- Sam and Gerry arrived at Xiata Town after they separated from Zhang Tie in Eskil City. After waiting in Xiata Town for a few days, the two of them teamed up with a large group of pioneers and arrived here.
The experience of the two people was not complicated. After arriving here, the two people and other pioneers began to try to enter the underground of the glacier crevices to try their luck in finding urban ruins. Through constant attempts and groping, the two people and their The team members gradually figured out some of the underground conditions, so ten days ago, after some preparations, Sam and Gerry went underground with some other pioneers, and only came out today.
Although this ten-day exploration could not be said to have a narrow escape, it also encountered many dangers and twists and turns, large or small, and everyone was tortured to the point of embarrassment.
What made everyone even more depressed was that they finally found something underground, but when they returned to the surface, half of it was forcibly taken away. Facing the powerful force of the tribal alliance, their group of pioneers had no choice or bargaining room - either they were killed and lost everything, or they survived and handed over half of their things.
This is why Zhang Tie found them all dejected when he saw them just now.
"You actually harvested something from below, I wonder what it is?" Upon hearing that Sam and Gerry actually harvested something underground, Zhang Tie suddenly became interested. This interest did not come from greed, but from pure curiosity. .
Hearing Zhang Tie¡¯s question, Sam and Gerry looked at each other, and neither of them had any hesitation. He took out something from the storage bag he carried with him and gave it to Zhang Tie.
Zhang Tie first took the thing from Sam¡¯s hand and it was quite heavy. When I took it into my hand and took a closer look, I saw that it was a lifelike little deer made of metal. It was a handicraft. Although the surface was a little mottled, it generally maintained the luster of the metal and its shape was very complete.
This thing, according to current standards, is about 900 to 1000 years old. It is obviously a cultural relic from before the Cataclysm. Before the Cataclysm, human technological civilization could do many things that cannot be done today, and produce many products that cannot be produced in this era. For example, the metal coating process of the thing Zhang Tie is holding in his hand is not from this era. What people can control. Zhang Tie knew this as soon as he held something in his hand.
These things, in this era, have very high collection value. Many wealthy or wealthy people like to display several cultural relics from before the cataclysm to decorate their homes.
Based on Zhang Tie¡¯s vision, which he had honed in the grocery store in Black Flame City, the thing that Sam took out would be worth at least 30 gold coins if placed in the grocery store, of course. If the packaging is better, the place is changed, and a collector who likes these things is found, the price of this thing may reach more than 70 gold coins or higher.
"Yes, this thing has at least fully paid for your travel expenses to the ice and snow wasteland. There is still some leftover!" Zhang Tie nodded and returned the thing to Sam.
Sam sighed sadly. "It was originally a pair, but those bastards from the Tribal Alliance took one away when they came out from below!"
Zhang Tie smiled and took Gerry's thing. Gerry's thing was a little strange. It was about the size of a palm, and its surface was already rusty, but it was still clear that there were some digital buttons on the surface.
Zhang Tie doesn¡¯t know what this thing is, but it is probably a product of human technology before the Cataclysm. The valuation of this kind of cultural relic with a strong color of human technology and civilization before the Cataclysm fluctuates greatly, ranging from a few silver coins to thousands of gold coins. These things involve too much professional knowledge and are relatively unpopular. Zhang Tie can¡¯t tell how much they are worth.
After saying that it was good, Zhang Tie returned the thing on his hand to Gerry.
"By the way, Peter, why are you here and so close to those Slavs in the ice and snow wasteland?" At this time, Gerry had already discovered that there seemed to be a lot of pioneers around him and Zhang Tie. Many people There are countless people surrounding this place in the distance. The situation seems a little wrong. If they are watching the excitement, those people should leave. But now, those people's eyes seem to be focused on Peter, one by one. Seemingly a little afraid, he touched Sam quietly, and Sam also noticed.
Zhang Tie didn't care about the pioneers. Zhang Tie noticed the pioneers when they started to gather around him. However, out of confidence in his own strength, he acted very indifferently. This indifference was reflected in the indifference of those pioneers. In his eyes, there was a calm and outstanding temperament, and those people did not dare to approach easily.
"After I separated from you at the dock, I arrived at Eskil City and met a man in the city.My enemy, I killed him, and then I was wanted by the police station of Eskil City. Then I escaped from Eskil City and wandered in the ice and snow wasteland for a while before I was caught by a bounty hunter. , so my current identity is actually someone else¡¯s prisoner and thatthatprivate property! "Zhang Tie scratched his head and said, clearly explaining his current identity in two sentences.
It didn't matter if Zhang Tie didn't say it. When he said this, both Sam and Gerry's eyes widened. It wouldn't be surprising even if Zhang Tie said that he was the son-in-law of a Slav at this moment. With Zhang Tie's pretty face, it was still a big deal. It was really possible, but what Zhang Tie told them - prisoners, made the two people shocked by Zhang Tie's answer.
"You said you are a prisoner of those Slavs now. Damn it, no way. You are riding a saber-toothed beast, holding a beautiful woman, and there is a large group of bodyguards behind you. I think those Slav soldiers are still very kind to you. Respect, is this the treatment of prisoners? If this is the treatment of prisoners, please ask them if they still need prisoners!" Gerry suddenly shouted.
