This Game Is Too Realistic Chapter 263: The prototype of the mother nest and the recovered samples
www.lnmao.org, the fastest update to the latest chapters of this game is too real!
"What is that?"
On a half-collapsed pedestrian bridge.
Wearing a gas mask and a heavy cavalry exoskeleton, Commander Quanshui held a telescope in his hand and stared intently at the hundred-story tall building directly opposite.
The streets were filled with gray-green mist, making it difficult to see very far.
But even so, he could still clearly see a faint circle of dark red traces crawling in the middle of the hundred-story building.
According to the logo on the VM map, the name of this 100-story building is "New Era Data Center", and there is a subway station nearby named after it.
I think that more than two hundred years ago, this place should have been a lively place.
The three little players standing next to him also took out their binoculars and looked at the tall building directly opposite.
The battlefield atmosphere team murmured.
"It seems to be the 41st floor."
My darkest heart moved.
"Could it be the brood nest?"
The battlefield atmosphere team looked at the new guy in the team.
"You are an agility type, why don't you go over and have a look."
Zhang Hai immediately said unhappy.
"Don't do it! You are obviously going to die! I won't go, you have to go by yourself."
I shook my head and sighed.
"This new generation is too timid."
Zhang Hai rolled his eyes: "You're pretending to be a wolf with a hammer and a big tail. You're just one version earlier than me. Don't you blush!"
I am the blackest: "#@%!"
Commander Quanshui opened the VM, compared it with the description information in the database, and whispered.
“The mutated incubation chamber appears dark red, and the speed of spore release increases. The surrounding slime mold species will spontaneously move closer to the incubation chamber, and some of them will actively enter the incubation chamber and become nutrients for the incubation chamber to continue to expand the carpet... ”
There are indeed a lot of nibblers wandering the streets.
Although there is no obvious sign that they are moving in the direction of the incubation room, they do wander around the street in broad daylight.
The surrounding gray-green mist is probably caused by some kind of spore cloud!
With a hint of excitement in his eyes, Commander Quanshui immediately set a mark on the map and took a photo of the building with the headset hanging around his neck.
Photos are available!
"Done!"
After waiting for a while, the VM's signal light flashed slightly, and the seal of task completion was stamped in the taskbar.
Not only Quanshui, but the other three players in the team also received reminders that the mission was completed.
"Holy crap, I get 100 silver coins for taking a photo?!" Zhang Hai's eyes bulged.
One hundred more points to contribute!
This money is so profitable!
Although he is the kind of player who has mastered both the life profession and the combat profession, he mainly sets up a stall at the north gate and cooks ramen.
Today, after seeing the version update, I decided to pick up the hunter profession on a whim, so I randomly formed a team of passers-by, but I didn’t expect the mission benefits to be so high!
A bowl of ramen costs 5 silver coins. After deducting the cost of 2 silver coins, he would have to make 34 bowls of ramen to earn so many silver coins!
After discovering this busy point, Zhang Hai couldn't help but sigh in his heart.
The income of these professional combat players is too high!
As expected, the price of ramen also needs to be increased!
The little players next to me didn’t know it, and they were still smiling playfully,
I smiled the darkest way and said: "I understand, the answer is a camera!"
Battlefield Atmosphere Team: "Damn, your understanding is a bit enterprise-level!"
Zhang Hai looked at Brother Quanshui in high spirits.
"Brother, what's next? Are there any follow-up tasks?"
The battlefield atmosphere team has turned on the safety of the rifle, looking at the gnawers wandering on the street opposite, eager to try.
"What should I say? Do you want to go in and take a look?"
Quanshui shook his head and said.
"The mission does not say anything, it only shows that you can choose to stay on standby. Reinforcements are coming from the outpost...the estimated arrival time is one hour later."
Zhang Hai: "Damn? So long?"
Battlefield Atmosphere Team: "It's already fast. Now you can move directly from the B3 tunnel to the Huayuan Street subway station. Before, you had to walk on two legs. Just walking to Beit Street would take an hour or two!"
