Chapter 564 Chapter562 Zaun People Never Speak Zaun Dialect

A week has passed since the bombardment of the Strait that shocked Zaun, and the Adrian family, which was at its peak, was destroyed like a bug.

During this period, the Zaun Council, which was watched and looked forward to by the people of Zaun, did not take any inspiring punishment at all. Instead, the law enforcers deliberately silenced the public and minimized major issues. Many even took the initiative to please the ancestors of the Emerald Territory. Merchant An chose to secretly open the door for the Philos family supported by the Emerald Territory, allowing the Philos family, which integrated the resources of the Adrian family, to successfully replace the Adrian family and gain the precious qualification to participate in the bidding.

Silently, the arrogance of the Zaan people was cut by three points by the powerful Emerald Territory. Za'an was humiliated and dissatisfied, but no one dared to actually pick up a gun to resist. Even the law enforcement team was secretly investigating those involving the Emerald Territory. There is a bit more tolerance for minor crimes. If nothing else, just the Meteorite anchored on the coast of the strait is enough to shut up the mouths of the toughest Zaun family.

No one doubted how powerful the Meteor's bombardment was, and no one wanted the Meteor to try it in Zaun's city. After all, the Emerald Territory had saved enough face, and Zaan, who had no other choice, could only choose to surrender. .

Things have developed to the present point. Even a three-year-old child knows that the barbarians from the Northern Continent [Emerald Territory] are qualified to run rampant in Zaun. The Emerald Territory tourists have unintentionally achieved the achievement of Night Silence, but for adults, For most people, the overly aggressive and brutal behavior of the Emerald Territory is understandable. After all, in this dispute, apart from the shelling of demonstrations that caused minor property damage, only the Adrian family who betrayed the Emerald Territory was harmed. This is also The main reason why Zu An was willing to give up and admit defeat.

No one knows what agreement the Zaun Council and the Emerald Territory have reached secretly. Most of the Zaun residents who have not been greatly affected only know that the technical seminar will be held as scheduled at Fried College. After the strait is expanded, Zaun will gather more wealth and create more income for Zaun's residents.

At the same time, Lester, who was secretly paying attention to the progress of the incident, finally withdrew his attention and began to focus on his own affairs.

In the southern part of Zaun, in the low-lying heavy metal industrial park, there are hundreds of hard-working workers at No. 26 Inorganic Chemical Factory, the largest inorganic chemical plant, standing guard at their jobs. They have no idea that just now, a person worth enough to buy The entire men of Zaun followed an unreliable foreman into the underground world.

The property here belongs to the Zaun Council, and it is also the place with the highest income in Zaun. One day's salary is equivalent to three days of working as a dock unloader, but not everyone can come here.

The building with red bricks and black tiles is a fully loaded steam power plant. The black chimneys that tower into the sky are driven by the steam piston to extract various waste gases from the reactor through the tuyere. These waste gases are included in the combustion of the boiler and Uncompletely filtered sulfur, chlorine and other elements that cannot be filtered, and heavy metal elements will be cleaned out of the reactor by workers wearing protective clothing, dumped into abandoned mines along garbage pipes, and integrated into the ocean along underground ocean currents. among.

Everyone who works hard has enough money to live a good life. In this case, naturally no one cares whether the waste discharged will kill life in the ocean.

Compared with the useless environment and unmanageable industrial waste, workers and factory owners care more about how many rough-processed industrial products can be produced in steam boilers. Any theory is illusory. Only the products in hand can determine the amount of money in one's pocket. More drums.

The building of the chemical plant is built on an ancient mine. It is said that this mine once provided royal sulfur soap for the royal family of the Shurima Empire. The mine contains rich iron sulfur, ferric chloride, and coal veins. Although the mineral deposits are sufficient, the salary is high. , but there was no smile on the faces of the miners. Instead, they were as cautious as if they were facing a powerful enemy. They did not have the calmness and calmness of the mine manager and the head of the mine, because they really wanted to go into the mine.

No matter how much money you have, you need lives to spend it. Every time you go into the mine, it is a gamble that costs your life. In the darkness where you can't see your fingers, death always follows you. Explosive gases, deadly poisonous gases, collapsed tunnels, leaks. The underground water, strange animals and plants, and the mythical mine legends are all daunting factors of fear. There are four stones sandwiched between a piece of meat. When danger comes, no one can have full confidence in escaping from a deep mine with only one winding exit. , only those who survive can earn three times the salary of a dock unloader.

