Chapter Fifty-Six: Joining

Twenty-nine workers, each paid one token a day, plus a five-token performance bonus and about seven to eight tokens of barley.

The total cost is just over 40 tokens.

And the labor they provide can produce a total of 300 tokens worth of simple suits and all-terrain boots per day.

The Mamba also sold them what they produced to pay their wages, and the capitalists listened to it and called them experts.

After the reception, Mamba took Selena to the room where the idol was.

"Selena, let me confirm again, are you really willing to believe in the Lord, become a person of the Lord, and be a member of our gathering place?"

With Selena, Mamba is much more civilized, and now that the development of the gathering place is on the right track, there is no need to be as rigid as he was with Catherine.

Selena looked at the statue sitting on the stone chair in front of her, feeling a little uneasy.

However, thinking that she could obtain the "Divine Power Fragment", it was impossible for her to let go of this rare opportunity.

"Yes, I do!" Selena nodded vigorously.

Mamba nodded, and turned back to take the ritual dagger and stamp from Fran's hand.

"Wait a minute, I need some of your blood, don't worry, Fran will treat you."

As he spoke, Mamba used the dagger to cut a bloody streak on her wrist.

Selena's muscles tensed as she watched her own blood being sucked into the ritual dagger, and she panicked even more.

How can this kind of ritual look so evil, it can't be that I have strayed into some cult organization, right?

The next Mamba's movements terrified her, watching the blood on the dagger trickle over the helmet of the idol and then dripping onto the stamp, Selena already felt her legs start to cramp.

In the end, Mamba walked over with the stamp and imprinted the blood on Selena's head, and only one thought flashed through Selena's mind: "It's over......"

Catherine also saw the ritual process for the first time, and she felt a little uncomfortable when she thought that she had been performed such a ritual while she was unconscious.

But then again, at that time, their own lives were almost gone, and the Mamba saved their own life, which is said to have been given by the "Lord".

Selena slowly came back to her senses, she touched the blood mark on her forehead, and looked at Catherine with some surprise: "So it's done?" ”

Catherine nodded, looking at the idol with some awe: "From now on, you have become a subject of the Lord just like us. ”

Selena still asked, "Where is the Lord?" Why didn't I feel it? ”

At this moment, Selena's voice abruptly stopped, and seeing her frozen in place, Catherine knew that it was the "Lord" who was showing power.

After a while, Selena suddenly let out a strong gasp, and then collapsed to the ground.

"It's ...... It's ......" she trembled for a long time, not knowing what to say.

Catherine picked her up, nodded and said, "The Lord is watching us all the time. ”

Maybe Selena has begun to regret it now, but unfortunately, there is no regret medicine to take in this world.

Mamba, who packed up the ritual utensils, walked to the idol with three "fragments of divine power" in his arms.

These are the trophies that the expedition team brought back from this trip, two of the "Divine Power Fragments" are active, and one is dull.

Catherine and Selena on the side found at the same time that the faint "Divine Power Fragment" in Mamba's hand suddenly lit up.

The pupils of the two of them dilated instantly, and this was the first time they had seen the "Lord" activate the "Divine Power Fragment".

"No wonder they've been searching for the unactivated 'Divine Power Shards', it turns out that the Lord can activate them......" The two thought in unison.

At this time, Selena felt her body uncontrollable again, and her legs moved on their own, all the way to Mamba's side.

Then, with her right hand, she picked up a "Divine Power Fragment" from Mamba's hand, and then, her body regained control.

Mamba nodded at her, "Selena, it's given to you by the Lord, come in." ”

Selena didn't expect that the joking on-demand allocation before was actually true.

As soon as she arrived at the gathering place, she got a "Divine Power Fragment", and looking at what she dreamed of, Selena couldn't believe it.

She hurriedly inserted the "Divine Power Fragment" into the back of her head, and the moment she accessed the "Divine Power Fragment", an indescribably wonderful feeling filled her entire brain.

……

Tang Hao assigned Selena a "driver" module.

Selena has been running a trading post for several years, and she is also an intellectual talent, and among the three modules, "Driver" is the most suitable for her access.

Although Tang Hao could also see that she was a little reluctant, as long as she completed the ceremony, she was one of the 15/200 under her control.

Tang Hao was not worried that she would betray him at all, and he was also ready for her to drive the octopus machine.

……

Susie, in the other room, had already started to get down to business.

The expedition brought back two large pieces, an octopus-shaped mechanical guard, and a metal cube with wires attached.

The "Lord" instructed her to disassemble the octopus mechanical guard and reassemble it again.

With such a complex structure, ordinary people may not necessarily want to know where to start if they disassemble it all.

Susie, who has been promoted to Level 2 Mechanic, is different, as she has a unique "Mechanical Disassembly/Assembly" skill that allows her to disassemble any machine and reassemble it completely.

Susie can even draw drawings of the assembly of the machine during the disassembly process, and as long as she has enough parts, she can use the drawings to reassemble the same machine.

This skill can be called a copycat magic skill.

This octopus machine is a difficult test for Susie, but Susie is very confident in herself.

Disassembling and reassembling is a must to become an "engineer", and Susie locks herself in the studio, spreads out the various tools and instruments she has designed, and vows not to give up until the work is completed.

……

When I saw Selena again, she had already changed into the uniform costume of the gathering place, which was much more comfortable than the rags she had when she came, and she also had a pair of all-terrain boots, and she was not afraid to walk.

After becoming a member of the Gathering Area, Selena was also given a room of her own, and the goods she brought with her almost filled the room.

With the idea of reciprocating gifts, Selena began to give small gifts she had prepared to her companions at the gathering place.

Selena is much better at this than Catherine, who has not yet changed from her notion of a wandering merchant and peddler, and has hidden everything in the "subspace backpack".
