The morning breeze blew through the endless wheat fields. Underwood's "Baron of the Wasteland" of the Reno Kingdom stood on his simple castle and looked at the half-clothed serfs working hard in the wheat fields.
This is the picture he has dreamed of, and all his ideals in life have now come true.
But he is not happy.
Underwood was born in a declining former aristocratic family. His ancestors were once the "Nobles from the Dragon" who followed Count Reynold to found the country. They were granted the title of Viscount and were hereditary. The family emblem is a royal scepter wrapped with redbud flowers, which represents the eternal family.
Be a royal subject until the royal scepter is gone.
But now, the royal power of the Reno Kingdom is still stable, but the redbud flowers entwining it have long since withered and withered.
It is difficult to start a business, and it is even harder to maintain a business. In the years of power struggles, political maneuvering, and conspiracy calculations, the Viscount was deprived of his title, his territory was divided up by other nobles, and his family withered. Only his family was left to survive as a humble shoemaker.
From my grandfather to my father, I have long been accustomed to being a shoemaker. I deal with smelly and moldy leather every day. I humbly measure the toes of nobles and wealthy businessmen. I accumulate silver coins one after another. The greatest enjoyment every day is to listen to music.
The sound of these shiny little things clinking in the purse.
Marrying a wife and having children, and the son inheriting the father's inheritance... seems to be a natural thing, and the past glory of the family has long been forgotten.
But he is different.
Underwood has a restless heart and is not satisfied with his wealthy family, identity and profession as a shoemaker. After accidentally learning about the family's history, he is determined to restore the family's glory and lead the family to regain everything it has lost.
To be honest, apart from the language barrier, these space travelers are not difficult to get along with.
On the one hand, it is catering, on the other hand, it is special. The beauty of existence lies in its exquisite grasp of mysterious rules and mysterious narratives.
In short, they are a group of guys who have extremely practical interests above all. Putting aside the fact that they are outsiders, the attributes of an evil race, the blasphemy of death and the status of pagans, you will find that they are not difficult to deal with, as long as you can
Provide them with what they need.
Just then, the alarm bell rang.
The humanoid monster looks very weak. The old bitter wheat players in the farmland say how much they can buy per kilogram, and let the newcomers take the time to help the humanoid monster with "voluntary labor" and harvest as much as they can!
He was ready to go back, but the beautiful maid was still waiting on the bed.
They are greedy, but at the same time they can judge the situation and know how to advance or retreat.
During this day and night of marching, Huang Song had worked hard, but the newcomers were so excited by the big cakes described by the elders that they could not listen to anything. They fantasized about making big profits on the battlefield and saying goodbye to the days of eating welfare meals every day.
They are brave and at the same time extremely cowardly.
"yes."
"His attitude is very firm, and presumably he is also worried about paganism."
Under normal circumstances, a shoemaker's son would have no chance at all.
"The spacewalker over there?" Underwood stopped and his expression became cautious.
However, it took a little longer this time, because a team of players had already passed by in front, and the village could not afford much money to buy the road.
——It would be great if this territory were in my hometown.
This is the feeling of the natives. Because of this, Immersion does not provide any guidance on the players' IDs and gang names.
The newlyweds are naturally grateful and elated. Is there anything cheaper than this?
The old players eat meat and they drink soup, which is completely acceptable. After all, they haven't done anything.
This Sun Killer is the leader of the Little Knife Guild in the north, and his ID is the level 45 elf ranger of Hou Yi Shooting the Sun.
"Find a way to give the church a hint and have the patrolling angels come here to scare this cunning goblin."
"Boss, there are still many teams behind us. What if the humanoid monster can't afford the money to buy the way?" A newcomer asked in the excitement.
As a result, countless newbies who were waiting for food, their eyes turned red from the stimulation, and they joined various teams. They also took out their savings from their teeth to buy medicine, equipment, bigger backpacks, and supplies...
Make novice village
The market was prosperous, which made many vendors smile crookedly. They said that they had not seen such a scene for a long time. The current resistance forces have lost their courage. They should do this to the Eagle Group in order to live up to the ardor of the system.
Entrusted with this...
But I didn't expect that in order to retain people, they would actually engage in such a trick. The newcomers were not employed. The better ones were level 5, but the common ones were only level 3 or 4. It didn't matter what they wanted, so how could they go to the battlefield? This was not just giving food to others.
