This game is too real.

Chapter 419 The real strength is not a grade, but a brave heart

"Good brother, the task of promoting artworks is entrusted to you!"

"Hey, I remember you asked Ah Guang if he could build a female account? The opportunity for female clothing has come!"

"Try Hei Si too!"

"Don't forget Fujito's artwork!"

"Go away!!!"

Someone shouted hoarsely from the runway of the airport. Amidst the laughter and farewell sounds of the crowd, the hatch of the "Korca" transport plane slowly closed.

The drum-shaped engine ejected a blue arc light downwards, pushing the huge body up from the runway of the airport, and flew forward smoothly.

Carrying the friendship and blessings of the residents in the southern part of the River Valley Province, that faint blue light and shadow disappeared into the distant sky.

It brings more here.

Among the crowd outside the airport, Dolly clasped her hands in front of her chest, silently chanting blessings.

After the plane disappeared, she quietly turned and left the crowd.

Laobai, Yeshi, and Kuangfeng stood outside the crowd, with a power armor and two exoskeletons, and an "Alpha Dog" next to them. The lineup was quite luxurious.

Walking in front of Dolly, Lao Bai clicked on the helmet twice, and then took off the mask.

"We'll send you to Boulder City... But, isn't Ni really here waiting for him to come back?"

"I have to go back to work," Dolly said cautiously, looking at the power armor in front of her, and whispered, "That... I can't pay that much."

Lao Bai smiled and said: "The guy has already paid the reward, so you don't have to worry about it, we will send you safely."

Dolly froze for a moment.

"How much did he give you?"

"That's not enough for at least three meals," Lao Bai said with a grin. "It's hurtful to talk about money, buddy. By the way, don't even think about paying for that guy. We won't accept someone else's invitation."

Seeing that Lao Bai said so, although Dolly was still a little embarrassed, she still accepted everyone's kindness and nodded slightly.

Before leaving, Fang Chang told her that these three were his good brothers.

When he is away, if you encounter any troubles, you can contact them.

On the other side, at the airport.

Looking at the direction where the plane disappeared, Yi Chuan was stunned for a while before he came back to his senses, and asked Chu Guang who was beside him.

"Just now... what was he shouting for?"

It seems to have heard a "get out"?
What is "Get out"?
"Uh... Anyway, it means goodbye," Chu Guang coughed dryly, and said with a delicate expression, "In shelter 404, we only use this word for our best friends."

A dazed expression appeared on Yi Chuan's face.

"So that's how it is...'Go away' means goodbye, your language is so strange."

Shouting out loud, presumably it should be an expression of strong feelings and longing for friends.

This should be remembered.

"It's been 200 years... It's normal for the accent to change a little bit. Everyone has scriptures that are difficult to recite. Okay, let's not discuss this matter." Afraid that this guy would take it to heart, Chu Guang quickly turned away topic.

Repeating the strange pronunciation in his mouth, Yi Chuan nodded, except for memorizing the pronunciation, he didn't think too much about it.

The world is so big.

There are many shelters.

Compared to those weird plans and plans, in his opinion, shelter 404 is quite normal...

……

In the distant Luoxia Province, in a small town in the northeast, there is a row of shacks beside a coal mine that looks like a pile of loess.

One side is for slaves, and the other side is for temporary workers.

"Wake up, get up quickly, it's time to go to work. Damn, sleep like a pig, do you still want wages?"

A callused hand kept patting his face.

The warzone guy who just boarded the game opened his eyes.

The venomous sunlight penetrated through the gaps in the wooden wall and sprinkled on the face, but what came into view was not a lovely face, but an old face that had been sunburned and molted, with a tinge of red in the black.

That man was the overseer of the coal mine.

The wrinkled skin reminded the Zhandi guy of a nibbler, and his eyes subconsciously let out a murderous look.

Terrified by the stare of the miner in front of him, the supervisor subconsciously took a step back, but soon realized that he was the supervisor, and stared back viciously.

"What are you looking at? Are you still doing your motherfucker?"

The guard standing at the door had a revolver on his waist, his eyes drifted to this side intentionally or unintentionally, the threat was as obvious as the shining silver light on the revolver trigger.

However, the field guys didn't take him seriously at all.

