Although the fighting had ceased in Mibia for more than two months, the last of the United Kingdom troops had been wiped out ten days earlier in the Dibia Forest, on the outskirts of Miria, and a single intact British army could not be found north of the Dibia Mountains.

The chaos caused by this war did not end there, but because of the deliberate connivance and arrangement of the French Empire, the chaos in Miria City was more serious than during the war.

In the past few months since Miria City became a lawless land, hundreds of gangs, large and small, have sprung up from the ground, and then divided the entire Miria City into dozens of areas, large and small, in order to seize the few resources, you fight and kill each other, and hundreds of people die in this kind of battle almost every day.

It's just that although these gangsters are the largest group of forces in Miria City, when it comes to the strongest forces, they are obviously not qualified to be scattered.

There are two forces that now control the situation in Miria City, and one is the unfathomable black market that controls the smuggling channels. When Miria City was banned by the French Empire's army, controlling the smuggling channels was equivalent to controlling the livelihood of millions of people in Miria City, if there was no black market to continue smuggling all kinds of food and medicine into Miria City, I am afraid that the order of Miria City would have completely collapsed by now.

In addition to the black market, a big force that is hidden underground and quietly rich, there is another force hidden under Miria City, although everyone has heard the name of this force, but no one has ever known how big this force is and how many people it controls, this force is the Miria Free Front.

The Milia Free Front appeared when the United Kingdom withdrew from Miria City, and when Miria City was bombed by airships and completely destroyed, the Liberty Front also stood up to help the refugees in the city, which made the post-war casualties of the residents of Miria City be controlled within 1,000, which is a miracle.

Because the Freedom Front appeared at the time when the United Kingdom withdrew from Miria City, some people initially thought that the Freedom Front was a pawn left by the United Kingdom in Miria City to contain the Imperial army.

But after the Freedom Front put forward its own slogan and did a few major things, the aura of the United Kingdom on it completely disappeared, and it was also honored to be put on the wanted list of both the French Empire and the United Kingdom that must be eliminated.

The external slogan and proposition of the Freedom Front was the establishment of a free and independent Republic of Miria. They believed that the United Kingdom had given up the city of Miria before the war had officially begun, which meant that he had completely lost the sovereignty of the city of Miria, and that the French Empire was an invader, a slaughterer of the people of the city of Miria, and was not qualified to control the city of Miria, which could only be controlled by the people themselves.

At first, everyone thought that the slogan of the Freedom Front was just words, in order to have a legitimate name, to control the now chaotic city of Miria, just like the gangsters.

However, what happened later made everyone realize that they were wrong, and that the Freedom Front really wanted to build a Republic of Miria, because they uprooted all the secret posts and spies of the French Empire and the United Kingdom in the city of Miria, and even robbed the arsenals of the two countries on the front line in the Dibia Mountains.

Although both countries hate the people of the Freedom Front and want to pull out this nail, the strength of the Freedom Front is too strong, and anyone sent to Miria City by the two countries will eventually be lost in the sea, and there is no news, including special departments formed by supernormal forces such as the Imperial Secret Service, which have suffered a lot of losses in Miria City.

The reason why the Freedom Front is so difficult to destroy is mainly because no one knows who the members of the Freedom Front are, there is only one member of all the open Freedom Front, and the others are all hidden underground, maybe a certain garrison soldier is a member of the Freedom Front, or maybe a certain gang leader, in short, the Freedom Front is completely hidden among the residents of Miria City, unless all the residents are killed, otherwise, the Freedom Front cannot be eliminated at all.

Some people have also thought of using the only member of the Freedom Front who is publicly available as a breakthrough, because there are many indications that this person who has made a public identity should be the supreme leader of the Freedom Front, and as long as he is captured or killed, it will inevitably deal a heavy blow to the Freedom Front and even cause it to collapse.

It's just that this openly identified member of the Freedom Front is not an ordinary person, he is none other than the chief inspector who once received the highest medal of the empire and has a lot of prestige and influence in the light and dark realms of Miria City.

At a time when Miria was still under the control of the United Kingdom, Ljungberg Weai was appointed Secretary of State for Police and Commissioner of Police by the United Kingdom Parliament, and was one of the people in real power in the United Kingdom. More than half of the sergeants in police stations across the United Kingdom come from his subordinates, and the proportion of positions above the sergeant, such as the commissioner, etc., will be even higher, and he can be said to be the father of the police in the United Kingdom.

However, such an important person in power did not leave with him when the United Kingdom withdrew from Miria City, and after processing the last official documents, he disappeared directly, and it was believed that he had been assassinated by Imperial agents.

However, with the destruction of the city of Miria, Ljungberg Veai stepped forward as a member of the Freedom Front, and his first appearance was also very impressive, because he assassinated the pilot who was driving the airship to bomb the city of Miria, the commander of the front, General Bart, and the entire front-line combat staff team, fifty-three, none of whom survived.

It was precisely because of this incident that the French army was not able to penetrate the defense line of the United Kingdom in the Didbia Mountains and enter the southern end of the mountain range, so it was only at that time that the Freedom Front would have thought that the United Kingdom had planted a nail.

It was only after Ljungberg Veai and some members of the Freedom Front who hid their identities raided the secret base hidden in the United Kingdom under the city of Miria, killing more than 30 British spies and agents, and completely destroying the United Kingdom's spy organization in the north, and everyone realized that the Freedom Front slogan was not just words.

Although, in order to capture or assassinate Ljungberg Via, both countries have sent professional hitmen and assassins, and even did not hesitate to issue bounties on the black market, using bounty hunters to hunt down Ljungberg Viai, but in the end it was unsuccessful, Ljungberg Viai is still alive and well, and every once in a while he will appear in front of the public to give some public speeches.

