human journey

Chapter 141
Lu Yu held Lan Qi with one hand, and his hand felt different now, feeling amazing elasticity.But in fact it was like this before, but he just didn't feel anything. It can only be said that his mentality has changed.

He didn't think that Boulma, who was quite haggard and sloppy before, was beautiful, but now that she is well-dressed, Boulma makes him feel pretty. Both men and women have such virtues, and the impression of a person can be influenced by a momentary feeling.

After a few jumps, Lu Yu ran to the roof. At night, the houses and streets of Baitian City were brightly lit, and smokeless wood was burning everywhere.

On the other hand, the empty roof was pitch black, and Lu Yu ran so fast that no one noticed them at all.

Lu Yu jumped up and down among these closely connected, high and low roofs, with incomparable flexibility and fast forward speed.Fortunately, these roofs are built very strong, otherwise, with the weight of the Skyfire Sword, Lu Yu could step on a pit with one step.

A few hours later, Lu Yu and Lan Qi arrived outside the inner city wall. They hid on a nearby roof and observed secretly.

This city wall is hundreds of meters high like the outer city, and the top of the wall is heavily guarded. There are guards at every ten steps, and guards at every hundred steps. Although the gates of the walls are not closed at night, there are still many awakened warriors guarding them, as if sneaking in. It is impossible.

The awakened warriors living in the inner city, including their family members, are all registered. Everyone has a fixed gate to enter and exit, and the guards at each gate will keep in mind who can enter and exit through this gate. It is also impossible to get in by relying on the identity of an awakened warrior. of.

This is the information that Lu Yu caught an awakened soldier who came back late and forced him to question him. Originally, he was very stubborn and refused to say it, but with Lan Qi here, he didn't need to say it, just think about it.

When Lu Yu asked a question, he was unprepared, so he would think about it in his head. Soon, Lan Qi said that he knew everything, and Lu Yu knocked out the soldier. It was strange that he fainted. I don't even have to answer the question myself, are I drinking too much to tease myself?
"How do I get in? Is it hard to break in? But tomorrow, the inner city will allow awakened warriors living in the outer city to participate in the selection of god warriors. Breaking in now may bring adverse consequences, so it's not very cost-effective."

Just as Lu Yu was muttering to himself and wanted to give up the idea of ​​entering the inner city at this time, he saw a member of the Baitian clan coming to the gate of the city and chatting with the guards.

Although their voices were not loud, Lu Yu was not far away, and his hearing was strong. At this time, all the residents in this area were resting, and the environment was quite quiet, so Lu Yu heard their conversation.

From the conversation, we learned that this man was also an awakened warrior, but he lived in the outer city. It was not that he did not want to live in the inner city, but that he had no money and could not afford to live in the inner city.

After all, the living environment in the inner city is better, the security is better, and it is also close to the high-level officials of the Baitian tribe, so they have a better chance of being promoted.

It is also a symbol of status. It is much easier to find a wife if you live in the inner city. This has even become a good project for some people to invest and manage money. The richest clansmen in Baitian City, except for the leaders and high-level people, all started by buying and selling real estate in the inner city .

Some people will drive up housing prices in the inner city in order to increase their assets, and the demand is already high. Many awakened fighters in the outer city are desperate to get in, so the housing prices in the inner city are very high, far exceeding those in the outer city. That's ten times the difference!
A lot of awakened warriors with mediocre strength, little prey and supplies, little money, and no background can only live in the outer city and mix with ordinary clansmen.

Awakened warriors are often born among ordinary clansmen, but if they cannot enter the inner city, they are just ordinary clansmen with stronger strength.

If they want to completely change their identities and destiny, the first step is to live in the inner city and become awakened warriors of the inner city who have been registered by the guards.

Awakened warriors in the inner city are absolutely transcendent existences in the outer city. Even if they kill ordinary clansmen, as long as there are no serious consequences, they will generally not be held accountable, let alone bullying men and women, and forcibly occupying properties.

Therefore, most of the industries in the outer city belonged to the inner city people, or they were given huge profits to obtain shelter.Ordinary clansmen spend their whole lives being oppressed. Fortunately, the area of ​​Baitian City is rich enough. The basic necessities of ordinary clansmen are not bad, but they are far worse than those in the inner city.

But the status of the awakened fighters in the outer city is much lower than that. All the properties and personnel of the awakened fighters in the inner city can be seen. Save money silently.

This caused the awakened warriors living in the outer city to be very depressed. They could neither go to the inner city, nor be able to be unrestrained in the outer city. Even because of their noble status, the awakened warriors could not do the things of ordinary clansmen, nor could they attach themselves to the inner city people. They can only make money desperately in order to buy a house in the inner city and become inner city residents.

Tomorrow is the selection of the God Warrior. As long as you are selected as the God Warrior, you will be allocated a house and can directly live in the inner city.Besides, this year, there will be the blessing of the God of the sky, and the selection of the leader's successor. Each of these conditions will allow the awakened people in the outer city to try their best to increase their chips for victory.

