Without Kevin's reminder, Gangu knew that those people were difficult to deal with.
Two consecutive battles in one day, two consecutive losses, knocked out nearly forty of his men and a quarter of his ammunition, and exploded a light pickup truck.
If you don't leave, I'm afraid that even the rest of you will have to confess here!
Just when Gangu took the remnants of his troops and fled the northern suburbs of Spring City at dusk, the young players who had just gone offline were still discussing the "Medal System" launched by this soft update.
In fact, there were medals in the past. After each campaign, the team or individual with outstanding performance could get one.
However, that kind of medal does not have a physical body, and the display on the personal page is just a number, not even a pattern.
Like now, not only have specific medal styles, but also receive physical medals in the game, which is the first time in "Wasteland OL"!
Proof of the victor of an epic battle!
This is no more than the krypton gold skin has more cards!
At this time, many players were surprised to find that the medals they had received before were all upgraded to a gear-shaped icon after the server announcement.
If you look carefully, the total number of teeth on the inner and outer two rings is exactly 404.
After the medal is selected, there is a line of description——
[ We set out from here! ]
The medal system has been greatly changed!
However, this basic medal seems to have only added patterns and collection elements, and attached a version number to the medal. There is still no entity, only an electronic version.
The change seems to be only to distinguish it from the special medal. But even so, for the absolute majority of combat professional players, it can be regarded as a surprise.
What if?
What if the operator fills in the hole in a future version? For example, add an in-game physical medal to the previously issued medal, or unlock a hidden achievement when the medal reaches a certain number.
It is not impossible!
Night Commander: "I got it! The 'Gear' medal in ordinary campaigns is a whiteboard medal, so there is only an electronic version, not a physical one!"
Keeping People Under The Knife: "One more thing, the unlocking condition for the 'Shield' medal is to win the final victory in the defense mission with epic difficulty!"
Quit Smoking: "Wait, that is to say, there are similar achievements for Assault, Support, or Raid missions? (つω)つ"
Ward's Beriberi Levin: "A blind guess, if there is a silver medal, there should be a bronze medal, a gold medal, and a diamond medal."
Yamasaa, I Want To Go To The Toilet: "Let's talk about another matter I'm not used to it."
Big Eyes in Debt: "Do you think there will be a military rank system in the future? (‿)"
Mole In The Hole: "It's possible if there are more people, but it doesn't seem necessary if there are fewer people. Besides, there is an identity system now, and a separate military rank system for the soldier profession, so not all players will go into the soldier profession Already? However, it is still recommended that the operator add a "Command" skill to the skill proficiency, so that it can increase the skill level like shooting and fighting, so as to deceive the big guys who like to lead the team, so as to save future generations. There are too many, and those who don’t know how to command will run to grab the captain’s position, and if they grab it, they will go on an outing with the formation. ╮(╯_╰)╭”
Irene: "I suspect you're connoting chicken man. (^‿^)"
Killing Chicken At Midnight: "¯\_(ツ)_/¯???"
The Boy On The Construction Site: "Hahaha, let's me makes sense! This kind of person who is afraid of being blamed likes to hang out with the infantry team, but he has to give his thighs a little sweetness. But don't give too much, or it will affect the balance. (｡•̀ᴗ-)"
Get Up Ten Times A Night: "Planner: I'm copying, I'm copying. (◠‿◕)"
...
That night.
After the off-line peak.
Lucius, who returned to the shelter, glanced at the discussion posts about medals in the forum.
When he swiped to the first floor of the little brother Walker, Lucius chuckled.
Copy? Can there be some pattern?
The planner has heard the voices of the players, isn't this something we should be grateful for? If you don't read a single post, you're still spending your contribution points as money!
"In the contribution points and regional reputation, a large part of the points are actually military merits, and it is really inappropriate to set an additional military rank."
Lucius touched his chin and said after thinking for a long time.
"...However, it is really necessary to increase the proficiency of command skills."
He copied and pasted Brother Mole's post into the document, and Lucius wrote a line of words at the back.
