Chapter 31 Encounter a predator! The player's first battle!(1/2)
Acetic acid, acetone, and methanol are widely used.
If Sanctuary Outpost wants to start industrialization in a real sense, these chemical raw materials are indispensable.
Although it was temporarily useless, Chu Guang still gave the player [WC Really Has Mosquitoes] a reward of 1,000 contribution points, and announced his outstanding contribution to "successfully preparing acetic acid, acetone, and methanol using wood as raw materials."
By the way, does this count as a server-wide announcement in an online game novel?
Seeing the proud face of [WC Really Has Mosquitoes] and the envious expressions of other players, Chu Guang felt that he had to maintain this fine tradition.
Um.
Not just in games.
It should also be announced on the official website!
In the future, you can also create a hall of fame and record in it "such and such player achieved a certain achievement on such a certain day of such a certain month and year."
This kind of achievement can be solving a development problem or clearing a difficult copy.
As a poor ruler, a cheap sense of honor is the only cost-effective reward he can give players.
After finishing the matter, Chu Guang took Ye Shi and Jun Jun along the elevated highway out of the city outside the wetland park and continued to explore north.
While searching for traces of prey, look for valuable exploration targets.
The industrial clusters in Qingquan City are mainly concentrated in the southeast corner of the city, distributed in a fan shape along the Third Ring Road and the Second Ring Road.
The northern part where Linghu Wetland Park is located is mainly residential area, and you can even see many unfinished properties along the road out of the city.
In addition to relatively complete public supporting facilities such as education, medical care, and transportation, this area has not formed a large-scale industrial cluster. There are only some small light industry workshops scattered in the suburbs far away from residences, and are neighbors of garbage incineration stations.
Now, they are mostly covered by forests.
When the nuclear war came, the northern suburbs of Qingquan City had almost no direct hits from strategic weapons due to their large population base and extremely low strategic value.
However, after the total collapse of order, a huge number of refugees brought disaster in another sense to this place.
Supermarkets, convenience stores, markets, and shopping malls were quickly robbed, followed closely by hospitals, schools, office buildings, and even all the shops along the street, and even every refrigerator and locker in the house.
No shelter would risk its own safety by opening its gates to admit them, and it was impossible. Moreover, the traffic was completely paralyzed, making it difficult for these people to leave here.
Even today, two hundred years later, you can still get a glimpse of the tragedy that happened here through the bullet holes and broken glass in the wall.
There are still incompletely weathered skeletons hanging on some display windows, beside shelves, and in trash cans.
"Hiss...this is too miserable."
Looking at the two skeletons, one big and one small, that were hugging each other, the garbage man couldn't bear to look away and closed the open door of the trash can.
Ye Shi's reaction was quite calm. After all, this was not the first time he followed Chu Guang on a long trip. He had long been accustomed to the situation here, and even made a few comments pretending to be an old player.
"One thing to say, the scene design of this game is quite good... It's like being in a post-apocalyptic world."
"This is originally the world after the end of the world."
Chu Guang replied casually, carefully observed the situation in the shop window, and made a mark on the paper map.
This should be a clothing store.
However, there were not many clothes left on the shelves, and the only two rags hanging were covered with black mold.
Apparently, scavengers visited here a long time ago.
And there have been more than one wave.
"...I think our efforts are in vain," Ye Shi sighed, "Obviously, everything here has been looted."
"You can always find something useful...like this thing." Chu Guang found an unopened box of sewing kits from behind the almost shattered cabinet, and threw it into Ye Shi's hands.
The needle should be made of alloy material, and the thread should be made of rayon. If it has not been opened, there will be no problem of oxidation. It can be used even if it is two hundred years later, let alone two hundred years.
What the outpost lacks most at the moment are these gadgets.
Teng Teng might be interested in it.
With nothing more to search, the group prepared to evacuate the store.
However, at this moment, a shrill howl suddenly came from the distance, followed closely by two gunshots.
It sounds like a 5mm bullet.
Chu Guang was instantly alert, took off the iron barrel rifle from his back, hid under the shadow of the wall, and carefully followed the source of the sound.
On the street corner not far away, under a tilted billboard, a man in a gray coat was shot and fell to the ground, moving back with a horrified look on his face.
Blood seeped out from his back and flowed all over the floor.
"...scavenger?"
After waiting for a while, another figure came around the corner.
I saw a gunman wearing an animal skin coat, chewing on half a cigarette, holding an iron pipe rifle made of garbage in his hand, and walking towards the man lying on the ground begging for mercy.
Behind him were a man and a dog.
I saw that the accomplice was also carrying a similar-looking rifle in his hand, a fire ax hung on his waist, and a dog leash on the other side.
Chu Guang's pupils shrank slightly.
It only took less than a second for him to quickly determine the identities of the two people.
Predators!
"What's going on outside?" Ye Shi came over from the side and asked in a low voice.
He thought he had become quieter, but his concealment skills were still more than a little weaker after all.
"Shh!"
Just as Chu Guang had time to make a silent gesture, he saw the mutated hyena with an iron chain around its neck instantly turned its head and barked twice in his direction.
Chu Guang's expression changed instantly.
Damn it!
This beast’s skill points are all enhanced with perception?!
In the flash of lightning, the two plunderers also looked over instantly, reacted very quickly, raised the rifles in their hands and started shooting.
Snap!
After two consecutive gunshots, Chu Guang quickly retracted his head, but soon he realized that he was simply worrying too much.
Most of the DIY rifles have no rifling.
A block away, I felt lonely. As expected, several bullets landed on the cement road without even touching the door next to me.
"There's a firefight?! What's going on?! Have we encountered mutants?!" Mr. Garbage, who was hiding in the shop, didn't panic at all, and even excitedly rubbed his hands.
The same goes for Ye Shi, who immediately pulled out his javelin.
"Don't panic, I'll take a look first -"
"Look at the fart!"
Seeing that these two guys were not afraid at all, Chu Guang's nose was almost crooked with anger, so he used his hand to hold Ye Shi's head and push him back.
"It's a predator! Both of them have guns and a dog is following them! You retreat through the back door and we will meet in front of the bus stop three hundred meters due south -"
"Dear Manager, why do we need to retreat? There are just two people and one beast on the other side, and our people are no less than them!" Jun Jun clenched his fists, "We can also fight!"
"That's right! We can fight!"
Ye Shi also nodded excitedly, picked up the crossbow that the manager had just dropped, and said with high morale, "Although we only have one gun, we still have Molotov cocktails... and this two-meter-tall lizard, I don't believe it.
He can't beat a dog."
Upon hearing this, Chu Guang, who was nervous, came back to his senses in an instant.
yes.
What are you running for?
In the past, I was alone, with my head tied to my belt, and was clearing wasteland outside. It was normal for me to hide away when I encountered such vicious bandits.
Now if you want guns, you have guns, and if you want people, why don't you just run away like a chicken!
What's more, there are two people opposite.
Chu Guang's reaction was also very quick, he made an immediate decision, and at the same time he pulled the bolt of the gun and loaded the bullet.
Fuck him!
"You, take the Molotov cocktail and go over there." Chu Guang threw the Molotov cocktail and the matches into Ye Shi's hand, and pointed diagonally across the corner of the street.
"Pay attention to my command. When my gun fires, you can light it and throw it away!"
The other party doesn't know how many people are on their side. If they see someone rushing out, they will definitely chase them.
Ye Shi was stunned for a moment after taking the Molotov cocktail.
"How should I get there?"
"Run over, or do you still want me to carry you over? Don't worry, their guns have no rifling and can't hit you." As he said that, Chu Guang reached out and pushed him.
To be continued...
