Volume 1: Sin City Chapter 1: Death Row Teenager

Next Chapter

The earth is silent, the sky is gray and foggy, this is a world shrouded in thick fog.

Under the fog.

A lighthouse city stands.

Lighthouse City relies on psionic energy drawn from the ground to gather at the top of the lighthouse to form psionic beads, which then throw out a light curtain like a waterfall to isolate the dense fog.

The city below the lighthouse, is the notorious Sin City.

This is more of a cage than a city, and no matter what crime you commit, as long as you are exiled here, you will never want to get out of this life, and no one will be able to escape here.

There are no guards here, and there is no need for them.

The law of Sin City is the law of the jungle.

In the southeast of the city, there is an area that no one dares to approach, and even the most vicious criminals passing by here will be very careful to avoid it, for fear of offending the owner here.

Because here, the only condemned prisoner in Sin City lives.

Lighthouse world, sparsely populated.

Everyone seems to be precious, and even if they break the law, they are only exiled to the sin city to fend for themselves.

But the seventeen-year-old boy who lived here announced from the moment he came here that he was going to be taken away for execution when he turned eighteen, and no one knew what crime he had committed, and no one dared to approach him, for he was the only one with forbidden locks on his hands, neck, and feet.

In the lighthouse world, the royal family reigns supreme.

The royal family has never participated in the operation of the lighthouse world, and is all controlled by the Holy House, but the death sentence of the boy was issued by the three royal families themselves, which is the first time since the birth of the royal family, which has caused an uproar in Sin City, making people even more curious about who the young man is.

However, no one dared to approach.

No one dared to disturb the peaceful life of the executed youth, because he approached a person who was wanted to be killed by the royal family because of curiosity, and if he didn't do it, he even had to get into it.

Sin City is not airtight, and everything that happens here is under the watchful eye of the Holy House.

In a room in an empty alley, Lin Tian leaned on the windowsill and read comic books, which was the only way he could pass the time.

He was seventeen years old, tall, slightly thin, with a well-defined face, an indescribable temperament between his eyebrows, and his clothes were tattered, and he wore no shoes or shoes.

Although he has a forbidden spirit lock all over his body, it does not affect his daily activities at all, he can't use spiritual energy, and he still has fists.

Originally, he was full of interest and thought that after coming here, he would inevitably have a conflict with the aborigines here, and he was ready to convince people with his strength, but what he didn't expect was that after the people here heard that they were the people named by the royal family to kill, they all wanted to hide far away, for fear of having anything to do with him, and after seeing everyone's reaction, Lin Tian instantly lost interest.

It's boring.

Closing the comic book with serious missing pages and broken corners, looking up at the sky, a trace of reminiscence flashed in his eyes, and he couldn't help but feel nostalgic for the little black house that once imprisoned him, compared to the little black house, this is simply heaven.

The blue canopy resembles a waterfall, and the layers of waves flow in an arc, which should be regarded as a highlight of the Lighthouse City.

Lin Tian really wanted to know what was in the dense fog outside the canopy, he had heard that there were many powerful fog beasts, but for so many years, he had never seen them, and he didn't know what they looked like.

Today is the seventeenth birthday, it has been three years since I came here, and I will be eighteen years old in another year, and there is not much time left for myself, glancing at the forbidden spirit lock on his body, Lin Tian's eyes flashed with a strange light, the corners of his mouth rose slightly, and he jumped lightly from the balcony on the second floor to the street of the alley, stared at the exit of the alley, took a deep breath, and walked out of the alley without hurry.

"It's been a long time since I've been out, and I don't know what's going on outside, it seems like ...... It's not as lively as it used to be!?"

Lin Tian just walked to the mouth of the alley, and the scene outside made him stunned for a while, the road was full of maglev cars, the street was full of pedestrians, and there were all kinds of shops, such a prosperous scene made him take a few steps back, and rubbed his eyes, thinking that he had seen the wrong thing.

