Leaving the tavern, old Dimitri led Leoz and Choran around the complicated alleys and containers of the Sikkim settlement, opened a manhole cover, and led them down the ladder.

"Here it is...... Shipwreck? ”

Qiu Ran's fingertips brushed the alloy plates on both sides of the corridor, and said in surprise:

"The whole settlement of Sikkim was built on a ship...... unimaginable. How big is the ship? ”

"Small cargo ships of less than a million tons, in the old days, this was small, and they were not even equipped with nuclear reactors. In the old days, warships and aircraft carriers were all big guys who were five or six hundred meters away. ”

Dimitri said with some yearning:

"There used to be a lot of water in the outside world, and it gathered into the ocean. But since that war, the sea has either frozen into ice, buried by wind, snow and sand, or turned into permanent snow that has gone with the wind. ”

"The old world, it seems like everything is big." Qiu Ran looked at the spacious corridor enviously: "Even Frost Plating doesn't seem to have such a big ship. ”

"Yes, there is overcapacity in the Old World, and the fashion clothes they produce a year can be worn by billions of people for a thousand years." Dimitri said.

"That's amazing...... Everyone must have been very rich at that time, so that every family had a big wardrobe to hold hundreds of clothes. ”

"Not really, according to the garbage guy's excavations. Most of the clothes are discarded before they are worn a few times. Li Aozi shrugged his shoulders and dispelled Qiu Ran's illusions: "Actually, the old times are no different from the present, the poor will always be poor, and the rich will always be rich." It's just that the quality of life is much better than it is now. ”

"Uh......"

Qiu Ran opened his mouth and finally said:

"Even then, it's better than it is now."

Compared to the ground, the underground is not much warmer, and the corridors are full of homeless wanderers, but compared to the people living in iron containers on the ground, they have a small amount of assets, at least a blanket, a vessel that cannot tell if it is a pot or a skull, some weapons, and that's it.

Almost everyone slept on their own boxes, and there were few fights compared to those on the ground, and there was a bit of a sense of community, and there were campfires scattered in some places, which often crowded around dozens of people to sleep. Relying on the ship's original ventilation ducts, no one should have died of carbon monoxide poisoning.

It's a lot cleaner than on the ground, I don't know if it's because there are more toilets on the ship, in fact, the filth and excrement on the ground are only temporary, and often feel more disgusting on the first day, and in the second half of the night, these things will be blown away or buried by the wind and snow.

In fact, Li Aozi knows in his heart that in the outside world, even the excrement is robbed, there is no chemical fertilizer here, and the nutrient layer of the land has long been destroyed by wind and sand, and there are not many nutrients that can be used to grow crops. In such places, there are usually guards with guns behind the public toilets to prevent anyone from stealing these important resources.

In addition to human life, everything related to people in the outside world is precious.

Old Dimitri made his way up the stairs to the end and used the key to open a door to a sailor's quarters:

"I'm living here."

The moment the door opened, the warm breath came to her face, Qiu Ran smelled the moisture, the woman and the faint smell of milk, she poked her head forward curiously, the orange candlelight was particularly precious in the dark, a middle-aged woman with a sallow face, but a very kind expression lay on the wooden board, and the bed was piled up with fur, mattresses, and even soft things such as chicken feathers.

The interior layout is luxurious, with a queen bed, a carpet, a work table, a cabinet and a coal stove. Apart from the fact that there is no private bathroom, the Sikkim settlement is definitely a rich family.

"This is Kacina and Cilic, my daughter and grandson." Dimitri brought two iron buckets and raised his hand: "Let's sit down and talk—I'm not going to bring you tea just after drinking—though I don't have tea either, you shouldn't mind, garbage guy." ”

"No problem."

At a glance, Li Oz noticed the woman on the bed, or rather, the swaddling clothes she was holding in her arms.

When the baby noticed that an outsider was coming, he was frightened, his eyes were closed, and he was about to cry.

"Shhhh Hush! Dimitri's daughter, Kazina, shook the baby and whispered, "Don't make a fuss, Cilic—grandpa is entertaining guests." ”

"We have no ill will." Qiu Ran also reassured: "Don't be afraid, little girl, we are all good people...... Well, at least I am. ”

However, Qiu Ran's gentleness did not make the baby stop crying, and he still whimpered.

"It doesn't seem to work." Qiu Ran said distressedly.

"I'm sorry to let you see that." Dimitri scratched his half-bald head in embarrassment: "Kaya, can you make Cilic quieter?" At least coax ......"

"Oh, of course! If Dad could not bring any outsiders in the future, Cilic would be very quiet and calm, as quiet as a snow fox. Kacina replied angrily.

"Whoa, whoa, a......a

The baby's cry was full of uneasiness, and it kept kicking its hands and feet, and it was useless to let the mother call for comfort.

Leoz's eyes flickered, and he stood up and walked over to Kazina.

The mother subconsciously shrank back, still apprehensive about the prestige of the garbage guy.

Qiu Ran hurriedly grabbed Li Aozi, and for a moment in her mind, she thought of the other party's previous move of killing three people in a row and not hesitating in the face of roulette.

So she hurriedly whispered: "Li Oz, this is a child, you don't-"

"Let me try."

However, Li Oz only said slowly. He leaned down and took off his hood and mask, revealing a young and handsome face, his gray eyes full of intimacy that was diametrically opposed to this outfit, which made Kacina unconsciously let her guard down.