Fuck the system, auntie.
"Where are the patrolling angels?"
Huang Songzheng was puzzled when he saw several carriages being escorted out of the village, followed by a series of crying orcs, half-orcs and even wild elves...
The simple village wall was made of mud and wood, three to four meters high, and the humanoid monsters were hiding inside and shivering.
The human gods rise in suffering and despair, and the vigorous development of faith is like a revolution. The old and new forces fight in the abandoned wasteland, and finally lay the basic pattern of the order of future generations in one fell swoop.
It's very similar to the abandoned people now.
Huang Song remembered his shock when he first heard about going out to 'combat' a special plot mission. The mission of the Tianzhi Regiment was about to be completed. Most of the new players who had switched jobs were ready to go back with him to eat the trouble and leave early tomorrow morning. As a result, in the evening
The Eagle Group suddenly released this series of special combat plot missions?
His first feeling was that it was a delaying strategy. Everyone had already seen the plight of the Eagle Group. He couldn't eat with so many people, and he still had some indigestion.
New and old players burst into laughter, and in a joyful atmosphere, the team accepted materials, money and slaves and set off again.
"Hmph, Andre, it seems we need to do some proper exercise."
I heard that the reason why the abandoned wasteland has become a paradise for abandoned people, criminals, heretics, unbelievers and monsters is because this area was once a battlefield for the gods?
More than a hundred players showing off their power took up positions by the moat outside the city wall. Huang Song thought he was going to attack the city. Unexpectedly, ten minutes later, a humanoid monster came out tremblingly and danced with the veteran players (language barrier, system
Translation between different camps is not provided), the veteran player who leads the team is called to collect the team, to collect the team.
"This cunning goblin... tell him that the goods are gone this month and let him stay in the castle honestly, otherwise he will be careful about his life."
Underwood was stunned when he heard this. He thought he already knew the Skywalker very well, but he didn't expect that someone would take the initiative to break the tacit understanding.
"Can't you?" Huang Song was also moved. He was not interested in half-orc girls with tails. He thought they were similar to animals that walked upright. He was very dissatisfied. However, he was more interested in those wild elves.
It's pleasing to the eye and in line with his aesthetics.
As for things like airports, it's just a matter of fun, he doesn't like a figure that's too explosive.
"There are still 6 days of travel left."
Who can refuse such a task? Anyone who refuses is a fool.
But jihad changed everything.
Lord Baron said with a ferocious smile.
There is not much danger, and there are generous mission rewards, reputation, merit, money and equipment waiting for you.
If it weren't for the restraint of the old players, the newcomers would be doing "voluntary labor".
This is?
"Humph, little clever guy, this is the name I want, otherwise the church won't be able to explain it to me."
Due to translation, weird words and bold and blasphemous names and IDs have become standard for space travelers. The indigenous people were horrified and angry when they first heard the weirdness, but now they are used to it. Every time they hear it, there is something else.
The excitement, even if some names are ordinary, even weird, despicable, and obscene, once they are connected with space-related people, they will become logical and a little unclear.
Nowadays, the blood of the Holy War has long cooled down. All fools know that the Skywalkers cannot be eliminated in a short time. Even the divine punishment descended by the gods and the next angel legion supporting from the Kingdom of God cannot eliminate the Skywalkers.
, not to mention others.
In ancient times, the gods were still walking on the earth, just like the kings and lords today. They attacked each other and had fun with war. At that time, humans were still an extremely cowardly race and did not have the extraordinary power to master their professions, like
Living like weeds.
At that time, humans, dwarves, and elves were still allies. After faith became popular, divine authority was infinitely elevated... Forget it, what are you thinking about all this?
Underwood thought to himself.
They are arrogant, but they can also bend down when needed and even kiss your toes.
"That elf? What does he want?"
Arriving at the second dilapidated village after nightfall, the same drama was staged again.
Isn’t this a money grab?
However, under the threat of the butcher's knife and the faint sounds of crying, the players set off again with satisfactory supplies and slaves.
"No news yet."
"The harvest will be ready in another month!"
"Sir, the skywalkers are coming to kill us."
