[Announcement for all servers: The wave will end within seven days, and the mission rewards will be sent to the player's account within 24 hours...]
The bell tower bathed in the morning light, like a torch lit on the ruins, set the mother nest of the mutant slime mold on fire.
This battle almost exhausted all the ammunition stocks of Shelter No. 404.
Not to mention the 7mm bullets, nearly a thousand 20mm armor-piercing, high-explosive, and incendiary bombs were used, and the 88mm mortar shells were bombed in turns regardless of cost.
But Chu Guang didn't feel too bad.
The old doesn't go, the new doesn't come.
The huge fiscal deficit is certainly worrying, but the military production capacity of Shelter No. 404 has reached an unprecedented height under the stimulation of "Void Silver Coins".
At present, the maximum daily production capacity of 7mm caliber full-power bullets can reach 200,000 rounds with a weight of nearly 5 tons if the raw materials are in sufficient supply.
With the deployment of a large number of "light cavalry rifles", the No. 81 Steel Plant has completed mass production of 20mm armor-piercing shells, greatly reducing production costs and working hours.
At present, the two factory managers of the No. 81 Steel Plant are studying the mass production and improvement of two more complex ammunitions, high-explosive shells and incendiary shells. I believe that it will not take long for results to be achieved.
Once a war breaks out, this will become the biggest reliance of Shelter No. 404!
After the battle.
NPCs wearing protective clothing went to the battlefield to recover corpses, and the tasks of duty and clearing the remaining alien species were handed over to the guards, while the players left the front line one after another.
The clones need to rest.
Many players fought all night, relying on the soaring adrenaline to hold on to the [fatigue debuff]. When the emotions above faded, many people yawned.
The injured players returned to the shelter, and the uninjured players found a nearby save point (hibernation capsule) to log off.
As for the players who died in battle or died of serious injuries, they left long ago.
At this moment, no matter which section of the official website, it is very lively.
Tail: "Damn... Why am I assigned to Company C? I didn't even see what the BOSS looks like! (ó﹏ò?)"
The composition of the troops is randomly assigned.
In order to ensure that each echelon has sufficient combat power, Chu Guang asked Xiao Qi to assign players. Except for Company A, which has the largest proportion of awakened people as the vanguard, the proportion of awakened people in other companies is the same.
Of course.
The players can't know this.
In the eyes of most people, not being assigned to the most exciting and dangerous front line is simply bad luck.
Sisi: "Participation is important, participation is important. We also killed three tyrants, which is pretty good. (pats head)"
WC really has mosquitoes: "Tyrants are nothing. I got the heads of two bosses and a first kill announced by the whole server! Hahahaha! It's awesome!"
I'm the darkest: "MMP! Do you have the nerve to steal heads?! I'm about to A up!"
Makabazi: "That's right! Too much! I can't stand it!"
Stop talking nonsense: "Be a human being!"
WC really has mosquitoes: "It doesn't matter! If you steal it, you'll earn it! (smirk)"
The MVP of the entire battle was taken by mosquitoes without any suspense.
The two hundred-kilogram bombs that fell from the sky blasted the node creatures of the wave into slag, which can be said to have directly reversed the situation!
But the boss behind was suspected of stealing heads...
No matter how you think about it, there is no need to hit it, so it has been complained by front-line players.
But will Mosquito care?
Obviously not.
It's his own plane, he can crash it however he wants.
Not to mention that he's used to it.
Commander Fountain: "To be honest, I've been wondering if your plane doesn't have landing gear at all?"
WC Real Mosquito: "How is it possible! How did I slide down from the building without that thing? The bomb on the belly of the plane didn't just hit the ground! But later I found that it didn't make any sense. There was no airspeed tube and gyroscope, and the ground was pitch black. Not to mention there was no runway, even if there was a runway, I couldn't land. I thought I might as well just crash it."
Ward Foot Foot Who Levin: "I'm not saying, your 7mm small water pipe is really too lame, why don't you just Is it a 20m machine? Go to the toilet: "That's it! Black you!" WC really has mosquitoes: "@￥#%!" It is too easy to fly the plane. The speed is enough to go up and go up if you can't go up. There is no instrument panel on the plane. Next time, he is confident that he can do better.
As for the cost?
Only OB for three days.
No big problem!
The post quickly went off the track and turned into a war of words between the 81st Steel Plant and the Goblin Technology.
What "I made the 88mm gun barrel" and "Only sissies play with 20mm small water pipes, and real men only use large-caliber rockets", the three people's bragging is getting more and more outrageous.
But they still talk about it with reason and evidence, citing classics.
This kind of topic is not open to ordinary people, and everyone went to other posts. As a result, Mosquito and the two factory managers relied on their own strength to make this off-track post a hot list.
Later, some cloud players who understand technology came in to watch, and they interrupted one by one, and the post became more and more violent.
If it were a normal forum, the administrator would have come out to cover his mouth to keep him safe.
But this forum has no such rules.
Thousands of posts were created but no one stopped them. Even after the two big companies stopped, the posts were still being built.
