Maybe it was because they were too far away, and the three of them didn't care about Lu Yun, who stopped and watched them from a distance, but to be honest, Lu Yun was skeptical that they could see themselves from such a small hole.

In order to avoid causing unnecessary conflicts, Lu Yun did not continue to move forward, but observed their next move in the same place.

Every organization has some strange rules, and it is the wisest choice for outsiders not to take action without knowing the specific jump, and it is best not to appear in front of the members of the organization, which is also common sense for every suburbanite.

However, because Lu Yun is now wearing the badge of the Aether Company, the organization's tolerance for him will be higher, so he doesn't have to hide, he can stop and watch openly.

As Lu Yun thought, the three of them did not change their actions because of his existence.

They stopped as they reached the middle of the row of residential buildings, only to see the leader raise the lantern in his hand, and the blue sparks flew into the air.

Drip ———

The screeching sound of sparks sounded one after another, and all the lights in the originally dark residential building should be lit up, if Lu Yun didn't know that those were all living rooms, he would really think that it was a voice-activated light.

However, this also shows that this place is indeed the same as Lu Yun thought, it is impossible to be uninhabited, and looking at the speed at which they just turned on the lights, it is estimated that they have not slept, so why not turn on the lights?

The bell died down, and soon, the sound of chaotic footsteps spread throughout the residential building, and after about 2 minutes, all the residents had already come downstairs, and each of them found a good place to stand in front of the three people, according to the family unit.

Lu Yun looked at them and frowned involuntarily, although everyone's bodies were not crippled, and they couldn't tell who had an etheric prosthesis from their appearance, their appearance was still too strange.

All of them are too thin and too thin, both men and women, young and old, and their bodies are sickly slender, and some even have a slight trembling, which is a sign of excessive hunger.

Not only that, but this group of residents were all wearing very thick clothes, and their whole bodies were extremely tightly wrapped except for their faces, and some even covered their faces with cloths.

After the Ethereum company covered the residential area with a canopy, the climate in both the suburbs and the urban area did not change much throughout the year, and it was always a pleasant climate of 15-25 degrees Celsius, so there was no need to wear so much.

And in the hands of each family, there is also a large or small bag, the small one is no more than the size of a human body, and the large one is half a person high, and it does not seem to contain any heavy objects.

No one spoke at the scene for a while, and such an atmosphere in the dark night made Lu Yun feel uncomfortable.

Soon, however, the lantern-bearer gave the lantern to the man behind him, and walked with them to a family.

The father respectfully handed the bag to the family of three, and the child was protected by the mother beside him.

Click.

The man's prosthetic leg quickly changed shape, and soon changed from a human hand to a roller-like shape, Lu Yun felt a little familiar when he looked at it, and soon, he realized where he had seen something similar.

Cash registers.

When Lu Yun went to the choir to pay the rent for his mother, he had seen something like this, and after putting things like banknotes and coins, he could directly count the amount.

Is this collecting rent? Is the rent so expensive here?

The rent in S (19) will not be more expensive than in N (14) where Lu Yun is located, which is a rule that has been established since the establishment of the residential area, and if the bag is really full of money, it will far exceed that of N District.

Of course, rent is not a qualification for residence, and that half-sized bag is still too small for the amount of money to make the leap from S (19) to N (14).

Just when Lu Yun was confused, the member of the organization directly inserted his hand into the bag, and with the slight vibration of his arm, the various colored banknotes flying up and down confirmed Lu Yun's conjecture.

One person in the back held a lamp to illuminate it, while the other took out a pair of banknotes at some point.

After a few seconds, the man withdrew his hand from the bag, but strangely enough, he waved the family back without taking any money.

Then he turned his head and said something to the man with the pen and paper on the side, causing him to write a few strokes quickly.

After finishing the counting, the father's expression was quite apprehensive, but Lu Yun was a little moved by the natural action of protecting his family with his arms when he stepped back.

Yes, that's the father.

Next, under Lu Yun's gaze in the distance, the three of them did the same to the rest of the householders one by one, and when they retreated, all of them looked as worried as the father.

Just when Lu Yun felt that this scene of unknown meaning was about to end inexplicably, an accident happened.

When the member of the Church of Saints counted the money against a single man, his hand stopped shaking and did not reach out immediately, but only pulled it out after another clattering sound of machine transformation.

The prosthetic leg, which has been re-transformed into a human hand, holds many pieces of paper and lifts it out of the bag while sending many of them flying.

Under the illumination of the lantern behind him, Lu Yun saw the true face of the pieces of paper.

White paper, all white paper.

When the single man saw this, his eyes illuminated by the firelight were full of horror, and he opened his mouth, and just as he wanted to justify something, a deep blue that passed quickly like a meteor made him silent again.

The prosthetic leg of the machine, which had been transformed into a human hand, turned into an arm-long blade in an instant, slicing off the man's entire left arm neatly.

Crimson blood dripped to the ground, and blue aether flowed above the blade, signaling its invincibility.

The member who had severed the man's arm didn't pause, the aether flowing above the blade suddenly brightened, and the metal behind it turned red from the heat.

And the man whose arm was cut off was lying on the ground at the moment, covering the section of his arm, looking at the blood gushing out at a loss.

Then, the crimson blade was directly attached to his wound, and a disgusting smell of barbecued meat instantly filled the air, and the gushing blood instantly stopped.

The man's screams suddenly resounded throughout the entire block, but the miraculous thing was that no one showed the slightest pity for him, and even, Lu Yun could see from their eyes...

Craving?

A vicious chill rushed up Lu Yun's back like electricity, and he was horrified by his guess.

Afterward, the residents and the members of the three Church of Saints continued their strange counting behavior as if nothing had happened.

And the man with the broken arm fainted in pain on the spot, and was as unheeded as the broken arm beside him.

When they had finished ordering the bag of money from the last man, they walked back to their place, took out a golden ball with six pairs of wings from their bosom, made a circle in the air in the direction of the inhabitants, and put it back on their chests.

After finishing all this inexplicable matter, they turned around and prepared to leave, heading to the next block, which would pass exactly where Lu Yun was.

Lu Yun watched them get closer and closer to him, his body tensed, ready to fight them anytime and anywhere.

The neat knife that cut off the man's arm made Lu Yun dare not slack off.

But fortunately, what Lu Yun was worried about did not happen, they just passed by Lu Yun, and while breathing a sigh of relief, Lu Yun heard a strange sound on the three of them.

Bang dang bang

This is the sound of liquid shaking, but Lu Yun didn't see any bottles and cans that could hold water on their bodies?

After the figures of the three people completely disappeared from his sight, Lu Yun turned his head to the direction where the residents were standing, who, like himself, were watching the departure of the three people just now.

But, contrary to what Lu Yun thought, those residents did not leave.

Instead, they gathered together, around the unconscious man's severed arm.

Just as Lu Yun was about to get closer and take a closer look at what they were doing, the residents moved in unison, scrambling to pounce on the severed arm.

There was a tingling tearing and cracking sound from the center of the crowd, and Lu Yun understood the current behavior of these residents in extreme nausea and fear-

Eating.
