"I'm really sorry, our boss has some things delayed, maybe we have to wait a little longer, or ...... Shall I take you to rest first? ”

The alien from before came back about an hour later, and said very respectfully to Zheng Yu.

Since knowing that Zheng Yu is a "big customer", this alien who was full of fierce faces before has completely changed his attitude.

Rich is the master, so that this alien performance is incisive.

"Okay."

Zheng Yu didn't have any opinions, he just wanted to see the situation of the alien race in Sound City.

……

The place where the aliens live in Sand City is not far behind the factory.

Zheng Yu saw from the map that the place where the aliens lived was located at the very edge of Sound City, with the factory in the center, and the rich area on the far right, separated by a red fence area in the middle.

Zheng Yu asked curiously: "So, what is the meaning of the existence of the red fence area?" ”

This question was not answered by the alien who led the way, and the alien handed Zheng Yu a thick mask.

"Put this on."

Zheng Yu took the mask and said it was a mask, but it was more like a ...... Gas mask.

Before Zheng Yu could ask, after the carriage entered the street, he smelled a pungent smell, which was a bit like the smell of disinfectant.

Very strong and pungent smell of disinfectant.

Zheng Yu hurriedly put on his mask.

Mark is unaffected, and although Mark can eat and even have a sense of taste, he is not affected by poison gas.

"It smells so big?"

In the face of Zheng Yu's dissatisfaction, the alien explained: "No way, there are a lot of people who have been sick recently. ”

Sick?

Zheng Yu saw aliens dressed in black on the side of the street, holding large sprayers, spraying dense fog on the ground and in the air.

The pungent smell was caused by these thick fogs.

The dense fog fell on the ground, accumulating into a large number of white traces, and when the carriage cleared the team of spraying disinfectant, after drilling through the white fog, Zheng Yu saw the picture that made him frown.

On the ground lay a corpse covered with a white cloth.

Sitting next to him should be the relatives of the corpse, their eyes glazed and blank.

As Zheng Yu's carriage passed, a group of dirty children rushed over and stretched out their hands to grab the car.

Syllable!

"Get out!"

The alien whipped the child's hand on the car window, and blood splattered, but the group of children did not shout, just covered the bleeding hand, looked at the alien with resentment in their eyes, and retreated.

"The plague?"

Seeing so many dead people, Zheng Yu's first thought was the plague.

Zheng Yu asked the alien who led the way, "What disease do they have?" ”

"I don't know."

The alien avoided Zheng Yu's eyes and said directly.

Zheng Yu immediately understood, he knew, but he didn't want to say it.

The further down the street, the fewer corpses died of the disease, but the number of aliens walking on the road decreased.

The alien who led the way led Zheng Yu to a single-family building that looked a bit like an inn.

There are no waiters in the inn and there are no toll desks.

Very old staircase, but very clean.

"There is hot water here, you can choose the room yourself, I recommend the third room on the third floor, which has a better view and lighting."

"I have arranged for someone to replace the new bedding and water bottle, you can use it with confidence."

This alien is very familiar with the reception process, it seems that he has done this kind of thing a lot, and this inn is also likely to be the room where the smugglers were received in the past, and it was prepared by the aliens alone.

"Then I won't bother."

Mark looked at the back of the alien leaving, and said mockingly:

"Don't say it, this person's attitude has changed really quickly, before he still looked like I would kill you if I didn't give you money, and now it's like this, you humans change their faces faster than flipping through a book."

Zheng Yu shook his head, "He's not turning his face quickly, but ...... That's his job. ”

"If my guess is correct, the boss of the alien race should have already passed the anger with the city lord of Sound City."

"Otherwise, it would be impossible to leave us here."

"Originally, I was thinking of buying it for zero yuan, and by the way, I would test the strength of the alien boss, but now it seems that they will not contact us for a while."

……

Zheng Yu followed the recommendation of the alien team leader, and came to the third room on the third floor, the view was indeed wide, in the simple small room area with only one floor, this three-story inn could see basically half of the alien living area.

He didn't stay in the room for long, didn't even eat the food sent by the alien, and took Mark directly into the alien's living area.

"I'm a skeletal creature, I'm not afraid of getting sick, aren't you afraid?"

Mark looked at a dead alien on the ground and asked Zheng Yu worriedly.

Zheng Yu shook his head, and even took off the mask on his face directly, leaning over to lift the white cloth covering the corpse,

"You're really dead."

