Chapter 15 The City of the Black Tower
Chapter 15
Su Yuan never thought he was so smart, much better than the people in this world, or something like that. But he knew that he could see at least farther than the people in this wasteland. Because his thinking had not changed into wasteland thinking, and had not exhausted all his wisdom for survival. He could also think about some problems that others had no time to imagine. For example, that it.
Of course, he only had some ideas now, and the specific results still needed a lot of clues to support him. Although Ethan didn't know what Su Yuan wanted to do, he still chose to support him. After a year of training and fighting, they had already established a stable enough trust relationship.
The Black Tower is not far from the valley where they are. This is also for safety reasons. At least there will be no large-scale orc groups here. The two of them took about a day to reach the place where the world could finally be called a city.
Confusion and disorder, this is Su Yuan’s first feeling. As a young man from a peaceful era and a powerful country, he felt this way when he saw the city in front of him.
The construction of a city is very complex and complex. Generally speaking, countless people with top talents need to work together, and nearly countless problems need to be planned, and finally it is gradually built by the efforts of several generations. But the city in front of me is a pile of messy garbage.
In addition to the center of the city, there are several decent buildings. There are other chaotic and disorderly shanty towns everywhere. There are all kinds of stacking and interspersed. Su Yuan feels that an unfamiliar person will be lost when he walks in.
However, the defense system around the city is still OK. A whole circle of walls composed of various spliced steel plates, barbed wire mesh and steel pipes surrounded the entire city in the middle with almost no blind spots. Outside the city, there are also a large number of retail investors relying on the city to survive.
It was not until I saw this city that Su Yuan truly felt what the wasteland world looked like. Those ragged residents with fierce lights in their eyes from time to time. Those thugs who were holding weapons and fighting around the city were unscrupulous. The screams, crying, and scolding echoed everywhere. The screams, crying, and scolding began to pour into Su Yuan's ears hundreds of meters away.
However, Su Yuan quickly diverted his sight. Because as the distance got closer, the black tower was bringing him a more shocking visual experience.
There is no doubt that it is a very large building with a polyhedral geometry. It is about fifty meters in diameter. It doesn't sound big, but if you walk in, you can really feel that huge pressure because it's too high.
Su Yuan had never seen the Empire State Building and didn't know what the tallest building on earth looked like. He also had no feeling about the height of the building in front of him, because he couldn't see the top at all. The so-called going straight into the sky is the scene in front of him.
Ethan had obviously been here more than once and had no feelings about it. He took Su Yuan to the door, and the two guards stopped them. The other party looked at them unscrupulously. The guns in his hands were even more unconcealed. It showed a kind of naked greed, a look of seeing the fat sheep.
"Wild Hunter? Do you know the rules? The charges have now doubled."
One of them asked. However, Ethan ignored him at all. He took out a small cloth bag, which contained various orc teeth or other iconic bones and organs. He didn't even look at it, and threw them all to the other party. When the guard opened it, he was stunned for a moment. Then Xun gestured to his companion, and the other party seemed to understand something. Xun opened the door and let them in.
Su Yuan walked in through Ethan for no reason.
"What's this? Charge tolls?"
"That's right. But we don't have to pay. There is an independent monetary system here, and neither of us has. The orcs' iconic organs, such as werewolf's fangs and snake man's venom, can be used to exchange meritorious deeds. Merit can be exchanged for currency in the city, or directly exchanged for food, weapons, etc. And merit is also the main way to improve status. For those lower-level warriors, those things are much more important than money. At least ten people saw the scene just now, and those two people would not survive tonight."
Su Yuan: "..." Esan, you are also a dark-hearted character.
Walking through this messy city street, their two strange faces soon attracted countless people to watch. All kinds of dark, greedy, and unknown eyes were scanning the two from various angles. This made Su Yuan feel uncomfortable all over. And many of them were obviously malicious.
The continuous battles of a year made Su Yuan's intuition extremely keen. His instinctively tense all over his body, and his hands were pressed on the pistol at his waist.
"Don't be nervous, shooting is not allowed in the city. They just want to irritate you. Follow me and we're almost here."
Su Yuan took a few deep breaths, barely suppressing the discomfort in his heart, and followed Ethan through the shanty town. After paying the toll again, they entered the city center, which was the real building complex.
This place is undoubtedly the place where the "upper society" lives. No matter where it is, as long as someone lives, this kind of hierarchy will inevitably occur. The order here is obviously much more stable. You can constantly see patrol teams wearing some kind of uniform. There are also some people angry on the faces of pedestrians coming and going.
The two of them walked through the center of the town and arrived at the innermost level of the city. At this time, Su Yuan noticed that there was actually an isolation belt from the center of the city.
It was an annular isolation belt with a radius of about fifty meters. There was nothing in the middle, and there was a circle of watchtowers, and there were gunmen standing on it.
