This Game is Too Real

Chapter 555: taste of blood

   Vault 101...

   The last time I visited Dr. Method seems to have been a long time ago.

   Inexplicably felt a touch of nostalgia in his heart, Chu Guang said after thinking for a moment.

   "It's an indescribable place there."

  Alyssa was slightly stunned.

   "hard to describe means..."

   Seeing the longing and yearning in his eyes, Chu Guang probably guessed that Pai was bragging about something with her, so he thought for a moment and said.

   "Most of the other sanctuaries hold survivors, a certain technology, a certain plan...whereas they hold memories of a prosperous era."

  Alyssa's eyes brightened, and she couldn't help clenching her two small fists.

   "Prosperity Era!"

   That legendary great era!

   She has only seen a few words about that era in some books and picture books!

   Looking at the longing eyes, Chu Guang probably guessed what she was thinking. Although he couldn't bear it, he still poured cold water on her.

   "It's just a memory of the Prosperity Era, it may not be as beautiful as you think. The premise of entering Vault 101 is to give up the physical body, otherwise it can only be a brief glimpse like sitting in a sightseeing car."

   "Give up the physical body..."

   "It means to die physically."

  Alyssa held her breath involuntarily.

   After a long time, she said stiffly.

   "Sounds...like a tomb."

  Chu Guang nodded in agreement.

   "Indeed, there is no difference to the outsiders from the grave, but not necessarily to themselves."

   Chu Guang didn’t quite understand what Dr. Method said before, but after coming into contact with so many different styles of AI, he understood a little bit.

   For AI, there is not much difference between a second and a century. Of course they knew that Vault 101 was destined to fall asleep one day in the future. After all, it wasn't an unpredictable ending, but they didn't really care.

   Even the sun has a lifespan.

   Not to mention the bubble that a person or a period of civilization has transformed into?

   They have experienced a life that is better and longer than everyone else in that never-ending dream, and they have no memory of the outside world.

   From a personal point of view, even if it is virtual, there is nothing to regret, their task is to live according to their own ideas.

   For that sanctuary, the meaning of its existence is to record their memories, thoughts, relationships, lifestyles, etc. about that era, and leave it to the future as some kind of enlightenment.

  Chu Guang seldom told others that there is such a good place in the alliance, and it is not a good idea for the living to indulge in the kingdom of the dead.

   In a sense, it was a more poisonous poison than the ideal of the ideal city, and even he had the idea of ​​staying there.

  Although only for a moment…

  Alyssa was silent for a while.

   "Actually, I didn't think about living there, but sometimes I think... It would be nice to have a look at that era."

   may also feel that her thoughts are a little naive, she smiled embarrassedly, and continued in a low voice.

   "That way, we'll know where to go."

   It's not just her.

The    workers in the workers’ union also feel confused occasionally.

   They have overthrown those feudal landlords and gained a bright future, but no one can tell them where they will go in the future.

  Although everyone has reached a consensus to only do the present well, it is impossible not to think about the future at all.

   It would be nice to have a look at that era.

   She had fantasized about it more than once.

   saw the mystery in Alisha's eyes (this chapter is not over!)

   Chapter 554 The Taste of Blood

  Mang, Chu Guang thought for a moment.

   "I think there may not be the answer there, and we may not be going to a certain era in the past, but some knowledge and experience there are indeed worth referring to."

   "So I communicated with the managers of Vault 101 that they intend to build a university from the camp they reserved on the surface."

  Alyssa looked at him blankly.

"…the University?"

  Chu Guang nodded.

   "Well, you can understand it, it's a school. But unlike other full-time schools in the league, people aren't just learning what we already know, but also exploring the future and the past."

   Seeing that the blank eyes gradually turned into a look of vague understanding, Chu Guang continued in a gentle tone.

"It's normal for you to feel lost. You are at the most curious age in your life, and you have the courage to pursue your ideals desperately, but these are not enough. You also need to see more and understand the world. , understand the natural sciences, and then summarize the experience and methods to find the answer...In the process of this exploration, you will naturally know where you are going."

