This Game is Too Real

Chapter 142: Why can't our kitchens be a little more yang

  Chapter 142 Why can't our kitchen be able to make a little earth food?

  【Mission: Go to the Action Camp】

  【Introduction: Thank you very much! Volunteers from Outpost 404! The reinforcements escorting you to the operation camp have arrived at the north gate of the wetland park. We have prepared a warm barracks for you ten kilometers away. Please come with us now! 】

  [Requirement: Follow the staff of the "Pioneer" to the operation camp and start the follow-up mission. 】

  【Reward: 10 Activity Points】

   North gate of the outpost.

  The players who are ready to go have completed their assembly. They don’t look like laborers who are going to move bricks at all, but they look like they are going on a picnic.

   The players who did not get the qualifications looked at them with envy. Especially listening to these people say that when you reach the destination, you will get 10 points, and you will cry with envy and hatred!

   "There are 10 points for opening a map, is this reasonable?"

   "As soon as the expansion pack opened, the gap was forcibly opened. Is this reasonable?"

   "Unreasonable! Too unreasonable!"

   "Call Planning Dad!"

   However, it was of no use.

   The majority are in the queue, and the minority is not in the queue.

Fang Chang, who was standing in the Ouhuang team, laughed and said: "Brothers, don't panic, let's go ahead and explore the way for you! If there is anything good, I will update it on the forum as soon as possible! Wait for you to come. You don't have to cross the river by feeling the stones!"

   The Canyon Fleeing Mole, who was not in line, immediately shouted when he heard this.

   "Hey! Are you embarrassed? I've finished all the stones for you! By the way, have you stopped playing your dungeon? The priority to explore is seven days!"

   Fang Chang smiled: "What are you playing, how can there be a new map incense in the dungeon? Would you help me play for three days first?"

  The fleeing mole in the canyon: "Go away!"

   In the distance, a jet-black power armor appeared in the snow-covered forest and walked towards the north gate of the outpost.

   Walking outside the North Gate Market, Chu Guang held Captain Lu Yang's right hand, shook it and said with a smile.

   "My residents, please."

  Lu Yang made a serious promise with a solemn and serious expression.

   "I swear by my honor and credit score that I will keep every one of them safe!"

  What Chu Guang actually wanted to say is that you don't have to use so much force, and if someone is accidentally killed, it won't be in the way, just give a pension.

not much.

  1000CR is enough.

   But what is a credit score?

   At this time, the little players standing around noticed that the beggar-version armor on their manager was gone, replaced by an expensive exoskeleton. There was still a hammer hanging on his back, but there was a handsome rifle next to the hammer.

  Although there are too many elements, this is a wasteland!

   Of course, what surprised them the most was that their manager had changed his equipment again!

   "My giao! You can see the manager's exoskeleton!"

   "Huh? When did he change his equipment?!"

   "Dude, Fallout 2077 becomes Cyber ​​2077!"

"Look at how you haven't seen the world before. Didn't Brother Mole analyze it on the forum before? The NPCs in this game will increase with the players' game behavior! A wave of rational analysis must be the reason why we work hard to do the task. Only let the manager have a new skin!"

   "Yes! This game is too real!"

   "Brothers, work harder and try to get the manager to wear power armor!"

"Awesome!"

   The captain was talking with the manager, and Luo Hua, who was standing by and waiting to send them away, glanced at the unresponsive VM, and said with a frown.

   "Why does this translation function sometimes work and sometimes it doesn't work?"

  Ace: "..."

  Luo Hua: "Hey, what do you think they're talking about?"

  Ace: "..."

  Luo Hua: "Aren't you curious at all? Well, when I didn't ask...I'll boil some water and soak the freeze-dried food in a while."

  Ace: "I want corn."

  Luo Hua: "..."

   After sending Captain Lu Yang and the players away, Chu Guang waved at their backs, and suddenly noticed Luo Hua who was not far away.

   This guy is the type that can't keep his mouth shut.

With a slight movement in his heart, Chu Guang suddenly thought of an idea.

   However, it's still too early, it's far from the time to eat. He still has things to do in a while, and he will talk about it when he comes back in the evening.

  …

  It takes almost 200 minutes to walk a ten-kilometer journey in the wilderness, and the road conditions are slightly better than in the city.

   In order to clear the snow on the road for the residents of the shelter, Lu Yang also brought an off-road vehicle when he came, installed a snow shovel in front of the bumper, and drove in front to clear the snow on the road.

   The morale of the residents of these shelters is quite high, and their physical fitness is also very strong. Originally, Lu Yang was worried about whether they would be tired, but later found that his worries were purely unnecessary.

