Chapter 66: Avoiding the Edge for a While
Therefore, there are countless forces living in this place, and they can bring great wealth to Beicheng every day.
Hans, as the deputy commander of one of the corps, came to the vicinity of the Gao Army's refuge because he was tracking a team of beast tides.
Along the way, they heard about this shelter from the mouths of many refugees and caravans, and this place was a holy place in the eyes of many caravans.
Not only is it populous, there is plenty of food, but there are also a lot of strange things.
Within a radius of 100 miles, most of the strongholds and caravans like to come here to trade.
So Hans was going to try his luck and bring his team here to see if he could make a deal.
"What does Mr. Hans mean that we will soon be attacked by a beast tide here?"
Gao Jun was a little unconvinced.
Although he knew about the existence of the beast tide, he had lived here for a while and had never seen it, so he didn't think about the beast tide at all.
Hans nodded: "We came to Yuma Continent after a beast tide team, and according to our analysis, in half a month, you will be hit by a medium-sized beast tide here." ”
When Yang Lao heard this, he collapsed directly to the ground.
"It's over, it's over, it's over!"
Gao Jun asked the old sheep to be helped up.
"What's wrong with you, old sheep?"
The old sheep said with a sad face: "The medium-sized beast tide has a scale of more than a thousand heads, and there will definitely be large beasts leading the team, such as xenomorph mammoths, xenomorph saber-toothed tigers, and so on!" ”
"In addition to large beasts, there are also quite a few medium-sized beasts, and although the combat power of the shelter is not weak, it is definitely not their opponent!"
Many refugees who had seen the horror of the beast tide showed desperate expressions one by one, and even Long Luan's expression became serious.
"Mr. Hans, you have come all the way to this place, and you will talk about business later, come on, take Mr. Hans down to rest."
With that, Gao Jun called Alice: "Treat them with the best things." ”
Alice was a little unhappy: "They are not people from the Vault, why should they be so nice to them." ”
"Just listen to me."
Although Alice was reluctant, she still did what Gao Jun said.
Gao Jun convened a high-level meeting non-stop.
"Among you, who knows more about the power of the Night's Watch in the North City, and how much do you know about the beast tide?"
The Night's Watch of the North City is unfamiliar to most of the native-born natives.
But for a well-informed person like Hannah, that's a big deal.
"The night watchman is not simple, and some people even rumor that they are the most powerful legion in this continent, and if they want to become a night watchman, the conditions are very harsh, but the treatment is also very good, I heard that in the northern city, every night watchman soldier will get a brick house."
The brick house is only lived in by the nobles in the city in Yumazhou.
But in Beicheng, even ordinary soldiers can have a set.
If it weren't for the fact that this place was too far away from Beicheng, and there were many dangers along the way, even Gao Jun himself would have wanted to go over and participate.
"Then their words today are somewhat credible."
Hannah said in a deep voice, "Defending against the tide of beasts is used by the Night's Watch to mix rice, and they should not dare to smash their own rice bowls." ”
Gao Jun frowned.
"But I've lived here for a long time, and I've never seen a beast tide."
"In this way, Long Luan, you send a few people with good foot strength to scout around and see if there is really a beast tide."
Long Luan nodded, turned his head and went to do it.
"As for Hans, treat them well, maybe they will be of great use in the future."
"The Führer is trying to win them over."
As the first person to follow Gao Jun's side, Allen naturally understands what Gao Jun thinks.
"You see that?"
"It's impossible, the night watchman is treated so well, how can he look at our place?"
Indeed, compared to the North City, the Vault is almost like a garbage shelter.
But Gao Jun is confident that in the near future, this will definitely become a place that will not lose to Yumazhou and Beicheng!
Although this dream is still a little far away.
The problem of the beast tide made Gao Jun a little restless, and he couldn't sleep when he returned to the room.
In order to relieve the pressure, Gao Jun simply came to a few ten-consecutive pumps.
But after the draw, his mood became even worse.
"lottery system, the product of capitalists!"
Scolding, Gao Jun slowly fell asleep.