The   calendar was born in the field, not imaginary lying on a straw mat. At least in his opinion, the process of exploration is more important than the answer.

  Alyssa lowered her head.

   After a while, she seemed to have made up her mind, nodded her chin, and raised her head again to look at Chu Guang.

   "That little fish... It was only after studying in the school built in Vault 101 that he became so good, right?"

   "I want to go there too if I can!"

   She needed a week or two to work overtime to complete the work. The little girl who was about her age completed it in only three days, and she meticulously pointed out the things she didn't do well.

   This also counts the time to understand what the job is about.

   This is unbelievable to Alicia.

   But after seeing those magical mathematical tools and methods, all the disbelief became convinced.

   That is knowledge that will never be understood in a lifetime of living in a boulder city.

   She hopes to learn that knowledge back and help everyone here.

   Maybe as the manager said.

   In the process, you may find your future path slowly.

   "Xiaoyu... She is a special case. She happens to be good at mathematics, but she really grew up after studying at Camp 101."

   Looking at those eyes that rekindled anticipation and longing, Chu Guang said seriously.

   "As for studying at Camp 101, you should discuss it with your father."

   "I've actually asked my father. My father said that I'm already an adult with an opinion. Let me think about things for myself in the future. If I don't understand, I'll ask you... He won't give me any more life advice."

   When she said this, Alyssa secretly glanced at him a little embarrassedly and continued in a low voice.

   "...When I'm in doubt, can I ask you for advice?"

  Although he didn't think he could be of any help, looking at the anticipation in his eyes, Chu Guang couldn't say those inhumane words.

   "Yes, but all I can give you is my advice. In the end, it is up to you to decide how to choose."

   Those eyes full of anticipation burst into a smile in an instant.

   nodded vigorously, and Alicia said happily.

   "Hmm! Thank you!"

   Looking at this polite little girl, Chu Guang said with a smile.

"You're welcome."

  Thinking about tomorrow, he picked up a document from the table.

   "Just as you are here, I might have to trouble you for a favor—"

   "No problem! Please leave it to me!"

   Looking at the energetic Eliza, Chu Guang smiled (this chapter is not over!)

   Chapter 554 The Taste of Blood

   smiled and handed her the document in his hand.

   took over the document, and Aliza flipped through it roughly.

"This is?"

“For New Year’s Eve, every year we vote for the most popular recipes. It’s… a tradition in our sanctuary. To facilitate communication between sanctuary residents and survivors outside the sanctuary, the addition of the 'Wastelanders Favorites' last year began last year. 'Gourmet' rating option, so several judges are needed."

  This year's judges are selected by voting on the official website, and each settlement will select several judges, who will be voted by players who are active in the local area.

   Afraid that this guy would swell, Chu Guang was embarrassed to say that her popularity in voting on the official website forum was relatively high.

   But Alyssa didn't ask him why he let himself be a judge, he just thought it was out of trust. After understanding the content of the event, her eyes suddenly lit up.

   "Yeah! I'll be hungry all day in advance to make room for my stomach!"

   Facing the look of "seeing death as home", Chu Guang coughed softly.

   "You don't have to work **** this..."

  …

   It wasn't just Eliza who was chosen to be a judge for the New Year's Eve event, someone who seemed to be getting more votes than her.

   And it's a lot higher!

  A single house on the edge of Ling Lake.

   Dolly, who just got home from get off work, had a surprised expression on her face after hearing Fang Chang's explanation.

   "Huh? Let me be a judge?"

   "Well... Of course, this is just an invitation. If you're not interested, you can turn it down."

   After telling Dolly the whole thing about the New Year's Eve event, Fang Chang's expression was slightly embarrassed.

  This year's New Year's Eve event was chosen by the players themselves as judges. He never thought that his good brothers would vote for his wife one by one.

   Anyone who knows him knows that he is a person who does not like to show affection.

   Rather than showing off everywhere, he prefers to live his own two-person world quietly, but he can't stand a group of bad friends asking about his private life every day.

   These dog things.

   Interested in other people's wives all day long!

   So curious, find one for yourself!

