Chapter 225 Waste Utilization
As the two world fragments were connected, the map of the Fortress Town was expanded again.
The terrain of the Ranch Town is very good, with forests, grasslands and even a small mountain.
Various animals are raised in different terrains according to their different habits.
Fat piglets, cows grazing leisurely, chickens and ducks with bright feathers, and fish ponds that have just been cleaned...
It can be said that this small piece of heaven is like a small zoo, and every animal is well raised.
No wonder Wang Youfu and his team can enjoy the Internet dividend. Just to keep these free-range animals clean and healthy, God knows how much effort they have put in.
After the addition of this ranch, the map of the entire Fortress Town has become a clover shape.
The largest leaf is of course the original Fortress Town, and the smaller leaf is composed of other small fragments that have been incorporated.
The last medium-sized leaf is naturally the Ranch Town that has just been incorporated.
At this time, both the residents of the Fortress Town and the Ranch Town were immersed in joy.
In addition to the victory, people's joy was mostly due to a rain, a light rain a few days ago.
Before, the sky of the Fortress Town would only show the monotonous alternation of the sun and the moon, rarely seeing clouds, and no wind, let alone rain, which was completely impossible.
After experiencing the merger of multiple small world fragments, in addition to a lot of different terrains and landscapes, even the weather system of the Fortress Town began to become more real.
But as more and more world fragments were merged, it actually rained a few days ago!
Although it stopped soon, it gave the survivors a shot of adrenaline...
It gave them a glimmer of hope to restore the past!
If more and more world fragments can be merged, or even all the world fragments are collected, does it mean that a world can be pieced together again! ?
Under such a possibility, every successful merger will boost everyone's confidence, except for a certain unsatisfied 10th-level awakener.
…
In the distance, in a patch of grass far away from the bustling crowd, the white-haired young man was staring at the bustling crowd… His brows were tightened, and his face was full of unhappiness.
This white-haired young man was a survivor brought by the "High-rise World" when it was merged into the Fortress Town.
At that time, the others who were with them had already integrated into the Fortress Town, and some even began to use their specialties and even took on various positions.
However, only the white-haired young man was "excluded" to the ranks of cleaners who could only do physical work.
Of course, it was his self-proclaimed "exclusion".
Although he was a "10th-level strongman", this strength was not really strong in the Fortress Town.
In addition, he was unwilling to patrol and had no other skills, so he could only be assigned to be a cleaner in the end.
After all, before the doomsday, he was just a social idler who was just passing the time. After the doomsday, he suddenly felt the feeling of being a superior person, and even became the actual ruler of the "High-rise World" for a time because of his strong strength.
Although the food, clothing and daily necessities were far inferior to those of the civilized era, and even water was somewhat scarce...but the more turbulent the environment, the more attractive he became as he became stronger.
He could not be said to be able to ask for anything from other survivors, but it was almost the same.
But what about now?
When order was restored and someone provided real prosperity and stability, the attractiveness of the white-haired young man naturally plummeted.
Not only did the female survivors completely break off their relationship with him, but even his two little followers joined the well-paid guard team.
Only the former strongest king was extremely unhappy.
"Tsk, what's there to be happy about? It's so boring." The white-haired young man bit a piece of grass, held his hands behind his head, and looked at the crowd in the distance with disdain.
However, he himself did not realize how envious his expression was.
"Huh? White hair? Why are you here? There's a dinner party over there today, and there's a whole roasted pig! Don't you want to try it?"
Suddenly, a voice sounded behind the white-haired young man.
"No, you can't call me..." The white-haired young man turned around word by word, and then he suddenly stopped talking when he saw the person behind him.
Standing behind him was Zhang Jinyu with shoulder-length hair.
She was holding a huge bamboo basket filled with washed potatoes with skins.
"I, I didn't know it was you..." The white-haired young man stuttered.
"Sorry, I heard they all call you Baimao... So what's your name?" Zhang Jinyu asked.
"Uh, just call me Baimao." The white-haired young man clenched his fists, "You... I..."
"They said you were in a bad mood recently, so it's a good time to relax during today's celebration - there will be a finale of beer in the evening!"
Zhang Jinyu smiled at him and continued to walk forward with a large basket of potatoes.