This guy Sam glanced at Zhang Tie with some embarrassment, and his tone was full of envy, "The woman you were holding just now is really very beautiful, and has big breasts! Such a woman even in the ice and snow There aren¡¯t many wastelands!¡±
"Yes. And I can tell at a glance that you two are definitely having an affair. Are Slavs accustomed to giving away their beauties to their captives?"
Looking at the shocked expressions of these two guys, Sam and Gerry. Zhang Tie laughed and said, "Of course that's not the case. First of all, I am actually a bit special as a prisoner. I only killed one bastard in Eskil City, but now the wanted order issued by Eskil City for me makes me feel guilty." I was carrying three lives, and there was some misunderstanding on the warrant. I took the blame for others. Secondly, they probably found out that I had some value, so they were kind to me! I met that woman because of an accident. She didn¡¯t know the identity of my prisoner at the time, but she found out later, but it didn¡¯t matter because of the first two reasons!¡±
Zhang Tie explained the reason succinctly, and Sam and Gerry finally understood. Everyone couldn't help but marvel, Zhang Tie's series of encounters in the ice and snow wilderness can be regarded as adventures.
"By the way, what are you going to do now?" Sam asked Zhang Tie.
"I haven't decided yet. It's not bad to stay here anyway. Maybe I will stay here for a few more days, and then leave after the wanted order is lifted!" Zhang Tie thought about it seriously and said, " what about you?"
"We plan to stay here for a while longer!" Gerry glanced at Sam, then moved his head closer to Zhang Tie and looked around. He lowered his voice very low, "Sem and I discovered that the ruins this time may be a huge treasure. A GSC."
Sam looked at Zhang Tie. When Gerry said this, Sam nodded solemnly.
GSC? This title made Zhang Tie stunned. Although he, a pioneer who had become a monk on the way, could often imitate the pioneers very vividly, he was not a real pioneer. He knew some of the secret codes and inherited knowledge among the pioneers. There were not as many senior pioneers as there were, so when Gerry said this word, Zhang Tie was a little unable to react.
"What is GSC?" Zhang Tie asked Gerry in a low voice.
"Hasn't anyone told you about this kind of knowledge before?" Gerry glanced at Zhang Tie in surprise.
"No, I haven't been a pioneer for a long time, and I'm used to living alone, so I don't know much about many things!" Zhang Tie shook his head.
"Do you know the Star of God?"
"Know!"
"The so-called GSC refers to the city where fragments of the Star of God fell during the great cataclysm. Because of the strange energy of the Star of God, wherever it falls, its fragments will form a strange space-time energy. Field, in this energy field, all inanimate matter will remain the same no matter how long it takes, without leaving any traces of time. GSC means the super relic brought by the Star of God. Do you know what this means? "?" Gerry said with twinkling eyes.
Zhang Tie was stunned, as if he couldn't believe what he just heard, because if this is the case, it means it means that somewhere under this ice and snow wasteland, there may be something hidden. A city or part of it that remains intact before the Cataclysm. Everything in this city that is inanimate remains exactly as it was on the day of the Cataclysm.
"How did you come to this conclusion?"
¡°It started out as just a guess and a lucky hope, because this timeThe discovery of ruins in the ice and snow wasteland and the legendary location where the fragments of the Star of God were found are too close. Although there have been many precedents of fragments of the Star of God being found near ruins before the Cataclysm, those ruins were not found during the Cataclysm. It has been completely destroyed. Although the special energy field of the God Star fragments can prevent the things in the ruins from leaving traces of time, if the ruins themselves are seriously damaged and destroyed due to other reasons, the value of the things in the ruins will be It¡¯s not too high either! "
Zhang Tie nodded while listening. He remembered that he had just arrived in Ewendalla and heard the reaction of the pioneers when they discovered the ruins and the Star of God in the Wilderness House bar. He then contacted the tribal alliance and suddenly went to war to destroy the ruins. The action of blocking the entrance suddenly seemed to understand something. The pioneers were excited for a faint hope. As for the tribes in the southern part of the ice and snow wasteland, some big figures in these tribes may have learned about it from certain channels. Some information, so he suddenly became jealous, and suddenly went to war and sent troops to occupy the entrance to the ruins - one or part of the ruins of the city before the cataclysm that could be completely preserved. Its value may be more than ten times greater than ordinary ruins. To an ordinary ruins. The big guys in the tribe may look down on such a small amount of money, but if there is a GSC here, then everything will be different. No one will dislike their own money.
Seeing Zhang Tie deep in thought, Sam quietly put a small ball of something hidden in his sleeve into Zhang Tie's hand.
Zhang Tie looked at the thing. It was just a piece of garbage, but its material was a bit strange. It looked like paper but also looked a bit like the material he had seen before when the Norman Empire made his military officer's ID card. It was red and felt very flexible in his hand. It seemed to be the packaging of something, but he was a little unsure.
"What's this?"
