This Game is Too Real

Chapter 193: Incredible slime mold

The planting area on the b3 layer.

  

   The last row of the soilless planting unit.

  

   Standing in front of a transparent shop window, Chu Guang touched his chin with his right hand, and the handsome Sunshine face was full of surprises.

  

   "Potatoes, corn, tomatoes, Chinese cabbage, cabbage... I didn't expect that there are so many good things hidden here."

  

   originally planned to come and take a look at the situation in the planting area, but after walking around the planting unit, he unexpectedly found a surprise here.

  

   I saw that behind the transparent window, there were boxes with only labels on them, which contained different kinds of crop seeds.

  

   These seeds are soaked in a special solution and kept at a very low temperature.

  

  Chu Guang counted carefully. There are 12 kinds of pre-war crops stored in the freezer. The growth cycle ranges from short to long, and the suitable climate ranges from tropical to frigid zones, almost completely covering them.

  

   No matter what kind of climatic environment the residents of the refuge are facing after the gate of the refuge is opened, they can find at least one species suitable for the current climate for sowing.

  

   In addition, these seeds are also genetically modified and improved varieties, which are roughly similar to the β-712 cotton seeds that he previously opened out of the blind box.

  

   quietly followed the manager, looking at the interesting expression on his face, Makabazi said excitedly.

  

   "Master Manager, I think we should make use of these idle facilities!"

  

   Chu Guang nodded and said.

  

   "You are right, I do have this plan."

  

   Hearing these words, Macabazi, who was standing next to him, looked expectant, but when the manager turned and left, he didn't wait for the words he was expecting.

  

   blinked awkwardly, he quickly lowered his head and glanced at vm.

  

Huh?

  

   Why didn't the task trigger?

  

   Is it the wrong gesture to trigger the dialogue?

  

  ……

  

  The soilless planting unit in the planting area, sowing, watering, fertilizing and final harvesting can all be completed through preset procedures.

  

   In a sense, similar to the black box production method, the demand for manpower and planting experience is extremely low.

  

   There is no need for players to take care of such a highly automated facility. Chu Guang intends to hand it over to Xiao Qi.

  

   Too much manual participation will actually drag down the efficiency of the facility.

  

   In terms of production thinking, Chuguang intends to focus on the breeding of staple grain varieties with a longer growth cycle, supplemented by planting short-cycle crops such as cabbage.

  

   When the spring starts next year, the seeds of the staple food crops will come in handy.

  

   "With 50 planting units, the theoretical planting area adds up to only 50 acres... it's still a bit less."

  

   Even if one acre of intensive farming can feed 5 people, the output of 50 acres is enough to feed 250 people, and it is not even enough to cover the new players in the alpha0.9 version.

  

   Every time he thinks of this, Chu Guang feels puzzled.

  

   "This is very unreasonable. The planting area of ​​the refuge can't even support the evacuees on this floor. Do people here eat nutrient cream?"

  

   It shouldn't be so miserable.

  

Or……

  

  There is another secret?

  

   In any case, food is a big problem.

  

   In addition to food, his little players also need fur coats to withstand the severe cold. Although the blue jacket has the function of keeping warm, it is only for the general cold. This winter in Qingquan City, the lake has even been showing signs of freezing, which obviously cannot be described by ordinary cold.

  

   Compared with the training cabin, the supply of materials needed by a player is a more urgent problem that needs to be solved at the moment.

  

   The more troublesome thing is that it will be December, and Winter has already entered the Gao Dynasty, and I am afraid that everyone will not have much food.

  

   Brown Farm can no longer squeeze any oil and water, and there are no survivors' settlements with relatively high food production in the vicinity.

  

  The only thing you can count on is the remains of the greenhouse.

  

   I hope Mr. Macabazi can give me a little bit of strength.

  

   Some time has passed, and I don’t know how his cornfield is going.

  

   After leaving the planting area, Chu Guang turned a corner and went to the infirmary next door, intending to see what his newly recruited bioengineering experts were up to.

