Chapter 35: Chapter 34 Transport Team Leader_l
Translator: 549690339 |
After carefully storing two valuable treasures, Mu Yuan stared at the pile of garbage identified as worthless in front of him, lost in thought.
He was a bit reluctant to get rid of these things.
He didn’t expect any hidden artifacts from this pile of rubbish; he just felt that it would be too wasteful to throw it away, it was an antique after all!
After a bit of picking through the items, Mu Yuan took items like weathered books, expired potions, and broken equipment, and packed them up simply.
He had no decent bag to carry everything, and the skeletons like Dead Bone couldn’t weave a basket. It seemed like there was no equipment available that could store all the items.
However, after he summoned the Dead Bone from reality last time, Mu Yuan discovered some intriguing uses of the Lord’s Seal.
— As long as the troops carried the items, he could then place the items into his Mark Space for safekeeping.
Although he could not carry too much or transport to the real world, it functioned as a miniature spatial storage bag.
It was just a bit on the smaller side.
He glanced at Dead Bone, “Take whatever you want from the remaining items. The more we can carry, the better. Even waste can be utilized.”
With that, he left the tower.
Guys like ‘Bone Two’ and Bone Three didn’t have a clue about limits, and they might accidentally dismantle the tower — he wasn’t worried if the tower got dismantled, he had already taken what he wanted. His concern was being inside when it falls.
Soon, under the translation and command of Dead Bone, the skeletons walked out each carrying some peculiar items.
Some had bucket lids on their heads; some filled their armor with sand and rocks, but they were leaking out; the skeleton carrying the most items was ‘Bone Two’. It had stuffed some sundry items in its vacant chest cavity and other holes, truly making full use of its limited wit.
The large Slime, however, was not able to carry anything.
If it was placed on it, it would slide off after a while. Placed inside it? It would easily cause indigestion and all sorts of accidents.
They were just Slimes, not a dimensional space bag, everything couldn’t be dumped inside them.
“Wait, where’s Duo Lai?”
His big fleshy footpad seemed to still be inside.
At the broken tower gate, a blob of indescribable material squeezed out.
It was a few sizes bigger than the Big Slime. At first glance, it seemed to be an ellipse-shaped heap of random objects, not resembling a slime at all.
Upon closer inspection, one could discern it was a glob of mucus enveloping various bits and pieces.
…One still couldn’t tell it was a slime though.
“Duo Lai?”
“Goo…Goo..Jii…”
It, it couldn’t move anymore.
If it couldn’t move, then carry fewer things!
Mu Yuan was exasperated, but Duo Lai simply couldn’t bear to part with any of the objects. If it wasn’t for the fact it couldn’t pull anymore, it would’ve tried to lug even more.
After much coercion, Mu Yuan convinced Duo Lai to adopt the ‘batch transport’ method.
Duo Lai’s big eyes lit up like light bulbs, uttering “goo jii goo jii”. It seemed to have learned a new method.
Mu Yuan, too, learned a new operation.
” It’s settled, from now on, you’ll be the Transport Captain, Duo Lai.”
“G00…G00 Jii?”
Duo Lai would need to run a few more trips to bring all the miscellaneous items back to the territory, likely working till nightfall.
But that didn’t matter.
The dilapidated tower was not far from the south of the territory. Given the power currently possessed by the territory, moving around at night was not dangerous.
Mu Yuan was pondering, “Since Duo Lai is so good at transporting things, why not dismantle the entire dilapidated tower and bring it back?” After all, to truly build the Mage Tower, necessary materials need to be invested. In this case, the waste materials dismantled from the dilapidated tower could fill this gap to some extent, right?
Whether it could or not, trying it wouldn’t hurt. It would not take too much effort.
Just Duo Lai’s effort.
No,
Since Duo Lai is so eager to move things, it is very happy and very voluntary. Roughly speaking, it equates to no effort.
“However, since I’ve conferred Duo Lai as the head of the transportation team, I need to further evolve it… At the very least, after evolving, its capacity to transport should significantly increase.”
“Hmm, I should buy some Remnant Souls of Little Slime tomorrow at the association.”
After controlling the character back to the territory, Mu Yuan takes a rest.
He switched to the Tai Xuan Forum. What the new players in the newbie area talked about the most was the resource assessment that had attracted the most attention recently.
One after another, the slightly hopeful newcomers were continuously jockeying for the spot. Even those players whose family conditions were not affluent bought Remnant Souls by spending all their fortune, just to vie for the resources distributed by the association.
After all, the more ordinary players wanted to get through the Lord Trial, the more they needed to seize this opportunity provided by the Officials.
Mu Yuan considered that he had a bit of evolution ability and was confident about getting through the Lord Trials, but for an ordinary player who can pass the Lord Trials without needing the benefits from the Officials… These existed, but were more noticeable.
Moreover, who doesn’t love benefits, especially when they are free?
Being a poor ordinary person, Mu Yuan was quite covetous of this valuable benefit.
“Defense troops are one thing, but it’s rumored that the Officials’ newcomer support pack includes Miracle Blueprints for defense structures.”
Of course, it’s not like the Rare Level Miracle Blueprints like the Mage Tower, but even ordinary level Miracle Blueprints are valuable and play a huge role. As for him, it’s not even a matter of not being able to afford them. He doesn’t even have a channel to buy them.
Mu Yuan seriously suspected that the Forum Trade Area he saw was simply a trade area for ‘new and ordinary old players’. He had never seen anything like the Miracle Blueprints. Of course, the possibility that Lord-class commodities had strategic value and were under control was not ruled out.
He suspected that only by mixing into the Lord circle could these commodities be purchased.
Mu Yuan coveted blueprints as well as universal resources like Soul Sand.
“Not only that, after the assessment, Officials will disclose some lord data to players, including key points of territory construction, conditions for territory upgrade, how to obtain high-quality Territory Citizens, and so on.”
“This information is even more important to me.”
In the Eternal World, there are naturally ordinary citizens, but his territory is located in a wild area where players are rarely seen, let alone ordinary citizens.
In the cities of Great Lords, there live countless Territory Citizens.
Ordinary citizens can take various jobs, filling the gap that troops can only fight. And high-quality Territory Citizens… include talents in combat, research, production, management, etc.
However, ordinary people in the Eternal World seem to come not only from reproduction but also from many other sources.
These might only be known to him after he passes the resource assessment, or even becomes a real Lord.
The assessment day in Baiyun State is tomorrow.
On the forum, many Baiyun State newcomers have started to become nervous. Today is the sixth day of logging into the game. At this time, most new players have been rescued by the Official Team and moved to the safe city established by Great Lords. The remaining new players are all trying to compete for resource benefits.
Many newcomers are not very confident, but what if they pass? What if the other new players of the same period are not very good, then they would have a chance to stand out, right?
It’s worth a shot!
If they can’t win a place, they will strategically retreat.
The newcomers are seizing the last night, putting full effort into making their main force practice, hoping to break through another small level.
They are also constantly prying into the level of their peers through the forum to make judgments.
Mu Yuan didn’t feel much nervous, but he also needed to figure out what level could freeload the benefits and… yet not to stand out too much..
