Miss Witch doesn't want to be a diva!.

Chapter 486 The Drifter’s Encounter
The dormitory is not very spacious. The woman standing opposite Tilan has black and brown hair, yellow skin, and some wrinkles on her fingers, probably due to frequent soaking in water.

When Tilan asked, she responded with some inarticulate speech.

"Yes."

Seeing that the other party was still a little nervous, Tilan shook her head, looked at the open door beside her, and simply raised her hand to ask the maid on the side to close the door. At this time, the room became quiet, and there was only the sound of the two breathing in the room.

"You can sit by the bed, it will be a lot easier." Tilan told the other party not to be so nervous, and then she sat down on the chair next to the small table in the room.

"Yes, yes." The other party held the bed slightly nervously and sat down slowly, his body still a little stiff.

Knowing that the situation would not change for a while, Tilan no longer asked the other party to relax.

"I came to you just to understand your situation, not to punish you."

"Can you first tell me where you are from?"

Under the comfort of Tilan's soft words, the other party finally calmed down a little. She reluctantly raised her head, glanced at the extremely gorgeous singer girl in front of her, and quickly lowered her head.

In that startling glance just now, the other person's otherworldly appearance and temperament lingered in her mind for a long time, making her thoughts confused. After a few seconds, she came back to her senses and thought about how to answer the question.

"Me, I come from the Ten Columns Star Territory and grew up in the Xilun Star. After graduating from high school, I came to work in the Central Star Territory. At first, I worked in a tea shop, but the salary was not high. Then I went to a high-end restaurant, and finally to Here." After she started to answer, her speech became more fluent.

"How many years has it been?" Tilan asked.

"I was 19 when I came here, and now I am 28, almost nine years."

"How did you come to the Central Star Territory at that time? The travel expenses should not be cheap." The location of the Ten Vertical Star Territory is very remote, in the northeast corner of the Federation.

"It's my uncle, my mother's brother. He works in the Central Star Territory. When he found out that I graduated, he bought me a boat ticket and asked me to come over." Speaking of her uncle, there was a hint of dependence in her voice. and peace of mind.

“Was it a difficult process?”

"It's not difficult, but it's a little uncomfortable on the road. Because I only have the strength of Sequence 3, it would be uncomfortable to ride on a super-light starship for interstellar travel, but I heard that some high-end starships will be much better."

"After I came here, my uncle helped me find a place to live, and then accompanied me to find a job. He gave me a lot of guidance, so I didn't make any detours." When talking about her first job, she was obviously very excited. She was really happy when she came.

"The people in the tea shop are very nice, and sometimes you can get free drinks, which are better than the fine wines collected by my grandpa back home. This is the first time I heard that some drinks can also help practice extraordinary sequences."

Hearing this, Tilan became a little curious.

"Aren't there any drinks with extraordinary effects like this in the Ten Vertical Star Regions?"

"I don't know. Maybe there are some big shots, but I haven't seen them." Madsun shook his head.

"It is said that it would be good if there is clean drinking water there."

"My family has to go to the water storage tower in the town every day to fetch water. Usually my mother drives to haul it. During holidays, my brother and I also have meetings to help drive and transport water."

"Isn't there a direct pipeline to your home?" Tilan thought for a while.

"No, I didn't know until I came to the Central Star Territory that everyone can drink clean water and don't have to go to such trouble."

"Later, I checked the information and realized that the pollution in the Ten Vertical Star Region is very serious. It would be too expensive to lay pipelines to resist extraordinary toxic erosion, so water purification towers are usually built in towns."

"Wait a minute, I remember that devices that can purify extraordinary toxins are not cheap." After all, Jade Skirt had given up on the prosperous areas in the north for this reason.

"It seems so, but the water purification tower is indeed useful." Madsang said he didn't know.

"If it's what you said, I suddenly remembered that many people in my hometown do not live very long. Grandpa is the oldest person in the town at the age of 70." After all, she has received formal education from the Federation and is also on the Central Star. Having stayed in the field for many years, he is not stupid and quickly figured out the reason.

"Maybe the effect is limited, but in such an environment, it's good to be alive."

"Are there many people like you in the Ten Column Star Regions who come to work in the Central Star Region?"

"Very few. If I didn't have uncle, I probably wouldn't be able to come."

"why?"

"To come to the Central Star Territory, you must at least have received a formal high school education, and to travel across star fields, you must also have Sequence 3 strength to ride on a super-light starship."

"Many people can't reach this. Even if they can, many people can't afford ferry tickets."

"Local people usually earn around 1000 Federation coins per month, and the cheapest boat ticket to the Central Star Region costs 18 Federation coins."

"Among my high school classmates, I am the only one who has come to the Central Star Territory. The best among the others is to go to the adjacent Dark Harbor Star Territory. The ticket there only costs 5 federal coins."

