Chapter 104 Hardworking little players can take care of themselves
After Chu Guang left, there was a shouting in the hall of the second underground floor.
Xiao Xiaoxiao Bookworm: “Are there any newcomers of the Perception Department? The old driver team, the front row of the Strength Department LV3, one agility and one body to deal damage. The Perception Department only needs to search for the enemy, don’t worry about anything else, I will help you pretend and fly!”
Midnight Killer Chicken: “Are there any Strength Department teams? Team up to chop trees, I will help you reach LV1 in one day!”
Fountain Commander: “Fuck! No one wants the Intelligence Department? It’s so cold!”
Elf King Fugui: “Brother, it’s not that we don’t want to take it, we don’t know how to upgrade the Intelligence Department!”
Irena: “I can teach you funny.”
The most popular newcomer is naturally the white bear, but there is only one bear, and it was soon fooled into being a tank.
Then the popular newcomers are the Perception Department, which benefits the team the most, followed by the Strength Department, which is the easiest to level up, and the Agility Department and Constitution Department, which can play in any position.
The worst is still the Intelligence Department.
In the current version, although life professions show signs of rising, not all life professions require intelligence.
It is true that the higher the intelligence attribute, the faster the skill learning will be, but this bonus is not very obvious in the novice period.
Life professions such as moving bricks, plastering, digging, transporting stones, and burning cement actually require strength.
Just when the intelligence players were hesitating and helpless, a 1.5-meter-tall intelligence girl stood up and raised her little hand.
”This is the Teng Teng Cottage, recruiting new apprentices who are willing to be tailors. Intelligence is preferred, come and sign up!”
A group of new intelligence players seemed to have lit up a bright light in the gloomy world.
”Mom, I saw an angel!”
”Coach! I want to learn tailoring!”
”Woo woo woo, from today on, scissors and needles are my life!”
”Wait, can the strength department sign up! I suddenly think that life professions are also interesting!”
”I think intuition is very important in making clothes, I am a perception department!”
”Nonsense! Tailoring must be agile! Do it quickly, speed is the king!”
Not only the newbies of the intelligence department, but also the newbies of several other departments came over.
Later, not only the newbies, but also the old players of VM came to join in the fun, asking for the rich woman’s thigh.
Teng Teng, who was drowned in the crowd, was laughing and crying, and waved his hands and said.
”Don’t come to me, I can only take three people.”
The tail standing at the edge of the crowd touched his chin and said.
”Damn, the bear was robbed.”
Sisi standing next to him sighed and rolled his eyes.
”Don’t be abominable, find a thigh to lead us quickly.”
”Thigh?”
It seemed that there was an antenna on the top of his head.
Tail stretched his neck and looked around, and suddenly his eyes lit up, locking onto a long leg that couldn’t squeeze into the edge of the square.
”Si, you are a physical type, right?”
”Yes.” “I’m
faster
, an agility type!”
With his right fist slapped on his palm, Tail stared at Crow in the distance, his eyes sparkling.
”That’s her!”
Sisi looked at Tail doubtfully.
”…Can that guy do it?” “Of course! Bigger than all of us combined!”
”…Are we talking about the same thing?”
”Big means power!”
Looking at Tail trotting over, Sisi sighed.
”This guy is crazy.”
…
Leaving the task of training the newbies to the old players, Chu Guang spent the freed time training the captives rescued from the raider’s dungeon. There were
a total of thirty captives rescued.
Before, Chu Guang asked the warehouse manager Luca to register their identities, and asked each person how they were captured, what they did before being captured, and whether they had any professional skills.
In addition, where did they come from? Are there any relatives in the wasteland? Is there anyone willing to redeem them, etc.
These are all necessary procedures.
Chu Guang needs to decide their work based on their personal experience.
Of course, if someone expresses the desire to go home, he will also generously let them go, although he will not give them travel expenses, but he will never keep them.
A forced melon is not sweet, and it may not quench thirst. Besides, these slaves cannot be stronger, better at fighting, or better at working than the players. What
Chu Guang needs is loyalty from the heart.
Only NPCs who are loyal enough can become his assistants and help him guide the players to play the game “correctly”.
Although Old Luca is illiterate and has only learned some basic pinyin, VM has a recording function, and it is also possible to record and convert oral recordings into text for archiving.
”Sir.”
Looking at Chu Guang walking towards the warehouse, Old Luca, who was teaching the survivors to abide by the rules, greeted him respectfully.
Chu Guang glanced at the survivors.
They were wearing tattered coats and leather clothes taken from the looters. Most of them were pale, thin, malnourished, and skinny.
Chu Guang had previously placed them at the brick kiln to camp, and recently moved them to the outpost, allowing them to build shacks between the south gate wall and the trenches.
Every day, Luca would cook a pot of green wheat porridge for them, cut 2 taels of raw meat and 1 jin of Chinese cabbage from the looters and chop them up and throw them in, which was the supreme delicacy for them.
This was indeed a delicacy.
After all, when they were in the dungeon before, not to mention having clothes to wear, even fatter rats and cockroaches could be called delicacies.
