This Game Is Too Realistic Chapter 104: More NPCs and richer interactive systems
www.lnmao.org, the fastest update to the latest chapters of this game is too real!
After the order was issued, the survivors quickly demolished their shacks and headed to the brick factory in the northwest.
Although they had come from there before and now they were forced to go back, no one had any complaints about the arrangements made by the administrator.
Being able to escape from the dungeon of the looters alive is already a lucky thing in itself, not to mention being able to be clothed and fed.
When Fang Chang and Lao Bai, who were measuring the land in the brick kiln, saw this fight, they stopped what they were doing and walked up to the manager and asked.
"Dear managers, may I ask who these people are..."
Chu Guang said without hesitation.
"These people are all survivors who were saved by us. In order to repay our life-saving grace, they are willing to support our construction!"
Joy suddenly appeared on the faces of Fang Chang and Lao Bai.
The players have all gone to do the novice tasks. They are worried that there is no one to do the hard work. It can be said that these labor forces have solved their urgent need.
"How much do we need to pay them?"
In fact, there is no need to pay them wages.
But since the players took the initiative to request it, Chu Guang thought for a moment and said it out of authenticity.
"One silver coin per person per day. I will deduct this payment directly from your account. You just need to ensure that they do not go hungry or freeze to death."
"In addition, pay attention to construction safety. I don't want to reduce the number of workers due to poor working conditions. This will not only affect our regional reputation, but also delay production."
"If there are casualties, 100 silver coins will be deducted from each person as a pension."
Of course, this pension cannot be paid to NPC, it is just a set-level constraint.
Besides, these aboriginal people don't care about these metal pieces. To them, this kind of gadget with no recycling value is better than giving them a piece of meat.
While speaking, Chu Guang sent the pre-edited tasks to Lao Bai through his VM.
Although it is a bit far from the outpost, it does not affect the point-to-point information transmission between the two VM devices.
After triggering the task of hiring NPC workers, Niuma Brick Factory will automatically pay 23 silver coins from the account every day as the "wages" of these employees.
Compared to the players' wages of at least 10 silver coins per day, hiring these NPCs to do work can be said to be very cheap.
As soon as Fang Chang and Lao Bai came together, they happily agreed.
Of course, in order to prevent these players from being less human than themselves, Chu Guang added another sentence immediately afterwards.
"The minimum food standard per person per day is one pound of green wheat. Of course, this is only the minimum nutritional standard. If you want them to work harder, you can purchase more meat and fish, or even go to the city to hunt for them yourself. Give them some game."
Can feed NPCs!
Good guy.
This game not only has management elements, but also development elements.
Fang Chang and Lao Bai's eyes lit up, and they immediately spoke confidently.
"Don't worry, manager, we will definitely feed the workers until they are fat!"
"Yes! Even if I am hungry, I will not let them starve!"
Emmm……
It doesn’t have to be so exaggerated.
Eating too much is actually not conducive to work. There is such an example in the outpost.
But Chu Guang didn’t say anything.
Exploration itself is part of the fun of the game.
These players will naturally find a suitable path, and it is enough for them to grasp the general direction.
It is neither realistic nor necessary to control everyone's life.
……
The 23 survivors settled down in the brick factory, and their identities changed from refugees to brick burners at the outpost.
They set up camp very quickly. It took less than an hour to build a replica of the shack they built in front of the south gate.
Although it looks a bit crude, it is no problem to protect it from wind and rain.
For survivors in the wasteland, quickly building a shelter that can block wind and rain is almost a must-have talent.
On the contrary, players are not very good at it.
Even the self-proclaimed "garbage picker level 99" has never picked up garbage in reality. At most, he has only gone downstairs to take out the garbage.
Watching these survivors build the shacks, Chu Guang found Zhao Shu and a survivor from outside Qingquan City, gave them an NPC-specific VM respectively, and appointed them as foremen to take charge of Communicate with players.
If other survivors have any opinions, report them to the player as soon as possible. In special circumstances, you can use the "mission system" to ask the player for help.