In such a harsh working environment, bright miner's lamps, simple gas masks and wear-resistant miners' equipment cannot bring any sense of security to people. All the miners can rely on is their own experience, the cute rat friends chattering in the cage and a group of friends. A little bit of just the right amount of luck.

In fact, even Lester, who had lived for eight hundred years, felt a little guilty when he stood under the mine. If he heard correctly, during the descent, the steam elevator made the sound of parts falling off, and The miner leader next to him simply looked indifferent. It seemed that this situation happened all the time...

If another experienced old miner and his big gray mouse hadn't looked frightened, he might have believed it. However, the Zaun people, who consider themselves civilized people, did not reveal Zaun's excellent qualities at the critical moment. , it’s really like the same thing when you come into contact with him, he’s so civilized that he doesn’t even say bad words.

Perhaps Zu An was also misunderstood by the outside world later?

What makes Leicester feel relieved is that the elevator with missing parts did not stop after making a "strange noise". In addition to the screams of the big squirrel in the old miner's cage, there were still strange sounds in the elevator shaft more than 100 meters away. Reaching the deepest part of the mine without any danger, the light beams on the miners' helmets and hands dispersed the darkness, making the less bright explosion-proof electric lights in the mine useless.

Lester turned back and glanced at the deep elevator shaft behind him. Compared with the Emerald Collar Mine he designed himself, Zaun's mine was still too simple and rough. Now he doubted whether the steel cable could completely re-establish him. Bring it back to the surface.

But no matter what, he won't fall to death.

Wiping the cold sweat on his forehead, Lester took a deep breath to calm himself down.

"Ahem... Foreman Lowry, I think you heard the sound of the elevator lock coming off just now. You should be glad that the money you were greedy for didn't make us fall into pieces."

Before Laurie could speak, the big squirrel in the old miner's cage, with its eyes rolling around, stood up and screamed, gesticulating with its paws, and its fierce words seemed to be accusing something, and it looked a little excited.

"Shhhhhh~ old friend, don't be afraid, the worst I can do is die with you, cough cough cough... Anyway, I don't have much left to live due to pneumoconiosis and gastric cancer, so just cough cough... relax, otherwise you think why I am today Give me your favorite Demacia cheese?"

"Squeak! Squeak!"

Lester was sure that the big gray mouse, who was already very 'enthusiastic', became even more excited after hearing the old miner's words. The scene in front of him couldn't help but remind him of the red-skinned demon rat under the Silver Mountains of the Emerald Territory. He was very suspicious of what he saw before him. Did the big gray mouse become a spirit like the red-skinned devil mouse?

The coughing old miner's name was Kueller. As a retired old miner, Kueller swore that if the damn money-grubber hadn't blinded his old, blurred and upright eyes with damn gold coins, he wouldn't have died. He took his old friend who was also retired and returned to this ghost place that never saw the light of day.

Hearing what the old miner Queller said, the pot-bellied foreman kicked the iron door of the elevator nonchalantly with his miner's rubber shoes, lightly shrugged his shoulders, and his voice was a little hoarse and low under the dust mask.

"Don't be impatient, old Queller. This broken machine will beep two hundred times a day. You just didn't see it. Doesn't it still pull you down? When this damn machine really goes on strike, I will let it go. It'll be restored to its original state, and trust me, I'll spend the money to fix this piece of shit once and for all, but not now, while you're here, no way."

Lester was stunned and couldn't help but take a step back to make way for the slobbering Laurie. Unlike the polite and polite person on the surface, the foreman's words were a bit muddled and did not fit the definition of a 'civilized person of Zaun'.

On the other side, when he saw Lester taking the initiative to move out of the silent passage, the old miner Queller, who was feeling suffocated, took off the dust mask on his mouth and spat thick phlegm on the ground.

"It's your fault, but it's enough for me to come here only once. Moreover, we have agreed a long time ago that I am only responsible for leading the way to the entrance. I will not follow you into the Devil's Mine. Not even dogs will go there."

Lester, who silently lowered his presence, felt instantly offended, but he was not sure if the old miner was targeting him.

Gritting his teeth, knowing that the greedy old miner was taking advantage of every opportunity to ask for benefits, and that he could no longer take care of the mood of the big customer, Laurie cursed.

