This Game Is Too Realistic-Chapter 259.3: Engineer from the Enterprise
Chapter 259.3: Engineer from the Enterprise
Bionic organs were too expensive.
It was fine if it was just to replace eyes, hands, or feet, but if it was to replace everything from blood vessels to their skin, probably not many rich people in Ideal City could afford it.
Many things were non-renewable resources, just like nuclear fusion. There was more than one dimension difference between being able to use something and being able to produce it.
Hyrja shook her head. "His immune system has been completely replaced by Slime Mold. Strictly speaking, it's not that he accepted those Slime Molds, but those Slime Molds allowed him to keep his brain and control the body that has mutated. Rather than replacing the bionic organs, I actually recommend a direct body replacement...... How about putting his head into a culture jar first?"
Bucky clutched his head in pain. "You might as well just kill me..."
Hyrja's eyes lit up when she heard this sentence, but just when she was about to say something provocative, Chu Guang, who could see through her thoughts, coughed lightly, interrupting the crazy woman who was about to speak. "I don't think replacing your body with a mechanical one would improve your situation. Anyway, you can live here for now. You don't have anywhere else to go in this condition."
After a pause, Chu Guang continued. "By the way, you just talked about your graduation trip... What was your major?"
Bucky replied, "Materials engineering."
Chu Guang was pleasantly surprised: "Materials engineering? What do you study specifically?"
A slightly awkward expression appeared on Bucky’s face. "Carbon nanometers... But you should not place too much hope on my professional ability. I may know more about wine and food."
His diploma was a fudge.
This kind of thing was not uncommon in Ideal City, especially for someone like him who had no intention of engaging in this industry at all, and there was no need to worry about exposure while studying.
Bucky originally planned to go back after the trip to inherit his father's wine business and open up markets outside the Among Clouds Province. However... There was no need to mention going back. He didn't even dare to let his father know the state he was in.
He was sure that his father would not spend unreasonable money to replace his body with a mechanical prosthetic body that cannot reproduce, but would choose to have another child without hesitation.
"It doesn't matter. Every job begins from the start. What you lack is just a little experience, and it just happened that I can give you that." Chu Guang patted him on the shoulder excitedly, "As for the wine, don't worry. Not only do we have wine, but there are also many more interesting things here... By the way, can you still drink after becoming like this?"
"Of course, my sense of taste is still normal..." Bucky asked in a low voice anxiously, "But what kind of task are you planning to assign me to?"
Chu Guang didn't answer right away. He stretched out his hand and pressed on the VM. Soon, there were footsteps outside the door, and Yin Fang walked in.
"What can I do for you? I'm very busy." Yin Fang stood at the door with an obviously impatient expression on his face.
Recently, the players recovered a lot of valuable information from the ruins, and he had been analyzing the valuable clues in those materials.

When he was busy, he would even have meals in the laboratory. He probably hadn't showered for a while. Not only was his hair messy, but he hadn't even shaved his stubble.
But Chu Guang didn't care about these. "Let me introduce you to a new colleague. This is Bucky. Although...he looks a little scary, he's a nice guy."
Yin Fang stared at Bucky for a while. "Are you a Creeper?"
There was a bitter look on Bucky's face. "It was an accident, do I... Do I really look like a Creeper?"
Yin Fang nodded with a strange expression. "A little bit."
Looking at the depressed Bucky, Chu Guang coughed lightly, "Don't judge people by their appearance... Bucky, this is a D-level prospector from Academy. Haven't you been looking for the people from the Academy? He is from the Academy, although it is a thing of the past."
"Hello, Mr. Bucky," Yin Fang stretched out his right hand, the bionic prosthesis produced in the Academy, politely, "what's your specialty?"
"Winemaking and... Well, I know a little about materials," Bucky slowly raised his heavy steel arm, tried his best to shake hands with Yin Fang, and added cautiously, "But just a little bit.”
Yin Fang's eyes lit up. "Materials? Great!"
Chu Guang looked at him. "Oh? You made a new discovery?"
"Of course! It's part of the information about the Central Continent Aerospace Ecological Experimental Base. Some information about aerospace equipment needs to be recovered, and I just happened to be in need of an expert in materials science. This will greatly speed up my work." Yin Fang looked at Bucky happily, "Can I trust your professional ability?"
Bucky actually wanted to say no, because he didn't even believe in himself, but the expectant look he was getting made him unable to say anything.
Since he became a mutant, everyone he met wanted him to go away, as far away as possible.
It was the first time that someone actually ignored his appearance and said that he needed his help...
Nodding, Bucky said cautiously, "While I would say brewing and trading are more suitable for me, but... I can give it a try."
"Great!" Chu Guang happily patted him on the shoulder. "Don't worry, you will have a lot of time. In addition to work, of course, you can also try things you are interested in. At the same time, we will do our best to find a way to help you return to your original state."
Bucky smiled wryly. "Thank you."
Originally, he planned to use Shelter 404 as the starting point of his journey.
But now it seemed that his graduation trip had ended early...
Academy, Enterprise, Army, and the old mad female scientist of a shelter... The NPC lineup of Shelter 404 was getting bigger and bigger.
Just when Chu Guang settled his friend from afar, the 10 Iron Horse 60 portable steam engines bought from Boulder Town were finally sent to the industrial area of the outpost.
8 of them were sent to Steel Plant 81, and two were sent to Goblin Technology.
According to the mission received, Steel Plant 81 needed to convert 4 of them into large tractors capable of delivering 60 horsepower within 2 weeks, and complete a trailed four-row subsoiler for it.
In addition, there were irrigation canals on the north bank of Linghu Lake, and the mechanized mills needed by the granary, which would support both of them respectively.
Looking at the compact and well-designed equipment in front of him, Lone Wolf, who happened to be helping Steel Plant 81, showed a surprised expression on his face. "Is this a portable steam engine?"
Bathroom Goer and Athlete Foot looked at each other and then looked at him suspiciously. "Any problems?"
Lone Wolf shook his head. "Nothing... Just thought it was rare."
The portable steam engine would need to consume a lot of wood. It had been basically eliminated in the 1970s, and only a few rural and remote areas were using it.
In his memory, most common steam engines produced 8 to 12 horsepower, and few produced more than 20 horsepower, let alone 60 horsepower. This kind of monster was comparable to the fuel engine.
But...
That made it more like a post-apocalyptic world.
“This probably consumes a lot of wood.”
Athlete Foot smiled and said, "It's okay. The thing we don’t lack the most is wood here. It is everywhere from inside the city to the outside of the city. When we opened up the wasteland, we cut down a bunch of them, and we just used a little of them so far!"
Bathroom Goer chimed in, "That's right! But we've also been working on internal combustion engines lately."
Lone Wolf gasped suddenly, "There is oil here?"
Athlete Foot continued, "On the official website, it says that there is a crop that can produce oil."
Bathroom Goer grinned. "That's right! Although we don't grow any, the administrator said that he can borrow some from our neighbor for us!"
Borrow...
Lone Wolf looked at the portable steam engine with his eyes glowing. "Can I take it apart and study it?"
Athlete Foot said cheerfully, "Of course! Originally, we also planned to take it apart and study the structure inside."
"That's right!" Bathroom Goer nodded excitedly, "The administrator said it can be disassembled, as long as we can put it back on!"
There was a hint of excitement in Lone Wolf's eyes.
He was very curious as to how realistic this epoch-making MMORPG could be.
