Chapter 155
"In fact, there are a lot of these things to say, but it's just a little bit of hard work, and you can always carve it out if you take the time, and the real difficulty is the supply. An auction house, even if people give you face to come to the market, but you always have enough things to get your hands on, the goods are not good, and other things are just superficial bullshit, no matter how carefully crafted. β
Wang Zhong listened attentively to him, he didn't know much about business, but the reason was clear, the so-called source of goods from the auction house would definitely not be an ordinary thing.
He remembered the fifth-dimensional world he had entered before, and last time Mu Zike had said that there were a lot of good things there, and the 'good things' of the fifth-dimensional world should be considered good things if they were put in Ma Dong's auction house......, right? It's not a lot of portions, but you might be able to try to help.
"My Lao Tzu is fully supportive this time, I thought he was so simple to let go before, he was really old, and his heart was old, but he just wanted to see if I would stand up. In terms of supply, my son is now in charge, and the background of the fifth uncle of my family is definitely incomparable, but my father has been working in the auction house for so many years, and he has a hobby of collecting, and he always has some good goods to save more or less, and this time he is ready to take out all this bit of family money. In addition, I spent a lot of money to hire two expeditions to go to the Carozan Exclusion Zone in the north to see if I could try my luck and get something good......"
The forbidden area is often a shortcut for many people to get rich, although there are great dangers, but there are also huge profits, the soul power crystallization of powerful high-level mutant beasts, all kinds of bizarre natural treasures that breed under the power of the rich dimension, and even the cubs of many mutant beasts that can be domesticated, these are the darlings of the auction.
"The cost of forming an expedition is too great," Speaking of this, Ma Dong felt a little guilty: "In order to help me win this game, the old man has pressed all the coffins, this time it is not as good as before, if I really lose, then I am afraid that it will be a problem for my old man to support the elderly, think about this, in fact, I feel quite sorry for my father, it should be my own business...... But it depends on luck, if you are lucky, the expedition team may have a big harvest, and if you are unlucky, that is, the whole team will be wiped out and there will be no return. Anyway, let's do our best to obey the destiny of heaven. β
Seeing Ma Dong's very emotional appearance, Wang Zhong weighed it in his heart, and finally said: "I may be able to find some good things here, but I can't guarantee it." β
"Huh?" Ma Dong froze.
"So, you can prepare me ten cans of Coke, the one that is a little more packaged, and then get ...... Well, six packs, six packs of hardcover ham sausages. β
Ma Dong knows Wang Zhong well, and even now he even knows the identity of the king of the mouth, but if Wang Chong can get something very special and high-grade good, this really can't be expected too much, of course, the brother's heart must be the point.
"No problem," he smiled and rubbed his hands, "when?"
"Before I leave Tianjing. β
"It's on me. β
Coke and hardcover ham sausage are nothing, pack them well, at least look good, and make your two friends happy.
It's a pity that bringing ten cans of Coke and six packs of ham sausages is already the limit, the dimensional space magic circle taught by Aeolos last time, the carrying capacity is quite limited, Wang Chong calculated a few times, and estimated that he can probably only bring such a little thing, that kind of drawing and symbols, is another system entirely, just like a person who is used to gravity, suddenly went to space, and wants to adapt and understand, it's really not a sentence or two, not to mention that no one has explained yet, it completely depends on Wang Chong's own comprehension, fortunately, the essence is soul power.
So there were a bunch of extra in Captain Wang's backpack, and after estimating the time, the next meeting he and Muzi had agreed with them should be when he was in the Kapuffel training class.
On the 27th, the team was finally about to set off, and the official training course began on the first of the next month, but it took two or three days to get past Tianjing and take the railroad tracks.
There were a lot of people who came to see them off, Principal Green was definitely coming, Ma Dong was here, and several other people like Lei Leigh, Colby, and Heyman, whose parents were in Tianjing, also came.
Leigh Leigh and Colby's parents are both acting normally, and they also went out for the college in the division competition last year, and although they were eliminated after a few games, this kind of thing has been experienced, and it is exaggerated by's side.
