Chapter 70: A communication from afar
"咻-pop!"
"Wow!"
Gorgeous fireworks bloomed in the dark night sky, lighting up a star screen, attracting a group of unseen aboriginal people to amaze.
Of course, these are not real fireworks.
It's a fake version made by a few more nimble survivors using their skills, but it's similar to the real fireworks.
"Dong dong dong..." The rhythmic drum sounded.
"Hey everyone!" I don't know who it was, jumped on a big wooden box with a sudden jump, cast a loudspeaker skill on his throat, stood there with his hands raised, and cheered loudly.
"Ooooo-!" The
atmosphere of the scene was instantly ignited.
"Boom!" Another drum beat sounded, and the beautiful fox beasts, male or female, put on their most beautiful costumes, jumped out first, and danced around the bonfire.
Aboriginal music followed.
The cheerful music has the effect of inspiring people to dance, and the fox orcs take the lead. Many people who want to dance quickly put aside their restraint and happily pair up in pairs, or simply rush up and go around the bonfire. Dance on the dance floor with everyone.
Others who didn't want to dance and just wanted to cook took their own bowls and chopsticks and gathered around the eight-gut cauldron to eat their favorite food.
I have to say that this kind of thing called hot pot brought out by the lord is really delicious.
"Especially the spicy hot pot. It's the first time I've tasted this kind of food. It's exciting and refreshing. Come and come, you can try it too!" Rabbit Xiaosi, who tried spicy food for the first time, fell in love almost on the spot. This kind of special taste is not considered to be eaten by myself, and I have to give it to other companions who dare not eat spicy food.
She was so frightened that many people ran away when they saw her.
"Hahaha..." Seeing this interesting scene, Cheng Ke covered his stomach, laughed uncontrollably, and lay down on the knee of a cat orc lady.
The little dwarf sister sitting on the other side covered her mouth and smiled cutely, and then took a piece of barbecue and fed it to Cheng Ke.
"Tsk tsk tsk... This hugs the ground on the left and right, the world is getting worse!"
A passing survivor shook his head with envy and sigh, and then walked away silently based on the principle of not being out of sight and not upset.
Gu Mi sat behind the long dining table, holding a bowl of food that Hu Qi cooked for her.
The crowd not only included all the people in the territory, but also many griffins.
These griffins came to join in the fun by themselves.
They already live in the arena, so how could the banquet held at the entrance of the arena not be noticed by them, not to mention the delicious barbecue and hot pot at the banquet, many greedy griffins can't stand it at all Live the temptation.
They can't eat spicy hot pot.
Gu Mi refused to let them, fearing that something would go wrong with the griffins, but they could eat hot pot and barbecue at will.
Afraid that there would not be enough meat, Gu Mi also called out a lot of animal meat.
Maybe it was because the atmosphere was so good that the griffins were relaxed, or maybe it was the food offensive that caused them to let go of their usual vigilance.
Anyway, as far as Gu Mi saw, many of the originally ferocious griffins were just like cats that were comforted by licking. They crawl around and play, and from time to time they are willing to be touched by other teenagers, or adults, while being fed by everyone. It can be said to be very comfortable.
Niya is a mature griffin leader. She is not like the general griffins who don't need to behave in order to stutter. She has always been calmly lying not far behind Gu Mi, and occasionally bows her head to the big tree in front of her. On the pot, take a piece of lord-level animal meat that is fragrantly roasted and eat it.
In fact, she despised other non-lord-level foods.
Gu Mi glanced back at her, just in time to see Niya flick her tail, driving away little Angel who was curious to touch her.
Gryphon leaders do not carry cubs.
Originally, Gu Mi was a little worried that the little Angel who was rejected by Niya would cry, but fortunately, the little dumpling was very well-behaved. Seeing that the big griffin would not be touched, he turned to play with the silly roe deer beside him.
Having said that, this stupid roe deer is also stupid and bold.
Seeing a bunch of people having a banquet here, I came over curiously to watch the fun, not afraid of being caught and slaughtered.
You know, roe deer meat is a great delicacy.
But there is Cheng Ke, and everyone knows that the silly roe deer is her pet. I believe no one would have the idea to fight the silly roe deer.
"Yoyo..."
A head suddenly came close to him, causing Gu Mi to hide to the side subconsciously.
She watched as the head of a roe deer stretched out and took a large piece of carrot from the plate on the table in front of her. She couldn't help rubbing its hairy head in a funny way, and said, "Silly roe deer."
Then she put the plate on the table. The few pieces of carrots left in it are served to it.
Its owner is comfortably being served by a group of young ladies in front of him. Obviously, he has no time to feed the silly roe deer.
More than half of the banquet, in addition to singing and dancing, some people jumped out to perform the show, which made the atmosphere of the scene even hotter.
In this increasingly difficult world, it is rare to have such an opportunity to relax and play. Everyone cherishes it, and no one wants to leave early, even if they just sit on the scene and feel the atmosphere, they are very happy.
Grandma Rabbit, the old village chief and the Mok patriarch were sitting next to Gu Mi, smiling and watching a group of young people play happily.
