Chapter 178 Your idea is good. I will consider it in the next update.

[Alpha0.81 version update: Added "Scientific Expedition Team Mission"]

[Scientific Expedition Team Mission: The 404 Shelter Scientific Expedition Team has been established, and the target is the remains of pre-war civilization! As the head of the scientific expedition team, Yin Fang will issue "Scientific Expedition" missions from time to time, place exploration beacons on the map, and give rewards or hidden missions based on the scientific research type ruins clues provided by players. ]

[Yin Fang: It's not that I betrayed the academy, but that the academy betrayed me. The error will be corrected, I will find out what happened two hundred years ago, and find the last hope of human civilization, Shelter 0! ]

[Tips from A Guang: When the NPC is in need, a yellow question mark will appear on his icon on the map. Repeated attempts at meaningless dialogue will not trigger hidden tasks, but will only reduce the NPC's favorability. In addition, it is not necessary to trigger tasks through dialogue, and it is also possible to accept tasks through VM. ]

Tail: "Throne! (｀)Ψ"

Quit Smoking: "Shock! Alpha 0.81 is out! The planner is awesome!"

Ye Shi: "Quit Smoking, stop it. A Guang only has Fang Chang as his licker. I feel bad for you. (Funny)"

Fang Chang: "Get lost. When did I ever lick him? (Angry)"

Teng Teng: "()"

Fang Chang: "?"

Chu Guang, who started to peek at the screen after posting the announcement, finally couldn't help laughing out loud when he saw this.

He can testify that Brother Fang Chang definitely didn't lick him. At most, he just knows himself better. There are a lot of bad ideas in his new folder, but they are all borrowed from him.

After peeking at the screen for a while, Chu Guang felt his eyelids fighting. He glanced at the time and saw that it was getting late. He yawned and got up to sleep.

That night.

He had a very long dream. He dreamed that he was walking by the lake, and the guy named Dr. Principle was following him, and there was a little brother behind him.

Although he didn't see the face clearly, Chu Guang felt that it should be Yin Fang.

After realizing this, Chu Guang was very speechless. Why didn't anyone with big breasts appear in his dream today?

This dream was very unreasonable.

The lake was filled with fog, the road was very long, and the lake was as wide as the sea, with sparkling water that could not be seen at the end.

The moonlight was bright, and the air was quiet and peaceful.

After walking for a long time, a voice suddenly came from the side.

"What year is it now?"

Chu Guang was about to answer, but Dr. Principle's number one licker Yin Fang spoke first.

"It's 2340 now!"

Dr. Principle beside him nodded, and suddenly spoke with emotion.

"2340..."

"It's too long."

The dream was over.

After waking up, Chu Guang calmly lay on his back and blinked at the ceiling.

His back was covered in sweat, as if he had just been fished out of the water. Chu Guang even suspected that someone had thrown him into the lake to take a bath while he was asleep.

The sheets and clothes were all soaked.

No doubt, every time this happened, it must be another upgrade.

"Damn... I'll just sleep in the incubator next time."

Chu Guang seriously suspected that the players also sweated when they upgraded, but they just lay in the incubator and all the metabolites were discharged.

It seems that the recent exercise has paid off.

Chu Guang turned over and got up, his bones crackled, and his eyes were clearer than ever, as if he had drunk a box of taurine drinks.

After moving his limbs, Chu Guang simply adapted to this new body, then went to the resident hall and checked himself with the physical examination equipment there.

[

ID: Chu Guang

Gene sequence: Manager (second stage)

Level: LV.11→LV.12

Basic attributes

Strength: 16→17

Agility: 11

Constitution: 14

Perception: 12

Intelligence: 12→13

]

"Two attribute points were added this time?"

Chu Guang confirmed again that he only upgraded to the next level, but his strength and intelligence grew by 1 attribute point at the same time.

"It seems that the growth of 'physical function' with 'gene sequence development progress' is not completely linear."

"Unfortunately, the law is still a mystery."

Just as Chu Guang was staring at the physical examination report in thought, light footsteps came from the side. Boss Xia, who had just got up, yawned and walked in from the corridor next door.

Noticing the sheets on Chu Guang's shoulders, she was slightly stunned and looked strange.

"Why do you change the sheets every day?"

Chu Guang replied casually.

"Not every day."

Xia Yan's eyes unconsciously moved down, just in time to see the sweaty clothes and swollen muscles. To be honest, this is not a rare thing, but it happened to match that lethal face.

"You... find something to wear."

His face suddenly turned red, and Boss Xia turned his head and walked away.