   "Oh hoo hoo... Such an interesting thing, how could the Miss reporter from Survivor Daily miss it!"

   hung the handbag on the hanger by the door, Dolly had a narrow smile on her face, and poked her long arm with her index finger.

   "Dear Mr. Fang Chang, will you not let me go alone?"

   Seeing that she didn't seem to have any intention of rejecting her resignation, but instead looked excited, Fang Chang said with a helpless expression.

   "...Of course, how can I be assured that my dear Miss Reporter will go so far alone."

   Seeing the shy look on the bad guy's face, which is rarely seen, Dolly raised the corners of her lips smugly, her heart as sweet as honey.

   Suddenly remembered what she had heard from her colleagues in the past few days, she said with some emotion.

   "But then again, it seems that a lot of things have happened in Boulder City recently."

  Whether it is inside the giant wall or outside the giant wall.

The    Alliance actually sent troops to take over the entire gang in the slum, which she, a reporter, never expected.

   Fang Chang nodded.

   "Well, a lot of things really happened. Although it's still called Boulder City, it's probably completely different from the Boulder City you're familiar with."

   "Just go back and have a look!" Dolly couldn't help but look forward to her eyes.

  The inner city has completely disappeared. @ Essence\/Book House j·h·s·s·d·c·o·m first update~~

   What will happen there?

   Looking at the twinkling light in those eyes, Fang Chang could feel the emotion in her heart, and reached out to touch the fluffy emerald green hair.

"Um."

   "Wait back, let's go shopping together."

  …

  Boulder City.

   (This chapter is not over!)

   Chapter 554 The Taste of Blood

  A certain kitchen in the Union Army station, looking at the long table with the plates filled with indescribable things, Feng Qing said with a guilty conscience.

   "So you still failed?"

   After she went back that day, the market was blocked, and she ran to Dawn City again, but she still didn't buy the items on the list.

  Although Mosquito didn't blame her, she was still very embarrassed and stayed in Dawn City until today before returning to Boulder City.

   Immediately after, she received a new task to vacate the kitchen rented by the Goblin Corps.

   Her best friend, Guigui, also received the mission with her.

   I don’t know why, but the reward for this apparently simple errand task is as high as 200 silver coins! And added a risk tag.

   But she didn't panic at all.

   Just move things out of the kitchen, which is much safer than a test flight of a new model!

   She followed without hesitation.

   Guigui, who was standing beside him, spread his hands helplessly.

   "There is no way, because we didn't buy those spices, we can only use other things instead."

"sorry!"

   Seeing Fengqing bowing his head to apologize, Guigui quickly comforted her.

   "Ah, no need to apologize, I think you reduced our losses by not buying it. As I said earlier, it's definitely not going to work with myriads!"

   Fengqing said hesitantly.

   "But... what about the New Year's Eve event?"

  GuiGui scratched the back of his head.

   "Let's think about other ways. It's really not possible. It's okay to just mix it up with anything. Anyway, as long as you participate, there will be a mysterious gift."

  The wind breathed a sigh of relief.

   Cooking is not something that professional combat players like them are good at, especially since she doesn’t know anything about cooking.

   As soon as he came up, he challenged the difficult ingredients of the multi-legged beast, and it was still a bit too strong.

   His eyes fell on the supplies piled up in the corner of the kitchen, looking at the pile of black lumps, the wind was clear.

   asked curiously.

   "What are those? Are they eaten too?"

   said that, she walked over, reached out and picked up a piece.

   As soon as she was about to take a sip, the ghost next to her saw this, and quickly stopped her.

   "Wait! That can't be eaten, that's charcoal!"

   Fengqing was stunned.

   "Wood, charcoal?"

   "Yeah! At first, the captain planned to use charcoal grilling. Someone told him that the aroma released by burning wood could also cover up the stench of some food, but then it failed."

   From Gui Gui's expression, he could probably make up the situation at that time, and Feng Qing looked at another sack full of yellow lumps.

   "Then... what about those?"

   Yolk?

   Looking in her direction, Gui Gui said quickly.

   "Ah, there's sulfur over there, and there's saltpeter next to it."

   silently put down the sulphur in his hand, Fengqing gave Guigui a subtle look.

