"I told you, you won't make it."

Ollie looked haggard, staring blankly at the sky, muttering muttering.

"What I can't do, you can't do."

The sky was blue, as clear as the sky he had seen on the day he first came into this world, clean without a trace of floating clouds.

Ollie squinted and fell on his back.

Closing his eyes, he seemed to be able to see that the guy who had stolen his flute was locked in a cage like a prisoner.

"My stupid doppelganger, do you know why you've failed? Because you are me, how can my fate be different from yours? ”

……

"The first problem to be solved is food. The consumption of food is far more powerful than I imagined, and even if it is frugal, it is almost to the limit. Not to mention the future, even tonight, food has become a problem, and the defensive battle is too physically demanding. ”

Dry bread is not delicious at all, but it is the most tangible thing, because it will not be eaten much, and second, it can replenish even more physical strength than meat.

"It would have been much better if I had been able to switch to bread. It's just that...... The nearest supply depot is also two kilometers away. ”

The location of the supply depot is constantly changing, and it will become more and more distant.

Lin Xun didn't have to choose, so he could only rush to the destination, strive to reach the destination as soon as possible, and leave after changing the bread.

"I hope there are no accidents on the road, otherwise, once the war starts, a lot of time will be wasted."

However, he was afraid of something, and Lin Xun had already seen a figure in the grass when he walked less than five hundred meters.

Those otherworldly people in strange costumes, all with weapons in their hands, seemed to have their eyes on him for a long time.

"The number of men, six, three men and three women, and the weapons were spears and short knives, all cold weapons. The strength level of the six people is below the epic level, and their mental state is relatively bad, and it looks like they have just had a not-so-good night. ”

The other party was looking at him, and he was looking at the other party.

After some eye contact, the other side took the lead and rushed out.

"This is the head sent to the door, if I don't take it, won't I live up to their kindness?" Lin Xun licked his lips, quietly drew his sword, and jumped out, "Dance of Fire!" ”

These six people originally thought that they had encountered a fat sheep wandering in the wild, but they never expected that this "fat sheep" was a gloomy tiger with unfathomable strength.

After Lin Xun used the "Dance of Fire", the attitude of the other side immediately changed one hundred and eighty degrees, and they all put down their weapons, prostrate on the ground, and said to Lin Xun: "My lord, don't kill us, spare our lives, we are very useful!" ”

At this time, Lin Xun originally wanted to directly swing the knife to kill them, but he heard the mechanical female voice sound again: "The other party has surrendered, and it will be automatically divided into your castle residents." You can choose to accept them or let them go. ”

So, the hand holding the knife slowly lowered it again.

Castle dwellers are also useful, and if you can accumulate a certain number of inhabitants after the quest, you can get a higher-level fortress when you return to the game world.

"It's a pity that I'm short of food right now. If you really bring them all back, if nothing else, food will be a big problem, and now that the survival time has been extended by three days, what should be done with them in the future? ”

One of the worst options is to use the inhabitants to exchange for supplies, and the inhabitants who are used for the exchange will become slaves to other castles, or even meat.

"I really can't do this kind of thing by exchanging people for bread, although in this world, this kind of operation is only a very basic operation." Lin Xun sighed secretly, but decided to take them in first.

When these six people heard the news of being taken in, they were all extremely excited and shouted.

"Lord Castle, thank you!"

"Where is the city lord going, let's accompany you!"

"Lord of the Castle ......"

These people all called Lin Xun "Lord of the City", and they all behaved very positively.

When they heard about Lin Xun's destination, one of the men they called "Arnold" stepped forward and knelt down on one knee in front of Lin Xun: "My honorable city lord, the place you are going to is too dangerous, I hope you can allow me to go with you, and allow my companions to stay put." ”

Arnold, who looks like the leader of the six-man team.

He was very tall, but he was so ragged and vegetable-faced. His eyes are firm and gentle, giving people a strong affinity.

"You mean, you want your companions to stay and not go on adventures with them, do you?" Lin Xun didn't care, anyway, he didn't expect these people to follow from the beginning.

Arnold scratched his hair embarrassedly, and said in a low voice: "We have not eaten for three days, and we are barely alive by a plant called vanilla grass, I am still strong, but my companions are already ......"

Lin Xun patted him on the shoulder, signaling that he didn't need to say anything more.

Arnold thought that what he had just said offended him, and kept bowing and apologizing, hoping that he would forgive him for God's sake.

Lin Xun said, "It's okay, your companions can stay and wait for us." If there are more people, the goal is big, and it is not safe in this wilderness, so if you and I go together, it is convenient to act. ”

Hearing Lin Xun say this, Arnold said a lot of grateful words and kept bowing, which made Lin Xun a little embarrassed.

……

"Why don't you all want to talk about that fortress? Is there something wrong with that fortress? ”

On the way to the supply station, Lin Xun talked to Arnold.

Of course, it's about supplies.

"Lord of the City, you don't know. Buying supplies is a very difficult thing, the first thing you need is gold coins, and secondly, you are lucky, and those who are unlucky may only be able to starve to death with gold coins. ”

"What do you mean by that?"

Arnold seemed to remember some painful memories, and his voice trembled: "In this world, materials only exist in the hands of some non-human guys, what they are good at is treachery, and things that happen from time to time when they receive gold coins but do not give them money, and we, as human beings, can only acquiesce to the unlucky, and it is impossible to quarrel with them." ”。

"Didn't you even think about resisting?"

Arnold raised his head and said in a hoarse voice, "No, no one can resist them. In this world, strength is everything. The weak survivors are like caged birds with broken wings, unable to fly out of this damn cage no matter how much they flutter. ”
