"Yes, Lord Chief, but to be more precise, it should be called a city-state or city-state." Wulu corrected, "This city-state is called 'City of Radiance', and like 'Dark Forest', it was created by the six major races. ”

Radiant City!

Dark Forest!

Six races co-create!

Hearing this, Liu Zhi couldn't help but suddenly guess the origin of these six races - the interstellar colonists who were driven here by hundreds of extraterritorial races eight thousand years ago!

I really didn't expect that they would make an incomparably wide forest in this crying abyss, and there were city-states in the forest!

It seems that in the past 8,000 years, they have still lived quite nourishingly, at least much better than the Yan people.

"I wonder what the city-states built by these interstellar civilizations will look like?"

"There is a shortage of materials in this crying abyss, the rules of the planet have changed, and the interstellar city-state ...... It's a bit unthinkable. ”

Liu Zhi was full of curiosity about this "Radiant City", but he knew very well in his heart that before going to Radiant City, the corresponding preparations must be done, otherwise his curiosity would not be satisfied, but he might have given the lives of the two of them.

More than two hours later, Liu Zhi learned the general situation of Radiant City from Wulu's mouth.

The city is located in the middle of the dark forest, about 30 kilometers away from here, the city lives in the city of the Guni people, the Nu people, the Dete people, the Hudi people, the Qingwu people, the total population of more than 900,000 people.

The Red People do not belong to the City of Radiance, they are distributed on the edge of the dark forest, they are strong, they are like the wind, their minions are weapons, and their reproductive ability is far superior to that of the five races.

The relationship between the Red people and the five tribes is very bad, it is not an exaggeration to say that they will not die, hundreds of years ago, they will attack the Radiant City once every year or two, men, women and children will not let go, the frequency has decreased in the last hundred years, but it is basically a small battle in five years, a big battle in ten years.

Although the Red People have never captured Radiant City since the two sides fought each other, they have never given up, and the reason why they are distributed in the fringes around the Dark Forest is to surround Radiant City and not let go of any race.

As for why the former ally became a mortal enemy, Wulu seems to know nothing, saying that these secrets are probably only known to a few people at the top, and even if it wants to explore, it has no channel at all.

The highest administrative body in Radiant City is similar to the "Senate Church" on Earth, with a total of seven seats, of which two are each held by the Guni and Nu, and three are divided among the rest of the races.

The members of the Senate are often the top powerhouses of all races, and even if they are not the strongest, their prestige is undoubtedly the first.

In addition, the senators were usually in important positions, and the two senators of the Guni tribe were one of the consuls in charge of civil affairs, and the other was the inspector in charge of finances and fortifications.

The Nu elders took over the two positions of army commander and guard chief.

The elders of the Dete tribe were in charge of science and technology and cultivation, the patriarchs of the Hu Di tribe were in charge of law, and the patriarchs of the Qingwu tribe were in charge of education.

The rest of the high-ranking official positions are also held by the strongest of the five clans.

As Wu Lu said, Radiant City pays attention to the law of the jungle, and the strong have certain privileges and various benefits, but this does not mean that civilians are living in dire straits.

Education and medical care in Radiant City are almost free, and food is quite cheap, as long as you work hard, it is not difficult to support yourself at all, and the rest of the money can be used to enrich and improve yourself, which is equivalent to giving everyone the opportunity to climb up.

However, the reason why people's destiny is different is not in their brains and abilities, but in their ambitions!

Some people work hard, some people are lazy and comfortable; Some people think for their families, countries and nations, and some people only think about themselves; Some people endure in every possible way, just to soar into the sky, and some people are afraid to move forward.

Hence the difference between strength and weakness.

After Liu Zhi understood these clearly, his interest in Radiant City undoubtedly increased a little, his eyes fell on Wulu's face, and he said: "There is one last question, what is the attitude of Radiant City towards people from the outside world?" ”

Wulu was stunned for a moment, and said in a deep voice: "I don't know much about this, it seems that since the construction of Radiant City, there has never been a person outside the six clans, and there are no relevant provisions in the law. ”

After hearing this, Liu Zhi couldn't help but fall into deep thought, he couldn't figure out the attitude of Radiant City towards foreign races, he would never dare to go easily, the difference between humans and extraterritorial races such as the Spirit Race, the Water Race, and the Rock Race was only a tail of less than three feet, and now eight thousand years have passed, and it is not impossible for the tail to disappear in evolution.

