Chapter 522: All Directions Are Shaken, and the Wonder Begins!
In the small village, as the number of people increases, a vague social form begins to take shape. Google Search Reading
In a group of more than a thousand people, everyone has their own different greed, anger, ignorance, good, evil and beauty.
The villagers are trying to compete for the talent ranking, wanting to live in a better and bigger room, have more food, and live a better life.
The management is studying how to make better achievements and gain more trust from Su Mo, so as to exchange for more authority and climb higher and higher.
Even these scientific researchers are thinking about how to "revive" themselves and regain their human form.
With more and more people, people are afraid of the impending disaster and the fear of being thrown off the chariot in the process of advancing in the depression.
For this opportunity to use the mark, even though Lü Kuan and others knew that the people who should be used most were not them, but the villagers who volunteered to die and sneak into the enemy camp.
But anyway, they chose to fight for it.
This is the first time they have put forward their demands in the depression!
"Uncle Su, that's too polite. We should consider our own people first. As the saying goes, we must first stabilize the country before we can resist foreign aggression!"
"You don't have to worry about the number of marks. As long as we succeed in the test and crack the usage method perfectly, I will be able to get not only ten but also a hundred!"
With a warm smile, Su Mo's voice was light, but it made all the brains, including Su Deben, tremble violently when it fell into the brain box.
Obviously, compared with the calmness on the surface, the reaction of everyone was obviously much more intense.
"Su Mo and the others, no, we thank you!"
"It's okay, Uncle Su, don't worry, our collective development will not be possible without your efforts in the future, just do more when the time comes, hahaha!"
After saying the first sentence, Su Deben lost control because of the shock of his mind, and he exited the machine body on his own, and his consciousness returned to the brain box.
But the strange thing is that the body that would usually be seized instantly is now "online" by no one, and only the empty shell is left in place for a while.
He walked forward, patted the robot's shoulder, looked at the two empty eyes on its face, and the slightly twitching expression that had lost control.
Su Mo was immediately filled with emotion.
If the previous few people were just passers-by, they might choose to leave once the depression reached a critical moment.
Now, these people are completely focused!
The moment they got their promise, they voluntarily put their "hearts" over and finally became a part of the depression.
This is what Su Mo wanted to see a long time ago, but fortunately, it is not too late now!
The real continuous terrorist disaster has not yet arrived, and there is still enough time for the depression to get one or two rounds of development!
"Fortunately, if there are no accidents, Daddy can come after this round of disaster is over"
"When the time comes, leave all the mess in the depression to Daddy, and I will focus on external development and resource upgrading!"
In terms of professionalism, after such a long period of study, Su Mo is already many times more proficient than when he first came to the wasteland.
But for him, who has an adventurous personality, this thing is like forcing a child who doesn't like to study to learn by force. There is little gain and a lot of pain.
There is a sequence in learning, and there is a specialization in skills.
Professional matters should be left to professionals.
After thinking through these twists and turns and putting aside the worries in his mind, Su Mo didn't bother to wash up after reaching the third floor, and fell directly on the bed and fell asleep.
The tense spirit of the previous night was rushed, coupled with the emotional ups and downs of upgrading resources.
Whether in terms of physical or mental strength, it has far exceeded the limits of normal human power.
Even though Su Mo's physical fitness is now very explosive, he still feels like "running out of oil" after this consumption.
However, Su Mo in his sleep didn't know.
Just when the resources of the depression were upgraded just now, several neighbors who were ready to move were unconsciously thrown into chaos by the depression again.
Four hundred kilometers south along the border of the depression.
This is the territory of the ancient tree people.
Unlike the barren plains of the Demon Soul Clan, the territory of the Tree People is full of vitality, with towering trees of ten or twenty meters everywhere.
If someone who doesn't know the way comes in, it is absolutely difficult to get out of this territory without the help of pointing tools.
The deeper you go, the higher the density of trees. Regardless of the species, it feels like the Amazon rainforest on Earth.
Because the Tree People don't eat meat, they only absorb nutrients from the land and eat rice leaves. The number of animals in this jungle is much higher than other territories.
Looking down from the air, there are no less than a thousand kinds of animals running happily in a mere fifty square kilometers, releasing their energy wantonly.
It's a pity that these little animals today are not as happy as before.
When the vibration of the depression came over for the first time, as the Tree People began to riot, they were so scared that they trembled like sieves, and everyone fell to the ground and trembled.
The vibration transmitted by the upgrade of Iron Stone Mountain is not an earthquake in the conventional sense.
It can propagate over a very long distance, and even at a distance of 400 to 500 kilometers, it can still maintain a vibration amplitude of about a magnitude 5 earthquake.
