MMP... Finally got out of here!
He was panting heavily, and the construction site boy wiped the sand and sweat from his face with the bricks. Looking at the mountains in front of him, joy couldn't help but rush to his eyebrows.
Not just him.
The players of the Death Corps couldn't help but cheer when they saw the desert border.
The three wheels that were pedaled all the way were almost upgraded, and they could see the mountains in the river valley province.
If they hadn't felt sorry for the little experience and the hard-earned equipment on their own, they would have used the TP to return to the city!
Kakarot couldn't help but complain.
Damn, it’s still so fucking Brother Mole, and he took on a big job just after he came back from vacation in Ideal City.
The debt-loving eyes sitting on the three rounds nodded deeply.
But that's 900 kilometers Ah... How did he plan to go over?
The boy on the construction site interjected and complained.
Who knows, we who ride tricycles are worried about others driving?
Hearing the sarcastic spirit of his teammates, he smiled embarrassedly on the edge and patted his mount on the shoulder.
Hehe... I'm sorry, brother, I've made you wronged.
The boy on the construction site rolled his eyes with the brick.
You know, I'm sorry!
It’s a genius to scold the group leader and not be a human being.
Most people are actually not that scrupulous. The conditions at the moment when they first opened the server were much more than they are now.
At least there are tricycles now.
At that time, even bicycles were treasured like giant pandas. Even players of T0 and T1 often used two legs to run the picture.
No matter what, although there were many bumps along the way, they still broke through the encirclement net of the army and completed this miracle of rushing and transferring thousands of miles.
Everyone's faces were filled with joy.
Even the captured Piman and Antonitt.
The two of them were tied into rice dumplings and threw them on the tricycle, and they were almost roasted by the sun to dry them.
No matter how these people plan to deal with themselves, the torture of wind and sun is over.
The map of this game is really big... The debt-in-responsible eye raised the telescope and looked to the north. It still couldn't see the edge of the map, as if this game did not have such a setting.
This is probably the first time that the league players have set foot in the northern border of the River Valley Province.
Although this place is also a plain belt, the plain here feels completely different from the south.
Here you can't see the green forests and grasslands all over the mountains, instead they are bare yellow land and sea buckthorn grass swaying on the edge of the Gobi Desert.
There are forests in the distance, but straight pine trees are bare, and there is no leaf on the branches, and the whole vegetation is withering.
A Tianshui seems to divide the entire province into two completely different worlds.
If the modeling in Qingquan City is a gray-green tone, then here is more like a pot of yellow paint splashed.
More than that.
The alien species wandering nearby were even more ugly. The mutant hunting dog with thick hair in the south had only a few sparse hairs left on its forehead.
However, in contrast, the aliens here are obviously stronger in physiques. Not only are their bones bigger, but their knotted muscles even squeezed onto their faces.
But it may be that the distorted muscles compress their eyeballs, causing their eyes to be ineffective and provoke people they shouldn't be messed with.
More than 30 mutant hunting dogs surrounded them and bared their teeth and let out a fierce roar.
Sitting on the edge of the construction siteman, he didn't panic at all. He held the machine gun and swept over, and the mutant hunting dog that rushed up died instantly.
The remaining half was easily solved by several players who got off the car with engineer shovels and bayonets without any delay.
The intensity is slightly higher than that of mutant hyena and gnawingers... it should be about five or six levels.
He swung the blood on the shovel at the edge, and suddenly noticed that there was still movement in the distance, so he gave his teammates beside him a look, put down the shovel and picked up the rifle hanging on his chest again.
The four of them leaned over carefully, but saw a human-shaped monster squatting on the ground with their backs facing them, and their hands covered in mud were constantly digging on the ground.
Its body is thin, its skin is sickly gray, and its wrinkled skin is covered with pus and sores, like a corpse soaked in a lake, as if it was searching for something in the soil.
Finally, it seemed to have found it, excitedly pulled something out of the soil, then stuffed it into its mouth, and feasted greedily, accompanied by a creaking sound.
The edge paddling exchanged glances with the construction site boy with the brick, his face a little confused, not sure what it was.
As if he had noticed the movement behind him, the monster stopped his hand, glanced at the four people alertly, began to retreat to the side, and then ran into the nearby forest with both hands and feet.
The debt-loss eyes raised the rifle and aimed it behind it, but in the end, it did not waste the bullet and pressed the muzzle down.
...What's that thing?
I'm even more curious about what he's eating...
The boy on the construction site and the brick walked forward curiously, but soon saw half of his head buried in the soil.
His face suddenly turned blue and white, and he stopped talking with a dry retching.
The navy blue... It was a military uniform. The edge was paddling. In the morning, I took the engineer shovel and pulled it on the ground twice, frowned slightly. It was a member of the army.
And it is most likely that it is the chief of the Twins!
In an instant, the edge paddling suddenly seemed to understand something, and glanced at the bumpy and muddy wilderness around.
This should have been a battlefield before!
It was here that the Legion's expeditionary forces fought against the army in the Great Rift Valley.
