Night.

Players went offline one after another.

In Shelter.

Lucius, who was sitting in front of the computer, logged into the official website proficiently. As always, he peeked at the screen to see the situation before doing the planning work.

Not surprisingly, the players on the forum today are all discussing what happened during the day.

Keeping People Under The Knife: "F*ck, am I the only one who noticed? There are a lot of wild NPCs appearing today! I usually can't meet them all day long!"

The Boy On The Construction Site: "Yes, yes, two came at noon, and three came in the afternoon. I just want to ask, is the public beta coming soon? (⁠⁠▽⁠⁠)"

That Touch Of Missing: "I'm afraid the public beta is still early, let's do the internal beta first, but the announcement hasn't started yet, I'm afraid there will be some waiting. (eat melon)"

Picking Up Trash Level 99: "Damn it? What did I miss? I'll be back in the evening!"

Irena: "It's okay, I also completely missed the daytime plot, but I believe the old buddies in the forum will definitely add the plot. (⁠ ⁠ꈍ⁠ᴗ⁠ꈍ⁠)"

Bear Hugger: "."

Ten Night: "(⁠≧⁠▽⁠≦⁠)"

The first posts that come out are always not nutritious, and the bosses are silently holding back their big moves.

Sitting in front of the computer, Lucius browsed the forum for about half an hour. After waiting for a while, he saw a lot of high-quality content being posted one after another.

For example, Brother Tomorrow's post.

Perhaps it was because he was worried about a certain fugitive mouse, which had shaken his tall image of 'The number one player in the wasteland' in the minds of players. After many days of silence, Tomorrow Seeker finally updated a 'Super hard core technology flow' strategy post on the forum!

The post not only listed in detail the perception and experience of each gene sequence, but also shared the ancestral quadrilateral tactics of the cattle and horse squad.

Lucius opened it and took a look, adding essence without saying a word.

Good guy!

This is posting all of his own unique work at the bottom of the press box. If he doesn't add more details, he himself feels sorry for these hardworking little bees!

"... After playing for so long, let's sum up some strategies. The old rules, let's talk about the conclusion first, the perception system is worthy of being the son of the version! Whether it is hunting or scavenging, it is best to bring one in the team."

"A high-sensitivity character can not only see the danger in advance, but also track down the enemy. The death penalty in this game is not generally high, and you have to do it when it's time to do it. After all, no one wants to OB on the official website for three days, right?"

"If the perception system is the son of the version, then the strength system is the second son. When the physical attributes and agility attributes in the early stage cannot give full play to their obvious advantages, the strength system can bring players the most intuitive melee advantage and give teammates full support. sense of security!"

"By the way, don't trust those bewildered people who are bewildered by chopping down trees. They have to play with the ax game. Axes are used to chop down trees. Hunting is really not easy! If you are a strength type, then the javelin will always be your god!"

"Under the spear, all beings are equal! If you really can't use a bow, think about it. You don't need too much aim within five meters. If you really can't hit it, you can charge up with both hands and spear!"

"You mean a rifle? What's that thing? It's more expensive than my life! Why don't you grab it? Again, in the early stage, unless there are professional players who are willing to support you with the money that can buy a house, then I didn't say! For example, you are on the side of the rich woman Shuri.≧◠‿◠≦"

"There is nothing to say about the agility department. I am an agility department myself, and my dodge is really high. Sometimes I can dodge the oncoming attack just by instinct, but that's all."

"This attribute does not actually have a great bonus to archery and throwing. Although the dynamic vision has a little auxiliary effect on shooting, the hit is still mainly affected by proficiency and experience. Perhaps, the gameplay of the agility system is actually close combat? For example, sneak stabbing, or One-handed sword and shield?"

"Using high dodge to replace the melee suppressing effect of the strength system, and serving as the front row of the team, may also be a feasible idea. But here is just an introduction. To be honest, I haven't tried it. Maybe you can give it a try!"

"As for the physique system, this sequence is actually very confusing. The recovery speed bonus and injury resilience do exist, but they are not outstanding. As a result, it is difficult for players of this sequence to gain a direct advantage in intense battles, and the recovery advantage It often comes after the battle is over."

"In addition, the wounds of players with high physical fitness seem to be less likely to be infected, and have higher resistance to toxins and even radiation. From this point of view, the physical system may be more suitable for scavenging rather than hunting. The best partner is still recommended to be the perception system. "

"Finally, the name of the intelligence department must be corrected here! The gene sequence of the intelligence department is exactly the younger brother, but under the current version, this profession is indeed not suitable for rushing to the front line, on the contrary, it is more suitable for a life profession."

"The advantage of high intelligence is mainly reflected in the ability to master skill proficiency faster. However, in this game, proficiency is actually a very abstract concept. It includes many elements such as muscle memory and skill experience, resulting in this attribute. The other four attributes bring more intuitive enhancements to the character."

"So when filling out the 'Volunteer', you must think clearly whether your gameplay is really suitable for this attribute. If you have decided before entering the game to become a professional player with a leisurely life, then the intelligence department is the best for your choice."

"In addition, in the absence of guns, the best configuration of the hunting team is a quadrilateral style of play, with perception as scouting, strength as the front row, and agility as the shooter. The remaining one depends on your needs, add agility to support, or add a strength Group fights in the front row are fine!"