Mark complained, pushed Zheng Yu's hand away, and helped Zheng Yu lift the white cloth.

"This kind of thing is best for me."

"What else do you need?"

Zheng Yu pointed to the corpse's clothes and said, "Take it off." ”

"Tsk."

Mark let out a grumbling sound, but quickly ripped the clothes off the corpse, revealing the skin on his chest.

The corpse was covered with black scars, with the least on the chest and a gradual increase in the scars on the shoulders.

"Take off your gloves."

According to Zheng Yu's order, Mark took off the rubber gloves on the corpse...... The entire palm is black.

【Remnants of the Divine Spirit】

Zheng Yu saw the system's prompt on the palm of the corpse.

“……”

To be honest, Zheng Yu was stunned for several minutes.

Remnants of the Divine Dead!

Although the system does not give any explanation for this thing, Zheng Yu is very familiar with the word "god and hell".

In the path of exile, the fragments of the gods and the underworld also have the word "gods".

Zheng Yu thought for a long time, and then as if he had made a decision, he said to Mark: "This should be the secret of Sound City. ”

"What?"

Mark didn't react.

Zheng Yu explained: "The materials used to make bone equipment are not something that ordinary aliens with low strength can touch, and if they are touched for a long time, they will become like this. ”

"The lord of Sand City and the leader of the alien race deliberately concealed this information, so that the people here thought that it was a strange disease similar to the plague."

"If you get sick, you need money to be treated, and if you are a foreigner, you need to work harder to make money, and then you need to get sick ......"

"Production, sickness, healing, earning money...... Cycle on and on. ”

Mark listened to Zheng Yu's narration and asked puzzledly, "But if you get sick, you will die?" ”

Zheng Yu nodded, "Yes, so there are two things that need to be done to solve this problem, the first is that the empire needs to continuously send new aliens in. ”

"Second, unite with the leaders of the alien race."

Mark asked, "Why would the aliens help the people of the empire to bully their own people?" I don't understand. ”

Zheng Yu glanced at Mark with a smile, "When there are enough benefits, what is the ...... of your own people and not your own people?"

"As the number of alien deaths increases, so does productivity."

"This kind of thing should also be clear within the empire, so the rulers of the empire will not actually blame the city lord of Thunder City for the decrease in production."

"This also leads to the fact that they dare to smuggle this material in large quantities, and the profits from the smuggling will go into the pockets of the aliens and the city lords."

Zheng Yu said with a smile: "Moreover, I guess that most of the smuggled money belongs to the empire." ”

Mark: "......"

Zheng Yu didn't care whether Mark understood it or not, and continued: "This should be regarded as the way the empire stabilizes the social structure. ”

"Money, by the Empire, by the leaders of the alien race, and by the smugglers...... That is, the rich take it away. ”

"Bitter, all the aliens will eat it."

"Reasonably allocated, right?"

Jung Woo asked the silent Mark.

"You said before that the world is sick and wants to eat people, and this is the way to eat people."

Although Mark was full of philosophy and rebellion, he was actually just learning the words of his former master.

He still didn't understand why the alien leader would stand with the Empire.

Mark asked, "So what are you going to do?" ”

Zheng Yu said: "I didn't agree with the step-by-step customs clearance method before, after all, ...... I don't know how many tasks I have to complete to advance to the top of the Free Mercenary Corps. ”

"But what if...... What about me jumping straight into this world of Game of Thrones? ”

"Uh...... I didn't get it. Mark scratched his head, and he realized that he couldn't keep up with Zheng Yu's brain circuits at all.

Zheng Yu reached out and put the white cloth on the corpse again.

Then he looked at a bone warrior who was walking towards them in the distance, and said with a smile: "Since they misrecognized my identity, then I will continue to play this identity." ”

"The secret of Sound City is not a secret at all to the upper echelons of the empire, but it is still a matter that cannot be brought to the fore."

"This is a good card to play for a person who wants to fight for power, to expose the ugly side of the current emperor."

"What if...... Did I play this card? ”

Zheng Yu's eyes gradually became firm, and he found the ...... to clear this abyss The only way.

Outside of the game, you must not be able to get the real way to clear the level, only by joining them, can you really understand the game.

"Some secrets are in the hands of the Empire, so it's no wonder that the previous professionals couldn't clear it."

"In that case......

"Then let me, a pest, completely bite this rotten world."
