On the way back, Yin Fang held the holographic video tape tightly with both hands, looking solemn, as if he was holding his own child.
His right hand rubbed it over and over again, and it was almost patinated.
Oh my god...
Fortunately, I remembered the password.
Chu Guang felt that it was eye-catching, and turned his face away with an old man's subway phone. However, at this moment, Yin Fang suddenly looked at him with sharp eyes.
"If I take this thing back, do you think the college will let me go? I give you the box, and I don't want anything."
Chu Guang rolled his eyes at him.
"I'm a little polite to you, do you think I'm a fool?"
Yin Fang was stunned.
Chu Guang easily stretched out his hand and took the holographic video from his arms without any effort.
"You know what? I didn't kill you, I've done you a great favor."
Looking at the young man who was gradually turning pale, Chu Guang stopped threatening him and patted his shoulder with a smile.
"Do you know what I encountered when I first came to this world... ahem, I mean when I first woke up?"
Yin Fang swallowed his saliva, his voice trembling slightly.
"What did I encounter..."
"A dog with two heads, it was like it ran out of hell to pick me up," Chu Guang said casually after putting the holographic videotape into his pocket, "If I had been a little slower at the time, I might have died. In fact, I later found out that if I had run east or north at the time, it would have been a dead end. I was lucky to survive, and I will cherish this life, so I advise you not to make me feel that you are a threat."
To the west is a lake, a dead end. Going north and running into the predators, running east directly into the mutants' pot, both are worse than death.
Even now when he recalled it, Chu Guang couldn't help but sweat for himself.
Yin Fang opened his mouth, and his expression looked a little dazed.
Chu Guang ignored him, folded his arms and closed his eyes to rest, sorting out the information he had obtained from the video tape, and thinking about how to edit and update this holographic image on the official website.
The little players sitting in the truck looked at each other, their expressions were like watching a foreign language movie without subtitles for a long time, with a big look of confusion on their faces.
Fountain hooked his finger at the battlefield guy, motioning him to come over, and lowered his voice and whispered.
"How do you think we should hint to the manager to give us a reward?"
The battlefield guy was confused.
"I don't know... just ask?"
Both of them were embarrassed to speak first.
At this time, Izuihei, who had been silent, spoke.
"Manager! May I ask if our mission is completed?"
Looking up and meeting a pair of expectant eyes, Chu Guang suddenly realized that he seemed to have forgotten to pay.
With a dignified expression on his face, he nodded calmly and said.
"You did a great job, all of you are very good."
After thinking about it, Chu Guang finally decided to give the players a little sweetness. He selected a pre-edited task reward on the VM and clicked send.
[Hint: Trigger the hidden branch. ]
[Reward: 10 silver coins, 100 contribution points]
As for the hibernation capsules on the truck, that is the job of the warehouse manager. Chu Guang is not responsible for helping them calculate how much these garbage are worth.
Seeing the prompt pop up on the VM screen, the players' faces showed excitement.
Not to mention 10 silver coins, there is actually a 100 contribution point reward for going through the plot!
This is too cool!
Seeing them so happy, Chu Guang was also happy.
It would be great if everyone in the wasteland was as cute as his little players.
The truck drove straight towards Changjiu Farm.
However, at this moment, a gunshot suddenly came from the front, and the bullets whizzed past the truck, and one of them hit the front window.
"Enemy contact!"
"It's the Predator!"
There were quite a few people on the opposite side, and there were at least thirty gunshots in that round of volleys, but these people were obviously amateurs, with poor equipment and firing from such a distance, and no one fell.
The player driving the car was also a ruthless person. Seeing that the bullets were coming from the front, he was not panicked at all. He turned the steering wheel slightly and skillfully pushed the front of the car into the snow.
While preventing the engine from being damaged, he pulled the handbrake and stopped with the buffer of the snow, grabbed the rifle and jumped out of the car.
"The bolt pullers, stay behind. Brothers with assault rifles, follow me! Let's surround them from the flank!"
"Ahhhh!"
"Here we go!"
Seeing the opportunity to make a contribution, the players on the truck had green eyes and jumped out of the truck with their weapons, leaving only the Fountain Commander on the truck.
Although this guy wanted to go, he only had a centurion pistol on him, and he couldn't hit anyone at such a long distance. He was afraid that his equipment would fall off if he got too close to the face.
In a moment of urgency, he shouted loudly.
"You guys hurry up! I'll guard the house!"
As he said that, he symbolically fired a shot in front of him, regardless of whether he hit it or not, anyway, this combat state should be considered as hanging up.
Bullets whizzed around, and Yin Fang, who got up from the car with his head covered, looked around nervously.
"What's going on?!"
Could it be that the people from the academy are chasing us? !
"It's a small scene, don't panic."
