Demon Lord 3

Chapter 1939 Bounty

We obtained a pseudo-world manual, which gives us some understanding of this world. We can think of it as a world of small families, where the large world has large families, and the pseudo-world is mostly made up of small families, but it's not a small world. The first page shows the shape of an energy stone, bursting with powerful energy that we can absorb. This is what we usually spend money on and use. The second page talks about being people-oriented. We can't do anything that harms anyone's interests, except for those of higher level. There are actually quite a lot of discriminatory people in this world. People with low abilities are often harmed by those with high abilities. This situation is often unavoidable. To avoid these things, we can only continuously improve our strength. This is the way to motivate people. Actually, I think this is a good method. Those who want to be lazy are forced to exercise. There are different small families here, but they are not the leaders; they are merely driven by profit. To make these small families powerful, there needs to be a constant stream of younger generations in different fields. If the younger generations of a small family are not strong enough, it will slowly decline. People from the Great World can also go to the Pseudo-World. People who shared the same surname as them in the Great World can join small families here, and they are quite welcome. Under these circumstances, the chances of returning to the Great World and to the peak of this world are very high. It serves as a stepping stone. The third page contains bounties. You can capture different criminals or different creatures. You will use this energy to replenish your own energy. It's not directly absorbed; you have to wait for the allocation results before you can receive your own energy. It's like I have a dollar in my energy stone, but if I retrieve it, I have to take the bounty with me. I might get 50 cents, and the rest goes to the world. It seems like a disadvantageous situation, but it's actually quite safe. There's a fixed amount; you do only what's on the bounty, guaranteeing the reward will reach the recipient. If you go it alone, you bear all the risk yourself. Many people use these insurance methods to avoid risk, and many take risks to quickly earn energy stones. People ask for my opinion, and by this point, there's already a significant disagreement. The conservatives believe we must use the bounty method, because many dangers come with it. If we accidentally fall into a trap, without these insurance policies, even if we have three heads and six arms, it's useless. I'm standing on the side of the strong... The other side believes the money should be split 50/50. They argue that if there's immediate danger after a long day of hard work, what's the point of the insurance policy? At most, it benefits the beneficiary. The policy only covers injuries if no one is seriously hurt; it doesn't mean the person can be brought back to life. Wu Luansen interrupted our conversation: "Everyone is right, but we can't see it in black and white. In this situation, we need to consider a third option: we can work independently or use bounty posters. These are updated daily, and many people regularly do the tasks, but many large tasks remain unfinished. These dangers are also covered by insurance. For these kinds of cases, we can either do them ourselves or use the bounty, depending on our judgment. For the small, routine tasks, we can do them ourselves to ensure no risk. For the larger tasks, we can handle them ourselves." "We can also let those people take the risks. Not everything is black and white. I remember that was the first thing you heard when you came to our little world!" Suddenly, my thoughts drifted back to a few years ago. Wu Luansen's little world was just like that. The sentence that impressed me the most was, "Not everything is black and white." Those events and cases are still vivid in my mind. After listening, we all nodded, wanting to see what the cases were like. Wu Luansen also showed an example, a real case that happened in that world. It is said that one day, a person suddenly disappeared into thin air and could not be found no matter how hard they searched. It was thought that this person went to the big world through some kind of formation. Powerful people tried to contact the big world, but in the end, they did not get a reply. The people in the big world seemed to know nothing and had no clue.