   Originally it took 200 minutes, but it took 2 hours.

   Before ten o'clock in the morning, the group arrived near the "Pioneer" land fortress.

   Looking at the four mountain-like steel fortresses that are connected to each other, many players have expressions of surprise and even excitement on their faces.

  The broad and huge body is located on the wasteland, and behind the towering crawler are ravines extending to the horizon, with no end in sight.

  Whether the grass or the towering trees, whether it is a broken road or a deserted country house, there is a pool of gravel and rubble under its feet.

   There is no road ahead of it.

   Where you go is the road.

   Looking up at the towering fortress, as a Tumu dog, [Leaving the Man under the Sword], like the other players next to him, raised his head and widened his eyes.

   In front of such a magnificent engineering miracle, he only felt like a small primitive man, looking up to an unheard of miracle.

   Even though people keep reminding me that this is just a game, the immersive shock is not adulterated at all.

   Adam's apple moved for a long time, and he only squeezed two words out of his mouth.

   "I rely on..."

   This is too shocking!

  Ye Shi, who was standing not far from him, raised his head and said, "Damn it". However, the shock he felt was completely different in meaning from what he felt under the knife.

   "...This expansion pack is too conscientious!"

   It’s really rare for games to take out good things during the beta testing stage.

   Players follow the NPC to move on.

When they arrived at the operation camp next to the "Pioneer", they happened to see the huge land-based fortress, unfolded a gantry crane-like structure, and used a mechanical cantilever to remove a container-like module from the body and deployed it at a distance from the steel The platform is about five meters away from the open space.

   Dust billows.

  The staff in gray coats stepped forward, pulled out an arm-thick pipeline from the side of the fortress platform, connected it to the module just deployed on the ground, and then entered the parameters on the touch screen.

   Power input.

   The equipment started to work, but there was only a humming sound, and I had no idea what was going on inside.

   The two survivors who served as assistants beside Old Luca opened their eyes wide and exchanged shocking glances with each other.

"what is that?"

"The production workshop," happened to hear the conversation between the two, and Captain Lu Yang smiled and said, "that should be a carbon dioxide trap, which produces starch and glucose. We will deploy a long-chain alkane and olefin production in a while. . The last thing to put down is the production workshop for melting alloys and machining."

   "But this is not in a hurry. After your people have finished resting and set off, we can continue to deploy here!"

   The deployment of this modular production workshop will raise a lot of dust, and they will try to choose a time when there are fewer people in the operation camp.

   The two natives looked at each other in dismay. They didn't understand what the man dressed like a tin can was saying, and they didn't understand why they had to wait for them to set off before continuing to deploy.

   Old Luca understood a little, but only the second half.

   As for what CO2 traps, long chain alkanes, alkenes, etc…

   It's like some kind of garbage that is hard to pick up.

  …

   The action camp where the players are stationed is next to the action fortress, less than 100 meters away.

   All barracks were "sprayed" with heat activated polymer, so it only took one night to cover.

  These houses look like concrete from a distance and feel like plastic. Although they are light in texture, they are not bad at all, and they are quite warm and sound insulation.

There are 5 rows of barracks. The structure and layout are very similar to the prefab houses on the construction site. They are divided into upper and lower floors. Each floor has 22 single rooms. There are more than enough tables, and it is more spacious than the room in the Refuge.

   In addition, there is a public bathroom and toilet for men and women in the center of the barracks, and a water tank for water storage on the second floor.

   Including the public area in the middle, the entire camp covers an area of ​​15 acres, which is equivalent to a playground with a runway of 400 meters. The floor area ratio is still acceptable, and it even looks a little more spacious than the players' outposts.

  The perimeter of the camp is patrolled by two quadrotor drones and two remote-controlled all-terrain crawler vehicles, responsible for clearing approaching gnats or other threats.

   Seeing Li De at the gate of the barracks, Luca's expression was a little restrained, but thinking that he was representing the manager, he still straightened his back.

"Hello dear sir, I'm Luca from Vault 404, I send you my best regards on behalf of my host. During the cooperation, I will be in charge of liaising with the residents of the Vault, if you have any needs , can be conveyed through me.”

   Although it was strange that the title Master appeared in the shelter, Li De didn't say anything.

  The East Coast is not without slaves. The lower-level employees of some enterprises are nominally employed, but they are no different from slaves. If they do not work, they will be cleaned out of the staff dormitory soon, and once they are cleaned out, they will die.

   Of course, the benefits of middle-level employees are still acceptable, not to mention his level.

