The third chapter of the text is the city of madmen

As for it, make such a huge city gate?

After repelling the gang of guys who wanted to block the road and rob, the group successfully arrived in front of the city, and the first thing they saw was a tall steel city wall, at least more than fifty meters high, and they didn't know who was guarding such a high wall.

The city walls are so high, the city gate above is naturally not so small, even if it is not as small as the city wall, it is not so small, the huge gate of twenty meters high, at a glance, you know that the tonnage of this thing is not small.

Luckily, there's a small door down there for smaller units to pass through, otherwise Luke would have wondered if these guys would have enough energy to supply such a huge steel city.

And without exception, there was a thick layer of red material attached to the walls and gates, and except for the small door that often opened and closed, which looked normal, everything else looked like it was made entirely of that red thing.

When passing through the city gate, Luke and the others were stopped by the barricade at the door, and it seemed that they had to charge something to enter the city, and they could vaguely see a price list next to it, but most of it had been covered by red substance, and the handwriting was not clear at all.

"How many people? Not? An old-sounding voice came from the room next to the gate, and then everyone saw a man with a hunched body and a special helmet coming out of it, and was a little surprised to see the four speeding cars, as if they were surprised that they had not been killed by the robbers outside the door.

How many people? Luke didn't seem to have carefully counted how many people there were in his house now, so he had to turn around and glance at the car, wanting to temporarily count how many ship girls and the deep sea there were.

"Four cars, one for fifteen thousand Rans." Before Luke could finish counting, the voice standing next to the console rang out again.

Well, well, there is no problem by car, this price is cheaper than the parking fee of the previous spaceship, ah, bah, cheap yarn, so a large spaceship only charges 50,000 lances, and now it is just four small flying cars that charge 60,000, which is very simple.

But what else can I say, pay the money, anyway, the money is easy to come by, if you want to go in without paying the money, I'm afraid you will have to get into trouble with the star thieves in this place.

He didn't come to eliminate these star thieves, he just came to find someone to buy a star map, and it was too big to make trouble. Now it is natural to honestly pay the money and enter the city, transfer the money to the bracelet handed by the gatekeeper, and the barricade in front of him has also opened.

"It looks so eerie in here." Looking at the dim streets, although it was daytime, there seemed to be no light in the whole city, and the lighting facilities on the road were almost all covered by those red substances, so the emitted was also a hazy red light.

It looked like the streets of the entire city were covered in a bloody smell, and it didn't just look like Luke could already smell the smell of the air through his helmet at this time.

Well, this is definitely not a good place, I hope I can get a star map here, otherwise, I will have to go to the next city to see.

"Hey, Luke, can you find a place here to clean up the ship's equipment, those red things are disgusting attached to the jet ports and the ship's equipment." Yamashiro frowned and looked around, trying to find a clean place where she could take out her armor and maintain it, otherwise the red stuff would not have been able to fly on the jet port.

"Okay, bear with me, you can clean it up on the ship when you return to space, it's useless to be in a hurry." Luke was also worried, he wanted to find someone on the road to ask where the black market was, but now there was no one on the street, so how could he ask for directions?

Would it be okay to sell him a map of the city?

It's a pity that this is just a thought, although Luke can feel that there is not a single living person on this street, but those guys are all hiding in the shadows of the buildings, and there are some alley entrances, and after seeing their flying cars coming, they immediately ran away without a trace, and they were treated like big demons.

What's going on like this? It doesn't make sense to what he's here for, can't he just keep wandering around the streets?

There were no shops on either side of the street at this time, and all the billboards and other things that had been hung up had been attached to the red substance at this time, and they could not be seen in their original appearance.

It was not a way to go on like this, and walked along two streets, all of which were all of this virtue, which made Luke wonder how many people in the city were still alive, and gestured towards Fuso, stopping the speeding car, and Luke got out of the car and walked towards a room with a half-hidden door.

There wasn't too much red on this door, and it was obvious that there should still be someone here, so Luke wanted to ask the other party if he knew where the black market was, and even if he didn't know where the black market was, he could tell him where to get the star map.