However, the mission rewards of different NPCs have fixed gear restrictions, and players cannot be given money at will.
This is similar to other MMORPG games.
The highest level Chu Guang set for the two foremen was 2 silver coins, which could only be released every 72 hours. The lowest level is 5 copper coins, and the CD time is 24 hours.
If there are any difficulties in life, such as a leak in the shed and fuel is needed, the lowest level of tasks can be issued to the player. If someone is sick or injured, you can issue a task with the highest reward level.
Of course, Chu Guang did not tell these NPCs the name of the "mission system" and its true meaning. He only told them in the abstract how to use these functions carefully and seek reasonable answers from those "omnipotent" blue coats. s help.
Like other NPCs, every time a task is released and every conversation with players is recorded in the VM.
Chu Guang will ask Luca to come over from time to time, use VM to collect the data, bring it back to the outpost for archiving, and review the data with the assistance of AI.
Only through this data, Chu Guang can easily understand what exchanges and interactions the players have had with the aborigines, and can also easily check whether these NPCs have published anything that is "inconsistent with their own personas and identities." " mission.
If there is, Chu Guang will deal with that "BUG".
"There will definitely be loopholes in the newly implemented rules. It just so happens that there are few people in the closed and beta phase, so you can slowly try and make mistakes."
Looking at the retreating figure, Chu Guang touched his chin and thought.
"...By the time we reach the internal testing stage, we should be able to form a relatively complete NPC and player interaction system."
Hmm.
As expected of me!
After everything was arranged here, Chu Guang left with satisfaction.
……
Wasteland time is 6pm.
After Lao Bai went offline, he immediately went to the forum and opened a post.
"It's so awesome! Niu Ma Brick Factory will officially open from tomorrow! There is a big opening promotion, and all orders placed tomorrow will be 10% off! Players who want to build a house, what are you waiting for? Hurry up and place an order!"
At this moment, it is 6 o'clock in the morning in reality.
Generally, forums are empty at this time, but the official website of "Wasteland OL" is just the opposite. This spot usually has the most people.
Fried eggs with tomatoes: "What is your daily production capacity?"
Lao Bai: "No more, no more. Currently, it is no problem to produce one or two thousand yuan per day. We will strive to produce tens of thousands per day before the end of the month! (Baring teeth)"
Fried eggs with tomatoes: "Awesome!!"
Thunder King Professor Yang: "Boss, give me a ton!"
Bangfeng: "Our bricks are not sold by the ton. The specifications and sizes are fixed. They are sold by the block. 100 bricks are 1 silver coin."
Ye Shi: "Brother Feng is an honest man. What nonsense are you talking to Professor Yang? He is not even qualified for closed beta testing. (Funny)"
What do you mean to me? "Smile, 100 bricks cost silver coins? Please take a pen and do the calculations. Building a house requires hundreds of millions of bricks, right? Not to mention the distance, our two-story building It only cost 500 million yuan to build a 2-story bungalow. How about millions of silver coins to build a house? I heard that you only need single-digit silver coins to complete a task? Haha, your game is quite realistic."
Irena: "Brother, is your home called the Forbidden City? And then you have to ask for tickets when you go back? (Funny)"
The man in the sword said: "Hahaha, let's face it, the Forbidden City doesn't use that much, it's only 80 million yuan. But the size of the mortar bricks is much larger."
Irena: "I just said it casually. (Funny)"
The toilet with an internal area of 2.5*2m is 3 meters high, and the wall area is 27 square meters. 96 bricks for an 18cm wall, 2600 bricks are more than enough.
Even if most players choose to share houses and build a larger, higher-rise townhouse, the per capita cost will not exceed 5,000 bricks.
100 bricks are one silver coin, and the per capita price is 50 silver coins. This price is still very reasonable.
In the later period, when the demand for bricks increases, the price may increase, but the increase or decrease is limited to 100%. Unless the NPC warehouse in charge of prices adjusts the base value, the price will only increase to 2 silver coins at most.
