Chapter 609 Mysterious Notes and Ideas of the Hard Work Camp!
Looking down from a high altitude, Donghou Mountain is just an insignificant dot in the New World, not much bigger than a sesame seed.
The cliff territory in Donghou Mountain is even smaller.
It's so small that no one knows that there is a remaining human gathering here after leaving this mountaintop and this vast mountain range.
However, the first night of travel.
The cliff territory can still be regarded as a comfortable haven, allowing everyone to have enough rest time to restore their physical strength at night.
After interrogating the two Liu brothers, the soldiers were summoned to continue to detain them.
Somo took the few things he got and found a corner where no one would disturb him and sat down.
A lot happened tonight, and a lot was gained, so it needs to be sorted out.
Needless to say, there are three illustrated books recording different directions. These things are of high value. Even if Somo has an extraordinary memory now, he could only take a rough look at them in a hurry.
From now on, only by reading and absorbing it day and night can all the anecdotes and insights inside be engraved in my mind and become my own.
In addition, the Adventure Mechanic No. 2, which was previously lost on Donglong Mountain and stored the terrain of the next mountain, has also been successfully found.
When the little guy finished his exploration and returned to the foot of the mountain, he accidentally slipped and fell into the dark cave used by the Liu brothers to escape.
After that, due to the judgment of the logic program, the Adventure Mechanic made a lot of noise in order to go out.
After being discovered by the two Liu brothers.
Because of its unusual appearance and sci-fi feel, and because I was afraid of being visited by the owner, I temporarily stored it in the storage space.
If we hadn't accidentally bumped into each other tonight, we happened to bump into the two of them and interrogate them carefully.
I am afraid that this expensive and adventurous mechanic will be stored in the storage space of the two people forever, lost in the void.
Except these two things.
The notebook and remote control that Liu Quan retrieved from the corpse at the entrance of the ruins can now be considered to have officially changed hands.
"I'm afraid this thing was made by people from the Yan Kingdom."
"This technology exists on Earth, but it will never be used in this area!"
First picking up the tile that looked like a remote control, Sumo began to look at it carefully.
In terms of appearance, this thing looks a bit like a mobile phone from the 1990s, very bulky.
It's not light in hand, I estimate it weighs about six pounds.
But unlike its rough appearance, the manufacturing process of this thing is extremely sophisticated. There is not a single crack in the whole body, nor any gap that can be opened or closed.
It gives people a natural feeling.
"Try using system identification?"
After concentrating his eyes, he received Soma's call, and green light began to spread out.
A few seconds later, the green light recovered and brought back a brief message.
【??Communicator (normal)】
[Description]: A device that can be used to communicate with specific objects. It is incredibly strong and can withstand most physical impacts without being damaged.
[Battery]: 17%/100% (the talk time after turning on is 4.2 minutes)
[Charging method]: Specific container charging
【Call to】:???
[Opening method]: Locked (500 survival points required to unlock)
[Evaluation]: In the hands of some people, he is very important, in the hands of some people, he is not important.
"The designated subject's communicator?"
"Where does this lead?"
If the specified object has been built in, it means that the frequency in the communicator has been set and pointed to a fixed location in the wasteland.
Under such conditions, even if the communication frequency of the communicator is known in advance, the call cannot be connected without decoding.
In the civilized era, such good things are rare. Most of them are used by top executives for cross-border communication or to issue some orders that may affect the world structure.
But in this wasteland.
"This thing is most likely related to Yanguo's secrets. I can't act rashly."
"Let it go for now, wait until we are completely back in the territory and everything is stable."
Somehow, Sumo felt a hint of threat from this thing.
This feeling is not groundless, but a premonition blessed by Oreo's sixth sense.
After carefully putting it into the deepest part of the storage space and covering it with some rags, Somo withdrew and picked up two notebooks to examine them.
The cover of the notebook was slightly stained with blood, and it smelled like blood that had been in contact with the air for a long time.
Several large characters were printed crookedly on the top. After carefully identifying them for a while, even though Somo had extraordinary experience, he still couldn't figure out what this thing was talking about.
