State of Decay - Chapter 360

[Chapter 355 Eve of the event]

Although the bow is better than a repeating crossbow, it is much faster than an ordinary crossbow. Whether it is accurate or not depends on the skill of the operator. As a game, archery has certain auxiliary judgments. To put it simply, it doubles the size of the zombie’s head. As long as it hits this range, it will be a headshot. If there is no point in not getting a headshot, shooting a hundred arrows may not kill the opponent. Therefore, among many weapons, bows and arrows are the most difficult to operate.

Before Lin Ma left the shadow, Xiao Dao’s bow and arrow skills were okay. This was all the result of Maya’s supervision. While still at the sawmill, she required her knife to shoot dead targets 100 times a day. Xiaodao had different views on this, such as saying that the target was dead, but she did not object to Maya’s request. Later, Xiaodao realized that shooting a target to death was about practicing touch and movement.

One arrow hit the zombie’s chest and the other hit the zombie’s shoulder. Lin Wu looked at it and shook his head: “Why has there been no progress at all in the past few months?”

Xiao Dao was unable to refute. After Maya’s death, Shadow had very few opportunities to go out and fight monsters, and mostly focused on construction and stockpiling supplies. Therefore, Xiaodao lacked opportunities for actual combat, and she also gave up target shooting training. Really no chance? Of course not. If Xiaodao is willing, he can go to the edge of the safe zone to practice archery with zombies, and there won’t be many problems. Even if you waste some materials, you can recover arrows by touching the zombies after shooting them, and you also have a chance to obtain basic materials. Generally speaking, you will not lose money.

This is the result of a passive personality. If no one urges you, you won’t do it. This situation is not uncommon in daily life. The most susceptible group is students. As long as the homework is not assigned by the teacher, they will be extremely resistant. Only after you have social experience can you understand the simplest truth: learning is for yourself. Get up early and come home late. The purpose of working hard is not to work hard for others, but for yourself. Either for a promotion or a raise, or to keep a job.

Lin Wu didn’t know what to say. The person he comes into contact with every day is Maya, and Xiaodao is a negative example for Maya. After death and losing her swordsmanship, Maya was not discouraged. She practiced leveling, spawned monsters, and read books without falling behind. Lin Wu can barely be considered a proactive personality. Whether he is active or not mainly depends on whether he likes it or not. Whether he likes it or not comes from whether he has a sense of accomplishment. I like the feeling of Silencer pulling the bolt, but without the accuracy of the final headshot, he wouldn’t have that motivation.

At least in Lin Wu’s opinion, bows and arrows were more handsome than all firearms.

After dealing with the fourth wave of blood plague team, Lin Wu called a halt. During the break, he did not want to provoke the fifth wave of blood plague giants. Lin Wu first went to check on Lin Meng’s condition, which was much better than the day before yesterday. After checking the infection value, he asked her to control the infection with injections, giving priority to using the 30% serum injection made by the fake doctor Maya.

Xiaodao drank some tea and went to play by herself. Perhaps she was stimulated by Lin Wu, or perhaps she suddenly realized that she used her bow to clean up all the ordinary zombies outside the farm building. Although you can’t see much progress, as long as you keep your momentum, you will become a master of archery sooner or later.

I just don’t know if she can persevere.

…

The reason why the Jeep deck is used to drive a pickup truck is of course to raise horses. Once comrades-in-arms for thousands of kilometers, Phantom and Sandstorm have now become a burden.

At night, Lin Meng and Xiao Dao shared a set of bedding and rested and chatted in the dormitory. Lin Wu was lying outside on the grass watching the two horses. If he were Xiao Dao, he would at least be able to play horseback shooting today. For Lin Wu. Even if the two horses reach the wild, they have no use value. All this is related to the special environment of Lemon Town. In other places, horses are definitely the most cost-effective means of short-distance travel.

If you want to realize the value of the two horses in Lemon Town, you must change the rules of Lemon Town, or at least destroy the monitoring system. According to the information provided by Lin Meng, the system server is 80 meters deep underground in the airport. What about sabotaging surveillance? It is not easy to destroy once it comes. Secondly, people may directly replace surveillance with drones. This conclusion was obtained by Shana through analyzing the known information. She can try it after finishing this busy period.

Lin Meng walked out of the tent and saw Lin Wu lying on the grass. Looking at his gaze, he seemed to guess Lin Wu’s thoughts: “Do you need me to handle it?” “

What?”

“Horse.”

“Why do you need to handle it?”

Lin Meng sat on the spot: “When I learned that you and Maya had ridden 3,700 kilometers back to Future City, I thought it was so hard for them. In the past few days, I have discovered that maybe 3,700 kilometers is their happiest moment.”

Lin Wu Jingjing asked: “What kind of literature are you going to play next?” Zhiyin style? Or melancholy? Or is it philosophy?

“No.” Lin Meng pointed at the phantom: “Since you don’t need her, why don’t you give her freedom? Since you don’t love her anymore, why don’t you break up?” She could airlift the two horses back to the prairie of Science and Technology City.