And the endless ups and downs and deep pits on the plain might have been plowed out by artillery fire...
Although I was curious about the alien species I had never seen before, no player chased after it.
The forest that does not grow leaves is always cautious, and I don’t know what strange things are hidden inside.
They still have a task, so it is best not to cause trouble.
The group continued to move forward and soon met a large survivor settlement.
When the players saw people in the faces, they all showed joy.
Their supplies were almost exhausted along the way, and they could finally replenish them.
As he signaled the large army to wait in the distance, he asked with several familiar teammates on the edge, stopping a scavenger.
What is this place?
The scavenger glanced at the exoskeleton on his body, then at his rifle, and said alertly.
There is no name here, we all call this recycling bin.
Recycle bin?Debt big eyes inserted their mouths and asked curiously.
Yes, have you seen the plain in the distance?The man pointed to the muddy land in the distance, which was beyond the reach of the trenches dug by the Legion Expeditionary Force. Later, they were beaten and abandoned their armor, and died and fled... all the equipment was thrown there.
The edge paddling looked in the direction he pointed, and vaguely saw two trenches in the crater stage.
Are you here to pick up the scattered?
That's right, the man glanced at the camp behind him and said in a vague voice, "Everyone is here to pick up garbage, some pick up garbage, some collect garbage, and some sell shovels... Although the Legion did nothing good, their bodies support a lot of people."
The edge nodded.
It seems that this is not a fixed camp, but a nomad group composed of scavengers.
Maybe when the nearby garbage was dug up, the scavengers moved away one after another, and the camp was moved to other places.
As for who is collecting these garbage, there is no need to think about it. It is undoubtedly from the Bugra Free State.
Can we replenish supplies here?
why not?You can just go to the camp to find those traders. They are willing to sell everything as long as you are willing to pay.But... it's better not to cause trouble unless you plan to be enemies with everyone here.
The scavenger vaguely reminded him, and did not continue to waste time, picked up the sack and walked into the mud.
Debt eyes are looking at the edge of the water.
How to say it?
The edge paddled for a moment and quickly made a judgment.
Replenish supplies and then continue on the road.
Why not camp here?The construction siteman asked curiously.
The captives have special identities, and they are all people who trade with the Bugra Free State, so it is hard to guarantee that they do not have their own eyes.
The edge paddled and glanced at the back of the scavenger and moved his chin.
Let's go.
After replenishing supplies, we have to get on the road as soon as possible.
……
The exoskeleton was replaced.
The edge paddled with big eyes and the landlords into the camp called the recycling bin.
Although it looks dilapidated from the outside, the camp is very lively.
The merchants holding two-headed cows set up stalls on both sides of the road, selling not only rags such as bottles, jars, and occasionally seeing some unusual high-tech.
It includes security robots with iron pipe rifles welded, including bionic coolies modified with picked up garbage and intelligent cores.
Some people even hawk power armor.
However, when I walked upstairs and looked at it, I found that except for a fuel rod that was almost exhausted, there was no place on the body that could touch the power armor.
The construction site boy and brick curiously approached and took a look at the label. Seeing that they were actually worth 600,000 Cr, they immediately widened their eyes.
Damn it!Grab money!
If you remember correctly, the current exchange rate between Cr and silver coins is 1:3, which is 1.8 million silver coins!
The merchant who was selling things glanced at him and saw that he looked unsightly and poor, so he was too lazy to pay attention to him.
We are not here to buy equipment.The edge patted the siteman on the shoulder and pulled him back.
Most of the equipment here is DIYed by scavengers, and the failure rate is probably quite touching.
He didn't even have the interest in bargaining.
By the way, how much does the power armor Lao Bai bought cost?Debt Big Eye suddenly asked.
The edge paddling thought about it and said.
I remember... it was 1 million silver coins?
When the players heard that there was only 1 million silver coins, they felt a little emotional.
It's true that the manager's conscience is still.
These wasteland tourists are really not ordinary cunning!
After walking around the market, they finally found a businessman selling grain.
The old man who sells goods is not young, about forty years old. He looks like a person from Luoxia. No matter what color the skin is, the people there are very dark eye sockets.
What surprised many players was that this merchant actually checked cash coins!
According to the old man, he happened to go to the south for the next trip, so he wanted both dinar and silver coins.
4,000 kilograms of dry bread, 300 kilograms of jerky... I'll do it, well, I have to collect 10,000 silver coins from you.
When he heard the old man's offer, Big Eye couldn't help but complain.
Depend on!So expensive!
The construction siteman also swallowed.
Ten thousand silver coins... are enough to buy a set of light cavalry exoskeletons.
The edge paddling smiled without much care.
If you think about it from another perspective, it is already very cost-effective to use the price of a light cavalry exoskeleton to solve the supply of five hundred-man teams.
There is no one who doesn’t spend money when fighting.
No problem that can be solved with money is a problem, not to mention that the management will reimburse the logistics expenditure.
He took out the money from his pocket and counted 100 pieces, and handed it to the old man.
make a deal.
