This Game Is Too Realistic Chapter 345: You will be the city lord of Dawn City!

www.lnmao.org, the fastest update to the latest chapters of this game is too real!

"Hello, Mr. Dulong, respected director of the City Hall of Boulder City, I am the city lord of Dawn City——"

"Luca."

Shelter B4 floor, browsing room.

Luca, wearing a formal suit, is sitting on the sofa.

On the coffee table in front of him, there was a holographic computer pen. The light blue beams of light intertwined above the coffee table, forming a three-dimensional cone-shaped surface.

Through the light blue tapered surface, you can see the bay window of the director's office of the Boulder City City Hall, as well as the director sitting at his desk.

"The Lord of Dawn City..." Du Long frowned slightly, "Where is your manager?"

If the news was correct, he remembered that the most powerful person in the alliance should be the manager.

Who is the Lord of Dawn City?

And this Luca...

With that weathered old face, he felt more like a farmer than a city lord.

What are the managers of the new alliance doing?

He couldn't understand.

Not taking the change in Mr. Dulong's attitude to heart, Luca continued speaking in a gentle tone according to what the manager told him.

"Our manager is inspecting Dawn City and may not be able to return to Qingquan City in a short time. Since the communication situation there is somewhat unsatisfactory, in order to show his respect and attention to you, he entrusted me to conduct this meeting with you. phone conversation."

"When the manager explained this matter to me, he specifically told me that Boulder City is a neighbor and a friend of the alliance, so I must show our friendship during the meeting."

For this high-sounding wording, Du Long had a subtle disapproval on his face.

Friends?

What kind of thing does Boulder City need?

He originally wanted to say, "Since your manager is not here, let's wait until he comes back to talk," but thinking that it might take a long time, he swallowed his words again.

He didn't care, he would just have to wait, but what the Lord of Boulder City told him couldn't wait that long.

Dulong can be sure that if the New Alliance aircraft appears in the airspace of Boulder City again, the anti-aircraft guns will definitely fire.

If this friction turns into a war, he can be sure that the northern suburbs will turn into a scorched earth, and the militia groups will come out in force to seal the group of blue gophers in their turtle shells forever with steel bars and cement, but the huge stone The outer walls of the city will undoubtedly suffer huge losses.

Perhaps Mr. Fang Ming doesn't care what happens there, just like the inner city never cares what kind of life the residents in the outer city live.

However, Dulong couldn't help but care.

Not because he is kind-hearted.

But he knew very well that the nobles in the inner city were his masters, but the factory owners and chamber of commerce bosses in the outer city were his foundation.

"Since you think we are friends, I hope your planes will not appear in the airspace of our friends in the future. Your planes appeared on our radar. This time our soldiers maintained restraint, but next time they may Not necessarily."

Luca looked at him and said.

"This is a reasonable request. What is the scope of your airspace?"

Dulong said bluntly.

“Our airspace is within the Fifth Ring Road of Qingquan City, bounded by the Ring Road.”

"This is impossible," Luka shook his head, "Part of Shuguang City is also within the Fifth Ring Road of Qingquan City. We will respect your safety needs, but it must be on the premise of not sacrificing our own safety."

Dulong raised his voice.

"Mr. Luca, let me get straight to the point. This is the request of our city lord. Do you understand the meaning of the word request?"

Luca smiled lightly.

"Of course I understand, but our managers have said that if we make concessions on the issue of airspace today, we will have to compromise on the issue of territory tomorrow. We can ensure that our aircraft do not enter the Qingquan City West District Ring Road Inside, it’s limited to this.”

Dulong raised his eyebrows slightly.

As if he heard something interesting, he said with a smile.

"Territory? What use do I need your piece of crappy land?"

Picture that 10,000 to 20,000 acres of land?

How many dilapidated houses are there in the picture?

That would be too much to underestimate them.

Luca replied in a lukewarm tone.

"Although our place is a little run down, we are very satisfied with our home."

