This Game Is Too Realistic

Near the east gate of the Wetland Park.

The battle between players and mutant humans continued.

After Sideline Slacking led the team to get a kill, he quickly retreated with his teammates. Following the retreat route marked on the VM map, they quickly retreated to the evacuation point on the adjacent street.

Normally, other FPS games would show that the mission was completed at this point.

But for an open-world game like Wasteland Online, a monster’s hatred didn’t seem to depend on how far it was from its camp, but rather how much it wanted to tear you apart.

The mutant humans who came out chasing him did not swarm into the ambush circle, but divided into three teams to flank their ass.

This also led to the fact that in addition to the mutant humans who rushed onto the street first and was caught by surprise by the players who were ambushing here, the remaining two teams of mutant humans with full HP and hatred also entered the battlefield.

Fifteen against thirty.

Even if the players had an advantage in numbers, having only twice the number was obviously far from enough to fill the gap in levels and attributes.

"Fuck! Just how much HP does a mutant human have?!"

"Two shots in the chest still wouldn’t kill them. Do I have to shoot them in the head?!"

"This is so disgusting, I can’t kill them without an anti-material rifle!"

"I’m afraid the anti-material rifle will not be very useful. It’s not a problem of whether the bullet can penetrate it or not. After all, even if the bullets penetrate them, they still look like nothing happened to them. I think at least it has to be a recoilless rifle or RPG!"

"Holy shit, brother, do you also play Squad? Let’s team up next time."

"Uh, I play ARMA 3 more often… So I don’t understand what you are saying."

"Developers, stop messing around! Their health regeneration is simply too unreasonable!"

After firing a few rounds of arrows, the mutant humans gradually began to discover that those humans seemed to have no other means other than shooting small water pipes.

There also appeared to be no other reinforcements around.

A hideous smile gradually appeared on those green brutes’ faces. The mutant humans who were close by carried the hood and door removed from the car wreckage as a shield, and drew out axes and short knives, ready to fight those skinny humans in close quarters.

Looking at the fallen teammate next to him, remembering his promise as a man, Sideline Slacking had a sad and angry expression on his face. He removed the VM on his arm and stuffed it into the arms of his comrades beside him.

"Brother, this is my VM, you bring it back for me!"

The player was stunned for a moment, and said dumbly.

"Damn, what are you doing?"

"I said I would bring all the brothers back alive, but it turned out that I was the only one left." The more he talked, the more embarrassed he felt.

He also stuffed his beloved gun into the hands of his teammates, and picked up the spear on the ground.

"You, head back! I’m going to fight them to the death…"

Before he finished speaking, there was a loud blast.

The head of a mutant human soldier who had just left the cover and rushed over to him exploded in a burst of blood mist, and fell to the side.

Looking at the sudden scene, the players who were squatting behind the cover and shooting were stunned.

What the fuck?

What happened?

Did the developers finally stop messing around?!

The mutant humans who had just rushed halfway were also dumbfounded. They stared at the fallen comrades in confusion, and fell into chaos for a while.

Head?

Why is it gone?!

Time did not stop due to the stunned force of the two sides, and the sonic boom that pierced the air sounded like scattering beans!

The metal projectiles, which had been accelerated to Mach 5 by the electromagnetic rail, burst out of the chambers and shot from the side of the street like a storm.

The mutant human warriors who had rushed to the street were instantly destroyed by the sudden attack, their bodies were blasted into pieces, and their body parts scattered everywhere.

Some mutant humans’ bodies were riddled with holes instantly. They fell into a pool of blood and stopped breathing before they even had time to scream.

There was no need to mention flesh and blood. Even a steel plate less than 20mm thick would be like a piece of paper in the face of the horrific amount of kinetic energy contained in those projectiles.

Looking at the four exoframes walking out of the shadows, and the flickering arcs of the muzzles, the eyes of the players crouching behind the cover were wide open in astonishment.

"Holy shit… What is this?!"

"Exoframe?! Awesome! It’s the exoframe on the official website!"

"Are they allies?!"

"Probably? It looks like they are here to kill mutant humans!"

"The developers are awesome!"

"This is so damn cool..."

There were envious expressions on the faces of many players.

The smooth ergonomic design, angular breastplate and shoulder armor perfectly matched their violent aesthetic.

And those amazingly powerful Gauss Rifles!

These green-skinned brutes were like papers in front of them.

To sum it up in one sentence… It’s freaking awesome!

"I bet that this group of people is at least level 30!"

"Not necessarily, only their equipment is strong. If I have a whole set, I’ll be as powerful as them!"

"Give me a break! But then again, Wasteland Online’s equipment doesn’t seem to have a level limit?"

"I see in the settings that some weapons seem to have attribute requirements. For example, the administrator’s hammer has a high demand for strength... At least that’s what it seems like..."

"Say, what would happen to the exoframe’s armor if it was hit by the administrator’s hammer?"

"Emmm… You can ask the developers..."

The battlefield turned into a one-sided slaughter.

