This Game Is Too Realistic
chapter-84-2-30041322

Yu Hu was used to it. After all, he had been here several times, but it was his cousin’s first time here, and he always felt uncomfortable.

"Please don't take it to heart, they have been underground for a long time and have never seen anyone outside of the shelter, so they will be curious when outsiders come."

Seeing this important man in a blue coat talking to him, Li Niu quickly waved his hand and said, "It's okay, it's okay, I don't mind it."

Chu Guang nodded, took the two to the warehouse, and handed them directly to the warehouse manager Luca who was standing there.

The old slave recognized Yu Hu, and immediately understood what he had to do. He took the man named Li Niu to the slaughter stall very skillfully.

Yu Hu handed over all the prey to him, but this time, instead of following along, leaned close to Chu Guang and stared at the big hammer curiously.

"Brother Chu, is this your weapon?"

"Mhm, for now."

"Such a big hammer? Can it even be used?"

"Of course."

"Then, you killed the Crackleclaw Crab just now with this hammer?"

"Yes."

After getting an affirmative answer, the young man's eyes almost popped out. It took a long time for him to digest the shock in his heart.

"So strong!"

Crackleclaw Crab！

It was a monster that no scavengers would want to encounter.

This thing had a fast advancing speed in a narrow terrain, a very high explosive power, and a simple mindset. Once it locked the target, it would chase the target to the death.

Unless one could find a higher place to climb up, there was basically no escape.

Almost nothing could defeat this monster head-on. Even the mutant brown bear was unwilling to fight with it.

Chu Guang smiled without explaining.

It didn't matter whether he was strong or not, as long as the power of technology was strong enough.

A nuclear-powered sledgehammer, coupled with a chemically-powered exoskeleton, could even knock down a wall, let alone a beast's face.

"Speaking of which, how is the situation on your side? It seems like this snow is going to keep falling for a while."

"It's almost the same every year, we can only make do with it," Yu Hu was much more optimistic than Chu Guang expected, "but this winter came too early this year, and we were prepared in a hurry. Originally, in October, there would still be caravans coming, but who would have thought that late September this year would be the last wave... Sigh."

Chu Guang comforted him.

"Think about it from another angle, the meat will last longer in cold weather."

Yu Hu shook his head.

"But it's hard to find the prey. If we want to catch the prey, we’d have to continue walking into the city to find the nests of those mutants."

Chu Guang said with interest.

"Oh? Do you have any experience?"

Yu Hu nodded.

"It's not much of an experience. Many small animals love to build nests in those kinds of half-upside-down buildings, especially the kind where the trees grow into them. Some hyenas, jackals, and animals that eat meat would also follow them in. You can find prey in such places all year round... It is just a bit risky."

"Crunchers?"

"Mhm, Crunchers like to hide in the building the most, but they don’t hide too high. We normally start sweeping from the fourth floor. But even so, it’s hard to say what we will encounter in it. Maybe it’s a nest of ten thousand mice, or maybe it is a resting creeper. Without a gun, we don't dare to go too deep, at most we can go to zone 5."

Chu Guang sighed.

"It's snowing, and it won't be easy to go inside."

Yu Hu said with a wry smile.

"Even without snow, it is still not easy to go into the city. The road there is like a maze, and some streets are flooded all year round!"

The straight line distance from Bett Street to Boulder City on the map was more than ten kilometers; that was, from outside the zone 5 of Qingquan City to the edge of the zone 3, and the wetland park was a little further away.

Chu Guang couldn't find Qingquan City in the parallel world, but he could draw a line of more than 10 kilometers on a map from the riverside to the city downtown by comparing its distance from the river to the city where he once lived.

What does this distance mean?

It means that if there is no traffic jam, it would take half an hour if there are many straight roads, maybe an hour if there are more forks.

As for walking?

Chu Guang has never tried to travel that far, but even if he couldn't generalize, he still wouldn’t be able to run past twenty flyovers or underground tunnels.

And this was still under normal traffic conditions.

To traverse the ruins was a completely different concept.