[ Modification: Increased skill proficiency to "Command". According to the difficulty level, scale, casualties, and war score of the battle, the proficiency of the "Command" skill acquired by the player in the game is calculated. ]
Afterwards, he will ask Popo to help design a calculation formula, which can be regarded as increasing the team leader's game experience.
After all, as many players in the forum have reflected, leading a team is a very troublesome thing. It is everyone's credit for playing well, and the captain will be blamed for not playing well.
The proficiency of command skills can intuitively reflect a player's organizational ability.
The boss builds a team and other players are always rushing to build a team. The team that collapses is often not enough people in the end, and is automatically merged by the system in the end, and the team leader is voted for.
In the future, players with high command and many medals should become resources for the big guilds to fight for, or be the guild leaders themselves.
This is also a hidden benefit.
After reading the memorial, Lucius turned to the fan section of the forum, intending to see how his design proposal for public bidding was going.
To his surprise, many big touches have already been handed in the papers!
"Is it all so fast?"
Lucius was planning to take a look at the brains of his little players, but he clicked on a post casually, and almost didn't spit it out just after looking at it.
This talented guy directly painted his face on the silver coin!
And the painting is not a side profile, but a full face portrait!
It's not blowing or black, and the painting is quite similar, which directly increases the appearance of the silver coin by a large amount.
However, on the other hand, because of the similarity, Lucius even felt that it would be no problem to find him with this coin.
"Good guy, is it because you think I've lived too long?"
It's not a good thing to be too showy in the wasteland. After all, in this world, there are far more lunatics than normal people.
Very well drawn!
Don't do that next time.
Lucius wondered, when the People's Federation is revived and the wasteland era is over, it will be no problem for him to come to receive the credit again.
As for now, it's better to take it easy and law low-key.
In addition to painting his head, there are also some weird designs. Some painted small fish, and some painted crows and vines... These are relatively normal, and the abnormal Lucius couldn't help but want to lock the post.
After shopping around, Lucius found that the most reliable one was really Brother Mole.
Since this guy was banned last time, he changed his past hobbies and stopped drawing those adult books. Instead, he changed to draw some serious things with depth and connotation.
For example, this silver coin.
In his design, the silver coin has an artistic "N" on the obverse that looks the same as the number "1" in the game.
On the back is the pincers of a split claw crab. An "F" is outlined around the edge of the coin. The rows of lines look like a forked olive branch.
The edge of the coin is designed with anti-counterfeiting teeth. There are 202 thick teeth and 202 thin teeth, which add up to exactly 404. The spacing is very small, which increases the difficulty of re-engraving.
Since the silver coin itself weighs 10g, 100 silver coins are equivalent to one kilogram. Even if someone solves the problem of materials, craftsmanship, and successfully counterfeit silver coins, they will be discovered quickly when they are in circulation.
The guards on guard will check the silver coins carried by everyone who enters the survivor settlement, and the follow-up market will also increase inspections and other supervisory personnel. It is almost impossible to bring a large number of counterfeit silver coins into the survivor settlement under the shelter 404 is impossible.
"404, Not Found, river crab... yes." After reading the post, Lucius's eyes lit up, and he immediately marked Brother Mole's post.
The overall design is grand and beautiful, with all the elements but not complicated, and there are certain thresholds in manufacturing.
If there is no other better way to design until I wake up tomorrow morning.
Then use this set!
...
Next morning.
The little players in shelter 404 rushed out of the sanatorium one after another in the early morning sun.
Almost when the first batch of players reached the surface, everyone in the server received a pop-up window.
[ Full Server Announcement: Congratulations to the second-generation currency design scheme of the player "Mole In The Hole", which has been adopted by the official bank of Shelter No. 404! ]
[ Because the player chose to make the achievement public, the achievement will be entered into the Hall of Fame! ]
The players who had just stood on the square saw these two messages, and they were instantly choked with lemons.
"Damn! Shady!"
"That's right! It's too dark! I even drew the manager's head on it, but it didn't pass!"
"Damn it, let a stinky mouse get the mysterious gift of Yuki!"
