Chapter 69 Hu Jinshi

'Fortunately, the upgrade time has not increased.'

Inside the room, Liu Hen breathed a sigh of relief when he saw that the countdown was also one hour.

When using the core of the tree of life to make a warm headgear, the production time increased from the normal one minute to one hour.

He had thought that the upgrade time for the complete set would also be increased.

"It seems that after being assimilated by my golden finger, even the body material of a peerless demon will function according to my will."

Liu Hen smiled and said, "What effect will the [Shock] effect of the Rotten Wood level evolve into after reaching the Black Iron level?"

"Tuk tuk..."

There was a knock on the door, and Chang Xin said from outside, "Someone's here, about twenty or thirty people. They should be people living in the cave near Hongluo Camp. Do you want to go and take a look?"

"The people in the cave near Hongluo Camp?"

The first person Liu Hen thought of was Pang Xuan and his group.

"It's not that coincidental, is it? I've sealed those people in the cave, but they're just ordinary slag after all, so maybe they can be dug out."

He pulled the thermal hood up to his neck, then opened the door and walked out: "Lead the way."

Chang Xin immediately led the way.

The two of them quickly left the inner area and came to the outer camp, walking along the inner stairs all the way to the top of the city wall.

"grown ups."

Wu Yuanming and others saluted immediately.

With the light of the bonfire, Liu Hen saw at a glance the twenty or thirty people waiting below the city wall.

The crowd included men, women, young and old, but apart from a few familiar faces, there was no one like Pang Xuan.

Liu Hen breathed a sigh of relief. He didn't want his first wave of customers to be the people he wanted to kill.

"Sir, the guy in the lead is called Hu Jinshi, and he is the leader of this group."

Wu Yuanming explained: "I once did business with them. They make a living by growing a kind of poisonous flower that grows on the surface."

"Poisonous flower?"

Liu Hen said, "Since you know this group of people, then you can go and negotiate with them and tell them that the Campfire Camp is open to the inhabitants, but if you want to stay here, each person needs to pay a monthly rent of one magic crystal. Other expenses, such as food, will be charged separately, and the price will not be higher than that of the Red Snail Camp."

After a pause, he suddenly added, "But anyone who moves in here must hand in their hot weapons."

Thermal weapons are very dangerous things. Even for him now, he can capsize if he is not careful.

"Yes, my lord."

Wu Yuanming immediately took Wu Yuanguang down the city wall.

Meanwhile, outside the camp.

Hu Jinshi waited anxiously.

The Hongluo camp suddenly went to war with a group of outsiders, throwing shells everywhere, and after the outsiders were defeated, they took their anger out on them.

Unable to survive, they had no choice but to give up their great advantage and move into the darkness.

Not long ago, they saw a fire here more than ten kilometers away and rushed over. Unexpectedly, they found a camp built on the surface.

"Captain, come quickly, it's so warm here..."

Suddenly someone not far away said in shock.

"What's warm?"

Hu Jinshi was alert and walked towards that direction with a pistol in hand.

Soon, he came under the campfire and suddenly felt as if he had entered a warm bubble, and the cold wind was instantly isolated outside.

Not only that, the moment he entered this range, he felt warm in his heart, as if there was some special power protecting him.

"This...what kind of power is this?!"

He was shocked.

Seeing this, the other people in the team also hurried over.

When they entered the shelter of the campfire, they were all shocked.

"So warm..."

"Oh my god, how can there be such a warm place?!"

“So comfortable!!”

Everyone showed an expression of ecstasy, but also felt unbelievable.

Because there was clearly nothing here to block the cold wind, but it was strangely warmer than the cave they were in before.

When the cold wind outside entered here, it seemed to be suddenly transformed into warm wind, and there was no longer that uncomfortable cutting sensation.

The frail old people and children in the crowd were even more ecstatic.

Especially the elderly, almost all of them have various hidden injuries on their bodies, and some are even disabled. They have very weak resistance to extreme environments. After traveling continuously, they feel like they will die at any time.

But now that they have entered this range, these people feel as if they have suddenly entered heaven from hell. The warm and comfortable feeling makes them wonder if they are dreaming.

"Captain, it's so comfortable here..."

"Shall we take a break here?"

Many people looked at Hu Jinshi pleadingly. They had traveled hundreds of kilometers in a row and were tired. Now that there was no danger behind them, they wanted to rest here. Hu Jinshi was about to speak when the city gate not far away suddenly opened.

He was startled and hurriedly led his men to meet them.

Soon, a familiar-looking man appeared in the field of vision, but his face was different from the dirty face of ordinary wastelanders, it was very clean.

Moreover, the clothes the other person was wearing were completely stuck to his body, which gave him a very strange feeling.