After all, if it were more expensive and everyone would start thinking about building houses with wood, then the gain would outweigh the loss.
Brother Ye Ao is still the same as before, as unruly and uninhibited as his ID. He pretends to be cool and runs away without paying any attention to anyone.
After all, he was a favorite of the editors, so no one paid attention and continued the topic smoothly.
Trash Picking Level 99: "Boss Bai, I am a newbie. I have no money. Can I get a loan on credit?"
Lao Bai: "No, brother, we are just working people, and most of the shares are in the shelter collective. But it doesn't matter if you don't have money. Welcome to the brick factory. We suddenly have a bunch of NPCs here. It’s quite interesting.”
Ye Shi: "Indeed, if you catch prey for them, they will not only say thank you, but they will also immediately set up a big pot to stew the prey, and then add the best leg meat and the first bowl of meat Let me share the soup with you. These NPCs are as if they are alive. Hey, I have played so many games, but in this game, the interaction between players and NPCs is the most comfortable I have ever seen, and the details are the most awesome!"
Trash picking up level 99: "What the hell? Are you so stupid? Wait, are the NPCs you have there rescued by us from predators?"
Fang Chang: "Yes."
The construction site boy and Brick: "Nice!! The front and back are actually connected!"
The mole on the run in the canyon: "I'm crying with envy! We are still doing tasks for NPCs, and you have already started to use NPCs!"
Ward's athlete's foot, Levin: "It's a shady thing! I don't care, our steel plant must have it too! Otherwise it's a shady thing! (Crazy)"
WC really has mosquitoes: "Shady story! Goblin technology also needs NPCs!"
Ye Shi: "Go, go, you want an NPC with a hammer to use as a suicide bomb? I advise you to be a human being."
Fang Chang: "Well, it's actually not as exaggerated as you think. Most of these NPCs cannot interact with each other. They can only say 'thank you', 'yes', 'obey', and 'burn'." Brickworkers' or something like that. I looked carefully and found that only the NPCs wearing VM equipment are truly interactive, and the rest don't look very smart."
The Mole on the run in the canyon: "Well, that's pretty much what I thought. This would indeed be more reasonable. If all NPCs could interact, the server of this game would be awesome."
There are few people now, just a brick factory with cows and horses.
When the number of players increases in the later stage, even if the ratio of NPCs to players is 1:10, it will be enough for the server to explode.
Bangfeng: "...I think virtual reality technology alone is powerful enough."
The Mole on the run in the canyon: "Let's not talk about this for now. Have you tried communicating with the interactive NPC? Did it trigger any special dialogue? Or hidden tasks or something?"
Fang Chang: "...Hidden mission?"
Mole on the run in the canyon: "That's right! Normally, don't NPCs with rich text usually have hidden tasks to do? Isn't that what is written in those virtual reality online game novels? Haven't you ever tried it?"
Fang Chang was silent for a long time before replying.
"...Well, of course I tried, but it seems that there is no intention to trigger the task? They are just brick-burners. The task assigned to us by the manager is to let them build brick kilns."
The Mole on the run in the canyon: "Hey, you still lack imagination! This kind of MMORPG, let alone a role like a foreman, even a plain-looking old hen at the entrance of Novice Village only has a clucking sound and other It’s different, maybe it’s a hidden boss! Forget it, it’s useless to tell you so much. I’ll go online and try it myself later.”
Fang Chang: "...I warn you, don't act recklessly. It will affect the production of our brick factory, which is a big problem!"
The fugitive mole in the canyon: "Hey, no, no, no, I just want to have a chat with him! I promise not to touch your NPCs!"
Tail: "Oh, that sounds interesting, bring a tail!"
Sisi: "Oh, charge!"
……
Ever since he was thrown into the dungeon by the looters that day, Zhao Shu never thought that he would one day come out of the dungeon alive.
To be honest, life now is like a dream to him.