Commander Fountain checked the task bar.
"There is also a resource point search mission nearby. The coordinates are for an office building 230m away. One hour should be enough... How about we finish the branch line first and then come back?"
I am the darkest: "Ok!"
Battlefield Atmosphere Group: "I have no objection."
Commander Quan Shui waved his hand.
"Okay, let's go!"
……
In fact, it didn’t take more than an hour.
Whether it is a branch line searching for resource points or reinforcements from several kilometers away.
What Commander Quanshui didn't expect was that the reinforcements were unexpectedly luxurious.
Not only the managers in blue power armor, but also Miss Heya who usually stayed at home followed.
Standing on the half-collapsed overpass, Heya only glanced at it and made a judgment in a positive tone.
"There is no mistake...the carpet has already expanded to the outside of the building. If the carpet formed by these slime molds is allowed to continue to expand, they will develop into a new mother nest within a month at the latest."
Chu Guang glanced at Heya.
"Is it okay if you don't wear a gas mask?"
"It doesn't matter," Heya said with a normal expression, "A spore cloud of this level is just a bit of dust to me."
Okay.
Bionic organs are really convenient.
Chu Guang couldn't help but think that he would be able to do it himself when he had the opportunity.
Standing on the other side of Chu Guang, Vanus, wearing an orange chemical protective suit and a gas mask on his head, was also staring at the building in front of him.
After thinking for a while, he said.
"I recommend blasting the building."
Chu Guang looked at him and asked.
"Can the incubation room be eliminated by blowing up the building?"
Vanus said concisely and concisely.
"Not necessarily, but it will make complex problems simpler!"
“Slime molds have poor survivability in open spaces. Except for a few natural caves, it is almost difficult to see gnawers in the wild. To completely eradicate the hidden dangers caused by slime mold reproduction, the only way to completely clean up these concrete Garbage."
After a pause, Vanus added something later.
"This is what we do on the west side of the continent!"
Having never heard of such a crazy thing, Heya looked at him in surprise.
"This is crazy...have you considered the possible ripple effects of this?"
Blowing up a tall building is more than just talking.
These are concrete buildings that have survived nuclear explosions and have stood strong for two centuries. You can imagine how strong they are.
Ten thousand steps back, even if enough explosives are prepared to completely blow up the load-bearing structure, the fallen reinforced concrete blocks are unlikely to break into **** like tofu blocks, but more likely to form a line of dozens of A "three-dimensional maze" that is meters high and hundreds of meters long.
This might make the situation more complicated!
At least before the building is blasted, both the safety passage and the elevator shaft can reach the 41st floor.
As for Heya's surprise, Vanus's expression did not agree.
"First of all, we are conducting concentrated blasting on a large area. Secondly, of course we are not detonating the explosives and then leaving it alone."
"After the blasting is over, we will bomb with heavy artillery, use airships to drop incendiary bombs, and send out our clone troopers... until the source of infection is completely destroyed."
“Not only this concrete waste, but also the paralyzed underground transportation network and drainage system, we will also blast and demolish it.”
Heya couldn't help but said: "Maybe you just buried the problem where you can't see it."
Vanus shrugged.
"Maybe, I'm just providing a solution. This work has been carried out for two centuries, and at least in the areas where these strategies have been implemented, the results are pretty good."
There is no need for such high-density housing in the wasteland, and the population concentration effect caused by the huge maintenance costs is worthless here.
At least in Vanus's eyes, the only difference between these unused items and garbage is that the latter can at least be recycled.
And these high-rise buildings, after recycling the available resources inside, are left with endless troubles.
Heya looked at Chu Guang.
“I don’t recommend blasting the entire building. Unless you are 100% sure that you can completely remove the slime mold inside by blasting the building, otherwise the complex environment may make the problem more difficult. ."
"In short, no matter what you choose in the end, please provide me with at least one test tube sample! I need to figure out the biological process of these mutant slime molds from the incubation chamber to the mother nest. This is critical! It can help us Know our enemy!"
