It's getting dark earlier and earlier. It was only after 6:00 p.m. in the wasteland, and the entire city and forest had already darkened.
In order to guard against sneak attacks, the players set up torches outside the walls of the base, put mixing lines in the woods, and hung warning bells.
After a while, it will be dawn in reality, and many people will have to go to work during the day. In the end, there were only 20 players left, and the remaining 30 chose to go offline. However, among the 30 offline players, half of them said they were free in the afternoon, and they would come back after noon. It happened to rotate with players who were online in "the first half of the night".
Lucius, who took Popo back to the refuge temporarily to charge, and sent away a group of players, sat on a chair in the resident hall, opened the system panel, and confirmed his points.
Counting the 100 points rewarded for completing the generator side mission, his current reward points have reached 122 points, just enough to buy a high-level blind box, two intermediate blind boxes, and two lollipops. In addition, as Lucius expected, with the completion of the last side mission, he really triggered a new mission to open the B2 floor of the refuge——
【 Mission: Destroy the Bloody Hand clan entrenched in the abandoned tire factory in the north of the refuge.
Type: Branch line
Reward: Shelter No.404 B2 Floor Permission 】
"...Is that what you mean by solving the threat of external forces before you can open the next layer of the shelter?"
It's quite reasonable. I hope the next floor can find some good things, at least not as bare as the B1 floor, with nothing but 100 training cabins and a computer.
"System, open the manager's allowance!"
The light blue holographic screen changed out of thin air, and three options appeared in front of Lucius. Without any hesitation, Lucius chose a high-level blind box, two intermediate blind boxes, and threw the remaining two reward points on the primary blind box.
With a slight tremor, the alloy door embedded in the wall opened.
Lucius froze when he saw the big guy on the conveyor belt.
This……
Is it a weapon? I saw a long-handled Warhammer with a square head and a square brain, standing upside down on the conveyor belt steadily.
The alloy forged silver handle is about the height of a person, and the hammer head is a bright silver metal arc, about the size of a human face. The body of the hammer is inlaid with two circles of sunken metal grooves, one in front and one in the back, and the two circles are connected by a steep carved texture, which looks quite sci-fi.
However, even with the method of empathy and trying to understand the taste of the first generation of managers, it is really difficult for Lucius to associate this thing with weapons.
Do you want him to fight hand-to-hand with a hammer? It doesn't matter if you change to an ax or a javelin, it's a ghost if you don't get smashed into a sieve by such a cumbersome big guy!
Going forward, Lucius held the handle of the hammer with a strange expression. He thought it would be heavy, but he didn't expect to lift it up as soon as he raised his hand.
"What?"
Although the weight is not light, it is not as bulky as imagined, only about 20 to 30 kilograms. Lucius tapped the surface of the hammer with his finger, but he didn't feel that it was hollow.
Is it made of aluminum alloy? Or titanium alloy...or some special material he didn't understand.
At this time, Lucius suddenly noticed that there were three touch buttons on the handle of the hammer. Out of curiosity, he reached out his index finger and touched one of the buttons.
There was only a slight buzzing, and before Lucius realized what was going on, high-intensity airflow gushed out from the four sides of the hammer body without warning, and spewed backward.
A huge thrust pushed the hammer forward.
Lucius, who was holding the hammer in both hands, almost lost his grip, and almost hit the alloy door with the hammer, so scared that he quickly released his index finger from the button.
"F*ck?!"
Is this hammer equipped with nitrogen to accelerate?
Lucius was thinking this with a surprised face, and the translucent light blue holographic window popped out of his field of vision, floating beside the hammer. Like a label.
【 Item: Nitrogen Powered Hammer 】
【 Explanation: Functions such as defense, offense, and mobility are realized by interfering with the nitrogen flow rate on the armor surface through a special force field.
In A mode, a vortex nitrogen flow can be formed on the top of the power hammer, thereby covering an umbrella-shaped defense surface with a maximum radius of 1m, deflecting and reducing the kinetic energy of the projectile, and having a good defense against light weapons.
In B mode, nitrogen can be compressed at the front of the power hammer to form a nitrogen armor with a thickness of 2~3mm, and it will be released by blasting after the nitrogen armor contacts the target.
In C mode, high-pressure nitrogen flow can be injected to the rear of the power hammer to provide directional acceleration.
