Chapter Sixty-Four: The First Arrival in Novis
Walking into the plantation area scattered all over the fields, as far as the eye can see, black crops more than one person tall cover almost all areas.
These black crops are gray-black, similar to rice and wheat, with long, narrow black leaves covering the entire surface, and there is an eerie ghost that enters the Black Forest as you walk through them.
Farmers in the fields wear black uniforms used to identify themselves, and they are constantly busy in the fields.
Some people are wielding sickles to harvest ripe crops, while others are busy spreading bags of faintly fluorescent fine powder evenly in the ground.
Compared to the underground mines, where overseers are constantly urging and fifth-class people who work like machines, these peasants are relatively free, at least no one explicitly forces them to work.
There were even some peasants who were resting, smoking, smoking some kind of cigarette, with a numb and pleasant expression on their faces.
This scene was secretly remembered by Riel, and he kept analyzing all kinds of useful information.
[Single, black crop...... Is it related to the province of Heilin? The production process seems to require some kind of fertilizer-like substance to facilitate production......]
Along the way, Rare found that although these fourth-class citizens had a certain self-awareness compared to those miners, they were not too high, and could only do some basic work and very monotonous relaxation and recreation, and their ability to communicate with each other was weak.
And he also obtained another key piece of information, which is that he does not appear to be publicly wanted.
At least when these fourth-class peasants saw themselves, they didn't react at all, but had a programmatic reflex to Mister, who was walking with them.
Whenever Mister passed by, the peasants would have a look of awe in their eyes, and they would tremble and put down their work and stand still, and would not continue the work at hand until she was completely away.
Mister seems to have been accustomed to this, and the status and function of the pioneers were far from being comparable to those of these peasants.
As long as she has needs, these lowest-level fourth-class citizens have to obediently cooperate with her work, and if something goes wrong, she will report to the association, and the consequences will be unimaginable for these people.
Seeing Riel's thoughtful eyes, Mister thought he was envious of his majesty, pointed to his green vine badge, and said with a smile.
"Ruier-kun, it's fun to be a pioneer, isn't it? Why don't you join our Pioneer Association, with your strength, you can definitely easily pass the assessment! ”
"And after joining, the whole game world can be unhindered, and we can venture around, which is much better than fooling around with those wanderers!"
Riel smiled indifferently, although what the other party said was very reasonable, and most players would definitely accept such an offer without hesitation, but for Riel this is complete nonsense.
Not to mention his current status as a violator, Riel was suspicious of the meaning of the association's existence alone......
However, Riel did not explicitly refuse the other party's kindness verbally, but said it euphemistically.
"I also want to join the association, but my identity at the beginning is a bit problematic, and I am not a legal citizen of the Federation, so I am afraid that I will not be able to pass the membership review."
Unexpectedly, Miste said nonchalantly.
"Cut, it's not a big deal! As long as you have the ability to do pioneering work and are willing to abide by the law of order, even those who can't bring it with you have the opportunity to join the Pioneer Association! ”
?!
Hearing this, Riel replied with an unchanged face.
"Is that so? Well...... I'll consider it when I know more. ”
If what Mister said was true, Rare had a headache.
This proves that the enemies he will face in the future may be more powerful than he imagined, and his own help will be little.
The area of the plantation is very large, and Riel and Mister walked for a long time until they finally arrived at the fourth-class people's gathering center [Novis].
Before setting off, Arrail had inquired in detail about the distribution of surface strength in the various regions of Mister.
Generally speaking, the number of order maintainers is not large, and the strength is generally not too high.
According to Mister's original words, "The NPCs in this low-level area are all stinky fish and rotten shrimp, and there are no opponents who can fight with me, and if I don't take on tasks, I usually don't come to this kind of novice village very often." ”
That's why Riel dared to come out and probe so quickly.
Otherwise, even if he is confident in his own operation and game ability, he will at least transform all the relics at hand into strength, and then come out to fight.
Novis didn't have any walls or guards or anything like that, and it could be seen that the Federation of Order had already laid down an iron bucket on the continent of Hemisia, and it was not necessary to rely on such things that were too external to maintain order and stability.
Walking into the inside of the gathering place, the houses inside are very neatly planned, and they look like they are in order.
The wooden buildings look like large plants rising from the ground, with many vine-like pipes exposed on the outside of the building.
Arrail looked around a few times alertly, and sure enough, he found some dark red cones that he had seen in the mining area.
As he passed through the Eye of Order's insight, Riel deliberately turned his head to avoid surveillance through the blind spots.
Although he didn't know if it was useful, he tried to be as cautious as possible.
The people on the streets come and go, all of them are farmers who are busy trading crops, and centralized buyers from the trading area.
They use their [social] skills, and you go back and forth to negotiate prices.
"Mr. Rice, this is a high-quality rye flour, can the price be higher?"
"Stop! Rye flour is rye flour, which is the lowest hunger food, where can there be any quality! A total of 400 asset points, don't give me nonsense! I won't accept you anymore! ”
"Don't be angry, don't be angry, just at the price you say!"
Although these centralized purchasers are also fourth-class people, they are obviously better than these laborers who are at the bottom of the fourth-class people.
In front of them, the peasants all looked submissive, for fear that the other party's price would be low or that they would not accept their own things.
In the Order Federation, transactions are not made using things like cash and money, but asset points.
The asset points are bound to the biometric information card held by each federal citizen, and rely on the planting network system to update and share the information of the whole federation synchronously.
This effectively reduces the crime rate in the federation, and every transaction record, as long as the people above want to check it, can sort out the ins and outs.
And those who don't have biometric cards have a hard time making even basic transactions within the federal scale.
Arrail also had to sigh that the concept of biotechnology technology in some areas of the Order Federation was still quite advanced.
