Chapter 18: Chapter 18. Obviously, I Made The Appointment First

Since these players are so self-conscious, Lucius feels that it is better not to control them too much and let them play freely.

After he piled up the materials beside the elevator, Lucius returned to the shelter, called out the manager system, and soon a pop-up window showing the task completion appeared in front of him.

【 Congratulations to the host, completing the daily task: hoarding wood, reward: reward point +2 】

【 Congratulations to the host, completing the daily task: burning cement, reward: reward point +5 】

The completed daily tasks add up to 7 reward points, which is not enough for an intermediate blind box.

But Lucius didn't care.

His players have already finished the cement, and now the food reserves are more than ten kilograms, and soon he will be able to recruit a few more players to come in as free labor.

"System, all reward points, all exchange for primary blind boxes!"

The reward points in the manager's allowance are instantly cleared.

The alloy door on the wall opened, and the conveyor belt began to roll, sending out the rewards from the blind box.

Five lollipops, one chocolate 200g net, and one bag of table salt 500g net. Like the previous ones, all without expiry dates and labels.

How much does this first-generation manager of shelter like to eat sugar?

Looking at the five lollipops and chocolates, Lucius didn't know how to complain for a while.

But this white table salt is a good thing. Lucius reached out to pick it up, with a look of unexpected joy. The salt that can be bought on Beit Street is coarse salt shipped from Boulder City. This kind of white salt is usually expensive, and ordinary survivors can't afford it.

"It would be nice to have more!"

This amount is not bad for cooking, but it is a bit wasteful for making bacon or sausage.

Of course, it might be a good choice to take it for trading. This baihuahua refined salt can be exchanged for at least 10 times or even 20 or 30 times the weight of coarse salt. However, there are other risks as well.

Valley provinces are inland provinces. Such things as salt are second only to the huge profits of arms. Without enough strength, it is a bit unreasonable to want to do this business.

After confirming the rewards, Lucius then opened the player list and confirmed the players' offline time yesterday and today's online time.

To his surprise, Bunny actually upgraded?

"Cut down a tree and upgrade it?"

Lucius was startled.

Previously, the development progress of these players' gene sequences was 0, but the development progress of Bunny's gene sequence has been increased to 1%.

The corresponding level is LV1.

But Lucius thought about it, and he was relieved. The physical work of chopping down trees is also equivalent to a kind of exercise. In addition, Lao Bai's genetic sequence is also a strength system, so it is not surprising that the development progress has risen.

You don't have to fight to gain experience.

While the latter is a relatively short cut...

Close the system interface.

Sitting in front of the computer in the resident hall, Lucius logged into the background of Wasteland OL's official website.

Before setting the reservation threshold, you need to fill in the delivery address and phone number and register an account to make an appointment. Lucius had already prepared for the slowdown or even stagnation in the number of reservations, but he did not expect to open it today. The number of reservations has increased from 35 Got to 45.

Good guy.

Are there so many living people in the Cowboy Club?

Surprised in his heart, Lucius then boarded the Penguin, opened the game group called Cowboy Club, and found some clues after looking through the chat records for a while.

It turned out that just yesterday, a large number of newcomers flooded into the group, and the number of group members has soared from over one hundred to over two hundred.

Most of these newcomers were invited by group friends to watch, and many of them were group members, active in major game groups all year round.

Now in the end game circle, an urban legend about 'Fully immersive virtual reality online game'" has begun to spread.

Although most people sneered at it after hearing it, there were always one or two who believed it and worked hard to find the 'Cowboy Club' to join in.

Everyone is not sure if the dog managers have united to work together, but in short, the official website is doing well.

——Historical chat records——

Quit Smoking: [ Why are there so many newcomers in the group suddenly? ]

Picking Up Trash Level 99: [Bosses! How do I pre-order that game? Want to spend money? ]

Quit Smoking: [ What the hell? Are they all here for the Wasteland OL? ]

Get Up Ten Times A Night: [ The group name can be changed to Wasteland OL player group. ]

Bear Hugger: [ The closed beta stage does not cost money, I don’t know in the future, just register an account and fill out a form to queue up. As for when you can get in line, look at your face... Hey, I am convinced, I really believe it. ]

Quit Smoking: [ Night Walker brothers! You were online last night? Is there anything new to test?? ]

Get Up Ten Times A Night: [ Tested, after a whole night of testing, we made the cement out, haha. You can ask Tomorrow Seeker, I'm going to class, let's talk back. ]

Quit Smoking: [ Cement??? ]

Picking Up Trash Level 99: [ Isn't it picking up trash??? ]

There was a lot of chatter in the group for a long time.

