Chapter 129 LV10! The second phase of the sequence!

night.

  Chu Guang had a nightmare.

  In the dream, he was covered with fluff and turned into a bear. In order to avoid being chased by hunters, he ran desperately in the forest. Along the way, he tore a creeper with his claws, killed a split-claw crab with one slap, and finally sent a real bear flying with his fist...

  Wait, I even overturned the split-claw crab, why should I be chased by the hunter?

   At this moment, Chu Guang woke up from his dream.

  The first thing after waking up, Chu Guang felt his whole body all over, and found that he had no other changes except that he was covered in hot sweat.

  Chu Guang heaved a sigh of relief.

so close!

  Holding the bed with both hands, Chu Guang was about to sit up from the bed, but he couldn't control his strength well, and one of them jumped under the bed with too much force.

  Inertically, he took two steps forward before standing still. Before Chu Guang realized what happened, his bones cracked again with the movement of his limbs.

  After doing some exercise, every cell in the whole body feels more comfortable than ever, as if every pore is breathing.

   Not only that, Chu Guang felt that his brain was more awake than ever, and his vision was unprecedentedly clear. It didn't look like he had just woken up, but rather like drinking a few bottles of taurine.

   What shocked Chu Guang in particular was that standing beside the bed, he could see the texture printed on the doorknob clearly!

   Immediately realized what was going on.

  Chu Guang didn't stay in the room for a moment, and ran to the residents' hall without saying a word, and used the physical examination equipment placed there to give himself a full-body examination.

   Not as he expected.

   This time I woke up and upgraded again!

second stage!

  All attributes increased by 5 points! ?

   "Fuck, this is so cool."

   You can upgrade while lying down!

  Looking at the medical examination results entered on the VM screen, Chu Guangle couldn't close his mouth.

   Sure enough, as he guessed, LV10 is a bottleneck. Once the development progress of the gene sequence breaks through this bottleneck, the strength will usher in a qualitative leap!

   "Add 5 to all attributes, and an extra talent... Is this the 'awakening' that the aborigines of the wasteland say?"

  Chu Guang still remembers that he first heard this word from Hai En from Honghe Town.

   And in the subsequent fight with "Xiong", the "Xiong" who was driven to a desperate situation appeared a phenomenon similar to "alienization". Not surprisingly, it should also be regarded as a situation of awakening.

  However, in Vault 404, it seems that this phenomenon is called the second stage of the genetic sequence.

  Different from the "bear" who awakened naturally, his appearance and traits did not change significantly due to the awakening.

  The only changes that can be felt are increased strength, quicker thinking, sharper perception of the surrounding environment, faster reaction speed, and stronger resilience and immunity.

  Chu Guang roughly speculated that the bonuses provided by the second stage of different sequences should be different, and the unlocking talents should also be different. For example, the strength system should focus more on strengthening the muscles, and the agility system should focus more on reflex nerves and the like.

   However, this is all just speculation.

  Currently, in the entire refuge, only I have reached the second stage. Among the other players, the cattle and horse team with the fastest leveling is no more than the peak of LV7.

  As for the other sequences, we will only know when they reach LV10.

  Anyway, Chu Guang is quite satisfied with the second stage of the "manager" sequence he holds.

  5 points of full attribute improvement, directly transforming into a pentagonal warrior in seconds. Coupled with the skill of "give the fear debuff", he feels that he is invincible!

  Footsteps came from the corridor on one side.

  Yawning, Xia Yan, who had just woken up, came out of the room with a cane under her arm.

  Looking at Chu Guang who was holding vm and giggling there, the sleepy-eyed she froze for a moment, and muttered in a low voice.

   "What good things are you looking at? You're laughing like this."

  The smile on his face quickly disappeared, Chu Guang raised his head abruptly, looked towards Xia Yan, and stared into her eyes.

   The two looked at each other.

   The air was quiet for a few seconds.

   His fair cheeks gradually turned crimson.

   "God, crazy."

  Xia Yan, who turned her head away, walked away with a cane.

  Watching the back figure twisting and turning towards the buffer room, Chu Guang touched his chin and thought for a moment, then suddenly looked at the wastebasket squatting in the corner for charging.

   "Xiao Qi."

  The signal light above his head turned on, and Xiao Qi raised the camera that was lying flat.

   "Yes, Master."

  Chu Guang then asked.

   "Is she frightened?"

  Xiao Qi seemed to be taken aback for a moment, and after a few seconds, she spoke weakly.

