Chapter 68 Dynamo and Exoskeleton

   Outside the South Gate.

   Twenty yaks were driven by nine well-equipped gunmen and stopped fifty meters from the south gate.

  This is a relatively safe distance for both parties without a foundation of trust.

   There were many players in the vicinity, some were chopping trees, some were transporting stones, and when they saw this group of people, they stopped their work, watched from a distance, and whispered in a low voice.

   "Look at that man's arm, is it a prosthetic?"

   "What prosthesis, that thing is a mechanical prosthesis!"

   "Do, what's the difference?"

"The difference is...comparison to cyberpunk in this way. And you look at the eyes of the second person on the left, the whole thing is mechanical! I bet it's not just mechanical prosthetics, they must have implanted plug-ins or bionics. organ!"

   "Have you seen their guns? That scorpion-shaped barrel is too handsome!"

   "Woooooo, when can I buy such a handsome weapon."

   "Don't think too much, the game official is taking it out for you to see. When you can afford it, it will be at least level 10."

   And the people in the caravan were the same, looking at these blue coats with a strange look.

   They have followed the boss to many places, and they have even been to the prosperous Far East coast. The shelters they have seen along the way have to be counted with two hands, but they have never seen such a strange one.

   "What are they doing?"

   "I guess building a house."

   "Don't they live underground?"

   "...Maybe it's enough?"

   "Maybe the coat was picked up."

  Liszt didn't care what the people in front of him thought, his face was full of impatience.

  These are the countrymen who have never seen the world. They are curious about everything and want to see everything, regardless of whether it is polite to stare at others.

   But the blue coats on them are a bit interesting. I have never heard of a shelter near Linghu Wetland Park.

   Just, looking at the way they worked so hard to build a house, it is a small community refuge facility with a low level of shelter, usually accommodating between 1 and 100 people. Such shelters usually don't have a fully circular ecosystem, at most a few dormant pods.

  I thought that either the food was out, or the electricity in the shelter ran out, and I had to come out to make a living.

   Maybe add a new location to your trade map.

   Liszt thought to himself.

   At this time, Yu Hu had trotted to the south gate, looking at Chu Guang who came out and said.

   "Brother Chu, I brought Mr. Li's caravan here... Be careful."

   The scavengers on Bette Street didn't know Liszt's full name.

   For them, this kind of big man is on the same level as the mayor, and will not talk nonsense with them at all. That's why Brother Chu is more approachable. Not only has he been neighbors with people like them for a while, but he hasn't turned his face and didn't recognize anyone after he left.

   "I'll be careful."

  Chu Guang nodded, expressing understanding, and then walked forward with several players.

   Seeing the triggering of the plot, the surrounding players quieted down one after another, and they were pulled by other players who were not quiet.

   "I always thought you were a scavenger from Bate Street. It seems that I misunderstood." Liszt smiled lightly and said in a pleasant tone, "It seems that I have made another correct investment."

   "I'm glad you think so," Chu Guang motioned to the player next to him to put the sack on the ground. Without any nonsense, he went straight to the point and said, "These are the goods you want, you can weigh them."

   Liszt made a gesture with the subordinate next to him.

  The man with the electronic eyes and the mechanical prosthesis understood, stepped forward, stretched out his alloy right hand and lifted the sack, then looked back at his boss and nodded.

   A happy smile appeared on Liszt's face.

   "Very well, you kept your promise, it seems that I didn't go all in vain."

   Said, he motioned to the other subordinates to unload the goods ordered by Chu Guang from the back of the cow and moved it to the sack with blue umbrella mushrooms.

   The 10KW firewood generator was disassembled into parts and contained in two boxes. In another box that is half a person high, there is a KV-1 powered exoskeleton.

"There are instructions in the box. We purchase directly from the manufacturer and do not provide assembly services. We only guarantee that every part mentioned in the instructions is packed in the box... In fact, there are not many, you can count them on the spot. That exoskeleton is already Once it's installed, you can open it and try it out."