As an agility awakener with a third-stage genetic sequence, even if he was lying on his back now, there were at least three ways to rub these two idiots on the ground like dead dogs.

however……

He can't do that.

"……Dry."

Shaking his drowsy head, the warrior got out of his sleeping bag, took the mining pick next to the shack, and walked towards the hill not far away.

Watching the man's back, the overseer heaved a sigh of relief, raised his sleeve and wiped his forehead, only then did he realize that his palms were sweating.

There are two types of people who work in the mines.

One is the slave of the mine owner, and the other is the odd worker.

The former is very convenient to manage. According to the laws of the Golden Lizard Kingdom, slave owners have the right to dispose of their slaves in any way, as long as they can provide a fair contract as proof.

However, the latter case is more complicated.

Some were hiding here to escape the pursuit of their enemies, and some were merchants or mercenaries who escaped here after encountering looters and throwing away their luggage.

Just like the one just now.

That look...

It's like crawling out of the dead...

At this moment, the Zhandi guy who was walking to the mine didn't know what the ugly overseer thought of him, and was silently calculating how many Golden Lizard Coins he would have to spend to get to the No. 9 oasis.

This is a third town, also known as Sanfen Town. The origin of the name is unknown. He only knows that it is located in the northeastern border of Luoxia Province, the southernmost part of the No. 8 oasis, and it belongs to the golden The territory of the lizard kingdom.

It is rich in coal mines, iron mines, and the most common slaves in the wasteland.

The locals themselves do not capture slaves, but there are always travelers who lose their property due to various reasons, and cannot make up the travel expenses to leave the desert, so they can only sell themselves to nearby mine owners or rich local rich men.

This is probably like the predecessor of the Red River Alliance.

However, due to the low output value, no futures market has been developed.

In addition, the degree of development here is also very low, unlike the southern part of the river valley province where there are nutritional creams that can be bought.The only generator in the town is in the mine, and a check-in robot converted from a vending machine is probably the darkest technology here.

The cheapest food here is dry black bread, which can be bought for a catty with a gold coin, and then milk, which is so cheap that locals will drink it as water.

The Zhandi guy calculated that if he wanted to go to the No. 9 oasis, he had to prepare water and food for at least two weeks, and it was for two people.

Even if you eat bread every day, including the cost of fresh water, you have to prepare at least 32 Golden Lizard Coins.

One day's work will give you 4 gold lizard coins. I am an awakened person. Although I am an agility type, my strength attribute is not low. It shouldn't be a problem to work hard to get 6 gold coins.

"...According to this calculation, it will take at least 5 days."

"Wait, no, I almost forgot to count the daily expenses... In fact, only 2~3 Golden Lizard Coins can be saved in a day."

The Zhandi guy counted with his fingers, and suddenly found sadly that even if he tried his best to mine, it would take nearly two weeks to save enough travel expenses.

"Spicy chicken game, play Nima!"

After cursing, he slammed the pickaxe and hit it hard on the rock wall.

Gan!
The jumping sparks startled the miners next to them, and they all moved away to the side.

Good guy.

This grandson wants to collapse the mine!

Get away from him!
Maybe it was because the exaggerated movements were too frightening, or maybe his expression was too frightening, unknowingly there was only one person left in the entire mine section.

The Zhandi guy, who turned his grief and anger into strength, seemed to be transformed into a real pangolin at this moment. He only heard the constant bang bang bang bang bang bang, and the ore he dug out filled a whole mine cart in a short while.

Rolled up my sleeves and worked all day.

Finally walking out of the mine exhausted, the warband took today's wages from the annoying overseer at the gate.

The supervisor wanted to cut back a little water, but was frightened by the hostile eyes, and didn't dare to reach out to get it.

Weighing the pitiful 6 gold coins in his hand, the Zhandi guy couldn't help feeling a burst of emotion.

Compared with these vampires, their manager is simply too conscientious and gentle!

The minimum hourly wage in the league is one silver coin.

Working 12 hours a day makes at least 12 silver coins, but that's minimum wage, and since the League was formed, almost no one has lived on minimum wage.

Due to the rapid economic growth, coupled with the alliance's investment in industry regardless of cost, encouraging production at home, and issuing bonds to attract investment abroad, all major factories in the alliance industrial zone are recruiting workers.

