Chaos Crossing the Otherworld
Chapter 79
Kama is one of the lowest ranks of commoners in Delari. In his 30s, he relies on his family skills to make ends meet by sewing clothes, repairing shoes, and doing some manual labor for the people around him.
Because of long-term fatigue, he in his 30s looks almost as old as a person in his 50s, with wrinkles all over his face.He also has a wife, two children, and an old man at home.Fortunately, his two children are not young, they are 12 and 14 years old.I can help him a little bit.Otherwise, I don't know if his body can resist it.
According to the tradition of the Bright Continent, children can be sent to learn Dou Qi or other skills when they are 4 years old. There are many schools for children to learn in every city.But because the family is poor and cannot afford the tuition fees, they are allowed to stay at home and help themselves with some work.In fact, he also knows that the two children in his family are very young to learn skills and become warriors or magicians.Just because he was sensible, he didn't open his mouth to talk to himself.
Every time he sees the envious eyes of his own child secretly looking at other children who are studying, he feels heartbroken.But what else could he do besides working harder.Moreover, living here, in addition to the necessary living expenses, it is more necessary to pay protection fees to those underworld forces.I spent a lot of my hard-earned money.Otherwise, your children don't have to envy others.Every time he thought of this, the weak Kama cursed in his heart those who forcibly took away his hard-earned money would die a terrible death.It's a pity that they have always lived well.
Kama got up early this morning just after dawn as usual.Get ready to make breakfast for the family before they wake up.Today is the first day after Paul's Day and the first day of the New Year.According to the custom, eat something good today, tomorrow and the day after tomorrow, so as to start the new year well and bring good luck.For this reason, Kama also reluctantly spent 10 silver coins to buy some Warcraft meat that he would never even think about, and came back to give everyone a taste.
10 silver coins. For a family like theirs, it is no problem to save a little for more than a week. If you save a little more, you can even use it for two or three weeks.No wonder he feels distressed.Because the amount of meat is limited, the five members of the family were divided according to the portion yesterday, and each person had a little. He was not willing to eat at that time, so he secretly kept it.Just in time to give them another meal this morning, albeit with a smaller portion.
Just waking up, the sleepy Maka suddenly found something in the middle of the house that dazzled his eyes, which caused him to open them a little, and immediately closed them again.He shook his head vigorously, and rubbed his eyes with his hands full of calluses. After confirming that he was fully awake, he opened his eyes again, and turned towards the direction where the dazzling light came from just now. look.
With the help of the light coming in from outside, Kama, who was awake, saw clearly the thing that dazzled his eyes, that is, because he saw the thing clearly, Kama asked "Hmm?" in surprise.Then he rubbed his eyes vigorously, several times.Then I looked at that place again, and the result was the same as before.Still a little unbelievable, he started rubbing his eyes again, and last time he rubbed harder and longer.Until Kama felt his eyes hurt a little.When I opened my eyes again, the situation remained unchanged.
This time Kama didn't "rub" his eyes anymore, but trembling in surprise, he walked slowly towards the center of the house.His eyes that were red from rubbing were fixed on a spot in the center of the house.And in that position, there was a small pile of gold coins and a few low-level magic cores.
Clutching several gold coins tightly with trembling hands, Kama pinched his legs severely a few times.Reconfirm that you are not dreaming.Not counting those magic cores, the pile of gold coins alone is estimated to be seven to eight hundred pieces!Seven or eight hundred gold coins!That is seventy-eight million copper coins!
For Kama, who only spent a dozen or twenty copper coins a day, that was an astronomical sum!Enough to keep him going for decades! "The child can go to school at last." This was the first thought of Maka, who was in a difficult mood.In the city of Delari, a situation like Kama is happening in every poor family!
In the center of Delari City, there is a huge house covering an area of more than 1000 square meters. The all-white style is very solemn. On the gate of this house, there is a large plaque that reads three A strong and powerful typing "City Lord's Mansion"!
That's right, this is the City Lord's Mansion, the City Lord's Mansion in Delaware City. Because this is the outermost city and a second-tier city, although the City Lord's Mansion is large, it is not very magnificent. It is just like ordinary middle-class nobles. The decoration of the house is similar. There are dozens of noble houses in Delari City, all of which are bigger and more splendid than it!
In this white city lord's mansion, in a study room, a middle-aged man in his 50s with a square face exuding majesty and righteousness, wearing a white robe and casual clothes Sitting on the edge of the desk, he was reading a book in his hand. From his deeply frowned brows, it could be seen that the contents of the book troubled him a lot.
It's getting slightly brighter now, but the magic lamp on his desk is still on.Clearly, he's a sleeper.But this middle-aged man has the strength of the peak of the holy rank, so staying up late is nothing to him.
"Beep, beep" several hasty knocks on the door interrupted the old man's thoughts.He frowned slightly, he knew that the guards in the mansion had been strictly trained by him, and they were very calm when encountering situations, so if he knocked on his door in such a hurry today, did something serious happen?Thoughts flashed through my mind. "Come in," he called to the door while putting down the notebook in his hand.
