This Game Is Too Realistic

In the Bull and Horse Club.

Quit Smoking: Have you seen the updated content on the official website?! The background stories of the three major forces are all out!

Ample Time: We saw it, and have already discussed it in the group earlier.

No Love: Light said that he just created a folder, so don’t get too excited. Otherwise, you will look very stupid.

Tomato Eggs: There are already three full map forces before the close beta test, and the map of the regional force Boulder Town has not been fully opened yet. Based on this, it is reasonable to suspect that there will be seven big map forces after the public beta test.

No Love: Light would kindly remind you not to think too much. Otherwise, he would delete the newly created folder. (Rolling eyes)

Night Ten: When did brother Light say that? ( ͡

Mosquito: No, no, you guys are too shortsighted. Just wait until version 8.0 or something, the administrator will definitely burn down the shelter, and then we will get the two old expansions back.

Gale: It’s forbidden to reuse old memes.

Old White: By the way, with the sudden joining of a NPC from the Academy… Does it mean that this game is going to release the bionic prosthetics function?

Ample Time: It’s hard to say, and I just checked it in game, the newly added NPC does not have a function of selling prosthetics. No matter what you say to him, it can only trigger a dialogue asking if you want surgery.

Night Ten: +1, I also tried it just now, and if you annoy him too much, he will ask you if you want to check your brain. Sure enough, Xiaoyu is the cutest. ( ͡

Mosquito: Why Xiaoyu, don’t you think the stammering Boss Xia is also very cute?

Gale: I didn’t expect a small game group to have two kinds of perverts at the same time.

Ample Time: Anyway, although the NPC that can perform surgery has been added into the game, Gale, you still have to be careful. After all, the surgery fee for reinstalling the implant is 50 silver coins. And if the implant is damaged, the repair of the mechanical prosthesis will require an additional charge

Night Ten: Say… Do you think Light will arrange a plot kill to test whether there is a bug in the reinstallation function of the implanted prosthesis? ( ͡

Old White: Huh? Your thoughts are novel enough... But you are right. Otherwise, why did Gale get a mechanical arm all of a sudden?

Gale: What the fuck? You guys, don’t give Light strange ideas! (horrified)

Ample Time: Ahem, that’s enough guys. Don’t scare Gale so much that he wouldn’t dare to go out.

Quit Smoking: Hahahaha!

...

On level B2 of the shelter…

Yin Fang was sitting in the cafeteria, eating.

The food of the day was fried rice with shredded corn and pork. It tasted very delicious, and it was probably the most delicious food he had eaten in the past six months.

The only fly in the ointment was that he was surrounded by a bunch of people.

They looked at him curiously like watching the monkeys in the eco-garden, as if it would do them any good.

Thinking that the administrator had told him that it was only temporary, and he just needed to ignore them for the time being, Yin Fang didn’t take it to heart. He only thought that those ignorant natives had never heard about the academy before. 𐍂

After a quick meal, he sent the plate to the food collection cart, where there was an automatic washer that would dispose of food residue and oil, and use ultraviolet light to sterilize and clean.

He then headed to the shower in the public area.

The showers here were gender-segregated and paid to use. Chu Guang had given him 10 silver coins for his daily living expenses, which was enough for him to live a normal life in the shelter.

However, something that completely pissed him off soon happened. These stalkers not only wanted to watch him eat, but also wanted to watch him take a shower!

What’s wrong with those people!

Don’t they have it themselves?

"That’s enough! If I see any of you follow me again, I swear I will remember your face, and stitch your face onto your butt next time!"

What was what the administrator told him to say if he couldn’t take it anymore.

He said that if someone kept following him and harassing him, he just needed to say that sentence, and they would disperse immediately. But he also warned him not to use it too often. It was best to use it only once a day; otherwise it would not work if he used it too often.

Yin Fang guessed that this sentence was probably some kind of unpleasant curse. But the syllable was really long; if it was not for his good memory, he may not be able to remember everything.

However, what Yin Fang didn’t know was that after those players left, they went to the forum to talk about him.

"This new NPC is a bit too powerful! He can stitch your face onto your butt!"

"Damn, what happened to him in the past?"

"According to my statistics, this dialogue will be triggered after 31 minutes and 71 seconds of following him."

