"The village leader, the big leader!"
At this time, a voice sounded from a distance.
It was because the people in the village were a little worried after seeing the two of them not returning for so long, so they sent a team of more than a dozen people out to search.
The Eagle Man on the opposite side, after shouting to no avail, finally left the cliff area with the body of the purple winged bear and the loot that was revealed.
As for the corpse of his companion, it was lifted and thrown directly off the cliff.
Perhaps, this is the funeral culture of this foreign race.
But it undoubtedly further illustrates the other party's disregard for life!
"This is a very dangerous 'neighbor'!"
Ji Ye and Lu Zhishen both held this view.
In particular, the "Soul of Civilization" can only be obtained by killing such intelligent alien creatures.
It is conceivable that it is absolutely impossible for both parties to live in harmony.
Speaking of which, the soul of civilization exploded by the Yingren disappeared in the air after being condensed, and then appeared in the hands of Lu Zhishen on the cliff. In theory, as long as he obtains another one with the attribute of "sacrifice" Items can increase the "population" of the village by one person.
This also means that in this place of inheritance, fighting to support war may make you stronger more quickly than farming and advancing technology.
"Stay here, pay attention to the other side of the cliff, and go up the mountain to report if you find something wrong. Don't fight with him."
Ji Ye and Lu Zhishen didn't leave until dark, but they arranged for a few people to wait here and observe what was happening on the other side at any time.
However, for the next whole day, there was nothing unusual about the hawk man on the opposite side, nor did he think of a way to cross the cliff to avenge his dead companion.
Perhaps, in their minds, it is normal for one or two companions to die.
It is also possible that they want to clean up the hidden dangers around their stronghold first and gather resources before considering expanding to the surrounding areas.
Yes, resources!
After taking some people from Erlong Village and moving most of the items in the cave out of the village, Ji Ye and Lu Zhishen climbed to the top of the mountain and checked the Black Snake's residence.
It turned out that the pool of water that automatically emerged from the top of the mountain was mentioned in the description as the "cold pool" of the first stage of transformation.
The stones in the cold pool actually have properties and are "cold iron ore", which is very suitable for making weapons!
This gave Ji Ye a guess.
It is very likely that there will be things similar to "Red Fruit and Cold Pond" where some high-level monsters are located around the stronghold, which may be equivalent to some initial resources in the game.
As for the Eagle Man on the other side of the cliff, the purpose of killing the Winged Bear was not only hunting, but also because he was preparing to seize these resource points!
The sense of urgency of the situation made Ji Ye and Lu Zhishen make a similar decision. They took some people separately the next morning to explore the Erlong Mountain where there might be powerful metamorphosis-level monsters around them.
However, Ji Ye did not go out in the afternoon of the next day.
Because this is the time when the stronghold task time limit expires, and it is also very likely the time when the second batch of quotas will be announced.
Therefore, Ji Ye stayed in the village and even arranged for the aborigines to be ready to "receive" them.
However, what surprised Ji Ye was that there was no response until late at night.
Then, when there was still no new information after another day, Ji Ye, who had met the landing time requirement, chose to log off and return to Earth.
…
"Comrade Ji Ye, your information is very important to us. I have been asked to express my gratitude to you."
This was a conversation held in the most confidential conference room in the Yangcheng player base half an hour after Ji Ye went offline.
Ji Ye killed a foreigner in the inheritance land.
This is the first time in the entire Dragon Kingdom, and may even be the first time in the entire human race!
For the Dragon Kingdom United Affairs Bureau, it can obtain a large amount of useful information from it.
For example, after killing a foreign race, you can actually get "merits", which made the people participating in the meeting look thoughtful. And the fact that the "Soul of Civilization" turned out to be dropped by a foreign race inevitably made the two sociology experts look serious. Additionally, there are speculations about resource points…
Ji Ye didn't hide anything. In fact, speaking out this information would have the greatest impact.
"Xiao Ji, do you need to consider moving out of the dormitory building and we will arrange a new place for you."
This time, Director Zhou didn't even mention the cash reward.
Just because the information was too important, he didn't even have the power to make reward decisions.
After the meeting, he even called Ling Chen and asked him to escort Ji Ye back to the players' dormitory.
"Oh, why do I feel like every time you log off, I immediately get busy and never have a moment of leisure?"
As the two of them walked out of the passage of the office building together, Ling Chen sighed with a joking tone in his mouth.
Because all the players in Yangcheng have gathered in the base, he, the operations leader, is relatively relaxed most of the time.
However, every time Ji Ye went offline, he had to suffer a lot.
What Ling Chen didn't even know was the importance of the information Ji Ye provided this time.
Director Zhou even considered asking him, the leader of the operations team, to change his position to a newly built high-security player dormitory to serve as someone's liaison!
"If you are selected into the Land of Heritage in the next round, you won't need to be busy every once in a while... because you will always be busy."
Ji Ye smiled and said.
This sentence really cannot be said to be a joke.
Not to mention anything else, just using experience to deduce what he needed to do was ten times busier than Ling Chen.
And now, facing the pressure from the alien race so close at hand, they dare not relax at all.
“Is there really going to be a next round?”
"There are no new tips so far. On the forum, some experts believe that maybe our initial view was wrong, and there may not be a second batch of people at all!"
Ling Chen frowned and said hesitantly.
"There must be, otherwise the description of the stronghold mission would not be like that. It's just that we subjectively believe that the next batch of stronghold missions will be announced immediately when the time is up. Perhaps we have made a habitual thinking error belonging to 'human beings'!"
Ji Ye shook his head and said with certainty.
"Maybe. In fact, for the second batch of places, what we are most concerned about right now is the criteria. If the selection criteria are still the same as the first batch... I guess we will be in a lot of trouble!"
Ling Chen gave a bitter smile and said as he walked.
In fact, this issue is what the senior officials of the Joint Affairs Bureau are most worried about now.
If there continues to be an obvious professional elite standard or age limit like the first batch of people, then for some people who cannot be selected, big things that are difficult to control are likely to happen!
In fact, for the whole day yesterday, the people in the action team were on standby and didn't even sleep.
"From a rational point of view, letting the elites go in first to develop the stronghold is indeed the most beneficial choice for us humans!"
Ji Ye said from a personal perspective.
Not to mention the other undiscovered alien races, at least the average level of the "Eagle Men" is much higher than that of humans. The only thing they can rely on to win against the opponent is probably "elite tactics"!
However, he also understood that Ling Chen was telling the truth.
The elites have been transferred to the land of inheritance, so how to maintain order in reality
Especially among these elites, many of them occupy important functional positions in human society. The last time a million people were elected, it actually caused quite a bit of chaos.
In this second round, if the number of people is even larger, it may really cause chaos.
"Wow!"
While the two were walking around and talking.
Suddenly, there was a sound of objects being thrown in the next room.
"I said, I just have severe psychological trauma. If you can't check it out yourself, why should you give me a certificate of normalcy?"
"You mentally ill people can prescribe it to rich people without any problem. I really have a mental problem now, but you gave me a proof that I am normal!"
Immediately afterwards, an angry voice came out.
"Snapped!"
A women's activated charcoal water cup with a cartoon pattern was thrown out of it, almost hitting two people passing by.