As soon as the middle-aged man finished shouting, the door was hurriedly pushed open, and a warrior in armor, about 30 years old, came to the middle-aged man's desk in three steps as if two steps.Then he made a one-knee salute to the middle-aged man, and then said to the middle-aged man in a very respectful tone: "My subordinates refer to the city lord."
Before he entered the door, he glanced at the desk slightly, and saw the magic lamp that was still on, and a pile of middle-aged people piled up on the table, that is, the city lord of Delaware just holding The same notebook, and seeing the frown of the city lord, he easily thought of the situation of the city lord, "The city lord must have been thinking about the three underground gangs in Delari city all night." !"
The underground forces in the city are exploiting the common people in the city. If the city lord hadn't been in the middle of the burden, I don't know what the suffering of those common people would be like.This is a good city lord. In order to find a way to eliminate those underground forces, especially the three major forces represented by the Wind Wolf Gang, he often thinks hard day and night.Such a person can't help being respected! "This day is coming to an end," the young man who just came in thought very excitedly.
"Get up first. It's so abnormal today, what happened?" The middle-aged man asked the young man who was kneeling alone with a smile. "City Lord, I just got the news that the leaders of the Wind Wolf Gang and the other two gangs, as well as some elders of the other gangs, died inexplicably last night!" After standing up, he gestured with his hands while talking, feeling a little dancing.
And the city lord didn't pursue his indecentness, and didn't even notice his unusual behavior, but anxiously said to him: "What? Say it again?". "I just got the news that the leaders of the Wind Wolf Gang and the other two gangs, as well as some elders of the other gangs, died inexplicably last night!" Looking at the shocked City Lord, the young man said it again proudly.
In fact, he was also very surprised when he heard the news from others just now, and his reaction was bigger than that of the city lord.But it's rare to see the city lord who is very calm in any situation lose his composure, so he laughed.He also knew that this matter was very big, so he rushed over to report the news.
Of course, the city lord saw the young man's smile and knew his gaffe, but he was in no mood to pay attention to it now.The young man in front of him was cultivated by himself, so there is no doubt about his loyalty. The city lord also knew that he dared not lie to deceive himself, but he subconsciously asked, "Is this true?".
"My lord, it's true, it's very true, and I even heard that not only their leader and elders died, but also the treasuries of the three gangs were looted!" The young man said with a big grin.If it wasn't for the fact that the city lord usually trained him too strictly, he would definitely laugh like crazy now. He was too strong, and his reaction was exactly the same as his back then. He even asked the same question, "Does he have the potential to be a city lord too? Think cheerfully.
Ignoring the young man's sniggering, he took a deep breath to calm down his excited mood, and then his brain started to run fast. Within a few seconds, the light in his eyes flashed, and then he looked at the young man who was still grinning. Slap on the top of the head, and then said to him: "Laugh, laugh, laugh, I will clean you up later, go and tell the chief guard to gather all the mobile troops in the city, gather at the gate of the city lord's mansion, let them hurry up, When it exceeds half mana, it will be dealt with as a military uniform, and someone will notify the deputy city lord and several generals, and they will also come to gather, let them put on their armor and prepare for battle! Go quickly!"
The city lord, who had calmed down, gave him several orders in a row, and ignored him after he finished, and walked quickly to his room, because his armor and weapons were kept there!
As he walked into the room, he thought in his heart: "This time, we must completely eliminate those three gangs! We must not let them have the slightest chance to stand up!" He has been the lord of Delari City for more than ten years, The three gangs have been fighting secretly for more than ten years. Those three gangs have made the entire city of Delaware a mess, and the people are fish and meat.
He had wanted to uproot them all a long time ago, but because the strength of the three gangs is too strong, especially the leader of the Wind Wolf Gang, who is comparable to himself and has the strength of the peak of the holy rank, if it were not for the three gangs. There is suspicion, the city lord himself is really not an opponent.Although I don't know who killed the leaders of these three gangs this time and how.
But this is a very good opportunity for me, the opportunity I dreamed of, of course I can't let it go, as for the others, after pulling out these three cancers, it's not too late to look for them slowly.And now it's just dawn, and most people are sleeping, which can minimize the panic of the people.
In this way, many people who just got up saw many troops running fast in the city, and soon there were shouts of killing.They were so scared that they quickly hid in the bed again.
When the city lord received the young man's report, people in many other places in Delari City also received the same report, but most of them just sighed and did not take any other actions. Only a small number of people hurriedly Inform the family to pack up their things and prepare to run away.
Delaware City will have a new day on the first day of the new year!This is the sigh in the hearts of all those who got the news.And the two little protagonists in the incident were really lying on the bed and sleeping soundly.Last night, I was so exhausted after running through those houses. Even the little Meteor in the Nascent Soul stage felt a little unworthy.It's hard work no matter what you do.
