After seeing the familiar dwarf's face, the boss suddenly realized a problem. Just now, they were giving a speech and mobilizing people as if no one was paying attention to the situation around them?
As soon as the thought of observation came to mind, the world became wider. The eldest brother looked around and saw the dwarves singing the Dwarven Miners' Song, the familiar Carl, Fettig and Old Vulture, and a huge... banana that was cosplaying as Little Tornado?
The world is changing so fast. The eldest brother wiped his eyes, making a friction sound like rubbing a glass ball. Koloski next to him stood in the queue with his mouth wide open, looking like a silly goose.
"That's right, Boss. Do you remember the human who came to save us?" The rookie finally found the time to interrupt: "This is the new home he is going to bring us to, it's just that the name of this place is a bit ugly."
"Um... Actually, I expected this a long time ago." The boss coughed dryly to save his face. Although this dry statement did not convince Rui Ge next to him, he still stared at the boss with curious eyes until the boss's face could no longer hold back: "I am too familiar with this place... You guys watch my operation carefully."
"Hey, bartender," the boss jumped onto the bar. Now he was one meter tall, and after doing this, he almost blocked the sight of all the dwarves. Facing the dissatisfied eyes of some dwarves next to him, the boss finally decided to jump down from the bar again. He leaned his round body against the bar, and his flat head trembled like an eyebrow: "Do you have any...good stuff here?"
"What kind of good stuff? Tell us so we can know." The former big banana who was in charge of being the bartender was still performing wine swirling with the dwarves. This time, it was a huge tomato that came to entertain the boss. While wiping the wine glass in his hand, he looked at the boss with those listless eyes. The boss always felt that the tomato didn't seem to be really listless, but more like posing.
"It's the good stuff." The eldest brother gestured between his beaks. What he originally wanted was the best sardines, so he tried to be as smooth as possible. But unfortunately his fins were not as flexible as the dwarf's fingers. His little movements did not look like he was gesturing at fish, but more like he was breathing chemical reagents into his nose.
This action made Tomato feel something was wrong. Tomato squinted his eyes and glanced at the boss. He put down the wine glass he was wiping, took out his usual felling axe from the counter below, and chopped the axe into the wooden board of the bar with a "bang". He looked at the boss who was subconsciously shrinking his fins by the momentum, and said word by word with a disdainful expression: "This store does not provide any addictive drugs or tobacco. It only provides alcohol, beverages, and box services."
"Damn it, how come you don't understand?" The eldest realized that he was misunderstood and slammed his two fins heavily on the bar. I don't know how much of it was anger at being misunderstood, and how much was embarrassment at making a fool of himself in front of other penguins: "I want fish, smooth, fishy, and lively fish. Do our beaks look like they can be used to smoke?"
"Sorry, Boss." The rookie's giggle interrupted the boss's coherent emotions. The rookie tried to hold his face, but couldn't help laughing out loud: "Sorry, Boss, I can't help it."
“Forget it, come here and order whatever you want.” The boss covered his face. He felt that his non-existent authority as captain was falling apart.
The tomato bartender slapped a menu on the table. Although this is a "bar", it is also a milk tea shop, a beverage shop, an ice cream shop and half a food store. As for why it is not a coffee shop... Hell is still trying to figure out how to turn coffee trees into vegetables. The cultivation is only halfway through, and maybe after two days in the inner ring where the time flow is normal, the coffee trees can be cultivated in the outer ring after twenty-four days.
In the end, except for the rookie who loved desserts so much and chose a three-layer ice cream cone, the other three penguins asked for what they eat most often - fish. However, the fish was a little different from what they imagined. They thought they could get fresh live fish (actually there was, but they didn't want it), but in the end what they were handed were three cans that looked very thick.
The can had no decoration or paint, it was just the plainest bright silver shell with only a line of "Military Unprocessed Live Fish" written in several languages on the side and a fish logo drawn on it. There was no other information, not even a production date or expiration date.
"Are you sure this... is okay?" The eldest brother was a little unsure. The canned sardines he had eaten before, not to mention how colorful the appearance was, at least had all kinds of instructions and shelf life. Now this thing has a cheap appearance, not to mention it doesn't even have the most basic shelf life. How could they dare to eat it?
“Things in hell won’t go bad, so why should they have a shelf life?” The tomato seemed to have heard something incredible. You know, all these products are placed in the “capitalists’ purse”, which is a warehouse with frozen time, unlimited capacity, and self-proliferation. Is there any need to write a shelf life?
Only the items that are confirmed to be taken out for trade will be stamped with the expiration date of the day when they are shipped out of the warehouse. Why do the things for personal consumption have to be so fancy? If Fang Qingyun was not worried about spilling, he would use dinner plates to store these processed foods.
