Chapter 5: Levels
The history of Lingqi Village is very short, from the arrival of the first generation of colonists here, to now, it is less than a hundred years old.
This is also thanks to the fact that after the "light of day", the temperature rises, so those colonists can settle in such places.
Further back, Hobright's territory was a small one, and everyone was crowded around the current capital of the country, the city of Flame, where there was a fountain of flames that would never be extinguished, and where only it could withstand the darkness and cold.
The emergence of "Tianguang" changed the pattern of the whole world, and human beings, who were originally nested next to some natural heat sources, began to set out to expand their territory.
Lord Kathras's great-grandfather, Viscount Holman, came here during the Great Frontier.
The Pioneer Regiment defeated the gray wolves and cooing bears that were entrenched in this land, and finally established a foothold here.
Lingqi Village is the fief of a knight under Viscount Holman, but after nearly a hundred years, Hoblens has long canceled various titles, and now the royal family only cares about whether they can receive taxes, and the rest, whoever has the big fist has the final say.
There are about forty or fifty people in Lingqi Village, and in addition to going to the lord's mansion to work, adults join the hunter team and go hunting in the deep mountains and old forests.
Carl's father worked on the "greenhouse farm" in the Lord's Palace, leaving early and returning late every day, walking twenty kilometers back and forth.
Fortunately, the treatment in the Lord's Mansion is good, in addition to the two tokens he can receive every month, the Lord's Mansion also provides two meals for one middle and one night.
Each meal was a lot of food, and Carl's father usually only ate one meal, and brought the other meal back for his wife and children, and the family was almost full.
In addition, Mrs. Handel planted some potatoes in her own field to supply rations, and Lingqi Village collectively raised more than a dozen pigs, which could also eat meat during the New Year's holidays.
As for why the temperature in the house is pleasant, it is thanks to the knight who built the village here in the first place.
When he led people to dig a well here, he actually dug an underground hot spring, and after the hot spring water was brought out, the heating problem in the entire Lingqi Village was solved, which is also the fundamental reason why Lingqi Village has been able to persist for a hundred years.
……
Daniel got the answer he wanted, leaving the bear paw and some tokens as payment, and then got up to leave.
Naturally, Mrs. Handel was grateful for her kindness, and for her, Daniel was not only a great benefactor, but also a living bodhisattva.
As a token of gratitude, Mrs. Handel asks Karl to send Daniel to him, and Daniel can get more words out of the child's mouth.
"Mr. Daniel, you are really powerful, you must know that the village chief Cauchy is the most powerful person in our village, you can actually block his fist!" After going out, Carl was not as reserved as he was in front of his mother, and his little mouth was chattering non-stop.
Daniel touched his little head and said with a smile: "How many people have you just met, you know that they are powerful, so let me ask you, who is the most powerful person you know?" ”
Karl tilted his head and thought for a moment and said, "I heard my father say that there is a very powerful ...... in the lord's mansion Witch ......"
He suddenly lowered his voice and said, "Mr. Daniel, don't tell anyone. It is said that the witch can draw power from the blood of the living, and with a wave of her hand, the earth will crack, and when she opens her eyes, the ice can turn into flames. ”
"There used to be a village that resisted taxes and didn't pay them, and even injured and killed the people in the tax collection team, and as a result, the whole village was sucked into a human ...... by that witch."
Carl was shocked: "People do it, it's just the pork that can't be eaten, and it looks like after it is stored and dried." ”
Daniel frowned, what kind of strength is this so-called witch, it's really hard to say, and you have to be more cautious in the future.
……
Tang Hao's side has already obtained the investigation materials submitted by the base's intelligent adjutant.
"Judging from the current situation, Lingqi Village can only be regarded as basic primitive artisanal agriculture, far from reaching the level of the first industrial revolution."
The adjutant gave some screenshots, which included various agricultural tools, building materials, and more in Lingqi Village.
"However, according to Madame Handel, her husband works on the 'greenhouse farm' in the Lord's Mansion, then the productivity level of the Lord's Mansion is obviously not on the same level as Lingqi Village."
Tang Hao nodded: "'Greenhouse Farm', this is indeed a good way, you will inform Mamba later, and see if Freya can find a way to come out as well." ”
The adjutant continued, "The potatoes in Lingqi Village are a very suitable crop for growing in cold environments, and we think we can introduce them appropriately. ”
"As for meat acquisition, their thoughts are the same as ours, they are all breeding pigs, I don't know if it's a coincidence."
Tang Hao smiled and said: "What do you know, this is called the hero sees the same thing." ”
"As for the combat effectiveness of the surface world, this machine cannot be judged for the time being," the adjutant said, "There is really too little information that can be obtained in this small village. ”
Tang Hao nodded and said, "It's okay, take your time step by step...... But from the information we have so far, one thing is very important. ”
"Humans on the surface are all naturally produced, so there should be no human manufacturing factories."
"And ......" Tang Hao adjusted the perspective to the back of Carl's neck: "No one has a module interface, that is to say, there should be no so-called 'mind warriors' among surface humans." ”
The adjutant replied, "Yes, Your Excellency, it seems that there is a significant difference between the humans on the surface and the humans in the underworld. ”
"Don't you think it's strange, adjutant? If there is no 'psychic warrior', then, what is the witch that Carl is talking about? ”
Tang Hao's expression was a little serious: "If it's not the power given by the module, then, where did she get her supernatural power?" ”
"Could it really be the blood of a living person? That's really a medieval witch. He couldn't help but think it was a little funny.
The adjutant replied: "I'm sorry, Your Excellency, but this machine does not have enough information right now to answer your questions for the time being. ”
Tang Hao wasn't ready to take these to heart for the time being: "Don't worry, there are still many things to explore in this world, but our top priority now is ......"
He turned his camera to the clearing next to the Giant Rhino, where the large transparent cube of the base's intelligent lieutenant was placed, and Susie and Selena had already begun directing the workers to build the scaffolding.
"Federation General Colonial Command Base, Adjutant, your next task is to cooperate with Susie and Selena to complete this basic project!"