Chu Guang ignored her. Before the peak of players going online, he hummed a little tune and went to the B2 floor to take a shower. After changing into clean clothes, he threw the sheets into the washing machine.

There is a public washing machine in the shower area. It is scientifically disinfected and automatically dried. It is very convenient. It only costs 1 silver coin to use it once. Or you can go to the lakeside. It's free there, but there is a risk of helping the fishermen to make nests, but it's not a big problem.

After washing, Chu Guang returned to the manager's office and sat down, ready to rest for a while before going up. However, before the chair was warm, he saw Yin Fang push the door and walk in.

"Have your residents gone crazy? They have been waiting at my door since early morning! Wherever I go, they follow me. It's even more exaggerated than yesterday!"

As he spoke, Yin Fang nervously glanced behind him and found that the residents of the shelter did not follow him.

Seeing his ignorant look, Chu Guang smiled and poured him a cup of hot water.

"Relax, they are so excited when they heard that you are going to set up a scientific expedition team. Isn't this a good thing? Believe me, as long as you find something for them to do, they will naturally disperse... Come, drink some hot water."

Yin Fang shook his head after taking the cup.

"But I don't need so many people! Four, eight at most!"

The clues now are very limited. Maybe more people will be needed in the future, but at least not in the early stage.

"I know you don't have to hire all of them, but at least you have to pick a few who look reliable. There is a level number on the player list I gave you. Basically, the higher the level, the more reliable the player." Chu Guang shared some life experience with him.

This is what he concluded through constant attempts.

Yin Fang sighed and said, "I don't know how you formulated this hierarchy, and I don't know how reliable it is. Excuse me, you should have a professional assessment system, otherwise how can I know whether they are better at cutting trees or picking up garbage."

Chu Guang's eyes lit up.

"Good idea, this can be integrated into the next update."

"...?"

Update?

Yin Fang was confused, but he didn't take it too seriously.

After all, this was not the first time he didn't understand the self-made phrases that occasionally popped out of the manager's mouth.

"In any case, take good care of your residents. I'm really worried that their brains are broken. In addition, in order to start the work as soon as possible, I need some information."

Chu Guang looked at him and said, "No problem, what information do you need and where is it? We can help you get it."

Yin Fang: "Dr. Principle's image is related to three locations, the Great Rift Valley, Shelter No. 117, and Xinwu Community College."

Chu Guang: "We are cleaning the entrance to Shelter No. 117. Where is Xinwu Community College?"

Yin Fang: "It's where we found the videotape, and it's also where Dr. Principle woke up!"

"Is there anything worth investigating there?"

In Chu Guang's impression, the place seemed to be quite clean.

After all, according to the oral account in the video, there were more than a thousand survivors living in that community college.

Things like tables, chairs, wooden benches, and even the books in the library were burned as fuel two hundred years ago, just like a locust plague.

Yin Fang shook his head and said, "It's a pity that the damage there is too high, and it's hard to find any valuable clues. But even so, the location itself is a very important clue."

Chu Guang: "What do you mean?"

"This is about the work process of our explorers!"

Yin Fang showed a confident smile on his face and continued.

"It is common sense in the pre-war era that no scientific research institution can exist independently without the support of society. A research institute may manage hundreds of projects, and these projects may be supported by thousands of funding sources and participated by thousands of researchers. The results born from this will not be stored in only one place. As long as we find one of the clues, we may be able to find all we want."

"Some electronic files may be damaged by EMP or neglect of maintenance, but many important records will be kept in paper archives. The paper and anti-oxidation ink made of polymer materials will not be a problem even for two thousand years, let alone two hundred years!"

Is this an expert?

After listening to Yin Fang's statement, Chu Guang nodded approvingly.

Sure enough, the people in the academy are still professional in archaeology. Others just pick up garbage and pretend to flip through documents that they can't understand, but they are the ones who really know how to use those documents.

Many people think that scientific research is too simple, thinking that it is just like copying homework, and they can make an identical one by copying the drawings. In fact, the so-called drawings are not just a piece of paper, but may be many pieces, and many things that are exactly the same in the macroscopic view are also very different in the microscopic view.

Unless you have a systematic understanding of these jobs, archaeology is not something you can take casually.

It would be great if we could find a way to get more people from the academy to work here.

Wouldn't the scientific research points rise rapidly?

Chu Guang felt that his requirements were not high, and it would be great if he could come up with a series of related technologies from industrial preparation of metallic hydrogen to room temperature storage.