Chu Guang held the hammer in his right hand, but after seeing the situation on the other side, he curled his lips, released the hammer and held the Gauss rifle.
The magazine was filled with imitation ammunition.
It's a bit uncertain to penetrate the armor, but it's more than enough to fight this kind of miscellaneous soldiers...
...
At the same time, behind the snow pile 300 meters in front of the truck, there were more than 30 men in navy blue uniforms.
They held the same iron tube rifles in their hands. At first glance, they were all centurions of the legion, but they had no soldiers under their command. They looked ugly and malnourished.
The man with a tattoo on his bare face held a horn made of iron sheets in his hand and shouted loudly behind the bunker.
"Listen, people in front, do you see our clothes? You are surrounded by the legion! If you know what's good for you, throw away your weapons and surrender! Otherwise, you will be punished by the legion!"
He shouted for a long time but no response.
The other side seemed to have heard nothing, and the bullets still whizzed over their heads or whizzed down on the bunkers in front.
The man with the mohawk shaved head looked nervously at the bald man next to him and said with panic in his eyes.
"Boss! These people... are not easy to deal with!"
There was no reaction to their morale offensive!
He even felt that the other side fought back more fiercely after the loudspeaker was shouted.
The bald man slapped his head with a curse.
"Useless thing, what's there to be afraid of! Including the driver, there are only nine of them. We have 32 guns here, can't we kill them? Shoot them! Don't let them run away!"
After saying that, he added another sentence.
"By the way, don't kill them all! Leave two hostages, we still have to ask the people in their village for ransom!"
The bald man's name is Tu, and he was originally a predator active in the central part of the River Valley Province. As for why they came to the southernmost part of the River Valley Province, that's a long story.
The Legion had been fighting the people of the Great Rift Valley in the north for a whole year, and the progress had not been very smooth. A few days ago, they suffered a great defeat. General Kras's men died, were injured, and fled. The whole army was defeated.
According to the people who fled from the north, the remnants of the Legion were like locusts. Wherever they passed, no grass grew, and even alien species had to avoid them.
Tu naturally didn't believe such nonsense. He just thought that the idiot was scared and said some nonsense to survive. He was dragged out and bled and thrown into the pot with wine.
Legion?
Oh, isn't that the defeated general of the Great Rift Valley?
They came to give him equipment!
However, Tu himself might not have expected that on the third day after he and his friends boasted about making the head of the Legion Commander into a chamber pot, the deserters of the Legion really ran to the town at his doorstep.
There weren't many people coming, only nine decapitators, and not a single clone slave. These people might have been driven crazy by the shells of the Great Rift Valley, or by their own shells. In short, they were bloodthirsty and shot at anyone they saw without even saying hello.
Tu, who had a hundred brothers under his command, was naturally not afraid of them. He led his men to surround them, and indeed, he solved the opponent in a short time.
However, something happened that made Tu confused. More than a hundred people fought against nine people, and the casualties were one for one. He was so angry that he chopped the only prisoner he caught on the spot and even forgot about the ransom!
Not two days later, another wave of deserters came. This time, there were a little more decapitators, twelve, and seventeen or eighteen clone slaves. They didn't kill anyone they saw like the last batch of crazy people, but chose a survivor settlement and occupied it directly.
The settlement had paid protection fees to Tu. Seeing that his meal ticket was gone, Tu could not bear it and surrounded them again.
However, this fight was terrible. One-third of the enemy was killed. If the enemy had not run out of bullets, they would have almost lost.
This time Tu was really scared. He finally realized the horror of locusts. In less than a week, thirty or forty brothers died, and countless were injured.
Even if they made a living by looting, they could not bear such exaggerated losses.
Hearing that the deserters of the legion were coming again, Tu was scared out of his wits. This time he did not even dare to fight. He took his confidants and packed up his things and ran south.
After experiencing the ups and downs along the way, half of the people on the road dispersed, and finally they found a survivor base that seemed to be living a wealthy life.
However, the people here did not seem to be easy to mess with. The soldiers standing on the wall were holding uniform rifles, and the smoke in the camp never stopped. Only a hundred people could be seen living outside, and no one knew how many people lived inside.
Tu did not act rashly, and did not even dare to get too close. He found a high ground in the north and looked over there with a telescope.
After waiting for two full days, when the brothers were almost unable to hold back, they finally got the chance to act.
A truck went to the abandoned city in the north. There were not many people in the car, only a few.
Tu did not hesitate, and immediately seized the opportunity and ambushed them on the way back with his men, preparing to ambush them.
However, what Tu did not expect was that the progress of the matter did not seem to be as smooth as he expected. After those people were hit head-on, they did not panic as expected, and even sent people to outflank them.
At this moment, something suddenly exploded next to him, making a "bang" sound, which scared Tu who was about to lean out of the bunker to fire.