The person in front of Lu Yu thought of a way, to go to the inner city tonight, and go to the selection competition tomorrow to familiarize himself with the environment. After all, he has never entered the inner city, and there will be so many people tomorrow that he will not be familiar with it at all.

But how can the guards agree to let him go in first? This requires the use of a magic weapon that is common no matter whether it is the earth or here, no matter whether it is ancient or modern, and that is money!

"Made, why didn't I think of using this trick? There is no camera here, and it was only put in ahead of time. BAItian City has been safe and stable for too long. These guards will definitely be accommodating for the sake of money."

Seeing that the man stuffed some tickets into each guard, Lu Yu went in with a smile, and couldn't help muttering a few words.

"What camera?"

Lan Qi on the side heard Lu Yu's words and asked curiously.

Lu Yu ignored it, and directly took her to jump off the roof and walk towards the city gate.

Seeing Lu Yu, who was fully armed and carrying the Skyfire Sword, the guards were not nervous, but cheered up and gave away extra money.

The inner city is good, but the consumption is a bit high. With the wages of their guards, they can only live an ordinary life. Now they have very stable extra money, so how can they not be happy.

"Hey, you also want to bring your female companion to see the venue. You have to pay for that too."

When Lu Yu approached, a guard whispered.

"Of course, the money, you take care of it."

As he said that, Lu Yu took out a stack of money that he thought was similar to the man just now, and gave it to the guards.

After all, it is "borrowed" money, and it is generous to spend it. The amount of money in his stack is too large. These guards feel that they have encountered local tyrants in the outer city. They are so generous, so they politely send the benefactor into the city , I still hope that he will have the opportunity to sneak into the inner city again in the future, and I don't think much about why he is so rich and still lives in the outer city.

Entering the inner city, the buildings in front of you are obviously much taller and more beautiful than those in the outer city, and they are not crowded and quite spacious.

It was already late at night, but the inner city was still bustling and noisy. There were people everywhere on the street, and their identities were easy to distinguish. Those who raised their chests and raised their heads proudly were awakened soldiers, and those who bowed and nodded flatteringly were ordinary tribesmen who served them.

Because the selection of god fighters will start tomorrow, the awakened fighters living in the inner city are almost excited and have no mood to sleep. A short sleep will have no effect.

Lu Yu also saw people drinking, going to the Spring Building, and gambling. It seemed that they all wanted to relax before the game, or they knew they had no chance of being elected and took advantage of the excitement to come out and have fun.

Lu Yu was not interested in any of these, so he walked quickly towards the Pagoda, and at the same time grabbed Lan Qi's hand to prevent her from being chased away by the crowd.

Although I was tired from trotting, but being held by Lu Yu, I felt happy in my heart, and it seemed that I was not so tired.

Soon, after turning a few street corners, Lu Yu saw the Prayer Tower, which was much higher than the city wall.

It has a simple and elegant shape and is made up of layers of cylindrical towers from large to small. Each layer is dozens of meters high.

The diameter of the tower body on the bottom floor is more than one thousand meters, and the diameter of the tower body on the top floor is also more than 500 meters. Except for the tower body on the top floor, there are some small windows on the other tower bodies for ventilation, and there is also a huge window. The wooden doors, which are made of a wood that is extremely hard after being fired, these doors are closed at this time
The entire body of the Baitian Pagoda is carved out of a kind of pure white rock. It is said that it was originally a high mountain, and it was dug like this by the ancestors of the Baitian tribe from generation to generation.

It is also said that it is because of the tallest building in the plain surrounded by mountains that the god of the sky is attracted to bless the worship tribe.

Surrounding the Baitian Tower is a huge ring-shaped square with a width of hundreds of meters, which is the place where the trials will be held tomorrow.

The inner city is tight on the outside and loose on the inside. At this time, there are no people in the square, and there are no guards. After all, people who live in the inner city have visited it countless times. Only some people from the outer city who paid money to come in are observing here. environment of.

Lu Yu also pretended that he was here to investigate the scene, and he slowly approached the Tianbai Tower. From Lan Qi's mind-reading technique on the awakened warrior in the inner city, he learned that the leader, his wives and concubines lived in the tower, as well as many maids. and "The Unsullied".

The so-called Unsullied refers to the eunuchs. They were adopted and brainwashed by the leader since they were young. They are extremely loyal. They are all awakened warriors with strong strength. They are responsible for defending the Pagoda and doing some shameful things for the leader.

Although the proportion of female awakenings is the same as that of males, most of the awakened abilities are auxiliary abilities, usually healing, so most of the powerful awakened fighters are male.

The Unsullied can ensure that when there is only one man at the head of the Batian Tower, his women will not have any problems, so that they don't have to wear a green hat.
