My Post-Apocalyptic Shelter Levels Up Infinitely! - Chapter 1481

[1472. Chapter 1449: Determine the route and walk the boulder’s own way!]

The mercenaries on the black market are all drunkards.

Grizzly Bear can drink a lot, so he naturally has a lot of drinking buddies.

Some of them are reliable and some are not. As long as you find the right person, it will be easy to get the job done.

So, after some thought, he went to Victor.

维克托是鹰角黑市内真正的‘大人物’，曾经是一支雇佣兵小队的队长，手下最多时候有七十多人，晚上甚至能包下来一整座酒馆庆祝。

However, it was only a glorious past.

Just over a month ago, Victor’s team suffered heavy casualties in a conflict with other forces.

Now there are only a dozen people left in his team, and all of them are slightly injured.

It would be difficult to restore the former glory given the half-dead state of the Eagle Point black market.

So based on the price of ten Eagle Horns per person, Grizzli estimated that Victor would most likely agree to it, and he would happily make the difference.

“Two hundred people are not twenty, Grizzly Bear. You have a really big appetite.”

Victor was drunk and didn’t believe what the drunkard said.

Since the establishment of the Eagle Point Black Market, there have been only a handful of missions that require two hundred people.

Even if the reward per person is twenty Eagle Horns at the market price, it can empty a medium-sized force.

However, when a contract with the black market seal was placed on the table, the bright words on it gave Victor a sudden shock.

“Fuck, are you serious?”

“There’s no need for me to lie to you. This is a big order that I risked my life to get. I won’t go into detail about the process. Anyway, this is a rare opportunity.”

Grizz lowered his voice and quickly repeated his employer’s request.

He didn’t hold back on any details.

Victor has been in a lot of trouble recently, so he must have paid close attention to the details of the mission.

If there really were problems with the job that he hadn’t discovered, Victor, with his experience, would definitely be able to spot the problem, and this would help him avoid a life-threatening commission.

“Participating in the territory war, all you have to do is run away after the battle begins. It seems that the employer has a big appetite.”

After listening to this, Victor tapped his fingers on the table and thought carefully.

Territory wars are not conflicts between forces, and they can still shake hands and make peace after fighting.

Once it is opened, only one of the two parties can survive.

Put yourself in their shoes.

If he were the employer and wanted to win the battle, letting the mercenaries switch sides would obviously increase his chances of winning.

But the other party did not do so, obviously he was very confident in his own strength.

No, their goal might not be simply to win.

Victor thought a lot in an instant, and finally his eyes stopped on the contract.

No matter what the other party’s purpose is, it is not what he should think about now.

He is very short of money.

There is a lack of funds to make a comeback and revive, and there is also a lack of funds to support brothers and carry on the past.

“Who is the employer?”

“According to the rules, I absolutely cannot tell you before you sign the contract.”

Grizz hesitated, “But I trust your character. Your employer is the Stone Territory.”

“The Boulder Territory?”

A somewhat unfamiliar territory name.

Victor did not rush to agree, but opened the game panel and sent a message to his deputy.

More than ten minutes later, the deputy replied with a detailed message of several hundred words.

Victor frowned and read through the pages carefully, line by line.

“Interesting.”

A small territory with 3,000 people can actually afford this price to place a commission on the black market.

It seems that the pharmaceutical business should be very profitable, which is why the surrounding territories are jealous and want to start a territorial war.

The location of this huge stone territory is also very interesting. It is actually built on a series of stone mountains?
How afraid of death must one be to build a territory in such a location?

This deal can be done.

Victor’s heart moved slightly. After experiencing a life-and-death disaster, his thoughts had already changed.

If you continue to live here with your head down and lick blood from the knife, maybe one day you will be left dead in the wilderness.

But if we can take advantage of this opportunity and seize the territory outside, perhaps we can get a chance to be free.

“Two hundred people, with my previous reputation, it shouldn’t be difficult to gather them in the black market, and there won’t be any exposure issues in the process.”

“But it costs extra.”

“What?” Grizzly immediately raised his hand to pull the contract back, shaking his head reluctantly.

