Chapter 190 Strange Tales
Since Jiang Shuzhou arrived in Kenos, this fortified city, he has been so engrossed in experiments that he has long forgotten what the world is like.
After all, teaching students is something to do in your spare time or when you have no other choice; doing experiments is the right way.
Jess was very dissatisfied with this, but Jiang Shuzhou only needed to say one sentence to leave him speechless.
"I've given you my ranking reward. Go draw some diagrams when you're free, and don't bother me while I'm doing my experiments."
What else could Jess say?
He could only wish Jiang Shuzhou a successful experiment and a burst of inspiration.
He also kept the students in check, not allowing any of them to set foot in the camp.
He was mainly afraid, because he feared that these students might see things they shouldn't see and then mysteriously disappear.
However, he was overthinking it. Jiang Shuzhou always acted with integrity and would not show things that he shouldn't see to people who shouldn't see them.
For example, the three brothers who were live-streaming from inside the camp.
Although a contract was signed, the camp was actually semi-closed, not a real concentration camp, and the orcs had two hours of free time every day.
They can move freely within the camp, and they can also spend the money they earn.
Although the work only pays 10 copper coins a day, it includes food and lodging, and there's nowhere to spend money, so naturally these orcs will find a place in the camp to spend it.
All the facilities in the camp were set up by Jiang Shuzhou, so he didn't actually consume any resources.
It only consumes a little more supplies, but such a small amount of supplies can significantly improve the stability of the camp.
Therefore, orcs are such strange creatures. If Jiang Shuzhou directly distributes consumer goods, the orcs will take it for granted. However, if Jiang Shuzhou pays them wages so they can buy the goods themselves, they will be extremely grateful.
In the tavern, an old orc was drinking and telling his story; he was number E10086.
"I was born in Zuzupak, an orc city further north."
Beside him were the Cangzhou Assault Skeleton Soldiers, the genius boy Lao Sharen, and the three without fake medicine.
Cangzhou Assault Skeleton Soldier feels restless if he doesn't stream for a day; it's just a simple addiction.
Without fake medicine, the genius boy Lao Sharen had nothing better to do, so he broadcasted and chatted with the audience.
After all, this game is not simple, and they will play it no matter what. Since that's the case, they might as well broadcast it since they have nothing else to do.
This area was not included in the no-broadcast zone designated by Jiang Shuzhou, since Jiang Shuzhou had nothing to hide about the situation in the camp.
Even if this weren't a concentration camp, it would be legal within the Mage Alliance.
"Sir, what kind of place is Zuzu Park?"
The skeleton soldiers from Cangzhou were still somewhat polite, after all, they were pitiful people who had never had enough to eat at their age.
"Zuzupac is an orc city where spring is eternal, warm and bright. Neither the biting cold wind nor the terrifying monsters have ever frightened the people of Zuzupac."
"That was a warm land created by the orc swordsman."
The so-called Orc Sword Saint is just a legendary Orc warrior who only wields a sword.
"Then why...?"
The skeleton soldier from Cangzhou didn't continue speaking, but the old orc understood his meaning.
"There will always be ambitious people who will disrupt peace, and that's why Zuzu Parker perished."
"A tribal chief, who wanted to establish an empire, chose Zuzupak as his capital."
"I don't know the specifics, because I was hiding at home, trembling with fear at the time."
After a moment of silence, the old orc took a sip of his drink.
"Zuzu Parker implemented a food rationing system. Although I was never full, I was never hungry either. But after that day, everything changed."
He then began to tell the three of them about his turbulent and wandering life.
After Zuzupak was defeated, the old orc was exiled, and he and a group of others who were also exiled began their journey south.
Along the way, they encountered ice demons, met frost giants, escaped the hunt of ice wolves, and even witnessed a giant beast destroy a large tribe inhabited by millions of people.
After a long and arduous journey, and ten years of wandering, the old orc finally reached the south, arriving at the border of the Mage Alliance.
All his companions had long since died, and he alone remained in the world.
The three brothers were shocked after hearing this. No wonder the old orc used such elegant language; it turned out he came from a big city.
"So what is your purpose?"
"I just want to see what the Mage Alliance is like."
"Zuzu Parker's book says that the Mage Alliance is a wonderful country where people can eat as long as they work. The people there are well-fed and clothed, and they are human beings who do not eat their own kind."
"..."
All three of them fell silent; what else could they say?
"Don't be so heavy-hearted. It's all in the past, and I've already let it go."
The old orc laughed heartily, completely unconcerned.
"Come on, what are you waiting for? I'll vouch for you! You'll be a Level D personnel soon, and then you can do whatever you want."
"Let's drink freely and happily, we won't leave until we're completely drunk!"
"Okay then, I'll ask my wife for leave."
Even without fake medicine, he still stutters today.
Then, the three people and the beast drank until midnight.
"Impressive drinking capacity!"
"You're not bad either, you actually managed to compete with me."
The other two had long since fallen, but the genius teenager, Old Sharen, and E10086 remained steadfast.
"Bring ten more bottles, and make sure they're strong liquor!"
"No."
"What do you mean?"
The genius boy, Old Sharen, stared blankly at the old orc.
"It's nothing. After talking to you all, I feel much better."
Immediately afterwards, two soldiers walked over.
"It's time, let's go."
"What do you mean? Believe me or not, I'll shoot you all!"
The genius boy, Old Sharen, grabbed the thing next to him, intending to stop him.
"I did it voluntarily, so there's no need to make things difficult for them."
The old orc shook his head, then followed the soldiers.
The bewildered young genius, Old Sharen, was left behind.
"Damn it, I really..."
In the end, he said nothing and just kept drinking in silence.
It seems that not being able to get drunk is also a kind of suffering.

"Voluntary registration? Do you even know what you're doing?"
To be honest, in all the research Jiang Shuzhou has been doing, the test subjects have always been volunteers. He has never encountered a truly voluntary test subject before, which has left him completely baffled.
"I know, it's just death."
Wow? You seem pretty open-minded about it.
As the saying goes, if you're not afraid of death, what else is there to be afraid of?
Jiang Shuzhou had a lot of respect for this kind of person, after all, there weren't many people who were truly willing to die.
"Do you simply want to die, or have you come to terms with things and are planning to take a gamble?"
Jiang Shuzhou still needs to clarify this.
After all, if the other person simply wanted to die, and Jiang Shuzhou did everything in his power to make the experiment successful, and then the other person committed suicide afterward, wouldn't Jiang Shuzhou have suffered a huge loss?
"I've come to terms with it. What does it matter whether I live or die?"
So it's open for business.
