Chapter Fifty-Seven: This Collapsed World
Since Yang Cheng entered the city with the No. 30 people of the white team, the whole person's face has not been good.
At the beginning, I was in prison, and I didn't know what kind of world it was outside, although I knew that second-level citizens who couldn't do magic had no status, but now I look at it, and the reality is a hundred times more terrifying than guess.
The outer city, where second-class citizens live, is more appropriate to be a slum dump than a residence.
I just inspected for about half an hour, and the murderer was not found, but he educated 2 children who stole and punished 5 men for robbery, and scolded 7 women who betrayed their flesh and bodies, and of course saved 1 drunk and sad ghost who was about to hang himself.
This slum is so chaotic, in order to survive, the residents here burn, kill, rob, steal and sell almost everything they can do, compared to the simple killing and plundering of the prison, the outside is in a sense more terrible.
Listening to the explanations of the members of the white team, Yang Cheng basically understood why it was like this.
This Seth Kingdom magic is for the nobles to be in a high position, and in order to consolidate the power of the kingdom, basically only the education of the nobles is promoted from top to bottom. As for these so-called Level 2 citizens, they are all discarded as garbage. So far, not even half of the many Level 2 citizens can read.
This is not the most terrible, under the long-term exclusion of education, these second-level citizens have basically been completely enslaved, they are almost to the point where they are instructed and ordered by the magic nobles, and without the decision of the nobles, these citizens are simply to the point where they can't survive.
What's even more exaggerated is that after a long period of closed thinking, these Level 2 citizens don't even know that there is a country outside Seth, even the idea of escaping is directly strangled in the cradle by the magic nobles.
It can be said that the entire Seth country has completely collapsed, and as the king of Seth, he is a wandering hero who likes to act chivalrous, no matter what point of view, this is definitely a fucked country.
And Yang Cheng, knowing that this is just a copy of the worldview setting, but from the heart, he still feels a sadness that goes deep into the bone marrow. Even Xiaokai has been sighing, it's so good that he wasn't born in this country!
Of course, the task still has to be done, no matter how much he sighs, Yang Chengdu has not forgotten the original intention of coming to Amber City.
In order to prevent being targeted, since entering the outer city, Yang Cheng did not dare to separate the members of the white team to investigate. Ever since he learned about the current situation of this kingdom, he felt that these people under his command who were greedy for life and afraid of death were no longer so, after all, compared to other Level 2 citizens, they at least had a good wish for the future.
Perhaps, these people will really be the hope of this country in the future.
Just as the group was still looking for clues about the murderer, they heard a scream close to them, which immediately attracted everyone's attention.
Yang Chengyi gritted his teeth and led everyone to hurry to the accident site, but unfortunately, at the location of the accident, only a pile of meat and blood stains were left on the ground, although there was a living man trembling beside him, but looking at his appearance, he was obviously mentally broken, and he couldn't ask anything.
"Fuck it!"
Yang Cheng couldn't help but scold, he was really angry. Even if this is just a copy of the original world, at least they are still living flesh and blood, no matter how ignorant they are, they don't have to suffer this kind of treatment.
Just as he was about to lead everyone to continue looking for clues, he only heard Xiao Kai condense and say, "Big brother, someone is coming over there!" β
Following the direction pointed by Xiao Kai, I saw a man and a woman walking not far from the street, and the woman was still holding it in her hand, which seemed to be a pet.
When you get closer, you can see clearly, the woman's white dress and white skirt are graceful and luxurious, with wavy curly hair, the man's eardrum armor, even his eyes are hidden in it, and he has a long sword at his waist, which looks a little heroic. As for the pet, it was actually a person, but the person had an ugly face, a hunched back, and a face full of pus, and his appearance was really terrifying.
Without waiting for Yang Cheng to ask, the woman over there said loudly with an extremely arrogant attitude: "Ah, what a wonderful night, I can't imagine that the organization that doesn't know whether to live or die will actually send someone to send someone to death, Hasam, it seems that we have time for entertainment tonight." β
"It seems so," said the man in eardrum armor known as Hasam, in an almost distorted voice, "Amy, we are well worth the trip tonight, you see, I'm completely excited now, hahaha!" β
"You're the murderers of the madness?" Yang Cheng's face was not good, and he asked coldly.