Lin Meng explained why he talked about breaking up: “I just heard a little bit of random thoughts from Xiaodao’s story.”

Lin Wu said: “The problem is not me, it’s it. For example, my girlfriend and I fell in love, and she silently supported me and supported me. Let me get into a good university, get a decent job in a big city, and have unlimited opportunities for advancement. Having seen the big world, I tried hard to tell myself that I must love my girlfriend, but whether I love or not is not a person. I can control it. Okay, now I no longer love her, but I am still willing to marry her and will be kind to her.”

Lin Wu said: “This has nothing to do with love or not, or need, it is purely Responsibility and morality. In a practical sense, it is indeed a burden, but can I abandon it?”

Lin Meng fell into deep thought: “Your topic is so profound that I didn’t know what to say for a while.”

Lin Wu: ” You have depth. It’s normal for Chen Shimei not to love Qin Xianglian. People change. Let alone others, he himself can’t control who he falls in love with, but it would be wrong for him not to marry Qin Xianglian.”

Lin Meng asked: “Ma Neng Do you want to play the card?”

“Can’t you?” Isn’t the horse card a bag?

Lin Mengdao: “After I go back, I will go to the agent reception desk at the airport and ask for details. The agent may also have a mount. The agent’s mount should be able to survive in Lemon Town without being threatened by the system.”

Lin Wu looked at Lin Meng: “If this can be done, , I promise not to bully you in the future.”

Lin Meng shook his head: “I don’t believe it.”

Lin Wu: “If it doesn’t work out, I will bully you every day.”

Lin Meng replied: “I believe it.” Hum!

Lin Wu pretended to be concerned and asked: “How is your health?”

Lin Meng replied: “The left arm and left rib are fractured. As long as the exercise is not too strenuous, there will be no pain. But I think this is a good thing.”

Lin Wu admired: “Very good. You rarely hear that.”

Lin Meng: “I’m not kidding. After the two fractures, the pain took control of my range of motion. Whenever I moved too much, they would remind me: hold back. Now my The killing efficiency is very high.”

Lin Wu said: “But it will hurt, and it will last for a while.”

Lin Meng: “It’s just painful, just scream out when it hurts, and then it won’t hurt anymore.”

Lin Wu stretched out his hand With one tug, he pulled out a few hairs around Lin Meng’s ears. Lin Meng immediately cried out: “Oh, it hurts.”

“Then it won’t hurt anymore.”

Lin Meng: “But this pain won’t improve my abilities. .”

Lin Wu said: “But it can help me get a few hairs.”

Lin dreamed for two seconds and said: “As long as you are happy, I can bear it.”

Lin Wu was stunned for a long time without saying anything, and asked: “What if I am a bad person? I am a bad person in reality. You would say, as long as you Are you happy, can I bear it?”

Lin Meng was stunned this time, and said after a long time: “I thought we were already friends.”

“Yes, yes, yes.” Lin Wu said quickly: “Of course we are friends.” The dead girl is very good at talking. She doesn’t have murderous intent in her attacks, but her moves are deadly.

Lin Mengdao: “No matter how bad a person is, he still has friends, right?”

I said right, then I am a bad person. I said it was wrong, and I fell into a trap again. But Lin Meng couldn’t tell that his expression was fake, it seemed like it was just a simple conversation without any scheming.

Lin Wu said: “I don’t know bad people. A good person like me must have friends.”

Lin Meng grinned: “Lin Wu, you are so shameless.”

Lin Wu was speechless again. He really couldn’t argue with Lin Meng about himself. Good or bad question.

Lin Meng stood up: “Go to bed early and eat instant noodles tomorrow morning.”

“Good night.”

“Good night.”

After sitting for a while, Lin Wu stood up and touched the phantom’s neck, then entered the tent with Xiao Wai and used it by the campfire. The body rolled up into its own bed and went to sleep.

The two girls had been chatting in the dormitory for who knows how long. They both looked sleep deprived the next morning. Lin Wu praised: “It’s the first time I see dark circles under my eyes. They are contagious.”

Lin Meng’s idea was beyond Lin Wu’s expectation. Not only did he not refute Lin Wu with Xiao Dao, but he and Xiao Dao discussed who was infected with whom. The knife was taken into the ditch by her, and the whole topic lasted all breakfast.

Using the building materials in stock, Lin Wu built a kitchen yesterday. Although the food cooked by this thing is not as delicious as the food cooked by himself, it is not fast and trouble-free.

On the 23rd, continue to fight the blood epidemic. I have to say that Lin Meng’s progress is obvious. He not only hits the head with every move, but also can grasp the distance. Lin Wu only cared about the violent blood, and the blood zombies that came with it were left to them to deal with. As before, Blood Frenzy is still very powerful, dropping one bottle of serum for every three animals on average.

Meanwhile, the base command is participating in the auction. The auction started at 8 a.m., and at 8:30 the winner came out: the Albatross bi-wing, two-seat propeller trainer. This is an early World War I aircraft with a top speed of nearly 200 kilometers per hour. Combat capabilities vary from player to player. There are two crew members. The one in the front is responsible for flying the plane, and the one at the back is responsible for throwing things and shooting below.

