Warhammer Seal

Chapter 368
The Lower City of the Empire is preliminarily judged to be located somewhere in the continent of Europa.

There are many high-rise buildings, and buildings with a height of hundreds of meters have formed a reinforced concrete forest, which is full of various civilians.

Most of them were ragged and malnourished, and they fell in groups on the side of the road. Their slightly heaving chests could still prove that they were alive, only the most humble ones.

Some oil barrels were lit in some shadowy corners, and there were human screams and killing sounds nearby, including the sound of iron bars smashing bones.

It must have been a gang fight, maybe for a woman, maybe just for food.

With the opening of the escape cabin, Wende finally came to the surface of the earth. Sure enough, as the artificial intelligence Ai said, the earth's environment has been destroyed to the verge of collapse.

The air is full of compounds and foul waste.

If you are exposed to this kind of air for more than 3 minutes, you will face the possibility of shortening your lifespan.

The passers-by around were usually only wearing thin cloth or compound leather, and immediately leaned against the side of the road after seeing Wende, not even daring to cast any glances over.

They all thought that Wende, wearing a carbon fiber raincoat, was some upper-class aristocrat who came to the lower city to play a slaughter game, or an inquisitor who went deep into the lower city to find heresy.

That's right, the entire continent of Europa has been built into a hive city with a population of 172 billion, and there is no way to see the sun from the ground.

The aristocrats live in the upper city with more than 100 floors, only there can have fresh air and priority food rationing.

By the way, Wende needs to eat. The stomach of a person who has not eaten for 5000 million years is already rumbling.

There are all kinds of shops and people in the lower city. After discovering that Wende was not carrying a weapon, the people around him let down most of their vigilance.

It seems that this "noble" came to the city to find someone, not to "hunt".

People in the upper city have a habit of wearing the best equipment and weapons, and come to the lower city to shoot people on a large scale, which is called population control.

Perhaps this "noble" needs a little help, especially with intelligence.

At this time, Wende sat outside a restaurant. He said it was a restaurant, but it was actually a tin box with someone cooking in it, and the benches and tables were all beside the table.

Seeing Wende sit down, a waitress immediately came up, and the chain on her feet rattled.

"My lord...what do you want...to order? Our...things...not too many."

He spoke obviously with fear, and he didn't dare to look directly at Wende who was wearing a household air purification mask.

Fortunately, they speak Low Gothic, which is similar to English, and Wende can understand a lot.

"What's there, let me see, and then what do you trade with?"

The waitress immediately took out a menu, put it tremblingly in front of Wende, and then pointed to the price on it.

It's ridiculous. After 40k years of human development, currency has returned to precious metals. Everything is traded in copper coins, silver coins, and gold coins.

As for the food on the menu, although the names are all kinds of strange, there are only three sources in general.

Either the food scraps discarded by the nobles in the upper city, or the excrement that was simply processed, or some synthetic nutritional paste, including corpse starch.

The price also ranges from high to low. The most expensive food is an apple with only one core left. You can feel the aroma of the fruit just by looking at it.

The price is two copper coins, and most people's daily wages are only two copper coins, but for Wende, he has always had the habit of carrying coins with him.

He threw a silver coin at the restaurant owner in exchange for some leftover food from the upper class nobles.

Although it is disgusting, although it looks nauseating, it is also the only source of calories. If you don't eat, you will only starve to death.

One silver coin is so valuable that it buys up all the food scraps in the entire restaurant, and even has a surplus.

Wen De, who barely finished eating, gave his own thoughts to the merchant's apology that he couldn't give change.

"Restore freedom to that waitress, she is no longer a slave."

"Understood, my lord, what you say is what you say."

The shackles under the waitress's feet were opened by the boss, and she, who had been a slave since birth, tasted the taste of freedom for the first time. When she turned around and wanted to thank the adult, she found that he had disappeared.

The watch started to glow, and the artificial intelligence Ai successfully contacted Wende, and it was obvious that she knew all of Wende's activities on the surface.

"You are really kind, you can see that we are on the same front, let all human beings be free."

Wende didn't speak, he had this kind of thought in his heart, he didn't expect that after 40k years of development, human beings would not be as good as the most humble peasants in Altdorf, this made this man who had experienced two eras very emotional, until Ai His words brought him back to reality.

"Be careful, the built-in radar has detected something. There are three people approaching you. It is correct not to reveal your wealth. The food expenses of your one silver coin just now obviously attracted some thieves, and one of them has a deadly weapon."

Wende turned around, and sure enough, he saw three guys who had been following him all the time. They were also dressed in rags, but they had gang marks on them.

I don't know what it's called, but I must make a living by robbing houses anyway.

After realizing that Wende had discovered their stalking, he had no intention of continuing to dodge. Anyway, they were all in a dark alley now, and robbery was too common.

A guy who can get a silver coin after a meal must be very rich.

They rushed over without hesitation, but these guys ignored a problem.

Someone who can casually pick up a silver coin is absolutely impossible to be something simple.

He easily grabbed the arm of the man holding the dagger, folded it, lifted it, and then fell over his shoulder.

While throwing him down, he took the dagger out of his hand.

The rusty steel dagger is not even good for cutting vegetables, but well, it must be rushing to kill Wende, so there is no need to show mercy.

And the clothes I wear are too distinctive, once these people are let go, it may cause a lot of trouble in the future.

Holding the dagger backwards, he fell to his knees and stabbed the fallen gang member twice in the neck, piercing through two arteries respectively.

Before the blood splashed on Wende's body, he had already stood up and made a fighting posture towards the two remaining gang members in front of him.

Both of them were frightened, their legs were weak, and they had already forgotten how to escape.

What they encountered this time was not some rich aristocrats and rich second generations, but a terrifying existence that could once tear apart demons.

　The content of this volume is roughly like this.

　　With the background of Warhammer 40k as the backbone, the gameplay and stories of the stars as the branches, and the plots of StarCraft, Cowboy Bebop and Homeland as the leaves.

　　In this way, the entire plot tree is constructed.