  

   Due to the frequent onlookers and harassment of the players, the door here seems to be locked by her.

  

   Although for Chu Guang, the doors on floors b1 to b3 are like decorations to him, he still politely presses the doorbell because of his high EQ.

  

   The doorbell rang.

  

   opened soon.

  

   Passing through the infirmary, Chu Guang went straight to the room inside.

  

   Judging from the equipment here and the layout of the room, it should be a medical laboratory.

  

   When he passed through the movable door, Heya, wearing a blue coat, was standing in front of an electron microscope, aligning his eyes to the observation port, and skillfully manipulating the buttons on the touch screen with his right hand.

  

   Standing by and observing for a while, Chu Guang asked with interest.

  

"This is?"

  

  The movement of her hands kept on, and Heya, whose eyes stuck to the eyepieces, said excitedly.

  

   "Mutated slime mold! Sample collected from the eater! Thanks to your wanjias...should it be said that? Anyway, please thank them for me!"

  

   It seems that she is already fully familiar with the players' usage, although she has not yet been fully accustomed to their enthusiasm.

  

   Chu Guang was very pleased with this.

  

   It would be nice if all his NPCs had such a high level of savvy, in which case his micro-manipulation could at least be more than doubled.

  

   "I will convey my gratitude for you. How is it? Can you see something?"

  

   Unlike her own refuge residents who have lived in the wasteland for a period of time, Heya had been in Vault 117 before. Although she had heard about the dangerous species that were active outside, she had never really come into contact with it.

  

The manager of    Refuge No. 117 is a relatively conservative leader and does not support taking samples from the waste soil back to the refuge at the risk of unbalanced ecological environment in the refuge.

  

   And Chu Guang didn't have so much scruples. Refuge 404 had been opened long ago, and he didn't plan to seal the gate completely. It was not bad at all.

  

   Therefore, when he heard that Heya was planning to list the alien species in the wasteland as the research object, he immediately agreed without saying anything, and even gave her a budget of 2,000 silver coins.

  

   Even if you can learn more about the weaknesses of these aliens, the money is definitely worth it.

  

"More than just seeing what, these samples simply overturned my first impression of them! At first I thought that these mutant slime molds are parasitic relationships with the alien species you call gnaws and creepers, but then I discovered that It's not like that at all."

  

   Hearing these words, Chu Guang was slightly stunned.

  

   This is completely different from the rumors he has learned.

  

"……Is not it?"

  

   Heya stared at the microscope without hesitation.

  

"Of course not! Gnaws, creepers, and martyrdom... According to the samples that have been collected so far, these creatures that you call the slime mold are in fact the fruiting bodies of the mutant slime mold. It's not another species!"

  

   Hearing words that he didn't understand at all, Chu Guang asked in a daze.

  

   "Fruit body? What is that?"

  

"A spore-forming structure! You may not know about slime molds. They have very special habits. Sometimes they crawl around on the ground like amoeba, and sometimes they stand up like mushrooms to release spores. The habits of this mutant slime mold are even more peculiar. The fruit bodies they form are different from other slime molds. In terms of morphology and behavior, they appear to be highly similar to higher animals with complex body structures and highly differentiated organ functions!"

  

   That beautiful face is full of scientific enthusiasm.

  

   Even if the microscope eyepiece blocked her eyes, Chu Guang could clearly feel that her body exuded a completely different temperament from usual.

  

   Chu Guang said cautiously.

  

   "Can you explain it in detail? I mean, try to use terms that laymen can understand."

  

"What a layman can understand is that these slime molds show the same sociality as ants and bees! They have a clear division of labor. Some make up toes, some make up heads, some actively necrosis and harden, and the other ones. The formation of nerve tissue and the muscles that affect the movement of the limbs! It is like a certain unified consciousness that determines the selective expression of each gene in the slime mold cells."

  

   Eyes moved away from the eyepiece of the microscope, Heya looked at Chu Guang with excitement.

