Apocalypse Lord

Chapter 39: Collection team

Suddenly, players are like frightened birds, desperately storing food. The edible plants near Lingyun Village have been picked long ago.

After walking for ten minutes, I didn't see any ingredients.

Pang Yu was a little uneasy. If they can't find the resources, won't they be useless for players with "primary gathering"?

Without waiting for him to think about it, the guard said in a deep voice, "The enemy is attacking, ready to fight."

The player panicked and wanted to hide subconsciously.

Upon seeing this, Yun Ling shouted sternly, "Stand don't move!"

There are 6 NPCs in the front and 6 NPCs in the rear, just to protect the players. If they walk around at will and flee in different directions, the NPCs will not be able to take care of them.

The player hesitated for a while, barely restrained the fear deep in his heart, and stood still.

At this time, the five Dryads slowly walked towards the team.

There is no need for Yunling to speak, the mage casts offensive skills, the archer shoots arrows, the melee players are restrained, and the cooperation is extremely tacit!

Just after a face-to-face encounter, the Dryad was wiped out, leaving only a few dropped items floating in the air.

Pick up the armor one by one and put it into a cotton backpack.

Yun Ling calmly said, "Go on."

The players feel more at ease and follow the large forces forward.

After walking for a full half an hour and hitting monsters five times along the way, the group finally found a pepper field. The chili peppers are glowing red, growing well, and they look small and cute.

Looking over, Yunling announced, "Stop, pick the Chaotian pepper."

"What about after it is picked?" a female player asked boldly.

Yun Ling pointed to the armor, "Give it to him."

The players nodded, and then moved quickly.

I was used to picking. At first, I was nervous and unfamiliar, but I quickly became proficient after I put it in.

The npc is standing guard nearby, always paying attention to the surrounding movements.

Yunling observes calmly. In a short while, it will be clear who is doing quick work, who is procrastinating, who is in poor health, and who moves slowly.

Multi-person picking, high efficiency. After a few minutes, the peppers were lighted up.

Yunling stopped and looked into the distance. It didn't take long to choose the next target, "Go, go to the cornfield to pick corn."

In a blink of an eye, it was already 12 noon.

Yunling announced, "Take a one-hour break and have lunch by the way."

I can finally take a break. Pang Yu breathed a sigh of relief, and sat down in a vacant place next to him. In my heart, I was thinking that copper coins are really hard to earn.

Except when the guards are fighting monsters, they can stand and rest for a while.

After thinking about it, one person handed over a fist-sized multi-grain bun and a heavy bamboo tube, and said, "Let’s eat, this is lunch."

Pang Yu hadn't eaten for a day, and the only piece of dough was given to his wife. Seeing the multi-grain steamed buns at this moment, ignoring the others, he immediately took a bite.

The steamed buns are solid and the materials used are particularly sufficient. Although the taste is average, it is full, and the stomach will not be hungry immediately after eating.

Pang Yu gobbled it up, finished the steamed buns in a few mouthfuls, and then opened the bamboo tube.

I thought that the bamboo tube was filled with water, but when I opened it, I found out that it was filled with rice soup.

Rice soup, also called rice oil, is a thick liquid that floats on the surface during porridge cooking. Drinking with the fragrance of rice, it is very thirst quenching.

Pang Yu drank a tube of rice soup in one breath, and suddenly felt a sense of fulfillment in his belly, an indescribable satisfaction in his heart.

At this time, when I think back to my morning work, I don't think there is much anymore. What's so scary about being tired? What he fears most is hungry!

In the afternoon, thunderstorms suddenly fell.

Yunling did not let the players work in the rain. They found a cave nearby to shelter from the rain and waited until the rain stopped before they came out.

Looking at the sky, Yunling ordered, "Pick the bamboo shoots, mushrooms, bamboo leaves, liongrass, black rice, buckwheat, sorghum, and oats, and then go back the same way."

It rained for two full hours, during which time everyone stayed in the cave to rest and did nothing.

Pang Yu was a little guilty, the resources he collected were not too much, and he was a little sorry for the wages and rations paid by his employer.

Hearing that he was going to pick bamboo shoots, mushrooms and other materials, he was refreshed and planned to work hard to make up for the employer's losses.

**

Just after 5 o'clock in the evening, the group returned to the territory.

Yun Ling said in his heart, the bamboo tube has been recovered after lunch time is over. After the collection is completed, the materials are immediately handed over to the armor.