“For this job, I only earn two Eagle Points per head.”

“Really?” Victor burped.

“I don’t care how much you take, but if something happens to the person I’m looking for, I’ll have to pay a pension, so thirteen coins per person. If you want less than that, you can find someone else.”

“Thirteen coins.”

Grizzly pondered for a moment. He could still earn seven coins for such a kill.

One thousand four hundred coins, which was more than enough for him to finish this job and live a good life somewhere else.

“Okay, I’ll take the loss, let’s go to the notary office to sign the contract!”

The sun is rising.

The Boulder Territory, which has been visited by the Tesla Territory, is obviously more vibrant than before.

Even today, no one has coveted the so-called contribution points that can be accumulated by helping the territory, and has made up their minds to live a good life in the Boulder Territory.

But it is always good to be included in the support list, which can prove that their previous vision was correct!
The first platform.

In the newly built public cafeteria in the territory.

Su Mo was eating pickles and drinking millet porridge while listening to the stupid comments in the world channel.

Old Zhang strode in from the side door, his face filled with unconcealable joy.

“All plans are arranged.”

“Well, well done.” Su Mo raised his head and cast a look of praise.

But then again, this is the first time for Lao Zhang and Luo You to participate in such a large-scale military operation, so their current performance is completely worthy of recognition.

“After this war, more and more people will join the territory.”

“Haha, aren’t we waiting for this day?” Lao Zhang rubbed his hands excitedly and exhaled. “Boss Ji, Lao Luo and I have talked about it. When the time comes, all the newcomers will be assigned to the ground village and the human village, which will be a good opportunity to build two villages at the same time.”

“.” Su Mo frowned, put down his chopsticks and looked at Lao Zhang.

The bald man in front of him seemed no different from when he first met him two months ago, still as rough as ever.

But in the big man’s eyes, Su Mo saw a hint of ambition.

The atmosphere suddenly became heavy, and Lao Zhang was frightened and at a loss as to what to do.

“Have you read the plan I gave you yesterday?”

“I’ve taken a look!” Lao Zhang nodded immediately.

“I have carefully considered all the plans to continue to build Tianzhai, various public facilities, hospitals, schools, canteens, and factories. This is the result of my thinking.”

As he spoke, he took out a small notebook from his arms, which was densely filled with his thoughts.

Su Mo took it and flipped through it for a while, and his frown finally relaxed a little.

He helped the Giant Stone Territory to expand continuously in order to gain more survival points.

But the idea that Lao Zhang just expressed was that he wanted to be the king here.

What’s the use even if the Stone Territory has a million people?

If he can’t get any survival points from these people, further development will only deviate further and further from Su Mo’s original intention.

“Well, let’s go out and talk.” Su Mo handed the notebook back, drank the porridge in the bowl in one gulp, picked up the plate and put it in the food collection area at the exit, and walked out of the cafeteria side by side with Lao Zhang.

Following the mountain road through the village, the two men came to the village where a large-scale construction was underway and found an open space to stand.

“Every day when I come here, there are new changes,” he said.

“The workers have adopted your frame spraying method, and the construction speed has been getting faster and faster recently.” Lao Zhang nodded. From Su Mo’s attitude change just now, he judged that his ideas had deviated from the original intention of territory construction.

However, to develop the Giant Stone Territory, shouldn’t we build more and more villages and gather more people?
“I never told you why we wanted to build the Giant Stone Territory. At that time, I thought you wouldn’t understand even if I told you. Now I think it’s time.” Su Mo sighed.

From Lao Zhang’s eyes, he could tell that the other party was just afraid of him, and did not think he had done anything wrong.

“Let me ask you, the people in Tianzhai now… Forget it, let’s just talk about the Niu brothers. Why are they willing to come to our Jushi territory?”

“Well,” Lao Zhang hesitated, “Because compared to the surrounding territories, we in Jushi are willing to treat them as real people, and are willing to give them all the same treatment.”

“What if there are a million people in the Stone Territory? Can you still give them the same treatment?”

