This Game Is Too Realistic

Early the next morning.

In the Tailor Shop, Teng Teng, who had just started work, peeled off a piece of paper from the wooden board.

"Mission… Make a dress for the Weapon Shop Owner, reward 5 to 10 silver coins?" After seeing the order, Teng Teng’s eyes gradually lit up.

In just one second, a set of perfect designs formed in her mind.

"Okay, leave it to me!" Shoving the note into her pocket, she immediately walked towards the Weapon Shop in high spirits.

Meanwhile, inside the shelter.

Chu Guang was standing in the resident hall, facing twenty new players who had just crawled out of the nurturing cabins, and reading his lines he spent a huge effort to compile.

Perhaps the wait was just too long, or maybe they had one more female player than last time, this batch of newcomers was far more honest than the previous batch of players. At least, no one did anything that would make people want to bleach their eyes...

It seemed that a series of operations such as gradually increasing the threshold of application, appropriate hunger marketing, increasing the cost of waiting time, screening high-quality players, and so on were somewhat useful.

Of course, it may also be because the game was too realistic and players couldn’t get a second account to it. They thought that the developers might be secretly watching their in game behavior and decided to be obedient.

After Little Seven explained the gameplay to those new players, Chu Guang took them to the elevator leading to the surface and drove them out of the shelter like driving a flock of ducks out of a cage.

Standing on the ground in front of the nursing home, those newbies felt the immersive shock for the first time.

"Holy shit, holy shit!"

"This… This is Wasteland Online?!"

"The sunlight on my face feels exactly like the real world, and the wind is kissing my cheek. It’s like a dream here! No, it’s a dream!"

"The technology of this game is too advanced!"

"Holy shit. This game is already this great, but they still don’t want to release it? What the heck is the company thinking?"

"This is fucking awesome!"

The reactions of all new players just entering the game seemed to be the same.

Chu Guang understood their state of mind.

From the moment they received the helmet, the seemingly interesting online joke turned into something that could really exist. After counting down the most difficult 72 hours while tossing and turning, their expectations turned to reality when they opened their eyes after putting on the helmet.

It felt like they were born again.

The impact could easily be described in two words… “Fucking awesome!”

Stepping on the soil in the exotic world, sniffing the fragrance of the dust, chasing the butterflies in the grass, embarking on an adventure with an unknown future... How many gamers dreamt of something like that?

Let alone the players, Chu Guang himself has had such a daydream more than once, hoping that one day he would be able to step into a real virtual world! РαꞐỌΒЁ𝘚

It was a pity...

Knowing that it was his real life, he was destined to not be able to enjoy the game like the players. The untouchable reality was their virtual world.

"Go forth."

"Change this declining world!"

"With your own hands!"

With emotion in his heart, Chu Guang added three more lines to his script.

He did not stay there. Instead, he gave the time to the players. He brought Little Seven to the third floor, and placed it in front of the window with the best view… It was truly the first class seat for looking over the players.

In the open space in front of the nursing home…

Before the newcomers, who had just stepped into the game world, had time to breathe the air on the wasteland, they were surrounded by the old players who had arrived earlier.

"Are there any brothers with special talents? Please raise your hand… What? You do? What kind of talent do you have? What the hell is Calm and Collected? Why does it sound so useless?"

"Is there any newbie of the strength type? Let’s level up the attributes together! It will be fun!"

"Boss, I am a strength type, how should I play this game?"

Seeing that there were newbies finally responding to him, the old player was overjoyed. "Are you a strength type? What’s your name?"

"Construction Boy."

"Damn, brother, it looks like you’ve already figured out what this game is all about! Listen to me, strength type players have to chop more trees and move more bricks in order to grow stronger. Just roll up your sleeves and do it. Once you cut down a hundred trees, you will go straight to LV1! 7~ 8 points of strength will make you invincible in the wasteland, and when you meet mutants, you can kill them with an axe!"

"Then, what if you run into someone with a gun?"

"Just do it!"

"???"

Standing in front of the windows on the third floor of the nursing home, Chu Guang looked down and observed the players for a while.

Seeing that the newcomers were gradually learning the ropes from the old players, he nodded in satisfaction.

Very good.

Very reliable.

Those closed alpha players really did not disappoint him.

The only thing that made Chu Guang feel a little bit of pity was that although this group of newcomers was very obedient, there didn’t seem to be an easter egg left by the first administrator.

However, there were two special talents that interested him.

One was Calm and Collected, which increased the basic resistance to negative mental states such as fear and despair by 50%, and allowed the user to remove the negative effects from one’s mental state more quickly.

