The parcel system is one of the few gaming experiences that is still fully functional, in addition to functions such as accessing items, preventing items from deteriorating, and sealing item attributes, in order to facilitate communication and transactions, players can voluntarily show their packages to other players to confirm items or other information.

In order to strengthen the stability of management, I asked all the war criminals of the Hongjiao Legion to hand over all their personal belongings, which is nothing to negotiate, let alone prison, and you are not allowed to bring anything with you when you go to the supermarket.

The implementation of this order did not go smoothly at the beginning, and many war criminals did not cooperate, and they also saw that as long as we did not make a big trouble, we would not be ruthless, but I still did not allow this hidden danger to exist. In order to achieve this goal, I ordered the adoption of a zoning and isolation management method, that is, two war criminals who handed in their belongings and were confirmed by the display package, and those who did not want to hand in their belongings were placed in two areas for supervision. The distance between the two areas is not too far, and the uncooperative war criminals can see me at all times providing food and comfortable incarceration conditions for the war criminals who obey the management.

In the first few days, there were still those who insisted on uncompromising, but with the decline of survival attributes, the unclear situation of Ling Huo, and the persuasion of friends next door, more and more people were willing to cooperate with the management. On the fifth day, more than 5,000 war criminals of the Hongjiao Regiment handed over their personal belongings, and the hidden danger of the riot was completely removed.

Originally, I also wanted to use this management action to make a lot of loot, but after reading the item details, I realized that the end of the world is really not called in vain, more than 5,000 people, except for some low-end weapons and equipment and clothing, they really don't even have a decent thing that helps survival.

Since there is no value, it is better to take the humane management route, I asked Wang Shixiong to register the items and ask them to sign them, promising to return all personal belongings on the day of release.

Ling Huo was the same, before the interrogation, his personal belongings were confiscated, and he had been embedded in a golden statue for so long, he had long been tortured to give up all resistance, just to be able to get out, and everything else was not important.

As soon as he recovered, he asked to meet with me, and I had a lot of questions for him.

Instead of meeting him in prison, I asked Wan Pei to bring him to my office, and I thought that there might be a possibility of cooperation between us, after all, it is better for a regiment of five thousand men to be friends than enemies. So I want to build a strong and sincere image in his heart, so that I can communicate further.

After dinner, Wan Pei brought Ling Huo over. The big man who is more than 1.9 meters is still wearing his own set of clothes, and he doesn't have any torture equipment, this is all specially arranged by me, although the Hongyao Legion is only an opposition organization, but after all, he is the number one, and the administrative level is much higher than that of me, the leader of the empty alliance, and it is understandable to give a certain amount of respect.

Let Ling Huo into the room, Wan Pei exited, and there were only two people left in the room, Ling Huo and me.

I was looking at him, and he was looking at the door in a daze, and he saw that he hadn't recovered from the obsession he had seen at first sight......

"Captain Linghuo, I heard that you have something to look for me?"

I said hello, Ling Huo came back to his senses, turned his head and said to me: "The Lord of the Spring League is benevolent and righteous, he didn't hurt our lives in this matter, I want to express my gratitude in person." ”

Ling Huo looks like he is in his sixties and seventies, and his voice is sonorous and powerful, but he does not lose his respect.

I didn't care: "Didn't you plan to hurt our lives, oh no, it's their lives, the two of us fought on the rooftop that day, and the head of Linghuo almost killed me in seconds a few times." ”

Ling Huo was ashamed, sighed and sat on the sofa opposite me, and said in a deep voice: "I don't shirk my fault for this matter, survive in the last days, for the sake of my brothers, and for the sake of these children, I can only act according to my own plan before I understand the strength of the leader of the Spring Alliance." As for the offense of the day, how the leader of the Spring League wanted to deal with it, the old fire confessed. ”

I sighed, "You're looking for me to say this?"

Ling Huo is a straightforward character, in such a situation, while facing his own guilt, there is no trace of restraint, and he said directly: "I just learned from my girl that she is negotiating with you, and the direction of the negotiation is very in line with the current situation, I want to officially represent the Hongyao Legion and join the alliance of the Lord of the Spring Alliance, develop together, and resist the Tang Empire's crusading army." ”

There is a family channel between Ling Huo and Ling Die, and after so many days in the base, everyone who can talk must have talked about it.

He was blunt, and I didn't hide it: "First of all, on behalf of myself, I would like to express my appreciation for the strength and temperament of Commander Ling Huo. As for what you are advocating for the Hongyao Legion to join the Sichun Alliance, I am unwilling to accept it. ”

Ling Huo frowned: "Does the leader of the Spring Alliance doubt our strength?"