The white-haired young man looked at her back, opened his mouth wide as if he wanted to say something, but the words were completely unable to come out.
At this moment, Zhang Jinyu suddenly turned around, her long hair shining in the afterglow of the sun: "What are you waiting for? Why don't you catch up?"
"Come, come!" The white-haired young man followed involuntarily, peeking at Zhang Jinyu's profile from time to time.
Her face was as fair and healthy as ever, without makeup, and her eyebrows had just the right lines, not a cookie-cutter beauty.
"Zhao Lili said that you haven't contacted them recently and are sulking alone... Why? Is it because work is not going well?"
Zhang Jinyu seemed to notice his gaze, and then asked in a normal tone.
"That bitch...cousin, we have had some conflicts recently." The white-haired young man spoke temporarily.
"Why?" Zhang Jinyu continued to ask.
"...Hmph, they...she thinks I'm not strong enough." The white-haired young man said in a mocking tone, "There are countless strong people in Fortress Town. What's wrong with me, a mere ordinary person with level 10 enhancement?" Are you qualified to play with them?”
Although he said that he was an ordinary person, he obviously didn't think so in his heart.
"No, Fortress Town needs awakened people very much. Every awakened person is the most important force, and you are no exception."
Zhang Jinyu turned her head and looked at him seriously.
"I don't want to be cannon fodder! You don't know how scary those...those things are!!" The white-haired young man seemed to have remembered some bad memories, and his face was filled with fear, "I met a chicken before... …a 2-story-tall chicken!”
"That fucking thing looks like a Tyrannosaurus rex from the Jurassic!"
"No, it's much more powerful than the Tyrannosaurus Rex! Even that feather gun can't penetrate it!"
"The awakened person is nothing in front of it...it's all one bite at a time!"
"..."
I don’t know whether it’s because he hasn’t spoken for a long time and he’s so eager to talk, or because he’s been holding back a lot of complaints recently and has no place to release them, or because Zhang Jinyu’s presence made him open up his chat box...
In short, through the words of the white-haired young man, we can learn something about what he has experienced and what he has experienced in the "high-rise world".
These things are not a secret, after all, most of the other survivors in the "World of High-rise Buildings" still remember those horrific memories.
In the past, the "high-rise world" was really full of people and vast land.
But with the appearance of a spirit, the entire "high-rise world" was almost destroyed.
That monster is not a chicken, but actually a mutated Yuanbao pigeon.
It's just that the completely different body shape and feathers make it difficult for non-professionals to identify it, but one of the survivors of "High-rise World" provided key evidence, proving that the monster was an ornamental gold ingot that their boss once raised. pigeon.
In the end, the staff group of Fortress Town also accepted this statement.
After all, "High-rise World" is located in a business district in a prosperous part of the city. It is almost impossible for someone to raise chickens, but it is very reasonable to raise Yuanbao pigeons.
However, this spirit that was killed from the "World of High-rise Buildings" did not seem to appear in the previous battle that besieged the fortress town.
It has never even been marked by existential radar.
The staff speculated that the Yuanbao pigeon spirit should be relatively weak and had been devoured by other stronger spirits.
If this kind of monster appeared in Fortress Town, it wouldn't even be enough for Zhang Jinyu to kill alone... But such a weak monster killed all the awakened people in the "High-rise World", and in the end only the white-haired young man himself was left.
"...Don't you believe it?"
The white-haired young man who had talked a lot suddenly became excited when he found that Zhang Jinyu didn't respond.
"I believe it." Zhang Jinyu said softly.
"No, you don't believe it! The expression on your face hasn't changed... you feel disdainful! You! You look down on me!!"
The white-haired young man roared.
"I didn't." Zhang Jinyu stopped, turned around and looked at the white-haired young man seriously, "I will not look down on any survivors, because everyone has made great efforts to survive to this day."
"To look down on other survivors is to look down on those thousands of people who have sacrificed their lives, and to look down on that monument."
Zhang Jinyu said calmly.
The monument she was referring to was the Monument to the Unknown Heroes at South Five Fortresses.
However, the white-haired young man couldn't listen at all.
"Damn it!"
"You bitches don't know anything!"