  

"Did you not notice! The gnaws are completely reproduced after the human model, and the creepers are like some kind of combination of four-legged beasts and humans. They not only imitate the appearance of other creatures, but also Imitated the hunting habits of those creatures!"

  

"The saboteurs are strange. They seem to contain the characteristics of a variety of creatures and some plants. They simulate explosives in their attack methods and use self-sacrifice to help their kind catch their prey... This is incredible! These slime molds are real. Is it a creature on this planet?"

  

   Looking at Heya who was babbling, Chu Guang's face was full of weird expressions.

  

   He was only planning to let her take care of the crops next door part-time. Anyway, the soilless planting units are highly automated, and they only need to take a look occasionally.

  

   In the end, I didn't expect to hear something amazing from her.

  

   "You mean... the slime mold species of eater, creeper, and smasher are all fruiting bodies of mutant slime mold? Is it something used to release spores?"

  

   Chu Guang pressed his temple with his index finger, and after trying to understand, his brow frowned, "That's not right, I heard that they were produced by the mother's nest."

  

   "Mother nest? What is that!"

  

  Heya ​​grabbed Chu Guang's arm and said with piercing eyes, "Can you get a sample? By the way, you taught me that you can use vm..."

  

   Halfway through, Heya seemed to remember something, and released her hand holding Chu Guang's arm, and raised VM to prepare to "place an order."

  

   Chu Guang was taken aback by her actions, and quickly stopped her.

  

   "Don't get excited, the brood is not something that current players can solve. You are asking them to die."

  

   good fellow.

  

   Is this using vm as a wishing machine? !

  

   Even if his little player is easy to use, it is not so useful!

  

   Heya, who was stopped, was slightly at a loss, and the movement of her hand stopped.

  

   "That brood...is it difficult to deal with?"

  

   "It's no longer a difficult problem, but it can't be dealt with at all."

  

   Although according to the standards set by himself, this kind of task would not pass the trial at Xiao Qi, but Chu Guang felt that he still had to let this old popsicle who lacked common sense of wasteland understand what the world had become.

   Looking at Heya who was stunned, Chu Guang paused for a moment, and stated to her the information he had summarized under the relevant entries in the official website setting collection.

  

   This includes Luo Hua’s experience during the journey, including the "waves" that erupt every once in a while in Qingquan City.

  

   After listening to these amazing things, Heya finally had a general understanding of the dangers of the brood.

  

   This thing is extremely dangerous!

  

   is like a natural disaster.

  

   Even a veteran local survivor force such as Boulder City with a certain degree of industrial ability will find it difficult to face the wave set off by the brood.

  

   As for collecting samples from the brood, it is almost impossible to take refuge in the current conditions.

  

   "Sorry, I don't know... This turns out to be such a dangerous thing." A look of ashamed appeared on Heya's face.

  

   Chu Guang shook his head and said.

  

"It's okay. I was surprised when I first heard about the brood. The research on alien species can be done step by step. When we are able to solve the trouble in the city center, I promise you will get the sample you want. ."

  

   Although this condition is not yet available, Chu Guang has no doubt in his heart that he and his little players will one day eradicate the trouble in the city center.

  

   Anyway, I got interesting information from Heya.

  

   Chu Guang intends to selectively update this information in the official website setting set for his little players as a reference.

  

  ……

  

   The end of a busy day.

  

   The little players carrying javelins, spears, and axes drilled out of the depth of the tunnel on the b3 floor with unconsciousness.

  

   In one day, they successfully pushed the front to the south and north at the same time by 500 meters, killing nearly two thousand eater! Hundreds of martyrdoms, and nearly twenty creepers!

  

   The number of alien species in the tunnel is larger than expected, especially in the north direction, the gnawing people swarming, even forming a wave of corpses!

  

   However, the little experienced players are very clever. Wooden roadblocks are placed along the way to block the advancement of the eater, and at the same time stretch the team of the eater.

  

   Once the density cannot be formed, the eater is less scary.

