Chapter 300

Many people have heard of the situation in the wilderness.

However, the truth of the facts is not very clear to the hearsay people.

Led by Andre, they came to a world completely different from what they imagined.

In the impression, the tribe should be a little deserted and dilapidated. Even if the tribe is only a name, the oasis land in the periphery of the wilderness is very scarce. Even if a tribe's predecessor is used as a temporary base, it can't be much bigger.

But when he saw the chase wind tribe with his own eyes, Sean was still severely shocked.

His shock was different from others' shock at the scale of the driven tribe.

There is no such situation in the game.

Sean remembered clearly that in the game, there was great hatred and confrontation between the wild land and outside the wild land. Although several supply points or front-line bases were set up because of the game, the scale was very small. And later, because of the involvement of some tasks, many players chose to join the tribal camp in the wilderness and destroyed all these supply points. At that time, foreign players needed the relationship of "guide" to enter the wilderness to do tasks.

Those players who joined the wild land tribe in the early stage were specially allowed to become a member of the Presbyterian Council of the tribal alliance because of their outstanding contributions in such a war. Such an identity is the so-called "guide", and their value rose at once. Because only through their introduction and guarantee can other players join the tribal camp in the wilderness, and such an introduction fee is as high as hundreds of thousands of game coins, which is also 30000 credit points if converted into cash.

Is it because there are no players in the world, so these front-line bases can be developed?

Sean's face remained shocked.

It is more appropriate to say that Zhufeng tribe is a town than a tribe.

Of course, the walls here can't be made of stones, but some walls similar to earth slopes. Naturally, there's no need to count on their defense ability. A bear can collapse with one kick. However, everyone knows that the function of these walls is not to defend, but to clarify the territory. Anyway, as long as they are within the scope of these walls, they belong to the jurisdiction of the driven wind tribe. Anyone must abide by the rules here. It's none of their business outside the walls.

As for houses, they are not made of wood or stone, but tents. These tents are big and small. The big one is two or three times larger than the main account in the military camp outside the empty city. The small one obviously knows that it is difficult to live alone, and the construction of these tents is irregular, which makes the whole chasing wind tribe look a lot messy, but it is unexpected that it is relatively clean.

In the wilderness, stone and wood are precious resources, so unless those large tribes are extremely large, it is impossible to use stone or wooden walls and houses.

"My Lord, this is the chase wind tribe." Before they entered the tribe, Andre first pointed to the door of Zhufeng tribe and said, "there is a rule at any trade point. It is not allowed to sell slaves or any war in the trade point. It's OK to disagree with each other, but if you want to fight, you must leave the tribe more than a mile away. "

"Aren't slave hunters all rebellious guys? Will you be so obedient? " Sean asked somewhat puzzled.

"In every trade point, there is at least one strong man who is inferior to gold. This is the deterrent power." Andre said, "slave hunters like us do the hardest and most tiring work. If there is no way, who is willing to be slave hunters? Therefore, a strong gold man sitting at the trade point is enough to make any slave catcher dare not act rashly. What's more, in addition to the strong gold man, there is an armed force at each trade point. Those businessmen are not stupid. "

"Armed forces?" Cecilia was a little interested. "How many people are there in this armed force?"

"It's hard to say. It mainly depends on the scale of trade points." Andre said, "but there are usually two or three hundred people, which is larger than any single slave team, and all of them are sophisticated equipment. Therefore, generally, no slave team at the trade point will be so unkind to provoke the managers here."

"Can these trade points afford so many people?" Sean was curious.

According to his visual observation, Zhufeng tribe has at least a scale of more than one or two thousand people. In the wilderness, with this scale, both the settled population and the floating population are relatively large. As Andre said, those "small tribes" are one or two hundred people or less. Even some larger tribes usually have a population of four or five hundred people, but in fact, the number of people who can fight is only more than one hundred.

This is why the slave teams here in the wilderness usually set a maximum of about 100 people. On the one hand, it is convenient to move. On the other hand, it is also because of the small number of people, so the demand for materials is not enough. It can be supplemented at a low cost at trade points. Moreover, once the slave arrest is successful, everyone will share enough money.

Those tribes with more than 1000 people usually meet only in the deeper areas of the wilderness. After all, the oasis there is more vast.

"There were not so many people before, but they have only developed recently. However, many people and few people are not a problem for trade points." Andre shrugged and said indifferently.

