"Warlock... Yes, I am a warlock. So how about we play a game?"
Although Xu Ya didn't know what it was, he admitted it first, smiled gently, and spoke softly to the little girl.
"Okay, okay, what game are we going to play?"
The little girl seemed very lonely, but when she saw Xu Ya was willing to play games with her, she immediately clapped her hands and agreed.
On the next page, three agreement interfaces popped up: [Trade Agreement], [Scientific Research Agreement], and [Immigration Agreement].
"Come on, you just need to agree and press the button above. I'll send you something delicious~"
Luckily, the first person who came up was a little girl, who looked easier to fool.
Xu Ya was very cunning. He threw the three agreements over first. He planned to take advantage of the little girl's ignorance to deeply bind this world!
Although it was somewhat shameful to do so, he was in deep crisis and could not care less.
The mechanism of the dimensional star map does not require special individuals in the target world to sign the agreement, so Xu Ya can understand that as long as the individual is in the target world, he can sign the agreement.
In this case, instead of finding those cunning guys to sign an agreement, it would be more convenient and quicker to find some ignorant children to fix the bugs.
“Is this… true?”
The child was ignorant and didn't know what dangerous thing he had done.
Under Xu Ya's patient persuasion, he decisively nodded his agreement three times.
“Very good, very well done!”
Nice! The three agreements were indeed approved by the system. The next second, he took out the new interface.
[Achievement: Establish a relationship with the first dimensional world and unlock the 'Source Stone' technology tree. ]
Originium! Seeing this familiar word, Xu Ya roughly understood which world he had come to - Arknights.
He couldn't help but think of a green cat's favorite line - this land of suffering...
Xu Ya didn't know whether Terra was suffering or not, but he knew that he was facing suffering and needed help!
According to the strength of Terra Superman, if he could recruit a team of Terrans, then he could basically eliminate the danger. However, how to make the little girl believe him and then ask adults for help in recruiting mercenaries is another complicated and troublesome process.
But he is not helpless.
Xu Ya carefully looked at the area where the hornworms were active and found that the two monsters were active for a while and then burrowed back into the ground and disappeared.
He began to boldly look for some supplies. In addition to a small amount of wood and stone resources in the initial area, there are also bush resources. The bushes provide [vines] for making ropes and food [bush fruits], which are a kind of blue fruit that can be eaten directly and safely, and can also be used for cooking. It is one of the main sources of food in the early days.
He is not hungry at the moment, so he might as well use it to win people's hearts.
"Here, little girl this is for you."
By observing the style of the clothes and body of the little girl with bear ears, he could find that her living environment was not very good. She should be hungry and full at times, so using food to open the way should be the best way.
After picking a lot of bush fruits, they were teleported over through a trade agreement.
“Wow, these are delicious?”
The little girl was still squatting in front of her. Unexpectedly, a bunch of blue fruits suddenly fell in front of her. Without much suspicion, she picked up some and stuffed them into her mouth. She was obviously very hungry.
After taking a bite, she found that although the fruit was small, it tasted very sweet. She didn't know how long it had been since she had experienced such a sweet feeling, and she couldn't help but eat a few more bites.
Then he glanced at his brother who was smiling in the holographic interface, and then he said embarrassedly: "Are these really all for me?"
"Yes, take them all."
In her opinion, eating is the most important thing in the world. In this village where food is always scarce, how generous is the person who can give so much food at one time! In the little girl's simple worldview, Xu Ya was labeled as a good person, and his favorability also increased rapidly.
Then, while the little girl was happily eating, Xu Ya began to extract information from her bit by bit.
For example, where is he now, what year is it, and are there any settlements or cities around him?
It's a pity that a child who may not have even walked out of his hometown ten kilometers away has no idea about these "profound" questions.
"Thank you, brother. Am I full? Can I take the rest back?"
The little girl's face and hands were stained with blue from eating, making her already dirty clothes even dirtier. But she was happier because it was the first time she had a full meal.
Seeing that there were still a lot of bush fruits on the ground, she casually grabbed the corner of her clothes to make a pocket to put them in, and then asked very politely.
"Take them all away. I'm giving them to you. Take me to meet your parents. I have something to ask them."
"no problem!"
.......
The little girl ran back home from the ice and snow. It was a dilapidated, leaky wooden house. Although she didn't know how low the temperature was, it was cold just looking at it. Only these Terra Supermen could hold on.
The adults seemed to be out working, so the little girl went out again and walked to the relatively complete large wooden house. Many people in the village gathered here to enjoy the heat from the stove and talk about next year's life.
"Village head, the patrol team will come to collect taxes in two months. The harvests have been poor in the past two years, and our family doesn't have enough money and food. But the taxes haven't been reduced at all. What should we do if this continues?"