That's right, Sin City has been different from him when he arrived, the people at that time were very simple, and it was a trivial matter to fight and kill with weapons on the streets, and now, there are alternative scenery everywhere, and there is no lively street scene at the beginning, but there are many more busy figures in order to survive.

These busy figures are all descendants of criminals, and they can't do without Sin City all their lives, although they were born innocent, but they were born in this city, and from the moment they were born, they were labeled as criminals all their lives, and they don't want to get out of here in this life.

Lin Tian has never been in contact with ordinary people, he is full of curiosity about the lives of ordinary people, looking left and right, looking like a curious baby, when he came to a flower shop, the flowers placed in front of the door caused a strong impact on his vision.

He, who had only seen flowers in comic books, squatted next to the flower pots, constantly looking.

Pedestrians on the street were curious about his outfit, and it was rare to see someone dressed in such tatters.

Although this is a sin city, but after several sweeps, the area has been clearly divided, and the four lords are in charge of the east, south, west, and north four major areas, and the security is many times better than before, and there are also security team robots patrolling under the jurisdiction of the lord on the street, and no one dares to make trouble at will.

People here, as long as they hand in a certain amount of lighthouse coins on time every month, can live a normal life, so people's lives are slowly getting better, people like Lin Tian who are dressed in tatters are not nothing, but very rare, at least they will not appear in this area.

However, when they saw clearly what Lin Tian was carrying, they all showed frightened expressions and immediately retreated far away, for fear of getting close to Lin Tian.

Lin Tian noticed the strangeness behind him, turned around and looked back, and saw that everyone looked like they were ghosts, blinked and thought about it, and his head flashed, revealing snow-white teeth, showing a very friendly look.

When everyone saw this, they immediately fled in panic and crawled here.

"Uh......"

Lin Tian was stunned, he didn't expect everyone to react like this, and then he remembered the forbidden spirit lock on his body, so he shrugged his shoulders and didn't care, and continued to enjoy the flowers.

In the lighthouse world, the royal family has the supreme right and is the spokesman of the gods.

In Sin City, no one has ever seen the real royal family, but on TV or the restricted Internet, the royal family is vaguely seen in the cheers and awe, appearing in the world of ordinary people, but the mark of the royal family is deeply imprinted in everyone's heart, and the forbidden spirit lock on Lin Tian's body is engraved with the mark of the three major royal families, which is also the reason why they are afraid of Lin Tian.

Three years later, the death penalty of a juvenile still fears them.

"Do you like it?"

Lin Tian's hand stroking the flower stopped, raised his head, and what caught his eye was a girl wearing a warm waist cloth and a headscarf, with a smile as sweet as an angel.

Lin Tian was slightly stunned, then nodded.

The girl squatted down and picked up the flower pot and handed it to Lin Tian, "If you like it, I'll give it to you, this is a lily, remember to water it every day."

Lin Tian grabbed the flower pot from the girl's hand in a daze, and said with some surprise, "You don't seem to be afraid of me."

The girl tilted her head and wondered, "What are you afraid of?"

「……」

The girl's words made him lose his mind for a moment, as if he ...... What's wrong?

Smelling the flowers, the fragrance of the flowers went straight to his brain down his nostrils, which shocked his spirits, and grinned: "Thank you, how much does this cost, I will give it to you later."

"No money." The girl shook her head and got up and walked into the flower shop.

Lin Tian glanced at the warm and romantic flower shop, and suddenly felt that going out this time was a very correct decision.

He was in a good mood, holding a flower pot and began to wander around the street, and when he saw anything new, he had to run to watch it, and before others recognized him, he hurriedly slipped away, and when he saw something delicious, he would lie on the glass window and drool, thinking of the things he had eaten in the past three years, he immediately despised it, and the dogs looked down on it.

Sitting on the side of the road, putting down the flower pot, putting his hands in his pockets, the two pockets are still open, he is so poor that he is destitute, sighing slightly, holding his head with both hands and looking preoccupied.

He just sat like that, no one bothered him, and no one dared to disturb him.