Knock knock! Wrapped in a red substance, Luke knocked on the metal door and made two dull movements, not too loud and directly carried through the whole street along the foul air, Luke also heard the sound of Xi Xi Suo coming from the surrounding buildings, it sounded like there were still a lot of living people.

"Anyone?" There was also a voice behind the door in front of him, and Luke was sure that he had heard correctly, there was definitely someone inside the ajar building.

"Ahem!" After a loud noise, Luke heard several heavy coughs coming from inside, and a wheezing sound like pulling a bellows, sounding like a terminally ill patient.

Frowning, now this situation here, if someone really gets sick or something, Luke will not think it is strange, I have learned from Elsa before, the living environment of the Yaka people is not much different from that of humans, and now this situation, no matter how you think about it, it will not be a suitable environment for the Yaka people to live.

Coupled with the fact that the red substance on the street at the moment doesn't look too thick, it's not as good as the city wall, and this thing must have only popped up in recent years.

If it had been there from the beginning, it would not have been possible to build the entire city in the first place.

"Who are you!?"

After pushing open the door and taking half a step, Luke could already see the situation in the room, it was not too big, but it was not small, there were more than a dozen tables scattered in it, several of which had been smashed into tatters, and the rest were crawling with those red things.

In addition, there is a bar directly opposite the entrance, and it seems that this was previously a bar or a restaurant.

The man who spoke up was wearing the same hazmat suit as Luke, with a somewhat torn helmet on his head, and another person next to him, the one who breathed like a bellows.

At this time, while panting, he held a gun and looked at Luke standing in the doorway vigilantly.

"I'm from outside, why is this city so virtuous?" Lifting a broken chair next to him, looking at the red gelatinous substance all over it, Luke didn't have the heart to sit down, why did he sit down? Touching this thing, it's not thought that the big aunt is coming.

"Outside!? Did you come in from the outside! How did it come about!? Is there a ship!? Hearing the voice coming from Luke's translator, this guy couldn't even care about the weird synthesized sound, and immediately took two steps forward, as if he wanted to grab Luke's hand.

"Ah, I came in from outside, I came in in by flying car, and I was charged a fee to enter the city." Raising an eyebrow, he couldn't see what this guy's expression was, Luke didn't say it all, anyway, they did drive a speeding car into the city.

"This ...... All right. As soon as he heard Luke say the word "flying car", the other party seemed to be deflated, stumbled back two steps, and was supported by the man with the gun behind him so that he did not fall.

It can be seen that the news of the absence of a spaceship is a big blow to this guy, could it be that these guys are all trapped here?

It shouldn't be, I saw those robbers outside the city before, how do you think those people can't live outside the city, right?

"Do you know where the black market is?" But none of this has much to do with him, and what he wants to know most now is where the black market is, because he can buy star maps.

"Black market?" Hearing Luke ask, both of them turned their heads to look at him, and if Luke's eyes could see through, he would be able to see through the two ridiculous looks on the heads of these two guys.

"Hah! Now there is still a black market in the city, and there is not even a normal supermarket. He said with some grief and indignation, and coughed twice fiercely.

Well, hearing this, Luke had a bad premonition in his heart, yes, the black market is gone, I knew that I wouldn't have run out of the previous city, although there will be people looking for trouble, but it's still a normal place.

"The guy who controls this city now has long gone crazy, the whole city is closed, and no one else can get out of this hellish place except for their marauding team!" Waving his arms, the man screamed in grief and indignation, venting the resentment in his heart.

Uh, "Excuse me." "Luke doesn't have the heart to listen to this guy's tirade, just ask the others if they know if there are any star maps in the nearby star fields in this city.

"Hey! Where are you going! There's no way you're going to escape from this city! Impossible! Seeing Luke turn around and leave, the one shouted loudly, causing a flurry of coughs.

Well, it seems that not only the city lord here is crazy, it seems that even the guy just now was driven crazy. Chapter 3: The City of the Maniac