In the soil, without isolation, this vibration is more like an electric shock, almost instantly making the tree man rooted in the soil fall to the ground.
Woo
Woo
Having lost most of their combat power, the central area of the ancient tree people immediately sounded the alarm.
Countless tree people wearing heavy armor jumped out of the area like beasts, and looked for possible invading enemies with vigilant eyes.
Even the tree lord Zhu Ling put on his own equipment and stood on the city wall ready for battle.
"The direction of the vibration came from the territory of the human king Su Mo, but we didn't find any enemies in this direction."
"Su Mo again?"
Listening to the breathless report of his subordinates, Zhu Ling frowned, and several pieces of wood on his body instantly folded together.
Three days ago, when Zhu Chuan returned to the territory and vividly described what he had seen and heard, the tree people had subtly formed three factions during this period.
The first one was naturally the pro-war faction.
However, unlike before, the pro-war faction was not clamoring to launch an attack this time, but was seeking how to gain the initiative from the next trade.
They coveted the fairy peach that Zhu Chuan said could magically improve their strength, but at the same time, they didn't want to pay too much to exchange it.
Therefore, they could only seek military means.
The second is the reconciliation faction represented by Zhu Chuan.
Their goal is to establish long-term and stable trade with the depression, and it is best to open up the supply route of goods and generate transactions on time and in quantity.
Then, through trade, deepen the relationship between the two sides and fight against the surrounding enemies together.
As for the last faction, it is the neutral faction led by team leader Zhu Ling.
It is somewhat similar to the situation of the Demon Soul Clan lord. Although Zhu Ling relied on his strength to suppress everyone, he was not completely sidelined.
But constrained by the previous clan structure, he still couldn't do it like Su Mo.
His decision needs to be agreed by more than 60% of the people before it can be implemented, otherwise it will be refused by others on the pretext of asking for the approval of the gods.
At this time, the number of the main war faction is about 30%, the reconciliation faction is about 35%, and the number of votes in his hand is also about 35%.
As long as he chooses either side, the order will be executed quickly.
Before this, Zhu Ling wanted to wait until someone from the depression came and make a decision based on their performance.
But at this moment, feeling the vibration that had just subsided and began to occur again.
Very rarely, he hesitated!
On the other side, the reaction of the Demon Soul Clan was almost the same as that of the Tree People.
As the law enforcement team with the most say in the city, although they did not send spies to monitor Su Mo's departure, they received the signal sent back through the mark.
As long as they were inside the territory of the Demon Soul Clan, they could get a rough location.
After ensuring that the mark reaction sent back by Hal, who was transformed by Su Mo, was indeed entering the territory of the depression, the law enforcement team was relieved.
However, after the vibration in the depression came.
Looking at the walls that were falling dust crazily and the tables that were shaking continuously, their hearts that had just been relieved were raised again.
Then, teams of neatly equipped law enforcement teams quickly poured out of the official venues with high walls.
For a moment, the originally noisy city gradually quieted down because of the orderly footsteps of thousands of law enforcement teams.
However, just like the tree man before.
When all the guards closed the city gates, climbed the city wall, and did not find the enemy, their minds also became complicated.
"This human Su Mo's territory actually has such a secret weapon?"
"It seems that it was right not to touch Hal at the beginning. As long as we rely on Hal as a bridge, once we can open up the trade route of the human territory, we may also be able to obtain"
"Weapons to fight against the gods!"
"By then, even if the lord comes back, I can"
Looking at the direction of the depression, the Demon Soul Clan's commander-in-chief hidden under the armor had a dim look in his eyes.
Then, fearing that others would discover the flames of desire that were almost coming out of his eyes, the commander-in-chief threw his cloak and walked down the city wall first.
Unfortunately, what he didn't know was that the person he had been thinking about day and night was really standing next to him!
Moreover, this fat figure also sighed in his heart like him!
"To create chaos now, we must get more people involved. The conflict between the exchange and the guards alone is not enough."
"Hal, this is my first step to stir up this muddy water!"
"It seems that if the situation is right, I have to go see this Su Mo and seek his help!"
In the Bright Empire, countless modified people walked out of the city
In the dwarf territory, more than a thousand ambushers who had just left returned again, with a vigilant look
In Su Mo's long and long sleep, the neighbors near the depression were all anxious.
But under the extremely long strategic depth protection of the depression and the mysterious coat.
Until Su Mo woke up at 6:30 in the evening, no race had the courage to explore the depression.
Sitting up and drinking half a cup of psionic water, Su Mo habitually opened the game panel and system panel.
"Wow, this game is really hard to sit still. I upgraded a lot of resources but there was no response."
"But it's good that there is no response. I'm afraid you will do something to me again!"
Most of the functions in the game panel are still in an indefinite stagnation stage.
