Chapter 131 The Guard's Exclusive Weapon

   "Hey! You don't lose a chicken! This wave of my blood is a loss!"

  Official website forum.

   When I saw the edge brother and a group of cloud players forcibly explaining that this wave of "extreme 1-for-1" was not a loss at all, [Pharaoh Next Door] couldn't help but jump out.

   Seizing the opportunity, a certain version pet took the lead in launching a group ridicule.

Ye Ao Nai I He: "Laugh to death! 10 hits 1, and someone beats 1 dead and 1 injured, will you play games? If I were you, you would smash your helmet, wash it and sleep, the dishes are like this And play with a hammer. Of course, this game does not exist at all, anyway, you continue to make it up, I will see it as a joke. "

  Irena: "To add a piece of cold knowledge, the packaging and testing helmet is borrowed by the game company to play. After all, you didn't even spend the shipping fee or let you recharge the card. If you break it, you will probably get a lawyer's letter. (Funny

Swiping at the edge: "Cough, I'm sorry, Old Wang. I admit that this wave of command is indeed a bit wrong. I didn't expect this mutant to play yin, even tripwire mines, so I don't talk about martial arts! But Don't worry, I have already mastered their routines, and I will definitely be firm next time!"

   Pharaoh next door: "I believe in you! If I get into your black car again, I'm a dog!"

Killing Chicken at Midnight: "It's really a bit of a loss, it's really a loss. A goblin rocket is 5 silver coins, and the basic income of the task is 15 silver coins. The 15 silver coins rewarded by killing a mutant is still the team bonus pool, and only 1.5 silver coins are distributed to each person. ."

  The edge of the water: "Isn't the 15 silver coins rewarded for you! Obviously I also shot a shot, okay?"

  Midnight Killing Chicken: "No, I just want to complain, that rocket hair is useless, and it didn't blow up at all, and I had to rush up with an axe to make up for it."

WC really has mosquitoes: "Gan! Why don't you use it to blow up mutants? Why don't you blow up claw crabs? The official website database has written that the physique data of mutants is above 30, and the upper limit is unknown. What is the concept of 30 physique? ?! Physique players don’t necessarily have such high attributes when they reach level 20, right! Be reasonable, brother, it’s not my rocket that blew it up, do you have a chance to make up for it?”

   Killing Chickens at Midnight: "Qian!"

  WC really has mosquitoes: "Fuck!! You wait, take me on this mission next time! (Angry

  Irena: "Forget it, I was a little scared. I wanted to see if I was resurrected tomorrow... I still didn't go. (funny

  Ye Shi: "Don't be a coward, Lao Na, I remember you being super brave. (Funny

  Irena: "You call me Laona again, I'm going to take revenge! (#｀Ware

  7pm, Vault 404 Resident Hall.

   After dinner, Chu Guang sat in front of the computer, flipping through the forum as usual to see what his little players were talking about.

   In order to make it easier for him to spy on the screen more efficiently, or to review memorials, Chu Guang asked Xiao Qi to help him make a table to count the most popular topics on the forum every night from 6:00 to 7:00.

  This time is basically the most active time for the beta testers on the official website.

   Not surprisingly, "The Tribe of Mutants on 76th Street" occupied the top of the hot topic list, ranking first.

   This is the outpost's first encounter with the mutant tribe on 76th Street.

Before   , most players' impressions of mutants were the pictures and text settings in the official website database, as well as the second settings made up by netizens based on official data.

   Although on the surface, it was a bit embarrassing to score 1 out of 10, but Chu Guang knew very well in his heart that it was not bad to be able to score this record.

   The average level of the first players to participate in the battle is LV5, and the outpost can only be regarded as the second echelon. Neither the level nor the combat experience can be regarded as the top, and it is normal to suffer a little loss.

   Then again, those green-skinned muscle guys are notoriously tough.

  Its extraordinary recovery ability and resistance, almost invulnerable to all poisons, not only that, they also have a digestive system comparable to mutant hyenas, so hungry they can even eat the carrion on the body of the gnaw.