"What kind of experience is it like to have your face on your butt?"

"Emmm… Do you want to try it?"

On level B1 of the shelter.

Now that the number of players had reached 500, there were always people walking in and out of the lobby. In order to prevent players from secretly playing with his computer, Chu Guang moved everything to the empty room beside his own.

After asking the carpenter to make a set of solid wood furniture with a simple style, he transformed it into his Administrator’s Office.

After all, NPCs needed a little privacy.

Being watched by players all the time, Chu Guang would also feel strangely uncomfortable.

"I have had enough of this! Don’t those residents of yours have nothing else to do? No matter what I do, they’ll still follow behind me! Don’t they have any manners!" Walking into the Administrator’s Office, Yin Fang complained to Chu Guang with a frustrated expression.

"Now now, this is their way of expressing their welcome, it’ll be over in two days... Do you want a glass of milk?" Chu Guang pointed to the electric kettle, which contained hot milk, at the corner of the table with his index finger.

"Thank you, I’ll have some... By the way, do you have capsule coffee here? Or freeze-dried coffee. I’m not very picky."

"No," Chu Guang picked up a disposable paper cup, poured him a glass of milk, and handed it to him, "The conditions here are not that great. We are still in the early stages of rebuilding our colony, so I hope you will understand."

Taking the cup of hot milk from Chu Guang, Yin Fang held the cup in his hand and took a sip, feeling a little more comfortable.

In fact, life was already pretty good, at least much better than the days he spent on the run.

Once he accepted his fate, he found that moving in was not as bad as he thought.

There were almost many advantages in the shelter. The only problems he had encountered so far were that there were too few people he could talk to, and he couldn’t stop those shelter residents from following him.

"Speaking of which, your shelter number is still within the three digits, right? So it’s quite unbelievable that the facilities and supplies within this shelter are so lacking."

"Does this have anything to do with the number?" Chu Guang asked casually.

Yin Fang nodded and said. "Of course! It has everything to do with the number. Generally speaking, a shelter with a single-digit number will receive more funding than a shelter with a two-digit number, and a shelter with a two-digit number will have more funding than a shelter with a three-digit number. As for the shelters with four- and five-digit numbers, and private shelters that don’t get a serial number… They usually have very poor funding and limited resources, and some couldn’t even be completed in time.”

As a D-level prospector, he understood this all too well.

Those valuable things were usually found in the shelters with the three-digit and two-digit numbers. In terms of those four-digit or five-digit shelters, it was already not bad to be able to scavenge some remaining resources. After all, most of the supplies had already been consumed by the survivors who lived there decades ago.

Chu Guang, who was staring at the computer screen, raised his head. "From what you said, I’m starting to wonder what exactly happened at the end of the Prosperity Era."

There were so many shelters that the number used by those shelters had actually been extended all the way to five digits, and that didn’t even count those that didn’t receive a number!

How many shelters did the Federation of People build in its last few years?

While being amazed by the sheer amount of the shelters out there, Chu Guang skillfully operated the mouse and threw a few nuclear bombs that took him a few rounds to build at the base of his neighboring enemy, Old Man Gan.

There haven’t been any good games to play lately, so he could only download Civilisation 6 and replay it.

Of course, it was mainly for the purpose of drawing inspiration.

Hearing Chu Guang’s words, a helpless expression appeared on Yin Fang’s face. "This is also something we have been investigating. The war seems to have happened suddenly without any warning."

"Is there no one who survived from that era?" Chu Guang asked hesitantly.

Yin Fang replied, "There are, and there are actually quite many. There are even old popsicles that have been frozen and hibernated from that era to the present, but they also don’t know exactly what happened. They will just keep asking us when they can go home... We speculate that some information should have been controlled, or the Federation of People didn’t think that the war would actually break out, otherwise the number of shelters would probably be even higher."

Chu Guang gave him a strange look. "This sounds contradictory. Even if the information was controlled, did no one wonder why there were nearly 10,000 shelters?"

Yin Fang made a helpless expression. "You have to understand it in the context of what was happening during the period of time. After entering the Prosperity Era, there has been no war on this planet for a long time. The crises we envisage include more than expected sunspot activity, the impact of lunar development on tidal effects, the ecological crisis caused by the excessive expansion of urban areas, and even the contact with extraterrestrial civilizations... They just never thought that one day in the future, they would do stupid things that they hadn’t done for a long time again."