The real mouse who had just come out of the nursing home [ Stronger Than Others ] raised his head in bewilderment when he heard the curses from the players around him.
"What? Who's calling me?"
The Dog Took All The Good Names: "Didn't call you! We're talking about Mole!"
Stronger Than Others: "???"
Can't stand it anymore, Brother Mole couldn't help yelling.
"Hey! Do you have a conscience, okay? My design plan has all the elements, so why not use mine?"
Fast And The Curious: "I don't care! Anyway, my plan is useless, it's a shady scene!"
Mole In The Hole: "@#%!"
...
Back to the main topic. Although Mole was envied and hated by others, everyone was still very curious about what the mysterious gift was.
Surrounded by a group of people, Brother Mole came to the gate of the bank and unlocked the legendary mysterious gift from Yuki——
"Thank you for your contribution to everyone in the shelter!"
Yuki stood up from behind the counter and expressed his thanks seriously.
This unexpected bow made Brother Mole panic. Only those who are thanked know what it feels like.
"No need, it's just a matter of raising your hands..."
Of course, the so-called mysterious gift is not just a thank you.
After that, Yuki found a golden coin from the drawer and handed it to him.
That coin was uniquely styled, with an "α" pattern painted on the obverse and the number 1 written next to it—seemingly commemorating the Alpha edition that was coming to an end.
On the back is the door of the shelter - the pattern is exactly the same as the previously updated "Gear" medal.
"We set out from here!"
Mole suddenly felt a little dazed.
Perhaps this is the second-generation currency that the operator originally intended to use.
Realizing this, Mole suddenly felt an indescribable emotion in his heart.
His actions changed the game.
Although only a little bit...
The players gathered around to watch the excitement, but they didn't have so many mental activities. Seeing that there were no other rewards, they all dispersed in dismay.
"Hey, I'm talking about a mysterious gift, it's a commemorative coin."
"There is no attribute bonus, it's scattered."
Hearing these short-sighted remarks, Mole gave the group a blank look.
"You guys know shit!"
This kind of out-of-print commemorative coin with only one issued in the whole server, can it be the same as the general commemorative coin?
There will be more public beta testers in the future, as long as the official does not engage in any "Return to factory" activities, the value of this coin is worth a house of silver coins at least!
Can the value of collection be summed up by the phrase "Commemorative coin"?
Carefully put the coin in his pocket, Mole planned to put it in the warehouse for a while, and put it in an insurance policy by the way.
This will be his lucky coin from now on.
No matter how much it is worth, he will not change it!
...
A new day starts with the demand list and daily tasks swiped by the warehouse manager.
The little players who received the mission picked up their weapons or tools one after another, and headed towards the wasteland under the rising sun.
But……
This is just some players.
Just when some players have already started working, some players are currently stuck in the underground of the nursing home.
I saw that in front of the elevator leading to the surface, a long line had already lined up from the door of the elevator to the door of the shelter!
Looking at the sea of people in front of the elevator, Yaya couldn't help but sigh with emotion.
"There are too many people."
The cat ears on his head moved, and Cute As Duck, who was also lining up next to him, sighed softly.
"Social terror has begun."
Tail not far away stared at the cat's ears for a long time, and wanted to reach out to grab it, but was stopped by Sisi.
Night Commander, wearing an exoskeleton, stretched his neck and looked forward. Impatiently waiting, he couldn't help but yelled.
"Can the one in front hurry up! I'm in a hurry to charge up!"
The people in front of the line didn't want to pay attention to it, but when they saw that it was Night Commander, they immediately turned back unceremoniously.
Martin: "Hurry up, hurry up, hurry up with a hammer? I don't want to hurry up?"
Richest Elf King: "That's right, you think the elevator is slow, and I think the elevator is too slow! A day can last up to 16 hours, and the queue is almost half an hour!"
The young boy who was carrying the fishing gear was shocked when he heard these words.
"Damn, 16 hours full, are you a devil? Don't you have any work to do in real world!"
Can a fishing simulator play for 16 hours?!
Richest Elf King gave him a strange look.