This thing can be used as a bomb or a battery, it is very useful.

According to Yin Fang, he plans to start the investigation from four aspects: the scientific research personnel files of Xinwu Community University, related research projects, cooperative institutions and funding sources.

This may take a little time.

But it should be fruitful.

After staying in the administrator's office for a while, Yin Fang saw that the players gathered outside had dispersed, so he hurriedly left.

Before Chu Guang went to the surface, he took a look at the allowance page of the administrator system and unexpectedly found that he could draw again.

A total of 111 reward points, a very auspicious number.

Chu Guang thought for a while and clicked on the advanced, intermediate and primary blind boxes.

Maybe because I was unlucky enough before, the prizes this time were unexpectedly good.

The primary blind box opened a bag of salt-baked dried fish, which was a snack I had never seen before. The intermediate blind box opened an adrenaline injection, and it was the kind that was injected painlessly, and one shot directly started the fury.

The advanced blind box was even more amazing, opening an SSR and a "Hummingbird" drone!

Now Chu Guang has two cameras to use!

"Master."

Coming up to Chu Guang's calf, Xiao Qi raised the camera and looked at him eagerly.

Chu Guang originally wanted to say that he would keep this drone for himself, but the voice was too pitiful.

This guy, I don't know where he stole a set of voice packs, it's really good!

"Okay, okay, here you go."

Patting the guy's round metal head, Chu Guang picked it up from the ground and said with a smile.

"Let's go."

"It's almost dawn, let's go for a walk outside."

...

In fact, the sky outside was not almost dawn, but had already been bright for a long time. It's just that Chu Guang had been going out a little late recently, and going out before eight o'clock was considered relatively early for him.

This was not because Chu Guang was not diligent, but mainly because his little players were too diligent. They logged in on time every day, and were even more active than going to work.

Chu Guang hadn't even thought about the name of the heavy industrial base sandwiched between the outpost and Changjiu Farm, but his diligent little players had already taken the abandoned tire factory back from the hands of the aliens.

The corpses of mutant rats and cockroaches piled up into a small mountain, and those newbies wielding cold weapons were already killing like crazy.

The strategy for Shelter No. 117 and the Greenhouse Ruins was also progressing steadily.

Especially for the former, the players even evolved a new set of team rules, which even Chu Guang was shocked by.

Sure enough, third-rate planners are leeks, second-rate planners are leeks, and first-rate planners can not only leeks, but also plant.

As a top planner who is proficient in human nature, he can not only mobilize the leeks of leeks, but also make the leeks move themselves.

"That's great."

Everyone made a lot of money.

A world where no one loses is really great!

Got on the elevator.

As soon as Chu Guang arrived on the surface, the new warehouse manager trained by Old Luca came up to him and said respectfully.

"Sir, Brown Farm has sent an envoy."

Chu Guang remembered that the name of the middle-aged man in front of him was Guoba, who was once a slave of Brown Farm and later entered the dungeon of the Blood Hand Clan. Because this name was too much to pronounce, he changed his name to Guo Niu, which was more in line with the local customs.

As for the other granary manager, his name was Guo Ma.

"The envoy of Brown Farm? What do they want?"

Guo Niu said respectfully.

"The envoy brought 5,000 kilograms of yams and 5,000 kilograms of Chinese cabbage, saying that they were tributes from Mr. Brown to you, and the envoy also said that they really had no more."

Really no more?

Chu Guang was slightly stunned, confused by this sentence, and didn't understand what it meant for a while.

He didn't remember asking him for it.

But to be honest, this Mr. Brown, who had never met him, was willing to give. Ten tons of food, he took it as soon as he said, it seems that he is not an ordinary fat man.

Chu Guang couldn't help thinking in his heart.

Maybe he can borrow some more.

"Did the envoy say anything else?"

Guo Niu nodded and continued.

"The messenger also said that he hoped your residents could exercise some restraint... They had heard gunshots and explosions from the direction of the Garden Street subway station for several days in a row, and that place was less than one kilometer away from Brown Farm. His original words were, if this was a joke, it was not funny at all."

Chu Guang's expression was a little subtle when he heard this.

As soon as he heard about the explosion, he immediately guessed that it was probably Mole and Mosquito who made too much noise at the entrance of Shelter No. 117 and scared the people of Brown Farm.

But think about it.

There was a neighbor who was very good at fighting next to him. He had a lot of guns and bullets. In just one month, except for the west side next to the lake, there was nothing to shoot, and he did it in all three directions of east, south and north.

