Chapter 536 Goodbye Human! News About the Super Large Gathering Place!

The last time he walked to this nearly twenty-meter-high wall, Sumo just looked at it briefly for fear of exposing himself, and then immediately looked away. Google search reading

Today, under the leadership of Turner, Xinhuo Exchange is not what it used to be.

For the first time, Sumo finally had the time and opportunity to raise his head and measure the rough details of this high wall.

Like the city wall outside Liberty City, the high wall is also made of this dark red masonry, which is constantly absorbing light under the sunlight.

In terms of defense, the entire high wall did not use an external watchtower, but instead used embedded observation windows.

Every thirty meters or so, there will be a gap. From time to time, people from the escort team will poke their heads out to observe the situation in the neighborhood outside.

In terms of overall defense strength, the high wall can only be regarded as average, and is at the stage of guarding against gentlemen but not against villains.

But if you add the eyeball in the center of the wall that is somewhat similar to the Blackstone Camp, the entire wall instantly loses its grandeur.

On the contrary, there is an indescribable strange feeling that makes people shudder.

Seeing the hint of complexity in Hao Qiang's eyes, Turner misunderstood and explained: "Friend Hao Qiang, you don't have to worry. It's a big deal for a mercenary to privately release his identity by others. Small and small”

"I see that your mark is blue, and you don't seem to know the rules here. You should be one of the people who left when our city was not fully built before it first arrived, right?"

Speaking of this, Hao Qiang could only nod.

Turner patted his chest: "Now you don't have to worry anymore. After the Free City was built, the lord introduced the policy of mercenaries to maintain the concentration of the territory. You can use the excuse that you haven't been back for a long time to excuse it. Let's talk about it. , you come back to pay the fine, it will create revenue for the territory, and with me and Harl protecting you, there will be no problem! "

While talking, after turning a corner, a gate appeared under the high wall.

Unlike the city gate that was guarded before, the gate under the high wall only had ordinary door stones, and no one was seen.

But when the three of them entered, they were greeted by two uniformed staff members.

A man and a woman, both are standard fox people, with slender figures and fine looks, exuding a charming aura.

After observing the gender of the three people, the leading man stepped back and the woman stepped forward, bowing deeply: "Welcome you three adults to the inner city. We are responsible for arranging casual guides for you. Please give way first." Let me verify the information so that we can arrange the best service and guidance for you."

Like other entertainment service organizations in Liberty City, Fox Girl is releasing her innate aura whether she speaks or bows.

But unfortunately, facing two dwarves and a modified man whose lower body was made of iron, her temptation failed miserably.

As Turner pressed his hand on his mark, Sumo immediately copied his operation in a decent manner.

Wow!

A simple message was shot out through the air through the mark. After sensing the receiving end, it flew into the receiver on the back of the fox girl's hand.

Then the fox girl skillfully lowered her head and retrieved the received information. Her expression changed slightly and she bowed again: "Master Hal, Master Turner, you are a distinguished guest in our Free City. You can enjoy the purple mark treatment in the inner city. Please follow me!"

In Liberty City, the sense of superiority brought by the imprint level is everywhere reflected.

Although the color of the two people's marks is still blue, internally, it was adjusted to purple by the guards, which is a big compensation.

"Okay, lead the way, we really need some good mercenaries"

"And help the guy next to me deal with his identity issue!"

"OK!"

Walking about a hundred meters along the city gate, the view becomes wider again.

The buildings that can be seen on the roadside are full of people inside, carrying items that cannot be traded outside the city.

For example, everyone's daily fixed ration, a lumpy plant that can be made into paste, is piled up in a hill here like garbage on the roadside.

There are constantly large trucks responsible for loading, and then pulling them to a fixed location outside the city for sale.

There are also a lot of rare ores for making weapons and protective equipment here.

With just one look, Sumo saw several high-grade ores glowing with a faint blue light, randomly placed on the floor of the shop, allowing the escorts to choose as they pleased.

Rare medicinal materials, high-end plants, weird technological items

The further they walked, as if Grandma Liu had entered the Grand View Garden, the more Sumo felt about the Demon Soul Clan's heritage.

There are two worlds inside and outside the high wall, with a clear dividing line between poverty and wealth.

Outside, there is a decaying empire that can be destroyed with just one poke. It seems like anyone can destroy it.

Inside, there are tangled and deep-rooted underwater icebergs, making it difficult to see where the real end is.

With eyeballs hanging high on the city walls for surveillance, things in the inner city are not afraid of being stolen.