"How much will your salary be after coming to the Central Star Territory?"

"In the beginning, there were only 3000 federal coins. A year later, I had 5000 federal coins. Later, in high-end restaurants, I could touch the threshold of 8000 federal coins every month."

"Now this hotel costs about 9000 federal dollars."

The salary in the Central Star Territory is much higher than that of Siye Jing, Tilan made a comparison in her mind.

A well-educated Sequence 3 engineer in Yotsuba Jing's monthly salary is only 6000-7000 federal coins. In the Central Star Territory, the salary of a waiter can easily exceed that. If it is the same Sequence 3 engineer, in the Central Star Territory, the salary of a waiter can easily exceed that. Star Territory's salary is about 12000 federal coins, which is twice that of Siye Jing.

Of course, this is just an income comparison, and the expenditure on various services in the central star field will be much higher.

"How do you feel after coming to the central star field?" At this point, the other party has slowly entered the state and completely relaxed.

"I like it here very much. It's much better than my hometown." She really likes it here.

"The living environment, public security, treatment, and all kinds of new and advanced things are completely incomparable to those in my hometown."

After talking about the practical treatment, Tilan brought the topic to the spiritual aspect.

"Have you ever thought about your hometown?"

"I used to think about it, but later it felt more and more strange." Madsang's words are quite true.

"My family didn't quite understand my life here, and they often asked me to send money back. Later, apart from asking for money, we had nothing to talk about." "They didn't understand the world I came into contact with in the Central Star Territory at all. And their lives are hardly attractive to me." She bit her lower lip.

"Have you never thought about asking your brother to come over?" Tilan remembered that she had said that she had a brother.

"His grades are not very good, and he is also quite lazy." The other party shook his head. Without Sequence 3, he couldn't even ride on a super-light starship.

"Where are the other students?"

"Some of them envy me, but it takes too long to save up the money for the ferry ticket to the Central Star Territory. Some of them got married, or bought houses and other vehicles, etc., so they were delayed, and then they gradually got used to it. I don’t think about living locally anymore.”

"That's it." Tilan sighed silently after hearing this.

When it comes to talent, there may not be much difference between Madsang and her classmates, but a single boat ticket can make a difference for decades or even a lifetime.

"Tell me about the history of the Ten Vertical Star Regions. I want to know how you discovered the anomaly and assisted the work of the 'Coolant Office.'" Tilan's voice changed and she mentioned that Medesan was imprisoned here. Because of this, the other party's originally excited mood instantly cooled down.

She once again felt the terrifying pressure brought by the singer in front of her. She was a super figure standing at the top of the federation. This singer might be able to make those giant companies that she couldn't even look up to bow their heads with just one word. Change the fate of millions of people.

"I, I..." Her voice was trembling because she once again remembered that the girl she offended was also a singer, and her fame was as influential as the girl in front of her.

"I was really unintentional at the time. I was just greedy for the rewards and benefits promised by the office, and I inadvertently offended Lord Shui Yanqing." Her sitting body was particularly uneasy, and she even hesitated to kneel down and say something to the singer. plead.

"Now that I said I won't pursue it any further, you just need to feel at ease. Even if it's Shui Yanqing, if I explain the situation to her, she won't ask any more about it." When saying this, Tilan His voice was resolute, both stern and protective, frightening the woman opposite, and then she felt relieved.

"Yes, Lord Tilan." She reorganized her thoughts, and then carefully recalled her childhood experiences.

"In the Ten Vertical Star Region, which is also the Tin Wheel Star, there is a legend about the 'Red God'. This is an ancient mythological belief and the hope of our ancestors when they lived underground."

"During the Fifth Era, the Dark Suns clashed in the Ten Vertical Star Fields. It was originally an area with relatively good economic development at the beginning of the Fourth Era, and had a large population and population."

"The rising solar crowns collide with each other among the galaxies. They control the tides of stars and use the huge energy generated by star burning to launch attacks. During the war, the surfaces of many habitable stars will be washed away by violent streams of high-energy particles from the sun. This kind of The attack is enough to destroy most life on the surface."

"So at this stage, many people moved to live underground, and then gradually adapted."

"Afterwards, the situation on the ground stabilized, and the tribes under the Black Sun came to the planet to settle and spread. These new races completely believed in the will of the Black Sun, and they also launched an elimination plan against the underground adaptors."

"In order to avoid the pursuit of these new races, underground people must learn a special secret method before reaching adulthood. This secret method can sense the blood characteristics of these new races, so as to be alert and avoid them."

"Later, our ancestors created the belief about the 'Red God' to encourage everyone and make everyone believe that as long as they persist, when the day when the 'Red God' comes, all the 'new races' will be destroyed in the wrath of the 'Red God' Burn and disappear."