Then, as long as everyone handed over their hats and settled their daily wages, the employment would be completed successfully.

"Hand over the hat," she said.

Hearing this, Pang Yu did not hesitate to hand in the hat, and then received 10 copper coins salary and 2 black bread dinner.

Under his leadership, players began to take action one after another.

At this time, a cold sneer sounded, "You are not stupid! You can only get 10 copper coins for one day's work. You can sell at least 50 copper coins if you keep the hat to sell. This is a full five days' wages!"

Yunling sighed in her heart.

Before handing out the hat, she thought about it. Will the player feel greedy and refuse to return it if he takes the rain gear?

The possibility does exist, but she can't help it. Because no one can guarantee that players will catch a cold or fever if they are exposed to the rain for a long time.

These people are working for her anyway, and a safe working environment must be provided for them.

As for if someone has a black heart and a black lung--

"Be kind." Yun Ling's eyes were slightly cold, and his tone was deep, "Before I am not angry, hand over the hat. Otherwise...you will regret it."

The man chuckled, "Innocent!"

Yunling recognized the stabbing head. It was a female player named Huang Aixin. When I signed up, I said that there were old people at home and children at home, and the family was starving to death, so I must leave her a place in the team.

When I was actually working, I was swearing, it seemed that the work was too hard.

I acted swiftly during lunch, picking up the multi-grain buns and stuffing it into my stomach desperately. I was afraid that others would **** it from her. I didn't even think about leaving a bite for my family.

In addition, according to Yunling's observation, Huang Aixin is probably the least efficient among the ten players.

With all hands and feet, the work is not swift, and the resources collected are less than those of a fifteen or sixteen-year-old, thin and malnourished girl.

"I repeat, my patience is limited." Yunling said word by word, "You'd better not challenge my bottom line."

"I'm back to the territory, scare anyone!" Huang Aixin looked disdainful, "I said there are old people and children in the family that need to be raised, so you believe it? What a fool! Tell you, I am alone, I just need to keep my mouth open. , There is no drag from loved ones at all."

After all, she left with triumphant pride.

Yun Ling said nothing, the air pressure all over his body was terribly low.

"You, don't be angry." The fifteen-year-old girl tried to comfort her, "Most of us are actually very grateful to you. Not only do they give money, but they also provide lunch and dinner. The treatment is really good."

"I'm not angry." Yun Ling smiled suddenly, "This person will not appear in Lingyun Village in the future, so there is no need to be angry."

She seemed to say that there is no need to care about the dead.

The players couldn't help but shiver.

Except for Huang Aixin, everyone else obediently handed over the hat, either out of principle or out of awe. Then I got my daily salary and dinner, ready to leave.

Yunling's index finger tapped, "You, you, you... If you want to collect with the group tomorrow, you can come over."

"Why?" Before the selected people had time to cheer, one of the two who were not selected couldn't help but question.

"Why didn't you choose you, you don't know it in your heart?" Yunling was indifferent, "I walked all the way with bamboo shoots and mushrooms, aren't you tired?"

It is said that all the collected items should be handed in, and they should not be hidden.

The person's face was green and white, and immediately became aphasia.

He thought that he was doing it extremely secretly, but he didn't expect everyone to see it, but he didn't bother to care about it.

"What about me?" another person asked.

Yun Ling: "The collection efficiency will catch up with Huang Aixin. It's a pleasure to paddle. It's better to hire a little girl than to hire you."

As soon as the voice fell, the face of the questioner turned pale.

"Okay, let's all go away." Yunling waved his hand, "If you are willing to come, gather at the old time and place tomorrow, and you will still receive the same treatment."

After that, she took the npc and left without waiting for the player to reply.

Huang Aixin slipped too fast, and there was still no time to settle the accounts with her.

**

"Look, this is a brand new hat! One price, 80 copper coins!" After leaving the team, Huang Aixin turned around and found a potential customer, ready to sell the rain gear.

The other party was quite moved, but inevitably a little distressed, "80 copper coins are too expensive, cheaper."

"Don't be too expensive. Rain gear is in demand recently. Change individuals to pay for it in minutes." Huang Aixin said earnestly.

Seeing the other party's hesitation, she took the initiative to display the equipment attributes, and said in a seductive tone, "You see for yourself, is it brand new."

【Name: Hat (Rain Gear)】

Quality: Normal

Durability: 20/20

Wearing effect: stamina +1.

The quality is pretty good.