“Why isn’t there one of those packagings… you know, the ones with mouth-watering photos of fish to stimulate appetite or something like that?” The boss felt like the rookie he was before, asking questions that he had no easy answers to.
"Because printing is very expensive, we need to allocate a small factory to do this kind of thing," explained the tomato bartender. He referred to the small hell factory as a small factory to prevent the flat-headed penguin from asking what the hell factory is. "Although the production capacity of hell is expanding, the production capacity is still very important. 'Only by being simple where it should be simple can we be fancy where it should be fancy'. This is what our big boss said."
"Who is your boss?" The boss seemed to have some guesses.
"The direct bosses are Ximi and Ju'er, one is blue and the other is green. We all call them the boss ladies. As for the big boss... Although I am learning Tongliao grammar, I am still a little bit stumbling when introducing myself. You just need to know that I am the benefactor of all plants." The tomato bartender yawned to the side and flicked on the boss's can.
A crack appeared on the top of the can like a ripe watermelon, and then in front of the stunned boss, the entire upper part of the iron sheet opened up like a flower, and the iron sheet automatically rolled up layer by layer to prevent hurting the neck of anyone who came over to eat.
The can contains catfish that has not had its scales or teeth removed. Its unique fresh flavor makes the boss's mouth water. Although this thing does look a bit scary, its taste is indeed very attractive and it is definitely the best among fish.
"Boss, how do we open this thing?" Koloski, who had been watching from the side and seemed to understand something, tried his best to open the can but couldn't. There were no zippers or pull rings on it. It just looked like an angular iron can. Rui Ge, who was standing next to him, was so anxious that he almost pulled out a grenade. He actually spit out a grenade and prepared to blast open the can.
Because Rui Ge was jumping up and down in a hurry, he knocked one of the three ice cream balls of the rookie off. Then Rui Ge realized that he had done something wrong and made an "Ah Ou" sound. Then he embarrassedly bared his beak at the tomato bartender and asked for another ice cream for the rookie.
"To put it simply, it just requires a bit of simple hellish magic." The tomato bartender stretched out a finger... or rather, it was a finger-shaped polymer formed by his vines. There was a faint orange-red light at the tip of his finger. He pointed it at the cans of Kolosky and Rigo, and the cans automatically opened like blooming morning glories, making it easy to eat.
"How much?" The boss asked while eating the blackfish. He now understood the enjoyment that Dr. Blowhole felt when he ate the live blackfish in the mecha. Even if it was unprocessed blackfish in a can, the freshness and just the right amount of saltiness made the penguins spin wildly like starving ghosts, especially Brother Rui, who even started to eat while holding the can.
"It's free. As long as you don't waste food, everything here is free." The tomato bartender yawned and said, "Anyway, when you have some free time, you will find that it is better to find something to do."
"Who would be looking for something to do when they have nothing to do?" The boss and Koloski looked at each other and shrugged.
Chapter 409: Each Has His Own Agenda
At this time on the **s star, only Fang Qingyun and his group were confronting Buster. It would not be accurate to say that they were confronting each other, because Buster was already scared to death at this moment. The guards following him were also trembling in front of Fang Qingyun, fearing that Fang Qingyun would wave his hand and an invisible big mouth would cover them and eat them directly. Carl's end was still vivid in his mind, and even the broken leg was warm.
"Now that the deal is done, it's time for me to pay my fee?" Fang Qingyun turned around in front of Buster, showing him his defenseless back, then walked back to the chair step by step, hugged Thorn on it in his arms, and leaned back in the chair with his legs crossed in a cynical sitting posture. Thorn lay on Fang Qingyun's thigh like a well-behaved cat and let him stroke him.
To be honest, this action was really thought up by Fang Qingyun on the spot. He just remembered a famous scene from an old movie, The Godfather, so he decided to replicate it. Unexpectedly, Thorn also cooperated under the temptation of fried foods such as potato chips... This gave Buster an extremely great shock and fear.
The composition in Buster's eyes now was this: Fang Qingyun was sitting on the recliner, holding Jing Ji in his arms, with one hand covering Jing Ji's head, and Jing Ji squinted his eyes in comfort, the sun slanted on Fang Qingyun's shoulders, making his face half sunny and half shady, which made him look uncertain. You know, his coldness in killing people just now frightened Buster, but now this look in the shadow still had the innocent stupidity of a college student... This contrast made Buster even more scared.
The people standing behind Fang Qingyun were even more heavyweight. Not to mention the humanoid Shura Kikuchiyo who had just cut off countless guns with a flash of his sword, Ximi next to him with blue flames in his hands and eyes looked like the god of death who had walked out of an unjust prison, and Ju'er next to him, with green sparks coming out of his breath, looked like a dragon from a DND role-playing book. Against the backdrop of these "evil forces", Dr. Kong, who was driving a mecha, looked kind and benevolent.
