I'm a villain, not a devil

"Is that place really reliable?"

"The rumors are quite true. I heard that the technicians who went there first were treated very well... and even had meat to eat every day!"

Hearing the word "meat", this mighty group of people swallowed involuntarily.

They are composed of more than a dozen families and come from Sin City, a city 3,200 kilometers away from Paradise City. The city that should be called their hometown can only be described as hopeless.

As highly skilled personnel, their lives in Sin City were not easy.

After a tiring day's work, they can only get food rations and house rent for the whole family. Other expenses require hard work by other family members. Their youngest child is only six years old and already needs to sneak out to pick up some parts.

Even so, there are still many dangers in Sin City. Walking on the streets after eight o'clock in the evening is tantamount to announcing to the surrounding gangs, gangsters, predators, etc.: I am a brainless fat sheep, take me back.

The two daughters at home are beautiful, but they dare not go out at all - more than 70% of the women in this place have been forced by strangers.

What's even more frightening is that the walls of Sin City are in vain. The reason that prompted this large number of people to make the decision to move is simple - several families with whom they have good relationships were snatched away by crazy beasts that rushed into the inner city within a month. .

Expensive rent costs, but even basic life safety cannot be guaranteed...

They couldn't afford to hire the few reputable security companies in Sin City, so they had to drain all their wealth from a dozen families and hire two well-known opponents to protect them.

The destination was originally supposed to be another city, but there has been a lot of news about Paradise City recently. They gritted their teeth and finally decided to come here.

Only here it sounds promising.

The two vetoes in charge of security were quite easy to talk to. They heard their employer's discussion and said casually: "About twenty years ago? We went to Paradise City. To be honest, it was just a little better than Sin City. After so many years, It’s probably not much better.”

The middle-aged man who was promoted to be the leader of the relocation team showed a hint of worry. He handed over a few sticks of low-quality tobacco in a flattering manner and asked carefully: "Brother, what do you say?"

After lighting up the tobacco and smoking it, the vetoer exhaled the smoke and said calmly: "We brothers have escorted a family here before. To be honest, if we run out of money to move, you may have to do hard work in the suburbs at first. That place There are several batches of crazy beasts a day."

The faces of the crowd suddenly turned pale.

The middle-aged man wriggled his lips: "But the news said that Paradise City is in urgent need of reconstruction, and there are preferential treatment for technical personnel..."

"Haha, don't you have to say this if you want to deceive people? Haha, can there be such a good city lord in this world?" the vetoer sneered.

He took another deep breath: "Don't blame me for not reminding you. The security in Paradise City is indeed better, but the heart is just as dirty as Sin City, and there are still 180... By the way, there is still a big crack in Paradise City. Hey, we have to get an antidote in half a year, which is quite expensive."

There was a burst of noise from the crowd, and in just a few words, they began to regret whether they had chosen the wrong destination.

"By the way, there is Sean, the current second-in-command in Paradise City -" mentioning this name, the two opponents shook their heads, "This is a completely ruthless person, just the news that leaked to us There are some things about him...oh, scary."

"I heard he's only in his early twenties. Do you know what people in other city-states call Sean?"

The veto showed his yellow teeth in the horrified eyes of a group of people: "Hey, Nightmare Sean - if you are targeted by that kind of guy, nightmares will shine into your reality, and death will become relief. This kind of person controls The place, ha, I won’t even go if you give me money.”

After describing it, the group of people who fled were completely dumbfounded.

I’ve only heard that Paradise City’s welfare is very good, but I’ve never heard of this news…

This...is it still too late to turn around and go to the Sunken Port?

They were afraid that it would be too late, as they did not have enough money to go to the nearest sunken port... And as they walked, they had already seen other people traveling the same way.

Some were technicians who had moved here like them, and some were caravans with a large number of slaves, all kinds of people.

When they see a stranger, they subconsciously adopt a vigilant posture.

The strange thing is that those people just glanced at them, neither spoke to them nor attacked them, but instead accelerated their pace ahead of them.

What's even stranger is that many people have expressions of extreme anticipation on their faces.

"Weird..."

Soon, some of their doubts were expressed.

"That...is a city?!"

What appeared in front of them was a high wall with no visible boundary. The high wall raised one side to leave... a city gate?

Anyway, other people were rushing inside.

The two bodyguards were also dumbfounded: "This is Paradise City? Can Paradise City build this city wall? Bah! Which force in the world can build it?!"

Cautiously approaching the city gate, the travel-worn people received a warm but formal welcome.

"Here, fill out the form, take your fingerprints and irises, and fill in your personal information."

After completing everything as instructed, the staff at the city gate picked up the form and glanced at it a few times, then nodded:

"Skilled workers from Sin City, right... Turn left after entering the door, go to the instructor, and check the specific level. If you are unskilled, turn right to report to the Coordination Department - don't ink, we will assign it to you when we allocate accommodation. together."

They nodded and bowed, responded uneasily, and then finally walked into the city.

Then, everyone was dumbfounded, including the two bodyguards.

So bright...

The warm sunshine falls on the body, making people feel sluggish.

"In Sin City, it takes half a month's salary to bask in the sun for three hours... Here, it's for everyone?"

They stared at it all in disbelief.

Metal creatures called Titans brought huge changes to Paradise City.

It isolates the outside world and the evil dome, like a huge, sturdy tent, giving people an extremely secure feeling.

All the artificial suns in the city have been brought together to bring people in the city a life under the sun that they have never experienced before.

The artificial sun follows the laws of the real sun, sunrise, high shine, and sunset. This is something only found in the data. Now, even the meanest rat in the dirty street can happily enjoy the sunshine on the steps. .

Behind him, there were a few passers-by who looked like locals and showed disdain as usual: "You are a country bumpkin who has never seen the world...Mr. Sean has long given the sun to the entire Paradise City, free of charge!"

The middle-aged man looked at the bodyguard tremblingly: "Didn't you say that, that one is the nightmare..."

Would a nightmare do such a thing?

The bodyguard shook his head blankly, wondering why the world would become so magical just after not seeing each other for twenty years.

"Don't delay, hurry up."