"All right." He just wanted to pay the bill, but saw a flash of white light, Huang Aixin disappeared.

"Where is the person?" The customer was dumbfounded.

At the same time, Huang Aixin received a system prompt, [You have been pulled into the "Lingyun Village" blacklist. 】

[You have lost your qualifications as a temporary resident of Lingyun Village. 】

【It is forbidden to enter the territory permanently in the future. 】

What's this all about? Huang Aixin was dumbfounded.

"Have I reminded you," Yunling walked out of the territory and said slowly, "My patience is limited?"

"What did you do?!" Huang Aixin sneered.

She never expected that she would be thrown out if she stayed in the safe zone.

I have offended the opponent before, and the player is not forbidden to use force outside the territory. Isn't this the end?

As for the threat, in her opinion, what the other party said is as undeterrent as "be careful of doing bad things and thunder and strike". Where did she know that the other party was not joking, but serious...

Looking back, Huang Aixin's intestines are all regretful. Why doesn't I have eyes and provokes people who can't be provoke!

"There are many more methods available to advanced players than you know." Yunling said coldly, "Hand over the hat, and I will spare your life. Otherwise, killing you and exploding the equipment is the same."

"Dare you! It's illegal to kill!" Huang Aixin tried to awaken the other's conscience.

However, Yunling didn't bother to talk to her at all. With a wave of his hand, the npc rushed out, picked up the wooden stick, and slapped it on his calf severely.

Huang Aixin let out a scream and immediately fell to the ground.

"If you take the initiative to hand it over, you can suffer less." Yunling warned.

Before the words finished, another stick hit Huang Aixin's back, causing pain.

Huang Aixin cried and howled, "I pay it back! Can't I return the hat to you!"

If she doesn't spit out the equipment, she is afraid that she won't survive tonight.

After speaking, Huang Aixin couldn't wait to throw the hat to the ground.

First Assassin picked up the hat, his eyes still glowing with cold.

A hint of chill rose in Huang Aixin's heart. She hurriedly shouted, "The equipment has been returned! I know it was wrong!"

A person who knows the current affairs is a brilliant man, and he should never hold on when he should bow his head and be soft.

Huang Aixin sobbed and explained, wanting to get through, "I'm so hungry, I have to lie to you..."

"I'm not interested in the reason." Seeing that the hat has been retrieved, Yun Ling said indifferently, "If you do bad things, you will get retribution. Consume the goodness of others at will, and be careful of lightning strikes."

Thunder and lightning flashed as he spoke, seeming to be struck by lightning.

Huang Aixin was afraid that the other party could actually summon thunder and lightning, and said with a shiver, "I dare not, never dare anymore."

Yun Ling took a deep look at Huang Aixin, then turned and left without reluctance, the action was extremely simple.

"Wait!" Huang Aixin was anxious, "I was permanently banned from entering Lingyun Village. Are you the one who made trouble?"

"The anger is out, and the equipment is taken away. Is it time to cancel the effect of the props?"

She mistakenly thought that Yunling relied on props to add players to the territorial blacklist.

"I said, you will regret it." Yunling stepped into Lingyun Village, turning a deaf ear to Huang Aixin's cry.

Outside the village.

Huang Aixin gritted her teeth and stood up and tried to enter the village.

[You have been drawn to the blacklist and permanently barred from entering the territory. 】

No matter how many times it is repeated, the system will give the same prompt coldly and ruthlessly.

Huang Aixin stood outside the territory, staring blankly at the players making fire and cooking. They are clearly close at hand, but there seems to be a Milky Way in between.

Can't enter Lingyun Village, where can she go in the future?

You know, the territory closest to here can be reached by walking for more than an hour.

If it's too late today, how can she walk over?

Thinking of her sadness, Huang Aixin's eyes went black and almost fainted to death.

**

On the way home, Pang Yu's footsteps were particularly brisk.

With 10 copper coins in hand, the couple’s overnight fee will be paid for tonight.

I had a big meal at noon, and I was not hungry for the time being, so I could give my wife the bread that I saved.

He always felt that his wife would be unable to recover until he was hungry and full.

"I'm back." Unlike the past, Pang Yu's voice was full of vitality, as if he had seen hope.

The wife was startled slightly, "Is it lucky to find food?"

"No, I joined a team." Pang Yudi said, telling his wife what happened that day in detail.

"Great." His wife's eyes were moist.