"Otherwise? Isn't it basic practice to fill up the daily tasks and then refresh the warehouse? If you don't care, where can you get the money to buy guns, where can you get the sequence level, if you don't care, how can you become stronger! I don't like it for 16 hours. Less, you should cancel the fatigue value setting, and I can spend the entire day!"
Tabletop Cop heard it and couldn't help shaking his head.
"Too curly, too curly!"
As for him? Just play a game!
Although he is also online 16 hours these days...
...
Standing on the third floor of the nursing home, Lucius and Popo overlooked the hustle and bustle of the square together.
Although he didn't hear the complaints from the players below the elevator, Lucius could already feel the pressure brought by the increase in the number of servers from the elongated line.
Fortunately, he still reserved some space and didn't open the remaining 300 cans.
Otherwise, with 1100 people, the scene would be terrifying!
Popi raised the camera and looked at Lucius who was standing aside.
"Master, Popo feels that the capacity of the elevator is not enough."
Lucius nodded in empathy.
"Indeed, we have to think of a way."
Although the maze on the B3 floor diverted a group of players, there were still four to five hundred people queuing up in front of the only elevator leading to the underground during the peak hours of going online and offline every day.
At the most exaggerated time, the team can even line up from the elevator to the door of the buffer room.
In fact, if you think about it, even if the elevator can hold 20 people in one trip, it will take more than 20 round trips to send all the players in line to the surface.
In fact, if the players bring equipment, the limit of a trip may be about 12 to 15 people.
If it wasn't for saving files, many players would simply live outside.
Now Lucius has two plans. One is to demolish the nursing home, make a hole in the place, and build a bigger elevator, which can transport more than 100 people at a time.
Another solution is to abandon the elevator, dig a slope hundreds of meters long, and insert it obliquely from the surface to the door of the shelter.
However, the threshold for these two plans is a bit high. Whether it is demolishing the nursing home and digging a well 20 to 30 meters deep, or digging a "Basement entrance" hundreds of meters long, it is not an easy task.
There seems to be only one feasible way right now, and that is to build a few more dormant pods and send them to the surface, making the shelter a real resurrection point, and the save point on the surface.
At present, 67 units of the dormant cabin have been produced, except for the 30 units allocated to the industrial zone, the rest are all sent to Starwood Farm.
Lucius intends to increase the dormancy cabin quota of Starwood Farm to 100 before the next version, as a public save point for players.
As for whether there is a more convenient archiving method...
To be honest, Lucius also hopes to have such a method, but unfortunately, there is no better solution at present.
Scanning and recording the development progress of gene sequences, although it is a matter of one sentence, is actually a very complicated process, because it involves a popular and cutting-edge research field in DNA research - epigenetics.
The mainstream view is that humans have 20,000 to 30,000 genes, but not all of these genes are expressed, and most of them are like commented out codes in computer programs.
How to selectively express specific genes to produce desired traits is actually more complicated than simply modifying a specific gene.
Although the genes stored in the shelter are all excellent varieties that have been screened in the pre-war civilization gene bank, it is clear that even the first generation managers have not mastered the method to fully express these genes.
If it can be done, it is at least a "Singularity" level of technology.
However, although the first-generation manager did not complete this work, he provided his successor with a fairly reliable set of "Solutions" before his death.
That is, let the clones actively evolve under natural selection, and then record the selective expression process of their DNA through scientific means, and simulate the process in the next clone synthesis, and gradually approach the final 100% by growing again and again.
The scanning principle of the dormant cabin is the same as that of the training cabin. It needs to search the whole body cells, and this takes about 3 to 5 hours, which can be completed when the clone is sleeping.
It is currently impossible to archive files anytime, anywhere.
Fortunately, compared to the synthesis of clones, the scanning function is not very energy-intensive, so the rated power of the dormant cabin is much lower than that of the cultivation cabin.
Only one 100KW generator is needed to meet the operation of 100 dormant cabins, which can be said to be quite economical.
"The generators are almost running out, and the industrial zone is a big power consumer. We have to find a way to solve the energy problem."