"Next, all the tricky insects on the entire **s planet are temporarily under your control." Fang Qingyun's smiling face made Buster even more nervous. Buster was not an ordinary dwarf. Even after being frightened, he tried to analyze Fang Qingyun's psychological condition through micro-expression analysis, but the conclusion he came to made him even more frightened.
Because from his micro-expressions, it was analyzed that Fang Qingyun was as simple and honest as a miner who had just joined the Deep Rock Galaxy Group. He was the kind of young man who dared to shout "For Deep Rock Galaxy" to rescue his teammates who had fallen behind while others were running for their lives.
Do you think this is possible? A demon who kills without blinking an eye, who has three demon kings under his command, and who can treat the master of cunning insects as a cat, and who has a fierce face and looks unpredictable, right? And you tell me that he is a good youth according to the psychological test, how can people believe it?
Now, in Buster's opinion, Fang Qingyun has become a person who is completely impossible to observe and evaluate. The huge gap between the performance and the evaluation makes Buster extremely frightened. The more sincere Fang Qingyun's expression seems, the more solemn Buster becomes. It seems that the person standing in front of him is not a young man who poses no threat, but a ferocious beast hiding in the darkness, ready to devour people, and is pretending to be harmless, waiting for him to reveal a flaw.
Buster wiped the cold sweat from his head. The urine that he had lost control of due to fear dripped down his trouser legs. If it were the old him, he would definitely yell at the people around him, asking them to quickly bring a pair of clean trousers, and even use their wages as a bargaining chip to let them keep these things to themselves. But in front of Fang Qingyun, he even felt that he could not even speak. He choked for a long time and could not make a sound, fearing that the huge orange-red mouth would descend on him in the next second. He still had too much money to squander and too much fine wine to taste. He did not want to leave the world so early.
"...Are you listening to me?" Fang Qingyun's voice was like a whisper from the underworld, which instantly pulled Buster out of his thoughts. Buster, realizing that he had not reacted for too long, suddenly broke out in a sweat. His back was burning and his heart was cold, which was the best description of him.
On the other side, Fang Qingyun was wondering in his heart after posing for a long time. He didn't know if he had scared Buster, because he was not good at negotiation. What's more, he now had to do another thing he was not good at: go back on his word.
To put it bluntly, he has become accustomed to cooperating with others for mutual benefit. He has had experience of cooperating with others for mutual benefit both in his past life and now. When he played COC in his previous life, there was a situation where everyone cooperated in a secret group to fight against KP's monsters. Not to mention now. A considerable part of the sources of those machines in hell were taken from the world of "Zombie Army 4", but this time is different. Fang Qingyun really can't trust this Buster.
Buster is a typical capitalist, the kind of person who would sell the rope to hang himself for a 500% profit. In the beginning of the transaction between Carl and Buster, Buster was obviously able to get the lion's share of the profits, but he was still not happy about it and put forward all kinds of conditions that could be described as extortion. After finally reaching a cooperation, he saw the deeper benefits and planned to kick Carl away without hesitation. So when he sees greater benefits later, will he plan to kick Fang Qingyun away as well?
You have to know that Fang Qingyun is holding a mountain of gold now. Although he has scared Buster with the threat of force and some small tricks, this is only temporary. It is difficult to expect Buster to always face up to the gap between Fang Qingyun and him. He will turn against Fang Qingyun in the face of 500% benefits, so who knows what he will do in the face of the temptation of a mountain of gold.
Of course, this does not mean that Fang Qingyun is afraid of Buster, but that it is unrealistic to cooperate with Buster under such circumstances. It is foreseeable that Buster will definitely cause some trouble, and Fang Qingyun will not be able to cooperate with Buster sincerely. Even if Buster cannot cause any danger to Fang Qingyun, the actual result is that Fang Qingyun is destined not to reap the benefits of the cooperation, and there is even the risk of being counterattacked by Buster.
Would Fang Qingyun still maintain the partnership under such circumstances? He was indeed a stubborn person, but that didn't mean he was a fool. Facing this gold-plated time bomb that could explode at any time, Fang Qingyun had to do something simple, which was to get all the value from it within a safe time and then run away.
Buster, just go ahead and try your luck. I won't serve you anymore.
So what Fang Qingyun said about Diao Chong fully cooperating and that you will be in charge of Buster in the future were all nonsense. He only intended to intimidate Buster for a while and run away after getting what he wanted. What he wanted was also the result of Fang Qingyun's careful consideration.
Needless to say, there were error cubes. What if a ship girl appeared in one of the cubes? If Fang Qingyun ran away early, these girls would never see the light of day again.