"A child's doodle?"
The handwriting in the notebook is exactly as Liu Quan described it. It is an incomprehensible symbol that makes people dazzled at a glance.
Not to mention that the Liu brothers were very angry after getting this thing.
When he thought of risking his life to snatch this thing from others, even Somo felt the same way.
only.
After taking a closer look, Sumo discovered several important points.
"It's not like that, it's not like that!"
"The records in this thing are definitely not written randomly. Just looking at these symbols, it is obvious that there is a set of rules in it!"
From the first page to the last page.
Remembering the appearance of a symbol, Somo began to search patiently.
Sure enough, in a notebook with more than 60 pages, the first character appeared a total of eight times.
Moreover, every time this character is used, the characters connected afterwards are different from the previous times, which means that it has its own meaning and is not a useless cycle.
"System, give me an appraisal!"
The two notebooks contained unknown secrets, so Somo had no choice but to summon the system for identification.
And this time, the appraisal was not as expected. It just took a flick and returned with an extremely simple panel.
【???Research Notes】
[Description]: A research notebook recording the life-long work of Kedri Shaman
【Language】: secret language
[Evaluation]: None
Two notebooks.
The property columns are all three lines, and simply give the name of the notebook owner and the language represented by the symbols in the notebook.
Know these.
Apart from letting Sumo know that this thing is indeed valuable, there is no other way to interpret it.
"Secret words"
"You can pay attention to it in the future. If you can find a creature that is proficient in this kind of language, or find a corresponding dictionary analysis, this thing may be of value!"
Keeping this in mind, he also placed the notebook in the storage space. Somo gathered his thoughts and sat up straight.
The gains from these items can be taken away directly through the storage space, which is extremely convenient.
But on the other side.
We need to think carefully about how to arrange the Liu brothers, a group of prisoners, and the peons who choose to support.
"Originally I wanted to use the Liu brothers to establish authority, but under the current circumstances, I don't need this method. I'm going to convince this group of people who are willing to follow me."
"Moreover, killing people rashly in front of them will easily leave a bad impact, which is not worth the loss."
After detailed inquiry records and verification of ordinary hard labor in the cave.
Although the twenty-five prisoners detained in the material warehouse were full of evil deeds, they used all kinds of means to oppress these ordinary people who were deceived.
But when it comes to being full of evil and infuriating both humans and gods, there is no such thing.
Of the twenty-five people, only three of them actually carried human lives.
Moreover, the murders committed on these three people occurred when they first arrived in the wasteland, and had nothing to do with the cliff territory.
In this case, Soma is not a saint who can deal with all injustices in the world and cannot tolerate any darkness.
Decide on the treatment directly.
"Death penalty can be avoided, but living crime cannot be avoided!"
"The greatest punishment for these people is to drain them of all their remaining value and let them use the rest of their lives to pay for the crimes they have committed!"
After summing up, Sumo immediately made the decision:
The two Liu brothers at the head will serve as guides for the team on their way to the center, responsible for leading the way and detecting dangers ahead.
If you can successfully walk all the way to the center, you will reach the origin territory where the two left before.
Then Sumo will promise to set the two of them free and give them another chance to start a new life.
The same is true for the remaining twenty-three scumbags who had helped the tyrants in the past.
Although they don't have to follow him to the center of the mountains, they must also bear some price to repay the evil they committed during this period.
Before the large army returns, these people will wear bracelets and anklets, and will be monitored by the three remaining soldiers to ensure that no vicious incidents or escapes occur.
Wait until Sumo leads his team to return after exploring the interior of the Wanli Mountain and pass by here again.
These prisoners will be brought back together with the ordinary civilians who are willing to return to the territory.
The difference is.
After civilians who have not committed crimes return to the territory, they will enjoy all the treatment that normal territorial citizens can enjoy, and will not be restricted in any aspects such as trade, education, life, etc.
However, these prisoners who are organized into territorial hard labor camps will begin serving their sentences according to the seriousness of their individual crimes.
Before the end of their sentence, they will not receive any salary and must complete daily designated tasks in order to receive basic survival supplies for the day.