   "I said... is he really planning to cook?"

   "Uh, maybe?"

The    expression also subtly looked away, and Guigui, who was quite sure, suddenly couldn't make up his mind, "Anyway, luck in luck... He probably gave up."

   She thinks this is a good thing.

   The things that Lao Na made are strange at most, but the things made by the boss of Mosquito are to the extent that they will send people away, and then they will be locked in a small dark room.

   But it is rare that he is so interested in food.

  Fengqing looked at the white crystals in the barrel.

   "What about those?"

   "Ah, those are white sugar! Mosquito Boss' last attempt! He was going to cover up the smell of meat with sweetness, but in the end everyone went to the toilet."

   is another memory that I don’t want to remember, the face of Guigui (this chapter is not over!)

   Chapter 554 The Taste of Blood

   raised a regretful expression.

   But this bucket of white sugar is probably the only thing in the whole kitchen that can be put directly into your mouth.

  Looking blankly at the bucket of white sugar, Feng Qing said with a heartache.

   "It's a shame to waste so much sugar."

   "Really?" Gui Gui sighed, raised his arms and said, "I wanted to complain for a long time, that guy is just wasting food."

   Use spices to cover up the smell of the multipod.

   I'm afraid the spices used are more expensive than meat!

   Staring at the bucket of white sugar for a long time, Feng Qing's eyes suddenly lit up.

   "Why not... let's just use these sugars to make some simple meals!"

  GuiGui was stunned.

   "Just use white sugar? Then... what can I do?"

candy?

   It seems that the taste is also a little monotonous.

   Looking at the confused girlfriend, the corners of her mouth cocked up proudly.

"Marshmallow!"

  Although she has never done it, I heard that the principle is very simple.

   As long as the sugar is heated and melted into syrup, the heating chamber is continuously rotated, and the syrup is ejected from the small holes under the action of centrifugal force, and it can solidify into sweet candy in the air.

   Hearing these three words, Guigui's eyes suddenly lit up.

   "What a great idea! It's much better than the Myringbone Stew!"

   "Uh...that's some weird food."

   "The inspiration came from snail powder... In short, it's settled! I'll go to the mosquito boss and let him get a cotton candy machine!"

   The more I think about it, the more I think this is a great idea, and Gui Gui clenched his fists excitedly.

  Mosquito boss should be moved to cry!

   His hands-on ability is finally useful in normal places!

   Cheers bro! @ Essence\/Book House j·h·s·s·d·c·o·m No mistake starting~~

   Seeing that his suggestion seemed to be of great use, Feng Qing smiled embarrassedly.

   "Hey, I want to make more, and by the way, I'll send some to Citrus and the others."

"Tangerine?"

"Well! A very cute child, very good, and very sensible! I promised her, I will visit her when I have time," Fengqing said with shining eyes looking at Guigui, who tilted his head, " I'll introduce it to you tomorrow!"

   "Hmm! Looking forward to it!"

  The two of them worked together to move out the most dangerous sacks and barrels first.

   Soon there were only some glassware like beakers, Erlenmeyer flasks, and some bottles and jars on the shelf.

   took a glass bottle from the shelf, Fengqing opened the bottle cap and sniffed, frowning.

   "The smell of kerosene."

  Why use kerosene for cooking?

   In addition to kerosene, there are some white particles the size of fingernails in the glass bottle.

  Whether there were any markings on the bottle, and she couldn't make up her mind what was in it.

   "Do you still want these things? If you don't want them, I'll pour them out." Shaking the glass bottle in his hand lightly, Feng Qing called out to Gui Gui who was busy packing up not far away.

   "Ah, it's all down," Guigui said casually without looking back, "Mosquito said that the ingredients in the kitchen are no longer needed, let's dispose of them by the way when we empty the kitchen."

   "This idiot commander is too wasteful."

  Fengqing shook his head, unscrewed the bottle cap, poured the contents of the bottle into the sink, and turned on the faucet to flush them away.

   However, almost the moment she turned on the faucet, the pool of pale yellow liquid suddenly burst into flames with a squeak.

   Thanks to the agility-type reflex nerves developed enough.

