Chapter 636 Maple City
The landscape of the world is not static.
Huge maple trees break through the sky, adult-sized red maple leaves flutter in the wind, and the golden luster spreads all over the ground, but it is not dazzling. The sunset in the evening gives people a sense of tranquility and serenity.
Among the mountains, there is such a city, which is built on the mountain and surrounded by a moat of cabbage.
Standing in the distance, it is a beautiful picture of dusk, but for people who live in the local area.
"If the scenery is not always like this, the maple leaves keep falling, the sun always sets, and you can't see the night 24 hours a day, then it is really a good place for vacation."
The local resident supervisor, with just one sentence, shattered all the possible romantic expectations of the visitors.
"That will be tiring?"
"It's super tiring. When I first came here, I didn't expect that facing the same time point/scenery for a long time, 24 hours at dusk, would make my spirit so exhausted."
"The Capital of Autumn Leaves" is the folk name of this world, but humans are more accustomed to calling it Maple City for short.
The scenery of this world is too special, as if time has stopped at dusk at the end of autumn, and has been in this weird scenery.
Not to mention the night, the creatures here have never even seen the sun, and the weather does not change. The fixed scenery, the fixed weather, the fixed astronomical conditions every day.
For most creatures, after the initial indulging in the beauty, the next thing is quite uncomfortable torture.
Most lives have a set of mechanisms that operate inside the body, and they will be replaced and adjusted according to external conditions. No matter how difficult the environment is, they can adapt. But the same scene forever, the world where the sunset cannot be seen, will completely mess up the biological clock, and cause The most important thing is a series of physiological/non-physiological cycle replacements of endocrine, work and rest time, and work excitement period.
The body of a mortal needs to be adjusted in periods of rest, work, entertainment, and sleep in order to be able to run longer, but here, what you see when you open your eyes is always the same scenery.
"It's a good thing that you are willing to come. Two battle groups withdrew a few days ago. They can't stand the environment here. Don't talk about them, in fact, I want to leave."
Just like human beings will adjust their activity cycle according to the light conditions, here is always in the state of sunset, which will make people drowsy/long-term insomnia/spiritual haggard/excessively excited and crazy. The above is not a single option, it has been proven that it can Get a variety of DEBUFF at the same time, enjoy the joy of multiple psychosis.
However, this is not a negative state or a psionic attack, but the error correction and adjustment mechanism in the body is operating normally. The more accurate the biological clock is, the more sensitive it is to changes in the surrounding environment, and the more it suffers from this kind of backlash.
It’s not that there is no way to adapt. You can stay there for a few years, and you might get used to it. But after you go out, your situation will probably be even worse, and you will have to start adapting again.
"...Did you offend anyone? You actually took the initiative to come to this world to garrison? Or, I will send a report to the higher-ups and ask them to transfer you to the border theater next door. Suffering here."
Although there was a reason for receiving the application for support, the garrison officer was indeed out of good intentions, and at the same time, he was also thinking about the permanent friendly troops here.
The most direct manifestation of this endless sunset is that people are in a state of long-term fatigue. The state of poor sleep, extremely tired body, but extremely excited spirit, daydreams and hypochondria patients are too common, and soldiers whose reason is on the verge of collapse, have a great understanding of themselves. security is a serious threat.
Once upon a time, someone laughed, "This is all fake, this is just a dream", and then opened the gate when a god-level monster attacked the city, dragging a group of people to their sudden death.
Of course, human sword masters have experienced hundreds of battles and have never seen any environment. Such mentally weak people are only a very small number, but these occasional accidents also made the local garrison habitually reject seemingly immature reinforcements.
"...Don't worry, we don't plan to be stationed for a long time. We are mainly here to 'collect', and we will leave when we have enough materials."
Zheng Li knew that the uncle on the opposite side thought that he and his party were too "young", so he didn't explain anything.
Collect materials?The middle-aged garrison officer nodded without saying anything.
There are too many types of development of human sword masters and spirit blades, and the required materials and environment are also messy. Although the natural conditions here are extremely bastard, the elements of "eternity" and "autumn day" have been carved into the foundation of the world. Among them, it is quite normal for a sword master with this ability to come here to hunt.
