This Game Is Too Realistic-Chapter 285.1: Beta 0.1
The atmosphere at the scene was burning with excitement, and voices filled the air. Standing on the third floor, Chu Guang could see many enthusiastic faces. He could even feel the excitement and desire rushing to his face. The tip of his nose was flushed red.
Exhilaration surged in everyone’s heart, and the emotional resonance spread through the crowd.
Chu Guang believed that he wasn’t the only person waiting for the moment.
At 6:00 in the evening, the thunderous noise in the square subsided slightly. Before it could become completely silent, Chu Guang’s solemn and loud voice rang through the air.
"From the moment our gate opened, nearly 200 days and nights have passed. From the endless wilderness to the vast fertile land outside Longevity Town, all we took was half a year to develop everything."
"In this short period, we have driven out mutants, conquered barbarism, defeated the Tide, advanced under artillery fire, and cultivated barren soil."
"We have accomplished what others thought was impossible. It came with sacrifices, but we left no one behind."
"Now we have enough reason to believe that we have the courage and the ability to bring order to farther places!"
"Let’s celebrate this moment. For yourself, and for everyone around you, victory belongs to us!"
"To all those who fought for this land!"
As soon as the resounding voice fell, thunderous applause appeared.
Cheers resounded through the square.
"Long live the administrator!"
"Long live Shelter 404!"
"Long live the Federation of People!"
"Long live Demacia!"
"Long live Emperor of Mankind!"
"Long live - hmm huh huh mmm- let me go, let me finish my sentence!"
Some people chanted the greatness of the shelter and the administrator, while others said some puzzling or even confusing words. Whatever it was, their raw emotions were the same.
People were expressing their excitement in their own ways, showing their emotional resonance amid the cheers.
After the chaos subsided, at the end of the opening ceremony of the celebration, Chu Guang announced the resolution of Shelter 404’s management. After all, in the background setting of Wasteland Online, the authority of the administrator was also granted by the nonexistent organization located at the bottom of the shelter.
Chu Guang continued, "... According to the collective votes of the management of Organization 404, our shelter will fulfil the mission entrusted to us by the old era, and join hands with the compatriots waiting for us on the surface to recast a new alliance in the ruins! We will rebuild an equally prosperous new world, and rebuild our homeland!"
In the name of the alliance, the united front for the revival of human civilization was officially announced!
In order to distinguish it from the Federation of People in the old era, it was called the ‘New Alliance’, or ‘Alliance’ in short.
From the fifth ring in the north of Clearspring City to Remote Creek Town, across the large area of Elm District, the Alliance would form their first Restored Zone. A large piece of land from the outpost to Longevity Town would be merged and managed under the name of Dawn City as the capital of the Alliance.
As for the legislative work and the construction of the system… Everything would also be carried out later. There was no need to go into details during the announcement. There was a lot of work to do, but fortunately, they had a lot of time. People had enough time to explore their paths.
The work was like developing an application. One could first come up with a working BUG, and then slowly adjust it to make it acceptable to most people. Whatever it is, as long as others weren’t uncomfortable, it would be good enough.
A program that satisfied everyone did not exist even in the Prosperity Era, which was extremely rich in productivity and resources. Even big data that had been tempered and honed would occasionally piss a few people off.
At the end of the day, something was better than nothing.
Chaos had been going on in the River Valley Province for 2 centuries, and the everyone there had waited too long for this moment.
Even if the vast majority of the wastelanders did not understand the purpose of creating the alliance, at least not yet, it did not prevent them from cheering.
They needed a reason to unite. A reason that they could declare proudly to the world.
Bucky, who was in armor, stroked the lower edge of the helmet with his index finger, and looked up with interest at Chu Guang who was standing on the third floor of the nursing home.
"The New Alliance... Sounds interesting."
Witnessing the birth of a new force, he felt that his trip to the west was not in vain.
There was no change in the expression on Hyrja’s face. Her mind was full of Hive specimens, DNA, and the research on the Induction Serum.