The old man smiled and took the money, greeted the young men beside him, helped him scale the supplies and packed them to the guests to send them outside the camp.
The edge paddling lets the landlords follow them, while he and Dayan stay in the camp.
When the construction site came back, the debt-in-law suddenly thought of the monster like a corpse I saw during the trip, so he looked at the old man and asked.
Have you ever seen a monster with skin like a zombie that is soaked in water.
The water is soaked?Living zombies?The old man thought for a while, and a smile suddenly appeared on his wrinkled face.
What you encounter should be a ghoul.
The debt-loss eyes were stunned.
Ghoul?
Well, there is a nuclear bomb crater that stretches hundreds of kilometers west of the Great Rift Valley, probably from which it crawled out.They generally do not eat living things, but do not avoid eating dead things, and regard plague and rot as delicious food.
After dusting the ashes from the pipe, the old man who was selling goods narrowed his eyes and looked at the people picking up the scavengers in the distance, held the cigarette holder and took a sip.
...No need to worry about those guys, they are just a bunch of talented people.
……
On the other side, in the distant southern part of Luoxia Province, under the Double Head Peak of the Zhuobar Mountains.
With the help of those who are interested, the news that the legion troops were at the city soon spread in Petra Fortress.
However, what everyone expected was that the news went away as it spread and became more outrageous...
It's another dusk.
Lao Buma handed the account book to Sis, hesitated for a moment, and finally couldn't help but speak.
Miss…Petra Fortress can no longer stay, so you'd better go to the pier to buy a boat, so you can still buy it now.
Looking at Buma with a sad face, Sis was stunned for a moment, and his expression could not help but be a little strange.
Didn’t you say… it is impossible for Petra Fortress to fall?
If I remember correctly, she should have heard this sentence three days ago.
That's right. The fortress built by the gods cannot be captured by mortals. If the legion came, no matter how many people they came, the Fortress Petra would make them unable to eat...
Lao Buma still had a confident expression on his face, but as he spoke, his voice became guilty.
...But if the evil god comes, it is hard to say anything.
Evil god?!Tail opened his eyes wide in surprise, watched the fun without hesitation and asked excitedly, "What does he look like?"
With thousands of ugliness in one, no one knows where he comes from, it may be the sky or the deep sea. When he descended, his body filled the entire river bank, and tens of thousands of tentacles tear open the clouds in the sky. Even the God of the Sky is not his opponent...
The eyes shine with their tail.
oh!Extra large tentacles!
Lao Buma's pupils were covered with a layer of turbidity, trying to describe something he had never seen before in words.
But at present, it seems that only Tail dares to believe it, and even Rou Rou shook his head when he heard it.
...The legion chose it in such a large desert. There is no doubt that they knew that they could not defeat us with their own strength, so they planned to use evil sacrifices to awaken the demons suppressed by the Sky Scepter.
This desert is over... The dusk of the gods will come again, and this time, there is no god who can stop him.
The old man was mumbling in his mouth, his muddy pupils were filled with despair, and the low voice became smaller and smaller until he could not hear clearly and merged into the distant dimness outside the window.
Holding the snoring cat in his arms, Sesame paste quietly looked at Sis on the side and asked in a low voice.
Is this part of the plan?
Sce, who was in deep thought, shook his head.
I just asked the mercenary to spread the news about the Lost Valley where the legion was stationed, but I didn't expect that the people here... were so enigmatic.
The legion stationed in the Lost Valley is holding an evil ceremony, trying to awaken the evil god who has been sleeping for 200 years, and use the power of the demon to conquer the insurmountable Petra...
The plan exceeded expectations, and even a determined believer like Lao Buma began to shake.
Looking at the old face full of sorrow, Sis couldn't help but feel a little worried.
Will you be too hard...
And just as she was worried, there was a loud knock at the door.
The sesame paste standing next to the door heard it and walked up to open the door.
Sorry, my business has been closed today
As soon as she was halfway through her words, she was stunned on the spot when she saw the person at the door clearly.
I saw a group of guards with guns and live ammunition standing at the door, with about thirty.
They had submachine guns on their waists and were already in their hands.
The man in charge was the captain of the nearby patrol team.
Old Buma recognized the face at a glance and hurriedly stepped forward and said with a smile.
Captain Seandis?What instructions do you have?
Ignoring the old man, Seandis looked around the people in the room with a blank expression, including the talking bear.
Who is the boss here?
Ruo hesitated and was about to raise her hand, but the tail next to her was one step faster than her
However, before his tail's arm was lifted, Sce, who was standing aside, pressed back.
‘Leave it to me’
Giving Tai a reassuring look, Sis walked to the sesame paste.
She glanced at the already controlled mercenary and said calmly at the captain of the patrol.
It's me.
Seeing that she had no intention of violently resisting arrest, the patrol captain did not talk nonsense and waved.
Come with us.
……
The castle shrouded in twilight.
The palace of the lord of Petra Fortress was filled with anxious ministers.
