"I'm just a weak first-level rookie now. I only have some useless snacks like grass on the wall. I can survive until now by relying on fate and secret calculations. You just give me gold and silver, can I take it away?
"
In the bleak wind, Zhou Qingfeng had an upright face and treated money like dirt. Fei Zhe and others admired him greatly and were fooled for the time being.
In fact, Uncle Zhou has a clear mind. He was not well-known before, and no one would make things difficult for him if he did something. But now, in order to survive, everyone has to fight with real swords and guns, and no longer wants to hide.
Playing dirty tricks in the dark...
Not to mention that this is not a good style, it is also very easy to poison yourself to death.
Conspiracies are just heresy, while conspiracy is grand and majestic.
Fei Zhe and others evolved in a poor environment like the Black Forest and became like human spirits, with ulterior motives and ruthlessness. They just couldn't figure out Zhou Qingfeng's background and origins, so they were temporarily blinded.
When they find out that Zhou Qingfeng only has "three axes", who knows what they will do? Repaying gratitude is a joke, and adding insult to injury is almost inevitable.
Full of calculations and conjectures, the group entered the Iron Ore Valley. Feizhe sent people to contact several other human settlements that had not yet surrendered, taking interests as the guide and uniting all the forces that could be united.
There are only more than 2,000 humans in the entire Black Forest. If you remove one-third of the people who have taken refuge with the goblins, there are only more than 1,600 people left. Then remove the 300+ dung-making machines in the Voodoo Swamp and wait to die.
Drop more than half of the servants and handymen in each settlement...
There are only about four to five hundred human armed forces that can actually fight.
There are only such a small number of people, scattered in several settlements, fighting on their own, with many conflicts and dissatisfaction with each other.
If Uncle Zhou hadn't "bravely" stepped forward to integrate, it would have been easy for hundreds of thousands of goblins to seize the Black Forest. From now on, the Maglu tribe will laugh out of their dreams.
After entering the settlement, Zhou Qingfeng immediately put on a show. He asked for a clean room, two maids to serve him, a bath immediately, clean clothes, and good food and wine. Anyway, he could think of how a noble should live, and he asked for it.
How to make a request.
Iron Mine Valley was very poor, but Fei Zhe had to ask for help and had to do his best to meet Zhou Qingfeng's request. The house, hot water, food and clothing were all okay, but this maid was sincere...
"It's so ugly. Being served by such a maid will give you nightmares at night." Seeing the 'maid' that Fei Zhe carefully selected and sent, Zhou Qingfeng was on pins and needles, his eyelids were twitching, "Where is this maid? It's clearly a maid.
Yaksha!”
The men in this black forest are all rough, and the women can be called strong. Anyway, it is impossible to be very particular if you can live in a place like this.
'Shadow' sensed Zhou Qingfeng's 'ugly refusal' mentality and laughed in his mind, "Boy, are you still my believer? As long as you keep praising me every day, I can make you the chief priest.
, there are all the beautiful women you want."
"Don't you even know who you are? It's better to believe you than to believe a piece of shit." Zhou Qingfeng took a hot bath and relaxed. He stayed in his private room and stuffed a plate of barbecue into his stomach.
Much more comfortable.
In this apocalyptic world, being well fed, well clothed and well fed is the happiness that most people dream of.
Bang bang bang..., there was a knock on the door.
It was already dark, but the messengers sent out by Iron Ore Valley were very effective. The leaders of other settlements were also very decisive after learning the news. Zhou Qingfeng's wish to gather all the resistance forces came true.
Some settlements sent special envoys, and some settlements had leaders come personally. With the dual pressure of goblins and hunger, the humans in the Black Forest all hope to find a way to survive.
Fei Zhe came to invite him in person, and a newly dressed Zhou Qingfeng appeared in the meeting hall of the settlement. In the hall, there were brave people with thirty or forty blades licking blood waiting for him. All of them were naked and full of evil spirits.
.
When Zhou Qingfeng walked into the hall, everyone was surprised that the person who revealed the secret of the elf ruins was actually a young man. But as soon as the young man appeared, his eyes first focused on the slowly closing hall door and the dome in the hall.
The hall door is made of oak, thick and heavy, but the door shaft is very smooth and precise, with very little friction. You can still vaguely see exquisitely carved patterns on the door, depicting the lush black forest of the past and the life of the elves.
As for the dome, that's even more special.
The meeting hall of the White Crow Camp doubles as a tavern. It is not large when you walk in, and the layout is rough. But the meeting hall of the Iron Ore Valley is very spacious, with enough room for several thick wooden round tables inside. The four corners of the pillars also divide the space.
into different functional areas.
"Everyone, have you been here before?" Faced with everyone's doubts, inquiries, and surprised looks, Zhou Qingfeng spoke first. He pointed to the dark dome, "Can anyone see the murals on the dome clearly?"
Everyone looked up and could only vaguely see a few dusty chandeliers hanging on the dome. However, they did have to admire the exquisite and majestic architectural structure here, which was incomparable to other settlements.
