Chapter 32: Downtown

Qin family mansion, banquet hall.

The atmosphere is as lively as ever, and the aroma of food fills the air.

Roy walked through the crowd for a long time with a frown, but he couldn't find Arthur's figure.

"Roy."

He heard someone calling him, and it was Qin Xiang who came over.

He handed out a black card: "Arthur asked for leave today, but he sent this card, which contains a million soles. ”

This is a bank card, made of spiritual materials. With this card, you can make currency transactions at Sidenia Holy Bank with very reliable security.

Roy took the card, and the slightly raised matte material on the surface of the black card was very comfortable to the touch.

Can it be uncomfortable? It contained a million soles.

Qin Xiang didn't intend to point fingers at the grievances between them, so he diverted the topic: "Did you see my sister last night?" ”

He looked at Roy's body expressionlessly, as if to find evidence that he had been beaten by Qin Liu.

"Yes."

Roy pondered his words, "Your sister is really ......!" ”

Valiant? Women don't let the eyebrows be shaved? Or is it a madman whose mind is full of fighting?

For Qin Liu, he couldn't find a suitable adjective for a while.

Qin Xiang looked at him: "So, are you ready to join my team?" ”

The moment these words came out, the eyes of the people around him suddenly focused on Roy.

When they entered the Inheritor Academy next year, among their 995 freshmen, there was only Qin Xiang, a direct member of the Temple Family.

In other words, Qin Xiang's thighs are the thickest of all the freshmen, and joining his team is equivalent to drawing the lottery.

This is also the dream goal of everyone in the ballroom.

For a while, everyone looked at Roy with envy, jealousy and hatred in their eyes.

It's just that when he thinks of the results of the previous hunt, it seems that Roy can be recognized by Qin Xiang, and it seems to be a matter of course.

On this side, Roy fell into a brief silence.

Although he also thinks that joining Qin Xiang's team is the most suitable choice.

But if he joined Qin Xiang's team, what would Arya do?

As a "descendant of sinners" and an inheritor who only awakened at the age of fifteen, she is likely not to be able to find even her teammates.

And when Qin Liu reached an agreement with him last night, he didn't ask himself to join Qin Xiang's team.

"Do you only have one spot left on your team?" Roy asked.

"Yes."

"It's a pity that I already have teammates." Roy sighed slightly, "So, thank you for your kindness." ”

Qin Xiang raised his eyebrows slightly.

"Really? You'd better consider that the invitation is valid until the end of the meeting. ”

With his pride, of course, it was impossible to put down his body and persuade Roy to join the team.

So he simply returned to his seat.

But the people around him were so shocked that they were almost speechless.

"Roy ......"

Harvey came out of nowhere, tearfully grabbing Roy's arm.

"I didn't expect you to give up joining Qin Xiang's team for me, you are such a little fool! I don't allow you to do such a stupid thing! ”

There was seven parts sweetness and three points reproach in his tone.

Seeing that he was about to wipe snot and tears on his sleeve, Roy had a chill and hurriedly shook him off.

"Don't be sentimental."

"I understand!" Harvey howled, "I won't mention these vain things between brothers, I'll toast you!" ”

"You know I don't drink." Roy shook his head, "I'll ask you something again." ”

"What?"

"How much do you know about the Lower Town and the Dungeon?"

"I don't know at all."

Harvey shook his head like a rattle, "Why are you asking this?" One is a poor place, the other is a slum, what is there to know. If you ask Uptown where it's worth playing, I'll be able to get you to. ”

"That's fine."

Roy took the juice and casually touched a glass with him.

……

The next morning, Roy got into the carriage to school as usual.

When he arrived, he didn't go into the school, but called another carriage and drove off to the lower town.

Dividing the upper and lower towns is a 30-meter-high wall.

At the beginning of the beginning, the ancestors of the human race, guided by the divine will, arrived at the World Tree and built the original Sidenia Main City. With a ring of strong and towering walls built, they finally took root at the foot of the World Tree.

Under the nourishment of the World Tree and the protection of the city walls, people completely stayed away from demonic beasts and natural disasters, and quickly multiplied and grew. Hundreds of years later, the main city of the original Sidneya was overcrowded.

So they built another ring of walls around the walls of the original main city for more people to live in.

The current main city of Sidenia is like a concentric circle, with two walls, one inside and one outside.

The castle that is surrounded by the inner castle wall with the World Tree as the center is called the "Upper Castle", and the new castle that is sandwiched between the inner and outer castle walls is called the "Lower Castle".

Later, Sidney opened up "dungeons", where a new settlement was built underground.

The Upper Town, the Lower Town, and the Underground City are the three residential areas of the main city of Sidnia.

Among them, the Upper Town is the center of Sidney, representing the prosperity and prosperity of all mankind.

The ancestors of the inhabitants of the Lower City were the people who migrated from the Upper City due to the expansion of the population of Sidney.

After being separated by a wall, they could barely enjoy the blessings that the World Tree had brought to humanity.

Their way of life is either to drink soup with the merchants of Uptown, or simply go out of the city gates and become mercenaries, seeking a glimmer of opportunity in the wilderness outside the city where natural disasters and monsters are rampant.

But in any case, there is also the power to choose.

The real tragedy is the dungeon dwellers.

They are refugees in the truest sense of the word who are not needed by Sidnia.

Because the original intention of the dungeon was to use it as a cemetery.

Later, as the population grew, Sidneya had to expand the dungeon as a temporary shelter for refugees who had no hukou or work.

It was a veritable slum, and most of the people lived on food from the Temple of Sidnia.

Of course, this is all information that Roy has read from books, and in fourteen years, he has not set a single step out of Uptown.

Now, in order to track down the clues of the slave trade, he needs to travel to the lower city and the dungeon to gather relevant information. Because Klein mentioned that the group of slaves found in Christian's house were all from the dungeon.

He didn't have any dissatisfaction or trouble about this, on the contrary, he vaguely felt some expectations.

Everything in this world made him curious.

The carriage drove under the city walls, and the defenders checked Roy's proof of residence in the upper city, and saluted him after learning of his noble status.

"Mr. Roy, you can always return to Uptown, and I wish you a great time outside."

The carriage drove smoothly through the black-pressed original city walls, as if passing through a dark tunnel, and then the eyes lit up.

It's like a world away.

Roy jumped out of the car and looked at the new world in front of him.

On the surface, the buildings in the lower city are not much different from those in the upper city, but there are many less landmark buildings similar to the Sidenia Temple, the Qin family's Hidden Sword Pavilion, and so on.

It can be seen from the clothing of the pedestrians who come and go that although the quality of life of the people in the lower city is above the passing line, in terms of affluence, it is indeed far inferior to the residents of the upper city.

He lowered his head and double-checked the address of the note in his hand.

"Name: Daisy, Address: 65 Generosity Avenue, District 3, Xiacheng District......"

"Funeral home?"
