At the foot of the Snow Peak.

The master and apprentice duo and a group of pets are resting.

There is a strange object ring with a fixed space brought by the teacher, and although the two of them traveled lightly, they did not bring any packages and burdens.

But there was no shortage of all kinds of materials along the way, and he even brought a military self-heating fast food bag, which is similar to hot pot, mixed with vegetables, meat, and eggs, and tasted better than canned food and energy bars.

Zhou He, who was squatting on a big rock, picked up a mouthful of vegetables and dried meat from the boxed instant food bag, and said to Su Huan while chewing: "Disciple, it's fast to cross the Snow Peak and cross the Thousand Peaks Ridge." ”

"However, we may have to stay a little longer on the Snow Peak."

Su Huan squatted beside the teacher, also holding a box of self-heating vegetarian bags, he picked up a few noodles and sucked them into his mouth, looking at the teacher with some confusion.

Along the way, the teacher repeatedly emphasized that crossing the Qianfeng Ridge must be fast, and in addition to the necessary rest, it is necessary to cross the Qianfeng Ridge as soon as possible.

This was the first time he had taken the initiative to stay in Qianfeng Ridge.

Zhou He also saw Su Huan's doubts and explained: "This stay is about a commission that the teacher took over two years ago. ”

"Originally, I didn't plan to do it, but since I happened to pass through Qianfeng Ridge, I simply completed this commission."

"Delegate?" Su Huan's tone was puzzled.

can ask the teacher for a commission, and let the teacher remember it after two years, Su Huan, the gathering place, really can't think of anyone who can do it.

Plus the particularity of being in the Thousand Peaks Ridge.

Let Su Huan guess that this commission is very likely to come from the outside world.

"That's right, it's a commission from the Gilded City." Zhou He said with a look of reminiscence.

"Gilded City?!" Su Huan couldn't help but lose his voice.

Su Huan, the name of the gilded city, naturally knew it.

Even the entire large gathering place of the Grey Wilderness Wasteland knew about Gilded City.

Gilded City is one of the forces most closely connected to the Grey Wasteland from the outside world.

Moreover, it is a super-large gathering place located at the real peak of the civilization of the gathering place, and a great power that can be called a city.

A real city is far from being comparable to those extraordinarily large gathering places and half-hung cities in the Grey Wilderness.

And what makes the name of the Gilded City known to everyone in the Gray Wasteland is not only the strength of the Gilded City itself.

It is also the currency of the Grey Wasteland.

Gold grams, silver grams, steel grams, monetary systems.

It was the major gathering places of the Grey Wasteland that imitated the Gilt City monetary system.

Zhou He looked at the surprised expression of the disciple who had always been steady and couldn't help but smile and said, "That's right, it's the gilded city." ”

"The Gilded City can be regarded as the most powerful type of gathering place civilization in the entire Yashan Peninsula."

"It was also the first stop for the teacher to break through in the outside world."

"And the master system in the outside world is very different from our gray wilderness wilderness."

"Their control over the masters is not as strict as our Gray Wilderness Wasteland, and the masters in each gathering place are basically the forces that the gathering place relies on for survival, so the gathering place will be controlled in a unified manner, and a militarized master group will be established to form a quasi-militarized management."

"In the outside world, the management of the master is more loose, and various local master associations will be established to manage the master in a looser way."

"Of course, this also has something to do with the fact that the proportion of masters in the outside world is far greater than that of the Gray Wasteland."

"Take our Black Light Fort as an example, the local population is sixty or seventy thousand, and there are only 100 masters, and there is only one master in hundreds on average."

"But in the outside world, the proportion of the birth of a master can basically reach one percent."

Su Huan asked puzzledly, "The gap is so big?" Is it because of the disparity in resources? ”

Zhou He was quite satisfied that Su Huan could guess this, nodded and said: "The gap in resources is indeed a factor on the one hand, after all, the human gathering place in our Gray Wilderness Wasteland is indeed too barren in terms of resources. ”

"A large number of ferocious wild and dangerous races in the Gray Wilderness Wasteland occupy the vast majority of resources and secret places, while the major gathering places only account for one-twentieth or thirty-tenth of the total resources and secret places of the Gray Wilderness Wasteland."