As long as you can read and write, you can easily find a job with a monthly salary of 500-600 silver coins. If you can't read, you can also enroll in a night school class, doing odd jobs and learning cultural knowledge at the same time.

And if you are a technician with a skill, the salary will start at 4 digits, and there is no upper limit.

The only thing that confuses him is, since "Wasteland OL" always claims to be true, where did all the money come from?

I didn't see the manager who was picking up the wool or cutting the leeks. I saw the alliance bank throwing money everywhere, and the rewards given by the tasks were never vague.

How did this exaggerated quantitative easing rate suppress inflation?

Puzzled, Zhandi decided not to think about this complicated issue for the time being.

Anyway, he couldn't figure it out, he just had to do what pangolins should do.

With today's salary, the warrior didn't go back to the shack, but went to a nearby town.

There is also a mop bottle waiting for him to feed.

He swears.

When the task assigned to him by the manager is completed, this guy must be chopped up!

Taking a deep breath, the Zhandi put away his negative emotions and pushed open the door of the hotel.

He had just walked into the lobby of the hotel, and before he went up the stairs, he saw Colway lying drunkenly at the bar in the lobby, with Harazi spilling over the table, and a glass of half-drunk beer beside him.

Noticing the shadow falling on the table, Coleway opened his half-closed eyes, and saw the field man standing beside him.

Grinning, he waved his furry arms.

"Ah... pangolin, you're back, hicc—"

"The beer here tastes really good...Let's have a drink together. By the way, do you have any money? Settle the money for the drink for me, and I'll pay you back when I get back."

Battlefield took another deep breath.

not good.

Blood pressure is fucking up!

Resisting the urge to kill, he looked at the boss behind the bar and asked through gritted teeth.

"how much is it?"

"5, 5 golden lizard coins."

Seeing that murderous look, the boss's voice stuttered, and his hand reached for the gun hidden under the bar.

5? !

Hearing this number, the warfield guy almost spit out a mouthful of old blood, his eyes turned red instantly, and he reached out and grabbed Coleway by the collar.

It doesn't matter what identity or not.

He directly picked up the drunk Coleway and brought him in front of him, wanting to poke his nose into his eyes.

"Are you crazy! 5 gold lizards, do you know how much I earn after working so hard for a day?!"

"6 pieces! 6 pieces!"

"I worked for that group of vampires who eat people and don't spit out their bones all day, and I didn't even eat a bite of food, but you fucking drank all day here!"

"Do you still want to go back to the Legion? Are you a man?"

The Zhandi guy roared angrily, cursing, and even hoarse, so that the original stuttering people's words were all smoothed out.

The whole tavern fell silent, staring at this side dumbfounded... including the boss standing behind the bar.

Legion?

These two... are members of the Legion?

The shoulders undulated violently, like waves lapping on the shore, and the Zhandi guy's eyes turned into copper bells.

If eyes could kill, the guy he held in his hands had already died countless times, and he never relented when he killed legionaries.

Grass!
Niang Xipi, I can't take it anymore!

He felt that at this moment, he was wronged like a little daughter-in-law who worked two jobs to support the family, and her husband was still a waste who ate, drank, prostituted, gambled and didn't work.

By the way, the legion is famous, right?
It's famous!
The red name can be killed, right?

It doesn't matter if it's safe or not, he has already thought about it, if he kills this guy, he will commit suicide, three days is three days, it's better than wasting three months!

Your NPC is not a human being——

Don't blame Grandpa for being a bad person!

"What the hell are you doing—"

Kerway, who was grabbed by the collar, was stunned. Seeing the pangolin who was about to yell at the pangolin who was grabbing his collar, he suddenly noticed the look of "hating iron but not steel", and stopped speaking when he reached his mouth.

A feeling of shame rolled in his chest.

When he rolled up his sleeves in the coal kiln to save the travel expenses for returning to the original army, he used his hard-earned hard-earned money to get drunk and anesthetized himself with alcohol to avoid failure and reality.

As a noble Willant, his loyalty to the Legion and His Majesty the Marshal actually lost to a wastelander who was born in the wild...

Ashamed emotions turned into remorse, Kerway closed his eyes in pain and let out a sigh.