"Old Kuile, you are such a greedy old man. If this wasn't a big deal assigned by the factory director, I would have kicked your ass hard with my boots.

I'll give you ten more gold coins and give you a pleasant word. Can you get in? "

Hearing this, the old miner's lips couldn't close together, revealing two rare war-damaged large black teeth on his gums.

Lester was convinced that the other teeth had recognized their master's greed and filth.

"Damn it, crows have the nerve to laugh at pigs. You should mend the hole you poked first before talking to me. Do you really think you have wiped your own butt clean? I can smell your stain from a mountain away. The smell of shit gold coins means that you have served the factory director well, otherwise he would have taken you down long ago."

Seeing that the old miner was still responding to his greetings, Laurie smiled and cursed.

"Then you came here smelling it, right?

Okay, stop talking nonsense, are you going or not? Don't you want to pull him down? I'll find someone else to join. I can't go into the mine without you, an old ghost, right? If you don't do it, there are plenty of people in Zu'an who will do it. Do you really think that you are the only sprout in the elephant's nose? "

Queller smiled without showing any signs of weakness.

"Come in! Ahem, I'm almost dead. Why don't you come in? Just give the money to my son.

That bastard scolded me all day long for eating and drinking from him. Before he died, he left some money for that heartless bastard. When I left, I wouldn’t miss that treacherous son who only knew how to hang around women. I really don’t know what I did. Something went wrong when she gave birth to him, and he gave birth to such a useless thing.

Ha, anyway, it’s not a loss if you, the dirty guy, are with you. "

"Bah, even if you say depressing words, a dog can't spit out ivory. If you want to die, you old man will die first."

The two of them blurted out a Zaun-style curse word without even breathing. Lester stood aside, watching the big gray mouse in the cage stand up again and point fingers at the old miner.

Seeing that his words were of no use, the mouse pointed at Lester with his little finger, hoping that the third party could ease the conflict and increase his probability of survival.

"squeak!!!"

It was only when the mouse was angry that the two Zaans, who had been scolding each other for a long time, finally noticed Lester who was retreating behind him. Their expressions could not help but condense, and Laurie even scratched the back of his head in embarrassment.

"Haha, Master Liszt, don't be offended. This is just the way the lower-class people of Zaun greet each other. We are all bad people. We speak without restraint and are a bit rude. In fact, there is no harm in it. Please believe that Zaun is a civilized city. We After all, such people are in the minority.”

Queller also showed his big black teeth, speaking scheming words with a leaky mouth, and carefully tested.

"Master Liszt, I am just a rough guy who grew up under a mine. I have never said anything civilized. Don't worry about it. But in terms of my ability to do things, please rest assured. I am the most reliable in doing things. Cough cough cough ...I will definitely send you completely into the devil's mine,

But having said that, there is really dirty stuff in the Devil's Mine. Not only one miner heard the strange noise coming from the Devil's Mine, but over the past few years, there have been 182 miners who have disappeared near the Devil's Mine. There must be something dirty, and the mine entrance has been closed for almost two years. Even if it is opened, there will be a lot of poisonous gas left inside. You are a big shot in the Emerald Territory, with thin skin and tender flesh. You really shouldn't take this risk. , you think so, old man? "

"yes……"

"I was fucking talking to my rat, not you."

"For the sake of the life you've spent with that rat of yours, I won't hold you accountable for your bad mouth."

"Squeak! Squeak!"

"Your master is not in a hurry, but you are in a hurry? Little thing, you are just as noisy as your old ghost master.

Mr. Liszt, if you ask me, you can buy this place with confidence. I can guarantee that as long as you don’t go mining near the Devil’s Mine, there will be no weird things. As for whether people will die...

To be honest, this mine has been mined for hundreds of years, and other places are normal accidents. Just that place is a little weird. As long as you don't move there, it won't affect your investment and building a factory here at all. "

"squeak!!!"

In response to the dissuasion of the two men and one mouse, Lester just smiled faintly and said that he could not refuse.

"Let's go. No matter what, I have to go and take a look to feel at ease. Otherwise, there will be no point in me coming down."

Looking at each other, Laurie and Queller could only sigh as Lester refused to accept this trick. Queller put on his mask again and whispered.

"Okay, then you must obey my command, because underneath the mine is not heaven, but hell."