Along the way, after turning several corners and coming to a strange building with only walls but no door to enter, the fox girl suddenly stopped and made a gesture of invitation:

"Master Hal, I don't know whether you should deal with this person's identity first or go first."

"Let's go see the other mercenaries first, and then we'll deal with their identities together!"

"OK!"

Nodding again, the fox girl stretched out her hand and slowly waved at the wall. The originally closed building wall suddenly cracked open, revealing the passage leading to the bottom.

Noticing that Su Mo's eyes fell on the inside of the passage, the fox girl explained: "The original open-air mercenary paradise, considering that people from the Empire of Light often come to invade, it is not convenient to manage, so we have moved it here, and set up several new projects. There are not only our demon souls who have lost their marks, but also other wild aliens, which can be purchased."

"And we have made more changes based on the rules set by the lord to ensure the rights and interests of the buyers."

"In the past, the master could only manage the life and death of the mercenaries. It seems very strict, but in fact, according to our investigation, the people used Very few, and many accidents have occurred."

"So we modified it so that as long as it is purchased, the owner can freely check the mercenary's movement route within three days, and at the same time, can also retrieve the creatures that the mercenary has recently contacted through the mark."

"As for the mercenaries, we set up countermeasures through other rules on the premise that the mercenaries cannot harm the owner. For example, after the owner has issued a rule that the mercenaries cannot talk to strangers at will, once the mercenaries violate it, their right to use the mark will be immediately suspended."

"In other aspects, we have done the same."

On the way to the underground through the deep stairs, the fox girl kept talking about the newly improved rules.

From the owner's jurisdiction over the mercenaries, to the mercenaries' loyalty options to the owner, to the design of each detail.

From the inside out, the entire system has undergone earth-shaking changes.

If it is said that before, this initial mercenary elimination system established by the Demon Soul Clan Lord was a helpless move to force everyone to move and go out to make money.

Then it has evolved to the present, and finally embarked on another wrong path, becoming more and more out of control, revealing the true purpose of exploitation below.

After becoming a mercenary, it is basically equivalent to losing all rights, even the right to commit suicide is forcibly deprived.

In addition to helping the master work hard and praying that the master can redeem himself one day, the mercenary will have no other choice.

After listening to all the rules, Su Mo grasped the key point: "Can other aliens be purchased, but how to ensure that they are also governed by the rules?"

The fox girl shook her head in surprise: "Hey, Lord Hal is going to take other aliens out to work? This is not possible. They have no marks and cannot be restrained, which will harm the rights and interests of the master!"

"We can only ensure that the identity information of these aliens has not been collected and sold by others. In other words, Lord Hal can get first-hand information and make it into templates to sell."

"As for their lives, after the purchase and information collection, the master can continue to sell them here for the second time. At the same time, we can also be responsible for sending them out of the city and letting the master decide whether to stay or go!"

"In short, they can't live in the city!"

After listening to the fox girl's introduction, Su Mo nodded undeniably.

As expected, the Demon Soul Clan did not open the most important mark to others.

However, it was no different from what the fox girl said. No one would put a time bomb next to them.

For the Demon Soul Clan, with better mercenaries and replaceable templates, they did not need alien slaves to work.

The biggest role of these slaves that can be bought and sold is to be squeezed dry of all information to form a template for easy sale.

"We are here. Next, please do not get in close contact with mercenaries and slaves who have no relationship with you to prevent unnecessary risks."

"Of course, during the purchase process, we also hope that guests will not conflict with others, so as not to ruin everyone's shopping experience!"

At the end of the corridor, after another fox man interacted with the door verification, the door that blocked the view opened with a bang, revealing the scene inside.

Even though he had been here to buy mercenaries before, Turner still exclaimed: "Oh, this is really big!"

"Yes, this is not only where we trade mercenaries on weekdays, but also where we transfer civilians after the battle"

"The entire space can accommodate about 100,000 people!"

Somewhat similar to the ground buildings, the underground blocks are brightly lit, as bright as day.

In addition, on both sides of the extremely long road, there are also various mercenary exchanges to attract passing customers

At first glance, the flow of people here is not small, even slightly stronger than the Xinhuo Exchange, where the block is located

But after careful observation, Su Mo keenly discovered the mystery inside.

Just like other people outside who buy and sell commodities and gene stocks every day, more than 90% of these surging people also have this idea.

They buy different types of mercenaries every day and sell them after a few days in order to make a profit from the price difference

They are both commodities, but one trades things and the other trades people. With the price list released by the exchange every day, the ground and the underground are extremely harmonious in this regard.

