Chapter 177 Thank you for the gift of nature

   On the way back, Yin Fang tightly held the holographic video tape with both hands, with a solemn expression, as if holding his own child.

  The right hand rubbed against it repeatedly, and it was almost patted.

  Mom...

  Fortunately, Grandpa remembered the password.

  Chu Guang looked at it and felt hot eyes, and turned his face sideways with an old man subway phone. However, at this moment, Yin Fang suddenly looked at him with piercing eyes.

   "If I take this thing back, do you think the academy will let me go? Give you the box, I don't want anything."

  Chu Guang rolled his eyes at him.

   "I'm a little more polite to you, don't you think I'm a kid?"

  Yin Fang was taken aback.

  Chu Guang stretched out his hand easily, and took the box of holographic video from his arms without any effort.

   "Do you know? I didn't kill you, I'm already very sorry for you."

  Looking at the young man whose face was gradually pale, Chu Guang didn't continue to scare him, and patted him on the shoulder with a smile.

   "You know what happened to me when I first came to this world...cough, I mean when I woke up for the first time?"

  Yin Fang swallowed, his voice trembling slightly.

   "What happened to..."

"A dog with two heads, it looks like it ran out of **** to pick me up," Chu Guang said casually as he stuffed the holographic video tape into his pocket, "If I was a little slower at that time, I might have died In fact, I found out later that if I ran east or north at that time, it was also a dead end. It is purely a fluke that I survived, and I will cherish this life, so I advise you, it is best not to let I think you're a threat."

   To the west is the lake, a dead end. Going north to collide with the predators, or going east to run directly into the pot of mutants, life would be worse than death.

  Even thinking about it now, Chu Guang couldn't help but sweat for himself.

  Yin Fang opened his mouth, looking a little dazed.

  Chu Guang ignored him, folded his arms and closed his eyes to meditate, sorting out the information obtained from the video tape earlier, and thinking about how to edit it later, and update this holographic image on the official website.

  The young players sitting on the truck looked at each other, their expressions were as if they had watched a foreign language movie without subtitles for a long time, and their faces were full of bewilderment.

  Quan Shui hooked his fingers against Zhandi, beckoning him to come over, and whispered in a low voice.

   "How do you think we should imply that the managers will give us rewards?"

  The old man in the field looked confused.

   "I don't know... just ask?"

  Both of them were embarrassed to speak first.

   At this time, I, who had been silent all this time, was the darkest to speak.

   "Master Manager! May I ask if our task has been completed?"

  Looking up and meeting a pair of expectant eyes, Chu Guang suddenly realized that he seemed to have forgotten to give the money.

  With the majestic expression on his face unchanged, he nodded calmly and said.

   "You guys are doing a great job, all of them are good."

   After thinking about it, Chu Guang finally decided to give the players a little sweetness, selected a pre-edited task reward on the VM, and clicked send.

  【Hint: Trigger hidden branches. 】

  【Reward: 10 silver coins, 100 contribution points】

  As for the dormant cabins on the truck, that is the job of the warehouse manager, and Chu Guang is not responsible for helping them calculate how much the garbage is worth.

  Seeing the prompt that popped up on the VM screen, the players showed excited expressions on their faces.

  Not to mention 10 silver coins, there is actually 100 contribution points rewarded after a story!

   This is too cool!

   Seeing them so happy, Chu Guang was also happy.

   If only everyone in the wasteland were as cute as his little players.

  The truck drove in the direction of Changjiu Farm.

  However, at this moment, a gunshot was heard from far ahead, and the bullets whizzed past the truck, and one shot even hit the front window.

   "Contact!"

   "It's a predator!"

   There were still a lot of people on the opposite side, and there were at least 30 gunshots in that round of volley, but these people were obviously amateurs, and they fired from such a distance with poor equipment, and no one fell down.

  The player driving the car is also a ruthless person. He saw that the bullet was coming from the front, and he didn't panic at all. With a slight twist of the steering wheel, he skillfully drove the front of the car into the snow.

   While preventing the engine from being damaged, he applied the handbrake and stopped with the cushion of the snow, grabbed the rifle and jumped out of the car.

   "Those who pull the big bolts stay behind, and the brothers with assault rifles follow me! We surrounded them from the flanks!"

