Chapter 339 Even the Emperor of Europe, there are times when he is wrong

   "Damn it! Why is it second-hand?!"

  The barracks near Dawn City, next to the arsenal.

  Commander Quan Shui finally saw the "first prize" he had drawn, and he was dumbfounded on the spot.

  The thick barrel exudes a cold light.

   However, no matter how you look at it, it looks like it has been painted over.

   Not just the barrel, but other parts of the exoskeleton as well. Although it has been repaired, obvious bullet marks can still be seen on the jet-black exoskeleton.

   Among them, the battery module and ammunition rack have obviously been replaced, and the helmet is completely wrong. It is estimated that it is a new one made of aluminum alloy.

   Good guy!

   is not just used goods.

   is also an overhauled battle-damaged version!

   Realizing this, the good mood of the spring was instantly gone.

   The only consolation in his heart was that the 120mm mortar and automatic reloading system still worked. Fortunately, this is also the case, otherwise he would have to bring a valet next to him to help load the bombs.

   That's like taking off your pants and farting.

   Looking at the expression on the face of brother Quan Shui, who wanted to cry without tears, the little players who were going to take a breath of European gas next to him immediately burst into laughter.

"Ha ha ha ha!"

   "Laugh to death!"

   "I feel sorry for Brother Shui, I still didn't dodge the attack from the head."

   "Woooooo, thank you for planning! I finally cut this shit!"

   “#%@&!”

  Brother Quan Shui's face flushed with anger, scolding in his mouth, he pulled the battlefield atmosphere team and Lao Hei, who were smirking and suffocating internal injuries, and went to the forest to test guns.

  Although the predators in Xizhou City have been resolved, there are still a large number of aliens roaming in the forest.

  These xenogeneic species reproduce extremely quickly and may spread from other regions.

  When there are a lot of people, these alien species will hardly come close, and will even take the initiative to hide away.

   However, once they find someone who is alone, they will approach and wait for an opportunity.

  The 1st and 2nd Corps will patrol regularly to prevent aliens from attacking survivors on the construction site, as well as loggers who chop down trees.

   But it is obviously not enough to rely on two corps to protect the safety of five or six thousand people.

   Early this morning, the quartermaster released a large number of hunting missions, including almost all the alien species that may exist in the surrounding area of ​​Dawn City.

   Including monsters, myriads, mutated brown bears, death claws, claw crabs, warship shrimp, blackwater snakes, and more.

   On the one hand, they weaken their population by hunting.

   On the one hand, you can also make some game to improve everyone's food.

   One of the biggest contributions of the new alliance to the wasteland is probably the cooking method that brought another world.

  Many alien species that were inedible or unpalatable in the past have now become delicious.

  You can also find some game near Dawn City.

   When we got to Dawn City, the bigger aliens were almost invisible.

  The three of them walked in the woods for a while, and I suddenly stopped, raised my right hand to signal to my teammates to stop.

  Commander Quan Shui said excitedly upon seeing this.

"what's the situation?"

   Curcume closed his eyes and frowned. After waiting for a while, he whispered.

   "It's about 500 meters away from us... It should be a little east, it should be a monster."

Commander    Spring Water couldn't help but complain.

   "What should it be, you are all awakened, can't you be more precise in reporting?"

   "Hey! I'm not a radar!" I complained in the darkest voice.

   Commander Quan Shui looked at the battlefield atmosphere team next to him.

   "Battlefield guy, take a look, remember not to do it first, I'll cover you with the barrage for a round before you come on."

  The Battlefield Atmosphere Team was speechless.

   "It's still covered by a bullet screen, just a monster, do you need a cannon?"

Can the    mission money be used to earn the shells back?

  120mm mortar shells are more expensive than 88mm.

   "You don't understand! This is called caution!" Commander Quan Shui said plausibly.

  The Battlefield Atmosphere Team rolled their eyes and headed forward with their rifles in their arms.

  Commander Quan Shui put his hands on the ground, the support column slammed into the ground, his **** slammed back, and the gun barrel was raised high.

  I looked at the darkest side with a weird expression on my face.

   I don't know if it's his illusion, he always thinks this thing looks like a water arrow turtle.

  It doesn't matter what he thinks, his laugh is low, and he almost didn't laugh out loud.

