Chapter 499 Tree people in ancient times, five-level alliance agreement (two-in-one)
Almost all the people on earth who survive in the wasteland world know the cruelty of "aliens".
Limited by the inherent impression, when seeing this kind of creature outside the cognitive boundary, everyone's first reaction is definitely not to cooperate, but to
cautious!
Be on guard!
Sumo thought he was brave enough, but he hadn't fully understood the situation yet.
He began to make plans to unite with other surrounding races to drive away tigers and devour wolves.
But he didn't expect it.
The goal of cooperation is to cultivate people from other races and be bolder.
Maybe it's because of the complexity of the surrounding situation.
As the number of dwarves increases, the Empire of Light and the Demon Soul are at the same level in strength.
To this neighbor who had just moved here, Shuren took the initiative to send his kindness.
April 4th is the ninety-fourth day since humans descended into the deep sea.
The clock in the living room had just passed five o'clock. Sumo, who was still in a deep sleep, suddenly stood upright, opened his eyes and sat on the bed.
The next second, a light green panel appeared in front of his eyes, illuminating the slightly dark bedroom.
Hearing the noise, the alert Oreo flew down.
But after discovering that it was Sumo who got up, he obediently lay down beside the bed and closed his eyes in a hazy voice.
Following the sound coming from the second floor, Sumo heard the sound of rain.
Bigger than yesterday!
The moderate rain identified by the system is obviously not rainfall in the conventional sense.
In terms of magnitude, the current rainfall can definitely be considered a heavy rainstorm on earth!
"Fortunately, the agricultural tool making center was released last night, otherwise such rainfall would be difficult for the villagers who only have tents."
"What a disaster!"
My heart sank and I drank the psionic water prepared on the bedside table.
After making sure that all the sleepiness in his mind had receded, he leaned against the backboard and stared at the flashing game panel.
Most functions are blocked, and the presence of the game panel has dropped to an unprecedented low.
But in this early morning before dawn, I saw the green letter floating in the middle of the interface and the sapling stamp in the upper right corner.
There was a hint of solemnity in Sumo's eyes.
Turn your thoughts into form and click to open.
As the game detects the identity of the lord, the saplings gradually disappear, and the letter also stretches into another appearance under the extension of the animation.
"Is this a video?"
Looking at the familiar triangular playback arrow in the center, Sumo was surprised, but his hand did not slow down and gently touched the arrow.
The next second, the surrounding space disappeared, as if wearing VR glasses, and the area changed instantly.
"What the hell. This. Is this a tree man?"
As soon as he entered this unfamiliar video space, Sumo immediately raised his head and looked around.
Seeing this, he was stunned on the spot.
It's not like Somo has never seen trees tens of meters tall on Earth.
He was lucky enough to see even towering trees that were nearly 100 meters tall several times, and felt the insignificance of a person in nature.
Soma originally thought that people would not feel more awe and fear in trees that were higher due to the sight.
But now, he was wrong.
When he saw this big tree that was at least over three hundred meters tall, a sense of alertness originating from the creature's heart made him tense up for a moment.
"Hello Sumo, the king of humans from the distant earth, I am Zhu Ling, the leader of the ancient Shu people."
"I'm glad you chose this place. Maybe, I mean, if you are willing, we can become good friends!"
It's like a subwoofer blasting in your ears.
When the tree man spoke, the leaves, branches, and soil all trembled.
Then, he seemed to realize that his size was too large.
The next moment, the tree man began to shrink rapidly, and finally turned into an ancient tree over ten meters tall.
"Zhu Ling? Guzao Shu Human Race?"
"Is it possible that it has something to do with our earth?"
Thinking about the message conveyed by the tree man and looking at the anthropomorphic face on the tree trunk, Sumo was confused, but since it was a video, he could only continue watching.
"In the eastern half, you are the eighth lord to join"
"And around us, whether it is the dwarves, the aliens, or the demon souls, they are all powerful and restless neighbors."
"The Shuren tribe naturally advocates peace. We firmly believe that the enemies are definitely not each other, and the goal is not to compete with each other. The goal is to work together to resist natural disasters."
Lift up a thick branch and wave it in the air.
In the void, a small map naturally emerged.
Following the instructions of the tree man Zhu Ling, Somo immediately found his location, which was marked by a gray and black mark.
Then, the green part belonging to the tree man lit up again.
The next moment, a zigzag green line began to connect in series between the two, eventually forming a connection.
[Record]: Lord Sumo, the ancient tree-man lord Zhu Ling applies to establish an alliance with you (level five)
[Record]: In the new continent, as long as the core sanctuary level of the territory reaches level five or above, alliance relationships with other territories can be established.
[Record]: The two parties in the current territory: Guzao Shuren (level 5) and Somo Depression (level 6), can initially reach a level 5 alliance relationship.
[Record]: Once the five-level alliance relationship is established, it will last for thirty natural days. Within these natural days, both parties to the alliance must abide by the relationship agreement. Unilateral breach of contract will be punished by the breach of contract clause. Please carefully decide whether to enter into the relationship.
