Chapter 9: Chapter 9 Gene Sequence and Player Level
The amount of work completed in the afternoon was almost three times that of the daytime.
There were a total of fifty or so pieces of wood of varying thickness, which were pulled by the players with ropes and carts and carried to the wall of the sanatorium.
To be honest, the performance of these players was beyond Chu Guang's expectations.
Each piece of wood was between 10 and 8 meters long, and the longest could even reach 20 meters, and more than half were as thick as thighs.
Chu Guang counted them and found a total of 2,000 contribution points.
Among them, Lao Bai achieved the most, and he alone made 800 points. Kuangfeng was probably the worst. This guy's clone was not good at sports, and had the physique of an ordinary person. He only earned 300 points after working all day.
As for what this thing is used for?
Chu Guang hasn't figured it out yet.
The shelter is very poor now. He only has two lollipops in his pocket, and there was a compressed biscuit before, but it has been eaten by him.
After thinking about it, he only told the players that in addition to waiting for three days to resurrect, they also need to spend resurrection coins.
And resurrection coins need to be purchased with contribution points.
Although the "purchasing power" of contribution points is a bit weak, the players don't seem to care too much.
After all, it is now the closed beta stage, and it is understandable that the game content is small. As long as you don't delete the files and save more money, you can always find a place to spend it when the server is launched.
In addition, contribution points have no entity, just a number. For the time being, you can only log in to the official website after logging off.
Although Chu Guang also wanted to learn from the Boulder City and get some visible and tangible coins, there was no way. The conditions in the shelter were too harsh, and even the materials for "coinage" could not be gathered.
He couldn't give chips to the players.
Although that thing is the hard currency in the area of Qingquan City, he himself didn't have many left.
Besides, it was useless to give them chips directly, and the players couldn't go to the survivors' base to trade by themselves.
I can communicate with the survivors because I am a soul that has traveled here and my head is filled with the language of this world.
The clones used by the players are completely blank, without even basic intelligence, let alone the idea of inherited memory.
The language used by the survivors in Qingquan City is the common language of the Human Union.
This language is completely different from the language of any country or nation in the real world, and at most it is slightly similar to Chinese in grammar and pronunciation.
In the future, Chu Guang will consider developing a translation tool to solve the problem of communication between players and "NPCs", and redesign the distribution system and economic system by the way.
But not now.
…
After counting the results of today's work, it was getting late.
Chu Guang looked up at the setting sun in the sky and squinted slightly.
It's getting night.
"Master Administrator, I found that our outpost has no electricity," Fang Chang walked up and said, "Why don't we find a way to get a generator?"
This is a good question.
Unfortunately, it's just nonsense.
"We don't have extra generators," Chu Guang looked at him, "Who among you knows this? Or has electrical skills?"
The players looked at each other.
"Can't we pull a line from underground?" Ye Shi asked a very stupid question.
"There is no such long line, and the energy in the shelter is not unlimited. Even if it can be used in the short term, the long-term problem will still not be solved, and it will bury greater hidden dangers."
At this point, Chu Guang paused.
"It's getting late, we should go back."
The return mentioned here naturally refers to "going offline" for the players.
Although it's not completely dark yet, it's already five o'clock in the afternoon, and it's about to dawn in China in the parallel world.
Unconsciously, I have been in the game world for so long. The players who came back to their senses suddenly have expressions on their faces that are not satisfied.
I always feel that there are still many places worth exploring in this world.
But there is still work to do during the day, and it is impossible to stay here forever.
...
In Shelter No. 404.
Looking at the players lying down in the incubator, Chu Guang thought that maybe he should try to recruit some idle people who don't have work during the day.
Or players from other time zones.
Otherwise, when night comes, he will be the only one left in the huge outpost, which is not suitable from a safety perspective.
"Let's continue to sleep in the shelter today."
If it is not necessary, he really doesn't want to go back to the "doghouse" on Beth Street.
Just when Chu Guang was thinking about what to do, Xiao Qi came to his side.
"Master."
"What's wrong?"
"The physical examination report of the clone has been updated. Would you like to take a look?"
Chu Guang hesitated slightly.
"…physical examination report?"
"Yes! Every time a player logs out normally, the incubator will scan the clones in the cabin, record the physical function of the clones, extract a certain number of embryonic stem cells for backup, and record the progress of gene sequence development——"
"Wait, what is a gene sequence?"
Hearing this unfamiliar keyword, Chu Guang always felt that he had missed some key information.
Facing the manager's question, Xiao Qi answered disapprovingly.
"Didn't you notice? Each clone used by each player is synthesized from different DNA, and the gene sequence is the number of different DNA."
Chu Guang then asked: "What is the development progress?"
"The DNA of each sequence is carefully designed, but unfortunately, we have not fully mastered the secrets of life."
"Not all traits of genetic information are fully expressed. It's like the children of athletes are more likely to become athletes, but they are not athletes from birth."
"The so-called development progress refers to the degree of dominant expression of special fragments in the gene sequence, usually expressed as a percentage."
"For example, if the development progress reaches 100%, it means that all the performance of the living body has been infinitely close to the limit of genetic design and has reached the most perfect state... But this is almost impossible."
"The development progress of the four gene sequences we have activated is between 0 and 1%. According to research, as long as we continue to stimulate the survival instinct and exercise the body, we can improve this value."
If "gene sequence" is understood as a profession, "development progress" is probably similar to level.
The gene sequence that focuses on strengthening strength is like the "barbarian" in the DND rules. It has stronger strength and tends to improve strength attributes.
For example, "Time flies by".
Other players are quite normal, but he has thick hair and a big body, which is obviously not like a normal person.
Good guy.
These clones - oh no, players, it turns out that they can be upgraded!
And there is also a setting called talent!
Such a great thing, he actually knows it now!
Looking at Xiao Qi who explained it casually, Chu Guang couldn't help but said.
"Why did you tell me such an important thing now? ?"
Xiao Qi said aggrievedly: "Didn't you tell me not to speak suddenly? I was going to tell you from the beginning."
Chu Guang: "..."
This guy...
It's definitely intentional!
