Chapter 169: Is it the Zerg?
The sudden ringing of the opening bell relieved Ferns from the pile of questions from Tantai, and the group began to follow the person in charge of recruiting workers towards a factory-like building.
The location of the factory is located away from the center of the first district, in a very peripheral place, quite far from the residential building.
However, it does not make people feel panicked and nervous away from the crowd, because there are many similar factories and buildings around, and there are more workers in Tanloner than in the living area.
There was also a sign outside the factory that was written on it, which Ferns did not recognize, but someone among his companions knew him, and whispered out, "Kaiya Wood Processing Factory." ”
"No wonder you want to go out into the forest." Thantai looked very understanding, Ferns couldn't help but turn his face to look at Thantai, this glance was a little surprised, he always felt that this young man named Tentai knew a little too much.
Mistaking Ferns for the reason, Tann explained, "You don't know what a lumber mill does. Let me tell you, wood has a lot of functions, like the house we live in, we have to use this kind of treated wood as a support, and the charcoal factory, we also have to use wood as a raw material......"
Of course, it is not the same kind of wood, although the Kahur tree is known as the tree of life, and all kinds of functions are quite comprehensive, but in some special needs, it is more suitable for those wood with a single function.
At first, the players were responsible for the felling of these timbers, but later, as more and more Tanlons were found in the Yegu Forest, the work of the players was gradually replaced by these Tanlons.
What's more, the player doesn't have the patience to deal with the wood obediently and honestly at the beginning, and the mission income is not seen at all, Mo Lan thinks that it is probably the pot of inflation.
Since the establishment of various factories and shops, the speed at which players obtain energy points has skyrocketed, but fortunately, most of the energy points are a kind of data exchange, rather than really becoming energy, otherwise Mo Lan would not be able to afford such a large amount of energy, and she still has many Zerg soldiers to cultivate.
With a stable source of energy points, players are more free to choose in the game, only choose their favorite and interesting game tasks, and those uninteresting game tasks are not watched, and the poor are almost a true portrayal of the player's mentality.
Fortunately, the new players who have entered the game have not encountered such an exaggerated change, and Mo Lan is not in a hurry to change the players' attitude towards the game too much, or rather, she has already thought of a suitable plan, but she has not yet begun to implement it.
Ferns listened to the news of the lumber mill, which can be regarded as an indirect understanding of the planet, and at the same time looked at the interior space of the lumber mill, which has two floors, about the height of the three-story residential buildings outside.
There are several spaces in it, and at a glance, the largest space is filled with neat timber, which should have been processed, while the smaller space in the middle is the wood being processed, and the space on the other side is a large table that looks like a space for eating.
When Ferns was at home, he often ate some handmade food, not just a nourishing paste, and he didn't know anything about this way of eating, and he also ate a lot of biological meat in the Yegur Forest in order to save as much nutrient paste as possible, and the food here was no worse than those half-cooked roasts with no seasonings.
Learning from the people around him, Ferns sat at the round table, and soon a table was full, probably in the direction of the kitchen, and a middle-aged woman opened the curtain to reveal her head, "The meal is ready, and someone from each table will come out to receive the food." ”
Tantai, who was sitting with Ferns, immediately got up and greeted warmly, "I'll come, I'll come, you just have to sit." ”
Ferns quickly brought a large pot of soup, a plate of cakes, a plate of stir-fried wild vegetables, a plate of roasted meat, and a plate of round unknown food the size of a basketball.
The bowls were almost prepared on the table in advance, and Ferns served the soup, took the bread, and sandwiched the vegetables, but he didn't know what to do with the round food.
"Don't you like to eat the moon?" Tantai was very surprised, the moon is called a big potato by the players, and its taste and growth habits are close to those of potatoes on the earth, but it looks like the moon, and the surface is pitted and the plant is bored.
Some people really don't like the taste of potatoes naturally, but for most of the Tanloners, it's acceptable, and some people even like it.
