Borderland.

For the vast majority of ordinary people who can understand the border information, this place is similar to a place that is better than the top and more than the bottom. It does not have the absolute order of a domain, but it is slightly more orderly than a place of chaos.

But putting aside the appearance and talking about the essence, this kind of unowned place is still a place of chaos.

Just because they are adjacent to one or more domains, under the needs of one or all parties, they choose to make the border areas not too chaotic and have a minimum order.

However, it cannot be too orderly, otherwise it will not be beautiful if we create a heaven.

This situation of feeding you when you are about to starve to death, and cutting off food when you gain weight makes the border land always full of contradictions.

The attitude of the people who belong to the territory towards these border people is mostly filled with overlooking, contempt or fear. They feel that they are looking down from above and despise these people. But when the border people reveal their tough characters, They will feel fear again when they encounter the unruly style that belongs to this place.

Therefore, the attitude of the people without a domain towards the people with a domain is full of sharpness. They will try their best to exploit everything in turn, as long as they find the right opportunity, like hungry wolves.

However, no one grew up vegetarian.

They understand the essence of conflict transfer.

If the practices and attitudes of the domain make the people of the border land feel indifferent and arrogant, they will accept it happily and without hesitation, and continue to implement it.

Subsequently, the backhand was on the border, creating real blood-sucking capital groups and armed forces.

Let the people of No Country realize that the Kingdom of Heaven is far away.

On one side are groups and forces that actually harm their interests.

Every domain is not afraid of rebellion in the borderlands.

They just hate excessive chaos, which affects their various progress.

What can make one domain vigilant is always the intervention of another domain.

From the perspective and thinking of each domain, not to mention neighbors, even if a domain across the horizon wants to take over a land that it does not belong to, other domains will feel unwilling to do so.

Then there is an idea, similar to: We all agreed to work together, how can you go to make the first pot of gold in your life? No, you have to die with me, I will kill you!

Therefore, the most indispensable thing for the border areas of each domain and the chaotic land not far away is the intervention of relevant departments from other domains, trying to interfere with the progress of other domains.

Of course, this approach is not entirely supported by enough food. The unowned land is always the best soil for absorbing resources and cultivating huge profits. Not to mention that each place has different advantages. A single population is the best resource. .

All in all, being able to wreak havoc on others while also making a fortune and defeating a few people is a good business that everyone in the field will choose to do as long as they have the energy and time.

The complex situation makes the order of the border land full of turmoil. I hope that this kind of thing will always be in its infancy.

This is Zuo Dao's summary of the beginning of "Knives Out" and his view on the land of no one.

And the neighboring regions have such complicated attitudes and practices toward border lands and other lands——

It all boils down to one key point: it is a secret device, a functional secret device specifically designed for this type of purpose. ….

For the domain of this world, the inclusion of a place does not depend on the so-called referendum, let alone the uncertain public sentiment, but depends on a higher level of judgment. It needs to be covered by a secret ritual in order to change from having no affiliation to having one.

Between Zuo Dao's strange transformation of understanding and Mrs. Wen Yue's crude explanation, it was likened to——

You need to change the "soul" here into your own shape first, and then consider its "body".

Before that, no matter how rotten the body was, it was harmless.

This is inseparable from the secret ceremony.

The key point of transforming a land without territory into a land of belonging lies in the secret ceremony, and how the secret ceremony takes root and completely covers depends on special prerequisites, and this condition does not make a place perfect, but has but requires other factors.

And this factor will create the final conditions for incorporating a certain place based on this type of functional secret instrument and the requirements of the target place. Only by meeting various categories can the secret instrument be activated and coverage completed.

During this period, any loss of layout or major core steps will cause the progress to be cleared.

Therefore, the collection of each piece of land has always been a huge and laborious project.

This is no longer something that can be judged by the concept of good and evil. The efforts made, the sins caused, and the great achievements made are just an episode. They are important but not that important.

Bahamut, who went to the left side this time, received the Wilderness Operation mission, which can only be regarded as an early stage, and it can't even be considered as a layout to enter the formal process, at least that's what the hints were.

