This Game Is Too Realistic

  Chapter 61 The Nemesis of Mutant Leeches

The transaction is over.

After leaving the wetland park.

Sun Shiqi, with an angry look, finally couldn't help but began to complain loudly.

"It's unbelievable!"

"I have never seen such a stingy blue coat. How about the reservedness of a civilized person? What about the good manners? These greedy gophers? !"

"I shouldn’t have fantasies about them!"

In the tavern in the trading center of Red River Town, ten of the most talked about stories have four and a blue jacket related.

Someone once received good things in large and small bags from those blue jackets because of a few words of flattery, and some people took a pile of multi-colored papers to cheat and cheat, and were bombed out. At that time, he was carrying a large package of "survival supplies" prepared for him.

These blue coats have almost become synonymous with people who are stupid and rich, and stories about them are often inseparable from the word "get rich overnight."

Sun Shiqi never thought that he could pry open the treasure of the refuge with one mouth, like the rumor in the market. Normal business seems to be a good choice.

However...

The reaction of these people was beyond his expectation.

So that he couldn't help but wonder if these guys were pretending to be a group of refugees.

Will there really be blue jackets to build houses on the ground?    Furthermore, he didn't see where the refuge was in the end...

The gunman who was walking in the front glanced back at him, then glanced at the bulging package on the back of the two-headed cow, wondering. .

"So this deal has lost money?"

He has been a bodyguard for many years and has dealt with many business people, and he has rarely seen them lose money.

"It's not a loss," Sun Shiqi said angrily, "but I could have made more!"

"..."

The gunman was speechless. , Took his attention away from him, and continued to look around for alert.

Sun Shiqi pulled out the ledger from his pocket, with a painful expression on his face.

The 10kg salt was only replaced by 30kg bacon.

If it hadn’t been for this trip to go to Boulder City, even if someone pointed a gun at his head, he would definitely not accept such a harsh price!

But unfortunately, there is no if in this world.

He was also impossible to really drag the salt to Boulder City, replace it with daily necessities and electrical appliances, and exchange it for grain at the farm, and then use the grain from the farm for meat.

After going back and forth like this, you have to toss him for at least four days, even a week!    The road in the city is much harder to walk than outside, even more how winter is about to begin. Both people and aliens are frantically preparing for the coming winter.

In the wasteland, this time point is more dangerous than ever.

Regardless of the time cost or the risks involved, he is impossible to take that detour.

And the man clearly saw this.

Not only the 10kg salt, but the ten revolver rifles and two bags of ammunition he brought with him were also squeezed to death by that guy for various reasons.

Arms may be worthless in Boulder, but any survivor’s stronghold will not refuse to stock up on this easy-to-maintain, durable, and cheap weapon. It is more than enough to replace the corpses of 3 to 4 mutant hyenas. Any butcher can slaughter 60 or 70 kg of meat.

That's 70kg of meat!

It's not too much to change to 30kg of air-dried meat, right? 20kg is really not good, no loss!

However, that man, each gun is only willing to give him 10kg of uncured bacon!

No matter what he was talking about, the man was nodded for friendship and asked him to take 1kg more smoked fish.

This damn groundhog!    "I don't understand very well, but can you just make a profit?" The gunman said nonchalantly, "I always hear people say that if I am contented."

"Hehe, can you understand? What? Contentment Changle can't make a fortune."

Sun Shiqi didn't bother to pay attention to him, but just waved his pen impatiently, while burying his head on the road, whispering continued to calculate the accounts.

"...These air-dried meats need to be exchanged for at least 60kg of coarse salt. No, at least 80kg is not considered a waste trip. I have to think about which mine to do this business with."

The gunman glanced at him, then glanced at the goods on the back of the two-headed cow, and said in a relaxed tone.

"Then you should be pious and grateful."

"At least I, who came with you this time, are a contented person."

… …

130kg of bacon plus 10kg of smoked fish, changed to 10kg of coarse salt, 10 revolver rifles, two bags of ammunition and game coins.

For this transaction, Chu Guang himself is still very satisfied.

Of course, the timing is just right.

As the cold winter approaches, whoever has food is the father. In addition, the prey goes to hibernation. Occasionally, the game can be saved by throwing it in the snow, but salt is not so important.

But when the spring starts next year, it's another situation.

After all, we make air-dried meat in spring and summer, and I want to store it in winter without a little salt. It's a bit whimsical.