On the other hand, Hans was amazed at the shock of the shelter.
He didn't expect that such an inconspicuous place would be able to eat watermelon, which was only available to nobles.
This thing, even in Beicheng, can only be eaten during the season.
There is also the thing called White Rabbit Milk Candy, which I have never seen before.
Eat one, and the aftertaste is endless.
Of course, the most unexpected thing is something called beer.
As a man, Hans naturally likes wine, but there is no wine that gives him the same refreshing feeling as beer.
How did he know that these things that were valued by them were all drawn by Gao Jun at a great price.
"Sir, what do you think of this Führer, I think he seems to have a lot of eyes, and there is a high probability that this business will not be done."
"If you want me to say, just go to Yumazhou, there are many rich people there, why waste time in such a place."
Hans sighed.
"Have you forgotten how we were sent to this barren land, not to mention that at least three corps have already gone to Yuma Continent, and even if we pass, we can't compete with them."
Don't look at the night watchman outside, who seems to be indescribably beautiful and awe-inspired.
But there are actually a lot of internal disputes.
Otherwise, with Hans's ability, he should not have traveled thousands of miles to such a place where birds don't.
Just because he offended a powerful person in Beicheng!
Hans drank the beer dry in one gulp, then shouted to the staff of the supply and marketing cooperative: "Bring me another bottle!" ”
The corners of the man's mouth twitched slightly, and he was distressed.
But Gao Jun had an order, and he could only endure the unhappiness in his heart and opened a bottle for Hans.
Chapter 67: Beast Tide Crisis
Early the next morning, the people sent out by Gao Jun returned to the shelter with ugly faces.
When Gao Jun saw it, he chuckled in his heart.
"How's it going, how about the request?" Gao Jun asked, and handed the other party a bottle of Arctic Ocean.
The leader was a man named Liu Xiang, who ran so fast that even some xenomorph beasts couldn't outrun him.
So many times, the task of running errands is left to him.
This guy's physical strength is also very amazing, it is said that in order to avoid a marauder chasing him, he ran wildly for a long time, and as a result, he ran to death with two marauders.
He is also a celebrity among refugees.
After drinking it dry, Liu Xiang hiccuped unsatisfactorily.
"My lord, the situation is not right, I did as those night watchmen said, and ran all the way to the Forbidden Forest, and sure enough, I found that there were many more creatures around that we did not have here, and it seems that they should have migrated from the north."
Forbidden Forest, the most dangerous place in this area.
Even Yumazhou, which has a super strong armed force, does not dare to set foot in this place easily.
Because here, not only are there many xenomorph beasts, but also the dense forest is full of poisoning and miasma, and human beings will definitely die if they enter it.
So it's always been a forbidden place in this area.
Now that there are many uncommon species near the Forbidden Forest, it seems that what the night watchman said is most likely true.
What Gao Jun didn't want to happen, it still happened.
The beast tide appeared when the shelter was gradually taking shape.
After yesterday's meeting, Gao Jun already had a general understanding of the beast tide.
It's still hot here, and the animals can't stand the weather, so they choose to stay for a while near the relatively cool forbidden forest.
But as long as it cools down here, I'm afraid the beast tide will come.
The heat here won't last long.
As soon as the time passes, there will be hundreds of beasts facing here!
Headache.
Gao Jun calculated the strength of the current refuge.
If it's a small beast tide of a hundred scale, the strength of the shelter should be able to deal with it.
However, according to the analysis of the results of Liu Xiang's investigation, it is very likely that the beast tide is a medium-sized beast tide with more than 1,000 numbers as Hans said.
The power of the Vault is a bit insufficient.
So there are only two paths in front of Gao Jun's eyes.
One is to work with Hans and ask the Night's Watch to help deal with the beast tide.
Of course, it's certainly not free.
There is also the option of abandoning this place and choosing another shelter.
It's fine if it's not large.
Now, in addition to the employees of the Roaring Legion and the major factories, there are many ordinary members alone.