This kind of instruction can be used freely, and it is based on the premise of counterattacking the Aleman domain——

It also gave Zuo Dao a little bit of expectation.

Of course, it's certainly not because you have the resources to do damage.

Definitely not.

Zuo Dao thought so.

The sunlight at the end made Zuo Dao and Elsa squint slightly.

The passage through the Border Management Bureau has already made the two of them full of complaints.

If you don’t know, you’d think your family is playing an escape room—the wrong way.

So spooky...so spooky...so spooky - Elsa.

In front, an operator wearing a border agent uniform was waiting.

It seemed that she was a young woman, and Zuo Dao seemed to be able to find some traces of Asagi on her body.

"Hello, my name is Chao Ya. This is your ID. Please keep it safe." Chao Ya smiled, and after the two of them approached, he handed the ID to them respectively.

"Thank you." Zuo Dao and Elsa thanked them.

Zuo Dao opened his ID photo, which contained his profile picture and code.

What is quite interesting is that their entry and exit column is not printed, only a string of codes.

It was obvious that Director Asagi had exerted all his efforts to keep their whereabouts to a minimum.

But what's even more interesting is that there is an unknown card tucked inside the document.

When Zuo Dao happened to discover this place, Chao Ya whispered:

"After you two went out, you followed the regular departure personnel and followed the signs. About three miles away from us, there was a rest stop set up by our Huayu.

“There are basic medical facilities and residential areas there, as well as a station to the border city-states. If you have personal privacy needs, it is recommended to go to the car dealership. These are the main functional areas.…

"With this card, you can check in directly at all hotels. The same goes for medical supplies that need to be replenished. If you go to other city-states, you can take a ride directly through this card. Our Border Management Bureau also has an authorized car dealership, and Mr. Zuodao can pick up the car directly. "

Zuo Dao understood it and didn't talk too much. After Chao Ya said goodbye, he took Elsa to the left and went down the stairs.

Walking down, you can see a bustling crowd heading forward. A considerable number of people will look at the roadside signs nervously from time to time, and most of them are those who are familiar with the road.

But these people all have the same behavior. There is a hidden vigilance in their eyes or behavior, and they are wary of strangers around them. This makes the crowd not crowded, but in separate groups.

Like Zuo Dao and the others, the combination of a boy and a little girl also attracted many strange looks.

Zuo Dao had no idea about this kind of scene. Elsa's words, she didn't use conscious communication to talk to herself, proved that the other party was also calm.

Rather, Zuo Dao is looking forward to something happening.

You have already left the country, so you should be a little more sinister, right?

After all, the people in Huayu are too simple and simple.

If the same rules were followed overseas, the leftists would have no choice but to act with embarrassment.

Walking with the crowd, the scenery beyond the border is also unspeakable.

In addition to the road with guidance signs, construction has also been carried out to keep the ten-meter-wide road surface flat.

The world outside both sides of the road is only desolate loess gravel, and there are not even weeds. Looking at it, the entire terrain is flat, and there is not even a small hill in sight on the left road.

"To be honest, this landscape doesn't look like it was formed naturally.

"But as for artificial traces, no traces have been found.

"Some kind of mysterious power?" Zuo Dao wondered in his mind.

While drifting for nearly half an hour, in the distance, a small town that resembled the scenery of the western part of the world appeared in the distance——

"Hecarim Rest Stop..." Elsa looked up at the content and read softly.

"It seems like this is it." Zuo Dao nodded.

Walking into what looked like a small town, Zuo Dao and Elsa discovered that there was a whole other world.

Most of the crowd, after entering here, went everywhere with purpose.

Those who stayed looked at the billboards erected everywhere.

Or rather——

"A flyer?" Zuo Dao brought Elsa closer to take a look.

Zuo Dao's eyelids began to beat gradually, and Elsa was doing everything as usual.

"Do you want to make your brain more flexible?

"Cheng Lamen Company launches new wetware, allowing you to have a great and talented external brain!"

"For details, contact the business office on the southeast side of the service area——"

"..."

"What should I do if I don't have enough physical strength? Come on, please help me!"

"Meilong Human Body Secret Company launches human body modification services...sources are selected to prevent rejection..."