Chu Guang did not give Heya an immediate reply, but looked at the "chief contractor" at the outpost - Liu Xia Ren.
Among all the players, he probably knows the most about engineering.
"How many kilograms of explosives are needed to blow up this kind of building?"
Knife Ryuren frowned and thought for a long time before speaking.
"1.1 tons of T and 3500 detonators should be enough."
Chu Guang was slightly moved.
"So many?"
Leu Ren said with a wry smile.
"This is a conservative estimate...the actual amount of explosives needed may be more."
Tall buildings with hundreds of stories abound in Qingquan City, often reaching heights of 500 to 600 meters or even 1,000 meters. Especially towards the city center, the entire city is hidden in the clouds. In reality, it can easily hit the tallest building in the world.
Of course, Swordsman also admits that there is no comparison between games and reality. Only fools will go to the virtual world to find 100% reality, even if most operators will promote it this way.
However, assuming that the physics engine of "Wasteland OL" is professional enough, he analyzed it from a professional perspective. If such a high-rise building wants to withstand earthquakes and other possible natural disasters, it will not only be the strength of the cement that will It is two levels higher than real cement, and the amount of steel invested is probably astronomical.
While Liu Xia was calculating in his mind, Chu Guang was also calculating in his mind.
1.1 tons of explosives can make three thousand 100mm artillery shells!
Too expensive!
And this is still a conservative estimate...
If the building is blown up into a dangerous building and left here half-collapsed, it is simply a time bomb.
On the contrary, if you send players to carry out targeted elimination of the mutation incubation room on the 41st floor, the price you may pay is only some active materials, thousands of bullets and a few liters of fuel.
Thinking of this, Chu Guang immediately made a decision and issued the task through VM.
[Main goal: Destroy the slime mold incubation room located on the 41st floor of the New Era Data Center! 】
[Secondary goal: collect mutation samples! 】
After the mission was released, Chu Guang looked at the young players aside.
"We now have enough clues to prove that the spore cloud gathered in this area was released from the 41st floor of the New Era Data Center."
"In order to prevent the creep from further expanding and posing a greater threat in the area, we need to completely remove it before the wave comes!"
"This task is critical. It is related to whether we can respond to the threat of the wave more calmly, and we only have one week left."
"I need you to solve this problem within a week!"
Hearing the serious and urgent tone of the manager, instead of seeing any nervousness on the faces of Commander Quanshui and other players, they were filled with excitement.
Limited time mission?
And it’s also a main plot mission!
This is not much more interesting than doing daily branch lines!
"Don't worry, manager!"
Commander Quan Shui excitedly raised his right fist and knocked on the front armor of the six-type heavy cavalry exoskeleton, "For the revival of the People's Federation! For the peace of the northern suburbs! I will definitely fulfill our mission!" ”
This guy had all the good words to say, and the other players couldn't come up with the right words for a while. The battlefield atmosphere team had an idea and added another sentence.
"Me too!"
I, Zhang Hai, and the players who followed from the outpost also hurriedly followed suit.
"+1!"
"Me too!"
I am very happy that these players are so aware. A smile of approval appeared on Chu Guang's face.
"Yeah."
"The future of all of us depends on you!"
……
After the mission is released, the strategy operation begins soon!
A total of twenty players participated in the operation, and the captain was Commander Quan Shui, who had the highest "Command" skill.
The needed supplies were quickly transported from the warehouse on Beit Street to the target location by two-headed oxen.
After getting the drawings of the building from the scientific expedition team, Brother Quanshui did not take action immediately. Instead, after fully observing the surrounding terrain, he divided the twenty people including himself into four five-person teams ABCD and A careful battle plan was formulated!
"Group A serves as the forward, with the agility department as the team leader, and the perception department as the deputy team. They go straight from the elevator shaft to the 43rd floor, enter the room on the left side of the exit, and use explosives to blast the floor. Push down to the 42nd floor - directly above the incubation room!"
