Chapter 5: Deadwood City
Due to the recent increase in cult activities, the Supreme Council has issued a strict order to all cities to enter the city.
All inhabitants are required to identify Cultists with the Surveillance Crystals delegated by the High Council.
Joxiu is a shadow thorn, and this profession is not technically an evil profession, so the crystal light does not react much, and it goes smoothly.
But that fanatical second-order sacrifice was different, as a dark sacrifice, it was impossible for him to pass through the supervision of the city gate.
Just in case, Joshua asked the swordsman to stay with him.
Both men were outrageously faithful believers who believed that Joshua was the Seventh Apostle, even if he later said something that seemed to be in the service of the gods.
If the front is not good, it does not mean that Joshu has no way to let them into the city.
Deadwood City is a border city, and compared with those big cities in the interior, it is not very rich, and it is quite famous in the surrounding area.
The name Deadwood City has two origins, one is that it is surrounded by a large number of dead trees, and the other is a local specialty, which is made from these withered black mantong through a special way, Deadwood wine.
However, there is also a legend in Deadwood City, which is said to be a legendary powerhouse from the wilderness.
He misses the deadwood wine in his hometown and deliberately uses the best technique to transform the environment, so that Hei Mantong can grow here, and the brewing method is also passed on to the local chamber of commerce.
And this chamber of commerce, as a result, has made a lot of money, from the small chamber of commerce in the past, and now there are his branches in the vicinity.
At present, there are city guards roaming around the city, because there have been many cult incidents recently, which have caused panic among the people and unstable public order.
As a result, these city guards can only work hard but do not gain much, and often have a black face.
After taking most of the money from the two of them, Josius first asked the priest to relieve his weakness with 50 silver coins, and then spent 30 silver coins to let a street homeless man find a female branch girl.
This female branch girl seduces a child for a small price and helps him buy a black fox mask.
Putting on the black fox mask, Joxiu went to the weapon shop and bought three tabula rasa, which cost him a total of 300 silver coins.
At the same time, he went to the equipment shop to buy some items that he thought he needed, and now he didn't have much money, about four or five hundred silver coins, and he didn't know if he could buy the rest of the things.
When he was almost ready, Josh made his way around the bustling city and into the slums.
Unlike in the city, the slum is thriving on the surface, but it is diffused with a **depraved atmosphere, which is unique to every gutter.
Along the way, Yoxiu has been entangled by many street girls, and he has also knocked out the claws that sneaked into his wallet a few times.
You can see a lot of homeless people on both sides of the street, these are driven out by the homeless forces in the city, and begging for a month's money here is not necessarily comparable to a day in the city area.
Every profession, no matter how humble and lowly, has its class way, and it is not easy for the poor to survive.
This is also the reason why the more than forty people who heard Joshua say that it may be a surprise to be a poor citizen.
According to the memories of his previous life, Joxiu came to the tavern in the slums, and as soon as he entered, a thick musty smell stimulated Joshou's nerves, and he subconsciously wrinkled his nose.
In the Qilun Continent, the taverns in the slums are often places for these poor people to vent their stresses, so they are very noisy.
"Pompie, I heard you've been doing a lot lately? With Boss Feken, I guess you'll be able to get out of the slum in a few years. ”
"Doza, what are you talking about, I'm just doing some hard work under the boss, but it's just a change of head."
"Tsk, Boss Feken is a professional, better than the previous pickpocket, isn't he just a small dock foreman, that's called Boom."
"Also, with the boss, although you can't earn a few gold coins a year, it's much better than following that peel."
"A few gold coins ......"
The speaker's tone was sour, and the people in the slums might not be able to own a single gold coin in their lifetime, but the other party casually said that it was a few a year.
After thinking about it, can I also catch the line of a professional? At this time, when he saw Yoxiu, his mind became flexible, should he ......
"Huh?"
Everyone stopped moving and whispered when they saw Josiu come in, and some seemed to notice Joshou's youth and began to laugh.
"Yo, boy, your mask is pretty good, borrow it to play with uncle."