   "Aww!"

"I'm coming!"

  Seeing that the opportunity to perform meritorious deeds came, the eyes of the players on the truck were all green, and they jumped out of the car one after another, leaving Commander Spring still on the truck.

  Although this guy also wants to go, but Naihe only has a ten-handed pistol on him, so he can't hit people at such a long distance, and he is afraid of losing his equipment if he is too close to the face.

   Immediately speaking, he shouted.

   "Hurry up! I will guard the house!"

   As he said, he fired a shot towards the front symbolically, regardless of whether he hit or missed, anyway, this combat state should be regarded as hung up.

  Bullets were flying next to him, and Yin Fang, who got up from the carriage with his head covered, looked around nervously.

"what's the situation?!"

   Could it be that people from the academy came after him? !

   "Small scene, don't panic."

  Chu Guang held the hammer with his right hand, but after seeing the situation on the other side, he pouted again, let go of the hammer and held the Gauss rifle.

  The clips contain imitation ammunition.

   Armor-breaking is a bit of a problem, but it is more than enough to fight this kind of miscellaneous soldiers...

  …

   At the same time, behind the snowdrift 300 meters in front of the truck, there were about thirty men in navy blue uniforms lying on their stomachs.

  They held uniform iron-barrel rifles in their hands. At first glance, they were all commanders of the legion, but they didn't have a single soldier under their hands. They also looked crooked and malnourished.

  The man with tattoos on his bare face held a trumpet made of iron sheet in his hand, lying behind the bunker and shouting loudly.

   "Listen, people in front, have you seen our clothes? You are surrounded by the legion! If you are sensible, throw away your weapons and surrender! Otherwise, the punishment of the legion will be waiting for you!"

   Shouted for a long time but got no response.

  The opposite side acted as if they didn’t hear them, the bullets still whizzed past their heads, or fell on the bunker in front of them.

  The man with the Mohawk shaved looked nervously at the bald brother beside him, and said with panicked eyes.

   "Boss! These people... are hard to deal with!"

   There is no response to their morale offensive!

  He even felt that when the horn yelled, the counterattack from the other side became more fierce.

  The bald head slapped him on the head cursingly.

   "Useless stuff, afraid of a hammer! Counting the drivers, there are only nine of them. We have thirty-two guns here, and we still can't eat them? Hit me! Don't let them run away!"

   After finishing speaking, he added another sentence.

   "By the way, don't beat them to death! Keep two hostages, and we have to ask for ransom from the people in their village!"

  The bald man's name was Tu, and he was originally a predator active in the middle of the River Valley Province. As for why it was at the southernmost point of the River Valley Province, that's a long story.

The Legion has been fighting with the people of the Great Rift Valley in the north for a whole year, and the progress has not been very smooth. A few days ago, they suffered a big defeat. General Klass's subordinates were killed, injured, and fled. , The whole army was defeated like a mountain.

  According to those who fled from the north, the remnants of that legion were like locusts, no grass grew anywhere they passed, and even alien species had to go around.

  Tu naturally didn’t believe in such nonsense, he only thought that idiot was frightened out of his head, and wanted to speak nonsense for his life, so that people dragged him out to drain the blood, and threw the pot into the pot for drinking.

  Legion?

   Heh, isn't that the defeat of the Great Rift Valley?

   It’s not about giving him equipment!

  However, Tu himself may not have imagined that on the third day after he and the boys bragged about making the head of the general commander into a chamber pot, the deserters of the legion really ran to the small town in front of his house.

   There were not many people who came, only nine ten-man captains, not a single clone slave. These people may have been blown mad by the shells of the Great Rift Valley, or they may have been blown crazy by the shells of their own people.

  Tu, with a hundred or so brothers under his command, naturally wouldn't be afraid of them.

However, something frustrating happened to Tu. More than a hundred people beat nine people, and the battle damage was replaced by one. He was so angry that he chopped off the only prisoner he caught on the spot, even the matter of ransom Forget it all!

   Within two days, another wave of deserters came. This time there were a little more commanders, twelve, and seventeen or eight clone slaves. They didn't kill anyone they saw like the last group of lunatics did, but they picked a place where survivors lived and directly occupied it.