The man in luxurious clothes sat on a stone chair, looking down at the people under the steps with expressionless faces.
His right elbow was holding a cold handrail, and his index finger on his left hand was knocking on the handrail, which seemed to be in deep thought and pure impatience.
His name is Sain, and he is the lord of the Petra Fortress here. His family is a famous family in the Camel Kingdom, guarding the northern border of the kingdom for generations.
The Camel Kingdom declared war on the Falcon Kingdom a long time ago, but it has not sent troops for a long time.
Although many people think this is the weakness of the royal family, he knows that it is not the case.
No one in this kingdom is more pious and braver than His Majesty.
How could that respected adult not know that the consequences of appeasement can only lead to gaining a better position.
In fact, the royal family has always been determined to assemble troops to go north to rescue, but the city lords, including the Silver Moon City Lord, only want to pay money, not people.
These profit-oriented businessmen are still counting on smashing the legion to death with their money bags.
This is not a problem that money can solve at all.
Of course Sain was on the side of the king.
The reason why Petra Fortress and his family survived to this day is due to the blessing of the royal family.
They ate the food transported from the oasis and drank the water from the oasis. They were the most loyal garrison states, which were essentially different from those city-states where nobles and merchants relied on corruption.
However, it is not enough to rely on him alone.
This kingdom corrupted by money is everywhere, and there are very few brave people.
This is true both in His Majesty the King's court and in his court...
...We should negotiate with the Legion, sit down and talk about problems that cannot be solved.
The lion royal family is too rude. If they hadn't taken in the children of the Honey Badger royal family, they wouldn't have been targeted by the Falcon Kingdom!
Actually, I think... it's not bad like the Falcon Kingdom. The legion gave them a lot of aid. The reason why that oasis has not been abandoned has to be the legion's people help them.
There is nothing to say about this. Although the Willant people have a bad temper and are a little scary about slaves, they still have nothing to say about the vassals, giving whatever they lack.
No matter what, it's good, don't fight.The soil of Petra Fortress cannot produce food, and once the war affects trade, people will be hungry.
The ministers in the palace were talking a lot.
Including those nobles, wealthy businessmen and guests who do not have real power.
Someone proposed to negotiate with the Legion.
Some people also have a vague hint that the Falcon Kingdom seems to be good. Not only is the Falcon Royal Family sitting on the throne well, but its national strength has also doubled compared to ten years ago.
Sain was very irritated when he heard this, but he couldn't get angry with these people. After all, Petra Fortress could not be separated from them.
He was about to wave his hand to drive the people away, but at this moment, footsteps came from the door of the hall.
The thick wooden door opens.
The captain of the guard stood in front of the door and saluted.
Sir, I brought that person.
The ministers and nobles in the hall stopped talking and looked at the door curiously.
Sain waved his hand and signaled him to bring the person up.
The guard captain bowed and took the order and walked out the door neatly.
Before he could wait, he brought a woman from an alien race.
Seeing this scene, everyone in the hall started to whisper, wondering what the city lord was planning to do.
Ignore the noisy sound.
Seine, sitting on the stone chair, stared at the woman under the steps and looked at her twice.
Do you know why I called you?
Knowing that it is useless to pretend to be crazy and stupid, Sce simply nodded and admitted.
Know.
Seeing the expression on his face without changing color, a hint of admiration rose in Sai'an's eyes.
Those cowards who wished to kneel down to the legion should be ashamed of what they said, and no little girl had the courage.
but
Appreciate if you appreciate it.
Law is law.
Looking down at the man under the steps, his eyes were cold and he said with a smile.
In the Hump Kingdom, rumors that deceive the public will have their tongues cut off.
If you commit fraud under the name of God, you will be divided by sorrow and buried in yellow sand and exposed to the sun for ten days. Food and fresh water will not be given to the gods.
Giving to the suffering person can be exempted from three days of punishment, and you can choose the order of punishment.
Have you pleaded guilty?
The solemn and cold sound echoed in the empty hall.
Everyone's eyes focused on her, some of them wrote surprise, some of them were indeed the case, and some of them were expressionless.
Unexpectedly, the incident that was rumored in the city was actually caused by a little girl... It sounded a bit incredible.
However, looking at the city lord's expression, it doesn't seem like he is joking.
A look of interest gradually appeared in everyone's eyes.
Regardless of whether she was pushed to take the blame or not, they were curious about how this alien girl planned to answer.
Sis was silent and didn't say anything.
She knew that no matter whether she nodded or shook her head, the outcome would not be too good.
Having said that, does giving mean using golden camel coins to exchange for those scraps?
She didn't think that was a gift, at most it was a mutually beneficial and win-win deal.
However, the city lord's understanding of what happened in the city was so good that she was really surprised.
It seems that I still take it for granted that I underestimate the wisdom of NPC.
After finishing the matter, the mercenaries should have given them a sum of money immediately and asked them to leave here quickly.
The only thing that is thankful now is that I have not implicated the rest of the Knights.