   In order to prepare the first pioneering corps, the Silver Wing Group spent a lot of money, and their living standards are almost the same as when they were on the east coast, even better than when they were there.

  The only fly in the ointment is that it is far from home.

  Looking at old Luca, Li De nodded.

   "I have learned about the situation from the liaison officer, and my colleagues will communicate with you about the next work arrangement."

   said, the man standing next to Li De smiled and stretched out his right hand.

   "Hi, my name is Werther! It's a pleasure to work with you!"

  Old Luca quickly shook his hand.

   "Hello! My name is Luca..."

"I heard it just now, relax, I came out of the shelter too, but it's been a few years. You can treat this as your home, and you can contact me if you have any questions." Werther frowned, it seemed is a funny guy.

   "That's fine, I'll leave it to you here, and I have to urge our engineers."

  Li De patted Werther on the shoulder, then nodded to old Luca again, and left with Captain Luyan beside him.

  Old Luca's expression was somewhat restrained.

   He wanted to say that although he was carrying the VM, he didn’t actually come out of the shelter, but he felt like it was a bit redundant.

   But Werther didn't care, he skillfully took out a folding computer from his pocket, pulled open the flexible screen sandwiched in the middle, and began to hand over this newly completed mobile barracks with him.

"Long story short, this operational camp is now yours. During the cooperation period, we will be responsible for your safety, and our water trucks will also deliver water for you free of charge. There are plumbing pipes in the barracks, which are connected to the boilers of the central functional facilities of the camp. , very easy to use, just boil the water, and the residual heat can also be used to heat the water for bathing. However, we are only responsible for delivering water, as for the firewood or coal for burning water, I am afraid you have to find a way."

"But this is easy to solve. The most important thing in the vicinity is wood, and there is a forest if you go west. But I suggest you try to collect it from the east. Our fortress has flattened a lot of wood on the way here. It can be used for recycling.”

"Also, today's work. Our scouts found an underground garage in a community hospital in an abandoned town to the north that contained about 2,000 car wrecks of high recovery value. We needed to remove their frames, doors, Wheels and hood and suspension...all recyclable metal."

"Our marines have cleaned up the aliens there, and your job is to use the equipment we provide to cut and disassemble the recyclable parts of the vehicle, and then press the dismantled parts into cubes and install our transporter."

"Due to the terrain, our transport vehicles can't go deep into the urban area. The road conditions there are too bad. You will know when you go there. In short, it is about 800 meters from the community hospital to the resource point. I am afraid you will have to use carts for this distance. Human transport."

"That's all for work. If there are new arrangements, I will notify you. It's ten fifteen, you can settle your people first. We leave on time at 12 noon and return at 6 p.m. You don't have time to eat during this period, you'd better prepare dry food."

   "If you need to buy materials, you can count them to me. You now have a budget of 600CR, and today's remuneration will be settled at 12:00 in the morning."

   Luca nodded.

"no problem."

  …

   Players were quickly assigned rooms.

After the    cookware was delivered, Luca immediately issued a mission to the VM, recruited several professional life players, set up a large pot in the middle of the barracks, and started cooking on a fire.

   At this time, the water truck responsible for delivering water just came over, and used pressure pumps and water pipes to inject water into the water tank in the center of the camp.

   When filling the water tank, two drivers from the logistics department took out two buckets of freeze-dried food from the car and poured boiling water into it.

  This kind of food is very convenient. It can be eaten after boiling water. It has carbohydrates, protein and vitamins. It is hygienic and nutritious to eat, and there are five flavors to choose from.

   Generally, if there is still work to do in the afternoon and they are too lazy to take the elevator back to the fortress, they will use this thing for a meal.

   In fact, they heard before that the logistics department originally planned to deploy mobile kitchens on the ground, but the residents of these shelters actually refused, saying that it would be better to pay them directly.

  I really don’t know what these blue jackets think!

   In short, after hearing that their allies wanted to cook by themselves, their stingy boss canceled the plan to deploy a mobile kitchen.

   After all, most of the time, their people dine in the fort, and only rarely came out on duty.

   For the lunch of just a few people, it is really not worth putting a big guy down to cook, so it is better to send some money to pass.

   leaned against the door of the waterwheel.

  The two drivers watched the residents of the shelter who were cooking in large pots, while waiting for the freeze-dried food to soak, chatting one after another.

   "What are they doing?"

   "It looks like you're peeling a potato? Is that a potato?"

   "I heard it's called croissant, probably a mutated potato... You see, they're starting to boil water."

   "Firewood for cooking? It's primitive enough, let's use an electric stove anyway. But then again, why didn't they just throw the potatoes in the pot, but put them on top?"