   It is no exaggeration to say that they are even more adapted to the environment of this wasteland planet than the alien species. At least in the early years, the aliens and the survivors were brutally tortured by the harsh winter. Only these green-skinned muscle men who appeared out of nowhere, their footprints spread all over the wasteland planet.

   Some say they are victims of biological weapons, others say they embrace evolution actively, and some say they are biological weapons themselves.

  A more reliable rumor is that their ancestors came from a refuge with an unknown number. Because they could not survive the desperate winter in the early days, they were forced to accept genetic modification technology that has not yet been fully developed.

   In fact, aside from being a little ugly, the genes of these green-skinned muscle guys are still very strong. They not only have high adaptability to the wasteland environment, can live in a radiation environment for a long time and ensure the stability of genetics, but also have an "iron stomach" that can digest almost all food.

  If they were given thousands of years to develop, maybe they might replace the old humans with the identity of new humans and become the new masters of this planet.

   However, mutants are not without weaknesses.

  The overly large volume makes them have to live in taller houses, and the utilization rate of the pre-war civilization heritage is much lower than that of humans. Thick fingers and underdeveloped cerebellum make it difficult for them to use their joints as flexibly and harmoniously as humans, and more effort must be made to make precision instruments... But due to their tribal culture, this is almost impossible possible.

   Even some looters will make their own weapons like iron-barreled rifles, but for mutants, stuffing black powder into jars to make tripwire mines is almost the apex of their tech tree.

  If they have guns, they must have taken them from other humans. Most of the time, firearms will wear out as fast as ammunition in their hands. Those who pursue primitive violence and cold weapons will be more inclined to use axes, saws, and slaughter knives to shred their opponents and hang their intestines on their own. Armor, intimidating foes that are still alive.

   This is the most time-saving way to kill for them.

   Plus, despite their near-metamorphic resilience, the head is still their weak point.

Even if their chests can withstand the continuous shooting of a 7mm rifle, and rely on "unscientific" resilience and toughness to quickly repair damaged muscle tissue, internal organs and bones, it is difficult to put back the tofu brains that have been spilled all over the place. .

Therefore, many mutants will put a heavy helmet on their head even if they have a red fruit upper body. If conditions permit, they will also get some car doors, billboards, chariot armor pieces and other things to hang on their chests to protect them. So easy to repair cardio.

Chu Guang noticed that Brother Fang Chang edited a summary post, summed up the discussions and exchanges of the players who participated in the battle today, and comprehensively analyzed the weaknesses and strengths of the mutants. Tribe players provide a relatively reliable reference.

"Let's talk about the conclusion first, this task is still a bit difficult for players below LV5! Referring to the panel data provided by the official website, this mutant is placed in other MMORPGs, at least equivalent to level 20 monsters. A group of level 5 players challenge 20 Level monsters are obviously overstepping monsters, and it is normal for casualties to occur."

"However, Wasteland OL is a bit different from other MMORPGs. The effect of attributes is not as direct as other games, but more similar to the DND rules. That is, as long as you roll a high enough points in a row, the outrageous things like goblin slaughtering dragons will not work. It's not impossible."

"I estimate that the plan to arrange the mutant tribe near the outpost of the novice village should be to test whether the asymmetric battle will affect the game experience. After all, it is a real wasteland, and the danger will not be far away because of your weakness. You. If my analysis is correct, then congratulations to everyone, we have made a big step forward from the open beta! Our players have proved with practical experience that level suppression is not absolute, and high-level monsters are not invincible! Even if we can't see their health bars!"

   "Of course, having said that, if you don't have enough confidence in your own strength, it's best to choose carefully whether to take this mission or not."

   "However, opportunity always comes with risk. If you can knock down the mutant tribe, the reward should be very rich."

   "There are many hidden mechanisms in this game. If you are interested, I suggest you think about it more!"

  …

   The next day.

   After lying in the training cabin all night for [Edge Row], his leg injury was almost healed, so he tied a homemade bandage on his thigh, and he jumped and pulled a group of teammates and continued to set off.

