Chapter 3333: Treatment Problem (Revised)
After reaching an agreement with Li Xiniwei on related matters, Su Xiao begins to deal with subsequent matters.
First is the treatment problem of the Pig-headed Men. Previously, a total of 36 Pig-headed Men dared to stand up and resist. In the charge against the Demi-human guards' defense, 36 Pig-headed Men died, leaving only 6, namely Hausman, Steel Teeth, and other Pig-headed Men.
The remaining 637 Pig-headed Men continue to be responsible for mining. These Pig-headed Men are actually reserve combat power. Their treatment cannot be bad. Working hours are adjusted from 20 hours a day to 12 hours a day. In the future, when there are more people, it will be more reliable. Three groups of Pig-headed Men are responsible for one mine pit, rotating once, just 24 hours without stopping.
If it is wartime, all Pig-headed Men who need to participate in the war stop mining to save physical strength.
In addition to working hours, there is also the food problem. There are still 50 units of superior food left. Eat freely, and it can probably be eaten for about 8 days. This doesn't matter. Within 2 to 3 days, Su Xiao will go to the fortress city of the "Sentry Tower" for large-scale procurement.
Working hours and food problems are all arranged. Afterward, it is the rest aspect. Originally, the Pig-headed Men slept in sleeping troughs, which is very unfavorable for forming cliques, that is, it is impossible to cultivate a united atmosphere. This must be changed.
There are many multi-person dormitories for Demi-humans on the third level of the fortress, which can accommodate about 200 Pig-headed Men. The remaining 400-plus people, dismantle the sleeping troughs and throw them out, then take bedding from the warehouse and sleep on the floor on the first level. Pig-headed Men won't catch a cold or anything. Getting bedding is to divide beds and cultivate group consciousness, etc.
The sleeping troughs cannot be kept. They must be thrown out without a single one left. The Pig-headed Men are used to sleeping in them. If they are not thrown out, they will still drill into them. The more they drill, the more honest they become. How to fight in the future?
After arranging these, Su Xiao lets Hausman execute it, and Li Xiniwei assists from it.
Su Xiao needs a Pig-headed Man who can complete trivial matters for him. Hausman has cultivation value, and Steel Teeth, that fool is becoming more and more fierce, but he is still obedient.
The facts are indeed so. The person Steel Teeth fears most is Su Xiao, followed by Hausman, then Baja, and then there is no one else. This Pig-headed Man awakened his nature in a short time. He is a fool, but he is fierce and has a fierce cruelty.
These decisions of Su Xiao make Li Xiniwei feel cold in his spine. This is a smart person who vaguely guessed something, but didn't show it at all.
Is Li Xiniwei a Demi-human? Is he a hidden danger? No problem. Take him to rob a few fortresses in the afternoon, and he will be one of his own.
By that time, Li Xiniwei reporting all this to the "Demi-human Alliance" is equivalent to reporting himself. Robbing the fortresses in this territory is equivalent to robbing the money of the "Demi-human Alliance."
From the moment Su Xiao mastered the Doomsday Fortress, this became a pirate ship. After coming up, unless you become a corpse, don't think about getting off the ship.
More than an hour later, Amu arrives. The small door of the fortress opens. After entering the fortress by climbing the ladder, Amu sees the Pig-headed Men busy dismantling the sleeping troughs.
The number of Demi-humans in the fortress is even smaller, reduced from 40 to 20. Previously, Li Xiniwei said that more than 100 Demi-humans must be kept to maintain the fortress. That was nonsense. The fortress is a living thing and does not need manual maintenance for its operation.
Li Xiniwei is a ruthless businessman. He knows that Su Xiao will not leave 40 hidden dangers in the fortress, so Li Xiniwei selected 20 Demi-humans who are closer to him, telling them that if they want to survive, they must get rid of a former colleague. Having blood of colleagues on their hands is equivalent to having a handle. Only in this way can they survive on the pirate ship.
At this moment, these 20 Demi-humans survived in this way. They command the Pig-headed Men to dismantle the sleeping troughs. A very wonderful scene appears. The Pig-headed Men who were originally submissive and muddled along don't seem to be so obedient. Their eyes when looking at Hausman and Steel Teeth seem to contain admiration and envy.
This change makes the 20 Demi-humans who are accustomed to the tone of reprimand soften their attitude toward the Pig-headed Men. Steel Teeth on the side mutters something, his gaze always wandering among the 20 Demi-humans. This guy is becoming more and more fierce, but he has a principle: don't provoke him actively, and he will never hurt anyone. He was bullied by Demi-human foremen since he was a child and knows that the taste is not good, so he doesn't bully others either.