A new player next to Huang Song had just satisfied his selfish desires, but his lust started to rise again. He pointed at a thin figure in the slave team held in front by an old player, and smiled obscenely: "I heard that there is a magic medicine that can make players
To revive the glory, the old players treat it as a treasure. They keep it secret to others and don’t know what it is. They are all mysterious. They usually pretend to be in front of us, but they are happy secretly. "
"It can be trade, with the amount of tax paid hidden in the difference."
Walking down the castle, the loyal and hard-working housekeeper, a nightwalker (thief) who was lame in one leg during the war, appeared silently and said, "Sir, there is news from the Skywalker."
Don't talk about them anymore. When we are really about to arrive at the target location, we will see farmland far beyond the player's territory, a completely different population from the depression of the player's territory, serfs composed of abandoned people, immigrants, and various intelligent races, hordes of
Working in the fields, everyone ran away when they saw them, just like the Japanese invaded the village...Huang Song also began to get excited.
baron!
"His territory can pay taxes to you, but not in the name of paying taxes."
As an outsider, in the process of localization, we should not blindly and unprincipledly respond, but should also retain a little bit of our own specialness. This specialness will not cause problems with fit, but will highlight and emphasize the players' role in the localization process.
Features in Mysterious Narratives.
"This is road money!"
In addition to being remote, the land in the abandoned wasteland is quite fertile. Unfortunately, such fertile land is indeed an abandoned land.
"Then go get it yourself!" the veteran player said with a stern attitude, "You can still work voluntarily when you come back!"
The system prompts that a small stage task enters the settlement state, and then makes a ding-dong sound, indicating how much reputation, how much contribution, and how many copper coins have been credited.
The Centaur invaded and the Holy War was launched. He struggled to persuade his father to sell off his property, used all his possessions to purchase horses and armor, recruited and trained a team of farmers, first fought against the Centaur invaders, and was awarded the title of knight for his merits.
Later, he fought against the aerialists, and until now, he was granted the title of Barony of Underwood in the province of Vidia, an enclave of the Kingdom of Renault in the abandoned wasteland.
In the wilderness, the teams starting from the Eagle Regiment were divided into dozens of teams. The old players of the Eagle Regiment were leading the team and acting as the main force. The new players worked together as assistants and received relevant tasks. Each team was composed of hundreds of people, and they were majestic.
, high-spirited, we walked dozens of kilometers for a day and a night, and finally arrived at a local dog's stronghold in the wilderness.
"What do you say about the territory of other space-dwellers?"
At this time, he had forgotten about the Heavenly Regiment and the secret mission, and was completely focused on ‘stealing money, land, equipment, and women (men)’.
He was thinking in his mind.
"yes!"
An old player explained with a smile, "This is an abandoned village, but it was occupied by local dogs. Let's stop here. There are other teams behind us anyway, hehe!"
It was morning when we entered the territory of humanoid monsters, and it was already noon when we arrived at the first village.
"Look, there's a cat girl!"
"The one in the north, the one who calls himself the Sun Slayer."
"No, we haven't taken office yet!"
"What name does he want to use?"
The faith of the nobles was worrying, and the theocracy and the church were inseparable from the order of secular rule. The two were interdependent, and tolerance of the faith of the nobles had become a tacit understanding.
It is a pity that this so-called province of Khidiya cannot live up to its name. Most of the territory on the map is occupied by skywalkers. His barony is the only land in the province under the rule of the kingdom. It is like a small island.
In the middle of a vast ocean of space dabblers.
"Long live the Eagles!"
them……
Unexpectedly, the old players of the Eagle Group were indeed convinced. After some propaganda and seduction by them, they somehow became "grabbing money, grabbing land, grabbing equipment, and grabbing women (men)". In their description,
The territory of the humanoid monsters is really full of gold, with experience and equipment waiting for them to steal everywhere. The money is piled up, and the newcomers only need to follow the old players and play the drums.
Only by becoming a noble can you know some of the truth about this world. Precisely because you know a lot of truth, you are not easily brainwashed by the high-sounding words of the church and its teachings...
But not long after leaving, I saw flames shooting into the sky behind me. It was obvious that the team behind did not receive the money to buy the way, so they went to get it themselves.
This kind of armed march lasted until late at night, and there was almost no resistance from the humanoid monsters. Wherever they went, they lost money and avoided disasters.
"Be mentally prepared, we are going to see Zhenzhang tomorrow."
After setting up camp, the veteran player who led the team vaccinated the newcomers, "Those are the real native dogs, they are fierce."