"I don't like it either." Tan Tai whispered, "I really don't understand why the group of people in the cafeteria always like to eat it steaming the moon, obviously it will be better to fry or stir-fry, and the soup is also delicious!" ”
"Are you trying to get into a tummy? We're here to work, not to hold our stomachs and find out where the toilet is. One of the Tanloners at the table couldn't help but interject.
"Actually, it's because it's easy to steam, and when you cook the soup, you can put a steaming drawer on it, after all, you have to prepare food for so many people." Another Tanlonger also spoke, and as soon as there were many people talking, the topic on the dinner table suddenly became lively.
In the midst of the mess, Ferns was able to obtain more information, such as the fact that the people of Tanlon, who originally lived in different mining bases, were led by overseers chosen by the interstellar people, and did dangerous work in the mines, and the pay was extremely low, and they had to be exhausted every day to feed their families.
Until the Divine Envoy occupied the mining bases, they were relieved from the tedious work, and some of the Tanlons were asked to move to the Yegu Forest, and the remaining Tanlons were also required to do the work of going down the mines, but the remuneration was increased several times, and other new jobs were provided to them.
The Thornlons were even more fortunate to come to the Yegu Forest, and although it came at a cost, they were given a new place to live, clean and warm - they had lived in various abandoned mines, where darkness and dampness were the norm, and it was normal for them to not be able to keep the wind out.
What surprised Ferns the most was that he found a problem in the conversation between this group of people, that is, the interstellar people were not completely expelled, but most of the places except the Yegur Forest were still under the control of the interstellar people, and the group of divine envoys was eating away at the interstellar people's authority and control little by little.
Odd? If this is the case, then the message requesting support should have been sent out a long time ago, how can there be such a low-level tug-of-war here, and lose again and again? Unable to understand, Ferns finished his preoccupied meal...... It tastes good, better than most of the instant foods sold on the interstellar market.
That's probably the beauty of artificially made food.
After the meal, the person in charge of recruitment appeared, organized everyone into a long line, and prepared to go to work, Ferns followed the large army towards the predetermined place of work, and Tantai seemed to stick to him, chattering all the time.
“…… I'll tell you, you didn't know when you first arrived, but the best food is actually in the big bazaar, where there are shops opened by the gods and adults, selling all kinds of food, all of which are very delicious, and if I have saved up enough Kulan Seal, I will also go and eat it once! ”
Small talk is not forbidden in the team, the travel time is not short, and there are some dangers in the places to go, so there must be a place for people to vent their emotions.
Officially out of the protective fence of the first human zone, Tan Tai hugged his shoulders, shook his body, and happily abandoned the topic he had just talked about, his voice was much weaker, "The forest is indeed a little scary, have you been here before, I don't think you are afraid at all." I've heard my grandmother say that only people who are dying will go to the Yegu Forest, and when the creatures inside eat him, they can be reincarnated as creatures in the Yagu Forest in the next life, and live in the Yagu Forest, and no longer have to work for the interstellar people. But now that I've lived in the Yagu Forest, I don't want to be eaten by those creatures. ”
The reason why the wood processing factory hires a large number of workers to work in the field is actually because the various plants on the planet Tannon are too large, and there are no more convenient transportation tools at present, so they can only process the wood into the right size in the field and then move it back to the factory.
If the wood cannot be processed in the first time, there will be some vicious changes that will affect the quality of the wood, mainly to avoid this problem.
I don't know if it's a change in atmosphere or what's the reason, the person in charge of recruitment, at this time, said loudly, "Don't worry, everyone! Although we are working in the forest, we have invited the Divine Envoy to escort us, and with the Divine Envoy here, there will be absolutely no danger! ”
As soon as the Divine Envoy was mentioned, the atmosphere of the team really began to change, and it was much more relaxed, and even Tan Tai showed a relieved expression, "I haven't been in contact with the Divine Envoy, so excited, I don't know if there will be a Divine Envoy to greet me." ”
Haven't been exposed to oracles? Ferns looked sideways, remembering the group of oracles who had surrounded him in the first place, didn't they surround them when they saw a Tanlon?