   "Pff-hahaha..."

  Commander Quan Shui ignored him and kept his eyes on the vm that was thrown to the ground.

   Wait for a while, and a line of words is sent on the screen.

   Battlefield Atmosphere Team: [It's a monster, and it's still an adult, it looks like it weighs six or seven hundred kilograms. 】

At the same time the    message was sent, the coordinates of the monster were also marked on the map.

   Seeing the news, Commander Quan Shui suddenly came to his senses, moved the gun barrel behind him, and talked to himself excitedly.

   "32 degrees north by east, 671 meters in a straight line - fire!"

The    voice fell, the thick and long barrel made a bang, and the thick cannonball shot up high and fell heavily.

   One shot didn't end, and the explosion hadn't come yet, so Brother Quan Shui made two more shots.

   "Boom-!!"

  The cannonball landed, three heavy artillery booms rang out, and the roaring flames bloomed in the forest.

   The monster didn't realize what happened before it was swallowed by the fragments and flames of the explosion.

   "Fuck..." I was the darkest on the side, with a surprised expression on my face.

   At a distance of 500 meters, although the explosion could not be seen, he could clearly feel that the entire forest nearby was disturbed by the explosion...

   Feeling the tremors of the earth and the warm wind blowing slowly, Commander Quan Shui felt a burst of excitement in his heart.

   This power!

   It's just blown away!

   "It's good for the whole drone! By the way, I am an intelligence department, why did I forget to bring a drone out!"

   There were scoldings in the communication channel.

   "...Fuck! Can you say something before you fire the cannon? Fortunately, I hid quickly and almost disappeared with me!"

  Quan Shui Commander: "Hahahaha! Brother, is this equipment awesome? You wait for me for a while, and I'll come over and check the damage radius."

   Battlefield Atmosphere Team: "??? Did you listen to me?"

   put away the fixed stakes that were driven into the ground.

  The spring water guy picked up the VM on the ground and walked towards the shelling coordinates excitedly.

  According to the shrapnel inserted in the surrounding trees, the killing radius of this shell is nearly 30 meters!

   The monster near the center of the explosion not only lost an arm, but also was shot into a sieve by shrapnel, and it couldn't die any longer!

  The Battlefield Atmosphere Team went up and took a look, and found that even the supplementary knife was omitted.

   smashed his tongue, and while he was surprised, he couldn't help but feel a hint of envy.

   This power is really nothing to say!

  …

   Just as the three little players were testing their new equipment in the forest, the delegation from Camp No. 101, who was leaving the city from the southern suburbs of Xizhou City, happened to hear the sound of an explosion coming from the forest.

   "What was that sound just now?"

  The old man over fifty raised his head with a hint of surprise on his face.

  His name is Butan, he is an environmental engineer, and water conservancy facilities are also within his scope of expertise.

   He immediately applied to join the visiting group after hearing that the New Alliance was planning to build a dam in Sixin District to control the flooded Xizhou Lake.

  If the problem of flooding of Xizhou Lake can be solved, the large black land on the northeast side of Xizhou Lake can be reclaimed into fertile land.

   He had this idea a long time ago.

   But unfortunately, there were hundreds of survivor communities, large and small, in Xizhou City at that time, and it was impossible to unite at all.

   Later, the Bonebiter Tribe killed here, and this matter was completely put on hold.

   Now Xizhou has finally ushered in a visionary leader, and the hero has set his sights on the flooded Xizhou Lake with the same vision, not to mention how happy he is.

   "Sounds like an explosion..." Another electrical engineer named Yuan Feng frowned.

"explode?"

   "Isn't the war over?"

The    delegation made a commotion and exchanged surprised glances.

   Seeing this, Lu Bei hurried forward to appease everyone.

"Don't worry, it could be our soldiers... or it could be a hunter hunting. Although the predators have been eliminated, there are still a lot of xenomorphs active nearby! But don't worry, our soldiers will do their best to protect you. Safety!"

   craned his neck and looked south, Pai asked curiously.

   "Why do you use guns for hunting? Shouldn't you use shotguns?"

  Lu Bei scratched his head, not knowing how to answer this question.

   Pai continued excitedly.

   "Can I go and have a look?"