"The wrapping paper of ham sausage, the wrapping paper of ham sausage before the Cataclysm. This kind of paper was called plastic before the Cataclysm. Such wrapping paper, if it were not in the special energy field of the Star of God, would have experienced such a long period of time. Time, it can't be so well preserved, and more importantly, the contents of this wrapping paper seem to have been eaten, which Sam found in a hidden corner underground four days ago!"
"Did you find this thing underground?" Zhang Tie's expression became solemn.
"Yes, we don't know who threw this thing, but it is obvious. Someone has discovered something underground, and the preservation of those things is definitely beyond most people's imagination. The guy who threw this thing down, It may be that when he wanted to come out from below, he ran out of food, so he had to take out the food he got below and eat it. At this time, the guy who left this thing behind, Either he has made a fortune and taken the most valuable thing he found and flew away, completely away from this place of right and wrong, or he is still here somewhere preparing to come back for the second time. Or it is also possible that he was killed by someone else! "
"You want to have a try?"
"This kind of opportunity is what every pioneer dreams of. How can you be willing to do it if you don't win it once!"
¡°Peter, let¡¯s do it together!¡±
"Sem and I have both remembered the underground passage where this thing was found. As long as we prepare here for a few more days and explore along that underground passage, we will definitely gain something!"
"Wait for me to think about it, okay? My current identity is a bit sensitive. If I want to act alone, it may bring some unpredictable dangers and troubles to you two!" Zhang Tie thought about it carefully and did not immediately agree to the two of them. , but did not refuse. What attracted Zhang Tie at this time was not so much the wealth in the ruins, but the GSC, which might still have intact the appearance of the city before the cataclysm, the super ruins created by the Star of God. .
¡¡
After chatting with the two people for a while, telling them some things they should pay attention to at this time, and promising to give them some necessary help, Zhang Tie was ready to get up and leave.
Seeing Zhang Tie about to leave, the group of pioneers who had been surrounding him in the distance made a slight commotion. A pioneer in his sixties, surrounded by several people, walked towards Zhang Tie from the crowd.
"Mr. Peter, I am very grateful for everything you did that day. You saved many people's lives. Because of you, many of our companions did not shed their blood and sacrifice in vain!" The elderly pioneer gave Zhang Tie a Etiquette used to show respect - cross your arms and lower your head slightly.
"You're welcome!" Zhang Tie nodded.
When the two people were talking, Zhang Tie saw that all the pioneers around Ao had become quiet, and Zhang Tie knew that the old man must have something to say to him.
?"I heard that you are also a pioneer?"
"Not bad! If you have anything to say, just say it"
The elderly pioneer looked around, then gritted his teeth, "After just discussing with the leaders of the various pioneers, we have an unkind request. We would like to ask Mr. Peter to be the leader of all the people gathered in the ruins at the moment. The general leader of all the pioneers in the canyon! Lead us to complete the excavation of the ruins."
The pioneers are a relatively loose organization, but many pioneers in this organization will automatically group together to form some temporary pioneer teams that gather for certain goals. The leader of the team is the team leader. Because they are usually loose, once the pioneers gather together, they will pay great attention to the group's mobility and the leader's authority. This gives the team leader great authority in these temporarily formed teams. Such authority is already comparable to the power of the leaders of many paramilitary organizations.
When the army of the tribal alliance expelled these pioneers, it was the pioneers led by several team leaders who confronted the army of the tribal alliance. In this process, the personal will of those team leaders played a big role. .
The general leader of these pioneers? Zhang Tie did not expect that these pioneers would actually make this request to him, which surprised Zhang Tie very much.
You must know that in addition to having great power, the general leader of a pioneer team also has 3% of the distribution rights of the wealth discovered by the entire team. Look at the seven or eight thousand pioneers gathered in the ruins canyon. This 3% The amount of wealth distribution and the power of the general leader are not small.
"Have you thought about it?" Zhang Tie asked with a smile. Of course he knew what these people were thinking. Until now, Zhang Tie has never found any bastard spirit in himself. Generally speaking, he will not share in such good things.
The old man and several people around him nodded together.
"Okay, I accept it!"
Smiles just appeared on the faces of several people, and Zhang Tie¡¯s next words made their smiles freeze on their faces.
"The first order I give now is for everyone to squat down with their heads in their hands and imitate the frog's jumps a hundred times!"
Looking at the dull expressions and motionless looks of those people, Zhang Tie sighed, and the wise brilliance in his eyes almost made those people dare not look directly at him, "So, in fact, you haven't thought about it, right? The tribal alliance is starting to fight with you. The terms offered will not change just because of me!¡±
After saying this, Zhang Tie didn¡¯t say anything else and left the pioneer camp directly.
¡¡
Zhang Tie had been thinking about the underground ruins all the way. He had just returned to the Gray Eagle Tribe, and Aurora's first words when he saw him made Zhang Tie realize that he actually didn't need to think about anything.
"You've been living quite a life these days!" Aurora sneered, her voice was hard, "But don't forget, you are my private property and you have to obey my orders. I will now officially inform you to prepare. , enter the entrance of the underground ruins with me tomorrow!" - Didn't finish reading?