  

   Dealing with this kind of alien species with a single attack method and relying on quantity to win, as long as it is not surrounded by them, even professional players who are not good at fighting can easily solve it.

  

   Not to mention those high players in the tunnel with an average level above lv6!

  

   In the refuge, there was a long queue at the bathroom door on the b2 and b3 floors, and the chattering noises became a noise.

  

   "Gan! Take a shower in front of you faster!"

  

   "That's it! Ditch a yo-yo! It's been ten minutes!"

  

   "!!! Are you all dogs? You don't need a bath for ten minutes?!"

  

   "It is strongly recommended to increase the water price!"

  

   "Don't increase the rate, increase the rate again, Boss Crow can't afford to take a shower!"

  

   "Go away!"

  

   Yin Fang, who was carrying the bucket, had planned to wash up before eating, but was shocked by the battle, but he didn't even dare to eat any food, so he hid in his makeshift laboratory.

  

  The same goes for the door of the laundry room.

  

  Especially the little players who got out of the tunnel. One or two of them are like going into a coal mine. There is more dust on their bodies than blood!

  

   finally squeezed out of the crowd.

  

   Ye Shi, who was planning to go back to the room and offline, happened to see Brother Mosquito, and seeing this guy with a gray face, he went up to say hello with a smile on his face.

  

   "Oh! Mosquito brother, are you in the mood today?"

  

   "What book, I made this for testing new equipment."

  

   "Blow up again?"

  

   Hearing this playful ridicule, the mosquito couldn't help rolling his eyes.

  

"What do you mean by exploding again! Can it be called a weapon if it is not exploded? In short, the results of the test today are not bad, but there is a small problem with the ratio of the propellant, and I sprayed ashes on Lao Tzu's face after it came out of the chamber, shit, I have to make the launch tube longer."

  

   After a pause, the mosquito looked at Ye Shi and continued.

  

   "Stop pulling the calf, by the way, did you see that stupid lizard? I didn't see that guy squatting in the corner to do push-ups today."

  

   Speaking of that lizard, Ye Shi suddenly became happy.

  

   "You mean that guy? Hahaha, he was crazy in the tunnel at the b3 floor exit! I guess it's not enough right now."

  

  I think that in the early versions, Brother Trash was called a gangbang. He was able to act at night in full server, drink blood, and tear alien species. All players were envious of it.

  

   But who would have thought that winter will come in less than a month, and the cold-blooded garbage brother will be directly frozen on the underground line, and he can't even get out the door of the refuge.

  

   is really a generation of gods, I only see the new people laugh, not the old people cry.

  

   The mosquito slapped his tongue.

  

  "Distressed brother rubbish, this guy has at least three versions, right?"

  

   Ye Shi also sighed with emotion.

  

   "Be confident and remove the word ‘ba’!"

  

   The night of the wasteland gradually darkened, and the realistic sunrise had already risen.

  

   Every time a player goes offline during the peak hours, the traffic on the official website forum of "Wasteland ol" will usher in a wave of small highs.

  

   Chu Guang glanced around the forum.

  

   found that the players are quite enthusiastic about the new version he launched.

  

   In less than 72 hours, more than a hundred strategies have been born.

  

   "The self-cultivation of a monster hunter! Single brush crack claw crab strategy! 》

  

   "The Scavenger Handbook! The host vomits blood to sum up, twenty cost-effective recycling materials! Just ask for a thumbs up! 》

  

   "The Son of Version is Born! The power scavengers tell you what it means to make miracles vigorously! Start with two hands, all equipment depends on picking up! 》

  

   "Guide to the entrance and exit tunnel on the b3 floor of Vault 404!" The four-physical perpetual motion method will take you out of the sky! Brush to the extinction of monsters! 》

  

  《……》

  

   Chu Guang simply read a few articles, and couldn't help but admire the wisdom and brains of these little players.

  

   What is a high-quality human player?

  

  The average level in the wasteland ol packaging and testing service!

  

  The enthusiasm of the people who wrote the strategy is very high, and the enthusiasm of the lively players, cloud players, and sand sculpture netizens is not small.