Heyman's mother took her daughter's hand and kept saying things like it was cold on Kapuffel's side, and you should pay attention to wearing more clothes, back and forth, over and over again, talking and talking, and tears flowed down her eyes, making it seem like life and death, which made Heyman blush and stunned the others around her.
Of course, in fact, they all understand.
In this era, many ordinary people stay in the same city from birth to old age, and the feat of crossing the city has nothing to do with ordinary people's families,'s family background is not bad, but it is just good, plus the mother is a little sensitive, and it is actually reasonable to regard her daughter to go to Cabo Field College as a great difficulty.
So all kinds of explanations, all kinds of preaching, in the nine-person team, the four-member group of the Strange Society was relatively leisurely, Emilyel had an expression that was used to sitting on the rails, and Wang Chong, Gray and even Barron focused all their attention on the armed rails.
On the outside, the armed rails seem to be similar to the green trains that hauled goods in the Sunny Age, and the rusty hull surface is carved with traces of wind and frost and history, but there is an incomparably heavy metal feeling inside and out.
This is a body made of a new type of synthetic steel synthesized by the Federation after the Dark Ages, after all, there are wildernesses everywhere that radiate, and ordinary steel in the Sunlight Age cannot be exposed to such an environment for a long time, and now this rusty is only a superficial chemical reaction reaction, but as long as you gently knock it with your hand, you can hear that kind of 'ding ding ding', extremely crisp knocking sound.
The real core is still in the kinetic energy of the armed rails, and the use of 'composite polydimensional regenerative radiation energy', that is, 'regenerative radiant energy'.
To put it simply, it's like using the solar energy of the Sunlight Age, which is completely based on natural resources, but the Convergence Radiant Energy uses the ubiquitous radiation and dimensional power in the wilderness, and the transformation process is a bit complicated, but that's it, and this is one of the major technologies that the Caesar Empire has always wanted to get and is working on with all its might.
The space in the carriage is not spacious and bright, but it is also orderly and functional.
This is an ordinary hard sitting, I heard that there is a VIP room in front, not only can you lie down to sleep but also have a special entertainment area, of course, everyone will chat and listen, you can sit on the armed railroad track through more than a dozen cities, look at the scenery along the way, this kind of treatment everyone is already very content. The transportation in Tianjing City is convenient, it is a large transfer station for the armed rails, many people get off here, and the carriage where the team is located seems a little empty, and the foursome of the Strange Wonderful Society automatically sat on the inside, leaving all the windows to the seniors who came to see them off.
The seniors all tried their best to tense their faces, suppressing the excitement on their faces, listening to the elders earnestly preaching, until the railroad tracks started and waved their hands outside by the window for a long time, and the whole carriage suddenly fell completely silent.
"Liberated!oh yes, guys, get high!" was the first to scream, she was almost crying by her mother just now, she finally got away from the terrifying contagion of her mother's great demon king, you have to be high!
"I decide!" Leigh pulled her huge backpack and a lot of assortment snacks: "I don't lose weight in the car for three days!"
"You can't play your own game, you have to do group activities!" Mirami pulled the banner next to him: "We must unite! More people are fun, Wang Chong, you are the captain, you come to think of a group activity!"
Everyone looked at him expectantly, and Wang scratched his head: "Let's play cards, come to three volunteers, the others will automatically stand in line, and the losing side will collectively post a small note!"
"I'm on a team with Brother Wang Chong!" Emiliel jumped to Wang Chong's side as soon as possible, and Barron also came over with a smile: "I also choose the captain!"
"I'll do a little bit of this, and I'll play cards. "Colby is as precious as ever, in the team, this guy is always the easiest to ignore one, but his teacher in the Assassin Branch once said that what can not be noticed is actually the real assassin, Colby's temperament is very suitable for the path of assassins, but the bloodline, talent, family background and all aspects are just ordinary people, there is no good foundation and environment, but it is a pity that he is born an assassin's heart.
"Is it for upgrade? Scarlett smiled and got involved, and Mirami immediately became her teammate.