But again, at that time, do the outposts still need to make money by selling food?   Chu Guang doesn't think it is necessary.

In short, 130kg of smoked meat and 10kg of smoked fish cost only 60~80 Silver Coins for Chu Guang.

Even if it is calculated based on the purchase price of the granary, it is only 140 Silver Coins.

However, players currently sell their prey directly to the granary, and currently do not have their own slaughter of prey or smoked jerky, so it is more appropriate to directly use the production cost to calculate.

In fact, it doesn't matter which price is used.

After all, Chu Guang now has an extra 500kg of the same game currency.

"Money" this thing is really just a number for him as a manager...

......

The coins were dragged into the refuge and placed in an empty room with no one. Looking at the shiny coins, Chu Guang couldn't help but smile with relief.

It would be great if they could all be replaced by chips.

Let alone power armor, buying an airplane is probably enough, right?

If someone sells...

Money that doesn't enter the market has no meaning.

Chu Guang only admired his masterpiece for a while, then turned around and left the refuge, returned to the surface, and began to ponder the glass jar he had obtained from the surnamed Sun merchant.

The ants with big fists squeezed into a ball in the glass jar, flapping their legs and tentacles indiscriminately, looking for an exit.

One of the iron-backed ants facing outwards is the most energetic, using its pincer-shaped mouthparts to tap the inner wall of the glass jar one after another.

However, the inner arc surface of the glass jar is too slippery, and there is no force point for the bite. No matter how strong the bite force is, it will not help. You can only be anxious against the transparent "wall".

Chu Guang is not interested in Insect, but he wants to know how this little thing becomes the natural enemy of mutant leeches.

You must know that even the cubs of mutant leeches are much larger than their size.

So, Chu Guang went to the fishermen by the lake, borrowed a cub of a mutant leech, and then picked a strong and energetic ironback ant, and took it The two were put in the same bottle.

Something interesting happened.

The mutant leech did not immediately attack the prey in front of him, but tentatively stretched its mouthparts forward.

Seeing that the edge of the mouthparts was about to be next to the ironback ant, the mutant leech suddenly retracted like a switch, and then twisted its plump body. Arched to the other side of the bottle, as if hiding something.

And that ant is also very interesting, and seems to realize that there is a big guy near him.

But it didn't panic at all. It neither attacked immediately, nor turned to escape, but instead revolved around the inside of the bottle while shaking the tentacles on the top of its head.

What is this doing?    Could it be...

Chu Guang, who was squatting on the ground and observing, touched his chin, and suddenly a trace of suspicion appeared on his face.

"so that's how it is ......"

"It should be looking for companions."

He seemed to have guessed a bit, this kind of ant can restrain The reason for mutated leeches.

When Chu Guang was about to further verify his conjecture, players not far away were watching this and whispering.

"What is the manager doing?"

"I don't know, it seems to be playing with ants."

"I think he asked the fishing guys to take it A young leech, do you want to watch the ants fight with the leech?"

"Gan, how come there is such a strange hobby?!"

I walked to the granary holding the mushrooms Yaya happened to hear the conversation of nearby players, and there was a cold behind him, and he couldn't help but shudder.

Water, leeches?

How could anyone play such disgusting things? !

This is too terrifying......

......

After several repeated control experiments, Chu Guang finally verified his conjecture.

First of all, leeches have no eyes and mainly rely on smell to search for prey. The same is true for mutant leeches, and because of their more sensitive sense of smell, they are quite sensitive to smell.

After the ironback ant finds its prey, it immediately does not choose to attack, but like other ants, it immediately releases pheromone to tell nearby companions-there is a fat sheep here, come on together.

Although the digestive juice of mutant leeches can corrode overwhelming majority prey, it is almost ineffective against ironback ants. Even if it is swallowed whole, it cannot be digested at all. Instead, it will be bitten from the inside.

Therefore, this fear of natural enemies has almost been written into the gene of mutant leeches, so that when they smell the pheromone released by the ironback ants, they almost instinctively run away. The kind that I dare not return.

"...the case was solved."

"It's really because of this stuff."

Looking at the translucent size of the thumb nail in the hand. The gelatinous substance, Chu Guang squeezed it lightly, a bit like spoiled sago.

This thing is the pheromone gland of the ironback ant, which grows under its butt and can be pulled off without much effort.

