Chapter 9 Gene sequence and player level

  The amount of work done in the afternoon is almost three times that of the morning.

   There were a total of fifty logs of different thicknesses, which were pulled by the players with ropes and carts, and carried to the wall of the nursing home.

   To be honest, the performance of these players exceeded Chu Guang's expectations.

  The length of each piece of wood is between 10 and 8 meters, and the length can even reach 20 meters, and more than half of them are the thickness of thighs.

  Chu Guang counted, a total of 2000 points of contribution.

  Among them, Lao Bai achieved the most results. He achieved 800 points by himself, and Gu Feng was probably the worst. This guy's clone is not good at sports, that is, the physique of an ordinary person. After a busy day, he only earned 300 points.

   As for the use of this thing?

  Chu Guang hasn't figured it out yet.

  The shelter is now a poor group, he only has two lollipops in his pocket, and there was a compressed biscuit before, but he has already gnawed it off.

  After much deliberation, he only told the players that in addition to waiting for three days for resurrection, they would also have to spend resurrection coins.

  Resurrection coins need to be purchased with contribution points.

  Although the "purchasing power" of contribution points is a bit weak, players don't seem to care too much.

   After all, it is now in the beta testing stage, so it is understandable that the game has less content. As long as you don't delete files and store more money, you can always find a place to spend when the server opens.

  In addition, the contribution point has no entity, it is just a number, which can only be viewed on the official website after going offline for the time being.

  Although Chu Guang also wanted to learn from Boulder City and get some visible and tangible coins, there was no way. The conditions in the shelter were too difficult, and he couldn’t even get the materials for “coins”.

  He can never give chips to the players.

  Although that thing is the hard currency in this area of ​​Qingquan City, he doesn't have many left.

   Besides, it is useless to send chips directly to them, and it is impossible for players to go to the survivor stronghold to trade by themselves.

  I can communicate with the survivors because I have traveled here as a soul, and I have the language of this world in my head.

  And the clones used by those players are completely blank sheets of paper, they don't even have basic intelligence, let alone the idea of ​​inheriting memory.

  The language used by the survivors in this area of ​​Qingquan City is the common language of Renlian.

   This language is completely different from the language of any country or nation in the present world. At most, it is only slightly similar to Chinese in terms of grammar and pronunciation.

  In the future, Chu Guang will consider developing a set of translation tools to solve the problem of communication between players and "NPCs", and redesign the distribution system and economic system by the way.

but not now.

  …

   After counting today's work results, it's getting dark.

  Chu Guang looked up at the setting sun in the sky, and narrowed his eyes slightly.

  It's going to be night.

   "Master Manager, I found that our outpost has no electricity," Fang Chang stepped forward and said, "Why don't we think of a way to get a generator?"

   That's a good question.

   Unfortunately, it is equal to nonsense.

   "We don't have any extra generators," Chu Guang looked at him, "Which one of you knows about this? Or do you have electrician-related technology?"

  The players looked at each other.

   "Can't you pull a wire from the ground?" Ye Shi asked a very mentally handicapped question.

   "There is not such a long line, and the energy in the shelter is not unlimited. Even if it can be used in the short term, the long-term problem still cannot be solved, and even greater hidden dangers will be planted."

   Speaking of this, Chu Guang paused.

   "It's getting late, we should go back."

   What I said here is going back, for the players, it naturally refers to "offline".

  Although it’s not completely dark yet, it’s already five o’clock in the afternoon, and it’s about to dawn in Huaguo in the parallel world.

   Unknowingly, I have been in the game world for so long, and the players who suddenly came to their senses have unsatisfactory expressions on their faces.

  I always feel that there are still many places worth exploring in this world.

   But there is still work to do during the day, and it is impossible to stay here all the time.

  …

  In Vault 404.

  Looking at the players lying down in the training cabin, Chu Guang thought, maybe he should also try to recruit some idlers who have no work during the day.

   or players in other time zones.

   Otherwise, at night, I would be the only one left in the huge outpost, which is not suitable from a security point of view.

   "It's better to continue to sleep in the shelter today."

   If it is not necessary, he really does not want to go back to that "kennel" on Beit Street.

   Just as Chu Guang was thinking about what to do, Xiao Qi came by his side.

"Owner."

"What's wrong?"

   "The physical examination report of the clone has been updated, would you like to take a look at it?"

  Chu Guang hesitated a little.

"…Medical report?"

   "Well! Every time the player logs out normally, the cultivation cabin will scan the clones in the cabin, record the physical status of the clones, and extract a certain number of embryonic stem cells for backup, recording the development progress of the gene sequence—"

   "Wait, what is a genetic sequence?"

  Hearing this unfamiliar keyword, Chu Guang always felt that he had missed some key information.

   Facing the manager's question, Xiao Qi answered disapprovingly.

   "Didn't you find out? The clones used by each player are synthesized from different DNA, and the gene sequence is the number of different DNA."

  Chu Guang then asked: "Then what is the development progress?"

   "The DNA of each sequence is carefully designed, but unfortunately, we have not fully grasped the mysteries of life."

  “Not all traits of genetic information are fully expressed. It’s as if the children of athletes are more likely to become athletes, but they are not born athletes.”

   "The so-called development progress refers to the degree of dominant expression of a specific segment in the gene sequence, usually expressed as a percentage."

   "For example, if the development progress reaches 100%, it means that the performance of the living body is infinitely close to the limit of genetic design and has reached the most perfect state...but this is almost impossible."

   "Currently, the development progress of the four gene sequences we have activated is between 0 and 1%. According to research, as long as we continue to stimulate the survival instinct and exercise the body, this value can be increased."

  If you understand "gene sequence" as a profession, "development progress" is probably similar to a grade.

  Gene sequences that focus on strength enhancement are like the "barbarians" in the DND rules. They are born with stronger strength and tend to increase their strength attributes.

  For example, "The white horse passes through the gap".

  The other players are quite normal, but he is thick and big, obviously not a normal person.

   Good guy.

   These clones—oh no, players, they are upgradeable!

   And there is such a setting as talent!

  He only knows about such an awesome thing now!

  Looking at Xiao Qi who was explaining as if nothing had happened, Chu Guang couldn't help but said.

   "Why did you tell me such an important thing now???"

  Xiao Qi said aggrievedly: "Didn't you tell me not to speak up suddenly? I planned to tell you from the beginning."

  Chu Guang: "..."

This guy…

   Absolutely deliberate!