So, will you leave the city for a long time to hunt?Glancing at the young man in front of him, he didn't plan to take care of the veteran who had been in the battlefield for a long time. As long as he didn't die in front of him, or cheated people in his own city, he didn't bother to take care of them.
In fact, if it wasn't for the fact that the young man in front of him had a letter of introduction from Mayor Li, it would not have been his turn to receive him personally as a garrison officer.
After a few more pleasantries, it was confirmed that the Peace Corps might leave the city at any time. After a brief introduction to the local situation, the garrison officer left in a hurry. As the head of the city, his daily workload was quite exaggerated.
Zheng Li, who had obtained the local freedom of movement permission after watching the uncle leave, nodded in satisfaction.
In the context of an all-out war, any mobilization of combat power must contribute to the victory. If there is no letter of introduction from Mayor Li, the too young Zheng Li and the Peace Corps, even if they are allies who come to support them on their own initiative, can only do so. If you can "obey the arrangement", then the treasure hunt will be over.
Yes, great treasure hunting.
The reason why I came to this "Sunset World" is mainly because of the "news" I got before. If I guessed correctly, the last treasure of the centaur clan is in this world.
The current battlefield has been fully spread out, and the major worlds have begun to see blood. The official main force is fighting on the main battlefield, and the secondary combat power and civilian combat power will naturally be filled to the corners.
Generally speaking, both participation in the war and scheduling are required to apply. At least, at the moment when Shiqiancheng has not declared a state of full-scale war (emergency), most free battle groups still have decision-making power.
Since they all took the initiative to go to the front line, they definitely didn't come here for sightseeing. Although it sounds subtle, the sword master is indeed the most suitable professional system for fighting. If you want to grow fast, just come to the battlefield and gamble. All year round.
Zheng Li rejected Mayor Li's kindness—to participate in the secondary battlefield as an attache, and help the powerful battle group.
This is basically tantamount to mixing honors with the bosses. On the battlefield where the top battle groups are dead, Zheng Li and his party will definitely be arranged in a safe place to mix seniority. They go to the first-line and second-line battlefields to give away their heads.
Zheng Li's refusal was expected by Mayor Li. Most aspiring young people would rather display their strengths in small and medium-sized battlefields than follow along.
Choose a frontier world or fortress, and sharpen your minions and swords in actual combat. It is a spiritual improvement and a material harvest. You can also gain fame and glory. Apart from being prone to sudden death, there seems to be no other disadvantages .
And the battlefield pressure in this twilight world is actually not great, what really puts the pressure on is the surrounding environment. In the eyes of the garrison officer, Zheng Li and his party are the sons/young soldiers who come to mix seniority, as long as they don't cause trouble for themselves.
dead outside?That's even better, out of sight, out of mind.
Zheng Li didn't explain, and he didn't bother to explain. These veterans didn't know that they were transferred from that world before. Many of them rarely even went back to the big cities. Their reputation probably meant nothing to them, and it was impossible to even listen to them. Let’s talk about this rookie. After all, Zheng Li only debuted for more than three years. For many veterans, that is a time of rotation.
Do they look at people, or directly look at actions and strength, and want their trust?Let's talk about the results.
The knowledgeable Zheng Li didn't bother, thanked the other party for his rare friendliness, and started collecting and storing materials with his pass and shopping card. At the current war time, most of the military supplies have to obtain official permission for entering, exiting, and buying and selling.
Sadly, it seems that all the materials that the sword master needs can be called military supplies.
The result is that during the war period, the civilian car repair shops that can be used on weekdays are not available. You can only go to the official car repair shop if you want to repair your car.
"...Those bastards, the maintenance fee and material fee have been increased by at least 3%."
Lin Shiyu, the part-time financial supervisor, was indignant, but Xiao Yinghuo, who was the real "big money eater", continued to play her game with a face full of indifference.
One good thing about being addicted to games is that her desire for evolution and powerful accessories is not high, which saves money (games are much cheaper than big car accessories).