Dulong's tone contained a hint of ridicule.

"Don't you think that just because you defeated a few primitive people with fire sticks, you are qualified to negotiate terms with us?"

It was beyond Du Long's expectation.

The old man in front of him actually nodded.

This made him even wonder if he had seen it wrong.

"Of course, I have no doubt that we have the qualifications."

Looking straight at the director of the city hall, Luka continued naturally, "In fact, I am negotiating terms with 'you' right now, right?"

When he said this, he emphasized the word "you" very hard.

Dulong narrowed his eyes slightly.

He suddenly felt a little unsure.

"What do you mean?"

Luca said calmly.

"It's not interesting. Your army is very strong, but we are not weak either. Boulder City may be able to defeat us on the frontal battlefield, but we can ensure that our opponents will pay a heavy price."

"And the price must be 'you'."

This sentence deeply hurt Du Long.

The inner city has been neglecting the outer city for a long time. Everyone knows it, and he is no exception. He had no doubt that if there was a war, they would become cannon fodder.

Just like every wave.

But so what?

You need a "wastelander" to remind you of this kind of thing?

Du Long sat up straight and smiled angrily.

"Are you threatening me?"

The atmosphere at the negotiation table instantly dropped to freezing point.

Luca was also extremely nervous.

However, he did not show his emotions on his face.

Before the negotiation started, the manager told him that he should not show timidity or panic under any circumstances and should remain calm at all times.

The other party is very powerful. From their standpoint, "forced coercion" will become a convenient option, because security issues are a "pain point" for the vast majority of survivors' settlements.

Although Boulder City is the spiritual licker of Ideal City, after all, they are not rich enough to support themselves after eating, so there is no so-called moral obsessiveness.

It is dangerous to jump repeatedly near the opponent's baseline, but it is also fatal if you show too much weakness.

Catch the other person’s pain points, stop before the other person feels pain, appropriately give up part of the appeal, and find a range that both parties can accept.

This is also the significance of negotiation.

Looking at Dulong, Luka said slowly.

"Of course not. Dear Mr. Minister, we sincerely hope that we can live together in friendship and peace. There are enough tragedies in this world, including alien species, slime mold, mutants, cultists, and predators. We...the fire of civilization is lingering under the cover of barbarism. Living in such an era, we are really, really unwilling to reach the final step."

After a pause, Luka continued.

"...but sometimes, even if we are very reluctant, we must let others know that we are not intimidated, and the land we cultivate does not come from charity."

"Therefore, rather than a threat, I would rather you interpret my previous remarks as a response to the threat of war."

Dulong's eyes have narrowed to a slit, staring intently at Luca in the holographic image.

He is thinking.

Also weighing.

The meeting fell into silence.

Luca waited patiently.

At this moment, Du Long suddenly blurted out something that had nothing to do with the negotiation itself.

"Did you come up with these words yourself, or were your managers asking you to say them?"

Luca replied without thinking.

"Is there a difference? The manager's will is both the alliance's will and my will."

Dulong didn't say anything, just stared at the old man thoughtfully for a while.

After about half a minute, he slowly spoke.

"I don't agree with your sophistry about the 'threat of war'."

The subject changed and he continued.

"But I agree with your other sentence, there are enough tragedies in this world, we don't need to add meaningless sadness."

"For the sake of our future relationship, I think we need to talk openly and honestly."

Hearing this, Luka finally breathed a sigh of relief and smiled on his face.

"I thought so too."

……

Although the other party's arrogant attitude has not changed at all, being willing to solve the problem through dialogue is at least a good start.

The next step is to bargain.

Dulong thinks that this is his area of ​​expertise. After all, he was a businessman before becoming the director of the city hall.

However, what he didn't expect was that the other party's ability to mess around was not inferior to his at all.

At least it's not as easy to fool as he thought.

"...The North Third Ring Road of Qingquan City belongs to our airspace, we need to fight against the wave! What's more, our air force has shared some of the pressure for you, which is also good for you!"