"Sorry……"

"..."

The battlefield guy's chest heaved violently, and he gritted his teeth in hatred.

He was thinking about how to arrange for this guy to die, but he didn't expect to hear the three words "sorry" from this mouth.

"...I know, my escapism is ugly. My cowardice and incompetence have failed your loyalty. I am not a good leader."

Looking at the furious pangolin, Kerway's Adam's apple twitched, and the guilt in his eyes grew stronger.

Suddenly, as if he had made up his mind, he spoke.

"pangolin."

"What are you doing?" the warlord said fiercely.

Now when he hears the name pangolin, he gets angry, so angry that he wants to cut himself off.

Colway looked at him.

"Kill me."

The Zhandi guy was slightly stunned, and couldn't be overwhelmed by the expression on his face and these words.

Seeing that he didn't speak, Kerway continued in a calm tone.

"Take my head back to the River Valley Province, where the survivors live...should give you a sum of money. I am ashamed of my decadence and self-abandonment, I am not worthy of your loyalty, this is what I can A final reward for you, and hope it will make up for your disappointment."

Seeing those sincere eyes, the Wardi fell silent, loosened his grip on his collar, and then tightened it again.

This bastard...

"...I f---ing left for a week... no, it was two weeks, just for the head of a centurion?"

Who cares about your head so much!

Do you really think that the alliance is a scalping native?

Staring at this guy, he squeezed out a word through his teeth.

"...If you still have a little bit of self-esteem and pride in your heart, slap yourself twice, and then stand up from here! You lost, but you are still alive, and the only thing you can do is die! You will die on the way back!"

The warfield guy let go of his hand and pushed him, and threw him back to sit on the bar counter.

It's easy to kill a person.

But dead people are worthless.

Zhan Di admitted that he was indeed a little impulsive just now, and thought of giving up altogether.

Just a game.

Does Lao Tzu need to be so angry?
But after calming down and thinking about it, he finally let go of the hostility in his heart.

Especially when he recalled that night, the little girls who fought bravely with the legion's pursuers in the forest made him blush even more.

People who came into contact with this game later than him, and those who are weaker than him can persevere optimistically and fight bravely to the end...

What qualifications do you have to give up lightly?

He has done a good job along the way. Not only has he managed to gain the trust of the army officers, Kerway even promised to introduce him to General Griffin. He is only a little away from success...

He is far from the end of his rope.

"...Looks like I'm not strong enough." Glancing at Kerway who was lost in thought, the Battlefield guy murmured in his heart.

For different reasons, both of them seemed to have fallen into reflection, and calmed down in unison.

However, at this moment, Zhandi suddenly noticed that everyone in the tavern was looking at him.

Also noticing the gazes of the crowd watching, Kerway suddenly looked a little embarrassed, and whispered.

"...Did you just mention the Legion?"

At this time, even denying it is useless, and the people around have obviously heard it.

Zhandi's Adam's apple twitched, and he nodded slightly.

"Um……"

Damn, sloppy.

There were more than [-] people in the lobby, all of them armed with guns. Although they drank some wine, they didn't look like weak chickens.

With his skill, I am afraid that if he solves half of them at most, he will be beaten into a sieve.

This is still a relatively optimistic situation.

But to his surprise, no one moved.

Are you waiting for an opportunity?

While he was thinking about it, at a round table near the door, a man with the appearance of a merchant exchanged a few words with two mercenaries next to him, stood up from the table, and walked towards them.

The battlefield nerves were tense, staring at him intently, his right hand had already touched the table knife.

Not just to guard against this person.

Also to beware of the innkeeper behind the bar.

The movement under the table was obvious, whether it was the sound of opening the safety or pulling the trigger, the middle-aged man with a full beard had already grasped the gun hidden there.

And it's a revolver.

Zhan Di calmly observed the situation in the lobby, already thinking about it.

If the boss had pulled out his gun, he would have cut the guy's throat with the table knife in his hand immediately, and then thrown Colway behind the bar, using the bar as a cover to exchange fire with the rest of the lobby.

This is the border of the Golden Lizard Kingdom, and the camels are tied to the backyard of the hotel. It should not be difficult to escape into the desert by stealing supplies from other caravans...

