This Game is Too Real

Chapter 27: Winter is coming!

   "The leaves are turning yellow, the temperature is dropping, and an unprecedented crisis is approaching."

   "This winter will be harsher than in previous years, and it will come earlier... There is not much time left for us to prepare."

   "From now on, we must seize every minute, even every second! Before the situation is completely bad, prepare for the cold wave!"

   "The task panel has been updated, with a list of necessities, facilities to be completed, and corresponding rewards."

   "Remember, only through unity can we overcome difficulties together!"

   "Winter is coming."

   "This is the test of destiny for all of us!"

   In the residents hall of the refuge, inspiring voices echoed.

   In response to the high spirits of the players, Chu Guang delivered an impassioned speech and officially opened the prologue of the first expansion since the game’s closed beta—"Winter is Coming".

   With the opening of a new chapter, the atmosphere of the outpost of Vault 404 is the same as the game's official website, and it has begun to become different.

   is not just the players.

   Even Chu Guang himself could feel the slightest sense of urgency in the gradually cold air.

   The material reserves in the outposts were originally not enough, but the population soared from 6 to 30, a full five-fold increase!

   The surge in population has brought more labor, but it has also doubled the supply pressure on outposts.

In order to feed the thirty mouths that are coming, Chu Guang also broke his heart for the past two days. Almost every day, from morning to night, Ye Shi, who carries the gene sequence of the sensory system, hunted around outside, just to stock up. A little ration.

   For a while, the entire Linghu Wetland Park was stunned by them.

   But it is quite right, and the results are quite gratifying.

   In three days, Chu Guang killed more than ten mutant hyenas alone, and the hares and squirrels caught by traps were countless.

   Although they are all mutants, they are still edible.

   In addition, Ye Shi, who was in charge of alerting and scouting the enemy, also successfully advanced from LV0 to LV1, and Chu Guang also faintly felt that he was close to the edge of a breakthrough.

   It’s just that the manager’s genetic sequence is too special.

   Chu Guang hasn't figured out the secret of the upgrade yet, so he can only use the medical examination equipment to confirm that the development progress of the gene sequence does have a very small increase.

   On the other side, the performance of other players is also very good, and it can even be described as having their own supernatural powers.

Lao Bai and Fangchang used charcoal as a reducing agent. Through calcination, a small amount of iron **** was recovered from rusty steel bars, auto parts and other iron-containing wastes. Limestone and clay are mixed and calcined to make more reliable cement clinker.

   This is a physical activity.

   Whether it is manually operating the blower or using a repaired two-wheeled trolley to transport stones, it takes a lot of effort.

   But precisely because of this, Lao Bai of the power system was promoted again, his gene sequence was upgraded from LV1 to LV2, and his power attribute also increased by one point.

   As for Fang Chang, who was on shift with him, he finally broke through the line and advanced from LV0 to LV1.

   However, his growth attribute is not strength, but agility.

   It seems that although the development of gene sequences fits the law of "use advancement and abolishment retreat", the growth of attributes is another matter.

   Speaking of upgrading, the most sad thing is probably the wind.

   As of now, among the four closed beta players, he is probably the only one whose genetic sequence level is still 0.

   These days, he has used the improved trap to catch a lot of fish, but the distance from LV1 is always a little bit "experience".

   The "experience value" obtained by trapping and killing alien species does not seem to be as much as that obtained by killing alien species in frontal combat.

   was also puzzled by the strong wind.

   But helplessly, there seems to be no good solution so far.

   In addition to the four dog management who experienced the game first, the two newly added Mengxins are also very motivated, and they have not been idle for almost a moment these days.

   For example, "WC really has mosquitoes".

   This guy is not in a hurry to upgrade, he is still doing carpentry work, occasionally helping Lao Bai and Fang Chang, or helping Gale to repair damaged traps.

   In addition to these tasks, he is busy with his own affairs.

  According to Mosquito’s own statement, it seems that he intends to build a simple cabin with wood to serve as his chemical laboratory and warehouse.

