Xigou and his five companions were not in a hurry to upgrade. They walked to the new Zhao family team and observed.
"Tsk~ The NPCs in this game are really good. Look at their movements... They are so lifelike, much better than that stupid AI lord who is always in a daze."
"Hey, hey, hey! Look at that male NPC, he's still making some small moves! He was just rubbed by a leaf and tickled Kun Kun. This detail... is comparable to Red Cousin 2!"
"Don't be so mean! Before this game, I had no problem with you using Red Cousin 2 as your upper limit, but once this game came out... Red Cousin 2 is not even worthy of being named! I can only say... Chinese games have been declining for so many years, except for Duoyu Company which has made some good games in recent years... other companies are just thinking about making money, but I never expected that they would overtake others in virtual reality games, and "End of the World OL" turned out!"
"Being able to play this kind of game in my lifetime, I can only say... I have no regrets about coming to China!"
"Damn! Stop being so sentimental. Look at the NPCs. Some of them are pointing at us. They look like they admire us."
The people in Zhao Village were indeed also watching these five players.
Especially the hunters among them, who had seen how powerful these five players were in the wild.
The old hunter whispered to his youngest son, "Niuniu, don't be fooled by the friendly appearance of these people. It's because we have joined their base that they are so friendly to us. Outside, they slaughtered the predators without blinking an eye!"
Niu Niu touched his little head and said, "Then their eyes won't work?"
Old hunter: "..."
The five players watched as these people carried various equipment and set up camp halfway up the mountain.
Suddenly, the little dog's eyes lit up!
"Horse! Look! Horse! No... look at the bird! Also wrong... grass! Look at that bird-horse!"
Everyone looked in the direction where Xigou's finger was pointing.
A white four-legged creature stood in the center of the migration team, carrying a large pile of heavy supplies on its back, including pots, pans, and other utensils.
They did it all in one go and moved directly.
The reason why the thin dog couldn’t understand what these “horses” were called was because they had a bird’s head!
And a beak!
Lin Tang sucked his teeth and said, "Isn't this a pure stitched monster? Sewing a horse and a bird together makes a new creature, right? The Sentinels have finally figured out how to stitch..."
But the fox demon was indeed full of joy: "Although it has no wings, but... it is a horse after all! A mount! You know? A mount in the game! It is stronger than mutant creatures like Chicken Titanium Magnesium that produce materials! If we have a mount, the time to run around will be greatly shortened!"
Now, the problem that bothers them is that the map running time is too slow, and it often takes dozens of minutes. If they go to Yanjing Town, it will take more than two hours.
It takes 3 hours to get out of the four mountains.
The dog licked his lips and said, "Just now... the lord said that we can trade with these NPCs, or hire them to do work, so... can we buy this horse? We can get a mount for our team. And you see this mutant... It's much stronger than an ordinary horse. It can carry so much supplies and walk without deforming. It would be good for it to help us transport the bodies of the looters or the prey."
Although the bird horse looks a bit strange, it is very functional.
The five players showed greedy eyes and started thinking about how to get it.
At this moment, Lin Tang suddenly changed the subject.
"Look... there's a female NPC."
Xigou: "What's wrong with female NPCs? If all NPCs in games were male, wouldn't the game companies be crushed by female fighters?"
Yaohu: "In today's society... people are still very afraid of being beaten. If game companies are looking at the world market, I suggest that they must respect the habits of all ethnic groups, resist skin color discrimination, and bring in some niggers..."
Polar Bear: "... ... What a fellow, you're just a democratic freak the moment you open your mouth!"
Lao Bai: "So... what happened to the female NPC? Isn't this normal?"
Lin Tang shook his head: "I'm thinking about a question... Is this game realistic?"
Everyone: (°ー°〃)
Zhao Yan is the eldest of the Zhao family. After seeing that his entire family had settled down, he walked over to chat with the five powerful warriors.
"Hello, hello. I am the leader of Zhaojia Village. I would like to thank you powerful warriors..."
At this point, he saw the two skeletons following the five people and swallowed.
"... and the wizards have admired us for a long time. Please be sure to have lunch here at noon today. There are excellent prey waiting for your visit."
Thin Dog: "This person... is talking to us, what should we do?"
Fox Demon: "No other way, let's use sign language. I'll take as much as I can understand."
Although we don't speak the same language, we are all human beings and can understand some simple things by using gestures.
For example, Lin Tang just whistled at a female NPC and was scolded.
After a few gestures, all the polite words disappeared, leaving only the most primitive human expressions.
The thin dog pointed at the horse and then at his own crotch, making the same motion as if he was riding a horse.
Zhao Yan understood immediately and waved his hand:
"It's just a stallion, it won't work..."
Xigou continued to point at the horse, then took out his watch and showed him the balance of iron coins on it.
Zhao Yan immediately understood and continued to wave his hands:
"Even if you give me a watch, I won't let you use it. This is the most valuable asset of our Zhao family, and... this is really a stallion."
