Han Xiao smiled but said nothing, and said with deep meaning: "Time will give you the answer."

Lu Cheng nodded, suppressing his doubts about the refugees for the time being, and prepared to let his men inquire more.

Then he took the initiative to invite Han Xiao to visit his territory, the Black Pine Settlement. Black Ghost said that there would be no reward, but Lu Cheng did not dare to take it seriously and had to show his good intentions.

Han Xiao agreed because he just wanted to have more contact with Lu Cheng.

I checked on the dark web before and found that Lu Cheng is a very powerful rogue warlord here in Nanzhou. The Black Pine settlement is very large. Green Valley Town is dwarfed by comparison. The Black Pine is located in a small city in the old era.

The ruins have been transformed into settlements, where tens of thousands of residents live, there are rich facilities, and there are even biological research institutes and weapons research institutes, you name it, how high-end it is.

There is a difference between the two concepts of rogue warlords and rogue settlements. A settlement is a group of rogues who spontaneously form a group to resist the dangers of the wild. They generally have democratically elected and reliable leaders. The structure is loose and there is basically no class distinction.

Warlords are more like lords. They spend resources to build a settlement, which can absorb scattered groups of wanderers. They charge a certain fee and then provide shelter. The fee can be taxes or labor. They purposefully develop armed forces to guard the settlement and attack other warlords.

, most of the armed personnel are mercenaries, but there are also rogues who volunteer to join the army.

Warlords and settlements are scattered across various continents, dotted in large numbers and large and small in scale. One of the main goals of Bennett's refuge is to integrate all wanderers and build new cities, independent of the Six Nations.

Providing shelter to all refugees creates natural conflicts with warlords. As the main line, this is a very large project.

Bennett's plan is like a great shelter that brings joy to all the poor people in the world. The shelter can avoid not only war, but also the dangers of the wild.

Lu Cheng invited Han Xiao to get in the car and go to Heisong.

Players in Green Valley Town can still get quests from the town. Those players who chose the defensive camp were surprised to find that their favorability of Green Valley Town had not been reduced. They all breathed a sigh of relief and watched the black ghost leave.

…

When we came, there were two people, but now there is an extra meat bag to beat the dog, and they are all crowded on the personnel carrier.

The scenery outside the window flew by. Han Xiao made a phone call and asked the driver of the darknet helicopter to go directly to the Black Pine Settlement to wait for him and tell Lu Cheng about the incident. Lu Cheng said that he would let people go and allow a stop.

Ping.

Han Xiao and Lu Cheng chatted for a while, and suddenly asked: "With your armed strength, you can attack as soon as you arrive in the town. The refugees can't stop you, why do you give Basas time to prepare?"

Lu Cheng shook his head. At that time, he didn't know that the player would be resurrected, and said: "Only people without faith think that killing can solve all problems."

"The lives of your men are also lives." Han Xiao smiled.

"The strong should protect the weak." Lu Cheng paused and said, "I will not massacre unarmed refugees. The Laupert tragedy is a lesson for all warlords."

"The Laupert Massacre? What was that?" the question came from Rou Bao Da Dog, who was still recording the material.

Lu Cheng thought that Kuangdao and Roubao were Han Xiao's followers. For Han Xiao's sake, he explained: "Laopert was once a large wanderer settlement in the Western Continent. It was invaded by a warlord.

The warlord was very popular among the people, so the residents spontaneously helped to resist. Unfortunately, the enemy was too strong, and the settlement was still breached. The attacking warlord was angry that the residents fought back, so he carried out a massacre against the unarmed residents and robbed all supplies.

Set fire to the settlement and kill tens of thousands of wanderers..."

Roubao Beating the Dog didn't take it seriously. In real history, this kind of killing of prisoners and massacres of cities has happened countless times. He asked: "Then what?"

"Then, the warlord who massacred and the hundreds of mercenaries who carried out the massacre were all killed by a superpower in one night twenty days later. After that, no warlord dared to kill innocent people indiscriminately."

Roubao Dagou was stunned, "Why?"