At the same time, everyone must accept unified management and unified accommodation.
It's just like prison reform in civilized times, except it's not as strict.
After their sentences are over, after a certain period of observation and a release order signed by Sumo himself, these people will be restored to the treatment of ordinary civilians.
"In the future, the bigger the stalls will be, the larger the territory will be, and the more people I will bring back from outside."
"We must pay more attention to measures in terms of rewards and punishments. We must fundamentally cut off the possibility of everyone breaking the law in the territory. This is the meaning of the code."
Sumo tentatively made a preliminary plan for personnel arrangements.
After all, this is something you can think about along the way.
After returning to the territory, we can continue to discuss with Su Deben, Chen Shen and others, and there is no rush.
On the contrary, it is the group of mysterious people in the origin territory who are the biggest threat during this trip!
"these people"
"The game actually doesn't care about it and allows them to use the wealth accumulated from the last participation to unfairly attack the people who participated this time."
The difference in numbers was forty to fifty times. Even if these people were just a mob, they shouldn't have lost so miserably.
But I thought:
On one side are the remnants of the Yan Kingdom who have developed in the wasteland for more than ten years and accumulated a large amount of materials and technological power.
On the one hand, it seems that the game is progressing very quickly, but in fact it has only been five months, and all the basics are basically zero.
The two collided together, just like an adult hitting a child, and the latter had no power to fight back.
Sumo was quickly relieved again.
"According to Marshal Wang's intelligence, after these people entered the origin territory, they did not massacre, but only used their wives and daughters to threaten the lord and unify the entire camp."
"This basically shows that they are not murderous people, but also have their own demands and ideas."
people.
As long as you ask for something, there will be flaws.
The same goes for these mysterious people who resurrected from the ruins. As long as they have something they are looking for, they will definitely reveal their clues.
"But right now, we can only take one step at a time. If their strength is so strong that even I have to stay away, then I can only swallow my anger and go back to develop slowly."
"Wait until I have similar power in my hand before we make an agreement!"
Think about all these things carefully.
With a certain determination in his heart, Somo's mind quickly cleared and he completely recovered his thoughts.
In the distance, the soldier in charge of cooking also prepared a simple dinner, brought it to the table and started to drink.
"Director, why don't you bark when you're eating?"
Seeing that Somo had finished his meditation, Feng Tianmin, who had been standing nearby, walked over and pursed his lips at the hard workers who were staying in the corner and looking at the cauldron eagerly.
Living on the cliff, the food for all the hard workers was extremely poor.
For the past few days, not to mention ordinary hard labor, even the food of the two Liu brothers was indispensable with grass roots and tree bark.
Only during the few days of the disaster, Liu Quan released his inventory, took out some rice bran brought in from outside, and gave everyone more nutrition in order to survive this disaster.
"Let's eat together. We'll be leaving tomorrow anyway. If these twenty-five people join in, they won't be able to eat much from us."
"It can be considered a small reward for them to support us!"
After turning his head and glancing around, showing a warm smile, Somo stood up.
Soma has never been stingy with his own people.
After receiving the order, Feng Tianmin left quickly.
Half a moment.
After hearing a loud cheer from the group of hard workers, Sumo laughed happily while eating the noodles in the bowl.
Food is always the wasteland's best magic weapon to win over people's hearts.
Quick-frozen dumplings, noodles with mixed sauce, and fried chicken drumsticks come out in one package.
Not to mention these people, even those hard-talking hard workers on the other side of the cave must be able to surrender in an instant!
Just for tonight's meal alone, even if the team was delayed for more than ten days and a half.
Sumo was completely relieved that these people would stay here and wait for him until the end of time!
"After eating, let's arrange for someone to stay overnight and sleep early. We have to be on our way early tomorrow morning."
Pay attention to the original soup and original food.
After eating two large bowls of noodles and drinking a bowl of noodle soup, Somo comfortably commandeered a relatively clean small bed and lay down first.
moment.
As a slight snoring sounded, the entire room gradually fell into the darkness of night, filled with drowsiness.