   "Although the target's blood pressure, heart rate, and heat dissipation have all increased slightly, Xiaoqi feels... that shouldn't be the effect you expected?"

  Chu Guang: "..."

All right.

  Maybe because the facial features are too handsome, it doesn't look so deterrent.

  This skill is somewhat tasteless for me.

  …

  Better Street.

  The square in front of the castle was crowded with people.

  The residents of Beit Street were called here early in the morning. Many of them had just woken up, with blank and curious faces on their faces.

  For the residents living here, many of them have never been here in their entire lives.

  The old mayor’s family hates the poor, so every time they get closer, they will be driven away by the patrolling guards nearby.

   But it’s different now, the old mayor’s family has been driven away.

  Although a new mayor has come to power, at least this new mayor is an old acquaintance they have dealt with, and he is much more cordial than the vampire who has never met.

   Facing the eyes of the two looking at him, old Charlie took out a signed and dated paper from his arms, cleared his throat, and said.

   "Starting today, the first code of law on Beit Street will come into effect! It will promise and protect the legal rights of all residents of Beit Street."

"The rule is very simple. Those who intentionally kill people will be sentenced to hanging, those who cause minor injuries in a fight will be sentenced to more than one year in prison and hard labor, and those who cause serious injuries in a fight will be sentenced to more than three years in prison and hard labor. In addition, stealing or malicious Those who destroy property will be punished with imprisonment, hard labor and whipping according to the amount involved..."

  Old Cha has about twenty ideas, but most people can understand, only a dozen or so.

  People in the square looked at each other.

   Codex?

   Many of them heard this weird word for the first time.

  Although there were guards on Beit Street before, the guards never dealt with the disputes of the residents. They were only responsible for the safety of the castle and the walls.

  In recent years, there have been no murders. Fights often occur, but no one was injured.

   After all, living these days is already very difficult, and no one wants to easily offend others. Even if it is not due to moral constraints, everyone will weigh the pros and cons of the consequences of disrupting order.

   As for stealing...

   By the way, is digging up the croissants at other people's door counted as stealing?

  What should I do with this thing?

  Looking at the residents looking at each other in blank dismay, Old Charlie knew what they were thinking, but he didn't explain anything.

   No need to explain.

  They can't understand things that are too difficult.

  Laws are meaningless just written on paper. After it has been strictly enforced once, someone will naturally weigh the consequences of breaking it.

   After a pause for a while, old Charlie continued to speak.

"Starting today, the official currency of Beit Street is set to be silver coins and copper coins. You can buy food, daily necessities, clothes and other materials at the grocery store operated by the street office. The original chips can still be used, but only for food. And salt. In addition, the remuneration for scavenging and hunting will no longer be paid with chips. The current exchange ratio between chips and silver coins is tentatively set. One chip can be exchanged for one silver coin. After one month, chips can only be exchanged for 5 copper coins."

  The voice fell, and there was a sound of discussion around.

   "The chips are not working?"

   "Why change to silver coins and copper coins..."

   "Exactly! I have never heard of the silver coins and copper coins."

   "Are you changing?"

   "I will not change!"

   "Only fools change!"

   When he said this, many people were secretly observing the expression on Old Charlie's face.

  They thought that old Charlie would panic, or even burn out.

  However, to those people's disappointment, old Charlie didn't take their complaints to heart at all. He still had that calm expression, as if he didn't hear them at all.

   It was Yu Hu standing in the crowd, who was more anxious than old Charlie.

  Different from other residents on Beit Street, he has seen those silver and copper coins. The group of blue coats in the Wetland Park used these coins to buy things, and they could buy a lot of good things.

   Now someone actually says that it is only a fool who exchanged chips for those silver coins, how could he bear it?

  However, just when he was about to explain, Yu Xiong, who was standing aside, saw his plan at a glance, and immediately stretched out his hand to give him a hand.

   "Brother, what are you pulling me for?"

  Seeing his younger brother who looked angry and shook his head, Yu Xiong said in a serious tone.

   "What can you tell them? What's the point of fighting?"

  Yu Hu looked anxious.

"But-"

"There's nothing wrong with it. Brother Chu can't even think of things that you can think of? Since he made this decision, he must have his thoughts and plans. As for us, we just need to do our jobs well and don't worry about it." If you don’t help, you will cause a lot of trouble for others!”

   After being reprimanded by his elder brother, Yu Hu finally calmed down.

