Chapter 255: Base Daily (Sappers)
As soon as the sky was getting up, Zach, the engineer, got up and washed up with everyone, and then lined up to get the mine pickaxe in turn.
It has been almost a month since he and his friends around him have begun to get used to the daily routine here.
When he was caught at first, he was still a little nervous. Everyone knew the consequences of being captured by orcs. Warriors were usually taken to the arena for fighting for people to watch, while engineers and peasants were usually taken to work as hard labor and died of exhaustion.
The fact was as he expected, these green-skinned orcs were indeed using them as coolies, but the situation was much better than they thought.
Not every day, as the bards said, were beaten by thorny whips, doing high-intensity labor, and eating shit-like things.
The labor time is very regular every day, four hours in the morning, four hours in the afternoon, and rest time at noon and evening. Moreover, the labor itself is not very intense, and the ore is carried according to one's own physical strength.
There are certain technical requirements for mining. The purely labor force of the mine is even much lower than that of their military camps.
The diet is much better than I imagined. At the beginning, it was a transparent liquid. Although it didn't taste much, it was not hungry all day after eating it. Later, I would make some strange food and fruits from some farms. The taste was extremely good. Not only did I have enough, but after eating it, I also felt full of strength, which was longer than eating meat.
If you put aside your slave status, it's actually pretty good
When it comes to eating, he envies the farmers who farm. Some people say that those farmers have their own houses in the farmland, and most of them can eat the agricultural products produced in the farmland every meal, which is much more popular than those who carry bricks.
Damn why didn’t I be born from farming?
Sometimes Zach even thinks this way because he hasn't eaten the melons sent from the farmland for three days. Sometimes when he passes by, he is particularly envious of those guys who are leisurely farming on the farmland.
But today's daily life has changed. They were being led by a man who looked like a human, and said that something new was assigned to them.
Everyone started to talk about this, and some even became a little panicked.
Especially the Huidan next to him, with a trembling expression, Zach was speechless for a while and asked curiously: "What's wrong with you?"
Huidan looked at the front and then whispered in a trembling voice: "What do you think we will be called to do?"
"How do I know this?" Zach rolled his eyes. Everything in this place was so novel. Gnolls were called to grazle, and they, trolls and orcs were called to move bricks. It is not surprising that he is called to do anything now.
He was actually looking forward to it. It would be better to change things in his mind than to keep mining and moving bricks.
"I heard that some orcs are very flirtatious and will let people go, and then chase after them and hunt them down and use prisoners as prey."
"No?" Zach was stunned for a moment when he heard this. He felt that this guy was a little alarmist. After getting along with each other these days, although the green-skinned orcs are a bit fierce, they are still quite kind-hearted.
"Why not? Do you really think they are a group of good people?" Huidan said hatefully.
this
Zach was silent for a moment. There was no good person, but he always felt that he was not a bad person, especially these days, he got used to getting along with the ogres and orcs who were transporting with them. He suddenly felt that these orcs were not very bad.
Ogres are actually a stupid big man. The tauren has a more irritable temper, but in fact they are very straightforward. Sometimes when he can't move, he calls those taurens, and they basically come to help without saying a word. This is not common among humans.
And their so-called masters are, although they are fierce, but they have never abused them. Sometimes they will move bricks and mine together.
"Hey, Zach!" Greydan immediately cursed in a low voice when he saw Zach's appearance: "Are you confused by those big green-skinned men's hypocrisy? You have to recognize that we are slaves. Do slaves understand? We have to unite and find a way to escape!"
"Escape?" Zach was stunned for a moment, and suddenly he was silent and did not reply.
"Don't you want to go back?" Huidan said in shock when she saw this.
Zach was speechless. To be honest, he really didn't want to be an engineer in the army. It was not a good job to enjoy the glory of victory. On the battlefield, the risks they faced were comparable to those of the soldiers, because the enemy often had the first goal to destroy the equipment in the rear. There were no more partners who came in with him for so many years.
The engineers are also very tired when they work. When they often need to work, they stay sleepless for several days. The intensity is very high. He doesn't know why Huidan is so keen on this kind of life that is in danger and has no hope.
What's wrong with this? The labor intensity is not high, and three meals are full. Although the accommodation is a dungeon, to be honest, the environment of this dungeon is much better than that of the military camp. It is neither cool nor hot, nor poisonous insects and lice. The most important thing is that there is no life danger. Don't worry about rushing out a team of wolf cavalry at any time to cut them off like cutting melons and vegetables.
So what's wrong with this?
Finally, amid Huidan's angry scolding, a group of people came to the grass outside with various moods.
Then a magical scene appeared
A light curtain flashed, and then an extremely beautiful city appeared on the originally empty grassland. All buildings were cast from a kind of crystal clear jade, combined with the wrapped living wood, decorated with flowers and vines, making every part of the picture full of incomparable exquisiteness.
Living trees stretched their waists, emitting a sweet atmosphere visible to the naked eye. Under the sunlight, it was like the city where the fairies lived in the mouths of the minstrels, and everyone was stunned.
"This is the city we will build in the future!" A developer player stood across from the crowd and explained: "From today, our mission is to complete the construction of this home together."
"Home? Us?" A group of people were stunned, one of them trembled, "Can we live here too?"
The developer player smiled and said, "This is our home. If you are willing to treat yourself as part of this place, then this will be your home!"—
All players please note: The current base starts the city lot contracting mission: Any player with more than ten engineers can apply for the contracting area.
