In Zhou Jinru's impression, stone worm gambling is probably the same type as the cockfighting, dog fighting, and horse racing that he knows, and it is a project for the rich.
Of course, he himself has not participated in similar entertainment projects.
Xiao Ke was quite interested in this and pointed at the Origin Stone Worm in a track: "Shall we just choose it?!"
"good."
The Pero people immediately placed a bet, which was two Originium ingots.
After the competition started, the Originium Stone she chose moved, but she failed to get a ranking. According to the rules of the competition, she could return an Originium Ingot.
"What to choose next?"
"Let's do this."
Source Stone Ingot-2.
…
"Then what?"
"this."
Source Stone Ingot-1.
…
"What to choose?"
"It's your choice."
"Okay, that's it."
A few minutes later.
"Wow, first place! This is my prize!"
Get a box of Victoria rations.
…
-2.
-2.
-2.
Obtain Overseer Sarkaz's Whistle.
…
Xiao Mo was about to place a bet when the doctor beside her held her hand down: "Okay, stop playing."
"good."
At this moment, she has won three prizes, and the last prize is called Rusty Blade, which is a book.
Peluo people do not have the habit of concentrating on reading, which needs to be cultivated carefully, but Zhou Jinru did not touch the things that belonged to her.
"Doctor, let's go see that huge skeleton."
"Are you interested?"
"I want to see!"
"Walk."
Big hands holding small hands, the two people came to the huge half-excavated skeleton.
No matter how many times you see it, you will always be shocked that there is such a big creature in this land.
The night was getting darker, and the excavation site was not as lively as it was during the day. Apart from the two of them, there was another person who also stopped to watch.
Xiao Ke exclaimed: "It's so big."
The man sighed: "It is indeed very big. It has been so long since its existence that there is no legend about it in this land."
Keobei asked in surprise: "Do you know many legends?"
"There are many, what do you want to hear?"
The girl grabbed the doctor's hand beside her: "I want to hear about heroes."
"That's it.
On the Sami Icefield in the far north, warriors with the ancient bloodline of Wendigo fought against the twisted evil spirits for their motherland. They fought until exhaustion, just to protect the land behind them. The difference is that the warriors are loyal to the emperor, while the heroes are loyal to the people. .
Under the magnificent tower of Leitania, the twin princesses of light and shadow defeated the evil Witch King and cut off his horns. When the Witch King fell from the tower, even his people could not believe the twisted monster in front of them. He was the hero who protected them in the past, the Witch King who made them fear him.
In the south of this land, when the Golden City fell into a terrible silence, everything lost its meaning. People who upheld the faith stepped forward, turned into light and dispersed the shadows.
In an uninhabited crater, there lived a tin man. No one knew why he stayed there, and no one knew what he was guarding.
The little girls, whether they are Wendigo or the Twin Princesses, or the Witch King who was killed by them, transformed into a warrior of light, these legendary stories are all heroic legends, but under the dust, there are countless heroic epics, but What's the point of it all? "
The storyteller shook his head and left, disappearing into the night.
Xiao Ke held the doctor's hand and asked doubtfully: "Isn't it bad to be a hero?"
"Heroes are human beings too, and they bear far heavier responsibilities than ordinary people. Sometimes what defeats them is not a powerful enemy, but a sharp knife from behind, or..."
The Pero man asked in a rare move: "Or what?"
"Blind trust and fanatical worship, as long as they are human, when they are exhausted, in order to respond to trust and worship, and to uphold the faith, the hero will only have one fate in the end."
"Will you die?"
"Mental breakdown, physical death, maybe both."
Keobei shook his head: "The doctor is Xiaoke's hero, but if such a situation occurs one day, Xiaoke hopes that the doctor will not be a hero."
On the way back, a Zalac man from Colombia stood on a pile of boxes, as if this was the only way to make his short body stand out from the crowd.
"Here are all rare and good products that I got from special channels in Colombia. Don't miss it if you pass by. You can buy a box with five source stone ingots, and maybe you can get what you want. !”
Zhou Jinru looked at the dirty formal clothes of the Zalak people and thought to himself, isn't this a blind box? If he could pull out any good things, he would probably be a poor liar who was just showing off.
Xiaoke wagged his tail: "Doctor! Let's try it!"
"Really?"
"Um!"
Zhou Jinru counted the Source Stone ingots, which were enough for them to draw four times, and asked Xiao Ke to draw the blind box.
The first box contained only some questionable reagents, the second box contained useless mechanical parts, and the third box contained a bag of table salt.
It seems this guy is indeed a liar.
The Zarak man smiled broadly, as if the boxes he sold contained very valuable treasures.
Only one last chance left.
Xiao Ke carefully chose between the two boxes. The girl closed her eyes tightly, and after careful consideration, she chose the box on the other side.
In an instant, Zhou Jinru caught the strange emotion of the stall owner and was surprised. Could he really be selling something good?
Xiao Ke opened the box. Inside was a small bottle with a dangerous label. Zhou Jinru picked it up and opened it carefully. The product name was reactive dust, which is a highly dangerous industrial waste. It can also be used as a weapon. Its only function is to make people angry. Ordinary people become infected.
Acute infection in emergencies has a certain probability of causing the infected person to die on the spot.
This bottle of active dust seems to be produced by a large Colombian military contractor. In other words, this Zarak is just like his race, a rat that smuggles military equipment?
"That's it for today, the stall is closed. Goodbye everyone!"
The Zarak people were unwilling to stay for even a moment, quickly packed up the stall and the remaining boxes, and disappeared into the night as if running away.
Xiao Ke asked curiously: "Doctor?"
"It's okay. Give this bottle of active dust to Pith when you get back. She knows how to deal with it."
"good."
It seems that the Colombians' infiltration of Sargon is far from being as simple as it appears on the surface. Even in the dreams of the Pero people, they can be seen doing whatever they want.
When the two people returned to the station, they found that the operators were gathered together. There was a huge safe in the middle, and they seemed to be discussing how to open it.
"Doctor and Xiaoke are back?"
"Well, what are you looking at?"
Outcast pointed to the safe: "The Bad Guy brought us a batch of supplies, but the aircraft was damaged before, and there is something wrong with the combination lock of the safe and it cannot be opened."