Treaty content:
1. Subordinate members of both sides of the alliance can, with consent, enter the other's territory to conduct visits, trade, study, interact, etc., without being interfered by the coercion of the territory, and can pass freely.
2. Both sides of the alliance shall not assign members to deliberately destroy the other party's territory, including but not limited to attacking territorial residents, destroying resources, stealing resources, etc. Otherwise, it will be deemed as a breach of contract.
Third, both parties in the alliance can conduct private trade or trade witnessed by the game (private trade is not protected by treaties, while witnessed trade is protected by treaties, but a certain amount of disaster points must be paid)
4. Territory replacement. Both parties can sell their subjects to join the other party's territory and enjoy the attribute bonus of the other party's territory (note: after the subjects join, they will not be subject to the restrictions of Article 1 or 2, please choose carefully)
[Record]: Penalty for breach of contract (one-time payment of one million disaster points, or the territory’s core shelter will disappear permanently)
As the most basic alliance agreement, the five-level agreement only briefly outlines four agreements.
The first one eliminates the pressure that both parties will bear after entering each other's territory.
The second article is to ensure to a certain extent that when the opponent's personnel enter the territory, they will not instantly turn against each other and turn into self-destructing trucks.
As for Article 34, it supplements the trade agreement.
"I'm really sleepy. Someone brought me a pillow. This alliance agreement is good."
"I agree to form a fifth-level alliance agreement with the ancient tree people!"
After reading the previous alliance agreement and only glancing at the penalties for breach of contract at the back, Sumo chose to agree without hesitation.
It is unrealistic to expect the simplest alliance agreement to protect ourselves.
At the very least, while looking at the rules, Sumo's mind came up with several ways to fix the bug.
But in the absence of any choice, this agreement is indeed the basic prerequisite for both parties to open up "routes" and generate trade.
And for example, Sumo didn't believe a word of the nonsense that Shuren Zhu Lingkou said about advocating peace and not fighting each other.
People are hard to break down.
If you want to develop well in this new continent, you must stick to each other and embezzle each other's interests.
Once there is a chance to win over several other neighbors, Sumo fully believes it.
These seemingly kind-looking tree people will definitely turn into war madmen immediately and rush into the opponent's territory crazily to launch an attack.
Burning, killing and looting must be self-taught!
"Yesterday's changes in the depression really attracted the attention of the surrounding neighbors."
"Before they found out my details, Zhu Ling, the tree man, was very smart. He was the first to offer me an olive branch and wanted to be the first to take advantage of me."
"If I don't agree and show any signs of weakness, I'm afraid."
After ending the alliance agreement and watching the video slowly disappear, Sumo had a cautious look on his face.
At first, Sumo chose to place his territory here and compete with these giant aliens, and he was fully mentally prepared.
In such an environment, every step is like walking a tightrope. Once a choice is made, countless chain reactions may occur.
Now, although everything is developing in the direction envisioned.
But after standing up, Sumo still had an extremely urgent desire for strength!
"Hey, Sumo, it's only six o'clock, you got up so early!"
"It's raining a lot outside. I can't sleep anymore. I'll go out later and see what's going on outside!"
In the garage, Lu Kuan, who controlled the robot, was still busy doing experiments.
Although limited by energy constraints, some large machines cannot be started.
But it also happened to be this opportunity that gave me time to study some small branches of the field.
After wandering around for a while, we returned to the third floor.
Wash.
Start the storage of psionic water for today.
Pour the excess diesel into several tanks parked on the first floor of the machinery.
After doing this, I saw that the time was just after six o'clock.
Somo came to the first floor, put on his raincoat, pulled out the winch, and began to rise slowly.
Wow!
Just by opening the calf-high slit, the rain outside blew in with the northwest wind and hit the trouser legs.
Without sound insulation, the sound of raindrops hitting the ground also penetrated into Somo's eardrums.
Continuing to pull away until he was half a person tall, Somo squatted down and ran out vigorously.
The land directly in front of the shelter has been hardened and has not been washed away even by heavy rain, but is only slightly muddy.
Step firmly on the ground and lower the winch.
After walking up the high slope of the shelter and looking at the ground in the distance, Somo couldn't help but take a breath of cold air.
The ground that had been soaked by sea water had developed a large number of cracks after many days of drying.
After yesterday's repairs with an increase in potential value and the erosion of rain, although most of the cracks have now healed.
But in some low-lying areas, the cracks have not diminished.
Instead, they all exploded like spider webs, with white salt floating on them.
If this kind of terrain is not treated quickly, the salt will re-disperse into the soil after the rainy day, causing secondary damage.
"Trouble, if you want to go out to work in this weather, you have to consider the dangers."
"No, after eight o'clock, today's points must be added to the weather!"
"Even if the rain cannot stop completely, we must quickly contain the intensifying rain, otherwise if it continues, the foundation will collapse and we will be doomed!"
Walking down the high slope, step by step, through the mud.
Fifteen minutes later, Sumo, covered in mud and water, arrived at the door of the Farm Tool Center.