   "Maybe I want to cook the potatoes with steam...I suddenly got a little curious, can the food made like this taste good?"

   The two suddenly looked at each other in tacit understanding and said in unison.

   "I'm going to exchange with them." X2

  …

   There was a long queue at the camp.

  The tomato scrambled eggs with a spoon, stood in front of the pot and shouted.

   "One share per person, everyone has it, don't jump in the queue and don't panic! We are all Ou Huang who is the first to experience the expansion! Don't let the OB sand sculptures in the forum see jokes."

   finally arrived, WC really has a mosquito holding a lunch box in his hand, and tears are streaming down his face.

   "I miss it so much! It's been a long time since I had a big pot of rice made with tomato scrambled eggs!"

   Ye Shi, who had just received his share, also sighed.

   "Hey, miss +1, which version does it start from, and our respected administrators don't care?"

  WC really has a mosquito holding a lunch box and said.

"I remember! After the currency system was created in Alpha 0.3, you had to spend money to buy food! Thinking about it, I really miss it. At that time, everyone couldn't cook, so I bought a potato and squatted in the square and hugged it. !"

   "Yes, yes, haha, I remembered it! Later, only after the North Gate Market was marked out, did the professional players run over to sell stewed vegetables."

   "Unfortunately, Boss Crow does not sell mushrooms that can see villains."

   "Speaking of which, what about the crow boss?"

   "I guess she didn't grab it. She never catches up with good things."

   At this time, two NPCs in gray coats came over, they seemed to be the two who drove the waterwheel just now.

"Hey."

   One of them raised his hand and said hello.

   Mosquito and Ye Shi looked at each other and looked at them both.

   "What?"

   One of the NPCs pointed to the bowl of uneaten lunch in Ye Shi's hand, and then pointed to the bucket of "instant noodles" in his own hand, and said something.

  Although I don’t understand, but even monkeys understand body language, plus facial expressions and tone of voice, there is basically no problem in guessing.

  Mosquito: "He seems to want to trade with us?"

  Ye Shi: "Should I change it?"

   Mosquito: "Bullshit, change it! Why not change it? Taste their food."

   Ye Shi's eyes lit up: "Good idea!"

  The two players happily handed the lunch box in their hands to the two NPCs who drove the waterwheel, and then took the instant noodles in their hands.

   thanked each other in their own languages, and the two NPCs quickly slipped away.

  Ye Ten and Mosquito ignored them, and couldn't wait to lift the lid of the instant noodles.

   "I see what's inside?"

   "Instant noodles? It doesn't seem like it?"

   "Damn! How many dried vegetables did they put in? What are these?"

   "Seriously suspect that they mixed noodles with freeze-dried vegetables!"

   "But it smells pretty good."

   "Brother scrambled eggs' mashed potatoes are delicious! Hey, it's a pity, Teng Teng is not here. Since scrambled eggs brother stopped cooking and became a butcher, she hasn't eaten it for a long time, right?"

   took the box lunch from the residents of the two shelters, and the two NPCs took it apart as if they were treasured, and clumsily dug a lump of mashed potatoes with a wooden spoon and stuffed it into their mouths, with a surprised expression on their faces.

"this is not bad!"

"Not bad!"

   "Mash the croissant and mix it with soy sauce and minced meat? This tastes a bit like potatoes, but it doesn't look like it. It's amazing."

   "This stew is also howling! What kind of meat is it?"

   "Don't worry! Anyway, it's more energetic than vegetable meat!"

  The two of them devoured the meal, their faces still full of contentment.

Returning the lunch box to the shelter residents, they looked at each other and immediately reached a consensus. They quickly went back to get two buckets of instant noodles, and excitedly found the shelter residents who had just received the lunch box. The lunch box in their hands flickered over.

   This is the first time the players have seen such a strange thing, and they never thought of rejecting it, and decisively handed the lunch box in their hands to the NPC.

   After devouring the food again, the two NPCs finally returned to the waterwheel with satisfaction this time, and drove the waterwheel that had been empty for a long time back to the garage next to the "Pioneer" outside the camp.

   "After so long away from the East Coast, this is the first time I have eaten such delicious food!"

   "Me too! Compared to that croissant mashed potato, those dried vegetables are just rubbish! Tui!"

   "Agreed! Why can't our kitchen be able to make a little earth food? Is it difficult to upgrade the program? We can grow potatoes!"

   was counting the supplies that were about to be handed over to Vault 404. Li De happened to hear the conversation of the two who came out of the garage, and his expression was slightly stunned.

   Croissant mash?

  Dried vegetables are garbage?

   What are these two idiots talking about.