   "No," before Lu Bei spoke, Butan, who was standing beside him, immediately reprimanded in a low voice, "It's too dangerous in the forest, and we're not here for an outing."

   "Okay...I see." Pai stuck out his tongue and answered in a long voice.

   The man in the white cloak standing beside him did not speak from the beginning to the end. The shadow under the brim obscured its facial features, and its gender could not be seen without the undulating lines.

   Fang Chang, who was walking beside the team, has been observing this special NPC.

   This NPC gave him an abnormal feeling.

   is different from the rest of the delegation.

   He saw with his own eyes that this guy came out of that door.

   At this time, Ye Shi, who was standing beside him, suddenly spoke up.

   "I feel like it might not be human."

   Gust: "...It's too bad it doesn't understand what you're saying."

   Lao Bai nodded in agreement: "I used to think that language barriers were a problem, but now I think about the language barriers in the settings, otherwise it would be a lot of trouble."

   Fangchang: "Indeed."

  The more realistic the AI ​​is, the smaller the mind is, but most players have no comprehension for their own hilarity.

  Culture is like a photo, there is nothing wrong with a little filter, hello me, good to everyone.

  Ye Shi: "Hey, I'll just say it casually... You guys are too careful about your attitude towards NPCs!"

   "No way," Fang Chang sighed and said with a sad expression, "Who wants this game to be so real? Our happiness in the rest of our life depends on it."

  Old Bai made a helpless expression: "...Fortunately, let's not say whether you are happy or not, it's hard enough to lose your favorability if you fail the hidden mission."

   Sequence level means combat power, and contribution level means social status. However, old players who have played for a while know that both are just appearances. The biggest variable in this game is actually the hidden "favorability".

   This favorability can be understood as a kind of "recognition".

   Especially the faction leaders, if the favorability is high, they can always trigger some tasks involving the main plot.

   And the benefits of these tasks are often far beyond conventional tasks.

   So why do so many people add a bunch of titles to managers? Changing tricks and flattering? Is it because of idle time?

of course not!

  The game is not a real person, let alone making money, it is not shabby!

   The group was talking when a group of people approached in front.

  I saw a blue power armor, surrounded by a dozen soldiers of the Guards regiment, walking towards them.

   Seeing the manager, Lu Bei's eyes suddenly lit up, and he greeted him excitedly.

   "Master Manager!"

   Since participating in the airborne operation, he has been training the recruits of the 3rd Corps behind the enemy, and after the war, he took Wang Zhong to Camp 101 non-stop.

   Now that the mission is over, he can finally return to the adult's side.

   Looking at this young man with loyalty written all over his face, Chu Guang, who took off his helmet, nodded with a smile, and then looked at the representatives of No. 101.

   There were six people in the visiting group.

   For a survivor gathering place with a total population of only two or three hundred, these people are already many.

   It can be seen that the other party attaches great importance to their relationship with them.

   Of course, what really makes Chu Guang happy is the knowledge these people have.

   This excited him even more than a black box.

   The old man walking in the front was about to speak when Pai next to him stepped forward and raised his index finger in a salute.

   "Dear Mr. Manager, we are from Camp 101, my name is Pai, the representative of the visiting group."

   These are the lines she thought about all night yesterday.

  It’s a pity not to say it.

   Looking at her actions, Chu Guang was slightly surprised.

   He had seen this military salute. It was in the collection of Vault 117.

   If I remember correctly...

   is the military salute of the human alliance fleet?

  Thinking of this, Chu Guang said with a joke.

   "Nice to meet you, new recruit of the fleet, but our ship is gone. The last task the organization gave you is to rebuild our homeland and wait for the day we set sail again."

   Every day, he can see the rectification of various performance arts of the players, and he has long been aware of all kinds of escaping behaviors.

   But what he didn't expect was that the girl in front of him puffed out her chest and said crisply.

   "Yes! Guaranteed to complete the mission!"

Huh?

   The radio waves are actually on the right side?

  Looking at Pai who was "making trouble" there, Butan looked at Chu Guang and said with sincerity and fear.

   "Dear Mr. Manager, please forgive her rudeness."

  Chu Guang laughed.

   "Don't be so nervous, you are not my soldiers, and you are not fighting now. You don't have to salute me."

   said, he restrained his joking expression and solemnly stretched out his right hand.