The    teammates are still those of yesterday, but this time, the [Pharaoh Next Door] who was waiting for the CD to be resurrected was replaced by [WC really has mosquitoes].

   Brother Mosquito, in order to be ashamed, this time, he also made a lot of money. He directly brought a half-human-height large box and asked a power player to help carry it.

  The group set off from the east gate aggressively and killed them in the direction of 76th Street.

  Although Chu Guang has appropriately increased the income of the raid mission in consideration of the strength of the mutants, but carrying so many guys... can it really make a return?

   Other players are also complaining.

   "Are the mosquitoes crazy?"

   "Good guy, such a big box, it doesn't cost money to be gunpowder!"

   "Too hardcore!"

  Ye Ten glanced at the surrounding teammates.

   "To be honest, I kind of want to go take a look."

  Guangfeng and Lao Bai ignored him, only Fang Chang glanced at him and said realistically.

   "To be honest, let's hand over the 'greenhouse ruins' first, it's been a long time."

  Although I was curious about what was in the mosquito's box, it was obvious that the next move was the most important thing.

After    Fangchang and his party changed into the "anti-moth equipment", they also set off from the east gate.

  The greenhouse site is at the entrance of 76th Street, and the two groups happen to be on the same road.

  Chu Guang glanced at the sky through the drone, then returned the control of the drone to Xiao Qi and went to Boss Xia's weapon shop.

  Since the new workbench, Boss Xia no longer rubs bullet casings with his hands. Put the cut and formed rough material in the mold, start the stamping module and poke down, and a brand-new cartridge case is stamped and formed.

   However, punching the case is only the first step in making a bullet. If you want to get a bullet with enough power and stable performance without jamming, you have to go through a series of tedious processes.

   In order to improve work efficiency, Xia Yan hired 2 female workers from the nomadic camp, each with two silver coins per day, regardless of food or housing.

   One of them is responsible for filling the cartridge case with propellant and primer with professional tools. Another was in charge of attaching lead warheads to the finished cartridge cases.

  Xia Yan himself is a professional tool on the operating table, processing warheads and shells, crimping the bottom of the bullets that have completed the charge, and rolling grooves for the bullets embedded in the shells to ensure absolute sealing between the bullets and the shells.

  After all the processes are completed, the bullet also needs to be washed with water to wash away the metal debris on the surface of the bullet casing.

  These metal shards that cannot be seen by the naked eye have a small chance of causing jams and affecting shooting accuracy.

   However, even after so many processes, the bullets produced still cannot compare with those produced by professional assembly lines.

   But for players, this kind of stamped bullet is much more comfortable than the rolled bullet that Boss Xia used to "low-speed stamping" with a small awl.

   At least, the dents and pits are not visible on the casings of these bullets. No more worrying about banging and squatting down to deal with stuck cartridges.

"Is there a problem?"

   Looking at Chu Guang who was walking towards him, Xia Yan placed a basket full of bullet casings that he had just disposed of on the wooden table next to him.

  These bullet-making parts are enough for the two unskilled employees in the next room, who have been busy for a while.

  Chu Guang looked at her and asked.

   "What is our ammo stockpile now?"

   Xia Yan replied.

   "There are still 3,500 rounds of coiled bullets left. For punching bullets, including the ones you brought back from Beit Street and the ones I made this week, there are a total of tens of thousands of rounds."

  Chu Guang looked slightly surprised.

   "So much?"

   shook the bangs in front of his forehead, and the corners of Xia Yan's mouth curled up a little, as if he was very proud.

"A lot? It's okay, the processing efficiency of this workbench is not bad. As long as you master the skills, the processing speed is much faster than before. In addition to making bullets, I also used other materials to imitate 4 7mm iron tube rifles. It's not as good as what you bought from the merchants in Boulder, but it's not a problem to use. But I have to remind you that at this rate, the copper in the warehouse may not be enough by the end of next month."

   Although this reminder was taken seriously, Chu Guang did not take it too seriously.

  Better Street is currently under the control of Vault 404.