The remaining two things are very interesting. One is dwarves with real skills and talents, the number is 30 to . This is mainly to increase the senior talents and important designers of Hell. Although zombie teams were sent out before, only a little over dwarf engineers were brought back after being resurrected. This is when some teams brought back three or four. The overall survival rate of the zombie teams is less than %.
Together with the dwarves from the engineering department, Fang Qingyun now has about 240 highly qualified talents. Although they are just engineers, what Hell lacks most right now is engineers, especially designers. These engineers are usually responsible for repairing firearms and inspecting airborne capsules. Naturally, their knowledge of firearms is better than that of some half-baked military fans (Fang Qingyun: That’s right, I’m scolding myself). On the other hand, they can develop laser cutting machines... It shouldn’t be a problem to further turn the weapons into laser guns, right?
However, there are not enough people to make laser guns now, Fang Qingyun needs more intellectuals to contribute to his ambitious plan. After all, hell has no shortage of labor, and various production capacities are also developing at a high speed. The only thing missing now is the intellectuals who are responsible for stepping on the accelerator.
The last requirement was the choice Fang Qingyun made after careful consideration. The Omeran Heartstone was the only resource on the planet **s that the bugs could not get, because it was installed in a rock layer four to five meters thick and required a Dorela drill to drill it open. Its gold content was even more than ten times that of gold.
More importantly, the Omeran Heartstone may have a primitive self-defense instinct. When attacked by the drill cart, they will pull the surrounding rocks to attack the mine cart. When the protective layer is about to break, they will even give birth to some crystal towers around. These crystal towers will emit deadly high-energy lasers that can quickly melt Dorela's armor plates and scorch the dwarves. Perhaps the Omeran Heartstone is also related to these lasers. If something is researched from them, Hell will be able to completely get rid of live ammunition weapons.
After all, although Hell has a lot of minerals, the army in the later stage will only be more. Now more than 10,000 people can still be supported, so if they want to fight a war of annihilation, can they still support 3 million elites? If it is a more bloody battlefield of filling trenches, blood for blood and life for life, the resources needed in that day may be enough to squander all the previous savings of Hell.
Even if peace is maintained, the resources needed to expand buildings and the minerals needed to maintain the combat effectiveness of the army are astronomical. If the expenses on ammunition can be saved, it will undoubtedly be a timely help. Anyway, the energy is supported by the holy artifacts. If it doesn't work, we can just go back and get a few more treasures for energy.
Summary so far
In general, the performance of this book can basically be described as terrible. For the sake of food, this book that cannot be put on the shelves will be temporarily suspended. Some of the plots, easter eggs, and original outlines in it will be used in other books to come... In fact, if this book can be put on the shelves, I will not choose to stop updating, but at least the current 136w words have been shown to you. Although there are many self-congratulatory parts and many hair-losing parts, I am still very happy.
Regarding the reasons for the failure of this book, I personally summarized the reasons and now list them one by one.
1. First of all, the title of this book does not attract readers who read the "beautiful girls" but readers who read the "cards". This puts the whole book in a dilemma of secondary screening. The readers originally attracted will be rejected by the cards, and then excluded again because of the "low proportion of cards". This result is normal.
2. Since you are going to write a secondary creation, this kind of book must throw in a very famous female character at the beginning to attract people... I threw in my own character Viola at the beginning, but there were not enough explosive points in the middle, and it started high and ended low. The relationship was not established from beginning to end (actually, it was planned to be established. After the world of Deep Rock Galaxy ended, the new Belfast would give Fang Qingyun the enlightenment mushroom, but on the first night, five people slept in the big bed...including Viola and Kikuchiyo). This aspect must be changed. It is best to establish the relationship in the first chapters to avoid nagging).
3. The writing style of this book can only be described as terrible. When sending new chapters, I often encounter parts that need to be temporarily modified. The use of a large number of words is not satisfactory, which is very fatal.
4. Regarding this book, some of the prepared worlds and outlines will be used in the new book. The character of the protagonist in the new book will also be changed so that his actions satisfy a normal character arc, instead of suddenly changing something and making it seem as if everything was "learned in Hawaii" (laughs).
5. Let me tell you something interesting. You all know that I can design cards, right? I combined Darkest Dungeon and Azure Archives to design some cards, and by accident, they collided with the "Titan Cards" that Hearthstone released later... Very interesting, isn't it? I may post these card designs later for you to see and laugh.
6. It’s a pity that the card design is quite good, after all, I have even compiled the types of decks that my opponents will use… So I plan to do something big: the next book will be used to describe the characters’ personalities and show their charm, and the book after that will be similar to a card game (this is to be determined)… Just use it to make up for the mistakes of this book and reflect on myself at the same time.
The first chapter of the new book may be published in the first week of August. If I can’t sign a contract by the end of this year (even for the lowest offer), I will probably have to work as a builder... Let’s just give it a last try.