Every time her husband went out, she was worried, and sometimes she couldn't sleep well. Now that I have joined the reliable team, I can finally rest assured.

"This is the black noodle cake given by the team, eat it quickly." Pang Yu softened the noodle cake with warm water, and then helped his wife sit up and have a meal.

The wife thought that the dough was dark and the taste must not be very good. Unexpectedly, after the first bite, his eyes lit up, "It's delicious."

Black rice, wheat, and sweet potatoes are mixed together, and they taste sweet.

Pang Yu solemnly said, "When you get better, let's join the collection team together. At that time, the team will take care of the meals and it will be much easier to save money."

Yes. The wife thought to herself that she had to get better as soon as possible and could not hold back any longer.

**

Hurrying, collecting, and busy all morning, after finally having time to rest for a while, Takega gnawed miscellaneous grains and buns, and said with resentment, these people are simply using the players as animals!

What a great force?

What about combat proficient?

Can you not treat people as human beings and let them work from morning to night?

The more he thought about it, the more angry he became. He couldn't help but hide a few in his arms while digging for mushrooms.

Originally, all collected materials were handed in. This regulation is very unreasonable and is very unfavorable to motivate employees.

If 80% of the harvest is handed in and 20% is left for personal use, it will be about the same.

So when collecting bamboo shoots, he also kept and handed in materials according to the ratio of 28.

When doing this, Takega completely forgot that if the rewards were paid by sharing, the team would never provide two meals and give back copper coins.

But he doesn't care. It means that the welfare must be enjoyed, and the advantage must be taken up, and they are not willing to fall.

"You, you, you... If you want to collect with the group tomorrow, you can come over."

After returning to Lingyun Village, the only woman in the team without a mask said.

Wuheru was struck by lightning and couldn't help asking, "Why?"

"Aren't you tired after walking all the way with bamboo shoots and mushrooms?"

The other party spoke lightly and directly poke his deadly spot. It turned out that the hands and feet that were made secretly were all in the eyes of the other party, but they were not exposed on the spot.

The team will not hire themselves tomorrow.

He has to find another way out.

Without powerful skills, advanced equipment, or even rain gear, what can he do alone?

When I went out today, I saw with my own eyes that the edible plants nearby were collected, and nothing was left. Only by going far away can we find new resources.

But with him alone, how can he go and return safely?

If you lose your team, you can only starve to death by acting alone, or you can go out and be besieged to death by monsters!

What a fluke happened to me was a errand that he did not live up to.

Until this time, Wuga Rumeng woke up and finally realized what kind of stupid he had done.

**

After the start of the rainy season, Yunling is committed to spending money on consumption, purchasing materials, and helping the poor. Therefore, the copper coins are quickly spent when they are obtained, and they cannot be saved at all.

Later, he made hats and quilts for sale, and the business was booming, but copper coins quickly accumulated.

Seeing that there were more than 20,000 copper coins in the small vault, Yunling opened the territory panel and prepared to upgrade the building.

Warehouse (level 1), wood workshop (level 1), tailor shop (level 1), residential (level 1), protective cover (level 1), restaurant (level 1).

Choose two from six.

Yunling pondered for a moment, "For functional buildings like wood workshops, tailor shops, restaurants, level 1 can accommodate 2 npc employees, level 2 can accommodate 5, and level 3 can accommodate 10. If you upgrade your npc abilities, you may not be able to recruit suitable ones."

"Upgrading residential houses can build 1,000 wooden houses and stone houses. Although the stone houses are large in size and have a good environment, the price can be doubled. The wooden houses of 500 copper coins can't be bought by most players. There is no need to build better."

"In this way, only the warehouse (level 1) and the protective cover (level 1) are left."

After considering for a long time, Yunling finally chose to upgrade the "warehouse" and "protective cover."

[The warehouse is upgraded to level 2. 】

【With an area of ​​500 square meters, it can store various resources and extend the shelf life of food by 15 days. 】

[The protective cover is upgraded to level 2. 】

[The upper limit of health has become 20000/20000. 】

[Basic recovery speed: 2 points of life/minute. 】

The building is upgraded, the storage area is increased, the shelf life is extended, and the defense effect is better. Yunling's indescribable satisfaction deep in his heart, his brows are full of smiles.

**

late at night.

All around was silent, and the players had fallen asleep.

Archer A, B, C, and D loyally guarded Lingyun Village, not daring to slack off.

At this moment, the door of the wooden house suddenly opened, and one person walked towards them slowly.