In case there are still people in the five clans who remember the events of 8,000 years ago, he and Shu Yue are afraid that they will not even have a chance to tell the difference, and they will be shot to death on the ground - if they have guns!

Just when he was in trouble, Wulu spoke again, it looked at Liu Zhi, and added seriously: "Lord Chief, you don't have to worry, although your appearance is different from any race, there are still many people who look and skin similar to you, these people are the descendants of the combination of different races, and there are all kinds of strange looks, everyone has long been surprised." ”

Liu Zhi was skeptical, and continued to ask, "Then what do you need to show to enter Radiant City?" For example, identity credentials and the like. ”

"Yes, yes, but this matter is easy to solve." Wulu said in a relaxed tone: "I have a lot of identity credentials, just help you change it." ”

A lot of credentials?

Liu Zhi looked Wulu up and down a few times, judging from its previous behavior of blocking the road and robbing, he was only afraid of a lot of bad lives at hand, these certificates, it is very likely that this is how he got it, but this guy looks innocent and harmless, Liu Zhi really doesn't know for a while, whether he should believe it or not.

"Where are the identity credentials you mentioned?" Yanagi asked.

"There, in my operator's room." Wulu pointed to the bone ball with a large hole.

Liu Zhi was a little strange, the door that Wulu jumped out of was not ten centimeters high, and there would be an identity certificate worn by a human inside? And a lot?

So how small are these credentials?

Strange and strange, Liu Zhi still took it over, peeled off the bone door and took a look, and found that there was indeed a mystery inside, there was a small seat like an operating table in the middle position, the chassis was stable, with a helmet and a buckle device, and a piece was recessed in the center of the operating table, which should be the place where the red crystal block was placed, and there was no other complicated design.

Yanagi had expected to see something like a supercomputer or a projector, but he didn't expect it to be so simple, and he guessed that the red crystal should be a power unit, a small seat to fix the body, and a helmet that might have the role of issuing commands in addition to replacing the skeleton's perspective.

Putting it down, it immediately burrowed into the bone door, and quickly dragged out a box the size of a little finger, which was not too large for its size and should be fine to lift, but it was dragged and seemed to be extremely laborious.

Liu Zhi saw that it clenched its teeth, dragged a step and shouted, obviously the strength of the milk was used, and in curiosity, he stretched out two fingers to help it pinch it.

As soon as the thing was in his hands, Liu Zhi felt that his fingertips sank, and the weight was indeed not light, estimated to be at least 100 catties.

After the box was placed on the ground, Wulu couldn't breathe, picked up the crystal block and began to cast a spell, and when the crystal came out of the red light, Wulu's eyebrows, suddenly revealed a dark red light curtain, and quickly covered the box.

The light curtain became larger and larger, and the surface of the box suddenly shone brightly, and it began to grow larger with the light curtain, but in a moment, it had already turned into the size of a table.

Liu Zhi's eyes widened, his expression was full of surprise, this kind of magic that transformed the size of an object, it was the first time he had seen it.

Shu Yue subconsciously rubbed her eyes, as if she couldn't believe what she was seeing.

Wulu walked to the front of the box, pressed a few buttons, and the box opened, and at the same time extended a long staircase, Wulu ran up the stairs, rummaged left and right in the box, and quickly took out two thin nameplates, hugged them and held them up to Liu Zhi, and asked, "Lord Chief, do you think these two pieces of vouchers are appropriate?" ”

Liu Zhi took it and took a look, this nameplate is somewhat similar to the ID card, the avatars on it are a man and a woman, they all look young, but the difference in appearance is too big, if you take it into the city, the blind can see that they are not themselves.

"Can this avatar be changed?" Liu Zhi asked with his head down.

"Yes, you can." Wulu nodded confidently, ran to the middle of the box with two nameplates, painted some liquid on the nameplate, wiped it with a cloth, and the avatar gradually faded, and soon there was only one outline left, and then it took out a pen, first glanced back at Liu Zhi and the two, and then scribbled and painted on the avatar, so fast, it was more like a convulsion than a painting. But as a result, within three minutes, Liu Zhi and Shu Yue's avatars jumped on the paper...... On the card, it is lifelike, like a photo.