This product is recommended to be used with assault-type power armor. The B mode can have a good destructive effect on light armored targets, obstacles, and bunkers. 】
【 Note: Since there is no built-in gas storage device, it cannot be used in vacuum and underwater environments without nitrogen. 】
According to the instructions provided by the system, Lucius tried it briefly, and finally figured out how this thing works. To put it simply, some kind of device built into the hammer can interfere with nearby nitrogen molecules.
A mode is equivalent to the defense mode, which can add a shield in front of the hammer. The B mode is equivalent to accumulating power. It can instantly release the nitrogen compressed on the armor surface while hammering the target, producing concussion damage similar to an explosion shock wave? And the C mode is roughly equivalent to inserting a thruster behind the hammer, whether it is running with the hammer or swinging it to hit people.
In addition, what powers the nitrogen-powered hammer is a miniature cold fusion battery, which is located at the front end of the hammer handle inserted into the hammer body. According to the fluorescent mark at the end of the hammer handle, the current battery is fully charged, and as long as it is not turned on all the time, it should theoretically be used to scrap the equipment. However, it doesn't really work all the time.
According to the manual provided by the system, continuous use will cause the circuit components in the equipment to overheat, and the warning light will flash for three seconds before triggering a protective power cut.
After playing with the power hammer in his hand for a while, Lucius couldn't help feeling emotional. Technology beyond the scope of cognition is really no different from magic. Not to mention how this thing controls nitrogen molecules, just the tiny cold fusion battery at the end of the vertical handle has reached the realm of science fiction movies for him.
At least Lucius couldn't imagine the reason for this at all. Take it apart for research?
It's not impossible to dismantle it, but what's the point of doing so? If its raw material is helium 3, it can only be mined on the moon, and if a certain material it uses an unknown process, then the reverse speed may not be as fast as researching from scratch.
After all, engaging in scientific research is not about working hard to produce miracles, let alone dismantling blind boxes. If we can recruit some talents from other shelters in the future, there is hope to restore some pre-war technology.
As for now? Of course it can be used. In addition to the nitrogen powered hammer, a box of antibiotics and a treatment needle were also issued from the two intermediate blind boxes.
But what surprised Lucius the most was the two elementary blind boxes, which opened a bottle of soy sauce and a bag of salt.
Good guy.
He was mentally prepared to add two more lollipops, but his character exploded in a strange place?
Lucius didn't know whether he was making money or losing money...
...
Six o'clock in the evening in wasteland time is exactly six o'clock in the morning in reality. Although many people are still lying in bed at this time, it is just the opposite for Wasteland OL players.
Instead of feeling any fatigue from a full night of gaming, they were refreshed from nearly 12 hours of sleep. Especially the battle with the predators, it was so exciting!
Almost as soon as they went offline, the official website became lively, and posts in the forum were swiping the screen nonstop.
Keeping People Under The Knife: "Oh my god, it was so fun to kill this afternoon! Hahaha, I have to go to the construction site in the morning, and my brothers are waiting for me to come back."
Quit Smoking: "Afternoon?!"
Keeping People Under The Knife: "Hey, the afternoon in the game! This game is so realistic that I forgot the time. In reality, it should be the hour in the morning! Oh, brother, you are guarding the official website so early?”
Quit Smoking: "(◣◢)┌∩┐"
Lao Bai: "I feel sorry for Smoking brother, I can't help but want to lend you the number to play."
Quitting Smoking: "Can I!!! (◡)"
Get Up Ten Times A Night: "You can use his a*s. Others can't see anything when they wear other gaming helmets, and he is probably laughing at you for being stupid. I won't explain it anymore now. If I explain too much, I will be crazy. If you understand it then okay, if you don't understand, then you will naturally understand it later. Wait for the public test. (>‿◠) "
Bear Hugger: "I laughed so hard, that I even slapped my face! You can just Slap your swollen face and pretend to be a pig's head, any way you are a pig, hahaha!"
Get Up Ten Times A Night: "Just wait, I'll apply for a moderator right away."