The white-haired young man's eyes gradually glowed red, and Zhang Jinyu's expression gradually became serious.
Putting the potato basket aside, Zhang Jinyu said coldly: "Calm down! You have to calm down... It is illegal to use abilities in the safe zone! Your previous conflicts with other survivors have already made your settlement points negative. If you continue to cause trouble, you will be expelled..."
"Calm down! Now!"
Zhang Jinyu said sharply.
"Damn it, I can't stand your condescending attitude! Why do you do that! Bah! I want to weigh you in!"
The white-haired young man ignited flames in his hands and suddenly attacked Zhang Jinyu.
"well."
Zhang Jinyu sighed and seemed to suddenly become less interested.
"Bitch! You look down on me! You are still looking down on me!!"
The white-haired young man who originally just wanted to teach her a lesson suddenly made a killing move.
However……
"bump--"
Just as he rushed up, he flew back.
Zhang Jinyu kicked him in the neck, knocking him unconscious. His whole body fell to the ground like a piece of wood.
"It really failed...why?" Zhang Jinyu frowned.
"It's probably your careless attitude that damaged his self-esteem... After all, the characteristic he awakened is very unstable."
Xiao Jian suddenly fell from the sky - it turned out that he had been guarding in the sky just now, watching the situation here through the [Break the Confusion] characteristic.
Originally, Xiao Jian was going to be pulled by Zhang Weidong to talk a few words, but Zhang Jinyu, who found that the dissatisfied white-haired young man was wandering outside, ran to pull Xiao Jian over to help her sit in the back...
But in fact, her strength can already crush the white-haired young man, whether in terms of combat experience or panel attributes, it is an all-round crushing.
But...
Since she asked so, it happened that Xiao Jian was also a little worried about speaking in such formal occasions, so he ran over to watch the fun.
"...What is his characteristic?"
Zhang Jinyu looked at Xiao Jian and asked curiously.
"Uh, it's called... [Angry Fire], the effect is that it can summon fire to strengthen normal attacks, and the negative effect is that it will make his emotions unstable."
Xiao Jian scratched his head. This was the first time he saw a characteristic with a negative effect.
Before this, he thought that only those relics would have various negative characteristics... For example, his [Wolf Fang Necklace] is like this. Although it provides 2 points of attack power, the negative characteristic is that it wants to howl twice when seeing the moon.
Although Xiao Jian is now very calm about howling at the moon, it is still a bit embarrassing if he does it in front of other people.
Therefore, Xiao Jian will probably not wear that necklace when he is not in combat.
"Negative effect? Is there any way to alleviate it?" Zhang Jinyu frowned.
"Almost impossible... Unless there are similar relics that use positive characteristics to offset it." Xiao Jian replied.
"Then there is no way." Zhang Jinyu shook his head.
"... What do you want to do? Do you really want to exile him?" Xiao Jian was a little curious about this question.
"There is nothing you can do about it." Zhang Jinyu sighed, and then told Xiao Jian the whole story.
In fact, the reason is very simple, that is, the Fortress Town lifted the temporary martial law.
Yes, "temporary" martial law.
On the day when the doomsday began, it was "temporary" until the other world fragments began to merge.
After all, more and more people will join the big family of Fortress Town in the future.
But not everyone is a warrior, and it is impossible for everyone to have the same interests.
This leads to the fact that the military control mode of Fortress Town is easy to cause conflicts to accumulate.
The solution is actually very simple, that is, to lift the military control and then legislate.
In a sense, this is a big event, and it is even the beginning of "re-establishing civilized order" that will be highlighted in history books.
However, for the current residents of Fortress Town, this is just a big-character poster, nothing more.
Although the current laws are very simple, violating each one may be severely punished.
After all, heavy punishments are used in troubled times.
As for unstable factors such as the white-haired young man, it is naturally good if you can fight for it, and if you can't fight for it, you must solve it as soon as possible.
So unfortunately, the white-haired young man personally ruined his stable life.
"Where are you going to exile him to?" Xiao Jian asked.
"Maybe it's a fragment of an uninhabited world, maybe somewhere else... What do you think?"
"When the verdict comes down, I can take him away..." Xiao Jian suddenly felt that this person might be able to be recycled.