The entire nuclear fusion generator is not realistic, and the fusion battery is too expensive and cannot be charged, so one piece is less. Although the fuel rods are durable enough, they are hard to find, and the electricity in the shelter cannot be stolen.
Currently the best way to use wood generators.
Everything is lacking in the wasteland, except wood.
Mosquito and the others had produced all the steam engines before, and Lucius felt that the problem was not a big problem if they worked hard to produce the steam engine as well.
In fact, the light trucks of the Legion use the pot camel machine, which can be moved with wood, which is very convenient. The life professional players in the new industrial area are already researching imitation, and it is said that there are already some eyebrows.
"Hopefully this can be done before the next invasion of the Bone Chew Tribe."
Lucius intends to set two small goals for the players.
One is to build a 1MW-class thermal power station in the new industrial zone, the outpost, and the long-term farm respectively, and initially enter the electric age.
The other is to solve the problem of the engine and be able to independently produce vehicles.
Not to mention a motorized unit coming out immediately, even if we can get a few more trucks.
Four transport lines, only nine trucks are available. To project troops a little further away, the cars in the industrial zone had to be vacated in advance.
This capacity is too tight.
Sitting on the third floor of the nursing home, Lucius watched his little players through the hummingbird drone.
Among them, the cow and horse team has started a new round of raids on the greenhouse site, and the current progress has reached the B5 floor, which is very close to the B9 floor.
Brother Mole's team also entered the greenhouse ruins, but their strategy is to go up instead of down. Currently, they are on the third floor, and there are still two floors left to attack.
Mosquito on the edge of the industrial area is testing the improved rocket, trying to make the rocket more powerful, and a fat mouse is following him.
Brother Yamasaa and Levin of No. 81 Steel Factory completely abandoned the dream of 88mm large-caliber anti-aircraft guns and turned to research on 20mm small-caliber anti-aircraft guns, just like Mosquito gave up small-caliber jab rockets .
Although the caliber of 20mm is a bit small, as long as the number of barrels is enough, the power is not small!
If the quadruple pack is not enough.
Then go to the twelve-pack!
Light up the whole sky with bullet rain!
Seeing his little players working so hard, Lucius was very relieved. With more and more talents in the server, there are fewer and fewer things that need to be done by himself.
Back in the day, when I went to a neighbor’s house to buy food, I had to go there myself.
Now that he needs to get something, there are players running errands for him.
...
It was past noon.
The snow outside the window was getting bigger and bigger, and the visibility outside was getting lower and lower.
At first, I could see 10 meters away, but now I am standing on the third floor, and I can't even see the downstairs clearly.
To be on the safe side, Lucius issued a server announcement to remind players to pay attention to the blizzard weather, and asked Popo to take the drone back.
This little guy is too small and not very powerful. Lucius worried that the wind would get stronger and blow it directly into the lake.
The camera looked at the snow that was getting bigger and bigger outside the window, and Popo said worriedly.
"Master, the snow outside seems to be getting bigger and bigger."
"I can see it."
Staring at the snow outside the window, Lucius always had a bad feeling.
There are currently more than 600 survivors gathered at the New United Gas Station. According to the plan, the survivors from the Winter Willow Camp will arrive at Starwood Farm at noon today.
If the impact of this snowstorm exceeds expectations, subsequent evacuation plans will undoubtedly be severely hindered.
At this moment, Lucius suddenly received a pop-up window on his VM.
The message was from Old Luka.
Glancing at the screen, Lucius's expression changed slightly, and he immediately got up and walked towards the power armor parked beside him.
Popo turned the camera and looked at him.
"Master?"
"I have to go to Starwood Farm."
Entering from behind the power armor, Lucius, who had put on the equipment, continued speaking concisely.
"I'll leave it to you here."
Without Kevin's reminder, Gangu knew that those people were difficult to deal with.
Two consecutive battles in one day, two consecutive losses, knocked out nearly forty of his men and a quarter of his ammunition, and exploded a light pickup truck.
If you don't leave, I'm afraid that even the rest of you will have to confess here!
Just when Gangu took the remnants of his troops and fled the northern suburbs of Spring City at dusk, the young players who had just gone offline were still discussing the "Medal System" launched by this soft update.