The city lord seemed to look down on their little property, and might be disdainful of plundering in this way.
The calming thoughts in Sis' mind were turning rapidly, thinking about ways to break the deadlock.
Denying those rumors yourself?
This is a fact.
She really did not make up the part about the gods, and those exaggerated rumors were born out of rumors.
However, this kind of quibbling is obviously useless. The other party will not play word games with her at all. As long as the mercenary confesses guilty, it will make no sense to deny it yourself.
As for moving out of the league, it is even more undesirable.
If the Hump Kingdom had to treat itself as a spy directed by the Alliance, the result would probably be even worse.
Not to mention whether the manager's favorability will be lost, if this is a real operation, it will turn ordinary cases into diplomatic disputes. The Hump Kingdom, which is unwarranted, is originally swaying like a fence-between. If this happens, it may turn directly to the opposite side.
Their faith is not that firm...
Wait, faith!
In an instant, he seized the clue of breaking the deadlock, and Sis's eyes lit up slightly, and his boiling brain quickly cooled down.
Recalling what she had read in the two books, she sorted out her thoughts for a moment and looked up at the city lord sitting on the stone chair.
Dear City Lord, the rumors in the city are indeed related to me, but I do not think I am guilty.
Whispers spread in the hall.
The city lord narrowed his eyes slightly and changed to his left arm to support his chin.
oh?
Although this pale quibulation could not change her fate, he still wanted to hear what the man planned to say to relieve himself of his sins.
Those rumors did arise because of me, but that was not a rumor.
She raised her head.
She could feel the sights that fell on her, most of them were malicious, and the remaining half were mostly in the mood to watch the fun.
However, she was not timid.
She knew very well that once she showed timidity at this time, even if she showed a little hesitation, it would mean that all her previous efforts were wasted.
The calm expression did not change at all. She raised the volume, and her voice brought a hint of piety or righteousness.
That confidence comes from the fact that she said is not false.
More because
That is God's will.
He was panting heavily, and the construction site boy wiped the sand and sweat from his face with the bricks. Looking at the mountains in front of him, joy couldn't help but rush to his eyebrows.
Not just him.
The players of the Death Corps couldn't help but cheer when they saw the desert border.
The three wheels that were pedaled all the way were almost upgraded, and they could see the mountains in the river valley province.
If they hadn't felt sorry for the little experience and the hard-earned equipment on their own, they would have used the TP to return to the city!
Kakarot couldn't help but complain.
Damn, it’s still so fucking Brother Mole, and he took on a big job just after he came back from vacation in Ideal City.
The debt-loving eyes sitting on the three rounds nodded deeply.
But that's 900 kilometers Ah... How did he plan to go over?
The boy on the construction site interjected and complained.
Who knows, we who ride tricycles are worried about others driving?
Hearing the sarcastic spirit of his teammates, he smiled embarrassedly on the edge and patted his mount on the shoulder.
Hehe... I'm sorry, brother, I've made you wronged.
The boy on the construction site rolled his eyes with the brick.
You know, I'm sorry!
It’s a genius to scold the group leader and not be a human being.
Most people are actually not that scrupulous. The conditions at the moment when they first opened the server were much more than they are now.
At least there are tricycles now.
At that time, even bicycles were treasured like giant pandas. Even players of T0 and T1 often used two legs to run the picture.
No matter what, although there were many bumps along the way, they still broke through the encirclement net of the army and completed this miracle of rushing and transferring thousands of miles.
Everyone's faces were filled with joy.
Even the captured Piman and Antonitt.
The two of them were tied into rice dumplings and threw them on the tricycle, and they were almost roasted by the sun to dry them.
No matter how these people plan to deal with themselves, the torture of wind and sun is over.
The map of this game is really big... The debt-in-responsible eye raised the telescope and looked to the north. It still couldn't see the edge of the map, as if this game did not have such a setting.

Sitting on the edge of the construction siteman, he didn't panic at all. He held the machine gun and swept over, and the mutant hunting dog that rushed up died instantly.
The remaining half was easily solved by several players who got off the car with engineer shovels and bayonets without any delay.
The intensity is slightly higher than that of mutant hyena and gnawingers... it should be about five or six levels.
He swung the blood on the shovel at the edge, and suddenly noticed that there was still movement in the distance, so he gave his teammates beside him a look, put down the shovel and picked up the rifle hanging on his chest again.
The four of them leaned over carefully, but saw a human-shaped monster squatting on the ground with their backs facing them, and their hands covered in mud were constantly digging on the ground.
Its body is thin, its skin is sickly gray, and its wrinkled skin is covered with pus and sores, like a corpse soaked in a lake, as if it was searching for something in the soil.
Finally, it seemed to have found it, excitedly pulled something out of the soil, then stuffed it into its mouth, and feasted greedily, accompanied by a creaking sound.

why not?You can just go to the camp to find those traders. They are willing to sell everything as long as you are willing to pay.But... it's better not to cause trouble unless you plan to be enemies with everyone here.
