official website and first checked the Number of applications.

The number of applications had doubled, and now it had almost reached 300.

Now the threshold for applying for the close beta test has changed from filling in the form to filling in the form + answering questions.

Although they were all common sense questions, if players could read the questions patiently and fill in the blanks, it could at least screen out players who were serious about playing.

Those who could pass could be said to be quite good players.

At the same time, the number of visits to the official website had also increased a lot, with an average daily visit volume of 1,000.

Although not everyone had registered an account and not everyone had clicked to apply for the close beta test, at least it showed that Wasteland Online was becoming more and more well-known in the gaming circle.

Obviously it was a website that didn't even have record information. In addition to a lot of text settings, there were only a few photos of the construction site. But no one expected that so many people would be attracted to it.

Chu Guang couldn't help having this feeling in his heart.

"There are still too many boring people."

But that was not a bad thing.

Anyway, since they were idle, it was better for them to come to work for him in the "game".

Closing the back end system of the website and entering the forum, as Chu Guang had expected, offline players all came here to report, and the forum was very lively at the moment.

Including Mr. Garbage, who went offline two hours ago, was also posting on the forum.

Garbage_pickup_level_99: [Damn, I was really exhausted today, but fortunately there was still a gain! There is a tire processing factory about 2 kilometers north of the abandoned construction site. Someone was patrolling nearby with a dog. It is suspected to be a marauder camp, but I'm not sure if it is! I plan to take a closer look when it gets dark for a while, and after I confirm it, I will let you guys know."

[Gale: Brother Garbage is the man! ]

[Old White: Damn, I was wondering why I didn't see you when I went offline! Also, why can you go online during the day? ? ? ]

[Garbage_pickup_level_99: If you are mutants, you can too! That's enough talk, I'll be online after a short break. (Baring teeth)]}

[Night Ten: Huh! Showing off. ]

[Quit_smoking: Not to mention being able to go online during the day, if I could go online and take a look at myself, I would die without regret! T T]

[Ya Ya: I'm still waiting for the respawning CD to finish. Crying.jpg.]

[Garbage_pickup_level_99: (baring teeth)]

Except for Mr. Garbage alone, most of the players on the forum were discussing the new NPC brought back by the administrator and the newly discovered survivor settlement.

Especially the latter.

Players were particularly interested.

At the top of a long list of posts, Chu Guang quickly found an analysis post written by "There_will_be_ample_time".

This guy was as good at summarizing as always, and his posts were the most popular in the forum. If it weren't for the conditions, Chu Guang almost couldn't help but want him to be the planner of this game.

[... I have to praise this Alpha 0.2 version update! It can be seen that the developers worked really hard to make this game great! ]

[The content of this update is far more than just a few optimization items listed on the official website, including new camps, new monster models, larger maps, etc. The content is far more abundant than I thought before! ]

[For example, at the Brown Farm we traded with this time, as soon as I walked under the concrete wall, I was shocked by the game's official art design. That kind of immersive feeling is difficult to describe in words, whether it is the post-apocalyptic architectural style, or the detailed texture of the clothing on different NPCs, I can see traces of hard work and conscientiousness everywhere! Instead of using the fake cover to deceive players' eyes! ]

[In addition, there is a test of the combat system. On the way back, we were attacked by a creeper, and had a frightening battle. Prior to this, I always thought that this kind of mutant only existed in the settings, but I didn't expect it to be revealed in the current version! ]

[I have to say that our administrator is worthy of being a novice guide, and his combat effectiveness is simply outrageous! The moment the creeper leaped over, neither Night Ten nor I reacted; we could only watch on from the side, and he was the only one who was doing all the damage. I was very surprised that the two-meter-high Creeper was killed by him using a small metal water pipe alone! ]

[In addition, for me, the most surprising thing is that a new NPC has joined our outpost! Her special status may bring us more new ways to play, such as weapon modification, even more side plots, etc... I think I can look forward to it! ]

[For more information about the Alpha 0.2 version update, I will continue to update in the post, Wasteland Survivors can bookmark the post for the future update! ]

Hard work...

Alas, that's really nice of him. It almost made Chu Guang blush.

After reading the post from the beginning to the end, Chu Guang was so happy that he almost couldn't even close his mouth.

But Chu Guang also felt that he was indeed quite conscientious, at least he had not taken players' money.

It was the next-generation game after all, so normally this kind of game would not be free.

In fact, not just playing, even if some players wanted to try it, some game companies would probably ask people to apply for the membership first!

Seeing that the player was praising him, Chu Guang was very happy and pinned Ample Time's post.

After he closed the post and just when he was thinking about what to do to pass the long night, Little Seven's upset voice came next to him.

"Master."

"The woman you brought back has woken up."
