Chapter 116: Scumbags
The Messiah is a city without walls.
Because it is very important, I have to repeat it again. The Messiah is a city without walls.
The meaning of a city without a wall means that this city is like a modern city in the outside world, with no anti-modern social thing as a wall. The outer edges are some messy and illegal buildings. Or, some buildings that do not look so dazzling and cannot be regarded as scientifically distinctive, messy embellishing on both sides of the road.
For a person who yearns for the Messiah, the Messiah's periphery is undoubtedly very disappointing. There are neither tram neon nor mechanical gears, just like a very normal city-state periphery.
There are no too many electrical facilities, nor any magical facilities. The legendary magic street lights are everywhere, and there is no luxury to arrange the outer periphery of this periphery. As for the railway tracks, don't even think about it. The outer periphery of the Messiah is no different from the small villages reunited around the castle. In addition to the road conditions slightly better than other places, and the steel signs that appear from time to time, no one would have thought that the Messiah city was about fifty kilometers ahead. It was like being in mythology, the most prosperous paradise in the world with technology and magic.
The surrounding houses and alleys looked like there was no one from a distance. The wind whistled and rolled up a few pieces of floating paper. When Gaogen and his group walked on this quiet and uninhabited road, they were like stepping into a dead city. They were completely unaware of the existence of even a living person here. There was a kind of silence like death everywhere.
"This feeling of being empty is so disgusting..."
Looking at the construction of the city and construction force, it was like a dark building that was approaching corpses. Alice, who was standing on the carriage, frowned in disgust, and her ruby-like eyes were full of disgust.
She thought of some not very good memories. She had just become a supernatural creature in the local area before. The endless walking zombies that followed were almost the deepest memory of Middle-earth in the little girl's head. The depth of that memory even exceeded the memory of the supernatural creatures she inherited.
"Of course this kind of place feels like this. It would be better to say that they can jump around and jump around than my surprise."
He held a slender cigarette in his mouth, wore a conspicuous black windbreaker, and was striking red hair that could be seen clearly three miles away. Gao Gen was like a young man who failed to pretend to be cool, wearing a black broken finger glove and crossed his legs on the roof of the carriage. He held a whip in one hand, and sat bored on the roof of the carriage shed, whipping the unlucky horse below.
The two horses, who were not good horses, looked back at the masters on them, hoping to be tolerant and not always beat them. But the unscrupulous master completely ignored their prayers and was still sucking their butts.
"This group of scum must be waiting for people to come out in the corners of those alleys."
He neighed and sucked the whole cigarette, feeling the freshness and regaining his body's feelings. Gao Gen squinted his eyes and shivered. He threw the cigarette butts to the side of the road, which was a look of Alice's increasingly contemptuous look.
"This place is only about fifty kilometers away from the Messiah city. Most of the people living here are idle people, people who are not accepted by the Messiah, or a group of social scum who are opportunistic and want to get nothing. The farmers basically don't live nearby. What can you expect these scumbags to do? Of course, they are waiting for the convoy to come and get some stuff."
He spitted a mouthful of saliva with a little gray-brown substance at the side of the car. Gaogen looked at the shadows of the buildings over there and said contemptuously.
He knew too well the methods of these social scumbags.
There are almost no good things for those who can come to this Messiah to settle in scattered places and form residences. Although there may be some victims of political or technological struggles, the rest of them are all scum of human society.
I hope to get something for nothing, and I hope to return to the rich Messiah city through the nearby convoy. They are not working hard and are idle all day long. Setting up some simple roadblocks to block the caravans and collect tolls is their most common method. As for some unethical people, they even start to snatch the caravans when others are not paying attention at night, which makes people lose all their money.
"It's not that right? Then who will walk from here? Isn't this digging a grave?" Looking at the shadow gradually approaching, the girl in a princess dress said in disbelief: "It's impossible that they can't even know the continued development, right?"
"If you don't believe it, just take a look at the methods of these social scum."
Gao Gen, who picked up a cigarette again, looked at Alice's delicate little face and grinned. He whipped another whip under the horse's sad eyes. This little carriage, which was not a gorgeous one, gradually moved forward like a gathering place that looked empty.
When the horse's hooves stepped on the road, it made a very heavy "click" sound. Listening to such a sound in this small area, everyone nearby realized that a carriage was coming. It was like a switch was turned on in an instant, and the originally quiet street became lively in an instant. The death-like gathering point suddenly became active.
A group of ragged people popped their heads in those dark buildings, their eyes looking at the convoy slowly moving in the distance with some greed. There were also suspicious children coming out of the alley, looking at the convoy sneakily.
"I really didn't expect that even in this place there would be such people..."
Looking at the dirt-faced heads protruding out from the alleys and buildings, Alice, who was sitting on the carriage, curled her lips with disgust. Her fair palms pinched the corner of the princess' skirt, and subconsciously pressed the dagger at the base of her thighs.
Although it wasn't enough to pounce on it directly, the eyes of those people were really disgusting.
The greedy flame in the eyes was almost uncovered and looked at the huge convoy. Not only the beautiful Alice, but more of the gaze was on the carriage itself. Although the flames looked a little bit smaller when the armed winter melons on the cars behind them, they saw the metallic color under the canvas, and the greedy feelings in the eyes of the scum of the humans became more and more vigorous.
The team of dwarves, the luster of metal. What do these things represent?
It is obvious that it represents the forged items of the dwarves and the masterpieces of the dwarves. Whether it is weapons, machinery, or armor, these things are fine products forged by dwarves, rather than shoddy things made by humans.
In other words, it represents a large number of gold coins.
Just thinking about this, the flames in the eyes of these scumbags of human society became even hotter. The snoring sound of breathing even made the dwarf warriors in the carriage behind frown in disgust. It was like seeing a group of tangled maggots, making people feel numb all over, and a disgusting feeling emerged from their minds.
"Let's go, go to the hotel first. Rest for a day before going to the Messiah."
Looking at the pile of social scumbags whose eyes were almost bursting with flames, Gao Gen smiled contemptuously.
Under the shocked gaze of the little princess behind her, Gao Gen deliberately raised his tone and said loudly. He waved his whip and drove the carriage toward the increasingly remote and rugged paths. Looking at the figures of the building who were still strong and unfast and running into the depths of the alley, Gao Gen smiled happily.