But he could see that the clothes were very high-end, completely different from the tattered clothes they were wearing, which were almost completely clumped together.

"Captain Hu, long time no see." Wu Yuanming said with a smile.

Hearing this familiar voice, Hu Jinshi's face changed slightly: "Are you Wu Yuanming, the captain of the Wu family team?"

He finally recognized Wu Yuanming, the man who had once done business with him in a humble manner, but now seemed like a completely different person.

Although the other person was smiling, the condescending look in his eyes was almost obvious, which made him feel very uncomfortable.

But at this moment he didn't dare to get angry, and greeted politely: "It's been a long time, Captain Wu, have you become rich?"

"Thanks to the guidance of the light, we are now following Lord Liu Hen and working under him." Wu Yuanming said proudly.

Hu Jinshi's heart moved, and he quickly asked, "I wonder who this Mr. Liu Hen is..."

"Lord Liu Hen is a person with special abilities. This is the camp he established."

Wu Yuanming replied, "You are lucky. You are the first guests since the Campfire was built. If each of you pays a rent of one magic crystal per month, you can live in the camp."

"stranger?"

"Is there a legendary superpower here?"

Everyone was shocked.

Hu Jinshi was also surprised, but what concerned him most was Wu Yuanming's next words: "Can we also live in this camp?"

Apart from anything else, what made him jealous the most was the temperature here. The temperature was so comfortable that he was reluctant to leave.

And the living expenses of one person per month only cost one magic crystal, which they can totally afford.

"Yes."

Wu Yuanming nodded.

Suddenly, everyone present was moved.

Even though they haven't seen any other benefits, the temperature here alone is enough to move them in and they can't wait to move in.

“There should be other requirements, right?”

Hu Jinshi felt that things might not be that simple, because this was a camp built by a master with superpowers, and to some extent, it was more advanced than the Hongluo Camp.

Although he didn't know why the legendary high-ranking psychic would appear in such a place, the existence of the psychic itself was a deterrent, and he didn't dare to speculate without authorization.

"Yes."

Wu Yuanming had a 'you're quite sensible' look on his face and said, "Master Liu Hen said that hot-metal weapons must be handed in, but you can keep the other weapons. Of course, this is voluntary. Master doesn't value such things, and this is only to ensure the safety of others in the camp."

Hu Jinshi was very unhappy with Wu Yuanming's look, but at this moment he didn't dare to show any dissatisfaction at all. Instead, he subconsciously said with a flattering look: "Then please ask, if we want to leave, can we get our guns back?"

"This... depends on your performance." Wu Yuanming did not dare to act on his own.

Hu Jinshi suddenly hesitated. Even though he only had a small pistol on him, this thing was his foundation of survival. If he couldn't get it back, the loss would be huge.

Before he could speak, someone next to him asked impatiently, "Excuse me, is there any food here?"

Hu Jinshi frowned and looked at the person who spoke.

"Of course, but you also need to buy food with magic crystals."

Wu Yuanming said, "The price won't be higher than Hongluo Camp."

Suddenly, many people became excited. If they could live in such a warm environment, they would be willing to do so even if it was a little harder.

Especially some of the young and strong ones, who could get the magic crystals by themselves, saw their boss hesitate, and they even wanted to leave the team and join the camp in front of them.

On the city wall, Liu Hen saw this and stopped looking. As long as these people didn't cause trouble for him, he didn't bother to care.

The reason why he wanted to accept the barbarians was that he didn't like it to be too quiet. When he had the ability to suppress others, he naturally wanted to establish a gathering place.

Another thing is that he needs the help of the barbarians to get magic crystals.

"Don't you want to conquer the world? You can try to recruit the people below." Liu Hen suddenly said to Chang Xin.

After washing herself, this woman really has some royal lady style, especially now that she is wearing a completely close-fitting warm suit. Her tall figure makes her look even more feminine.

"Is this... really possible?" Chang Xin's heart moved.

"Of course, but you need to work hard on your own."

Liu Hen said: "I won't interfere, but I won't provide you with the supplies to conquer the world for free. You need to fight for it on your own."

He took out a three-pound bowl of carbohydrate porridge and said, "Try it."

Chang Xin took the bowl, sniffed it, and quickly tried to drink a sip. Suddenly, a look of shock flashed across her face: "It's more filling than the food you gave us before."

“Before, it was tree cake paste, made of tree cake.”

Liu Hen explained, "This is called 'Carbohydrate Nutrient Porridge' in your bowl. It can be perfectly absorbed by the human body. I will sell it to the public in the future. One magic crystal costs one kilogram. The bowl in your hand is about three kilograms."