"This type of secret technique has also become something similar to the coming-of-age ceremony in religion. That is, each clan member must learn this type of secret technique before he can be regarded as an adult and qualified to act independently."

"Although the Fifth Era has ended long ago, such customs are still passed down in many places in Xilun, and the teachings of the 'Red God' contain many dogmas that are hostile to 'foreigners'."

"If a tribesman can kill an 'alien', it will be the best pleasure for the 'Red God', and he will be qualified to burn a fire mark on his back with a hot iron. When enough 'new races' are killed, The fire marks on his back will accumulate, and eventually they will resemble burning wings of fire. He will also become a great saint among the tribe, and his name will be remembered."

"So, you happen to know this kind of secret technique, right?" Tilan said.

"Yes, Lord Tilan." She put her hands on the bed and lowered her head, as if she wanted to express respect.

"Is there still much belief in the 'Red God' in Xilun Planet?"

"It depends on the region. If it is an area with a good economy, there will be fewer. But if it is a remote area, there are still many such beliefs. And even if they don't believe in the 'Red God', local children will learn such secrets. This has been integrated into the cultural customs. Yes, every teacher will teach it, and parents and teachers will make sure the children learn it.”

"Do you hate 'alien'?"

"This... you don't like it. Before the Fifth Era, there were nearly 20 habitable stars in the Ten Vertical Star Fields with tens of billions of inhabitants. However, at the end of the Fifth Era, there were only less than million inhabitants among the tens of billions of aborigines. After surviving, archeology in many places can even find wreckage and corpses that are still floating in space," Medsan explained.

"I know." Tilan stopped asking this question.

"How do you feel about the Federation as a whole now?"

"It's better. Although my hometown is very poor, because of the federal acceptance, there are some subsidies and improvements every year. Compared with the tragic situation at the end of the fifth quarter, it is much better." Madsan said that most of the ten The residents of the Star Territory have a favorable impression of the Federation. It can be said that without the establishment and acceptance of the Federation, these places would have been buried in the polluted ruins.

"But it is basically the poorest place in the Federation. Will the locals be dissatisfied?" Tilan asked again.

"Is it the poorest? I don't know. When I was a child, I rarely knew about the situation in other star fields in the Federation. Most people just think that living is good."

"In the teachings of the 'Red God', we respect the elderly and life very much. As long as you live long enough, you will gain everyone's respect. If you unfortunately die young or die young, you will think that this person is irresponsible for his own life. Immoral, stupid, without strength or courage."

"The longer you live, the more powerful you are. If you still carry many 'fire marks', you will often become the leader of the clan. The saints in the religious books have all lived for a long time and have 'wings of fire marks' "

After listening to the other party's story, Tilan nodded, and then asked a lot about the situation in the Ten Vertical Star Territory, as well as the local people's world view and values. Later, she also asked the other party about other star territory people she met while working in the Central Star Territory. What an impression.

"It's hard to evaluate. I only know that most orcs come from the northern star regions. The economy in the eastern star region is pretty good and there are many traditional easterners. The star regions in the south are uneven, and people from the western star region are very rare. "

"Is that so? I understand." At this point, the conversation gradually ended.

Afterwards, Tilan stood up and left. Then the footsteps outside the door gradually faded away. The woman in the room breathed a sigh of relief after a long time. She stood up slowly holding on to the head of the bed, only to realize that her back was completely sweaty. Wet.

For Tilan, she felt fearful, grateful, and admiring. It was difficult to describe her mood at this moment.

However, the singer was really scary. She remembered that Tilan only spoke harshly once in the middle of the conversation, which almost scared her to her knees. She was even more focused on the subsequent questions and answers, not daring to make any mistakes.

Now that the conversation was over, she felt like she was surviving a disaster, as if she had disappeared under a heavy pressure, which was a bit unbelievable.

Although she didn’t know how the hotel dealt with it in the end, since Master Tilan said that she would not pursue the case any further, she fully believed that with that master’s majesty, the hotel would not dare to do anything excessive. This feeling of joy was like a huge one. Happiness enveloped her.

She really didn't dare to do it anymore. She realized that she was just an ordinary person. If someone from a firm approached her to do things in the gray field again, she would never dare to do it again. Maybe Lord Tilan had forgiven her, Shui Yan Master Qing will also not pursue her case for the sake of Master Tilan.

but!

As long as the singer Shui Yanqing is alive, her followers will spontaneously protect everything about this singer. Such forces and many chaebol groups will take action against her once they discover that she has any problems involving gray areas in the future. It's justifiable.

This is not because she has delusions of being persecuted, but because the singer's fans often number in the hundreds of millions, and as long as one ten thousandth of them care, she cannot resist them.

In the eyes of Tilan and others, it may be just a small conflict between a few friends, but in the eyes of ordinary people at the lower levels of the federation, it is nothing more than a collision between giants.