With comfortable quilts, warm fire pits, and abundant food, they only need to work 16 hours a day, and the rest of the time is their own.
Not only that, but those very capable blue coats could occasionally catch one or two wild game for them to eat.
To be honest, Zhao Shu felt flattered every time he took game from the shelter residents.
They have seen how cruel these people are.
Even the predators behaved like chickens in front of them, not daring to take a breath. This was the first time Zhao Shu saw those ferocious evil spirits with such frightened expressions on their faces.
In his understanding, predators are already at the top of the food chain.
"Hey, what's your name?"
Hearing a resident of the shelter talking to him, Zhao Shu immediately stopped, glanced skillfully at the VM worn on his left arm, and read in a non-standard pronunciation.
"Hello, my name is Zhao Shu and I am the foreman here. How can I help you?"
These strange pinyin were taught to them by the old Luca a few days ago. It is not difficult to learn the pronunciation of each phonetic symbol, but it is a bit difficult to pronounce.
Hearing him speak, the surrounding shelter residents instantly became excited.
"He can talk!"
“It’s really interactive!”
"Dude, can you call me Ollie? Please."
"Get out! Brother, don't listen to him. Do you have anything to hide? Tell us and we will help you solve it!"
Zhao Shu looked confused.
His VM was unresponsive. It neither told him what these people were talking about nor how to respond.
According to the request of the administrator, he remained silent, but the residents of these shelters surrounded him reluctantly and kept mumbling.
Zhao Shu panicked.
He was worried that his behavior of ignoring these people would anger them and possibly lead to death.
After all, this is an era when life is thinner than paper.
He does not think that his life is more valuable than the people in front of him.
At this moment, Zhao Shu suddenly remembered another sentence the manager told him before leaving.
If these shelter residents are surrounding him and refuse to leave, click the gray circle button in the upper right corner of the screen and read the pinyin of the line displayed on the screen.
Dear no hesitation, Zhao Shu immediately complied.
After swallowing, he said with a stiff expression.
"My fellow workers are starving. We need a fish. Can you help us?"
Hearing these words, the players gathered nearby were so excited that they almost cheered.
"Oh oh oh! It's done!"
"Is the keyword 'task'? Well, try using other syntax next time to see if it can trigger a similar effect."
"The mission requires fish, right? Okay!"
"It's displayed on my VM! I'll pick it up - Gan! Why is the reward only 5 copper coins?"
"Maybe part of it is favorability? Is it a loss to exchange a fish for 5 copper coins? Which of you has ever sold fish?"
"What the hell, I've accepted the mission. Any fish will do, right? Let's go to the fishing guy at the lake and steal one!"
"gogogo!"
Zhao Shu didn’t know what he meant, nor did he understand the players’ answers, but it didn’t take long for him to get a fish.
And this fish is not small, as long as an arm. The powerful fish tail keeps slapping it from left to right, splashing water everywhere.
Zhao Shu swallowed again.
This time I am greedy.
But having said that, he still did not forget the manager's teachings. He quickly clicked the green check mark on the VM and read out the words displayed on the screen.
"Thank you on behalf of the worker brothers and have a nice day, generous sir, this fish is a big help!"
"We have no more trouble for you to help with, or can you come back tomorrow?"
Hearing this, the players surrounding him left with disappointed expressions.
That night.
Zhao Shu, holding a steaming fish soup in his hands and eating with his coworkers, thought for a long time but still couldn't figure out what he said at that time to make these blue coats disappointed like that.
But he didn't dare to ask any more questions.
Those blue coats are big shots.
The only one who can control them is the manager who always carries a hammer.
The administrator has repeatedly stated that they are prohibited from revealing any clues about the mission system, and they are also prohibited from communicating with the residents of the shelter on this matter.
How dare Zhao Shu disobey that adult's order? He swore that he would not reveal a word even if he died.
No matter what, this fish stew is quite delicious. Add a few pine cones and salt to it and cook it, it is extremely delicious.
After finishing the bowl of fish soup in our hands, everyone became more energetic at work!
