Hogwarts time travel

Chapter 91 Slums

"That's it?" Loya looked back, feeling a little unreal.

Risking people to pass the test, just for the 20 yuan?

The fine just now is more than that.

"Those fines they have no share in will eventually be handed over to the royal family."

"And their wages are not high, and they are often in arrears."

Luo Ya understands a little bit, the salary is fixed, and there is no guarantee that he can get it every month, who will work hard?

Like them, they can still guarantee the basic order and prevent tourists from entering the slums indiscriminately. This is already a devotion to their duties.

It is completely understandable to put one or two people into the ghetto and earn some extra money.

However, Luo Ya felt that it was a little outrageous that this country dared to default on the salaries of the army?

Although those few people are fooling around, they are obviously from the military system, and they all carry guns on their bodies. They can't get their monthly salary?

"The army of Scobe Kingdom is divided into two parts. One part is the foreign army, which is recruited outside the palace area. It is responsible for managing the security and maintaining order of the outside world, and often does not get paid; the other is the royal guards, who are directly under the royal family. The army is recruited inside the palace area, with pure blood, generous treatment, and absolute loyalty to the royal family."

"The royal guard will only go out to protect the tax collectors when they collect taxes and the royal family is on tour, and stay in the palace area at other times."

Luo Ya frowned, the army is doing this, isn't it waiting for a rebellion?

But the level of outrageousness of this country is higher than what Loya thought. The leader of the "Salvation Council" mentioned earlier is the former head of the foreign army, and one-third of the members are foreign soldiers who cannot survive.

The army took the lead in opposing the royal family, but was suppressed by the royal family. How strong is the royal guard?

Now is the modern age, the army still has guns and chariots (no tanks) no matter how stretched it is, it can’t beat them all. Are the royal guards all saints?

Given that there is still magic in this world, Loya wonders if the royal family has already mastered a large army of wizards.

Loya has always believed that wizards should not single-handedly fight against people, but should form a legion. Everyone has seen the power. Loya's dozens of magic wands can easily change the terrain. How spectacular would it be if two wizards used magic together?

That is enough power to change the world.

Loya suddenly had the urge to visit the palace area.

But he still suppressed it for the time being. If he wants to go, he should wait until everything is settled. Then he will run back to Diagon Alley, and no one will find him.

There are also rich and poor in the slums. The stronger ones can live in houses built of bricks and stones, while the poorer ones can only live in sheds.

These houses with different materials and styles are mixed together. The former house is still built of bricks and stones, and the next one may become a crooked shed.

Except for a straight street running through here, there is no clear road in the slums. The two can only walk in the gaps of the houses. When you look up, you can see the "sky" formed by various houses. Luo Ya actually had a sense of sight in the "Kowloon Walled City".

The planning here is self-formed over time, as if this place has been abandoned, forming a unique ecological environment.

The house is high and low, many stairs pass between buildings and shacks, and many adults and children come and go noisyly.

No one cared about Loya, who was wearing weird clothes. They didn't seem to care about other people's affairs, and life was already very difficult.

Some men stuffed unknown blades of grass into their mouths, moaned lazily, and spread out in the corner like mud.

Some women stood outside numbly, inviting guests, and followed them into the shack behind them.

Some children wrestled with their companions, and the children next to them screamed excitedly, as if this was their only entertainment.

This is a place that Luo Ya has no chance to see, no matter in his previous life or in this life. He has never noticed the dark side.

Although the outside environment is a bit dilapidated, the shadow of modernization can still be seen, and this slum really does not see the slightest trace of modern civilization, it is more like a wasteland left behind by civilization.

"Bart, where does the city gate at the end of that road go?"

"The garbage dump, the garbage generated by the entire city will pass through the south gate, and then dumped into the sinkhole at the south gate."

"Sinkhole?"

"You're interested in it? You're not going to like it. It's a bottomless pit that came out many years ago. There's just garbage, endless garbage. Oh, and you can see some scavengers."

Luo Ya is too lazy to ask why there are scavengers. Without the time of tourists, it seems that there are not many jobs without scavengers.

Bart took Loya to a clothing store, and there was a shabby clothes hanging crookedly at the door, which meant that clothes were sold here.

The clothing store has two floors. There is only a small counter on the first floor, and a figure is sleeping on it.

Luo Ya suddenly felt very kind. He used to sleep and touch fish like this before.

"Lars, you have business." Bart slammed the counter to wake up the man.

The man is a typical big black man, not like a person who can make clothes.

"Mend clothes or sell clothes?" Big Han Russ rubbed his eyes and asked.

"No, it's clothes shopping," Bart said.

"Huh?" The big man blinked, noticing that Luo Ya was dressed in a strange way compared with this group of people, he was pleasantly surprised.

"Come up, come up! The clothes are all on it."

The big man led them up the creaking stairs. The second floor was a somewhat dark flat floor, and they were lined with cotton robes, which were the most suitable clothing for them here.

It is both heat dissipation and breathable, and it will not be cold at night.

There is a large temperature difference between day and night here, which is perfect for this.

Luo Ya chose three or four pieces, and the big man wrapped them up immediately, and left a special set for Luo Ya to change into.

Soon, Loya changed.

It's time for us to know what Loya looks like now.

Luo Ya's current image is a middle-aged man who looks a bit decadent, with brown messy hair and a slight red mark on his face. Overall, he looks like a middle-aged failed man who has been angered by his wife. Odd, unobtrusive.

He is now wearing a lake-blue robe, and he looks like a native, with no flaws at all.

It's worth mentioning that the boss thought he was giving Loya a large size, but he actually got a small one.

As I said before, the change of consciousness is to change other people's perception of him, and it has not changed Luo Ya's body, so now he is still in the shape of a child, so he has to use hypnosis to influence the boss.

He can of course use consciousness alteration directly to change what he wears in other people's minds.

However, he feels that since he has arrived in a brand new place, it will be a waste of time if he does not wear local clothes.

This is his unique pursuit.