After flipping through it for a while, after ensuring that the resource upgrade did not affect the internal operation of the game, Su Mo nodded with satisfaction and closed the panel.
Then, taking a sip of the remaining psionic water, Su Mo's sight returned to the system panel.
"In the next eleven days, we need to build the boiler room as soon as possible and lay the basic heating pipes. The task is not difficult."
"But for the outside world, I still have to go to the tree people's territory to take a look, and then go back to the Demon Soul Clan to make arrangements, and try to bring back as many marks as possible."
"As for the important tasks of the internal construction of the depression"
Looking through the several upgrade methods in the system interface, after shaking his head and looking around, Su Mo shifted his attention to the civilization upgrade.
Five requirements are required for the civilization upgrade in the primitive era.
Three stone weapon forging techniques
Skilled stone cave opening techniques
Completely get rid of raw food
Population 50
Build a stone statue with a height of no less than 20 meters, requiring the precision error to be no more than 50 centimeters (wonder requirement)
The first four depressions had been perfectly completed before the ocean came.
It was only because of this last wonder that it has been dragged down until now and it is difficult to advance.
Su Mo didn't think much of the stone tool making proficiency rewarded by the primitive civilization upgrade.
But unfortunately, the system did not set a skip option. If you want to advance to the subsequent civilization, you still have to upgrade step by step.
"A 20-meter stone statue is a problem. In the absence of large-scale engineering equipment, it is risky to build it by manpower alone."
"As for the 50-centimeter error, it is not difficult. There are professional carving talents in the depression, so it should be easy to do it."
"Why not build this wonder in these days?"
Thinking about the feasibility of the wonder building, after eliminating one by one, it was found that with the current strength of the depression, there is indeed time and ability to build.
Suddenly, Su Mo became excited!
There is a saying that wonders are built in prosperous times and fail in the end of the world.
In the past history, only when the country is strong and has surplus food can we see shocking wonders rising from the ground.
If it is in the midst of war, let alone building, it is even more difficult to preserve.
But the wonders that the system requires to be built are not like this.
Follow the prompts on the civilization upgrade.
After the wonders are built, they will give attribute bonuses to the people under their command to a certain extent, including but not limited to physical fitness, comprehension ability, learning ability, stress resistance, etc.
Just like the magical power in the Free City of the Demon Soul Clan that makes Su Mo jealous.
On the surface, the depression is wasting money and manpower to build fancy things, but inside, it is a bonus on another level.
A little bit adds up to a lot. Once this implicit bonus accumulates to a certain extent, it will have an immeasurable subsequent impact!
"Build, must build!"
"Before the heavy snowfall, we must build the statue no matter what!"
After getting dressed and washing up in the hall, Su Mo walked out of the shelter with wet hair and went straight to the inside of the village.
"Hey, Director, you are awake. It will be ready in the evening!"
Seeing Su Mo coming over, the chef raised the spoon in his hand and smiled.
Every time Su Mo came back from going out, the village would tacitly prepare a meat meal to express gratitude for the favor that fate had shown to Su Mo.
Today was no exception.
In the several large pots that were already burning, the beef and potatoes that had been purchased earlier had already been stewed into a mushy paste.
Around the pot, a layer of dough had been pasted, wantonly absorbing the boiling soup inside.
Moreover, along with the occasional hot air rushing out, bursts of peppery and green onion fragrance also continued to emanate from inside and drift around.
There were only the last twenty or thirty minutes left before the sun set, and the villagers who were working outside gradually carried their farm tools and returned in groups of three or five.
In the washing area on the left side of the village, hundreds of people were already queuing to wash their faces and hands.
For a moment, the depression that was originally deserted during the day was now very lively, and there was no trace of the atmosphere of the end of the world.
Sitting quietly at the table, looking at the peaceful scene in front of him, Su Mo, who was a little anxious at first, stayed at the table for a while.
In the unfocused sight, through the light of the torches, Su Mo's sight became longer and longer, as if he had passed through time and space and came to the future.
There, the wall of the depression was no longer a thin iron rod more than one meter high, but a thick alloy wall of hundreds of meters.
The lighting was not torches, but 360-degree ceiling lights without dead ends.
The people in the city, living here, can laugh heartily and be grateful for the wonderful life every day.
Even the children can get corresponding training and learning, so that civilization can be continuously relayed!
"It's great, I really dare not think about it, if there are 5,000 people, 10,000 people, or even a city in the depression in the future..."
"What a lively scene it would be!"
With a long sigh, he looked at Oreo carrying Su Chan who had appeared in his sight, and Moore chasing after him.
Su Mo gradually put away his wandering thoughts and put on a smile again.
However, in Su Mo's heart.
A seed called ambition.
was "sown" silently!
