Bengtie: Reject the system at the beginning and become a powerful person!

unknown guest

A special group with the best credit and reputation in the universe. Even in some worlds that have not yet been connected to the galaxy, their traces can be found.

Unfortunately, it is difficult for them to enjoy this treatment.

The journey continues, and Schneider and his companions are just such an unfortunate group of unknown travelers.

Their train has no space teleportation, and the star track it takes is different from the route taken by the protagonists in the game. Their route is more desolate.

Don't forget, this was an era when interstellar expansion had not yet been fully paved.

The credit system connects thousands of worlds, but unfortunately, Akivali has opened up so many new places that the unknown people in remote areas are still unable to enjoy the benefits brought by credit points.

Let me ask you, if something extremely precious to World A is given to an unknown guest as a gift or material, but in the next world, this thing is worthless, what should they do with it?

The right way is to choose food that is more valuable, but unfortunately, even the safest behavior is so difficult to achieve in the highly differentiated arena of the galaxy.

His honey, my arsenic.

The story of pioneer Schneider comes from such an extremely bad start.

"Their original goal was to come down to replenish some resources, collect some food and specialties from the land, and collect a little of everything. Only in this way would they have enough to survive in the next world."

"I was saved by them as a matter of course, and the price they paid was just a few meals?"

Speaking of this, Schneider showed some reminiscence and sarcasm, and it was unclear whether it was towards himself or towards that damn world.

"Exploration is not always smooth sailing. In fact, going to an unknown planet is no different from gambling. We may make a lot of money in this world, but we may be poor in the next world."

"Unfortunately, our navigator and conductor died early. We can only continue to move forward based on the atlases they left behind, carefully pioneering in the old books."

"At that time, I had not yet learned much about the company. I knew nothing about it except the synesthesia beacon... Because the area is remote and out of touch with the company, there is no credit point system at all. Otherwise, with the company's food production technology, we would never starve to death."

"Even the synesthesia beacon I'm using now is a legacy left behind by the previous pioneer after his death."

"That was a really miserable time. We were hungry one day and full the next. Except for a fixed celebration banquet after the development of each planet, our food supply was always counted."

"I still remember that time, in addition to food, our warehouse was full of everything. There were a lot of miscellaneous things. These were treasures given by the people we helped. They were proof of our journey through this world."

"Although it was really hard at that time, we still practiced the mission of 'opening up' and selflessly helped the locals solve their problems in exchange for material things."

"But not everyone will treat others with beauty. We have also experienced the life of being wanted. There have also been situations where we have tried our best to help them but got nothing in return. After all, we are all poor."

“Food is not only valuable to us, but also to them.”

"But the fighting and playing along the way were the happiest time of my life."

"Until... the remnants of the Swarm Scourge arrived."

Schneider paused, and Bai Yu discovered that his knuckles had turned white from clenching his fists, and it was obvious that he was very emotional.

"After a long period of starvation, our physical fitness is not good, and the result of facing the Zerg is predictable. Fortunately, our pioneering efforts along the way were not in vain. With the gift of an arms country, we finally managed to escape the Zerg's pursuit. However, the disaster has really arrived."

"The insect swarm has infiltrated the warehouse."

"The results of our pioneering work over the past decade have been devoured and digested by them, used for division and growth."

"Among them, there are some energy minerals and creations that seem quite precious now. It's a pity... the energy system may not be applicable to all planets."

"Just like that, our last bit of food is gone."

"We had to prepare for the warp two days in advance, but we had already used the warp to escape the swarm. It was a hopeless situation."

"Members died of starvation one after another, and our last rations were those disgusting bugs."

"Some didn't make it, and drifted off into space in their space suits, looking for ways to survive on their own."

"I was the last person to survive. The conductor and the navigator were both dead. He was the one who pulled me in. He was about the same age as me. I remember him very clearly."

"When they are placed in the company, they are just temporary positions. They don't have professional knowledge and flexible growth, and they have caused a lot of trouble."

"But... in the final analysis, we are all family members on the same train..."

When Schneider said this, his voice choked up a little.

"If you don't want to say it, don't say it. It's okay."

Bai Yu patted his broad shoulders.

"No...it has already happened. I feel relieved after talking about it."

Schneider shook his head, his eyes filled with sadness.

"I was lucky. I managed to hold on to the last line. I tore off the train seats and ate the few pieces of leather and fabric on them, along with the dirt in the storage room that even insects wouldn't eat."

"My physical fitness is the best among us, and I still have enough water at the end, so I lasted nearly half a month..."

"In the end, he couldn't hold on any longer and passed out. He was not discovered and rescued until the company's pioneering team salvaged the wreckage of the train."

"Yeah... We don't have the money to repair and maintain the train. It has carried us through wind and rain, through the asteroid belt, through the nebula gate, and escaped the pull of the planet's gravity. It's already broken down."

"It's normal to be considered scrapped..."

"Despite this, it protected us until the very end."

"Even if... there is only an unknown guest like me left."

Schneider looked up.

"So, now you understand why an unknown guest would become the director of the company's marketing department?"

"Even if they initially just wanted to borrow the reputation of the Nameless Guest to develop markets and spread credit to the dozens of planets we have passed through, even if they just wanted to use their good impression of us to invade and conquer them."

"Yes, there have been many people in the company who have stabbed me in the back because of these things. I still can't forget everything on those planets. I also always remember when they came to the company and the life after that."

"Because of me, the credibility of the Nameless Guest and the information influence among the Nameless Guests in various parts of the universe, they did not take too harsh actions against them."

"But from the day I was rescued, I made up my mind."

"Nameless Guest, at least in my lifetime, I cannot let the same experience happen to other interstellar travelers."

"After that, the nameless guest Schneider died, and only a "protector" named Osvaldo remained."

“My goal has been simple from the beginning.”

Schneider slowly turned his chair and looked at Pierpoint behind him, as well as the orange-yellow starry sky in the sky.

“Giving values ​​a unified standard and connecting the world, this is my “pioneering”.

Be it means or reputation, he has always been walking on his own path.

Bai Yu nodded. At this moment, he couldn't help but admire the man in front of him.

Use "preservation" to guard your will and use "exploration" to carry out your life.

No need to understand, no need to agree.

It’s just the choice of a former unknown guest.