"In the outside world, human settlements can occupy about one-twelfth of the total natural resources, which is several times that of the gray wilderness."

"But that's not the most critical factor."

"The most important thing is the training concept of the master from the outside world, and the education method that goes far beyond the gathering place of the gray wilderness."

Zhou He sighed and said, "Most of the gathering places in the Gray Wilderness Wasteland are the same as our Black Light Castle, using an elite teaching method similar to the 'Master Master Special Training Student' to train the apprentices, and even these students have to pay their own special training fees. ”

"In the large gathering places of the outside world, the training of master has been popularized to every school-age population, and as long as you reach the age, you can receive a complete education of master master."

After that, Zhou He's expression was a little helpless.

Su Huan also sighed slightly, and didn't ask anything like "Why don't we refer to the outside world's teacher education model".

He knew the reason for this.

It's different from the outside world.

The overall strength of the entire Grey Wasteland is much larger than that of the major gathering places.

Most of the major gathering places are in a state of self-preservation.

And these days, through the teacher's description, Su Huan also knows the general situation of the outside world.

The overall strength of the hordes of dangerous creatures outside is still much stronger than that of humans.

Under the joint intervention of human civilization, large groups of dangerous organisms have become climate-threatening.

Humans and dangerous creatures are in a state of relative equilibrium.

It's not like the Gray Wilderness, where people go down to small gathering places, large gathering places, and extra-large gathering places, all of which are attacked and harassed by dangerous biological groups all day long.

In order to survive, almost every large agglomeration is desperately empowering industry, especially the military industry, to ensure the security of the agglomeration under the threat of dangerous biological groups.

This is also a means that the major gathering places of the Gray Wilderness Wasteland, which are facing an existential crisis, have no way to deal with it.

After all, the training cycle of a master is too long, and it may take at least four or five years for a reserve master to really subdue the pet and become a master, and to form combat effectiveness.

And it's full of uncertainty, and not everyone has the potential to become a master.

And to train a qualified soldier, under the baptism of artillery fire and battle, it does not even take a year.

The only thing to be guaranteed is the supply of the military industry.

In the outside world, the living environment of human beings is not as worrying as the remote and backward gray wilderness.

Even small and medium-sized gatherings are attacked by a large group of dangerous creatures more than 10 times a year.

In the Grey Wastelands, that number may be tenfold larger.

The gathering place of the outside world does not need much manpower at all in the industrial and military industries.

This also frees up a lot of manpower to devote himself to all walks of life.

Teacher education is one of the top priorities.

Just when Su Huan was thinking about it, the teacher continued to elaborate: "In the outside world, there is no restriction that you will engage in other industries if you can't become a master at the age of eighteen. ”

"Even the reserve of the master who is still sprinting towards the master at the age of twenty or thirty is still there."

"But we had to."

"That's enough to make the number of masters in the outside far exceed our Grey Wasteland."

"Due to the birth of a large number of pilots, and the urgency of the need for pilots is far less than that of our Gray Wilderness, their control over pilots is naturally relatively loose and free."

"It is against this background that various local master associations in the outside world have been established one after another."

"The Association of Pilots, which is an organization that provides mutual communication and communication channels for trainers, does not impose too many restrictions on the participation of members, nor does it restrict the behavior of members too much."

"Its main function is not only to provide a platform for communication between the masters, but also to evaluate the level of the masters."

"Amateur disciple-level pilots, that is, the seven levels of apprentices, as well as the evaluation of professional-level pilots, are all passed down from the original established master association."

"It's a liberal organization with a long history, but it's very loosely structured."

"Weishi also joined the local master association of the gilded city."

"This commission was issued by the Gilded City Riders Association two years ago."