Having experienced the farce, she had already seen through the senselessness of human nature. She was only interested in things she deemed worthy.
Yin Fang, who was standing at the side, touched the bridge of his nose and said thoughtfully, "That’s unexpected."
Bucky gave him a curious look. "What’s unexpected?"
"I thought he would make himself an emperor." Although he sounded like he was joking, he was actually serious.
Shelter 404 didn’t feel like a real shelter to him, at least not the few shelters he had been to.
Perhaps because of faith, perhaps because of his charisma, the residents obeyed the administrator unconditionally and even worshipped him.
As long as the man wanted, he could do whatever he wanted. Not to mention being an emperor, no one would object to even more exaggerated things.
In fact, based on Yin Fang’s understanding of Chu Guang, the strange man seldom cared about the means in order to achieve his goals. There were some cruel manipulations that could shock him from time to time.
Strangely enough, he didn’t do what Yin Fang thought he would do.
Humans are really complicated creatures...
"Long live the New Alliance! Long live Dawn City!" Standing on the edge of the crowd, Ditway cheered excitedly, even more exaggerated than the actions of the locals, which attracted the attention of others.
Seal, the owner of the Gray Squirrel Clothing Store, looked at him in shock. He came to buy goods, and happened to catch up with the celebration, but he didn’t expect to see an old customer.
"Aren’t you from Boulder Town?"
"What does it matter?" Ditway said nonchalantly with fire in his eyes. "We are all survivors of Clearspring City. We live in the same wasteland. Is there any problem with me cheering? There is no problem at all!"
From Boulder Town?
Nonsense! He didn’t remember labeling himself as a member of Boulder Town.
The most uptodat𝓮 n𝒐vels are published on freёnovelkiss.com.
He was a traveling merchant, a merchant travelling on the wasteland. He was neither born there, nor was he a vassal of the lord. He would follow whoever made him rich, and take the money wherever he could make more money.
It would be a big mistake to think that he was from Boulder Town just because he often did business in Boulder Town!
Ditway wasn’t the only one who thought so. Liszt, who was standing not too far away, also thought the same. However, his mood was far more complicated.
He had a good reputation among the traveling merchants in Boulder Town, and he had traveled around the wasteland for more than 10 years. He had a single goal in life, and that was to live in the inner city.
Recently, his goal wavered a little.
It was pretty incredible.
Liszt had been to many more prosperous places, such as Ideal City in the Among Clouds Province, which was like paradise.
Never once had he thought about spending the rest of his life there.
The thinking process of people there was completely different from his own. Even from simple business contracts, he could tell that they were people belonging to different worlds.
If he bought all the money he earned to live in Ideal City, the most likely end for him would be to kicked out of the city after spending everything he had. Those people who lived there never cared about being tolerant of others and he couldn’t integrate himself into their culture in the slightest.
Things were different in Dawn City. Whether it was a refugee or a traveling merchant, as long as they abided by the local laws, they would be accepted.
It was the same with Boulder Town, the outer city at least. However, it also gave off a completely different vibe.
Liszt couldn’t describe the feeling.
Whatever it was, things were different.
Xia Yan, who was standing at the entrance of the Weapon Store, stared at the blue exoframe in a daze, her thoughts drifting away.
Xiaoyu, whose neck was tilted to the side, swayed her calf in excitement. She eventually stretched to look around curiously while chewing the plastic stick in her mouth.
She couldn’t understand what her Big Brother Chu was saying, but she could feel that everyone was very happy.
In conclusion, something great must have happened!
Tail sitting on Roshan’s shoulder, looked enviously in the direction of the Weapon Shop. She muttered continuously to herself, "Darn it… Why is Boss Xia carrying Xiaoyu?! I also want to be mounted by Xiaoyu!"
Sisi gave her a weird look. "HUUUUH?! Am I supposed to call the police now?!”
During the great celebration, a server announcement was also updated in the players’ VMs and on the official website.