Gu Mi originally thought that she would also wait until the banquet was completely over before leaving.
Until she received a communication from afar.
"Ding, you have a message from the 'rich and powerful territory', do you want to check it?"
Gu Mi was startled by the prompt box suddenly popped up by the system.
She looked at the flickering letter symbol on the virtual screen in front of her, and turned her head to explain to the old village chief and others, "I'll go first." When the
words were finished, the person immediately teleported away.
Sitting in his office, Gu Mi opened the unexpected letter.
The flickering envelope pattern paused, and then the letter was automatically unfolded, turning it into a screen full of familiar characters.
"Hello! Lord of the Hope Territory, I am Wang Jianshe, the lord of the Fuqiang Territory. I take the liberty to interrupt and send you a message, mainly to establish friendly diplomatic relations with you and achieve a mutually beneficial and win-win strategic partnership. We The territory is rich in mineral resources, iron ore concentrate, black gold ore, energy gem ore...etc. I hope you can find something that you can look up to and are willing to trade with us for some excess food or water resources.
The following is a gift from our rich and powerful territory to the territory of hope, please accept it with a smile."
Under the letter, there is a small package.
Gu Mi clicked to open the package, and a pile of ores of different types immediately fell out, which corresponded to the types of ores they possessed as described by the other party in the letter.
"So many mines!" This is a rich territory.
This was Gu Mi's first reaction when she saw this pile of ore, and then she recalled that the rich and powerful territory ranked third in the survivor territory, and murmured again: "It's a pity that there is nowhere to spend money."
But they did sharp.
The Fuqiang Territory is located in the Laki Desert. Gu Mi, who has been there, knows best what it is.
The Laki Desert is a desert with no grass, and the only cactus-like plants that can grow in it are sparsely distributed and pitifully rare, not to mention the extremely limited oasis.
There are still a lot of extremely dangerous desert monsters in it. These monsters are powerful, strong in defense, tenacious in vitality, brutal in character, and...
after being killed, there are not many drops.
That's the point!
Desert monsters turn into a pile of sand directly after they die. There are very few drops that can be left. Basically, they will not drop any meat. Even if they do, most of them are poisonous and cannot be eaten.
Under such difficult conditions, it is conceivable what kind of life the people living in it would have had.
However, Wang Jianshe can still establish a territory in such a place where birds don't lay eggs, and lead the territory to develop to the third place in the Survivor Territory Ranking, which shows that he is a powerful person.
Or Gu Mi should sigh.
As expected of the people in their flower-growing country, this infrastructure capability is strong.
Well, she's praising herself too.
Perhaps if the rich and powerful territory were to be changed to another area, even if the conditions were slightly better than that of the Laki Desert, the status of their top territories might be at risk.
Unfortunately, reality has always been cruel, and luck is also a kind of strength.
However, it cannot be said that the Hope Territory living in the Ekla Forest is lucky. Although there are many resources in the forest, the danger is no less than that of the desert. Even when the beast tide breaks out, the danger is far more dangerous than other areas. .
So I can only say that each has its pros and cons.
Closer to home.
Since this long-distance communication can be sent to Gu Mi, it means that the Fuqiang Territory should also get a communication tool similar to Gu Mi.
Originally, Gu Mi was still worried about which territory to establish contact with, but now there is no need to choose, it is directly the rich and powerful territory.
First, the other party has the same communication props, and with her side, they can establish a two-way connection smoothly, and secondly... It can be said to be a hometown plot.
Compared to foreigners, Gu Mi wants to help fellow countrymen.
"Let me think about it, what gift should I give to the family?"
In addition to establishing unilateral communication with another survivor territory on the leaderboard, "Remote Communication" can also include a small gift for the first communication. .
In order to complete the transaction through this item in the future, it must be agreed by both parties, and a certain fee must be paid to the system as the shipping fee, in order to establish a certain transaction channel.
But only 'definitely'.
The specific amount of resources that can be traded each time depends on the situation.
Now Gu Mi is thinking about what gift to give to the future trading partner and ally. The main reason is that the gift has a limited weight. The system reminds that the gift, regardless of the size and quantity, must not exceed ten kilograms.
The ore that the other party gave her seems to be of many kinds just now, but in fact, each of them is a small one, and they add up to about ten pounds, which does not exceed the weight limit.
Gu Mi's words...
She thought for a moment and decided to give the other party something they didn't have but were in desperate need of.
A small bag of 5 jins of fine grains purchased from other territories, plus 3.5 jins of six plump red berries, and a small packet of 1.5 jins of salt.
The rich and powerful territories donated those ores not only to represent friendship, but also to send samples to the Hope Territory for review purposes. Similarly, Gu Mi also sent food, fruits that can supplement water and sugar, and salt, indicating that their territory can Exchange these supplies with them.
The most urgent water resources in the desert are naturally available in their territory.
But clear water takes up too much weight, and there is no container that is difficult to pack, and no one gives gifts to clear water, so Gu Mi did not directly send water.