"Why?" Tina was a little confused.

But Sean immediately caught the key: "whether there are many or few people, there are only so many resources, so we just need to raise the price."

"Lord, you are wise." Andre flattered a little, "before, five pan continental gold coins could be exchanged for water in a water bag. When we left with Lord Vivian, it had risen to 20 pan continental gold coins. Now there are obviously more people in Zhufeng tribe. I'm afraid it's more than that price."

The water bags of people who move here in the wilderness are specially made. Each water bag can store the normal consumption of drinking water for three days. If you save some, it can even last for more than five days. Generally, people who travel in the wild will carry at least three water bags, and the maximum distance between each trade point is about 20 days. Therefore, generally, there are few problems in supply. It is obvious that both slave teams and caravans are special budget minded people.

Of course, even if we want to go deep into the wilderness, we will not easily get involved in the risk if the problem of drinking water is not solved.

At the current level of the slave team, it is the limit to go deep into the wilderness. If you continue to go deep, it is not only difficult to supplement resources, but also easy to encounter large-scale tribes. At that time, it will not be the slave team to capture slaves, but the members of the slave team are likely to become the rations of those tribes.

After all, in the wilderness, there are still many ethnic groups who don't mind eating human flesh at all.

"What is the situation of the chasing wind tribe?" Cecilia asked.

"There is a strong man who is inferior to gold. Although he is not a top strong man, he has also become famous for a long time." Andre thought for a moment, then said, "there is another armed force of about 200 people, which seems to be infantry cavalry. It once faced the joint operation of three slave hunting teams. The strong man didn't take action. The three slave hunting teams were completely defeated, and the armed team of the driven tribe... No casualties."

"It's a little interesting." Sean raised his eyebrows.

The slave team is not an army.

At least the team that Sean put together did not get his real eye recognition. In other words, most slave teams could not be troops. But after all, the slave team is also a combat team with long-term cooperation and tacit understanding. If it is not an army, it should also be a mercenary group - at least Sean found that his passive skills can take effect, so it should be systematically judged as a mercenary group and adventure group.

With such a tacit team, it usually takes at least regular troops of the same scale to suppress it.

Sean silently calculated the combat effectiveness of the armed forces of the chasing wind tribe in his heart, and then quickly came to the desired answer: a standard three-level army may be changing in the direction of a four-level army.

"How long ago was this?" Sean asked.

"Two or three years ago." Andre thought about it and said with some uncertainty, "but at that time, our scope of activities was not here, so it was just heard. Later, although the scope of activities was transferred here, after all, this kind of thing is a trade point secret, and we dare not inquire about it. However, it is true that the armed forces are well equipped. I saw it with my own eyes. "

Cecilia glanced at Sean and wondered why Sean asked about these things.

"Just know yourself and your enemy." Sean smiled. "If we want to develop here in the wild in the future, Zhufeng tribe is the first trade point we face. It's not bad to know more."

Cecilia said, without much reaction and feeling, and so did Tina. On the contrary, Andre and his slave team members were startled.

"Lord, attacking trade points is tantamount to fighting against the pan continental chamber of Commerce Alliance." Andre hurriedly reminded, "although the chase wind tribe is only jointly operated by several small chambers of Commerce, it is also one of the trade routes in the wilderness. There are the shadow of the top ten chambers of Commerce."

"Businessmen are profit seeking. As long as the interests are enough, there is nothing they can't sell." Sean whispered, but near the gate of the chasing wind tribe, his eyes were soon attracted by the excitement at the gate, "what's that?"

"Oh, the slave trade." Andre looked at it and then said, "the slave trade is not allowed in the trade point. After all, there are occasional tribal people in the wild to buy things, so the blatant slave trade is not good for this trade route However, free trade at trade points doesn't matter. Anyway, those people will bear everything by themselves, as long as they don't involve trade points. However, if the general slave teams are not really desperate, they will not sell slaves outside the trade point. "

"Why?"

"Because the bidding price is not high, it is at least half cheaper than the normal slave market, let alone through the auction of the underground slave black market." Andre replied, "like an ordinary grey elf, you can normally sell two or three hundred pan continental gold coins in the slave market, but here a hundred gold coins can top the sky, and even bargain."

Sean and others clearly nodded, but then he gave a light EH.