Where could they eat steaming hot food?
”Why are there only 25 left?” Chu Guang counted the number of people and found that there were fewer people, so he looked at Luca and asked.
Luca lowered his head and said,
”There are still 5 who didn’t make it… When they were sent back, many of them were seriously injured or even disabled. I found some herbs to bandage them, but they still didn’t survive. The old slave took the initiative and sent their bodies into that furnace. Please punish me, sir.”
Taking the initiative is okay.
Chu Guang discovered that Old Luca and Xia Yan were two extremes: one was sensible and made people feel sorry for him, while the other had to be whipped from behind before he would move.
”No need, you did the right thing,” Chu Guang nodded, and continued, “Have you finished counting the identities of these survivors?”
Luca nodded and said.
”We have finished counting!”
The recording was sorted into data and uploaded to the computer. Xiao Qi retrieved the file, sorted it out and sent it to Chu Guang’s VM.
Chu Guang’s VM is different from the VMs of players and NPCs. His has the highest authority and can directly connect to the host of Shelter No. 404. Basically, there is a signal as long as you don’t go too far from the outpost.
Looking at the list and information on the VM, Chu Guang roughly understood the identities of these survivors.
Two of them were serfs from Brown Farm, and two were hunters from Beth Street. Most of the others came from the survivor community near the northern suburbs of Qingquan City, or simply wandered to the nearby refugees.
”… Zhao Shu and Yang Ergou?”
Tsk.
What kind of names are these.
But Chu Guang has figured it out now. What should the survivors of Beth Street do if they have used up all the twelve zodiac signs and common animals?
If there are not enough people, you can still use numbers to make up.
Hearing the manager calling their names, the two skinny survivors hurriedly stood up and spoke timidly.
”Yes, sir.”
”How did you get captured by the Blood Hand Clan?” Chu Guang stared at the two and asked curiously, “Didn’t your old leech – I mean the mayor, pay protection fees to the Blood Hand Clan?”
The two looked confused.
”Protection fees…”
”No, I don’t know.”
”Sir, the mayor would never tell us this.”
”Yes… We were captured last month while hunting.”
It seems that the two children have never thought about why the predators of the Blood Hand Clan let Bet Street go.
The force of Brown Farm is not bad, and the supplies are probably given to buy peace. It probably won’t take a centurion to take down the guns and broken walls on Bet Street that can’t even stop rats.
However, it seems that protection fees and ransoms are two different concepts, and they can’t guarantee their safety when they are scavenging outside, and the mayor of Bet Street has no intention of redeeming them.
Chu Guang stared at the two of them for a while and spoke.
”Do you have relatives in Bethe Street?”
The two nodded repeatedly.
”Yes.”
”Very good, I will give you two choices now, one is to go back and reunite with your relatives, and the other is to stay and work for me.”
The two looked at each other, hesitated for a moment, looked at Chu Guang and said.
”My lord, I want to stay.”
”Me, me too.”
Chu Guang looked at them and smiled.
”Have you thought about it?”
The two nodded in unison.
”I have thought about it!”
It is difficult to hunt prey in winter, and they know very well how much food is left at home. If they go back now, it means there will be one more mouth to feed, and it is a mouth that is very greedy, which will only make the situation at home worse. They are
already very satisfied with having a place to live, a fire, and food here. Even if they want to go back, they have to wait until next spring.
Chu Guang knew very well what they were thinking, but he didn’t take it to heart.
Whether they go home with the kindness of Shelter 404 or stay here to help build the outpost, they will be useful to me.
Looking at Luca, Chu Guang continued to ask.
”Do you know any of these serfs from Brown Farm?”
Luca said respectfully.
”Don’t worry, sir. I am your servant. No matter where they come from, I will treat them equally.”
Chu Guang said with a smile.
”You just need to tell me if there are any.”
Luca nodded quickly.
”Those two are both. I know their names, although we don’t communicate much.”
Chu Guang nodded and continued.
”Those two stay, you take them to familiarize themselves with the position of warehouse manager. When they are qualified for the position of warehouse manager, the granary and warehouse will be handed over to them for management.”
”After this matter is done, I will arrange more important work for you.”
Luca was overjoyed to be valued by his master, but he still bowed his head respectfully and promised solemnly.
”Yes, sir! I promise to train them to be obedient for you. If they do anything wrong, I am willing to be punished with them!”
The serfs of Brown Farm are easy to train, and they are the most obedient.
Looking at the remaining survivors, Chu Guang thought for a moment and said,
”Let the rest of them pack up and take fuel, food and other supplies on the road.”
”Now that the snow has stopped, I need them to camp at the edge of the river on the northwest side. There is a brick kiln there, and I will arrange work for them there.”
At that time, select two smarter survivors to be foremen, give them a VM, be responsible for communicating with the players, and lead the other survivors to work.
VM has a positioning function and is turned on passively. Chu Guang is not worried at all that they will lose the precious equipment, and it is a bit difficult to damage this thing.
Luca nodded respectfully and said after receiving the order.
”Yes!”