"Master Hal, Master Turner, I can only accompany you here. If you are satisfied with our service, please..."

"Okay, go ahead. Here are 50 contribution points. Take two!"

Before the fox girl could finish speaking, Turner, who was familiar with the situation, took the initiative to interrupt the conversation between the two and tipped generously.

Then, watching the two happily returning along the original path to lead the next wave of guests, Sumo smiled and looked away.

"The mercenaries we bought last time are really rubbish. They were infiltrated so easily. This time we have money, why not just go to the back and buy some good ones?"

You get what you pay for, and in this free city, this rule applies in most cases.

Pointing to the exchange where the two of them bought mercenaries last time, and pointing to the exchange at the back where there were fewer people but the decoration was obviously a higher level, Turner gritted his teeth and said.

"Don't worry, let's take a look around first. Good ones don't mean loyalty. Besides, what we need now is not thugs, but people who work. We don't need such good ones!"

"In this case, let's transfer separately. Keep the people who meet the requirements in mind first, and then we will gather together and slowly select."

Turner nodded: "That's fine. I have nothing to do this afternoon anyway. Let me go to the back first and take a look?"

"good!"

After agreeing on an agreed time, the three of them separated.

Turner walked straight to the big store at the back, while Hao Qiang joined in the fun and went to the exchange with the most people.

Looking at the turbulent flow of people drowning the two figures, Sumo shook his head, turned around and walked into the shop closest to the main entrance, where the Xingyue Exchange was hung.

"Hey, this is a rare visitor. Master Hal, please come in!"

As soon as he entered the door, the servant responsible for recruiting guests greeted him enthusiastically.

Except for some refugees outside the city, no one who is well-informed is unfamiliar with the owner of the Fire Exchange, who has recently become famous in Liberty City.

Even the other demon soul tribesmen who had purchased Hal's dwarf craftsman before, after the wind changed, they threw the template into the cold palace with tears in their eyes.

"Come see the mercenaries and lead the way!"

"Okay~"

Unlike goods that can be placed on shelves.

Before a mercenary has an owner, due to its uncertainty, he will basically be imprisoned in a dungeon, covered with chains that restrict his activities.

Following the servant's lead, they came all the way to the back hall, and after passing through a downward passage, the two came to the dungeon below the ground.

A room of about three square meters is the living space for everyone detained here.

Watching Somo come down, after seeing the short dwarf body, most people just raised their heads and then dropped them weakly again.

Obviously, in the hearts of mercenaries, the identity of dwarf inherently represents poverty!

Ignoring the performance of these people, he walked from beginning to end and memorized all the mercenary information. Without any communication, Somo returned to the first floor again.

Most of the mercenaries of Xingyue Exchange are good at hard work, and not many have bright minds.

If such people can be brought to the depressions, they will be a good cheap labor force, which can quickly speed up the formation of the disaster-resistant base.

But in this free city where social interaction is a must, the "fool" is the one who doesn't pay the most.

Shaking his head, Somo walked into the exchange on the opposite side again, and followed the order and began to browse quickly.

Along the way, unlike others, Sumo just watched and briefly recorded the recorded information in his mind, then left immediately.

On the way, only when he encountered an exchange selling other alien races, he would stop to take a look and ask questions.

But unfortunately, after visiting seven or eight exchanges, there is still very little information that can be obtained from other aliens.

"Hey, Hao Qiang, have you finished all the shopping behind you?"

According to the length of the block, the exchanges on this street alone are no less than fifty. Even if you just take a look at them, it will take at least half a day.

As soon as he walked out of the ninth house, Sumo was surprised to see Hao Qiang waiting at the door and looking at him.

"No, I only visited three of them. The shopkeeper made a major discovery!"

"oh?"

Seeing Hao Qiang's shocked expression, Su Mo frowned and walked casually to a place with few people.

After a while, they came to a neighborhood with few people, found an exchange at random, and the two of them walked in.

Then, after sending away the servants, he chose to go shopping by himself.

In the passage, Hao Qiang came up:

"Director, the problem is huge. When I was walking around the exchange at the back just now, I saw one of our own. Yes, it's human!"

"This is better than not knowing if he is insane. When he saw me entering, he shouted at me that he had information about the human gathering place. As long as I bought him, he would tell me everything!"

Hearing this, Sumo paused: "News about the human gathering place?"

"Yes, he said he knows the location of a very large human gathering place with about 30,000 people!"

"And the trouble is, according to his vague description, this location happens to be within a thousand kilometers southeast of our depression!"