   "My name is Chu Guang, and my friends often call me Dawn, you can do whatever you want."

   Looking at the big steel hand in front of him, the old man froze for a moment, stretched out his right hand and shook it lightly with him.

   "Butan, the environmental engineer at Camp 101, I heard that you were planning to manage the lake, so I volunteered to come over. This is Pai next to me, she is a student of the most knowledgeable person in our camp..."

   is not just Pai.

  Butan introduced all the people accompanying him, including the cloaked, taciturn bodyguard.

   However, he did not introduce too much about that person, only mentioned that its name is Lyra, and its responsibility is to be responsible for the safety of everyone.

  Chu Guang didn't care. After listening to the old man's introduction, his eyes suddenly lit up.

   "So, you are an expert in water conservancy?"

   Butan said with a smile.

   "I dare not say it as an expert, but water conservancy projects are indeed within my professional field. I have checked the relevant information on Xizhou Lake before. This lake is the product of the environmental transformation plan of the Central Continent in the era of the People's Federation..."

   As soon as he mentioned his professional field, Butan couldn’t stop, and he talked a lot, from the origin of the plan to the origin of Xizhou City.

   Seeing that he was talking endlessly, Chu Guang quickly found an opportunity to grab the topic back.

   "This can be expanded on! But this is not a place to chat, please go back to the camp with me first!"

   "We have prepared a temporary resting place for you. I will go to Dawn City with you tomorrow. We can discuss in detail on the way!"

  Butan nodded excitedly.

"no problem!"

   The group continued on their way.

   On the way back, Pai kept wandering around Chu Guang, his big eyes filled with curiosity.

   Or to be more precise, the power armor that surrounds him.

   "Is this the legendary power armor?"

   "Yes." Chu Guang replied mildly.

   "Wouldn't it be tiring to wear such a big iron lump all the time?" Before Chu Guang could answer, Pai said excitedly, "Can you touch me when you're not wearing it?"

   This guy seems to have endless energy and is full of curiosity about everything he sees.

  Chu Guang did not find it annoying, but became interested in the field she was good at.

   "I heard that your teacher is very good?"

   "Of course! My master manages the archives of the entire camp! He knows everything!" Pai puffed out his chest proudly.

  Chu Guang nodded thoughtfully and continued.

"how about you?"

   "Of course I'm also super good! But unlike my master, I mainly study machinery..."

   As she spoke, she suddenly thought of something, and immediately ran to the cloaked bodyguard, and pulled out a puppet from the backpack behind it.

   The doll was very small, only the size of two palms, and was wearing a blue-striped white jumpsuit.

  Blonde hair and blue pupils are probably based on her own, but the facial features are completely different and delicate, giving people a soft feeling.

   handed it out generously, Pai said in a sweet voice.

   "To you! This is a gift from Ambassador Pai, I hope we can live in peace and friendship!"

   A black line floated on Butan's forehead, who was listening, and pinched his eyebrows with some headache.

   Although it is true that there is a part of exchanging gifts, it is obviously not the time to do this.

   Looking at Pa Yi's serious look and the doll in her hand, Chu Guang couldn't help but bend the corners of his mouth. He was about to smile and say a word of kindness.

   However, at this moment, Xiao Qi's whisper suddenly came from his ear.

  ‘woohoo, master~’

   Chu Guang's goosebumps came out of this unexpected coquettish act.

  Oh!

   Where did this guy get the voice pack?

   was about to ask what it wanted to do, Xiao Qi continued pitifully.

  ‘Can you give it to me! ’

  Chu Guang was stunned for a moment.

   What do you want this thing for?

   Looking at Pai's expectant eyes, he couldn't stand Chu Guang, who was begging Xiaoqi, and finally reached out and took the doll.

"thanks."

   A happy smile appeared on Pai's face.

   "You're welcome! I'm in a hurry to prepare other gifts, so don't take offense."

  To come and not to be indecent.

   It can be seen that this doll should be very important to her.

  Chu Guang thought about it and waved to the sky.

   A fist-sized hummingbird drone floated down, stopped firmly in his hand, and closed the thin-as-cicada-wing propeller.

   Looking at the silver-white metal ball, Pai's eyes almost stared in surprise.

   "This, is it a hummingbird?!"