"Your air force? Oh, just those paper planes? Why don't you just hire our planes? You haven't used them anyway. At the worst, I'll give you a 20% discount."

"Yes, we are paper airplanes, so why do you have to worry about us threatening your safety? Can't your mind even tolerate paper airplanes?"

"...North Fourth Ring Road to North Fifth Ring Road, this is our bottom line! At the same time, I need you to promise that the borders of the new alliance will not continue to expand southward in the future!"

"We can stop expanding southward, but in exchange, I ask you to stop banning the sale of new alliance products. We haven't banned the sale of your products, right?"

"The last impossibility is that the ban on the sale of LD-47 is a requirement of the 'Boulder City Military Industry'. I can only promise not to add new import and export restrictions to the list of fields other than the 'military industry'."

These conditions have met the expectations of the negotiation, but Luca still nodded in embarrassment.

"Okay, then let's maintain the status quo."

Dulong breathed a sigh of relief, and his tense expression finally relaxed into a smile.

"I'm glad we came to an agreement."

Verbal agreements cannot be counted.

The two parties will sign a specific agreement later.

As for the location of the signing, Dulong requested that it be held at the City Hall of Boulder City and invited him to visit Boulder City.

As for the trivial matter of the signing place, Luka did not insist on it under the instructions of the manager and readily agreed to his request.

In addition to airspace and trade issues, the two sides also discussed cooperation in multiple areas and reached consensus.

After the communication ended, Luka reached out and turned off the holographic computer. It was like he had taken off a million pounds of wrappings, and he leaned on the sofa and let out a sigh of relief.

"Well done!"

Hearing the sound of approval from the door of the browsing room, Luka immediately stood up from the sofa and placed his right fist respectfully on his left chest.

"Master Manager."

"No need to be polite, just sit down."

He motioned for Luca to sit down.

Chu Guang sat on the sofa opposite and looked at him with satisfaction.

To be honest, when I rescued him, I didn't think much about it at all. It was just out of random kindness.

In addition, I happened to need an honest and obedient person to help manage the warehouse and inquire about some information I didn't understand, so I took out a chip and bribed the farm guard who was executing the execution.

At that time, Chu Guang didn't expect much from him.

If nothing else, his greatest achievement in his life is probably to help manage the warehouse of the new alliance's outpost.

Like Guo Niu, Guo Ma and other liberated serfs who also joined the New Alliance very early.

However, Old Luka's performance at work exceeded Chu Guang's expectations.

Not only his loyalty, but also his precise understanding of his orders and his hard-working nature far exceeded Chu Guang's initial expectations.

Although he is less flexible as a serf, but compared to other wastelanders, this flaw is not a big deal at all.

Now it seems that that chip was well spent.

"I have to trouble you to go to Boulder City later."

"No trouble, it's my honor to serve you." Luka said respectfully.

Chu Guang smiled.

After a pause, he stopped his joking expression and continued in a serious tone.

"In addition, after you return from Boulder City with an agreement symbolizing friendship, you will be the city lord of Dawn City."

Hearing these words, Luka was completely stunned.

The city lord of Dawn City?

Didn’t you say that was just a title used during negotiations?

Luka said with fear.

"Sir, but I——"

Knowing what he wanted to say, Chu Guang interrupted him.

"Okay, I've decided on this! I see your ability in my eyes, and no one is more suitable for this position than you."

Luca has always been taking care of the long-term farm.

As for origin.

In Chu Guang's opinion, it's not a problem at all.

Rather, this can become a propaganda banner.

In the New Alliance, equality is not a slogan. As long as you can prove your ability and loyalty to the alliance, you can become the city lord of the settlement even if you are from a humble background.

Not bad.

Chu Guang is becoming more and more satisfied with his arrangement.

When he comes back, he will take the time to write a press release that can make people excited and send it to the people at Alliance Radio to promote it.

