Happy people from Blue Star

Chapter 770 The Sun Has Fallen for 3 Years

The town gate opened and several shivering humans walked out.

The leader was an old man, very skinny, with almost no flesh on his face, almost unrecognizable.

He looked at Hadi with a look of surprise on his face: "Sir, are you a member of the royal family from the Rida family?"

Hadi was stunned. Lida?

This is really a devil world!

But what about the surrounding trees?

"Why do you think I'm from the Rida family?" Hardy asked curiously.

"Three years ago, before I officially retired from the army, I participated in a battle led by the king and witnessed his swordsmanship." The old man looked Hadi up and down. "It's exactly the same as yours, full of power and beauty."

Hardy smiled. It was indeed the Fire Phoenix Sword Technique he used just now.

After all, this set of swordsmanship is the most useful in human form.

"But I am not from the Rida family."

The old man didn't quite believe it, but he didn't continue to dwell on it. Instead, he asked, "May I ask your name?"

"Hardy."

"Mr. Hardy, thank you very much for helping us defeat these evil lizardmen. Please let us thank you and prepare a sumptuous dinner for you as a token of our appreciation."

Hardy nodded. He also wanted to gather some information here.

Following the others into the town, he saw many townspeople standing on the roadside.

But everyone's clothes were ragged, and everyone was wearing patched clothes.

In contrast, Hardy was dressed in gorgeous black clothes and had fair skin. It was obvious that he was a child from a precious family.

The town was full of low stone buildings. Hardy followed the old man to a relatively large house.

It was dark inside, but soon the old man had someone light some hay in the fireplace.

With the firelight, the room finally became a little brighter.

"Mr. Hadi, please wait a moment. I have asked someone to prepare food." The old man asked Hadi to sit down, and then he sat down himself and continued, "Mr. Hadi, you are here to collect taxes, right?"

Collect taxes?

Hardy shook his head.

The old man breathed a sigh of relief: "That's good, that's good. We will be able to collect the tax soon and will definitely not default on it. Give us some more time."

"Old man, where is this?"

The old man looked at Hardy: "Fachi Town."

He paused and said, "I am the mayor of this town, Mekron."

At this time, old man Moklang's expression was a little strange.

Hardy didn't explain anything, just smiled.

At this time, an aunt came over and put two portions of batter in front of Hardy and the old man.

"Please enjoy your meal, Mr. Hardy." The old man chuckled.

Even though there was only one bowl of batter, Hardy didn't care.

This stuff is filling and the portion is quite filling.

Neither of them spoke. Hardy drank the batter slowly, in a very normal way.

The taste of the batter was just average, even a bit musty.

Hardy just thought it was edible.

The old man opposite was intoxicated and happy when he was drinking the batter.

Do you like eating pasta so much?
Or is food precious?
Soon, Hardy finished the batter, but most of the batter was still in the old man's bowl.

Hadi put down his bowl and spoon and asked, "Old man, where is the hotel here? I want to find a place to stay."

"After you go out, turn right and you will see it." The old man, Moklang, raised his head and said, "How about you stay at my house?"

"No, you're very polite." Hardy stood up. "The batter is delicious. Thank you for your hospitality."

The old man also stood up immediately: "From what you said, we should be thanking you. If it weren't for you, the lizardmen would have killed us all."

"I'm going to rest first." Hardy waved his hand.

"Have a nice trip." Moklan bowed slightly.

Coming out of the old man's house, Hardy walked on the dark streets. There were no lights in the whole town, and there were not even many people on the streets.

Hardy stopped in front of a two-story house with a hotel sign on it, but the hotel was closed.

Hardy went forward and knocked twice, and soon someone opened the door.

"What is it..." The person who opened the door was a little girl, who looked less than ten years old. She was stunned when she saw Hardy, and her words became stammering: "Sir..., do you have... anything to say?"

Not to mention Hardy's succubus-like appearance, just the clothes and temperament alone are enough to make all the young people in the town beat.

"I want to stay in a hotel." Hardy smiled.

The little girl was also dressed in rags. Her clothes were too small, her pants were too short, and she didn't have any shoes.

The little feet seemed to be turning blue from the cold ground.

"Oh...ah?" The little girl looked at Hardy and asked in surprise, "You...really going to stay in the hotel?"

"Correct."

"Three coppers a day."

Hadi happened to have some copper coins on him, so he took out nine of them and said, "I'm going to stay for three days."

The little girl took the copper coin, looked at it, and said timidly: "Sir, I have never seen these...copper coins before. Are they...fake?"

fake?

Yes, this place may not accept common copper coins.

Hadi looked at the little girl and saw that she looked pale and thin. He asked, "Do you accept food as currency here?"

"Yes!" The little girl nodded repeatedly, her eyes full of anticipation.

"Those three pieces of jerky!" Hardy took out dry food from the system backpack.

Even in the human world, the price of a piece of jerky is not low.

It should be enough to pay for the hotel.

The little girl's eyes turned green when she looked at the three pieces of jerky in Hardy's hand.

She licked her lips subconsciously, and then said, "Sir, please wait a moment. I will go and call my father over."

Then she ran away immediately.

Not long after, a middle-aged man trotted over.

The other person also had a pale face. When he rushed over, he saw the jerky in Hardy's hand at first sight.

Then he immediately walked to the gate, looked outside, and seeing that no one was paying attention here, he immediately closed the door.

The room fell into darkness, but then the man took out a long, vine-like plant and lit it.

He looked at the jerky in Hadi's hand, licked his lips, and said, "Sir, the price you gave is too high. One piece of jerky is enough for you to live for ten days."

Hadi narrowed his eyes slightly: "When did the price of jerky rise to this level?"

"The sun has fallen for three years. Even batter has become a luxury, not to mention jerky!" The man looked at Hadi and said, "If you want to stay for a month, I can only accept three servings of jerky."

Hadi put away the two portions of jerky and handed over the remaining piece: "I'll stay for ten days."

"Okay!" The middle-aged man carefully took the jerky and said gratefully, "Thank you for your reward, sir."

Hardy nodded slightly.

The little girl then took Hardy to a room on the second floor.

Then handed him the key.

Hardy opened the door and entered the room.

The room is clean and simple.

Apart from a bed and bedding, there was only a wardrobe and a table.

Hardy ignored these little things, his mind was shocked by the middle-aged man's words.

The sun has set for three years!

He knew where this was.

The demon world was at its most chaotic time countless years ago.