In fact, there were medals in the past. After each campaign, the team or individual with outstanding performance could get one.

Proof of the victor of an epic battle!
This is no more than the krypton gold skin has more cards!
At this time, many players were surprised to find that the medals they had received before were all upgraded to a gear-shaped icon after the server announcement.
If you look carefully, the total number of teeth on the inner and outer two rings is exactly 404.
After the medal is selected, there is a line of description——
[ We set out from here! ]

"What? Who's calling me?"
The Dog Took All The Good Names: "Didn't call you! We're talking about Mole!"
Stronger Than Others: "???"
Can't stand it anymore, Brother Mole couldn't help yelling.
"Hey! Do you have a conscience, okay? My design plan has all the elements, so why not use mine?"
Fast And The Curious: "I don't care! Anyway, my plan is useless, it's a shady scene!"
Mole In The Hole: "@#%!"
...
Back to the main topic. Although Mole was envied and hated by others, everyone was still very curious about what the mysterious gift was.
Surrounded by a group of people, Brother Mole came to the gate of the bank and unlocked the legendary mysterious gift from Yuki——
"Thank you for your contribution to everyone in the shelter!"
Yuki stood up from behind the counter and expressed his thanks seriously.
This unexpected bow made Brother Mole panic. Only those who are thanked know what it feels like.
"No need, it's just a matter of raising your hands..."
Of course, the so-called mysterious gift is not just a thank you.
After that, Yuki found a golden coin from the drawer and handed it to him.
That coin was uniquely styled, with an "α" pattern painted on the obverse and the number 1 written next to it—seemingly commemorating the Alpha edition that was coming to an end.
On the back is the door of the shelter - the pattern is exactly the same as the previously updated "Gear" medal.
"We set out from here!"
Mole suddenly felt a little dazed.
Perhaps this is the second-generation currency that the operator originally intended to use.
Realizing this, Mole suddenly felt an indescribable emotion in his heart.
His actions changed the game.
Although only a little bit...
The players gathered around to watch the excitement, but they didn't have so many mental activities. Seeing that there were no other rewards, they all dispersed in dismay.
"Hey, I'm talking about a mysterious gift, it's a commemorative coin."
"There is no attribute bonus, it's scattered."
Hearing these short-sighted remarks, Mole gave the group a blank look.
"You guys know shit!"
This kind of out-of-print commemorative coin with only one issued in the whole server, can it be the same as the general commemorative coin?
There will be more public beta testers in the future, as long as the official does not engage in any "Return to factory" activities, the value of this coin is worth a house of silver coins at least!
Can the value of collection be summed up by the phrase "Commemorative coin"?
Carefully put the coin in his pocket, Mole planned to put it in the warehouse for a while, and put it in an insurance policy by the way.
This will be his lucky coin from now on.
No matter how much it is worth, he will not change it!
...
A new day starts with the demand list and daily tasks swiped by the warehouse manager.
The little players who received the mission picked up their weapons or tools one after another, and headed towards the wasteland under the rising sun.
But……
This is just some players.
Just when some players have already started working, some players are currently stuck in the underground of the nursing home.
I saw that in front of the elevator leading to the surface, a long line had already lined up from the door of the elevator to the door of the shelter!
Looking at the sea of people in front of the elevator, Yaya couldn't help but sigh with emotion.
"There are too many people."
The cat ears on his head moved, and Cute As Duck, who was also lining up next to him, sighed softly.
"Social terror has begun."
Tail not far away stared at the cat's ears for a long time, and wanted to reach out to grab it, but was stopped by Sisi.
Night Commander, wearing an exoskeleton, stretched his neck and looked forward. Impatiently waiting, he couldn't help but yelled.
"Can the one in front hurry up! I'm in a hurry to charge up!"
The people in front of the line didn't want to pay attention to it, but when they saw that it was Night Commander, they immediately turned back unceremoniously.
Martin: "Hurry up, hurry up, hurry up with a hammer? I don't want to hurry up?"