Professor Yang, the King of Thunder and Lightning: "Hey, it's awesome to have a strong backend. You can talk about anything."
Outlaw Thief Gewa: "It's not a question of whether it's strong or not. The server of this forum is a bit weird. A buddy of mine who knows technology tried it on a whim and wanted to hack into the server to see, but he couldn't even find the door."
Garven IV Nidam: "What's even more weird is that complaints involving this website have fallen into the sea regardless of whether they go through external or internal channels. Even if the grassroots are too lazy to manage it, they will put up a blacklist, right? If this kind of website is not on the blacklist, I guess there are probably people above them."
What can I do with my boss: "Haha, just brag! It's just a gambling website. At best, it's under the jurisdiction of the public security brigade. Do you think the leaders have nothing to do and come here to talk nonsense with you? There are people above you, it's ridiculous."
Whether there are people above you or not, it's not something that ordinary players can know.
Maybe it already exists, maybe it doesn't, or maybe the "100% real virtual reality game" itself is a test site of a mysterious research institute?
Otherwise, there is no way to explain why the game is full of domestic players and there is no language barrier between players.
Of course, only players who have obtained the closed beta qualification and cloud players who have filled out the reservation form will consider this level, and for those who are purely here to have fun and stupid netizens, whether this game exists is the biggest controversy.
If it doesn't exist, the promotional PV is well done.
If it exists, it won't be an urban legend circulating in the game circle until now, and the discussion heat is not as hot as a certain universe that is cutting leeks.
Every time this topic is discussed, people will argue red in the face, and they only hate that the world can't become what they imagine.
Just when the post was getting more and more crooked, an official website announcement was suddenly updated to the top of the forum, and pushed to all sections.
It was a game PV, and the publisher's ID was Xiaoqi.
Although it is only three minutes long, it condenses all the wonderful moments of the "Wave War" last night. Every shot from the sky to the land is included, and there is no boring moment in the whole process!
It is no exaggeration to say that every shot is a work of art!
Every frame is photographic!
Although the bloody part has been fine-tuned technically, it does not affect the viewing experience of netizens. Whether it is the particle effect of each dust particle or the sharp lines on the azure power armor, it is so realistic that people can't find fault with it.
Many netizens even sighed.
If you turn off the filter, it's just like the real thing!
And this time, Brother Ye Ao is also unprecedented. Less than an hour after being slapped in the face, he sourly posted the second post of the day.
"Haha, keep blowing..."
"If this is the actual game screen, I will eat shit live!"
It doesn't matter whether it is a game screen or not.
The tense and exciting battlefield, coupled with the shocking BGM, not only the cloud players were excited, but even the real players who just came off the line wanted to play again.
Battlefield atmosphere group: "Awesome! I'm on TV again! Hahaha!"
Irena: "And I'm not playing a corpse this time. (Funny)"
Fountain commander: "Fortunately I put on my equipment! (Grinning teeth)"
Ya Ya: "Why is Xiaoqi the one who posted the video today? Wasn't it A Guang before?"
Tail: "I'll tag you! (≥ω?*)?@Xiaoqi"
Usually, this planner named Xiaoqi will not interact with netizens on the forum, and even Tail has never thought that he can really tag her.
However, at this moment, something unexpected happened to everyone.
Xiaoqi: "A Guang, he's asleep.o(*////▽////*)q"
Ya Ya: "???"
Wei Ba: "?"
Ye Shi: "What the hell?! Isn't A Guang a single dog? (Shocked)"
Fang Chang: "Be careful of scumbags, this guy hasn't posted an official announcement on WeChat Moments, remember to check his phone to see if it's visible to someone only. (Smirk)"
Xiaoqi: "Hey, don't talk nonsense, we are not the kind of relationship you think.ヾ?(@≥?≤@)??"
Teng Teng: "Then what is your relationship? Do you know each other in real life? Have you met the parents? (Curious)"
Xiaoqi: "It's the master.o(*////▽////*)q"
The post was quiet for a while.
Although it was only a short second.
Teng Teng: "Anyway, call 110 first."
Xiao Qi: "QAQ?"
...
Players can take off their helmets and get up, but Chu Guang doesn't have a helmet. He hasn't slept for more than 20 hours, and he fell asleep on the bed as soon as he returned to the shelter.
When he woke up, it was already night.
"...Is your schedule reversed again?"
Rubbing his sleepy eyes, Chu Guang slowly sat up from the bed and muttered, glancing at the pool of liquid under the bed.
Accelerated metabolism will cause a lot of sweating, and this time the amount is obviously more than the previous times, so that he even feels a little dehydrated.
The whole body is filled with a feeling of strength, and the mind and vision are clearer than ever before. Chu Guang even vaguely sees half of the fingerprint stuck on the door handle.
There is no surprise.
He has risen again!
"The previous development progress was 19%."
"... So it should be 20% now?"
Second awakening!
Chu Guang was delighted.