This is not over, Wulu threw away the pen, and immediately sprayed a layer of mist on it, pasted a piece of paper of unknown material, and waited for half a minute, as soon as the paper was torn, it was actually completed The process of "old-fashioned" was completed, and the avatar looked very old.

The whole process is very long, in fact, it is only five or six minutes at most, Liu Zhi looked at the nameplate printed with his own portrait in his hand, and then looked at the innocent little dragon man, and there was only one thought in his heart - how many fake certificates have been made?

After getting the nameplate, Wulu jumped out of the box again, ran to the control room and stayed for a while, the bone ball suddenly dispersed, turning into hundreds of bones, it ran to Liu Zhi's feet, pointed to the pile of bones, and pleaded: "Lord Chief, can you please trouble me, help me put the operation room and these bones, as well as the equipment there, into the box." ”

Liu Zhi squatted down and said strangely: "The operation room and equipment are fine, but there are only a few other bones left, maybe not even a tenth, even if the skeleton is formed again, the combat power is estimated to be very limited, so there is no need to take it, right?" ”

Wulu pursed her mouth aggrievedly, and said in a low voice: "These bones are all collected by me with great difficulty, and a little left is a little, which is better than nothing." Please, Chief, help me load it up, okay? ”

It lifted its little head, and its eyes were filled with tears, and it almost grabbed the leg of Liu Zhi's trousers.

Although he said it sincerely, Liu Zhi still didn't agree, and continued: "Then tell me first, what is the purpose of you making so many bones and forming this skeleton?" Don't tell me it's just for robbery? ”

Wu Lu paused for a moment, and then nodded seriously: "Yes, it's just for robbery." ”

Liu Zhidao: "Then what is the purpose of your robbery?" ”

Wulu didn't want to think about it: "Earn money." ”

Liu Zhi almost fell, this answer obviously couldn't make him believe, being able to invent a detector, and the technology of combining skeleton mechas, which is not faster than robbing money? Even if you get a fake certificate, at least the risk is not so big, and the income is stable.

"Then what do you want to do after you earn money?" Liu Zhi still did not give up.

"Of course, it's to get better bones, make better skeletons, and then continue to rob." The little dragon man looked serious.

“…………”

Liu Zhi was speechless for a long time, and only said in a half-loud voice: "That's it, I'll provide you with better bones, but you have to work for me, I can guarantee that your efficiency in collecting bones will be much faster than robbing, how about it?" ”

"Work?" Wulu said strangely: "No need to do this, I am already a prisoner of the leader, isn't it natural to obey your arrangement?" ”

And what's going on?

Liu Zhi twisted his eyebrows: "Why didn't you say it just now?" ”

Wulu scratched his head: "I forgot, this is a normal thing in our Radiant City, anyone who is captured by others in the field is counted as a prisoner of the other party, and must pay a certain ransom to exchange for freedom, if you can't pay it, you can dispose of it at will by the other party, every time I catch this kind of captive, I sell them to the Academy of Science and Technology and the Education Department, these two places need a lot of workers, and the price is usually not low." ”

Liu Zhi stroked his forehead and sighed, even if there is such a strange regulation in Radiant City, the most bizarre thing is the way Wulu deals with it, there is such a bunch of free manpower and material resources, not only do they keep it to help themselves make money, but they even sell it to a messy administrative agency? The important thing is that it's still selling well?

Liu Zhi finally understood why Wulu was so fond of robbery.

"So these identity credentials are all on those captives?" Liu Zhi asked again.

"yes." Wulu nodded.

"If they go to reissue, wouldn't it be easy to be exposed?" Liu Zhi was puzzled.

"No, the Academy of Science and Technology and the Education Department paid for their redemption, which is equivalent to buying out their freedom. The more money they pay, the longer they work, and during the time they are employed, they only have a job number and no citizenship, so they are not eligible for re-application. Wulu explained in detail.

Liu Zhi was dumbfounded, Radiant City is this forbidden to go out in disguise? Or is there too little labor at the bottom? Or is it to raise people's awareness of danger?

He felt that he couldn't understand something, and he was afraid that he could only know what it was when he entered the city.