  Products of the People's Union Era!

  Because of its small size and light weight, it can travel freely in a small space, and shoot in all directions without dead ends. I heard that many people in that era would use this thing to broadcast live broadcasts.

   "Looks like I've met someone who knows the goods."

  Chu Guang smiled and put the silver-white metal ball in her hand.

   The Hummingbird Drone is one of the few non-weapon-related prizes in the Premium Blind Box.

   As for this hummingbird, it was the prize he drew from the blind box last night, and he also drew two at a time.

  It’s okay to give as a gift.

  Each Hummingbird flying over the new alliance is equipped with a defensive plug-in, which can prevent it from being controlled by hostile forces even if it is hijacked and forced to land.

These security codes are written into the underlying logic of the operating system, which is enough to ensure that these things are within the signal coverage of the new alliance, will not fly where they should not go, and will not be used to do things unfavorable to the new alliance .

   Sending drones is better than sending weapons.

   Pai, who took over the hummingbird, said thank you several times, and then went to play with the drone.

   Looking at the puppet in his hand, Chu Guang's face was full of weird expressions, and he finally stuffed it into his backpack.

   This scene was seen by the little players next to them, and they exchanged whispers.

   "What is that doll?"

   "The figure?"

   "Damn it, the manager still has this hobby!"

   "This must be passed on!"

   Gu Feng, who was not involved in the topic, coughed dryly.

   "...I think it's better for you to keep your voice low. Other NPCs can't understand what we're saying, but the faction leader seems to understand."

   Ye Shi immediately closed his mouth and stopped talking.

  …

   After returning to the camp, the two sides exchanged gifts.

  The gift from Camp 101 is a holographic computer pen.

After    is turned on, the holographic imaging device of the port will release a blue light beam, and a light blue holographic screen will appear in the light beam.

   The specific operation method, Butan personally demonstrated it to Chu Guang.

   Even Chu Guang, who has seen a lot of high-tech, can't help but open his eyes and accept this gift very happily.

   When the Pioneer first arrived, he wanted to get a portable holographic computer, but unfortunately he never got the chance.

   Now this wish is finally fulfilled.

  Camp 101 showed the new alliance his skills, and Chu Guang was not stingy, and gave a generous gift in return.

  This gift includes 100 crab cakes, 100 Nuka-Cola sodas, ten packets of coffee beans, various pastries, ten rolls of devil silk and ten pieces of devil cloth, etc.

  Anyway, except for the spirit leaves and nutritional cream, all the representative specialties were stuffed into the gift bag by Chu Guang, which was enough to fill a truck.

   For a survivor colony with a size of two or three hundred people, this is undoubtedly a great gift.

   When they saw the gifts on the truck, all the members of the delegation had surprised expressions on their faces.

   "This...will it be too expensive." Butan said a little embarrassedly.

  Chu Guang said with a smile.

   "These are common objects in the new alliance, and they are not as valuable as you think, please accept them."

   When we meet for the first time, it is natural to give more.

   How about a shocking effect?

   As for the meaning, it is naturally to show the rich culture and products of the new alliance's prosperity!

   As for what is the use?

   That is so useful!

   If you don’t give some benefits, how can you make others work willingly?

   In order to facilitate communication, at the end of the meeting, Chu Guang gave Butan 100 banknotes with a face value of 100 yuan.

   Looking at the confused old man on his face, he explained patiently.

   "In the new alliance, anyone needs to pay for things, even managers, you can use these silver coins as activity funds."

  Although he was confused about how to use this thing, Butan nodded respectfully.

   "Thank you for your concern."

   After placing the visiting group, Chu Guang returned to his tent.

   Yin Fang also followed along.

   Seeing no one else around, he stepped forward and said in a low voice.

   "That Lyra is a android."

   Hearing this sentence, Chu Guang was slightly stunned.

   "Bionics?"

  Yin Fang nodded solemnly.

   "Trust me, I can't read it wrong."

   As a front-line prospector at the Academy, he has absolute confidence in his vision and intuition. From the moment we first met, he had been eyeing that guy.

  Chu Guang had a surprised expression on his face.

   Having been in the wasteland world for so long, he has heard many rumors about androids, but it is the first time he has seen them in reality.

   "The android...is there a problem?"

