This Game Is Too Realistic

Late at night.

Light snow began to fall in the sky.

On the wall of Longevity Town.

Lu Bei, who was wearing a black coat, looked north, tightened the sling of his rifle, and stretched the soles of his numb feet to circulate his frozen blood.

Today was the last day of the 211th year of the Wasteland Era.

The outpost 10 kilometers away seemed to be celebrating the arrival of the New Year, but that had little to do with them being on duty.

A threat from the north was approaching, and he was standing on the frontlines.

Standing there, they couldn’t relax for a moment.

Carrying the lamp and walking up to the wall, the slightly aged guard patted Lu Bei on the shoulder and asked with a smile, "Young man, are you alright? If you are tired, I can take over. It’s almost time for the shift as well."

"Hehe, it seems that I came a little early," the old man smiled and put the lamp on the wall, "Then I will stand here with you for a while."

The older guard’s name was Auspicious. He was the oldest in the entire guard, and it was said that he would turn 40 next year.

People would always call him an old man kindly. Although he always argued that 40 years old was not old, recently his arthritis had become more and more serious, and he gradually began to feel he was really getting there.

Lu Bei had heard his story. It was said that he used to be a city man from Boulder Town, then became a mercenary, and then somehow became a prisoner of Bloodhand Clan and was taken into their dungeon.

He had a scar on his chest, which was said to be left by a Deathclaw, but no one believed it and thought he was bragging.

After all, if he could escape from a Deathclaw’s mouth, how could he be captured by the Bloodhand Clan’s marauders?

Every time the old man talked about his experience, he would argue very excitedly, describing how dangerous the situation was at that time, and he was only caught in order to cover the retreat of his teammates.

And every time he mentioned his teammates, someone would always ask, “So where are your teammates now? The people of the Bloodhand Clan are already burnt into ashes, so when are they going to come to pick you up.”

Whenever the old man was asked about this, he would fall silent for a while and then mutter that he didn’t plan to go back with his teammates even if they came, and it would be better if they didn’t come.

Anyway, his story later became an interesting topic amongst the guards.

Although no one believed that he had seen a Deathclaw (excluding the one kept by the administrator), Lu Bei did.

After all, the scar did not look like it was cut by a knife.

At this moment, an excited shout came from the direction of the stairs, and then a young man ran up. "There’s a car coming from the south. The administrator has brought us food!"

His name was Xu Shun, and he was one year older than Lu Bei. He was also barely of age and was Lu Bei’s best buddy.

"What food?" Lu Bei asked excitedly.

It was not because he’s a foodie, it was mainly because the food made by the blue coats was really delicious. Immediately, a dazzling variety of food flashed across his mind, including a lot of steamed buns, steamed dumplings, and ramen noodles.

Xu Shun said excitedly, "Gnocchi soup! And meat! I’ve tasted it, it was a little spicy, but after drinking it, my whole body became warm."

Lu Bei couldn’t help but swallow upon hearing what it was.

Looking at this drooling young man, Auspicious smiled and patted his shoulder. "Go, now it’s time to change shift."

"Mhm!" Lu Bei nodded excitedly, "I’ll bring you some later!"

The old man waved his hand. "Don’t worry, I’ll get my share after I finish my shift."

The two young men then quickly got off the city wall. Seeing their backs disappear in his sight, Auspicious smiled and then returned to look at the vast white snow outside the wall.

The snow this year is really heavy.

The coming year should be a good year.

He planned to save some money to buy a piece of land, try to grow some things, and then marry a wife. And when he retired from the guards, he would settle down here and settle down.

As for Boulder Town, he had no plans to go back.

Life here was not much better than there, but it was only here that he felt a dignity he had never had before.

The administrator said that they would never have to kneel to anyone again in the future.

And no one would be able to take away their freedom from their hands again.

The whistling north wind was freezing, but it was no longer blown with snowflakes. The bright moonlight shone from behind the scattered clouds, and the small animals that sneaked out for food quickly returned to their caves.

Auspicious spat out a mouthful of cold breath, and suddenly felt a little cold, so he stretched out his hand to the oil lamp on the wall, trying to put his hand on it to keep warm.

Accidentally, his hand trembled, knocking off the oil lamp.

The lamp fell into the snowdrift, but it didn’t break, but the fire went out.

“Shit!” Auspicious cursed and did not plan to pick it up immediately. He wanted to wait until his shift was over before going down to pick it up.

But at this moment, the expression on his face suddenly changed. He immediately grabbed the binoculars and glanced in the north direction.

Over the moonlit snow, he saw vague figures speeding in their direction through the darkness.

Many pairs of fierce eyes shot at him like sharp arrows.

The killing intent was so palpable that he could even sense it from afar.

They were exactly the same as marauders from the Bloodhand Clan!

Auspicious’s expression changed drastically, and without saying a word, he immediately grabbed the short whistle hanging around his neck, stuffed it into his mouth and blew it with all his strength, and fired a shot outside simultaneously.

"Enemy attack!"

...n/ô/vel/b//in dot c//om

"Hum hum..."

"The hammer of order beat the war drum."

"The iron belief broke ground."

"The white bear knight rushed out."

"Capturing the evil and the savage."

"..."

The truck’s engine rumbled.

Sitting on the front passenger seat, and resting her arm on the window, Tail hummed a song that she heard from somewhere and enjoyed the cool wind blowing outside the window.

Sisi, who was driving, glanced at her. "What kind of children’s song is this?"

Tail was dissatisfied. "What do you mean children’s song? It’s called BGM!"

I really envy this woman’s energy. How is she not tired at all?

Is it because she is going to awaken her ability soon?

Sisi sighed, "Okay, okay."