"Fuck, what the hell is going on?" Tu turned his head suddenly, and it didn't matter what he saw, he was shocked on the spot.
He saw that one of his brothers had a head that was like being bombarded, and the whole brain was blown away, leaving only a lonely half neck standing there, and blood kept pouring out.
Before he could react to what happened, another explosion came from the side.
This brother was worse than the previous one. A big hole was blown in his chest, including the bunker. He fell to the ground and struggled for a while before swallowing the half breath hanging on his lips.
This time it was not just Tu who was confused.
The predator brothers standing next to him were also confused, and for a while they even forgot to shoot.
"…What kind of weapon is that!?"
"It's the guy in the truck!"
"Fuck! Gauss rifle?! How can they have a Gauss rifle!"
The predator had heard about the Gauss rifle. Although he didn't know the principle, he heard that it could penetrate power armor with one shot, which was better than the anti-material rifle of the legion.
When they heard that it was a Gauss rifle, everyone panicked and didn't dare to show their heads to fight back. However, the more they did so, the more dangerous their situation became.
The predator with a mohawk looked at the boss and said in panic.
"Boss, let's retreat!"
If you keep the green mountains, you won't be afraid of running out of firewood. If you continue to fight, you might be wiped out by the enemy. It's hard to find sheep with four legs, but there are many with two legs. This survivor base can't be eaten, so at worst, you can change it.
Tu was still hesitating. Reason told him that he should retreat, but he couldn't bear to let the fat sheep go. Even with a Gauss rifle, they still had the advantage in numbers. As long as he sent some people to attack them, he could get close to them from the side.
Just as he was thinking this, gunshots came from another direction, followed by a row of bullets whizzing at their backs.
Caught off guard, several looters at the back screamed and died.
Tu was shocked and looked back quickly. He saw that a group of people had come from the direction of Elm District without knowing when.
And there were quite a few people!
There were about ten of them!
"Boss! Their reinforcements have arrived!"
"Shut up, I need your reminder! Damn it!" Tu was shocked and angry. He quickly sent some people to the west to stop the reinforcements from moving forward.
He couldn't figure out how these people were able to provide support so quickly. It was only ten minutes from the time the gunshots started.
Even if they reacted, they would have to react for a while, right? !
The situation was reversed in an instant, and the two groups of people were in an east-west trend, sandwiching them on a gentle slope running north-south!
There were people on both the west and the east. No matter which side of the reverse slope was used as a cover, they were pressed halfway up the slope by the other side.
After a while, several more people fell to the ground, and several more were blown into slag by Gauss rifles.
In just a dozen minutes, the casualties approached 30%, and these mobs had no courage to continue fighting.
Tu could no longer control his subordinates.
Everyone abandoned their combat positions and fled to the north, running wildly as if they were dying. However, their physical strength and physical fitness were far inferior to those of the players who ate three meals a day.
Especially in the eyes of the players, these fleeing looters were like walking silver coins, contributions, and regional reputation!
This was an encounter triggered near Changjiu Farm. It's not too much to give them a regional reputation of one or two hundred, right?
The benevolent and generous administrator was on the scene. Even if the dog planner A Guang was stingy, the Shuguang who had the server authority would definitely not be stingy with this little reward!
Watching their fleeing backs, the chasing players were like hungry wolves with green eyes, howling and chasing after them.
"Don't run!"
"Surrender your guns and we won't kill you!"
"Hold your head and squat down!"
During this period, some old players still learned a few words that NPCs can understand. After a while of shouting, a few predators really understood, dropped their weapons, and squatted on the ground with their hands holding their heads.
In the whole encounter, the players had 0 deaths and 3 injuries, and all of them were minor injuries. Another one was too fierce in the chase, tripped over a tree root buried in the snow, and hit his nose.
In reality, it would definitely hurt for half a day, but in the game, it would be fine even if they were left alone.
As for the predators, it was too miserable. A full 11 died and 26 were captured.
Each player who participated in the battle was rewarded with 50 silver, 50 tribute and 100 regional reputation. Chu Guang then ordered the young players who cheered for the victory to take the captives to the open space in front of the north gate of Changjiu Farm and squat on the ground with their hands on their heads.
Walking up to the captives with two guards, Chu Guang glanced at their navy blue coats and asked.
"Are you from the legion? Who is your commander?"
Tu, who was bruised and swollen, wanted to raise his hand tremblingly, but before he could speak, the little minions next to him answered tremblingly.
"I, we are not, sir."
That is an ordinary looter.
Chu Guang understood and continued to look at them and ask.
"Where are your clothes from?"
Tu, who was squatting on the side, said hurriedly.
"The northern legion was defeated. I heard that General Kras, the leader of the expeditionary army, was executed by the people of the Great Rift Valley. The deserters of the legion either ran west or south, killing people like locusts. Our clothes and guns were picked up from those deserters of the centurions."