  The settlement paid Tu the protection fee. Seeing that his meal ticket was gone, Tu of course couldn't bear it, and led people to surround him again.

  However, this fight was terrible, because the opponent knocked out a third of it. It wasn't that the opponent ran out of bullets, and almost lost the fight.

   This time Tu was really scared of being beaten, he finally realized the horror of locusts. Within a week, thirty or forty brothers died, and countless wounded.

  Even they who live by looting cannot bear such an exaggerated loss.

  Hearing that the deserters from the legion had come again, Tu was frightened out of his wits. This time he didn't even dare to fight, so he took his cronies, packed up his things and ran south.

  After going through ups and downs along the way, half of the people on the road scattered, and they finally found a survivor's stronghold that seemed to be living a prosperous life.

   However, the people here don't seem to be easy to mess with. The soldiers standing on the wall were all holding uniform rifles, and the smoke in the camp had never stopped. We could only see that there were hundreds of people living outside, but no one knew how many people lived inside.

  Tu didn't act rashly, and didn't even dare to get too close. He found a high ground in the north and looked there with a telescope.

   After waiting like this for two full days, when the brothers could hardly hold back, they finally got the chance to do something.

  A truck headed towards the abandoned city in the north. There were not many people on board, only a few.

  Tu didn't hesitate, and immediately seized the opportunity, leading people to ambush them on the way back, preparing to ambush them and eat them.

  However, to Tu's surprise, things didn't seem to be going as smoothly as he expected. After those people were hit head-on, not only did they not panic as expected, they even sent out people to outflank them.

  At this moment, something suddenly exploded next to it, and there was a loud "pop", which startled Tu who was about to stick out of the bunker and fire.

   "Fuck, what are you doing—" Tu turned his head abruptly. It didn't matter what he saw, and he was frightened on the spot.

  I saw the head of one of his brothers, as if he had been bombarded, his entire brain was blown away, leaving only half of his neck standing there, with blood gushing out continuously.

  Before he could react to what happened, another bang came from the side.

  This brother was even worse than the last one. He had a big hole in his chest even when he was wearing a bunker.

  It wasn't just Tu who was dumbfounded this time.

  The predator brothers standing next to him were also stunned, and even forgot to shoot for a while.

   "...what kind of weapon is that!?"

   "It's the guy in the truck!"

   "Grass! Gauss rifles?! How could they have Gauss rifles!"

  The Predator has heard the rumors of the Gauss rifle. Although he doesn't know the principle, he heard that it can penetrate power armor with one shot, which is better than the Legion's anti-material rifle.

  When they heard that it was a Gauss rifle, everyone panicked and didn't dare to fight back. However, the more they were like this, the more dangerous their situation was.

  The looter with the Mohawk looked at the boss and said in fear.

   "Boss, let's withdraw!"

   If the green hills are kept, there is no fear of lack of firewood. If the fight continues, they may be wiped out by others. Four-legged sheep are hard to find, but there are plenty of two-legged ones. This survivor stronghold can't be chewed, and the big deal is to change it.

  Tu was still hesitating, rationally telling him that he should withdraw, but he couldn't bear to let go of the fat sheep that was on his lips. Even with a Gauss rifle, their side still has the upper hand, as long as he separates some of them and walks around them from the side—

   Just when he was thinking this way, gunshots came from another direction, and then a row of bullets swished and hit their backs.

  Caught off guard, several predators at the back screamed and died.

  Tu was startled, and quickly turned his head to look, only to see a group of people killed from the direction of Yumu District at some time.

   And there are quite a few people!

   There are about a dozen of them!

   "Boss! Their reinforcements have arrived!"

   "Shut your beak, I need you to remind me! Damn it!" Tu was startled and angry, and quickly assigned a part of his staff to fill in the west direction to prevent the reinforcements from continuing to advance this way.

  He couldn't figure out how these people managed to support so quickly. It was only ten minutes since the gunshot sounded.

   Even if you react, you have to react for a while, right? !

  The situation was turned upside down in an instant, and the two groups of people moved from east to west, sandwiching them on a gentle north-south slope!

  There are people on the west and east sides. No matter which side of the reverse **** is used as a cover, they will be hit by the other side on the half slope.