Moving territory in a short period of time, not to mention not finding a suitable place, even if it is found, it is a small project.
Maybe before the move is finished, the beast tide will arrive.
So at the moment, cooperation seems to be the best solution.
"By the way, my lord, I have one more thing to tell you here."
Liu Xiang walked up to Gao Jun and muttered.
……
A few minutes later, Gao Jun took the initiative to find Hans.
In the face of Gao Jun, Hans once again resumed the coldness of yesterday's meeting, and did not have the gaffe of drinking with his subordinates last night.
"Your Excellency, I think you should have sent someone to find out."
Gao Jun didn't deal with the other party: "That's right." ”
"Then the Führer should believe me now, the beast tide will come soon."
"Yes."
Hans finally smiled slightly, "Then we can start negotiating the price." ”
"The price? No, I'll cover your food and drink here, so you don't have to pay for it. ”
The corners of Hans's mouth twitched slightly: "The Führer misunderstood, I didn't mean that, I mean let's discuss the price of resisting the beast tide." ”
Gao Jun looked at Hans with a puzzled expression.
"Captain Hans, I think you're mistaken."
"Misunderstanding? What does the Führer mean. ”
Gao Jun's words were astonishing.
"I don't mean to hire Captain Hans."
“……”
Gao Jun's decision was something Hans never expected.
"Lord Führer, you have to think about it carefully, the matter of the beast tide can be big or small, I saw your garrison here yesterday, although it is far stronger than the ordinary stronghold, but if you want to resist the medium-sized beast tide with more than a thousand numbers, you can't do it anyway."
Gao Jun faced the aggressive Hans and remained silent.
"You don't need to worry about this, Captain Hans, if you like it here, play for a few more days, and eat and drink are mine. If Captain Hans wants to do business, he should ask somewhere else. ”
Hans felt a little bitter in his heart.
Where else could he go?
Yumazhou has long been preempted by other peers, and there is no meat for himself to eat.
The other strongholds, on the other hand, simply couldn't come up with enough supplies in exchange for their help.
You must know that although the treatment of the night watchman is good, the task is no less difficult.
Each corps has indicators.
Soon it was time for Hans to submit his mission targets, but the place was so poor that he had not been able to meet them until now.
In this way, they will not be able to get the support of the relevant departments in Beicheng, and they will not be able to get advanced equipment and medicines.
Without those, their combat effectiveness will be greatly reduced, and they may not even be able to return home, and they will be killed by the fierce beasts that can be seen everywhere.
He originally thought that by scaring and scaring Gao Jun with a medium-sized beast tide, he would be able to win this list smoothly.
But who knew that Gao Jun actually rejected them.
"Your Excellency, do you want to watch the refugees of the Vault die here! You keep saying that this is a place where human rights are held, but you, the Führer, despise life so much! ”
Gao Jun did not panic at all in the face of Hans's questioning.
"I didn't expect Captain Hans to learn a lot of things in one night."
Hans's face flushed slightly.
"Führer, now is not the time to joke, everyone's lives are at stake, you better think about it!"
"Don't think about it, we'll solve this matter ourselves, Captain Hans, if there is nothing else to do, I'll leave, there are still a lot of things waiting for me to do in the shelter."
After saying that, without giving Hans a chance to speak, Gao Jun left.
"You ......"
Looking at Gao Jun's back, Hans couldn't say a word when he was choked.
"Commander, what am I talking about, this guy is simply a dime!"
"Alas, it seems that we can only try our luck in Yumazhou."
Hans and the others were helpless and silently left the shelter.
As soon as they left, Long Luan found Gao Jun.
"Führer, I don't understand why you didn't ask for the help of the Night's Watch."
Long Luan is one of the few people under Gao Jun who has been attacked by the beast tide, and he knows the power of the beast tide.
The Shangshan Villa where he was before was destroyed by the attack of a small beast tide.
This time, they had to face a medium-sized beast tide, although the combat power here was far stronger than that of Shangshan Villa.
But the level of the beast tide is not comparable.
However, Gao Jun refused Hans's help.
