Chapter 225 Waste Utilization
With the two world fragments connected, the map of Fortress Town has once again expanded to a large area.
The terrain of Ranch Town is very good, with forests, grasslands and even a small area of mountains.
Various animals are kept in different terrains according to different habits.
Chubby piglets, cows grazing leisurely, chickens and ducks with bright feathers, and fish ponds that have just been cleaned...
It can be said that this small piece of world is like a small zoo, and every animal is well maintained.
It's no wonder that Wang Youfu and the others are able to reap the benefits of the Internet. God knows how much effort they put into just raising these free-range animals clean and healthy.
After adding this pasture, the map of the entire fortress town turned into a clover shape.
The largest leaf is of course the original fortress town, while the smaller leaf is made up of other smaller fragments that were incorporated.
The last medium-sized leaf is naturally the ranch town that just merged in.
At this time, both the residents of Fortress Town and the residents of Ranch Town were immersed in joy.
In addition to the factors of the victorious meeting, people's joy was mostly due to the rain, a light rain that fell a few days ago.
In the past, the sky in the fortress town would only show the monotonous alternation of the sun and the moon. There were few clouds, and there was no wind. As for rain, let alone rain, it was completely non-existent.
After experiencing the merger of multiple small world fragments, in addition to a lot of different terrains and landscapes, even the weather system of the fortress town began to become more realistic.
But as more and more world fragments are being merged, it actually started to rain a few days ago!
Although it stopped quickly, it gave the survivors a shot in the arm...
This gave them a glimmer of hope to return to the past!
If more and more world fragments can be merged, or even all the world fragments can be collected, does that mean that a world can be pieced together again? ?
Under such a possibility, every successful merger will boost everyone's confidence, except for a certain unhappy level 10 awakener.
…
In the distance, in a piece of grass far away from the lively crowd, the white-haired young man was staring at the lively crowd... His brows tightened, and his face was full of unhappiness.
This white-haired young man is a survivor brought by the "High-rise World" when it was merged into Fortress Town.
The other people who were with them at that time had already integrated into the fortress town, and some even began to use their specialties and even hold various positions.
However, only the white-haired young man was "squeezed" into the ranks of cleaners who could only contribute their strength.
Of course, it was what he thought was "ostracism".
Although he is said to be a "level 10 strong man", this kind of strength is really not considered powerful in Fortress Town.
In addition, he was unwilling to patrol and had no other skills, so he was eventually assigned to be a cleaner.
After all, before the end of the world, he was just a social idler. After the end of the world, he suddenly felt the feeling of being superior to others, and even became the actual ruler of the "high-rise world" because of his strength.
Although the cost of food and clothing is far less than that of civilized times, and even water is somewhat scarce...but the more he is in such a turbulent environment, the more powerful he is, the more attractive he is.
I don't think I'm asking for anything from other survivors, but that's about it.
But now?
When order is restored, when someone provides real wealth and stability, the attraction of the white-haired young man will naturally plummet.
Not only did the female survivors completely cut off ties with him, but even his two followers joined the highly paid guard team.
Only the once strongest king had a very unsatisfactory life.
"Tch, what's so exciting? I'm so bored." The white-haired young man bit a piece of grass, clasped his hands behind his head, and looked at the crowd in the distance with disdain.
However, even he didn't realize how envious his expression was.
"Eh? Bai Mao? Why are you here? We are having a dinner there today, and there is a whole roast pig! Don't you want to try it?"
Suddenly, a voice sounded behind the white-haired young man.
"No, Xu, call, I..." The white-haired young man turned around word by word, and then when he saw the person behind him, he suddenly stopped talking.
Standing behind him was Zhang Jinyu with shawl hair.
She was holding a huge bamboo basket filled with washed and peeled potatoes.
"I, I didn't know it was you..." the white-haired young man stumbled.
"Sorry, I heard they call you Baimao... So what's your name?" Zhang Jinyu asked.
"Uh, just call me Baimao." The white-haired young man clenched his fists, "You...I..."
"They said you're in a bad mood these days, so you should take advantage of today's celebration to relax and unwind - there will be a beer at the end of the night!"
Zhang Jinyu smiled at him and continued walking forward holding a large basket of potatoes.