   "No problem, but you need to be careful," Yin Fang said solemnly, "If it's a companion-type android, it's basically harmless, but it's obviously not of this type."

   "But if it's a combat android designed as a weapon, depending on its abilities, it might be more dangerous than death claw!"

   Regardless of the breed and model, the combat power and power armor of the Death Claw probably belong to the same echelon in the wasteland.

  The former is better at singles and is more suitable for complex jungle terrain, while the latter has stronger comprehensive ability and has a good adaptability to any battlefield environment.

  Chu Guang nodded thoughtfully and wrote down this advice.

   He didn't think Camp 101 had any reason to offend himself, but there was nothing wrong with being careful.

   After explaining this matter, Yin was convenient to go back to repair the fuel rod.

   After removing the power armor, Chu Guang was about to open the VM to see how his currency recovery plan was going.

   But at this moment, the backpack that he had thrown aside suddenly trembled, and a puppet crawled out of it.

   Seeing this, Chu Guang was taken aback and took out the pistol in his pocket.

   "Woooooo, Master," the puppet pointed at by the gun showed a grieved expression on his face, "Are you going to kill Xiaoqi?"

   Hearing the familiar voice packet, Chu Guang pressed down the muzzle of the gun with a bewildered expression, glared at it and said.

   "What the hell?!"

   "I'm not a ghost, I'm Xiao Qi." The doll sitting on the table blinked.

  Chu Guang: "..."

   Seeing that Chu Guang didn't speak for a long time, Xiao Qi said cautiously.

   "Master, are you angry?"

"No."

  Chu Guang sighed and put away the gun in his hand.

   pinched his eyebrows and sorted out his thoughts for a moment. He decided to start with the question that he cared about the most.

   "This doll... what's the situation?"

   "It's a bionic robot. It is equipped with precise motor components and rare bionic control components. Except for being smaller, it is almost indistinguishable from a real person!"

   The puppet sitting on the table looked at Chu Guang with a happy face, and said with shining eyes.

   That vivid facial expression, if you don't stare at it carefully, it really looks like a real person.

"...Of course, its control program is much rougher than the peripherals, and even the most basic general-purpose AI template is used, and even the facial expressions can't be restored, so Xiaoqi simply redone its operating system. already."

   "From now on! This body is already Xiao Qi's, and the master can treat it as Xiao Qi! Hehe."

   Looking at Xiao Qi, who was so proud, Chu Guang showed a surprised expression.

   Having said that, Yin Fang didn't even realize that this doll was a bionic robot?

   That little girl named Pai has something...

   Of course, it could also be because Yin Fang's attention was all on that Tianqin.

  Chu Guang stared at Xiao Qi seriously and asked.

   "Are you sure it's safe?"

   Hearing this question, Xiao Qi said proudly.

   "Don't worry, master! Xiaoqi not only checked it twice, but also re-written the underlying logic for controlling the motor! You can always trust Xiaoqi!"

  Chu Guang felt a little relieved, but soon he felt blushing because he was worried about a girl plotting against him.

   coughed lightly and changed the subject.

   "...what's the use of this thing?"

  Xiaoqi proudly put his hands on his hips.

   "Humph, it's very useful. In the future, the master can take Xiaoqi with him when he goes out!"

   The most important thing is that it finally has its own legs!

   No longer have to go up the stairs and have to trouble Boss Xia!

   "Even if there is no such thing, aren't you by my side?" Chu Guang looked at the puppet sitting on the table strangely.

   His VM has always been connected to the Vault, and hardly ever leaves the Vault's signal coverage.

   It will be by his side whenever he needs it.

   "That's different!" Xiao Qi shook his head into a rattle and said with a look of certainty.

  Although he didn't know what was different, Chu Guang still believed it for the time being.

   Anyway, it's just something bigger than the palm of your hand, and it's not a problem to wear it on your body, and it might even be a hole card at a critical time.

   At this moment, footsteps came from outside the door, followed by the sound of Maban.

   "Sir, there's a group of people outside our camp!"

  Chu Guang frowned slightly.

   got up and came to the door. He opened the tent's curtain and looked at Maban and asked.

"Who?"

   Maban continued to speak quickly.

   "They claim to be from the northern free state of Bugra and are employed by the 'Flint' group!"
