Chapter 21: Hostile Forces! New Intelligence Unlocked!

Around three o'clock noon.

Chu Guang took Night Ten and the game from the hunt and returned to the outpost of shelter 404...

The results of the exploration this time were quite satisfactory. Although the two mutant hyenas looked thinner, they both weighed 20 to 25kgs.

As one of the main sources of meat for survivors on the wasteland, mutant hyenas were the most cost-effective prey. The meat it could provide was more than ten times that of mutant rats, and there were a lot of them. They often appeared in groups of three to five. The most important thing was that the risk of food poisoning was not too high.

It was just that, in the absence of guns, it was difficult for ordinary scavengers to defeat such mutants that moved in groups with cold weapons.

"Two mutant hyenas, and... one good news and one bad news," Chu Guang said, after dropping the game at the entrance of the nursing home, and as he watched the oncoming players.

Old White took the lead in asking questions.

"What's the good news?"

Chu Guang replied.

"The good news is that there is an unfinished construction site in the northeast of the wetland park along the viaduct all the way out of the city to the north. We found a large amount of limestone used for construction there, which should have been desulfurized. There are also some abandoned trolleys. We should be able to use them after some simple repair."

An expression of joy appeared on Old White's face, and his fists were clenched in excitement.

"That’s great!"

He had been worried that he could not find the raw materials for refining calcium carbonate cement. He did not expect that this problem would be solved so quickly.

And these were also ready-made materials!

However, Ample Time, standing next to him, felt that things were not that simple.

"What about the bad news?"

Chu Guang continued.

"The main east gate of the Wetland Park, proceeding along 76th Street, is a camp for mutant humans. It is roughly estimated that the number is more than twenty."

The three players looked at each other and did not understand the meaning of this sentence.

Seeing the confusion of his companions, Night Ten hurriedly added an explanation.

"Mutant humans are hostile forces! They are powerful in combat, and, most importantly, they are cannibals. So we must be careful!"

Chu Guang nodded.

"Yes, he is correct."

Even after hearing this, the three players were not afraid. Instead, they showed eager expressions, but Chu Guang quickly poured a bucket of cold water on their excitement.

"Those mutant humans are not something we can deal with right now. Their levels must be at least 10 or above. Rushing to come into contact with them will not only get yourself killed, but will also expose our position."

"From now on, everyone is prohibited from approaching 76th Street and going out from the east gate of the wetland park until the threat is lifted!"

...

The players were quite obedient.

Although they were curious about what the mutant humans looked like, since the administrator who had GM authority said so, they did not dare to disobey the order.

Being kicked out of the game was a small matter, what if his Favorability towards them was reduced? That would not be good at all.

After briefly inspecting the results of the morning's labor, Chu Guang concentrated on how to deal with the game that he had just hunted.

Although he had eaten this stuff before, he had only bought it at the barbecue stall on Bett Street. He had never handled this kind of stuff himself.

Chu Guang only heard that the newly captured game needed to be bled immediately, otherwise the meat would become fishy and smelly. As for how to bleed them, and what to do after bleeding, he was not quite certain.

In the previous five months, he mainly earned chips by picking up rubbish, and he didn't have much hunting experience.

After all, hunting was too dangerous for solo travelers.

In short, after killing the game, he cut open its main artery. But somehow he felt that the blood was still not drained completely.

While Chu Guang was thinking about it, Gale walked towards him.

"Dear administrator."

"Is there a problem?"

"Can you give me some blood from the prey?"

"Blood? What do you want that thing for?" Chu Guang asked.

Gale explained.

"I want to verify some conjectures. I need to use them."

Chu Guang didn't think much. Holding a short knife, he chopped off a front leg from the mutant hyena in front of him, and threw it into Gale's hand.

"Take it."

"Thank you!"

After Gale thanked him, he left mysteriously.

Although Chu Guang was curious, he didn't ask much.

Around the evening, the players returned to the nursing home one by one. By looking at the expression on Old White's face, he knew that today's gain must not have been small.

Chu Guang wanted to inquire, but before he could ask, Old White couldn't wait to speak.

"Dear administrator, under your wise guidance, the cement kiln at the outpost has been, basically, completed. When the cement is air-dried tomorrow, we can start producing the first batch of cement!"

"Very good."

Chu Guang nodded approvingly and encouragingly.

"Thanks to you, we are one step closer to the great goal of rejuvenating the Federation of People! I hope you continue to work hard and the organization will remember your contributions."

Chu Guang felt that he was becoming more and more proficient in giving them empty promises.

However, the players didn't seem to care whether he was giving empty promises, it seemed that they had explored new pleasures from the labor of rebuilding their homes.

To put it bluntly, wasn’t this what the sandbox games were supposed to be?

It was part of the fun to watch the home become better a little bit. In addition, it was also a lucky thing to be able to experience this epoch-making immersive virtual reality technology first.

Of course, Chu Guang was happy that these players could enjoy it.

Shelter was too poor now, and he really couldn't give them any substantial rewards, so he could only give them empty promises for the time being.

...

After going offline...

The Bull and Horse Club became noisy again.