What attitude these ordinary Demi-humans have is not important. In the entire Demi-human race, the ones who truly occupy the dominant position are those Demi-humans with extraordinary abilities and strong strength. The Demi-human soldiers of the "Demi-human Alliance" are the true enemies.
After hundreds of Pig-headed Men were busy for three hours, all the sleeping troughs were dismantled. The main gate of the fortress opened, and the Pig-headed Men carried the troughs to the oxbow lake.
Not only do they have to throw the sleeping troughs far away, but they also have to take a bath in the lake. This is something Xiang Ignoring Bubu Wang emphasized many times. Every time he went to the first level, he felt choked, and it was a bit overwhelming.
At noon that day, the Pig-headed Men not only took a bath and changed into new mining clothes, but Baja also commanded them to do a big cleaning of the fortress. Other things aside, coming to the first level of the fortress now, the smell is fresh by several grades.
In the restaurant on the third level, the dense sound of chewing and swallowing food comes one after another. This place is almost full of Pig-headed Men, sitting opposite each other in groups of six. They hold large metal lunch boxes 45cm long and 30cm wide, filled with more than half of rice, the rice soaked in meat broth, accompanied by rotten vegetables, plus two eggs, and several large pieces of poultry meat.
The improvement of food has had obvious effects. After a good meal, it is inevitable to be carried away. Some Pig-headed Men start to talk in low voices. When they think that this will lead to having their tongues cut out, they immediately quiet down, but then think that this rule has been abolished, and talking to each other is no one's business.
The environment is different, and everyone's behavior pattern will be different, just like the Pig-headed Men in the restaurant at this time.
Su Xiao gets up and leaves the restaurant. Not long after he left, the conversation in the restaurant gradually disappears, finally becoming quiet. All the Pig-headed Men are no longer talking.
These Pig-headed Men are not stupid. They all know that it was Su Xiao who killed those Demi-humans, and the changes in working hours, food, and rest places were all orders from Su Xiao. Su Xiao was there, and these Pig-headed Men had a kind of inexplicable courage. But Su Xiao left, and they no longer talked at will, subconsciously worrying about the rule that talking at will would lead to having their tongues cut out.
Many people think that Pig-headed Men have a part of domestic pig genes. In fact, it is not. Although they have pig-like genes, that comes from the genes of the "Yakairo Red Wild Boar."
Choosing this way is for the strength and endurance of the Pig-headed Men. The rock layer wrapping the active ore is extremely hard. In the era of mining with machines, more than 90% of the ore income was filled in mechanical wear and tear. The Pig-headed Men who replaced those large machines naturally have excellent genes.
【Prompt: The brand has completed 100% camouflage. It is expected that the world contact platform will be activated in 14 hours. In this contact platform, all speakers are contractors of Apocalypse Paradise.】
Su Xiao is somewhat familiar with this situation. This is the third brand camouflage, and all of them are camouflaged as the brand of Apocalypse Paradise.
Going down to the first level of the fortress, Su Xiao stops at the main gate. An armored vehicle with the top removed is parked here. Xiang Ignoring Bubu Wang is already in the driver's seat. This armored vehicle... is very distinctive.
Sitting in the passenger seat, Su Xiao attempts to control the fortress to open the main gate. Accompanied by a subtle sense of vibration, the main gate of the fortress, nearly 8 meters wide and 12 meters high, opens outward, resembling a lowered suspension bridge, turning into a slope, allowing vehicles to pass.
Baja, Lie Chao, Li Xiniwei, Hausman, and Steel Teeth all get on the car. Each of them has a long coat made of animal skin. The fur is not processed, and there is a hood design.
Not only that, but on the lower half of their faces, they all wear black skull-style metal masks. This set of clothes is not custom-made. Hunters and some scavengers usually have similar outfits.
What Su Xiao is about to do is the dirty work that hunters and scavengers have been engaged in for many years. Throwing the blame on them is a routine operation.
Xiang Ignoring Bubu Wang steps on the accelerator to the end, and the open-top armored vehicle rushes out. A moment later, the oxbow lake gradually fades away from the line of sight, and the wind whistles past his ears.
Su Xiao takes out the map. According to Li Xiniwei, there is a "neighbor" 16 kilometers away. That fortress is also T5-tier, a pair of Demi-human siblings, rented from a company in the "Alliance Fortress City."
In Li Xiniwei's words, that pair of Demi-human siblings is even more ruthless than him, letting the Pig-headed Men work 22 hours a day. If it weren't for the Pig-headed Men's strong physical tolerance, a large batch would have been exhausted to death.