"Yeah, we can't send anyone to the mine anymore. Going there is a near-death experience."
"I can't do anything about it. Let Alexei go to the mine with the picket team."
"He is the only male left in Alexei's family! His father was also sent to the mine by you, the village chief. This is too inhumane. Please help him!"
It turned out that in the house, a group of villagers were discussing taxation with the village chief.
If there is no money and no food, then people have to go to the source stone mine to mine. Sass is worried about the lack of workers because the development of the source stone industry requires large-scale mining of source stone minerals.
However, the workers' living conditions are extremely low, and their lack of protection makes them very susceptible to Originium disease.
Paradoxically, Ursus' attitude towards the infected is the most cruel and inhumane in all of Terra, which leads to the fact that any normal person is unwilling to go mining.
However, heavy taxes and exploitation by patrol teams made it difficult for farmers to survive and they were completely trapped in a vicious circle.
Therefore, the heartless village chief decided to sacrifice the weakest villager in the village to get through the difficult times next year, but the villagers would never agree to this request. They could send Alexei next year, but if they couldn't pay the taxes next year, would they have to sacrifice another person? !
Therefore, the villagers hoped that the richest village chief would pay for the patrols and tax officials out of his own pocket. However, due to the extremely cold region, agricultural products were scarce and the landlords did not have much food, so the village chief was not willing to make this offer.
The two sides' respective positions led to a long argument here, but they could not find a way to reach a consensus and gradually fell silent.
"I can take care of your taxes, but before that you have to do something for me."
And in this suffocating silence, a strange voice interrupted.
Everyone turned to look at the source of the sound.
"Anka's youngest daughter, Meili?"
"No, it wasn't me. It was the Lord Warlock I met outside who was talking."
Mary saw that the adults were looking at her and quickly shook her head and explained.
"Master Warlock?"
At this time, everyone saw a holographic interface appear in front of Meili. Xu Ya's head portrait was projected clearly, and he appeared in front of the group of villagers with animal ears.
As expected, the first world they explored was the Ark of Tomorrow. From what they said just now, it was definitely the northern border of Ursus. I don't know how far this place is from the legendary evil land.
But this was not the time to think about these things, he spoke again, "Your problem is just a small matter to me."
"Hello, Master Warlock. I never thought that such a great man would come to my humble home. It really brings honor to my humble home."
Before anyone else could react, the village chief, who had been to school and read a few books, came over immediately after seeing the projection interface. He seemed to have mistaken it for some powerful unknown Originium skill. Then he looked at Xu Ya's fairly neat and 'luxurious' clothes and thought he was some great big shot, so he quickly said a few words of obsequiousness.
"Well, I have something to do today. If you can do it well, then taxes and other things can be solved. If you lack food, I can give it to you."
Seeing that this projection interface could really scare people, Xu Ya began to make requests without hesitation. After all, the threat of hornworms was imminent, and he was afraid that in just one more day he would see more hornworms emerging from the ground, which would be fatal!
However, in order to increase his credibility, Xu Ya threw more bush fruits over. This was his last food.
Then the Ursus villagers saw a miraculous scene. Blue fruits kept falling from the ground. Some people couldn't help but pick one up and tasted it, then shouted, "Delicious! It's sweet."
Hearing this, the hungry people's eyes turned green and they reached out to grab the food, fearing that the food would be snatched away if they were late.
"What are you fighting for? Be quiet! The warlock hasn't even spoken yet! Do you want to be executed?" The village chief was furious when he saw the useless villagers, and he even scolded them in Xu Ya's name. Then he spoke to Xu Ya's projection in a humble tone. "Please tell me your request, warlock. If I can do it, I will do my best to help!"
"Don't worry, I won't ask you to do the impossible. My request is very simple... I just need you to find a team of mercenaries who are reliable in strength and credit."
"Find mercenaries? Is it that simple?"
Although I don't know why a great warlock would ask little people like them to do such a trivial thing, this may be a whim of the big man. I hope there is no danger.
The village chief had heard that the nobles would kill someone to liven up their fun when they were bored, and he was afraid that he would be involved in some of the nobles' killing games. All he could do was to try his best to please this mysterious and powerful sorcerer, and get rid of him as soon as possible.
The bush fruit sent through the [Trade Agreement] was another incredible Originium skill in the eyes of the village chief. There was no doubt that this was enough to calm any resistance in his heart. If he could send things to them quietly, then he could also quietly make them move their heads.
Xu Ya did not expect that the Ursus people had such rich brain abilities. He just felt that the village chief was serious about his work, so he repeated clearly again. The dimensional star map has a built-in translation function, so there is no need to worry about language problems: "Yes, please find me a team of mercenaries quickly, at least four people!"
