Chapter 354: Safe Zone

A group of people walked down the street.

Shang Tao and the others followed Aixiang for a while, and the people around them gradually increased.

Aika also breathed a sigh of relief, "This place is basically on the periphery of the safety zone, so it's not so dangerous." ”

Shang Taoqi said: "There is still a safe zone in this city?"

Aixiang said: "In fact, it is a safe trading area jointly created by various gang forces, in which private hands are not allowed, and there are patrols dedicated to maintaining order. ”

Shang Tao laughed and said: "In order to better squeeze profits, a certain amount of order is indeed needed, if it is blindly chaotic, it is a wave of trading, and it cannot be sustained......"

Red said lightly: "The ghost world is not a reckless and chaotic place where you only know killing, in the words of Lan Xing, the history of civilization in the ghost world is much longer than that of Lan Xing......"

Shang Tao said with a smile: "It seems that you have not been in vain on the Internet, you still learned something, indeed, the difference between the ghost world civilization and the Blue Star civilization is so big, in fact, it is because of the difference in individual strength, not how much difference in intelligence between intelligent lives......"

He thought of the other world that had been invaded by the ghost world, secretly, after the ghost world invaded the dark land, it did not kill all the dark people, but drained the spiritual energy and made some so-called holy places to squeeze the surplus value of the dark people.

As you enter this so-called safe area, a number of sentries armed with weapons and various heavy weapons on the roofs of the surrounding buildings appear.

Although you are not allowed to do anything casually, there are still many malicious eyes around.

Aika knew that these eyes were looking at the large backpack behind her.

She'd never carried so much valuable stuff before when she walked out of here, and now she was even more nervous with a bag of valuable gadgets on her back.

She led the group to a checkpoint where a checkpoint was set up, surrounded by a dozen armed men with guns.

Whether it is the entry and exit of people or vehicles, fees must be paid to those who keep the card.

Shang Tao followed the crowd in line with great interest.

Red said impatiently: "Let's go in, it's boring......"

Shang Tao said: "You have to learn to be patient, since you have come to a new environment, let yourself have a little new feeling, otherwise it will be really boring to always fight and kill......"

Red said disdainfully: "What's the good feeling, it's better to play games, it's so bad here, there's no ...... even 5G signal."

Aika explained: "Communication signals and Internet access signals can only be obtained when entering a specific area, which is basically a luxury, and we at the bottom cannot afford to use it. ”

Xiaoguo and Lingling were very interested, just like Shang Tao said, no matter how you say it, it can be regarded as a new environment after going abroad, and they both think it is very interesting.

Xiao Guo looked at the people in front of him who paid the entrance fee to the city, and said curiously: "The monetary system here has not collapsed, and it is still possible to use the banknotes of various countries?"

In her opinion, a city like the end of the world, the currency system should have collapsed a long time ago, didn't all the TV series she originally watched play like this?

Shang Tao guessed: "It's not really cut off from the outside world, it's just that some people control the contact channels, and they can still transport things from the outside, otherwise what's the use of them making this safe trading area." You see, the currencies they collect are the strongest Chinese and American currencies now, which is enough to show that they are still using these currencies to go out and use them......"

Aika nodded, "Yes, although this place has been abandoned by the Yin Mud Country, these gangs will still find a way to get some things in from the outside, otherwise they will not be able to support it with the original materials in the city alone......"

Shang Tao touched the pocket of his clothes, "I don't seem to have any cash......"

Red said: "Don't look at me, including in the ghost world, I never bring money for such things, what do you need, just grab it, why bring money......"

Xiaoguo and Lingling spread out their hands, money is such a thing, they haven't touched it since they became sober.

Although their current state looks like ordinary people, it is the effect of illusion, and in fact, neither of them has reached the strength that can interfere with reality with their souls.

In other words, they can't pick up real-life items.

With Shang Tao's current strength of his soul body, he can't interfere with reality, and he estimates that he has to learn to convert between virtual and real or let his divine thoughts upgrade again before he can directly interfere with the matter in reality.