   Even if he didn't say it, Chu Guang would do it.

   After all, there is no such thing as after-sales service in the wasteland.

   First, he took the manual to count the parts of the generator twice, and then Chu Guang took out the exoskeleton from the box and put it on his body.

  The weight of this thing is very light, the total weight is estimated to be less than 30 pounds, and it really looks like a skeleton.

  It can be said that all the places that should be exposed are exposed, and the places that should not be exposed are also exposed. The only places that look stronger may be the humerus on the arm and a few alloy ribs on the chest guard.

"You better not expect it to help you block bullets. The main structure of the KV-1 power exoskeleton is made of aluminum alloy and a small amount of special plastic steel, which is characterized by its excellent lightweight and dynamic design. Twelve motor groups can be used in milliseconds. Respond and provide the user with an additional 200kg of weight."

   "In addition, there are up to 12 hours of battery life, and an adaptive gait system... Of course, these are the most basic, you can refer to the manual for details."

   "If you must use it to fight, remember to install more steel plates on it. I've seen mercenaries do this at the cost of some mobility."

  Chu Guang carefully read the manual.

To sum up, this thing is good at moving bricks, with endurance A, explosive power C, and mobility is OK. As for the basic protection, there is almost no basic protection, but the skeleton design provides users with room for imagination. If necessary, you can weld steel plates on it yourself. or weapons.

   is equivalent to the engine of a tank and the chassis of a tractor.

  Perhaps the former produced too much and could not be sold, so we simply changed it and sold it to mercenaries or coolies at a lower price.

  Chu Guang estimated that the cost of this thing would not be too high. It was probably the kind that Xia Yan could afford even if he worked hard to save some money before he planted it here.

  Chu Guang even began to wonder, is this thing really worth 800 chips?

   You must know that the chips issued by Boulder City have relatively strong purchasing power.

"Have you finished trying? I have to remind you that the battery life is only 12 hours, so you don't need to keep it on all the time. Turn off the power when not in use, and just use it as a workout." Liszt saw that Chu Guang had a try. When it was over, I couldn't help urging.

   He stayed here for an extra second, and it was all time cost. Now that the deal is done, he's almost gone too.

   "After the trial... I'm quite satisfied." Chu Guang nodded, turned off the power, and took off the exoskeleton.

  This thing can be sold to players later.

  I believe that with their creativity, they can play this thing out.

   When there is a chance, he will organize a caravan and go to the Boulder City to buy a batch of goods. It is best to exchange the remaining blue umbrella mushrooms. It should be able to exchange more than what he bought at Liszt.

Liszt didn't know what Chu Guang was thinking at the moment. In his opinion, 20 kilograms of blue umbrella mushrooms had already been the entire output of this survivor's stronghold in the past half a month, and it was very likely that it took several lives to replace it. .

   With a firewood generator and an exoskeleton for so many good things, this trip has not been in vain for him.

"Happy cooperation! By the way, do you need anything else? I have a few good things left here. Salt, weapons, and some daily necessities, let's see, there is always something you can use. Even if you don't need it, Your mates should be in need too."

When    said this, Liszt raised his volume intentionally or unintentionally.

   To his surprise, the people around him didn't respond to his words, and they still looked at him with a lively expression.

   "What did the NPC say?"

   "I don't know. Whatever he says, watch it as a movie without subtitles."

   "Cow, our manager has made a set of exoskeletons!"

   "Move the bricks well and try to replace him with a full set of power armor. Isn't that much more handsome than an exoskeleton?"

   "One thing to say, the details of this game are really awesome. The player's behavior will promote the progress of the game, the progress of the game will promote the prosperity of the stronghold, and the equipment of NPCs will also change accordingly.

   "I beg the operation team to hurry up and test it! I'm so direct to V10!"

   Liszt's face was filled with confusion.

  “?”

   What are these people talking about?