Although he still had some concerns about whether he was qualified for this important task, seeing that the manager chose him so firmly, Old Luca said nothing more and just hid his gratitude silently in his heart.

After taking a moment to calm down his breathing, he looked at the manager and said seriously.

"Sir... there is one thing I don't quite understand. Could you please help me?"

"What happened."

"Boulder City...why are they obsessed with Qingquan City's airspace?" Luka said with a trace of confusion in his eyes, "They clearly don't take our plane seriously at all."

You can't hide that deep-seated disdain.

The city hall director even used the term "paper plane" to describe the alliance's aircraft.

Although he was angry, Luka had to admit that this arrogance was not without reason.

The aircraft in Boulder City may not look good in front of the enterprise, but after all, they are products of the pre-war era. Anyone with a discerning eye can see that the big guy with a sense of science fiction is not at the same level as the small plane of the New Alliance.

"It's good that you thought of that."

Looking at the old Luka who was slowly enlightened, Chu Guang nodded approvingly, "The reason is actually very simple, because you are right, what they really care about is not the airspace at all."

Luca was stunned for a moment.

I don't understand the meaning of this sentence.

Chu Guang did not explain immediately, but reached out and gently pressed on the holographic computer pen.

The city map of Qingquan City was projected in the light blue light cone, and only a few intermittent green dots were flashing on the edge of the third ring road.

“Because downtown Qingquan is their real core of interests.”

"Mutant slime molds, evolved bodies, ancient battlefields, and equipment left over from the pre-war era... One fragment cannot restore the entire puzzle, but countless fragments stacked together can always restore something useful."

A look of surprise appeared on Luka's face.

"If you put it this way, isn't that wave..."

Chu Guang nodded.

"It might not be a complete disaster for them."

“Our researchers have been studying the evolution of the last wave that spread to the northern suburbs, both from a biological level and from an engineering level. It’s just that we started too late, even though we have excellent researchers , but the progress is still far behind them."

Looking at Luka with a look of surprise on his face, Chu Guang said slowly.

"Like you said, they don't care about our planes at all, because they're not even a problem."

"Their real purpose is probably to restrict our access to their treasures."

……

On the other side, Boulder City Hall.

Du Long let out a sigh of relief after hanging up the phone.

While feeling relieved, the corner of his mouth couldn't help but curl up into a proud smile.

The aircraft of the new alliance will no longer enter their core area of ​​interest. The respected city lord will definitely be satisfied with this result.

The LD series weapons are still on the list of restricted imports. The trade between the two parties will not be affected, and the military-industrial complex will not make irresponsible remarks.

As for other fields besides military industry?

What does it have to do with him?

What's more, trade itself is beneficial to both parties. Boulder City can buy cheaper consumer goods and industrial raw materials, which is not a bad thing.

In Dulong's view, he just took out a little bit of honey, and got results that made everyone happy.

Thinking of this, he couldn't help but praise himself in his heart.

I am really a genius!

In the past, looking around from Boulder City, there was no decent opponent in the entire southern part of the River Valley Province. The Great Rift Valley in the north was too far away, and everyone looked down upon each other.

He sits in the office of the city hall every day, either stamping or dozing off, and few people take him seriously at all.

Now he finally has someone who can complement his intelligence!

At this time, a voice from the side interrupted his thoughts.

"Mr. Director."

"What's wrong?" Dulong, who was in a good mood, said pleasantly as he looked at his deputy Jaeger.

"I don't understand, why do we have to talk so much nonsense with a group of scavengers?" Jaeger had a hint of displeasure on his face, "Their population is not even as large as our slums."

The outside of the city was crowded with people who wanted to enter the city.

Even the dirt flowing out of the city is enough to feed tens of thousands of people.

Negotiating this matter with them made him feel unhappy.

Dulong guessed what he was thinking and thought about how to answer this question.

"They are not as strong as us, but they are far less weak than we thought. Do you remember the look in that person's eyes just now?"