Richest Elf King: "That's right, you think the elevator is slow, and I think the elevator is too slow! A day can last up to 16 hours, and the queue is almost half an hour!"
The young boy who was carrying the fishing gear was shocked when he heard these words.
"Damn, 16 hours full, are you a devil? Don't you have any work to do in real world!"
Can a fishing simulator play for 16 hours?!
Richest Elf King gave him a strange look.
"Otherwise? Isn't it basic practice to fill up the daily tasks and then refresh the warehouse? If you don't care, where can you get the money to buy guns, where can you get the sequence level, if you don't care, how can you become stronger! I don't like it for 16 hours. Less, you should cancel the fatigue value setting, and I can spend the entire day!"
Tabletop Cop heard it and couldn't help shaking his head.
"Too curly, too curly!"
As for him? Just play a game!
Although he is also online 16 hours these days...
...
Standing on the third floor of the nursing home, Lucius and Popo overlooked the hustle and bustle of the square together.
Although he didn't hear the complaints from the players below the elevator, Lucius could already feel the pressure brought by the increase in the number of servers from the elongated line.
Fortunately, he still reserved some space and didn't open the remaining 300 cans.
Otherwise, with 1100 people, the scene would be terrifying!
Popi raised the camera and looked at Lucius who was standing aside.
"Master, Popo feels that the capacity of the elevator is not enough."
Lucius nodded in empathy.
"Indeed, we have to think of a way."
Although the maze on the B3 floor diverted a group of players, there were still four to five hundred people queuing up in front of the only elevator leading to the underground during the peak hours of going online and offline every day.
At the most exaggerated time, the team can even line up from the elevator to the door of the buffer room.
In fact, if you think about it, even if the elevator can hold 20 people in one trip, it will take more than 20 round trips to send all the players in line to the surface.
In fact, if the players bring equipment, the limit of a trip may be about 12 to 15 people.
If it wasn't for saving files, many players would simply live outside.
Now Lucius has two plans. One is to demolish the nursing home, make a hole in the place, and build a bigger elevator, which can transport more than 100 people at a time.
Another solution is to abandon the elevator, dig a slope hundreds of meters long, and insert it obliquely from the surface to the door of the shelter.
However, the threshold for these two plans is a bit high. Whether it is demolishing the nursing home and digging a well 20 to 30 meters deep, or digging a "Basement entrance" hundreds of meters long, it is not an easy task.
There seems to be only one feasible way right now, and that is to build a few more dormant pods and send them to the surface, making the shelter a real resurrection point, and the save point on the surface.
At present, 67 units of the dormant cabin have been produced, except for the 30 units allocated to the industrial zone, the rest are all sent to Starwood Farm.
Lucius intends to increase the dormancy cabin quota of Starwood Farm to 100 before the next version, as a public save point for players.
As for whether there is a more convenient archiving method...
To be honest, Lucius also hopes to have such a method, but unfortunately, there is no better solution at present.
Scanning and recording the development progress of gene sequences, although it is a matter of one sentence, is actually a very complicated process, because it involves a popular and cutting-edge research field in DNA research - epigenetics.
The mainstream view is that humans have 20,000 to 30,000 genes, but not all of these genes are expressed, and most of them are like commented out codes in computer programs.
How to selectively express specific genes to produce desired traits is actually more complicated than simply modifying a specific gene.
Although the genes stored in the shelter are all excellent varieties that have been screened in the pre-war civilization gene bank, it is clear that even the first generation managers have not mastered the method to fully express these genes.
If it can be done, it is at least a "Singularity" level of technology.
However, although the first-generation manager did not complete this work, he provided his successor with a fairly reliable set of "Solutions" before his death.
That is, let the clones actively evolve under natural selection, and then record the selective expression process of their DNA through scientific means, and simulate the process in the next clone synthesis, and gradually approach the final 100% by growing again and again.
The scanning principle of the dormant cabin is the same as that of the training cabin. It needs to search the whole body cells, and this takes about 3 to 5 hours, which can be completed when the clone is sleeping.
It is currently impossible to archive files anytime, anywhere.