In fact, many wargroups were overwhelmed by Eldarized carts. Except for alternative existences like Yinghuo, other carts often had a strange persistence and desire for evolution and growth.
Complete the report according to the requirements of the notice, and then throw the firefly cart to the garage for daily maintenance and environmental transformation. The group also has a free time in the afternoon.
"It's so expensive to put a light-proof film on the glass? At least four times that in Shiqian City. These guys are too much."
Facing the angry deficit manager, Zheng Li smiled and didn't answer.
In fact, he could understand, and even felt that the sale was too cheap.
Sure, impact-resistant glass isn't a rare commodity, and retrofitting it against light isn't a high-tech job, but there's no glass here.
Get semi-products in a special area, send them all the way through untold hardships, and only give you 4 times the price, which is already for the sake of seeing the war.
If it were me, I would lose if I didn’t give you a 20-fold increase.
No, no, this is too childish, and it is too obvious to cause public outrage.
Well, you can also control the supply of goods and then play auctions, ship regularly and ask helpers to raise the price, maybe a piece of glass sold for 20 billion!
"Tsk, the deficit is a bit outrageous."
Zheng Li had a rare time to look through the ledger, and was also taken aback by the astonishing deficit.
Originally, the Peace Corps had a surplus on the books, but due to continuous emergencies, there was no time to take on big orders to make money. Even if there were a lot of material, favors, and meritorious gains along the way, there was no chance to exchange these things for finances. An income figure on the balance.
Plus, some money just can't be saved
Some people have complained about insomnia and nausea, at least in the car, to create a restful sleep environment.
If you have the money, a regular lighting system works better.
And this weird environment will also cause problems for many carts with their own agricultural crops, and the food system will also be in trouble.
"Automatic solar simulator", "light-proof glass X120 kit", "self-adjusting four-season greenhouse" can solve all the above problems, except that they are very expensive and have no other problems.
If you want to stay or hunt in this world for a long time, you may not be able to save some money. Even if you let the master craftsman go to COPY to learn, the process and energy of technical disassembly and imitation are too exaggerated, and the supply of raw materials must be solved. It's better to spend more money and buy it directly.
Routine maintenance is only a small part of the deficit, and the most expensive thing is the adaptive transformation of the Yinghuo cart.
Moreover, this is still a bottomless pit. Anyone who plays "collection puzzle" games such as assembly machines, models, and board games knows that as long as you want your machine to "be stronger", there is always a better, more invincible, name. Cooler accessories are waiting for your wallet. Considering that the time in the local area is not too long, Zheng Li just bought the "cheapest" localization suit, but the bill is still terrible.
When most people got the rare vacation and enjoyed the exotic customs freely, Zheng Li was still working overtime on his own initiative.
He set off again just after he came back, and he didn't have time to sort out the current specific situation.
"The seven worlds that have been affected by the main battlefield, are the battles still prevailing?"
Glancing at the latest battle report on the main battlefield, Zheng Li is not very interested. This is the road that must be fought for both sides. Maybe the winner will be decided in the end, but before everything is over, it will be a naked flesh harvester that consumes each other's Vitality.
Instead, he became interested in another piece of information.
"The spiritual race changed its name? Oh, a country and organization was established, could it be the legendary Avengers?!"
The scattered information was not comprehensive and systematic. It took Zheng Li a while to get a more comprehensive report from the official information station.
"A sovereign organization at the core of the Avengers? Learned from the previous lessons, and found twelve 'elders' to supervise him?"
Zheng Li shook his head, not optimistic about what those people did. From the moment they accepted AI's comprehensive social control again, they were already doomed to become losers controlled by AI
"The inertia of society? Or is it the instinct of intelligent creatures to pursue ease and a happy life in the past?"
Zheng Li shook his head helplessly. Regarding the matters of these new races, the newspapers did not say anything in detail. It seems that they have not yet fully negotiated, and have not yet reached a step of full union.
But it is a great thing for Zheng Li that the Avengers ascend to the throne.
Not long after Zheng Li arrived in the local "Maple Leaf City", the "Express Express" came to his door, and the Avengers also fulfilled their promise and sent a big gift.