Yager chuckled.

"Can looks kill?"

Dulong said in a gentle tone.

"No, but it is not easy to make them surrender. Isn't it good to negotiate to solve the problem? If there is a fight, we will be the cannon fodder again."

"Besides, the Lord of the City requested that their planes be kept away from the Fourth Ring Road in Qingquan City. Not only did we complete the task, we also exceeded our quota."

Patting his deputy on the shoulder, he continued talking happily.

"Be happy and don't be so embarrassed."

……

Qingquan City, on the edge of the North Third Ring Road.

The slanting sunset lengthens the shadow of the viaduct piers.

Night is about to fall, and the gnawers wandering around this area are gradually becoming more manic and aggressive.

Shops along the street not far from the viaduct.

Squatting on the edge behind the window, paddling, holding an assault rifle in his hand, he carefully monitored the streets outside the bunker.

In addition to him, there are nine teammates hiding nearby.

The alien corpses lying strewn on the street and the dense bullet holes on the walls tell the story of the intensity of the previous battle.

Four hours ago, he and his team members received the mission and walked to the edge of the North Third Ring Road in Qingquan City to pick up the cattle and horse team who had withdrawn from the "new map".

After a fierce exchange of fire, they successfully eliminated the alien species on the street.

However, as dusk is approaching, more and more alien species begin to spread from nearby buildings to the streets. It is difficult to say how long the tranquility at this moment can be maintained.

The construction site boy and Brick, who were holding the machine guns, suddenly muttered something.

"I won't give it away for free again."

Kakarot happened to hear this and glared at him.

"Stop the crow's mouth!"

The big-eyed debtor glanced at Brother Bian next to him.

"How long will it take?"

Edge Paddling was about to answer when there was sudden movement at the intersection.

Everyone's nerves were tense instantly, and the weapons in their hands were pointed at the past.

At this moment, a familiar voice suddenly came

"It's me, don't get mad."

Looking at the man who appeared at the intersection, he was slightly stunned, and a surprised expression suddenly appeared on his face.

"What the hell!? Old Bai?"

"Why are you like this?"

At this moment, Lao Bai's situation can only be described as embarrassing.

His left hand was holding a package wrapped in a parachute, and his right hand was carrying a rifle covered in blood. Not only was the chemical protective suit missing, but his body was covered in mud, and there was a piece of almost bulletproof vest hanging on his chest. Burnt holes.

The whole person felt like he had rolled out of hell.

Facing everyone's surprised gazes, Lao Bai smiled bitterly.

"...something happened."

What the **** is this? !

Everyone looked at each other.

Never mind quitting smoking, Lao Bai Fangchang and the others are already considered to be the ceiling of combat power in the entire server.

What the **** is going on, even these guys are so troublesome!

The debtor swallowed hard.

"...Where are the others?"

Lao Bai said nothing.

At this time, Fang Chang's voice came from behind him.

"Dead."

With a heavy expression on his face, Fang Chang was in similar condition to Lao Bai, with the same gray-faced appearance.

He probably lost his rifle. He was holding a mechanical arm with a VM tied to it in his right hand, and half of his shoulder was hanging from the **** interface. It was shocking to see.

Edge Paddling recognizes this guy.

It seems to be the arm of the strong wind...

"No matter what, the task is completed."

After throwing the **** package on the ground, Lao Bai raised his arm and wiped the mud and sweat from his forehead, "This thing... please help me carry it, I really don't have the energy."

"What the **** is this?"

The construction site boy and Bian walked forward, curiously opened the package and took a look, and found a bunch of strange parts and dark red fungi lying inside.

Many of the bacteria with exposed tentacles are still slowly squirming, like freshly cut beef.

"The remains of the evolved body, who knows what it is."

Sitting on the hood of the old car, Fang Chang looked at the fungi playing with the construction site man and gave him a kind reminder.

"You'd better not turn around with your hands... This is how our brother who quit smoking died."