The players had stopped firing. They stood to the side, and completely handed over the battlefield to this group of friendly troops that came out of nowhere.

Their little water pipes couldn’t help anyway.

It was better to save some bullets and watch the cutscene.

In the middle of the storm, instead of retreating, the agitated mutant humans roared and charged towards the members clad in exoframes. Their muscular arms swung out, trying to hit the newcomers with stones, javelins, and axes.

However, in the face of the thick steel plate, their attacks were no different from scatches. They could only make tinkling sounds on the armor.

They were like cavalry charging into a group of tanks.

The reckless behavior of these mutant humans hastened their demise.

"Did these beasts only have muscles for brains? It’s okay to charge at those survivors, but how stupid are they to charge at exoframes?"

Looking at the axe that fell on his chest and bounced off, a marine grinned. Taking out the overheated barrel from the magnetic rail, and replacing it with a new one, he continued to pull the trigger.

"Hahaha, I agree! The green-skinned monsters on the east coast at least know how to put two useless steel plates on their chests!"

Less than three minutes after they stepped into the battlefield, most of the mutant humans had been killed or injured, and the streets were full of body parts, broken arms, and bloody corpses.

The battlefield was brutal but the fighting basically ceased.

Lu Yang raised his right fist to signal a ceasefire to his teammates, and was about to step forward to check the situation of the friendly troops.

However, something unexpected happened the very next moment.

In the shadows beside the street, an angry roar ripped through the air.

Then everyone saw that a green-skinned brute with his top naked stood up with an iron bucket in his arms, and slammed it forward.

With the most primitive brute force, he threw the iron bucket and anger at the iron lumps who slaughtered his companions.

As the fuse slowly burned out, the iron barrel filled with explosives exploded in mid-air!

Although the suddenly violent mutant human was killed instantly by the soldiers who reacted quickly, the billowing smoke and shrapnel swallowed the nearest exoframe.

The flying shrapnel obviously didn’t damage the armor, leaving only some small scratches. However, due to the angle, the shock wave of the explosion shook the soldier inside violently.

There were violent coughs in the communication channel. The stunned soldier stumbled out of the smoke with the gun in his left hand, his right hand pressing on the undamaged helmet as he shook his dizzy head repeatedly.

The teammate next to him saw this and went up to help him. "Shit... Brother, are you okay?"

"He’s fine. Maybe he just needs a new pair of pants."

"Fuck... fuck you! Cough cough... I feel like I need to see a doctor."

"What kind of doctor?"

"Maybe a colostomy specialist, I suspect that he was taken aback and swallowed the gum in his mouth."

"Shut up!"

After reprimanding his team members, Lu Yang stretched out his hand to grab the comrade who was hit by the explosion. He pressed his shoulders and made him look at him, staring at his helmet and said earnestly.

"Are you okay?"

Taking a deep breath, the soldier nodded.

"I… I’m fine!"

"Very good!"

Lu Yang patted his shoulder armor, nodded affirmatively, then raised his right fist and swung forward, making an offensive gesture.

"Keep pushing!"

"Let’s get rid of all the bugs before the sun goes down."

"Don’t leave a single one!"

…

Far away.

Chu Guang, who was peeping through the drone, told Little Seven to capture those wonderful moments while commenting on the combat effectiveness of the marines.

"... It seems that this exoframe is not completely invincible. I thought it would at least be equipped with a nitrogen shield, or something else on it."

"However, to be able to withstand dozens of kilograms of explosives at such an extreme distance, it is also very strong. It’s a bit exaggerated to say that it makes them a humanoid tank, but it’s not that exaggerated to say that at least brings them to the level of a humanoid armored vehicle.”

The mutant human’s technology tree was at most upgraded to black gunpowder, and the explosive power of black gunpowder of the same mass was only about one fifth or one tenth of TNT.

Ignoring the effects of other factors such as detonation speed and explosive burning speed, the power just now was probably comparable to the power of 5 to 10 kilograms of TNT.

It wasn’t actually weak.

"If there is a conflict, I think... 10 kilograms is probably not enough, but 50 kilograms of TNT is definitely enough."

Chu Guang evaluated his new allies highly.

At that point in the battle, there was basically no suspense.

Under the cover of an observer, the four marines wearing exoframes advanced along the alleys between the abandoned buildings, and cleanly eliminated the mutant humans lying in ambush in the alleys and ruins.

Maybe it was because he was thinking too much, or maybe it was because those soldiers were flexing, Chu Guang always felt that they were showing off.

But it didn’t matter.

Chu Guang wished they were more showy. It was best to show the full performance of the exoframe, so that his game trailer could also be more impactful.

"Little Seven, get closer, stick to them from the upper left, and let the camera follow them in their forward charge. We need to capture their momentum in the video!"

"Ah? Do you still want me to get closer? But I’m worried that a stray bullet will accidentally..."

And what momentum was its master talking about?

"It’s alright, you just need to focus on taking the footage. Anyway, they will pay for it if it breaks!" Chu Guang said without hesitation.

"Okay, okay..."