In the pre-war era, even the shortest buildings within zone 4 were basically over 600 meters tall. The magnetic base and magnetic nodes laid on the external walls of highways and buildings were the foundation for supporting three-dimensional traffic with 120 vertical lanes.

In that era when maglev technology was popularized in private cars, the meaning of high-rise buildings was no longer just a "house", but even a part of a "road", especially for buildings close to main roads, where height requirements were even more rigid.

Of course, these were all speculations made by Chu Guang based on the stories told by old Charlie and limited information, and they were not necessarily true.

But by just imagining those row upon row of dominoes, he could feel the oppression brought by this reinforced concrete cemetery.

People always had instinctive awe or even fear for creations that were hundreds of times bigger than themselves. It was indeed not an easy task to search for prey on this ruin...

Chu Guang suggested.

"Why don't you all move to my place? I happen to be short of manpower."

Although a little tempted, Yu Hu still shook his head.

"No, no, we can't trouble you."

Chu Guang said with a smile.

"This is no trouble. I am not feeding you for free. At best, we can help each other."

Yu Hu shook his head faster.

"It's okay to come here to help you, and it's okay to live for a few days, but we still can't move over. We still prefer to live there, living underground... It always feels weird. Besides, we can’t understand anyone here besides you. It’s definitely hard for us to get along with other people."

Seeing that he said so, Chu Guang didn't insist on it anymore.

Although Chu Guang wanted to say that they were actually different from the traditional "blue coated shelter people" and did not always live underground, this was obviously not the key to the problem.

When a person refused based on consideration of multiple reasons, the reason given was often the most irrelevant one.

The most typical example is "You are a nice guy."

So Chu Guang never listened to explanations.

Trust takes time to build, he couldn’t force it.

Moreover, it’s not like they don’t have a home.

He couldn’t just demolish other people's homes and force them to live with him.

Yu Hu changed the subject and asked with a silly smile.

"Speaking of which, Brother Chu, is the meat on that big crab edible? This is the first time I have seen someone catch this guy."

Chu Guang said with a laugh.

"I don't know, I was thinking about asking you."

"Me? How do I know? I heard that the mother's crab roe can be eaten, but I haven't heard anyone say whether the crab meat can... If it can be eaten, it would be great. Such a big crab, imagine how much meat there is."

Thinking that, Yu Hu started drooling.

Chu Guang smiled and waved his hand.

"Maybe next time! I still need to find out whether it is poisonous or not. If it is not poisonous, you can eat as much as you want next time!"

Yu Hu nodded vigorously and smiled.

"Okay! Then next time, I will bring my big brother, father and Xiaoyu!"

"Haha, you can just take a portion home."

The two chatted for a while, and the slaughter over the other side also finished.

Probably because of the beginning of winter, the meat extraction rate of 250 kilograms of the wild boar reached 60%, and 150 kilograms of meat were harvested.

Twenty percent of the 30 kilograms was a reward for the shelter. The remaining 120 kilograms were given to the man of the Li family and Yu Hu.

Wild boar skin was also considered high-quality leather, especially when it came to armor. Although its scarcity was not as good as deerskin, its value was still much higher than that of hyena skin.

After Luca asked Chu Guang for instructions, he still counted 300g of coarse salt for the man at the price of deerskin.

After getting the salt, the guy looked happy, thanking Chu Guang and Luca for a while, and then left with Yu Hu.

“Luca.”

Seeing his master talk to him, Luca bowed his head respectfully.

"Do you have any orders, sir?"

Chu Guang asked.

"Can the meat of Crackleclaw Crab be eaten?"

Luca froze for a moment, frowned and thought for a while, then said cautiously.

"I, I have never seen such a thing, sir... But if you are unsure, I can taste it to check if it is poisonous for you."

"That's not necessary."

If he really needed someone to test if it was poisonous, he could find those players. After all, even if they were poisoned, once they laid down in the culture chamber, they would recover very soon.

Moreover, even if the poison reacted very fast and they died before they could lie down in the culture chamber, they would still be able to come back alive after three days of respawning CD.

But at this moment, Chu Guang suddenly thought of someone, and his eyes lit up instantly.

That’s right.

How did I forget her?

I can just give it to Ya Ya!
