Chapter 174: The Most Dangerous Profession
readx;? The city sits on a barren red earth covered with weathered stones. Pen × fun × Pavilion www. biquge。 info According to reason, from Lin Feng's point of view, this is completely a savage tribe surrounded by a dilapidated small mound of earth, and it should be an abandoned city that is about to be scrapped.
But unexpectedly, this city was so prosperous that even the city gate was full of people, although some of them did not look like human shapes.
Even if it couldn't be compared to Red Blood City, it was much more lively and prosperous than the other cities that Lin Feng and the others passed through along the way.
All races, all kinds of skins, all kinds of them, all of them, and there are many strange races that Lin Feng has never seen in Red Blood City, all of them look strange, they are all from the dungeon world.
This is the first city on the border between the surface world and the dungeon world. It was also Lin Feng's last supply place before they entered the dungeon.
At first, Lin Feng didn't understand how a good city could be called such a name. Is it because the land here is blood-red? It's a random name, isn't it?
It didn't take long for him to understand the origin of the name, and finally to know how chaotic the city had become.
Noisy, is the only word that can describe this place. The city is full of some big men with three big men and five rough men, this is completely a paradise for killers, Lin Feng saw it when he first came to this city, and he didn't ask the reason for killing people here!
When they lined up to enter the city gate, they saw a young man in front of them who was just about to enter the city, stopped by a drunken guard, as if asking for something, the boy didn't give it, and the guard picked up a big axe and cut off his head!
Blood spilled on the icy ground, staining it blood-red, and then quickly absorbed by the depleted land.
Maybe it's because of the nourishment of blood, so the land here is perennially blood-red, right?Lin Feng looked at the undried land and thought.
How many people's blood did it absorb to make such a big patch of blood red? Is this a city gate or a slaughterhouse?
Is it money or life to go to the city here?
Although Xiao Anna closed her eyes in fright, the people in front of them seemed to be used to this situation, and walked forward one by one with expressionless faces.
In particular, the one who was behind the lad raised his foot and kicked the unlucky man's body far away, and stepped forward to enter the city. This is simply a city watered with blood, and killing is a regular order here.
Mercedas Carlos is the newly appointed captain of the Gate Guard on Red Earth, but he is not happy about the appointment.
If you go out on the street and ask someone what the most dangerous profession is in this red land, nine out of ten will tell you "Captain of the Gate Guard".
Mecedas had been a guard here for 10 years, and the captain of the guard had visited a full 85 of them, and he was exactly the 86th captain of the guard.
On average, one has to be replaced almost every month and a half, and these replaced guard captains have all died without exception, and they all died tragically.
In particular, his former captain, Whit Peters, who had hung up a few days ago, still flashed every minute and second of what happened in front of his eyes, and Whitt Peters's heart-rending screams still lingered in his ears.
In fact, he couldn't sleep for seven days, even if he drunk himself every day, there was no way to put himself to sleep.
As soon as he closed his eyes, the scene that frightened him continued to play out before his eyes. If this continued, he doubted that he would be the first captain of the gate guard to die in bed.
These days, Mecedas soaks in a vat every day, and his mind is not clear for a moment. The wonderful alcohol anesthetized his senses, but fueled his temper.
These days, those passers-by who pass by the city gate are unlucky, and one by one they are worried, for fear that they will anger him and give him their lives in vain.
Even so, 1/4 more people die at the gates every day than usual, and even his immediate boss, Jonathan, the gate officer, expressed deep dissatisfaction with Mecedas's unusual behavior.
But Mecedas is sneering at this, you have the ability to remove me from my position as the captain of the city gate guard, and I still don't want to serve!
Didn't you just stumble into that little bit of with that young and beautiful lady of the tax collector, Gabriel Smith?
I've kept my mouth shut, and how do I know that old Whit Peters thing is going to be preaching about why the tax collector Gabriel Smith came to my door?
It's just a joke when he is drunk, who knows that the old guy who usually can't even remember a complete sentence actually took it seriously and remembered it word for word?
Besides, Whitt Peters has already let you die of play, and you are still dying so badly, why are you bothering me?
If you're not satisfied, replace me! Replace me with someone who will satisfy you.
The fair Mr. Jonathan was still very tolerant of the little temper of his dear men.
There's a saying: For a guy who is dying, any mistake he makes can be tolerated. This is respect for the dying.
So Mr. Jonathan pinched his nose and left him alone, as a gate officer had many other things to do, such as finding a suitable candidate for the next gate guard captain.
Anyway, looking at this kid's current performance, the day of substitution is getting closer and closer.
That Anjieda is not bad, just him, I heard that the wife he just married is in good shape.
Anyway, this Mercedas's temper is getting bigger and bigger, and this didn't just give a scoop to a boy who doesn't have long eyes, and he can come out red and white with an axe, which is refreshing.
Lao Tzu only asked you for dozens of gold coins to make wine money, and dared to bargain with me. I can't go out and inquire, when did you negotiate the price with someone else? Keep this money for yourself, uncle, I don't want it yet.
An axe was chopped, and it happened that the weather was hot these days, and the land at the gate of the city was a little dry, so put some blood and go to the heat.
Suddenly, Mecedas found that in the back of the team, there was a group of people who were quite eye-catching, especially the pair of sister flowers, although they had not yet fully bloomed, but their skin was like clotted fat, their pink lips were crystal jade, and their willow eyebrows were curved, and their eyes were getting bigger and bigger. The black eyelashes fluttered, a small face with melon seeds, and a few strands of hair fluttering in front of the forehead. One face has two temperaments, one is mature and stable like a little adult, the other is delicate and cute, and at a glance it is completely a pair of beautiful embryos. (To be continued.) )