The ghost clan in the ghost world has a unique advantage in this regard, and some relatively strong ghosts can master the transformation of virtual and real to interfere with reality, just like the racial talent.

Aixiang hurriedly said: "Don't worry, adults, I'll pay for entering the city......"

Shang Tao nodded, but didn't say anything.

The group lined up to the toll office, and Aixiang took out five yellow assault rifle bullets and handed them to the toll collector.

The armed men who charged looked at the few of them, first looked at the assault rifle in Aixiang's hand, and then frowned when they looked at Shang Tao, Xiaoguo, and Lingling who were overly clean.

Finally, when I saw the red and black combat uniform, my eyes became solemn.

He muttered something to an armed man next to him, and then shouted a word in the local dialect to Aika.

Aika said a little worriedly: "He made us wait, I don't know what to do." ”

Red laughed, "Don't you let us in, hehe......"

Her meaning is obvious, it's better not to let in, then you can kill in.

But at this time, a guy wearing a bulletproof vest walked over, looked at a few people, and said something in a whisper

The previous level opens.

Aika translated: "He said that we were born face to face, and asked if we were outsiders?"

Shang Tao said lightly: "Tell him that we are members of the Poisonous Wolf Gang......"

Aika hesitated: "This ......"

Impersonating a gang member, if known, will be brutally retaliated.

Shang Tao said: "Or you tell him, tell him to get out of the way, don't block the way, or I will cut off all their hands and feet." ”

Aika shuddered, thinking of the poisonous wolf gang who had their hands and feet cut off and died.

She was still a little hesitant to pretend to be a member of the Poisonous Wolf Gang, but she thought that although she didn't kill the person, she took so many things from the Poisonous Wolf Gang, and it would be a dead end if she was known, so it was nothing to pretend to be a member of the Poisonous Wolf Gang.

She grunted to the man that they were members of the Poison Wolf Gang.

The man looked at a few more people, waved his hand, and let the few armed men who had gradually surrounded them retreat, and then let the people open the level.

Shang Tao smiled, "It's not too stupid......"

The small bosses guarding the main road are actually more discerning, this is a safe area jointly set up by many gangs, and it is not a monopoly.

Shang Tao Although they looked a little suspicious, they knew that it was not simple by looking at their temperament, and it was impossible for them to know all the members of the gang.

If you really make things difficult for important people in other gangs, it will be more than worth the loss.

A few people walked in, and the inside suddenly became lively, and some shops were also open as usual, bustling, not as devastated as outside.

However, although it is more normal than the outside, it is still not like the city before.

The streets are bustling with people, but they still look chaotic and dilapidated, with some retro buildings, steaming sewers, eerie neon lights, and drones flying by from time to time.

Shang Tao smiled: "There is a bit of Bosai punk flavor here, it's really interesting......"

Outsiders look interesting, but locals are left with nostalgia.

Aixiang sighed: "Palembang City used to be very prosperous, who would have thought that in just a few months, it would become like this......"

Xiaoguo comforted: "It's okay, now the governments can't spare their hands, and when they come back, they will definitely come to clean up these guys and restore order...... It seems that China has already promised to take joint action with the Yin Ni country, and other countries should also participate in the action......"

Shang Tao smiled and didn't say anything, Xiaoguo was still too simple.

Not to mention that this place is not far from the island fusion point, if you want to recover here, it is estimated that you must first completely destroy the ghosts in the city, and then deal with that fusion point.

But even if all the ghosts are killed, it will not be easy to restore the previous order from the current chaotic and complicated situation.

In the past, when the ghosts had not invaded, those small countries targeted by the United States had not been at war all the time, and some cities had also become devastated and ruined.

But I didn't see a gang of initiators from the United States and Europa helping people restore order and rebuild their homes.

It is always much harder to build than to destroy.

If you want to destroy the city directly, it will be easy, but it is unlikely to restore it to its former state.