"Your mission is the most critical."
"I need you to deploy explosives directly above the mother nest, blow down the entire ceiling above its head, and then pour the prepared fuel to physically kill the slime mold in the incubation room!"
Hearing the mission they were responsible for, the battlefield atmosphere team clenched their fists excitedly.
"Exciting!"
Commander Quanshui continued to look at the other teams.
"Your mission is also important."
"Group B serves as the reserve team, with Kakarot, the awakened one of the power system, as the squad leader, cooperating with Group A to enter the building to fight."
"If Group A fails, you are responsible for taking their place."
Kakarot put the light machine gun on his shoulder and grinned.
"Received!"
Quanshui looked at the player next to him and continued.
"Group C serves as the cover team, and the captain is Lao Wang next door. Your task is to eliminate the aliens from outside the building to the elevator inside the building, guard the **** of Team AB, and cover their evacuation after the operation is over. Or, in When an accident occurs, recover their equipment and VM."
"Group D serves as the support team. I will personally lead the team to another building directly east of the building and set up four 20mm anti-tank rifles near the 40th floor to provide you with firepower from outside the battlefield. Support!"
"Above!"
Commander Fountain is very satisfied with his plan.
Making careful action plans is what he is best at.
However, at this moment, I suddenly spoke.
"Wait a minute, why are you outside the battlefield again? You are also an awakened person, right?"
Zhang Hai couldn't help but complain.
"That's it! You're wearing power armor, are you sorry?"
Other players also came to their senses.
Yes.
Why did this guy put himself in the back row again?
Commander Quan Shui blushed and argued.
"What kind of power armor is this? It's called an exoskeleton! Do you know what an exoskeleton is? And I'm from the intelligence department. Is there anything wrong with me sitting in the rear and commanding?"
Is there something wrong?
Nothing wrong at all!
The battlefield atmosphere team wearing the Miner I rolled their eyes and loaded the LD-47j with the drum in their hands.
"Okay, okay, don't explain, just hurry up."
After being a teammate for so long, he has long been used to this old guy.
Complaints are complaints.
Having a reliable conductor is very reassuring.
Each team began to move step by step. Group D encountered a little trouble on the way to the support point, but still reached the target location within half an hour.
Instructing the team members to place the anti-tank rifles by the floor-to-ceiling windows, Commander Quanshui said calmly through the communication channel.
"Group D is in place! Other groups are starting to take action!"
Three neat responses came from the communication channel.
"Received!"
The three teams waiting under the overpass immediately took action.
The five players who served as the cover team spread out in front of the team, skillfully raised the rifles in their hands, and used burst fire to kill the gnawers blocking the way forward.
The gunshots echoing in the street quickly attracted the attention of other gnawers. The bloodthirsty beasts quickly turned their attention here and rushed forward like wild dogs.
There was gunfire in the streets!
The battle is about to begin!
The creeper lurked in the ruins, its scarlet eyes locked on the people on the street, and it let out a dangerous growl.
Seemingly finding an opportunity to strike, it roared and jumped out from under the ruins.
If this were an ordinary mercenary team, they would have been caught off guard by this beast. However, what it faces is not ordinary people, but a group of players with rich combat experience!
The head had just emerged from the corner of the street when a thunderous roar came from the waist of the tall building on the east side.
The 20mm muzzle sprayed flames, and four long and thick tracers fell from the sky.
Two high-explosive bombs hit the monster's side, and two armor-piercing incendiary bombs hit the monster's back and shoulders respectively.
"Crack——!"
The shrill roar echoed in the street, and the newly emerged crawler stumbled to the side.
The warlord immediately seized the opportunity, raised the rifle in his hand and put a scratch on the beast's head, then freed his right hand and gave a thumbs up to the building behind him.
"Well done!"
The four teams cooperated very well.
In just three minutes, hundreds of nibblers have been cleared from the street. The three newbies waiting under the overpass received the mission and ran forward with supplies.
Send a supply of 10 silver coins and 10 contribution points.