Seeing that Zhao Yan refused to give in, Xigou reached into his pocket... and took out Loneliness.
"How embarrassing. It seems we don't really have any assets."
Even if you want someone else's horse, you can't offer anything of equal value.
Among the entire team, perhaps only the double-barreled shotgun in Lin Tang's hand is worth some money, but it is still not as valuable as this bird horse.
Several people had to give up.
Lin Tang suddenly said, "We can't get a horse for now, so why don't we hire someone to clean the battlefield and push the cart? It will save a lot of time."
"This is OK... At least we have beans here, we can buy them from the store."
The fox demon took out a bag of raw beans from his backpack, about 2 kilograms.
Then he raised it and shouted, "Abba!"
He attracted the attention of everyone in Zhaojia Village, then he pointed at the cart and then at the beans.
The meaning of this action is very obvious.
Hiring!
Zhao Yan immediately called over a strong man with a shotgun.
"Gangzi, go out with them and see if you can help. There's no need to save bullets. Come back to me when you run out of them."
"good."
The sturdy man walked behind the few people and pushed the car.
The fox demon handed the beans to him. Gangzi shook his head and pointed at Zhao Yan.
The fox demon gave the beans to Zhao Yan again. Zhao Yan waved his hands and said, "We are under the protection of the natural disaster base. We should contribute a little. This is what we should do. I hope you can protect Gangzi... He is the strongest hunter in our Zhaojia Village."
The Peak Team took Gangzi away.
After going out...
The five people were overjoyed!
Xigou: "Fuck! What a great deal! I got a mercenary for free... The firepower has doubled! The lord is awesome. Although he is always in a daze, he still does something useful occasionally."
Demon Fox: "The Lord is really something. He has brought us so much support. That's awesome!"
Lin Tang: "It seems... this game is going to move from the novice guidance period to the real world plot. From today on, our base will no longer be isolated from the world. It will be linked with the world's plot, and various events will occur. If I'm not mistaken... there will be more and more missions, and the content will become richer and richer."
"Queshi... The game world is unfolding. After laying the groundwork for the worldview for so long... I guess the real main storyline is about to come out!"
“I’m really looking forward to it!”
At present, the task of all players is to survive and then find energy, biological materials, and electronic components for the base, but as the number of players grows and increases, these guiding tasks will soon evolve into the real main storyline.
The predator boss is to the west of the base. The Peak Team heads towards the east of the base. They have rarely explored this area before, so perhaps they can find a new predator camp.
Xigou observed the new mercenary Gangzi. He was 1.8 meters tall, wearing animal skin clothes, and looked very strong. He was thinner than the five of them. After all, the clones produced by the base were all standard muscular men with well-proportioned bodies. The food eaten by people in the wasteland had a single nutritional value, and they were often hungry, so it was difficult for them to gain muscle. It was already good enough for them to be strong.
Suddenly, Gangzi hushed.
Several people stopped and Gangzi secretly walked a few steps up the mountain, where he saw a colorful big cat.
This kind of mutant creature was encountered by the few people at the beginning. It looked like a leopard or a tiger, and was very large in size. It was obvious at first glance that it was a mutant creature with incredible destructive power.
Besides... the stains on my body look like fungi, maybe even poisonous.
Gangzi looked at the few people, pointed upwards, and waved his hand to show that they were not to be trifled with.
He pointed ahead, indicating that everyone could leave secretly.
The dog came closer, checked his health on his smartwatch, and chuckled, "Strong? Haha~ It doesn't matter, I'll do it."
"Let's go and swipe the big cat!"
Five people took action, and the two skeletons surrounded them from the left and right.
Lin Tang took out his hunting rifle and aimed at the big cat. When Gangzi saw that he was going to shoot, he didn't say anything and just took out his gun and aimed.
The big cat sensed some movement around it, stood up suddenly, and roared in the direction the people were heading!
roar!
This roar revealed dozens of snakes growing out of its mouth, spitting out their tongues at them, with sour water dripping from the corners of its mouth.
Ferocious and bloody.
If you have trypophobia, you will faint on the spot.
However, it is clear that none of these players are weak.
Bang!
Bang!
Gangzi and Lintang's gunshots rang out at the same time.
Gangzi hit the big cat's mouth accurately, while Lintang hit it on the neck.
The assistant caused critical piercing damage to the tiger, hp-177!
Lin Tang caused piercing damage to the spotted tiger, hp-83!
“Ouch!”
A large amount of blood splattered out of the big cat's mouth. The shotgun's shotgun bullets turned the snake in its mouth into a pulp.
"Take my bone spear!"
The polar bear changed into the bone spur that Lin Tang had used before, used his skill to create a spear tip from the tip of the bone spur, and threw it out.
“Bang!”
Hit the tiger's head.
Blizzard Polar Bear uses 'Bone Spear' to deal critical damage to the spotted tiger! HP-51!