"Murals? I didn't see any murals." The old dwarf was also among the crowd watching Zhou Qingfeng. He was short, fat, and had no neck because of his spherical body. It was difficult to raise his head. He could only stand on tiptoes and move back and forth.
Turn your head.
"This is not a meeting hall at all. This is the craftsman's lounge of the Elf Forge." Zhou Qingfeng walked straight to the corner of the hall and stretched out his hand to touch the wall. "Not only are there exquisite murals, but there are also reliefs on the walls, showing all kinds of life.
facility."
The surrounding walls are covered with a thick layer of wooden boards, which are simple and rough.
"Someone do me a favor and tear this place apart." Zhou Qingfeng shouted.
"Sir Hugo, what do you want to do?" As a landowner, Fei Zhe asked urgently. He allowed Zhou Qingfeng to enter the settlement, but reluctantly invited representatives from other settlements and gathered everyone together. He already felt that
He was hit hard.
Now that Zhou Qingfeng actually wants to tear down the wall, he is simply turning against customers. Fei Zhe must stand up and stop it.
Just when this bearded man shouted, everyone present looked at him angrily. Everyone was furious when they heard the news, and hurried over just to know more secrets of the Iron Ore Valley.
Anyone who dares to stop him will be attacked by a group of people.
Zhou Qingfeng stood in the corner, turned around and said with a smile: "Don't be too nervous. I just felt that there was not enough light in the hall and wanted to light the chandelier on the dome. By the way, let everyone take a look at the murals left by the elves. Art is like those with pointed ears.
Guy’s lifelong pursuit.”
There were torches lit in the hall, but the light was really not very good.
The female Druidner took the initiative and shouted in a rough voice: "Sir Hugo, I'm here to help you remove those wooden boards, but let's see who dares to stop me?"
Druids are all straight-tempered and have very hot tempers. Na'er stood up and Fei Zhezhao had to back down due to the public anger. Zhou Qingfeng pointed to a wooden board in the corner. The big woman roared, stretched out her hand to buckle, and the thick birch wood
It instantly became shattered.
There was a big hole in the finger-thick wooden board, and other people in the hall gathered around to see what was going on. Zhou Qingfeng originally just wanted to remove a board, but when Naer took it apart, she found a stone wall behind the board.
So she continued to violently demolish them.
"Relief!" someone in the crowd exclaimed, "Damn Feizhe, he deliberately used these wooden boards to cover the relief on the stone wall behind. This place was indeed built by elves."
Fei Zhe cursed in frustration at this moment, but there was nothing he could do. The other adventurers were already excited and stepped forward to join in the demolition of the wall.
There was a loud crashing and clicking sound, and a beautifully carved wall that had been sealed for decades was revealed to humans again. Just looking at the style of the carvings, it was not human.
Flowers and ancient trees, clear springs and grasslands, beautiful elves and men and women shuttled through the woods under the moonlight. They were noble, elegant, smart, beautiful, and kind-hearted unicorns, enjoying the favor of the elves and gods.
The sculptures are extremely exquisite, showing the life of Silverleaf City in the Black Forest. The sun warms the earth, the moonlight soothes the soul, and everything is very harmonious - the beauty and customs of this alien race have always longed for humans.
The truth is revealed and cannot be denied.
Fei Zhe was dejected and sat down, "Iron Ore Valley was indeed the forging ground of elves back then. After the elves left, my grandfather was the first to discover this place. He was overjoyed at the time and moved our entire family here.
But this is also a cursed place. Our family has not benefited from this and is even poorer than before. The children of the family do not have enough food and clothing, and the women of the family cannot wear beautiful clothes. More than once, I have wanted to take the family with me.
Move away.
But I can't, I can't leave here. Before my father died, I swore to him that I would protect this settlement and make the family prosperous. But my ability is limited, and I can't break the restrictions on the mine left by the elves."
Fei Zhe burst into tears as he spoke. He pulled up a chair and sat down. The nearly two-meter-tall man cried like a child. He blamed himself, felt sad, and was extremely angry.
"It's useless for you to hate me. I'm in pain too. Because those damn elves sealed the entire mine, and our family didn't get any benefit from it at all."
Everyone present was originally full of hatred for Fei Zhe, but now they felt sympathy and empathy. Most of them, like Fei Zhe, stayed in the Black Forest with some great dream, but the reality made them feel like they were facing an abyss.
Regarding this sad narration, only Zhou Qingfeng could still smile, "Mr. Fei Zhe, don't be too sad, I can help you." As he said that, he pointed to the relief of an elf woman on the wall, with a protruding figure on her chest.
A gentle poke at the location.
With a snap, the mechanism in the wall was triggered, and there was the sound of gears meshing behind the wall, followed by the sound of talc igniting from the dome, and the chandeliers hanging above were lit one after another. The light gradually became abundant, and the hall became brighter.
The darkness on the dome was driven away, and everyone looked up. A huge and exquisite mural was revealed in front of them. The most eye-catching thing was a sun emitting light and heat hanging on it.
It is the source of light and heat, the source of life, and the source of civilization.
The sun, the sun has appeared!
Everyone had never seen such a gorgeous scene, and they were shocked and amazed.