  

   Among the more than one hundred guides, the number of likes and replies accounted for more than 20%!

  

   In terms of bbs standards, this data is already quite exaggerated.

  

   However, what interests Chu Guang the most is not the guide posts, but the few high-profile posts in the discussion forum.

  

  Wc really has mosquitoes: "mmp! The power of the twelve-barreled rocket is enough, but the ejection speed is still a bit low! High-speed targets can't be hit at all! But is it unexpectedly good for ground targets?"

  

  Old Bai: "How much is it?"

  

  Wc really has mosquitoes: "80 silver!"

  

   Yeshi: "Hey, yours is more expensive than the iron fist in the npc store, why don't I buy an iron fist, as soon as I send it, even the cracked claw crab can be fried. (Funny

  

  Wc really has mosquitoes: "Gan! This is already a cost price!"

  

   Fang Chang: "Brother, think of a way to reduce costs, or it will always be a dream if the two words are not practical. By the way, the number of players is up, and it's time to expand the scale of production."

  

  Wc really has mosquitoes: "The brain hurts! I'll think of a way!"

  

Lao Bai: "Let me tell me not to laboriously set up anti-aircraft rocket launchers, let alone guidance, even the proximity fuze is not adjusted, you guard a ball. It is better to get the spg-9 recoilless gun out, the air defense effect is not good. It’s like your jab is more reliable. (Squinting eyes

  

   Ye Ten: "+1, give me an elevation angle, I can even get off the plane with the main gun of the tank. (Funny

  

  Wc really has mosquitoes: "Tell the calf! When playing the battlefield!"

  

  Chu Guang actually didn't quite understand the violent aesthetics in the mosquito's mind.

  

   This guy is actually very capable. At least half of the credit for the outpost's ability to get out chemical products, as well as explosives such as nitrocellulose and ton so quickly.

  

However……

  

   The weapons made by this guy always have a strange style of painting, and there are only a handful of them with strong practicality.

  

  Although this is not necessarily a bad thing, Chu Guang felt that he wanted to fill the gap in the air defense weapons of the outpost, 80% of which he couldn't count on.

  

   In another post that is slightly less popular than the mosquito man, [Yaer, I want to go to the toilet cable] and [Ward Abercrombie and Levine] two people are having technical exchanges with some special tortured cloud players.

  

Brother Shuo: "It is still a bit difficult to imitate the 88 gun. Although the design drawings and videos can be searched, and the parts can be cut out with the black technology of the refuge, many problems cannot be solved. Especially the gun barrel, I want To increase the muzzle velocity of a shell, it is necessary to increase the charge so that the barrel can withstand greater chamber pressure!"

  

  Brother Levine: "That's right, and the research and development of new equipment is really expensive! 500 silver coins are not enough even the cost of research and development, at least another 0 has to be added!"

  

   High R&D costs are indeed a problem.

  

   Chu Guang stared at the computer screen for a moment~www.wuxiamtl.com~ cut to the desktop and opened the budget form.

  

   "For the R&D of large equipment with higher production thresholds and higher expenditures, it is not appropriate to let players bear the R&D costs completely."

  

   Chu Guang thought for a while, and got an idea in his mind.

  

   He intends to set up a special fund to support the research and development of new equipment. As long as they pass the review, they can get financial support.

  

  As for the anti-aircraft weapon project of the 81st Steel Plant...

  

   Chu Guang thought for a moment and made a decision.

  

   "The budget of 5000 silver coins seems too deliberate, so I changed it to...5500 silver coins. If the follow-up is not enough, it can be increased."

  

   "The original mission remains unchanged, and the new mission is re-released in the form of a ‘exclusive order’."

  

   As for the mosquitoes...

  

   Let him figure it out for a while.

  

   If Brother Mosquito can come up with a reliable design plan, of course Chu Guang will support him with a research and development budget.

  

   Only so far, Chu Guang hasn't understood for the time being, what exactly he intends to make...
