Mysterious Resurrection: Part 2, Starting with the Faceless Man
Chapter 28 Preliminary Impression of the Inner World
Phil, the scavenger of the world inside the beast.
Born in this dark world since childhood, I often heard my mother say how beautiful the outside world is.
But more than 10 years have passed.
I have never seen what the outside world looks like!
I haven't even left the scavenging area.
I have to work hard to fill my stomach every day, and there is no time to think about other things.
In the past, my mother took care of me, so I had no worries about food and drink.
But after his mother passed away a few years ago, he had to go out to find food himself. Because he was still young and not a professional, he was not qualified for any job, so he finally became a scavenger.
This lasted for several years.
You may not be rich or wealthy, but you can at least support yourself.
The food has been exhausted in recent days.
Finally, I got to the "gift day" and ran to the landing place as fast as possible.
Watching each strong person surpass myself, I have mixed feelings in my heart.
But at this moment.
Suddenly, his body seemed to be tied up by something. Before he could react, his body was pulled in front of a group of people.
thump…!
Kneel down without saying a word.
Survival rules for scavengers: If you see a strong person, avoid it immediately. If you cannot avoid it, be the first to ask for mercy. Only then will you have a glimmer of hope of survival.
"I'm sorry, sir, no offense intended, please forgive me!" His body trembled slightly as he spoke, appearing very nervous.
Everyone looked stunned.
Neither of them thought about the other, so they knelt down and apologized without saying a word.
Kurt glanced around, but no one cared about them arresting people.
The creatures that were closer immediately moved away, for fear of being implicated.
From here it can be seen that this group of people is not a group, but composed of scattered people.
Looking at the thin body in front of him, he said calmly.
"Kid, tell me what's going on here? Where are these people going and what are they planning to do?"
As soon as these words came out, Phil immediately understood the identity of this group of people.
Answer quickly without any hesitation.
"People here are all scavengers. Now is the Gift Day once a month. There are only 6 hours left. Everyone is looking for some useful things to take back and sell!"
While speaking, his eyes looked into the darkness from time to time.
I felt a little anxious. If I didn't get anything this time, I would probably starve to death in the following days.
Thoughts are beautiful, reality is skinny.
Kurt still didn't let him go and asked.
"Why only 6 hours?"
Phil hurriedly pointed to the liquid not far away and said.
"Because in six hours the scavengers will come ashore and they will devour everything on the land."
"The quantity is endless. Only by collecting the supplies and leaving within 6 hours can safety be guaranteed."
described by the other party.
Kurt had an initial understanding of the place.
The so-called gift day is the day when this giant beast eats, once a month.
The passage on the right where they are located does not see much sea water every time, and some items often fall from the sky.
Instead, it became a supply point here.
A small ecological circle was formed.
Although the so-called scavenger hasn't seen anything yet.
But this creature should be a companion of the giant beast, specifically helping the giant beast clean up its internal environment.
Even Kurt had to sigh.
The world's great wonders.
He ordered to the kid.
"Lead the way to where you live!"
When Phil heard this, he immediately panicked.
Bang bang bang bang...! !
He kept kowtowing to the ground and begged.
"Sir, please let me go! If I don't pick up some supplies today, I won't be able to survive in the future!!"
"How about... just wait here! I'll pick up some supplies and come back to show you the way, okay?"
Kurt waved his hand and took back the golden thread.
He said calmly.
"Lead the way! Don't worry about supplies, I will give you some traveling expenses!"
"If you keep talking nonsense, go and die!"
Phil trembled.
Stand up hastily.
"I understand, sir! Please follow me!"
Phil introduced as he walked, hoping that he would perform better and get more rewards from these strong men.
"At our current speed, we can reach the first stronghold in another 20 minutes."
"It's also where scavengers live. Usually it's new people who don't have the skills or who come here through the Gift Day to become scavengers."
"Those who have the ability will continue to move deeper. I only know that there is a small city at the next location where the scavengers live."
"As for the deeper places, I don't know!"
"That's right! Those scavengers riding ferocious beasts came from that small town."
"Everyone is powerful and the best resources have been obtained by them. We can only pick up some soup and water!"
Phil did not lead the crowd in a straight line.
Instead, move forward to the left.
By description.
Here, the closer you get to the landing point, the poorer you get because of all the dangers.
Except for the scavengers.
Sometimes powerful creatures come in on the Day of Boon.
They came in and massacred them.
They, the scavengers, were invisibly blocking the front line, buying time for those behind to assemble.
The pavement underfoot was not really land. Based on the description, Kurt guessed that it might be a substance produced in the body of the giant beast, somewhat similar to gallstones.
No plants can be grown on it.
The most expensive thing here is land, which will be taken away at a high price every time it appears.
No one knows where they went.
The main food here is fungi, which are quite abundant, but not very tasty.
There are also many fungi with special functions.
The eye-catching algae is very cheap, but it is very effective and can give organisms night vision.
It is precisely because of the existence of this thing that scavengers can move freely in the dark.
The crowd was not in a hurry.