In the T5 fortresses nearby, each has 600 to 700 Pig-headed Men. These Pig-headed Men can be taken back as reserve combat power. Even if they can't become combat power, letting them mine is also very profitable.
If this causes trouble and the whereabouts of the Pig-headed Men are found out, it doesn't matter. Just say they were bought from a group of scavengers. Pig-headed Men are commodities in the eyes of Demi-humans, which is true, but there is no concept of stolen goods in this world. Even if you go to the tribunal of the "Demi-human Alliance," it will end up with nothing in the end.
The distance of more than ten kilometers is not far. Su Xiao just took a nap, and when he opened his eyes, he found that "T5-395 Fortress" was already in front, no more than 1 kilometer away. Xiang Ignoring Bubu Wang stops the car.
At the same time, on a low slope in the distance, a total of 12 people are ambushing here, looking at the fortress a kilometer away. They have already targeted this goal and are prepared to rob it on the way. According to the information in the contact platform, they can handle a T5-tier fortress with their 12-person squad.
These 12 people are from Holy Light Paradise and are also participants in this world conquest war. At the current stage, after half a world core loses notarization, it is adsorbed to a certain place by the power of this world. Only after finding the world core will the war officially begin. Now is free activity time.
"When to do it?"
"After 9 o'clock in the evening. A small number of T5-tier fortresses have biological cannons as defensive means. It's not good to be hit by that thing."
A man with a ponytail speaks. In this squad, there are 7 men and 5 women in total, including three treatment types. In Holy Light Paradise, this situation is not rare.
"Everyone, there is a vehicle approaching. The target is likely the same fortress."
A perception-type imperial sister speaks. Her voice is numb and numb, making people feel heart-stirring.
"Coming to cut the queue?"
The ponytail man's gaze is unkind.
"Yes."
The perception-type imperial sister's eyes open while speaking. She has completed long-distance detection.
"This is a contractor from Apocalypse Paradise. He brought summoned objects and the natives of this world. His specific data was not detected. The war world will lower the detection rank between contractors."
The perception-type imperial sister pauses when she says this, and continues to analyze after analyzing:
"This person is 80% likely to be a summoning type. Without more than 200 points of real charm bonus, it is unlikely that he would find the natives as helpers so quickly, and he brought summoned objects. It won't be wrong. This is the summoning type of Apocalypse Paradise."
After listening to this analysis by the perception-type imperial sister, out of caution, the ponytail man asks: "Was his brand rank detected?"
"Detected, 76."
"Damn, I thought it was a stronger summoning type. It turns out to be a vegetable from Apocalypse Paradise."
The others also speak one after another. A treatment type doesn't speak. She wears a black long dress with a high slit and high heels. Her name is Guang Mu.
Since being cleaned up by the Gray Gentleman, Guang Mu has become exceptionally low-key. This time participating in the world conquest war, she immediately found a small squad. In the near future, she will be like this. The psychological shadow area is too large, and she doesn't want to receive any stimulation.
"Guang Mu, what do you mean?"
The ponytail man asks for Guang Mu's opinion. Guang Mu's strength is there, and she is the strongest in the squad.
"Whatever."
Guang Mu doesn't want to participate in any trouble, but that contractor from Apocalypse Paradise is here to cut the queue. If they don't do it, it's really unreasonable.
Hearing Guang Mu say this, the ponytail man looks around at everyone and gets a similar reply, then says:
"Then get rid of this summoning type. Although the brand rank cannot fully represent strength, the brand rank of 76 means he hasn't experienced many worlds, and at most he is at the middle level of the eighth rank."
The problem is that Su Xiao's brand rank is indeed Lv. 76, but this is because he relied on rewards to lower his brand rank once, and he didn't improve his brand rank after experiencing the Painting World. Otherwise, his brand rank would have been pushed to Lv. 80 long ago.
On the low slope overgrown with weeds, a group of Holy Light Paradise contractors are ready to take action. Guang Mu stands in a slightly rear position. Recently, she has realized a life truth, which is:
"Cherish life, stay away from the Gray Gentleman."
Presumably, if Guang Mu can luckily survive this time, she will realize the second life truth.
PS: (Three chapters written in one day. It has been raining outside. I dare not write continuously on rainy days, fearing to tire my neck.) ===== CHAPTER 3334 =====
On the low slope overgrown with wild grass, a group of Holy Light Paradise Qiyuezhe were already prepared to strike. Guang Mu stood in a slightly rearward position. Recently, she had realized a life lesson, which was:
"Cherish life, stay away from the Gray Gentleman."
Presumably, if Guang Mu could luckily survive this time, she would realize a second life lesson.
PS: (Three chapters, ten thousand words, beginning of the month, requesting monthly votes.)