Archer A, B, C, Ding looked at each other and exchanged glances.

Sagittarius: The guy who is robbing us every day is here again!

Shooter B: Robbing every day, can you blacklist him?

Shooter C: Monsters sneak attacks every night, but the number of dropped items picked up is scarce. Does Lord Lord think that we are lazy and not working properly?

Sagittarius Ding: Unexpectedly, there is a risk of unemployment...

Under the complicated gaze of the NPC, Lu Chuan stood still on the edge of the territory.

After waiting for more than half an hour, a group of fire elements strolled towards Lingyun Village.

They are made of flames and look terrifying.

During the journey, sporadic sparks fell, not only burning down the green plants along the way, but also leaving black burn marks on the ground.

Archer Armor had a solemn expression, "More than twenty enemy units are approaching the territory. Attention, prepare to fight!"

The guard held his breath and stood ready.

One step, one step, one step, the enemy gets closer and closer.

When the fire element stepped into the attack range, the archers couldn't help but draw their bows and shoot arrows.

However, Lu Chuan was faster than them.

He took out the special effect arrow from the quiver, and then released it without thinking. Frozen arrows, penetrating arrows, and sharp arrows take turns to battle. The number is staggering.

But in the blink of an eye, the fire element was completely wiped out.

At this time, the health value of the protective cover was 18944/20000, which was far from reaching the warning requirements for the residents of the whole territory (the first warning when the blood volume fell below 25%).

Lu Chuan was dissatisfied, "The fire element is immune to all fire skills. If the bursting arrow and the burning arrow can be used, the cleaning speed will be faster."

Archer A, B, C, D, "..."

Say, are you trying to grab our jobs?

Lu Chuan ignored the NPC's stare and walked aside to rest.

【Name: Dragon Quiver】

Quality: Legend

Durability: 84/100

Wearing effect: One arrow is automatically refilled every minute, up to 50 can be installed.

Special effects: After the arrow is generated, there is a 30% chance of attaching special effects, such as penetration, explosion, freezing, and burning.

At present, there are 15 bursting arrows and 10 burning arrows left in the orange quiver.

Every minute, the quiver will automatically replenish an arrow. 30% chance to generate special effects arrows, 70% chance to generate ordinary arrows.

It takes a lot of time to fill the orange quiver with special effect arrows. When you are unlucky, the chances are not counted at all, and the ordinary arrows are always generated.

Fortunately, he has enough patience to wait.

**

The 23rd day.

As soon as it was dark, Fu Yige got up to prepare for going out.

A travel bag, a dry food, a cup filled with water, a wooden shovel, and a dagger.

Then put on straw sandals, planning to go out.

When one saw it, he couldn't help being surprised, "Brother Fu, why don't you leave without rain gear?"

"You don't understand this, right?" Before Fu Yige answered, a person next to him rushed to answer, "Brother Fu is famous for asking for money, he always wears only a pair of straw sandals to go out."

"He often said that instead of buying rain gear, it is better to save the money and buy a formal resident status in the future, or buy a house to buy equipment."

"Young, what are you afraid of getting a little rain?" Fu Yige smiled, "When the rainy season is over, the rain gear will no longer be useful, there is no need to waste money."

The person who had previously questioned was in awe, "Brother Fu is so courageous!"

"It's just used to saving money." After speaking, Fu Yige walked to the campfire and prepared to eat breakfast.

The rain pattered on the ground.

Fu Yige looked calm and calmly waited for 8 o'clock to arrive.

It was not the first time that he went out in the rain. At first he was trembling and worried that there would be sequelae. Later, he found out that although he was exposed to the negative state when he was exposed to the rain, he returned to the territory and grilled the fire and had a warm meal. The negative state Will disappear.

When he came and went, he didn't take it seriously and ran around in straw sandals.

Courage is also good.

On a rainy day, others were trapped in the territory, unable to move, but he was somewhat rewarded.

The more times, Fu Yige became bolder and longer and longer in the rain.

Fu Yige thought that this day would go through as usual, but who knows--

[Because of excessive rain, you are sick, strength-3, agility-3, physical strength-3, intelligence-3, spirit-3. 】

[The basic recovery speed is changed to: 1 point of health/5 minutes, 1 point of mana/5 minutes. 】

【Three days of resting (no rain for three consecutive days, working time

Fu Yige, "..."

Seeing the system prompt, he had only one thought in his mind-he would have to pay it back after all.