After walking for more than 20 minutes, they finally arrived at their destination.
From a distance, you can see a dazzling light ahead.
It is like a bright light in the dark, guiding everyone in the direction.
It was only when they got closer that they could see clearly.
This bright place is a hole in the flesh wall, and the hole is similar to the ancient city gate, but there is no city gate.
There are 5 soldiers in uniform on each side.
Just as everyone was about to enter.
A team of soldiers immediately stepped forward to stop them.
"Ten light coins per person! Otherwise leave!"
Although they have hundreds of people, these soldiers are not afraid at all.
Phil then remembered that Kurt's people had just entered from the outside world and didn't know about the Light Coin.
He hurriedly explained.
"Sir, the Light Coin is the currency for transactions here." While speaking, he took out a round coin the size of a fingernail from his pocket. It was not an exaggeration to describe it as thin as a cicada's wing.
But this little thing exuded a faint light.
He did not sense any special energy fluctuations on the Light Coin.
"You just came in, you may not have these things, you can give them some supplies."
Kurt turned his head to look at Ruel.
The look was self-evident.
Seeing this, Ruel's mouth trembled, and he took off the long knife from his waist and asked Fei'er.
"How many Light Coins can this knife be exchanged for?" The two brothers rarely used knives in battle, and this long knife was picked up casually in the previous battle.
Phil's eyes showed envy.
Unexpectedly.
This strong man actually sold his long knife, and from the surface of the long knife, there was no damage, no difference from a new knife.
But it was only envy for a second.
Replied immediately.
"This long sword is worth at least 20,000!"
Ruel was a little surprised.
I didn't expect that a long sword I picked up casually could be worth 20,000.
Just now, the soldier said that the entry fee only needs ten coins per person. It can be imagined that the purchasing power of one light coin is not too low, otherwise these guards would not be so strict.
He threw the long sword to Phil directly.
"Exchange it for light coins!"
Seeing the long sword flying, Phil was startled and hurriedly caught it.
Explained.
"Don't be so troublesome, these soldiers will give a fair price, but it's just a little lower than the market, you can exchange it directly from him."
"Sir, do you want to exchange it?"
Ruel was a little surprised that the guards would actually trade fairly. You know... many city guards, in addition to the normal entry fee.
Occasionally, when seeing some weaker people, they will even extort some extra money.
Although he was surprised, it was just a broken sword, he didn't care.
"Exchange it!"
Phil took the long sword and negotiated.
Soon, he came back with a small bag.
Let everyone be a little confused.
That small bag couldn't hold 20,000 light coins.
Kurt took the purse and opened it.
Suddenly, a dazzling light came out of the purse.
He looked up and saw the area around the cave.
He found that the light was almost exactly the same as the light in the purse.
He looked at Phil and asked.
"Are the gates surrounded by light coins?"
Phil nodded.
"Yes, sir! Light coins are actually made of scavengers' excrement, which can prevent scavengers from entering."
"As long as the brightness is maintained, scavengers will not break into the gathering place."
"The light coins in the purse are divided by value according to the brightness, but there are also numbers on them."
"Except for some small light coins, the rest are light coins worth 1,000 yuan."
Kurt threw the purse directly to Ruel.
Ruel naturally understood what Kurt meant.
He was about to throw it to Runing. How could he do this kind of thing that his younger brother did?
But just as he was about to throw it...
He suddenly thought of this unreliable younger brother.
Forget it, I'll do it myself!
I don't know how long I'll be here, so I can't spend money carelessly.
If I spend it all, I'll end up like those rag-and-bone scavengers, and that'll be sad.
He took out three ten-yuan light coins from the cloth bag and handed them over.
"Old man, let's go in!"
The people behind him stood there in shock.
I thought I could pay for them by exchanging 20,000 light coins at once.
Who knew that after fiddling with it for a long time, I only paid three people.
But just as I stepped forward.
The soldier still blocked the way ahead, pointing at the cat on Kurt's shoulder.
"Any creature must pay!"
Ruhl could only take out another one.
He couldn't help but mutter.
"Even cats charge, can they be considered human beings?"
Bang...!!!
There was a loud noise.
Ruhl's body hit the flesh wall.
During the whole process, he didn't realize what was going on?
It was not until he saw the cat on Kurt's shoulder, standing upright, with hair all over his body, staring at him intently, that he reacted.
The corners of his mouth twitched slightly.
I used to think that this cat could only promote the growth of plants, but I didn't expect it to be so powerful.
I am a grown man, but I was knocked away by the opponent in an instant.
The soldiers immediately became alert and shouted.
"No trouble here, otherwise don't blame us for arresting you!!"
Kurt waved his hand.
"Sorry, just a little joke!"
After saying that, he walked directly inside.
The thick-skinned Ruhl was not injured either. He jumped down from the flesh wall and followed closely.
Although there is no gate here, everything inside cannot be seen clearly, as if it was wrapped in a huge ball of light.
One step in.
The previous light disappeared instantly.
The world inside the cave was presented to everyone...
