Chapter Ninety-Nine: The Slums

Phil put the gold coins from the men's storage rings in two bags, one bag containing a hundred gold coins and the other bag containing about four hundred, which were all Phil's possessions now.

Use the 100 gold coins to bribe the guards who will stop you, and the remaining 400 gold coins will be used as funds for Phil to build his foundation in Amples.

Phil has no idea about money, and he doesn't know what the price of this Amples is. Now we can only take one step at a time.

"Morgana......" Phil turned around and crouched down to ask Morgana, "Is a hundred gold coins enough?"

At this time, Webber had already put Morgana down, and when she was in a hurry before, Morgana was weak and tired after walking a few steps, so Webber forcibly took her in his arms and took her away. Now it's too noticeable, put Morgana down and let her go on her own.

"That's too much...... Morgana startled her when she heard Phil say, "just ten gold coins and it's no problem at all......"

Ten gold coins? so little?

Phil was a little puzzled, is the price of such a big city so low?

"Ten gold coins is so little?"

"Ten gold coins is a lot...... My mother only had three gold coins a month......"

Phil nodded quietly and quietly poured fifty gold coins into the second large bag.

When he heard Morgana's answer, it immediately became clear that this should be the gap between the rich and the poor. In Jimenez's time, there were a lot of gold coins in that small place......

Moreover, the children I met at Mr. Goering's house were also very poor, and Phil really didn't know much about them, so he could take advantage of this time to get to know each other.

After Phil finished speaking, he quickly stood up and followed the caravan that was about to open the distance.

The caravan didn't pay attention to Phil's men, and the guards didn't pay attention to the caravan.

"Eh, stand there. ”

Just as Phil was about to sneak into the city, the lazy voice of the guards was heard.

"What's the matter?"

Phil and the others stood still and asked the guard.

"Where did it come from?"

The guard leaned on his spear and squinted his eyes and asked as he looked at Phil carefully.

"Other cities. ”

"What city?"

"Al Oder. ”

"What kind of city is that? Why haven't I heard of it. ”

"It's just a small city. ”

With a slight smile, Phil pulled out a bag of gold coins from the storage ring and handed it over very naturally.

"Oh, that's right. ”

The guard saw Phil's eyes clearly, weighed the weight of the gold coins in his hand, and thought for a moment.

"Come in, come in, don't make trouble!"

His tone returned to a languid tone, and he put the gold coin bag into his storage bag and waved his hand.

"Of course. ”

Phil thanked him gently, and naturally led Yun Ge and the others into the city.

The other soldier stared at Phil a few more times, but didn't say anything. Although it looks strange, these people are likely to be some big man who tied up a few women back. The woman among them was disheveled, but she was exceptionally beautiful, and it was probably the woman they had tied back.

Since you are willing to give them gold coins, it is not too much of a block.

Phil breathed a sigh of relief in his heart, he didn't expect it to pass so easily. It wasn't his own money spent, and the guards didn't make it difficult.

Walking through the city gates, the city is very different from the town of Brell.

Not only was the city bustling with residents and caravans, but the view was much wider, and the buildings in the city were mostly made of wood, and at first glance Phil found no houses made of other materials.

Among them were a priest with a haughty face dressed in white robes.

In the distance, Phil could see a magnificent castle built on a hill, this castle was made of stone, the exterior was painted with a silver-white coat, and a huge cross was built on the top of the castle, and the cross was hung with a purple flag.

"It can't be Lord Clay's castle, is it?"

Webb whispered in Morgana's ear.

"How is it possible," Morgana sneered, "this is Duke Reggie's castle, and the king's own uncle, and Lord Crowe is not worthy of carrying his shoes." ”

"Take us to where you said first. ”

Phil whispered.

He didn't know who the dead archer was talking about, so he settled down and asked Morgana about the situation in the city.

At first glance, Phil was very satisfied with the city. The soldiers are very lazy, the center of power is far away from the city, and the core forces should basically be gathered in that castle, and those who are stronger in doing things themselves will be slower.

"Okay. ”

Morgana replied crisply.

In this way, Morgana and the others walked around these buildings, without bothering them along the way, and avoided a priest when she saw her. But basically, when you meet someone, you always look at them strangely.

Phil noticed this, and now urgently needed to hide their faces and make them as normal as possible.

Especially yourself.

Although these wooden houses do not seem extravagant or luxurious, each one is neat and clean, in stark contrast to where Phil and the others are now.

Phil was shocked to see what he saw, and he was reluctant to take another step forward.

Behind these wooden houses, the road crosses three filthy rivers and leads to a slum that smells everywhere. This area is supposed to be in the southeast corner of Amples.

The jumble of stones was a rough patch of stones, and Phil couldn't put on the shoes of the archers, and now he was walking barefoot, and he felt like he was doing a foot massage. But that's not the most intractable part, the road is lined with a foul stench of excrement, barely made of sheds, all of which are dirty.

And the inhabitants here have not decreased at all, it is still the afternoon, it should be almost evening, it is still working time, and many, many poor people in ragged clothes and thin wood come and go, not knowing what to do. There were a lot of people lying on the side of the road, and they couldn't see exactly what it looked like, and they were covered with dirt.

Phil also noticed that there were a lot of dirty faces in the shadows of the shanty huts, and they were staring at Phil and his party. Their eyes were not quite the same as they had been when they first met Morgana, and each of them had little life in them, all filled with numbness and sluggishness.

There was even an old man who defecated on the street.

"You've been here before?"

Phil asked Morgana with wide eyes.

"Yes......"

Morgana noticed Phil's incredulous expression and replied timidly.

"We were driven away from other places, and we didn't want to stay in the place where we were doing our work, so we had to come here to play...... Because no one wants to come here. ”

"Don't you think it'......"

Phil was halfway through his words when he got stuck in his throat, not knowing what to say.

In Phil's memory, he had never seen such a scene, whether it was in Raphael or in the town of Breel, he saw ...... On the bright side.

Phil was a little speechless.

Yun Ge and the others were also shocked, they had never seen this in the Boundless Land, although the poor place in the Boundless Land was similar to here, but the cleanliness was still good, and this place really refreshed the three views of Phil and several people.

Morgana grabbed Webb's clothes tightly.

Phil's mouth opened and closed twice, not knowing what to say. Morgana, this little girl, is really pitiful, and these people.

Phil won't take it any further, maybe in the future, definitely not now.

"Let's go, let's go, we can't live here. ”

Phil shook his head and said.

"Where are we going?"

Morgana asked.

"Where is the old man Clay you said?"

"There it is. ”

Morgana said as she pointed in one direction.

"Then let's go this way, find a house to live in first, I should have enough gold coins in my hand. ”

Phil shook his head and said.

Then he walked in the opposite direction to Clay's house. The city is big enough that it's not the kind where everyone is the same. But Morgana works at Clay's house, so it's better to stay away for fear of being recognized.

On the way, just ask the kind of thugs who are fooling around in the amples and ask for news, and find a house to settle down into.

Today's trip with Morgana is a glimpse of the dark side of the city.