The scavenger vaguely reminded him, and did not continue to waste time, picked up the sack and walked into the mud.
Debt eyes are looking at the edge of the water.
How to say it?
The edge paddled for a moment and quickly made a judgment.
Replenish supplies and then continue on the road.
Why not camp here?The construction siteman asked curiously.
The captives have special identities, and they are all people who trade with the Bugra Free State, so it is hard to guarantee that they do not have their own eyes.
The edge paddled and glanced at the back of the scavenger and moved his chin.
Let's go.
After replenishing supplies, we have to get on the road as soon as possible.
……
The exoskeleton was replaced.
The edge paddled with big eyes and the landlords into the camp called the recycling bin.
Although it looks dilapidated from the outside, the camp is very lively.
The merchants holding two-headed cows set up stalls on both sides of the road, selling not only rags such as bottles, jars, and occasionally seeing some unusual high-tech.
It includes security robots with iron pipe rifles welded, including bionic coolies modified with picked up garbage and intelligent cores.
Some people even hawk power armor.
However, when I walked upstairs and looked at it, I found that except for a fuel rod that was almost exhausted, there was no place on the body that could touch the power armor.
The construction site boy and brick curiously approached and took a look at the label. Seeing that they were actually worth 600,000 Cr, they immediately widened their eyes.
Damn it!Grab money!
If you remember correctly, the current exchange rate between Cr and silver coins is 1:3, which is 1.8 million silver coins!
The merchant who was selling things glanced at him and saw that he looked unsightly and poor, so he was too lazy to pay attention to him.
We are not here to buy equipment.The edge patted the siteman on the shoulder and pulled him back.
Most of the equipment here is DIYed by scavengers, and the failure rate is probably quite touching.
He didn't even have the interest in bargaining.
By the way, how much does the power armor Lao Bai bought cost?Debt Big Eye suddenly asked.
The edge paddling thought about it and said.
I remember... it was 1 million silver coins?
When the players heard that there was only 1 million silver coins, they felt a little emotional.
It's true that the manager's conscience is still.
These wasteland tourists are really not ordinary cunning!
After walking around the market, they finally found a businessman selling grain.
The old man who sells goods is not young, about forty years old. He looks like a person from Luoxia. No matter what color the skin is, the people there are very dark eye sockets.
What surprised many players was that this merchant actually checked cash coins!
According to the old man, he happened to go to the south for the next trip, so he wanted both dinar and silver coins.
4,000 kilograms of dry bread, 300 kilograms of jerky... I'll do it, well, I have to collect 10,000 silver coins from you.
When he heard the old man's offer, Big Eye couldn't help but complain.
Depend on!So expensive!
The construction siteman also swallowed.
Ten thousand silver coins... are enough to buy a set of light cavalry exoskeletons.
The edge paddling smiled without much care.
If you think about it from another perspective, it is already very cost-effective to use the price of a light cavalry exoskeleton to solve the supply of five hundred-man teams.
There is no one who doesn’t spend money when fighting.
No problem that can be solved with money is a problem, not to mention that the management will reimburse the logistics expenditure.
He took out the money from his pocket and counted 100 pieces, and handed it to the old man.
make a deal.
The old man smiled and took the money, greeted the young men beside him, helped him scale the supplies and packed them to the guests to send them outside the camp.
The edge paddling lets the landlords follow them, while he and Dayan stay in the camp.
When the construction site came back, the debt-in-law suddenly thought of the monster like a corpse I saw during the trip, so he looked at the old man and asked.
Have you ever seen a monster with skin like a zombie that is soaked in water.
The water is soaked?Living zombies?The old man thought for a while, and a smile suddenly appeared on his wrinkled face.
What you encounter should be a ghoul.
The debt-loss eyes were stunned.
Ghoul?
Well, there is a nuclear bomb crater that stretches hundreds of kilometers west of the Great Rift Valley, probably from which it crawled out.They generally do not eat living things, but do not avoid eating dead things, and regard plague and rot as delicious food.
After dusting the ashes from the pipe, the old man who was selling goods narrowed his eyes and looked at the people picking up the scavengers in the distance, held the cigarette holder and took a sip.
...No need to worry about those guys, they are just a bunch of talented people.
……
On the other side, in the distant southern part of Luoxia Province, under the Double Head Peak of the Zhuobar Mountains.
With the help of those who are interested, the news that the legion troops were at the city soon spread in Petra Fortress.
However, what everyone expected was that the news went away as it spread and became more outrageous...
It's another dusk.
Lao Buma handed the account book to Sis, hesitated for a moment, and finally couldn't help but speak.
Miss…Petra Fortress can no longer stay, so you'd better go to the pier to buy a boat, so you can still buy it now.
Looking at Buma with a sad face, Sis was stunned for a moment, and his expression could not help but be a little strange.
Didn’t you say… it is impossible for Petra Fortress to fall?
If I remember correctly, she should have heard this sentence three days ago.
That's right. The fortress built by the gods cannot be captured by mortals. If the legion came, no matter how many people they came, the Fortress Petra would make them unable to eat...