The white-haired young man looked at her back and opened his mouth as if he wanted to say something, but when the words reached his lips, he couldn't say anything at all.
At this moment, Zhang Jinyu suddenly turned around, her long shawl hair shining in the afterglow of the sun: "What are you waiting for? Why don't you follow me quickly?"
"Come on, come on!" The white-haired young man followed him involuntarily, peeking at Zhang Jinyu's side face from time to time.
Her face was as unpainted as always, fair and healthy, with perfect lines of eyebrows and eyes, not the kind of stereotyped beauty.
"Zhao Lili said that you haven't contacted them recently, and you've been sulking alone... Why? Is it because of work?"
Zhang Jinyu seemed to notice his gaze, and then asked in a very normal tone.
"That bitch... cousin, we have had some conflicts recently." The white-haired young man spoke up temporarily.
"Why?" Zhang Jinyu continued to ask.
"... Humph, they... she thinks I'm not strong enough." The white-haired young man said in a mocking tone, "There are countless strong people in Fortress Town. I am just an ordinary person with a 10th-level enhancement. What qualifications do I have to play with them?"
Although he said that he was an ordinary person, he obviously didn't think so in his heart.
"No, Fortress Town needs awakened people very much. Every awakened person is the most important force, and you are no exception."
Zhang Jinyu turned his head and looked at him seriously.
"I don't want to be a cannon fodder! You don't know how scary those... those things are!!" The white-haired young man seemed to have recalled some bad memories, his face full of fear, "I met a chicken before... a chicken as tall as a two-story building!"
"That damn thing is like a Tyrannosaurus Rex from the Jurassic period!"
"No, it's much more powerful than the Tyrannosaurus Rex! Even a feather gun can't penetrate it!"
"What awakeners are nothing in front of it... They are all one mouthful!"
"..."
I don't know if it's because he hasn't spoken for a long time and he wants to talk, or because he has been holding back a lot of complaints recently and has nowhere to release them, or because Zhang Jinyu's existence has opened up his chatterbox...
In short, through the words of the white-haired young man, we can understand some of the things he has experienced, which are also the things that the "High-rise World" has experienced.
These things are not secrets. After all, most of the other survivors in the "High-rise World" still remember that terrifying memory.
The "High-rise World" used to be really crowded and vast.
But with the appearance of a monster, the entire "High-rise World" was almost destroyed.
That monster is not a chicken, but a mutant pigeon.
It is difficult for non-professionals to identify it because of its completely different body shape and feathers, but one of the survivors of the "High-rise World" provided key evidence, proving that the monster was an ornamental pigeon that their boss had raised.
In the end, the staff of Fortress Town also believed this statement.
After all, the "High-rise World" is located in a commercial district in a prosperous area of the city. It is almost impossible for someone to raise chickens, but it is reasonable to raise pigeons.
However, this monster that came out of the "High-rise World" did not seem to appear in the previous battle that sieged Fortress Town.
It has never even been marked by the existence wave radar.
The staff speculated that the pigeon monster should be relatively weak and has been swallowed by other stronger monsters.
If this kind of monster appeared in Fortress Town, it would not even be enough for Zhang Jinyu to kill alone... But it was such a weak chicken monster that killed all the awakened people in the "High-rise World", and only the white-haired young man was left.
"... Don't you believe it?"
The white-haired young man, who had said a lot, found that Zhang Jinyu did not respond, and suddenly became excited.
"I believe it." Zhang Jinyu said softly.
"No, you don't believe it! The expression on your face did not change... You feel disdainful! You! You look down on me!!"
The white-haired young man roared.
"I don't." Zhang Jinyu stopped, turned around and looked at the white-haired young man seriously, "I will not look down on any survivors, because everyone who can live to this day has made great efforts."
"Looking down on other survivors is looking down on those thousands and thousands of people who have sacrificed, and looking down on that monument."
Zhang Jinyu said calmly.
The monument she was referring to was the Monument to the Unknown Heroes of the South Fifth Fortress.
However, the white-haired young man could not listen at all.
"Damn it!"
"You bitches don't understand anything!"
The white-haired young man's eyes gradually glowed red, and Zhang Jinyu's expression gradually became serious.
