Chapter 266 The Mercenaries Who Left and Those Who Stayed

Feng Yu was in Nicole's room when he said this. The little girl Weizhi lived in Nicole's guest room and was knitting a sweater for old man Cromwell stitch by stitch.

After hearing what Feng Yu said, the little girl Weizhi even embarrassed him, but it was of no use to Feng Yu who was determined to be shameless to the end.

"Will you knit this too thin?"

Weizhi rolled her eyes at Feng Yu and said, "This is the cuff."

Feng Yu laughed and thought that this was probably how the saying "The Secret World in the Sleeve" came about. However, he estimated that old man Cromwell would cry with happiness when he saw the sweater that Weizhi knitted for him, so he wouldn't care about the size.

"It looks like the wool loom will be idle for a while." Feng Yu said helplessly.

He wanted to promote rock wool yarn which was considered unclean, but he over-promoted it. The yarn was sold out before it could be woven into cloth.

Nicole covered her mouth and giggled.

Time flies. With the completion of the industrial company's headquarters and scientific research institute, the construction of the Pupu City residential area and central commercial and entertainment area officially started.

At the same time, the second phase of the railway project started near the magnetite mine and was built all the way to the ferry market near the Longyue Forest, where a terminal station was built, completing the entire line.

The bunker defense plan based on the railway line also began to be built by transporting materials by rail, creating a defense belt in the wilderness that relies on rail transportation of weapons and ammunition supplies and can protect farms and farmland.

It is worth mentioning that after the railway line was completed, some of the "diligent" Moran mercenaries finally earned enough self-rescue points set for them by Xiangpu City.

Feng Yu did not throw them all over to Moran, who had already established a transportation line with Xiangpu City by ship, but as promised, he provided them with a goblin airship ticket to a designated city, allowing them to go home in one stop.

On the day they boarded the goblin airship, the remaining mercenaries were organized to see them off. Feng Yu wanted to tell the mercenaries in this way that Pupu City would keep its promise.

The scene was not very touching. The remaining guys did earn a lot of points, but they spent them on eating and drinking, so they didn't save up enough money for the tickets. They don't deserve sympathy.

The mercenaries who boarded the ship lay on the side of the goblin airship to look at the city where they had lived for three or four years. There was an inexplicable look in their eyes, some nostalgia and some reluctance to leave.

Although they were prisoners of war here, after the initial days, although they were still guarded by soldiers while working, Cattail City made them feel something that Moran did not have, that is, fairness and happiness.

"This is a city full of love and hope. I wonder if I will have the chance to come here again." A mercenary murmured.

"The dwarves I work with are paid hundreds of dollars a month, and they can go to the tavern to drink after work. I heard they are moving into a very tall house."

"Yes, it's great to live here. The work is easy every day, and the salary is so generous. I don't have to worry about anything."

"Indeed, they don't have to worry about anything. I heard that when they get old, they can receive the minimum allowance for enough food, and they won't have to worry about starving until they die."

"Do you know why Baines didn't use his points to exchange for a boat ticket?"

"Didn't he say it wasn't enough?"

"That's not enough. When did he not work overtime? When did you see him go shopping in the store? Although he was not the first one to work overtime, he must have the most points.

He won't come back. This guy was born in a temporary camp near the Elf Forest. His family died in the Elf Forest a long time ago. He may want to stay in Cattail City."

"why?"

"Because it's comfortable there, that's what he said. He said he was tired of being a mercenary and had planned to stop after that incident, but he was lucky enough to survive and become a prisoner.

Even with the few points we have, we can earn more and eat better than working for the noble masters in Moran."

"Do you think this guy would like to become a resident of Cattail City and use a large amount of points..."

"..."

"Can Cattail City accept humans?"

"It's posted on the bulletin board. Cattail City has established a trade relationship with Moran."

"Maybe it's possible. That guy's skill is pretty good. He knows how to use stone powder and steel bars."

"Even if this guy stayed in Cattail City, he would never be able to find a wife."

"Maybe he'll marry a beautiful elf, just like Lord Darren."

"say!"

At this time, the Alert No. 3 airship responsible for patrolling and monitoring the Great Wilderness was cruising just east of the Great Cattail City.

After resupplying in Cattail City, the route of Alert No. 3 is to fly eastward to the coastline southeast of the Flint Mine Area, which is also the easternmost point of the alluvial plain.

There is no longer any alluvial plain or wetland composed of silt deposited by the Lengshui River, but instead a shallow sea with rugged rocks.

This is the gathering place of merfolk, because there are dense reefs, warm sea water, and many marine creatures living here, which has also attracted a large community of merfolk to live here.

Alert No. 3 passed by the water inlet bunker of the salt field and flew east for a while before arriving here, which was also one of the areas they were monitoring.

In order to deal with the threat of the fishmen, not only will the alerts three to five patrolling the Great Wilderness arrive here, but even the alerts one and two patrolling the river mouth area will come here.

This is a key control area. The main purpose is not to control the possible space-time channels, but the fishmen along the coast. These guys don't care about their lives, but they are very disgusting.

At this time, on the Vigilance No. 3 cruising in the sky, the drivers and lookouts consisting of halflings, dwarves and elves were chatting while observing the patrol area which had not changed at all.

The guard airship was not used for combat. The demon hunting rifles were placed aside and the telescopes were not used. They were hung around their necks without even opening the lids.

There was nothing new in the patrols day after day. At first, they were very interested in using observation equipment to see the scenery below the airship, but later they lost interest.

"Is there something moving on that sand dune over there?" said an elf.

After seeing the dazzling deserts and the vast, dusty wastelands in the East for too long, one's vision is prone to inexplicable hallucinations, and one always seems to see unknown things passing by in the peripheral vision.

"If you want to confirm, use a telescope to look at it. If you don't want to, don't stare at it. If you look again after a while, it will be gone." said another elf.

"No, there really is something." The elf said, opened the cover of the telescope on his chest and looked over there.

"You are always startled..."

"It looks like a goblin, at the edge of the desert, walking towards this side. Look!... That's not right. How could a goblin appear here? Isn't their route near the north-central part of the desert?"