Lucius skipped the long list of nonsense and turned to Tomorrow Seeker's speech.

Tomorrow Seeker: [ To be honest, this game's performance in terms of authenticity exceeded my expectations! Unlike most sandbox construction games, in Wasteland OL, logs will not turn into wood by themselves, and synthesizing charcoal is not simply a matter of throwing wood into the furnace to synthesize it with one click. Instead, you need to build a charcoal kiln first. The firing method is basically the same as in reality. The same is true for making cement. There is no one-click synthesis workbench, but you need to start by burning plant ash. ]

Quit Smoking: [ What the hell? so real?! ]

Tomorrow Seeker: [ Yes, it is so real! The combat system has not been tested yet, but as far as the sandbox gameplay is concerned, Badass Bunny and I have not found the upper limit of this game yet! ]

Tomorrow Seeker: [ Theoretically speaking, all the materials we have access to so far can be modified according to the physical and chemical rules in reality, and these modifications to the map environment are still permanently preserved! Will not be refreshed! This is what surprised me the most! ]

This reminded him of Death Stranding, a 'Pseudo-Sandbox Game' that builds roads all over the world.

However, this game is not just about building roads. It has more interactive content than the pixel-style 'Mi', but the picture is unambiguous, and it is even more fake than the photo-quality racing game 'Horizon 4'.

Especially that immersive experience. It was something he had never seen before. In a word, he blows up this game!

Bear Hugger: [ Oh, I laughed. It's really so awesome that I can build my own city on the wasteland. ]

Keeping People Under The Knife: [ I don't believe it either! too outrageous. ]

Badass Bunny: [ Stop bragging, you'll know when you enter the game. This game is the most lovable game I've ever seen. All materials are hand-made, and it doesn't support hanging up. Playing other games, you can turn on the computer and hang up to kill monsters all night, but in this game, you will be so tired after chopping a few pieces of wood that you can’t even lift your hands! ]

8th Level Gale: [ Indeed, I have a deep understanding of this. ]

Quit Smoking: [ Hastily, I really want to play after hearing what you guys said! ! ! Wuwuwu Brother Light, I know you are spying on the screen, I kneel down for you, please give me a chance!!! ]

Lucius continued to scroll through the chat records.

The dog managers and group owners who have obtained the beta test qualification are basically blowing the rainbow fart of 'Wasteland OL', such as 'sandbox gameplay', 'annual hegemony reservation', and the like.

There are also some greedy players who interrupted from time to time, "One hundred thousand is a lot of money to buy the internal test qualification", "One hundred thousand is too little, I will pay one hundred million", and so on.

Then, the group of friends chatted about survival in the wilderness. It may be that they became interested in the gameplay description, that many players who did not believe that 'full immersive virtual reality online games really exist' also participated in the discussion and even made suggestions.

Among them, Lucius is most interested in a guy whose ID is [ WC Really Has Mosquitoes ].

Looking at the time of joining the group, this old man has only joined the group not long ago and is a newcomer. While others were talking about games, he was talking about the eighteen uses of wood in a serious manner. Burning charcoal, making furniture, those are the most basic.

Among other things, he mentions the 'Retort' of wood. The specific principle is that during the process of baking wood to make charcoal in a closed container, a large amount of combustible gas and smoke rich in various organic chemical components will be released.

Collectively known as 'Char,' these complex mixtures were chemical precursors to many chemical products—until coal tar and petroleum became widely available. According to the description of this group of brothers, by filtering the collected condensate, a water sample solution composed of acetic acid, acetone, and methanol can be obtained, as well as a thick tar-like residue.

Both are complex mixtures, but both can use fractional distillation to extract different organic chemical components. Needless to say, acetic acid and methanol, acetone is a good thing. Not only can it be used as an organic solvent, but it can also be used to make smokeless gunpowder!

When he saw this, Lucius was shocked.

"This guy is engaged in the chemical industry?"

He subconsciously clicked on that person's head portrait, and then clicked on the space. The space was not locked, so it was easy to get in, but there were no chemical-related things inside, but some advertisements for furniture and building materials.