  I didn’t think about it before, but what my brother said seems to make sense.

  Brother Chu is so smart, how can he fail to consider the current situation?

  Having figured this out, Yu Hu immediately relaxed, looking at those prodigies who clamored to be beaten to death and refused to exchange their chips for silver coins, he felt like idiots.

hehe.

   Wait and see!

   When I go back, I will exchange all the chips at home for silver coins. Who will suffer when I see it!

  Yu Hu and Yu Xiong's fathers were silent, but they obviously had their own ideas in mind.

   "The chips are not in a hurry to change."

  Pointing the elder son's arm with his index finger, Lao Yu lowered his voice and said.

   "If you have received silver coins and don't want them, let's exchange them with chips... we should be able to exchange more."

  Yu Xiong was taken aback for a moment, then immediately understood what his father meant, and nodded.

"good!"

  Give enough time for the surrounding residents to discuss. After they had enough discussion, Old Charlie spoke slowly and continued to talk about other arrangements.

   Such as the Guard.

  Although the original guard has been disbanded, Beit Street cannot remain undefended for a day.

  The captain of the guard is temporarily held by the eldest son of the Yu family, Yu Xiong. At the same time, 15 young people under the age of 35 and over the age of 14 are publicly recruited to form a new guard team.

  The daily work of the guard is patrolling, standing guard, and training.

  The work intensity is not high, and you don’t have to risk your life. At least it’s safer to stand behind the bunker behind the wall than to scavenge and hunt in the ruins.

   As for treatment, in addition to food and housing, the street office will also pay each guard a salary every month.

  Currently this number is 50 silver coins, and it may increase in the future.

  Although I don’t have a specific concept of the purchasing power of silver coins, I heard from old Charlie that at the grocery store run by the street office, one silver coin can be exchanged for one kilogram of croissants or green wheat.

  50 silver coins a month, that is 50 kilograms of grain.

  Part of the money can be exchanged for salt or other daily necessities at the grocery store, which is completely enough for a family!

  After Old Charlie's voice fell, many people showed eager expressions on their faces, planning to wait a while to get a fingerprint and sign up for a try.

  If you choose it, you don’t have to worry about going hungry all winter!

   "...In addition, the central castle on Beit Street will open a welfare school. Currently, there are two courses of literacy and arithmetic."

  "All teenagers aged 6 and under 14 must complete two semesters of courses. During the class, the school will provide a free lunch to the entrants.

  "Youth over 14 years old can sign up for the adult class from 7:00 to 9:00 p.m. without any fees. If you have passed the two courses, you can work in the street office."

   Obviously, compared to the recruitment of the guards, the vast majority of Beit Street residents are not very interested in this so-called school, nor do they regard it as a benefit.

  However, things like managing meals are quite attractive.

  Even if you only care about the children’s food, you can save some food for the family in the winter.

  Whether or not the inhabitants of Bate Street are interested in literacy and numeracy, literacy is a must.

  Establishing order is the first step, and getting rid of ignorance is the second step. Only after completing these two steps can we lay a solid foundation for further work.

  Looking at the survivors whose faces were full of ignorance, old Charlie sighed softly in his heart.

   There is a long way to go.

  After all the arrangements were explained, Old Charlie immediately announced the adjournment of the meeting.

   Except for those who planned to sign up for the guard stayed, the rest of the residents went back to their homes.

  Many people will go hunting soon, so they hurried home to pack up their equipment before it was completely bright.

   They were all on their way home, Wang Defu, the third son of the Wang family, complained angrily.

   "Why do you want someone from the Yu family to be the captain of the guard? There are only two males in their family, why!"

   Not only was he dissatisfied, but his two older brothers were obviously not very happy either.

   Especially his elder brother Wang Biao.

  Until Old Charlie opened his mouth to announce the candidate for the captain of the guard, he had a cheerful expression.

   After all, from the beginning to the end, he regarded himself as Old Charlie's man.

  However, when old Charlie announced the candidate for the captain of the guard, he felt that the whole world turned gray in an instant, and his face became uglier than eating poop.

  Why?

  It is obvious that he risked his life to send a letter to the Bloody Hand clan, and it is obvious that he kept his mouth shut and kept the secret that the Bloody Hand clan was destroyed for old Charlie.

   It turned out that the person who became the captain of the guard was actually a member of the Yu family?

  After hearing this arrangement, he felt that the few chips in his pocket were not good...