Just when Lin Tian was worried about money, an advertisement suddenly floated from the air, and he was sharp-eyed, just glanced at it, and saw it clearly, and immediately became interested.

I got up and walked straight through the road where there was a lot of traffic, forced a few cars to stop, and in a burst of shouting and scolding, I walked to the opposite street, picked up the advertisement on the ground and looked at it, and immediately had an idea in my heart.

Fighting Arena!

Champions can earn high Beacon Coins, which don't require any entry fees, and can participate regardless of who you are.

The corners of Lin Tian's mouth rose, pinched the advertisement, crossed the road and forced several cars to stop, and walked towards the city center with flower pots.

"If you want to talk about other skills, I don't have it, but when it comes to fighting, no, it's beating people, and I'm the best at beating people, hehe!"

The arena is in the heart of Sin City, below the lighthouse.

It was the liveliest and most prosperous place in Sin City, where everything was eaten, drunk and merry, and even other powerful people in Beacon City were attracted to come here and spend their money through special channels.

Of course, the most popular is the fighting arena.

The fighting arena is the only place where you can kill people justifiably, which is also the biggest highlight of the fighting arena, the law of the lighthouse world does not allow killing, but the fighting arena is an exception, you can feel the life and death struggle at close range in the fighting arena, cheer for the players you bet on, win rich bonuses, and get rich overnight is not a dream.

What could be more passionate?

Lin Tian was afraid of being recognized, so when he was in the alley, he took advantage of the fact that no one tore off a rag sticking to the wall and covered himself tightly, holding a pot of lilies that did not match him to the center of the city, just walked out of the alley, the scene in front of him stunned him, the street was full of people wearing various costumes, most of them were wearing masks, there were loaded robots everywhere, and there were holographic projection advertisements everywhere on the tall buildings, and even some advertisements that were not allowed to exist in the lighthouse world were posted in the most conspicuous places.

It is worthy of being a sin city, although the folk customs have changed a lot, but the nature is still simple.

Lin Tian was like a mummy, holding a flower pot that was completely out of tune with him, looking around with a novel eye, nodding his head constantly, and finally found some evidence of the simplicity of the people of Sin City.

Lin Tian was curious about others, and others were also full of curiosity about him, and even some gorgeously dressed people unabashedly laughed at what he was wearing.

Lin Tian didn't care about this at all, and after inquiring about the place where he signed up for martial arts, he happily went straight away.

The martial arts registration location is not very far from here, it didn't take long to arrive, Lin Tian lined up behind the long line, not in a hurry at all, waited patiently, when he arrived, the young woman who was registering for registration couldn't help but burst out laughing when she saw him dressed up, I had seen something strange, I had never seen such a strange thing.

Lin Tian scratched his head slightly in embarrassment.

The woman politely asked, "Did you come to the fight of your own volition?"

Lin Tian nodded.

The woman took out a piece of paper, "Then sign it here and press your handprint."

Lin Tian picked it up and looked at it, and was immediately amused, the other words were very small, but the line was very clear: signed, went to the fighting ring, life and death have nothing to do with the organizer.

He smiled, signed his name and pressed his handprint.

The woman carefully read the letter of volunteer, looked up and said, "Please put your ID device here and scan it, and after winning every game, the prize money will be automatically distributed to your account."

Lin Tian dodged his hand behind his back, and said with some embarrassment, "Can you pay in cash?"

The woman was stunned when she heard this, shook her head, and smiled, "I'm sorry, no."

Lin Tian had no choice but to stretch out his left hand, and the metal bracelet representing his identity shook on the instrument, and the instrument immediately emitted a series of alarm sounds, and then Lin Tian's identity information was also holographically projected.

Lin Tian's avatar and identity information flashed with red, especially the three supreme marks covering the information, which were even more red as if they were dripping blood.

The woman looked at the holographic projection blankly, then looked at Lin Tian again, and with an 'ah' scream, she fell to the ground in horror, retreated again and again, and pointed at Lin Tian's trembling body and couldn't speak.

Because those three marks as red as blood are the marks of the royal family.

And red, it represents death!