All right……Looks like a furniture seller. Knowing so much about wood is probably out of interest. However, his knowledge might come in handy here.

After thinking about it for a moment, Lucius suddenly had an idea in his mind and threw him a private chat pop-up window.

"Friend, are you interested in joining the closed beta?"

It's nine o'clock in the morning in the wasteland, and it should be nine o'clock in the evening in the parallel world. It's the time to be high, and it's impossible to fall asleep.

Sure enough, the brother named [ WC Really Has Mosquitoes ] sent a question mark.

[ ?...Who are you? ]

Lucius typed.

[ I am the planner of Wasteland OL. ]

WC Really Has Mosquitoes: [ F*ck? ! Are you the planner? ]

WC Really Has Mosquitoes: [ Brother, how to test? Want money?? But I have no money. ]

Lucius explained patiently.

[ No need to spend money, just fill in a form, I will send you the link. ]

Although WC Really Has Mosquitoes was full of doubts, but he still clicked on the link and filled in the address and phone number on the official website reservation page. It's just that when he filled in the address, he still kept an eye out for it, he wrote the post station in the community, and didn't write the house number.

WC Really Has Mosquitoes: [ Then what? Is there any other program? ]

Light: [ No, send me the appointment number, I will mark it for you in the background, and I will notify you when it goes online in three days. ]

It takes three days to make a clone.

Just when Lucius was thinking, now that there are carpenters, what talents are still missing in the outpost, the group news suddenly exploded. Opening the group chat, it turned out that [ WC Really Has Mosquitoes ] just finished filling out the form on the front foot, and then went to the group to pretend to be aggressive.

WC Really Has Mosquitoes: [ Hahahaha, This Grandpa got the qualification for the closed beta test!!! ]

Quit smoking: [ What the hell? F*ck!! ]

Quit smoking: [ Why! Obviously, I made an appointment earlier! ]

The group news exploded in an instant.

Looking at the long string of small red dots, Lucius's scalp felt numb, knowing that he would not be able to dive, so he quickly came out to explain.

Light: [ Don’t be impatient everyone, the closed beta is also for everyone’s game experience. At this stage, we need to test whether the various systems of the game are complete, so some players with special field knowledge are needed to act as guinea pigs. ]

Quit smoking: [ I can also be a guinea pig! I have seven years of driving experience! ]

Keeping People Under The Knife: [ Cut, you are considered a bird with seven years of driving experience, and I can also drive an excavator! ]

Bear Hugger: [ You all stop arguing, you didn't realize that there are no real WC Really Has Mosquitoes till yesterday, then where did he come from? Maybe it's the trumpet of the dog management! What a fully immersive virtual reality game, rubbish! It's all fake! ]

Yellow Sand: [ The space doesn't look like a trumpet...]

Quit smoking: [ Brother Light! I kneel down for you! Give it a chance! ]

Light: [... just wait for a few more days, there will be a hundred qualifications released in a few days, believe me, everyone will have a chance! ]

The group members were in high spirits again.

Lucius tried to calm the emotions of the group of friends, but found that it was useless at all. At this moment, other management is in the game, and they can't control this side at all.

It won't work like this...

Otherwise, give another qualification?

Lucius stroked his chin and began to think.

Anyway, there are about ten kilograms of food stored in the base. With a gun, you can hunt immediately. It should be no problem to have two more pairs of chopsticks...

By the way, food!

Lucius's eyes widened suddenly, and he was typing on the keyboard.

Light: [ By the way, we still lack a chef here. In order to test the cooking system. ]

What Lucius didn't expect was that after he sent this message, the quarrel in the group became even more motivating. Not everyone knows woodworking, but the threshold for a chef is too low. Who doesn't know how to make two dishes and one soup these days?

Regardless of whether the meeting is real or not, the old buddies in the group are better than the other, such as "I can make Barbecue Chicken with my eyes closed", "Spicy chicken, my dog ​​can know it" all ran out, just He almost boasted that he was the reincarnation of the God of Cookery, and the God of Cookery descended to earth.

In order to qualify for the beta test, these netizens did everything they could, but they couldn't beat Lucius.

How should I choose this!

The debate lasted for half an hour, and it didn't subside until an old man posted his New Oriental certificate.

This thing is indeed more convincing than bragging.

Lucius immediately announced the ownership of the sixth beta test qualification. After asking for the appointment number in a private message, he went offline at the speed of light.
