In fact, the travelers who crossed into the desert area had a pretty good life in the early stages.
Although mobile fortresses seem strange to the natives, they are quickly accepted by the desert natives. This may be because the styles of mobile fortresses built by travelers in the desert area are in line with the habits and aesthetics of the desert natives, such as Qin Nan's Beetle Fortress.
The earliest group of time travelers once lived as nobles in the desert for a period of time. Yes, they were nobles, and they were nobles that were very much loved by the upper-level indigenous people of the desert.
The most precious resource in the desert is water, followed by living trees, then food, minerals, gems, and other rare items.
As long as there is enough water, we can feed more people and allow more people to serve us.
Compared to a knife, being without water is more despairing.
This is exactly what the time travelers don't worry about. With the trading system, resources like water, which are simple to obtain, are not difficult at all. They can get clean water continuously.
A time traveler who has water is a guest of honor in any desert city. All the high-ranking officials in the desert are trying to curry favor with the time travelers just to get more water. This gives the time travelers the opportunity to be profiteers, gather a lot of resources in the early stage, and quickly upgrade the fortress.
However, the original group of travelers were too greedy. In order to upgrade the fortress faster, they wanted more resources and kept raising the price of water, but they forgot that the indigenous people of the desert highlands were a group of animals more ferocious than hyenas.
When they can accept the price, everything is fine. When they feel that the price is too high and the input and output are not proportional, they switch to another mode - war!
The war between the indigenous people and the time travelers began.
Things were not as good as the time traveler had imagined. The war was indeed one-sided, but it was not on the time traveler's side.
The time travelers who were full of confidence in going to war with the indigenous people were defeated by them. For the first time, they realized that they might not be the protagonists.
The indigenous people of the desert did not kill all the traversers. They wanted to continue to buy clean water from the traversers. This gave the traversers in the desert a chance to breathe, and at the same time they calmed down their tempers and became much more honest.
Gradually, the traversers began to blend into the environment and join in the chaos of the desert. They might go to war with any party. There are no eternal friends, only eternal interests.
The desert natives also found a way to deal with the time travelers. It was simple: they would break into the mobile city, kill the lord, and then loot and leave.
They had no intention of destroying the mobile city, as that would do them no good at all; they only wanted to plunder it.
When Li Ziyu heard this, he couldn't help but look at Lin Youyou. Isn't this a decapitation tactic? It turns out that the desert natives have been using it all the time, and it seems that they use it quite well. At least this side of the desert has not been crushed by the time travelers like other areas.
Qin Nan told Li Ziyu that it was normal for any party to start a war in the desert, and there was no need to make a fuss. There was no need to be surprised to see travelers from other areas, as there were too many travelers from other areas here.
Of course, desert travelers don’t like travelers from other areas coming to their side to steal resources. They will cheat anyone they can, and they don’t feel any psychological burden if they kill anyone.
Li Ziyu glanced at Qin Nan, who smiled awkwardly and said that he would definitely not cheat Boss Li because Boss Li was a good man.
Good guy is a rare title among those who travel through the desert. They will not easily give anyone the title of good guy. That means they accept that person and will not take action against that person.
It's not just about giving out nice guy cards casually, but there are actual benefits involved.
Qin Nan kept talking as he moved forward, getting closer and closer to the coordinate point left by Li Wendi.
“Stop!”
On this day, when Li Ziyu was standing on the roof of the main building listening to Qin Nan's bragging, Lin Youyou suddenly came to him and said to him.
Li Ziyu didn't hesitate at all and ordered the castle to stop. Then he looked at Lin Youyou and asked, "What happened?"
Lin Youyou half-closed her eyes and whispered, "There are many traces of mobile cities around here, some at the fortress and some at the castle level. It's not very safe. They're probably heading for the ruins."
If Qin Nan hadn't explained it to him, Li Ziyu might have been more serious. However, after Qin Nan's recent explanation, Li Ziyu felt that this was normal. He shrugged and said, "This is normal, right? Didn't Qin Nan say that war with any party is possible? There's no need to be so vigilant. We've encountered this many times."
Qin Nan nodded on the side, indicating that what Li Ziyu said was right. It was not uncommon to encounter time travelers in the desert. They had encountered many time travelers along the way, but the two sides just met and left each other without any conflict, of course, except for the people from the Life Empire Alliance.
Although the desert is chaotic, it also depends on who you are dealing with. Li Ziyu and Lin Youyou, two castles, plus Qin Nan's fortress, are connected together. They look like they are not easy to deal with. Who would be stupid enough to come and confront them without any grudges?
Lin Youyou hesitated for a moment, feeling that perhaps her nerves were a little tense and excessively nervous because she was getting closer to her destination. However, she still warned, "Be more careful. The ruins have always been a focus of competition among various forces. It never hurts to be careful."
Li Ziyu accepted it humbly and waved his hand to send out large groups of Eyes of the Undead and Gale Rangers to be alert to the surrounding environment. Anyone who tried to approach them would be noticed, including the indigenous people.