"Relax... we mean no harm."

The businessman walking towards the two showed a friendly smile and raised his hands to indicate that he was unarmed.

"My name is Adan, and I'm from the Bugra Free State... The two are members of the Legion?"

The battlefield guy was slightly taken aback.

"Yes."

The businessman named Adan continued talking with great interest.

"It's really strange... This is Oasis No. 8, have you already called here?"

Battlefield and Kerway at the side exchanged glances.

The latter cleared his throat, stood up from the bar, regained his officer's aura and demeanor, and took over the conversation from the field guy.

"We ran into a little accident and got separated from the big team."

Hearing these words, everyone in the lobby heaved a sigh of relief, and stopped looking at this side, but in the voices of people drinking and drinking, there were some topics related to the frontline war.

The businessman named A Dan nodded suddenly, his eyes looked up and down the man in front of him, as if he was pondering his identity.

Touching his chin, he said thoughtfully.

"So that's how it is... In other words, the battle on the No. 9 oasis is not over yet?"

Kerway looked a little embarrassed.

Originally, the Heart of Steel planned to return to the No. 9 oasis to join forces with the front-line troops. However, no one expected that they encountered a group of desperate natives and shot down the airship that was impossible to fail.

Without the fire support and high-altitude reconnaissance from the Iron Heart, the combined forces of the Falcon Kingdom and the Legion in the No. 9 Oasis obviously failed to meet expectations.

If they successfully joined forces, I'm afraid the No. 9 oasis would have been taken long ago.

It seems that he misunderstood the expression on Kerway's face, Adan smiled and said.

"Don't be nervous, we have no malicious intentions. In fact... we happen to have a batch of supplies to be sent to the No. 9 oasis. If you don't mind, we can go together."

A fallen officer.

The identity itself is full of stories.

If this unlucky guy can be sent back to the Legion, the Legion will never be stingy with rewards.

What's more, this favor is absolutely beneficial and harmless to a businessman like him who does business with the Legion. Many people in the Buguera Free State have made a fortune by relying on these big noses.

Kerway's eyes lit up, but his heart quickly became alert, and his eyes narrowed slightly.

"How do I know you won't sell me to the lion kingdom."

Although drunk.

But his IQ is still online.

Adan made a helpless expression, reached into his arms, and took out a list under the vigilant eyes of the two.

"You should know this order, right?"

Cole narrowed his eyes slightly and looked at the words written on the order, his eyes suddenly filled with surprise.

The Zhandi guy noticed the change in his expression, but Naihe didn't have a translation tool and couldn't recognize the words written on that piece of paper, so he could only ask in a low voice.

"What's written on it?"

"Eight thousand rifles, 120 million rounds of ammunition... This is a procurement contract with the legion's seal on it and the signature of the logistics chief. I recognize that guy's handwriting."

Kerway looked at the businessman named Adan, his eyes were no longer alert, but excited.

"Are you going to Oasis No. 9?"

"Of course, it seems that you are the same," Adan smiled and took the order back into his arms, and then stretched out his right hand to Kerway, "In this case, if you don't mind, we can go together."

Kerway shook his right hand, his eyes drifted around unconsciously, and asked in a low voice.

"Are these people okay?"

Seeing the worry in his eyes, Adan smiled and said.

"What's the problem? Respect the teachings of the Spirit of the Sand Sea. According to the ancient covenant, although all the kings in the desert have sent a declaration of war to the Falcon Kingdom, only the Lion Kingdom has actually sent troops."

"The Hump Kingdom is in the southernmost part of the desert. It's too far away, and it doesn't want to fight. The royal family of the Golden Lizard has long been less pious... It seems a bit inappropriate for me to say this here. In short, they prefer those things to the illusory existence." The nerds who can bring them quirky gadgets, you know who I'm talking about."

Colway frowned.

"Academy?"

"Yes."

After a pause, Adan said with a smile.

"Anyway, it's fairly safe here. The locals may not like your nose very much, but they don't want to cause trouble. Our trade route has been running for some days. The guards of the kingdom know where the munitions are sent, but no one will After careful investigation, everyone turned a blind eye."

Hearing this sentence, Kerway heaved a sigh of relief, with a relieved expression on his face.