At the end of the post, Tomorrow also used the electronic map in the official website database to make a simple strategy map, marking the relatively safe 'Monster spawning points' around the shelter. The whole post can be said to be full of dry goods, it can be used as a novice strategy!

Lucius watched and nodded frequently, and the corner of his mouth could not help but smile.

It is really worthwhile to cultivate him! Compared with players who do things, he likes players who have a deep understanding of the game and version.

It is best to know more about their plan than his own.

"Speaking of which, the total deposit of The Cowboy Team seems to have officially exceeded 200 silver."

These four old players are indeed fierce enough. At first, they bought some knives and axes, but later they didn't even bother to equip knives, and directly used the steel pipes, steel bars, and reinforced concrete that they picked up.

Obviously, they have grasped the essence of this 'Game'.

The really 'Easy-to-use' weapons are often picked up by chance, then modified by themselves with the picked up materials, and finally those things that are put on the store shelves for them to see.

In addition to Tomorrow Seeker's strategy post, 'The Mole In The Hole' also updated a strategy. But it's not about professional gameplay, it's about the content of the game itself.

"Hi everyone, I'm your big-nosed mole. Today's wasteland is as quiet as ever! But my nose already smells gunpowder!"

"Don't ask why, it's a good idea! Before the manager encountered a raider team near the northern townhouse, Mr. Garbage found a raider camp in the northern tire factory, and there are rumors of a tribe of mutants entrenched in the depths of 76th Street. Obviously the production team is paving the way with these settings and implying us that our home is not safe! It can even be said that the situation is quite serious!"

"In the past, our scope of activities was only in Wetland Park, but now our footprints have obviously stepped out of the novice area, spreading to an urban area one kilometer near Wetland Park—or even two kilometers! Even if there are ruins and jungles Waiting for the cover of the terrain, it will be discovered by other nearby NPC forces sooner or later!"

"In addition, the merchants who came earlier today, and the natives who came in the afternoon, all proved my conjecture - the frequency of communication between player forces and neutral forces is determined by the players' activity in the game!"

"To be honest, the details of this game exceeded my expectations. If my deduction is correct, it should trigger a conflict with predators or mutants soon!"

"It is suggested that the planners can try to organize a wave of raiders to siege the city. By the way, we can also test the quality of our project to see if it is as reliable as it looks! Otherwise, it would be a pity if the wall is repaired and there is no chance to use it, isn't it??”

Lucius's eyelids twitched when he read this post.

This guy's mouth is quite weird, here he is trying to steal as much time as possible so he can develop peacefully and that guy wants to start a war to see the quality of wall?

Keeping People Under The Knife: "F*ck, are you a devil?!"

Tomorrow Seeker: "Come on bro, we just saved enough money to buy a house here, and we didn't even have a gun to buy a shitty siege. Rush in the woods? Isn't that looking for death!"

Picking Up Trash Level 99: "Hurry up! Let me fight mutants before it snows! (`▭´)ノ︵ ┻━┻"

Irena: "In such a hurry to add a meal to the mutants? ٩(˘◡˘)۶"

Richest Elf King: "Hahaha."

Bear Hugger: "Go those mutants definitely like your tail in their food menu, ."

"..."

Lucius also wanted to be as free and easy as this guy, but he really couldn't laugh. After all, it was a game for them, not for him.

As this big-nosed mole says, as the outpost grows in size and players explore further into the ruins, sooner or later they'll run into their neighbors. Even if you don't meet, there is no guarantee that the other party will not follow the traces to find you.

Fortunately, during the day, the players are all online, and the weapon shop has guns and bullets, as well as gunpowder made by Brother Mosquito.

But at night it's troublesome.

The empty city strategy is not easy to use at all times. You may not dare to approach it once or twice. After a long time, you will find that this outpost is almost undefended at night...

Thinking of this, Lucius immediately turned on the system and confirmed the number of reservations through the player list.

【 Current reservation number: 612 】

"Popo."

"Yes, master."

Popo, who was squatting in the corner to charge, turned on the light, and the sudden sound startled the proprietress of the weapon shop who was sitting beside her reciting her lines.

"Open 50 more cans for me."

"Master, you only have 49 cans to open."

Lucius was stunned for a moment, and then he remembered that in order to revive Yaya, he had embezzled a can of active substances from one of the inactive cultivation cabins.

F*ck! This loser's stuff.

"Then open 40 first."

Keep nine as spare, just in case.

The generator has to wait for two days to be delivered. In case of an extreme situation of being 'Blocked', at least I can make a comeback with the remaining 9 units of active material.

No matter what the situation is, Lucius will prepare a plan B, which is almost a habit he developed before time travel.

"What are you guys saying?"

There are only three mouths in the room, one of which is AI.

This person, an AI, suddenly speaks in a language she doesn't understand, anyone who heard it will panic.

Sumeria was no exception, looking nervously at Lucius who was sitting in front of the computer.

"Nothing to do with you."

Lucius replied casually, then stared at the computer screen intently, typing on the keyboard.

【 Alpha0.4 Version Update Announcement 】

A faint smile curled up at the corner of his mouth, and his tight brow relaxed a little. Regarding the content of this update, Lucius has already prepared a draft. After all, there are so many young geniuses to help him make suggestions.

Looking at the flickering side face illuminated by the light from the screen, Sumeria swallowed, her tensed nerves getting even more tense.

I always feel that this guy is planning something evil again...
