Chapter 38: Incomplete startup core

Before the nuclear war, the area of ​​Xuzhou City in the old age had exceeded tens of thousands of square kilometers. Excluding mountains and hills and suburbs, the densely built urban area alone was nearly 4,000 square kilometers. The area occupied by Thunder City was nothing more than It is less than one-tenth of the urban area of ​​this prefecture-level city in Suzhou.
This huge ruined city has completely become a paradise for mutant creatures and explorers. Near Thunder City, human players can be seen from time to time, and the deeper it is, the number of players around will gradually become scarce. From this, there are more unknown dangers.
　　The players wandering among the urban ruins are divided into three kinds of people. According to those who have been around them, these three kinds of people have their own special nicknames: hunters, pioneers, and scavengers.
Among them, the strength of hunters is the strongest. To become hunters, you must either be an evolutionary yourself, or a player with superb combat skills and sophisticated equipment. This group of people is active in the most inaccessible places in the ruins. The goal is to hunt down those mutant creatures. Most of the various monster materials and the serum dropped by the BOSS in the Thunder City business are from hunters.
The pioneers are hired by Thunder City, often in groups of dozens of people. Their task is to clean up the ruins, draw maps, and work for the continued expansion of Thunder City, like cleaning up subways and sewage disposal as mentioned by the guards. The pioneers of the system also belong to this category. The strength of the pioneers is not as strong as that of the hunters, but because they are all teamed up, the security is higher.
Scavengers are the most special group of players. Among them, there are evolvers, women and children who have no power to bind chickens, some are in groups, and some are single-handed. The more profitable day is the entry and exit of tens of thousands of resource points. , No less than hunters, and those who earn less often have nothing to gain for several days, and food is a problem.
　　 What they did was to find valuable things from the ruined city, and then bring these things back to the area controlled by the player-for example, Thunder City.
　　 Scavengers are mixed with fish and dragons, and Thunder City can't manage and coordinate well. It simply allows it to develop freely. Only a few powerful and unique scavengers can establish long-term cooperative relationships with some major firms.
　　The strongest of these scavengers often explore places deeper than hunters. They may not be able to kill the powerful mutant creatures located deep in the city, but the ability to escape and hide is absolutely top-notch.
　　And like ordinary scavengers, they basically follow the trailblazer team, looking for some valuable scraps in the cleared area...

　　 The counterfeit who had misappropriated Klein's identity manipulated the Chilong Six and rushed directly into the depths of the ruins. Qi Lin followed his trail all the way, and this was already the third day after leaving Thunder City.
　　 In addition to being offline 20 minutes a day to solve the problem of eating and drinking Lazar, Qi Lin has been in the game for almost this time, and even Xiao Lei couldn't help but complain that Qi Lin was more addicted than himself.
It’s been half a day since the last time we settled at the forefront scavenger supply station. Qi Lin is now squatting in a messenger room in the ruins of an old school. In front of him, a small marching pot is boiling. A fragrant mushroom soup.
　　 This kind of fungus that grows on waste soil has a very strong taste, but it contains a lot of radiation. It is no different between eating poison and poison, but in Qi Lin, it is only harmless and delicious.
After confirming that there were no other players around, Qi Lin took out the [Mechanical Parts HK2] from the auction house and the [Mechanical Parts HK7] obtained from his previous mission, and just put these two parts together. The two parts seemed to sense the presence of each other, and they trembled slightly, and red light began to appear in the gap between the parts.
　　 "Sure enough!"
　　 Seeing that the guess in his heart was verified, Qi Lin was overjoyed and immediately pasted the two parts together.
　　 Accompanied by a slight metal clicking sound, the two parts snapped into each other, and then even the name changed.
　　 "[Incomplete activation core]. Orange item. Unknown purpose. Completeness 2/7, missing parts: 1, 3, 4, 5, 6."
　　 "It turned out to be an orange item!"
Qi Lin was surprised. So far, the only orange item that has appeared in this game is the City Heart of Thunder City. Besides, even the Chilong Six Power Armor that he is currently tracking is also It's just purple quality.
The meaning of orange quality is "legend". Although Chilong Six Power Armor is powerful, it is still a mass-produced weapon. It's just...what is this incomplete activation core, it can actually be called The word "legend"?
　　 This "startup core" is currently only two-sevenths complete, and there are five more parts to collect, but when it is complete, what changes will happen?
Qi Lin can't guess at all, but what he understands is that this thing must not be known now. The orange item, even if it is a piece of garbage, will cause an uproar in the entire game world. It is uncertain, and he expressed it to himself not long ago. With a well-intentioned thunder, you will immediately send out the masters of the city to chase yourself...
　　 Carefully hid the activation core in the dark layer of the backpack, Qi Lin stabilized his mood, only to find that the grass and mushroom soup were overcooked!

　　 Thunder City, the central hub of the bunker, the global control room.
Bryce, who Qi Lin secretly gave a sissy nickname, is contrary to the usual normal, with a bitter face, constantly scratching his nails, even the nail polish applied on it is about to be shaved off. Not aware of it.
　　 Opposite him, there is a handsome boy who is less than twenty years old standing, with an arrogant and domineering face, but with a hint of yin in his eyes.
　　 "Why? That 9527 is just a poor boy from a slum, is he confused? Give an E-class serum to a lowly outsider who has nothing to do with the consortium?"
　　 "Four young masters, the lord of the city... he meant that, and..."
　　 Bryce frowned. UU read www.uukanshu.com to explain something, but was quickly interrupted by the boy.
"And what? The serum is the property of the consortium. As a member of the permanent board of directors of the consortium, I have the right to deal with this serum. Don't you know that the captain of my guard can be promoted to the second-level evolutionary soon? This serum , Why not use it on your own person?"
　　 "Four young masters, if you take it directly, the boss... the city lord is not easy to explain."
　　Bryce had just finished speaking, and suddenly, the boy had a sinister smile on his face, and said, "Uncle meant I can't take it away, right?"
　　 "This serum has already been promised as a reward for the mission. If the Fourth Young Master wants it, wait a few days. The hunter team in the city will be back soon..."
"As one of Thunder City's possessions, do I also have the right to make a small increase in the difficulty of the task? As long as the 9527 can't complete the task, then it is naturally impossible for him to get this serum." Suddenly the conversation turned around and asked.
　　 Hearing that the young man wanted to modify the mission on his own, Bryce shook his head quickly: "If you change the content of the mission directly, where will the reputation of Thunder City be placed? Please think twice!"
"Don't worry, I won't modify the content of the task directly. I just add a little trouble to the guy who doesn't know the heights of the sky. Even if his uncle knows it, he won't say anything!" This was said by Bryce. With a sneer for the fourth young master, Bryce left Bryce on the spot, turned around and walked away.
　　 Looking at the boy who left, Bryce shook his head reluctantly. As a servant, no matter how high his level is, he is just a high-level servant. There are some things that he can't intervene.