   Seeing that the situation was not right, she lowered her body a little, and the fragments set off by the explosion almost rubbed the top of her head and flew out.

"what happened?!"

   Seeing the bottle rolling on the ground, Gui Gui's face changed instantly, and he said in shock (this chapter is not over!)

   Chapter 554 The Taste of Blood

   "Sodium! Oops... I forgot!"

  The explosion ignited the kerosene without any suspense, and the flames splashed from the pool ignited the shelves with bottles and jars not far away.

  Under the action of high temperature, some bottles and jars began to undergo wonderful changes.

   Looking at the shelf that started to have a chain reaction, Feng Qing swallowed and instinctively took a step back.

"That…?"

   "It's that sodium! Metal sodium!"

   "??? What is he doing with that thing in the kitchen?!"

   "Ghost knows ah ah ah!"

   From the explosion of the first glass bottle, what happens next seems to be doomed.

   There was a violent explosion in the originally calm station, and the fire and smoke came out of the kitchen window.

   Fortunately, the power is not particularly strong, and it did not blow up the house.

  Thinking that they were revenge by gang members, the barracks immediately sounded the alarm, and a large number of heavily armed soldiers rushed over.

   Finally found out that it was a false alarm.

   After learning that it was the goblin corps, the logistics officer didn't ask any more questions, but asked his subordinates to send a ticket to a certain corps commander with a dark face.

   This is not the first time.

   Looking at the string of dazzling zeros, Mosquito signed the ticket with tears in his eyes.

   But fortunately, people are fine.

  Those things like charcoal and white sugar have been moved out ahead of time, and the two little players who were affected by the explosion were only slightly injured.

  If you travel for three days for this trivial matter and miss the New Year's Eve event, then you will lose a lot...

  [Task: Evacuate the kitchen used by the goblin army (failure)]

   The commotion at the player's residence was just a small episode. Most of the food prepared by the players was of a relatively normal type. After all, there were only a few ruthless people who risked their lives to develop new recipes.

  Except for chefs like scrambled eggs with tomatoes in reality, most people don’t expect to be able to come out on top by relying on their swordsmanship.

   This kind of festival activity is also very lively. Although there are a lot of materials to form a team, but everyone still participates with the mentality of playing.

  Because of the active players, Boulder City, which has been deserted for more than half a month, has finally recovered because of the approach of the festival - some of the bustle of the past.

   That's it, it's finally New Year's Eve. @ Essence\/Book Pavilion...Update the fastest!

  The decorated street was full of lights, survivors took to the streets one after another, and many shops that had been closed for more than half a month reopened their doors.

   Since last week, the construction team has begun to settle some wages according to the league minimum wage standard, and the factory has started to pay wages in silver coins earlier.

   Commodities have "grown" out from the shelves again. Although people's wallets are not bulging, they can already buy some things.

  Everything is getting better.

  The night sky is lit up with colorful fireworks.

   Not only the Heart of Steel stopped at Dawn City, but even the anti-aircraft guns on the giant wall began to release fireworks into the sky.

  In front of the floor-to-ceiling windows of the Boulder Military Industrial Building, looking at the colorful flames in the night sky, Ebers smiled and clapped his palm.

   "Not bad... It's rare for me to watch an ingenious good show."

   In the name of hunting aliens, he quietly cleaned up the looter tribes around Boulder City, and then resolutely wiped out the gangs in the slums.

   So far, the new shareholder has performed beyond his expectations, and he has not been so surprised by an organism in a long time.

   Originally, he thought that the chaos of Boulder City would make Qingquan City turbulent for at least five or six years, but now it seems that this good show has completely ended in just one month.

   The time bomb buried in the giant wall seemed to be silently defused without even starting the countdown.

   Now the rectification of the slums has been completed, and most of the factories in the city have resumed production. (This chapter is not over!)

   Chapter 554 The Taste of Blood

   It may not be long before the state of emergency is lifted.

   Maybe this celebration is the opportunity.

   But Ebers was not disappointed, but even more excited.

   Beneath that peace and tranquility, he could faintly smell the smell of blood...