Han Xiao took over the conversation and said calmly: "Because there is a kind of person who calls himself a superhero."

If it were an ordinary world, people would not be able to resist atrocities. Even if they were angry at the powerful perpetrators, there would be nothing they could do. However, there is extraordinary power in Aquamarine. In troubled times, there are no laws. With power, you can become a law enforcer. Some unhappy super powers

These "superheroes" have the power to kill those who come to them. The style of these "superheroes" has set an artificial bottom line for the forces in the wilderness and formed a code based on common sense.

What is common sense? It means that anything that most people think is excessive from a moral perspective is excessive.

Unless the massacre and massacre are done without leakage, sooner or later a superpower who claims to be a righteous partner will come to your door. This can also be regarded as a kind of moral kidnapping, because I am strong enough, so you must abide by my "morals", the essence is still

The law of the jungle, in which the weak prey on the strong, gives the wilderness a rough set of rules, which indirectly protects the life safety of wanderers.

Roubao Dagou hurriedly recorded the material. He likes this kind of world anecdotes, which can enrich the video content.

Han Xiao touched his chin and when he mentioned the Laupert tragedy, he thought of a wild boss.

"At Laupert's ruins, the charred corpses were left unburied, attracting wild beasts to take over. A new type of virus breeds in the corpses and spreads out. The land and water sources in a large area are polluted, and the wild beasts that enter this area

Mutations occur, and new beast king-level wild bosses will appear every once in a while, which can trigger killing missions. I remember that the reward is the boss’s mutated heart, which can be given to a certain biological research group to produce potions that increase attributes. It seems that

There is a chance to awaken rare specialties."

Wild bosses will appear every once in a while, and players can brush them repeatedly. Repeated behaviors are an integral part of the game, such as tasks, monster spawning, dungeons, etc.

Speaking of which, by the way, I want to mention the issue of dungeons. There are several types of dungeons. The first is special scenes where monsters are constantly spawned, such as certain magic trial secret realms and simulated battle rooms on the technology side. Apart from these special spaces, in

In the reality of "Star Sea", there are also important areas where forces station troops, large battlefields, etc. that can be used as dungeons. Such dungeons are full of randomness and may be closed at any time.

The second is the dungeon crystal, which is a special item dropped through special tasks. Only players can use it to enter a parallel space that goes back for a period of time and participate in an event that has happened. The scenes that the dungeon crystal can enter are different.

Related to the mission content of dropping crystals.

The tasks that reward dungeon crystals can be repeated every once in a while. It is a dungeon that players can stably grind. It also has clearance time records and rankings of various dungeons.

When using a dungeon crystal, it appears to others that it suddenly disappears. The user enters a parallel space and cannot affect the outside world, but can gain something in the dungeon. This form of expression is consistent with the technological space jump device and the magical teleportation magic.

It’s similar, and even has the performance of time retrieval. Han Xiao doesn’t know if he can use the dungeon crystal. It feels very risky. He doesn’t know what the principle of the dungeon crystal is. If it is broken into molecules and reorganized into the body, the player can be resurrected. Whatever

After struggling, he would become cold.

Some special props can only be used by players, such as the superpower gene awakening liquid sold in the mall, which appears out of thin air after being purchased, and the genetic harmonizer that Han Xiao received as a reward for the Rose Armed mission before, which is also received through the panel. The same is true for dungeon crystals.

Props.

"It's better not to take the risk and try dungeon crystals." Han Xiao was helpless. To be honest, it was a waste of time for him to farm dungeon crystals. It would be more reliable to do main quests and hidden quests.

The convoy drove for several hours, and the outline of a black pine settlement appeared in the distance. It was huge in scale, equivalent to a smaller version of the city, and had a wilderness feel. Bricks, animal skins, hideous-shaped scrap metal, and electrified barbed wire on the walls were still there.

There are signs of rust. A dirt road surrounded by barbed wire is the only way to the gate. There are many black marks on the metal gate from gunfire.

"Welcome to Black Pine."