Lao Buma still had a confident expression on his face, but as he spoke, his voice became guilty.
...But if the evil god comes, it is hard to say anything.
Evil god?!Tail opened his eyes wide in surprise, watched the fun without hesitation and asked excitedly, "What does he look like?"
With thousands of ugliness in one, no one knows where he comes from, it may be the sky or the deep sea. When he descended, his body filled the entire river bank, and tens of thousands of tentacles tear open the clouds in the sky. Even the God of the Sky is not his opponent...
The eyes shine with their tail.
oh!Extra large tentacles!
Lao Buma's pupils were covered with a layer of turbidity, trying to describe something he had never seen before in words.
But at present, it seems that only Tail dares to believe it, and even Rou Rou shook his head when he heard it.
...The legion chose it in such a large desert. There is no doubt that they knew that they could not defeat us with their own strength, so they planned to use evil sacrifices to awaken the demons suppressed by the Sky Scepter.
This desert is over... The dusk of the gods will come again, and this time, there is no god who can stop him.
The old man was mumbling in his mouth, his muddy pupils were filled with despair, and the low voice became smaller and smaller until he could not hear clearly and merged into the distant dimness outside the window.
Holding the snoring cat in his arms, Sesame paste quietly looked at Sis on the side and asked in a low voice.
Is this part of the plan?
Sce, who was in deep thought, shook his head.
I just asked the mercenary to spread the news about the Lost Valley where the legion was stationed, but I didn't expect that the people here... were so enigmatic.
The legion stationed in the Lost Valley is holding an evil ceremony, trying to awaken the evil god who has been sleeping for 200 years, and use the power of the demon to conquer the insurmountable Petra...
The plan exceeded expectations, and even a determined believer like Lao Buma began to shake.
Looking at the old face full of sorrow, Sis couldn't help but feel a little worried.
Will you be too hard...
And just as she was worried, there was a loud knock at the door.
The sesame paste standing next to the door heard it and walked up to open the door.
Sorry, my business has been closed today
As soon as she was halfway through her words, she was stunned on the spot when she saw the person at the door clearly.
I saw a group of guards with guns and live ammunition standing at the door, with about thirty.
They had submachine guns on their waists and were already in their hands.
The man in charge was the captain of the nearby patrol team.
Old Buma recognized the face at a glance and hurriedly stepped forward and said with a smile.
Captain Seandis?What instructions do you have?
Ignoring the old man, Seandis looked around the people in the room with a blank expression, including the talking bear.
Who is the boss here?
Ruo hesitated and was about to raise her hand, but the tail next to her was one step faster than her
However, before his tail's arm was lifted, Sce, who was standing aside, pressed back.
‘Leave it to me’
Giving Tai a reassuring look, Sis walked to the sesame paste.
She glanced at the already controlled mercenary and said calmly at the captain of the patrol.
It's me.
Seeing that she had no intention of violently resisting arrest, the patrol captain did not talk nonsense and waved.
Come with us.
……
The castle shrouded in twilight.
The palace of the lord of Petra Fortress was filled with anxious ministers.
The man in luxurious clothes sat on a stone chair, looking down at the people under the steps with expressionless faces.
His right elbow was holding a cold handrail, and his index finger on his left hand was knocking on the handrail, which seemed to be in deep thought and pure impatience.
His name is Sain, and he is the lord of the Petra Fortress here. His family is a famous family in the Camel Kingdom, guarding the northern border of the kingdom for generations.
The Camel Kingdom declared war on the Falcon Kingdom a long time ago, but it has not sent troops for a long time.
Although many people think this is the weakness of the royal family, he knows that it is not the case.
No one in this kingdom is more pious and braver than His Majesty.
How could that respected adult not know that the consequences of appeasement can only lead to gaining a better position.
In fact, the royal family has always been determined to assemble troops to go north to rescue, but the city lords, including the Silver Moon City Lord, only want to pay money, not people.
These profit-oriented businessmen are still counting on smashing the legion to death with their money bags.
This is not a problem that money can solve at all.
Of course Sain was on the side of the king.
The reason why Petra Fortress and his family survived to this day is due to the blessing of the royal family.
They ate the food transported from the oasis and drank the water from the oasis. They were the most loyal garrison states, which were essentially different from those city-states where nobles and merchants relied on corruption.
However, it is not enough to rely on him alone.
This kingdom corrupted by money is everywhere, and there are very few brave people.
This is true both in His Majesty the King's court and in his court...
...We should negotiate with the Legion, sit down and talk about problems that cannot be solved.
The lion royal family is too rude. If they hadn't taken in the children of the Honey Badger royal family, they wouldn't have been targeted by the Falcon Kingdom!
Actually, I think... it's not bad like the Falcon Kingdom. The legion gave them a lot of aid. The reason why that oasis has not been abandoned has to be the legion's people help them.
There is nothing to say about this. Although the Willant people have a bad temper and are a little scary about slaves, they still have nothing to say about the vassals, giving whatever they lack.