If he remembered the setting of Arknights correctly, there were many mercenaries in the northern border. At the beginning, the leader of the Reunion Movement, Tallulah, formed her own team here, including the Patriots' guerrillas, the Froststar's Yeti team, and a large number of Sarkaz mercenaries!
The Sarkaz mercenaries are well-known to everyone and are spread all over Terra. Although they seem to be treated as miscellaneous soldiers in the plot, their combat effectiveness is actually quite good, otherwise they would not be hired by various countries.
And according to the strength of Terra Superman, as long as he can find four professional warriors, he should be able to win against the two hornworms!
The only problem is the pay...
Xu Ya was calculating the gains and losses in his mind. To be honest, he didn't have much to trade now except for the most basic tools and wood and stone resources. It would be a problem how to convince the mercenaries to come to his world to eliminate insects.
But there must be a way out when the car reaches the mountain. First trick the people over. As long as the hornworms are eliminated, everything will be fine.
"That's no problem. I just happened to know about a group of mercenaries. Should I invite them to you?"
The village chief's brows relaxed. This condition was considered lenient enough. He thought about it for a while and suddenly remembered some important news. Then he smiled happily like a traitor who was leading the way for Taijun.
"Yes. Then I will wait for your good news. When I arrive, just ask the little girl to call me."
Xu Ya replied with aristocratic reserve, then closed the interface.
No one knew how tormented he was at this moment, and cold sweat kept pouring out of his back.
It seems that it would be better to open future plots after sufficient preparation. No one knows whether the emergence of new land will bring opportunities or dangers. If he remembers correctly, he remembers that the programmers of the development team stuffed a lot of bad things into the plots - in addition to the dangerous beasts and killer bee swarms with a relatively high probability of triggering, there are also hostile alien machines, killing aliens, abominable ghosts, demons and other enemies. In short, it is a hodgepodge.
Moreover, Xu Ya didn't know at that time that she would travel to her own game, and she also designed several world-class bosses to increase the fun of the game in the later stages. The background settings of these bosses are awesome, and their abilities include starting with a nuclear explosion and waving their hands to change time and space.
Fortunately, the world boss was still in the design stage and had not been inserted in time, otherwise he would have been sweating profusely.
Chapter 3 Mudrock Squad
In the gap between the city and the wilderness, there is a group of people who are needed but not accepted - the Sarkaz mercenaries
During the countless civil wars and destructions in Kazdel, many Sarkaz became tired of war and fled their shattered homelands to wander around Terra in order to escape the never-ending vortex of war or simply the destruction of their families.
They are like gypsies who have lost their roots. They are discriminated against, and the high infection rate of Originium disease unique to Sakaz has caused their reputation to get worse and worse.
This is the Sarkaz. Although they are despised, the strong fighting power of the Sarkaz mercenaries is indeed recognized by the countries of Terra. But it is also because of their strong fighting power that they are feared. The mercenaries are used like disposable tissues and thrown away. As a result, the Sarkaz can only migrate constantly to find work for their livelihood, and they don't hesitate to kill each other for this...
"Mud Rock, those people on the patrol are so despicable, they obviously just want to have fun!"
The members of the Mudstone Squad surrounded Mudstone, and their conversation was depressing and infuriating.
The masters of the nearby mobile city-state hired them to capture the infected people who escaped from the mine. They didn't even see the faces of the noble masters, and the pickets responsible for connecting with them didn't have much of a good face for the Sarkaz, and kept calling them "demon clan guy, demon clan guy". They also said something like "let the infected catch the infected, just make use of the waste."
If that were all, it would be fine, but the patrol team also withheld their pay and only gave them half of the money.
This dog-man's condescending attitude almost made the Sarkaz in the team unable to hold back and beat up these Ursus people.
In the end, it was Mudstone who stepped forward to stop the conflict between the two sides, and used his "burly" body to force the pickets to spit out part of their rewards.
However, after this happened, some people deliberately exaggerated the incident and reported it to their superiors. The noble lord, who obviously trusted his own people more than the Sarkaz, watched the "restless" Mudstone Team capture all the escaped miners, and then he terminated the contract and drove them away, without even paying the balance.
A series of actions that made people's blood pressure soar made the mercenaries angry. More importantly, the money they received was not enough to sustain them for long.
Even if I want revenge, I am short of money.
Not to mention that the noble lord mobilized a private army without hesitation to watch them and send them out of the territory, giving them no chance at all.
"Mud Rock, why don't we go to Leithania? I heard that it's pretty good for the Sarkaz and the Infected. We can find a new home there."
One of the Sarkaz in the team was completely desperate about Ursus and made a new suggestion.
