Wasteland Code Survival Chapter 10: Material crisis


   Although I don’t know the function of this mechanical part, Qi Lin put it away carefully.

  Purple quality items are all extremely rare treasures. You can know the effect of the Serum King's Serum. What Qi Lin doesn't know is that, like the Serum of the Dead King, the human body mutations and mutations become evolutionary. The odds are simply dying. In the research institute of the refuge, most of the subjects who directly injected the serum of advanced mutant creatures died directly.

   Killing the mutant fathead fish and the experience of completing the task made Qi Lin rise to level 3. At the same time, the intellectual brain authority [task bounty platform] was opened. Qi Lin glanced at it, and as expected, the most conspicuous task was the one who offered a reward. It's just that the amount of bounty, if he can, he wants to kill himself to receive it, anyway, buying a resurrection opportunity only needs 10,000 resource points, and the bounty is accumulated to more than 20,000.

   Packed up the equipment, and said goodbye to the slurred one-armed zombie, Qi Lin returned to the off-road vehicle and found a safe and hidden place to get off the assembly line.

  The main brain of the refuge stipulates that everyone must be active in the game for more than 10 hours a day, and the rest of the time is allocated by themselves, or through work as usual to earn resource points outside the quota. Qi Lin until now , The game time is exactly ten hours and four minutes.

   must be in a non-combat state when offline, otherwise Qi Lin can use "offline escape" to avoid the edge at the gas station before. After offline, the backpack and personal equipment will disappear with the character, but the vehicle will stay in place, and the player can only take the vehicle's activation key.

   Therefore, Qi Lin pulled out a large piece of canvas used as a cushion in the off-road vehicle, covered it on the body, and evenly smeared it with loess. This way, from a distance, it looked like It's like a stone.

  After doing all this, he called out the virtual control panel in the game and chose "Leave Game".

  ……

   sat up from the game cabin, Qi Lin didn’t feel any discomfort other than feeling a little dizzy in his head. It seems that even the lowest-end game cabin allocated by the slums, the fully immersive technology used is quite mature. It seems that the top management and mastermind of the shelter should have this plan long ago.

   looked at the game pod next to him, Xiao Lei was still immersed in the game world, Qi Lin moved his hands and feet, planning to go to the black market first.

  The structure of the slum area of ​​the underground refuge is countless maze-like tunnels. Small rooms are opened on both sides of the tunnels to live in. The oxygen in the rooms is all rationed by the master brain, but the air quality outside the room is very high. Worse.

   turbidity, foul smell, low oxygen concentration, and a lot of harmful gases mixed in, anyone who wants to leave his room must wear a breathing mask.

   Qi Lin lived in this room of "Refuge No. 187 Room F37" three years ago, and Xiao Lei was a "roommate" who moved in half a year ago. According to the person who brought Xiao Lei, Xiao Lei’s Both parents were "excavators" and died in an underground tunnel collapse accident. After the accident, the residence of Xiao Lei's family in the middle area was taken back by the company, and he was randomly thrown to Qi Lin.

  Excavator is a kind of occupation among the residents of the middle area that is more onerous but relatively well paid. Their job is to open up new spaces underground and provide shelter for the increasing population. , And looking for mineral resources buried underground.

   In recent years, due to the fact that areas with relatively stable underground structures have basically been excavated, the upper level of the refuge has set the direction of excavation in areas with soft soil but deeper depth. Although these areas are dangerous to excavate High, but the chance of discovering the most precious resource-groundwater is also higher.

  Xiao Lei’s parents were buried in a dark abyss more than 2,000 meters above the ground with dozens of workers due to the bending and breaking of a supporting steel pillar. The six-year-old child was directly downgraded to the poor class, and the poor inheritance of his parents was swallowed up by the large consortium responsible for the excavation work.

   This is one of the reasons why Xiao Lei hates the rich so much.

  This situation is not uncommon in this underworld where the weak and the strong. This happens almost every day... However, under Qi Lin's persuasion, Xiao Lei did not join an uprising organization that came to solicit him after hearing the news. , But the other parents died there too, and all the children who were deprived of everything joined in.

   One week later, the plan of the uprising was exposed. The bodies of the children were hung on the wooden frame at the intersection of the tunnel, which made the air quality in the tunnel worse.

  "How do you know that the uprising will fail?"

   More than once, Xiao Lei asked Qi Lin this way, but Qi Lin could only smile and said that it was luck. He didn't know how to talk to such a sixteen-year-old child who was full of blood and said, that time The man behind the uprising was the mining company where his parents worked.

  Using the method of "creating an uprising" to eliminate instability factors is almost the same as the "fishing holding X" before the end of the world.

  ……

   bypassing the intersection of a few corpses with only white bones left, Qi Lin walked to a three-meter-high airtight door and knocked on the door panel.

   "Kala", a small window opened on one wall with a dirty display inside. After Qi Lin entered a few numbers, the airtight door slowly opened.

   This is to pay the entrance fee for the black market. If it weren't for this restriction, the entire underground black market would be full of beggars who came to "rub oxygen".

   After passing two airtight doors, Qi Lin suddenly saw his eyes open. A brightly lit underground square appeared in front of him, and his ears were full of shouts and bargaining sounds.

   "Take it, this is your admission ticket. You must leave after the time, you know the rules." An old doorman with a hunch back stuffed an irregular piece of paper into Qi Lin's hand. It was written with crooked charcoal "10 resource points, 19:50."

Below these words is an anti-counterfeiting stamp stamped out with a steel stamp.

  In an hour in the black market, five resource points must be paid to the controller of the black market, which means that Qi Lin must leave before 21:50.

   "I don't know if I can find something good today..."

   Qi Lin strolled to a stall in the square from the entrance, where they sold some common gun parts that were abandoned before or after the end of the world.

   These outside things are absolutely prohibited items, but they can be bought and sold in this black market. Even this is just one of the most insignificant commodities. It can be seen that the controller of this black market is definitely a very scary one. Big guys~IndoMTL.com~ But these have nothing to do with Qi Lin. His most important purpose in coming to the black market is to find some parts that can be used, and then use his extraordinary understanding of firearms to assemble Some finished firearms were sold out to weapons shops in the black market.

  He never sells weapons directly to the rebel army. This is just to be on the safe side. Although the price of the weapon shop owner is slightly lower, since the firearms he made became famous, the price of these weapon shop owners is also It won't go low.

   The guns produced by "Front sight" are all good guns. This is a fact recognized by Vault 187 and even several nearby shelters, and this "front sight" is Qi Lin's own trademark.

   The guns he makes will use a cross and a circle to depict a simple crosshair icon on the grip. This is Qi Lin’s habit. When he was a precision shooter in the mercenary army, every gun he modified Above, there is also a pattern of this sight.

   Although this sign appears in the weapons of the insurgent troops, it will be tracked by the refuge manager, but the general clues will be cut off when they reach the black market. This is one of the reasons why he never sells weapons directly to users. .

   One more middleman, the more security.

   Just as Qi Lin was squatting in front of the booth, selecting parts, he suddenly heard a few people shopping on the side suddenly say: "I heard that the material warehouse in Vault 188 was burned by the rebels. The entire refuge is in a material crisis, and it is about to transfer things from us."

   "Why? Let them starve to death!"

  ……

   Qi Lin didn't stop looking at the parts in his hand, but he was a little puzzled, burning the supplies? This is indeed a stupid idea, but in this way, I am afraid that something will really happen...
