Ange is usually just a skeleton. If he were thrown into the wilderness, he would probably either find a place to squat or wander around, just like those ordinary skeletons. If Nigris didn't point at him, he might not even bother to move.
But as long as it involves growing things, his subjective initiative will become super strong. He will immediately ask Dagu where the relay station is, and then run away with the team, leaving behind a bunch of confused refugees and hugging people. Serena from big cats.
Then the big cat also jumped out of Serena's arms, turned around and let out a 'wow' at her, and ran towards Ange, its slightly staggering steps showing its weakness.
Big Bone turned around and let out a 'ouch'. The big cat nodded quickly, jumped onto Big Bone's palm, climbed up along the arm, quickly climbed to the top of Big Bone's head, and lay down there, the flesh and The hair drooped down, covering his head firmly.
Da Gu said with some worry: "You have to be careful, I am too strong and I will break you."
Nigris, who heard this sentence earlier, curled his lips and muttered: "If you can destroy the dimensional beast, then you must be stronger than the Purple Gold Skeleton."
…
The No. 3 relay tower is located 120 kilometers away from the Holy Wall City. According to the coverage area of 40 kilometers, a relay tower will be set up every 40 kilometers to transmit the signals of the communication dominoes. This is the third relay tower. , its owner is called Clint.
After more than six hundred years of operation, a small town has formed near the No. 3 relay tower, with nearly a thousand people living here.
Clint had just finished feeding the relay spirit and walked down slowly. As soon as he reached the bottom of the tower, the housekeeper came up to him and said, "Sir, the old man from the town has just come to visit you."
"Oh? Where is he?"
"I just left," the steward said.
"Did something happen?" Clint asked.
The housekeeper said: "It's still about the salt. All the salt was eaten a few days ago. Now people in the town feel tired more and more easily, and they can't do some heavy work."
"Alas, I have already sent out a purchase request, and I don't know when I will get a response. Please hold on a little longer." Clint said distressedly, but he didn't hold out much hope.
Because salt mainly comes from humans, now that humans have been driven away, this source has been cut off.
Although the humans who retreated hastily would leave behind a lot of supplies, including salt, but if they were to sit back and eat all the salt left behind, and there would be no new sources of supplies, the humans he raised would still die.
Now Clint not only has to consider the issue of salt, he also has to consider whether he can continue to raise more than a thousand people in the town.
What should I do if I can’t keep it? Kill them all? Or let them fend for themselves?
Since Kleint was sent here to preside over Relay Station 3 six hundred years ago, these humans and their ancestors have always relied on him for survival.
Guarding the relay station is a very boring job. You have to stay near the tower at all times. You can't leave too far away, and you can't fall asleep. You can't go to sleep like other undead creatures when you are bored, and you will be dizzy and dark. Get up again so that you don’t feel the passage of time.
They can't, they need to stay awake at all times, feed the relay spirit every day, and let the relay station continue to work. If a relay tower does not work, communications cannot be transmitted.
It's okay to stay sober for a year or two, but as time goes by, you'll be bored to death, and many guys will have psychological problems.
Therefore, the benefits of the relay tower are very good. As long as the relay spirits are well maintained and the relay spirits are not allowed to go on strike, no one will care about you even if you turn over near the relay tower. This is equivalent to being designated as your private territory.
According to the coverage distance of forty kilometers of a relay tower, all the territory within forty kilometers in diameter becomes your territory. This is such a vast area.
According to Clint's self-comfort statement: "If the area I rule is placed on the main plane, it would at least be considered a count."
Of course, if it can be exchanged, let alone the earl, if the main plane gives him a manor, he will be happy to exchange his territory for it.
What should I do if it’s too boring? At first, Klein didn't know what to do, until one day, a farmer came to visit him with his wife and children and asked if he could settle in his territory.
There is a river here that rises every night, making it a very suitable place for farming and settlement.
Kleint, who had been bored for too long, naturally welcomed them and helped them dig wells and build shacks for them to settle down.
Kleinte's enthusiasm spread his reputation from ten to ten, and soon more and more people came to settle here. Slowly, it developed into a small town.