Fortunately, compared to the synthesis of clones, the scanning function is not very energy-intensive, so the rated power of the dormant cabin is much lower than that of the cultivation cabin.
Only one 100KW generator is needed to meet the operation of 100 dormant cabins, which can be said to be quite economical.
"The generators are almost running out, and the industrial zone is a big power consumer. We have to find a way to solve the energy problem."
The entire nuclear fusion generator is not realistic, and the fusion battery is too expensive and cannot be charged, so one piece is less. Although the fuel rods are durable enough, they are hard to find, and the electricity in the shelter cannot be stolen.
Currently the best way to use wood generators.
Everything is lacking in the wasteland, except wood.
Mosquito and the others had produced all the steam engines before, and Lucius felt that the problem was not a big problem if they worked hard to produce the steam engine as well.
In fact, the light trucks of the Legion use the pot camel machine, which can be moved with wood, which is very convenient. The life professional players in the new industrial area are already researching imitation, and it is said that there are already some eyebrows.
"Hopefully this can be done before the next invasion of the Bone Chew Tribe."
Lucius intends to set two small goals for the players.
One is to build a 1MW-class thermal power station in the new industrial zone, the outpost, and the long-term farm respectively, and initially enter the electric age.
The other is to solve the problem of the engine and be able to independently produce vehicles.
Not to mention a motorized unit coming out immediately, even if we can get a few more trucks.
Four transport lines, only nine trucks are available. To project troops a little further away, the cars in the industrial zone had to be vacated in advance.
This capacity is too tight.
Sitting on the third floor of the nursing home, Lucius watched his little players through the hummingbird drone.
Among them, the cow and horse team has started a new round of raids on the greenhouse site, and the current progress has reached the B5 floor, which is very close to the B9 floor.
Brother Mole's team also entered the greenhouse ruins, but their strategy is to go up instead of down. Currently, they are on the third floor, and there are still two floors left to attack.
Mosquito on the edge of the industrial area is testing the improved rocket, trying to make the rocket more powerful, and a fat mouse is following him.
Brother Yamasaa and Levin of No. 81 Steel Factory completely abandoned the dream of 88mm large-caliber anti-aircraft guns and turned to research on 20mm small-caliber anti-aircraft guns, just like Mosquito gave up small-caliber jab rockets .
Although the caliber of 20mm is a bit small, as long as the number of barrels is enough, the power is not small!
If the quadruple pack is not enough.
Then go to the twelve-pack!
Light up the whole sky with bullet rain!
Seeing his little players working so hard, Lucius was very relieved. With more and more talents in the server, there are fewer and fewer things that need to be done by himself.
Back in the day, when I went to a neighbor’s house to buy food, I had to go there myself.
Now that he needs to get something, there are players running errands for him.
...
It was past noon.
The snow outside the window was getting bigger and bigger, and the visibility outside was getting lower and lower.
At first, I could see 10 meters away, but now I am standing on the third floor, and I can't even see the downstairs clearly.
To be on the safe side, Lucius issued a server announcement to remind players to pay attention to the blizzard weather, and asked Popo to take the drone back.
This little guy is too small and not very powerful. Lucius worried that the wind would get stronger and blow it directly into the lake.
The camera looked at the snow that was getting bigger and bigger outside the window, and Popo said worriedly.
"Master, the snow outside seems to be getting bigger and bigger."
"I can see it."
Staring at the snow outside the window, Lucius always had a bad feeling.
There are currently more than 600 survivors gathered at the New United Gas Station. According to the plan, the survivors from the Winter Willow Camp will arrive at Starwood Farm at noon today.
If the impact of this snowstorm exceeds expectations, subsequent evacuation plans will undoubtedly be severely hindered.
At this moment, Lucius suddenly received a pop-up window on his VM.
The message was from Old Luka.
Glancing at the screen, Lucius's expression changed slightly, and he immediately got up and walked towards the power armor parked beside him.
Popo turned the camera and looked at him.
"Master?"
"I have to go to Starwood Farm."
Entering from behind the power armor, Lucius, who had put on the equipment, continued speaking concisely.
"I'll leave it to you here."