Although I didn’t have a chance to shoot, it was good to go up and feel the atmosphere of the battlefield.
Whether it is profit or fun, this task is much more enjoyable than cutting down trees!
Looking at the players who had advanced downstairs of the building, Vanus had a surprised expression on his face and couldn't help but say.
"Are all the residents in your shelter military?"
This is not the first time he has had such an idea.
But the drone aerial footage that I saw on the screen several times before was far inferior to the visual impact of being at the scene in person now.
Looking at the flickering firelight inside the main entrance of the building, Chu Guang said in a relaxed tone.
"Some are, some are not, but that doesn't matter. The battlefield is the best teacher. No matter their starting point is 1 or 0, they all have the opportunity to become 10 here."
At first, players rushed in swarm, but soon discovered that the AI of some "monsters" had morale settings. Dividing into groups to conduct tactical penetration on weak links in the defense would be more effective than a simple charge.
Later, in addition to tactical interleaving, they also learned fire support, alternate cover, segmentation and encirclement, and used different types of tactics for different types of enemies.
Here, no matter how stupid you are, you should know what to do next time if you die once.
Vanus's expression was slightly dumb.
He always feels...
Why is this theory so similar to the clone tactics he learned in the military academy?
Where are the battle losses?
Don’t you need to think about it?
When did the blue jacket become so tough?
Vanus was puzzled.
Heya, who was standing aside, didn't care much about these details. Her beautiful face was full of excitement, but this had nothing to do with the battle situation itself, but that her suspicion had been verified.
"Sure enough, my guess was correct!"
“The increase in spore content in the air will make the fruiting bodies become more aggressive, and the formation of spore clouds will weaken the restriction of light on the movement of the fruiting bodies!”
"It's unbelievable!"
Chu Guang's heart moved slightly.
"If you use incendiary bombs to clear the spores in the area——"
Vanus shook his head and said.
"That would consume an astronomical amount of fuel, and it would only treat the symptoms but not the root cause. Only by eliminating the source can we fundamentally end the wave..."
The gunfire in the distance has basically ended, and the alien species on the first floor of the building have been completely eliminated.
Mengxin, who serves as the logistics team, sent the second wave of ammunition to the front line. The three teams that entered the building have already arrived at the elevator shaft.
There are still two loud explosions left before victory.
Averting his eyes from VM, Vanus looked up to the south.
That's the direction of the city center.
Behind the steel jungle, there should have been a blue sky, but now it is swallowed up by a gray-green cloud. From a distance, it looks like an endless sea of mist.
After a pause, he continued.
"Otherwise it will be like this, again every one or two years."
……
At the same time, in Boulder City more than ten kilometers away, a sharp and piercing alarm bell echoed above the streets, as if coming from the giant wall.
Crow Crow, who was shopping in the grocery store, was startled by the sudden sound of the alarm bell, and quickly looked towards the street outside the window.
There was a commotion among the pedestrians on the street, and many people quickened their pace. Several militiamen passed by on the street and seemed to be shouting something at the pedestrians.
Putting the glass bottle in his hand back on the shelf, Teng Teng stood on tiptoes and looked outside, but he couldn't see clearly, so he asked in a low voice.
"What happened?"
Crow Crow swallowed.
"I don't know."
Xu Shun, who was standing aside, was more nervous than the two of them, with his hands unconsciously put in his pockets.
Noting the reactions of several customers, the old woman sitting behind the counter smiled and spoke in a slow voice.
"This is your first time here."
Xu Shun, who was standing aside, nodded and asked immediately.
"Excuse me, what happened outside? Did something happen?"
"That's right, but there's nothing to panic about. It's just a wave... This isn't the first time."
Stretching out her trembling hands, the old woman picked up the bronze glasses on the table and put them on. Then she skillfully took out three gas masks from under the counter and placed them on the table.
With a genial smile on her face, she continued.
"Gas mask, 100% new, only 20 chips per set."
"If you don't want to get sick, you'd better buy one and wear it."