As more and more people settled, Clint found that he was no longer as bored as before. In his free time, he could go to the town to chat with the elders, entertain the children, and even help them build wells, harvest crops, and even stay with them forever. It's fun for everyone to watch the light strips together at night.
Moreover, human beings have a very strong ability to survive. As long as they are given space, they will cultivate their own fields, cultivate food, have children and multiply. In fact, Kleint did not give them any big help. He just allocated a piece of land for them. It slowly turned into a small town.
The only thing humans can't do is probably salt. They can't buy salt and need Clint's help.
It’s a pity that in the current situation, Clint can’t buy salt, and in his foreseeable future, there will be less and less salt, and even other necessities of life will be less and less. By then, the Sunken Land will still be able to Can you afford to raise so many living animals?
It’s really a headache. They have been together for six hundred years. Clint definitely can’t just watch everyone die. If he wants to save everyone, he needs salt and even food.
With years of farming, the food output of the arable land in the town has been declining year by year. In the past few decades, he has already had to buy grain from outside to make up for the gap. If this continues, the food gap will become bigger and bigger.
But it is not easy to expand food production in the Sunken Land. What should we do?
I can't think about it, my soul hurts when I think about it.
The housekeeper suddenly came back and said with a strange expression: "Uh, sir, someone is here to visit."
This housekeeper is a descendant of the first farmer who was taken in by Clint. He and his ancestors have always been Clint's housekeepers. They have seen all kinds of weird undead creatures. Why do they look like this when someone comes to visit?
Clint asked curiously: "Who is it?"
"A goblin."
Goblin? Of course there are goblins in the Sunken Land, those creatures who believe in money and engineering. Wherever there is the smell of gold coins, they are everywhere.
But here in Relay Tower No. 3, there is absolutely no smell of gold coins. Kleint is as poor as a ghost. Except for some soul crystals accumulated over time, he can’t get anything valuable. Therefore, in the past six hundred years, no one has Goblins came to visit him.
Of course, they may not be able to get through. The goblins are mainly concentrated in the human holy wall city.
Clint met the visiting goblin with strong curiosity. The goblin had a warm smile on his face: "I am taking the liberty to visit you. I heard that you need salt? The Silver Chamber of Commerce is here to serve you sincerely, but the human holy wall city has been breached. , Hard currencies such as soul crystals and magic crystals are not easy to use, I wonder if the people in the pavilion are willing to change the payment method?"
After hearing Yin Coin's words, Clint was completely stunned: "Is there such a good thing?"
"Of course, the salt is here. As long as you tell me a feasible method, these all belong to you, because we came to the door after hearing your conversation in the communication domino. My boss hopes to own a domino like you." Private land can be used to grow things." Yin Coin said sincerely and honestly.
As a goblin businessman, Silver Coin has long understood the ability to speak Necromantic to the dead and Aoao to Ange. As soon as he saw Clint, he knew how to deal with such a loyal and honest man.
"Aren't you afraid that I'll snatch it from you?" Clint was shocked when he saw Silver Coin laying out a bag of salt generously. This goblin didn't look very strong. Why was he so careless and not defensive at all? ?
Yin Coin smiled: "Of course I'm not afraid. Unless you only need this bag of salt and don't want it anymore, you won't cut off the supply of salt, and..."
When he said 'and', Yin Coin closed his eyes and said loudly: "Boss, this guy said he wanted to steal our salt!"
As soon as he finished speaking, Clint instantly felt that the aura of the goblin in front of him had changed, and a very terrifying aura fell on him. The next moment, Yin Coin opened his eyes, and the gaze in his eyes seemed to solidify Clint's soul. generally.
I don’t know how long it took, but Klein felt someone shaking his palm in front of his eyes, shaking it, and slapped him on the face. After a few slaps, he finally came to his senses and asked blankly: "Why did you hit me?"
Yin Coin said apologetically: "Sorry, sorry, I'm so sorry. My boss used too much force and hurt you. I'm extremely sorry. This soul crystal is used as compensation. Please don't be offended."
As he spoke, he held Clint's hand and stuffed a soul crystal into his palm.
Clint pinched the soul crystal and slowly came back to his senses. He remembered what happened just now. It seemed that the goblin called his boss, and then glared at himself...