Amy glanced at Yang Cheng with contempt for dozens of people, without the slightest fear, but said in an exaggerated tone: "Crazy murder, second-level citizens are just a group of brutes without human rights, as a hunter, it seems that there is nothing wrong with hunting some beasts!" β
"Chop!" Xiao Kai couldn't help it, the eight flying knives in his hand had already been sacrificed, ready to do it at any time.
Yang Cheng took a breath and said in a deep voice: "Very good, since you admit it, and you appear in front of me, it will save me a lot of trouble, as my first mission, you will obediently accept the punishment of heaven today!" β
"Accept the heavens, it's really scary, last month a group of people said this to us, and as a result, we chopped it all into meat sauce and fed it to the dogs, ah, that feeling is so wonderful, just thinking about it, my whole body began to get excited."
A crazy smile appeared on the woman's face and said, "Do you think I'm not addicted to it, and you deliberately come to satisfy me again?" β
"Ah, it will make you feel satisfied, you can rest assured!" Yang Cheng said, he was already holding the spear in front of him, his words were cold, and the cold killing intent permeated the entire night for a while.
However, before Yang Cheng could make a move, the woman spoke again.
"Hasam, it's so boring that we always hunt beasts like this, why don't we make a bet?"
"Bet, bet what?" Hassam asked in a daze.
"You see, that garbage on the other side dares to carry a spear and dance at us, so much garbage gathered together, it is simply smelly. I'll bet with you, is it my worm that kills more garbage, or if you chop more pieces of meat, what do you think of my proposal? β
"Oh, Amy, your proposal is surprisingly good, but if I win you won't be able to resist me tonight, then, hehe......"
"Don't worry, you're my fiancΓ© anyway, if you win, in addition to agreeing to your request, even if you go to a candlelight dinner."
After the woman finished speaking, she had already loosened the chain in her hand, and the ugly man who was treated like a dog had slowly crawled towards her.
The people behind Yang Cheng all took a step back.
I heard someone say in a voice: "Captain, be careful, that's the insect envoy, a worm envoy who is even more cruel and terrifying than the monster!" β
"Worm Messenger? What is that? β
One of the members of the white team explained with fear on his face: "The captain doesn't know, the insect envoy is to raise the vicious insects in the body, and use special methods to exert the abilities of the insects, this secret technique is simply a nightmare!" β
Another member of the white team added: "Captain, retreat, look at the pus on its face, as long as it splashes a little on its body, we will festered and die, it is really terrible." β
In addition to the insect envoy, Hasam, who was wearing demon armor on the other side, also stepped forward with a long sword, and his mouth kept letting out strange screams, and the whole person was shrouded in moonlight, really like a demon.
"It's just a bug envoy and a murderer, captain, I'm not afraid to that extent!"
The corners of Yang Cheng's mouth showed a cruel smile, and the scars on his face were completely distorted together at that moment, and he said loudly: "It's all good for Lao Tzu, and you can imprint Uncle Ben's heroic figure on your hearts, remember tonight's actions, and remember what the real battle is." If you don't want to be a coward, open your eyes to the maximum and watch them well! β
All the members of the white group, who were still weak on the soles of their feet, suddenly heard Yang Cheng's roar, and they all fell silent for a moment, I don't know why, at that moment, they actually had a sense of relief.
Just as Yang Cheng was about to step forward head-on, Xiao Kai's deep voice also sounded.
"Big brother, leave these two to me!"
His figure quickly flashed in front of Yang Cheng, and in his hand, eight flying knives flashed with a cold glow, "Since I entered this world, I have never been so angry, they are no longer human beings in my heart, even if they are beasts, they are all exalted to them, so, these people please let me sanction them!"
Yang Cheng was stunned for a moment, but he still nodded and put away the spear.
"I'll leave it to you!" Listen to him reply.