   These days, while helping to carry the stones from the construction site, he picked up a lot of bottles and cans and returned them and placed them next to the cabin.

  Although Chu Guang doubted the safety of this kind of cabin, seeing how this guy was enjoying it, he felt that it would be better not to interfere too much with the players' choices.

   Compared with Mosquito brother's leisurely life, "Tomato scrambled eggs" is probably a model among the liver emperors.

   As the chef at the outpost, he is not only responsible for cooking, but also for the manager to deal with the prey.

   This includes bleeding, peeling, deboning, cutting meat, and most importantly, smoking.

  Since the salt at the outpost is not luxurious enough to be used for bacon, the scrambled egg brother uses the most primitive method of smoking.

   That is, nothing is released.

   He hung the cut meat directly on a steel frame, stuffed it into a cave made of clay and adobe, smoked with charcoal fire, roasted slowly on a low fire, dried the moisture in the meat, and sealed the hole with pine branches and leaves.

  The bacon made by this method is actually more like air-dried meat. It can be stored for a period of time even without salt, and there is no need to fancy tobacco leaves on the surface.

  Wait until the beginning or the middle of next month, it's almost time for winter.

   When the time comes, wrap these jerky in plastic bags or tree bark, and throw them directly in the snow to bury them. It shouldn’t be a big problem to eat them until the beginning of spring next year.

   is just relative. The taste and flavor of the bacon made by this method can only be said to be indescribable.

   In addition, the scrambled eggs did not waste the skins peeled from the mutant hyenas, but collected them to make leather.

   In fact, tanning is a very complicated and tedious process, which is far more troublesome than making jerky.

   However, what the refuge currently needs is not the kind of smooth and smooth high-end furs, but only warm materials that can keep out the cold, and there is no requirement for quality.

   Therefore, many unnecessary processes can be omitted.

   When Lao Bai was burning the plant ash, the filtered potash water was stored in the plastic bucket he picked up.

   "Tomato scrambled eggs" uses all the potash water as a tanning liquid for tanning leather, which is used to soak the raw hides peeled from the prey and washed.

   Wait until the leather and tanning are fully combined, then hang it on a simple tanning rack to dry, so that you can get a piece of leather with a good quality.

   "...Dear Manager, I must report to you that I am really too busy here. I really need help, even one!"

   took the prey that had just been shot from Chu Guang's hand, and the scrambled egg's sight floated to Ye Shi's body unconsciously.

   He always feels that this guy seems to be very idle. Apart from helping the manager take a prey, he doesn't seem to see this guy doing anything else.

   is not as good as...

   Come and help yourself.

   Eleven at night, he could tell what this guy was thinking, UU reading www.uukanshu.com quickly waved his hand and said.

   "Don't look at me, I'm very busy."

joke.

   Follow the NPC to level up, where can I find this kind of good experience for nothing?

   He doesn't want to learn how to cook with this guy!

   Seeing Ye Shi's resistance, the scrambled egg couldn't help rolling his eyes, and said something in his heart.

   Are you busy with a hammer!

   Looking at the scrambled eggs complaining to him, Chu Guang said to calm down.

"Ye Shi needs to help me search for prey, and his perception of danger is also very important, so I can't let him stay to help you. But I promise you that your problem will be solved soon. Our reinforcements have been On the way, they will soon reach the surface."

   "Well, thank you... If that's the case, that would be great."

   scrambled eggs sighed, paused for a moment, and continued.

   "There is another thing. Although I tried tanning, I can only do some simple processing. As for how to make them into clothes... I really can't help it."

   Chu Guang said with a smile.

   "Don't worry about this. There are talents who are good at this in the upcoming reinforcements. I will leave the work of tanning and making warm clothes to that person."

   is not just a tailor.

   Among the 24 new beta players he selected, there are talents from all walks of life.

   Although they are not necessarily experts in the industry, and some are even students, they can still be used as much as they can.

   Besides, there is also a tool like the Internet.

   Chu Guang is full of confidence in these vigorous and energetic players. As long as they work hard enough, one day they can move into a big house.

   A stable batch!