   Not long after, a few more people fell to the ground, and a few more were blasted to pieces by Gauss rifles.

  In just ten minutes, the casualties approached 30%, how could these mobs have the courage to continue fighting.

  Tu could no longer control his subordinates.

  Everyone lost their battle positions one after another, fled to the north, and ran like they were dying. However, both their physical strength and physical fitness are far inferior to the players who eat three meals a day.

  Especially in the eyes of the players, these fleeing looters are like walking silver coins, contributions, and regional prestige!

   This is an encounter triggered near Changjiu Farm. It’s not too much to give an area of ​​one or two hundred reputations too much, right?

  The benevolent and generous manager is on the scene. Even if the dog planner, Aguang, picks up a little bit, Master Shuguang, who has the server authority, will definitely not be stingy with this little reward!

  Looking at their fleeing backs, the little players chasing them were like hungry wolves with green eyes, and they chased after them.

   "Don't run!"

   "Hand in your guns and don't kill!"

   "Hold your head and squat down!"

  During this time, some old players still learned a few words that NPCs could understand, and yelled, but a few predators really understood, threw away their weapons and squatted on the ground with their heads in their hands.

  In the entire encounter, the players had 0 deaths and 3 injuries, all of which were minor injuries, and one of them was chasing too hard, tripped over a tree root buried in the snow, and knocked his nose.

  It will definitely hurt for a long time in reality, but it’s okay even if you leave it alone in the game.

   As for the looters, it was too miserable. 11 people died and 26 were captured.

A reward of 50 silver, 50 tribute, and 100 area prestige was distributed to each player participating in the battle. Chu Guang then ordered the little players who cheered for the victory to take the captives to the open space in front of the north gate of Changjiu Farm. Squat on the ground.

  Bringing two guards to the prisoners, Chu Guang glanced at the dark blue coats on them and asked.

   "Are you from the Legion? Who is your commander?"

   Tu, who was bruised and swollen from the fall, tremblingly wanted to raise his hand, but before he could speak, the little guy next to him replied tremblingly.

   "I, we are not, my lord."

   That's the normal looter.

  Chu Guang understood clearly, and continued to look at them and ask.

   "Where do you get your clothes from?"

   Tu, who was squatting aside, said quickly.

"The legion in the north suffered a defeat. I heard that the leader of the expeditionary force, General Klass, was executed by the people of the Great Rift Valley. The deserters of the legion either ran west or south, and killed people on sight like locusts. Our clothes The guns and guns were all picked up from the deserters of the ten captains."

   This suit is very useful, especially in the north, and many survivors are scared to death when they see this dark blue coat, turn around and run.

  Tu also wondered, aren't these people afraid?

  Legion lost?

  Chu Guang was surprised, but not surprised.

  Such heavy snow must be more unfriendly to the attackers with long supply lines. If he were the general of the expeditionary force, he would definitely consider launching a decisive battle before the situation got worse, to determine the outcome thoroughly, and if he lost, he would go back to his home, and if he won, he would live in the enemy's home.

  The appearance of Vanus further confirmed his guess that these people could no longer fight. But what Chu Guang didn't expect was that the expeditionary army lost so thoroughly that even General Klass was killed.

  The broken soldiers of the legion are in chaos, and even the looters are forced to go south.

  I'm afraid this winter will be difficult...

  Seeing that Chu Guang was lost in thought, Old Luka thought he was not sure how to deal with these prisoners, so he stepped forward and suggested in a low voice.

   "My lord, if you are not sure what to do, you might as well refer to my suggestion."

"explain."

   "Now is the time when we need manpower to work. It would be a pity to kill it directly. It is better to send it to be a coolie. When the next spring comes, it depends on the situation. Whether to keep it for continued use, or sell it to the mine in Honghe Town."

  That's a good idea.

  Chu Guang nodded.

   But there is still a problem.

   "The guards are not manned enough, what if someone escapes?"

  Old Luca continued.

   "This is actually easy to solve. The new prisoners of war and the old prisoners of war are mixed, and they are divided into one cell. If one is missing, the other three will all be hanged."

  Chu Guang's eyes lit up: "This is a good idea, how did you come up with it?"