   There isn't even a single person interested in what he sells, right?

  Chu Guang held back his laughter and coughed lightly, ending his embarrassment.

   "We can talk about the transaction."

   "But I don't have much chips here, I'm afraid I can only barter with you."

   "It's okay," Liszt restrained his dazed expression and continued, "Bartering, this is exactly what I expected."

   In addition to the generator and exoskeleton ordered before, Liszt's caravan brought a lot of good things.

   For example, some 9mm or 7mm bolt action rifles.

  Chu Guang found out that 80% of the things this guy sells are the leftovers and parts eliminated by the Jushicheng Military Factory, bought at a low price and dragged to a small workshop for processing.

  For example, the barrel of the 9mm iron-barreled rifle is obviously the same model as the 9mm pistol that Xia Yan used before, and even the rifling threads match.

   And the receiver is even more interesting.

The receiver of the   9mm iron-barreled rifle is similar in height to the 9mm pistol, and has almost the same gas-guiding structure. The former only has one less piston than the latter. It is equivalent to semi-automatic changing to bursts, lengthening the barrel, and unlocking at 90 degrees.

   Described in game terms, the jam rate is reduced, the mid-range accuracy is improved, and the mid- and short-range power is slightly improved.

The barrel and receiver of the   7mm iron-barreled rifle are similar to the 7mm assault rifle repaired by Xia Yan before, almost the same idea, automatic change of bolt movement, burst to single shot.

   Anyway, the rate of fire doesn’t mean much to the survivors in the countryside. Cheap, easy to use, and powerful is the choice of most wastelanders.

   After some selection, Chu Guang bought two bolt-action iron barrel rifles of two calibers each.

Although Liszt insisted that the unit price of the 200-point chips would not let go at first, when Chu Guang revealed the "secret" of the two rifles, he said that a well-made assault rifle could be sold in the store with only 150 chips. When he bought it, Liszt was finally relieved.

  By the way, this price was pryed out of Xia Yan's mouth.

"You don't know... We transported these things from the Stone City, what happened along the way! There are countless aliens and robbers hidden in the ruins, and I, who sent it to you, only need 150 chips . Is this excessive? Not at all!"

"We like to do business with honest people, an assault rifle with a 150 chip on the shelf label, its receiver and barrel is worth a maximum of 50 chips, and your cost? It's only 30 or even 20 at most, after all I don't count on it You can make these things with the best parts, and 80% of them are leftovers from the production line.”

   "This is slander!" Liszt blushed and looked angry, obviously he was right.

  Chu Guang smiled and said.

"I prefer to call it rational analysis. By the way, migrating reindeer, unlike hyenas, don't belong here, and they don't go deep into the city, but move southeast along the edge of Qingquan, let me guess. ...The wild animal skins should sell well in your place, right? Why don't you buy some deer leash back, you should be able to make a fortune."

   If it is just for a few pieces of garbage, there is absolutely no need to run north. After all, in the ruined city, you can obviously find more good things.

  Liszt said with a stiff expression.

   "I know, you don't need to teach me."

   "How about 8 pieces of deerskin for 4 rifles and 120 rounds of ammunition? I remember you and I last time, a gun sent 30 rounds of ammunition."

   "Hehe, last time the price was 200 chips. Don't even think about it, at least 12!"

   "12 sheets? Are you talking about hyena skins? If it's deerskins, then you probably have to add 2kg of coarse salt."

   "Who wants hyena skins! You are crazy, vampires are not as greedy as you!" Liszt cursed, but that's what he said.

  The ladies and wealthy ladies who live in the inner city are always in love with the beautiful fur and the adventure stories behind them. And those big men are also happy to use these hard-to-get rare things to show their luxury and splendor.

   These deerskins will be shipped back, and they will be popular for sure

  Thinking of this, he finally nodded his proud head.

   "I have to see the goods first."

  Chu Guang smiled and nodded.

"Can."