This set of clothes is very useful, especially in the north. Many survivors were scared to death when they saw the navy blue coat and turned around and ran away.
Tu also wondered, aren't these people afraid?
The legion lost?
Chu Guang was surprised, but not surprised.
Such heavy snow must be more unfriendly to the attackers with long supply lines. If he were the general of the expeditionary army, he would definitely consider launching a decisive battle before the situation worsens, to completely decide the outcome, and return to his own home if he loses, and live in the enemy's home if he wins.
The appearance of Vanus further confirmed his guess that these people could no longer fight. But what Chu Guang didn't expect was that the expeditionary army was defeated so thoroughly that even General Kras was killed.
The defeated soldiers of the legion were in chaos everywhere, and even the looters were forced to move south.
This winter will not be easy...
Seeing Chu Guang lost in thought, Old Luca thought he was unsure about how to deal with these captives, so he stepped forward and whispered.
"Sir, if you are undecided about what to do, you might as well refer to my advice."
"Go ahead."
"We are in need of manpower now. It would be a pity to kill them directly. It is better to send them to do hard labor. When the spring comes next year, we can see whether to keep them for use or sell them to the mines in Honghe Town."
This is a good idea.
Chu Guang nodded.
But there is still a problem.
"The guard team is not enough. What if someone escapes?"
Old Luca continued.
"This is actually very easy to solve. New and old prisoners are mixed together, two in a cell. If one is missing, the other three will be hanged."
Chu Guang's eyes lit up: "This is a good idea. How did you come up with it?"
Luca smiled slightly awkwardly, bowed his head and said respectfully.
"Sir, this is not a rare thing... Many slave survivors do this."
Okay.
It seems that I am too kind.
Chu Guang sighed in his heart, then looked at the looters, put on a majestic expression on his face, looked down at them and said.
"I was going to hang you on the gallows, but killing prisoners is not a just act."
Looking at the trembling prisoners, he continued.
"From today on, you will accept labor transformation and strive to be something useful to society, civilization, and mankind."
After saying that, Chu Guang looked at old Luca without looking at them.
"I'll leave these people to you."
Old Luca nodded respectfully.
"Yes, sir."

After returning to the shelter, Chu Guang browsed the official website, especially focusing on checking the progress of the strategy for the entrance to Shelter No. 117.
Brother Mole is still very powerful. He and Mosquito have developed a set of cancer fighting methods, that is, find a new agile person to pull monsters, pull the monsters up and kill them with concentrated fire.
There is no limit on the distance of monsters in Wasteland OL. For those monsters that do not have fixed nests, in theory, as long as you are cunning enough, the monsters can chase you to the ends of the earth.
They have already killed 2 creepers with this set of tactics!
Brother Mole thought he had found a bug and did not dare to say it too clearly on the forum, but what he did not know was that VM would record their communication information and secretly upload it to the cloud.
Chu Guang combined their routes of action and could guess it without Xiaoqi's help.
In addition to Brother Mole, another relatively active closed beta player on the forum today is Brother Fountain Water, the "Emperor of Europe".
This guy searched for 10 hibernation capsules, all of which were in good condition. He got a total of 700 silver coins, which he shared with two teammates, an average of 233.3 silver coins per person.
This does not include the income from the subsequent battle and the plot.
In addition, Brother Fountain Water also opened a separate post to recommend Mosquito's "Steel Nail 1.0" and called it a melee artifact.
"Brother Meng, believe me, Mosquito can be reliable sometimes. I swear, I have never seen a melee weapon that is more useful than this thing! At that time, I was pounced on by the creeper, and I was about to be bitten off the neck. I immediately clenched my fist, and then with a bang, a hole was pierced in the creeper's head! Simple and crude, one-shot kill! I would like to call it the strongest version!"
Night Ten: "Tell me, how much money did Mosquito pay you to advertise against your conscience. (Funny)"
WC really has mosquitoes: "Gan! What do you mean it can be reliable sometimes? Aren't my Hellfire and Storm reliable? They are so strong!"
Garbage Picker Level 99: "I testify! Mosquito can be reliable sometimes, but it's a bit labor-intensive. Last time, I rushed into the trench with a boiler on my back and had a good time. It took me three days to go online."
WC really has mosquitoes: "Pay back the money!"
Garbage Picker Level 99: "QAQ"
Chu Guang, who was peeking at the screen, couldn't help but sigh.
"These guys are really talented."
At this time, there was a knock on the door.
Chu Guang didn't even look up, and answered casually.
"Come in."
He thought it was Boss Xia who came to harass him again, but he didn't expect that the person who came was Yin Fang.
As soon as the young man entered the door, he didn't say anything. He stood with his head down for a long time before he spoke with a face full of shame.
"I..."
"I have to apologize to you."-