Now this neighbor has brought people to the door of the house, shooting and setting off fireworks every day, obviously celebrating the New Year in advance.

Anyone would be panicked.

But Chu Guang really didn't expect that the farmer was so cowardly that he dragged the food to his door to beg for mercy.

Seeing that the administrator did not speak, Guo Niu asked cautiously.

"Sir, the envoy of Brown Farm is in the reception room. Do you need me to take you to see him?"

Coming back to his senses, Chu Guang looked at Guo Niu.

"No need. Ask him to take a message to the farmer of Brown Farm for me, saying thank you for their generous donation. In addition, our residents did not mean to disturb us. They were just conducting... uh, combat exercises against alien species there."

After a pause, Chu Guang continued.

"The exercise will be over within a week. Tell them not to think too much or worry too much. Shelter No. 404 is the guardian of regional order. We look forward to conducting friendly and equal trade with them."

"In addition, you should treat those envoys to lunch before letting them go back. They generously donated so much food to us, and the proper etiquette should be fulfilled."

Guo Niu nodded respectfully.

"Yes, sir."

...

Reception room.

Liu Jiuyue paced back and forth in the room, looking worried.

Mr. Brown didn't sleep all night last night and was very angry, which made the servants restless.

Early in the morning, his boss Liu Zhengyue called him and asked him to take the packed caravan to Linghu Wetland Park four kilometers away to present the supplies on the car to the lord there.

Liu Jiuyue counted the supplies on the car, which was 20,000 kilograms, which really surprised him.

You know, this early winter has reduced the farm's grain production by a whole season. Not only the serfs' meals were reduced to one meal a day, but even the meals of the servants were reduced again and again, and there was not even a drop of oil in the bowl.

With so many supplies to the neighbors, the master is not worried about having no food in winter.

However, this is not something that a servant like him can worry about.

At this time, the door opened.

Guo Niu, who received him, walked in from outside.

Liu Jiuyue recognized this man and remembered that he used to be a serf who cut wheat on the farm, but now he could only pretend not to know him, put on a smile on his face, and greeted him.

"Sir, have you seen the administrator?"

Guo Niu did not give him any preferential treatment because of his "fellow villager" status. He said in a businesslike manner.

"The master has understood your demands and thanked Mr. Brown for his generous donation. The exercise at the Garden Street subway station will be over within a week. He said that this is not aimed at you, so you don't have to worry too much. In addition, in order to avoid accidental injuries, he hopes that your people will try not to get close during the exercise. This is for your own good."

Liu Jiuyue looked confused.

"Exercise?"

"Yes, the master said that this is an alien combat exercise." Guo Niu did not know how to explain this word, so he could only repeat the original words of the administrator.

Liu Jiuyue nodded blankly.

It seems that these people mean that the gunfire at the Garden Street subway station will continue for a week?

But what happened there is not aimed at them, so they don't have to worry.

In any case, he had received a reply, and the mission was completed, so he could go back and report. He only hoped that this reply would satisfy Mr. Brown, after all, that man's temper was too terrible.

"Thank you for hearing our request, I will convey it to Mr. Brown." Liu Jiuyue said respectfully.

Guo Niu nodded and watched him continue.

"In addition, the manager told me that if you are not in a hurry to leave, let me treat you to lunch before you set off, and the road conditions at noon will be safer."

Liu Jiuyue did not refuse.

On the one hand, as the person in charge of receiving him said, the road conditions at noon will be safer than in the morning. On the other hand, being able to get a meal before leaving is better than going on an empty stomach.

Before leaving, he didn't eat anything, and stuffed a piece of green wheat cake in his pocket, which was cold and hard, like a stone. The pot of boiling water hanging on his waist had also been cold for a long time, and it was fortunate that it didn't freeze.

"Thank you!"

Looking at the timid man in front of him, Guo Niu suddenly felt a little sorry for him.

When they were in the farm before, the serfs envied the servants who could serve the farmer's family the most, because only those servants could be considered human beings, while they, the serfs, could only be considered animals.

Even the laundry women and the shoemakers who polished the farmer's shoes were much more noble than them. Not only could they live in a house made of wood or bricks, but they could also eat two hot meals. If they made mistakes occasionally, they would be punished, and they would not be dragged out and dealt with just because they were old or disabled.

But now, he felt that this man who was once high and mighty in front of him was like a pitiful worm at this moment.

Perhaps in this world, only the administrator can liberate them.

"You're welcome."

Guo Niu paused and repeated the words of the administrator.

"The administrator said that this is the proper etiquette."