Su Mo said calmly, “Have you ever asked the old residents what kind of life they want? Have you ever paid attention to their expectations after coming to the Stone Territory? Do you think they expect hundreds of thousands of people to join and share the only resources in the territory, or do they just want to maintain the current steady development and become a small territory that does not compete with the world?”

“Boss Ji” Lao Zhang was a little stunned.

“In fact, from the very beginning when I built the Monolith Territory, I just wanted to let the survivors see that there is another way to live in this wasteland world. It is not the right answer to rush into these super territories mindlessly.”

“I never expected to get to this point, it was all due to coincidences.”

“But from the beginning to the end, my goal was not to develop a second golden giant eagle next to the golden giant eagle. The boulder is a boulder and needs to go its own way.”

Old Zhang was silent.

The Stone Territory has been expanding too fast in recent times and has indeed deviated from its original development track.

Now, after Su Mo’s reminder, he suddenly realized that the boulder was taking exactly the same path as other territories of all sizes in the New World.

Development, expansion, infrastructure.

More population, larger territory, and more stringent screening conditions.

This is a development path to achieve a super territory, but it is also a path that is completely contrary to the original intention.

“So, we should develop small and beautiful?” asked Lao Zhang.

“Not really, it’s just that when expanding, more attention should be paid to the supporting construction.”

This is the principle that Su Mo has always emphasized since the beginning of the Tianyuan Territory.

Otherwise, with his influence, he could easily call on over 100 million survivors to come from far and wide to join.

But what’s the point?
Tianyuan Territory simply doesn’t have enough capacity to accommodate so many people, and it will only lead to a disaster in the end.

This is also true for the current Golden Eagle. It is precisely because it does not realize this that it has been expanding and gathering population indefinitely, resulting in constant conflicts of interest between federal territories.

Perhaps a fuse will be triggered and the war will start immediately!
“I see, this is why you asked me to defeat the enemy, not to defeat them, right?”

“Yes, the benefits gained from defeating them are far less than the resources invested in cleaning up their messes.”

Su Mo chuckled and said that this matter should be left to the golden giant eagle to solve.

Now that they are on the assistance list, those federal territories must be taken over no matter what.

After explaining all this to Lao Zhang, Su Mo was not idle either. He took some time to stroll down the mountain and slightly adjusted the deployment of the guard team.

Even if you haven’t eaten pork, you have seen pigs run.

It might be a little difficult for him to command a large-scale battle involving hundreds of thousands of people, but it is really easy for him to command a battle involving two or three hundred people.

Even with his eyes closed, Su Mo could imagine where the enemy would come out from and what actions they would take.

If we predict and plan for this, we can easily repel the attack.

Perhaps they don’t even need to take action. Considering the combat capabilities of these territories, the rout of the mercenaries will be enough to give them a hard time.

“After this matter is over and we become a support territory and connect with Tesla’s territory, I shouldn’t have to worry about the development of Jushi anymore.”

Su Mo had a blank expression on his face. After thinking about the way to the Boulder Territory, his thoughts turned back to the first battle of Wanjing five months later.

His mind was actually quite confused and he had no idea what was going on.

The alien race now knows that this is the final decisive battle, but has yet to respond.

This behavior reminded him of the last time these guys did the same thing, for more than half a year without any warning, and suddenly they pulled him directly into the asynchronous space.

Are the aliens planning to do the same this time?

Without sufficient information, Su Mo was unable to make any analysis or judgment.

But reason told him that if he allowed the aliens to continue their plans so comfortably, the result would definitely be out of control again.

“I have to go to Connie next month.” Su Mo made up his mind. It also took time to collect information from Connie.

But the plan obviously could not keep up with the changes, just as he was about to return to the village for his second meeting with Musk.

The game interface that I had been immersed in for more than a month suddenly popped up.

Buzz.

The main interface trembled and automatically jumped to the disaster interface related to the death tide.

[Record]: It is detected that the current environment has met the upgrade conditions for the ultimate disaster “Death Tide”, and the disaster is being upgraded.
[Record]: The ultimate disaster “Death Tide” is being upgraded.
[Record]: The upgrade is complete, the ultimate disaster “Death Tide” has officially entered the second stage, please be prepared, players.