   If necessary, he can easily raise the price of resource recovery and mobilize the scavengers in Bett Street to go deep into the urban area within the Fifth Ring Road to collect resources.

   In addition, he can mobilize local survivors to form a scavenger team through Old Charlie, and **** the players to those dangerous areas that they would not normally approach to scavenge.

   "Don't worry about this, I will arrange for people to increase the collection of resources."

   After a pause, Chu Guang continued.

"In addition, I plan to train a group of guards to maintain law and order at the outpost. I need about 15 iron-barreled rifles... Well, it's better to do it within a week. If the construction schedule is too fast, the work of making bullets will be delayed for a while. It's okay to slow down."

   "Guards?" Xia Yan gave Chu Guang a strange look and joked, "Who can fight better than your 'players'?"

   "That's different."

  Chu Guang shook his head, he really didn't know how to explain the difference between NPC guards and player guards, so he didn't explain it at all.

   "In short, it's not okay to let players do the same job for a long time. They work for us not for money, but for fun."

  The guards standing guard at the gate and patrolling outside, these jobs are generally done by newcomers, and the old players don't look down on that little profit.

  Currently, the release speed of new versions is quite fast, and new people are constantly coming in, but don’t worry about no one doing these basic positions.

   But if the influx of refugees continues, law and order will soon become a big problem.

   It is obviously unrealistic to expect that the work of maintaining law and order will be completely handed over to the players, and this is not what they are good at.

  Chu Guang planned to recruit some survivors from the brick factory to form a standing guard with a fixed staff to maintain law and order in the area of ​​the outpost.

   Their weapons don't have to be too good, they are enough to intimidate.

   At the same time, these NPCs are also a constraint for players.

   After all, no matter how good Xiaoqi's eyesight is, it can only be used as a tool for supervision and adjudication, and its deterrence is definitely not as good as a group of guards with rifles and armbands.

When the number of players    goes up, these people will definitely come in handy.

   "Fun??" Xia Yan's eyes widened, and he murmured, "What kind of fun can this be?"

   There are people who feel happy about work.

   This is so unreasonable!

   "You don't understand, anyway, just do as I say."

   If you don't tell me, how can I understand?

  Xia Yan complained silently in his heart, but he didn't dare to confront the boss in person, so he nodded obediently.

"Okay, 15 guns, right? It won't take a week. If you stop the bullet-making work, it can be done in three or four days. By the way, what caliber do you want? Bolt or runner? Just the wall Is that 7mm iron-barreled rifle that hangs on it?"

   "7mm caliber, bolt-action type is fine, but I have some requirements for appearance."

   Having said that, Chu Guang raised his arm, stroked his index finger on the VM, and sent a drawing downloaded from the Internet to Xia Yan's VM.

   Looking at the picture on the screen, Xia Yan was stunned for a moment, his expression full of weirdness.

   Thick and long frame, heavy receiver and magazine, pure wooden stock.

  Although the shape looks a little more beautiful than the iron-barreled rifle on the wall, and it is full of rude power as a whole, but she really can't think of the meaning of designing the gun in this shape?

  The design is so heavy, is it for the convenience of smashing people?

   "I can't understand it a little... I won't complain about the gun body. Is it necessary to design this receiver so wide?"

  Chu Guang said indifferently.

"It just looks thick in appearance. Those flashy parts, you can understand as a kind of 'skin designed for deterrence', anyway, it is not difficult to process, and it does not consume much materials. As for the barrel, machine The effective structure, including the box, spring, and firing pin, is still an imitation of the rifle we bought from the Boulder merchant."

"Fine……"

  Xia Yan nodded helplessly.

   There is also text under the picture, is it to be engraved on the stock as the name of the weapon?

   Arbiter Type I?

   sounds weird...

   "Well, I'll leave it to you."

   After explaining the matter, Chu Guang planned to leave, but at this moment, the VM screen on his arm suddenly lit up, and a text message popped out.

  The news was undoubtedly sent by Xiaoqi.

   "Master, your player seems to be in trouble!"