  Luka smiled awkwardly, lowered his head and said respectfully.

   "My lord, this is not a very rare thing... many survivors of slavery strongholds do this."

All right.

   It seems that I am too kind.

  Chu Guang sighed in his heart, then looked at the predators, with a majestic expression on his face, looked down at them and said.

   "I intended to hang you on the gallows, but killing prisoners is not an act of justice."

  Looking at the trembling captives, he continued.

  "Starting today, you will accept the transformation of labor and strive to make something useful to society, civilization, and mankind."

   After finishing speaking, Chu Guang didn't look at them, but looked at old Luca.

   "These people will be handed over to you."

  Old Luca nodded respectfully.

   "Yes, my lord."

  …

  【Announcement from the stronghold system: Looters activities in the north of Changjiu Farm (prosperity +10)】

   Quit smoking: "Wait, why did the barbarian activities increase, but the prosperity increased instead?"

  Fang Chang: "Because those people are too weak, it is no different from giving away heads. However, I think it is too little to add only 10 points. Maybe it is because of the impact of looters' activities on local public security and immigration."

  Ye Shi: "Thank you for the gift of nature. (Funny

  Smoking Quit: "So that's how it is. As expected of Brother Fang, I didn't expect it at all. The planner is awesome!"

  Fang Chang: "...?"

  Ye Shi: "Pfft."

  The boy on the construction site and Brick: "Boss Crow, why don't you sell mushrooms recently!"

  Irena: "@谷阳跑跑鼻鼠, you know (nosebleed

  Yawyaw: "Shark you guys. ^o^"

  After returning to the refuge, Chu Guang browsed around the official website, especially checking the progress of the raid on the entrance of No. 117 refuge.

  Brother Mole is still very powerful. He cooperated with Mosquito to develop a set of anti-tumor tactics, that is, find a cute new pull monster of the agility department, pull the monster up and focus fire to kill it.

   The monsters in "Wasteland OL" have no limit on the chasing distance. For those monsters without a fixed lair, in theory, as long as you are strong enough, the monsters can chase you to the ends of the earth.

   They already killed 2 creepers with this style of play!

  Brother Mole thought he had discovered a BUG, ​​and didn’t dare to explain it too clearly on the forum, but what he didn’t know was that VM would record their communication information and secretly upload it to the cloud.

  Chu Guang combined their course of action, and he could guess it without Xiaoqi's help.

  In addition to Brother Mole, another active beta tester on the forum today is Brother "European Emperor" Spring Water.

   This guy found 10 hibernation pods, all of which were in good condition. He got a total of 700 silver coins, one point with his two teammates, each with an average of 233.3 silver coins.

   This does not include the income from the subsequent battle and the plot.

   In addition, Brother Quanshui also opened a separate post, Amway mentioned the "steel nail 1.0" of the mosquito, and called it a melee artifact.

"Brother Meng, believe me, Brother Mosquito can be reliable once in a while. I swear, I have never seen a better melee weapon than a thing! At that time, I was thrown down by a creeper, and I was about to be bitten Broken neck, I clenched my fist immediately, and with a bang, a hole was pierced in the creeper's head! Simple and rude, one-shot kill! I would call it the strongest version!"

  Ye Shi: "Tell me, how much money the mosquito gave you to advertise against your conscience. (Funny

  WC really has mosquitoes: "Hey! What do you mean by being reliable once in a while, aren't my hellfires and storms unreliable? How about a strong batch!"

  Picking up garbage level 99: "I testify! Mosquitoes can be reliable once in a while, but it's a bit troublesome. Last time I carried the boiler on my back and rushed into the trenches to have a good time. It took three days before I went online."

  WC really has mosquitoes: "Repay the money!"

  Pick up trash level 99: "QAQ"

   Chu Guang, who was watching the screen, couldn't help but sigh with emotion.

   "These guys are really talented."

  At this time, there was a knock on the door.

  Chu Guang didn't even raise his head, and responded casually.

   "Come in."

  I thought it was Boss Xia who came to harass him again, but it turned out that it was Yin Fang who came.

  As soon as the young man entered the door, he didn't speak. He stood with his head down for a while, and then he opened his mouth with a face full of shame.

"I…"

   "I have to apologize to you."