After removing the pheromone gland of this big ant, Chu Guang threw it back into the bottle and shared it with the mutant leech.

This time, the performance of mutant leeches is much more courageous.

After several trials, I probably felt that the smell on this thing was not very similar to its natural enemies, so it finally gathered up the courage to swallow the prey in one mouthful, and then the body wriggled like waves. .

About five or six minutes passed.

The mutant leech cub, which was still squirming, suddenly stopped moving.

Chu Guang poured it out of the bottle and opened his belly with a knife.

I saw that the ant inside had been suffocated to death, but there was still a piece of meat on the mouth, which was probably torn off from a certain part of the mutant leech cub's body.

This little injury is not enough to kill the leeches. The real fatal thing may be the formic acid injected into the leeches or something else.

"It's unrealistic to get rid of the leeches in the nest."

"But if you can apply the pheromone gland extract to your body, you can pretend to be the natural enemy of mutant leeches... Can you clear the mutant leech's nest without injury?!" Realizing this, Chu Guang's face was suddenly filled with excitement, and the expressions all looking towards the glass jar changed.

I'm rich!

20kg of blue umbrella mushrooms can be exchanged for 2000 chips. If you can pick 200kg to come out...

Of course, 200kg may be a bit exaggerated.

But 100 jin should still be fine, right?    Unfortunately, these ironback ants are all worker ants, and there is no queen that can reproduce, otherwise they will be able to harvest the wool of the mutant leech nest every day!

"...you have to find a player with high proficiency in gathering skills to do this work."

Chu Guang's eyes began to cruise around the outpost, looking for the lucky one.

Suddenly, his eyes stopped on a player not far from the granary.

Crow!

The moment he saw this little player, Chu Guang's eyes immediately lit up.

Good risk.

I almost forgot her! If you    remember correctly, this player named Yaya, the innate talent happened to be "toxin intuition", and all the blue umbrella mushrooms he saw were green light!

When others enter the hole, they have to turn on the light to find it. This guy has his own night navigation when he enters the hole. Just staring at the green light will be done. It’s not easy to do hundreds Come out?

Feeling the sight of Master Manager, Yaya who has just handed in the punishment task is shivered all over.

The intuition of the sensory system allows her to predict the danger in advance.

However, at the moment when she was about to wipe the soles of her feet, Chu Guang predicted her prediction and stepped forward to trigger the plot.

"How is your punishment task done?"

Hearing the voice coming from behind, Yaya cautiously turned his head and looked at the manager trembling with fear and said.

"It's finished, it's finished... I just finished it. I have already paid 100kg."

Chu Guang nodded.

"It is just right, from now on, your status is restored to resident. In addition, I have a glorious and arduous task for you."

If it is In normal times, Yaya will definitely be happy. Next, stand up and show loyalty. After all, who would not love the hidden mission?

Maybe it can grow NPC's favorability!

But from just now, her right eye couldn't help but jump, telling her that there might be a big hole waiting in front of her.

"I may not be able to complete it, or you can find someone else--"

"Believe in yourself, you can do it, and this task can only be done by you!"

Without giving Yaya a chance to refuse, Chu Guang interrupted her low beep with a serious face, and continued speaking after a two-second pause.

"I will give you a special bottle of powder, and you will apply it on your body."

"It can ensure that you enter the lair of mutant leech without incident. And you What we need to do is to collect those mushrooms that emit green light."

The crow cried anxiously, especially after hearing the six words "mutant leech nest", he was almost scared. It has to be dropped on the spot.

"Then, that, can I come out without incident?"

Chu Guang said in a positive tone.

"It is theoretically possible."

Yaya: "???"

In theory? !

Chu Guang did not give her a chance to protest, and continued.

"The theory is just for rigor. Don't worry, the success rate is as high as 90%. Even if you fail, you will die in a special mission. There will be no punishment other than resurrecting CD."

There is still punishment! The   most uncomfortable thing is to resurrect the CD!    Yaya said pitifully: "Can you also get rid of the resurrection CD?"

Chu Guang paused for two seconds, selectively ignoring her words.

"The content of the task is very simple. You have 10 minutes of absolute safety time and 20 minutes of relative safety time."

"After entering the lair, do not worry about anything, avoid Those leeches, gather the blue mushrooms that you can see that emit green light."

"How much can you gather before the end of the time."

"Every catty of blue mushrooms— —"

"I will count you 4Copper Coin, 5 points contribution!"