"..."

『Eagle Eye Security Company takes over the business

"The main business scope is security escort services for various city-states in Hecarim.

"Our company has complete armed forces and mysterious abilities to eliminate all hidden dangers for customers. 』

"..."

“The style of painting in this world is gradually not quite right——”….

Zuo Dao shook his head and walked out with Elsa. At this time, a spiritual light quietly appeared in his eyes.

——Spiritual vision.

In the past, one of the necessary skills for practitioners in the world was usually called Wangqi. Due to historical circumstances, it could be called anything.

The prerequisite for this ability is that the practitioner has spiritual power. However, since knowing that there is a problem with the spiritual energy in this world, Zuo Daolian has rarely borrowed the spiritual power of the little paper man, including letting the little paper man use it himself. in this way.

When the little paper man's spiritual vision opened, Zuo Dao was looking at the people who were looking at the various billboards going around, and he thought as expected:

"Whether it's due to the restrictions on mysterious abilities or the rampant human trafficking, the fact that a rest stop under the jurisdiction of the Chinese Territory is actually allowed to exist shows that the deeper you go, the more disorderly it becomes.

"Among the people who read those flyers, those who go to so-called places where they can learn mysterious powers are basically in good physical condition. Judging from the spiritual vision, they are also somewhat wealthy. They are obviously worth a lot of money. Most likely because The controls and channels in China are too strict and I chose to come here.

"So, maybe this hole was deliberately exposed by Huayu. Once they go out, it will be more difficult to come back. Even if they can get in, they will be given special attention.

"Those who remove human organs, some are healthy, and some have physical problems. These people generally have a messy aura. In the words of the past world, they are bad people."

After roughly figuring out the situation at this rest stop and the main reasons for the people walking out of the border, Zuodao squeezed Elsa's hand.

Elsa looked up sideways. They didn't speak, but they were already communicating with each other.

"Ms. Elsa, do you want to rest here for a day, or go directly?" asked Zuo Dao.

"Is there something wrong here, Mr. Zuo Dao?" ” Elsa replied, saying that she depends on the other person’s opinion.

"No, we have nothing to do here at the rest stop. We set out lightly this time, and we have brought some weapons and medicines. Normally, it is enough to cope with it. Fuzi is on the 16th

The city-state awaits us. 』

[By the way, the best one for reading and listening to books is @@, install the latest version. 】

"Then let's go~" Elsa said.

"Let's go to the dealership to pick one up. The bus will take some time." ” The leftists have no objection.

After deciding what to do, they looked at the rest stop signs. There were official rest stop signs in the four areas of the medical accommodation bus station, so it was not difficult for them to find them.

After driving around for a while, when they arrived at the car dealership, they discovered that there were not a few people who chose to buy vehicles in other areas, and the types of cars here were not only sold in certain categories.

Driving around with Elsa on the left lane, it feels more like a second-hand car market.

In terms of price, Zuodao is not too sensitive. The memory of the previous owner has little knowledge about the vehicle. But when I came to this world, I was forced to get involved in a bunch of mysterious events. The limited time was used to supplement the relevant knowledge, and If you are playing tricks with those old guys, you will naturally have a bad idea about the car market.

The situation on Elsa's side is similar. She has just been reborn. Although it is not clear how old Elsa must be when she takes the mental test now, with the blessing of Elsa's memory, when she is not receiving information, Yu Wen can Mrs. Yue's performance at home is not bad, but her expression is obviously not sensitive to vehicle prices.

Even so, looking at the people who came out in the same batch, they were arguing about the price. It seemed that the price was not very suitable. Fortunately, there was a magical little card. Zuo Dao led Elsa into the room with the Huayu logo. Car dealership.

Not long after, an inconspicuous car drove out of the rest stop and turned into the road jointly established by Huayu and Hecarim.

In the car, Zuo Dao sat in the passenger seat and rested with his eyes closed, while the little paper people were busy controlling the car.

Elsa, who was also drowsy in the back seat, opened her eyes slightly, feeling a little worried.

——Mr. Zuo Dao, is there really no problem with this operation?

It's so cold inside the car... but the air conditioner isn't turned on——.