She hesitated for a moment, then reached out and placed the swaddling baby in Lioz's arms, his movements gentle and steady, holding the baby in his arms.

Qiu Ran's worried gaze gradually turned into surprise.

Li Oz did nothing, and the child magically closed his mouth, not crying or making a fuss, but opened his eyes wide and looked at him curiously with blue eyes.

"Hey!"

The next moment, the baby laughed, and he reached out to Leoz as if he wanted to touch him.

"Shh......h Cilic, quiet. ”

Li Aozi raised his index finger, gently shook the swaddling clothes, and said softly:

"Don't cry yourself too tired, too tired. You're going to sleep slowly, sleep slowly......"

Little Cilic grew sleepy in the crooks of his arms and humming, and he relaxed, stretched his limbs, and rested his head on Leoz's arm, and fell asleep peacefully.

Li Oz handed the baby back to Kakina, and the other party's expression was complicated, but he still said:

"Thank you."

Dimitri held his knee and thought thoughtfully:

"Looks like little Cilic likes you very much."

"I've always been very popular with babies," said Leoz shrugged, "It was a long time ago, those babies and kids, and they felt very familiar when they saw me – no longer any older." ”

"Children are always very simple, they know who is good to them, and they will like each other." Dimitri glanced at him meaningfully, "What should I call you, garbage guy?" ”

"Leoz."

He said casually and sat down.

"I'm Dimitri Oskilovich Moskufo. As you can see, I'm a craftsman who knows a little bit of everything. ”

He pointed to his bright yellow eyes again:

"This is my arcane power, which I call the [Eye of Destiny], which allows me to see the length of a person's life."

"Cool." "Whoever can see death, you should have suffered a blow that is far heavier than death," said Rio. ”

"You're right." Dimitri glanced at his daughter: "It also cost me my son-in-law, Kachina's lover, Cilic's father, Shaw." ”

He shook his head and said, "The life span of a person is already predestined, but what can we still record in our lifetime, so that the dead can continue in another way." ”

"For example?" Li Oz's heart moved, and he knew that the key part was coming.

"Like this."

Dimitri took out a small box from the bedside table and opened it in front of Leoz, revealing a ring of fine workmanship with a unique appeal.

If you look closely, you can also notice that the surface of the ring has a special white porcelain plating.

"Xiao." Dimitri said: "This is what he used his own ribs to grind to ash and attached to the ring. At the end of his life, he poured all his heart and love into it. ”

The attributes of the ring were immediately presented in front of Li Oz:

[Item Name]: Xiao's masterpiece

[Category]: Jewelry/rings

[Quality]: Flawless treasures

[Attribute]: Charisma +7

Perpetuation: If the user is a relative of the maker, the chance of being hit by bullets is reduced by 50%.

【Introduction】:

"I'm sorry I can't be by your side, but I will always protect you, and death can't stop me from protecting my loved ones."

A masterpiece that embodies the immortal will of a dying man.

————————————

It is no exaggeration to say that in the early stage, this is a well-deserved artifact.

In the early stage of the version cap of level 30, even if the perpetual effect is discarded, the attached 7 points of charm are enough to make ordinary [mutants] have a qualitative transformation.

As for Li Oz, his basic [Charm] is as high as 21 points, and after adding 7 points, he has 30% of the income from the [Sustainability Love Hunting] specialty. In the end, it is equivalent to 36.4 [Charm]!

It's not just the alpha level, it's close to the beta level.

But in fact, this flawless treasure-level jewelry is not the purpose of Li Oz.

Dimitri put the ring away, took out a thick stack of notes and materials from the table, and handed it to Leoz.

"You've seen the power of that thing."

Dimitri said solemnly:

"This is a masterpiece that only a dying man can create, and you have such a calamity, but it is also an opportunity—even if your death comes. Your existence, your soul will still live on earth. ”

"This is the secret of the Death Craftsman."

[You got the "Notes on the Creation of Souls"]

[Hint: Dimitri shared with you the inheritance of the profession of life - "craftsman". 】

[You must have the necessary professional knowledge to find a job within one month.] Otherwise, this career mission will be considered a failure, and you will not be able to re-select this type of life occupation within 24 months. 】

[Do you accept it?] 】

"I accept."

Li Oz borrowed the heavy notebook and quickly flipped through it, and all kinds of techniques instantly flooded into his mind, how to deal with various materials, how to design drawings......

The huge amount of knowledge made Li Oz slightly stunned, and it was not until Dimitri opened his mouth that he came to his senses.

"I will always stay here and feel free to come to me if you have any questions."

Dimitri said, sitting down at the workbench:

"Of course, I also have some good goodies here, and the jewelry of the infusion is my forte, and I have a lot of things here, even if I am a garbage guy, I can look at it - this is for a fee."

Li Oz nodded, he saw that Dimitri's favorability was also showing, and it was currently 65 points, which was okay.

As the favorability increases, Dimitri will sell some very good equipment in the future. Of course, Li Oz's purpose was to abduct the old man entirely.

In the future, when the players come, they will definitely have a headache how to find jewelry equipment, and Li Oz plans to buy it in bulk from Dimitri first, and resell it to the players to earn the difference.

In the future, when the favorability increases, it is a great benefit to invest directly in Dimitri and let him sell it under his own name, or if he has a successful life and professional training, he will directly make and sell it to players.