I waved my hand: "It's not a doubt, it's a confirmation." After the Night Raid, I have been able to confirm your strength, and joining the Alliance at this level will not help us in any way. Oh of course, the strength of the Linghuo Regiment Leader is still very strong, if you personally ask to join, I will definitely welcome it, and I can also arrange a good position for you. ”

Ling Huo tried hard to argue: "Compared with today's Sichun Alliance, our strength is much worse. But you have to think clearly, the Tang Empire's crusading army has a month to come, and at that time, as the target of the conquest, it will definitely be more advantageous for us to work together than to be defeated one by one. The leader of the Spring Alliance is so good at using soldiers, and if five thousand more people come out, it must be a great improvement for you in all aspects. ”

"And don't worry about us being on the big tree of the Alliance. Ling Huo added: "We will not put any burden on the alliance and the leader of the Spring Alliance, we just want to be able to fight hard and survive this crusade within the alliance's prevention system, and then we will withdraw." Whether it is life or death, it is not necessary to worry about the master of the Spring Alliance. ”

"That's one of the reasons why I'm reluctant to accept your legion. I stood up and said, "I set up this alliance for two purposes, one is to help the Holy Sword Academy survive this difficult time, and the other is to avenge my own personal vendetta. In order to achieve both of these goals, and in order to ensure that the resources I put in are worthwhile, I have to ensure that the success rate is achieved. ”

"You should have heard from Ling Die, I have already set up the Fist Sect and officially taken over the Holy Sword Academy. I did this because I was confident that I would be able to lead them through the calamity, but it was not clear whether I would be able to take revenge. Because we don't know if this crusade is under the command of the Great Demon King of Xichun himself, even if she comes, I am not absolutely sure that I will be able to catch her while resisting the crusade. ”

"So before I catch Xichun, I may need to be the enemy of the entire Tang Empire, not as you said, and successfully resist a crusade. So I don't need your temporary attachment, if you want to join the alliance, you must be prepared to fight with me until the last moment of consciousness, just like I have long had the consciousness that I will accompany the Holy Sword Academy to the end no matter what the situation. ”

Listening to my words, Ling Huo fell into a long silence, even if he was resolute, he had to think about this problem.

After being silent for more than ten minutes, Ling Huo finally spoke: "Troubled Spring Alliance Leader, in fact, as long as our legion retreats a little, let the Tang Empire Crusade Army fight against you first, no matter whether they win or lose, after your attrition, their strength should not be enough to crusade against our base." So I don't think there's any need for us to put our lives into your personal vendetta and take the initiative to fight the Tang Empire... We really don't have that strength and awareness. ”

I smiled: "You are really naïve, Commander Ling Huo, what you just said is right, under the cover of the Holy Sword Academy, the chance of you being defeated is very low, because they can't pass me at all." But that was before, if you didn't have the idea of hitting me with supplies, if you didn't have the idea of attacking me at night, and if you didn't come to attack me at night, but honestly hid in your base, then everything is indeed as you said. ”

I walked up to Ling Huo and said in a cold voice: "But you didn't do that, you didn't believe in our strength, and in the end you risked your life and became a prisoner, do you think everything can get back on track? Do you think I can let you war criminals go for no reason?"

Ling Huo looked at me, his gaze did not dodge, and after a long time, I read his eyes: "Unless, what can you let me let you go......"

"Yes. ”

"Tell me about it. ”

"I know that a remnant copy, if cleared, can greatly increase the strength of the Sichun Alliance. ”

I knew that it was impossible for him to lie at this time, but I still couldn't believe it: "The Thousand Machine Copy System has already collapsed." ”

Ling Huo nodded: "That's true, what I'm talking about is a remnant copy, I analyzed that it is a hidden copy, which is temporarily open to all players after meeting the activation conditions, and in that state, it just happened to encounter the collapse of the thousand machine system, so I stayed." The person who activated the quest failed to complete the task and died in the quest at that point, so the remnant of the quest became a secret until I found out. ”

I asked, "Oh, how lucky are you?"

Ling Huo shook his head: "No, it's not my luck, I was able to find out this secret because the person who activated that copy was my wife." Twenty years ago, she went out on a mission with a group of her friends, and never returned. At that time, the Thousand Machine System was gradually collapsing, and I was unable to contact her by normal means of communication. I could only find it based on the general information she left behind when she left, and then I found the remnant copy in the place where they were on a mission, and it was probably the only copy among the thousand machines. ”

If this news is true, it is definitely worth having for me. Now I want money, money, and people, and the only thing I lack is my personal level, without a level, it is difficult for my strength to improve, and the release of skills and so on will always be limited by mana. The wild monsters that can be used by me to level up in a thousand machines have become very rare, and they are hard to find. Then a copy of the real existence is definitely worth the price I pay.

I asked Ling Huo, "Have you already decided?" and you plan to exchange this secret for the freedom of the Hongyao Legion. ”

Ling Huo said: "The leader of the Spring Alliance has misunderstood, what my brothers and I are pursuing is not freedom, and in the last days, we have long been tired of freedom. What we really want is... Forget it, our small goal has nothing to do with the great cause of the Spring Alliance, so you might as well make a decision, are you willing to accept my proposal? Let's join temporarily, and quit when the matter is completed. Or let us go now and get the information on a surviving copy. ”

I stretched out my hand: "Okay, I respect your beliefs, so confirm it and show me, if I can confirm that the copy does exist and really works for me, I will let you go." ”

Ling Huo raised his hand and shook my hand: "Thank you to the Lord of the Spring Alliance for giving me the right to negotiate, then let me confirm it to you." ”

"How can you confirm it?"

"Let's go for a trip. ”