Irena: "Brother bear is here too, have you bought a house on the official website yet? You look quite happy. (=^.^=)"
Scrambled Eggs: "I knew you were all on the forum! I'm here to brag too, the battlefield environment of this game is so realistic! Compared with those orphan games that look like light pollution, the real battlefield should be That's it, the bullets are flying around, people are screaming, I don't know if I hit anyone or not, and I don't see clearly, but anyway, it's over if it's cool!"
Tabletop Cop: I hit a predator, that was so cool, he was screaming like he felt a great amount of pain, all though I just recently started playing this game, but I have to say that this game is really too real, especially with NPC acting skill, they felt like they are real people, not just some data files, anyway this today battle was too awesome, I am looking forward to next one.
Badass Bunny: "Hahahaha, this is the magic of this game, you soon knwn what is a true game look like, newby, but today atmosphere of the battlefield was a real real."
Get Up Ten Times A Night: "The case has been solved. After a long time, it turned out that you, the cook, were wasting bullets, even a newbie is better then you. And I saw that the manager's face was so dark in the end, because of it. ( ≧◡≦ )"
Scrambled Eggs: "What's wrong with being a cook? You don't know, after I run out of bullet, I rushed over to predators with an ax and knocked down them one by one! Only after I finished the work did I realize that I was shot in the leg. It really didn't hurt at all."
Tomorrow Seeker: "Scrambled Eggs are about physique, how do you feel?"
Compared with others, Tomorrow Seeker will always focus on game information.
Scrambled Eggs: "Recover quickly! I don't feel anything else. Hey, it would be fine if the perception system is not enough. If it doesn't work, the strength system will do."
Tomorrow Seeker: "That's it... I see."
Picking Up Trash Level 99: "Be content, I got the gun only to find that I can't poke my finger in it. (╥﹏╥)"
Get Up Ten Times A Night: "Hahahahaha!"
Tomorrow Seeker: "Uh, this is indeed a problem, why don't you break the frame in front of the trigger?"
Picking Up Trash Level 99: "Wait until I get a gun, f*ck, I have to pay Brother Mosquito first. (҂◡̀_◡́)ᕤ"
WC Really Has Mosquitoes: "Don't panic, my good brother, why don't you try a crossbow? I'll make one for you when the store opens, it's cheap! (͠≖ ͜ʖ͠≖)"
Picking Up Trash Level 99: "I'd better use the javelin!"
Irena: "(ˆ▿ˆc)"
Tabletop Cop: Big Brother is really funny.
There is a cheerful atmosphere in the forum.
After teasing Mr. Garbage, everyone started another post, discussing the countermeasures against predators.
Some cloud players who didn't get the game qualification also participated in, throwing out some bad ideas one after another, and a certain spy planner was dumbfounded.
Even if the fire attack. Even the water attack ran out. Is there any reservoir near here? Where can I get so much water?
Of course, this is not unreliable. For example, there is a small player who is very smart, and he actually thought of going with him.
His ID is very domineering, called [ Water Commander ], reservation sequence 661. Looking at the record of the speech, it was when I was bragging, and was diverted from other forums by the forum friends.
"...If you don't have the advantage in equipment, you won't be able to win street battles. The best way is to drag it until thousands of miles are frozen, and the road is blocked by heavy snow. At that time, the fight will not be about equipment and tactics, but about supplies. The fight is about logistics, and the fight is about morale... If Wasteland OL has this setting."
"Hypothetical, I mean hypothetical. Listen to you, these looters are not engaged in production, they are militaristic, and they live by looting, so where do they get their food, clothing, and toys? If they only fight occasionally, blackmailing the passing merchants is definitely not stable, and it may not be enough. Spring, summer and autumn are fine, but in winter, how can there be merchants passing by?"
"Then there are only three possibilities, either they are diligent and thrifty and know how to tighten their belts, or they have stable and long-term meal tickets to support them."
"The possibility of the former is very small, and the other party is a robber. If you really have this discipline, you will live a life again, and you will be a happy king of the mountain. Even if you don't farm, you will become a warlord!"
"If it's the latter, it's easy to handle. It's unrealistic to fortify the walls and clear the fields at the door, so cut off their supply lines! Winter is still growing, and the supplies in the village will be exhausted sooner or later. Without the support of meal tickets, a group of rabble how long can persist?"
"The other is that the system is flashed. This is actually the case in many games. The AI's mines have been dropped and they are still brainless."
"If this is the case, please pretend I didn't say it!"