"It seems that I was worried for nothing... Thank you for the information."

In the past two days, even when drinking, he didn't dare to show his nose, but blocked it with a scarf.

But it made him uncomfortable!

"You're welcome, you are our important customers," Adan nodded slightly, and said in a pleasant voice, "There are quite a few caravans here from the Buguera Free State to the No. 9 oasis...General Griffin took action Very generous, thanks to that adult, we have also made a lot of money."

Seeing Kerway having a pleasant conversation with Adan, the Zhandi guy standing aside was secretly surprised.

Good guy.

Isn't the Buguera Free State a vassal of the Great Rift Valley?
The merchants there are actually doing business with the Legion! ?

What's even more outrageous is that the battle situation in Luoxia Province is also different from the information published on the official website.

There is no kingdom alliance at all, and the lion kingdom is supporting it alone from the beginning to the end. The kings declare war on the surface, but they are all appeasement behind their backs.

The Golden Lizard Kingdom in the far north is even more awesome.

These smart people turned a blind eye to the enemy's supply line in their own territory, acquiescing to the equipment of the Buguera Free State to be sent from the northern part of the valley province to the front line of the No. 9 oasis.

Do you think you won't get beaten if your back is against the academy?
This is too coquettish!

"My lord... I'm tired, and I want to go back to my room and lie down for a while." The warfield guy said in a low voice, with a tired expression on his face.

He is not tired at all.

The most important thing now is to go offline quickly and return to the official website to share this explosive news with everyone.

After the last update, the official website forum also has a task bar. This kind of heavyweight information is not only silver coins, but also rewards with huge contribution points!

Hearing the voice of the pangolin, Kerway turned his head.

He didn't care about this subordinate's rudeness to him before, he nodded slightly, and said in a gentle tone.

"Go... By the way, you don't have to go out to work tomorrow, I can't let my loyal subordinates do that kind of lowly work."

With those gentle eyes, he looked at the Zhandi guy with goose bumps all over his body.

Not noticing the weird look on his subordinates, and having no doubts about his loyalty, Kerway looked back at Adan.

"Can you lend me some money? I will use my honor to guarantee that I will pay you back double when I arrive at the legion's garrison."

"You're too polite. It's just some extraneous possessions. The money is just for making friends." While speaking, Adan smiled and put a bag of gold coins on the table.

There are 200 dinars in it.

Just being able to recognize the signature on that order sheet alone was worth investing in him.

Grabbing a handful of gold coins from the bag and slapping them on the table, Kerway looked at the boss behind the bar.

"Are these enough?"

Looking at the gold coins on the table, the boss straightened his eyes, no matter how annoying the protruding bridge of the nose was, he nodded and said with a smile.

"Enough is enough... 10 dinars are enough!"

He was afraid that these people would renege on their debts before, so he touched the gun under the table.

As for now, there is no need to worry about this problem at all, a bag of gold coins is enough to live with him until the end of next month.

Looking at the hotel owner who was counting the money carefully, the drunken decadence could no longer be seen on Kerway's face, and the glory of the Legion seemed to return to him.

He raised his chin, looked at the boss with his nostrils, and said lightly.

"Don't count, the rest of the money will open another room for my warrior, the most spacious room in this store!"

"Also, prepare a bucket of hot water and clean towels, as well as a pound of cooked beef and the best beer, and send them to his room!"

"Remember, ask for the best beer," Colway pointed his index finger on the table, pointed to the half glass of beer, and squinted at the hotel owner, "If you dare to fool me with this kind of swill-like garbage If you pass by here next time, I will bring someone to demolish your house!"

"Okay, my lord!" He didn't care about the threat at all, and the rich boss's eyes burst into joy, he quickly took the gold coins on the table into his arms, went back to the back kitchen behind the bar, and called the servants to get ready.

Kerway looked back at the pangolin again, and said in a gentle voice.

"Thank you for waking me up and reminding me that there are things in this world that are more important than life... Go back and rest, take a hot bath and eat before going to sleep."

"We're leaving early tomorrow morning."

Watched by those gentle eyes, the Zhandi guy only felt goosebumps all over his body fall to the ground, and his scalp went numb like touching a switch.

Oh shit.

You have to lock the door tonight...