Recently, many night owls in the group seemed to have changed their active time.

Headed by the "Quit Smoking" brother, the people who used to be active at night got up at five o'clock in the morning just to read the feedback of the group administrators.

Night Ten: [Mutant humans! New forces update! The administrator has encountered a mutant colony on 76th Street! The mutant humans are hostile forces is confirmed! ]

Night Ten, who was the first to go offline, couldn't wait to chat in the group first, igniting the enthusiasm of people in the group.

[Mutant humans?! What do they look like? ]

[Why haven’t the official website been updated yet? ]

[Noice! Since there is a hostile force, and the open beta should not be far away! ]

[God damn it, I really want to play! ]

A series of messages exploded in the group.

Night Ten continued typing.

[I don’t know what they look like, I haven’t seen them either! But don't be so impatient, the official website will definitely update the information about mutant humans, and I am also waiting for news! ]

Quit_smoking: [How about the other three people? Why are you the only one online today? ]

Night Ten: [I don’t know! It seems that Skinny Biatch has gone to study cement. Gale should have a class in the morning. I don’t know about Ample Time, this guy has always been quite mysterious. ]

(Girls_public_enemy_ten_times_a_night has been muted by the group owner for 1 hour.)

Old White: [I told you to stop calling me Skinny Biatch! (Anger)]

Hold_the_sword_execution: [Hahaha, he is asking for it! ]

WC_really_has_mosquitoes: [Excited... I just need to wait for two more days, then this uncle will be able to participate in the test! ]

Tomato_scrambled_eggs: [+1 (funny.jpg)]

Quit_smoking: [Admin, please mute these two show-off fc**ers too! It's so hateful! Obviously, I applied first! QQ]

This_lord_is_arrogant_what_can_you_do: [Alas, you guys are hopeless. ]

Even now, this old brother named "This_lord_is_arrogant_what_can_you_do" still didn't believe in the nonsense of "completely immersive virtual reality online games," let alone "100% real."

He and his fans still believed unswervingly that this was a prank pulled by the administrators.

"There_will_be_ample_time" did not go online in the group today, but on the official website forum, he updated today’s in-game experience——

[Today is the third day of the closed test. The charcoal kiln provided us with a large amount of coal, and with the successful production of wooden ash cement, we built a larger cement kiln under the leadership of Skinny Biatch. If the trial production is successful tomorrow, we will obtain more reliable building materials to build our home. ]

[I have to give a round of applause to the production team. The experience this game brings to me is something that none of the games sold on the market so far can give to me. Especially when the cement kiln is completed, the sense of accomplishment that comes with it is simply overwhelming and irresistible! ]

[There is not much content tested today, mainly testing the sandbox system of the game. ]

[However, it is worth noting that the administrator revealed to us today that there is a mutant human tribe at the end of 76th Street, which has been determined to be a hostile force. All players need to be careful to avoid it. However, the administrator did not disclose more information about the mutant humans. As of now, the official website hasn’t update the mutant human photos either, maybe the plot hasn’t been developed yet. ]

[If there is new information, I will update all the Wasteland Survivors in the post as soon as possible, and please continue to pay attention to this post! ]

"Wasteland Survivors" was what the beta players called themselves.

Although there were only about forty people now, these people were all active—even avid users, and so, in a short while, there were already dozens of replies.

Chu Guang glanced at the screen silently, and did not participate in the discussion among the players.

However, he still took notes of some good opinions, and marked some players with special thoughts on the backend of the website.

If there was a new player recruitment plan, these highly loyal users were the top priority, and those who liked to complain and make a fuss would be given the least priority. Rather than let them come in and make trouble, it was much better to let them hype up the atmosphere in the group.

To put it bluntly, why should he give those online Karens access to the game?

Just because they would leave bad reviews?

At the current testing stage, Wasteland Online was actually more like a private server. And by gradually increasing the requirement of applicants, players who had access to the game would also cherish the opportunities in their hands even more.

As for the open beta phase, that was even easier to explain.

The open beta naturally had a different way of playing.

At that time, he would directly enclose a plot of land as a novice village, without a certain level or honorary title, and they would not even be able to see him.

Chu Guang found that he was getting more and more scheming without knowing it.

When did it start?

Forget it.

There was no point in thinking about this kind of thing.

Turning off the computer, Chu Guang turned on the system and confirmed the rewards for today's daily mission.

[Mission: Cut ten trees, reward: 1 reward point]

[Mission: Kill a mutant, reward: 3 reward points]

"There are few tasks completed today."

Add up to only 4 points.

Chu Guang struggled with thoughts in his heart, and finally couldn't hold it in. He opened the Administrator Allowance and used all 4 bonus points on the primary blind box.

The alloy door opened.

The conveyor belt was rolling.

Looking at the four lollipops lying at the end of the conveyor belt, Chu Guang almost couldn't resist his urge to curse.

However, at this moment, a semi-transparent holographic pop-up window suddenly appeared above one of the lollipops with a pale gold outer packaging.

Just like a label--

[Enhanced Chocolate Lollipop: Strength increase +10%, duration 10 hours. ]

Chu Guang: "?"

Whaaaat?