On the cargo bed of the pickup truck.

The two pairs of eyes, one big and one small, stared at each other.

Finally, Brother Ratman couldn’t hold on any longer and said with a dry cough. "Can you stop looking at me like that? You are making me very nervous."

Sesame Paste, who was hugging her knees, was stunned for a moment, and her warm hat fell off again. She quickly reached out and picked it up.

"Eh? Sorry, I’m just curious... What is it like to be a rat?"

How many people have asked me this question?

Make Me sighed helplessly, "How should I put it? It’s a bit troublesome to say hello to friends because you have to raise your head as high as possible. But it’s very convenient to travel through the ruins, and you won’t be beaten by a group of rats if you accidentally get into a rat’s nest. You just need to retreat slowly."

"In terms of other benefits, my fingers aren’t uncoordinated like other mutants, so there is no problem for me when using tools, and there is no debuff with slow growth in experience. Generally speaking, it is a sequence with unlimited potential."

Sesame Paste nodded in understanding.

That was if they were speaking about practicality.

"I thought it would be sad to become a mutant."

The big rat lying with its belly up gave her a strange look. "What’s so sad about that?"

"Because... It doesn’t look good?"

"..."

God damn it!

Originally, I didn’t feel sad, but my heart is bleeding now!

The poor Make Me couldn’t help cursing silently.

We are all fluffy animals. So why is the rat worse than the cat?

Damn humans!

Die! Die! Die!

...

The truck finally arrived.

The two guards on the cargo bed jumped down first and beckoned everyone in the camp to come and pick up the food.

The guards were more experienced than the refugees. They had seen a lizard and a bear before, so they no longer felt strange when seeing a one-meter-tall big rat standing up on the back of the pickup truck.

Make Me stretched and was about to slip out of the truck for a short walk, but then a harsh whistle suddenly came from the front.

Immediately afterward, gunshots and explosions sounded, startling Sesame Paste who was about to jump out of the cargo bed, causing the hat she had just put on to fall off again.

"What, what happened?!"

"I don’t know..."

The big rat swallowed.

The sound of gunfire in the north was loud, like firecrackers, accompanied by the explosion from time to time.

There was chaos in the camp, and the two guards who had just come down from the wall probably went to the north gate for reinforcements again.

Standing next to the pickup truck, Sisi raised her head and looked north, and frowned. "Gunshots, at least 50... no, maybe 100?"

Maybe more?

She couldn’t tell the difference between the gunshots of the guards and those of the attackers.

The big mouse said nervously. "Why is there such a big range in your estimate!?"

"After all, the sound of gunfire in this game is not as regular as PUBG... Tail, what do you think?" While speaking, Sisi looked aside.

However, what she saw was that Tail had raised her Sickle assault rifle, and her eyes flashed with excitement.

"Si! Let’s go!"

Just from her look alone, Sisi knew what she wanted to do.

Sisi fell into a daze for a moment, then a smile appeared on her face, and she gave a thumbs up energetically.

"Oh!"

"Looks like Tail’s chance to show off her skills has finally come!"

This time, they didn’t want to get the lowest scores.

Seeing the two running towards the north, the cat and rat were dumbfounded.

"What, what do we do now?" Sesame Paste looked at the rat next to her at a loss, but the poor brother Make Me was also confused at the moment, not knowing what to do.

He also went to the front line once.

But that was following Mosquito, and he was just observing he whole time.

"Uh… Anyway, I’ll go and see if I can provide any help first."

Damn it!

Wasn’t it supposed to be an errand mission?

The mission briefing also didn’t say anything about fighting!

Otherwise, I would’ve brought my weapon as well.

Make Me bit the bullet and went to chase Tail and Sisi, leaving only Sesame Paste beside the pickup truck.

"Hey! Wait, don’t leave yet..."

However, it was too late.

When she called out, the big rat had already disappeared.

Sesame Paste was dumbfounded, looking around anxiously, not knowing what to do.

But when her eyes fell on the house closest to the south gate in the town, her face instantly lit up.

That was the save point!

As a player who was often doing errand missions, she still remembered that there were 100 clone nurturing cabins there, and players who were too lazy to go back to the outpost would often go offline there!

"Anyway… I have to find a way to notify others first." Sesame Paste ran over to the house immediately as she thought of this. She rushed through the door, found an open clone nuruting cabin, and lay in it.

As the hatch was closed, the connection was broken.

After getting offline at the speed of light, she immediately took off her helmet and opened her laptop. She went to the official website forum, quickly edited a post, and sent it out.

"Everyone! Help! Longevity Town is being attacked."

Just a few seconds after the post was posted, it immediately caught everyone’s attention.

"Attacked?"

"What the heck, what’s the situation?"

"Aren’t you having a celebration?"

"Damn it! The developers are secretly releasing a hidden mission while I’m not online!"

Almost at the same time that the post was posted, a line of announcements suddenly popped up on the official website.

[Server Announcement: The marauders from the north attacked Longevity Town, triggering an emergency mission.]

[Dawn: A group of bloody-thirsty robbers just launched a shameful sneak attack while we were celebrating the New Year! We’ll make them regret what they did!]

[Failure condition: Resurrection point is destroyed. (All players whose characters are located in Longevity Town will enter the resurrection cooldown state)]

[Victory Condition: Repel the attackers!]

As soon as the announcement came out, the forum instantly exploded with discussions.

"What the fuck?!"

"A sneak attack?!"

"Are you serious?! You can even be killed even if you go offline?!"

"The shameless developers finally decided to wipe out some people’s data, right?"

"Brothers! Hurry up! Let’s get all our weapons and defend our save point!"

"Damn those marauders, they want to drop my legendary gear?!"