"Damn, you dare to play cards in front of me?" pulled up his sleeves: "Don't you know that my sister is the number one gambling god of Tianjing Academy? Lose to you!
"Okay, senior sister. Gray is actually the most unassertive, known as "Sunshine heartthrobs never reject men".
Then there was the 'desperate' card war.
suddenly found out very sadly that his title of the God of Gambling was too narrow, among the four people, only Scarlett was slightly weaker than her, but only slightly weaker, plus the element of luck, she lost even less than herself.
Wang Zhong this guy should not play cards much, but you can't stand his brain melon seeds are easy to use, playing cards is actually a comprehensive quality embodiment of memory, logical ability and other aspects, four decks of poker, two hundred and eight cards, this guy in the case of understanding the rules, can quickly calculate the cards in everyone's hand, and eight or nine do not leave ten, and he plays cards, you basically have no secrets in your hands, played for a long time that guy only lost three handfuls.
But the most terrifying thing is the usually inconspicuous Colby, this ......
thinks that if Colby is willing, this guy can directly make a living from gambling, Wang Chong's kind of memory is nothing more than strong memory, logical ability, and strong card counting, but the number of cards can still be felt, and the feeling of seeing clearly. But Colby played cards, it was completely impressive, all kinds of small means, all kinds of acting skills, Wang Chong's loss of the three was basically the pit he dug, as for himself, he never lost.
Gray,, Scarlett and Mirami are almost full of notes on their faces, Wang Chong's side, Emily and Barron are also excitedly giving advice, but look at the other people's Colby's side, Lei Li has been bored and ran to the side to eat snacks, the number of paragraphs is too high There is no suspense at all, and there is no need for any dog-headed military division, one person is enough to kill the whole team, the gap is too big.
The journey was undoubtedly joyful, and the first day was relatively relaxed in the car, while playing cards, everyone chatted about all kinds of messy things, and also enjoyed the beautiful scenery along the way.
The windows on the rails are completely closed, and the radiation factor in the air will cause a certain degree of anomaly when traveling at high speeds, which is nothing to most new humans, but no one would be happy to have a spark overhead during the journey.
Through the car window, you can enjoy the scenery along the way.
The vast and boundless wilderness has always been the main theme of this world, even in the Hundred Cities Federation, which is known as a highly free continental plate, the coverage area of human cities is less than one percent of the wilderness, most of the wilderness is very depressed and barren, with dead trees and weeds everywhere, and occasionally some lonely mutant beasts can be seen in the field of vision, they vigilantly stare at the roaring armed railroad tracks, feel the surging power when it rushes forward, and then scatter in panic.
Every hundred miles or so, you will see a camp located near the railroad tracks, just like the small camp when Mentor Grace took everyone to the training camp last time, their mission is mainly to clear the mutant beasts that appear within their 100-mile area, kill them or drive them out of the range of the armed railroad tracks. Of course, the combat effectiveness of this kind of camp is generally not strong, it is composed of ordinary soldiers who have not cast a heroic soul or even ordinary people who have not awakened, usually drive some weak mutant beasts, and the days are quite leisurely, but if you encounter a particularly powerful mutant beast or a huge herd of beasts, it will be a disaster for the camp, if you are lucky, report to the higher authorities in time, request to send a professional army elite, and then hide better, and you can survive, but if you are unlucky, you are targeted by these high-level mutant beasts or beast groups, then they often have to be wiped out without waiting for support to comeγ
When everyone came here, they saw a camp that was destroyed not long ago, there were troops stationed there, it seemed that the root cause of the disaster had been solved, and the camp was also being re-selected for construction, but the pile-up of human corpses that had been burned to black, the camp that was like being ** by a giant man 10,000 times, and even the tiles were no longer complete, still made people feel shocking when they fell in their eyes.
No one spoke when they passed through that journey, and humanity was far from being able to control the Earth, and since the Dark Ages, humanity has not been at the top of the food chain, even on Earth. Idle and happy days may only exist in the academy, the real wilderness, the real forbidden area or the real world, the cruelty is outrageous, these are all things that everyone must face in the future, maybe one day, you will become one of the pile of charred corpses.