No matter what, it's good, don't fight.The soil of Petra Fortress cannot produce food, and once the war affects trade, people will be hungry.
The ministers in the palace were talking a lot.
Including those nobles, wealthy businessmen and guests who do not have real power.
Someone proposed to negotiate with the Legion.
Some people also have a vague hint that the Falcon Kingdom seems to be good. Not only is the Falcon Royal Family sitting on the throne well, but its national strength has also doubled compared to ten years ago.
Sain was very irritated when he heard this, but he couldn't get angry with these people. After all, Petra Fortress could not be separated from them.
He was about to wave his hand to drive the people away, but at this moment, footsteps came from the door of the hall.
The thick wooden door opens.
The captain of the guard stood in front of the door and saluted.
Sir, I brought that person.
The ministers and nobles in the hall stopped talking and looked at the door curiously.
Sain waved his hand and signaled him to bring the person up.
The guard captain bowed and took the order and walked out the door neatly.
Before he could wait, he brought a woman from an alien race.
Seeing this scene, everyone in the hall started to whisper, wondering what the city lord was planning to do.
Ignore the noisy sound.
Seine, sitting on the stone chair, stared at the woman under the steps and looked at her twice.
Do you know why I called you?
Knowing that it is useless to pretend to be crazy and stupid, Sce simply nodded and admitted.
Know.
Seeing the expression on his face without changing color, a hint of admiration rose in Sai'an's eyes.
Those cowards who wished to kneel down to the legion should be ashamed of what they said, and no little girl had the courage.
but
Appreciate if you appreciate it.
Law is law.
Looking down at the man under the steps, his eyes were cold and he said with a smile.
In the Hump Kingdom, rumors that deceive the public will have their tongues cut off.
If you commit fraud under the name of God, you will be divided by sorrow and buried in yellow sand and exposed to the sun for ten days. Food and fresh water will not be given to the gods.
Giving to the suffering person can be exempted from three days of punishment, and you can choose the order of punishment.
Have you pleaded guilty?
The solemn and cold sound echoed in the empty hall.
Everyone's eyes focused on her, some of them wrote surprise, some of them were indeed the case, and some of them were expressionless.
Unexpectedly, the incident that was rumored in the city was actually caused by a little girl... It sounded a bit incredible.
However, looking at the city lord's expression, it doesn't seem like he is joking.
A look of interest gradually appeared in everyone's eyes.
Regardless of whether she was pushed to take the blame or not, they were curious about how this alien girl planned to answer.
Sis was silent and didn't say anything.
She knew that no matter whether she nodded or shook her head, the outcome would not be too good.
Having said that, does giving mean using golden camel coins to exchange for those scraps?
She didn't think that was a gift, at most it was a mutually beneficial and win-win deal.
However, the city lord's understanding of what happened in the city was so good that she was really surprised.
It seems that I still take it for granted that I underestimate the wisdom of NPC.
After finishing the matter, the mercenaries should have given them a sum of money immediately and asked them to leave here quickly.
The only thing that is thankful now is that I have not implicated the rest of the Knights.
The city lord seemed to look down on their little property, and might be disdainful of plundering in this way.
The calming thoughts in Sis' mind were turning rapidly, thinking about ways to break the deadlock.
Denying those rumors yourself?
This is a fact.
She really did not make up the part about the gods, and those exaggerated rumors were born out of rumors.
However, this kind of quibbling is obviously useless. The other party will not play word games with her at all. As long as the mercenary confesses guilty, it will make no sense to deny it yourself.
As for moving out of the league, it is even more undesirable.
If the Hump Kingdom had to treat itself as a spy directed by the Alliance, the result would probably be even worse.
Not to mention whether the manager's favorability will be lost, if this is a real operation, it will turn ordinary cases into diplomatic disputes. The Hump Kingdom, which is unwarranted, is originally swaying like a fence-between. If this happens, it may turn directly to the opposite side.
Their faith is not that firm...
Wait, faith!
In an instant, he seized the clue of breaking the deadlock, and Sis's eyes lit up slightly, and his boiling brain quickly cooled down.
Recalling what she had read in the two books, she sorted out her thoughts for a moment and looked up at the city lord sitting on the stone chair.
Dear City Lord, the rumors in the city are indeed related to me, but I do not think I am guilty.
Whispers spread in the hall.
The city lord narrowed his eyes slightly and changed to his left arm to support his chin.
oh?
Although this pale quibulation could not change her fate, he still wanted to hear what the man planned to say to relieve himself of his sins.
Those rumors did arise because of me, but that was not a rumor.
She raised her head.
She could feel the sights that fell on her, most of them were malicious, and the remaining half were mostly in the mood to watch the fun.
However, she was not timid.
She knew very well that once she showed timidity at this time, even if she showed a little hesitation, it would mean that all her previous efforts were wasted.
The calm expression did not change at all. She raised the volume, and her voice brought a hint of piety or righteousness.
That confidence comes from the fact that she said is not false.
More because
That is God's will.