…… Wait, it really doesn't. Ferns thought of the Thorns he had met along the way, who seemed to be very different from the oracles, but who in fact had the occasional conversation.
He seems to have attracted the unwanted attention of the oracles because of that face that was so good?
In the midst of the conversation, Ferns was keenly aware of the sound of a creature approaching, the footsteps were very soft, most likely not a heavy creature, and the sound of rubbing leaves was like a hard carapace.
Looking at the defenseless Tanlons around him, Ferns secretly defended himself, but he didn't know whether he should expose himself at this time, or maybe this group of people had a different response, and those oracles would appear in time?
The unknown creature finally appeared in front of the crowd, and it did not rush forward with reckless ferocity, but walked with a rather leisurely attitude, and at the same time as it saw this creature, all the Tanlons were silent at the same time.
"Yes......" Ferns murmured unconsciously.
"Yes......" Tantai said at the same time.
"Your Excellency!" The sudden outburst of cries covered up the word Zerg that Ferns had accidentally blurted out.
As the younger brother of General Engels, Ferns was so full of understanding of the Zerg that when he saw the creature that suddenly appeared, he immediately recognized it, and this creature was definitely the Zerg.
But at the same time, the attitude of the group of Tanlons next to him also brought Ferns back to his senses. Aren't the oracles the group of people who look like wholesale doll models in the mall? Why would they suddenly call this Zerg an oracle?
Did he admit that he was wrong, this is not a zerg? No, it can't be, Ferns is sure, there's no way he'll mistake the Zerg.
"Yosai! Let's go! The unreliable rookie player, speaking gibberish language, waved his sharp forelimbs at everyone, and then turned around and led the way in front of the head.
"Well, Lord Divine Envoy, why are you ......" The head of recruitment approached the player, and asked in a relatively low tone, when faced with players with strange appearances, most of the Tanlons are generally a little more respectful than usual.
"Ah, he has something to do, he has to go online late, it's okay, I'll be here in a while, don't worry, I'm okay alone." Unreliable rookie players continue to speak unreliable.
Ferns could see the distrust of the person in charge of recruitment, but he could also see that he didn't dare to continue, so he could only nod his head and answer yes yes.
However, he is obviously more confused than the head of recruitment...... Doesn't it mean that the Zerg don't have individual consciousness? There are a lot of words, and the words are very strange, and inexplicably, full of weird attraction, what's going on with the Zerg? Could it be that he really confessed his mistake? Isn't this really a Zerg? Or is that the Zerg with a male voice is actually the newborn Zerg Empress?
Wrong wrong...... That's definitely Zerg! He couldn't admit his mistake, so why did the Zerg have individual consciousness?!
……
"He doesn't seem to understand." Shiqi opened his mouth, and it was in Mo Lan's spiritual network, checking the situation around Ferns together.
Mo Lan has quite a lot of small zergs arranged in various human gathering places, the smallest of which is like ants, and it is not to monitor the privacy of the Tanloners, but mainly to facilitate her to release what happened in the Tanlons as a game task to the players at any time.
is like the lost Aria, in fact, she has always been in Mo Lan's sight, but she has not been lost for a long time, and her grandfather has the ability to find her back, otherwise Mo Lan would have played a daily small task for the players around her.
So, before Ferns appeared next to Alia, Mo Lan spotted him, and until now, he has been watching all his moves.
"It's a good reaction, and I hope the other interstellar people will be so surprised." Mo Lan nodded.
Surprise...... Is it? Shiqi looked at Ferns's expression again, and he couldn't see the slightest surprise at all.
(Ferns's current image setting, when I was writing, what I was thinking about in my mind was the outfit of Tang Seng in the Jade Rabbit in Journey to the West, just the image of the white clothes and the head wrapped around the head, it was the Jade Rabbit, I don't remember clearly, anyway, I think that image is so beautiful.) )