A big man laughed, full of alcohol, and reached out to take off Joxiu's mask.
In the tavern in the slum, a similar routine is not much fun for them, and many people are heckled when they see this scene.
For someone like Joshua who pretends to be a ghost, it brings joy to the tavern people.
Dozha was about to whistle, but was suddenly covered by Pompie, and Dozha subconsciously resisted.
Pompie said coldly: "You look at it and then talk about it." ”
Yoo Xiu snorted coldly, the white light flashed, and the hand stretched out by the big man was cut off by Yo Xiu with a dagger!
"Professional!"
Everyone in the tavern exclaimed, for those of them at the bottom, no professional could be provoked.
For a moment, they immediately fell silent, lowered their heads, and didn't dare to look at Yoxiu again.
Yoxiu glanced around, came to the front desk and sat down, and said coldly: "Four bottles of Bailang wine, one bottle of deadwood wine!" ”
After the boss knew that Joxiu was a professional, he asked his subordinates to bring these five bottles of wine as quickly as possible.
They are a slum tavern, but as the owner, they are still somewhat private.
When he got what he wanted, Joxiu turned around and left, and as for the wine money, the poor people present would pay for it, it was an unwritten rule, as a price for offending the professional!
These five bottles of wine are very expensive for them, but they are not bad compared to saving their lives.
Doza looked at Pompie gratefully, if it weren't for the other party's reminder, his savings for the next year might have been wasted.
Yoxiu is still in a good mood, because he doesn't have much money now, and it's a bit reluctant to buy those bottles of wine, and he may even have to put down his money and let the boss discount it.
The appearance of that big man was not too surprising to him, you know, the price of these five bottles of wine was almost 500 silver coins, which was almost enough to catch up with the weapon he bought.
There are a few streets around the slum, and this detour method is also very particular.
According to the strategy of a player in his previous life, he came to a dead end, arranged them in the shape of a five-pointed star, and placed deadwood wine at the top.
After doing this, Joxiu left, and after about three hours, he came back to the alley, and the five bottles of wine were gone.
Taking about three steps back from the same place where he had placed the wine, Joshua peeled off a note from the corner of the wall with an address written on it.
Joxiu smiled, he had only heard about it before, but now that he tried it, it was true.
This is the secret contact method of the Deadwood Chamber of Commerce that sells Deadwood Liquor, and using this method to contact is all underground.
It is said that you can also get membership-level treatment with this method, and you can get a 10% discount on any transaction.
With this line, the entry of the two followers into the city was settled.
Next......
"Culler, I hope you don't let her get hurt in any way, or I'll let you know that death is actually the most merciful gift of the gods."
The Fraudster is a very special class, not a class dedicated to combat, at least as it seems in the early days.
However, once advanced to the end of the Fraudster's class, the Fate Manipulator's Joshu knew that the Fraudster profession was very powerful, almost as strong as a bug.
Even if it is a second-order advanced class, even if there are not many combat skills, it is unbelievably weird, even more unimaginable than Shadow Thorn, a warlock known as the thief.
Whether it's leveling up, or skills, everything is special to the extreme.
The night in the Qilun Continent is often the time when the shadows are most active.
Especially the recent heresy incidents have been boiling, and even in a border city like Deadwood City, patrols at night have been unprecedentedly intensified, and they are a little more rigorous than during the day.
Many wandering homeless people will also be detained for investigation once they are discovered, and most of the people who steal chickens and dogs are cautious and cautious, and most of them are caught, and the night of the catastrophe is no longer a paradise for thieves.
But for Joshu, whose secondary class is a shadow thorn, it's nothing.
With a ghost step of up to 40 points, Joshu can easily avoid surveillance under the crystal ball search that immobilizes the wizard mage Amaterasu's eye.
The garrison of the Fumin area was far stricter than that of other places, and it was not easy for Yoxiu to avoid it.
After using a few small stones to make a few of his peers suffer, Josh managed to get into Cooler's house without any problems.
"Rey!" Thinking of this girl who depended on him for his life, Joxiu couldn't help but step up a little.