From a practical perspective, it is relatively average. The target on the ground should hit the aircraft before the gunner on the aircraft hits the target. The biggest highlight is fuel consumption, which is about 20 liters per 100 kilometers. And the terrain requirements for takeoff and landing are low. As a means of transportation, the albatross is definitely the king.

This is an auction item given by the system, so the reserve price is displayed, and the reserve price is 300 rounds of pistol bullets. After deducting the handling fee, you need 330 rounds of hand ammunition to have a chance to buy it.

In the end, Albatross failed to shoot without any suspense.

At nine o’clock, the first outpost card in today’s auction appeared. In the first 10 seconds, the price of the outpost card directly exceeded 100 bullets, and it was still rising rapidly. The price has reached 150 rounds of hand ammunition in 20 seconds. The price drove Maya crazy. Her personality was not suitable for participating in the auction. Fortunately, she had Shanna by her side.

Shana definitely told Maya that if the auction for the first one is fierce, the price will most likely be lower than the second one. As for why, it contained a lot of content, and Maya didn’t have time to listen. She was ready to smash the plate and got 160 rounds of hand ammunition. Shana stopped: “Add one shot, no matter how much the other party bids, you only add one shot.” Either use big funds to make a thunderous strike, or play like a mangy dog. The latter will cause the opponent to be weak. He will add 10 shots each time, and you will add 1 shot each time. He needs to think, but you don’t need to think. The most disgusting thing is of course the two people firing shots at each other.

“Stop.” When the price reached 180, Shana stopped: “Bid in the last 3 seconds. This is to warn the other party that if he bids more, we will no longer bid.” The other party will think that 180 has reached their psychological bottom line. Considering that there is still a sentinel card, you must consider whether your bid will be too high.

Maya followed the last three seconds Shana said and asked, “What if the other party also bids 10 rounds in the last three seconds?” “

Starting from 160 rounds, there are only two competitors left. If the other party bids 190, You can give the card to him. Because the price difference of 30 rounds between 160 and 190 is huge, I believe we can get the second card within 190. If there are multiple players struggling to reach 190, then we must bite the bullet and fight it. , because the next outpost card will inevitably exceed 190.”

Waiting for ten seconds, as the auction ended, the final price of the outpost card was fixed at 181 rounds, and Shadow obtained this outpost card.

Shana said: “If I were the owner of the second outpost card, I would find a way to contact my ally, transfer my ammunition to him, and ask him to raise the price to more than 190. If I am bold, I can even raise the price to 220. Because No one knows whether there will be outpost cards in the future, and the ferocity of the other party’s bid is obviously equivalent to our urgency for the outpost cards.”

Shana: “The most important thing is that today’s auction is the last auction of this season, because We are about to enter the event dungeon, and it is difficult to say how the price will fluctuate by then. There is also a possibility that the points obtained from the event can be used to directly purchase outpost cards. Then the outpost cards will be worthless, and we will become the ones who are taken advantage of.”

The two did not discuss the evening . Lin Wu didn’t come back at eight o’clock. Based on their understanding of Lin Wu, as long as nothing happened, Lin Wu would definitely abide by the time.

…

Closing the stall, doing more than a dozen waves, finishing the stall, pulling up the pickup truck, and driving away. Interlude: Lin Meng was carried to the passenger seat by a knife. The girl had her left leg broken. She could still walk, but she walked slowly and crookedly.

When Xiaodao asked about the treatment situation, Lin Meng replied: “I can go to the hospital at the airport for treatment, which is actually a clinic. In addition to Lemon Town, Fortress has 20 logistics support offices in ten cities.” Xiaodao

asked : “Need points?”

“Yes.” Lin Mengdao: “In my case, I need about 300 points.” Xiaodao

: “But you don’t have 300 points.”

Lin Mengdao: “You forgot that I can sell weapons? I got it last time A turning gun? You can sell it for 400 points.” Buy it for 1,200 and sell it for 400. The Fortress Shop sells the vast majority of weapons and in turn recycles the vast majority of weapons.

Lin Wu said: “Don’t be so pitiful. When you return to the base, go find Shana and see if there is any excess garbage in the inventory that can be sold.”

Lin Meng: “There is no pity.” How can there be pity when you are angry?

Lin Wu said: “If you like the turning gun, keep it. Shadow is not to the point where you have to cut it off to survive.”

Lin Meng: “Oh.” Even though they are already familiar with each other, they have made it clear that they are friends. But the evil power was still there, and Lin Meng didn’t dare to refute Lin Wu’s words.

Xiaodao couldn’t stand it: “She didn’t say anything.”

Lin Wu said: “I don’t like that she doesn’t treat us as her own. If you have difficulties or problems, you should take the initiative to speak out, instead of thinking about selling your favorite things.”

Lin Meng: “I know, I’ll tell you when I get back, loudly.”