Leo himself didn't know much about Miria City, and now that Miria City has become so chaotic, Leo's experience and information accumulated during his stay in Miria City are obviously useless, and he can only rely on the Earth Serpent if he wants to find the whereabouts of the Plague Ring in this ruin.

As the Persona Institute thought, while it would have been much easier to use the Black Market to find the Plague Ring, the Black Market could not be trusted, and looking for them would undoubtedly be home delivery.

Now in the entire city of Miria, among the people who least want the plague ring to have problems, Ljungberg Viai is definitely one, and he has a great influence among the ordinary people of Miria City, and the Freedom Front has a lot of eyes and ears, with his help in finding it, Leo can save a lot of unnecessary trouble.

However, Ljungberg Viai is also uncertain, and it will take some effort for Leo to find him, but luckily Ljungberg will definitely do one thing, and that is to go to the largest refugee area in Miria City to give a public speech.

Although Leo had already known the current situation of Miria City from the information provided by Sylvia, and had seen the current situation of the city full of desolation in the process of walking all the way from the suburbs to the city, when he saw this refugee city with no end in sight, he still couldn't recognize some sighs with ordinary emotions.

This refugee town used to be a religious town and a foreign consulate town, and Leo remembers the shock and novelty of seeing so many international buildings when the train passed through this town when he first entered Miria City.

At that time, this part of the city was definitely the most beautiful scenery in the city, and anyone could appreciate the customs of the world without going out of the city, and all kinds of religious buildings stood in it, blending together in perfect harmony, without the slightest conflict of religious ideas caused by other places.

But now, the majestic religious buildings, the consulate buildings with the customs of various countries and the living areas of the consulate staff have all become a piece of rubble and rubble, and the houses composed of broken stone and rotten wood are built in a chaotic manner on the foundations of these once exquisite and majestic buildings, which makes people recall the glory of the past, and they can't help but feel inexplicably sad.

Now Leo is going to find a liaison in this refugee area, because of the Freedom Front, the main eyes and ears of the United Kingdom in the city have been dealt with by Ljungberg Viai, and only a few people in the suburbs are still safely stationed in the various underground bases.

So for the mission of the Plague Ring, Sylvia had to use her own men, who are now a gang leader in the refugee city, and have a certain amount of power that can bring some help to Leo's investigation.

Before Leo entered the city, he had already sat on some disguises, such as making his clothes old and making his face dusty, etc., and then carrying a package full of various garbage materials, making him look no different from other scavengers.

When entering the refugee city, although he was noticed by some scavenger groups guarding the entrance of the city because of his strong body, and received some invitations, the process was generally very peaceful, and he did not meet any unsightly guys.

After entering the city, Leo did not rush to Sylvia's gang, but like other scavengers, he found a purchase point with a black market background and sold all the miscellaneous items he picked up.

Although the things that Leo picked up from some of the houses in the villa area were all useless garbage in his eyes, they became treasures in the eyes of some people, and one of the famous sculptures with a little damage was sold for eighty yuan.

Because when the United Kingdom was founded, the currency of the whole country was exchanged, so that the residents of Miria City did not have the currency of the French Empire at hand, and the currency of the United Kingdom was useless at this time, so the black market, which controlled the entry and exit channels of a large number of materials, united with the gangsters and other organizations to establish a new temporary currency.

Underground coins are not divided into several levels like other currencies, for example, the currency of the Fran Empire has three main levels: Gold, Bill, and Marceau, which is more like a cash check issued on the black market. The amount of money is written on the bill, a special stamp is stamped, and the bill can be exchanged for an equivalent item in any business under the name of the black market and the gangster.

Although the Underground Coin has only been in its infancy for a few months, it has now gradually become a common currency in Miria City, and even the official merchants of the French Empire who enter the market to trade with the scavengers in Miria City will pay the Underground Coins.

Eighty underground coins are equivalent to three gold flanges in the past, and in the underground market of the black market, you can buy all the rations needed by a family of five for three months, which is definitely a huge amount of money in the current refugee city, and with other garbage, Leo now has as many as 116 underground coins on hand.

Putting such a large sum of money on one person will naturally attract the attention of some people, but even if Leo goes to some remote places, no one dares to snatch it, because these people regard Leo as that kind of lone traveler.

In order to snatch the treasure buried in the ruins, the scavengers have gone from fighting on their own, to cooperating with each other, and now they have formed gang-like groups, dividing the ruins of the entire city into parts, each mastering a region, thereby reducing unnecessary casualties.

However, among the scavengers, there are still some powerful lone travelers, most of whom act alone, searching for useful supplies in the areas controlled by other scavenger groups.

In the past, there were clashes between the Scavengers and the Lone Wanderers, and although the Lone Ranger was besieged to death by a large number of scavengers, the Scavenger Group suffered heavy losses as a result, and was attacked by a hostile organization, and eventually not only the ruined area was lost, but even the organization was swallowed up.

Therefore, in the refugee area, the various gangs and scavenger organizations have another unwritten code of conduct, not to easily provoke those who are lone travelers.

After Leo left the black market acquisition point, he went straight to an underground market opened up by the nearby black market.

Although the name is an underground market, it is actually open on the ground, and the various items traded here are no different from other cities, as long as there is money, anything can be bought, and in terms of the type of materials, it even exceeds the logistics department of the French Empire.

Therefore, in this market, not only a large number of refugees came to buy daily necessities, but also some railway garrisons recruited by the empire took the currency of the empire and came here to buy some things that could not be bought by the French imperial military camp, such as wine.