Putting the potato basket aside, Zhang Jinyu said coldly: "Calm down! You have to calm down... It is illegal to use abilities in the safe zone! Your previous conflict with other survivors has made your settlement points negative. If you continue to make trouble, you will be expelled..." "Calm down! Now!" Zhang Jinyu said sternly. "Fuck, I can't stand your arrogant face! What right do you have! Bah! I want to weigh your weight!!" The white-haired young man ignited a flame in his hand and suddenly attacked Zhang Jinyu. "Alas." Zhang Jinyu sighed, and seemed to suddenly become uninterested. "Stinky bitch! You look down on me! You still look down on me!!" The white-haired young man, who originally just wanted to teach her a lesson, suddenly made a fatal move. However... "Bang-" He flew back the same way he rushed up. Zhang Jinyu kicked him in the neck and knocked him out directly. The whole person fell to the ground like a piece of wood. "It failed as expected...Why?" Zhang Jinyu frowned.
"It's probably because your casual attitude damaged his self-esteem... After all, the characteristic he awakened is very unstable."
Xiao Jian suddenly fell from the sky - it turned out that he had been staying in the sky just now, watching the situation here through the [Destruction] feature.
Originally, Xiao Jian was going to be pulled by Zhang Weidong to say a few words, but when Zhang Jinyu found that the dissatisfied white-haired young man was wandering around, he ran to pull Xiao Jian over and help her sit in the rear...
But in fact, her strength can already crush the white-haired young man, whether in terms of combat experience or panel attributes, she crushes him in all aspects.
but……
Since she asked so, Xiao Jian happened to be a little worried about speaking in such a formal occasion, so he hit it off and ran over to watch the fun.
"...What are his characteristics?"
Zhang Jinyu looked at Xiao Jian and asked curiously.
"Well, it's called... [Fire of Anger]. Its effect is that it can summon flames to strengthen its basic attack. Its negative effect is that it will make his emotions unstable."
Xiao Jian scratched his head. This was the first time he had seen a characteristic with negative effects.
Before that, he thought that only those relics would have various negative characteristics... For example, his [Wolf Fang Necklace] was like this. Although it provided 2 points of attack power, its negative characteristics were that it made him want to howl when he saw the moon. Voice.
Although Xiao Jian is now very calm about howling at the Moon Wolf, it would still be a bit embarrassing if he did it in front of other people.
Therefore, in non-combat situations, Xiao Jian would probably not wear that necklace.
"Negative effects? Is there any way to alleviate them?" Zhang Jinyu frowned.
"It's almost impossible...unless there are similar relics that can be offset by positive characteristics." Xiao Jian replied.
"Then there's nothing we can do." Zhang Jinyu shook his head.
"...What do you want to do? Do you really want to exile him?" Xiao Jian was a little curious about this question.
"There's nothing we can do about it." Zhang Jinyu sighed, and then told Xiao Jian the whole story.
In fact, the reason is very simple, it is because the temporary military control status of Fortress Town has been lifted.
Yes, "temporary" martial law.
On the day when the apocalypse begins, it is "temporary" until it begins to merge with other world fragments.
After all, more and more people will join the big family of Fortress Town in the future.
But not everyone is a warrior, and it is impossible for everyone to have exactly the same interests.
This has led to the military control model in the fortress town that can easily lead to the accumulation of conflicts.
The solution is actually very simple, which is to lift martial law and then enact legislation.
In a sense, this is a big event, even the beginning of "re-establishing civilized order" that will be featured in history books.
However, for the current residents of Fortress Town, this is not just a matter of a big-character poster, nothing more.
Although the laws currently enacted are very simple, violation of each of them may result in severe punishment.
After all, in troubled times, heavy codes are needed.
As for unstable factors like the white-haired youth, it would be good if we can fight for them. If we can't fight for them, we should solve them as soon as possible.
So unfortunately, the white-haired young man personally ruined his stable life.
"Where are you going to exile him to?" Xiao Jian asked.
"Maybe it's a fragment of an uninhabited world, maybe it's somewhere else... What do you think?"
"When the verdict is handed down, I can take him away..." Xiao Jian suddenly felt that this man might be put to good use.