The yaks that were still running leisurely in the grassland yesterday have now been brought to the vicinity of the Farm Tool Center and are lying on the eaves of the house.
Ten sheep were lying down at the entrance, looking extremely comfortable.
For this kind of animal, such rainy days make them more comfortable.
Nodding to the two militiamen on duty at the door, Sumo "quietly" walked in.
Inside the center, along the separate partitions, everyone was lying on the ground.
Some people cover themselves with quilts, while others simply cover them with two old clothes.
But most people still choose to hug each other, relying on the number of people to keep their body temperature from dropping too fast.
At this time, it is the coldest time of the night and the body's lowest heat.
In the management rest area, Chen Shen, Pei Shao, Shen Ke, Zhang Long and others were already awake.
But his face was also full of exhaustion.
"Director, you are here!"
"How is it going!"
"Fortunately, there are only about 20 people who have a fever because of too much rain. Most people just have a mild cold and a little itchy throat. They can just wait until the rain stops to move around!"
Pointing to the person who was shivering in the corner because of a fever, Chen Shen said "pretending to be relaxed".
Human beings are very adaptable, but their physical constitution is still pitifully weak.
The more than twenty people looked very thin, and most of them were women.
Seeing Somo's gaze drifting past, everyone reluctantly raised their heads and gave a slightly sad smile.
As for the number of people with colds, in another corner, coughs could be heard one after another.
"Where's breakfast, how's it going?"
"It'll be ready soon. You can start eating in half an hour. You'll also have porridge and steamed buns and pickles!"
Shen Ke led the way, and soon, the group arrived at the back of the Farm Tool Center, where there was a simple kitchen covered with an awning.
The center looks miserable inside.
There is a touch of moving smoke from the kitchen outside.
The moist firewood, conveyed by the wind of the manual blower, emitted bursts of thick smoke, rising straight into the sky.
In the pot, the white rice porridge was tumbling up and down, exuding a mouth-watering aroma.
Seeing Su Mo and others approaching, the head chef quickly took out the porridge from the cooked pot, and put a breakfast on the table under the simple awning.
Crisp and delicious pickled cabbage, grey-black pickled radish shreds with a pleasant salty aroma.
Three steamed buns and a bowl of white porridge.
Knowing that Sumo didn't like formalism and specialization, the head chef didn't dare to sell anything privately and treated everyone equally.
"Wait a minute, let everyone take a sip of this water, and pour the rest into the porridge bucket."
"For those with colds and fevers, drink more."
Before dinner, in front of everyone, he looked into the void, and a Nongfu Spring that could hold 5 liters of water appeared in Somo's hand.
Plastic buckets are ordinary, nothing special about them.
But the water inside is actually the second upgraded psionic water.
Blue light spots floated up and down inside, exuding an intoxicating color.
With the lid lifted.
Visible to the naked eye, everyone swallowed their saliva and poured a mouthful into their own bowls as Somo ordered.
This time, the taste of the white porridge became more intense under the stimulation of You Neng water.
Even the cooks in the distance had forgotten what they were doing and stared blankly at this place with their eyes wide open.
"Okay, eat quickly, the weather will get cooler soon!"
Picking up a big white steamed bun, with a bite of pickles, a circle of white porridge that was almost overflowing slipped along the edge of the bowl. Somo felt full of happiness while eating.
It was impressive, and others quickly followed suit.
For a moment, the chopsticks were flying and the porridge was eaten.
An extremely comfortable warmth slowly spreads out from your belly and then spreads throughout your body.
At the same time, when the porridge bucket with added psionic water was carried into the courtyard.
It also instantly achieved the effect of "getting up".
Even those who were sleeping soundly got up immediately when they smelled the strong smell in the porridge bucket and took out the rice bowl from their chests.
The powerful second-generation psionic water, even if it is diluted hundreds of times, its efficacy cannot be ignored.
After people with fever drink white porridge, their body temperature drops rapidly and their spirits improve instantly.
The person who had a cold on the other side recovered immediately after eating a bowl of porridge, as if the cold had never appeared.
Compared with ginger soup, Nether Energy Water is better at repelling cold!
"Unfortunately, once trade is established with the outside world, a large amount of nether energy water will inevitably be used and added. By then, the reserves will be tight!"
After standing at the door and watching for a while, Sumo nodded imperceptibly, turned around and left.
Even if it rains heavily, these villagers will still start today's work after eating.
As a lord, the only thing he can do is
Create better conditions as much as possible!
I took the extra breakfast and returned to the shelter to put it down.
Look at the sweet Su Chan, Moore, Oreo, and Big Sparks that are also eating.
Sumo smiled and sat on the big sofa in the living room.
He kept watching the clock in the living room as the time passed eight o'clock. As Sumo thought, the system panel quietly opened.
The next moment, click on the envelope that has changed to white.
Without looking at the changes above, Sumo pulled it straight down and entered the point acquisition interface.
"Very good. After the territory was upgraded, I actually got 1.1 territory point income today."