On the surface, the talent seemed useless. Only those who experienced actual combat know how important that quality was in combat.

Another talent was Thermal Vision. The player with this talent was called Elf_Fugui_Wang, Elf Wang, an agility type player.

Just looking at the description of the talent, it was simply an incredible talent for night battle! In a focused state, if the talent was actively triggered, the user’s retina would be more sensitive to infrared light.

The specific performance was that the heat source in the dark could be seen within a certain range!

Of course, his talent was basically useless when used to detect cold-blooded animals.

Chu Guang silently noted down Elf Wang’s name. If there was a need for night battles in the future, that would be the guy he chose.

In addition, there were several strange talents.

For example, Temperature Intuition can allow one to sense the temperature of the heat source without contact, Plant Whisperer allows one to see the growth state of plants, Insect Hunter will let one smell the pheromone released by insects, and so on.

Those talents were of little practical significance but if they were used in production and exploration, they could still play a role.

Chu Guang believed that there should be no need for him to explain the talent to the players and they could delve into the most suitable gameplay by themselves.

...

In the apartment area in the north of Wetland Park.

A team of four was carefully approaching the prey.

The terrain in the city was very complicated. From the ruins of the ruined tower greenhouse, it could be seen that people in the pre-war society should have lived a very comfortable life.

Gale mumbled, “People in the pre-war era really knew how to enjoy themselves... The residents living in the community actually planted fruits and vegetables inside the residential tower. It’s not just a vegetable field, but it’s a massive garden!”

Old White asked, “But who maintains it?”

“The people who managed the properties probably, and they could also be outsourced to specialized companies. This kind of ecological community is quite interesting. The designer who designed this game is really a genius.” Gale gave a very high evaluation. This design was quite interesting.

"You better focus on our prey, I feel we are very close to it."

Night Ten focused his five senses and from the flowing scent, he seemed to have heard the heartbeat of the prey. There was one stronger one and a weaker one…

Wait, two?

"Ahead of us."

Ample Time had already spotted the reindeer that fell to the ground with an arrow stuck in its body, but when he was about to move forward, he suddenly found another arrow stuck in the neck of the prey.

Another arrow?

He was stunned.

Just then, he met the gaze of the young man standing on the other side.

Both sides were taken aback for a moment, and the next second, they drew their bows and aimed at each other.

"Who are you?!"

"NPC?"

The two shouted for some time, but they couldn’t understand what the other was saying.

Gale and Old White reacted quickly. After discovering what was going on, they quickly flanked from the sides and walked around the young man.

The young man moved back nervously, leaning against the concrete wall, preventing his back from being exposed.

Ample Time could feel the murderous aura emanating from the cold arrow tip, but he was not afraid and approached step by step.

After all, he would miss the shot if he was far away.

"Don’t come here."

"Drop your weapons, you are surrounded."

What is this person talking about?

Are they marauders?!

Watching the three approaching him and thinking of how the people caught by the marauder died, the young man gritted his teeth, made up his mind, and let go of the bowstring.

Whoosh!

The arrow swished through the air.

Ample Time subconsciously turned sideways, narrowly avoiding the arrow that flew past his cheeks, the feathers almost scratching the tip of his nose.

If he didn’t dodge it, he would be sent straight back to the fountain! [1]

"Get him!" Ample Time threw away the bow immediately, pulled out the steel bar and rushed towards the young man with Old White and Gale.

The young man drew the short knife from his waist, his expression one of determination, ready to fight to the death.

The next moment, a pebble flew across the air and struck the young man in the forehead, knocking him into a trance.

"Now!" Night Ten yelled while holding his slingshot and the three got even closer. They knocked away his knife with a stick before pushing him to the ground.

"Quick!"

The young man roared and struggled as hard as he could but it was Old White who caught him in the end.

The strength of the tech macho is no joke.

"Stop struggling! Damn it, this guy is quite strong! Ample Time, what are we doing now?" Looking at the young man struggling on the ground, Old White asked Ample Time who was next to him after tying the young man up.

In Wasteland Online, killing NPCs or monsters would not give experience points. The genetic sequence was increased during battle or exercise.

The experience of capturing and killing was the same...

Gale checked the young man’s pack and found that apart from a pie, there were only a few arrows and an exquisitely crafted knife.

Shaking his head, he stood up and said, "No loot drop."

Looking at the young man who was lying on the ground glaring at him, Ample Time was lost in thought.

"I don’t know what he is saying."

"Anyway, tie him up first and take him back to exchange him for money."