Looking at the exoframe that jumped five meters high with the help of the vortex engine, easily crossed the obstacles before landing steadily, Chu Guang commanded Little Seven to take a few close-ups while feeling envious.

Their maneuverability is really awesome! It’s like a Hummer flying down an alley.

With the ability to jump like that, who the hell would be afraid of an RPG?

They can probably even run after the RPG!

Sigh, I really want one!

In just five minutes, the battle outside the mutant human camp was over, and the little bit of resistance that remained was just a dying struggle.

Instructing Little Seven to raise the camera again, Chu Guang looked at the marines that broke into the mutant human camp, feeling slight pity for the green-skinned dudes.

"It would be great if there was a long-range tactical nuclear strike," Chu Guang sighed.

Little Seven hummed weakly, "But, wouldn’t that hurt your players by mistake?"

By that time, the players also entered the alley near the mutant human camp. They were not here to support allies, but mainly to steal some kills

A corpse of a mutant human could be exchanged for a lot of money!

Did it matter if it wasn’t killed by them?

NPCs wouldn’t compete with players anyway.

Chu Guang didn’t care about the behavior of the players. Mutant human’s corpses could also be used to extract Active Matter, and after their old experiments, he discovered it could generate quite a lot.

At the same time, a light blue pop-up window appeared in Chu Guang’s eyes.

[Mission Complete]

[Requirement: Destroy the mutant human tribe on 76th Street]

[Reward: 200 bonus points]

...

"The area is cleared."

"Confirmed 47 mutant humans killed... It’s a lot more than the information provided by our friendly force. And because of their inaccurate intel, one of our buddies suffered serious brain damage, I think they should give us some compensation."

"Fuck off… If you dare to mention my brain again, I’ll put my fist in your mouth!"

"Hahaha, calm down, I was just joking."

The soldiers who occupied the camp were joking with each other on the communication channel. This time, Lu Yang ignored them. After the battle, they really needed to relax a bit.

All mutant humans had been removed, and not a single live one was spared.

In fact, the mutant humans also didn’t give them a chance to spare them.

From the moment they entered the fortress, the green-skinned monsters in strange clothes in the camp rushed towards them like crazy.

Of course, it was completely useless.

In front of the Gauss Rifle, not to mention their muscles, even their wooden stockades were the same as paper.

They drove the remaining mutant humans to the east side of the camp, which was probably the leader’s tent, or something like that. Then they shot inside until the barrel of the guns between the magnetic rails was burning red, and then they stopped and went in to finish them off.

There was no need to talk about kindness to those mutant humans.

They hadn’t done one good thing in two centuries.

"Captain, and here and check this out..."

"What did you find?"

"Some interesting things… You can come and have a look."

Hearing the voice of his comrades, Lu Yang, who was explaining the situation to the Pioneer 10 kilometers away, immediately walked towards the teammate.

In front of the two of them was a spacious wooden house, the door of which was wide at both ends and narrow in the middle, with spikes hanging from the eaves, like the mouth of a monster. In the house were displayed parts taken from some prey, including bear claws, deer heads, dogs with two heads, and human hands.

The mutant human had a peculiar tribal culture. They not only worshiped blood and violence, but also had a unique feeling for the mutants in the wasteland.

They would not eat the whole prey, but would keep a part of it, half of which would be smeared with liquid containing copper sulfate and nitrous acid, as a trophy collection, and the other half would be thrown at the gate of the camp or outside the fence as tributes to the gods in their minds... Although most of these tributes would end up being eaten by creatures such as rats and cockroaches.

It was kind of like an altar for loot.

"Is there anything worth noting here?" Lu Yang glanced at the situation in the room, a look of disgust appeared on his face.

If he could, he really didn’t want to stay here for a second more.

"Yes Captain… I found something strange here."

Saying that, the teammate shone light from his helmet on the floor.

Lu Yang looked along the light and saw a deep bloodstain printed on the wooden floor.

Looking at the shape, it looked a bit like the stains where a corpse was dragged across the floor.

"It’s a bit like a place of sacrifice, where the mutant human slaughtered the prey and then dismembered it."

"Okay, you don’t need to explain it. I know how they do it." Lu Yang frowned and stepped forward. His right foot stepped on the floor made of solid wood and heard a strange sound.

There seemed to be something strange with the sound produced.

Stomping down, his foot smashed the wood plank into pieces.

As expected!

The floor below was empty.

Lu Yang did the same and broke a few more pieces of wood planks, and shot a beam of light down below. What he saw was a tunnel with strange symbols engraved on the wall.

"... There is a tunnel?" The teammate walked up to him and said, comparing the pre-war maps in the database.

"Our current location should be the central flower bed of a community... Judging from the concrete structure below, this underground passage should have been built before the war."

So those symbols on the wall were left by mutant humans?

"Where do you think this tunnel will lead?"

"I don’t know, but based on experience... There are only some special shelters that need to be hidden under the flower bed."

Lu Yang thought for a moment and quickly made a decision.

"Let’s check it out."