Kleinte was shocked, and the soul crystal in his hand seemed to be hot, and he quickly gave way. Oh my god, the projection came over, and I was confused by the sight of it. What level of existence is this?
Can I ask for this kind of money? Do you want to die? Clint was so frightened. No wonder this goblin casually exposed a bag of salt worth more than gold. How dare he have such a tough backend?
Clint wanted to cry, why would he say such mean words? God, I hope that powerful existence won't take it to heart. I don't have any bad intentions at all, I just want to remind this goblin.
The tearless expression on his face was seen in Yin Coin's eyes, and Yin Coin quickly comforted him: "Don't be anxious, don't be anxious, my boss won't be offended. Take it and make up for it. If you don't take it, you will look down on me."
As he spoke, he forced the soul crystal into Clint's palm.
Soul crystals are not only currency, but also the condensation of soul energy. When absorbed, they can heal the wounds of the soul, which is perfect for Kleinte who was "glared".
If he didn't hold it, he might have to use his soul crystal to treat it later, and the loss would be something he would remember for a long time, which would be detrimental to future interactions.
But the compensation cannot compensate for the things he needs most, such as salt, because salt still needs to be used as a bargaining chip in the next stage of the transaction. If you compensate him now, the rigid demand will be reduced.
Therefore, there are actually many ways to be a businessman.
…
A few hours later, Yin Coin left the relay tower, turned over and rode on a bone horse, and ran away. More than ten kilometers away, Yin Coin rode the bone horse into a ditch.
There are already a bunch of things squatting in the ditch at this moment, including dragons, skeletons, zombies, angels and unicorns.
When Nigris saw the silver coins coming back, he immediately asked: "How was it?"
"It's done. The No. 4 relay tower is now ours. It has been reported and is waiting for the handover. It's the guy who scolded Mr. Ange. He can't wait to leave the relay tower and is urging us to go over and hand over. Yeah." Yin Coin said excitedly.
Nigris was a little dubious: "Is it that simple?"
Silver Coin nodded: "Finding the right direction is as simple as that. We don't know anything about the situation, so we find it difficult. But according to Clint, it's not difficult at all, because few people can stay at the relay station. They all change every few decades, and now there happens to be a guy who doesn’t want to work anymore, so just report it.”
Nigris couldn't help but asked curiously: "How did you come up with the idea of starting from Relay Tower No. 3?"
Yin Coin asked in confusion: "Isn't this a basic operation? He has needs. Starting from the needs, it becomes what he wants from me. If he doesn't have any needs, we can also create needs for him."
"That makes sense. Let's go and hand over the situation and see who the guy who is cursing is."
…
In the wilderness, two bone horses were dragging a carriage at high speed. It suddenly stopped and an undead floated out. After identifying the direction, he got back on the carriage: "We will soon be at the transfer station No. 4."
There was a brazier burning in the carriage, and the flames on the pot formed the face of a demon. If Ange were here, he would definitely recognize the demon who launched the insect plague in the Principality of Montenegro - the Lord of Terror.
"It just so happens that our terrifying ghost has just taken shape and needs a powerful soul to parasitize it. There is nothing more suitable than the relay spirit on the relay tower. While the relay tower is being handed over, we went over and grabbed it. The relay spirit, even the great sage, cannot find out who stole the relay spirit." The Lord of Terror said.
The undead hesitated a little and said: "Are you sure? All relay spirits are connected together. They are essentially a kind of soul and belong to Harvey's people. If we move the relay spirits, Harvey won't be able to find out? Once its thoughts are projected over, I will die miserably."
The Lord of Terror said: "So we have to take advantage of his handover. The relay spirit will be dormant for a short period of time during the handover. No one can control it during that time."
"Really? Why do you, a demon, know these things better than me, the undead?" the undead asked dubiously.
"As long as you are willing to exchange your soul, I will tell you." The devil said in a very seductive voice.
The undead smiled sadly a few times.
The carriage got back on the road and ran towards Relay Tower No. 4.
In the other direction, Luther and Shamara looked at each other in confusion, looking at Lightning carrying five things in front of him. Even the big cat was lying on Lightning's head, holding a horn.
The direction they were heading towards was also Relay Tower No. 4. At this speed, they and the Lord of Terror were likely to meet under the tower.