After pausing for a second, he continued, "Plus, there’s a limit to the amount of information the human brain can process every day. When you’re in an age of information explosion, and there are millions or even hundreds of millions of things that are more worthy of attention, it will make you feel like..."

"You’re in a cocoon?" Chu Guang added suddenly.

"Yes, that’s the feeling, it seems you understand it quite well." Yin Fang glanced at Chu Guang unexpectedly, "Speaking of which, I’ve always wanted to ask... What category does your shelter belong to? Cryosleep? Or one of community?"

Chu Guang’s eyes glanced around, and he answered ambiguously. "I don’t think it’s either of them. But it’s better if you don’t delve too deeply into this issue."

Seeing that Chu Guang didn’t intend to discuss it with him, Yin Fang shrugged helplessly. "Okay… You can carry on doing whatever you feel like, I’ll go back to my room to rest."

Chu Guang refocused on drawing inspirations, and said casually. "Okay, remember to close the door for me."

Learning from the players, Yin Fang imitated the tone of the others here.

"Yes…"

"... Dear administrator."

...

The next morning in Longevity Town.

Luca came to the refugee camp early in the morning, and found Jiu Li, the person in charge. "We need 30 capable laborers. We will offer them 2 silver coins and three meals a day."

Although there were meals in the camp, that kind of watery porridge was not delicious food, and all it could do was to stop people from starving to death.

The day before those people hired a butcher from them, and it was said that he not only lived in a house with heating, but also had meat to eat every day.

They were willing to do jobs like that even if there was no salary, not to mention two silver coins.

Jiu Li didn’t think much, and immediately nodded in agreement.

However, out of responsibility for those who trusted him, he still asked one more question. "No problem, but may I ask what kind of work it is? And are there any specific requirements?"

Luca thought for a moment before he replied, "There aren’t any requirements. As long as you have strength, and you can do hard work, then it is fine. Our administrator wants to build a cement factory in the south to produce cement for building houses and roads. In addition, we also need some people to clean up the obstacles on the path between the Longevity Town and the Linghu Wetland Park, and transport the recyclable items to the designated location for processing. I will arrange their work, so you don’t need to worry about this.”

Jiu Li said with a sigh of relief when he heard that it was not dangerous work. "Give me ten minutes, I will find the people you want."

Luca nodded and said. "Mhm, when you find enough men, you can bring them to the east gate, I will wait for you there."

After receiving the task, Jiu Li did not dare to delay. He quickly found his brother Jiu Xun, asked him to select thirty men capable of heavy work from the camp, and brought people to the east gate.

When Jiu Xun brought people to the east gate, there were already more than 20 people gathered there.

Seeing those people, many refugees including Jiu Xun, had a trace of anger and fear on their faces.

"It’s from the Army."

"Really?"

"There’s no mistake. Just look at their noses... Those from the army have a bulge in the middle of their nose. These people are at least squad leaders."

"These bastards!"

Regarding the hostility and fear of the refugees, the captives from the army all had a confused expression on their faces.

They were sure that it was the first time they had met with those refugees, but why did those refugees act like they had killed their fathers?

Noticing the commotion of the refugee group, Wrench stood before the group and yelled, "In our territory, we respect everyone who works, whether the person is a free man or a prisoner of war. No matter what conflicts you had with each other before, you all have to obey our rules, and anyone who violates our rules will not be tolerated."

The refugee group became silent.

They could already see that the twenty or so army’s squad leaders were all prisoners of the administrator.

To be able to capture more than 20 army’s squad leaders... they must have defeated at least two companies, or even one brigade!

Moreover, it must be an overwhelming victory that completely dismantled the opponent’s will to fight, making the opponent throw away their weapons and give up all resistance.

If it was a close battle, the members of the Army would not surrender so easily.

The strength of the survivors here to be much stronger than they had imagined!

Jiu Xun, who was standing in front of the labor team, was feeling fortunate. Fortunately, they didn’t break out in conflict with the survivors here.

Even the Army lost the fight to those in the settlement… He couldn’t imagine that he had a slight chance of winning, or a reason to win...