Although he wanted to go for a physical examination right now, the sense of disharmony brought by the sudden increase in physical function made him dare not get up from the bed immediately.
Sitting on the edge of the bed, he gently moved his fingers and limbs to adapt to the changes happening to him.
He is not bragging.
Now he is even confident that he can dodge the oncoming bullets with just his intuition, reflex nerves and strength!
Of course.
It's good to know about this kind of thing yourself, there's no need to try it out of your own accord...
Standing on the elevator, Chu Guang was planning to take a shower first, and then go to Heya for a checkup, but at this moment, he suddenly had an idea.
"Speaking of which... the task of unlocking the B4 floor seems to have been completed?"
Thinking of this, Chu Guang instantly lost his composure.
Last time he unlocked the B3 floor, he recovered two black boxes from the warehouse, solving the problem of players' difficulty in saving and insufficient attribute panels.
This time he solved the wave and unlocked the B4 floor. It's not too much to give him a black box for printing power armor, right?
In addition to the incubator and the black box, there must be other good things!
However, just as Chu Guang excitedly stretched his hand to the elevator touch screen, a line of light blue floating windows appeared in front of him.
[Remaining unlocking time: 6 days, 12 hours, 13 minutes and 6 seconds]
Seeing this line of words, Chu Guang almost vomited blood.
Damn!
Hasn't the wave been repelled?
The mission is also completed!
Do we have to wait until the spore concentration outside returns to normal levels before opening the door?
There is no point in being anxious. Chu Guang took a deep breath and pressed his index finger on the button on the B3 floor.
Anyway.
Let's first figure out the changes in myself.
...
Medical laboratory.
Heya, who came out of the analysis room next door, handed the tablet full of data in her hand to Chu Guang who was sitting on the scanning bed.
"... Unbelievable, the changes in you are getting more and more amazing. Are you sure you didn't use any drugs or other technical means?"
Chu Guang took the tablet and just glanced at it, then switched to the more concise and intuitive attribute panel.
"No, is this considered a second awakening?"
Heya raised her eyebrows and asked curiously.
"Secondary awakening? Is this a professional term? Has anyone done similar research?"
Chu Guang said casually: "No, it's just the name that the wastelanders have agreed on for this phenomenon... I also heard it from others."
As for whether anyone has studied it, only those who have studied it know.
There is no forum for academic exchanges in the wasteland, and the gap in knowledge and cognition is greater than the gap between the rich and the poor. Even in modern society, not everyone can distinguish the difference between selective gene expression and DNA mutation, let alone the illiterate wastelanders.
But places like the academy should know something about this phenomenon, right?
But the Wandering Swamp is too far away from here.

Talent: 1. Wild instinct: Wild instinct can be awakened under extreme conditions, and all attributes are increased by 10~15% during the duration, and the fatigue value accumulation speed is increased by 20~30%.
2. Mental deterrence: It can produce a psychological pressure effect on fully mental life forms weaker than itself, weakening its resistance.
3. Hive mind: For fully mental life forms weaker than itself, it can share 3~15% of the intelligence attribute, so that it can be inspired and think faster. This effect is affected by multiple factors such as distance, number of people, and acceptance, and the maximum distance is 10m.
]
After reading the attribute panel from beginning to end, Chu Guang's face was filled with surprise.
Wow.
All attributes increased by five points!
No wonder he felt like a superman when he woke up today.
But what the hell is the last skill?
Can it open people's heads?
His intelligence attribute is currently 20. Although it is only a 3-point increase according to the maximum 15%, compared with ordinary people with only five points of basic intelligence, isn't it equivalent to a 60% increase in nerve cell activity?
If it is used for a group, there is also a minimum of 0.6 points!
This talent is quite amazing!
But...
How did this happen?
Looking at Chu Guang who was lost in thought, Heya thought for a while and suddenly spoke.
"It will take some time to study the mother nest, but about the research on the evolutionary body... I found something unusual."
Evolutionary body is the name given to node creatures by wastelanders.
Although few people know what role they play in the wave, most people can see that they are obviously different from common alien species such as gnawers, crawlers and even tyrants.
Whether it is the way of fighting or the dominance over lower individuals.
They are like a strange species among mutant slime molds.
Chu Guang looked up at Heya and asked curiously.
"What did you find?"
"Based on the comparison of samples recovered from the decayed knight, the queen, abandoned tanks and trucks, I found some special DNA fragments from some cells in their bodies..."
Heya walked to the side of Chu Guang, stretched out her index finger and gently swiped on the tablet, and the screen quickly switched from the attribute panel to another research report.
"Does it look familiar?"
Chu Guang noticed the picture in the report, which was two long chains of DNA, and on another picture next to it, there were some structures similar to synapses.
As for those numbers and symbols.
He can be sure.
This is the first time he has met them.
"Just tell me the conclusion."
Heya didn't seem surprised that Chu Guang would say that.
"It's too hasty to draw a conclusion now, but all the clues are reflecting the same thing."
"Those 'evolved bodies' are probably transformed from humans!"
